Yun Duo is the type of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force, especially when dealing with strangers. This department store manager was a stranger, and once he softened his tone, Yun Duo felt embarrassed to continue being aggressive.
Therefore, as soon as the manager finished speaking, Yun Duo felt a little embarrassed and awkwardly said, "Um... don't say that. It's the old lady who's lucky, and Leopard is so filial. I just happened to be there..."
He added, “My wallet is double-layered. The outside is coarse cloth with small blue and white floral patterns, and the inside is white cotton cloth. It has a snap closure on the outside and a drawstring closure on the inside. Inside, there are twelve dollars and eighty cents.”
Hearing Yun Duo's words, the department store manager nodded and looked at her, saying, "Blue and white floral print coarse cloth, snap buttons, drawstring, twelve yuan and eighty cents... Okay, I've got it. Little Yun Duo, would you like to come to my office for a while? I'll take her downstairs and search her. If I find it, I'll bring the wallet to you. If I don't, I'll find out who her accomplice is. Don't worry, I'll definitely find the wallet for you." He paused slightly, then added, "Even if I don't find the wallet, I'll definitely make them return the money."
"Thank you." Yun Duo thanked the manager, then added, "However, if the money came from her or her accomplices, then I'll accept it. If not, don't even think about giving me any extra money. I can't let you suffer a loss."
The manager smiled and said, "Don't worry, Little Cloud, we'll eat anything, we just won't suffer a loss. These guys dare to come to our territory to steal while we're busy, they should be prepared to pay back their principal and interest if they get caught."
Of course, it's not as simple as just returning the principal with interest. But... I won't go into more details, lest I scare the young woman.
Yun Duo thanked the person and followed them to the manager's office to wait. Department stores held no appeal for her in this era, and she was too lazy to shop there. Sitting in the manager's office waiting for the results was much better than standing there like an idiot in the store.
But... I don't know when that will be.
It was her carelessness, really.
How could she have lost her wallet... She should have been more careful.
"I'm sorry, Master, it was my oversight..."
Just as Yunduo was blaming herself, Xiao Jiu's sullen voice rang in her ears.
Yun Duo didn't think it was Xiao Jiu's fault at all, and immediately thought to herself, "Silly, I was the one who carried the wallet. I didn't keep it safe myself. What does it have to do with you?"
As she spoke, she subconsciously looked for Xiao Jiu.
However, glancing at Gu Ying out of the corner of her eye, she realized that Xiao Jiu wouldn't come over, just like a mouse seeing a cat when she saw Gu Ying.
After she told Xiao Jiu that she didn't blame her, Xiao Jiu was still blaming herself. After thinking for a moment, Yun Duo simply said, "Xiao Jiu, why don't you secretly follow them and see what the results of their body search are, and then see if they've found out anything."
This way, she won't have to wait anxiously.
It was almost noon, so Gu Ying drove her to the county town. She had to be given lunch.
Although... Gu Ying might not be interested in the things she can afford.
However, she needs to have the right attitude.
After all, Gu Ying also knew that she had not accepted the identity that came from her original family.
