Mysterious Big Shot

"Hahaha, what an idiot. He actually said he wanted to buy everything at the counter."

"Doesn't he know how much everything at this counter is worth combined?"

"Those dozen or so globally limited-edition outfits and women's bags alone cost at least tens of millions. He actually said he'd buy them all—who does he think he is?"

When Young Master Liu and the others heard Lin Chen say that, they all burst into wild laughter.

It was not just them. Even the people who had originally been watching and worrying about Lin Chen began to feel dissatisfied with him after hearing those words.

Naturally, the most displeased were the sales associates at the Louis Vuitton LV counter.

When they heard that, their expressions changed completely.

At the same time, any goodwill they had felt toward Lin Chen instantly vanished.

"What is wrong with this guy? We helped him so much and even let him try things on for free without looking down on him, yet now he's making fun of us."

"Exactly. I originally thought he was handsome and had a good temperament, but it turns out you really can't judge a person by their appearance."

"That's right. For someone so heartless, we should have known better than to help him. We should have let him fend for himself."

"Hmph, and we were even worried about him just now. Looks like it was all unnecessary."

Seeing the shift in the sales associates' and the crowd's expressions, Lin Chen was not angry. Instead, he merely smiled calmly.

Come to think of it, he could only blame himself. With what he had been wearing earlier, then suddenly claiming that he wanted to buy all the clothes at the Louis Vuitton LV counter—

Anyone would probably have found it hard to believe and might even have thought he was causing trouble.

It was no wonder they were so upset, and why their attitudes had changed so drastically.

"Heh... I didn't think things through just now."

"Here, take this card. Go ahead and swipe it."

"Since I, Lin Chen, said I would buy all the clothes and bags at this counter, I naturally won't go back on my word."

With that, Lin Chen took out his ICBC bank card from his pocket and handed it to the beautiful sales associate, Xiao Xu.

"This..."

Xiao Xu was stunned for a moment when she saw the bank card Lin Chen handed over.

But after a moment, she accepted it anyway.

Although what he said was difficult to believe, he had taken out his card, so she had to accept it.

After all, that was basic courtesy.

Besides, everything before had only been speculation. There was still no proof as to whether the handsome Lin Chen before her was actually poor.

"Forget it. Since he's being so straightforward, we sales associates can't fall behind either."

"Maybe there really is money on this card?"

With hope in her heart, Xiao Xu took the card straight to the cashier's desk. She expertly picked up the POS machine and prepared to swipe it.

The other sales associates, who had been watching all along, frowned when they saw the ordinary ICBC bank card in Xiao Xu's hand, but they did not object.

Still, none of them held much hope that Lin Chen could afford Louis Vuitton LV.

After all, if he truly could buy everything at the counter, then given his wealth, his ICBC card should at least have been a gold card or diamond card.

But the card before them was clearly an utterly ordinary bank card.

It had no privileges whatsoever and could only be used for the most ordinary deposits and withdrawals, just like everyone else's.

"Hm?"

Young Master Liu, who had been watching Lin Chen from across the way, raised his brows when he saw him actually take out a bank card.

But when he saw that it was just an ordinary ICBC bank card, he immediately sneered again.

"He really won't give up until he sees the coffin."

"That ordinary ICBC card isn't even as good as mine, yet he dares claim he'll buy the entire Louis Vuitton LV counter?"

"What a ridiculous joke."

"Kid, this is your last chance. If your card gets declined later, just wait and see how I deal with you."

Young Master Liu glared at Lin Chen with a dark expression, viciously muttering to himself.

However, not long after he had that thought, a rapid clattering sound came from the cashier's desk.

Everyone instinctively turned their heads and saw that the POS machine in Xiao Xu's hands was continuously spitting out receipts.

"Clack, clack, clack—"

The sound of the POS machine printing receipts was soft, but to everyone present, it sounded as deafening as a nuclear explosion.

The moment they saw that scene, an uproar erupted throughout the counter, followed by sharp gasps.

"H-How is this possible?!"

"That handsome guy named Lin Chen actually paid successfully? And he really bought the entire Louis Vuitton LV counter?"

At that moment, everyone's scalps went numb.

Although their family backgrounds were not particularly impressive and they were not especially wealthy, none of them were fools. On the contrary, they were all quite clever.

When they saw what was happening before them, each of them formed their own thoughts.

And every one of those thoughts was a guess at just how terrifying Lin Chen's background truly was.

Buying all the merchandise at an entire Louis Vuitton LV counter with such casual ease—what kind of dominance was that?

Even Zhonghai's top Super Tycoons probably would not dare spend money like that in a single purchase.

For a moment, the bystanders all changed sides and looked toward Young Master Liu in the distance with expressions of eager anticipation.

"H-How is this possible?!"

"Wasn't this kid a poor loser? How could his card actually go through?"

"That was a full one hundred million!"

Young Master Liu had long since lost his previous high spirits. All that remained was boundless fear and despair.

His once rosy face had turned deathly pale from fright.

He had never imagined that this poor loser, dressed in what looked like shabby street-vendor clothes, would actually be a mysterious big shot.

Thinking of all the mockery he had directed at him before, Young Master Liu could no longer suppress his fear. His legs gave out, and he collapsed to the ground.

At the same time, his body began trembling uncontrollably.

Young Master Liu's female companion was no different.

When she saw that Lin Chen could buy all the merchandise at the Louis Vuitton LV counter in one go, she too collapsed to the floor in terror.

"It's over. This time, it's really over."

Seeing Lin Chen looking at him with a faint smile, Young Master Liu truly regretted everything.

He regretted losing his mind and provoking such an untouchable figure.

If time could be turned back, he would never have offended such a mysterious big shot.

But how could time possibly listen to him...

"Did... did the payment really go through?"

The sales associates also widened their eyes in disbelief when they saw the POS machine printing receipts.

Along with their disbelief came overwhelming joy.

After all, the Super Tycoon before them, Lin Chen, had bought all the merchandise at the entire Louis Vuitton LV counter.

The total value of those goods was a full one hundred million.

Although the transaction had been completed through Xiao Xu alone, their brand's commission policy distributed commissions evenly according to the store's total sales.

In other words, every sales associate at this Louis Vuitton LV counter would get to share in this joy.

Once the one hundred million was divided up, each of them would receive at least a seven-figure commission.

How could they not be thrilled beyond measure?
