"Zhao Yixin, I've had enough of you!"
Mu Linjing could no longer stand Zhao Yixin's attitude towards Wei Yumeng. She strode forward and slapped Zhao Yixin.
"To be honest, I really can't understand how Yumeng could have been friends with someone like you in the past! Clearly, someone like you doesn't deserve her kindness!"
Mu Linjing felt that everything Wei Yumeng had done was not worth it. Wei Yumeng had let Zhao Yixin off the hook precisely because of their past relationship.
This also showed that Wei Yumeng had never given up on her friendship with Zhao Yixin.
But why was it for such a woman?
Wei Yumeng quickly stepped between them: "Jingjing, what are you doing?"
After speaking, Wei Yumeng looked at Zhao Yixin: "I'm sorry, Jingjing's actions were indeed a bit impulsive. I hope you don't mind. I apologize on her behalf."
Mu Linjing looked at Wei Yumeng siding with Zhao Yixin and felt a pang of heartache.
She felt that it was not worth it for Wei Yumeng, but why was Wei Yumeng now leaning towards Zhao Yixin?
"Fine, it's my meddling. You two are best friends who haven't seen each other for years. It's just me... it's just me who's the outsider."
After saying that, Mu Linjing rushed out of the jewelry store.
"Jingjing!" Wei Yumeng rushed to chase after her, but when she ran out the door, Mu Linjing was nowhere to be seen.
How could it have turned out like this?
Wei Yumeng was a little annoyed. It was precisely because of her past relationship with Zhao Yixin that she didn't want Zhao Yixin to bear today's responsibility. Moreover, there was no real loss to the store.
She had been wholeheartedly hoping for reconciliation with Zhao Yixin, but had overlooked Mu Linjing's feelings.
Zhan Mohan walked over and patted Mu Linjing's shoulder to comfort her: "Don't worry, I'll have Yichen talk to her first. I'll let you know if there's any result."
Wei Yumeng nodded.
She then returned to the store to continue dealing with Zhao Yixin's matter.
Zhao Yixin touched her slapped cheek, still in a daze.
She knew very well that Wei Yumeng cared about their past feelings, which was why she had let her off.
It was precisely because of this that she didn't want Wei Yumeng to forgive her. After what she had done to Wei Yumeng, she didn't deserve forgiveness.
"Since you have proven the store's innocence, I will take responsibility for what I should."
As Zhao Yixin spoke, she took the contract from Fang Xun's hand and signed her name.
"In this world, I can owe anyone a favor, but I will never bow my head to you, Wei Yumeng!"
After saying this, Zhao Yixin strode out of the jewelry store.
The onlookers were all stunned. What started as a customer dispute now seemed more like a personal vendetta.
However, as the matter ended, the passersby gradually dispersed.
But Wei Yumeng's mood was not good. Why couldn't she reconcile with Zhao Yixin?
As for Mu Linjing, she still couldn't let it go. She decided that after sorting out everything, she would proactively apologize to Mu Linjing.
After a while, Wei Yumeng noticed that even though the passersby had left, one person was still lingering outside the store, peering in.
Wei Yumeng was a little curious and walked over to inquire: "Excuse me, sir, is there anything else?"
The other party smiled at Wei Yumeng: "Madam, I believe your husband should know me."
As expected, Zhan Mohan walked over and directly called out the man's name: "Xia Zhou? What are you doing here?"
"You know each other?" Wei Yumeng asked, confused.
"It's like this, I met Mr. Zhan abroad before. At that time, I was just a small employee. Later, with Mr. Zhan's guidance, I started my own company. I've just returned to investigate the domestic market."
Wei Yumeng looked at Zhan Mohan. She had never heard of such a thing.
"To be honest, I was originally investigating the most popular jewelry store in this mall today, and I happened to find your place. I also saw what happened just now."
Xia Zhou said with a smile: "I must admit that Madam is a rare intelligent woman, so I have a humble request."
Wei Yumeng instinctively turned to look at Zhan Mohan. Since Zhan Mohan knew Xia Zhou, his opinion was important.
Zhan Mohan just smiled: "You can decide for yourself."
"Mr. Xia, please state it," Wei Yumeng then said.
"This is my business card. The company I run now is a jewelry store, and all the ornaments and jewelry are specially designed by our company. Therefore, I would like to cooperate with you and have you be our trial operation point in China."
Wei Yumeng thought about it. In fact, she originally opened this jewelry store as a hobby. She really didn't know if such a small shop could handle this responsibility.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xia, but I still hope you will confirm carefully. Do you really want to trial operate in my small shop?"
"Of course," Xia Zhou smiled. "I have carefully investigated the situation of this mall, and I believe your place is indeed the most suitable."
Zhan Mohan also nodded: "I think this is indeed a good opportunity. I have also learned about Xia Zhou's company recently. Although the design style is niche, it is very popular abroad. This is the first time it has come to China."
Wei Yumeng thought about it again and then agreed: "I understand. Since Mr. Xia values us so much, we will naturally not disappoint Mr. Xia."
Afterward, the three of them went to a nearby restaurant to celebrate the successful cooperation and didn't leave until evening.
Mu Linjing returned home, feeling depressed.
She had left in a fit of jealousy at the time, but now that she had calmed down, she realized how impulsive she had been.
Making a scene with Wei Yumeng in front of so many people at her store was truly a foolish thing to do.
Thinking this, she took out her phone, intending to apologize to Wei Yumeng.
But at that moment, her phone rang. It was Wei Yumeng calling.
"Hello?" Wei Yumeng spoke first: "Jingjing, are you still angry with me?"
Mu Linjing was silent for a moment, then said: "Yumeng, I'm sorry. At that time... I really shouldn't have acted like that. I knew you hadn't seen her for a long time and felt sorry for her, but I caused you trouble in that situation."
"How can this be your fault!" Wei Yumeng sighed. "This is entirely my problem. You are my best friend, yet I ignored your feelings because of my guilt. I'm truly sorry."
At this point, they both laughed.
"Okay, what are we doing? It's not a big deal, is it?" Mu Linjing said. "It even made me realize how much I value you as a friend."
Wei Yumeng agreed: "Jingjing, I promise you, no matter what happens, we will always be best friends."
