After surviving my ordeal, I learned that the school beauty had given birth to twins for me.

Chapter 22 Buying a House with 6 Yuan in Cash

Jiang Xinlan found her smug expression laughable and coldly retorted:

"Whether I can afford it or not is none of your concern. But you, you married a man who could be your father, and you pamper him like a treasure every day. You climbed up the social ladder by clinging to a rich man, and you think everyone is like you. You really are a dirty-hearted person; you see dirt in everything."

In one sentence, he accurately hit Zhao Tingting's sore spot.

She was most sensitive about people saying she married an old man for money, and her face instantly turned red. She pointed at Jiang Xinlan's nose and started cursing:

"Who the hell are you talking about? Jiang Xinlan, you bitch! You've been dumped by a man for six years with two kids in tow, and now you've hooked up with who knows what kind of bastard you've gotten, and you still dare to mock me? I think you're tired of living!"

As she cursed, she raised her hand and slapped Jiang Xinlan across the face.

But before her hand could even touch Jiang Xinlan's clothes, it was gripped tightly by a large hand.

Shen Yu took a step forward, firmly shielding Jiang Xinlan behind him. His eyes were as cold as ice, and he tightened his grip on Zhao Tingting's wrist, causing Zhao Tingting to scream in pain.

"Ouch! It hurts! Let go! You fucking let go!"

"With such a filthy mouth, you deserved to be hit."

Shen Yu spoke coldly and slapped Zhao Tingting across the face.

Zhao Tingting staggered from the blow, covering her face and staring at Shen Yu in disbelief: "You dare hit me?! You fucking dare hit me?!"

Zhao Tingting glared venomously at Shen Yu, finally recognizing him.

"Who do we have here? It turns out you're Shen Yu, the coward who disappeared for six years! I thought Jiang Xinlan had found some powerful sugar daddy, but it turns out it's you who's back?"

"Are you blind? You want a woman like that? Do you know how many men she's been involved with in the past six years? It's questionable whether these two children are even yours, and you're still happily spending money to buy her a house?"

If I were you, I would have crawled into a hole and disappeared. Being cuckolded and so happy to be a father is just laughable!

These words were extremely malicious, not only insulting Jiang Xinlan but also bringing up the two children.

Jiang Xinlan's face instantly turned deathly pale with anger, and she trembled all over: "Zhao Tingting! What nonsense are you spouting!"

Before she could finish speaking, Shen Yu slapped Zhao Tingting across the face again. This slap was even harder, knocking her to the ground and drawing blood from the corner of her mouth.

"Zhao Tingting, if you dare to slander Xinlan and the child again, I won't hesitate to make sure you can never speak again for the rest of your life."

Shen Yu's eyes were so cold they could freeze someone to death, and the oppressive aura emanating from him instantly spread, making it difficult for Zhao Tingting to even breathe.

"It's none of your business, as an outsider, to interfere with my women and children."

Zhao Tingting trembled with fear at his gaze, scrambling to her feet and throwing herself into the arms of the man beside her, crying out:

"Honey! He hit me! You have to get revenge for me! Look what he did to me!"

When Zhao Tingting's husband, Wang Fugui, saw his young wife being beaten, his face instantly darkened, and he pointed at Shen Yu and began to curse:

"You little brat! You dare touch my woman? You've got a death wish!"

Wang Fugui runs a building materials business in Jiangcheng and has some money. He's used to being arrogant and doesn't take Shen Yu seriously at all.

In his view, Jiang Xinlan was just a minor actress, and what money could the man next to her have? He must be just trying to show off at the sales office.

He turned and shouted sternly at the sales manager:

"Is this how you serve customers at your sales office? You let just anyone in? These two clearly can't afford a house; they're just here to cause trouble! Get them out of here right now! Otherwise, I'm not buying this house from you!"

The sales manager immediately looked troubled; both sides were customers, and he dared not offend either of them.

At this moment, Jiang Xinlan took a step forward and calmly spoke.

"That penthouse villa by the river here, it cost 60 million, right? We bought it in full, and we can swipe our cards and complete the formalities right now."

Wang Fugui and Zhao Tingting were both stunned, then burst into laughter as if they had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Buying a 60 million yuan villa in cash? Jiang Xinlan, what are you pretending for?"

Zhao Tingting covered her face and said sarcastically,

"You're just an extra, you'd never earn 60 million in your entire life, and you're talking about buying a villa outright? I bet you don't even have 60,000 in your account! Don't even look at your surroundings when you're trying to show off!"

Wang Fugui also scoffed:

"Kid, there's a limit to how much you can flirt. Trying to act like a big shot with a blank card? Do you think we're stupid? If this card can generate 60 million, I'll kowtow to you three times right here! If it can't, neither of you are leaving this sales office alive!"

Zhao Tingting also loudly echoed, as if afraid that the people around her wouldn't hear her:

"That's right! If you can really pay the full amount in cash, my husband and I will kowtow to you three times! If you can't, you'll kneel down and apologize, then take your two bastard children and get out of Jiangcheng!"

These words immediately caused an uproar among the onlookers.

"My God, is this a huge gamble? Three kowtows and he'll still be kicked out of Jiangcheng!"

"That woman is so arrogant. What does it matter to her whether someone buys a house or not?"

"I think this couple is absolutely certain that the other person can't afford it, otherwise why would they dare to make such a bet?"

Shen Yu looked at the couple, who were acting like clowns, and laughed angrily: "Did you say that yourselves?"

"I said it! So what?" Wang Fugui retorted arrogantly, his neck stiff.

"What? Scared? If you don't dare gamble, then get lost!"

"Okay. I'll bet with you." Jiang Xinlan nodded calmly, gesturing for Jiang Xinlan to take out her bank card.

Jiang Xinlan nodded, took out the black card Shen Yu had given her from her bag, and gently placed it on the counter in the sales office.

Zhao Tingting scoffed upon hearing this:

"Hahaha, Jiang Xinlan, are you crazy? You think you can pretend to be rich with a worthless black card? Everyone knows these kinds of black cards are easy to make. You're just fooling yourself!"

"Yeah, what are you pretending for? Go ahead and try to make money! I want to see if you can even scrape together a single penny!"

Wang Fugui also looked mocking, his tone full of disdain, convinced that Jiang Xinlan was just putting on an act.

Jiang Xinlan was too lazy to waste words with them, so she looked up at the manager and said, "Manager, please swipe our cards and complete the procedures."

The sales manager's eyes lit up when he saw the black card on the table.

He recognized it at a glance; it was a genuine private bank black card, something only top clients with deposits exceeding 100 million yuan could possess, and there were only a handful in the entire Jiangcheng!

The person in front of me can casually pull out such a black card; they are definitely not an ordinary person.

He quickly picked up the black card, handed it to the card reader with both hands, and said excitedly.

"Ms. Jiang, please wait a moment, I'll swipe your card right away!"

Seeing this, Zhao Tingting remained defiant: "Keep pretending! Let's see how you get off the stage when you can't get it to appear! Then, let's see if you still have the face to stay on the Cloud Realm Platform!"

Wang Fugui also crossed his arms, looking on with amusement.

"That's right, I want to see if this worthless card of yours can swipe out 60 million! If it can't, you'll do as agreed, kneel down and apologize to my wife, and then get out of Jiangcheng!"

Jiang Xinlan remained expressionless, simply saying, "We'll see."

The real estate consultant took a deep breath, inserted the black card into the card reader, and entered the amount: sixty million.

At the same time, the real estate consultant received a bank notification that 60 million yuan had been deposited into his account in one lump sum.

The entire room fell silent.

Everyone was stunned, staring at Jiang Xinlan in disbelief.

Sixty million... in full... did the transaction really go through?!
