385 Zhuang Bifan; The Fiancé (1/2)
*Vroom*
The golden Ferrari streaked towards Chen Xiaobei at an incredible speed, its engine roaring like a ferocious beast.
It would crash into him if he did not move.
”Xiaobei! Is that our enemy?” Xiangyu frowned, his combat aura beginning to envelop his body. However, Chen Xiaobei did not say a word, and merely stood his ground and glared at the approaching vehicle calmly.
”Xiaobei! Dodge! Now!” Lan Mengchen screamed.
”Hehe! I knew it. To think that you acted like I didn't matter anymore! Was it difficult for you be cold towards me?” Chen Xiaobei smiled. ”Anyway, don't worry. That piece of metal can't hurt me!”
*Vrooom*
*Screech*
The Ferrari driver managed to pull a perfect drift just slightly ahead of Chen Xiaobei and came to a perfect full stop in front of Lan Mengchen, leaving both of them unhurt
”Cocky!”
Through it all Chen Xiaobei stayed calm, never budging an inch. Compared to him, that driver was started with a bang and ended with a whimper. All he did was show off his drifting skills – he never had the gall to run Chen Xiaobei down with his car.
A man who appeared to be in his mid-twenties alighted from the sports car. ”Mengchen! Here I am!” he shouted.
He had a pair of narrow eyes, while his nose resembled the beak of an eagle and his cheekbones protruded obnoxiously. His presence exuded arrogance. The man was dressed in a floral buttoned shirt, with the first two buttons left undone deliberately.
In a nutshell, he was a playboy. A scumbag, to be precise.
The two Hummers that followed caught up, and four bodyguards in black outfits jumped off to welcome Lan.
”Mengchen! I told you not to bring so many things when you come to Dragon City,” the playboy said haughtily. ”You could buy everything you need here because that I'm filthy rich!”
”There are things money can't buy!” Lan Mengchen replied coldly – her soulful and dreamy eyes reflecting deeply-entrenched disgust whenever she looked at him.
”Can't buy? There is nothing that I, Zhuang Bifan can't buy in this world! Just name anything you want; I'm rich enough to buy you a star!” He spoke as if he printed money.
”What I'm trying to say, there are things that I hold dear that you can't buy with money. And I understand that you are very, very rich.” Lan Mengchen was becoming even more disgusted, although she tried her best to hide it.
”That's what I was trying to say! There's nothing I can't buy in this world! Haha!” Zhuang Bifan laughed with incredible self-importance.
”Yes. There's nothing…” Lan Mengchen sighed.
”I, too, believe that there are many things you can't buy with money in this world! For example, time, wisdom, truth… And love!” Chen Xiaobei joined in calmly as he fixed his eyes on Lan Mengchen.
”Huh? Who the hell are you? How dare you speak in my presence?” Zhuang Bifan glared at him angrily.
”He's my friend! A normal friend!” Lan Mengchen quickly replied, clearly unwilling to have Chen Xiaobei get into conflict with Zhuang Bifan. She knew very well that the latter was basically an overlord of Green Vine City.
