Chapter 11 An Apology

  • As soon as the middle-aged couple saw Lu Chen glaring at them, their faces turned pale at once.
  • Now they weren’t concerned about whether Lu Chen had proved them wrong.
  • What they were more worried about was who Lu Chen really was, and how he would get back at them.
  • If Lu Chen was an important person in Jun Yue Group, it would be a piece of cake for him to cause trouble for them.
  • Once the idea of causing them trouble flashed across his mind, there would be countless people who would ruin them in order to flatter him.
  • “I remember both of you said that one of you would kneel down to apologize and the other would kneel down to lick my shoes if I could afford to buy all the clothes in this store,” Lu Chen said with a smirk.
  • The couple trembled in shock. The very thing that they dreaded had happened.
  • “Mr. Lu. W-W-We’re sorry! We were dim-witted for not being able to recognize you just now. I am sure you are a generous and forgiving person. Please forgive us.” The middle-aged man apologized to Lu Chen in a hurry. It would be abysmally disgraceful for him to apologize on his knees.
  • “Mr. Lu, we realize our mistakes. We shouldn’t have fought over the clothes which your daughter wanted. Please spare us this time for the sake of our child. It’s a bad influence to let her learn things like this,” the rich woman said with a pale face.
  • What a huge impact it would be to her daughter’s outlook on life if she really knelt down to lick his shoes today.
  • Of course, if it was solely the fact that Lu Chen was rich enough to buy all the clothes in the store, the middle-aged couple wouldn’t carry out their bets. They would only bear the ridicule from him and leave to buy clothes for their daughter somewhere else.
  • However, knowing there was a high possibility that Lu Chen was an important person in Jun Yue Group, they wouldn’t dare to go back on their words.
  • Jun Yue Group could be considered the biggest company in Chongqing. The net worth of the CEO of the group, Lu Zhong, was among the top on the Forbes World Billionaires list.
  • They didn’t dare to go against people of such importance.
  • Lin Yijia and the others disdained the middle-aged couple silently after seeing how terrified they were.
  • Even if Lu Chen and the CEO of the mall knew each other, it’s just too much for them to be terrified to this extent.
  • But Lin Yijia was really curious how Lu Chen—a poor loser—could be acquainted with the billionaire Xing Bing?
  • “How dare you fight over what our little princess chose? You've got some nerves!” Xing Bing finally grasped the situation and suddenly looked at the middle-aged couple in rage.
  • Little princess?!
  • Don’t tell me that this man, who can’t be more ordinary, is actually the most influential person in Jun Yue Group?
  • My God!
  • The couple turned pale once again at the thought.
  • “General Manager Xing, we’re sorry! Blame us for being dim-witted and not recognizing Mr. Lu at first sight. It’s our fault!” The man cried, terror apparent on his face.
  • He was also considered rich as he had a small company to his name. However, he was a small fry compared to a billionaire like Xing Bing.
  • And not to mention Xing Bing had Jun Yue Group backing him.
  • “Get out of here. I hope you’ve learnt your lesson! Don’t look down on others as you please next time!” Lu Chen glanced at the daughter of the couple, who was about the same age as his own daughter, who was looking at her parents confusedly with an innocent face.
  • The woman’s words did have an impact on him. Lu Chen didn’t hope to leave a bad influence on such a cute and lovely little girl by embarrassing her parents.
  • “Thank you, Mr. Lu and General Manager Xing!” Seeing that Lu Chen had let them off the hook, the couple felt relieved and quickly left with their daughter.
  • The promoter quickly packed up the twenty pieces of girls’ clothes.
  • The promoter who had offended Lu Chen just now immediately apologized to him and said, “Sir, I’m really sorry for my bad attitude just now. I shouldn’t have looked down on you.”
  • Lu Chen hummed coldly. He then looked at the short-haired promoter and said, “All of my purchases are considered your sales. Send all these clothes to my house later this afternoon.”
  • “Thank you, Mr. Lu! Please leave us your address. We will arrange the delivery as soon as possible,” the short-haired promoter said excitedly.
  • She could have earned commission of up to tens of thousands solely with this sale. Of course she would be jubilant.
  • After leaving his house address to the promoter, Lu Chen brought Qiqi to the children’s amusement park on the first floor.
  • Lin Yijia had all kinds of doubts in her heart. After bidding goodbye to Hu Hong and the others, she ran toward Lu Chen and Qiqi.
  • “Lu Chen, how do you know General Manager Xing?” Lin Yijia’s attitude was extremely different from just now. This was the first time she showed a friendly smile to Lu Chen.
  • “I don’t know him, but he knows me.” Lu Chen turned his head to glance at her and said indifferently.
  • Lin Yijia rolled her eyes after listening to his words. Are you telling me that General Manager Xing is trying to butter you up?
  • Although she despised Lu Chen’s arrogance, she wouldn’t show it at the moment as she had other intentions.
  • “Oh, Lu Chen, I want to buy a dress but it costs about 20,000. It’s too expensive. Can you lend me your Ultimate VIP card?” Lin Yijia had heard clearly that the Ultimate VIP card given by Xing Bing to Lu Chen was the ticket to purchase anything in this mall for free.
  • “Here you go.” Lu Chen handed the card to Lin Yijia. The shopping mall would pay for everything he had purchased with this card at the end of the month. Since Lin Yijia was his sister-in-law, he didn’t mind whether she spent 20,000 or 200,000 with the card.
  • “Thank you, Lu Chen!” Lin Yijia quickly took the Ultimate VIP card from him and kissed Qiqi's cheek excitedly.
  • “My dear Qiqi, I’m going to buy new clothes too.”
  • Looking at how delighted Lin Yijia was, Lu Chen shook his head and left with Qiqi.
  • Lin Yijia went to a clothing store of a French imported brand to buy the dress she had been eyeing for a long time but couldn’t afford. However, she didn’t return the card to Lu Chen after that. Instead, she went to meet her mother at her company with the card.
  • “Mum, look at me. Isn’t my dress pretty?” As soon as Wang Xue walked out from the company, Lin Yijia immediately showed off her new dress, beaming with pride.
  • Wang Xue looked at her dress and asked in surprise, “This Chanel dress is imported from France. It costs a few ten thousands. Where did you get the money from?”
  • “It’s free,” Lin Yijia replied to her mother’s doubt.
  • “Free? Are you kidding me?” Wang Xue didn’t seem to believe her.
  • “It’s all thanks to this card.” Lin Yijia showed her the Ultimate VIP card as if she was doing a magic trick.
  • “What’s this?” Wang Xue asked curiously while scanning the card.
  • “The Ultimate VIP card of New Skylight Mall. With this card, I can buy anything in the mall for free!” Lin Yijia explained.
  • Wang Xue frowned as she didn’t believe her daughter’s words.
  • New Skylight Mall was one of the biggest malls in Chongqing. Although her daughter was already in her final year in university, she was still a student. How was it possible for her to own such a card?
  • “Actually, this card belongs to Lu Chen. Somehow he was lucky enough to know General Manager Xing of New Skylight Mall. General Manager Xing gave him this card just now, and I got it from him.” Lin Yijia explained again.
  • “Well, in that case, you don’t have to return this card to him. He’s just a piece of trash. He doesn’t deserve to own this Ultimate VIP card,” Wang Xue nodded her head and immediately wanted to take the Ultimate VIP card as her own.
  • “I agree! Mum, let’s go shopping with this card!” Lin Yijia said excitedly.
  • Wang Xue nodded her head and walked toward New Skylight Mall with her daughter.
