Cosmic Trading System

"If you're not well-informed, don't spout nonsense." Qi Nan's words crashed into Shu Lee's face like a slap.

Just moments ago, Lee was basking in self-satisfaction, thinking he was incredibly observant for having discerned that Lin Yun was wearing a knockoff. But instantly, Qi Nan's remark hit him like a blow to his face, causing it to turn crimson red and burn with embarrassment.

Could the outfit truly be made by CK?

He didn't doubt Qi Nan's words. He could only ever touch, study, or perhaps splurge on CK clothes with reservation. However, Qi Nan could easily afford them—Qi Nan frequently wore luxury brands, so there was no doubt that he could recognize the latest CK designs.

Luckily, Qi Nan's following words were extremely astonishing.

Instantly, all eyes were drawn to Lin Yun.

No one noticed his embarrassment.

Feeling both relieved and irked,

Qi Nan had a knack for grabbing attention whenever he entered a room, becoming the center of attention. This was truly detestable.

However, the silver lining was that Qi Nan lacked emotional intelligence. His mockery of Xia Qingqing's boyfriend only meant that he would be the one to take the first hit.

Perhaps this was the cost of Qi Nan investing so much effort in pursuing Qingqing?

Spending considerable effort and then experiencing failure would often lead to frustration and anger—a typical human reaction.

Perfect, that worked to his advantage.

With the business troubles at Zhang Tianyu's household and the negative impression Qi Nan provided Qingqing, his odds at winning Qingqing over were increasing.

The low murmur of conversation among the students around them, coupled with Qi Nan's recent words,

let him know that Lin Yun had only been able to afford the clothes at a great personal cost.

So what if the outfit was worth over eighty thousand?

He could afford many such outfits!

At this moment, he had completely dismissed Lin Yun from his mind.

If one had to go to such lengths to afford an outfit worth eighty thousand, then their family's financial situation and their personal circumstances must be far from impressive.

"You want to patronize my business? I'm afraid you won't be able to afford it!" Amidst the whispers around him and Qi Nan's arrogant gaze, Lin Yun's smile faded as he retorted mildly.

He had come to this reunion to make Qingqing happy, not to upset her. If the other party's words were only mildly disparaging, he would've overlooked it for the sake of Qingqing's friendship with them. But opposing him so directly, if he were to let it pass blindly, then he wouldn't be much of a man!

Qi Nan?

Was he the 'Great Talent Qi' who had been pursuing Qingqing?

He was curious to see what Qi Nan was capable of.

"Ha! I can't afford it?" Qi Nan laughed out loud.

"Do you know how much this outfit I am wearing costs? It's 880,000 for the entire set! Just the cost of this outfit is likely more than you earn in several years. It's ten times the price of the outfit you had to go to such lengths to afford!" Qi Nan pointed at his clothes and sneered.

"Qi Nan's outfit costs 880,000?"

"Gasp—"

"Heaven!"

Many people around them gasped.

A clothing set worth 880,000 was more than many could earn in several years.

Even though they were students of prestigious universities with high academic credentials, they couldn't dare say they could save 880,000 within ten years upon graduation.

Life really was incomparable from one person to another!

Although Qi Nan's words were arrogant, he was entitled to be so!

Rich first-generation folks are impressive, spending the money they earned however they like. Many rich second-generation kids probably wouldn't dare to dress like this!

Lin Mengmeng was also surprised.

Even though the Gold Sword Security Company was started by her family, their household had a lot of expenses. She was the only child of the Lin Family, the only girl of her generation, showered with much love and care. She had to think carefully before buying a bathtub for a million, not to mention a set of clothes priced at 880,000. She might not even have the heart to buy them.

This Qi Nan was really a big spender, daring to spend so much money on a set of clothes.

"Do you know what car this key belongs to? Emperor Ling X9! Top-tier model! The cost of one car landed is 3.8 million! You say I can't hold up your business?" Qi Nan waved the car key in his hand and sneered.

He was genuinely angry. Otherwise, he wouldn't mock Xia Qingqing's boyfriend to his face like this.

However, having started, he intended to finish it.

He planned to change his style to win over Xia Qingqing.

The male protagonists in the novels he wrote and read, weren't they all superb, surrounded by beautiful women? In reality, his pursuit of one girl gave him so much trouble. Today, he decided to try the style of those male protagonists from his novels and those he read about!

"Emperor Ling X9!"

"3.8 million!"

Looking at the car key in Qi Nan's hand, many people around were excited.

Compared with that, Shu Lee's previously flaunted Emperor Ling X3 didn't amount to much. It immediately faded into insignificance.

Shu Lee clenched his fists in the crowd. His face, which had just returned to normal, was again flushing red.

Qi Nan really was his nemesis, slapping him in the face repeatedly.

Yaoyao sighed internally.

Lin Yun and Qi Nan were indeed incomparable.

A poor boy from the countryside, with few talents, earned his first million after five years of hard work. Unexpected incidents had cost him his five years of achievement…

A university student from a prestigious university, talented and the author of several best-selling books while only in his third undergraduate year. His monthly income was almost a million, with vast prospects for his future...

How could they be compared?

Among those pursuing Xia Qingqing, she had initially favored Qi Nan. Unfortunately, Xia Qingqing had only eyes for Lin Yun.

Now, Qi Nan was furious and publicly embarrassing others. This was truly difficult to resolve.

Even if the incident passed, both Lin Yun and Xia Qingqing would have lost face.

She even felt a little resentful. Since the incident had already occurred, she had just spoken to Qi Nan. They could have dropped the topic there, and Lin Yun did not have to insist on retorting.

And now, Qi Nan was flaunting again, making Lin Yun and Xia Qingqing look even worse.

Most importantly, as Qi Nan kept on pressing, whatever Lin Yun was about to say was likely to further embarrass him.

For a moment, she regretted having insisted on Xia Qingqing attending this gathering.

The main reason was because her boyfriend had told her that by letting Xia Qingqing attend this kind of gathering and meet some nice guys, she might not want to be with Lin Yun any longer. Breaking up earlier on, while they were only beginning, would minimize the hurt.

"I said, you can't."

Lin Yun, however, looked calmly at Qi Nan's show-off and spoke indifferently.

As if Qi Nan's previous flaunting was nothing.

In truth, what Qi Nan flaunted really meant nothing to Lin Yun.

A set of clothes worth more than 800,000, was that expensive?

The protective clothes he bought from the Cosmic Trading System, even those with the prices calculated in Spirit Crystals and converted to Huaxia Currency, are worth billions.

He already had several Emperor Ling X9s. The customized Emperor Ling X9 he usually used was even more expensive, costing more than five million as a personal favor.

The wine he usually drank was priced at more than ten million Huaxia Currency.

The way the guy was showing off to him was actually quite laughable.
