The manager keep pleading, “I don’t dare.” She had finally realized that she had royalty messed up and pissed off a truly powerful figure.

Madam Liang looked at her coldly. “I have always emphasized that you shouldn’t judge people by appearance and shouldn’t favor the rich over the poor. Qipaos are for people with that special connection. Don’t you taint my noble qipao art with your stink of money! Miss Ran did a great job on this!”

Miss Ran that Madam Liang mentioned was the gentle attendant. She looked surprised and flattered when Madam Liang praised her.

The manager glimpsed at the attendant sourly. What year was it? Madam Liang was still talking about so-called special connection! The qipao store would have closed its door a long time ago if everyone was like her. All those kind of fashion moguls knew nothing about business!

Madam Liang noticed the sour look on the manager’s face and scolded her directly, “Don’t you give me that look! What happened today was the direct result of you judging people by appearance. It’s all your fault that we have offended the wrong person! I agreed to have you work at the store because you are a relative of my student. You made such a huge mistake today, and if I keep you here it will be detrimental to my business. From now on, you are fired, Miss Ran is going to take your job!”

The manager had no idea that things would turn out like that. She thought as long as she apologized, Madam Liang would just let it go. Who knew that she would actually get fired…

Things were resolved as Madam Liang found an acceptable solution for Ling Tianya and for herself. She didn’t like that manager to begin with, if it was not for her student, she would have let her go a long time ago.

“Young lady, we already sold that qipao to the other person and we can’t take it back. Don’t worry, I won’t let you down.” Madam Liang chuckled. Even the wrinkles on her face looked so artsy.

Ling Tianya nodded agreeably. “Madam Liang, the grandmother of my fiancé loves to wear your qipaos, or rather, she is obsessed.”

Madam Liang raised her head proudly. “So, your fiancé’s grandmother must be an old lady with great taste!”

Ling Tianya and Madam Liang chatted zealously like old friends, from that afternoon until after dinner.

It was not long before the day of Madam Ruan’s birthday banquet had arrived. Madam Ruan was still very outgoing even at her age, so Ruan Qishan would hold a lavish birthday party for his mother every year to make her happy.

Guards had fully secured the surroundings of the Ruan mansion. Any unknown vehicles or personnel were blocked. Meanwhile, one luxury vehicle after another flowed through the gates, dazzling people’s eyes.

Inside the dining hall, Ruan Lijia and her mother were helping Wang Yazhi manage the servants. When the guests started to arrive, Ruan Lijia worked even harder, covering every corner of the floor.

The third Mrs. Ruan, who was the wife of Ruan Guofu and the Mrs. Ruan who snatched the qipao from Ling Tianya the other day, seemed unhappy when she approached Ruan Lijia. “Lijia, your body has not fully healed, what are you working so hard for?”

Ruan Lijia’s face was full of anticipation. “Today is Grandma’s birthday, a great chance for me to impress her.”

Third Mrs. Ruan felt sympathetic about her own daughter and said in a strange tone, “Why is Ruan Zeyan’s fiancée not here to help? What a princess! Does she really think she can be so obnoxious under Ruan Zeyan’s protection?”

Thinking about Ling Tianya, Ruan Lijia’s eyes dimmed. “Mom, I think she’ll definitely be here.”

Third Mrs. Ruan sneered. “When she comes, I’ll teach her a lesson! She can’t bully you like that without consequences!”
