0018 Childhood Friend (If you've already read this, go directly to the previous chapter. This chapter was mistakenly posted last night; the order has been corrected.)
"Hello, this way please..."
Tantai Qing followed the waiter's directions and entered the private room with ease.
After pushing open the door, the two men who were chatting turned around at the sound of the voice, and when they saw it was him, they smiled in unison.
"Speak of the devil, and he appears. I was just thinking of you, and here you are..." The speaker was Song Yuchang, one of his childhood friends.
A waitress dressed in a blue-and-white porcelain-colored fitted cheongsam stepped forward to take the suit jacket that Tantai Qing had just taken off from his hand, and turned around to gently drape it over the valuable rosewood screen.
Looking around but not seeing that familiar, mischievous figure, Tantai Qing asked in confusion, "Where's Nan Nan?"
Upon hearing this, Song Yuchang scoffed, "That little girl took an early flight to Milan to watch the fashion show today. I wonder when she'll be back."
The "little girl" he mentioned was Xiang Nannan, who grew up with the three of them. Because she was a few years younger than them, everyone doted on her like a younger sister.
"You seem to have found out everything about her." Cheng Jing lowered her head, took a sip of Longjing tea, glanced at him, and teased.
"What kind of news is this? Don't you know who she is? Besides eating, drinking, and having fun, what else can she do all day?" Song Yuchang picked up a piece of crispy peanut with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth, rambling on, "Today it's a fashion show, tomorrow it's tea, the day after tomorrow it's a party..."
He seemed to know Xiang Nannan's hobbies and habits inside and out, describing her in his words as a spoiled young lady with nothing to do and an empty head.
Cheng Jing and Tantai Qing exchanged a glance, both secretly smiling without saying a word.
"Which airline in City B doesn't know her name?" Song Yuchang put down his chopsticks and chuckled.
Because Xiang Nannan frequently travels abroad, almost all the major airlines in City B are already familiar with her as a VIP guest. Some airlines that are good at winning her over even try to guess her travel routes in advance and extend invitations.
Tantai Qing wiped her hands clean with a wet wipe before starting to eat. "If that's the case, why don't you just let her use that private car?"
A few years ago, he, who rarely traveled abroad, suddenly bought a private jet, the significance of which is thought-provoking.
Song Yuchang shook his head in protest: "No way, I haven't even used it a few times myself..."
That's what they say, but in reality, Xiang Nannan used it quite a lot. You could say she used it nine times out of ten, and Song Yuchang covered all the related expenses.
Someone who didn't know better might have thought that plane was heading towards the south.
The two of them were already used to his hypocritical behavior. After exposing him a few times in the past, which angered him, they stopped paying attention to him.
"What new project has Chang'an started?" Tantai Qing hadn't been here for a while. He noticed the brochure on the table and picked it up to take a look.
"Chang'an" is the top-tier private club they are currently in. This club has extremely high requirements; the membership fee alone is nearly $20,000, and the membership is not permanent. Members need to spend up to one million yuan every year to maintain their membership.
Most importantly, there are different levels of members. The highest-level members, like them, spend far more than a million dollars a year at this club, and the services they enjoy are naturally very different.
Fortunately, their prices are commensurate with their services. Due to their high level of privacy, diverse services, and high-quality service, they have been a favorite destination for many politicians and wealthy businessmen for decades.
Song Yuchang glanced at it sideways, then said listlessly, "Year after year, it's always the same few things..."
Yachts, parties, clubs...
Basically, they're just trying every possible way to attract their investment.
