Chapter 161 Noah's Gift
"No more pain, that's good. Next time, find someone else to do this. I've never done it with a girl before," said another voice.
"Find someone else? There's only you. If not you, who should I as to do this?" said Lily.
"The first time might be a little painful. Once you're more skilled, it won't hurt anymore next time."
"Lily, my Lily!"
Zack's eyes immediately turned red when he heard that outside the door.
"You... how could you do that behind my back, at the birthday party! Fine, you can do it once, but you even mentioned a next time!"
He was so angry that his hair was standing on end, his whole body trembled, and he gritted his teeth.
Zack lifted his foot.
Bang!
He kicked the door open.
"Lily, what do you think you're doing?!"
Zack shouted, his eyes bloodshot, scanning the room.
Noah and Lily were both shocked. They hadn't expected Zack to come in at this moment.
"What are you doing?"
Zack saw Noah standing behind Lily in front of the dressing mirror, both of them dressed neatly.
"I asked Noah to zip me up. What did you think we were doing?"
Lily frowned, "Zack, don’t you have any manners? Why did you kick the door open and yell like that?"
Uh...
Zack froze, then immediately reacted and put on a smile.
"Lily, I... I misunderstood you. I thought you and this poor guy were doing that in the room."
"I was just asking him to zip me up. Besides, even if I did do that with him, what's it to you?" Lily snorted, her gaze icy.
Zack's expression darkened, his eyes locked onto Noah.
"Lily, this kid is just your backup boyfriend, someone you randomly found on the street! I didn't expect you to bring him here!"
"He’s not my backup boyfriend, he’s my legitimate boyfriend!" Lily retorted.
"Hehe, I won't argue with you," Zack chuckled, his gaze still fixed on Noah, full of disdain. "Kid, since you’re Lily's legitimate boyfriend, you should at least give her a gift on her birthday! I bought a Marusharati Queen HIMIKO for Lily, what gift are you giving her?
"Since you only have a bicycle, you can probably only buy something for a few dollars from a roadside stall as a birthday gift!"
"Zack, even though Noah doesn't have money, his gift will definitely not be from a roadside stall. Even if it is, I’ll still like it!" Lily spoke up, then turned to Noah and said,
"Darling, show Zack your gift!"
Lily was confident. After all, she had transferred fifty thousand dollars to Noah. Even if Noah’s gift wasn't a luxurious item like Starlight City West, at least it wouldn't be too embarrassing.
"Okay."
Noah nodded and opened the small box, smiling lightly,
"This gift is worth more than ten of your Marusharati Queens put together."
"Huh?"
Both Lily and Zack were stunned, curious to see what was inside the small box.
The box opened, revealing a small ball the size of a thumbnail. It was a dark gray color and looked inconspicuous.
"What is this?"
Zack stared at the ball, unable to recognize it at all.
This thing didn't look like a diamond, nor did it look like gold. If it were dropped on the roadside, no one would even spare a glance at it. It looked like a worthless piece of junk.
"Noah, what is this?"
Lily was also dumbfounded. She had given Noah fifty thousand dollars to buy a more expensive gift, and he had bought this little trinket?
"This is a rare metal!" Noah said lightly.
"A rare metal? What on earth is it? I've never even heard of it!" Zack looked at Noah with disdain on his face,
"Noah, it's Lily's birthday, all the guests are distinguished, and the gifts are all incredibly luxurious. You, a poor guy, are giving her this? This thing isn't even worth a penny! Are you trying to make a fool out of me by saying it's worth more than ten Marusharati Queens?"
Lily also had never heard of a rare metal, but she still said,
"Humph, even if this thing isn't worth a penny, I still like it! I’ll like it as long as Noah gives it to me!"
"Wow, it seems like I overestimated the intelligence of these people."
Noah shook his head helplessly. "They don't even recognize a rare metal, sigh."
Xavier had shipped this rare metal from a foreign research laboratory at great effort.
Originally, they wanted Noah to make a big splash at this birthday party, so he could all the other pursuers' gifts pale in comparison and they would feel ashamed of themselves.
But these people were uneducated and didn’t recognize a rare metal!
How could they make a show?
Rare metals were the most expensive substances in the world, worth two billion for just one gram!
Money can't buy them because they are artificially synthesized metals that require a great cost to produce.
This rare metal the size of a fingernail was about four grams, worth about ten billion!
How could a ten billion birthday gift not make a splash?
But Noah didn't think that this underachiever Zack would not recognize a rare metal!
"Kid, who are you trying to fool with this piece of crap? You could have bought a rose as a gift! But instead, you bought this thing, hahaha!"
Zack finally couldn't help it and burst into laughter, clutching his stomach, almost laughing his guts out.
"I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore, since you want to be Lily's boyfriend, everyone can see the gift you gave her!"
Saying that, he left the room and shouted to everyone outside
"Everyone, come and see Lily's boyfriend's gift for Lily! After seeing it, you’ll definitely laugh your ass off!"
"Everyone, come and see!"
When the people in the lobby heard this, they were all curious.
When Lily and Noah went upstairs, they were still wondering if Noah was an important man.
Now, when they heard that Noah had given her a gift, everyone immediately rushed upstairs, wanting to see it.
Before long, the entire room was crowded and packed.
"What is this thing?"
"Noah said it's a rare metal, what is a rare metal?"
"Could it be sheep dung?"
"It’s fingernail-sized thing, how much is it worth?"
Everyone’s gazes were focused on the rare metal inside the small box, with puzzled expressions on their faces.
"This kid is just looking for attention!"
Someone looked at Noah.
"Yes, Joshua just said he's from the lower class, maybe he deliberately did this funny thing to attract our attention?"
"What do you mean attracting our attention? This is embarrassing, he’s doing this in front of all the guests and it’s humiliating for Lily, and the Benson family! Who would give a gift like this?"
People pointed at Noah and gossiped about him, their gazes filled with mockery and disdain.
Lily also couldn't hold up, she hadn't expected Noah to cause such a commotion with his gift. This was embarrassing, she was being embarrassed in front of everyone.
"haha, as long as it's a gift from Noah, I like it! What do you guys care about its value?" Lily sneered.
