Last weekend.

Mary and Tiffany, two old friends, came to visit together.

The dormitory was so simple that even if Ben Campbell wanted to, Owen would not choose to entertain the two old friends here, and because of his strong skill1, Owen can be said to rarely stay in the dormitory.

The Hampton Inn Chicago.

"Mr. Li, welcome again. ”

The front desk lady looked up and saw that it was an old acquaintance, so she hurriedly showed a sweet smile and greeted warmly, and swept over Mary and Tiffany around Owen, and secretly praised in her heart: "It's really a new person every day......"

"Emily, is room 999 empty?"

Owen was already familiar with the front desk lady, and he didn't mean to be polite.

"Of course. ”

The front desk lady didn't need to check, and replied directly: "Room 999 has been empty for you, you are a VIP customer of our hotel." ”

In fact, the room was literally almost booked by Owen.

"Let's open for two days first. I'm going to go up and talk to the two teachers about my homework first, and then I'll settle the fee later, no problem, right?"

Owen took the key, and customary asked.

"Absolutely. ”

The front desk lady smiled: "I wish you three a happy stay!"

It wasn't until Mary and Tiffany half-pushed Owen and walked into the elevator quickly that the front desk lady rolled her eyes and muttered, "Phew, you're still talking about your homework, why are you in such a hurry, and you're still coming to the hotel to talk?"

Two nights and two days later.

"Emily, check out!"

The front desk lady raised her eyes, was startled, got up and asked with concern, "Mr. Li, are you okay?"

"It's fine. ”

Owen's face was pale, he stretched out his hand to support his waist, beat it gently, and waved his hand when he heard the words: "My former dance teacher recently made a new dance, which is very difficult, and he has been busy with his homework recently, and the dance is all decent, and he has not done too much innovation, and he is just a little uncomfortable for a while."

But I'm like that, the more difficult it is, the more I like the challenge, so I'm learning and practicing for the past two days, and I'm overworked, so it's good to take a day off. ”

"I see~"

The corners of the front desk lady's mouth twitched, and while taking Owen's card, she smiled reluctantly: "Mr. Li, you are really a persistent and studious art lover, hey!"

"What's wrong?"

Owen still gently slapped his back and asked without raising his head.

"Mr. Li, there is a problem with your credit card. ”

The front desk lady reverted to a professional smile: "Can't pay the room rate." ”

"Questions?"

Owen was stunned and surprised: "What's the problem?"

"There are many reasons for this. ”

The front desk lady smiled, "Maybe your credit card is frozen, or maybe the banking system is malfunctioning, or maybe your credit card has reached the limit." ”

"Uh......"

How shrewd Owen is, these three reasons, and the last reason is the real reason!

"Brushed up ......"

Owen frowned, the intelligence of the genius lv5-, and the blessing of the double sage aura, calculated an economic account, and understood everything almost instantly.

When he was in college, Owen earned in the following five ways.

1. Olympiad Regional Finals: $1,000 * 2 = $2,000.

2. Runner-up in the National Mathematics Olympiad: 3,000 US dollars.

3. Choir National Champion: $10,000.

4. When exiting the Eternal Spear, sign a confidentiality agreement, and the hush money given by the other party: 10,000 US dollars.

5. Part-time weeder in Wisteria Lane, because the weeding skills are particularly good, the top salary given by Mrs. Soris, a former Milan model who is not bad for money: 1,000 US dollars.

The total income is 26,000 US dollars, which is indeed a lot of money, plus Owen is on a full scholarship, and the Hampton Inn is not a luxury hotel, the cost of an ordinary room is only about 100 US dollars, but it takes more than three months, how can it not cost so much!

But Owen did spend a lot......

1. Road trip: about 600 US dollars.

2. Living expenses and miscellaneous expenses for one semester of college: 3,000 US dollars.

3. The cost of pursuing art at the Hampton Inn Hotel: 90 * 100 + 90 * 10 + 90 * 50 / 3 + 90 * 200 / 5 + 1000 * 3 = 18,000 US dollars (basic room charge + gratuity + additional item wear and tear fee every 3 difference 5 + compensation for damage to the room).

4. Camping: $2,000.

5. Car wash fee: 90*20/9=200 US dollars.

6. Love: $5,000.

A total of $28,800 was spent, and nearly $2,800 was overspent, so it's no wonder that credit cards were maxed out......

"I'm so stupid, I really shouldn't believe the ...... of the Russian twin sisters"

Owen grinned and whispered: "Sister Adele said that it is freezing rain in Antarctica, and polar bears have no home, so pitiful, sister Arena said that it is freezing rain in Antarctica, and pandas and giraffes are so pitiful, is my genius mind as high as lv5-is congested and stupid, this kind of lie is not even seen!"

The most important thing is that the reason for the love in the end is not this, but the pity and admiration for the experience of the two sisters!

According to the two sisters, their hometown was too cold, and their family was poor, so they did not have much clothes to wear, and they had always worn very thin, and often shivered from the cold.

Therefore, they are tired of everything in their hometown, and they came to the United States with great difficulty, not relying on others, they want the sisters to sell potted plants together, but they are not for themselves, but for public welfare!

They are willing to give everything and use the love funds raised from caring people to help more people like them!

This kind of noble sentiment, even a hard-hearted person like Owen, looking at the thin, lacking clothes on their bodies that they need to be deliberately looking for to see, is enthusiastic for a while, and can't distinguish the lowest logical error, and stupidly stuffed $5,000 into the sisters' love donation box.

When the blood passed, Owen Sage Lee, who had come to his senses, regretted that his thighs were swollen, not that he cared about the money, but that he was ashamed that he was charged an IQ tax!

"MMP! Even if you shout a hundred Daddy in unison, I won't be fooled again!!"

Owen made a secret decision in his heart, and suddenly smelled a special smell between his snorts, which made him can't help but take a deep breath: "Huh! What kind of fragrance?

"Mr. Li?"

The front desk lady couldn't help but remind Owen when she saw Owen stunned there.

"Huh. ”

Owen came back to his senses and smiled wryly, "Wait!"

"Okay. ”

The front desk lady nodded politely: "Do you need me to apply for a waiver for you?"

For VIP customers like Owen, who take the Hamptons as their home, it is so normal to be free of one or two orders!

"Thank you!"

Owen hurriedly thanked him.

"What happened just now?"

Outside the hotel, Mary asked with concern, "Why is it delayed for so long?"

"Nothing. ”

Owen smiled awkwardly, he didn't want to continue the topic, but thinking of the credit card that had been maxed out, he had to be cheeky and said, "Teacher Mai Jia, can you lend me $5,000 first?" I will pay you back as soon as possible." ”

"Absolutely. ”

Mary was stunned, and then agreed without hesitation, without the embarrassment of ordinary people talking about money and hurting feelings, and a sweet smile appeared on her white and red face.
