But Bai Weiran always smiled in front of him. The all-purpose smile that office workers usually use fooled him, making it difficult for Cao Shuang to connect the young man in a suit with the masked man from that day.
Cao Shuang immediately shrank back, averting his gaze. A surge of fear made him no longer dare to glare at Qin Ning as he had before.
His anger dissipated by more than half.
Coming to his senses from his anger, he realized everyone was staring at him.
Cao Shuang broke out in even more cold sweat.
We should leave; we should get out of here immediately.
But he was not reconciled.
Unwilling to leave like that, they fled in disarray, like a drowning dog.
His pathetic self-esteem was shattered, yet he still tried to show off, a rebellious spirit rising within him.
His gaze shifted and he saw An Qin, who remained silent to the side.
It dawned on me.
That's right, he also has Anqin.
He can still step on her.
In any case, Anqin wouldn't resist; she didn't know how to resist or argue.
He immediately raised his hand, pointing at An Qin in the distance, facing Qin Ning and Bai Weiran.
“You will regret this,” he said, his voice heavy and hoarse.
“I’m telling you, everything I’m saying is true.”
"Whether you hit me or laugh at me, what I said is true, you've all been deceived."
"Before she met Miss Qin, there were many, many people you didn't know about!"
"I don't blame you, because you were also victims of deception!!"
Since he couldn't immediately direct his anger at the person he most wanted to vent on, he still had other targets to vent his frustrations on.
Qin Ning's delicate brows furrowed in anger, and she was about to retort when she felt a hand on her shoulder suddenly tighten, a gentle hint to stop her.
She looked at Bai Weiran in surprise, but Bai Weiran didn't look at her, only showing her his profile.
"What Mr. Cao said is not impossible."
Everyone: ………………?
Cao Shuang: …………! ?
Wait a minute, this starting stance looks familiar...?
Just now, it seemed that Miss Qin also used this method of first attacking with a forehand and then suddenly reversing?
Although everyone had already eaten a lot of gossip, there's no limit to how much gossip you can eat.
Reversal after reversal, holy crap, that's exciting!
Cao Shuang immediately sensed something was wrong—
Bai Weiran held up the wad of banknotes he had just received from Qin Ning, and waved it leisurely in front of him.
Everyone's eyes followed the swaying stack of money.
Cao Shuang had just been slapped in the face and developed PTSD. Now, seeing Bai Weiran's actions, he involuntarily shuddered.
Bai Weiran smiled.
“Mr. Cao, you seem like a smart man.”
"I like smart people because it's easy to talk to them and get along with them. Moreover, I believe that only smart people can make money. You will definitely be a big money-maker in the future, a billionaire. I can't sleep at night."
The first two flattering remarks left Cao Shuang wary, but unable to refute them.
Because that's what Cao Shuang really thought.
He thought himself clever, smarter than anyone else, so he could manipulate people's hearts and move among different people.
He also believed that he would make a lot of money sooner or later.
He's just waiting for the right opportunity; he'll achieve great things later in life.
Cao Shuang is very confident in himself.
But while he was being complimented, he immediately felt uncomfortable.
Who do you think you are, and what gives you the right to praise me in a way that is superior to me?
In fact, Bai Weiran's tone was neither sarcastic nor cold, and there was no hint of sarcasm in it.
But the speaker may not mean anything by it, but the listener may take it to heart; this is generally true.
Bai Weiran saw his expression change instantly but didn't care, and continued speaking slowly.
"So, Mr. Cao, do you agree with the principle that intelligent people should understand more comprehensively and gain more knowledge?"
"........."
Cao Shuang naturally agreed, but he felt something was off, so he remained silent.
Bai Weiran then smiled and commented, "It seems you've tacitly agreed."
Cao Shuang couldn't stand it anymore; this slow, roundabout way of going around in circles—
He absolutely loathed it.
He was already disgusted by what that woman named Qin Ning had done.
Bai Weiran acted this way in front of him out of a competitive spirit; he couldn't stand seeing others do well. The well-dressed young man standing in front of him made him feel even more disgusted by his inferiority complex.
"What does what you're saying have to do with me talking about An Qin?" he interrupted coldly.
"Let's stick to the facts, sir. I think you're not very bright. You can't even grasp the main point. This isn't the time to discuss whether I'm smart or not, but rather her—" He pointed at An Qin.
"She has character flaws!"
Bai Weiran chuckled.
"Yes, it's wrong. Of course it's very important. Don't worry, I know you're anxious, but listen to me, don't rush."
"Since you acknowledge that intelligent people in this world should know more and gain more knowledge, this, in turn, means that you acknowledge that people with higher achievements are better than you."
Bai Weiran was still smiling when, to everyone's astonishment, the stack of banknotes in his hand floated up and drifted between him and Cao Shuang.
At the same time, the thick stack of banknotes scattered around Anqin's feet also moved without any wind.
An invisible airflow carried the banknotes up, spiraling forward and forming an astonishing banknote tornado in the room, leaving everyone staring wide-eyed in disbelief.
"So, we who possess so much wealth, who are many times better than you, also possess many times more intelligence than you."
Qin Ning understood completely, and she was the first to laugh.
Brother Weiran is a bit mischievous.
“We have plenty of money and intelligence. Who is she? Do we need someone like you, who is inferior to us in every way, to remind us?”
"You...dare...to...know? Who do you think you are?"
The last few words were cold and indifferent, yet straight and lofty.
A person who likes to measure others by their material possessions, likes to categorize people into different classes, and thinks they are superior.
So, just enjoy the fact that you're looked down upon!
If you don't treat someone like a human being, then don't treat them like one at all!
Chapter Thirty-Three: Sunshine Shines on the Heart
In the crowd, a little boy exclaimed and raised his hand, pointing to the tornado of banknotes swirling in the lobby.
"Mom, a miracle has happened—"
Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was covered, his small face and his eyes darting around.
His mother, clutching his hand, stared at the scene before her, too afraid to even breathe.
"Don't talk, just watch."
This was also the unanimous sentiment of everyone present.
Don't speak, don't breathe, just watch.
Miracles aside, there's money, money, money.
Miracles and money are both tempting, but the combination of the two is even more outrageous, eye-catching, and captivating.
Beside the howling tornado of banknotes was Cao Shuang's face, swollen like a pig's head, filled with disbelief, shame, and indignation.
Qin Ning stood beside Bai Weiran, holding his hand, her cat-like eyes darting around, and she covered her mouth with a smile.
If Qin Ning's previous response to Cao Shuang was merely a rebuttal to An Qin's alleged scandalous remarks...
That really hurt Bai Weiran.
A direct attack was launched against Cao Shuang personally.
I don't care what cards are on the table, I'll activate a Quick-Play Spell Card to deal direct damage to the player's own life points.
Qin Ning looked smug, as if she had won a battle. She pressed her face against Bai Weiran's arm, rubbed it hard, and chuckled to herself.
My Weiran brother is indeed my Weiran brother! He's amazing!
Cao Shuang's anger at being humiliated overwhelmed his reason, and he roared out.
"What gives you the right?!"
"Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to say that?"
"Is having money all that great? Does having money prove your worth? Let me tell you, there's more to life than just money..."
His mouth was suddenly shut again, his upper and lower lips were stuck together, and he could only let out muffled growls from his throat.
He was filled with impotent rage and could only watch as Bai Weiran stood before him, a leisurely smile on his face.
