Although her adoptive parents had died in a car accident, her adoptive parents’ neighbors were very good to her. She had to the mall to buy some gifts back for them.
When she arrived at the mall, Lin Han strolled around leisurely. In the past, she rarely came to such a place, so now that she had the time to go out and take a good look, she found everything new and interesting.
“How much is this dress?” Lin Han saw a dress that an auntie in her 40’s or 50’s was wearing. It was more suitable for Auntie Liu next door, so she casually asked about the price.
The salesperson saw Lin Han and smiled. “This one is not expensive. It’s on sale for 3,988 yuan. The quality is very good. After wearing it, I guarantee that it won’t deform. Moreover, it will really show off your figure.”
“It’s a little expensive.”
It was not that Lin Han was reluctant to buy it, but Aunt Liu had always been conservative and dislikes overspending.
When she was young, Aunt Liu liked to take her to the market to shop for clothes. Sometimes, when she was not satisfied with the price, she would negotiate to lower it. After that, she would happily use the money she saved to buy cotton candy for Lin Han as a treat.
Aunt Liu had worked hard for her family all her life, but she had never worn clothes and shoes that cost more than 100 yuan.
If she had bought such expensive clothes for her, she would have been heartbroken. However, the clothes were indeed beautiful. She decided to browse and to look at something else.
When the salesperson heard Lin Han say that it was a little expensive, the smile on her face froze.
At first, when she saw that Lin Han was very good-looking, she thought that Lin Han must be a rich lady. She did not expect her to be a poor person. She simply did not want to pay attention to Lin Han anymore and let her walk around.
Lin Han did not pay attention to the salesperson’s gaze. She saw a white suit jacket that was quite suitable for Aunt Liu’s daughter. She heard that Aunt Liu’s daughter had an interview after graduating from university, so she wanted to buy one for her.
“I’m sorry, that shirt is white and it’s easy to get dirty. If you don’t want to buy it, don’t touch it,” the salesperson hurriedly said when she saw Lin Han reach out to touch the white shirt.
Lin Han was stunned for a moment and frowned slightly. It was then that she realized that the salesperson was looking down on her.
“If I don’t touch it, how will I know if the material is good? If it’s not good, will I buy it?” Lin Han glanced at her coldly and said indifferently.
Hearing Lin Han’s words, the salesperson’s attitude was still cold. “This dress is even more expensive. You can’t afford it.”
“How do you know that I can’t afford it?” Lin Han was angry and amused. She really thought that this salesperson was funny.
She had originally thought that this floor was more affordable. The prices on the upper floors were even more expensive. Aunt Liu and the others would not accept the gifts even if she bought them back.
“Lin Han? It really is you. I thought I was mistaken.” Suddenly, a pleasantly surprised voice sounded. Lin Han turned around and saw three girls walking in. The leader looked very surprised when she saw Lin Han.
However, Lin Han could not figure out who this girl was.
“I’m Xu Jiaojiao. We were classmates in Qishan Village High School. Don’t you remember me? After I graduated from junior high school, my family moved to Beijing.”
Xu Jiaojiao looked Lin Han up and down. Although Lin Han looked better than before, the clothes he was wearing were still very ordinary, and there was no branded logo. She probably graduated and came here to look for a job.
When Lin Han heard what Xu Jiaojiao said, she seemed to have some impression of her. However, she rarely remembered people that were unrelated to her.
“Oh,” Lin Han replied faintly. After saying that, she went to look at the clothes.
Xu Jiaojiao looked at Lin Han’s cold and aloof look and frowned slightly. So, she pulled her two new friends to the side and discussed in a low voice.
“This is the one I was talking about. At that time, she was the one who was the most beautiful. Rumors were that she’s a bastard, and her parents picked her up from somewhere outside.”
“She was especially bad to her younger sister. Her younger sister was on good terms with us, so she often ridiculed her.”
The two girls who were with Xu Jiaojiao also started to mock her when they heard this. “How can she be like this? She lives in someone else’s house, yet she treats them so badly. She’s gone too far, hasn’t she?”
