77: Chapter 077: Damn, Why Is This Alcohol So Expensive?

He had just sat down not long ago when someone rushed over to toast Ning Fan.

“Bro Fan, without you here today, we would have been miserable!

Now we can still get into a VIP room that only the big shots can enter.

Let me toast you a glass,” he said and drained his glass.

Ning Fan just smiled faintly.

But those classmates didn’t stop their bootlicking and flattery, even though Ning Fan paid little attention to them, they kept on praising him continuously.

They called him ‘Bro Ning,’ ‘Bro Fan’ with great intimacy, as if he were more of a brother to them than their own siblings.

Many people also thought highly of Ning Fan and Lan Kexin as a couple.

A talented man and a beautiful woman, truly a match made in heaven…

Ning Fan didn’t really care.

He signaled to Lan Kexin, as if to show, “See how qualified I am as your boyfriend?

Full set in acting, and I slap faces quite hard.”

Ning Fan whispered into Lan Kexin’s ear with a thick face, “With my entrance like this, I’ve forever solved these people’s thoughts about you.

Impressive, isn’t it?”

Lan Kexin looked at Ning Fan with displeasure; this guy really had a thick face.

But Ning Fan was right—none of these people dared to offend Ning Fan now.

As Ning Fan’s “girlfriend,” no one else dared to come close, fearing they’d end up like a beaten dog.

Lan Kexin thought to herself, this guy is becoming more and more enigmatic.

What exactly is his identity?

The classmates in the VIP room chatted enthusiastically.

Only Zhang Zhisheng, Wang Jiangtao, and others remained silent, finally feeling the chill of human relationships as they found themselves ignored.

Back during the banquet, he had been a shining star, with everyone surrounding him.

Now, he seemed like an ill-fated star, avoided by everyone.

The classmates’ rapid change of attitude caught Zhang Zhisheng off guard, and he was visibly displeased.

Although Ning Fan was indeed awesome, indeed had status, indeed held power…

Okay, he admitted he was completely no match for Ning Fan.

But seeing everyone fawning over Ning Fan and not him anymore, it made him very jealous and upset.

Seeing Ning Fan chatting and laughing with Lan Kexin made him even more stifled, making Zhang Zhisheng feel like Ning Fan was doing it on purpose to irritate him!

He silently ate his food, but his stomach was full of suppressed anger.

“Hey, I tell you, Boss Zhang, these dishes aren’t something ordinary people can enjoy.

You should try more, lest you never get the chance again,” Cheng Min said sarcastically, twisting her upper body towards Zhang Zhisheng with disdain.

Cheng Min’s taunting tone angered Zhang Zhisheng, but facing a woman, he couldn’t lash out and had to hold back his rage.

He couldn’t even pick up the dishes anymore, so he quietly selected a bottle of wine that seemed quite decent.

After opening that bottle of high-grade wine, he leaned over to sniff it—fragrant, mellow, and sweet.

This was definitely not ordinary wine.

Compared to the wine he had drunk before, it was like heaven and earth; he had never drunk such wine and didn’t even know its price.

He turned around and looked at a female waiter behind him, dressed in elegant, refined clothes, and then pointed to the bottle of wine he had just opened.

“How much is this wine?”

The waiter smiled gently and replied, “Three hundred eighty thousand.”

Pfft…

Zhang Zhisheng was so startled that his hand trembled, nearly spilling the wine, but luckily, realizing it was more expensive than gold, he dared not spill it.

Damn, why is this wine so expensive?

Three hundred eighty thousand was not a small amount for Zhang Zhisheng.

His company’s annual turnover was in the millions, but that was just the company’s cash flow, not money he could use.

Moreover, his company was a partnership.

Earning three million a year was pretty good, and with the shareholders’ end-of-year bonus, he made only about a million a year.

Although to others, he was still considered successful.

But this single bottle of wine cost freaking three hundred and eighty thousand!

After a year of hard work, he couldn’t even afford these three bottles.

Zhang Zhisheng sighed silently, he absolutely couldn’t afford this.

A classmate nearby heard it and was just as dumbfounded, staring at the bottle of wine blankly.

This bottle costs three hundred eighty thousand?!

Realizing something, that classmate immediately mocked Zhang Zhisheng, saying,

“Zhang, have you lost your mind?

This bottle is three hundred eighty thousand, can you even afford it?”

Zhang Zhisheng suddenly heard someone yelling at him, and it made his entire face turn green with anger.

That classmate had been kissing his ass all along, and he had enjoyed it, yet now he was yelling at him, damn it…

“If you can’t afford it, then don’t open it.

Why not go back and drink plain water?

It’s also a beverage, isn’t it?”

On the other side, Cheng Min was also continuously mocking him, and even less politely.

Another classmate chimed in, “Don’t worry, someone is treating him, of course, he should open the best wine.”

One classmate after another mocked and ridiculed Zhang Zhisheng, infuriating him so much that he couldn’t even lash out.

Zhao Xiaoyuan glanced at Zhang Zhisheng, who had been overly fawning over him previously.

But he quickly shrugged off the burden.

Since he could only choose between Ning Fan and Zhang Zhisheng, he definitely chose Brother Fan.

He instantly joined the group that was mocking Zhang Zhisheng.

Zhao Xiaoyuan jumped up, “Zhang, are you fucking stupid?

Don’t you know this private room was opened because of Master Ying showing face for Brother Fan?

You really don’t see yourself as an outsider, huh?

Opening such wine, have you never drunk alcohol before?”

Zhang Zhisheng was furious, Zhao Xiaoyuan had previously addressed him as ‘Brother Sheng’, and now he had become just ‘Zhang’?

Zhang Zhisheng also cursed back at Zhao Xiaoyuan, “Zhao Xiaoyuan, you opportunist, don’t think you can please Ning Fan by acting like this!”

Having said that, he didn’t forget to kick Zhao Xiaoyuan, sending him straight to the ground.

Zhao Xiaoyuan angrily got up, then walked over to stand beside Ning Fan, pointing directly at Zhang Zhisheng.

“Brother Fan, Kexin, it’s this guy surnamed Zhang.

Before you arrived, he set you up, saying if Kexin brought a boyfriend, I should relentlessly mock him!”

“Moreover, the earlier private room was rented, this damn Zhang Zhisheng is just a poser.”

Suddenly, all classmates turned to look at Zhang Zhisheng.

Ning Fan didn’t really care, but Lan Kexin could not ignore it and glared fiercely at Zhang Zhisheng.

“Zhang Zhisheng, how could you do this?

You’ve turned a class reunion into this mess…”

Lan Kexin was so angry she didn’t know how to continue.

Ning Fan put his arm around the trembling Lan Kexin and smiled, “Kexin, why be angry for him, it’s not worth it.”

Lan Kexin then calmed down a bit.

Zhang Zhisheng, seeing that Zhao Xiaoyuan had exposed him, was even more furious and sneered at Zhao Xiaoyuan,

“A poser?

Then why did you keep praising me?

Isn’t it because you were after my money?

You sure know how to flatter!”

Zhang Zhisheng walked straight towards Zhao Zhiyuan, ready to teach Zhao Xiaoyuan a lesson!

Zhao Xiaoyuan was right, the previous scheme was indeed set by him, and it was intended to embarrass Ning Fan…

But Zhao Xiaoyuan, this guy who betrayed his master for glory, had so quickly sold him out, he really needed to be taught a lesson.

“Zhao Xiaoyuan, I’ll skin you alive!”
