Qu Ningning narrowed her eyes and grabbed Chen Yi’s arm to look at it again and again. Suddenly, she laughed, “Keep making fun of me! I just realized that you’re actually wearing branded clothes! Good heavens, it’s all luxury goods!”

After all, there were too many people at the airport just now. Qu Ningning didn’t even look closely at Chen Yi. Moreover, the first thing she saw was Chen Yi’s face, which had changed quite a lot.

Now that they had come out of the airport, Qu Ningning realized that, boy, Chen Yi’s clothes were not simple at all! They were all luxury goods!

Chen Yi, on the other hand, had a blank look on his face. Of course, he was faking it. “Ah? What brand is it? Are you talking about my clothes?”

Qu Ningning nodded. “Yes, isn’t this the one? Tsk tsk…” as she said that, she began to identify it. “Let’s see, Burberry’s shirt, Hermes belt, and the pants are Armani’s, right? Also…”

As she said that, Qu Ningning saw the sunglasses that Chen Yi had casually hung up. She reached out to grab them and caressed them. “Let me guess, the sunglasses are Louis Vuitton, right?”

The more Qu Ningning said excitedly, the more surprised and confused Chen Yi was. The woman suddenly asked in a low voice, “Big Cheng, tell your big sis how much you’ve earned from writing books! You can actually afford all these!”

Chen Yi stuck out his tongue at Qu Ningning’s sparkling and slightly hostile gaze. “Aiya, I can’t believe I didn’t manage to escape goddess Ningning’s sharp eyes.”

As he spoke, his voice suddenly softened. “I’ll tell you the truth. Actually, I don’t know much about the brand you mentioned. Also, my clothes are all fake!”

Eh? Fake? Chen Yi still looked like he was hiding something. He looked around, which made Qu Ningning a little suspicious. She looked at his things again. The texture didn’t seem to be fake. She was puzzled, “Really? This is also fake?”

Although it wasn’t right to lie, Chen Yi still pretended to be serious and said, “Yes, that’s right. There’s a commercial street in Yu City. Everyone knows it well. It looks like it’s full of brands, but the street is full of fake, high-quality imitations! And the price is really affordable!”

A certain someone who was talking nonsense nodded with a serious expression.

“So this outfit of yours?”

“It’s only about a hundred yuan!” Chen Yi was very serious.

Really? Just fakes? High-quality imitations? And it’s about a hundred yuan?

Qu Ningning reached out to touch Chen Yi’s clothes and felt the material of the so-called fakes, still in disbelief. “Really? This thing feels pretty good. It doesn’t feel fake at all. Could it be that the high-quality imitations shop has a conscience? It’s the same as the real thing!”

“It’s a high-quality imitation! If it’s not real, then it’s not a high-quality imitation,” Chen Yi explained forcefully. It seemed like this explanation made sense!

Qu Ningning was half-convinced and smiled, but suddenly, she said, “Alright, Big Cheng. Then… When we reach Yu City, when you have time, bring me to that commercial street for a walk. The quality of this high-quality imitation is really good. It can even be made to look fake! It makes me want to buy something to wear!”

Chen Yi nodded. “No problem. I’ll bring you there. I’ll bring you there! But… Don’t tell them my secret.”

Hearing that, Qu Ningning laughed happily. “Hahaha, I know, I know! It’s been three years since we last met at the class gathering. This gathering is just to show off! You guys want to compete in career achievements, but we women also want to compete in looks, skincare products, body shape and clothes!”

Hearing Qu Ningning’s words, Chen Yi also laughed out loud. Therefore, the two of them looked at each other and continued to giggle.

They laughed until they were almost out of breath. The two of them had walked quite a distance from the airport before Qu Ningning asked, “Didn’t you come to pick me up? Where did you park your car?”

Chen Yi said, “It’s just ahead. We’re almost there. When I came over, there were too many cars at the airport, so we could only park at a relatively far location.”

Qu Ningning nodded. The two of them continued to walk forward while chatting and laughing, approaching the place where Chen Yi had parked his car.

They were finally almost there. Chen Yi could even see his own car. However, he frowned, and his expression was slightly unhappy.

There was no other reason… in his field of vision, on the front of the Lycan Supercar, a couple was posing in front of his car and crazily taking pictures!

The woman was dressed in fancy clothes, her makeup was not exquisite, and her figure was a little out of shape. It was fine if it was just the woman – Chen Yi could still tolerate it.

But what about that man! Look at that ugly head, look at his big belly, look at that poor excuse for hands that were more like pork knuckles! He even touched Chen Yi’s beautiful jewel-encrusted headlights! F*ck, you son of a b*tch!

Fine, if the couple was just taking pictures of each other, go ahead, but what was all that touching for? It was fine if they were touching each other, but the two of them were sitting on his car! Extreme speechlessness! Were they planning to have sex on the bonnet of his car? As the selfies clicked away, Chen Yi thought sarcastically to himself, damn, this couple was really amazing!

Now look! The woman’s high heels were stepping on Chen Yi’s supercar, and they were even rubbing against each other!

Chen Yi felt his heart tremble. These high heels were also a weapon! If they really knocked against each other, what would happen if the car paint was scraped off?

It was very troublesome to maintain a car! Not to mention this kind of luxury sports car!

Moreover, there was no way to fix the colour of Lycan’s sports car in this country. If the paint was off, it would have to be sent back to the place of origin. The repair of the paint was estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands, or even millions. Adding the cost of the round trip, it was estimated that it would not be able to be maintained without at least four million! It was really expensive and a waste of money! Chen Yi couldn’t afford it even if he had the money now!

“Hey, Cheng, look!”

Qu Ningning seemed to have just realized the existence of this luxury car. She pulled on Chen Yi’s clothes and tugged at his sleeve a few times. She tilted her neck and pointed at Chen Yi’s supercar. “It’s a Lycan Supercar! The model is the same as the main character’s from Fast and Furious 7! So handsome!”

Qu Ningning was very excited. She seemed to know and pay more attention to some brands. Lycan was not as famous as Lamborghini or Bugatti, but Qu Ningning could tell at a glance!

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi asked, “You also like cars?”

Qu Ningning rolled her eyes. “Aren’t you talking nonsense? Who doesn’t like cars? ! I even know a few brands. Oh right, this is a real luxury car! It’s ranked in the top three! This Lycan Supercar is even rarer than Bugatti’s. Whoever sees it will be excited! When I was in the capital, I often saw Lamborghini, Rolls-Royce, and some Volkswagen, and Porsches. Bugatti, I saw it once. This Lycan supercar is worth it! Damn, it’s worth it to see it once in my lifetime! I heard that this car is worth nearly 100 million in China, I wouldn’t be able to afford a single headlight in my lifetime!”

Wouldn’t be able to afford a headlight in an entire lifetime? Chen Yi smiled and shook his head. “That’s an exaggeration.”

An exaggeration? Qu Ningning smiled. “However, this couple really don’t have any morals. They just take photos. They even touch the owner’s car. Aren’t they afraid that they’ll break it? They’ll be sued to oblivion and go bankrupt trying to compensate!”

The couple seemed to have heard something. They got out of the car reluctantly, holding their phones and smiling. Chen Yi thought about it and guessed that they would post it on their WeChat moments!

Seeing the man and woman leave in high spirits, Qu Ningning suddenly patted Chen Yi’s arm and said with a smile, “Why don’t we take a photo too? Let’s take a photo with the luxury car together!”

Huh? What the hell?
