Chapter 75 -75: Like a Clown

Hearing that the bill was 730,000, the intern Zhang Yao beside him was also stunned.

“How could we possibly have spent so much money!” Zhang Yao exclaimed.

The shop manager began tallying their bill, “One bottle of Feitian Maotai is 3,800, four bottles of La Romanee Conti are 720,000, and one bottle of Chateau Lafitte Rothschild Dry Red Wine 2004 is 12,000, coming to a total of 730,000 and 5,800. The change is on the house, since you came with Mr. Lin Dong.”

Upon scrutinizing the bill, the two of them realized that the two bottles of wine Lin Dong had taken later were actually so expensive.

180,000 a bottle!

Zhang Yao was scared to tears. 730,000 was a huge sum for an intern like her.

Even for Huang Hua, it was a substantial amount of money.

It was enough to buy a luxury car and make a down payment on a house.

Yet today, they had spent it on one meal.

Huang Hua looked at Zhang Yao: “Zhang Yao, about this money… let’s split it fifty-fifty. We can’t let the teacher pay it all by himself, I can’t afford it either.”

“Waahhh—” Zhang Yao burst into tears: “Teacher, I’m just an intern, where would I get so much money?”

“And, teacher, you clearly said you were treating. Didn’t you say you’d leave the choice of dishes to me?”

Huang Hua argued, “But that didn’t mean you could order wine that costs 180,000 a bottle…”

The two began to argue.

Seeing this, the shop manager was at a loss for words and said, “Hurry up and pay, or we’re calling the police!!!”

In the end, Huang Hua paid 600,000.

As for the remaining 130,000, it was Zhang Yao who made a call to her family, and her parents came up with the money.

Her parents cursed her fiercely, scolding her as a disgraceful daughter for spending so much money on a meal.

Zhang Yao silently listened to her parents’ scolding, while wiping away tears and swearing to herself:

“I will never drink red wine again, so much for the finesse in enjoying red wine…”

…

As for Lin Dong, he had already gone back with Sister Bai Jue.

Sister Bai Jue was puzzled, “Dongzi, what’s going on here? How did you become Yu Jiangnan Hotel’s most precious guest in the blink of an eye?”

“And also get a free meal! What’s the situation?”

Lin Dong explained the matter of the Five Dragon Supreme Card to Sister Bai Jue.

After hearing it, Sister Bai Jue was lost in thought again.

“Dongzi, this is incredible. Common people can hardly even book a reservation at that restaurant, yet you can eat there for free!”

Lin Dong smiled and said, “We can’t go there every day, though. If we did, they certainly wouldn’t welcome us.”

“Even going there occasionally is extraordinary.”

Bai Jue felt that she had truly discovered a treasure. Lin Dong had been in the city for only a short time, yet he managed to acquire various things.

Work, a house, and a network of connections.

However, Lin Dong himself was quite indifferent to all these.

In his eyes, the most important thing was still cultivating the Nine Shift Longevity secret.

That night, after he entered the bedroom, he began to cultivate.

“Let’s consolidate the opening of the orifice in the eyes!” Thinking this, Lin Dong sat down cross-legged and began to circulate the Nine Shift Longevity secret.

Instantly, a stream of genuine Qi followed the meridians of the body, concentrating into his pair of eyes.

His eyes flickered with a sharp gleam, and his vision penetrated the walls of the bedroom.

Sister Bai Jue’s room next door was completely visible.

He saw Sister Bai Jue, draped in a sheer garment, lying in the bed.

“What’s Sister Bai Jue doing?” Lin Dong found it odd, staring intently, his face turned red in an instant.

He hadn’t expected that…

“I need to hurry up and cultivate to the fourth level!” Lin Dong said to himself with determination.

After averting his gaze, Lin Dong continued to meditate cross-legged, his mind wholly focused on taking his strength to the next level.

Only when he reached the fourth level could he truly experience the rolling red dust.

Otherwise, he could only watch, unable to do anything.

At this moment, he took out his phone and made a call to Sister Hong.

“Divine Doctor Lin, what is it that you’re looking for me for so late at night?” Sister Hong asked urgently from the other end.

Lin Dong nodded and said, “How is the preparation for the auction going?”

Sister Hong immediately responded, “I’ve raised twenty million here, and I will definitely help Divine Doctor Lin secure that 400-year-old Polygonum Multiflorum!”

“Good!” A look of joy appeared on Lin Dong’s face.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Dong thought to himself that by securing the 400-year-old Polygonum Multiflorum, advancing to the fourth level would be even closer within reach.

…

Time flew by, and soon it was the day before the auction.

Over the past few days, Lin Dong noticed that both Huang Hua and Zhang Yao at the hospital had become much more subdued.

Probably the banquet that night had made them somewhat wary of Lin Dong.

Because they couldn’t figure out Lin Dong’s identity and why he was treated as an honored guest by the Yu Jiangnan Hotel staff, allowing him free of charge.

Others in the department were also full of curiosity about Lin Dong, feeling that he had suddenly become mysterious.

It wasn’t until that day when Huang Hua ran into Wang Meimei, who mentioned that last time she saw Lin Dong getting into a rich lady’s sports car, and it seemed like he was kept by some rich woman.

Huang Hua then had an ‘epiphany’!

“I get it now; Lin Dong being able to get a free meal at Yu Jiangnan Hotel is not because he is some big shot, but because of the rich woman behind him!”

“I despise him, a grown man actually living off a woman.”

Though he spoke this way, there was still a touch of envy in his tone.

After all, being able to live off a woman was a skill in its own right.

Wang Meimei laughingly said, “Actually, there’s nothing to envy. A rich woman will get tired of playing eventually. Once she tires of him, Lin Dong will be nothing.”

Huang Hua nodded, and henceforth he no longer feared Lin Dong.

Do I, Huang Hua, have to be afraid of just a Little White Face?

That day, after returning to the department, Huang Hua, who had been quiet for a few days, began to act arrogantly and high-handedly towards Lin Dong again.

“Lin Dong, you’re young and able-bodied, but you have no self-respect, living off a woman; I look down on you,” Huang Hua said disdainfully to Lin Dong.

Lin Dong looked puzzled and replied, “What are you talking about?”

“Hmph, stop pretending. I know all about it, what’s so great about living off a woman? Have the guts to be like me, rely on your own strength and family background.”

“See this invitation? This is for the Jianghai Commerce Association’s auction taking place tomorrow!”

“Do you know how difficult it is to get this invitation? Even Director Qiao would find it as difficult as scaling the heavens. As for you, you wouldn’t get it even if you tried your whole life.”

Lin Dong thought the man was crazy, acting like a clown.

Not wanting to deal with him, Lin Dong went straight to the sickroom to see the patients.

Watching Lin Dong’s retreating figure, Huang Hua said with a smug face, “Once I attend the auction tomorrow, I’ll get to know all sorts of upper-class people in Jianghai.”

“As for you, Lin Dong, you’ll be less than nothing in front of me.”
