Chapter 232 – We Are Truly Proud

Seeing that Madam Liang got mad, the manager rushed to open her mouth first before anyone else could say something that would incriminate her.

“Madam Liang, this is what happened. Madam Ruan came in earlier, and our prized possession caught her eye, it was the piece named, Two Phoenixes Made In Heaven, your eldest protege Master Liu created it.”

“Madam Ruan? Which Madam Ruan?” Madam Liang was confused.

The manager scrambled to answer. “It was the wife of the third son of the Ruan family, Mr. Ruan Guofu’s wife!”

The manager seemed to throw Ling Tianya a look, as though saying ‘So? As the wife of the Ruan family sons, their status is not that higher than yours, right?’

“Oh, her? So, what does her coming to the shop have to do with my bestie coming?”

The manager gave a charming smile. “It was a coincidence. The piece that Madam Ruan wanted, this lady here had wanted it as well. Since Madam Ruan is an important customer, I sold the qipao to Madam Ruan instead.”

The manager said it as though she had the soundest reasoning, others might even think Ling Tianya was the one that was creating trouble for the staff, trying to snatch a piece of clothing from another customer.

When the worker saw how impressive her manager’s ability to twist the truth was, she couldn’t keep quiet any more, and added weakly, “Actually, it was this lady here that wanted the piece first.”

Instantly, the manager’s glare shot at the worker.

“Madam Liang, I didn’t know beforehand that this was your friend, and I did it in order to maintain good relationships with our big customers, I did it for the shop’s wellbeing.”

She thought initially that, even if Madam Liang was unhappy about how she had treated her friend, she would let her off on the fact that she was doing it in order to please their important clients.

Who knew…

“Idiot.” Madam Liang coldly insulted.

The manager felt as though her blood froze. Madam Liang actually scolded her!

“You only know how to maintain some clients; do you know who she actually is?” Madam Liang pointed to Ling Tianya.

The manager thought she seemed familiar and looked pretty. At most she could only some socialite or movie star though, how important could she be? Surely not more important than Madam Ruan!

“My bestie here is the world-famous screenwriter TY, the CEO of Yuan Teng Corporation, Ruan Zeyan’s wife-to-be, and the future family head of that Madam Ruan you’ve been yapping about!” As she listed out her titles, a look of absolute pride bloomed on her features.

There was a small detail that Ling Tianya caught. When Madam Liang introduced her, she mentioned her status as a screenwriter first, and that meant that to Madam Liang her most amazing accomplishment was the fact that she was a successful screenwriter. The fact that she was Ruan Zeyan’s fiancee came next.

That was why Ling Tianya liked hanging out with Madam Liang, she was different from most people. When she liked someone, it was genuinely because she liked them, and not the extra strings that were attached to them.

On that front, she was very similar to Ruan Zeyan’s grandmother. Ling Tianya felt that the two of them could potentially become great friends.

After Madam Liang had majestically introduced Ling Tianya’s titles and accomplishments, the snobby manager felt fear shoot through her entire body. She was staring at Ling Tianya and Madam Liang with utter disbelief.

It had to be the biggest plot twist in her entire life. She had actually had the audacity to describe Ling Tianya as a commoner? Did she actually want to die?

“But… This… Madam Liang, you’re not joking, right? If this lady here is really who you said, how could Madam Ruan not recognize her?”

That was easily explained. When Ruan Zeyan and Ling Tianya’s engagement exploded over the news, Madam Ruan was spending time overseas with her daughter Ruan Lijia.

“Are you doubting me?” Madam Liang’s eyes narrowed into tight slits, her compassionate features instantly turning threatening.

That scared the manager too. “No, I wouldn’t dare…”
