Chapter 141 - 111: Scammed for Helping an Old Lady?

Chapter 141: Chapter 111: Scammed for Helping an Old Lady?

’Looks like the time isn’t right yet.’

Chen Mo shook his head and stopped dwelling on it.

He wasn’t worried about whether he could activate his constitution; after all, he had already verified it was possible.

’If it hasn’t activated, it just means the time isn’t right.’

He just had to wait patiently.

After eating lunch at home, he took Pan Kejia’s two fake bags and drove to the National Gold International Financial Center.

He went straight to Chanel on the first floor and saw Manager Liu chatting with a sales associate.

"Mr. Chen, you’re here."

When Manager Liu saw Chen Mo arrive, she immediately sent the sales associate away to attend to other matters and personally received him.

"Mr. Chen, let’s go to the lounge and sit for a moment. I’ll take a look at these two bags."

After seeing the two bags in Chen Mo’s hands, Manager Liu thought for a moment before speaking.

"Alright."

Chen Mo understood what she meant; it wouldn’t be convenient to handle this in the busy, open store.

So, he followed her into the lounge.

"Mr. Chen, please have a seat."

"Xiaozheng, bring Mr. Chen a cup of tea."

The manager instructed one of her employees.

After Chen Mo sat down, Manager Liu donned a pair of professional glasses and began to carefully examine the two bags.

While Manager Liu was inspecting the bags, Xiaozheng brought him a cup of tea.

"Thank you."

Chen Mo smiled and nodded at her.

"It’s my pleasure."

Xiaozheng shook her head politely and then left the lounge.

"Mr. Chen, your receipt is real. The bags are definitely from that bitch."

Manager Liu took off her glasses, admitting the bags came from that sales associate.

She had later studied the associate’s counterfeit goods carefully; the stitching technique was very distinctive.

Coupled with the fact that Chen Mo had the receipt, it was certain these two bags came from their store.

"When I heard her talk about this last night, I thought it was pretty incredible too."

Recalling when Pan Kejia had told him about this last night, Chen Mo found it truly hard to keep a straight face.

"I’m very sorry that your girlfriend had such a terrible shopping experience."

"How about this? I’ll exchange them for two new ones. We’ll just need to take your receipt."

Manager Liu didn’t waste any words and directly stated her proposal.

She had already decided how to resolve the matter before Chen Mo arrived.

Even though that sales associate was already in custody, the problems she left behind still had to be dealt with.

If it were anyone else, there would be other ways to handle it.

But for Chen Mo, they could only honestly offer a replacement.

"Deal."

Chen Mo readily accepted.

He originally thought it would be a good deal just to get one new bag in exchange for the two fake ones.

He never expected Manager Liu to directly exchange the two fake bags for two new ones.

"Thank you for your understanding and support, Mr. Chen."

Seeing Chen Mo agree so easily, Manager Liu also breathed a sigh of relief.

"We’re friends, aren’t we?"

Chen Mo said with a smile, waving his hand dismissively.

He had already taken money from her once before, and she was still being so polite to him.

He couldn’t bring himself to ask her for more money.

"I’ve already prepared the bag you mentioned last night."

Manager Liu remembered the bag Chen Mo had asked for last night and said immediately.

"Are there any more? Get me two, please."

Chen Mo thought for a moment. ’If I’m giving them as gifts, I should definitely give one to each person.’

’Giving one to only one person would show favoritism.’

’He was, after all, a man of universal love.’

"For anyone else, we might not have them. But if you’re asking, we definitely do."

Manager Liu smiled and got up to get the bags.

She wasn’t just being polite.

The model Chen Mo wanted was very popular, and many stores were out of stock.

Moreover, you usually had to buy other items to be eligible to purchase it.

Their store didn’t have many in stock either; they were all reserved for VIP clients.

Clearly, Chen Mo was a VIP client.

Soon, the manager returned with two nicely packaged bags.

Adding the two new replacements, that made four bags in total.

’They say a bag can cure a hundred ailments. With these, I can cure four hundred. I’m even better than the top experts at Huashan Hospital.’

Chen Mo looked at the four bags before him and couldn’t help but laugh to himself.

He paid for two of the bags himself, while the store paid for the other two.

Manager Liu gave him a 12% discount and said that whenever Chen Mo shopped at their store, he would always get the same discount.

A 12% discount might not seem like much, but luxury brands rarely offer any discounts.

This is to maintain the brand’s prestige.

If it’s discounted, can you even call it a luxury item?

Besides, luxury goods are very expensive. For example, the two bags Chen Mo just bought totaled 108,000 yuan.

Even with a 12% discount, he saved nearly 13,000 yuan.

In the end, he only had to pay 95,000 yuan.

If Chen Mo ever fell on hard times, he could make a living just by being a personal shopper for others.

If he bought 100,000 yuan worth of goods for someone, he could pocket 12,000 yuan from the discount alone.

However, with his constitution on his side, he probably would never see the day he’d need to make money by pocketing discounts.

"Manager, could you help me pick out a few seasonal outfits?"

After buying the bags, Chen Mo asked the manager to help him choose some clothes.

"Mr. Chen, you have such a great figure and you’re so handsome. You’re practically a walking mannequin."

"It’s a real pleasure to pick out clothes for you."

Manager Liu readily agreed and began to help him pick out clothes.

’Look at the emotional value she’s providing.’

’There are only two words for it.’

’Perfect score.’

In the end, Manager Liu picked out several autumn outfits that suited him very well.

After the discount, the total was still nearly 100,000 yuan.

After spending nearly 200,000 yuan in the store, Manager Liu had an employee help him carry the large and small shopping bags to his 911 in the underground garage.

"Thanks."

After thanking the employee, Chen Mo drove away from National Gold.

Driving down the road, Chen Mo noticed some congestion ahead and lightly tapped the brakes to slow down.

As he inched forward, he saw the cause of the traffic jam.

There was an old lady lying on the sidewalk up ahead.

But both pedestrians and vehicles seemed to not see her, detouring around her one after another.

No one went to help her up, nor did anyone call for an ambulance or the police.

Everyone acted as if nothing was happening and hurried past.

Seeing this, Chen Mo didn’t really have much to say.

Seeking fortune and avoiding misfortune is a basic human instinct.

In the past, when he encountered such situations, he also would have turned a blind eye and walked away.

Maybe if someone helped her, nothing would happen.

But what if something did?

As an ordinary person, could you bear the consequences?

When you’re the one getting scammed, you learn your lesson.

Don’t think the nearby surveillance cameras will help. If someone is determined to scam you, proving your innocence is a huge hassle.

It wastes a lot of time and energy, and it disrupts your work and life.

’I wonder if this situation could activate my constitution.’

Chen Mo felt a little eager to try; he wanted to go over and see.

If it didn’t activate his constitution, he would immediately run as far away as possible and would never even glance in her direction.

But his constitution was "the unluckier, the luckier."

If he got scammed, that would definitely count as being unlucky.

He just didn’t know who would be more powerful then—him, a "conceptual god," or the "conceptual god" lying on the ground.

’An extortionist versus an extortionist. Let’s see who comes out on top.’

Thinking about how he had also activated his constitution through an "extortion" of sorts, Chen Mo couldn’t help but chuckle.

Having made his decision, Chen Mo slowly pulled his car over to the side of the road.

Then he opened the car door, got out, and walked straight toward the old lady.

"Young man, don’t go."

At that moment, a middle-aged man saw Chen Mo heading straight for the old lady and immediately offered a well-intentioned warning.

A young fellow like Chen Mo couldn’t handle this kind of situation.

He didn’t have the means.

"Thanks, but my teacher taught me not to stand by and watch someone die."

Chen Mo replied casually and continued walking toward the old lady.

"This kid has read too many books and become a fool."

The middle-aged man was slightly taken aback, then shook his head and sighed.

"I saw that young man get out of that red sports car. He’s probably loaded, so he isn’t afraid."

Someone nearby pointed at the 911 Chen Mo had parked by the roadside.

"See? I told you studying is useful."

The middle-aged man glanced at the red 911, then back at Chen Mo, and immediately changed his tune.

If he could afford a supercar, he’d have the confidence to help too.

"I’ll take a video, so the kid doesn’t get scammed."

As if remembering something, he quickly took out his phone to record.

’This is all evidence. If Chen Mo gets scammed, he might need to ask me for the video.’

’Given his net worth, driving a supercar and all, he’d probably give me some money for it.’

Just then, Chen Mo reached the old lady lying on the ground.

He squatted down slightly to observe her and noticed that her breathing was relatively steady, but her face showed a faint expression of pain.

"Ma’am, are you alright? Should I call an ambulance for you?"

Chen Mo leaned closer to the old lady and asked with concern.

"What are you doing, hitting an old woman like me..."

The old lady mumbled, her eyes still closed.

"?"

Hearing this, Chen Mo’s face was a mask of confusion.

’Seriously?’

’Is this a zero-frame startup?’

’You could at least open your eyes and see who you’re talking to before you launch your attack.’

’She didn’t even see me and just dropped a line like that.’

’Who can even deal with this?’

DING!

And just then, a familiar notification sound suddenly rang in Chen Mo’s mind.

Hearing this sound, the question marks on Chen Mo’s face instantly vanished.

Replaced by an irrepressible smile.

’A conceptual god?’

’Sorry, but so am I.’
