 The Zi family checked into a presidential suite when they arrived at the hotel.

After dinner, Zi Xu was worried that Lisa might secretly go out to have fun if she got bored, so he said, "Learn proper etiquette from Lianlian. Don't make any mistakes at the He residence."

Lisa could not possibly learn etiquette from Zi Lian. Instead, she said, "I want to surf the internet. I won't go out."

Zi Xu frowned and wanted to scold her.

Li Peirong hurriedly said, "Stop putting so much pressure on her. I don't think it's a big deal for her to use the internet as long as she stays put."

Zi Xu recalled all the trouble Lisa used to make in City S and said nothing.

Lisa headed back to her room.

Since there was a computer in the room, Lisa checked how to get to Metropolis University.

There were still three days to go until it was Metropolis University's independent enrollment exam. Zi Xu had told his assistant to freeze her bank account and so she still did not have access to it.

If she wanted to go out, she certainly needed money.

Lisa leaned her chin against her hand as she muttered, "It seems I need to make some money."

Someone knocked on the door.

Li Peirong entered through the doorway with a glass of warm milk in her hand.

"I brought you a glass of warm milk."

Li Peirong walked up behind Lisa and placed the glass beside her. She subtly looked at the computer screen.

She smiled in relief because she only saw a map of the capital on the screen. "After we have visited the He family, I can take you around the capital for a couple of days."

Lisa turned her head sideways and glanced at her without saying a word. She veered her eyes away from Li Peirong and continued using the computer, but this time, she looked at tips on being a high society lady.

Li Peirong happily said, "You are finally all grown up. Take all the time you need. I will leave you to it."

Lisa calmly acknowledged her.

Li Peirong frowned when she noticed Lisa was suddenly being distant from her. She turned to leave the room and closed the door behind her, before her face turned dark.

After Li Peirong had closed the door, Lisa turned to glance at it with a smile on her face.

Not before long, someone knocked on the door once more.

Lisa went over to open the door and saw Zi Lian standing outside with an expression of concern.

"Lili, what are you doing all by yourself in the room? Are you playing video games again?"

Lisa leaned her back against the door frame as she crossed her arms and rhetorically asked, "Yes?"

"I'm worried you might get bored, so I came over to hang out with you."

Lisa glanced at her before she turned around and headed into the room.

Zi Lian instinctively followed behind her. The moment she entered the room, she checked out the computer screen.

She asked with a straight face, "Don't you like car racing? I heard that there are professional races in the capital. Also, there is one happening tomorrow. Shall we go and check it out?"

Lisa was about to sit down but turned to look at her when she heard the suggestion.

Zi Lian felt delighted at her reaction and continued, "I heard all the races in the capital are very professional and exciting. Also, you can make bets... I know you have plenty of money but just think about it. Isn't it thrilling to bet on a racer that you like?"

Lisa was a thrill seeker and obsessed with car racing and always blindly burned through money because of it. She was often conned out of her money by the bad company she kept. All the youngsters in their family knew about this.

Zi Lian felt that the capital's elites probably enjoyed car racing. If she convinced Lisa to go and the elites of the capital saw Lisa losing a lot of money at the races, the He family might learn of Zi Yi's wastrel ways.

Lisa's eyes glinted when she saw Zi Lian's obvious delight and said in an unhappy tone, "Dad froze my account, so I have no money. What's the point of going to the races?"

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°

"I will lend you the money."

Zi Lian realized that she might have come off too enthusiastic, so she paused and said, "Money isn't important. All that matters is that you have a good time there."

Lisa instantly looked tempted by the offer but she did not agree to go.

Zi Lian looked at her face and continued to tempt her. "I heard that their races take place in the morning. We can just tell Uncle Xu and Aunt Peirong that we are going shopping. I am sure they will let us go."

After some time, Lisa finally said, "Fine."

She hurriedly chased Zi Lian away. "I'm going to bed."

Since Zi Lian and Lisa had little contact with each other, they were not close. Now that Zi Lian had gotten what she came for, she did not want to linger in the room any longer, so she said goodnight and left.

The moment she closed the door, Lisa checked online about the race happening tomorrow.

The race was organized by two men from powerful families. The bets were huge and consisted of a bar and club.

Other than the bankers, it was open to the public as well and many people had betted on it.

Lisa smiled when she saw this.

People were sending her money just when she needed it, so there was no reason for her to hold back.

The next day.

After breakfast, Zi Lian told Zi Xu and Li Peirong, "Uncle Xu, Aunt Peirong, I want to take Lili out shopping and do some facials together."

Zi Xu did not look receptive to the idea, but Li Peirong wanted Lisa to experience the temptations the capital had to offer and get into trouble, so she agreed, "Xu, why don't you let them go out and have some fun. You can't keep Yiyi holed up in the hotel the entire time, right? If she gets bored, you will end up worried."

Zi Xu recalled what his wife mentioned about his daughter acting abnormally when they went to bed last night. He was worried she was just keeping a low profile for now and would embarrass him when they went to the He family, so he told Lisa, "You can go out, but you can't make trouble. Also, come back before noon."

Lisa pursed her lips without saying a word, so everyone thought she was reluctant to come back so early.

Zi Xu looked angry. "If you don't promise me, then stay at the hotel."

Li Peirong hurriedly glanced at Lisa. "Just promise your father that you'll behave. We are in the capital and not in City S. There are many people that we can't afford to offend. After you are married to Young Master He, you can do anything you want."

Zi Xu's expression finally softened. "Your mother is right. If you marry Young Master He, you can do anything you like."

Lisa finally replied, "Okay."

Zi Xu was happy with her response. "Lianlian, look after her."

"Okay, Uncle Xu."

The moment they left the hotel together, Zi Lian smiled as she said, "Was my excuse good or what?"

Lisa glanced at her. "Aren't we going to the races? Let's go!"

Zi Lian quickly suppressed the smile emerging on her face when she saw how enthusiastic Lisa was. She whispered, "Hang on. We need to shake off the chauffeur first, or else Uncle Xu will find out and get angry."

Zi Lian had already planned how to get there. First, they would get the chauffeur to send them to the city square, where they would shake him off, before heading to the international race track at the capital.

The international race track was on the northern side of the capital and was the most advanced and challenging F1 track in the country.

By the time they made it there, countless cars had already pulled up outside the racetrack. Everyone looked like privileged people from wealthy families as they entered through the racetrack entrance.

Since Zi Lian had never experienced car racing before, she always felt that it was meant for privileged brats, but now she was awestruck. "I can't believe so many people turned up for the race."

Lisa glanced at her before she opened the cab door and got out.
