C5 I Don't like Being Tested

A hundred million dollars in cash on display at the scene was a truly breathtaking sight!

Against the backdrop of the cash wall, Lin Dong, who was dressed simply, suddenly shone with an impressive aura!

The eyes of the onlookers, especially the girls, blazed with intense desire.

Lin Dong was already incredibly handsome, and now, with all this money, he was the epitome of a dream guy!

"Oh my God! I can't handle this!"

"Prince Charming, let me be your maid!"

"All this money, and I'd be content with just one stack!"

"If I could be Prince Charming's girlfriend, I'd even be happy as a dog!!"

...

The girls were buzzing with thoughts.

Their eyes were fixed on Lin Dong, and quite a few were even more captivated by the cash wall behind him!

At that moment, all the girls had a change of heart, their minds racing with thoughts of Lin Dong, fantasizing about making him their boyfriend!

Naturally, they also dreamed of sharing that backdrop of cash with Lin Dong!

When the bank security noticed the escalating situation, they immediately raised their weapons and stood guard around the stacks of money.

They also loudly cautioned everyone to keep their distance and not to approach!

The dark barrels of the guns brought the crowd, which was on the verge of surging forward, to a sudden and sober standstill.

Once the crowd was under control, they began to gossip about Wang Lei and Zhang Xiaofeng, who were standing next to Lin Dong.

Zhang Xiaofeng had previously, in front of Lin Dong, admitted to two-timing and had not spared any harsh words in belittling Lin Dong, throwing herself into Wang Lei's embrace!

The pair had been dismissive of Lin Dong, flaunting their superiority.

Wang Lei had even boasted about his wealthy lifestyle.

He had pulled out ten thousand dollars in cash on the spot, flaunting it extravagantly, almost as if he were broadcasting it to the world on camera!

Little did he expect Lin Dong to deliver such a resounding counterblow!

The dramatic turn of events was like a roller coaster ride for the onlookers, leaving them thrilled!

Everyone was eager to see how this couple's situation would unfold.

Wang Lei's face was a mix of embarrassment and anger.

He still held the ten thousand dollars he had earlier flaunted to Lin Dong.

To the average person, this was a significant amount of money, but in comparison to Lin Dong's hundred million dollars, it was utterly insignificant.

Lin Dong stood serenely in front of a backdrop constructed from one hundred million in cash. Beside him was the poised and mature Han Qingxue, accompanied by a group of bank employees who watched him with admiration. Surrounding them were twenty security guards, armed with real guns and prepared for any threat.

Despite his simple attire, Lin Dong was undeniably the most esteemed person there, commanding respect from everyone present. Inside Zhang Xiaofeng's heart, a tempest was brewing. Lin Dong's claims of wealth were true, evidenced by the cash wall before her. If the shock to Wang Lei's psyche was a hundred, for Zhang Xiaofeng, it was ten thousand.

She had always seen Lin Dong as a penniless, obedient man, but she couldn't have been more wrong. With a net worth of one hundred million, his youth and good looks far surpassed those of Wang Lei, a student from a middle-class background. Regret washed over Zhang Xiaofeng.

Lin Dong had been a source of endless warmth in her life, even bringing her lovingly prepared meals daily. And now, she realized his wealth. The combination of a kind-hearted, wealthy, and attractive man was the epitome of the perfect boyfriend. Yet, she had chosen Wang Lei, a man of modest means who didn't truly appreciate her.

How laughable it was! In comparison to Lin Dong, Wang Lei was nothing. Biting her lip, Zhang Xiaofeng prepared to say something to mend fences with Lin Dong. As if on cue, Lin Dong turned his head and looked in her direction, sending a jolt through her heart.

Could it be that he was considering a reconciliation? She imagined him saying, "Xiaofeng, I'm wealthy now. I can offer you a comfortable life. Leave Wang Lei and come with me." Without hesitation, she would decisively leave Wang Lei for Lin Dong.

Lost in her daydream, Lin Dong stepped forward and approached her. The breeze tousled his hair, accentuating his striking features.

Zhang Xiaofeng's heart pounded uncontrollably with excitement!

Clasping her hands over her heart, her eyes—adorned with false lashes—widened with anticipation as she gazed at Lin Dong, eager for him to utter the words she had been dreaming of.

With hopeful eyes, Lin Dong met her gaze, his own eyes twinkling, and asked, "Are you willing to get back together with me now?"

Without a moment's hesitation, Zhang Xiaofeng nodded eagerly and exclaimed, "Yes, yes, I am willing! Lin Dong, there's really nothing significant between Wang Lei and me. We just made our relationship official, but I've always truly liked you!"

As she spoke, her face glowed with an angelic radiance. "Actually, I was just testing you, silly~"

(Wang Lei: "???")

Lin Dong regarded her for a moment, then shook his head and said, "You may be willing to reconcile, but I no longer have feelings for you. I don't appreciate being tested. Please leave."

His voice was calm, but his final words were delivered with a clarity and finality that cut through the air.

Ah?

Zhang Xiaofeng, brimming with anticipation, was suddenly taken aback.

She had assumed Lin Dong wanted to reconcile, but it turned out she had overestimated her allure!

Driven by instinct, she stepped forward, looking at Lin Dong with urgency and pleaded, "Darling, what's wrong? Don't you like me anymore? You brought me meals with love, we had dates in the library, you even brought me hot water when I had my period..."

Lin Dong raised his hand, cutting her off mid-sentence: "I was just having a bit of fun. Let's leave it at that."

With those words, he turned and walked away, heading back to the wall of cash.

Zhang Xiaofeng followed him instinctively, only to be blocked by armed security guards.

After all, there was a hundred million in cash at stake here!

How could they allow just anyone to get close?

What if she was attempting to steal the money?

Confronted with the ominous barrels of the guns, Zhang Xiaofeng halted, fearing for her life.

In that moment, all she could do was fix Lin Dong with a beseeching look and implore, "Lin Dong, please don't go. I truly do like you. I can't live without you!"

Lin Dong turned a deaf ear to her pleas.

Yet, his heart swelled with satisfaction!

Zhang Xiaofeng, the deceptive white lotus, had him wrapped around her finger. Had he not overheard her, he would still be at her beck and call like a dog!

Now, with 100 million in cash, he had reclaimed his dignity and forced Zhang Xiaofeng to come to him, begging for peace!

He decisively rejected her offer, relishing the sweet release of his pent-up anger!

"Ding! Host has completed a random task and is rewarded with a school district building! The information has been logged with the Housing Authority. Please proceed to authenticate your claim and collect your property deed at your earliest convenience."

A notification chimed.

Lin Dong was taken aback.

He hadn't anticipated being awarded a school district building!

In Jiangyang City, a third-tier city, school district properties didn't come cheap—costing around ten thousand yuan per square meter. A standard apartment could set you back over a million yuan!

An entire building, with dozens of households, amounted to an asset worth tens of millions of yuan!

To snag a school district building worth tens of millions just by flexing, and to purge the bile in his heart, was utterly exhilarating!
