Chapter 391: Chapter 390 I’m here to cause trouble (Part 2)

Miss was so angry, she couldn’t be jealous, could she? It’s not like I was trying to seduce them. They were the ones hitting on me. I’m innocent, and wasn’t it all for the new Tianxue Jewelry store? Lin Tian really couldn’t figure out why Miss was so mad.

He slightly lowered his head and whispered to Miss, "Miss, don’t be jealous. Bathed daily in your unparalleled charm, I’ve become immune to such beauty. Rest assured, my heart always belongs to the Xiao Family, to you and Second Miss."

After speaking, Lin Tian hesitated for a moment, wondering why he cared so much about Miss’s opinion. Did he have feelings for her? Miss was always the one who challenged him.

Before he could think it through, Lin Tian felt a pinch on his waist—it was Miss’s hand twisting up. Looking at her pretty face, it was already turning slightly red.

"With so many people around, what are you blabbering about, you bastard? Who said I wanted to be in your heart? Watch your tongue in the future or I’ll cut it off," Miss said, her face flushed, yet she threatened fiercely.

However, Lin Tian felt no threat from her words. Moreover, wasn’t Miss confused? He had just mentioned he cared about the Xiao Family and Second Miss too, so why did she only hear the words "Miss"? He couldn’t understand the thinking of women.

"Sir, talk to me some more, please. Help my sister and me out," the updo lady urged Lin Tian as he paused, her tone now carrying a flirty undertone that almost made Lin Tian’s skin crawl.

By now, the store had gathered quite a crowd, originally there just for the spectacle. But after hearing Lin Tian discuss "aesthetic pairings," some began to join his faithful audience, hoping that the "master" would share more, just like these wealthy wives.

The herd mentality is quite frightening. Had they seen Lin Tian walking down the street, they would have merely thought he was a handsome young man. However, as some spectators found his comments useful, others began to think the same.

Of course, some were purely there for the entertainment. However, the situation was tough on the waitstaff. Though the shop seemed bustling, it wasn’t conducive to business, and if this young man were to make any improper comments, it could really hurt the shop.

Lin Tian glanced at the onlookers and secretly rejoiced. Crowds were good; how else could he outshine the Bai Family?

The curly-haired woman added, "Sir, my skin isn’t that great. What should I do?"

"White or not doesn’t define good skin. Yours is darker, but it has a healthy glow. If you want your skin to appear lighter, opt for a darker necklace, maybe a deeper yellow, which can soften the skin’s appearance," Lin Tian casually mentioned the basics, yet she seemed very pleased.

"And, your neck isn’t that long, and you have a larger face shape. You should wear slightly longer necklaces with deeper necklines, low-cut styles, exposing the delicate length of the necklace, which will make your neck look longer," Lin Tian stated seriously.

"Low-cut attire, huh? Sir, you’re so naughty," the curly-haired woman flirted, giving Lin Tian an alluring glance and pouting playfully.

"Cough cough... I’m just sticking to the facts," Lin Tian coughed twice and felt compelled to clarify, these wealthy ladies were just a bit too enthusiastic.

Two sharp glares shot his way, and without looking, Lin Tian knew it was Miss glaring at him.

"Lin Tian, that was enough, why go into such detail!" Miss whispered softly, although she knew she was causing trouble, she still couldn’t stand to see Lin Tian being hit on by these women.

"My Miss, we need a crowd for this to be interesting," Lin Tian replied, then turned to a waitress and said, "Miss, you have premium jade here, right? Let’s have a look."

"Yeah, with so many of us here, Bai’s Jewelry wouldn’t be showing us low-quality stuff, right?" a louder voice emerged from the crowd.

"Everyone..." A voice suddenly came from the doorway, and the crowd turned to see a middle-aged man in his fifties at the entrance, dressed in a suit. He walked in and loudly said, "Everyone, Bai’s Jewelry would never deceive anyone. If you all want to see premium jade, we will certainly fulfill your wishes."

"Who is this man?" someone curiously asked.

"Don’t you know? He’s the manager of this store, Qian Fula, Manager Qian. It seems he’s responsible for all Bai’s stores on Jewelry Street. I’ve seen him a few times," someone answered.

Lin Tian was speechless, thinking the manager’s name was indeed impressive, as if his parents wanted him to have all the world’s benefits.

Qian Fula nodded politely to the guests as he walked in unhurriedly. When a path was cleared through the crowd for him, he also spotted Lin Tian and the others and paused, showing a brief expression of surprise.

"It truly is an honor to have the Xiao Family’s Miss in our store," Qian Fula quickly approached, greeting her very politely.

His words stirred the crowd like a hornet’s nest, buzzing discussions erupted, reminiscent of countless buzzing hornets.

In their affluent circles, Miss was definitely a figure of influence, admired for her beauty and intelligence, carrying the responsibilities of the Xiao Family, making many men feel inferior and many women admire her.

"I’ve always heard the name of the Xiao Family’s Miss, but never saw her in person. Seeing her now, she truly lives up to her reputation."

"Even more beautiful than the rumors!"

...

The discussions continued nonstop, instantly turning Xiao Manxue into the center of attention.

The circle of the wealthy is actually quite small, and Miss’s circle even smaller. Aside from work, she only interacted with a few families and was rarely in Xikou City, plus she never appeared in the media, so the general wealthy populace hadn’t really seen her.

"Manager Qian, you flatter me. I’m not the star today; I’m just accompanying him," Miss pointed to Lin Tian, her voice not loud, yet strangely overpowering all other sounds, clearly reaching everyone’s ears.

Lin Tian knew this was an advantage of Ancient Martial Artists. However, her statement once again shifted everyone’s focus, including Qian Fula who had just entered.

Everyone fell silent, and the focus returned to Lin Tian. They had just learned that this young man knew his jade, but none had considered his background.

When the Xiao Family’s Miss mentioned it, everyone finally began to wonder who this young man really was, that even the Miss admitted she was merely accompanying him.

It was Lin Tian’s turn to give Miss a look. If she wanted to keep a low profile, that was fine, but why push him into the spotlight? However, Miss just blinked innocently, pretending not to understand the meaning of his glance.

But a waiter’s comment once again attracted everyone’s attention.

"Manager Qian, this gentleman requested to see the premium jade," the waitress reported truthfully.
