Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Stealing Customers?
Just like that, in less than an hour, the rough hands of the two bodyguards were already filled with big and small gift bags.
They had no choice but to deliver these items to the car’s trunk in batches, making sure not to leave their post unattended.
"Huahua, did you just..."
"It’s fine, let’s go, let’s hurry and choose our couple rings. I’m paying, don’t argue with me." Leng Lingxiao straightened up proudly, looking quite haughty.
"Tch, Mr. Jealous Jar, hahaha."
"If you talk nonsense again, I’ll just..."
Before he finished speaking, Tang Xiaowan immediately covered her mouth and shook her head, "Alright, alright, I won’t talk anymore, my fault, I definitely won’t mention it again."
A man in love is too fearsome!
She had almost been kissed to suffocation by him just now, and her head was still all dizzy.
Rough, barbaric, assertive...
A series of labels flooded into Tang Xiaowan’s mind, equating them with Leng Lingxiao, although she was happy about it in her heart, she wouldn’t admit it out loud.
"What are you... doing?" Leng Lingxiao’s thin lips curved slightly, eyeing his little wife intently.
Did he not understand Tang Xiaowan’s little mind?
"Oh, it’s nothing, let’s go quickly."
"Really... nothing?"
"Nothing, nothing, let’s hurry."
Immediately after, Tang Xiaowan, dragging Leng Lingxiao’s arm, walked straight into Wanhua Jewelry.
A store clerk greeted them enthusiastically.
She noticed the ruby necklace and ring on Tang Xiaowan’s hand, certain they were diamond-level customers, immediately raising her spirits to the utmost.
"Sir, miss, may I help you with anything?" the clerk asked with a smile.
Tang Xiaowan looked around, furrowing her brows lightly, "We want to pick a pair of couple rings, and need to engrave names on them, but something simple, not too ostentatious, because I’m still studying, and it isn’t very convenient."
The clerk understood Tang Xiaowan’s needs.
She smiled and led Tang Xiaowan and him to a separate display area.
Here, various Flower Rings and couple rings were displayed, each embodying the designer’s ingenuity and exquisite craftsmanship.
Leng Lingxiao and Tang Xiaowan stood side by side in front of the display case, holding hands, picking carefully.
"Should we look at another store if this doesn’t work out?"
"Yeah, let’s see first."
Their conversation made the clerk somewhat flustered.
"What do you think about this pair?" the clerk took out a new pair of rings, asking respectfully.
The design of the rings was very unique, set with nine not-too-large but top-quality diamonds, understated yet with a hint of luxury.
Tang Xiaowan gently shook her head.
"No, it’s still too flashy, choose something smaller, with rubies, the tiny kind."
The clerk had no option but to continue recommending other styles.
A few minutes later, Tang Xiaowan’s gaze settled on a pair of couple rings.
The design was very simple, with no unnecessary adornments, merely a small, slightly protruding ruby on the face of the ring.
An inlay technique, simple yet elegant.
Tang Xiaowan gently picked up the pair of rings, examined them in her hand, and couldn’t help but smile slightly.
It wasn’t until then that Leng Lingxiao realized his little wife wanted something low-profile, also to match the ruby necklace on her hand.
"Huahua, how about this pair then? I think they look pretty good and they’re quite simple."
Leng Lingxiao nodded with satisfaction and turned to the clerk, "Please help us engrave names separately, for the men’s... Tangtang, for the women’s... Huahua."
"Okay, no problem."
They promptly began measuring sizes.
"Men’s size 20, women’s size 11." After the clerk made the note, they asked respectfully, "What kind of font would you two like? Where exactly would you like the engraving?"
"Tangtang, you tell me, I’ll listen to you," Leng Lingxiao looked at Tang Xiaowan with affection and contentment.
"For the font, well... anything is fine, actually, as long as it looks nice. As for where to engrave, it should be on the opposite side of the Ruby, but... on the outside, not the inside, I mean on the surface."
"Good, got it. Please come with me to the rest area over there to enjoy some tea and snacks."
"No, thanks, you go ahead with your work. We’d like to have a look around, just wander a bit, don’t mind us." Tang Xiaowan cheerfully took Leng Lingxiao’s hand.
"Okay, call me if you need anything."
The clerk pointed to their name badge and then hurried off with the tray of couple rings, heading to the processing area.
Who knew, in less than two minutes, a bustling noise of competing questions erupted from outside the store.
It turned out that Li Zishen was being surrounded by reporters.
Seeing this, the bodyguards hidden in the shadows immediately took positions close to Leng Lingxiao and Tang Xiaowan, ready to act at any moment.
Leng Lingxiao always kept a low profile, and thus, no one had noticed him and Tang Xiaowan on their way here.
But now it was different.
Li Zishen was being interviewed by a gaggle of reporters, and it was inevitable that a few observant ones would notice Leng Lingxiao shopping here, and with a beauty at that—prime material for explosive news.
Moreover, at Jinda University’s anniversary celebration, Leng Lingxiao had already revealed that he had a girlfriend.
Today’s trip to the mall was meant to flaunt his intimacy with Tang Xiaowan in front of Li Zishen, but at the same time, he didn’t want to expose Tang Xiaowan to gossip news.
That was something Tang Xiaowan detested as well.
"Huahua, let’s just not go out, okay?"
Leng Lingxiao’s lips curved slightly, he asked thoughtfully, "Afraid of what, afraid of bumping into Li Zishen?"
"No, what are you imagining now? I’m just thinking, in case we’re spotted by reporters, it would disrupt our little stroll. Who told you to be so famous?" Tang Xiaowan pouted in response, with a hint of coquettishness.
"Alright, then let’s not go out."
As soon as he said that, Leng Lingxiao gave a signal to the bodyguards; they quickly withdrew to the outside of the shop, ready to block any paparazzi who might try to come in during the confusion.
Yishen Mall is a gathering spot for luxury goods, and it’s also a check-in point for fashionistas.
Among the customers here, the bodyguards could still discern who were actual customers and who were disguised reporters; thus, they would definitely not affect the regular operations of Wanhua Jewelry.
"Tangtang, this one seems alright, give it a try." Leng Lingxiao took a fancy to a pair of earrings, enthusiastically pointing them out to Tang Xiaowan.
"Don’t we already have several pairs at home? No need to try, we buy so many I can hardly wear them all!"
"Try them on anyway, the style is different."
At this time, another clerk noticed them and immediately hustled over to attend to them.
Tang Xiaowan raised an eyebrow: Trying to snag a sale?
"Where’s Fangfang? Please call Fangfang over."
Upon hearing this, the clerk smiled hurriedly and said, "Miss, you can tell me whatever you need. My name is Lili, Fangfang is busy right now. Would you like to try on these earrings? Just a moment, I’ll get them for you right now..."
"That won’t be necessary, please call Fangfang over," Tang Xiaowan emphasized again.
"Miss, actually, the service is the same no matter who provides it. How about I introduce you to the design concept of these earrings? It’s by..."
Just then, Fangfang arrived quickly.
The display area wasn’t far from the processing area, and she had heard Tang Xiaowan calling her name.
"Sorry, Lili, but I’m assisting these customers. I had to step away for a bit. Excuse me, please make some space." As Fangfang spoke, she took out the corresponding glass cabinet key.
Her words were polite and her movements
