Chapter 234: Wearing One Pair of Pants
As soon as he entered the school gate, Ding Yi started causing trouble.
He got the phone number of the proprietress of Haibaofang from Huang Xiaochuan, and then took out his mobile phone.
"Boss lady, how much is an all-inclusive room at Haibao Boat for one night?"
"I'm not kidding you, tell me! How much?"
"Thirty thousand? Okay, I'll cover it, tonight."
"Not tonight? Damn it! I'll give you 40,000, can you do that?"
"fifty thousand!"
"That's more like it!"
Ding Yi hung up the phone and found that the other four people were looking at him, all with shocked expressions!
Ding Yi felt very pleased. "I love seeing you guys so naive and unsophisticated."
He even boasted, "The landlady isn't going to cooperate. She said tonight wouldn't work. But if that doesn't work, I'll just throw money at her. See? That'll solve it!"
Damn it, Huang Xiaochuan wanted nothing more than to slap this guy to death. He thought this kid was just treating everyone to a meal, but who would have thought he'd pull this stunt? He actually spent 50,000 yuan to book the entire restaurant? How could he be such a sucker?
But that's not all; Ding Yi has more tricks up his sleeve.
They dragged Huang Xiaochuan and his friends to the dormitory building where the girls in their class lived.
He craned his neck and shouted, "Zhai Xi!"
His shout woke everyone in the dormitory building.
Zhai Xi was discussing her neighbor's new perm with her roommates, thinking about getting one herself on Sunday, though it was a bit pricey.
Hearing someone calling her downstairs, Wang Silan, who was closest to the window, looked down and then looked on with a puzzled expression.
"Zhai Xi, the class monitor and Huang Xiaochuan and the others are calling you downstairs. Do they need something?"
"Let me see, let me see," Zhai Xi said, quickly walking to the window and looking down.
Seeing Zhai Xi peek out, Ding Yi waved to her and called out, "Come down! I need to talk to you."
Zhai Xi replied, "Coming!"
Then, looking puzzled, he prepared to go downstairs.
"They haven't been here all day, and they didn't attend any classes. What do they want from me now?" Zhai Xi wondered to herself.
Upon meeting Zhai Xi, Ding Yi told her, "Tonight I'm treating the whole class to a big meal. You're in charge of notifying the girls. Meet at the school gate at six o'clock. Once everyone's there, take a taxi to Haibaofang on Huanghe Road. I'll pay for the taxi fare."
Zhai Xi was a little confused. What was going on? Why was he suddenly treating the whole class to dinner? Had Ding Gungun lost his mind?
Seeing that Zhai Xi didn't respond for a while, Ding Yi asked, "Vice Squad Leader, did you hear me when I spoke to you just now?"
"Are you really going to treat the whole class to dinner? You're not kidding us, are you?"
"Look, the class monitor is here to vouch for me and see if I'm lying to you."
Zhai Xi looked at Wu Duo, who nodded with a wry smile. Only then did Zhai Xi believe that Ding Yi's words were true.
Since someone was willing to treat everyone, Zhai Xi, being the fiery little lady she is, naturally wouldn't stand on her own two feet.
"Then I'll go get some people? But it's such a rush, there's no guarantee we can find everyone."
Ding Yi said nonchalantly, "We'll take as many as we can. It's settled then. We'll meet at the school gate at six. We're leaving now; I still need to gather the male students."
Ding Yixing rushed back to the dormitory building, running around excitedly like a husky, notifying all the male classmates he could, including Hao Zhidu. Although they no longer kept in touch, since the whole class had been invited, he figured he might as well invite Hao Zhidu too.
Unfortunately, Hao Zhidu didn't return the call at all. Ding Yi paged him three times in a row but got no response. Since that was the case, he decided to let it go.
Besides Hao Zhidu, two other female classmates were absent for various reasons. There were a total of 26 students in Economics Class 1, and 23 actually attended. Excluding the five students from dormitory 222, the other 18 students took several taxis to Haibao Boat first. Ding Yi even paid the taxi fares in advance.
Huang Xiaochuan then summoned Zhou Wei and the others, and they drove two cars to Haibaofang.
Along the way, Huang Xiaochuan couldn't help but criticize Ding Yi a few times.
"Damn it, why are you making such a fuss over a meal?"
Ding Yi put his hands behind his head and leaned back in the passenger seat: "Don't worry about me. I'm happy today, so don't try to persuade me. Let me have some fun tonight, and I'll be fine tomorrow. I know what I'm doing."
Seeing that he knew his limits, Huang Xiaochuan didn't say anything more to him.
They're all young people, and suddenly having so much wealth, it's no wonder they're going crazy. Ding Yi is already showing some restraint. Huang Xiaochuan, who has lived two lives, also wanted to go crazy, but he was able to control himself.
After Zhai Xi and her entourage disembarked at the entrance of the Haibaofang, more than a dozen people stood outside, too afraid to go in.
Eight waitresses in cheongsams with slits up to their thighs stood on either side of the store entrance, ready to welcome the VIPs for the evening. A group of female classmates stood at the door pointing and whispering. Zhai Xi wanted to go in, but was pulled back by her roommate Wang Silan.
"Should we wait for Ding Yi and the others to arrive before going in? What kind of place is this?"
Less than five minutes later, Ding Yi arrived with Huang Xiaochuan and the others. Reaching the door, he said, "What are you all doing standing outside? Hurry up and come in!"
He then led the way inside, at which point a beautiful woman approached him and asked, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Ding, who has reserved the entire venue tonight?"
Ding nodded slightly: "It's me!"
Upon hearing this, the two women in cheongsams bowed in unison and greeted them: "Good evening, sir and madam. Welcome to Haibao Restaurant. We wish you a pleasant meal tonight!"
Good heavens! This scene startled some of the students, who quickly ran into the restaurant.
Zhai Xizhe muttered to Wang Silan, "How much does it cost to eat here? It doesn't look cheap!"
Wang Silan nodded and whispered in Zhai Xi's ear, "I glanced at it when I came in just now, and there was a lot of seafood, and the prices were ridiculously expensive, more than my monthly living expenses."
"Is Ding Yi over? Why did he decide to bring us to such a high-end restaurant?" Zhai Xi asked, somewhat puzzled.
Wang Silan suddenly thought of a possibility: "Hey! Zhai Xi, does Ding Yi have a crush on that girl in our class? Is this how he invited her to dinner?"
Zhai Xi nodded: "What you said is very likely! I'll ask Huang Xiaochuan later. He's in cahoots with Ding Yi, he must know something."
Huang Xiaochuan overheard this and rolled his eyes in annoyance.
What do you mean I'm in cahoots with Ding Yi? That sounds so awkward.
As per Ding Yi's request, a luxurious private room was set up with two large tables covered with pristine white tablecloths. Fresh flowers were placed in the center of the round tables, and high-end tableware was neatly arranged, showcasing the restaurant's luxuriousness at all times.
This meal truly opened the eyes of the students in Economics Class 1. Even those from the seaside had never eaten so much seafood. The proprietress came over several times in person and toasted them several times, afraid of not being able to treat them well enough. This was a big customer, and she couldn't be neglected. Moreover, when she was drinking with Ding Yi, she almost sat on Ding Yi's lap.
This scene made some students wonder if Ding Yi and the glamorous landlady were having an affair. Look, the landlady is even acting coquettishly towards him. Ugh, it gave me goosebumps.
Huang Xiaochuan was filled with regret. He should have brought the camera with him. He could have taken pictures of everything and then shown the kid his true colors tonight when he sobered up!
Unsurprisingly, Ding Yi was drunk, and Huang Xiaochuan paid the bill for him. "Damn Ding Yi!" Huang Xiaochuan cursed as he took money out of his bag.
