…
[Ding! The lottery draw has ended. Congratulations, host, on winning 6.66 million yuan. Current Emotional Points remaining: 300.]
Chen Hao’s heart leaped with joy.
It directly gave him money?
Sure enough, this really was a Tycoon System.
At least the “Hao” in his name was not going to waste.
Winning 6.66 million yuan from a single lottery draw felt absolutely incredible.
“Wait for me, Chen Hao. I haven’t eaten dinner either, so let’s keep each other company and go out to eat together.”
Ye Jia hurried after him.
If she had not recently bought a set of cosmetics worth more than 5,000 yuan and nearly emptied her wallet, there was no way she would have gone out to eat with Chen Hao.
“Sure. Let’s go together.”
Chen Hao agreed without even thinking about it.
In his eyes, Ye Jia was now basically a tool for farming Emotional Points.
…
After they went downstairs, Ye Jia was surprised to see Chen Hao booking a premium ride online. “Chen Hao, aren’t we just going to find a restaurant nearby?”
Chen Hao smiled. “What good food is there around here?”
The moment he finished speaking, he noticed that the Emotion Entry above Ye Jia’s head had changed.
[Current Emotional State: He’s taking me somewhere nice to eat? Looks like Chen Hao likes me and wants to pursue me. Hehe, I’m just too charming.]
[Ding! Host has obtained 200 Emotional Points from Ye Jia. Current Emotional Points: 500!]
He liked her?
Hehe.
Ye Jia really was full of herself.
Like you, my ass.
I just want to farm more Emotional Points from you.
Then again, he really was somewhat attracted to Ye Jia’s body.
If an opportunity ever came along, hehe…
“Chen Hao, what are we eating tonight?” Ye Jia asked as they walked.
“What do you want to eat?”
“Hmm…”
Ye Jia thought for a moment before replying, “I want seafood.”
She had not eaten seafood in almost a month.
You like me, right?
Then letting me enjoy a seafood dinner at your expense shouldn’t be too much to ask.
“Sure. Let’s have seafood. I happen to be craving it too,” Chen Hao said.
“Chen Hao, when I say seafood, I mean things like abalone, sea urchin, and caviar.”
Ye Jia was worried that Chen Hao might take her to some cheap roadside restaurant for clams or crayfish, so she tactfully reminded him what she meant.
“Okay, no problem.”
Chen Hao agreed without the slightest hesitation.
The 6.66 million yuan he had just won from the lottery had already been deposited into his account.
With more than 6 million yuan in his pocket, why would he take Ye Jia somewhere to eat cheap seafood?
Even if Ye Jia did not mind, he would.
Now that he had money, of course he wanted to eat the kind of premium seafood he normally could never bring himself to spend money on.
“Chen Hao, that kind of seafood isn’t cheap. Don’t suddenly get stingy when it’s time to pay.”
Ye Jia smiled with a rather smug expression.
She, Ye Jia, was not an easy woman to win over.
If a man was unwilling to spend money on her, then there was no chance.
“No matter how expensive it is, it’s still just one seafood dinner. It’s not like I can’t afford it.”
Chen Hao gave her a humorless smile.
He had known Ye Jia for so long. How could he possibly not understand why she had suddenly decided to join him for dinner?
She simply wanted a free meal.
Ye Jia had done things like this plenty of times before.
However, he was no longer the old Chen Hao.
She wanted to freeload?
It would not be that easy anymore.
Not long after they left the residential complex, the premium ride Chen Hao had booked arrived.
Half an hour later, they reached a bustling street.
After getting out of the car and walking for another five minutes, the two arrived outside a restaurant with an English name.
The moment Ye Jia saw the restaurant, she froze. Then she reminded him, “Chen Hao, this is one of the top three upscale seafood buffet restaurants in Magic City. It costs 3,888 yuan per person. Are you sure we’re eating seafood here tonight?”
She was worried that Chen Hao did not even know what kind of restaurant this was.
If he could not afford the bill when it was time to pay, she would be utterly humiliated.
“It’s fine. It’s not that expensive.”
Chen Hao spoke with the casual confidence of someone who did not lack money.
Hearing this, a radiant smile immediately blossomed across Ye Jia’s face.
Even she had never eaten at such an expensive top-tier buffet before.
She had never expected that although Chen Hao was poor, he would actually be willing to spend so much money just to pursue her.
As far as she knew, Chen Hao had dated Lin Pinru for half a year and had never once brought her to such an upscale restaurant.
If Lin Pinru found out that Chen Hao had brought her to a top-tier seafood buffet costing 3,888 yuan per person tonight, she would probably completely lose it.
Hehe.
In the end, I’m still more attractive than Lin Pinru.
Their faces might be equally beautiful.
But when it came to their figures, Ye Jia definitely won.
Men won people over with billions.
She won people over with her E-cups.
[Ding! Host has obtained 200 Emotional Points from Ye Jia. Current Emotional Points: 700!]
In an excellent mood, Ye Jia took the initiative to wrap her arm around Chen Hao’s and said happily, “All right, Chen Hao. Let’s go inside.”
Since Chen Hao was treating her to a top-tier seafood buffet, she did not mind giving him a little reward.
Chen Hao immediately felt his arm sink into something incredibly soft.
His heart stirred.
Out of respect, he secretly stood at attention.
With Ye Jia clinging to his arm, Chen Hao walked into the top-tier seafood buffet restaurant before them.
At that moment, the two looked as intimate as a young couple.
A server led them to a table beside the window, where they sat down.
“Golden caviar, sea urchin sashimi platter, New Zealand scampi sashimi, Gillardeau No. 0 oyster sashimi, golden threadfin bream, king crab…”
Ye Jia excitedly ordered a large assortment of premium seafood that she had always wanted to eat but could never bring herself to spend money on.
Before long, everything they had ordered was brought to their table.
Looking at the entire table covered with delicious seafood, Chen Hao’s mouth watered.
He picked up a spoon and was just about to scoop up some golden caviar when Ye Jia reached out and stopped him.
“Don’t touch anything yet. I haven’t taken photos.”
After giving Chen Hao an annoyed look, Ye Jia took out her iPhone 14 Pro, opened the camera, and began snapping photo after photo of the seafood covering the table.
“All right, Chen Hao. You can eat now.”
The moment he heard that, Chen Hao immediately dug in.
Ye Jia, however, did not start eating right away. Instead, she first posted on WeChat Moments.
She uploaded a nine-photo collage.
The caption read, “I’ve been so busy lately. Finally managed to find some time to check in at Suigiid Restaurant.”
Afterward, Ye Jia sent the photos to her close friends’ group chat as well.
The previously quiet group immediately became lively.
Hu Xueyi wrote, “Suigiid Restaurant at 3,888 yuan per person? Damn, Jiajia, did you land a huge sale recently?”
Zhou Dan wrote, “I’ve wanted to check out this restaurant for ages. So jealous!”
Ye Jia replied, “Someone else brought me here. If I had to pay for it myself, there’s no way I’d spend this much on a seafood buffet.”
Hu Xueyi asked, “Someone else is treating you? A man or a woman?”
Ye Jia replied, “A man.”
Zhou Dan wrote, “Well, well. Something’s definitely going on here.”
Lin Pinru asked, “Jiajia, do you have a boyfriend now?”
Ye Jia replied, “No. He’s pursuing me, but I haven’t agreed yet.”
Zhou Dan wrote, “He’s treating you to such an expensive seafood buffet? Jiajia, he must be rich. Is he a rich second-generation heir?”
Hu Xueyi wrote, “Jiajia, hurry up and take a few photos of him so we can have a look.”
Ye Jia secretly glanced at Chen Hao, who was busy eating meat from a king crab leg.
She immediately decided that she definitely could not take his picture.
Lin Pinru was in the group chat.
If Lin Pinru saw that the man treating her to such an expensive seafood dinner was actually Chen Hao, what would she think of Ye Jia?
Besides, Chen Hao was just a poor loser.
All of her close friends knew him.
Even if Ye Jia wanted to show off, she would not be able to.
So Ye Jia typed, “No photos for now. After all, our relationship isn’t official yet. I need to respect his privacy. 🙂”
Zhou Dan replied, “Come on, send one. I won’t steal your rich boyfriend. 🤭”
Ye Jia replied, “I’ll send one after our relationship is official. All right, girls, I’m going offline to eat now. Bye!”
