A wealthy family recognizes my relatives? But I am already a billionaire.

Chapter 237: Uncertain Business Hours

Xu Youyou didn't take this matter to heart.

Just as she moved into Lu Jingyao's house, he called her via video.

"Did the journey go smoothly? Did the servants in the house clean well? Do the dishes suit your taste?" Lu Jingyao asked questions one after another.

Xu Youyou answered each question in turn and raised her own doubts: "The journey was smooth, with only a few minor incidents, but nothing serious. The house is very clean, and I haven't tasted the chef's cooking yet. By the way, it seems to be early morning in China now. Are you staying up late?"

Lu Jingyao said helplessly: "There are a lot of things that have accumulated. I will go to bed after I finish dealing with this one on hand. What happened on the way?"

Xu Youyou told the story about Shen Wenxing.

Lu Jingyao on the other end of the video instantly became alert and said, "What a coincidence. Given their identities, it's not easy for them to go abroad..."

Having said that, Lu Jingyao stopped talking and said, "I'm glad you're all okay."

Xu Youyou had no idea that a certain jealous person had already planned to fly over overnight. She was looking at the French-style decorated house and said, "This house is so beautifully decorated. It feels like living in a home straight out of an oil painting."

Lu Jingyao's expression immediately softened, and he said, "As long as you like it, I'm glad. My mother originally hired a designer friend in France to help design and decorate this house. If you like her style, I can invite her to come to China and decorate the house according to your preferences."

Xu Youyou shook her head. "That's not necessary. Aside from a few properties I don't plan to renovate, I quite like the decor of the other properties I own in China."

Lu Jingyao didn't force it, and instead said, "When you go out there, be sure to bring enough bodyguards. Although it's a romantic city, there are many thieves and robbers."

Xu Youyou nodded. Seeing that he looked tired, Xu Youyou felt distressed and kept urging him to hang up the phone and go to rest.

Although Xu Youyou had already slept on the plane, she still slept for a few hours after landing to barely adjust to the jet lag.

In this house, Lu Jingyao has two sets of chefs, one is a standard French system and the other is a Chinese food system.

Xu Youyou had standard French food for her first meal. Although it tasted good, she felt that she would not be able to bear it if she had to eat it for several days in a row.

Seeing that the sun was shining brightly outside, Xu Youyou prepared to go out.

"Ms. Xu, I heard from Mr. Lu that you've never been to Paris. In that case, how about we go to the Champs-Élysées as our first stop in Paris?"

The person who spoke was the local tour guide for this trip to France. She looked to be about 25 or 26 years old, with delicate makeup and a French style. She looked like a beautiful woman in a magazine.

This person was arranged by Lu Jingyao. It is said that he had received relatives of the Lu family last time, and the relatives reported that this tour guide was very considerate in his treatment of others.

Lu Jingyao hired the person for a month just to make it easier for Xu Youyou to travel in France.

Xu Youyou waved her hand, her gaze fell on the air, which was the golden pointer of the system.

"I have other plans. I'll go to the Champs-Elysées when I have time later." Xu Youyou explained.

The young female tour guide in front of me, hearing this, still had an impeccable smile on her face and asked, "If you don't want to go to the Champs-Élysées, you can also try the Arc de Triomphe or the Louvre."

Xu Youyou waved her hand: "I told you, I have other plans."

The female tour guide smiled and said, "Ms. Xu, please trust my professional ability. Since Mr. Lu has entrusted you to me, I will make sure you feel at home and that you don't miss any of the beautiful scenery in Paris."

Even though Xu Youyou saw the other person smiling very properly, she still felt uncomfortable. It was obviously their first meeting, but she always felt that there seemed to be a kind of vague hostility from the other person.

"Did you know Lu Jingyao before?" Xu Youyou asked tentatively.

The young female tour guide raised her lips slightly and said, "Mr. Lu and I went to college together, and he took good care of me back then. Now I'm studying for a doctorate at Paris Sciences et Lettres. After he learned that I was working part-time as a tour guide, he often took care of my business."

Xu Youyou raised an eyebrow: "Then you two really have a close relationship."

The female tour guide smiled slightly.

"What a pity." Xu Youyou said.

The female tour guide looked puzzled.

Xu Youyou said expressionlessly, "You're fired."

The female tour guide frowned slightly. "Ms. Xu, I'm employed by Mr. Lu. You have no right to fire me. Please trust my professionalism and don't take your anger out on me because of some inexplicable suspicions. Aren't you afraid of angering Mr. Lu by doing this?"

Xu Youyou didn't even bother to explain the reason to her, and just called the bodyguard to go out.

Only the weak need to explain repeatedly. She is not the poor little girl in the Gu family in her previous life. She is also a super rich person now. Why should she make herself suffer?

If Lu Jingyao had a conflict with her over such a small matter, she could fire Lu Jingyao as well.

Xu Youyou still didn't give the driver a specific destination and just sat in the car giving directions.

The driver was very obedient. Not only did he slow down, he also did not question Xu Youyou's instructions at all. He was even afraid that if he did something wrong, it would affect the amount of the tip Xu Youyou would give him.

The car drove in Paris for about an hour and a half and stopped on a cluttered street.

"Vintate Market, Miss Xu, so this is where you want to come." The driver exclaimed.

Xu Youyou had no idea what this place was for, and was even confused when she saw that most of the shops on the roadside were closed.

"Why don't you open the door?" Xu Youyou asked.

The driver explained: "It's like this here. Many stores are closed on weekdays, but if you come on weekends, almost all the stores are open."

Xu Youyou glanced at Xu Fang.

The tacit understanding between the two of them was far beyond anyone else's reach. After a moment's thought, Xu Fang asked curiously, "What is this place used for?"

"It's the second-hand market! This should be the largest second-hand market in France. It's so huge that you can walk around until your legs are weak." said the driver.

Xu Youyou thought about the time limit given by the system, and recalled the many setbacks she encountered during her last bargain-hunting mission. She vaguely felt that this time, the task of finding a bargain would not be particularly smooth either.

After she got off the car, she just followed the system and walked. Even though the things in several shops on the roadside attracted her, she did not stop, but followed the arrow eagerly to her destination.

As soon as she saw the destination, Xu Youyou couldn't help but frown. The door of the shop was closed, but the owner had thoughtfully hung a small sign above it.

The accompanying French translator hurriedly explained, "Ms. Xu, the sign says that we are in a bad mood and the business hours are uncertain."

Xu Youyou: ...
