16: I'm happy to throw money around, it's none of your business

… … … …

And as Luo Fan’s voice rang out, Shen Mo also noticed his gaze, and then his heart suddenly filled with joy. He said to the chief steward, “Alright, no need to say more. Pack all of these things for me!”

He pointed to the pile of items where the iron box was located. He had originally been wondering whether to buy all of them, and now Luo Fan had practically told him what this item was.

So, of course, he had to buy everything!

And as Shen Mo’s words came out, the chief steward’s heart was also filled with surprise.

He had just talked himself hoarse and hadn't expected to necessarily gain anything.

After all, although Shen Mo looked outwardly splendid, he was not the one in charge of the Shen Family.

Moreover, even though Feng Linghuang was with him, the Feng Family’s assets were not under his control.

Upon hearing Shen Mo say he wanted to buy, his heart was filled with pleasant surprise, and he immediately had people pack the items.

His movements were so swift, he almost seemed to fly.

After all, what if the items weren't bought and Shen Mo changed his mind?!

This was a big client!

As for the money…

Since Shen Mo bought them, could the Shen Family and Feng Linghuang possibly let him owe money?

Heh heh!

As everyone thought this, Fu Xueyan and Luo Fan were walking over, and seeing the situation, they suddenly stopped.

Fu Xueyan’s expression was indignant, “You’re just doing this on purpose because you saw that we wanted to buy that iron box!”

Fu Xueyan was extremely angry.

She had clearly seen Shen Mo’s gaze look over here just now, and then he bought those items.

She refused to believe there was no trickery or deliberate retaliation from Shen Mo involved.

Shen Mo rolled his eyes at her, looking arrogant and even more overbearing than her, saying, “I was going to buy it anyway!”

“Even if it’s first come, first served, I was here first!”

“What’s it to you?”

“Don’t think that just because you look good, I’ll give it to you!”

“I’m telling you, that face of yours is worth nothing in front of me!”

Fu Xueyan immediately put a big hat on him, would Shen Mo indulge her?

Moreover, this woman was typically love-struck, believing whatever nonsense Luo Fan said. She was already at odds with Shen Mo, and Shen Mo had often been put in a difficult position by her in the past, with her acting as if her eyes were on top of her head. Would Shen Mo indulge her?

And as his voice rang out, Fu Xueyan’s heart was filled with rage.

On the other side, Luo Fan looked deeply at Shen Mo.

This was the second time the other party had offended him!

Luo Fan suspected whether Shen Mo was deliberately going against him.

After all, back at Tianhai Tower, he had made Shen Mo lose a lot of face.

Was he trying to use Feng Linghuang’s influence to deal with him?

Luo Fan’s heart was disdainful, hmph, a pretty boy!

His heart was jealous and frustrated, and his voice towards Shen Mo carried a hint of arrogance, “Logically speaking, if Young Master Shen likes this item, we should let it go.”

“But Xueyan needs to choose a birthday gift for Chairman Fu, so please, Young Master Shen, be generous and let it go.”

Luo Fan was determined to use Fu Changdong’s identity to make Shen Mo back down.

After all, he wasn't the one who wanted this gift, but Fu Changdong. Shen Mo surely wouldn't be so rude as to snatch it from Fu Xueyan, right?

One should know that Fu Changdong’s business in Lin Hai City was also very large, and his power and prestige were no less than the Shen Family’s, perhaps even slightly stronger than the Shen Family’s.

If Lu Yufei hadn't been his first woman, whom he truly couldn't give up, his first girlfriend would have been Fu Xueyan.

However, he intended to win over Fu Xueyan next as well.

Because of this, his gaze towards Shen Mo carried a hint of condescending scrutiny.

After all, in Luo Fan’s view, he would definitely be able to reach a higher position than Shen Mo in the future. And so what if Shen Mo was with Feng Linghuang now?

Just a pretty boy relying on a woman, without strength or prestige?

Even if Feng Linghuang was interested in him for a while, how long could it last?

When Feng Linghuang grew tired of this relationship, what difference would there be between Shen Mo and discarded trash on the roadside?

Luo Fan thought this, and his gaze towards Shen Mo even carried a hint of pity.

“How about this.”

He spoke condescendingly, as if offering a negotiation and a benefit to Shen Mo, saying, “We are willing to pay double the price to purchase this iron box from Young Master Shen.”

“I see this iron box was consigned here by someone else. We are willing to buy all these items at double the price, absolutely not making things difficult for Young Master Shen. What do you think?”

Luo Fan was very confident.

After all, in his opinion, how much disposable income could Shen Mo, a family good-for-nothing, have?

Even if he did, it would be limited.

And by selling these items, Shen Mo would recover his cost, gain a profit, and save face. It’s killing three birds with one stone, isn’t that great?

Luo Fan and Fu Xueyan thought very similarly; they both believed Shen Mo was deliberately trying to snatch their items.

Since that was the case, if he bought it back at a high price, Shen Mo should be appeased.

Compared to the contents of the box, this small humiliation for Shen Mo was nothing.

Once he got the item, Shen Mo would have it coming to him later!

Luo Fan’s mind raced with many thoughts, and he quickly bowed his head and yielded to Shen Mo, just waiting for Shen Mo to arrogantly agree.

Shen Mo glanced at him, wondering if his intelligence was being looked down upon?

Was he short of that little bit of money?!

Was Luo Fan trying to throw money at him?

And with a pitiful look on his face.

Not to mention that Shen Mo came specifically to intercept Luo Fan this time; even if he hadn't, with the other party’s condescending attitude, he wouldn't let him off easy!

“Oh, it seems Young Master Luo Fan is very rich?”

Shen Mo looked at Luo Fan with a smile, saying, “Since that’s the case, then you pay up!”

“Thirteen billion Blue Star Coins! Double the price.”

“Miss one coin, and I’ll break your leg right here!”

Shen Mo directly quoted an astronomical price.

Thirteen billion Blue Star Coins was equivalent to Tianwu Pavilion’s annual revenue in Lin Hai City.

This was no joke!

Not to mention Luo Fan couldn’t produce it, even if he really could, others would investigate where he got so much money.

So, even if Luo Fan truly had the money, it was absolutely impossible for him to produce it.

What’s more, his money was basically inherited assets from the Medical Saint.

Those assets couldn't be easily revealed to others.

Luo Fan had always been extremely cautious.

Who would have thought that Shen Mo would open his mouth and demand thirteen billion Blue Star Coins? How was that possible?!

How could these items cost so much money?!

Fu Xueyan was indignant, pointing at Shen Mo.

“Why is it impossible?”

Shen Mo looked at her scornfully, saying, “You poor folks, don’t compare me to yourselves.”

“I’m willing to spend thirteen billion Blue Star Coins to play around, do you have an opinion?”
