Chapter 429: Xia Ru Has Her Ways
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Her academic performance had always been at an average level. Even if she were to return to high school, it would be best for her to start from the second year.
It would be ideal if she could hire a teacher for tutoring; that way, her chances of getting into a good university would significantly improve.
However, now that Wen Shu had entrusted the decision to Xia Ru, she didn’t dare to bring up these conditions.
Wasn’t Xia Wan the cousin that Xia Ru mentioned?
The relationship between Xia Wan and Xia Ru was extremely strained, and now Xia Ru had another cousin. She wondered if this cousin had a good relationship with Xia Ru.
If this cousin didn’t have a good relationship with Xia Ru, it would still be possible for them to be in the same class. She could get closer by speaking ill of Xia Ru behind her back.
But if this cousin had a good relationship with Xia Ru, then this cousin might become Xia Ruts informant. Xia Ru would be able to monitor her academic progress at any time.
Ke Xin smiled awkwardly. “I should think about it first. If I go straight to the third year, I might not be able to keep up.”
“I think some customers might be coming to the shop again. I’ll go and help.”
She felt that she needed to reconsider. It would be best if she had the opportunity to interact with Xia Rut s other cousin.
Ke Xin followed another shop assistant to the first floor to continue selling clothes, while Xia Ru and Wen Shu returned to the room on the second floor.
Xia Ru immediately wrapped her arms around Wen Shu’s neck and acted coquettishly. “I’m sorry. I was too impulsive earlier. I thought you were getting interested in Ke Xin and getting tired of me. That’s why I got so angry.”
“You have to understand that a girl only gets angry and unreasonable when she cares about a man. If I didn’t care about you, I wouldn’t have lost my temper with you over such a small matter.”
Xia Ru was skilled at comforting people, and Wen Shu was quickly won over by her.
An hour later, when they came down again, they seemed to be very close.
Ke Xin lowered her head, her eyes glistening dimly.
Another shop assistant, Lu Ping, said, “Boss, there aren’t many people in our shop today. I saw that the shop across the street is crowded. Are they holding an event without us knowing?”
Xia Ru was already holding back her anger. When she heard Lu Ping’s report, she immediately said, “I’m going to visit my uncle and aunt to find out about their shop.”
Wen Shu nodded and casually picked up a bunch of grapes, handing them to Xia Ru. “If you go empty-handed, it might arouse their suspicion. Take this bunch of grapes and say that we just bought them and specially sent them over.”
“Alright.’
Xia Ru took the grapes and went to Xia Wan’s shop.
Xia Wan was still in class, while Yan Han and Xia Hai were busy with their own tasks.
Even though it was almost noon, there were still many customers in the shop.
After entering the shop, Xia Ru noticed that there was a small whiteboard on each clothing rack with “20% off on all items” written on it.
The person in charge of accounting at the counter was Zhou En, who recognized Xia Ru.
She immediately stopped Xia Ru and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Xia Ru picked up the grapes in her hand. “The secretary bought a few bunches of grapes. I thought they tasted good, so I sent them over.”
Zhou En looked at her with a half-smile. “Our shop is crowded with customers, and you only brought a bunch of grapes. Aren’t you being too stingy?”
“I think your gift is insincere. Your main purpose is to find out why there are so many customers in our shop, right?”
“If you want to know about our shop, just come over openly. Why make excuses?”
“I’m also curious. We’re both from the Xia family. Why is Xia Wan so generous, but you’re so stingy?”
Xia Ru was furious to be compared to him.
Feeling inferior to Xia Wan had always been a thorn in her side.
When a customer visited her shop and praised Zhou En, saying that she was indeed a graduate of a prestigious university with excellent math skills, it hurt
Xia Rut s self-esteem once more. Her own academic qualifications were lacking.
She didn’t know that Zhou En only occasionally helped out at Xia Wan’s shop and wasn’t a regular employee. Xia Ru assumed Zhou En worked there full time.
Disdainfully, she remarked, ‘What’s there to be proud of? Even if you graduated from a famous school, you’re still just running a store.”
Zhou En wasn’t at all bothered by Xia Ruts words, as she had her own achievements and awards to boost her confidence..
