His Genius Wife is a Superstar

A few hours ago.

Wei Lan was scheduled for a facial at a new mall spa that she happened to notice while shopping. She had never been here before but it looked nice, so she wanted to try it, immediately scheduling an appointment. Due to her high exposure in the media recently, the spa employees recognized her in an instant. The estheticians fought for her. In the end, one won over the others.

Unfortunately, this esthetician assigned to take care of her experienced a family emergency on the day of the appointment and had to cancel at the last minute. All the other estheticians were fully booked that day, but the spa management didn't want to cancel Wei Lan's appointment because they already viewed her as the first VVIP of their establishment. They were afraid that if they cancelled her current appointment and tried to reschedule her, they wouldn't be able to keep her as a regular client. Thus, they decided to prioritize her and had another esthetician delay an appointment with her scheduled client in order to squeeze Wei Lan.

Unaware of the shady business going on behind the scenes, Wei Lan arrived at the spa for her appointment and strutted like the viscountess that she was. Everyone greeted her, making her feel extremely important and pleasing her to great heights.

"Good afternoon, Vizcondesa Lan," an esthetician greeted and introduced herself. "I'll be taking care of you today. Please follow me."

A big, charming smile broke out of Wei Lan's face. The esthetician, other spa employees and customers in the waiting area were dazed for a few seconds because her smile resembled her daughter, Iris Long. There was no doubt that Iris Long inherited a good portion of her beauty from Wei Lan.

After everyone started regaining their senses, Wei Lan followed the esthetician inside for her facial, not knowing that the young woman wasn't the one originally assigned to her.

A few minutes later, the esthetician's original client arrived.

It was Zhu Ning.

She was one of the spa's first clients ever since it opened, making her familiar with most of the employees.

"Good afternoon, Madam Ning," the receptionist greeted, trying to hide her panic.

"Hi. I'm ready for my facial," she replied and looked around, expecting to see her usual esthetician. She frowned when she didn't find the young woman.

"Uh…Madam Zhu, we have a slight problem today with your appointment," the receptionist said. "Your esthetician is currently unavailable."

"What?!" Zhu Ning's expression turned ugly.

"We sincerely apologize! I tried calling you many times but…."

"So you're telling ME that it's MY fault for not answering your call?" Zhu Ning's angry eyes was shooting invisible daggers at the poor receptionist, scaring the young woman.

"No! That's not the case at all, Madam Zhu," the receptionist said in a hurry.

Zhu Ning intimidated the poor receptionist a little bit more before snorting. "So? Tell me what happened."

The receptionist then made up a random excuse for the unavailable esthetician, not admitting that she was working on another client because it would surely infuriate the already frustrated Zhu Ning.

"If it's alright with Madam Zhu to wait around two hours, she'll manage to take care of you today. But if it's inconvenient to Madam, then we'll have to reschedule your appointment for another day."

"Just give me another esthetician," Zhu Ning said, a scowl on her face.

"I'm sorry, Madam Zhu, but all of our estheticians are booked today."

"What an unprofessional spa!"

Zhu Ning started complaining, insulting, and arguing with the receptionist, eventually reducing the poor young woman to tears. The manager and other staff were forced to make an appearance to comfort the receptionist and try to appease the raging Zhu Ning. However, Zhu Ning didn't stop. She refused to accept their explanations and offers, spending almost two hours making a ruckus. Even when the mall security was called, they still couldn't control Zhu Ning.

Everyone was now fed up with Zhu Ning. The commotion she was causing was affecting the spa's business. They weren't able to answer calls or cater to their other clients. Some of the arriving clients even left as soon as they saw the commotion, not bothering to check in at the reception desk.

"What in the world is happening out here? Why is it so noisy?" Wei Lan's voice sounded from the inner hallway until she finally appeared with a refreshed and dewy skin from the facial. Zhu Ning's original esthetician followed behind her.

As soon as Zhu Ning saw Wei Lan with her esthetician, she immediately made the connection as to why her appointment had to be cancelled. Her ugly expression turned even uglier.

"So it's you, slut! You're the one who caused this mess for me! How dare you steal my appointment and esthetician!"

Wei Lan was shocked to see a furious Zhu Ning shouting at her. She had no idea what was going on, only thinking that the crazy woman was unable to control herself upon seeing her as usual. If this was before, Wei Lan would have already shouted at Zhu Ning and fought with her, but now she controlled her temper.

'You're a viscountess now,' she told herself.

She lifted her chin and showed an uninterested expression. "I don't knooooow what you're talking about," she told Zhu Ning before ignoring her. Then she turned to the esthetician and the other spa employees. "Thaaaaaaank you for today. I need to go now. Goodbyyyyyyyye!"

"Goodbye, Vizcondesa Lan! Please come again," they told her in a fawning tone.

This exchange between Wei Lan and the employees in addition to being ignored infuriated Zhu Ning even more. She pounced and started attacking Wei Lan. The spa employees and the other clients tried to block her and protect Wei Lan. However, Zhu Ning was like an out of control, violent chimpanzee.

She grabbed the front of Wei Lan's dress, almost ripping it off of her body, all the while clawing, hitting and even kicking her. When Wei Lan's French twist hairdo came loose from the violent movements, Zhu Ning grabbed her hair and pulled hard.
