“Luo Haiyang, you drove away a major customer, causing losses to the dealership and potentially tarnishing its reputation. Customers like him will undoubtedly mention this incident when discussing car purchases in the future. Who knows how many people might be indirectly affected by this? His friends and their friends, even if they consider buying a Porsche, may choose other dealerships instead of ours. This loss is immeasurable. Your annual bonuses, including quarterly and year-end bonuses, are canceled, and you’ll receive public criticism. Furthermore, I will report this incident to Porsche’s headquarters in Drache. You’ll have to deal with the consequences.” said the manager and he went back to his office.

Luo Haiyang’s face turned pale. The punishment was undoubtedly severe. In his position as a supervisor, the quarterly and year-end bonuses were substantial, amounting to around three hundred thousand yuan annually. Moreover, facing public criticism would be a humiliation he couldn’t easily bear. He could already imagine the ridicule he would face from his colleagues behind his back.

Even worse, the manager’s report to Porsche’s Drache headquarters might lead to his termination. In this line of work, getting fired for such a reason would make it nearly impossible to find another job. For someone in middle age, this was catastrophic news.

All of this happened because of Yang Jingsheng. He had been so confident that Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin had no money that they were merely taking pictures to show off on social media. That’s why Luo Haiyang had driven them away.

Thinking of that, Luo Haiyang shot a resentful look at Yang Jingsheng. His eyes were filled with bitterness.

Yang Jingsheng felt the intensity of that gaze and asked, “Haiyang, why are you looking at me like that? It’s time to go for lunch, right?”

“Lunch? To hell with your lunch?” Luo Haiyang couldn’t hold back his anger anymore and swore directly.

“Haiyang, I admit I made a mistake, but I truly had no idea what they were up to. Based on what I knew about them, they didn’t have money.” Yang Jingsheng explained. He had a bitter expression. He genuinely couldn’t fathom how Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin could afford such an expensive car. Even he couldn’t do it. The car he drove was an Audi A4 that cost him three hundred thousand and paid by loan.

“You knew? What do you know? I think you don’t know anything about them. If he doesn’t have the money, how could he pay for the Maserati Quattroporte in full?” Luo Haiyang cursed once again.

“I didn’t know what went wrong, and now it’s too late to change it. I promise I’ll find out what happened. Haiyang, let’s just go eat,” Yang Jingsheng suggested.

“You still cared about eating at this moment? Didn’t you hear my punishment from my manager? Do you think I have the appetite to eat?” Luo Haiyang stared at Yang Jingsheng and said coldly.

“Haiyang, regardless of what happened, we still need to eat, right?” Yang Jingsheng chuckled awkwardly, then added, “But if you’re not in the mood, we can eat later. I’ll treat you next time. How about that? Now, can we go to the bank? Can you transfer the money to me?”

“F*ck you, I’m about to lose my job because of you, and you still have the f*cking nerve to ask me to transfer money?” Luo Haiyang cursed.

Since it was like this, Luo Haiyang naturally couldn’t lend money to Yang Jingsheng. It was good enough that he didn’t ask Yang Jingsheng for compensation.

“Haiyang, I admit that I was wrong in this matter, but you said that I made you lose your job. Isn’t it a little too much to scold me like this?” Yang Jingsheng’s face turned ugly as he said that.

It seemed that it was impossible to borrow money, so Yang Jingsheng could not hold it in any longer.

“This is too much?” Luo Haiyang sneered and kicked Yang Jingsheng to the ground. Yang Jingsheng rolled a few times before he stopped.

“Damn it, Luo Haiyang, you’ve gone mad!” Yang Jingsheng got back up, furious. He wanted to confront Luo Haiyang physically but realized it was a bad idea. Luo Haiyang was much larger, and Yang Jingsheng had been partying too much lately. His body wasn’t in the best shape for a fight.

“Get lost! From today onwards, I’m not your friend!” Yang Jingsheng yelled.

A friend like Yang Jingsheng had caused Luo Haiyang so much trouble. Whether he would keep his job or not remained uncertain. Luo Haiyang couldn’t afford to be friends with someone like Yang Jingsheng.

“Damn it, all this fuss over such a minor incident, and you’re ending our friendship?” Yang Jingsheng sneered, “Fine, let me make this clear. You think I’m the one who harmed you, but have you ever considered if you were also at fault? In fact, you probably thought they couldn’t afford a car. Underestimating them, you followed my lead and kicked them out. If you treated them like any other customer, none of this would have happened. I admit I was wrong, but your biggest mistake was listening to me. You bear the most significant responsibility. You can’t blame others.”

Although Yang Jingsheng was no longer friends with Luo Haiyang, he decided to speak his mind. After all, he had nothing to lose now. Of course, he wasn’t being unreasonable. After all, his words were only an inducement. The final decision was still on Luo Haiyang.

Luo Haiyang, however, couldn’t accept these words. In his eyes, all of Yang Jingsheng’s explanations were attempts to shift blame.

“Damn it, you still dare to speak. If it weren’t for you, how could I have driven them away? Get lost, or else I’ll make you regret it!” Luo Haiyang kicked Yang Jingsheng again.

This time, the kick wasn’t as forceful, and Yang Jingsheng didn’t fall.

“Damn it, you just wait for me. I’ll deal with you another day,” said Yang Jingsheng. He knew he couldn’t beat Luo Haiyang in a physical fight, so he drove his car and left.

When Yang Jingsheng drove his car out, he saw the new Maserati Quattroporte was driven out from the Maserati 4S dealership. The owner of the car was Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin was beside him.

“Damn it, I can’t borrow any money today, and I’ve been kicked twice! It’s all because of you, this couple of troublemakers!”

Yang Jingsheng slapped the steering wheel in frustration and wanted to step on his pedal to bang the Maserati Quattroporte. However, he didn’t have the guts to do such a thing. If it got worse, he might have to go to jail which was something he didn’t want to do. He thought it wasn’t worth his time.

However, Yang Jingsheng did wonder how Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin had the money to buy such a luxury car and where they got the 2.3 million yuan. The only possibility he could think of was winning the lottery. There wasn’t any other way to explain it.

Yang Jingsheng couldn’t imagine Xu Yang or Zhao Yuxin earning that kind of money elsewhere. Xu Yang’s family couldn’t possibly afford it, and while Zhao Yuxin’s father ran a small restaurant, they likely couldn’t provide the money for such a purchase.

“Damn it, I don’t even know who to borrow money from now. Tomorrow is my girlfriend’s birthday, and I have to get some money. Otherwise, I’ll have to ask my dad.”

Yang Jingsheng parked his car, took out his phone, and started scrolling through his contacts, searching for someone who might lend him money. After several unsuccessful attempts, he finally found someone willing to help and left in his car.
