Chapter 125: Being Belittled_2
In an instant!
Many people here.
One by one showed expressions of envy!
After all!
Just a year after graduation, Ronald was earning a monthly salary of sixty thousand dollars.
This was a massive wealth in the eyes of many!
"Haha! My career progress is just so-so! But for the portion of the gift money, let's have Bright decide.
You and Samuel were pretty close friends in college, also back then, Samuel did help you quite a bit, didn't he?
How much gift money are you planning to give at his wedding this time?"
In an instant.
Everyone's gaze shifted to Bright.
"But to be frank with you, Bright, you shouldn't overdo it with your gift giving since you are unemployed at the moment, right? If you give too much, I'm afraid you will only be left with the northwest wind to drink next month."
Following these words, the whole scene erupted into laughter.
Ronald cleverly shifted the attention to Bright.
In doing so, he secretly trod on Bright's foot.
After all, under such circumstances, it wouldn't be appropriate if the amount of Bright's gift was too low.
If it's around three to five hundred, then all he could afford next month would be the northwest wind.
By then, Ronald could elevate himself by using Bright's situation.
As for three to four thousand, it would seem that Bright was deliberately showing off, making it hard for the other classmates.
No matter what happens, Ronald could always manage to plunge the knife in sharply.
However, at this moment, Bright appeared completely relaxed.
He said, "I really don't plan on getting involved in this, you guys can sort it out yourselves. After all, I have provided the car this time."
With just a simple sentence, he stepped aside.
This causes quite a stir among the people present.
With this situation,
They had not expected it at all.
But then, Ronald sneered, saying,
"So you even have a car huh, and yet you didn't bring a gift? Do you think this is the 80s?"
In his memory, bringing a gift when bringing out a new car was a thing of the 80s.
After all, back then, very few people had cars. But now, who didn't have the money to buy a car?
Suddenly, many of the other students at the table, upon watching Bright's expression, looked a bit disdainful.
But Bright, on the other hand, couldn't be bothered to explain.
As for Nannie who was there, she directly started to express her dissatisfaction.
"No way! What do you mean, Ronald? Back when we were in college, it was understandable that you disapproved of Bright.
It's been over a year since we graduated from university! As soon as you meet Bright, you start to ridicule and mock him!
Now you are masquerading in the name of 'Kindly helping him find a job', just to deride him? What's your intention, isn't this beneath you?"
After these words fell, there was some awkwardness in the room, dropping to absolute zero!
However, at this moment, Gracie scampered over.
"Bright, the bride's bouquet has been left in your car, can you come with me to get it?"
"Sure, I will HK down with you to get it now."
Bright nodded his head, and then left the table with Gracie.
After retrieving the bouquet, the wedding officially began.
Once all the procedures were completed, the bride and groom began to toast the guests.
Soon, it was time to toast at Bright's table.
After the toast,
Samuel was smiling, looking at Bright, and said,
"Bright, I really have to thank you for today's event! If it weren't for the wedding cars you helped me get, the wedding wouldn't have been able to take place today."
As Samuel's words fell,
Everyone at the table was taken aback.
What did that mean?
Without Bright's cars, the wedding wouldn't have been able to take place?
Immediately, one of the classmates was puzzled, asking,
"Samuel, what do you mean by that? Without Bright, your wedding wouldn't have been possible?
Isn't it just a car? If you are short of one, couldn't you just rent one?"
Samuel was startled, and said,
"Just one car? Really? Didn't Bright tell you? The eighteen Rolls-Royce phantoms i had as wedding cars today were all provided by Bright!"
Silence!
A deathly silence!
At this moment, everyone was quietly staring at Samuel, their faces rigid.
The girl who was sitting beside Bright before, her throat was a little dry, remarked,
"Samuel, you are not joking, right? Bright, he…"
Seeing the expressions of the old classmates here, Samuel was taken aback.
Then, with some surprise, said,
"Don't you guys know? The wedding cars today are all from Bright's company!"
"Company?"
At this moment, Ronald was slightly curious, and asked,
"That is to say, the car is not under Bright's name?"
"Exactly."
Nodding, Samuel did not refute.
As these words fell.
Everyone also let out a sigh of relief.
Then, expressions of disdain reappeared on their faces.
They looked at the Bright there, saying,
"Pfft! I thought these eighteen cars all belong to Bright!"
"Ah, indeed! Samuel, next time you speak, be more specific!"
"But thinking about it, he is just a poor lad, where does he get the money to buy 18 phantoms?"
"Hey, but Samuel, what's with the company you just mentioned?
I remember just now, didn't Bright say that the company he was working for just collapsed and now he is unemployed?
So, what's the deal with this so-called company then?"
As these words were spoken.
Everyone's attention was immediately drawn.
The look on Samuel's face also became increasingly peculiar.
It seemed that Bright didn't tell these guys anything, right?
Under this odd expression.
Here's Samuel, so to speak.
"This car doesn't really belong to him, it belongs to his company.
After all, Bright is a shareholder of that company…
So, to say that Bright is unemployed, isn't wrong."
Once these words were out.
Everyone was stunned.
They sat quietly here, as if the air itself had frozen.
Everyone was somewhat dazed and bewildered!
The car belonged to the company, and Bright was a shareholder in the company.
In a way, the car indeed belongs to Bright!
This…
