30: Is the shower room deliberately left unrepaired?

All this time, she had hidden her identity at the company and in front of her sisters.

Everyone could tell her family was rich, but they just didn't know which family she belonged to.

Because her secrecy measures were good enough.

Unexpectedly, her cover was blown in this shopping mall.

She was actually recognized.

There was nothing she could do; many people who frequented this mall were well-known figures in Jiangcheng.

Or they were fringe members of the upper class.

They cherished gossip about the wealthy elite, as they relied on this information gap for their living.

So, it wasn't surprising that Lu Hanxiao was recognized.

“OMG! Sister Xiao, you actually...”

Her two sisters couldn't help but exclaim, “Then Sister Xiao must treat us to this meal today! For keeping secrets from us for so long.”

Although they could usually tell that Lu Hanxiao's family was very rich.

In every respect.

But they never expected her to be this rich.

She was actually the daughter of Jiangcheng's pharmaceutical tycoon, with hundreds of billions in annual revenue. A true heiress of a wealthy family.

“Alright, alright, I'll treat.”

Lu Hanxiao readily agreed.

Then she said, “However, even though you know, you can't tell anyone outside. I don't want others to know, especially at the company.”

“We know, Sister Xiao.”

Her two sisters nodded in agreement.

If she didn't want them to say anything, there was naturally a reason for it.

“Let's eat at this place.”

“Great, I wanted hotpot too!”

The four people walked around and stopped at the entrance of the “Lao Haidi” Hotpot City.

The staff enthusiastically welcomed them inside.

They were arranged to sit at the best table near the window.

Firstly, seating them at an outer table was meant to attract customers.

Secondly, having four handsome men and beautiful women sitting by the window was essentially free advertising for the restaurant.

Sure enough, upon seeing the four people near the entrance.

Many people who were originally heading to other restaurants turned around and entered Lao Haidi.

The restaurant's occupancy rate was much higher than usual.

“Go arrange for the kitchen to prioritize serving their dishes,” the Front Hall Manager instructed.

These customers were clearly extraordinary, and they couldn't afford any service mishaps.

Soon, the dishes the four had ordered were served.

“Wait, we don't think we ordered these dishes.”

Lu Hanxiao said, pointing to a few plates of meat dishes.

“Did you order them?”

Zhang Yu and the two sisters shook their heads.

“These are complimentary dishes from our restaurant. Please enjoy them.”

The staff member explained with a smile.

They were practically the restaurant's living advertisements, driving today's customer traffic.

Customer traffic had increased by over 50% compared to previous days.

Sending a few plates of food was nothing in comparison.

“Since they're complimentary, let's put them all into the pot.”

As soon as Zhang Yu said this.

The other three almost simultaneously reached out their chopsticks, intending to grab slices of raw meat from the plates.

Lu Hanxiao and Di Xiaoba reacted first, withdrawing their chopsticks.

Leaving the opportunity to perform for the youngest, Pan Yuyao.

Steam rose from the hotpot.

The three Flight Attendants ate while chatting about the things they had encountered over the past two days.

When girls get together, they always have endless things to talk about.

For a moment, Zhang Yu was completely ignored.

However, he didn't mind.

He focused on scooping meat out of the pot for himself.

His physical exertion today had been considerable; this amount of food wasn't even enough to fill his stomach.

Di Xiaoba was also the second biggest eater among the four.

Even while talking, she didn't forget to fill her stomach first.

“Seriously, you two are big eaters, huh?”

Pan Yuyao stared blankly. “I've been running around for two days and haven't been this hungry.”

“Here, this slice of meat is cooked. Eat this first.”

Di Xiaoba immediately picked up a piece and placed it in her bowl.

“Xiao Ba, you're the best.”

Pan Yuyao cheered.

Once she had food, she cared about nothing else.

The greedy girl just loved this kind of food.

For her, the most satisfying thing in life right now was eating.

“Come on, let's clink glasses.”

The four people raised their juice drinks.

“This is the first time our family of four has eaten together. Let's take a photo.”

Pan Yuyao suggested.

What family of four?

Zhang Yu, Lu Hanxiao, and Di Xiaoba exchanged glances.

But they cooperated and raised their hands in a peace sign.

“Yo, isn't that Pan Yuyao? Haven't seen you in years; I can't believe I ran into you here.”

Just then.

A few people passing by outside glanced over.

They suddenly stopped and recognized Pan Yuyao.

She had been eating happily, but when she looked up and saw those people, her expression immediately changed.

The tripe in her mouth no longer tasted good.

Zhang Yu looked over and saw that these people included both men and women.

Their hair was dyed in various colors.

They looked as if a rainbow had turned into living people.

They were definitely "Jing Shen Xiaohuo" and "Jing Shen Xiaomei."

They were also dressed in bizarre clothing.

One girl had a full head of dreadlocks and heavy, dark eyeshadow.

She wore ripped pants, where the upper and lower halves of the legs were connected by only a few threads.

She was the one who had just recognized Pan Yuyao.

“Who are you people?”

Lu Hanxiao looked at them.

She was the first to speak.

She had noticed the change in her sister's expression.

“It's nothing, just greeting an old friend. Isn't that right, Pan Yuyao? Hey, Pan Yuyao, why aren't you saying anything?”

The girl with dreadlocks said to her.

Pan Yuyao, however, kept her head down, avoiding their gaze, and didn't say a word.

“Ugh, boring. Still such a pushover. Let's go.”

Saying this, the group swaggered away.

“They're gone.”

Di Xiaoba said softly, watching them leave.

“Landlord, Sister Xiao, Xiao Ba, you guys keep eating. I want to go back.”

Pan Yuyao stood up.

“Yuyao, wait a moment, let's go back together.”

Zhang Yu said.

Clearly, that group not only knew Pan Yuyao but likely had a conflict with her in the past.

Otherwise, her mood wouldn't have suddenly plummeted.

Hearing his words, Pan Yuyao felt a warmth in her heart.

When a person is feeling down, a single word of encouragement and comfort can make them much stronger.

“Thank you, I'm fine.”

She smiled.

“Then let's go back together.”

Lu Hanxiao also said, “The three of us must stick together, no matter what we do.”

They had also finished eating just about everything.

After speaking, she saw a slightly surprised expression on Zhang Yu's face.

Remembering what happened before, she felt a little guilty.

She then stepped forward.

And linked arms with Pan Yuyao.

Di Xiaoba also went over to comfort her.

Zhang Yu followed a few steps behind them, watching the three of them walking arm-in-arm.

With almost identical tall figures, walking side-by-side in the mall, they were the most beautiful sight.

Everywhere they went, they drew gasps of admiration.

An somewhat wicked thought couldn't help but pop into his mind.

When the time was right, this would be triple the pleasure.

Among the three sisters, only Pan Yuyao remained.

Cough, cough. He was thinking too much right now.

His main task now was to stop letting his mind wander.

Leaving the mall led right to the community gate. They returned to Binjiang Mansion and quickly tidied up.

After being out and returning, it was already late evening again.

Zhang Yu returned to his master bedroom on the second floor.

He turned on the 100-inch large television hanging in the bedroom.

There was a national team match tonight.

As a die-hard fan, he naturally had to watch.

Watching on a 100-inch screen truly felt amazing.

“Landlord!”

Just then, Lu Hanxiao's voice sounded from downstairs. “Why is the first-floor shower still broken?”

“I don't know. Just use the one on the second floor.”

Zhang Yu replied through the floor.

“The second floor?”

Hearing him say that, Lu Hanxiao snorted, “I suspect you're intentionally not fixing it.”
