Chapter 153: Your Invitation is Really Ugly
by xennovel“Sir! Please, sir, don’t go! I was wrong! Sir, please stay, I was wrong!”
He Chao was terrified, frantically shouting after Xu Shaochen’s departing figure.
If the store gets smashed, the loss and impact wouldn’t be trivial.
If he had known it would turn out like this, even if he had been given a million guts, he wouldn’t have dared to treat Xu Shaochen as a fool and rip him off.
Xu Shaochen ignored He Chao’s cries and got into the car with Xie Wei.
“Why? Our boss is usually very good-tempered, but there are always fools who think they can take advantage of him just because he’s nice. People like you.”
Long Yi expressionlessly patted He Chao’s face, then raised a chair and began smashing up the store.
In just a short while, the store was in complete disarray.
He Chao watched the scene, on the verge of tears, but despite holding his Phone, he didn’t dare to make a call.
Because he knew if he didn’t place that call, this matter would end here.
But if he did, it might not be just the store being wrecked next time.
At least, selling those two necklaces for a sky-high price of seventy million was some small consolation.
As for the bald-headed middle-aged man and his woman, they were already crouching in a corner, trembling like two frightened mice.
He thought he was so impressive, running a decent business and having some reputation in the underworld, that big shots would all give him some respect.
But today, he realized that in front of certain people, his so-called power was nothing.
The moment Xu Shaochen dared to pull out a gun in broad daylight, it was already clear. That was confidence and disdain.
If someone dared to do that, it meant they had the ability to handle any trouble they caused.
Thinking about how he had dared to point at Xu Shaochen’s nose and curse him out, he felt a wave of fear, murmuring to himself, “Thank God I’m still alive.”
“Ha! Idiot. Instead of thanking God, you should thank my boss. The Almighty doesn’t have time for you, but my boss can always take care of you.”
Long Er let out a snort, sneering disdainfully.
The bald-headed middle-aged man’s heart trembled with fear once again before his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
………………
“Here, this is yours.”
In the car, Xu Shaochen handed one of the necklaces to Xie Wei.
“Thank you, honey. Can you put it on for me?”
Xie Wei smiled and kissed Xu Shaochen on the cheek. Throughout, she never asked about the gun.
Because a smart woman knows what she should ask and what she shouldn’t.
“Alright, let me put it on for you.”
Xu Shaochen smiled as he took out the necklace and put it on Xie Wei.
The emerald green jade contrasting against her creamy skin made Xie Wei look even more ethereal.
More importantly, the pendant seemed to make that cleavage look even deeper.
“How is it? Does it look good?”
Xie Wei ran her fingers through her hair, fully exposing her neck to Xu Shaochen.
“It looks great. This necklace is so white, so big, so deep.”
Xu Shaochen nodded, sincerely complimenting her.
“So white? Ah! Honey, you’re so naughty! You’re taking advantage of me again.”
Xie Wei was stunned for a moment, then blushed furiously, playfully hitting Xu Shaochen with her fists.
Soon after, they started fooling around again in the car.
Outside the car, Long Yi and Long Er, having already smashed up the store, were standing some distance away, smoking. Hearing the faint sounds of laughter and heavy breathing from the car, neither dared to approach.
“Honey, stop, they’re all waiting.”
Xie Wei struggled to push Xu Shaochen off her, tidied up her messy hair, and pointed out the window at Long Yi and Long Er, her face flushed with embarrassment.
“Get in the car.”
Xu Shaochen rolled down the window and shouted to the two outside.
After having dinner with Xie Wei, Xu Shaochen took her back to school.
Then he went to the hospital to visit his mother. It wasn’t until 8 PM that he left and headed towards the Du Family estate.
………………
The Du Family lives in a secluded estate in the West Mountain District.
The West Mountain District is one of the most famous wealthy areas in Jiangzhou. All the residences here are spacious, independent estates.
When Xu Shaochen arrived, the outside of the Du Family estate was already packed with luxury cars and prestigious guests.
After parking his car, Xu Shaochen straightened his clothes before getting out with the gift.
After all, it’s basic etiquette. If you’re visiting someone’s house, dressing too casually would be disrespectful to the host.
“Good evening, sir. May I please see your invitation?”
The guard at the entrance politely asked Xu Shaochen.
Xu Shaochen nodded and was about to take out the invitation when a hand suddenly extended in front of him.
Looking up, he saw a young man in a white suit cutting in line and handing his invitation to the guard first.
Xu Shaochen was slightly annoyed but only furrowed his brow without saying anything.
After all, this was a minor issue, and it was the Du Family’s happy occasion today. He didn’t want to ruin the mood by making a fuss.
But even if he didn’t seek trouble, trouble sought him.
“Kid, what are you looking at? Are you dissatisfied? Well, you’ll just have to suck it up!”
Noticing Xu Shaochen’s gaze, the young man in the white suit sneered at him dismissively.
“It’s nothing. I just think your invitation is really ugly. Just like you—so ugly it’s unbearable to look at.”
Xu Shaochen smiled lightly as he spoke. He wasn’t joking; the young man’s invitation was indeed uglier than his.
“What did you say?”
The young man in the white suit widened his eyes in disbelief, as if he had just heard the most ridiculous thing.
“I said, your invitation is really ugly.”
Xu Shaochen repeated himself calmly.
“Hahaha! Are you serious? Did you hear what he just said? He said my invitation is ugly! Hahaha…”
The young man in the white suit burst into exaggerated laughter, attracting attention.
Everyone else also started laughing, their gazes at Xu Shaochen filled with mockery.
“Kid, if you don’t know, don’t embarrass yourself. This is a high-level Du Family invitation. Not everyone qualifies to get one.”
A young man in the crowd looked at Xu Shaochen with disdain, his gaze towards the young man in the white suit filled with reverence.
After all, just having a high-level Du Family invitation already proved that his status was extraordinary.
The young man in the white suit wore a smug expression, snorting arrogantly as he said, “Kid, do you still think it’s ugly now? Would you even have the qualifications to get this invitation?”
“This invitation, I indeed don’t have. Because I’m not interested.”
Xu Shaochen smiled slightly and then took out his own invitation, handing it to the guard.
Wow! As soon as they saw that invitation, everyone was stunned, staring at Xu Shaochen in shock.
