88 A Little High

Chapter 88: A Little Overwhelmed

Zhang Wei and the others laughed out loud. They had never seen anyone so good at pretending.

They were all classmates. Who didn’t know that Chen Che was poor?

When he was in school, Chen Che was famous for being poor.

!!

A hint of mockery flashed in Lin Jian’s eyes.

“Chen Che, in that case, this round is on you. I’ll arrange the next round.”

Lin Xi wanted to go forward and say something.

Chen Che patted Lin Xi’s back and comforted her.

“Little Jian, this meal is on me. I’ll decide the next round?”

Lin Jian frowned, but he quickly relaxed.

Chen Che was poor and had never been to any good places.

Thinking of this, Lin Jian smiled and nodded.

“No problem. Do you think I can’t afford it?”

Chen Che held Lin Xi’s hand and strode out with Zeng Zhi.

Lin Jian and the others followed behind, wanting to see how Chen Che would pay.

After all, he had spent millions tonight, and Lin Jian did not have that much money.

When the receptionist saw Chen Che coming over, she immediately stood up.

This was the most respected client of the day.

“Hello, sir. Room 888 costs 8.23 million this time.”

Everyone was shocked when they heard that there was so much money.

Lin Jian smiled proudly. He wanted to see what Chen Che would do.

The people in the live-stream discussed in shock.

[I thought it was very expensive, but I didn’t expect it to be so expensive.]

[Is this the life of a rich person?]

[I, Tian Qiang, am envious!]

Chen Che calmly took out his bank card and handed it over.

When Lin Jian saw this scene, he recalled the scene of buying a house yesterday.

Wasn’t this a reenactment of the scene?

Lin Jian did not dare to continue mocking him. After all, he and Chen Che ate together.

If Chen Che could not pay, Lin Jian and the others would not be able to escape.

Although Lin Jian was a rich second-generation heir, he only had $100,000 in pocket money every month.

Just as the receptionist was about to swipe the card, a voice sounded.

“Don’t swipe Mr. Chen’s card. I’ll settle the bill.”

Boss Ji ran over anxiously and took out his bank card to hand it to the receptionist.

Boss Ji had put together $10 million.

In Boss Ji’s heart, Chen Che must be the son of a mysterious family. Otherwise, how could he have so much money?

If he did not please Chen Che now, it would be as easy as playing for Chen Che to deal with him.

Lin Jian looked at Boss Ji in shock.

Yesterday, the two of them were still humiliating Chen Che together. Why had they become like this?

“Boss Ji, what’s wrong?”

“Did Chen Che, this pauper, threaten you?”

Boss Ji cursed Lin Jian in his heart for being an idiot. He actually did not know Chen Che’s identity after so many years.

However, he did not dare to say that. After all, the Lin family was not someone Boss Ji could offend.

Boss Ji revealed a smile that was uglier than crying.

“Boss Lin, Mr. Chen did not threaten. Anyway… I’m willing.”

Those mysterious families did not like to expose their identities.

Lin Jian was at a loss when he heard Boss Ji’s words.

No matter how he looked at it, Boss Ji seemed to be threatened.

However, Chen Che was just a poor man. What ability did he have to threaten Boss Ji?

Chen Che took Boss Ji’s bank card back.

“Little Ji, that’s not all, right?”

When Boss Ji heard Chen Che’s words, he almost knelt on the ground.

Boss Ji looked at Chen Che with a long face.

...

“Mr. Chen, please forgive me for not recognizing you.”

“I’m Little Ji. Please let me go.”

When the netizens in the live-stream heard this, they spammed the comments crazily.

[Hahaha, he actually called himself Little Ji?]

[Money is indeed omnipotent.]

[If you knew this would happen, you wouldn’t have done it in the first place!]

Although Lin Xi didn’t know what had happened, her heart softened when she saw Boss Ji’s expression.

“Chen Che, why don’t you forgive him?”

When Chen Che heard Lin Xi’s words, he could only nod.

“In that case, Little Ji, forget it this time. Be careful in the future.”

...

With that, Chen Che threw the bank card to Boss Ji.

Boss Ji took the bank card and handed it to the receptionist gratefully.

“Quick, swipe this card.”

The receptionist respectfully returned Chen Che’s bank card and paid with Boss Ji’s bank card.

Lin Jian gritted his teeth. He could not understand why Boss Ji was suddenly like this.

Chen Che had really benefited.

After Boss Ji paid, he quickly left.

Chen Che looked at Lin Jian.

“Little Jian, I’ve already paid for the meal. So, it’s your turn for the next round, right?”

Lin Jian did not speak. Zhang Wei stood up and shouted.

“Chen Che, why are you so arrogant? You didn’t pay for it.”

“Who knows if you threatened someone else?”

When everyone heard Zhang Wei’s words, they all agreed.

“That’s right. In that case, why should Lin Jian treat us to the next round?”

“Chen Che, it’s not easy for us to gather. Why don’t you and Lin Jian split it equally?”

“What do you mean by half? Chen Che is so rich. How can he lack this bit of money?!”

When Zeng Zhi heard everyone’s words, he could not help but look at Zhang Wei and the others in disgust.

“What are you talking about? What are you talking about?”

“Why isn’t this Chen Che’s treat? If it’s not Chen Che, who else would have paid for you?”

When everyone heard this, they felt a little awkward.

Lin Jian did not care. In any case, Chen Che, who was poor, would not go to a good place.

Everyone was full now. Even if it was the second round, they would not spend much.

Lin Jian waved his hand and looked at Chen Che indifferently.

“It’s fine. It’s just a treat.”

“I, Lin Jian, don’t lack this bit of money.”

Zhang Wei and the others immediately began to curry favor.

“As expected of Boss Lin. Look at this boldness.”

“That’s right. He’s not as stingy as that poor Chen Che who spends a little money.”

Chen Che sneered when he heard everyone’s words.

He hoped that when the time came, this group of people would still be able to laugh like this.

Chen Che stood in front of Lin Jian.

“Little Jian, didn’t you say that I would pick a place?”

Lin Jian nodded generously.

A hint of cunning flashed in Chen Che’s eyes and a smile appeared on his lips.

“I heard that this Jade Sun Hall also has a private room for singing. Let’s continue here.”

When Lin Jian heard this, his expression immediately turned ugly.

However, when he thought about how everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Lin Jian did not care too much.

Everyone was brought to the KTV private room upstairs. Lin Jian asked the waiter to serve fruit platters and beer.

Chen Che stopped the waiter and looked at Lin Jian.

“Little Jian, can I order something too?”

Lin Jian nodded indifferently. What he could order here was nothing more than wine.

After obtaining Lin Jian’s agreement, Chen Che smiled and spoke to the waiter.

“You’ve seen it all. Remember this person. Look for him when it’s time to pay the bill.”

The waiter looked at Chen Che in disdain. He had seen many freeloaders, but this was the first time he had seen such a shameless person. The waiter said respectfully.

“Yes, sir. I’ve memorized it. May I ask if there’s anything else you need?”

Chen Che smiled playfully.

“Romanee Conti, one bottle each. Open them all and send them over!”
