32 A Fall or an Act? (2/2)

Why is Ms. Han still here? Didn't she just want a trim or does she want something else done?

Han Lili took another glance at Su Lian, seeing she was nowhere near being finished her hair, she decided to stall for time.

”No, not yet. I want some temporary color. Dark brown.”

Zhao Li nodded her head and proceeded to work diligently.

By the time she had finished, the lady styling Su Lian's hair had finished as well.

Su Lian and Bella were already outside the door by the time Han Lili caught up and 'bumped' into them. She tumbled to the ground from the impact of the 'fall'.

”I'm so sorry. Are you okay?” Looking at the woman sprawled on the floor, Su Lian hurriedly apologized and helped her up.

Patting her clothes, Han Lili put on a pitiful expression and pretended to force a smile.

”I'm fine and it's my fault. I wasn't looking where I was going.”

”No, we were blocking the door, I didn't know.” Su Lian scanned Han Lili from head to toe ensuring that she wasn't hurt.

Bella looked on at this farce and felt bewildered. 'When did her prudent boss become naive? How is she unable to see through such a simple act? This person is clearly pretending.'

While Bella was still trying to figure out the meaning of life, Han Lili started rummaging through her purse with a panicked expression.

”Did you drop something?”

”Yes, my wallet. I'm supposed to meet up my friends at the mall and I'm already a few minutes late. I was planning to take a taxi to B Mall, but I can't anymore.”

”We're going to B Mall too. Do you need a ride?”

Su Lian didn't completely trust this woman, but her appearance kind of reminded her of her son and 'him', she didn't know why.

”Alright thank you. I will tell my friends that I'll be a little late.” Han Lili felt very happy that her plan succeeded and used this moment to text her driver waiting in the parking lot to go home.
