This was entirely Huo Yanyanâs problem. Huo Mian couldnât care less and would never be bothered by it. After all, Huo Mian had her fair share of conflicts with Huo Yanyan in the past.
However, the matter was a little different now that the two women had included Huo Mian in their derogatory talk. Judging by the sound of it, they were very likely Song Yishiâs friends.
They even refer to her as âtheir Yishiâ? Huo Mian shuddered at the thought of it.
Jiang Xiaowei was still changing in the fitting room. Huo Mian stood up and walked over with a smile. âWatch what youâre saying, young lady. Karma can be a bitch.â
âWho the hell are you?â Clearly, the two women had no idea who Huo Mian was.
âWhat a coincidence, Iâm a member of the Huo Family that you guys have been speaking so fondly of. Iâm also the woman thatâs supposedly worse than Yishi but is favored by President Qin.â
âYou eavesdropped on us? Have you got no manners?â one of the women objected.
âManners? Of course, I can never compare to you girls. After all, people like you who speak behind others backs obviously have incredible manners.â Huo Mian smirked coldly as she scanned their faces.
âWhat did you say?!â One of the women raged.
âYou heard me.â Huo Mian tilted her head slightly and glanced down with despise in her eyes.
âThe women from the Huo Family are the poorest. Did you see that? Huo Yanyan doesnât even have money to buy clothes. Itâs merely thirty thousand yuan, and yet, sheâs asking for a discount! Thatâs hilarious! Oh, and you! Your jacket, what brand is that? I bet itâs not even branded. I knew you guys were poor!â The other woman quickly changed the subject as she realized she was not merely as gifted as Huo Mian when it came to speechcraft.
âYou speak as if youâre well-off,â Huo Mian folded her arms across her chest.
âOf course Iâm richer than you. My daddy loves me very much!â The woman said proudly.
âHm, excuse me, but are you talking about your biological daddy or your sugar daddy?â
Even the sales associate began to giggle after Huo Mian finished speaking, admiring her eloquence.
Huo Yanyan watched silently as she contemplated, perhaps wondering why Huo Mian was standing up for her.
âWhat the hell are you saying! I was talking about real daddy! My daddy is the chairman of the Jia He Corporation,â the woman heaved heavily with anger.
âJia He? The steel company that started off with collecting garbage? Oh, I see, youâre a nouveau riche, arenât you? That explains the mannerism,â Huo Mian chuckled to herself.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yanyan couldnât help but also chuckle a bit.
The womanâs face grew from red to purple and all the shades in between.
âShut up!â The woman stomped her feet, reverting to throwing a tantrum like a child.
âBickering is no fun. How about this? Letâs place a game. We each pull out a debit card to see who has a higher balance. The person with more money wins and gets to slap the loser across the face. How does that sound?â
For a moment, the two women didnât know what to say against Huo Mianâs request. After a moment, one of the women whispered to the other, âDonât be afraid of her, Lili. Your family is so rich, and you have millions in your account. You would win for sure.â
Lili listened and nodded in agreement. She looked up immediately with pride. Her eyes were full of prejudice as she said, âSure, but donât you dare cry when Iâm slapping you across the face.â
âDonât worry, Iâm not that cowardly.â Huo Mian simply smiled.
âSheâs the only daughter in the family. Her father spoils her a lot, so sheâs got millions in her account. You shouldnât be betting on this,â Huo Yanyan kindly whispered to Huo Mian, wanting to warn her.
âIâll be fine. Just watch.â Huo Mian waved her hand to the sales associate.
âDo you have an ATM here?â she asked.
âYes, itâs right by the door.â The sales associate pointed.
âGreat! Everyone in the store, come and bear witness. Weâre about to make a bet!â Huo Mian smiled some more.
âIâll go first, so that you would know youâve lost before you even began,â the woman said as she took out her supreme status black card and walked over to the ATM. As she finished inputting her password, she looked back proudly at everyone as the screen showed her balance.
There were more than thirty-eight million yuan sitting in there. It was quite a large amount.
The woman glared down at Huo Mian, her eyes full of contempt. âYour turn, loser. I heard your father was a cheap-ass, so you and Huo Yanyan must be cheapskates too.â
Huo Mian didnât reply. She simply pulled out a regular ICBC debit card and walked towards the ATM with lightsome steps.
