Chapter 388 - 388 374 Princess equals Flower Peacock (2)_1

Chapter 388: 374, Princess equals Flower Peacock (2)_1 Chapter 388: 374, Princess equals Flower Peacock (2)_1 Quan Yifei’s voice came over, and Jian Qing stood up to walk over.

“What do you think of this one?” Quan Yifei asked, holding up a slim, long dress and comparing it against herself.

Jian Qing took a glance, about to respond, she heard a commotion at the entrance.

“Your Highness, this way please.”

“Sorry, you can’t enter here.”

“What’s happening?” Quan Yifei, looking over to the entrance, opened her lips in surprise, seemingly speechless.

At the entrance, a dozen big burly men in black suits stood as guards.

The woman they referred to as “princess” was wrapped in a purple gown that highlighted her ravishing figure. With her deep-set features, exquisite makeup, and an exotic allure, she stood tall in silver high heels.

However, the proud and haughty expression on the woman’s face somewhat marred her beauty, igniting a sense of displeasure.

Feeling slighted at their sudden denial at the entrance, the other customers were not pleased either.

Especially when the new designs for March just arrived, those who loved to compete naturally rushed to purchase, worrying that delays might cause them to miss out.

“Why can’t we enter? This shop doesn’t belong to your family.”

“Exactly, we’re all consumers. Just because you’re privileged, we’re not allowed in?”

“This is so unfair.”

A group of women at the entrance protested loudly. If not for the intimidating bodyguards, they would’ve charged in.

“Store Manager!”

A woman dressed in a navy blue uniform walked in, and the sales assistants seemed relieved.

“What’s happened?” Lin Yue asked, discovering the chaos at the entrance, a trace of sharpness flashing in her eyes.

A sales assistant whispered something in her ear.

After listening, Lin Yue took a look at the woman in the princess dress, her eyebrows furrowed slightly before she made her way over to the entrance.

“I’m sorry, I’m the manager here. May I know why our customers are being stopped at the entrance?”

“How dare you!” snapped the woman in the princess dress, her voice icy. “Chaton.”

The bodyguard named Chaton, standing next to her, stepped forward, looking sternly at Lin Yue, “Our princess wants to shop in peace here. Please clear the shop.”

His tone was imperious, as if the shop was their territory.

This attitude was certainly infuriating.

Lin Yue responded with a smile, “I’m sorry, but we can’t fulfill your request. We treat all our customers equally. They are customers, and so are you.”

Her words garnered silent approval from those who were stopped outside of the shop.

Well said!

“Nonsense! It’s an honor for your shop that I’m here. Clear out the store immediately.” She frowned, her gaze becoming hostile towards Lin Yue.

“Miss, if you don’t want to shop, you’re always free to leave.” Her patience wearing thin, Lin Yue’s smile disappeared.

The customer is always right, true.

But repeatedly irritating us, in our store, we absolutely cannot tolerate such behavior.

Having never been treated in such a manner, the “princess” flushed in anger, “I am a princess, how dare a mortal like you speak to me in such a manner! If you continue behaving this way, let’s see if your shop can stay open!”

From not so far, Quan Yifei snickered behind her hand.

A princess?

To her, this woman was more like a prancing peacock.

A particularly chattery one at that.

“Miss, if you wish to shop, we welcome you, but if you’re here to cause trouble, I’ll have to call security.” Lin Yue said, “Our March’s designer has made it clear that anyone causing trouble in our shop will be blacklisted, no matter who they are.”

She emphasized the last four words heavily.

Having involved March’s name, the woman seemed somewhat apprehensive.

Internationally, who didn’t know March was notoriously quirksome? He wouldn’t give her any special privilege just because she was a princess.

“Have you made up your mind?” Lin Yue asked calmly.

The woman clenched her teeth, “Chaton, let them in.”

Damn it! A mere store manager dared to treat her in such a manner, she would make sure Lin Yue paid for this.

“Yes.”

Chaton waved his hand, and the bodyguards blocking the entrance moved aside.

“Hmph!”

Many women huffed at them, walking in with their heads held high.

“Princess, do you want to continue shopping?” asked Chaton.

The woman glared at him, “Isn’t that obvious? Hold this.”

With that, she handed her hot drink to him, and, strutting in her heels, went to peruse the clothing racks.

No more show to watch here!

Quan Yifei turned her attention back to her clothes.

“Jian Qing, aren’t you shopping anymore?”

Having thought about something, a shadow crossed Jian Qing’s eyes.

“Yifei, you choose first. I’m going over there to take a look.”

“Okay.”

Watching Jian Qing head towards the men’s section, Quan Yifei didn’t ask any further.

Under the lights, the attention of those in the shop was frequently drawn to her exquisite and beautiful face. Some even recognized Jian Qing and began to whisper to their friends.

Whilst the whispers were quiet, they were clearly audible in the silence of the shop.

The woman, catching the sounds of admiration, felt a twinge of dissatisfaction.

She put down the clothes in her hands and followed the gaze of the people.

In the men’s section, a slender figure stood with her back to her, with only a head of pitch-black hair visible.

A flash of darkness crossed her eyes. She was eager to see this ‘beauty’ the crowd was lauding.

Just as she was about to step forward, she saw the figure turning around.

What a face it was.

Her skin seemed to have the luster of cream, the delicate texture like sheep fat jade, her exquisite face without a touch of powder, yet it couldn’t hide her elegance.

Jealousy flashed in the woman’s eyes – she couldn’t admit that the woman in front of her was more beautiful than her.

A rising impulse urged her to march forward and flaunt her sharp nails on that enviable face.

Feeling a burning gaze on herself, Jian Qing looked up and, catching sight of the source, casually averted her eyes.

This response was interpreted as a provocation by the woman.

The woman clenched her red lips, a deep frustration lingering in her eyes.

She took back her hot drink. Sensing the warmth in her palm, a glint of determination flashed in her eyes.

Jian Qing, holding the clothes she’d picked, walked to the counter. The sales assistant received them.

“Would you like to check out now?”

“Wait a moment, pack up the clothes first.”

Seeing that Quan Yifei hadn’t come yet, Jian Qing thought they’d check out together later.

“Okay.”

“Wrap these two pieces of clothing for me.” The woman walked over, bumping into Jian Qing intentionally without offering an apology.

Jian Qing tilted her head, gave her a sidelong glance, and hooked up a playful smile from the corner of her mouth.
