Chapter 84 – How Is It Real?

“Oh right, in honor of our reunion, let’s take a photo!”
Chu Jinyu happily held her phone and moved it upwards. She pretended to unintentionally lean on Lu Ming’s shoulder.
As soon as she pressed the shutter, Lu Ming noticed from the camera that outside the French window behind him, a few Internet celebrities in hot clothes and socialites were posing in front of his car.
This is… using my car to show off? he thought.
“What families are they from?”
Lu Ming frowned and asked.
Chu Jinyu followed his gaze and sized them up briefly before saying, “Although they each have a Chanel bag, they are all pirated. Only that pigeon egg ring is real and of the lowest quality. It’s only 600 thousand yuan. They’re actually taking turns to take photos?”
She paused for a moment before continuing, “The woman leaning on the car door—the red dress she’s wearing is also fake. If I remember correctly, it’s an imitation of a haute couture dress worn by a female celebrity on the red carpet. The designer always makes one-and-only dresses. It’s impossible for two identical dresses to appear.
As for the real price, it’s definitely more than 10 thousand yuan. I also have a custom-made dress from that line in my closet. I’ve basically seen most of the celebrities in the industry, but I’m very unfamiliar with these faces. They’re probably from ordinary families.”
Chu Jinyu’s definition of family background was—those who were not as rich as her were ordinary people.
She touched her chin. In reality, she did not agree with their behavior. After all, no matter how much they pretended to be rich, they could not compare to really rich people. Is it not better to be themselves?
[Host, please make one of the following choices:
Option 1: Leave them alone. Reward: An approachable person’s halo.
Option 2: Get security to chase them away. Reward: ‘If the tiger doesn’t show its might, you’ll think I’m a sick cat’.
Option 3: Raise the pair of wings. Reward: A financial trend chart for the coming month.]
Lu Ming chose option three without hesitation. He took out his car key and pressed a function key.
Before the woman who was taking photos could stop smiling, she realized that her dress had been lifted. Her expression changed instantly and she screamed as she pulled her dress out and ran to the side.
“Ah! What’s going on?!”
When they came upon this car, they had specially looked around and found no one who might be the owner of this car. So they were reassured and boldly posed for photos. Why did the car doors open suddenly?!
A handsome man in casual clothes walked out with a cold expression. “The car is mine.”
Seeing how young he was, the woman in the red dress blurted out without hesitation, “Are you crazy?! We just took a few photos and will be leaving soon. We didn’t disturb you. Do you need to embarrass me in public?”
She was hinting that it was Lu Ming’s honor that she took an interest in his car!
“That’s right. We’ve only been filming for a while, and you’re already like this. Do you have to be so petty?”
A wavy-haired woman beside her added.
He thought, Those who do not know better would think that this car is theirs! How could they be so self-righteous!
Lu Ming sneered and glanced at them. “The car is fake, the bag is fake, and the dress is fake. Is there anything real about you?”
It was obvious that these people had undergone plastic surgery on their faces. His words hit their sore spot!
He continued, “It’s naturally my right to use my car however I want. As for what you said, you haven’t been filming for long. Do you want me to give you the car to satisfy you?”
“That’s a dream, right?”
The woman in the red dress knew he was mocking them for having an inflated sense of themselves. Humiliated, she flew into a rage and said, “Don’t think you’re superior just because you bought a luxury car! It’s the 21st century now. Everyone is equal, understand?!”
“When did I say that everyone is unequal?”
Lu Ming felt that they did not seem to be on the same channel. He said, “You guys violated my rights without permission, understand? I think I need to emphasize one point. I am the owner of this car. You guys took photos here and even took a photo of my car plate number. This violates my personal privacy.
If I sue you, not only will you have to apologize, but you will also have to delete the photos. If your attitude is bad, you might even be detained at the police station for education.”
His words seemed to have given them a shock. They had thought that it was just a few casual photos and not that serious. They did not expect it to be illegal!
Instantly, their faces turned very pale.
The wavy-haired woman retorted, “You’re exaggerating the truth, right? We only took a few photos. We didn’t do anything!”
“Oh? Is that so?”
Lu Ming looked at them with a scary gaze. “Personal privacy is indeed becoming less and less valued, but I particularly care about this. If you don’t apologize and delete the photos, wait to go to court. When the time comes, we will let the judge decide who is right and who is wrong. How about that?”
He rolled his eyes and continued, “By the way, if I win the lawsuit, you will have to pay me the lawyer’s fee.”
Should we apologize and delete the photos, or should we insist on using money to resolve the matter? they wondered.
They had spent their money to adorn themselves, not to mention that they had just bought a pigeon egg ring. So they did not have extra money to compensate Lu Ming.
They had wanted to post the photos to show off, but they did not expect to get into trouble.
So they had no choice but to lower their heads and say, “Sorry.”
Then they deleted the photos on their phones in front of Lu Ming.
Someone muttered before leaving, “Demon.”
Lu Ming, who happened to hear this, raised his eyebrows slightly. If their attitude had been better, he would not have been like this.
They were clearly taking advantage of him, but they still refused to admit it. They had only themselves to blame.
They were deviant and loafed around all day. Sooner or later, they would suffer a backlash.
“Brother Lu Ming?”
Chu Jinyu walked to his side, full of admiration. She seemed to have recalled how Lu Ming protected her when she was young.
Chu Jinyu could not help but say, “What a satisfying retort! If I could also have your eloquence, I might be able to reduce my troubles.”
For example, Han Qianjing.
However, she was afraid that she would never be able to win against her mother.
“Just practice more.”
…
The two of them stayed outside for half a day before going home.
Chu Jinyu did not hide her happiness at all. She was humming an unknown tune when a low female voice suddenly came from behind. “Looks like you guys were having a good time outside.”
His words gave her a shock!
She almost dropped the vase in her hand.. She turned around and said, “Don’t you think you’re a little scary?”
