Jia stared at the tall skyscraper as far as her sight could take her but even then she couldn’t see an end to it. She felt a hand squeeze the back of her neck and her eyes narrowed.
"I will break your fingers if you try to be more touchy."
Mingshen pouted. "As a responsible doctor, it’s my duty to not let you break your neck. You just never appreciate my thoughtfulness."
"Thoughtfulness or pervertedness?"
"Don’t worry, Spicy. I have booked a special room just for the two of us where I will show you every inch of my shaless side~" he winked.
Jia pressed her lips, her mind unable to make sense of why Mingshen brought her into a VIP club. It was nad The Zenith Lounge and it only did one thing - scream of filthy wealthiness. Even the sky wasn’t the limit.
"You thought about spending the day here?"
He sparkled. "Am I not so amazing?"
"Knowing full well that I might not even be able to afford a glass of water here?"
He waved his hand as if that wasn’t even a thing to worry about.
"And you forced to take a day off for sothing where the loose change in my wallet only serves the purpose to humiliate ?"
His eyes widened. "Didn’t I already tell you we will be coming here? Why would you still bring your poor wallet then?"
"..."
"Dr. Yang Mingshen, Miss. Song Jia.
Welco!!!"
Jia almost jolted with the zealous voice of their welcoming party. Suddenly out of thin air, ten people stood straight on either side of the entrance after they spread the red carpet before them.
"Dr. Yang Mingshen, it’s such a pleasure to have you here today!"
A fairly middle-aged man stepped up with the brightest grin on his lips. Jia could see imaginary stars sparkle in his eyes.
"It’s been such a long ti since you ca here. The Zeniths will be happy to serve you and Miss. Song! You are free to visit any place in the building~"
"Hmm..."
Apparently, his lucrative welco didn’t hold Mingshen’s interest that much. "The inside is fine and all but the welco here seems a bit lackluster."
Jia didn’t understand his filthy wealthy language and she refrained from understanding that language either. She was more worried about her dress code not matching the club’s aura.
The manager gasped in horror. "I offer you my sincerest apologies, Dr. Yang! Where did I fall lacking? I will rectify it imdiately!"
Mingshen frowned. "There are only twenty people in total to welco Spicy. This is quite a ager welcoming I must say."
Jia choked out hard.
This is what he wanted to comnt about?
She stared at the luxurious red carpet and the prim and proper servers ready to welco them with their utmost sincerity.
You think this is not enough?
"Plus I don’t see a flowery welco. When Spicy will walk along the red carpet, where are the flowers, money and sparkles that will shower upon her! Where is the boss music that will play in the background?"
"..."
The manager felt too ashad. "I...I am so sorry Dr. Yang! Indeed, I failed my part. But worry not, nothing is impossible for to do!"
With that, he snapped his finger and the twenty servers rushed inside the lounge. In a matter of five minutes, twenty more servers spawned as if this was so video ga. One set of servers got the music ready, one group of them carried flower petals, one group carried sparkles and the last group held a bunch of money notes.
Real money notes.
Jia remained frozen like a statue. Mingshen nodded, extrely pleased with the outco. "This is what I was talking about."
He looked at Jia and smiled. "Co on Spicy. It’s ti for you to do your sexy catwalk."
Jia stared at the forty pairs of eyes watching her and all ready to execute their grand welco for God knew which reason. Her foot trembled as she took the first step on the luxurious carpet and without a mont’s delay, rock music reverberated in the air with heavy and tallic rings of guitar tune. It felt as if a Boss was making her way through peasants.
"..."
W-what is going on?
For the first half of the walk, the servers rained delicate flower petals on her.
In the middle part of her red carpet walk, she was showered with sparkles and colorful confetti.
The third and the last part of the walk was pure madness as hundreds and thousands of money notes touched her from her head to toe.
Jia entered the lounge with a blank slate of mind from start to finish. The heavy tal boss music in the background continued with its zeal.
What just happened?
Mingshen followed her a minute later, thoroughly basking in the attention, flowers, confetti and money.
"This is what I call a proper welco~"
The manager grinned. "I am glad that you are satisfied, Dr. Yang, Miss. Song. As a premium mber of our club, you naturally don’t have to pay any entrance fees to any private sections and everything is open for you. Our server will guide you to the elevator area. Please enjoy your day and please don’t hesitate to call for even the slightest discomfort!"
Jia blankly followed Mingshen and the server who bowed and left once he showed them the way. The dazzling of the inner lounge area was refusing to reach her brain wires that was still too consud about what the hell just happened at the entrance.
She looked at Mingshen and asked, "Just what the hell happened out there?"
He blinked innocently. "They welcod you?"
"...By calling out 40 servers, raining money on and playing boss music?"
He brightened brighter than gold. "Boss music suits Spicy the best~"
"I was emphasizing on the raining money part."
"Did you like that part the most? You did, right? Right? Right? I knew it! Should I ask for money-rain at every private room we visit?" Mingshen gave it a genuine thought.
Jia took a deep but silent breath and finally found her voice to scream. "WHAT WAS THAT!!??"
Mingshen’s eyes widened in shock.
"Didn’t I just say it was your grand wel-"
"Who the hell does this kind of a welco!?" she exclaid, her mind struggling to make any sense.
He blinked as if the answer was so obvious and pointed at himself.
"."
"..."
"I ant to...ask..." she breathed in deeply, trying her best to maintain her composure and have a logical conversation with him. "Why would you go this far to arrange it this way? It was way too grand and unnecessarily lavish."
Mingshen knitted his brows. "You say strange things at tis, Spicy. It was grand and lavish precisely because I am ridiculously rich. They will do anything I will ask for or demand."
"..."
He smiled. "Rember how you couldn’t see the end of this skyscraper? There is no end to money flowing in here either. And the welco was just a asly beginning. So pop your eyes back in your sockets. You haven’t even seen the l of luxury here. Filthy luxury. That is what you will bask in today~"
"..."
