Chapter 92: Chapter 92: You’re a Bricklayer, Right?"I’m Yiran’s boyfriend, Shen Hao, the Xinghui Real Estate in the development zone is owned by my family! I wonder what high position this brother holds and what status does his family have?" He reached out his hand, a smile on his face, but the meaning behind his words was obviously malicious. Knowing full well that Ye Xuan didn’t have any status, he still mentioned his own background first, then asked the latter about his origins, clearly intending to show off in front of everyone. Especially, trampling Ye Xuan in front of Lu Miaochan, he hoped to make this beautiful "Lu university’s flower", kick this poor asshole to the curb and throw herself into his arms! After saying this, Shen Hao was already expecting Ye Xuan to lose face, but Ye Xuan’s reaction was unexpected. Ye Xuan had both hands in his pockets, didn’t even glance at him, and said lazily, "I’m a bit of a clean freak, I don’t like shaking hands with men." For someone who wants to step on others for no reason, why should he be given any face? The best way is to prevent him from showing off! Ye Xuan’s indifferent attitude surprised Lou Yiran and the two other girls nearby. They certainly did not expect a poor guard to have such a personality, completely ignoring Shen Hao, the property mogul! Seeing this, Chang Jing felt a bit of schadenfreude. Shen Hao was not someone to be trifled with; having offended him, Ye Xuan was guaranteed to get a rough time tonight. "Damn! Quite a character," Shen Hao murmured, a little stunned, as he had never encountered such a scenario; he glanced around, saw many people watching, and felt embarrassed as he withdrew his hand. Cursing internally, fuck, this poor asshole is not playing by the script! Day’s fucking ruined. Glancing at Lu Miaochan, seeing a smile on her face that appeared mocking, made Shen Hao feel an even greater loss of face. Staring hatefully at Ye Xuan, he thought it was a waste for this guy to get with a beauty like Lu Miaochan – a fresh flower stuck in cow dung, damn waste! Shen Hao was extremely annoyed, looking at Ye Xuan’s cheap attire and indifferent demeanour, anger bubbled inside him. Damn it, what’s a poor guard acting all high and mighty for! "Brother Ye, you used to work on construction sites carrying bricks, right?" Shen Hao looked at Ye Xuan with disdain, a smile on his face as he spoke. Huh? His words instantly caught the attention of the other girls. Lu Miaochan frowned upon hearing this, while Lou Yiran and the other girls curiously asked, "Shen Hao, why would you say that?" With everyone’s eyes on him, Shen Hao regained his smug look and pointed to Ye Xuan’s hands, full of mockery: "Our Miss Lu’s boyfriend here has calluses all over his hands, obviously from working on construction sites! No different from those brick-carrying migrant workers – Brother Ye, I can tell by your clothes your life isn’t affluent; this must be your first time at Starbucks, right?" As he spoke, he glanced at Ye Xuan with a hint of scorn, "Brother Ye, don’t be polite, today is Yiran’s birthday, you can have any coffee here! Normally, you wouldn’t get to enjoy such expensive coffee! Don’t worry, we won’t look down on you!" Hearing his words, the other guys and girls looked at Ye Xuan with surprise. "Miaochan, so your boyfriend also moonlights as a brick-carrier in his spare time, he really works hard!" Lou Yiran and the girls praised him, but their tone was clearly mocking and disdainful! Xu Meng and Li Tingting glanced at Ye Xuan, and then at the two young men pursuing them. These two had been chasing after them, and their families were quite well-off. But Xu Meng and Li Tingting were from rich backgrounds and held themselves in high regard! In their eyes, finding a boyfriend meant finding a rich young master like Shen Hao, or if not a rich heir, then at least a wealthy man. But now, compared to Ye Xuan, Jiang Chao and Wang Kun, who weren’t highly regarded before, suddenly seemed much more appealing to them! At least, they were better than a brick-carrier like Ye Xuan. "Classmate Ye, how much do you make a month on the construction site? Is it eight hundred, or a thousand?" "Yeah, yeah! I’ve heard that carrying bricks is really hard work, no wonder you didn’t want to shake hands with Mr. Shen!" "Miaochan, your boyfriend really has it tough! He even carries bricks to support you, drink more coffee here, it’s worth half a month’s salary for you!" The group of girls chattered away, their voices dripping with scorn. Jiang Chao and Wang Kun also had a playfully mocking look on their faces, precisely because Ye Xuan’s presence highlighted their own status and position. Hearing the whispers around him, Shen Hao’s mouth curved up with a hint of amusement and mockery. Who else could take his face but Ye Xuan just now? In fact, he was already waiting for Lu Miaochan to look at him with admiration and envy! But in reality, Lu Miaochan found him extremely detestable, to the point of abhorrence! A person who steps on others to show off wealth, especially one stepping on Ye Xuan, greatly annoyed Lu Miaochan, and by extension, her impression of Lou Yiran and the other girls also turned sour. If it weren’t for the relationship as classmates, she would have grabbed Ye Xuan and walked away! Regarding the actions of people before him, Ye Xuan found them quite childish and calmly said, "What, you look down on bricklaying at a construction site? Work has no distinction between high and low, noble and humble, earning money by bricklaying at a construction site relies on one’s own hands!" With that said, Ye Xuan looked around at everyone and asked, "I would like to ask you all, without your families! Could you, even be fit to lay bricks!?" Hmm? Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Lou Yiran and the other girls’ faces turned unsightly, not expecting Ye Xuan to dare to refute them publicly! Especially the last sentence, it was like an invisible slap fiercely landing on their faces, painfully delicious. "Hmph, no matter what you say, the fact that you lay bricks cannot be changed!" Shen Hao said with a stern face. "Teacher Qin is here!" someone nearby shouted. At this, everyone looked up and saw a tall figure with black-framed glasses, a mature woman, walk into the café. Eh, why did this woman come? Upon seeing the woman’s face clearly, Ye Xuan was taken aback. The woman who came was none other than Qin Lan! A huge question mark popped up in Ye Xuan’s head; Qin Lan had just called him earlier, saying she was going to attend a gathering. Could it be... Damn. Was it really such a coincidence? The two women he was supposed to attend with were actually going to the same gathering! Ye Xuan touched his nose, not having expected Qin Lan to be Lu Miaochan’s teacher. He felt like he could even go buy a lottery ticket with such a dramatic twist of events. After Qin Lan walked over, she also saw Ye Xuan and was taken aback. However, when she saw Lu Miaochan beside Ye Xuan, Qin Lan immediately understood what was going on. Her student was actually Ye Xuan’s girlfriend, and the gathering they were both going to attend was indeed the same. Shen Hao’s eyes lit up with amazement when he saw Qin Lan, feeling like he was on a lucky streak. First, there was Lu Miaochan, the campus belle, and now came a goddess-level teacher whose looks didn’t lose to the campus belle, both of whom were more beautiful than his own girlfriend. "Brother Ye, with those calluses on your hands, you won’t be able to shake hands with a beauty!" Shen Hao glanced at Ye Xuan and sneered. After speaking, he revealed a small smile and reached out his hand to greet her: "Beauty, hello! I am..." However, Qin Lan didn’t even look at him, passing by him directly. "Hello! I am Qin Lan!" A sly spark flashed in Qin Lan’s eyes as she came over with a smile and extended a fair, delicate hand towards Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan could only smile helplessly, extending his hand under the incredulous stares of the crowd, and gently shook Qin Lan’s hand: "Hello!" Pfft! Seeing this scene, Shen Hao stiffened, and he nearly spewed a mouthful of old blood onto the ceiling. Damn, he had been slapped in the face again!
