Chapter 643: Seeing you, I thought things here were very cheap

~8 min read 1,433 words

Abby walked out from behind the counter reluctantly and stood in front of Shen Yingying and her husband. Before speaking, she looked them over with impatience and then subconsciously curled her lips.

This woman's collar was pilling, and her entire outfit probably wouldn't exceed ten cents. How dare she come to their store to wander around?

"Please give us two pairs of gloves." He Bin didn't notice the expression on the saleswoman's face and just asked her for gloves: "I also want to touch and feel it."

The saleswoman seemed not to have heard He Bin's words at all. She spoke in a condescending tone: "You two, the area you are looking at now is the central display area of our brand's flagship store. The crystals displayed are all high-grade natural crystals, and the prices are generally on the high side."

Shen Yingying was also a business person, and usually, the "roast meat" shop at home was made by He Bin, while she was responsible for sales to customers.

Therefore, she knew best whether there was emotion in the tone when selling things.

"So what?" Shen Yingying's face sank, and she questioned the young girl in front of her with an unfriendly tone: "Is it that the crystals in this area cannot be touched?"

When she stood her ground, Abby was also stunned for a moment.

She thought that poor people like this would feel guilty and want to run away as soon as they heard the price was high. She didn't expect the other party to dare to question her?

"It's not that they can't be touched, but..."

"Do I have to buy it if I touch it?" Shen Yingying interrupted her and questioned her again.

Abby choked: "That's not it, I mean..."

"Since that's not it, shut your mouth and go get the gloves! Two pairs!"

"I..." Abby's pretty face flushed, and she was speechless for a moment.

She had never seen poor people who were so righteous in their poverty!

But hindered by the presence of other guests in the store and the manager, Abby still obediently went to the counter to get the gloves.

"Here, be gentle when touching the crystal." She subconsciously reminded the guests according to the procedure. As a result, the unhappy emotion in her heart remained after speaking, especially the emotion of looking down on the two guests in front of her, so she added: "It's very expensive!"

"Is that so?" Shen Yingying glanced at her. Instead of being angry, she retorted in a calm tone: "Seeing you standing in the store, I thought things here were very cheap, which is why I came in."

Abby stared in shock and anger, but only met Shen Yingying's half-smiling expression.

He Bin, who was on the side, shook his head helplessly at the young girl, thinking to himself, you little brat, why are you provoking her when you have nothing better to do?

Having been married to Shen Yingying for so many years, almost all external matters were handled by Shen Yingying.

She was generous, enthusiastic, and had a straightforward personality, so customers liked her.

It was true that she was sentimental and prone to tears inside.

But if something happened, she was also sharp-tongued, and her strong side was something he, as her husband, was afraid of seeing.

Especially since his own personality was honest and dull, his wife hated seeing others bully him the most.

"Don't just stand there staring with your big eyes. Is your salary for nothing? Introduce it!" Shen Yingying looked at the young saleswoman and said.

Abby held back her breath, but when she encountered a tough nut to crack, she could only bite the bullet and introduce: "This crystal coral uses natural Roman crystal. Whether it is clarity, color, or carving, it is high-grade..."

"Honey, touch it." Shen Yingying signaled He Bin to reach out and touch it. Although separated by gloves, the temperature of the crystal could still reach the body surface, cool and transparent.

"It's really good, just too expensive." He Bin said.

Upon hearing the words "too expensive," Abby couldn't help but curl her lips. If it weren't for the fact that she was right in front of them, she really wouldn't be able to control herself from rolling her eyes again.

Shen Yingying naturally knew it was expensive, and she didn't intend to buy it, but this young girl's attitude really made her unhappy, so she deliberately insisted on looking at it.

"It is expensive. Let's look at something else and wait for Aci to come over."

Expensive is expensive; there is nothing to avoid about feeling it's expensive. Some people even think their roast goose is expensive.

By comparison, this thing is truly expensive.

As a result, when taking off the gloves, the silk glove was suddenly hooked by Shen Yingying's ring. A long thread of silk was pulled out, and the end was entangled at the connection of Shen Yingying's ring.

"It's hooked." Seeing this, He Bin reached out to help.

But he didn't notice the young saleswoman covering her mouth in shock, and then hurriedly shouted to the manager: "Manager!"

The manager inside looked over upon hearing this. Seeing Abby's expression, it seemed like there was an emergency, so she explained a few words to the guests beside her and walked over: "What's wrong?"

Abby pointed to the glove hooked by the ring.

The manager frowned after just one look. She hurriedly walked into the counter and took out a professional magnifying glass to check the crystal coral that Shen Yingying had just touched.

Seeing this, Shen Yingying couldn't help but look at He Bin, and heard the manager say: "Madam, you cannot wear metal jewelry when touching crystals. Natural crystals are very fragile, and metal jewelry can easily leave scratches on them."

As she spoke, she fixed the magnifying glass in one place and signaled Shen Yingying: "Madam, look for yourself."

Shen Yingying leaned forward and looked very carefully with the naked eye, finding that there was indeed a scratch on the crystal.

"This..."

"Scratched?" He Bin was startled.

The young saleswoman on the side saw that these two poor people had caused trouble, and immediately showed a gloating expression: "I said you couldn't touch it randomly, but you insisted on touching it randomly. Whether you can afford it or not is another matter, but if you break it, you have to pay for it!"

Hearing that she had to pay, Shen Yingying subconsciously looked at the price tag.

Her heart sank immediately.

It was even more expensive than the "sixteen" yuan vase just now. This red crystal gradient coral actually cost more than forty yuan!

"Do I have to pay for the whole thing?" Shen Yingying asked the manager with trepidation in her heart.

The manager nodded: "Madam, if items in the store are damaged by human error, they need to be compensated at the original price."

"Just a scratch, that's not necessary, right?" He Bin was also a little anxious: "You have to use a magnifying glass to see it."

"Actually, even without a magnifying glass, such a long scratch is visible to the naked eye. Sir, Madam, crystal emphasizes the integrity of the crystal body. If the crystal body has flaws, no matter how good the clarity is, it is worthless. I hope you can understand."

Shen Yingying grabbed He Bin in a hurry, knowing that she had caused trouble by accident.

A crystal worth more than forty yuan!

He Bin hurriedly held his wife down: "It's okay, there is money in the card, we can afford to pay."

"It's too much." Shen Yingying felt the pinch. That money was what Aci helped to get back. If it was all used to pay for this piece of crystal, there wouldn't be much left.

Abby saw the expressions of the two, especially the woman who had dared to retort to her just now, who was now anxious and pale. She couldn't help but feel happy in her heart, and she couldn't help but mock them: "In the future, really don't just walk into stores of such luxury brands. What's the use of just having a craving? If you break something, you're anxious here. Being anxious is useless; you still have to pay if you're anxious."

"I think you're the one who's more anxious, right?" Shen Ci appeared in the store at some point, her gaze sternly looking at the saleswoman, and she said in a solemn voice: "Anxious to lose your job and go home early." ===== CHAPTER 644 =====
