Chapter 909 — Wei Zhao's Final Decision
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Yes." Wei Zhao nodded. He had not expected such good service from this jewelry company; he had meant only to browse, but now he decided to buy here.
In truth, every jewelry shop in the Pengzhan Building carried much the same goods. What set them apart was mainly the service.
"What would you like to choose, sir? For yourself, or as a gift for a friend?" the saleswoman asked.
"I'd like to buy a ring for my girlfriend," Wei Zhao said.
"A ring? For your girlfriend?" The saleswoman nodded. "Is it an ordinary gift, or a proposal ring?"
"A proposal ring, I suppose..." Wei Zhao sighed softly. She was the first girl to become officially involved with him, and on the eve of his departure, Wei Zhao had made a decision.
"Then over here, sir — these are all wedding rings. What price range did you have in mind? They run from a few thousand yuan to tens of thousands..." The saleswoman gestured toward the rings in a display case.
"This one, then. How much is it?" Wei Zhao knew nothing about jewelry and had little idea how to choose, so he picked a ring with a slightly larger diamond — because he had heard that with diamond rings, the bigger the diamond, the better.
"This one..." The salesgirl was taken aback. What Wei Zhao had set his eyes on was the store's crowning treasure! Her heart thumped. If it actually sold, the commission would be enormous! She had only started working here two days ago; if she could really close this sale, she would make a killing!
"What's the matter?" Wei Zhao asked, seeing the salesgirl hesitate.
"Nothing..." The salesgirl shook her head. "This ring is the store's crowning treasure. It's kept locked in the counter. Would you wait a moment? I'll call the manager and have him come open it for you!"
"All right," Wei Zhao said with a nod.
The salesgirl was just about to make the call when a saleswoman from the neighboring shop, a place called Yunguangdu Jewelry, glanced at the girl before Wei Zhao with a hint of mockery. "Ask him whether he can afford it before you call. Carrying on like that, on the phone all day long, you'll waste yourself to death on phone bills alone!"
Wei Zhao frowned. What business was it of hers if he bought jewelry? Was she jealous because he hadn't bought from her shop? But Wei Zhao had no wish to stir up trouble just now, and he forced down his temper and said nothing.
"I'm sorry, sir. Please pay her no mind." The salesgirl gave Wei Zhao an embarrassed smile, then went on with her call.
"Hmph! No good deed goes unpunished!" The saleswoman from Yunguangdu Jewelry gave a cold snort and turned away. She was indeed a little jealous of Liu Weishan Jewelry's sales, and so she had deliberately made those cutting remarks, hoping to drive the customers away from the other side. "Look at what he's wearing. Could a man like that ever afford your crowning treasure?"
