Chapter 91

The woman's attitude was very clear; she was there to show off. She and Li Ying were high school classmates, but she was different from Li Ying. Li Ying was very popular in high school because she was beautiful, while she was the girl no one paid attention to.

She envied Li Ying. After entering college, she started to dress herself up in a seductive manner and eventually managed to hook a rich man named Da Jun.

When she first entered the restaurant, she saw Li Ying and exaggerated her tone just to make a show.

Seeing Li Ying still wearing clothes from a street stall, she felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

"Right, I believe your boyfriend must be very good to you, but it's a pity he doesn't have money and can only make you suffer with him," the woman said with a sneer.

Xia Tian sat there without saying a word, just watching the woman entertain herself.

"Brother, what year are you in?" Da Jun asked Xia Tian.

"I'm starting my first year this semester," Xia Tian replied.

"Oh, quite young. You might have a good future ahead," Da Jun said in a condescending tone.

"Li Ying, your boyfriend has a pretty good sense of style. Although it's not a brand, the combination looks quite nice," the woman scanned Xia Tian's clothes.

"True, it's not bad for street stall clothes," Da Jun nodded in agreement.

"Where is Brother Lin? He's late," the woman looked at the door and asked.

"He should be here soon. Brother Lin is so busy, he can't just show up whenever," Da Jun explained.

"Li Ying, I'll introduce you to a big shot later. We all call him Brother Lin. His family runs a company. After graduation, if you can't find a job, you can go to Brother Lin's place. He will definitely take care of you for our sake," the woman looked at Li Ying with a haughty expression, as if she were really doing her a favor.

She said this to show off her extensive network.

Li Ying didn't say anything, just listened to the woman and Da Jun play off each other.

"Sorry, I'm late," a tall man appeared at the door, about 1.8 meters tall, with a fair complexion.

"Not late, we just got here," Da Jun quickly said.

"Are these two your friends?" Brother Lin asked after sitting down, noticing Li Ying and Xia Tian.

"Brother Lin, this is Li Ying, my high school classmate. That's her boyfriend," the woman explained.

"Oh, if they're friends, let's eat together," Brother Lin said generously.

"Brother Lin, you always wear different clothes. The one you're wearing must be expensive," the woman said, though she didn't recognize the brand, she knew Brother Lin wouldn't wear cheap clothes.

"Oh, it's okay, 1800 yuan," Brother Lin nodded.

"Brother Lin is Brother Lin, every piece of clothing is so expensive," the woman praised.

Brother Lin smiled slightly but didn't say anything. He glanced at Li Ying and nodded silently. He could tell she was a beauty at first sight, and upon closer inspection, she was definitely a major beauty, with naturally good skin despite no makeup.

He then turned to look at Xia Tian, curious about what the boyfriend of such a beautiful girl looked like. When he saw Xia Tian, he could only marvel at the match of a handsome man and a beautiful woman, but he didn't think much of it, as in this society, it's about ability, not looks.

Looking at Xia Tian's clothes, his brow furrowed slightly. He felt the clothes were very familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere before.

He took out his phone, flipped through the album, and finally found the clothes. After a careful comparison, he was stunned.

"Brother Lin, Brother Lin? What's wrong?" the woman asked, seeing Brother Lin in a daze.

"Huh." Brother Lin was brought back by the woman's call. He pointed at Xia Tian's clothes and asked, "Is this the limited edition of the XXX brand? There's only one in Jianghai City?"

"I don't know, someone gave it to me," Xia Tian shook his head. It was just one of the many clothes Zeng Rou had bought for him, and he didn't know its origin.

Brother Lin looked at his phone again and compared it. This was a photo he had taken from a specialty store, hoping to buy it one day. After a while, he said, "Yes, it's definitely it."

"Brother Lin, what are you talking about?" Da Jun looked at Brother Lin in confusion.

"I'm talking about the clothes he's wearing. I've always wanted to buy them, but they're too expensive, 18888 yuan. So I planned to save some money to buy them," Brother Lin explained.

"18888." Hearing this number, the other three were stunned.

The woman's face was full of disbelief. She had just mocked Xia Tian for wearing street stall clothes and boasted about her own clothes being hundreds of yuan, but his clothes were actually 18888 yuan.

This was a completely different level. She finally understood why she felt his clothes didn't seem like street stall clothes.

Da Jun was even more surprised. He had never given Xia Tian a proper look and had just condescendingly lectured him, but he never expected Xia Tian to be wearing such expensive clothes.

"Brother Lin, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" the woman asked, hoping for a last chance.

"No, I'm sure. I've seen this piece of clothing countless times. I could draw it with my eyes closed," Brother Lin said confidently.

Hearing Brother Lin's firm response, the woman wished she could find a hole to crawl into. This was too embarrassing.

It was like a pancake seller boasting about how much money they could make in a day to Li Ka-shing.

She finally understood what "showing off in front of an expert" meant.

Li Ying also looked at Xia Tian in surprise, never expecting him to be so wealthy.

"Counterfeit, could it be a counterfeit?" Da Jun asked Brother Lin.

"No, I've seen counterfeits, and they are far from the real thing. Although they look similar on the surface, they are on a completely different level," Brother Lin shook his head, looking at Xia Tian enviously.

Hearing Brother Lin's confirmation again, Da Jun's heart sank to the bottom of the lake. He wished he could find a wall to crash into.

He had really overestimated himself. When he turned to look at Xia Tian, he realized he was wrong. He had always thought he was good at showing off, but Xia Tian sat there without saying a word and still managed to show off.

This was the highest level of showing off.
