The price, of course, meant nothing to Lucy Wood, but for a recent university graduate without a job…
Felicia Frost looked at Ellen Young with some surprise.
She pointed to the cellphone and asked, “Ellen, did you buy this?”
Ellen had also seen the cellphone.
Though she didn’t plan to reveal her identity, she saw no need to go out of her way to hide anything either.
This cellphone was certainly not ordinary, as the company developed it and always sent her the first model of the new edition.
Now that Felicia was asking her, it was clear she recognized the brand of the cellphone.
With a glance, she simply said, “It was a gift.”
Felicia paused for a moment.
An item worth twenty thousand, and someone had given it to Ellen so easily?
But looking at Ellen’s presence, she indeed seemed like someone who could be pursued by the rich—just that…
She felt something was off.
Upon seeing the phone, Lucy Wood immediately let out a shriek, “Ah, isn’t that the Lydia limited edition from Wanton? I tried to grab one myself but couldn’t—those rich people are just too quick.”
As she moved to take it, Ellen suddenly said, “It’s my stuff, don’t touch.”
Lucy Wood: “…”
She froze, realizing that it was Ellen’s cellphone, and said somewhat embarrassingly, “I…I was just looking.”
A single cellphone wasn’t worth getting so excited over; she simply longed for this particular model.
The price of the cellphone wasn’t actually that high; it was just the scarcity that made it so.
There were only 1,000 units available worldwide, and after being bought, some would dare to sell them for several times the original price, which wasn’t really worthwhile.
The regular version was just a few thousand.
Lucy then also realized and said, “Someone gave it to you as a gift?”
Ellen nodded.
She found it odd but couldn’t quite pinpoint what was strange. To her, giving away items worth tens of thousands was commonplace.
To her, nothing was surprising about such gifts being given to Ellen.
Felicia noticed that Lucy didn’t seem to find anything wrong with it.
But she didn’t feel it was appropriate to comment, considering this was Lucy’s sister.
Lucy didn’t dwell on the topic either. After Ellen picked up her cellphone and left, Felicia spoke, “What’s the financial situation of your sister? She said the cellphone was a gift, and she accepted an item worth twenty thousand without blinking an eye?”
Lucy turned towards Felicia, “What’s wrong? Twenty thousand isn’t expensive, and I’ve bought her bracelets that cost forty-nine thousand.”
“It’s because you are her sister, but haven’t you ever thought she’s just a college student living here? Accepting gifts worth twenty thousand, could it be from a boyfriend?”
Lucy thought for a moment and frowned.
“Perhaps it’s from a very good friend, after all, we’ve just arrived, and we don’t understand everything. Better not to think too much about it,” she said.
Lucy made sense, yet Felicia still felt something was off.
Unlike Lucy, who was born into a wealthy family, Felicia wasn’t familiar with such matters.
But since it didn’t bother Lucy, Felicia didn’t feel it was her place to say much either.

Soon, the program crew also came in with their cameras. They would set fixed camera positions in the house. Nowadays, cameras have automatic adjustment functions that follow the subject, so there was no need for photographers inside the house; one photographer would suffice when going out.
Since it was a live broadcast, the only requirement was to ensure that the subjects stayed in the frame.
Of course, some private matters couldn’t be broadcasted, so Ellen only allowed cameras to be installed in the living room; the bedroom and other rooms where she kept her belongings were off-limits for cameras.
