Today, I'm Going to Spend the Billionaire's Hundred Million Again-Chapter 573: Veiled Sarcasm
After the assistant director finished speaking, he exited the guesthouse, telling his assistant that he was going to eat.
Sun Lei Lei, hearing this, knew it was quite late, and everyone was hungry, so she volunteered to go to the kitchen first to make some food for everyone.
After Rong Qingqing toured the guesthouse with a few others, she understood why the assistant director was laughing in the car.
Such a large guesthouse needs renovation, but the renovation budget is only a hundred thousand, which means a lot of cost-saving and hands-on work.
Otherwise, the wage for finding workers alone could nearly use up half the funds.
The first floor of the guesthouse has a lobby and restaurant; the second and third floors are guestrooms. The top floor has a large terrace, with some flowers and plants planted, likely to protect this somewhat aged house, so there aren’t many plants, mostly potted.
The staff dormitory and the owner’s living area are in the part of the top floor that does not have a terrace.
This means there is basically no need for renovation or changes on the top floor.
The focus is really on the three floors below.
After the tour, the four who were starving headed to the kitchen.
"What’s for lunch?" Luo Cheng asked as he walked in.
"The refrigerator is well-stocked, but everyone’s hungry, so I thought I’d make some simple beef noodles. Everyone can just make do for lunch."
After saying that, Sun Lei Lei asked, "Is there anyone among us who can’t eat beef? Or can’t handle spicy food?"
"Rong Qingqing and I can eat a little spicy, but not super spicy," Zhao Junxi replied.
"I’ve heard of not being able to eat pork, but who can’t eat beef?" Luo Cheng asked curiously.
"There is. My previous assistant’s customs were not to eat beef, not even beef soup," Sun Lei Lei explained. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
"Every place has its customs," Rong Qingqing said offhandedly. Seeing Sun Lei Lei cutting beef, Rong Qingqing rolled up her sleeves, "Let me help wash the vegetables. I’m not great at cooking, but I’m pretty handy at washing vegetables."
There were some vegetables in the sink, evidently prepared by Sun Lei Lei to wash after cutting the beef.
As Rong Qingqing rolled up her sleeves, the watch on her wrist was naturally exposed.
A watch worth over a million was thus revealed to Yu Xiaoqian, and her expression changed.
"Rong Qingqing, this watch is from your fiancé, right?" Yu Xiaoqian asked, "If I remember correctly, it costs over a million, right?"
"Yes," Rong Qingqing nodded, "Just bought it a few days ago abroad."
"You just bought it and you’re wearing it for the show? You really like that watch," Yu Xiaoqian commented.
"I put it on after I bought it, not just for today. If I didn’t like it, why would I buy it?" When Rong Qingqing first put it on, Shen Jue was in an especially good mood that day.
Rong Qingqing didn’t take the hint, acting as if she didn’t understand what Yu Xiaoqian was insinuating. Yu Xiaoqian felt a bit awkward speaking further and, seeing Rong Qingqing busy washing vegetables, stopped trying to talk to her.
No one noticed that Sun Lei Lei’s motion while cutting meat paused for a few seconds when Yu Xiaoqian and Rong Qingqing were talking about her watch. Sun Lei Lei stopped and glanced at Rong Qingqing’s wrist.
When Rong Qingqing took Shen Jue to buy that watch, Sun Lei Lei was there.
That’s why she said, Shen Jue truly indulges Rong Qingqing.
Not to mention Sun Lei Lei’s other qualities, but her cooking skills are undeniably great.
