Chapter 26 (2/2)
Oh, right. If Ye Chen recalled correctly, Shen Haihua from the Shen family called all the shots at North Name Corporation…
Thinking about that, Ye Chen suddenly shifted his gaze to He Qian’s boyfriend with a strange expression on his face.
Sun Yi could not bear to hear all the insults Ye Chen was receiving and tried to pull Ye Chen away.
“Let’s go. You should leave the clothes. We’re not taking them anymore…”
However, Ye Chen did not budge. He stared at Sun Yi intently and asked, “Do you really want to see me wearing this?”
Sun Yi froze. For reasons unknown to her, a sense of impending doom started to grow.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen approached the cashier, retrieved a card and said to the store attendant, “Wrap it up. Swipe the card.”
Sun Yi’s mouth was agape in horror. Had Ye Chen lost his mind?!
What in the world was he doing?!
There was no one clearer than Sun Yi when it came to how much money Ye Chen had.
He could not afford to pay his own rent!
As a matter of fact, he just borrowed three thousand bucks from her!
How could he afford something that cost several hundred thousand?!
Moreover, He Qian was watching them from the back. If the card failed, she would rain the cruelest insults on him!
‘Ye Chen, oh, Ye Chen. Why must you be so rash?’ Sun Yi lamented internally.
After observing what went on for a while, the store manager 1 realized that Ye Chen and Sun Yi had no money.
As the store manager was about to turn down Ye Chen’s request to swipe the card, she accidentally glimpsed the card in Ye Chen’s hand from the corner of her eye.
All of a sudden, her face paled.
That was the VIP Black Card issued by the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China!
You could only apply for the VIP Black Card if you had more than ten million in savings!
After working at Armani for three years, it was not difficult for her to recognize the card for what it was.
She gave a hasty smile and said politely, “Glad to have you, sir. As you’re using the VIP Black Card, in collaboration with the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, we shall give you another ten percent discount after the original discount for this…”
Hearing that, everyone’s face changed. Nobody expected that the card in Ye Chen’s hand to be a VIP Black Card!
He Qian stepped forward and spat in an accusatory tone, “Don’t think you’ll be able to get away with a fake card! If the transaction fails, you’ll go to jail for fraud!”
Sun Yi gave Ye Chen a tug, too. She said anxiously, “Take the card back. We’re leaving now! It’s fine. Better to be humiliated than being sent to the police station!”
Ye Chen turned his gaze on Sun Yi, who looked like she was about to pull her hair out. Ye Chen smiled. “Do you have so little faith in me? Do I look broke to you?”
Sun Yi almost fainted. It was not an issue of whether he looked broke or otherwise—he was definitely broke!
What came next was out of everyone’s expectation. Other than passing the card over to the store manager, Ye Chen announced proudly, “Swipe it! Just swipe it! Also, I don’t need any discounts! Charge me the original price! This man, I, am not short of money today!”
Parvenu much?
So be it!
‘I’ll be a parvenu for the day!’
