“I just… just heard that the Low Shoulders band from the city was playing here and wanted to come and see,” Jennifer explained in a low voice.
Su scoffed, "I can understand your yearning for the city's glamour and fashion, but you just finished a date with me and then turn around to watch this so-called city band? What? Are you looking down on me?"
"I didn't!" Jennifer hurriedly explained, then whispered, "Didn't you just go on a date with me and then go to see Nedy? You, you don't really like Nedy's type, do you? Why, why does it have to be Nedy?"
Is this jealousy between best friends?
Su suddenly thought of the scene in the movie where Jennifer and Neddy were together, and it suddenly dawned on her that whether Jennifer was jealous or just feeling down and went to the bar to watch the band perform, it didn't seem to be mainly because she went to see Neddy.
Her relationship with Nidi seems to go beyond a close friendship!
No wonder they were all talking so well before the date, but now she's drowning her sorrows in a bar. She's jealous that I went to see Nidi, and the main point is Nidi!
"You can ask Nidi why I sought her out; I'm too lazy to explain." Su downed her drink in one gulp, glanced at the low-shouldered band on stage, and asked, "You like this band?"
"It's alright, a rock band, pretty cool!" Jennifer said casually.
"cool?"
With a slight smile, Su suddenly threw his wine glass at the lead singer of the band who was performing.
"boom!"
The wine glass flew over the crowd and smashed precisely on the lead singer's head. In an instant, the glass shattered, and his face was covered in shards of glass.
The unexpected incident brought the performance to an abrupt halt, leaving neither the band on stage nor the audience in the audience completely unprepared for such a thing to happen.
The lead singer covered his face and glared at the audience with a ferocious expression: "Who, who the hell hit me? Get the hell out here, I'll fucking kill you!"
"Still cool?" Su said with a smile to the dumbfounded Jennifer, lazily raising her hand.
"I smashed it."
Blood blurred his vision, and the lead singer couldn't see clearly what Su looked like, but someone admitted that he jumped off the stage in a fit of rage, pushed through the crowd, and rushed towards Su.
"You fucking...I'll kill you..."
Before the lead singer could finish speaking, he was suddenly grabbed. He glared at the other band members and snarled, "Why are you stopping me? I'm going to kill..."
"He, he seems to be from the Su family."
"Mr. Su, a billionaire."
"The Su family's most extraordinary residence in the world."
Several teammates hurriedly pulled the lead singer aside to remind him, and the lead singer was stunned.
The Su family? That young billionaire, the Su family?
"I don't believe a billionaire would come to a trashy rural bar like this. They all look the same, you must have mistaken him!" the lead singer sneered. "Even if he really is from the Su family, I'll still kill him..."
Before he could finish his harsh words, the lead singer's mouth was covered by his panicked teammates.
Poor guy, it's happened so many times, hasn't it? You've tried to say "kill him" so many times, but you haven't managed to.
Chapter 230 Money really can buy anything!
These underground rock bands, who aspire to fame, may not have much money, but they have a deep understanding of what makes money.
Perhaps because they are face-blind, they are unsure whether this person is actually Su. But even if they can't recognize the face, they can surely recognize the clothes, shoes, and watch.
In an effort to calm the lead singer down and convince him that the person in front of him was indeed Su, the team members began to list evidence all at once.
"I saw his coat in a magazine; it's the latest Louis Vuitton model, priced at $188000."
"The shoes are Gucci, I think they cost around $120000."
"The belt is Hermès."
"Look at his watch, take a closer look, that's a top-of-the-line Vacheron Constantin watch. Do you know how much it costs? At least a million US dollars!"
As they commented, the lead singer gradually calmed down, but the surrounding guests became excited.
It really is the Su family, a multi-millionaire!
A coat costs nearly $20, a pair of shoes costs $12, and a watch on his wrist is worth over a million dollars. This is just too outrageous!
What was originally an ordinary outfit suddenly seemed to have been given a halo; it wasn't just clothes, it was money!
Jennifer stared at Su's emerald green eyes, completely dumbfounded. Su had worn this outfit during their date earlier that day; while she'd guessed it wasn't cheap, she never expected it to be this expensive!
"This coat costs $18?" Jennifer couldn't help but ask Sue.
Su shrugged: "Probably, I never look at the price when I buy things!"
"..."
Never look at the price when buying things? I'm so jealous! This is the life of the rich!
Jennifer felt a little dizzy. If she remembered correctly, Sue had used this jacket as a cushion for her to sit on during their date earlier that day. She hadn't thought much of it then, but now…
"I actually used my $18 coat as a cushion to sit on the floor, oh my god!" Jennifer subconsciously looked at Sue's coat, feeling an urge to take it off and put it at home as an offering.
"Even if you're from the Su family, you can't just smash things at me for no reason, can you? I haven't offended you." The lead singer couldn't help but ask.
Su slowly stood up, casually picked up a wine bottle from the next table, and handed it to the lead singer, saying, "You can throw it back."
Their eyes met. Su's expression remained calm, while the lead singer hesitated as he looked at the bottle being offered to him. Did he dare to take it? Did he dare to smash it?
This guy is a billionaire. If I dared to throw the shoes back, going to jail for life would be the best outcome. He only needs to pay the price of a pair of shoes and countless people will come to teach me a lesson, or even kill me.
"You have three seconds left, this is your only chance."
"three."
"two."
"one."
Disappointed, Su shook her head and smashed the bottle heavily on the lead singer's head.
"boom!"
Caught off guard, the lead singer never expected Su Shi to hit him. He felt dizzy and saw stars, and almost fell over while leaning on his teammates.
"I gave you a chance, but you're useless!"
Under the stunned gazes of everyone, Mrs. Su slowly took out her checkbook, signed a check for $100,000, and tossed it out. "Medical expenses, any problem?"
"Ten, ten thousand US dollars!" the team member shouted as he picked up the check, and the others' eyes lit up when they heard it.
"No, no problem."
Before the lead singer could answer, the other members had already made the decision for him.
After thinking for a moment, Mrs. Su signed another check for $100,000: "Here's another $100,000, do you want it?"
"Of course!"
The team members answered eagerly, and even the lead singer, who had been somewhat indignant, fell silent.
“My friend said your band is really cool, and I think you could do something even cooler.” Sue winked at Jennifer with her arm around her shoulder, then turned to the Low Shoulders band and said, “If you go on stage right now and sing Jingle Bells, this $100,000 is yours.”
Jingle bells...?
A gasp of surprise rippled through the crowd, and the Low Shoulders band members wore strange, unpleasant expressions.
They're a cool rock band, you want us to sing Jingle Bells? Especially with the lead singer's face covered in blood, is it a bit much for them to go on stage and sing Jingle Bells now?
"Three seconds, one chance."
Mrs. Su waved the check in her hand.
"three."
"two."
"Let's sing!" The lead singer gritted his teeth, snatched the check, pushed his teammates aside, and turned back to the stage.
· ····Requesting flowers·· ······
His teammates realized what was happening and quickly followed.
Back on stage, the band members took their places, the lead singer wiped his face, took a deep breath, and began to sing.
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.
We had so much fun skiing, sitting on the sleds.
We rode on a sled, braving the blizzard.
We raced across the fields, laughing and singing.
The sound of horse bells brings joy and happiness.
Skiing tonight was so much fun, let's sing the skiing song!
The dilapidated bar, the listless customers, and the lead singer with a bloodied face singing nursery rhymes on stage—it's a bizarre but truly rare sight.
Have you ever heard the song "Jingle Bells" which costs 100,000 yuan?
. . . 0
I've heard of it!
Sue smiled slightly as she looked at the dumbfounded Jennifer: "See that? That's what you call cool!"
Jennifer nodded subconsciously, feeling as if she had just received a very important life lesson. All that talk about city rock bands and being cool was so naive. True coolness was like Sue's: wearing the most expensive clothes, embracing the most beautiful woman, beating up a so-called cool rock band, and having them cheerfully sing nursery rhymes!
Well, okay, the phrase "the most beautiful woman" sounds a bit boastful, but Jennifer is now truly experiencing what it means to be rich.
Her initial impression of Su's wealth came from the title of billionaire and other news reports. Knowing that he was rich and drove sports cars, she naively thought that this was what a billionaire was.
Now she realized that a billionaire's ordinary outfit might be worth hundreds of thousands, and now she realized that a billionaire can do whatever he wants!
To everyone else, what happened today should have been seen as Su being arrogant and domineering, using money to bully an unknown underground rock band. But Jennifer didn't care. Su did it because she watched their performance and thought they were cool, so could that be considered jealousy? Could it be considered jealousy for her own sake?
If this news gets out, I'll definitely become the center of attention!
Well, Jennifer's old habits have resurfaced, or perhaps this is just how her life is going on. As for her jealousy of Needy before, she's temporarily put it out of her mind, because she hasn't even realized there's anything wrong with her feelings for Needy yet!
Chapter 231 So you're a god? No wonder you're so rich!
