Can you be called a rich man if you don’t indulge yourself?

Chapter 111: Service can be considerate, but not outrageous! (7000 words)
Coming down from the room at a height of 230 meters, Gu Heng once again experienced the ear-covering service.
Although even if you don't cover your ears, you probably won't feel any discomfort.
But Gu Heng still acquiesced to Xu Ying's service and had no intention of stopping it.
Who would refuse a beautiful woman who stands on tiptoe with her warm little hands to gently cover your ears, and then looks at you lovingly?

And I spent money on it.
If I hadn't spent a lot of money, why would Xu Ying be so considerate?
So, this is a service that you pay for with your own money. Even if you don't need it at all, you still enjoy it without any psychological burden.
A Toyota Alphard was parked downstairs, not far from the hotel entrance.
Seeing this huge commercial vehicle, Gu Heng turned his gaze to a sign erected not far away.
[No vehicles allowed! ]

Six big characters are so dazzling
Following Gu Heng's gaze, Xu Ying knew what Gu Heng was thinking and explained with a smile, "This sign was built by the cultural and tourism department to prevent foreign tourists from parking their vehicles randomly and disrupting order."

After listening to her explanation, Gu Heng smiled and said nothing more.

If we really want to stop illegal parking, we should treat everyone equally and not allow any vehicle to pass.
Privileges established for a small number of people should just be called privileges.

I have to say it's to maintain order.
Wouldn't it be better to be as sincere as those capital service industries? Although they also enjoy privileges, they are not secretive and say clearly that as long as you have money, you are God.
She has to be a whore and a saint at the same time.
To be honest, although Gu Heng was somewhat disgusted by this kind of hypocrisy, he did not express it.
the reason is simple.
I am a vested interest now. Why do you want to make things difficult for me?
What’s the difference between this and “Why is Your Majesty rebelling?”
Gently pull the door handle and the electric sliding door will open automatically
Xu Ying turned to Gu Heng and invited him, "Mr. Gu, please get in the car."

Gu Heng glanced at the configuration inside the car, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how many enjoyments are there that rich people can't even think of?
A seven-seater commercial vehicle was transformed into a four-seater.
The interior configuration inside is not even comparable to my own Bentley Flying Spur.
Xu Ying saw Gu Heng had already stepped into the back seat and quickly introduced him.

"The entire rear half of this Toyota Alphard has had its extra seats removed and replaced with double-seat massage chairs. The interior decoration was re-installed by Toyota's designers at a high price. There is no substitute for comfort."

Then he pointed to a button next to the armrest and said, "The vehicle is fully soundproofed. Not only is it difficult for the noise outside to reach the inside of the car, but even the sound from the driver's seat is not allowed.

So if Mr. Gu has any needs in the car, he can press this button, and I can get your needs in the first place in the passenger seat."

Gu Heng, who was already sitting in his chair, looked around while listening to Xu Ying's explanation.
to be honest.
In terms of style, the Toyota Alpha is definitely not as good as my Bentley Flying Spur.

But this short one or two minute experience was enough for Gu Heng to make a comparison.
And the sound insulation function that Xu Ying just mentioned
At first glance, although it doesn't sound very useful
But if you think about it carefully, the effect is quite significant.
If he were to travel with a girl in a car like this, Gu Heng couldn't imagine how quickly his free time would pass.
It may not be considered a thousand miles a day.

A hundred miles a day is definitely a good idea.
"Mr. Gu, if you are ready, shall we set off?
Do you need me to turn on the LCD screen and play a movie for you to pass the time?"

Gu Heng shook his head.

"It's only ten minutes. It's not necessary."

"Okay then. There is an electric locker next to you. There is a sterilized eye mask inside. If you feel tired, you can put it on and rest for a while. Don't worry, there will be no vibrations in the vehicle to disturb you."

After saying that, seeing Gu Heng nod, he pulled the door handle again, and the electric door closed gently.
Xu Ying herself sat in the co-pilot seat.
As the car slowly moved forward, the scenery outside the window began to change.
Xu Ying is not exaggerating at all
Sitting in the car, Gu Heng didn't feel any sign that the vehicle was moving. Even riding a high-speed train was not as stable as this.
Although he doesn't know much about cars, Gu Heng knows that this Toyota Alphard has definitely been greatly modified.
The cost is likely to be higher than that of my Bentley Flying Spur.
When he thought of this, Gu Heng also had a plan.
This time in Shanghai, I not only want to buy a supercar, but also a comfortable car like this one.
By the way, find a personal secretary and get it done in one step! Completely transform yourself from an ordinary person into what a rich person should be like!

After driving for about ten minutes, Gu Heng, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed, was awakened by the ringing of his cell phone.
The small ringing sound of the mobile phone seemed so harsh in this quiet carriage.
After glancing at the caller ID, Gu Heng directly chose to answer the call.

"elder brother!!!"

Gu Xinran's startled voice rang beside Gu Heng's ears.
He couldn't help but put the phone away from his ear.
"What's going on?"

"Have you come to Shanghai?"

Gu Heng did not deny it.

"You're going too far! Am I still your biological sister? I only found out about my brother's visit to Shanghai through someone else!"

Gu Heng: "Don't make a mistake, it's a cousin's, not a relative's."

"Then I don't care. If you don't have a biological sister, then my cousin is your biological sister!!"

"This shows that you, as a younger sister, have not done anything competent at all. You didn't even know that your brother had posted on WeChat Moments."

"Then I'm at work! Do you understand the saying that interns have no human rights? If I get caught checking my social media during work hours, there might be an extra cross on my subsequent internship report!"

Gu Heng was too lazy to mess with her. With Gu Xinran's personality, if you mess with her, she will play tricks on you for the whole afternoon.
Then he asked, "Who told you I was coming to Shanghai?"

Gu Xinran on the other end of the phone said without hesitation: "Director Lin, I was reading the industry report at my workstation, and she called me directly and said that you came to Shanghai, and asked me to bring you something in her office."

After that, as a burst of dense footsteps came from the phone, Gu Xinran ran to an empty corner and lowered his voice and said, "Brother, how about you tell me how far you and Director Lin have developed? Have you started giving each other gifts? Can I just call her sister-in-law now?"

Gu Heng listened to Gu Xinran's mysterious voice and began to wonder.
Before, Lin Ran said he had something to give me, but I didn't take it seriously.
When she left her hometown, her mother Xu Hong stuffed a trunk full of cured meat and local specialties for her.

According to her character
The so-called gift is to repay this favor.
But I didn't expect that not long after I finished the video call with her, she immediately called Gu Xinran and asked her to give her the gift.
This made Gu Heng start to become a little interested.
Then he asked Gu Xinran: "Did Lin Ran tell you what it is?"

"No, she just told me where the things were, and I went in and took them out. They were packed very tightly, so you couldn't see them at all.

How about I help you unpack it first?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Heng quickly stopped him and said, "No, just take it and bring it to me."

"Okay, then come pick me up."

Gu Xinran is just a little gossipy girl, she still has some sense of propriety
Gu Heng didn't let her open it, so she didn't mention it again.

"Now?"

Glancing at the time on her watch, it was just past three o'clock. Gu Heng asked in confusion, shouldn't she be at work during this time?

"Yes, right now. My team leader just told me that Director Lin has some business to assign to me, and then he gave Miaomiao and me an afternoon of free time! Hurry up, come pick me up!
I am almost fed up with this serious atmosphere in the company!! "

When talking to Gu Heng, Gu Xinran has no sense of boundaries
In her eyes, no matter how rich Gu Heng is, he is still her brother, and she will not feel embarrassed to bother Gu Heng.
"Okay, then go downstairs first, I'll pick you up."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Heng directly pressed the button that Xu Ying mentioned before.
Soon, the voice from the cockpit sounded through the speakers.

"What do you want, Mr. Gu?"

"Don't rush to Baolixuan, go to the World Financial Center."

"Ok."

Facing Gu Heng's instructions, Xu Ying didn't find it difficult to understand. After driving for more than ten minutes, they were less than a kilometer away from Baolixuan Restaurant. Now they suddenly returned to Lujiazui, which seemed to be a bit annoying.
But despite this, she could only choose to accept it unconditionally, without even asking for reasons, and directly asked the driver to turn around and drive towards the World Financial Center.
Another ten minutes
Toyota Alphard parked in the temporary parking lot of the World Financial Center
It was past three in the afternoon and there were not many pedestrians walking downstairs of the building. Gu Heng immediately spotted Gu Xinran and Tao Miaomiao standing aside waiting.

After the car came to a complete stop, Gu Heng pressed the door-opening button, and Xu Ying quickly stood at the door.

"Mr. Gu, is there anything I can help you with?"

Gu Henggang wanted to get off the car to call Gu Xinran and Tao Miaomiao
After all, the parking lot is some distance away from the building, and shouting in public is a bit inappropriate.

Now that Xu Ying had volunteered, Gu Heng didn't hesitate to follow her lead and said, "Did you see the two girls carrying the boxes over there? Just tell them that I asked them to come over."

Xu Ying thought Gu Heng wanted her to strike up a conversation for him. Although she was a little reluctant, she still gritted her teeth and responded, "Okay, but I'm not sure if I can invite you over."

Gu Heng glanced at her with a strange expression.

"Those two girls are my sisters, what are you unsure of?"

"what"

Realizing that she had made a mistake, Xu Ying decided to apologize.
But she thought about how to apologize for a long time and still didn't know how to say it.
Could it be that he misunderstood that Gu Heng was trying to flirt with girls?
Fortunately, Gu Heng didn't take it too seriously and waved his hand, saying, "Go ahead."

As if she had been pardoned, Xu Ying quickly quickened her pace and ran towards Gu Xinran and Tao Miaomiao.
After a brief conversation, Gu Xinran rushed over from a distance with an excited look on his face.
Before Gu Heng could say anything, Gu Xinran poked his head into the car, looked at the decoration inside and said in surprise: "Brother, did you change the car?"

"No, this is the courtesy car provided by the hotel where I live."

"Whoa whoa!"

"Stop talking nonsense and get in the car first."

Hearing Gu Heng's words, Gu Xinran poked his head in and took a look: "Only two seats? How do we sit?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Heng was stunned.
I really hadn't thought of this question myself.
The large rear seat has been changed to a double seat, which has improved the comfort, but its practicality seems to be average.
A large seven-seater commercial vehicle cannot accommodate three people.
“Or I won’t go up.”

Tao Miaomiao said timidly beside him
But before she could finish her words, Gu Xinran hit her silly head.

"Are you stupid? You don't even want to go out and play? Do you really want to go back to being a social animal? I've already told Qianqian that she and Leyi will come to pick us up later!"

Tao Miaomiao seems to be used to accepting everything
Instead of responding to Gu Xinran's complaints, he hugged her arm and apologized.
"Stop, stop, stop! You're saying sorry again, right? I'm punishing you by saying sorry only 10 times today! You've already said it 8 times before, this is the 9th time, you still have one more chance!"

Gu Heng looked at them like this and couldn't help but smiled and shook his head.
A girl with Tao Miaomiao's personality would be bullied to death if she were placed next to someone with a slightly bad mind.
That is, my cousin.
Besides being a bit carefree, he didn't have any bad intentions, so he had no intention of taking advantage of her.
Just as Gu Heng frowned and watched Gu Xinran criticize Tao Miaomiao while thinking about how to solve the problem, Xu Ying's voice sounded beside him.

"Mr. Gu, how about I ask the hotel to arrange another car to come over?"

"Trouble?"

Xu Ying said quickly: "It's not a problem. The hotel is very close to the World Financial Center. It only takes a few minutes.
However, the other car may not be as comfortable as this one, because the car you are riding now is specially customized, and there is only one in our entire group of hotels. "Gu Heng waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's okay, then you can arrange another one as quickly as possible."

After receiving Gu Heng's instructions, Xu Ying quickly stepped aside and made a phone call.
Gu Xinran looked up and down at Gu Heng with a flickering gaze.
Seeing her acting funny, Gu Heng slapped her on the head: "What are you looking at? Don't you recognize me?!"

After crying out in pain, Gu Xinran covered her head and said aggrievedly, "No!"

"I noticed that you have changed now, and have become a bit like my leader. Have you been influenced by Director Lin?"

Hearing Gu Xinran's words, Gu Heng just glanced at her indifferently without any explanation.

Lin Ran is right
I have indeed changed.

As for why Gu Xinran felt that he would be the same as his leader.
It was simply that Gu Heng had slowly become accustomed to bossing around the people who served him.
At the beginning, Gu Heng, whose mentality had not yet changed, was still afraid of bothering others, but now he is completely different. He enjoys the privileges brought to him by money. This is the first lesson the system has taught him. He has begun to understand some of the basics.
"By the way, give me the things Lin Ran gave me."

"Oh, I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. It's quite heavy."

As he spoke, he handed the box in his hand to Gu Heng.
"Can you open it and see what's inside?"

Seeing Gu Heng take the box, Gu Xinran, curious, leaned over.
Gu Heng did not shy away from it and opened the package in front of her. He was also quite curious.
After unpacking, I saw a transparent box of unknown material in front of me.
The box contains seven Ultraman Tiga dolls in different colors and poses.
The doll is very exquisite.
It is so exquisite that except for its small proportions, it is only a dozen centimeters tall and looks exactly like the Ultraman on TV.
Compared to the ones I collected when I was a kid and they cost a few dollars each, they are so much better.
"what the hell?"

"Brother, how boring are you and Director Lin?"

"This is the gift you gave each other? She gave you Ultraman, did you give her a Barbie doll?"

Until he saw clearly what was in the box, Gu Xinran's gossip fire was extinguished immediately, and he couldn't help but complain.
But Gu Heng didn't say anything in response to her complaints, he just raised a faint smile
I didn't expect that Lin Ran was quite capable.
At home, I briefly complained to her about my childhood regrets.
I didn't expect her to remember it.
I also gave myself a set of this thing.
To be honest, with my current wealth, anything that Lin Ran can give me can be easily obtained by me.
The reason why Gu Heng laughed was because it turned out that besides himself, there was really someone who cared about his broken childhood.
But after a moment of being touched, Gu Heng's raised mouth corners sank again.
damn it.
The emotional debt I owe to Lin Ran.
It seems like there is one more thing.
But having too much debt is not a burden. Since I have determined to be a scumbag, how can I be influenced by a woman?

At worst, I can just focus more on her in the future.
A few minutes later, an Audi A8 drove over from a distance and stopped steadily next to the Toyota Alpha.

Xu Ying's voice also rang out.

"Mr. Gu, the car is here."

Gu Heng nodded and said to Gu Xinran who was still standing beside him, "Are you two going to take this car or that one?"

Gu Xinran chuckled: "I'll take your car!"

As if he had already guessed Gu Xinran's choice, Gu Heng smiled and shook his head and got out of the car: "Go ahead and sit down."

"Hehe~Thank you brother!"

As he said this, he smiled and pulled the bewildered Tao Miaomiao into the car.
After telling Gu Xinran some of the details about the car that Xu Ying had told her before, she closed the door for them and walked towards the Audi A8 parked nearby.
Xu Ying quickly opened the car door for Gu Heng.

After getting in the car, the experience suddenly dropped several levels
Although the Audi A8 is also a luxury car.
But compared with the specially modified Alpha, the comfort level is totally different. It is not even as comfortable as my own Bentley Flying Spur.
"Okay, now let's go straight to the restaurant."

After receiving Gu Heng's instructions, Xu Ying immediately told the new driver the destination, then turned sideways and smiled at Gu Heng who was sitting in the back seat: "Mr. Gu, you really dote on your sister."

"well enough."

Hearing Xu Ying's words, Gu Heng just smiled faintly.
The old Gu family is not very prosperous. In his generation, there are only three people including his cousins. One is his eldest cousin who is already in his thirties and has moved to his uncle's house, and the other is Gu Xinran.

He really treated Gu Xinran, his cousin who was three years younger than him and had always been at his side since childhood, as his own sister.
I could barely support myself before, let alone provide her with any material conditions.
But now that I have the ability, I can't say that I can spoil her like a princess, but at least I can give her certain material conditions, so that when she chooses a boyfriend, she will not be misled by a rich scumbag like me. It is still necessary.
What is there to say?

Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world.

It would be difficult for Gu Heng, with his sophisticated and selfish mindset, to have the awareness of benefiting the world, but he was very happy to create a good environment for his family.

Ten minutes later.

The service staff who had already received the reservation information were already standing by and waiting. When a Toyota Alpha and an Audi A8 stopped around the rainbow fountain in front of the Bao Li Xuan restaurant, two special service staff immediately walked to the back seat and opened the door.

Looking at the restaurant which was already brightly lit at just four o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Heng pretended to be calm as he stepped out of the car.

Yes
Just pretend to be calm
He was greeted by several people standing at the door, handing him towels and bending over to show him the way. This was his first time experiencing this kind of onlooker service.
Although it's a bit embarrassing, it's something that needs to be said. It's like a chaebol dinner in a Korean drama.
It has to be in Shanghai.
This service is really good
Gu Heng held it, but Gu Xinran didn't need to.
He said with a fussy expression again: "Brother, where did you take me to?"

"I'll take you to dinner."

Hearing Gu Heng's words, Gu Xinran said with some disappointment: "Then why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Gu Heng: “???”

"What do you mean?"

"If you had told me in advance, I wouldn't have ordered takeout with Miaomiao at noon and would have saved my stomach to eat here."

Seeing that she was playing tricks on him again, Gu Heng couldn't help but roll his eyes: "If you don't want to eat, wait for me in the car, don't force me!"

Having said that, he walked into the restaurant under the guidance of the waiter.

Seeing that Gu Heng ignored her, Gu Xinran quickly retorted: "Who said I don't eat! At worst, I will die here, and I will be a beauty again in 18 years!"

As he said that, he pulled the confused Tao Miaomiao to follow behind Gu Heng.
It was not meal time and there was almost no one in the restaurant.

Under the guidance of the waiter, Gu Heng took Gu Xinran and Tao Miaomiao to the table in the private room.
Just as he was about to pick up the menu on the table to order, Xu Ying quickly picked up the menu and whispered, "You will be eating later. Try not to touch anything other than the tableware. I'll help you. Just tell me when you need to order a dish or turn the page."

Gu Heng: “???”

What we are saying is that service can be considerate, but being too considerate is a bit outrageous.
But when Gu Heng looked up, he saw that the two waiters serving the table were still smiling, with no change in their expressions.
It's like he's already used to this situation.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
Since what you want to do now is to enjoy life, you have to accept your discomfort.
Then he pointed at the [Braised Pigeon] on it and said, "Give me three servings of this."

Even though the waiter was standing nearby and had heard what Gu Heng said, Xu Ying still patiently repeated it to the waiter.
Then I ordered seven or eight more dishes.
These are some traditional Cantonese dishes.
After confirming that Gu Heng would not order any more, the waiter was just about to say goodbye and go make arrangements with Gu Heng when Xu Ying's voice rang out again.

"Let me ask, are all the dishes here made by the chef himself?"

"Yes, after receiving the reservation call, our chef has already started preparing in the kitchen."

"Ok."

After the waiter left, Xu Ying smiled and explained to Gu Heng: "It's like this, because our group has cooperation with most of the high-end restaurants in Shanghai, Baolixuan Restaurant is one of them.

All reservations made through our Oriental Pearl Group need to be made by the chef himself. I just want to ask.”

Gu Heng waved his hand, indicating that Xu Ying didn't need to explain.
Today, I have experienced a lot of services that are beyond my understanding.
This is nothing.
At this moment, Gu Xinran's cell phone, who had been whispering with Tao Miaomiao nearby, rang.

Gu Xinran took one look and immediately said to Tao Miaomiao, "It's Qianqian who called me via video!"

As he said that, he answered the phone.
Since the entire private room was independent and everyone inside was familiar to Gu Xinran except Xu Ying, she didn't hesitate and turned on the speaker directly, then excitedly said, "Qianqian!"

A voice that was a little hoarse but obviously young came from the phone.

"Where are you?"

Hearing this voice, Gu Heng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

It's not that he's that interested in the sound.
But this tone sounded even more powerful than Lin Ran's.
But this kind of strength is not like Lin Ran's strength as she is in a high position, but like a young lady who is rarely rejected.
Gu Xinran seemed to be used to this tone of voice and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, she responded honestly, "I don't know where this is. It's a restaurant. It seems to be called Baolixuan."

"Baolixuan?"

The tone of the person on the other end of the phone paused.

Then he continued, "Why did you go there?"

Just as Gu Xinran was about to answer, she heard the girl named Qianqian speak again: "Show me the surrounding environment."

This time, Gu Heng couldn't help but frown.

Her tone clearly showed that she knew the place called Baolixuan, and she was questioning Gu Xinran.
But Gu Xinran didn't say anything, and walked around the room obediently.
While walking around, Gu Heng caught a glimpse of the girl in the video.
Although it was only a flash, he was still sure that this was a beautiful woman.
After confirming, the girl named Qianqian spoke again: "Is Shuishui there too?"

Shuishui should be Tao Miaomiao's nickname.
"Yes, she came with me."

"Okay then, just wait for me there. Le Yi and I will be there soon."
