Chapter 532 - 413: Flaunting Fake Designer Brands

When Ning Youguang returned from a bike ride, she met a middle-aged woman adorned in designer brands, with heavily made-up face, holding a dog, chatting with a slim, attractive young girl in a tracksuit at the residential complex downstairs.

It was unclear what they were discussing, but judging by the atmosphere between them, it was nothing pleasant.

"Teacher Ning, back already?" The middle-aged woman, who was walking her dog, greeted her from afar as soon as she saw her.

"Mrs. Liu is out walking the dog." Ning Youguang replied with a smile.

She wore casual clothes and strolled leisurely around the complex, her steps graceful, her voice calm and unhurried, like a gentle breeze that reached the ears of the young girl, who was a bit agitated in conversation with the middle-aged woman, sparking her curiosity to look over.

This glance led her to steal a few more looks.

The middle-aged woman noticed the young girl’s gaze on Ning Youguang, and eyed her with a hint of disdain.

Then, with veiled sarcasm towards Ning Youguang, she said with a smile, "Yes, Dada couldn’t stay at home, so I brought it out for a walk. Never thought it would attract such unfriendliness."

"Dada" was the name of the dog the middle-aged woman was holding, her beloved pet.

It was a well-cared-for, beautiful white Pomeranian.

The middle-aged woman lived right below Shi Wangyue’s apartment.

Ning Youguang had only moved in a few days ago and had already run into her several times in the elevator.

On their second encounter in the elevator, the middle-aged woman initiated the conversation, and through such exchanges, they came to know each other.

The middle-aged woman’s words carried a strong sense of hostility.

The young girl quickly withdrew her gaze from Ning Youguang and turned to the middle-aged woman with a cold look, saying, "Sister, if you watched your dog and didn’t let it run into me, maybe it wouldn’t attract unfriendliness."

"They really are quarreling."

Ning Youguang quickly averted her gaze from the two.

She intended to hurry home and not engage much with Mrs. Liu.

"How could our little Dada, a tiny dog, know what it’s bumping into, whether it’s something fragrant or something foul? Someone must have nothing better to do to argue with a dog."

Contrary to her usual amicable appearance, the middle-aged woman was relentless with her words this time.

"Ah, forget it, forget it." She tugged at the dog’s leash, turned her head and began to leave, "It’s pointless, Dada, let’s go home."

"Sister, who are you calling a thing?" The young girl watched the middle-aged woman’s retreating back, her eyes burning with anger.

Her voice sharpened with rage, "Can’t you speak properly? At your age!"

Their argument happened to take place just outside the main gate of the residential complex.

Ning Youguang tried to avoid it but couldn’t.

As she passed by the girl, she pretended to look down at the road.

Disliking arguments and the discomfort of watching them, Teacher Ning decided to quickly leave the troublesome scene.

Unexpectedly, rather than engage with the young girl, the middle-aged woman caught up with her.

"Teacher Ning, the flowers in your hand are beautiful, where did you get them?" She stopped her pace, seemingly intending to wait for Ning Youguang.

"Thank you." Ning Youguang had to shift her gaze from the ground to the yellow and pink tulips in her arms, "From the flower shop just outside the complex."

"Hey, clarify what you mean!" The young girl fumed, jumping in place.

But the middle-aged woman didn’t spare her another glance.

When Ning Youguang reached her, the middle-aged woman again went inside the building with her.

"Oh, was it from ’Flower Field House’?"

"Yes..."

"Hey!"

As Ning Youguang felt increasingly uncomfortable, the elevator arrived quickly.

She immediately pressed the button and got in.

The middle-aged woman followed, leading her dog into the elevator behind her.

Once inside the elevator.

The middle-aged woman, with a face full of disdain, said to Ning Youguang, "Tomorrow I’ll ask the property management if our complex is still a high-end one. How can all sorts of unsavory people live here, flaunting fake designer brands, don’t even know which boss’s kept someone doesn’t know shame."

It was too awkward. From the moment she entered the elevator, Ning Youguang couldn’t bring herself to lift her eyes off the floor number displayed, wishing she could immediately vanish and reach home.

Unable to avoid it, she had to continue listening to Mrs. Liu’s complaints.

She had also noticed.

The girl wore a pair of athleisure brand track pants, with the brand’s logo on one side.

First, the color of her pants was off.

Secondly, the style was actually for men.

Mixing men’s design with a women’s color scheme, these pants really stood out falsely.

However, Mrs. Liu’s way of bringing it up directly was...

She wondered why she even noticed the girl’s pants.

Mainly because those pants had become so popular recently that her mom and Aunt Ming each had several pairs.

Her mom had even sent her a bundle, saying they were for wearing to the gym, as they looked nice.

As for that girl...

She once saw her at night from a distance, walking in the complex holding the arm of a burly middle-aged man in designer clothes, which indeed led to unfavorable speculation from others.

But for Mrs. Liu to so casually speak ill of people with an extremely arrogant attitude...

Ning Youguang thought it best to keep her distance from such a neighbor.

Besides, she was determined never to wear the pants her mom sent her.

As she let her mind wander, she didn’t quite catch the rest of what Mrs. Liu was saying.

She just knew that even as she exited the elevator, Mrs. Liu kept going on about the girl without stopping.

"So noisy and chattering, obvious she’s a poor soul without confidence. I can’t be bothered to argue with her."

"Goodbye."

But you’ve already argued with her, ma’am.

Ning Youguang awkwardly but politely bid farewell to Mrs. Liu.

...

"What happened?" Shi Wangyue asked, getting up from the living room sofa upon hearing the door open, and saw Ning Youguang come in with a bunch of flowers, wearing a troubled expression.

"Hmm?" Ning Youguang looked at him in surprise, "How come you’re back so early today?"

"The office gave us a holiday, so I came back earlier." Shi Wangyue walked over to her, taking the flowers from her hands, "Out buying flowers?"

"No." Ning Youguang put the shoes she changed out of into the shoe cabinet, "I went out for a bike ride, and passed by the flower shop, saw the tulips looked nice, so I grabbed some."

"They do look nice." Shi Wangyue bowed his head to softly smell their fragrance, "Why did you look so upset when you came in just now?"
