"Lola...Li?" Arm-in-arm with her boyfriend, Lillian Ye looked at Lola in the uniform incredulously.
"Hello!" Suppressing embarrassment, Lola greeted them.
"You work...here?" In fact, Lillian didn't really hate Lola. They were classmates for six years since the middle school. She looked down upon Lola afterwards, as she considered Lola a fool.
Lillian Ye clearly knew what kinds of person Mike and Sara were earlier - a scum and a mistress, while Lola took them for treasure. She warned Lola about that. But Lola thought that Lillian fell in love with Mike and made mischief between them on purpose. I have never seen someone sillier than her - this was the only idea Lillian Ye had at that time.
Finally, Lola saw their true colors. But it was already too late.
"Yes, can I help you? Though today is my first day at work, I have good taste. How about picking some clothes for you?" Lola soon overcame embarrassment and behaved gracefully.
Lola remembered the well-intentioned warning from Lillian long time ago, which was taken as maliciousness by her.
How fool she was! The one who treated her sincerely was offended by her, while Mike and Sara were treasured. She was seized by remorse.
Lillian Ye replaced her surprise with indifference as usual, "That's OK. You know my style. I'm waiting for you."
Lola carefully recalled Lillian's dressing style - generally bright-colored, mature and fashionable.
Lillian pulled her boyfriend down into the sofa beside to wait for Lola. Looking at Lola, who was picking clothes with the help of Wendy, Lillian showed a complicated expression in her eyes.
"Miss Ye, here you come. Long time no see!" The manager just came to work. Upon seeing Lillian sitting on the sofa, she put down her bag to greet this distinguished guest.
Lillian Ye liked this brand. So she spent hundreds of thousands of yuan, or even millions of yuan, buying clothes here every year.
"Yes." Lillian Ye responded coldly while looking over the magazine of new arrivals.
The manager had gotten used to her coldness. Seeing Lola, a new employee, picking the clothes with the help of Wendy though, she frowned, "Petty, take her place and pick clothes for Miss Ye."
Petty Zhang was experienced. She clearly knew that Lillian was rich and potential. But Lola greeted Lillian before Petty Zhang saw her. After the manager gave the instruction, Petty Zhang snickered. But...
"No need. Go ahead with you work. She is OK." Lillian pointed at Lola, who was walking towards her with the clothes.
"Miss Ye, she is new here. I'm afraid that she is not qualified to serve..."
"I say no need." Lillian Ye interrupted the manager impatiently. The manager embarrassedly glanced at Lola who was holding clothes in hands, intending to check what she looked like. She was astonished then. Was that Lola? Yo, Lola was her subordinate. Hoho...
Lillian looked at the clothes picked by Lola - a red collarless chiffon top with a row of decorative buttons in the middle, a black knee-culottes and an orange silk dress with a waist belt of the same color, which was very noble.
Lillian nodded with satisfaction and went to the fitting room with the clothes.
Lola was a little perturbed, wondering whether Lillian would deliberately make difficulties for her. Lola caught sight of the woman in the uniform with the employee badge for manager.
