"I didn't realize you were a hidden rich kid! I'm so envious!"
Wang Qian smiled and said, "I have something to do, so I'll be going now. Goodbye!"
After saying that, he ignored Lin Chao's surprised look and turned to leave.
Shen Chong was indeed his high school classmate.
but,
Their relationship wasn't as good as it seemed on the surface.
Shen Chong's ostentatious display of wealth just now was merely a way of indirectly competing with him on his current net worth.
Sure enough, as soon as he turned around, Shen Chong's voice came from behind him, "Wang Qian, it's rare to run into you, why don't we have a meal together?"
Before Wang Qian could answer, he interjected, "No refusing, this meal is on me!"
Wang Qian frowned.
They've started pestering me relentlessly?
After a moment's hesitation, he miraculously nodded, "Okay, thanks in advance!"
"Haha, it's rare to see classmates again, so it's my treat today!"
Upon seeing Wang Qian agree, a fervent anticipation immediately rose in Shen Chong's eyes.
During high school, Wang Qian became a source of psychological trauma for him, and he has been with him for several years, constantly influencing every decision he makes in his life.
He thought he would live in Wang Qian's shadow for the rest of his life.
Unexpectedly,
Fate had the audacity to let him meet Wang Qian here, giving him a chance to make up for his regrets.
He must seize this opportunity to thoroughly humiliate Wang Qian, eradicate his long-standing psychological trauma, and regain his confidence.
In high school, he had excellent grades and was considered a good student.
He doesn't know when it started, but he fell in love and became madly infatuated with Yao Wenlan, the school beauty at the time.
Yao Wenlan is so beautiful!
She was so beautiful that he usually dared not look directly at her, as if looking at her even for a second would be an unforgivable desecration.
However, no matter how hard he tried, Yao Wenlan didn't even glance at him.
After countless moments of disappointment and confusion, he decided to make a change.
This change is not about learning, but about one's appearance.
He felt that he was dressed too tackyly. Maybe if he dressed up properly, fixed his hair, and dressed more elegantly, he could stand out and attract Yao Wenlan's attention.
So from that time on, he began stealing money from his parents to buy designer clothes, wear expensive watches, and imitate the behavior of celebrities.
Not long after, he successfully transformed his career.
He spends most of his time and energy every day on how to act cool and stylish, while his studies are completely forgotten.
His parents were too busy with their business to care about him at all.
Even if he spends money extravagantly, as long as he doesn't break the law, no one will question him.
So he went further and further down this path.
He felt he was attractive enough after successfully attracting the attention of countless girls in the school.
One day, he found a rare opportunity to confess his feelings to Yao Wenlan, the school beauty, alone.
In order to impress Yao Wenlan, he ordered a bouquet of roses in advance, wore designer clothes, and spent several hours styling his hair.
With everything prepared, he mustered his courage, took the bouquet of flowers, and confessed his feelings to Yao Wenlan.
However, to his utter despair, when he presented the roses, Yao Wenlan turned and walked away.
Meanwhile, Yao Wenlan's close friends pointed and whispered mockingly at her from the sidelines, as if she were watching a clown.
He said, "Don't you even know who you are? How dare you confess your feelings to the school beauty?"
At that moment, he felt his face burning hot, and he wished he could disappear into a crack and never have to come out to see anyone again.
From then on, he dared not approach Yao Wenlan even more.
His inferiority complex reached an unprecedented level.
However, just when he thought Yao Wenlan was a very aloof person who no boy could sway, something happened that surprised him greatly.
One day, just before high school graduation, Yao Wenlan unexpectedly confessed her feelings to Wang Qian in front of many classmates.
Seeing Yao Wenlan standing in front of Wang Qian, her face flushed and full of expectation, he felt as if he had fallen into an endless abyss, and the whole world seemed to lose its color at that moment.
Everything is so ridiculous and pathetic!
There was a time when he went to great lengths to dress himself up in order to attract Yao Wenlan's attention.
What she got in return was Yao Wenlan's disdain for everything and the ridicule of others.
Now, things have gotten out of hand. Yao Wenlan, whom he always considered aloof and unapproachable, has actually taken the initiative to confess her feelings to another boy whom he didn't even respect.
What's this?
Who does he think he is?
But what angered him even more was yet to come.
For Yao Wenlan, the school beauty of their high school, to take the initiative to confess her feelings to a boy was already an unprecedented thing.
As a result, Wang Qian actually refused.
At the time, this caused an uproar throughout the entire school.
The boys all thought Wang Qian was too pretentious.
The girls thought Wang Qian was very classy and had a strong sense of principles.
When the college entrance exam came, everyone was studying hard, but he was the only one who was trapped in feelings of inferiority and sadness every day.
As a result, many of his classmates, including Wang Qian, were later admitted to good universities.
He was the only one who did terribly on the exam and ultimately nothing came of it.
His parents had originally planned to let him repeat a year of high school, but in despair, he chose to give up, stay at home and live off his parents, making a living by collecting rent.
As time went by, he gradually emerged from the shadows, and the deep wounds he had suffered back then slowly faded with the passage of time.
He then realized that he was born to be superior to countless others.
