Chapter 347 (1/2)
Blinded
No matter what, Zhao Hao prioritized aesthetics over all else. He enjoyed making a show of himself before everyone else, so he had booked the entire restaurant.
This restaurant was not particularly luxurious, as Zhao Hao knew that Zhao Youyue was highly particular with her food. She prioritized food quality over everything else.
The Michelin had their stars. The Michelin’s Chinese counterpart would be Su, and they too awarded stars, up to 5 of them. Su had been created by the descendants of Su Dongpo; it was a system specially created to grade Chinese restaurants. In eastern China, a 5-star Su’s rating meant a lot, almost equaling that of a Michelin 3-star. If the restaurant had both a Michelin 3-star and a 5-star Su, it had to be really good stuff.
This Chinese restaurant was awarded a 4-star Su, but it was already a decent restaurant. If there were too many 5-star Su restaurants around, then the five stars would lose their value.
This restaurant was in a rural area. No paparazzi would be caught dead in this area. Zhao Hao already knew that his little cousin, Zhao Youyue was at the peak of her popularity, ever since she revealed her face. Her pure and perfect image, her intelligent wit and dry humor had already buried themselves in the hearts of many. If paparazzi ever took photos of him being together with Zhao Youyue, that would mean trouble.
Zhao Hao knew of his position and limitation. He used to brag about his wealth, not even batting an eyelid when the internet spread news about him crashing a million-dollar supercar, or about his interactions with Ding Yuncong or the funding his own E-sports team. All these had caused headlines back in the day.
In the eyes of most netizens, he was just another filthy rich braggart, living his life to its fullest. If he somehow got involved with his little cousin, it would affect her reputation; this was something he would prefer to avoid. It would be better if Zhao Youyue could retain her flawless reputation.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hao was envious of Ding Yuncong. He too bragged about his wealth and lived wild and free. Unexpectedly, he had a decent reputation, as a rich 2G with a shameless attitude…
Zhao Hao could only comfort himself by saying Ding Yuncong had average looks. Zhao Hao was too handsome compared to him. The genetics of the Zhao family were too outstanding, he believed that his little cousin, Youyue would be able to impress the audience as well!
This time, Zhao Hao had invited his buddy, Ding Yuncong. Ding Yuncong would definitely bring along his star actor friend, Zhang Hongyu. The latter was an actor with a decent reputation. His acting skills were not bad, and he had acted in several movies. His career was experiencing another rise at that moment, thanks to Ding Yuncong, of course.
Zhao Hao’s second-rated actress girlfriend, Tan Jing had already arrived at the restaurant, welcoming Zhao Hao and his friends.
Ding Yuncong arrived early. Besides Zhang Hongyu, he had brought along a few internet celebrities as well, one of them being his girlfriend. As for her name, let’s just call her internet celebrity A, since Ding Yuncong would swap girls after a while. It was great to be the son of the wealthiest man in China.
Since Ding Yuncong had arrived early, he had nothing to do and was surfing Weibo. He found that many netizens had tagged him, asking how it felt to be slapped in the face.
What is this about being slapped in the face?
What a joke, who could possibly slap his face? The richest man in China ruled part of the world. China was an East Asia overlord, one of the greatest power to be reckoned with.
