How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself? Chapter 50 - 49 The Cheapest Thing is Ineffectual Tenderness

"Mr. Gu, please take your ti leaving, and welco to our store again," the salesperson said, smiling and bowing at the doorway...

From entering the store to leaving, it had not even been 20 minutes...

In addition to the Ice Blue Daytona he wore out, the salesperson also picked out a more low-key wristwatch for Mr. Gu. Although it did not cost as much as the Ice Blue Daytona, at 600,000, it still reached half that price...

Who wouldn’t like a custor like Gu Heng?

She didn’t even need to hint at the unofficial "bundle sale" rule needed to buy popular Rolex watches; Gu Heng voluntarily achieved it for her...

[The host has upgraded the quality of life, felt the beauty of living, and enjoyed the gifts of life. Spending 925,000 at the official Rolex store has successfully indulged desires, rewarding: 1,880,000 yuan, balance 11,880,000 yuan.]

The reward from indulging this ti was a bit less than before, only a little over double...

But Gu Heng, who had figured out the system’s pattern, wasn’t too surprised.

The experiences at several luxury stores had gradually accustod him to them, and he no longer experienced the surging excitent he had felt initially when entering luxury stores; naturally, the pleasure from indulging had decreased, and the rewards being not as substantial as before was understandable.

But trailing behind Gu Heng, Fang Xun, who was holding the Rolex gift box and free gifts for Mr. Gu, had not yet recovered from the shock of that scene...

She wasn’t a woman who hadn’t seen the world.

On the contrary, it was precisely because she had seen the world that Mr. Gu’s actions in the Rolex store had a stronger impact on her...

Simply put, most ordinary people do not grasp the concept of a million; they only know that this number could save a high-inco group, earning over ten thousand a month, ten years of struggle...

Only those with a clear understanding of how significant the number one million is can appreciate that luxury...

And Fang Xun, was exactly the type of person who had seen the world but had never had the opportunity to experience this kind of luxurious life...

Unintentionally, she again compared Mr. Gu with her diocre boyfriend, and this ti, the constraints of moral sense began to loosen gradually...

...

Mr. Gu, walking ahead, had no idea that his splurge at Rolex could provoke so many thoughts in Fang Xun.

If he had known...

He would have indulged even more!

After all, his purpose in bringing Fang Xun was precisely to open her heart, setting a tiny groundwork for his next move.

In the following two hours, Mr. Gu took her through various high-end luxury stores...

Even with the woman’s stamina buff for shopping, Fang Xun’s legs began to feel weak...

But what numbed more was her null response to Gu Heng’s spending habits...

In those two hours, she closely rembered the spending figures Mr. Gu racked up at each luxury brand store...

At the LV store, he spent 160,000 on two outfits...

Zegna got 80,000 for a suit...

Versace, 210,000...

Burberry, 90,000...

A total of 540,000 spent...

She didn’t lack clothes, but upon a little reflection, she wondered if all the clothes she ever bought from childhood to date sumd up to 540,000?

Now Fang Xun finally understood what Mr. Gu ant when he said he was "stocking up" upon their arrival at Babai Ban Shopping Center...

At first she didn’t understand, but after a glance at the nurous designer clothes she could barely carry, she realized that when Mr. Gu talked about "stocking up," he truly ant it...

And though Gu Heng spent 540,000 on purchases on the surface, thanks to the rewards he even made a profit of 120,000, bringing his bank balance to an even 12,000,000.

.....

Suddenly, Gu Heng, who was walking ahead, abruptly stopped and turned to glance at Fang Xun, whose arms were laden with bags from various brands. He showed no sign of pity but instead asked, "I always feel like I forgot to buy sothing, do you know what it might be?"

Though she was already very tired, Fang Xun still did her best to maintain her professional deanor and looked him over.

"Maybe it’s shoes that you haven’t bought yet?"

Upon hearing Fang Xun’s response, Gu Heng then rembered that the only pair of casual shoes he had were the ones on his feet.

Buying this pair was just to fulfill his dream of owning them, and having worn them for a few days, he had achieved that dream. How could he wear them all the ti?

As they had been shopping for quite a while, Gu Heng was also feeling tired, especially upon seeing the fine sweat on Fang Xun’s nose; he did not wish to exhaust her further, and soon asked, "Do you have any recomndations for n’s shoes?"

"I’m not very sure about n’s fashion, but I think Gucci is quite good. Their n’s shoes are quite famous; you could check them out."

Upon hearing this, Gu Heng looked around and noticed the Gucci store in sight. He started walking again, "Alright, let’s go to Gucci then."

....

When the two approached the Gucci store, the sharp-eyed sales associate hurried over with an exceptionally warm attitude...

After all, a sales associate is also human; it’s only normal to assess the situation...

A man and a woman, carrying over ten bags from various luxury brands—this display of purchasing power was sothing even a novice in the industry could appreciate as signaling high-quality custors, right?

"Help pick a few pairs of shoes that suit ."

Before the sales associate could even recite their standard greeting, Gu Heng had already spoken up. After finishing, he turned to Fang Xun with a slightly warr tone, "Rest here for a while; I’ll call you once I’m done."

At Gu Heng’s words, Fang Xun was slightly startled...

This didn’t match the image she had of him in her mind...

Wasn’t Gu Heng just using her like a laborer, directing all the physical tasks her way?

This sudden gentleness was hard for her to adjust to...

But discomfort aside, the thought of Gu Heng caring about her made her heart, already erratic from his provocations, skip a beat...

However, Gu Heng wasn’t tuned into her thoughts. Following the guidance of the sales associate, he headed towards the n’s shoes section.

Fang Xun, anwhile, sat down in the rest area arranged by another sales associate, gazing absently at Gu Heng’s retreating figure...

She knew very well that what Gu Heng had done was a re trifle...

But people are fickle...

The sa action, when experienced with different people, elicits a completely different response.

Like her boyfriend, who had been very kind to her before they had a falling out and considered breaking up.

Every ti she was tired from work, he would always considerately check on her. Sotis he would even surprise her with little gifts...

But aside from feeling moved at the beginning, she gradually began to feel nothing at all.

Especially after their relationship began to fracture due to their inability to fund their wedding, recalling this kind of gentleness and thoughtfulness even made her feel nauseous...

Now looking at Gu Heng...

The reason she was tired was all because of him.

But she harbored no resentnt towards him, and even a casual show of concern from him could lift her spirits...

That’s the difference...

Without comparison, there is no harm.

Only in this mont did she understand the aning behind "The cheapest thing is ineffectual tenderness."
