How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Chapter 51 - 50 Don’t worry, I won’t affect your relationship with your boyfriend

Having rested for a while and seeing that Gu Heng had not returned yet, the woman’s inherent fondness for luxury goods engraved in her DNA began to stir, and Fang Xun headed towards the counter.

Looking at one sparkling piece of jewelry after another in the counter, Fang Xun wanted to gesture magnanimously like Gu Heng, asking the shopping assistant to pack everything up for her, but clearly, her bank account balance did not support such extravagance...

Suddenly...

She spotted a necklace that she had adored in a magazine before, her eyes slightly widened in delight, and she could not help but speak to the shopping assistant, "Hello, could you please show me that necklace?"

"Of course, no problem, madam."

The counter assistant promptly sprang into action, taking out the necklace Fang Xun liked, and her professional skills kicked in as she began, "Would you like me to introduce it to you?"

Seeing Fang Xun nod, the assistant spoke again.

"This necklace is a Gucci Interlocking Series 18K gold necklace, part of the first batch of jewelry released for the Gucci early autumn 2024 collection. The pendant combines rare black onyx with 18K gold, adorned with sparkling diamonds.

It carries the beautiful implication that it can dazzle even in the dimmest of lives."

Listening to the assistant’s voice, which seemed to be laced with magic, Fang Xun couldn’t help but gently stroke the pendant and slowly raised her head to ask, "How much is this necklace?"

"The official price is 20,400 yuan."

Upon hearing this price, Fang Xun’s heart felt half dead...

Although the job of a hotel butler sounds high-end, the income is quite unstable. Even during tourist peak seasons when she worked every day, her monthly salary was only about 30,000 yuan...

During off-season periods like now, she could only earn just under 10,000 yuan as base salary...

On average, this necklace would cost more than one month’s salary...

Although she had the money to buy the necklace, she couldn’t bring herself to spend it...

Thinking about this, Fang Xun was about to ask the assistant to put the necklace back...

"What are you doing?"

Gu Heng, who had returned to the front desk after choosing some shoes, looked at Fang Xun standing distractedly in front of the counter and couldn’t help asking.

Just as Fang Xun was about to answer, the counter assistant, who was very aware that although luxury store clients are usually women, the main purchasers are men, spoke out first, "Sir, your girlfriend seems to like this necklace."

Gu Heng glanced at the necklace, and then at Fang Xun, noting the hesitation in her eyes and quickly understood what was going on.

He then turned to the assistant behind him and said, "Calculate the price for this necklace and those three pairs of shoes I selected."

The moment the counter assistant heard this, the smile on his face could no longer be suppressed, "Sir, you are really good to your girlfriend. You two must be very loving typically..."

Listening to the assistant refer to Fang Xun as his girlfriend, Gu Heng didn’t bother to correct him and just gave a faint smile.

Now realizing what was happening, Fang Xun looked up, her eyes filled with disbelief as she gazed at Gu Heng’s profile...

She wasn’t foolish; she clearly understood that Gu Heng most likely intended to give her the necklace. Pretending otherwise would just be silly.

What surprised her was why Gu Heng decided to buy this necklace for her...

But as her mood slightly settled, seeing Gu Heng not contradicting the assistant’s assertion that she was his girlfriend, her heart filled with an indescribable joy...

.....

A few minutes later, the assistant packed the three pairs of shoes and the necklace and handed them over to Gu Heng.

But in the next second, Gu Heng quite naturally handed all the shoes to Fang Xun and after paying, picked a few easy-to-carry clothes and walked straight out of the store...

As for Fang Xun...

Though she was burdened more heavily, she looked much more lively compared to before, her arms filled with several bags as she hurriedly followed him out...

The two assistants exchanged a glance.

"Everyone else has the boyfriend carry the girlfriend’s bags, but it’s totally reversed with these two, that woman seems too servile, doesn’t she?"

Hearing this, the counter assistant sneered condescendingly at her colleague, "Servile?"

Sister, have you been brainwashed by those pure love novels in women’s channels? Thinking that all men in the world are in love, each one willing to die for their beloved?

Wake up!

That’s not my boyfriend. If it were my boyfriend, he would buy me a necklace worth over twenty thousand without even blinking or asking the price. Let alone carrying a bag or fetching shoes for me, I would be willing to take classes to learn any position he wants!

"..."

...

...

After carefully placing the luxury goods worth millions into the trunk, Fang Xun headed towards the driver’s seat.

But just as she got to the driver’s seat, she saw that Gu Heng had already taken a seat there.

"I’ll drive on the way back, you must be tired from the trip."

Seeing Gu Heng being so considerate, a sweet feeling rose from the bottom of her heart, and she obediently took the passenger seat...

After getting into the car, Gu Heng didn’t beat around the bush and immediately placed the necklace they had just bought on her legs, "This is for you."

Although she had guessed that the necklace was meant for her, when this scene actually unfolded before her eyes, Fang Xun couldn’t help but feel excited, gently opening the petite gift box, watching the sparkling diamond on the pendant.

She didn’t refuse, but instead turned her head to look into Gu Heng’s eyes, "This necklace costs over twenty thousand, why give me such an expensive gift?"

"Didn’t I mention yesterday? If you please me, there’s a reward. Consider this your reward."

Gu Heng really wanted to say he wanted to get physically close, considering it a down payment, but the words changed as they reached his lips...

Not even a dog would believe this excuse, let alone Fang Xun. How rich must one be to casually reward a room manager he’d met just two days ago with a necklace worth over twenty thousand? Even having a mine wouldn’t justify such extravagance, right?

"Besides the reward, there’s no other reason?"

Their gazes locked for a few seconds as Gu Heng lightly smiled...

Suddenly becoming enlightened...

Even Fang Xun, this woman, could straightforwardly bring up the issue, so why should he, the initiator, be timid? What kind of behavior is that?

With this thought, Gu Heng no longer hid his thoughts and said directly, "Exactly as you’re thinking, if you feel it’s not enough, there will be more afterwards."

"..."

As his words fell, the car suddenly became silent...

It was Gu Heng’s first time considering paying a woman to spread her legs and he felt somewhat uneasy...

If she rejected him, would it be really embarrassing?

But soon, Fang Xun responded. Though it was unclear whether it was genuine or pretense, she said somewhat shyly, "But I haven’t broken up with my boyfriend yet..."

Upon hearing this, Gu Heng immediately assured her with a smile, "Don’t worry, I won’t affect your relationship with your boyfriend."

But as soon as he finished speaking, Fang Xun’s face, previously shy, now suddenly widened her eyes...

What did he mean by not affecting her relationship with her boyfriend? What kind of audacious words were these?

She thought Gu Heng wanted her to dump her boyfriend and become his girlfriend. She initially intended to maintain some dignity, not allowing him to think she was that kind of easy woman, but after hearing Gu Heng’s response, it seemed she had misunderstood his intentions—he only wanted a fling?

And from Fang Xun’s expression, Gu Heng could guess she had misunderstood him...

The air suddenly turned quiet...

...

Family, I’m speechless... I just wanted to pay for a one-time close encounter with her, but this woman wants to be my girlfriend...

Me lusting for just one moment, and she’s too harsh—lusting for a lifetime...
