Chapter 140 Balance: 3.5 million

Yu Sitong had originally intended to speak up for Ye Bufan, but upon seeing the phone in Ouyang Duo’s hand, she suddenly froze, then stepped forward and said, “Cousin, lend me your phone for a look.”

“What’s so good about this old-fashioned phone? If you like it, I’ll buy you one tomorrow, cousin.”

Ouyang Duo said, tossing the phone over. Yu Sitong caught it, her face filled with pleasant surprise.

“Cousin, are you serious? You’ll really get me the same model of phone?”

Ouyang Duo said, “Of course, it’s true. With so many people here, how could I lie? Your cousin always keeps his word, unlike another cousin who’s so stingy.”

After speaking, he disdainfully glanced at Ye Bufan.

Ouyang Cheng followed up, saying, “That’s right, your Third Uncle vouches for it. Even if your cousin doesn’t buy it, I’ll buy one for you. It’s only right for a cousin to give a gift to his younger cousin.”

Yu Sitong fiddled with the phone in her hand, saying playfully, “That’s great, Third Uncle, Cousin! Everyone heard it, so don’t go back on your word then.”

Ouyang Fei said, “Child, how can you talk like that? Isn’t that insulting your Third Uncle and cousin? They’ll definitely give you such a phone.”

Ouyang Shan said, “Alright, let’s first check the call credit balance to confirm if it was given with 300 or 500.”

Ouyang Duo took the phone back from Yu Sitong, first dialed the call credit inquiry number, then pressed the speaker button. “Everyone listen carefully, so no one says I’m reneging if I lose!”

Ouyang De and the others all wore playful expressions, waiting to see how Ye Bufan would embarrass himself.

Following the electronic voice prompt, when Ouyang Duo pressed the inquiry button, the phone said, “The current call credit balance is 3.5 million!”

“Did you hear that? It’s 350 yuan! Cousin, it seems we guessed wrong. It’s neither 300 yuan nor 500 yuan, it’s 350 yuan…”

He was speaking volubly when Yu Sitong said, “Cousin, you misheard. It just reported 3.5 million.”

Ouyang Duo shook his head and said, “Impossible, how is that possible? Whose call credit could be 3.5 million? Isn’t that a joke?”

“Exactly, how could the call credit balance be 3.5 million? You must have misheard…”

“How could such an old-fashioned phone have 3.5 million in call credit? Xiaotong, you’re not old, but why are your ears not working well?”

Everyone had been in a playful mood just now, so no one paid attention to the unit after 350, not even Ouyang Lan.

It was the same for her, and she naturally assumed the balance was 350 yuan.

“Impossible, my ears are fine! I heard it clearly, it was 3.5 million!” Yu Sitong said, taking the phone and pressing the inquiry button again.

“Girl, use your brain, alright? How could the call credit balance be 3.5 million…”

Ouyang Duo was speaking when he clearly heard the prompt from the phone, “Your current call credit balance is 3.5 million.”

At this, everyone was dumbfounded, stunned speechless. How was this possible? How could the call credit balance be 3.5 million?

Ouyang Duo couldn’t believe his ears. He snatched the phone and checked three more times, but each time the result was 3.5 million.

“This is impossible; the electronic System must be broken.”

Saying this, he called the manual System again to re-inquire about the call credit. Although the customer service Young Miss on the other end was momentarily stunned, she still affirmed, “Sir, your call credit balance is indeed 3.5 million!”

Ouyang Duo exclaimed, “How is that possible? Who would deposit 3.5 million into phone credit?”

The customer service Young Miss politely said, “Sir, I checked the records and confirmed that 3.5 million was just deposited the day before yesterday!”

At this, everyone present was dumbfounded. The room fell silent. No one had expected Ouyang Lan’s phone to have so much money deposited.

What is the concept of 3.5 million? It’s enough to buy a super luxury sports car, and in a county town like Wufeng County, it could completely buy 10 three-bedroom, one-living-room apartments.

After a moment of silence, Ouyang Fei said sourly, “Big Sister, you really are a rich person now, even topping up so much on your phone credit.”

Ouyang Lan recovered from her shock and said to Ye Bufan, “Xiaofan, didn’t you say this phone cost 350 yuan?”

Ye Bufan calmly said, “Mom, I only said 350, but I didn’t say 350 yuan. This phone was bought for 3.5 million.”

Ouyang Duo shouted, “Ye Bufan, are you out of your mind? You spent 3.5 million on call credit just for this old-fashioned phone?”

Ye Bufan said, “You’re mistaken. Call credit is call credit, and the phone is the phone.

This phone itself costs 3.5 million, plus the 3.5 million in call credit, its current value is 7 million. So hold it steady; don’t break it, or you won’t be able to afford to compensate me.”

“What? 7 million?”

Ouyang Duo’s hand trembled in fear, and he almost dropped the phone. Then he said, “Stop trying to fool people.

Do you think everyone is a fool? How could such an old-fashioned phone be worth 3.5 million?”

“Cousin, this phone really is worth that much money.”

Yu Sitong stepped forward and took the phone, saying earnestly, “This isn’t an ordinary old-fashioned phone; this is a Vertu phone, a luxury item among phones, the most expensive phone brand in the world.

In terms of brand, Apple is several streets behind; it simply can’t compare!

This phone is a Vertu private custom model, created by the world’s top 8 designers working together, with a total of 388 components, entirely handmade, taking half a year.

The phone keyboard is paved with rubies, and the buttons are all top-grade sapphires, which is why it’s worth this price.”

If it weren’t for the call credit inquiry just now, the people present probably wouldn’t have believed that this phone was worth so much money. But at this moment, everyone believed it. No one had expected the seemingly ordinary, broken phone to be incredibly expensive beyond imagination.

Ouyang Fei said, “Xiaotong, how do you know so much?”

Yu Sitong said, “My deskmate’s family runs a phone mall, and she’s also a phone enthusiast. This phone was featured in a phone magazine, and she introduced it to me, so I remember it especially clearly.

Just now, I thought Auntie’s phone looked somewhat similar, and now I’m sure it’s this exact phone, a unique custom model in the world.

Back then, we even discussed what kind of wealthy magnate would spend such a huge sum to customize this kind of phone. Now I know the magnate is Cousin Xiaofan!”

She said, stepping forward and pulling Ye Bufan, “Cousin Xiaofan, you’re truly amazing, to be willing to let Auntie use such an expensive phone.”

Ye Bufan smiled: “A biological son buys an Apple phone, but someone not a biological son like me naturally has to buy something more expensive!”

At this, the faces of the Ouyang Family members present were burning, especially Ouyang Cheng and Ouyang Duo, the father and son. Just now, they had heavily mocked Ye Bufan, laughing gleefully, but now they had slapped their own faces soundly.

Ouyang Cheng quietly tucked his phone back into his pocket. His 10,000-plus Apple phone couldn’t even compare to one of the other phone’s buttons, so how could he possibly bring it out?

Originally, they wanted to mock others, but in the end, they became the joke themselves.

Yu Sitong adored the phone in her hand. Women have an innate love for jewels, and a young girl like her was no exception.

Ye Bufan said, “Do you like it?”
