Chapter 117: Embarrassing
Although this thing looked exactly like the genuine article, and its functions were identical.
A fake was still a fake. No matter how realistic, it was still fake, and Li Bin always felt a bit uncomfortable about it.
Now that he had money, he might as well buy a real one.
2.8 million...
Buying a watch that costs over a hundred thousand... shouldn't be a problem, right?
Li Bin excitedly browsed watches from the major brands.
The comments below were either people showing off their wealth or saying they were getting ahead of themselves, how did they have the guts to download an app like this...
Rolex... Omega... Jaeger-LeCoultre... IWC...
Looking around, any decent-looking watch cost no less than 50,000 yuan.
Hmm... As for Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin, his two million would probably only get him two or three watches, and if he wanted a limited edition, it might not even be enough.
They say a Rolex is for life, so let's go with a Rolex...
The Rolex Submariner, commonly known as the "Hulk," had always been a watch Li Bin dreamed of owning.
He checked the local authorized dealers in Hangzhou and discovered that the watch was sold out everywhere. You couldn't get one from an authorized dealer in the country at all.
There were some on the second-hand market, with the price listed at 140,000 yuan, which was double the official price!
After browsing for a while, Li Bin could only give up and set his sights on the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Moon.
The rose gold model was 140,000 yuan, and the stainless steel model was 77,000 yuan.
The price difference was nearly half.
After some thought, Li Bin ultimately decided to go for the 140,000 yuan Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Moon.
So what if it was extravagant? A man should treat himself well. Women can spend tens of thousands on necklaces, so why can't a man buy a high-end, masterfully crafted watch?
Besides, he had money now. So what if it was expensive? Just go for it!
The Jaeger-LeCoultre boutique in Hangzhou was quite close to him, and this model was their entry-level piece, available at almost every boutique.
Once he had made up his mind, Li Bin lay down contentedly on the sofa and closed his eyes to sleep.
The night passed without incident.
Li Bin, who had slept in the living room, was awakened by the glaring sunlight. He rubbed his eyes groggily and glanced at his phone.
7:25 AM.
It was getting late. Li Bin had to buy a watch today, go to the 4S dealership to pick a car, and prepare for his mother-in-law's birthday banquet tonight.
He had even specifically asked his mother-in-law to take the day off for this. He couldn't keep Shen Han waiting.
Li Bin took a deep breath and hurriedly got off the sofa.
At the same time, Wen Wan and Ling Hanrui, who had been sleeping soundly, also woke up.
The two best friends climbed out of bed and, as if by some unspoken agreement, both yawned. They then shared a meaningful look, but quickly averted their gazes like guilty thieves.
"Hanrui... last night... Did you sleep well?" Wen Wan asked a little nervously, stealing a glance at Ling Hanrui and testing the waters.
Ling Hanrui had originally been afraid that Wen Wan would be suspicious of her behavior last night, but she never expected that the first thing Wen Wan said would be to test her.
Ling Hanrui knew Wen Wan very well, and immediately understood what Wen Wan was thinking. She quickly composed herself and laughed naturally, "I slept even better than at home! Babe, I really want to sleep cuddling with you every night! But I'm afraid your husband wouldn't be willing to part with you!"
Ling Hanrui acted completely natural, which made Wen Wan secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
"Huh? Why... why aren't I wearing any clothes... This is so embarrassing..." Ling Hanrui touched her exposed chest. Seeing that Wen Wan was also naked, she immediately giggled and pulled her into a playful hug, teasing, "You little minx, did you mistake me for your husband last night and take my clothes off?"
It was you!
Wen Wan was speechless inside, but she immediately covered it up, saying, "No way! Who knows what you're like. You drank too much last night and even hugged me, saying, 'Hubby, hold me!'"
"Nonsense! I... I don't remember that... It seems I really drank too much last night..." Ling Hanrui stole a glance at Wen Wan and said with a sly smile.
"I... I drank too much last night too... I was in a deep sleep..." Wen Wan quickly agreed, nodding nervously.
Both of them had their own secrets and were subtly probing each other. After some idle chatter, they both finally relaxed a little.
But the passion and depravity from last night lingered in their hearts. Whenever they looked at each other, they couldn't help but recall the madness of the night before, and a guilty, shameful feeling would well up inside them.
Meanwhile, Li Bin, who was washing up, was staring blankly at his reflection in the mirror.
While the depraved scene from last night was endlessly thrilling for him, it also filled him with fear and worry.
He didn't dare to face his wife, Wen Wan.
Right now, all Li Bin wanted was to finish washing up and sneak out of the house first. That way, he wouldn't have to face Ling Hanrui and Wen Wan.
But as luck would have it, just as Li Bin finished washing up and was about to leave the bathroom, the bedroom door also opened.
