Space: Super Agricultural Tycoon

Chapter 6: Revenge Part 2

Lan Ruomei and Lin Haotian's hearts filled with dread when they heard Gu Qingming's words. As expected...

"From the time I met you until now, I've given you jewelry, clothes, bags, and so on, worth over three million yuan. Plus, the costs of trips, dining out, and staying at five-star hotels—these expenses amount to over four million. I'll be generous and round it off; you can just pay me back four million." Gu Qingming started calculating the costs.

"So much?" Lan Ruomei could hardly believe it. "The things you gave me were all cheap; how could they cost so much? You must be lying."

"Lying? Lan Ruomei, what do you have that would be worth lying for?" Gu Qingming sneered. "Before you met me, the most expensive thing you wore probably didn't exceed a thousand yuan. But after knowing me, a fool, you started wearing clothes worth thousands, even tens of thousands of yuan per set. The jewelry on you often costs tens of thousands or more. I never shortchanged you on makeup or bags, either."

"And yet, I ended up raising two ingrates," Gu Qingming scoffed at herself. "No, you were wolves with savage intentions all along."

Lan Ruomei's face showed a complex mix of emotions, and Lin Haotian's expression wasn't much better.

"Fine, since you two disdain me so much, isn't it only right for me to take back what I gave?" Gu Qingming said coldly. "I'd rather feed my things to the dogs than leave a single thing with you."

They enjoyed the luxuries she provided while constantly scheming against her, using her, trampling on her, wishing they could bury her in the mud. Gu Qingming was no pushover, nor a saint. With their malicious intentions towards her, she couldn't just overlook everything and not hold them accountable.

"You can't!" The thought of losing those expensive accessories and bags made Lan Ruomei's heart ache. "Those things were gifts from you, they're my private property now. You have no right to take them back!"

If those things were really taken away, how could she continue to dress herself up elegantly? A woman needs three parts color and seven parts decoration. Without these items to enhance her appearance, how would she attract the attention of wealthy heirs and elite men? Seeing the situation, Lin Haotian was already ruined; she needed to think about her future. She didn't want to live a life worrying about basic needs forever; she wanted to be a wealthy wife, spending money like water. Her greed and selfishness were unmistakably evident at this moment.

Gu Qingming glanced at her with disdain and then said calmly, "Oh, if I report to the police that my things are missing, do you think they would open a case? According to the law, stealing items of great value can lead to several years in prison."

Lan Ruomei's pupils shrank, disbelief on her face. She pointed at Gu Qingming and stammered, "You... how can you do this? Those things were gifts from you!"

"Heh, gifts from me?" Gu Qingming chuckled coldly. "Do you have any evidence or proof of that? However, I do have all the receipts for the things I gave you!"

Her father had taught her that for business people, receipts and invoices are very important and must be kept, regardless of the amount. Originally, she didn't care much about the things she gave Lan Ruomei, after all, Lan Ruomei was her best friend, and she willingly gave those things to her. But keeping the receipts had become a habit for her, a habit of categorizing and keeping them. She never expected that one day she would use these things to deal with someone she once treated sincerely.

Lan Ruomei, like a balloon filled with air, burst with a "pop." Her eyes burned with anger as she glared at Gu Qingming, shouting, "Gu Qingming, you vicious woman! How can you do this? You want to completely destroy me, don't you? You will definitely get your karma!"
