She pointed at the manager, clearly not having any inclination to let others admire her personal belongings, "You better look carefully. If the item isn’t with me, you’d better give me an explanation."
The manager took the bag from her hands, gave her a heavy look, and only then turned towards the counter.
The onlookers, all eager for drama, were also curious whether the item was with her or not. However, since she specified that the manager alone could look, nobody dared to make trouble.
Approaching the counter, the manager gently emptied the contents of Lan Shan’s bag, carefully searching through but not finding the item they were looking for.
Inside was nothing but a mobile phone, a lipstick, some personal items, and nothing else. Reluctantly, she searched again.
But in one of the bag’s compartments, she found a---diamond black card. Her heart skipped a beat. She looked up and fiercely glared at the female clerk.
Without saying a word, she put everything back into the bag and quickly headed towards Lan Shan.
Returning to her, her tone made a complete 360° change, "Ma’am, here’s your bag."
Lan Shan took the bag and gave her a slight glance, "So, did you find what you were looking for?"
"This..." The manager was momentarily at a loss, unsure of how to speak.
The clerk stepped forward, "Manager, why are you hiding the truth, just say what you found! We have so many people here, are you afraid of just these two?"
"Shut up."...Already upset with no outlet for the anger, this naive girl hadn’t yet realized she’d offended someone.
Even though she didn’t know the true identity of the woman before her, just the sight of that diamond black card was enough to know this person was not simple.
Stunned by the reprimand, the clerk was left bewildered... What’s going on? Wasn’t everything fine just a moment ago? Why the change now?
"Manager, is the item on these two ladies?"
"Didn’t I tell you to shut up, didn’t you hear?" The manager scolded angrily, berating her harshly, "How on earth do you handle things, losing the item yourself and still shamelessly accusing others of theft?"
Does she even consider... do they need to take anything?
Completely puzzled by the scolding and not understanding, she was just about to speak when another colleague’s voice was heard behind her.
"Found it, the other earring has been found." Everyone turned towards the source of the voice, only to see another clerk holding a box, and inside was the pair of earrings, intact.
"Manager, we just searched again and found the other one had fallen under the counter, probably accidentally knocked off when it was put away."
"Sss..."
A sharp intake of breath, everyone turned to look at the female clerk who was previously so arrogant.
"Was she really wronged? Turns out it was her own mistake, not securing the item properly, and in the end, she blamed someone else."
"Oh dear, truly the world is going downhill. Now even a small clerk dares to speak so arrogantly. Looks like we need to be more cautious in the future."
"Yes, just a little clerk, after all, acting like a big shot. Always fawning over well-dressed customers, scowling at those dressed modestly."
"Yes, that’s exactly how it is!"
Listening to the surrounding chatter, the clerk’s face turned dark... Clearly, they were just joining her in blaming them earlier, how did they suddenly change their tune?
