"Of course! Do you think I'm like you? I have a wealthy family background that you can't compare to. Be smarter next time you're out here, don't think you're the most important person in the world!" Satellite Xing said earnestly, seemingly lecturing Ye Lang on how to be a good person. However, anyone could tell that he was just showing off.

"Young Master Satellite, I haven't finished speaking yet," Ye Lang said with a smile.

"What are you saying? Go ahead, I won't mind." Satellite looked at Ye Lang with disdain, thinking that Ye Lang must be trying to please him and admit defeat.

"Your daughter is still short eight hundred taels of gold. Hurry up and take it out," Ye Lang said calmly.

"What? You really are a nouveau riche, you don't know anything. 'Spending money like water' is just a figure of speech, it doesn't mean you actually have to spend a fortune!" Satellite paused, shaking his head as if he felt sorry for Ye Lang.

"I know this can be used as an adjective, but what I'm referring to here is a specific amount of one thousand gold. Sorry I didn't explain it to you earlier, but now you understand, right? So hurry up and hand over the eight hundred gold." Ye Lang said patiently.

"..." The Satellite paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, "Haha..."

"What are you grinning about?" Ye Lang asked, directly turning his loud laughter into a silly grin.

"Laughing like an idiot? I'm laughing out loud!!" Satellite stared coldly at Ye Lang.

Ye Lang asked blankly, "What are you laughing at?" He hadn't yet realized that the other person's tone was unfriendly, and he just asked like that.

"I scoff at your stupidity. You think you can just say a thousand gold pieces and expect it to be worth a thousand gold pieces?" Satellite said with a sneer, raising his noble head in disdain.

"This doesn't seem to be what I said, but what you said yourself?" Ye Lang said calmly.

"When did I say that?!" Satellite scoffed.

"You just said that everyone here can testify!"

"What a joke! Do you think I don't know what I said?"

"You tell me what to order, and you order whatever you want. You'll pay ten times my price. Do you remember that?" Ye Lang asked with a smile.

"Of course I know that. Didn't I just give the madam two hundred gold Gold notes? Could it be that you have more than twenty gold coins? Looking at what you ordered, it's just a little snack!" Satellite sneered, looking down on Ye Lang's order. He usually ordered much more elaborate things.

Actually, he didn't like eating dim sum. He thought dim sum was worthless, and the dishes he ordered were the real expensive ones!

He was wrong. The pastries here are just as expensive, and Ye Lang and his group ordered a lot of them, so Ye Lang's breakfast here wouldn't cost less than what he had spent here before.

"Of course it's more than that! Since it's ten times mine, how can two hundred be enough? Be considerate and take out another eight hundred, or just tell everyone you don't have the money and can't come up with it, and say sorry, then we can let you off the hook. We're very generous!" Ye Lang said with a smile, acting as if we were very kind.

"Ten times it is then, it's not like I can't afford it. What do you mean by eight hundred? Did you give me a hundred?!" Satellite sneered. He would never apologize to everyone or say that he had no money.

He was also surprised that Ye Lang offered one hundred gold coins, which seemed unbelievable. After all, one hundred gold coins was no small sum, and even for Young Master masters from super families like theirs, it would be difficult to come up with such an amount.

Of course, it's not that it's impossible, but it's difficult to spend 100 gold coins at once, especially for something pointless.

"Madam, tell me! How much did he give you?!" Seeing that Ye Lang was about to speak, Wei Satellite immediately asked the madam next to him, because he felt that Ye Lang might be lying, just to make him lose face.

But the madam was different; if she wanted to continue working there, she had to tell him the truth.

"Young Master Wei, this Young Master gave us one hundred gold coins..." the madam said helplessly. She didn't want to talk about it and wanted to stay far away to avoid trouble, but Satellite insisted that she say it, so she had no choice.

"What?! Are you kidding me? He gave you a hundred gold coins? How is that possible?" Satellite was surprised, and seemed a little scared, worried about how this would end.

If he really had to take out a thousand gold coins, it would be like taking his life. After taking out a thousand gold coins, how long would he be without money, a few years or more than ten years?

"This is Gold notes given by this Young Master, this is no joke..." The madam took out Ye Lang's Gold notes to show that what she said was true.

"..." The Satellite fell silent.

"What's wrong? It's nothing really, just a thousand gold coins. If you don't have the money, I can pay you, but there's one condition: from now on, if you see us, get as far away as you can, okay?" Ye Lang said with a smile that made people look a little scared.

People who can laugh and tell others to get lost are terrifying, and this young man seems like someone best avoided.

What no one knew was that Ye Lang's smile and composure stemmed from the fact that he was merely conveying Cold-Blooded Fifth's message, and these were not the words he intended to say. Therefore, he ignored the matter, and thus, his expression remained unchanged; he simply maintained a polite smile.

"I... kid, I'll show you that a thousand gold coins are nothing to me!! Here, this is eight hundred Gold notes!!"

Ye Lang's words and attitude thoroughly provoked Satellite, causing him to start to go a little crazy. The Young Master Liu next to him couldn't stop him in time, while the Young Master Ximen of Ximen just watched coldly from the side.

"Brother Wei, this money is part of our budget! Don't act rashly, take it back!" Young Master Liu glanced at the madam, telling her to keep the Gold notes and not take them back.

"Consider this a loan from me. I'll pay you back. I can still afford to pay you back a thousand!" Satellite said through gritted teeth. Clearly, the thousand gold coins were painful for him.

"Young Master, you are truly a man!" Ye Lang gave a thumbs-up in praise, but to everyone else, this praise felt like blatant sarcasm.

Everyone believed that at this moment, Satellite's heart was bleeding, while Ye Lang cruelly continued to cut with the knife.

"Hmph!" Satellite snorted coldly. If he could, he would definitely pounce on Ye Lang and bite him to death.

"Little Five, Fei Yan, you need to be careful when you look for husbands in the future. Make sure they are not men like Young Master Wei," Ye Lang said very seriously.
