Yun Qiluo pointed at them while tugging at the man’s shirt hem, speaking in a low, aggrieved voice: "They won’t let me try anything on, nor let me touch anything."
Even if she was naive, she realized she was being bullied.
Although she didn’t understand why they wanted to bully her, now that there was someone backing her up, she wasn’t afraid of them!
And when the beautiful woman asked, she would definitely speak up. The TV (on the parenting channel) said that only children who don’t lie are good children!
Thinking about what they had just said made her pout in frustration:
"They also said I was poor, that they were scared I’d dirty the clothes here and couldn’t afford to pay."
Following her soft words, the man’s exquisitely beautiful face took on a few shades of depth.
His slender hand rested on her small shoulder, half-hugging the Young Girl in his arms.
His phoenix eyes slowly swept over the two sales clerks in front of him, and he spoke gently:
His tone was lazy, like someone who hadn’t fully woken up.
Yet amidst the casualness, there was an underlying hint of danger that seeped from his very bones.
Yan Yan’s presence was inherently dangerous and dark; when he was displeased, even highly ranked personages would feel their scalp tingle under his gaze.
How could the two sales clerks possibly withstand it? They stood there, faces ashen, frozen in place, completely forgetting how to speak.
If their brains weren’t numbed, they might have been scared to tears already.
The store manager, seeing Yan Yan walking towards Yun Qiluo, knew trouble was brewing.
She felt her scalp tingle, hurriedly rushing over.
She obsequiously put on a smiling face and said, "Misunderstanding, Fifth Young Master, it’s all a misunderstanding..."
Saying that, the manager turned and glared viciously at the two sales clerks, scolding harshly:
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and apologize to the Fifth Young Master and this young lady! You have no sense!"
At this moment, those two sales clerks had none of the previous arrogance left, repeatedly bowing and apologizing.
Their repeated "I’m sorry" was choked with sobs.
Almost all directed at Yan Yan, obviously they were truly afraid of him.
They looked quite pitiful as they apologized.
However, Yun Qiluo wrinkled her little nose and still didn’t speak up for them.
Serves them right for bullying her.
Yan Yan’s long, narrow eyes were deep as water, holding the petite girl in his arms without a word.
He paid no heed to their apologies.
Beside them, the store manager’s heart was in her throat due to his attitude, forcing a smile:
"Fifth Young Master, you see, they’ve apologized..."
Yan Yan still said nothing.
Sweat had broken out behind the store manager.
She knew that those two clerks had bullied that little girl earlier.
However, this sort of thing wasn’t the first time it happened; some people who came in clearly had no money to buy clothes but still wanted to try them on would often face this situation.
As long as it wasn’t too excessive, she generally turned a blind eye.
But then... who would’ve thought this simple-looking girl, who seemed as if she’d never seen the world, would actually know someone like Yan Yan.
This influential man from the Yan Family, bringing a woman along for the first time, and they had managed to offend her!
Originally, she thought it was sheer luck to be able to see him here today.
But instead, this mess unfolded...
It was hardly a stroke of luck; it was more like eight lifetimes’ worth of bad luck, encountering these two clueless employees.
Everyone knows, within the entire Imperial City’s circle, no one dares to offend Yan Yan!
