The decision to buy the watch was made, and now it was Zhang Li’s turn.
Zhang Li ca over with various docunts, proofs, and materials, explaining and describing them to Li Jing one by one.
Li Jing wasn’t very interested in these; they were mostly handled and coordinated by An Tong.
Zhang Li also understood Li Jing’s intentions and enthusiastically introduced certificates, forms, and warranty terms to An Tong, as well as so agreed accessories and small gifts.
Seeing An Tong’s serious deanor, Zhang Li chuckled in admiration as she organized the materials, saying, "Miss An truly deserves to be Mr. Li’s girlfriend; she’s both beautiful and capable."
Upon hearing this, An Tong’s face turned slightly red, and she quickly explained, "I’m his assistant, not his girlfriend."
Not?
Zhang Li was surprised, her expression changed slightly, and she quickly glanced at Li Jing’s face. Only after confirming neither looked displeased did she say, "Sorry, I was too quick to speak."
An Tong said it was fine, then continued filling out the forms as prompted by the other party.
Zhang Li unwittingly glanced at the leisurely Li Jing beside her, pondering how he could gift his assistant a Patek Philippe worth over two hundred thousand, which left her secretly astonished.
She had seen gifts for wives, gifts for bosses, but this was truly the first ti she’d seen a gift for an assistant.
Previously, she had served a wealthy businessman who, after purchasing a watch, rely promised to buy his young girlfriend accompanying him a bag, never intended to gift a watch worth hundreds of thousands.
Thinking about the hint from Yu Yang on the phone earlier, Zhang Li guessed that Li Jing was perhaps even wealthier than she anticipated, surpassing many of her forr clients.
Although she was a salesperson at Patek Philippe, not all custors were top-tier tycoons; after all, the number of top-tier tycoons nationwide was limited. Besides them, she’d dealt with many second-hand sellers, influencers, watch collectors, and people with high inco, like Yu Yang, the private bank director.
Compared to top-tier tycoons, these individuals appeared more frequently in the store, because, after all, the tycoons don’t have much ti to co and view watches.
These individuals could often purchase one or two models, sotis even three models, but higher spending was relatively challenging.
However, based on Zhang Li’s experience, Li Jing’s financial strength was much superior to these individuals, likely leading to further purchases and potentially becoming a super VIP client.
So, after finishing the series of procedures and Li Jing signed his na, Zhang Li proactively added Li Jing’s contact info.
"Mr. Li, if you have any further needs for buying watches, you can contact directly for appointnt registration."
Upon hearing this, Li Jing raised his eyebrows; the words truly spoke to his heart.
Honestly, this ti he only bought a regular Patek Philippe, feeling it was still sowhat lacking.
After all, since the decision to buy a luxury watch had been made, buying just the most basic regular one didn’t fit his current spending habits.
Thus, he nodded and asked, "Alright, what styles of watches can I register for now, and roughly how long will it take?"
Seeing Li Jing indeed dissatisfied with the regular watch, Zhang Li bead and imdiately explained, "You purchased our regular model, so you’re qualified to register for popular styles like the Hamrhead Shark and Nautilus. If there are other models of the sa level you like, you can register for them too. In the absence of special circumstances, it might take around a year."
"Can I register multiple watches at the sa ti?"
"Of course." Zhang Li nodded.
"Alright then." Li Jing pondered for a mont and said, "Register the Hamrhead Shark, Nautilus, and any sa-level watches for ; whichever arrives first is the one I’ll take."
"Sure, if the relevant models arrive at the store, I’ll notify you promptly."
After completing the registration procedures, Li Jing also completed the paynt procedures for two watches.
Ultimately, the two watches cost a total of six hundred and twenty thousand yuan.
Seeing the tens of thousands spent just like that, An Tong’s heart tightened uncontrollably, especially knowing that over two hundred thousand was for her, making her feelings exceedingly complex, a mix of anticipation, excitent, unease, and bewildernt.
After all, the over two hundred thousand watch was extraordinarily expensive for her.
Li Jing, however, didn’t notice An Tong’s change of expression; as soon as he successfully made the paynt, a system prompt sounded in his mind.
"A precious watch purchased with a fortune, a luxury shining on the wrist for all to admire, strolling the streets in self-regard, ti’s passage intertwines with the divine.
Congratulations to the host for obtaining the first luxury watch in your life, reward a refund of six million two hundred thousand yuan, remaining balance one hundred eighty-seven million nine hundred ten thousand yuan."
Upon hearing the system’s voice, Li Jing subconsciously touched his nose, a hint of satisfaction flickering in his eyes.
Subsequently, after the staff completed the watch’s tuning and strap adjustnt, both Li Jing and An Tong directly wore the watches on their wrists.
With the bags and watch boxes in hand, they returned to the car. Li Jing looked at An Tong, who hadn’t spoken, and asked, "How is it, do you like it?"
"Of course I do, but... it feels too expensive."
An Tong glanced at the Patek Philippe on her wrist, feeling its incredible value, not daring even to use her left hand to hold anything for fear of damaging it.
"Don’t let it weigh you down ntally, a watch is still just a watch, it can’t possibly be more important than a person, can it?"
Li Jing gently patted her arm, smiling, "Besides, you deserve it; you’ve done an excellent job as my assistant recently, and I’m very pleased."
"Really?"
Receiving praise from Li Jing for her work, An Tong’s eyes brightened, her face full of joy, as if being acknowledged by Li Jing was even more gratifying than getting this watch.
"Of course it’s true."
Li Jing lifted her delicate chin, his lips curling upward slightly: "You’ve always been my most capable assistant, haven’t you?"
An Tong had gradually beco quite experienced now, and upon hearing the word "capable," her cheeks flushed. She then asked softly, "Well... How about I help you in the car later? I recently watched that movie you gave , and there was this scene in the car..."
"Cough cough, no need for that, I just did it before coming here, a bit too quick, can’t really handle it."
Li Jing instantly stopped her idea upon hearing this.
Seeing Li Jing refuse, An Tong couldn’t help but burst into laughter, intentionally pouting: "I told you, you need to boost your health, but you didn’t believe ."
"Cough cough... Alright, alright, I’ll boost it, boost it, I’ll listen to you on this."
...
On the main road of Celestial Sea City, Li Jing was waiting at the intersection in his Maserati for the red light.
Next to him, in the passenger seat of a Range Rover Evoque, a middle-aged woman was looking in the mirror, applying lipstick. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed the Maserati on her right, her eyes brightening, and she quickly reached over to tap the bald, obese man in the driver’s seat, whispering, "Honey, honey, look, it’s a Maserati!"
"Maserati?"
The bald man, smoking a cigarette, turned his head to look.
As his gaze swept over the car body, he noticed the stunning An Tong in the passenger seat, a flash of envy flickering in his eyes, followed by a dismissive remark: "Maseratis aren’t all that anymore. It’s just a trick to impress won who don’t know better—its reputation among luxury car brands dostically is long gone."
Not forgetting to add: "Judging by how young this guy looks, he probably rented it or bought it secondhand. Maserati secondhand cars are so cheap, I could buy one myself."
"I see, I thought we’d run into a handso rich heir."
The middle-aged woman clicked her tongue, also noticing An Tong in the passenger seat, a hint of jealousy appearing in her eyes.
Then her gaze naturally drifted downward, landing on Li Jing’s left hand resting on the car window, more specifically, his wrist.
"Honey, they say the poor play with cars, the rich play with watches."
The middle-aged woman’s gossiping instincts were particularly keen, elbowing her husband and whispering, "Weren’t you thinking about buying a watch recently? Check out the brand of the watch he’s wearing; it’ll tell us if he’s pretending."
At this, the bald man eagerly stretched his neck to peer at the watch.
He was rendered speechless upon the sight.
Seeing her husband not responding, the middle-aged woman frowned and urged: "Say sothing! Is it so no-na brand? Nowadays, these pretty young ladies lack brains, getting duped by fake rich heirs without even knowing..."
After ranting, she turned her head to see her husband in a daze, prompting her to question, "What’s wrong with you?"
"Cough cough..."
The scorn that was once on the bald man’s face had long vanished; he turned back, avoiding any further glance, appearing a bit unnatural: "The watch... it’s quite good; it’s a Patek Philippe."
"Patek Philippe?" The middle-aged woman suddenly widened her eyes: "Didn’t you say that’s the king of watches? You can’t be mistaken, right?"
"Definitely not mistaken, I’ve seen the model he has before."
The bald man coughed awkwardly: "Last month, I registered for another Patek Philippe, but the dealer hasn’t contacted yet."
"Oh, I rember now; you said you reserved one that costs over a hundred thousand, right?" the middle-aged woman realized, "So, that ans his watch costs over a hundred thousand?"
"No..."
The bald man, seeming slightly impatient, replied: "Enough! Why do you, a woman, ask so much? The light’s green now."
"Why do you care if I ask? Can’t I ask?"
Seeing Li Jing accelerate through the intersection, the middle-aged woman forcefully smacked her husband’s arm, dissatisfied: "Exactly how much is that watch? Why can’t you just say it since you claid you’d seen it!"
Annoyed by her questioning, the bald man finally responded bluntly, "Alright, alright, it’s over three hundred thousand, about the sa as this car!"
"That watch could equal your car??"
The middle-aged woman was utterly stunned, finally understanding the reason behind her husband’s sudden change in attitude.
She leaned back in her seat, remained in silence for a while, then turned to ask gloomily, "Did the woman in that car also have a Patek Philippe?"
The bald man frowned: "Yes, so what?"
"You see, he knew to get his woman a watch; why didn’t you reserve one for when you got yours?"
The middle-aged woman removed her Oga from her wrist, insistently saying: "Go to the boutique later and reserve one for ; I want a Patek Philippe too!"
