Chapter 205 Threat (First Update)
Chapter 205: Chapter 205 Threat (First Update)
"To not owe yourself anything for the sake of happiness, there’s nothing wrong with that. Many people make this decision, and it’s understandable!" At this moment, Lin Xi looked at Wen Kaide and continued,
"So I believe Xiaoxian’s choice must be the happiest one!"
Boss Wen gave Lin Xi an appreciative look, as if he thought Lin Xi was retreating in the face of difficulties, and praised, "You’re quite sensible, young man. If you can’t find a job in the future, you can come to work for me, I’ll make sure you’re settled!"
"But one should have self-awareness, Xiaoxian is not someone you can reach." His tone shifted, this was an undisguised warning.
"And you can?" Lin Xi curiously countered.
"I’ve been waiting for you to say this!" Boss Wen thought to himself, leisurely pulling over a stool, and after sitting down, he tidied his clothes, exuding the demeanor of a successful person,
"Of course, though I’m not a major businessman, I do run a rather decent supermarket, own three properties, have a Mercedes as a means of transport, and an annual income of several million, that’s all!"
"Within the year, I plan to buy a BMW, if Xiaoxian follows me, I’ll gift it to her!"
"You might as well say, what you can give her now, even in the future, what promises can you make to her, not to mention whether those promises can be fulfilled."
This is clearly a wealthy man trying to oppress a powerless and resource-less student, wanting to steal his beautiful girlfriend.
But under the various pressures and enticements of reality, it’s possible that one side might compromise, ultimately leading to an unhappy breakup.
According to such a pattern, the outcomes are not very good, either the wealthy man plays around for a while and then abandons her, or the boyfriend strives upwards, only to find that no matter how hard he tries, he can’t reach that level of achievement, bowing down to the reality of life.
Of course, the protagonist’s turnaround in novels, like the cyclical shifts of fortune, happens with a probability that is too small, possibly less than one percent.
But unfortunately, he met Lin Xi, a chance smaller than one in a million, so he can only blame his own bad luck, a major misfortune in life.
"Me? That’s none of your business!" Lin Xi picked up a piece of meat, mixed it with rice and ate, then looked at Wen Kaide and said, "However, what you just mentioned, you do have some financial prowess, but in Chuzhou City, people like you are everywhere."
"Of course, supporting a student isn’t difficult, but you’ve picked the wrong person, Xiaoxian isn’t someone you can afford to provoke. Before I get angry, I advise you to leave early, and never have any thoughts about Xiaoxian again, or the consequences won’t be something you can bear."
Gu Xiaoxian, standing beside, couldn’t help blushing and remained silent after Lin Xi spoke.
She was also very angry about what Boss Wen said, she isn’t the kind of person to despise the poor and court the rich. In her heart, she only cares about whether someone is good to her, and whether they are sincere, as for ulterior motives, she can see through them.
She had been working at the supermarket for a while, and Boss Wen had always been particularly nice to her, even repeatedly inviting her to dinner, which she politely declined, hoping he’d understand with time. She didn’t expect things to turn out this way.
When Boss Wen heard Lin Xi’s threat, he instead let out a cold snort. He couldn’t fathom where this kid got his courage, and couldn’t help but sneer, "Kid, I’ve walked more roads than you’ve eaten salt, and you dare threaten me?"
"Threaten?" Lin Xi couldn’t help but find it amusing, did he need to threaten such a small character, instead said, "I see you’re a man with a family, it’s not easy to make it to this point, so consider it a friendly reminder."
As soon as Lin Xi finished speaking, Boss Wen’s face changed. This matter of having a family was something he’d never told Gu Xiaoxian, and he even claimed to be single, he couldn’t help but angrily say, "What nonsense are you spouting? Who are you saying has a family?"
"Not only do you have a family, but you’re also henpecked. I even suspect, the reason you’re at this level today is all thanks to your wife!" Lin Xi put down his chopsticks, staring coldly at Wen Kaide.
