30: Chapter 30 Cloud Private Club
"Sister Ying, you're so humble. The top floor of the Cloud End private club, and a private room that's never been open to the public... and you're calling it ordinary?" Xi Yutang looked at her with admiration.
"Stop it, let's go. I'm taking you all to book out the whole place today."
After breakfast, the group headed to the Lanting Shopping Mall.
"By the way, Xi Yan, do you have any reliable friends in the real estate industry in Shanghai?"
Xia Yang was studying in Shanghai, so the company would definitely be opened there.
"There is one candidate in Shanghai, and that's Fu Sheng." Xi Yan was processing official business on his computer. Hearing her call his name, his hand movements paused for a moment.
Then he gave his choice.
"Fu Sheng? The current head of the Fu Family who stepped over everyone else in the family in Shanghai?"
Fugui had mentioned the name Fu Sheng to her yesterday.
This child was also a pitiful person; those people didn't deserve to be his family.
Gao Ying was an orphan in her original world, and she had never thought about looking for her so-called relatives.
She was actually cold to the core; someone she would risk her life for had never appeared.
Fugui: [You can only say that because you've lost your memory. In other worlds, you died over and over again for those men, dying in all sorts of tragic ways.]
[But it was also to complete system missions. To die sooner, you used every means possible.]
[You were thinking about returning to your own world with 100 billion after the missions were done.]
[Now look what happened. Because those men couldn't stand your death,]
[they somehow banded together, intercepted me, and won't let you go back to your original world.]
[Knowing you love money, they forcibly turned me from a quick-transmigration system into a tycoon system.]
Of course, Fugui didn't dare say this out loud and could only think it in its heart.
At the beginning, Fugui had also lost a portion of its memory and only thought it was a tycoon system from a higher-level planet.
Back then, it ambitiously wanted Gao Ying to enjoy the company of many men. It was only after Yin Lin appeared that it remembered the past.
When its memory first returned, Fugui was quite shocked, but it quickly accepted it. After all, those men were all top-tier individuals.
It was actually quite good to be detached from the main system; it could do whatever it wanted.
However, thinking about how those men were all recruited by his sister, the thought of that chaotic scene was quite exciting.
"Yes. I wonder what kind of house Little Ying wants to buy in Shanghai? Don't tell me you still want to buy a lou king?" Xi Yan raised an eyebrow at her.
"A lou king isn't out of the question, but there's no rush for that. Regarding that Xia Yang from last night, he's a computer major and intends to start a company. I plan to invest."
"So I'm planning to buy an entire building for the company," Gao Ying explained.
"Little Ying Ying, why don't you support me instead? This is too grand a gesture—buying an entire building for a company for someone you haven't even met yet."
"I'm truly moved." Lou Jingyao dramatically clutched his heart, looking at her with deep affection.
Gao Ying crossed her arms and looked him up and down. After a moment of thought, she gave her conclusion: "Hmm, although you look like a heartless playboy who leaves a trail of broken hearts everywhere,"
"your heart is actually quite pure, and you're still a virgin. For the sake of your handsome face, this Princess will reluctantly support you."
"Then I truly thank Little Ying Ying for the support. I don't want much, just a hundred million in pocket money." Lou Jingyao's phoenix eyes narrowed with laughter.
Gao Ying didn't say a word and tapped away on her phone. Soon, a broadcast sounded in the car.
[Alipay has received 100 million yuan.]
"Pfft, cough, cough! No, you're serious? I was joking!" Lou Jingyao's eyes widened as he looked at the smiling person across from him.
"Oh, really? But as the head of the family, I've always been a woman of my word. When the time comes, I'll personally go to the Lou Family to propose marriage." Gao Ying looked at him with a very serious expression.
"No, I just have a big mouth."
Slap! Slap!
"Can't I just punish myself?"
"Miss Gao, Your Highness, please spare me." Lou Jingyao pretended to slap his own mouth.
"You really don't know what's good for you. To have my Princess personally go to propose marriage is such a great honor."
"You should know that to enter the Langhuan Gao Residence family, one has to go through layers of tests."
"Especially as the Princess's other half, one must pass the tests of the elders."
"However, since the Princess is personally proposing, the elders won't make it too hard; it'll just be a formality."
Yin Ren leaned over from the passenger seat and sized him up, then informed him of how difficult it was to be Gao Ying's other half.
"Brother, for the sake of the family, just give in to Ying Ying. I'm sure Mom and Dad would be willing."
Lou Jingyao was about to say something when Lou Zhiwei covered his mouth.
He looked at his beloved sister in disbelief, his eyes full of accusation.
"Sister Ying, although Brother Jingyao is still a virgin, he has quite a history of affairs outside. Look at my brother; he's been single since birth and has no other women around him. He's definitely the perfect choice for a partner." Xi Yutang desperately recommended her own brother.
"Xi Yutang!" Xi Yan looked up and gave her a faint glance.
Yutang immediately became like a deflated balloon, looking dejected.
"Little Ying, do you need me to contact Fu Sheng, or will you contact him yourself?" Xi Yan asked.
"You know him, so I'll have you help me contact him."
Xi Yan nodded and dialed Fu Sheng's number. After two rings, a deep voice came from the other end. "What made you think to contact me?"
"I wouldn't visit unless I had a reason. A friend of mine wants to buy a building. Do you have any resources on your end?"
"An entire building? Young Master Xi's friend is truly generous. I don't have one on hand, but I can help you get one. Let's meet and talk." Fu Sheng thought of the scene when Xi Yan left yesterday, his eyes full of interest.
A woman who could enter the throne of the Ding Tian Auction House—he really wanted to meet her.
Xi Yan had the speakerphone on, and everyone in the car heard their conversation.
Seeing him look over, Gao Ying nodded.
"Fine, let's meet at 12 noon in the Cloud Private Room at Cloud End."
The phone call ended just as the car stopped at the mall entrance.
Entering the mall, Gao Ying took them directly to the jade and jewelry store. "I heard from Yutang that your mother's birthday is coming up. I wonder what she likes?"
"Since we're already friends, it should be okay to give a gift, right?"
"Of course. My mother is quite interested in unique art pieces." Xi Yan didn't refuse her gift.
"Good, I've noted it down. I'll definitely give Auntie a surprise when the time comes."
"Please wrap everything up, except for these five pairs of cufflinks."
"Certainly. Miss Gao, please wait in the VIP room. We will pack them as quickly as possible." The shop assistant at the jewelry store couldn't stop smiling.
"I'm at the jewelry store on the first floor. Bring your store's new arrivals over."
"And have the other shops come over too." Gao Ying sent a message to Yin Xiang.
"Ah! Manager, Miss Gao sent a message asking us to take the new arrivals to the first floor!" Yin Xiang received the message and cried out in excitement.
The manager was startled by her cry, but upon hearing the rest, she immediately had the available shop assistants start moving.
Knowing that Gao Ying had also asked other shops to come, she posted a message in the group chat.
[Miss Gao is at the jewelry store on the first floor. Everyone, bring your best goods over.]
[Thanks, Sister Zhao! Big red envelope!]
[Thanks for the notice, Sister Zhao! Red envelope!]
After the managers in the group thanked her, they hurried their staff to take their best items downstairs.
