Chapter 553: Slap After Slap
Mrs. Mu didn’t give Gu Xuexue face at all. “Who said that?! I like this pair of earrings. Of course, I have to buy them!”
Gu Xuexue went out for wool but came back shorn. After being pushed away by Mrs. Mu, she looked embarra.s.sed.
But she didn’t expect that what came next would be even more embarra.s.sing.
Yang Xiaolan didn’t give Mrs. Mu the bill like she asked for.
Instead, she put the earrings into an exquisite jewelry box and handed it to the interested diplomat’s wife next to her. “Madam, only you have the right to enjoy the beautiful jade that a n.o.ble consort uses. Also, you’re especially fated with it. After drinking the tea just now, your face is the most rosy. This means that it’s most suitable for your aura.”
“Really? That’s good.”
The diplomat’s wife was very surprised. She had wanted to buy them, but these earrings were a limited edition. There was only one pair. She also held her status and couldn’t bring herself to s.n.a.t.c.h them from that vulgar Mrs. Mu.
Yang Xiaolan taking the initiative to ask her to buy it was simply too much to her liking.
Wasn’t this the same as handing over a pillow when one was sleepy? This young lady was very perceptive. Not bad, not bad.
The n.o.blewomen around her nodded. They were convinced that the earrings belonged to the diplomat’s wife. After all, this person’s status was the most valuable.
Mrs. Mu was about to explode from anger. She couldn’t flare up at the Madam Diplomat and could only scold Yang Xiaolan. “Stupid girl, on what basis can you sell it to whoever you want?”
Yang Xiaolan said neither servile nor overbearing, “Mrs. Mu, you don’t understand jade. Jade stones emphasize a lot on fate. You’re not fated with this Qinghai Soft Jade. You can’t force it.”
“Who said that there’s no fate? I was clearly the first to take a fancy to it! This jade is also suitable for my symptoms of getting angry!”
“Oh, Mrs. Mu, this jade is to extinguish the heatiness in your lungs, not anger”
“I have heatiness too…”
“The fire you have came from your own brain. It can’t be extinguished by jade.”
Yang Xiaolan’s voice was gentle and her tone was calm.
But she had a determined strength that made Mrs. Mu speechless.
The n.o.blewomen beside her covered their mouths and laughed. The fire in her brain?
Hahahaha, Miss Xiaolan, are you mocking Mrs. Mu for being a moron?
Mrs. Mu was completely furious. The things that she couldn’t get were already making her anxious. Coupled with Gu Xuexue’s strange words, she fanned the flames. “Ah, the people at the counter are already so awesome now. They actually dare to contradict the customers. Mrs. Mu, your temper is too good, right? You’re already being bullied.”
Mrs. Mu lost face and roared at Yang Xiaolan, “Who do you think you are? Call your boss out!”
Although Yang Xiaolan was confident, she couldn’t withstand Mrs. Mu’s fierce “tigress” att.i.tude.
After being spat at by Mrs. Mu, she couldn’t help but take a step back. She staggered and nearly fell.
At this moment, her waist warmed. Gu Qiqi quickly supported her. “Be careful.”
Then, she raised her chin and said to Mrs. Mu in disdain, “You’re looking for the boss of Lan Ting, right?”
The way Gu Qiqi helped Yang Xiaolan up handsomely and stood up for her made Mrs. Mu nearly forget that the person in front of her—who was as beautiful as a painting—was a woman.
She paused for a while and then straightened her back. “That’s right! Get the boss to come out and apologize to me! I want to let the boss of Lanting fire this b*tch who contradicts her customers!”
Although the n.o.blewomen around her hated Mrs. Mu, they were also a little curious.
That’s right. Who was the owner of Lan Ting?
Which big chairman invested in it? It could actually cooperate with the Chu family?
A sly smile suddenly appeared on Gu Qiqi’s exquisite face. “Come, Xiaolan, tell her who your boss is.”
Yang Xiaolan pursed her lips.
That trace of timidity disappeared completely because Gu Qiqi supported her waist.
She gathered some courage and stared intently into Mrs. Mu’s eyes as she said word by word.
