Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xia Ling was at a loss for words.
She was really not qualified. How could she obstruct someone from buying the clothes they wanted?
However, she could not let this go easily. If she really bought these suggestive clothes to wear in front of Li Lei, what did it say about her position in Nangong Qingya’s and Li Lei’s eyes? She took out her phone with the intention of calling Li Lei to clarify matters. However, she suddenly remembered that in the dark container that night, he took advantage of her...
So far, he had not even called her once to apologize.
Why should she give in first?!
She put her phone back and looked at the fishnet suit in Nangong Qingya’s hands. Its red rosy color looked like it was mocking her for overestimating herself.
Suddenly, she felt dispirited.
She turned around to walk out but heard Nangong Qingya calling after her. “Why, planning to leave now? If you can’t afford it, then don’t come in to look. You should really think about what your worth is!”
From the time they bumped into each other, Nangong Qingya kept talking about their difference in social class, so Xia Ling couldn’t help but feel a little irritated. These people were trying to use their status of being part of a rich family to bully her. What was so impressive about basking in the shade of their parents? She took out her credit card and slammed it on the checkout counter. “I want that.”
She was referring to the item that Nangong Qingya had in her hands.
At first, Nangong Qingya was startled. Then, she smiled disdainfully. “Do you think that I won’t be able to give up this treasure and let you have it rightfully without paying? Here, have it.” She tossed the fishnet suit to Xia Ling like she was throwing away rubbish.
Xia Ling avoided it, and it fell to the ground.
“Oh no, this is the latest limited edition piece from this season! There are only 10 pieces in the world!” The staff rushed to pick it up. She was extremely distressed. What should she do if such an expensive piece of clothing was dirtied?
Nangong Qingya continued to smile. “Aren’t you going to wrap it up for Miss Ye?” She was from an eminent family and was usually self-important. She had already sworn not to sleep with anyone unless she encountered real love. Thus, she was still a virgin. How would she know what sort of underwear to wear to seduce him?
The only reason why she wanted to buy this rose-red fishnet suit was that the staff said that this was the most expensive and sought after item. It was also available in limited quantities in the world and was studded with diamonds.
The price was six figures.
The staff member carefully reported the price to Xia Ling.
Xia Ling’s heart hurt as money did not come easily to her. She couldn’t believe that such an ugly piece of underwear that she would never wear was so expensive. However, despite the pain in her heart, she couldn’t appear weak on the surface. She calmly said to the staff, “Take my card.”
The staff swiped her card and said, “I will help you wrap your clothes up.”
“No need.” Xia Ling said, “These clothes can’t even be used as rags. Only a person like Miss Nangong who has a taste which is contrary to ordinary people will like it. You can throw this piece of clothing in the trash.”
“What?” The staff was stunned.
Those who had seen a battle of wealth rarely saw it taking place in an underwear store.
However, the customer was always right. With the principle of serving customers well, the staff endured heartbreak and threw the fishnet suit that was originally placed in the best cabinet of the store into the trash can.
Nangong Qingya’s elegant expression was slightly distorted. How dare this Ye Xingling mock her like that!
Bam! She slammed her card down on the table and pointed to more than a dozen of the most expensive clothes in the store. “This, this, and this... I want them all. Miss Ye, do you still have money to compete with me?”
This was pure provocation.
Logic told Xia Ling that there was no advantage in fighting with his woman, but she was really angry. She decided that life was short, and the rush of happiness after seeking her revenge was worth it!
“I want them!” Xia Ling gritted her teeth. “I want all of them!” She learned from Nangong Qingya and pointed at many of the clothes that Nangong Qingya wanted to buy. “Does Miss Nangong want to buy these? It can’t be that she can’t afford them, right?”
Nangong Qingya smiled calmly without blinking. “Of course. I’ll buy them all.”
What a joke. Why was this stupid woman trying to prove who was richer? She was the eldest daughter of the Nangong Family. Why would she be afraid of a commoner female artiste?
With this thought, she smiled more delightedly and pointed at more clothes for Xia Ling.
At this time, Xia Ling felt that things were becoming difficult. At this rate, she would definitely lose. She gritted her teeth and sneered as Nangong Qingya chose a pile of clothes for her and pointed at the remaining clothes for Nangong Qingya. “It’s just a shop. I’m sure Miss Nangong can afford it, right?”
Nangong Qingya was smart and quickly guessed Xia Ling’s intentions. With a faint smile, she said, “Of course, I can afford it. However, I’m more curious about whether Miss Ye can afford it.”
“What can’t I buy?” Xia Ling said faintly. “Miss Nangong, you don’t have to encourage me to do something by criticizing my ability. It’s your turn to buy your clothes.”
“If I buy them, how will I know if Miss Ye can afford them?” Nangong Qingya was not fooled. She deliberately wanted to see Xia Ling get humiliated. “This time, I won’t fight with Miss Ye anymore. You can buy them.”
Xia Ling replied, “Miss Nangong, are you admitting your loss?”
Nangong Qingya raised an eyebrow. “How am I admitting my loss?”
“If you aren’t buying them, doesn’t that mean that you’ve lost?”
Seeing that there was a stalemate, the staff did not wish for the scene to become bigger. She quickly persuaded them otherwise. “Both of you have bought many things today. How about this? I will give both of you VIP cards for this store. In the future...”
“It seems that it can only be like this.” Xia Ling tried to stop while she still could.
However, Nangong Qingya was certain that Xia Ling didn’t have enough money. She said, “Miss Ye, you aren’t planning to admit defeat, right? How about this. Since both of us can afford it, let’s have an auction. The highest bidder will be the winner.”
She quoted a price which was double the price of the clothes there.
Xia Ling’s heart skipped a beat. This woman was really vicious! If she were really just a common artiste, she would probably be humiliated. She would have exceeded her credit card limit and not be able to pay back her debt. Luckily, she still had a brother who just gave her a card.
She took the card out and gave it to the staff. “Help me check how much money I have in this.”
The staff couldn’t stop her, so she could only follow her orders. The young female staff drew a cold breath as she tried to do a check. “Oh god...”
“What’s wrong?” Xia Ling asked.
“I’m really... sorry.” The staff was a little nervous. “Let me try again with another card machine. I don’t know if this one is spoiled.” She hurriedly tried again with another machine.
Listening to the staff, Nangong Qingya chuckled. “This can’t be a fake card, right? Ye Xingling, your credit card limit is not enough, and you’re trying to use this fake card for more money?”
