Passing the display window, Mimi stepped into the store with a happy mood.
Two fashionably dressed saleswomen sat in the counter, originally chatting happily. Upon hearing the automatic door open, they both raised their heads and looked towards her. Mimi smiled and nodded at them. The two saleswomen exchanged glances, their li
“Wenli, look at her appearance. She’s probably a poor girl who has wandered into the wrong store, thinking we sell cheap roadside goods,” one of the saleswomen sneered coldly.
“I’ll handle this myself,” the woman named Wenli immediately stood up, walking in pointed high heels with a haughty posture, approaching Mimi and looking her up and down with a contemptuous gaze.
“Hey! Little girl, how did you get in here? Don’t you know we only sell high-end branded items?”
“Branded?” Mimi had no idea what that meant.
“You clearly don’t understand what branded means,” Wenli casually flipped open the collar of a dress, showing her the label, “See this tag? It’s a masterpiece by a famous French designer. This is what a brand is—”
“Wow! No wonder the cut is so elegant, and this fabric…” Mimi reached out, wanting to feel the fabric’s texture.
“Stop! Don’t touch!” Wenli immediately scolded harshly, slapping away her hand, “This dress costs 80,000! In New Taiwan dollars, not Japanese yen.”
Mimi opened her mouth in surprise, looking shocked, “Eight, eight eight… eight ten thousand?!” How could this be?! Eight ten thousand!

If you can’t afford it, quickly leave, and don’t dirty our store’s clothes. These clothes are so expensive, you can’t afford to pay for damages,” Wenli pushed Mimi away, preventing her from touching the beautiful dress. An embarrassed blush instantly spread across her cheeks. Mimi realized the saleswoman didn’t welcome her at all, and a sense of inferiority suddenly overwhelmed her.
