Love From The Koi Goddess

Chapter 49: Showing Off

The screen had lit up, showing the background image clearly. The pin worked.

Peng Fei was stupefied. “How, how did you do that?”

Flinging the phone back to him, she nonchalantly laughed. ” I did as I said, my eyes were closed!”

Even the phone landed onto his hands, Peng Fei was still stuck in a daze, his face white as paper. “Huh! If you can do this, why bother suffering in this industry? Just go win those damned lotteries!”

“How did you know? I just did recently!” Hearing that, Jinli’s face lit up smugly.

“What? You did?” Peng Fei exclaimed in disbelief.

With her fingers showing a victorious peace sign, Jinli proudly flaunted, “Twenty million!”

Hearing that, he fell into a solemn silence. It lasted for a few seconds before his anger and regret erupted, lamenting explosively. “Then you should have said so!”

What the heck! If he had known, he would never have made such bets with this walking ball of luck!

On the other hand, Jinli was genuinely confused, “Why would I mention these trivial things?”

These trivial things?

How is this trivial?

It was not only Peng Fei that couldn’t believe his ears. Everyone else’s jaws were on the floor too.

Only Lu Qingyuan was able to still maintain his gentle smile as he faced this unbelievable Goddess.

“Oh? How cheeky!” He silently muttered under his breath, unheard by the others.

Right at that moment, Xu Zhiyi sauntered back in. She almost seemed to be clad in a glowing aura of euphoria.

Immediately, she noticed the awkward expression on everyone’s faces. “In the time I left, did something happen?”

“Nothing much, I just got myself a son!” Gleefully, Jinli smiled so brightly that her eyes almost became a line.

Confusion swirled within Xu Zhiyi. Naturally, she thought Jinli was dissing her again, and simply rolled her eyes and ignored the comment.

In the other corner, Peng Fei could only look away, hiding his embarrassment.

Then, with her eyes twinkling and a propped up chin, Xu Zhiyi carefully took out an intricate, petite box. Her small, round face could not contain her pride and joy as she showed off the item. “I just received this from one of my admirers!”

He Ye pounced forward with his pupils enlarged, fixated onto the box. “This! This is a box from K.D.!”

Giving a confirmative smile, Xu Zhiyi teased as she opened this box extremely slowly, revealing the intricately crafted accessory within.

A scintillating diamond necklace lured in everyone’s gazes. Under the light, the lustrous accessory glowed, trapping the crowd’s lines of sight onto itself.

Even to Jinli, this was indeed a mesmerising, queenly necklace.

Understandably, He Ye was green with envy. “I just saw this the other day. Its a new product, fresh from the craftsman. It’s worth more than a million!”

Instantly, smugness slathered Xu Zhiyi’s face.

In front of everyone, she took up the necklace and tried it on.

Those flawless, unblemished gems, glittering on the backdrop of Xu Zhiyi’s glossy, pale skin was a sight to behold. Simply bewitching.

Out of nowhere, her gaze suddenly shifted to Jinli, chirpily asking, “Jinli, with your unparalleled looks, I’m sure you have many admirers, You must have received countless treasures from them too, right?”

Without a doubt, her heart was not true to her words.

Since yesterday, she had sized Jinli’s dressing from head to toe. Not a single, luxury accessory was to be found.

HAHA! What a cheap dressing. She must not have encountered this kind of luxurious, high-end product!

A gasp escaped Jinli. She had finally made sense of Xu Zhiyi’s actions and her words.

She’s… showing off?

For Jinli, the feeling was… a fresh experience.

After all, in her billion years of life, no one in the Heavens had ever dared to show off to the Koi Goddess. Not even the annoyingly prideful Peacock Tribe had done so.

Well, it was not that they did not want to… They had no right to. Across the wealthy Gods, Jinli had a dominating lead ahead of everyone in terms of their treasured possessions.

Even the Gods loved to maintain their image. No one would ask for trouble like this senselss Xu Zhiyi.

As Jinli gazed upon this rare specimen, she shook her head honestly. “Nope. No one ever gave me this stuff…”
