Chapter 18: Achievement Unlocked, LV Shop

"Alright, I'll pack it up right away. Don't be shy, madam. It's normal to have a relationship at your age. Look how good your boyfriend is to you. You two are a perfect match, destined for each other." The saleswoman, a middle-aged woman who was good at reading people's moods, and talked a lot, but Li Bin found himself increasingly satisfied as he listened!

"No, please don't! Brother!! This clothing is too expensive! You've already lent me 100,000 yuan. I can't let you spend more!" Wen Lan blushed and felt embarrassed about letting Li Bin spend more money.

Unintentionally, Wen Lan gently dragged her arm, which caused Li Bin's arms to be trapped within the confinement of her ample breasts.

Li Bin trembled all over, feeling his arm touch a soft and full sensation. He secretly glanced at his younger sister-in-law's chest.

Although Wen Lan, his sister-in-law, was younger than his wife Wen Wan, her chest was actually larger.

Perhaps it was because of her regular dancing and fitness routine that Wen Lan's chest was full and upright, forming two large mounds visible even through her clothes. They quivered with every movement, making Li Bin feel a soft and comforting sensation.

"It's alright. It's just a piece of clothing. With my book gaining popularity now, I make tens of thousands of yuan in monthly income. It's not extravagant." Li Bin smiled and reached out his hand, patting Wen Lan's delicate hand naturally.

Although Li Bin was not skilled in picking up girls and lacked experience, he had some basic knowledge about it.

He had been looking for an opportunity to establish physical contact with his sister-in-law.

This move was called "advance and shift" in the art of picking up girls.

By gradually establishing physical contact, one could subconsciously make the other person accustomed to physical touch, thereby deepening the emotional connection, lowering their guard, and preparing for more intimate contact in the future.

Li Bin had learned this from a book by the popular online writer whom he greatly admired.

"Brother, really?! Why didn't you tell Dad yesterday? You looked so miserable, and it made me angry just watching. If Dad knew how successful you are now, earning in three months what he makes in a year, I wonder how he'd react. It must be quite awkward, haha..." Wen Lan looked at Li Bin in surprise, her eyes filled with admiration.

"What's there to say? When my book is published, adapted into TV dramas and movies, and I buy luxurious houses and cars, everyone will naturally understand me. You will too. I believe you'll become a big star in the future." Li Bin smiled, shaking his head nonchalantly.

As everyone knows, when Li Bin was scolded by his father-in-law yesterday, he was as poor as a stray dog, unable to secure a contract for his new book. It was a truly miserable state.

What he possibly retort with while being scolded?

If he had received these 1 million yuan earlier, Li Bin would have probably slapped his father-in-law's face right then and there.

But now that the moment had passed, using one million yuan to show off and slap his father-in-law's face would only make him look like a clown.

After conquering his sister-in-law and obtaining the masterpiece-level novel that could make him soar to the heavens as a reward, he could still show off and slap faces later!

"Sir, madam, I've packed the clothes for you. The total is 680 yuan. Will you be paying by card or cash?" The saleswoman looked at Li Bin eagerly, smiling with a knowing expression.

Li Bin looked older than his age, while Wen Lan appeared to be a college student in her late teens. It was normal for people to mistake them for a wealthy man keeping a mistress.

"Alipay, please." After buying that watch for his wife last night, his bank accounts were completely empty. He only had money in Alipay.

"Ding! 680 yuan received via Alipay."

As the announcement came from the cashier, Li Bin took the clothes and handed them to Wen Lan, saying, "Alright, now it's yours."

"Brother-in-law, you've spent too much... Thank you, brother-in-law... Brother-in-law, let me buy you a set of clothes too!" Wen Lan glanced at Li Bin with a bashful expression, her eyes filled with happiness. She reached out and held Li Bin's arm, smiling brightly.

"Sure." Li Bin smiled and nodded, enjoying the warm feeling of being held by his sister-in-law.

"Oh, Wen Lan, there's a Louis Vuitton showroom here. I wanted to buy a belt. Let's go and take a look." Li Bin pretended to be surprised and pointed to the nearby Louis Vuitton shop. He naturally reached out his hand and held Wen Lan's, striding towards it.

"Ah?" Wen Lan exclaimed in surprise. It was her first time holding hands with a man other than her father.

Initially, Wen Lan wanted to dodge, but seeing Li Bin's natural expression, as if he were an older brother holding his sister's hand, she simply pursed her lips bashfully and accepted the fact that they were holding hands.

Although she had been dating her boyfriend, Zhao Jiahao, for over half a year, their relationship had always been lukewarm. Wen Lan was conservative by nature, and unfortunately, Zhao Jiahao hadn't even held her hand yet…

Now, Li Bin had taken the initiative, stealing Wen Lan's first experience of hand-holding.

[Achievement Unlocked: First hand-holding with sister-in-law]

[Intimacy: +10 (79: Close)]

"Good day, sir. Good day, madam. How may I assist you?" Li Bin walked with Wen Lan into the LV shop, where an elegantly dressed woman in a black suit greeted them with a smile.

Wen Lan looked nervously at the luxuriously decorated counter; the exquisite luxury handbags on display were incredibly tempting under the accentuated lighting.

The opulent texture, beautiful design, and the allure of LV's logo naturally attracted women.

Initially, Wen Lan kept thinking of pulling Li Bin back, warning him about the expensive items inside. But as soon as they entered, Wen Lan found herself unable to move while gazing at the array of handbags.

Observing Wen Lan's reaction, Li Bin chuckled, understanding her feelings. He turned to the salesperson and asked, "Do you have the classic LV belt?"

"Please come this way, sir!" The salesperson cast a doubtful glance at Li Bin. She didn't see anything branded on him, and even his clothes seemed worn and faded. Consequently, her attitude became somewhat dismissive.

"Sir, this is our most classic and affordable belt from Louis Vuitton. Please take a look and see if you like it..." The salesperson handed Li Bin the cheapest belt, her polite demeanor masking a hint of indifference.

After working at the counter for a while, she had learned to judge people. People like Li Bin, in general, were ignorant of brands. They would come in, get frightened by the high prices, make some excuses and leave. So, she introduced the belt symbolically, before turning to greet another incoming customer.

Li Bin picked up the belt the salesperson had just shown him and glanced at the price. Goodness, even the cheapest one was over four thousand. And the most expensive one was a staggering thirteen thousand. It was just a belt!

The prices of the bags and clothes were even more shocking. A short-sleeved shirt cost four to five thousand, and a random bag was worth tens of thousands, thirty or forty thousand. This was not a place for the middle class to shop.

However, Li Bin was not short on money now. After struggling for so long, he wanted to change himself a bit and reward himself.

"Brother-in-law, you're not really planning to buy a Louis Vuitton belt, are you?" Wen Lan looked surprised as she watched Li Bin directly fasten the top-of-the-line belt to his slightly faded jeans, and she nervously asked him.

"Of course, why else would I come in?" Li Bin smiled and thought the thirteen thousand belt suited him. He reached out to the salesperson and said, "Excuse me."

At that moment, the female salesperson was introducing products to another couple. She approached Li Bin and asked, "Sir, is there something I can help you with?"

"Brother-in-law, this belt costs over thirteen thousand!" Wen Lan nervously nudged Li Bin with her elbow, quietly reminding him.

"I know." Li Bin looked at Wen Lan speechlessly, then calmly told the salesperson, "I'll take this belt, but no need for packaging. I'll wear it right away. Please proceed with the payment."

The salesperson's face immediately lit up with excitement. She looked surprised at Li Bin for a moment and then warmly invited him to the front desk to make the payment.

"Wen Lan, don't you want to buy anything? I think that handbag over there is nice." Li Bin casually pointed to the small and exquisite handbag. With his prior research, he knew it was the bag that Wen Lan wanted according to the system.

"Oh? Brother-in-law, you also find this bag attractive?" Wen Lan looked delightedly at the bag on the counter, her eyes filled with desire.

She had long yearned for this bag but being a student with no income and coming from a frugal family, she only received a monthly allowance of a little over 3000 yuan from her father. With expenses in school being high, after saving for three months, she only managed to accumulate a little over a thousand yuan. It was impossible for her to even think about buying this bag worth over ten thousand.

"Excuse me, could you take that bag down for my sister-in-law to see?" Li Bin casually pointed at the small Soul bag while paying.

"Payment Received: 13,800"

Upon hearing the payment announcement from the front desk, the female salesperson became even more enthusiastic. She immediately took out the bag and respectfully placed it on the counter in front of Wen Lan.

"Sir, madam, you have excellent taste. This bag is the latest from Louis Vuitton, and it's currently our best-selling item. It suits this beautiful lady perfectly." The salesperson enthusiastically introduced the bag to Wen Lan.

Wen Lan reached out and gently caressed the handbag, feeling its delicate texture, and her heart fluttered with excitement.
