Looking at the reward for the challenge, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as I suspected, the reward this time was a whopping 105 shop points, more than enough! Once I complete this challenge, my shop will be upgraded to seven stars!
Seven Star Shopping Mall.
Ye Chen was eager to try and was extremely excited.
As for the challenge itself, it's quite simple: just attend a charity gala.
That's easy, too simple.
Once we acquire this 10% stake in Cartier, even if we don't become Cartier's largest shareholder, we'll be close.
What are we waiting for? We have to take on this challenge!
Ye Chen exited the game and sent a message to Lu Songchao, the president of Cartier's Greater China region, indicating that he could attend the charity gala tomorrow.
"Received, Mr. Ye."
Lu Songchao replied almost instantly.
"By the way, Mr. Ye, are you attending the charity gala tomorrow alone, or with a female companion?"
Lu Songchao asked another question.
After seeing the message, Ye Chen thought for a moment. If it were an ordinary charity gala, Ning Shuang probably wouldn't be very interested, but tomorrow's event is Cartier's charity gala, and few girls can resist the temptation of jewelry.
Ye Chen did not reply to Lu Songchao immediately, but instead called Su Ningshuang first to ask if she wanted to go together.
"Cartier's charity gala?"
Su Ningshuang was somewhat surprised upon hearing the news.
“Cartier is also part of my business, so you don’t need to worry about anything when you go. Just treat it like a dinner party at your own company.”
Seeing that Su Ningshuang hesitated, Ye Chen answered.
"OK."
Knowing that Cartier was also her boyfriend's business, Su Ningshuang agreed. She had indeed been tempted, but she was too afraid to attend such a large-scale banquet.
Now that she heard that Cartier was also Ye Chen's business, Su Ningshuang was no longer so afraid.
"Um."
Ye Chen nodded and sent a message to Lu Songchao.
"I'll bring my girlfriend tomorrow."
"Okay, Mr. Ye, I will arrange everything. I will wait for Mr. Ye and your girlfriend to arrive."
After receiving confirmation, Lu Songchao immediately made the arrangements.
The next day at noon, Ye Chen accompanied Su Ning Shuang to a large shopping mall.
Since it's a large banquet, evening attire is required. Ye Chen can simply wear any custom-made suit.
Su Ningshuang didn't have one; it was too late for a private customization now, so Ye Chen accompanied Su Ningshuang to buy one.
Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang looked at several stores but couldn't find anything suitable. These stores did have a few nice clothes, but Ye Chen felt they didn't suit Ningshuang's style, and Ningshuang didn't like them either.
Finally, Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang arrived at a store that cost seven figures.
Although the clothes in this store are quite expensive, there are still quite a few customers. There is never a shortage of rich people in the world.
Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang toured the store together, and eventually, in the middle of the store, they both noticed a white long evening dress.
Ye Chen immediately took a liking to the white dress, feeling that it perfectly matched Ning Shuang's temperament, as if it were tailor-made for her.
Su Ningshuang looked at the evening gown with a sparkle in her eyes; she really liked the white dress.
"Excuse me, how can I help you?"
A salesperson came over and asked with a smile.
Ye Chen glanced at Su Ning Shuang, who was clearly smitten, and instantly understood her thoughts.
"I'll take this dress. Let's take my girlfriend to try it on."
Ye Chen pointed to the white dress and said to the salesperson.
"Sir, I'm so sorry, this garment is our store's prized possession and is not for sale to the public."
The salesperson glanced at it and immediately gave a practiced answer, clearly indicating that this evening gown was frequently inquired about.
Several customers nearby, upon hearing the words "the store's prized possession," also turned to look. They were all regulars at the store and very familiar with its layout.
Seeing that someone actually wanted to buy the store's prized possession, the customers wore disdainful smiles.
"Where did this country bumpkin come from, wanting to buy this evening gown?"
"He must be dreaming. If this evening gown were for sale, I would have bought it six months ago. Would I still leave it here?"
"Ridiculous, ridiculous indeed."
Several guests were internally complaining.
"Not for sale to the public?"
Ye Chen was somewhat surprised, but he wasn't frightened by those words.
"Call your store manager over."
Ye Chen immediately instructed the sales staff to call the store manager over.
"Okay, please wait a moment."
The salesperson turned to find the store manager. There were only a few dozen customers a year who were unwilling to give up and wanted to talk to the store manager; now there were only a dozen or so.
But no one succeeded; otherwise, this garment wouldn't still be here.
Several customers nearby stopped browsing clothes, intending to watch the show and see how this young man would be discouraged.
You're still buying this prized possession that's not for sale? Are you still half asleep?
"Ye Chen, how about we just forget about it and try another store?"
Su Ningshuang tried to persuade Ye Chen, not wanting to cause him any more trouble.
"It's alright, I'll find a way."
Ye Chen spoke.
Ye Chen thought this evening gown would suit Ning Shuang perfectly; if Ning Shuang wore it, she would definitely stun everyone.
So what if it's not for sale to the public? No problem, Ye Chen has a way to solve it.
A minute later, the store manager, a middle-aged woman dressed in fine clothes, walked over.
