Can't You Tell the Difference

Qin Xuan only felt the world spinning around him, his mind completely blank.

The members of the taekwondo club next to him were even more silent, not daring to make a sound.

What kind of figure was Old Man Chu?

He actually had to maintain great respect for Qin Xuan too!

At this moment, they finally realized that Qin Xuan was not only good at fighting, but even his identity was not something these so-called campus celebrities could reach.

Just as Yang Hao was about to apologize, he saw Qin Xuan wave his hand impatiently, "Don't disturb my meal here, hurry up and leave."

"Yes, yes, we're leaving now. Take your time eating. From now on, every member of our taekwondo club is your..."

"Get lost!"

"..."

Yang Hao and the others fled in panic.

After leaving the cafeteria, Yang Hao immediately sent a voice message in the taekwondo club WeChat group.

"Listen up everyone, from now on, Qin Xuan is the god in our hearts. No matter who sees him, treat him like an ancestor. He is someone we can never afford to offend!"

"Also, if you see Cheng Tao from the English Department Class 2 in the future, beat him up whenever you see him. I'll f**k his grandmother!"

Facing his phone, Yang Hao spoke at a rapid pace, his mouth almost cramping.

Thinking of how that bastard Cheng Tao, after taking out the Jinmeiyuan VIP card, told him to go find trouble with Qin Xuan...

Yang Hao wished he could kill that bastard Cheng Tao immediately!

It goes without saying.

Tomorrow at school, there will be another sensational incident, and Qin Xuan's name will echo through Yuncheng University again!

...

In the cafeteria.

Chu Qingqiu apologized repeatedly.

Qin Xuan kept his head down eating without responding to her.

Chu Qingqiu felt awkward. Gritting her teeth, she said, "Mr. Qin, there will be a rather grand auction at Baolong Auction House later. Are you interested in going to take a look together?"

She was very smart, knowing that endless flattery was futile. It would be better to take a different approach to attract Qin Xuan's attention.

Sure enough.

Qin Xuan spoke up, "Any good auction items?"

Chu Qingqiu smiled and said, "There are quite a few good things, such as a bracelet called the Heart of the Ocean, the finale work of the internationally renowned designer Kagay. Because it was his last piece before retirement, the auction price should be sky high."

Qin Xuan raised an eyebrow.

These past few days at school, he occasionally heard some female students discussing jewelry and the like. Among them he had heard of this Heart of the Ocean.

Even ordinary female college students knew about this thing, so this bracelet must be very famous. Whoever could wear it would have an even greater effect than driving a luxury car!

This was taking brand effect to the extreme, a luxury among luxuries!

"Alright, let's go take a look," Qin Xuan nodded.

He planned to see the situation. If there was anything suitable, he could take it back as a gift for Elder Sister and Little Sister, so as not to disappoint their care for him.

Chu Qingqiu was overjoyed!

After the meal.

Qin Xuan got into Chu Qingqiu's car and headed to Baolong Auction House.

This woman had given up even her grandfather's birthday banquet just to ingratiate herself with him, which could be considered going through a lot of trouble.

When they arrived at the auction house, Qin Xuan walked straight to the entrance with Chu Qingqiu following closely behind.

At this time, the auction house owner hurried out and fawned over Chu Qingqiu, "Miss Chu, why have you come without informing me in advance? I could have gone to receive you."

This was the terrifying thing about power and status.

Ordinary people who came would have to verify their assets first before being allowed entry.

But when Chu Qingqiu came, the boss could fawn over her like a dog, personally welcoming her!

"I'm here with Mr. Qin," Chu Qingqiu said with displeasure.

"When Mr. Qin is present, I'm just a minor character. Can't you tell the difference in status?"

"!!!"

The auction house owner's eyelids twitched violently. He immediately looked towards Qin Xuan, scared out of his wits.

This was the young miss of the Chu family after all!

Yet in front of this shabbily dressed young man, she called herself a minor character?

Looking at their positions, Chu Qingqiu was clearly standing behind Qin Xuan, in the standard position of a subordinate.

The owner shuddered violently in his heart. He quickly said, "Mr. Qin, I'm blind. I've slighted you. This is my fault. For anything you bid on later, just pay 80% of the price directly during payment!"

Discounts at auctions?

Qin Xuan was hearing this for the first time.

Before Qin Xuan could speak, the boss quickly added, "Esteemed guests, this way please. I'll take you to the best VIP room."

Very soon.

The two were led to a VIP room entrance.

The owner pushed open the door.

Inside was luxuriously furnished. From the sofas to each teacup, everything exuded an aura of money.

At this moment, sitting on the sofa was surprisingly a girl with twin braids.

"Miss Zhong Shuyao, where is your grandfather?" the owner asked.

"My grandfather went to the bathroom," Zhong Shuyao replied.

"It's like this - two very important guests have arrived, so you may need to give up this VIP room and move to the lobby..." the owner said politely.

Zhong Shuyao immediately looked at the two people behind the owner.

She completely ignored Qin Xuan. Chu Qingqiu, however, surprised her.

"Miss Chu?"

Zhong Shuyao said in astonishment, "It's you? I don't mind sharing a VIP room with you."

There was some connection between them recently.

This Zhong Shuyao was the granddaughter of the top professor at Yuncheng Medical University and famous doctor of Jishi Tang, Zhong Shiren!

Chu Zhenxiong's health had deteriorated, and he had all kinds of minor illnesses that relied entirely on Zhong Shiren's regular treatments.

So even with the difference in status, Zhong Shuyao could still be neither humble nor pushy in front of Chu Qingqiu.

Chu Qingqiu was a little embarrassed now.

Sharing a VIP room with others, she was afraid Qin Xuan would be dissatisfied. But she didn't want to make things too ugly with Professor Zhong's granddaughter either...

Fortunately, Qin Xuan signaled to her with his eyes at this moment, indicating it was fine like this.

Chu Qingqiu relaxed, "Alright, we'll share."

The auction house owner heaved a huge sigh of relief. This was good - no one had to offend anyone!

After the owner left.

Qin Xuan sat directly down on the sofa.

Zhong Shuyao frowned deeply. "What's wrong with you? Don't you know your place? The sofa is for us to sit on. For a servant like you, it would be good enough to have a stool. What are you thinking?"

Servant?

Qin Xuan was stunned.

But Chu Qingqiu knitted her slender brows, her tone three degrees colder, "Miss Zhong, Mr. Qin is an honored guest of my Chu family. You'd better watch your words, or don't blame me for having the owner kick you out."

Zhong Shuyao was baffled again.

In her impression, the young miss of the Chu family was knowledgeable and cultivated, and handled people and matters to perfection. How could she suddenly change her attitude?

What was this country bumpkin's background?

Just as Zhong Shuyao was curious, Zhong Shiren came back.

The moment he saw Qin Xuan, Zhong Shiren's pupils enlarged. He jogged over excitedly, as happy as a child. "Little Brother Qin! I've been wanting to find an opportunity to properly apologize to you these past few days. Didn't expect to run into you here!"

Last time at Chen Yan's house, although Zhong Shiren had been slapped, he didn't have any complaints. He even wanted to apologize!

"???"

Zhong Shuyao was dumbfounded. "Grandpa, what are you doing?"

Zhong Shiren kept apologizing, "This young brother Qin has extraordinary medical skills. His acupuncture technique can be called miraculous. Even if I study until I'm 100 years old, I still can't compare. There was some misunderstanding last time. I've been wanting to apologize but didn't have the chance."

"..."

Not only Zhong Shuyao, even Chu Qingqiu was stunned.

The identity of a young grandmaster was dazzling enough already.

Now he was also proficient in medicine, and even more amazing than the renowned Professor Zhong in Yuncheng?

Just what kind of monster was this!

Zhong Shiren continued, "Miss Chu, with my level I can only regularly go treat your grandfather's illness. If Young Brother Qin is willing to help out, he can definitely cure the root of the illness. I have no doubt about this!"

Chu Qingqiu was a little dizzy.

She had only forced herself to ingratiate Qin Xuan for the sake of family interests originally.

But now, the dazzling brilliance that Qin Xuan couldn't hide started to unconsciously breed admiration in her heart.

Even disregarding family interests, if he told her now to be Qin Xuan's female chauffeur without pay, she wouldn't have any complaints!

"Mr. Qin..." Chu Qingqiu wanted to say something but hesitated, looking at him.

"Let's talk about it later. I'm not free enough to go around curing everyone," Qin Xuan said lightly.

Chu Qingqiu realized she had lost her composure. She apologized repeatedly.

After that, neither Chu Qingqiu nor Zhong Shiren dared sit on the sofa anymore. They brought over small chairs to sit on instead.

"Shuyao, don't you have any common sense? Hurry and bring a chair to sit here. Don't look down on Qin Xuan just because he is younger than you. You should know that the capable come first. You are not qualified to sit with him yet." Zhong Shiren said with a stern face.

Zhong Shuyao felt so wronged that she almost cried...

No common sense?

Wasn't that what she just used to describe Qin Xuan!

She felt something was not right. How could someone younger than her be so medically brilliant? But looking at how her grandfather and Chu Qingqiu were acting, she could only swallow her anger for now and silently pulled over a little stool to sit on.

Qin Xuan imperceptibly sighed.

These people always like to make a big fuss over formalities. It was tiring just to watch.

Soon, the auction started.

There was a big screen in the VIP room that showed the real-time situation. The big shots could watch without having to show their faces.

Through the big screen, Qin Xuan was surprised to see that Chen Aifeng, Chen Yan's father, was sitting in one of the seats in the hall...

Naturally someone like him would not be suitable to show his face. He probably sneaked in with someone else.

After waiting painfully for an hour, the Ocean Heart bracelet was finally brought out for bidding.

This bracelet was truly exquisitely crafted and peerlessly beautiful.

Plus it had more prestige and influence than many luxury cars. This bracelet was enough to drive many people crazy!

"Mr. Qin, you want to get this bracelet as a gift for someone right? Let me bid for it for you." Chu Qingqiu said without hesitation.

Qin Xuan did not want to owe anyone favors, and was about to refuse.

But before he could speak, Zhong Shiren next to him jumped in first: "Ms. Chu, don't spend your money. Let me do it. Because I misunderstood Mr. Qin before, I feel deeply apologetic and this is a chance for me to make up for my mistake."

"What a coincidence. My grandfather also said the wrong thing tonight, so I really need this chance too."

Chu Qingqiu's gaze turned cold, with a determination to never give up like the heroine of the Legend of the White Snake. "Dr. Zhong, you are a man of high morals and reputation. You shouldn't fight with me, a junior, or others might say I don't respect my elders!"

These two were both famous figures in Yuncheng, who countless people looked up to and admired.

Yet now they were fighting over a chance to impress Qin Xuan, as if they were about to come to blows.

Sitting there, Zhong Shuyao felt her heart tossed by towering waves, unable to calm down for a long time.

Just what was the appeal of this country bumpkin to make all these powerful and influential people eagerly trying to curry his favor!!!
