Divine Lucky Star-Chapter 71 - : Plucking Feathers from a Passing Goose
Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Plucking Feathers from a Passing Goose
“You just said you are Miss Ice Princess’s friend?!” Fang Wenbin exclaimed, “How is that possible?! Miss Ice Princess has never had any friends. In all these years, I’ve never heard of her having a casual chat with anyone, let alone a guy!”
Eh? Could it be? The famous Ice Princess Bai Yaning doesn’t even have a single friend?!
The people below were also getting restless. The guy with white hair hurried over and said, “I warn you, don’t talk nonsense! Who do you think you are? Claiming to be Miss Ice Princess’s friend, are you trying to glorify yourself?”
Wang Hao didn’t bother with him but instead found it amusing to watch Fang Wenbin sitting in front of him.

What a joke, back in the day, I was part of a group too, I did whatever I wanted! When your boss was talking business with me, when did it become your place to pipe up as a lackey?
Wang Hao looked at Fang Wenbin with a smile and asked, “Your little brother, huh?”
“Haoming, go back,” Fang Wenbin frowned, “Just sit there and don’t make trouble.”
“Okay… okay,” seeing Fang Wenbin getting somewhat angry, the young man named Haoming quickly retreated.
That’s better! Don’t they know it’s disgraceful for lackeys to interrupt when the big brother is speaking?
“Speaking of which, you actually surprised me,” Fang Wenbin took a deep breath, looked at Wang Hao, and said solemnly, “You just said you are Miss Ice Princess’s friend, why should I believe you? She’s never had friends for all these years.”
Why should you believe me? Want to check the chat history? I still have it saved!
“Hehe, sorry, I really can’t prove it to you,” Wang Hao chuckled, leaning back in his chair, glanced at Fang Wenbin sitting in front, then at the few younger brothers and sisters sitting next to him, and continued mockingly, “Actually, I hadn’t expected Ice Princess to have no friends, but when I saw you, I understood why.”
“Oh? Can’t prove it, yet you understand what’s happening? I’d like to hear your brilliant thoughts,” Fang Wenbin narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke softly, “Tell me, what have you figured out?”
Wang Hao asked, “First off, you like Miss Ice Princess, that’s beyond doubt, right?”
“Yes,” Fang Wenbin nodded, “That’s not a secret at all. It’s normal that you could tell.”
“That’s it,” Wang Hao said, “You like Miss Ice Princess, and I can naturally imagine, many, many others like her too. And you rushed here to meet me as soon as you found out my identity, what does that tell you? It indicates that the competition among you is very fierce, like a pack of wolves fighting for the Alpha’s throne. In your minds, whoever among you becomes that Alpha, the most beautiful she-wolf in the pack will naturally become his wife, am I right?”
“That…” Fang Wenbin carefully pondered Wang Hao’s words, then sighed softly and nodded, “Indeed, that’s mostly the case.”
“So, you see,” Wang Hao summarized, “It’s exactly because of this fierce competition among yourselves that anyone appearing around Miss Ice Princess is seen with strong intentions. Put yourself in her shoes, would you like it if everyone who approached you did so with an ulterior motive?”
“This…” Fang Wenbin suddenly understood after hearing this, slowly closing his eyes with a bitter smile, “So that’s why. I always wondered why Miss Ice Princess never let anyone get close to her over the years, I couldn’t understand it before, but your words today finally made me realize…”
“Realized it, huh?” Wang Hao smiled, “I’m different from all of you. I know my identity, an ordinary person, neither too good nor too bad. My looks are not outstanding, and my status is just average, but because of this, I have one great advantage—I can be completely honest with her, not having any ulterior motives. Just ordinary friends, chatting and talking, that’s all. So you all, including you and all the descendants of your great family, will never become Miss Ice Princess’s friends, but I can.”
Wang Hao’s words rendered Fang Wenbin speechless.
He stared blankly at Wang Hao, his mouth opening and closing several times, but he couldn’t utter a single word.
After saying this, Wang Hao stood up and said, “Go back, don’t ask me for any information about Miss Ice Princess. I don’t want my relationship with her to be as purposeful as yours is. She has never had friends since she was a child, which is pitiful enough, I don’t want to rub salt into her wounds.”
“Phew…” Deeply exhaling, Fang Wenbin stood up, suddenly bowed deeply to Wang Hao and said, “Now I believe everything you said is true, maybe you really are a good friend of Miss Ice Princess, at least I acknowledge you have the right. Thank you, please take good care of her.”
Hahaha, see that? Trying to compete with me? Come back in a hundred years!
“No problem,” Wang Hao’s eyes crinkled with a smile as he received the bow, “Don’t worry, I promise to complete the mission, hehe.”
“I believe you,” Fang Wenbin smiled, though it must be said his smile was indeed charming, “But let me clarify, my pursuit of her will still continue as usual, that definitely won’t change.”
“That’s none of my business,” Wang Hao shrugged his shoulders, “Well, if there’s nothing else, I’m heading back. Oh,” Wang Hao looked teasingly at Fang Wenbin’s wallet, “You, being such a wealthy young master, can’t just leave empty-handed, oh my, my budget has been tight recently, you see…”
“Understood,” Fang Wenbin shook his head helplessly and chuckled, “Knows how to pluck a feather from the passing goose. Don’t worry, I’ll sponsor your web series with two million, as a token of appreciation for your words just now. As for you, I won’t express anything extra.”
“Well, that’s up to you, I’ve got to get going,” Wang Hao turned and walked away, silently crying two streams of tears inside—Damn it! Why didn’t you say you’d sponsor me with two million, damn!

Hehe, how could such a pure soul like me be so filthy… Those with dirty minds, go face the wall!
