Chapter 192 Conflict(1/2)

 South Coast Mall Center.

This is a large shopping mall with more than 400 stores of all kinds, all of which are well-known brands with expensive prices. This is Luke's first time shopping here.

He didn't expect that the first time he came to the mall for shopping was to buy a coffee machine.

However, seeing Daisy's serious look, he didn't say anything.

Perhaps for Americans, coffee has become an indispensable part.

This shopping mall is very large, with four floors up and down. This may not be a big deal in China, but it is considered a high-rise building in Los Angeles, and the shopping mall covers an area much larger than that in China.

The two of them went directly to the third floor of the shopping mall. This place basically sells electrical appliances. There are all kinds of electrical appliances. There are four brands of coffee machines alone.

One of the brands mainly produces large coffee vending machines.

The other three brands are for household use.

Luke didn’t know much about how to choose a coffee machine, so he mainly relied on Daisy’s advice.

Daisy gave three standards. First, it must be freshly ground coffee.

Second, it is easy to clean. This is very important. If it is complicated to clean, it will probably be left idle after only a few uses.

The third one is the type of coffee you can make. The clear coffee function is relatively simple, but the mixed coffee function has more functions and the price is slightly more expensive.

After some selection, Luke selected a brand of coffee machine called Meritor, which costs about US$1,500.

"Invincibility starts with sacrificing the ancestor"

He tried it and found that the coffee tasted very good and the milk was foamed very professionally.

Luke thinks this price is enough, but if it goes higher, he won't be able to accept it. It's not that he doesn't have money, he just thinks this thing has low technical content.

This price is enough to buy a good quality coffee machine. If it is higher, it will be a brand premium or an IQ tax.

After buying the coffee machine, the two started shopping for clothes.

Luke has been busy since arriving in Los Angeles and has not been to the mall very much. This time, with Daisy accompanying the two of them, they can have a romantic time.

The second floor sells clothes, and when the two of them got off the elevator, they happened to be in the men's clothing area.

Luke visited several stores and bought a T-shirt, a shirt, two pairs of trousers, a pair of shorts, 3 pairs of underwear, and 3 pairs of socks. The total cost was less than two hundred dollars.

He doesn't pay much attention to clothes. As long as a man is handsome, tall and has a good figure, it doesn't matter what clothes he wears.

In his opinion, clothes are just to keep out the cold and cover up shame, and buying too expensive ones is useless.

In fact, this also applies to women. If you are beautiful and have a good figure, does it matter what you wear?

After that, Luke bought another pair of shoes, which cost nearly two hundred dollars.

He attaches great importance to shoes. Whether they fit his feet is very important and cannot be compromised.

You get what you pay for. If you wear good shoes and then wear ordinary shoes, you will know the difference.

I didn’t think so when I was young, but once I have some life experience, I will understand the importance of protecting my feet.

If a foot is injured, a person is half disabled.

This is especially true for the police.

After Luke finished shopping, he started shopping with Daisy.

Luke doesn't like shopping, but today is different. He has to go shopping with Daisy.

This is the first time the two have officially gone shopping since they started dating.

Daisy went shopping for cosmetics first and bought some random facial masks, perfumes, and skin care products. Luke didn't know much about them either. He only knew that he spent nearly 3,000 US dollars.

Daisy bought two more outfits for about $1,500.

After that, I bought another pair of shoes for $700.

Luke secretly sighed. Fortunately, he had a cheat, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to support her. These daily items cost more than five thousand dollars.

What if I buy another bag?

Of course, Daisy did not spend money randomly, it also had something to do with her work.

The legal profession is quite snobbish.

This snobbery is not a derogatory term, but clients will also consider the strength of the lawyer before choosing a law firm and lawyer.

The lawyer's own financial ability is also considered.

Lawyers have high consumption and high income, which proves your ability. On the contrary, if you wear rags and can't even afford to buy clothes, how can your clients trust you?

When many new lawyers enter the profession and have not yet made any money, they first buy an expensive suit.

Lawyers not only represent individuals, but also law firms.

This is the difference between the two industries and the consumption outlook attached to the industry attributes.

After Daisy finished shopping, Luke wanted to help pay, but Daisy refused.

Daisy was financially independent, and Luke didn't insist on it.

This may also have something to do with Daisy's original family.

At noon, two people had a buffet together.

You can eat lobster, tuna, salmon, grouper, abalone, oysters, and all kinds of seafood.

Wagyu beef, ham, foie gras, etc., and various meats are also available in unlimited quantities.

Daisy's appetite is mediocre and she will definitely not be able to get her money back.

But Luke will definitely get his money back.

The two of them also drank a bottle of red wine, and the atmosphere needed to be stirred up.

After dinner, Luke wanted to take Daisy to a movie. The two of them have known each other for such a long time, but they haven't watched a movie together yet. Is this ridiculous?

The two of them arrived at the theater and were worried when buying tickets. There was no movie they wanted to watch.

"Jingle Bell……"

A cell phone rang.

Luke took out his cell phone and saw it was a call from his mother.

Luke was a little surprised. He didn't tell his mother about the break. She rarely called her during working hours.

Luke glanced around, did his mother know that he was on a date?

No one was seen.

Luke pressed the answer button, "Hi, beauty, do you want to see me?"

"Luke, where are you now?" Linda's voice was serious.

"I'm at South Coast Mall, what's wrong?"

"Something happened to your uncle and he was taken to the police station by the police. You'd better come."

Luke frowned, "What happened?"

"He got into a fight with someone, and now he may be accused of intentional injury."

"Why fight?"

"Well... Val got a job at a supermarket.

There is a bastard who has done zero-dollar shopping more than once.

Every time they made a mess in the supermarket, Val couldn't stand it anymore, so he stopped the other party. There was a conflict between the two, and he injured the other party."

"Is the other party seriously injured?"

"I don't think it's serious, but the other party refuses to reconcile and insists on suing Val for intentional injury."

"Who made the move first?"

"Wal said that the other party made the first move, but the surveillance did not capture it at the time.

Moreover, the other party refuses to admit it, and the other party is seriously injured. The situation is very unfavorable for Val, and he will probably be detained."

"Have you found a lawyer?"

"No, do you know a good lawyer? Money is not an issue. I will ask your grandpa to reimburse you."

Luke glanced at Daisy next to him and said, "Of course, I'll rush over right away."

Luke hung up the phone, and Daisy beside him asked, "What happened?"

"My uncle works in a supermarket. Someone in the supermarket was shopping for zero yuan. He stepped in to stop the other person. As a result, the two of them fought and the other party sued him for intentional injury.

My uncle said that the other party did it first, but the other party refused to admit it, and the surveillance did not capture it, so the matter was quite troublesome." After Luke finished speaking, he looked at Daisy aside, "Are you busy lately?"

Daisy asked, "You want me to be your uncle's lawyer?"

"What do you think? It doesn't matter if you find it inconvenient, I can find another lawyer."

Luke has two candidates in mind, one is Daisy and the other is Potter.
