Chapter 292 He brought shame upon himself.
Li Mengli was wearing pajamas and slippers.
She was surrounded by a group of very excited girls as she walked to the gate of Han City University.
Before she even reached the main gate, she saw a huge, dark mass of people ahead of her.
The school security guards were shouting loudly, trying to maintain order, but hardly anyone listened.
Everyone gathered around the roadside, holding their phones and taking pictures in the direction of the middle.
With the help of several girls, Mengli finally managed to squeeze to the front of the crowd.
When she saw clearly who was standing next to that solid gold sports car.
She was completely stunned.
Just now in the dorm, I overheard the girls saying that a super rich second-generation heir drove up in a pure gold sports car to confess his love to her.
She was still wondering to herself which clueless person had played this prank.
But now.
When she saw the boy wearing a hip-hop jacket and with a middle parting.
She recognized him immediately.
Isn't this the same pretentious guy who insisted on buying Zhao Jiajia a 100,000 yuan bracelet in the mall yesterday?
His name is Zhang Ming.
Why would he come to the school to look for her?
At this moment, Zhang Ming also saw Li Mengli squeezing out from the crowd.
His smug smile instantly widened.
He was very pleased to see that Mengli had come out wearing only pajamas and slippers.
He assumed that Mengli must have been so excited when she heard he had arrived in his pure gold sports car that she rushed out to see him without even changing her clothes.
It seems that his sports car, worth 200 million, is indeed incredibly powerful.
Zhang Ming reached out and straightened his collar.
He took two steps toward Mengli.
Then, in a very loud and boastful voice, he addressed Mengli, and also all the students watching around him, saying:
"Li Mengli! You're finally out!"
"I came to see you today for no other reason than..."
"I just want you to see for yourself what real strength is!"
Zhang Ming turned around and slapped the gleaming gold sports car behind him hard.
A muffled "bang" was heard.
Zhang Ming said loudly:
"Didn't you drive around in a 100 million yuan Aston Martin before, trying to act all high and mighty in front of me?"
"Didn't you think my eight-million-dollar Rolls-Royce was a piece of junk?"
"Alright! I'll show you today!"
"This sports car was custom-made for me at a cost of 200 million! And its entire body is made of pure gold!"
"You absolutely won't find another one like it in the whole world!"
Zhang Ming had barely finished speaking.
A huge gasp immediately erupted from the surrounding crowd.
Two hundred million?!
"My God! Did I hear that right? This car costs two hundred million!"
"And it's made of pure gold! That's outrageous!"
"This rich kid is too awesome! He casually spends 200 million to buy a car!"
"If I could be his girlfriend, wouldn't I be able to have anything I wanted? It would be so wonderful!"
The girls around were shocked when they heard the price of the car.
Their eyes were sparkling, and the way they looked at Zhang Ming had changed.
In their eyes, Zhang Ming is now the most handsome man in the world.
If Zhang Ming were to beckon to any one of them right now, they would definitely pounce on him without hesitation.
Hearing the gasps of the girls around him, Zhang Ming felt extremely smug.
He thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being envied and admired by everyone.
He turned his head and looked at Li Mengli in front of him.
He had assumed that Li Mengli would immediately look at him with new respect after seeing the 200 million pure gold sports car and hearing the exclamations of those around her.
She will definitely be completely conquered by his wealth, just like Zhao Jiajia in the mall before.
but.
But the reality was completely different from what he expected.
Li Mengli stood there, looking at Zhang Ming and the gleaming gold sports car behind him.
There wasn't a trace of surprise or envy on her face.
She just looked at Zhang Ming calmly, as if watching a clown perform.
For Li Mengli.
Two hundred million?
What kind of money is that?
There are plenty of sports cars more expensive than this one in her father Li Ze's underground parking garage.
She can drive whichever limited edition car she wants, even if it costs tens or hundreds of millions.
What's more, this car looks shiny and expensive, but it's really tacky.
It's totally the aesthetic of a nouveau riche.
Looking at Zhang Ming's smug expression, Li Mengli couldn't help but sneer.
She didn't care about the car at all.
Li Mengli crossed her arms and spoke in a very calm tone.
"Young Master Zhang, you've made such a big fuss today just to show off that you spent two hundred million on a car?"
Zhang Ming's smile froze slightly upon hearing Meng Li's words.
He felt that Mengli's reaction was too cold, which was unusual.
He forced himself to speak:
"What? Isn't a sports car worth two hundred million enough to impress you?"
Li Mengli shook her head.
She looked at Zhang Ming and said very directly:
"Sorry, it's really not enough."
"It's just two hundred million? Do you think two hundred million is a lot?"
"This amount of money is nothing to me."
Li Mengli paused for a moment, then casually stated a fact that shocked everyone:
"My dad gives me 200 million yuan in pocket money every month."
"Do you think I'd even give a second thought to your sports car, which's only worth a month's allowance to me?"
As soon as those words were spoken...
The entire school gate fell into a deathly silence in an instant.
All the students, including the girls who had just been screaming, stared wide-eyed at Li Mengli.
Two hundred million?
Or is it your monthly allowance?
How is that possible!
After a brief silence, the crowd immediately erupted in uproar.
"My God! Did I hear that right? Two hundred million in pocket money every month?"
"Is this even human? Two hundred million! Our family couldn't earn that much money in several lifetimes!"
"My God! Mengli is such a rich heiress! She's been hiding her wealth so well!"
"No wonder she drove her hundred-million-dollar Aston Martin to school yesterday! Turns out she's got plenty of money!"
The girls around them got even more excited.
The look in their eyes as they looked at Mengli had changed from envy to utter admiration.
This is a real super-rich second-generation heir!
Compared to her, Zhang Ming, who drives a pure gold sports car, is simply no match.
Zhang Ming stood there, after hearing Li Mengli say "two hundred million in pocket money every month".
His face instantly turned extremely ugly.
He felt that Li Mengli was just bragging.
In China, even top families with assets worth hundreds of billions wouldn't give their children 200 million in cash every month as pocket money.
This is simply not common sense.
Zhang Ming felt that Li Mengli was deliberately exaggerating in order to save face in front of everyone.
He shouted loudly in a fit of rage:
"Li Mengli! Stop bragging!"
"Two hundred million in pocket money every month? Who do you think you are?"
Even if your family has hundreds of billions in assets, your dad can't possibly give you that much cash every month to spend as you please!
"You're completely lying!"
Zhang Ming pointed at Li Mengli and loudly mocked her:
"If you don't want to admit that my car is more expensive than yours, just say so. There's no need to make up such an outrageous lie to deceive everyone."
"Do you really think we're fools?"
Faced with Zhang Ming's doubts and ridicule.
Li Mengli was not angry.
She just looked at Zhang Ming with a very helpless smile on her face.
She felt that arguing with someone who had never seen the world was a waste of time.
Li Mengli looked at Zhang Ming and said in a very calm tone:
"Young Master Zhang, it's alright if you're inexperienced. But don't spout nonsense here."
There are many things in this world that you haven't seen. Just because you don't believe them doesn't mean they don't exist.
"Everything I just said is true. Whether you believe it or not is your business. I don't need to prove anything to you."
"Also, I'm really busy. If you came to see me today just to show off your new sports car..."
"Then you've achieved your goal. I've seen it. It's indeed very flashy."
"Now, please move aside, I need to go back to my book."
After saying all that.
Without any hesitation, Li Mengli turned around and, surrounded by a group of girls, walked towards the dormitory building without looking back.
Zhang Ming stood there, watching Li Mengli's departing figure.
His face turned pale and then flushed, and his chest heaved violently.
He was so angry he was about to explode.
He drove such an expensive car today because he wanted to thoroughly humiliate Li Mengli.
Unexpectedly, instead of humiliating her, he was rendered speechless by her few words.
Even in the eyes of the students around him, he now looks as ridiculous as a clown.
Zhang Ming gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly.
He has completely lost face today.
And behind Zhang Ming.
Lu Wenzhou, who was always leaning against the black McLaren sports car.
He watched the whole farce from beginning to end.
When he heard Li Mengli say, "It's okay to be ignorant, but don't say stupid things,"
Lu Wenzhou narrowed his eyes slightly.
He watched Li Mengli's departing figure, a smile of great interest appearing on his lips.
Lu Wenzhou thought silently to himself:
"This girl is really extraordinary."
"Not only is she beautiful, but she can also remain so calm in the face of a pure gold sports car worth 200 million."
"Two hundred million in pocket money every month? If an average girl said that, I would definitely think she was bragging."
"But the way she said it, the very natural tone, and the confidence that emanated from her very being."
"It makes me feel like she really wasn't lying."
Lu Wenzhou's gaze grew increasingly profound.
He developed a very strong interest in this girl named Li Mengli.
He turned his head and glanced at Zhang Ming, who was still there, sulking.
Lu Wenzhou sneered, thinking to himself:
"Zhang Ming, Zhang Ming, your nouveau riche tactics might work on ordinary girls."
"But dealing with a rich heiress of this caliber is just humiliating yourself."
