Chapter 003 Your Boyfriend Is So Generous

Seeing the -10 favorability above Lin Shutong's head, Chen Yuan felt a pang of coldness in his heart. A person had liked her for three years. Even if it were a stranger, there should be at least some degree of favorability. But Lin Shutong had no affection for him at all; instead, she even felt disgusted. Over these three years, she had truly regarded Chen Yuan as a long - term meal ticket and had never had the slightest bit of genuine liking for him.

"Chen Yuan, I've chosen the bag. Go pay for it!"

Just then, Xu Lele, who had already picked out a bag, came over and matter - of - factly asked Chen Yuan to pay.

As a seasoned devoted admirer, when a beauty asks you to pay the bill, you must not hesitate in the slightest. In this regard, Chen Yuan was quite up to the mark.

"Okay!"

Chen Yuan took out his black card and walked to the counter.

"Sir, your girlfriend has great taste. The bag she chose is the latest model of this season, but the price is 32,800 yuan."

"No problem. Swipe the card."

When the card - swiping was successful, Lin Shutong was completely confused. Coincidentally, this was the exact bag she had taken a fancy to earlier. Huang Junkai, that rich second - generation guy, hadn't been willing to buy it for her, yet this devoted admirer, Chen Yuan, had bought it without even batting an eye. What was going on? When did this guy become so rich?

At this moment, Chen Yuan noticed that the favorability levels above Xu Lele and Lin Shutong's heads started to rise simultaneously!

Xu Lele: Favorability +20

Xu Lele: Favorability +20

Xu Lele: Favorability +20

Lin Shutong: Favorability +5

Lin Shutong: Favorability +5

Lin Shutong: Favorability +5

Just by buying one bag, the favorability above Xu Lele's head had soared from the original -52 to 8. An 8 - point favorability meant that Xu Lele no longer disliked Chen Yuan; she even had a bit of a favorable impression of him, although it couldn't be said that she liked him very much. Lin Shutong's favorability had also increased from the original -10 to 5. This was the magical effect of the power of money.

"Let's go. See what else you want to buy. I'll get you whatever you want today!" Chen Yuan said calmly as he put away his black card. He actually looked quite handsome in that moment. Even though he was wearing slippers, shorts, and a T - shirt with a messy hair, he exuded an unusual air at this moment.

Carrying the latest Gucci bag, Xu Lele was in a rather cheerful mood. Especially when she saw that another woman who also liked this bag didn't get it while she did, she felt even more delighted!

Xu Lele: Favorability +10

"Honey, you're so nice!"

On an impulse, Xu Lele actually took Chen Yuan's arm and said, "Honey, you're so nice." This woman was quite smart. She clearly sensed the unusual relationship between Chen Yuan and Lin Shutong. By taking Chen Yuan's arm and saying these affectionate words at this moment, she was giving Chen Yuan a lot of face. As the saying goes, "He who accepts a gift from others feels obliged to do something in return." Since she had accepted his gift, she naturally couldn't let him down.

Looking at the coy Xu Lele, Lin Shutong felt a twinge of jealousy for some reason. In her impression, Chen Yuan had always been her devoted admirer. She could summon him when she was happy and send him away when she was unhappy. This man would stick by her side like a loyal dog no matter how she treated him. But now, this dog - like admirer had stopped fawning over her and was turning his attention to someone else? It felt as if her personal possession had been snatched away by someone else. She might not like this thing, but it still made her feel uncomfortable when another woman took it, especially when this woman was no less attractive in terms of looks and figure! She felt even more unbalanced.

"Brother Junkai, look~"

"Shutong, I have something to do tonight. Let's stop shopping for now!"

"But..."

"There's no 'but'. Be a good girl!"

Huang Junkai pulled Lin Shutong out of the Gucci store. On the surface, Huang Junkai drove a luxury car, wore Versace casual clothes, and often boasted about his family giving him over a hundred thousand yuan in living expenses each month. But in fact, this was all just his self - packaging. His luxury car was rented, and his whole outfit was put together by scrimping and saving. He never spent money on chasing girls. His family's financial situation was not bad, but it definitely couldn't be considered wealthy; at most, it was a well - off family. He would post pictures of luxury cars and handsome selfies on his WeChat Moments every day, but in reality, he didn't actually pay anything. Yet, he managed to attract quite a few good - looking girls. It just goes to show that in today's society, sincere feelings often don't last, while tricks and schemes win people's hearts.

"Sister Li, I'm more and more confused these days. You see, those so - called rich second - generation guys who dress all fancy, when it comes to buying gifts for their girlfriends, always come up with all sorts of excuses and推脱 (evade). But those guys who wear street - stall clothes can spend tens of thousands of yuan without hesitation. Could it be that these days, the real rich people like to pretend to be poor?"

"That's why the store manager has taught you not to judge people by their appearance. People often pretend to be what they lack. Those who have no money like to pretend to be rich, and those who are rich like to pretend to be poor. We should treat everyone equally."

"It seems I have to be more careful when looking for a boyfriend in the future. I mustn't be deceived by those fake rich second - generation guys!"

Several female shop assistants were chatting among themselves. Xu Lele also gave Chen Yuan a somewhat puzzled look. Could it be that this guy had been pretending all along and his real identity was actually that of a rich second - generation? Also, the way he had treated all the students to food and drinks at the school supermarket and bought the Gucci bag, the calmness and composure when swiping the card, really didn't seem like an act! If he didn't have some background, such a large - amount consumption would surely make him a bit nervous, right? But Chen Yuan really didn't show any signs of it.

A wealthy family!

Definitely a wealthy family!

Once this thought popped up, Xu Lele's favorability towards Chen Yuan suddenly started to rise rapidly.

Xu Lele: Favorability +10

Xu Lele: Favorability +10

Xu Lele: Favorability +10

Chen Yuan was a bit stunned! He hadn't even done anything yet. Just as he and Xu Lele walked out of the Gucci store, the favorability above her head had increased by another thirty points. Now, Xu Lele's favorability had risen to 48. A 48 - point favorability meant that Xu Lele already somewhat liked him! Could it really be that "bags can cure all ills"? As long as you buy a designer bag for a woman, she'll like you. Damn, this is too amazing, isn't it? If this goes on, it won't be long before Xu Lele's favorability towards him reaches 95. But the money spent so far was too little. Altogether, it was less than a hundred thousand yuan. No, he had to spend more money, otherwise, the bonus when the role - reversal and profit - sharing occurred would be too small.

After a while, Chen Yuan dragged Xu Lele to the Chanel clothing store. He picked out two pieces of clothing from the rack.

"These two."

Xu Lele looked at the clothes in Chen Yuan's hands and frowned.

"But I don't really like these two. They seem a bit old - fashioned."

"I mean these two are not wanted. Wrap up the rest!"

"Um... Sir, are you serious?"

"Do I look like I'm joking? Swipe the card!"

"Miss, your boyfriend is so generous!" The salesperson respectfully took the black card, looking envious and jealous. In the Chanel clothing store, any piece of clothing costs tens of thousands of yuan. Although there aren't many clothes in the store, wrapping up all of them would cost at least several million yuan. This was no ordinary display of extravagance!
