Chapter 578 How dare you, a businesswoman, be so worthy!

Xing Xing sighed, "Could it be that Zhou Yunyi found Sister Gong to be the best after all the twists and turns, so he's here to pester her again?"

Gong Qingniang frowned and complained, "Who knows what that guy is thinking? He has ruined my appetite. I think he is not trying to get back with me. He is probably out of money and wants to take advantage of me, a rich man!"

Xing Xing and Gong Qingniang were laughing on the couch: "Sister Gong, how can anyone say that he or she is a wealthy dog ​​owner? Hahahaha."

The two girls laughed for a long time, and Xing Xing patted her purse again: "Sister Gong, before I came here, my second brother knew that I was coming to visit you, and he gave me some banknotes. He was afraid that you would be bored at home sewing your wedding dowry, so he asked me to take you out for a walk to relax."

Xing Xing sighed, "I don't want to buy it, but my second brother is afraid that my future second sister-in-law will not be satisfied with it."

Gong Qingniang tried hard to hold back her laughter: "It turns out that your second brother is the rich dog owner!"

Xingxing and Gong Qingniang went out hand in hand. Xingxing was planning to buy a few hairpins for daily wear, so the two of them went to the Jinxiu Silver Shop.

Thanks to its high-quality workmanship and novel and outstanding design, the business of this Jinxiu Silver Shop in the capital has been booming in recent days.

But few people know that this is actually a business under the name of the Yu family.

When Xingxing and Gong Qingniang went there, they just like any other customers, comparing and choosing according to the waiter's introduction.

Gong Qingniang took a fancy to a water-sinking ebony hairpin, the head of which was carved into the shape of a brocade carp playing with lotus. The material was solid and the carving was lifelike. It felt particularly textured in the hand and had a light and rich fragrance.

The clerk hurriedly introduced: "Oh, Miss, you have a good eye. This hairpin is a new product from our jewelry store. There is only one of it. It is made of the ebony wood from the Laojun Pond in Qingzhou. It is extremely valuable..."

Gong Qingniang couldn't let it go. Xingxing was the boss, so she didn't have to pay for things in her own silver shop. She winked at the shopkeeper, who understood and made a "don't worry" gesture with his hand.

"The hairpin in her hand is nice. Give me one too."

A young lady pointed at the ebony hairpin in Gong Qingniang's hand and showed her delight.

The waiter quickly informed: "... My dear guest, I am very sorry, but we only have this one of our series of ebony hairpins."

When the young lady heard that there was only this one, she became even more excited and discussed with Gong Qingniang: "My dear, I really like this hairpin and plan to give it to my mother as a birthday present. Can you give it to me?"

Although the young lady's request was a little rude, she was at least serious about negotiating, so Gong Qingniang also intended to reject her in a friendly manner. However, before she could say this, someone next to the young lady sneered: "Ayue, what are you talking to this merchant? If you want it, just take it directly."

The lady named "Ayue" showed some hesitation on her face.

Gong Qingniang glanced at the person who was talking, revealing a look of obvious disgust. She turned her head and whispered to Xingxing, "The person who is talking now is Wang Jiajia's close friend, Deng Xingqiong. In the past, he was so domineering together with Wang Jiajia that it is unclear whether it is Wang Jiajia or this person who married into the Weibei Marquis's mansion as the young lady."

Xingxing nodded. So that's how it was.

No wonder this guy named Deng Xingqiong looks like his eyes aren’t eyes and his nose isn’t a nose to Sister Gong.

Deng Xingqiong saw Gong Qingniang whispering to Xingxing and ignored her. He immediately became more and more angry and took another step forward: "Gong Qingniang, you are a merchant girl. Even if you wear a lot of gems and jade, others will think you are vulgar. This ebony hairpin will only make your appearance look bad. If you know what's good for you, give it to Ah Yue quickly!"

The lady named A Yue looked straight at Gong Qingniang.

Gong Qingniang sneered: "Don't you understand that first come, first served?"

"How dare you, a business woman, do that!" Deng Xingqiong actually went straight to snatch it away!

Xing Xing stretched out her arms and stood between Gong Qingniang and Deng Xingqiong: "We have already bought this hairpin!"

The lady named Ayue looked puzzled: "When did you buy it? I have been watching you since she picked up the hairpin, and you clearly didn't pay for it."

Deng Xingqiong squinted her eyes and looked at Xingxing. From the hairpin on Xingxing's head to the clothes on her body, she found that she couldn't even tell what material Xingxing's clothes were made of. She could only tell that they were definitely extraordinary items!

Deng Xingqiong's tone was slightly more restrained: "Whose family are you from? Judging from your clothes, you don't look like you come from a poor family. How can you lie so openly?"

Xing Xing had no good feelings towards this Deng Xingqiong. She calmly asked back, "What does it have to do with you where I come from? Who said I lied with my eyes open? When buying things, don't you consider the first come first served order? Do you also consider the social status of the person?"

Deng Xingqiong was unsure of Xingxing's approach. Although his face turned red at Xingxing's words, he just said "You!" and that was all.

From this we can also see that Deng Xingqiong is a person who tends to take advantage of the powerful and bullies the weak and fears the strong.

However, just because Deng Xingqiong didn't dare to provoke Xingxing didn't mean she didn't dare to bully Gong Qingniang.

She hit a wall with Xingxing, and she didn't dare to hate Xingxing, but she blamed Gong Qingniang. Deng Xingqiong's eyes widened, and she scolded Gong Qingniang: "You are a business woman, be sensible and put the things down!... You are so shameless, no wonder Mr. Zhou avoids you like a snake! I would rather be punished by my family than break off the engagement with you!"

If these words were said to someone else, it would be a vicious slap in the face.

However, Gong Qingniang and Zhou Yunyi broke off their engagement. Gong Qingniang was fully willing to do so and was not unhappy at all. Naturally, she would not think that Deng Xingqiong's words were insulting, and she even found them somewhat funny.

If Deng Xingqiong knew that Zhou Yunyi had gone to her house and flirted with her under the influence of alcohol more than half an hour ago, how would she react?

And as for that mess between Wang Jiajia and Zhou Yunyi, wouldn't any prominent family in Beijing sneer at it when it was mentioned?

Deng Xingqiong really has the nerve to bring this up!

"You said Zhou Yunyi broke off the engagement with me?" Gong Qingniang smiled, not taking Deng Xingqiong's fighting ability into consideration at all. "That must be the blessing I got from doing good deeds at the orphanage every day. It shows that God still loves me."

He acted like he treated Zhou Yunyi like trash.

Deng Xingqiong was furious and shouted for the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper came over immediately. He was obviously acquainted with Deng Xingqiong. He said with a smile, "What can I do for you, Miss Deng?"

Deng Xingqiong glanced at Gong Qingniang, and with a hint of pride, he said to the shopkeeper in an imperative tone, "Give me that ebony hairpin! I want it!"
