Chapter 42: Chapter 041: Renting a Girlfriend to Take Advantage

"Eight hundred yuan."

Yang Tian took out eight banknotes and then handed them to the stall owner.

"Are you really going to spend eight hundred yuan on this iron statue?" Wu Yue was somewhat displeased. "This statue is copper-plated. If it weren’t for its fine craftsmanship, I wouldn’t have spent five hundred yuan on it. My grandpa is an expert in this field. He can tell at a glance if it has any value. If you buy it, my grandpa will definitely look down on you!"

Yang Tian also understood Wu Yue, this type of executive.

With assets worth billions, she would definitely not haggle over the price of an antique.

If the antique were really valuable, Wu Yue would buy it no matter the cost.

But she thought this little lion statue was a copper-plated iron statue, so it wasn’t valuable. However, she appreciated its fine craftsmanship, so she was willing to pay five hundred yuan for it.

But she didn’t know, inside, it was real gold!

Yang Tian activated his spiritual breath, focused it on his palm, and when he touched it, he indeed sensed the aura of gold.

"Boss, please wrap it up. I’ll take this!"

Yang Tian instructed.

"Alright, alright."

The boss was also puzzled. Wu Yue had clearly stopped him, so why was Yang Tian still determined to buy it? Could it be that this little lion statue was a treasure? The owner quickly knocked on the small lion statue, hearing a heavy, coarse sound, he shook his head, it’s just a copper-plated iron statue, not worth anything.

When he restocked, he saw it in person at the scene – just a piece of iron with copper plating.

That’s why it looked so lustrous.

What a fool!

The owner cursed Yang Tian coldly in his heart, quickly wrapping up the little lion statue.

"Are you really going to buy it?"

Wu Yue frowned.

"Of course, I’ll buy it!"

Yang Tian clutched the wrapped little lion statue and quickly walked away. Damn, this box contains several million in gold, how could he not be anxious?

"Why are you in such a hurry? Do you think you’re holding gold? It’s just a piece of scrap iron! I’m actually regretting choosing someone like you to be my temporary boyfriend. Your intelligence is too low, and you’ll be looked down upon by my family."

Wu Yue spoke directly.

Her fair and exquisite small face was full of disdain.

"How could it be? I’m so smart, your family will surely be happy when they see me."

Yang Tian said very narcissistically.

"Smart? Spending eight hundred yuan on a hundred-yuan piece of scrap iron and still calling yourself smart?"

Wu Yue sneered.

"This is clearly gold, alright? You just don’t know it." Yang Tian rolled his eyes.

"Gold? I’ve seen many of these things; they’re just copper-plated scrap iron, worth at most a hundred yuan. At first, I thought you were Guo Jing’s boyfriend and considered you good, but now I realize you’re not so great."

Wu Yue shook her head.

Yang Tian was a bit displeased upon hearing this. The inside of this small lion statue was full of gold; why wouldn’t his temporary girlfriend believe him?

And how could this temporary girlfriend say such things?

I chanced upon several million worth of gold, and instead of appreciating me, she regrets choosing me as her rental boyfriend?

It’s simply outrageous!

"I say, beautiful lady, since you agreed for me to be your rental boyfriend, you should dress properly, right? After all, I’m your boyfriend!" Yang Tian said seriously.

"Properly? How am I not dressed properly?"

Wu Yue said, spinning around on the spot, showing off her figure and clothes.

Although her clothes were expensive Chanel, she looked very glamorous in them. What should be shown was shown, and what shouldn’t be was not, very formal and beautiful. How was it not proper?

"Haha, you appear very proper on the surface, yet you’re wearing a thong undergarment with a rose embroidered on it. Isn’t that the scent of a rose? And you’re saying you’re proper?"

Yang Tian laughed.

"Ah, how do you know I’m wearing a thong?"

Wu Yue looked at Yang Tian in surprise.

"I didn’t know, I know nothing. I just know I like panda eating bamboo, not the scent of roses, because I can feed my bamboo to pandas, hehe..." Yang Tian laughed cheerfully.

"You shameless pervert!"

For a moment, Wu Yue’s face was both angry and embarrassed.

"Dear, am I impressive for being able to tell what kind of underwear you’re wearing at a glance? Am I qualified to be your boyfriend?"

Yang Tian asked with a smile.

Wu Yue took a deep breath, trying to calm down. Even though Yang Tian was lecherous, he could discern what she was wearing based on her clothing, which was somewhat impressive. She only hoped he could appease her family afterward. Being lecherous was ****; after all, it wasn’t a lifelong commitment.

"Sister, you sit at the bedside, while I, your brother, undress, with love together... Sister, you lie in bed, while I, your brother, put on the covers, with love together..."

Yang Tian was in a good mood, singing a song of his own creation.

For a moment, everyone around turned to look.

Wu Yue’s face turned pale with embarrassment, cursing: "You shameless rogue, you’re driving me mad!"

She had just praised Yang Tian’s abilities, hoping he could calm her family, only to realize now that Yang Tian was just a shameless rogue, and any goodwill she had managed to gather disappeared.

Immediately, Wu Yue quickly headed to an antique store on Antique Street.

Her grandpa was a professor at East Sea University and also ran an antique shop on Antique Street. Due to his reputation, the business was booming.

"Grandpa..."

Wu Yue called out as she was about to walk into the shop.

At this moment, Yang Tian sidled up, wrapping an arm around Wu Yue’s slim waist.

"What are you doing?"

Wu Yue looked at Yang Tian angrily.

"I’m helping you. You spent millions to hire me as your temporary boyfriend so that your family can be at ease, right? I’m holding you now to show affection, letting them know you already have a loving boyfriend."

Yang Tian said earnestly.

"Oh?"

Wu Yue thought about it and found it to be correct.

"Is that so?"

Yang Tian smiled and took the opportunity to pinch Wu Yue’s fair, slim waist: it felt amazing!

"You..."

Wu Yue was just about to scold the pervert when she saw an old man walking out from inside. The old man was dressed in traditional Chinese attire, with gray hair and a ruddy complexion. It was clear he was from a prominent family. It was Wu Yue’s grandpa, Huang Zhengyuan: "Yueyue, you finally found time to see your grandpa?"

"Grandpa, even though I visit once a week, I think about you every day."

Wu Yue smiled and walked over.

"Your words are as sweet as ever. Is this your boyfriend?"

Huang Zhengyuan glanced at Yang Tian, and upon seeing his appearance, he was stunned and froze.

"Yes, he’s my boyfriend, Yang Tian... Grandpa, what’s wrong?"

Wu Yue asked puzzledly.

"Nothing, I just find him somewhat familiar... Maybe I’m overthinking it..."

Huang Zhengyuan quickly shook his head.

"Does he resemble Sir Chen from the Capital City?"

Wu Yue asked with a smile. She knew her rented boyfriend somewhat resembled that of Sir Chen from the Capital City.

"Capital City’s Chen Family? No, not that." Huang Zhengyuan shook his head.

"Then I’m not sure..."

Wu Yue stepped forward, supporting Huang Zhengyuan, then sat down beside him, appearing sweet and dependent.

"Yueyue, your mother instructed me to evaluate your boyfriend. What does your boyfriend do?" Huang Zhengyuan asked with a smile.

"He owns a company..."

Before Wu Yue could finish, Yang Tian had already laughed and said: "Actually, I deal in trading. I just picked up a lion statue worth several million from elsewhere."

"A lion statue worth several million? What statue is so expensive?"

Huang Zhengyuan became interested.

"It’s this one."

Yang Tian opened the package and took out the small lion statue.

"You actually took out this piece of scrap iron in front of my grandpa?"

Wu Yue was a bit annoyed. This was clearly a piece of scrap iron bought for a few hundred yuan. Was Yang Tian not embarrassed at all? Did he not know her grandpa was an expert in this field?

"This little lion statue has very fine craftsmanship. It’s copper-plated iron. Young man, why do you think it’s valuable?"

Huang Zhengyuan asked with a smile.

"It’s very simple."

Yang Tian approached, lifted his palm, and struck, breaking open the outer layer of iron from the small lion statue, revealing its essence. Suddenly, a brilliant golden light radiated out...
