She was becoming more and more distant from him.

He laughed at himself and asked, “Does every piece of jewelry here have a name?”

As he got closer, Qiao Ruoxi could smell the alcohol on him.

It was morning now. Did he drink again last night?

“Yes.”

“Did anyone change their mind?”

“No, I’m sorry.” Qiao Ruoxi shook her head. “Would you like to see something else?”

Qin Xuming said with a smile, “I’m not interested in anything else. My girlfriend broke up with me and I want to buy her a necklace to beg for her forgiveness.”

Qiao Ruoxi sighed in her heart. Why didn’t Qin Xuming understand that they were already done?

When it came to relationships, breaking up meant a clear break. It was not something that could be easily recovered by buying a necklace and apologizing.

Qiao Ruoxi knew that Qin Xuming was talking to her on purpose, so she took the opportunity to make things clear.

“Sir, I don’t think it’s necessary. Your girlfriend has already proposed to break up with you. Such a woman is not worth your time and effort on her.”

She thought that she had said it clearly enough, but the man’s expression suddenly changed and his tone became a little extreme.

“What right do you have to say that? If I say she’s worth it, then she’s worth it. Do you know how important she is to me? Do you know how painful it is to lose her? You don’t know anything! For her, I can give up anything and do anything for her. I want to buy a necklace for her. Why don’t you sell it to me?”

He lost control of his emotions and shouted to vent the anger in his heart, causing the other customers and staff in the store to turn to look.

“Sir, please calm down…”

“You want me to calm down? How can I calm down? My girlfriend is ignoring me.”

Qin Xuming continued to hoot and act like a drunkard.

Seeing him like this, Qiao Ruoxi did not dare to say anything more. She was afraid that if she said one more word wrongly, he would continue to yell.

Bao Juhua came over and asked, “Hello, I’m the manager here. What’s wrong? You can tell me if you have any issues.”

Qiao Ruoxi was about to explain when Qin Xuming spoke first.

“You’re the manager here, right? You be the judge. My girlfriend broke up with me, and I wanted to buy her a necklace to beg for her forgiveness. But not only did this lady refuse to sell it to me, she even said that my girlfriend is not good and not worth my effort. Is this how you speak?”

“I’m sorry. Our staff was wrong. Please don’t be angry.”

Bao Juhua smiled apologetically and turned around. She sulked as she scolded, “Ruoxi, how can you talk to a customer like this? Look at your attitude! Don’t you know that customer is king? Hurry up and apologize to this gentleman. If you offend this customer today, don’t come tomorrow.”

Qin Xuming must’ve had a lot to drink.

Seeing Bao Juhua shouting at Qiao Ruoxi, his heart ached. He pushed Bao Juhua away and scolded her.

“What are you shouting for? So what if she’s the store manager? Does she have the right to shout in front of God? She’s a shop assistant, not your slave. What right do you have to teach her a lesson? I can file a lawsuit against you for abusing your power in the name of the union.”

“I…”

Bao Juhua pointed at her own nose in confusion. She was trying to mediate. Why was this customer yelling at her instead?
