Xia Wan sneered, realizing that Xia Ru truly lacked intelligence.

Despite having found a wealthy older man whose money could be used for various investments, she chose to use it to undercut them, even if it meant sacrificing her own interests.

Such behavior from Xia Ru was incredibly narrow-minded.

Xia Wan rolled her eyes and retorted, “This is impossible. If you’re willing to engage in a price war, we’ll accompany you to the end.”

Failing to negotiate with Xia Wan, Xia Ru left in a huff.

Later that afternoon, Xia Wan received a call from Director Song, informing her that everything on their end was prepared. The design sketches she had provided had been put into production by the factory workers.

Xia Wan smiled knowingly and made a decision. The next day, she placed a sign outside the shop that read, “Weekend Event: Entire Store 50% Off.” Passersby who saw the 50% discount immediately flocked to the shop.

Recognizing that the event would be bustling, Xia Wan and her family decided to stay in the store.

Their two hired service staff members assisted in selling clothes, and Liu Hua and Zhou En also rushed over to help.

By nine-thirty in the morning, their clothing store was already full of customers.

Initially, Xia Ru was oblivious to this as she had gone out for a weekend outing with the secretary.

It wasn’t until their store’s employees noticed the unusually low number of customers that they learned about the 50% discount promotion at Xia Wan’s family store.

The employees quickly called the secretary to inquire about how to handle the situation.

At that moment, Xia Ru was happily enjoying ice cream, wearing a sun hat, and snuggling in the secretary’s arms.

The phone call completely disrupted her plans, and she nearly dropped her ice cream.

The secretary’s expression also turned grim.

Rather than immediately displaying a 50% off sign, he instructed the employees to wait for further instructions within the store.

After hanging up the phone, the secretary looked at Xia Ru with a serious expression.

“You previously mentioned being mistreated by your cousin and wanting me to support you by lowering our prices. I followed your instructions.

“But now, explain to me why their store can offer a 50% discount?

“Currently, I’m making a profit of only 2 to 5 yuan on each item I sell. To make a profit of a few dozen yuan, I need to sell at least 10 items.

“Every day, I have to cover high electricity and water bills, as well as employee expenses. If we go for a 50% discount now, I’ll be directly incurring losses.

“I’m willing to support you, but not to squander my money. With this amount of money, we could do so many other things. Why should we cheapen our products just to compete with Xia Wan’s family, at the expense of our customers?”

Xia Ru remained in a daze, shaking her head, and said, “This can’t be possible.

How could Xia Wan’s boss behind the scenes allow her to offer a 50% discount? Doesn’t her boss want to make money?”

The secretary’s deep-set eyes responded, “Are you sure this store isn’t actually owned by Xia Wan herself? Every time I see her, she exudes such confidence and even persuades her boss to offer a 50% discount on clothing.”

Xia Ru immediately refuted, “That’s impossible. Xia Wan’s boyfriend isn’t from this area, and he appears to be extremely wealthy. Why would he get involved in selling clothes like this? He wouldn’t even consider such a small business.” The secretary now had a headache.

He believed that following Xia Ru’s initial suggestion was a mistake. Even if

this store didn’t belong to Xia Wan. if her boyfriend was as wealthy as she

claimed, he would probably secretly provide her with money to oppose them..
