Chapter 2265: Smartness Misled by Smartness

Liu Manqiong did not expect that the birthday gift Ye Chen casually gave her would be so expensive.

So expensive that even the old man of the Fei family only begged for half a pill from Ye Chen!

Thinking of this, she suddenly had mixed feelings in her heart.

At this moment, she had the joy of a young girl in her heart, and also the panic of receiving a reward without merit.

However, she did not expect that Fei Kexin's next sentence would scare her dumbfounded.

I saw Fei Kexin struggling for a long time, looking at Liu Manqiong, and asking extremely seriously: "Miss Liu, do you plan to sell this Blood-Dispersing Heart-Saving Pill? If you plan to sell it, I am willing to pay 10 billion US dollars!"

Few people know the actual value of Rejuvenation Pill and Blood-Dispersing Heart-Saving Pill better than Fei Kexin.

Not to mention the Rejuvenation Pill that can be sold for 300 billion US dollars, even the Blood-Dispersing Heart-Saving Pill is a top-grade product that can cure all diseases and heal thousands of wounds. Even a dying person can prolong their life for three to five years.

For those who are at the end of their rope, they are even willing to trade five years of life for 50,000 yuan. For example, those young people who sold a kidney just to buy an Apple phone, for 20,000 or 30,000 yuan, even reduced their lifespan by more than ten years.

However, for the top-tier people who have mastered the world's top wealth, they are even willing to spend 1 billion or even billions of US dollars to prolong their life for even just one year.

Fei Kexin hopes to buy this Blood-Dispersing Heart-Saving Pill. If her grandfather's health has any problems in the future, with this pill, she can ensure that he safely passes the hurdle.

Therefore, even 10 billion US dollars is nothing to Fei Kexin, and in her eyes, if she can buy a Blood-Dispersing Heart-Saving Pill at this price, it can be considered very cost-effective.

Liu Manqiong felt her scalp go numb.

She could not believe that just a birthday gift Ye Chen casually gave her was worth 10 billion US dollars in Fei Kexin's eyes...

Her father had struggled for a lifetime to create a family property of nearly 10 billion US dollars, and now, a pill Ye Chen gave her could easily be worth his lifetime of effort.

This made Liu Manqiong so shocked that she did not know what to say.

After hesitating again and again, Liu Manqiong said with a face full of apology: "I'm sorry, Miss Fei, this pill is a birthday gift from Ye Chen, I... I want to keep it well... I hope you can understand."

Fei Kexin was a bit stunned, but still reacted quickly, smiled slightly, and nodded: "It's okay, it doesn't matter, this is a gift he gave you, it must be of extraordinary significance to you..."

As she spoke, Fei Kexin suddenly felt a bit aggrieved in her heart.

She knew that it was impossible for her to be more important than Gu Qiuyi or Ito Nanako in Ye Chen's heart.

But she did not understand why she was not even as important as Liu Manqiong in Ye Chen's heart.

She asked herself in her heart: "Why... Ye Chen and Liu Manqiong have only known each other for a few days, why is Ye Chen so good to her..."

Thinking of this, she looked up at Liu Manqiong again.

She had to admit that Liu Manqiong was indeed very beautiful. This girl, who was usually a bit cold and very delicate, looked even more pitiful after crying like rain.

But Fei Kexin felt that she was not worse than Liu Manqiong.

Seeing Fei Kexin looking at her in a daze, Liu Manqiong could not help but ask: "Miss Fei... you won't be angry with me, right?"

Fei Kexin hurriedly shook her head: "No... of course not..."

As she spoke, she pointed to the small wooden box in Liu Manqiong's hand and urged: "Miss Liu should keep this pill well. This thing is priceless. Try not to let others know."

"Okay..." Liu Manqiong nodded, put the small wooden box close to her body, and then remembered something, hurriedly asking Fei Kexin: "By the way, Miss Fei, how do you know Ye Chen so well? Do you know each other for a long time?"

"Not really." Fei Kexin said: "We haven't known each other for long, just a month or two."

Liu Manqiong was incredibly shocked and asked her: "You've only known Ye Chen for a month or two, why do you know him so well?!"

Fei Kexin laughed at herself and said: "Who told me to be smart and insist on getting to the bottom of his situation? As a result, the deeper I dug, the deeper I fell."

As she spoke, Fei Kexin smiled: "Sometimes being too smart is not a good thing. When I knew he liked Ito Nanako, I was also like you, sad for a whole day."

Liu Manqiong was even more confused: "Miss Fei, how did you know?"

Fei Kexin smiled: "Reasoning."

As she spoke, Fei Kexin said: "Actually, Fei Kexin knew that Ye Chen seemed to have a sense of distance from her all along."

She had never understood why before, and thought it was because she had deliberately used the pseudonym Zhan Feier to deceive Ye Chen, making Ye Chen dissatisfied with her.

However, at this moment, she suddenly understood a bit.

Ye Chen kept a certain distance from her, perhaps because he felt she was too smart.

For someone with multiple identities like Ye Chen, he must not want others to know too much about him, and because she was too smart and could piece together the hidden situation from various clues, she would definitely bring a certain sense of crisis to Ye Chen.

Therefore, it was natural for Ye Chen to keep a certain distance from her.

Thinking of this, Fei Kexin was a bit annoyed.

People often say that smartness is misled by smartness, and she might also be another interpretation of this sentence.

Just at this moment, Fei Kexin saw Ye Chen walking over from across the road.

So, she hurriedly whispered to Liu Manqiong: "Miss Liu, Mr. Ye is back. Don't let him know what we just talked about."

Liu Manqiong hurriedly nodded: "Miss Fei, don't worry, I understand..."

Soon, Ye Chen came back with a newly bought phone case.

He did not have time to sit down, so he put the phone case in front of Liu Manqiong and said: "Miss Manqiong, try this phone case. I specifically bought an opaque one, so you won't see the cracks on the back of the phone."

After Fei Kexin's preaching and learning the value of that Blood-Dispersing Heart-Saving Pill, Liu Manqiong's previous grievances had been swept away, replaced by a heartfelt touch. Seeing Ye Chen specifically go to buy a phone case for her, she felt even more ashamed, so she hurriedly nodded and said: "Thank you, Mr. Ye..."

Seeing that her emotions had calmed down a lot, Ye Chen felt relieved. He smiled slightly and urged: "If you don't want to change to a new phone, it's best to keep the phone case on, otherwise it will be scratched."

"I know, Mr. Ye..." Liu Manqiong nodded repeatedly, and at the same time hurriedly unpacked the phone case and put it on her broken phone.

The phone case fit perfectly and was very handy. There was even a cartoon pattern on the back, which was a very cute cartoon puppy.

Liu Manqiong seemed to like this phone case very much. She held it in her hand and couldn't help but play with it repeatedly, and her mood instantly became much better.

Fei Kexin, who was on the side, saw Liu Manqiong showing a smile like a child, and could not help but feel a sense of envy in her heart.
