4: Chapter 4 Are you a rich second-generation?

"Mr. Su?"

Chu Yi paused for a moment, then turned to look at the dining table.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Su Bai.

Su Bai stood up and walked over:

"That's me."

The man in the suit immediately bowed slightly and handed over a paper bag with both hands:

"Mr. Su, these are the clothes and slippers you ordered online just now. As per your request, we have delivered them via express service."

"Just leave them at the door," Su Bai said casually.

"Very well."

The man in the suit placed the paper bag gently at the entryway and respectfully handed over a business card,

"This is our shop's contact information. If you have any further needs, please don't hesitate to ask."

"Thank you."

After seeing the man in the suit off, just as Su Bai was about to close the door, Chu Yi had already curiously squatted down to look at the items in the paper bag.

"Wow, Xiao Bai, you bought new clothes? Let me see..."

She rummaged through the bag, and suddenly her eyes widened.

"Wait, these slippers... Louis Vuitton?!"

She pulled out a pair of dark brown slippers, the familiar LV monogram standing out prominently under the lights.

Chu Yi turned them over and over, then suddenly burst into a giggle:

"Xiao Bai, I didn't expect you to be so obsessed with appearances, even buying a knockoff Louis Vuitton!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than the man in the suit, who had already reached the elevator, suddenly turned around, walked back with a serious expression, and stood at the door, saying solemnly:

"Miss, we are the most legitimate channel provider in the city, an officially authorized dealer for Louis Vuitton. It is absolutely impossible for us to provide any counterfeit goods to the distinguished Mr. Su!"

His voice wasn't loud, but every word was clear and firm.

Chu Yi's smile froze on her face.

The man in the suit bowed slightly to Su Bai again:

"Mr. Su, sorry to disturb you. Have a pleasant life."

This time, he really left.

The door closed.

There was dead silence in the living room.

Everyone's eyes fell on the slippers Chu Yi was holding in her hand, then slowly shifted to Su Bai's face.

Chu Yi swallowed hard, carefully put the slippers back into the paper bag, and laughed dryly:

"Ha... haha, so they're real..."

Luo Ying was also stunned. She walked over, picked up the slippers, and took a look—the price on the tag was clearly printed:

¥12,800!

Five-figure slippers!

Luo Ying's fingers trembled, and she nearly dropped the slippers.

Lin Qiaoyou also curiously leaned in to look at the price, gasped, and instinctively covered her small mouth.

Chu Xiang raised an eyebrow, looking at Su Bai thoughtfully.

Song Qian's expression remained indifferent, but a trace of imperceptible surprise flashed in her eyes before she returned to her calm demeanor.

Su Bai walked over calmly, took the slippers out of the paper bag, put them on, and picked up the other bags:

"I'll go put these things in my room first."

He walked into the north bedroom and closed the door.

In the living room, the five girls looked at each other.

Chu Yi finally couldn't hold back and lowered her voice:

"Sister Luo Ying, what exactly is your brother's background? Wearing five-figure slippers?!"

Luo Ying shook her head blankly:

"I don't know... I remember Uncle Su was just an ordinary employee..."

"An ordinary employee family buying LV slippers for their son?"

Chu Yi gestured exaggeratedly,

"The slippers alone are over ten thousand, and I saw a few pieces of clothing in there! That must be many tens of thousands, right?!"

"Maybe..."

Lin Qiaoyou said softly,

"Maybe it's his own money?"

"But where would he get so much money?"

Chu Xiang analyzed rationally,

"Unless..."

The girls looked at each other, a conjecture simultaneously forming in their minds.

Song Qian suddenly stood up and walked towards the kitchen: "The soup should be ready. I'll go serve it."

Her voice betrayed no emotion, but her back appeared somewhat stiff.

Luo Ying looked at Su Bai's tightly closed door, her mind in a mess.

This brother who grew up with her seems to have suddenly become a stranger.

Inside the room, Su Bai threw the plastic bags from his feet into the trash can, put on the newly bought slippers, and walked out.

When he came out, the eyes of the four beauties all turned to his feet.

He walked to the dining table with composure,

"Um... I don't know how much the rent is here per month. Is 20,000 enough?"

"Clang!"

Chu Yi's chopsticks fell to the floor.

She didn't bother with them, wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, and said exaggeratedly,

"Where would it be that much? Our annual rent here is only 40,000 yuan!"

Su Bai waved his hand dismissively,

"Consider the extra as food expenses."

Luo Ying couldn't help but speak up,

"Xiao Bai, where did you get so much money? Did Uncle Su give it to you?"

Su Bai was silent for a while.

"You could say that."

After all, his principal was given by his father.

As for the money later, it was earned from the principal anyway.

Rounding it off, his money could be considered given by his father.

Chu Yi exclaimed,

"So you're a rich second generation!"

She raised her head with a beaming smile, adjusted her chest, and whispered,

"Little brother Xiao Bai, do you need a girlfriend~"

She secretly pointed at her sister Chu Xiang,

"Buy one get one free~"

Her voice seemed very stealthy, but in reality, everyone heard it clearly.

"Chu! Yi!!"

Chu Xiang grabbed her ear and said in shame and anger,

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

Buy one get one free, indeed!

Aren't you embarrassed!

"Sorry, my sister is a bit crazy." Chu Xiang apologized with a blushing face.

Su Bai smiled,

"It's okay, Sister Chu Yi is very cute."

At this moment, the silent Song Qian spoke up again,

"No need for 20,000. We'll calculate it per person, 666 yuan a month. If you want to eat at home, you can buy your own ingredients."

Su Bai was stunned and instinctively looked at Luo Ying.

The latter coughed dryly and said softly,

"Yes, let's just stick to the rules."

"Everyone stop staring, let's eat quickly, the food will get cold soon."

The four girls and one man finally started eating.

Chu Yi excitedly raised a glass of orange juice and said happily,

"Come on! Let's all welcome our new member, Xiao Bai!"

Luo Ying and Chu Xiang raised their glasses with smiles.

Although Song Qian didn't show much expression, she didn't spoil the mood and gently clinked her glass with everyone's.

Su Bai said: "Very happy to meet all of you sisters. I hope we can get along well in the future."

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!!"

Luo Ying's cooking was very good and was highly praised by everyone.

They drank and chatted about interesting things at school. Su Bai sat there quietly, acting as a qualified observer.

Saying a word or two from time to time, providing sufficient emotional value.

Luo Ying had specially made a lot of dishes, but the girls had very small appetites and basically put down their chopsticks after a few bites.

Fortunately, Su Bai was tall and had a big appetite, so most of the food ended up in his stomach.

After eating, the twin sisters, Chu Xiang and Chu Yi, took the initiative to take on the dishwashing.

Song Qian went straight back to her bedroom.

Luo Ying stretched, her S-shaped curves fully exposed in front of Su Bai.

She suddenly thought of something and asked,

"Xiao Bai, did you also forget to bring toiletries?"

Su Bai nodded,

"I traveled light this time. My luggage should arrive tomorrow; my toiletries and clothes are all in there."

Luo Ying thought for a moment and said with a slightly reddened face,

"Then you can use... mine first. I'll send them over to you after I'm done."

"But you can't use my toothbrush. I have mouthwash, just make do with that for now."

Su Bai: "Thank you, Sister."

"Oh, right."

Luo Ying raised an eyebrow and said with a serious expression,

"Our apartment has two bathrooms, one in the master bedroom and one that is shared."

"I sleep in the master bedroom, and that bathroom is basically only used by me. The three of them all use the public bathroom."

She said with a somewhat conflicted expression,

"You... should knock on the door when you're showering or using the toilet."

"Or... if someone is inside, and you're in a rush, you can... come to my bedroom."

Then she added,

"Make sure you remember to knock."
