CHAPTER 1019: CHAPTER 1005: I’M NOT A IMMORTAL

When Su Xuan tied the cart to his bicycle with a rope and rode away, Li Qingxue still hadn’t figured out what was going on. Everything that happened today was just too bizarre, almost unbelievable, and completely confusing.

"Su Xuan, how did you do it? Did you know something was wrong from the start?"

Li Qingxue was genuinely impressed by Su Xuan. This was a classic case of turning the tables. Initially, Li Qingxue thought she was extremely unlucky this time. She intended to buy a bamboo chair for her grandfather but ended up almost getting scammed instead. It was truly speechless.

But when she was at a loss on what to do, Su Xuan dramatically resolved everything, not only solving the problem but also turning the tables on those trying to scam her. He was really amazing.

"Nonsense, I warned you there might be a problem. You just wanted a bargain!"

Su Xuan said, smiling, while Li Qingxue was frustrated, thinking to herself she didn’t do it on purpose. Besides, Su Xuan didn’t specifically tell her it was a scam, so how would she know?

"Why didn’t you warn me in the beginning if you knew it was a scam? You still let me fall for it."

Li Qingxue pouted.

"Come on, how could I know? I’m not a psychic. I noticed the setup inside and sensed it was off, so I went ahead and bought two eggs and caught a small mouse."

Su Xuan said mischievously, and hearing him mention the mouse, Li Qingxue burst into laughter. Truthfully, she genuinely admired Su Xuan. This guy was really skilled, talking about Golden Rats and Golden Mouse Eggs! In today’s world, how could there be such fancy things!

"You’re incredible, I really admire you. But there’s something I can’t figure out. I remember not touching anything, so how did that thing fall?" Now thinking about it, Li Qingxue felt she hadn’t touched anything back then.

"That was the leverage principle in action. Actually, the boss stepped on a stick in front, causing the table to flip over. Jeez, people nowadays would do anything for money."

Su Xuan was helpless. Nowadays, people come up with endless tricks, changing constantly, making it really hard to guard against. You might accidentally fall into a trap without knowing how you ended up there.

Previously, he encountered someone selling phones on the street, relying on people’s desire for a bargain and using a swap trick. This one was a legal scam. It just shows that for money, some people can be really unscrupulous.

"So that’s how it is. How can these bosses be so shameless? I must expose them, they’re too bad and really have no limits."

At this moment, Li Qingxue was fuming. Thinking she almost became a victim of extortion, she was furious. These people really had no boundaries, she almost suffered in silence.

When Su Xuan took them to a nearby logistics company to send off the bamboo furniture, he couldn’t help but think riding a bicycle with them was a bit odd. After sending the furniture off, to show gratitude, Li Qingxue offered to treat Su Xuan to a meal.

Su Xuan naturally accepted without hesitation. This guy was always happy to have a meal, especially with a beautiful girl. When Su Xuan and Li Qingxue arrived at a stylish restaurant and sat down, Li Qingxue smiled and said.

"What do you want to eat? It’s on me today, don’t hold back."

Li Qingxue acted like a generous lady, thinking it was really thanks to Su Xuan today. If she got extorted for money, while also being furious, that would have been incredibly frustrating. In reality, for many people, the financial loss isn’t the worst, but the psychological impact is. Being extorted leaves a feeling of contradiction and rage inside.

"Haha, then I won’t hold back."

Su Xuan said mischievously, ordering some dishes and a bottle of liquor, and started leisurely enjoying himself.

"Su Xuan, can I interview you? I’m thinking of making you the subject of my next article."

At this time, Li Qingxue looked very serious, while Su Xuan felt speechless, looking at Li Qingxue, he said weakly.

"Li Qingxue, you still want an interview? Haven’t I already told you everything?"

Su Xuan felt speechless, thinking it’s better not to be interviewed. Besides, she already knew his story.

"I heard only a bit, there’s a lot I don’t know."

Li Qingxue quickly explained, thinking she really heard just a little.

"Uh, fine, since you’re treating me today, you can ask. But let me remind you, women who’ve listened to my words of wisdom often end up madly in love with me, so you should prepare yourself. If you find yourself unable to resist falling for me later, I won’t take responsibility."

Su Xuan said with a smile, and Li Qingxue was exasperated, thinking how could he be so narcissistic? Did he think he was a master in romance, that a few words could make women love him? It’s truly impressive how he could boast like this.

However, in truth, Li Qingxue really admired his skill with words, as Su Xuan was quite remarkable indeed, managing to bluff his way through such a difficult situation and turning it around.

Actually, Li Qingxue overlooked an important point, and that is strength. Strength is the basis of everything; without it, no matter how convincingly you weave your tale, it’s useless because no one will listen to your nonsense. The bottom line is, strength controls all discussions. Just like two countries, a country’s diplomacy truly relies on its strength as a foundation; as they say, a weak nation has no diplomacy, a stark reality.

Su Xuan was able to chatter on like that because, from the start, he could handle four people attacking him simultaneously, with composure and order.
