960,000 to Make My Sister Happy

"When you saw Mr. Lu had no money, you wanted to cut ties with him. Now that you've seen he's rich, you want to add him back on WeChat. How can you be so shameless?"

"You thought earning 300,000 a month made you such a big shot. Mr. Lu made a donation. What about you? You earned 300,000, but did you donate a single cent to the school?"

Yang Shaoyu's face turned beet red, and his parents had lost all face as well. They hung their heads, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Lu Yuan paid the jumping clown no more attention and went to the bike shed to collect his vehicle. Several girls were already waiting beside his electric scooter.

A girl with delicate features, dressed in a JK uniform and white stockings, hooked an arm around Lu Yuan's neck and said affectionately, "Big brother!"

She was Lu Yuan's biological younger sister, Lu Shishi, and the two had always been inseparable.

Several other girls stood beside Lu Shishi: Lin Lin, He Min, and Qiu Qianqian. They were all her roommates.

"Brother Lu, it's Shishi's birthday today, and we want to celebrate with her. Can you let her come home a little later?" Qiu Qianqian fluttered her eyelashes and looked at Lu Yuan expectantly.

Lu Yuan slapped his forehead. That was right—it was Shishi's birthday today. He had been so caught up in his girlfriend Wang Yan breaking up with him that he had forgotten. He smiled and said, "Sure! I haven't prepared a present for Shishi yet, so let's all go together!"

In the past, if Lu Yuan had received the enormous sum of ten trillion, he would definitely have wanted to share the joy with Wang Yan. Now, he only wanted to spend money to improve his family's lives.

Now that he had money, it was time to start enjoying life properly.

"Wow, Brother Lu, you're the best! We thought you wouldn't agree!"

They shared a taxi to the largest financial street in Magic City.

Together, they went into a skincare boutique.

Qiu Qianqian was the wealthiest of his sister's roommates. She picked out a lipstick and handed it to her. "Shishi, here's a 500-yuan lipstick for you. Happy birthday."

The other two girls weren't well-off. They bought his sister a ring and a necklace, each costing less than 1,000 yuan.

Just then, a girl around Lu Shishi's age came over with her older brother. "Bro, I want that lipstick set that costs over 3,000. Buy it for me, please!"

"And I want this Chanel perfume too. It's only a little over 4,000..."

As the girl was picking things out, she spotted Lu Shishi and the others. "Lu Shishi! This is the biggest financial street in Magic City, after all, and you came here just to buy lipstick for a little over 500 yuan? It takes real talent for you and your roommates to come all the way here to make fools of yourselves."

Lu Yuan glanced curiously at his sister. "You know her?"

Lu Shishi nodded. "She's our classmate, Xu Bing. We've never gotten along."

"It's just a few thousand yuan for skincare products. What's there to show off about...?" Several of Lu Shishi's friends muttered unhappily.

Though Lu Shishi's roommates spoke quietly, Xu Bing still heard them. She sneered, "'Just a few thousand yuan'? You make it sound like you can afford it!"

How could Lu Yuan fail to notice his sister's low spirits? He took a set of face creams priced at over 50,000 yuan straight from the display case and held it up to her. "Shishi, do you like it? If you do, I'll buy it for you!"

After seeing the price tag, Lu Shishi hesitated for only a moment before turning her head away. "No, I don't like it. Bro, you should save your money for yourself and my sister-in-law!"

"You don't have a sister-in-law anymore. That materialistic woman has already broken up with me," Lu Yuan said mildly.

Lu Shishi still refused. "Even so, don't go spending money on me. The cost of living in Magic City is so high, and you need money too..."

His sister's thoughtfulness was enough to make his heart ache. Lu Yuan reassured her, "It's fine! I recently came into a windfall, so I'm not short of money. If you like it, we'll buy it."

Xu Bing cut in from the side. "You're poor and incapable, so don't blame the woman for being materialistic. I thought you were some rich guy, but you're just another poor loser!"

Lu Yuan said to the salesclerk, "Four sets of face cream, and twelve of those lipsticks over there that cost more than 30,000 each. How much is this whole set of the latest facial care products in the country?"

The salesclerk quickly replied, "Sir, the full set contains toner, facial cleanser, whitening cream, lipstick, mascara, and essence masks. It's 99,999 yuan per set."

"All right, give me four sets of those too."

Xu Bing was starting to feel uncomfortable. "Buying such expensive things-can you afford them?"

The salesclerk beside them was also stunned and said uncertainly, "Sir, that comes to 960,000 yuan. Are you sure?"

Lu Yuan took his bank card from his wallet and said with an easy expression, "Bring me the card terminal. I'll pay by card!"

The salesclerk hurried to fetch the terminal.

Xu Bing clenched her fists and kept muttering under her breath, "Insufficient funds, insufficient funds..."

[Beep! Card payment successful, exactly 960,000 yuan!]

[Payment received: exactly 960,000 yuan!]

The electronic voice rang throughout the boutique's main hall, making many people turn to look.

Lu Yuan was dressed in ordinary clothes and didn't look at all like someone who could come up with 960,000 yuan.

Before everyone could recover from their shock, Lu Yuan spoke again. "Shishi, these are what I bought for you. There are four sets of face cream, one for each of you in your dorm. Twelve lipsticks, three each. And four sets of skincare products, one for each of you in your dorm as well."

Gulp! The sound of people swallowing hard rang out across the mall.

Wasn't that a little too generous? He had splashed out over 200,000 yuan on gifts even for his sister's friends...

Lu Yuan didn't think much of it. Compared to the ten trillion in his account, spending a million was like a light drizzle.

The followers beside Xu Bing all looked envious.

If they were Lu Shishi's friends, wouldn't they be receiving over 200,000 yuan's worth of skincare products right now too?

Lu Shishi's friends weren't greedy and turned him down. "Brother Lu, these are the birthday presents you bought for your sister Shishi. We can't accept them. They're far too valuable."

Their response made Lu Yuan like them even more.

At their age, girls loved looking pretty and comparing themselves with one another. How many could resist the temptation of more than 200,000 yuan's worth of skincare products?

Yet they weren't greedy, and Lu Yuan was very satisfied with their character.

"I bought them for you, so take them. If you don't, I won't let my Shishi hang out with you anymore. Look after my sister in the dorm from now on, and if anyone bullies her, call me right away."

"I'm not giving you these things for nothing." Lu Yuan had also given them gifts with his sister in mind.

The things in Xu Bing's hands instantly lost their appeal. To hide her embarrassment, she could only lower her head and play with her phone, opening the Happy Family group chat on WeChat.

After seeing the messages in the group chat, she felt even worse.

"@Xu Bing! Isn't there a girl named Lu Shishi in your class? Her brother Lu Yuan was incredibly generous today. He donated 1.2 million to the principal right there in the parents' group chat and said he was going to donate six million to your school. You must make sure you get along with Lu Shishi!"

What? Lu Shishi's brother was actually going to donate six million?!
