Chapter 199 The 40 Yuan Package
Lujiazui, Global Business Center.
As the most prestigious luxury goods hub in China and even the entire country, this place brings together all the world's top brands.
When the all-black Maybach S-Class smoothly came to a stop in front of the Hermès boutique, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The doorman, dressed in a crisp uniform, hurried over and respectfully opened the back door of the car.
Ning Xiuyang got out of the car first, followed by Bai Xiaoji and Wu Xingyao.
Bai Xiaoji was still in a daze.
She gripped the Maybach car key tightly in her hand, her palms turning white from the force, the touch cold yet real.
A luxury car worth three million was given away just like that.
This realization made her feel as if she were dreaming.
Looking at Ning Xiuyang's calm and composed profile, her heart was in turmoil.
This guy is no longer the poor boy who needed to rely on himself and hesitated for a long time before buying a new piece of clothing.
He really... became rich.
Moreover, it was more developed than she had ever imagined.
The resentment and jealousy that had been building up all night seemed so pale and powerless in the face of absolute financial dominance.
"Let's go, sis, didn't you want to go shopping?"
Ning Xiuyang seemed oblivious to her complicated expression, greeted her with a smile, and walked into the Hermès store first.
Bai Xiaoji bit her lip, took a deep breath, and followed her inside.
Wu Xingyao and Qian Baobao followed closely behind like two little followers.
The store is decorated in a luxurious and elegant style, with the air filled with the scent of fine leather and perfume.
A sales consultant with impeccable makeup and a capable demeanor immediately came forward. When her gaze swept over Ning Xiuyang and his group, especially when she saw the Maybach key in Bai Xiaoji's hand, her smile instantly became incredibly sincere and enthusiastic.
"Good afternoon, sir/madam. Welcome to Hermès. How may I help you?"
"Just browsing," Ning Xiuyang said casually.
"Okay, please feel free. I'm Cici, the sales director of this store. Please feel free to call me anytime if you need anything." Cici maintained just the right arm's length distance, neither appearing overly enthusiastic nor lacking the ability to provide service at any time.
Ning Xiuyang's gaze swept around the store and finally landed on a bag in the glass display case.
It was a Birkin 30 made of crocodile skin, in the Himalayan color scheme, shimmering with a gradient under the light, like the sacred luster of a snow-capped mountain peak.
"Sis, how about this?" He pointed to the bag.
Bai Xiaoji looked in the direction he pointed, and her breath hitched.
Hermès Himalayas!
This is the ultimate dream in the world of handbags, a legendary existence!
She had only seen it in magazines and online before; it was said that you couldn't buy it even if you had money, and it was a symbol of status and prestige.
"This... is too exaggerated." Bai Xiaoji subconsciously shook her head, but couldn't help taking a second look.
No woman can resist the allure of the Himalayas.
"Cici, take that bag out and let me see it," Ning Xiuyang said directly to the sales director.
Cici's eyes lit up instantly, but she still smiled apologetically and said, "Sir, I'm very sorry, this Himalaya is our store's prized possession and is not for sale; it's mainly for display."
"Not for sale?" Ning Xiuyang raised an eyebrow.
"However," Cici changed the subject, leading them to another display case, "we just happened to get a limited edition Kelly 25 today, it's box leather with a milkshake white gold clasp, it's very beautiful and rare, and it suits this lady's temperament very well."
Bai Xiaoji's gaze was drawn to the pristine white Kelly bag.
Milkshake white, gentle and sophisticated, with gold clasps that gleam under the light, a classic and elegant design.
She really liked it.
"Do you like it?" Ning Xiuyang saw the longing in her eyes.
"It's...it's alright," Bai Xiaoji said, feigning modesty, but her eyes betrayed her.
"Then this one will do."
Ning Xiuyang said to Cici, "Wrap it up."
Cici's smile widened, but she still professionally reminded him, "Sir, the price of this bag is 199999 yuan. Also, because it's a limited edition made of rare leather, according to our store's regulations, it needs to be purchased with some other items."
"Pairing with other items?" Bai Xiaoji was taken aback. She had heard of Hermès' rules, but she didn't expect them to be so direct.
"Yes, it will probably require a 1:1 ratio of goods," Cici explained with a smile. "You can choose some scarves, accessories, or ready-to-wear and home goods from our store."
A 1:1 matching ratio means that buying this 200,000 bag will cost you nearly 400,000 in total!
"It's too expensive, I don't want it."
Bai Xiaoji immediately tugged at Ning Xiuyang's sleeve and whispered.
Although she liked it, she wasn't extravagant enough to spend 400,000 yuan on a bag.
That money is enough to buy a house in their hometown county.
It's even fully furnished!
Ning Xiuyang seemed not to hear her words, but simply looked at her and asked earnestly, "Sister, I'm just asking you, do you like it?"
His gaze was deep and focused, making Bai Xiaoji's heart skip a beat.
She bit her lip and, under that gaze, nodded as if possessed.
"If you like it, that's fine."
Ning Xiuyang smiled.
He turned to Cici, who was grinning from ear to ear, and said, "No need to match anything. Just gather enough for me to buy 400,000 worth of things—scarves, bracelets, perfumes, whatever you like. Give them to these two... um, assistants."
He pointed to Wu Xingyao and Qian Baobao, who were staring in disbelief.
Wu Xingyao and Qian Baobao were instantly flattered and waved their hands repeatedly.
"Boss, you don't need to give me any..."
"Brother Yang, this is too precious..."
"It's settled then." Ning Xiuyang made the final decision, leaving no room for argument.
He took a black bank card out of his wallet and handed it to Cici.
"Swipe your card."
The entire process was fluid and effortless, both domineering and casual.
Bai Xiaoji stood there, watching Ning Xiuyang's extravagant and carefree attitude. The resistance she felt because of the price was instantly replaced by an indescribable feeling of being pampered and sweet.
This man satisfied all her vanity as a woman in the simplest and most brutal way.
She scolded him for wasting money, but in her heart, she was overjoyed.
The resentment he felt because of the other women around him seemed to dissipate most of it at this moment.
Holding the beautifully packaged orange box, Bai Xiaoji felt as if she were walking on clouds, light and airy, almost unreal.
So this is what it feels like to be showered with money by someone you like...
As Bai Xiaoji walked out of the store carrying her orange Hermès shopping bag, her mood was completely different from when she first arrived.
She held the box containing the Kelly bag as if it were a priceless treasure, and the smile on her lips was impossible to suppress.
