Chapter 345: Chapter 244: Dogs and Xu Jiucheng Not Allowed Inside_2

After sending Tang Xi ho, Gu Zhiyi returned to Shen Qingli’s place, staying with her through the night, embroidering until the next morning. Shen Qingli had pulled an all-nighter. Xia Yao had ordered wave-pattern embroidery on the cuffs and hem, which was very Chinese in style. Shen Qingli, busy rushing through the work, didn’t care about the more than ten needle pricks on her fingers.

She had grown numb, completely ignoring the pain at her fingertips.

ngng had been busy all night and planned to rest for a couple of hours in the early morning. Seeing Shen Qingli’s fingers, she felt heartache, “Sister Qingli, I think Xu Jiuye does it on purpose. He changes his lady companion every few weeks or a month at most, each ti bringing them here to order clothes. Sister Qingli, let’s not deal with him anymore. Next ti sothing like this happens, let’s just refuse. We don’t need to earn this kind of crappy money!”

Shen Qingli bit her lip and kept her head down, not speaking, just continuing to embroider.

ngng, feeling sorry for her, snatched the fabric from her hands.

“Stop embroidering; go get so sleep.”

All ten of Shen Qingli’s fingers were red, and her eyes were bloodshot, but at this mont, she stubbornly snatched the fabric back, ticulously smoothing it out, “ngng, you go sleep, don’t worry about , I’m fine. Have you forgotten? I’ve stayed up embroidering like this before. This is money we’re talking about. Once we deliver the clothes on ti, I’ll close the shop for two days and we can go relax.”

As she spoke, she gestured with her hands, while a smile as beautiful as a Magnolia flower graced her lips.

But in ngng’s eyes, it all seed so bitter.

Three days later, a black Land Rover pulled up in front of Qingli Custom Clothing Shop.

The man got out of the car in casual black attire. Xu Jiucheng removed the sunglasses from his nose, looking mockingly at the storefront. From the passenger side, a pair of slender white legs stepped out in black stilettos, and Xia Yao coiled her arm around Xu Jiucheng’s, acting coyly, “Jiuye, thank you for accompanying to pick up the clothes.”

Xu Jiucheng held the waist of the woman as they walked into the shop.

A sign reading ‘Closed’ was hanging at the entrance.

Upon pushing the door open, there wasn’t a soul inside.

The entire first floor was filled with fabrics spread on tables and hanging around the walls, but there was no one at the cash register. Xu Jiucheng confidently led Xia Yao upstairs, nearly bumping into ngng who was coming down.

ngng’s eyes widened, “Why are you here?”

Xia Yao humd, “Of course, we’re here to pick up the clothes. You haven’t finished them yet, have you? If you haven’t, that ans you owe a penalty fee. I don’t have ti to wait!”

ngng glared at Xu Jiucheng. If it were up to her, she would hang a sign on the door that read, ‘No Dogs or Xu Jiucheng Allowed’. If it weren’t for Xu Jiucheng pressuring Sister Qingli, she wouldn’t have ended up overworking to the point of hospitalization due to lack of rest over the past three days. Stomping her foot, she said, “Wait here, I’ll get the clothes for you.”

ngng turned around to fetch the clothes and handed them to Xia Yao in a carrier bag. Pointing to the door, she said, “Here are your clothes; you can leave now. Xu Jiuye, you’re not welco here! I hope you can show so self-respect!”

Xu Jiucheng gave ngng a disdainful glance.

ngng shuddered.

But she still stood up straight and bravely gestured for them to leave with an ‘out’ sign.

Xu Jiucheng clearly wasn’t interested in a lengthy exchange with ngng, “Where is Shen Qingli?”

His voice was cold as frost, “Offering ten tis the price, Shen Qingli has a lion’s appetite, greedy and vain. Does she not dare to see now?”

ngng frowned, “Sister Qingli is not here.”

Xu Jiucheng pushed past ngng and strode upstairs with long steps.

ngng stamped her foot and chased after him, “What are you doing? Who allowed you to co up? Sister Qingli isn’t here!”

The second floor was simple; though spacious, its layout was imdiately clear. Shen Qingli was indeed not there. He headed towards the third floor, but ngng stood in front of him with arms spread out, “You’re not allowed to go up there; the third floor is Sister Qingli’s private space. Custor, I hope you’ll stop here. Otherwise, I’ll call the police for trespassing into a private residence!”

Xia Yao examined the clothes; the embroidery was exquisite and the style was unique. She knew she would stand out on set wearing it. She caught up with Xu Jiucheng, “Jiuye, since she’s not here, let’s head back, shall we? Are you free for lunch today? Let’s dine at Qing Shui Tang, I’ve heard the restaurant is very stylish… I wonder if we can make a reservation….”

Xu Jiucheng’s face was stern as he pushed her away.

Xia Yao was stunned, but seeing that Xu Jiucheng looked upset, she didn’t dare to pursue further and stood quietly behind him.
