Chapter 33 Want to Eat Together?

If it weren’t for the random task from the Life Winner System, An Liang probably wouldn’t have bothered with Jin Ming. After all, he was just a passerby—what would be the point?

But the Life Winner System did give a random task. An Liang expressed his desire to be a good person, but alas, the Life Winner System wouldn’t allow it!

“Brother Li, what women’s watches do you have right now?” An Liang asked.

Li Xiaolin quickly responded, “Mr. An, just call me Xiao Li. I’ll check immediately, please wait a moment.”

An Liang nodded and added, “Check for those priced over a million. Don’t bother telling me about those 7122 series ones. Those are entry-level—just sleazy tricks used by old men to fool innocent girls!”

Jin Ming, standing nearby, frowned but couldn’t refute. Judging by An Liang’s tone, was he planning to buy another million-yuan ladies’ watch?

Liang Xue felt secretly pleased!

She had been forced by her agency to accompany Jin Ming today, because Jin Ming’s company—Jinshi Mingyue Entertainment—was considering investing in a web drama.

If Liang Xue could pull it off, she’d be the female lead of the drama.

If not?

Then she could forget about it.

Jin Ming had specifically requested Liang Xue, and she had no choice but to go along. But she had her boundaries—she was fine with just accompanying him shopping, but nothing beyond that.

That’s why Jin Ming brought her to Patek Philippe today. He planned to buy her an entry-level ladies’ watch from the brand, then invest in the web drama and win her over. But now… an unexpected variable appeared!

An Liang’s sudden involvement completely disrupted Jin Ming’s plans.

Less than two minutes later, Li Xiaolin returned and said apologetically, “Sorry, Mr. An. We currently don’t have any women’s watches priced over a million.”

“Seriously?” An Liang scoffed.

Li Xiaolin explained, “Watches at that price range usually have to be custom ordered.”

“What’s the most expensive women’s watch you have right now?” An Liang asked.

“There’s one with complex chronograph functions—the 4937R-001. It’s made of 18K rose gold and encrusted with diamonds. The case has 431 diamonds totaling 2.79 carats, and the clasp has 27 diamonds totaling 0.2 carats. It sells for 515,000 yuan,” Li Xiaolin introduced.

He added, “Since you’re already one of our VIP clients, Mr. An, this watch would only cost you 500,000 yuan.”

“There’s also the 4978/400G-001, which…”

Li Xiaolin was cut off before finishing.

“Take them both out so I can take a look,” An Liang ordered.

“Right away.”

Li Xiaolin brought both watches out and placed them on the glass counter for An Liang to view.

An Liang gestured.

“Miss Liang, if I were to buy a watch for my girlfriend, which one do you think looks better?”

Liang Xue hesitated for a moment but walked over to offer her opinion.

The 4937R featured a blend of rose gold and white, with a white leather strap, exuding a sense of elegance and nobility. The other model, the 4978, was more expensive by over 10,000 yuan, but its blue strap, blue dial, and blue hands made it less appealing from a “fairy girl” aesthetic.

After thinking for a moment, Liang Xue said, “Based on my own taste, I prefer the 4937R-001.”

“Want to try it on?” An Liang asked.

Li Xiaolin promptly took out the watch, “Miss Liang, feel free to try it on.”

Without overthinking, Liang Xue put it on her left wrist and held it up for An Liang to see.

An Liang nodded while sarcastically saying, “President Jin, don’t you think this looks a bit better than that 7122?”

Jin Ming gave a cold snort and left ahead of them without a word. Liang Xue watched him go, quietly sighing. The mission to secure investment had clearly failed—but she didn’t blame An Liang. Even without him, she wouldn’t have agreed to Jin Ming’s demands anyway.

An Liang noticed Jin Ming’s reaction and said to Liang Xue, “Sorry, Miss Liang. I didn’t mean to interfere. I just couldn’t stand that kind of sleazy behavior—trying to get a lot with just a little.”

Liang Xue rolled her eyes at An Liang and began taking off the watch, but he stopped her.

“No need to take it off. I don’t know why you were with that guy, but I know I probably caused you trouble. Consider this watch compensation,” An Liang said quickly.

“Xiao Li, charge the card.” An Liang handed over his bank card.

Li Xiaolin, good at reading people, could tell An Liang was serious. He took the card without hesitation.

Liang Xue tried to refuse.

“Mr. An, this watch is far too expensive—I can’t accept it.”

As she continued to remove the watch, An Liang held her wrist and stopped her, joking, “Then how about treating me to a meal instead?”

He continued, “I’m curious—what’s the story between you and that Mr. Jin? Mind sharing it?”

Liang Xue blushed slightly and stopped taking off the watch, but gently pulled her wrist away from his grasp. She made up her mind to treat An Liang to dinner—and then find a way to return the watch.

“Where would you like to eat, Mr. An?” She asked.

An Liang replied, “I’m not familiar with Shanghai—you choose.”
