"Welcome to Timmy's Jewelry Shop, esteemed customer," the beautiful attendant, Linda, greeted Yuan with a warm smile as he entered the small jewelry shop, with Ava and Julie by his side.
'Wow! What a handsome young man. I've never seen someone as handsome as this young man before,' Linda thought, stunned by Yuan's striking appearance. However, her excitement quickly dissipated as she noticed the two beautiful women accompanying him.
'Sigh! He is extremely handsome, but... it's too bad that he already has two girlfriends. I got my hopes up for nothing,' Linda sighed inwardly.
After recovering from her initial shock, Linda introduced herself, saying, "Esteemed customers, I'm Linda, the attendant of Timmy's Jewelry Shop. Feel free to look at whatever you like; we have numerous kinds of jewelry in our shop."
Yuan, Ava, and Julie nodded in acknowledgment and began perusing the jewelry displayed in the glass cases. Indeed, as Linda had mentioned, there was a wide variety of jewelry available.
As Ava and Julie gazed at the beautiful pieces, their eyes sparkled with excitement, and they eagerly sifted through the jewelry in hopes of finding the perfect pieces for themselves.
Seeing their enthusiasm, Yuan couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly, shaking his head.
'Sigh! Girls are always the same, no matter where you are. They're drawn to jewelry and similar things. Whether it's Earth or another world like this one, they still love jewelry,' Yuan thought to himself.
Back on Earth, Yuan had never dated due to financial constraints. Many girls had materialistic expectations, desiring expensive gifts on various occasions. As an orphan and part-time worker barely making ends meet, he had chosen to abstain from dating.
After a few minutes of searching through the various jewelry pieces, Ava's eyes fell upon a simple yet beautiful light blue pendant that immediately captured her attention. She held it in her hand, a soft smile gracing her lips.
"So beautiful," Ava whispered, admiring the pendant in her hand. She hoped it wasn't too expensive because she really wanted it.
Meanwhile, Julie had her eyes on a pair of earrings made of pure silver, adorned with tiny gems arranged in an elegant pattern. She envisioned how they would enhance her appearance and softly giggled.
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm "These earrings are so beautiful; they'll definitely look great on me. I hope Yuan likes them too. Hehehe!" Julie murmured in a hushed tone.
Having found the jewelry they desired, Ava and Julie returned to Yuan, sporting charming smiles on their faces.
'Have they made their selections?' Yuan wondered.
"Did you two find what you want to buy?" Yuan inquired, though he had noticed their satisfied expressions.
They bashfully nodded in response and displayed the jewelry they had chosen. Ava held a simple yet beautiful pendant, while Julie had selected a pair of exquisite earrings.
'The pendant and the earrings both look beautiful and perfectly match their personalities,' Yuan thought with a smile.
"They are beautiful; they will suit you both quite well," Yuan remarked, genuinely admiring the jewelry they had selected.
After selecting the jewelry they desired, Ava and Julie placed their chosen pieces on the counter table, and Yuan addressed Linda, the attendant. "Miss Linda, we would like to purchase these two pieces of jewelry."
Linda examined the jewelry Ava and Julie had chosen and nodded with a gentle smile. "Very well."
She then picked up Ava's pendant and began to describe it. "This pendant is said to bring good luck to those who wear it. The crystal on the pendant is polished from a rare gemstone called Aqua Fluorite, as you can see, it has a light translucent blue hue."
Ava, somewhat concerned about the price, asked, "What about the price of this pendant?"
Linda replied with a smile, "The price of this pendant is 300 gold coins."
Ava was taken aback by the expense. "So expensive," she muttered to herself.
Yuan turned his attention to the pair of earrings chosen by Julie. "What about the earrings?"
Linda explained, "This pair of earrings is made of pure, high-quality silver with a very beautiful design. There are also a total of 32 tiny pieces of rare gems embedded in the earrings, with 16 pieces of rare gemstones on each earring. The price for this pair of earrings is 340 gold coins."
Julie was similarly surprised by the cost. "340 gold coins... That's expensive," she commented in a hushed voice.
Yuan thought for a moment and then negotiated with Linda, "Miss Linda, how about 500 gold coins for both items? It's a fair price in my opinion. What do you think?"
Linda shook her head gently and replied, "Sir, I'm sorry, but I can't accept less than 600 coins for these two items. That is my final offer."
Unexpectedly, a pouch filled with gold coins appeared in Yuan's hand seemingly out of thin air. This left Linda astonished and perplexed. She thought, 'As a peak third-circle mage myself, I didn't even notice any mana fluctuations when he took that pouch from thin air. Who is this handsome young man, and what kind of magic item does he possess?'
This display of magic astounded Linda. However, Ava and Julie were also surprised by the sudden appearance of the money pouch in Yuan's hand, though not to the same degree as Linda.
Ava pondered the matter briefly but concluded, 'I wonder what other secrets he's hiding from us, but since we're his future wives, I'm sure he will tell us everything when the right time comes. There's no need to rush to learn his secrets.'
Yuan took out 600 gold coins from the pouch and placed them on the counter, saying to Linda, "Here's 600 gold coins; you can count it yourself." He then stored the pouch inside his system storage, causing Linda to frown slightly.
Ava and Julie were left wondering where Yuan had acquired so many gold coins. After Linda verified the gold coins and put them away, she thanked them, saying, "Thank you for your patronage, esteemed customers."
With a nod, Yuan turned to Ava and Julie and smiled, saying, "Let me help you put them on."
This offer caused Ava and Julie's faces to blush, and Julie hesitantly responded, "Um, if you don't mind, please help us."
Yuan first picked up the pendant and delicately fastened it around Ava's lovely neck, gazing at her momentarily. "You look very beautiful, Ava," he sincerely complimented, causing Ava to blush even more.
"Thank you," she bashfully replied.
Yuan then turned to Julie and the pair of earrings. "It's your turn now, Julie. Let me put these on you."
Julie, looking forward to it, replied happily, "I'm ready." She allowed Yuan to place the earrings on her ears, although it proved to be more challenging for him due to his lack of experience with earrings. After some effort, he succeeded without causing Julie any discomfort.
"You look very beautiful with these earrings, Julie," Yuan commented. The earrings seemed to enhance Julie's charm even further, and her face flushed with embarrassment upon hearing his words.
Meanwhile, Linda observed Ava and Julie with a hint of jealousy and thought inwardly, 'How lucky for both of them to have such a generous and caring boyfriend. I wish I also had such a handsome boyfriend.'
Yuan then suggested, "Since we're done here, let's go and have a look around the market."
Ava and Julie exchanged glances, and Ava replied, "Um, let's go; we've spent too much time here."
Exiting the jewelry shop, Yuan, Ava, and Julie ventured into the bustling streets of the village.
The afternoon sun bathed the streets, revealing a multitude of street vendors with their stalls offering an array of street food. People milled about, sampling different delicacies, each dish carrying its unique flavor and appeal.
The air was laden with the mouthwatering aroma of these diverse cuisines, tempting even those who hadn't planned to eat.
As the trio strolled hand in hand through this culinary paradise, the tantalizing scents seeped into their nostrils, making their mouths water.
Yuan couldn't contain his excitement and suggested, "It smells so good; let's try some, shall we?"
Ava and Julie exchanged a quick glance, their eyes filled with anticipation. Julie enthusiastically agreed, "Definitely."
Ava, though slightly bashful, admitted, "I've tried some of the street foods here; they're absolutely delicious."
Their shared culinary adventure led them to a street vendor offering succulent roasted pork belly with garlic sauce. Its tantalizing aroma filled the air, drawing them in. They ordered three servings, opting for the smallest portions so they could sample more of the street vendors' offerings.
After savoring the delicious roasted pork belly, they continued their gastronomic journey, exploring various other street vendors and trying different cuisines.
To their delight, every dish they tasted was a culinary delight, leaving them thoroughly satisfied.
After enjoying several delectable dishes, Ava and Julie exchanged a knowing look, and Ava suggested visiting a nearby park. She blushed slightly as she explained, "Yuan, how about we visit the park? It's a small one, but Big Sis Rose created it. It's a serene and beautiful place."
Julie, eager for a quieter moment with him, added, "It's an ideal spot to relax in a tranquil environment. So, what do you say?"
Yuan chuckled, understanding their desire for some peace and quiet. He readily agreed, "Definitely."
The small local park would provide them with a peaceful setting to better understand each other, the main objective of their date.
