When she saw herself in the mirror, she widened her eyes, looking incredulously, shouting in her heart: Instant effect...
"Ah! Ruyu, quick, look at me, come here and see me." Shangguan Longyi looked in the mirror at herself, excitedly patting her own cheeks.
Lin Ruyu walked over to look at her and indeed noticed a slight difference. Previously, Shangguan Longyi's face was flawless but lacked a bit of glow.
Now her face had a kind of fair glow, and a charming red tint emerging from the whiteness.
"Not bad! Indeed, there's more glow now. You can't stay up late anymore, or you'll return to how you were before. Although you looked good before too, you lacked a bit of glow." Lin Ruyu said with a smile.
"I won't stay up late anymore in the future. The effect is really good. I wonder what kind of sleep schedule works? For some reason, I find sleeping in your bed very comfortable! Every time I lie down, I fall asleep without insomnia." Shangguan Longyi wanted to ask Lin Ruyu where his bed came from, also his bed is much higher compared to many others.
"It's nothing special, just that my mattress is relatively higher. You definitely rarely nap in the afternoon, which is why you feel this way today." Lin Ruyu excused casually.
"Maybe that's it?" Shangguan Longyi was unsure.
Afterwards, Lin Ruyu went to take a bath, and Shangguan Longyi also planned to go home to bathe, intending to attend a gathering of rich second-generation youngsters in the evening.
This gathering was an annual event where Yanjing's influential second-generation groups from Huaxia would come together. The party was bustling with flair, daughters and sons from various families all attending, making it like a social hub for the young generation.
Although it was said to be a social hub, in reality, it was a show-off place, like who from which family made how much money this year, how much profit they brought to the company, or the fancy gifts given to someone admired by the young generation this year, etc.
Basically, it's about how your family has its own perks, and so does mine, everyone comparing when the time comes.
Ye Hao was waiting for Lin Ruyu to finish her bath, feeling bored watching TV.
As for Lin Tian and Yan Shuiyue, they naturally had their engagements too.
However, these engagements during this time were generally business salons, discussing next year's commercial strategies, seeing if there's anything suitable, or if there's a shared interest to do the same thing.
"Hello everyone, I'm Liu, the host of the Central Television Station. Today, several well-known experts and professors have joined us at the station. They have a different view on the Nansha Islands issue over there. Let's hear what the experts think about the new perspective?"
"Hello everyone, my name is Rong Guang."
"I'm Chu Qiu."
"I'm Southwest."
"Regarding this interview about the Nansha Islands, there's an ongoing dispute about the ownership issue. The Philippines is becoming increasingly rampant, even feeling confident enough to include Taiping Island as part of the Philippines. Regarding these series of brazen acts by the Philippines, what choice will Huaxia make? Will there be a concession or a stance to fight? Please, experts, guide us." The Central host Liu asked.
"I believe Huaxia will choose to evade, why? Because domestic development in Huaxia is always more important than the Nansha Islands. Although controlling the Nansha Islands can make the South Sea more stable, if a war arises over a Taiping Island with the Philippines, it may lead to a much greater war ahead. Who benefits? The Philippines' godfather, the United States, which has been preparing for war across the country, waiting for Huaxia to make a wrong decision, then using its position as the world's policeman to cause various accusations against us..." said Rong Guang, sharing his perspective.
"No, I don't think so. Although Huaxia's development is important, I believe Huaxia won't be incited by this clown, the Philippines, to remain tolerant. Huaxia has tolerated this small country time and again, and I think it's time to erupt." Chu Qiu, being relatively young, expressed his somewhat hot-headed idea.
Ye Hao watched the program feeling bored, thinking that, no matter how much you all speak, it won't be as direct as a single sentence from several big bosses of the Military Commission, so he decisively turned off the TV.
But little did he know, Huaxia was starting to arm its navy, planning to give the Philippines a lesson.
Ye Hao watched TV for a while before Lin Ruyu finally finished her bath. It was close to six o'clock when Ye Hao took her to Century Heaven City.
Century Heaven City is an industry secretly controlled by several of the ten big families. The décor here is luxurious and magnificent, making it indisputably the highest-end club for wealthy offspring.
Century Heaven City towered like a fortress in Yanjing's commercial center, precious as gold land, standing ten stories high, with each floor representing a different status.
Ordinary people could only consume from the first to the third floor, third-tier families could reach to the fourth and fifth floors, second-tier could reach the sixth and seventh floors, and first-tier families could consume above the eighth floor.
Many people would fight tooth and nail just to get a membership card for the eighth floor or above at Century Heaven City, setting it as their goal to strive for.
But today, everyone who arrived in luxury cars went straight to the ninth floor. The doormen looking at everyone coming in nodded, bowing enthusiastically, saying welcome.
As for the onlookers, they were naturally those from second or third-tier families, who could only watch and not go up.
Of course, what they envied were those second and third-tier families flattering the young masters from first-tier families and following them to the ninth floor, while they could only watch at the elevator entrance.
"Someday, I'll go up there, I'm not worse than anyone else," many people silently shouted in their hearts, unwilling to back down.
At this moment, Ye Hao brought Lin Ruyu to Century Heaven City. Since the car he drove was too ordinary, just a 360-Benz, it was quickly overlooked by the valet.
Ye Hao, seeing the situation, didn't get angry. After all, he had hands and feet, and didn't necessarily need others to help park to stop.
So he found a spot casually to park.
Just as he parked the car, a valet came running up behind.
"Hey! Parking is not allowed here, clear off immediately."
Today, since so many people from various families came, parking spots were naturally tight. Seeing it was a normal 360, the valet immediately said no parking was allowed, to avoid some real Crown Prince coming later and getting angry.
Ye Hao rolled down the window and asked, "Isn't this a spot?"
"It's not meant for your type of car to park here," the valet said with disdain.
"Oh? So where should I park?" Ye Hao chuckled, never losing his temper with people who look down on others.
"Park by the roadside. If fined, just pay a few hundred yuan, it'll be fine."
"Forget it, I'm not interested in getting fined, so I've decided..."
"Decided what?"
"Decided to park right here."
