Shi Lei woke up early at 10am, called for a taxi and went to Sun Yiyi’s place.
Shi Lei thought that they will be socialising with a bunch of super rich fuerdai, his clothing would somewhat be fine, but Sun Yiyi’s was too plain.
Plus, Shi Lei was certain that buying things for Sun Yiyi would be included within the quota. He had about 20,000 yuan left, which should be enough for buying a new set of clothes for Sun Yiyi.
Because he told Sun Yiyi that he will pick her up in the morning, she woke up early and made breakfast for Shi Lei.
Shi Lei greeted Sun Yiyi’s mother and she seemed fine and joined them for breakfast.
The car service he rented was for half a day, so the car was still waiting outside after they finished breakfast. Shi Lei took Sun Yiyi to De Ji plaza, which was the place where he bought the Alienware laptops.
When he pulled her into a branded shop, she was horrified, as if her feet was rooted to the floor, she didn’t dare to walk in further.
“That’s going to cost so much! No!” She said to Shi Lei.
Shi Lei ruffled her hair and said: “My friend is a super rich fuerdai, all the friends he brought will be as rich as him. If you dress like this, aren’t you losing face for my friend? Look at me, all of these are Armani, but it’s not as expensive as what you think!”
After a while, Sun Yiyi finally went in unwillingly. It was still early and the employee was droopy. But when she saw Shi Lei bringing in a beauty, her eyes shone.
Those employees had rather good taste. They saw Shi Lei’s clothes and immediately knew what brand it was. The guy was handsome, and the girl was beautiful, they were even more pa.s.sionate. But inevitably, they thought: another young master had fallen for a Cinderella. After a while, Shi Lei chose a long dress and a small coat for Sun Yiyi. Together, it was a little over 20,000 yuan, so he only had 3,000 or 4,000 yuan left, and it would be gone after a few meals. Sun Yiyi was even more terrified after she saw the price tag. It was so expensive yet Shi Lei spent as if it wasn’t his money. Sun Yiyi originally thought that after today, she would come back and refund it since it should be an option for these branded shops. However, the employees were too fast with their actions. As soon as Shi Lei said she’ll just wear it, the employee immediately cut off all price tags and Sun Yiyi could no longer refund it.
But since they bought it already, she could only leave with it. She walked very awkwardly, as if she didn’t know how to walk anymore.
She was scared to wrinkle the clothes because it cost 20,000 yuan. To this, Shi Lei was as helpless a month ago, he was in the same situation as Sun Yiyi, but not as bad as Sun Yiyi. Although the Black Card was constantly threatening his life, but it also provided him with an extremely materialistic life which other people may never experience in their whole life.
Due to Sun Yiyi’s unwillingness to work with Shi Lei and wasted some time on buying clothes, they were still a bit late when they arrived at Qing Long mountain despite that they rushed on the way there.
After they got off the car, not to mention Shi Lei and Sun Yiyi, even the driver of the taxi was surprised.
Although his car was the luxurious type for online taxis, but it was only about 600,000 yuan and didn’t really count as luxurious. Compared to those cars before his, it was absolutely nothing compared to them.
When Shi Lei came out of the car whilst holding Sun Yiyi’s hand, a young lad about 20 years old greeted them with a bright smile and said: “Shi Shao, you are finally here! We waited so long!” The online taxi driver thought, if you are rich, why did you call for my car? If he was friends with those people, he would be of the same level as them. This type of people, they didn’t only have their own cars, but they have drivers too.
Shi Lei was very surprised too. He didn’t expect to be recognised as soon as he arrived. If they greeted him like this, how do they forget this after? The Black Card’s mystery increased even more in Shi Lei’s eyes.
Although, Sun Yiyi wasn’t as surprised. He thought that this young man was Shi Lei’s friend, and the only reason why he addressed Shi Lei as Shi Shao was to make him look good.
Shi Lei didn’t know how to address him, so he just bowed slightly and said: “Sorry, sorry. There was some traffic, sorry for the wait.”
Then, he turned around, paid the driver, and said: “Ok, thank you, I’ll end the rental here.”
The driver accepted the money in silence but secretly thought, the internet said that all fuerdai are arrogant and ignorant, but those are probably not the really wealthy ones. Look at these people, they are the real millionaires with good manners and they were even polite to a civilian like him.
A group of people surrounded him. That young man said: “This is Shi Lei, son of the family Shi, the one I told you guys about. He organised the event today and apparently he’ll show us something fun!” Shi Lei scanned them. There were only about ten people and were the owners of the supercars. The eldest in the group was not older than 30 years of age, the youngest was about the same age as Shi Lei.
These people weren’t distant to each other. Socialising with them was normal since they were kids. As long as they are in the same circle, they were no strangers to each other. When they were being introduced by someone in the same circle, as emphasised as ‘Shi Shao’, his ident.i.ty won’t be any lower than them. So, they all greeted Shi Lei and gave him their names.
To these people, any t.i.tles are all useless. The real valuable thing is their name. Plus, even if these people were meeting each other for the first time, they would not exchange their phone numbers like ordinary people. If they wanted to, they could easily find each other and come in contact with them. This saved Shi Lei a lot of trouble because if they exchanged any contact number, even if it was only WeChat, it would make a difference in this one day millionaire life.
“Shi Shao, Wei Shao, what’s the fun? Give us some hints.”
Someone suggested in a joking way and he was supported by many people. Shi Lei just knew that the person who introduced him to others was called Wei Shao, although he was yet to learn his name, but at least he knew how to address him.
This Wei Shao, he was probably arranged by the Black Card, except he didn’t know how his memories will be wiped out after today. But, if the Black Card could kill someone without a trace, merely some memories should be easily.
Although he didn’t know whether they’ll remember his existence or not, but in front of these n.o.ble young men, Shi Lei was still somewhat intimidated.
Hence, Shi Lei said: “Don’t be so polite, just called me s.h.i.tou because i got used to this t.i.tle. About today’s fun, Wei Shao, do you want to tell them about it?” Shi Lei kept them in suspense, but in reality, he was scared to expose himself more.
