Chapter 223
After they left, the receptionist spat and stared at Ji Wanmei's slender and graceful back, saying with no small amount of jealousy, "Who does she think she is, daring to cause trouble in a state-run shopping mall!"
The hostess didn't recognize Ji Wanmei; she was also from out of town.
I've only been working here for six months. I have a decent figure, and after graduating from junior high school, I was unwilling to marry a farmer in the countryside, so my family asked an acquaintance to introduce me to this job.
Being a greeter is usually quite easy, but you have to stand in high heels all day long, and your feet get really sore.
Girls from the countryside, when they went to state-run shopping malls, only saw those from relatively well-off families in the county town who could afford to shop there.
I was immediately captivated.
But those customers were all there with their families to buy things, not to go on blind dates.
When I entered the mall, the way I looked at the greeter at the entrance was no different than how I would look at a potted plant.
So, the hostess set her sights on Liu Yang, who was in charge of logistics.
After several conversations, the hostess learned that Liu Yang seemed to already have a blind date, which made her very unwilling.
In the six months since this girl came, Ji Wanmei has gone to university in the provincial capital and doesn't come back often. When she does come back, she mainly stays at home with her father.
So when the out-of-town receptionist saw Ji Wanmei and Luo Chunyan coming to see Liu Yang together, she thought that Ji Wanmei was just another woman who wanted to curry favor with Manager Liu because she was pretty.
Just like Luo Chunyan!
She had actually met Luo Chunyan twice before, but she pretended not to know her just now, just to embarrass her.
In their shopping mall, there are plenty of people who like Manager Liu and want to date him.
Manager Liu is so young and promising, and he's also more handsome than other men. He's witty and humorous. Talking to him makes me feel like a clueless country bumpkin. I admire him so much.
With such a capable manager like Manager Liu, why would he choose Luo Chunyan?
It's all because she works as a shop assistant in a store on some street corner.
Are the shop assistants any more noble than a greeter?
Besides, she was a greeter in a state-owned department store, while Luo Chunyan was just a shop assistant in a private store. It's hard to say who was superior to whom.
And Liu Yang, during his relationship with Luo Chunyan, certainly didn't stay idle.
He would flirt with the female sales clerks in the mall from time to time, including this new greeter.
Dealing with women is a piece of cake for Liu Yang, a natural-born womanizer and seasoned veteran, let alone a naive young girl from the countryside.
It's clear that, captivated by his charm, the hostess quickly developed feelings for Liu Yang.
Liu Yang thought that if he tried harder and used sweet talk to win her over, he might be able to get her.
Women who are vain and want to climb the social ladder by relying on men are the easiest to get.
Moreover, once you get your hands on it, it's very easy to get rid of.
Liu Yang is the logistics supervisor; he can easily dismiss a lowly greeter with any excuse.
When the time comes, Liu Yang will wipe his hands of the matter and be seen as a clean, honest, and ambitious young man again, with no one knowing what he did.
However, Luo Chunyan was not easy to coax.
It seems that, having traveled to other places and broadened his horizons, and having friends of Ji Wanmei's caliber around him, Liu Yang could clearly sense that Luo Chunyan's attitude towards him was not as enthusiastic as that of other women.
She always maintained a high and mighty attitude in front of him.
He would often ask her out several times before she would reluctantly agree to meet him.
This actually made Liu Yang very unhappy.
From their blind date to their first meal together, Luo Chunyan would often tell him with great pride that Ji Wanmei was her good friend.
Ji Wanmei trusted her completely, entrusting her with the management of the store. She recounted how the two of them went to Zhejiang to purchase goods, how prosperous Zhejiang was, and so on.
These boastful claims about his abilities are usually things Liu Yang uses on other women when he's trying to pick them up.
Liu Yang often watched Luo Chunyan boast in front of him with a half-smile, and then praised her enthusiastically, making Luo Chunyan feel that he was a very knowledgeable, witty and humorous man.
Little did Liu Yang know, he was only thinking it to himself with a dismissive attitude.
If it weren't for Ji Wanmei's shop, who the hell would know you, Luo Chunyan?
Liu Yang, a warehouse manager of a state-owned shopping mall, is young and earns a considerable income. In Pingquan County, he could find any woman he wanted.
Putting everything else aside, just in their shopping mall, there were several women staring at him longingly.
However, we still need to appease her for now.
After all, no matter how high the warehouse manager's salary is, it's not as much money as selling a few more valuable items.
Taking advantage of his position, Liu Yang was able to easily obtain high-quality goods from the warehouse.
However, once you get your hands on something, it's not always easy to sell it.
He needed to turn the acquired goods into money without anyone noticing, so he had to find a channel for laundering the goods.
Luo Chunyan is the best candidate.
The shop wasn't hers; it belonged to her friend, but she had absolute control over it because Ji Wanmei rarely returned to Pingquan County.
And this store just happens to sell women's toys.
In their state-run department stores, women's handbags, leather shoes, and even things like face cream are easy to get.
As long as he can gain Luo Chunyan's trust, Ji Wanmei's shop will become his best way to monetize his business.
