"Xiaoya, I'm Li Bin. We talked yesterday. Go grab something from my car—those two gift boxes on the passenger seat," Li Bin waved to Zhang Xiaoya, handing her his Toyota keys.
"Mr.~~Mr. Li?!" Hearing his introduction, Zhang Xiaoya's eyes widened in shock, staring at Li Bin in disbelief, utterly stunned.
This plain, unremarkable young man with a fake watch was the Li Bin who'd contacted her on WeChat last night to buy a Mercedes E300L Deluxe Edition?!
"You're Mr. Li Bin?! You~~uh~~I'll get it arranged right away~~" Zhang Xiaoya, still skeptical, confirmed again.
"No rush. Grab my stuff first, then we'll talk," Li Bin said casually, waving her toward the car.
"Got it! I'll go get it!" Zhang Xiaoya, all enthusiasm and eagerness, stole a glance at Li Bin, took the keys, and hurried out.
Last night, Zhang Xiaoya had imagined Li Bin countless times—maybe a handsome rich kid, or a potbellied tycoon.
Never this ordinary, even slightly tacky young guy. Earlier, she'd thought he was a nobody, even a bit of a hick.
But now, looking closer, she suddenly felt his low-key style had depth, exuding a subtle, noble aura. Even his fake watch seemed high-class!
She even thought Li Bin's watch looked more refined than Yue Yang's, which might be the fake one!
Sure, Yue Yang made decent money, but a Blancpain 6654 cost nearly 100,000 RMB—hardly something a regular worker could afford.
"Xiaoya? What's that about?" Yue Yang, baffled by her sudden fawning over Li Bin, sensed something was off.
As a seasoned salesman, he was sharp at reading people. Seeing Zhang Xiaoya's attitude, he guessed Li Bin wasn't ordinary.
"Mr. Li, you said you booked with Xiaoya already?" Yue Yang asked, looking awkward.
Li Bin gave him a flat glance, ignoring him.
Just then, Zhang Xiaoya rushed back, flushed with excitement, drawing the attention of other salespeople. Several nosy managers craned their necks to see.
She carried two shopping bags—one with a bold Jaeger-LeCoultre logo, the other with Rolex's crown and name.
Just the packaging screamed expensive.
"Mr. Li, I got your stuff! Take a look!" Zhang Xiaoya, red-faced and breathless, said excitedly.
Li Bin took the keys and bags, pulling out the boxes, receipts, and certificates.
Slap! He slammed them on the table, opening the boxes and turning to Yue Yang. "Mr. Yue, you're such a watch expert, huh? Check these two out—are they real or fake? I just bought them at the MixC mall's boutiques. Tell me if I got scammed. They say fake ones come with a tenfold refund. If they're fake, I'll get twenty watches and give one to everyone here!"
"Wow!! That's~~Rolex's diamond-encrusted Datejust!! So gorgeous!! I've always dreamed of this one!! It's like over a hundred thousand!!" The snobby woman from earlier squealed, rushing over, eyes gleaming with awe at Li Bin's boxes.
"That Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Moonphase in rose gold is like a hundred thousand too~~" a watch-savvy female salesperson chimed in.
"These two watches are worth a whole C-Class!!"
"No way these are fake! The boutique receipts and records are right there—no faking that!"
"These two watches are stunning!!"
The salespeople, forgetting they were on the clock, crowded around Li Bin, eyes full of envy and respect.
"Uh~~haha~~Mr. Li~~these are definitely real~~absolutely real~~haha~~uh~~my bad, I didn't recognize a big shot~~" Yue Yang stammered, head down, questioning his life.
"Yue Yang, you always brag about your Blancpain 6654. Maybe yours is the fake one?" Another salesman, who'd heard Yue Yang mock Li Bin's watch, teased skeptically.
"Nah, his is real. Mine's fake, sure. But so what? I like wearing a fake watch!" Li Bin snapped the boxes shut with two loud slaps, stuffed them back in the bags, and turned to Zhang Xiaoya. "Xiaoya, the car I ordered yesterday—is it ready? What's the full price? I want to drive it off now. It's a birthday gift for my mother-in-law tonight, so I need it today!
