The sales assistant was just passing by when Shang Ziyan suddenly grabbed her arm, and she was a little confused.
Seeing that the sales assistant didn't answer, Shang Ziyan became a little anxious, raised her voice, and asked again, "I'm asking you a question. Where is the boy who came with me earlier?"
The sales assistant heard clearly this time, but she had been getting goods from the warehouse and hadn't noticed this side, so she couldn't answer.
The sales assistant said, "I'm sorry, miss, I wasn't looking just now, and I don't know where that gentleman went..."
Before the sales assistant could finish speaking, Shang Ziyan exploded.
"How could we not notice? He was the only one in the store. What's wrong with you employees...?"
Shang Ziyan was getting anxious and forgot to maintain the facade she had created. Fortunately, the store manager passed by at that moment, and the sales assistant gave him a pleading look.
The store manager was very protective of his employee and immediately stepped forward to help, saying, "Miss, it's like this, Mr. Ling just took a phone call and went out to answer it. It was probably about work. He'll be back in a bit."
Upon hearing the store manager's words, Shang Ziyan remained silent, but the expression on her face did not diminish in the slightest.
Shang Ziyan gripped the sales assistant's arm so tightly that the assistant began to wince in pain.
The store manager was extremely anxious but didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, Shang Ziyan didn't hold on for long before letting go of the sales assistant's arm.
Shang Ziyan didn't speak, and her expression still looked rather bad.
She glanced outside the door but didn't see Ling Shen.
She was worried that Ling Shen had left, so she walked out of the store.
Knowing Shang Ziyan's intention, the shop assistant stepped forward and said, "Mr. Ling went to the left."
Shang Ziyan regained her composure, looked in the direction the shopkeeper pointed, adjusted her expression, smiled at the shopkeeper, and said, "Thank you."
After Shang Ziyan finished speaking, she walked in that direction.
The store manager returned a standard professional smile, watching Shang Ziyan walk in that direction.
The sales assistant, whose arm had been pinched, was a little unhappy. She rubbed her arm as she walked over and said to the store manager, "Manager, how could she be so rude?"
The store manager straightened up, sighed helplessly, and said, "Children from wealthy families are bound to be a little spoiled."
She's the store manager. Having worked in luxury stores for so many years, she's seen all kinds of people. Even when she was just a sales clerk, she was humiliated by some rich kids.
So this kind of thing is already commonplace.
But the sales assistant was young and didn't know these things. She pouted with some dissatisfaction, glanced in the direction Shang Ziyan left, and then lowered her voice to gossip to the store manager.
"She wasn't like this in front of Mr. Ling just now." The shopper curled her lip, somewhat disdainful of such behavior: "She's obedient and docile in front of Mr. Ling, but she's all bared her teeth and claws in front of us. It's really too much."
The store manager remained calm and didn't say anything.
The shopper couldn't help but ask again, "If Mr. Ling knew what her true nature was like, would he still be with her?"
Upon hearing this, the store manager chuckled softly, then turned and walked back into the store.
As the store manager walked, he said, "Do you really think rich people are all fools?"
The sales assistant was taken aback, not quite understanding what the store manager meant.
The sales assistant followed, somewhat bewildered, and asked, "What do you mean?"
The store manager was exasperated and turned to the sales assistant, saying, "If you lived in an idol drama, you would definitely be that stupid little character who gets killed by the villainous female supporting character. Don't you understand such a simple principle? How do you think Mr. Ling got to where he is today? Can't he even tell the difference between a girl and a man?"
The sales assistant understood immediately.
In fact, Ling Shen probably knew Shang Ziyan's true colors earlier than they did, but he didn't care, or rather, he pretended not to care.
The sales assistant glanced in the direction Shang Ziyan had left, curled her lip, and couldn't help but mutter, "Rich people really know how to have fun."
......
Following the direction the store manager indicated, Shang Ziyan walked for a short while until she reached a corner. Just as she was about to walk over, Ling Shen walked over from the other side of the corner.
The two of them happened to come face to face.
Shang Ziyan's expression was not good at first, but when she suddenly saw Ling Shen appear, she became a little flustered.
But Shang Ziyan quickly realized what was happening and smiled.
Ling Shen saw Shang Ziyan and asked with some confusion, "Why are you here?"
Shang Ziyan stood in front of Ling Shen, looked up at him, and said, "I thought you had left."
When Shang Ziyan said this, she slightly pursed her lips, looking pitiful.
Shang Ziyan deliberately acted pitiful in front of Ling Shen in order to gain his sympathy.
However, Ling Shen didn't seem to buy it. His expression remained indifferent. He glanced at Shang Ziyan and said, "I'll take this call from the company."
Shang Ziyan also noticed that Ling Shen didn't seem very interested, so she gave up.
Ling Shen looked Shang Ziyan up and down, and seeing that she had changed her clothes, he asked, "Have you changed your clothes?"
Shang Ziyan blinked and pursed her lips, saying, "Mmm."
Ling Shen didn't say anything, but walked straight back into the store. Shang Ziyan followed, thinking that Ling Shen wouldn't be satisfied with her clothes and would choose another one for her.
But to his surprise, when they arrived at the store, Ling Shen said to Shang Ziyan, "You look great in this outfit, so take it."
