"Spending five hundred or a thousand gold soul coins to get a card, surely not many people would do that, right?" Xiao Wu couldn't help but say.
The female attendant walking at the front showed a faint trace of disdain on her face. Xiao Wu's words completely revealed her identity as a common girl; only someone without money and little experience would utter such ignorant remarks.
As the saying goes, poverty limits one's vision. In the eyes of this attendant, the masked girl who had just spoken must have been fortunate enough to tag along with the silver member girl to visit such a place and broaden her horizons.She's seen plenty of customers like this, and then there are the nouveau riche, who come here looking like country bumpkins.
Ning Rongrong replied to Xiao Wu, "There are tons of people getting cards. The one thing Tian Dou City isn't short on is rich people. Silver and gold cards are a status symbol for them. If they don't have one, they'll be looked down upon in their circles."
"This is a bit too extravagant," Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but say.
Her status in the Zhu family wasn't very high before, and this is the first time she's been to a place with such terrifying consumption.The waitress in front curled her lip, a little disdainful, thinking that since she was walking ahead, those behind wouldn't see her little expressions. Little did she know that every subtle expression of hers was being watched by Ao Tian.
Gu Yuena next to Ao Tian also frowned.
"The world of the rich is just like this," Ning Rongrong said.
"You're so rich, why don't you get a gold card?" Xiao Wu asked.
Ning Rongrong stuck out her tongue and said, "I got this card myself. That month, my allowance wasn't quite enough to get a gold card, so I got a silver card instead."The female attendant in front showed a look of surprise for the first time and couldn't help but glance back at Ning Rongrong, trying to identify her status.
She had been working here for quite some time and was generally familiar with the gold members who could access the third floor.
However, Ning Rongrong was wearing a veil that covered her face, making it impossible for the attendant to recognize her.
"Pocket money can get you a silver card? Could she be bluffing?" the attendant thought to herself.Even the wealthiest young masters in Heaven Dou City couldn't easily get a silver card. They usually had to save up their allowance for a few months, and once they got the card, it was enough for them to brag about for a long time.
"You really are a little rich woman," Xiao Wu said enviously.
Ning Rongrong noticed Xiao Wu's envy and said, "What's there to envy? Don't you have a rich husband too?"
As she spoke, she nodded towards Ao Tian in front.
Xiao Wu's face turned red, and she stopped talking.
Being told by Ning Rongrong in front of so many people that Ao Tian was her husband made Xiao Wu feel extremely shy.After all, she was just a twelve-year-old human girl, and to have a husband so quickly, it was something she'd be embarrassed to talk about.
The group went up to the second floor and stopped at the top of the stairs.
"Honorable guests, would you like to dine in the main dining area or in a private room?" the waitress asked.
As she spoke, her gaze lingered on Ao Tian's face for a moment, and she sighed inwardly, "This man is too handsome, but it's a pity he doesn't have the slightest fluctuation of soul power. He even has to rely on a woman to eat here."The facilities on the second floor are similar to those on the first. At the top of the stairs is a spacious dining hall with dozens of tables. Around the hall are beautifully decorated private rooms.
"Is there any difference?" Little Wu asked, puzzled.
Facing Ao Tian and the others, the waitress maintained a professional smile and replied, "This must be your first time here. The food available in the hall and the private rooms is the same, but the private rooms are quieter. If guests don't want to be disturbed, they can dine in a private room."
"I see."Xiao Wu nodded, her gaze turning to Ao Tian.
Such matters were generally decided by Ao Tian.
Ning Rongrong said, "Arrange a top-class private room for us."
"I'm sorry, the top-class private rooms on the second floor are currently full," the waiter said with a smile.
Ning Rongrong looked a little regretful and said, "Then arrange..."
Ao Tian suddenly interrupted Ning Rongrong, saying, "Take us to the third floor."
He raised his hand, a golden card held between his index and middle fingers.The waitress was surprised and took a deep look at Ao Tian, finding his face unfamiliar; she had never seen him before.
"Please, follow me." She smiled and led Ao Tian and the others upstairs.
Ao Tian had only been here a few times, and it had been several years since the last time, so it was normal that these waitresses didn't recognize him.
"Ao Tian, I didn't expect you to be a member here," Xiao Wu said in surprise.
Ao Tian laughed, "I accompanied your Dong'er sister to Heaven Dou City for a few days before, and we ate here a few times."
Ning Rongrong's face was flushed at this moment, as red as fire, and her expression was very awkward.She had just thought that Ao Tian and the others had never been here before, which was why she had been explaining everything along the way. She hadn't expected that Ao Tian was actually a gold member here...
"Damn Ao Tian, deliberately not mentioning that he's a gold member, deliberately making me look foolish." Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth at Ao Tian's back, wishing she could bite him a few times.
"Huh, he just mentioned Sister Dong'er, and he has the Pope's Token. Clearly, his relationship with the Pope is not ordinary. Could it be... that Bibi Dong is actually his sister?" This thought flashed through Ning Rongrong's mind, and she was instantly stunned.Zhu Zhuqing was also intelligent and quick-witted, and she had the same thought as Ning Rongrong. She glanced at Ning Rongrong and found that Ning Rongrong was as shocked as she was.
"But I've never heard of Bibi Dong having a younger brother. Could it be something unknown? But they have different surnames, so they should be cousins or something..." Various guesses kept popping up in Ning Rongrong's mind, and she slowly began to define Ao Tian's identity.
Zhu Zhuqing's thoughts were similar to Ning Rongrong's.
"If he really is Bibi Dong's younger brother, then I really need to build a good relationship with him," Ning Rongrong thought.She wasn't trying to curry favor with the Spirit Hall, but she was worried that the Spirit Hall might pose a threat to the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect in the future. Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect had a cooperative relationship with the empire, she still felt uneasy.
If she could establish a good relationship with Ao Tian, it might prevent the Spirit Hall from targeting the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect.
They went up to the third floor, where there was still a large hall in the center. Sometimes, important figures would hold banquets here, as private rooms were not suitable for large gatherings.
"Room Tian-2," Ao Tian said indifferently.
"Alright, please follow me," the waitress glanced at Ao Tian with a hint of surprise.The most prestigious private room in Yijue Lou is the Tianzi No. 1 on the third floor, but this room is not accessible to ordinary gold members.
Above the gold card, there is a diamond card, which cannot be purchased even with money. The diamond card represents the highest status in Tiandou City.
Yijue Lou determines who is qualified and will proactively issue the diamond card, which does not charge a handling fee.
The number of big figures who possess a diamond card in Tiandou City is very few.
Therefore, gold members who come here will consciously avoid the Tianzi No. 1 private room.If you insist on going in there, you'll only be asking for trouble. You'll be forcibly thrown out by Yijue Tower, and your membership will be revoked and you'll be blacklisted forever.
This kind of thing has happened before.
VIP Room Number One is visited by important figures almost every night. Being blacklisted by Yijue Tower isn't the worst thing; if those important figures take notice of you, you're really finished.
