Chapter 50: Two Hundred Thousand? That’s Enough to Marry Me Already!
“Got it, Young Master Mo. We’ll send a manager over right away.”
“Mm, make it quick.”
After giving his instructions, Mo Ziyang hung up the phone.
Then, after paying the bill, he walked over to Lin Muxi, who had been standing at the entrance daydreaming.
“Mm… you’re here.”
When she saw her close friend come over, Lin Muxi lifted her small head. Her clear eyes met Mo Ziyang’s gaze.
“What are you looking at?”
“Ah… n-nothing.”
Sensing a bit of nervousness from her, Mo Ziyang followed the direction of her gaze. That was when he noticed it was a watch shop.
Looking at the time, he figured the mall manager would take a while to arrive anyway, so he held Lin Muxi’s hand and walked over.
“Hey… what are you doing? I can’t afford that kind of thing.”
Being suddenly pulled along, Lin Muxi quickly explained, embarrassed that her thoughts had been guessed.
“It’s fine. We can just take a look. Anyway, we still need to wait for the mall manager.”
And so, the two of them, one tall and one small, walked into the shop together.
At that moment, inside the shop, two receptionists were helping a wealthy-looking woman pick a watch.
Yes… Lin Muxi might not know, but Mo Ziyang was very clear, this was a luxury watch store.
Still, knowing his grandfather’s personality, if he just said it was something Lin Muxi wanted, there was no way his grandfather would stop him.
So as long as the money was spent on her, it didn’t matter how much was spent.
“Ahem.”
Seeing that none of the receptionists paid them any attention, Mo Ziyang deliberately cleared his throat loudly.
“Ah, sir, yes, coming right away.”
Finally, one receptionist reacted, hurrying over to them.
But when she saw that both of them looked like students, her face immediately showed disappointment.
After all, if she couldn’t sell a watch, she wouldn’t get any commission. Wouldn’t that mean she worked for nothing?
So the professional smile on her face quickly turned into one of disdain.
She then made an excuse to leave.
“Please wait a moment. I’ll call someone to help you.”
She rushed into a small back room, then pulled out another young shop assistant who looked about the same age as Mo Ziyang and Lin Muxi.
Mo Ziyang and Lin Muxi had seen her attitude clearly.
They weren’t stupid, it was obvious she was treating them differently.
Unfortunately for her, today she had run into Mo Ziyang, so she was bound to suffer a little for it.
“Maybe we should just leave… let’s not look anymore.”
Unlike Mo Ziyang, who didn’t really care, the socially anxious Lin Muxi immediately felt like backing out.
“Leave? No way.” Mo Ziyang gently patted her, telling her not to be afraid.
“This is our new intern shop assistant. Let her introduce the watches to you.”
After the receptionist made the introduction, she gave the intern a quick look, then hurried back to serve the wealthy woman with great enthusiasm.
“What’s going on with your store? You let anyone come in to look around?”
The wealthy woman sneered at them from the side, her eyes filled with contempt as if she really looked down on these two “poor kids.”
“Well… there are always people who’ve never seen things like this before.”
“Let’s keep looking at this watch here. Ignore them…”
Seeing that her customer’s mood had been disturbed, the receptionist quickly tried to calm her down so she wouldn’t lose the sale.
“Ugh… what a pair of blind eyes.”
Being treated with such arrogance made Mo Ziyang furious.
“Um… sir, please don’t be angry. I’ll help introduce the watches to you.”
The intern assistant saw that Mo Ziyang was upset and quickly stepped forward to calm him.
“It’s fine.” Mo Ziyang waved his hand, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down.
Even Lin Muxi beside him squeezed his hand a little tighter, showing her worry.
“Then, sir, which watch do you like? I’ll bring it out for you to see.” The intern asked again once he seemed calmer.
“You should ask her. I’m just here to keep her company.” Mo Ziyang glanced at Lin Muxi with his eyes.
“Ah… then this… young lady?”
“Ah? I… I… I want to look at that one.”
Being suddenly called on, Lin Muxi froze for a moment, then nervously pointed at a rose-gold watch inside the display case.
“This…” The salesgirl suddenly looked troubled.
After all, she was only an intern, and she wasn’t allowed to handle such an expensive watch.
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem?” Mo Ziyang raised his eyebrows and asked.
“I… I’ll try.”
The salesgirl then hurried over to the two receptionists at the counter and explained the situation.
One of the receptionists immediately walked over to the two of them.
“Sir, this watch is too expensive, so we can’t let you try it on.”
With a disdainful tone, the receptionist explained, clearly wanting to get rid of the two “troublemakers.”
“Huh? But didn’t the boss say…”
“Say what? I’m the manager here. If you don’t like it, then leave.”
The salesgirl originally wanted to say that the boss told them to let customers try on anything, but before she could finish, the receptionist cut her off harshly.
“Oh? I’m curious, what do you mean by expensive?” Mo Ziyang gave her a look like he was watching a clown.
“200,000 yuan. If you don’t have money, then get out and stop disturbing our business.”
Hearing this, even a wealthy-looking lady nearby frowned and shook her head, joining in.
“Young man, you don’t have money but still want to show off in front of your girlfriend? Don’t you know that none of the watches here cost less than 50,000?”
After mocking them, she waved at the receptionist, signaling her not to waste time on these two kids.
“You, wrap it up. I’ll pay. Bring the POS machine.”
“Huh?”
The salesgirl who was suddenly called on looked at Mo Ziyang in shock.
Her eyes were full of disbelief.
Could this handsome guy really be some rich second-generation heir?
But… he looked about the same age as her.
Why… why was the difference between people so big?!
“I said, bring the POS machine. I’ll pay.”
Seeing her still frozen, Mo Ziyang urged her.
“Oh, okay, okay…”
The salesgirl quickly grabbed the POS machine from the counter and placed it in front of him.
Meanwhile, the two receptionists and the rich lady also came closer, eager to watch him embarrass himself.
“Young man, if you want to act cool in front of your girlfriend, this isn’t the way to do it.”
“Yeah, in this world, what matters is strength and background…”
But before they could finish mocking, Mo Ziyang swiped his card.
A mechanical voice came from the POS machine:
“Payment successful: 200,000 yuan.”
The entire store suddenly went silent.
Except for Mo Ziyang, everyone’s faces were full of disbelief.
“Two… two… two hundred thousand…”
Lin Muxi’s mouth hung wide open. She didn’t even know what to say.
The two receptionists and the rich lady stared at him as if they were looking at a monster.
Most bank cards had transaction limits. A card that allowed such a huge purchase without limits only belonged to people with serious wealth and power.
And the one in Mo Ziyang’s hand looked like an unlimited black card.
Even the intern salesgirl, with trembling hands, unlocked the display case and carefully took out the watch.
She then prepared to pack it into a bag…
“Mo Ziyang, are you crazy?! You just spent 200,000 like it’s nothing?”
Finally reacting, Lin Muxi’s eyes went wide as she grabbed Mo Ziyang’s shirt and shook him.
What kind of person was this?!
Spending 200,000 so casually, she would rather he give the money to her!
That kind of money was enough to marry her already!
“Don’t pack it. Just put it directly on her wrist.”
But then, Mo Ziyang’s next words left her completely stunned.
“Huh?”
