"Check-in successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining a group worth hundreds of billions."

Hu Tu didn’t pay attention to the voice in his mind, thinking it was just his imagination.

“A bit surprised, you’re actually a handsome guy. I’ve been on at least twenty blind dates, but you’re the first one whose looks I approve of.”

The girl sitting opposite Hu Tu, who looked to be around twenty-five or twenty-six, had a beauty score of eighty and a dignified demeanor. She smiled as she spoke.

This blind date was arranged by Hu Tu’s colleague. Originally, he didn’t want to come because he had nothing—no car, no house, and no money. But he was eventually forced to come.

His colleague said that this beauty only cared about looks and had no other requirements.

And Hu Tu just happened to have good looks, standing at a height of 180 cm, which satisfied the girls. Thus, the blind date was arranged.

“Thank you, you’re very beautiful too.” Hu Tu replied.

Lin Yue didn’t feel much; there were too many men who had complimented her on her beauty. Hearing it now, she didn’t even have a ripple in her heart.

But she still nodded politely at Hu Tu.

“My colleague said that you only have requirements for the appearance of your blind date partner and don’t care about material things. Is that true?”

To avoid awkwardness, Hu Tu, who was usually quiet, started talking more.

“Yes, that’s what I said.”

Lin Yue admitted frankly, without any hesitation.

But the words “said” were deeply etched in Hu Tu’s heart.

Sure enough, women, when choosing a marriage partner, wouldn’t be so shallow as to only look at appearance.

They’re not like teenage girls looking for boyfriends.

“Don’t be so disheartened. Although I won’t be with you just because of your looks, I’m still happy to sit here and chat with you today.”

Lin Yue smiled charmingly, comforting him and seeing through his thoughts.

Since he was already here, Hu Tu didn’t rush to leave.

As she said, even if they couldn’t be together, chatting and passing the time wasn’t bad.

“Yeah, let’s chat then.” Hu Tu didn’t feel disappointed. He had dated three girlfriends who were even more beautiful and had better figures than Lin Yue.

What did it matter if he missed out on one of her?

“So, what kind of material conditions do you have for a man?”

Out of curiosity, Hu Tu still asked.

“What? You’re not trying to meet these standards to pursue me, are you?”

Lin Yue pretended to joke, but there was some truth in her words.

“You can think that way. Tell me what they are.”

Hu Tu wasn’t too concerned about her opinion.

Although he didn’t dislike materialistic women, he didn’t have any good feelings for them either.

So, even if he made money in the future, he wouldn’t choose a woman like Lin Yue.

“Since you want to know, I’ll tell you.”

Lifting her snow-white chin, Lin Yue looked like a proud swan: “First, he needs to have a house, and it should be within the Third Ring. The Fourth and Fifth Rings are too far and remote, and I don’t like them. I prefer a lively city life.”

“Second, his annual salary. I’m not too strict about this, but it should be at least 500,000.”

“Third, his looks and height. For this, I think you can be the standard.”

“Of course, being good to me, filial to my parents, and having a good character are also basic requirements. Otherwise, no matter how much he earns, I won’t consider him.”

Her tone was decisive, leaving no room for negotiation.

Lin Yue’s material requirements were quite high for Hu Tu.

He didn’t have a house, even outside the Fourth or Fifth Ring.

Second, his annual salary wasn’t 500,000.

With his education, even if he spent his entire youth in this city, he probably wouldn’t meet this standard.

“It seems we really don’t have any chemistry. You have these conditions, and I only meet the appearance requirement.” Hu Tu deliberately mocked himself.

“Yes, indeed, we don’t have any chemistry. Actually, I think your personality is quite good, but… you earn a bit less.” Lin Yue rejected him tactfully, not wanting to give Hu Tu any chance to pursue her.

Of course, Hu Tu didn’t show a pitiful face, hoping for her charity.

“I heard from my colleague that your annual salary is about the same as mine, around 100,000, and you’re not from the capital. Yet, your requirements are to have a capital household registration and an annual salary several times higher than yours. I feel it might be a bit hard to find someone like that!”

Unable to hold back, Hu Tu said what he really thought.

What he said was true. Before the blind date, his colleague had given him a rough introduction to Lin Yue’s situation.

“Oh, that’s nothing. Some girls who aren’t as beautiful as me can find a handsome guy with an annual salary of a million. I’m more beautiful than them and have lower requirements, so I shouldn’t have any trouble finding someone.”

Lin Yue waved her hand, not caring at all.

“Don’t worry about me. With my conditions, finding someone who meets my requirements won’t be hard. Let’s talk about something else.”

She showed some impatience. She had a little bit of good feeling for Hu Tu, but after he said that, even that little bit disappeared.

Just saying that and showing an unhappy face, how petty. Hu Tu thought, and his impression of Lin Yue worsened even more.

At this moment, the customers in Starbucks started to make a commotion.

They were shouting and staring wide-eyed at something outside.

Out of curiosity, Hu Tu and Lin Yue’s gazes were also drawn to the outside, and they turned to look.

When they saw the scene outside, they also showed the same surprised expression as the others.

At that moment, outside Starbucks, there was a row of low-key yet luxurious cars, all in cool black, with nearly twenty of them.

This was just within their line of sight. If they counted those outside their view, there were as many as fifty.

These luxury cars were all Maybach S series, each with a market price of no less than 3 million.

If all these Maybachs were added together, their value would be 1.5 billion Tianlan coins.

This amount was a number that 99.9% of people on Tianlan Planet could never earn in their entire lives.

This also showed how significant the source of this convoy was.

After the Maybach luxury cars stopped, a group of men in suits, all tall and well-built, with heights no less than 180 cm, and a presence that could outshine the bodyguards of celebrities, got out of the cars.

After getting out, these men hurried to the entrance of Starbucks, forming two rows, creating a human path.

At this moment, the extended Maybach at the front, with the help of a man in a suit, opened its door.

Then, a cold and beautiful woman, with a noble demeanor and a beauty score of 95, wearing a black fitted uniform, slowly got out of the car.
