It turned out that when the price greatly exceeded expectations, the pressure it brought to people could turn into a joke. Some people were in a bad mood and would even come there to look at the price to relieve stress.
When Xu Zhen heard that the price of a piece of clothing was 30,000 yuan, she was stunned and did not even dare to touch it. The three of them laughed and left.
"What material is that dress made of? How can it be so expensive?" Xu Zhen exclaimed.
"Mom, that dress is not only expensive, but it's also a formal dress. It can't be washed and usually only worn once," Ye Lingchen said.
"30,000 yuan only worn once?" Xu Zhen gasped. "Poverty has limited my imagination."
After a pause, Xu Zhen said worriedly, "Son, don't buy the clothes here. You shouldn't spend like this even if you're rich!"
Ye Jin also nodded. "I know you can make money now, but don't spend it recklessly. Just like last time, the golden pipe you bought is still at home. It's useless!"
Ye Jin and Xu Zhen's mouths twitched when they thought of the golden pipe and the jade that Ye Lingchen bought. 300,000 yuan went down the drain just like that.
Now that Ye Lingchen brought them to see those luxury clothes, they were even more shocked. They were afraid that Ye Lingchen would spend it recklessly.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry. I'm not that extravagant," Ye Lingchen said with a smile.
Although he was rich now, his clothes were provided by Vatti for free and he rarely went to such places.
The street was full of luxury brands. The three of them shopped until the afternoon, occasionally letting his parents try on the clothes. However, when he saw his parents' expressions, Ye Lingchen did not buy it in the end. He planned to buy it secretly next time as a gift for his parents.
"Dad, Mom, when will that distant relative arrive?" Ye Lingchen looked at the sky and asked.
"He should be here soon."
As soon as Ye Jin finished speaking, his phone rang. "They're calling."
After the call, Ye Jin immediately took Ye Lingchen out of the mall. "They're not far from here. They'll be here soon."
Ye Lingchen nodded and the three of them stood outside the square and waited.
However, the three of them waited outside for a full hour, but there was still no sign of them. Ye Lingchen frowned slightly and felt a little unhappy.
It was not until the sky gradually darkened that a black car arrived late and three people got out of the car.
A middle-aged man, a woman, and a young girl.
"Hahaha, Old Ye, long time no see. You're still the same." The middle-aged man laughed and looked at Ye Lingchen. "This must be your son. I didn't expect him to be so old already. I heard that he got into Capital University. He's really a top student!"
"I just had better luck in the exam." Ye Jin smiled.
Everyone introduced themselves to one another. The middle-aged man's surname was Lu, and his name was Lu Yuan. His daughter was Lu Qi, and she was already in her second year at an average school. As for the woman, her name was Sun Hong, and she had not said a word. She stood to the side with a calm expression.
"Sigh, I'm really sorry. There was a traffic jam on the road, so I came late." Lu Yuan said casually, "Everything is good in Beijing, but it's too crowded. I live less than two kilometers away from here. I didn't expect to be stuck in traffic for an hour."
He originally wanted to show off that he lived within Capital City's Third Ring Road, but it was obvious that Ye Lingchen's parents did not get the message.
"It's alright. Capital City is really congested. It's still more comfortable to live in Rugao City," said Xu Zhen.
On the side, Lu Qi couldn't help but sneer. She curled her lips and said in a low voice, "Bumpkin!"
"How was it? Did you buy any clothes you like while shopping here? "Lu Yuan continued to ask.
Ye Jin shook her head and sighed, "The clothes here are too extravagant."
"Hahaha, it's expensive here, but the clothes here symbolize status. It's very meaningful." Lu Yuan laughed. "As the saying goes, clothes make the man. This is the only way to show the difference between people."
Sun Hong smiled slightly. "We only come here once a week. It's normal that you can't afford it. I have a lot of bags from here at home. They're just sitting there. Sister Xu, you can go pick one."
"There's no need." Xu Zhen shook her head. She could clearly hear the pride in their tone.
"I've booked a private room at Capital City Hotel. We'll talk while we eat," Lu Yuan said, then led everyone to the car.
"Dad, our car can't fit so many people." Lu Qi frowned and looked at Ye Lingchen and the other two in disdain. She would never be willing to squeeze in the back seat with Ye Lingchen and the other two.
"This …" Lu Yuan slapped his forehead. "Aiya! This is my mistake. I forgot that you don't have a car. "
"We'll just take a taxi," Ye Lingchen said calmly. He was expressionless and immediately called a taxi.
He could tell that this group of people were there to show off their superiority. A nouveau riche from the city flaunted his superiority in front of his fellow countrymen. Posturing was everywhere. If it were not for the sake of his parents, he would have left right away.
After getting in the car, Ye Jin's expression was a little ugly. She sighed and said, "Their family wasn't like this before. Lingchen had a good relationship with Lu Qi when he was young. How did it become like this?"
"They've made it big and they don't care about us anymore," Xu Zhen said with a very unnatural expression. "We might as well not eat this meal."
"Mom, Dad, it's fine. It's just a meal," Ye Lingchen said indifferently, but his heart was already filled with anger.
'You can make me unhappy, but you can't make my parents unhappy!'
Last time, someone flaunted his wealth in front of his mother and was slapped in the face. Now, someone dared to show off their superiority in front of his parents?!
He took out his phone and sent a text message to a number.
"I'm going to your restaurant for dinner tonight!"
At that moment, a middle-aged man was in the Grand Capital Hotel. His phone emitted a sharp sound.
His expression changed abruptly.
As the owner of the Grand Capital Hotel, he naturally had his ways. He had set a focus on some important people. Usually, when he received news, his phone would react greatly!
That sound meant that an important person was looking for him!
He dared not delay and immediately looked at his phone. That one look and his entire face turned red.
Although it was just a simple sentence, his body trembled slightly. The source of the message was … Grandmaster Ye!
He would never forget Grandmaster Ye's elegance that day. Putting aside the Lin family, even the Lu family took the initiative to look for him. They told him that if he saw Grandmaster Ye, he must do everything he could to please him.
Now, Grandmaster Ye wanted to come here for dinner!
Prepare. He had to prepare well!
He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. Then, he carefully replied, "Yes, yes. I'll prepare it for Grandmaster Ye right away!"
