Holding the item she wanted, she arrived at the registration desk, where a young woman of about eighteen years old stood in front of the counter.
The girl in the white dress said to her, " Xiao Hong, these are the items that the VIP wants to buy. Please register them."
As Cao Yu walked by, he was constantly being stared at, with eyes full of flattery and fervor. Finally, Xiao Hong handed him a card.
Xiao Hong looked at the red card in Cao Yu's hand with envy and whispered, "Mr. Cao, your top-tier VIP card offers a 40% discount on purchases at our establishment. That's the lowest discount. Additionally, you can use it to redeem any item from our annual Treasure Appraisal Fair."
Cao Yu suddenly said, "40% off? Then I don't want this card anymore, I want to buy it at full price."
"Want a discount? Who do you think you are? Take this card back; whoever wants it can have it."
At that moment, a figure slowly emerged from behind the counter, seemingly surprised, and said, "Kid, you really don't want it? This was specially saved for you."
An elderly woman with white hair and a youthful face; all the service staff bowed respectfully when they saw her.
They shouted in unison, "Greetings, Pavilion Master!"
The old woman nodded. "Yes, you all go ahead and get busy." After saying that, everyone slowly withdrew, leaving her alone to carefully observe Cao Yu.
This old woman was none other than Elder Lin of the Sea God Pavilion, who also served as the part-time head of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
At the Sea God meeting a few days ago, the higher-ups also suggested that the academy should try to get closer to Cao Yu, and ideally make him feel a sense of belonging to the academy.
In this way, he will remember the good things about the academy in the future, and he will not stand idly by when he encounters any difficulties. Thus, the good deed of giving away VIP cards came about.
To her utter surprise, Cao Yu showed absolutely no appreciation, which confirmed what Xuan Zi had said.
In fact, Xuan Zi had already said at the meeting, "Hey! Stop playing these cheap tricks. Do you think I can't see through Little Yu?"
"He's not short of money; he definitely won't take this card."
At first, she didn't believe it. After all, no one had ever seen the Cao Clan's strength with their own eyes. Many people gathered information from rumors and were skeptical about what had happened.
Cao Yu handed the card to Elder Lin, "You can take this card back; I need to pay."
"Are you really not going to reconsider?" Elder Lin asked, still seemingly unwilling to give up.
Cao Yu naturally replied, "I have more money than I can spend, I'll buy it at full price!"
Seeing that he absolutely refused to accept the money, Elder Lin had no choice but to instruct Xiao Hong, "Help him pay the bill. Why are you so stubborn?"
As she spoke, she glared at Cao Yu a few times, then shook her head and turned to leave.
A moment later, Xiao Hong looked up and said, "Mr. Cao, your total bill is five million Gold Soul Coin. Here is your bill, please take a look."
After Tenfold Cashback, that's fifty million.
He was still a little dissatisfied, feeling that he hadn't spent enough money. "Why didn't you buy more?"
Dai Huabin and the others couldn't help but twitch their lips when they heard this. This was truly outrageously extravagant! They even complained that they hadn't spent enough. They had never seen such a strange person before.
The girls in the gold miniskirts then warmly saw them off.
Just as they were about to step out the door, they bowed deeply, and their cleavage became even more impressive.
"Take care, Boss Cao. Welcome back next time."
Okay, I'll just come here again next time.
Cao Yu's frustration vanished instantly, and he decided to visit this place more often when he had free time.
Early the next morning.
Cao Yu arrived at the classroom as usual.
There were a few empty seats in the class; those were for students who hadn't passed the first round of assessments, and they would be busy retaking the exams over the next three days.
If they fail even this last time, then they really have no choice but to pack their bags and leave.
However, the pass rate for the first class was relatively high, and it was estimated that not many students would be eliminated, so no one was worried that anyone would leave the group.
Luo Yan quietly took his hand and whispered, " Treasure Appraisal Fair yesterday fun?"
"It was a lot of fun, I plan to go again more often when I have time."
Since Luo Yan is not a core disciple, she did not receive a Treasure Appraisal Fair card last night, and therefore had no chance to enter the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
However, Cao Yu still brought her a few things after he returned, which made the little girl very happy.
Upon hearing that there was something fun, Luo Yan couldn't help but widen her eyes. "Wow, Brother Yu, tell me, tell me!"
"There's a lot of beauty... oh no, I mean, you can spend a lot of money there! And the people inside are very welcoming."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiao, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but pinch him.
When I turned around to look at her, she glared at me fiercely several times.
At the same time, Xiao Xiao glanced at the people in front of her, then compared them with the women from yesterday, and soon her gaze fell on Luo Yan.
"Ugh, we can't even compare to them! What do they eat to grow so tall? Good heavens!"
Seemingly noticing her gaze, Luo Yan moved smugly, slightly raising her fair chin as if showing off something.
Seeing her arrogant attitude, Xiao Xiao gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, "Hmph! So what? Brother Yu is mine, hehehe!"
She then pulled Cao Yu over, and Luo Yan, not to be outdone, also exerted her strength, leading to a scene of the two women vying for his attention.
Wang Yan, standing on the podium, quietly adjusted his glasses and said, "Ahem! Girls should be mindful of their image. Deal with anything after class."
Then all the students' eyes turned to them.
Suddenly, Xiao Xiao and Luo Yan froze, quickly letting go of Cao Yu's hand, and then sat upright in their seats, not daring to move at all.
However, this scene had already been witnessed by those behind, and everyone couldn't help but chuckle to themselves.
"Alright, quiet down, let's continue the lesson." Wang Yan pressed his hand down, and the classroom gradually quieted down, but those people still couldn't help but look at Cao Yu and the others.
The men were envious and jealous, and so were the women, but Cao Yu and the others pretended not to see it.
Luo Yan secretly wrote a few words on his palm, and it felt ticklish.
" Xiao Xiao is too mean, and she's not even as old as me. Brother Yu, don't pay any attention to her."
The next second, Cao Yu grabbed her hand and wrote, "Big? Where?"
" Brother Yu, you're so annoying." Luo Yan turned her head away shyly, suppressing her anger... and then ignored him.
That evening, a group of people followed Cao Yu to the research institute in the suburbs. Their thoughts from the previous few days were certainly not a joke.
Although I was a bit clumsy when I first started making it, fortunately the man in black was there to patiently guide me, so I didn't make any mistakes.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Cao Yu walked out of the building alone.
After glancing back to make sure no one had noticed, he strode away.
"Ha! The air outside is so much better, let's go."
Once you exit the north gate, the location of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion is not far away.
The girls at the entrance, who were there to greet him, became eager after recognizing him.
"Welcome, Mr. Cao!"
Please follow me.
