Jiang Xiu, who had been holding the bracelet a moment ago and seemed to have taken a real liking to it, hesitated as she placed it back in the box.
Gao Tian, noticing her reluctance, quickly spoke up. "That's just from some random stall in the mall," he said casually. "Probably a knockoff brand, but the quality is decent, so I bought it anyway." His eyes flickered toward Fu Xifeng, narrowing slightly.
This woman better not blow his cover and claim the bracelet was really from Luxe Charm Jewelry.
Fu Xifeng caught the unspoken message in Gao Tian's glance and saw Jiang Xiu putting the bracelet back. Realizing why Gao Tian had downplayed its origin, she sighed inwardly.
Fine.
Turning toward Jiang Xiu, Fu Xifeng put on an expression of mild realization, as though she had just figured it out. "Oh, no wonder it looked a bit different! So, it's just a knockoff. Still, it's pretty cute and looks well-made."
This Gao Tian owes her!
