Then, under everyone's startled gazes, he walked over to the rack.
He took down all the clothes and bags Jiang Xiaoyu had just tried on.
Seeing this, a sales assistant immediately followed him.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
Although she addressed him politely, those few words were full of suspicion and disdain.
"Shopping, of course."
At his answer, the sales assistants' expressions turned strange.
Jiang Xiaoyu froze too, because she knew everything Qin Feng was holding was something she had just tried on.
"Qin Feng, what are you doing? Those clothes are really expensive."
Hearing Jiang Xiaoyu's words, the sales assistants immediately felt certain their suspicions were right.
"Sir, this young lady is right. Those clothes and bags you're holding come to several hundred thousand yuan."
If Qin Feng hadn't heard their earlier whispered conversation...
He might not have found anything wrong with what she said.
After all, she was offering a helpful reminder so very "respectfully."
But...
Now, those words sounded especially grating to Qin Feng.
Suddenly, another sales assistant walked over.
She held out both hands, ready to take the clothes and bags from Qin Feng.
"Sir, since you're buying them, let me wrap them up for you. Please come this way to pay!"
Jiang Xiaoyu hurriedly waved her hands.
"Sorry, he's joking. I'm not buying them."
"Sorry for the trouble, but please put them back. Thank you!"
Jiang Xiaoyu wasn't deliberately putting on an act.
She simply felt that she was still a student.
There was absolutely no need to buy such extravagant things.
Besides, she only got so much spending money each month.
She had spent all her previous savings buying Pokémon.
How long would she have to save to afford several hundred thousand yuan's worth of clothes and bags?
She couldn't possibly spend Qin Feng's money on them, either.
That went against her values.
She had originally assumed that Qin Feng treating them meant nothing more than buying them a meal.
Shopping had never crossed her mind.
Bai Xiyue seemed to understand what Jiang Xiaoyu was thinking and said nothing more.
After all, everyone had different ways of thinking and different values.
There was no need to force everyone to agree with her views.
Jiang Xiaoyu's words, however, clearly made the sales assistants impatient.
"Our bags and clothes are all very expensive. Taking them down like this can easily damage them. If they get damaged, even a year's salary wouldn't cover it!"
Just as the sales assistant was about to put the clothes back...
Something unexpected happened!
Qin Feng pulled out an ordinary China Construction Bank card and handed it over!
Then he said calmly:
"I told you, Young Master Qin is paying for everything tonight!"
With that, he smiled at Jiang Xiaoyu and Bai Xiyue.
The sales assistant took the card in surprise.
Then she carried the clothes and bags to the counter to ring them up.
"These clothes and bags come to nearly a million yuan. Did he not hear the price properly?"
The cashier examined the ordinary bank card in her hand. "If he really had money, surely he wouldn't be using this kind of card?"
"If he's messing with us, I'm definitely going to give him an earful. I'm not putting up with that!"
"I despise people like that. Living off a woman, yet still pretending to be rich!"
Qin Feng and the two women waited in the seating area.
Jiang Xiaoyu clearly felt none of the joy of shopping. Instead, anxiety was written all over her face.
"Qin Feng, it'll take me ages to pay you back that much money."
Her words surprised both Qin Feng and Bai Xiyue.
"But do you like them?" Qin Feng asked.
Jiang Xiaoyu nodded hesitantly. "I do, but liking something doesn't mean I have to own it!"
"I'm not rich like Sister Yue."
Bai Xiyue didn't interrupt, since their circumstances were different.
Anything she said now might lead to a misunderstanding.
So keeping quiet was the wisest choice.
Still, Jiang Xiaoyu's personality really did put her at ease.
She wasn't aloof or pretentious, she appreciated kindness and repaid it, and sometimes she was a little goofy.
Perhaps that was why the two of them had become close friends so quickly.
Even though their personalities were completely different.
"Then let your boss be generous for once. You don't have to pay me back. Consider it my thanks for all your support. You're my customer number 001, after all," Qin Feng said with a smile.
Jiang Xiaoyu pressed her lips together. "But I only spent a little over a hundred thousand on my Pokémon. These clothes and bags cost several hundred thousand."
Just then...
The sales assistant from earlier walked over and said in a slightly off tone:
"Sir, your card requires a PIN. You'll need to enter it."
With that, she turned and left.
Qin Feng walked over to the checkout counter.
The cashier pointed at the POS Terminal.
"Enter your PIN."
Suddenly, as if something had occurred to him, Qin Feng asked, "Do you have any bags suitable for middle-aged people?"
The sales assistant paused. "Of course, but they're not cheap either."
Qin Feng smiled. "Then pick out the two most expensive ones for me."
At those words, both the sales assistant and the cashier were stunned.
The most expensive ones?
The most expensive bag here cost several hundred thousand yuan on its own.
Was he sure he wasn't joking?
"And bring over men's leather shoes, belts, and anything else that doesn't require taking measurements."
"Oh, and don't bother with the cheap ones."
Although Qin Feng kept talking...
None of the sales assistants moved.
Those bags were so expensive that they normally weren't handled casually.
Even a single fingernail mark would greatly reduce their value.
The cashier pointed at the POS Terminal and said:
"Sir, please pay for these items first. The total is 983,000 yuan."
Qin Feng inwardly clicked his tongue.
The way rich people lived was fucking ridiculous.
Qin Feng placed his fingers on the POS Terminal.
The sales assistants craned their necks and held their breath.
A moment later...
[Payment successful: ￥-983000]
Every employee drew in a sharp breath.
"What about the things I just asked for?"
"If you're not selling them, I'll leave."
Coming to their senses, all the sales assistants immediately bowed respectfully at ninety degrees.
"Sir, we're terribly sorry. We'll get them for you right away."
"Please give us a moment!"
The cashier dropped her contemptuous look as well.
Her face was now wreathed in smiles.
She bowed and returned the card to Qin Feng with both hands.
Qin Feng brought the wrapped clothes over to Jiang Xiaoyu and Bai Xiyue.
Pointing at the two beauties, he declared solemnly:
"I'm warning you both. If either of you calls me a cheapskate again, I'll get angry!"
"And I mean I'll turn on you in a heartbeat!"
Bai Xiyue rolled her eyes. "Oh, please. You're the boss. Looking after your subordinates is what you're supposed to do!"
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoyu was utterly confused.
Subordinates?
When had they become boss and employee?
Bai Xiyue was Qin Feng's subordinate?
It was all so strange that she couldn't make sense of it.
Just then...
Four or five sales assistants came hurrying toward Qin Feng and the others, their faces alight with excitement as they carried assorted shoes, bags, belts, and silk scarves.
At the sight, the corners of Qin Feng's mouth lifted slightly.
