Chapter 27 - A Prophetic Utterance

"Haha... Fine! Fan Qianqian, have you given up on even trying to explain yourself?"

Luo Jin laughed bitterly, his voice filled with rage as he roared at her.

Fan Qianqian remained silent. Luo Jin continued his tirade, his voice rising with each word, "Alright, I'll tell you, Fan Qianqian. I don't mind letting you know that I've been accepted by Changhe Real Estate. As soon as I graduate, I'll be working there as an assistant to the director!"

"Do you adore the wealthy so much? Well, let me tell you, it won't take long for me to become one of them. So, do you regret it now? Huh?"

Without giving Fan Qianqian a chance to speak, Luo Jin ranted on, his voice dripping with sarcasm, "I was planning to repay your family after I started working. But now, it seems I don't need to. You, Fan Qianqian, have already latched onto a rich man and soared to the top."

"But remember, Fan Qianqian, they're just toying with you. It won't be long before they grow bored and discard you like trash!"

Luo Jin was about to say more, but Fan Qianqian could no longer bear it. She screamed with all her might, her voice breaking with emotion, "Luo Jin, you heartless bastard!"

"My parents have scrimped and saved for fifteen years, working their fingers to the bone to support your education. You should be grateful to them, and my affairs are none of your business!"

After shouting, Fan Qianqian sat down and began to cry loudly, her heart aching for her parents' sacrifices.

"Fifteen years, and you turned out to be a white-eyed wolf."

"Hahaha... How utterly ridiculous. Did I ask them to save and scrimp? Did I ask them to support my education? Fan Qianqian, from now on, I, Luo Jin, have nothing to do with your family!"

Luo Jin laughed, his voice filled with bitter amusement.

"You ungrateful wretch!" Su Ming, unable to stand it any longer, spoke up coldly, his voice cutting through the tension.

*Ping! Choice triggered!*

"Option 1: Punish the ungrateful Luo Jin, cut off his future, and make him unable to survive in Jiangzhou. Reward: Fan Qianqian's goodwill increases by 30 points."

"Option 2: Stay out of it and do nothing. Penalty: Fan Qianqian's goodwill decreases by 20 points."

Su Ming silently chose option one and began to think.

"What did you say?" Luo Jin turned, his eyes blazing with fury, looking ready to pounce.

Su Ming stood up, his eyes filled with coldness, exuding a terrifying aura.

Luo Jin suddenly felt a wave of panic and found it hard to meet Su Ming's gaze.

"I said, you ungrateful wretch! Her parents supported you for fifteen years, and now, because you can't have their daughter, you're throwing them away. Are you even human?"

"Perhaps, 'ungrateful' is too kind. You're worse than a pig or a dog!"

Su Ming's voice was calm, but each word hit Luo Jin like a heavy hammer, leaving him speechless.

Everyone in the food stall was watching, pointing and whispering about Luo Jin.

Luo Jin, feeling somewhat intimidated, still tried to be defiant. "What do you know? I worked hard and gave most of my earnings to her family. I only kept a little for myself. I've paid back my debt to them!"

"Are you sure you've repaid it?"

Su Ming's voice grew colder. "Do you really think some money can repay it? You haven't understood; what you owe isn't money, it's your life!"

Indeed, fifteen years ago, Luo Jin was only eight, unable to take care of himself. Without Fan Qianqian's family, he would have starved to death on the streets.

Hearing Su Ming's words, Luo Jin's pupils constricted, and he didn't know how to respond.

"Someone like you, a white-eyed wolf, existing in this world is an insult to humanity," Su Ming continued, then took out his phone and dialed Lin Yixue.

"Hello, Su Ming!" Lin Yixue's soft voice came through the phone.

"Yixue, I need you to do something for me," Su Ming said softly, his voice devoid of emotion.

But Lin Yixue could hear the intense anger in his voice. She became serious, "Su Ming, go ahead."

"There's a person named Luo Jin, a college student who has been accepted by Changhe. I want you to cancel his employment and notify all architectural design companies in Jiangzhou. If anyone dares to hire him, cancel all cooperation projects with them."

Lin Yixue was surprised but didn't ask why. "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

"Thanks."

"Don't mention it. I'll see you at the villa tonight."

After hanging up, Su Ming called Susan.

"Chairman Su!"

"Jiangzhou University, Luo Jin, Hongda will never hire him. Notify all architectural design companies, big or small. If anyone hires him, cancel all cooperation with them."

"Yes, Chairman Su!"

Susan executed Su Ming's orders without question.

After the calls, Su Ming put down his phone and sat down, ignoring Luo Jin.

Luo Jin, hearing the calls, felt a wave of panic. But he quickly dismissed it. Could one person have such power?

A few moments later, Luo Jin's phone rang. It was Director Li.

Feeling a sudden panic, Luo Jin answered, "Director Li, what's the matter?"

"Luo Jin, sorry, your employment has been canceled. Changhe will not hire you. Look for other opportunities."

Luo Jin was stunned but quickly recovered. Before he could say anything, the call ended.

"How, how could this be?" Luo Jin muttered, incredulous. Could this person really have such influence?

He quickly scrolled through his contacts and dialed another number.

"Who is this?"

"Manager Xu, it's Xiao Luo, Luo Jin. Weren't you going to hire me? I wanted to ask..."

Before he could finish, the other end shouted, "What Luo Jin? Get lost, who hired you?"

The line went dead again.
