Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1018: Chapter 1018: Sending My Remaining Years Afar (Part 12)

The air was a bit quiet.

Uncle Bai didn’t dare to look, hanging his head as if pretending he didn’t exist.

He now had no doubt that this girl might refuse their family’s master.

If the master were rejected...

Uncle Bai felt he might be silenced.

Yu Jin felt warmth in his palm as the girl’s hand was placed on it, quite boldly gripping it, her fingertips sliding across his palm.

Yu Jin felt a ripple in the depths of his heart following that trace.

A bit... inexplicable.

But he didn’t find it repulsive or annoying.

He tightened his fingers, the corners of his mouth lifting into a casual smile.

-

Perhaps to match Yu Jin’s attire, the clothes sent over weren’t overly extravagant.

Chuzheng changed into the dress and still needed to get styled.

Sigh.

Just said she wouldn’t attend any banquets.

So troublesome.

If not for the Good Person Card...

Chuzheng took a few deep breaths, suppressing the irritation in her heart.

Fortunately, Uncle Bai called for the stylist to come, doing it right in the villa so there’s no need for hassle.

Yu Jin sat in the back, his casual jacket slightly open, supporting his chin with one hand, thoughtfully watching the girl over there.

Why did he want to invite her just now?

Being locked in here, now she instead became the host, and he became the guest.

Is it being unconventional?

No...

There were many who caught his eye with their unconventionality, and he had seen countless beauties.

But none had drawn his attention like this.

”Miss Song, do you have any dissatisfaction?” The stylist asked Chuzheng.

”Miss Song looks very pretty.”

Yu Jin didn’t know when he stood behind, looking at her through the mirror.

”Mm.”

Chuzheng looked at the beauty in the mirror, feeling quite satisfied in her heart.

”...” Really not humble at all.

-

In the car.

There was still space for another person between Chuzheng and Yu Jin.

Yu Jin leaned lazily against the seat, gazing out the window, lost in thought.

No one spoke along the way.

The car slowly stopped, Chuzheng looked outside to find it was a familiar place.

Golden Sunshine Club.

At this moment, a red carpet was laid outside the club, brightly lit, resembling some grand red carpet event.

Yet, there weren’t many people here, nor were there any reporters.

Uncle Bai opened the door for Yu Jin first.

Yu Jin walked around the car door, intending to open it for Chuzheng, but Chuzheng pushed the car door open herself and got out swiftly.

Yu Jin: ”...”

Uncle Bai: ”...”

Can’t you be a bit more ladylike?

In such a setting, how could you get out of the car by yourself!

Yu Jin placed his hand in front of himself: ”Miss Song.”

Chuzheng glanced at him and hooked her hand through his arm.

”Fifth Brother.”

Yu Jin paused in his steps and looked back.

A man with a female companion was slowly approaching them.

The man bore some resemblance to Yu Jin in appearance.

But he didn’t possess such breathtaking features as Yu Jin.

The female companion glanced at Yu Jin, visibly amazed, her eyes almost glued to him.

”Third Brother.” Yu Jin spoke lazily.

The man approached, casting a sweeping glance over Chuzheng, with the typical gaze men use to appraise women.

Clearly a striking beauty, but at this moment exuding a chilliness, not at all vulgar, making one’s eye easily remember.

Where did Yu Jin find such a pretty girl?

Yu Kai felt an itch in his heart, but given Yu Jin’s presence, he reined in his gaze.

”Wasn’t Fifth Brother abroad? When did you get back?”

Yu Jin replied, unfazed: ”Today.”

Chuzheng: ”...” So that villa was abroad.

Yu Kai didn’t dwell on that topic, as everyone already knew the truth.

”And who might this beauty be?” Yu Kai’s gaze fell on Chuzheng again, half-joking and half-serious: ”Fifth Brother is usually not one for women, why bring a date today? Could she be Fifth Brother’s sweetheart?”

”No need for Third Brother to be concerned.” Yu Jin replied with a half-smile: ”Third Brother changes companions frequently, watch your health. I heard Third Brother was hospitalized recently.”

Yu Kai: ”...”

Yu Jin had no intention to continue the exchange, taking Chuzheng away directly.

”Damn!”

Yu Kai cursed at the back.

”What are you looking at?” When the man turned his head, he found his female companion staring obsessively at the leaving figure, anger flared up: ”Is he that good-looking?”

The female companion had wanted to ask Yu Kai who that was, but seeing Yu Kai suddenly flare up, she dared not ask anymore, patting Yu Kai’s chest soothingly: ”Kai-ge, you can’t compare with him, you’re the most handsome in my heart, no one can match you.”

Yu Kai still suppressed his anger: ”It’s money that’s the most handsome in your heart, isn’t it?”

The woman: ”...”

With money, I can endure!

The woman coquettishly soothed Yu Kai.

”Third Brother, what has you so angry?”

Yu Kai looked at the young man who appeared out of nowhere, said meaningfully: ”Lao Wu is here.”

The young man raised an eyebrow in surprise: ”Fifth Brother is back in the country?”

”What are you pretending, he never went abroad.” Yu Kai said irritably.

Using going abroad as an excuse, Yu Jin didn’t even bother with the pretense.

Who are they trying to fool!

The young man chuckled, gestured for Yu Kai’s female companion to wait aside: ”Third Brother, I heard Fifth Brother was injured, is it true or false?”

”He didn’t look injured to me.” Yu Kai sneered at him: ”Brought a woman with him, although... she’s quite pretty.”

Yu Kai glanced at the woman he brought, suddenly feeling uninterested.

-

This banquet was attended by people of considerable renown in the circle, Chuzheng saw several faces frequently appearing in financial magazines.

Yu Jin brought Chuzheng in, and since they entered through the side door, it didn’t draw much attention.

Those who did notice were only amazed by Yu Jin’s looks, seemingly... not recognizing him.

Isn’t he a big shot?

Chuzheng thought carefully, everyone’s afraid of the Yu Family’s name.

Speaking of which, when Song Boxue initially found out, he assumed the one seeking Song Yanran was a crippled, ill-tempered old man...

Chuzheng glanced at Yu Jin.

Old man... cripple... ill-tempered...

Not matching any of those.

Yu Jin’s temper was pretty good, at least outwardly.

”Not curious about who that guy was earlier?”

Yu Jin found a corner, placing Chuzheng inside it, himself on the outside, just enough to block the outside view.

”Not interested.”

Yu Jin raised an eyebrow slightly: ”Gossiping is human nature, why isn’t Miss Song interested?”

”...”

Do you think I wouldn’t gossip in secret?

Of course, I’d gossip secretly!

Chuzheng held her face sternly: ”Are you insulting me?” Is not gossiping making her less human?!

Yu Jin: ”...”

Yu Jin was amazed by Chuzheng’s logic, how did it turn into an insult?

Which word did he just say had the meaning of insulting her?

”The person from earlier is my Third Brother, Yu Kai.” Yu Jin introduced voluntarily: ”A seasoned player, no fewer than a hundred women have been involved with him.”

Chuzheng commented objectively: ”His kidneys are pretty healthy.”

”...”

Is that the point?

Yu Jin suddenly found it amusing.

Chuzheng watched him, unsure of what he found funny, just feeling that this Good Person Card was a bit... neurotic.
