Chapter 888: Chapter 876: Are You Xiao Jingjing?
“Let go of ! I can walk on my own! You hear …”
With the hustling footsteps of two store employees, Yang Xiaoxiao’s shouting gradually faded away.
The store manager handed the packaged formal dress to Qiao Jing with both hands and sincerely said, “I am very sorry. I didn’t know you were Miss Ni’s friend. If I had known, even if she were a VIP custor at Yueji Pavilion, I wouldn’t have sold the dress to her.”
“I hope you’ll be generous enough to forgive my previous mistake.”
Qiao Jing reached out to take the dress and replied flatly, “It’s understandable why you did that. There’s nothing to forgive.”
Actually, at first, the store manager was fair, and even ntioned that purchases should follow a first-co-first-served basis, intending to sell the dress to them.
But it was only after Yang Xiaoxiao showed her VIP identity that the manager suddenly changed his mind.
Of course, the manager’s change was understandable, given that VIPs do receive privileges that ordinary custors don’t.
If there weren’t any privileges, why would people want to be VIPs?
So, you can’t bla the manager for being unfair.
Ni Yue cast a warning glance at the manager and said sternly, “Be careful next ti. If you encounter unruly custors like that foolish woman again, regardless of whether she’s a VIP, just kick them out!”
“Understood, Miss Ni,” the manager responded respectfully.
Ni Yue withdrew her gaze and turned to Qiao Jing, linking arms with her and smilingly said, “I feel we have a connection. Do you have ti? If so, let’s grab a coffee at a nearby cafe and have a good chat.”
For so reason, she just felt an inexplicable desire to get closer to this person.
Maybe it was because this person helped her get back her purse, or maybe because this person feels sohow similar to Xiao Jingjing…
Qiao Jing glanced at Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin, inquiring their thoughts with her eyes.
She had a good impression of Ni Yue as well, and chatting to make a friend wouldn’t be bad.
But since she was out with her two sisters, she had to check their opinions.
Receiving Qiao Jing’s gaze, Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin understood.
Qiao Hong smiled and told Qiao Jing, “Since Miss Ni invites you so warmly, you should go with her. We’ll continue shopping and ssage you when we’re heading back.”
Before Qiao Jing could say anything, Ni Yue had already pulled her outside, saying as they walked, “The coffee at that place is quite good, you’ll definitely like it.”
The cafe wasn’t far away, and they soon arrived.
Facing each other at a uniquely styled vintage small round table, Qiao Jing and Ni Yue sat.
As they sipped coffee and chatted casually, they found themselves increasingly connected, with a harmonious atmosphere as if they weren’t newly acquainted.
After chatting for a while, Ni Yue looked fixedly at Qiao Jing and couldn’t help saying, “When you helped catch the thief and retrieve my purse earlier, I already felt you were very much like our Xiao Jingjing, and now, after chatting, I feel you’re even more like our Xiao Jingjing!”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Jing grew curious about this Xiao Jingjing that Ni Yue ntioned.
She raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, “Who is Xiao Jingjing?”
“Xiao Jingjing, she…”
Just as Ni Yue started speaking, she recalled the tsunami from four years ago, which, despite not witnessing it, caused her sorrow upon hearing about it.
Their Xiao Jingjing, such a wonderful person, how did she end up encountering such an unfortunate event…
Thinking of this, Ni Yue sighed and couldn’t suppress a sad expression on her face, finally muttering, “Such a pity…”
Seeing her like this, Qiao Jing could roughly guess that this Xiao Jingjing probably faced so unfortunate incident.
Given the situation, she avoided further inquiry, as it would be like reopening old wounds.
At this mont, Qiao Jing received a ssage from Qiao Lin, saying they were almost done shopping and were planning to head back, asking her to et at the Shopping Mall entrance.
After reading the ssage, Qiao Jing put away her phone and said goodbye to Ni Yue.
“My two sisters have contacted , I’ll head out now, see you next ti.”
Saying that, Qiao Jing stood up, ready to leave.
“Wait, wait!”
Ni Yue quickly called out, also standing up.
Qiao Jing paused her steps, sowhat puzzled, looking at Ni Yue.
Ni Yue chuckled, then said, “I forgot to ask earlier; I still don’t know your na.”
With that, Qiao Jing realized she hadn’t introduced herself and imdiately chuckled, “I’m Qiao Jing.”
Upon hearing this, Ni Yue was initially stunned, then suddenly got excited, and directly hugged Qiao Jing.
She was both excited and agitated, stumbling over her words, “Xiao Jingjing, so you didn’t die. Why didn’t you co back sooner if you were alive, and why are you playing tricks on like this.”
“To tease , you even changed your appearance like this. Seriously, this disguise is too real, can’t spot a flaw…”
While saying this, Ni Yue reached out to tug at Qiao Jing’s face.
Qiao Jing reacted quickly, raising a hand to block and simultaneously breaking free from Ni Yue’s bear hug, swiftly stepping back.
At a safe distance, Qiao Jing secretly sighed in relief.
Luckily, she dodged quickly, or her fake skin would have been exposed.
Explaining this situation would have been quite troubleso, and she disliked trouble, so staying undiscovered was best.
Qiao Jing’s reaction left Ni Yue montarily stunned, suspiciously looking at her, “Xiao Jingjing, what’s wrong?”
“You’ve mistaken for soone else; I’m not your acquaintance, Xiao Jingjing.”
Qiao Jing tersely explained.
But Ni Yue didn’t believe her. She smiled, reaching again for Qiao Jing’s hand, “Oh co on, don’t joke with like this; you just said you’re Qiao Jing. So why keep teasing ?”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Jing’s face showed a hint of helplessness.
Since she’s been misunderstood before, explaining now was routine for her.
“I’m Qiao Jing, Qiao like the tree, and Jing as in scenery.”
After saying that, Qiao Jing felt a bit gloomy.
Is my na that common?
Why are there so many people with this homophonic na?
Or is it possible that Young Master Xu, Xu Moqian, and now Ni Yue are actually mistaking her for the sa person?
That can’t be such a coincidence, right?!
While Qiao Jing was pondering this internally, Ni Yue also ca to her senses.
Realizing she had mistaken her for soone else, Ni Yue apologized quickly, then muttered to herself, “Yeah, Xiao Jingjing wouldn’t play such a joke on ; she isn’t one for jokes…”
With the misunderstanding cleared up, Qiao Jing intended to leave.
Ni Yue held her again and said, “Let’s add each other on WeChat; from now on, we’re good friends. If you need anything, just let know, I’ll be there without hesitation.”
Qiao Jing enjoyed her straightforwardness, and imdiately smiled, took out her phone, and exchanged WeChat contacts with her, then said goodbye as she left.
