Zong Rui didn’t give Qu Man a chance, pulling her straight outside.
The table full of desserts had barely been touched.
Qi Sheng called a waiter over and had them packed up to go.
He’d bring them to Gu Feng and Gu Hai later; it could be their lunch.
...
They arrived at Henglong Square in Shanghai, the place with the most comprehensive collection of luxury brands.
It was a must-visit spot.
Although Chairman Qi was a bit "poor" at the moment, the balance in his account was still more than an ordinary person could earn in a lifetime.
What’s more, Qi Sheng had a rarely used Intelligent Dragon Card.
It had a credit limit of eight million.
As long as he wasn’t buying supercars, luxury mansions, high-end custom jewelry, or limited-edition watches, it was impossible to use it all on daily shopping.
While buying clothes for the two women, Qi Sheng noticed something interesting.
Zong Rui’s affection score was maxed out.
No matter how much money he spent on her, it remained at 100.
On the other hand, an "Affection +1" prompt would pop up for Qu Man from time to time.
For Qi Sheng, who possessed the "superpower of money," was raising a girl’s affection score with money even a challenge?
An Hermes Birkin?
He bought two directly, one for Zong Rui and one for Qu Man.
Just the required accompanying purchases cost 500,000.
Adding the two 200,000-yuan bags, the total came to 900,000.
"I really can’t accept this bag..."
Qu Man had just been helping Zong Rui pick one out.
She had no idea Qi Sheng was going to buy one for her too and hurriedly tried to refuse.
"Take it. Consider it a bonus for joining Banyan Tree Group."
Qi Sheng gave Zong Rui a look.
"Manman, just accept it. At worst, I’ll pay him back for you."
Zong Rui winked at Qi Sheng, clearly implying a special method of repayment.
"Then... thank you, President Qi."
After a round of persuasion from Zong Rui, Qu Man hesitated for a moment before accepting it.
[Qu Man’s Affection +5. Current Affection: 75 (Heart-fluttering)]
Looking at the system prompt, Qi Sheng couldn’t help but feel impressed.
’Hermes really is something else. It boosted her affection by five points in one go.’
He was getting very close to the 80-point threshold for becoming a couple.
The thought of soon having this stunning beauty for himself made Qi Sheng feel a small, uncontrollable thrill of excitement.
In his past life, even when he saw a stunning beauty like Qu Man, he could only watch from afar.
He didn’t even have the courage to go up and talk to her.
Let alone chatting and laughing with her at such a close distance.
Leaving the Hermes store, Zong Rui and Qu Man had both switched to their new Birkin bags.
Zong Rui’s was black and Qu Man’s was white—a classic "best friends" set.
What was it like carrying an Hermes bag?
Other girls walking toward them would stare at Zong Rui and Qu Man with envy and jealousy.
For Zong Rui, this feeling was something she was long accustomed to.
For Qu Man, however, it was a rather novel experience.
Working hard in a metropolis like Shanghai, what girl wouldn’t like a luxury bag from Hermes?
It wasn’t that no one had tried to give Qu Man a bag before, but she had always rejected them outright.
Accepting such an expensive bag was equivalent to giving the other person a chance to pursue her.
But Qi Sheng was different. His "hardware" and "software" were both top-tier.
With Zong Rui helping to persuade her, and given her own already high affection score for him, accepting his bag brought an unexpected sense of surprise and sweetness.
When pursuing the same girl, the feedback a handsome guy gets versus an ugly guy is worlds apart.
Just as they were passing the Audemars Piguet store, Qi Sheng’s interest was piqued.
