Chapter 360: Three hundred and fifty-nine, bullying by power

"Thank you, sis! You’re really too good to me!" the slightly younger girl exclaimed with happiness, and immediately started to pick out her selection in the store.

"Oh? This one is nice! Let me try it on," the girl said as she approached the store clerk holding a coat, pointing at the coat in her hands.

"I’m really sorry! That lady over there has already reserved this coat. Perhaps you could look at something else?" the clerk said apologetically.

"Slap!" The girl raised her hand and slapped the clerk across the face. "Stop your blabber! Just give it to me to try on." Her brother-in-law was a member of the He Family; in this Jinchen, how many dared not to give the He Family face?

"Xiaojuan," Zhao Xiaoli called out in displeasure.

Zhao Xiaojuan snatched the coat from the clerk’s hands and turned to look at her sister with a look of aggrievement, "Sis, I just wanted to try it on, and she wouldn’t let me. Isn’t that deliberately looking down on us? She thinks we can’t afford it, that’s why she won’t let me try it on." She knew her sister too well and knew what mattered most to her.

"I didn’t, it’s really been reserved by that lady." The clerk, holding her face, said with a look of aggrievement.

Zhao Xiaojuan glared disdainfully at the clerk. "I’m just trying it on, not fighting with the other person for it. What does your refusal mean? If not looking down on us, then what?"

"I really didn’t mean that, I only wanted to inform you," the clerk argued back with grievance. She had encountered unreasonable customers before, but never ones who would hit someone right away.

"I see it as you looking down on us," Zhao Xiaojuan scoffed and turned to her sister, "Sis, look at her, she’s deliberately disrespecting us. She makes a mistake, doesn’t apologize, and now she’s raising her voice at me."

Zhao Xiaoli nodded, her face unhappy as she looked at the clerk, "Indeed, you were wrong first in this matter. I hope you can apologize to my sister, or else you can forget about working here." Before marrying into the He Family, her family was just average. She worked hard, studying and improving herself to become a person of status and finally succeeded in marrying into the He Family. But due to her family background, life in the He Family was not easy for her. Therefore, she hated being looked down upon.

"You two seem to be going a bit too far." Zhu Huizhen could no longer hold herself back and stepped forward.

"What does this have to do with you?" Zhao Xiaojuan asked Xiaoli and Luo Shu, sneering.

"Of course, it has to do with me; that coat in your hands is the one I reserved. There has to be some order of who came first, right?" Zhu Huizhen said sternly.

"Did you buy it? If you didn’t buy that coat, it’s still the store’s. What’s wrong with me trying it on?" Zhao Xiaojuan questioned, arrogant and haughty. Behind her, backed by the towering presence of the He Family, what did she have to fear?

"Lady, this is between us and her; we hope you don’t interfere," Zhao Xiaoli said.

"I’ve already interfered, now what can you do about it?" Zhu Huizhen raised her head defiantly, her gaze mocking as she looked at the Zhao sisters. What she couldn’t stand the most were people who bullied others because they had money and power, those who thought themselves too important, expecting everyone to heed their wishes.

"You!" Zhao Xiaoli was surprised by Huizhen’s resolute attitude. She sized up Zhu Huizhen and Luo Shu, certain she had not seen them in their social circles before.

"Let me tell you, you’d better not offend us, or you will regret it," Zhao Xiaojuan threatened.

Zhu Huizhen and Luo Shu exchanged a glance and shook their heads with a smile, "Regret? I’m actually quite curious to know what that feels like."

"Sis! Quick, call brother-in-law and say someone is bullying us," Zhao Xiaojuan turned to Zhao Xiaoli, noting that her sister’s expression was equally displeased. She couldn’t help but feel a bit of joy. She loved the feeling of flexing power, especially when the other party realized that she had the support of the He Family behind her, pleading for her mercy, begging her—it was completely invigorating, giving her a sense of superiority.

Zhao Xiaoli looked at Zhu Huizhen and Luo Shu, furrowed her brows thinking, and when she saw there was a phone in the store available, she headed over to use it.

Seeing Zhao Xiaoli walk over to make a call, Zhao Xiaojuan smirked triumphantly, "Just wait! Soon you’ll know what regret tastes like."

Zhu Huizhen laughed mockingly, pulling Luo Shu aside to sit down on a chair. She really wanted to see, with the other party being so arrogant, just who was backing them up.

He Youhua was being intimate with his secretary in the office when the phone rang. Annoyed, he frowned and slightly pushed away the secretary kissing his neck. "Honey! Let me take this call first, we’ll continue in a bit." With his status, it was natural for him to have more than one woman. He had long tired of the plain-looking wife at home. If it weren’t for the He Family’s rule that once married, divorce was not to be taken lightly, he would have replaced her long ago.

"This is He Youhua," he said as he picked up the call.

"Youhua, it’s Xiaoli. Xiaojuan and I are being bullied at the mall, can you come over?" Zhao Xiaoli asked softly. Her status made her always cautious around He Youhua, afraid that he might not want her anymore.

She had managed to marry into the He Family smoothly, not just because of her education and looks, but mainly because she had trapped He Youhua by getting pregnant with his child, forcing him into marriage.

"I understand," He Youhua initially wanted to decline, but remembering how Zhao Xiaojuan had been making eyes at him that morning, he changed his mind. That little demoness, he hadn’t yet had a taste of her.

Seeing Zhao Xiaoli hang up the phone, Zhao Xiaojuan asked excitedly, "Sis, is brother-in-law coming?" She also admired men with money and power like her brother-in-law, too bad he was her sister’s husband.

Zhao Xiaoli nodded with a smile, "He said he’ll be here soon." She was actually surprised that He Youhua had agreed to come, but she was genuinely happy that her husband would finally stand up for her.

"Great! Let’s see if they will keep up their defiant attitude later. Humph!" Zhao Xiaojuan scoffed at Zhu Huizhen and Luo Shu sitting not far away, then pulled Zhao Xiaoli to sit down aside. Just the thought of her brother-in-law soon arriving to take their side made her gleeful with anticipation.
