I was exposed for adding my female boss to my group of female friends.

"Your family couldn't possibly afford such an expensive watch; you must be bragging."

"Your entire outfit, including clothes and shoes, costs just over ten thousand yuan. At most, if you add your cosmetics, it doesn't even amount to twenty thousand yuan. You say your family can afford a watch worth over seven million yuan?"

Who would believe that?

"If that's really the case, then I have to stand up for you. Buying you a watch worth over 700 million and then dressing you in such shabby clothes, isn't that abusing you?"

Lu Qianzi stared at Zhao Anqi and wrinkled her nose.

That was a pure, unadulterated expression of disgust.

“Zhao Anqi, your scrutinizing gaze disgusts me.”

Zhang Xinlei stepped in to smooth things over, saying:

"Alright, alright, classmates, let's not let this hurt our friendship. We'll be living together for another two or three years, so let's not let a momentary disagreement affect our relationship."

After saying that, he turned to Lu Qianzi and asked:

"Qianzi, please tell us clearly, what is the price of the watch? So that everyone will have a clear understanding of the compensation."

Lu Qianzi blushed slightly and said hurriedly, "I already told you, it's over seven million."

Although she didn't know how Chen Ya got his hands on the watch.

But she looked at the prices listed in the store.

It's over seven million, no deception whatsoever.

Chen Ya listened for a while, then finally spoke:

“Qianzi wasn’t lying. I bought this watch for 7.2 million. That’s over 7 million.”

"This……"

Seven million two hundred thousand.

Zhang Xinlei originally thought that the so-called seven million was more than seven million.

Little did he know that this extra amount would be unbelievable to him.

Zhao Anqi sized Chen Ya up and down, her blood boiling slightly.

"Is this your watch?"

“It’s mine.” Chen Ya blinked calmly.

"Then I don't believe it even more," Zhao Anqi said. "The outfit you're wearing isn't even as good as Lu Qianzi's just now, it only cost a few thousand yuan, right? You're someone who wears a seven million yuan watch, why don't you buy yourself some better clothes?"

Lu Qianzi blushed after hearing Zhao Anqi's words.

Zhao Anqi came at her, but she didn't care at all.

But if she were to turn her attention to Chen Ya, she would start to panic.

Besides, the clothes Chen Ya was wearing were picked out for him by her and his mother today.

Compared to that watch worth over seven million, it's really nothing.

Chen Ya glanced down at his Adidas jeans and said:

"Oh, my family picked out these clothes for me, and I really like them. Clothes are all about the thought behind them; if they look good, why make them so expensive?"

Lu Qianzi looked at Chen Ya with gratitude.

She now truly feels that her half-brother is a good person, which warms her heart.

Unfortunately, he didn't look at himself.

Zhao Anqi coldly turned her face away and chuckled twice: "Heh."

She was even less convinced.

After listening to both sides, Zhang Xinlei roughly understood what was going on.

Or perhaps you think you understand.

"Lu Qianzi's brother, is the price you mentioned the original price?"

"What's the original price?" Chen Ya asked.

"You mean the price before the discount?" Zhang Xinlei said, then chuckled to himself. "Is it that the store lists it at seven million, but the actual price you get is after the discount?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Anqi perked up her ears slightly.

She suddenly realized that what Zhang Xinlei said might also be a line of thought.

Sometimes, as a promotional tactic, stores will discount diamonds originally priced at tens of thousands of dollars to just a few thousand.

But in most cases, the diamond is only worth a few thousand dollars.

However, when consumers actually buy it, they will never quote the discounted price; if they want to save face, they will definitely quote the original price.

It's prestigious to tell others.

These are all consumer tricks.

Zhao Anqi thought this idea was feasible because she herself had done something similar.

“The original price was 7.2 million, and I received a little over 7.2 million, plus some miscellaneous fees,” Chen Ya said. “Patek Philippe doesn’t offer any discounts.”

Zhang Xinlei thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have the receipt with you?"

Zhao Anqi turned around, pointed at Chen Ya, and asked, "Right, didn't you just buy it? Did you bring the receipt?"

Lu Qianzi's heart tightened.

Chen Ya said calmly:

"I brought the receipt, but I have no reason to show it to you. The police will be here soon, and I will show them the receipt then."

These people kept questioning him, and it started to annoy him.

He no longer intends to apply his savior spirit to Zhao Anqi.

Since her family education has failed, I have no reason to treat her with kindness.

We can simply re-educate her using social methods.

He intends to leave everything to the police and the law.

Pay whatever amount is due. If they refuse to pay, hire a lawyer to enforce the judgment and add them to the blacklist.

In any case, he doesn't plan to spend any more time personally involved in this matter.

Not long after, two uniformed police officers arrived and asked:

Who called the police?

Chen Ya went over and told the two of them what had happened.

The police questioned him about several things. He showed them his watch and pulled a handful of receipts from his pocket.

Zhao Anqi watched them talking not far away, wanting to go over and listen, but not daring to.

She swallowed nervously.

After a while, the police officers came over and asked, "Which one of you is Zhao Anqi?"

Zhao Anqi stood up timidly and said, "It's me."

Did you break the watch?

"No, there are several other people, not just me..."

The police officer said, "Then we'll trouble all of you involved to come with us and cooperate with the investigation."

Immediately, complaints filled the classroom, and the students involved were quite dissatisfied with Zhao Anqi.

Cha Xiaoming looked at Zhao Anqi with a mixture of anger and disbelief, and whispered:

"What does this have to do with me? Zhao Anqi, you're really a weirdo."

Just as the police officers were about to leave with their men, Zhang Xinlei grabbed one of them and whispered:

"Officer, I'm the student's club advisor. Is his watch really worth over seven million?"

The police officer frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

“Look, if it weren’t such a large amount, we wouldn’t have needed to send so many students to the police station, right? If word gets out, it will have a really bad impact…”

The police officer who was pulled back said:

"First, even if the damaged items are only worth a few hundred or a few thousand yuan, and the person refuses to compensate and denies the facts, we still need to investigate and clarify who is responsible. Second, that gentleman has already shown us the relevant certificates and receipts, and the price of seven million two hundred thousand yuan is confirmed!"

After saying that, the police officers left with Chen Ya, Lu Qianzi, and several other parties involved.

Zhang Xinlei felt a little suffocated.

It really is over seven million.

He turned around and saw Zhao Anqi following behind the crowd, preparing to leave.

At that moment, she turned around and looked at him with a slightly resentful gaze.

He turned his head away, pretending not to see.

Just kidding, he damaged someone's property worth over seven million yuan and is now using himself as a shield to try and cover it up.

He now feels extremely frightened.

Fortunately, I wasn't completely dragged down by Zhao Anqi!

The other students in the classroom also heard the conversation and were looking at each other with disbelief.

One student muttered, "Goodness, thank goodness I wasn't wearing it. If it had broken on my wrist..."

He spoke for everyone, and everyone felt a wave of fear.

Someone asked, "Who is Lu Qianzi's brother? Is he really that impressive, wearing a watch worth over seven million?"

Another person said, "See? He's wearing another one on his hand, and it's also very expensive."

Student association president Qin Jinna rubbed her forehead and said:

"Alright, alright, everyone, let's stop discussing this. Please be careful not to spread this story."

A girl next to me ran over and asked, "Senior, I just posted something on my WeChat Moments, should I delete it?"

Qin Jinna said, "Let's delete it. There's nothing to brag about. If people find out that something like this happened in our club, it won't be honorable to talk about it."

She was very dissatisfied with Zhao Anqi.

However, it's a good thing to see through the nature of such troublemakers early on and defuse any potential problems.

……

After half an hour.

When Lu Qianzi came out of the inquiry room, Chen Ya was already sitting on the bench outside, sitting with his legs crossed and drinking milk tea.

Lu Qianzi was very upset.

She was questioned by the police for more than 20 minutes, with every detail being carefully examined, which almost drove her to the brink of collapse.

I never imagined that my first trip to a police station would happen under these circumstances.

"I also brought you a cup of milk tea, would you like some?" Chen Ya handed her a cup of milk tea.

"No, no, I'll get fat if I drink it... Oh well, it'll be fine to have one cup."

Lu Qianzi took the milk tea, looked at the packaging, and was a little surprised.

How did you know I like this kind of drink?

"Have you forgotten?" Chen Ya asked, a straw in his mouth. "At the Grand Hyatt, didn't you stare at their mango pomelo sago display for ages?"

Lu Qianzi poked the cup open with a straw, looking at him with watery eyes.

"Honestly, if you were to date someone, you would definitely be the kind of boyfriend that many people would envy."

Chen Ya stood up and said, "Let's go."

Lu Qianzi followed behind him, taking slow and deliberate steps.

"Why did you come out so quickly?"

“I just told the police everything I needed to tell them, so there’s no need for further questioning,” Chen Ya said.
