The three men exchanged glances after hearing Xu Ke's words.
"Calling the manager will definitely get us punished. We can't call the manager."
"Exactly, if the manager finds out what we've done, we can kiss this job goodbye. Anyway, there are only three of them, and two are women. No matter what, we have to make them pay up. Once they bring the money, we'll sweep up the shards and say the items were sold. Promotion and a raise are inevitable then." As he spoke, the leftmost clerk's eyes glowed with greed, determined to fleece these three people.
The three quietly communicated their intentions. Upon realizing their goals were aligned, they all targeted Xu Ke and his group.
"I know why you want to call our manager. I'm telling you, it's impossible. Today, if you don't pay, you won't walk out of here. Let's see who has more time to waste," boasted the man in the middle, his face brimming with petty arrogance.
