A good night’s sleep.

Early next morning, Huang Xiaolong got up, loaded two big boxes of cash, and went to a nearby bank.

All the money was deposited into a bank account.

This was the bank account of the village head.

After accomplishing this task, Huang Xiaolong felt a great sense of achievement. He squinted slightly, and it seemed as if a brilliant school had arisen in the village.

There was the sound of reading, classrooms were bright and clean, campus was full of birdsong and the scent of flowers, everything was growing vigorously…

Ah… it was so beautiful!

However, Huang Xiaolong knew he had a long way to go. These things like old-age homes, bridge and road repairs, all of those still required a lot of money!

Rome was not built in a day. After strolling around Huahai Street for a long time, as it was nearly lunchtime, Huang Xiaolong scampered into Su Xiaoman’s fast food restaurant.

At the entrance of “Xiaoman’s Fast Food”, a BMW 320LI was parked. The trunk was open, filled with stunningly beautiful roses.

A lot of people were gathered around, some were taking pictures with their phones and sharing them on their social media.

“The owner of this fast food restaurant is quite pretty, someone must be confessing their love to her.”

“Wow– How romantic! This is the legendary 999 roses…”

“It’s a BMW! It must be a rich second generation. If a boy confessed his love to me like this, I would be delighted, and immediately say yes…”

“Confession?” Huang Xiaolong hesitated for a moment, “But Sister Xiaoman is my wife…what’s going on?”

Huang Xiaolong hurriedly stepped into the restaurant.

As expected, inside the restaurant, a man around thirty years old was holding a bouquet of red roses and babbling something at Su Xiaoman.

The man was dressed immaculately. His white shirt was pressed so smoothly that not a wrinkle could be seen. He even had a red tie that was quite ?flamboyant. His hairstyle was fixed with hair gel. But, he was a bit short, had a red nose and his looks…well, they really couldn’t be complimented.

In stark contrast to this man was the beautifully dressed Su Xiaoman.

She was wearing a light-colored business suit. It was elegant and relaxed, her long hair was floating, a platinum necklace gifted by Huang Xiaolong the night before, hung on her slender, smooth neck. She was truly graceful and dignified.

Her cheeks adorned with a light blush and well-applied powder made her already beautiful face even more stunning.

The highlight was her legs, wrapped in black stockings, they looked sexy and mature. Silver high heels perfectly enhancing her legs.

The man was continuously babbling, staring at Su Xiaoman with lustful eyes and even occasionally swallowing.

Su Xiaoman’s expression was very impatient, even somewhat disgusted.

“Little Long, you’re here.” As soon as Su Xiaoman saw Huang Xiaolong walk in, her eyes lit up. She disregarded the man completely and floated towards Huang Xiaolong like a colorful cloud.

“Eh? Sister Xiaoman, did you put on makeup today?” Huang Xiaolong looked up and down at Su Xiaoman.

Su Xiaoman’s face flushed even more beautifully. “Mmm…Little Long, I rarely wear makeup. I used the cosmetics you gave me yesterday… Do I look good?”

As the saying goes, women dress up to please themselves. Today, Su Xiaoman dressed up especially for Huang Xiaolong.

“You look stunning! Sister Xiaoman, you look so gorgeous today, particularly those black stockings, a hundred out of ten!” Huang Xiaolong praised without exaggeration.

After speaking, Huang Xiaolong couldn’t help but glance at the man in the restaurant.

Su Xiaoman, afraid that Huang Xiaolong would be upset, took the initiative to explain.

Turns out, this guy is named “Deng Wei”, a small-time business mogul whose family owns a few supermarkets while he himself founded a canned food factory which has turned a profit. He owns a few million yuan in assets. Even though he’s not rubbing shoulders with Binhai City’s true upper class, he’s a figure many in middle-class society would admire.

A couple of months ago, one of Su Xiaoman’s distant relatives introduced her to Deng Wei for a blind date. Reluctantly, she agreed out of obligation, even though she had no interest.

Deng Wei was charmed by Su Xiaoman’s beauty and physique, but considering her family background and her financially dependent brother, he backed off.

Su Xiaoman was even less interested.

Subsequently, Deng Wei tried to privately text Su Xiaoman, brazenly offering ten thousand yuan for her virginity. The proposition infuriated Xiaoman and she gave him a piece of her mind over the phone.

After that, they lost all contact.

Today, for whatever reason, Deng Wei voluntarily came to the store to find Su Xiaoman and even brought a carload of red roses to confess his feelings.

Su Xiaoman was both stunned and disgusted, but she’s no fool. After a brief chat with him, she got a sense of his real intentions.

Smoked Duck!

Deng Wei made an offhand mention of the smoked duck dish that Su Xiaoman had cooked the night before!

Apparently… his interest wasn’t just academic!

“Little Long, don’t get the wrong idea, I really don’t have anything going on with that guy… Ah, who would’ve thought, a secret smoked duck recipe has attracted so many unsavory characters…” Su Xiaoman grumbled to Huang Xiaolong. Standing as close to her as he was, her sweet, orchid-like breath made his nostrils tingle, a delightful sensation.

“Oh, Sister Xiaoman, let’s forget about him. Let’s go get some lunch.” Huang Xiaolong didn’t consider Deng Wei as a love rival, because he simply didn’t qualify!

“Cough, cough… Xiaoman, who’s this?” Deng Wei, ignored by Huang Xiaolong, but took the initiative to approach Xiaoman, eyeing Huang Xiaolong.[/p]

Gazing at Huang Xiaolong’s rustic attire, Deng Wei sneered as he mocked

Huang Xiaolong under his breath, ‘Heh…Su Xiaoman’s parents both died early. Her family is too poor and they’re rumored to be heavily in debt, owing several hundred thousand. Nobody wants to shoulder her burden. Therefore, she’s forced to mingle with these country kids… It’s laughable. This bumpkin who can’t even clean the mud off his shoes is trying to hit on girls in the city? Wait until I get a hold of Su Xiaoman and trick the smoked duck recipe out of her…’

“Who am I?” Without a word, Huang Xiaolong simply took Su Xiaoman’s hand firmly into his, “I’m sure you know who I am to Sister Xiaoman now, don’t you?”

When Huang Xiaolong took her hand, Su Xiaoman’s heart fluttered. She blushed, her eyes glistening with affection and her cheeks rosy.

An outsider could easily tell at a glance what kind of relationship she had with Huang Xiaolong…

“You! Xiaoman, you and him…you’ve gotten this far already?” Deng Wei’s face paled, a sour taste filled his heart. To think that the woman he’d set his sights on had been claimed by a simple country boy!

Moreover, his coveted smoked duck recipe, would that not turn into an unobtainable dream?

Deng Wei shot a malicious gaze at Huang Xiaolong, swallowing his rage that was threatening to explode like lava.

“Xiaman, I seem to have heard that he wants to take you out to lunch…” Deng Wei asked, his voice laden with innuendo.

“Yes, that’s correct, Sister Xiaoman and I are off to lunch. Do you have a problem with that?” Huang Xiaolong readily picked up on Deng Wei’s insinuation.

“Ha-ha…” Deng Wei sneered, his eyes full of mockery, his tone lofty and

patronizing, “Country boy, seems like you just crawled out of the village, huh? ?Xiaoman, we do have some acquaintance after all, so I need to speak to you about something. While this hillbilly looks decent enough, when looking for a man, you must consider more than just appearance, am I right? What good is being good-looking? It’s just a golden exterior that hides rotten filth! Can good looks provide food? Money is king in this materialistic society and it can provide you a worry-free life. Without money, you’re just wading through the mud at the bottom of society, living a wretched life, being the butt of people’s jokes, with no dignity. Furthermore, women need maintenance. Without money, you will age faster and eventually become a face that people dread to see…”

As Deng Wei talked, he grew more confident and conceited. He attempted to use his financial superiority to belittle Huang Xiaolong and win over Su Xiaoman, “For instance, your country boy boyfriend is taking you out to eat today. What can he afford? Just some roadside stalls, how tacky! Listen here, country bumpkin, a beautiful girl like Xiaoman deserves to go to high-class venues that match her looks and temperament! So, you think you can take her to ‘Emperor’s Restaurant’ for a meal? Dare you? Ha-ha-ha! Don’t scare yourself, a person dressed like you will be kicked out even before you get in!”

“What? ‘Emperor’s Restaurant’?” Huang Xiaolong paused for a moment, deep in thought.

“Little Long, don’t listen to him, he’s just being arrogant. Thinking he’s above everyone just because he has money… This ‘Emperor’s Restaurant’ that he mentioned, is a five-star establishment. Their dining rooms claim to be amongst the most expensive in Binhai, offering the priciest Japanese cuisine, the most expensive steaks, the most expensive Italian food… I heard people say that a single meal there can cost, on average, over ten thousand yuan…” Su Xiaoman tugged Huang Xiaolong’s sleeve lightly. “Little Long, we don’t need to entertain him. Besides, those kinds of restaurants are just all show, no substance, they’re simply venues designed to cheat the wealthy. We can find a restaurant with character for ourselves…

“No, Sister Xiaoman, why don’t we just go to ‘Emperor’s Restaurant’ for lunch?” Huang Xiaolong proposed earnestly. “I won’t be kicked out. The owner of the restaurant would have to treat me with utmost respect when he sees me.”

“Pfftt-Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, that’s hilarious! Ha-ha-ha-ha!” Deng Wei broke into a fit of laughter on hearing those words. “Xiaoman, now I see it… Your country bumpkin boyfriend, apart from being poor, is also a braggart. He claims that even the restaurant owner has to respect him… Did you ask if he knows who the restaurant owner is? Boss Hong’s net worth is in the billions.

Even a member like me, who spends hundreds of thousands at the Emperor’s Restaurant every year, doesn’t have the privilege of knowing him… And you? A simple rural worker from the bottom rung of society, wouldn’t dare to even think of Boss Hong, let alone any one of the waitstaff in the restaurant could make you kneel! Ha-ha-ha, it’s pitiful, really pitiful, your IQ!”

“Huh-Hong Quantao, what’s so great about him? Today I will eat and drink for free!” Huang Xiaolong muttered under his breath, then said to Su Xiaoman assertively. “Sister Xiaoman, today I will treat you to something nice! Let’s go, we’ll drive there, let’s have lunch at the ‘Emperor’s Restaurant’ today!”
