Shi Xi, completely unaware of this, was still watching the cranes.
The private rooms of Crane Pavilion are scattered around the perimeter. From the windows, you can see the small bridge and flowing water in the middle, and a white crane stands on the artificial hill, moving around from time to time.
Shi Xi and Yun Guanghe discussed whether white cranes were indeed rare animals.
Shi Xi wasn't quite sure. "They should be protected animals, right? I remember that white cranes and red-crowned cranes are both protected animals."
Yun Guanghe raised a question: "If it's a protected animal, it wouldn't be in a restaurant, would it? What if it gets accidentally killed?"
Shi Xi nodded, "That's right, it does look quite like a duck."
"Duck? I think it's more like a goose," Yun Guanghe pondered. "I wonder if it tastes good."
Even the usually reserved Wen Yao couldn't help but join the discussion, "White cranes are protected animals, I don't know how they ended up here."
It wasn't until the waiter came in and asked that I learned that the artificial cranes on the rockery were fake, so lifelike that they were even electrified.
The three were disillusioned.
I also felt embarrassed.
"I'm never coming back!"
"I'm never going out to eat with you again! It's too embarrassing!"
"Shall we go to Qingshuiju next time?"

Back at the hotel, Shi Xi first took a bath, then put on a face mask and leaned back on the sofa playing on her phone.
When Xie Yunzhou made the call, she noticed that there seemed to be quite a few unread messages.
Let her see who sent it.
As a result, Shi Xi saw a series of transfer and bank deposit notifications.
Shi Xi looked at her account balance in surprise and couldn't help but count it again.
Her account had 200,000 before, how did it suddenly have so many zeros?
Brother Shixu transferred five million.
How could Ning Yu have transferred seven million to her?!
It turns out that going from a petty rich woman to a multi-millionaire only takes an afternoon.
At a young age, Shi Xi experienced the joy of becoming rich overnight.
She doesn't want to work hard anymore; she's already a multi-millionaire.
Shi Xi leaned back on the sofa, thinking about how to tell Han Chuan that she wanted to retire from the entertainment industry.
She has already made enough money.
With so much money, I don't have to worry about my future at all.
Oh well, who would complain about having too much money?
Shi Xi thanked them one by one, and only when she chatted with Tao Yuxuan did she realize that they thought she was poor, which was why they were so generous in feeding her.
Thinking about it this way, I'm actually a little touched.
Waaah, there are still so many good people in the world!
As Shi Xi was thinking this, she saw all sorts of mockery directed at her on Weibo.
Shi Xi: ...
Forget it, why bother with these people?
Shi Xi was secretly delighted, planning whether she should buy an apartment first.
Everyone needs a place to live.
Just as Shi Xi was lost in thought, her mother called.
"Xixi, your birthday is coming up soon. I'll throw you a big party and invite all your classmates and friends, okay?" Mother Shi said gently.
"Birthday?" Shi Xi instinctively wanted to refuse.
System: [Trigger Plot Point: Birthday Party. Host, please be sure to attend the party!]
Shi Xi's good mood vanished instantly, and she said in a miserable tone, "Okay."
"Your grades will be out by then, so I'll invite your teachers over and throw a big thank-you banquet for them. What do you think?" Shi's mother was even happier when she heard Shi Xi agree.
Shi Xi had no choice but to comply with her mother's arrangements.
When it was finally time, Shi Xi thought of something and said, "Ning Yu and I share the same birthday, let's celebrate our birthdays together that day."
Shi's mother paused for a moment, then said, "Don't worry, Mom will order a super-huge birthday cake for you!"
After hanging up the phone, Shi Xi recalled this scene.
