Chapter 621: Really Too Nasty (Fourth Update)
Chapter 621: Really Too Nasty (Fourth Update)
Who exactly is this young man? He’s just too exaggerated, incredibly formidable. How could there be such an impressive young man?
Present were distinguished individuals from various sectors of H Country and chancellors from renowned universities around the world, along with numerous experts and scholars. Not a single person could believe what was happening before their eyes, because this young man was just too miraculous...
Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Cui Jinhao was clearly skeptical. So he took the crown in hand and examined it closely, only to indeed find a subtle difference in the internal patterns. He immediately took out his phone, went online, and searched for the crests of the Spanish Mario Family and the Louis XIV Family as mentioned by Lin Feng. This inspection was critical, for after looking it over, he stood there utterly dumbfounded with the crown in hand!
The reason was clear; the internal pattern of the crown he held matched exactly with that of the Mario Family’s crest, whereas, with the Louis XIV Family’s crest, there were differences in the length in two places and some variations in the curvature. At first glance, no one could distinguish between the two family crests as they were extremely similar. Without keen observation, one would not notice the differences at all.
So it turned out that the crown he held was definitely not the crown Louis XIV had gifted to Princess Maria. Then... that meant everything today had been his own doing, all because he had produced what he thought was the genuine crown, which had led to such a tremendous loss of face for him today. Thinking about this, Cui Jinhao’s face turned completely black...
"Since this item is a fake, then there’s no reason for it to exist anymore! Snap..." Looking at the crown in his hands, Cui Jinhao was beyond angry; it was all because of this crown that he had been ridiculed by Lin Feng today, and all because of this crown, that he, the heir to the Six Stars Group, had faced such humiliation...
With this thought, Cui Jinhao could no longer restrain himself. His previous words, like arrows shot forth without the possibility of recall, and considering the crown was the root cause of all troubles, he no longer dared face the crowd in the venue. In his immense anger, he hurled the crown forcefully towards the ground, then kicked it twice viciously, before swiftly leaving the venue.
At this moment, Cui Jinhao’s complexion had turned greenish, his usual calm and collected demeanor gone. The thought of losing 68 million US dollars made him absolutely fume with rage. How could he swallow such an insult? That was 68 million US dollars! Though it wouldn’t cause him any financial ruin, it was undeniably a painful loss. What worried him more was whether this incident would lead to negative press. If something did happen, his family would inevitably have thoughts about it, which would not bode well...
"Lin Feng, everything tonight is thanks to you. If I don’t take you down, then I’m not Cui Jinhao!" Cui Jinhao, holding back his rage from erupting, yelled furiously as soon as he got into his car, his face becoming even more hideously twisted!
Cui Jinhao had now completely lost his mind, one could say driven mad by Lin Feng. His perfect plans had been entirely overturned by Lin Feng alone, not only failing to show off but also getting trampled on fiercely by Lin Feng. He simply couldn’t bear such humiliation. If Lin Feng hadn’t shown up tonight, how perfect it would have been. Everything was caused by Lin Feng. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn’t have hesitated to make Lin Feng disappear from this world forever. Thinking this, Cui Jinhao wished he could kill Lin Feng himself to appease the hatred in his heart!
Pressing the accelerator, his luxury sports car shot out like an arrow, emitting a deafening roar as it vanished from the parking area...
Meanwhile, Lin Feng and his two companions sat inside their car, brimming with joy.
"Boss, you were just too cool just now. You should have seen Cui Jinhao’s face turning green! Awesome, just awesome!" Huang Shi, sitting in the passenger seat, recounted the events with vivid enthusiasm. Seeing Cui Jinhao’s expression earlier had brought him immense satisfaction. He had long wanted to teach that arrogant person a lesson, and finally got the chance to step on him, feeling indescribably refreshed!
"He probably won’t be that easy to deal with, but those 68 million US dollars are definitely enough to pain his heart!" Lin Feng said nonchalantly, not bothered by the recent events. If Cui Jinhao hadn’t provoked matters tonight, none of this would have happened. The situation tonight was purely Cui Jinhao’s own fault and no one else’s. Moreover, in Lin Feng’s presence, Cui Jinhao had pursued Ding Wan’er, so how could he, as her fiancé, just let it go?
"Lin Feng, did you guys plan this from the beginning to deal with Cui Jinhao at tonight’s auction?" Ding Wan’er asked with a gleeful smile, watching Lin Feng and Huang Shi. To be honest, seeing Cui Jinhao turn a proper auction into such a mess made her feel somewhat guilty. However, she then reconsidered, realizing that strong measures were necessary given Cui Jinhao’s persistent harassment. Without taking a hard stand, Cui Jinhao would certainly not stop, and only by doing so could they put an end to the matter.
Thinking of this, Ding Wan’er felt at ease. If nothing unexpected happened, Cui Jinhao, having lost face in front of so many people, should stop pestering her from now on. That was exactly the peaceful life she desired. As long as Lin Feng was by her side, nothing else mattered...
"Sister-in-law, Boss and I discussed this evening that if Cui Jinhao played fair, we’d let it slide. But if he tried any tricks, we’d mess up his game and make him bleed! We never expected that a crown would turn up as an auction item, obviously aimed at you, Sister-in-law. That’s why I followed Boss’s order to go for the kill and bid like crazy!"
As expected, he really wanted the item and raised the price sky-high. Honestly, even I got a bit nervous at the end—that price was really too high. But I trusted Boss and resolutely did as he had planned, so in the end, Cui Jinhao was backed into a corner with no way down! Hahaha..."
Huang Shi thought about how he followed Boss’s plan in the evening, tormenting Cui Jinhao to death and finally bidding the crown up to an exorbitant 68 million US dollars. It pained Cui Jinhao greatly, and Huang Shi couldn’t help but explode with triumphant laughter.
"You guys are really bad, but it’s good this way, cutting off Cui Jinhao’s hopes completely. But how were you so sure Cui Jinhao would stick with it and not give up halfway? If he had given up, spending so much money on a crown would’ve been too much, and Huang Shi probably wouldn’t have had enough money either, right?" Ding Wan’er laughed behind her hand. Cui Jinhao really was quite embarrassed a moment ago, completely outwitted by Lin Feng and Huang Shi, unable to utter a single word in defense. That silent hit with a crown worth 68 million US dollars was too precious!
Yet, in the blink of an eye, Ding Wan’er grew even more curious. How were Lin Feng and Huang Shi so sure that Cui Jinhao wouldn’t give up halfway? This... what was going on here? By any normal reasoning, such a situation shouldn’t have occurred today.
"Actually, it’s quite simple. Cui Jinhao is the heir of the Six Stars Group. In such a setting, if he started bidding, he had to win the auction. What’s more, since he wanted to give you that crown, he couldn’t afford to give up halfway. Doing so would be too humiliating for him, and he wouldn’t know how to face you. If he couldn’t even secure a single item, wouldn’t you think even less of him? So, no matter what, he had to grit his teeth and secure that crown."
"Cui Jinhao knew very well that if he quit halfway, Huang Shi might win the crown. If that happened, tonight’s venue arrangements that he had made would all go to waste, dressing us up instead. He’s no fool, so he had no choice but to play by my rules. At the end, when I saw he really couldn’t take it anymore, I signaled Huang Shi to let go," Lin Feng explained to Ding Wan’er in detail. Confident in his grasp of human nature, it was precisely by exploiting this aspect of Cui Jinhao that Lin Feng left him with no recourse.
"Sister-in-law, that last phone call was from Boss, signaling that it was time to back off. This was a tactic we had conspired on early on. You have no idea how happy I am now. Remembering how Cui Jinhao started off acting all high and mighty, and then seeing his downfall just now—hilarious, totally hilarious, haha..." Huang Shi couldn’t help but add after hearing Lin Feng’s words, reminiscing about the sheer delight of leaving the proud heir of the Six Stars Group at a loss for words.
"You guys are really too bad, but what you did, I really like it. We’ve finally shaken off Cui Jinhao, and I feel so much more relaxed now," Ding Wan’er gently scolded Lin Feng, but her tone didn’t carry even a hint of anger. Deep down, she had completely eased up, thrilled at the thought of no longer being harassed by Cui Jinhao.
"Boss, sister-in-law, how about we find a place and celebrate with a drink?" Huang Shi was overjoyed and suggested going out for drinks to celebrate the evening’s victory—a thought that was just too exhilarating!
"Forget about drinking. Wan’er and I will just take a stroll. You go have fun on your own," Lin Feng thought for a moment and turned down the idea of drinking. He wanted to spend some time with Ding Wan’er, and since they had come to South Korea together after so long, he felt he should properly accompany Ding Wan’er for a walk.
"Alright then, just drop me off up ahead. It’s no fun drinking alone. I’ll take a walk myself, check out Shoucheng," Huang Shi immediately understood that Boss and the sister-in-law wanted to spend time alone and it wouldn’t be right for him to get in the way. Best to leave, but with no other plans and no interest in drinking alone, he suddenly felt a whim to go shopping and mull over buying some interesting, characteristic gifts to take back for the other sisters-in-law.
"Sounds good, pull over here," Lin Feng directed the driver to stop at the side, let Huang Shi out, and then sped away...
