Chapter 470 - Poverty Restricts Your Imagination
Recently, the Shen Corporation had been embroiled in a lawsuit and Gu Meifeng"s savings had gone down the drain. She was in a bad mood.
Gu Xuexue accompanied her to shop, eat, and do beauty treatments.
Of course.
Gu Xuexue was not that filial. She had her own agenda.
"Mommy, did you know? Uncle Enlong bought a company for Gu Yuanyuan. It makes jade jewelry that is especially beautiful. She"s showing off in front of me every day, saying that she"s the company"s executive director. In the future, she"ll directly give herself dividends every month. The pocket money in our sisters" hands is all trash in her eyes.. Mommy, can you tell Uncle to let me try joining the company too?"
Gu Xuexue was so jealous!
She had little pocket money and could not dress up beautifully to attract Gong Jue"s attention.
What if they met again someday? How could she dress so ordinarily?
Gu Meifeng said absent-mindedly, "Mommy knows about that company. It"s called Qing Yuxuan, right? Mommy has shares in it too. Mommy will let your uncle know when the time comes."
"Thank you, Mommy! Mommy treats me the best!" Gu Xuexue was elated. "Mommy, let"s go to the revolving restaurant for dinner tonight, okay? I was chosen to partic.i.p.ate in the school tournament in medical school and was given an allowance. Can I be filial to you?"
Eating was a small sum of money. Joining Qingyu Xuan to earn money was big money!
You must lose a fly to catch a trout.
Gu Meifeng was pleased. "Xuexue is still the filial one."
However, they were stopped before they reached the revolving restaurant.
"I"m sorry, ladies. Our restaurant has been booked today. We aren"t receiving outsiders," the waiter explained politely.
"Who"s so extravagant?" Gu Xuexue clicked her tongue in envy.
"Hmph, that"s impossible." Gu Meifeng pouted.
The rotating restaurant of the Empire State Building was known to be expensive and luxurious.
Even a reservation costs tens of thousands.
If someone booked the entire place… how much money would it cost?
She kept looking inside.
She felt like the waiter was lying to her.
The waiter thought to himself, "Madam, poverty has really limited your imagination."
Why do you think others can"t do it just because you can"t?
The man inside could even enjoy eating skewers with his girlfriend, let alone book the entire place. Can you imagine that?
However, he still gave them a perfunctory reply. "Yes, yes, we"re having VIPS. We can"t reveal their ident.i.ties due to privacy…"
Before she could finish her sentence, Gu Xuexue screamed in disbelief. "Mommy, look, it"s that little b.i.t.c.h Gu Qiqi!"
Through the half-closed door, one could vaguely see that the girl sitting by the window with a smile on her face and chatting with the man opposite her was Gu Qiqi!
The bright chandelier shone brightly on Gu Qiqi"s forehead, making her smile even more adorable.
It was a smile that only a woman who was loved by others would have.
However, the man"s back was blocked and she could not see him clearly!
Gu Xuexue was extremely jealous.
Why couldn"t she go to such a high-cla.s.s place to eat while Gu Qiqi had booked the entire restaurant!
Was Gu Qiqi dating another old man?
Anyway, she refused to believe that the man inside was Gong Jue.
"Mommy, Gu Qiqi is so lucky! Recently, she has been doing whatever she wants in school. She even dared to offend the Bai family. Even the director of the Discipline Department can"t do anything to her. I heard that she got first place in the Medicine College"s exam this afternoon… Boohoo… Mommy, why is she so proud of herself when we are having such a hard time?"
Gu Meifeng hugged her daughter as the flames in her eyes flared up. "Hmph, first place? I"ll make sure she doesn"t get first place!"
