(2 updates) As soon as he heard that Ye Haochuan bought a domestically-made car worth just tens of thousands, he immediately felt good about himself.

“I really should thank my old classmate for that.” Ye Haochuan revealed a strange smile on his face and sat in the back seat with Zhu Qingshuang.

“Why so formal with me?!” Gao Lei said, with an unmistakable pride on his face.

He glanced at Zhu Qingshuang through the rearview mirror, his eyes exuding a burning desire.

He had not expected to bump into such a beauty this time.

It seemed like his luck was really in!

As Gao Lei drove the car, he turned to Ye Haochuan and said, “Ye Haochuan, we haven’t seen each other since high school graduation, right?

What have you been up to after that?

Did you go to college?”

That was Gao Lei’s tactic for picking up girls.

Judging by Ye Haochuan’s attire, he thought that his old classmate must be doing poorly, and later he’d just need to use Ye Haochuan to elevate his own status.

He believed that with his own conditions, Zhu Qingshuang would surely be moved!

“I studied at a Traditional Chinese Medicine college, and now I’m just scraping by working at a university clinic.” Ye Haochuan knew this guy’s thinking all too well but still played along with a smile.

Hearing Shang Liu’s words, Gao Lei’s face showed a trace of disdain, and with a slightly contemptuous tone, he said, “A college of Traditional Chinese Medicine, huh?

It’s not bad that you can find a job these days.

Can you make a few thousand a month?”

“Just scraping by for a living,” Ye Haochuan said, scratching his head.

To Gao Lei, this action seemed somewhat embarrassed.

With a derisive smile on his face, he said, “After high school, I went straight to the Imperial Capital.

I graduated from the Computer Science department of Imperial Capital University.

Now, my annual salary barely reaches over six million.”

Over six million.

That’s about half a million a month.

In terms of income, even in the Imperial Capital, that is considered quite good.

Having said that, Gao Lei’s mouth curled up, and he unconsciously glanced at the two people in the rearview mirror.

He wanted to see just how surprised Ye Haochuan and Zhu Qingshuang would be once they learned about his income.

However, to Gao Lei’s disappointment, Ye Haochuan’s face still had a faint smile, as if he didn’t know at all what six million meant, and Zhu Qingshuang was even more expressionless, her delicate face covered with frost.

With a twitch of his mouth, Gao Lei said somewhat stubbornly, “Although I earn over six million a year, this amount is still far from enough in the Imperial Capital.

Just a few months ago, I just bought an apartment, just over a hundred square meters, and it cost me more than a year’s income!”

Having said this, Gao Lei sighed and said casually, “The cost of buying a house is really high nowadays.

By the way, Ye Haochuan, have you bought a house?”

“I did, though I expect it will be quite cramped, I’ve decided to change to a bigger one later on,” Ye Haochuan chuckled as he spoke.

“The prices of houses are rising nationwide, I would advise you to take out a mortgage and buy a bigger house in one go,” Gao Lei said.

He thought Ye Haochuan must have bought a tiny little house upon hearing that.

“Hmm, your suggestion is very good.” Ye Haochuan nodded earnestly.

Seeing Ye Haochuan keep sparring with the other party, Zhu Qingshuang was simply at a loss for words.

With this man’s ability, wasn’t it easy to earn money?

Yet he insisted on pretending to be poor, which was really puzzling!

Gao Lei was also feeling a bit gloomy inside.

Things were going as he had expected, and Ye Haochuan was nowhere near his own level.

Logically speaking, after showing off like this, Zhu Qingshuang had no reason to keep such a cold demeanor.

Forget it, once they get to Wangfujing, they will know what true high-class elegance is!

With this thought, Gao Lei stopped talking and just quietly drove the car.

More than an hour later, the three arrived at a restaurant in Wangfujing.

Gao Lei seemed to come here often and was very familiar with the surroundings.

Throwing the car keys to the parking valet, Gao Lei directly led Ye Haochuan and the others into the restaurant.

“This restaurant is called Yixiang Garden, with a minimum spend of five hundred thousand per meal.

I come here to eat once every week,” Gao Lei said with a laugh, leading the two in as if he owned the place.

In fact, given Gao Lei’s financial resources, he wouldn’t normally choose such a place to dine.

The reason he was so familiar with it was merely because he had accompanied his current boss there a few times to entertain clients.

Moreover, Yixiang Garden didn’t actually have a minimum spend requirement.

It was just that every dish here was very expensive, so even the simplest meal would cost over a hundred thousand, the epitome of luxury!

“Not bad, not bad,” Ye Haochuan surveyed the surrounding environment and let out words of admiration.

As expected of an upscale restaurant in Wangfujing of the Imperial Capital, Yixiang Garden was decorated with an ancient charm, reminiscent of the grand residences of ancient officials, complete with pavilions, lofts, and eye-pleasing flowers and potted plants everywhere.

After traversing a long, wooden corridor, the three of them finally entered the true Yixiang Garden.

At the entrance stood two rows of beautiful women dressed in bright red cheongsams, adorned with exquisite embroidery of Phoenix patterns!

“Welcome,” as soon as they saw Ye Haochuan and his companions, the two rows of beauties bent their slender waists in unison, giving a charming curtsy with smiles that were as pleasant as springtime.

The buttons on the bodices of these women were not all fastened, and as they bent down, swathes of smooth, white skin were exposed.

The quality is pretty high indeed!

Ye Haochuan praised, noting that the beauties lined up before him, whether in terms of appearance, figure, or temperament, were all quite splendid.

Yixiang Garden truly did not disappoint!

Turning to look at Gao Lei, he had already turned into a leering pig, with his gaze fixed on the Saintess Peaks of the beauties, his drool nearly spilling out.

Despite having been here several times, each time at the entrance, Gao Lei couldn’t help but take a few extra glances.

After several seconds, he suddenly snapped out of it and hastily said, “Let’s go inside.”

Following behind Gao Lei, Ye Haochuan and Zhu Qingshuang also walked inside.

Since they didn’t make a reservation and it was evening, all of Yixiang Garden’s private rooms were booked, and only a few tables were left in the main hall.

“I’m really sorry, I was planning to treat you to a good meal, but there are no private rooms left,” Gao Lei said apologetically to Zhu Qingshuang.

To have such a stunning beauty dine in the main hall seemed somewhat beneath her, and what worried Gao Lei even more was that the busy hall had too many prying eyes, and he feared others might set their sights on Zhu Qingshuang.

Zhu Qingshuang didn’t speak, but Ye Haochuan preempted, “It’s okay, the main hall is fine.”

He was ravenous and immediately found a vacant spot to sit down, then picked up the menu in front of him.

Seeing the situation, Gao Lei didn’t say anything more.

He sat down opposite Ye Haochuan, intentionally choosing the innermost seat, then patted the spot next to him and said to Zhu Qingshuang, “Qingshuang, sit here.”

Gao Lei had finally learned Zhu Qingshuang’s name after beating around the bush on the way there.

However, Zhu Qingshuang didn’t pay him any mind and sat down beside Ye Haochuan.

“You’re crowding me,” Ye Haochuan said with dissatisfaction, glancing at her and shifting his hips inward before going back to scanning the menu.

Zhu Qingshuang’s expression remained unchanged, still cold as ever, while Gao Lei wore a dejected Spartan-like face, feeling quite frustrated.

Seeing Ye Haochuan flipping through the menu, Gao Lei waved his hand grandly, “You might not have had the chance to eat these things usually, but today I’m treating, so order whatever you want!”

“Then thanks a lot, old classmate!” Ye Haochuan ‘shyly’ smiled, then without any reservations, went on to hectically order, and by his standards, he only chose the most expensive ones – whichever was pricier, that’s what he picked!
