“Oh, oh, yes, sir, please follow me.

Reminded by Mu Bai’s voice, Du Xiaoqian snapped out of her daze and replied politely.

Then, she led this youthful, wealthy, and handsome boy toward the watch mall in Deji Plaza.

The watch mall was located on the fifth floor of Deji Plaza and housed many luxury timepieces.

As the largest and most luxurious shopping center in China, Deji Plaza boasted nearly all of the world’s top watch brands—far exceeding any individual high-end watch store in Nanjing.

While guiding him, Du Xiaoqian softly introduced some world-renowned watch brands displayed on the fifth-floor counters.

“Sir, people say watches are the jewelry of men, so I think you might consider luxury brands like Longines, Maurice Lacroix, TAG Heuer, and Montblanc. Each of these watches is carefully crafted by master watchmakers, with brand-new movements and mechanisms—maybe not flawless, but certainly top-tier. You can try on a Montblanc here at the dedicated counter. It’s a highly popular brand in China, and its straps are made from special materials, stitched on both sides instead of glued—very comfortable to wear…”

Mu Bai followed behind her, listening quietly to her introduction.

But as he arrived at the Montblanc counter and glanced at the displayed watches, seeing that the most expensive one was barely over a million RMB, he stopped and said softly:

“No need to try them on.”

“Huh? What’s the matter, sir? Don’t worry, we offer free try-ons for VIP customers. Or… is it that you don’t like this model?”

Du Xiaoqian looked at the boy who had suddenly stopped walking, slightly puzzled.

A few seconds later, the boy waved his hand and said calmly, “It’s nothing, I just don’t really like them. Please recommend some watches of a higher tier.”

“Recommend watches of a higher tier…”

Hearing this, Du Xiaoqian, despite her excellent professionalism, froze for a moment. Then she quickly responded, “Ah, oh—yes, of course, sir. I’m very sorry for wasting your time just now.”

She hadn’t expected that this boy would show no interest in Montblanc—a brand already considered top-tier luxury in both domestic and international markets.

Even the cheapest ones started at five figures, and most ranged from hundreds of thousands to over a million. Honestly, these are the kinds of watches many people dream of but cannot afford. Even billionaires think twice before buying one.

After all, being worth a billion doesn’t mean having that much in liquid assets. A regular billionaire might only have 10 to 20 million in spendable funds.

So dropping nearly a million just for a watch?

That does require careful thought.

Yet this boy’s tone?

It carried indifference—even disregard.

Disregard for Montblanc-level watches!

Realizing this, Du Xiaoqian hurriedly led Mu Bai to a more exclusive watch counter while apologizing profusely: “Sir, please follow me this way. I’m really sorry about earlier. It’s just habit—I usually recommend watches in that range, and didn’t quite react in time for someone like you.”

Indeed, Du Xiaoqian now remembered: this boy was driving a Bugatti Veyron worth tens of millions.

Would someone like him be interested in Montblanc-level watches?

At the very least, he would expect high-end luxury brands like Rolex, Bulgari, or Breitling—each costing over a million.

And the higher the value of the watch he chose, the greater her commission. That made her quite happy to assist him further.

Soon, they reached another section of the floor.

The watches here were obviously of a much higher tier.

Naturally, as the tier increased, foot traffic decreased. Across a dozen premium brand counters, there were only about thirty or forty people browsing.

Du Xiaoqian smiled and said, “Sir, these are Rolex watches—very popular in China. Rolex is also known as a ‘once and for all’ brand. You can browse different styles here. Prices range from a few hundred thousand to several million. If Rolex doesn’t suit your taste, we also have Chopard, Jaquet Droz, Corum—brands equally well-regarded in China.”

Just as she continued introducing more options, the boy beside her once again interrupted, his calm voice instantly scattering the thoughts she had so carefully arranged.

“Heh, no need to introduce these—let’s look over there.”

Curious, Du Xiaoqian followed his gaze.

And then she saw it: the Patek Philippe boutique—the universally recognized king of watches.

Patek Philippe.

A name no connoisseur of high-end watches can ignore when discussing top-tier luxury.

Hailed by many in the industry as “the king of watches,” its mechanical precision remains unmatched by any other manufacturer in the world.

Generally, Patek Philippe watches start at over a million RMB, often reaching tens of millions. Some rare or one-of-a-kind editions have even sold for over 100 million RMB globally.

This Patek Philippe boutique inside Deji Plaza housed over ten timepieces valued at more than 30 million RMB each!

Due to their staggering prices, the boutique rarely saw customers. And those who entered typically did so just to admire them.

But now, looking at the calm expression of the boy beside her, Du Xiaoqian suddenly felt that…

This boy might not be here just to “look.”

Because for someone to speak such words so lightly—unless they were delusional—they must have the real power to back it up.
