Chapter 622 622: Someone You Can't Afford to Offend!
The boy was discontent.
In his eyes, aside from not being very handsome, he was sure he far surpassed Qin Heng in every other aspect, whether it was family background or schooling!
But these two girls only saw his looks!
Handsome! Is it really that important?
He didn't think so.
The education he'd received since childhood had made it crystal clear to him that for a man, power and money were paramount!
Just a face? Utterly useless!
Kid, just you wait. When we get to Sun Gazing Peak, I'll show you what despair is! The boy glared gloomily at Qin Heng beside him.
"Young man, I've added you! I've added you!"
At this moment, Ai Su Su had approached Qin Heng. Then, her willow-like brows furrowed slightly. She looked at the boy sitting next to Qin Heng and said, "Excuse me, sir, could you please stand up for a moment? I'd like to sit with this young man."
The boy's face immediately turned ashen with anger. Through gritted teeth, he said, "No!"
"Oh, okay. Sorry then." Ai Su Su sat back down, looking somewhat dejected. She said to Qin Heng, "Young man, did you receive the notification? Did you get the message?"
"I'm starting to suspect you're an online seller," Qin Heng said with a smile. He nonchalantly took out his Xiaomi 8 smartphone, tapped to accept, and said, "Done."
Of course, the online seller comment was just a joke. A girl as attractive as Ai Su Su obviously didn't need to be an online seller. Besides, the traditional Chinese dress she was wearing was clearly very high-end, costing at least sixty or seventy thousand yuan to purchase.
"Young man, you're really funny."
Ai Su Su giggled as she opened WeChat on her phone. She found Qin Heng's profile picture, nodded with satisfaction, and then said to him, "Young man, you're so handsome. Are you interested in traditional Chinese Hanfu?"
She still had an ulterior motive.
However, the young girl's thoughts were very simple. She purely thought that Qin Heng, being tall and handsome, would definitely look great in Hanfu.
"I'm a history major, and I've also studied a bit about traditional Chinese Hanfu culture," Qin Heng said with a smile. At only nineteen, he naturally didn't mind chatting with a pretty, innocent, and lively girl.
The other boy seethed with envy beside them. Ai Su Su was exactly his type. He had waited a long time while queuing earlier just to get on the same cable car as her.
But then, out of nowhere, a Cheng Yaojin showed up!
Damn it! Really, damn it!
Just because you're handsome and tall, you think you're so great?!
Wait until we get to Sun Gazing Peak!
I'll see how I'll mess you up then!
The boy seethed internally!
He had come to loathe Qin Heng to the core!
Especially when he saw Ai Su Su captivated and giggling at Qin Heng's words, his hatred intensified!
Kid, you've got guts, daring to compete with me, Fang Tianci, for a woman! You're courting death!
「...」
CLANG!
The cable car arrived at the summit of Sun Gazing Peak, and tourists from each car began to disembark.
Qin Heng, Ai Su Su, and the ponytailed girl walked together. From their earlier conversation, he had learned the other girl's name was Mo Qing. Both she and Ai Su Su were freshmen at Longxi Normal University.
Ai Su Su stayed quite close to Qin Heng. Her natural sensitivity made her subconsciously drawn to him because he emanated a comforting, natural aura. This was the unique aura of a Cultivator who had achieved a certain level of mastery.
"Qin Heng, it's such a pity you're not studying in Xijing," Ai Su Su sighed softly. "If you were in Xijing City, we could wear Hanfu together to promote our traditional culture."
"It is quite a shame," Mo Qing chimed in with a smile. "If you were studying in Xijing, I bet with just a little effort, you could win Su Su over."
"Qingqing! You're talking nonsense!" Ai Su Su's face turned red.
Indeed, she was quite fond of Qin Heng. However, it was mostly an appreciation for his looks, height, and the natural, approachable aura he exuded. As for a romantic relationship, she hadn't really considered it, but she wasn't entirely opposed to the idea either.
Fang Tianci followed behind them, his face grim and his fists clenched tightly. His gaze, fixed on Qin Heng, was filled with malice.
Just then, two tall men in black approached Fang Tianci. They bowed respectfully and said, "Young Master, you've arrived. We've selected the best room for you. Please come with us."
"Alright, I understand." Fang Tianci waved his hand dismissively, his expression haughty. He smiled and called out to Ai Su Su and Mo Qing, who weren't far away, "Ladies, interested in visiting the hotel my family owns?"
He then pointed to a luxurious, traditional-style hotel in the distance—the Jinguang Hotel.
The moment Fang Tianci said this, the surrounding tourists erupted in a buzz.
"Damn! A genuine rich second-generation heir!"
"The Jinguang Hotel is really his family's? It's the most upscale hotel on Sun Gazing Peak!"
"I heard even the cheapest room costs 10,000 yuan a night, and the most expensive one is 300,000 yuan!"
Many people gasped in amazement. They all looked at Fang Tianci with great surprise. Quite a few young women even had stars in their eyes, clearly scheming how to get close to him.
However, Ai Su Su and Mo Qing acted as if they hadn't heard a thing, completely indifferent.
"Qin Heng, maybe I should add your WeChat too," Mo Qing said to Qin Heng with a smile. "qinhuangZL, right? I've added you. I need to keep an eye on you, so you don't secretly whisk away our Su Su."
"Qingqing!" Ai Su Su blushed and stomped her foot, though she didn't seem to mind Mo Qing's teasing too much.
Clearly, when it came to girls, a tall and handsome guy like Qin Heng naturally had certain privileges and easily attracted their favorable attention.
"Do you only care about looks?!"
Fang Tianci was thoroughly enraged. He practically roared as he approached Ai Su Su and Mo Qing. Pointing at Qin Heng, he snarled through gritted teeth, "What's so good about this loser?! So he's a bit taller and more handsome! What else is he?! Do you even know who I am?!"
His roar startled both Ai Su Su and Mo Qing. They had, of course, noticed Fang Tianci's earlier advances but, having no interest, had chosen to ignore him to avoid unnecessary complications. Usually, in such situations, a guy would back off to avoid making a fool of himself.
But unexpectedly, Fang Tianci had exploded with such intense anger.
Ai Su Su, being the gentle type, was momentarily stunned by the situation and instinctively hid behind Mo Qing and Qin Heng.
Mo Qing, however, had a more straightforward personality. She quickly recovered and retorted to Fang Tianci, "Who you are has nothing to do with us! What right do you have to yell at us or badmouth Qin Heng?!"
"Because I'm someone you can't afford to provoke!" Fang Tianci's chin tilted up slightly. He glanced around and sneered, "Nearly ninety percent of the businesses here on Sun Gazing Peak belong to the Fangs! Even the very floor tile you're standing on belongs to the Fangs, understand?! Believe it or not, with a single word from me, you'll have no place to stand on Sun Gazing Peak!"
"How can you be so overbearing!" Ai Su Su pouted, her face full of dissatisfaction. "That's too tyrannical!"
"Tyrannical? This is my family's territory. I can do whatever I want here!"
Fang Tianci sneered and then turned to Qin Heng. "Loser, you must have eaten a bear's heart and a leopard's gall! How dare you compete with me for a woman? Are you looking for death? Get over here and kneel! I'll make you understand the consequences of offending someone you can't afford to provoke!"
