Chapter 73: 73, don't skimp on money (Thanks to Lord Flyerton99!)
```
Twenty million!
System rocks!!
Yang Hao's eyes lit up, this was truly having someone hand you a pillow when you wanted a nap!
With a budget of twenty million, it was definitely time to go big.
"Yuyu, I think your suggestion is very good."
Yang Hao first affirmed, then asked, "You're an art student, so you must be good at decoration and design, right?"
"Um, I..."
Meng Chacha blinked her bright eyes, feeling a bit overwhelmed.
She remembered telling this Yang yesterday that she was studying folk dance at Jiangcheng Art College, which seemed to have little to do with decoration and design!
However, Meng Chacha was quick-witted. After a slight hesitation, she nodded seriously, "Yang, you appreciate art, and all forms of art are interrelated, after all."
"Although my major is folk dance, my understanding of decoration and design is also... cough cough, very profound!!"
Look, everyone, look!
All the ladies below, come and see how to chat!
Even though she knows you're spouting nonsense, she still goes along with it.
From now on, if anyone dares to call such an understanding sister a green tea bitch, I, Brother Opposite-the-Road, will be waiting for you!!
"Since that's the case, then I'll leave the decoration of the house to you, Yuyu!"
Yang Hao spoke with a serious face.
"Ah?"
"This..."
Meng Yuyu was somewhat surprised, but even more delighted.
When filming the vlog for receiving the house, she had already put herself in the perspective of the hostess, thinking about how to decorate.
Who would have thought the dream would come true!
Yang really left the house's decoration to her.
"Yang, I'm afraid I might not do well..."
Despite the thrill in her heart, Meng Yuyu hadn't been blinded by joy; she wanted to set expectations right so as not to anger Yang if she messed up the decoration.
"I trust your taste!"
Yang Hao gave Meng Yuyu a reassuring look, then added, "The budget is twenty million, and you must spend it all!"
"Don't save any money!!"
System's money is supposed to be spent, not saved!
"Oh..."
"Wait a minute!"
"How much is the budget???"
Meng Yuyu subconsciously agreed, then suddenly realized something was off about the number she heard.
Did he say twenty million???
Meng Chacha always maintained her composure in front of Yang Hao because she knew men liked women with stable emotions.
However, upon hearing the budget of twenty million, she couldn't help but exclaim.
The figure was so massive it was beyond Meng Yuyu's understanding of decoration; and mind you, this was just for the soft furnishings!
"Twenty million, try to spend it all!"
"You can plan it out in detail..."
Yang Hao was very pleased with Meng Chacha's reaction.
Putting up a twenty million B, it would be quite a letdown if there was no one to appreciate it.
"Alright, I got it!"
Meng Yuyu took a deep breath, striving to appear calm.
"You can drive, right?"
Yang Hao asked again.
"I can, but I'm not very skilled."
Meng Yuyu had gotten her driver's license a long time ago but didn't have a car.
Actually, with her income, affording a car worth a hundred thousand or so wasn't impossible, but little bitch preferred spending her money on cosmetics, clothes, and some luxury items.
"Go to Hengxin Mercedes-Benz 4S Store tomorrow and pick up a car. Just bring your ID card to complete the procedures; this car will be your reward for helping with the house, I can't let you labor for free."
```
Yang Hao pulled a fast one, disguising the "System" reward as if it were a personal remuneration from himself.
"This..."
Meng Yuyu was startled, happiness had come too suddenly, although everything she did was to cling to Yang's powerful coattails for the life she wanted.
But she hadn't expected repayment to come so swiftly, with Yang being so generous as to give away a Mercedes with a casual gesture.
"Yang, I was just lending a hand, let's forget about the car!"
Meng Chacha thought she needed to keep her cool, not get knocked senseless by the offer of a Mercedes, not let Yang think she was just after taking advantage.
"You're going to be busy next, running back and forth to various appliance and furniture stores, you'll need a car to get around."
"Just listen to me and that's that!"
Yang Hao straight up adopted the aura of a domineering CEO.
Since the "System" had bestowed the reward, he had to send the favor on its way.
"Uh, okay then."
"I'll do as you say, Yang!"
Meng Yuyu nodded obediently, the very image of a compliant little wife, her heart racing with excitement.
A Mercedes!
Even though he hadn't specified which model, it had to start at two or three hundred thousand at least!
Indeed, pausing private lessons to serve Yang wholeheartedly was the best decision!
Once holding on tightly to Yang's coattails, who needs any more lessons!
At this moment, the phone Yang Hao had placed on the table lit up, it was a WeChat message from his childhood friend Liu Zifeng.
The gathering was set for one-thirty in the afternoon.
It was now half past twelve, and Liu Zifeng was asking if Yang had left yet and mentioned he'd introduce him to a beautiful woman, urging him to come early if possible.
Yang Hao knew his childhood friend well enough; the "beautiful women" he talked about were likely bar girls, and he probably didn't even know their real names.
If they were spotted in a hotel by the cops, they'd be taken back to the station for questioning...
Then you end up tearfully telling the police: "Do you have to know the person's name to fall in love?"
Love is blind!
"I'm taking off now, give my lunch box to Xinyi!"
Yang Hao had just finished his meal for fat reduction, planning not to eat at the gathering later as he'd be drinking.
"Yang, I'll walk you out."
Meng Yuyu stood up as well; she was dressed quite normally today since there were no classes, lacking many little schemes.
Yang Hao didn't stop her, letting her escort him outside the store.
"Oh, and send me your bank card number!"
After climbing into the driver's seat, Yang Hao lowered the window to speak.
"Oh, sure."
Meng Yuyu nodded, thinking Yang must be planning to transfer some money so she could buy stuff for decorating the apartment.
She sent her frequently used bank account number to Yang Hao, watched his silhouette disappear around the corner in the U8, and then turned back to go inside the store.
"Yuyu, what's going on between you and Yang?"
"You've even skipped your private classes for him; you must have scored some benefits, right?"
Yu Lili, sitting behind the bar, had been eager to gossip; lately, her close girlfriend had thrown all her energy into Yang Hao, yet without any payoff, this so-called bestie secretly found some schadenfreude in that.
The relationship between besties is a fragile one, not discounting some truly good best friends, but fake ones certainly make up the majority.
Otherwise, sayings like "guard against fire, guard against theft, guard against best friends" wouldn't exist.
The examples of being betrayed by a bestie or being swindled by them are simply too numerous to count.
Zhou Ling was all ears on the side, eager for the gossip.
She had seen all the efforts Meng Yuyu had made and wondered whether such dedication would actually yield results. reading-here-on-MVLeMpYr
"Lili, whatever I do for Yang, I do willingly."
"I actually think Yang is a good guy; wealthy but unassuming, grounded, and someone worth entrusting with my life!"
Meng Yuyu spoke with a sincere expression.
"So what you're saying is, you're not in it for any rewards?" Yu Lili gave her so-called bestie an eye roll.
Meng Yuyu smiled playfully: "I'm not looking for rewards, no."
"But Yang won't have it!"
"He wants me to go to the Mercedes-Benz 4S Store tomorrow to pick up a car for running errands…"
