This Bad Luck is Awesome!

Chapter 164: Chapter 122: To Be a Man, Be Like Chen Mo

’Looks like it’s about to be The Fast and the Furious.’

It was a race to see who would get to the office first.

Thanks to the intel from Chen Mo, it was Pan Kejia’s wicked big mouse of a car that pulled into the Xihe underground garage first.

She glanced around, and upon seeing no sign of Xia Shiqing’s car, she headed upstairs in high spirits.

Once she got to her desk, she sat down and deliberately began to fiddle with the necklace at her chest with her delicate hands.

At first, her coworkers didn’t notice, but as Pan Kejia kept toying with the necklace with her slender fingers, she naturally drew their attention.

"Kejia, did you get a new necklace?"

"Changing up your style? I see you’re wearing gold jewelry now."

"Of course she is. The price of gold is over 1,000 yuan per gram now."

"That necklace is gorgeous! Where did you buy it?"

"The butterfly pendant is so pretty. I want to buy the same one."

Her female colleagues all gathered around Pan Kejia, buzzing with discussion.

"Mhm, my boyfriend gave it to me. I didn’t even want it, but he insisted on putting it on for me."

"And this bracelet, too. He also gave it to me. He just loves me so much, what can I do?"

Pan Kejia lifted her fair wrist, showing off the matching bracelet.

"It’s a matching set! The necklace and bracelet have the same design."

"Kejia, when did you get a boyfriend?"

"Yeah, didn’t you say some scumbag was chasing you before?"

"Goes to show, the chances of a beauty staying single are slim. Both Minister Xia and you have boyfriends now."

"The guys at the office are going to have their hearts broken all over again."

Her female colleagues were shocked to hear Pan Kejia admit she had a boyfriend.

"Ugh, it’s that scumbag from before. I saw how hopelessly in love with me he was, so I just agreed to be with him," Pan Kejia said with a casual wave of her hand.

Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances.

’That works?’

’Isn’t that a little... rash?’

CLICK-CLACK-CLACK...

Just then, the sound of high heels tapping on the floor approached.

Everyone turned toward the sound and saw Xia Shiqing arriving at the office.

"Minister Xia, good morning!"

Her colleagues greeted Xia Shiqing.

"Morning."

Xia Shiqing glanced at everyone and gave a slight nod.

She walked straight to her office, and after she left, her colleagues huddled together again.

"Did I just see that Minister Xia’s necklace is exactly the same as Kejia’s?"

"I saw it too. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me."

"I think her bracelet is the same model, too."

"Is this, like, the hottest style this year or something? The office’s two great beauties are both wearing it."

"I’m going to buy one after work!"

"Minister Xia’s wasn’t a gift from Chen Mo, was it?"

"Probably."

"Kejia’s was from her boyfriend, and Minister Xia’s was from her boyfriend, too. Do all men have this kind of taste now?"

"How else would they be able to win over Minister Xia and Kejia?"

The female colleagues had noticed the necklace and bracelet on Xia Shiqing and were now murmuring amongst themselves.

Pan Kejia had been listening with relish. She had finally managed to show off before Xia Shiqing.

’Wearing the same thing isn’t the disaster. Being the last one to show it off is.’

Last time, she had been the late one.

This time, it was Xia Shiqing.

But her heart skipped a beat when she heard a colleague suddenly mention winning over "Minister Xia and Kejia."

’Could it be that someone had found out about Chen Mo winning over both her and Xia Shiqing?’

But seeing the perfectly normal expression on her colleague’s face, she instantly understood.

The person meant that *her* boyfriend won *her* over, and Chen Mo won Xia Shiqing over.

She had misinterpreted it as one person winning over both her and Xia Shiqing at the same time.

’Although... that is indeed the case, and such a person does exist.’

Meanwhile, Zheng Xiaoxiao watched Pan Kejia, who was surrounded by their colleagues.

Her thoughts then turned to Xia Shiqing, who had just arrived.

She thought about the identical necklaces and bracelets the two of them wore.

’One was a gift from Chen Mo, the other from a "boyfriend."’

’Could it be possible that they were actually gifts from the same person?’

She had long suspected that Pan Kejia and Chen Mo’s relationship was unusual.

Especially after both Xia Shiqing and Pan Kejia had been gifted identical bags.

Now, after seeing their identical bags and jewelry, she was basically certain.

’It must be nice to be rich,’ she couldn’t help but sigh to herself.

’Xia Shiqing and Pan Kejia—weren’t they both goddesses in the eyes of the men in the finance world?’

’But for a rich man like Chen Mo, even goddesses in everyone’s eyes...’

’...could be won over together.’

An idea suddenly occurred to her.

’If I were reborn as a man in my next life, I’d have to live as freely as Chen Mo to make my life worthwhile.’

’To be born a man is to be like Chen Mo.’
