Chapter 93: Chapter 93: The Pretentious Whiz KidIn Shen Hao’s envious, jealous, and hateful gaze, Ye Xuan and Qin Lan let go of each other’s hands! "Eh? Young Master Shen, why are you holding out a hand? Could it be that no one wants to shake hands with you? Even a brick mover like me has beauties coming to my doorstep. It seems you, as the real estate young master, aren’t doing so well, huh?" Ye Xuan revealed a look of surprise, with a hint of playfulness at the corner of his mouth. "OMG, could this be the legendary face-slapping moment? Sorry, I accidentally hit your face! Hahaha." "I..." Shen Hao had an expression like he had just swallowed feces, and in his mind, countless F-words dashed through uncontrollably, already holding a grudge against Ye Xuan. Yet, Lou Yiran and the girls witnessed this scene with a slight frown, not expecting Shen Hao, who was a wealthy youth, to lose face at the hands of Ye Xuan! "What is this about moving bricks?" Qin Lan asked, puzzled. "It’s nothing, Brother Ye was just joking. Nowadays, everyone is living well; nobody goes to construction sites to move bricks anymore." After a moment of silence, Shen Hao said with a downcast and irritated face. Now that he had lost so much face, if he were to admit that Ye Xuan really was a brick mover, then wouldn’t he, Shen the Young Master, be even less than a brick mover? However, he made up his mind that he would find an opportunity tonight to give Ye Xuan a good lesson and make him lose all face in front of Lu Miaochan and Qin Lan! "Right, Yiran, I’ve booked a KTV booth at Xingyu Clubhouse. It’s still early, so let’s go sing first, and then go for a meal after!" Shen Hao glared fiercely at Ye Xuan and then said to Lou Yiran and the girls. Hearing Shen Hao’s words, the girls all cheered: "I’ve heard that Xingyu Clubhouse is a new entertainment complex launched by the Empire Hotel, offering dining, karaoke, and amusement services all in one. I’ve been eager to check it out!" The girls chattered away, all visibly excited; even Lu Miaochan showed some anticipation. When everyone had gathered, a group of fifteen or sixteen people walked out of the café. Several cars were parked outside, including Audis, BMWs, and a Buick convertible. While they were not top-tier luxury cars, to have such cars in the hands of a group of college students also suggested something about their not-so-ordinary backgrounds. Shen Hao drove a high-end BMW X5, the best vehicle among the group, and as the hostess, Lou Yiran, naturally, rode in his car. The other people also went to different cars, with Xu Meng climbing into Jiang Chao’s Audi, while Li Tingting rode in Wang Kun’s Buick convertible! Qin Lan, as a teacher, naturally was invited by Lou Yiran into the BMW, and even Lu Miaochan climbed into an SUV. Finally, only Ye Xuan was left not having gotten into a car. Seeing this, Shen Hao was secretly delighted, not having expected that the opportunity to deal with Ye Xuan would come so quickly. He poked his head out from the BMW, as if he had noticed Ye Xuan only at that moment and said in surprise, "Oh my, Brother Ye, I actually forgot about you, my mistake!" His mouth said it was his fault, but his expression clearly conveyed a ’I’m going to mess with you’ attitude. "Brother Ye, we’re all full here. Why don’t you take a taxi across the street? Just tell the taxi driver ’Xingyu Clubhouse’, and he’ll know where it is." As soon as he finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter. Shen Hao’s face was full of mockery, thinking, ’You wanted to make me lose face? Now I’ll make you look foolish! Let’s see if your girlfriend still looks up to you then.’ Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed, and a chill flashed in his eyes as he looked at Shen Hao. This kid kept provoking him repeatedly. If this had happened in the past when he was overseas, he would have slapped him dead long ago! "Ye Xuan, you can ride with me!" At that moment, two voices said in unison. Everyone looked in surprise only to see that it was Lu Miaochan and Qin Lan who had spoken! They were all stupefied. Holy crap, what’s going on here? Lu Miaochan, the campus beauty, and Qin Lan, the beautiful teacher, both wanted to sit with this kid! The former is easy to understand, they were already boyfriend and girlfriend! But Teacher Qin, what crowd are you joining here? Everyone looked over with strange gazes. As soon as he spoke, both women were taken aback, exchanging glances. Qin Lan’s pretty face turned red, but luckily it was night and no one could tell. Lu Miaochan frowned her delicate eyebrows, seeing Ye Xuan being mocked, she pushed open the door and got out, "Ye Xuan, I’ll take a taxi with you!" Sitting in the BMW, Qin Lan hesitated for a moment, then said to Lou Yiran, "Yiran, I’m a bit worried about the two of them going off on their own, I’ll go keep them company." With a fitting excuse ready, she prepared to get out of the car! Seeing this, Shen Hao was a bit dumbfounded. If both Qin Lan and Lu Miaochan took a taxi, that definitely wouldn’t reflect well on him, they’d think he was stingy, then how would he flirt with girls? Reluctantly, he had no choice but to say to Ye Xuan, "Bro Ye, there’s still room in my car, come ride with me!" The BMW had plenty of space inside, capable of seating four or five people, so Lu Miaochan joined Ye Xuan in the BMW. Looking at the backseat and seeing Ye Xuan sandwiched between Qin Lan and Lu Miaochan, Shen Hao was visibly displeased, wishing that he was the one sitting there. Of course, he could only think about it, as his official girlfriend was sitting next to him. "Let’s set off!" After muttering "country bumpkin" under his breath, Shen Hao finally started the car and drove away. The following cars caught up one by one. ... Near Central City, there were many restaurants, dinners, KTVs, and other entertainment venues, and come night, the area would be bright with lights and bustling with excitement. Undoubtedly, the Star Entertainment Club was the biggest among them, with the most diverse content and amenities, combining dining and entertainment in one! After everyone arrived at their destination, a server immediately came over. Shen Hao handed over the keys and slipped a few hundred as a tip, throwing a smug look at Ye Xuan. It was as if he was saying, see? The tip I casually give is a few hundred, enough for you to move bricks at the construction site for several days! But noticing Ye Xuan’s indifferent gaze, Shen Hao curled his lip and inwardly cursed, you’re just a poor guy, yet you dare to act calm? Wait till later, I’ll make you look good. Currently, many luxury cars were parked at the entrance of Emperor View Hotel; Lamborghinis, Wanbachers, Porsches... Shen Hao’s BMW X5 was not bad, but it was nothing special here, and at best could only be parked at the edge of the lot. Suddenly, amidst the luxury cars, Ye Xuan spotted a familiar vehicle, it was Luo Wei’s Audi R8! He then remembered Luo Wei mentioning he had reserved a private room at Star Entertainment Club, evidently, he was probably here now. "Everyone, follow me!" Shen Hao called out and led everyone towards the interior of Star Entertainment Club. "Excuse me, do you have a reservation?" Seeing the group enter, the polite server at the door asked. "I’m Shen Hao from Starlight Real Estate. Today’s my girlfriend’s birthday, we want to sing first, then hold a birthday party later, can you arrange a spot for us? One deluxe private room, please!" Shen Hao scanned the women with a gaze full of grandiosity. The people coming here were of no low status, and the server had never heard of any ’Young Master Shen’. Nevertheless, maintaining professional courtesy, the server smiled and said, "I’m sorry, sir, our last regular room has been booked, you can show your membership card and go to our VIP rooms." "Booked?" Shen Hao furrowed his brow, as he had obviously promised a lot just now, and now there were no private rooms available, wasn’t this a slap in his own face. "Wow, Young Master Shen, didn’t you say you reserved a deluxe private room at Emperor View Hotel? How come someone snatched it away? Looks like your little act of pretense isn’t working after all! Thought you were so capable, such a letdown." Next to him, Ye Xuan put on a frustrated expression and exclaimed dramatically. At first, the women hadn’t noticed, but with Ye Xuan’s shout, they immediately turned their attention. Shen Hao’s face turned green on the spot...
