After hanging up the phone, Lin Jie was afraid that Lin Miao or An Kemeng might lose their temper and argue with the shopkeeper, so he hurried toward the hotel.
The resort's shopping mall is located on the first to third floors of the hotel, with many shops selling souvenirs and specialties.
"Mr. Lin, you seem to be in a hurry. Is there an emergency?"
Just as he entered the first floor lobby of the hotel, Lin Jie was stopped by a security guard.
This was a young man with dark skin and a stout build, with a buzz cut. Lin Jie recognized him as one of the five security guards who were previously with Bai Qili.
Lin Jie thought he might be able to help, so he said, "My two sisters found a large pearl from an oyster in a pearl jewelry store. The shopkeeper said they would process it into jewelry and only charge the cost and processing fee."
"I'm worried this is a scam, and my two sisters might get upset and argue with the shopkeeper!"
