296: Chapter 296: About What Just Happened
Tan Lin’s face instantly turned cold as she glared at Shen Lexuan with resentnt.
“I had considered introducing you to so business contacts because of your modest family circumstances, but I’ve changed my mind now.
You can just carry your out-of-season bag and live your poor life with your loser boyfriend!”
“I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you,” Shen Lexuan retorted without missing a beat.
“Although I’ve not been working long, I already have both a car and a house.”
Faced with this old grievance from Tan Lin, Shen Lexuan wasn’t about to be outdone and, pulling Lin Fei into the fray, she shot back at Tan Lin.
“Also, let
make it clear to you, the ‘loser’ you just ntioned was just promoted a few days ago by our hotel’s general manager himself.
Our combined inco now isn’t enough to make
live a life of poverty—I couldn’t even if I tried.”
Shen Lexuan deliberately made the last few words sound soft and tender, leaving Tan Lin speechless and choking back her anger.
Just then, Lin Fei arrived, carrying three brand-new bags in colors identical to the one Tan Lin was holding, and strides boldly over.
As he ca closer, Lin Fei imdiately made Shen Lexuan burst into laughter with his next words.
“Xuanxuan, your classmate isn’t being honest.
This bag only costs twenty thousand each.
She said it was over thirty thousand.
If it weren’t for the salesperson reassuring
multiple tis during the checkout, I almost thought I’d bought a fake.”
“Pfft—”
Catching a glimpse of Tan Lin’s face turning beet red (and her undeniable embarrassnt), Shen Lexuan laughed so hard she leaned on Lin Fei’s shoulder.
“I was wondering where you had gone, haha—I can’t take it anymore, let
laugh for a mont…”
“Enough already, she’s still our classmate.
You’re having so much fun laughing, where do you put her face?”
Before Tan Lin could muster a look of gratitude, Lin Fei promptly added, “Hold up, I can hardly hold it in myself, let
laugh for a bit.”
“…”
Having her boast exposed right to her face (mainly dazzled by the three bags Lin Fei had purchased), Tan Lin’s face alternated between pale and flushed for a while, not knowing how to counter Shen Lexuan and Lin Fei’s “mockery.” Not wanting to embarrass herself any longer, she simply turned and walked away.
“I specifically bought one for you, in the sa color as your classmate’s.
Please put it on and let
see it.”
While Tan Lin hadn’t walked far, Lin Fei, after Shen Lexuan took the bag and loud enough for note, delivers the final blow.
“Not bad, not bad.
Your classmate might be small, but she has a good eye for bags.”
Stumbling slightly but managing to steady herself, Tan Lin’s half-body trembled slightly with anger.
Facing away from Lin Fei and Shen Lexuan, Tan Lin’s hands clenched and unclenched, lifting and dropping, doing this three tis before ultimately walking away in silence, without turning back.
“Has she gone far?
She’s gone away, hasn’t she?”
Tiptoeing and repeatedly confirming with Lin Fei that Tan Lin had left, Shen Lexuan finally let out a long sigh of relief.
She then touched the new bag that Lin Fei had given her, bidding farewell sowhat reluctantly.
“I absolutely adore you, but I’ve almost spent all my money this month.
I really can’t take you ho.
However, rest assured, with the contribution you’ve made for
today, I’ll definitely co to buy you as soon as I get my paycheck next month!”
After saying this, Shen Lexuan, still reluctant, caressed the other two new bags that Lin Fei was holding.
“And you two as well, I will do my best to bring you ho within half a year.”
