Chapter 344 - 173: Women Love Bags Like Men Love Women—It’s in Their Bones
In an instant, he lost all interest.
Besides, Xino was still waiting for him outside. If he had to choose, he would prioritize Xino.
After all, relationships weren’t all equal.
At that moment, inside the mall, Xino had just wandered into the Louis Vuitton Store when she got a call from Xu Yun.
She then waited happily inside the store.
The store manager saw Xino approaching and hurried over to greet her warmly. "Miss Xi, we haven’t seen you in a while! Are you here to look at our latest bags?"
"No, I’m not."
Xino replied, "I’m just tired from walking around, so I came in to sit and wait for someone."
"Of course, Miss Xi."
The store manager smiled and asked, "Would you like to wait in our VIP room, then? I can have someone bring you a coffee to sip on while you wait."
"No, that’s alright. I’ll just wait here. You don’t need to mind me."
"Of course, Miss Xi."
The store manager agreed, but she brought over a cup of coffee anyway.
She also had a sales associate wait nearby in case Xino needed anything.
A moment later, Xu Yun walked in.
Before the other sales associates could even react, Xino put down her coffee and immediately rushed to his side.
"Xu Yun, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for half an hour."
Xu Yun glanced at her empty hands and smiled. "You didn’t buy anything?"
"It’s always the same things every time I shop. I’m tired of it all."
Xino smiled and asked, "Is there anything you want to buy? I can get it for you."
The store manager was surprised to see that the person Xino was waiting for was Xu Yun. Judging by their interaction, they seemed very close.
She immediately walked over and greeted him warmly, asking, "Hello, Mr. Xu. Would you like a cup of coffee?"
"No, I’m fine."
Xu Yun asked, "Do you have any new, attractive bags in stock?"
"We just received a new shipment. Would Mr. Xu like to take a look?"
"You’re not planning to buy me a bag, are you?"
Xino said, "I don’t want one. I already have every bag there is."
"Who said I was buying it for you?"
Xu Yun said, "I’m buying them for other people."
Xino fell silent.
Xu Yun turned to the store manager. "To thank you for the coffee, please bag up all of your newest and most expensive bags for me."
"Right away, Mr. Xu." The store manager was ecstatic and immediately had her staff start bagging the items.
These bags required a certain status to purchase; not just any VIP client could buy them.
The minimum requirement was VIC status.
At their store, spending a cumulative 400,000 in a year made one a junior VIP. Spending over 1,000,000 made one a Super VIP, also known as a VIC.
Many luxury brands practiced this kind of preferential treatment because VIC clients were incredibly important.
Though they only accounted for 2% of the total customer base, they generated approximately 40% of the brand’s revenue.
And Xu Yun had long since surpassed the requirement, and he was on his way to becoming a top-tier VIC.
’That single cup of coffee had paid off handsomely.’
Soon, the staff finished packing the bags in the VIP room.
The store manager walked over, followed by several associates, each holding shopping bags.
"Mr. Xu, they’re all packed. A total of 10 bags, coming to 2.35 million in total."
"Alright, ring me up."
Xu Yun followed the manager to the checkout counter. After the payment went through, he said, "Leave the bags here for now. I’ll have someone come pick them up later."
"Of course, Mr. Xu."
The manager acknowledged, then added with a smile, "And congratulations, Mr. Xu. You’ve now been upgraded to a Louis Vuitton global Super VIC client.
From now on, you will enjoy the highest level of service at any Louis Vuitton store you visit."
As they were leaving, the manager and her staff respectfully saw them to the door, saying, "Mr. Xu, Miss Xi, take care. Please come again."
Xino asked in confusion, "Wait, Xu Yun, what are you doing buying so many bags?"
"They’re gifts. What, you think I’m going to use them myself?"
"Who are you giving so many gifts to at once?"
"I have a lot of friends. What can I say?"
Xino had no words.
’I bet you mean you have a lot of *female* friends!’
"Oh, right. A new Louis Vuitton chocolate shop opened on Wansheng Road today."
Xino said, "Let’s go. Take me there to try some."
"What’s so good about that? It’s crowded, and you have to wait in line." Xu Yun had driven past it earlier and saw a long line at the entrance.
Lining up for food in the heat of a Great Xia summer was something only people with nothing better to do would bother with.
Xino whined playfully, "Come on, please take me to try it. We won’t have to wait in line. We can go straight in."
"Can we?"
"Of course we can. What, you think our VIC status is just for show? We paid for it with cold, hard cash every year."
"Fine." Hearing that he wouldn’t have to wait in line, Xu Yun agreed.
’If it’s really tastier than a regular chocolate shop, I’ll buy some for the other women to try.’
As the two were discussing their trip to the Louis Vuitton chocolate shop, they approached Xu Yun’s car. That’s when he suddenly spotted another one of his cars parked right next to it.
The white Bentley Flying Spur.
Xu Yun frowned slightly.
’How is my car here?’
’Didn’t Li Jinshu say she’d taken it for maintenance?’
What’s more, he recognized one of the two people standing in front of the car: Wang Qing, his ex-girlfriend Huang Mengyao’s best friend.
Xino saw him staring at the car next to them and asked, "What’s wrong? You know this car?"
"I don’t just know the car, I know the people," Xu Yun said, walking forward to intercept the pair.
"Long time no see."
The man at her side saw this and asked in confusion, "Hey man, do I know you?"
"No."
Xu Yun shook his head. "But I know the woman next to you."
