Chapter 153 Why is the watch so expensive?

Due to traffic jam on the road, it was already 6:10 when Shen Yuan arrived at the agreed location.

After parking the car and getting out of the driver's seat, Shen Yuan looked up and saw Amelia Su standing at the door.

Today she was wearing the same white long skirt that she had worn when they first met, revealing a section of her fair and smooth calves. The skirt was a little loose, and when the breeze blew, it clung to her body, and one could tell there must be something beautiful underneath.

Shen Yuan had a deep understanding of this. The last time he hugged her downstairs, Shen Yuan knew that this girl was very attractive.

Shen Yuan walked forward and said, "Why are you waiting here? Why don't you just sit inside and wait?"

Su Xuewei lifted her hair in front of her forehead: "I'm afraid you won't be able to find it when you come in later."

"How could that be?"

Shen Yuan smiled: "You are so beautiful, I can find you at a glance."

Amelia Su’s pretty face flushed, she lowered her head shyly, and then followed Shen Yuan into the restaurant.

After the two sat down, the waiter quickly brought over a menu, and Amelia Su pushed it towards Shen Yuan.

"You order."

"How much is enough?"

Shen Yuan asked jokingly.

"Um."

Su Xuewei nodded sincerely.

The warm yellow light in the restaurant fell on her face, her straight nose, her rosy lips, and her cheeks still flushed from being teased by Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan was not polite and ordered three dishes, one soup and two rice dishes.

While eating, Shen Yuan found a topic to talk about: "You have to go to work every day and take care of your mother and your brother. Aren't you tired?"

Su Xuewei shook her head gently: "Not tired."

Shen Yuan knew that she had to go back to cook every day, so he asked again: "What about when you are not at home at noon?"

Su Xuewei explained: "I will make it in the morning and put it in the rice cooker to keep it warm, and you can eat it right away."

"I see."

Shen Yuan paused and said, "I told you last time that I would help you find a house. You should be able to move in by the weekend."

Su Xuewei shook her head: "Actually, there's no need. We live quite well there."

Shen Yuan knew she would refuse, so he said calmly, "Anyway, my house has already been rented. If you don't want to live there, just leave it there. The monthly rent isn't much anyway."

Su Xuewei raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at Shen Yuan. She didn't expect Shen Yuan to find a house so quickly. She came here this time and wanted to refuse the matter in person.

No matter how much Shen Yuan rented the house for, it was definitely not something she could afford. She was even prepared to cut down on her living expenses this month for tonight's dinner.

She is currently in the internship stage and her monthly salary is only over 2,000 yuan.

The meal for two people would cost a maximum of 300 yuan, but for her, it was a huge expense, almost equivalent to her family's living expenses for a week.

"Then how about this?"

Su Xuewei thought of a compromise: "The rent is considered as a loan from me, and I will pay it back to you when I make money in the future."

"Can."

Shen Yuan thought to himself, when you pay me back, you will all be mine, and we are family, so we should have different opinions.

"Boss Shen, is it really you?"

Suddenly, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from behind my head.

Shen Yuan turned around and saw a man in his 30s, whom he seemed to have seen somewhere.

“Boss Shen, it’s me, Dong Qitao, Xiao Dong!”

When Shen Yuan heard this, he immediately remembered that it was Chen Na's blind date. They had even eaten at the same table at that time.

"Hello."

Shen Yuan extended his hand to him.

He vaguely remembered that Dong Qitao was quite capable of handling things. Knowing that he had no chance with Chen Na, he simply became Shen Yuan's supporting actor and even poured wine for him during the meal.

Dong Qitao smiled and shook hands with Shen Yuan, saying, "I had dinner here with some good brothers today. I didn't expect to run into you here. But I see you didn't drink today, so why don't we have a couple of drinks?"

"It doesn't matter. There will be a chance later."

Shen Yuan said politely: “I remember you are an agent for sports equipment, right?”

Dong Qitao nodded and said, "Yes."

Shen Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, maybe we will have business dealings in the future. Anyway, we have WeChat, so we can contact each other if we need anything."

This is what Dong Qitao was waiting for. To do business, one needs to make many connections and pave the way.

When a person's money accumulates to a certain level, in addition to the difference in wallets, there is also a gap in resources.

For example, he had negotiated an order before. He had three or four drinks with them, went to Shang K twice, and even asked them to go to 998, but he still couldn't get it done despite trying his best.

As a result, a second-generation businessman easily snatched the order from him by relying on his family connections.

This is exactly the kind of resource Dong Qitao lacks, and he'd love to make friends with as many as he can.

If the connection is ineffective, there is no loss in just saying hello. If the connection is effective, it can bring direct economic benefits in the future, and you will make a lot of money.

"No problem, I'm sorry to bother you then, bye."

Dong Qitao said goodbye to Shen Yuan with a smile. When he left, he secretly glanced at Su Xuewei and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

Shen Yuan is really having fun. He has already been to Chen Na's house and met her parents, but now he is messing around with other girls.

This girl has a completely different style from Chen Na. One is pure and the other is intellectual. But in terms of appearance and figure, the two have their own merits.

After returning to his seat, a friend next to Dong Qitao immediately asked, "A Tao, who is this? Why are you taking the initiative to go over and say hello?"

Dong Qitao is already the most successful one in his own circle. He runs his own business, drives a 5 Series, and bought his own house.

So Dong Qitao's servility in trying to please others made him look a little cheap in their eyes.

Dong Qitao laughed at himself: "I mentioned it to you before, the boyfriend of my blind date."

Dong Qitao felt quite ashamed when talking about this. Not only did he cause a misunderstanding, but he also lost two bottles of Wuliangye and a pack of Huazi.

The man next to them glanced at the table and said, "Looks ordinary, just a little handsome."

Dong Qitao shook his head: "You just didn't go over to see it, but the watch he has on his wrist is enough to buy two of my cars."

Everyone was stunned at the same time. Dong Qitao's 5 Series cost more than 400,000 yuan, which means that the whole watch cost more than 800,000 yuan?

Someone reacted and asked, "What kind of watches are so expensive?"

Dong Qitao loves to check out watches when he has nothing to do, so he recognized it as soon as he walked over and explained, "Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, 2640 frosted gold, costs over 800,000."

“.”

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. This was too depressing.

Dong Qitao is the person they look up to, but when they go out for a meal, they can see people who are several levels higher than Dong Qitao.

You have to know that a house in their hometown only costs 600,000 to 800,000 yuan, and a watch is enough for them to buy a house.

One of the brothers, who had just spent a month's salary to buy a Longines watch, subconsciously retracted his hand at this moment.

Everyone present has felt the disparity in life and does not want to continue this topic.

But the brother next to him didn't give up and asked again: "Logically speaking, such rich people shouldn't come to this kind of place to eat."

In his opinion, since he is so rich, he should go to high-end restaurants. How could people like them afford such a people-friendly restaurant?

"Then I don't know."

Dong Qitao could probably guess that he was probably taking care of the girl opposite him, but he was too lazy to explain.

"Is that girl your blind date? She looks very young."

Someone else asked curiously.

Dong Qitao shook his head: "No."

Everyone present was stunned for half a second, then immediately understood and couldn't help but sigh: "Rich people are really playing it cool, with red flags flying at home and colorful flags fluttering outside."

The people next to him also smacked their lips and said, "The key is that they are all beautiful women."

It’s said that everyone wants to be rich.

Not only can you be satisfied materially, but you can also play with beautiful women at will.

This kind of beauty is a scarce resource for them, but they probably still have to screen them.

The key is that the women who have been screened may not necessarily look down on them.

Don’t you think this is infuriating?

Dong Qitao glanced in that direction and said, "We should stay out of the business of rich people."

After the meal, Su Xuewei went to pay the bill, and Shen Yuan simply let her go. If she was not allowed to treat the meal, she would probably feel guilty again.

Shen Yuan suggested going for a walk, and Amelia Su did not object. There happened to be a park diagonally opposite.

Shen Yuan couldn't remember how long it had been since he had been to the park. As he strolled along the tree-lined path with Amelia Su, he thought about it carefully.

I think the last time I came here was in the first year of high school?

With my first love Luo Bingying.

It's been 6 years.

Shen Yuan shook his head, trying not to think about this person.

The street lights in the park have been in disrepair for a long time and the lights are very dim. This may be one of the reasons why square dance aunties don’t come here. Young people don’t like to visit parks either, so there are very few people.

But from time to time you can see a few stray cats walking slowly by.

Su Xuewei saw the stray cat and squatted down to tease it.

However, most of the stray cats here are very alert and will jump away quickly when they see someone reaching out.

Shen Yuan smiled and said, “You have to bring cat food next time. No one will pay attention to you if they don’t have food.”

People are realistic, and cats are also realistic.

Su Xuewei puffed out her cute cheeks and didn't refute.

The evening breeze was cool and made people feel comfortable. Shen Yuan couldn't help but hold Amelia Su's smooth little hand.

Su Xuewei subconsciously wanted to break free, but Shen Yuan was very strong, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free, so she simply gave up.

Shen Yuan felt the softness in his hand, and thought of the beautiful scenery in the rain last time, and couldn't help feeling a little distracted.

Su Xuewei probably guessed what Shen Yuan wanted to do, and said timidly: "This is a park, you can't mess around."

"What are you talking about? Why would I mess around?"

Shen Yuan pretended not to understand, but his actions revealed what he was thinking.

When they reached a pavilion, he put down the soft thing in his hand and put his arms around her soft waist.

"Can you please not do this?"

Su Xuewei moved closer to him with her hands on his chest with a pleading look.

"It's not like you haven't hugged me before, why are you so nervous?"

Shen Yuan, the old hunter, is experienced and knows the principle of taking every step carefully.

When Amelia Su had no strength to resist, Shen Yuan gently put her hand down, then leaned over and gently kissed her pink lips.
