"Take your people and get out of Jiangbei City. If I ever see you in Jiangbei City again, you'll regret it!"
Lu Yang sneered, his smile chilling to the bone. Xiao Wuji, terrified, quickly scurried away, while his companions dragged the bodies of the two deceased out.
After a fight, earning twenty-five billion. This was a decent deal, all things considered.
"Lu Yang, are you alright?"
Seeing everyone leave, Shen Yiman rushed to Lu Yang's side. She hadn't dared to disturb him before, but now that Lu Yang had handled everything, Shen Yiman pulled him into a frantic examination.
"I'm fine, better than ever!" Lu Yang said with a smile.
"You scared me to death just now!" Shen Yiman threw herself into Lu Yang's arms, tears welling up.
"Don't worry, you've seen my abilities and methods. Even snipers can't do anything to me!" Lu Yang said with a slight smile.
"Promise me, don't do such risky things again. Let's just live a quiet life, okay?" Shen Yiman turned her head and looked at Lu Yang very seriously.
"Yiman, you don't want this either, but in this life, one must uphold certain responsibilities. My responsibilities are not yet fulfilled, so I must continue to persevere!" Lu Yang looked at Shen Yiman and spoke with equal seriousness.
"Since I can't convince you, I can only follow you. Whatever decision you make, I will follow you steadfastly!" Shen Yiman managed a tearful smile and said to Lu Yang.
"Yiman!" Lu Yang didn't know what to say for a moment, so he simply pulled Shen Yiman into his embrace.
"Let's go, I'll take you shopping. We got so much money today, shouldn't we spend it well?" Lu Yang stroked Shen Yiman's hair and said with a smile.
"Mhm!" Shen Yiman nodded obediently, and soon the two headed towards the shopping plaza.
Tianmei Shopping Plaza, Jiangbei City's largest shopping complex, carried all sorts of brands. This plaza was also an asset of Haitong Group. Lu Yang led Shen Yiman directly to the top floor, the most expensive floor in the entire plaza, filled with imported products. Each piece of clothing here cost hundreds of thousands.
However, with Lu Yang's net worth, a small mall like this could be bought with a flick of his wrist. But Lu Yang, with his habits formed over decades, was rather simple and never wore particularly expensive clothes, so his entire outfit now didn't even cost a thousand yuan.
As Shen Yiman walked with Lu Yang, they drew frequent sideways glances from those around them.
"Why do all the good ones go to the pigs?"
"Nowadays, even toads can get swan meat? While princes like us have nothing!"
"Times have changed, beauties now prefer beasts!"
"..."
Many people shook their heads in lament, gossiping incessantly about Shen Yiman and Lu Yang. But Lu Yang didn't care. When he was with Tang Shimin, people had also gossiped wildly, and Lu Yang had long grown accustomed to it.
"Yiman, pick whatever you like. Today, I'll let you indulge. Even if you want the entire building, I'll buy it for you!" Lu Yang looked at Shen Yiman and said with a smile.
"That's not necessary. I'll just pick out an outfit for you. I have too many clothes, so I don't need any more!" Shen Yiman replied with a smile.
"How can that be? We said we were coming to buy clothes for you, how did it turn into buying for me?"
"Buy for you first, then buy for me!" Without further ado, Lu Yang led Shen Yiman into a Chanel boutique. He then looked at a silk scarf and said to Shen Yiman, "I think this scarf suits your temperament perfectly. Package it!"
"Sir, you have excellent taste. This scarf is a limited edition here, and the color and craftsmanship of each one are unique. This one is valued at ninety-nine thousand, and it's definitely worth the price!" The sales assistant immediately introduced to Lu Yang.
"Xiao Yuan, you don't even look at his status before introducing anything to him. This is Chanel, not just anyone can come in and buy things!" Another sales assistant said disdainfully to the one introducing the scarf. She sized up Lu Yang, saw his cheap, street-stall attire, and her expression immediately turned contemptuous.
"Sister Zhang, as service industry workers, we shouldn't judge people by their appearance!" The sales assistant called Xiao Yuan said.
"Is this judging by appearance? This is called having a sharp eye!"
"You're new. These disguised people are just trying to trick girls. You don't understand anything, so you still need to learn from me!" Sister Zhang sneered. She had been working in this Chanel store for five years, a senior employee with an annual salary of over two hundred thousand yuan. Sister Zhang would always butter up anyone with a bit of status very comfortably. Over the years, she had accumulated some reputation, which was why she looked down on Xiao Yuan so much.
Xiao Yuan remained silent, but her face was visibly blushing.
"Are you the store manager here?" Lu Yang asked Sister Zhang coldly.
"No, but since the store manager isn't here, I'm in charge. We don't welcome you in our Chanel store, so please leave!" Sister Zhang said to Lu Yang dismissively.
"On what grounds do you have the right to not welcome me?" Lu Yang sneered, wanting to see what capabilities this Sister Zhang possessed.
"I've seen plenty of men like you. They just rely on their glib tongues to fool girls. When I expose them, they get angry. I advise you to leave quickly, or our mall security will come and make sure you regret it!" Sister Zhang said impatiently.
"We are boyfriend and girlfriend, and no one is deceiving anyone. Please watch your wording!" Shen Yiman couldn't stand it any longer and said coldly to Sister Zhang.
"Hmph, the man I was talking about was already foolish enough, but I didn't expect this woman to be equally idiotic. It's no wonder she'd find such a man. You two are really a pair of paupers! Your designer clothes are probably bought from some second-hand market!" Sister Zhang's expression turned cold upon hearing Shen Yiman's words, and she roared at Shen Yiman with dissatisfaction.
"It seems that after I haven't been here for a long time, some people here have started to think of themselves as gods and customers as fools!" Lu Yang said coldly, taking out his phone to call Lin Guoxiong.
"How much is this dress?" At this moment, a clear voice rang out. Lu Yang's entire body jolted. He instantly recognized the voice as Tang Shimin's. Having spent three years together with Tang Shimin, Lu Yang was all too familiar with her voice.
"One hundred and eighty-eight thousand!" Sister Zhang turned her head and saw Tang Shimin. She then sized Tang Shimin up and said disdainfully again.
