Rich Parents Found Me After I Got a Tycoon System? Yeah, I'm Not Interested

Chapter 213: Chapter 213: The Old Man at the Lot Exclaims, "666!

Yun Zijin’s comment made Lu Yunque swallow the words he was about to say—he had been hoping to follow her back to Xingyu Mansion and score a free dinner.

"Alright, then. Have them find a place to park."

Parking on the side of the road was not an option. Traffic enforcement in Dijing was strict.

Fortunately, they got lucky. They didn’t have to drive far before they spotted a small parking lot with open spots.

The three cars pulled into the parking lot one after another. They stopped in the aisle, quickly switched vehicles, and then drove back out.

Watching this maneuver, the old man minding the lot couldn’t help but exclaim his approval.

’It has to be the young folks. That was a really slick move.’

After Lu Yunque and Yun Zijin parted ways, the Cullinan split off from the other two cars at the next intersection.

The Lu Family’s Old Mansion and Xingyu Mansion were in different directions.

It was almost 8:00 p.m. by the time Yun Zijin got back to Xingyu Mansion.

Dropping Li Yuexing off at his apartment complex had taken quite a while.

Fortunately, Wang Minli had been coordinating with the kitchen based on Yun Zijin’s travel updates. So, when Yun Zijin arrived back at Xingyu Mansion, she was just in time for a freshly cooked dinner.

Coming home to a hot meal was pure bliss.

＊

When Su Mengyao and Qin Sitong found out Yun Zijin and Lu Yunque were back from their trip, they showed up at Xingyu Mansion first thing the next morning to ambush her.

"I was planning a spontaneous trip for us girls during the National Day holiday, but I didn’t expect President Xiao Lu to beat me to the punch."

Su Mengyao sat on the living room sofa, her hand instinctively reaching for the cherries on the coffee table.

’Things always taste better at someone else’s house.’

"If you’d told me earlier, I would have gone with you."

’Before she and Lu Yunque left for C City, she hadn’t heard a single one of them say anything about a trip.’

"I didn’t get the chance to bring it up! But it’s fine. There are plenty of fun places in Dijing, too."

"I heard you guys mention Liuyue Hot Spring Villa last time. I’ve never been. Should we go again?"

The Wangyou Milk Tea Shop’s business was booming, making Qin Sitong something of a little rich girl herself. When she had the chance, she also wanted to experience the lifestyle of the truly wealthy.

"Sure! Should I invite a couple more of the girls? They’re the ones you met at the villa last time, Zhu Yuehua and Cheng Yushu."

As soon as Su Mengyao said their names, Yun Zijin remembered them.

’She hadn’t really interacted with them much, though. It seemed they hadn’t seen each other since that last time at the hot spring villa.’

Yun Zijin had no objections. Her impression of Zhu Yuehua and Cheng Yushu was pretty good, but she wondered what Qin Sitong thought.

So, Yun Zijin turned to look at Qin Sitong.

"I’m fine with it."

’If Su Mengyao was the one inviting them,’ Qin Sitong thought, ’they probably weren’t difficult people.’

"There’s no time like the present. Why don’t we go today? I’ll call them right now."

Zhu Yuehua and Cheng Yushu had both received a typical socialite’s upbringing, so Su Mengyao wasn’t the least bit worried that they wouldn’t have time.

As far as Su Mengyao knew, both had been living leisurely at home since graduating from college.

Their days consisted of either shopping for clothes at one mall or checking out new handbags at another.

Or perhaps they would take up some cultured hobbies like painting, illustration, or the art of tea to refine their sensibilities.

While Su Mengyao went to make the phone call, Wang Minli approached.

Qin Sitong, ever perceptive, scooted a little farther away to give them space.

"Miss, after you and Mr. Lu left for C City on the first, a Mr. Lin Yan stopped by.

He was told you were on a trip and asked me to notify him once you returned.

It was too late to mention it last night, but I remembered this morning and came to tell you right away."

Wang Minli had a feeling that Lin Yan must have come about the Moonlight Grass.

His timing had just been a bit unfortunate.

"I see. Tell him to come over tomorrow."

Yun Zijin had guessed the same thing as Wang Minli.

"Understood."

Having received Yun Zijin’s clear instructions, Wang Minli took her leave.

Just then, Su Mengyao returned from her phone call, a wide smile on her face. Clearly, the invitation had been a success.

"Are they both coming?"

Su Mengyao nodded. "They said they’ll definitely be there on time. Once we’ve settled on the details, I’ll send them a message."

’Neither of her girls had disappointed her,’ Su Mengyao thought, quite pleased.

Yun Zijin and Qin Sitong didn’t invite anyone else, and just like that, the impromptu hot spring villa party was formed.

"It’s 10:00 a.m. now. That gives us two hours to get ready. Let’s head over after lunch."

’That way, they could also have dinner at the villa in the evening.’

Su Mengyao and Qin Sitong had no objections. As long as they were quick about it, two hours was more than enough time.

"I’ll contact the villa now and have them prepare a large, luxurious courtyard for us."

’With five people, the small pool and courtyard from last time wouldn’t be big enough.’

Su Mengyao was the expert on these matters, and Yun Zijin and Qin Sitong were more than happy to let her take the lead.

Lu Yunque had let his work pile up for three days to go on the trip with Yun Zijin, so he dove into workaholic mode the very next morning. He was completely unaware that, for the time being, Yun Zijin had already forgotten all about him.

Finally, at noon, the trio of friends officially set out from Xingyu Mansion.

Zhu Yuehua and Cheng Yushu set off separately from their own homes.

At 1:00 p.m., the five girls had their grand rendezvous at Liuyue Hot Spring Villa.

"Zijin! I can’t believe we’re meeting here for the second time."

Both Cheng Yushu and Zhu Yuehua felt that fate worked in mysterious ways.

They had missed the grand opening of Huan Yan Fang because they were both out of town for a piano competition.

Who would have thought that, after all this time, their second meeting would once again be at Liuyue Hot Spring Villa.

"I didn’t expect it, either."

"I wouldn’t have even realized that if you hadn’t mentioned it!"

It was only when she heard Cheng Yushu and Zhu Yuehua say this that it dawned on Su Mengyao.

"Looks like you two are destined to be around hot springs!"

"You’re not wrong about that."

Cheng Yushu thought for a moment and had to agree with Su Mengyao.

"And we have a new friend! Hello! My name is Zhu Yuehua."

Zhu Yuehua noticed Qin Sitong seemed a little left out, so she spoke up to bring her into the conversation.

"Hello, my name is Qin Sitong."

"Cheng Yushu!"

"I don’t think we need an introduction. You all know us,"

Su Mengyao said, gesturing to herself and Yun Zijin.

"Right, right. Didn’t you say you booked a big courtyard? Let’s go!"

Cheng Yushu urged.

Su Mengyao took out her membership card and approached the front desk, the other girls following behind her.

The receptionist took her membership card and looked up the reservation. "You’ve booked the Qu Shui Liangshang deluxe courtyard. Please go this way, cross the bridge, and it’s at the very end of the path."

Just then, an attendant came over to guide them.

It had to be said, there was a reason Liuyue Hot Spring Villa was so successful. Its service alone surpassed that of eighty percent of the hot spring resorts in Dijing, and maybe even the entire country.

"It’s a bit of a walk from here. If you ladies prefer not to, the villa has dedicated sightseeing carts available. If you’d like, I can call one over for you."
