Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 421 An Lan
Chapter 421: Chapter 421 An Lan
Liu Kun swallowed hard and asked subconsciously, "You... How on earth could you have a hundred billion in assets, this... This isn’t scientific..." freewebnσvel.cѳm
"Uh... I don’t really know how to answer your question. Actually, I was also baffled by suddenly having so much money," Chen Fan answered truthfully.
Liu Kun’s expression stiffened; he felt that Chen Fan was deliberately mocking him.
At the same time, he recalled Chen Fan’s attitude toward him and finally understood why he had always felt that the guy had never taken him seriously.
Before, he thought that Chen Fan was arrogant and ignorant, but now he knew that the man really had the capital to not take him seriously.
In contrast, his own modest worth of five hundred million seemed laughable when he thought of taking the woman of a billionaire. If this got out, it would probably become a huge joke.
A strong sense of defeat welled up inside Liu Kun, his mind repeatedly flashing through the scenes after encountering Chen Fan and Su Qingyan. Reflecting on their behavior throughout, he felt like a complete clown.
Furthermore, everyone around was still immersed in the shocking aura of Chen Fan’s wealth, and he even started feeling a bit inferior.
"A hundred billion in assets! That’s just too incredible, it’s my first time ever meeting someone this rich in my life!"
"Indeed, people say that fake tycoons like to flaunt their wealth, while the real ones tend to be low-key, and that’s exactly the case."
"That guy actually had the guts to hit on a billionaire’s woman; that takes some serious courage, too bad he doesn’t have the strength to match, now he’s just a joke."
"Exactly, he can only afford one piece of clothing, and even that’s the cheapest one, looking all stingy and miserly. Where does he even stand against a billionaire who is so generous to discard what he dislikes and package up the rest!"
...
Chen Fan looked towards the host and then said, "Go swipe the card, the password is the last six digits of the card number."
The host hurriedly nodded.
Many people around were looking on with envy. When you have enough money, you don’t worry about others charging extra on your card because even if they randomly charged an extra million or two, it wouldn’t affect the owner at all.
Chen Fan looked at Liu Kun again, stretched out his hand to pat his shoulder, and said indifferently, "You’re not qualified to covet my woman. In the future, watch yourself. If there’s a next time, I won’t be as patient."
Liu Kun’s expression paused for a moment, then he stiffly said, "Got... Got it."
Chen Fan sat down again, Su Qingyan wrapped her arms around his, teasingly said, "Tonight’s expenses are on Mr. Chen."
Chen Fan couldn’t help but laugh, "All to win a smile from Miss Su."
Su Qingyan smiled and said, "Miss Su is very pleased. I would like to thank Mr. Chen here specially."
Chen Fan couldn’t stand this kind of sappy talk, and goosebumps rose on his skin, "Let’s eat, the food will get cold soon."
The banquet ended amidst the lively chatter of the guests, with Chen Fan and Su Qingyan undoubtedly the center of attention, and many came over to make conversation during the event.
Chen Fan didn’t enjoy such things, but Su Qingyan comfortably dealt with everyone, truly fitting the model of someone who graces any hall she enters.
After everyone had gotten up to leave, the earlier host came up to Chen Fan, respectfully gave back the bank card, and said, "Sir, the clothes you requested have all been packaged. If you find it inconvenient to carry them, we could arrange for someone to deliver them wherever you wish."
After thinking it over, Chen Fan said, "Then for now, help us send them home."
He then wrote down the Mu Mansion’s address and handed it to the host.
After tucking it away, the host continued, "Mr., there’s one more thing I need to tell you. Ms. An Lan would like to meet with you. She is waiting backstage right now."
Chen Fan was taken aback, "Meet me?"
The host nodded.
At this, Su Qingyan immediately grew excited and said, "Can I go with you? I’ve wanted to meet An Lan for a long time."
The host said with a touch of embarrassment, "I’m sorry, but Ms. An Lan said she would only meet with this gentleman alone."
Su Qingyan’s face fell in disappointment, but she still turned to Chen Fan and said, "Since An Lan wants to see you, you should go meet with her. She probably wants to thank you for buying so many of her designed clothes."
Chen Fan nodded his head, "Then wait here for me."
Following that, he walked backstage with the host.
In an office backstage, An Lan stood in front of three mannequins wearing the three pieces that Su Qingyan didn’t like.
The office was full of staff, but none of them dared to speak loudly, a testament to An Lan’s domineering presence.
The host approached An Lan from behind and said, "Ms. An Lan, Mr. Chen is here."
An Lan turned around, her sunglasses already off, revealing her radiant and beautiful eyes, yet with a hint of coldness, which instantly elevated her stature a few notches.
There was a teardrop mole underneath her left eye that added a touch of sexiness. Together with her explosive figure, she could turn any man into a beast ruled by his lower half in minutes.
And her repelling gaze only fueled men’s desire to conquer her.
The host quickly turned and walked out, and seeing this, the others quickly left the office as well.
Soon, only Chen Fan and An Lan were left in the office.
An Lan sized up Chen Fan and asked, "So you are the one who bought all my clothes, except for these three behind me?"
Chen Fan nodded.
An Lan asked, "Why did you pick out these three?"
Chen Fan said, "Because they’re not good-looking."
An Lan’s mood visibly darkened, "These three pieces are my attempt at a different style, a bit avant-garde, but I’m sure this aesthetic will become mainstream in the future. If you don’t think they look good, it simply means your taste isn’t up to par."
Seeing An Lan’s thorny response and the fact that he had clearly bought so many of her clothes, Chen Fan was quite forbearing as he said, "The one who said these three aren’t good-looking is my girlfriend. If she says they’re not good-looking, then they’re not. I believe her taste is no less than yours."
An Lan suddenly let out a cold laugh, "Girlfriend? Don’t try to make me think you have no improper thoughts about me using that excuse. You bought so many of my clothes in one go, isn’t it just to please me? There’s no need to fabricate a girlfriend to cover up your real intentions. I’ve seen plenty like you. Let me guess, aren’t you about to tell me that you dumped your girlfriend for me, thus trying to increase my good impression of you?"
Chen Fan’s brows furrowed slightly.
This woman... What’s with her?
