141: Chapter 141 One more can, one can per person

Yuanyuan chimed in at this moment, "Young Master Li, I'll call you when I need a ride in the future too."

Xiao Xi quickly responded as well, "Me too, me too."

Li Luo nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this. "Not bad, quite sensible."

Just as Li Luo finished speaking, he noticed Pan Xingyue tugging on his arm, shaking it continuously. He turned his head and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Pan Xingyue gestured with her eyes while saying, "Look at what your old flame is doing."

Li Luo was speechless upon hearing this—he had already said she wasn't an old flame—but he still curiously looked over. One glance immediately left him dumbfounded. "What are they doing?"

He saw the Girl who had been hit while eating barbecue last time holding her phone, clicking away, taking frantic photos of Song Keyi and the single steak on the table, even switching between several poses in the process.

Afterward, the Girl holding the phone sat down, and Song Keyi took out her own phone and snapped a flurry of photos of her.

Just like that, the remaining Girls took turns. Click, click, click—another round of frantic shooting, even though there was actually only one steak on the table.

Pan Xingyue looked on with disdain, then explained to her man.

"This is a new profession called 'socialite'. There are many Girls like this now. They look glamorous on the surface, but in reality, that steak on the table is something they split the bill for."

"Don't be fooled by them frequenting these high-end restaurants. Just like now, they use packaging and post on their Moments to hook men. Of course, the ultimate goal is primarily to fish for men's money."

Li Luo suddenly realized. Clearly, he wasn't completely ignorant.

After all, this is the information age; any slight disturbance can blow up on the internet. It was just a bit novel to see it in person.

On the first floor.

Li Siqi kept glancing toward the second floor, and only when that man retracted his gaze did she speak worriedly to her Best Friend beside her.

"Young Master Li was watching us for a long time just now. He must have figured something out, right?"

"So what if he figured it out? As long as our conscience is clear, that's all that matters."

"That's easy to say, but will he look down on us?"

Song Keyi held her Best Friend's hand upon hearing this and said earnestly, "Although our industry doesn't have a good reputation, every industry has its pros and cons. We don't steal, and we don't rob. We don't just mindlessly rush toward every rich man we see."

"If we have to wag our tails like dogs to please a man just because he's rich, then I'd rather not have that man."

"As for Young Master Li, if we ever get closer in the future, I will tell him everything. Although I love rich people, I'm not the type without principles."

"Fine! Whatever you decide!"

"Then..."

Li Siqi was just about to speak when she was interrupted by the familiar voice of that man on the second floor.

It wasn't just her; most people in the restaurant turned their gazes in that direction.

"What is this you've served?" Li Luo pointed at the items on the table and shouted at the Waiter in front of him.

The Waiter was also a bit confused.

"Sir, this is the caviar you ordered!"

"Caviar? If you hadn't said so, I would have thought it was just a few grains of black rice placed here!"

Hearing this reply, the Waiter was speechless and just about to explain something. The restaurant manager saw that the situation wasn't right and quickly ran over to say to him.

"You go down first! I'll handle things here."

"Alright, Manager."

After the Waiter left, the restaurant manager said politely to Li Luo.

"Sir, do you have any complaints about our dishes?"

Li Luo looked at the manager in front of him and said indifferently.

"I ordered six servings of caviar. What is this that you've served?"

"Sir, this Golden Caviar is our restaurant's top-tier ingredient, costing up to 480 huaxia coins per gram. So, the portion in front of you is one gram; they are all the same."

"What do you mean they are all the same? Who is this tiny amount enough for? If the foreigners at the next table see this, they'll think I can't afford it! Bring another can—one can for each person."

The restaurant manager had never encountered such a thing before and said with a shocked expression.

"Sir, our cans are 60 grams each, priced at 28,800 huaxia coins."

"Got it. Just bring them out—one can each."

"Alright, alright, please wait a moment."

After the restaurant manager left, Pan Xingyue said excitedly.

"Hubby, you were so handsome just now!"

Xiao Xi also looked at him with an expression of admiration.

"Is Young Master Li always this extravagant when eating? Caviar costing nearly 30,000 yuan, one can for each person."

"If Young Master Li were my boyfriend, I'd be willing to run naked in the street."

"Huihui, if you act all flirty again, I'll splash yellow wine on you to wake you up."

"I'll eat a little bit of this caviar and take the rest home later. I'll let my parents have a taste too, to see what the taste of money is like," Huang Ying also chimed in with a smile.

On the first floor. One of the Girls said to Li Siqi with an excited face.

"Siqi, that guy upstairs is a real Young Master! Shall we go and ask for his contact information later?"

Li Siqi rolled her eyes at her upon hearing this.

"Don't even think about it. Ke Yi has already set her sights on this Young Master and even has his contact information."

The other Girls couldn't help but exchange glances upon seeing this. Then, another Girl asked with a shocked face.

"Ke Yi, when did you get to know this Young Master?"

Song Keyi didn't beat around the bush and answered truthfully.

"It's been almost a week, and Siqi knows him too."

"Wow, you two! To think you were secretly getting to know such a top-tier man behind our backs."

"Exactly, exactly! You two are too mean. Tell us, how are you going to compensate us?"

"Alright! Alright! Later, let Siqi pay for this steak. That's enough, right?" Song Keyi said with a smile.

Li Siqi was dumbfounded upon seeing this and pointed at her own nose.

"I'm paying? Are you kidding me?"

"If you don't pay, who will? Who told you to talk so much!"

"But I only said that for your sake!" Li Siqi retorted in a low voice.

"If you don't pay, what if they go up and tell Young Master Li that you were the one who told them to go up? Let's see how you explain that to Young Master Li then."

"Fine! Fine! Fine! I'll pay, I'll pay, okay?"

"Then go pay! Once that's done, we should be about ready to head out."

"Got it, stop rushing me."

On the second floor. Li Luo watched the few Girls walking out of the restaurant, turned his head, and said with a smile.

"How is it? Is this caviar to your taste?"

"It's not good, a bit salty. They say you can taste the ocean, but how come I can't feel that?" Pan Xingyue said in confusion.

"Maybe everyone has different tastes!"

"Then, dear, do you think it's good?"

"Not good."

"Then that's settled." Pan Xingyue said, turning her head to ask the other sisters.

"Do you think it's good?"

The few of them exchanged glances and replied in unison.

"Not good."
