Then, the manager took down the bag and put it in the empty basket behind the cashier. He then looked coldly at Wang Shiyu and said, “Miss, if you don’t need to check out, please step aside because the customers behind will need to check out.”
After he finished speaking, the manager immediately walked away.
“You—” Wang Shiyu pointed her finger at the manager’s back. She was so angry that her neck became swollen.
“Clap, clap, clap…”
There was a round of applause from the side.
The girl from earlier squeezed Wang Shiyu aside and said with a sneer, “If you buy something, you need to spend money. You can’t go arguing about it just because you are poor and expect everyone to give you things for free.”
“You—” Wang Shiyu was so mad that her eyes were red, and it was as if she was going to explode and beat someone.
An Zhixin really couldn’t stand hanging around any longer.
She used all her strength and dragged Wang Shiyu from that embarrassing place.
When the two were far away, Mu Xiaoxiao and Yin Shaojie then came out of the corner.
Having witnessed the situation earlier, Mu Xiaoxiao was simply stunned.
Dumbfounded, she looked at Yin Shaojie and asked, “What… is this logic?”
She still couldn’t understand why Wang Shiyu would cause such a fuss over this.
Even if the drink was really expensive, she could just not buy it. Why cause such a big fuss?
Yin Shaojie sneered. “Some people are probably too used to freeloading that they have even lost their manners.”
…
On the way back to the apartment.
Wang Shiyu was still angry about what had happened earlier. She was cursing incessantly at the girl, the cashier, and the manager.
Along the way, An Zhixin was quiet, and her face was pale.
Wang Shiyu said, “These rich people are really stingy! That bag of things was only two or three hundred yuan, yet they refuse to give it to me for free. Damn it, I wasted so much saliva.”
An Zhixin looked at her hesitantly and said, “Shiyu… Don’t you think that that was too unsightly? It’s not like we couldn’t afford it.”
Even if we couldn’t bear to buy two or three hundred yuan at a time, we don’t have to buy so much. We could just buy the items that we needed.
Originally, they had thought of going to the supermarket just to buy some female products and some snacks.
But when they reached the supermarket, they found that many of the items sold were high-end goods.
But of course, there were also many goods for ordinary people.
Take beverages for example. There was cola that they were used to drinking, and the price was the same as outside.
But when Wang Shiyu saw those foreign-imported drinks, she just had to buy them.
But she was unwilling to pay for it, so she tried to make a fuss and cheat her way to a free purchase.
Wang Shiyu still believed that she was right as she said, “I tried this method in other supermarkets, and I succeeded many times! Those managers are afraid of people causing troubles and affecting other customers, so they will choose to keep the peace. Who would have thought that the manager of this supermarket would be so mean! How dare he treat me like this! It’s maddening!”
She was even feeling proud as she thought of her previous successes.
One hundred yuan to two hundred yuan every time, and that was equivalent to her saving thousands of yuan!
An Zhixin sighed as she didn’t know how to respond to her.
Sometimes, An Zhixin would find herself getting influenced when she listened to too much of Wang Shiyu’s logic.
It seemed that she would unconsciously start to believe that they were poor people and that others should rightfully help them and accommodate their needs.
In the darkness of the night, An Zhixin couldn’t help but reflect.
They had not realized that Mu Xiaoxiao and Yin Shaojie were following not far behind them and that they had overheard their conversation.
