Chapter 269: Chapter 263: I Do Have Money
Translator: 549690339
“Dude, let’s call it quits, it’s no competition. This guy is in a different league!”, the needle-like gaze of the onlookers sharply focused on the two young men. Finn Lewis just stood there, smiling with a 300 million cheque in his hand, a cheque that was absolutely captivating.
300 million! It was an astronomical number for them. They didn’t usually have that much pocket money. Although they were rich, the wealth belonged to their families. How much could they earn on their own? They longed to accept that money, but the dispositions of Lewis and the onlookers made their faces turn beet red.
They were usually spoiled, but when had they ever been smacked with money like this? Who had ever dared to belittle them with a load of cash? But now…Not to mention, they were completely deflated, even if they wanted to lose their temper, there was nowhere to vent. Sure, he hit your car, but even your ride was a billion, he handed it over without a word. It was already worth tens of times its value. What more do you want?
More importantly, sensing your discontent, he also added 50 million to each of you. Isn’t that enough face for you? But…. The money seemed like charity, they were usually so cocky, how could they swallow their pride now? Their faces were flushed like they were heavily drunk, their eyes seemed as though they could shoot fire out.
“Are you rich?” The silver-haired youth finally choked out a sentence.
“Not really, I just scrape by. But I am better off than those who try to pursue girls with a bit of pocket money.” Lewis still responded with a smile.
“Pffft!” Finally, someone in the crowd couldn’t hold back their laughter. As for the expressions on the faces of the others, they were a bit weird. If that is what you call scraping by, then what are we? Beggars?
“You!” This youth’s face was almost green, he was about ready to rush over and whack Finn Lewis.
“Alright, do you have a lot of money?” Just then, a sudden voice rang out, followed by a short-haired beauty who directly stepped out of the crowd and started speaking while walking.
As Finn Lewis was about to respond, the beauty arrived by his side and grabbed the cheque from his hand. “If you have too much money, help me out a little instead of funding jerks who might just harm more girls.” While speaking, the beauty pulled a cheque from her bag, swiftly wrote a few numbers on it and then confidently strode over to the silver-haired youth. With a woosh-like sound, she brandished the cheque and handed it over to him.
“This is five million, these two cars cost over eight million, I am giving you five million out of respect. If you still want to cause trouble, come and find me, remember my name is Sarah Wood.” The beauty stood in front of the two youths and said confidently.
Lewis noticed the flaring anger on the faces of the two youths, especially the silver-haired one. But when the beauty said her name, and they made sure her name was correct on the cheque, their anger subsided. Instead, they looked fearful, as a mouse would when it sees a cat.
“Get lost, what are you waiting for?” Wood glared at the two young men and said.
“Yes, yes, we’re leaving, sorry for the inconvenience.” The two youths quickly complied and ran off, not even caring about their cars.
“Wait, hire a tow truck and get these junk cars out of here.” Wood yelled out again.
“Understood.” The silver-haired youth responded quickly and then disappeared.
“Hey handsome, wanna know me better? My name is Sarah Wood, Kay Lee’s good friend.” Wood stretched out her hand with a big smile and introduced herself to Lewis.
Lewis by her side was left dumbfounded. Damn it, I’ve met shameless people before, but never as bad as this! Lewis thought he was already shameless enough, but now he encountered someone even more outrageous.
Kay Lee also walked over and said with a helpless smile, “You’re here. Let me introduce, Sarah Wood, my good friend, this is Finn Lewis.”
“Nice to meet you.” Finn Lewis reached out his hand to shake with Sarah Wood’s; the three then headed towards the teahouse. As they walked, Lewis couldn’t help but ask, “Kay, didn’t you hear that saying?
Only after they had sat down, Kay Lee looked at Lewis curiously and asked, “What saying?
“Beware of fire, thieves, and best friends.” Lewis glanced at Wood, who was sipping her tea across the table.
“Pfff”, Wood, who had just taken a sip of her tea, spurted it out at Lewis’ comment. Seeing the spilled tea on his own table, Lewis almost burst into laughter. It was a good thing his own tea hadn’t been served, otherwise he wouldn’t dare to drink it.
“Stop it.” Kay Lee glared at Lewis, then moved her tea cup to the side and said to Wood, “Sarah, ignore him.”
“Hey, I mean it, guard against your buddy. Do you know that you almost snatched my girlfriend? I was planning to ask you for an explanation. I like women!” Wood fiercely eyed Lewis and said.
“Hey, you’ve already snatched my 300 million, you don’t need to snatch my woman too, right? Or else, should I introduce you to a few other women?” Lewis said with a grin.
“No thanks, I only like our Kay Lee. And here is your 300 million back. Are you out of your mind? Paying 300 million for two crappy cars?” Wood slapped the cheque on the table and then looked incredulously at Lewis.
Lewis looked at the cheque on the table but didn’t take it. Instead, he said with a smile, ” I already gave it away, why would I take it back? Besides, you didn’t snatch it from me but from them. Since you got it back, you should decide what to do with it.”
“Are you sure you don’t want it?” Wood looked at Lewis in disbelief.
Lewis simply shook his head. In fact, he hadn’t planned on retrieving the money in the first place. If those two guys had taken the money and left, he wouldn’t have asked for it back. After all, to Lewis, the money was merely a drop in the bucket. Especially after gaining support from another world, Lewis wasn’t concerned about money at all.
“So Kay, are you sure you want to consider him? Isn’t he just a prodigal? If you go with him, he’ll squander your wealth in no time!” Wood looked at Kay Lee and exclaimed.
Kay Lee blushed and then playfully slapped Wood’s hand and said, “Stop talking nonsense.”
“By the way, why are you two here? Isn’t there the Moon of West Lake teahouse?” Lewis asked.
“I’d love to go there, but Kay said they didn’t admit outsiders, didn’t they?” Wood immediately replied. Lewis laughed and said, “Sure, that place was indeed opened for Kay Lee, but if she brings guests, we certainly won’t deny them..”
