However, none of them expected to bump into each other at the checkout counter after finishing their beauty treatments!
Su Tongtong could not help but complain,
“Why is my luck so bad?!”
Jiang Li raised her eyebrows.
“It’s good to get used to it.”
“Ah?”
Su Tongtong did not quite understand what Jiang Li meant, but Jiang Li had already been used to it. This was because Jiang Li realized that wherever she went, there was a high probability that she would meet the person she did not want to meet the most.
Jiang Li finally believed that the saying, ‘the road between enemies is narrow’ was the truth.
It was probably because they had a deep enmity in her previous life, and the knot in this life was too complicated and difficult to untie. Therefore, the people surrounding Jiang Li were to add to her troubles and enrich her plain life.
As long as she wanted to get over this, Jiang Li was very used to meeting some people she did not want to meet at a certain time and place.
Jiang Man had brought Meng Yun to register as a member. Other than having to stay at the counter to register as a member, people like them who were already members did not need to come to the counter to pay. The shop would deduct money from their accounts directly.
Therefore, when Jiang Man saw Jiang Li coming to the counter, she thought that Jiang Li was also here to register as a member, so she immediately put on airs again.
“The membership requirements here are very strict. Sister, you want to register as a member too?”
Jiang Li glanced at Jiang Man indifferently and did not want to talk to her. She did not care whether Jiang Man was a member or not, she just wanted to pay the bill and go back to see Fu Jiuxiao.
Seeing that Jiang Li did not respond, Jiang Man felt that she had guessed Jiang Li’s thoughts.
Meng Yun also followed suit.
“Manman said that this place needs family background and introducers for membership. You’re no longer a member of the Jiang family, so you’d better give up.”
Jiang Li was a little surprised. This beauty salon actually had class discrimination? Jiang Li did not like this very much. If that was really the case, then she would not want to come here in the future.
This kind of blatant discrimination made her very uncomfortable. It was not because of her personal reason. She just felt that this kind of place was too snobbish, even though that was not wrong. After all, it was all about profit. However, she had always lived in the countryside. She had personally experienced the setback and humiliation brought about by this kind of urban-rural discrimination and class discrimination.
“I didn’t say that I wanted to get a membership here.”
Jiang Li did not care about this at all. Su Tongtong nodded as well. Only when she came here this day did she know that this place was where those upper-class ladies and rich young ladies came, for a small-time citizen like her, a normal beauty salon was more suitable for her.
The service here was good, but Su Tongtong was not used to the environment and the look in the attendant’s eyes.
“I just think you can’t get it, so why are you so stubborn?”
Meng Yun looked at Jiang Li with disdain.
The attendant at the counter had just come back from helping Meng Yun with her membership.
Jiang Li directly handed the black gold card given by Fu Jiuxiao to the attendant. Her actions were natural, and even her expression did not change. Her mood did not fluctuate at all, as if what she handed to the attendant was an ordinary bank card.
“Bill please.”
However, the moment the black gold card was shown, the attendant was shocked.
“Yes, yes, Miss!”
The attendants here had received professional training. Before they started their work, they were trained in a series of knowledge and precautions.
One of them was to know about the black gold card. These people were VVIPs here. They did not even need to pay to enjoy all the services here.
This was because compared to the money they spent here, the connections and resources they brought to the shop were more important!
