Chapter 35 Forensic Doctor Lin is going to be on TV!
Lin Meiqi was sent home by Feng Charlie, and went upstairs after saying goodbye to him.
As soon as I turned the stairs, I saw a bunch of lilies placed at the door from afar.
Lin Meiqi's heart started beating wildly. This time she was sure it wasn't Liang Yifeng, because both of them were at the scene just now and he didn't have time to deliver the bouquet here.
Who is that? A pursuer, or a threat?
Lin Meiqi felt that the latter possibility was more likely. Could it be that the person who had been observing and following her downstairs before appeared again?
Lin Meiqi ran to the window next to the corridor and looked out. The woods were pitch black and she could not see anything.
Feng Charlie had already gotten into the car, and the vehicle was heading in another direction on campus.
Looking away, Lin Meiqi was puzzled as to what this bouquet of lilies meant. What does it mean?
She took the lily in her hand, opened the door and threw it on the ground with a "bang", intending to throw it into a trash can when she went out tomorrow.
But that night, Lin Meiqi tossed and turned, suffering from insomnia, and didn't know what time she fell asleep.
I also had a long dream in which a dark shadow followed me all the way.
Fortunately, when I woke up, I found myself in bed, breathing heavily, and it took me a long time to come to my senses.
Lin Meiqi touched her forehead and found that she was sweating. It seemed that the chase in the dream was quite intense.
With a "swish", Lin Meiqi opened the curtains and looked out the window.
The rain has stopped and the sky is clear.
She changed into a thinner coat and did not forget to take the bouquet of lilies in her hand before going out.
When she was leaving, Yuanyuan, who was on her way to school, saw her. She held her mother's hand, turned to look at Lin Meiqi, and asked, "Sister, is someone pursuing you? This flower is so beautiful!"
Lin Meiqi smiled bitterly, shook her head, then raised the corners of her lips and said, "Yuanyuan, be good and study hard."
After saying goodbye to Yuanyuan, Lin Meiqi walked to a place where she couldn't be seen, found a trash can, and threw the bouquet into it.
Behind her, a man in a black hoodie disappeared into the shadows.
When he saw Lin Meiqi throwing flowers, he took a photo with a "click".
Lin Meiqi rode a bicycle to the serious crime unit. When she arrived, Charlie Feng was no longer in the office. He had taken people out for a visit.
Xie Zhiruo was stroking her cheek as she pondered over something.
Seeing Lin Meiqi taking off her coat and coming over to receive the coffee, she hurriedly asked, "Forensic Doctor Lin, did you know that Gu Group is going to hold a product launch conference today?"
Lin Meiqi shook her head: "I really don't know about this."
"The police officer who was on a field trip just now called and said that Gu Mingxuan's eldest son Gu Hongda was actually presiding over the meeting. Originally, only senior executives were supposed to be present today. Unexpectedly, a luxury car drove over, and the eldest son Gu Hongda, dressed in a suit and tie, walked into the venue..."
"What?"
"Because the murder of the wealthy businessman has attracted media attention, reporters were also outside the building taking pictures to record it. After the major change in the group, who will take over? I thought several senior executives would attend together, but who would have thought that it would be Gu Hongda who came."
Lin Meiqi sat down and asked in confusion, "So what this means is that Gu Hongda's previous Buddhist attitude and his lack of interest in business were all fake?"
Xie Zhiruo was also confused. "If you say it's fake, it's not that fake, because he is indeed practicing. He shaved his head before, but his parents strongly opposed it and didn't want him to show his bald head in public, so he had to grow his hair back. However, he still goes to burn incense and worship Buddha every few days. It is said that he has found a master, the famous Master Sheng Yuan. Maybe he came back this time because there is really no one else in the family except him, and he returned to the business world for his mother's wish. It's not impossible."
"That depends on his performance. Is he a last-minute rescue or has been prepared in advance? It is not difficult to find out how familiar he is with the group's business."
Xie Zhiruo nodded.
"The report will come out tomorrow, and we'll see how the media describes his current state. If a person who doesn't care about the business world performs better than the media expected, or even surpasses Gu Mingxuan's original control over the company, then it's worth questioning."
Lin Meiqi nodded.
She took a sip of coffee and asked, "Would you like to go out with me?"
Xie Zhiruo asked curiously: "Where are we going?"
Lin Meiqi said: "A large supermarket nearby sells red wine from the Gu Group."
"Forensic Doctor Lin, didn't you buy a bottle before?"
"I bought a bottle and tested it, and there was nothing strange in the ingredients. But since the matter has been led to red wine, I think my research is far from enough. This time I plan to find a few more bottles from different batches. Since Gu Mingxuan cares so much about red wine, will the formula be changed or something?
His ideas and obsessions should also be reflected in the evolution of the product. ”
Xie Zhiruo suddenly realized: "That makes sense. If we can't find out by asking, we can check it ourselves."
The two walked down the stairs side by side.
Xie Zhiruo suddenly spoke up: "Forensic Doctor Lin, you have inspired me. Even if they don't take us out to interview, we can still create opportunities ourselves and get closer to the core of the matter!"
"yes!"
I arrived at the supermarket where Lin Meiqi bought Gu Group’s red wine last time and found that corner.
Lin Meiqi also found the waiter and asked if there were any other batches of red wine in reserve.
Just as I got a positive answer, I suddenly saw a group of people rushing over: "Make way, police!"
When I looked up, it turned out to be Charlie Feng?
The moment he saw Lin Meiqi, he was also stunned: "Why are you here too?"
Lin Meiqi said, "Let me take a look at the different batches of red wine."
Feng Charlie smiled: "What a coincidence, me too."
He found the waiter next to him and asked him to take out all the Gu brand red wine in the store.
The waiter was a little confused as to why two people in a row were so interested in the red wine, but he did not dare to delay because he knew it was the sergeant from the nearby West Kowloon Police Station, so he hurried away.
After a while, the waiter brought out two large boxes of red wine and introduced them to Charlie Feng: "These are two different batches. Oh, there is actually another batch mixed in here. We usually put the ones that have been there for a long time on the shelf, and then take out new ones after they are sold out... Because Gu's brand red wine is not selling well, the replacement speed is very slow. Sometimes it only needs to be replaced every few days, unlike other red wine brands that are replaced more frequently."
Charlie Feng nodded: "Are you sure these are all here?"
"Yes."
"Okay." Feng Charlie signaled the police officer behind him to take all these away.
After leaving the supermarket, Feng Charlie deliberately slowed down his pace and walked side by side with Lin Meiqi.
He asked, "What did you think of? About these red wines."
Lin Meiqi said: "Nothing, just a guess, we have to go back and check to know for sure."
Feng Charlie nodded and revealed the latest news to her: "We got a new clue today. One of the marketing executives of Gu Group said that Gu Mingxuan asked him to do one thing a week before his death, which was to recycle the red wine that had already been distributed."
"What?"
Xie Zhiruo was also shocked, and came up to ask, "Recycling? Doesn't that mean there's something wrong with this batch of red wine?"
"Yeah, if it's not an emergency, it probably won't be recycled."
"Why didn't the executives tell us about such an important matter? And they didn't recall the products. Aren't they still in the warehouse of the mall?"
“That’s the problem.”
Feng Charlie said, "The executive defended himself by saying that he did it for the group's reputation and that he didn't tell the police because he didn't know that once the public knew about it, the group's products that needed to be recalled would likely be detrimental to the group's brand, thus affecting products in other business lines. After all, the red wine line is too small for them now, and there is no need to lose the big picture for the small, so they kept it secret from the police at the beginning."
"But they didn't hide the recall from us..."
"The senior officials' reason was that they were still evaluating the importance of the wine business."
“There are problems with the new batch of products, and we still need to evaluate it?”
"Of course, as capitalists, their first priority is profit. Gu Mingxuan proposed a recall, but several executives objected, saying that if the formula was just flawed and affected the taste, it was unnecessary and they could just improve the next batch. Seeing everyone's opposition, Gu Mingxuan did not explain the reason for the recall, but some people reported that after a few days, he seemed to be less insistent on this matter."
"Could it be that since then, he has sought help from a Feng Shui master to overcome this disaster?"
“It’s possible.”
Back at the Serious Crime Unit, Lin Meiqi compared the three batches of red wine.
From the outside, there is no difference except the production date.
The red wine she tested last time was normal, so the problem was not discovered in time. This time, she had to inspect it carefully after moving it out from the depths of the warehouse.
Soon, Lin Meiqi detected a drug ingredient in the red wine. The amount of drug in the wine was enough to kill a mouse.
However, because Gu Mingxuan was drinking high-end red wine when he died, not the brand of red wine he produced, he was not affected, and no drug components were detected in his body.
Why do drugs appear in the production process of red wine? It doesn't seem like the result of increasing or decreasing the dosage of a certain substance when adjusting the formula, but rather it seems like it was deliberately added by humans.
Lin Meiqi was thinking about it when Feng Charlie pushed the door open and saw the test report that had just been generated.
She handed the report to Charlie Feng and said, "Although this drug ingredient is not fatal to humans, it is very likely that consumers will feel uncomfortable after drinking it if it is put on the market. If it is found that this ingredient is added, it will be a blow to the group, causing no one to buy their products and damage the business."
"Who wants to do this?"
"It seems that his target is not consumers, but blackmail, and the target of the threat is Gu Mingxuan's family."
"Then his youngest son was probably also victimized by the same family. It seems that we need to strengthen the 24-hour inspection of Liu Yanbing and Gu Hongda. They must be under our noses. They may be in danger."
Feng Charlie said this and left the forensic room. He went outside to instruct them to strengthen the defense and left orders waiting for personnel to be sent.
Two people from the Gu family have died, and the red wine has also been tampered with. Who is that person who has such a strong hatred towards their family?
The biggest problem is that when investigating surrounding tasks, no such motivated suspects were found, unless...
Lin Meiqi walked out of the forensic room at this time, and her eyes met with Feng Charlie's. They suddenly said in unison: "Competitor?!"
However, the competitors’ words cover a wider range of aspects.
Because Gu Group is involved in too many business lines, it is unclear which line suddenly caused the feud.
Or sometimes the competition does not occur within the same industry, but it squeezes the development space of small businesses in certain other industries. These also need to be screened one by one, which still takes time.
Feng Charlie always felt that there was not enough time and the efficiency was not high enough, but manpower could only maintain it to this extent.
That afternoon, the phone suddenly rang. Feng Charlie answered the call. It was from Lingyu Garden Villa.
After hanging up the phone, Charlie Feng looked serious.
"Looks like we have to make another trip. We found new clues in the Garden Villa District, on the back hill."
"Back mountain?" Lin Meiqi was curious.
Feng Charlie explained to her: "We checked the nearby surveillance cameras and found that except for a few owners, no one else entered the gate. But those owners had no motive, so we went around to the back of the community. There are surveillance cameras all around the community, and there is also a camera at the back. But the camera has been broken for a month, and the property management didn't send anyone to fix it."
"You're so rich, but you still don't want to repair your villa?"
"There is a mountain outside the surveillance camera. The garden villa is backed by Lingyu Mountain, and the mountain leading to the villa area is quite steep and made of rocks. Normal people cannot climb up and down there, unless they are professional climbers or have extremely good skills. Otherwise, no one can enter that place. The property management thought it was too much trouble, so when no one noticed, they didn't do anything about it."
"So you suspect that the suspect climbed in from the back hill?"
"That's right, so I sent people to search the mountain these days to find any evidence left by the suspect."
"Have you got it?"
"No evidence was found, but one thing was discovered."
"What is it?"
"It's a dead parrot. It looks like it was domesticated. It probably died of poisoning. Bring it back to Dr. Lin for a test and we'll know for sure."
"Let's go to the scene first." Feng Charlie called Da Huang.
The two got in the car and drove to the scene.
It would take a lot of effort for the police officers to climb over the wall outside the villa area and reach the stone mountain. The rocks were too steep, and even with ropes tied around their bodies, they could fall at any time.
But on the boulder, the yellow and white parrot was lying on that boulder.
There were some white traces next to the small corpse, which was the liquid that the parrot vomited from its mouth.
"Sir, we didn't disturb the scene. It was like this when we arrived. It seems that the suspect threw the bird here when he left."
"But why did he bring a bird? If he wanted to do an experiment to see if he could poison a living thing, he could do it at home."
"Because this is not the suspect's bird," Feng Charlie said, "it is very likely that it is Gu Mingxuan's pet bird in the villa. Have you found a bird cage nearby?"
A police officer climbed down from higher up the mountain and handed the small birdcage to Charlie Feng.
“Found it.”
"Ask the property management staff if they have noticed that they keep birds at home?"
"yes."
After going down the stone hill, the police officer ran away. Half an hour later, the answer came. The police officer shouted from the bottom of the mountain: "The property management said it was correct. They once kept a bird."
It gradually became clear that the bird's death was related to red wine.
A guess emerged in Feng Charlie's mind.
"Let's go and take this bird back!"
"Why did the murderer make it so complicated, killing people and putting drugs in the wine?"
On the way back, Dahuang asked Feng Charlie while sitting in the car.
"It's simple. Not only does he want to kill the Gu family, he also wants to destroy his company."
"Wow, does he hate him so much? It's impossible that the whole family has offended him? Even if they are business competitors, isn't killing Gu Mingxuan enough? His son has never been involved in the center of his so-called business empire."
"Yes, the competitor is just a suspicion at the moment. Things are becoming more and more unexpected."
Feng Charlie steered the wheel and drove quickly towards the serious crime squad, with the street scenery passing by behind him.
"At present, the motive is the most important thing. It is not consistent with the fact that someone who is dissatisfied with both the father and his son and his company would go to such great lengths to plan this."
"Yeah, it seems like this guy can climb a rocky mountain with his bare hands, so he must be very skilled. But those businessmen, some of whom have big bellies, don't seem to be able to do such a thing. It doesn't seem right no matter how I think about it."
“Crack!”
There was a loud thunder in broad daylight, which scared Da Huang so much that the sky flashed bright and dark.
Da Huang couldn't help but sigh: "Why is it always raining recently?"
"It's like this every year at this time of year. There's plenty of moisture. It's stuffy if it doesn't rain, but it's good if it does."
Fortunately, Feng Charlie prepared an umbrella in advance, otherwise he would be afraid of getting wet by the slightest rain when he brought the physical evidence up there. After all, it’s such a big birdcage, but I don’t have a big enough evidence bag to put it in.
Soon the road was wet and puddles formed on the roadside. When pedestrians walked, water splashed on their trouser legs. They quickly walked to the curb, and some took shelter in shops.
Feng Charlie drove his car carefully. There was a big puddle in front of the serious crime team, so Feng Charlie deliberately drove away from that area.
Da Huang said, "No one has come here, please fix it. Every time it rains, there will be a puddle this big. When I first came to the serious crime team, I forgot to do it several times when I went home at night, and I stepped into the puddle directly, getting half of my trouser leg wet."
"I heard the road will be repaired soon. Is that true, Sir?"
Feng Charlie nodded: "But it's not up to me to decide whether to repair it or not."
"What if it gets delayed again?"
"Then we can only pray that it rains less this year."
The two men got out of the car, carefully gathered the evidence under Charlie Feng's big umbrella, and quickly ran into the building.
Dahuang breathed a sigh of relief as he was indeed not wet.
Halfway through the walk, Charlie Feng said, "I have something to ask Team B. Go upstairs and tell Forensic Doctor Lin to test the toxic composition of the corner of the parrot's lip."
Da Huang said "OK" and ran up quickly. After handing all the evidence to Lin Meiqi, Lin Meiqi asked, "Where is the Sergeant?"
"Oh, he's doing something and asked you to get tested first."
"good."
Lin Meiqi walked back to the forensic room, carefully wiped the liquid vomited by the parrot onto a cotton swab, put it into a test tube, and proceeded to the next step of testing.
This busy work took the whole afternoon.
I went downstairs to buy some chocolate-flavored snacks and sat there crunching away for a while. When I felt my energy was replenished, I continued working.
After returning to the main case team's office, Charlie Feng was busy. The police officers who were sent out collected new information. He listed them one by one on the whiteboard, arranged them in groups, and kept thinking about them.
Finally, the result came out from Lin Meiqi.
Lin Meiqi took a sip of coffee and handed over the test report: "It is indeed the same drug as in the new batch of red wine from Gu Group, but for parrots, the toxin is stronger and will cause a rapid increase in blood pressure, damage to liver and kidney function, and thus lead to blood vessel rupture. However, the dose of poison contained in its body is not enough to kill a person. In other words, for adults, this dose will cause physical discomfort, but due to personal physical conditions, some people may not be obvious, while others may be more serious. Most of the people who drink are adults, so it probably won't be life-threatening."
Charlie Feng pondered.
After a moment, he spoke, sorting out the information he had obtained before: "From the information obtained from the senior executives of Gu Mingxuan, Gu Mingxuan was quite anxious at first and asked the senior executives to retrieve the red wine immediately. The senior executives asked him to clarify the reason for the retrieval. But because it was a serious matter, it was very likely that the news would leak out and be used by the media to make a big fuss, thus affecting the sales of the company's other products. So Gu Mingxuan did not make any request, but only asked for a recall as soon as possible, but later..."
"What happened next?"
"Soon, he became less resolute. I think there is a reason for this change, and it is likely due to his better understanding of poisons."
Lin Meiqi agreed: "Someone put the same poison into the red wine, or let the parrot eat the poison and die after eating it. Maybe after Gu Mingxuan found out, he received a similar threatening note saying that the same drug was also put into his red wine. Seeing that the parrot was really dead, Gu Mingxuan became anxious and wanted to withdraw the red wine, and the other party just said that it should be the latest batch. But he should have asked someone to test it later and found that it was not poison, but a drug that would affect the human body, but the harm was not too great. Later, when he thought of the executive's advice to him, he calmed down."
"He is struggling with what to do now. Out of concern that this incident might go viral, he even sought out a Feng Shui master to create a formation and added red wine into the formation in order to suppress this red wine crisis. He hopes that no one will find out that the red wine caused the damage to his body, and that he can successfully get through this crisis."
"Isn't this just deceiving yourself?"
"But I think the reason why he didn't recall the product is because there must be a reason for the recall, right? The recall would definitely be noticed by the media, and if it were tested, it would be easy to find that there were drugs in it."
"It's possible. It sounds like a dilemma."
"This is just the beginning for the murderer. If the drugs don't cause an uproar in public opinion, the second and third batches may be released again with larger dosages," Lin Meiqi speculated.
Feng Charlie sat on a stool, and several police officers were listening nearby, also feeling puzzled.
"Is poisoning so easy to happen? It seems like it was done by an insider!"
"This person must have a very low sense of morality. In order to bring down this company, he is willing to use all means, even including the health of consumers, and is not afraid of accidentally hurting anyone. Either his hatred for this company is too strong and he has gone crazy, or this person is not afraid of those who wear shoes, and there is no one around him who is worth caring about."
Feng Charlie stood up and placed his hands on the table. "In short, we need to recall all the red wine that Gu's Group put on the market to prevent consumers from drinking red wine containing drugs. We need to count the number of bottles, how many bottles of red wine were mixed in, what the distribution range was, and whether there were any areas that were specifically avoided, so that we can determine his behavioral characteristics."
After hearing this, the police officers took orders.
In the next two days, Feng Charlie and his team had a lot to do.
Before we had fully visited the relationships around the two victims, new tasks were added.
On the one hand, all red wine products of Gu Group must be removed from the shelves in Hong Kong. On the other hand, the workers in the factory must be investigated to see if there is any link that could have successfully mixed in the drugs.
After checking the surveillance footage, if it was not a worker, then maybe someone from outside the site entered the site and placed the drugs.
The technical investigators watched the surveillance footage day and night. After all, it was a month's worth of surveillance, so who knew when the video was released. My eyes were almost going blind, and I had to drink chrysanthemum tea to improve my eyesight so that I could hold on.
Several people took turns to watch it. If it didn't work, they would put a hot towel on their eyes. If they felt tired, they would apply it for a while and then continue watching.
Lin Meiqi passed by and couldn't help but sigh when she saw how hard they were working.
There has been no one in the serious crime team's office these past few days. Even Xie Zhiruo has been transferred away to do field work.
Occasionally, a police officer would rush back to the office, drink a sip of water, then immediately put down the cup in his hand and leave.
This is not a solution!
Lin Meiqi thought that she could still hold the cup and drink water while waiting for various test reports to come out, but they didn’t even have time to eat.
She tried twice to go on field trips, but was rejected by Charlie Feng.
What is Sha Zhan doing? Why don’t you let yourself go outside? There’s obviously a shortage of people.
On this day, Lin Meiqi finally seized the opportunity. As soon as Feng Charlie walked into the office, Lin Meiqi hurried to greet him.
She had changed into casual clothes and stood in front of Feng Charlie with her chest puffed out.
"Sergeant, give me some work, I also need to do some field work!"
Feng Charlie was drinking water. When he heard this, he gulped down a mouthful and almost spit it out: "Can't you take a break? Why do you always run to dangerous places?"
"I am also your police officer, Sir! I can be deployed by you at any time. Do you think that I am a drag on the team because you don't use me?"
Charlie Feng looked at Lin Meiqi.
Her round hair was tied up in a high ponytail, and the fluffy hair on both sides made her look so cute, like a little hamster with bared teeth and claws.
"I'm just worried that your body can't bear it."
"You can withstand such high-intensity pressure, so why can't I? Sergeant, I think you are underestimating me!"
Feng Charlie knew that she was just trying to provoke him. In fact, as a forensic doctor, Lin Meiqi should just do her job well. There was really no need for her to go out with them.
However, it would be fine if we didn't bring it when we have enough manpower, but we are really busy now.
Feng Charlie thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll give you a task that's just right for you."
"What mission?" Lin Meiqi asked curiously.
"There's an interview on TV, you need to go and participate."
Feng Charlie put down his water glass. "I was originally planning to change my clothes and attend the event, but I just happened to be busy with some work, so I'll leave it to you. I contacted the TV station specifically and allocated a prime time slot. You will represent the police and explain the reason why the red wine was taken off the shelves. Don't reveal too much about the case. You have been in the newspaper before, so you must be clear about the boundaries here. You are more suitable than anyone else to go."
"Actually, I can do a harder job," said Lin Meiqi.
"This is quite difficult. It's mainly about the right degree, you know? It's hard to judge. What if you say too much or too little, or leak information related to the crime, then it will violate the confidentiality clause. I don't feel safe handing it over to others. You are more cautious than them, so it should be fine. The news broadcast can be removed faster. We are now urging the Gu Group to execute, but they are too slow to react."
"Why is it so slow?"
"The Gu Group is now ownerless. Gu Hongda can't grasp the key points. The company is in a mess when he just took over. It seems that he doesn't understand anything. On the contrary, after we told him about this important matter, I see that his attitude is also indifferent."
"The reaction is a bit strange. Could he have done this? Why does he take it so lightly when it comes to consumers?"
"We were also suspicious, but when we asked, we found out that he usually behaves like this. Imagine, a man who has shaved his head and practiced Buddhism, he would not be at home unless he could. He never cared about the company's property before, and he would stay in a temple for several months. It is said that his attitude has always been like this."
"Oh," Lin Meiqi understood, "So I want to urge those offline merchants to take the initiative to remove the product from the shelves, right? After all, consumers will also contact the merchants if there is a problem with the drink."
"Yes, your job is also very important."
Charlie Feng subconsciously placed his hands on her shoulders, looked at her and said, "The burden is now on you."
Standing up, he suddenly felt that he had been too close and that something was wrong, so he quickly withdrew his hand and changed the subject.
"It's almost time. I'll take you to buy some clothes, and then we'll rush to the TV station."
"Buy clothes?" Lin Meiqi was shocked. "No need. This outfit of mine will do."
"Are you sure? It's a simple white kawaii T-shirt. What's that on it? A cat head? You need to be more serious in that occasion. You don't need to wear a police uniform, and a forensic white coat is not acceptable. However, a slightly more serious blazer is fine. You've finally been on TV, so you have to pay attention to your image."
Feng Charlie took Lin Meiqi downstairs and pushed her into the car without saying anything.
"But I can go home and find one," said Lin Meiqi.
"There's no time left. It's too far to go back to Kowloon Walled City now," said Charlie Feng.
"not to mention……"
"Besides what?"
Feng Charlie said "Nothing" and stopped talking.
Lin Meiqi looked out the window as Charlie Feng quickly started the car and drove towards a department store.
After getting off the car, Feng Charlie looked at his watch.
"Ten minutes to buy a set of clothes. Come on, let's speed up."
Lin Meiqi almost dropped her eyes in shock: "You only have ten minutes, and you still have to buy it? Can you pick the right one?"
"Can."
Feng Charlie took her all the way into the mall, and Lin Meiqi realized that this mall was different from the ones she had visited before. It was full of high-end goods, such as Italian and French brands, all of which were luxury goods.
Even if she used two years' salary, she couldn't afford one of those luxury bags.
This price is really too exaggerated!
Passing by the dazzling array of goods and seeing the price tags, Lin Meiqi was shocked again and again.
Soon, Charlie Feng took her to the SOVP brand and told the service staff to pick out a beautiful formal dress for her, in a lively color, not black, gray or brown, suitable for her to wear on TV.
"Wow, this lady is on TV! Well, please follow me."
The salesperson quickly selected three sets of clothes for Lin Meiqi and placed them in front of the two of them: a playful pink suit, a beige suit, and a low-key luxurious blue suit. None of the colors were highly saturated.
Lin Meiqi liked it at first sight, because the condition was excellent, and most importantly, it did not look as stiff and boring as other suits.
Feng Charlie glanced at his watch and said, "There are still five minutes left. You can choose a set."
Lin Meiqi searched for a moment and picked the light blue suit: "Okay."
Lin Meiqi entered the fitting room, quickly changed her clothes, put on a new suit, and when she looked in front of the mirror, she was shocked.
Is this still her?
Originally, suits are more mature and not suitable for her cute baby face, but this suit is just right, matching her temperament, mature yet playful.
"That's it." Feng Charlie said, and went straight to the waiter to pay.
Lin Meiqi was shocked when she saw the price of the brand. This whole set of clothes cost 82,000 Hong Kong dollars.
"Oh my god, if you ask me to buy it, I don't think I'll ever be able to afford it in my lifetime. It's too expensive."
When Feng Charlie came back, he saw Lin Meiqi secretly putting down a tag with a price on it.
The service staff helped Lin Meiqi cut off the label.
"Two minutes, time went by too fast."
Charlie Feng didn't care about anything else. He reached out and grabbed Lin Meiqi's wrist, and quickly strode to the shoe area, "There's still time to buy another pair of high heels."
"Only two minutes left. Hey, are you sure you'll make it in time?"
"Of course, I can shorten the driving time."
Lin Meiqi: “…”
When he arrived at a row of brand-name shoe cabinets, Feng Charlie immediately fell in love with a pair of matching beige high heels.
This pair of high heels matches her suit and can be matched with other clothes in the future. More importantly, the style is simple and elegant and looks good.
He picked one out at first sight and didn't have time to choose for Lin Meiqi.
"That's it, you try it."
Lin Meiqi had no choice but to try it on, and then looked at herself in the mirror. The dress was already very slim-fitting, which showed off her great figure. When she put on the high heels, she looked taller and more elegant.
I didn’t expect that Feng Charlie had good taste. This pair of shoes looked ordinary, but they looked quite nice after he put them on.
Lin Meiqi glanced at his watch and said, "Sergeant, the time is up..."
Without saying a word, Charlie Feng swiped his card. This pair of shoes was more expensive than a whole suit and cost him 120,000 Hong Kong dollars.
"As expected of a rich second generation, he is really rich!"
Lin Meiqi looked at Feng Charlie's posture of swiping the card and couldn't help but sigh, the man who swipes the card is so handsome.
