Chapter 741

Bet and Car Purchase - 5

"Madam, I misspoke just now, and I apologize again."

Seeing that the situation was escalating and attracting a growing crowd, Sister Li quickly changed her strategy, adopting a more aggrieved tone:

"But you've misunderstood what happened between Xia and this gentleman. I didn't mean anything by it; I was just trying to be helpful."

She paused, raised her voice slightly, and tried to draw everyone's attention away from herself:

"If you have any complaints about me, you can file a complaint with the store, which I fully accept. But if you insist on continuing like this... remaining so emotionally agitated, disrupting the store's normal operations, and affecting the car buying experience of so many customers..."

At this point, she turned her gaze to Xia An, who had remained silent beside her, and her tone became earnest and persuasive:

"Xia, I don't know if I accidentally offended you or if you have some complaints about the store, but in any case, as a sales consultant, please calm your customers down first. Otherwise, we'll have to follow store rules and ask these two to leave and calm down."

As a seasoned veteran in the sales industry, she knew all too well how to handle these kinds of messy situations.

When you haven't been caught red-handed, apologize when you should apologize, and suffer in silence when you should suffer in silence.

Since the other party can't do anything about you, whatever you do will make you seem like you're considering the bigger picture, and you might even get a "complaint award" from the store later.

But once they get caught...

Shifting blame is absolutely unacceptable.

The correct approach would be to quickly bring everyone around you into your camp, shift the focus from "your conflict with the couple" to "Xia An's conflict with the shop," downplay the impact of the slip of the tongue, and bring the focus back to the core of the conflict—Xia An's "moral issues."

In this way, Xia An was the one who started the trouble, while Xia An himself was the one who bravely stood up to maintain order in the store.

As for that slip of the tongue that we usually don't care about... who would really care?

This is called using power to intimidate others.

Even if these two idiots from who-knows-where continue to harass her, she can firmly stand on the moral high ground and return all their attacks to Xia An untouched.

After all, disrupting the business and affecting the store's profits is the original sin.

It can be said that Sister Li's approach is a common tactic used by top-tier "green tea" women in the workplace.

Anyone with concerns or a sense of pride would have to suffer in silence, especially a newcomer like Xia An who already had a "dark history" and had just arrived at the store; it was practically a death sentence for her.

Unfortunately...

Today she met the founding father of the green tea world, Comrade Su Ning.

"What are you babbling about?"

Having accumulated rich experience of being "suppressed" in the long-term struggle with Ye Cheng, Su Ning has now fully achieved a comprehensive understanding of both herself and her opponent, and has completely completed the business loop in the art of green tea.

No sooner had Sister Li finished speaking than she instantly understood the other person's intention. With a wave of her hand, she continued to press on with the main storyline of "cheating":

"Jiang Ye! Did you see that?! She's trying to kick me out! She's clearly guilty and afraid I'll keep asking and expose your dirty secrets! If you and this Xia guy are truly innocent, fine, we'll go to court right now and sue this fat pig for defamation! Make her pay up! Do you dare?!"

"Madam, if you wish to file a complaint against me, you are welcome to, but please do not interfere..."

Sister Li frowned slightly, and was about to continue emphasizing order when she was interrupted again.

"Why would I complain about you?! If you hadn't kindly hinted at it, I wouldn't even know I was being cheated on!"

Su Ning's face was full of anger. She turned to Jiang Ye with a cold snort, her voice suddenly rising:

"Jiang Ye! I'll just ask you one question! Are you two having an affair?!"

"I'm truly impressed!"

Jiang Ye sighed deeply, spreading his hands with a helpless expression:

"Wife, why would you rather believe rumors spread by outsiders than believe me? My heart for you is as clear as the sun and moon!"

"..."

Listening to the two of them talking back and forth, every word sticking to her like glue, Sister Li cursed inwardly, "What bad luck!" But she had no choice but to speak again, stubbornly trying to steer the conflict toward Xia An:

"Gentlemen, if you insist on arguing, could Xia take you to the lounge to talk this out first, so as not to cause any disturbance..."

"Do I trust you?"

She had barely started speaking when Su Ning interrupted her again, her voice filled with the heartbreak of being betrayed:

"You can't even answer the questions I ask you, how can I trust you?! Huh?!"

"Why didn't I answer? I already said it was all nonsense from that fat woman surnamed Li! If I really had something going on with Xia, would I have brought you here to buy a car from her?"

Jiang Ye looked completely justified, his voice rising rather than falling:

"Su Ning! Can you please stop being so aggressive and nagging?"

"Well......"

A cleaning lady carrying a basin of water passed by and, upon hearing the phrase, couldn't help but click her tongue, sighing inwardly that today's young people are truly getting worse with each generation, even mispronouncing idioms.

"Young man, you're being aggressive."

"Oh, thank you, Auntie!"

Jiang Ye nodded repeatedly, then turned to Su Ning and snorted coldly:

"Look! Even this righteous auntie knows that the woman surnamed Li is a scoundrel, and you still believe her nonsense?!"

Cleaning lady: "..."

"Alright! Jiang Ye! Now I'll ask you a question, and you'd better answer me honestly!"

"Wife, you know me, I..."

"If you were to share a room with this guy surnamed Xia..."

Su Ning stood with her hands on her hips and her eyes wide, as if she had made up her mind to judge her husband in front of everyone:

"She suddenly strips naked and pounces on you on the bed, what would you do?"

The entire room fell silent instantly.

"Wife, you know me..."

Jiang Ye sighed deeply, his tone filled with the helplessness of a gentleman, seemingly feeling a deep regret for his traditional character:

"Ahem... I'm a traditional man, I only know a few positions, nothing new."

The entire audience: "???"

The air froze for a full three seconds.

"Aaaaah! I knew it! Sister Li was right! What a scumbag! You, you, you!"

Su Ning was instantly enraged, as if this shameless answer had completely ignited her fury. She jumped up and pounced on him, her small fists flailing wildly.

"I'll beat you to death, you big scumbag! I'll beat you to death, you biased bastard! I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death!"

"Damn it! You're the one who insisted on asking. Would a gentleman like me lie?"

Jiang Ye was beaten so badly that he ran away with his head in his hands, dodging around a prototype vehicle while continuing to argue his case:

"Or you could ask these guys over there what they would do in this situation? Could they resist thinking about what positions to use?!"

"???"

The men watching suddenly felt an invisible pressure coming from them. Looking at the sharp, scrutinizing gaze of their female companions, they almost couldn't help but rush up and punch the bastard a couple of times.

Does anyone in the family understand this?

Did watching a show turn into a life-threatening question?

Isn't this putting all the men in the world on the hot seat?!

The crowd instantly united in their indignation. After quietly comforting their female companions, they all began cheering for Su Ning.

"Yeah, girl! Let's beat that bastard to death!"

"Exactly! You're so beautiful, and this bastard doesn't even appreciate it. Kill him! Kill him, and I'll introduce you to someone else!"

"Damn it, what a disgrace to us men! The correct response should have been a firm refusal, a complete shove! Shameless!"

Although the crowd was indignant and verbally condemning Jiang Ye, after this commotion, everyone realized that the man on the field probably really had nothing to do with the salesperson.

After all, as people say, if there really was a relationship, how could he bring his wife to find his "mistress" to buy a car?

Not to mention they dared to confront each other in public; if there were any real issues, they would have already taken the person back and explained things to them.

Um......

So it seems that this fat guy surnamed Li really is spreading rumors?

So what exactly did this guy surnamed Li say just now?

Are you brain-dead? How dare you bully customers?
