Chapter 73: Chapter 73: Looking Down on People with a Dog’s Eyes

Yang Xue was still worrying about what to do if they didn’t have enough money for later, while Yang Yu already had a plan in mind.

If it weren’t for the fact that Ling Ya, his brother’s wife-to-be, seemed to be a decent person, Yang Yu really wouldn’t have wanted to come.

But since his brother had finally found a good girl, he, as the older brother, naturally had to settle the matter for him.

As the two brothers entered the private room, Yang Xue introduced them to the Ling family: "Uncle, Auntie, this is my brother, Yang Yu."

Yang Yu greeted both politely: "Mr. Ling, Mrs. Ling, hello."

Ling Ya’s mother couldn’t even be bothered to glance at Yang Yu, while Mr. Ling only gave a token greeting: "Hmm, hello, have a seat. Waiter, serve the food."

Seeing her parents behaving like this, Ling Ya sensed something was off: "Dad, Mom, what are you doing..."

"Now that Yang Xue’s brother is here, let’s speak frankly," Mr. Ling said. "Mr. Yang, I heard that you used to work on construction sites?"

"That was in the past; now I run a small business," Yang Yu replied with a faint smile. "Mr. Ling, if there’s something you want to say, just say it."

"Good," Mr. Ling nodded. "I don’t think Yang Xue is good enough for our Xiao Ya, but she, being naive and inexperienced in society’s hardships, insists on being with Yang Xue. So, I’ll give Yang Xue a chance. The meal today costs a total of two hundred thousand, and you are paying."

"Additionally, our business has suffered losses, and we urgently need one million in cash. If you can help us cover this one million, we will no longer oppose their relationship. Mr. Yang, what do you think?"

Yang Xue immediately became anxious: "Uncle, Auntie, how can you do this?"

Madam Ling sneered: "What are we doing? Isn’t this a very practical matter? I’ll tell you the truth—today’s meal is being hosted by the owner of this grand hotel. He’s taken a liking to Xiao Ya and is willing to give two million outright to help us out of our crisis."

"If it weren’t for Xiao Ya’s father wanting to give Yang Xue a chance, you poor brothers wouldn’t even have the qualifications to step foot in this hotel!"

"Dad, Mom, you’ve gone too far!" Ling Ya’s eyes reddened with urgency and tears kept falling. "You clearly promised it was just a meeting between parents, why create such a mess?"

Madam Ling snorted coldly: "If we hadn’t said that, how would we have gotten you, lovesick girl, to arrange a meeting with them?"

"Don’t worry, your brother’s here," Yang Yu patted his own shoulder. "One hundred and twenty thousand is nothing."

"Is that so? Such confidence," a clean-shaven middle-aged man entered with a smile on his face. "May I know where this gentleman works?"

Seeing the middle-aged man arrive, Madam Ling’s face immediately showed a sycophantic smile: "Mr. Bao, we said we would handle it, you don’t need to show up."

"Dad, Mom, you really want me to be with this kind of man?" Ling Ya was completely shocked. "Are you selling your daughter? He’s the same age as Dad!"

"What do you know? Older men know how to cherish women, and he’s successful in business—to say nothing of how much better he is than this penniless kid by numerous multiples," Madam Ling shamelessly brainwashed her own daughter, leaving Yang Yu speechless.

In this day and age, some people really have no shame when it comes to money!

Yang Yu silently felt fortunate that his ancestors must have been emitting blue smoke from their graves, allowing him to unlock the "Yin Yang Nine Mysterious Scripture."

Otherwise, his brother’s lifelong happiness would’ve been in jeopardy.

"Mr. Shen, help me check the owner of Jinmao Hotel," he sent a message to Shen Silin, and then approached the middle-aged man, "Mr. Bao, isn’t it? How old are you now, and you still haven’t married, fighting over a bride with the younger folks?"

Bao Gang looked at Yang Yu with a teasing smile, "I was too busy building my career before and missed out on marriage, but there’s no rush now! Of course I’ll look for a younger bride, what’s wrong with that? What do you mean by ’fighting over’? This is fair competition!"

The waiter came in, setting dish after dish of delicious delicacies on the table.

"This steamed imperial king crab, eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight yuan; this pan-seared wagyu beef, six thousand six hundred and sixty-six yuan..." Bao Gang pointed at the dishes on the table, proudly showing off, "I can afford to treat Ling Ya to these, but what about you? I reckon you’d hesitate over a bowl of roadside spicy hotpot for half a day, wouldn’t you?"

Madam Ling chimed in, "I’ve said before, ordinarily, you wouldn’t even be qualified to come to such a high-end hotel!"

Facing such an attack, Yang Xue’s eyes also reddened, "Brother, I..."

"Ah Xue, don’t be scared. These days, those who start to put on airs with a little money are definitely not the truly rich and noble," Yang Yu earnestly looked at his younger brother. "I just want to ask you one thing, if you were a billionaire and Ling Ya was a Cinderella, would you still be with her?"

"Of course!" Yang Xue nodded firmly, then looked dejected, "But brother, I’m not a billionaire!"

"Not now, but who can tell about the future?" Yang Yu picked up his phone and looked at the message Shen Silin had sent him, a playful smile appearing on his face.

Shen Silin’s call soon followed: "Yang Yu, why are you checking up on Bao Gang?"

"Mr. Shen, it’s like this..." Yang Yu recounted the situation on his end, and Shen Silin couldn’t help but laugh, "It seems all of this is fate’s arrangement. I understand."

Seeing that Yang Yu didn’t show him any "respect," Bao Gang became angry, "What now? You still won’t give up? Still want to play some tricks?"

"Two hundred thousand, I’ll cover the cost of this meal." Yang Yu took out his phone and paid the bill directly, leaving Bao Gang and Mr. and Madam Ling agape: "He really paid the bill?"

They found it hard to believe that a bricklayer could possess two hundred thousand.

Even harder to believe was that he could give away those two hundred thousand without batting an eye!

"Fine," Bao Gang snorted, "Mr. Ling isn’t lacking the money for this meal, what he needs is one million in cash!"

Madam Ling also hurriedly said, "Yes, the one million is what’s most important!"

"One million?" Yang Yu laughed, "Your family has it, why should I give it to you?"

"Our family has it?" Madam Ling scoffed, "Even if we don’t have it, how do you know about it?"

"With Xiao Ya, of course!" Yang Yu said, "Xiao Ya, haven’t you checked how much balance is on the card I gave you?"

"What? That card?" Ling Ya took a long moment to realize, pulling out the bank card Yang Yu had given her from her bag, "Brother, are you saying there’s a million in here?"

Yang Yu smiled slightly, "Check it and see."

Ling Ya immediately linked the card and opened the mobile bank app.

"All this pretense, huh!" Madam Ling, while showing disdain, couldn’t resist taking a peek, and her expression froze instantly, "Two million!"
