1355 Extravagant
Lin Tao had already spent tens of thousands of yuan on those local specialties. Now that he wanted to buy something else, he almost didn’t have enough money in his credit card.
The credit card Papa Lin gave him only had a fixed limit of 100,000 yuan every month to prevent him from spending money recklessly.
However, in order to win over Jiang Yu, Lin Tao gritted his teeth and used the rest of the money to buy gifts.
After buying the gift, there was not a single cent left in his credit card.
With a heavy gift in hand, he once again visited Jiang Yu.
Mei Shuang opened the door again. She saw the man at the door. It was the man who had just come a few days ago. Her expression was a little puzzled. “Mr. Lin, right? What are you doing here this time?”
“I’m here to look for Miss Jiang Yu.” Lin Tao smiled and said, “Is she at home?”
“I’m sorry, Miss Jiang Yu is not at home.” Mei Shuang said.
In fact, Jiang Yu was at home, but she had told Mei Shuang that if a man named Lin Tao and a woman named Chu Jie came to look for her, she could just say that she was not at home and that she did not know when she would be back.
“Not at home? It’s okay, I’ll wait for her here.” Lin Tao said and was about to enter the house.
“Wait a moment…” Mei Shuang hurriedly tried to stop him, but Lin Tao had already walked in and sat down on the sofa.
“You can go and do your own things. I’ll just sit here and wait for Miss Jiang Yu.” Lin Tao said to Mei Shuang.
Mei Shuang walked over awkwardly and said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Lin. We don’t allow outsiders to enter this place. If there’s nothing urgent, you can go back first. When Miss Jiang Yu comes back, I will tell her that you came today.”
“Since I’m already here, I’m your guest. It’s fine if you don’t entertain guests, but why are you chasing me away?” Lin Tao was a little unhappy. “Miss Jiang Yu should have seen your attitude before she fired you.”
Mei Shuang was angry. She frowned and looked at Lin Tao. Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, she could only angrily go to the study to look for Jiang Yu.
Lin Tao was sitting on the sofa. He could sit still at first, but after receiving a call, he couldn’t sit still anymore.
The call was from Lin Tao’s father.
“What’s with your credit card? Why is there not a single cent left?” The first thing Papa Lin said when he called was to question Lin Tao. “What did you buy outside behind my back?”
Lin Tao paused. “Dad, how did you know?”
“That’s the credit card I gave you. How do you think I knew?” Papa Lin was furious. “If it wasn’t for the text message notification on my phone, I wouldn’t have known that my credit card was empty! You prodigal brat, always buying some strange things behind my back, right?”
“Not really. Dad, I bought some very normal things.” Lin Tao quickly explained.
“What is normal? Explain to me, what is normal?” Papa Lin’s voice sounded as if he had been angry for a long time. “I want to see what kind of normal thing can cost 100,000 yuan!”
Lin Tao didn’t dare to say anything. He could only say vaguely, “It’s just a very ordinary thing. It’s something that comes from a family like ours. Isn’t anything worth more than 100,000 yuan?”
“You still dare to quibble?” Papa Lin was angry. “I’m telling you, you have to tell me what you bought today! If you don’t tell me, I’ll terminate your credit card next month!”
“It’s really just some ordinary jewelry!” Lin Tao shouted, “Don’t tell me you’re pursuing a girl without even buying her some ordinary jewelry?”
“Can ordinary jewelry cost 100,000 yuan? I think you’re lying to me!” Papa Lin was furious. “I’m warning you. Return all those jewelry right now. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait for the news of freezing your credit cards next month!”
“Dad, can you not mess around at this time? Now is the most important time. Can you stop causing trouble?” Lin Tao was getting impatient. “Do you know who I’m giving the gift to? If you knew who it was, you would probably ask me to buy an even more expensive gift!”
“No matter who it is, it’s not right for you to buy such an expensive thing before the matter has been concluded! You can’t earn a single cent, and you’re spending my money. How dare you talk to me like this? Do you think my money came from the wind?” Papa Lin questioned, “I didn’t raise you for so many years just to let you waste my money!”
