5: Could Si Nan be a hidden rich heiress?
As soon as the staff heard Si Nan wanted to buy an incredibly expensive satellite phone, two men and one woman rushed over simultaneously. "We have them, we have them. Please wait a moment, I'll bring some out for you to choose from."
One girl practically ran to get the phones. One must know that people buying satellite phones were rare enough, and this customer wanted an incredibly expensive one. Dressing so low-key meant she was definitely a hidden second-generation rich.
The remaining two men looked at Si Nan with fervent eyes, acting very hospitable. "Please take a seat. May I ask if you would prefer tea or coffee, Miss?"
"The satellite phone is our flagship product. We have many varieties with different prices—"
Their chatter gave Si Nan a headache. She sat on the VIP sofa and said, "Just have one person serve me."
"Alright, alright. Please wait a moment." The two were unwilling, but they still left politely. However, they didn't give up; instead, they ran back to their own counters to grab phones.
The girl had already brought three satellite phones for Si Nan to choose from, and soon the two men also brought two phones each.
In the Pizza Hut across the street, Gao Ming, still bursting with self-confidence, raised his drink to clink glasses with Xu Songquan. "Cheers. Just wait and see how I mess that Fat Pig up when the time comes."
"Cheers, bro. I'm looking forward to seeing her cowardly state when she comes back to beg you. Tell me first, you're not planning to close the door and make her kneel, are you? Hahaha~"
Xu Songquan clinked glasses with Gao Ming, his face wearing an ugly expression of malice and anticipation for a good show.
Gao Ming gave a mysterious smile. "Guess!"
When he said that, Xu Songquan immediately thought of the twisted games Gao Ming played in secret. He instantly wore a bloodthirsty expression. "Quick, tell me which one you're planning to play. This meal is on me."
"Hahaha, it's a secret for now." Gao Ming laughed and threw his head back to drink heartily. He could almost see Si Nan kneeling before him, crying and admitting her mistakes, weeping and begging him to change his mind and take her back.
"Yeah, I'll take that as a yes, man." Xu Songquan also wore a sinister expression, but when he looked toward the phone store across the main road, his excited expression vanished instantly. He pointed at Si Nan inside the store and asked Gao Ming.
"Wait a minute, that person whose back is wide enough to roll noodles on... that couldn't be Si Nan, could it?"
He looked at the store name and then reasoned to himself, "I must have seen wrong. That's a store that only sells the world's top satellite phones. Even the cheapest phone in there starts at fifty thousand. We wouldn't even dare to go in. How could Si Nan afford it? She's always used that antique phone; it's definitely not Si Nan."
Gao Ming was still immersed in his beautiful fantasy and couldn't pull himself out. Seeing his friend's face change drastically, he finally looked in the direction Xu Songquan was pointing. With one look, he immediately stood up: "It's Si Nan, no doubt about it!"
Xu Songquan hurried to pay the bill, even taking the last piece of pizza as he left. Standing at the entrance of the G-Peak Phone Store, both of them felt a sense of prestige. These high-end luxury phones were products they dreamed of but unfortunately couldn't afford.
Every time they passed this store, they wondered if they would have better luck and meet a rich young lady who was a Love Brain like Si Nan and an only child. That way, they wouldn't have to work for the rest of their lives. They could effortlessly squeeze into the circle of the rich and embrace a Beauty while living a superior life at the peak of existence.
Unfortunately, they hadn't met their destined rich woman yet, but they never expected to actually see that Fat Pig Si Nan inside, just like in a dream.
The two didn't dare go in; they just stared wide-eyed through the glass to see if Si Nan really had the money to buy a phone here.
Inside, Si Nan decided on three of the best satellite phones in one go—the kind that were impervious to water and fire and couldn't even be broken by a sledgehammer. They cost over seven hundred thousand in total, which meant spending all the money she had painstakingly saved over the years.
At this moment, she was bargaining with the Manager, determining the maximum amount of free accessories they could give her.
Xu Songquan's mouth hung open in shock. "Gao Ming, she really plans to buy them, and she's buying three at once. Could it be she regretted it so quickly? Were those three phones bought to beg you for a reconciliation? But the quantity seems a bit off."
"The important thing is: where did she get so much money? Buying three in one go... could she, she, she be a hidden rich heiress?"
"I don't know, let's watch and see." Hearing his friend's words, Gao Ming's heart immediately pounded with excitement. If Si Nan could really afford the phones here, then just as his friend guessed, Si Nan was definitely a second-generation rich, and those phones must have been bought to curry favor with him.
Hahaha, great! He knew that an idiot Love Brain like Si Nan couldn't possibly bear to leave him. See, hadn't she already found a way to buy such high-end satellite phones to please him?
However, since this Fat Pig was so rich and hadn't told him, it seemed she wasn't completely stupid. No, when she came out to beg for reconciliation later, he would have to interrogate this Fat Pig thoroughly and find out everything about her background; it would all be his in the future.
Xu Songquan was already green with envy. "Bro, what were you doing? You met such a wealthy Love Brain rich heiress and didn't even know it."
"Although she's a bit fat, her face is actually quite good-looking. I don't care, man, you must coax her back. If you're eating her meat, at least let your bro have some of the soup."
After he spoke, he saw Si Nan grab the three phones and became completely excited. He grabbed Gao Ming's arm, his eyes shining:
"Bro, bro, share the loot. If she really gives you a satellite phone, remember to coax her into selling another one to me a bit cheaper. When the time comes, I'll help you land that tough contract you're working on. I won't take a single cent of commission, how about it?"
"It's a deal!" Gao Ming was naturally happy. Without spending a cent, he would not only get a luxury phone he'd dreamed of and could show off for a lifetime,
But he could also have Xu Songquan help him land a big contract for free, which would bring in at least over a hundred thousand in commission. Most importantly, he would have a walking idiot ATM like Si Nan by his side. It was killing three birds with one stone!
Every cell in Gao Ming's body became active, and the look he gave Si Nan wasn't as full of annoyance as usual. He and Xu Songquan were just waiting to see if Si Nan really had the money to pay. If Si Nan really paid, it would prove she was very rich and had been lying to him all along.
But then he thought it was quite unlikely. He had known Si Nan for three years and had never seen her meet any wealthy family members or relatives behind his back; she didn't even have any decent friends.
Si Nan was a homebody. Besides work, she spent all her time cooking for him, doing laundry, cleaning, and studying recipes. It could be said that except for when she was sleeping, Si Nan's entire heart was devoted to him.
A hidden rich heiress? No matter how he looked at Si Nan, she didn't seem like one, but even if there was only a one-in-ten-thousand chance, he didn't want to wake up from such a beautiful dream!
Just as the two were staring intently at Si Nan's movements, they saw her take out a Black Gold Card from her faded cloth bag. With a "beep," the payment was successful!
"Hahaha, it's real, a Black Gold Card!" Outside, Gao Ming and Xu Songquan embraced each other excitedly. They were about to have high-end luxury satellite phones.
