"Hahaha, salespeople sure know how to talk!" Luofeng continued teasing.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Luo!" Li Qiang replied politely.
Luofeng casually picked up a keychain and handed it to Qin Rubing. "Pack up everything else and put it all with the 5271P. This wristwatch is for my dad, along with the keychain and cufflinks—all for him." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
"Alright!" Li Qiang nodded.
Soon, Luofeng left Patek Philippe with Qin Rubing.
Qin Rubing was examining her own 4948G001 and asked curiously, "Why is Patek Philippe considered the top brand for wristwatches?"
"Because it’s Patek Philippe!" Luofeng laughed.
There are so many luxury watch brands. Why is Patek Philippe’s status unshakeable? Is it the hefty price tag? Richard Mille has a plethora of watches priced over ten million, and plenty above five million. But in the watch community, opinions about Richard Mille are mixed. After all, they lack historical heritage, having only been established in 2001. The key is, their marketing hype is a bit too strong; anyone with a bit more experience in the watch world can see their true situation. Their foundation lies in limited production and high price positioning—a status symbol for the new generation of hundred-millionaires. Their entry-level models start at least at five to six hundred thousand. But when it comes to holding value, Patek Philippe is still incredible. Yet, at auctions, Richard Mille watches not only hold one hundred percent of their value but sometimes even sell at a premium. Their hype and promotion are truly something else.
The two arrived at SKP mall. Luofeng, holding Qin Rubing’s hand, was planning to buy some cosmetics for his mother.
"Rubing, what cosmetics do you usually use?" Luofeng asked casually.
"I mainly use Sisley!" Qin Rubing said.
Dry you to death? This brand is quite interesting.
"Didn’t see that coming, little rich lady?" Luofeng teased.
Qin Rubing retorted playfully, "I’m frugal in other areas, and combined with various performance subsidies, all that money goes into cosmetics. Besides, I use them sparingly and mostly rely on going to bed early and waking up early for my skincare."
This point was spot-on. Going to bed early and waking up early is the best cosmetic. Anyway, Luofeng never understood the mentality of those who use the most expensive cosmetics and then stay up all night.
Luofeng quickly led Qin Rubing to the cosmetics area. The dazzling array of cosmetics was almost overwhelming.
If you asked Luofeng about cars, he could go on for three days and nights without stopping—from power to torque, from all-wheel drive to off-roading, from entry-level commuter cars costing tens of thousands to luxury cars worth tens of millions. Luofeng could talk about them all. He could do the same with wristwatches. But cosmetics? Sorry, Brother Feng doesn’t understand those.
Luofeng asked Qin Rubing, who was beside him, "Rubing, I want to buy some cosmetics for my mom first. What brand do you think would be suitable?"
After thinking for a bit, Qin Rubing replied, "Just go directly for Bolybarny. That brand is positioned very high in the cosmetics world."
"No problem, let’s go take a look!" Luofeng said.
"I know where it is. I browsed La Prairie once when I was buying Sisley, and its prices were enough to make one feel a bit disheartened!" Qin Rubing remembered that a simple face cream cost around five thousand, and that was just for 50 milliliters. Did you think it was a big bottle you could use freely? It’s pitifully little. Even less than a boy’s pocket money. So, to save money... do many girls find alternative methods? Like using other things instead of cosmetics?
As she spoke, Qin Rubing led Luofeng swiftly towards La Prairie.
But halfway there, Qin Rubing suddenly stopped.
"What’s wrong?"
Before Qin Rubing could speak, a somewhat youthful voice called out, "Qin Rubing?"
Luofeng looked over. He saw a girl who looked quite young but was wearing makeup. Accompanying her was a middle-aged woman.
Luofeng immediately checked their data.
Qin Ruo Wen.
Fourteen years old.
Height: 155 cm.
Weight: 57 kg.
Physical Health: 80 points.
Qin Ruo Wen? If I remember correctly, she’s Qin Rubing’s younger half-sister, right? A morality score of 79? Kind of low! An appearance rating of 60? The only hope is that she’ll blossom with age? But at a height of just over 1.5 meters and a weight of 57 kg, even if she changes drastically by nineteen, it won’t be enough to save her. No wonder her figure score is so low. Friendliness at 59... probably because her dislike for Qin Rubing has extended to me.
Fang Yuanyuan.
Thirty-eight years old.
Height: 162 cm.
Weight: 50 kg.
Appearance: 63.
Figure: 64.
Good Feeling Degree: 59 points.
Purity: 77 points.
Morality: 70 points.
Physical Health: 78 points.
Just over 60 for appearance? Alright, I’ve made my judgment: Qin Ruo Wen is highly unlikely to blossom with age. Purity 77? That seems problematic. Definitely problematic. It looked like Qin Rubing’s father might be wearing a green hat.
"Qin Rubing, why are you here?" Fang Yuanyuan came over and asked, simultaneously sizing up both Qin Rubing and Luofeng.
Qin Rubing was very fashionably dressed today. Her LV wool coat might not have had an obvious tag, but the wool scarf clearly displayed the LV label. And her Stuart Weitzman over-the-knee boots were very recognizable. Both Fang Yuanyuan and Qin Ruo Wen could tell that Qin Rubing’s outfit was expensive and stylish.
As for Luofeng’s attire, it was much simpler. He had been wearing Uniqlo for the past few days, primarily because it was comfortable for lounging in the large teahouse, so he just wore whatever felt good. When Luofeng went out today, he was dressed in the same casual style. The only noticeable brand item was his Gucci sports shoes.
Luofeng asked, feigning ignorance, "Rubing, who are they?"
Qin Rubing introduced coolly, "My stepmother, Fang Yuanyuan, and my sister, Qin Ruo Wen."
"I’m Luofeng, Qin Rubing’s boyfriend. It’s a pleasure to meet you," Luofeng introduced himself with a smile.
Qin Ruo Wen completely ignored Luofeng, her attention fixed on Qin Rubing. She then spotted another striking item on Qin Rubing: the Van Cleef & Arpels Double-disc fingertip ring on her left hand. Despite her young age, Qin Ruo Wen was very familiar with Van Cleef & Arpels, even owning several necklaces and bracelets from the brand. Of course, they were all knock-offs. Van Cleef & Arpels is a hotbed for counterfeits; nine out of ten pieces on the market are fake. After all, who can resist the charm of Van Cleef & Arpels? But then again, who can afford such extravagant prices?
"Mm," Fang Yuanyuan responded to Luofeng indifferently.
Luofeng took the initiative, asking, "Auntie, what brings you here?"
This was the same question Fang Yuanyuan had just asked Qin Rubing. It seemed like a simple question, but in reality, it was laced with sarcasm.
