Chapter 85 - Are You Playing With Me?

Ye Hao wasn't certain whether Divine Blood possessed the power to resurrect, but he was aware that killing him for good would be quite the challenge.

Upon hearing Ye Hao's comment, Tang Pianpian's face registered sheer disbelief.

“Let's go,” Ye Hao suggested with a grin.

Tang Pianpian had purchased a mini sedan that BMW had specifically designed for women.

The car wasn't too pricey, costing just over three hundred thousand RMB.

Tang Pianpian initially wanted to buy a car that was around a hundred thousand RMB, but Ye Hao disagreed and insisted she choose this model, as the image of the car was the wallpaper on her computer.

Tang Pianpian took Ye Hao to Mumbles.

“The cuisine here is quite good,” Tang Pianpian remarked, having visited once before. Mumbles was on the pricier side. She wouldn't normally dine here if not for hosting the engineers Taishi Xiu had invited.

However, since it was a dinner date with Ye Hao, she felt compelled to pick an impressive venue.

Ye Hao browsed the menu briefly. The dishes were indeed pricey, but not exorbitantly so. He ordered two dishes and decided that was enough.

Tang Pianpian chose two dishes as well.

The server confirmed the four dishes they had selected.

“You only ordered two dishes?”

“Yes.”

“Let's add fried pork ribs and braised pork to our order.”

“Sure thing.”

Once the server departed, Tang Pianpian murmured, “Their portions are quite small. Hey, isn't that Leng Xue over there?”

“Leng Xue?” Ye Hao looked in the direction Tang Pianpian indicated and immediately spotted Leng Xue in her formal attire.

As Ye Hao and Tang Pianpian noticed Leng Xue, she caught sight of them as well.

Her face lit up with surprise, and she quickly made her way over, leaving the young man at her side behind.

“Ye Hao, what brings you here?”

“Miss Leng, am I the only one you see?” Ye Hao teased, gesturing towards Tang Pianpian. “You're missing the stunning lady right here.”

Leng Xue hadn't actually noticed Tang Pianpian until that moment.

“Tang Pianpian, how come you're here with Ye Hao?” Leng Xue asked, her face a picture of astonishment.

When did he become so close with Tang Pianpian?

Typically, a Mumbles establishment wouldn't even carry a Lafite from 1982.

The priciest red wine would barely cost a few thousand RMB.

But this was Glento!

Mumbles here not only stocked Lafite but also the even pricier Penflods Grange.

“Are you playing me?” Wang Hao asked, clearly upset.

“What are you implying?” Ye Hao was taken aback by Wang Hao's pettiness, as it was unusual for someone to become upset in the presence of a lady.

Ye Hao was unaware that Wang Hao was not genuinely wealthy. His bank account held just over five hundred thousand RMB, insufficient for these two bottles of wine.

“Both bottles of red wine total six hundred thousand RMB! How can you claim you're not toying with me?”

Ye Hao's brow furrowed. “I recall you saying I could order whatever I wished, and I only requested one bottle of red wine. If you can't afford it, don't pose as a wealthy man.”

“Do you have the money?”

“I am indeed wealthier than you,” Ye Hao replied with a subdued smile.

“If that's true, then why are you dressed in such inexpensive attire?” Wang Hao retorted with a sneer.

To be precise, Ye Hao was donning clothes from a domestic brand, while Wang Hao's outfit was from an international label. The cost difference between them was nearly tenfold, which was why Wang Hao made his comment.

“Wang Hao, there's no need to flaunt in front of Ye Hao,” Leng Xue interjected.

“What?” Wang Hao was taken aback.

“Have you noticed the watch on Ye Hao's wrist?” Leng Xue pointed out, “You couldn't afford that watch.”

“Vacheron Constantin? It looks like it's worth just twenty to thirty thousand RMB,” Wang Hao said, aware of the brand's typical market prices.

“That's the new luxury men's watch Vacheron Constantin released this year. It's a global limited edition of only three thousand pieces, all snapped up within three days,” Leng Xue explained. After speaking, her gaze towards Ye Hao shifted, filled with a new respect.

Wang Hao was taken aback.

“The retail price of this watch was five million yuan, and it has climbed to six million yuan. You can't even find it on the market anymore.” Leng Xue's words left Tang Pianpian utterly speechless.

It was then that she realized the true value of Ye Hao's watch.

Six million RMB!

“There are plenty of high-quality fakes out there!” Wang Hao remained skeptical of Ye Hao's ability to afford such an exquisite timepiece.

“This Vacheron Constantin watch is set with eighteen purple diamonds. I can spot immediately if the diamonds are genuine or not.” Leng Xue gently shook her head before adding, “Moreover, the Tissot you're wearing is a counterfeit.”

Wang Hao felt as though he had been pierced by a knife.

He was aware that his Tissot was a knockoff, but having Leng Xue call it out publicly was a humiliating blow to his pride.
