Chapter 175 Chapter 175 Invitation to Dinner
At this moment, everyone was looking at Han Xuewei, who stood at the center, poised and graceful.
Suddenly, they all understood, how could the school beauty possibly marry an ordinary man?
"Oh my god, I can't believe the school beauty's husband is actually a billionaire worth tens of billions!"
"Yeah, who would've thought her husband was that rich? But I saw it earlier too, her husband is indeed very handsome. That means the luxury items given at the wedding were all real!"
"Exactly! To buy things worth several hundred million as if it's nothing, it seems it wasn't an exaggeration."
"No way, what are you guys talking about? How could anyone give gifts worth several hundred million?"
"It's true, I saw the pictures posted on the forum at that time, I couldn't believe it... but now it seems to be real!"
Some had already set their sights on the accessories Han Xuewei was wearing today. Unbeknownst to Han Xuewei herself, her necklace was a nationally-limited edition, priced at tens of millions.
But a female classmate immediately exclaimed, "Look! Isn't that the nationally-limited custom Holy Maiden crystal?"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze towards Han Xuewei.
Then someone spoke up, "It's indeed the Holy Maiden crystal, I can't be wrong! Under the light, the Holy Maiden crystal seems dim, but in areas with no light, it shines incredibly brilliantly, something ordinary diamonds can't achieve."
Only then did the crowd realize that the necklace Han Xuewei was wearing was indeed in that state.
At this time, Han Xuewei herself was also slightly astonished, she had not expected Lin Yi to give her such a valuable item.
Previously, she had only worn it as a normal necklace.
Hearing these words, people were very surprised and began discussing among themselves.
On the side, Lin Zhiyuan also displayed a look of shock, he had thought his own level was quite high-end, but had not expected that among his classmates there would be a boss worth tens of billions.
How could this be possible?
Wouldn't his salary of tens of thousands seem laughable in comparison?
And now, seeing Lin Jie's indifferent demeanor, does that mean Lin Jie is the brother of the tycoon worth tens of billions?
And also the boyfriend of Qin Xiaoxu, how could this be possible?
They were still in university and Lin Yi already owned tens of billions in wealth, completely overturning his understanding.
Moreover, there had been news of hard times for Lin Yi's family business before, so how did it suddenly turn into owning billions in assets?
Therefore, at this moment, everyone showed a look of surprise, while Li Lanxue and Shen Wenjun naturally did not believe it.
Li Lanxue looked at Lin Jie and snorted coldly, "Who are you? Who let you spout nonsense here!"
Hearing this, Lin Jie couldn't help but roll his eyes at her and retorted, "I am Lin Yi's cousin, and I'm naturally aware of how many businesses my brother has. Moreover, you can check on Heavenly Eye, no need to question me here!"
Upon hearing this, everyone showed a look of surprise
Shen Wenjun was also somewhat displeased at this moment and directly said, "The things you're saying have no basis, and besides, who knows if that information he posted was forged."
"What did I fabricate?"
Just at that moment, a chilly voice rang out. Lin Yi held in his hand a small cake, the very one he had taken quite some time to select, finally settling on Han Xuewei's favorite flavor, even going so far as to sprinkle it with some extra toppings himself.
At that moment, he heard the crowd chattering around him, and the subject of their conversation was none other than his own affairs. Nevertheless, he strolled over with an air of nonchalance.
He directly handed the cake to Han Xuewei and said, "This is your favorite strawberry cake. I didn't make it too sweet, so you can eat it first."
Experience new tales on empire
Han Xuewei was somewhat surprised upon hearing this, as Lin Yi completely ignored the people around them.
Many nearby wore looks of envy.
Yet Shen Wenjun felt humiliated, his eyes gradually reddening as he huffed, "We're all adults here; there's no need to lie in this setting. Furthermore, the idea that a mere university student would possess a fortune of billions is utterly absurd. Supreme Grade supermarkets are not open to just anyone as shareholders."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi turned his head and glared coldly at Shen Wenjun.
At that moment, Shen Wenjun, feeling the weight of Lin Yi's stare, grew somewhat irritated, and Li Lanxue stepped forward to say, "Lin Yi, there's really no need for you to argue. If you're capable, why not just cover tonight's bill? Then I might actually believe you have some power!"
Li Lanxue spoke with full confidence, looking down upon someone who would mooch even a high-end black truffle steak.
She was certain that Lin Yi simply couldn't afford it and that eventually, Han Xuewei would have to step in to deal with the aftermath.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi replied straightforwardly, "My fellow students, go ahead and place your orders. I'll cover the bill for everyone tonight!"
Lin Yi spoke coolly, and Han Xuewei immediately reached out to grasp his hand, signaling him not to do this.
After all, it wasn't their group's gathering today, so why should he foot the bill?
And making such a display was hardly going to win Lin Yi any favors.
But Lin Yi simply didn't care about the money, and he snorted confidently, "It's no big deal, Vivi. These are your classmates; it's nothing to treat them once in a while!"
Lin Yi's words reached everyone's ears, and all were struck with astonishment.
This was a top-notch hotel with no small tab; it carried many luxury foods as well.
At first, the classmates hesitated to order, but after Lin Yi's declaration, settling the bill would take at least half a million.
Lin Yi was just a university student who hadn't graduated yet, without even a job, and his classmates were likewise skeptical about his alleged multibillion fortune.
In the meantime, Shen Wenjun, seeing that Lin Yi was provoked into taking the bait, revealed a smug expression and said, "Classmate Lin Yi, you really surprise me. Even if our family's company is worth a few billion in the market, claiming that you have tens of billions is a bit much, even for saving face. There's really no need for you to cover tonight's meal."
Shen Wenjun's words were clear and filled with mockery; he just wanted Lin Yi to admit his lack of ability.
But at that moment, Lin Yi shook his head and replied indifferently, "I'll cover it. Isn't that what you all want? Well, it's settled—tonight I'm treating!"
Upon hearing these words, Shen Wenjun's face grew even more unsightly. He had been coddled from a young age, always a figure of affluence and status.
Yet Lin Yi had casually claimed to have a fortune of tens of billions, something Shen Wenjun would never believe.
Many classmates shared his perspective. Tens of billions was just too preposterous, but Shen Wenjun's family wealth was well known to them all.
