Chapter 231: Chapter 171: A Top-Floor Suite for 88,000 a Night?

After Jiang Silu returned to the dorm.

Her roommates were just getting up.

When Song Miaomiao saw her, she asked, "Lulu, did you have fun? Did you see the sunrise?"

Jiang Silu answered, "I did. It was beautiful."

Lu Yao, who was on the balcony washing up, saw Jiang Silu was back and immediately asked, "Lulu, did you see the sunrise?"

"Yeah."

"Do you have pictures? Quick, let me see."

Jiang Silu opened the photo album on her phone and showed it to Lu Yao.

After looking at them, Lu Yao couldn’t help but exclaim, "Oh my god, it’s so beautiful! Ugh, I want to go so badly."

She looked at Jiang Silu and said plaintively, "Lulu, you have to take us with you next time."

Hearing this, Liu Shiting explained, "Lulu went with her dad, so we shouldn’t get in the way. I can drive us all next time."

"Really? Shiting, you’re the best!" Lu Yao said happily.

Liu Shiting looked at the photos and noticed a panoramic shot of a floor-to-ceiling window, which made her curious. "I’ve been to Huang Mountain before and stayed at a hotel on the summit, but how come I’ve never seen a view like this?"

Jiang Silu answered sheepishly, "I’m not sure. The elevator went to the very top floor, and our room was the highest one."

Liu Shiting was stunned. "Don’t tell me you stayed in the top-floor suite at the Lan’er Hotel?"

"I think so," Jiang Silu nodded.

Lu Yao, who was standing to the side, asked curiously, "What’s wrong, Shiting? Is there something special about that suite?"

"It’s the highest top-floor suite on Huang Mountain. One night costs eighty-eight thousand, eight hundred," Liu Shiting explained.

At her words, Lu Yao and Song Miaomiao were both dumbfounded.

Even Jiang Silu was shocked.

She had assumed a top-floor suite like that would cost about the same as a presidential suite at most—thirty or forty thousand a night.

She never imagined it would actually cost eighty-eight thousand, eight hundred for a single night!

If she hadn’t been leaning against the wardrobe, her legs would have given out.

Liu Shiting was also deeply shaken. She never expected Uncle Lu to take Jiang Silu to stay in such a luxurious top-floor suite.

At that particular hotel, the price of a suite went up with every floor.

Back when she stayed there, her room was only on a middle floor, and it had already cost ten thousand a night.

And her parents had only chosen a higher-floor suite to satisfy her vanity for taking pictures.

As for the two of them, they stayed on a lower floor.

After all, Liu Shiting’s family wasn’t so rich that every member could stay on a middle or high floor.

Because of that, she had always felt that among her peers, she was one of those who were doted on endlessly by her parents.

When she saw the top-floor suite Uncle Lu had arranged for Jiang Silu, it would be a lie to say she wasn’t envious.

This made Liu Shiting even more curious about what exactly Lu Fan did for a living and where he lived.

So, she asked, "By the way, Silu, do you know where your dad lives?"

"A huge mansion, for sure," Lu Yao answered instantly.

She felt that with Uncle Lu’s means, even living in a luxury apartment seemed too unimaginative.

It has to be a giant mansion!!

Although Song Miaomiao didn’t say anything, she had also concluded from everything that had happened that Lu Fan was very likely a big boss who did, in fact, live in a huge mansion.

Jiang Silu didn’t deny it. She blushed and explained, "He lives in Zijin Mountain Villa. I think it really is a mansion. I saw the entrance, and it was incredibly magnificent."

"So you didn’t go in?" Lu Yao asked curiously.

Jiang Silu grew embarrassed. "I... I wasn’t mentally prepared yet."

"What’s there to be afraid of? That’s your dad’s house, which means it’s your house, you silly girl," Lu Yao coaxed. "You should hurry up and go see your home. Then we can come over and hang out!"

Seeing Lu Yao constantly pushing and prodding, Song Miaomiao comforted Jiang Silu, "It’s okay. If you’re not ready to go to your dad’s house, just take your time. Yaoyao, don’t give bad advice."

Lu Yao grumbled, "Geez, I was just making a comment. Having such a luxurious home and not living in it—isn’t that a waste?"

Liu Shiting chimed in, explaining, "Lulu’s situation is different from what we imagine. We shouldn’t give too much advice. We should just let Lulu follow her heart."

"Alright, alright, I get it," Lu Yao sighed. "If my dad had a huge mansion like that, I’d go home every single day~"

Jiang Silu didn’t say anything to that, but she was weighing things in her heart.

’It would be a lie to say she didn’t want to live in a huge mansion.

Who wouldn’t want to live in a big house? Who wouldn’t want a huge bedroom?

But if she went to enjoy herself at her father’s house, wouldn’t her brother and mother be left in a miserable situation?

She couldn’t bring herself to secretly indulge in luxury alone while her brother and mother suffered.

Joy is better when shared.

If she was going to enjoy that life, then they should all be reunited and live there together.’

Since it was Sunday, Liu Shiting went home after she finished washing up.

Mrs. Liu was watching TV in the living room and was a little surprised to see her. "What are you doing home today? Don’t you have classes?"

"Mom, it’s the weekend..."

Mrs. Liu smacked her forehead. "Oh, right. I completely forgot."

Liu Shiting sat on the sofa and scooted closer to her mom. "Mom, can I ask you something?"

"What is it?"

"Have you heard of Zijin Mountain Villa?"

Mrs. Liu paused for a moment. "Zijin Mountain Villa? You mean the mansions over by Zijin Mountain? Why the sudden question?"

Liu Shiting answered, "Silu said her dad lives in Zijin Mountain Villa. Have you ever heard of that development’s name?"

Mrs. Liu thought for a moment, then shook her head. "There are a few mansion districts over by Zijin Mountain, but I honestly don’t know one called ’Mountain Villa.’ Wait for your dad to get back and ask him. He’s out and about more, so he knows more."
