350:

Just as Chen Xinyi was about to speak up and refute Deng Xiangming, Ye Su beat her to it, speaking with a smile first:

"Oh? So you've done a lot of research on watches?"

Deng Xiangming put on a humble expression. "It's alright, I wouldn't say I've done too much research."

Deng Xiangming wanted to show off, but Ye Su deliberately played along with his words:

"No wonder you have the cheek to parade around with just a Green Submariner. So it turns out you really don't know much about watches. That explains it."

With just one sentence, Deng Xiangming's face turned from sunny to overcast, but Ye Su had no intention of letting him off.

Respect is given by others, but losing face is of one's own making.

Since someone had actively brought his face over, Ye Su would naturally slap him back and forth a few times.

"Then again, there are some watches you can't afford even if you look at them. It's better not to research them, lest you end up drooling over them."

Ye Su's sarcastic remarks made Deng Xiangming's eyes spit fire, and he could no longer maintain his gentlemanly facade:

"Yeah, I can't afford those expensive watches, but at least I can afford to wear a Green Submariner."

After saying that, Deng Xiangming looked at Ye Su with a provocative expression.

His underlying meaning was obvious: The price of my single watch is enough for you to buy two or three. How do you have the face to say this to me?

"Oh, so you're saying the watch I'm wearing isn't as expensive as yours." Ye Su casually waved the blue balloon on his wrist.

"I wear this watch because Chen Xinyi gave it to me and I like wearing it. Right now, at home, I also have a Patek Philippe 5270G and a Richard Mille RM11."

Ye Su chuckled and glanced at the Green Submariner on Deng Xiangming's wrist:

"You wear a Green Submariner because you can only afford a Green Submariner. I wear a blue balloon because I like wearing this watch. That's the difference between us."

"Heh." Deng Xiangming laughed out of extreme anger.

In his eyes, Ye Su was purely boasting.

Patek Philippe, Richard Mille... Deng Xiangming doubted if he had even seen these watches before.

Just as he was about to mock him—after all, anyone could talk big—Ye Su beat him to the punch again and continued:

"I know, you're definitely going to say that I'm just boasting, and that anyone can talk big, right?"

Having his words stolen by Ye Su, Deng Xiangming could only swallow his retort and sneer:

"I didn't say that. You're just admitting it yourself because you have a guilty conscience, right?"

Deng Xiangming thought that after saying this, Ye Su's boast would be punctured and he wouldn't be able to save face. To his surprise, Ye Su's psychological resilience was quite good, and he still maintained that punchable smile.

"These two watches only add up to a little over two million. It's not some huge sum. Do you really think I need to use these two watches to boast?"

Deng Xiangming didn't answer, only letting out a scoff, his eyes filled with disdain.

"Only" over two million? Chen Xinyi's boyfriend was really spitting out one boast after another.

Could he have come here after drinking?

If that were the case, as a law-abiding citizen, he would definitely have to call and report him when he saw him driving later.

Standing on the side, Chen Xinyi was also secretly tongue-tied when she heard Ye Su say he had two luxury watches worth over a million each.

She hadn't noticed it before, but he was actually quite good at boasting.

Looking at the firm look in his eyes while boasting, he made it sound as if it were absolutely true.

If she didn't live with him, Chen Xinyi felt she would have been fooled by him too.

"According to you, if you usually wear Patek Philippe and Richard Mille watches worth over a million, why do you let Chen Xinyi wear a blue balloon? Shouldn't you let her wear a better watch too?"

After mocking him, Deng Xiangming also seized the opportunity, wanting to slap the face of her boyfriend—who couldn't seem to stop boasting—right in front of Chen Xinyi:

"As a man, you can't be so stingy to your girlfriend."

Worried that Ye Su would get angry, Chen Xinyi immediately wanted to stand up for him and say she was perfectly happy with it.

But as if knowing what Chen Xinyi was going to say, Ye Su just patted the back of her hand, signaling her not to get angry.

"You're right. As a man, one shouldn't be stingy to his girlfriend. But don't learn from those green tea bitches, sounding so full of green tea flavor when you speak."

As he spoke, Ye Su slipped his hand out from Chen Xinyi's arms, took out a black card from his pocket, and handed it to a bewildered Chen Xinyi:

"This is a shopping black card that the boss of Joyful Gathering gave me a few days ago. It has a limit of 500,000. It's yours. Just buy whatever you like later."

This shopping black card was originally intended for taking Chen Xinyi to spend at Joyful Gathering tomorrow.

Given today's situation, he might as well just give it to her directly. It was also a perfect opportunity to show off.

Furthermore, he had just triggered a hidden task with a 660,000 cash reward, which was more than enough to cover this 500,000 shopping card with plenty to spare.

"A shopping black card with a 500,000 limit!" Chen Xinyi's eyes widened in disbelief.

Ye Su had never been stingy with her, but this was the first time he had been so generous, giving her a 500,000-limit shopping card right off the bat.

This shopping card wasn't like those supermarket coupons; it could be used directly for purchases at any store in Joyful Gathering.

She would only need to buy a few investment gold bars from the gold shop inside and then sell them back to the shop to cash it out in minutes!

This shopping black card couldn't be fake, right?

After her shock subsided, Chen Xinyi couldn't help but look at Ye Su suspiciously, thinking that this card he had casually pulled out of his pocket was just used to fool Deng Xiangming.

Besides, she had never heard Ye Su mention before that he knew the boss of Joyful Gathering.

"Thank you, honey~~~"

Suspicion aside, under such circumstances, there was no way Chen Xinyi would let Ye Su lose face.

Not only did she put on a high-pitched, cloying voice to thank Ye Su, but she also kissed Ye Su on the cheek right in front of Deng Xiangming.

"Humph!"

Seeing Chen Xinyi, whom he had spent days trying to win over to no avail, being so intimate with another man right in front of him, Deng Xiangming let out a cold snort of jealousy:

"Don't be fooled by him. You know the boss of Joyful Gathering is worth at least billions. How could someone like him possibly know a tycoon of that class?

In my opinion, this 500,000 Joyful Gathering shopping black card is also something he brought out to trick you. Don't take it seriously. If you actually go to Joyful Gathering to spend it later, you might end up getting arrested by the police."

Unable to bear it any longer, Chen Xinyi frowned and retorted, "I'm willing to believe him. What's it to you!"

Having offered a "kind" warning to Chen Xinyi out of fear of her being tricked due to ignorance, only to receive her angry shout in return, Deng Xiangming's face turned as dark as pig liver from anger.

"Sigh."

Worried that Deng Xiangming would be driven away by the two of them, Ye Su also shook his head at Deng Xiangming with a feigned sigh, his eyes filled with pity:

"To firmly believe that things you can't access must be fake only shows that your level isn't high enough."

Mimicking the manner of "Sunny Gege", Ye Su extended his right hand toward Deng Xiangming, palm down, stopping at about chest height:

"This is your level."

Just as Deng Xiangming finally couldn't take it anymore and wanted to flare up at Ye Su, Ye Su put his hand back into his pocket, pulled out his Lamborghini keys, and waved them in front of Deng Xiangming's eyes with the logo facing him.
