First Day In Game, I Got Ten Billion From Infinite Number Of Check-ins - Chapter 157

157 Is One Billion a Lot? (2)

When he heard that there was only this amount of money, Li Jiayi took out red notes from his wallet. After counting them, he said, “Here’s 4,000 yuan. The remaining 200 yuan is for your expenses.” However, just as Li Jiayi was about to pay, the cashier added, “General Manager Li, someone has already paid your bill just now.”

What? Had his bill been paid for?

Hearing this, everyone was stunned. They looked at each other, not knowing who paid for this.

Li Jiayi frowned and thought to himself, “I didn’t pay. Could it be that Chen Yun gave the money? That’s impossible. He’s a poor student. From the looks of it, this 3,000 yuan is enough for his living expenses for three months. How could he have paid for it? No one else has left the private room.”

!!
Li Jiayi put away the wallet he had just taken out and looked at the cashier. “Do you know who paid?”

The cashier said, “General Manager Li, it’s Manager Yang.”

Manager Yang?

Li Jiayi thought about it and suddenly came to a realization. Manager Yang was Boss Qian’s driver, Yang Hang. In order to flatter Yang Hang, he asked the staff to call him Manager Yang, which made Yang Hang very pleased.

However, Li Jiayi couldn’t understand. Yang Hang was someone he needed to seek favor with. Why did he suddenly react? What kind of benevolence did Yang Hang show? He actually helped him pay the bill!

Li Jiayi didn’t think too much about it and asked the cashier, “Where’s Manager Yang? Where is he?”

“Manager Yang went upstairs just now. He seems to be accompanying a guest.”

When he heard that Yang Hang had left, Li Jiayi could not help but be a little disappointed because he had lost another chance to show off.

Of course, this did not stop him from bragging in front of everyone.

As Li Jiayi had expected, Mother Yu asked, “Xiao Li, who is Manager Yang?”

Li Jiayi smiled and pretended to be calm. “Manager Yang is Boss Qian’s driver. His real name is Yang Hang. Although he’s only a driver, because of his special identity, President Qian’s subordinates call him Manager Yang.”

When she heard that Manager Yang was Boss Qian’s driver, Mother Yu said in surprise, “Xiao Li, it seems that you have a good relationship with him. He helped you pay the bill and left without saying goodbye. He’s really giving you enough respect.”

“Auntie, you flatter me. We’re all here to do business. We’re all helping each other,” said Li Jiayi proudly.

Looking at Li Jiayi’s smug expression, Zhang Huaiyao was unhappy. “Dad, it’s getting late. We should leave.”

Seeing that it was about time, Li Jiayi couldn’t say anything and could only get up.

However, in the next moment, a woman in a professional suit hurriedly walked in. Her head was covered in sweat. Seeing that everyone was about to leave, she hurriedly said, “Dear guests, our boss asked us to send two bottles of wine over, but the key to the wine cellar was broken. It’s our fault for only bringing it over now.”

The manager spoke apologetically as she broke out in cold sweat.

“This hotel is not bad. They actually gave us wine.”

Mother Yu smiled. She picked up the red wine on the table and looked at it. The smile on her face immediately stiffened as she exclaimed, “This… This wine is too good. It’s dried red wine from the special garden of the Romanée-Conti Winery!”

At the same time, Yu Qingfeng, who had picked up the other bottle of wine, also said in surprise, “Your bottle of red wine is nothing. The bottle of baijiu [1. a strong distilled spirit unavoidable at Chinese social functions] in my hand is actually a bottle of 1949 Maotai. There are only 100,000 bottles of this in the country. It’s worth at least hundreds of thousands. This hotel is really too generous.”

When they realized that the two bottles of wine were good wine, everyone present was shocked.

The dishes on this table only cost more than 3,000 yuan, but the two bottles of wine given by the hotel were worth hundreds of thousands. What was going on? Everyone could not wrap their heads around it.

Uncle Zhang carefully sized up the baijiu in his hand and muttered, “This wine… can’t be fake, right?”

Mother Yu rolled her eyes at him and sneered. “How can such a big hotel give fake wine? Isn’t this ruining their own reputation?”

Beside him, Yu Qingfeng also said in disbelief, “We only ate more than 3,000 yuan worth of dishes, but they gave away hundreds of thousands of yuan worth of wine. What do you think is going on?”

Mother Yu thought for a moment and her gaze landed on Li Jiayi. Her eyes immediately lit up and she said, “I understand. The reason why we have such special treatment is definitely because of Xiao Li.”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and thought that this should be the case. Otherwise, why would the hotel give these two bottles of wine worth hundreds of thousands of yuan?

Actually, Li Jiayi was very nervous. He knew best how capable he was.

It was already surprising enough that the driver, Yang Hang, helped him pay the bill at the swimming club. Now, he actually gave him hundreds of thousands of yuan worth of wine for dinner. He believed that he definitely did not receive this much respect from Yang Hang.

However, since everyone thought so, he could only brace himself and pretend to be calm. “I think Manager Yang must have gotten someone to send it over. Uncle and Auntie, let’s not leave in a hurry. Why don’t we try this wine? I can only repay Manager Yang’s kindness later.”

Yu Qingfeng said, “Yes, yes, yes. He values you so much. You can’t neglect him.”

Li Jiayi smiled and opened both bottles of wine. The women drank the red wine while the men drank the baijiu. Uncle Zhang got someone to add a few more dishes for everyone to continue tasting the wine.

After taking a mouthful of baijiu, Yu Qingfeng narrowed his eyes and pondered for a long time. He couldn’t help but praise, “As expected of baijiu that costs hundreds of thousands. The taste is indeed different. However, I drank thousands of yuan in an instant. This is simply faster than eating gold.”

“It’s indeed a little wasteful. Usually, we wouldn’t drink this kind of wine. This time, it’s all thanks to Li Jiayi.” Mother Yu smiled and became more and more satisfied with Li Jiayi.

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang also nodded with a sigh. This wine was much better than the wine they usually drank. Although they did not know how to taste it, they could still taste the most basic taste.

Upon receiving praise, Li Jiayi was overjoyed. He immediately sought favor with them and said, “It’s fine. As long as the two uncles like this wine, I can often give it to you to drink in the future.”

At this moment, the door of the private room was knocked on. A middle-aged man in casual clothes walked in with a warm smile on his face.
