Ye Jiaqi tried a few more of the dresses You Pianran gave her and she felt that they were all okay.

However, she wasn’t very used to wearing dresses but people have to wear dresses on certain occasions.

“Jiaqi, I’ve looked at these dresses. They aren’t very beautiful and don’t fit you. Let’s go to a different store.” You Pianran said as she leaned against the wall.

She said that intentionally as the sales assistant had previously said words bluntly.

Ye JIaqi had no intention to buy dresses from here in the first place. Out of all the dresses she tried on, even the cheapest was a thousand dollars.

A thousand dollars was around a month of her food expenses.

“Don’t come to the mall without money. You can live your life wearing cheap clothes.”

The sales assistant was incredibly dissatisfied. She stared coldly at them before taking away the dresses the Ye Jiaqi had tried on and hung them up one by one.

“Don’t you think the clothes at your store are too ugly?” You Pianran asked, her temper flaring up.

“You think they’re ugly and you guys still come in? If you don’t have money, then you don’t have money. Why say they are ugly?”

The sales assistant was already really unhappy and rolled her eyes several times.

Several customers had heard the quarrel and stopped to look at Ye Jiaqi and You Pianran.

Their eyes had different emotions, but they all contained contempt and disdain.

“Don’t you have a bit of consciousness if you’re working in the service industry? Isn’t it reasonable for customers to try on clothes? Who are you frowning at? You just came up and told us, the dress is one thousand and three hundred. One thousand and three hundred only.”

You Pianran was never easy going. She never intended to argue.

However, this sales assistant looked down on people!

Just because they were fresh graduates didn’t mean they couldn’t afford a dress!

You Pianran spoke faster, “Are you not scared of us registering a complaint?”

“Complaint? Go complain then. Are we stopping you? If you can’t afford it, you can’t afford it. No point in swelling your face up to look imposing!”

Another sales assistant came over to help her and said, “If you can afford it, there’s no need for you to yell at us. Everyone can see that you can’t afford it. Even with all the money added up in your accounts, you probably can’t afford it!”

The two sales assistants acted high and mighty and their eyes revealed a deep disdain.

Ye Jiaqi and You Pianran’s complexions sank, both darkening.

There were more and more customers surrounding them…

The crowd began to whisper-

“The young girls these days want to protect their self-respect. If they don’t have money, why bother arguing with them.”

“If I were them, I’d buy the most expensive dress and strive for vindication.”

“It’s not completely their fault, these sales assistants aren’t good either.”

“That’s true, both sides aren’t good. One side is acting like a snob whilst the other side is acting tough.”

“The girls these days are incredibly vain!”

“…”

There was a lot of discussion in the crowd when Ye Jiaqi pointed at a light pink dress and said lightly, “I’ll buy this one.”

You Pianran held her hand and lowered her voice.

“Jiaqi, are you crazy? Let’s just file a complaint regarding this shop. If you buy the dress right now, that just helps them! I’ve never seen a store that has sales assistants that have such bad manners!”

“It’s okay, I want to buy the dress anyway,” Ye Jiaqi shrugged off.

However, in this one month, she could only drink soup.

“Look at this clearly, this dress is two thousand and five hundred dollars.” You Pianran said whilst frowning.

Ye Jiaqi squeezed her eyes a little before saying, “Then I’ll really be relying on you to support me.”

Back in the Qiao residence, all her clothes were bought by the maids there. She never had any pocket money.

Once she left the Qiao Residence, she became self-reliant.

In most cases, she only bought cheap things.

She was buying an expensive dress for the first time.

The sales assistant came over with her arms folded. “Are you actually buying it? I’ll open the tab. If you can’t afford it, then don’t force it.”

People in the crowd began to cheer, “Little girl, go buy it!”

Ye Jiaqi said faintly, “Open the tab.”

“Swiping card or cash?” the sales assistant asked, her face still proud.
