Chapter 68: 68 After You, Part Two

68 After You, Part Two

“Shen Fei, I wonder what kind of gift you’ve prepared this time?”

Young Master Luo looked at Shen Fei with ill intentions and spoke loudly for the surrounding people to hear.

“Why don’t you take it out and let everyone have a look?”

In an instant, everyone’s eyes were focused on Shen Fei.

“That’s right. Shen Fei, what gift did you prepare?”

“Hurry up and present it. We won’t blame you if you didn’t bring anything.”

“Everyone here knows that your family’s been in poverty for so long. Even if you can’t afford to give gifts, we won’t look down on you.”

All the young masters present burst into laughter.

“I’ll go and give it to him then.” Shen Fei took out a simple box from his pocket and quickly walked up to Lear.

The moment he saw the box, Luo Jin heaved a sigh of relief. It was a good thing that he had successfully diverted everyone’s attention. Even if his gift looked bad, it definitely could not be worse than Shen Fei’s.

By his turn, it would be considered reasonable.

‘Tsk.’

After seeing the present in Shen Fei’s hands, Lear looked at Shen Fei with a hint of disdain.

‘What is he holding in his hand? Why does he look so poor?’

He simply could not be compared to the two young masters before him. Lear did not even want to look at the gift.

“I offer you this gift, please accept it.” Shen Fei took the initiative to pass the gift box to Lear.

The box gave off the impression that it had been bought from an ordinary supermarket. Lear immediately frowned. He could clearly detect the lingering smell of the market from it.

‘What kind of good gift could this box contain?’

Lear laughed coldly. He did not even want to touch this kind of thing. He would let Shen Fei open it himself.

“Open it and let me see what you’ve put inside it.”

“This is your birthday present.” Shen Fei immediately pushed the box into Lear’s hands.

“It’s against the rules for me to open it.” Lear forced a smile and resisted the urge to throw the box away.

Would it not be against the rules for Lear to be engaged to Aloy though?

‘I’ll show him not to stand in my way. He’ll count himself lucky if he ever manages to step onto the Gelin family’s threshold again!’

Lear reached out and opened the box.

Inside the box was a fire-attribute spirit fruit that beat like a heart. The only difference was that there was a golden halo on top of the fruit.

Lear sneered.

‘A high-grade spirit fruit. It seems that Shen Fei has indeed put in a lot of effort.’

However, Lear only needed to ask around for a while and even he would be able to acquire one as well. This was not as precious as the gifts from the other two young masters.

“You’re going to give me such a poor gift on my birthday?” Lear said fiercely.

The box that Shen Fei had presented was thrown aside and smashed to pieces, and the high-grade spirit fruit rolled out of the box.

Young Master Luo’s expression changed the moment he saw the spirit fruit. The humiliation he suffered from Shen Fei, as well as the near-death of his spirit beast, repeatedly flashed through his mind.

He gritted his teeth in anger.

That basket of high-grade spirit fruits should belong to him! However, Shen Fei had forcefully snatched it away from him!

“I thought that Shen Fei had given me something good. But it was just a high-grade spirit fruit that’s a bit on the rare side.”

“That’s right.” Young Master Zhang deliberately put on a pitiful expression as he looked at Shen Fei. “Compared to the guardian crystal I gave you, it’s like heaven and earth.”

Young Master Li nodded soberly beside him, a proud smile on his face.

‘Let’s see how Shen Fei is going to compete with the two of us.’

Shen Fei’s expression changed. “What is the meaning of this?”

Not only did he not accept the gift, but he also threw the carefully prepared spirit fruit on the ground.

Were cultivation resources free?

“What do I mean? You should know it in your heart.” Lear regarded Shen Fei coldly. “To think that you can give such a shabby thing… Your family is already in such dire straits, so I don’t want to snatch your food away. You’d better keep this spirit fruit to satisfy your hunger.”

Hearing this, Shen Fei clenched his fists and his eyes burned with anger.

Seeing this, Aloy quickly grabbed Shen Fei’s hand and picked up the spirit fruit. She forced a smile at Lear.

“Uncle’s present may be light but Shen Fei’s intentions are heavy. He has put in a lot of effort to come and see you. Don’t look down on him.”

“Young Lady Aloy, you can’t say that,” mocked Young Master Li. “Although it’s said that his heart was in the right place, compared to the cultivation manual that I’ve painstakingly collected, I can’t even tell what this lousy fruit should signify.”

He laughed smugly. Even if Shen Fei won the battle, what could he do? In terms of financial resources and background, Shen Fei was still inferior to them!

“That’s enough, Aloy. I know he’s your fiancé, and you two might have some feelings for each other, but you don’t have to be so biased toward him.” Lear immediately raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Fei fiercely. “He’s a person who can’t even afford to give a gift. He’s not qualified to be your fiancé at all!

“I’ll talk to your father later and ask him to cancel the engagement! The things that you gave Shen Fei before, just treat it as us giving alms to a beggar.”

When Aloy heard this, she grinaced.

‘Who does this lunatic think he is?!’

She was working hard to ensure the survival of mankind in the future. It was not easy for her to get on with Shen Fei. How could she give up so easily?

The people in front of her were really short-sighted! If they could see what she saw, they definitely would not have made such a claim.

Aloy grabbed Shen Fei’s hand without hesitation.

“I will not agree to break off the engagement.”

“You have to agree even if you don’t want to!” Lear glared at Aloy assertively. “This marriage agreement is in our family’s hands. It’s up to our family whether it’s carried out or not! ”

“But I like him!” Aloy raised her head and tightly held Shen Fei’s hand. “I like him so much that I won’t marry anyone but him!”

“Goddess, what did you say?”

“Stop joking, goddess!”

These words were like a heavy hammer, ruthlessly hitting everyone’s heads. The few young masters present felt their chests tighten and almost spat blood.

They stared at Aloy in shock.

How could the once proud goddess say such words now? Did Shen Fei put some kind of spell on her? Furthermore, what did Shen Fei have that they did not?

Was it because he had won against them once or twice in the arena?

Lear suppressed the urge to laugh and looked at Aloy with a pained expression.

“Aloy, how could you fall for Shen Fei? He has no money, no status, and no strength. It’s so difficult for him to even give a gift.

“Think about it carefully. You’ll just suffer for the rest of your life if you follow such a person! Is he blackmailing you?”

Aloy shook her head firmly and said, “I like him. I really, really like him—”

“Enough!” Lear harshly interrupted Aloy.
