Chapter 843 - 843 Someone is Carrying the Weight for You
Zhao Wen pursed her lips. This was a little heartbreaking!
“That’s impossible. This is my personal computer. It’s not even connected to the Internet. How can this be?”
Zhao Wen patted Andy’s shoulder earnestly. “When you inserted the first USB drive, your computer was already infected. Otherwise, why would he have handed the USB drive with the 3.0 technology to you? Other than that, it’s very likely that the things in your computer were stolen by him. Let’s pray that there’s nothing important inside.”
Andy was speechless. She covered her head with both hands and looked like she was in pain.
“How could this be…”
“The reason is that Huaxia has an idiom that goes ‘difficult to guard against’!”
…
After leaving the restaurant, Lin Yi looked at his watch. It was already 7:30 p.m., but he did not call Ji Qingyan.
Christmas was the day after tomorrow. He had to prepare the gifts first.
Damn it, he had to prepare four gifts for a break.
‘Why did the heavens make things difficult for a kind child like me?’
Lin Yi looked at the GPS and drove to Times Square nearby. He took the elevator to the fourth floor.
This was the jewelry section. The top ten high-end jewelry stores in the world were all settled here.
As long as you had money, there was nothing you couldn’t buy in Zhonghai.
“F*ck, look at that man at the elevator. He’s so handsome.”
“It’s almost Christmas. And he’s here alone. He must be buying a gift for his girlfriend.”
“Then we have to rope him in. He’s such a handsome little brother. We have to bring him to the shop and take a closer look.”
“But don’t you think he’s too young? Harry Winston’s goods aren’t cheap. Do you think he can afford them?”
“Is it really that important whether he buys anything or not? It’s more important for us to look at the little brother.”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. I like what you’re saying.”
As she spoke, one of the long-haired female shop assistants waved at Lin Yi.
“Little Brother, do you want to buy a gift? Come to Harry Winston and take a look. I can help you apply for the special internal price.”
Lin Yi looked up and realized that she was from Harry Winston.
Although he wasn’t in the fashion industry, he knew of many women brands and understood them quite well.
Harry Winston and Van Cleef & Arpels were both luxury brands in the top tier of the jewelry industry. They had the right to look down on all other jewelry brands.
Just as Hermès stood at the top of the luxury fashion industry.
“Brother, take a look at our Van Cleef store too. There are two new products, and they’re limited edition.”
“Then I’ll go over and take a look.”
Lin Yi had a good impression of this brand because he had bought jewelry from Van Cleef at Wanda Plaza.
Especially the four-leaf clover accessory, which was an instant classic.
Coincidentally, it was the weekend tomorrow. After buying it, he would send it to Wang Ying first.
Give the Christmas sky some time.
“F*ck, what a b*tch. She actually snatched our little brother.”
“Roar! When there’s a good-looking young man again, we’ll give him to you. We won’t snatch him anymore.”
“I’ve been working here for a few years, but I’ve never seen such a good-looking little brother. It’s impossible for the next one to be as handsome as him.”
“Then we don’t care.”
“Little brother, you can’t be too biased. Why don’t you come here to take a look? Our Harry Winston isn’t inferior to them.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll go to your shop after I’m done here.”
“Then we’ll wait for you.”
As he nodded with a smile, Lin Yi felt like he wasn’t just wandering around a mall, but instead, exploring like an adventurer.
Van Cleef was one of the world’s top jewelry brands. Its pricing was not friendly at all.
Most ordinary bosses would only come here to just look at through the window. The prices of the goods inside were not something they could afford.
However, in an international metropolis like Zhonghai, there had never been a lack of rich people.
Coupled with the fact that Christmas was approaching, there were more people coming here to buy things, but most of them were men.
However, they scratched their heads as they read the labels. The unspoken message in their hearts was very similar.
‘What should I buy?’
After welcoming Lin Yi in, the female shop assistant asked with a red face,
“Sir, are you choosing a gift for your girlfriend?”
“Clever.”
“Recently, there have been two news products in our shop. You can come and take a look at them.”
“Sure.”
If it weren’t for Lin Yi’s difficulties in choosing a gift, he would have finished shopping a long time ago.
The female shop assistant brought Lin Yi to the inner side of the counter and said gently,
...
“Sir, this platinum version of the four-leaf clover bracelet is a special Christmas model launched by Van Cleef & Arpels, and it’s for sale in limited quantities. There are only 20 sets in the entire Zhonghai. Now, eight sets have been sold. You can take a look.”
“18 million is a little expensive,” Lin Yi muttered, “But the style is quite nice. If it’s expensive, so be it. I’ll take this.”
“Um…”
Everyone in the shop looked at Lin Yi in surprise.
“Why are you all looking at me like that? Am I not qualified to buy it? Do I still have to make an appointment?”
“No, that’s not it…”
The female shop assistant stuttered, “Sir, you’re mistaken. It’s not 18 million, it’s 1.8 million.”
“So it’s 1.8 million yuan. Then there’s nothing to hesitate about. I’ll take it.”
The surrounding people were secretly shocked. Where did this rich second-generation heir come from?
He even dared to buy jewelry worth 18 million yuan?
“S-Sir, do you want to swipe your card or pay in cash?” The female shop assistant probed.
...
“Don’t worry, I want to buy another one,” Lin Yi said, “Didn’t you say that there’s a new item? Where is it?”
“You still want to buy another one?” The female shop assistant paused for a moment. “Sir, as a professional salesperson, I actually recommend that you buy only one gift for Christmas. If you buy more, it will affect you…”
“Are you trying to say that if you buy a bunch of them, I’ll look like a nouveau riche?”
“I-I didn’t mean that. After all, rare things are precious.”
“You’re not wrong about that. The main reason for this is that there’s more than one person I need to buy a gift for. No matter what, I have to treat them equally.”
“Huh?”
The men in the shop all looked at Lin Yi enviously.
Two at once?!
What a f*cking blessing!
“Sir, this way please.” The female shop assistant welcomed Lin Yi to another counter. “This is the new Zhenzhi series pendant. It’s the final design of this series. It’s priced at 1.98 million.”
“Alright, I’ll take these two. Pack them up. I still have a 30% discount membership card. Help me calculate how much it costs.”
The shop assistant wasn’t too surprised to see Lin Yi’s diamond membership card.
He had spent nearly four million yuan on some accessories. It was only natural that he had a diamond membership card here.
“Hey, buddy, you got two girlfriends at once. Amazing.”
Just as Lin Yi was waiting to swipe his card, a middle-aged man said.
“It’s alright. As long as you learn time management, you can be like me.”
“It’s obvious that he’s experienced in love. He must have amazing judgement.”
“It’s most likely talent.”
“Then can I ask you something?”
Lin Yi looked at the middle-aged man’s hand and said, “Have you decided on a gift? What else do you want to ask?”
“It’s not about choosing a gift. It’s just that there’s a problem that has been bothering me recently.” The middle-aged man scratched his head and said,
“Don’t they say that women are like wolves at thirty and tigers at forty? But my female tiger is so gentle, why is that?”
Hehehe…
Lin Yi patted the middle-aged man’s shoulder earnestly.
“There’s no such thing as a peaceful life. It’s just that someone else is carrying the burden for you.”
