Chapter 191 The Clothes-Buying Incident Uncovers a Shocking Secret!
After having lunch, Song Chi and Mu Yin went shopping at a nearby mall.
The two chatted and laughed as they walked, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
Song Chi's eyes lit up when he saw a shop selling cheongsams.
Before she could speak, Mu Yin understood her thoughts.
"Chichi, do you want to buy a cheongsam?"
"Uncle, I want to buy something for Mom. Let's go inside and take a look."
"OK."
Mu Yin pushed her wheelchair inside.
At the entrance stood a saleswoman with a sharp and mean face. When she saw Song Chi sitting in a wheelchair, she pouted in disgust. When she saw Mu Yin dressed plainly, her contempt was written all over her face.
Song Chi's gaze was fixed on the beautiful cheongsams on the shelf, oblivious to her expression.
Mu Yin naturally didn't even glance at her.
As soon as the two entered the shop, the shop assistant, Xiao Zhang, became listless and spoke mechanically.
"Just browsing around, feel free to try on anything you like..."
Song Chi nodded and strolled around casually with Mu Yin.
The various styles of cheongsams were all beautiful, leaving Song Chi dazzled.
She picked out a cheongsam that looked very luxurious and elegant.
She imagined that her mother-in-law, with her fair skin and good temperament, would look ten years younger and even more beautiful in this cheongsam.
Mu Yin kept his gaze fixed on her, understood her emotions, and asked.
"Chichi, do you like this?"
"Hmm, this retro cheongsam has a rich and elegant pattern, which suits Mom's temperament very well. However, I don't know Mom's size."
"I know, it is..."
Mu Yin told Cheng Shu her clothing size.
Song Chi smiled sweetly at him gratefully: "Uncle, thank you, I understand."
Mu Yin raised an eyebrow.
Song Chi looked at the shop assistant and said, "Miss, what size is this dress?"
The sales clerk casually replied, "Size M!"
"Great, please wrap it up for me."
When business comes in, the shop assistant should be happy, but she scrutinizes Song Chi instead.
"Are you sure this outfit was personally custom-made by our master tailor? There's only one like it in the whole country, and it's made with the finest materials. This outfit costs 88,000 yuan!"
Song Chi: "..."
A cheongsam for 88,000 yuan? That's outrageous!
She is used to saving money, and no matter what she buys, the price of any item will never exceed three hundred yuan.
However, this time she was sincerely giving a gift to her mother-in-law.
If it were a gift for someone else, she might be reluctant to part with it, but her mother-in-law is so good to her and works so hard to take care of her studio. Let alone 88,000 yuan, even if it were more expensive, it would be a worthwhile gift for her mother-in-law!
She said slowly, "Buy..."
However, the shop assistant's eyes lit up, as if he had seen a god of wealth.
She rushed to greet him, not hearing Song Chi's voice.
"Sister Li is here! New styles have arrived at the store, feel free to pick any you like."
Song Chi, who was being ignored, was somewhat speechless.
Mu Yin also frowned slightly.
That Ms. Li was a woman who looked to be around sixty years old. She was dressed in a very expensive outfit, wearing gold bracelets and gold bangles, and she looked like a rich woman.
Song Chi glanced at her indifferently, and suddenly felt that the woman in front of him looked familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before!
She was certain she didn't know the rich woman, but why did she feel a sense of familiarity?
"Really? I happen to have a banquet to attend in a couple of days. Bring me your new outfit so I can take a look. It has to be unique; I don't want to run into someone wearing the same thing at the banquet..."
"Alright, I'll introduce it to you now."
As the shop assistant spoke, she ushered Sister Li into the store.
The shop assistant's expression changed immediately when he passed by Song Chi and Mu Yin.
"Good dogs don't block the way, move aside!"
Song Chi: "..."
She laughed in exasperation. What kind of service was this?!
The shop assistant turned to look at Sister Li, and then put on a fawning smile.
"Sister Li, look, this dress is a new style. You'll definitely shine in it at the banquet, and you'll never see anyone else wearing the same thing!"
The shop assistant snatched the cheongsam from Song Chi's hands and showed it to Sister Li.
Song Chi was shocked: "Beautiful lady, I asked for that dress first!"
Upon hearing this, the shop assistant gave her a cold glance: "You haven't paid yet, and besides, can you even afford it..."
Song Chi wasn't angry at being looked down upon, but her attitude towards service ignited her anger.
She was about to speak.
Sister Li said, "I'll take this dress. Pack it up for me."
"Okay, Sister Li."
"etc!"
In a moment of panic, Song Chi reached out and snatched the dress away.
"Excuse me, ma'am, I was the one who first picked out this dress, and I was just about to pay for it. And you, as I just said, I wanted to buy it, but you snatched it from my hand. Your service is terrible!"
When Sister Li saw that her clothes had been taken away, her expression immediately turned ugly.
"Xiao Zhang, what's going on? Some penniless wretch is trying to steal my clothes? Get them back right now!"
"Sister Li, please wait a moment..."
As the shop assistant, Xiao Zhang, spoke, she reached out to snatch the clothes from Song Chi's hands.
Song Chi subconsciously hid his clothes behind his back.
Mu Yin immediately stepped in front of her, preventing the shop assistant from having any contact with her.
The shop assistant, enraged, shouted: "Hey, you two penniless bastards! Sister Li has her eye on this outfit, so hurry up and give it to her. Don't be ungrateful!"
"I was the one who liked the clothes first. Also, please go see an ophthalmologist. If you have any serious illness, then you should see a neurologist!"
"you……"
The shop assistant blushed after being rebuked by her words.
Song Chi was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore. This dress was outstanding in style and material, and he was sure his mother-in-law would like it. Song Chi was determined to buy it and give it to her!
She pulled out a card: "It's just 88,000, swipe the card!"
The shop assistant was incredulous. She looked so poor, could she really afford this cheongsam? What if she was just pretending to be rich and then couldn't pay the bill, and the wealthy Sister Li left, making her lose what she had almost gotten.
The shop assistant was certain that Song Chi was putting on a brave face.
Sister Li said angrily, "I want this outfit. I'll pay 100,000 yuan, and you can keep the extra as a tip. Xiao Zhang, grab the outfit from me."
Xiao Zhang's eyes lit up: "Great!"
Of course, she wouldn't offend her regular customers, so like an obedient dog, she pounced on Song Chi and tried to snatch the clothes.
Song Chi was speechless. How could there be such a thing as paying extra to snatch clothes?!
It looked like Xiao Zhang was about to pounce on Song Chi.
Mu Yin stood in front of her, protecting her tightly. At the same time, he looked coldly at the shop assistant and said sternly.
"Get out! You dare touch a single hair on her head!"
He had a powerful presence, and the shop assistant was so intimidated that he took a few steps back.
Sister Li crossed her arms and sneered, "Where did these two lunatics come from, daring to steal my clothes? Do you know who I am? I am the mother of the president of Zhang's Group. You've offended me, and you'll regret it. Hand over that outfit to me right now!"
Song Chi frowned: "Which Zhang Group?"
"Ha, how many Zhang Groups can there be in City A? My son is Zhang Yuqi, he's very powerful. Are you scared yet? Now give it to me..."
Upon hearing this, Song Chi and Mu Yin exchanged a glance.
The two of them thought of it in perfect unison...
What a coincidence!
I unexpectedly ran into the mother of a business partner.
So, in order to cooperate, she has to compromise?
Song Chi felt that the woman looked familiar, and he looked at her intently once again.
She asked tentatively, "Sister, do you have a daughter? What's her name?"
"Yes, her name is Zhang Wanru, and she's very capable. I'm warning you, you'd better not mess with me..."
Song Chi was struck dumb.
This woman's son is Zhang Yuqi, and her daughter is Zhang Wanru...
Only then did she realize that Zhang Yuqi and Zhang Wanru were actually siblings!
She recalled Zhang Wanru's underhanded tactics against her, and then she remembered Zhang Yuqi's initiative to seek cooperation with her. Suddenly, she felt a strong sense of unease...
