CHAPTER 253: 251, WHAT KIND OF FAIRY-TALE FAMILY? 1.2 MILLION?

Luofeng pointed to Hermes. "That one is a true rip-off; their tactics are even more disgusting! If you want to purchase a limited-edition platinum bag, especially one made of rare leather, you have to put up with all sorts of mandatory bundled sales—the kind that can truly bleed you dry!"

Hermes’s bundled sales weren’t just simple add-ons. Ever heard of Hermes dinnerware? It’s super expensive and a total rip-off. A single dinner plate costs over ten thousand, and a fruit salad bowl goes for five to six thousand. Even a rinsing cup is 2,000 yuan. Can you believe it? What’s more, Hermes porcelain is insanely expensive. But even then, it doesn’t seem to be as pricey as Daxia’s porcelain, right? Ultimately, buying modern porcelain at such high prices is just an insult to one’s intelligence!

"Is Hermes really that much of a scam?" Bai Ningbing joined in the rant after listening to Luofeng go on for so long.

"There’s no such thing as the biggest scam, only bigger scams! If Hermes dinnerware is an insult to intelligence, then Hermes furniture doesn’t even take ’intelligence’ into account."

"There’s this joke about someone buying a Hermes platinum bag who was upsold a small wooden table for over seventy thousand! Turns out, that small wooden table wasn’t even as reliable as something from IKEA—isn’t that blatantly scamming people?" As Luofeng spoke, he couldn’t help but laugh.

Hermes was indeed more of a scam than LV. But hey, at least they don’t scam poor people, right?

The three of them soon arrived at the Gucci section, with Bai Ningbing and Tangya walking ahead.

Luofeng silently checked Tangya’s Good Feeling Degree. It had risen from a mere 62 points to 68. Sixty-eight points was also a critical threshold. If it reaches 70, she probably won’t oppose my relationship with her daughter anymore, right? It’s not just the gifts; it’s all the little details, maxed out. I’ve completely given her a way to gracefully accept. After all, with the wishlist in hand, giving gifts is just so easy.

Indeed, that was the case. If he had just directly given her a bag? He could forget about it. A bag endorsed by Miss Reba would be good, wouldn’t it? Why choose LV? But doing it under the guise of buying a gift for Luofeng’s mom, and casually picking up an extra one, made it much more acceptable.

Inside the Gucci Store, Tangya and Bai Ningbing were browsing the merchandise, while Luofeng took the opportunity to send messages on his phone.

"Mom, what do you think of this little bee bag? Isn’t it awesome?" Bai Ningbing asked.

The bee motif is a classic Gucci design, featured on everything from shoes to clothing.

However, Tangya didn’t answer, instead whispering, "What exactly is going on between you two?"

Bai Ningbing’s face immediately flushed. "What do you mean, Mom?"

"Confess and you’ll be treated with leniency!" Tangya gave a light ’Hmm’.

Previously, at the entrance, Luofeng had mistaken her for Bai Ningbing and embraced her on the spot. If one were to claim there was nothing between Luofeng and Bai Ningbing, would Tangya believe it?

With her face all rosy, Bai Ningbing whispered, "It’s still the same as before—I like him, and he likes me, but we haven’t taken our relationship any further!"

?????? Tangya was very perplexed. He’s willing to spend that much money even without taking the relationship further? Her Good Feeling Degree towards him had indeed increased. This was especially true considering how Luofeng had arranged the gift of the bag, with every detail meticulously planned.

"Mom..." Bai Ningbing cooed petulantly, expressing her displeasure.

Seeing Bai Ningbing like this, Tangya suddenly felt that her daughter wasn’t lying. Bai Ningbing and Luofeng definitely hadn’t had any further contact. If there truly hadn’t been any further contact, then this young man really wasn’t stingy.

"Ningbing, I think this little bee bag is really awesome!" Luofeng came over at this moment, and the two women ended their chat.

"Hmm, it is indeed pretty good," Bai Ningbing nodded.

"Shall we buy buy buy then?" Luofeng asked with a smile, looking at Bai Ningbing for her opinion.

"I don’t want this one!" Bai Ningbing shook her head, refusing.

Luofeng changed tactics. "It’s starting to cool down soon. How about we buy some autumn clothes while we’re at it?"

"..." Tangya was speechless. Just what kind of extraordinary family does Luofeng come from?

Bai Ningbing glanced at Tangya, who offered no response. I just can’t understand young people these days anymore, Tangya thought.

Those Gucci summer outfits of Bai Ningbing’s from before, and that LV long dress... She herself had worn an LV long dress to the bank once. When a colleague saw her there, the comments she received were extremely unpleasant. After all, given Tangya’s income, there was no way she could afford to spend 50,000 yuan on a single dress.

Luofeng didn’t wait for Bai Ningbing’s agreement; he pretended to look at Gucci’s women’s sweatshirts. Gucci’s women’s sweatshirts were very suitable for young girls, with vibrant and fresh colors.

After browsing for a while, Luofeng said, "Ningbing, why don’t you try some on?"

Bai Ningbing walked over to Luofeng and saw that he had selected more than a dozen sweatshirts, including some of the same style in different colors. Is he on a shopping spree?

"That’s a lot!" Bai Ningbing reminded him.

These dozen or so items add up to about 100,000 yuan, just enough for two rounds of cashback, Luofeng had mentally calculated as he finished selecting.

Bai Ningbing picked out the same styles in different colors, eventually selecting a fruit-themed three-piece set, which included a pineapple print, a cherry print, and an apple print. Additionally, there was a Little Bear print and a Mickey print. The other few items were discarded by Bai Ningbing.

With the salesperson’s assistance, Bai Ningbing took the selected clothes and entered the dressing room. She then started trying on the clothes alone. After each change, she would come out for Luofeng and her mother to take a look.

But by the third outfit, Luofeng had already paid with his card, buying all five types. The total price was around 50,000 yuan, an average of 10,000 yuan per piece. One could only say that this brand was, relatively speaking, somewhat more approachable than LV.

The cashback was still triple. Luofeng, once again, hadn’t spent a penny. Instead, he earned 100,000 yuan and bought Bai Ningbing many clothes. It was just like with LV; although the amount earned was different, Luofeng felt very happy shopping.

At 9:55 p.m., the hotel arranged for specialized staff to accompany Luofeng, Bai Ningbing, and Tangya to the Green Willow Center’s observation hall. The entire observation hall was reserved just for the three of them, excluding the staff, of course.

Such a tourist experience was simply explosive. It felt as if the entire building belonged to just the three of them. Needless to say, the feeling was intense, as if they themselves were the owners of the tower.

This exclusive booking was quite expensive, costing a total of 1.2 million yuan. Ordinarily, such a booking would only require about a million. However, Luofeng had also arranged for drone photography and applied for a drone swarm light show, pushing the final expenditure up to 1.2 million.
