From Cannon Fodder to '80s Tycoon with My Space Supermarket
Chapter 100: Not Presentable
CHAPTER 100: CHAPTER 100: NOT PRESENTABLE
Jiang Wan was also suffering and couldn’t speak, as the two of them just stood there awkwardly in the shop, not knowing how long had passed.
Kuang Yu finally finished paying and returned.
Jiang Wan was truly feeling stifled and miserable.
At this moment, upon seeing Kuang Yu return, she eagerly wanted to take the gold bracelet from the counter and hurriedly pull Kuang Yu out of this annoying place.
Just now, after listening to the store clerk, Jiang Wan was utterly bothered.
Originally, she thought it might be just a coincidence—the store clerk didn’t know about her relationship with Kuang Yu, so all those words were just said unintentionally.
After all, to the store clerk, both she and Kuang Yu were strangers, especially since Kuang Yu came from the provincial city.
Logically speaking, the store clerk couldn’t possibly recognize them or know what kind of relationship they had.
But as Jiang Wan thought it over, she quickly understood that those selling goods in the Department Store usually have sharp insights.
From her and Kuang Yu’s demeanor, it was easy to tell the nature of their relationship.
In reality, they thought they were being discreet, that no one could see through them.
However, if this store clerk paid attention, she could discern it from their tone and attitude while speaking.
The way she acted timid and cautious towards Kuang Yu clearly indicated their relationship wasn’t legitimate.
Besides, if they were truly husband and wife, why would she be so submissive and fawning?
Additionally, Kuang Yu wore that wedding ring, and when introducing Kuang Yu to the clerk, Jiang Wan said he was her boyfriend, not her husband.
Isn’t that blatantly exposing the nature of their relationship?
Jiang Wan really wished she could slap herself hard; she thought she was smart, but in the end, was still seen through by the store clerk.
This town was such a tiny place.
If this store clerk happened to know her, or perhaps knew one of their acquaintances, and told someone about this incident in the future, she wouldn’t dare face people again.
After all, in this town, the chance of running into acquaintances is too high; you might not know them, but others know you.
Having relations and connections is just too common.
Therefore, Jiang Wan didn’t dare confront this store clerk directly since it was her own fault.
The only thing Jiang Wan could do was secretly give her a few glares when the clerk wasn’t paying attention.
Upon seeing Kuang Yu, Jiang Wan finally saw a savior.
Jiang Wan directly went to the entrance to greet Kuang Yu.
Kuang Yu felt a bit baffled by Jiang Wan’s unusually enthusiastic demeanor.
Could it be because he bought her a big gold bracelet, making her so happy, that she was treating him with such warmth?
Kuang Yu’s lips dropped instantly, thinking Jiang Wan claimed she wasn’t materialistic.
But seeing how she smiled just because he bought her a gold bracelet, wasn’t it obviously for his money?
Kuang Yu considered that he had other matters to handle later, so he didn’t argue with Jiang Wan.
After entering the jewelry shop.
Kuang Yu handed the receipt to the clerk, instructing her to hurry up and pack the gold bracelet so he could leave with Jiang Wan.
He knew how precious his time was.
The afternoon meeting was extremely important to him, and he couldn’t afford any delay or to be late.
Therefore, Kuang Yu only wanted to swiftly complete the purchase of this troublesome gold bracelet and go back to prepare for the meeting materials he needed.
Coincidentally, Jiang Wan also thought so; since realizing the clerk might have guessed their improper relationship, she constantly felt the clerk was looking at her with judgmental eyes.
Now, Jiang Wan couldn’t wait to leave here as soon as possible.
Even the big gold bracelet she had just gotten didn’t feel particularly thrilling anymore.
So, this time Jiang Wan didn’t even pay attention to Kuang Yu’s reaction; both had their own thoughts, but shared the same idea to leave the mall as quickly as possible.
When walking out the door, Jiang Wan seemed to deliberately provoke the store clerk.
Just like when she first came into the store, she affectionately held onto Kuang Yu’s arm as they walked out of the jewelry shop door.
Guilty as she felt inside, Jiang Wan still had other thoughts; just a while ago, she clearly saw Kuang Yu quietly smiling at that store clerk.
So it’s evident, even if Kuang Yu didn’t mean anything by it, this store clerk might have an interest in her man.
Otherwise, why would Kuang Yu smile at her? Surely there’s something going on.
If it weren’t for the disparity in their status, Jiang Wan would definitely question Kuang Yu why.
But unfortunately, she’s annoyed by the fact she doesn’t have the status now to question him.
If Kuang Yu considered her unreasonable, he might dump her early.
That store clerk definitely didn’t have good intentions, likely wanting to seduce Kuang Yu, attracted by all the wealth he possessed.
Jiang Wan may not have many skills, but at least Kuang Yu’s current female companion was her, Jiang Wan.
Then she couldn’t let others take away her boyfriend.
If that store clerk was interested in Kuang Yu,
then she would just act contrary to her wish, displaying closeness with Kuang Yu to make her feel ill inside.
Walking towards the store exit, Jiang Wan twisted her hips with defiance, feeling quite smug.
The store clerk was experienced, having encountered many of such types.
Someone as low-level as Jiang Wan couldn’t really affect her mood.
She glanced down at the receipt she just took and thought her performance was secured.
She raised her eyes to see Kuang Yu and Jiang Wan turning to leave the store.
Her lips curled into a disdainful smile.
The man seemed undoubtedly wealthy, but the woman’s level was too low, probably won’t be long before she’s dumped.
After all, she wasn’t presentable, taking her out would be embarrassing.
Wondering if the man’s eyes were functioning properly.
