You Seem To Be Making So Much Profit?

On hearing her obvious threat, Shopkeeper Zhang decided to step back and leave a way for himself. "Forgive me, I'll bring another brand with the specifications that you asked for," he said with a sharp bow.

Seeing his guilty and nervous actions, her lips curled up happily. "I no longer want that." 

She quickly pulled a notepad out of her bag and wrote a list of her wanted computer parts. 

She wanted to punish him, but she didn't dare to buy a computer from him. What if it had been tampered with? 

It was best just to buy the parts and build her thing herself. 

She added one of the recent iPhone models at the end of the list.

"Storekeeper Zhang, I'll only be paying for the last item," she informed him and then passed the list.

On seeing the list, storekeeper Zhang's face underwent several changes, from anger to fear to frustration to reluctance.

"All of these parts are from high brands and are very expensive," he started, scratching his neck nervously.

"But I'm sure they won't cost as much as me reporting your store. I happen to have a recording of everything that just happened," she lied.

On hearing that, Storekeeper Zhang didn't dare to argue, and he rushed to give the list to his assistant.

"Quick, get everything here from the inside store. Make sure you have the real things that are sealed from the companies." 

The assistant looked at Tang Xinyi with admiration and then rushed out to get the items. 

Behind the screen, Gu Shan glanced at his master, his eyes filled with surprise and questions.

"Master, it seems like this girl was able to figure out that it was a fake product despite how close the imitation is." 

Pei Zhilan had the same thought.

"Mm." 

He felt that if all their customers were like this, there wouldn't be an issue in the first place. 

However, the truth was that it was a hard thing to do. 

When the fake ones were taken back to their company, even the technicians took a while before realising it. 

Yet, this high school girl had seen it at a glance. He couldn't help but feel like there was more to this matter than what they could see. 

While the assistant got the items, Tang Xinyi leaned back against one of the shelves and stared at Shopkeeper Zhang.

"If you keep doing this, they will come knocking on your door before long." 

She knew who the big boss of this company was, and he was a total scoundrel! 

Even when she was an heiress who had everything that she wanted, she would always suffer losses in his hands. 

However, who would have thought that he would have sent her a warning in her last moments? 

Perhaps she might have considered the warning if she hadn't harboured so many unpleasant feelings towards him. 

She could have even avoided the outing and asked her brother to check on their family.

But it was too late now. 

Everything was already gone.

"He is someone who knows how to make people pay their debts. If you don't stop, you will ruin everything you have built." 

The storekeeper nodded attentively even though he had no plan of stopping deep down. 

The people behind the screen also seemed to show a particular interest in this brand. As long as he gave them an explanation for the quantity that was missing in their last order, he knew they would buy more.

So, how could he think of stopping? 

The assistant soon came with a large cart and placed everything on the table. 

Tang Xinyi's eyes gleamed brightly as she saw all the expensive and high-quality parts. 

This trip was a lot more fruitful than she expected. As soon as she got home, she would build a computer that could handle all the work she wanted it to do.

"Thank you, storekeeper Zhang. Where do I make payment?" She asked with a sweet smile.

Seeing her dazzling smile, both storekeeper Zhang and his assistant were stunned. 

Just now, she had been domineering and serious when she broke the computer apart. 

But right now, she looked like a typical high school sweetheart.

It really stirred one's heart…

"Young Miss, there's no need to pay. Just take it that this is a first-time promo. The next time, you can pay…" 

When Tang Xinyi heard this, her eyes shone brightly. 

"Really?" 

Storekeeper Zhang nodded hurriedly. It was better to be good to her and cover the losses than to let her have some wild thoughts.

"In that case, thank you for your kindness." Without waiting any moment longer, Tang Xinyi grabbed the bag and left.

She didn't want storekeeper Zhang to change his mind by wasting too much time. 

After satisfying her, storekeeper Zhang released a breath of relief and returned to the people behind the screen. 

"Young masters, we can continue from where we left matters," he said with a curt bow.

After what happened, Pei Zhilan felt like that little girl had come to help them solve things. 

He could already tell that this storekeeper knew more about the imitation computer. 

Instead of wasting money buying and waiting to see how he would get another supply, they could simply capture him.

Gu Shan could tell his master's thoughts. After all, they had been together for a long time. In addition, he was an equally intelligent person. 

"Mr Zhang, you have wasted our time already for the remaining pieces that were missing. Simply have them sent to our store. We will not demand an explanation anymore." 

Storekeeper Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard this.

This was indeed the best solution. Besides, his profit margin was so wide that he didn't mind sending some extra pieces.

"In that case, I'll have them sent to you by tomorrow. Would you be placing another order?" 

Pei Zhilan finally looked up to meet his gaze, and his peach blossom eyes narrowed dangerously.

"You seem to be making so much profit, storekeeper Zhang?" 

His voice was dangerously low and cold, making storekeeper Zhang confused about how to answer.

However, Pei Zhilan didn't give him a chance.

"Give me a receipt of the girl's order from just now. I want to know everything that she bought." 

Storekeeper Zhang didn't even think twice. He hurriedly asked the assistant to make a copy of the receipt and handed it over while bowing to them. 

Even though he didn't know who this man was, he could tell he was someone noble from his aura, and he didn't dare slack! 

Despite being in a wheelchair, his aura was even stronger than the two people standing. 

"Bring all the latest video games that you have. If anyone asks you, let them know that this is what we came in to buy," Pei Zhilan ordered. 

He knew very well that those people would know that he had stepped out of the house since he did so in broad daylight. However, he would also do well to cover their tracks. 

Gu Shen pulled out a black card and handed it to Shopkeeper Zhang. "Make the payment from here and have them carry all the new models and come with us." 

Like his master, he knew that if they came out of the store carrying all of the video games, those silly people will not bother about searching further. Besides, this shop was not going to exist anytime from now. 

Who would they find to tell tales?

Inside the car, Pei Zhilan checked the receipt he was holding and his lips raised.

This girl had bought computer parts? 

His eyes couldn't help but shine as he remembered how effortlessly she disassembled the computer.

Interesting…
