Lin Beichen noticed that the jacket Lan Zihua picked for him was made of leather, with a novel style and excellent quality.

"She's really thoughtful, choosing such a nice outfit for me," Lin Beichen thought to himself, but didn't express it.

However, when Lan Zihua approached the counter to pay, her face suddenly turned pale.

"We have a bit of a problem," she said awkwardly to Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen asked concernedly, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Lan Zihua smiled wryly, "I didn't bring my wallet or phone."

She had been so busy lately that she forgot about these everyday matters.

Lin Beichen laughed upon hearing this; this careless girl indeed had such an adorable side.

At this moment, the clerk behind the counter looked at them, a cold smile on her lips: "No money, huh? So, do you have money?"

The clerk was obese, ugly-looking, and had a rude, arrogant attitude.

Lin Beichen didn't argue with her but handed over a bank card instead.

"That's more like it." The clerk took the card, inserted it into the machine, but it beeped with the sound of "beep beep beep," "Your card has no money."

Lin Beichen was stunned; he hadn't used this card for a long time, perhaps the bank froze the funds or for some other reason.

He smiled wryly and said to Lan Zihua, "Looks like we're both pretty unlucky, neither of us has any money."

"What should we do now?" Lan Zihua frowned, looking at Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen thought for a moment: "I'll call a friend to bring some money."

Just then, the attitude of the clerk darkened, deliberately picking a quarrel: "If you don't have money, don't act like you're important! Calling someone to buy for you? Who do you think you are? Do you really have that much face?"

After saying that, she heavily slammed the packed bag on the desk.

Lin Beichen's face darkened: "Is this your service attitude? Is this how you treat customers?"

The clerk sneered: "With your shabby look, you still want me to treat you nicely? Not scolding you is already good enough!"

"I'm telling you, these are the latest styles, if you don't buy them, someone else will! Hurry and return the clothes, or I'll call someone!" She put her hands on her hips and yelled, increasingly arrogant.

Lin Beichen's face became more unsightly: "Interesting, you dare to speak to me like that? Have I shown you respect?"

With that, he threw the clothes on the ground.

Not to mention his current high status, even if he were just an ordinary person, he would not tolerate such treatment.

Lan Zihua nodded in agreement beside him: "Right, they shouldn't be tolerated! Their attitude is too bad! We are the ones supporting them, without customers like us, what do they count as?"

"Exactly, these people are too arrogant, daring to run wild in front of me!" said Lan Zihua angrily.

Lin Beichen nodded: "You're right. Call your manager, I want to have a good talk with him."

"Sure, you want the manager, huh? I'll call him for you!" The clerk jumped up, clapping her hands.

Soon after, four or five burly security guards emerged from the back, surrounding Lin Beichen and the others.

"Sister, any orders?" the guards asked.

The clerk smiled smugly, looking at Lin Beichen with disdain: "Earlier, this bastard said he wanted to settle me, teach this guy a lesson for me!"

"No problem!" The guards roared, about to make a move on Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen smiled slightly, unexpectedly this clerk had some backing. In this store, her status was obviously not low.

As a matter of fact, this clerk was the sister of the store owner. In the past, their family had put all resources into nurturing him to become the boss while this sister had to drop out early to work.

As the owner's business gradually started, he remembered his sister, who had gone through thick and thin with him, feeling a pang of guilt. This guilt was inexpressible; he felt he owed her too much.

So, he used his resources and money to arrange a receptionist position for her in the company.

This special favor allowed her to maintain her position in the company, even if she wasn't always friendly. This was her backing, which made her appear rather proud within the company.

However, the guards were all ears to this clerk. At this moment, they were ready to take action against Lin Beichen.

Nonetheless, they misjudged because they vastly underestimated Lin Beichen's strength.

Even powerhouses several times stronger than them would be in vain before Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen curled his lips into a cold smile, gently waving his hands, as if an invisible force surged through the air.

Next, like a level ten hurricane sweeping through, those bodyguards were blown away like leaves in a Gale, lying scattered across the floor.

This scene left everyone present in utter shock, especially the female clerk, who stared wide-eyed, utterly unable to believe what had just happened. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Although she knew before that Lin Beichen was skilled, she never imagined his power to be this terrifying, instantly "defeating" all these bodyguards.

The clerk now was trembling all over, her lips quivering slightly, unable to utter a single word.

Lin Beichen slowly walked over to her, let out a cold chuckle, and said, "Little sister, remember, there is always someone stronger and a sky beyond the sky. It's better to keep a low profile and not be so arrogant."

After saying this, he reached out, and the clerk let out a shriek, her shoulder gently pressed by Lin Beichen.

"Today, I'll give you a little lesson."

As he finished speaking, Lin Beichen waved his right hand, and the clerk's beautiful hair was suddenly cut by invisible scissors, fluttering to the ground.
