What the hell?

She was so beautiful, yet she turned out to be a gold digger?

Well, maybe she just wanted to know more about his situation.Full novel: Marvel Universe: I Pick Up Attributes — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

Zhang Xi took a deep breath and continued, “I don’t own a house. I’m renting one at the moment. I don’t have a car either, because my work doesn’t require one. But I started a company shortly after graduating, and I just sold it a few days ago for two hundred thousand yuan. I haven’t decided what I’m going to do next, but I think I’ll be fine.”

Obviously, with his superpowers, he could probably become a billionaire even if all he did was move bricks for a living.

Zhang Xi thought his circumstances weren’t too bad.

At the very least, he figured his potential was pretty good.

However, after hearing what he said, Pan Yun’s lips practically curled all the way up to her ears.

“What the hell? I actually wasted my time on a poor loser like you?” Pan Yun sneered without the slightest courtesy.

“You only have two hundred thousand yuan in savings? That’s not even enough for me to spend in half a year. What kind of joke is this?”

Zhang Xi scratched his head.

For someone his age, wasn’t that actually a decent amount of money if he’d managed to earn it entirely on his own without relying on his parents?

“Wait, hold on. Let me ask you something. You spend tens of thousands every month. How exactly do you make that kind of money?”

At those words, an awkward look flashed across Pan Yun’s face.

But she quickly recovered.

“What does that have to do with you? Let me tell you something. Don’t think a toad like you can marry a swan. With circumstances like yours, you’re nowhere near good enough for me!”

For some reason, Pan Yun seemed to have completely opened the floodgates, talking nonstop.

Zhang Xi was furious.

If she wasn’t interested, fine.

They could simply part ways amicably.

But why did she have to keep going on and on?

Was she deliberately humiliating him?

He was the son of Odin, for crying out loud.

Was she really in a position to humiliate him?

Still, she was a woman.

No matter how little of a gentleman Zhang Xi might be, he had no intention of hitting a woman.

He suppressed his anger and decided that when he got home, he’d complain to his mother and tell her to find someone more reliable next time instead of setting him up with someone like this.

Zhang Xi could tolerate it, but someone else couldn’t.

Luo Ruomeng and Chen Xueyu walked out of their private room.

They hadn’t been in much of a mood to begin with, and after running into a sleazy drunk, their mood had only gotten worse.

The two were just about to leave when they suddenly witnessed the scene.

Perhaps Pan Yun was too worked up to control her volume.

Practically the entire bar could hear her.

In her tirade, she had completely torn Zhang Xi apart.

Zhang Xi said nothing, but faint flashes of lightning flickered across his fingertips, proving just how angry he was.

“Hey, isn’t that woman asking to get herself killed?” Luo Ruomeng was immediately annoyed.

Naturally, she couldn’t stand listening to someone insult him like that.

Chen Xueyu snorted.

“Just a gold digger. I’ve seen countless women like her at my big brother’s place. Girls like this are all kept by wealthy men.”

Luo Ruomeng nodded.

“Then should we teach her a lesson?”

“Sounds good,” Chen Xueyu replied.

“He just helped us out so much. We should show him some appreciation, right? But how should we do it?”

“Heh. That’s easy.”

Luo Ruomeng smiled faintly and leaned over to whisper a few words into her ear.

Zhang Xi really couldn’t take it anymore.

He stood up, preparing to leave.

Just then, Luo Ruomeng and Chen Xueyu walked over.

Zhang Xi’s face immediately turned red.

What the heck?

He had his pride too.

This whole situation was incredibly embarrassing, and for a moment, he didn’t know what to say.

Luo Ruomeng walked over, put an arm around Zhang Xi’s shoulder, and said in an intimate tone, “Oh, honey, why don’t you come over to my place tonight? I just got a new bed. It’s really comfortable.”

Zhang Xi hadn’t even figured out what was happening when Chen Xueyu also wrapped her arm around his and pulled a car key from her bosom.

In a coquettish voice, she said, “Honey, didn’t you say you were coming to my place? You even left your car keys here.”

The sudden change left everyone completely dumbfounded.

Especially Pan Yun.

Her eyes were immediately drawn to the car key in Chen Xueyu’s hand.

The golden Lamborghini was impossible to miss.

A Lamborghini—the legendary kind of car that you either had from birth or could spend your entire life dreaming about.

Could it be…

Was Zhang Xi testing her?

Zhang Xi himself had no idea what was going on.

He glanced at Luo Ruomeng, who winked at him.

He immediately understood.

So they were trying to repay him.

He wasn’t someone who liked showing off, but he absolutely couldn’t stand being humiliated.

Since things had come to this, he might as well thoroughly put this gold digger in her place.

“Heh.”

Zhang Xi chuckled softly and looked at Pan Yun with an arrogant expression. You are reading on g.com, the official source.

“I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but all I got in return was ridicule. Forget it. I’m done pretending. I’m a billionaire—there, I’ve come clean!”

“These two are both my girlfriends. Having one more doesn’t matter, and having one less doesn’t matter either. So you can leave.”

With that, he even made a polite gesture inviting her to go.

Pan Yun’s hands trembled violently.

If she could, she really wanted to slap herself twice.

This was a wealthy man!

She had actually failed to recognize such a valuable catch and had just thrown him away.

“Hehe… Zhang Xi.”

Pan Yun forced a smile.

“Actually, I knew your circumstances were pretty good from the beginning. But since you wouldn’t be honest with me, I had no choice but to force you to come clean. Everything that happened just now was actually a misunderstanding. I was only pretending too.”

“Come on, I’m hungry. Let’s eat.”

Her expression changed faster than the pages of a book.

Sure enough, she really was an exceptional scumbag.

Luo Ruomeng puffed out her cheeks.

“Honey, didn’t you say you only loved me? Besides, would you really be interested in someone like her?”

“Exactly. You can find dozens of women like that for three hundred yuan. Your taste is terrible!” Chen Xueyu chimed in.

The two women appeared to be bickering with each other, but every word was actually a sarcastic jab at Pan Yun.

Pan Yun was indeed quite beautiful, but beauty was relative.

Whether it was Luo Ruomeng or Chen Xueyu, both were stunning beauties in their own right.

And when it came to their overall presence and temperament, they completely outclassed Pan Yun.

Pan Yun couldn’t be bothered to listen to them.

She looked at Zhang Xi pitifully, desperately hoping for one final chance.

Since they’d already started acting, Zhang Xi decided to play along all the way.

He laughed heartily, naturally wrapping an arm around each woman’s shoulder.

“Alright, my two beauties. We’ve wasted enough time. Let’s go.”

Feeling Zhang Xi’s solid muscles beneath their hands, both women couldn’t help blushing.

Being beside Zhang Xi gave them a sense of security they’d never experienced before.

For a moment, both of them even felt tempted to turn this fake act into something real.

Zhang Xi, however, failed to notice any of this.

Under the envious gazes of everyone around them, he walked out of LOVE Bar with the two beautiful women in his arms.

As for Pan Yun, she had become exactly what she herself had called him—a toad.

After leaving the bar, the three arrived at the parking lot.

Zhang Xi behaved properly.

The moment they left the bar, he lowered his arms.

Looking at the two women sincerely, he said,

“Thank you.”
