An An is now a little over three years old and is attending the kindergarten's small class. Li Xia decided that since she had received the system's task to become someone's mother, she should fulfill her responsibilities. So Li Xia sent An An to kindergarten early the next morning.
At the kindergarten gate, An An took Li Xia's hand and shouted, "Mom." Then she pouted her little lips.
Seeing this, Li Xia squatted down and let the little guy kiss her on the face. After giving her mother a farewell kiss, the little guy ran excitedly to the teacher waiting at the door with his schoolbag on his back.
The teacher greeted Li Xia and walked in with An An. Watching An An's back disappear completely, Li Xia turned around and couldn't help but sigh that the original owner had taught An An very well.
Although An An lacked the love of his father since childhood, he was still lively and sensible, and he was cute. She couldn't help but fall in love with this little child after only two days of spending time with An An.
Thinking that An An would end up with such a miserable outcome when she grew up, Li Xia decided that as long as she was there, she would never let this happen.
Li Xia waved for a taxi, got in the car and went directly to the original owner's company.
The kindergarten's arrival time in the morning was 8:30, and the original owner's company's working time was 9:00, so she arrived there just in time after sending An An off.
Halfway through the taxi journey, Li Xia suddenly changed his mind.
She wasn't going to work, so why should she be there on time
Besides, a company has various meetings in the morning. If she were to wait for the leaders to finish their work, it would probably be noon already.
She doesn't have that much time to wait.
"Master, I'll go to Boyue Shopping Mall instead."
With billions of funds in hand, how could she go to the company in such a shameful state? She knew that everyone was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
Besides, how could the original owner, who is so beautiful, not have luxury goods
"Girl, are you going shopping? The mall doesn't open until ten o'clock. It's probably a little early to go now." The driver gave a friendly reminder.
"Then let's go to a breakfast restaurant instead."
"Which one?" asked the driver.
"Anything is fine, as long as it's a very high-end one."
The original owner was a working class person and didn't know much about high-end restaurants, so Li Xia had no idea about them. But she knew that taxi drivers in a city must be the most familiar with the names of various restaurants.
Upon hearing this, the master turned around and glanced at Li Xia, then changed the subject and said, "Girl, the most expensive breakfast restaurant is probably He Ming Ju. I heard that a breakfast there costs nearly four figures. Do you want to go there?"
A breakfast costs four figures. When Li Xia heard the price, he said, "Let's go here."
Li Xia got on the bus at the entrance of an ordinary kindergarten. Although she was pretty, her clothes were not branded, so the driver kindly reminded her, "This place is very expensive. The average cost per person is probably at least 5,000 or 6,000 yuan."
Li Xia smiled and said, "Thank you, Master. I know. Let's go here."
He Ming Ju is a Cantonese-style tea restaurant located next to the Boyue Shopping Mall, in the most prosperous area of the imperial capital. Its decoration style is very distinctive, perfectly displaying the Chinese style.
She chose a seat by the window and sat down. Immediately, a well-dressed waiter handed her the menu. She flipped through the pictures on the menu and thought that every dim sum item looked delicious. It was difficult to choose for a moment, so she asked, "What are your signature dishes? Do you have any recommendations?"
The waitress gave a typical smile and turned to a certain page on the menu.
The prices of ordinary meals are 499, 599, and 699, all of which are less than a thousand, but none of the signature dishes are priced below 1000.
Li Xia sighed inwardly that rich people are so extravagant.
For an ordinary person, spending twenty or thirty yuan on breakfast is considered a lot, and many people can just spend a few yuan.
Seeing that Li Xia hadn't made a decision for a long time, the waitress, who was used to seeing wealthy customers, could tell the man's status from his clothes. She thought that Li Xia thought the price was too high, so she said, "Not only is our signature breakfast delicious, but the other dishes are also good. Why don't you try something else?"
But Li Xia shook her head and said, "No, I want this whole page of signs."
There were ten dishes on the page, and the total cost was nearly 20,000 yuan. The waitress was slightly surprised and couldn't believe her ears, but her professional ethics didn't let her ask the customer directly. Instead, she cleverly confirmed in disguise: "Miss, there are ten dishes on this page. How many ladies are there? I'm afraid the portion is too much for one person."
"It's just me. I just thought the pictures looked delicious, so I wanted to try them."
"Well, please wait a moment, miss."
The waitress immediately went back to the front desk to print the receipt. The total amount of the ten dishes was 18,789 RMB. Although the main consumer group of this restaurant is wealthy people, it is a breakfast restaurant after all, and not many people can spend more than 10,000 RMB.
She couldn't help but sigh to her colleagues: "It's great to be rich. A meal costs 20,000 yuan."
"Who is it?"
The waitress made a gesture to her colleague, who followed her gaze and couldn't help but frown. Then he looked back at the bill and said, "Don't be a freeloader."
"No way!"
The colleague said, "This woman's outfit is worth no more than 2,000 yuan. The most expensive thing is her bag, a discounted MK model, which costs 1,300 yuan. So, ask them not to serve the food first. Take the bill and the POS machine and let her pay first."
The restaurant has strict rules and employees are required to pay compensation for any mistakes. This meal cost her several months' salary.
The waitress quickly listened to her colleague and went over with the POS machine.
Many restaurants require payment after the dishes are served, so I didn't notice anything strange. I swiped my card and signed, everything went smoothly.
But the moment the receipt came out of the POS machine, she heard a prompt sound in her mind.
"Ding—The value of showing off wealth has increased by 5%. The current value of showing off wealth is 6%."
She pulled up the system page. There was no progress in the main quest yet, but the side quest had already reached 6%. She didn't expect that the way to complete the side quest was just as the system said, just spend money.
Ten breakfast dishes were served one by one. When Li Xia took the first bite, she felt that they were simply the most delicious food in the world.
Spending money and eating delicious food can make people feel better. Li Xia ate a small part of each breakfast. After finishing her meal, she saw that it was time for the mall to open, so she prepared to leave in a happy mood.
But what a coincidence, I ran into Zhang Xinru at the door. Zhang Xinru was about to leave with her arm around a woman.
Zhang Xinru found it incredible that she could meet Xu Zhiyu in such a restaurant. Thinking back to how she was humiliated by Xu Zhiyu in the hospital yesterday, she felt so angry that her teeth were itching.
Li Xia originally planned to pretend that she didn't see it. Now was not the time to confront Zhang Xinru. After all, the other party had power behind her, while she only had money. Everything needed to be considered carefully.
But by chance, Zhang Xinru called her.
"Xu Zhiyu, I didn't expect to see you here."
Zhang Xinru's tone was full of surprise and mockery. Li Xia heard the meaning and smiled slightly: "Yeah, I didn't expect that you would appear in such a good restaurant. I don't want to come here again."
Although Li Xia was smiling, the implication of her words was obvious. She was saying that Zhang Xinru was a bad apple.
Zhang Xinru was not stupid, so she naturally heard it. She was so angry that she wanted to slap Xu Zhiyu twice. But everyone in the restaurant knew that she was Miss Zhang and Mrs. He, a well-known socialite and lady. Using violence in public would obviously destroy her image.
She could only suppress her emotions and said, "Ms. Xu is really willing to spend money. She is willing to spend a month's salary on a breakfast. If I were you, I would rather use this money to buy a bag. How dare you bring out such a small brand."
Zhang Xinru's voice was quite loud, attracting the attention of everyone around. Everyone looked at Li Xia and were shocked unconsciously.
The average cost per person in this restaurant is 7,000 to 8,000 yuan. If Li Xia's salary is only at this level, how could she possibly come here to consume, unless she... But she is indeed beautiful.
Zhang Xinru is a flower in a greenhouse. She has never experienced any setbacks and is not as good as Li Xia in hiding her emotions.
Li Xia saw through Zhang Xinru's repressed anger, and she said with a half-smile: "Mrs. He, what you said is right. Do rich people have to use material things to show that they are rich? Look back at the guests sitting in the restaurant. Is everyone wearing a big brand?"
Zhang Xinru laughed out loud when she heard the person in front of her claim to be rich. She said, "Xu Zhiyu, you are crazy about being rich. How dare you boast that you are rich?"
"You don't believe it?" Li Xia asked back.
In order to get their son back, the He family had already sent people to investigate Xu Zhiyu's background thoroughly.
Xu Zhiyu is from another place. Her parents have been middle school teachers all their lives. Their family is very ordinary.
Zhang Xinru said, "Don't try to be so arrogant. You might as well believe in that thing. If you agree, I promise to make you a truly rich man."
After saying that, Zhang Xinru took her best friend's arm and was about to leave, but she saw Li Xia waving at the waiter, and then the waitress came trotting over.
"Miss, do you need any help?"
Zhang Xinru stopped when she saw Xu Zhiyu's actions, wanting to see what tricks this woman would play.
But after clearly hearing what Xu Zhiyu said to the waiter, she was completely stunned.
Xu Zhiyu must be crazy!
