Old Yuan started, then walked over with a smile. "Master."
Looking at Old Man Yuan, Chu Hao said, "Old man, you’re quite rich. I wouldn’t have guessed."
Old Yuan, caught between laughter and tears, said, "Master, you’re joking. It’s all small money."
The reason he bid so high was to please Chu Hao. Besides, those items were indeed worth that much.
Many wealthy businessmen also came over, offering polite words and curiously sizing up Chu Hao.
A successful businessman approached with a smile. "Little Master, do you have any other Magic Artifacts? I’d like to purchase some."
Why didn’t you act sooner?
Chu Hao, growing impatient, waved a hand and said, "No."
I now have one hundred and sixty million; why would I care about your little bit of money?
The businessman felt awkward, a twinge of irritation stirring within him. What’s so great about him anyway?
Just then, Master Long Yuan came over and asked, "Master, do you have any coffins left?"
The businessman was shocked. Master Long Yuan is addressing Chu Hao as ’Master’? Did I hear that right?
Chu Hao gave him a sideways glance. "You want to buy one for yourself?"
His words sounded so awkward, like someone who wasn’t dead yet asking to buy a coffin. Yet, Master Long Yuan nodded, somewhat embarrassed.
Chu Hao waved his hand. "I do have them, but you’ll have to wait. One day, when I’m in a good mood, bring the money and find me."
"DING... The Host has succeeded in acting pretentious and gained 20 Pretentiousness Points."
The businessman felt slightly comforted. At least he wasn’t the only one to be rejected; even Master Long Yuan had been turned away.
Master Long Yuan felt helpless. He held a high social status, and very few people dared to speak to him like that.
However, seeing how polite Old Yuan was to Chu Hao, he didn’t dare to say things like, "Give it to me now!" or "I’ll shower you with money!"
Elder Yuan said, "Master, I’d like to invite you to the Twin Towers Building for a visit. It won’t take too much of your time."
Chu Hao considered it. After they had offered such a high price for the coffin, refusing their invitation now would clearly be disrespectful.
However, he’d promised Mu Yufei he would take her out to dinner. Just thinking about dining together gets me so excited. What fun would there be in going with an old man?
"Some other time, I’m busy today," Chu Hao said.
Disappointed, Old Yuan left his business card. "If you have time, please do visit. Here’s my card."
Taking the card, Chu Hao said, "Alright, I need to go home now. No need to see me off."
He strode away. He really disliked these gatherings of wealthy businessmen; every one of them had previously looked down their noses at people.
After he left, a red Maserati appeared before him. Mu Yufei smiled. "Ah-Hao, get in."
Chu Hao got into the car; luxury cars were indeed comfortable. I should get my driver’s license and buy one someday. "Where are we heading?" he asked.
"Of course, to eat you."
Holy shit!! Isn’t that a bit too thrilling? She wants to eat me?
Chu Hao blushed a little. "Sister Yu Fei, I’m still a virgin! Can you be a bit gentler?"
Mu Yufei gave him a reproachful look, her cheeks turning red. "What are you thinking? You’ve earned so much money; don’t you want to treat your big sister to a meal?"
Chu Hao waved his hand, full of nouveau riche bravado. "No problem, order whatever you want."
At that moment, his phone rang. It was Mu Yuxun.
Seemingly angry, Mu Yuxun asked, "Chu Hao, where did you go?"
Mu Yuxun had lost sight of Chu Hao for a moment, and her sister had disappeared too. She had an inkling of what had happened.
Chu Hao sounded displeased. "Campus Belle, why are you tracking my movements? Can’t I go home and sleep?"
On the other end, Mu Yuxun’s imposing manner noticeably softened. "Okay then."
Shortly after, Mu Yufei’s phone rang. It was clearly Mu Yuxun.
Mu Yuxun: "Sister! Where are you?"
Mu Yufei: "Something came up at the company. I need to head back for a bit."
Mu Yuxun: "But! I saw Chu Hao get into your car."
Mu Yufei: "You must have been mistaken. I left a few minutes earlier and am almost at the company now. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up."
This big sister is really something!
Chu Hao swallowed hard, then asked excitedly, "Sister Yu Fei, where are we going to eat? Just the two of us?"
"Shixiang Pavilion. It would be too dull with just the two of us, so I’m inviting a friend," Mu Yufei said as she picked up her phone and made a call.
No way! Having a third wheel is just awful.
Chu Hao felt somewhat dejected.
"Qinglian, where are you? Uh-huh... Come to Shixiang Pavilion for dinner."
After hanging up, Mu Yufei smiled. "Ah-Hao, there’s actually something I’d like your help with."
Chu Hao was gloomy. So Sister Yufei invited me to dinner because she needed something, not for the reasons I’d imagined.
Mu Yufei said, "It’s about a friend of mine, the one I just called. I suspect she might be troubled by ’unclean things,’ and I want you to take a look for her."
Chu Hao remained gloomy. "Oh."
Mu Yufei asked, "Why do you seem unhappy?"
Isn’t it obvious? I thought it would be a romantic evening, but now there’s a third wheel.
Mu Yufei laughed softly. "You little rascal, if you help your big sister out, there’ll be a reward, you know."
Chu Hao perked up and hurriedly asked, "What reward?"
Mu Yufei acted mysterious. "You’ll find out when the time comes."
Chu Hao’s curiosity was burning. He pressed, "I want to know now, or I won’t help."
Mu Yufei’s face turned a shy red. She was breathtakingly beautiful, enough to topple nations. "If you help, your big sister will give you a kiss."
Chu Hao’s eyes lit up mischievously. "You said it, not me."
This was Anli City’s most famous restaurant, renowned for its dishes that encompassed all flavors, truly a high-end establishment.
Chu Hao finally understood what it meant for the wealthy to dine out.
The private dining area spanned over three hundred square meters, complete with rockeries, streams, ancient pines, and more. Stepping into the room felt like being immersed in nature, as if dining in the mountains.
Mu Yufei said, "Ah-Hao, you should be prepared. The dishes here are quite expensive."
Chu Hao patted his wallet. "I have a hundred million."
Mu Yufei giggled. "Alright then."
Soon, Mu Yufei’s friend arrived. Entering the luxurious private room, her graceful figure was revealed, rivaling Mu Yufei’s. Although she wore a mask, her clear eyes shone with vivacity.
Indeed, when the woman removed her mask, a stunning face was revealed, captivating everyone’s attention.
Her exquisite features, reminiscent of someone of mixed heritage, possessed a unique and striking beauty. Her skin was fine and fair, like condensed sheep’s milk, or perhaps like transparent, crystal-colored grapes—so clear and delicate that one couldn’t bear to look too closely, fearing their gaze might pierce her cheeks.
Furthermore, her round, smooth shoulders accentuated her curvaceous figure. Her arms were as tender as lotus roots, and her waist was as slender as a water snake.
Most astonishing were her long legs, so white they seemed to reflect light, dazzling to behold and making one’s mouth go dry at a mere glance.
Utterly white. She was a true kingdom-toppling beauty.
