Although Lu Qingqing and Song Xiuluan both count as public figures, there are still plenty of people who don't recognize them.
The customer asking about the earrings was one such person.
Zhao Lin turned around to face her and said with a smile, "Sorry, they've already been sold to her."
The customer asked, "Isn't she one of your staff?"
Zhao Lin shook her head, "Of course not. I can't afford an employee like her. She's just sitting here to rest."
"Do you not have another pair of the same earrings? I really like them."
"There's no second pair. When I bought the material, there were only two matching cabochons; they're top-grade." If it weren't for the upcoming jewelry exhibition, she would've kept them for herself. She hadn't even posted them on her social media or showcased them in the store.
The customer was utterly disappointed, glancing at Lu Qingqing again and again.
Lu Qingqing pretended not to notice. She really liked them too.
