Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 229: Chapter 242: That Look Again

”Shanshan, what do you think of that down jacket? You would look really beautiful in it.”

”It’s not bad. Sales assistant, please wrap this down jacket up for me.”

An Ran turned her head and saw two gorgeously dressed, impeccably made-up girls staring at the down jacket in her hand, talking to the sales assistant.

The sales assistant looked troubled and tentatively asked, ”Miss, are you going to buy this down jacket? If not, could you please give it back to me so I can wrap it up for this lady?”

An Ran looked at the jacket in her hand and then glanced around the store before asking, ”Isn’t there another one of this style?”

”No, miss. All our boutique’s clothes are unique pieces, with only one of each style,” the sales assistant explained patiently.

An Ran gazed at the down jacket in her hand, reluctant to part with it. She had scoured the entire shop before spotting this one, not wanting to give it up just like that. Besides, she was the one who found it first, so shouldn’t there be some sort of first-come, first-served policy?

”Miss, I still need to try it on before deciding whether to buy it or not.”

”Then don’t waste any more time. Sales assistant, wrap it up for me now. I’ll take it,” Chen Shanshan stepped forward, looking An Ran up and down with a hint of disdain in her eyes.

It’s that look again. An Ran couldn’t understand why, even though she hadn’t provoked these people, they always looked at her with such eyes. Do these extravagantly dressed women have their manners eaten by dogs?

”I clearly took it first, why should I give it to you?” An Ran retorted, unwilling to comply.

”Why? Because our Shanshan is the Chen Family’s eldest daughter. And what difference would it make if you tried it on? With your shabby appearance, can you even afford clothes from this brand? I bet you don’t even know the price of this jacket,”

Ji Jie, standing next to Chen Shanshan, looked at An Ran’s somewhat old outfit with a sneer.

The clothes An Ran was wearing were bought the previous year and were not from any high-end brand. Among these racks of new high-end clothes, she did look rather shabby.

Hearing Ji Jie’s words, An Ran then noticed the price tag on the jacket.

She had seen An Sijia wear clothes from this brand before, but she hadn’t realized how expensive it was. The seemingly ordinary down jacket was priced at 80,000 yuan.

Seeing that long string of zeros after the number, An Ran felt a bit panicked. Her entire savings only amounted to 60,000 yuan.

Chen Shanshan didn’t miss the fleeting look of panic in An Ran’s eyes and sneered coldly, ”If you can’t afford it, then let it go. Don’t affect the store’s business. Some people are really something else, daring to wander around in such high-end malls without even checking if they belong here.”

Chen Shanshan then looked at the sales assistant, ”You sales assistants should open your eyes. Don’t let just anyone try on clothes. If the clothes get dirty and affect sales, you’ll be held responsible.”

The sales assistant’s face paled a bit. If a customer dirtied the clothes and then refused to buy them, it would indeed be their responsibility. Moreover, their income depended on commissions from sales. An Ran’s inability to buy the clothes but still holding onto them and stopping others from buying was affecting their earnings.

Thinking this, the two sales assistants also began to look at An Ran with a hint of contempt and resentment in their eyes.

When Mu Xingfeng found An Ran, he saw several people surrounding her, glaring at her like wolves eyeing their prey, as if they wished they could skin her alive.

”Miss, if you can’t afford it, just let it go. Don’t affect our store’s business.”
