Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?!-Chapter 426 - 425: Breaking Up Directly

There was another point Su Mu considered, that the jade bracelet might require maintenance in the future, so it would be more convenient to put the receipt inside the packaging box as well.

Su Mu wasn’t trying to show off that he spent 6.66 million or anything.

To Su Mu, spending this amount of money on a gift didn’t really mean much.

Moreover, he had already known about Xuanxuan’s family background since high school.

Back then, wasn’t it because of the vast difference between his family’s financial situation and Jiang Xinxuan’s that he always maintained an ambiguous relationship with Jiang Xinxuan?

Of course, Su Mu didn’t think that Xuanxuan’s mother would be surprised by the price of the jade bracelet.

"Alright, sir, here is your jade bracelet, please take good care of it."

The clerk, of course, followed the handsome customer’s instructions to the letter.

This handsome customer was now her patron, and the clerk knew that all her dining and drinking luxuries next month were thanks to this handsome customer.

Having sold a jade bracelet for 6.66 million, the clerk knew that even if she didn’t make any more sales this month, her salary for the next month would still be a substantial stack.

The salaries of employees in luxury stores aren’t usually very high; their main source of income is still commissions.

It was a policy specifically designed by the boss to motivate the employees.

If you offer too high a base salary with average commissions, then these employees would just need to stand in the store each day, earning their basic salary and nothing more.

Who would then put extra effort into customers, thinking about how to sell a bit more?

The current model was a win-win.

The boss earned more, and the employees would get a considerable commission, while the customers were served as if they were gods.

Everyone was happy.

"Would you two like to see anything else? Our jade artifacts are also very famous at Yu Yuan Jewelry Store."

Although the clerk knew the chances were slim, she still wanted to try her best.

The clerk thought that it might not be impossible for the handsome customer to take a liking to another piece of jade and buy it on the spot.

After all, rich second-generation customers with a black card who wanted to buy jade artifacts from the jewelry store could do it in a minute.

"No need, this jade bracelet is already enough."

Jiang Xinxuan hurriedly declined the clerk’s suggestion before Su Mu even had a chance to speak.

Jiang Xinxuan felt that the jade bracelet had already exceeded her expectations.

If Su Mu took a fancy to any other jade artifacts and decided to take them home as well.

Jiang Xinxuan already imagined how her mother would nag her after Su Mu left.

With this jade bracelet alone, Jiang Xinxuan knew she would definitely be lectured by her mother for several days.

Not to mention anything else.

In any case, Jiang Xinxuan was determined not to stay with Su Mu in Yu Yuan Jewelry Store any longer.

"Su Mu, let’s go look at flowers, my mom loves carnations the most."

With a hint of coquetry, Jiang Xinxuan shook Su Mu’s arm.

"Let’s go."

Su Mu knew his girlfriend’s rare display of affection in public must have some "unmentionable" purpose behind it.

Of course, Su Mu was clear about Xuanxuan’s intentions.

He just didn’t want to call it out.

Taking the packaging bag handed over by the clerk with both hands, Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan didn’t give the other jade artifacts a second glance as they left.

"Sir, miss, please take your time, and welcome to visit us again."

The sales associate didn’t even have time to take off her gloves before she scurried from behind the counter and escorted Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan to the door.

Only after the handsome man and the beautiful woman disappeared from view did the associate reluctantly return to the store.

"Look at that guy, he spent six million, six hundred and sixty-thousand without even blinking."

"And you? All talk, saying I can pick anything, that it’s all up to me?"

"I only took a liking to a jade pendant worth one hundred and eighty-thousand, but you’ve been hesitating to pay up until now."

"Besides, it’s not even for me to wear; I thought since you’re visiting my family for the first time, we ought to buy a decent gift, right?"

"If I give my mom a jade pendant worth one hundred and eighty-thousand, do you think she would oppose our relationship?"

"And here you are, dawdling at such a crucial moment. Do you even deserve to call yourself a second-generation rich?"

"Is there really such a big difference between the levels of rich second generations?"

"Look at the gift someone else is buying for their girlfriend’s mother, and then look at you."

"I’m not even asking for you to be on the same level as him, how can you even have the face?"

After Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan left, a young girl’s voice, full of dissatisfaction, could be heard from within Yu Yuan Jewelry Store.

Before Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan entered Yu Yuan Jewelry Store, there was already a young couple inside.

It was a coincidence that this couple was also there to pick out something for the girl’s mother, as a gift from the boy on his first visit.

Even though it was such a coincidence, the way the two boys handled things was completely different.

Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan entered later.

Su Mu’s intention was very clear; he was there to buy an expensive and nice gift for his girlfriend’s mother.

Without wasting any time, Su went straight for the counter with Jiang Xinxuan.

Su Mu didn’t even bother to notice if there were other customers in the jewelry store.

To Su Mu, whether there were others present was irrelevant.

Moreover, Su Mu was very quick when shopping.

It just so happened that Su Mu picked out the most expensive jade bracelet.

Of course, even though it was the most expensive jade bracelet, Su Mu didn’t delay at all when it came to paying.

The young couple that arrived earlier could only watch helplessly as Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan entered the store.

They then had to watch as Su Mu purchased the most expensive jade bracelet and left the store with his girlfriend, looking very carefree.

One could imagine how crushed the girl who had been in the jewelry store first felt at that moment.

The girl was initially attracted by the handsome man’s looks.

Since her own boyfriend kept considering this and that, the girl eventually shifted her attention to the handsome man.

This shift of attention proved to be significant as the girl saw the handsome man’s actions and then looked back at her boyfriend—the contrast was stark.

It wasn’t until after the handsome man left with the beautiful woman that the girl gradually snapped out of her shock.

Of course, that led to the earlier complaints from the girl.

The girl had always been proud of snagging a second-generation rich guy for herself.

After all, her boyfriend drove a BBA car, which also made him a rich second generation among his peers.

But after witnessing what truly wealthy second-generation rich people were like today, the girl’s feelings became quite bitter.

The girl now felt that even the sales associate who initially greeted her and her boyfriend looked at them differently.

The girl noticed that the sales associate kept looking enviously at the other associate who had just helped the handsome man and beautiful woman.

Being envious of a colleague for making such a big sale was natural.

The girl felt that she and her boyfriend had been in the jewelry store for so long yet couldn’t even make a decision on a jade pendant worth one hundred and eighty-thousand.

Instead, the handsome guy took just about ten minutes to pay the whopping 6.66 million directly and settle everything.

Even if the salesclerk didn’t show it on her face, the girl was feeling somewhat inferior inside.

What happened to being a rich second-generation heir?

How come when faced with a truly wealthy person, her boyfriend’s true status was exposed all at once?

The girl’s mood, of course, was far from pleasant now.

The words that came out of her mouth were bound to not be too pleasant either.

In truth, the boy was feeling extremely frustrated too.

He thought he should have checked the almanac before going out today.

How could he have encountered such a rich guy?

And to appear in the same jewelry store, no less, he overheard the handsome man and his beautiful girlfriend talking about buying a gift for the girlfriend’s mother too.

The same situation, but different outcomes. Not to mention his girlfriend’s complaints, even the boy himself felt a bit embarrassed.

But pride goes before a fall; the boy knew the gap between himself and the handsome guy was one thing.

Having it pointed out in front of the salesclerks at Yu Yuan Jewelry Store by his girlfriend was quite another.

The boy felt like his girlfriend had trampled on both his dignity and self-worth.

Naturally, the boy wasn’t in any mood to sweet-talk his girlfriend, who was clearly very upset at this point.

"All you ever do is compare me to others. This month’s pocket money has already been spent on your bags," he said.

The boy felt aggrieved now, but in fact, he felt even more aggrieved.

After all, his monthly allowance also reached over one hundred thousand.

Isn’t that considered a rich second-generation heir in an average family?

Unfortunately, his girlfriend had an extreme fondness for designer brands, and after her various shopping sprees, the boy felt his finances starting to stretch thin.

Today, the girlfriend whimsically insisted on dragging him to buy a gift to meet her parents.

The boy originally thought it was normal to buy a gift for the first visit, and readily agreed.

Yet, he hadn’t anticipated that his girlfriend’s idea of a gift was not your average gift.

After being pulled into Yu Yuan Jewelry Store by his girlfriend, he realized today was going to be another pricey outing.

He had reckoned that his card still held this month’s untouched allowance, enough to buy jade worth ten or twenty thousand without issue.

So at first, he didn’t mind too much that his girlfriend hadn’t discussed with him and so purposefully brought him to this jewelry store.

That is until his girlfriend directly chose a jade pendant worth 180,000, then the boy became unsettled.

Was this just a simple visit to the girl’s parents?

He felt this was just another opportunity for his girlfriend to make him buy buy buy.

Of course, the boy couldn’t possibly agree to his girlfriend’s audacious request, knowing the balance left in his card.

The quarreling couple watched as Su Mu and Jiang Xinxuan entered the jewelry store.

They witnessed the entire process of Su Mu purchasing that 6.66 million jade bracelet with ease.

With such a comparison, the girl was no longer fixated on getting her boyfriend to buy that mere 180,000 jade pendant.

The girl felt she might have misjudged her boyfriend and, of course, began to find fault with everything about him.

In her mind, she thought about how the handsome guy’s girlfriend had said she didn’t want to buy such an expensive bracelet.

But the handsome guy was good about it, not uttering any unnecessary words and simply making the payment.

Then, looking back at herself, after whining for so long, her own boyfriend wouldn’t even spend 180,000.

The girl felt sure that the staff at the jewelry store were laughing at her in their hearts right now.

"So what if he bought a few bags, huh? Why, does it hurt that much?"

"If you can’t afford it, just say so. Is there a need to dig up these old accounts outside?"

The girl had thought that she had snagged a rich second generation and that she could live a worry-free life of luxury from now on.

So, she had always been very tender and considerate towards her boyfriend.

But after seeing what a real rich second generation was like today, the girl felt a profound sense of being duped.

Of course, the girl couldn’t waste any more time on this "fake rich second generation" in front of her.

The girl thought that after leaving her current boyfriend, she could find a truly wealthy rich second generation.

Preferably one like the handsome guy in the store today who could whip out a black card, and wouldn’t blink an eye at buying something worth over six million.

Since she didn’t want to cling to him anymore, the girl revealed her true nature, with none of that tenderness and consideration left.

"You, forget it, it’s my own fault for being blind and falling for someone so greedy and vain."

The boy was really angered, not expecting that his girlfriend’s previous obedience and docility had all been an act.

He stood up; today’s gift was definitely not going to be bought.

Whether the two could even continue talking was another matter, let alone buying a gift to meet the parents.

The boy felt he really should give it some serious thought, whether to continue this relationship or not.

If he was just being used as an ATM, the boy certainly wouldn’t be content.

"Wait a minute, if anyone’s doing the dumping, it’s me dumping you, who said you could leave first?"

"Let me tell you, we are officially broken up as of today."

The girl, seeing the boy stand up, started screaming.

She wanted to preempt him, indicating that she was dumping him.

In the midst of the boy’s stunned gaze, the girl left with poise, taking with her the bags he had bought for her.

The girl felt that the sooner she left the boy, the sooner she could snag a real rich second generation.

Looking at his girlfriend’s—now ex-girlfriend’s—hurried steps, the boy knew he had truly misjudged.

"Sir..."

The staff at the Yu Yuan Jewelry Store knew they weren’t going to make this sale.

Glancing at the boy, who stood there, seemingly lost in thought, the clerk felt a faint sympathy for him.

They hadn’t expected the couple who came shopping to actually break up right in the jewelry store.

And it looked like the boy was the one who got hurt.

At this point, of course, the clerk couldn’t possibly ask the boy if he was still going to buy the jade pendant.

Anyone could see that this topic was over.

But seeing that the boy was still standing there, the clerk felt it was not quite right and softly reminded him.

The clerk felt that it was proper for the boy to be sad at this moment.

It was just that the setting was a bit inappropriate, and if it were anywhere else, the clerk certainly wouldn’t have said anything.

This was a jewelry store, after all, and no matter what, they couldn’t let this affect business, could they?

"I’m sorry."

The boy, of course, understood the meaning behind the clerk’s words, and left the Yu Yuan Jewelry Store with an apologetic greeting.

The boy felt he should be thankful to the handsome guy today; at least he had made him see his ex-girlfriend’s true colors.
