Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Upon hearing Xia Wans arrangements, Yan Han felt a profound sense of fulfillment. His once-empty heart now had a place to call home.

Seeing the relief on his parents faces, Xia Chen also breathed a sigh of relief.

Over the next few days, Xia Ru wore an air of pride.

Their clothing store saw a steady stream of customers, and the sales of their clothes were exceptionally strong.

Xia Wans shop was eventually forced to lower its prices to compete.

It was a typical Friday when Xia Wan decided to help out at the shop after her cla.s.ses.

Xia Ru had been eager to tease Xia Wan, so when she spotted her cousins figure, she strutted into Xia Wans shop, high heels clicking on the floor. First, Xia Ru a.s.sessed the stores decor and clothing selection.

After glancing at the price tags, Xia Rus smile broadened.

With a sly grin, she remarked to Xia Wan, Ive heard that youve dropped your prices several times this week. Take this T-s.h.i.+rt, for instance. It used to be priced at 28 yuan, but now its only 20 yuan.

Youve slashed the cost by 8 yuan on each item. Your purchase price must be around this mark, right?

Ive also heard that you used to give customers various gifts like gloves, umbrellas, and sun-proof clothing.

But it appears that the giveaways have dwindled in recent days. Is it because youre starting to run into financial trouble?

Hasnt your boss given you an earful for not managing the business well?

Could you please share your bosss contact number with me? Id really like to give your boss an update on the shops current state.

Xia Ru genuinely wanted to reach out to Xia Wans boss.

She hoped to fan the flames in front of the boss, making it seem like Xia Wans family was running the shop poorly, resulting in its current financial difficulties. This would hopefully lead to Xia Wan and her family getting fired.

If she succeeded, her goal would be achieved. Their shop wouldnt have to sell clothes at such rock-bottom prices.

Selling at a discount for a short period was meant to cripple Xia Wans clothing store. Selling at such low prices for an extended period would lead to significant losses.

Rent, utility bills, and employee salaries were all substantial expenses.

Xia Wan looked at her coldly. You neednt concern yourself with our shop. Its impossible for you to reach our boss.

Truth be told, our boss is currently overseas, managing a mult.i.tude of businesses. This shop is just one of her many ventures. Even if it incurs losses or closes down, our boss wouldnt be bothered in the slightest.

Our boss entrusted us with this shop because she knows we wont manipulate the accounts or deceive her. Even if the shop closes, shell continue to employ us.

But you, on the other hand, are different. Youre merely the secretarys girlfriend. By trying to harm our family, youve forced the secretarys shop to sell clothes at a price far below market value. If the secretary grows weary of you or feels youve caused significant financial losses, do you think hell seek compensation for this period of losses?

Xia Ru had intended to provoke Xia Wan but found herself concerned instead.

Her ability to use the doc.u.ments to secure low prices was contingent on the secretarys favor.

If the secretary truly grew tired of her, or if he believed she had incurred substantial losses by opposing Xia Wan, he might gradually distance himself from her.

However, the price war had been ongoing for a week already, and Xia Ru believed that Xia Wan and the others couldnt hold out much longer. She couldnt afford to give up at this crucial juncture.

Though she harbored these thoughts internally, Xia Ru refused to concede on the surface.

She took a seat at the counter and said bluntly, You dont need to argue about the secretarys affection for me. We genuinely love each other. Furthermore, the money in question is mere pocket change for the secretary.

But I hate seeing you all continue to endure these losses.. How about this? Xia Wan, why dont you take the initiative to withdraw, allowing the boss behind you to find someone else to take over the shop?
