Chapter 147 Please Be a Good Person
After leaving the club, Raymond's eyes lit up as he looked at Elizabeth. "So, how are we gonna spend this 15,000 Veridiania currency?"
He was all about living in the moment and spending money to motivate himself to earn more. Plus, Elizabeth helped them make money, making her even more likable, an outcome he wanted to achieve.
Elizabeth checked the time and suggested, "Let's book a hotel first. We can check in now, rest for an hour, and then grab a good meal."
She pulled out a card with the hotel's location. "There's a famous five-star hotel with a fireworks show tonight for their anniversary. The production team wants us to watch it. Let's book three rooms with a good view. We'll enjoy the show and stay there, killing two birds with one stone."
Raymond agreed, "Perfect idea."
He grinned, "Following Elizabeth to an easy win is just awesome."
[Raymond: Doing nothing is too comfortable!]
[I've never met someone so shameless.]
[Elizabeth, please help, let me do nothing too.]
[I'm starting to become Elizabeth's fan; I want to do nothing too.]
The live chat was full of jokes about wanting to be on Elizabeth's team, making the atmosphere lively.
Gilbert laughed, "I've never stayed in a five-star hotel, Elizabeth, please help!"
He had made some money initially but then offended Arnold and got suppressed, so he was poor again and hadn't stayed in a five-star hotel.
Elizabeth smiled, "Sure, I'll take you to a good one."
She took out her phone and opened the hotel's page. "There's an anniversary promotion today. A room with a fireworks view is usually 5,999 Veridiania currency, but today it's 3,300."
Since it was the off-season in tourism, there were still rooms available. "I'll book three rooms," Elizabeth said.
Raymond and Gilbert nodded, "Okay!"
Although Gilbert felt a bit pained about the money, he saw that Elizabeth and Raymond didn't mind, so he didn't suggest saving money to avoid spoiling the fun.
Elizabeth booked three rooms, spending 9,900 Veridiania currency. Then the three of them took a cab to the hotel.
[I take back what I said about spending the money in a week; I was too naive.]
[I haven't stayed in a five-star hotel either. Elizabeth, take me too; I'll experience it with them.]
[Me too, today Elizabeth will show me around.]
[At this rate, they'll spend all 15,000 Veridiania currency today.]
[Look at them, so careless about the spending.]
[Watching them spend money is so satisfying!]
[First time watching a variety show where stars use their own earned money to stay in such a good hotel, impressive!]
[Not only earning money herself but also taking two people along.]
[No wonder Raymond and Gilbert want to team up with Elizabeth; it's really too comfortable.]
[Especially compared to the other two groups, this group is really too comfortable.]
[Haha, the other two groups are indeed a bit miserable.]
[The contrast with the other two groups is too strong.]
[Raymond, go show off in front of them.]
[Can't wait to see the other two groups' reactions when they find out how much this group earned and spent.]
[Raymond, it's your time to shine.]
Everyone was shouting for Raymond to step up.
In the car, Raymond said to Elizabeth, "Elizabeth, send me a screenshot of the hotel booking."
Elizabeth knew exactly what Raymond was up to. She didn't mind and played along. "Sure!" she said, sending him a screenshot of the booking.
Raymond quickly posted the photos in the group chat: first, the lunch bill, then Elizabeth winning first place in fencing and the 15,000 Veridiania currency prize, and finally, the hotel booking screenshot.
Raymond messaged: [We've only spent a little over 10,000 Veridiania currency so far. Looks like spending money takes skill too. Today, we need to help Elizabeth spend all 15,000 Veridiania currency.]
Gilbert saw the notification, checked the photos and Raymond's message, and was stunned. Raymond was really rubbing it in, but he liked it!
Gilbert messaged: [I'll try to keep up with your pace!]
Meanwhile, the other two groups were performing on the street with poor results. Brenda's group of four took turns singing, dancing, and playing instruments, but they only earned less than 300 Veridiania currency after over two hours. Ronald's group of three earned even less, not even 150 Veridiania currency.
Both groups were tired and resting when they heard the notification sound. Nancy picked up her phone but hadn't opened it yet. "I suddenly have a bad feeling," she said.
Ronald realized, "I think I know what it is."
Marlon, confused, asked, "What bad feeling?"
Nancy replied, "You'll know when you open the group chat."
Curious, Marlon opened the group chat and was dumbfounded. "Can he really show off like this?"
Nancy and Ronald checked the group chat and nodded. "There's nothing he won't show off about."
Marlon wanted to say, 'Raymond is too bad,' but as a new temporary guest, he didn't dare.
Nancy messaged: [Raymond, you're really such a showoff!]
Ronald: [Agreed. Still the same old peacock.]
Nancy: [Elizabeth is amazing. We didn't even earn 150 Veridiania currency, and you earned 15,000 Veridiania currency.]
Ronald: [The gap between people is really huge.]
Nancy: [I miss being in the same group as Elizabeth in the last episode.]
Ronald: [Same here!]
Marlon was stunned by the money Elizabeth earned and their spending in one day.
Marlon: [So envious, I'm crying.]
Raymond: [Too bad in this episode, you can only be envious and jealous!]
Nancy and Ronald really wanted to kick the smug Raymond out and beat him up.
On the other side, the three people, except Arnold, also had a bad feeling when they heard several notification sounds. But curiosity got the better of them, and they checked it out.
After reading it, they wanted to curse. Kevin couldn't help but tag Raymond in the group chat.
Kevin: [Raymond, stop being an attention seeker!]
Everyone else felt the same way.
