This was the first time for Yu Hao to encounter someone who ordered this many dishes, so he quickly said, "Don't order so much, it'll be a waste."

"We can finish it." Zhou Sheng said, "Do you have some sort of misunderstanding about how much I can eat?"

Everyone laughed again. Yu Hao said, "Okay then, if we can't finish the food we can pack it away and bring it back. It'll be enough to eat for several days."

"We can't bring any back, if my Mum knows that we came here, she'll turn into a madwoman." Zhou Sheng said to the foreman, "Bring two strips of Agarwood over."

The foreman brought over two strips of cigarettes that Yu Hao had never seen before, then Zhou Sheng said to Yu Hao, "Put them all in your bag, my Mum won't rummage through yours. When we get back to college, we can give them to the others."

The dishes they ordered filled their huge table. Zhou Sheng poured a cup of tea for Yu Hao and asked, "What did you want to talk to me about?"

All the waiters sensibly stepped out, so only Zhou Sheng and Yu Hao remained in the palatial room. The impact of this scene was truly too strong, so Yu Hao was trapped in a daze for awhile. However, when Zhou Sheng was the one putting on such a show of extravagance, it was nothing like going to Chen Yekai's house, since no sense of inferiority emerged in Yu Hao's heart.

Perhaps it was because of this guy's sloppy appearance as he sat in front of him. It stood in stark contrast to this opulent scene, and the difference was so striking that it seemed a bit absurd, as if the drawing style of this scene had changed within an instant.

A few days ago, he was still living in a down-to-earth documentary about an impoverished student that was playing on CCTV-8, but within the blink of an eye, he suddenly transmigrated into an idol drama where the characters were indulging in a life of luxury.

"Nothing much." Yu Hao said in the end.

Zhou Sheng lowered his voice and said, "I'll tell you a secret, Yu Hao."

Yu Hao, "......"

Yu Hao didn't know what to expect so he leaned in closer apprehensively. Yet Zhou Sheng said mysteriously, "Actually, everything here today is totally fake! I was deceiving you!"

"My Dad isn't the boss of Yun Lai Chun! I paid over 20,000 yuan today to get everyone here to act this all out with me! When we return, you'll need to pay my credit card bills! Let's both go wash the dishes ba!"

Yu Hao immediately spat out a mouthful of soup. Zhou Sheng burst into laughter and motioned for him to continue eating and indicated that he wouldn't tease him anymore. Halfway through their meal, someone knocked on the door and came in. Zhou Sheng impatiently chased that person away - the one who had come in was a man who looked to be about thirty years old. After he retreated to the door, he said respectfully towards them, "Director Zhou is out of town today."

"I especially chose this time to come because he's away." Zhou Sheng said, "Is it strange?" Then he said to Yu Hao, "My Dad's chauffeur."

"Director Zhou said," That man continued, "If you need to use the car later, please let me know. He asked me to accompany both of you to the department store and buy something good for the New Year."

Zhou Sheng said, "We won't go, I have legs. Close the door, it's so damn noisy outside."

The chauffeur closed the door with very precise and clean movements, Yu Hao said, "Don't be like that. You're so polite to the staff here, so why are you so aggressive towards your father's chauffeur?"
