Chapter 253: FS Points
Hearing the man's reason, Roland could not help but smile.
It may seem like he was doing it out of good intention, but Roland could actually sense that he has a hidden motive.
"Thank you for your good intentions, mister. But I'll still buy this one no matter how expensive it is. After all, it is a gift for a loved one, you can't buy them something cheap if you have the money, can't you?"
The old man was tongue tied after hearing his words.
Carlos' eyes on the other hand lit up, "Thank you, kind sir!"
Roland nodded his head with a smile, "Alright, pack it up. Swipe this card for the payment as well."
He said, handing out his black atm card from World's Premium Bank.
Seeing that, both Carlos and the Old man widened in surprise.
The word WPB VIP was written clearly on top of the card.
As men who worked in the wealthy industry for some time, they both knew that such cards could not be forged, or copied. Meaning, the card in front of them was the real deal.
Carlos hand's were trembling as he took the atm card out of Desther's hand, doing his best not to accidentally drop it.
Sweat formed at the top of both of their forehead.
Carlos was afraid that something bad would happen to him if he ever dropped this card accidentally.
After all, the card alone, even without any balance, was still more than his life.
The old man clearly knew this as well.
He did not expect that a World's Premium Bank VIP would actually be here.
The old man shifted around uncomfortably. If there was a hole around, he would have already crawled toward it head-first.
Although the guard did not know that much, judging by Carlos and the old man's reaction, he realized this was actually a big client.
He consciously shifted to the side, now notably closer to Roland, ready to protect him if anything bad happened.
Meanwhile, as Carlos swiped his atm card on the small machine, Roland could not help but smile as the long awaited system notification finally flashed in front of his eyes.
Ding!
[You have successfully face-slapped a person: +10 FS Points]
[You have successfully face-slapped a person with two witnesses: +10 FS Points]
[You have successfully face-slapped a person: +10 FS Points]
[You have successfully face-slapped a person with two witnesses: +10 FS Points]
There were only two people that were face-slapped. Roland assumed that it was the old man and Carlos since the guard did not have that much of a reaction after seeing the move he pulled off.
The old man on the other hand was too afraid to stay put.
He kept fidgeting around until he reached the store's exit, before bolting away like a cheetah.
Roland could only chuckle from the old man's action.
It was not that he would bite him for staying a bit longer, no?
Carlos packed the watch in a premium-looking bag including all the papers and proof that it was the real deal.
Returning the card to Roland with trembling hands, Carlos' inner turmoil finally settled down after seeing Roland disappared out of his view.
"Phew! That was nerve wracking. How could such a big shot appear in this small city? Fortunately, I did not raise the price that much, else, I might have screwed it up."
Recalling that he just made a sale, though, Carlos could not help but smile in triumph.
He looked at his guard friend and said, "Let's go have fun tonight, my treat!"
…
Roland roamed around the mall for a few more hours.
He enjoyed it very much, just shopping without a care for the price.
Who said that money could not buy happiness? Look at him earning FS Points just because he used his money to face-slap those that tried to look down on him.
After he was done, Roland earned another 300 FS Points for face-slapping those people. Out of the 300, 200 came from direct 'victims' while the remaining 100 came from witnesses.
Although it was not much, it was still huge progress compared to what he initially thought.
Though, doing such work would be too tiring and would make him exhausted physically and mentally.
Roland thought that there should be better options than this, though. He just needs to find it.
Or maybe, he already did?
Anyway, since he was already done with his shopping, he decided to get some rest in the Sparkling Buds, or more precisely, in Stacey's office in Sparkling Buds.
When he arrived in the parking space, he was surprised to see that there were actually a lot of people present.
Upon looking around, he also saw there were actually a lot of supercars present in the scene, surrounded by multiple people, taking pictures of the cars and the people posing around them.
Looking at the cars, they were certainly cool and had their own kind of vibe.
He took a brief glance at it and was about to call the Rucci store to let them know that he was already in the parking lot, when a guy with spiky hair approached him.
"Hey, bud, want to take pictures of my car as well?" There was a grin on his face as he said that.
When Roland turned to look at him, he noticed that he was pointing at Terrari nearby. It was also the car that was surrounded by most people.
The Terrari looked expensive as well. Although Roland did not know that much about car brands, he at least knew that the car looked cool and expensive.
He was not the type of person to take pictures with someone's car, though.
"Thank you for the offer, but I'll pass up this time," he replied politely.
The spiky haired guy's smile disappeared after hearing his words.
He was just enjoying the feeling of being popular and it was only at this time that he was being generous enough to let others take a picture of his expensive Terrari, and yet, this man is actually refusing his good intention?
"Are you fucking kidding me?"
