34: Chapter 34 Wang Hao's Revenge

Because the System notification of a favorability increase, which he had been anticipating for a long time, did not ring as expected.

Qin Yi silently calculated in his head that the things he had bought for Xu Qian were worth nearly 200,000, so how could there be no change in favorability at all?

Could it be that once the favorability of the opposite sex reaches 80, the monetary offensive no longer works?

Qin Yi couldn't help but ask the System, "System, let me ask you. Is it very difficult for favorability to increase once it reaches 80?"

[Ding! To answer the host, the increase in favorability varies from person to person. Some people value material wealth; for such people, as long as the host spends enough money, favorability will naturally increase quickly. Others value feelings; this requires the host to give the other party emotional resonance and satisfaction to increase their favorability.]

"Uh, so you're saying what Xu Qian really needs is emotional resonance and satisfaction?"

[Ding! To answer the host, this requires the host to make their own judgment; the System cannot provide assistance to the host!]

Emotional resonance and satisfaction?

How about taking her for a walk on the Bund in a while? Take a sightseeing cruise and enjoy the night view of the Magic City?

Qin Yi was well-acquainted with these little tricks; when he was chasing Su Mo before, he had indeed done plenty of these romantic things...

But just as Qin Yi was preparing to put his plan into action, Xu Qian reminded him, "Young Master Qin, have you thought about what gifts to buy for your father?"

Only then did Qin Yi remember—how could he have almost forgotten his own dad?

Qin Yi looked around and happened to spot the Armani flagship store on the second floor, so he called out to Xu Qian, "Come on, let's go down to the second floor!"

...

Not far away, Wang Hao and the little influencer also walked out of the Sinan Feast buffet restaurant.

Wang Hao looked around for Qin Yi and happened to see the two of them carrying many gift bags, taking the escalator down to the second floor.

Wang Hao noticed the many Chanel bags Qin Yi was carrying, and his suspicion grew even stronger.

The little influencer clearly didn't notice Wang Hao's odd behavior as she clung to his arm and asked sweetly, "Brother Hao, are we going to the hotel now, or should we walk around some more?"

Wang Hao didn't answer immediately but stared coldly at Qin Yi until he saw them enter the Armani store, then he replied coldly, "Let's go to Chanel first!"

Hearing this, the little influencer immediately beamed with joy, thinking that Wang Hao was planning to buy her a gift.

Thus, she tightened her grip on Wang Hao's arm and said in a cloying voice, "Brother Hao, you're so good to me, I love you to death..."

...

Inside the Chanel boutique, the sales assistant was secretly wondering where to go with her boyfriend to celebrate after work.

From Qin Yi's order just now, she could make nearly 20,000 in commission; she couldn't feel any better.

At this moment, seeing another couple enter the store, she immediately put on a sincere smile and went forward to welcome them, "Welcome to Chanel. Sir, Madam, how can I help you?"

Wang Hao reached out and patted the little influencer's perky backside, saying, "Go look around on your own first!"

The little influencer was overjoyed, stood on her tiptoes, and planted a loud kiss on Wang Hao's face, saying affectionately, "Brother Hao, you're so good!"

After saying that, she headed straight for the bag section.

The sales assistant wanted to follow and introduce the items, but Wang Hao stopped her and said, "Wait a moment, I have something I'd like to ask."

The sales assistant was a bit suspicious but stopped and looked at Wang Hao, asking, "Please go ahead, sir."

Wang Hao leaned in closer and asked in a low voice, "Just now, did a man and a woman buy a lot of things in your store?"

"Yes, they did. Do you know them, sir?"

"Yes, I know them. What did they buy? How much did they spend? Who paid the bill?" Wang Hao pressed.

Hearing this, the sales assistant gave an awkward smile and replied, "Uh... Sir, I'm sorry, that's customer privacy... It's not convenient to disclose."

"Haha, don't misunderstand. I'm that girl's brother. That guy is my sister's blind date partner; I'm just afraid she's being scammed..." Wang Hao's eyes darted around as he made up a lie to brush it off.

The sales assistant frowned slightly; although she didn't know if what the man said was true, she thought there was nothing wrong with just asking what was bought and how much was spent.

So, the sales assistant smiled faintly and replied, "I see... Then you don't have to worry at all, sir. That handsome guy just now was quite wealthy and very generous. By the way, I can show you the shopping receipt."

The sales assistant led Wang Hao to the counter, took the shopping receipt out of a drawer, and handed it to him.

Looking at the amount on the receipt, the corners of Wang Hao's eyes couldn't stop twitching as he confirmed, "Are you sure that guy paid the bill?"

The sales assistant nodded with great certainty, "Positive! It was that handsome guy's bank card, and he entered the password himself. There's absolutely no mistake!"

Holy shit!

Did this guy Qin Yi win the lottery?

Spending 400,000 at Chanel! Is he crazy?!

He had learned from Su Mo that even before Qin Yi's family went bankrupt, Qin Yi had never spent money so generously...

Just as he was wondering, his phone rang.

Wang Hao picked it up and saw that it was Brother Dao calling.

Wang Hao put the receipt back on the counter, said thank you, and walked straight out of the Chanel store to answer the phone.

The sales assistant, meanwhile, went over to the little influencer and eagerly introduced the bags.

...

"Hey, Hao-zi, the brothers have all arrived. Where are you?"

On Level 2 of the International Finance Center's underground parking lot, in the back seat of a black Mercedes-Benz, a scar-faced man was holding his phone on speakerphone, his voice echoing in the car.

Wang Hao kept his eyes fixed on the Armani flagship store on the second floor, and after confirming that Qin Yi and the other were still in the store, he lowered his voice and replied, "Brother Dao, I'm in the mall right now. That kid Qin Yi is still in the Armani flagship store on the second floor."

The scar-faced man was indeed the Brother Dao Wang Hao had mentioned.

Brother Dao replied calmly, "Alright, I'll send the brothers over now."

"Wait, Brother Dao."

"What? Something else?" Brother Dao asked with a hint of impatience in his voice.

Wang Hao paused and smiled awkwardly, "Brother Dao, you know, it's really not convenient for me to show my face in this kind of thing... so..."

Brother Dao snorted disdainfully and interrupted him, "Fine, don't I know you? Stop pretending. Just remember to treat the brothers to a good time once it's done."

Wang Hao quickly agreed, "Hehe, don't worry, Brother Dao, I'll definitely take care of the brothers."

Brother Dao nodded with satisfaction, "Mm, that's that then. I'm hanging up. I'll notify you when it's done."

After saying that, Brother Dao hung up the phone, his expression becoming even gloomier.

He kicked the back of the driver's seat and gave an order to his subordinate, A-Qiang, "A-Qiang, tell the brothers to get to work! That kid is in the Armani flagship store on the second floor. Just vent some anger for Hao-zi; don't be too heavy-handed. It wouldn't be good if someone ends up dead."

A-Qiang, with his pompadour, full beard, sharp facial features, and a tattoo of a snake coiled around a sword on his arm, looked like a tough character. He immediately nodded and replied upon hearing the order, "Yes! Boss."

However, just as he was about to open the door and get out of the car, Brother Dao added, "Also, I heard from Hao-zi that the female companion with that kid looks pretty good. If you get the chance, bring her over so the brothers can have a taste tonight!"

Hearing this, a lustful grin appeared on A-Qiang's face, "Hehe, thanks, Boss!"

"Go on, and stay sharp!" Brother Dao waved his hand dismissively, signaling him to move.

Then, the driver's door of the Mercedes-Benz opened, and A-Qiang got out and walked to a black MPV.

He reached out and slapped the rear door, shouting loudly, "Time to work!"

Immediately after, the left and right doors of the black MPV slid open, and five men poured out.

They weren't very old, but each had tattoos of dragons and tigers on their arms and were dressed all in black, looking like a group of delinquent youth.

The last one to get out was a baldy who didn't look very bright.

Unlike the other four, he was carrying a black leather bag.

Seeing this, A-Qiang frowned and pointed at the black leather bag, snapping, "What the hell are you doing with that?! Put it back!"

Baldy asked foolishly, "Aren't we going to fight? How can we fight without weapons?"

A-Qiang glared at him and scolded, "Are you stupid? This is a mall; there are surveillance cameras everywhere! If we go pick a fight and have a brawl, it's at most a mutual fight! If you carry a bag of weapons, that's called intentional assault! Do you understand?"

Baldy scratched his head and asked hesitantly, "Then... what if the other side has weapons?"

A-Qiang waved his hand impatiently, "Damn! There are six of us, and we can't handle one guy? I've never seen your brain being so sharp before. Fine, stop talking and put it back!"

Baldy said "Oh" and didn't say anything more, obediently putting the black leather bag back in the car.

Then, the five of them followed behind A-Qiang and entered the mall.

On the way, A-Qiang instructed everyone, "The boss said we're just going to teach that kid a lesson this time. Whatever you do, don't kill anyone, or it'll be a big problem. Also, I heard there's a woman with that kid who's quite beautiful. If we get the chance, we'll bring her back. After the boss is done enjoying himself, maybe we can have a taste too."

"Hehehe, a woman! A woman is good!" Baldy immediately chimed in excitedly upon hearing about a beautiful woman, a wretched smile appearing on his face.

The other lackeys also looked at each other with lustful expressions; they originally thought they were just out to vent anger for Wang Hao, but they didn't expect there to be extra "perks," which made them look forward to the action even more.

Seeing everyone's high spirits, A-Qiang continued, "But remember, we're here to do business, not to play. Don't get blinded by beauty and forget the main task."

"Yes, Brother Qiang!" everyone responded in unison.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the Armani flagship store on the second floor of the mall.
