Chapter 579: Chapter 579

"A Kende Duck Family Bucket costs five hundred yuan?"

Xu Hao was also a bit surprised; he glanced at it and saw that it indeed was priced at five hundred yuan per bucket!

But usually, a family bucket would at most cost a hundred and some yuan, so why was it so expensive here?

Although he was wealthy, he wasn't a pushover! Sample from My Virtual Library Empire—read more on M&VLEMPY&R.

The waitress looked them over and, despite being amazed by Anna's beauty, showed some disdain when she saw Xu Hao's ordinary attire. Thinking he was pretending to be wealthier than he was, trying to impress a girl without spending money, did he really expect he could succeed?

Her voice somewhat cold, she said, "Sir, our prices have always been . If you can't afford it, you could choose not to dine here but instead, drag this lovely lady through the crowded stream of people, sweating profusely, and then go to the outside Kende Duck Shop to buy a cheaper family bucket. However, beautiful Miss, would you want to go through such trouble? Sweating in this crowded space could take away your body's fragrance and affect your beauty!"

She purposely made going out to buy the family bucket sound extremely troublesome, trying to force Xu Hao to buy it here.

Seeing that Anna remained silent, the waitress thought her words had moved her and continued, "Beautiful lady, you should know, you're at the most precious time of your life now, young and pretty with many admirers. Why wouldn't you choose a better pursuer?

This boy doesn't look wealthy or powerful, and has nothing to offer. Following him would only bring hardship. In a few years, when you're no longer as pretty and he has gradually become wealthy, he'll surely leave you for someone more beautiful!

So, women need to find a man willing to spend money on them during their prime. If a man is unwilling to spend money on you, no matter how much he claims to love you, don't believe him—that's all lies! They can only deceive young girls like you, but for someone experienced like me, they stand no chance."

She pointed to a nearby table where a pot-bellied man sat, wearing a thick gold chain and a shiny Rolex on his wrist, and said, "Miss, look how wealthy this gentleman is. He's the kind of partner you need now. Regardless of how beautiful a woman is, maintenance is essential!

If you don't take good care of yourself, no matter how naturally beautiful you are, you'll start looking worse with age, and maintaining beauty requires money! Can the young man in front of you provide enough money for your upkeep? I doubt he's even willing to buy you this mere few hundred yuan Kende Duck Family Bucket, let alone thousands on cosmetics!"

The man, hearing the waitress praise his wealth, promptly puffed out his chest and made his thick gold necklace more visible while his Rolex seemed to sparkle even more.

When Anna entered, many had noticed, including him, since girls like Anna who go out barefaced are incredibly rare nowadays.

As for whether a girl is made up or not, these people could tell at a glance, having encountered many women.

Thus, at this moment, the man felt he might have a chance, especially since the girl's boyfriend or suitor seemed poor, and here was his opportunity to charm this pure and lovely lady.

The man cleared his throat and spoke up, "Miss, seeing how beautiful you are, it really is a shame for you to be with this guy. Why don't you come with me instead? I'll treat you to the finest foods, and whatever bag you want—we can buy, from any LV style you choose."

The waitress inwardly exclaimed that he had taken the bait perfectly; all her talk was aimed at setting up this wealthy man. If she managed to connect them successfully, wouldn't the rich man be grateful to her?

No need to mention much, rewarding her with thousands or even tens of thousands would be possible, right?

Anna finally understood their intent, and curling her lip in disdain, she said, "Who told you my boyfriend is penniless? We just think your price is too expensive, almost ten times more than outside, and although we are rich, we're not fools to allow such exploitation of customers!"

The waitress smirked, "Rich? Would a rich person hesitate over a meal costing just a few hundred yuan? Wouldn't a rich person buy the best food for you?"

The man also said, "Miss, perhaps you're confused about what being rich means. Having a dime is being rich, and having a billion is also being rich, but are these two concepts of wealth the same?"

Anna flipped her hair dismissively, "So how much wealth do you have?"

The man proudly declared, "Me? Not much, just a few billion, I own the Wanxin Film and Television at North Third Ring."
