My Monopoly game came true?!

Chapter 19 Hotpot with a Cost of Yuan Per Person

"Brother Chen."

As soon as she brought Ke Chen to the VIP gym on the fourth floor, Ren Jieman couldn't help but praise him.

"You look even more handsome after changing your hairstyle!"

"Really? But I always feel that this hairstyle doesn't suit me."

Seeing Ke Chen being so humble, Ren Jieman shook her head, her beautiful eyes flashing with amazing brilliance.

"Your face is small, so this is perfect for you, just like the male lead in an idol drama!"

"Thank you."

Ke Chen smiled slightly, then he and Ren Jieman separated and went to the men's and women's locker rooms to change clothes.

After coming out, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"You told me before that I should change my exercise movements starting today?"

"Yes."

Ren Jieman explained as she warmed up Ke Chen.

"Because a weight of around 160 is just right for you, you don't need to deliberately lose weight in the remaining classes. I will help you lose weight while exercising other parts of your body."

"it is good."

[Today, we successfully checked in for two people at the Tigerlily Gym VIP Fitness Room! 】

「建设银行：您尾号5793的账户于07月29日15:28收入RMB20000元。」

Because he was still a novice in terms of fitness, Ke Chen completely followed Ren Jiman's advice.

I started by running, then used various fitness equipment to train my chest and abdominal muscles, and finally I trained my back.

"call--!"

The two-hour exercise was over quickly.

so tired!

Ke Chen lay slumped on the yoga mat, feeling the groans coming from all the muscles in his body, which made him feel inexplicably hot.

According to folk science, the dopamine and endorphins secreted by the body during exercise can make people addicted to fitness.

Now that I experience it, it makes sense.

But I'm fine. For those people who are obsessed with bodybuilding to the point of injecting drugs, it's completely a mental illness.

"Brother Chen, thank you for your hard work."

Ren Jieman half-knelt with her hands on her knees and handed the uncapped bottle of water to Ke Chen.

At this moment, her cell phone suddenly rang.

"Please wait a moment. I'm going to answer a call."

"Ok."

Ren Jieman opened her waist bag, picked up the phone and saw who was calling. Her expression froze and she immediately ran out and answered the call in a low voice from a distance.

"Mom, what's wrong? I'm at work."

"Manman, your father has had some problems recently, and I need you to transfer another ten thousand yuan."

"Didn't I just transfer 20,000 a while ago?"

Ren Jieman said anxiously.

"What's going on? Why do you need another ten thousand?"

"Your father sprained his ankle. It's called something like... ruptured left anterior talar ligament? He needs surgery."

"what?"

All the ligaments are broken?
After seeing the admission certificate sent by her mother, Ren Jieman felt extremely heavy in her heart. She pursed her thin lips and said softly after some hesitation.

"I only have 5,000 in my card. I'll transfer it to you later."

"Ah."

"My father is..."

Toot——

Before Ren Jieman could ask about her father's condition, her mother had already hung up the phone, which left her stunned for a long time.

"well--!"

With a light sigh, she put her phone back into her bag. After taking a few deep breaths to adjust her mood, Ren Jieman walked up to Ke Chen with a forced smile.

"Brother Chen, let's stop here for today's class. I'm going to take a shower. You can go back after you finish your shower. See you tomorrow."

"..."

Ke Chen looked at the forced smile on Ren Jieman's face. Even a person with the lowest EQ could tell that something was wrong with her.

Is there something you can't hide?
Seeing this, Ke Chen did not leave in a hurry after taking a shower, but played with his mobile phone while waiting for Ren Jieman to come out.

Maybe this is a good opportunity to improve your relationship!
This might help me complete the [Star Upgrade Quest] in my hand.

When she came out of the locker room, Ren Jieman was surprised to see that Ke Chen had not left yet.

"Brother Chen, you haven't left yet?"

"Let's go have dinner together."

Ke Chen waved his phone and chuckled.

"If you are in a bad mood, the best solution is to turn your anger into food."

"I'm not in a bad mood."

Ren Jieman murmured softly and wanted to defend herself, but the frustration in her heart made her urgently need to find someone to vent.

Maybe Brother Chen should be able to understand me...

"Thank you, Brother Chen."

Afterwards, the two left Tigerlily Gym and took a taxi straight to Qianxiang City.

After all, if you bring Ren Jieman with you, you can get 100% cash back on any purchases made here, so Ke Chen didn’t care much about the price and chose the most expensive hot pot restaurant on the top floor.

"Home Club"

Compared with the crowded hotpot restaurants, Jiahui seems much quieter.

Not only were there no customers waiting at the seats at the door, but there were only a few people dining in the entire restaurant.

Perhaps she sensed something was wrong, or perhaps she was shocked by the luxurious Hong Kong-style decoration inside Jiahui. Ren Jieman quickly went online to look up the average consumption per person in this store, and was shocked by the result, her beautiful eyes widened.

one thousand?
Hotpot costs one thousand per person?
This restaurant is actually more expensive than the legendary Western-style house hotpot?

"Two guests, please come in."

The waiter smiled and gestured for invitation, which made Ren Jieman hurriedly tug at the corner of Ke Chen's clothes, move closer and lean over to whisper in his ear.

"Brother Chen, let's go somewhere else, this place is too expensive!"

"Is it expensive?"

Seeing Ke Chen's puzzled expression, Ren Jieman then remembered his identity as a rich second-generation.

But even so, she was still a little embarrassed.

"But if it costs you so much..."

"It doesn't matter. I've already booked the room anyway."

Led by the waiter, Ke Chen swaggered into Jiahui.

Seeing this, Ren Jieman hurriedly jogged to catch up.

Brother Chen is still so casual when it comes to spending money...

The two of them came to the box and sat down, which made Ren Jieman, who had never been to such a high-end occasion, look around curiously.

The decoration style is luxurious, with crystal chandeliers hanging overhead.

There is also a huge floor-to-ceiling window on the east side, from which you can overlook the busy night scene of the street with just a glance, making people sigh at the prosperity of this city.

"What kind of soup base do you like?"

Ke Chen handed the menu to Ren Jieman, and she was surprised when she opened it.

The cheapest hotpot base listed above costs 398, and the most expensive grouper hotpot base costs 998!

"Um... Brother Chen, you choose. I can eat anything."

"it is good."

Ren Jieman quickly closed the menu, glanced at Ke Chen who was ordering from the waiter, and couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts again.

I thought I had concealed it well enough, but Brother Chen saw through it anyway.

Not only that, he was even considerate enough to take me out for dinner.

Sure enough, he is very different from the impression I have of the rich second generation.

Ren Jieman couldn't help but steal a glance at Ke Chen. After seeing his handsome profile, her eyes were actually a little obsessed for a moment.

He is handsome and has a gentle personality.

Even without money, these advantages are enough to make him the perfect man in the hearts of many girls!

While Ren Jieman was concentrating on herself, Ke Chen's mind was completely focused on the menu.

In addition to appetizers, many seafood dishes are marked with seasonal prices, and any order starts at four digits.

But this makes no difference to Ke Chen, he even wants to give it a try.

If you have money, shouldn't you indulge yourself a little?
"Well...except for the king crab which is too big to eat, let's take turns with the others."

Ke Chen was too lazy to choose carefully. After handing the menu back to the surprised waiter, a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Bring two servings of each type of seafood, and separate them into shabu-shabu and other flavors. When we are full, you can stop serving, okay?"
