Chapter 281 : A Rose Wedding 7 (1/2)

As Shi Sheng had expected, this fellow picked what was probably the most high-class restaurant in town. Even a single bowl of rice there cost more than a thousand.

“Is your rice made of diamonds?” When Shi Sheng saw the prices on the menu, her face twitched.

Even she, the wastrel who once squandered money like water, had never eaten such expensive rice.

The waiter merely smiled before turning his gaze back to Xi Yin. Shi Sheng felt like she had earned the waiter’s disdain.

“The usual.” Xi Yin didn’t even look at the menu.

“Very well. Please wait a moment, Mr Xi Yin.” The waiter took out a pen and wrote something down before looking at Shi Sheng. “And what about you, Miss? Will you be having the same as Mr Xi Yin?”

“I’m not eating.” Shi Sheng tossed the menu down. ‘Would I still be alive after eating?’

The waiter smiled warmly and respectfully withdrew.

“You’re a regular here?” Shi Sheng looked at Xi Yin. ‘That waiter clearly knew this guy… And he was really respectful… Are you telling me this guy’s an overbearing CEO in the human world?’

Xi Yin raised his head to look at her, but didn’t reply.

After the waiter served all the dishes, he also served up a bright red drink. Shi Sheng sniffed it. The rich scent of roses greeted her.

Xi Yin’s movements when he was eating were graceful, but not slow. He soon finished off all the food but hadn’t touched the drink at all.

Shi Sheng was so hungry she felt like scratching the table. ‘Will he really not get indigestion after eating so much?’

Xi Yin wiped his lips and handed a card to her. “Go pay the bill.”

“And here I was, thinking that all you had to do was to show your face.” Shi Sheng raised her brow, finding this rather peculiar.

‘Villain-sama actually needs to pay? How illogical!’

Xi Yin coolly glanced at her, whereupon Shi Sheng innocently shrugged and got up to pay the bill.

She took a couple of steps before stopping. “The passcode?”

“No need.”

‘It doesn’t need a passcode?’

The hand which Shi Sheng was using to hold the card traced its surface. She hadn’t paid much attention before, but now she discovered it was somewhat different to the ones normally issued by banks.

And the logo on the card appeared to match this restaurant’s…

However, when she saw the number of zeros on the bill, she felt very unwell.

‘It seems like my estimate of 10k+ was an underestimation… Just those few things are worth more than a million!’

The waiter displayed no hints of scorn towards Shi Sheng’s confusion as he respectfully presented her with the bill. “Miss, please sign here. Using Mr Xi Yin’s name would do.”

“You guys are into daylight robbery!” Shi Sheng took the pen and signed Xi Yin’s name.

“You must be joking, Miss.” The waiter took the signed bill and handed her a copy.

‘Who said I was joking?! I’m(bbb) very poor right now, okay? I can’t afford to just throw money around! I don’t understand you rich people…’

Shi Sheng took the bill and returned to Xi Yin. The drink that had been on the table was gone.

Xi Yin didn’t even look at the bill as he kept the card and walked out of the restaurant. Only when they had walked out did it occur to Shi Sheng…

‘Why did I have to go help him pay the bill ah? Did I go retarded or something?’

Shi Sheng looked up at the brilliantly lit signboard.

‘This wastrel… How am I supposed to provide for him?’

By the time the two returned to the mansion, it was almost the wee hours of the morning.

Shi Sheng went straight back to her room but was unable to fall asleep. She was too hungry. She wanted to drink blood to the point she was about to lose control of herself.
