Rebirth from the Ashes - Chapter 320
Chapter 320: Contract Worker
“What do you guys mean by that? How are you so sure that it’s fake? I’m warning you guys, don’t spout nonsense!” Shen Feng was anxious and craned his neck in annoyance and anger.
‘I wonder if my acting skills are good enough…’ Shen Feng thought.
“Feng, just admit it’s a fake. Next time when you make money, then you can give your girlfriend the real one.”
“Yeah, we’re all students, so we won’t laugh at you. Who here isn’t strapped for cash once in a while? If you don’t have money, just buy something cheaper, why make it difficult for yourself?”
“We’re all men, so we understand. We all like to brag. Your girlfriend is so understanding and loves you, so she certainly won’t get mad at you.”
The group saw that Shen Feng was annoyed and knew that they had poked his soft spot. They were sure that this pendant was fake and began to laugh arrogantly. They looked at Shen Xi and found that she was very calm even after knowing that her boyfriend had given her a piece of fake jewelry. She must be feigning her calmness.
He Lu looked at Shen Xi smugly. ‘What’s the use of being pretty? She’s still not capable and found herself a fraud with no ability or money.’
This girl was also really thick-skinned. If it was any other sensitive girl with a bit of self-awareness, she would have certainly thrown the fake pendant to Shen Feng’s face, slapped him on the spot, and broken up with him before walking away.
“What if this necklace is real?” Shen Xi’s eyes were cold and had such a strong aura. Wherever her gaze went, there was instant silence.
Boy A was shocked by her aura for a moment and laughed out loud. “Then, what do you want?”
This woman was really interesting. They knew it was fake, but she was still so insistent.
“That Ferrari at the entrance is pretty nice,” Shen Xi raised an eyebrow and smiled. “Who does it belong to?”
Xia Ze stood up with a smug smile, “It’s mine.”
He got this new Ferrari a year ago and was the second owner of this model in the whole city. It was a representation of his status and embodiment of nobility.
Shen Xi looked at him. “Dare to make a bet with me?”
She knew that this person in front of her was the mastermind behind this “reunion”. Everyone else was only trying to suck up to him and his girlfriend, so they made fun of Shen Feng to gain favor with him.
Xia Ze looked at her funnily, “What do you want to bet?”
Shen Xi said, “Let’s bet on your Ferrari. If my necklace is real, that Ferrari will be mine.”
Xia Ze looked at the woman in front of him and thought that she was naive and laughable. She was such a bimbo. “What if it’s fake? What can you give me?”
He actually wanted to say, “If it’s fake, you’re mine.” However, because his girlfriend was still around and to maintain his image, he dared not speak his mind.
This woman’s looks were superb. Compared to her, He Lu was nothing. If he could get such a woman as his girlfriend, he would be envied by everyone when he brought her out with him.
If he trained her well, he could also use her beauty in exchange for other benefits. No man was able to resist the temptation of such a seductress.
“Him,” Shen Xi did not hesitate to sell out Shen Feng. “I heard that you own a company. He’s a senior at the University of China. He’s a first-class scholar every year, and one of the top students in the country. He’s the President of the Student Council and even did a project last year with his tutor that had two patents, earning him half a million yuan. You can get him as your contract worker. Is twenty years enough?”
Shen Feng wanted to cry and was speechless. ‘This brat! Does she have to push me off the ledge like that?! Contract work for Xia Ze? You might as well kill me…’
Xia Ze was very satisfied with this proposal. Shen Feng had always been better than him, which was why he was so resentful. If Shen Feng could be his slave for twenty years and get pressured by him, how great was that?
This woman was beautiful, but there was clearly something wrong with her brain. Without needing to think about it, they knew it was impossible. If Shen Feng had 58 million yuan to buy jewelry for his girlfriend, then Xia Ze would even dare to eat shit.
Having Shen Feng as a contract worker was too enticing of a deal to refuse. Xia Ze looked at Shen Xi and nodded. “I agree, but does Shen Feng agree to this?”
Shen Feng thought, ‘Hell to the f*cking no!’
However, since his sister wanted to play, Shen Feng naturally had to cooperate with her act. He gritted his teeth and said with a red face, “I…”
Shen Xi laughed and forced him. “Shen Feng, when you gave me this necklace, you swore that it was real!”
When Xia Ze saw this, he was more certain that Shen Feng gave his girlfriend fake jewelry and that his girlfriend was trying to take revenge. After this, she would certainly dump him. Xia Ze was smug and added fuel to the fire. He taunted Shen Feng. “Buddy, I won’t put you in a difficult position. If you’re a man, just admit that it’s fake. Don’t be a wimp!”
Shen Feng’s eyes wavered and looked weak as if his back was forced to the wall. He could only stubbornly shout, “I’m not scared! Let’s bet on it then! It’s as real as it can be!”
Xia Ze looked at Shen Feng like he was a joke and said, “Sure, it’s probably as fake as it can get.”
Although Shen Feng did not have a great family background, he was arrogant and liked to be the best. As long as he was provoked, he would certainly fall into the trap. Seeing Shen Feng’s anxious and stubborn behavior, Xia Ze was delighted.
The rest of the group looked at Shen Feng with sympathy and waited to see him make a fool of himself. No one forced Shen Feng to take the bet, but Shen Feng was insistent and unwilling to admit his fault, so he was just asking for it if he lost.
Shen Feng’s girlfriend was not a simple woman. She must have known that Shen Feng gave her a counterfeit and deliberately did this to retaliate against him. This way of revenge asking Shen Feng to be a contract worker for the Xia family for twenty years was so ruthless and heartless.
Everyone knew that Xia Ze and Shen Feng had been enemies since high school. The two were deadly rivals, so if Shen Feng were to work for Xia Ze, it would certainly be more painful than death.
“My uncle owns a jewelry store.” He Lu smiled and proposed, “Why don’t we go to his jewelry store to identify whether it’s real or fake?”
The group then walked out of the restaurant.
When Xia Ze pulled open the door of his Ferrari, he looked at Shen Xi with a deep gaze and smiled at her.
Shen Xi felt like she was about to puke. ‘This ugly troll dares to hit on me?!’
Shen Feng glared at Xia Ze coldly and scornfully looked at He Lu. He whistled and mocked her. “He Lu, you’d better control your man’s eyes!”
