449: The Young Master of the You Family

Xiao Xiao, however, crossed her arms, curious to see who had such a grand air about them. At this moment, the hotel manager who had been attending to the two of them hurried over to greet the newcomer.

Bai Yiming frowned and said, “Who is that, putting on such a show?”

Surrounded by a crowd, a slick-haired young man with a powdered face walked over. He looked to be only in his twenties, but he wore a custom-tailored suit, a silver necklace around his neck, and an arrogant expression on his face.

The manager quickly said, “Young Master You's presence graces our establishment. What can we do for you? Just give the order.”

The You Family’s eldest Young Master glanced at Bai Yiming and Xiao Xiao, and especially when he saw Xiao Xiao, a sparkle appeared in his eyes. He slowly walked over, completely ignoring Bai Yiming’s presence.

“Beautiful lady, what should I call you?” The Young Master’s tone was extremely frivolous, fully displaying the demeanor of a dissolute playboy.

Before Xiao Xiao could answer, Bai Yiming stepped forward.

“She is my friend. Please show some respect,” Bai Yiming said coldly, a warning in his eyes.

The You Family’s eldest Young Master’s eyes turned cold, and anger instantly flared in his heart. Since he was a child, no one had ever dared to speak to him like that.

“What are you? How dare you meddle in this Young Master’s business?”

You Tianjiao said with a cold tone, while sizing up Bai Yiming. He had moved down from Space City to live when he was ten years old, and nearly half of the businesses, big and small, in Donghai City were assets of his You Family.

Seeing the arrogant demeanor of this brat, Bai Yiming rolled up his sleeves, wanting to teach him a lesson, but he was stopped by Xiao Xiao.

“It’s fine, let me handle it!” Xiao Xiao said softly, her smile making one feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.

Bai Yiming glanced at Xiao Xiao, and seeing her raise an eyebrow, he could guess that Xiao Xiao might be fishing.

Xiao Xiao stepped forward and slowly began, “My name is Xiao Xiao. Please don’t mind, Young Master You; my friend here has a bit of a temper.”

Upon hearing this, the You Family’s eldest Young Master’s mouth curved into a wicked smile, his gaze wandering up and down Xiao Xiao’s body.

“It’s nothing, nothing. Our You's Group is currently recruiting a new city spokesperson. I’ve booked out the hotel. If the beautiful lady signs up for the spokesperson selection, even if she’s not chosen, she’ll receive a reward of 100,000 points.”

As the You Family’s eldest Young Master spoke, his eyes seemed to want to devour Xiao Xiao. Bai Yiming, on the side, became extremely jealous and pulled Xiao Xiao back.

“We’re not participating. We’re just here to stay at the hotel. Since there’s no room here, we’ll just go somewhere else.”

Bai Yiming’s tone was very restrained. This ‘spokesperson selection’ sounded quite disreputable just by hearing about it.

You Tianjiao turned his head and said to the manager, “Arrange a first-class suite for the beautiful Xiao Xiao. All extra expenses will be charged to my account. As for him?”

You Tianjiao glanced at Bai Yiming and continued, “Just give him any room.”

“Understood, Young Master You.” The manager nodded obsequiously and hurried off to make arrangements.

Xiao Xiao pressed her palm down slightly, stopping Bai Yiming, who was about to explode. This spokesperson selection had piqued Xiao Xiao’s interest. She wanted to see if this selection was legitimate or not.

You Tianjiao took out a distinguished black gold card from his Pregnant and said to Xiao Xiao, “Beautiful Xiao Xiao, if you’re interested in participating, just come to the Rose Restaurant on the top floor of the hotel tonight at 8 PM. This card has no limit; you can use it for any purchases in Donghai City. Consider it my treat.”

Xiao Xiao reached out and took the card, saying, “Alright, Young Master You is so generous, I’ll definitely be there tonight.”

You Tianjiao nodded in satisfaction. In Donghai City, there was truly no one You Tianjiao couldn’t win over. He turned his head, looked at Bai Yiming, and said, “Miss Xiao Xiao, your friend here doesn’t need to come. He wouldn’t be able to get in anyway.”

After speaking, he led a large group of people upstairs, his arrogant demeanor making Bai Yiming grit his teeth in anger.

“Xiao Xiao, you can’t go. That brat’s gaze towards you isn’t right, is it?”

Xiao Xiao smiled and said, “What can he do to me? As for you, why are you so agitated?”

Xiao Xiao said, looking at the black gold card in her hand, “Let’s go, it’s still early. We’ll go shopping and buy things.”

Bai Yiming watched Xiao Xiao’s relaxed demeanor, his expression changing repeatedly. Although he knew no one could harm Xiao Xiao, You Tianjiao’s gaze towards Xiao Xiao made him extremely uncomfortable.

“Oh, what are you standing around for? Let’s go!” Xiao Xiao finished speaking and pulled Bai Yiming out of the hotel.

Outside the hotel was the bustling Commercial Street. Consumer goods were extremely prosperous here, partly due to birth subsidies, which meant people on the ground had a bit of spare cash, and also because the management department strictly controlled prices, making money go a long way.

“Why didn’t you reveal your identity? This Young Master is definitely up to no good.”

Xiao Xiao looked at the black gold card in her hand, a sly glint flashing in her eyes: “Of course I know he’s no good. There are many beautiful women in the hotel. He’s just using the guise of selecting a spokesperson to choose consorts for himself.”

“That’s outrageous! I’ll go to the Bureau of Public Security and report him right now!”

Xiao Xiao grabbed Bai Yiming, saying, “What’s the rush? For something like this, you have to catch them in the act. The You Family’s fortune built by You Suowei will probably be squandered by this Young Master.”

Xiao Xiao pulled Bai Yiming directly into a massive commercial complex, where everything from food, clothing, and daily necessities was available. With the black gold card in hand, there was no need to be polite. Whenever she saw something she wanted to buy, Xiao Xiao swiped the card without hesitation. In no time, Bai Yiming was laden with large and small bags.

Fortunately, Bai Yiming was a Superpower User, so these items weren’t heavy for him; they were just a bit bulky and made it hard to walk.

However, Xiao Xiao was having a great time. The two shopped until 4:30 PM, when they finally finished. Xiao Xiao led Bai Yiming to the staircase of the mall. Seeing no one around, Xiao Xiao raised her hand and snapped her fingers. In an instant, all the items were teleported to her home.

All the shopping bags on Bai Yiming’s body disappeared, and he looked at Xiao Xiao in astonishment.

“Where are the things?”

“Sent them home. What, you want to carry them? Should I send them back?”

“No, no, no, they’re not heavy, but they block my vision, making it hard to walk.” Bai Yiming quickly refused.

Xiao Xiao said seriously, “Hmm, it’s getting late. Let’s find a place to eat, then head back to the hotel.”

Bai Yiming nodded slightly: “Okay, I saw a seafood restaurant on the fourth floor. How about we go eat seafood?”
