Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg-Chapter 628: Coming Together
"Alright!" The salesperson responded happily, then quickly calculated the bill. It came to twenty-two thousand yuan, exactly double the previous seven thousand Jiang Xue spent.
Seeing this price, Lu Ling smugly asked Jiang Xue, who was resting nearby, "Jiang Xue, my bill is much higher than yours. Do you want to pick out a few more items?"
"Thank you, but let’s talk after you pay." Jiang Xue replied mildly, not taking Lu Ling’s provocation seriously.
Any man with eyesight wouldn’t willingly spend money for nothing, right? But Lu Ling still thought everyone was blind.
As time passed by, another half hour went by, yet Ouyang Yi still hadn’t arrived, making Lu Ling feel anxious. Secretly, she thought, perhaps Ouyang Yi was going to stand her up.
Otherwise, based on past experiences, he should have been here by now. But now, more than an hour had passed, and he still hadn’t come.
If he didn’t come, she’d lose face big time today.
At this moment, Lu Ling didn’t realize that even if Ouyang Yi came, she’d lose face just the same.
As time went on, it wasn’t just Lu Ling who was worried; her followers and the store employees were also concerned.
So many clothes, and the bill was ready. If they had to be returned, she’d get her wages docked.
"Lu Ling, will the person you’re waiting for really come?" someone beside her asked. It wasn’t that they doubted, but too much time had passed without him showing up. If he was just speaking casually, they’d all lose face.
Of course, Lu Ling would lose the most face. But since they came with her, if Lu Ling lost face, they wouldn’t fare much better either.
"Exactly, Lu Ling, could he be lying to you? If he was coming, he should’ve been here by now, right?"
"Yeah, why don’t you call and ask again, Lu Ling?"
Lu Ling was already worried about Ouyang Yi standing her up, and now, hearing her companions’ words, she became even more anxious.
"Lu Ling, what are you staring for? Make the call." Her companions saw her take out her phone but not dial the number, so they gave her a push.
"I’m calling now!" Lu Ling snapped back to reality and started dialing. However, before she finished dialing the number, she saw a familiar figure appear in the hallway outside. So, she stopped dialing and dashed out.
"Ah Yi, you came!" Seeing Ouyang Yi, Lu Ling was all smiles. He came; he didn’t stand her up. That was great.
Seeing Lu Ling suddenly run out, her followers and the salesperson were taken aback. Then they all looked up, seeing Lu Ling coming back in with a man.
Upon seeing who it was, smiles appeared on the followers’ faces. They knew Ouyang Yi and were aware of his pursuit of Lu Ling.
Seeing it was Ouyang Yi, the followers felt relieved. To them, Ouyang Yi cared so much about Lu Ling, buying her a few clothes wouldn’t make him blink, not to mention anything else.
Ouyang Yi accompanied Lu Ling inside but remained silent all along. The moment he entered the store, he started looking around, and when he finally spotted Jiang Xue sitting in the rest area, a slight smile appeared on his lips.
But when he noticed that sitting in the rest area along with Jiang Xue was Mu Qiancheng, the slight smile stiffened, and he felt an urge to teach Lu Ling a lesson.
Damn it, she only mentioned Jiang Xue being there, not Mu Qiancheng. If he had known Mu Qiancheng was there too, he wouldn’t have come no matter what.
