Fiya, shouting, says,
"Hey! Stop! If there's even a single scratch on it, what will happen? Do you even know how expensive this car is?"
Hearing this, Fang Hao looks at her in surprise and says in a calm but confident tone,
"I mean... I want to buy it. So I have to check it, right?"
Fiya's face turns red with anger. She yells,
"Are you crazy or what!? Do you have any sense? Do you even have the means to buy it!? This car costs 150 million yuan!"
Hearing this, Fang Hao thinks to himself
"150 million yuan... hmm..."
At that moment, Fiya gets even more furious,
"Didn't you hear me!? Get lost! Go look at some cheap car, you pauper!"
Hearing this, Fang Hao looks her in the eyes and says,
"What's your problem? Even if something happened to the car, I'd pay for it. Why are you being so aggressive?"
Fiya now completely loses control of her temper.
"You're wasting my time, you lazy bum! Every day, people like you sneak into the showroom!"
But then
SLAP.
A loud slap lands on Fiya's cheek, and she stumbles back, falling a short distance.
A booming voice roars,
"You wretch! Do you even know what you're doing?"
Fiya, with tears in her eyes, clutches her face. She slowly gets up, her eyes filled with a mix of grief, shock, and shame.
She softly says,
"Y Young Master Jin..."
Fang Hao turns around to look. Kuro and another friend, Jin, are standing at the showroom's entrance, both with serious and intense expressions.
Fiya, looking at Young Master Jin, points toward Fang Hao.
"Young Master, this guy... he was trying to touch the car. I was trying to stop him."
The lines of anger on Jin's face deepen. His teeth clench.
He thinks to himself
"You wretch... why were you even trying..."
Then, looking into Fiya's eyes, he says in a cold but firm tone,
"You didn't just stop him. You misbehaved. You were rude to him. Alright then go to the counter, collect your salary, and leave this place forever."
The ground slips from beneath Fiya's feet.
Her throat dries up, and tears well up in her eyes. She thinks to herself,
"What... what did I do wrong..."
Then she looks at Fang Hao. For a few moments silence hangs in the air.
In the next moment Fiya, crawling on her knees across the shiny showroom floor, moves toward Fang Hao. Her face is soaked with tears.
"Sir... please forgive me."
Fang Hao looks at her in slight surprise, taken aback by the extreme change in her behavior.
Then Fiya grabs his feet.
"If anything happened to that car I would have had to pay a fine too. I was just following the showroom's policy. I really need this job. I'm the only one earning in my family and my father is ill."
Hearing this, Fang Hao is momentarily stunned.
His eyes meet Fiya's, now completely wet and filled with genuine pain and helplessness.
Something softens in his heart. Taking a deep breath, he turns to Jin and says,
"Brother, forgive her this time."
Hearing this, Jin gets a bit angry and says,
"No brother! She insulted you."
But calming him down, Fang Hao raises his hands slightly and explains,
"Look, the situation she explained was completely valid. If I had damaged the car, it could have been a big problem for her. It was my mistake."
Then Fang Hao extends his hand toward Fiya and says,
"Get up and bring the machine. I need to make the payment."
Fiya is a bit shocked. She thinks to herself,
"Is he seriously going to pay? Well Young Master Jin is here now."
She quickly brings the billing machine and says,
"Sir, here you go."
Fang Hao takes out a black card from his pocket, its shine gleaming even brighter under the showroom lights.
Then he swipes the card in the machine. A ding sound comes from the machine.
150 million yuan transaction successful.
Fiya's eyes widen in shock. She thinks to herself,
"What, seriously?"
Then Fang Hao comes close to her and calmly says,
"This car should be delivered to Shanghai Royal University by tomorrow. I have to go abroad in a few days."
Fiya immediately bows before him and says,
"Yes Young Master."
Her inner fear speaks up,
"It seems I was about to offend some billionaire or tycoon."
On the other side Fang Hao goes to Kuro and Jin and says,
"Let's go brothers."
Jin excitedly says,
"Brother Fang Hao, you totally stole the show. That car was the most expensive one in my showroom."
Kuro laughing says,
"That car might be a supercar for us, but for Brother Fang Hao it is just a toy."
Jin immediately says,
"Come on brothers, let's go to the club."
But Fang Hao refuses.
"No, I don't want to go. I have some work."
He thinks to himself,
"I should stay in touch with Yuki. I don't know if she is okay or not."
Kuro looks at Fang Hao and says,
"Brother please. You're always the first to leave."
Fang Hao thinks for a moment and says,
"Alright fine. But we came in the Ferrari. It can fit two people, but there are three of us."
Jin laughs and says,
"Brother are you joking? We are literally inside my car showroom."
He claps his hands. Just then a white Mercedes pulls up outside the showroom, and Fang Hao slightly surprised says,
"Alright fine, let's go."
Then the three of them Fang Hao, Kuro, and Jin get into the car and drive away.
Next Morning
In the morning Fang Hao wakes up startled from his bed thinking,
"What happened last night?"
Then he looks at his phone. The screen shows ninety nine plus messages popping up from a group called Dragon Den.
He thinks to himself,
"Oh yeah I remember. When we went to the club last night Kuro's other friends added me to a group. All the businessmen in China are in it. At first I thought it was a professional group, but a forty six year old businessman was flirting with a twenty three year old girl in the name of business."
"Then we drank a lot, and at night Kuro's bodyguard dropped me off at the hostel because I had to go see a property today."
He freshens up and says,
"Alright no big deal. I have to check out the property today."
Just then his phone rings. A call comes from an unknown number and Fang Hao pauses for a moment.
Fang Hao answers the call.
"Hello who is this?"
A voice from the other side says,
"Sir this is Fiya speaking. Your car is ready. It will be delivered to your hostel in an hour."
Fang Hao happily says,
"Alright good."
Then looking at his phone he thinks,
"I also have to go to Hao's office today."
He opens the Dragon Den group and thinks,
"I had told Mei to come with me but I don't have her number. Let's check the group."
He finds Mei's number and immediately calls her.
At that moment Mei is sitting at a café table in an elegant white dress. Her hair is neatly tied up. Her eyes behind her glasses are focused on her laptop screen. She holds a coffee cup in her hands.
"I need to finish this file quickly," she thinks.
Just then her phone rings.
She looks at the screen.
"Unknown number?"
Hesitating slightly she answers the phone.
"Hello, who is this?"
On the other side Fang Hao says,
"Hey Mei this is Fang Hao speaking. We were supposed to go see the property today."
Mei surprised says,
"Oh I completely forgot."
Then she quickly says,
"Young Master, I will get ready right now."
Fang Hao laughing says,
"Alright. Where should I pick you up?"
Mei thinks for a moment and says,
"You can pick me up from the gate of Fubuki Mall."
"Alright," Fang Hao says and hangs up.
Then he says to himself,
"Chen Hao just wait."
On the other side
Ten Hao is standing in front of Chen Hao. At that moment Chen Hao is with Mei Lin.
Ten Hao says to his son,
"Today a Young Master from the Ancient Family is coming to our place. I would welcome him myself, but he is around your age. I want you to befriend him. Be careful not to offend him in any way."
Hearing this both Chen Hao and Mei Lin in a mix of shock and excitement say,
"What? He is really coming here?"
Ten Hao nods.
"Yes. Now go and prepare for his arrival immediately. I will be watching you all from the main office room."
As Chen Hao leaves he excitedly says,
"If I manage to befriend him I will one hundred percent become the next head of our family."
Hearing this Mei Lin happily says,
"Seriously babe you are the best. You will definitely pull it off."
Chen Hao proudly raises his nose and says,
"Of course."
Then both of them leave. Chen Hao says,
"Babe follow me. No matter what we cannot miss this opportunity."
On the other side
Fang Hao steps out of his hostel and looks around thinking,
"My car hasn't arrived yet?"
Then clenching his fist he says,
"Chen Hao I will finish you."
