Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Wangyou Milk Tea
"That’s not considered big? My family only has our own house in the suburbs because my dad and grandpa are from here.
"But if we had to buy a place in Dijing now, I’m afraid we couldn’t even scrape together enough money for a bathroom."
The property prices in Dijing were just too expensive. A regular working-class family basically couldn’t afford it.
"But houses in the suburbs are big. You have to look on the bright side."
When it came to the issue of buying a house, Yun Zijin didn’t really know what to say.
All of her properties were gifts from Randomly Spend; she had never actually bought one herself.
"I’ve given up on ever being able to afford a house in Dijing. I’ll be thanking my lucky stars if I can just support myself after graduation."
Qin Sitong had a very clear understanding of her own limitations.
Yun Zijin didn’t say anything. She wanted to find a way for Qin Sitong to make money, but it wasn’t something she could figure out in a moment’s notice.
While the two were talking, Wang Minli came up with a train of servants carrying dishes.
"This steamed fish head with diced hot peppers is something the Young Miss said Miss Qin enjoys. I hope it’s to your liking. And also..."
With every dish that was served, Wang Minli would give a brief introduction.
And with every dish, Qin Sitong’s eyes grew a little brighter. It was obvious she was thoroughly enjoying it.
"Zijin, your chef is amazing! It seems like they’re a master of everything, whether it’s southern or northern cuisine!"
Usually, if a chef wanted to be truly good, they specialized in one style of cuisine. A chef who could master two or more could be called exceptionally talented.
"Oh, it’s not just one chef in the kitchen. These dishes were made by several different chefs."
The chefs hired for the house had come through Wang Minli’s connections.
After all, she used to be a maid in a wealthy household and knew some private chefs who cooked for the rich.
Wang Minli had sent messages to anyone she thought was good and was currently unemployed.
Unexpectedly, a whole group of them showed up. Yun Zijin didn’t want them to have made the trip for nothing, so she had each of them cook their signature dish.
After one taste, Yun Zijin, with a wave of her hand, decided to keep all of them.
Besides, she wasn’t short on the money for their salaries.
Meanwhile, Qin Sitong had fallen into a familiar silence.
’Poverty really does limit my imagination.’
Once she was full and satisfied, Qin Sitong finally had the mental space for other things. A flash of inspiration hit her, and she thought of this year’s freshman welcome party.
"Oh, right! I heard from someone in my club that for this year’s freshman welcome party, the university has invited back a lot of outstanding alumni.
"So many people are scrambling for a chance to perform on stage. Do you want me to sign you up?"
"For someone who wants to be a wage-earner after graduation, it’s a great opportunity, but I don’t need it."
Yun Zijin could barely manage all the properties and shops in her name. Working for someone else would just be a waste of her time.
"You’re not going to look for a job? Then what do you want to do? Start a business?"
Thinking about how Yun Zijin was already a multi-millionaire with cars and houses, Qin Sitong felt that starting a business would be a great choice for her.
"I don’t have any financial pressure right now, and I’ve almost finished all my required credits. As long as I attend my classes diligently in my final year, I’ll graduate without any problems.
"But if you have any ideas, you can tell me. If nothing else, should you want to start a business, I can at least help with the investment."
This was, in a way, Yun Zijin making a promise to Qin Sitong.
"You said it! I’m holding you to that!"
Hearing Yun Zijin say she would invest in her, Qin Sitong couldn’t have been happier.
Even if she didn’t have any entrepreneurial ideas, she was overjoyed just by Yun Zijin’s kind gesture.
When girls start chatting, it can go on forever.
It wasn’t until Mei Lin opened the door and came in that the two realized with a start that it was, somehow, already 9 PM.
Yun Zijin still hadn’t completed her spending mission for the day. She quickly had Mei Lin transfer five million yuan from her account to a charity foundation’s account.
With Mei Lin’s abilities, she could have made the transfer without even a phone or computer. But since Qin Sitong was watching, Mei Lin took out a laptop.
Her hands moved in a blur, and before long, Yun Zijin’s phone received a bank text message confirming a five-million-yuan expenditure.
At the same time, a notification announcing the completion of the spending mission sounded in Yun Zijin’s mind.
[Spending Mission: Spend ¥5,000,000.00 before midnight tonight - Completed]
[Mission Reward: 3x rebate triggered. ¥15,000,000.00 has been deposited into the host’s savings card. Reward: Wangyou Milk Tea recipe and 2 sample cups. These have been sent to the system inventory. Please check.]
Yun Zijin was a bit surprised to hear that the reward was a milk tea recipe and two sample cups.
The Rose Essential Oil from last time already defied common sense. This Wangyou Milk Tea recipe sounded unscientific just from its name alone.
After all, Randomly Spend didn’t get its name for nothing. Since this milk tea recipe was named Wangyou, which meant "forget worries," it surely had some sort of worry-forgetting effect.
She just didn’t know what form this "worry-forgetting" would take.
"Oh, I think Aunt Wang said the kitchen was making us a couple of milk teas. I’ll go see if they’re ready."
Yun Zijin hadn’t forgotten that Randomly Spend had given her two samples. One taste would reveal what kind of "worry-forgetting" it was.
Before Qin Sitong could react, Yun Zijin was already running toward the kitchen.
At this time, the chefs and servants had all gone to the 35th floor to eat, so when Yun Zijin entered the kitchen, it was empty.
This made things convenient for Yun Zijin. After checking the kitchen and confirming no one else was there, she took the two sample cups of Wangyou Milk Tea out of her system inventory.
Looking at the two extra-large cups of Wangyou Milk Tea in her hands, Yun Zijin didn’t quite know how to describe her feelings.
But she had already taken them out, so Yun Zijin left the kitchen with the two milk teas.
Luckily, Qin Sitong didn’t know that the kitchen staff had all gone to the 35th floor, or else her excuse would have been exposed in a second.
Returning to the room, Yun Zijin gave one of the cups to Qin Sitong.
"This is a new milk tea the kitchen came up with. It’s called Wangyou. Want to give it a try?"
’If it tastes good,’ Yun Zijin thought, ’I could use the milk tea recipe as my investment and have Qin Sitong open a milk tea shop.’
With Wangyou Milk Tea as the signature drink, they wouldn’t have to worry about a lack of customers.
Qin Sitong stared hesitantly at the iridescent, shimmering colors inside the clear cup on the coffee table.
’The color is so vibrant, and it keeps changing... Is this really a normal milk tea? I won’t end up in the hospital after drinking this, will I?’
"Go on, drink it. I’m having one too. It won’t kill you."
Yun Zijin’s comment only made Qin Sitong more suspicious.
Yun Zijin, however, didn’t have so many reservations. She took a small sip. The taste was something she had never experienced before—indescribable, very unique, but delicious!
"It’s delicious, you have to try it! There are only two cups today. If you don’t drink it, I’ll give it to Aunt Wang!" frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Yun Zijin took another sip. For some reason, it tasted different from the first.
It reminded her of her childhood, when she would lie on a recliner with the matron of her orphanage, watching the stars. That was when she was at her most carefree.
