CHAPTER 518: 516, SISTERS? THERE MUST BE MY TEACHER AMONG THEM?

"Auntie, I think if it’s just the three of us, it’s better to eat out. Please wait a moment, I’ll make a call now!" Luofeng said.

Through a voice call, he contacted the owner of the Moon Island restaurant.

"Hello, this is Moon Island. I am Zhang Fudong," Zhang Fudong said.

"Ah, hello, Boss. Are you still open today?" Luofeng asked.

"Of course, we’re open for business!"

"Great! I’d like to reserve a table for three for lunch. We’ll be there at noon!"

"Alright!"

"I’ll pay you a deposit first!"

After ending the call, Bai Ningbing quickly asked, "Moon Island? What kind of place is that?"

"It’s a restaurant. It takes half an hour to get there, so since it’s still early, let’s kill some time by shopping!" Luofeng said.

"Okay," Bai Ningbing nodded.

About twenty minutes later, Luofeng drove to the business plaza in the Southern District. This place primarily catered to mainstream consumers. Plus, with the holiday, it was quite crowded.

Luofeng reached out and took Bai Ningbing’s hand. She struggled a little at first but then let him hold it, her face turning slightly red. Because her mom, Tangya, was right there, wasn’t she?

The three of them took a break in the plaza for a while. Tangya then suggested they go to the supermarket. Since they were already there, they might as well pick up some items for the New Year.

Luofeng naturally didn’t refuse and ended up pushing the shopping cart, following behind Tangya and Bai Ningbing. They looked like a family of three.

But, you see? In the eyes of onlookers, it was different. Most men who saw Luofeng with the two women were incredibly envious, remarking that this guy was out shopping with a pair of beauties who could pass for sisters...

Of course, Tangya seemed to overhear some of the onlookers’ discussions. Especially that whole "Where there are sisters, count me in as their mentor" comment? Tangya understood the implication, and her expression turned somewhat peculiar.

Tangya and Bai Ningbing mainly bought various types of nuts, along with jellies and some dairy products.

Luofeng curiously asked, "It’s New Year’s, shouldn’t we buy some candy?"

"No need!" Bai Ningbing refused.

"Candy isn’t good; it makes you gain weight!" Tangya seconded.

What kind of logic is that? Luofeng thought. Nuts are high in calories too, aren’t they?

But Luofeng didn’t try to argue with women. After all, he couldn’t understand why some men liked to reason with their girlfriends. Were they just asking for trouble?

The three of them shopped for nearly half an hour. Luofeng insisted on paying. Tangya had intended to pay, but Luofeng beat her to it.

After paying, they could push the shopping cart directly to the underground garage, making it easy to load the items into the car.

"Luofeng, it looks like there’s a lottery draw over there?" Bai Ningbing glanced to the side, where participation required meeting certain spending conditions. Luofeng’s receipt showed six hundred yuan, clearly meeting the criteria.

"Luofeng, you have better luck. Why don’t you try the draw?" Bai Ningbing said.

"You go ahead and draw!" Luofeng shook his head. The main reason was that the System hadn’t given any notification. What luck did he even have? This kind of lottery draw? Was he really going to waste a Lucky Sticker Prop Card on this?

"Oh, okay!" Bai Ningbing nodded, then approached the staff member running the lottery.

When she opened the ticket, even Luofeng was surprised. It was the first prize?

"Whoa, first prize?" Luofeng said in surprise. "What’s the prize?"

The staff member said, "The first prize is a shopping Voucher. At the Daxia Gold Shop diagonally opposite us, if you spend 1,999 yuan, you get a 1,199 yuan discount. This means you only need to pay 800 yuan to purchase gold worth 1,999 yuan!"

Alright. So it was just a routine, Luofeng thought. This kind of routine could be used ten thousand times, and there would still be people thinking they’d struck it rich. In reality, it’s the supermarket making a killing, isn’t it? Of course, if you genuinely needed that 1,999 yuan item and were planning to buy it anyway, then you would indeed save a lot.

"Oh, how boring. Miss, can we exchange the first prize for the third prize?" Bai Ningbing asked the staff member. After all, Bai Ningbing had seen through the supermarket’s routine in an instant.

The third prize was a set of knives. Although it was a generic brand, at least it was free, right? Whereas the first prize still required spending money on gold jewelry?

"Sorry, we cannot exchange the prizes!"

"How about exchanging it for a roll of toilet paper then?" Bai Ningbing continued. A roll of toilet paper cost twenty yuan. But they still refused? So? This routine runs really deep, doesn’t it?

"Forget it! You can keep your first prize!" Bai Ningbing said, too exasperated to make complaints.

Ding! The Mission Card has been automatically used!

Go to the Daxia Gold Store, purchase gold products, and give them as New Year Gifts to Bai Ningbing and Tangya!

Mission Reward: Will be comprehensively calculated based on the amount of gold purchased and the happiness levels of Tangya and Bai Ningbing!

Looking at this mission, Luofeng smiled slightly. "Hello, may I ask if this Voucher can be used to purchase any item in the gold store?"

In other words, Luofeng was asking if he could still get the discount of over a thousand yuan without purchasing an item worth 1,999 yuan.

"No, sir. You must spend at least 1,999 yuan to be eligible for the 1,199 yuan discount!" the staff member explained.

"Okay, Auntie, Ningbing, let’s go take a look!" Luofeng said, holding the Voucher.

Bai Ningbing whispered, "Luofeng, this is just a routine!"

This sweet, naive girl, Luofeng thought. Did she really think I couldn’t see through this routine?

"Don’t worry, I know!" Luofeng replied. He pushed the shopping cart and entered the Daxia Gold Shop, inquiring again, "Hello, I just won the first prize. Can I get the discount on any product priced over 1,999 yuan in your store?"

"Yes, sir!" the employee said. "For example, if you buy a gold pearl Pendant priced at 2,999 yuan, with the Voucher, it will only cost 1,800 yuan!"

Luofeng glanced at the necklace’s specifications: the gold was 9999 fine gold, but its weight was only two grams. As for the pearl Pendant? There was no description. Clearly, it was the most common type of freshwater cultured pearl.

A typical prize draw routine! But Luofeng had a way to counter this routine.

"Hello, I’d like to have a look at this gold bar!" Luofeng said.

The clerk was momentarily stunned, then hastily said, "Sir, a gold bar is purely an investment product with almost no ornamental value. We recommend that you purchase gold jewelry instead! The two Beauties with you are very pretty, and gold jewelry would make them look even more stunning!"

Luofeng was unmoved. "I want to see the gold bar!"

Gold bars were indeed investment products. But their prices were clearly marked: a certain number of grams cost a specific amount of money. So, this Voucher... it’s only truly beneficial if I use it to buy this, right?

"Sir, this gold bar is ’four nines’ fine gold, weighs about thirty grams, and the total price is 10,950 yuan!"

Luofeng checked the current gold price on his phone. The gold store wouldn’t dare to inflate the price of gold excessively. It was just 20 yuan per gram higher than the international gold price.

"No problem, we’ll take it!" Luofeng handed over the Voucher.

The clerk was torn between laughter and tears.

Bai Ningbing, the Top Scholar, also found Luofeng’s maneuver amusing and wanted to laugh.

"Sir, are you really not interested in looking at other jewelry?" the employee asked desperately.
