Chapter 782 Give you justice
A young female worker from Blush Tree walks into the room. She had been organizing so racks and heard a commotion. At first, she thought it was her imagination but decided to check since she had to clean the fitting room.
"Oh, my goodness."
She had only entered the room when she gasps at the sight of a disheveled woman sitting on the floor. She quickly rushed over to help.
"Miss, are you alright? Why are you sitting on the floor?"
She bent down and reached her hands out, but getting a better look at the woman's face, her eyes widen in horror and shock.
"M-Miss Ji…"
Ji Chu Hua was still in a daze from her shock and had not recovered. It wasn't until she heard the worker that she return to her own world.
She looks up at the young woman. Seeing a sympathetic look on the girl's face, she felt all the blood inside her return to its place.
Her fingers curl into a tight fist, and she shoves the girl away.
"Get away from me. I don't need your help."
Not wanting any sympathy from the worker, she helps herself up from the floor. Without saying another word, she strides back into the fitting room to chance.
It didn't take long for her to do this, and she came back out wearing a white coat with a purple wrapped dress.
Seeing that the worker had not left and was waiting for her, she inhales a deep breath. She pushes aside her anger and puts on a sweet smile.
"I'm sorry for pushing you just now. I seemed to have caught a cod and did not want you to catch it."
A soft chuckle escapes her smile, and she walks closer to the worker.
"As for the dresses that I tried, please have them deliver to my house under the usual card."
The worker looks at Ji Chu Hua in puzzlement. Unlike the woman who resembled a wicked witch, she (Ji Chu Hua) looked like a refined and graceful woman.
It was like the scene she (worker) saw not too long ago was all in her head.
However, remembering where she is and her job, she nods her head with a polite bow.
"Yes, Miss Ji. I will have the dresses delivered before evening."
Ji Chu Hua stares at the top of the girl's head. Her sweet smile slowly turns into a sneer, and she walks out of this fitting room. This is how others should react upon seeing her.
"Ah, I almost forgot."
The sound of her click-clacking heels stop, and she spoke in a singsong voice. Her head slightly turns to the side to look at the young woman still with her head down.
"Forgot what you saw. If I head anything close to it in the media, you will be jobless."
She looks away with a 'hmmf' and continues to leave the fitting room. She has never threatened a worker before, but she needs to keep her image of the perfect woman. If words got out about this, everyone would treat her differently.
Stepping onto the sales floor, she stops in her tracks to take another deep breath.
She thought back to the two slap she received from Yue Ling and raised her hands to touch her cheeks. Her eyes turned bloodshot, and she presses her fingers against her skin.
"Han Yue Ling… I swear, so long as I am still alive, you won't live a happy life."
Her body trembles in anger, and she dug her nails into her skin as if to make her cheeks redder.
"Hua, are you done trying on the dresses? Why didn't you show me?"
From her side came a man's voice, and Ji Chu Hua turns her head to look at the person.
A decent looking man in his thirties can be seen in a short distance. He wore a white polo shirt with black slacks. Due to the warm temperature inside Blush Tree, he had taken off his brown coat and placed it over his forearm.
All the anger built up inside Ji Chu Hua vanishes, and she changes her appearance the same way she did in front of the worker.
"I just finished."
She smiles a smile that could melt the hearts of anyone who laid eyes on her. She lowers both her hands and walks over to the man with her hips swaying side to side.
"I hope you don't mind, but I had the worker put the dresses on your card."
Her words fell in a coquettish tone as she stops at his side. She locks her arm around his and presses her chest against his toned arm as if trying to arouse him.
"When we get back to my place, I'll try on the dresses for you to see."
The man chuckles at how open she was when it comes to flirting. He moves his hand that was captured by her and wrapped it around her waist.
"I brought you here, so everything you want is on me."
He leans down to kiss her cheek but stops when he notices something. He turns his body to face her and touch her cheek.
"I only left to answer a phone call. How did your cheek get so red? Did something happen when I was gone?"
He asks with a frown, but upon closer inspection, he could make out a handprint. His frown deepens, and his blood stirs in rage.
"Who was it? Who dare to slap you?"
"I… It's nothing serious…"
A glistening light flashes inside Ji Chu Hua's eyes before turning moist. She chokes a sob and turns her head to the side in an attempt to hide her swollen cheek.
"Please take me home. I don't want to be here anymore."
Another sob sounds from her, and tears slid down her cheeks. She looked even more pitiful than when the worker found her in the fitting room.
The man's heart tightened when he saw that both her cheeks were slapped red. He pulls her into an embrace and stroke her back to soothe her.
"Don't cry. I'm here now. Tell me who hurt you. I will cripple their hands so they can never hurt you again."
Ji Chu Hua lets the man hug her tightly and continues to sob like she was suffering from intense pain. However, if one were to look closely, one could see that she was no longer shedding tears.
When she heard his encouraging words and the way he was caring for her, she grew satisfied. Just a few tears from her was all she needed to have this any man wrapped around her fingers.
However, she quickly brushes this side of her away and wraps her arms around his waist. She sobs into his chest and forces out some tears to stain his white polo shirt.
"It… It was Han Yue Ling and Zhao Ya'Er…"
Her sobs turned into a heart-rendering cry like her world had crumbled into millions of pieces.
"Wuu… I didn't do anything to them… I only wanted to greet them, but they bullied me when no one was around… wuu…"
The man listened, and his body trembled with eyes full of wrath. He hugs Ji Chu Hua tighter as if wanting to knead her into one with his body.
"Shh… It's alright now. Everything will be okay."
He continues to stroke her back like a child and coaxes her with sweet promises.
"I'm here now. I'll definitely make Han Yue Ling and Zhao Ya'Er kneel in front of you and give you justice."
