Looking at the comments flooding the livestream, it seemed as if Xia Liang was already her boyfriend.

Just then, several staff members from the commercial street walked over. "Please leave. You have been blacklisted by our commercial street and Yida Plaza. You are not welcome here."

The female influencer was dumbfounded. She was a major internet celebrity; when had she ever been driven away like this? "Do you have any idea who I am? How dare you keep me out of here? Believe it or not, I'll sue you for infringing on consumer rights in a heartbeat!"

The staff had no patience for her antics. "You can sue all you want, but right now, you need to leave. Otherwise, we will be forced to remove you."

Seeing their resolute expressions, the influencer started to panic. If she were driven out of the commercial plaza in front of such a large crowd, she feared she would never have the face to livestream again.

Suddenly recalling Xia Liang's identity, she began to shout, "Do you know what my relationship is with your boss? I was just interviewing him on my stream! If he knew you were treating me like this, you'd all be fired!"

The more she spoke, the more carried away she became, spouting all sorts of nonsense. "Besides, he really seemed to like me! Who knows? Maybe I'll be your boss's wife in the future, and then I'll fire all of you."

The staff members looked at her as if she were an idiot before they began dragging her out of the commercial street. "To be honest with you, it was Mister Xia who asked us to escort you out."

The influencer was publicly humiliated on the spot, and the entire scene was broadcast live to her online audience.

The incident caused a huge stir. The influencer promptly sued the commercial street and Yida Plaza, but they countered by stating she had been promoting inappropriate rhetoric.

A minor internet celebrity daring to take on such powerful entities? From that day forward, she was completely blacklisted. Countless men who had been tormented by her celebrated the news.

After dealing with Wenwen, a staff member approached Xia Liang. "Let me show you around the rest of the plaza."

Xia Liang waved his hand dismissively. "I just came to wander around, that's all. What's the point of having a whole group of you tailing me? All of you, stop following me."

The commercial street manager looked embarrassed. "Mister Xia, we're just concerned about your safety. After all, this place has all sorts of people. We can't help but worry..."

Before the manager could finish, Xia Liang helplessly grabbed Su Yi's arm and walked away. "Stop following me. I'm perfectly safe. If you continue, don't blame me for being rude."

Watching their departing figures, the manager didn't dare to follow.

Having shaken off the crowd of bootlickers, the two began to wander through the commercial street. They soon passed a Prada Store where a couple was arguing at the entrance.

The girl pointed at her boyfriend, whining loudly, "I just want to buy one bag, and you won't even agree to that! You don't love me!"

The man explained in a meek, quiet voice, "That bag costs my entire month's salary. Wouldn't it be better to save the money for a house? When I make it big later, I'll buy you any bag you want."

The girl stomped her foot hard. "I want the bag! I want it now! If you don't buy it, you don't love me!"

At this, the man started to get angry too. "So not buying a bag means I don't love you? By that logic, is there any true love left in this world?"

The girl's eyes darted around as an idea struck her. "I'll ask a random couple. If they say I shouldn't buy the bag, then I won't!"

Without waiting for her boyfriend to agree, she turned to Su Yi, who was just passing by. "Excuse me? Do you think it's too much for a girl to ask her boyfriend to buy her a bag?"

Su Yi was taken aback for a moment before she composed herself and answered earnestly and politely, "I feel that a girl shouldn't make too many demands of her boyfriend."

The girl was dumbstruck. She had decided to ask Su Yi precisely because she was dressed head-to-toe in new designer brands, but she never expected such an answer.

The boyfriend, thinking Su Yi was helping him, had a look of pleasant surprise and shot her a grateful glance. This girl not only looks like a goddess, but she's also kind-hearted!

"Xiao Mei, see? Even she says girls shouldn't make so many demands on their boyfriends."

Undeterred by Su Yi's lack of support, the girl turned to Xia Liang. "Handsome, let me ask you a question. If you loved your girlfriend, would you be willing to spend a month's salary to buy her a bag?"

Her question was incredibly tricky. Under normal circumstances, any man would say yes. After all, it was just a hypothetical question, not an actual purchase. And with his girlfriend right there, no sane man would ever say no.

Su Yi almost laughed out loud. Why is it always about a month's salary? That influencer asked the same thing, and now this girl is too. She already knew exactly how Xia Liang would answer.

The other man's face turned bitter; he too could guess Xia Liang's answer.

Xia Liang replied helplessly, "Of course not."

His words left everyone stunned. The girl felt her entire worldview shatter. A man this stingy actually exists in the world? Although this man was dozens of times more handsome than her boyfriend, at least her boyfriend would try to sweet-talk her. This guy in front of her wouldn't even tell a white lie. There's no justice in this world for a guy like that to have a girlfriend!

The other man felt a sudden urge to kneel and kowtow to Xia Liang in gratitude. What a good person! He sacrificed his own relationship just to save me!

The girl looked at Su Yi with pity. "Honey, your boyfriend won't even spend a month's salary on a bag for you. What are you waiting for to break up with him? A man like that will never bring you happ—"

Before she could finish, Su Yi interrupted, wrapping her arms tightly around Xia Liang's. "My boyfriend only earns a few thousand Yuan a month. What kind of bag could possibly cost that much?"

Xia Liang couldn't help but smile. She was a quick learner.

He pulled Su Yi into the nearby Prada Store, leaving the couple standing there utterly confused.

A monthly income of a few thousand Yuan? What bag could possibly be that expensive? Is he for real? Or is she just saying that?

The girl came to her own conclusion. It wasn't that Xia Liang was unwilling to spend a month's salary; it was that the bags were so cheap they weren't *worth* a month of his salary. No wonder Su Yi was dressed in luxury brands yet said not to make too many demands. Her boyfriend was so rich he bought her things without her even having to ask. Why would she need to make demands?

The man, on the other hand, felt a soul-crushing blow. So that's why he has such a beautiful, gentle, and understanding girlfriend. If I had that kind of money, my girlfriend wouldn't dare to be so demanding.

The girl looked at her own stingy boyfriend, and a wave of irrational anger flared up. He was nothing compared to the handsome man who had just left. She forcefully flung his hand away and snapped, "Didn't you want to go home and be alone? Well, go on then!"

The man instantly reverted to his bootlicker persona, all his previous bravado gone. "I was wrong! Home is wherever you are! That guy was just bluffing. A few thousand a month? You really believe that? Why didn't he just claim to be the son of the richest man in the world?"
