At first, Tang Xinluo did not think that the other party was talking to her.
When she saw detestation in the salesperson’s eyes, she could confirm that—yes—the other party was talking about her.
So, was she being ‘despised’ now?
Tang Xinluo suddenly found it funny and turned to the salesperson. “Are you new here? I remember that your shop’s customer service used to be very good. Since when did they become so careless in employing people?”
No matter how down-and-out Tang Xinluo was, she would not be bullied by a salesperson. Besides, she was Mrs. Lu in name. Even if it was not for the Tang family, she could not embarrass Mr. Lu outside.
“Hah, Ms. Tang, Ma’am, I think you should stop trying to act like a regular here. In the past, we served you well because of your identity as Ms. Tang. Now? Hah. Do you really think that other people would not know that you don’t have the money to buy the goods in our store?”
After being questioned on her customer service standards, she did not feel that she was in the wrong and had even looked down on Tang Xinluo.
In her eyes, Tang Xinluo was down-and-out; but she did not change her princess temper. Even if she could not buy anything, she still wanted to act superior in luxurious shops.
She did not know that her bit of gossip had traveled far and wide to everyone in A City.
Tang Xinluo was stumped by a salesperson and was naturally not happy, but her status did not allow her to quarrel with the other person right in the streets.
That way, she might be happy in a moment; but she would lose her status and reputation.
So she did not care much about this salesperson who was clearly too young and lacked social experience. Then, she turned to the counter and complained to a familiar manager.
After being slighted by a customer in the shop, the normal procedure would be to complain to the superiors.
However, when Tang Xinluo told the familiar manager of her intentions, the other party rolled her eyes at her.
“Ms. Tang, I’m not trying to scold you, but what’s the situation now? You shouldn’t act like a phoenix. If you were still Ms. Tang, the company would definitely stand up for you without hesitation and fire the salesperson. However, now, look…”
When she said this, the manager had even used a despising look to judge her.
“From top to toe, only your Brand H scarf is worth money. The cheapest item in our shop costs around the same as the scarf around your neck. Stop acting big; the only one who would lose face… is yourself.”
Tang Xinluo was talking to the manager in front of the counter so the other party only saw her upper body but could already guess the price of her outfit.
At first, Tang Xinluo was not really frustrated and just treated this as a small squabble when shopping. When she was insulted by the manager of this shop—if she did not explode in anger, she would be a saint.
She squinted her peach eyes and looked at the other party’s name tag at her chest. “Are you Manager Zhang?”
When the other party heard her say that, she pulled a long face. “Yes, I’m Manager Zhang, and that salesperson’s last name is Zhao. If you want to complain, then go ahead. Hmph, a fallen phoenix is not even as good as a chicken. I suggest you not to think of yourself as such a big deal.”
Tang Xinluo kept her gaze and whipped out her phone from her bag.
Of course, she would not call in front of these people and brought her phone to the side.
The other salespersons in the shop immediately crowded in front of the counter and took turns to cheer for Manager Zhang.
“Sister Zhang, don’t worry. She had long cut ties with the Tang family. Even if she complained to the superiors, no one would care about her.”
“That’s right. If it’s up to me, Sister Zhang, you’re too nice. If I knew that she acted so big, I should have just thrown her out when she came in.”
“Hey, you can’t say that. After all, she’s Ms. Wan’s friend.”
“Hah, what friend? Their statuses are different. Now, she doesn’t even have the right to carry Ms. Wan’s shoes.”
The crowd mocked Tang Xinluo again. At this time, one of the experienced ones suddenly pointed at Tang Xinluo and exclaimed, “That bag she’s carrying… isn’t that bag the one from Brand C? ‘DiamondForever’?
