At Zhao Mei's signal, Zhao Jing sat down across from her and replied, "Yes, I did. I took him to the Haocheng Building as you said, Miss. A building manager said the 15th and 17th floors were reserved, and he chose the 15th. After that, I took him to the bank to transfer the money. As for the money, he said he only needed 500 million for now, so I transferred that much."
"Give him as much as he wants later. You just need to contact him. If he needs shares, let him come to me directly. Besides, I don't know what my company is doing at the moment, so let him keep it for now. But where does he live now?" Zhao Mei leaned on the sofa with her legs crossed and asked puzzledly.
"I asked him if he needed a place to live, and he said his previous roommate hadn't found a suitable place since he left, so he continued to live with his roommate. I checked and found that the residential complex he shared a room in wasn't close to the Haocheng Building, but the transportation was quite convenient."
Zhao Mei didn't bother to care when she heard that he had a place to live. "It's enough for now. If the money he earns from running the company isn't enough to buy a house in the capital, he won't have to work anymore."
After stretching vigorously, Zhao Mei and Zhao Jing asked for a midnight snack, but were decisively rejected by the housekeeper Zhao, who strictly controlled their health. Although not hungry, Zhao Mei was really greedy and could only sadly choose to go back to her room to sleep and patiently wait for the hearty breakfast the next day.
The next day, after having a delicious breakfast as she wished, Zhao Mei remembered the beautiful Phantom that she could drive but couldn't. After learning from her mistakes, Zhao Mei quickly changed into sun protection gear and went to the driving school to sign up for a one-on-one package that would help her pass the driving test.
Unfortunately, after registering, Zhao Mei realized that all her equipment was in vain. Even if you are a car god from heaven, you still have to take the first subject test in China. Zhao Mei, who thought she could drive a car on the first day, returned home dejectedly and collapsed on the bed with a numb face while doing exercises and reviewing classes.
The precious four days before school started were spent by Zhao Mei reviewing one subject and taking a systematic skills class, and soon the school day arrived.
After packing her luggage, Zhao Mei watched Zhao Jing get into the driver's seat of the Phantom she had been dreaming of. She could only pout and get into the back seat, comforting herself that a luxury car like the Phantom should be sat in the back seat! Otherwise, it would be meaningless!
However, no matter how good the car is, it will be stuck outside the school gate in the face of the crowded crowd. The Capital University where Zhao Mei studies is one of the best universities in China, with a long history and many talented people.
But another meaning of a long history is often poor maintenance. Zhao Mei was stuck in traffic for an hour on a road leading to the campus. She once laughed at the long queues at the school gate when she pushed her luggage into the school. Unexpectedly, as fate would have it, she also became one of the people who were ridiculed.
After going through untold hardships, Zhao Mei finally dragged her luggage and squeezed into the dormitory she hadn't seen for nearly five or six months, becoming the first member to arrive.
The second person to arrive right after Zhao Mei was her best friend Qiu Jiahe, whom she hadn't been able to contact all summer. After Qiu Jiahe entered the room, she saw a beautiful woman with fair skin, wearing a khaki windbreaker and a high ponytail sitting in her best friend's seat. She thought she had entered the wrong dormitory and didn't even give Zhao Mei time to react. She closed the door and carefully checked the dormitory number. She found that it was correct. Considering that the woman looked very familiar, an impossible thought came to her mind.
"Zhao Mei!? Zhao Mei?" Qiu Jiahe pushed the door open again with a bang and shouted loudly.
Zhao Mei skillfully covered her ears when she heard the first sound, and only put her hands down after she finished listening and replied, "Yeah, who else could it be?"
Qiu Jiahe circled around Zhao Mei in disbelief. "Incredible, incredible! Whose craftsmanship is this? You must introduce it to me, my sisters. I'll give you five months at most, Zhao Mei. You've lost weight so quickly and you look so good. Tell me the truth!"
Zhao Mei, who had already prepared a plan, used her usual lottery story: "All this started with my good luck. I won the lottery, then I went home and found a great trainer and had a beauty treatment. Isn't the effect quite obvious?"
Qiu Jiahe gave a thumbs-up. "Awesome, awesome! Congratulations to our Meili for making it into the ranks of great beauties. She's so pretty she should debut right here, otherwise it's a waste of resources..." He suddenly remembered something mid-sentence, "Wait... lottery?! You kid! You got rich by stealing, didn't you?!"
Zhao Mei remained indifferent as she watched her drama queen bestie's expression of hurt. "Don't blame me for not telling you. Someone went on a trip abroad and disappeared for half the summer. You're the one to take the blame." Seeing her bestie's skin darken, she continued to ruthlessly prick her heart. "It's obvious that she's been exposed to the Aegean Sea breeze a lot. Look at how it's been blowing on our Jiahe. Her skin has become rough. She must have been exposed to the sun a lot, and she's even darker."
After making fun of her bestie, Zhao Mei looked at her aggrieved expression and offered some comfort. She pulled out an exquisite gift box and said, "Here, since you said I've made a fortune, I shouldn't prepare a gift for you. I know you went to enjoy the sea breeze, so I brought you some whitening and moisturizing skincare products."
Qiu Jiahe gave her a bear hug: "Ah, my best beauty must be hugged! Even now that you are rich, you still don't forget me, your wife who has been with you through thick and thin. I am so moved that I cry."
As the two were joking around, two other roommates entered the dormitory and noticed the drastically changed Zhao Mei. One of them asked in disbelief, "You're Zhao Mei? You've changed so much?"
The person who asked this question was Yin Chunya, who had long hair, delicate makeup, and wore a skirt that seemed a little cold in the September weather. Following behind her was Feng Nan, an ordinary-looking girl with a low ponytail. In Zhao Mei's memory, these two people had been good friends since their freshman year and always went in and out together.
Yin Chunya once invited Zhao Mei to go out with them, but Zhao Mei didn't want to go again after going once or twice because the atmosphere with them was awkward. Now, even after three years, Zhao Mei still feels weird when she looks at the two of them again.
However, Zhao Mei still smiled and answered the question: "Yes, it's me. My family made a little money, so I lost some weight and did some whitening." After that, she took two other boxes from her desk and said, "These are gifts for you. Thank you for taking care of me over the past three years. I hope we can continue to get along well in the new semester."
Yin Chunya opened the box and found that it was the expensive luxury skin care product she had been eyeing for for a long time. She was immediately amazed: "Wow! Beautiful! This set must have cost a lot of money. Thank you so much, you are so kind."
Feng Nan blushed and whispered thank you. Zhao Mei waved her hand to indicate that it was okay. She turned around and explained to her best friend on the phone that what she bought for her was different, to prevent someone from thinking that she was perfunctory to her.
