Chapter 3: First time meeting rich beauty

Luke observed the hint of admiration in Seraphina Shangguan's eyes, feeling rather flustered at the moment. Although his family had been wealthy, he had never even held a girl's hand before, let alone flirt with one. He couldn't even bring himself to look at her directly.

However, Seraphina seemed to be growing nervous as well, her cheeks flushed a deep red. She struggled to find her words, finally managing to whisper shyly into Luke's ear, "Luke... perhaps we could..."

Then, she embraced him tightly, causing beads of cold sweat to form on his forehead. This was all happening too fast!

Despite her professional attire as a receptionist, Seraphina's ethereal beauty was impossible to hide. Luke had previously experienced a life surrounded by wealthy individuals clad in cheap clothes, attempting to experience a taste of normalcy.

Luke introduced himself: "I'm Luke, a junior at a university in Melbourne."

Upon hearing this, Seraphina covered her cherry-like mouth with her delicate, jade-like hands and giggled.

"Luke, you're so young and already have a few hundred-pound notes. You must be quite successful."

At that moment, Luke checked his account balance on his phone. When Seraphina saw the balance exceeding $500,000, she was astonished.

"How can you be so young and have so much money? Are you some sort of hidden tycoon?"

In China, the wealthiest man, Jackie Ma, had a total asset of around 2 million dollars, with his main competitor, Tony Ma.

However, even their combined assets could not compare to Luke's wealth, as he was now on par with America's wealthiest individuals.

Luke decided it was time to take action. Though he lacked experience with women, he knew he had to seize the opportunity before someone else did, or else he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Meanwhile, the customers queuing to pay were stunned at the sight of Luke's hundred-pound notes. For ordinary people, seeing such an amount was a once-in-a-lifetime event.

Soon, Seraphina finished her shift and made a phone call. Within moments, a Bentley pulled up outside the restaurant, and Luke joined her in the luxurious car.

Playfully, Luke asked, "This Bentley looks extremely high-end. How much did it cost?"

"It was my 20th birthday present. It cost around $60," Seraphina affectionately replied.

$60? Was it priced similarly to the $50 Porsche he had seen earlier? And was it really only a two-digit price? That seemed rather outrageous.

Luke's lips curled into a faint smile as he realized that what used to be the cost of a simple lunch could now buy a car. Had he truly become wealthy overnight?

He then checked property listings online, finding numerous houses starting at $100. In his previous world, these houses in Shanghai would have cost a minimum of 10 million, a sum that would take ordinary people decades of work to afford. Even for his family, it was not a small amount.

He could now afford to purchase properties that previously cost $100,000 per square metre!

At that moment, Seraphina felt warm and removed her receptionist uniform, revealing her true appearance. Luke couldn't help but stare at her stunning beauty, completely captivated.
