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

When Song Zhibai heard this, the smile on his face faded.

"Mom, I remember you told me that anyone who shows kindness to others for no reason is either a traitor or a thief," said Song Zhibai.

Mother Song shook her head gently: "Miss Xu is not that kind of person, her eyes are very clear."

Song Zhibai was stunned when he heard this.

Song's mother continued, "Did you lie to me? Didn't you sign an agency contract?"

Song Zhibai quickly shook his head: "Mom, the contract is written in black and white and cannot be forged, but I just feel uneasy..."

Mother Song shook her head and said, "Now that we are here, we should make the best of it. Miss Xu is not a bad person."

"You used to think that dad wasn't a bad person!" Song Zhibai blurted out.

A look of sadness suddenly appeared on Song's mother's face.

Song Zhibai quickly grabbed her hand: "Mom, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned him..."

Mother Song held her son's hand and said, "Don't be afraid to trust others just because I trusted you wrongly before. Miss Xu is really good. Don't let my failure hurt the people who really care about you."

Song Zhibai's heart trembled. He recalled that he had been deliberately avoiding Xu Youyou during this period of time, and was very defensive every time they met. Could it be that Xu Youyou was sad because of this?

Xu Youyou did not go back to the hotel directly in the special car, but urged the driver to drive through the streets of New York City.

There were two bodyguards sitting in the car with her. Both of them were muscular and looked like they were not to be trifled with.

After all, this country is famous for its freedom. There have been frequent shootings during the New Year. Xu Youyou wants to make money, but she cares more about her life.

"Ms. Xu, where are you going?" the driver asked in Mandarin with a strange accent.

Xu Youyou frowned slightly, but still did not reveal her proficiency in English. Instead, she responded in Mandarin: "Wandering around."

The driver frowned. His Chinese was not very good, and he had to work very hard to understand Xu Youyou's instructions every time. He even took the wrong road several times.

After driving through the city for nearly an hour, the car finally arrived at its destination.

Chinatown.

Xu Youyou didn't expect the system's instructions would be here.

The driver's face showed understanding. "Ms. Xu, you said you wanted to come here a long time ago. But I didn't expect you to know New York City so well. You could find it without navigation. You're like a walking map."

Xu Youyou had a stiff smile on her face. How would she know how to get to Chinatown? She was just following the system's instructions.

The driver stayed there waiting, and Xu Youyou took two bodyguards into Chinatown and walked along the long street to the end.

"Beautiful lady, it's time for dinner. You can come to my house for dinner. It's authentic Chinese food!"

The owner of a restaurant at the end of Chinatown's streets lit up when he saw them.

Xu Youyou glanced at the empty restaurant behind the other person and the visibly dirty dining environment. She was reluctant to go in.

However, the system's instructions pointed directly to this shabby restaurant.

She walked in with two bodyguards, completely unaware of what they were thinking in their hearts. After all, Xu Youyou didn't even care about adjusting to the jet lag after getting off the plane, and ran to this restaurant to eat, which made them wonder how delicious the food here must be, which made Xu Youyou rush to fly here.

The restaurant owner didn't expect Xu Youyou to actually come in. He continued to greet her in Mandarin with a strong dialect accent, "Beautiful girl, you've come to the right place. My family makes authentic Minnan cuisine that you can't get anywhere else in New York! Minnan students from all over New York City love to come to my house to eat!"

Xu Youyou looked around. This restaurant area could accommodate more than ten people, but during the peak dining hours, there were only three customers, just three of them. She was extremely skeptical of what the boss said.

"Boss, please give me one of your signature dishes." Xu Youyou said with a generous attitude.

Two bodyguards accompanied her on a trip abroad, and we couldn't let them go hungry.

The restaurant owner's eyes lit up surprisingly: "Don't worry, beautiful lady, I guarantee you won't forget it once you taste it!"

Xu Youyou nodded casually.

Although this restaurant is not particularly big, in addition to the owner, there is also a chef.

"Beauty, are you here to study or travel?" the boss asked with a smile.

Xu Youyou hesitated for a moment and said, "Travel."

The boss immediately became excited: "Since it's a tour, have you hired a tour guide? Let me tell you, there's a popular saying in overseas Chinese circles: when fellow countrymen meet, they'll rip you off without negotiation. You must keep your eyes open and don't get ripped off by their own people!"

When Xu Youyou heard this, she couldn't help but suspect that the other party was introducing himself.

Sure enough, the boss continued, "I've been in the United States for more than ten years. I'm like a local tyrant. If you want to find a tour guide, I can introduce you to a very good one!"

Xu Youyou didn't want him to continue this topic, so she smiled awkwardly and said something nonsense: "The tour guide has been hired. It's my cousin who is studying in the United States."

Upon hearing this, the boss's face was filled with regret. He then asked, "Have you booked a place to stay? I know a fellow villager who owns a hotel..."

Xu Youyou immediately said, "I live in Anman."

The boss opened his mouth slightly. The cheapest room type in the Aman Hotel costs two thousand US dollars a night. Only then did he look at Xu Youyou seriously. The more he looked, the more he felt that Xu Youyou was glowing with gold all over. He glanced at the menu that had just been assigned to the kitchen and silently added a few dishes to it.

"Ms. Xu, did you just get off the plane?" the boss asked dryly.

Xu Youyou nodded.

The boss was suddenly confused. He and the two bodyguards had the same doubts. There were so many luxury hotels and high-end Western restaurants in New York. Why did Xu Youyou come here?

Xu Youyou deliberately looked confused. "I had an appointment to meet someone in Chinatown, but I waited for a long time and no one showed up. I was just wandering around, and you were the only one who invited me in. I figured since we're from the same hometown, I might as well come in and sit down with you."

When the boss heard this, he couldn't help but show some joy on his face. At this time, he had a basic judgment of Xu Youyou in his mind: young, rich, and too embarrassed to show off.

If he doesn't kill this kind of person, he will really slap himself in the face when he thinks about it in the middle of the night!

It’s a pity that the boss couldn’t think of any reason to trick Xu Youyou.

Xu Youyou quietly watched the boss's expression changing constantly. She felt that the time was almost right, and her eyes fell on the altar in the corner of the restaurant.

"Is that statue Lord Guan Gong?" Xu Youyou asked.

The boss didn't think much about it and nodded.

Xu Youyou added, "I don't know why, but seeing the porcelain statue of Guan Gong in a foreign country always makes me feel particularly close to him, and my heart feels at peace."

The boss suddenly perked up: "This Guan Gong statue was passed down to me by my grandfather. It traveled across the ocean from my hometown to here. It's very effective!"
