In the end, the beauty harrumphed but accepted Gao Feng’s suggestion. With her ten-centimeter-high pumps, she whipped around and went off to ‘make friends’ with those handsome men.
“…”
Tian Haoran and his two friends frowned. “We’d better strike this place off our list. We are not suited for such a place. We were just thinking of having a change of environment for once, but it’s been proven that such an idea was wrong. I think we’d better just head down to auntie’s villa. There’s no lack of alcohol there, and we’ve everything we need there too.”
“I agree.”
“Seconded.”
Although Gao Feng and Zhu Yu had no experience in that area, it did not mean that they were fools and were ignorant about what that woman’s glance meant earlier. It was truly because they were good-natured. Otherwise, they might very well have gotten into a fight with women like that.
“All right, don’t get upset. Maybe she was trying to goad us into action. It would be ridiculous to treat people like that seriously.” After calming down, Tian Haoran thought more about the matter. He clearly realized that the beauty had indeed accepted Gao Feng’s suggestion. But the problem was that even while talking to those men, that woman’s eyes would glance toward them from time to time. It was clear that she had not given up.
That was expected. After all, when ordinary men encountered such a suspicious thing, and with the other party offering herself up to them at no cost, they would typically not be able to resist themselves and would fall for it.
Tsk!
Tian Haoran felt that their way of thinking made it seem as though they were not normal men. “Let’s go back to the villa. It’s already quite late. If we go back now, we’ll probably wake the emperors and empresses at home. If that happens, there will really be a commotion then.”
“Auntie Qiao is indeed wise.” Gao Feng raised both his hands in approval. Without Auntie Qiao’s villa, they would have no choice but to stay in a hotel for the night. There was no way a hotel could compare with their homes in terms of comfort. Long live understanding, long live Auntie Qiao.
Zhu Yu hit Gao Feng’s head. “Auntie Qiao’s not even here. Stop trying to suck up to her! She won’t even know anything about this anyway!” Gao Feng was a rascal, who had known to curry favor from an early age. He had always tried to behave and please Auntie Qiao. How cunning!
Gao Feng refused to take Zhu Yu’s bait. “You’re just jealous that Auntie Qiao likes me better!” It was because Zhu Yu had not been able to win Auntie Qiao’s favor when he was younger that he was always finding an excuse to fight with Gao Feng and to use his strength to take Gao Feng down. Was Zhu Yu a fool? Nonsense! Zhu Yu was just playing dumb to take advantage of him!
Every time they fought, he would always lose. Moreover, all the adults always thought that Zhu Yu had been bullied first and had only tried to defend himself by fighting back. At least nine times out of ten, the adults would always feel that Gao Feng had been the one to start the fight with Zhu Yu.
Gao Feng had been maligned by Zhu Yu while growing up. Gao Feng and Zhu Yu’s relationship was truly the epitome of loving and killing each other simultaneously.
“Can’t compete with you?” Zhu Yu laughed. “I think you’ve got it wrong. I guess it’s because you won’t be Auntie Qiao’s favorite if you don’t use some underhanded methods.” When they were younger, Gao Feng had already been annoying. Now that he was older, he had become even more irksome.
“All right, you guys are not three-year-old children anymore. Look at where we are, will you? Can you stop embarrassing me?” Tian Haoran quickly interrupted the childish fight between the pair, lest they be seen as laughingstocks. Tian Haoran did not care how they settled it in private, no matter how childish it might be.
But they were still outside, so they had to pay attention to their behaviors.
If that beauty had tried to goad them into action earlier, Zhu Yu and Gao Feng foolishly fighting with each other would only make the beauty feel thankful that she had changed her target.
Tian Haoran quickly left with Zhu Yu and Gao Feng before they embarrassed themselves.
Seeing that the three of them were not taking her bait and were not as impulsive and temperamental as other young people, the beauty was upset. “Handsome, you’ve drunk quite a lot of alcohol, but the night’s still young. Didn’t you say that you have a car? How about bringing us for a joyride?”
She might have been wrong. These three men looked rather young and fresh. Perhaps, she had made a wrong judgment. They were not rich, handsome, and tall. Maybe they were just tall and handsome, but not rich.
“All right.” The other party showed off the car key to his Mercedes-Benz. At that, the smile on the beauty’s face relaxed. “Let’s hurry up and get some fresh air.”
They had not sat down and chatted for long before they finished their alcohol and left to take a spin. At the door, that beauty specially kept her eyes on the parking lot. She had calculated the time. If those three young men had a car, they would definitely not have left. But if she had left and did not see any sign of those three handsome men, that could only mean that those three handsome men were broke. No wonder they had refused to sit with them and treat them to drinks. Their pockets were cleaner than their faces, after all.
People were often like that. It might not be good to get something, but one would miss it like crazy if they did not get it. Sigh. In the end, that beauty really saw it.
Initially, the beauty had not been paying attention. When she saw the brand new Jaguar drive past her, she was still grumbling in her heart that this was truly the capital, where branded cars were everywhere. A Jaguar was so common. It was not until the Jaguar parked not far away from her and she saw Zhu Yu and Gao Feng walking toward the Jaguar and getting in the car that the beauty was truly dumbfounded. The man sitting in the driver’s seat was the one who had treated her to a drink but had rejected her!
She opened the door and widened her eyes to observe the scene carefully. It was really Tian Haoran!
When the handsome man who had asked the beauty out arrived and saw her eyeing on the Jaguar, he chuckled. “Kids nowadays are really something. I think those three boys haven’t even graduated from university. It’s so late at night but they even dare to drive their family’s car out! I’m a down-to-earth person. This car may not be the best, but it’s still all right. At the very least, I bought it with my own money.”
The man had wanted to show off his ability to make money and that he did not rely on his parents. He was different from those men who only knew how to ask their parents for money. Putting one-night stands aside, women should marry men like him.
Unfortunately, the beauty did not buy that. What was wrong with asking their parents for money? If their parents did not have the ability, would they buy a brand new Jaguar for their son to drive at whim? She had never thought of enduring hardships with a man. She liked rich second-generation or third-generation heirs because she would be able to lead a comfortable life. What was wrong with that?
If she had known that the three handsome men drove a Jaguar, she would never have been so stupid as to give up the tall, handsome, and rich guys for a salaried worker who was so boastful! All of a sudden, that beauty lost all desire to go for a spin or to have a one-night stand. She came to the sudden realization that she had just brushed shoulders with three gold mines, but they had just gotten further and further from her until they were nowhere to be seen. In an instant, her heart felt tremendously cold.
