Chapter 56 Nonsense
"this……"
The round-faced girl looked on in surprise, "Auntie, are you sure?"
"Confirmed." Li Banxia nodded.
The round-faced girl hesitated for a moment, glanced at the VIP room not far away, and smiled as she invited Li Banxia to come with her.
"Hey, where are you taking him?"
The woman stopped the round-faced girl, glanced at Li Banxia, and made no attempt to hide her disdain for Li Banxia.
"Don't be fooled by her. This person is obviously here to freeload. Are you really going to treat her like a VIP?"
The round-faced girl frowned, "Don't talk to an older woman like that..."
How should I say it?
The woman curled her lip. "The pastries inside are so expensive. They're specially prepared for customers who buy large amounts of government vouchers. You're giving them to a poor old lady like you. What are we going to serve when VIPs come?"
Her words caused the others' expressions to change slightly.
Someone chimed in, "Yes, ma'am, please stop making things worse. We can't give you those pastries."
"To do something like this for two pieces of pastry, you must be crazy with greed."
"Which kid is so greedy? Wait, who leaked this information?"
"Yeah, it's so annoying..."
The group chattered incessantly.
Seeing Li Banxia still standing there, the woman frowned and shooed her away with disdain, "Auntie, why aren't you leaving yet? Do you have to say things outright... You should leave now. Look at your shabby appearance. If you're affecting other people's business, can you afford to compensate them?"
Li Banxia frowned.
"You can't judge a book by its cover. How can you label this old lady as poor just because of her clothes? That's so disrespectful." The round-faced girl was a little indignant and stepped forward to speak up for Li Banxia.
The woman glanced at her and then mocked her, "Since you're new here, let me teach you a lesson: respect the clothes before you respect the person. It's no wonder you're dressed like that. You're probably here for the pastries and gifts, betting that you're too shy to refuse and will give her something, no matter what."
Li Banxia sighed and asked the woman, "Young lady, is your family poor? Is that why you can only show off your superiority by mocking others?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, and after realizing what Li Banxia meant, her face flushed red. "You!"
"Or is it that you're used to getting small advantages when you're doing things, which is why you're so familiar with these tricks?"
Li Banxia immediately followed up with another sentence.
The woman blushed, pursed her lips, and glared angrily at Li Banxia. "What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't do anything wrong. It's you old folks who are shameless..."
"Shen Yan!" the round-faced girl exclaimed, calling out to the female comrade.
The woman, a beat slow to realize what she had said, looked even more embarrassed and glared at Li Banxia.
Li Banxia glanced at her and shook her head. "Judging from your age, I'm about the same age as your parents. Your words are insulting your parents as well. Do your parents know that?"
"you……"
The woman's eyes widened in disbelief. "Why are you so persistent!"
Li Banxia looked at her helplessly.
"You look down on me like a dog, and it's one thing to point fingers and criticize me, but you even used foul language without a single apology. Why should I be kind enough to forgive you?"
The lesbian, "..."
Her face flushed red as she glared at Li Banxia.
The round-faced girl nudged her and whispered, "Why don't you apologize to her? You were definitely in the wrong first..."
"Why should I apologize? Does she even have the money? Ten thousand yuan? Why doesn't she just say she wants one hundred thousand yuan?" The woman retorted with a stiff neck and a light snort.
Li Banxia asked the round-faced girl, "Are there very few 10,000 yuan options?"
"Quite a few."
The round-faced girl shook her head. "Our bank bought 100,000 yuan worth of government bonds for us to sell. We get a commission based on the number of people sold, so everyone looks forward to coming as soon as we open the door... rich people."
The girl gave a somewhat embarrassed explanation.
"Do you think you can get anywhere talking to her?"
The woman scoffed, "Look at the question she asked, as if she really had ten thousand yuan in her hand."
“I do have it.” Li Banxia nodded.
The female employees looked at each other, and then at Li Banxia's clothes and appearance. No matter how they looked at her, they didn't think she looked like someone who was married.
"If you can come up with ten thousand yuan to buy a voucher, I can buy all the pastries meant for VIPs and give them to you." The woman raised her chin slightly, looking down at Li Banxia with an air of superiority.
Li Banxia, "..."
She nodded, "Sure, I have no problem with that. The problem is, can you make the decision? Why don't you go and find your manager to be a witness? Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to get the pastries out of the vouchers later."
The group of people looked at each other in silence.
Someone coughed lightly and gave a dry laugh, "Heh, this old lady is quite outspoken."
"Go ahead and shout! I'll see who gets embarrassed later."
The woman tossed her head and called out loudly inside, "Manager, someone wants to buy 10,000 yuan worth of 100-yuan national coupons, come out and take a look..."
"What?!"
A delighted voice came from inside, "Hurry up and invite them to the VIP room! Serve them tea..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man jogged out, looked around, and asked the woman, "Where is everyone?"
"There." The woman gestured with her chin toward Li Banxia.
The manager looked over, glanced at Li Banxia's attire, and paused for a moment.
The woman curled her lip, her eyes full of mockery. "This old lady came for the pastries in our VIP room. We politely asked her to leave, but she argued with us, saying that if we gave her all the pastries, she would only buy 10,000 yuan worth of 100-yuan national coupons. With her outfit, don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"Nonsense!"
The manager glared at the woman, then looked at the others and asked, "Whose relative is this?"
Several people shook their heads, indicating they did not recognize the person.
The manager frowned and waved his hand. "Alright, everyone go make calls to contact people. What time is it? You still have time to waste here? If we don't sell, nobody will get a bonus this quarter."
"ah?"
Several people wailed in despair.
The manager glanced at Li Banxia, his brows furrowing even more. "Auntie, we're about to start work. Don't bother us. No matter who told you, we can't give you these pastries. If you really want some, you can try other banks..."
The manager glanced outside, spotted a familiar face, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
He casually pointed over there, dismissing him like a beggar, saying, "Look, that person works at another bank. They must have pastries there. Go find him."
After saying that, he raised his voice and called out to the person.
"Old Tao, this lady wants to buy 10,000 yuan worth of 100-yuan national banknotes. Does your bank want them?"
