SECOND CHANCE TO LOVE YOU AGAIN - Season 1 Episode 42

“I want this dress!!”

Hearing the voice, one end of Yue Ling’s lip curl upward into a smirk.

‘Ah, they always say enemies tend to meet on narrow roads. I suppose today must be a narrow day.’

Yue Ling turned her head to the side and looked down at the girl.

At the same time, the girl also looks at Yue Ling, but because she was only 167cm, she had to slightly tilt her head back to look up.

The girls eyes lit up when she sees Yue Ling’s face.

“Senior Han!”

Yue Ling nod her head, “Junior Ning.”

“Miss Ning, how can I help you?” The same worker who greeted Yue Ling at the door walks up to the two woman.

Today was her luckiest day to be able to assist Ning Mei. She’s seen Ning Mei in almost all the magazines in Imperial.

Being greeted first, Ning Mei sneer inside. Finally, someone sees her instead of Han Yue Ling.

She wanted to slap Yue Ling’s face and tell her that she, Ning Mei was more important than Yue Ling. But of course she couldn’t, just not yet, she still needed to maintain her image.

So, in the softest voice she could make, she lower her head, “I wanted this dress..” her index finger pointing to the lavender mermaid dress on the mannequin, “b-but…..” her eyes moistened and she glance at Yue Ling.

The worker looked at Ning Mei then to Yue Ling. Her eyes sizing up Yue Ling then Ning Mei.

Yue Ling was tall and very very beautiful, even her outfit was nicely styled, but the worker didn’t know what brand they were. Whereas Ning Mei always wore top designer brands she was familiar with.

Today, Ning Mei wore a red plaid princess button dress and black stockings with white ankle booties. Over her outfit was a navy blue trench coat.

Every piece of clothing Ning Mei has on is from Essence’s fashion line.

Plus, Ning Mei was a loyal customer at Essence, while this was the worker’s first time seeing Yue Ling.

Guessing that Ning Mei was more wealthier and well known, the worker decided to help Ning Mei instead.

She glare at Yue Ling like a royalty finding a servant in disgust, then she made a 180 degree turn of expression to Ning Mei and smile.

“Miss Ning, since you saw the dress first, it is likely yours.”

Yue Ling: “…”

Ning Mei jumped in joy inside. Finally, she beats the slut at something, but she hid her feelings. Continuing with her innocent facade, she glance hesitantly at Yue Ling.

“Senior Han, I… you also want the dress.. right?”

Yue Ling looked at her junior indifferently, she thought, ‘Ning Mei ah, do you really think I can’t see your stupid facade? You’ve already crossed my bottom line when you drugged my drink. Did you stop to think about what I went through?’

She wanted to punch Ning Nei’s annoying face, but she stopped herself. For now, she’ll play along with Ning Mei’s little game.

But of course, was she going to be nice? Nope!

Yue Ling shrug her shoulders, “If Junior Ning wants the dress then she can have it. I don’t NEED it.”

She purposely emphasize the word ‘need’.

Ning Mei clench her fists tightly, her nails digging into her palms.

She wasn’t close to Yue Ling, they’ve actually only met a few times when Yue Ling came to China for photoshoots or runways in the past.

They had spoken to each other, but it was more of simple greetings between a senior and a junior at work.

Just from listening to Yue Ling’s words, she could hear the mocking tone in it.

Ning Mei bit her lower lip, “Senior Han, if you also want the dress, I can step down and let you have it. I won’t fight for it with you. I mean it. I really do.”

Yue Ling: “….”

Ning Mei looked like a kind and innocent junior who has respect for her senior.

However, in the worker’s eyes, she saw otherwise. In her understanding, Ning Mei looked like the younger sister who always had to hold out on everything she wants so her older sister can have it first.

She took a step forward, “Miss Ning, as a loyal customer of Essence, the dress is likely yours. You don’t need to ask for permission from another customer.”

Ning Mei pursed her lips, “But… I don’t want to look like I’m fighting with Senior Han over the dress.. others will think….” she didn’t finish her sentence and just glance up at Yue Ling.

The worker sneered at Yue Ling, “Ma’am, please be understanding. Miss Ning saw the dress first. So, I suggest—”

Yue Ling has on her famous maintained poker face. She even thought about placing a call to Liu Shan to bring some popcorn over so the both of them can sit down and watch Ning Mei’s good acting.

If Ning Mei was an actress instead of a model, Yue Ling wouldn’t be surprise if the little girl won an award.

In the end, she didn’t want to continue watching Ning Mei’s stupid facade, so she interrupted the worker.

“Like I said, I don’t need the dress. If she wants it, she can have it. Besides, I don’t even see anyone fighting with her for it. So, if you’ll excuse me, I don’t want to waste my time.”

Ning Mei: “….”

Worker: “….”

Yue Ling didn’t wait for their response or look at the two woman, she just brush pass them and continue with her shopping.

Her personality was, be nice to her and she will be nice to you. But if someone decides to test her bottom line, don’t blame her for being ruthless.

After all, the world is a cruel place.
