Chapter 6
"I said it was a New Year's gift, why are you transferring the money? Don't you consider me a friend?" Xue Mi smiled and pulled Zhang Ying, "Hurry up and try on the coat I bought for you. It's been more than a month, and I don't know if the size is still suitable."
Zhang Ying rolled her eyes at her, but couldn't help but be curious: "Did you really win the lottery? Otherwise, the money you spent today would almost be as much as your half-year salary."
Xue Mi still smiled mysteriously, and told Zhang Ying that she was going to resign and would tell her department head about it after the New Year.
Zhang Ying became even more suspicious, and suddenly remembered something: "You don't really believe those kidney-cutting scammers and plan to go abroad, do you?"
She felt that Xue Mi looked really strange today. Whether it was her sudden lavish spending or her resignation, it was totally unlike her previous style.
Just a few days ago, Xue Mi was still talking to me about how much salary she would get if she could get a promotion. How come she suddenly resigned? !
Zhang Ying felt that her best friend was either upset about the breakup, or was fooled by some inexplicable person. It didn't seem like a good thing.
Seeing Zhang Ying's worried look, Xue Mi finally told her vaguely about her mother's inheritance.
In order to avoid scaring her best friend, she did not tell her in detail how much money her mother left for her, but it was definitely not a small amount.
"So, the call you received last night was not from a scammer?" Zhang Ying was still full of doubts.
Xue Mi nodded: "My birth certificate was lost when I was young. I didn't expect it was actually in my biological mother's hands. This time it was brought here by the lawyer."
She went to elementary school in the countryside. At that time, the supervision was lax and she didn't need this to register for school. As for studying abroad, Xue Mi never had such an idea and never went to apply for it.
Zhang Ying was still half-believing and half-doubting: "It could also be a forgery."
"The inheritance procedures haven't been completed yet, but the lawyer not only didn't charge me any money, he also transferred a sum of money to me, saying that it was given to me in advance by my mother." Xue Mi said, showing Zhang Ying the balance text message on her phone.
The two were best friends who could talk about anything. Zhang Ying was naturally aware of Xue Mi's financial situation. When she saw the large sum of money that appeared out of nowhere, she couldn't help but exclaim in excitement.
but……
Zhang Ying couldn't help but hug Xue Mi: "So your mother..."
After all, she is a true best friend. When faced with a huge amount of windfall, the first thing Zhang Ying thought of was heartache.
She knew how Xue Mi had been through these years.
Xue Mi: "Well, I didn't expect that..."
"Don't think too much about it. At least you don't have to worry about money now. You are rich, sister! When you become rich, don't forget each other!" Zhang Ying hugged Xue Mi's shoulders and shook her.
Xue Mi also hugged back: "So, do you want my New Year's gift for you?"
What else is there to say? Of course!
Zhang Ying happily tried on the new clothes that she had been reluctant to buy before, and they still fit her so well. Standing together with Xue Mi, they were definitely two fashion elites who would attract a lot of attention when they went out on the street.
"It's agreed that we'll go out for a big dinner tomorrow night. I'll treat you." Xue Mi didn't care whether it was a holiday or not. She had money anyway, so she could eat whatever she wanted.
Zhang Ying readily agreed, but still said, "I'll shamelessly eat your meal again, but we'll split the bill in the future. You've always wanted to buy a house, and a car, so you can start planning for that."
Zhang Ying didn't ask about the total amount in detail, estimating it to be only a few hundred or a few million at most. It seemed like a lot, but in fact it was not enough to buy a house in a good location.
Xue Mi smiled: "Don't worry, I know what's going on."
That night, Xue Mi simply stayed at Zhang Ying's house. She had stayed there several times before and had all the spare underwear and toiletries she needed.
The two sisters lay on the bed, reminiscing about their college days and imagining the happy days of eating, drinking and having fun in the future. They talked and laughed until midnight, when they fell asleep in a daze.
The next morning, Xue Mi was woken up by the alarm on her cell phone.
With messy hair and eyelids that couldn't open, she simply washed up, said something to Zhang Ying who was still curled up in the quilt and couldn't open her eyes, and went to work.
Uncle Zhang and Aunt Shen were already awake by this time. Seeing Xue Mi was in a hurry to go out, they hurriedly called her over and stuffed a few hot buns into her hands before letting her go: "Even if you are in a hurry, you can't skip breakfast. Besides, it's still early. You won't be late."
Xue Mi held a glove in her mouth and a warm bun in her hand. She said thank you to her uncle and aunt, then ran downstairs.
Just like yesterday, Xue Mi called a taxi in advance. From the corridor to the car, she didn't even feel much wind and snow. Even the buns in her hands were still hot.
Having money really gives you confidence, and even going to work doesn't seem like a particularly difficult thing anymore.
Of course, it may also be that they feel that they don’t have many days left as office workers, so they cherish them especially.
Sitting in the warm and comfortable online-hailing car, eating the delicious and steaming buns, Xue Mi couldn't help but smile happily.
The online car-hailing driver glanced at the passenger behind him and said, "Are you going on a date, little girl? You look so happy."
"No, I'm working overtime."
"Are you so happy working overtime?" the driver looked surprised.
I didn't expect that this pretty girl is also a workaholic.
In fact, a day ago, Xue Mi was still a hard-working worker who would frown whenever he talked about work.
There is no choice. When people are about to lose something, they cherish it the most.
If people don't behave like humble people, what's the point of living?
So even though she had to work overtime for another day, Xue Mi was still in a good mood.
Mainly because of the overtime work today, but it was really too relaxing.
Apart from clocking in and transferring data twice, the rest of the time she would enjoy the heater, drink hot tea, and stay in the quiet office, browsing shopping websites to her heart's content.
The first thing to do is of course to empty your shopping cart.
In the past, for those things that I wanted to buy but couldn’t make up my mind or thought were too expensive, I would just select them all and put them in the shopping cart, and the total amount was only 19,872.75.
You don’t even have to think about it, just place the order and pay.
After paying, the website instantly pushed a lot of related product links. Xue Mi used to think this setting was stupid. After buying it, who would want to continue looking at the same type of products?
But now, she continued to choose with great interest.
This hat is nice. Although I have already bought a similar style, I haven’t bought the red and gray ones yet. I’ll just put it away. It’s just convenient to match with other clothes.
The pattern of this cloak is also very nice and unique, so I bought it.
There is also this domestic brand of skin care products. Although I have already bought the items that I was attracted to, this set looks so cute! Besides, it’s not shameful to support domestic products, so buy it!
The design of this smart water cup is very interesting, but it doesn’t seem to be of much use... Never mind, just place an order!
She just flipped through the pages, and by the time Xue Mi reacted, ten minutes had passed before the end of get off work.
Xue Mi suddenly came back to her senses, and looking at the result of 228 orders in one afternoon with a total amount of more than 30,000, her face looked a little unhappy.
It’s not that she feels sorry for the money, but she thinks that by the time all the packages are sent over, she’ll probably be running around.
And it is indeed very easy to get carried away when buying things. Even though many of them are obviously not useful, you will pay for them on impulse.
But never mind. I've been poor for so long. It's understandable that I'd go crazy after suddenly becoming rich overnight.
The good thing about having enough money is that Xue Mi accepted her impulsive shopping behavior with peace of mind.
At this time, Zhang Ying had already arrived downstairs at Xue Mi's company and called to urge her to come down.
"Wait for me a minute, I'll be down right away." Xue Mi said, quickly turned off the phone, left work, and rushed downstairs.
The two of them had already agreed in the morning that they would go out together in the evening to an expensive buffet restaurant that they had wanted to go to for a long time.
698 for one. The two had been reluctant to part with it before, but this time, they could finally try it out.
In fact, Xue Mi originally wanted to take her bestie to a better star-rated restaurant, but the two of them had a tacit understanding when it came to spending. They both felt that high-end restaurants that charged high prices and had pitifully small portions were a complete rip-off, so it would be better to opt for a buffet where they could eat to their heart's content.
The ingredients don’t necessarily have to be much different, the key is to be able to eat enough.
As expected of a famous and expensive buffet restaurant in the city, it gathers fresh ingredients airlifted from all over the world, which is dazzling to look at. You always have the illusion that you can earn your money's worth by eating.
For this meal, Zhang Ying even skipped lunch and specially prepared some digestive tablets. Her goal was to eat enough and not let the capitalists make money from her.
Xue Mi was leisurely. The first thing she looked at was not the expensive seafood and marbled beef. Instead, she picked up a plate of exquisite desserts and ate it slowly.
"This is too bad," Zhang Ying said to Xue Mi in a low voice, "At least we should eat a few more lobsters."
"I just ate yesterday, and I feel a little sick of it," Xue Mi has become the epitome of being rich and willful, "I ate a little too much at noon, and now I can't eat much."
She didn't want to go out at noon, so she searched on her phone for a long time and finally found a clay pot rice restaurant that delivered takeout. The price was a bit high, but the taste was really good, and Xue Mi accidentally ate too much.
Zhang Ying hated him for not fighting back: "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you couldn't eat it? I just changed to another restaurant."
"It's okay, the desserts here are also delicious, you can try it." Xue Mi dug a corner of the cake and stuffed it into Zhang Ying's mouth.
Zhang Ying's eyes lit up: "It's really delicious, and it's comparable to that extremely expensive Sassa Roche. If I eat more of this, I can make my money back!"
"Yeah, just enjoy it." Xue Mi smiled with her eyes narrowed.
The decoration here is luxurious, and the waiters are all outstanding and smiling. While the two of them were eating the sumptuous meal, they secretly commented on the handsome boys and beautiful girls. It was really a double enjoyment for both the mouth and the eyes.
Xue Mi had not originally intended to eat and drink too much, but seeing Zhang Ying eating so happily, her appetite gradually opened up. She wanted to try this and that, and ended up eating too much accidentally. In the end, like Zhang Ying, she lay on her seat for a long time and couldn't get up.
The two looked at each other, and suddenly started laughing like an idiot. They laughed so hard that their bloated stomachs became affected, and they started humming again.
In the end, the two bumpkins shared the digestive tablets that Zhang Ying brought over, rested for a long time, and then supported each other out of the restaurant.
Although we accidentally attracted a few surprised looks, it’s our good appetite and no one can do anything about it!
