The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

Chapter 78

C78 – The Truth

The individuals in the room expressed their amazement.

Suddenly, a knock resounded at the door, prompting a cautious security guard to approach.

Surveying the scene, the security guard made his way towards Su Ming.

“Would it be convenient for you to move your car?” inquired the security guard.

He asked.

“Of course,” Su Ming replied.

Su Ming rose from his seat, nodded in agreement, and followed the security guard outside.

The room immediately fell into a hushed silence.

Everyone exchanged glances.

The security guard had specifically requested Su Ming to relocate his vehicle.

It might not have seemed like a big deal initially.

However, the hotel possessed a unique parking lot, and the sole car seemingly obstructing the passage was the Koenigsegg.

Could it be that this extravagant car belonged to Su Ming?

Sun Ming’s face flushed instantly as he clenched his fists.

This was humiliating!

He had lost a considerable amount of face today.

Just moments ago, he had been analyzing the car and lamenting that it was beyond his financial reach.

Little did he know that the owner of the car was Su Ming.

Su Ming’s recent compliment suddenly echoed in his mind.

Su Ming had praised him for his knowledge, and he had initially thought it was flattery. Now it appeared that Su Ming had been mocking him.

Sun Ming had hoped to flaunt his achievements at this reunion.

But he had not anticipated that Su Ming would surpass him.

Why could Su Ming afford a limited edition Koenigsegg?

It was a sports car worth hundreds of millions.

This indicated that Su Ming’s spending power and social standing exceeded his own.

It now made sense why Su Ming had maintained a low profile throughout the gathering.

Su Ming had been looking down on him. In the past, Sun Ming had been influential in Su Ming’s eyes, but now he was insignificant.

Lee Kang blinked, stood up, and walked to the corridor. He opened the window and glanced downward, witnessing Su Ming driving away.

“Is that really Su Ming’s car?” Lee Kang exclaimed.

Lee Kang’s statement confirmed the situation.

The room’s occupants fell into an even deeper silence.

In this moment, everyone comprehended why Ye Ling held Su Ming in such high regard.

It was likely that no woman could resist a man who could afford a sports car worth hundreds of millions.

Although Ye Ling was surprised inwardly, she did not reveal it.

She remained unaware of Su Ming’s wealth or his experiences over the past few years.

She had chosen to sit beside Su Ming at this reunion for two reasons: his substantial help during their high school studies and her aversion to the sycophants in the room.

Ye Ling responded to her classmates’ gazes with a faint smile.

Regardless of their assumptions, Ye Ling had no intention of offering explanations. After all, their opinions held no sway over her.

The room remained silent until Su Ming’s return.

Only Wang Kai sat there, wearing a contented expression.

He observed the astonished expressions of the others.

If they were aware that Su Ming also possessed a ten-billion-dollar piece of land in the city center, they would be even more astounded.

Most importantly, Su Ming had not only used this land to construct a house but also engaged in farming within the city center!

“So, this car is yours,” Wang Kai declared.

Upon Su Ming’s return to his seat, Ye Ling greeted him with a smile.

“Yes,” Su Ming nodded in acknowledgment.

“This car is truly magnificent,” remarked Ye Ling.

Su Ming replied, “It’s decent, just a mode of transportation.”

Ye Ling continued, “I didn’t expect you to become so prosperous after a few years.”

Su Ming remained composed, saying, “It’s nothing significant.”

Hearing this, the surrounding students couldn’t help but feel a pang in their hearts.

To Su Ming, this car was simply a mode of transport.

“I never imagined you’d become so wealthy in just a few years,” Ye Ling said with a smile.

Su Ming responded, “It’s nothing.”

“It’s not a big deal,” Su Ming added.

Wang Kai chimed in with a faint smile, “Old Su isn’t limited to just this car; he has more than that. Well, since Old Su prefers to keep it low-key, I’ll share that this car represents just 1% of his total assets.”

Wang Kai’s revelation prompted numerous gasps throughout the room.

One percent?

What did that imply?

It meant that Su Ming had a minimum of ten billion yuan in assets!

Astonishment rippled through the crowd.

Su Ming, who had originated from a village and lacked any influential connections, had experienced what in the six years since they’d last seen him?

Even if he won a five-million-yuan lottery every day, it wouldn’t accumulate to that much, right?

Many students gazed at Su Ming with newfound fascination.

Conversely, Sun Ming, who had been the center of attention earlier, was now overlooked.

Su Ming’s ability to distinguish the watch’s authenticity made sense now; after all, he was affluent and well-versed in timepieces.

Nevertheless, Su Ming paid little attention to the intrigued gazes. He engaged in lively conversation with Ye Ling and Wang Kai.

While they chatted animatedly, the students at the other tables felt somewhat awkward.

Earlier, when Sun Ming had maligned Su Ming, they had contemplated defending him but ultimately refrained.

Little did they know that Su Ming was a wealthy individual who could have used their support.

Unfortunately, there was no remedy for regret.

Sun Ming ceased his ostentation.

He recalled his previous claim, “I know the owner of this car; we’re friends.”

Sun Ming felt mortified, wishing he could disappear.

Nevertheless, it could be argued that he did indeed know the car’s owner, and they were somewhat acquainted.

From the moment the dishes arrived until the end of the meal, Sun Ming remained silent, seated with his head lowered.

He had no choice; he had organized this gathering and couldn’t simply leave. All he could do was endure the awkwardness.

Initially, Sun Ming had planned post-dinner entertainment like singing, but the mood had been ruined.

As the meal concluded, Sun Ming swiftly settled the bill and departed without looking back, leaving in his car.

Other students followed at a distance, tracking Su Ming.

Wang Kai, in high spirits, patted Su Ming’s shoulder and expressed his gratitude. “Thanks to you, I can hold my head high.”

Thanks to the connection between Wang Kai and Su Ming, many students started showing kindness to Wang Kai.

Even though Wang Kai ignored them, he relished being the center of attention.

“Alright, I won’t keep you any longer. My driver will be here soon. Goodbye,” Wang Kai said, displaying his cleverness as he laughed and drove away.
