Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

Chapter 180: Keeping Up with the Joneses


After investigation, it's been found that 25% of fights between individuals nationwide are due to family disputes, 17% due to financial interests. Other reasons account for 5%, but over 50% are due to women.

Arguments and even physical altercations over women are not uncommon. One might often encounter this in life, or it might happen to oneself.

So, the saying "beauty brings calamity" holds true. And there's really logic to "going to war for a beauty."

It's the vanity of men at play. In the presence of a beautiful woman, wanting to actively show off oneself is a normal male trait. But when two or more men want to compete in front of a beauty, conflicts arise.

Just like now, Xiaofan's appearance is making these rich second-generation kids uncomfortable. Because the beauty they're actively displaying themselves to seems more inclined towards him.

"Who are you? No manners at all, how come students from Capital University are so uncouth? Speaking out of turn like this. Where did you pop out from?" Xiaofan glanced at the guy who spoke just now.

"You... My family does 4S sales, with a monthly sales volume of up to eight million. Plus car parts, insurance sales, and so on, it basically surpasses ten million." The guy immediately disclosed his family background.

"What a mess. I was born from my mother after ten months of pregnancy, how could you link that to car parts? Ridiculous."

"Pfft." Hearing Xiaofan's nonsensical reply, even Liu Siyan couldn't help almost bursting into laughter.

"You, huh, look like you just woke up, dressed like a street hooligan. Your hair looks like weeds. Not even a basic car, see that Audi parked over there? It's mine, worth eight hundred thousand." The man's voice was loud, as if afraid others might not know he's rich.

However, the other guys also quickly showed off their car keys. Obviously, each of them drove to the university. I wonder how much the parking management fee for Capital University's campus is annually?

"Wow, that's impressive, but Miss Liu likes taking taxis." Xiaofan turned to look at Liu Siyan.

"Hmm? Hmm. Why is your hair so messy? Just woke up?" Liu Siyan didn't care about the rest; her eyes were on Xiaofan alone.

"No, I was afraid of being late and forgot to groom it. Are you mad?" Xiaofan asked softly.

"Hmm..." Liu Siyan smiled sweetly; she wouldn't easily get mad at Xiaofan. After all, he must have just realized he was going to be late, that's why he rushed out so anxiously.

Their disregard for anyone else as they talked only fueled the anger of the neighboring rich second-generation kids. But clearly, the two already knew each other well.

"Miss Liu, how did you know such a scruffy person? Looks so suspicious." Oh, here comes the personal attack again.

"He's my friend, how could you..."

"Vroom, vroom..."

Just as Liu Siyan frowned, ready to scold the rich kid next to her, a clear revving engine sound came through. That sound was surely impressive.

A brand-new BMW X6 sped to the opposite gate of Mingyuan University, then the driver looked over at Xiaofan and turned to the gate of Capital University.

'Click.' The car door sound was pleasant, and the closing door sound was quiet too.

Inside, a tall short-haired woman stepped out slowly, removed her sunglasses, and frowned at Ye Xiaofan.

"I knew you'd come here looking for Liu Siyan. Here, the car's back. Try it out." Chen Mei'Er said, tossing the car keys of this vehicle to Xiaofan in shock of those so-called rich second-generation kids.

Xiaofan caught it casually and asked, "Really? This car must be so expensive, right?"

"The base car is 2.3 million, adding all the miscellaneous stuff, it's about 2.4 million. Paid in full." Chen Mei'Er explained simply.

"Seriously, such a waste. Why'd you buy such an expensive one when I asked you to help me buy a car?" Xiaofan shook his head saying.

At that moment, a black Audi quickly followed, and Li San got out of the car with a look of exasperation.

"Oh my, this aunt, your driving was way too fast. I couldn't catch up even if I tried."

"And how much is this one?" Xiaofan continued to ask.

"Over 1.2 million." Chen Mei'Er continued.

"Ah, this one is better. Li San, let's swap." Xiaofan said, tossing the car keys over.

"What? Swap with me? Hey, hey, your car's over a million more expensive than mine." Li San said in disbelief as he caught the car keys.

"Less talk, driving a car that expensive, imagine how much it'd cost to fix a scratch." Xiaofan snatched Li San's car keys and opened the car door to get in: "Siyan, let's go."

"Okay." Liu Siyan smiled lightly; she knew Xiaofan could drive. And thinking back now, during the last period of senior year, he'd drive her home every day, it was truly joyful.

"Hey, where are you going, I'm coming too." Chen Mei'Er said, quickly following.

"On a date, why follow and be a third wheel. Go home and have dinner with your dad." Xiaofan turned the steering wheel, the car made a beautiful arc, accelerating along the road.

"Big sister, it seems you have a lot of rivals." Li San walked over and said.

"Get lost, drive, take me home for dinner." Chen Mei'Er pouted, obviously sulking because Xiaofan didn't take her but left with Liu Siyan for some alone time.

As Li San started the engine, the BMW X6 took off again, leaving Capital University's gate. Left behind in their wake were those so-called rich second-generation kids, thrown into chaos.

They'd surely seen cars worth two or three million, and their families had them too, but they didn't own such good cars themselves. Just moments ago, they thought they'd suppress Xiaofan with this, but unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, they were utterly defeated.

"What do you want to eat?"

"You decide."

"Maybe I should go back and change first."

"Why?"

"Going out like this with you might embarrass you."

"No need, it's fine like this, I like it this way."

"I heard there's a musical fountain in the east of the city."

"Hmm. Will you take me there?"

"Yes, of course. But let's eat first. How about the seafood restaurant under Baisha Bridge?"

"Geez, so you heard everything."

"I didn't mean to listen, those guys were talking so loudly, as if afraid others couldn't hear them."

"Hehe. You, you are something. Let's skip those two places; I want hot pot, then a trip to the supermarket."

"Are you sure?"

"Sure."

"As you command."
