339: A rare leisure time

After the two finished their meal, enjoying a rare moment of leisure, Yan Xiaoli decided to invite Wang Doudou, and the three of them would go shopping.

Pan Han originally didn't want to go, but after losing 5 consecutive games of King of Glory, he threw his phone in frustration and followed along.

Half an hour later, the three arrived at SK Mall, the most luxurious and complete luxury shopping center in the capital.

Wang Doudou hadn't seen Pan Han in many days and was overjoyed to see him, practically hugging him as if she was about to kiss him.

Pan Han quickly dodged to the side, holding up two fingers and staring at her: "Don't move, or I'll pressure your acupuncture points."

"Tsk, haven't seen you in a few days, and you've gotten bolder!" Wang Doudou struggled twice, realizing she couldn't gain an advantage, and gave up.

"What's the progress with your dad?" Pan Han suddenly remembered the collaboration for the entry-level Evolution Potion and decided to ask.

However, he wasn't particularly concerned about the potion collaboration anymore.

If it could be done, great; if not, so be it.

Before, it was about making money, but now with the Knight Order, that amount of money wasn't very useful.

But Wang Doudou was the first person he saved, so he felt a slightly special connection to her.

Besides, after she recovered from her illness, she became a cheerful girl again. It wouldn't be bad to just be friends.

After all, more friends mean more opportunities.

"Soon, soon, probably by New Year's Day," Wang Doudou said, spreading her hands, indicating that matters concerning medicine couldn't be rushed and needed to proceed slowly.

"Can the Middle Eastern tycoon wait?" Pan Han remembered they had mentioned a rich client who was in a hurry.

"It's only a little over a month, it won't make much difference."

"Alright, you guys can arrange it. When it's time to split the money, transfer 2.0 billion long country currency directly to Yan Xiaoli first. She needs it for filming." Pan Han nodded, standing beneath the SK Mall, his tone much more confident.

"What?! Did I hear that right?!" Wang Doudou was taken aback, her mouth wide open in shock.

"You heard right, it's 2.0 billion long country currency!"

Yan Xiaoli had initially thought Pan Han was joking, but she didn't expect him to be serious!

What kind of move was this?!

The two women looked at each other and said in unison: "You're not trying to launder money, are you?"

"Do I need to launder money that I set my sights on?" Pan Han rolled his eyes at them both and walked straight into the mall.

SK Mall, in the capital, was known to everyone. It was a sacred place in the hearts of countless women in the capital!

It had held the top spot in sales for many consecutive years, a unique existence among all malls.

Virtually any luxury item one could think of could be bought there.

Pan Han had accompanied Chen Yun there once before. At the time, both of them were crazy enough to want to experience it.

The prices, however, shocked them beyond belief. They stared at the price tag of a diamond ring, counting the zeros.

After counting, under the sales associate's scornful gaze, they scurried to the underground supermarket.

It turned out, the underground supermarket shocked them just as much.

A box of strawberries for 199, a bunch of grapes for 298, six lychees for 298, a box of cherries for 900, a leg of ham for 12,000, and a bottle of vinegar for 24,800.

At the time, they thought they were seeing things, but upon closer inspection, it really was 24,800!

Holy cow!

What kind of vinegar costs 24,800 a bottle?

After the price-shocking experience, the two bought a 15 long country currency bottle of sparkling water and fled!

Once inside, besides feeling warm, there was nothing particularly special.

Although it was opulent, Pan Han had no interest in these things.

Wang Doudou was a regular here, and Yan Xiaoli had been a few times before but rarely bought anything.

The three had different mindsets.

Pan Han considered the future movie promotions and roadshows, where the lead actress, Yan Xiaoli, would definitely need to look glamorous, so he planned to get her some outfits.

Wang Doudou led Yan Xiaoli through various luxury stores, while Pan Han followed behind, bored.

Even though he was now an Intermediate Evolver, shopping with women still made him tired.

This was pure magical damage; no matter how thick your health bar was, it drained health proportionally!

Pan Han remembered a game he used to play called "Zhao Yun's Legend," where he used a cheat to boost Zhao Yun's health to 100,000.

He thought he could now slaughter everyone.

However, he accidentally wandered into a mage's camp, and they poisoned him to death in a few hits.

At the time, Pan Han almost threw his keyboard, cursing profusely.

So many years had passed, and this scene made him shiver slightly!

Yan Xiaoli was different from Wang Doudou. Although she was much better off now than before, she still couldn't compare to a daughter of a prominent family.

Wang Doudou showed her all the latest seasonal items: various coats, sweaters, leather boots, and so on.

Pan Han didn't understand; he lacked that aesthetic sense.

But he could tell that Yan Xiaoli understood trends; her eyes lit up when she saw these new items.

"Alright! Looks like I'm going to spend a fortune today." Pan Han took out his special phone and sent a message to Ouyang Cong.

"Shopping at SK." Just a few words, concise and to the point. What Ouyang Cong did with that information was his business.

Upon seeing the message, Ouyang Cong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared to previous requests, shopping was an easy task!

"Received! Arranging it immediately." Ouyang Cong replied at once.

The Knight Order had shares in SK Mall, but it was a non-core asset, an peripheral industry.

Pan Han had previously focused on large corporations and hadn't paid much attention to these smaller fry.

After all, it was just an annual sales volume of over 20 billion long country currency, which would put it outside the top 100 in the Knight Order's vast industrial empire.

Ouyang Cong hung up the phone and immediately contacted SK Mall.

According to protocol, the identity of their leader could not be directly revealed to these controlled industries.

However, arranging a full-time personal shopper, private shopping after closing, and handling the bill was not a problem.

Indeed, two minutes later, a young woman in a black uniform ran up to Pan Han.

"Hello, Mr. Pan." The young woman smiled and nodded, very politely.

Pan Han also nodded at her, immediately understanding what was happening, and waved his hand, signaling her not to say too much.

The young woman immediately understood.

Wang Doudou and Yan Xiaoli were surprised. Who was this?

"Today, I will be serving Mr. Pan and the two ladies throughout your visit," the young woman replied elegantly and politely, then stood quietly behind Pan Han.

Wang Doudou was a little slow to react. How many times had she been here, and she'd never received such treatment!

Pan Han had only been away for a few days, how did he get such treatment?

What had happened?

Yan Xiaoli, however, smiled without speaking. She didn't care why Pan Han received such treatment; her main principle was to not ask questions.

Absolutely not a single extra question!

What happened next was even more interesting.

Whichever store the three of them went to, that store would immediately close.

Not only were the people inside asked to leave, but those outside couldn't even think of entering.

Several security guards in black stood at the entrance, making a grand show.

Many customers entered in confusion and were asked to leave in confusion.

They thought it was a fire drill, but it turned out someone important had arrived, requiring a clear-out.

Exaggerated!

Shocking!

Just absolutely ridiculous!

Holy cow!

The customers who were asked to leave, and the onlookers, all took out their phones, wanting to film inside. They wanted to see who had such immense power.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they took out their phones, they felt uncomfortable all over, as if being gnawed by a swarm of ants, their hands trembling non-stop. They could only keep backing away until they were far enough to feel slightly better.

Pan Han merely used a small trick to force everyone back; he didn't want to be filmed by others.
