Li Youjia was on the verge of breaking down, her grievances bubbling as she turned to Xu Yichen who was driving, and accused, âLook! This is your beloved childhood friend. I donât care about the thirty thousand yuan, I could have just given it to her as a gift to help her out, but how could she screw me over like this?â
Xu Yichen was also surprised that Chen Xixi had swindled his girlfriend, but compared to Li Youjiaâs constant badmouthing of Chen Xixi, her accusations now only made him more resentful.
Somewhat impatiently, he said, âYou already said that you donât care about the thirty thousand yuan. Letâs just leave it at that and keep your distance from her in the future.â
âArenât you going to stand up for me?â
âDo we have to bring her up, even on a holiday?â
The carâs interior was dim, lit intermittently by passing streetlights, giving Li Youjia fleeting glimpses of the manâs stern profile. Even though she couldnât see his eyes, she could feel his impatience.
After a moment of silence, Li Youjia turned her gaze out of the car window, the towering high-rise buildings and the bustling night scene slowly became a blur, shrouded by a misty veil.
She wasnât lacking thirty thousand yuan, what she lacked was Xu Yichen taking a clear stand for her and setting boundaries with Chen Xixi.
Of course, the fact that Chen Xixi treated her like a fool and conned her really infuriated her!!
Li Youjia looked at the two bottles of red wine, growing angrier the more she looked. At the hotel entrance, she decisively turned and threw the two bottles of red wine into the trash can.
Xu Yichen, who didnât manage to stop her in time, sighed helplessly and said, âYou go back and rest first. The client has some issues with the contract; I need to sort it out.â
âSo the clients are more important than me, huh?â Li Youjiaâs haughty demeanor came to the fore. She said coldly, âGo ahead, just donât come back tonight!â
With those words, she turned and left.
Xu Yichen couldnât be bothered to argue; he was used to it. By tomorrow, when her highness cools down, she would stick to him and make up as usual.
The security guard at the hotel entrance saw their figures disappear and sneakily approached the trash can, retrieving the two bottles of red wine.
Opportunities abound in the trash cans of big cities indeed!
â¦
Qixi Festivalâs romantic night, a time for making money and good fortune.
Chen Xixi was leisurely strolling back to her apartment amid the bright city lights.
Making that thirty thousand yuan felt awesome. If not for those two God Gold enthusiasts practically throwing their heads at her, she probably wouldnât have gotten such a good price!
She was certain that Li Youjia would want to show off her superiority in front of her, which is why she dared to quote such a high price.
Itâs all Li Youjiaâs fault for liking to target her.
Otherwise, she wouldnât have been able to manipulate Li Youjiaâs emotions so easily.
Isnât it just about having money? She likes to satisfy her inner pleasure by financially overpowering and impressing others, right?
Then sheâd just satisfy Li Youjia!
[Am I dreaming, girls?! The two bottles of red wine Chen Xixi got from the property managementâs dinner just sold for thirty thousand yuan?!]
[Pure profit, sister! Damn! Please accept my kowtow!]
[Canât imagine if I could net thirty thousand a day, Iâd be such a happy little girl!!]
[Were the two bottles provided by the property management really that expensive? Canât be? If they really provided such expensive wine, wouldnât they be bankrupt? Did Chen Xixi hoodwink that couple?]
[Hahaha! Zheng He must be over the moon with his twenty thousand income today, thinking heâs about to get five million, huh? Too bad he never expected the surprise Chen Xixi would give him tonight!]
[The title of Thrift Queen belongs to Chen Xixi again!!]
[OMG! I thought Chen Xixi was done for, but with these thirty thousand plus the money she has, she should have over twenty-three thousand seven hundred now, OMG! The other guests canât compete!]
[Zheng He: â¦Maybe I should get someone to beat me up again?]
In the apartment.
The time for the funding rankings update arrived, and Zheng He hurriedly took out his phone to check.
He couldnât wait to see the image of Chen Xixi being left far behind!
But when he opened the frugality fund rankings, he felt like there was something wrong with his eyesâ¦
How come the King of Frugality is still Chen Xixi?
Could it be that the ranking hadnât been updated yet?
He refreshed again and looked at his own fund balance, twenty-three thousand seven hundred yuan was correct, and Chen Xixi⦠37,900!!!
He must have counted wrong, he needed to count again⦠It really was 37,000!
What did Chen Xixi do to suddenly increase her funds by so much?!
Moreover, Chen Xixiâs popularity had also surged tremendously.
This unacceptable bad news caused Zheng He to lose sleep.
How could he overtake a gap of over 14,000 yuan, was he supposed to get beaten up againâ¦
No way, the bruises on his face havenât even healed yet!
At the charity event tomorrow, he must make connections with a few tycoons and find a way to have them donate a little, he refused to believe he couldnât topple the tough nut that is Chen Xixi!
Live stream, day twenty-seven.
Zheng He left the apartment early, first he went to the burger shop to charge his phone, and then went to the mall to wash his face and hair, grooming himself meticulously.
If he wanted tycoons to spend money on him, he needed to tidy up his image first!
He had just looked up online how Chen Xixi earned her funds last night, selling two bottles of red wine and netting thirty thousand yuan, and even sold roses and small cakes, if he knew this earlier, he shouldâve seized the business opportunity last night too!
But no matter, today he can sell himself⦠no⦠he means market himself to the tycoons!
Once he convinces the tycoons to invest in him, he will definitely surpass Chen Xixi and become the King of Frugality!
After Zheng He finished grooming, he made a phone call and went to the courier station.
He had purchased a new piece of clothing online.
Wearing dirty clothes every day, plus it being summer, drenched in sweat, even he could hardly stand it.
He tore open the courier package, directly pulling on the brand-new light blue shirt over himself, then in front of the courierâs glass door, he adjusted his bangs a bit, and tugged at his collar, then with both hands in his pockets, he raised his neck, the corner of his lips curling up.
The stylish young man was back!
He put his original dirty clothes into a bag, just about to leave, when the courier behind him noticed the tag still hanging on the collar of his clothes, the kind courier spoke up, âBuddy, let me help you take off the tag!â
Zheng He turned to look at the courier, then raised his hand to feel the exposed tag, tucking the tag inside the shirt, declining, âThanks, no need!â
Once the tag was removed, it wouldnât be easy to return it.
Wearing it for two days and then returning it, he wouldnât have to spend money, and wouldnât have to wear dirty clothes, isnât that delightful?
[Zheng He actually spent money on clothes?]
[Heâs not removing the tag, could it be he plans to wear it for a few days, then return it, and thus wear clothes without spending?]
[Eh? Didnât Chen Xixi also buy a bunch of stuff online yesterday? How come her funds didnât decrease? Is she freeloading again? Where is she freeloading from?]
[Itâs also possible that she was merely browsing the shopping platform and didnât buy anything! How could there be so many platforms to freeload from? Besides, last time the Mysterious Things APP nearly got played out by Chen Xixi and her fans, I bet now other platforms also dare not organize such events.]
About half an hour later, Zheng He arrived at the community, found the person in charge of this event and was talking to them when he unconsciously caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
