La forgeronne d'un autre monde

Chapitre 377

"It's alright, only one broke." Ma Yunteng smiled slightly.

"You, I'm going to kill you!" Chen Daniu shouted, his eyes bloodshot.

Bang!

Ma Yunteng kicked again.

This time, Chen Daniu was knocked unconscious.

"Ugh, it broke again." Chen Daniu rolled his eyes and fainted.

Meanwhile, inside a shopping mall.

Li Xiyue took her mother's arm and walked into a jewelry store. Since her mother had come to Jiangnan, she planned to treat her well. She intended to buy her a diamond necklace first, and then take her shopping for clothes.

"Daughter, let's go, everything here is too expensive. This gold necklace around my neck is fine! Don't waste money!" Li's mother didn't want to go into the jewelry store, but Li Xiyue dragged her in anyway.

"Oh, Mom! The hairpin around your neck was a gift from Dad when you got married. You've worn it for decades. Today I'm going to get you a new one!" Li Xiyue frowned and said coquettishly.

"No, no, no, let's go! Look at all these necklaces, they're like money-picking necklaces! My goodness, how can they be so expensive?" Li's mother glanced at the necklaces in the display case. She saw that the cheapest one cost over 100,000 yuan. She could buy more than a dozen of those necklaces with that price tag!

“It’s okay! Your daughter has money now!” Li Xiyue chuckled, then looked directly at one of the diamond necklaces priced at 500,000 yuan, and asked a young female salesperson in front of her, “Hello, could you please take this necklace out for me to look at?”

"Are you looking for this model?" The salesperson was fairly polite.

"Okay, please take it out for me!" Li Xiyue said with a slight smile.

"Okay!" The salesperson took out the diamond necklace, but it was snatched away by another hand as soon as she took it out.

Bang!

A woman with rouge snatched the necklace, then tossed a wad of cash onto the counter, glanced at the salesperson, and smiled, "A thousand yuan, it's yours!"

"I'm sorry, this lady was the one who took a liking to this necklace first," the salesperson said, looking at her with a troubled expression.

"Oh?" The woman with rouge turned her gaze to Li Xiyue and her daughter. When she saw Li's mother's attire, a look of disdain flashed across her face.

But before she could speak, her husband pulled out a hundred-yuan bill from his wallet and threw it in front of them, saying as if giving alms to a beggar, "I'm going to buy this necklace for my wife; this is compensation for you."

“I’m sorry, we were the ones who picked out this necklace first.” Li Xiyue looked at him firmly.

"Oh dear?"

Chapter 267 As Long As You Follow Me

"I'm sorry, we were the ones who chose it first." Li Xiyue looked at him earnestly.

"Oh dear?"

The man smirked, looking at Li Xiyue with disdain, and said, "I'm giving you compensation, aren't I? Look closely, this is how much! Ten thousand yuan!!"

The man's tone was unusually arrogant. He often did this kind of thing. In his opinion, Li Xiyue just wanted to add more chips. He had seen many people like this. In the end, they were all dazzled by his money and then grateful to him.

"Daughter, let her have this necklace, and I don't like it either," Li's mother advised Li Xiyue. Actually, the real reason wasn't that she didn't like it, but that she felt the necklace was too expensive, costing over forty thousand yuan.

"Hmph, poor bastard." The woman with rouge hung the necklace around her neck, pouted, and looked at Li's mother, saying in a low voice. She couldn't stand poor people like this the most, who couldn't afford it but said they didn't like it.

In her view, those who don't have money shouldn't go into jewelry stores; only those as rich as her are qualified to enter.

"What did you say?" A hint of anger appeared on Li Xiyue's pretty face as she stared at her and asked. Actually, Li Xiyue had already given up on buying the necklace because she didn't want to argue with such a low-class person. However, the fact that the other party had called her mother a poor bastard made her feel unbearable.

"Oh ho, I misspoke!"

The woman with rouge sneered, then looked at Li Xiyue and mocked, "Look at what you're wearing! Is there a single decent item on your clothes? One of my bras is enough for you to buy a year's worth of clothes. How dare you try to steal from me? Don't you even take a piss and see what kind of people you are!"

"Young lady, how dare you speak like that!" When Li's mother saw that the other party actually insulted Li Xiyue, she was furious and couldn't help but speak up. She loved Li Xiyue very much and couldn't bear to see her suffer any grievances.

"Heh! All this talk is just to get more money, isn't it?" The woman with rouge glanced at them disdainfully, grabbed her husband's wallet, pulled out a wad of bills, weighed them in her hand, and then gave the two of them a disgusted look. "Is that enough?"

With a bang, the woman in rouge slammed ten thousand yuan onto the counter in front of them.

"I don't want your money, I just want the necklace I've got my eye on," Li Xiyue said calmly. The more unreasonable the other woman was, the less Li Xiyue wanted to give the necklace to her.

"You!" The woman with rouge instantly became furious.

"Damn it! Where's your manager? I'm friends with your manager, call him over here! I can't be bothered arguing with these small fry." The man suddenly shouted loudly. He was a regular at this jewelry store, and the manager always gave him face. He planned to have the manager kick Li Xiyue and her daughter out.

His shout instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the jewelry store.

"Ming-ge, you're here." His voice had barely faded when the manager walked over, carrying two cups of tea. The couple in front of him were regulars at their jewelry store, and it was precisely because of their high spending that he had the opportunity to become the manager.

"Yeah, just passing by! Coming over to patronize your business." Ming took the teacup, took a small sip, and then pointed at Li Xiyue and her daughter, saying:

"Does your store let just anyone in? Don't you even consider the feelings of us high-class people? See those two? They actually dared to try and steal things from my woman! This is seriously affecting our shopping experience! I'm giving you two minutes to kick those two bumpkins out of here!"

"Okay, Brother Ming, please wait a moment." The manager's eyes darted around, and he immediately walked towards Li Xiyue and her daughter. This choice was very simple for him. Brother Ming always gave him a lot of commission every time he came, so he would definitely do as the other party said.

"Hello, I'm the manager of this store. I regret to inform you that the necklace you just looked at has already been pre-ordered by our Brother Ming. If you want this necklace, you can wait for the next batch. Actually, the quality is the same. Thank you for your cooperation, and welcome to visit us again!" the store manager said with a smile.

Since they were guests, he couldn't very well kick Li Xiyue and her daughter out directly, so he could only use this excuse to appease them.
