Chapter 32 Big Name "What kind of amazing company is this!"

Chapter 32 Big Name "What kind of amazing company is this!"

Ye Hantao glanced at the watch that had been mentioned on the table, a question mark appearing on her mind.

Is this the high-quality replica that Sister Shiyue was talking about?

After thinking for a moment, Ye Hantao took a picture of the watch her uncle had given her for her birthday and used a shopping platform to scan the image.

My uncle said the watch cost less than 200 yuan, but it turned out to be a high-quality replica of a certain brand.

These days, everything can be copied.

A moment later, the search page popped up.

Queen Mother of the West: 3,410 yuan.

The watch is the correct color, white gold, but there are no small diamonds around the dial, nor are there any blue patterns inside.

Pull down the search page again.

Patek Philippe.

Ye Hantao had heard of this brand before, and her impression of it was that it was a very expensive brand, but she had no idea exactly how expensive it was.

I first glanced at the Patek Philippe images on the search page.

The color is correct, and the rhinestones and pattern are also correct! Now let's look at the price of the authentic product—

First secondhand store: 310,000.

The second secondhand store: 360,000.

The third secondhand store: 540,000?

Secondhand items are all more expensive than ever!

Without saying a word, Ye Hantao picked up a small notebook and wrote "watch" on it, while the bag was in front of the watch.

These are the things she plans to bring when she records the show next week.

When someone pointed out that she was wearing counterfeit goods in front of the entire live stream, Ye Hantao couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth. She was getting feedback from her persona again.

At this moment, Xiaohe tapped on their chat box.

[TaoTao, would you mind your personal account being exposed?]

Of course I don't mind! Ye Hantao had no time to analyze why Patek Philippe watches cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and quickly sent her personal account information to Xiao He.

She thought to herself with delight, "Now I can continue to indulge in vanity using my personal account!"

Before the thought had even settled, I suddenly remembered that I had posted a bunch of snippets of my life on Xiaohe's main account over the years.

There are paintings he usually draws, Shoushan ornaments, tea brewed by his father, and records of his team competitions with his brother, etc.

Ye Hantao quickly deleted the personal account information she had sent in the chat box.

[Xiaohe: Is there any inconvenient historical record in it?]

Xiaohe participated in the live broadcast of the program a few days ago and naturally witnessed some of Ye Hantao's lies and vanity.

However, she and Ye Hantao had already met before the show, and combined with Director Wan's private chat with Ye Hantao that morning, Xiaohe believed she had already figured out the truth.

Tao Tao must have been given an unlikable character by Director Wan!

But it doesn't matter. Even if she wasn't likable, she still discovered Tao Tao's wonderful qualities.

It would be even better if Tao Tao could bring her another POL dessert next week.

She ate it and went to buy more at the address the next day, only to be notified that it had been sold out three hours earlier.

I later discovered that POL desserts are quite famous among affordable desserts in Yuncheng.

It's said that the quality is comparable to high-end dessert shops, but the price is only a fraction of what they charge.

Ye Hantao: [I'll send it to you from a different account.]

Her current personal account was registered using her older brother's phone number when she was in junior high school.

She previously sent a private message to Shanfeng without any nonsense, indicating that she had registered a new account using her own phone number.

She wanted to give this new account to the production team and then maintain her greedy, vain, lying, jealous, and competitive personality on the new account.

So, Ye Hantao first sent the new account to Xiaohehua, and then picked out one of the photos she sent to Sister Shiyue to use as the opening post for this account.

Ye Hantao v: These are skincare products that Sister Shiyue gave me! They include La Mer, HR, and Lancôme. However, I still find the ones I usually use at home to be better. [Image.jpg]

After posting the message, Ye Hantao put down her phone and continued packing her luggage.

She knew exactly what the production team would say when they tagged her later.

Before signing the contract with the "Classmates Are Here" program team, she had read the details.

One of the rules is that on the day the ten guests return home, the production team will organize a group live stream with two tasks.

1. One guest, A, will be selected by drawing lots to visit the residence of guest B. The entire process will be broadcast live.

Second: One guest will be selected by drawing lots, and the program's cameramen will follow and film them at home for a whole day.

In the storyline, the character you draw for Mission 2 is Jia Yue.

The guest drawn in Task 1 is Director Chen's classmate visiting Director Chen's residence.

Now, both Director Chen's classmates and the control group have been changed, and she is unsure who she will be drawn from.

Although the control group did not draw any tasks, they frequently posted lying, vain, and ostentatious posts on their social media accounts.

Before the second episode aired, the control group had already accumulated a lot of criticism.

Ye Hantao decided to follow the example of the control group.

At 8 PM, the production team of the show "Classmates Are Here" released a new update.

"Classmates Are Here" v: Family members, thank you for waiting! Tonight at 10 PM, all the students of "Classmates Are Here" will hold an online class meeting via live stream!

See you there! @Jin Shiyue, He Qiang, @Yuan Kai, @Yuqiantang Tea House, @Wu Xia, @HT-Flash, @Liao Jiayue, @Ye Hantao, @Chen Xiaofeng, Cheng Zhao.

The way "Classmates Are Here" tagged this time is different from the previous times.

Chen Xiaofeng and his classmate were among those tagged, but Cheng Zhao and He Qiang did not provide their personal accounts.

However, Ye Hantao provided a personal account!

[Family members, let's follow each other, hahaha.]

[I've already followed her, so that Shanfeng won't have to wait until someday open a giveaway with a rule that you need to follow Ye Hantao for XX days.]

[Ahhh, I've been wanting to follow Ye Hantao's account for ages! I'm totally hooked on Flash and Wu Xia's fancams. Are there any other edits on Ye Hantao's account?]

I advise you to check out Ye Hantao's profile before getting excited.

[Damn? A new account? They're afraid to release their old accounts?]

[Is the plan to only provide a personal account after family members rent a Maybach, a move intended to flaunt wealth?]

[They're already bragging about it, saying that the La Mer and Black Bandage products don't offer the same user experience as their own, hahaha.]

Is it possible that they genuinely can afford a Maybach and better skincare products?

Wow, people actually get brainwashed?

After packing her suitcase, Ye Hantao put the calligraphy set she received on the show back on her desk.

Only then did he stand up, carrying two large boxes of skincare products and the lotus leaf ornaments he had bought. Just as he stepped out of the bedroom door, his eyes caught sight of the Shoushan ornaments on the table.

Ye Hantao stepped back and unfolded the glass lotus leaf in her palm.

"These two glass ornaments..." Ye Hantao had only been comparing them on a whim, but she didn't expect that the differences would be so obvious when they were placed side by side.

The glass used to make Shoushan (a type of ancient Chinese stone sculpture) appears even more vibrant green under the light.

It doesn't stand out when viewed alone, but when compared to other green lotus leaves, its luster immediately becomes apparent.

Why don't we bring it along when we meet Sister Shiyue?

Ye Hantao had this idea for only a second before shaking her head. Forget it, free appraisal, I can't take too much advantage.

In the living room, the light scent of sandalwood filled the air.

Ye Hantao tilted her head back and took a deep breath; even the fragrance inside the Bentley smelled wonderful.

The family members were all in the living room.

My older brother is looking at something on his tablet, while my mother has just put down her phone.

Dad came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of sliced ​​mangoes and watermelon. "Tao Tao, come and eat some fruit."

"Thank you, Dad. You've worked so hard!"

After Ye Hantao finished speaking sweetly, she walked over and said, "Mom, these are lotus leaves I bought at the antique market. Consider them a small gift I brought back for you."

Zhou Ti smiled and forked a piece of mango to feed Tao Tao, saying, "Tao Tao still misses her mother."

Ye Weizheng feigned displeasure, "Don't I have a gift?"

"Dad, you like raising fish?" Ye Hantao promised with a smile, "Next time I see pretty little fish while filming a show, I'll buy them for you."

Ye Weizheng threw a smug look at Zhou Mingsheng.

Looking again, Tao Tao had already linked arms with Zhou Mingsheng.

The main principle is to be fair and impartial.

Ye Hantao's almond-shaped eyes curved into a smile. "Brother, I've already made a promise with Ang'ang. When you're free sometime, he'll lead us to wipe out the canyon!"

Zhou Mingsheng froze for a moment, a faint frown appearing between his handsome brows. Just as he was about to refuse, his gaze fell upon Tao Tao's expectant expression.

“…Okay,” he said.

He has never had a bottom line when it comes to Tao Tao.

Zhou Mingsheng appeared calm, but in reality, he had already begun a brainstorming session.

He needs to take some time these next couple of days to play some other less popular heroes.

On the day he teams up to play games, he will try his best not to turn on his microphone.

Zhou Ti then said to Ye Weizheng, "Go and bring over what I prepared."

Soon, the coffee table was filled with bottles and jars.

Ye Hantao became increasingly surprised as she rummaged through the brands, "Lamer, HR, Sisley, Chanel, Lancôme, Aurelia..."

Moreover, there is more than one bottle of each brand.

From facial cleanser, essence water, serum to eye cream, lip cream and hand cream, it covers everything.

"Dad! Didn't we agree that I would buy it myself when I earned money?" Ye Hantao felt sorry for the extra money her family spent and didn't want them to feel pressured because of the vain image she had created. "Why did you all buy it? And so much of it."

Ye Weizheng chuckled and ruffled his daughter's hair. "Guess how much all of this costs in total?"

Ye Hantao pouted, "I checked their prices before. This La Mer face cream, for example, has an official price of over three thousand."

"Then our family has made a fortune!" Ye Weizheng explained under Ye Hantao's puzzled gaze, "These are all benefits from your mother's company."

Welfare?

Ye Hantao was taken aback.

"Mom?" She looked at Zhou Ti as if to confirm.

Zhou Ti smiled and said, "The boss just landed a big project and is in a good mood, so he's giving out bonuses to the whole company."

Ye Hantao: "?!!"

From childhood to adulthood, Ye Hantao has received prizes from her mother's company more than once.

Such as free family trips, three-day Disney tours, concert tickets, and so on.

They even have ten-year membership cards for hair salons.

She even set a goal for herself: to join a law firm with the same benefits as her mother's company!

It seems that the task ahead is arduous and the road is long.

"Mom, I also brought back some skincare products." Ye Hantao laid out two large boxes of skincare products and placed them next to her mother's pile of welfare items.

"These were all gifts from Sister Shiyue. She said they would be perfect for people over thirty."

Zhou Ti witnessed Jin Shiyue giving away skincare products in the live stream and happily accepted them.

"I'll thank her for my mom later."

“We still have some local specialties that your dad’s colleague brought. We’ll pack them up and sit down next to Ye Hantao later.” Zhou Ti put her arm around Ye Hantao and said, “We’ll send them over along with the gifts you want to give back.”

Have you decided what gift to give?

"I'm tentatively going with a pink silk scarf. I've noticed that Sister Shiyue often uses silk scarves as hairbands and bag straps."

Ye Hantao added, "I also wanted to give her the incense she usually uses at home. Sister Shiyue seems to really like the smell after using it these past few days."

During her school years, she and her friends exchanged birthday gifts every year.

At first, her mother would help with the decision-making, but later she let her make the decisions and rarely objected.

Today is an exception. Zhou Ti shook her head, "Don't bother sending our incense."

“Jin Shiyue uses fragrances frequently, so she must have a favorite scent,” Zhou Ti suggested. “Why don’t you buy her a perfume with her usual scent?”

Tao Tao brought incense to the program team before, and Jin Shiyue was prejudiced by the price of a few dozen yuan. She probably wouldn't suspect anything after smelling it for a few days.

If you really smell it every day, you'll find something's wrong sooner or later.

"Yes, I'll go online and check which brand of rose perfume to buy."

Is there a price requirement?

Prices? She's never bought perfume or scarves outside before, so she doesn't really know much about them.

Ye Hantao hesitated, thinking of Jin Shiyue's handbags which cost 800,000 yuan and the skincare products she had given her that totaled tens of thousands of yuan. "Mom, do you also have perfumes that cost tens of thousands of yuan?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Weizheng casually replied, "Of course, there are tens of thousands, and even hundreds of thousands or millions."

Ye Hantao abruptly turned to look at him, her voice rising, "Millions? Perfume?"

The house they live in now costs less than a million.

"Let's go with the Royal Dignity No. 1." Ye Wei was a little confused. He had bought it as a gift for Zhou Ti back then. He was about to ask Zhou Ti to confirm the price when he saw Zhou Ti staring at him expressionlessly.

Left eye: You idiot. Right eye: Did I notice you?

Ye Weizheng: "..."

Zhou Mingsheng rubbed his temples. "Dad, why don't you sit down and watch some TV?"

Ye Weizheng sat down obediently.

A palace drama is playing on the TV.

The scene depicts a eunuch who has made a mistake and is being punished by the imperial concubine by being forced to kneel.

"Dad, how did you know?" Ye Hantao asked him, leaning on the armrest of the chair.

Ye Weizheng's eyes darted around for two seconds, then he chuckled twice, "I accompany clients to look at houses every day, and I remember them from listening to their conversations."

Ye Hantao was convinced by this reason.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Ye Hantao jumped off the chair, "I'll go!"

"Don't go," Zhou Ti said, pulling her back to sit down. "Let your dad go."

Ye Hantao was puzzled. "Mom, do you know who's coming?"

"I bet it's one of the neighbors again. Your fans held a gold giveaway, and word got around the neighborhood. Some neighbors think they know you and can use your connections to get in."

Just as he finished speaking, Ye Weizheng's voice came from the entrance hall, "Tao Tao, it's your Aunt Wen."

Upon hearing that it was Aunt Wen, Zhou Ti stopped pulling Tao Tao and instead got up to walk with Tao Tao towards the door.

Aunt Wen lives downstairs from him.

A few years ago, Aunt Wen fainted from cerebral ischemia in the stairwell. It was Tao Tao who found her after school and called 120 in time.

Since no one was home at the time, Tao Tao accompanied Aunt Wen to the hospital in an ambulance.

From then on, Aunt Wen liked to send some of whatever she made at home to this place.

When Ye Hantao went over, she saw the plump Aunt Wen handing a glass jar to her father, which contained pickled cucumbers that looked like tender cucumbers.

"Oh my, Tao Tao has become even more beautiful in just a few days!" Aunt Wen said in a loud voice. "Tao Tao, don't worry, from now on, no one will bother you trying to use your connections to get in!"

Aunt Wen raised her voice, "When it comes to relationships, who in the neighborhood can compare to you and me! If I hear anyone else trying to bypass me and get in through your connections, I'll make sure they get a good word with in the dance troupe!"

Ye Hantao thanked her first, but did not want Aunt Wen to offend others because of her.

“Aunt Wen, didn’t I tell you before? As law students, upholding fairness and justice must start with small things.” Ye Hantao’s voice was no lower than Aunt Wen’s. “Even if you come to me, I won’t help.”

Aunt Wen gave her a reproachful look, "You, you."

Ye Hantao nudged Zhou Ti's wrist, seeking her opinion with her eyes. After Zhou Ti nodded, she asked Aunt Wen to wait a moment.

She jogged back and grabbed several bottles and jars of skincare products from the coffee table, and also picked up a bag of rice cakes she had bought from the tea plantation.

"Aunt Wen, these are some local specialty rice cakes I bought, and some perks from my mom's company. Please take them home." Ye Hantao lowered her voice this time, smiling broadly. "I'm just offering them to you out of kindness~"

Aunt Wen was about to refuse when Ye Hantao, who had anticipated this, interrupted her first, threatening fiercely, "If you don't accept it, I won't help you record and edit the video for your song and dance performance next month!"

Aunt Wen: "..."

With just one sentence, he seized her lifeline.

After closing the door, Aunt Wen looked at the skincare products and rice cakes in her arms and couldn't help but smile.

She initially gave things to Tao Tao out of gratitude for Tao Tao saving her life. Later, they got along well, and that's when she started giving Tao Tao things more frequently.

When Aunt Wen got home, she was still thinking that God probably saw that she was truly grateful, because her life had become smoother and smoother over the past few years.

Ye Hantao put the pickled cucumbers that Aunt Wen brought into the refrigerator. "Mom, I'm thinking of taking some to the program crew later, so I can share them with Sister Shiyue and the others."

Zhou Ti agreed, "Okay, we'll divide it into portions later."

Aunt Wen's pickled vegetable making skills are superb; even picky eaters like her and Tao Tao say they love them.

It was precisely because of her excellent craftsmanship that she was able to arrange for Aunt Wen to invest in a chain of pickle brands without arousing suspicion from others.

The family watched TV for a while, and Zhou Mingsheng glanced at the time on the wall clock.

"It's 9:30. My dad and I are here to fetch water."

Ye Hantao quickly finished a piece of mango. "I'll get the foot bath pack."

At 9:30, their family's group activity was a foot bath!

Four foot bath tubs were neatly arranged in front of the sofa chair. Ye Hantao rolled up her trouser legs.

As the warm water washed over her calves, she comfortably squinted her eyes.

After enjoying the quiet moment for a minute or two, Ye Hantao opened her eyes, and the solid wood furniture came into view.

She lowered her head and carefully examined the furniture she had used for over ten years.

Compared to the rosewood furniture in the villa, its color is darker and the grain is wider and sparser.

That yellow sandalwood probably looks like this?

Ye Hantao: "What kind of wood are our furniture made of?"

Zhou Mingsheng looked at Zhou Ti, Zhou Ti looked at Ye Weizheng, and Ye Weizheng looked at—

He couldn't stand anyone looking at him. He cleared his throat and said, "It's just ordinary wood on the market, worthless, and the color is too dark."

Ye Hantao nodded.

The family soaked their feet and chatted occasionally.

The TV series on the HDTV had just finished airing one episode.

Ye Hantao glanced at the time; it would be 10 o'clock in five minutes.

It's almost time for the "Classmates Are Here" live-streamed class meeting.

Ye Hantao wiped her feet, sat cross-legged, and placed the notebook on her knees.

This was a graduation gift her older brother gave her during the summer vacation before her college entrance exams.

It's not exactly lightweight, but you'll need it to power various software applications.

Zhou Mingsheng handed her the Bluetooth earphones from the coffee table.

"Shall I go back inside and join the live stream? You guys still need to watch TV."

"We already agreed that you could do a live stream in the living room." Zhou Ti turned off the TV. "Go back to your room, we want to watch the live stream on the projector too."

Ye Hantao smiled, logged into Qingning TV on her computer, and waited for an invitation to connect via video call.

A moment later, a pop-up window appeared inviting me to join the live chat.

Ye Hantao clicked "Accept" and granted Qingning TV permission to access her camera and microphone.

The scene changed, and we were now in the initiator's live stream room.

Before she could even see if anyone else had arrived, the first thing she did was turn off the live chat.

Ye Hantao didn't mind seeing the netizens' sarcastic remarks, but she didn't want her family to see the messy barrage of comments.

...She wasn't home the other day, so her parents and older brother probably saw quite a bit of her.

Ye Hantao puffed out her cheeks.

Director Wan laughed heartily, "Everyone's here! Let's give them a round of applause!"

Ye Hantao snapped out of her daze and clapped along in response.

Su Yi'ang clapped the loudest, "Hahahaha, our big boss isn't coming to the base today."

Hearing these loud words through the laptop, Zhou Ti and Ye Weizheng both looked at their eldest son.

Zhou Mingsheng remained indifferent, as if he didn't recognize the person speaking at all.

Yuan Kai appeared in the camera holding a four or five-year-old girl, saying, "Ruoruo, say hello to your older brothers and sisters."

"Hello, brothers and sisters." Ruoruo's cheeks were flushed, and she didn't dare to look directly at the camera. After saying hello, she wanted to jump down from Yuan Kai's arms.

Yuan Kai released his hand and said helplessly, "Ruoruo is just too shy."

【Ahhhhhh, my darling Ruoruo, give me a kiss!】

Yuan Kai really dotes on his daughter; he just did Ruoruo's hair when he got home.

Good evening~

Liao Jiayue greeted everyone, her face full of worry. "My dad watched the live stream and said that I'm a disgrace to the family's tea industry because I can't distinguish between many teas. He told me to drink tea cup after cup in the tea room."

Ye Hantao immediately noticed the shelf behind Liao Jiayue, where canisters of tea were stored.

[This is the true confidence of someone who's rich! They say they have a tea room, and they actually do.]

Unlike some people who have to register a new account just to avoid being exposed when tagged in a post.

[The video background was probably chosen a long time ago—a big white wall, hahaha.]

[Ye Hantao, get up and take pictures of your furniture! I want to see your rosewood furniture (doge.jpg)]

Ye Hantao couldn't see the comments on the screen, but instead asked with concern, "It's already ten o'clock, can you sleep while drinking tea?"

Liao Jiayue: "..."

Is drinking tea the main point?! The main point is that her family actually has a tea room!

"Miss, this is Junshan Silver Needle tea." A voice-over rang out, and the audience watched as a hand wearing white gloves placed a cup of tea in front of Liao Jiayue.

Just as fans were about to praise the style, passersby couldn't hold back any longer.

[That's a bit pretentious.]

Is this implying that you have a maid?

[Are some people really that sensitive-skinned? Even Yueyue's daily life can make you break down?]

[You're all acting like dogs, spewing nonsense. Has Liao Jiayue ever given you a single penny of her earnings?]

Liao Jiayue also noticed some unfriendly comments on the screen. Fearing that it might go too far, she smiled and said, "Tao Tao is right. Drinking tea too late might make it hard to sleep. I'll scold my dad tomorrow morning."

After speaking, Liao Jiayue gestured for the maid outside the screen to leave first.

The maid breathed a sigh of relief and immediately took off her white gloves as soon as she stepped out of the tea room.

"Tao Tao, I just found some unopened wintersweet and black bandages at home. I'll bring them to you in the next episode."

"No need."

Liao Jiayue disagreed, "I know Shi Yue gave it to you, but I also promised to give it to you."

"Even if you give it to me, I won't be able to use it all."

Ye Hantao bent down and picked up her mother's pile of benefits. "My mom's company gave out so many perks! La Mer, Black Bandage, Sisley, Chanel, Lancôme, everything!"

The entire live stream audience watched as Ye Hantao picked up one item from the box and introduced it to the audience.

They're all brand-name items, still unopened.

[Disease progression: 86%]

Ye Hantao understood immediately; this was vanity and a desire to keep up with the Joneses!

【？？？？】

What an amazing company!!!!

We're all just animals, why are we treated differently?!
