Seeing the young lady Su entering the shop, shop manager hesitated, he knew that HwaHwa was a VIP specially instructed by Shop owner Zhou, but this young lady was Su Bai grand daughter of Prime Minister of Ming Qi, directly working under his majesty.
Feeling anxious he looked at Zhou Shen, who was secretly observing the scene, working in the business he was well aware of all the upper echelon of Ming Qi and Su Bai was one of their important client but for him no one was as important as HwaHwa, as she has picked him up from dirt when his own wife abandoned him. He could betray god but never HwaHwa.
He made eye contact with HwaHwa seeing her reassureance, he hinted to the Manager, informing him let things progress as they were progressing.
HwaHwa turned to see a young girl same age as Go Qing was standing behind her while arrogantly pointing at the red Qipao.
Seeing the young indolent girl, her lips smirked but she presented a stubborn pose " HwaHwa, greets Miss Su Bai. I believe this Qipao is liked by Miss Su Bai".
Su Bai smirked " Yes, indeed eldest Miss Go, I want this Qipao and as I believe it will suit me more a person of true blood". Arrogance on her lips with disdain in her face could be seen when she was calling HwaHwa eldest Miss Go, showing that Su Bai was balantly disrespectful towards her.
HwaHwa had no interest in this young lady but a thought made her smirk if by going against Su Bai, created issue with Go Kang then why not.
As Su Bai was about to reach for the Qipao, HwaHwa took hold of her hand " If Miss Su Bai, wish to take this Qipao, then I should receive a compensation for the set back I will suffer from having my dress stolen".
Su Bai felt her mouth fell open it was rare to meet someone so shameless, but before she could complain Li Qing jumped, she knew about Su Bai and she knew Go family cannot afford them as their enemies.
" Miss Su, please take the Qipao, it suits you better ignore this child, she is reckless".
Hurriedly Li Qing tried to resolve the issue.
But HwaHwa let her tears flow freely " Mother, since I understand things when young, I never got any new cloths from the family all were either leftover by Go Qing or even your maid Mo'er. As a young lady of the house I received the response that we need to live frugally, but now that for the first time you were buying something for me you let other person have my dress".
As tears were not enough, HwaHwa coughed viciously, with pitiful voice she spoke " Let's go mother, if you did not want to buy me clothes you could have said so, it's better I go back and rest some more, you can give me Qing'er dress to wear at concubine Mei's event".
Li Qing felt as if someone was twisting her gall bladder, if she refused the dress. Her image will be ruined they have yet to recover from Physician Bai debacle and now this will ruin their reputation and Go Kang will kill her or else, creating issue with Su Bai will also affect Go Kang career growth
Thus she could only fluster and mutter and could not say anything, while the noble ladies as her companion or as the customers of the shop were muttering and whispering.
Su Bai glared at HwaHwa " you wild adopted child, stop this pitiful act, who are you to take the dress that I wanted to wear, you should know your status, you are nothing but adopted brat brought to their house, who knows who gave birth to you".
HwaHwa felt her nails digging in her palm as she created a grudge against Su Bai in her heart, holding her tears she spoke hoarsely " So, young Miss Su has issue with adopted person, then you must dislike princess Ming Qian also, since she is the adopted daughter of previous Emperor, you must be questioning her parents also, should I consider that Prime Minister thinks the same".
