84: Chapter 84 Shared Hatred
Bai Jing pointed at the pendant hanging around Lin Xiaojin's neck, then looked at Bai Feng, sneering with disdain, "If you don't need your eyes, you can donate them."
"The ocean heart is azure blue, but this kiss of the starry sea is a deep-sea color, as profound as ink."
"Furthermore, I should let you know that while the ocean heart sold for a staggering 120 million at the Stoddard Auction House, the buyer was actually being fleeced. The kiss of the starry sea, which was mined alongside the ocean heart, is the true top-grade jadeite."
"Moreover, this kiss of the starry sea was extracted from the point where the fossilized beaks of two albatrosses met in a kiss, symbolizing a loyal love as steadfast as an albatross!"
"The kiss of the starry sea was already reserved internally, with a rumored price exceeding 500 million. The flawed jadeite that merely shared its glory was packaged as the ocean heart. I didn't know who the sucker was that bought the ocean heart, but after all this fuss, it turns out it's you, you idiot!"
As the current 'only daughter' of the Bai family, Bai Jing was pampered and had exceptional taste.
She had noticed the kiss of the starry sea Lin Xiaojin was wearing as soon as she entered Company Name.
She just didn't expect some idiot would use the ocean heart, which only rode the coattails of the kiss of the starry sea, to try and show up the original.
It was so ridiculous it bordered on stupidity!
"kiss of the starry sea?"
Lin Xiaojin delicately held the pendant on her neck like a treasure.
Originally, she only cherished it because it was the first gift Qin Ge had given her.
She hadn't expected the pendant to have such a profound meaning.
Did it represent Qin Ge's unwavering love for her?!
Lin Xiaojin bit her lip, tightly clutching the kiss of the starry sea in her palm, a warm current flowing through her heart.
Worth over 500 million?
Such an expensive piece of jewelry.
She had been wearing it around her neck every day.
It was lucky that the people she met didn't recognize its value.
If she had run into a robber...
Wouldn't she have caused more trouble for Qin Ge?
As Lin Xiaojin nervously thought about putting the pendant away, Jiang Yingxue, standing beside Bai Jing, felt a pang of bitterness that made her eyes turn red.
She didn't care about the value of the kiss of the starry sea.
But the meaning behind this jewelry was like Qin Ge's openly displayed affection for Lin Xiaojin.
If she hadn't been so difficult before...
If she hadn't failed to cherish Qin Ge and hurt him so deeply...
How could this kiss of the starry sea be a gift from Qin Ge to Lin Xiaojin now?
It should have been hers!
Jiang Yingxue's heart grew more pained as she clenched her small fists.
At the same time, her resolve became even firmer.
In the past, she had tainted Qin Ge's pure and flawless love.
From now on, she would use everything she had to make amends and compensate Qin Ge!
"What are you still standing here for? Since harassment didn't work, are you planning to use force?"
Bai Jing rested a hand on her slender waist, her chest trembling as she pointed at Bai Feng's nose and scolded him sharply, "That flawed jadeite you bought is nothing more than an intruder trying to wedge itself into the kiss of the starry sea's space."
"I didn't expect that you, the owner, would be just like the jadeite you bought—a shameless third party."
"And yet, you have the nerve to stand from the perspective of a third party and criticize Lin Xiaojin."
"Where do you get the face?"
Bai Feng was initially furious, but when he saw Bai Jing's familiar face, he suppressed his anger deep within his heart.
Bai Jing didn't recognize him, but he recognized this sister of his—his biological sister from the same parents.
"So, both of you know that Lin Xiaojin is Qin Ge's girlfriend?"
A cold sneer played in Bai Feng's eyes.
From the moment Jiang Yingxue appeared, he had been stunned by this yunhai citys number one beauty.
She was breathtakingly beautiful, enough to make fish sink and birds fall, to eclipse the moon and shame the flowers.
Even with Bai Feng's experience traveling through many countries, Jiang Yingxue's appearance was firmly in the top three.
He knew Jiang Yingxue was Qin Ge's ex-girlfriend.
Since Qin Ge had stolen his Lin Xiaojin...
Why couldn't he steal Jiang Yingxue, whom Qin Ge loved but could not have?
With a cold laugh in his heart, Bai Feng looked at Lin Xiaojin and said playfully, "Lin Xiaojin, you are unswervingly loyal to Qin Ge, but do you know that in corners you can't see, Qin Ge has other lovers?"
Even Lin Xiaojin, with her good temper, couldn't help but get angry upon hearing Bai Feng's words.
She clenched her small fists, her delicate face turning red with rage as she said, "Bai Feng, what kind of man are you, badmouthing people behind their backs!?"
Screech—!
Just then, a sleek black sports car came to a steady, sudden halt by the roadside.
Qin Ge stepped out from under the scissor doors with long, powerful legs. His well-tailored suit perfectly showcased his flawless physique.
With his charm at a high of 99 points, even just a profile of his face made countless passing pedestrians stop and stare.
Many women even took out their phones to snap secret photos.
Qin Ge walked to Lin Xiaojin's side and naturally wrapped his arm around her slender waist. He looked at Bai Feng across from them with interest and wondered, "Last time, you were lucky enough to escape. I can't believe you'd dare show your face in front of me again, or even dream of stealing my woman?"
"Qin Ge!?"
The moment Bai Feng saw Qin Ge, he was consumed by rage, a wave of resentment surging uncontrollably in his chest.
This was the man who had stolen his Ning Ke'er.
It was also this guy who had bewitched Lin Xiaojin's heart.
Even his precious life-saving blood seed was lost because of Qin Ge!
This grudge was irreconcilable.
He would make Qin Ge pay with his life!
The moment he saw Qin Ge, Bai Feng was filled with murderous intent.
Without a word of nonsense, he kicked off the ground and shot forward like a cannonball.
He threw a punch straight at Qin Ge's head!
Last time, he had escaped death and his strength had improved once more.
This time, he would kill Qin Ge in a fair, frontal confrontation!
Qin Ge calmly let go of Lin Xiaojin and, instead of retreating, stepped forward and threw a punch to meet Bai Feng's.
Thud—!
As the fists collided, a dull sound erupted like a clap of thunder from within heavy storm clouds.
A fierce wind blasted outward from the point of impact. Even pedestrians dozens of meters away were knocked back by the sudden gust.
Despite the backlash from the blow, Qin Ge's Cangxuan Hegemon Body provided damage immunity. He took the opportunity to stumble back two steps. With a sudden flash of inspiration, he fell into Bai Jing’s proud bosom, causing it to bounce three times.
Seeing this, both Lin Xiaojin and Jiang Yingxue's eyes turned red with concern.
They turned their verbal fire on Bai Feng, who had rolled miserably over a dozen meters across the ground, his right arm broken with white bone exposed and blood flowing continuously:
"Bai Feng, how can you be so shameless?"
"It's one thing to badmouth people behind their backs."
"But how can you have the nerve to strike first as a third party!"
Bai Jing instinctively helped up Qin Ge, who had just made her chest ache from the impact. She also stood on the moral high ground, pointing an accusing finger at Bai Feng, "Interfering in someone else's relationship and then lashing out in a fit of incompetent rage—I, Bai Jing, have never seen anyone as thick-skinned and shameless as you!"
Bai Feng was inwardly shocked by Qin Ge's strength.
Even after his Breakthrough, he was still no match.
But what horrified him most now wasn't Qin Ge's power.
It was the three women—Lin Xiaojin, Jiang Yingxue, and Bai Jing—standing united against him.
Supporting his shattered right arm with his left hand, he gritted his teeth against the piercing pain and glared at Jiang Yingxue and the other two, hissing with hatred, "Qin Ge is completely unharmed, while my arm is ruined. Why are you three so biased toward him!?"
Lin Xiaojin retorted as a matter of course, "Because I am Qin Ge's girlfriend!"
Jiang Yingxue clenched her small fists and shouted angrily at Bai Feng, "I am Qin Ge's ex-girlfriend!"
Bai Jing's chest seemed to override her brain. In a momentary lapse, she said, not wanting to be outdone, "I am Qin Ge's future girlfriend!"
