Chapter 1278 – Scammed to Death
“Shit!” Only then did Jianwen realize that the entire thing was covered in something slippery. His hands still had the sticky stuff on them! He really wanted to explode- what the hell was this shit?
“My apologies, a bottle of a smoothing agent, got spilled on it earlier, it’s abit slippery, but it slipped from your hands, it’s nothing to do with me!” Xiaoxiao said with a sly smile.
“I-” Jianwen’s eyes were glaringly wide as he held onto his chest. Smoothing agent? Why would a smoothing agent be on the sculpture, this Xiaoxiao was the one who put it on!
Fuck! This woman was the same as Yushu. They were scammers with no heart! He was still consoling himself that while it was some glass he bought for one million, it still had Mengyao’s kiss on it. He could use that for something at home.
But great, now it was shattered! It was nothing, just a bunch of shattered glass!
“Wow, An Jianwen, you’re so rich! One million for a loud bang!” Yushu said admirably.
“I…” Jianwen wanted to say fuck, but he was on stage with Mengyao- she wouldn’t like him if he seemed too petty, so he only smiled painfully. “I’m alright, haha…”
With that, he quickly left the stage with his head held down, returning to his seat.
The audience, however, didn’t know about the smoothing agent- they thought that he was pissed he spent one million on some glass, so he broke it! He even made it look like he accidentally dropped it on the floor because he was too embarrassed to smash it.
As Mengyao breathed in relief, she found herself even starting to feel bad for him! What a tragedy of him to have met Xiaoxiao and Yushu! Not only did his one million get scammed, but the sculpture itself was also destroyed!
Naturally, she didn’t think that the smoothing agent was anything other than purposefully applied by Xiaoxiao- this was completely avoidable. They wanted it to slip.
But this was good- who knew what Jianwen planned on doing with that. Those unhealthy things would trouble her a bit.
Xiaoxiao and Yushu looked at each other- pleased that their evil plan had succeeded.
Lin Yi looked at Jianwen’s sad face and felt speechless- these two girls really had no mercy. Jianwen couldn’t’ even voice his frustrations but swallow them.
After that little incident, the auction ended.
The total amount that was received from the donations was close to two million, but for the orphanage, it wasn’t much. It was all they could do, but it would help soothe out some of their stress.
Lin Yi could tell Lingshan to hold back on how intensely she was sweeping the streets, but he didn’t- Lingshan had her own principles, and he couldn’t just ask her to change that.
Plus, what Xiaoke did wasn’t legal in the first place. She would have to live in the dark and work hard.
She was happy enough already, even though it was just two million! If they kept up this very simple and money-saving life, this would last them quite a while.
After getting kicked down the stage by Lin Yi, Yufeng quickly went to his apartment and called his father. He couldn’t take it anymore. He needed to punish Lin Yi!!
“Feng? Why’re you calling now, aren’t you in school?” Shuixing said, confused.
“Dad, I got kicked by Lin Yi today- I can’t take it anymore, I have to kill him!” Yufeng said right from the get-go, angrily psised.
“Oh/” Shuixing paused. “Lin Yi kicked you? What happened?”
“Well…” Yufeng told his father what happened. “I only barked at his girlfriend a bit, one sentence, and he charged up and kicked me down! That’s what a bully is!”
“With his personality, this isn’t anything new. But it’s been so long, and you still don’t have anything on her background, nor are we clear how strong his strength level is- I’m worried something might go wrong!” Shuixing was a more stable man, looking at the bigger picture. “Yu Feng, the meeting of the noble houses will begin soon, it’s best to avoid trouble at this critical time! House Zhao, being so powerful and all, along with the Xiao’s who have House Pi’s backup- neither of them are going to Lin Yi, why is that? There must be something we don’t know about!”
“But… I can’t just let this go! I’ve lost all my face already. If I don’t find some way to get it back, I can’t stay in this school!” Yu Feng said.
“This can’t be helped. Great men know how to endure!” Shuixing said with a sigh .”House Yu was supposed to be the strongest of the common world’s noble houses, but now that House Xiao has House Pi’s support, they’re not too far off from us. The hidden house Zhao is stronger than us too, but they don’t do anything. Why should we be the ones to go test the waters? What if Lin Yi really has some power behind him we can’t piss off? It’d be the end of our house!”
“End of our house? It’s not that serious, is it? We have the hidden house Yu’s support as well?” Yufeng jumped, calming down and thinking clearly.
“Yes, it is that serious! The hidden house Yu only has a business based relationship with us- they can go sponsor a different house once it’s over for us, just like House Pi and House Xiao. Your uncle still isn’t established in the hidden House Yu yet, let alone be in a position to be making talks!” Shuixing said. “Plus, hidden houses aren’t the peak power in this world, there are ancient sects above them, and even more powerful ones above those ancient sects! It’s just that these old people won’t come out to cause trouble for no good reason. But if you cross their bottom line, they don’t care who you are!”
