"Hmph, how much wealth can a windfall bring?"
Xie Baolian and Murong Yanran never even thought about millions. They chatted and laughed as they walked to the sofa, discussing nail polish colors.
"Not much, just over a million, hehe!"
"Oh, one hundred..." Xie Baolian froze for a moment, not quite processing it.
"How much did you say?"
"Over one million five hundred thousand, hehe!"
"O-one million plus?" Xie Baolian's eyes widened, her mind going blank. She kept muttering "one million plus" over and over.
A few seconds later, Xie Baolian hugged Li Haochen and jumped with laughter, "Oh my... hahaha, this is great... Mmmph... mmmph..."
While Xie Baolian was overjoyed, Li Haochen's face suffered. He was kissed on both sides so much it was like a face wash.
"Mom, stop, stop, my face is drowning in your spit."
"Hmph, I'll do what I want..."
Murong Yanran, standing nearby, laughed with schadenfreude. Seeing Li Haochen walk towards her, she quickly darted behind Xie Baolian, made a funny face, and giggled triumphantly.
With her plan foiled, Li Haochen glared at Murong Yanran's sly smile and said aloud, "I'll spank your bottom later."
Xie Baolian grabbed Murong Yanran and headed for the door, "Yanran, let's go out to eat, and after that, we'll get manicures and pedicures."
"Sure, how about changing the color on our fingers and toes too? And that international slimming and beauty center seems to have a 10% discount for new memberships now."
"Alright, it's a happy decision, let's go..." Xie Baolian and Murong Yanran agreed instantly and happily grabbed their bags and left.
"Hey, let's go, why are you still standing there?"
Li Haochen rubbed his forehead and gave a wry smile, "You two divided and conquered me before I could even enjoy it. Who am I supposed to cry to..."
"What, do you have other ideas? Shall I give you a political lesson?"
Though Xie Baolian's gaze was casual, its power was immense, sending shivers down Li Haochen's spine. He quickly trotted up to her, put an arm around her shoulder, winked, and said obsequiously, "Mom, absolutely no other ideas. I'll take you on a shopping spree later. We'll only pick the expensive ones, not the ones that suit us. Your son has money."
"Aunt Lian, shall we go look at Vacheron Constantin later? They have a few new models that are very nice, and not expensive, just seven or eight hundred thousand."
"Okay, my watch is getting old, I need to buy a similar one to wear."
The two women were also in acting mode, their eyes not even blinking as they spoke.
Li Haochen stumbled, "I... I need to pee, I'll go to the restroom first."
"Hold it..."
The two women said in unison. Seeing Li Haochen stumped, they both squinted with laughter.
Smart's space wasn't large. Today, they swapped Xie Baolian's Hongqi H9, and Murong Yanran was driving, of course. Li Haochen was incredibly comfortable, reclining the passenger seat to its lowest setting, resting his feet on the footrest, eyes half-closed, humming a tune. He was as comfortable as could be.
Murong Yanran, who was driving, had a dark expression, her anger steadily accumulating.
One had to admit the car's performance was excellent. Even Murong Yanran, a clumsy female assassin, could drive it so steadily, which was proof enough. Of course, the speed of 30 mph was also a significant factor.
As soon as Murong Yanran parked, she twisted Li Haochen's ear, "Hurry up and sign up for your driver's license test."
"Uh...?"
"It's so comfortable to be a passenger, I really don't..."
"What did you say?" Murong Yanran shot Li Haochen a glare.
"Uh, nothing, I'll sign up tomorrow."
"Hmm, that's more like it. Auntie, let's go, what do you want to eat?"
Murong Yanran was quite pleased with Li Haochen's answer and immediately smiled, linking arms with Xie Baolian and stepping into the elevator.
After eating, Li Haochen pulled Xie Baolian towards the Vacheron Constantin boutique, but she refused.
Li Haochen was stubborn, refusing to let them leave without buying a watch. Xie Baolian had no choice but to choose a ladies' wristwatch from Longines nearby for over twenty thousand yuan. It was simple and elegant, perfectly suiting her.
Murong Yanran also came over and took a look, "Auntie, your taste is really good. This watch really suits you, it looks beautiful."
Xie Baolian was also very satisfied, admiring it from various angles.
"Mom, don't take it off, wear it and go, hehe!"
"Does it look good?"
"It looks good, very good, hehe!"
At that moment, Xie Baolian was as happy as Murong Yanran was when she received the watch from Li Haochen, looking at it more and more, finding it more beautiful than watches worth millions.
She had a watch on her wrist, but her neck was bare. Li Haochen then led the two women into Chow Sang Sang. When they came out, both women had a simple platinum necklace on their necks. It wasn't expensive, just a few thousand yuan.
However, Li Haochen was a bit dissatisfied. He had his eyes on a diamond-encrusted necklace worth seventy to eighty thousand yuan.
After that, the two women didn't buy much else; most of the purchases were for Li Haochen, from head to toe, they didn't even spare his underwear, and they bought it with surprising accuracy. Li Haochen had no idea how Murong Yanran knew his size.
Passing by the Laperla boutique, the two women smiled and walked in. Li Haochen didn't pay attention to the store; he was too tired and just wanted to find a stool to sit down.
Once inside and seated, it became awkward. Everything was underwear and bras, and there were even a few designs with very little fabric, as well as transparent lace nightgowns.
Li Haochen didn't know whether to stay or go, his inner torment growing. He wanted to look but couldn't bring himself to, his neck stiff as a board, his eyeballs darting left and right.
Murong Yanran had become increasingly bold lately. She picked up a sexy, semi-transparent black silk slip and a set of black lace-embroidered lingerie and walked up to Li Haochen.
"Does this nightgown look good?" After saying that, Murong Yanran held the nightgown against herself, looking at Li Haochen slyly.
Li Haochen's eyes widened, his nose puffing out hot, ragged breaths. He almost had a hypertensive episode. He swallowed several times, glanced around, and seeing no other men, quickly pulled Murong Yanran aside, "Are you trying to get me killed? So many people here."
"They're all girls, what are you afraid of?"
"Girls or not, it's not allowed," Li Haochen stated definitively.
Murong Yanran rolled her eyes at Li Haochen, dismissively dangled the underwear and bras in front of him, and said, "How about this set? Hehe."
Li Haochen's face was a mask of exasperation. He grabbed Murong Yanran and headed for the cashier, "It looks good, it all looks good."
"You haven't even looked, how do you know it looks good?"
"Can we look at it slowly when we get home?"
Arriving at the counter, Xie Baolian also brought over some lingerie. Li Haochen kept urging the beautiful women, and after a few minutes of torment, it finally ended with the beep of a card swipe.
As soon as the payment was made, Li Haochen hurriedly pushed the two women out of the Laperla boutique. As soon as they were outside the door, Li Haochen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he would never accompany them into such shops again.
