After stopping being a simp, the school heartthrob cried and begged to get back together.

Chapter Sixty-One: She's Not My Girlfriend

"You're shameless." I looked at him speechlessly: "How can someone like you, who is supported by others, compare to someone like Mu Xi who is self-reliant? Apart from the fact that you cheated on her and had a mistress, you are not worthy of her in terms of ability at all."

Huo Xiao retorted angrily, "What do you mean by that? Are you mocking my incompetence?"

"If you were capable, would you still rely on your older brother to support you?" I said sarcastically. "You even have money from your family to support your mistress."

Huo Xiao was even more furious, "Su Ran and I are true love!"

At this moment, the host banged the gavel: "Congratulations, ma'am, 250 million! This screen is yours."

I smiled.

Huo Xiao was stunned: "How come it's over already?"

Huo Yi shook his head speechlessly.

With Huo Xiao's IQ, if you really gave him the company, he'd probably lose everything.

"However, I'd also like to know how Professor Shen will come up with 250 million?" Huo Yi looked at me curiously.

"Exactly, two hundred and fifty million, can you come up with that?" Huo Xiao looked at him with amusement.

At this moment, the staff had already come over.

Gu Heng didn't want to see me make a fool of myself: "Shen Yan, I can give you money."

"If you give me money, I'm afraid you'll have conditions attached," I said sarcastically.

Gu Heng looked at me meaningfully: "After all, there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world."

He climbed up from the bottom, so he understands the importance of equivalent exchange.

"Here's my money, no return is needed." Huo Yubai gestured to his assistant beside him: "Bring the check."

"No need," I refused them.

Then I picked up my phone and dialed a number.

After the other party answered the call, I handed the phone to the staff.

The staff member answered the phone.

Five seconds later.

His expression changed, and then he respectfully handed the phone back to me.

"Professor Shen, we can deliver the goods now. Please let us know the address," the staff member said politely.

I said, "You can just send it directly to Miss Muxi's house."

Mu Xi is a VIP here, so they must know the address.

“Okay, no problem.” The staff member was very respectful: “We’ll send someone over right away.”

I nodded.

"Wait!" Huo Xiao pointed at me. "She hasn't paid yet!"

"We have complete faith in Professor Shen's character, so there's no need to rush to pay," the staff member explained.

"Who did she call just now?" Huo Xiao asked, even more agitated.

"We have no comment." The staff member smiled helplessly and turned to leave.

Huo Xiao looked at me unfriendly: "You can get things delivered to your home for free with just one phone call. Looks like you have a powerful background."

I knew Huo Xiao wanted to get some information out of me, so I sneered, "Even if I have connections, you're not worthy to know."

Huo Xiao sneered: "I knew it. You think you, a professor, could come up with more than 200 million? Keep dreaming. You're laughing at me. What kind of person are you anyway!"

He was furious and seized the opportunity to start mocking.

"Huo Xiao," Huo Yi coldly reminded him.

Huo Yi complained, "Big brother, you didn't care what she said about me!"

"What did she say wrong?" Huo Yubai's deep black eyes shone with a sharp light.

Huo Xiao dared to get angry with Huo Yi, but he wouldn't dare to disrespect Huo Yubai.

This man is too violent.

Since he took control of the Huo family, he has been making those who wronged him, both openly and secretly, almost to death.

Nobody knew, but as a member of the Huo family, he knew all too well.

Those from the collateral branches of the Huo family who had once chosen the wrong side were gradually kicked out by Huo Yubai.

Fortunately, Hoy remained neutral back then, which led to the current success of the Hoy Group.

Otherwise, they would starve.

Huo Xiao became as quiet as a quail, much more docile.

I never expected Huo Yubai to be so authoritative.

Don't forget, what he just said was indeed very intimidating.

Even I, an outsider, felt a sense of dread upon hearing this.

“Huo Xiao is right, I am just an ordinary university professor.” I stood up.

Everyone was looking at me.

"Back then, Zhao Baixue arrogantly told me that I wasn't from their social class." I said coldly, "She was right. Now, I'm not in the same social class as her either. I should thank her. She made me understand the law of the jungle, the survival of the fittest. Mr. Gu, please tell your girlfriend that I remember her kindness."

"I've already said, she's not my girlfriend." Gu Heng frowned.

But it doesn't matter to me anymore.

I left.

Go to the gate.

I just saw Mibolai.

She put her phone into her handbag, looking pained.

"You got sick all over by a dirty man, and he even spread the word, making people afraid to approach you." I sneered, "You use your germaphobia to explain why people don't want to be near you. How can you live like this, pretending to be something you're not?"

Mi Baolai stared at me in astonishment: "You!"

“I already told you, only I can cure your illness.” I stepped forward: “But you can’t get rid of that dirty man. What good is it if I cure you? You’ll still get infected by him. It’s a waste of time.”

“He’s not dirty!” Mi Baolai retorted. “It was those women who seduced him.”

"There's nothing I can do about it if that's what you think," I smiled. "I was just reminding you."

"So, can you actually cure this disease for me?" Mi Baolai asked.

"Yes, I can cure your illness, but I can't guarantee I can win back your man's heart," I said lazily.

"And what are your conditions?" Mi Baolai asked.

I stepped forward and smiled slightly: "I heard that the great designer Mi has an intelligence team under his command. Nothing, big or small, in Xinjing City can escape your control. I wonder if I could borrow it?"

"What are you going to do?" Mi Baolai asked cautiously.

"I just want to find out some information, something more in-depth." I replied, "If you agree, I'll treat you for free."

"You use my people, and you call that free?" Mi Baolai was speechless.

I chuckled and said, "I only have this one condition."

Mi Baolai thought for a moment, then gripped her handbag tightly with her fair and slightly chubby hands: "Okay, I promise you."

"Come to the hospital to see me tomorrow." I turned and left.

Mi Baolai watched my retreating figure, lost in thought.

She didn't know what my purpose was.

-

I called Mu Xi and told her about taking a picture of the screen.

"I've heard about it all." Mu Xi said angrily, "Huo Xiao is already divorced, but he's still going against me. What did I do wrong to marry him?"

"It's not your fault," I comforted him. "But I've found that men like this are all quite arrogant. He probably thought you were just joking."

“They’re just narcissistic and have an inflated sense of self-importance.” Mu Xi said calmly, “But it’s easier to deal with once we get the screen. I’ll give you the money in a bit.”

"No need," I said with a faint smile. "Consider it a gift from me."

Mu Xi was surprised: "So much money, how much do you earn? No way, I have to give it to you."

"Xi Xi." I took a deep breath: "To be honest, that screen is mine."
