Chapter 224: Red Flags Don’t Fly When They’re Not Straightened
“She’s her, and you’re you. What’s the point of keeping things so separate?” Lin Yi asked,
“That won’t do. Women are very jealous,” w.a.n.g Ying said.
“You’d better take down a woman as perfect as President Ji. If you miss the chance, you won’t be able to find someone as good as her in the future.”
“Alright, I’ll hold on tight,” Lin Yi said with a smile.
“That’s right.” w.a.n.g Ying held her chin with one hand and looked at Lin Yi with a smile.
!!
“You have to straighten up the red flag at home, or else it won’t be able to fly.”
“Sister Ying, that’s a great metaphor.”
“That’s why you have to listen to me and take down the president as soon as possible. That’s the real priority.”
“No problem.”
After dinner, w.a.n.g Ying cleaned up the table and drove off.
After leaving the house, Lin Yi opened the system page. He only needed five stars to complete his mission.
“You have a new order, please check it.”
As Lin Yi was strolling on the street, an order popped up on his phone.
The contents of the order was very interesting. He was asked to buy a high-quality replica Patek Philippe Watch, and the price was between 500 and 1000.
There was also a small note below.
If he couldn’t buy a Patek Philippe Watch, other high-quality watches were also acceptable.
However, the price was too broad, so Lin Yi called back to avoid a dispute. He wanted to confirm the details with the buyer.
Even so, when the call was connected, something even more interesting happened.
What appeared on the phone screen wasn’t a phone number, but Song Jia’s name.
Lin Yi was stunned. Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence?
The person who placed the order for him was Song Jia?
The call was picked up quickly.
“Director Lin, this is the first time you’ve called me after so lng,” Song Jia said with a smile.
“Were you looking for Sister Su, but couldn’t find her, and that’s why you called me?”
Lin Yi smiled when he heard Song Jia’s voice.
“I don’t want to look for that menopausal tigress. Didn’t you place an order online for a Patek Philippe Watch? I’m calling to confirm it.”
“Huh?”
Song Jia was obviously stunned. “I did place an order, but how did you know?”
“Because I’m the errand boy. I received your order.”
“No way! What a coincidence!” Song Jia said in surprise.
Sugar knew about Lin Yi’s job, but she kept her mouth shut and didn’t tell anyone else.
Thus, Song Jia didn’t know that Lin Yi was an errand boy.
She didn’t know that Lin Yi was a rich second generation either.
“What a coincidence.”
“Wait, Director Lin, why are you running errands? You can’t do this kind of work.” Song Jia said.
“Aren’t you on good terms with Qin Han? Can’t you just ask him to give you a job? You can’t just run errands.”
Lin Yi’s relationship with Qin Han had been revealed earlier when Sun Xiaoyu tried to jump off a building.
Song Jia couldn’t understand why Lin Yi was doing this kind of work.
“It’s a very independent job, and it earns a lot of money. I think it’s pretty good.” Lin Yi said.
“The salary of the school committee is indeed a bit low, but it’s still acceptable. It’s such a pity for you to have such a job. It’s not decent at all.”
“There’s nothing to be sorry about. I think it’s pretty good.”Lin Yi said with a smile, then changed the topic,
“Are you sure you want a high-quality replica Patek Philippe? If there’s no objection, I’ll buy it.” Lin Yi said with a smile
“That’s all, Director Lin. Wait, I’ll cancel this deal. I’m really embarra.s.sed to ask you to run errands for me.” Song Jia said
“No, no, no. I appreciate your kindness, but this is what I do. If you ask someone else to take this deal, the money will go to an outsider.”
Lin Yi wouldn’t ask Song Jia to cancel this deal no matter what.
With the relationship between the two of them, there was no way he would not get a five-star review. The mission would be completed as well.
If he let someone else take the job, who knew how much time he would have to waste to complete the task.
“Are you sure it’s okay? How could I, Song Jia, do that?”
“What’s the big deal? If you’re sure you want to buy a watch, I’ll go right now.”
“Alright then, I’ll have to trouble you with that, Director Lin.” Song Jia said.
“You have to help me pick out a watch. The more authentic the better. It doesn’t matter if it’s slightly over budget. You can’t let anyone else see it though.” Song Jia said.
“Leave it to me.”
Lin Yi hung up the phone and started thinking about where to buy a watch.
However, no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t think of a suitable location.
With Lin Yi’s wealth, he had already said goodbye to the world of fake watches.
“Miss Song’s personality isn’t bad. She’s much better than that tigress. Why don’t I give her a real one? It’s not that expensive anyway.”
Lin Yi made up his mind and drove to Times Square. He soon arrived at the Patek Philippe’s shop with ease.
Lin Yi didn’t know much about watches, so he could only look at the appearance of the watch. Then, he saw a platinum version of a female watch with diamonds on the dial.
The design was pretty good, and it matched Song Jia’s pet.i.te figure.
“Can you show me this watch?”
The female Patek Philippe employee walked over. “Sir, the price is 1.72 million. Are you sure you want to see it?”
“Huh? Why not? Are you afraid that I can’t afford it?”
“What are you talking about!”
Before the female employee could say anything, he heard someone shouting.
Lin Yi looked to the side and recognized the person.
It seemed to be the store manager of Patek Philippe. She was the person who had given him the 175th-anniversary gift.
“Xia Sis, I didn’t say anything. I just told him the price,” the salesgirl said innocently.
“You’re still trying to argue!”The store manager scolded,
“Wait for me in the storeroom. I’ll deal with you later!”
The female employee felt wronged after being scolded for no reason, but she could only obediently return to the storeroom at the back and wait for the manager to come over and grill her about the situation.
“Mr. Lin, I’m really sorry. She’s new to our store and doesn’t know the rules. Please don’t lower yourself to her level,” the female manager apologized.
“I’m not a petty person, but it’s best for you to improve your employee training.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Mr. Lin is right. We’ll pay attention to this.” The female manager looked at Lin Yi.
“Mr. Lin, do you like this watch? I’ll show it to you.”
“You don’t have to show me. Just pack it up.”
The female manager was overjoyed and sighed.
He was indeed a rich man!
A watch worth 1.72 million was probably equivalent to 172 in his eyes.
“Mr. Lin, since you’re a platinum member of Times Square, you can enjoy a 30% discount. I’ll round it down for you as well. You just have to pay 1,200,000 dollars.”
“Alright, pack it for me please.”
The transaction process was over quickly. After swiping the card, Lin Yi took the watch and left.
At the same time, the female store manager rushed back to the storeroom, ready to deal with what had just happened.
“Xia Sis, I didn’t do anything wrong just now. I can tell from his looks that he didn’t have the purchasing power, and it was a waste of time. What’s the point of serving him?”
“You say he doesn’t have the purchasing power?”
The female store manager took out Lin Yi’s order. “He bought that 1.72 million dollar watch in less than three minutes. Do you still think he doesn’t have the purchasing power?”
The female employee was dumbfounded. “He bought the 1.72 million dollar watch in less than three minutes?”
“That’s nothing. When he bought the 175th-anniversary edition Patek, he didn’t even bat an eyelid.”
