CH 10.1

    Chapter 10.1 - Xingfan

In a five-star hotel in Dongfu, in the presidential suite on the top floor, a handsome young man wearing a black sweater and jeans stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the rising sun in the east, and calling his good buddy: "Old Zhao, have you woken up yet? I have some good news to share with you!"

"Hey… What’s your problem man? Why are you calling this early? Are you ill?" The young man called Lao Zhao was very angry because of the phone call early in the morning.

Bai Xing Lan: "If I tell you, don't be jealous of me!"

Old Zhao: "If you fart, just tell me."

After a few seconds of silence, Bai Xinglang’s voice came through the phone: "You know, my brother bought me a joint limited edition of Bearbrick’s Kaws2 model."

Bearbrick was a toy company that was very popular among global fashion trendsetters recently, and the Kaws2 model was a model designed by the famous artist Kaws in 2002. It was a limited-edition building block bear. However, due to the scarcity of issuance, it was difficult to find Kawas2s in the market today. 

Lao Zhao, also a fan of the same Bearbrick limited edition, felt jealous of Bai Xinglan after hearing the news, and he immediately woke up from his sleep: "Well, how many did your brother buy?"

"Oh, what do you think?" Bai Xinglan: "I’m his only brother, and I’m unique in his eyes. Definitely, he must have only bought one."

Old Zhao: Damn it! "Where did your brother buy it and how much did it cost?" He asked, surpassing his temper.

Bai Xinglan said truthfully, "I don't know. I don't know anything about the money he paid for the seller he contacted."

Old Zhao: Damn, I also want to have such a good brother!

The young man, Zhao, was boiling with anger and jealousy toward Bai Xinglan at the same time, so in the end, he could not control his feelings and hung up the phone and threw it away.

"Hello? Hello? Why are you still hanging up the phone? It's really... hey." Looking at the bustling city below, the boy who just turned 20 suddenly felt lonely.

Sometimes, dreams come true too quickly, which is not a good thing, and life is quite dull.

Bai Xinglan was the second son of the Bai family. After looking at the sky for a while, he called the front desk of the hotel and ordered two sets of breakfast.

He played with his phone and started watching short videos while he waited for breakfast. The number one item on Douyin's hot list, "A groom in Dongfu escaped the marriage with an ex-girlfriend," caught his attention even though he was looking for the kaws06 Nanqingshan limited edition. 

The bloodier the event, the more it attracted the attention of the public. Bai Xinglan was also excited like many others and clicked on the post to eat melon excitedly. However, after watching the wedding video, he was completely dumbfounded: the groom turned out to be Xie Yu.

Both of them were upper-class people, so he and Xie Yu often met at parties or dinners, and they had mutual friends. Although they were not very familiar, at least they were regarded as acquaintances: the kind who can take the initiative to say hello when they meet on the street.

But what shocked him the most was not that the groom was Xie Yu, but that he also knew the bride—wasn't this the beautiful sister who lived next to my brother when he was in the ancient town a few months ago? Does she seem to be called Su Yan. Yes, it is Su Yan, the young lady reminded me that it is Su from Suzhou, the colour of Yan!

Was there such a coincidence in the world?

She actually married Xie Yu? Xie Yu ran away from marriage? It was posted on the Internet, and it became number one on the hot list. Now the whole world knew that she was abandoned by the groom on the wedding day... Bai Xinglan felt pity for her.

‘How pitiful she is? In front of relatives and friends, she was abandoned… Xie Yu is really nothing! Bah, scum!’
