As sales assistants, they had encountered many types of customers in their line of work and over time, they became able to distinguish customers who were ready to spend from those who were just window shopping, and those who walked in only to use their bathrooms.
Chen Wen-Wen had obviously classified the couple in front of her to the last category of customers.
Xinxin Bridal Boutique was an upmarket bridal shop that carried wedding dresses from international brands. Even a basic wedding dress here could easily cost hundreds of thousand dollars. It was definitely not for the ordinary people.
The couple in front of her were not only dressed simply, but their clothes also looked like they were bought from the flea market and had probably cost only a couple of hundred dollars.
That man, in particular, was dressed shabbily. His clothes looked like they had been unwashed for a long time and even carried an ugly stain.
With one look, Chen Wen-Wen was filled with disgust and contempt for the couple and pointed them the way out of the boutique.
Ye Fan frowned at Chen Wen-Wen's attitude.
But they ignored Chen Wen-Wen, walked further into the boutique and started browsing through the shelves.
Chen Wen-Wen's pretty face turned red with anger, "What the heck is wrong with you guys? I already told you the directions to the public bathroom! Why are you still here?" she scolded as she rushed after them.
Instead of being angry with Chen Wen-Wen's lousy attitude, Qiu Mu-Cheng smiled politely and replied, "We are not here to borrow your bathroom. We are about to get married and so, we are here to select a wedding dress."
"All the more this place is not for you. Our wedding dresses are for sale only, they are not available for rent. If you are thinking of renting a wedding dress, there is a no-frills bridal shop towards the left. Their wedding dresses are very cheap." Chen Wen-Wen had immediately assumed they were only looking to rent a wedding dress.
It had to be the case. How could these two possibly afford to buy one? Just look at how they were dressed.
It was definitely a lot cheaper to rent a wedding dress.
"You must be mistaken. We have the intention to buy, not rent a wedding dress." Ye Fan replied.
"What? You intend to buy based on the prices listed here?" Chen Wen-Wen studied the couple in front of her before shaking her head.
"Alright, feel free to browse since your intention is to buy a dress. But you are only allowed to take a look, do not touch the dresses." Chen Wen-Wen couldn't drive them away as they already stated their intention was to buy a wedding dress.
But she still thought that they were only joking.
She did not think this couple was able to afford any of the wedding dresses here.
It wouldn't be long before they would be intimidated by the prices and backed off.
While they were talking, a car approached the shop and stopped outside the boutique.
Soon after, a young lady with thick makeup on her face and carrying a Louis Vuitton bag walked into the boutique.
The lady was stylish and gave off the air of a well-groomed, modern city lady.
A big smile appeared on Chen Wen-Wen's face when she saw this lady and quickly walked up to greet her.
"Miss Zhang, you are here! Our latest collection of wedding dresses just arrived yesterday. Let me show them to you." It was obvious that Chen Wen-Wen knew this attractive lady as she spoke to her with great fervor. Her fawning attitude was a stark contrast to how she had treated Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng.
The attractive lady nodded her head as she took off her sunglasses and followed Chen Wen-Wen around the boutique to browse the latest collection.
Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng were left unattended but they did not mind this at all. They continued browsing through the various collections in the boutique on their own.
The bridal boutique carried a wide range of wedding dresses.
Most of them were western-styled and pure white in color. There were not many traditional Chinese wedding dresses to be seen.
