Chapter 964: Chapter 391: Flamboyant & Rebellious_3
Damn, this sucks...
In the end, I had to force a bitter smile and go pay the bill. Looking at it, my heart almost broke.
The ugly-cute coat was the most expensive, but the material wasn’t top-notch, costing only 98,000 bucks.
The vest was over a thousand, not even worth a special mention.
The long dress was an off-season ready-to-wear, just under 14,000.
The little boots were hers, but Rou Si matched them with a bag, just over 40,000.
Final total: 160,000 exactly.
Well, she tried on several haute couture pieces before that went over a million, yet she didn’t even let Han Lie spend 200,000.
480,000 experience summed up in the panel, not even a ripple, drowned in the original 10-digit experience, pretty dismal.
Brother Lie waved his hand indifferently, packed all the clothes, pants, shoes he tried on and felt were okay.
Spent over 2 million, got 2 million experience in return.
Spending money on yourself is the biggest loss, who do you complain to?
Yet, putting aside the frustration, if I’m being honest, Han Lie still appreciates this kind of woman who knows her limits.
Not to mention anything else, just speaking of the 300 million loan Old Huang gave out, Tang Xintian ran up and down to help deal with it, not making Han Lie worry at all, just for this alone, taking a 500,000 commission does not feel guilty.
Restraint, understanding principles, low-key, beautiful...
Other than being too assertive and uncontrollable, she’s quite a nice woman.
What a shame, what a shame...
"Let’s go, get our hair done."
Han Lie lazily waved his hand, not planning to go to Givenchy to look at off-season items anymore.
Looking only made him annoyed, spending money didn’t bring joy.
"Let’s go!"
Tang Xintian took the initiative to link arms with Han Lie, letting her right-side coat slip down, revealing a white shimmering shoulder, adding to her unrestrained allure.
All the way downstairs, the customers who saw them were stunned.
A 200% head-turn rate, each person turned at least twice.
A super handsome gentleman rogue paired with a cool rebellious gal, really striking a strong impression.
Han Lie made the best of it and pushed down his glasses, asking her, "Do you think we can turn your fancy gathering upside down?"
"We have to shake it up!"
Tang Xintian pumped her fist, started eagerly telling Han Lie the backstory of the gathering.
"Actually, if you get more familiar with the connections in the establishment, you’ll definitely be invited next time.
Initially, this was organized by those active folks in the overseas student circles of the Magic Capital, mainly those second generations whose parents are within the system.
Because we might not all be in the same country, spread across the UK, US, France, Germany, and even in America, with East and West coasts plus the Central, gathering can be really troublesome.
So everyone just agreed to reunite at home, usually during spring or summer vacation.
Use someone’s villa and throw a free-for-all party.
Later on, because the core group of the party was so influential, many people wanted to squeeze in, you get it?
Anyway, the small session started getting bigger, and the rich second generation began to be accepted, making it increasingly lively.
And later on, some meddling aunties thought it was a good matchmaking opportunity, started pushing in their over-aged and non-studying abroad sons and daughters, leading to the current situation—
The core is still those studying abroad, mainly from the Yangtze River Delta, but there are also alumni from the north and south and countless people coming with various intents.
The age range is from 20 to 35, with several circles, networking is the main theme, matchmaking is secondary.
Those on a serious mission work hard to find investment and cooperation opportunities.
Those with no missions guaranteed head to nightclubs or bars in the second half, or take someone’s yacht out to sea.
Overall, it’s quite a free-spirited party, and the so-called high-end is mainly about the difficulty of attending, not the quality of participants, it’s only been a few years, every year there’s bound to be a couple of arguments..."
The more Han Lie listened, the more familiar it sounded.
After a moment of reflection, he suddenly asked, "Was the initial organizer the Overseas Students Association in the Magic Capital?"
"Oh?" Tang Xintian looked up surprised, "You know about it?"
"Heard someone mention it once," Han Lie replied vaguely.
Actually, it was during the pandemic that he heard someone talk about that once-fully-stopped high-end gathering.
It was during a bragging session at a drinking game, where a guy who attended described the gathering as a super exciting in-party, making the youngsters drool with envy.
Oh dear, Tang Xintian, you’re really taking me to such a gathering!
How outrageous!
The initially indifferent Dog Lie was suddenly filled with anticipation.
