"What is your problem? Why are you not calling the manager? " Yu Rushi asked.
The lady at the counter sighed, "Ma'am even is you call our manager, you still won't be able to buy that dress. I think you should just leave our store. You are creating chaos here and we have other customers that we need to look after too."
"YOU!!! HOW DARE YOU TALK TO ME LIKE THAT? DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?" Yu Rushi yelled on top of her voice. She was never disrespected like this. She lost her mind when the counter lady had told her to leave.
By this time all the people inside the store were looking at the counter. Most of them recognized Li Roulan and her mother, so with great interest, they looked at the drama that was going on. On the other hand, the saleswoman was a little scared. They were her first customers and she was afraid that she will be fired because of all this commotion.
Even though Li Roulan knew that people were looking at her, she didn't care. She was right and she knew that people would support her. She wanted to wear that dress and when they denied her, she was mad. She only knew one thing that she needs to have that dress.
Among all of the commotion, the manager of the shop came running out of his cabin. He rushed towards the counter and asked with a frown, "What is going on here?"
"Are you the manager of the shop?" Li Roulan asked when she saw the workers greeting the man politely.
"Yes." The manager nodded.
Once he saw Li Roulan and Yu Rushi, his expressions changed immediate and he understood the whole situation without anybody's explanation. Still, he looked towards the counter lady and waited for an explanation. The lady smiled as she narrated everything.

The manager looked at the new saleswoman who was shivering in fear. "You have done your part, you can leave. Go and look after other customers, " he said. The saleswomen nodded in relief and she immediately left the place in a hurry.
While standing in a corner, the saleswomen took a breath in relief. She almost thought that she was going to lose her job. Another worker came near her and asked, "Are you alright? Thank God that the manager didn't fire you for disobeying the rule."
"Which rule?" the saleswoman looked confused.
"Huh? You don't know. Did nobody tell you?"
The saleswomen shook her head with a frown.
"There a rule that we all have to strictly follow. We cannot sell anything to anybody related to the Li family. We can let them in our store, show them dresses but we cannot let them buy that."
The saleswoman: "..." What kind of weird rule is that? We can show them the dresses but not let them buy. Isn't it like putting candy in front of a kid but not letting him eat it?
"Why?" she asked curiously.
"Really?"
"Yeah, there is something weird going on with that Li family. It's like actress Li Xiaolu is not a part of their family," she said.
"What are you saying? How can that be? Where did you hear all of this?" the saleswomen said in confusion?
"You don't know anything. I am Miss Li Xiaolu's biggest fan and my friend is a reporter. She tells me about all of the news about her. She has done a lot of research on this and from that, I know everything."
"Oh!!"
"No matter how many times Miss Li Roulan tries but she will the first and the last person to leave this shop empty-handed." The worker commented, "I wonder if she would be thrown out of the shop?"

"Wouldn't that be bad for her reputation?"
The worker shrugged, "It will be. Anyways, let's not put our nose into all of this and get back to our work."
Meanwhile, Yu Rushi was arguing with the manager for that dress. The manager was politely trying to tell them that they won't be able them that dress but Yu Rushi was adamant to get that dress for her daughter.
"What is the problem? Why are you not ready to sell us that dress? Nobody has purchased it and we are ready to buy that dress at any price you say." Li Roulan frowned.
"Miss Li Roulan we have been given orders that we cannot sell any dresses from our shop to anybody that belongs to the Li family." The manager said frankly.
Li Roulan: "..."
Yu Rushi: "..."
Hearing that something finally snapped inside Li Roulan's brains. They were clearly insulting her. What does this mean by not selling her that dress? First, she was not invited to the fashion show and now she couldn't but the dress that she wanted.
Why were they doing this to her? Does that designer hate her so much? Why? Is it because of that orphan? Li Roulan's eyes narrowed at that thought and she was furious.
"What do you mean by that?" Li Roulan roared angrily. She didn't care if the people were whispering or talking about her. She was going to buy that dress anyhow.
