Terrified
Everyone heard the store manager when he called headquarters.
Their reactions were similar; they all found it incredible.
After all, to be able to order directly from headquarters, without needing to pay a premium, and have it delivered directly to the store, his influence was considerable.
Of course, anyone who can spend 20 million to buy a watch is undoubtedly a big shot.
To say they weren't envious would definitely be a lie.
To reach this level in one's lifetime, that truly means a life well-lived.
The store manager immediately started calling Mr. Xu.
Just then, Xu Ning's phone rang.
Xu Ning already realized it was the store manager calling, so he raised his phone and gestured to the store manager.
However, Manager Hao didn't notice and was still waiting for the call to connect.
The others frowned as they listened to Xu Ning's phone ringtone.
Xu Ning, unconcerned, took two steps forward, presenting his phone up close to Manager Hao's eyes, and spoke calmly.
“My name is Xu Ning!”
“You should be calling me, right?”
Manager Hao looked at Xu Ning's phone screen, which clearly displayed his own phone number, and was stunned. How could he not understand that this young man in front of him was exactly the Mr. Xu he needed to contact?
He quickly hung up the phone and greeted Mr. Xu with a respectful and eager attitude.
“Hello, Mr. Xu!”
“It’s a pleasure to meet such a talented young man on our first encounter!”
“I've always wondered what kind of person would be able to order a limited edition Richard Mille directly from headquarters.”
“You are far younger and more distinguished than I imagined.”
“Indeed, you are the elite most suited for a Richard Mille!”
Xu Ning's lips curled into a smile; although the flattery was almost sycophantic and not particularly subtle, who wouldn't want to hear kind words?
“Alright, since the watch has arrived, let's complete the transaction as soon as possible!”
Manager Hao immediately nodded in agreement, bowed, and extended his hand, inviting Xu Ning back to the reception area.
At this moment, all the customers in the store stared wide-eyed in astonishment, feeling an incredible shock.
The young man who, aside from being somewhat handsome, was otherwise unremarkable, was actually the big shot who ordered a limited edition Richard Mille watch directly from headquarters?
They truly couldn't tell he was a rich person!
His outfit was ordinary; even if it wasn't from a street stall, it wasn't associated with any major brands.
He wasn't wearing a watch symbolizing his status on his wrist either.
They really thought this young man was, as the man and woman had sarcastically implied, just trying to scam a free meal!
But who could have imagined that he actually bought a top-tier Richard Mille watch!
That was an RM56!
There are only six in the whole world!
Forget about whether you can afford over 20 million, this watch isn't something you can buy just because you have money!
Is the young master really that low-key?
Unlike the other customers' simple astonishment, the man and woman at this moment felt as if they had swallowed a fly, experiencing an unspeakable discomfort and unease!
Even if they were stupid, they knew they had provoked someone they shouldn't have!
They had kicked an iron plate!
The middle-aged man only had a small fortune; with his fixed assets, he barely reached 100 million, and buying even a basic Richard Mille made him feel pain.
And someone who could casually spend 20 million on a Richard Mille, was he someone he could afford to offend?
Not to mention, during this process, Xu Ning had already fully demonstrated his influence!
Imagine, he had to pay a premium to buy an entry-level Richard Mille for 1.5 million.
Yet, this young man didn't even need to pay a premium for an RM56, which is limited to only 6 pieces worldwide, and it was even delivered by headquarters.
Just thinking about their sarcastic and cutting remarks earlier, he wished he could swallow his own tongue!
At this level and age, he knew very well what was most important to survive in this society.
He probably wouldn't even need to lift a finger to deal with him; countless people would come forward to actively take care of him.
His small company would probably be crippled in minutes!
He then turned to look at the woman beside him, his eyes blazing with fury, as if he wanted to kill her!
Damn it!
This damn woman!
He really should tear her wretched mouth apart!
Originally, a woman with an influencer's face and even fake breasts was just for fun.
If you served me well, the key being obedient, then it was only natural to bestow some benefits upon you.
But now you've caused me trouble, and you've provoked someone I absolutely cannot afford to offend!
Why don't you just die!
Thinking about the possibility of bankruptcy or even ending up on the streets, the middle-aged man couldn't help but shiver.
At this moment, the woman's face also turned pale with fright, as if she had been dragged into a small forest by several scavengers.
Because she understood the terror of power even more clearly than the middle-aged man!
The man beside her was not the first man she had been with; when she was first kept, that sugar daddy was truly a big shot.
At that time, a rich man, whom she looked up to, offended the sugar daddy, and in a snap, he was gone!
From that moment on, she truly understood the power of influence.
So when the sugar daddy got tired of her and kicked her out, she didn't even dare to fart, otherwise, she was afraid she wouldn't see the sun the next day.
And now, she had actually provoked such an existence!
Although, apart from this Richard Mille watch, Xu Ning hadn't displayed any other influence.
But was this watch alone not enough?
She was truly scared!
Even if Xu Ning seemed to ignore them completely from beginning to end, could you really guess the thoughts of such a big shot?
Perhaps he only needed to move a little finger to crush you hundreds of times!
They truly had countless ways to make you wish for death but be unable to die!
At this moment, she felt all her strength drain away, almost collapsing to the ground.
However, the middle-aged man beside her was even worse off at this time.
Suddenly, a sharp pain in his chest, an intense feeling of impending death, struck him, making him clutch his chest, his expression pained as he slowly fell to the ground.
“Help… me…” Even his cry for help was as faint as a wisp of smoke.
The woman was terrified but helpless, left only with startled screams!
Manager Hao, who was about to personally attend to Xu Ning, saw this scene, his eyes splitting with rage, and he rushed over to perform first aid, while also not forgetting to call for help.
Whether this person lived or died, he truly couldn't control, but please don't die in his store, thank you!
The onlookers discussed amongst themselves, not necessarily with any malicious intent, but watching a spectacle is simply instinctual.
Xu Ning was among them, his expression peculiar.
They… couldn't have been scared by him, could they?
He was a good citizen; at most, he would just slap someone's face; he definitely wouldn't do anything more excessive.
What exactly did they imagine?
After a while, the ambulance took the man and woman away, and it was unknown if the middle-aged man could be saved.
Xu Ning had no significant emotionalfluctuation at this moment, nor any psychological burden.
They brought it upon themselves; no one else was to blame!
It's just that the consequences were a bit severe!
