Chapter 28 (1/2)
“Sister Yun, this is a list of items that Zhenzhen destroyed. Please take care of it.”
Gao Xuan still had some morals. He didn’t list the overnight stay in the price list.
On the virtual screen, Sister Yun had a look of shock on her face. As a professional bodyguard, her face was usually expressionless. That is… unless she was unable to contain her emotions.
Wei Zhenzhen had stayed at Gao Xuan’s house for a night but had run out of the apartment crying on the afternoon of the second day.
Upon receiving this news, Sister Yun was shocked and also furious.
Gao Xuan was merely a poor lad from the mountains with nothing to his name. All he had was an attractive face.
Picking up a noble, influential beauty like Wei Zhenzhen was like picking up a fortune that would’ve taken him eight lifetimes to amass.
To think that he would voluntarily dump Wei Zhenzhen. What gall!
More detestably, Gao Xuan had even given her a list of the prices of the items that Wei Zehnzhen had destroyed and wanted her to pay him back.
Sister Yun stared at Gao Xuan, her expression dark, and said nothing.
On the screen, Gao Xuan seemed to be unaffected. He smiled and said, “Sister Yun, you have my contact information. You can transfer the money over to me at your convenience.”
“I underestimated you.” Sister Yun realized that her threat had been ineffective and felt that it was due to Gao Xuan’s inability to see because of his eye disease. She could only say in a gruff tone, “Do you know what you’re doing exactly?”
“Sister Yun, your tone isn’t so nice.” Gao Xuan said, confused, “Why, Sister Yun, do you mean that she shouldn’t have to pay for the things she destroyed?”
He said, as if he were a little puzzled, “That seems unreasonable. Furthermore, the Yuanlong Company should be able to make money like that. If they can’t, then forget about it.
Gao Xuan acted as if he had the moral high ground. “After all, Zhenzhen and I are friends.”
Sister Yun only realized now how overbearing Gao Xuan was when he spoke. Her expression turned cold as she said, “I’ll check over it.”
She then ended their call and contacted Wei Yue. “Boss, the young mistress destroyed a few things in Gao Xuan’s house. Gao Xuan wants us to pay for them. What should we do?”
A few tens of thousands of Credit Points wasn’t a large sum. Sister Yun could foot the bill for Wei Zhenzhen.
The real problem lay in Gao Xuan’s attitude. It greatly irritated Sister Yun. That poor lad didn’t know his place.
Wei Yue looked at the list of prices and laughed. “This lad is quite interesting. Give him the money. Give him a little more than what he asked for.”
Sister Yun hesitated before saying, “We’re just going to let it go? Just like that?”
The Yuanlong Company was a massive conglomerate. As the leader of the company, Wei Yue was known for being forceful despite her beauty.
From what Sister Yun knew about her, Wei Yun wouldn’t go easy on a gigolo like Gao Xuan.
Wei Yue raised her eyebrows. “Gao Xuan saved Zhenzhen and Xu Yin. The problem between Gao Xuan and Zhenzhen isn’t exactly a problem. Zhenzhen should have suffered a blow from society a long time ago to make her understand reason. We have to thank Gao Xuan for that.”
She then said, a little amused, “He’s such a direct and honest scumbag. It’s quite cute. Give him ten thousand more as a reward for accompanying Zhenzhen through the night.”
Wei Yue smiled even more happily when she said this.
Sister Yun didn’t know where the humor in the matter lay. However, since the boss had ordered this, she had to carry it out exactly.
Two minutes later, Gao Xuan received a transfer: 131245 Credit Points.
Out of that sum, 10000 Credit Points had been specially marked “Overnight Fee.”
Gao Xuan looked at the bill and was dumbfounded for a moment. He couldn’t help but say to Yun Qingshang, “I received an overnight fee of 10000 Credit Points. Why am I always humiliated like this?”
Yun Qingshang, who was silently lying on the surface of the pool, asked a few moments later, “What’s the problem?”
“Am I only worth 10000 Credit Points!?”
Gao Xuan was very upset. “With my appearance, powerful hips, and technique, I’m worth more than 10000 Credit Points!”
Yun Qingshang closed her eyes. She didn’t want to speak to Gao Xuan anymore.
Gao Xuan started to become boastful. “See, it’s easy to earn money. I’ll go out and bed a few more rich ladies. Then we won’t have to go out and kill to earn money anymore.”
Gao Xuan felt a little strange saying that. He hadn’t been this greedy in the past.
Had the negative effects of the Heavenly Dragon Eye, “Greed,” started to affect him?
The Heavenly Dragon Eye was extremely powerful, but it had several negative effects. Furthermore, all of the effects were rather strange.
The negative effect “Greed” caused a person to become exceptionally greedy. The person would also take an exceptional liking to precious objects like gold and jewelry…
Gao Xuan sighed internally. A noble, carefree man like him shouldn’t be reduced to this…
Fortunately, many of the side effects could be controlled. They weren’t as oppressive as the negative effects of the God Slaying Sword.
Gao Xuan tapped open a webpage and started searching for information about the Yuanlong Company.
“I find Wei Zhenzhen’s mother also very good-looking. She’s mature, and generous too…”
While speaking, Gao Xuan suddenly sensed that something was off. He waved his shirt and blocked all of the water that Yun Qingshang had shot at him.
