Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Credit Card_1
"That’s right. Some people clearly have no money, yet they pretend to be rich."
"Two nutcases. Please exit and turn right; the mental hospital is over there."
"What did you say? You dare to insult us?" Feng Shaomei’s face flushed red, then went white. She was about to charge forward when Feng Shao’an grabbed her hand. Lan Xuan and Han Yachu were both present at this moment.
"Idiots," Shangguan You cursed coldly, no longer paying them any mind.
"Miss, the total is 288,000 yuan. Will you be paying by card or cash?" the cashier asked in a sweet voice. A triumphant look appeared on the faces of the Feng siblings; they couldn’t believe this poor girl could afford it.
Lan Xuan and Han Yachu also raised their eyebrows slightly.
"Card." A purple card was taken from her bag. As soon as the cashier saw the purple card, her expression changed noticeably.
"HAHA, that’s hilarious! Using such a lousy card!" Feng Shaomei was the first to burst into laughter.
"What, it can’t be used? Then how about this one?" Shangguan You, seeing the cashier’s change in expression, took out a gold card. Cards were what she had the most of. If this one didn’t work, she’d switch. There was bound to be one that worked.
"It’s not that, esteemed customer. Please wait a moment."
"Xiao An, what’s wrong? Why are you being so impolite?" Xu Nuo couldn’t help but ask, noticing the cashier’s face had turned pale.
"Miss Xu, one is a gold card, and the other is a purple card. The minimum limit on these cards is one million," Xiao An explained, her voice trembling. These are cards for the truly wealthy! I can’t believe I’m seeing the legendary gold and purple cards in this small mall.
"What? Miss Youyou, do you have any other cards? The purchase amount doesn’t meet the minimum threshold for these cards." Xu Nuo held the two cards, her own expression shifting several times. These cards weren’t something one could obtain merely with money, and to think a child had casually produced two of them!
Shangguan You silently cursed a few times. Damn it, why does buying a few clothes have to be this troublesome? She retrieved the two cards and then pulled out a blue card, a green card, and a credit card.
"They can’t be fake, can they?" Feng Shaomei laughed with undisguised triumph.
"Impossible. These cards are limited edition globally; only a few exist. Plus, they have names and identity verification on them. They can’t be fake."
Shangguan You’s expression darkened. What are all these other cards good for then? She pulled out a credit card. "Use the credit card."
Xu Nuo shook her head again. The expression on her face grew increasingly strange, and her hands began to tremble slightly.
"Wait, I’ll get my uncle to transfer the money to you," Shangguan You said, then took out the latest model iPhone and dialed a familiar number.
"Hello, Youyou, what’s up?" A man’s deep and pleasant voice came through the phone; he sounded like he was in a very good mood.
"Uncle, I’ve bought some clothes in Mingzhu City, but none of those cards work. They don’t want these cards; they want one that can be used for smaller amounts," Shangguan You said, her tone somewhat coquettish. Damn it, did they give me all their high-limit cards?
"Those are supplementary cards from your uncle and your mom. Feel free to use them. Buy whatever you like, no matter the cost. If it’s not enough, your uncle will give you more."
"Uncle, I need a card for smaller amounts. I’ve tried several cards here, and none of them work."
"Alright, alright, your uncle will have someone handle it immediately. They’ll bring you the money in five minutes, okay? How much do you need?"
"Three hundred thousand."
"That little? Don’t try to save money for your uncle. Spend more."
Shangguan You’s mouth twitched fiercely. Three hundred thousand, and he calls that little? What kind of person is this?
"HAHAHA, serves you right for posturing around here! Now you’ve made a complete fool of yourself. Tomorrow, I’m going to broadcast this all over school. Let’s see if you still dare to act so pretentious!"
"I never thought you could even come up with such a ridiculous excuse. I’m truly impressed," Feng Shao’an added.
The two siblings attacked again with their words, while Xu Nuo, Lan Xuan, and Han Yachu focused their gazes on Shangguan You, as if trying to see right through her.
Just what is her identity? Even Lan Xuan couldn’t easily get his hands on these kinds of cards, yet she pulled out five or six of them in one go.
DING DONG. A bell chimed, and a middle-aged man ran in, sweating and panting heavily.
"Mr. Li, what brings you here?" Xu Nuo looked at the profusely sweating man with surprise and approached him. This was a prominent figure in B City, and Mingzhu City was one of his properties. She hadn’t expected him to show up in a small shop like this.
"Who is Miss Shangguan?" Mr. Li ignored Xu Nuo and looked directly at the girls inside. When his gaze fell upon Shangguan You, it skipped right past her; the young miss he envisioned was certainly not someone who looked as plain as dirt. He went straight to greet Feng Shaomei.
Shangguan You crossed her arms. Another one judging by appearances.
"I apologize for my tardiness. All of your expenses here today are on me. This is a Mingzhu City membership card; from now on, all your spending here will be on my account. Please, Miss, put in a few good words for me with the President," Mr. Li said, respectfully handing a red card to Feng Shaomei.
Feng Shaomei stared at Mr. Li in shock. Her hand hesitated to take the card, her eyes darting constantly to Shangguan You’s indifferent face. The atmosphere suddenly grew cold, and everyone’s eyes shifted restlessly between Shangguan You and Mr. Li.
"Mr. Li, you’ve mistaken the person. *That* is Miss Shangguan," Xu Nuo interjected at the opportune moment.
"Ah, my apologies, Miss Shangguan! It is Mingzhu City’s utmost honor to have you grace us with your presence. Please, accept this card." Mr. Li’s face stiffened for a moment, then he managed a smile, speaking respectfully to Shangguan You.
"No need. I’m not short of money," Shangguan You stated coldly. Her glasses obscured her features, but her frigid words caused more sweat to bead on Mr. Li’s forehead.
"Sister Xu, please just swipe this card. As for the money left over, I’ll come by each month to pick out a few outfits," Shangguan You said, handing over the purple card and signaling for it to be swiped directly. She wasn’t in the habit of accepting freebies.
"Miss Shangguan..." Mr. Li stood awkwardly, holding out the membership card, which she hadn’t even glanced at.
"Go ahead and swipe it," Xu Nuo gestured to Xiao An to do as Shangguan You instructed.
