Chapter 34 Greasy Middle-aged Man
After finishing the call, Li Xiaoqiu waved his hand and said, "I've asked the housekeeper to send a car over. Let's all go together later so that no one or two will get separated."
In less than half an hour, a convoy of cars drove over.
Leading the group was a black stretched sedan, followed by five cars all worth millions.
The motorcade stopped at the edge of the square, and Butler Yang got out of the limousine. It was such a hot day, and he was wearing a black suit, white shirt, and bow tie. He stood by the car door and said respectfully, "Miss, please get in. Miss Lin Xi, please get in as well."
Liu Yuan's mouth opened into an O shape. She came from an ordinary family and had never seen such a grand occasion.
She moved her feet over there. Although there were many cars here, the one she wanted to get on the most was the stretched sedan.
Li Xiaoqiu asked everyone to get on the bus. The students all found empty buses and got on. Lin Xi and Zhu Tingting were also pushed on by Li Xiaoqiu. Just as Li Xiaoqiu was about to get on, Liu Yuan brushed past him and asked, "Um, Xiaoqiu, can I get on this bus?"
Li Xiaoqiu glanced at her calmly and said, "Please take another one. This one is too full."
Liu Yuan glanced into the car. There were long seats like sofas in the car, which could seat at least five or six people. She saw a long bar opposite the seats, which was filled with drinks, champagne and fruit plates.
The next second, Butler Yang closed the car door, blocking Liu Yuan's sight. She bit her lip, sat silently in the back, and got into another car.
There were four tables in a huge private room in a five-star hotel.
Li Xiaoqiu had the screen in the middle removed, and in the huge private room, a group of boys and girls were having fun.
Lin Xi had Li Xiaoqiu sitting on her left hand and Zhu Tingting on her right. Zhu Tingting leaned over and asked curiously, "Xixi, where's that huge check? Where did you put it?"
Lin Xi laughed, "That's just a formality. The money has been transferred to my account."
Zhu Tingting pouted, "I'm worried, what if such a big check gets snatched on the road?"
Li Xiaoqiu also came over and asked Lin Xi, "By the way, I heard from Teacher Yu that you did very well in the college entrance examination this time, and you said you were in the top 50 in the city. Do you plan to go to Beijing University or Qingdao University?"
Lin Xi thought for a moment and said, "Kyoto University, after all, Kyoto University focuses more on liberal arts."
Zhu Tingting asked curiously, "You must be choosing your major when you enter Peking University, right? What major did you choose?"
Lin Xi lowered her eyes, and some of the last fragments of her past life emerged in her mind. After a while, she said, "Archaeology."
Zhu Tingting was stunned. "Archaeology?"
Liu Yuan, who was sitting next to Zhu Tingting, also heard it. "Why did you apply for this major? It's an unpopular major. I heard that many students were transferred there. Wouldn't that waste your scores?"
"Besides, what future does a major like archaeology have? I'd be better off studying law. Law is the best major at Kyoto University. It's a promising major with good job prospects and you'll earn a lot in the future."
Li Xiaoqiu glared at her. "What do you know? Not everyone has the courage to pursue their dreams."
Liu Yuan was speechless and embarrassed. The stretched sedan and the five-star hotel made her completely lose her confidence in front of Li Xiaoqiu.
Li Xiaoqiu put his arm around Lin Xi and said, "I plan to apply to the Journalism Department of Peking University. From now on, I'll rely on you, the big boss, to protect me at school."
Zhu Tingting lowered her head. She didn’t do very well in the exam this time. Well, it wasn’t that bad. If she had performed normally, she would have been only a few dozen points higher than the first-tier line. She could forget about getting into Peking University.
However, she quickly raised her head. Even if she couldn't go to Peking University, it wouldn't prevent her from continuing to be friends with Xixi and Xiaoqiu.
Butler Yang arranged the dishes. The young lady has always been low-key. This is the first time she is inviting classmates to dinner, so naturally she cannot lose face.
The young and beautiful waiters, dressed in exquisite clothes, served plates of exquisite dishes.
Most of the students came from ordinary families, and they had never seen or even tasted such exquisite dishes.
Butler Yang stood not far away, silently observing the children.
The surprised expressions and inexperienced looks on their faces made him feel that his arrangements were correct.
However, Lin Xi was beyond his expectations.
After the last signing, he had some understanding of Lin Xi. Her parents were divorced, her mother was seriously ill, and her sister had to drop out of school to work to support the family. Their family could be considered relatively poor.
But she didn't show the slightest surprise when faced with the exquisite dishes on the table, the luxuriously decorated hall, and the priceless utensils. It was as if these things were nothing more than ordinary things in her eyes.
Butler Yang felt that there were two possibilities. One was that she was used to seeing this and so was indifferent.
Another thing is that she really doesn't care about material things or money.
Judging from her family conditions, it should be the second one.
While eating, Li Xiaoqiu reminded Lin Xi, "You should have an agent now. With your popularity, you will soon be approached by many endorsements and variety shows. You will need someone to handle these matters for you."
Lin Xi was completely unfamiliar with this field. "I don't need this. My mom has enough money for a kidney transplant now. I don't plan on getting any endorsements."
Li Xiaoqiu thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I suggest you take advantage of the popularity to make more money so that your mother and sister can live a better life."
Lin Xi really has no desire for material things, but she admits that what Li Xiaoqiu said makes sense.
Li Xiaoqiu smiled and said, "If you don't mind, how about I be your agent?"
Lin Xi laughed, "As a young lady, do you really need to do this?"
Li Xiaoqiu said seriously, "It's necessary. I plan to study journalism. Getting in touch with these things in advance and entering this circle will also be helpful in the future."
"Okay, as long as you don't mind it, I have no problem." Lin Xi nodded.
Li Xiaoqiu solemnly extended his hand to shake Lin Xi's, then turned to look at Butler Yang, "Help me prepare the contract tomorrow, and also find someone to design my business card."
After dinner, the stretched sedan took Lin Xi to the entrance of the alley.
At this time, it was almost two o'clock. Liu Dongsheng was riding an electric bike out of the alley on his way to work. He saw Butler Yang standing respectfully by the door and opened the car door.
Liu Dongsheng had never seen this kind of behavior before, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and then his eyes almost fell out.
Lin Xi actually got out of the car.
She looked very casual, as if she had gotten off a bus.
Liu Dongsheng opened his mouth and wanted to call Lin Xi to ask where she met the rich man.
Lin Xi didn't even glance at him and walked quickly into the alley.
The limousine also left quickly. Liu Dongsheng stopped by the roadside, with two conflicting emotions rising in his heart at the same time.
A vague fear and uncontrollable excitement.
He suddenly turned the car around and drove into the alley, and soon got ahead of Lin Xi.
He got out of the car and forced a greasy smile, "Xixi, Dad wants to talk to you."
