Obsessive Tycoon and His Swan Girl
Chapter 106 - 106 106 Scrimp and Save for a Big Villa

Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Scrimp and Save for a Big Villa Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Scrimp and Save for a Big Villa Hearing that statement, Jiang Fanyue was almost certain that Xu Jin wouldn’t name his friend but would reveal their seating position.

The best seats at the concert were in the inner field, and just by mentioning that location with a few words, it would ensure at least several years of steady development for her and the Jiang Family.

Some of Xu Jin’s fans sitting around Jiang Fanyue recognized her and cast envious glances her way.

Jiang Zhe in the VIP box maintained his usual expression when he heard Xu Jin say, “… she’s sitting in the VIP box. I hope she and her friend have a pleasant evening. I also hope everyone here tonight is happy!”

As the words ended, Xia Enci and Xiao Meng exchanged looks and exclaimed with surprise, “I didn’t hear wrong, right? Xu Jin is talking about our position!”

“That means he must be talking about Jiang Zhe!” Song Xingyu’s face was filled with joy, “No wonder we got arranged to sit here! I just knew it!”

Jiang Zhe uttered “Oh” indifferently, “I hadn’t originally planned to come to the venue.”

Mainly because he was afraid it would be noisy.

Xia Enci mocked, “That’s too Versailles of you, Xiaozhe!”

Jiang Fanyue, who was sitting in the inner field seats with her face flushed with excitement, suddenly felt deflated by those words. Slowly, her color faded to white, then to ashen.

The fans around her all went “Oh” in unison, whispering, “So Xu Jin’s friend is in the VIP box!”

“Yeah, of course, friends get different treatment from fans.”

“That’s the real friend regarded by Xu Jin! Xu Jin is indeed like that, he’s always very attentive to his true friends.”

These words didn’t discuss Jiang Fanyue, but hearing them made her feel every word was piercing to the ear and painfully embarrassing.

She clenched her hands tightly, remembering how she had sworn confidently on Weibo and to her classmates that the tickets were given to her by Xu Jin.

The thought of facing so many people when she returned made her complexion grow even paler.

Although Xu Jin hadn’t openly denied that she was his friend, according to what he said, how could others not hear that Jiang Fanyue, who was riding on his coattails for publicity, was being excluded?

As the concert resumed its songs on stage and the surroundings were still lively, all Jiang Fanyue could hear was buzzing in her ears, unable to listen to anything else.

Indeed, Xu Jin’s remarks were recorded by fans at the venue and posted online, and ridicule had already started spreading.

“So funny, some people spend all day hyping themselves up as Xu Jin’s friends and claiming they got tickets from him, but his real friend isn’t sitting in the inner field; they’re in a special VIP box! Yes, I’m talking about this ‘friend’ @JiangFanyue”

“That’s such a slap in the face. If it were me, I would have just died on the spot! But perhaps @JiangFanyue has thicker skin and doesn’t mind, otherwise, she wouldn’t have kept seeking attention repeatedly.”

“My gosh, my toes have already dug out a mansion.”

“I’ve been wanting to say this before, who in the world would elevate a normal collaboration from years ago to the level of best friends. Well now, Xu Jin has spoken for me.”

“Speaking of which, Xu Jin probably doesn’t even know this person, right? He just wanted to thank his invited friend genuinely, which is why he would say that. And his real friend never uses Xu Jin’s name online to boost their own value.”

“Exactly right, the Jiang family that now has to rely on plagiarizing new clothing designs can only cling to Xu Jin’s coattails for a bit of popularity. Speaking of which, the Jiang Family’s clothes used to be so nice, how could they fall so low?”

These fans had long held back their words and finally took the opportunity to speak out, with many directly tagging @JiangFanyue, blowing up her face figuratively.

…

The concert ended.

Xia Enci was completely satisfied, laughing with Xiao Meng until their cheeks hurt.

“Going back?” Jiang Zhe asked.

“Mm-hmm, we still want to go to the back door to send Xu Jin off in his car.”

Sending off Xu Jin in his car was really just watching his vehicle depart from the scene.

This was a necessary procedure after chasing a concert.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you guys at the main entrance,” Jiang Zhe picked up his backpack.

Just about to leave the private room, the agent hurried over and said, “Xiaozhe, Xu Jin is here!”

“Huh?” Jiang Zhe spread his hands, somewhat helplessly; he had never seen Xu Jin with the self-awareness of an idol, always running around everywhere.

“He said he came to see if you guys wanted autographs or something,” the agent said.

Xia Enci and Xiao Meng were already petrified.

Xu Jin?

Coming over in person?

Autographs?

The two forgot to scream and just held hands tightly, gripping each other to confirm it wasn’t a dream.

No sooner had the agent finished speaking, a person wearing a cap, scarf, and mask appeared.

He took off his gear in front of Jiang Zhe, and his brilliance illuminated the entire VIP room.

Shocked by the sudden appearance of such beauty, everyone forgot how to speak and express themselves.

Only Jiang Zhe, who was used to Xu Jin appearing like this and was accustomed to his face, looked calm.

Xu Jin smiled and said, “Thanks everyone for coming. How about I treat you all to supper tonight?”

The agent quickly whispered a reminder to him, “You’ve got two interviews, already scheduled.”

Xia Enci reacted as if awakened from a dream, her face flushed as she said, “You should focus on your work first; work is important.”

The main reason was that she and Xiao Meng didn’t know how to face their idol up close like this.

“Alright, I feel rejected. Then I’m off to work,” said Xu Jin, waving to everyone.

The agent hurriedly followed him, saying, “When you mentioned your friend coming over at the concert, you gave me a scare; I thought you were going to talk about Jiang Fanyue.”

The agent had even thought of a PR statement to cover for him, fearing he would publicly mention Jiang Fanyue was not his friend.

Xu Jin asked, “Who is Jiang Fanyue?”

The agent: “…”

Okay, it looked like Xu Jin truly didn’t care about Jiang Fanyue; his speech tonight was purely for Jiang Zhe’s sake.

The agent silently mourned for Jiang Fanyue for a minute; she had hyped herself so much, yet Xu Jin didn’t even remember her name.

It was a long while after Xu Jin left that Xia Enci and Xiao Meng finally reacted, their screams piercing the roof.

After they had finished screaming, Song Xingyu shouted, “Weren’t we talking about autographs? We forgot to get them signed!”

Instantly, the room was filled with groans.

Jiang Zhe said indifferently, “Next time.”

Thinking about how well Jiang Zhe knew Xu Jin, everyone was not too worried about the chance to get autographs, so they set aside their regrets and chatted as they walked out.

Xia Enci and Xiao Meng also didn’t go to see Xu Jin off to his car; they needed to properly savor the sensation of being personally stunned by Xu Jin’s beauty just now.

The group followed Jiang Zhe out, just in time to see Jiang Fanyue also emerging from a corner.
