Give me your face so I can hit it?
Xu Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, turning his head to look at the man and woman on the sofa next to him, his gaze as sharp as a sword.
Are they talking about me?
He couldn't help but curve his lips into a smile, a hint of disdain and even self-mockery in it.
He had originally thought that coming to a luxury brand store would lead to the cliché of sales associates looking down on people.
However, although Richard Mille, like other luxury brands, had some unwritten rules, their attitude towards customers was impeccable.
This led Xu Ning to believe that the scenarios in novels and TV shows were all far-fetched fabrications.
But he never expected that just as he was about to leave, something vulgar would actually happen.
And it wasn't the sales associates who were looking down on people, but other customers in the store.
I didn't provoke you, did I?
Xu Ning chuckled dismissively, as if to confirm their 'scamming for food and drink' remark, and took a sip of Evian mineral water.
Hearing another sneer from nearby, Xu Ning's expression remained calm.
The woman speaking was in her twenties, with a good figure and very fashionable clothes, but her influencer-like face clearly showed signs of having been altered.
The man beside her was in his early forties, seemingly with some wealth, but his aura was completely incomparable to that of a true tycoon.
True tycoons are often low-key; only those who have just risen above the middle class to become wealthy will carry arrogance on their faces all day long.
A middle-aged man and his mistress?
How interesting!
"Then I'd like to know, since you're not 'scamming for food and drink,' which watch did you choose?"
Xu Ning asked with a smile, as if chatting with a friend, without even a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
The influencer-faced woman deliberately made a high-pitched, coquettish laugh, a sound that made Xu Ning very uncomfortable, giving him goosebumps.
"RM011, white gold with diamonds!"
"Official price 1.49 million, we paid an extra 200,000!"
"How about it, jealous?"
The woman picked up the watch and gestured with it towards Xu Ning, her face filled with mockery and sarcasm.
Xu Ning smiled calmly, finding it hard to suppress the curve of his lips.
After all that talk, he had thought this couple had bought one of the several ten-million-level classic models.
He didn't expect it to still be a million-level basic model.
Perhaps 1.7 million could buy a mid-range model in other luxury watch brands, but at Richard Mille, it was truly just an entry-level piece.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Can you even afford it?!"
Seeing Xu Ning's smile, which seemed to mock them for only being able to afford a basic model, the woman felt offended and became somewhat hysterical, shouting at Xu Ning.
The middle-aged man next to her pulled her down to sit, but then also directed his criticism at Xu Ning.
"Little brother, although her tone wasn't good, it seems she wasn't wrong either."
"Good advice is often hard to hear!"
"At your age, you should be striving, not pretending to be a rich young master in a luxury brand store."
"People shouldn't be vain; they should be more down-to-earth."
"Don't you agree?"
Although his words were more pleasant than the woman's, they were still condescending, full of a 'big shot' vibe and a sense of superiority, completely looking down on Xu Ning.
Xu Ning smiled, a very bright smile.
Since you've put your faces in front of me, if I don't give them a few slaps, wouldn't I be letting down all your antics?
With that thought, Xu Ning's mind immediately entered the system, and he directly purchased the RM56-01 Sapphire Crystal model.
A dazzling RM56 quietly floated in the system space, ready to be materialized into reality at any time.
However, the cash in his card did not decrease accordingly, because Xu Ning had chosen the in-store real transaction method within the system.
Just then, Manager Hao, the flagship store manager, quickly walked out of the office inside, and at the same time, several capable individuals carrying briefcases also entered from outside the store.
"Manager Hao, this is the headquarters' allocation for this batch; please check it as soon as possible!" The newcomer said directly to the store manager.
Manager Hao immediately called over several sales associates and the store's watch technician to inspect this batch of watches.
After all, even the most entry-level Richard Mille is a million-level item, so it's impossible to be too careful.
This kind of display made several groups of customers look over curiously.
Many Richard Mille models are not in stock and require pre-order, and the headquarters will uniformly allocate and deliver them. Clearly, they had encountered this rare delivery.
Manager Hao opened several briefcases and then carefully verified each watch, being extremely meticulous.
But just then, Manager Hao suddenly let out an exclamation, his tone filled with disbelief.
"RM56?"
"Sapphire model?"
"How is this possible?"
"Isn't this model limited to 6 pieces worldwide? How could it be allocated to our store?"
"And our store didn't even pre-order it!"
His exclamation also attracted the attention of everyone in the store.
Those who can afford Richard Mille will inevitably have some understanding of its top-tier series, and among them, the RM56 is one of the best, highly sought after.
Upon hearing that an RM56 Sapphire model had arrived at the store, their level of surprise was almost on par with Manager Hao's.
Unable to resist their shock and curiosity, everyone gathered around.
They certainly didn't want to miss the opportunity to see a watch limited to 6 pieces worldwide in person.
The couple from earlier were also extremely amazed at this moment, feeling as if just being able to glimpse the RM56 was an honor, making their trip worthwhile.
"It's so beautiful!"
"The sapphire crystal is even more brilliant than the Queen of England's crown."
"I truly wonder who will be fortunate enough to own such a top-tier watch!"
"Darling, if only you could buy it!"
The influencer-faced woman's eyes were practically melting as she looked at the RM56.
The middle-aged man almost choked when he heard the woman's words, coughing several times before recovering.
Me buy it?
You're probably joking, aren't you?
"Stop messing around!"
"The RM56 is almost being resold for 30 million, and no one would even sell it!"
"This kind of top-tier limited edition watch isn't something you can buy just with money!"
In fact, the middle-aged man also found it strange and difficult to understand why the Richard Mille headquarters had suddenly delivered an RM56 to this flagship store.
At this moment, Manager Hao was already on the phone with headquarters, confirming the status and information of this RM56.
After hanging up, the shock in his heart was beyond words.
It turned out that this watch was ordered by a Mr. Xu from the Imperial Capital directly from Richard Mille headquarters through a special channel.
That's why Richard Mille would deliver it to the Yintai Center flagship store, where the transaction would then take place.
The problem was that with this method of purchasing a watch, there was no 'markup' involved.
How much influence did he have to be able to order directly from headquarters?
And it was even a limited edition series like the RM56!
It was truly outrageous!
In all his years in the industry, this was the first time he had encountered such a thing!
Since that's the case, he should quickly call Mr. Xu to come to the store to pick up the watch!
