Alvin scoffed at them and rolled his eyes, waiting for more drama.

The manager had a sharp eyes and was discerning.

“Customer, is that what happened? I want to hear from you.”

“Manager, what do you mean? Are you doubting me?” The sales attendant quickly interrupted, looking upset.

“Shut up immediately, unless you want to get fired. Customer, please.”

“I came here to take my sister shopping, in my bid to cheer her up. Who would have expected that your sales attendant would insult us? She even tried to slap me, and all I did here was in self defense. You can check the cameras. All the people I hit were those who tried to hit me first. My sister went through a lot last night barely surviving a life and death accident. I brought her here to cheer her up, and let her clean up before we leave. But your good staff assaulted us, frightening my already scarred sister even more. How do you think we should settle this?” Alvin asked, looking straight at the manager.

The manager watched him carefully, trying to make a, decision.

‘His clothes are stained with dried blood, and he has dried wounds on his hands. So what he said about the accident is probably true. Everyone knows Starlight mall only deals in luxury. If he came here to change clothes after an accident, it means he has enough money to pay. The pendant on the girl's neck was made of purple imperial jade, which is very expensive. She's not ordinary. And she's the daughter of the fallen KS group. The boy might be a friend from another powerful family who came to rescue her after hearing about her family's tragedy. The accident could also mean that the people who harmed her parents came for her last night but the young master arrived in time to rescue her. Besides, these two girls are fond of throwing themselves at rich men while treating cleaners with disdain. Their bloody and muddy clothes must have made the staff despise them. And a proud man used to being worshipped can't swallow that, making him retaliate immediately. He didn't leave after causing trouble which means he has backing. And most importantly, he didn't look at me with lewd gaze. Most men immediately lose composure when they see me, but he met my gaze without the slightest signs of faltering. This can only mean that he's used to being around beautiful and powerful women. He can't be a beggar. His disposition doesn't look like an insecure and terrified bum.’

“You have been staring at me for a long time. What? Do you want to attack me too?” Alvin asked interrupting the manager.

She immediately gave him a beautiful smile.

“You must be joking, young master. Why will I attack an esteemed client? Please, come with us. However, to shop in this section, you have to make a deposit which ranges from two hundred thousand dollars to one million dollars in trust. So that in the case where by a cloth being tested is damaged it could be settled amicably, and money for repair would be deducted. It could also be considered tier one membership f*e.” She said, still smiling.

The deposit was a big lie, but she wanted to test if he had the money to pay.

“Okay.” Alvin said without thinking much, and brought out the card.

“System, is the card ready for use?”

“Of course, will I give you a dummy card? It can work on any machine.”

Alvin offered the card to the manager to inspect it.

‘Gold rimmed black card issued by the world bank? In this whole world, there are less than ten people qualified to have it. It's only below the supreme platinum which has not been issued yet. Thank goodness I came out on time. Otherwise, our store would have lost a big cash cow.’ The manager said mentally, her shrew business mind dancing for joy.

“Go bring the withdrawal machine immediately.” She barked at the sales attendant.

The sales attendant grudgingly obeyed, waiting for the card to decline.

“Young master, how much should we withdraw?” She asked, smiling at Alvin.

“How much will be enough to give her a make over? I don't think we remembered to take her clothes along.” He said, looking at her with his brows furrowed.

“One million will be enough.”

“Make it two million, I will also pick a few things for myself.”

The moment Alvin said this, the two sales attendants began to laugh.

“You want to withdraw two million dollars? Do you even have two thousand dollars?” One of them asked, their voice dripping with disdain.

The manager immediately slapped the speaker, and then swiped the card.

“Payment successful, two million dollars received.” The machine announced.

The hearts of the sales attendants and the security guard who have been standing to the side immediately skipped a few beats.

“Impossible! The machine must be faulty.” The sales attendants shouted simultaneously.

The manager slapped them in exasperation, wondering why they wanted to ruin their stores chance of being the first to make massive sales this morning.

“Get lost immediately.” She shouted, and the two sales attendants turned grudgingly to obey.

“Did I say they could leave after frightening my little sister? Such arrogant people that judge based on looks alone, flattering the powerful while oppressing the weak, should not be allowed to continue in Starlight malls. If they continue working here, things like what happened here will continue to happen. You will lose lots of customers. Besides, they're unrepentant. The only condition for me to return here after today is if you fire them.” He said coldly, making the two women terrified.

They immediately went down on their knees.

“Please, forgive us young master. We didn't know you're…”

“Exactly. You didn't know I had money. That was why you humiliated us—because our clothes were stained with mud and blood. You haven't changed at all. You don't regret your actions. You regret not realizing sooner that I'm not what you initially thought.” Alvin said and scoffed at them.

“The both of you are fired, go to HR and process your severance immediately. And if you linger here for a second, you will be arrested and made to pay for damages.” The manager interrupted, making one of the girls to collapse.

  • YOU'RE THE WORST HYPOCRITE

    “No!” Murong Wuque suddenly pulled his hand away, shivering all over. He stared at the palm that had been stroking him wide eyed, almost as if he broke free from a trance. He looked startled, full of disbelief. His normally icy expression was full of pain and self loathing. He slapped himself, shaking his head in denial. Alvin, who had noticed the withdrawal, opened his eyes, only to see him slapping himself. He immediately sat upright. “Wuque, what's wrong? What are you doing?” Murong Wuque tried to slap himself again, but Alvin caught his hand pulling him closer to the tub. “What the hell are you doing? Why are you hurting yourself?” “Because I have gone insane. I can't believe the images playing out in my mind. I can't believe I almost did that kind of thing.” He kept shaking his head in denial Pain clouded Alvin's face, then disappointment. “What kind of thing? Stroking me? You said you can. If you were not okay with it, why agree? Now you're making me feel like trash

  • setting a trap

    Murong Wuque's hand went to his pajama strings, untying it with a swift tug, then slowly pulling it off him. Alvin helpfully kicked it off, standing in his underpants, which shamelessly exhibited his six inches of tempting meat. Alvin kept watching him intently, noticing the slight hesitation when he reached for the waistband of his underpants. Murong Wuque suddenly didn't look as comfortable as he initially pretended to be, making him smile. “Why? You're no longer confident? Are you scared? Is your body shaking already?” The goading worked on the unsuspecting Murong Wuque and his jaw tightened defiantly. “Nonsense. Why will I be scared of…” He pulled it off swiftly, and Alvin kicked it off. The movement made his half erect meat to bob. Murong Wuque’s breath caught, but he gritted his teeth, carrying Alvin up like he weighed a feather and gently lowering him into the tub. A smile bloomed on Alvin's face. He had never received baby treatment. Hell, he had no memorie

    The sound of running feet interrupted Murong Wuque’s rest. Soon, he felt someone shaking him vigorously. He groaned at the familiar hand, and pulled him into his arms. “Iceman, get up.” Alvin's tone was urgent and full of excitement. This forced Murong Wuque to open his eyes. His limbs felt extremely weak and useless. Last night, he had kept tossing and turning, filled with thoughts of Alvin and his recent silent treatment. He didn't even know when he fell asleep, and kept sleeping till now. He felt unnaturally exhausted, probably due to the state of his mind the night before. He looked at Alvin, and the sleepiness vanished. The elusive bunny finally came to see him, and he was smiling so brightly, filled with excitement. On a closer look, lines had begun to appear on Alvin's face, as if he aged over ten years in a night, with eye bags from exhaustion and sleep deprivation. “What happened to you? You look like crap.” “Wuque, I finally made a breakthrough. The for

  • something is missing

    The room was cold and empty. Since that night three days ago, Alvin rarely returned to the room. Breakfast and dinner were served on time, but that was just about it. He would turn around and leave immediately. Murong Wuque felt confused. He didn't know how to apologize for that sort of thing. He could only regret in silence and remind himself the reason silence was the best currency. He turned around in bed. He wasn't used to Alvin avoiding him. Normally, he was the one getting all touchy-feely, looking for opportunities to grope him. He didn't appear to be the kind of person that bore grudges either, yet he had maintained the silent treatment, giving him annoying monosyllabic replies. He sighed as he thought about it. In fact, he had been sighing quite a lot for the past few days. There seemed to be a gaping hole in his heart, and the feeling that something important was missing kept getting more noticeable to him. Without knowing it, he found himself sniffing Alvin's side

  • Don't pretend to be honest

    “Why do you ask?” “Just answer. Have you seen her? ” Alvin looked totally serious, as if considering something important in his mind. “Don't be ridiculous. She disappeared sixty thousand years before I was born. How do you think I will meet her? I have only seen her portraits, statues, apparitions and spiritual consciousness.” “You've seen her spiritual consciousness? Strands of spirits she left?” Murong Wuque nodded. “Exactly. I have seen her twice in two different forbidden grounds of the Murong clan while hunting or treasure hunting, and once in the shrine when I went to greet her during her birth anniversary.” “Did you feel any affinity with her? Or a special connection?” Murong Wuque dropped his chopsticks. “Alvin, what the hell are you planning? Why does it seem like you're fishing for information? Are you planning to steal the artefacts she left? Alvin, I can forget the mistakes of the past but you must never do something that might bring reproach to us. Absolutely no

  • When home becomes too far

    EARTH, Villa number Seven, Alvin's room. Murong Wuque was standing outside again. Alvin had noticed he had begun to zone out more often, staring at the sky. Although he would never admit it, he was feeling homesick, worrying about the current condition of the celestial realm. In his absence, the villains would definitely be running amok, and his subordinates would be having a hard time subduing them. Alvin set down the tray. He was wearing a black suit trouser and apron, revealing his powerful back muscles. He had just returned from an inspection and rushed into the kitchen to make Murong Wuque's dinner. The others ate a long time ago since Martha always made their food on time. As for the both of them, Alvin was always busy and only makes dinner after settling things that needed to be attended to. This night was no exception. Sometimes, he would microwave the food he made in the morning for dinner. However, he had noticed Murong Wuque preferred freshly cooked meals. Of cou
