39: Chapter 39 Breakthrough

Guan Zhixue cast a disdainful glance at Li Tong and said sarcastically,

"Could Miss Li please take out the earrings in your store for me to see!"

Guan Zhixue had clearly mistaken Li Tong for a Cartier clerk.

Li Tong sneered, having no intention of paying any attention to Guan Zhixue.

She turned back and continued to try on the watches the sales assistant had just introduced.

Guan Zhixue pouted indignantly at Liu Jiangbo.

Liu Jiangbo fell for that act every time.

Seeing that Li Tong completely disregarded Guan Zhixue, Liu Jiangbo said angrily,

"What kind of quality is this clerk! Call your manager over here for me!"

Over the past few days, Guan Zhixue had told Liu Jiangbo that she had been wronged at school.

So, Liu Jiangbo naturally helped Guan Zhixue rent a small apartment near the school.

He had wanted to do this for a long time.

But unfortunately, Guan Zhixue had always acted quite reserved.

Even when she went out to get a hotel room with him, it was always just for a short while, never overnight.

Now that he had finally stumbled upon such an opportunity, Liu Jiangbo naturally wanted to seize it.

Liu Jiangbo was already in his forties, and his wife had long since become a faded, bitter woman.

And she gave him a cold shoulder every other day.

Having suppressed his fire for so long, he needed somewhere to vent.

Therefore, for the past two days, Liu Jiangbo and Guan Zhixue had barely left the room.

In return for Guan Zhixue's good performance, Liu Jiangbo had agreed to bring her to Cartier today to buy the pair of earrings she had been eyeing for a long time.

Guan Zhixue was overjoyed upon hearing this and happily cupped Liu Jiangbo's fat face to give him a kiss.

Those earrings were sold individually.

A single one cost over eight thousand, equivalent to an average college student's living expenses for a semester.

Buying the whole pair cost sixteen thousand.

It was impossible for an ordinary person to spend that much money just to buy a piece of jewelry.

Liu Jiangbo was naturally a bit pained by the cost.

He had spent quite a bit of money on Guan Zhixue this year.

But he had indeed enjoyed pleasures with Guan Zhixue that he had never experienced before.

So, he gritted his teeth and agreed to Guan Zhixue's request.

And now, seeing that a clerk dared to ignore his woman's request, he naturally could not sit idly by.

At this moment, the sales assistant hurriedly stepped in to smooth things over.

"The two of you must have had a misunderstanding. This lady is also a customer in our store; she is not our clerk!"

Guan Zhixue narrowed her eyes and stared at the watch Li Tong was trying on.

"So you don't work here."

"What a misunderstanding."

"But come to think of it, Cartier wouldn't hire someone like you."

"By the way, I seem to remember you saying before that you wanted to buy a high-imitation Cartier watch."

"What, did you come here today to try on which model suits you, and then go back to buy the corresponding fake, right!"

"Hmph, how disgusting."

After speaking, she turned her head toward the sales assistant on the side, deliberately raising her voice slightly.

"Handsome, I'm here to buy earrings. Please bring them over for me to try on first."

Li Tong immediately stood up to protest.

"Why? It was clearly my turn first!"

Guan Zhixue smiled mockingly.

"So what if you were first!"

"You can't afford it anyway!"

"Don't think I don't know that your monthly living expenses are only three thousand."

"Even if you saved for years, you couldn't afford the watch on your wrist!"

Guan Zhixue's voice was sharp, attracting the attention of the surrounding customers.

Lin Yi, who was sitting in the rest area, heard the argument and instinctively looked up.

After seeing who it was, he frowned.

"This woman... she really is like a ghost that won't go away!"

At this moment, Li Tong was rendered speechless by Guan Zhixue's retort.

With her own ability, she really couldn't afford this watch.

Moreover, she and Lin Yi had no relationship at all.

Although Lin Yi had agreed to come here to pick out a birthday gift for her.

No one could guarantee that he would actually buy it.

If Lin Yi felt the price was too high and didn't want to pay, it would be normal.

After all, the two of them were not in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

They didn't even count as friends.

At best, they could only be considered classmates.

Who would spend over a hundred thousand to buy a birthday gift for a classmate?

Faced with the aggressive Guan Zhixue at this moment, Li Tong lost her confidence.

"Forget it, it's better to avoid trouble than to cause it."

"If I can't afford to provoke you, can't I at least hide from you!"

Just as Li Tong wanted to take off the watch she was trying on and get away from this place of trouble.

A tall and handsome figure appeared in front of her.

"Why take it off?"

"Don't you like it?"

"I think this watch suits you quite well."

Lin Yi's warm voice made Li Tong instantly feel like she had something to lean on.

Li Tong looked up, and Lin Yi's handsome facial features and gentle, water-like eyes were like spring sunshine, nourishing her parched heart.

"Lin Yi... she..."

Li Tong's heart was filled with grievances, and for a moment, she didn't know where to start.

Lin Yi comforted her.

"I'm here to buy you a birthday gift, why do you care about others."

"Just tell me, do you like this watch or not."

Li Tong nodded gently.

"I like it..."

Seeing this, Guan Zhixue laughed out loud.

"Hahahaha, Li Tong, are you so desperate now?"

"You actually think Lin Yi can afford this kind of thing?"

"Hahahaha, you're really going to make me die of laughter!"

"Don't you know that his pockets are cleaner than his face?"

"He didn't even have the tuition fees to repeat a year before, and had to rely on washing dishes to earn money!"

"How many dishes do you think he needs to wash to afford the watch you want?"

Guan Zhixue laughed extremely brazenly, and the surrounding people cast strange looks.

However, although everyone despised Guan Zhixue's impolite behavior, they would not sympathize with Lin Yi because of it.

A poor kid insisting on bringing a beauty to a luxury store to show off.

This kind of behavior was also very ridiculous.

Seeing this, Lin Yi did not explain much.

He pointed to the watch on Li Tong's wrist and said to the sales assistant.

"Hello, we'll take this watch."

"Please help me pack it up."

"You can just swipe the card directly."

As he spoke, Lin Yi took out his bank card and handed it to the sales assistant.

The sales assistant took the card and brought over the card reader without a word.

"Hello, Sir, the total is 128,000 yuan!"

Lin Yi nodded and coolly entered the password on the card reader.

"Ding, this consumption for the cashback target is 128,000 yuan, cashback target favorability is 45 Points."

"The cashback multiplier for this time is being randomly generated..."

"Generated, this cashback multiplier is 40 times."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining a cashback of 5.12 million yuan!"

What a huge profit.

Lin Yi raised his eyebrows in satisfaction.

"Tongtong, do you like this birthday gift?"

Li Tong took the packed shopping bag from the sales assistant, still a bit dazed.

This aura of buying as soon as he said so really made people a bit bewildered.

Could it be...

Does he really have feelings for me?

Thinking of this, Li Tong's face flushed slightly.

Originally, she just wanted to string Lin Yi along and let him buy her a bag worth over ten thousand, which would have been satisfying enough.

And she had even prepared for a protracted war for this.

First, gradually give Lin Yi a little sweetness, and then make her demands.

But now, nothing had happened between the two of them.

Lin Yi had actually generously given her a 120,000 yuan watch!

You have to know, as a college student, being able to transfer 520 or 1314 to a girlfriend during holidays is already considered very generous!

As the saying goes, to judge whether a man loves you, just see if he is willing to spend money on you.

Li Tong felt a bit ashamed of herself at this moment.

Lin Yi was so sincere, while she had ulterior motives from the beginning.

Such a good man, handsome, gentle, and rich!

If she could really be with him, she would have no regrets even in death!
