# Chapter 76: The Joy of the Rich, We Just Don't Get It

The next day.

Zhong Yingxue was busy all day preparing for Grandpa Zhong's birthday banquet.

And Xia Yao's family background was extremely strong, with countless connections to the Zhong family!

So she naturally had to attend as well.

Jiangnan, on the other hand, spent the whole day tidying up his room!

Arranging the room the way he liked it...

In the afternoon, he finally had some free time.

He was planning to absorb a good batch of Spirit Pearls and level up.

But then his door was pushed open!

Zhong Yingxue appeared in a white evening gown, her black hair tied up high!

She looked like an elegant white swan.

So beautiful it made one's heart race...

Jiangnan stared blankly for a long time, then grinned: "Xuexue is really beautiful!"

Zhong Yingxue chuckled: "Only you would say that! Hurry up and get ready, the banquet is about to start!"

Xia Yao popped out from the side.

For once, she was dressed formally. Her black gown was quite bold, revealing large patches of snow-white back.

Paired with her short silver hair, she was an absolute treat for the eyes.

Xia Yao: "You're driving later, okay? My outfit isn't convenient..."

Jiangnan: "Okay!"

"Let's go!"

With that, he got off the bed, slipped on his slippers, and headed for the door.

Xia Yao and Zhong Yingxue were stunned.

"Wait, you're going dressed like that?"

Jiangnan was wearing big shorts and small slippers!

Plus a white casual T-shirt with a cartoon "囧" character printed on it!

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Zhong Yingxue smiled bitterly: "There's a huge problem!"

Wearing that, he probably wouldn't even get through the hotel doors!

Xia Yao said: "I think I remember having a gown that came as a gift with the car. I'll go get it for you!"

"Try it on and see if it fits..."

So ten minutes later.

Jiangnan stood before them in a black suit and tie.

A devil-may-care attitude!

Plus his considerable height.

And a face that hit the ceiling of good looks.

He was so handsome it was explosive!

He even wore a dandy butterfly bow tie!

And a white handkerchief tucked into his breast pocket.

Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao both nodded in satisfaction.

"The boy cleans up pretty well, huh!"

"Awesome, let's go!"

Jiangnan, however, felt extremely uncomfortable all over.

No matter how he wore it, it felt wrong. How could it compare to his big shorts and short-sleeved shirt?

This time, Xia Yao didn't drive the Mercedes G!

Instead, she tossed Jiangnan the keys to a Rolls-Royce Phantom.

Sitting in the car, Jiangnan gripped the steering wheel.

[Skill Triggered! Driving (Beginner): LV0!]

[Skill Points Added: 100!]

[Skill Upgraded! Driving (Proficient): LV0!]

With the roar of the engine, the flying golden emblem weaved through the bustling traffic.

Xia Yao was shocked: "Xiao Nan! You actually know how to drive? Don't you not have a license?"

Originally, she wanted to embarrass Jiangnan!

Get back at him for turning her naked!

She never expected Jiangnan could actually drive!

Zhong Yingxue was also curious: "When did you learn?"

Jiangnan: "There's nothing I can't do! Just learned it!"

Xia Yao pouted: "Hmph, bragging!"

Zhong Yingxue snickered: "Looking at him like this, he really does seem like a chauffeur!"

"Having such a handsome driver, you should count your blessings!"

Along the way, they arrived at Jiangcheng Century Hotel!

As soon as Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao got out of the car,

They attracted everyone's attention!

"Look! Look! Those two are way too beautiful!"

"I can't take my eyes off them for a second!"

"Miss Zhong! Miss Xia! Geez, they're so gorgeous it's ridiculous!"

"Whoa? Even the driver is that handsome?"

Xia Yao and Zhong Yingxue didn't want to be surrounded by so many people, so they went ahead first.

Jiangnan had just parked the car.

He hadn't taken two steps when a curly-haired, white-suited, gold-rimmed-spectacled effeminate man walked over.

He glanced at Jiangnan, and Jiangnan glanced back at him...

The air was still for a full ten seconds!

Then the effeminate man handed over his car key.

He pressed lightly, and the lights of a nearby Porsche 911 flashed.

"Here!"

Jiangnan's eyes went wide!

???

Damn!

I really don't understand the world of the rich!

You meet someone and immediately give them a sports car?

Just because I looked at you one extra time in the crowd?

So generous! Way too damn generous!

Even if I am a bit handsome, and you're captivated by my looks,

That doesn't mean you have to go this far, right?

Jiangnan said shyly: "This... this isn't good, is it?"

He sincerely wanted to give it!

And Jiangnan didn't feel right taking it!

Effeminate man: "Why are you making such a fuss?"

With that, he shoved the key into Jiangnan's hand!

Jiangnan: ???

Is this the joy of being rich?

666!

The keys were already in his hand!

Why not take them?

So he stuffed the keys into his pocket...

As he walked, he sighed.

Walking along and someone just hands you a car?

Awesome!

He hadn't gone two more steps.

A woman who looked like a rich matron saw Jiangnan, and without a word, threw her car keys at him.

Jiangnan: ???

He pressed the key, and a Lamborghini Aventador flashed?

What the hell is going on here?

Do you rich people just have money falling from the sky?

You see a handsome guy and give him a car?

Two more steps, and a potbellied man tossed Jiangnan another set of keys.

BMW X7?

Bro, you're not really stepping up!

Everyone else is giving supercars!

And you're giving away a crappy BMW?

Got to say, that's a bit cheap!

But still, it's a gesture of goodwill, so Jiangnan accepted it without guilt.

By the time Jiangnan walked out of the parking lot, he had seventeen car keys stuffed in his pockets!

He sighed with emotion!

Eating off one's looks is really satisfying!

When I have time, I'll attend a few more banquets and then open a used car dealership.

Life would be sweet!

Just as Jiangnan was about to enter the hotel, he glanced sideways.

He suddenly spotted a waiter whose evening gown was almost identical to his!

Same bow tie! Pocket square!

The waiter was smilingly receiving guests, taking their car keys.

Then he went to park their cars!

After a while, the waiter came back, looking bewildered: "What's going on? The parking lot is jammed!"

"Over a dozen cars are blocking the entrance. Who's in charge of that area?"

...

Jiangnan looked at the seventeen car keys in his hand!

His face turned black as coal!

So they all thought I was the valet parking attendant?

Damn!

Are you people blind?

Have you ever seen a valet this handsome?

Do those two big eyes on your face just exist for decoration?

Jiangnan thought these people had some weird fetish.

Meeting someone and immediately giving them a car!

Xia Yao!

You little traitor!

What kind of outfit did you pick out for me?

It's practically identical, isn't it?

Jiangnan ripped off his bow tie and pocket square and threw them into the trash bin!

Then he found the lost and found at the guard's booth and dumped all seventeen car keys on the table...

The old security guard was dumbfounded. What the hell? What's going on?

Jiangnan said, full of resentment: "Someone lost them. I found them..."

The guard: "Seventeen keys lost at once?"

"You're not one of those guys who makes keys on the street corner, are you?"

Jiangnan glared. First a valet?

Now a key maker?

Will this ever end?

"Can't they lose them as a group?"

[From Security Guard: Resentment +666!]
