The rich man: Who made him rich?
Chapter 139 He is not a liar
Chapter 139 He is not a liar
The Miss Hong Kong pageant has opened a voting channel, and netizens can vote for their favorite contestants according to their preferences.
However, netizens’ votes do not affect the outcome of the competition and are only considered.
He Yuanyuan is currently leading in the voting, with a total of 2.3 votes, more than 3000 votes ahead of the second place.
“Yuanyuan, you are going to win the championship.” He Yuanyuan’s best friend and colleague Zhou Zhou called to congratulate her.
“The audience’s votes will not affect the outcome of the competition. The final decision lies with the judges of the program.” He Yuanyuan said modestly, but there was a hint of happiness in her voice. Although the vote does not affect the outcome, after all, she is currently everyone’s favorite.
It’s always a happy thing.
“The audience’s likes can still affect the outcome of the competition. To celebrate your first place in the online voting, can you treat me to a meal?” Zhou Zhou said.
“…, I knew you had bad intentions.” He Yuanyuan complained.
“I really want it, just give it to me once.” Zhou Zhou said softly.
He Yuanyuan was very cheesy and quickly interrupted: “What do you want to eat?”
“Liyuan Restaurant.”
Liyuan Restaurant is located in Tsim Sha Tsui, near the Peninsula Hotel. Its distinctive dishes, such as Longteng Sihai, Gold Medal Pagoda Meat, and Mom’s Rice Cooker Baked Pigeon, are very popular among locals.
“I am very angry about your behavior of taking advantage of others’ misfortune.”
In the restaurant of Liyuan Restaurant, He Yuanyuan stared at Zhou Zhou with dissatisfaction. The consumption in Liyuan Restaurant was not cheap, and considering her salary, it was quite painful.
“You are already a little celebrity in Hong Kong. Soon a rich young master will take a fancy to you and take you home to marry you. A meal at Liyuan Restaurant is nothing. The rich young master will just buy it for you.” Zhou Zhou said with a smile.
After taking a bite of the pagoda meat, Zhou Zhou squinted his eyes happily, the sweet taste lingering in his mouth, it was so delicious.
“I didn’t win the championship, and no rich man married me, so you have to make up for it for me.” He Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at Zhou Zhou.
“That’s impossible.” Zhou Zhou said with a smile, “But I can act as your flower protector and help you block He Run’s harassment.”
Zhou Zhou didn’t wait for He Yuanyuan’s thanks. He stopped focusing on the food and looked at He Yuanyuan. He saw that He Yuanyuan was looking at the three o’clock direction.
“What are you looking at?” He Yuanyuan asked.
He Yuanyuan ignored Zhou Zhou, lowered her head and dialed a phone call. After the call was connected, she walked up to a man with a smile.
“It’s really you. I thought I was seeing things.”
Li Li looked at He Yuanyuan in front of him in surprise. He didn’t expect to meet her at a meal. He could only say that Hong Kong was too small: “Hello, you are the future big star.”
He Yuanyuan was wearing a plain dress, like a daisy in the morning, fresh and elegant.
“It’s still early. Do you want to join me and my friends?” He Yuanyuan invited.
“Won’t your boyfriend be angry?” Li Li asked with a smile.
“I don’t even have a boyfriend,” He Yuanyuan said. “My dad would be angry if he saw me, but he’s in a meeting with the government tonight.”
Li Li followed He Yuanyuan and changed the dining table. He Yuanyuan introduced them to each other.
Zhou Zhou looked at Li Li with a scrutinizing gaze and said, “Yuanyuan actually has a friend I don’t know. Are you from Hong Kong too?”
“He drives a G-Class,” said He Yuanyuan.
“The car is not mine.” Li Li explained, “I came to Hong Kong for tourism, and the car is for picking up a friend.”
He Yuanyuan looked at Li Li in surprise. She didn’t expect him to deny it.
“Oh~” Zhou Zhou dragged out the last word, “Then your friend is very rich.”
“A little.”
“Can you tell me how much it is? Is his house in Hong Kong big?” Zhou Zhou asked directly.
“You are so rude!” He Yuanyuan said to Zhou Zhou.
“It doesn’t matter.” Li Li said kindly, recalling the Huo family’s assets, “Probably more than 100 billion.”
“Cough, cough, cough.” Zhou Zhou covered his chest and coughed. He didn’t expect that the little bit in the other person’s mouth was more than 100 billion.
“Actually, he is not my friend. He is known by my friend’s friend,” Li Li explained.
He Yuanyuan nodded, not quite understanding. Zhou Zhou: “So your friend is very rich?”
“About 1400 billion.”
Zhou Zhou, He Yuanyuan: “…”
Zhou Zhou even questioned He Yuanyuan with his eyes wildly, “Where did you pick up this rich man? He is so rich!”
“So you are rich too?” Zhou Zhou asked.
“Yes.”
“How much? Can you tell me?”
He Yuanyuan also looked at Li Li curiously.
Li Li gave a mysterious smile and did not answer Zhou Zhou’s question. Zhou Zhou was a little scared and did not ask any more questions.
He Yuanyuan paid the money, and the three of them walked around twice in the moonlight, chatted for a while, and then parted ways.
Zhou Zhou said to He Yuanyuan: “Be careful, don’t be deceived by that man.”
“Do you think he is lying?” He Yuanyuan asked with a frown.
“He really dares to say that. Some say it’s tens of billions, and some say it’s hundreds of billions.” Zhou Zhou curled his lips and continued, “If he was really that rich, would he still eat with us and be so kind?”
“I feel like a liar with little experience.”
He Yuanyuan couldn’t say anything to refute, as her reason told her that her best friend was right.
“Okay, I’ll pay attention.”
Li Li returned to the hotel. The moon over Victoria Harbour was very round. He stood in front of the glass window and looked at the beautiful view. It was cold and clear.
The phone on the sofa rang. It was Zhao Feng calling.
Zhao Feng: “When will you return to the Magic City?”
“Maybe next week, anything?”
Zhao Feng: “Song Juan and I’s wedding is about to take place, so don’t be absent as the best man.”
“No matter how important the event is, it will come after your wedding with Song Juan. You must be there on time!”
“Row!”
Li Li hung up the phone with Zhao Feng, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart. The first one among his classmates to get married was Zhao Feng. He didn’t know whether he would get married in the future. He wanted to find a woman to marry before, but no one was willing to marry him.
Now that he is surrounded by women, he doesn’t want to get married anymore.
After Li Li had a good sleep, he was no longer worried the next day.
The recording site of the Miss Hong Kong finals.
He Yuanyuan wore the dress designated by the organizer, an ink-colored cheongsam, her long hair tied behind her head, and light makeup, looking exceptionally charming.
“The championship will definitely be yours.” Zhou Zhou cheered for her best friend.
He Yuanyuan adjusted her breathing and mentality and nodded to Zhou Zhou.
“Yuanyuan, look, the man from Liyuan Restaurant is here too.” Zhou Zhou pointed at Li Li and asked, “Are you still in touch? Did he come to see you?”
He Yuanyuan shook her head and denied: “No more.”
She looked in the direction Zhou Zhou pointed and saw Li Li talking to someone. She covered her mouth in surprise.
“Chen Kai, the chief planner of our program team.” He Yuanyuan introduced Zhou Zhou.
At this time, Chen Kai stood in front of Li Li, respectfully showed Li Li the contestants’ information, and asked Li Li about his preference and whether there was any female contestant he liked.
Zhou Zhou: “…He didn’t lie that night, and everything he said was true?”
He Yuanyuan said with a complicated expression: “Yes, he should not be a liar.”
