Chapter 74: Facing the Past

"Then... then can I choose another three-horsepower cabinet air conditioner?" Yi Xiaoyan asked timidly.

"Of course, why not? Even if you want two more, that's no problem at all," the young man replied immediately.

The higher-ups' intention was to take care of Yi Xiaoyan, and the cost was of no concern whatsoever. In fact, the more spent on her, the happier they would be.

"What? I can choose two more?" Yi Xiaoyan was astonished.

Was this real? She felt as if she were dreaming.

The young man froze for a moment, then quickly lowered his head, not daring to say anything further. Even if he wanted to curry favor with Yi Xiaoyan, he couldn't go overboard—otherwise, she might become suspicious and refuse to accept the items, and then the higher-ups would twist his head off and kick it like a ball.

After unloading another air conditioner, the young man climbed into the truck and drove off with the workers.

One worker, with a bitter expression, said, "Manager, those air conditioners are supposed to be delivered to other customers. What should we do?"

"What do you mean, 'what should we do?' As long as Miss Yi likes them, even if she takes all the goods from our truck, it's not a problem," the young man shot him a glare. "Now, we'll head back to the headquarters and keep delivering. If we're late, so be it. If the other customers don't want them, we'll just return the goods. The higher-ups don't care about that."

After the young man and the others left, Yi Xiaoyan pinched herself for a while to confirm she wasn't dreaming. Then she pulled out her phone and made a call: "Teacher Tan, hello, have you bought an air conditioner for your home yet? I have a few here, brand new and unopened. I'll sell them to you at a ten percent discount, what do you think—"

That evening, He Haoxuan drove a BMW X7 to Qingshan University.

He had already received several calls from Li Qingwan on the way, threatening that if he didn't show up soon, she'd make him pay.

Alas, he was always so good-looking; if she made him even more "good-looking," how could any other man survive?

He parked in front of the girls' dormitory building, and upstairs, Li Qingwan spotted the car and exclaimed excitedly, "Ha ha ha, Xiaojuan, look, the BMW X7 is here!"

Just then, Minnie strode out of the dorm room and sneered, "Even if it's a BMW X7, it's not that pauper He Haoxuan driving it. He's so poor, how could he possibly afford such a luxury car?"

The driver's door of the BMW swung open, and He Haoxuan stepped out, calling up to the girls with a hint of irritation, "Li Qingwan, what's going on? You told me to hurry up, so why aren't you waiting downstairs? I said when I was at the gate that I'd be here soon."

"We're coming down now," Li Qingwan replied, her mood brightening as she saw He Haoxuan indeed arrive in the BMW.

And the X7 was far superior to the X5—He Haoxuan had really done well, bringing such an impressive car to boost her reputation.

Li Qingwan had seen her elder sister's BMW X5 before, and it was noticeably less upscale than the X7.

Minnie hurried downstairs, rubbing her eyes as she stared at the BMW X7, "This can't be! How could He Haoxuan drive such a nice car?"

Li Qingwan turned and sneered, "Hmph, why not? He Haoxuan is very wealthy."

"That's right! Brother Xuan's car is amazing," Xiaojuan nodded vigorously.

She'd just checked the price of the X7 online, and it was shocking—over three million.

Realizing she'd been humiliated, Minnie angrily pulled out her phone and dialed Wang Zhisheng: "Zhisheng, hurry over, that He Haoxuan is here."

"What? He Haoxuan dares to come? I'll be right there," Wang Zhisheng said furiously.

He'd thought He Haoxuan was just bluffing, and that when it came time to go to the Star Glory Club, Li Qingwan would say He Haoxuan was busy or something, and the whole matter would be dropped.

So Wang Zhisheng hadn't bothered coming.

But hearing Minnie's report now, he wasn't about to miss the chance to put He Haoxuan in his place.

Not long after, Wang Zhisheng arrived in his car.

When he saw the BMW X7 in front of He Haoxuan, his eyes widened like lanterns.

"Zhisheng, He Haoxuan actually came with a BMW X7. His car is better than yours! What should we do?" Minnie anxiously ran to Wang Zhisheng's side.

She'd wanted to embarrass Li Qingwan, but instead, Li Qingwan had turned the tables on her.

Wang Zhisheng glanced at the BMW and sneered, "Minnie, what are you worried about? Don't you know there's a car rental business these days? A car like this probably doesn't cost much to rent for one night."

"What? So He Haoxuan rented this car? Ha ha ha, that's great!" Minnie shouted excitedly.

Li Qingwan glared at Minnie, "Don't talk nonsense. This is He Haoxuan's car. There's no way he rented it."

Though she was uncertain inside, she refused to admit it.

"If it's rented, we can check the registration," Wang Zhisheng laughed triumphantly.

But Li Qingwan wouldn't give them that chance. She immediately called out, "He Haoxuan, drive us to the Star Glory Club. As for Minnie and the others, we don't need to worry about them."

She'd just had an argument with Minnie, so of course she wouldn't bring them to the Star Glory Club.

Moreover, Li Qingwan was worried that if He Haoxuan really couldn't get into the Star Glory Club, Minnie and the others would mock them.

Better not bring them along; later, she could come up with another excuse and take Xiaojuan and the others to another club.

After all, Xiaojuan and her friends were easy to please—good food and drink were enough to satisfy them.

He Haoxuan drove off, and Minnie stamped her feet in anger, "Zhisheng, did you see how Li Qingwan treats me? You have to help me. As long as you put her in her place for me, you can do whatever you want tonight."

"Whatever I want?" Wang Zhisheng was secretly elated.

There were things Minnie had always refused to do, but now, in her anger, she was promising anything—truly a stroke of luck.

"Yes," Minnie nodded firmly. "I know Li Qingwan best. She definitely won't take Xiaojuan and the others to the Star Glory Club. She'll go to some regular club. As long as we follow her and show up after she enters, we'll humiliate her thoroughly."

The more Minnie spoke, the more excited she became. That way, Li Qingwan would lose face and be unable to show herself.

"Alright, let's follow them now," Wang Zhisheng said, climbing into his car and taking Minnie with him in pursuit.

Li Qingwan sat in the passenger seat, her expression troubled.

Although He Haoxuan said they were going to the Star Glory Club tonight, she didn't believe him.

Someone as useless as He Haoxuan couldn't even get into a regular club, let alone the Star Glory Club.

As the car sped down the street, Li Qingwan's heart raced just as wildly.

"He Haoxuan, where are we going now?" Li Qingwan asked quietly.

"To the Star Glory Club, of course," He Haoxuan replied, feeling there was something off about Li Qingwan tonight—she was asking such foolish questions.

"Go to hell," Li Qingwan snapped. "In a moment, we'll go to the nearby Flaming Club. I brought ten thousand yuan, that should be enough for the night."
