Chapter 1049 — Feng Xiaoxiao's True Intentions
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Gah?" Wu Chengtian froze, his expression instantly turning a little awkward!
Sun Jingyan was not wrong. If the scions of great clans went into business, they simply could not lose money; their connections were everywhere, and so long as they found the right channels, they would invariably rake in a fortune. But Wu Chengtian had no real interest in running anything — the company existed purely so he could show off in front of Sun Jingyan. So in truth it earned not a single cent and was in fact losing money!
By Sun Jingyan's logic, that made him an idiot and a fool! Yet Wu Chengtian could hardly argue back — arguing back would only further confirm the fact that he was an idiot.
"That's true, but even so, it matters how much one earns! Someone like Brother Chengtian, raking in gold every day — there aren't many like that. Which just goes to show what an impressive man Brother Chengtian is!" Feng Xiaoxiao said.
At her words, Wu Chengtian's delight leapt straight to his brows! This Feng Xiaoxiao was simply too much to his taste! Absolutely wonderful — with a single sentence she had resolved his awkwardness and made him out to be the cream of the crop among the great clans' scions!
"Heh heh, I'm only a little better than the average man, that's all!" Wu Chengtian said, floating on air.
"Exactly! Didn't you see how commanding Brother Chengtian was just now when he taught those car-smashing little punks a lesson?" Feng Xiaoxiao said with deep admiration. "Brother Chengtian said, 'Do you think I look like a man without money?' So commanding!"
"Haha, that's right — a pack of little punks, smashing a car and thinking they can just pay their way out of it? Dream on! If I hadn't beaten them so badly they couldn't even recognize each other, then I wouldn't be Wu Iron Hand!" Wu Chengtian roared with laughter. He had already accepted the nickname Wu Iron Hand; he thought it sounded tremendously domineering!
"Exactly. The pittance they paid in compensation — in Brother Chengtian's eyes it's nothing at all, just a single day's profit, right?" Feng Xiaoxiao asked.
"Of course! Five million yuan is nothing to me!" Wu Chengtian nodded, thoroughly convinced of his own words. "That's about a single day's profit!"
"Right, that's what I was saying. When Brother Chengtian asked them for money, he was really just trying to teach them a lesson so they won't go smashing cars so easily in the future!" Feng Xiaoxiao nodded along.
"Exactly. Otherwise, five million really isn't even enough to get stuck between my teeth!" Wu Chengtian said, putting on quite the show of swagger.
"Oh, but five million is pocket change to Brother Chengtian, while to a poor girl like me, it's a fortune! Brother Chengtian, why don't you give that money to me? I'll go buy myself a nice car — how about that? It's not like you even care about the money anyway!" Feng Xiaoxiao said, perfectly serious.
"Huh?" Wu Chengtian's eyes went wide on the spot, and he froze! He hadn't expected Feng Xiaoxiao to actually ask him for money!
Sun Jingyan was driving up front. Hearing Feng Xiaoxiao's words, her hands trembled and the car nearly veered off course. She finally understood what Feng Xiaoxiao's earlier words had really meant — she'd been setting a trap for Wu Chengtian! She'd hoisted him up onto a pedestal, and now he couldn't climb down. If he refused to hand over the money, everything he'd said before would be exposed as empty boasting!
Sun Jingyan finally understood why Wei Zhao had acted so utterly indifferent about his girlfriend worshipping Wu Chengtian. It turned out Wei Zhao hadn't been indifferent at all — he'd simply had everything figured out from the start! He knew Feng Xiaoxiao didn't worship Wu Chengtian in the slightest; she was just looking to fleece him! RO
