JS District, in a rental house.
"So your boss gave you hundreds of thousands of dollars without even frowning?" Lily asked while putting on her clothes.
"Yeah. Everything is here."
Because Lily works as an atmosphere member in the bar and only "works" at night, she was ready to go out when Lin Shirui came back.
"The small boss you're talking about is worth hundreds of millions, drives a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, and just bought a Patek Philippe watch worth over three million today," Lin Shirui added.
"It's true that people are so different. When I was his age, I was still working part-time to earn money for college living expenses." Lily sighed.
"I can be a bit strong, but if I want to buy some cosmetics, I have to save money." Lin Shirui also felt the same way.
"But now you've made it. In a couple of days you can go to the supercar challenge to watch the stars. I'm so envious." Although Lily said this, she was really happy for Lin Shirui in her heart.
"Why look at celebrities? Who knows how busy they'll be by then."
Why didn't Lin Shirui refuse when Si Mingyu bought clothes and jewelry for her? Because she knew it was really a work requirement and she was just a tool, so there was no need to be pretentious.
"Lend me this bag today. That silly girl Da Mi bought a new bag and showed it off in front of me for three days. Don't I know where she got the money? And how could that guy eat her even though he's so ugly? But you can't blame her. With how she looks, that guy must be blind." Lily said, picking up the LV Capucines handbag.
"Then you should take this one; it's more expensive." Lin Shirui handed over the Chanel 2.55. Lily had told her a lot about the nightclub scene; she knew several of the "famous" people, especially Da Mi, who was always competing with Lily.
"Keep this for next time. Let's go!" Lily put the things into the new bag and left with a happy step.
The bar where Lili worked as a ambiance assistant paid her 300 yuan a day in cash. If she wanted tips, she had to pay for the customers' drinks and keep them happy. So, half of the time, Lili was throwing up, but the average monthly income of 13,000 to 14,000 yuan kept her going.
This is Shanghai. For Lily, who has no skills and a family to take care of, there's no easier and better-paying job than this. Unless, like Da Mi said, she works as a prostitute.
Even though 13,000 or 14,000 yuan might seem like a lot, after paying for rent and sending money home, there wasn't much left. Others could spend a few days lying down and closing their eyes to buy an LV bag, but Lily would have to save for months.
Where there are people, there are conflicts. In order to avoid being looked down upon by those who make money standing up, people who make money by lying down can only show off their money.
The next day at noon.
"Ms. Lin, I'm downstairs. You can come down now. I'm driving a black Mercedes-Benz G63."
"Okay, right away." Lin Shirui hurriedly put on her shoes and went downstairs, holding a small shopping bag in her hand.
Before leaving yesterday, Si Mingyu called her and told her that someone would pick her up the next day. After the dinner, she would stay in the villa at the Magic City International Circuit. She would leave after attending the first event the next day, so she brought some personal items with her.
Since it's a villa, there must be more than one room, so just treat it as a business trip.
The caller was a middle-aged man in a suit. He looked ordinary, but exuded a powerful aura. They were sent by Gu Shuanghui. After all, Si Mingyu's rise to power was too short, and there was no time to recruit suitable personnel. So they had to borrow two people temporarily.
"My name is Shi Shan, his name is She Haibin, and he is Mr. Si's bodyguard." The middle-aged man opened the car door for Lin Shirui.
"Thank you, Brother Shi." Lin Shirui thanked him with a smile.
The car headed north onto the Shenhai Expressway. Si Mingyu would meet them on the road and then head straight to the Magic City International Circuit.
"Ms. Lin, the box in the back and the things inside are all prepared for you." said Shi Shan, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
"Oh, okay." Lin Shirui looked back and saw a small LV trolley case.
Since it was prepared for herself, she naturally had to open it and take a look. If it was information or activity supplies, she had to know what they were in advance.
But after opening it, she found that besides a set of Dior skincare products and a set of makeup, there was only an Apple laptop. Lin Shirui thought about it and understood Si Mingyu's intention. She quietly put the shopping bag containing her personal belongings into the box.
Soon after, Lin Shirui saw the rose-red Lamborghini Aventador SVJ passing from behind from the car window, and her car immediately accelerated to catch up.
At this time, the Magic City International Circuit has already been arranged, but because the event will not officially start until tomorrow, vehicles and personnel without permission are strictly prohibited from entering.
The participating supercars will be taken over by the race organizing committee staff, who will be responsible for maintenance and cleaning, and parked in the indoor parking lot. In fact, many out-of-town participants' cars are shipped several days in advance, so they can just come and pick up the car.
Because most people will arrive a day early, the formal banquet is scheduled for tonight. The purpose is to allow participants from all walks of life to get to know each other and communicate with each other, so that no one will get drunk and affect their driving skills the next day.
Besides, the so-called supercar challenge is just a gathering for everyone to have fun and have some fun. A group of amateurs can't really compete like professional drivers.
"Mr. Si, please come this way. I'm sorry that Manager Gao can't greet you personally."
Because there were so many big shots and newly rich people coming, the club's senior executives, including Gao Chengjun, had to personally greet every guest, so they didn't have to do anything else. At the same time, they couldn't favor one over the other, so they arranged for staff to receive everyone regardless of their identity.
After waving his hand to show that he didn't care, Si Mingyu and his party came to the villa area under the guidance of the staff.
On the way, he met several other participants who were also staying in the villa area. He naturally knew the famous ones, but he didn't know about those who didn't often appear in the media. However, it was certain that none of them knew Si Mingyu. After all, he was just an ordinary college student a few months ago.
The villas were meticulously cleaned and maintained, and all toiletries and daily necessities were world-renowned brands, striving for perfection. The organizers even hired an entire team from the Shangri-La Group to service the villas, even if the participants were only staying for a day or two.
There are still a few hours before the dinner starts, and the tea room, coffee shop, cigar bar and billiard hall are all available for these people to use. You can invite friends or acquaintances to get together and chat in advance.
However, although this event was very high-profile, in reality only a few dozen people from the club came to participate. After all, many people would not make a special trip to Shanghai for a small event. Instead, more people came from other clubs in the local area and neighboring provinces and cities.
