Chapter 376: Envy! A Ferrari worth 6 million!
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Feier almost burst into laughter but gently nudged Luofeng with her elbow, signaling him to keep watching the drama unfold.
Luofeng picked up on the hint. "Since Brother Jin has such great connections, I’ll have to trouble you then!"
"I’m really so envious of Brother Jin. With an annual salary of five or six hundred thousand, and even a year-end bonus, thinking about it just feels like happiness! It’s truly the peak of life!" Luofeng said deliberately. "Actually, our school is quite tragic. If we don’t come across some special opportunity, it’s going to be hard for us to even find a job with a monthly salary of five thousand after we graduate!"
Luofeng continued to lament, as if he genuinely sighed over a bleak future.
Shangguan Feier had already bowed her head; it seemed she couldn’t control her expressions.
This Luofeng was really too hilarious.
Shangguan Shui’er surprisingly cooperated, "It’s okay, Luofeng, we’ll work hard together in the future!"
Damn it!
Ji Shunjin felt a sudden urge to curse. Why? He was bitter! A beauty like Shangguan Shui’er actually willing to work hard with Luofeng? Please, if she just nodded, she could easily find a rich second generation; why bother working hard with a loser? With her looks, she could just go into business; five thousand for a night would be easy, meaning a monthly income of one hundred and fifty thousand!
Ji Shunjin couldn’t help but think that after many years of hard work, he had finally reached his current level. Although he found a girlfriend like Liu Ying, he wasn’t satisfied deep down. All men are like that, always thinking the grass is greener on the other hill. And he knew that Liu Ying was just second-hand goods. So, seeing Luofeng with someone like Shangguan Shui’er, he was truly envious. A black Mercedes Benz, an annual income of several hundred thousand, a company position? Had he made such an awesome display with all that? And what about these young people? Casually being awesome with their affection? Who was really being shown up?
Upon hearing Shangguan Shui’er’s remarks, Liu Ying started to retort, "Shui Er, as your older sister, I must remind you, a girl’s most beautiful years of youth last only so long. How much of your youth are you willing to waste with him?"
As she spoke, she looked at Luofeng. "Student Luo Feng, do you know the current housing prices in Shu City?"
Luofeng replied, "It’s over ten thousand in the old city district, and in the new city district, it has already reached over thirty thousand! Those are roughly the figures."
Luofeng actually knew this. After all, he had bought that two-story building near Nanfeng Road. He had comprehensively researched it.
Liu Ying was suddenly at a loss for words. Was she really asking about the housing prices in Shu City? Or was she asking whether he could afford it? Liu Ying suddenly felt that this Luofeng was toxic, wasn’t he?
Shangguan Shui’er agreed, "Yes, the housing prices in Shu City are pretty much like that."
Liu Ying took a deep breath; she was feeling somewhat bruised internally.
"Student Luo, where are you from?" Liu Ying asked.
"From around Shanghai," Luofeng said.
"Oh?" Liu Ying seemed a little surprised. "Then what do your parents do?"
Luofeng was speechless; Liu Ying was prying a bit too much.
But Shangguan Feier continued to signal Luofeng to keep watching and not expose his identity. If not for their parents being good friends, they wouldn’t bother with Liu Ying. If Luofeng hadn’t saved the day, would they have agreed to go shopping with Liu Ying? They definitely wouldn’t have come. She probably likes to show off because she’s not as pretty as the two of us, right? That must be her mindset.
Luofeng glanced at Shangguan Feier and went along, "My dad works at a construction site, and my mom is an accountant!"
After all, his parents... one indeed works at a construction site, and the other is an accountant. No problem there, right?
"Shanghai local?" Liu Ying continued to inquire.
"Not exactly, my family was originally from Shuangqing," Luofeng responded.
But that was a long time ago. Shanghai is still okay; in Shencheng, pretty much everyone is from out of town.
After listening, Liu Ying involuntarily sneered, about to say something, but she was interrupted by Ji Shunjin.
Ji Shunjin was quite emotionally intelligent. He had already gathered enough information.
Luofeng was just an ordinary person. He started planning a new scheme in his heart. Ji Shunjin intended to give Luofeng a harsh lesson about the real world.
"Okay, Liu Ying, stop talking, we came out to shop today!" Ji Shunjin said. "Sorry about that, Student Luo Feng, Liu Ying is just worried about her cousin. Caring too much can cause chaos; she didn’t mean to offend you!"
Fine. So it’s come to this? And she didn’t mean to offend? Luofeng silently messaged Chen Ping on WeChat; he wasn’t targeting Ji Shunjin either, of course.
"Liu Ying, didn’t you say last time that you liked the new underarm bag from Gucci? Let’s go buy it for you today!" Ji Shunjin offered.
"Thank you, Brother Jin!" Liu Ying immediately lit up with joy.
Luofeng deciphered their strategy in a second. The sisters saw through the ruse too. They want to buy a Gucci bag? Just now Liu Ying was still using her yin and yang tone to imply Luofeng’s clothes were fake, and now they’re going to buy a bag—isn’t this a public humiliation for Luofeng? This man, indeed an old hand from the corporate world, was truly sly and mean.
The sisters held onto Luofeng’s arms, both smiling as they looked at him.
A moment later, the Mercedes Benz arrived at the underground parking lot of Guojin Center.
Ji Shunjin led the way confidently.
"The underground garage here at Guojin Center is so unfriendly. If you’re not familiar with it, you can easily get lost in the parking garage and end up at the office block elevator!"
That comment implied he often came to Guojin Center for shopping.
As the elevator doors opened, Shangguan Feier suddenly pointed in one direction, "Sister, look!"
Shangguan Shui’er looked over. Everyone else looked over as well.
It turned out to be a parking spot. And on that spot, there stood a Ferrari 488 and a Porsche 911.
Of course, the license plates both had the letters LF on them: one was 488LF, and the other was LF888!
Ji Shunjin saw the two supercars and noticed the license plates. But he never associated them with Luofeng. After all, isn’t he just a loser? Right? A license plate like LF8888, for example, is an abbreviation for ’Get Rich.’ To want such a license plate? How could that be possible for him? And if Luofeng had a sports car, why wouldn’t he drive it?
Psychology has a conclusion: what kind of person you are, you tend to assume others think the same way you do. If Ji Shunjin had a sports car, he would definitely show it off. Even if the 911’s rear seat is extremely cramped, he believes a Porsche is definitely more flashy than a Mercedes Benz.
