Chapter 13: Chapter 12 Please leave! This store is not open for you!

"What thief of pens? What are you talking about? That's really funny!"

Ying Hong scratched her head and struck a pose, putting two fingers in front of her mouth and pretending to giggle secretly.

She would never admit to having done anything.

Not only did she not admit it, but she also clung to the arm of the man next to her and spoke in a delicate, affected tone,

"Pang, look at him slandering me~ It's really too much!"

The customers and clerks nearby all looked nauseated at her act, but the man called Pang thoroughly enjoyed it.

He quickly glanced at Ying Hong, then raised his head haughtily and looked at the couple in front of him, saying to Gu Yu, "What's this about? Why are you insulting my girlfriend? Do you believe I will call the police and accuse you of slander?"

In the midst of speaking, he suddenly noticed Lin Xinyue next to Gu Yu.

His eyes instantly lit up!

Without any hesitation, he scrutinized Lin Xinyue from head to toe, and he made no attempt to hide the invasive look in his eyes!

A beauty! She's a true beauty!

Exquisite facial features, a graceful figure, and that tender temperament!

She far surpasses Ying Hong by countless streets!

In just a moment, Pang Qinglong felt his heart had changed.

He then saw that the goddess next to him was holding the arm of the young man who had "slandered" Ying Hong and immediately guessed that the two must be a couple from school.

Damn it! Why isn't such a goddess-level beauty mine!

This little pretty boy even has to swipe his card to buy a lipstick, how is he worthy of the goddess's affection!

He glanced again at Ying Hong next to him, who could only flatter him through affected manners, and Pang Qinglong instantly felt a sense of injustice rising inside him.

I look both rich and mature, not at all like some destitute student like Gu Yu!

Gu Yu quickly stepped aside to block the man from continuing to gaze at Lin Xinyue.

His tone was cold, "Call the police? Suit yourself."

Call the police? He wasn't afraid at all!

He wasn't afraid, but that didn't mean the pen thief wasn't!

Initially, Gu Yu thought about simply calling the police at the school gate, but then Ma Tengyun might have considered that they were all from the same school and it was unnecessary to go to extremes, so he chose to downplay the incident.

Since Ma Tengyun hadn't called the police, Gu Yu naturally wouldn't take the initiative.

But now, Ying Hong had already irritated him significantly, and if, as the man in front of him said, he wanted to call the police, then Gu Yu wouldn't mind sending the pen thief straight to jail!

Sure enough, upon hearing her boyfriend mention calling the police, Ying Hong's face turned pale and she immediately became nervous.

She tugged at Pang Qinglong's sleeve and rubbed his arm again, forcing a smile and said, "Pang, no need for that, it's just a trivial matter, no need to waste police resources!"

Call the police! How could they call the police!

If they did, wouldn't she be finished?

"Hmph, he's slandering my girlfriend! Whatever I do isn't too much!"

Pang Qinglong first snorted coldly, and then loudly yelled in the direction of Lin Xinyue, as if showcasing his dominance as a boyfriend to Lin Xinyue!

That expression was like saying, "See how I stand up for my girl, aren't you impressed now?"

But he was clearly overthinking it.

Fully aware of the entire situation, Lin Xinyue felt deep disdain in her heart upon seeing him loudly defend Ying Hong.

Keeping such company is no different than being in cahoots with thieves!

Her initial discomfort at the man's lecherous gaze had already been strong, but now it was simply nauseating!

Just then, the clerk Wang Sisi finished packing the lipstick, handing the gift bag and the credit card to Gu Yu.

"Sir, here are your purchased items and your card! Please take care of them!"

Wang Sisi grinned, thrilled beyond measure!

She had finally completed her first-ever sale since joining, and her spirit was soaring!

"Could you please pack this lip gloss too?"

Lin Xinyue didn't want to argue about disgusting things anymore, so she picked out another lip glaze from the counter and handed it to the sales assistant.

"Alright! Please wait a moment!"

Wang Sisi nodded with a smile and hurriedly took the lip glaze to prepare it for packaging.

Just then, a new female customer who had just come in suddenly grabbed her.

Ying Hong, "Hold on, give me that lip glaze in your hand, I'm buying all six shades including this one from the entire display!"

Wang Sisi froze, looked at the lip glaze in her hands, and then looked at Lin Xinyue saying, "This lip glaze has already been chosen by this lady. Let me package it, and I'll get another one for you, okay?"

Wang Sisi was thrilled, the customer actually wanted six lip glazes!

This was indeed a substantial order! S~eaʀᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Today really was a lucky day!

But the next second, she was dumbfounded.

Because Ying Hong actually snatched the lip glaze from her hand and said in a sharp voice, "What are you grabbing at? I want the one in your hands! Are you stupid? Can't you understand me? If you can't understand, then you shouldn't be working in this job!"

"Can't you get someone who understands here?"

Ying Hong spoke harshly, her face full of dissatisfaction, venting all her pent-up frustration on this seemingly gentle-natured sales assistant.

"That lip glaze belongs to this customer..."

Wang Sisi was berated until her face turned red, and a thin layer of tears began to form in her eyes, but she still tried to retrieve Lin Xinyue's lip glaze.

But the next second, it was as if she had poked a volcano's vent.

Seeing Wang Sisi reaching out to her, Ying Hong picked up her steel-chain purse and fiercely hit Wang Sisi's hand with it, bursting into an uncontrollable tirade:

"The customer is god, and I am your god! Do you understand? Whose words are you supposed to listen to if not mine?"

"You're working here to serve me subserviently, understand?"

"Damn it, I'm the customer, aren't you supposed to pack these lip glazes for me quickly?"

"I'm telling you, I won't just complain about you, I'll complain to your entire store, alright!"

"How on earth did I encounter such a brainless sales assistant like you, unbelievable!"

It was like a street quarrel!

In the blink of an eye, all the other customers and sales assistants decisively stayed away from Ying Hong, not daring to come near her.

"But... but... it was this customer who chose it first... I'm not neglecting to serve you."

Wang Sisi's eyes were red, a red streak was visible on her palm, and she bit her lip trying not to cry, but tears had already filled her eyes.

She didn't know what she had done wrong to anger this customer.

All she could do was stand there, helpless and unsure of what to do next.

"What are you waiting for? Six lip glazes, including the one in my hand! Pack them up for me!"

Looking at the distressed sales assistant standing in place, Ying Hong continued her harsh speech.

Overwhelmed by the tyranny, Wang Sisi could only bow her head and silently go to fetch the other five lip glazes from the counter.

"Xinyue."

Gu Yu, who had been watching coldly, turned his head and gently called Lin Xinyue.

Lin Xinyue, seeing the fury in his eyes, immediately understood what he meant.

She quickly reached out to pull the distressed sales assistant to her side, gently patting her on the back to console her, "It's okay, don't mind the words of such a wicked woman. I don't need that lip glaze anymore, recommend me another great one! I trust your taste!"

Wang Sisi pursed her lips, wiped away the tears with her sleeve, looked at Lin Xinyue with moved eyes, and nodded vigorously.

"Sorry, you wanted to buy the lip glaze? I'm not selling it anymore!"

Watching Lin Xinyue calm the sales assistant's emotions, Gu Yu stepped forward and coldly looked at Ying Hong.

At the same time, Gu Yu had already silently opened the system Exchange Mall and found the shop option.

[Ding! 80,000 Check-in Points have been deducted! You have obtained the ownership of Shop No. 78 on Xuhui Commercial Street in Modu!]

[System handling the transfer, approximately one minute to complete!]

Gu Yu spoke coldly, "Please leave, from now on, this store is no longer open to you!"
