Chapter 362: A Sudden Confession
It so happened that when Ye Ziming went to register, there was only one spot left.
In other words, if they had been a little later, they would have missed out on this event.
“This requires you to register as our member… Ah, it seems sir is already a VIP here…”
While Xiaomuqing was mumbling to herself, Ye Ziming was completing the registration with the staff and simultaneously submitting Ye Mengze’s account.
This jewelry store was part of a national chain, a well-known one.
Speaking of which, the necklace Ye Ziming gave Xiaomuqing a few days ago was bought with his sister’s VIP at a branch of this store.
Thanks to the VIP status, the registration process was significantly shortened, and all matters were completed in no time.
“You two are all set. Later, you just need to participate in the event over there…”
After finishing everything, the female store employee, with a very enthusiastic smile, was about to give Ye Ziming the last few points of notice.
However, halfway through her sentence, the smile on the employee’s face suddenly froze. Immediately after, her eyes widened in surprise.
The reason was that Xiaomuqing had been following behind Ye Ziming and looking around, so the employee hadn’t seen her face clearly.
But when the employee finally saw her clearly, she was surprised to find that this little sister seemed… a bit younger. (Fingertip Universe)
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing the employee hesitate and look at Xiaomuqing with a troubled expression, Ye Ziming asked curiously.
“Uh, it’s like this. I suddenly remembered that this event of ours has an age restriction.”
Looking at Xiaomuqing, then at Ye Ziming, the employee said with a frown, looking very troubled.
“Oh?”
Ye Ziming raised an eyebrow in surprise.
“If you are under fourteen years old, you cannot participate in our event.”
“?”
“Please understand. First, we are preventing people from exploiting loopholes by bringing a child to participate. Second, it is illegal if they are under fourteen years old.”
The employee explained the problem to Ye Ziming in a very tactful tone, with a polite smile.
Hearing this explanation, Ye Ziming was completely bewildered and confused, and couldn’t react immediately.
After a couple of seconds, he turned to look at Xiaomuqing and suddenly understood what it meant.
Then, his smile became very subtle, the corners of his mouth curving slightly as he suppressed his laughter.
“Huh? Wait, you mean… I’m under fourteen?!”
Xiaomuqing’s reaction was a bit delayed. It wasn’t until Ye Ziming and the employee looked at her together that she quickly blinked a couple of times and realized what was happening.
Damn it! Her clothes were just a bit too pink and had some cartoon patterns on them!?
She admitted that the clothes did make her look younger, she was aware of that, but she definitely didn’t look *that* young!
Thinking this, Xiaomuqing couldn’t stay calm at all and stared at the employee with great dissatisfaction.
This… felt like hitting a sore spot…
“Um… little sister, don’t worry.”
The employee became nervous immediately, raising her hands as if to comfort the little sister in front of her.
“I’m not little!”
Xiaomuqing had already lost her temper.
Fortunately, Ye Ziming was there at the crucial moment. He quickly stood in front of Xiaomuqing and explained to the employee on her behalf.
“She’s seventeen, and will be an adult this year…”
It wasn’t difficult to explain. He happened to have a photo of Xiaomuqing’s ID card on his phone, so he could just show it.
Afterward, Ye Ziming patted Xiaomuqing’s head to soothe her emotions and led her to the backstage to prepare.
Before they left, the
