Wang Meishu didn't get support from Mrs. Leng, but she wasn't discouraged. When she encountered Li Si, she mentioned this matter.
Li Si didn't hesitate and directly refused, saying there would be only one branch; they would just have those in Beijing! And added that if her aunt wanted to open in another city, she wouldn't object.
This almost made Wang Meishu furious. Why should a native of Beijing go somewhere else to open this beauty salon?
She wanted to open it precisely because she had family, friends, and classmates here. Who would she know if she went elsewhere?
So in the end, nothing came of it, and she was quite dissatisfied.
Moreover, when she went back and complained to Ouyang Zhenglin, she was scolded again, being asked if she had any demeanor of an elder and how she could take advantage of the younger generation.
In a nutshell, she gained nothing from anywhere and felt very frustrated inside.
