She had thought that Chen Ya would slink away after asking the price, but through the window she saw that Chen Ya was actually sitting down on the sofa in a very casual manner!
Waiting any longer would only make things more awkward, so she walked in with her head down.
"You're really something! You're not leaving now!" Lu Qianzi whispered in his ear.
Chen Ya leaned back on the sofa: "What's the point of leaving? It's not illegal to just look around."
"Did you ask about the price just now?" Lu Qianzi asked him softly.
“No,” Chen Ya said, “but I know the prices. Those few in the display case just now, some cost hundreds of thousands, and some cost millions to tens of millions.”
Lu Qianzi was speechless.
You know that, yet you still dare to be so arrogant!
"The environment here is quite nice, the sofas are comfortable, and there's even free juice to drink."
He suddenly pointed at Lu Qianzi beside him and shouted loudly to the shop assistant not far away:
"Give her one of the same."
A shop assistant in the distance gave an "OK" sign.
Lu Qianzi covered her face.
She now has a completely new understanding of her sworn brother's "shamelessness".
"So you just came here to mooch drinks, huh?" Lu Qianzi whispered. "Let's leave before they come, I feel so embarrassed!"
The clothes Chen Ya was wearing clearly bore several Adidas brands.
He looked pretty cool downstairs, but once he sat down here, he suddenly looked out of place, like a husky that had wandered into a pack of wolves!
Lu Qianzi really didn't know how big Chen Ya's heart was to dare to sit here so casually.
It's also possible that he's completely ignorant and has no sense of awe, which is why he's so unburdened.
The shop assistant brought over their drinks and placed a tablet in front of Chen Ya's table.
"Here is our complete collection of complicated timepieces. Please take a look."
Chen Ya picked up the tablet and started watching.
Lu Qianzi sat to the side, her mind racing with calculations.
Leaving directly would be embarrassing. It would be better to wait until Chen Ya has finished looking around, then say, "There's nothing we like here," and then pull Chen Ya away.
So she leaned on Chen Ya's shoulder, pretending to read intently. In reality, her mind was in turmoil, and she couldn't concentrate at all.
After Chen Ya finished reading, he put the tablet on the table and said, "Okay, I've finished reading."
Lu Qianzi stood up, took Chen Ya's hand, and said:
"I'm sorry, your store doesn't have the style we like. We plan to look elsewhere."
"Who said we don't have it? Do you have this model in your store right now? Do you still have this model?" Chen Ya said, pointing to the tablet computer.
The salesperson took the tablet and politely said, "We happen to have these two models in stock."
"Could you please bring it over? I'd like to try it on."
He actually wanted to try them on!
Lu Qianzi was practically screaming inside.
This sworn brother probably wanted to experience the thrill of wearing a watch worth hundreds of thousands or millions.
But what if I break someone else's things?
Even if we sold him, we couldn't afford to lose the money!
Just as Lu Qianzi felt the situation was getting increasingly out of control, a voice suddenly came from behind her:
"Hey, isn't this my cousin Akane? What are you doing here?"
Chapter 190 Kneel Down!
Hearing the voice behind her, Lu Qianzi's expression visibly panicked.
She turned around abruptly and saw a man and a woman standing behind her.
The man was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, wearing a casual HETMES suit, his slicked-back hair as meticulous as a sculpture.
The woman standing next to him had her arm linked with his; she had wavy brown hair, a slender waist, long legs, and wore black high heels.
"It really is my cousin Akane. What a coincidence."
The man sat down on the sofa next to him, his eyes constantly darting around Chen Ya, and his smile grew wider and wider.
Lu Qianzi felt her heart sink to the bottom.
The man's name was Lu Shaohai, and he was her uncle's son.
Lu Shaohai is a big mouth; he's like a mouthpiece for the family.
Moreover, he's a mouthpiece who only tells bad things, not good ones.
The girl next to him is his girlfriend, Gu Yutong, who is on good terms with many scions of prominent families.
This was truly meeting the worst person at the worst possible time.
"Cousin, did you come here to pick out a birthday present for Grandpa as well?" Lu Shaohai asked.
Chen Ya, who was standing next to me, said, "No, she came to help me choose a watch for myself."
Lu Qianzi: "..."
"You are... Akane's cousin's boyfriend?"
Lu Qianzi said, "No, he is my stepbrother, Chen Hai's brother."
"Oh, oh!" Lu Shaohai nodded repeatedly. "Chen Hai told me about you. You're quite the legendary figure."
A legendary figure?
Lu Qianzi turned to look at Chen Ya, but she couldn't see anything legendary about him.
"Chen Hai said you've been living in the countryside for a while, and recently you came back to acknowledge your ancestors, right? That's great!"
Lu Qianzi frowned, secretly blaming Chen Hai for telling everyone everything.
"That's not how it is. My dad recently got in touch with his old friend and asked him to come back for a couple of days. He didn't come back on his own initiative."
Lu Shaohai tilted his head back and said, "Isn't that the same?"
Lu Qianzi felt extremely stifled.
So she disliked chatting with this cousin since she was a child; a single sentence from him could cause her internal injuries.
Lu Shaohai seemed to remember something, and with a chuckle, he reached out and patted Chen Ya's leg, saying:
"You're something else, buying a Patek Philippe as your first watch, how impressive! But let me tell you, Patek Philippe's entry-level models are just so-so, don't choose this one just because of the brand."
Chen Ya said, "So, I want to see their high-end models."
"You? Buying a high-end one?" Lu Shaohai said. "Didn't you ask about the price?"
"I know what I'm doing."
Lu Shaohai chuckled.
"Do you think that low-end watches cost a few hundred dollars and high-end watches cost tens of thousands at most?"
"That's not the case."
Lu Qianzi was digging her toes into the ground, almost tearing the soles of her shoes apart.
She wondered in her heart if, in order to save face, she were to empty her savings and buy Chen Ya a watch worth seventy or eighty thousand yuan, would her mother go easy on her when she got back?
Lu Shaohai stood up and said with a smile:
"Okay, you guys try it first, I'll go take a look over there."
As he spoke, Lu Shaohai took Gu Yutong's hand and walked over to the display case.
Gu Yutong whispered, "The watches here are too expensive, and Grandpa might not even like them. Shall we go somewhere else to look?"
Lu Shaohai looked like he was trying to suppress a laugh, and said:
"No, please block the way for me, I need to take a picture."
Gu Yutong raised her eyebrows: "What are you filming?"
"Don't you find Chen Hai, this eccentric older brother, incredibly interesting?"
"what happened?"
"You come to a Patek Philippe store dressed in head-to-toe Adidas and sit there drinking juice. Don't you think that's hilarious?"
"Oh..." Gu Yutong understood his point a little.
She was focused entirely on Chen Ya's appearance and didn't pay much attention to anything else.
Lu Shaohai secretly snapped a photo of Chen Ya with his phone, then posted it in the family group chat with a sly grin, along with the caption:
"Chen Hai's brother exudes a grand air, dressed in Adidas, while trying on a Patek Philippe watch."
The moment it was posted, a flood of replies appeared below:
"Awesome! That's unique! (Thumbs up)"
"You ran into Chen Hai's brother?"
"Hahaha, that's hilarious! Trying on a Patek Philippe while wearing Adidas..."
"The limited edition inside is alright, but the ones outside are just awful. They're all cheap stuff that only costs a few hundred dollars, and they've managed to get them listed as Patek Philippe?"
Lu Shaohai typed in the group chat with a chuckle: "He doesn't know the prices here."
The group members were laughing hysterically: "Live stream! Be sure to capture the best emojis and share them with us!"
……
"These are the two styles you chose, and they happen to be in stock in the store."
The shop assistant placed two watches on a tray in front of Chen Ya, squatted down next to him, and asked:
Would you like me to help you try them on?
Chen Ya extended his left hand: "Wear the left one first."
"Ok."
The sales clerk, wearing white gloves, professionally put the watch on his wrist.
With its platinum bezel and transparent dial, the intricate mechanical structure is clearly visible, giving the entire watch a mystical and unique beauty.
"It lives up to its name, 5104P. It's worth the price." Chen Ya nodded with a smile.
The sales clerk next to him said, "Sir, you have excellent taste. This watch is elegant and refined, with a vintage and exquisite style, combining individuality and luxury. At the same time, you are also very lucky. Both of these watches you chose are hard to find in stock. They were just air-freighted from our headquarters in Switzerland and arrived today."
Chen Ya held out his hand to Lu Qianzi and asked, "Is it pretty?"
Lu Qianzi asked stiffly, "How much?"
"More than seven million."
She leaned her whole body against Chen Ya, feeling limp and powerless.
She desperately wanted to whisper in Chen Ya's ear and beg him to take off his watch.
I really can't afford to pay for it if it gets damaged!
Chen Ya extended his right hand and said, "Try the other one."
When Chen Ya put on the other watch, his eyes lit up.
The blue dial is studded with tiny diamonds, forming a long galaxy, full of mystery and romance.
Although this 6102P is not as luxurious or expensive as the 5104P he just saw, its understated style and the blue starry sky theme make it more appealing to him.
“This one is much cheaper, look, isn’t it pretty too?” He held out his hand to Lu Qianzi.
"It's beautiful, it's beautiful..." Lu Qianzi's voice trembled, "How much?"
"More than three million."
