Rebirth: I have Monopoly System

Wu Yun stood to the side, watching them swap places and take turns snapping photos.

Wu Ying sat on the sofa, posing as if she were gazing out the window at the vintage architecture of Taikoo Li below.

Jiang Xinyi lay on her stomach on the bed, striking various poses for the camera and getting a few wide shots of the room. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Watching their alluring and provocative poses, the virile young man found it a bit overwhelming. He turned away and discreetly adjusted his pants.

Wu Yun plopped down on the sofa. Watching the two women photograph each other as if he weren’t even there, he felt like something was missing. "Ladies, you haven’t taken any pictures in the bathtub yet!"

Wu Yun’s words drew a charming laugh from both women.

"You little pervert, what are you thinking!"

"Trying to take advantage of us? Not a chance."

....

"Kiddo? Kiddo?"

"Wu Yun! Wake up!"

Wu Yun opened his eyes. Seeing that the two women were already dressed and ready to go, he realized he had just been resting his eyes on the sofa and had fallen asleep.

"What time is it?" Wu Yun asked, not fully awake yet.

"It’s 2:50. We saw you were asleep, so we took a few more pictures!" Wu Yun quite liked her soft, sweet voice.

"Hurry and get up. Don’t we have to go shopping? We’ll leave our stuff here for now. We need to go get the key cards for the room we booked first." When Wu Ying mentioned shopping, her voice seemed to rise a few pitches.

Wu Ying got the key cards, put them in her bag, and turned to ask Wu Yun, "Kiddo, what kind of clothes are you looking to buy? Give us some requirements so we know where to take you."

"To be honest, I really don’t know much about luxury goods. I was always busy with school before, so I never looked into it. I’d like to buy brands where the logo isn’t so obvious. I don’t want to be that flashy," Wu Yun said.

Wu Ying and Jiang Xinyi had already pegged Wu Yun as a second-generation heir fresh out of his college entrance exams. It seemed perfectly normal to them that he wouldn’t know about luxury brands.

"Honestly, I only bought this watch because I thought it looked good. But looking at it now, it doesn’t really match what I’m wearing."

Jiang Xinyi glanced at the IWC mechanical watch on Wu Yun’s wrist, then at his clothes, and covered her mouth with a laugh. "It really doesn’t match. A Casio watch would be more suitable for your current outfit. That watch of yours is better for when you’re wearing a suit or smart casual. Let’s go, we’ll look at some casual wear first!"

Wu Ying added, "Based on your request for a less obvious logo, I think Burberry’s summer collection is very understated and low-key."

.................

"Wu Yun, what about this T-shirt? It’s pretty low-key." Wu Ying held up a white T-shirt and waved it a little.

If he hadn’t been so close, Wu Yun wouldn’t have even been able to see the logo on the chest. It was indeed very low-key, as low-key as a white tee from Taobao that costs a couple of bucks.

’But I should try to change my perspective,’ Wu Yun thought. ’I can’t keep looking at things with an ordinary person’s mindset. Why do rich people buy luxury goods? Don’t they know that aside from the logo, the quality of products from Yiwu might even be better?’

’In reality, you’re buying the service, the brand name, and the mentality. It’s about displaying your status.’

Wu Yun snuck a peek at the price tag. ’Not expensive at all,’ he thought sarcastically, ’just 5,000 yuan...’

"Sister Ying, could you help me pick out some pants too? Let’s put together three or four outfits!" Wu Yun’s tone was nonchalant, stating his request as if he were online shopping.

Hearing Wu Yun’s words, the salesperson standing nearby broke into an even wider smile and hurried over to help select clothes and pants.

Under Wu Ying and Jiang Xinyi’s direction, Wu Yun was like a puppet on a string. In the end, they picked out three outfits: one white T-shirt for 5,000 yuan, two identical polo shirts (one black, one white) at 3,800 yuan each, a pair of khaki casual trousers for 4,400 yuan, and two pairs of shorts (one khaki, one black) at 3,500 yuan each.

After they finished picking out the clothes and pants, the salesperson asked if they wanted to look at shoes, but both women shot the idea down. They both agreed that Burberry’s shoes were no good.

"Hello, sir. Your total comes to 24,000 yuan. Will you be paying with cash or card?" In 2014, Alipay had a transaction limit.

Wu Yun took out his ordinary bank card. "Card!"

Account debit: 24,000 yuan. New balance: 101,950.5 yuan.

System Experience +24,000. Level 4 (124,087 / 10,000,000)

"[System Notification: 3x Rebate Triggered. Rebate: 72,000 yuan. Current Limit: 3,093,700 (out of 3,240,000)]"

Account credit: 72,000 yuan. New balance: 173,950.5 yuan.

Watching Wu Yun swipe his card without batting an eye, Wu Ying and Jiang Xinyi grew even more curious about him.

Stepping out of the Burberry store, Wu Ying asked, "Kiddo, are you buying more?"

"Of course. The more, the merrier. I’m hoping for a transformation before school starts. I don’t plan on keeping any of my old clothes," Wu Yun said.

"I love luxury goods, but I have to say, there aren’t many good-looking menswear options at the luxury stores around here. Plus, a lot of the styles aren’t suitable for your age. You don’t have to focus only on luxury brands," Jiang Xinyi said from the side.

Wu Yun felt Jiang Xinyi’s words were very reasonable, but he still explained, "Sister Xinyi, I still think Nike and Adidas’s styles suit me better, but I want to broaden my horizons."

Seeing that Wu Yun was spending money like it was water, Jiang Xinyi didn’t say anything more and led him towards the Louis Vuitton store.

"Welcome to Louis Vuitton!" The salespeople, seeing Wu Yun carrying several Burberry shopping bags, greeted him enthusiastically.

A salesperson stepped forward and asked, "What can I help you with today?"

"Ask him!" Wu Ying said, pointing at Wu Yun, her eyes practically glued to the Louis Vuitton bags.

"Shoes, clothes, pants—show me everything!" Wu Yun said directly, not waiting for the salesperson to speak.

...................

Wu Yun felt like his eyes were swimming from looking at so many options. In the end, he bought himself a pair of shoes and a black polo shirt for a total of 13,000 yuan.

To thank the two women for shopping with him, Wu Yun also bought each of them a 12,000 yuan bag, much to their surprise. They tried to refuse but couldn’t, and their affection for their generous "kiddo" soared.

Experience +37,000.

To Wu Yun’s disappointment, he only got one critical hit.

As if they’d been shot up with adrenaline, Wu Ying and Jiang Xinyi accompanied Wu Yun to a few more stores, but they didn’t find any suitable clothes.

"Agh, no more shopping! This is exhausting!" In a coffee shop, Wu Yun collapsed into a booth, all semblance of composure gone.

"I’m seriously impressed by you girls’ stamina when you shop. You can go for hours without getting tired."

"That’s the joy of shopping. It’s like when you play video games; you can play for hours and never get tired," Jiang Xinyi said, becoming more talkative.

"It’s getting late. Let’s go back to the hotel, drop our things off, and then get some dinner," Wu Ying said, gesturing with her watch.

The three of them returned to the hotel. They first went up to the 24th floor, where Wu Ying and Jiang Xinyi retrieved their small suitcases.

"Kiddo, we’re going back to our room first. We need to touch up our makeup, so it might be a little while. We’ll call you when we’re ready," Wu Ying said with a smile, standing at the door.

"Kiddo, you could change into one of your new outfits. Let us see how it looks later," Jiang Xinyi added playfully, and that soft, sweet voice of hers sent a little thrill through him.

Watching the two women’s figures disappear around the corner of the hallway, Wu Yun closed the door.
