Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

Seeing Zhong Yuchen enraged, Yue Hongxin on the side took a deep breath and persuaded,

"Mr. Zhong, why bother fussing over him so much?"

"In fact, I hadn't expected that, in some ways, he would be more excellent than you."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yuchen's expression darkened even more: "What do you mean by that?"

His eyes turned cold, startling Yue Hongxin who then patted her chest and said with a tense voice,

"Mr. Zhong, you've misunderstood me. I'm asking you to calm down. A poor boy like him isn't worth your anger."

"I can see that Yingxue really likes him, but a penniless guy like him doesn't deserve Yingxue."

"Just take the gift for example, you gave Yingxue a bracelet worth ten million."

"And that Lin Mo, he just gave her a rotten glass bottle, and who knows what dark stuff is inside."

"With this alone, you've already won against him. Nowadays, not many girls aren't materialistic."

"Besides, it's something worth ten million. Just because she didn't accept it before doesn't mean she won't like it later. Trust me, between the bracelet and that glass bottle, she will eventually choose the former."

Hearing this, a smile spread across Zhong Yuchen's face.

Indeed, in today's society, it's not that those girls are materialistic, but who doesn't want a better, more perfect life?

Soon, Yue Hongxin walked up to Jiang Yingxue and pulled her to a corner of the wall:

"Yingxue, I have something to tell you."

"What are you doing?"

Jiang Yingxue shook off Yue Hongxin's hand, her pretty face showing a hint of anger: "What do you want to say?"

Yue Hongxin glared at Lin Mo, noticing that he had no interest in listening to her conversation with Jiang Yingxue. Then she said to Jiang Yingxue, with a tone of frustrated expectations,

"Yingxue, I hope you can see the reality. You and that guy named Lin Mo will never find happiness together."

"Is that what you wanted to tell me?"

Jiang Yingxue smirked coldly, staring straight at Yue Hongxin: "Happy or not, that's my business. As long as I'm with the person I love, I'm happy every day."

"Haha."

Yue Hongxin also sneered, her tone extremely pragmatic,

"Yingxue, perhaps you don't understand now, but one day you will understand how fragile love is in the face of material needs!"

"When you face life, need money, but just can't get it, that helpless moment will make you realize how worthless so-called integrity, dignity, and honor really are—how laughable they are!"

"I once tried to live a happy life with a boy I deeply loved."

"But what's the reality? The boy I loved most in my life, his family has no car, no house, he can't give me a happy life, nor take care of my parents, his monthly salary is just three to five thousand, I couldn't see any future, any hope!"

"By then, you'll understand how effortlessly love crumbles before money!"

Yue Hongxin spoke very realistically and aptly to the harsh realities!

Perhaps seventy percent of girls would agree with her.

Faced with a harsh society, most would choose a man who loves them and can provide the life they want, rather than a mutually loving, but impoverished, pitiful romantic partner.

Jiang Yingxue listened intently to every word Yue Hongxin said, and then, with a firm tone, she replied,

"I don't know how much suffering, how much torment you've endured."

"But let me tell you, I've had it as bad as you, if not worse!"

"Back when I graduated from university, had a falling out with my parents, I came to Lin City alone, helpless, blindly searching for jobs, being scammed, being cheated!!"

"I went through a time where I ate only one meal every two days, but I didn't let the harshness of reality strip away my dignity or change my original intentions."

"I told myself, no matter how cruel the world, no matter how lowly I am, even if all I faced was darkness, as long as there was a sliver of light in my heart, I would persist without hesitation until the moment I saw it again!"

"You are you, and I am me. You have ultimately changed and are no longer the Yue Hongxin I knew."

"Also, this glass bottle and its contents that you look down upon, I actually treasure them. Whether they have value or use, to me, it's an unforgettable memory, a gift."

Jiang Yingxue stared at the glass bottle, a sincere, happy smile appearing on her lovely face.

"Jiang Yingxue! I can't believe it; after all I've said, you're still not listening. There's an opportunity right in front of you to instantly achieve fame and wealth, and you don't treasure it, but instead, you fancy this poor boy!"

"What's so good about this glass bottle!"

Yue Hongxin's face was filled with irritation, and then, she even snatched the glass bottle from Jiang Yingxue's hand, poised to smash it on the ground.

Snap!

But she never expected that Jiang Yingxue would slap her across the face, reclaim the glass bottle, and say in a cold tone,

"Yue Hongxin, let's not be friends anymore!"

"What… what did you say?" Yue Hongxin was in disbelief. Jiang Yingxue was actually willing to sever ties with her over a worthless glass bottle and a black, mud-like object!

"I said, we're no longer friends."

Jiang Yingxue's tone was no longer polite. Previously she could endure, but Yue Hongxin actually wanted to smash the gift Lin Mo gave her right in front of her. This was something Jiang Yingxue could no longer tolerate.

"Fine! Jiang Yingxue, don't you regret this! When you face difficulties in the future, see who else will help you!"

"All because of a broken glass bottle and a lump of mud? What's so great about that?"

"It's not even one thousandth as good as the bracelet Mr. Zhong gave you!"

Not far away, Lin Mo's cold eyes briefly swept over Yue Hongxin. It was good for Jiang Yingxue to end her relationship with such an ignorant woman.

Perhaps, a friend too consumed by power might one day bring her great harm.

Yue Hongxin was extremely disdainful. In her opinion, what value could a lump of mud have?

She guessed it was not even worth a hundred dollars, yet Jiang Yingxue treasured it as if it were gold, which was laughable!

Not just her, Zhong Yuchen's expression was grim too. He could clearly see how much Jiang Yingxue cherished the gift Lin Mo had given her.

Zhong Yuchen scoffed, his face cold. He had given a bracelet worth tens of millions, yet this woman did not appreciate it, truly blind!

Thump!

However, the very next moment, everyone heard a crisp sound and instinctively turned around.

A middle-aged man in a gray suit was kneeling in front of Jiang Yingxue, his eyes full of supplication and desire:

"Miss, please… please!"

"Could you sell me the Pills in your hand?"

"I am willing to offer fifty million!"

What… what?

In a flash, the expressions of Yue Hongxin and Zhong Yuchen became incredibly wonderful.

It was not just them; everyone present was stunned and confused!

Lin Mo glanced lightly at the middle-aged man, internally chuckling. The man indeed had a keen eye, recognizing it as his Eternal Youth Pill.

However, what surprised Lin Mo was that the market price of the Eternal Youth Pill had skyrocketed to fifty million a pill!
