“Of course not. We display the more affordable pieces in our store. The really expensive and good ones are put away because many customers touch them with their hands. If we get sweat stains on the gems and diamonds, it will affect their radiance.”

“Oh…” When Liang Yin heard this, her expression darkened.

The displayed designs looked so mediocre and yet they were priced at tens of thousands. Wouldn’t the expensive ones cost hundreds of thousands then?

She felt quite torn. Or perhaps, she was feeling a little upset that her rather full purse was about to be emptied.

Forget it!

She decided to take a look first. In any case, it didn’t cost anything to browse.

“None of these styles look good. Could you show me the nicer ones!”

The shop assistant muttered to herself, but had no grounds to refuse. “Wait here for me!” she instructed. With that, she turned and headed for the vault.

At this point,, another shop assistant came over, looking nervous. “Did you see the individual sapphire ring displayed in cabinet A?”

“What’s the matter?” The shop assistant was also wary. “Don’t tell me… that woman really is a thief?”

“The sapphire ring is missing.”

The two of them walked to cabinet A. As expected, the sapphire ring that had been displayed in it was gone.

They were both dumbfounded.

“No way! I had my eyes on her the whole time. She walked past Cabinet A, but I didn’t see her touch it!”

“What do you know? Some thieves are top-notch. They can get away with it without anyone noticing! Don’t let her go, we have to clarify the situation. I’ll check with the manager again. In case it’s been put away.”

“Okay.”

The shop assistant turned around and walked up to Liang Yin. Seeing that she had returned empty-handed, Liang Yin was puzzled. “Eh? Didn’t you go to get the cufflinks?”

“The vault isn’t open. Perhaps you could take a look at these other items.”

When Liang Yin heard this, she could only assume that this shop assistant thought she couldn’t afford it and was just patronizing her. Her anger boiled over and she finally said impatiently, “Forget it! I’m not buying it!”

She thought she’d go take a look at other counters!

Didn’t Qin Zhou like Versace too?

She did notice a lit Versace logo as she passed. On the way here, she had searched online and learned about the brand’s logo. She did her homework.

Seeing that Liang Yin was about to leave, the staff stopped her! “You can’t leave!”

In her excitement, the staff grabbed Liang’s wrist.

Liang Yin struggled and grimaced. “What are you doing? Why aren’t you letting me leave?”

“Didn’t you say you wish to buy cufflinks for your boyfriend?”

“Yes. But you’re not going to show me the good stuff. None of the ones on display look good.”

“Don’t go yet.” That was all the staff said. She even looked around at her colleagues. “What now?”

A moment later, the manager and his colleague hurried over, looking flustered. “The sapphire ring is gone.”

“It’s really gone!?”

The shop assistant was furious the moment she heard that, and gave Liang Yin a hard shove. “Return the ring!”

Liang Yin was confused. After being pushed, she stumbled a few steps back and almost fell.

She was furious too, and shouted, “What are you doing?!”

The shop assistant was belligerent. “A sapphire ring is missing from our counter. Did you steal it?”

“Ha!” Liang Yin smiled. So she was being treated as a thief?! “Do you have proof? Without proof, aren’t you simply slandering people?”
