23 Buying rings at Fengs - Part 1

After informing Hou Yi and Anna Jones of their arrival at Fengs Jewellers, Assistant Wang stopped the vehicle, and assisted Anna out of the vehicle, with Hou Yi following.

Hou Yi turned to Assistant Wang, and asked "Assistant Wang, could you please call someone from the Criminal Investigation Bureau and ask them to meet us at my apartment, in say 90 minutes.Explain to them that we are shopping, but we will be there as soon as we can.Once you know who will be there please call the apartment staff and let them know what is happening.Can you also please arrange for a personal shopper to meet us at M Mall\'s VIP area, so we can purchase a few items at the moment.Explain that we will have about 20-30 Minutes, and are looking for one semi-formal dress, a couple of casual dresses, a couple of pairs of casual pants and tops to match, and the usual miscellaneous items.Confirm that it is for my wife but ensure that they know that nothing is to be said."

Anna heard what Hou Yi said, and said "But I have my own clothes"

Hou Yi walked over and said to Anna "I know you do, but I know my family tonight will be dressed such that the semi-formal dress is needed, and I want to help supplement the items you have at the moment.Do not worry, anything else can wait."

"You do not need to spend such money."

"Please let me do this, all I want to do is ensure that you feel comfortable."

Anna, wanted to continue to argue, but looked at Hou Yi, and realised that he was not going to change his mind, and in an exasperated tone indicated "Fine, but do not think that this is the end of this."

With that Hou Yi, realised that he had at least temporarily won the argument, so he turned to Assistant Wang "Thank you for seeing to those tasks.As soon as we are finished, I will call you to let you know we are ready to be picked up."

With that Hou Yi walked and took Anna\'s hand, and partly dragged her, partly escorted her to the door of a Fengs, which was opened for them.As soon they entered in, they were approached by a man who bowed to them "CEO Hou, Madam Hou, I am Manager Yong, and I am in charge of this store.If you would please accompany me, I will escort you to one of our VIP Rooms."

With that, Manager Yong, turned and walked between two counters, and opened a door motioning for Hou Yi and Anna to enter.As they entered the room and sat down on a comfortable pair of blue chairs inside the room, a young woman came in with two glasses of water and sat them down on the small coffee table between the chairs.She bowed and indicated "Please let Manager Yong know if there is anything else that you would like to drink, and I will arrange and bring this to you."

"Nothing for me", was Anna\'s prompt response

"Also nothing for me", followed Hou Yi.With that he reached over and picked up once of the glasses on the table and handed it to Anna.

Manager Yong, turned and started to close the door, and Anna heard someone outside say "Oh my God.I never through that I would see the day that CEO Hou, would be so caring and gentle towards a woman.All reports I have read or heard say that he does not like woman."

Manager Yong, also heard this, and re-opened the door fully that he had been closing, and waked out, and in a raised voice "As I have said to all of you, and if I have to repeat it again people will be fired, particularly since we have another VIP couple to arrive, people will be fired.We do not talk about rumours regarding clients, engage in gossip involving clients, nor disclose to other clients names of other people who shop here."

With that he turned around and re-entered the room.He did not fully close the door, and walked over, bowing again "Apologies CEO Hou, Madam Hou, that behaviour was unacceptable from my staff."He stopped briefly "CEO Hou, Assistant Wang telephoned and indicated that you were coming to select jewellery for your wife.How can we be of assistance?"

Hou Yi, turned briefly to Anna, and gave her a look of reassurance, and re-turned to look at Manager Yong."Manager Yong, firstly we need to select wedding rings for ourselves, plus as my wife is Australian, I am also looking for an engagement ring, to meet traditions in Australia.For the wedding rings, I am after a matching pair for us, and if possible with the engagement ring, it to contain an Australian Diamond.Also I am …"

Before he could continue further both he and Anna heard Yang Lin, angrily demand "Tell Manager Yong, that we want to see him here now."
