Li Haochen looked at the woman who had just spoken. She was mature and alluring, with a fantastic figure, and he sensed she was unfathomably deep – that was his first impression.
The person who had arrived was Ouyang Nana, the South China General Manager of Vacheron Constantin.
Liu Yongxin spoke first, shifting the blame. "Manager, it's because Li Qianrong was carelessly showing the watch to others, and almost dropped it, that I said a few words to her."
Li Haochen was also annoyed by Liu Yongxin and said with some anger, "You're the manager, right? Vacheron Constantin is a world-class brand. Using the wrong person can damage your image. I wanted to buy this watch, and Miss Li Qianrong took it out for me to see. It's that simple. Is there a problem with that?
As for what happened next, I don't want to say more. There should be quite a few surveillance cameras here. If you check them, you should see everything clearly..."
"Ring ring ring..."
Murong Yanran's call stopped Li Haochen from continuing. "Hello, Yanran... I was just passing by Zi Jun's place, so I came up to take a look. Have you gone back yet?... Okay, I'm about to go back too."
"Where were we? Oh, forget it. Qianrong, please help me wrap this watch. I'm in a hurry."
"Manager..." Li Qianrong looked at the alluring woman beside her. After receiving a nod, she happily helped Li Haochen pack the watch. Liu Yongxin, on the other hand, was somewhat terrified, a cold sweat breaking out on her forehead. She hadn't expected the ordinarily dressed Li Haochen to buy it so readily, without hesitation. It was over two hundred thousand yuan.
The manager beside them said nothing, appearing calm. What she was thinking was unknown, but as Li Haochen paid, she suddenly said, "Qianrong, give Mr. Li a ten percent discount."
"Of course... Of course."
Li Qianrong and Liu Yongxin were both astonished. A ten percent discount was treatment reserved for super clients. Li Qianrong couldn't quite understand it, while Liu Yongxin broke out in another cold sweat. Although the manager hadn't pursued who was right or wrong for the moment, the ten percent discount made things abundantly clear.
Even with the discount, 208,800 yuan was enough to make most people gasp. Li Haochen paid, exchanged a few words with Li Qianrong, and then bid farewell to go home.
As soon as Li Haochen left, Ouyang Nana's face darkened. She looked coldly at Liu Yongxin. "You've followed me for several years, and I know your character very well. This is your last chance. Go to the customer service department and report there. You'll be working there starting tomorrow."
"Manager, I..." Liu Yongxin wanted to say more, but Ouyang Nana's icy stare frightened her into silence. If she said anything else, she probably wouldn't even get a job in customer service. She could only lower her head and go inside to pack her belongings.
Ouyang Nana looked calmly at Li Qianrong and said softly, "Starting tomorrow, you can be in charge of the counter. Your sales commission will be calculated as a formal employee."
Li Qianrong was overjoyed and thanked Ouyang Nana excitedly.
Leaving Binhai Plaza, wanting to surprise Murong Yanran, Li Haochen found an ordinary plastic bag to conceal the exquisite watch packaging. He rode his beloved little motorcycle, singing loudly, much to the distress of the ears of pedestrians along the road.
When he arrived at his doorstep, the lights were bright. Murong Yanran was already lying on the sofa, engrossed in watching food tutorials on Xiaohongshu. On the coffee table beside her, nail polish bottles were arranged.
Today, Murong Yanran was wearing shorts and a round-neck t-shirt. Her fair, flawless thighs seemed to make the air blush with shyness.
Li Haochen's heart fluttered at the sight. "Uh, it feels a bit shorter than last time."
Such a pair of snow-white, tender, long legs inevitably brought to mind the words of a male guest from a variety show in our Taiwan province, "With such beautiful legs, I wouldn't get tired of playing with them for a year."
"What are you holding?"
"Uh, nothing. Just some fishing gear. I'm going to take a shower first, and I'll give you a massage later." With that, Li Haochen quickly entered the room and put the watch away.
After showering, seeing Murong Yanran still engrossed in her phone, Li Haochen quietly slipped into the room and took out the watch. He peeked through the crack in the door, then walked up to Murong Yanran with his hands behind his back.
"It's been a few days since you gave me a massage. Today, you'll have to double the effort," Murong Yanran pouted, acting spoiled. After speaking, she buried her head in a pillow, finding a comfortable position to await the enjoyment.
Li Haochen placed the watch on the coffee table behind him and began massaging Murong Yanran. His movements were gentle and skillful, full of affection.
"Don't get too tired. Delegate some responsibilities to the people below."
"Mmm, I'm observing. I don't dare to yet, as I haven't understood everything clearly."
"I think Yang Tao is quite capable." After several interactions, Li Haochen felt he was pretty good. He mentioned it briefly, just to hint. Whether to use him or not depended on Murong Yanran's own judgment.
"Mmm, I think so too. Your over three hundred thousand yuan was proposed by him. He said it was the price he bid. Otherwise, I would have given you only a hundred thousand, hehe!"
"Oh, is that so? Then I really should give him more gifts. The money will just pour in, hehe!" Li Haochen hadn't expected that the money had been proposed by Yang Tao. He was a bit surprised.
"Why did you stop?"
"I'm just tickling you. Wait a moment."
Li Haochen turned, took out the watch, and pretended to massage her arm. He continued until he reached her left wrist, then quickly lifted it and put the wristwatch on her.
"Take a look."
Murong Yanran had already felt something unusual on her wrist. She looked up, her eyes narrowing into crescent moons. With dimples and a face like a peach blossom, her smile was as beautiful as a flower. Li Haochen was mesmerized.
"Does it look good?"
"Mmm, it looks good." Murong Yanran opened her five fingers and brought them to her eyes, looking left and right. The smile on her face never faded.
Seeing Murong Yanran so happy, Li Haochen thought the two hundred thousand yuan was well spent. However, as he helped her apply nail polish, she kept extending her left hand and waving it in front of Li Haochen, almost causing him to paint crookedly.
When Li Haochen returned to the room to rest, he was continuously bothered by Murong Yanran. Her WeChat messages never stopped, sending selfie photos from various angles, of course, only showing her left wrist.
The next morning at breakfast, Li Haochen came out with dark circles under his eyes, yawning continuously. It was evident he hadn't slept all night.
Murong Yanran was already in the kitchen, sweetly preparing breakfast. Seeing Li Haochen enter, she burst into laughter. "Pfft... Hahaha, now you don't have to go to Chengdu to see the national treasure."
"It's all your fault. You made me not sleep all night." Li Haochen's face was dark. Just as he puffed out his cheeks to complain, Murong Yanran stood on tiptoe, wrapped her arms around Li Haochen's neck, and gave him a sweet kiss.
"Alright, I won't send so many tonight. At most a thousand pictures, hehe!"
"ヾ(｡ꏿ﹏ꏿ)ﾉﾞ"
While eating breakfast, Murong Yanran kept swinging her left hand, driving Li Haochen to the brink of despair. "Should I not have bought it?"
"What are you muttering about?"
"N-nothing!"
