"I don't need to verify the funds; I'll buy it directly." Jiang Chen took out his bank card and walked over. The attendant brought out the POS machine, and without any hesitation, Jiang Chen swiped his card to pay.
Seeing that Jiang Chen really made the purchase without a second thought, the attendant was overjoyed and immediately became enthusiastic.
In business, they love customers like Jiang Chen who are generous with their money. The attendant removed the diamond necklace and personally brought it to Lin Jingzhu, saying she would help put it on. Lin Jingzhu looked at Jiang Chen and, feeling a bit shy, said, "Jiang Chen, this gift is too extravagant."
"As long as you like it," Jiang Chen replied with a gentle smile.
"Jingzhu, Jiang is so good to you; I'm envious! Jiang, can we really choose whatever we want?" Zhou Xuemei chimed in.
"Feel free to choose; after all, you're Jingzhu's classmates," Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Although Jiang Chen said this, aside from the diamond necklace, which was expensive, the other jewelry in the store was mostly priced in the hundreds of thousands at most. Zhou Xuemei and the others felt a bit awkward about picking anything too pricey and ended up choosing some accessories that were around ten thousand.
Greed can lead to downfall, but Zhou Xuemei and her friends understood that Jiang Chen was wealthy and felt embarrassed to accept more of his generosity. Jiang Chen didn’t say much more; after settling the bill, everyone left with their purchases.
Lin Jingzhu was surrounded by her female classmates, who were all singing praises of Jiang Chen. When she heard them refer to her relationship with him as that of a couple, she feigned annoyance but felt quite happy inside. Especially given that Jiang Chen's actions today were all for her. Although their relationship could never return to what it once was, Lin Jingzhu still felt delighted that Jiang Chen was willing to spend money on her.
Mark was utterly shocked and speechless; he never expected Jiang Chen to be so wealthy. He had intended to show off today but ended up being overshadowed by Jiang Chen instead. Seeing Lin Jingzhu accept all of Jiang Chen's gifts, especially the fifteen million diamond necklace, Mark's jealousy flared up.
"This guy is just a high school classmate of Lin Jingzhu; he must be from a small county in Huaxia Nation. How can I, a rich second-generation heir from a great empire, be outdone by some upstart kid from a small county in Huaxia?" Mark thought indignantly.
In his mind, Mark tried to find faults with Jiang Chen so he could feel better about himself. He had invited Jiang Chen along to highlight his own greatness, but in this first encounter, he had been completely defeated.
"I can't let this continue; I must regain my face," Mark thought quietly.
Back at the Golden Coast Resort Hotel, night had fallen. The only consolation for Mark was that he stayed halfway up the mountain while Jiang Chen was at the foot of it.
Around seven o'clock in the evening, as the lights began to twinkle on, Zhou Xuemei and her friends rented barbecue equipment and held a small barbecue party on the beach. Aside from Mark, Lin Jingzhu's classmates were quite pleasant company. If Jiang Chen were like them in his past life, he would probably have spent his days working a regular job, getting married and having children while worrying about daily expenses.
The beach was bustling with people holding barbecue parties; some were locals from Hong Kong Island while others were tourists. The summer night remained warm and humid, so most people on the beach wore light clothing—men with bare arms in beach shorts and many women in bikinis. Lin Jingzhu and her friends weren’t quite as daring but still dressed lightly in shorts and T-shirts.
