“Um, pretty lady, can we do this? Why don’t you pick another style? I will give you a discount. Can you please give this one up and let our Zezhi have it?” suggested the sales assistant, giving Song Wenxin a look that transmitted the dilemma that she was in, before gazing at Qiao Zezhi with admiration as though she would have loved to devour him.
For a tie like that, only someone with Qiao Zezhi’s out-of-this-world good looks would be a good match for it.
“But I saw this tie first. Why don’t you ask him to look for another style?” Song Wenxin demanded to know.
Song Wenxin was very unhappy with such discriminatory service.
So she had to give up on something that she liked simply because he was a movie star?!
This was the tie that she had liked the moment she set her eyes on it on the previous day, and she wanted to give it to her brother as a present, knowing that he would like it!
So there was no way Song Wenxin would give it up!
“Why are you so inflexible?” the sales assistant asked, now irritated by Song Wenxin’s determination to not give in.
At that moment, Qiao Zezhi, who was looking on by the side, interrupted with a laugh. “I will pay you double the price. Can you let me have the tie, please?”
Having been high on the popularity charts in the entertainment industry for so many years, Qiao Zezhi had long gotten used to the preferential treatment from his adoring public, so, today, he had not expected to encounter someone so inflexible, who regarded him as a nobody!
Actually, he had earlier been half-hearted about wanting the tie, but, now, he was determined to persuade her to let him have the tie willingly!
Now, that was Qiao Zezhi’s style of getting things sorted!
“How about this, then? I will give you triple the amount, so please, can you stop fighting over this tie with me?” Totally incensed by his condescending attitude, Song Wenxin flashed the bank card that had been in her hand and stared at him fearlessly with her eyes opened wide.
“Did you think you could do anything just because you are rich?!”
That said, she did not forget to also send him a look of contempt!
Truth be told, Song Wenxin was not unreasonable, but the arrogance and conceit of the man had infuriated her so much that she was determined to fight him to the end.
Qiao Zezhi’s face turned a ghostly white. He could not believe that his first attempt, in his entire life, to use money to insult someone had backfired, resulting in himself being insulted, instead.
He could not imagine that such a woman existed in this world. Could she not see his beautiful face? How could she even think of fighting with him over something?
“Are you doing this on purpose to get my attention?” Qiao Zezhi asked suddenly before laughing sneeringly and adding, “Looks like you have been watching too many TV dramas!” She could not believe that he would resort to such an archaic, lame tactic!
At his words, Song Wenxin laughed. What was this about her trying to get his attention? Was he insane? Why did she even need to get his attention?
Not bothering to argue any further with him, Song Wenxin just handed the bank card to the sales assistant and instructed, “Check out and wrap that up for me!”
The sales assistant looked at Song Wenxin disdainfully with no intention of doing as she was told.
Feeling slighted and ignored, Qiao Zezhi’s face got even paler; ever since he made it and became popular, no had dared to treat him this way.
Was this woman doing this intentionally?
Seeing that they had ignored her, Song Wenxin got even more upset and asked irritably, “Is this the type of customer service you offer to your customers? Do you want me to call in and file a complaint against you?”
“Forget it. I’m not interested in something so tacky anyway. Let her have it!” By then, Qiao Zezhi had had enough. Sending Song Wenxin a scornful look, he put on his dark glasses, turned around, and stormed out of the store in a huff.
