“Alright, ignore them.”
Li Mengyao’s boyfriend said,
“With their situation, they’ll probably have to eat dirt this year after buying this set of cosmetics. Only they know what their lives are like. There’s no need to fight over these things.”
Li Mengyao nodded. “You’re right. There’s really no need to fight over this.”
Ji Qingyan shook her head nonchalantly. She did not want to argue with them, so she took out her bank card and handed it to the waiter.
“The pa.s.sword is oooooo.”
“Yo, Lin Yi, why are you asking your girlfriend to pay when you’re out shopping?” Li Mengyao crossed her arms in front of her chest and said in a dignified manner.
“I really didn’t expect the most handsome guy in our school to get together with a rich woman. If this gets out, you’ll be famous.”
“You can say whatever you want about this.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely promote it for you. Now that you’ve hooked up with a rich woman, you’re considered rich. You’ll make all the other students envious.”
“You can be as envious as you want since it’s free’.”
“Sir, please sign this.”
The waiter walked over with a bank receipt in his hand.
“Why do you need me to sign it?”
“This has to be signed by the card owner himself.”
“Understood.”
Lin Yi took a pen and signed his name.
“By the way, I remember something. I have a diamond membership card from your mall. It seems like I can get a 50% discount. Can you recalculate the final cost?”
“Diamond membership!”
Seeing the membership card in Lin Yi’s hand, the salesperson was stunned.
“You have a diamond membership card!”
“Previously, I came to your place. President Li gave it to me, but it hasn’t been used in a long time. The rules haven’t changed, right?”
“No, no, no. It hasn’t changed. I’ll recalculate the price for you now.”
Normally speaking, it would be useless even if he took out his membership card after paying.
However, diamond membership cards were different. There were no more than five in all of Zhonghai, and they held great privileges in Henglong Square.
The salesperson had to deal with it properly.
Otherwise, he would lose his job.
“Wait a minute!”
Li Mengyao stepped forward and said,
“I recall that the highest level here is a platinum membership card. Where did this diamond membership card come from?”
“Our diamond membership cards are not publicly distributed. The president of our company personally gives them out. There are no more than five of them in Zhonghai.”
“The president gave it to you personally!”
Li Mengyao looked at Lin Yi in surprise. She couldn’t figure out why Lin Yi had such an exclusive membership card!
“Are you guys mistaken? He’s my university cla.s.smate. His family background is terrible, and he works as a police officer. How can he have such a special membership card? He must have picked it up. I think you should call the police.”
“You’re overthinking,” the salesperson said sarcastically.
“According to the information displayed on the card, the cardholder is indeed Mr. Lin Yi. I hope you won’t judge others by your own narrow-minded standards.”
“His card!”
Li Mengyao looked at Lin Yi in disbelief. “Impossible. There are no more than five such cards in the entire Zhonghai. How could you have such privileges!” “Didn’t they tell you not to judge others by your own narrow-mindedness? If you can’t understand it, then don’t bother thinking about it. It’s no good for you.”
“That’s bulls.h.i.t!”
Li Mengyao felt humiliated and shouted,
“No matter what, my boyfriend is a boss with a net worth of tens of millions. If he’s not qualified, how can you be?!”
“He’s just the boss of a start-up company. Where did you get such a sense of superiority?”
“That’s still better than you! Even if you don’t eat or drink for the rest of your life, you won’t earn as much as he does in a year!”
“Haha, to be able to earn so much money in a year, that’s quite impressive.” Lin Yi said.
“However, it’s hard to say if his company will still remain open tomorrow. Be mentally prepared. Don’t say that I didn’t warn you.”
“Are you jealous of my boyfriend? I’m surprised you can even say something like that. Do you think it will work?” Li Mengyao said.
“I’m not afraid to tell you that the CEOs of several venture capital companies are very optimistic about their boyfriend’s project and are prepared to fork out money to him. Let me tell you openly, there’s no way it will close down. Moreover, it will be listed in less than two years. When the time comes, he’ll have money you will never see in your whole life.”
“We’ll see.”
With that, Lin Yi left with Ji Qingyan.
“Let’s go, darling. Ignore them.” Li Mengyao held onto her boyfriend’s arm.
“Don’t listen to him curse you. You’re just a keyboard warrior living at the bottom of society. You won’t be able to make a comeback for the rest of your life.”
“I don’t care about such people, but I’m just a little curious. He actually has a diamond membership card. Ordinary people can’t get it,” Qi Lei said.
“Perhaps his ident.i.ty is special. After all, he’s a police officer. Due to some special reasons, he got to know the CEO of Henglong Square. It’s not too strange for him to get this membership card.”
“You’re right.”
“Let’s go somewhere else. After we’re done shopping, we’ll go eat. I’m a little hungry.”
“Let’s go.”
After that, Li Mengyao and her boyfriend walked around the mall for more than half an hour. After buying everything they needed, they went to a western restaurant for dinner.
They had also forgotten about Lin Yi and didn’t take it to heart.
Ring ring ring!
After dinner, the two of them went to the parking lot and were about to go home, but just as they got into the car, Qi Lei’s phone rang.
“All, President Zhang called me.”
“Which President Zhang? Is it President Zhang from Sunrise New Capital?”
“That’s him,” Qi Lei said.
“Back then, after he invested 30 million yuan in me, the two of us chatted privately for a while and said that he valued my project very much. He wanted to go back and study it before investing again. 1 think this is the outcome.” Li Mengyao’s eyes lit up. “How much can we get this time?”
“A conservative estimate is more than 100 million,” Qi Lei said proudly.
“That’s because many venture capital companies have taken a fancy to this project and have invested a lot of money in me. In order to get a larger stake, he will definitely fork out more money, so it will have to be more than 100 million yuan. It can’t be any less.”
Li Mengyao was so excited that her heart was pounding.
She had never thought that she would one day become a billionaire!
This was 100 million!
She had never seen so much money in her life.
“Hurry, hurry, hurry. Hurry up and pick up President Zhang’s call. He might hang up soon.”
Qi Lei nodded and answered the call.
“President Zhang, were you looking for me?” Qi Lei chuckled.
“I was just thinking about asking you out for tea tomorrow. I didn’t expect you to call.”
“There’s no need for tea. I have something to tell you. I’m planning to withdraw the 30 million yuan VC investment. I’m calling you to let you know this..”
