Chapter 13: Acting In Front of Guests

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In fact, one of the reasons behind the good business was the location of her mother’s shop. The only neighborhood in the town was built behind this street, so it could be said to be a gathering place for rich people. This was a prime location for her family’s shop.

If they had opened their shop in the poorer East District, no one would have patronized their shop. They would even think that they were scamming people.

Until noon, although many people came in to look at the clothes, no one bought them anymore. However, Wei Yan and Li Hai weren’t anxious.

Wei Yan wasn’t anxious because she knew that as long as the clothes they bought were of good quality, they wouldn’t have to worry about not being able to sell them.

Li Hai wasn’t anxious because when she ran the shop previously, there were days when she didn’t have any business for an entire day. Moreover, she had already earned a thousand yuan today, so even if she didn’t make any more money, she was happy.

After the two of them had a simple lunch and were about to welcome the afternoon guests, they saw Li Lin bring an unfamiliar woman to the shop.

After Li Lin entered the shop, her eyes were filled with shock. This shop clearly didn’t look like this yesterday.

However, when she thought of her goal today, Li Lin quickly put away her shocked expression and looked at the woman beside her, Zhou Yu.

“Zhou Yu, this is the shop I told you about. My cousin is a salesperson. Sigh, she’s really pitiful. Previously, when the factory laid people off, my cousin was one of them. Didn’t you say that the clothes I wore yesterday were beautiful? I bought them from her.”

As Li Lin spoke, she looked at Li Hai with a high and mighty attitude. “Cousin, I know it’s not easy for you to earn money by looking after the shop, so I brought you a customer today. Cousin, you have to take good care of my friend.”

Zhou Yu couldn’t tell what Li Lin was implying.

Zhou Yu came from a good family and had a high education level. Her husband was the chief of the police station and her parents had doted on her since she was young. She really thought that Li Lin had kind intentions and was taking care of her cousin’s business, so she immediately smiled and said, “Yes, I saw that the clothes Li Lin wore yesterday were very nice, so I asked her where she bought them. Then, she brought me here today.”

“The clothes in your shop are really beautiful.” As she spoke, Zhou Yu looked at the clothes around her. Just by looking at them, she was already tempted.

Her husband had a high salary. She was a reporter herself and also had a high salary, so she didn’t care much about the price.

When Li Hai found out that Wei Gang had cheated on her with Li Lin, she felt disgusted when she saw Li Lin again, so she really couldn’t bring herself to smile at Li Lin.

Wei Yan knew what her mother was thinking. She felt that Madam Zhou Yu didn’t seem to know, so she said, “Aunt Lin, that’s not what you said yesterday. You said that someone like me doesn’t have a future, so selling clothes is all I’m capable of. Why did you come here today to introduce business to us?”

“Speaking of which, this shop doesn’t belong to my mother. She’s only in charge of looking after the shop. Even if you introduce the business, we won’t earn much. It’s just that Aunt Lin, with your huge change in demeanor, I wonder if you were the same person who insulted us yesterday.”

When Zhou Yu heard this, she looked at Li Lin in surprise. “You said that about this child yesterday?”

Even though she had only met Wei Yan for the first time, Wei Yan looked nice and adorable, so Zhou Yu had a good impression of her.

In addition, she actually wasn’t very familiar with Li Lin. They only lived on the same floor in the neighborhood and saw each other occasionally.

If not for the fact that Li Lin was dressed very fashionably yesterday, she wouldn’t have spoken to her.

She didn’t expect to find out so much after coming to this shop today. At this moment, Zhou Yu thought that before she fully understood what type of person Li Lin was, she had to keep a distance from her.

Seeing that just a few words from Wei Yan made Zhou Yu keep a distance from her, Li Lin was a little anxious. She couldn’t help but glare at Wei Yan. “Stupid girl, what are you talking about? When did I insult you? Do you have any manners at all?!”

Seeing this, Wei Yan deliberately revealed a fearful expression. “Auntie Lin, don’t scold me. I… I just couldn’t help it.”
