”Useless trash.”

Xu Gang muttered under his breath as he approached with a wine glass in hand and roughly pushed the waiter aside.

”Heh heh, Miss Ye, you’ve become even more beautiful since the last time I saw you.” Xu Gang’s face was plastered with smiles, ”For such a beautiful lady to dine, how can there not be flowers and red wine as accompaniments? But even with flowers and wine, having a pauper by your side still doesn’t bring out Miss Ye’s stunning beauty.”

At this point, some people in the hall began to take notice of Xu Gang’s actions.

”Yo, isn’t that Boss Xu Gang? The women he sets his eyes on can never escape.”

”Exactly, don’t be fooled by Xu Gang’s age; he’s always willing to spend money on women, so those legs are always ready to open for him.”

”Haha, you’re right, there’s going to be a good show today...”

These onlookers were the types that loved to watch a scene unfold, gossiping excitedly from the sidelines.

Jing Yi’s façade of calm crumbled when Xu Gang came over, particularly as she remembered the day he nearly drugged her. Her face darkened, and she shot Jiang Chen a fierce glare, signaling for him to step in.

She knew Jiang Chen was acquainted with Zhang Long and wasn’t intimidated by Xu Gang. Although she wished for Jiang Chen not to be too involved with Zhang Long, she had no solution for dealing with Xu Gang; her family could not afford to offend him.

But Jiang Chen still showed no reaction, leisurely continuing to eat his meal.

Ye Jingyi grew anxious. Why was Jiang Chen not doing anything?

She couldn’t help the deep self-mockery and disappointment that surged within her.

It seemed she had overestimated Jiang Chen; he was nothing but a shrinking turtle. He didn’t dare to lift his head in front of the waiter, and now with Xu Gang in front of him, he was too scared to even utter a word.

Trash! Absolute trash!

She truly began to regret registering her marriage with Jiang Chen.

Observing this scene, the nearby waiter also revealed a smug smile. Boss Xu was indeed powerful; with just one move, he had intimidated this kid. Now everything was surely sorted.

Seeing Jiang Chen’s inaction, Xu Gang couldn’t help but feel smug. He then turned to Jiang Chen, ”Jiang Chen, that’s right, keep your head down and eat. Hurry up and scram after you’re done. Places like this aren’t meant for you.

And Miss Ye, she isn’t someone you could ever possess.”

After speaking, he watched Jiang Chen with a cold sneer.

The waiter looked on with scorn.

Even the surrounding diners turned their attention to this spot, taking pleasure in the misfortune as they waited for Jiang Chen’s reaction.

Finally finished with his meal, Jiang Chen took a napkin, wiped his mouth in an unhurried manner, raised his head, and looked at Xu Gang, his voice calm, ”Xu Gang, have you forgotten how pain feels since your scars healed?”

”Oh my.” Xu Gang feigned an exaggerated reaction, ”What? You’re going to hit me? This is the Splendid Hotel; the people eating here are all from high society. Only lowly and poor people like you resort to violence.”

”Hmph, that’s typical of the poor, no skills other than resorting to violence.”

”Exactly, just looking at how he’s dressed, you can tell. How did such an uncouth pauper even get in here?”

”His woman, though, is truly beautiful. It’s like a swan stepping into a gutter, getting dirtied by the rotten fish.”

The other guests in the hall looked at Jiang Chen with disdain, mocking him openly.

Xu Gang was quite satisfied with the effect he had created and cast a sneering glance at Jiang Chen before turning to Ye Jingyi, ”Miss Ye, you’ve heard it all. Do you really think he suits you better than I do?”

As he spoke, he casually pulled out a Maserati car key worth two million from his pocket and tossed it in front of Ye Jingyi.

”Miss Ye, if you drive away this puking boy now, I’ll immediately give you my Maserati.”

Ye Jingyi, her face flushed with shame and anger, was at a loss.

Jiang Chen spoke dismissively, ”Your car is second-hand.”

”Second-hand?” Xu Gang sneered, ”It’s a two million car, you got the guts to buy a new one?”

”I sure do.”

Jiang Chen smiled and pointed outside to the parked vehicles, ”I’d like to ask, where is the person in charge of the car show outside?”

”I’m right here.” A voice came from the side, a middle-aged man at a nearby table looked over, ”I’m in charge of this car show. What about it, you want to buy one of our cars?”

His voice was full of disdain; it was evident he too had little respect for Jiang Chen. He came closer, seemingly just to enjoy the thrill of putting someone in their place.

Jiang Chen cracked a slight smile, raised his hand, and pointed at a blue sports car right in the middle outside the window, asking casually, ”Is that car for sale?”

Everyone in the hall turned their heads to look, and immediately some people gasped.

”Is that a Lamborghini-Aventador?!”

”It must be four or five million, right?”

”What four or five million, this is the latest version, over six million. I just asked about the price, I can’t afford it.”

”What’s this guy getting at? He’s not seriously thinking of buying it, is he?”

”Can he afford it? Pretending to be rich when he’s poor.”

There was a flurry of such discussions among the crowd.

Jinhai City is just a second-tier city, where cars worth two or three million do exist, but they’re not very common. Even among the so-called respectable people eating in this hotel that ranks in Jinhai City, it’s considered good to have a car worth a million. Cars over five million are beyond most of these people.

”Haha, if it’s on display, isn’t it for sale? Are you buying it? Can you afford it?” Before the car show manager, Pang Dacheng, could speak, Xu Gang started to mock.

Jiang Chen ignored him, staring straight at Pang Dacheng.

”Of course it’s for sale, but can you really afford it? That’s 6.8 million.”

The sales manager Pang Dacheng was equally disdainful; he had been at the car show for several days, and although many people had inquired, they were all scared off by the price. The high-end spending power in Jinhai was truly lacking, not to mention the obviously poor-looking young man in front of him.

But Jiang Chen immediately pulled out a bank card and slapped it on the table: ”Good, I’ll take it, to give to my wife.”

Everyone was startled and looked at the bank card on Jiang Chen’s table with skeptical eyes, murmuring to each other in low voices.

”Is that guy really laying it on thick? He even slapped down his bank card?”

”Look at the way he’s dressed. Does that bank card even have that much money in it?”

”You’re asking the wrong question; you should ask if there’s any money on that bank card at all.”

”Haha, right.”

Xu Gang also rolled his eyes, glanced at the bank card, looked at Jiang Chen, and sneered in his heart: Still trying to bluff me?

”Alright, those are your words. Just don’t have a card decline because of insufficient funds, and then claim you brought the wrong card, that the card with money was left at home. That would just be disappointing.”

Xu Gang directly blocked Jiang Chen’s way out with his words. Extremely arrogant, extremely cunning.

Yet Jiang Chen still ignored Xu Gang, only staring at Pang Dacheng, and asked calmly, ”If I buy it, will you sell it to me?”

”Sell, if you have the money, I will sell it,” Pang Dacheng responded with a disdainful laugh, also believing that Jiang Chen was just pretending.

However, at that moment, Ye Jingyi was truly anxious: ”Jiang Chen, are you crazy? I didn’t ask you to buy me a car.”

Ye Jingyi meant well, she knew there was money in Jiang Chen’s card, but it was Zhang Long’s money, not to be used. Now, if Jiang Chen used that money to buy a car, wouldn’t that be walking right into a trap?

She couldn’t let Jiang Chen do this.

But her words sounded different to others.

”See? Even that woman knows this guy is just showing off, haha.”

”Exactly, women don’t want to be embarrassed and have to stop him.”

”But can she stop it?”

”Haha...”

People laughed loudly.

Xu Gang was even more delighted, quickly interjecting, ”Hey, you said you’re going to buy, you can’t go back on your word now. Manager Pang, go ahead, swipe the card.”

”No problem, here it comes.” Pang Dacheng was all too cooperative and immediately signaled someone to bring over the POS machine.

The crowd knew it was time for a face-slapping show-off moment and perked up their spirits.

They were all waiting to see Jiang Chen make a fool of himself.
