Chapter 1478: Chapter 1478: All This Trouble for Nothing! (3rd Update)
"Ah!"
The sales assistant missed Young Master Ding, and staggered, she exclaimed, seemingly about to fall to the ground.
"Miss, are you okay?"
Fortunately, Ye Haochuan was walking behind Young Master Ding. He timely reached out his hand to support the sales assistant, avoiding the awkward scene of her falling to the ground.
"Hmph!"
Zhu Wenjing glanced at Young Master Ding, then looked at Ye Haochuan, before letting out a displeased snort. It was unclear whether her displeasure was directed at Young Master Ding or Ye Haochuan for supporting the sales assistant.
"Hey, what are you doing? Let go of me quickly, if you don’t, I’m going to scream harassment!"
After steadied herself, the sales assistant realized she was in the arm of a stranger, and this man’s attire clearly didn’t seem like someone who possessed Spirit Crystals. Moreover, she was worried Young Master Ding might get upset because of this and ignore her from now on.
Damn it, I’m really getting no thanks for this!
Ye Haochuan sneered, then loosened his grip and let go of the pretty sales assistant. Since she liked falling, why should he play hero?
Boom~
After losing Ye Haochuan’s support, the pretty sales assistant hit her head right on the floor.
"Pfft!"
Zhu Wenjing, who had been keeping a straight face, couldn’t help but laugh the moment she saw this scene. She thought to herself, this Ye Haochuan is really bad; he definitely did that on purpose!
"Ouch!"
The sales assistant, clutching her head, glared at Ye Haochuan, saying hatefully: "What do you mean? Are you trying to cause trouble?"
"Miss, you’re the one who asked me to let go, right?"
Ye Haochuan shrugged, put on an innocent look, and retorted: "Isn’t that the case?"
"You..."
The sales assistant suddenly found herself at a loss for words. Wasn’t this her own request?
"Hehe."
Young Master Ding couldn’t help but cover his mouth, laughing quietly, when he saw the situation. Earlier, he felt quite displeased after being embarrassed by Ye Haochuan.
However, now that he saw the sales assistant embarrassed by Ye Haochuan, for some reason, he felt a lot better inside.
"Young Master Ding?"
Young Master Ding’s laughter immediately caught the sales assistant’s attention. Remembering that she had made such a fool of herself in front of Young Master Ding, her face flushed red with embarrassment, and she felt deeply regretful.
"I asked you to let go, and you actually let go. If I ask you to eat crap, why don’t you do it!"
So she turned her head and glared angrily at Ye Haochuan.
She blamed Ye Haochuan for all this, without considering that without him, she would have fallen herself.
"What did you say?"
Before Ye Haochuan could speak, Zhu Wenjing wasn’t having any of it. In her view, Ye Haochuan was on her side, so she could say whatever she wanted, but others couldn’t.
Hehe, this girl really stands up for me!
Ye Haochuan didn’t take the sales assistant’s words to heart. To him now, those at the mere Foundation Establishment Stage were people from a different world than his.
He only saw her as a barking dog losing its mind. On the contrary, it was Zhu Wenjing’s words that made him secretly delighted.
"I... I... I..."
Seeing Zhu Wenjing’s face cold as frost, the sales assistant was immediately tongue-tied. Although Zhu Wenjing was only wearing a white shirt and ripped jeans.
As a sales assistant, she could tell that this girl in front of her was definitely a rich lady; otherwise, she wouldn’t have this kind of aura.
"Hmph! Watch your words."
Zhu Wenjing saw the sales assistant’s expression lose interest, grabbed Ye Haochuan’s hand, and headed towards the stairs to the second floor. The good stuff at Thousand Treasures Pavilion was upstairs.
Although such an incident happened at the entrance, it didn’t spoil Zhu Wenjing’s mood.
"Let’s go."
Ye Haochuan held Zhu Wenjing’s small hand, feeling its smoothness and bounce. His eyes uncontrollably wandered to places he shouldn’t, and his mind was filled with wandering thoughts.
Wow!
Young Master Ding, with red eyes, watched Zhu Wenjing once again walk hand in hand with Ye Haochuan.
His heart felt as if it was pierced by steel needles, causing unbearable pain. The recurring distress twisted his face.
"Hmph, a pretty boy living off a woman!"
At this moment, the sales assistant murmured softly. However, all the cultivators present were at the Core Formation Stage, so no matter how quietly she spoke, it couldn’t be hidden.
"What did you say?"
Zhu Wenjing turned her head and gave her a fierce glare.
As for Ye Haochuan, his mind was filled with improper thoughts, and he even secretly activated Perspective to scan around Zhu Wenjing, so he didn’t have time to respond to the sales assistant.
"Sorry... I’m sorry."
The sales assistant shrank her neck, her voice guilty.
"Hmph! If I hear you speaking nonsense again, I won’t hesitate to give you a beating!"
Zhu Wenjing turned her head and stepped onto the second floor. To her, the sales assistant was just a minor character. If she hadn’t insulted Ye Haochuan, Zhu Wenjing wouldn’t even bother with her.
"Get up."
Instead, it was Young Master Ding who extended his hand and helped the sales assistant up. He had a vague feeling that this sales assistant might be useful to him, after all, the enemy of an enemy is a friend.
In his mind, he was obviously opposed to Ye Haochuan, and this had no doubt. Since the sales assistant had also upset Ye Haochuan, they were opposed as well.
"Young Master Ding!"
The sales assistant didn’t expect Young Master Ding would help her up, and suddenly, she felt struck by happiness. She had been fantasizing about Young Master Ding’s care, and didn’t expect it to come true today.
"Are you alright?"
As Young Master Ding helped her up, he took the opportunity to feel her up a few times. Zhu Wenjing had already reached the second floor, so he had fewer qualms.
"Mmhmm..."
The sales assistant went limp all over and happened to collapse against Young Master Ding. She thought to herself, if Young Master Ding married her, she could really be considered to have flown up to become a Phoenix.
"Mm, let’s go, accompany me upstairs to take a look."
Young Master Ding nodded and smiled slightly, helped her up, and then shook his fan heading towards the second floor.
"Alright, alright!"
The sales assistant hurriedly followed, rearranging her attire while running. She wanted to show her most perfect side to Young Master Ding.
Looking at Young Master Ding’s previous demeanor, he seemed interested in her. If she could seize the opportunity to please Young Master Ding, he might just take her back.
Meanwhile, Zhu Wenjing and Ye Haochuan had already arrived at the Treasure-Level Magical Artifact area on the second floor.
"Wow! So many Treasure-Level Magical Artifacts! What should I choose?"
Zhu Wenjing turned in circles but she couldn’t seem to find a Magical Artifact that satisfied her. She felt these artifacts were good but not quite to her liking.
"Ye Haochuan, what do you think of this sword?"
Zhu Wenjing pointed at a hollowed-out Treasure-Level Early Stage longsword, asking with anticipation. In her view, regardless of whether she found anything better, she’d settle for this one.
