The female sales assistant was quite tactful when she noticed that Chen Qimeng wasn’t alone.
She lingered by Lin Yu’s side and curiously asked in a whisper:
“Handsome, any progress since last time...?”
Her words made Lin Yu secretly pleased in his heart.
Progress? More than just progress—they’d already taken the next step!
Come to think of it,
he really had to thank this top-notch saleswoman right in front of him. Thanks to her professional finesse, she’d helped break through the emotional barrier first.
If it were just Lin Yu and Aunt Qimeng alone,
he’d definitely boast a little in front of the sales assistant about how he’d won over such a beauty.
But now,
Lin Yu could only speak in a low voice:
“There’s been a lot of progress. You really deserve my thanks!”
“Only, right now, the lady next to my girlfriend is her best friend, and she still…”
Before he could finish,
Du Ruxue had already pulled Chen Qimeng over.
“Why are you two whispering away, Xiao Yu?”
“Aren’t you going to introduce me?”
“Is this lady a friend of yours two?”
Her voice was loud enough to completely drown out Lin Yu’s words,
causing him to lose the perfect chance to explain.
He had wanted to say:
“She’s my girlfriend’s best friend and doesn’t know about us yet!”
Just a simple hint, and with the sales assistant’s quick wit,
she would know what to say and what not to say.
Lin Yu actually wanted to say nothing and just turn and leave.
But with the ever-watchful Aunt Ruxue around,
that was way too risky!
If she couldn’t help but let her imagination run wild and started snooping through the sales assistant’s things,
she might very well follow the trail and discover the couple photos of Lin Yu and Chen Qimeng!
Lin Yu definitely didn’t want to do anything foolish that would harm Aunt Qimeng’s image in front of her rare close friend.
The sales assistant smiled brightly upon seeing Du Ruxue and Chen Qimeng.
Inside, she secretly gave Lin Yu a thumbs-up!
Where on earth did this young guy find such an outstanding big sister?
This lady’s aura was even more noble!
Oh right,
what was the handsome guy just saying?
His girlfriend’s best friend...
If she’s the best friend, then that’s a bit insensitive, isn’t it?
Here they are, a young couple out shopping, and you can’t even give them a little private space?
“Hello to the two lovely ladies! I’m honored to be considered a friend,” she said with a chuckle.
“I work as a sales assistant in the store and have met your two friends briefly before.”
“You both left a strong impression on me, so I didn’t expect to run into you again.”
“That’s why I couldn’t help but come over and say hi.”
Although the sales assistant didn’t reveal any crucial information,
the hints she dropped felt like colorful bubbles ready to burst at any moment!
If Du Ruxue asked just a couple more questions, it would all come crashing down.
No need to ask anything else!
Just one question: “Which store do you work at?”
In Du Ruxue’s eyes, Lin Yu and Aunt Qimeng’s relationship would be forever stained, beyond redemption.
After all, she ran a wedding photography studio!
How could she explain it?
An aunt and her nephew...
What business would they have at a wedding photography studio?
If they said they were there for ID photos, would anyone really believe that?
At this critical moment,
Chen Qimeng was utterly at a loss for words.
She was completely flustered, standing there dumbfounded, her face almost turning pale.
At that moment, she was truly terrified.
It’s over!
Everything is ruined!
Just last night, Xiao Xue had specifically asked her a question in bed.
“Raising a nearly grown boy, aren’t you worried that Lin Yu might become emotionally attached to you?”
At the time, Chen Qimeng had lied.
She said she knew Lin Yu had a girlfriend at school, but didn’t know who she was.
She also said that Lin Yu only felt gratitude toward her.
Now, if Xiao Xue found out that the two of them had been to the “wedding photography studio” together,
how would she face Xiao Xue?
Chen Qimeng couldn’t even come up with a half-hearted excuse to brush it off.
The female sales clerk glanced at Chen Qimeng, smiled, and nodded in greeting.
She even took the initiative to shake hands with both Du Ruxue and Chen Qimeng.
Du Ruxue could sense some stiffness from the people around her.
Lin Yu said, “Miss, we still need to…”
Hearing Lin Yu’s urgency to wrap up the conversation, Du Ruxue interrupted once again:
“What a coincidence! We’re just about to go shopping. Miss, which store do you work for?”
“Are there any promotions going on at the mall recently?”
Lin Yu: “!!!”
Chen Qimeng: “!!!”
What was bound to happen, happened.
Du Ruxue perfectly seized the opportunity and threw out a fatal question.
The unsuspecting sales clerk smiled brightly and pointed toward the first floor, saying,
“Our store is right over there, miss. You can see it directly.”
The three of them followed the sales clerk’s gesture and looked in that direction.
Lin Yu’s pupils constricted sharply: “!!!”
Chen Qimeng’s eyes widened: “???”
The store the sales clerk was pointing to…
was a shoe store!
Not their wedding photography booth at all.
Could she have pointed in the wrong direction?
Or was it just a visual illusion, making it look like she was pointing at the shoe store?
For a moment, Lin Yu didn’t quite grasp what was going on.
Chen Qimeng was even more dazed, unsure where things had gone wrong.
Until the sales clerk spoke again:
“The last time I ran into these two, it was this lovely lady here who was helping the handsome guy pick out shoes.”
“My sales had been terrible, and that day was actually the first deal I closed this month.”
“Come to think of it, I should be the one thanking you both!”
Lin Yu took a deep breath, his eyes sparkling: “!!!”
Chen Qimeng hadn’t quite caught on to what had happened.
Her pale face quickly regained color.
She looked like someone who had just escaped a disaster, finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
The quietly proud sales clerk subtly scanned Lin Yu and Chen Qimeng.
Feeling quite pleased with herself!
Just as she had guessed!
The “close friend” next to the beauty didn’t know that the two of them had already confirmed their relationship.
The sales clerk almost missed it and almost ruined her own matchmaking efforts by personally bringing these two together!
Du Ruxue’s friendly demeanor and smile were completely flawless.
At first, the sales clerk hadn’t realized there could be any awkwardness in the conversation between them.
Until Du Ruxue interrupted Lin Yu a second time, not letting her speak.
The female salesperson quickly pieced together the unknown information in her mind…
What exactly was the handsome guy going to say at the start?
Why did he emphasize that his girlfriend’s best friend was there?
When she just shook hands with the handsome guy’s girlfriend, she felt a cool, trembling sensation, like nervousness.
Nervous about what?
The only difference between today’s scene and last time was…
There was an extra best friend standing by!
For a top-notch salesperson with exceptional emotional intelligence, the unfolding situation was nothing to worry about.
She effortlessly sorted out the cause and effect.
She understood everything more clearly.
At this moment, she knew exactly what the best response should be.
That’s how the scene just now came about!
