“Brother-in-law?”
As expected, upon hearing the introduction of “brother-in-law,” disappointment flashed in the eyes of the two young girls.
They then turned to look at Meng Yuyu and Liu Meiyu, wanting to ask who was Su Yuqing’s sister.
At this moment, Meng Yuyu took the initiative to speak, “You all are Yuqing’s roommates, right?”
“I’m Yuqing’s cousin. Just like Yuqing, you can call me Yuyu.”
“Okay, Yuyu, nice to meet you!”
The two girls greeted her immediately.
After hearing the conversation between the two parties, Du Chen beside them had clarified the relationship between Yang Hao and the three women.
One was the girlfriend, another was the younger aunt, and the last one seemed unrelated.
No wonder she was the only one who greeted me just now.
Instantly, Du Chen’s gaze shifted to Liu Meiyu, feeling that he could make an effort. Her beauty and figure weren’t much different from Su Yuqing’s cousin; they were both exceptionally gorgeous women!
“How should I address you, beautiful?”
“Since we’ve met, it’s fate. Let’s shop together.”
Du Chen moved closer to Liu Meiyu, saying with a sly grin.
“Let’s not shop together.”
“Can’t you see I’m with my friend?”
Liu Meiyu slightly pursed her lips and then linked arms with Yang Hao.
Huh?
Damn!!
Isn’t he Su Yuqing’s brother-in-law??
Seeing this gesture, Du Chen was suddenly dumbfounded. He looked at Liu Meiyu with a puzzled face, then at Yang Hao.
The latter was completely calm, not even trying to avoid the movement.
Du Chen then looked towards Meng Yuyu, who was talking with Tao Ying and Han Xiaoru, acting as if she hadn’t seen Liu Meiyu’s subtle action!
Damn, don’t you see someone hooking up with your boyfriend??
Du Chen’s eyes widened even more.
This Jiangcheng Art College’s Casanova was directly shocked!
Could it be that this guy was dating two women at once, and they both approved of each other’s presence??
Holy shit!!
Isn’t this the life of my dreams?
He had actually achieved it!
Please, teach me!
No matter the cost, I’ll buy it!!
Du Chen’s look towards Yang Hao had changed from previous hostility to utter admiration!
At Jiangcheng Art College, people said he was the Casanova, but compared to this guy, he was just a little brother!
Not even a little brother, really!
While Du Chen was in shock, the ladies had already walked into the store, where the saleswoman who had just befriended Du Chen was passionately introducing new arrivals.
The Hermès sales staff were quite adept at assessing customers: they could nearly always tell which customers could afford to splurge and which couldn’t at just a glance.
And those “looking down on people” scenarios you find in certain novels scarcely ever happen; these luxury store clerks are rigorously trained, and even if they know you won’t buy, their service attitude remains gracious.
When encountering a potential big-spending customer, they are just more enthusiastic.
So, the distinction lies merely between enthusiasm and extra enthusiasm.
“Yuqing, with such wealthy relatives like your cousin and brother-in-law, how come you never mentioned them before?”
“Yuqing, what does your brother-in-law do? He’s so handsome! Even more so than the domineering CEOs in TV dramas!”
Tao Ying and Han Xiaoru, who initially intended to leave, now followed back into the store. They flanked Su Yuqing on both sides and waited for Meng Yuyu and Liu Meiyu to follow the clerk to the new products area before they hastened to “interrogate” Su Yuqing.
“I’m meeting this brother-in-law for the first time too. I heard from Yuyu that he seems to own several companies. I’m not clear on the specifics,” Su Yuqing answered her roommates’ questions truthfully.
“So, this is your first time meeting your brother-in-law too, huh?”
“He hasn’t been with your cousin for long then?”
Han Xiaoru’s eyes lit up slightly. In truth, she didn’t fancy older men and usually went for young, fresh-looking boyfriends, but after seeing Yang Hao, she thought older men could be quite appealing, too.
“They’ve been together for quite a while, I think.”
The innocent Su Yuqing didn’t catch her roommate’s drift and seriously pondered before answering the question.
“Miss, this bag suits you well.”
“Would you like to try it on…”
The three girls were chatting away, and without realizing it, they had arrived at the bags section. Su Yuqing was standing in front of a light pink bag when the friendly clerk beside her immediately asked with a smile.
“Uh, no thanks!”
Su Yuqing shook her head nervously; after all, this was Hermès, where just any bag could cost tens of thousands. She dared not try any.
“`
“`
“Give it a try, I think it looks really good!”
Han Xiaoru nudged Su Yuqing’s arm lightly with her elbow. In fact, she had tried on the bag earlier. Although it wasn’t one of those highly popular styles, it still had a price tag of 68,000 yuan, which was beyond Han Xiaoru’s spending limits, as she only got twenty to thirty thousand yuan for living expenses each month.
“Both Xiaoru and I really like this bag, but it’s a bit expensive,” she said.
“But Yuqing, you have a brother-in-law, and he’s so rich, he’ll definitely buy it for you!”
Tao Ying whispered into Su Yuqing’s ear.
Upon hearing her words, Su Yuqing remembered what her brother-in-law had said when he went upstairs, that he would pay for today’s expenses.
However, Su Yuqing was not the kind of person who liked to take advantage of others. So, even though her brother-in-law had said such a thing, she had no intention of actually buying anything, let alone such an expensive bag.
Just as she was hesitating, Yang Hao came over with a smile on his face.
“Do you like this bag?”
Yang Hao pointed to the pink bag and asked.
“Uh?”
“No…”
Su Yuqing didn’t know how to answer, pausing for a moment before she quickly shook her head.
“Sir, this bag really suits the lady very well.”
“The lady’s skin is so fair and she’s young, this light pink color is just perfect.”
The sales assistant had already realized that Yang Hao was the one with the money and took the opportunity to passionately introduce the product.
“I see there are three colors, right?”
Yang Hao pointed to the display that had three versions of the bag in light pink, white, and black.
“Yes, sir.”
“If you need other colors, we can also do a custom order, but it will take a bit longer, adding 18,000 yuan!”
The sales assistant introduced with a smile.
“Let’s do this,” he said.
“One of each color.”
“Yuqing, you can switch between them!”
Yang Hao waved his hand with a smile.
“Huh?”
After hearing Yang Hao’s words, Su Yuqing was completely stunned. Her roommates Tao Ying and Han Xiaoru were also shocked, their mouths agape.
Both had noticed that Yang Hao was wealthy and thought that Su Yuqing’s brother-in-law might splurge on her, buying a bag or something.
But neither of them had expected this handsome uncle to be so extravagantly generous!
One of the same style bag in every color, for her to switch between!
“Okay!”
“I will wrap them up for the lady right away!”
The sales assistant was momentarily stunned, then her face broke into a beaming smile. She was an Hermès salesperson, after all, accustomed to high spenders, though there weren’t many like Yang Hao who bought bags this way. But the three bags together came to just over two hundred thousand, which wasn’t too shocking for her.
“Yang, let’s not do this,” Su Yuqing said.
“It’s… too expensive!”
Su Yuqing was indeed taken aback. Three bags amounted to over two hundred thousand yuan, which was outrageously expensive!
And the thought of carrying a 68,000 yuan bag made her feel uneasy!
“Yuqing, you don’t understand this,” he said.
“An expensive item has its value, and bags can be carried for years, even decades with no problem.”
“Right, right. And you don’t realize, Yuqing, that Hermès bags are not just for carrying, they also have a social value!”
Without needing Yang Hao to say anything, Han Xiaoru and Tao Ying began to coax her.
Both had their own little schemes. With three bags of the same style, Su Yuqing couldn’t possibly carry all of them, so it wouldn’t be excessive for good sisters to borrow and wear them, right?
Before today, both had seen Su Yuqing as just a regular roommate, but from this moment on, she became a close sister to them!
“Sir, shall I go ahead and make the invoice?”
The sales assistant asked, seizing the moment.
“Yes, go ahead!”
Yang Hao waved his hand nonchalantly, then turned to Tao Ying and Han Xiaoru and said, “You both are Yuqing’s roommates. How about this: each of you pick something you like from the store as a gift from me, as a gesture for our first meeting. And do take care of Yuqing in the future!”
The two girls “considerately” helped persuade her, and Yang Hao, not being stingy, decided to give them a gift as well.
After all, the target demographic for this job was women, and spending on women came with a fivefold cashback, so giving gifts to Tao Ying and Han Xiaoru was also a way for him to earn money.
“What?”
“Really?”
Upon hearing Yang Hao’s words, Tao Ying and Han Xiaoru could not help but exclaim in surprise.
This was an Hermès store!
To think they were allowed to freely pick out gifts—even though they knew this handsome uncle was rich, they couldn’t imagine he would be so lavishly generous.
