Li Beinian looked inside. There were four people and they appeared to be mothers and daughters.
It was obvious from what the salesperson was saying.
After seeing Li Beinian’s dressing, she didn’t quite bother about her.
Li Beinian said, “There are four of them inside, I guess they’d only want two pieces? There should be one left.”
Two pairs of mothers and daughters — and the mothers couldn’t possibly be looking at such a youthful design.
The salesperson knitted her brows. “That’s right. Come in then, and have a seat for a moment. The item will be here soon.”
She sounded a little impatient. Li Beinian smiled at her insincerely and said, “No need, I’ll just look around on my own.”
“Uh, alright.” The attendant turned around quickly and whispered to her colleague, “Keep an eye on her.”
She then got a teapot and poured some tea for the ladies sitting inside as she smiled warmly. “Please wait patiently for a bit more. It’ll come in about 10 minutes.”
“Oh, alright.” The girl in a yellow dress glanced at Li Beinian who was shopping around on her own. “What’s that girl doing here?”
The salesperson whispered, “She’s probably just looking around and will leave soon.”
The girl sneered. “Then she shouldn’t be doing this. How could she be wearing such lwoly clothes and touching your dresses and gowns this way? If she dirties your items, who’s going to pay for them?”
She was loud enough for Li Beinian to hear her clearly.
She scoffed on the inside.
But did not bother to turn around.
A set of cuff links caught her eyes instead. The workmanship was good, the gems were beautiful and the color was rather unique.
It was a nice shade of green.
It’d be good for Mu Donglin.
The attendant came forward and was about to say something when she heard, “This, take it out for me to see it.”
The attendant frowned, “These are emerald cat’s eye stones. They’re very expensive.”
There wasn’t a price tag attached to it. Li Beinian raised her brows slightly. “How expensive is ‘very expensive’?”
“A million yuan would be a conservative figure, I suppose.” A lady’s voice could be heard. She was looking at Li Beinian with disdain. “Emeralds are very fragile. If you spoil it with your touch, can you afford to compensate for it?”
Li Beinian laughed. “Oh, it’s so expensive?”
Upon hearing Li Beinian’s words, the attendant got even more impatient with her. “Miss Tong is right. Emeralds are very delicate gems, we can’t handle it without proper care.”
“Take it out, I want to see it.” Li Beinian repeated herself.
“Tsk, why put up a show?” Tong Yujia shot her a look of despise. “Just leave if you can’t afford it. It’s disgusting to stand so close to low-class people.”
“Your self-awareness is pretty admirable.” Li Beinian glanced at her and took out her Black Card. “Since you know that you disgust people, it’s about time you left.”
Tong Yujia’s expression darkened as she yelled, “Li Beinian!”
Li Beinian eyed her. “You know me?”
Tong Yujia said with contempt, “Who doesn’t know you, at this point? A low-class bastard child, a shameless mistress!”
Bastard child, mistress.
With these terms being hurled out, the rest looked at Li Beinian with even more despise now.
