335: Daisy Chen's Transformation

Seeing that Chen Daisy couldn't respond to his question for a while, Li Qinghe smiled and unbuckled his seatbelt:

"Alright, don't be so conflicted. This isn't something that needs an immediate solution. What's good to eat here? Take me to try it first, and later we'll go for a barbecue and beer."

Hearing Li Qinghe's plan, Chen Daisy and Emily both breathed a deep sigh of relief.

At this moment, they indeed felt a certain sense of frustration, especially Chen Daisy.

She had always prided herself on being an independent and capable modern woman, with outstanding looks and a hot figure. Apart from her family background, she had basically maxed out all her life's buffs.

Initially, she also wanted to achieve a free and easy life in the future through hard work.

However, as many Dragon Country billionaires brought large amounts of wealth to Singapore.

Although these people only brought wealth for investment.

Inevitably, they boosted the overall consumption level of Singapore.

The influence of these wealthy individuals on Singapore could be seen in the smallest details.

In the hawker centers of various HDB estates, it used to be that 2 to 3 singapore dollars were enough to fill one's stomach.

Now, to eat a full meal, that price is no longer sufficient; at least 5 singapore dollars are needed.

For larger food centers, the price would go straight to 7 to 8 singapore dollars.

Not to mention those exquisite restaurants.

But the problem is that while Singapore appears to have low taxes and is friendly to the wealthy.

However, there have been almost no successful investments by Dragon Country billionaires here.

In addition, due to the increased threshold for permanent residency in Singapore, it used to only require 10 million singapore dollars to open a family office here.

Now, this price has shot up to 100 million singapore dollars, and it's still not guaranteed to open.

Many smaller wealthy individuals with insufficient funds opted for the next best thing and started companies in Singapore.

The problem is that Singapore's overall area is limited, and its population is only about five to six million.

Making money locally in Singapore is extremely difficult.

Therefore, to truly make money, one can only base their headquarters in Singapore, while their main revenue-generating business lines are placed in the Dragon Country, Japan, or various Southeast Asia countries.

Many people struggled in Singapore for several years, only to find that their money was gone, and their goals were not achieved, leaving them fuming with anger.

More importantly, to combat online fraud, Singapore began to scrutinize the money transferred by wealthy individuals to Singapore.

Wealthy individuals initially transferred money to Singapore for its safety and confidentiality, expecting no intrusive questions.

However, now they have to resubmit relevant information every year, with authorities seemingly wanting to dig up details about 18 generations of their ancestors.

But the problem is that Singapore's approach has caused great resentment among these wealthy individuals.

A small number of online fraud parks also exist in Singapore.

The authorities do not question these fraud parks; instead, they relentlessly interrogate numerous foreign wealthy individuals.

Over time, the wealthy individuals voted with their feet, and now a large amount of wealth has been transferred from Singapore back to Hong Kong, Dragon Country.

After losing the title of Asia's financial center for several years, Hong Kong, Dragon Country, has finally reclaimed this title.

Now, in Hong Kong, Dragon Country, setting up a family office is simplified.

It is efficient, convenient, and secure.

These key factors have become the preferred wealth transfer points for many Asian wealthy individuals.

Facing a large amount of wealth being transferred out, Singapore's entire economic development momentum suddenly suffered a setback.

This directly led to a significant impact on the lives of many ordinary people.

In such an environment, Chen Daisy found that her previous path seemed difficult to follow.

So, one day, after a hard day's work, while she and Emily were relaxing at a bar.

She suddenly thought of taking a shortcut.

At this time, Emily was also a young unemployed woman who had recently graduated and was anxiously waiting for a company to arrange her employment.

The waiting days were not easy.

So, after Chen Daisy proposed the idea, she somewhat reluctantly went along with it.

She originally thought Chen Daisy was just joking.

Because Chen Daisy had always been the most independent and self-reliant girl in their small circle.

Emily never thought that Chen Daisy would resolutely take this path.

Unexpectedly, from that day on, Chen Daisy really started seriously collecting information about young wealthy individuals.

She often dragged Emily to compare relevant conditions.

But the problem is, it's said that wealthy individuals are a scarce resource, and young wealthy individuals are even rarer.

Chen Daisy was arrogant and had high standards, and she was also a genuine 'face-dog,' completely disregarding ordinary old wealthy individuals.

However, reality was very cruel; she couldn't even get close to the young wealthy individuals she desired.

Therefore, the act of finding young wealthy individuals to 'extract gold' was completely impossible to implement.

Chen Daisy was persistent, fighting despite repeated failures.

During the process, she was not spared from setbacks by reality and brainwashing by old men.

She almost wavered in her beliefs and became the new favorite of a 50-something old man.

In the end, it was Chen Daisy's 'face-dog' attribute that saved her. Unable to tolerate big bellies and wrinkled faces, Chen Daisy promptly escaped from that old man's secret garden.

After that, Chen Daisy was depressed for a while, but soon rekindled her motivation and continued her search for young wealthy individuals.

However, with limited resources around her, it was difficult to find targets that met her criteria.

And at this moment, a ray of light entered Chen Daisy's life.

Emily got a job, and the boss of her new company was exactly the type of handsome man Emily found attractive. More importantly, this boss was also very wealthy and very considerate towards Emily.

So Emily couldn't help but show off to Chen Daisy, but initially, Emily hadn't thought in that direction.

Because she knew the gap in their social standing was too great.

But unexpectedly, her shared content sparked Chen Daisy's intense interest.

So, on the night Emily started her new job, she invited Emily to a bar to discuss a grand plan.

Coincidentally, they ran into Emily's new boss.

The moment Li Qinghe waved hello.

Chen Daisy had an impulse that he was the one.

Subsequent developments were very smooth.

Until Chen Daisy sat in Li Qinghe's passenger seat, she thought that with her looks and figure, it would be as simple as a snap of her fingers.

But she didn't expect to be hit with a head-on blow by Li Qinghe.

What she prided herself on was nothing extraordinary to Li Qinghe.

Seeing Li Qinghe unbuckle his seatbelt, Chen Daisy almost felt that she, along with Emily, was less appealing to Li Qinghe than a delicious dish at the food court.

Even though frustration enveloped her, Chen Daisy still closely followed Li Qinghe out of the car, pulling Emily along to catch up with him.

Since Li Qinghe said this matter was paused for further discussion, then it could only be discussed later.

Chen Daisy also knew that accompanying Li Qinghe to the food court was a rare opportunity to enhance their mutual understanding.

So, with good judgment, she began to introduce the features of the Lau Pa Sat Food Centre to Li Qinghe.

Lau Pa Sat Food Centre is divided into two areas: indoor and outdoor.

The indoor area is like a concentrated food hub, similar to Maxwell Food Centre.

After renovation, the Victorian-style dome looks very beautiful and grand visually.

Looking at the dazzling array of food stalls.

Chen Daisy racked her brain trying to think of something special to eat.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she jogged over to Li Qinghe: "My dear, have you ever tried Chwee Kueh? It's a traditional Dragon Country delicacy."
