After Catching The Rich And Old-Fashioned Daddy Chapter 9
byChapter 9 God of Wealth
Hug Daddy’s thighs tight!
The vehicles started to merge into the busy traffic flow. Hong Kong Island looked like a shining pearl at night, with lights and bustling lights everywhere.
Shao Tingyue had been closing his eyes and concentrating since he got in the car. His facial features were sharp and three-dimensional, like a resting and dormant beast.
The car windows blocked out most of the noise, except for the faint sound of the air conditioner.Li Chu was a little tired after an afternoon of shopping. He was rubbing his sore eyes and his head was shaking.
“Does that person have a good relationship with you just now?” Shao Tingyue’s voice suddenly sounded, low and gentle, which seemed particularly clear in the quiet car.
Li Chu was so startled that he felt sleepy for most of his life. He blinked his eyes, which were still a little wet, and realized that the person he was asking was Jia Ming.
“Not… particularly good.” Li Chu tilted his head and thought for a while, with a serious expression, “But he is a good person. If he hadn’t secretly told me to run away at the bar, I might have been captured by those people…”
As he talked about it later, Li Chu’s voice gradually became softer, and he was still a little embarrassed to mention what happened before.
Shao Tingyue’s eyes stayed on his face for a moment, then suddenly changed the topic: “Where’s the one named Wen Sitong? Liang Wei said that you two were living together before.”
Li Chu was startled for a moment and cursed quietly in his heart.
It’s true that he stayed at Wen Sitong’s house before, but it was really just a bed on the floor. Why was it so strange for Shao Tingyue to say the word “cohabitation”.
“Sister Sitong is my savior. I just came to Hong Kong City knowing nothing and being penniless. She took me back to her home and took me in without hesitation.”
Shao Tingyue’s black eyes flashed slightly, and his tone was unclear, “You have quite a few saviors.”
Li Chu was choked by what he said. He was confused and a little unconvinced. What’s wrong with so many saviors?Haven’t you ever heard of relying on friends when you go out?
Also, for Shao Tingyue, who has lived in the cloud since childhood and controlled a huge business empire, it is probably difficult to understand the plight of people at the bottom like them.
The carriage became even quieter, with only the sound of the two breathing.
At this moment, an unsatisfactory “gurgling” sound sounded in the car.
Li Chu’s face instantly turned red and he subconsciously covered his stomach.Usually I don’t make such a loud noise when I’m hungry. What’s going on today?
Shao Tingyue also heard it, turned his head and asked, “Are you hungry?”
Li Chu couldn’t help but nod or shake his head, so he had to admit: “Well… I’m a little hungry.”
Shao Tingyue pondered for a moment, then quietly asked the driver to divert to a nearby Western restaurant.
Li Chu was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that Shao Tingyue would change his itinerary just because he was hungry.
He whispered: “Thank you, uncle.”
The car quickly stopped at the entrance of the restaurant. Shao Tingyue was obviously a regular customer, and the waiter guided the two of them to a quiet and secluded window seat.
When Li Chu came to this era, he had only eaten in tea restaurants and food stalls. In a restaurant like this that looked very expensive at first glance, the salary for washing dishes would probably be higher.
The menu delivered by the waiter was in French with pictures. Li Chu was dazzled by it and had no idea how to choose.
When Shao Tingyue saw this, he directly made the decision for him.
He ordered pan-fried foie gras, pan-fried cod steak with white wine sauce, and dessert. He only ordered a simple steak and salad.
While waiting for the food to be served, the atmosphere was somewhat silent. Li Chu didn’t dare to look around and just stared at the street scene with people coming and going outside the window.
Here you can see the towering office buildings in Central. The later famous Bank of China Building has not yet been built, but it does not affect the splendor of this land.
The dishes were served quickly and beautifully presented.
The cod fish in front of me was fried to perfection, and the sauce was rich. Just looking at the presentation made people want to eat.
When Li Chu became hungry, he didn’t care about dining etiquette and started eating seriously.
He was very satisfied with his meal, and his expression relaxed unconsciously. Occasionally, he would slightly squint his eyes, like a satiated kitten.
Shao Ting ate less and moved gracefully. He spent most of his time looking at Li Chu opposite him who was concentrating on food.
The meal was easier than Li Chu imagined, and his eyebrows relaxed a lot as he was healed by the delicious food.
After paying the bill and leaving the restaurant, the two of them walked to the parking place one after another.
A little girl timidly stopped them on the side of the road.
She was carrying a small bamboo basket in her hand, which contained some hand-woven colorful hand ropes and small animal pendants. The workmanship was not exquisite, but it was quite childlike.
“Sir, buy a hand rope, please stay safe…” The little girl’s voice was thin, her eyes were big, and she looked expectantly at Li Chu who was walking behind.
Li Chu stopped and saw the little girl’s washed white skirt, and couldn’t help but squat down: “Sister, why are you still out so late?”
The little girl glanced at her mother who was pushing an ice cream cart not far away, and she spoke very smartly: “Brother, I’m waiting for mommy to finish work. Do you want to buy it? In addition to the bracelets and keychains, they are all handmade by my sister. I am very proud of them!” (Very cute!)
In the basket, a knitted piggy keychain caught his eye.He was wearing a set of blue denim overalls and a fisherman’s hat, which was simple and round, and decorated with two buttons to make a pig’s nose.
Li Chu picked it up and pinched it. The more he looked at it, the cuter it became. Just as he was about to take out the money, he reached into his empty pocket and then remembered that he was penniless.
The little girl was still looking at him eagerly.
Li Chu suddenly became embarrassed. He looked at the little pig in his hand in embarrassment, then looked at the little girl’s expectant eyes, and finally decided to ask Shao Tingyue to borrow money.
Shao Tingyue was tall and sharp-featured. He was standing on a dimly lit street corner. Even if he didn’t speak, there was an invisible sense of oppression surrounding him.
Li Chu moved over and said in a low voice: “Second uncle, can you lend me some money?”
After saying that, his ears started to feel hot uncontrollably. Asking this cold-faced second uncle, who looked like the King of Hell, to borrow money felt even more nerve-wracking than being fined to copy the family rules two hundred times.
The halo under the night softened the young man’s facial contours, and his naturally watery eyes were filled with a little prayer,
Shao Tingyue glanced at the little girl selling handicrafts, and then he looked at Li Chu’s little face with the word “lack of money” written all over it.
He paused, and Yingting’s brows furrowed: “It’s been some time since you returned to Shao Mansion. Didn’t the old lady and Uncle Ming arrange daily pocket money for you?”
Li Chu blinked blankly, then shook his head, his expression a bit unconsciously aggrieved: “No… I haven’t seen a penny.”
He whispered, not to mention pocket money. He originally thought of earning some money from the Shao family and running away, but… his pocket is cleaner than his face now. He worked in bars and tea restaurants before, so he was not so poor.
Fortunately, he spent most of his time in the mansion and had nothing to spend money on.The only time I went out to play with Shao Mingzhu, I was caught when I came back…
Thinking of these sad past events, Li Chu couldn’t help but curl his lips.
Shao Ting frowned even more as he looked at the aggrieved expression on his face.
Without saying anything more, he took out his wallet from his suit bag and handed it to Li Chu.
Li Chu took the heavy wallet and looked up at Shao Tingyue. His expression was calm and not impatient.
He pursed his lips and showed a crooked smile: “Thank you, uncle.”
Opening the wallet, there were Hong Kong dollars of different denominations and several cards of different colors.
Li Chu carefully took out a thousand-yuan Hong Kong dollar from the middle. After thinking about it, he felt it was too much and was hesitating whether to change it to a smaller denomination.
“Take it.” Shao Tingyue’s voice sounded next to him, still in a calm tone, “No need to look for it.”
Li Chu said “Oh”, no longer hesitated, turned around and quickly returned to the little girl with the thousand-yuan bill, handed the money to her: “Sister, I want that cowboy piggy.”
When the little girl saw the big bill, her eyes widened and she waved her hands quickly: “Brother… you don’t need so much, only ten yuan is enough…”
Li Chu smiled and pointed at the cold-faced Shao Tingyue next to him, “That uncle gave it to you. Don’t worry, accept it. You and your mother will finish work and go home early.”
After saying that, she put the money into her little bamboo basket and picked up the chubby little woolen pig.
The little girl looked at the huge sum of money, then at Li Chu and the imposing man behind him.As if he suddenly remembered something, he took out another little pig in a suit and with a cold expression from the bottom of the basket and stuffed it into his hand.
“Thank you, brother! This one is for you too! It’s a pair with that one!” The little girl’s voice was clear, and after speaking, she ran to her mother who was not far away with the basket.
Li Chu looked at the two piglets in his hands, one silly and one cool, and couldn’t help but smile again and waved to her.
Until he returned to Shao Mansion, Li Chu kept holding the two piglets and playing with them.This little pig in a suit has a cool expression and really looks a bit like Shao Tingyue.
He couldn’t help but pull the piggy’s ears evilly, his eyes narrowed in a small arc, and a small mole on the tip of his nose shone brightly.
Shao Tingyue glanced at Li Chu’s small movements, pressed the corners of his lips, and called Uncle Ming directly into the study.
After a moment, Uncle Ming knocked on the door and came in with a respectful expression: “Second Young Master, are you looking for me?”
“Well.” Shao Ting leaned further back in his chair, tapped his fingers on the solid wood tabletop, and asked in a calm tone, “It’s been a while since Chu Tsai came back. How are his daily pocket expenses arranged at the mansion?”
Upon hearing this, Uncle Ming immediately patted his forehead lightly: “Oh! Look at my memory! I really deserve a beating! The old lady just finished the operation and everyone’s mind was on that. For a moment, she actually ignored the matter of Young Master Xiaochu! It was my negligence. Please punish me, Second Young Master.”
Shao Tingyue waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.
He naturally knew that Uncle Ming did not mean to be negligent, but that Li Chu had a special status and could not keep up with many processes for a while.
Shao Tingyue’s tone remained unchanged and he continued to give instructions: “Starting from tomorrow, I will transfer 50,000 U.S. dollars every month from my private account to Li Chu’s name. You go to the bank to open a separate account for him, deposit it on time every month, and complete the procedures as soon as possible.”
Fifty thousand dollars a month?
A trace of surprise flashed in Uncle Ming’s eyes. This amount was nothing to a family like the Shao family.
But for a young master like Li Chu who has just returned and has not yet participated in family affairs, this pocket money is very generous, even more than the young ladies in the second room of the Shao family.
The second young master’s move…
Uncle Ming recovered his thoughts, his expression returned to normal, and he accepted the order and retreated.
…
Li Chu and the old lady behaved for a while, and when they returned to the bedroom, the servants had already sorted out all their trophies for the day.
The cabinets in the cloakroom are full of hangings, and everything from outerwear to underwear, shoes, socks, and ties is neatly arranged according to his preferences.
Li Chu had the illusion that he would stay here forever, but he quickly shook his head in denial.
At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door, it was Uncle Ming.
Li Chu opened the door and saw Uncle Ming standing by the door holding a tray. He recognized the velvet box on it, which was the one Shao Tingyue went to pick up in the afternoon.There is a thick brown paper bag next to it, which is bulging.
“Excuse me, Master Xiaochu. This is a gift prepared by the old lady for you. It is also a celebration of your official return home.” Uncle Ming gently handed over the tray.
Li Chu opened the box in confusion. Inside was an exquisite butterfly-shaped gemstone brooch, inlaid with pure sapphires and diamond pearls. It shone luxuriously under the light. It was obvious at a glance that it was worth a lot of money.
Uncle Ming’s smile did not change, and he continued: “The second young master has ordered that fifty thousand US dollars will be transferred from his private account to your personal account every month. This is for this month.”
Li Chu opened his eyes wide: “!!!”
Uncle Ming looked at his stunned look, the smile in his eyes deepened, but he didn’t say much: “Everything has been delivered. If the young master has no other instructions, I will leave first.”
“Oh…Okay, thank you, Uncle Ming.” Li Chu was holding the brown paper bag blankly, and was hit by the wealth in his pocket, and he suddenly lost his mind.
Uncle Ming quietly backed out and closed the door.
The room became quiet again, and Li Chu stood there, taking several seconds to react.
“Ah——!”
He let out a low exclamation and threw himself onto the bed, burying his face into the fluffy down pillow.
Fifty thousand!Fifty thousand a month!And it’s a beautiful knife!!!
This is simply getting rich overnight!No, it was an instant summit!
Li Chu rolled around on the bed. Although he did want to get some benefits from his identity as the young master of the Shao family, he never expected to get rich so directly!
No matter what happens in the future, at least now, he has money!Lots and lots of money!
It turns out that Shao Tingyue is not the Prince of Hell, but the God of Wealth!From now on, let alone calling him uncle, you can call him Daddy!!
