Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Slinging Mud

The woman who was stopped by the shop assistant didn’t expect Lin Mengyao and Bai Ru to suddenly turn back. A hint of guilt and embarrassment flashed in her eyes, but when she thought of the string of zeros on the clothing tag, her expression became much more natural.

"They were walking back and forth in front of this dress just now, and that woman even touched the dress, feeling it all over. When I went over to look at the dress, I found it was already damaged. I only hung a broken dress back in place. You should thank me for tidying up the clothes and reducing your workload, instead of letting the real culprit enjoy the show over there and wrongfully accusing me, an innocent person. Can you really live with yourself?" the woman said loudly to the shop assistant in front of her.

Lin Mengyao and Bai Ru looked at the finger pointed at them. Not knowing what happened, but hearing the woman shouting loudly attracted the attention of the few people in the store. Their expressions became unpleasant.

If it were someone with a thin skin and a soft temper, they might not withstand the gazed of those around them, endure the humiliation, and reluctantly buy the broken dress to quietly settle the matter. But today, this woman’s luck was clearly not so good, as she encountered Lin Mengyao and Bai Ru.

"Miss, you don’t seem that old, and you look quite nice. How come the moment you speak, it’s full of lies," Lin Mengyao frowned at the girl who was full of lies and said in an unfriendly tone.

"I didn’t lie! Stop slandering me here! What evidence do you have that I’m lying?" The young woman had a moment of panic but quickly stabilized her emotions, "Don’t think that just because there are more of you that you can bully me. I’ve never lied since I was a child. You two are both well-dressed; surely, there’s no need to slander me over such small money. How am I supposed to face anyone if your words get out? Are you trying to use your power to throw dirt on me and force me to admit to something I’ve never done?" the woman said defiantly with her neck strained.

Bai Ru and Lin Mengyao were both amused by the woman’s unreasonable accusations and her "I’m weak, therefore I’m right" logic.
