13: Chapter 14 You're Famous
Liu Yuxi looked at An Xin with immense gratitude, her tone filled with uncontrollable appreciation.
One million; even if she spent her entire life, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to pay it back.
She had never seen a luxury car before, and with Cheng Xiao yelling like that and acting so intimidating, she had assumed from the start that she was in the wrong.
Now it seemed that there was no "being in the wrong"—she had been completely scammed.
"You're welcome. I just can't stand people like that making a scene here."
Liu Yuxi scratched her head, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Let me write you an IOU. I'll find a way to pay you back for these fifty thousand later!"
Since this money came from An Xin, Liu Yuxi naturally felt bad about letting him pay for her.
It was her who had bumped into the car, and if she didn't pay a single cent, she would feel guilty.
"No need. It's just a small amount of money; why would you pay me back?"
An Xin said casually.
As soon as he said this, he instantly attracted quite a few gazes from the surroundings.
With this, An Xin had thoroughly stolen the spotlight and became a male god in the eyes of countless girls.
Not only was he so handsome, but he was also willing to stand up for others, and his generosity was especially impressive—he was practically the boyfriend of their dreams.
"Then, can I add your contact information?"
Liu Yuxi felt a bit guilty. "Later, I'll treat you to a meal to thank you for helping me out this time."
If An Xin hadn't stepped in to help, Liu Yuxi didn't even dare to imagine what would have happened to her.
"Sure."
An Xin agreed to the meal.
Having successfully obtained a beauty's WeChat, the corners of An Xin's lips curled up.
"Let's go, I'll walk you back to your dormitory."
After this whole display by An Xin, Gao Qilan was left completely stunned on the spot.
The look in her eyes as she gazed at An Xin was filled with a daze.
She still hadn't recovered from the shock of just moments ago; An Xin was just too cool!
"Handsome" was just a word!
But it was also filled with emotion.
"You were so cool just now!"
Gao Qilan said, feeling incredibly shy.
An Xin coughed to hide the corners of his mouth that wanted to curl upward.
"It was alright, just average."
An Xin walked them to their dormitory before leaving.
After returning to his dormitory, three pairs of eyes immediately looked over.
"Bro, you're truly awesome!"
Li Tao looked at An Xin with immense shock, as if he had only just seen An Xin's true colors.
"What's wrong?"
An Xin asked curiously.
"The fact that you stood up for that girl at the school gate has already spread through all the group chats. Oh my god, the way you threw money at him was just too cool."
That kind of coolness was impossible to describe with words.
"I thought that since we were assigned to the same dormitory, our family backgrounds would be similar, but I didn't expect you to be a hidden big shot."
Lin Chen walked up and punched An Xin on the shoulder, his eyes full of shock.
"Hey, that's all small stuff, isn't it? I just couldn't stand how arrogant that car owner was. Driving a beat-up car and trying to scam students from our school—did he think we were all fools?"
An Xin waved his hand quite casually, looking calm and composed.
"There were so many onlookers, yet not a single person spotted the flaws in that car!"
Ye An was also filled with uncontrollable surprise.
He considered himself a car enthusiast, but compared to An Xin's vision, it seemed worth nothing. After all, he had just looked at those pictures and hadn't seen the problems with the car at all.
"Oh, I just occasionally look at the news; even if I can't afford to buy them, I should at least be able to recognize them!"
An Xin said with extreme humility. Although his net worth was already enough to buy that car, he had a very indifferent desire for luxury cars.
The disguise on that car was truly excellent. The only reason An Xin was able to detect it was that in his previous life, this scam had been exposed, but by that time, it had already been too late.
By stepping forward now, he was just exposing the scam early.
"The school wall is filled with posts about you, and quite a few senior girls even want to add you!"
Lin Chen scrolled through the school wall he had just added, his tone filled with jealousy.
He hadn't even gotten to know a single girl yet, while An Xin already had countless beauties dying to add his contact info.
"My WeChat isn't something just anyone can add; at the very least, they have to be a top-tier beauty."
An Xin snorted and said in an incredibly haughty manner.
"Even the famous Campus Belle of our school wants to get to know you."
"Bro, how are you so cool? Quickly, teach us."
Although they couldn't throw money around, they could at least learn to mimic An Xin's cool demeanor.
"It's fine. Once you have money, you'll become confident. Keep it up!"
In An Xin's tone, one couldn't even detect any intention of actually teaching them.
Fortunately, the three of them were just joking around.
After all, it wasn't easy to just casually pull out fifty thousand, let alone get school students to smash a car into pieces.
This wasn't something that could be accomplished just by being cool; it required the underlying substance to back it up.
"This incident of yours made it to the social news. Damn, that guy is actually shamelessly slandering you, saying you smashed his luxury car and threatened to retaliate against him!"
After all, this incident happened at the school gate, so it naturally caused quite a stir. Not only was there surveillance footage nearby, but there were also videos taken by passersby.
"Breaking! Student at a certain university threatens someone on the spot and smashes a luxury car!"
"39.99 million luxury car turns into 50,000 worth of trash in seconds; a certain student is too overbearing!"
"Luxury car owner cries while holding his head!"
Most of these videos were taken out of context and even carried other undertones; it was complete slander, clearly wanting to trample An Xin into the ground and defame the school along with him.
"This kind of person is just too disgusting. He doesn't even realize his own mistakes and wants to shift all the responsibility onto you."
This could no longer be described by the word "abominable."
An Xin casually picked up his phone, and sure enough, he saw himself on the trending headlines.
Even at this point, Cheng Xiao was still feigning an incredibly innocent appearance, hugging the luxury car on his phone and crying his eyes out.
He even had to put on an understanding facade.
"I know they are all students and naturally don't have the money to compensate me, but they shouldn't have just smashed my car like that!"
"It was originally just such a small scratch, but now my car has turned into a piece of scrap metal."
These highly inflammatory words depicted him in the position of a victim.
People always tend to have a sympathetic heart for those in a disadvantaged position, and sure enough, the internet was filled with voices of abuse.
