Chapter 53 - 53: 53: It Seems Like I Saw Rong Yan
“Of course.
But just then, the sales associate suddenly received a phone call and, a moment later, returned with an apologetic face, “Mrs. Rong, Miss Rong, I am extremely sorry. Our store has stopped service.”
“Stopped service? It’s only three in the afternoon.” Rong Weiwei’s eyebrows were furrowed in obvious displeasure.
Bowing her head, the sales associate bent over again and said, “Yes, we have just received a notification from above that a very prestigious customer has arrived at the mall, so the entire mall needs to halt operations to prepare for clearing the venue. Miss Rong, I am truly sorry.”
This is the largest mall in Capital City!
Who has such clout that they can clear out the entire mall?
This isn’t something that can be done with just money!
Although she was seething with anger, she still managed to hold it in and said, “Then wrap up the dress my mother has chosen.”
The sales associate looked troubled and bowed again, “I am sorry, Miss Rong…
the notice we received stated that all items must be temporarily put on hold from being sold until after that prestigious customer has made their selections and left. If Miss Rong likes, how about coming back tomorrow?”
Her last question, asked so carefully, still caused Rong Weiwei’s face to darken, her dignity wounded.
What is this supposed to mean? Are they expecting her to buy what’s left after someone else’s pick?
Jiang Meiqi was also unhappy and began to make a fuss, “What kind of attitude is this? Get your manager over here. I refuse to believe that I can’t even buy a dress!”
“This…” The sales associate lifted her head with great difficulty, hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up, “I’m sorry, the manager is currently with that customer and can’t leave to see you at the moment. Mrs. Rong, what would you like to
Jiang Meiqi had never been so publicly humiliated before, her face alternating between shades of red and white.
There were other customers in the store, who all turned to look at them upon hearing their argument, causing Rong Weiwei to also lose face tremendously.
She pulled at the person who was on the verge of exploding, and in a lowered voice said, “Mom, let it be.”
Jiang Meiqi had a surge of anger in her chest, but seeing her daughter’s embarrassed face and knowing she was a public figure who shouldn’t cause a scene in public, she forcibly suppressed her anger with a cold snort, tossing aside the clothes in her hand, “Hmph! Fine, don’t sell it. I won’t wear this brand anymore! What rubbish!”
“Weiwei, let’s go!”
With that, she pulled Rong Weiwei to leave.
She stormed ahead, pulling Rong Weiwei along so that she staggered.
Just as they were about to exit, Rong Weiwei’s peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure—Rong Yan?!
What was she doing here?
Before she could get a clear look, the figure had already turned a corner and disappeared.
Rong Weiwei frowned.
Could she have seen wrong? How could Rong Yan possibly be here? The mall had been cleared out, it couldn’t possibly be that the important person behind it all, who made the mall not mind offending well-established customers like them to clear out, was Rong Yan!
She and Jiang Meiqi had already walked out of the mall, but her eyebrows were still tightly furrowed, unable to let go of her thoughts.
That figure just now really resembled Rong Yan too much…
Rong Weiwei shook her head.. Could she really have been seeing things?
