River City
South River International Residence.
Pearl walked through the entrance with 911 dialed on her phone.
She did not realize that there was a taxi following close behind.
Excluding the driver, there was also a young man and woman in the taxi.
“Where is this place, Sir?” The young man asked.
“This is River City’s wealthy residential area, son. This is as far as I can go. That’ll be fifty bucks,” The driver said.
“So expensive?” The young man asked.
“Time is money! I waited for a long time.”
“Alright, then! Thank you, Sir.”
The two paid and got out of the car.
They made their way to the entrance of South River International Residence.
They were about to take a closer look when the security guard stopped them.
“Hey! What are you two doing here? Move along, this isn’t a place you people can enter.”
“Can I ask who that red Porsche that just drove in belongs to?” The young man asked.
“Who? A tenant, of course! Who else can it be? Yours? Go away!”
“It must be pretty expensive living here, right?”
“Are you from the rural villages, sonny? Let me put it this way, the houses here cost at least two hundred thousand per square meter, and each house is at least fifty million each. You tell me whether it’s expensive here or not!”
“What? So expensive? What if someone’s just renting a house here, then?”
“Is something wrong with you? Why would anyone spend fifty million on a house and lease it to someone else? And if someone has the money to live here, you think they’d need to lease a house out for rent? Just get lost already!”
“Alright, alright! I’ll get going now. Thank you!”
The young man left with the young woman in tow.
The two found a cheap motel and decided to settle there for the moment.
Only after entering the room did the woman speak. “Sam, can’t we just look for your sister directly?”
The young man was Sam Warner, Pearl’s younger brother, and the young woman was Minnie, his girlfriend.
However, Minnie’s family was against this relationship because Sam’s family were farmers while they lived in town.
Thus, Sam and Minnie decided to secretly come and seek Pearl’s help. Only for Sam to realize that Pearl had lied to their parents.
Pearl said that it was difficult making money in the city and that she had to pay rent and afford her living expenses. Yet, Sam saw Pearl drive a luxury car and live in an expensive house.
“No! We’ll go look for her once Mom and Dad are here. I’ve always been terrified of Pearl, and only Mom and Dad can keep her in line. I’ll go call my mom first.” Sam pulled out his phone and made the call.
“Where did you go, brat? Come back here right now!” A middle-aged woman’s voice rang out from the speakers.
“Mom, I’m already at River City now! I’m not going back!” The young man said.
“You brat! You ran off with someone’s daughter, now her family has come to ask us where she is! Get back here right now!”
“Mom, listen to me! I found Pearl, she’s rich now! She’s driving a car worth millions of dollars and living in a house worth at least fifty million! Come over and look for yourself!”
“You’ve gone mad!”
“It’s real, Mom! I’m not lying! I found where Pearl works yesterday, and I saw her drive a red sports car worth millions after she got off work.”
“And then?” Asked his mom over the phone.
“I didn’t follow her yesterday, but I called a taxi today to wait at the entrance. I saw her enter a residential area and I asked the security guard about it. He said that the housing there cost two hundred thousand per square meter, that’s enough to buy a whole house back home. Every house in that area costs at least fifty million.”
“Are you sure? You didn’t mistake her for someone else, did you?”
“Why would I lie to you? And that’s my sister, as if I wouldn’t recognize her.”
“Alright, I’ll come with your dad tomorrow morning. This stupid girl, how dare she send us only twenty thousand each month when she’s driving a sports car and living in an expensive house in the city!”
“Minnie, you should call your parents to come here tomorrow too!” Sam told Minnie after ending the call with his mom.
“For what? So they can drag me back? They’ve never agreed to our relationship to begin with.”
“Are you silly? Your parents don’t agree because you live in town while my family farms in the village; My family isn’t as wealthy as yours. But now that my sister made a lot of money, I’m sure your parents will agree to us being together, and we won’t have to date in secret anymore!”
Minnie thought about it and agreed with Sam. Thus, she called her parents.
Her mother immediately started scolding the two of them, but she did promise to come to River City the next day.
Sam laid in bed with Minnie in his arms as he said, “Minnie, let’s never go back. We can stay here in River City, I’ll have my sister buy me a nice car and house, then we can drive it and enjoy the view every day!”
“But will your sister buy them for you?” Minnie did not believe him.
“Not if I ask, but she will if my parents ask her to. That’s why I called them over! Don’t worry, my parents have always been on my side, they leave the best things to me because I’m the only son. As far as they’re concerned, my sister only exists to serve me.”
“Okay! I want a car like your sister’s too! It’s so pretty! It’s a dream to have something like this!”
“Alright! Then we’ll get you one too! We can have one each!”
The two fell asleep as they fantasized about a great life together.
