Chapter 124: Chapter 96: Showing Her Bestie Her Boyfriend’s Abs
Qu Man: "I really didn’t expect him to be so generous with you. It proves you picked the right guy."
Zong Rui: "Of course! My taste is impeccable. I hope you find a man who understands you soon, too."
Qu Man: "This girl isn’t interested in romance. I’m just focusing on my career."
Zong Rui: "Well, I gotta go. He’s insisting on taking me clothes shopping. I’ll video call you later, bye-bye~"
Qu Man didn’t even have to think to know that Zong Rui would end up with a pile of luxury goods from big brands she could never afford on her own.
But she wasn’t particularly envious.
If she wanted that kind of life, countless men would be tripping over themselves to give it to her.
As for the price? All her years of perseverance would be for nothing.
She would only respect and support her best friend’s choice.
But she would also stick to her own choices until the very end.
...
Meanwhile, Qi Sheng took Zong Rui for a drive.
Qi Sheng sat in the passenger seat, watching Zong Rui grip the steering wheel, a mix of excitement and nervousness on her face.
She drove at a turtle’s pace on the wide, eight-lane road.
He didn’t rush her, however, instead offering patient encouragement.
It was a good thing she was driving the G-Wagon.
Otherwise, the drivers honking behind her would have chased her down ten blocks, cursing her out.
Although she had a driver’s license, Zong Rui had barely ever been behind the wheel.
The last time she’d driven was three years ago.
Thankfully, the G-Wagon had excellent visibility, which made driving it much easier for her.
With just a light tap on the gas, she could feel its abundant power.
While it couldn’t compare to Qi Sheng’s RS6 or Ferrari 488, it was more than enough for daily driving.
With a 4.0T V8 engine and a max of 421 horsepower, overtaking other cars was an absolute breeze.
Even in a place like Taikoo Li, which was teeming with luxury cars, the red Mercedes G500 drew plenty of onlookers who stopped to stare and take pictures.
Especially with such a beautiful young woman in the driver’s seat.
It even drew the frequent attention of street style photographers, who snapped picture after picture.
After parking the car nearby, Qi Sheng got out, his arm around Zong Rui.
At 185cm and 175cm, they were a naturally well-matched pair.
A handsome man and a beautiful woman were always a more palatable combination than a beautiful woman and a sugar daddy.
As for those women who sought out sugar daddies, Zong Rui could understand them, but she could never be one of them.
If her boyfriend wasn’t handsome, even kissing him would be torture.
And when she thought about how her future children would likely inherit his looks, the mere thought sent a shiver down her spine.
’Thank goodness I found a tall, rich, and handsome boyfriend.’
’The genetic quality of our future babies is definitely going to be top-notch.’
...
Qi Sheng was already very familiar with Taikoo Li.
The last time he’d come to Chanel, Qi Sheng had spent 500,000 in one go.
It had left a deep impression on every sales associate in the entire store. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
This time, he had brought another beautiful woman with him—an absolute stunner, no less.
Recognizing Qi Sheng as a big spender, the sales staff eagerly swarmed around him.
The sales associate who had helped Qi Sheng last time happened to be off today.
Zong Rui watched the group of normally haughty sales staff, who were now looking at her with meek deference, eagerly awaiting her selections.
For the first time, Zong Rui truly felt the magic of money.
It really could corrupt a person’s heart with ease.
"Buy whatever you want. I’ll give you a 500,000 budget. If you don’t like Chanel, we’ll go to another store. Just not LV."
Qi Sheng was avoiding LV because he didn’t want to make things difficult for Tan Hua.
If he was recognized there, how would Tan Hua explain it?
"I know, I know. You can go wait over there."
Zong Rui was already used to Qi Sheng taking charge.
Besides, wasn’t this the life she had always dreamed of?
’Sometimes, there’s nothing wrong with being honest about what you want.’ fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
’Wearing a mask every day... isn’t it exhausting?’
Zong Rui picked the female sales associate she found most pleasant and asked her to show her the women’s apparel section.
But she didn’t find any styles she liked, and besides, the prices were too high.
Instead of spending over a hundred thousand on one outfit here, she’d rather go to an affordable luxury brand and buy a dozen or more outfits.
She could wear a new one every day and not get bored for half a month.
However, Zong Rui had always been particularly fond of their handbags.
She had bought two in the past, but she only ever used them when she was out shopping or having dinner with friends.
"Honey, look. Which of these two bags looks better on me?"
Zong Rui remembered the promise she’d excitedly made when she received his gift. She had to call him "honey" when they were out, and the thought made her blush.
"Hm... they both look great. We’ll take both."
Qi Sheng saw that Zong Rui was having trouble choosing between the two bags, so he simply made the decision for her.
"Right away, sir."
The sales associate helping Zong Rui was thrilled and immediately signaled to a colleague to get new ones from the stockroom.
’As expected of a whale who drops 500,000. He’s so extravagant!’
"But they’re so expensive."
Zong Rui had only intended to pick one.
She hadn’t expected Qi Sheng to buy both of them right away.
As for what Qi Sheng had said about a 500,000 spending limit, she had just thought he was joking.
How could she really fleece her own man like that?
She was already more than content with just getting a Chanel bag.
Besides, with her figure, a lot of clothes didn’t suit her anyway.
She only dared to come shopping like this because Qi Sheng was with her.
Otherwise, she did her shopping online and would only go to physical stores to try things on.
Qi Sheng could tell that Zong Rui didn’t want to keep shopping at Chanel.
Without saying a word, he went and paid with his card.
A man swiping his credit card is, naturally, at his most handsome.
Even Zong Rui couldn’t help but happily plant a kiss on Qi Sheng’s cheek.
Whether he bought the bags or not wasn’t important.
It was the feeling of being spoiled by her boyfriend that made her the happiest.
Qi Sheng and Zong Rui continued their shopping spree in Taikoo Li, visiting one luxury store after another.
Whenever they came across a brand Zong Rui liked, they would go in and spend a few tens of thousands.
As for the shopping bags, Gu Feng, who was trailing behind them, carried them all.
An arm around a smoking hot, top-tier beauty, with a bodyguard in a black suit following behind—he was really starting to look the part of a wealthy young heir.
Qi Sheng saw the envious gazes of his fellow men and could only give them a sympathetic shrug.
’Who can they blame? It’s all because I got lucky and was chosen by the damn author.’
