Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Travel should be done with the whole family.

Ye Chen smiled and shook his head. Oh well, it doesn't matter if one comes or two.

A moment later, my second aunt came over with a smile: "There are three of them, and four of us, which makes a perfect table. How about we treat you to this meal?"

My second aunt was clearly just being polite.

Ye Chen waved his hand: "Auntie, what are you saying? Do you think you'd pay for our trip to Lucheng? If I went back, my mom would beat me with a bamboo cane!"

"Ye Chen, you're not married yet, don't waste money. Your uncle will treat you to this meal!" Second Uncle also came over and said.

"Hehe, it's no big deal. Let me, as your nephew, do my best to be a good host!" Ye Chen said earnestly.

Having money or not is one thing, being a good person is another.

My uncle is coming to my territory, so things definitely need to be arranged properly!

It's their business if someone is being polite, but they can't use that politeness as a reason not to do something.

"Alright, since Ye Chen has said so, let's not argue anymore. We'll just benefit from our nephew's good fortune today!" Auntie said happily.

This meal probably won't be cheap either, and they're going to look at apartments tomorrow, so there are quite a few things they'll need to spend money on. They'll have to be very careful with every penny they have!

If Ye Chen were just a lowly worker earning a few thousand yuan, she would feel somewhat embarrassed.

But Ye Chen earns over ten thousand yuan a month and drives an Audi.

Then she felt much more at ease.

After two rounds of tea, Ye Chen checked the time and then led his second uncle and the others to Longteng Seafood Restaurant.

There were only four of them, so there was no need for two cars. They simply got into Ye Chen's car.

My second aunt sat in the car and secretly checked the A6 on her phone, comparing the interiors.

She was stunned when she discovered the prices online.

It was much higher than she had expected...

She thought Ye Chen was just buying an entry-level Audi to show off, since that's how young people are.

But according to online sources, this configuration would cost around 400,000 to 500,000 yuan to get on the road.

Wow, Ye Chen actually bought such an expensive car!

Where did this kid get so much money? Even if it's a mortgage, the down payment must be quite high!

Oh my, I really underestimated this kid.

She really found it hard to connect the Ye Chen of the past with the Ye Chen of now who drives a car worth hundreds of thousands.

Is this still her poor relative, her nephew?

Even if you earn over 10,000 a month, you can't afford such a nice car, can you even afford to maintain it?

Could this car also belong to his friend? Auntie was a little suspicious.

However, judging from how new the interior of this car is, it looks like it was just picked up.

My second aunt finally resisted the urge to press for an answer.

Two years had passed, and Ye Chen had indeed changed a lot. It seemed she needed to re-evaluate this nephew.

Ye Chen chose this time to set off precisely because he was considering the traffic congestion that might occur on Friday.

They were lucky to avoid traffic at this time of day. If it were later, a 10-minute drive could take them 40 minutes or more.

The waiter had seen Ye Chen when booking the private room that afternoon, so he led Ye Chen directly to the large private room.

The table is a large rotating table, the kind that can seat fourteen or fifteen people.

The four of them sitting down really made the room feel empty.

"Mr. Ye, is the food ready? Would you like to order anything else?" The waiter handed over several menus.

Ye Chen looked at his second uncle and aunt: "Second uncle, aunt, what would you like to eat? Order a few dishes!"

"Hehe, just do what you think is best. We've never eaten here before, so we don't know anything about it!" Second Uncle waved his hand.

"Hey, Second Uncle, you're too kind. If you miss this opportunity, it won't be so easy for me to take advantage of your nephew next time!" Ye Chen joked.

Auntie took the menu and looked at it: "Ye Chen, then I won't be polite!"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Today's focus is on having a good time. Order whatever you want; I can afford to treat you to a meal!"

"How about a king crab? There aren't many of these in our county!" Although my second aunt was asking, she instinctively put a tick under the king crab.

The second uncle frowned and quietly tugged at his second aunt's clothes.

Just a token gesture is fine, why are you actually ordering anything special? And you even picked something a bit pricey, this thing must cost over a thousand yuan, right?

My second aunt seemed oblivious to what was happening, and looking at the menu with some excitement, she said, "Let's get two servings of this bluefin tuna sashimi too! I haven't tried it yet!"

My second uncle snatched the menu from my second aunt's hand: "Why are you eating sashimi? Aren't you afraid of getting diarrhea!"

He saw the price: 2880 per serving.

Holy crap, this woman really doesn't think she's an outsider; she dares to order something so expensive.

To avoid putting Ye Chen in a difficult position, the second uncle snatched the menu and checked off a few of the cheaper dishes at the bottom.

"That's fine, no need for sashimi, we can't finish it all!"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Order whatever you want. It's just sashimi, two servings, please!"

"Hey, Ye Chen, really, really don't want to! That stuff is ridiculously expensive. What if you get diarrhea after eating it? It's not worth it!" Second Uncle hurriedly tried to dissuade him.

Ye Chen naturally knew that his second uncle was trying to save him money.

It has to be his maternal uncle!

But his second aunt's face darkened; Ye Chen still had some sense.

Ye Chen didn't take the two servings of sashimi seriously at all. Today, he was going to establish his uncle's status in the family.

Ye Chen turned to the waiter and said, "Two bluefin tuna sashimi platters!"

Sure enough, after hearing Ye Chen say that, Second Aunt's expression improved a little!

"Tingting, would you like to order a few things?" Ye Chen asked Chen Tingting.

Tingting quickly waved her hand, "Never mind, you guys order!"

The prices aren't cheap at all; one king crab would exceed her meal allowance.

"Let's leave it at that for now. We'll order the rest when my aunt and brother arrive." Ye Chen handed the menu to the waiter.

"Everyone's not here yet, we'll come later!"

The waiter bowed slightly and left the private room.

My aunt's younger brother didn't keep them waiting long either; he arrived about an hour later...

My aunt's younger brother was a bald, middle-aged man with a large gold chain around his neck.

Big face and thick neck, either a boss or a cook!

"Oh my god, sis, brother-in-law, have you been waiting long?!"

The bald, middle-aged man casually found a seat and slammed his Mercedes car keys on the table.

"Damn, this city is so congested!" The bald middle-aged man was not at all shy, opened a pack of cigarettes on the table and started offering them to others.

Accompanying him were a stylishly dressed middle-aged woman and a blond-haired teenager.

That must be his wife and son.

Ye Chen looked at the blond-haired man and realized he didn't seem very old; he was probably younger than Chen Tingting.

I guess they're around high school age!

Doesn't the school care?

Ye Chen gestured for them to sit down and called the waiter to bring the menu.

"This is my nephew, Ye Chen. Tonight is a welcome dinner he arranged!" Ye Chen's second uncle took the initiative to introduce him.

The bald, middle-aged man nodded to Ye Chen: "Hehe, thank you for spending so much!"
