CHAPTER 608: CHAPTER 525 ARROGANT AND DOMINEERING

Mrs. Xu?

Bai Shasha nearly spat out the sip of juice in her mouth after hearing this. She struggled to swallow and pointed at Li Si, saying, "That title... I really need to get used to it! Feels so strange!"

Then she wailed at Li Si, "Si, I think I might have a case of pre-wedding jitters! What should I do?"

Li Si jokingly scolded her, "What else can you do? If there’s a problem, go find your Xu Er! Right, Xiao Ning?"

"Exactly! Shasha! I have Brother Xu’s number here. If you’re too shy to call him, I can help!" Leng Ning teased her, pulling out her phone.

Bai Shasha rolled her eyes in frustration, "Can’t you all stop messing with me?"

The next day, a weekend, Li Si accompanied Bai Shasha and Xu Er to Mo Si International to shop for home goods.

The group went to several stores; shopping here was indeed convenient.

After picking out items and settling the bill, they arranged for everything to be delivered to their new place altogether.

Xu Er got called away suddenly, leaving Bai Shasha and Li Si to continue browsing.

As soon as he left, Bai Shasha pointed to a chandelier overhead and asked Li Si, "Si, do you think this fits the décor style of our home?"

Li Si glanced up. She had visited Bai Shasha’s new house a few days ago and remembered the style leaned toward a European-inspired look, while this chandelier didn’t quite match.

"You should look at others!"

Before Xu Er left, both of them kept seeking Li Si’s opinion on every purchase, but they couldn’t agree, always choosing a compromise.

Bai Shasha also thought it was better to keep looking. They went up to the fourth floor via escalator, which specialized in bedding.

When it comes to weddings, of course, they had to pick something in red or magenta—festive colors.

Strolling and stopping, they finally found one they both liked.

The bedding set, displayed on one of the beds in the shop, was instantly appealing. Li Si glanced at the price tag—15,999 yuan.

Bai Shasha noticed the price too, but her mom had insisted that while Xu’s family would handle everything else, the bed and bedding had to be provided by her own family.

She hadn’t understood why at first, but Mrs. Bai had explained: in case the couple ever got into an argument, Bai Shasha could have the moral high ground to kick her husband out of bed.

When she told this to Li Si, Li Si laughed so hard, completely surprised by this reasoning from Mrs. Bai.

Seeing Li Si chuckling now, Bai Shasha knew exactly what she was recalling—her mom’s words.

"Si, what do you think of this one? I really like it!" Bai Shasha caressed the pattern on the bedsheet lovingly. It felt just right.

The ten-piece set was made of high-end jacquard satin, looking festive, luxurious, and elegant.

Li Si also thought it was a great choice. On this floor, they had visited several stores, but this set stood out.

Plus, since it was Bai Shasha’s family footing the bill, the price seemed acceptable.

"Looks good to me!"

"What’s the size of this set? Is it for a king-sized bed? Do you have other colors besides red? Is there brand-new stock?"

Bai Shasha turned to the sales assistant nearby.

The assistant, having followed them around for quite a while, could tell they were shopping for wedding bedding.

She was incredibly eager to help, "Ladies, you have excellent taste! This is the best set in our store! It’s sized for a king bed! Besides red, there’s also magenta, but we only have one set left for each color! Our store has been incredibly busy since opening—you probably noticed!"

"Plus, if you buy now, you can enjoy a 20% discount!"

Bai Shasha winked at Li Si—this sales assistant really knew how to talk!

"Alright, show me! If it feels right, I’ll take it!"

"Sure thing! Ladies, please wait here for a moment!"

The sales assistant’s face lit up with joy. She might just secure this big order! With less serious buyers, she wouldn’t have gone to so much effort.

Li Si laughed as she sat casually on a nearby chair to wait. Shopping was definitely a physical workout.

The assistant headed to the storeroom to retrieve the item while the two women chatted as they waited.

"The day after tomorrow is the wedding dress fitting. Si, could you come with me again?"

Bai Shasha tugged on Li Si’s hand, pleading, her puppy-dog eyes brimming with pitiful charm.

Li Si remained unmoved, "Can you let me rest a bit? Seriously!"

She’d been running around for Bai Shasha’s stuff nonstop these past few days.

"Alright! Hehe, I’ll check this out more carefully then!" Bai Shasha leaned back over, examining the bedding set.

"Hey! Pack this up for me!" A young woman in a red dress, heavily made up, barked haughtily, pointing at Bai Shasha.

Bai Shasha glanced over at her curiously—was this woman talking to her?

What kind of attitude was that? Bai Shasha wasn’t dressed as a store employee; as a customer, it was obvious.

The woman, seeing Bai Shasha not moving, raised her eyebrows sharply and glared at her, "What kind of service is this? Do you even want to keep your job?"

"We’re customers here buying things," Li Si stood up and retorted coldly.

The woman sneered at them disdainfully and scoffed.

She reached for the bedsheet of the set Bai Shasha had chosen, fondling it while muttering to herself, "Passable."

Bai Shasha decided to hold back, considering this was Li Si’s family’s mall. Arguing with unreasonable people wouldn’t achieve anything.

Just then, the sales assistant came back carrying a large gift box. Based on the image on the box, it was the bedding set.

She glanced at both sides and said, "Ladies, take a look. If you need anything, let me know!"

For now, she prioritized Bai Shasha and Li Si.

The bedding was unpacked, and Bai Shasha liked it. "Si, what do you think?"

Li Si agreed, "Looks good to me!"

"Alright then! I’ll take the red set! Twenty percent off, right? Write up the invoice!"

Her plan was to buy one set here and then check out another store for a different option.

That woman refused to back down, storming over to block the sales assistant, "No, I want this set! Write up an invoice for me now! I’ll go pay!"

The sales assistant froze for a moment. This red set was new, the only one left; everyone knew it was meant for weddings.

"I’m sorry, miss. How about this? These two ladies here had already decided on this set. The display set in-store—while newly replaced yesterday—can be boxed for you!"

"No way! I want the new one! Give them the display! I’m getting married; how can I not have new bedding? Hurry up! I don’t have time to waste!"

The woman loudly shouted, utterly self-righteous.

If she had spoken politely, Bai Shasha might have given in—after all, she could simply choose another store. It wasn’t like this red set was the only option available.

But given the woman’s attitude, there was no way she was going to back down.

Just as Bai Shasha was about to let loose, Li Si pulled her back. Li Si turned to the sales assistant and commanded, "We’re even more pressed for time. Go write up the invoice; we’ll get this packed ourselves."

Li Si was practically laughing in frustration—why was this woman acting so arrogant?

Without paying any attention to others, the two of them began packing pillowcases into the box.

The sales assistant tried to persuade the woman but was met with such an angry glare that she seemed ready to argue. In the end, the assistant sighed helplessly—customers were gods, and she couldn’t afford to offend anyone. She decided to go prepare the invoice instead.

"Put that down, didn’t you hear me? This mall is owned by my relatives! Go shop somewhere else!"

She added, pointing at the assistant to threaten her further, "I dare you to sell it to them! Do you want to keep your job?"
