Chapter 1225: How Much Are Your Clothes?

~8 min read 1,442 words

At this moment, Chen Yu was still at an altitude of ten thousand meters, and would have to wait over half an hour before landing.

In business class, Chen Yu was resting with his eyes closed, while a woman sat beside him.

The woman wore sunglasses and had an arrogant expression; it was clear she was someone who did not lack money.

Her appearance was that of a cold and haughty "imperial sister" type, and she would take out a small mirror from time to time, constantly applying something to her face.

Chen Yu had been meditating with his eyes closed the entire time and had not noticed this woman.

It was not until he heard a scream: "What are you doing? Can't you be more careful? My clothes are very expensive; can you afford to pay if they get dirty?"

Opening his eyes, he saw this woman yelling at a flight attendant.

This flight attendant must have had her hand slip because the plane suddenly hit some turbulence while she was pouring water, which was why she accidentally dirtied the woman's clothes.

The woman began to shriek loudly; her voice even drowned out the sound of the plane's engines, and her roaring echoed throughout the entire cabin.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I'll help you wash it, I'm really sorry." This flight attendant must have just started the job and didn't know how to handle such a sudden situation; she lowered her head and apologized incessantly.

"Is 'sorry' enough?" The woman's voice grew louder: "Do you think my clothes can be washed just anywhere? Can you afford to pay if you ruin them? This piece of clothing cost tens of thousands; you couldn't afford to pay for it even if you worked as a flight attendant for a lifetime."

The woman's voice was too shrill and too arrogant, drawing side-glances from everyone.

It was just that no one wanted to be the so-called "bleeding heart" right now, so everyone turned a blind eye and acted as if they hadn't seen it.

"It's just a piece of clothing, there's no need to make such a big deal out of it, right?" Chen Yu finally couldn't help it.

It wasn't that Chen Yu wanted to meddle in other people's business, but this woman's voice was truly too loud, making Chen Yu's eardrums buzz.

He was truly speechless; he spent money to buy a business class seat for the sake of a little peace and quiet, but with this woman yelling and screaming, how could it be quiet?

"Do I need you to care? Who are you anyway? Meddling in other people's business." The woman turned her head and yelled angrily at Chen Yu: "Do you know how much this clothing of mine costs?"

"How much?" Chen Yu glanced at her and said: "Truly wealthy people wouldn't argue over a piece of clothing worth a few hundred thousand."

"Isn't the reason you're like this just to tell everyone that your clothes are very expensive? What, is this a new way to show off wealth?" Chen Yu sneered: "Now that you've made such a scene, does everyone know how much your clothes cost?"

"What nonsense are you spouting?" The woman was embarrassed and angry; Chen Yu's words struck straight at her heart.

That's right, if she didn't make a scene, how would others know her clothes were very expensive?

"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, you know in your own heart. An internet celebrity, right?" Chen Yu glanced at her.

"How did you know? Are you my fan?" The woman was slightly stunned.

"A fan?" Chen Yu laughed: "I don't even follow stars, would I pay attention to an internet celebrity? Be a bit more low-key. Have you paid your taxes? Have you evaded or avoided taxes? Do you want me to make a call to the tax bureau to check on you?"

"You, you..." The woman immediately lost her fire; she didn't dare.

Because she knew in her heart how much tax she had evaded and avoided, and since Chen Yu could afford to sit in business class, he certainly wasn't an ordinary person.

If Chen Yu really made a phone call, and the authorities investigated her tax evasion, what would she do? At that moment, the woman lost her fire.

She glared at the flight attendant: "Forget it, you go. I don't think you look like you can afford to pay for it anyway, don't bother me here."

The flight attendant felt very wronged, but she had no choice when encountering such a person; she could only lower her head and apologize incessantly.

"Apologize to her," Chen Yu said indifferently.

"What did you say?" The woman turned her head back, unable to believe she was looking at Chen Yu: "I'm not even holding her accountable anymore, and you still want me to apologize to her?"

"Either apologize, or I'll notify the tax bureau after we get off the plane. Don't doubt my ability; I can have you thrown in jail in minutes," Chen Yu sneered.

Chen Yu's aura completely scared the woman out of her wits, because the recent news about a certain big-name internet celebrity evading taxes was currently causing a huge stir.

She knew in her heart how many gaps she hadn't had time to fill yet, so she didn't dare to gamble her future on tomorrow.

She stiffened her face, and seeing that Chen Yu didn't look like he was joking, she had no choice but to apologize to the flight attendant in a low and humble voice.

"It's okay, no need, it was my fault to begin with." The flight attendant was so scared she waved her hands frantically.

"Don't be afraid, don't ever give face to people like this," Chen Yu sneered. Hmm, this flight attendant looked quite nice.

Frightened by Chen Yu, the woman became much more low-key; she immediately shrank into her seat like a turtle, not even daring to breathe loudly.

The plane soon arrived at Modu Airport, and as the taxiing ended, the plane came to a steady stop.

"Hello, my name is Li Wan, this is my phone number." Just before getting off the plane, the flight attendant slipped a note to Chen Yu, then ran away looking shy.

Chen Yu was stunned; was this a romantic encounter?

He then shook his head with a bitter smile and followed the crowd off the plane.

That internet celebrity glared fiercely at Chen Yu and also slunk away.

Chen Yu had no intention of letting her off; if she could last until her next livestream after a few phone calls from him, he would consider it his loss.

He followed the flow of people out of the airport to the arrival station. In the crowd ahead, a figure waved at Chen Yu: "Teacher."

Chen Yu looked up and saw it was Zhou Meng.

"You didn't have to come to pick me up," Chen Yu walked to her side and smiled.

"You came here, how could I not pick you up?" Zhou Meng smiled: "Let's go."

Chen Yu had already booked a hotel when he came here, and the two of them got into a taxi.

"Have your matters been resolved?" Chen Yu asked.

The matter he was referring to was naturally the issue with Zhou Meng's boyfriend.

"It's all resolved, that side has been dealt with." Zhou Meng nodded slightly; mentioning this, her mood was still a bit low.

"En, it's good that it's resolved," Chen Yu said: "Don't take it too much to heart; these things weren't your fault to begin with."

"Thank you, Teacher, I know." Zhou Meng nodded, then smiled: "Is Teacher staying in Modu for a while this time?"

"En, it depends on when the matter I need to handle can be resolved. If it can be resolved sooner, I will leave sooner," Chen Yu nodded slightly and said.

"Is Teacher here to find someone? What is their name? What do they look like? Do you have any contact information?" Zhou Meng asked.

"No," Chen Yu revealed a trace of a bitter smile.

He didn't even know what Liu Lianxin's awakened body looked like, how old she was, or what her name was; he could only rely on his own intuition to find her.

"Then... should we go to the police station to ask?" Zhou Meng asked.

"No need, it wouldn't help even if we went, because I don't have a single clue; I'm just relying on my own intuition," Chen Yu shook his head and said: "You don't need to worry about these things, I can handle it myself."
