Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 317: Bankrupt Over a Cup of Coffee



"Sir, your coffee and water!" The waitress placed the tray on the table in front of the sofa and continued, "Sir, here is your gold card, please take it!"

Xiao Tianyu took the gold card, and the waitress smiled, "Please enjoy!"

The waitress turned to leave, but Shangguan Biyue suddenly spoke up, "Wait a minute, miss..."

"Miss, is there anything else you need?"

At that moment, Xiao Tianyu had already taken a sip of the pure water.

Shangguan Biyue continued, "All these rubies inlaid on the walls, are they real?"

Splutter~

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tianyu spat out the water he had just sipped. This... this woman really asked, uh, dear waitress, don't get the wrong idea, I don't know this woman.

Hearing this, the waitress smiled and said, "Miss, you're quite the joker, all the gems here are authentic, and each ruby is invaluable and world-class, especially that chandelier in the reception room, which is rumored to be the Luminous Pearl!"

With that, the waitress continued, "Miss, is there anything else you need to ask? If not, please enjoy!"

"Wait a minute!" Shangguan Biyue said with a slight smile, "Excuse me, miss, what is his relationship with Xingyu Cafe?"

"Miss doesn't know?"

"If I knew, would I ask you?" Shangguan Biyue said.

"If Miss, who is this gentleman's girlfriend, doesn't know, how would I know?" the waitress said with a smile.

"..." Shangguan Biyue felt like she hit a wall with that comment, feeling speechless.

Indeed, as Xiao Tianyu's girlfriend, she didn't know what his relationship with Xingyu Cafe was, how could the waitress know?

The waitress continued to smile and asked, "Miss, any other questions?"

"No… nothing else!"

"Please enjoy!"

After the waitress left, Shangguan Biyue gave Xiao Tianyu a long look. Who exactly is this guy, to make the higher-ups of a Tianyu International cafe treat him with such reverence, and even bring them to the legendary exclusive room?

The more Shangguan Biyue looked, the less she understood this man, with whom she'd slept a few times. He gave off such a mysterious aura that if his identity were revealed, it would undoubtedly cause a great global uproar.

However, if the other party doesn't tell the truth, what could she do? Should she press him? Naturally, Shangguan Biyue wouldn't; she believed that if Xiao Tianyu wanted to say something, he wouldn't need her to press him.

"The coffee's cold!" Xiao Tianyu said casually.

Hearing that, Shangguan Biyue finally picked up the coffee and said, "If only we could stay here all year round, wouldn't that be great!"

"As long as you want to stay, you can!"

"Really?" Shangguan Biyue was delighted.

However, the next second, Xiao Tianyu said casually, "Well, since I'm not paying!"

"What, you haven't paid?" Shangguan Biyue exclaimed in terror.

"Didn't you say you were treating?"

"Then what was that card swipe with the waitress for!"

"That was just to open an exclusive room, you don't necessarily have to pay upfront, do you?"

Did this scoundrel fool her? Shangguan Biyue wanted to throw the coffee at Xiao Tianyu's face, but then she thought, this coffee was from Xingyu, so she held back.

"Fine, it's really not that much money, I'll just take the loss!" Shangguan Biyue snorted coldly.

"It's not much, just a hundred million a day. But for a year, haha~ I guess Biyue International might go bankrupt!" Finished with the water, Xiao Tianyu stood up and said to Shangguan Biyue, "Miss, you continue to enjoy, I'm leaving now!"

Crash~

Hearing this, Shangguan Biyue's coffee cup fell to the ground, shattering into pieces. A hundred million a day, is this place robbing people? How could there be such an expensive room in the world?

Unbeknownst to her, the exclusive room at Tianyu didn't even have a price. When Xiao Tianyu said a hundred million a day, he was actually understating it. This isn't a place where just being wealthy gets you in.

The Immortal Qi here is extremely rich, a regular person can live a day here and extend their life by ten years. Or, this exclusive room shouldn't even exist on Earth, which only Xiao Tianyu knows.

"You're done for!" At that moment, Xiao Tianyu suddenly said, picking up a piece of the broken coffee cup, leaving Shangguan Biyue speechless, "It's just a cup, what's the big deal?"

An ordinary cup should not be worth much, who are they trying to scare?

"Don't you think this cup is special?"

"Isn't it just crystal clear, like a diamond?" Shangguan Biyue shouted, then froze, "Xiao Tianyu, don't tell me this... is actually made of diamond?"

"And it's the internationally extinct Star of the Emperor diamond!"

"How much is it per carat?"

"It should be over ten million per carat. As the president of Biyue International, this shouldn't be a concern, right?" Xiao Tianyu said seriously.

"What, over ten million per carat?"

Gulp~

Shangguan Biyue was terrified. One cup of coffee could bankrupt her? How is this even a possibility?

At this moment, Shangguan Biyue felt the world spinning. Over ten million per carat, then how heavy is this cup, at least half a pound? She couldn't even calculate the value of this cup.

Actually, Xiao Tianyu wasn't scaring her. The items in the exclusive room are never simple. Even when he said over ten million per carat, he was downplaying it. Remember, Xingyu Cafe's name implies the whole universe, with this just being a speck within it.

Shangguan Biyue realized why the exclusive room wasn't open to the public because no one in the world, including herself, could afford it. Thus, the exclusive room only served the CEO of Tianyu and top leaders of Huaxia.

"I'm leaving, enjoy yourself!" Xiao Tianyu said.

"Tianyu, stop right there, I don't have that much cash on me, do you?"

Shangguan Biyue knew very well the consequences of dining without paying at Tianyu International. If what Xiao Tianyu said was true, today's bill would cost several billion.

"I only earn a hundred thousand a year, do you think I have that kind of money?" Xiao Tianyu glanced at Shangguan Biyue, making her slump down on the sofa.

Today, she realized there are places she couldn't afford in Celestial Capital.

"What should I do then?" Shangguan Biyue asked.

"Just let it be!"

"You..." Shangguan Biyue was so infuriated by Xiao Tianyu that her chest heaved. What was she thinking when she insisted on coming to Xingyu Cafe? So she said, "Tianyu, don't go!"

"What else do you want? I really have no money!"

"Your relationship with Xingyu Cafe is so good, you just presented a card, and they brought us here. Can't you say something on my behalf and see if we can get a discount?" Shangguan Biyue conceded.

She swore it was the first time in her life she begged for a discount.

"Over a billion, miss, make sure you won't end up with broken bones," Xiao Tianyu gestured with his hands, looking serious.
