335: A loss for the male model industry

Unable to resist the three's eager gazes, Ye Su had no choice but to offer a blank check:

"Alright, cut it out with that. If there are any suitable jobs in the future, I'll definitely save a spot for you all."

"Good brother!"

"Through hell and high water, Brother Su!"

"I'm calling home right now to tell my dad I'm transferring my household registration to your name!"

"Get lost."

After enduring a barrage of flattery from the three, Ye Su, at Lin Jingjie's suggestion, drove them out of school for a spin.

The four of them hadn't played billiards this semester.

After a round of driving, letting them experience the horsepower of the Lamborghini, they finally arrived at their usual billiard hall, booked a table, and started playing.

Buzz buzz—

While playing billiards, Ye Su's phone, which was placed on the side of the billiard table, suddenly vibrated twice.

He picked it up and saw that Li Mengyao had sent him a message.

[Li Mengyao: Are you free tonight?]

[Yes, why?]

[Li Mengyao: Good, I'll treat you to dinner tonight.]

Seeing that Li Mengyao was inviting him to dinner again, Ye Su guessed that she wanted to thank him for reminding her about Zhou Ruolan's embezzlement of public funds.

"I helped her family with such a big matter; she wouldn't be sending me something again, would she?"

[No problem, I have something to do this afternoon. I'll head over to your place after I'm done.]

[Li Mengyao: Not my place. I'll book a restaurant and treat you to dinner.]

"Treating me to dinner alone?"

"That works too."

Not having to go to her house for dinner meant he wouldn't have to act in front of Li Shanhai and his wife.

[Anything works. Send me the address. What time is dinner?]

[Li Mengyao: All you think about is food…]

After a short complaint, Li Mengyao sent him the location of a restaurant, clearly having chosen the place in advance.

Ye Su saw that the restaurant Li Mengyao chose was exactly the 'Good Wine Good Food' where Yan Ran had treated him to dinner last night.

"What a coincidence."

Ye Su guessed that Li Mengyao had specifically chosen this Chaoshan private kitchen because his hometown was Guying, so he could have a taste of home cooking.

However, having eaten there last night, Ye Su already knew that the Chaoshan cuisine at that restaurant was completely different from the home cooking he used to eat in his hometown.

[Li Mengyao: I've booked a private room for 6:30 PM. Is that okay with you?]

[No problem.]

After confirming the time and place, and seeing that Li Mengyao didn't reply again, Ye Su put down his phone and continued playing with the three.

Buzz buzz—

But after only two shots, his phone on the table vibrated again.

"Boss Ye, you're quite busy with your business. Even when playing billiards, your phone keeps ringing."

This time, Lin Jingjie didn't pick up on Jiang Zhibin's words but instead said to Ye Su with concern:

"If you have something, you can leave first. We can go back by ourselves later."

"It's nothing, probably just didn't make things clear earlier."

Thinking it was another message from Li Mengyao, Ye Su gestured for them to continue playing while picking up his phone.

However, he found that the message this time was from Yan Ran, with whom he had just had dinner last night.

[Yan Ran: What are you doing?]

[Nothing, playing billiards with a few roommates.]

[Yan Ran: Your life is good, no stress at all. You can go out and play with your roommates first thing in the morning, unlike me, who has to be busy from the moment I open my eyes until dark.]

[That's you being capable and hardworking, unlike me, who's indulging in frivolities.]

Yan Ran first sent two 'smirking' emojis, then stated the purpose of her contacting Ye Su this time.

[Yan Ran: I wonder if you're free tonight. I'd like to treat you to dinner again, as a thank you for helping me with the massage last night.]

She said it was to thank him for the massage last night, but how could Ye Su not know?

The rich lady was addicted to the 'Sleep Aid Service' and wanted him to continue providing it.

"I knew it. How could such a busy person casually chat with me for no reason?"

He had been certain all along that Yan Ran would definitely ask him again for help with her insomnia.

So, Ye Su was not at all surprised or taken aback by Yan Ran's renewed invitation to dinner.

However, he had just agreed to have dinner with Li Mengyao tonight, which caused a time conflict, leaving Ye Su unable to be in two places at once.

[Sister Ran says she's treating me to dinner, so I should normally be available on call.]

[But a friend has already booked my dinner time tonight.]

[If you don't mind, how about we have dinner together tomorrow night?]

"Ah, someone beat me to it!"

In the chairman's office of Yuexinhui, Yan Ran saw Ye Su's reply and frowned regretfully:

"I wish I had contacted him earlier!"

Ye Su had already said he had plans with someone tonight, so Yan Ran couldn't ask him to stand someone up just so she could get a good night's sleep.

The two had only just met yesterday; their relationship wasn't that close yet.

Although regretful, Yan Ran could only reply, giving up on having Ye Su serve her well again tonight.

[Yan Ran: Since you have plans, then let's forget about tonight.]

[Yan Ran: But your time tomorrow night has already been booked by me, so you can't stand your sister up.]

[Of course. I wouldn't stand up Sister Ran, no matter who else I might stand up.]

[Yan Ran: *smirking* *smirking*]

[Yan Ran: So it's settled then. I'll send you the location after I book the restaurant.]

[Okay.]

[Yan Ran: I won't disturb you and your roommates playing billiards.]

[Then I'll see you tomorrow night.]

[Yan Ran: See you tomorrow night.]

Having arranged another time with a rich lady, Ye Su felt like he was a male model navigating a group of rich women.

"A talent like me, not being a male model, is simply the greatest loss in the history of male modeling."

Seeing it was his turn to shoot again, Ye Su put down his phone and continued playing billiards with the three.

The four's lunch, of course, was again taken care of by Ye Su.

After playing at the billiard hall until past eleven, Ye Su took the three to a famous Japanese BBQ restaurant.

Wagyu beef paired with other grilled meats, the four of them spent over 1,500 yuan on Ye Su's tab for one meal.

Zeng Daming had said yesterday that he would be free in the afternoon, around 3 PM, to go to the rented apartment and help open the safe.

After finishing the BBQ, and seeing that it was about time, Ye Su dropped off his three satisfied roommates at school.

"Aren't you going to class this afternoon?"

"I have something to do later, so I won't be going to class."

"Alright."

Without Ye Su having to say anything, Lin Jingjie, whose stomach hadn't even finished digesting the BBQ, knew what he should do in class later.

Rumble rumble—

After dropping the three off, Ye Su revved the engine, and the Lamborghini left the school gate.

Watching the taillights of Ye Su's departing car, Jiang Zhibin exclaimed enviously:

"A Lamborghini, it's so damn cool!"

"If we were to calculate it by taxi fare, just those few rounds we drove, the fare would be several hundred, right?"

"Probably."

Jiang Zhibin and his two friends walked back into the school gate, feeling content, only to notice several classmates around them constantly scrutinizing them.

The three knew full well that they were being stared at by their classmates not because they were handsome, but because they had just gotten out of a Lamborghini.

Even so, it didn't stop the three from having a small burst of vanity, feeling like they were walking on air.
