CHAPTER 615: CHAPTER 615: ONLY THOSE WITH ASSETS EXCEEDING 100 MILLION ARE QUALIFIED TO PURSUE HER

Lin Fan didn’t say anything, yet somehow he still got caught in the crossfire, leaving him a bit speechless.

He partially agreed with Lai Xiaomei’s point of view because it’s very realistic; what she said reflected some real-world situations.

In our real-world society, it’s true that excellent men have a priority in choosing a partner. Outstanding men won’t lack for women; they don’t even have to pursue them, and lots of women will come to them willingly.

So many men work hard to become excellent, to become CEOs, marry rich and beautiful women, and reach the pinnacle of life. It’s not just a joke; it’s the aspiration and goal of many men.

However!

Lin Fan didn’t agree that unsuccessful men have no right to like goddesses. That’s wrong—liking someone is a personal matter. A beggar can like a queen, qualification doesn’t matter, or rather, everyone is qualified.

"Oh."

Faced with Liu Qiang’s confident provocation, Lin Fan couldn’t be bothered to respond.

Though he didn’t agree with Lai Xiaomei, he also wasn’t interested in refuting her, since he preferred to keep a low profile.

Now, he was just taking the stance of a bystander, watching the drama with indifference, just waiting for the rental car company to come and take the car back, and then he’d leave.

Liu Qiang saw Lin Fan ignoring him and became even more excited.

"Lin Fan, what do you mean by ’oh’? Are you admitting that you’re not qualified to like Lai Xiaomei?" Liu Qiang pressed aggressively.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "I think you’re qualified."

This was the truth. In Lin Fan’s view, loving someone isn’t a crime. A beggar can like a queen. Of course, Liu Qiang is qualified to like Lai Xiaomei.

However, to Liu Qiang, Lin Fan’s words sounded sarcastic, like he was suggesting Liu Qiang wasn’t qualified either.

Liu Qiang was instantly annoyed: "Lin Fan, you should look in the mirror. You’re a delivery guy, what qualifications do you have to talk about me? I don’t have the right to like her, but do you? What have you got?"

Lin Fan spread his hands, feeling that explaining anything more to this guy was just a waste of effort.

At this moment, Meng Xiaoming on stage noticed the commotion over here and laughed, "Junior Sister Lai, your words were quite fierce just now, quite intense. It seems there’s already a dispute over them in the audience, and I’d also like to know what everyone thinks of your statement."

Meng Xiaoming’s words led everyone to follow his gaze, turning to look at Liu Qiang and Lin Fan.

Suddenly, Liu Qiang and Lin Fan became the focus of attention.

Principal Zhao saw Lin Fan and wanted to cry. Why was this guy still here? This failed student, why hadn’t he left yet? And now he had attracted everyone’s attention, so now everyone would know Tianhai Middle School had such a failed student.

Lai Xiaomei also noticed Lin Fan and slightly furrowed her brows. She still couldn’t remember who Lin Fan was.

Liu Qiang pointed at Lin Fan and said, "This guy is Lai Xiaomei’s middle school classmate. I just want to say, he’s exactly the kind of person Lai Xiaomei was talking about—so ordinary, yet so confident!"

"I didn’t say anything," Lin Fan said, spreading his hands in speechless exasperation.

Liu Qiang snorted, "You didn’t say anything? Didn’t you say I wasn’t qualified to like Lai Xiaomei? If I’m not qualified, do you think you are?"

Lai Xiaomei let out an "Oh" and sized up Lin Fan. He was actually her middle school classmate. No wonder he looked so familiar, but she just couldn’t remember who he was.

Jia Xiaoling couldn’t help but retort to Liu Qiang, "Liu Qiang, stop being unreasonable. He clearly said you are qualified to like Lai Xiaomei!"

"Hahaha..."

A young man sitting below the stage suddenly burst into laughter and stood up.

"What, you think you’re qualified to like my sister?" The young man pointed at Liu Qiang. "What makes you qualified?"

Liu Qiang instantly turned red with embarrassment: "I..."

Meng Xiaoming laughed and said, "It’s nothing. Fellow student, I believe most of those present today are alumni. This brother here should be too, right?"

Liu Qiang said, "I am from the class of 2008, my name is Liu Qiang."

Being asked by Meng Xiaoming made Liu Qiang feel greatly flattered, so he promptly introduced himself. After all, Meng Xiaoming, the vice-president of Orange Airlines, he wouldn’t normally have the qualification or opportunity to speak with him. Now given the chance, he absolutely couldn’t let it slip and had to make a good impression.

Meng Xiaoming said, "Come on, Junior Brother Liu Qiang, feel free to tell us, why do you think you’re qualified to pursue Lai Xiaomei?"

Liu Qiang said, "I’m currently a supervisor at a factory with a scale of 50 million, with an annual salary of 300,000, and I just bought a BMW outright. I think I’ve got some skills."

Upon hearing this, many people nodded and showed agreement.

Being a supervisor at a 50 million factory with an annual salary of 300,000 was indeed not bad, not to mention buying a BMW outright, which would cost at least tens of thousands, starting from fifty thousand!

Such a person was indeed commendable.

Meng Xiaoming smiled and said, "Junior Brother Liu Qiang, you’re indeed impressive, but I dare not say whether you qualify or not; that decision must be confirmed by Junior Sister Lai Xiaomei."

The young man sneered, "Liu Qiang, right? Do you know what kind of people pursue my sister? There are rich second generations, successful entrepreneurs, none of whose assets are less than a hundred million. You think your 300,000 annual salary and a BMW qualify you to pursue my sister? How overconfident!"

"What?"

Everyone was stunned.

That was just too extraordinary, wasn’t it? Assets over a hundred million just to pursue Lai Xiaomei?

That was incredible.

Does that mean if your assets are not over a hundred million, you can’t even like her?

This seemed too excessive.

Liu Qiang’s face flushed red with shame, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into. He had been very confident just now, thinking he was doing quite well.

But now, after the young man’s words, it seemed like he really wasn’t qualified. Compared to those rich second generations and entrepreneurs, his assets seemed pitiful, and how could he be qualified to like Lai Xiaomei?

Turned out the clown was actually himself, the person Lai Xiaomei referred to as so ordinary yet so confident.

"You think you’re not an average Joe just because you have a BMW and a 300,000 annual salary? Sorry, you’re still just an average Joe, and you’re overly confident." The young man sneered.

Liu Qiang felt like dying. He regretted arguing with Lin Fan. Now, he was being laughed at.

However, he immediately found a way to save face.

"I... If I’m not qualified, then he’s even less qualified!" Liu Qiang pointed at Lin Fan.

Meng Xiaoming gave an "Oh" and said, "Why, fellow student, what’s the situation now?"

Liu Qiang sneered, "I’m afraid he’s too embarrassed to introduce himself, so let me do the honors! His name is Lin..."

Principal Zhao interrupted Liu Qiang, laughing warmly, "Ladies and gentlemen, today is the school anniversary; I think there’s no need to continue discussing such topics. Let’s get back to the main agenda!"

He certainly didn’t want Lin Fan’s identity to be made public, too embarrassing.
