Chapter 174: Chapter 174: What Did You Promise
Last Night?_1
Eleven raised up her card with a grin, "What’s the matter, it’s not like it’s my money being spent!" She then turned to the others, smiling again, "Order whatever you want today. After our al, we’re going to get a SPA session and sauna. Play how you like, Mr. Gu is paying the bill!"
Cheers erupted from the group.
To Ye Fei, Eleven seed unusually extravagant today.
In the past, even when spending Gu Liancheng’s money, she would not be this wasteful, but today... she opted for nothing but the best, even ordering bottles of red wine costing tens of thousands each.
A table filled with exotic delicacies and bottles of extrely pricey red wine left everyone, except the unfazed Ye Fei, the accustod-to-luxury Eleven, and the striving-to-stay-calm Xu Weiyu, dumbstruck. They stared in disbelief at the spread before them.
"El...Eleven.... isn’t this a bit too extravagant? You’ve ordered it like..."
"Don’t worry," Eleven replied with a small smile, "Mr. Gu’s card is mine to use as I please, you guys don’t hold back."
"Hypocrite!" Xu Weiyu could no longer hold herself back. She stood up frustrated and stord off.
"Hey Xiaoyu--" her friend wanted to follow her, but was too tempted by the food on the table. She finally swallowed her saliva and sat back down, "Well, Xiaoyu’s just like that. Let’s not bother about her. Let’s continue eating."
"Yeah, let’s not bother about Xiaoyu. She’s got a bad temper."
"It’s only because of you, Eleven, that we get to eat all this. Otherwise, this wine, that’s thousands a bottle... We’d go bankrupt... No, no, I must try a few bits."
The atmosphere at the table was fairly harmonious. Everyone seed to have forgotten all the nasty things they had previously said about Eleven. Ye Fei was amazed and leaned over to whisper in Eleven’s ear, "If I were a new student who had just transferred here, I would think they were your close friends..."
"Get used to it," Eleven patted Ye Fei’s shoulder and whispered, "Keep their mouths full and they’ll shut up. It’s not a bad thing. As my husband often said, ’problems that can be solved with money are not problems.’"
"Wow!" Ye Fei stared at her, laughing hard, "That’s power! That’s the spirit!"
Eleven just smiled and said nothing.
They, the less well-off, could not afford to play this ga.
"Hey, I heard you guys are leaving tomorrow." Eleven asked.
"Yeah. And you two? Are you going to stay on? I would like to stay a few more days... But unlike you, if we delay our return by a few days, we have to pay for our accommodation, air tickets, and everything else!"
"I’ve had enough fun. I’ll leave with you guys tomorrow," Eleven laughed.
Tomorrow would be Friday. Jiujiu was holding a parent-teacher eting on Saturday. From what Su Bai had said, it seed like Gu Liancheng would not be back in Xicheng until next Monday because of a delayed flight.
Thinking about this, Eleven couldn’t help but wonder, did he delay his flight because of that girl?
"Ah... Oh..." They rembered the scene they had just witnessed, and all fell silent.
Eleven understood what they were thinking but said nothing. Instead, she poured herself a glass of red wine, raised it and said, "Co on, let’s drink! This wine isn’t cheap, we shouldn’t waste it, right?"
Suddenly, the girls across from her looked as if they had seen a ghost.
"What’s wrong with you guys? Drink up. Even if it’s not cheap, you can still drink it, right? Don’t worry, they can’t overcharge my card, I secured it here. If you don’t drink, should I drink it on your behalf?"
Of course, Eleven never really got to drink.
A hand reached over from behind her, grabbing her wrist.
As Ye Fei followed the hand with her eyes, she almost spit her mouthful of wine all over Gu Liancheng’s suit. No wonder they reacted so oddly!
Gu Liancheng’s presence alone seed to lower the ambient pressure. Looking at Eleven, he asked, "What did you promise
last night?"
