Chapter 691: Chapter 691: There Must Be a Limit to Pretending

"You don’t need to follow in."

Wang Jin’er turned to the bodyguards, their hands full of shopping bags, and spoke before entering the jewelry store with Li Feng.

The bodyguards exchanged looks and decided not to follow; at this point, they didn’t resemble bodyguards so much as attendants.

"Sir, madam, what type of jewelry are you looking to select? We are a renowned jewelry merchant with the most top-notch designers and craftsmen. Of course, if you have any specific requests, you can also opt for our private customization service."

"Show us the most top-tier jewelry you have."

"Hm?"

The clerk was clearly taken aback, given that Li Feng and Wang Jin’er’s current attire could only be described as ordinary, and both were very young, not seeming like people who could afford top-tier jewelry.

"Both of you, the jewelry displayed in our cabinets is already the finest we have. Certainly, if you’re not satisfied, we also offer private customization, but this would depend on this gentleman’s financial capa...!"

The clerk reacted quickly, knowing fully well that not everyone is qualified to access top-tier jewelry; for the two before her, the jewelry in the counter was already quite upscale.

Although the clerk was subtle in her speech, it was clear she didn’t respect them.

However, before she could finish, Li Feng had already passed her a black card: "Is this sufficient?"

The clerk looked at the distinctive black card, slightly stunned, then took it with both hands, sharply inhaling.

"Black Gold Five Stars."

As an employee of Tiffany, she had only heard of it, never seen it before, as these Black Gold Five Stars were issued by Alliance Bank and there weren’t even a thousand in the world, with less than ten in Yan Country.

"Do you need me to verify the authenticity of this card?"

Li Feng looked at the clerk.

The clerk, looking back at Li Feng, became even more humble: "Esteemed guests, right this way, please. I’ll have someone prepare coffee for you while I request the jewelry from the store manager."

Li Feng and Wang Jin’er walked into the VIP room, where the clerk served the coffee and then turned to see the manager.

"What’s going on?"

"Manager, it seems we’ve encountered a major client. This is the client’s card; I’m not sure if it’s authentic."

Passing the Five Star card to the manager, the manager took a deep breath: "This Black Gold Five Star card can be verified globally. Please wait a moment; I’ll contact our headquarters."

Minutes later, the manager returned.

"Manager."

"Where are the clients?"

"Still in the VIP room. Manager, is the card real?"

"Yes, the headquarters specifically called to confirm. A customer with this card is entitled to our highest level of VIP treatment. We must provide excellent service or risk serious damage to our brand’s reputation if any negative word spreads."

After speaking, the manager, accompanied by the clerk, brought out the most top-tier jewelry from the store, including some hidden treasures.

"Esteemed clients, I apologize for the wait. My name is Fannie, the store manager. These are some of our classic top-tier jewelry collections, each crafted by the most elite craftsmen."

"This piece here is the Pink Angel, made from a single flawless pink diamond, the main stone weighing 9.99 carats, symbolizing eternity. Besides that, there are these two earrings, each with 0.99 carats..."

"This piece is the Sea Wave Star crafted by Dali Country’s top craftsmen from sapphire. Although not the largest sapphire in the world, it is the largest one available for purchase in a necklace."

Each piece of jewelry introduced was extremely valuable.

"I think they’re all pretty nice, what do you think?"

Li Feng turned to Wang Jin’er.

Hearing Li Feng’s words, Wang Jin’er turned and said, "You’re not planning to buy everything again, are you?"

They had already visited several stores before, and whenever she expressed a liking for something, Li Feng had not hesitated to buy it all, leaving Wang Jin’er overwhelmed by his tycoon-like behavior, although she had never lacked money. But she was not used to spending millions upon millions like this.

"Why not buy it if you like it."

"Besides, I enjoy buying things for the woman I like," Li Feng said, lifting his eyes to the store manager.

"I’ll take all nine sets."

Before Li Feng finished, someone pushed open the door of the VIP room: "So, everyone is here. I was wondering why the store was so quiet today."

The woman who walked in instantly locked eyes with the jewelry on the table, her eyes lighting up.

"Manager Fannie, you’ve kept these quite hidden. There are three sets I’ve never seen before. What, do you look down on me?"

Fannie looked up at the incoming woman, quickly answering with a smile: "Miss Shuangxue, how could I dare? These three sets were just delivered from our headquarters, especially since our previous store treasures were purchased by you."

"Heh, but it seems those I bought aren’t as nice as these new ones."

"Let’s do this then; I’ll take these new sets as well."

The incoming woman was quite domineering, asking directly for the best few sets of jewelry, causing a bitter expression to cross the store manager’s face: "Miss Shuangxue, these pieces have already been purchased by this gentleman."

"Purchased? Has he paid?"

"If he hasn’t paid, then it doesn’t count as a purchase. Moreover, I am a VIP customer here; surely, I have the right of first refusal."

The woman looked aggressively at the store manager, then walked over to sit on the sofa, removing her glasses to sweep a look over Li Feng and Wang Jin’er, sizing them up briefly before scoffing.

"Heh, dressed so plainly. Fannie, are you sure they can afford your jewelry? You didn’t quote them a price, did you? Tell them the price of these pieces."

"Pink Angel is valued at 150 million, Sea Wave Star at 180 million, and Venus’s Eye at 120 million."

The woman listened to the prices; the three items totalled up to 450 million -- and that didn’t include the other pieces, all of which combined would be at least another 150 million.

A total of almost six hundred million.

The woman crossed her legs, leaning back in the sofa disdainfully looking at Li Feng: "Hey, do you have five hundred million?"

"Don’t overdo the act to impress a girl, only to bite off more than you can chew. I’ll take these three, and I’ll give you one million on top of that."
