I am not just a tycoon

Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Two?



Zhou Wanting, with her arms crossed, commanded, "This sister, although I don't know you, I also graduated from the International campus, and I know you're a student there, so I kindly advise you to keep a distance from this kind of person, and not get deceived."

Fang Minhui was slightly startled, somewhat slow to react.

She didn't understand why Zhou Wanting, as a senior, still cared about these matters even after breaking up with Shen Yuan.

Moreover, why had Zhou Wanting, after breaking up with Shen Yuan, chosen such a greasy middle-aged man?

Shen Yuan outclassed him in both looks and physique alright...

More importantly, Shen Yuan hadn't deceived her; he had just treated her to Japanese cuisine and was only browsing Prada to pick a gift for his sister.

"What's it to you anyway? And what do you mean by deceive? Who have I deceived?"

Shen Yuan also lost his temper, clearly since they had broken up, they should have moved on. Why was she still meddling so much after the breakup!

"Shen Yuan, you shouldn't speak to Wanting like that."

Hou Jun stepped forward, righteously proclaiming, "She was also thinking of your best interests. We men should be gentlemen, especially since Wanting is your ex-girlfriend."

"We all know about your family's situation; there's no need to pretend to be rich in a luxury store, and no one is laughing at you. Right, Wanting?"

While speaking, Hou Jun casually turned slightly, making sure the Audi car keys hanging at his waist were more conspicuous.

His pride, the Audi A7, cost nearly 700,000 on the road; though financed, it was enough to surpass over 99% of the Huaxia people.

If a guy like Shen Yuan without a car could charm ladies, then what havoc could he, a real "rich man," potentially wreak?

Fang Minhui, clearly more attractive than Zhou Wanting beside her, he wouldn't mind keeping another "canary."

If necessary, he even could kick Zhou Wanting to the curb.

Shen Yuan's mouth twitched, these two really disgusted him today, a truly perfect match indeed!

"Ding!"

[A perfect life should not be looked down upon by others]

[Time-limited task: Spend on a person of the opposite sex with a Feel-good Index over 60, and cause the increase of negative perception from others]

[Task Reward: For every 5-point increase in negative perception from others, the amount spent on the person of opposite sex will be doubled and returned to the host]

[Note: This task can be stacked with the cashback for spending on the opposite sex]

The technological panel reappeared before Shen Yuan's eyes.

Moved by the System's suggestion, if he could make Hou Jun and Zhou Wanting increase their negative perception towards him by spending on Fang Minhui, combined with the cashback for spending on a woman, he could gain a fivefold return!

If he spent 30,000, he could earn 150,000; spending 60,000 could net him 300,000!

System, you're awesome!

Shen Yuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

At this moment, negative values appeared above the heads of Hou Jun and Zhou Wanting.

[Negative perception towards the host: -30]

[Negative perception towards the host: -35]

Initially, Shen Yuan had wanted to leave some dignity for both parties and not lose face in such a public place, which is why he had chosen to leave.

But Hou Jun and Zhou Wanting just had to stir things up.

Now that the System had issued a task, Shen Yuan had even less reason to leave.

"Well then, let's go in and take a look,"

Shen Yuan said to Fang Minhui.

"Just looking and not buying? Don't waste the saleswoman's time then,"

Hou Jun couldn't fathom where Shen Yuan found the courage; he thought, please open your eyes wide, this is Prada!

For a guy who just had a girl pay his cab fare, he shouldn't be stirring up trouble here.

Hou Jun already began picturing the scene where Shen Yuan would be embarrassed soon.

Zhou Wanting also sneered coldly, enjoying the drama, and continued picking handbags at Prada.

She had narrowed down her choices online and was at this physical store mainly to try on and see the effect.

"I'll take this one," Zhou Wanting pointed at the handbag and said.

"Alright, please wait a moment, I'll fetch you a new one from the stockroom," the saleswoman Julia cheerfully responded, turning to head into the back room.

At stores like Prada with a one-on-one service system, Julia was initially serving Shen Yuan, but having just learned of Shen Yuan's family going bankrupt, surely he had no money now, so she promptly continued her service for Ms. Zhou and her "new" companion.

Indeed, reality confirmed her guess!

After a while, Julia brought out a new bag. Zhou Wanting briefly inspected it, then called out, "Jun, I've made my choice; you can pay now!"

Zhou Wanting intentionally raised her voice, afraid that Shen Yuan wouldn't hear her.

"The total is 26,800."

Hou Jun's heart sank as he listened from the side, cursing under his breath about the wasteful woman spending over twenty thousand again!

But he had no choice. In front of Shen Yuan and the beauty, he gritted his teeth and made the payment.

"Swipe the card."

Hou Jun took out his wallet from his pocket, handed over his bank card, and as he entered the PIN, he saw 26,800 displayed on the POS machine, feeling immense heartache.

He silently resolved that no matter what, he couldn't come here again!

Even if Zhou Wanting coaxed him, he couldn't come!

"Jun, you're really sweet."

Zhou Wanting beamed with joy, linking arms with Hou Jun and giving him a peck.

Shen Yuan and Fang Minhui were picking out bags and didn't pay much attention to the activity on the other side. Fang Minhui whispered, "Shen Yuan, how old is your sister? Does she want a shoulder bag or a handbag?"

"Either is fine. Help me choose."

"Okay, I think both styles are actually nice."

Fang Minhui pointed at a beige handbag and a pink shoulder bag, "Both styles are great, and both beige and pink match clothes well. I think your sister would like them."

Although Fang Minhui had never been to a luxury store, she often saw photos of these types of bags on social media, so her aesthetic sense was quite on point.

Shen Yuan's sister was still in high school, not quite suitable for dark colors or complex designs. Simple and versatile bags were more appropriate.

"Do you like it?" asked Shen Yuan with a smile.

"Me?"

Fang Minhui was taken aback, her throat suddenly dry. She had a faint premonition and paused before saying, "Of course, I like them. I think girls generally have similar tastes, and your sister would probably like them too."

"Great, then let's take both of these," Shen Yuan signaled to a sales associate nearby.

"Both?"

The sales associate was surprised; she had thought it was to choose one and not pick both.

Fang Minhui was even more shocked; her suggestion was for Shen Yuan to pick one from the two, not buy both at once.

Though she had a premonition that Shen Yuan might gift her one, the actual occurrence left her somewhat incredulous.

After all, each bag was over twenty thousand!

Thinking about this, Fang Minhui felt nervous. If Shen Yuan really intended to give her one of them, should she accept it or not?

"Yes, two," said Shen Yuan affirmatively.

"Okay, okay."

The sales associate, Alisa, took a deep breath. Her years of professional experience quickly calmed her down: "I'll go to the warehouse and get two new ones for you."

Actually, it was her first time serving Mr. Shen; it was usually Julia who attended to him. This time, Ms. Zhou had arrived first and Julia was too busy, hence Alisa was assigned to serve Mr. Shen.

However, during the earlier gossip, Alisa heard that Mr. Shen's family was reportedly bankrupt, and she thought this time it would be a futile effort.

She had dealt with many customers who just browsed without buying, all talk and no action, really a waste of time!

Initially, she didn't have high expectations, but unexpectedly, Mr. Shen immediately chose two bags!

Alisa secretly rejoiced, wondering if Julia would regret not handling this customer herself.

By now, Zhou Wanting had already received her Prada packaged by the sales associate. Contentedly holding Hou Jun's arm, she glanced in Shen Yuan's direction, ready to leave with a victor's posture.

See, my Hou Jun says buy and buys! And you, all talk no action!

Hou Jun too stood confidently, chest puffed out, as he approached Shen Yuan, "All right, you've looked enough, after all, the sales associate has sales targets every day, and hanging out with you guys is delaying her work."

"What's it to you?" retorted Shen Yuan.

Hou Jun choked on the retort, cursing inwardly about the lack of manners!

"Shen Yuan, I don't know why you're still being stubborn."

Zhou Wanting proudly raised her handbag, "Mainly, I wanted to remind this junior to keep her eyes open when choosing a partner, not to judge merely by looks."

"Mr. Shen, here are the two new bags. Please check them to see if there are any issues,"

Alisa smiled brightly, reveling in the joy of the forthcoming transaction, "If there's no issue, I'll go and process the paperwork for you."

Hou Jun was taken aback, hearing something off, and Zhou Wanting's expression changed as well.

Two???
