What’s it like to be a rich second generation heir? I didn’t know before, but now I do. Starting with a billion in cash, and getting double back for everything I spend, my only worry is that my money just keeps increasing. The goddess who was once out of my reach, now a flight attendant actively slips her number into my hand. The supercar I could only look at online before? Now the keys to a McLaren P1 are in my pocket. They say money can’t buy happiness? Bullshit. That’s just because they don’t have enough of it. The urgent ringing of my alarm clock woke me from a deep sleep. I opened my eyes and surveyed the hundred plus square meter bedroom, the high-end Middle Eastern carpet, the luxury furniture whose names I didn’t know everything was a reminder that this was not a dream. The phone screen showed the date August 15, 2018. I opened the ICBC bank app and in the total balance section, a figure of over 51 million lay there impressively. It seemed I had truly been reborn. Just the day before yesterday, I was a failure in my 30s, worrying about an 188,000 yuan betrothal gift who ultimately died from alcohol poisoning. When I woke up, I was back in the summer break of my sophomore year of college. The world was still the same world history, culture, songs, and novels were all identical, completely cutting off my path to getting rich through plagiarism. The only thing different was my family. My father, a DD driver in my past life, had become the chairman of a trillion-dollar heavy industry group. My mother, who ran a small clothing store, had become a hundred billion dollar pharmaceutical tycoon. I, Wang Chen, had gone from an ordinary person struggling at the bottom of society to the top rich second generation heir in the country in a single step. I had originally thought about using my future knowledge to start a business and become a self-made billionaire, but it looked like I was forced to just slack off now. Work hard? Not a chance. Being a rich heir is just too damn good. Just as I was lamenting the unpredictability of life and preparing to completely lie flat and enjoy this worry-free existence, a cold, mechanical voice sounded in my mind. Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully crossing over to a parallel world and binding to the perfect life entry system. Ding! This system is dedicated to helping the host enjoy a perfect life. Please strive to enjoy life, host. Here it comes, my golden finger. A light blue screen appeared before my eyes, displaying my personal data charisma 89, physique 85. Endurance 95 quite impressive. It turned out my absurd family background after rebirth was all the system’s doing. Ding! The novice reward has been loaded and is being sent. Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining 1 billion Chinese yuan. Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining the entry double cashback all of the host’s reasonable expenses will be refunded twofold. Spending 10,000 Chinese yuan will grant one system point which can be used for the system’s roulette lottery. As soon as the voice fell, my phone vibrated and a bank text message popped up. Your account has received a deposit of 1 billion yuan. Your new balance is 1 billion 51 million 255 thousand yuan nut. 1 billion. In cash. Even though I had lived two lives, looking at this long string of numbers still made me a little dizzy. With this money, even without my current family background, I could surpass 99 % of the people in this world. After freshening up, I went down to the first floor of the villa. The butler, Uncle Li, had already prepared black coffee. I took a sip, walked out of the villa, and started my morning run in the lakeside garden that covered more than 3,000 square meters. I needed to clear my thoughts on how to spend this 1 billion, or rather, how to enjoy my perfect new life. The answer was simple follow my heart, listen to my most primal desires. With money, of course, I should spend it. Returning to the dining room, my mother, Xia Huilan, was unusually home for breakfast. She was dressed in a sharp lady’s suit, her demeanor elegant. Why are you up so early for a run today? She pushed a bowl of noodles in front of me. You’ve been home all summer break. When are you going to bring a girlfriend home? School is starting soon, don’t you want to go out and have some fun? Mom, I was thinking of going to Shanghai recently. I was just wondering how to bring it up. And my mother’s words were exactly what I wanted. Alright. She nodded and operated her phone for a bit. I’ve transferred 500,000 to you as spending money. If it’s not enough, just ask me for more. 500,000 was a small sum for me now, but I didn’t refuse. After watching my mother leave in a custom bulletproof Rolls Royce, I also turned and walked out of the villa. First stop, Chengdu IFS shopping center, a famous money pit. I walked straight into the Louis Vuitton flagship store, and a beautiful sales associate immediately came to greet me. I couldn’t be bothered to listen to her introductions. Any clothes, pants, or shoes that caught my eye, I took them directly. At checkout, the sales associate smiled and said, Sir, the total is 430,000. I took out my bank card and paid without batting an eye. Ding! Detected host has spent 430,000, receiving a double cashback of 860 ,000, which has been transferred to the host’s bank card. Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining 43 system points. A text message immediately came through on my phone. My account balance had increased instead of decreasing. It really works. The sales associate, whose name was Puff, added my WeChat, using the excuse of adding VIP customer information. I didn’t refuse. After getting a full new outfit, I walked into the Patek Philippe store. Show me the best watch you have in the store. The sales associate put a Patek Philippe Starry Sky 6104 on my wrist. In the mirror, I looked handsome and distinguished. How much is this watch? Sir, the price is $4,800,000. Ring it up. Ding, detected host has spent 4,800,000, double cashback of 9,600,000 yuan. Ding, congratulations host for obtaining 480 system points. System 5 spins on the elementary roulette. Ding, congratulations host for obtaining 100,000 Chinese yuan. Thank you for playing. Ding, congratulations host for obtaining a carton of Zhonghua cigarettes. Thank you for playing. Thank you for playing. It seemed the elementary price pool really didn’t have anything good. I stopped wasting points, had the driver take me back to the villa and booked the earliest flight to Shanghai business class for just over 4 ,000. In the VIP lounge of Tianfu International Airport, a beautiful flight attendant in a red uniform smiled and led me to board. The spacious and comfortable seats of business class made me instantly understand the benefits of being rich. Not long after I sat down, another tall flight attendant with a hint of baby fat on her face knelt beside me and introduced herself in a soft voice, Mr. Wang, hello, I am Xinxingya, a flight attendant on this flight. Her long legs, wrapped in black stockings, were straight, slender, and seductively tempting. I took the hot towel she handed me and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly no wonder all men like flight attendants. If you need anything, just let me know, she said with a smile. What if it’s outside of your duties? I raised an eyebrow, interested. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and smiled, well, that depends on what your question is. For example, adding a contact method and asking you out for dinner tonight, I said calmly, looking directly into her eyes. She was stunned for a moment, her cheeks flushed, and she hesitated. It’s my first time in Shanghai, and am not familiar with the place. They’ll treat you to dinner, and you can be my guide, how about that? I gave her an easy way out. Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she looked around nervously, quickly scribbled a string of numbers on a memo pad, stuffed it into my hand, and then ran away shyly without looking back. I looked at the number on the paper. The corners of my mouth curving up slightly. The plane landed at Pudong International Airport. I took a taxi straight to my destination the McLaren dealership in the Huangpu district. I wanted to buy the dream car of my past life, the McLaren P1. As soon as I entered, a young saleswoman with a curvy figure and a mature charm greeted me. Hello, Mr. Wang, my name is Zhang Rou, and I am a McLaren sales consultant. Can I buy a McLaren P1? Money is not an issue, I said, getting straight to the point. Zhang Rou was stunned, suspecting she had misheard. As a newcomer, she hadn’t expected a young man who arrived by taxi to actually buy a car. Of course, you can, Mr. Wang. We happen to have one in stock right now. She came back to her senses and excitedly led me to see the car. The orange-yellow paint, the classic butterfly doors, the combat-ready cockpit. The moment I sat inside, I made up my mind. He’ll take this one. Full payment. And he’ll drive it away now. Can it be done in one afternoon? No problem, Mr. Wang. Zhang Ra’s voice trembled with excitement. In the configuration room, I said to her directly, select everything, I want the best. In the end, the price on the configuration list settled at 22,600,000. I took out my bank card and said lightly, swipe it. Ding. The system has detected that the host has spent 22 ,600,000 Chinese Yuan, double cashback of 45,200 ,000. Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining 2,260 system points. Two hours later, a grand car delivery ceremony was held in the hall. I took the keys, got into the cockpit, and pressed the start button. V room. The roar of the engine made my blood boil. I turned to look at Zhang Rou in the passenger seat she was looking at me with a face full of gratitude. This single sale had earned her, a rookie intern, a commission of several hundred thousand. Enough to change her difficult life in Shanghai. Are you busy this afternoon? I asked. I? I have to work. I looked at the manager beside her, she’s closed such a big deal, she should be able to take a few days off, right? The manager immediately understood, of course. Xiao Zhang can take a day and a half off. What are you still standing there for? I said to Zhang Rou, get in the car. Where are we going? She asked, looking bewildered. Come for a drive with me. The McLaren P1 shot into the Shanghai traffic like a yellow bolt of lightning. I took her to a Michelin hot pot restaurant, Dong Laiju, where a meal cost over $3,000. Then, we went to the IFC mall. At Hermes, I bought her a light purple dress and a few other new seasonal items. Take a look at the bags. This Birkin 35 is priced at $98,000, the sales associate introduced. Although Zhang Rou yearned for it, she quietly put the bag down. I said directly to the associate, wrap it up. Tell me the total. In the end, 154 ,888 yuan, card swiped. Ding. Double cashback of 309,776 yuan. Zhang Rou held onto my arm, her mind in a daze, feeling as if she were walking on clouds. In her 20-plus years of life, she had never imagined she would one day be shopping at Hermes. Leaving the mall, I drove the car straight to the Bulgari hotel. Please get me the best room you have, I said to the front desk. Sir, our best room is the Bulgari presidential suite, which is 280,000 a night. Book it for a month first. 7,560,000, swiped. Ding. Double cashback of 15,120,000 yuan. The receptionist and Zhang Rou were once again stunned by my spending power. Led by a private butler, we arrived at the presidential suite on the 48th floor. The space was over 400 square meters, with a view of the brilliant night scenery of the Bund outside the window. The butler tactfully excused himself and closed the door. The room immediately fell silent, leaving only the sound of our two increasingly rapid heartbeats. I stepped forward and swept her into my arms. She struggled symbolically for a moment, then went still. I’m going to take a shower first, she said softly. Half an hour later, she emerged from the bathroom wrapped in a white bath towel, her cheeks flushed. I’ll go take a shower first. You change into the clothes and shoes you just bought, I really like what you’re wearing. After Wang Chen finished speaking, he turned and went to the bathroom. In just a few moments, he was done showering and hurriedly walked out. Bang! He pressed the rest button in the room. The lights in the room immediately went out one by one. Only the corridor and the bathroom still had faint light. The curtains in the room automatically drew closed. The night in the magical city was still brightly lit, with traffic flowing like a river. On the crisscrossing streets, vehicles streamed endlessly like flowing rivers of light. Ordinary people continued to enjoy their mundane lives, while the wealthy indulged in nightly revelries. Warning! Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains, quietly spilling onto the bed like threads of silk. The glaring sunlight poured in through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the balcony. Wang Chen slowly woke up, his consciousness still hazy. He felt as if a heavy weight was pressing down on him. Half of his body was numb. He opened his eyes. Lowering his head slightly, his gaze was instantly locked onto the scene before him. What came? Into view was Zhang Rou, sound asleep. Her entire body was wrapped around Wang Chen like an octopus. She lay on his chest like a lazy kitten, obediently nestled against him. A few playful strands of hair swayed gently with her even breathing, softly tugging at his heartstrings. She was in deep sleep, with slightly furrowed brows, clearly a result of last night’s exhaustion. Wang Chen picked up his phone and saw that it was already past 10 in the morning, almost noon. He couldn’t help but marvel at the vitality of youth. He felt invigorated. Wang Chen did not wake Shang Rou. He slowly withdrew his arm that was pinned down, got up, and put on a bathrobe, heading to the living room. Hungry, he prepared to call room service, to have some food sent up. Hello, Mr. Wang, this is the Bulgari Hotel front desk. May I ask what you need? A sweet voice came from the other end of the line. Please send up two lunch meals, I want Chinese food, Wangchen said. Alright, Mr. Wang, we have a luxurious double set meal, the total price is 6,888 yuan, is that acceptable? That’s fine. May I ask if you have any dietary restrictions, Mr. Wang? No, just send your restaurant’s signature dishes. Please hold on, I. We’ll notify the restaurant to prepare it right away, it will take about 30 minutes for the lunch to be delivered to your room. Thank you. You’re welcome, it’s my duty to serve you well. If you need anything else, just let me know. Just. As Wang Chen hung up the phone, he felt someone hug him from behind. I woke up and found you missing, I thought you didn’t want me anymore. I was so scared, Zhang Rou’s plaintive voice came from behind. How could that be? You are now and. Will always be my woman. Wang Chen turned around and hugged Zhang Rou tightly, laughing as he said, it’s getting late, I just called the front desk to have some food sent up. You must be hungry too. Zhang Rou nodded, pouting and acting coy. I just woke up from hunger, and when I opened my eyes, there was no sign of you. After spending the night together, Zhang Rou had changed a lot, she was no longer as shy as before. She was starting to cling to Wang Chen. Alright, after lunch. I’ll take you shopping to make it up to you, that should be fine, right? Wang Chen smiled slightly. No need. Zhang Rou shook her head, I have no strength right now, I can’t even think about shopping. Then we’ll talk about it when you’re feeling better. Wang Chen didn’t press the issue, after all, accompanying a woman shopping could be quite tiring. Just don’t go back on your word. So what is our relationship now? At that moment, Zhang Rou raised her head, blinking. Her bright eyes at Wang Chen, her expression particularly serious, I guess we should be considered boyfriend and girlfriend, right? Wang Chen’s expression stiffened at her words, and he fell silent for a moment to I in his previous life he had lived. In a state of helplessness, unable even to find a woman to marry. Now, having been given a second chance, he was enjoying a carefree life, one that could never be bound by a single woman. Mingling among the flowers was what he truly desired. Of course, you are my girlfriend, Wang Chen did not refute. It was just a relationship between a boyfriend and girlfriend. Was there any law that stated one could only have one girlfriend? Right. After receiving a definite answer, Zhang. Ro, however, was not particularly happy. Instead, she focused on saying, I know, a man like you, handsome and wealthy. Young and vigorous, good at playing poker at night, there are plenty of women who like you. You are so outstanding, I. Can’t possibly enjoy you all to myself, right? But at least you need to give me a title, so I can feel a bit better inside. Zhang Rou’s expression was tense as she bit her lip and said, this request shouldn’t be too much, right? Of course. It’s not too much. Wang Chen smiled slightly. Ah, I knew it. You must not be that honest. Zhang Rou looked at Wang Chen with a resentful gaze, glaring at him like a scorned woman, pa, scumbag. Wang Chen was not angry, he reached out and. Pulled Zhang Rou into his arms, kissing her on her bouncy cheek, then turning her head to face him. Wang Chin looked at her seriously, I can promise you that as long as you are willing, you can always stay by my side. Houses, cars, anything. You want, I can give you. Of course. If you ever decide to leave me, I will also give you a sum of money, enough for you to live on, so we can part on good terms. I will also give you enough love and spend time with you. Wang Chin paused. For a moment and then said, of course, my heart has shattered into countless pieces, so my affection may seem even richer. I believe you can understand. Scumbag. I understand you, my foot. Zhang Rou, upon hearing this, was furious, her back teeth nearly grinding to dust. She grabbed Wang Chen’s arm and bit down. But when she did, Wang Chen felt as if a kitten was nibbling him, like a tickle. Then Zhang Rou released Wang Chen’s arm and dove into his embrace, whispering, I won’t leave you. Alright, let’s not part for a lifetime. Wang Chen patted her back. I’m going to take a shower, you be good. Okay. After a while, Wang Chen kissed Zhang Rou’s face and released her from his embrace. Suddenly, he couldn’t wait to turn and walk into the bathroom. Because Wang Chen suddenly remembered that the system points were enough to draw from the intermediate prize pool, he almost forgot to draw. He wondered how likely it was to hit a good entry from this intermediate prize pool. Wang Chen was incredibly excited about this. After all, the power of the entries had already been vividly demonstrated with the double return entry from the novice rewards. For an ordinary person, having such an entry, could already allow them to control their life and navigate the world. Splash. Wang Chen, bare -chested, turned on the Kohler brand shower. The bathroom was adorned with exquisite marble walls and floors, paired with a delicate showerhead, exuding a luxurious atmosphere. The lighting was soft and warm, creating an overall feeling of relaxation. System, open personal panel. Ding! Personal panel has been opened for the host. Host, Wang Chen age, 20 height, 186 charm, 89 physique, 85 stamina, 94 entry, double cashback, entry effect, all reasonable expenses will be refunded double dot. Points, 3092 points. Why has my stamina decreased a bit? Is it because I was too tired last night? Wang Chen looked at the light. Blue screen that appeared before him. The panel showed a slight decrease in stamina, and he pondered. He felt a bit worried, just one night and his stamina had dropped a bit. If he had more women in the future, wouldn’t that be the end of him? It’s, was fine while he was young, but what if, in 10 years or so, his body could still hold up? Money wouldn’t matter then. System, let’s discuss this. Give me a draw for a physique enhancement attribute. Points are negotiable, just deduct as you. See fit. Wang Chen said to the system with anticipation. Ding. The lottery is entirely determined by the host’s luck. Host, do not think about bribing this system. The system must adhere to the conventions of the system realm. In our system realm, we adhere to three principles, non-interference, no abandonment, no responsibility. Upon hearing the system’s response, Wang Chen secretly gave a middle finger and couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly. He had only intended to make a joke. But he didn’t expect the system to take it so seriously. However, this only made him more curious and eager. Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll rely on my luck to give it a try. Open the intermediate roulette. Start the lottery. As won. Chin spoke. A silver-white roulette appeared before him, radiating a silvery glow, with mysterious patterns constantly swirling on the wheel, exuding an air of mystery. He kept silently chanting in his heart, enhance physique. Strengthen. Physique. Superhuman physique would be fine too. Then he clicked the lottery button. The silver-white roulette began to spin, emitting an even more dazzling light. As the wheel slowly came to a stop, only one symbol continued to flicker with. A silvery sheen. Ding! Consumed 1,000 points, starting the intermediate prize pool lottery. Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won 500 million Huashua coins. Huagua Industrial and Commercial Bank reminds you, your account 2846 has been credited with 50 million, with a balance of 1,587,675 ,270 Huashua coins. Wang Chen was taken aback. Although winning 500 million Hua Xia coins was worth celebrating, he didn’t get the physique attribute he wanted the most. There was. Still some regret. System, draw again from the intermediate roulette. Ding. Consumed 1,000 points, starting the intermediate roulette lottery. As Wang Chen’s voice fell, the silver-white roulette began a new round of spinning on the light blue screen. Thank you for your patronage, we appreciate your participation. Wang Chen’s face darkened as he said, continue. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the attribute extreme physique. Yes, I knew you could do. It, system. Wangchen quickly looked at the effect of the extreme physique attribute. Extreme physique. From this moment on, you are the pinnacle of human physique. Ding. With the help of this system, your bodily changes will not attract. Others’ attention, please rest assured to use it, host. Wangchen was extremely excited. Judging from the attribute’s effect, extreme physique was incredibly powerful. As he donned the extreme physique attribute, he felt a tremendous change. in his body. His physique became stronger, and he seemed to have grown taller. His slightly chubby belly now displayed clear 8-pack abs. His previously somewhat nearsighted eyes became incredibly clear, as if the world before him had been wiped clean with a towel. System, open the personal panel. Host, Wang Chen Age, 20 height, 188 charm, 92 physique, 120, the limit for normal people is 100, stamina, 120, the limit for normal people is 100, attributes, double cashback. attribute effect all reasonable expenses will be refunded double extreme physique attribute effect from this moment on you are the pinnacle of human physique dot points 92 after reading the system panel information a smile spread across wang chen’s face he closed the system panel after taking a shower he dried off casually grabbed a bathrobe and walked out hey why do you seem taller and more handsome jung ro who was bored playing on her phone in the living room noticed wang chen had changed after his shower and couldn’t help but feel puzzled However, under the system’s great power, she inexplicably found it quite reasonable and soon stopped thinking about it. Ding dong. At that moment, the doorbell suddenly rang. Hearing the sound, Zhang Rou got up, put on some clothes, and went to open the door, butler Lin was respectfully standing at the door. Behind him were two female waitstaff pushing a dining cart. Good afternoon, ma’am. Your lunch is ready. Upon seeing Zhang Rou open the door, butler Lin smiled and greeted her. Is lunch here? A voice from inside the room called out, if it’s here, just bring it in. Butler Lin personally took the dining cart from behind and pushed it straight into the reception room. Wang Chin was sitting on the sofa, boredly playing with his phone. Mr. Wang, hello. This is the lunch you ordered prepared by our restaurant’s head chef. I hope you enjoy it. Butler Lin said, slightly bowing, then sequentially lifted the lids of the dishes and introduced them. The first course, rose soy sauce chicken, golden silk chrysanthemum jellyfish and conch slices, main courses, three onion lobster braised chicken pot, steamed east star grouper. braised pork knuckle in abalone sauce, crispy fresh shrimp roll, desserts, mango sago with pomelo cotton candy, and finally, the dessert almond tofu and handmade durian puff. Exquisite dishes were presented one after another in front of Wang Chan and Zhang Rou, a dazzling array. The aroma of the food instantly filled the entire dining room. Although the portions didn’t seem too large, each dish was just enough to satisfy the two of them. Zhang Rou’s eyes showed a look of surprise. The Chinese cuisine at Bagley Hotel was so luxurious. Looking at the colorful and fragrant dishes before her, Zhang Rou unconsciously swallowed. Gurgle. Zhang Rou felt her stomach protesting. Butler. Lin smiled and said, Since I wasn’t sure about Mr. Wang and this lady’s tastes, all the dishes here are our hotel’s signature dishes. If they don’t suit your taste, feel free to let me know, and I can have the chef replace them. No problem. Let’s keep it as is. Wang Chen replied casually, By the way, bring me a bottle of red wine. Sure. Butler Lin inquired, Do you have any brand or vintage requirements? Just choose whatever you think is good, nothing too fancy, a regular red wine worth tens of thousands will do. Wang Chan replied lightly. He could afford to spend hundreds of thousands on wine, but he felt that there was no difference between this kind of wine and one worth a few thousand or ten thousand. He wouldn’t be able to tell the difference anyway. Moreover, choosing a red wine worth over a million for an ordinary lunch felt somewhat out of place. Such wines were usually reserved for important occasions. The restaurant happens to have a 10-year vintage Grand Cru red wine from Domaine de la Romani Conti priced at 68,888. Would that be acceptable? Sure. Wang Chan replied indifferently. Alright, I’ll prepare that for you right away. Butler Lin whispered a few words into his earpiece. In a short while, a waitress brought a bottle of Romani Conti red wine. Butler Lin took the wine, displayed the label and brand in front of Wang Chan and after confirming it was correct, opened the bottle, pouring it into a decanter. A fragrant aroma mixed with the scent of elmwood began to waft as the deep red liquid flowed in. It was intoxicating. Butler Lin poured wine for the two of them, then placed the tall glasses in front of them, quietly leaving the room to avoid disturbing their meal. Let’s eat. Wang Chen was the first to pick up his chopsticks, ready to dig in. However, he noticed that Zhang Rou sitting beside him had not reacted. He couldn’t help but feel puzzled, why aren’t you eating? Didn’t your stomach just growl? Zhang Rou’s face turned red. She hadn’t expected her little actions to be noticed by Wang Chen. I just have never seen such beautiful and exquisite Chinese food, it’s so stunning that I feel a bit reluctant to dig in. Zhang. Ro explained, and a bottle of wine costs 68,000, that’s so extravagant. I really don’t dare to touch it. What’s there to be afraid of? Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, aren’t you a McLaren salesperson? You usually deal with wealthy people. You should have seen this kind of scene quite a bit, right? No matter how rich they are, that’s someone else’s money, and it has nothing to do with me. Zhang Ro pouted, speaking in a delicate tone. Even though I work at the McLaren sales. Center, it doesn’t mean I can buy a McLaren or step into the upper class. Is that so? Wang Chen was quite surprised that Zhang Rou was so clear-headed. After all, many salespeople working in luxury stores or high-end venues, after a long time on the job, tend to develop a sense of superiority, looking down on others. They believe that just by working there, they have crossed a class barrier and are no longer on the same level as their previous lives, which leads them to start looking down on the customers who come to shop. Don’t think too much about it, Wangchen said, reaching out to Pat Zhangro’s head, looking at her with affection. This is just an ordinary lunch, it’s nothing remarkable. And now that you’re with me, you should get used to this kind of life. Money is just a string of numbers, it’s the enjoyment that belongs to you. Treating a bottle of wine worth over 60 ,000 as a regular meal wine is indeed a bit ordinary, Zhangro’s. Expressions stiffened slightly. Although she tried to force a smile, it couldn’t hide the slight twitch of discomfort at the corners of her mouth. Wangchen couldn’t help but chuckle, and he didn’t say anything more, just nodded, let’s eat first. It will get cold. Wait, let me take a picture first. Zhang Rou quickly took out her phone, snapping more than 10 photos, and then, in an unintentional manner, took a picture showing the view outside the window. She also inadvertently revealed the location of the Bulgari hotel. Beauty filter, photo editing. Then clicked send. Only then did Zhang Rou put down her phone with satisfaction. Women are, after all, creatures of contradiction. People are inherently vain. Normal. People, when going out to play or eat, would post on social media, so Wang Chin didn’t think there was anything wrong. After they were full, Zhang Rou lay contentedly on the sofa, her little belly sticking out, the perfect figure subtly hinted at. Beneath her pajamas, incredibly tempting. Seeing this scene, Wang Chin immediately felt interested and moved closer, you should be well rested now. You were a bit rusty with the mini -games last night, let me help you get the hang of it. No! If we keep playing, I’m going to fall apart, Zhang Rou exclaimed, her face paling in fear. But unable to resist Wang Chen, she had no choice but to continue playing the minigames with him. An hour later. Ahem. Zhang Rou, who had choked while playing the sports minigame, glanced at Wang Chen and gave him a flirtatious eye roll before covering her mouth and heading to the bathroom to wash up and brush her teeth. After a while, Zhang Rou came out of the bathroom. However, to Wang Chen’s surprise, Zhang Rou had actually put on the purple dress she bought yesterday. Her hair was neatly styled and her makeup was slightly touched up. Zhang Rou stood there, gently tossing her hair, having just bathed, it still had a hint of moisture, making her skin look exceptionally radiant. It’s all your fault, I can’t wear this outfit at all, Zhang Rou said, sitting on Wang Chen, pointing at her McLaren sales uniform with annoyance. It’s covered in dirt, I don’t even know if I can wear it after washing it for work tomorrow. Wang Chen chuckled at her words, then just don’t go to work. That won’t do, my supervisor just gave me a day and a half off. Zhang Rou shook her head and said, if I don’t go to work, will you support me? I’ll support you. Wang Chen said without hesitation. Zhang Rou stared at Wang Chen for a moment feeling warm inside. She didn’t really want to part ways with him. When a couple first gets together, they always want to stick. Together for 24 hours. Zhang Rou was no exception. However, she still said, if I don’t go to work, I would feel like I’m being kept by you. Only when I’m at work can I have a little bit of myself in front of you, so I have to go home. Now. Well, if you’re not happy at work, just change jobs, find something easier, and feel happy. Wang Chen pondered for a moment and said. Zhang Rou stood up, looking at Wang Chen with a face full of resentment, just give you a little personal space, so you have the chance to flirt outside, and I won’t be bothered if I don’t see it. Wang Chen suddenly felt that what Zhang Rou said made sense, if they stayed together, there would be no time to find other girls. It was indeed good, to have time to do his own things. Alright, I’ll take you home. I’ll transfer you 200,000, buy whatever you want, don’t hold back, tell me when you run out. Wang Chen didn’t transfer too much money to Zhang Rou, after all. Giving money also requires skill, too little is bad, and too much is definitely not good. Otherwise, he would just become a fool. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 200 ,000, double cashback of 400,000. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 20 system points. Moi upon hearing this, Zhang Rou’s eyes instantly curved into crescent moons, and she became happy again, hugging Wang Chen’s face and giving him a hard kiss, you’re so nice. Zhang Rou gazed at the young and handsome man in front of her, and she suddenly realized that she had completely fallen in love with Wang Chen. Of course, it wasn’t just because of the money. Wang Chin just smiled in response, casually rapping. His arms around Zhang Rou’s waist, gently pulling her body close to his. He slowly lowered his head and softly covered her tender lips with his. Their eyes were tightly closed, immersed in this passionate and affectionate kiss, as if the whole world had been reduced to just the two of them. It wasn’t until they both gasped for air that they reluctantly ended this lingering kiss, yet their gazes remained tightly intertwined. In the afternoon, the two arrived at the Underground parking lot of the Bulgari Hotel and Wang Chen started his beloved car, the McLaren P1 V Room. With a press of the accelerator, the McLaren P1’s engine roared to life. The car smoothly drove out of the underground parking lot, heading towards the apartment where Zhang Rou rented. Half an hour later, Wang Chen arrived at the destination, located in the northern part of the Magic City. The rent here is relatively low, but the transportation is still convenient, and many recent graduates choose to rent here. The community where Zhang Rou lived had a decent environment. At least his sports car successfully parked downstairs after lowering its chassis. Moi. Darling, do you want to come up for a bit? I’m. Sharing the apartment with a friend, she should be at work now, so there shouldn’t be anyone at home. Zhang Rou got out of the car with her shopping bag, suddenly leaned in and kissed Wang Chen on the cheek, then asked. Alright, let’s go check. Out your place. Wang Chen replied casually. He was indeed interested in visiting a woman’s apartment, after all, it was his first time. Let’s go, I’ll take you up. Wang Chen stepped forward, wrapping his arms around Zhang Rou’s waist, walking, while casually surveying the environment of the community. Although this community wasn’t old, it clearly lacked maintenance. The green belts were overgrown with weeds, trash bins were scattered with garbage, and an unpleasant smell lingered in the air. Upon reaching Zhang Rou’s residence, she took out her keys and opened the door. Wang Chen followed her into the room. The entire layout was compact, with simple and practical furniture, and the equipment wasn’t very complete. There was no one at home, it seemed she had gone to work. This is my little nest, although it’s not big, it’s very cozy, Zhang Rou smiled as she introduced. Rou Rou, Wang Chin said softly, his tone carrying a hint of concern, I think you should. Consider finding a new place to live. The environment here really isn’t good, it’s too much of a compromise for you. Zhang Rou was taken aback for a moment and softly replied, actually, I’ve been considering this issue too, I just haven’t found a suitable place. I think the agency will solve this problem, Wang Chin said. He then took out his phone, opened the app to contact the agency, found a high-end apartment, and also helped to contact a moving company. After handling these matters, he chose to go downstairs and leave. Wang Chen arrived at the parking area of the community. He saw two girls standing in front of his car, one of whom was sitting on the hood of a McLaren P1 taking pictures. Both girls looked very young and were quite attractive. They had great figures, tall and slim, but their faces looked somewhat unnatural, clearly having undergone cosmetic surgery. One girl had dyed blonde hair, wearing a tight short skirt paired with black stockings, and a short crop top that exposed her slender waist and flat abdomen. The other girl wore a black dress, the hem reaching mid-thigh, showcasing her long legs, wearing sunglasses, and carrying a black Chanel bag of uncertain authenticity. The one taking pictures was dressed like a socialite. Wang Chen raised his eyebrows but did not urge them to move along, instead, he stood by, watching them take photos with interest. Noticing someone watching, the two girls remained unfazed, continuing with their antics. He did not linger any longer and walked straight to his car. At this time, it was the peak travel period in the Magic City, and he did not want to be stuck on the road for hours. That would be counterproductive. Unexpectedly, as Wang Chen approached the car, the girl in the black dress, posing on the hood, glanced at him and said, no contact information. Also, you’re really creepy, staring at me like that, the other girl chimed in. Yeah, creepy guy. You look. Like a local loser. Wang Chen was taken aback. He hadn’t expected that just standing nearby for a moment, trying not to disturb them, would lead to such a misunderstanding. At that moment, a trendy young man walked up, covered in brand logos and, sporting dyed yellow hair. Hey, beautiful ladies, this is my car. Want to hop in for a bit? The girl in the black dress immediately lit up, excitedly saying, is that okay, big brother? Wouldn’t it be too much trouble? The young man pretended, to be cool, saying, add me on Faisheen, I’m nearby handling some business, I’ll take you for a ride another day. Thanks, big brother, I’ll scan you. Big brother, add me too, the blonde girl said. Wang Chen was stunned, where did these oddballs come from? He couldn’t be bothered to explain much. He had nothing to say to these fake socialites in the magic city. He took out his car key and pressed the unlock button. The McLaren’s roof lit up immediately. Wang Chen opened the cool door of the McLaren and got in. The two socialites’ expressions changed instantly upon seeing this. Sorry, sorry, big brother. Damn, you loser, what are you pretending for? Get lost. The trendy guy, realizing he had encountered the real owner, quickly fled without daring to stay a moment longer. The girl in the black dress hurried to the driver’s side window, apologizing, it’s just that so many people usually ask for contact information, so we misunderstood earlier. I didn’t expect you to be the owner of this car. Alright, I got it, Wang Chen replied, preparing to close the door, but was stopped by the other girl. Big brother, don’t be angry, what kind of car is this? It’s so cool. This fake socialite was. Trying to act cute, wanting to create a very innocent image, I just saw this car was different from others, so I took a few pictures with my friend. Wang Chen looked at her, a smile in his eyes, but did not respond. What kind of car is this? Didn’t she know? These fake socialites in the Magic City probably knew more about the car’s specs than he did, after all, the socialite classes weren’t taken for nothing. I just happened to be going home, I wonder if you could give me a ride, sitting. In this car must be different from others, right? The golden-haired socialite kept talking, her eyes radiating a longing light. Take me, big brother. I can accompany you for a meal. The other socialite, dressed in a black dress, was not. To be outdone, to express my apologies, I’ll treat you to dinner, we can go to my house, my cooking is quite good. No, thanks. Wang Chin directly refused, I have things to do, so I’ll be leaving now. Although he felt annoyed by these. Socialites, he didn’t want to make a scene, it was better to ignore them. Of course, even if Wang Chin offended them, it wouldn’t affect him at all. How about adding me on Faixin? The girl in the black dress quickly took out her phone, smiling. Whenever you have time, come to my house, I’m always free. Maybe next time. Wang Chin waved his hand, no longer giving the two a chance to speak, and closed the car door. He started the car. V room. With a press of the accelerator, the car. Sped away like a bullet, leaving a trail of dust in the air. The two socialites stood in place, stamping their feet in frustration. Their lifelong dream was to marry into a wealthy family, to catch a rich husband and become a wealthy lady. They never expected that the opportunity would be right in front of them, yet they let it slip away. It’s all your fault, how was he being lewd? You’re just talking nonsense. And you blame me? Did you even hear what you just said, some local? Loser? How ridiculous. Anyway, it’s your fault. No, it’s yours. Ah, you hit me. I’ll hit you, it’s all your fault, otherwise he would’ve had dinner with me tonight. The two socialites continued to blame each other, eventually getting into a tug of war. After a while, they stopped pulling at each other. They took out their phones, edited the photos of the McLaren they had just taken, and sent them to the socialite group in Magic City and their facing moments. Oh my gosh. This is a McLaren P1. It’s worth millions. Where did my sister find such a high-quality guy? Introduce me to one too. Sisters, if there’s a high-quality gathering, don’t forget to take me alone. Sister, can you talk to your boyfriend for me? Let me take a few pictures too. The goddess is still so beautiful. This McLaren must be the goddess’s own, not her boyfriend’s. It can’t be. It can’t be. Before long, there were many comments from the socialite group and admirers under the posts. Of course, the comments from the admirers were directly ignored by the two. Standing in the community parking lot, they browsed through the compliments from their friends in the group, feeling extremely satisfied. Each secretly vowed to find a way to win over such a high-quality guy. Wang Chen was driving the McLaren P1 on the road, completely unaware that he had caught the attention of these two socialites. He was currently heading towards Magic City Finance University. As the car gradually approached the school gate, a long-lost yet familiar feeling arose. Memories of his alma mater felt like old photos sealed in a dusty album, still lingering in the form from over a decade ago. The security guard was clearly attracted by the luxury car but didn’t stop him too much, simply registering some information before letting him through. Wang Chen then parked the car in the north road parking lot. He walked towards spring water lake where the fish swam freely and the willow swayed by the shore, just as he remembered. However, it was summer vacation now, and the campus was devoid of the usual hustle and bustle, with hardly anyone around. Usually, the woods. By spring Water Lake were filled with couples, as it was a holy place for dating. He then strolled around Cherry Blossom Path and Yuhong Building. Unfortunately, the few sons in the dormitory are not around, it’s been many years since we last met. Wang Chen sighed slightly, feeling a bit regretful. In his previous life, he had a good relationship with his three roommates. They often brought each other meals and called each other sons, but after graduation, everyone got busy with. Their livelihoods and their contact gradually dwindled. Then, Wang Chen left the campus and arrived at the Snack Street near the Financial University. This Snack Street is close to both the University of Revival and the Financial University. And at the other end, it connects to a shopping plaza and the Magic City Sports Stadium. Even during the summer vacation, the foot traffic here is still quite substantial. As he approached, the noisy clamor surged like a tide. The streets were lined with a dazzling array of snack stalls. Joji’s Roasted Pig Trotters Lambskewers, Shinjiang Lambskewers. Delicious and not expensive jianbing whizzy fragrant spicy squid, don’t miss it as you pass by. Stinky tofu. The bustling atmosphere of the human world is the most comforting to ordinary hearts. The vendors on the street continuously called out, enticing passers-by. Wang Chen walked while eating, his mouth full of grease. It had been many years since he had tasted the snacks at the school gate, he couldn’t help but feel nostalgic. He then stopped in front of an old snail noodle shop. Uncle Zhang, one bowl of snail noodles, add an egg and pig trotters, Wang Chen said to the busy middle-aged. Couple in front of him. Hey, it’s you, kid. Aren’t you on summer vacation? Why haven’t you gone home? Uncle Zhang looked at Wang Chen, his eyes lighting up. I just wanted to eat the snail noodles made by you, Uncle Zhang, so I came specifically. To the magic city. You kid, really know how to talk. Alright, hurry and sit down, I’ll make it for you right away. I’m not bragging, your Uncle Zhang’s snail noodles are a specialty on this street. Uncle Zhang’s face beamed with a hearty smile. His eyes sparkling with warmth as he spoke quickly starting to prepare the ingredients. Xiaoyu hasn’t come in a long time. Hurry and find a seat. Aunt Zhang also stepped forward to greet him. Wangchen casually found an empty spot and sat down. In his previous life, he had eaten Uncle Zhang’s snail noodles for four years during college, and in this life, he had eaten them for another two years. He had been craving this taste for a long time. Uncle Zhang and his wife were nearly 50 years old. He heard they had a son in his 20s, but he had never seen him come to help. The couple were honest people, always adhering to using genuine ingredients in their business, and they had many loyal customers, making. them particularly busy at this moment. Before long, the snail noodles were served, and Uncle Zhang said with a hearty smile, all right, eat up. Let the fried eggs soak in the broth a bit longer before eating. Okay, you keep busy. Wang Chen picked up his chopsticks, eagerly reaching for the bowl of snail noodles. The rice noodles were distinct, stretching freely in the rich, bright broth. The broth was deep and enticing in color, perfectly blending the freshness of the snails, the spiciness of the chili, the richness of the sour bamboo shoots and the unique aroma of various spices, creating an irresistible rich flavor that made one drool just from the smell. Mmm, delicious, still that taste. Wang Chen couldn’t help but. Exclaim. He took a bite of the perfectly soaked fried egg, and the broth burst in his mouth, intertwining the egg’s fragrance with the deliciousness of the snail soup, intoxicating him. The soft and tender pig trotters melted in his mouth. Before. Long, he had finished a large bowl of snail noodles cleanly. Burp Uncle Zhang, the money has been transferred. Wangqin stood up, his belly full, showing no airs of a rich second generation. He took out his phone and scanned the QR code. To transfer 100 yuan, then continued to stroll through the snack street with the crowd. Why did you transfer too much? Quickly take out your QR code, I’ll transfer the extra back to you. Uncle Zhang, hearing the payment voice report. 100 yuan quickly took out his phone and said. You keep it for now, Uncle Zhang, I’ll come back to eat later. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to transfer a little more, but he was afraid the old couple wouldn’t accept his money. After. all, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future to come and eat. By the time he returned to the parking lot of the financial university, it was already past 10 o’clock.At this moment, the campus was shrouded in the night, tranquil and serene, with only the streetlights casting a dim yellow blow, adding a touch of hazy poetry to the area. Wang Chen strolled leisurely, pressing the unlock button to get into the car. He leaned back comfortably in the driver’s seat, adjusting his posture to make himself more at ease. Boom. After a moment, he slowly placed his foot on the gas pedal, and with a gentle press, the car roared to life like a beast awakened, emitting a deep and powerful growl as it smoothly drove. Out of the university gates, the car gradually moved away, leaving only the fading blow of its taillights in the night. Half an hour later, Wang Chen parked in front of the Bulgari hotel. As soon as he got out, a doorman hurried over, took the car keys, and went to park his vehicle. Returning to his room, he found that the lighting and the positions of the sheets and pillows had already been adjusted. A pot of hot drink was also prepared on the tea table. To be honest, the service at the Bulgari Hotel was quite impressive. Although it was a bit pricey, the comfort it provided was undeniable. A night of sweet dreams. At noon, the sun shone like golden threads filtering through the soft gaps in the curtains, quietly spilling onto the spacious and luxurious bed of the Bulgari Hotel. Wang Chen slowly awakened from his dreams under the gentle light. He lazily stretched, feeling his body gradually coming to life from slumber. The bedding was as smooth as. silk, and the sealy mattress was incredibly soft, making him greedily linger in the softness for a moment longer. I slept so well, it’s almost noon. Wang Chen got up and walked to the window, pulling back the curtains. Instantly, a flood of sunlight poured into the room, painting everything in bright gold. Outside the window was the beautiful street scene of this bustling metropolis, with boats gliding across the river and the busy streets already bustling in the morning. Wang Chen enjoyed the snacks sent by the hotel on the terrace, quietly appreciating it all, filled with comfort and relaxation. Damn, how could I forget one thing? Wang Chen suddenly looked embarrassed. Damn, how could I forget one thing? he exclaimed. Again, realizing he had forgotten about his date with the flight attendant Xinxingya. He then felt in his pocket for a small note. Thankfully, it was still there and hadn’t fallen out. He then dialed the number on it. Ding ding ding. The phone emitted a pleasant sound. After a moment, the call connected, and a familiar and melodious voice came through. Hello, may I ask who this is? It was Xinxingya, the flight attendant he had met on the Ronghong flight. This is Wang Chen. On the other end, Xinxingya was silent for a moment, then her tone became somewhat stiff. Mr. Wang, may I ask what you need? Xinxingya was clearly upset. Even though Wang Chen was somewhat oblivious to women’s psychology, he could still sense the stiffness in her voice. He rubbed his nose, it was unavoidable. After all, he had run into Zhang Rou later, which made him forget about his date with her, leaving her hanging. It took him a full two days to remember before he called. Horror. Didn’t we agree on the plane that you would take me around the city and be my guide? I’ll treat you to dinner. Wang Chen said with a smile. It seems Mr. Wang doesn’t really need me, does he? After all, anyone can be a tour guide, and. You’ve been in the city for so long, you should be familiar with it by now. My vacation is also running short, I have to catch a flight back to Rong province early tomorrow morning. Even over the phone, Wang Chen could hear the deep resentment. In Xinxing’s tone, I don’t have much time either, let’s talk later when I have time. I just had some things to take care of, and once I finished, I called you. Wang Chen explained, silently putting down his breakfast and saying, I only. Have time today, thinking about our agreement. See, it’s almost noon, and I contacted you right away. Really? Xinxingya was somewhat swayed by Wang Chen’s words. After all, she didn’t want to miss the chance to date such an outstanding man. Of course it’s true. Wang Chen smiled slightly, not giving Xinxingya a chance to refuse. Where do you live? I’ll drive over to pick you up. Maybe it’s better to forget it. I’m staying with my colleagues, and we’re out shopping right. Now. Xinxingya seemed very hesitant, feeling a mix of excitement and conflict. If she agreed too easily, would Wang Chen misunderstand her as a casual woman? But she also felt reluctant to refuse. Just give me the address, consider it my apology. For this meal. Wang Chen’s words easily dissolved Xinxingya’s inner grievances. Alright then, I’ll give you the address, you can come pick me up. Xinxingya’s voice dropped significantly. Okay, it should take me about 40 minutes to get there. When I arrive, I’ll call you, and you can come down. Wang Chen said before hanging up the phone. At Shanghai Pudong Airport, the Dajong Airport Hotel. It’s relatively close to the airport and is considered a good airline hotel, specifically arranged for flight attendants. The hotel is well-equipped, and the surrounding facilities are also quite complete, so it’s not bad at all. Next to the airport, at a brand-name store, Xinxingya and her colleague Nana were shopping. She put down her phone, slightly biting her lip, and frustratedly ruffled her hair. Seeing Xinxingya like this, her colleague couldn’t help but ask, Xinxingya, what’s wrong? Why the long face? Xinxingya was momentarily at a loss for. words, stammering without being able to say anything, while her ears turned red first. You’re not dating a boyfriend, are you? Colleague Nana’s eyes lit up as if she had discovered a new continent. Your ears are red, don’t deny it. Of course not. Shinxingya blushed deeply, shyly saying, just a regular friend. Is it a guy or a girl? Eh, a guy. Shinxingya’s voice grew increasingly lacking in confidence. We all agreed to have dinner together later, why are you, ditching me now, saying he’s not your boyfriend? Nana looked incredulous. He’s not my boyfriend, really just a regular friend. Xinxingya stomped her foot in frustration. How did you meet? Is he handsome? What does his family do? He must be very wealthy, otherwise how could he quietly win over the most beautiful flight attendant in our crew? You should introduce us later, I’m quite curious about what he looks like. Nana completely ignored Xinxingya’s words, her curiosity ignited, and her gossip spirit instantly came alive. Oh, stop it, Nana. Xinxingya’s face had turned a deep shade of red, if you keep saying this, I won’t talk to you anymore. Which one? I need to go back to the dorm for a bit. Colleague. Nana rolled her eyes and stopped pressing for more details. Turning around, she secretly took out her phone and sent a message in their group chat. Breaking news. Come quick for the gossip. What news? What’s going on? Where’s the gossip? Soon, a flurry of messages appeared in the group. Colleague Nana smirked. Xingya is in a relationship. I just found out. Her boyfriend is coming to pick her up soon. Do you all want to go down and meet him? See what kind of person can win over. Our crew’s most beautiful flight attendant? As soon as the snooze broke, the group chat exploded like a bombshell. Countless messages popped up, all discussing going downstairs together to see who this mysterious person was that could capture. Their most attractive flight attendant, Xinxingya was indeed unaware of this, she simply walked silently towards the dormitory, preparing to tidy up her makeup. In fact, Wang Chen was the first contact she received after starting her job. And she felt a sense of anticipation in her heart. When she had just landed and arrived at the hotel, she began to wash up and put on makeup. However, she waited until 11 o’clock at night without receiving a call from Wang Chen, which made her particularly angry. The words of men are deceitful, it seemed that everything Wang Chen said on the plane was a lie. He had forgotten about her the moment he got off the plane. Just after receiving Wang Chen’s call, her anger was dissipated by his few words, and instead, she felt a bit of joy. Ten minutes later, at the Dajong Airport Hotel, Xinxingya was scolding herself for being useless in her heart while hurriedly fixing her makeup in front of the mirror. Buzz buzz. Suddenly. A ringtone rang out. Xinxingya looked and saw it was Wangqin calling, she quickly answered. Hello? I’m downstairs, come down when you’re ready. Okay, okay, I’ll be right down. After hanging up, Xinxingya noticed her colleague. Nana was secretly standing nearby, eavesdropping. When Nana realized that Xinxingya had caught her in the act, she didn’t feel embarrassed at all, instead, she laughed and said, the person who just called you is your boyfriend, right? It’s just a simple meal with a friend, not a boyfriend, Xinxingya reiterated her stance. If he’s not your boyfriend, then why not have dinner with me? You already made plans, and it’s just the two of you going out? Nana countered. Shen Xingya was at a loss for words and didn’t know how to respond. She couldn’t possibly reveal what had happened on the plane, otherwise, they would laugh at her for a long time. Thinking of this, her face turned red again. Hurry up, let’s go downstairs. Quickly, don’t keep him waiting. Nana didn’t give Shen Xingya a chance to argue, pushing her down the stairs. Aren’t you going down too, sis? Shen Xingya asked in surprise. Oh, I’m just going down to take a look and help you out, Nana. Replied. Hurry up, stop talking, she urged, her curiosity burning bright. Xinxingya was also a bit anxious, she couldn’t let Wangchen wait too long and couldn’t stop Nana from going down, so she had to agree. You can come down, but you can’t. Talk nonsense, I’m not very familiar with him yet, Xinxingya warned again, feeling uneasy. Okay, okay, I got it, let’s go down quickly, Nana said, directly pushing Xinxingya. Xinxingya could only walk towards the hotel elevator, only, to find the other three sisters already waiting at the door. When they saw Xinxingya come out, their eyes lit up, and they surrounded her, chattering about wanting to see her boyfriend. At that moment, Xinxingya realized what was happening, and shot a glare at Nana. Nana, knowing she was in the wrong, shrank her neck and hid behind the crowd like a turtle. With the situation at hand, Xinxingya couldn’t stop it and could only sigh in resignation. She accepted her fate. She stood, expressionless in the elevator, silently praying that this group wouldn’t say anything inappropriate later. Otherwise, it would ruin Wang Chen’s impression of her. Ding. The elevator successfully arrived at the hotel lobby. Nana immediately poked her head out, looking around the lobby. Xingya, where is he? I don’t see him. Xin Xingya frowned, searching for Wang Chen’s figure. Xingya, over here. Wang Chen’s voice came from the entrance of the lobby. Everyone looked up, and a chorus of surprised voices erupted. Their expressions were filled with shock. Standing by the roadside across from the lobby was Wang Chen, who was 1.88 meters tall, dressed in a white casual outfit, wearing a Patek Philippe Starry Sky 6104 on. His wrist, looking fresh and clean, IT was simply because of his youthful face, paired with a sunny and handsome demeanor. He stood out in the crowd, making it impossible not to cast a glance in his direction. Of course, it also had a lot to do. With the Patek Philippe watch on his wrist and the McLaren P1 behind him, it created a strong visual impact. That’s a McLaren, right? This model must cost at least 10 million, right? Probably more, with all the options, it might even reach. 20 million. Look, isn’t that a Patek Philippe watch on his wrist? It really is a Patek Philippe. Xingya, where did you find such a well-off boyfriend? I’m so envious, he’s not only handsome but also tall and rich. After a flurry of chatter, Xin Xingya’s friends finally quieted down. Their expressions were excited, their eyes constantly scanning the McLaren and the Patek Philippe watch. Xin Xingya hadn’t expected that Wang Chen would actually arrive in a McLaren. However, seeing her friends’ envious gazes filled her heart with joy. Although she felt a bit shy, it greatly satisfied her vanity. She walked up to Wang Chen and shyly said, these are my colleagues and also my good friends. They. insisted on coming down to see you, and I couldn’t stop them, so there was nothing I could do. It’s fine. Wang Chen just smiled at her words and turned to greet them. Hello, I’m Wang Chen. Hello, you must be Qingya’s boyfriend. When did you two get together? Nana stepped forward, grinning broadly as she said to Wang Chen, I’m Li Na, Qingya’s colleague and good friend. You’re really handsome, no wonder you managed to win over our flight attendant flower. Nana, shut up. Before Li Na could finish her sentence, Xin Qingya became anxious. She hurriedly stepped forward and covered Lina’s mouth, her face flushed as she explained to Wang Chen, she just likes to talk nonsense, don’t listen to her. Xin Xinya glared at Lina and said, I’ve already said we’re just ordinary friends, it’s not like that at all. Ordinary friends? Lina looked at Wang Chen, her face full of smiles, that just proves you haven’t won her over yet. Wang Chen, you need to step up your game and try to win this high mountain flower. Why not bribe us? You can take Xinya out to have fun, and later bring us along. As her friends, we can help you with some sweet talk, and it’ll be easy. Woo woo, Li Na wanted to say. Something more, but Xin Xingya quickly covered her mouth, preventing her from continuing. The other friends chimed in with excitement. Nana is right. If you take us out and have fun, we guarantee you’ll achieve twice the result with half the. Effort. Getting little Xingya won’t be a problem at all. If she’s unwilling, we’ll tie her to the bed. Yes, exactly. Xin Xingya was overwhelmed and couldn’t stop them, so she could only raise her voice, if you keep this up, I’m really going. To get angry. No problem. Just as her words fell, Wang Chen’s voice came through. Wang Chen smiled and said, after Ching Ye and I finish eating, I’ll book a spot at a bar later and we can all go sit together and have some fun. Is that for real? Li Na and the other’s eyes instantly lit up. They had just graduated from university and become flight attendants, all very young, naturally possessing the heart of youth. It was the perfect age for fun. Of course. Wang Chen confirmed. Once I book the spot, I’ll have Ching Ye send you the details. Then it’s settled. Li Na pushed the shy Xinxingya next to Wang Chen, saying, since you’re so generous, I’ll leave Xinxingya in your care, you better take good care of her. Nana. Xinxingya was flustered. How could Li Na keep saying such embarrassing things? She buried her head in her ample bosom, not daring to lift it for a long time. Her earlobes, as translucent as jade, had already turned red. She stole a glance. At Wang Chen. Did his arrangement mean he had already tacitly acknowledged his pursuit of her? At this moment, Li Na leaned close to Xinxingya’s ear and whispered, biting her ear softly, you fool. Are you stupid? I’m helping you. Can’t. You see those little vixens with their eyes all red? Where else can you find such a rich, young, and handsome man? If you don’t seize the opportunity, they will soon replace you and go on dates with Wang Chen. You better hold on tight, eh? Quality man like this, if you miss him, you might not meet another in this lifetime. Xin Xinya’s expression froze as she looked around. Sure enough, the gazes of the other three sisters were fixed on Wang Chen, not blinking. As a girl, she knew exactly what they were thinking. One by one, they looked like wolves eyeing a lamb, wishing they could devour Wang Chen. It was just that, with her present, they felt too shy to act. She feared that if she hesitated even slightly, they would pounce on him. A handsome and wealthy man like that was hard to come by. Xinxingya’s heart suddenly raced. She also had feelings for Wang Chen, otherwise, she wouldn’t have agreed to go out to dinner with him. But with her personality, it was impossible for her to take the initiative to ask a guy out. Xinxingya could only bite her lip and silently get into the car. Seeing this, Wang Chen waved at Li Na and the others, then started the McLaren P1. V room. V room. The engine of the McLaren P1 roared with waves of sound. Then, the car smoothly drove out of everyone’s sight. Inside the car, the atmosphere was slightly awkward. Xin Xinya felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, her expression full of discomfort. Only then did Wang Chen have the time to carefully observe Xin Xinya. Today, Xin Xinya wasn’t wearing her airline uniform, her hair was down her back, making her look even more youthful and vibrant. She wore a white shawl over. A light pink sports tank top. The tank top seemed tailor-made for her, tightly hugging her upper body curves, perfectly outlining her full and elastic chest. Her ample cleavage, illuminated by the sunlight, was quite tempting. Her delicate collarbone was fully visible. She wore a pair of small silver earrings on her ears. Her lower half was paired with a knee-length white pleated skirt, and her long, straight legs were adorned with a pair of cream-colored flat sandals. Her skin glowed, smooth as milk. Standing at 1 .7 meters tall, even in flat sandals, her figure remained tall and shapely. With light makeup, Xinxingya exuded a blend of purity and cuteness, yet not lacking in sexiness. She radiated pure desire. Wang Chen was astonished by Xinxingya’s allure, but his gaze was drawn to her long legs. These legs could be said to be the most beautiful he had ever seen in his two lifetimes. He could never get tired of them. Xinxingya, already a bit shy, fell a bit uneasy when she noticed Wang Chen’s gaze wandering over her, finally settling on her legs. She instinctively closed her legs and adjusted her sitting posture. Biting her lip tightly, she silently lowered her head. However, Wang Chen’s gaze felt almost tangible, making her feel as if invisible hands were caressing her legs. Have you looked enough? Can you please focus on driving? While secretly pleased with her own charm, her shyness made her body feel very uncomfortable. Shen. Xingya couldn’t help but pout, I thought you were a decent person, I didn’t expect you to be such a lecher. Wang Chen, caught out, showed no sign of embarrassment on his face. He smiled lightly and said, when faced with beautiful things, people always look at them with an appreciative gaze. It’s only natural. It’s beautiful, but you can’t keep staring. Xinxingya’s body trembled slightly as she lowered her head and said, you’re still driving, focus. What if we encounter danger? Hee hee. You’ll know if you look up. Wang Chen suddenly said something inexplicable, causing Xinxingya to raise her head in confusion. Then she saw a scene that astonished her. It was noon, and there were still quite a few vehicles on the road. However, around Wang Chen’s car, there was a clear path. Wang Chen was not very skilled at driving, let alone handling a supercar like the McLaren P1. The drivers on both sides of the road, seeing Wang Chen’s poor driving skills, instinctively kept their distance from the McLaren, creating an inexplicably large open space on what should have been a congested road. Even if someone wanted to overtake, they kept a considerable distance from Wang Chen’s car. After all, the yellow McLaren P1 was highly recognizable. Passing vehicles stayed far away, fearing a careless scrape. If it was Wang Chen’s fault, that would be fine, but if it was their problem, even with insurance, their wallets would take a significant hit. This was still the magic city, if it were a smaller city, the situation would be even more exaggerated. Xinxingya couldn’t help but shake her head. Indeed, when you have money, everything around you seems beautiful. Is this car new? It looks really expensive, she asked after a moment of silence. That’s right, I just bought it yesterday. About 20 million, right? After receiving Wang Chen’s confirmed answer, Xinxingya fell silent, a bit puzzled as she asked. Aren’t you just visiting the Magic City? How are you going back to Jincheng? Wang Chen looked at the car, paying attention to the passing vehicles, I start school in September and the school is in the Magic City. What? Xinxingya exclaimed. In surprise, you’re still a student? To be precise, I’m a sophomore currently studying at the Magic City University of Finance. Wang Chen replied calmly. Wang Chen looked very young but after interacting with him, one could sense a unique. calmness about him. Xinxingya could clearly feel this inherent steadiness, which made it easy to overlook his youthful appearance. Xinxingya mistakenly thought that Wang Chen’s age should be about the same as hers, certainly not younger. She never expected that he was still a sophomore. So how old are you this year? Xinxingya asked nervously, tentatively. Just turned 20, Wang Chen said with a playful smile, revealing a set of bright white teeth. Xinxingya felt her mindset crumbling. It felt like life was devoid of meaning. She was already 24 this year, had graduated from university, and had been working for two years, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to enter an airline company. At this age, women are somewhat sensitive, by 25 or 26, they start to feel anxious. 24 is the last and most beautiful age in a woman’s youth, in a few years, she would be considered a leftover woman. The pressure from her family too. Mary and the sense of crisis brought on by age made Xinxingye entertain thoughts of romance, which is why she gave Wangchen a chance. But who would have thought that the first person she gave her contact information to would only be 20 years old? Although there’s a saying that a woman in her third year of university can marry a rich man, she was four years older than Wang Chen. Would he think less of her for being older? By the time Wang Chen graduated from university and they got married, would she be 30? She often teased greasy middle-aged men who sought younger women but who would have thought she would find herself in the same situation? Xinxingya fell into a spiral of thoughts, her head buzzing. If her. Friends found out she was dating someone so much younger, they would surely laugh at her. She couldn’t help but feel a sense of retreat, yet part of her was reluctant. After all, with Wang Chen’s background, being only a sophomore and already, driving a McLaren P1, it was clear his family was well off. When he could afford a Patek Philippe and Fly business class, Xinxingya already knew his family background was good. Now it seemed she had been too conservative. But if she just gave up like this, she might never meet someone like Wang Chen again. Is age important? Wang Chen blanced at Xinxingya and asked. Isn’t it important? Xin Xingya retorted, after all, women are very concerned about their age. If the two of them were to continue on together, age would become especially important. She recalled the way her sisters looked at Wang Chen just now, even if they knew his age, they would probably rush in without hesitation. Not to mention that Wang Chen was so rich and handsome. Xin Xingya fell silent for a moment, choosing not to dwell on the topic any longer. Instead, she glanced at Wang Chen and said, where are we going to eat? At this time, it’s just mealtime. The nearby restaurants whiff. Good reputations are probably already packed. How about we just find a random place to eat? It’s fine, I’ve already made a reservation at a restaurant, we just need to go there. Wang Chen looked at the navigation and said it would take about 10 more minutes to arrive. As he spoke casually, his hand naturally rested on Xinxingya’s long leg. Xinxingya felt a bit shy. Wang Chen’s warm palm rested on her thigh, and she could feel that his hand was large and slightly rough. Her face instantly turned red. She pushed his hand away, wanting to move it off, don’t do that, we’ve only just met, and I’m not that kind of person. Hearing this, Wang Chen smiled. It was just this hint of a green tea vibe. Quite right. However, Xinxingya’s skills were clearly not up to par. She could only be considered a novice in the tea world. After pushing for a while, Wang Chen’s hand remained on her thigh. After several attempts, she decided to let it be. Before long, Wang Chen arrived at the restaurant he had reserved earlier. Lunette by Amanda. This was a restaurant with a very romantic atmosphere. Although the prices were a bit high, many couples still came to check it out. So Wang Chen chose this place. thinking it would be a bit more romantic for their first date. After parking the car, they got out. Wang Chin directly took Xinxing Ye’s small hand, which was particularly soft, like a delicate and warm piece of jade, tender, and boneless. After struggling for a moment, she quieted down and chose to let it be. He then walked towards the restaurant. Lunette by Amanda is located by the Bund. The exterior is a solemn and classical historical building in Pushi, while the interior is elegantly decorated. The floor-to-ceiling windows showcase the picturesque riverside view of the Bund. At the entrance stood a young waitress in uniform. Seeing Wang Chen holding Xinxingya’s hand, her eyes lit up and she enthusiastically approached. Them, asking, hello, do you have a reservation? My last name is Wang. Upon hearing this, the waitress immediately checked the records. Hello, Mr. Wang, you have reserved a windowside view at our lunette by Amanda, please follow me. The waitress said. The two then followed her to a windowside table. Take a look and see what you’d like to eat. Wang Chen picked up the menu, browsing through the dishes, casually ordering a few signature items before pushing the menu in front of Shen Xingya. The dishes here were relatively expensive, and Shen Xingya had never eaten here before, so she didn’t know what to order at first. She could only choose a few that looked good based on the menu’s recommendations. Since he had to drive, Wang Chen didn’t order any wine. As the dishes came one after another, the waitress introduced, Hello, Mr. Wang, here are the dishes you ordered, please enjoy, and we hope you like them. As each meticulously prepared dish was served like. A work of art, the air in the restaurant seemed to be infused with a tantalizing aroma. Red heart egg with ham and black truffle. Seven-day aged squab. Wellington steak with foie gras and caviar. Charcoal grilled aged sea base. The main dish was North Arctic Deep Sea King Crab Meat Risotto. Exquisite dishes were presented before Wang Chan and Xinxingya. The presentation was meticulous and every detail showcased the restaurant’s care and refinement. The taste. Of this restaurant is quite good, Wang Chen cleared his throat lightly, breaking the somewhat awkward atmosphere, Xinxingya nodded slightly and replied, yes, the environment is very elegant, the view outside is nice, and the music is quite soothing. I saw many people recommending this restaurant online, so I thought I’d bring you here to try it, Wang Chen said, looking at Xinxingya. It’s really nice, you have a good eye, Xinxingya smiled. You should try this black truffle. The aroma is particularly rich. By the way, do you have a flight tomorrow? Wang Chen asked with a smile. Yes, I have to go back to work tomorrow, Xinxingya said, and a hint of disappointment flashed in her originally bright eyes, causing her to pause with her utensils. Do you fly regularly to Rong province? Yes, I only fly the route from Rong province to the magic city, Wangqian said, using a serving spoon to scoop some black truffle onto Xinxingya’s plate. From your accent, you must be from Jincheng too. Yes, my family is local to Jincheng, but we don’t live in the city center, Xinxingya said while eating, the delicious food making her cheeks puff out. Her greedy appearance made Wangqian smile slightly. and say, then we should have plenty of opportunities to meet in the future. Wang Chen didn’t continue the conversation, focusing instead on filling his stomach. The food at this restaurant was indeed quite good. They spent over an hour having their meal. Sir, your total comes to 5,888 yuan. How would you like to pay? Card, Wang Chen said, pulling out his bank card. Xin Xinya exclaimed that it was outrageous, but Wang Chen thought nothing of it. After all, with the restaurant’s location, the prices couldn’t be low. After paying the bill, the two stood up to leave the restaurant. The afternoon sun gently bathed the streets of the bun. Wang Chen suggested taking a walk along the bun to digest, and Shen. Xingya readily agreed. The river sparkled with light and boats moved back and forth. Across the river, the most prosperous area of the magic city was filled with towering skyscrapers, creating a magnificent modern scene. Handsome brother, I.A. Bokeh of flowers for the pretty sister, at that moment, a little girl tugged at Wang Chen’s pants. The girl looked about 6 or 7 years old, with big eyes and an especially cute appearance. What a cute little girl. What’s your name, and how? Old are you? Xinxingya bent down and smiled. My name is Meng Meng. I’m 7 years old this year. Can the big sister buy me a bouquet of flowers? Meng Meng said earnestly. My mom is sick, and I want to earn money for her medicine. 1. Chen was taken aback. This little girl was dressed neatly, her clothes exquisite and cute, and she didn’t look like a child from a poor family. Where’s your dad? Why isn’t he with you? Dad is over there being a bear, Meng Meng said happily, bouncing and calling out for her dad. Meng Meng, wait for me, don’t run too far. Just then, a young man dressed in a bear costume, holding a flower balloon, ran over. Sorry for the trouble, this child has been lively since she was little, and. She insisted on coming with me while I work part-time, the young man said, taking off his headpiece and scratching his head apologetically. It’s fine, the little girl is very cute, Wang Chen smiled and asked, if you don’t mind me asking. What happened to the little girl’s mother? Um, there’s nothing I can’t say. Originally, I was in a young romance with her mother, and we got married quite early. Her family is from the Magic City and looks down on me, a poor guy from out of town, and has always opposed us being together. After we finally got married and had a child, Yen Zi developed heart disease and needs a valve replacement. The young man looked at Meng Meng with affection and said to Wang Chen, You don’t. Look like you’re short on money, why are you buying flowers on the street? To be honest, my name is Li Kai. I used to work at a financial company nearby, and my income was barely okay. But before the new year, my father-in -law fell seriously. Ill, and now money is indeed a bit tight. Yenzi’s surgery still lacks 300,000. Yenzi’s condition cannot be delayed any longer. The doctor has issued an emergency notice, and I really can’t do anything about it. I spend all. My spare time working part-time, even during my lunch break at work, I come out to sell flowers. Isn’t it just to earn a little more, so that there’s a bit more hope for Yenzi? After Li Kai finished speaking, a look of pain appeared on his. Face. Then give me a flower. How much? Wang Chen thought for a moment after hearing this and said to Li Kai, where’s the QR code? Where do I scan? Thank you. 10 yuan each. Li Kai showed a grateful expression as he took out the QR code. He had on him. Ding, Faixin has credited 300,000 yuan. Wang Chen took out his phone and transferred 300,000 yuan into the QR code. P.S. Don’t ask why the QR code can transfer large amounts, just think of it as a parallel world. Ha? Did you transfer the wrong amount? This flower only costs 10 yuan. It’s fine, it’s 300,000, just take it. Meng Meng is still young and needs her mother. A childhood without a mother is incomplete. Such. A cute Meng Meng, you must always be happy in the future. Wang Chen said as he gently touched Meng Meng’s little face, smiling. The little one looked at Wang Chen with a dazed expression, curious about why this handsome brother was touching. Horror. This is too much, I can’t accept it. Li Kai’s face showed a conflicted expression. He was somewhat reluctant to part with this 300,000 yuan. With this money, he could afford the surgery for Yen Zi. he wouldn’t lose the love of his life. Meng Meng wouldn’t be without her mother. But, do I look like someone who lacks money? To me, money is just a string of numbers. 300,000 can save a life and I think that’s worth it. Look at that McLaren P1. Over there, worth over 20 million, just bought yesterday. So just accept it. This really isn’t much money for me. Wang Chin said as he pointed to the McLaren P1 parked by the roadside. Then, he gently shook his wrist, revealing the Patek. Philippe Starry Skywatch on his wrist. Thank you. Thank you. Li Kai’s eyes instantly became moist, tears swirling in his eyes. His voice became hoarse with excitement, tinged with a hint of choking. He stepped forward, suddenly knelt down, and tightly grasped Wang Chen’s hand, saying, Can I have your name? I will repay you in the future, and I will return the money, just need some time. Woo woo. Just as he was speaking, Li Kai suddenly burst into tears. Who says men don’t shed tears? Easily? They just haven’t reached the point of sorrow. Since ancient times, heroes have often been righteous, but they just haven’t encountered the bitter words of sadness. Shedding tears doesn’t mean one isn’t a man. The pressure of this. Time has made it hard for him to breathe. Before the new year, his father-in-law fell ill and the treatment cost over a million, leaving him in debt to relatives and friends for hundreds of thousands. After the new year, Yen Zi also fell ill. Coming from a rural background, he had borrowed from everyone he could, yet still fell short of money. It was truly helpless. Money is a bastard, it can make a tall man kneel. Daddy, what’s wrong? Don’t cry. Woo woo at this moment, Meng Meng. saw her father crying and started to cry too, attracting the attention of passersby around the bond. My name is Wang Chen, I will remember you. Let’s meet again if we have the chance. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and smiled. After saying this, he turned and continued walking forward, holding Xinxingya’s hand. Meng Meng, quickly thank your brother, mommy is saved. Wu Wu. Thank you, brother. Meng Meng was still crying but instinctively expressed her gratitude, not quite understanding. What had just happened? You looked so handsome just now. Xinxingya let Wang Chen hold her hand obediently, smiling. Wasn’t I handsome before? Wang Chen smiled as he handed the flowers to Xinxingya. He he, you were handsome before, but now you’re even more handsome. Xinxingya lowered her head to smell the flowers, then turned to look at Wang Chen, her eyes sparkling with charm. She didn’t expect Wang Chen to transfer 300,000 to the little girl’s father. For Wang Chen, 300,000 might not be much at all, but for ordinary people, it is an astronomical figure, something that would take 5, even 10, or 20 years to save up. Because with this 300,000, Meng Meng might not lose her mother, and Li Kai might not lose his wife. Moreover, the kind-hearted Wang Chen made Xing Xingya’s heart flutter even more. She stole a glance at Wang Chen, and a blush gradually appeared on her face. She was moved. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 300,000 yuan, and a double cashback of 600 ,000 yuan is granted. Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning 30 system points. Wang Chen heard the system’s announcement. Although. The 300,000 he just donated came back, he felt that it was not as joyful as helping those in need. The rich young masters indulge in extravagance and excess, letting wealth flow freely amidst the neon lights and wine. Meanwhile, the impoverished often struggle with a lack of even a single coin. Even with grand ambitions, it is difficult to realize one’s aspirations, as if trapped like a beast, sighing helplessly. Wang Chen seemed to have found some direction in life. His money would only multiply as he spent it. So, why not do something more meaningful for this country and its people? The history of Hua Gua and the earth in his past life had hardly changed, the people here still flowed with the blood of Yen. And Huang, having experienced a century of vicissitudes and struggles, still bearing the scars of a painful past. Of course, that was not now. After all, he was still just a college student. And he had an appointment with the beauty. In front of him, the Bund was bustling with people, with visitors from all over the world coming to admire the charm of the magic city. The Bund boasted numerous, uniquely styled European historical buildings and across the river stood the modern skyscrapers of the Pudong Nu area. They were lined up like scales. Boats traversed the river, with leisurely cruise ships sailing alongside busy cargo ships, and the river breeze was refreshing, lifting one’s spirits. Aren’t you my tour? Guide? We can’t just wander around here all afternoon, Wangchen said lightly. Well, I often come to the Magic City, but I haven’t really enjoyed it. The only places I know are Disney and the Oriental Pearl Tower, the more famous spots. Xinxingya replied somewhat awkwardly. Then let’s go to Disney. I think all girls like it, Wangchen smiled. Ah, but it’s not just for you to have fun, going to Disney might not be appropriate. It’s decided then. Wang Chen said, taking Xinxingya’s hand and walking away. It’s a pleasant decision. Wang Chen said, holding Xinxingya’s hand and striding forward. Xinxingya’s face turned slightly red, but she obediently let him lead her. Wang Chen then took out his phone. He dialed the number of the private butler assigned to him by the hotel, Butler Lin. On the other end, Butler Lin’s respectful and professional voice soon came through. Mr. Wang, how may I assist you? Please help me order two VIP tickets for. Disney, Wang Chen said straightforwardly. Butler Lin immediately responded respectfully, All right, Mr. Wang, the Bulgari private butler service will surely satisfy you. I will handle the details regarding the Disney tickets promptly. The Bulgari private butler service can take care of many things, such as transportation or any privileged requests, they are the right choice for that. General matters can be arranged easily. Before long, at the Disney Town parking lot, Wang Chen got out. Of the car, holding Xinxingya’s hand. At this moment, the tour guide arranged by Butler Lin had already been waiting for a long time. She appeared to be a girl in her 20s, likely a college student working part-time. She looked fresh and sweet, with her hair tied up in a bun, wearing a Disney tour guide uniform. Hello, Mr. Wang, I am your tour guide for today, Yang Zichin, you can just call me Xiaoyang. The young guide introduced herself very professionally, exuding the unique vitality of youth. You have ordered our Disney 8888 double enjoyment tickets, which allow you to enjoy all attractions without waiting in line. I will take you both there. Okay, I’m mainly here to have fun with my girlfriend. Do you have any? Recommended activities? Wang Chen nodded slightly. Xinxingye did not refute, her face flushed, quietly staying behind Wang Chen. The entrance to Disney was adorned with various cartoon characters, such as Snow White, Donald Duck, and Judy. Tourists surged in from all directions like a tide, colorful balloons floated in the air, and children bounced around excitedly, occasionally stopping to take photos in front of the cartoon character statues. I’ll take you in first. Carousel is more suitable for couples, the tour guide Xiaoyang said with a smile. The carousel is one of Disney’s classic attractions, and with the music playing, it feels like being in a dreamy fairy tale world, especially perfect for couples to experience. Moreover, we can get stamps at each attraction we visit, which is a popular way for many young people to collect memories. As he spoke, the tour guide handed over two maps with detailed descriptions of the attractions. At this moment, there were still quite a few people in the park, most of whom were there with young children. The ticket entrance had a long line, but fortunately, with the Disney VIP tickets, they didn’t have to waste time waiting. Arriving in front of. The carousel, Xinxingya’s eyes instantly lit up. Wow, it’s so beautiful. Looking at the exquisite wooden horses and the dazzling lights, Xinxingya couldn’t help but exclaimed softly. Do you like it? We’ll ride it together in a bit, Wang. Xin said gently, squeezing her hand as he watched her excitement. Yes, I like it, Xinxingya nodded vigorously. Under Xiaoyang’s arrangement, they smoothly boarded the next carousel without waiting in line. He he he. as the carousel began. To turn slowly, Xinxingya let out a bell-like laugh. Accompanied by the music, the colorful horses rose and fell in a circle. Wang Xin sat behind Xinxingya, wrapping his arms around her waist, quietly observing the surroundings. Besides, the children, most of the riders on the carousel were young people. Indeed, this was a suitable activity for college students, extreme roller coasters and spinning motorcycles felt too childish. Next, I’ll take you to experience Frozen. The Scenery there is simply breathtaking, as if the ice kingdom from the movie has been brought to life, you will be deeply impressed, Xiao Yang said enthusiastically right after they got off the carousel. I’ve always loved Frozen so much, I can’t wait to experience it, Xinxingya said, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. Alright, let’s hurry up and go, go go go, Wang Chen smiled. Following the tour guide, they boarded a special shuttle bus, and soon they arrived at the Frozen venue. The realistic ice and snow scene instantly captured Wang Chen and Xinxingya’s attention. Wang Chen, look, it’s just like in the movie, it’s amazing. Xinxingya tightly grasped Wang Chen’s hand, her expression very excited. Every girl has a princess dream, and she was no exception. It is indeed stunning, but in my heart, you are even more beautiful than Elsa, Wang Chen said, looking directly at Xinxingya. Xinxingya dared not meet his gaze, her cheeks growing even. Redder. The entire Frozen performance lasted about 18 minutes, with artificial snow falling throughout to enhance the atmosphere. Xinxingya watched with excitement, constantly taking photos and occasionally bursting into happy laughter. Wang Chen, on the other hand, felt drowsy, not very interested. They played and took photos along the way, experiencing various attractions. After spending most of the day there, the enthusiastic tour guide Xiaoyang began recommending Disney’s delicious snacks, fish and chips, Barbosa’s barbecued pork ribs rice, seafood barbecue platter, Mickey-shaped ice cream, corn cheese sticks, fish balls. Whatever Xinxingya wanted to eat, they bought one by one.I in the And, the total expenditure was 2,865 yuan, and Wang Chen was only three-tenths full. Ever since he acquired the extreme physique trait, his appetite had greatly increased, this was just to whet his appetite. In the evening, the sky was painted. A brilliant orange-red, like a stunning painting. Wang Chen and Xinxingya stepped into the cabin of the Disney ferris wheel. As the ferris wheel slowly ascended, Xinxingya gently leaned on Wang Chen’s shoulder and softly said, I’m really happy today, thank you for bringing me here. I will always remember this day. As long as you’re happy, that’s enough, Wang Chen said, gently wrapping his arm around her. Under her gaze, he lowered his head and slowly leaned closer to her. What, what does he want? Is he going to kiss me? Should I resist? Xin Xingya felt a bit flustered and at a loss, only able to tightly shut her eyes. Her mind was in chaos, her head buzzing. Xingya, be my girlfriend, and you’ll be my princess. From now on. Um, I agree in principle. What do you mean by in principle? Wang Chen asked, puzzled. Let’s see how you perform later. Hee hee. Xinxinya playfully looked at Wang Chen and started to laugh. In fact, she had already decided. To agree to Wang Chen’s request, it was just that her modesty as a girl made her reluctant to accept so quickly. She was also afraid that Wang Chen would think she was an easy girl and worried he might be disappointed, so she said something. So ambiguous. At 8 o’clock in the evening, inside the Peace Hotel in Magic City, the magnificent chandelier cast a soft light, reflecting on the marble floor. The lobby’s decor was filled with art deco style, with geometric patterns that. or simple and smooth, perfectly blending retro and modern fashion. The old photographs on the walls told the stories of what had happened here. When in Magic City, one must experience the Peace Hotel. Otherwise, it would be a wasted trip. Wang Chen and Xin Xinya, guided by the waiter, arrived at their reserved table. The dishes at the Peace Hotel are renowned for their exquisite culinary skills and high-quality ingredients. Since they had to drive, they didn’t order any wine. Wang Chen only ordered a few signature dishes. Xinya, you probably haven’t eaten here before, right? Try the braised pork, I’ve heard it’s exceptional. Wang Xin picked up a piece of braised pork and placed it in her bowl. Each piece of. This braised pork was carefully selected and cooked, with a bright red color, rich but not greasy, melting in the mouth. Of course, the price was also quite steep. I’ve never been here, this isn’t a place for a little flight attendant like me. Hmm, it’s really delicious, rich but not greasy. Xin Xinya said with a satisfied smile. Ha, if it’s good, we should come here often. Don’t. It’s fine to eat here occasionally, but if we come too often, my stomach from Jincheng can’t. handle it true by the way send a message to your sisters in a bit let’s meet at master bar xin xin ya was momentarily stunned and didn’t come to her senses right away what are you dawdling for send the message didn’t you promise your sisters you’d treat them tonight they’ll get ready and head out we can go after we finish eating it should be about the right time wang chen said casually bribing xin xin ya’s friends to go to the bar was a small expense for him with their support there might be surprises tonight Moreover, the master bar in Magic City is reputed to be the only top nightclub in Asia with over 3,000 spotlights. It is said that the electricity bill for one night can reach hundreds of thousands. The ultimate light show has attracted social celebrities and internet influencers to check in. The wealthy ladies and socialites of Magic City love to go there. There are even rumors that Principal Wang Sikong has invested in this bar. Wang Chen was looking forward to it, he had never experienced such things in his previous life. They are just making a fuss, they might not go. How about we choose another bar, something cheaper? Xinxingya hesitated, after all, Master Bar is notoriously high-priced. Just send them the address directly, and when they arrive, have them mention my name. Hey, Butler Lin, could you please help me book a booth at Master Bar? Wang Xin said as he took out his phone and dialed Butler Lin’s number. Alright, Mr. Wang, do you have any specific requirements for the booth location? Butler Lin’s respectful voice came through the phone. I want the best spot, a bit larger if possible. Okay, I’ll arrange that for you right. Away. Wang Chen hung up and continued eating. Before long, he received a message from butler Lin saying everything was set. Xin Xingya felt a bit embarrassed, after all, it was just a joke from her sisters that led Wang Chen to arrange a night. Out at Master Bar. She sent the bar’s location to their sister group chat, which immediately sparked a flurry of excitement. It’s actually Master Bar. I heard the minimum spend there is several thousand. Mr. Wang is so generous. Xingya’s boyfriend is so generous. Thanks, Xingya, otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to go in and spend. What kind of status does Mr. Wang have? Can he even afford the minimum spend? If you don’t have at least a hundred thousand tonight, you might not even get. In. I wonder if we might run into Wang Sikong. I heard he often comes to this bar and has invested in it. Maybe we could even see some celebrities. Ah. I’m so envious that Xingya found a rich and handsome boyfriend. I want one too. The group chat was instantly flooded with messages. Xin Xingya couldn’t keep up with all the discussions. This time, she didn’t bother to refute the identity of being his girlfriend. She glanced at Wang Chen, who was eating, and her vanity was greatly satisfied. Today, on their date, she witnessed his kind and gentle side, as well as his strength. What occupied her mind the most now was not just being his girlfriend, but how to become a wealthy lady. After dinner, Wang Chen went to the cashier to settle the bill. Another 4,920 yuan spent. He bought some cigarettes and alcohol at a convenience store at the entrance, spending 100,000. He also withdrew 50,000 in cash from the bank, just in case, as bars can be quite chaotic. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 100,000 yuan, doubling the cashback to 200,000. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 10 system points. Huagua Industrial and Commercial. Bank reminds you, your account 2846 has received 4 ,920 yuan with a balance of 1,588 ,266,819 yuan. Huagua Industrial and Commercial Bank reminds you, your account 2846 has received 100,000 yuan, with a balance of 1,588,366,819 yuan .1. Chen glanced at the balance, turned, and took Xinxingya’s hand, their fingers intertwined as they walked towards the parking lot. The bright moon hung high, and the stars sparkled. The entire magic city was enveloped in colorful neon lights. The night view of the Bund was particularly enchanting. Wang Chen drove a yellow McLaren P1, the car gliding through traffic like a flash of yellow lightning. His right hand never left Xinxing Ye’s smooth thigh. After just over 10 minutes of driving, they arrived at the entrance of Master Bar. As the top bar in all of Asia, it could only be described as a place of dazzling lights and intoxicating pleasures. Whether it was working professionals or students and celebrities, everyone wanted to come here to unwind. At this moment, the bar entrance was already packed with people. Various luxury cars were parked outside, with models like Mercedes, BMW, and Land Rover being common sights. There were also some luxury supercars like Porsche, McLaren, and Lamborghini, but they were few and mostly entry -level models. Wang Chen’s McLaren P1 was undoubtedly the star of the show. He looked at the parking lot in front of the bar. There were hardly any good spots available. Wang Chen frowned, this was clearly a challenge for him as a newcomer. His arrival had obviously caused a stir. The cool body of the McLaren P1 attracted the attention of most people present. He waved to the security guard directing traffic at the bar entrance. Boss, is there something you need? The security guard, who had been directing traffic, glanced at Wang Chen’s McLaren and walked over. Wang Chen took out a thousand yuan from the car and stuffed the money and the keys into the guard’s. Hand, could you please help me park the car? This money is for you. Places like bars are filled with all sorts of people, and to make things easier and avoid trouble, he had specifically withdrawn some cash before coming. After all, giving. A little something helps smooth the way. This is a traditional custom in Hua Gua. The guard looked at the stack of bright red Hua Xia coins and his face immediately broke into a smile as he nodded respectfully, saying, boss, have fun. Don’t worry. Just park the car here, and I guarantee no one will scratch it. Saying this, he directly brought over several plastic barriers and placed them around the car. Ah, great. You’ve got good eyes, when I have the chance, I’ll have someone. Wash my car. Wang Xin saw that the guard was in his 20s and thought he was quite capable, laughing heartily. The guard’s eyes lit up and he quickly replied, don’t worry, boss, I’ll make sure it’s spotless by the time you come out. Wang Chen smiled slightly and walked in with Xinxingya. Just as they were about to enter, they could hear the pulsating music coming from inside. The young guard felt secretly pleased, today he had encountered a benefactor, giving a thousand. Just to park a car, how much would he give for a car wash? It certainly wouldn’t be less than a thousand. The young guard watched Wang Chen and Xinxingya enter the bar and signaled the cleaning staff to bring towels to prepare for the car wash. Then he pressed the earpiece clip to his ear and said, manager, a couple just came in at the entrance, the guy is driving a McLaren P1 and wearing a Patek Philippe. He looks like a wealthy young master. Could, report any developments. Manager Lang, who was patrolling the bar, heard his subordinates report and hurried to the entrance to greet Wang Chan and his companion. Hello, sir, I am the manager here, Long Wei Jun. Do you have a reservation? Manager Lang saw Wang Chan and his companion from a distance and approached them with a warm smile. Yes, my last name is Wang. He then provided the last digits of his phone number. Manager Leng immediately opened his tablet to check and then exclaimed in surprise, you are Mr. Wang? He quickly nodded and bowed, his face full of smiles, saying, Mr. Wang, please follow me, your private booth has been prepared for you. I’ll take you there right away. Okay. The nightclub was bustling, the air thick with a mingling sense of smoke, alcohol, and perfume, particularly overwhelming for someone visiting for the first time. The lights were dazzling and painful to the eyes. Let’s get hyped up, scream. The deafening sound of a DJ singing and dancing, filled the air. The expressions of the men and women below were filled with passion and fervor, the scent of hormones enveloping the entire nightclub. It was 10 o’clock at night. Ordinary people would be at home playing on their phones, getting ready to rest. For the bar, this was just the beginning, yet the venue was already packed to capacity. There were no empty seats. Manager Lang respectfully led the way, and although Wang Chin didn’t understand why the manager was so enthusiastic, he had a rough idea. It must be due to the connection with the Bulgari Hotel and the influence of the McLaren P1 parked at the entrance. All these factors combined made Manager Ling treat them this way. They walked all the way to the beverage area. The bartenders were busy mixing various drinks behind the bar and the display shelves were filled with a dazzling array of bottles shining in the light. He had never seen such a variety of drinks. Manager Ling led the two of them through the beverage hall and dance floor to the reserved spot. The minimum consumption for the dance floor booth was 100,000. He smiled at Wang Chen and said, Mr. Wang, this is your reserved booth number 01, the best booth in, the entire dance floor, with a wide view right across from the stage. Wang Chen looked at the spacious booth marked 01, knowing it could easily accommodate 10 or so people. Many envious glances were cast from the dance floor below.A few girls, who often hang out in nightclubs stared at Wang Chen. If it weren’t for Xinxingya standing next to him, they would have approached him long ago. As regulars in hotels, they had sharp eyes, besides the private booth with a minimum spend of one. 100,000, they also noticed the Patek Philippe watch on Wang Chen’s wrist. They immediately recognized the Patek Philippe Starry Sky 6104 series, which had a price tag of over 4 million. Moreover, Wang Chen was young and handsome. Just their type. Wang Chen looked up and saw the DJ performance stage right in front of him, occupying the best view. On stage, a girl dressed in traditional attire was performing a fiery dance, eliciting screams from the audience below. By the way, we have invited the internet celebrity Little Dragon Cat with 10 million fans to DJ live today. If you need anything, just let me know, manager Leng winked, revealing an expression that any man would understand, as he handed over the drink. Menu. Mr. Wang, here’s the drink menu. Please take a look at what you’d like. Wang Chen glanced at the drink list. It featured the 188, 888 Spada Dragon set, as well as even more expensive champagne packages. Having only heard of Spada, Wang Chen didn’t know if the other drinks were good, but with Spada’s reputation, it should be decent. Wang Chen then said to manager Leng, let’s start with three sets of the Dragon set. Alright, Mr. Wang, I’ll arrange that for you right. Away. Manager Leng’s face lit up with surprise as he hurried to make arrangements. He then directed a few waiters to be on standby at the booth. Isn’t that too much? We won’t finish all that alcohol. My sisters can’t drink much, and it’s a bit. Too expensive, Xinxingya said anxiously to Wang Chen upon seeing him order so much. My sisters rarely go to bars, and this is my first time, I really can’t drink that much. It’s fine, I’m also here for the first time. Let’s just have. Fun, if we can’t finish it later, we can leave it here, Wang Chen reassured her. He knew that bars allowed you to store drinks, so he wasn’t worried about wasting any. Besides, spending hundreds of thousands on drinks was no big deal for him. Xin Xingyao was a bit surprised. Someone of Wang Chen’s status was actually visiting a bar for the first time? He didn’t seem to be lying, which made her curious about his family background. Are wealthy families that strict with their children? At that moment, manager Leng approached Wang Chen again, leaning in to whisper, a few girls are outside looking for you. Wang Chin nodded and said, they’re all my friends, please let them in. Okay. After saying that, manager Leng spoke a few words into his earpiece. Soon, Wang Chin saw Li Na leading two other flight attendants into the bar. Their arrival attracted a lot of attention in the nightclub. After all, as flight attendants, even if they weren’t as beautiful as Shen, Xingya, they were at least on the same level. If posted online, they would all be considered goddess level figures. They were quickly led to the booth by the dance floor. Mr. Wang, your friends have arrived. I’ll take my leave now, just call me. If you need anything, manager Leng said, giving a knowing glance to the waiters by the booth before leaving. Li Na stepped forward and smiled at Wang Chen. Huh, Wang Chen, it’s great to see you again. You really invited us out to have fun. It’s nothing, you’re Qingya’s friends, it’s the least I could do, Wang Chen replied. Please, sit down, don’t just stand there. Hearing this, Li Na was the first to sit down, and the others quickly followed suit. You three still don’t know. Each other’s names? Wang Chen asked the other three flight attendants. I’m Zhou Jing, you can just call me Jingjing. I’m Xiao Xiao, you can also call me Xiao Xiao. I’m Chen Mengiao. Wang Chen couldn’t help but glance a bit longer at Xiao. Xiao, she was quite tall, not small at all. Jingjing asked Wang Chen, do you come here often? I noticed the marketing guy who brought us here called him manager. Xiao Xiao also curiously added, yeah, that manager was really nice to you just. Now. Chen Mengiao didn’t say anything, but her gaze towards Xin Xinya was filled with a hint of envy. Suddenly, all the lights in the bar dimmed and the music softened. The crowd, who were dancing with enthusiasm, were left bewildered. What’s going on? We were just getting into it, someone shouted loudly. Bang! Bang bang! Bang bang bang! Just a momentary pause and then a wave of explosive sounds suddenly erupted among the crowd. As the rhythm of the sound wave quickened, in the pitch black nightclub, a beam of light slowly emerged from the bars backstage. Some regulars who frequented nightclubs immediately understood that a big shot had ordered an expensive drink. Bang! As the lights turned back on, aloud. Explosion echoed above the dance floor and colorful confetti filled the air. At that moment, the host in the center of the dance floor appeared before everyone. The bar’s massive LED screen also displayed a video of booth 01, showing Wang Chen, and others. The numbers 566, 666 on the screen were particularly eye-catching. The line of servers, illuminated by the winding lights, weaved through the dance floor and finally stood in a row before Wang Chen. 18 girls, dressed brightly, each holding a box of wine, bowed at a 90-degree angle in front of several people while loudly proclaiming, Thank you, Mr. Wang, for your generous support of our master bar. Wishing Mr. Wang smooth sailing and abundant wealth. The stage. Host also said, Dear esteemed guests, good evening. Tonight, we are very honored to open these three sets of Divine Dragon Packages for the guests of Booth 01. Let us witness this luxurious moment together. Once again, we thank all the esteemed guests for coming. We hope the Divine Dragon Package brings you wonderful memories. Let us continue to enjoy this marvelous night and wish everyone a great time and plenty to drink. Let’s rock this night together. Scream, the hosts. Words were highly provocative. His booming voice reached everyone’s ears, making all those in the dance floor aware of the extravagant spending at booth 01. Wow. The crowd erupted in astonishment, and the flight attendant sitting next to Wang Chan had a change in her expression. Looking again at Xinxingya, her gaze was filled with envy, but also some other emotions. Three sets of Divine Dragon packages? How much money does one need to have such a status? For the flight attendants. Present, they often encountered many rich second-generation individuals, but these rich kids were usually under their family’s complete control. They hardly had any money on them. Some rich kids couldn’t even afford to fill their cars with gas when going out. Yet Wang Chen not only drove a McLaren P1 but was also so generous. This proved that Wang Chen’s family background was exceptionally good. Several of them began to consider how to approach Wang Chen, but with Xinxingya present, it was awkward to talk to him too much. At that moment, manager Lange approached, signaling with his eyes. The 18 young ladies neatly placed the wine boxes on the table. Mr. Wang, should we open all these bottles? Manager Leng asked. With a beaming smile. As a manager, he knew the value of big clients too well, ensuring the guests had a good time was his job. The most important thing for a bar is to retain customers, especially big clients. Wang Chen glanced at manager Leng. And had to admit that this person was quite discerning, casually saying, open them all. Then I won’t disturb you any further, Mr. Wang. After saying that, he stepped back, leaving the servers to open the bottles one by one. Li Na looked at the numerous bottles of wine in front of her and secretly clicked her tongue. So much wine, it would be such a waste if we can’t finish it all. Wang Chen smiled and said, we’re here to have fun, don’t worry about the value of the wine. Hearing this, Li Na picked up a glass of wine and toasted Wang Chen, loudly saying, that I won’t be polite. I’ll toast to young master Wang first. Thank you for your hospitality, young master Wang. After saying that, she downed the drink and won. Go. The other sisters stood up one by one, simultaneously saying thank you, young master Wang. Wang Chin saw this and could only raise his glass, drinking with them. After a glass of champagne went down, Wang Chin felt it was quite ordinary, a set of Shenlong attire selling for $188,000 was indeed expensive. Don’t just drink with me, you all drink freely. If it’s not enough, order more, Wang Chin said as he watched Zhou Jing lift her glass again, looking at him. Then let’s toast. To Qingya. If it weren’t for Xingya, we wouldn’t be able to drink such expensive wine.” Zhou Jing turned to Xin Xingya and said. Li Na poured herself another glass, grinning mischievously. Thanks, Xingya. Chen Mengiao and Xiao Xiao also raised their glasses simultaneously. No need, no need, Xin Xingya quickly waved her hand, feeling a bit shy. However, she ultimately clinked glasses with them. After a glass of champagne, a slight blush appeared on Xin Xingya’s face. Under the dim lights of the bar, she looked even more alluring. Wang Chen watched them drink with a smile, and his left hand naturally reached over to wrap around Xin Xin Ye’s waist. Feeling Wang Chen’s little gesture, Xin Xin Ye leaned into his embrace. Brother Wang Chen, let me toast you with a glass, Xin Xin Ye said, her eyes sparkling with flirtation. Ah, alright, I have to drink when Xin Ye toasts, Wang Chen laughed, downing the champagne in his glass. Xin Xin Ye set down her glass, her eyes hazy, and naturally wrapped her arms around Wang Chen’s arm. Perhaps under the influence of alcohol, she felt Wang Chen’s masculinity even more. Her entire body was almost glued to Wang Chan, her two ample curves pressing tightly against his arm. She secretly vowed to hold on to such an excellent man tightly. She was well aware of her advantages. Her looks and figure were her bargaining chips. Not to mention other women, even the few plastic sisters in front of her would, likely have their eyes on Wang Chan. Strands of hair fell onto Wang Chan’s face, causing a slight itch. The other sisters looked at Wang Chan and Shinxingya, some happy for her, while others were envious. These flight attendants had wasted there. Prime youth on flying, aside from their faces, there was little else to commend. The best outcome in life was to find a rich man to marry, even if he was older. Otherwise, when they grew old and unattractive, it would be difficult to find someone to marry. Young Master Wang, you can’t just drink with Qingya and ignore us. I’ll toast you too, don’t refuse. Chen Mengiao took the initiative to step forward, her eyes flirtatious, sitting sideways next to Wang Chen. Alright, let’s all have a drink together, Wang Chen said with an inscrutable expression, unconsciously touching his pocket. Interesting. He suddenly understood why wealthy people liked to come to bars for fun. It wasn’t that the drinks here were particularly good, rather, in this environment, people’s vanity and competitive spirit would grow infinitely. Drunk on paper and gold, mesmerizing to the eyes, leading to moral decay. Of course, for Wang Chan, this was a good thing. He raised his glass, and, the champagne sparkled under the light, emitting a charming blow. He snapped back to reality, smiled faintly, and drank it all in one go. He discovered that with the enhancement of the extreme physique attribute, alcohol had no effect on him. at all, like drinking fruit juice. Inside the bar, the music was deafening and people in the dance floor swayed to the rhythm. Suddenly, a commotion erupted from below the stage, accompanied by increasingly loud crackling sounds. This immediately drew many people over to see the excitement. In the center of the crowd below the dance floor, a young man stood out remarkably. Dressed in luxurious designer clothes, his body was covered in logos like a starry sky, making it clear at a glance that he was either rich or noble. At this moment he was fiercely tugging at someone else. his flushed face was filled with anger and embarrassment and he kept shouting i want to see who stole my spotlight let go of me you jerk young master chen you’re drunk let me take you to rest manager lang said from behind tightly gripping young master chen’s arm sweating profusely his once tidy shirt was now soaked with sweat clinging tightly to his back he tried to bring this already crazed young master back to the private room hoping to quell the farce as quickly as possible a few of chen xiao’s underlings were also agitated threateningly glaring at manager lang what the hell are you chen xiao Calls you manager out of respect for your boss, and you really think you’re something? Chen Mingxian joined in the shouting, his voice hoarse and high-pitched from the alcohol. Exactly, what are you? I just came over for a drink and to make. A friend, why are you pulling me? Our Chen Xiao is a prominent figure in Modu, don’t be ungrateful. With that, with the help of his subordinates, Chen Xiao forcefully broke free from manager Leng’s grasp. He stumbled a few steps and rushed. Over to Wang Chen’s booth. His name was Chen Mingxian, a regular at Master Bar. Since the bar opened, the millions spent on his consumption record were enough to prove he was one of the bigger clients here. Always the center of attention, upon seeing Wang Chen making such a scene, especially with beautiful companions at the booth, he became increasingly furious under the encouragement of his friends. As a notable figure in Modu, he was familiar with the various families in the city. Wang Chen? Just a local bumpkin from out of town. Manager Lange’s expression changed rapidly, alternating between green and white, realizing that trouble was brewing. Both individuals present were either rich or noble, he couldn’t afford any incidents. He quickly called for security, trying to control the situation while frantically pulling out his phone to report to his boss. Wang Chen was chatting happily with a few flight attendants nearby, initially thinking the commotion on. The dance floor would soon end, but unexpectedly, the other party had come to his booth. Hey girl, come drink with me. Chen Mingxian swaggered up to the booth, plopping down arrogantly. His words were directed at Chen Xingya, but his gaze intentionally flicked toward Wang Chen, the provocation unmistakable. Shen Xingya’s face showed clear disgust as she looked to Wang Chen for help. The others remained silent as this was Wang Chen’s reserved booth, his territory, the other parties. Behavior was a blatant provocation. They were curious about how Wang Chen would handle it. Wang Chen looked at Manager Lang and asked, who is this? Wang Xiao, this is Chen Mingxian, Chen Xiao, the only son of the Chen family. Manager Lang hurriedly stepped forward, wearing a fawning smile, but his eyes were filled with pleading, hoping Wang Chen would avoid conflict with Chen Mingxian. This little bar manager couldn’t handle such trouble. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at Chen Mingxian with a half smile, Chen Xiao, drinking should be mutual, being so direct might not be appropriate. Chen Mingxian snorted coldly, kid, don’t play dumb here. I just wanna have a drink with this girl, what’s it to you? Wang Chen gently shook his head, that’s a rather uninteresting thing to say. However, since Chen Xiao is so interested, I, Wang Chen, can’t spoil your fun. How about this, it’s just drinking, let’s have a contest. Whoever falls first loses. and the loser rolls out of here to the door, how about that? Chen Ningxuan’s eyes lit up at the suggestion. He was no stranger to drinking games and wasn’t afraid of this outsider, so he readily replied, alright, but don’t come crying for. Mercy later. So, how do we drink? Wangqian said casually, one cup each, whoever falls first loses, how about that? Chen Ningxian looked at Wangqian provocatively, good. Manager Lang, bring out some stronger liquor, champagne isn’t. Interesting. Uh, alright, just a moment. Hearing this, manager Lang immediately spoke a few words into his earpiece and upon his signal, he agreed to Chen Mingxuan’s request. Soon, the waiter quickly brought over bottles of strong liquor’s chin. Mingxuan raised his glass and tilted his head back, pouring the liquor down his throat, the drink trickling down the corner of his mouth and soaking his expensive collar. After finishing one glass, he slammed the cup down on the table with a show of bravado. It’s your turn. Wang Chen, however, remained unhurried, a faint smile playing on his lips as he slowly lifted his glass and downed it in one go, as if savoring a fine wine rather than this fiery spirit. After six rounds, Chen, Mingxuan’s steps began to sway, and his gaze grew hazy, yet he still held on stubbornly, muttering, come on, I’m not drunk yet. Manager Lange expressed his concern, young master Chen, maybe you should stop drinking. But Wang Chen remained unfazed, as if this strong liquor was nothing more than plain water to him. After another round, Chen Mingxian finally couldn’t hold it in any longer and let out a while as he vomited, the mess splattering on the ground and releasing a pungent odor. Embarrassed and furious, Chen Mingxian, who considered himself a person of dignity, felt humiliated in front of everyone, especially in front of this local bumpkin in his eyes. With his extreme physique, he was not afraid of drinking. Anyone. Who came would have to kneel. Wangqian held his glass, taking a delicate sip, and said lightly, Heh. With this drinking capacity, you should go sit at the kids’ table. Put. Li Na couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Chen Mingxian make a mess. The nearby flight attendants also wore amused expressions. Are you laughing at me? Chen Mingxian stepped closer, his face darkening as he fixed a fierce gaze on Li Na. With his noble status, the girls in the bar would usually fawn over him, treating him with utmost respect. Wang Chen’s mockery only fueled his anger, especially since he felt utterly humiliated in front of everyone. At this moment, his rage was at its peak. Li Na waved her hand, shaking her head, I just remembered. Something happy. You little slut. Chen Mingxuan was furious, glancing around before his gaze landed on Wang Chen. I’ll remember you, you local bumpkin who dares to humiliate me. Let me tell you, this matter is far from over. Wang Chen, right? I’ll make sure you can’t stay in the magic city. Seeing Chen Mingxuan’s furious demeanor, Li Na instinctively moved closer to Wang Chen, feeling a bit scared. Threatening me? Wang Chen laughed heartily, sitting in the booth and watching him like a clown. Wang Chen had a gentle temperament but that didn’t mean he was without temper. What are you pretending to be? You have to learn to show off like others, spending a little money and thinking everyone should cater to. You, with this drinking capacity, you dare to compete with me? Who gave you the courage? Wang Chen stood up, pointing at Chen Mingxuan’s nose and scolding, what do you think you are? You’re nothing, poor bastard. Wang Chen’s words struck. D, piercing Chen Mingxuan’s heart. His eyes instantly turned red. Although the Chen family was considered wealthy, they were still nouveau riche. In the magic city, where the rich gathered in social hierarchies were strict, they were often. looked down upon by established families due to their lack of heritage. The thing Chen Mingxian hated most was being told he had no money. He couldn’t bear this humiliation. Damn it. Chen Mingxian’s eyes reddened as he grabbed a bottle from the table, ready to smash it over Wang Chen’s head. However, the vigilant security team nearby would never give him the chance to harm anyone. Wang Chen felt a twinge of regret. He wanted to test his enhanced abilities from the extreme physique. Bang. Ah. The bottle shattered on the ground, the liquor gushing out, creating chaos at the scene. Chen Mingxian was also pinned down on the sofa by the security, firmly restrained. Let me go. Do you know who I am? Amidst Chen Mingxuan’s struggles, the scene descended into chaos. Let go of young Master Chen. If there’s an issue, you won’t be able to handle it. Let’s talk it out, just let young Master Chen go first. A few younger brothers blocked by security at the dance. Floor were anxiously pacing back and forth like ants on a hot pan. Panic and anxiety filled his face as his eyes fixed desperately on Chen Mingxian, who was pinned to the sofa, yet he felt utterly helpless. Wang Chen remained calm, picking up a tissue from the table to wipe the alcohol-soaked phone. He then stood up, looking down at Chen Mingxian from above. Why bother? I didn’t want to deal with someone like you, but you insisted on making a scene in front of me. I’m going to kill you. Ah, let go of me. Chen Mingxian’s eyes widened in fury as he struggled to rise from the sofa, but the security guards held him down firmly. Just wait. This isn’t over. I’ll make you regret coming to Magic City. Chen Mingxian had completely lost his sanity. Having grown up, he had never experienced such humiliation. I’ll wait for you. Wang Chin said expressionlessly, money? Connections? Or resources? Whatever you want to compete with, I’ll go all the way, I just hope. You won’t be like now, pinned down like a dog, only able to rage helplessly. Competing in money? Competing in background? He had plenty of that, not to mention the system, just his background alone. There were hardly a few families in all of Hua Gua that could compare with him. Even the son of the richest man in Hua Gua wouldn’t dare to act arrogantly in front of him. Not to mention he had his grandfather and maternal grandfather backing him. In Hua Gua, what was there to fear? Ever. Since his rebirth, knowing his family background, he realized he would stand at the top of the world’s pyramid in this life. He hadn’t revealed his background before because he felt it unnecessary. If anyone dared to stir trouble under his feet, Wang Chen wouldn’t mind playing with them. What was Chen Mingxian in front of him? Chen Mingxian roared, wishing he could kill Wang Chen right there. Ah. As he struggled, he fell to the ground, his face getting cut by the glass scattered on the floor. Blood immediately flowed from his glass-laden face, making him look grotesque, like a demon. He felt like he was about to explode with rage. Manager Lang, seeing Chen Mingxian collapse on the ground with glass embedded in his face and, blood gushing out, turned pale with fright. Anxious, he rushed forward, shouting loudly, Young Master Chen, are you okay? Quickly help Young Master Chen up. Below the dance floor, a few of his underlings, seeing this, could no longer care about the security team’s obstruction and rushed up frantically. They clumsily helped Shen Mingxian up, only to see his face covered in blood, yet his eyes still burned with the flames of anger. What the hell are you doing? Can’t you see I’m being… attacked? Kill this kid for me, I’ll take responsibility for whatever happens. Shen Mingxuan’s gaze turned sinister, his expression increasingly deranged, and due to the pain on his face, his voice was somewhat distorted. At this moment, he had… completely lost his reason, filled only with hatred for Wang Chen. Quick, stop them. Young Master Chen, let’s leave here first and take care of your wounds in the private room. Manager Leng, seeing the situation spiraling out of control, hurriedly directed the security to block the underlings who were about to make a move. He knew that if this continued and Chen Mingxian acted even more recklessly, the consequences would be unimaginable and his managerial career would be over. Under the control of the security, Chen Mingxian and a few of his underlings were taken away from the booth. Chen Mingxian roared loudly from the dance floor, refusing to return to his private room. Your bar needs to strengthen security. Don’t let just anyone in, otherwise, you’ll lower the bar’s standards. Wangchen looked at Manager Lang calmly and said, just because you’ve had a few drinks, you think you’re something special, that you’re the Prince of Magic City. Although, he had clashed with Chen Mingxian, it was also true that the bar’s security had not done their job properly. He was there to spend money and the bar had a responsibility to ensure his safety. He was fully justified in saying such things to Manager Lang. You’re right. Manager Lang nodded repeatedly, I’ll handle this matter immediately, regardless, it’s our bar’s fault for not managing the scene properly. I’m sorry, Mr. Wang, for disturbing your elegance. Hmm, go take care of. It, it seems he won’t let this go easily. Wang Chen did not blame Manager Lang for this small matter. Watching Chen Mingxian, who was reluctant to return to the private room, he knew there was going to be a good show. Are you blind? I’m the one. Who’s hurt, not him. Why are you stopping me? Chen Mingxian struggled to break through the security’s blockade, venting his anger on the security and Manager Lang, pointing at them and cursing, I’m a VIP in your bar. I’ve spent so much money. And this is how you treat me? Let me through, I want to beat this outsider to death. Manager Lang glanced at Chen Mingxian indifferently, ignoring his curses. Although Chen Mingxian was a regular here, the boss had just instructed to take care of Wang Chen. So manager Lang naturally leaned towards Wang Chen. More and more people gathered around. With such a big commotion happening, it naturally attracted a lot of onlookers, pointing and watching Chen Mingxian shout and make a scene. Young master Wang, there are too many people here. Why don’t we go to the private room? I’ll handle this. Manager Leng said to Wang Chen, noticing the increasing crowd. No need. Wang Chen waved his hand, pointing at Chen Mingxian below. I’ll stay right here. Isn’t he trying to make me regret coming to Modu? I want to see what else he can do. Hearing this, Manager Leng felt a headache coming on, unsure of how to handle the situation. Get down here. I’ll make you pay. You, the one surnamed Leng, come here too. If I can’t deal with you today, I won’t be surnamed Chen. You think your bar can keep running after offending the Chen family? No one will have it easy. Chen Mingxian continued to curse below, then turned to his underlings and said, smash it. If you don’t let me have it easy, then none of you will. Destroy this broken place. He roared madly, grabbing a wine bottle and smashing it on the ground. His underlings exchanged glances. They knew whose territory this bar was and it was clear they were following Qin Xiao. Chen Mingxian was drunk, but they were not. However, seeing the madness in Chen Mingxuan’s eyes, they dared not disobey his orders. They all began to smash the nearby wine bottles and stools. Ah. In an instant, chaos erupted. The sounds of shattering bottles, clashing tables and chairs, and women’s screams intertwined. The guests in the bar were frightened by this sudden turn of events, panicking and screaming as they hurried away from Chen Mingxian and his group. The lively music in the dance floor came to a halt. The scene turned into a complete mess. Quick! Stop them! Everyone, halt! Manager Leng’s forehead was bulging with veins as he tried to stop the crazed group but his voice was completely drowned out by the chaotic noise. Why bother? Once the alcohol wears off, he’ll regret it. Helpless, he could only stand there, watching the mad Shen Mingxian, silently lamenting, unsure. If he could keep his managerial position after such a big incident. Meanwhile, Wang Chen sat on the sofa in the booth, watching the chaotic scene with indifference, as if watching a clown. He said to the few women beside him, keep drinking, don’t let anyone ruin the mood. Saying this, he downed the champagne in his hand. Shen Xingya and the others exchanged glances, fearfully inching closer to Wang Chen, raising their glasses to toast. At that moment, a lazy yet imposing voice. suddenly came from behind who was so bold as to say my bar can’t keep running. Boss. Manager Leng turned around as if he had seen a lifeline, respectfully calling out to a young man. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, turning his head with interest. He saw a young man approaching, walking with a lazy gait. He looked to be around 27 or 28, tall and slim, standing at about 1 meter 80, and it was hard to tell if he weighed over 1. 120 .Behind him were several bodyguards dressed in black suits, each with a robust build, wearing earpieces, and scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes, clearly very professional. This was the internet sensation, the national. Husband Wang Sikong. Known as the Entertainment Industry’s Disciplinary Committee. It’s Wang Sikong. Husband, I love you. Principal, look this way. Hello, thank you all for supporting Master Bar, please continue to enjoy. The crowd of onlookers grew even more fervent, rushing forward to take photos with Wang Sikong. The year 2018 was a year when Wang Sikong exploded across the internet. His fan base was countless nationwide. The popularity was unimaginable. The security on site, along with the bodyguards Wang Sikong brought, barely managed to maintain order. Wang Sikong looked at the chaotic scene. Broken bottles scattered everywhere and a few people entangled with the security, a flicker of displeasure. Crossed his eyes. Chen Mingxian, still shouting, saw the young man approaching and shivered, swallowing back the insults, instinctively shrinking his neck back. His mind cleared instantly, secretly regretting causing trouble in his bar. What? Are you doing? It’s a mess and you’re just standing there. Manager Ling shivered, lowering his head to explain, Boss, this happened too suddenly, we haven’t had the chance to. Shut up. You go handle your business, clean up the scene, and, don’t let any photos leak out. I’ll take care of the rest. Okay, boss. Wang Sikong waved for Manager Ling to leave, then turned his gaze to Chen Mingxian and said, I was wondering who it was, turns out it’s you, Chen Mingxian. You dare. to cause trouble in my territory? Wang Sikong stepped closer to Chen Mingxian, slapping his still bleeding face repeatedly, looking at him with a mocking expression. Brother Wang, it hurts, it hurts. Please be gentle. I was drunk just. Now, I’m sorry, I’ll take responsibility for all the losses. Please let me off this time. Chen Mingxian’s face was already bleeding, and Wang Sikong deliberately slapped the wound, causing him to grimace in pain, yet his head remained stubbornly. Still, he allowed Wang Sikong to continue hitting him. After hearing Chen Mingxuan’s pleas for mercy, Wang Sitzong’s expression suddenly darkened, if I remember correctly, this should be the second time you’ve caused trouble in my bar, right? Last time it was because of a woman, and this time it’s also because of a woman. If you can’t control the two inches below, I don’t mind cutting it off for you, so you won’t cause me trouble next time. Chen Mingxuan’s face changed at these words, instinctively protecting his groin and shrinking back. Wang Sikong continued, I’ve already cleaned up after you once, didn’t hold you accountable, but I warned you there wouldn’t be a next time. It seems you didn’t take my words seriously. Wang Sitsong’s tone was low, his hands still moving. Shen Mingxuan’s face was covered in blood, yet he dared not move. At this moment he had lost all his previous arrogance, enduring the pain with a fawning smile, Brother Wang, it’s all. My fault, I apologize. This time I was also confused by an outsider, I can’t let this go. Brother Wang, please let me off this time, I guarantee there won’t be a next time. In a moment of desperation, Shen Mingxuan pulled a Lamborghini car. key from his pocket and handed it to wang sikong ingratiatingly saying brother wang take this as compensation for tonight’s losses he felt a pang in his heart this was something his father had reluctantly agreed to buy for him wang sikong toyed with the key in his hand casually tossing it to the bodyguard behind him saying get lost and behave yourself from now on if there’s a next time it won’t be just one car that can solve it don’t worry brother wang there won’t be a next time hurry up and leave Chen Mingxian looked at Wang Sikong gratefully, hastily signaling a few of his subordinates to leave the bar. He had already lost face tonight, as if it had been thrown into the Pacific Ocean. He clearly understood that people are not the same, he could provoke Wang Chen, even think about hitting him. But in front of Wang Sikong, he didn’t dare to say a harsh word. He knew his own family background, he wasn’t even worthy of carrying Wang’s shoes. As for calling the police? Chen Mingxian couldn’t do such a thing, and it would be useless anyway. The second generation rich have many unspoken rules in their circles, if you cross the line, you ruin the game. Chen Mingxian couldn’t expect to mix in the magic city anymore. Damn it, what the hell, no strength yet acting more arrogant than me every day. Damn. Wang Sikon looked at Chen Mingxian and the others walking away, sneering. He then stopped caring about the situation here. Manager Lang and others would handle it. The crowd that had been watching the excitement saw there was no more drama and felt disappointed. Woke up New York City. In a funky cheap hotel. She took my heart and she took my money. The live music started again, and the bar DJ, Little Dragon Cat, took the stage to liven up the atmosphere. No wonder he was a multi-million follower internet celebrity. His enchanting figure, combined with his dance moves, made the atmosphere. In the venue heat up again. Wang Sikong saw the scene return to normal and turned to booth 01. With a smile on his face, he extended his hand and said, You must be Wang Chen, the one they mentioned at the Bulgari Hotel. I’m Wang Sikong. One of the shareholders of Master Bar. Seeing this, Wang Chen also stood up, shook hands with Wang Sikong, and said, I’ve heard so much about you, meeting you today is indeed a pleasure. Ha ha ha, it’s just a name, nothing to mention. Sit. Down, let’s have the waiter pour some drinks. I know you, you’re from Rong province. After sitting down, Wang Sikong raised an eyebrow and smiled at Wang Chen. You know me? Wang Chen couldn’t help but show a look of surprise. After all, his personal information had been kept under strict confidentiality. There was hardly a trace of him online. However, it wasn’t too surprising for Wang Sikong, the son of the richest man, to know his identity. Families that reach a certain level always pay attention to gathering and integrating information. After all, when nurturing the next generation, knowing who to offend and who to befriend is essential. Otherwise, offending the wrong person could ruin a family overnight, and that’s no joke. Even if Wang Chen’s personal information was kept strictly confidential, it was as transparent as glass in front of these big families. Of course, the young master of the Pioneer Heavy Industry Group, the only heir of the Wang and Xia families. Currently a sophomore at the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, right? I’ve been wanting to meet you, but unexpectedly, we got to know each other in this situation. Wang Sitsong’s lips curled slightly, revealing a faint smile as he continued. We are both young people and should know that in this circle, information is a resource. As a junior from a prominent family like yours, I will naturally pay extra attention. So you are the young master of Pioneer Heavy Industry Group. No wonder you are so generous. Yes, Pioneer Heavy Industry Group and Yida Group are among the top enterprises in our country. Only then did Chen Xingya and Li Na realize, as if waking from a dream. No wonder Wang Chen was. So young yet so wealthy, he was the young master of the Pioneer Group. That made sense. Chen Mengiao’s face slowly turned red, her eyes flickering, and she instinctively clenched her fingers, secretly vowing to find a way to take Wang Chen away. From Chen Xingya. Even if she had to settle for second best, she had to be part of it. After hearing this, Wang Chen secretly admired Wang Sitsong’s keen insight and extensive connections. He realized that befriending someone like Wang Sikong, the national husband, might help him integrate into the second generation rich circle of the magic city, Wang Sikong now is not the same as he will be in a few years, looking all dejected. Although in a few years, Yida group will fall into crisis, his father managed to pull through and gradually paid off the debts, which is truly admirable. Unlike some other companies that only harm the hard-earned money of the common people, you seem well informed. Wang Chen replied calmly. However, I still hope that our acquaintance this time is not merely due to family background. It doesn’t matter if his background is known, it might even have some benefits when out and about. At least incidents like tonight wouldn’t happen. Of course. Haha. Speaking of which, I should thank Qin Mingxian properly, if it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have met. Wang Sikon laughed heartily, by the way, we both share the surname Wang, and we’re both from Rong province, who knows. We might have been family 500 years ago. You’ve become my friend today. I’m more than happy. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and suddenly asked, by the way, where does Chen Mingxian get the audacity to act so arrogantly in your bar? Wang Sikong scoffed, it’s really nothing much. His family is in construction, just picking up scraps behind another real estate company, making a bit of hard-earned money. The entire Chen family doesn’t even have 10 billion in assets, but he supports a bunch of people. He’s the only one in his generation, so he’s used to being arrogant. He’s caused trouble in my bar before, usually, I let him be since he spends quite a bit, but I didn’t expect him to hit a wall this time. I thought. He was some big shot, even boasting that I’d have to leave Shanghai. Turns out it’s just a joke. Wang Chen also chuckled, I wanna see what tricks he has up his sleeve next. These are all small matters. With me around, he won’t dare to be. Arrogant again, what just happened was also a wait event for you. Wang Sikong said with a hint of schadenfreude, but even if I hadn’t stepped in, running into you would still be his bad luck. Does he really think he can walk all over Shanghai? Just because he has a bit of status? He’ll be finished sooner or later. I haven’t even revealed your identity as the young master of the vanguard group, otherwise he’d probably be scared out of his wits. If his father knew he had provoked you, he’d probably rush over to apologize overnight. This guy usually wants to get close to me, trying to hitch a ride on the Wang family’s big ship. Teaching him a lesson this time is also to make him remember. Wang Sikon usually couldn’t stand him either, so he had held back earlier and didn’t remind Wang Chen of his identity. Ha, you’re quite mischievous. Wang Chen said with a smile. Wang Sikon laughed heartily, you’re still good natured towards me. Tonight, we won’t stop. Until we’re drunk. Not stopping until we’re drunk. Wang Chen replied lightly. It’s just drinking, he’s never been afraid of anyone. Wang Sikong suddenly shifted his gaze, looking at Xin Xinya, who was holding Wang Chen’s arm, and curiously, asked Wang Chen, who is this? This is my girlfriend, Xin Xinya, and these are her close friends. Wang Chen said, holding Xin Xinya’s hand and generously introducing her to Wang Sikong. Hello, Principal. Xin Xinya’s face flushed, with a hint of shyness as she spoke softly. She was filled with joy. Wang Chen’s initiative to introduce her to his friends was undoubtedly a recognition of her by Wang Chen. Hello? Wang Sikong nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the four. Charming beauties beside Wang Chen, then teasingly said to Wang Chen, your sister-in-law is so beautiful, but you need to be careful, although she’s still young, don’t ruin her health. Get lost, even if you ruin me, I won’t be ruined. Wang Chen retorted irritably. What a joke, not to mention just Zhang Rou and Xinxingya, even if he added three or five more, he was confident he could handle it with ease. Come on, everyone, let’s have a toast first. Wang Sikong said with a beaming. Smile, this first glass is for the acquaintance between Wang Chen and me. Cheers. Everyone raised their glasses. The crisp sound of clinking echoed in the luxurious space. Wang Chen tilted his head back and drank in one go, while Xinxingya took a small sip. She wasn’t much of a drinker and didn’t want to dampen the mood. After a few rounds of drinks, Wang Sitsong’s chatter was fully unleashed. He began recounting his glorious achievements and some amusing stories about the wealthy families in the magic city. Everyone listened with great interest, and Li Na was laughing so hard she could hardly close her mouth. The sound of her laughter rang out continuously. At that moment, Xin Xingya felt someone tugging at her clothes. Turning around, she saw Li Na giving her a knowing look, what’s wrong? I need to go to the bathroom. This place is too big and I’m afraid I’ll get lost. Can you come with me? Sure, I need to go too. Then, Xin Xingya leaned close to Wang. Chenin said, darling, Li Na and I are going to the restroom. We’ll be back soon. Wang Chen smiled and nodded, indicating he understood. Splash, splash, splash. Inside the restroom, Xinxingya and Li Na were touching up their makeup. In front of the mirror, Li Na suddenly said to Xinxingya, Xinxingya, I didn’t expect Wang Chen to be the young master of xianfong heavy industry group. Yeah, I didn’t expect it either. I only knew his background was probably not simple, but I didn’t realize it was really not simple. Xinxingya sighed about her good fortune and said to Li Na, do you think I’m particularly lucky? Don’t celebrate too early, Li Na replied helplessly. The reason I wanted you to come to the restroom. With me was to remind you that someone like Wang Chen, who is wealthy, doesn’t lack women. As long as he wants, there will be plenty of women flocking to him. Did you not see Chen Mengiao’s eyes? She looked like she wanted to eat Wang Chen. Alive. Xinxingya frowned and asked, Are you sure? How could I not be sure? I know her little thoughts all too well. As soon as Li Na finished speaking, Xinxingya became anxious. She didn’t expect that even her most trusted sister would betray her. Saying this, she was about to go find Chen Mengiao to clarify things. Hey, wait a minute. Don’t be in such a hurry. Li Na quickly reached out to stop her, looking at Xinxingya with a teasing expression. Don’t rush. There are many. Women eyeing Wang Chen, are you going to confront them all? Besides, a wealthy person like Wang Chen can’t possibly have just one woman. What you need to do is leverage your advantages and at least secure a place in Wang Chen’s heart. As she spoke, Li Na seemed to be encouraging Xinxingya, clenching her fist tightly and cheering her on. Your looks and figure are your greatest assets and advantages, but nothing is absolute, it’s better to act first. How about this, tomorrow. I’ll help you take a leave and switch your shift to the day after. You should aim to win over Wang Chen tonight. Li Na looked straight at Xinxingya, speaking earnestly. Xinxingya was stunned, staring blankly at Li Na, suddenly feeling that the other person seemed so unfamiliar. The once playful and laughing friend now felt like a stranger, making her hesitant to recognize her. Was this really her funny best friend? People are realistic. Do you know? I dream of finding a wealthy man like Wang Chen. Li Na sighed lightly, glancing at Xinxing Ye with resignation, and continued, you’re my best friend, so I won’t compete with you, but, if Wang Chen gives me a chance, don’t blame me. And don’t treat Wang Chen, like an ordinary person. Just because he’s young doesn’t mean you can take him lightly. A wealthy person like him has seen more tricks than you’ve had meals. Never try to be clever in front of Wang Chen, just obediently follow him, and that’s how. You can stay by his side. Do you understand? Xinxing Ye stood there as if petrified, motionless for a long time, then finally lifted her head and said, I understand. Thank you, Nana. If Wang Chen really has feelings for you, I won’t blame you. Her words were sincere. Although Li Na’s words were very realistic, it was a bit hard for Xinxingya to accept at that moment, but she knew that the other party genuinely cared for her well-being, hoping she could find a good place to settle down. Don’t worry, Nana, it’s not that easy for other women to steal Wang Chen away. After all, I met Wang Chen first, and he was the one who pursued me, Xinxingya said, slightly raising her chin. She had absolute confidence in her looks and figure. However, let’s head out first, Wang Chin must have been waiting for a long time. Xinxingya hurriedly finished her makeup in the mirror and rushed out of the bathroom. Li Na watched her retreating figure and chuckled, waving. Her hand. At the booth, the atmosphere was lively. The DJ, Little Dragon Cat, who should have been performing on stage, was now energetically entertaining Wang Chan and Wang Sikong. Her captivating dance moves and enchanting figure swayed. Like willow branches in the wind. Paired with the subtly revealing black stockings, it added an extra touch of seductive allure. The dynamic music created a fiery atmosphere in the venue. Colorful lights flickered across Little Dragon Cat, outlining her charming silhouette, while the surrounding crowd cheered and screamed, immersed in this intoxicating revelry. Little Dragon Cat’s exquisite features appeared even more alluring under the ambiguous lighting, her captivating big eyes. Constantly throwing flirtatious glances at Wang Chen and Wang Si Kong, those eyes seemed to carry threads of romantic entanglement, capable of stealing one’s soul. Wang Chen held a glass and sipped slowly with Wang Si Tsong, who wore a teasing smile. Joking, this little dragon cat has captivated a large number of fans online with her sexiness. Don’t you think she seems a bit interested in us? Wang Chen chuckled lightly, don’t jump to conclusions, maybe she’s just performing purely. Wang Chen had no interest in little dragon cat, his target tonight was not her. He glanced at Xin Xingya, who was nestled in his arms, feeling increasingly excited. Xin Xingya appeared tipsy, her soft body leaning against Wang Chen. She seemed to be completely out of it. Pure. Don’t be fooled by her appearance, Wang Sichong raised an eyebrow, his gaze filled with amusement. Wang Chen’s eyes slowly roamed over Little Dragon Cat, so what? After all, in this era where looks matter, relationships between men and women can sometimes be like a social business card. Little Dragon Cat’s performance gradually reached its climax, ending with an extremely seductive pose. In an instant, the entire bar felt like a powder keg had been ignited. Amazing. Do another one. A wave of thunderous applause and sharp whistles erupted from the crowd, loud enough to seem like it would blow the roof off the bar. The colorful light shone on Little Dragon Cat, outlining her incredibly alluring figure, while the surrounding crowd seemed enchanted, completely immersed in this intoxicating wave of revelry. Then, Little Dragon Cat walked towards Wang Chan and Wang Si Kang. Her swaying steps resembled a lively little kitten. She, held a glass of wine, which sparkled enticingly under the lights. Young Master Wang, Young Master Yu. Little Dragon Cat raises a glass to both of you, thanking Master Bar for inviting me to perform tonight. Also, thank you both for taking the time to watch my performance. Little Dragon Cat’s voice was like a nightingale, melodious with a hint of allure and charm, tugging at the heartstrings. Her gaze flitted between the two, but lingered more on Wang Sitsong, as if her eyes held a captivating magic. Nice dance. Tonight’s star is our young master you, don’t neglect the guests. A playful smile curled at the corner of Wang Sitsong’s mouth. He had already drunk quite a bit before coming to the booth and was starting to feel a bit tipsy. Seeing Wang Chen looking sober, he thought to encourage him to drink more. Little dragon cat playfully smiled clinking glasses with Wang’s seat sewn before turning to Wang Chen and saying, young master you, you should have a drink. 2. Wang Chen initially intended to brush it off casually however, the charming appearance and delicate posture of the little dragon cat made it impossible not to drink several cups. This action of the little dragon cat, however, drew the Displeasure of Xinxingya, who frowned, her eyes filled with a hint of anger, as she lay softly in Wang Chen’s arms, seemingly asserting her sovereignty. The little dragon cat, seemingly oblivious to Xinxingya’s dissatisfaction, leaned even. Closer to Wang Chen, her gaze towards Xinxingya filled with provocation. That look seemed to say, what can you do about it? Although Xinxingya was filled with rage inside, she could only hold it in, glaring fiercely at the little dragon. Cat. Wang Chen, feeling helpless, turned to Li Na and the others and said, did you not see the principal drinking alone? It’s not easy for an ordinary person to have a drink with him. This is a rare opportunity. Upon hearing this, Li Na and the others raised their glasses and said to Wang Sitsong, Principal, don’t drink alone, let’s join you. With Wang Chen’s cue, Zhou Jing and Xiao Xiao stepped forward first. They had long wanted to drink with Wang Sitsong but their difference in status made them hesitate. Now, they gathered their courage fearing to provoke Wang Sitsong’s displeasure. Saying this, they took turns clinking glasses with Wang Sitsong and downed their drinks. Wang Sitsong laughed and said, huh, don’t. Be so polite. Seeing Wang Chen and the little dragon cat getting closer, Xin Xinya couldn’t take it anymore and said, did you not see he has already drunk so much? Why are you still pouring drinks for him? Brother Wang Chen, you shouldn’t. Drink anymore. Miss Xin, I’m just expressing my respect for young master you, why are you so nervous? Is it a lack of confidence in yourself? The little dragon cat said nonchalantly, still wearing that enchanting smile, provocatively looking. At Xin Xinya. Xinxingya’s face turned slightly pale with anger, don’t stir up trouble here, it’s not your place as a dancer to worry about this. Brother Wang Chen, look at her. Xinxingya pouted in Wang Chen’s arms. Wang Chen, sensing. The situation was getting out of hand, quickly intervened, everyone, stop arguing. We’re here to relax tonight, let’s all calm down and not ruin the mood. Although Xinxingya still felt angry, she temporarily held back her outburst under Wang. Chen’s soothing words, nearly shooting a fierce glare at the little dragon cat. Amidst the clinking of glasses, the atmosphere reached its peak. At this moment, Wang Chen said to the little dragon cat who was close to him, go tell everyone, that I’ll cover the expenses for the whole night. What? The little dragon cat was shocked thinking she had misheard. It should be known that Master Bar, as one of the top bars in the Magic City, had a nightly turnover of at least tens of millions. Although Wang Chen was the son of the Vanguard group, he couldn’t possibly be that wealthy, especially since he was only 20 and hadn’t taken over his family’s business yet. To her, being able to spend hundreds of thousands tonight, already made him one of the wealthier second generation rich kids. After all, many second-generation rich kids appeared glamorous, taking girls out for fun, but in reality, they often made the girls pay for the hotel rooms. This was not uncommon. I said, I’ll cover the expenses for the whole night, did you hear me clearly? Wang Chen had no choice but to shout loudly. Money was indeed not a big deal for Wang Chen. After all, with the double cashback effect, no matter how much he spent, it could multiply. Before reaching a certain amount, a little more or less didn’t make much difference. What mattered was earning system points through spending, that was the most important thing, the reason he could indulge in such a lavish lifestyle was due to the double cash back and extreme physique perks. The former provided financial support, while the latter insured health protection. So spending money was the hard truth. However, the points earned were still too few, and Wang Chen could only be more high profile about it. The group sitting nearby drinking was utterly shocked. No way, dude. Wang Sitsong was stunned. He had been playing for so many years and was used to spending money like water, but he had. never seen anyone as extravagant as Wang Chen. After all, no one’s money came from thin AIR.As one of the shareholders of Master Bar, he knew very well that the bar’s revenue for a single night could reach tens of millions. He couldn’t bear to spend that money. Xinxingya was also surprised, covering her mouth and staring blankly at Wang Chen. Is there a problem? Wang Chen looked at Wang Sikong and asked. No. Brother, you’re still amazing. Wang Sikong shook his head, repeatedly and waved to manager Lang who was standing at a distance. Manager Lang immediately jogged over. Bowing in front of Wang Sikong, he said, boss, what can I do for you? Arrange for all the expenses tonight to be covered by young master. You, make sure to keep up appearances, don’t lose face. All expenses for the entire venue? Manager Lang doubted whether his ears were malfunctioning. This news truly shocked him. Having worked in the bar for so many years, he had seen many wealthy people, but he had never encountered someone as extravagant as Wang Chen. It was even a bit foolish. Is there a problem? Just serve a full set of Shenlong drinks to all the VIP tables, including the scattered tables. Make sure everyone can drink, and if it’s not enough, let them order more themselves. Just don’t waste it, Wang Chen said calmly. Manager Leng shook his head repeatedly. He then turned and walked down from the VIP table to arrange the relevant matters. Before long, as the music in the bar softened, the lights focused on the area where Wang Chen and the others were seated. Intense lights and dazzling beams surrounded them, creating a unique visual focal point. What are they up to again? Suddenly, a chaotic whispering filled the surroundings. Boom. Bang. Bang. Bang. Accompanied by the beat of the music and the sound of fireworks exploding, several lines of large characters appeared on the massive naked eye. 3D display on stage, along with the lights and music. Thanks to Wang Chen, Young Master Wang, for covering all the expenses tonight. Wishing Young Master Wang smooth sailing and abundant wealth. May fortune flow in endlessly. May he earn gold daily and have a long and prosperous journey. Everyone, tonight’s expenses are covered by Young Master Wang, let’s all thank Young Master Yu and wish him a night of revelry. The host on stage shouted excitedly, his voice hoarse, screams. Cheers! Ah! The already noisy bar instantly erupted into a frenzy. With Wang’s seat zones pull, Wang Chin stood up alongside him, waving to the crowd below. Strands of light ribbons snaked out from the backstage, with hundreds of beautiful. Ladies holding wine boxes, dressed in cool and sexy outfits, gracefully making their way to every corner of the venue. Colorful paper strips flew through the air. Golden ribbons fell as if they were free. At this moment, the display screen on. Stage switch to images of Wang Chan and Wang Sikong. Ah, that’s the ace of spades. I’ve never had it before. Young Master Wang is mighty. The guests’ dancing bodies became even more excited. One by one, bunny girls with rabbit ears, sexy figures, and glowing fair skin stood around Wang Chan and the others’ VIP table, dancing freely to the music. The host’s invigorating voice echoed throughout the venue, and everyone in the bar began to shout Young Master Yu’s name. The atmosphere was almost about to break through the venue, soaring into the sky. Wang Chen’s handsome face and calm demeanor made all the girls in the crowd scream in excitement, going wild. Young and handsome, he was simply the dream. Man. If it weren’t for Manager Leng having anticipated this early on and arranging for security to surround the VIP table, Wang Chen and Wang Sikong would likely have been overwhelmed by the wave of girls. Even so, some girls, like Star Chasers, were incredibly crazy, desperately trying to break through the security line, shouting loudly, young master Wang, add me on Feixing, I can do any pose, I won’t disappoint you. Principal, I love you. Principal, let me in, I can do anything. Tonight, some girl’s remarks were undeniably bold, catching Wang Chen off guard. Hahaha, Wang Sikon laughed heartily upon seeing the troubled expression on Wang Chen’s face. Wang Chen turned to a few flight attendants and said, lightly, drink freely, if you can’t finish it, just pour it on the ground for me. Xingya, pour some into my hands so I can wash them. He had always wanted to try this classic scene from the movies. Wang Chen’s calm words stirred excitement among the flight attendants present, making them secretly cross their legs. This version of Wang Chen was brimming with masculine charm. If he were to beckon them with a finger, they would undoubtedly throw themselves onto him and never get up again. Xin Xinya, pouring the wine, also gazed at Wang Chen with a dazed expression. She had to admit that Wang Chen’s charm was off the charts. She found herself losing control, wanting to end the bar gathering quickly and rush back to the hotel. With Wang Chen It’s nothing much, Wangchen said while washing his hands, sighing as he looked at the frenzied crowd around him. Money and desire have always been humanity’s ultimate pursuits. Without a desire for money and ambition for power, one could end up with nothing in the magic city, ding. The system detected that the host spent 29,860,000 yuan, with a double cashback of 59 ,720,000 yuan.Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 2 ,986 system points.Midnight. The cold moonlight spilled onto the street. Master bar. Not far from the entrance, there was a cacophony, and the ground was filthy. Young master you, we’ll take our leave now. Chen Mengiao smiled as she waved at Wang Chen, then threw him a look that only the two of them could understand. Shortly after, a few people helped the drunken Li Na into the nanny car arranged by manager Leng, disappearing from everyone’s sight. Wang Chen felt a stir in his heart and discreetly touched the small note in his pocket. Let’s head back too, Xinxingya said, her cheeks flushed, hugging Wang Chen’s arm, her body pressed tightly against his, moving in sync with him. At that moment, a pink Rolls Royce Cullinan stopped in front of Wang Chen. Manager Lang got out of the car and opened the door for Wang Chen, saying, Young Master you, our boss drank too much and has already left. It’s not good for you to drive after drinking, so before leaving, the boss specifically instructed us to drive you back in his car. If you don’t mind, we can take your beloved car back for you. Or you can come back to drive it whenever you have time. Hearing this, Wang Chen thought that Wang’s sick on was quite considerate, not only arranging. for someone to take Li Na and the others back but also sending his beloved car for himself. He had been thinking of calling a chauffeur but it seemed unnecessary now. All right. Wang Chen didn’t hesitate and handed the car keys to manager. Lung, saying, then I won’t be polite. You are our boss’s friend, this is what we should do. Manager Lung smiled and said, young master you, please get in the car first and just tell the driver your destination. Wang Chen nodded and said. To Xinxingya beside him, let’s go, we’re heading back too. Just as he was about to get in the car, he suddenly remembered something and said to manager Leng, when I arrived, there was a security guard who helped me park, can you call him? Over? Manager Leng was a bit puzzled but still called through his earpiece. In a short while, a young security guard hurried over, looking at Wang Chen with anticipation and asking, boss, what can I do for you? Wang Chen looked at manager Leng, and said, just let him drive my car back. Manager Leng handed the keys to the security guard and said, drive young master use car back, just follow the car in front, and don’t lose it. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to complete the task. The young security guard stood straight, took the keys, and saluted. You’re an interesting one, Wang Chen nodded and pulled Xin Xinya into the pink cullinan. The car door closed automatically, the young driver in a black suit turned his head and, respectfully asked, young master you, where are we going? To the Bulgari hotel. Okay. After that, the driver said no more and pressed a button. A partition slowly descended from the middle of the car, creating a private space in the back. Seat where the driver could no longer see anything behind him. The car slowly drove out of the bar’s entrance. The security guard also drove Wang Chen’s McLaren P1 following closely behind. The car was very quiet. Xinxingya kept her legs. Together, quietly watching Wang Chen feeling a mix of fear and anticipation for what was to come. Suddenly, her face was turned by Wang Chen. His forceful kiss pried her tightly closed teeth apart, making Xinxingya lose her will to resist her. Gaze gradually becoming hazy, only drawing her body closer to Wang Chen. Their breaths became increasingly rapid. After an unknown amount of time, Xinxingya felt Wang Chen’s hand unbuttoning her clothes, and she instantly snapped back to reality. She hurriedly reached out to Pat Wang Chen, saying, No, not in the car. This isn’t right. Wang Chen opened the car window, taking a deep breath of the cold morning air to calm himself down. Xinxingya took deep breaths of fresh air. While glancing at the partition, noticing it was tightly sealed and the driver couldn’t see what was happening behind, which made her feel a bit relieved. Just as she turned her head back, she found Wang Chen looking at her with a smirk, saying, If we can’t do it in the car, then we can do it at the hotel later? Xinxingya’s fair face instantly turned crimson, and she bit her lip, saying, I didn’t say that. You naughty girl. Xinxingya said, clenching her fist and punching. Wang Chen’s chest. She looked at him with affectionate eyes. Xinxingya’s coy demeanor made Wang Chen feel his blood boiling. He immediately took a deep breath, fearing he might lose control. Young master you, we’ve arrived. In the middle of. The night in the magical city, the road was clear. Soon, the car came to a steady stop at the entrance of the Bulgari hotel. The driver’s voice came from the front. Alright. Xinxingya hurriedly tidied her wrinkled clothes and got out of the car. She felt her legs were a bit weak. Just thinking about what had happened in the car made her feel that even though the driver couldn’t see, he could probably guess what they were doing. With that thought, Xinxingya wished she could find a crack in the ground to hide in. Boss, your car keys. As soon as he got out, the security guard parked his car in the Bulgari hotel’s parking space and handed over the keys. Wangqin took the keys and then pulled out three stacks of cash from the car. He handed two stacks to the young man in front of him, saying, thanks. The young man instantly beamed with joy, smiling broadly, thank you, boss. Have fun. Wang Chen nodded and then walked to the driver’s side of the cullinan. Handing the remaining stack of cash to the driver, please thank your boss for me. Young master you, I can’t accept this. The driver repeatedly waved his hands. Take it, it’s a hassle late at night. After Wang Chen finished speaking, he patted the driver’s shoulder, turned around, and took Xinxingya’s hand as they walked towards the hotel. Just as they exited the elevator, Butler Lin was standing there, slightly bowing to Wang Chen, Mr. Wang, welcome home. Whom? Wang Chen. Replied lightly. Inside the Bulgari suite, the dim light was soft, illuminating their eager figures. Wang Chen stepped closer, gently pulling Xinxingya into his arms, lowering his head to softly kiss her lips. Sometimes gentle, sometimes passionate. Wang Chen’s warm palm blighted over Xinxingya’s curvy hips, gently pressing her down to bring her closer to him. Everything became blurry, leaving only their existence. Wang Chen’s lips gradually moved downward filled with endless tenderness and desire. Xinxingya wrapped her arms around Wang Chen’s descending head, gazing at his face, her eyes filled with love. Wang Chen, will you take responsibility for me? Do you love me? As long as you don’t leave me, you will always be my woman. What people call love in this world is merely the desire that arises at first sight. Xinxingya looked at Wang Chen, wrinkling her adorable little nose and said, so you were attracted to me at first sight? You just want my body. Wang Chen continued, what’s the difference between being attracted at first sight and wanting your body? If you follow me, I can provide you with enough material security to live the life you desire. Do you think that’s enough to love? You? Xinxingya pondered for a moment, then her face broke into a smile as she hugged Wang Chen tightly, saying, okay, I love you too. In this lifetime, you better not think of leaving me. At 3 in the morning, the bustling city of Magic City had fallen into silence. Wang Chen, however, was wide awake, sitting quietly on the living room sofa. His gaze fell on the already sleeping Xinxingya who looked like a little cat, her sweet and happy smile visible in her dreams. Wang Chen’s thoughts drifted a bit, and he unconsciously reached into his pants pocket pulling out a small piece of paper. It had a string of phone numbers written on it. This was the little note that Chen Mengiao had secretly slipped into his pocket while toasting him at the bar. Wang Chen chuckled softly, took out his phone, searched for the number, and added it on Feixin. It was as if the other side had been waiting and the friend request was instantly accepted. Soon after, a message popped up. Brother Wang Chen, it’s Chen Mengiao. What is this? Wang Chen was a bit curious about what this girl would say next. Would it be what he guessed? Brother Wang Chen, please don’t reject me right away, give me a chance. Okay? I also want to be your woman. I can do everything Xin Xin Ye can do. And what she can’t do, I can do too. I don’t want much. Chen Mengiao’s coquettish voice came through the phone clearly. Simple and direct, she stated what she wanted. Interesting. Wang Chen chuckled softly, saying, wait until I have time. After thinking for a moment, he replied. Although Chen Manyao couldn’t compare to Xin Xinya, her figure and looks were slightly inferior. However, in the eyes of ordinary people, she was undoubtedly a goddess-level beauty. In her barefaced state, according to the system’s scoring standards, she could easily score above 90. If it were the previous Wang Chen facing a girl of this caliber, he probably wouldn’t even have had the chance to interact with her. But now, Wang Chen didn’t feel any discomfort or disdain towards Chen Manyao’s proactive behavior. In his view, if one wanted to be the woman beside a wealthy man, they should have such awareness. The mindset Chen Mengiao was showing now was quite broad-minded. She was open-minded. Compared to spending time trying to woo her, this kind of direct approach was much more appealing. Then, Wang Chen stopped paying attention to the messages from Chen Mengiao. Instead, he opened the DY live streaming room. The points were still increasing, but it was a bit slow. Wang Chen thought it would be faster to find a girl in the live stream to give him some rewards. Soon, in the Phone video, a sweet-looking streamer dressed in white stockings was dancing, catching Wang Chen’s attention. She looked to be in her 20s, performing the dance Seelie Seelie, which had been all the rage in 2018. Xyle xyle xyle xyle EU alert. Girl. Ale mile mile p my done. After the dance, the streamer named Dodo doesn’t eat cilantro stopped her moves and began chatting and interacting with the fans in the live room. Family, how did the dance look? If you like the streamer, send a little heart and follow me. Love you. Dodo doesn’t eat cilantro was a streamer with hundreds of thousands of fans. However, there were very few viewers in the live room, only a little over a thousand. Wang Chen could tell she was working hard, her dance was good, and she looked decent too. Wang Chen then linked his bank card and opened the gift section, directly sending out 100 carnivals. Woyo sent out carnival times 100. In an instant, the live stream was flooded with gift effects. Dodo, who was chatting with fans, was momentarily stunned. What the hell, where did this big shot come from, and how is he only level 1? The streamer is really lucky today, she met a big shot, why not go and flatter him quickly. Woyo sent out carnival times 100. Dodo pinched her thigh hard, this isn’t a dream, this isn’t a dream. Realizing what was happening, she quickly said, thank you, brother Woyo, for the 200 carnivals. Brother Woyo. Loves you. This is Dodo’s first time receiving so many gifts, brother Woyo is so handsome. Dodo, do a dance for brother Woyo, whatever dance he likes, I can do it. The atmosphere in the live stream was instantly ignited. Bystander. a a big shot actually came to the live stream looks like dodo is going to rise up bystander b then teased streamer do a seductive and sexy one it’s over the streamer is going to change into someone else’s shape as the gifts continued to pour in a crowd of bystanders was attracted and the number of viewers in the live stream quickly climbed to ten thousand dodo’s eyes turned red with excitement her voice slightly choked as she said thank you brother wuyo for the gifts family please hit that follow button the streamer will dance soon wuyo dance a pure land of ultimate bliss Okay, brother Wuyo. Dodo saw the bullet screen sent by Wang Chen and immediately began to move. Accompanied by the music, Dodo danced with utmost seriousness. The gift effects in the live stream also flooded the screen like a tide. Wuyo sent out Carnival x 1000. Wuyo sent out Carnival x 1000. Wuyo sent out Dream Castle x 1000. With the gifts being sent, Wang Chen’s D sound account level also reached the prestigious level 70. Ding! The system detected that the host spent $9 ,488,800, double cashback $18,977,600. Ding! The system congratulates the host for obtaining 948. System points. Ding! To facilitate the host’s intuitive view of the balance, the host’s bank card balance has been added to the system panel. Please check it yourself. Wang Chen was curious and immediately opened the system panel to check. A light blue screen instantly appeared before him, host, Wang Chen age, 20 height, 188 charm, 92 physique, 120, the limit for normal people is 100, stamina, 120, the limit for normal people is 100, entry, double cashback, entry effect.

Thank you, brother Wuyo, for the gifts, I really appreciate it. After finishing the pure land of ultimate bliss, Dodo smiled brightly. Wuyo, I’m leaving now, see you next time. Ah, brother. Wuyo, are you leaving already? I still have so many performances to do. Wuyo, remember to check your private messages, Dodo was waiting for you. Seeing Wangchen about to leave, Dodo didn’t dare to keep him. After all, this was. The first time such a wealthy person came to her livestream and sent so many gifs, she couldn’t be too greedy, lest she leave a bad impression on Wang Chen. To catch this wealthy big brother, she couldn’t care less about her usual reserved demeanor and directly told him in the livestream to check his private messages. She could only silently pray in her heart that Wang Chen would visit her livestream again. After all, just from this wave of gifs, she could at least earn over a million. This was more than she had earned since she started streaming, Wang Chen casually clicked to follow and then exited the livestream, heading to the next one. He changed his position, comfortably lying on the Flexorm brand sofa. Continuing. To browse the live videos, he searched for the next lucky recipient of gifts. Smoke signals at the wind and sand pass, please drink less, general, the road ahead is tough, I will wait at home, a hoarse female voice came. From the video, causing Wang Chen’s scrolling finger to pause. The live stream was called S-Goo. On the screen was a girl dressed innocently, singing my general, ah ah ah into the microphone. The number of viewers in the live stream reached hundreds. of thousands, with gifts floating across the screen, creating a lively atmosphere. She wore a tight black dress, with black thigh-high stockings paired with black high heels, showcasing her graceful figure. With a pure and sweet appearance, her two beautiful eyes sparkled and combined with her unique smoky voice, it created a striking contrast. S. Gu? Did I just stumble upon an ancient true god? In two years, her presence online would be hard to find. Wang Chen clicked to enter. The live stream, and instantly, the screen was filled with twinkling stars and vibrant petals dancing. Various dazzling special effects appeared in the live stream, showcasing Wang Chen’s arrival. Welcome, Brother Wuyo. S. Gu was somewhat surprised, a level 70 big shot was rare, and a charming smile appeared on her face as she spoke into the microphone, Brother Wuyo, is there a song you want to hear? Another one about the general. 98k, Heart Like Still Water. Before Wang Chen could speak, the barrage of comments in the live stream was already flying by. Wuyo, you sing it. Then I’ll sing my general, uh-uh-uh, again. Seeing this, Esku took out her signature song, My General, Ah. Wangchen opened the gift list and began to send gifts one by one. The live stream was instantly filled with various gift effects, cluttering the screen. Wuyo sent Carnival x1000. Wuyo sent Volcanic Eruption x1000. Wuyo sent Romantic Carriage x1000. Wuyo sent Douyin x1000. With each gift sent, different effects lit up on the screen, some romantic, some cool, and various explosions. Accompanied by background music, the phone screen vibrated intensely. The entire live stream began to lag. Ding! The system detected that the host spent $8,202,900. Double cashback 16, 405, 800. Ding! The system congratulates the host for obtaining 820 system points. The fans in the live stream were all stunned by this wave of gifts. Big shot, do you still? Need pendants on your legs? Every day is about sending little hearts. Today we finally see some expensive gifts. Looking for a sponsor. Oh my god, how much is this? Looking at the screen filled with flattery, Wang Chen felt quite pleased. No wonder so many wealthy people love to splurge in live streams. In his past life, he can only watch others flaunt their gifts. His main focus was just companionship, not sending coins. Sometimes, while watching live streams, he couldn’t help but send a few little hearts. With this massive wave of gifts, Esgu clearly couldn’t handle it anymore. Ah, thank you, brother Woyo, for sending Carnival, Volcanic Eruption, Romantic Carriage, and doing number one. Esgu was. Extremely excited, her voice trembling. What attracts streamers the most? It must be the wealthy big shots, as long as there’s support from a big shot, even newcomers can soar to great heights. Not to mention she already had a lot of traffic, what she lacked was the support of a wealthy big shot. SGE’s eyes sparkle, her lips curling into a smile as she said in a melodious voice, Brother WooYo, what song do you wanna hear? You can choose, tonight I’ll leave it to you. WooYo, anything. Goes, you decide, singing, dancing, or PK is all fine. The show goes on, and the gifts keep coming. S saw the bullet comments sent by Wang Chan and felt even more excited. She knew this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and she had to seize it. So, she adjusted her excited emotions and smiled at the camera, saying, All right, brother Woyo, let’s start with heart like still water. As the music began, S started her performance. The bullet comments were filled with praise. And many people followed the rhythm, sending little hearts and other gifts. You opened the gift list and started sending gifts. Woyo sent Carnival Times 2000. Wuyo sent Dream Castle times 2,000. Wuyo sent Romantic Carriage times 2,000. Wang Chen’s fingers were getting sore, and his Douyin account level finally reached the maximum level of 75. Ding! The system detected that the host spent $175,552,000, double cashback $35 ,110,400.

The song ended. As quickly thanked, brother Woyo is mighty. With so many gift effects, it dazzled his eyes, making him feel like he had reached the peak of his life since starting the live stream. At. That moment, another streamer suddenly applied for a live PK. She hesitated, after all, the one applying was also a big streamer. She was afraid that after this PK, regardless of winning or losing, Wang Chen might end up on the other side. She. Would regret it by then. After all, everyone wants a powerful big brother. Woyo, go for the PK, with me here, you won’t lose. S smiled helplessly and could only agree to the other party’s request. The opponent was also a top streamer on D, with a number one guardian. Both sides exchanged gifts back and forth, and the gift effects in the live stream room never disappeared. In the end, it was still Wang Chen’s strong financial backing that led the opponent to defeat. S won this PK. Victory. There might be some tricks involved, but for Wang Chen, his goal was achieved. The opponent might have made a killing, but Wang Chen would never lose. As the last 1,000 carnivals were sent out, the system announcement rang on time. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 38,566,000. Double cashback 77,132,000. Ding. The system congratulates the host for obtaining 3,856 system points. System. Open personal panel. Wang Chen’s voice couldn’t hide his anticipation. He. Had been looking forward to this lottery for a long time. In an instant, a light blue screen, visible only to him, quietly appeared before his eyes, clearly displaying his personal information, age, 20 years height, 188 cm charm, 92 physique, 120, normal human limit is 100, stamina, 120, normal human limit is 100, traits, double cashback, trade effect, all reasonable expenses will be refunded double, extreme physique, trade effect, from this moment on, you are the ceiling, of human physique, points, 10 ,531 points. Huasha Coins, 1, 692, 070, 719. Looking at the unprecedented over 10,000 points, a satisfied smile curved on Wang Chen’s lips. He silently prayed in his heart, hoping that tonight’s lottery would yield. Abundant rewards, with many excellent traits coming in. He hoped the system could be a bit more generous, after calming himself, he steadied his mind and silently said, System, open the intermediate roulette. I want to go all in, 10 consecutive. Draws. The light blue personal panel vanished like a bubble, replaced by an ancient silver roulette. It floated quietly in mid-air, surrounded by a layer of silvery light, exuding a deep and distant quality. Mysterious patterns danced across. The roulette, emanating an enigmatic aura. As the roulette spun, the strange light flickering on the mysterious patterns grew increasingly dazzling, as if the lines themselves had come to life, each one shimmering with a peculiar glow. 1. Chen’s expression was tense to the extreme, his eyes fixed on the spinning roulette. It felt as if the entire world had come to a standstill at that moment, with only the rotation of the roulette tugging at every nerve in his body. Ding! Detected that the host has consumed 10,000 points, now starting the intermediate roulette 10 consecutive draws. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 133,333,333 Huasha coins. Ding!

Congratulations to the host for obtaining a pair of black stockings. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a leading edge device. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the. Entry Eye of Truth. Seeing this, Wang Chen casually tossed aside the abrupt black stockings, eagerly checking the effects of the newly acquired entries, solidification, your physical condition will always be at its peak. Eye of Truth unlocks. The mysterious power of the door to truth, all buried disguises will be exposed under its gaze. Note, observing different things will yield different information. Ding! Huasha Industrial and Commercial Bank reminds you, your account has been credited 2,199 ,999,999, your balance is 3,892 ,070,718 Huasha coins. Yes, the system is awesome. Wangchen couldn’t hide his excitement, cheering loudly. He quickly opened his personal panel to check in detail, age, 20 years old, height, 188 centimeters, charm, 92, physique, 120, normal human limit is 100, stamina, 120, normal human limit is 100, entries, double cashback, entry effect, all reasonable expenses will be refunded double. Extreme physique, entry effect, from this moment on, you are the ceiling of human physique. Solidification, entry effect, your physical condition will always be at its peak. eye of truth entry effect unlocks the mysterious power of the door to truth all buried disguises will be exposed under its gaze points 531 huasha coins 3 ,892,070,718 3,800,000,000 huasha coins he couldn’t help but gasp in shock this was undoubtedly an astonishing amount of wealth recalling the days when lay bus was said to be destitute with only a cold 40 billion left in his wallet now he also had nearly 40 billion why did it feel so warm After a while, Wang Chen slowly shifted his gaze away from that tempting balance number. Solidification and eye of truth from the panel description were clearly invaluable practical entries. Solidification would ensure that his physical data would not decline. After all, as one ages, men generally start to feel their bodies weaken. After 30, and bodily functions often gradually decline. But with the solidification entry he could maintain his peak condition at all times. With the existence of the solidification entry he would no longer have to worry about this aspect. The eye of truth was even more useful, the lies and disguises of the world would be laid bare before it, and he would no longer have to worry about being deceived, Wang Chen’s expression unconsciously relaxed as he stood up and returned to the master bedroom. He saw a faint golden light flash in his eyes, and Xinxingya’s information instantly appeared clearly on the system panel, name, Xinxingya age, 24 height, 170 cm charm, 95 physique, 82 favorability, 99 skills, beginner singing, advanced etiquette, intermediate yoga. A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Chen’s eyes, he truly did not expect Xinxingya’s favorability towards him to be so high. From the system’s introduction, it was easy for Wang Chen to understand that the higher the favorability points, the more loyal the person would be. Once favorability reached 100 points, it would no longer decrease. Similarly, the lower the favorability, the greater the malice in their heart towards him. And vice versa. Xinxingya’s favorability of 99 points left him both astonished and delighted. Wang Chen stood quietly in place, his thoughts surging like a tide. He knew well that with the eye of truth, his world would become clearer and more transparent. Back on the bed, Wang Chen was filled with affection as he gently kissed Xinxingya’s soft lips. Xinxingya seemed to be touched by the sudden display of intimacy, instantly wrapping around him like an octopus. Their bodies, embraced tightly, as if wanting to merge each other into the depths of their souls. The sun was high in the sky. Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, spilling onto Wang Chen and Xinxingya’s bed. Wang Chen woke up first. Glancing at the time, it was already half past twelve. Looking at Shen Xingya, who was still sound asleep in his arms, his heart was filled with tenderness. He gently brushed aside the hair from her forehead and placed a kiss on it. This subtle. Action, however, still startled Shen Xingya awake. She opened her eyes groggily and mumbled, what are you doing, waking me up so early? The sun is already shining on your backside, little lazy cat, Wang Chen said with a smile. Shen Xingya. Huffed in dissatisfaction, snuggling back into Wang Chen’s embrace and said in a spoiled tone, just let me sleep a little longer, you wore me out last night. Ahem. Wang Chen’s face turned slightly red as he picked up the guest room phone and said to Xinxingya, so, what do you want for breakfast? You can order it yourself. In Magic City, Haolong Plaza, known as the premier shopping center in Magic City, it is indeed a name that resonates. It houses the most comprehensive collection of luxury brand stores in all of Hua Gua. As the top shopping center in Magic City, Haolong Plaza gathers over 100 renowned luxury brands from around the world such as Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Chanel, and many more. Wealthy people love. to shop here. The sweltering summer heat was dispelled by the cool air inside the mall, and Xinxingya was dressed in a refreshing outfit. However, her legs felt a bit awkward as she walked. She clung to Wang Chen’s arm like a little bird, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of confusion. Brother Wang Chen, what are we doing at the mall? Since you performed well last night, you can buy anything you like in the mall, Wang Chen replied casually. Xinxingya’s cheeks instantly flushed with a shy red, and she shook her head slightly, saying in a delicate voice, I don’t want to, just spending time with you is enough. What a silly girl. Just right, I also want to buy some new clothes, you can help me pick. Wang Chen, said somewhat helplessly, hearing Wang Chen’s request, Xinxing’s eyes lit up, her heart filled with joy. Being needed by Wang Chen and participating in his life, even if it was just choosing clothes, held a different significance for her. Her mind began to race, imagining how Wang Chen would look in different styles of clothing. The two of them then walked to the men’s clothing brand store. With Xinxing’s help, Wang Chen casually chose a few pieces of clothing for changing. Spending $88,000 before taking Xinxingya to the women’s clothing brand store. Welcome to the Dior flagship store. As soon as they stepped through the doors of the Dior flagship store, a smiling sales assistant approached them, politely asking, may I ask what you two are looking to choose? Just browsing for now, Xinxingya replied, feeling a bit restrained on her first visit to such a place. Under Wang Chen’s insistence, Xinxingya eventually set her sights on a dress. Moments later, she emerged from the fitting room wearing a flowing white spaghetti strap gown. The moment she stepped out, both Wang Chen and the store staff were utterly stunned. The white dress transformed her aura, as if she had undergone. A magnificent metamorphosis. The once competent image of a flight attendant was instantly replaced by the noble and elegant demeanor of a wealthy young lady, as if she had switched souls. It was no wonder that these luxury items were priced. So hi. Brother Wang Chen, what do you think? Xinxingya twirled lightly in place, resembling a fairy that had just floated in from a fairy tale realm, radiating charm. The sales assistant wore a professionally sweet smile, praising her. Madam, you truly have an eye for fashion. This outfit looks as if it was tailor-made for you. Wang Chen stroked his chin, scrutinizing her carefully, and replied casually, hmm, it does look quite nice. But this one is too plain, let’s pick. A few more. That one with the pure desire style looks good, he added. Hearing Wang Chen’s praise, Xin Xinya felt a sweet warmth in her heart and responded, alright, I’ll try that one. I’ll be waiting, Wang Chen smiled slightly. Before long, Xin Xinya stepped out of the fitting room again. This time, she wore a luxurious and striking black bodycon dress that perfectly accentuated her tall and flawless figure. Her S-shaped silhouette was on full display, blending sweetness and sensuality, exuding an intoxicating charm. This version of Xinxingya left Wang Chen mesmerized. He nodded in satisfaction, very beautiful, it suits you perfectly. How much is this dress? Xinxingya asked. Madam, this is one of our new summer styles, so the price is a bit higher. This dress is priced at 59,998 yuan, the sales assistant replied with a smile. Xinxingya was taken aback, chuckling awkwardly, I think I’ll look around some more. 59,000. For just. One dress. The price truly made her heart ache. Madam, I really think this dress suits you, wearing this bodycon dress enhances your extraordinary aura, both elegant and understated. Many have purchased this dress, but it’s rare to see someone wear it as beautifully as you do, the sales assistant earnestly complimented, trying to close the sale. But she was speaking from the heart, Xinxingya did look stunning in it. Xinxingya examined herself carefully in the mirror, it was. Indeed beautiful, but the price still made her hesitate. She could only look to Wang Chen for a decision. Wang Chen nodded and said to the sales assistant, wrap this one and the white one together. Certainly, sir, the sales assistant replied, her smile growing even whiter. That will be a total of 79,996 yuan. How would you like to pay? Card. Wang Chen said, handing over his bank card. The two walked out of the Dior flagship store and turned to head to the Chanel store. Let’s me take a look at that bag. Of course, sir. The Chanel sales assistant skillfully retrieved a black bag from the counter and enthusiastically introduced it. This small flat bag is our latest model from Chanel 2018, meticulously crafted by Top. Designers in the industry, made with classic lambskin material. The current selling price is 119,998 yuan, please see if it suits you. Xunxingya took the bag, her eyelids twitching. A bag that dares to sell for over a hundred thousand, looking. Unassuming, she never expected it to be so expensive, exceeding her imagination. Wang Chen nodded as he looked at her. Xinxingya’s outfit paired with this bag looked fashionable and elegant. It really matched. Alright, I’ll buy it. Swipe. The card. Wang Chen directly took out his bank card. Okay, sir, I’ll wrap it up for you right away. The salesgirl smiled brightly and quickly took out a packaging bag to start wrapping. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 119,998 yuan, double cashback 239,996 yuan. Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning 12 points.The system’s announcement timely echoed in Wang Chen’s mind. After leaving the store, Xinxingya linked her arm with Wang Chen while carrying the shopping bag feeling as if she were dreaming. In just a short span of a few minutes, they had splurged nearly 200,000. Everything felt so unreal, like a dream. Let’s check out that store. Wang Chen’s eyes lit up as he glanced at Xinxingya’s delicate wrist and said, Since we’re at the Cartier flagship store, let’s buy a watch too. Aren’t flight attendants supposed to wear watches? I see you don’t seem to have one. As a flight attendant, she couldn’t use her phone. Or other communication tools on the plane. Watches became the choice for most flight attendants. Xinxingya naturally wore one while working, but it wasn’t a branded watch, so there was no need to wear it when going out. Hello, sir, welcome, to the Cartier flagship store. How can I assist you today? The Cartier salesgirl greeted Wang Chan and Xinxingya with a beaming smile. As a Cartier sales associate, she immediately recognized the Patek Philippe Starry Sky 6104 watch on Wang. Chen’s wrist. Wang Chen pointed at Xinxingya and said to the salesgirl, pick a watch suitable for her. No problem, sir. Please have a seat here and I’ll take this lady to choose a watch right away. The salesgirl guided Wang Chen to sit in the lounge area before leading Xinxingya to the counter. The counter displayed a variety of stylish watches, adorned with diamonds of various sizes, dazzling to the eye. Xinxingya was instantly captivated. At that moment, the salesgirl picked up a delicate watch and introduced it, ma ‘am, do you like this watch? This watch is from our Cartier Ballon Blue WJBB0082 series, featuring a three-dimensional design on the bezel, sapphire glass mirror, top-quality diamonds, and exquisite setting craftsmanship, showcasing ultimate luxury. This series of watches has become popular worldwide due to its simple, elegant design style and high-quality craftsmanship, making it comfortable to wear and fitting snugly on the wrist. The salesgirl enthusiastically took the watch off, saying, Let me put it on you to try, your hand shape is particularly beautiful, and it will definitely enhance your look. Xinxingya looked at the watch on her wrist, it was indeed beautiful. How much is this watch? The salesgirl replied with a beaming smile, the price of this watch is 29,6880. Xinxingya’s hand trembled, instinctively wanting to take the watch off. Do you like this watch? Wang Chen appeared by her side without her noticing. Xinxingya hesitated for a moment and then said, I do like it, but it’s too expensive. Swipe the card, let’s pay. Wang Chen didn’t hesitate and directly handed his bank card to the salesgirl. Alright, sir, I’ll wrap it. Up for you right away. The salesgirl was overjoyed. This transaction was too easy. This was a watch worth 300,000. Usually, even wealthy people would think long and hard before buying a watch. Unlike Wang Chen, who was so straightforward. How about we choose a cheaper one? As the salesgirl took the watch to wrap it, Xinxingya said to Wang Chen. This was 300,000, even selling her wouldn’t be worth that much. Since you like it, let’s buy it. Consider it. A celebration for you becoming my girlfriend. Wang Chen smiled, his lips curling up as he looked at her. Xinxingya’s face flushed, and she softly said, alright, okay. Her eyes curved into crescent moons, her face filled with joy. As the payment was successfully processed, the sales assistant handed the bank card and receipt to Wang Chen, saying, thank you very much for your support of Cartier. We hope to see you again next time. Ding! The system detected that the host spent $296,880 and the double cashback is $593 ,760. Ding! The system congratulates the host for earning 29 system points. As night fell, a sleek McLaren P1 sped through the streets of the Magic City. Before long, Wang Chen and Shin Shinya arrived. At a Japanese restaurant, Kurogi, known for its exquisite kaiseki cuisine, it was the best restaurant in the Magic City, though certainly not cheap. The overall decor leaned towards a black theme complemented by warm yellow lighting, exuding an air of elegance and refinement. The interior was meticulously designed, with tatami rooms arranged in an orderly fashion, and the walls adorned with unappreciated ukiyo-e from Japan. A server dressed in traditional Japanese kimono approached, bowed slightly, and led them to a private room. The two casually sat down on the tatami. Just as the server was about to hand over the menu, Wang Chen waved his hand and asked, what are your signature dishes? The server smiled and replied, today we have a tuna sashimi platter, grilled eel, salmon belly rice, and white truffle with wagyu. Let’s have one of each, Wang Chen nodded. The portion sizes of Japanese cuisine are well known, ever since he acquired the extreme physique. his appetite had significantly increased and he was genuinely worried about not ordering enough. The server smiled and nodded and soon brought over tea and appetizers. Before long, exquisite dishes were served one after another. Delicate and small portions. Beef with sea urchin caviar. Foie gras with sesame tofu. Salmon belly rice. Grilled eel. The sashimi platter was particularly eye-catching with the tuna’s firm texture glistening in a light pink hue. The salmon slices a vibrant orange with clear marbling, and the sweet shrimp translucent, seemingly radiating an enticing sheen. However, the flowers inserted on top felt somewhat outdated. Accompanying them was a chef in traditional attire. Holding some unprocessed ingredients, wearing gloves, and preparing dishes on site. See Urchin’s Sushi? Enjoy. Thank you. The chef, with a serious expression, handed it to Wang Chen and soon prepared another sushi on site. Salmon Ro Sushi. Enjoy. Shin Shinya hesitated for a moment before taking the sushi, slightly opening her mouth and gently biting a small piece. After chewing a few times, her eyes instantly lit up as she exclaimed, wow, this is really delicious, the texture is amazing. If you like it, eat more, Wang Shin replied indifferently, he still preferred Chinese cuisine. He could still enjoy it now, but in a few years, after Japan discharges nuclear wastewater, he wouldn’t want to eat seafood from Japanese waters. After the sushi was prepared, the chef continued to make white truffle with wagyu on site. He took out a blowtorch and seared a piece of beef until both sides were slightly charred, placed it on a plate, drizzled it with a special sauce, and sprinkled white truffle slices on top. Instantly, a unique truffle aroma wafted through the air. White truffle with wagyu, please enjoy. Xinxingya didn’t miss this rare opportunity and took many photos from the side. Shooing on the tender beef, she gazed dreamily and asked, Do you rich people usually eat this? Of course not, what are you thinking? Wang Xin chuckled, I’m just an ordinary person, how could I eat this every meal? I chose this place because I wanted. to take you out to eat. After all, I thought you might not have tried this restaurant. Just right, I haven’t tried it either, so I brought you to give it a shot. Although in this life he had become wealthy and could indulge freely, eating, whatever he wanted, Wang Chen always felt that being detached from the food of the working class carried a hint of superficiality. This meal was just to taste something new die in his heart, it was not as satisfying as a bowl of spicy hot pot from a street side stall. After finishing the meal, the bill came to 35,860 Hua Xia coins. The next day, at 1 o’clock in the morning, Wang Chen dropped Xinxingya off at the airport in the Magic City. At this moment, Xinxingya had returned to her former flight attendant appearance, looking aloof and dignified. Wang Chen, I’m leaving, Xinxingya said, taking the initiative to hug Wang Chen, feeling extremely reluctant. However, her flight had already been changed, and asking for leave again was not very realistic, she still needed this job. Wang Chen’s expression was serious as he looked at Xinxingya and said, Xinxingya, if you don’t want to work, I can help you buy a house nearby. You can do what you want without wasting time on work. Hmm, let’s forget it for now, we can talk about it later, Xinxingya thought for a long time and still refused. Wangqian was still in school and he didn’t have much time to accompany her. It was better to keep working with Li Na and other close friends around rather than guarding an empty house alone. So, she felt it was better to keep working. Besides, who knows what the future holds. Alright then. Wangqian leaned in close to Xinxingya’s ear and whispered, Call me if you miss me. Got it. Xinxingya said with a hint of melancholy, you’re all alone in the magic city, just be honest, do whatever you want, just don’t let me find out. Otherwise, I’ll be angry. She knew Wang Chen. Couldn’t possibly have only her as a woman. It was better not to see or know. Wang Chen smiled. What a joke, he had been reborn, how could he listen to her? That would be a waste of his rebirth. However, to reassure her, he naturally agreed. Wholeheartedly, Wang Chen stood in place, watching Xinxingya walk into the airport. Then he turned around and started the McLaren P1, driving towards an apartment. Wang Chen drove his yellow McLaren P1 slowly into the underground parking lot of a high-end apartment. This was the apartment Wang Chen had rented again for Zhang Rou. The apartment was located in the Yangpu district of the Magic City, right next to the Magic City University of Finance and Economics, showcasing its advantageous location. This was considered one of the better apartments in the Magic City. The environment was much better than the previous community, a stark contrast. However, matching this was the slightly expensive rent. At a staggering 30,000 per month, it was enough to deter most ordinary workers. Wang Chen stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the 22nd floor. After reaching the 12th floor, he skillfully entered the password, and with a ding, the door to the room opened. Zhang Rou had told Wang Chen the password as soon as she moved in. At 2 o’clock in the morning, the room was pitch black. Wang Chen gently pressed the light switch in the living room, and the soft light instantly dispelled the darkness. He walked straight to the bedroom and saw Zhang Rou immersed in a sweet dream. Her hair was casually scattered on the pillow, looking a bit messy yet beautiful, adding a touch of lazy charm that surprised Wang Chen. What caught him off guard was that the usually aloof Zhang Rou was wearing a cute little bunny pajama set, the strong contrast making him pause for a moment. A glimmer of gold flashed in Wang Chen’s eyes as he activated the true eye, curious about Zhang Rou’s feelings for him. Soon, Zhang Rou’s information appeared on the system panel. name, Zhang Rou, age, 23, height, 165 centimeters, charm, 91, physique, 86, affection, 93, skills, intermediate painting, intermediate sales skills, the affection level was quite good, it seemed he had left a deep impression on her, the corners of Wang Chen’s mouth involuntarily lifted, he really loved this attribute, the glaring light woke Zhang Rou up, she rubbed her eyes, looking at Wang Chen, in surprise, and said, darling, what are you doing here, it’s the middle of the night. Wang Chin stepped forward and hugged Zhang Rou, apologizing, I missed you, so I came to see you. I missed you too, darling. Zhang Rou glanced at the time. It was two in the morning. Why didn’t you give me a heads up before you came? You scared me. It’s my fault for coming so late. Let’s sleep, Wang Chin replied. Ah, what are you doing? As he spoke, Wang Chin flipped onto the bed, giving. Zhang Rou no chance to refuse. An hour later, the room was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere. Zhang Rou, lazily nestled in Wang Chen’s arms, breathed in the fresh air deeply, the sheets marked with traces of sweat, leaving behind patches of stains. Usually not one to exercise, she now lacked the strength to even move a finger. It took a while for her to gradually recover. She slightly raised her hand, gently drawing circles on Wang Chen’s chest and with a hint of a spoiled tone. Said, darling, let me off the hook this time. I’ll take a day off tomorrow and we can work out together. Wang Chen held her soft, fragrant body tightly, burying his nose in her hair, savoring the enchanting scent, and softly replied, Alright. I won’t bother you anymore, but your skills are really rusty. Just wait and see how I teach you tomorrow. The next day at noon, sunlight streamed through the window onto the sofa in the living room. Ah. Wang Chen sat on the sofa, frowning. As he looked at the kitchen, where thick smoke was occasionally billowing out along with Zhang Rou’s screams. He couldn’t help but wonder, is cooking really that hard? Zhang Rou had gone out early in the morning to buy a lot of ingredients. claiming she wanted him to try her heartfelt breakfast. After a morning of chaos, Wang Xin shook his head helplessly, realizing that a heartfelt breakfast was off the table. Fine, let’s have lunch instead. He took out his phone and chose a nearby restaurant with a high rating. He placed an order, paying 688 yuan. Meanwhile, in the kitchen, Zhang Rou looked at the scene before her in despair. She hadn’t expected cooking to be so difficult, the cooking videos online seemed so simple. Where? Did it go wrong? She dumped a lump of blackened, unrecognizable food into the trash can. Dejected, she walked out of the kitchen and said to Wang Chen, Darling, I’m sorry, I messed it up. How about we order takeout? I knew it, I’ve already ordered takeout. It should be here soon, Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, lounging leisurely on the sofa. Oof. I refuse to believe I can’t do it. Next time you come over, I will definitely succeed, Zhang Rou said, a surge of determination. Rising within her as she silently encouraged herself. She remembered her mother telling her that to win a man’s heart, one must first win his stomach. Perfect, I’ll stay here a few more days and see if your cooking skills improve, Wang Chen said. Zhang Rou’s expression stiffened, and she playfully blinked, no problem, you’ll get to eat my heartfelt breakfast tomorrow. Then she hurried into the bathroom to wash up quickly. To Wang Chen’s surprise, Zhang Rou’s cooking skills seemed to have been magically enhanced, improving day by day. At the same time, her gaming skills were also becoming increasingly proficient through constant practice. This made Wang Chen feel more and more at home in the apartment. He decided to stay a few more days at Zhang Rou’s place. Although staying at the Bulgari hotel was convenient, nothing compared to the comfort of home. On the living room sofa, Wang Chin pressed down on Zhang Rou with one hand, contemplating as he sat. A glimmer of gold flashed in his eyes. He looked down at the busy Zhang Rou. Suddenly, a light blue screen appeared before him. Name, Zhang Rou, age, 23, height, 165 centimeters, charm, 91, physique, 86, affection level, 96, skills, intermediate painting. Intermediate sales skills, intermediate gaming, it seems that the hard work of these past few days hasn’t been in vain, Wang Chen thought to himself. Living in hotels all the time wasn’t a solution, it seemed he needed to buy a house for himself. Staying at Zhang Rou’s place had been so comfortable that it sparked his desire to buy a home. He still had two years left in college, and he would have plenty of time in the future in the Magic City, and he couldn’t possibly stay in the student dormitory forever, right? However, when the time comes, he still has to buy a set for both Zhang Rou and Xinxingya. But for now, it’s not necessary. Wang Chen doesn’t mind, with the system, his money will only keep increasing. Moreover, with the housing prices in Magic City, buying a few more properties for appreciation is also a good idea. After all, in the future, the housing prices in Magic City remain strong. Just like that, more than half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Wang Chen had also stayed at Zhang Rose Place for over half a month. During this time, he would occasionally return to the Bulgari Hotel to accompany Xinxingya, who had flown to Magic City. However, their time together was. always short-lived. Xin Xinyao would soon have to fly back to Rong province, which filled Wang Chen’s heart with regret and reluctance. During this period, Xin Xinyao’s best friend, Chen Mengiao, also kept contacting Wang Chen on Feixin. Every day, she would send good morning and good night messages, calling him husband and brother. This was a stark contrast to her initially aloof and quiet demeanor. The difference was striking. With Chen Mengiao’s efforts, their relationship gradually warmed up, and today she even took a special leave to come to Magic City. Seeing her trying so hard to entice him, Wang Chen decided to give her a chance. It all depended on whether she could seize it. The next day. 9 in the morning. The summer heat made people feel irritable. At Pudong Airport in Magic City, people came and went, most of them in a hurry. Husband, I’m over here. As soon as Chen Mengiao walked out, she waved at Wang Chen. Her delicate oval face and bright, almond-shaped eyes were full of charm. Standing at 171cm, she wore a tight-fitting purple dress. The material of the dress was as smooth as silk, hugging her body closely and showcasing her curvy figure perfectly. On her feet were a pair of black, stiletto heels, her long legs straight and elegant, making her appear graceful and outstanding. She carried a small black suitcase and rushed straight into Wang Chen’s arms. Wang Chen felt a wave of fragrance as her soft body tightly embraced him. He reached out to wrap his arms around her slender waist, and Chen Mengiao, unfazed by the gazes of those around them, clung to Wang Chen’s arm, chatting and laughing as they walked outside, without Xin Xingya and her other friends around. Chen Mengiao seemed particularly different. Although she knew there was more than one woman by Wang Chen’s side, she still hoped for a pleasant date with him. To outsiders, this scene looked no different from an ordinary couple. The two got. Into the car. Ignition, one step on the gas. Boom. The car smoothly drove out under Wang Chen’s control. Wang Chen activated his true eye to look at Chen Mengiao. A light screen instantly appeared before him. Name, Chen Mengiao, age, 24. Height, 171 centimeters, charm, 93, physique, 82, favorability, 78, skills, advanced etiquette, advanced fashion, advanced makeup, with a self-assessed favorability of 78, she truly deserves it, what a good sister. Wang Chen felt secretly pleased. Husband, what are we going to do later? This is my first time riding in such a luxury car. Chen Mengiao exclaimed. She sat in the passenger seat of the McLaren P1, curiously looking around at the car’s interior. There will be plenty of opportunities like this in the future. Wang Chen glanced at Chen Mengiao and said, you haven’t had breakfast yet, right? Let’s grab a bite first, then I’ll take you to experience what you want. He drove the McLaren P1, taking Chen Mengiao to their usual spot, the International Finance Center. After having breakfast, the two quickly arrived in front of an exaggeratedly designed glass building. Inside, luxury goods were abundant, with countless major brands. Chen Mengiao stood in, front of the mall, looking up with eyes full of longing and anticipation. Have you been here before? Wang Chen asked upon seeing her reaction. No. Chen Mengiao shook her head and said, I just passed by here before and browsed outside the store. The prices here are too high, I didn’t dare to go in. This is not something I can afford. Wang Chen didn’t say anything more, but drove the car into the underground parking lot of the mall. After turning off the engine, the two took the elevator to the first floor of the mall. At this time, the spacious mall appeared somewhat desolate. Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Cartier, Dior, Versace. Chen Mengiao’s gaze was firmly captivated by the luxurious boutiques before her, her eyes barely. concealing her excitement her heart raced as if she were in a beautiful dream at that moment how many times had she come here to shop only able to look from afar she never imagined that today she could fulfill this long-held dream it’s felt so real surely not many women could resist this place what do you want the most wang chen asked casually chen mengel looked at the luxurious brand stores she wanted everything but could only think about it i don’t know she shook her head then how about this choose anything within a million really honey Chen Mengiao appeared very excited. Wang Chen opened his arms as if to embrace the entire mall, you can choose any brand here, but the limit is 1 million. How about that? Are you satisfied? 1 million is not a small amount. Although Wang Chen was financially strong, he couldn’t just let a woman spend without restraint, otherwise, wouldn’t he become a fool? Honey, I really love you. Muah. Chen. Mengiao was very pleased with Wang Chen’s arrangement, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek. For their first date, Wang Chen could buy her such expensive things. She was already very satisfied. In that case, let’s go to the store you like and start shopping. Wang Chen’s lips curled up slightly, a smile on his face as he asked, which brand store are we going to first? Chanel. Chen Meng -El looked around and pointed decisively at the Chanel store. After all, no. Woman could resist the allure of Chanel. Alright, let’s go. Chen Meng-El linked her arm with Wang Chen’s and walked towards the Chanel store. Welcome to the Chanel flight ship store. As soon as they entered, a young Chanel sales associate. approached them with a smile, saying, Good morning, sir and madam. How may I assist you today? The sales associate greeted them politely. Wang Chen waved his hand and said to Chen Mengiao, You go ahead and choose. Chen Mengiao felt a bit shy, as she began to browse the store. Madam, this dress is our summer new arrival from Chanel. I believe it will look great on you, the sales associate said, stepping forward to introduce it. Would you like to try it on? With your figure, I’m sure. You’ll look stunning in it. Chen Mengiao looked at the light pink dress, it was indeed beautiful. She instinctively asked, how much is this dress? This dress is a summer new arrival, so the price is a bit higher. The current price is 18,888. Yuan, the sales associate replied with a smile. Why don’t you try it on and see if you like it? If you like it, just try it on, Wang Chin said casually from the side. Then I’ll go to the fitting room, Chen Mengiao said, a bit startled. Buy the price. Although Wang Chin had given her a million to spend freely, she still found it hard to accept that a dress could cost so much. Moments later, Chen Mengiao emerged wearing the light pink dress. Her fair skin paired with the light pink. Dress made her look exceptionally radiant, showcasing her body curves perfectly. Her long legs peeked out from the hem of the dress, and every move she made was filled with endless allure. Wang Chen nodded in praise, you really look beautiful. Madam, you look absolutely stunning in that dress, as if it was custom made just for you. Look, everyone around is drawn to you, the sales associate immediately complimented, stepping forward to help Chen Mengiao adjust the hem and neckline. Of the dress. Chen Mengiao noticed the attention from those around her, especially Wang Chen’s admiration, she looked at herself in the mirror as if she had truly transformed into a wealthy heiress. Then, under the enthusiastic recommendation of the sales assistant, Chen Mengiao selected a few Chanel outfits. She bought several bottles of perfume and a limited edition Chanel handbag. These combinations made her appear even more elegant, blending fashion and sensuality. Wang Chen saw that Chen Mengiao had chosen enough and nodded to the sales assistant, saying, that’s all, how much is it? Sir, the total for these items is 462 ,888 yuan. How would you like to pay? By card. All right, sir, please hold on a moment. The sales assistant took the bank card, her smile growing even more radiant. She had served many wealthy clients, but few were as generous and open-handed as Wang Chen. Sir, here is your bank card, please keep it safe. The sales assistant handed it over with both hands. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 462 ,888 yuan, double cashback of 925,776 yuan. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 46 system points. Thank you for your visit. The two then walked out of the Chanel flagship store and turned to enter the Dior flagship store. The lighting inside Dior was soft yet bright, reflecting the charming luster of various fashionable items. With the enthusiastic and attentive service and recommendations from. The sales assistant, Chen Mengiao effortlessly picked up three items, spending a total of 128 ,500 yuan. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 128 ,500 yuan, double cashback of 25,700 yuan. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning. 12 system points. Let’s go, let’s browse elsewhere. Chen Mengiao carefully carried her items, her expression as if she were in a dream, though her heart felt a bit hesitant. While she was somewhat materialistic, she was not the type of woman who was insatiable. Today’s spending was already quite substantial, far exceeding her usual shopping standards. She felt quite satisfied. Balenciaga? Chen Mengel looked at the Balenciaga store in front of her, its uniquely designed sign, stirring something within her. She turned to Wang Chen and said, Let’s check out Balenciaga. Sure. Welcome to Balenciaga. How can I assist you? As soon as they stepped inside, a unique fashion atmosphere enveloped them. The store’s decor was ingeniously designed, with a cool-tone layout creating a shopping environment that was both stylish and slightly aloof. The sales assistant immediately approached them with a professional smile. I’d like to see your stockings, Chen Mengiao. Said, her face flushed, her expression slightly shy and a bit bashful. Wang Chen’s previously calm gaze lit up instantly upon hearing this. He finally understood. Balenciaga’s stockings were a standout in the world of hosiery. Stockings with. Letters, no man could resist such temptation. It’s good to have a girl like her, understanding and considerate. Alright, ma’am. The sales assistant took out various exquisitely packaged stockings from the counter. black, white, gray, nude, lace, everything was available. Wang Chen waved his hand casually and said, I’ll take them all, give me a few of each. I want that one too. Chen Mengiao couldn’t help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation, wondering when she would ever wear so many stockings. Men often lose their rationality when faced with certain items. Most men are like this, their eyes lighting up at the sight of stockings. That’s enough, let’s get a pair of high heels too. Chen Mengiao shook her head helplessly and picked up a pair of black high heels with red soles, handing them to the sales assistant. With so many stockings, she would be wearing them until next year. These are consumables, buy a few more to have on hand, in case you need them later. Wangchen still felt unsatisfied and continued to the sales assistant. Pack up those polka dot ones too. Chen Mengiao suddenly thought of something, her face turning pale, a wave of inexplicable unease washing over her. She suddenly worried whether she had walked into a tiger’s DE and IS it still possible to escape now? In the end, Wangchen selected more than 20 pairs of stockings before stopping. Sir, these stockings and high heels total 86,500 yuan. How would you like to pay? Card. Wang Chan replied calmly. After the payment was completed, the sales assistant smiled and handed over the bank card, saying, Sir, please keep your bank card safe. Welcome to visit Balenciaga again. After leaving the Balenciaga flagship store, the two stroll through the mall’s corridor, surrounded by well-known brand stores. Their figures soon reappeared inside the Louis Vuitton store. Hello, ma’am, this necklace is our latest style from Louis Vuitton-ness. year, made entirely of 18k gold, meticulously crafted, with 144 diamonds embedded in the pendant, totaling approximately 2.3 carats. The design inspiration for this necklace comes from the classic monogram floral pattern, exuding luxury and artistry, the sales assistant introduced in detail and professionally, currently, the retail price of this necklace is 266,600 yuan. As she spoke, she slowly turned the necklace, allowing Chen Mengiao to appreciate its beauty from all angles. Wang Chen remained calm and softly said, card. Chen Mengiao wore the necklace, looking at her sparkling self in the mirror. She truly felt like a princess. The two continued to shop in the mall, buying everything they liked as if they were. Grocery shopping. Under Chen Mengiao’s careful selection, she also coordinated several outfits for Wang Chan from top to bottom. The total expenditure was 599,800 yuan. Ding.

Points, 712. Hua Xia coins. 3893-881-828.Wang Chen thought to himself, it seems that buying a house needs to be prioritized. Due to the excessive purchases, Wang Chen’s McLaren P1 could no longer accommodate everything. He could only leave his phone number and address for the mall to deliver the items to the Bulgari Hotel. Approaching noon, the two exited the International Finance Center shopping mall. Wang Chen took Chen Mengiao to a high-end Western restaurant for lunch. The total expenditure was 12,800 yuan. After the meal, Wang Chin took out his phone and dialed Butler Lin’s number. Soon, the call was answered. Hello, Mr. Wang, what do you need? Butler Lin’s respectful voice came from the other end of the line. Help me contact a real estate agent. Okay, I will send the information to your phone shortly. After Wang Chin hung up, he thought that some good properties were not accessible to ordinary agents. High-end agents could provide wealthy clients with comprehensive, customized services. They could also assist in handling complex financial and legal matters during the transaction process. To avoid trouble, Wang Chen had to contact Bulgari again for assistance. Soon, the information was sent to his phone, and the address was conveniently located not far from the International Finance Center shopping mall. Wang Chen pulled Chen Mengiao back to the car, and she asked in confusion, what are we doing now? Buying a house. Wang Chen replied, starting the car and driving into the crowded traffic of the Magic City. Three minutes later, Lu Jiazui, Magic City, next to Binjiang Avenue, the Kafka Seaview No. 1 sales center. This area is filled with luxurious commercial districts, where every inch of land is precious. Wang Chen parked the car by the roadside, and the staff, who had been on high alert, immediately came forward to greet him. At the front was a middle-aged man dressed in a black suit, his hair neatly combed. Behind him stood a row of men and women in uniforms, all smiling at Wang Chen. After Wang Chen and Chen Mengiao got out of the car, the middle-aged man quickly stepped forward, extending his hands warmly towards Wang Chen, his face adorned with a professional. Smile as he said, you must be Mr. Wang, the esteemed guest contacted by Bulgari. I didn’t expect you to be so young, truly impressive. I’m Xiao Yan, the sales manager introduced by Butler Lin. Thank you very much for choosing our Kafka Seaview. Number 1. I will take you to the property next. May I ask if there’s a particular layout you have in mind? The Bulgari private butler had directly scheduled a property viewing for them. They naturally knew Wang Chan’s basic information, as he was a major client who had booked a Bulgari suite for a month. For a high-quality customer like Wang Chen, Shaoyan dared not be negligent. After receiving the news, he hurriedly brought his sales team to the entrance to welcome Wang Chen. Fortunately, they arrived just in time before Wang Chen. Too kind. Wang Chen replied lightly, just take me to see your best layout. In the reception room, Shaoyan took out his treasured longjing tea, handing it to his secretary to brew. He pulled out a tablet, flipping through relevant materials before handing it to Wang Chen, saying, Mr. Wang, our Kafka’s CD number one has been very popular since its launch in 2012. It is located in a prime area between Lujiazwi and the Riverside, west of Riverside Avenue facing the Pujang River, offering a panoramic view of the century-old scenery on both sides of the river, with the Buns International Architecture in full view, a truly unique scenic advantage. The community is well-equipped with nearby hospitals, shopping malls, and other living facilities, with a green area reaching 12,400 square meters. Xiaoyan smiled slightly, the community also features dual clubhouses, equipped with indoor and outdoor swimming. pools, multifunctional halls, fitness and massage facilities, and entertainment amenities, providing residents with a rich array of leisure and entertainment options. Mr. Wang, as you can see, Arcofco Sea View No. 1 includes various large, layouts of 4-bedroom, 5-bedroom, and 6 -bedroom units, with areas ranging from 308 square meters to 1080 square meters. The current average price is around 1.6 million. You could say that in the entire Magic City, there are hardly a few properties. That can compare with Arcofco Sea View No. 1. Manager Li confidently showcased the layout plans on the tablet to Wang Chen. Mr. Wang, Ms. Chen, please enjoy the tea. The secretary brought over two cups of tea, speaking softly. Mr. Wang, please try this, it’s my treasured pre-rain Longjing. Good tea. Wang Chen reached out to take it, taking a small sip and nodding slightly. For him, it felt no different from ordinary tea. At least he couldn’t tell the difference. With an average price of 1.6 million, buying a small 300 square meter unit would only cost a little over 40 million. It was like a lottery ticket. The prices of houses in Lu Jiazui had remained high even in later years. Now, whether for personal residence or investment, it was a good time to buy. Compared to the ubiquitous Tang Chen e-pin online, Kafka’s Seaview No. 1 appeared much more understated and luxurious. At least it had a certain prestige when mentioned. Chen Mengiao sat aside, watching. Manager Li and Wang Chen chat happily, feeling a mix of anxiety and fear. An average price of 1.6 million for a house, even in the best area of the Magic City, seemed outrageous to her. Wang Chen would definitely not buy the smallest unit, she feared that the last available unit would cost tens of millions. The key point was that Wang Chen seemed very agreeable to this price. She truly couldn’t understand the world of the wealthy, which was extravagantly unimaginable. Mr. Wang, have you found a layout you like? If not, I can take you to see it in person, after all, it’s not as intuitive as seeing it on video, manager Xiao smiled and said.asa sales manager, it is usually the sales team that takes clients to view properties. However, Wang Chen was introduced by Bulgari, making him a rare high-quality client with a great chance of closing a deal. Perhaps even the penthouse at Zhonglian Hai Jing No. 1 could be sold today. If that happens, the commission would be substantial. It’s no wonder manager Xiao was so proactive. Let’s go directly to see this top-floor six-bedroom unit, Wang Chen said, pointing to a property type on the video, his expression calm. For Wang Chen, if he could buy the best, he wouldn’t. Settle for less. He wasn’t short on money. Moreover, he had taken a liking to this top-floor duplex. a 1080 square meter sky mansion. Located on the top floor of the building, it offered a panoramic view of the entire magic city. Chen Mengiao was taken aback. She didn’t expect Wang Chen to directly request to see this 1080 square meter six-bedroom unit. This was a property worth over a hundred million. She wouldn’t even dare to dream about it. Chen Mengiao picked up the teacup in front of her, took a sip, and steadied her emotions. All right, Mr. Wang, I’ll take you to see it right away, manager Xiao said, his face lighting up. Wang Chen was indeed not an ordinary person. He came in asking to see the penthouse right away. He stood up and said, This way, please. This unit is located on the 45th floor. Wang Chen followed manager Li’s lead as they made their way to the building. The building was grand and towering, like a sharp sword piercing the clouds. Soon, they entered the building. The living room was luxuriously decorated, with the bulbs of the crystal chandelier flickering, casting light reflections onto the walls and floor, creating patches of light. The entire living room seemed to be enveloped. In the luster of gold and diamonds, dazzling to the point of being hard to look at. Managerly introduced, all our units come with private elevator access, ensuring the owner’s privacy and convenience while also reflecting the exclusive, prestige of high-end residences. Please, go ahead, manager Xiao said, pressing the button for the 45th floor. The elevator was bright, clean, and spacious enough for more than 10 people. In no time, they arrived at the 45th floor. Ding! As Wangchen stepped out of the elevator, he was greeted by a large black door. The door was intricately patterned, embedded with some unknown gemstones, exuding a sense of heaviness. Manager Xiao stepped forward to input the password and said. This door was designed by a world-renowned designer and is made entirely of expensive stone materials, costing over three million to manufacture. Mr. Wang, Ms. Chen, please come in. Manager Xiao opened the door, stepping aside and slightly, bowing as he spoke. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen stepped inside and his eyes instantly brightened. The luxurious decor inside complemented the view of the Huangpu River outside, creating a refreshing atmosphere. Wang Chen walked to the window, spread his arms, and savored the unique perspective from high above. At a height of 45 floors, nearly 200 meters, it was a true overlook of the magic city. Chen Mengiao followed Wang Chen into the room, immediately stunned by the luxurious decor and the spacious living room. And there was not just one such living room. The opulent living room and the night view of both banks of the Huangpu River intertwined, sketching a captivating picture. Chen Mengiao felt dazed, the scene, before her completely overturned her previous understanding. She never imagined that someone could live in such a large, luxurious house. What was her current few dozen square meters of living space? A doghouse? Chen Mengiao unconsciously walked, to the panoramic glass window, reaching out to touch the night view outside. The Oriental Pearl Tower and other iconic buildings of the Magic City appeared before her, dreamlike. This scene deeply stimulated her. Everything that happened today, made Chen Mengiao yearn for more, this was the life she wanted. She wanted to be the mistress of this house. She no longer wanted to worry about money. She wanted to stand at the pinnacle of the magic city, to be the woman everyone envied. But all of this hinged on winning over Wang Chen Da’i and Chen Mengiao’s mind, an image unconsciously surfaced of her and Wang Chen indulging in pleasure within this house, eventually stepping into the hall of marriage and growing old together. Such fanciful. Thoughts, like a dream. Mr. Wang, this is the top floor of our Zhongli on hygiene number one. You can sit here, enjoy a glass of red wine, and overlook the scenery on both sides of the Pujang River. When it comes to river views, Zhongliang Hai Jing, number one has never lost. Over here, the interior is equipped with an oversized luxury heated swimming pool, allowing you and your wife to experience the utmost enjoyment without leaving home during your leisure time. Mr. Wang, please follow. Me. This 300 square meter terrace landscape was designed exclusively by a world-renowned designer for Zhongliang Hai Jing number one, with flowers and plants meticulously crafted by the master. The spacious area provides ample room for you to host. Gatherings with friends and family. It also comes with a professional telescope, allowing you to see stars that are light-years away from the comfort of your home. With an impressive 10 80 square meters of space, a ceiling height of 6 meters, 6 parking spaces, dual kitchens, a private collection area, a low-key luxurious reception room, and bathrooms and furniture from European luxury brands, along with smart home features, a private gym, and a billiard room, you can enjoy top-notch services without stepping outside. Moreover, your neighbors are all celebrities from various fields, including top-tier stars. This is the true palace under the sky, a place that belongs only to true kings. Mr. Wang, as long as you purchase this house, all of this will belong to you. You can enjoy fine wine with this beautiful lady by your side tonight on the terrace, admiring the scenery of both banks of the Huangpu River. The entire introduction took half an hour. Manager Zhao’s presentation was professional and full of passion, making Chen Mengiao feel that she truly belonged here. Who said this house was expensive? Where is it expensive? Not at all. This house is worth every penny, but unfortunately, she could. Only dream about it. With a unit price of 160,000 for 1080 square meters, the price would exceed 200 million. Let alone buying a house, she couldn’t even afford the property management fees. Mr. Wang, what do you think? Does this house meet your needs? Manager Xiao asked, looking at Wang Chen, who stood by the window with his hands behind his back, seemingly lost in thought. Wang Chen gazed out the window, somewhat distracted. The mansion he could only view online in his past. Life was now just a small target of 200 million for him. In his previous life, after working hard for half a lifetime, he had only managed to buy a small apartment of less than 100 square meters with his parents’ help, and that had drained half of his parents’ life savings. Ridiculous. Sad. Regrettable. Seeing that Wang Chen had not responded for a long time, manager Zhao’s smile faded slightly, feeling a weight in his heart. It seemed, Wang Chen was not too satisfied with this house. Understandably so. A small target of nearly 200 million. Even if Wang Sikon came, he would probably think it over several times before daring to make a purchase. Sigh. Manager Xiao sighed inwardly, realizing that his efforts today might be in vain. The building king was afraid it wouldn’t sell. If it were truly that easy to sell, it wouldn’t have taken so many years since the opening for Wang Chen to have a chance. It would have been snatched up by other wealthy individuals. Long ago. Mr. Wang, if this layout doesn’t meet your requirements, I can show you other layouts. What do you think? Manager Xiao continued respectfully. After all, Wang Chen was a high-quality client and buying a few hundred square meters of property shouldn’t be a problem. It wouldn’t be a waste of his efforts. How about I introduce you to other layouts that might better meet your needs? No need for introductions, Wang Chen replied, coming back to his senses and waving his hand. Manager Zhao’s heart sank, was he not going to buy? After all, Wang Chen was still quite young. Although his family background was impressive, he looked to be only in his 20s. Other rich second-generation individuals at his age, let. Alone buying such a mansion would struggle to fill up their cars with gas by the end of the month. It’s okay, Mr. Wang. Next time you have time, I can introduce you again. Manager Xiao suppressed the disappointment in his heart, and his smile. Became even more enthusiastic. He dared not show any displeasure to the wealthy, otherwise he wouldn’t know how he would be dealt with. The open sea is not far from here. I want this one, Wang Chen’s voice continued. Manager Xiao, calculate. The total cost for me, give me the lowest price and prepare the contract for full payment. What? Manager Xiao was taken aback, momentarily unable to respond. I said I want this one, full payment, Wang Chen frowned and said. Manager. Zhao’s eyes were filled with surprise as he quickly replied, Mr. Wang, rest assured, I will prepare the contract right away and guarantee you the best discount, absolutely to your satisfaction. You can rest here for now, I will have the relevant paperwork ready shortly, please wait. Manager Xiao hurriedly turned and left the room. Once outside the door, he took out his phone, trying to steady his emotions. Manager Xiao felt his heart racing, his face flushed. If this deal went through, the commission plus his previous savings would be enough to pay off his mortgage. It had been over 10 years. The several million in mortgage debt weighed heavily on him, making it hard to breathe. He truly couldn’t afford to stop for even a moment. He had come from a small county to the bustling metropolis, working hard for so many years. At this moment, he finally felt he truly belonged here. His hand holding the phone was still trembling slightly. He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. Soon, the call connected. Manager Xiao, is there something you need? Manager Xiao stood by the window, feeling the breeze, trying to make his voice sound calmer. Xiao Lu, you need to prepare a quotation right? Away, yes, for the property I brought someone to see. What? Has the client already booked it? A gasp came from the other end of the line. Xiao Lu, how many times have I told you to stay calm in situations like this? What would happen if the client saw you like this? You need to get it over here quickly, we can’t keep the client waiting. Yes, yes, Manager Xiao, I understand, I will send it over right away. Good. Manager Xiao hung up the phone and turned back to the living room. Unable to hide his excitement, respectfully saying to Wang Chen, Mr. Wang, I have arranged everything, the contract will be sent over shortly. Before long, several salespeople in black suits rushed in, holding a thick stack of documents. Manager Xiao quickly stepped forward to greet them. After receiving the documents, he respectfully placed them in front of Wang Chen, his face filled with a warm smile, saying, Mr. Wang, please take a look. The current price for this sky palace. is 166,000 per square meter, totaling 179,379,600 Huasha coins for 1,080 .6 square meters. Manager Xiao paused and continued, as our esteemed guest at Junlian Hai Jing number 1, I took the liberty of waiving the extra 300,000, and on top of that, I will give you a 9.5% discount, which brings the total down to 170,050,000. I will also waive the remaining 50,000, so the total you need to pay is only 1.7 billion, and you can secure this sky palace. Mr. Wang, considering you are making a full payment, I have specially applied for the highest benefits from the company. If you purchase this Sky Palace, in addition to the original six parking spaces, we will also gift you two additional parking spaces and waive your property fees. For five years. Not only that, but we will also provide you with private butler service and exclusive regular house cleaning, ensuring your stay is even more comfortable. He seemed worried that Wang Chen might still be dissatisfied, so he hurriedly. Added, this is already the highest discount we can offer at Zhonglian Hai Jing number one, you can secure this sky palace for just 1.7 billion. What do you think, Mr. Wang? Manager Xiao leaned slightly forward, his eyes filled with anticipation. As he looked at Wang Chen, until the final payment was successfully made, he did not dare to relax at all, after all, 170 million was no small sum. This was a huge amount of cash, not something that just any boss could easily take out. Moreover, Wang Chen was still so young. Swipe the card, full payment, Wang Chen said calmly, nodding as he took out his bank card. For Wang Chen, spending 170 million to buy this Sky Palace was definitely a surefire investment. Not to mention the 170 million cash back from the system. Just considering the house itself, in two years, the price would surely rise to over 200 million. This deal was a bargain no matter how you looked at it. Furthermore, Wang Chen was very satisfied with this Sky Palace. It was located in the most prosperous area of Magic City, only 10 kilometers away from the financial university. Mr. Wang, I will handle the relevant procedures for you right away, it may take a little time, so please sit down and have some tea. I promise to process it for you as quickly as possible, manager Xiao assured as he took the bank card. Hmm, Wang Chen nodded and replied lightly. Manager Xiao immediately took people to handle the relevant procedures. For such. A big client, time was money. He couldn’t afford to be negligent. Chen Mengiao still found it hard to believe, although Wang Chen was the son of the pioneer heavy industry group, this was still 170 million. He just bought it outright? Sales. Center. After Wang Chen signed the contract, under the expectant gaze of manager Xiao and the sales team, he entered his bank card password. Transfer has been processed. Ding-ling-ling. At that moment, Wang Chen’s phone rang. He answered. The call, and a sweet female voice came from the other end. Hello, is this Mr. Wang? This is the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. There is a transaction of 170 million on your bank card, with the purpose showing is purchasing real. Estate. We would like to verify with you if this was initiated by you. It was me, Wang Chen replied. Okay, Mr. Wang. Thank you for your response. Ding. The system detected that the host spent $170 million, double cashback of $340 million. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 17,000 system points. With the successful transfer, manager shall finally breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately after, a wave of excitement surged within him. He couldn’t help but secretly calculate how much commission he could earn from this deal. Bang. At that moment, a sales staff excitedly brought out firecrackers and champagne. With a loud bang, colorful ribbons flew wildly in the air, the sound of the firecrackers was deafening, and champagne foam sprayed everywhere. The sales staff on site cheered, their faces brimming with uncontrollable excitement and joy. Thank you, Mr. Wang, for your support of our Zhang Liang hygiene number one, manager Xiao shouted, his voice, trembling slightly, a remnant of the excitement and tension intertwined. He quickly walked towards Wang Chen, respectfully handing over the room card and purchase contract along with other relevant documents, smiling broadly as he said, Mr. Wang, here are all your materials, please keep them safe. From now on, this remarkable sky palace is exclusively yours. Wang Chen nodded slightly and reached out to take the documents. Mr. Wang, you truly have an eye for quality and courage, this house is simply tailor-made for you. Young Master Wang, you are so handsome. Many of the salesgirls on site looked at Wang Chen with admiration in their eyes, filled with infatuation. Handsome, young, and wealthy. He was like a prince. Charming stepping out of a fairy tale into reality. System, open personal panel. Wang Chen thought to himself. In an instant, a light blue screen appeared before his eyes. Host, Wang Chen age, 20 height, 188 charm, 92 physique, 120. The normal limit for a person is 100, stamina, 120, the normal limit for a person is 100, entry, double cashback, entry effect, all reasonable expenses will be refunded double dot. Extreme physique, entry effect, from this moment on, you are. The pinnacle of human physique. Solidification, entry effect. Eye of truth, entry effect. Points, 17, 713. Huoxiao coins, 4063, 894, 628. Finally broke 10,000 points, but this can only be used for one high-level draw. Wang Chen’s mind stirred as he reached out to pull the still-confused Chen Mangyao beside him, turning to head outside. Then, driving his cool McLaren P1, he slowly exited the Zhongguang Hai Jing number 1. Wang Chen pondered that he needed to buy some more items to gather enough points to reach 20,000. After all, a single draw at the bottom might yield something good if he tried again. Guajin Shopping Center. In the bright corridor of the mall. Why are we here again? We just bought the Sky Palace, shouldn’t we enjoy it properly? Chen Mengiao asked, puzzled as she linked her arm with Wang Chen’s. To buy a watch, Wang Chen replied casually. Chen Mengiao simply couldn’t understand Wang Chen’s thought process. A normal person would be thrilled after spending a fortune on the Sky Palace, yet Wang Chen brought her shopping while maintaining a nonchalant demeanor. Is this the mindset of the wealthy? Hello, sir, welcome to the Vacheron Constantine. Flagship store. As they entered the store, a uniformed saleswoman slightly bowed in welcome. The store was brightly lit, and a faint scent of incense lingered in the air, exuding elegance everywhere. The classic Maltese cross logo and the slogan. You can easily own time, but you cannot easily own Vacheron Constantine left a deep impression on Wang Chen. Hello, sir, I am Cece, the sales representative at the Vacheron -Constantine flagship store. Do you have an appointment, the saleswoman? smiled and asked. No appointment, Wang Chen replied. At that moment, a young girl entered, linking arms with a Mediterranean man. The middle-aged man spoke directly, my surname is Chen, I have an appointment at 5. Mr. Chen, we’ve been waiting for you, Cece said apologetically to Wang Chen, I’m sorry, sir, I need to attend to this guest who has an appointment. Originally, she was supposed to attend to Wang Chen, but now she left him to serve this couple. CC knew that this Mediterranean man’s spending level was not low, he was in real estate and often brought young girls to shop. Moreover, looking at Wang Chen, who was so young, even if he were a rich second generation, he would only spend a few hundred, thousand at most. She certainly chose to maintain good relations with her old customers as her commission would be higher. Wang Chen saw that others had appointments but didn’t take it to heart. He and Chen Mengiao wandered around the store. Hello, sir, I am the sales representative Zhao Ziyuan, you can call me Xiao Zhao. Do you have a watch you like? Zhao Ziyuan was a new part-time sales representative at Vacheron Constantine. As a newcomer, she could only choose from the remaining customers of the old employees to make a sale. No matter the commission, she just wanted to close a deal. Wang Chen looked up at the saleswoman in front of him, his gaze scanning her up and down. She wore the Vacheron Constantine employee uniform, but appeared quite extraordinary. Her ample bosom and the fitted uniform tightly wrapped around her long legs, outlining an alluring curve. With fair skin and delicate, three-dimensional features, her big, bright eyes revealed a hint of youthful, naivety. Wang Chen felt a surge of, a desire to tease her. Open the eye of truth. Name, Jiao Si Yuan Age, 21 Height, 175 CM Charm, 96 Physique, 90 Favorability, 25 Skills, Advanced Sanda, Intermediate Wing Chun, Advanced Accounting. A charm value of 96, no wonder she’s so beautiful. Wang Chen was secretly astonished that her combat skills were so high advanced Sanda, intermediate Wing Chun, a violent girl, this is completely unnoticeable. He then nodded and said, bring out the most expensive watching your store for me to see. Zhao Siyuan felt helpless, based on her sales experience from the past few days, Wang Chen was likely here to let his girlfriend experience the luxury. However, in the spirit of honing her sales skills, Zhao Siyuan still led Wang Chen to the counter. Sir, these watches are the best sellers this year. This one, the Vacheron Constantin Tradition L4020T-000R features an automatic mechanical movement full calendar, engraving, and a crocodile leather strap, currently priced at $255,880. This one, the Vacheron Constantin Overseas 474500W9511 is trendy and combines leisure, sports, high luxury, and business, currently priced at $88,888. This one, the. Vacheron Constantine KDLL85050-000D is priced at $128,000. Do you see any watches you like? Zhao Siyuan said with a professional smile. It wasn’t that Zhao Siyuan didn’t want to introduce more expensive watches, she just felt that. Wang Chen was so young that even if he wanted to buy one, he certainly couldn’t afford anything too pricey. She didn’t want such a handsome young man to lose face because he couldn’t afford it. Wang Chen frowned, these watches were too cheap. How many watches would he have to buy to accumulate 20,000 points? Seeing this, Zhao Siyuan softly asked, Sir, are these watches not suitable? These are not suitable for me, don’t show me these low-end products. Bring out the most expensive watch in your store, Wang Chen nodded and said. Cici, who had already completed her transaction, stood aside, watching Wang Chen insist on seeing the most expensive Vacheron Constantine watch and couldn’t help but smile. The most expensive watch in their store was priced over 10 million. That was something a novice like Wang Chen could afford? She was curious to see how Wang Chen would handle this. Zhao Siyuan, feeling helpless, could only take Wang Chen to a separate counter. Sir, this watch is the most expensive in the store, the Vacheron Constantin Métis Dar 6620C -000 or B656, currently priced at 18,888 ,888. The case is made of 18K5 in pink gold, the dial is blue, and the strap is made from Mississippi. Alligator leather. This one is the Vacheron Constantine Multi 30682-S21G9477, a classic Turbillon style, using the CalPoint 1795 or movement, with a diameter of 27.37mm and a thickness of 6.1mm, the case is made of 18k white gold set with diamonds, currently priced at $9,998,000. This one is the Vacheron Constantine Patrimony 30020-000P7596, with a diameter of 37mm, the case is made of 950 platinum, currently priced at 6 ,888,000. Zhao Siyuan introduced three expensive watches in one. Brethen then smiled at Wang Chen, saying, so expensive. Chen Mengiao covered her mouth with her fair hand, unable to suppress her exclamation. A watch could sell for over 10 million, she was completely stunned. Was it really that exaggerated? This watch was even more expensive than Wang Chen’s McLaren P1. She simply couldn’t understand how this watch could be worth 18 ,888,888. Even if it was gold and diamonds, it wasn’t worth that much. Poor people play with cars, rich people play with watches. The added value of watches is too high, any price could be justified. Can I try on this 18.88 million one? Wang Chen pointed to the most expensive watch. Of course. For safety reasons, I need to help you put it on myself. Zhao Siyuan hesitated slightly and said. Then, cautiously, she took the watch out from behind the counter, not daring to be careless, if anything went wrong, she couldn’t afford it. Wang Chen understood, as he was wearing a Patek Philippe on his left wrist, so he could only extend his right hand, signaling Zhao Siyuan to assist him. Zhao Siyuan gently placed the watch on Wang Chen’s wrist, confirming it was correct before releasing her hands. Wang Chen raised his right hand, examining it closely, it really was beautiful. It perfectly matched his aesthetic. Wang Chen nodded in satisfaction, took out his bank card, and said to Zhao Siyuan, calculate how much it is. I’ll take all three watches, and I’ll pay by card. Ah. Zhao Siyuan was stunned, not even accepting the bank card Wang Chen handed her. He was buying them just like that? The three most expensive watches in the store? She was a bit worried that Wang Chen hadn’t heard the prices clearly and confirmed again, sir, the current price of this watch is 18,888,000. Are you sure you want? All three? You heard me right, I want all three watches, Wang Chen replied calmly. Boom. Zhao Siyuan felt her head explode, she could hardly believe it. Wang. Chen really wanted to buy these three watches. A newcomer like her could achieve sales of tens of millions, and her commission would probably be several hundred. Thousand. CC also looked at Wang Chen with a face full of doubt. Not just CC, but all the salespeople in the store, including the customers, couldn’t believe. Wang Chen could pull out over 30 million. The total is 35,774 ,888, and after the discount, it’s 35,500,000. I’ll process it for you right away. Zhao Siyuan. Her hand slightly trembling, took the bank card, pulled out the POS machine, and swiped it. Then she half-kneeled in front of Wang Chen and said, please enter. Your password. Wang Chen raised his hand and entered the password. Payment successful. Zhao Siyuan breathed a sigh of relief. Hissed the onlookers not far away. In the store gasped, contributing to global warming. They never expected that Wang Chen was not there to show off. He was genuinely wealthy. Especially Cici, Huat. That moment felt an overwhelming sense of regret. But was it too late to regret now? Originally, Wang Chen was the first customer she attended to, and logically, the commission should belong to her. If only she hadn’t looked down on Wang Chen convinced that his spending power couldn’t match that of the Mediterranean man. She wouldn’t have given up on serving him. Now, it was as if a cooked duck had flown away. She felt as if her soul had been lost, standing there in a daze. Ding! The system detected that the host spent $35,500,000 and the double cashback is $7,100,000. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 3,350 system points. Thank you very much for your strong support of Vacheron Constantine. Let me add you on Feixin, you can contact me anytime if you have any questions. Jousie Yuen said as she packed the three watches into a beautiful shopping bag and handed it to Wang Chen with both hands. At that moment, her head was still spinning and her reactions were sluggish. This was a performance of 35 million. Just the commission alone would be several hundred thousand. For a junior in college. Like her, this was an astronomical figure. And it was money she earned herself. Just thinking about it felt unbelievable. Wang Chen found it amusing and couldn’t help. But chuckle, Zhao Siyuan had come right to him. He took out his phone and added her on Feixin. Wang Chen smiled and said, you provided good service, let’s keep in touch if there’s a chance in the future. The two walked out of the international finance center. Looking up, they saw it was getting late, so they found a. well-reviewed restaurant nearby to dine. The meal cost 2,688 yuan. After dinner, Wang Chen took Chen Mengiao back to the Tianmu Palace. In the spacious living room, the intertwining blue and light purple ambient lights wove a dreamlike web of light and shadow, the changing lights dancing like fairies. Chen Mengiao stood in. Front of the panoramic wall, deeply captivated by the dazzling night view of the magical city outside, lost in thought. Do you like it here? Wang Chen said from Behind, handing her a glass of red wine, Chen Mangiao took the wine glass, her eyes revealing a hint of daze, and softly said, I like it, it’s so beautiful, everything. Feels like a dream, so unreal. Wang Chen naturally wrapped his arms around Chen Mangiao’s waist, his nose close to her hair, gently inhaling the enchanting fragrance, as long as you’re willing, you can stay here forever. Upon hearing this, Chen Mangiao felt a bit ridiculous inside, could Wang Chen truly belong to her? Clearly not. As a third party intruding in her friend’s relationship, what right did she have to stay here long term? She knew very well that a man like Wang Chen could never have just one woman, nor could he be monopolized by one. Yet, deep down, she couldn’t help but feel a wave of disappointment. After all, which girl? Wouldn’t want to have an outstanding man like Wang Chen all to herself? However, just being able to be Wang Chen’s woman was already enough for her satisfaction. I’m going to take a shower first, wait for me here, I want to give you a surprise. Chen Mengiao made an effort to sort out her emotions, lowered her head, and took a big gulp of the red wine, as if she had made a certain decision. What surprise! Wang Chen couldn’t help but feel curious. Chen Mengiao, a bit shy, playfully, pouted at Wang Chen and said, you’ll find out soon, it will definitely satisfy you. Wang Chen looked at the charming Chen Mengiao in his arms feeling an overwhelming excitement inside. He was eager to see what this surprise was that could please him. Go on, don’t keep me waiting too long. Muo wait for me. Chen Mengiao left a sweet kiss and turned to walk towards the bathroom. Wang Chen gazed at the colorful night view of Huangpu outside the window, softly murmuring, interesting. I’m actually looking forward to it. System, open personal panel. Ding! The personal panel has been opened for the host. Host, Wang Chen age, 20 height, 188 charm. 92 physique, 120, normal human limit is 100, stamina, 120, normal human limit is 100, entry, double cashback, entry effect, all reasonable expenses will be refunded. Double. Limitless physique, entry effect, from this moment on, you are the pinnacle of human physique. Solidification, entry effect, your physical state will always be at its peak. Eye of Truth, entry effect, a mysterious power that opens the door to truth, all buried disguises will be exposed under its gaze. Points, 21, 264. Hua Xia. Coins, 4099, 397, 316. Wang Chen’s side finally reached 20,000 points, let’s see what’s different with the advanced roulette. System, open advanced roulette. As Wang Chen’s voice fell, a dazzling golden light erupted on the system screen flickering continuously and a mysterious aura seemed to pervade the air, appearing solemn and vast. As the light dimmed, an ancient and mysterious roulette appeared before him, with intricate patterns spinning around it. Wang Chen was blinded by the intense light. Unable to help but complain, damn, this special effect is too exaggerated. The entries in this golden roulette can’t be overpowered, right? System, draw once from the advanced roulette. As Wang Chen finished speaking, the golden roulette began to spin rapidly like a runaway horse. The golden light flickered unpredictably, and he stared at it, growing more and more excited. As the roulette slowly came to a stop, only one pattern remained shining with golden light. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining. 3 billion Hua Xia coins. Wang Chen’s face instantly darkened. Although 30 billion was an unimaginable sum for most people, for Wang Chen, 30 billion was just. A matter of buying a few more houses. System, don’t make me slap you. Ding. What you draw is all due to the host’s luck, the system cannot interfere or decide. The system’s. Cold mechanical voice echoed in his mind. Wang Chen, with a resentful expression, said to the system, draw again. Be careful this time. The golden roulette in front. Of him began to spin slowly once more, radiating light. Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the entry, Machine Soul Delight. Machine Soul Delight, when you operate any machinery, you will achieve a state of unity between man and machine, you are in the machine, and the machine is in you. Young man, do not underestimate the bond between you. What the hell? Wang Chen’s face darkened again. What kind of nonsense is this? Goddammit, you are in the machine, and the machine is in you. Is this a serious? Entry? Whose entry is described like this? However, this entry seems not too bad. At least, he wouldn’t have to drive his beloved McLaren P1 at a snail’s pace anymore. Huawei Industrial and Commercial Bank reminds you, your account has been credited with 3 billion, with a balance of 7,099 ,397,316 Huasha coins. An hour later, Wang Chen had almost finished a bottle of red wine, and Chen Mangiao was still in the bathroom. This made Wang Chen frown. What was Chen Mengiao doing in there? Suddenly, all the lights in the room turned on. Chen Mengiao appeared, dressed in a Ronghong flight attendant uniform, with a red scarf tied around her neck and a special flight attendant hat that accentuated her delicate facial features. She wore black stockings with the Balenciaga logo and stepped out of the room in red-soled high heels. Chen Mengiao’s face was flushed, her eyes charming. His Wang Chen immediately gasped, unable to remain calm. She slowly approached Wang Chen, smiling as she embraced him and softly. Said, hubby, are you satisfied with this surprise? Very satisfied. Wang Chen smiled, his hands unconsciously wandering up and down. Chen Mengiao in her flight attendant. Uniform looked incredibly alluring, even more so than usual. What a thoughtful little sister, knowing what Wang Chen likes. Chen Mengiao shifted slightly, but not to escape. Wang Chen’s wandering hands, rather, it was to make it easier for him. Her long legs in Balenciaga stockings brushed against Wang Chen’s. Chen Mengiao leaned close to Wang. Chen Zirin said, Mr. Wang, welcome aboard the flight from Jinchang to Modu. I am the chief flight attendant, Chen Mengiao, and it is my honor to serve you. During this flight, I will do my utmost to provide you with a safe and comfortable journey. Please feel free to make any requests. Ah. Chen Mengiao let out a soft gasp. Wang Chen suddenly hugged Chen Mengiao tightly and said, Chief attendant, the plane is about to take off, why aren’t you sitting down and fastening your seatbelt? It’s fine, Mr. Wang. Our mission is to serve our passengers well. Come, relax, and let me take you to your seat to lie down. Chen Mengiao pulled Wang Chen’s collar and walked towards the room, I just wonder how Mr. Wang’s physical condition is, can you handle a long flight? After all, the flight time is two and a half hours. Wang Chen smiled and said, I’m in great shape, I often take international flights that last over ten hours. I just wonder if the chief attendant can handle it. This passenger has quite a tough mouth. I hope you don’t get airsick as soon as the plane takes off. Chen Mengiao smiled sweetly, becoming even more enchanting. The two walked into the room, and Chen Mengiao slowly pushed Wang Chen onto the bed. Wang Chen stopped talking nonsense and pulled Chen Mengiao down onto him, wrapping his arms tightly around her slender waist, his eyes filled with heat. Chen Mengiao did not resist, gently resting on Wang Chen’s chest, her fingers tracing circles on his chest, her warm breath brushing against his neck. Now, please relax and enjoy this flight. Chief attendant, you have to take good care of me on this long flight, I’m afraid I’ll get bored. Wang Chen teased Dada Han slowly, moved up along Chen Mengiao’s black silk thigh. This part is omitted. The sun was high in the sky. Good morning, hubby. Wang Chen felt a tickle in his nose. Suddenly opened his eyes and woke up. After a moment of silence, he said to Chen Mengiao with a complex expression, you still. He thought that a woman as proactive as Chen Mengiao, who played so openly, should have long lost her virginity. Unexpectedly, she was still a pure white lotus. Spotless and flawless. He he, didn’t expect that, did you? Chen Mengiao leaned in Wang Chen’s arms, pouting and giggling, do you think I’m so casual, that a woman like me should have lost it long ago? It is indeed a bit unexpected. Aren’t you regretting it? Wang Chen fell silent for a moment before speaking. He never imagined he would be the first to take Chen Mengiao’s blood. This woman was too smart. A glimmer of golden light flashed before Wang Chen’s eyes, and suddenly, Chen Mengiao’s information appeared before him. Name, Chen Mengiao, age, 24. Height, 171 centimeters, charm, 93, physique, 82, favorability, 95, skills, advanced etiquette, advanced fashion, advanced makeup. Wang Chen nodded in satisfaction, a favorability. Of 95 points was worth all his hard work from the night before. It seemed he had completely conquered this little green tea. There’s nothing to regret, girls always have. To become women. Chen Mengya smiled and said, I don’t regret it at all, at least I’ve achieved my goal. Wang Chen curiously asked, what goal? Since I entered university. and saw the life of real wealthy people, I’ve thought that I must find a rich person in my life and live the life of a wealthy lady. Of course, it’s best if he’s handsome. And young, after all, I can’t stand those middle-aged greasy men. Wang Chin looked at Chen Mengiao without speaking, but she happily giggled, actually, just meeting you. Makes me feel very happy. Hubby, you’re really handsome, I like you so much. Before Wang Chin could respond, Chen Mengiao suddenly looked downcast and said, Do you look down on women like me, thinking I’m too materialistic and only care about money? But I’m already 24 this year, and I’ve been working for two years. Being a flight attendant. Looks glamorous on the outside, a job everyone envies, but the hardships are known only to oneself. The best years of life are spent on planes, greeting and sending off. All kinds of passengers, always having to maintain a smile, even when faced with unreasonable customers, one cannot show any temper. During holidays, while others reunite. With their families and enjoy festive meals, I mostly spend my time on planes with strangers. Most flight attendants live this way year after year, eventually marrying. An ordinary person, starting a family, and living a mundane life. I’ve had enough of this predictable life, I don’t want to live like that. Tears vaguely appeared in Chen. Mengiao’s eyes, her voice choked as she said, yet flight attendants mostly meet wealthy people, and seeing so much changes one’s mindset. Most flight attendants think about finding a rich person to live a wealthy life. I clearly know that. My body is my most important bargaining chip, so I protect it well. Chen Mengiao’s eyes reddened. Holding back tears, she pretended to be relaxed and said, hubby, luckily I met you in the end, otherwise, I don’t know when I would have collapsed. I just feel a bit. Sorry for Qingya. After saying that, Chen Mengiao showed a pitiful expression, looking at Wang Chen and saying, hubby, you won’t abandon me, right? Wang Chen feigned. Silence as he looked at Chen Mengiao, only breaking into a smile when she was on the verge of tears, saying, of course not. Wanting to live a prosperous life is perfectly normal, everyone yearns for a beautiful life, and what I have in abundance is money and power. As the heir of the Pioneer Group and Huayau Group, I believe there are very few people in Hua Gua who can compare with me. Whatever you want, I will give you. If you want to live a life above others, I will provide you that life. As long as you behave and listen to me in the future, all of this will be yours. Hearing this, Chen Mangyao was overjoyed and sweetly said, love you, hubby, asterisk, carrot, carrot, asterisk, now that you’ve rested well, let’s take off again. Last night’s flight was too short and the flight attendant needs to cooperate well. Chen Mangyao’s smile instantly vanished. She quickly. Pleaded, I can’t take it anymore, please spare me, hubby. We’ve been at it all night, can we take a break today, please? That’s not up to you, who told you to doubt me? The next day, at 6 .30 in the morning, the sky was just beginning to lighten, with faint morning light filtering through the thin clouds, casting a dreamy veil over the earth. The magic city had not fully awakened from its slumber, and a light mist hung over the streets, creating a somewhat hazy atmosphere. Wang Chen, looking, drowsy, drove the McLaren P1, dropping Chen Mengiao off at Pudong International Airport in the magic city. Her vacation had come to an end, and she had to return to work. At this moment, Chen Mengiao had put on her flight attendant uniform again, looking dignified and aloof, completely different from the day before. As soon as she got out of the car, she felt her legs weaken and nearly fell. With a resentful look, she said to Wang Chen, hubby, I’m off to work now. In fact, Wang Chen had mentioned last night that he could buy her a house in the Magic City so she wouldn’t have to work anymore. But in the end, she still decided to go to work. After all, being a flight attendant came with. a special status and professional perks. She feared that without this aura, over time, Wang Chen might grow tired of her, his heart swayed by another woman, and no longer need her. Then it would be too late for her to regret it. Moreover, wasn’t Xinxingya still working at the airline? She needed to find a way to make Xinxingya accept her presence. Years of close friendship combined with her constant brainwashing, made her confident that Xinxingya wouldn’t be unmoved. If they both worked together, she believed they could secure their place in Wang Chen’s heart. Surely no man could resist such temptation, not even Wang Chen. Alright, I’ll send you a message when I arrive. Wang Chen took out his phone and said, I transferred 200,000 to you, spend it as you like, and if it runs out, just ask me for more. Does this mean, I’m officially being capped? Chen Mengiao looked at her balance on the phone. What do you think? It’s too late to regret now. I’m not. Chen Mengiao shook her head and said, I’m just a bit emotional, afraid you might not want me anymore. As long as you don’t want to leave, I won’t abandon you. Wang Chen smiled lightly. I’ll trust you. This once. Chen Mengel looked at Wang Chen standing in front of her, tiptoed, and gently placed a sweet kiss on his lips. I’m off, remember to think of me, love you. With that, she turned gracefully and walked towards the terminal. This woman, Wang Chen smiled faintly. Old buddy, let me see your limits. Wang Chen patted his beloved car, then returned to the vehicle and pressed the accelerator. The McLaren P1 instantly sped out of Pudong Airport at an incredible speed. Boom. Boom. Oh yeah. Awesome. This is what it feels like to drive a supercar. A yellow lightning bolt raced along the expressway in the Magic City, continuously accelerating, weaving left and right, to overtake one car after another. Damn, driving this fast is suicidal, what’s so great about a sports car? Asterisk you star dot. A series of curses came from behind, clearly the people of Magic City were not going to let Wang Chin off just because he was driving a McLaren P1, with the boost from the machine soul delight attribute, Wang Chin felt. As if he had become one with the McLaren P1 beneath him, as if he had been a top racer for a lifetime, maneuvering it with ease. The unfamiliarity of being a novice was gone. Ding-dling. At that moment, Wang Chen’s phone rang. He slowed down and answered it. Hello, Mr. Wang. Who is this? A middle-aged man’s voice came from the other end. Of the line. The voice of bank president Liu Yanching came through, sounding particularly sincere. Hello, Mr. Wang, I am the president of the industrial and commercial bank. Branchin Jinchang, my name is Liu Yanching. You recently transferred a sum of 30 billion. Thank you very much for your support of our bank and for your trust in us. To express our gratitude and to better understand your needs, I wonder if you have some free time recently for us to arrange a meeting. What do you think, Mr. Wang? Wang Chen was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting such an invitation. However, it made sense. Wang Chen’s deposits in the bank were nearing 100 billion. This was over 70 billion in cash flow, and no matter which bank it was, having such a large client meant they had to maintain a good relationship. After all, that over 70 billion could generate enormous interest every day, filling the bank’s coffers. Naturally, the bank was also afraid he might transfer his money elsewhere. Liu Yanching’s call was clearly to build rapport, and the meaning was obvious. After thinking for a moment, Wang Chin said, President Liu, you are too polite. However, I am currently in Magic City and cannot return to Jincheng for the time being, what do you think? Mr. Wang, isn’t this a coincidence? I just happened to be on a business trip to Magic City, and I just got off the plane. Wangchen smiled helplessly and said, alright then, you pick a place, I’m free today. That’s wonderful. Liu Yanching’s tone carried a hint of. Joy, how about today at noon? I know a restaurant with great dishes, I believe you will like it. Okay, see you at noon then. I won’t disturb you any longer, I’ll send. The restaurant address to your phone shortly. Alright. Wangchen hung up the phone and focused on enjoying the thrill brought by the supercar. He was quite looking forward. To President Liu’s invitation. He had heard of the bank’s private VIP services in his previous life where various needs for privileges or connections could be handled. As long as one had money, perhaps the Ferrari LaFerrari he had always wanted could be arranged by the bank. Before long, the restaurant address was sent to Wang Chen’s phone, Jingxi Hui, bond branch, in Huangpu district. He sped along. Two hours later, having had enough fun, Wang Chen returned to Tianmu Palace to continue his nap. As noon approached, the McLaren P1 drove into the entrance of the Magic City Financial Center. Wang Chen parked the car perfectly and got out, walking towards the entrance. Jingxi Hui is located on the fourth floor of the financial center. It has received the honor of Michelin One Star for seven consecutive years, from the lobby to the private rooms. It boasts iconic views of the bond, with the dazzling scenery along the Pujang River in full view, and some spots even offer a first-line river view. At the entrance of the financial center stood a young woman in a bank uniform. She glanced at her watch from time to time, looking around. As Wang Chen approached, her eyes lit up, and she. Quickly walked forward, happily saying, hello, you must be Mr. Wang. That’s me. Wang Chen nodded and replied. Mr. Wang, I am the private steward of the industrial and commercial bank, Long Lily. You can just call me Lily. Long Lily introduced herself with a smile. President Liu specifically instructed me to wait for you downstairs. Hearing this, Wang Chen looked the woman up and down. She appeared to be about 168 centimeters tall, with a small face as delicate as snow, smooth and flawless.A pair of peach blossom. eyes shimmered with a captivating light and as her gaze shifted it seemed to hold endless charm the tailored bank uniform tightly wrapped around her exquisite figure below she wore black stockings that clung to her long straight legs like a second skin glimmering with an alluring sheen each step taken in her high heels exuded a sensual grace and every gesture radiated an irresistible allure wang chen thought to himself what a fairy she is he raised his head a glint of gold flashing in his eyes And suddenly, Dragon Lily’s personal information appeared before him, name, Dragon Lily age, 26 height, 168 cm charm, 93 fizzy, 81 favorability, 65 skills, senior. Accountant, senior butler, senior etiquette, President Liu is waiting for you in the private room, I’ll take you up now, Dragon Lily suggested with a smile. Alright. Wang Chen replied following Dragon Lily as they took the elevator to the fourth floor of the financial center. As the elevator doors opened, two elegantly poised ladies in. Exquisite kippeos gracefully bowed to them, welcome to Jinxi club, please come in. Passing through the door, they were bathed in the glow of Italian handcrafted crystal. Chandeliers, exuding an air of refinement and luxury. A blend of Chinese elegance and western grace, a perfect fusion of east and west. A wine cellar over 6 meters tall. An 8 meter tea table crafted from blue jade crystal. Under Dragon Lily’s guidance, they arrived at the private room. A middle-aged man in a black suit was seated at the dining table. President, Mr. Wang has arrived, Dragon Lily reported, standing before President Liu. Liu Yanching stood up, extending his hands warmly with a smile, saying, Mr. Wang, hello, I am Liu Yanching, the president of the industrial and commercial bank branch in Jinchang. Hello, President Liu, Wang Chen responded, shaking hands while expressing his apologies, I was delayed on the way, sorry to have kept you waiting. Although Wang Chen’s words conveyed regret, his expression remained calm. After all, President Liu was not merely inviting him to deposit money at the bank. His family background also gave him the capital to remain composed, as the assets of the pioneer heavy. Industry group reached trillions. Not at all, I just arrived not long ago, the traffic in the magic city is like this, delays are common. Please, have a seat, president. Liu said with a beaming smile, then instructed Dragon Lily, you can sit next to Mr. Wang. Okay, Dragon Lily replied, promptly taking a seat beside Wang Chen. Just. As they settled in, a waitress and a cheapo began to bring in dishes one after another. Three-head butterfly glue. Chaojo puning tofu. Flower glue oil crab braised. Sunflower chicken. Signature old goose head. As the dishes were placed on the table, they glimmered enticingly under the lights filling the air with delightful aromas. President Liu introduced, I wasn’t sure of your taste, Mr. Wang, so I just ordered some of the restaurant’s signature dishes. You are very considerate, President Liu. Wang Chen nodded. In his past life, Wang Chen had never enjoyed such service. A bank president was a figure unattainable for ordinary people and now he was here to curry. Favor with Wang Chen. Truly, fate plays tricks. The waves of the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Mr. Wang is so young, yet his deposits reach billions. I wonder what. Your family does? President Liu asked tentatively. Hehe, I think President Liu has already grasped my information since you came to see me today, Wang Chen replied lightly. Ah, Mr. Wang, you may not know, but I haven’t found any information about you, I’m ashamed. Oh, President Liu’s gaze flickered, continuing, may I ask which family in? Rhone province you are from? A small micro-enterprise, my surname is Wang. Wang Chen responded, saying no more. Ahem. Dragon Lily, sitting nearby, coughed, drawing. The attention of both men, who immediately apologized, sorry, Mr. Wang. Over 70 billion in deposits and still a micro-enterprise, Long Lily rolled her eyes inwardly. When it came to small enterprises in Rhone province, if it wasn’t the Wang family, there was no other. President Liu immediately realized this. Indeed, apart from large. Enterprises like the Pioneer Heavy Industry Group in Rome Province, which company could afford to give Wang Chen hundreds of billions in pocket money at his age? For such top-tier companies, if they wanted to conceal something, it was normal that he couldn’t find any information on Wang Chen. I apologize, young master Wang, President Liu quickly, said. After all, it was somewhat inappropriate for him to privately investigate Wang Chen’s information. Most wealthy individuals place great importance on personal privacy. And for those who are particularly sensitive about it, whether this meal could be enjoyed was still debatable. It’s fine, Wang Chen waved his hand, not minding it. As the drinks flowed and the dishes were served, the atmosphere in the private room gradually warmed up. President Liu raised his glass again to toast Wang Chen, smiling, young. Master Wang, I believe you have already guessed the purpose of this invitation. With a beaming smile, President Liu continued, first, to thank you for your support and trust. In our industrial and commercial bank, and second, to get to know the young talents of Rong province. Of course, the most important thing is to invite you to join our bank’s private VIP program. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen nodded at President Liu, signaling him to continue. President Liu introduced, our bank’s VIP clients are categorized. From quasi-star clients, three-star clients, all the way to seven-star clients. With your deposits, young master Wang, you have far exceeded the standard for seven -star clients and belong to the private banking VIP category. President Liu said proudly, as a private banking client, each one of you is indispensable to our bank. We tailor. Asset allocation plans specifically for you based on your risk preferences, investment goals, and financial situation, helping clients preserve and increase their assets. As long as you join our bank’s private banking VIP program, we will do our utmost to protect your rights. Wang Chen replied lightly, is that all? That might not be enough. These rights might seem sufficient to an ordinary person. However, for Wang Chen, they were like a chicken rib. Of course, these do not match young master Wan’s status. President Liu maintained his composure, looking intently at Wang Chen as he said, you naturally do not lack these ordinary services, nor do you value them. In response, our bank has customized a one-on-one private banking steward service for you, providing personalized and professional financial services. We also offer some private services, such as private club memberships, high-end travel customization, art appreciation and investment, private jet rentals, high-end medical services, etc., to meet your various needs in enhancing your quality of life and social interactions. Whenever you need, our bank will do its utmost to integrate resources for you and assist you in. Global asset allocation, establishing your prestigious identity. Now that sounds interesting. Wang Chen smiled faintly and took a sip from his glass. Beside him, Long Lily, with keen insight, immediately stood up to pour him more wine. After all, he was going to be her boss for the next few years, or even decades, she had to pay attention. Wang Chen pondered for a moment. Undoubtedly, President Liu’s words had touched him. Resources and connections are the most scarce things in this society. Even with his background, Wang Chen would never think he had too many connections and resources. He didn’t want to trouble his family with everything. Having lived another life with the top tier background in system at his disposal, he still needed to achieve something. That way, it wouldn’t be in vain to be reborn. President Liu, I might not return to Rome. Province much in the coming years, so this private service. President Liu’s eyes lit up and he smiled, rest assured, the reason I brought Lily here this time is to alleviate your concerns. She will stay by your side as a private steward of our bank, solving any problems you may have. Whenever you have a need, just contact Lily directly, and she will integrate all the resources of our bank for you. Young Master Wang, if it’s convenient, let’s add each other on Feixin. If you have any questions, I will provide you with 24-hour service. Upon hearing this, Long Lily immediately stood up and respectfully handed over her Feixin QR code. Wang Chen took out his phone, opened Feixin, and scanned the QR code. Unsurprisingly, he would be dealing with Long Lily for a long time to come. Young Master Wang, having a personal butler is a privilege. Reserved for the best clients at the industrial and commercial bank. If you have any requests, just let Lily know, and she will fulfill them. President Liu explained. Again. He looked directly at Wang Chen, their eyes met, and then they exchanged a smile, revealing a grin that only men would understand. Wang Chen slightly raised his chin. A hint of amusement in his eyes, President Liu, I truly felt the weight of this arrangement today, it’s quite impressive. As he spoke, his phone chimed, indicating that. He had successfully added Long Lily as a friend. Long Lily bowed slightly, her face adorned with a perfectly professional smile. Raising her glass, she softly said, Young. Master Wang, I toast to you. If you need anything in the future, just let me know. Sounds good. However, I have high standards, things must be done to my liking, as long as you do well, the benefits will naturally come your way. Wang Chin also picked up his glass, gently clinking it with Long Lily’s, producing a crisp sound, and drank it all. In one go. Long Lily nodded slightly, a glimmer of joy in her eyes, Young Master Wang, rest assured, Lily will do her utmost, your satisfaction is my greatest pursuit. Seeing this, President Liu quickly raised his glass and said, Come, come, Young Master Wang, let’s toast to a pleasant cooperation. From now on, the industrial and commercial bank will accompany you on your journey to wealth. The meal lasted for over an hour. Glasses clinked, and everyone enjoyed themselves. Wang Chen glanced at his vacheron. Constant in watch, the hour hand quietly pointed to one o’clock and he lazily stood up. President Liu, I truly enjoyed this meal today, thank you. Wang Chen’s gaze swept over President Liu and then landed on Long Lily, who was quietly waiting nearby, and he said lightly, Miss Long, I will trouble you from now on. President Liu quickly stood up, smiling, Young Master Wang, you flatter me, you’re being too polite. Long Lily also stepped forward quickly, her hands clasped in front of her, slightly bowing as. She said, Young Master Wang, I’ll see you out. The group arrived at the entrance of the financial center downstairs, where a pre-arranged chauffeur had been waiting for a long time. President Liu shook Wang Chen’s hand, his face beaming with a smile, young master Wang, this time in the magic city was rushed and I hope it met your expectations. When you have time to return to Jincheng, I will definitely treat you well and ensure your satisfaction. President Liu is too kind. We’re both from the same hometown. No need for such formalities. When we return to Jincheng, I will surely trouble you. Wang Chen smiled back. Life has three joys. Meeting an old friend in a foreign land counts as one joy. Being able to dine with a fellow townsman from thousands of miles away in the Magic City made Wang Chen quite happy. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Wang Chen got into the passenger seat of the McLaren P1. The car slowly started and drove into the bustling streets of the Magic City. President Liu and Long Lily stood at the entrance of the financial center, watching the McLaren P1 disappear into the distance. President Liu let out a long breath. He turned to Long Lily and said, Lily, Young Master Wang is a key client for our bank, you must take good care of him, as this relates to a significant portion of our performance. Don’t worry, President, I know. What to do? Long Lily said firmly, watching the McLaren P1 grow increasingly distant. She understood that following a major client like Wang Chen was both an opportunity, and a challenge. As long as she handled it well, her position in the bank and her entire career would experience a qualitative leap. It was even possible to soar to new heights, and become a phoenix. Wang Chen was young and handsome, with a strong family background, in her eyes, there were hardly a few in the world who could compare. It was only natural for her to feel a stir in her heart, the two stood in place, watching the car gradually fade away until it disappeared from sight. After a moment, both turned and returned to the hotel, each lost in their own thoughts. Three days later, at 10 o’clock in the morning, in Jing’an District, Shanghai, at the Ferrari sales center, Wang Chen drove Long Lily and parked the car at the entrance of the Ferrari sales center. Ever since the banquet ended, Wang Chen had asked Long Lily to help him contact and purchase a Ferrari LaFerrari that was available. Unexpectedly, news came today. The connections from ICBC truly astonished Wang Chen. It was indeed the number one bank in the universe. The value of ICBC is not just talk. At this moment, at the entrance of the Ferrari sales center, two neat rows of sales staff were already standing. At the forefront was a woman in her 30s, dressed in a well-tailored gray suit. The fitted style showcased her curvaceous figure perfectly. A slender belt of the same color at her. Waist not only outlined her delicate waist but also highlighted a sense of sharpness and competence. Her slightly curled short hair lay neatly behind her ears, and a pair of small pearl earrings at her ears exuded an elegant aura in a low-key manner. As Wang Chen and Long Lily got out of the car, she stepped forward, her silver high heels, clicking against the ground, producing a crisp and powerful sound. She exuded a strong mature woman vibe. Hello, Mr. Wang, Miss Long, I am Le Yen, the owner of the Ferrari. Sales Center. Welcome to our establishment. Liu Yen greeted them with a smile, extending her right hand warmly to Wang Chen. Seeing this, Wang Chen extended his hand and said, Hello, Manager Yen. Hello, Manager Yen, Long Lily also smiled. A flash of gold appeared in Wang Chen’s eyes and the system panel immediately materialized before him. Name, Liu Yen age, 38 height, 170 cm charm, 85 physique, 83 favorability, 72 skills, advanced social skills, advanced management, intermediate taekwondo, coming. Back to his senses, Wang Chen said, I believe you know the purpose of our visit today, but I wonder, with the connections from ICBC, you can rest assured about the La Ferrari. Let’s go to the meeting room and talk. Mr Wang, you are really young. You don’t have to call me Manager Yan, I’m not much older than you. You can call me Sister Lu, or Sister Yan. Lu Yan was secretly surprised by Wang Chen’s youth. After so many years of working in Shanghai, she had seen her fair share of private VIP clients from ICBC, but someone as young as Wang Chen was a first for her. This was enough to prove how powerful the forces behind Wang Chen were. At least, they were not something she could afford to offend. Since ICBC contacted her the day before yesterday, Liu Yan had not dared to be careless and urgently coordinated a LaFerrari from the headquarters. The seemingly unbreakable rules in the eyes of ordinary people were mere illusions to the wealthy. My rules are my rules. Even if Wang Chen wanted an available car, it could be done within three days. Normally, the process from placing an order to delivery would take at least half a year. Let’s go, let’s go, Wang Chen said with a beaming face. Then I’ll call you Sister Yin, and you don’t have to call me Mr. Wang, just call me Wang Chen. Inside the luxurious meeting room of the Ferrari sales center, the entire space was open and bright. A giant chandelier made of Swarovski crystals hung down, illuminating every inch of the room with a dazzling glow. Beneath their feet, a thick, hand-woven wool carpet felt soft to the touch, with the exquisite Ferrari prancing horse logo intricately woven into it, eye-catching and flamboyant, showcasing the brand’s prestige. In the corner, there was also a small indoor fountain, the gentle sound of flowing water adding a touch of liveliness and elegance to the room. Our meeting room is quite well decorated, isn’t it? Le Yen confidently said, seeing that the two were captivated by the luxurious decor, this was designed by a famous French designer I hired. Using only the best materials and furniture. Don’t be fooled by the size of this room, it cost me over 20 million. It really is impressive. Wang Chen smiled and said. Just as a few of them sat down, Le Yen was about to speak when Wang Chen’s phone rang. He took out his phone and saw it was a call from Wang Sitsong, whom Wang Chen was a bit surprised. Since their last meeting at the bar, they had exchanged contact information but it had been almost a month without any communication. He had originally thought about using Wang Sitsong to integrate into the wealthy second generation circle of Magic City and to meet some friends. However, Wang Sitsong had not reached out to him since then. Wang Chen had almost forgotten about it. After all, it was normal for a top-tier rich second generation like Wang Sitsong to be busy and overlook such things. He didn’t expect to hear from him today, which caught him off guard. Is there something going on? Lu Yan asked curiously. It’s nothing, I’ll take this call first. Wang Chen shook his head and then answered the phone. Wang Chen, where have you been making money lately? Wang Sitsong’s voice came through the phone, teasingly saying. You haven’t contacted me, and you didn’t even think to reach out, really hurts my feelings, buddy. You’re such a busy person, your news is everywhere online, how could I? Dare to contact you? Wang Chan replied lightly. Recently, the owner of a certain company had been set up and accused of assaulting a woman, which sparked widespread attention and discussion among netizens. Wang Sichong had been quite active online, making comments that attracted a lot of netizens to watch the drama unfold. Don’t even mention. It’s because of this, I got warned by my old man, Wang Sichong said irritably. If you ask me, it’s just that the money wasn’t enough. If he had given a few million, could that woman have accused him of rape? A few million isn’t enough, but surely tens of millions would do, right? Such a big boss being so stingy. Now look, he even ended up. In jail, losing face all the way to the Pacific Ocean, Wang Sitsong laughed heartily, reveling in the misfortune. He suddenly asked, how’s your kidney doing lately? It’s. Good, seven times a night is no problem, Wang Chen replied casually. Damn, relying on your youth to do whatever you want, huh? Wang Sitsong said speechlessly. Wait. Until you reach my age, then you’ll understand. Young people need to practice moderation, if you indulge too much, you’ll regret it sooner or later. Don’t worry about me, I could be 80 and still be fine. How so? Wang Chen asked curiously. Can’t you do it now? You better watch out, I heard the goji berries from Ning province are pretty. Good. Want me to get some for you? Get lost, Wang Sitsong said angrily. If I can do it, you can too. How could I not be able to? I’m only 30, right in the prime of A. Man’s life, what do you know? Huh, speaking of which, how does such a busy person have time to call me? Wang Chen laughed. I’ve indeed been quite busy lately, dealing with all sorts of things that have me overwhelmed, not like you who gets to enjoy life every day, Wang Sichong said with a bit of a headache. Cherish your last days of college, once you graduate, you’ll understand that being a rich second generation isn’t that easy. Just give up, my family says I’m not working hard enough. If I do work hard, I’m still not cut out for it. The business world is like a battlefield, full of dangers and surprises, Wang Sichong sighed deeply, then became serious. Since we parted. Waze at the bar, I’ve been wanting to find an opportunity to introduce you to some friends. The day after tomorrow, there’s a highly private auction taking place not far from Hua Gua, featuring various antiques, calligraphy, paintings, and private collections. I believe you’ll be interested. Moreover, some top second-generation individuals from Magic City will be attending. Do you have time the day after tomorrow? If so, come along, and I’ll introduce you to a few friends. Wang Chen thought for a moment, and then asked, is it safe to hold it in international waters? Don’t worry, Wang Sietzong replied. Everyone attending are big shots and celebrities from various fields. If you’re still concerned, you can bring a bodyguard. This auction is a private event held by Christie’s every three years, not announced to the public, and it definitely won’t disappoint you, so rest assured. Alright, send me the time and address, and I’ll come over the day after tomorrow. Wang Chen replied, I have time before school starts. How many days do I need to stay in international waters? You can come back anytime, and it’s a coincidence that the schedule has been moved up this year, otherwise… You wouldn’t make it back before school starts. Wang Sikong also laughed. That’s perfect. Wang Chen couldn’t help but feel excited about it. After chatting casually for a few moments, Wang Sikong concluded the topic, saying, then it settled. When we meet the day after tomorrow, we can have a good chat. Sure, see you the day after tomorrow. Wang Chen then hung up the phone. The circle of rich second-generation elites in the magic city is a mysterious existence in the eyes of others. For him, as long as he. Once, he can easily integrate into any circle and it would be the top tier. This confidence comes from the system and the background behind him. He befriended Wang Sikong. Because he saw that he was a decent person, Wang Chen had no interest in getting to know ordinary people. Sitting beside him, Le Yan rolled her eyes and looked at Wang Chen. Saying, is that Wang Sikong’s voice I hear? Sister Yan, do you know Wang Sikong? Wang Chen asked curiously. I’ve met him a few times, not too familiar. It seems you. To have a good relationship, he’s willing to take you to the Christie’s private auction held every three years. Is there a problem with that? I’ve never attended a Christie’s private auction either. I heard you need to be recommended by a member to qualify. In recent years, many world-class collectibles have appeared at Christie’s. Auctions. Last time, a painting by Da Vinci, Salvatore Mundi, sold for a staggering $450 .3 million, breaking the previous record for art auctions. Lu Yen side. So it seems. There are quite a few good items. After pondering for a moment, Wang Chen became even more eager. His money-making venture might just be realized at this auction. Spending $450 million on a painting is truly a case of rich people being foolish with their money. One can only imagine how much of that is inflated. However, for Wang Chen, money is not an issue, he can buy as many collectibles as there are, which is a decent investment. Christie’s, as a world-class auction house, values its reputation more than life itself. They have professional appraisal teams to verify the authenticity of the auction items, which Wang Chen finds trustworthy. Coming back to his senses, Wang Chen asked Liu Yan, Sister Yan, has the LaFerrari arrived in the Magic City yet? It’s currently going through customs procedures, it should be in the store within an hour. Liu Yan smiled, according to your request, it’s in a bright red color, fully equipped otherwise. LaFerrari, along with McLaren P1 and Porsche 918, it is known as one of the three divine cars. Limited to 499 units worldwide, with a starting price exceeding 20 million yuan. Adding custom options and import taxes, the final price could exceed. 50 million. A small target of 0.5. The divine car that he could only see online in his past life, Wangchen can now acquire. In this life, Wangchen has enough capital and. Confidence. Although LaFerrari is considered a car that everyone has online, in reality, there are very few LaFerraris sold in the entire Huawei. To date, there have been. Fewer than 20 sold. It’s hard to see one in the magic city for a year, let alone in other cities. In the world of supercars, the Ferrari LaFerrari is undoubtedly the most dazzling star. It represents ultimate speed, dreams, and luxurious craftsmanship, captivating countless car enthusiasts. Wang Chen, with his immense wealth in this life, is determined to acquire it. What you may not know is that usually, the threshold for ordering a LaFerrari is quite high. Generally, you need to own at least two limited edition Ferraris or five flagship models to be able to order a LaFerrari. Le Yen, with a beaming smile, patiently explained to Wang Chen. Her eyes reflected a sense of reverence and pride for this top luxury car brand. And the ordering process is extremely cumbersome and complex. It starts with placing an order with us, then sending the configuration to Ferrari’s headquarters, which arranges the production. The entire process takes a considerable amount of time, you won’t get the car in less than six months. Le Yen paused slightly inside, however, during this long wait, some orders inevitably face changes due to the prolonged waiting time. Some clients may find their funds tied up and, in desperation, have no choice but to abandon their orders. As a result, those LaFerraris that are halfway through production or already completed end up in an awkward situation of being unclaimed. Generally, when such orders arise, many buyers still flock to them, often leading to a bidding frenzy, and even then, it’s a case of having a price but no market, making it hard to secure an order. Fortunately, you have the industrial and commercial bank facilitating the connection, allowing you to contact Ferrari’s headquarters directly. They transferred the available order to you and even expedited the configuration you needed overnight, which is why it was airlifted to you. Now it made sense. Wangchen finally understood, and the doubts in his heart dissipated. Ordering a Ferrari was inherently a complicated affair, let alone a LaFerrari. As a world-class luxury car model, each LaFerrari is crafted with the utmost care by the finest artisans of the Ferrari family, meticulously handmade. From the outline of the car’s body to the selection of interior materials. Every detail is tailored to the owner’s unique preferences and personality, each aspect engraved with a personal mark. But because of this, the time cost is extremely high, a production cycle of six months to a year is quite normal. These modern technological marvels, which embody both speed and luxury, are worth tens of millions, which is no small sum. Clients ordering a LaFerrari might face a financial winter, with their cash flow breaking down urgently, needing a large sum of money to turn over. Under the pressure of reality, even if they are reluctant, they can only grit their teeth, give up on the final payment, and cancel. The order, leaving behind only regret. Money is not a problem, whatever amount is needed, I can swipe my card immediately. Wang Chen waved his hand casually. Since this is a resale order, there will inevitably be some markup on the price. Adding various taxes and fees, the total you need to pay is 68,880,000 yuan. Lu Yen took out a tablet and handed it to Wang Chen, saying, here’s the detailed bill, take a look. Just swipe the card. Wang Chen took the tablet, glanced at it briefly, then pulled out his bank card and said decisively. Alright. Liu Yen took the bank card, then pulled out the POS machine she had prepared earlier and swiped it. Please enter your password. Liu. Yen then handed the POS to Wang Chen. Wang Chen raised his hand and entered the password. Payment successful. Ziz. As the payment went through, the POS machine spat. Out the transaction receipt. With Long Lily, the private banker from the industrial and commercial bank, by his side, there was naturally no awkward situation like the last time when he purchased the Sky Palace, where the transfer had been processed. Ding! The system detected that the host spent $68,880,000, double cashback $137 ,760,000. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 6 ,888 system points. Almost simultaneously, the cold mechanical voice of the system echoed in Wang Chen’s mind. However, he remained. Expressionless. He was no longer the excited youth who had just crossed over thrilled at the thought of 50 million. The cold cash of over 7 billion in his bank. Account no longer caused his heart to waver easily at the accumulation of wealth. Seeing the payment go through, Li Yan also wore a broad smile. She could earn quite a bit. From this order. Of course, being able to befriend someone like Wang Chen, a top-tier rich second generation, was the most important thing for her. Long Lily watched as Wang. Chen paid over 60 million without blinking, astonished. Even though she was a private banker for the bank and had encountered numerous wealthy and powerful individuals, she couldn’t help but marvel at Wang Chen’s extravagance, in the afternoon, a specialized transport vehicle smoothly came to a stop at the entrance of the Ferrari. Sales Center. This type of vehicle is designed to meet special transportation needs, equipped with a high -end shock absorption system that outperforms ordinary trucks. Inside, there are special securing devices that can be precisely customized according to the specific shape of the sports car, ensuring that it does not shift even slightly during. Transport. Because the car is quite expensive, we drove slowly to avoid any issues on the road, Li Yan smiled. Please wait a moment, the car will be unloaded shortly. Li Yan stepped forward and entered the password on the truck’s door. The staff, who had been on standby, moved into action with trained precision, carefully unloading the LaFerrari from the transport vehicle. Then, a professional driver smoothly drove the car to the already prepared delivery ceremony site. Before long, under the lights, a bright red LaFerrari appeared before Wang Chen. The car’s sleek lines flowed like water, extending from the front to the rear, showcasing the beauty of speed. The yellow calipers and the brake discs exuding a sense of violent aesthetics combined with the proud prancing horse on the front and the initials of Wang Chen’s name signed on the red doors, all highlighted its noble identity. The LaFerrari, Ferrari’s top-tier sports car, exemplifies cutting-edge design. As the pinnacle masterpiece of the Ferrari family, each car is a rare, custom-made treasure, with no two identical in the world. It bore the license plate A.66666, which Wang Chen had arranged through the industrial and commercial bank, requiring considerable effort. A luxury car paired with the best license plate. In a metropolis like Magic City, a purely numerical license plate is already extremely rare, let alone a 5-6 combination like this. Buying a luxury car only requires enough money, but to match it with a good license plate, one needs sufficient identity and status. If you drive a luxury car, others might look down on you, calling you a rich second generation living off your family’s wealth. What a waste. But if you have a top -tier license plate, everyone who sees it will say, impressive. This guy is not simple. I believe you can’t wait any longer, go experience it, Lian said. With a beaming smile, she didn’t provide much introduction, simply taking out the key and handing it to Wang Chen. Since Wang Chen was willing to pay such a premium for the LaFerrari, he must already be well aware of its performance and specifications. The performance and configuration of a car at this level are top-notch, as long as Wang. Chen likes it, that’s enough, no need for further explanation. Wang Chen took the key, opened the classic butterfly doors of the Ferrari and sat down in the driver’s seat, closing the door behind him. The red interior and the iconic prancing horse logo came into view. Wang Chen’s signature was visible throughout the car. The central panel was made of carbon fiber and the D-shaped steering wheel added to the intense racing feel of the LaFerrari’s cockpit. Wang Chen gripped the steering wheel feeling a sense of unity with the machine. Under the influence of the soul of the machine entry, he felt as if he was already racing the LaFerrari through countless tracks, familiar with its temperament and performance as if he knew his own body. He gently pressed the start button. V room. In an instant, the LaFerrari beneath him roared to life like a long sleeping beast awakened, its slender headlights suddenly illuminating. The car trembled slightly, and the engine let out a series of furious roars, the deafening sound crashing into the hearts of everyone present like heavy blows. The entire sales center was filled with the LaFerrari’s furious roar, overwhelming. Wang Chen sat inside the car, and apart. From the engine’s roar, he could hear nothing else. Under the lights, the LaFerrari shone like a radian S -U-N-I-T was not like a family car, it belonged on the racetrack. It should roam freely on the world’s top circuits. Wang Chen turned off the car and got out. Could you ask Sister Yen to find someone to drive this McLaren P1 back? For me? Wang Chen said. No problem, I’ll arrange for someone to follow your LaFerrari shortly, Liu Yan replied with a smile on her delicate, fair face. I was actually thinking of having dinner with you, this little fresh meat, but it seems you can’t wait. Ha, Sister Yan has plans, how could I refuse? You’ve helped me a lot, so it’s my turn. To treat you, Wang Chen chuckled lightly. To be honest, Liu Yan was indeed a bit older than him and not exactly his type. However, she had just helped him secure the LaFerrari. So it was only right for Wang Chen to express his gratitude by having a meal with her. As the lights began to glow, they arrived at the Bund. The warm yellow light spilled through the intricately carved window frames. The three of them walked into the restaurant, greeted by a scene of ancient elegance in the decor. Solid wood tables and chairs were neatly arranged and the tableware glimmered with a soft silver sheen under the light. The air was filled with a subtle fragrance of tea and a faint aroma of food. A melodious gujing tune gently played in their ears, like a babbling brook, instantly calming their hearts. The waiter led them to an Excellent table by the window where they could overlook the bustling scenery of the Oriental Pearl Tower. People came and went, all in a hurry. Some were rushing for their livelihoods, others were chasing their dreams. The insatiable desires left them unable to find relief. As soon as they sat down, a waiter dressed in traditional attire. Presented the menu. Wang Chen leaned slightly forward, indicating to hand the menu to Liu Yen with both hands, displaying his gentlemanly demeanor, Sister Yen, you go ahead. And order. Liyan was not polite, lightly flipping through the menu, they have quite a few signature dishes here, this garlic bean noodles must not be missed, and that. Tender and flavorful home-cooked pomfret, tsk tsk, just thinking about it makes my mouth water. After saying that, she skillfully ordered several dishes and then turned to Wang Chen, saying, Xiaoyu, see if there’s anything else you want to eat, don’t be polite with your sister. Lily, you decide, I’m fine with anything, Wang Chen smiled. As he took the menu and handed it directly to Long Lily, casually adding a few of the restaurant’s signature dishes before the waiter quietly retreated. Xiao Yu, are you getting used to life in Magic City? Liu Yan asked with a smile. It’s alright, Wang Chan replied with a smile. I heard you’re from Rong province, I wonder what your family does? Liu Yan tilted her head to look at Wang Chan, her face adorned with a seemingly casual smile as she asked. It seemed like ordinary small talk but a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes. Wang Chan was so young yet could be a VIP at the industrial and commercial bank. She was genuinely curious about his family background. It’s nothing much. Just doing a bit of small business, Wang Chen said, still wearing a gentle smile, speaking calmly. Lu Yan’s lips curled slightly, she gently shook the wine glass in her. Hand in half jokingly said, small business? Don’t try to fool me, sister, for someone your age to be so carefree, surrounded by luxury cars and beautiful women, that’s small. Business can’t be simple. Wang Chen remained unhurried, lifting his teacup to take a sip, his expression calm as he said, sister Yan, it’s really not as exaggerated. As you think. My family just does some traditional small trade in Rong province. Hearing this, Lu Yan still had her doubts but felt it was inappropriate to press further. She, silently scoffed in her heart. What the hell is a small business? Which small business can reach the scale of a VIP at the industrial and commercial bank? Before long, exquisite dishes were served one after another by the waiter. The first dish to arrive was the garlic bean noodles, steaming hot, with the freshness of garlic perfectly. Blending with the richness of the bean noodles filling the air with a delightful aroma. Lu Yan smiled at Wang Chen and said, Xiaoyu, try this, it’s their specialty. guarantee you’ll want more after tasting it. Wang Chen also smiled in agreement, picking up a piece with his chopsticks and savoring it before praising, it’s truly delicious. The texture is so fresh it feels like my eyebrows might fall off. Soon after, the home-cooked pommes frites was served. The fish was roasted to a bright red color, with a slightly crispy and fragrant skin, while the flesh inside was incredibly tender, melting in the mouth. Li Yan skillfully picked out a piece of fish belly and placed it in long lilies. Bull, saying, Lily, this fish belly is the softest, you should eat more. Long Lily quickly thanked her, and the three of them chatted and ate, the atmosphere growing increasingly harmonious. At that moment, the gujing music in the restaurant changed to fishing boats singing at dusk, the melodious tune complementing the bustling at tranquil night scene outside the window. A young lady in traditional attire danced gracefully in front of the window, her skirt swirling like blooming flowers, capturing the attention of many diners in the restaurant. Just then, the other signature dishes they ordered began to arrive at the table. Golden crispy ribbonfish. Crispy skinned. Pigeon. Plain boiled soybean tofu pot. Honey glazed sweet potatoes. After a satisfying meal, the three of them enjoyed the honey glazed sweet potatoes while gazing out the window. At this time, the bond was illuminated by the night and lights, with neon flickering, and the surrounding streets were still bustling with people and traffic. Sister Yen, it’s getting late, thank you for today. I’ll treat you another day, Wangchen said after glancing at the time and getting up. Liu Yen waved her hand. Don’t mention it, let’s just gather more often in the future. Long Lily also got up and the three of them walked out of the restaurant together. The night breeze outside brought a slight chill but also refreshed the spirit. The driver arranged by Lu Yan had been waiting at the door and after bidding farewell to Lu Yan, Wang Chan and Long Lily got into the car. Wang Chan took out the key to unlock the LaFerrari. As he opened the door, the red door of the LaFerrari unfolded like the wings of a butterfly. Long Lily, wearing high heels, slid into the passenger seat of the LaFerrari. She fastened her seatbelt, feeling a bit constricted around her chest, and adjusted it down a bit. After closing the door, Wang Chen pressed the brake and hit the ignition button. Boom. Instantly, the entire LaFerrari roared to life like a waking beast, producing a deafening roar that sent adrenaline surging. Wang Chen’s eyebrows raised continuously. Even though he had driven luxury cars like the McLaren P1, the LaFerrari gave him a different sensation, as thrilling as driving for the first time. Wangshin skillfully shifted gears and the LaFerrari sped out onto the street, heading towards the Sky Palace. Under the glow of the streetlights in the Magic City, the LaFerrari streaked through the night like a red lightning bolt. Wangshin steadily increased his speed, always keeping it within the speed limit. Under the effect of the Machine Soul Delight entry, the LaFerrari felt like a tamed steed under his command, responding to his every gesture. The driver of the McLaren P1 closely followed behind, not daring to be careless, fully focused, fearing that a moment’s inattention would cause him to lose track. After more than 10 minutes, Wang Chen returned to the Sky Palace, directing the driver to park the McLaren P1 in his spot. He opened the hood of the McLaren P1 and took out a stack of cash from the storage compartment, handing it to the driver and saying, thanks, brother, please say thank you to Sister Yen for me. The driver accepted the cash, instantly. Beaming, thank you, boss. I’ll definitely pass on the message. After Wang Chen finished speaking, he returned to the LaFerrari. Can you help me contact a reliable bodyguard company tomorrow? It needs to be professional, preferably with veterans who have over 10 years of experience, he said casually to Long Lily. Bodyguards? Long. Lily asked, a bit puzzled, but replied, no problem, I’ll contact you as soon as I get back. Wang Chen was filled with anticipation for the upcoming trip to the high seas. Although it was an invitation from Wang Sikong, safety had to be considered. Wang Chen was strong, but he lacked real combat experience, after all, it was the high seas, and, even if a few people died, no one would know. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Hiring bodyguards was imperative. Long Lily, as a private banker at the industrial and commercial bank, had access to numerous banking resources. Therefore, there was no need for Wang Chin to run around to hire a bodyguard. He could just wait for her to screen candidates before making a decision. Where do you live? I’ll take you back, Wang Chin said calmly. No need to trouble yourself. I can just take a taxi back. Long Lily replied, her expression tense as she waved her hands repeatedly. Come on, it’s still early, I’ll drive you back, Wang Chin said, starting the car and driving. Out of the kafko hijing number one. Alright then, I live in the central apartment, not far from here. Returning alone to the Tianmu palace, Wang Chin appeared calm and unhurried. Long lily, as his private banker, was well within his grasp. He just needed to wait a little longer. Wang Chin took out his phone, opened Feixin, and found Zhang. Ro’s profile picture. He dialed a video call. In the dead of night, the Tianmu palace was dimly lit, creating an ambiguous atmosphere. The room was a mess, clothes scattered everywhere, and torn black stockings carelessly tossed about. Zhang Rou lay breathlessly in Wang Chan’s arms, her eyes hazy, her body drenched in sweat, and the sheets beneath her soaked. It took her a long time to regain her composure. After a while, she seemed to recover some strength, feeling as if she had come back to life. At this moment, Zhang Rou finally had the time to carefully examine the luxurious mansion that exceeded her understanding. What met her eyes was a collection of high-end furniture. She had never seen before, with every detail showcasing exquisite luxury. Especially the panoramic glass skylight, which presented the most bustling night view of the Bund. In Shanghai without reservation, making one feel as if they were in a dream. Zhang Rou’s heart was greatly shaken. She had never imagined a house could be so luxurious. She had just arrived at the Tianmu Palace and had no time to take in her surroundings before being pulled into games by Wang Chen. Now she finally had the time to notice the details of the room, and the more she looked, the more she liked it. Zhang Rou, bare-skinned, snuggled tightly in Wang Chen’s embrace, her eyes filled with curiosity, softly, asked, Honey, this house is really beautiful. When did you buy it? Just a few days ago, Wang Chen replied with a smile, his tone casual. This house is so big, it feels like it could easily accommodate 10 people, especially in a prime location like Luji Azui. How much did it cost? Wang Chen replied nonchalantly, Not much, around 200. Million. Upon hearing this, Zhang Rou’s face froze. Her already weak body suddenly felt limp, almost slipping from Wang Chen’s arms. 200 million. Zhang Rou’s. Voice trembled noticeably. This figure was an astronomical number that felt utterly unattainable to her. In her past life, she had never dared to harbor such extravagant wishes, let alone purchase property for 200 million. Zhang Rou came from an ordinary family and her family had always lived in a small three-bedroom apartment. Compared to this mansion worth nearly 200 million, the difference was like heaven and earth. Although she knew Wang Chen was wealthy, able to casually buy luxury cars. Like McLaren’s, the extent of his wealth still far exceeded her imagination. He had casually bought this 200 million house, which was truly unexpected for someone his age. For most people, buying a house was a significant life event that required careful consideration and deliberation before making a decision. Yet Wang Chen had bought it outright. From what Zhang Rou knew of him, the entire process likely took less than a day. The gap between them was undeniable. Zhang Rou looked up, her fair face still. Flushed with lingering color and curiously asked, Honey, what does your family do? Wang Chen replied casually, Why, do you want to know? Oh, I’m just curious. Zhang. Rou pouted playfully. Do you know the Vanguard Heavy Industry Group in Rong province? My surname is Wang. Ah. Zhang Rou couldn’t help but cover her mouth, her face. Filled with shock. The Vanguard Heavy Industry Group is one of the top enterprises in all of Hua Gua and even on a global scale, it is a leading presence. She never expected. That Wang Chen was actually the young master of the Vanguard Group. This identity truly astonished her. Zhang Rou felt her heart race, as if it could leap out at any moment. At this moment, she felt that the man before her was increasingly charming. Zhang Rou put on a coat, stood up, and walked to the balcony, feeling the cool breeze blowing, from both sides of the Huangpu River. After a while, she finally calmed down. At a height of over 200 meters, overlooking the night view of the Magic City, the lights, below were dazzling, and the neon flickered. Only standing here could one truly feel the prosperity and charm of the Magic City. The 10-mile foreign concession was a place of fireworks, where winds and clouds met at Huangpu beach. This feeling is so good. No wonder it’s a 200 million mansion, standing here feels like the entire magic city is in my arms. Zhang Rou looked at the night view of the magic city and couldn’t help but exclaim. You’re just feeling fresh since you just arrived, after living here for a while, it will be just that, Wang Chen said lightly as he came up behind Zhang Rou, looking out at the scenery. How could that be? A house like this, I wouldn’t even dare to dream about it. I estimate I won’t get tired of living here no matter how long it is. Zhang Rou turned around, her eyes sparkling, and said, this is. Nearly a 200 million house, how extravagant. If you want to live here, just move in tomorrow, Wang Chen said with a smile. Ah, husband, do you really want me to. Move in? Zhang Rou looked at Wang Chen with surprise. Of course, you are my woman, which means you are the mistress of this house. If I don’t let you live here, who else? Would I let? Wang Chen said gently with a smile. Zhang Rou playfully called out, husband him. Wang Chen saw Zhang Rou looking at him with bright eyes filled with affection. Her gentle eyes were already misty. You are so good to me, I love you. Zhang Rou tightly hugged Wang Chen, burying her head in his chest, her heart full of emotion. Although she knew she was just one of Wang Chen’s many women, his kindness made her truly feel happiness. She thought that even if she ultimately couldn’t walk into the hall of marriage with Wang Chen, having these beautiful memories was already enough. If I don’t treat you well, who should I treat well? Wang Chen looked out the window, his gaze deep and somewhat meaningful. Zhang Rou wrapped her arms around Wang Chen’s strong waist, tiptoed, and gently kissed his face. Her eyes were full of charm as she said. Softly, husband, I feel like my gaming skills are still a bit rusty. Can you teach me again? Wang Chen was slightly taken aback, looking down at Zhang Rou. This was her. First time actively seeking a challenge, and he couldn’t help but ask, can you still handle it? Um hum, I’m all rested up. Zhang Rou replied with a smile. Are you sure? I love you. Zhang Rou pressed her head against Wang Chen’s chest, the sound of a strong heartbeat echoing in her ears. Although the intimate contact earlier in the night had left her exhausted, right now, she had only one thought in her mind to completely melt her body into Wang Chen’s embrace. To be inseparable, to become one. This was an incredibly happy thing for a couple. Faced with such a passionate Zhang Rou, Wang Chen found it hard to refuse. So, he picked Zhang Rou up and walked toward the bedroom. After a night of intimacy, when Wang Chen woke up again, it was already 10 in the morning. He got up and stretched his body, feeling refreshed. Wang Chen turned. Back to look at Zhang Rou who was still fast asleep. He hadn’t expected her to be so enthusiastic this time. Taking this opportunity, Wang Chen had also unlocked quite a few gameplay features. Although it ultimately ended due to Zhang Rou’s exhaustion, it still surprised Wang Chen. Such a small body could actually unleash tremendous energy.A glimmer of golden light flashed in Wang Chen’s eyes and the system panel immediately appeared before him. 83 affection, 100 skills, intermediate painting, intermediate sales techniques. Wang Chin looked at Zhang Rou with a doting gaze, with her affection maxed out, he no longer needed to worry about it decreasing. From body to soul, this woman before him completely belonged to him. After a night of labor, Zhang Rou was utterly exhausted. Slowly waking up at noon. You can’t blame me, you were the one who seduced me first, Wang Chin said, shrugging his shoulders as he looked at Zhang Rou’s resentful eyes. You bad guy, you don’t even know how to cherish me. If you scare me away, just see if you regret it. A charming blush appeared on Zhang Rou’s fair, dewy face, making her look even more enchanting. Hearing this, Wang Chen chuckled and replied, wasn’t it you who provoked me first being both inexperienced and playful? Once you feel better. I’ll take you out for some shopping today to make it up to you. Just wait a bit longer, I feel like I’m completely worn out. Zhang Rou lay on the bed, feeling utterly weak, wanting nothing more than to lie there in a daze, not wanting to go anywhere. Even the innate desire of women to shop didn’t pique her interest. With no other choice. Wang Chan ordered a bunch of takeout to eat at home. To help Zhang Rou recover, he ordered everything from bird’s nest and shark fin to abalone and sea cucumber. The meal. Cost 18,890 yuan. After the meal, Wang Chan’s phone suddenly rang, it was a call from Long Lily. Young Master Wang, the bodyguard arrangements have been made, you should come. Take a look. Okay, send me the address, and I’ll be there shortly. I’m right next to your LaFerrari. Alright. Wang Chan hung up the phone and turned to Zhang Rou. saying, I’m going out to take care of something, you rest well at home. Om hom, I’ll wait for you to come back, Zheng Rou said softly, her little head tucked under the blanket. In the underground parking lot of the Tianmu Palace, Wang Chen exited the elevator, where Long Lily was standing next to the LaFerrari, holding a lot of documents. Wang Chen walked over, unlocking the car while asking, since we’re here, why not come up and sit for a bit? Long Lily smiled, I just arrived too. As she was his employee, she felt a bit shy about directly going up. Long Lily slid into the passenger seat of the LaFerrari and fastened her seatbelt. Seeing this, Wang Chen started the car and smoothly drove out of the underground garage. At this moment, Long Lily was organizing the documents in her hands and said, Young Master Wang, I’ve compiled three professional bodyguard companies in Magic City for you. Let me read them to you. Jean Dunn Company, all bodyguard personnel come from retired Special Forces soldiers from various military districts, as well as outstanding fighters from martial arts and sports schools providing various types of bodyguard services. JNN Security Service Company, Limited, is a company authorized by the Magic City Public Security Bureau, which has grown strong due to its social and police power in Magic City. Its bodyguard team is composed of veterans from Special Forces and the Central Guard Bureau, capable of providing VIP private bodyguard services for important domestic and foreign figures, high-level business executives, and entertainment stars. Shingho Special Guard Company, most members are recent veterans from special forces who meet 27 international standards, with a strict teaching and assessment elimination mechanism. They have a comprehensive training support center, conducting thorough background checks and multiple security measures, for bodyguard personnel to ensure service quality. Among these three companies, Jianan Security has the strongest capabilities. Which one do you think we should go to? First? After pondering for a moment, Wang Chen said, let’s go to Jianan. Half an hour later, Wang Chin parked the car downstairs at Jianan Security Service Company, Limited. In Suwei District .at the entrance of John Company, General Manager Lin Chin, accompanied by several executives, had been waiting for a long time. Upon seeing Wang Chin’s LaFerrari slowly drive in, he immediately greeted him with a beaming smile. Young Master Wang, your presence is an honor, I apologize for not welcoming you sooner. My name is Lin Chin, I am the General Manager of John, and these are the backbone of our company. Lin Chin extended his hand warmly. Wang Chen turned off the engine and got out. Of the car, shaking his hand politely in response, Manager Lin, I’m sorry for the trouble of waiting for me. Long Lily followed behind, nodding slightly in acknowledgement. Young Master Wang, Miss Long, please come inside, I have prepared some fine Long Jing tea for us to enjoy while we chat. Lin Chen gestured for them to enter. Before Wang Chen arrived, Long Lily had already contacted him, informing him that Wang Chen was a private VIP client of ICBC, so he did not dare to be negligent. He had brought several. executives to greet him downstairs in advance. Upon entering the reception room, the decor was elegant and atmospheric, with the fragrance of tea wafting through the air. After everyone took their seats, Lynchian personally poured tea for the two of them and then began to enthusiastically introduce his company’s bodyguard services. Young master. Wang, you’ve come to the right place. Arjan has a well-known reputation here in the Magic City. As I mentioned to Miss Long earlier, our bodyguard team consists of. Retired veterans from Special Forces and the Central Guard Bureau, the elite among elites, each one formidable. As he spoke, Lin Shin handed over a detailed brochure, this. Contains a comprehensive introduction to our various services, along with some classic case studies for your review. Wang Chen took the brochure. Bodyguard Special. Services, Emergency Crisis Management. Risk Assessment, Security Strategy Development, Information Security Assurance, etc. He casually flipped through a few pages, nodding. In approval. Lin Chen, observing his reaction, continued, as for the pricing, young master Wang, you can rest assured that we will offer you the most favorable rates. We won’t make empty promises, you get what you pay for. If you want top-notch security, we will provide top-notch service and you will not spend a penny more than necessary. Manager Lin, I trust you, otherwise, I wouldn’t have come directly to John. However, I still want to see the personnel first, as the key to bodyguard work lies in there. Skills and experience. Wang Chen set the brochure down and smiled. Of course, of course. Lin Shen quickly stood up and called out at the door. Before long, six tall bodyguards marched in with synchronized steps, standing in a row, each with a stern expression, exuding a fierce aura. Report, Wolf-Fung team assembled, awaiting instructions. One of them stepped forward and reported loudly. Wang Chen’s gaze fell on the leader. He was fit, muscles taut, with a resolute and decisive look in his eyes, clearly a battle-hardened individual. Wang Chen activated his true eye to take a look. Name, Lung Fong Age, 32 height, 185 cm charm, 80 physique, 96 favorability, 50 skills. Advanced combat, advanced reconnaissance, advanced marksmanship, intermediate demolition, the other members were all around 30 years old, with physiques above 90, and proficient in various specialized skills. Wang Chen nodded in satisfaction and asked, what is your name? Report, my name is Li Ximing, codename Lung Fong. Lung Feng’s voice was loud and full of energy. Tell me about your team’s specialties. How would you respond to an emergency situation? Wang Chen leaned back on the sofa, seemingly, casually asking, while in reality, he was carefully observing their reactions. Leng Fong stood straight and answered clearly, Young Master Wang, all members of our team have undergone rigorous training in counterterrorism, hostage rescue, and emergency response, and we excel in handling various complex and changing environments. In the event of an emergency, our first priority is to ensure your personal safety, swiftly relocating you to a secure area while taking appropriate measures to neutralize threats based. On the situation, never engaging in prolonged combat, with your safety as our top priority. Wang Chen nodded slightly, somewhat satisfied with this answer from Lung. Phong. He stood up and walked in front of the bodyguards, carefully examining each one, occasionally reaching out to pinch their arms to test their strength. Long Lily added. From the side, young master Wang, I’ve also looked into it before, the bodyguards from John have done a thorough background check, with no negative records. Moreover, there will be regular psychological and skill assessments to ensure the bodyguard’s physical condition remains at its best. Lin Shin was pleased to see Wang Chen’s initial approval of the bodyguard candidates. He quickly seized the opportunity to introduce the service details. Young Master Wang, our bodyguard service is comprehensive and customized. Take this six-person team in front of you, for instance, they are assigned to provide 24-hour dedicated service. Regardless of day or night, as long as you give the order, they can respond immediately, fully safeguarding your safety. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and asked, how is the price calculated? Young Master Wang, as a VIP of. ICBC, we won’t beat around the bush, the service fee for this team is 680,000 a month. Don’t be misled by the price, every penny is well spent. These six have clearly defined roles, some are responsible for close protection, some for scouting routes and assessing risks in advance, and others are skilled in operating various security equipment, capable of setting up a safety perimeter at any time, ensuring that no matter where you are, you are as safe as a fortress. Wang Chen crossed his arms and gestured for him to continue. Seeing this, Lin Chen added, our company currently has over 3,000 long-term security personnel and can mobilize more than 1,000 temporary security staff. All of them are from special forces and retired personnel from the Central Guard Bureau. In case of special situations, such as needing to temporarily increase manpower or deploy special equipment, our company has an emergency allocation mechanism and will fully cooperate without hesitation. What the hell? Wang Chen was taken aback. Standing up and exclaiming, is your company legitimate? Why hire so many veterans? a real protection umbrella company? It was no wonder Wang Chan was surprised. Over 4,000 veterans, especially those from Special Forces and the Central Guard Bureau, equipping these people with the right gear could take down a weaker small country. If they were further equipped with heavy armored combined brigade gear, a group of over 4,000 could form a reinforced heavy armored combined unit and if sent to the neighboring monkey country, they could probably seize a considerable territory. Manager Lin waved his hand and said with a wry smile, Young Master Wang, rest assured, we are licensed by the Public Security Bureau of Magic City, otherwise, we wouldn’t dare to hire so many people. Hiring so many is also unavoidable. So many veterans retire each year, and without relevant survival skills in society, many veterans can’t earn a living and can only work as security guards or in factories, unable even to marry. Those who come from special forces with professional skills are somewhat better off, able to become bodyguards with decent salaries to support their families. The market isn’t doing well now. And supporting so many people is putting a strain on the company’s finances. The price of 680,000 is already very favorable. Long Lily quietly said from the side, young master. Wang, John’s qualifications are absolutely fine. They are registered with the Ministry of Public Security. In terms of cost-effectiveness, John’s quote is reasonable. In the industry. For security teams of the same level, other companies charge higher prices and may not even offer such comprehensive follow-up services. Wang Chin pondered. For a moment upon hearing this, gently patting Leng Fong on the shoulder, then turned to Manager Lin and said, let’s book for a year, swiped the card. Manager Lin’s eyes widened instantly upon hearing this. A year? How long has it been since such a large order? The surprise on his face was evident, and after a moment of shock, he quickly responded, all right, young master Wang. You are truly generous. I’ll go prepare the relevant documents right away. After speaking, Manager Lin hurried out of the reception room. In a short while, he returned with a pile of documents and a POS machine. Young Master Wang, the annual fee is $8,160,000. To give you a discount, let’s say $8 million, and we can be friends. Take a look, he said, handing the documents to Wang Chen. Wang Chen took them and carefully reviewed the relevant service terms, nodding as he said, swiped the card. Manager Lin felt a surge of joy in his heart and quickly took out the POS machine, his hands trembling, slightly as he presented it to Wang Chen. His eyes were fixed on Wang Chen’s card swiping action, as if afraid this deal might fall through. Payments successful. Ding. The. System detected that the host spent 8 million, double cashback 16000000. Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning 800 system points. It wasn’t until the crisp sound. Of the successful transaction echoed that he let out a long sigh of relief, his face beaming with smiles as he repeatedly thanked, Young Master Wang, thank you so much. Rest assured, from now on, the Wolf Fong team will be at your service around the clock, ensuring your satisfaction. Long Fong stepped forward, standing tall, and saluted. Sharply, looking firmly at Wang Chen as he said, Young Master Wang, thank you for your trust. Our Wolf Fong team bows to protect your safety at all costs, ready to face any danger. Ready to face any danger, the other five team members echoed in unison. Their voices echoed in the reception room, exuding an impressive momentum. After finishing their business, Wang Chen and Long Lily stood up to leave. Manager Lin jogged ahead, leading the way and escorting them to the company entrance. Along the way, he didn’t stop talking, expressing gratitude and promising that the follow-up service would be impeccable, occasionally turning to introduce Wang Chen to some of the company’s other security facilities, showing his eagerness. When they reached the LaFerrari, manager Lin even personally opened the car door for Wang Chen, saying, Young Master Wang, take care, and if you need anything in the future, feel free to contact me. Meanwhile, the Wolf Fong team quickly sprang into action, moving in perfect unison. At the command of Captain Lang Fong, two members ran to the parking lot to bring the pre-prepared professional security vehicles to the entrance. The vehicles were equipped with the most advanced communication devices, protective gear, and emergency rescue tools. The other three returned to the company’s equipment room to quickly collect specialized bulletproof vests, close combat weapons, and other personal gear, skillfully putting them on. Lang Fong stayed at the entrance, checking his walkie-talkie, bulletproof vest, and other key equipment once more to ensure everything was in order. Then he stopped Wang Chen, who was about to get in the car, saying, Young Master Wang please wait a moment, I need to check first. Wang Chen immediately halted, curiously watching Lung Fong inspect the vehicle. After speaking, Lung Fong began a meticulous examination around the LaFerrari, not overlooking any small crevice, searching for any potential hidden dangers. He then opened the hood and, using his professional knowledge and experience, checked the engine, wiring, and other critical parts one by one, occasionally testing the temperature with his hand and listening to the sounds of operation. After a moment, Leng. Fong stood up, facing Wang Chen, and confidently reported, young master Wang, the car is fine and can safely hit the road. Wang Chen stood by, taking it all in, and couldn’t help but nod slightly, secretly admiring the professionalism of the Wolfong team. He turned to Long Lily, a satisfied smile on his lips as he said, this money is well spent. I feel much more at ease going to the high seas tomorrow. After all, they are professionals, Long Lily replied. Manager Lin smiled in agreement, saying, young. Master Wang, your safety is of utmost importance. With the Wolfong team escorting you, you can travel with peace of mind. Only then did Wang Chen feel reassured as he got into the LaFerrari. Seeing this, Lungfong quickly directed the team members to take their positions. In both vehicles, the security personnel remained vigilant, constantly. Alert to their surroundings.As the roar of the Rafa engine echoed, the convoy slowly drove out of the John Company, heading towards the Tenmu Palace. Upon returning to The Tianmu Palace, it was discovered that Zhang Rou was no longer in the bedroom, only leaving a message on Faixin saying she was shopping in the mall. Under the arrangement of Captain Langfong, the Wolfong team conducted a thorough inspection of the Tianmu Palace, ensuring there were no issues before leaving two members on duty at the entrance. While the rest returned to the vehicle, ready to respond at any moment. Wang Chen pondered for a moment and said to Long Lily, Lily, contact the sales manager of Zhang Lian. Hai Jing number one and buy an apartment downstairs. Why buy a house? Long Lily asked curiously. They can’t just stay in the car, it’s not a solution. If something really happens, by the time they come up, it’ll be too late. We have plenty of time ahead. Forget it, just call him over. I’ll buy a few more units. Okay, I’ll contact him right away. Long Lily thought to herself, what a wasteful person, buying a house in Zhang Liang Hai Jing number one for the bodyguards to live in. That’s just too extravagant. Before Long, manager Xiao of Zhang Liang Hai Jing number one jogged in. His face was filled with a warm smile, slightly bowing as he respectfully said, young master Wang, long time no. See, do you remember me? I’m the sales manager of Zhongliang Haijing number one. We just met a few days ago, I remember you, Xiaoyan. That’s good to hear, good to hear. I wonder why young master Wang called me over. Manager Xiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, still smiling. This was a top-tier young master, he couldn’t afford to be careless. Wangqin said lightly, how many units are still unsold on this floor and the one below? Manager Xiao’s spirit suddenly lifted. This young master was going to buy more properties? He quickly regained his composure and began to introduce in detail, young master, there’s a 210 square meter three-bedroom unit on the lower floor. It faces south, is fully renovated, and ready to move in. There are also two units around 300 square meters, four bedrooms and two living rooms, with good lighting, they are scenic units that offer a view of the night scenery of the magic city. On the 43rd floor below, there’s also a three-bedroom unit of about 300 square meters that hasn’t been sold. Wang Chen listened, nodded slightly, and, waved his hand, saying, alright, no need for further introductions. I’ll take all the available unit types on these two floors. Give me a discounted price, and you can prepare the relevant paperwork. As soon as he said this, Long Lily’s eyes widened in disbelief. She never expected Wang Chen to be so extravagant, directly buying all the available unit types on two floors. Manager Xiao was also taken aback for a moment. Then the look of surprise on his face could no longer be contained, his voice trembling slightly with excitement. Wang, young master, you, you are truly generous. I’ll hurry to prepare the relevant documents. I guarantee you the best price. Please wait a moment, I’ll be right back. Manager Xiao said as he hurriedly exited the room to prepare the purchase contract and other documents. His speed was even faster than when he arrived. As if afraid Wang Chen would change his mind. Soon, Manager Xiao returned to the Tianmu Palace with several colleagues. He held the quotation sheet and handed it to Wang Chen, saying, Young master, please take a look. There are still four units unsold on the two lower. Floors, totaling 1232 square meters priced at 166,000 per square meter. The total comes to 204,512,000. Young master, you are our most distinguished guest at Zhongliang Hai Jing number 1. I’ve done my utmost to secure a 9.3% discount for you. After rounding down, you only need 190 million to acquire these 4 units and I’ll throw in a parking space and waive 5 years of property fees. This is already our highest sincerity at Zhongliang Hai Jing number 1. What do you think? Upon hearing this, Wang Chen nodded, took out his bank card, and said, Swipe the card, full payment. I will handle it for you right away. I will do my utmost to ensure that the property certificate reaches you as quickly as possible. Manager Xiao took a deep breath and trembled as he accepted the bank card. Under Manager Xiao’s arrangement, the entire sales team began to operate at lightning speed. Two and a half hours later, Wang Chen finished signing the contract. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he entered the password on the POS machine. With the payment successful, a prompt sound echoed in Wang Chen’s mind. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 190 million, with a double cashback of 380 million. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 19,000 system points. Manager Xiao stepped forward, his face beaming with a smile, and said, Thank you, young master Wang, for your continued support of our Zhang Liang Hai Jing number one. As long as you are satisfied living here, that is our greatest honor. He felt that Wang Chen was his life’s benefactor. In the past, it would take half a year to sell a single unit, but Wang Chen had bought five units in just a few days, and they were all large flats. He didn’t dare to say congratulations to Wang Chen for becoming a distinguished member of their Zhang Lian Hai Jing No. 1. That would be too belittling of Wang Chen’s noble status. It seemed that the entire Zhang Lian Hai Jing No. 1 combined didn’t match Wang Chen’s esteemed identity. After years in sales, manager, Xiao finally witnessed what a true wealthy person looked like today. Buying a house was like buying cabbage. Wang Chen, who had just purchased 4 units, still felt it wasn’t enough. He had so many women to consider, so to avoid future troubles, he decided to buy a few more units today. Wang Chen pulled the still-dazed Long Lily along, driving the Ferrari LaFerrari out of Zhongliang Haijing No. 1. He then bought a unit at Tangshan Eping not far away. A small unit of over 300 square meters, priced at around 200,000 per square meter. After discounts, it cost 63 million. He then went to Binjiang Kaichunman and Emerald Binjiang, purchasing a unit at each place. Both were small units, totaling over 700 square meters, costing a total of 1.31 billion. Since he needed. To keep canaries, he had to prepare several units, and they couldn’t be close together, they had to be purchased separately. It wasn’t. That Wang Chen was afraid of a love triangle, but rather to avoid unnecessary trouble. Ding. The system detected that the host spent. 194 million, with a double cashback of 388 million. Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning 19 ,400 system points. System, open the personal panel. A light blue screen appeared before Wang Chen, host, Wang Chen, age, 20, height, 188, charm, 92, physique, 120, normal human limit is 100, stamina, 120, normal human limit is 100, entry, double cashback, entry effect, all reasonable. Expenses will be doubled in return. Limit physique, entry effect, from this moment on, you are the ceiling of human physique. solidification, entry effect, true eye, entry effect, machine soul delight, entry effect, points, 47,357 points, hua sha currency, 7,560,506,206. Wang Chen stared at the series of jaw-dropping numbers on the screen, feeling a sense of calm within, 7 .5 billion. Once upon a time, these astronomical figures were nothing but an unattainable dream to him, but now, they, were vividly before him, the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifted. This feeling is truly addictive. Wang Chen murmured to himself. The light in his eyes was so intense it seemed capable of igniting the air. Wang Chen turned to look at Long Lily beside him, who, still seemed a bit dazed, and the smile on his face deepened, with a beautiful companion by his side and overflowing wealth in his account. The days ahead were destined to be a wild, intoxicating revelry. As the lights began to glow, the night was as dark as ink, when Wang Chen and Long Lily completed all the formalities and returned to the Tianmu Palace. The night had already quietly descended. At the Entrance of the palace, two burly bodyguards with cold, stern gazes stood like statues, dutifully guarding the place. Upon seeing Wang Chen arrive, the bodyguard slightly bowed and said, Young Master Wang. Wang Chen nodded and stepped into the palace. The interior was tranquil, Zhang Rou had not yet returned from shopping. The Wolfong team of six had already been arranged by Wang Chen to reside in a four-bedroom apartment on the 44th floor below him, ensuring they could respond quickly. Lily, why have you been standing by the window for so long? Wang Chen noticed Long Lily lost in the night view outside, her graceful figure captivating. He couldn’t help but. Ask. It feels so beautiful, Long Lily’s beautiful eyes shimmered, carrying a hint of daze as she said, the night here is so. Beautiful, I only truly feel the charm of the magic city standing here. Since you like it here, why not live here? Wang Chen’s lips. Curled into a meaningful smile as he said, I’m serious. Me? Live here? Wang Chen, don’t joke around. Long Lily stiffened, a. Slightly awkward smile tugging at her lips. She understood the deeper meaning behind Wang Chen’s words, being adults, how could she not? Comprehend? A blush crept up her cheeks, and her heart raced involuntarily. I’m not joking, my door is always open for you, Wang Chen, said with a calm smile, his tone genuinely serious. You, you must have a girlfriend, right? Long Lily instinctively asked. After all, someone like Wang Chen, who was wealthy, wouldn’t lack for girlfriends. Plus, he was so young and handsome. After asking, she dared. Not meet his gaze and hurriedly looked down. Her heart raced. Inside, she felt a surge of joy, Wang Chen saying such things proved that her charm had gained his recognition. To be liked by a quality guy like Wang Chen was something any girl would be delighted about. A woman beautifies herself for the one she loves. Yeah, I have many girlfriends, not just one, Wang Chen shrugged, saying it with a calm expression. Upon hearing Wang Chen’s words, Long Lily, forgetting her shyness, looked up at him in astonishment. She had never seen someone so brazen. Wang Chen actually spoke so nonchalantly about having many girlfriends, his expression unchanged, as if it were a matter of course. Originally, Long Lily was imagining a scene of living together with Wang Chen. Now it seemed she couldn’t even be a mistress. A fourth? Or a fifth? Long Lily looked at Wang Chen with a complex expression. She wanted to climb to a higher branch and become a phoenix but she never thought about being a fourth or fifth mistress. Wang Chen stood in front of the panoramic wall, hands behind. His back, his voice deep and magnetic as he said, you know, in this world, some people are born at the top of the pyramid, looking down at the masses. Long Lily nodded in agreement. There’s a saying online that goes well, if you can’t drive a Rolls Royce when you’re born, you probably won’t be able to drive one in your lifetime. You study hard for 10 years, how can that compare to someone who has three generations of business experience? The resources in this society are destined to be in the hands of a small number of people. If you want to climb up, you always have to pay some price. A hint of bitterness appeared on Long Lily’s face, although Wang Chen’s words were harsh, they were very real. You’re right, but matters of the heart can’t be compared to these, Long Lily softly retorted. Ha, high quality men and women are also a kind of resource, Wang Chen turned around, his gaze fixed on her intensely. Regardless of gender, quality resources do not belong to the lower class. Wang Chen’s words struck a nerve, leaving Long Lily momentarily speechless. Unable to respond, Wang Chen took a step forward, gently wrapping his arm around Long Lily’s slender waist. Long Lily’s delicate body trembled, she did not resist but lowered her head, weakly saying, Wang Chen, don’t do this. I’m a bank employee and you’re my boss, we can’t do this. I could get fired. Do you think President Liu would dare? And even if he gets fired, it’s no big deal. Just in time for me to start my company and have him as my secretary. I can’t let go of such a professional talent. Long Lily raised her gaze, her big watery eye shimmering, reflecting Wang Chen’s face. Wang Chen’s head slowly leaned closer. Long Lily’s eyes slightly. Closed, her breathing a bit heavy, her eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings, her hands unconsciously wrapping around Wang Chen. Time. Seemed to stand still, the noise of the world outside excluded, only their chaotic heartbeats intertwining in resonance. Long Lily felt. Her mind go blank, her body softening. She could only respond instinctively, her lips filled with the scent of the other, that scent. Like sweet poison, making her completely succumb. A few minutes later, Long Lily, flustered, pushed Wang Chen away, her cheeks flushed. Her gaze evasive. I’m feeling a bit confused right now. let me think about it when i get home you don’t need to see me off after saying that long lily turned to leave wang chen hurriedly said you can stay in the three-bedroom apartment downstairs you’re my bank’s private manager it’s better for you to be closer to provide me with 24-hour service all right long lily bit her lip ultimately not refusing after saying that she hurriedly left the tianmu palace wang chen watched long lily’s departing figure his expression calm Long Lily’s heart had already accepted herself, what he just said was merely giving her a way out. Girls are creatures of. Contradiction. The bait had already been cast. What Wangchen needed to do now was to wait a little longer. He had plenty of patience. Not long after, Zhang Rou returned from shopping. Seeing too tall, stern-looking bodyguards standing at the door, she couldn’t. Help but pause, her eyes filled with confusion. The bodyguards, aware of her identity, slightly moved aside to let her pass. Zhang Rou. hesitated for a moment then stepped inside and upon seeing wang chen immediately asked honey why are there two more bodyguards at the door wang chen looked up calmly explaining they were just arranged this afternoon they’ll be stationed here 24 7 to handle any emergencies zhongro nodded slightly still a bit curious but didn’t ask further instead she began to sort through the large bags of shopping spoils wang chen stepped forward watching zhongro’s busy figure and softly said did you enjoy shopping today yeah i bought some things i like but shopping is really tiring Zhang Rou said with a smile, I felt so bored after you left, so I could only go shopping. You didn’t accompany me. Wang Chan’s lips curled into a slight smile as he took out his phone and operated it. A few times in front of Zhang Rou, to make it up to you, I transferred 300,000. Buy whatever you like, don’t worry. About the money, as long as you’re happy, that’s what matters. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 300,000. Double cashback of 600,000. Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning 30 system points. Zhang Rou’s phone went. Ding, and upon seeing the transfer notification, her eyes widened in surprise and joy, honey, you, are spoiling me too much. Wang. Chen gently wrapped his arm around her waist, whispering in her ear, you deserve it. The warm breath brushed against Zhang Rou’s neck, causing her cheeks to flush. That night, the moonlight was like water. Wang Chen and Zhang Rou embraced each other as they slept. For a moment, the room was filled with romance, clouds rolling and rain falling. As the passion faded, Zhang Rou nestled in Wang Chen’s arms, a satisfied smile on her lips falling into a deep sleep. Strands of sunlight, like golden threads, gently pass through. The thin gauze curtains, silently creeping into the bedroom, shining on Wang Chen’s face. Wang Chen, still sleepy, opened his eyes under. The sunlight. He lazily reached for the phone on the bedside table, the screen lit up, revealing that it was already half past 12. A number of messages popped up on Fei Xan, with the address in time for today’s gathering sent by Wang Sitsong two hours ago, Wang Chen. Turned over and got up, casually tidying the messy bed before slipping on his slippers and walking to the bedroom door, where he found. his pants and put them on. He paced back to the bedside and gently nudged Zhang Rou who was still sound asleep. However, she showed. No response, only furrowing her brow slightly and mumbling a few indistinct words in her dreams before turning over and falling back. Into a deep slumber. Wang Chin chuckled softly, the corners of his mouth lifting in a helpless yet affectionate smile, and he. Decided not to disturb her any further. After freshening up in the shower, Wang Chin made his way alone to the nearby popular Shibei Yao. Mian village restaurant for a meal. Shibei Yao Mian Village specializes in Northwestern cuisine, with simple cooking methods that preserve the original flavors and essence of the ingredients. Wang Chan ordered several signature dishes, roasted lamb chops, Mongolian beef, bones, grilled lamb skewers, yellow rice jelly, and Shibei gluten, among others. The tender and juicy roasted lamb chops were fragrant. The firm meat of the Mongolian beef bones was satisfying to Ngaon, enjoying the authentic Northwestern cuisine, Wang Chan savored. Every bite, his mouth watering. After a hearty meal, he thoughtfully packed a portion for Zhang Rou, planning for her to eat it when she woke up. He believed she would like it. The total bill came to 1,688 yuan, at 2.30 in the afternoon, by the Huangpu River. The sunlight spilled over the shimmering surface of the river, casting tiny golden glimmers that danced in harmony with the bustling shore. Boom! Wang Chen drove his red LaFerrari, racing to the private yacht dock. Behind him, Long Fong, along with two other bodyguards, parked their car as well. Just as Wang Chen got out of the car, preparing to call Wang Sikong, a distinctive shout echoed from a distance. Wang Chen, over here. Wang Chen looked up to see a luxurious three-story yacht docked not far away. The yacht was as white as snow, reflecting a luxurious sheen under the sunlight, surrounded by several well-dressed individuals. A group of bodyguards in black suits were scattered around. Wang Sikong quickly approached. Wang Chen, you finally made it. I’ve been waiting for you. Isn’t it still early? It’s only 2.30, Wang Chen glanced at his Vacheron Constantin watch and replied casually. Damn, you’re really punctual. Wang Sitsong’s gaze was immediately drawn to the LaFerrari, his eyes filled with envy. LaFerrari, you got a new car? Just bought it yesterday. Wang Sikong looked at him with admiration. He wanted a LaFerrari too. He playfully punched Wang Chen on the shoulder. Wow. This is solid. You must be something else. He shook his hand and then glanced at Wang Chen’s watch, surprised, Vacheron Constantin’s. Atelier craftsman? You know it? Wang Chen was a bit taken aback. He hadn’t heard that Wang Sikong had an interest in watches. Do you think I’m some bumpkin who hasn’t seen the world? Wang Sikong looked at Wang Chen with a hint of grievance, I have quite a collection of luxury watches, including the Vacheron Constantin Atelier Craftsman series worth 20 million, of course. Looks like you’re also a watch enthusiast. Wang Sikong wasn’t surprised by this. Most rich second generation kids pursued these kinds of things. Beautiful women, luxury cars, and famous watches, it was all quite normal. The poor play with cars, the rich play with watches. The nerds play with computers, the tycoons play with yachts. The value of watches isn’t like cars, which can reach absurd prices. It’s. Alright, I prefer supercars over watches. Of course, I like limited edition watches too, Wang Chen replied nonchalantly. Wang Sikong. Felt a sense of camaraderie with Wang Chen. Excitedly, he threw an arm around Wang Chen’s shoulder and said, Come on, let me introduce. You to some friends, you came at the right time today. Wait until you see what’s in store for you. Wang Sikong teased, winking at. Wang Chen. The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder towards the dock. This is my good brother, Wang Chen. He’s from my hometown. Rong province, Jinchang. Everyone, meet him. Wang Sikong pointed at Wang Chen and introduced him to the crowd, saying, Don’t be fooled. By his youth, his family is no less than mine. The Vanguard Heavy Industry Group is his family’s. Upon hearing this, everyone present. Had their eyes gleaming. Vanguard Heavy Industry Group. Who in Hua Gua doesn’t know it? Its industrial footprint spans numerous fields, making it a true giant in the industry. A few people hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. Wang Sikong smiled as he introduced Wang Chan to each of them. He pointed to a young man dressed in a black short-sleeved shirt, standing 180 centimeters tall but as thin as a monkey, and said, this is Chen Su, from Luzhou. His family is in logistics, and like you, he loves supercars. Hey, buddy. Chen Su was clearly the type to warm up quickly. He had no airs of a rich second generation, wearing a big smile as he took the initiative to greet Wang. Chen. Hello, Wang Chen replied with a smile and a nod. Wow, a Vacheron Constantin Craftsman watch. If I’m not mistaken, that watch is nearly 20 million, right? Chen Su’s gaze was immediately drawn to the watch on Wang Chen’s wrist, raising an eyebrow as he said. I’ve always wanted to buy this watch, but unfortunately, I don’t have enough money. 1800, not even 2000, Wang. Chen added. That’s still damn expensive. Chen Su clicked his tongue, looking enviously at him. No wonder it’s Vanguard Heavy Industry. Crew, the cash flow is just abundant. When I was 20, I wanted to buy a Lamborghini, but my family absolutely refused. It’s. Took a long time of pestering before they finally agreed to buy it for me. Wang Sikong put his arm around Wang Chen’s shoulder and. Teased, what’s a Lamborghini? Last time he drove a McLaren P1, and today he’s in a Ferrari LaFerrari. Chen Su’s face immediately fell. And he said dejectedly, why is there such a big gap between people? I’m going to compete with you rich folks. Just a small. Micro enterprise, not worth mentioning, Wang Chen waved his hand dismissively. Chen Su’s eyes widened in disbelief, by your logic, is a. Cigarette manufacturer also considered a micro enterprise? It is, at that moment, the chubby guy next to them, round and cheerful, chimed in, to be honest, cigarette companies are indeed micro enterprises, it’s just that very few people know it. Damn, Chen Su took. out his phone to search and after reading he couldn’t help but comment it really is the chubby guy then looked at wang chen if i’m not mistaken why our group is also your family’s right just a small business wang chen shook his head repeatedly being overly modest buddy if you keep being this humble it’ll come off as pretentious chen su looked at wang chen with a face full of grievance the crowd burst into laughter at chen su’s antics wang chen laughed along waving his hand stay low key stay low key chen su was clearly a lively character With him around, the atmosphere instantly became lively. This is Li Xiang, from Jin Ling, his family. Is in finance, Wang Sikong introduced the chubby guy he had just mentioned to Wang Chen. The chubby guy wore a friendly smile and extended his hand to Wang Chen, saying, Young Master Wang, nice to meet you. Wang Chen shook his hand in response, Hello. You should know this one. He’s been a constant presence on the internet hot search lists. As Wang Sikong spoke, he pointed to another young man. This young man was slightly thin but exuded a unique charm, standing about 1.7 meters tall, with tattoos and ear studs showcasing his distinct personality. The young man looked over at Wang Chen. Seeing this, Wang Chen smiled and nodded at him, saying, Of course. I know you, after all, you’re so popular online, it’s hard not to know you. The young man smiled slightly, appearing very friendly, and he extended his hand, saying, Hello, I’m Qin Fun. The tattooed young man before them was indeed Qin Fun, known as the Emperor of Magic City. In 2018, he was extremely famous with rumors online about his extravagant spending and relationships with internet celebrities. And that photo of him calmly sitting in a wrecked Porsche 918 in the rain playing on his phone made a lasting impression on countless netizens, instantly making him a sensation online. With his privileged family background and relatively handsome appearance, Sheenfin became a prince charming in the eyes of many girls. However, there were various rumors about his background. Speculations flew. around, claiming that Qin Fen’s father was a shareholder in the Macau David Group. Some even said his father owned a casino in Macau. Along with real estate and financial companies, the Qin family’s annual cash flow reached over 100 billion Huasha coins, and their family assets were substantial. Some even compared him online to Wang Sikong, the son of the richest man, but Wang Chen knew in his heart that most of these were just rumors. Qin Fen’s background wasn’t as mysterious as it seemed. Before his rebirth, someone had already uncovered the truth about Qin Fen’s family background. The previous generation of the Qin family had made their fortune through gambling. Later, relying on their accumulated connections, they gradually built a massive business empire that spanned various industries. Heroes do not ask about their origins. In this era, it’s better to be rich than to be poor. As long as you have money, connections, and resources, that’s the real skill. Hello, Emperor of Shanghai, I am Wang Chen. Wang Chen smiled and shook hands with Qin Fen, not forgetting to tease him a bit. Upon hearing this, Qin Fen quickly waved his hand and said, don’t joke with me, I can’t take that title. It’s all made up by netizens. There are many people in Magic City who are much better than me, I’m just a bit more well off than the average person. Don’t mention it, old Wang, people like Qin Su and Li Xiang are much wealthier than I am, Qin Fen continued. I find it amusing how you rich people are all so low-key, each one trying to outdo the other. Qin Su couldn’t help but interject, first, there’s Wang Chen’s small micro-enterprise, and then comes Qin Fen, who is just a bit better off than the average person. So it’s just, me and Li Xiang who are rich, huh? Can’t you be a little humble? Qin Fen retorted, not in the best of moods. What do you mean by, we rich people? Your family is already wealthier than mine. My family’s little business can’t compare to yours, it’s just hard-earned. Money, Chen Su chuckled in response. You really can talk nonsense, you’re the best at pretending, Qin Fen shot a glance at Chen Su. And then turned to Wang Chen to introduce, his family owns the largest logistics company in Luzhou, with over a thousand large trucks. Then, Wang Sikong introduced Wang Chen to the other three. One was Su Yuza, whose family was in real estate in Magic City, another was Lin Hao, who worked in retail, and the last was Wei Jinglan, who was in foreign trade. Let’s get on the boat first. After that. Introductions, Wang Sikong said to Wang Chen, it’s about time, there will be activities on the boat soon. What activities? Wang Chen. Asked, looking at the yacht docked in front of him. You’ll find out soon, Wang Sikong raised an eyebrow pretending to be mysterious. The auction will be held in the evening, it’s still early to go now. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen felt a surge of anticipation. In Hollywood movies, rich second-generation kids go out to sea, often calling a group of bikini-clad models, drinking champagne, barbecuing, and partying on the boat. He just didn’t know what kind of activities Wang Sikong was referring to. Then it’s up to you to arrange it, Wang Chen said with a smile. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t be interested in going out to sea with you big shots. Looks. Like we are kindred spirits, let’s have a good discussion once we get on the boat. Xinfeng’s tone became noticeably friendlier. In his. Previous life, it was said online that his romantic life was extremely chaotic, having dated numerous internet celebrities. Now it’s seen. That the rumors were indeed not unfounded. Wang Chan, saying that hurts a brother’s feelings, Wang Sikong said with a look of feigned. Sorrow. Women are just embellishments, having fun with brothers is what truly brings joy. Damn, old Wang, can you act normal for. Once. Xinfen looked at Wang Sikong with disdain, then turned to Wang Chen and said, Wang Chen, you better watch out for old Wang. You’re so handsome and young, who knows, he might have a thing for you. Exactly, if this gets online, you’ll be a laughingstock all. Over the internet, Chen Su chimed in from the side. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen quickly took a few steps back, looking warily at Wang. Sikong and said, old Wang, what’s wrong with you? Even though we’re both from Jincheng, I’m straight. Wang Sikong felt utterly frustrated. As if a lump was stuck in his chest, unable to go up or down. After a long while, he finally shouted helplessly, for heavens, sake, in broad daylight, you three actually dare to tarnish someone’s reputation. The group continued to joke and playfully bicker as they made their way to the yacht. Lung Fong and his companions, along with Wang Sitsong’s bodyguards closely followed behind them, not leaving their side for a moment. Upon boarding the yacht, the teak floor beneath their feet gleamed, reflecting everyone’s figures. Interior of the yacht was even more luxurious, with dazzling crystal chandeliers, soft leather sofas, and artistic paintings adorning the walls. Wang Chin stood on the deck of the yacht, quietly gazing at the scenery along both banks of the Huangpu River. The daytime view was somewhat different from the night. It was noisier and lacked the opulent luxury of the night. As the yacht slowly set off, the deep rumble of the engine echoed throughout the dock. The riverside breeze blew towards them, bringing the refreshing scent of the sea, alleviating some of the summer heat. The yacht soon reached the center of the river, then began to turn its bow towards the east, China Sea. It wasn’t until no other boats were in sight that the yacht gradually picked up speed. The waves rhythmically crashed against the yacht, creating layers of white foam. The sunlight poured down without reservation, penetrating the water and revealing the sandy, bottom, swaying seaweed, and colorful fish darting about. A flock of seagulls circled overhead, their white wings shimmering in the sunlight. They spread their wings and glided gracefully, occasionally flapping their wings briefly, emitting crisp calls. Some seagulls, playfully skimmed close to the water’s surface, their sharp beaks occasionally tapping the sea, splashing up sparkling droplets. Then they, soared high into the sky, merging into the vast blue above. For Wang Chen, who came from the mountains, this was truly breathtaking. The endless sea stretched to the horizon, contrasting sharply with the limited view surrounded by mountains. It is often said that, only high mountains in the sea can broaden a man’s horizons. The more one sees, the wider one’s perspective becomes, and naturally, one’s mindset expands. This saying holds true. When does the auction start? Wang Chen asked Wang Sikong while standing on the yacht’s deck. It doesn’t start until 9 o’clock tonight so don’t rush, Wang Sikong replied with a slight smirk giving Chinsu a knowing glance. Chinsu nodded, chuckling mischievously, then stood up from the lounge chair and walked to the deck stairs. He leaned over and called down into the cabin. Immediately, the sound of high heels clicking echoed from inside. Following that, a group of over 10 girls, all with looks and figures above 80 points, emerged in bikinis. One by one, they walked in front of Wang Chen and the others, turning around for a moment. Then, with smiles on their faces, they lined up on the deck in front of them. In an instant, the surrounding sea breeze seemed to carry the fragrance of the girls. Each of them had an incredibly hot figure. Their slender waists could be grasped. With a single hand, seemingly delicate yet skillfully outlining seductive curves. Following the flat abdomen, it gracefully tapered. Down to perfectly rounded hips, which, wrapped in bikinis, appeared even more firm and enticing, the fair skin glistened delicately under. The sunlight. They stood side by side, exuding an irresistible charm, whether alluring or pure. You prepared this too? Su Yuzes said. To Wang Sikong, somewhat surprised. He hadn’t expected such a captivating scene before him. Of course, Wang Sikong replied proudly. Smiling, fortunately, I arranged the event in advance, otherwise, after getting off the boat, who knows what you guys would have said. About me. If this gets out, how am I supposed to get by in the future? How’s my arrangement? Enough to shut you all up, right? If I. hear any rumors later, you guys are going to regret it. Xin Fen lay lazily on a chair, stroking his chin, and said to Wang Chen beside him, these few people seem a bit insufficient. I think so too, there’s not enough for us to share. If the foreigners next door see this, they’ll think we can’t afford it. Wang Chen nodded in agreement. Exactly, the people coming tonight are the richest in all. Of Asia. Old Wang, you’re being a bit stingy. Chen Su said with a mischievous smile, since old Wang is so insincere, don’t blame us. For being rude. Let’s spread it all over the internet that old Wang is gay, so those girls stay away from him. At this moment, the chubby guy quietly said, what if this just happens to fulfill old Wang’s wishes? The scene suddenly fell silent. After a moment, the entire place erupted in laughter. You, you guys are all my good buddies, don’t do this to me. Wang Sitsong’s composure crumbled, and he said with a face full of indignation, chubby, we’ve known each other for so many years, how can you do this to me? Wang Chen just arrived, and you guys are already colluding with him? No way, no way. The chubby guy shook his head and said, we’re brothers, dear friends. So you want more money, huh? Shen Su chimed in. Then the few of them exchanged glances and burst into laughter. At Wang Sikong. Alright, enough already. Xinfeng said seriously, if we keep this up, old Wang might have to prove something to us. Right here. I don’t want to be a target. Wang Sikong shot a glare at Xinfeng and said to Wang Chen, Wang Chen, you pick two first. They’ll accompany you later. As top tier second generation heirs, they were already accustomed to scenes like this. There was no rush. Wang Chen didn’t hesitate and began to assess the row of girls in front of him. He casually selected two. One was tall and had a pure appearance. With long, straight legs. The other had a curvy figure, especially her prominent chest, which was quite eye-catching. Just these. Two. When the two girls saw Wang Chen point at them, their eyes immediately lit up. They smiled and, without needing to be told, approached. Wang Chen on their own. The other girls on the deck looked on with some envy. They knew the identities of the people before them. These were all top young masters of Hua Gua. If they served well, money was guaranteed. And among them, Wang Chen stood out. With his. Handsome face and 188cm tall stature, no girl would refuse him. Being able to accompany such a handsome and wealthy second generation. Air was certainly much better than accompanying anyone else. You have good taste. Wang Sikong praised as he looked at the girl’s wang. Chen had chosen. He was quite satisfied with these two, not expecting Wang Chen to pick them first. But he didn’t mind, it only proved. that their tastes were aligned. Wang Sikong immediately introduced the girls, this is Wang Chen, you can call him young master you. He’s my brother. Serve him well, and you won’t miss out on the benefits. Ah am ha am. The two girls nodded obediently, swaying their alluring hips as they walked to Wang Chen’s side, eagerly taking his arm.A girl with a pure expression said, you can just call me. Lei Lei, Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu, I’m called Tang Tang, the girl from Delay said in a delicate voice. Wang Chen smiled and pulled both of them into his embrace. Lele looked a bit shy but offered no resistance, obediently allowing Wang Chen to hold her, appearing delicate and dependent. Tang Tang, however, cooperatively shrank closer, with the two girls pressing tightly against Wang Chen. They were all willing to be on the yacht fully aware of what they should do. Once Wang Chen finished choosing, Wang Sitsong and Qin Fen also began to select their favorite girls followed by Chen Su and Li Xiang. Although they were chatting and joking around happily, this detail revealed the disparity in their social standings. It was Wang Chan’s first time joining their circle, so his selection was a given. Wang. Si Tsong and Xinfeng held the highest positions in this circle, acting as the leaders. In society, the hierarchy among people is strict. Among the rich second generation, the class distinctions are even more pronounced. Otherwise, how could it be reflected in these minute details? Come on, let’s go relax for a bit. Xinfeng called to Wang Chan, casually wrapping an arm around a blonde, blue-eyed bikini. Beauty. Wang Chan followed suit and walked to the front of the yacht’s deck. Here was a small swimming pool, with plenty of water guns, and fishing rods nearby. In this hot summer, being out at sea naturally meant playing in the water. Xin Fun and the others picked up water guns and filled them with water. Then they exchanged glances and mischievously aimed at the girls. Instantly, the scant fabric on the girls got soaked, revealing hints of skin. Oh no! Xin Xiao, you’re so bad! Stop it, Chen Xiao! The girls giggled, occasionally turning to dodge. The yacht was suddenly filled with a lively atmosphere, a sight to behold. Seeing this scene, Wang Chen also began to entertain the idea of buying a yacht. He could invite a few close friends and head out to sea. Blue skies, white clouds, the ocean, beautiful women, champagne, barbecues, hosting a grand party would definitely be a great enjoyment in life. Xiao Yu, why don’t you join in the fun? Tang Tang asked curiously, looking at Wang Chen, who was standing aside. What, do you want to join in? Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and asked. Lele glanced at the girl by the pool who was smiling sweetly but looked somewhat flustered, and shook. Her head repeatedly, saying, I’ll just stay by your side, wherever you go, I go. Tang Tang’s eyes sparkled as she echoed, whatever. Xiaoyu says goes, I’ll stay by your side. Wang Chen nodded, smiled, and said nothing. The sea breeze carried the unique scent of the ocean, intensifying the intoxicating atmosphere. At this moment, the bodyguards were scattered around, their expressions stern, always alert to any unusual occurrences. This formed a stark contrast to the lavish, laughter-filled scene at the center of the deck. Wang. Sitsong sank into the soft sofa, snapping his fingers at a nearby waiter. The waiter understood immediately and promptly presented a carefully crafted cocktail. Wang Sitsong picked up the cocktail, swirled it, and called out to Wang Chen, who was not far away, Wang. Chen, are you getting used to it on my boat? Is my arrangement satisfactory? With the principal’s generosity, of course, it’s lavish. This setup is quite comfortable, Wang Chen replied, slightly turning his body with a smile. Wang Sitsong laughed heartily, stood up, and grabbed a bottle of champagne. Of course, when you come out to play, you have to enjoy it. Saying this, he suddenly popped the cork and sprayed it towards the crowd. Ah, how annoying. Hee hee, do it again. The champagne foam splattered in the air, mingling with the girls’ exclamations and laughter. Instantly, the lively atmosphere reached a new climax. Wang Sitsong shouted while spraying. Everyone, get hyped up. The DJ, who had long been prepared, started spinning records and the lively music immediately filled the venue. The club isn’t the best place to find a lover. So the bar is where I go. Me and my friends at the table doing. This part. Of the scene is really hard to write. Please imagine the plot from movies like The Wolf of Wall Street and immerse yourself in it. Wang Chen looked at the bustling scene, a glimmer of interest flashing in his eyes. The smile at the corner of his mouth grew whiter as. He casually picked up a bottle of champagne from the ice bucket nearby. Lele and Tang Tang, who were beside him, were momentarily taken. A back. Then, their eyes filled with anticipation and excitement. Wang Chin walked towards Wang Sikong, raising his hand to pop the champagne cork and with a bang, the cork flew out. The champagne sprayed all over Wang Sikong, drawing the attention of those around. Them. The two exchanged a glance and burst into laughter, then simultaneously raised the champagne, spraying it wildly into the air. The sparkling champagne fell like fine rain, drenching the cheering crowd. Wang Chen swayed gently to the rhythm of the music his usually indifferent expression now filled with wild abandon and joy. 25 minutes later, when Wang Sikong and Qin Fen were somewhat exhausted from the fun, they finally chose to end the revelry. Then, they wrapped their arms around their respective partners and headed towards the cabin rooms. Wang Sikong approached Wang Chen and casually said, I’m heading to the room first. There are plenty of empty rooms here, if you go in later and see that one room is empty, just go right in. You know what I mean. I’m off. After Chen Su, Qin, Feng and the others exchanged knowing glances with Wang Chen, they gradually entered the rooms. Soon, only Wang Chen, Lele, and Tang Tang remained on the deck, along with the bodyguards scattered around. Wang Chen walked to the bow of the ship, took in the scenery for a while, and felt the sea breeze. Then he found it rather uninteresting. He turned to Lele and Tang Tang and said, Shall we go in too? Lele blushed slightly and softly replied, Mim, you shall, I can’t wait any longer, let’s go. Tang Tang stepped forward, linking her arm. with Wang Chen’s deliberately using a teasing and somewhat flirtatious tone. While speaking, she didn’t forget to wink at Lele, her eyes full of mischief. Her carefree demeanor seemed to downplay the significance of what was about to happen, yet there was a subtle hint of anticipation in her gaze. She tugged Wang Chen towards the cabin, her high heels clicking crisply against the deck, her figure, swaying, exuding charm. Two hours later, when Wang Chen emerged from the room, he found Qin Fen and Wang Sikong already chatting, in the living room. A group of girls occasionally lifted their glasses to feed them drinks. As soon as they saw Wang Chen come out, all eyes instantly turned to him. Wang Chen, you little rascal, you weren’t sleeping in there, were you? Wang Sikong said teasingly, you’re still young, you shouldn’t be like this. We’re all men here, just act naturally, no need to force it. Yeah, Wang Chen, we’re all buddies, so stop pretending. Shenzhou’s face was full of smiles as he looked at Wang Chen. Xinfen joked, it’s fine to fool your brothers, just don’t fool yourself. We all know what’s going on, we just don’t want to expose you, so stop pretending. What nonsense. Seeing this, Wang Chen replied calmly, I’m just going to the restroom. Wait, I’ll go too. Chen Su immediately stood up and walked into the bathroom with Wang Chen. As a luxury yacht, the facilities in the restroom were also extremely lavish, featuring top of the line home amenities. The decoration looked no different from that of a five-star hotel, except that the space was limited and not as spacious as a hotel. There were only two urinals. Wang Chen and Chen Su could only stand side by side there. Just as Chen Su was about to relieve himself, he inadvertently glanced over at Wang Chen. His eyes instantly widened in shock. Chen Su exclaimed, what the hell, how? Can you be like this? Are you even human? Calm down, Wang Chen said nonchalantly as he pulled up his pants. Chen Su held his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache as he returned to the living room with Wang Chen. His gaze was filled with indignation. Why should it be like this? This kid Wang Chen, young, handsome, and from a good family, that would be enough. But why is his, so impressive too? Wang Chen must be the illegitimate child of the heavens, otherwise, how could all the beauty of the world be bestowed upon him? Why did you take so long? Just as Chen Su and Wang Chen sat down, Xin Feng curiously asked, what about your two female companions? Why haven’t they come out? His companions probably need to rest for a while longer, this guy is too much to handle. Chen Su’s voice drifted in. From the side. Hmm. The gazes of Wang Sitsong and the others instantly fell on Wang Chen. The girls around were secretly sizing. Up Wang Chen, their faces filled with curiosity and envy. Lele and Tang Tang were so lucky. Damn, you’re really hiding your talents. Why? Do all the good things happen to you? Wang Sitsong said with a laugh. Wang Chen remained indifferent, merely smiling slightly without saying anything. Continuing would be impolite. Isn’t it about time? Wang Sitsong slightly raised his wrist, glancing at his patek. Philippe then looked up at Qin Fen and asked. Whom? Qin Fen nodded slightly, but a hint of frustration was hard to conceal in his. expression as he softly replied, it should be about time. Let’s go up together, Wang Sitsong said as he turned around first, striding towards the upper deck of the yacht. Seeing this, Jinfen took a deep breath and followed closely behind. Once everyone boarded the yacht’s deck, the night had already descended like a massive piece of dark satin, surging from the horizon and completely enveloping the entire Miyako Strait. At this moment, this area of the sea, which should have been very quiet, was bustling with activity, resembling a city that never sleeps on the sea. On the ocean, scattered lights intertwined like stars. Wang Chen looked closely and realized that. Those were the lights emitted by the boats anchored here. These boats varied in shape but all showcased luxury, as far as the eye could. See, they were all lavish yachts. Unable to help himself, Wang Chen asked, what are these? Just like us, they are all wealthy young. Masters are social elites, Wang Sitzong said with a hint of inexplicable emotion in his eyes, letting out a soft sigh, in all of. Asia, or even the world, most of the qualified wealthy people have come. What about the people from the Christie’s auction? Wang C. Song pointed towards the depths of the Miyako Strait and said, look over there. Following the direction of his finger, Wang Chen gazed far into the distance. In an instant he couldn’t help but gasp. He saw a giant luxury cruise ship that seemed to have sailed out. Of a dream, majestically standing on the distant sea. Its massive body, against the backdrop of the night in the sea, resembled a floating city, quietly exuding a shocking aura of majesty, like a giant kuen lying on the surface of the sea. The entire ship was surrounded by soft and bright lights, outlining every detail of its structure. The whole cruise ship sparkled in the darkness, like a brilliant pearl rising from the deep sea. Weinstein leaned forward, raised his hand to point at the giant ship, and said, this is the largest and most luxurious cruise ship in the world, the Ocean Symphony. This giant ship was built by the world’s top shipyard, measuring a full 362 meters in length, 66 meters in width, with a total height of 108 meters. and a total tonnage of 228 ,081 tons. It is said that it can accommodate 8,880 passengers, with 4,200 professional attendants providing meticulous service to them. Such a scale is undoubtedly a giant on the sea. Wang Chen listened in shock, unable to help but exclaim. The facilities inside this giant ship are simply extraordinary. Wang Sikong paused, a hint of envy barely concealed in his eyes, and continued this ship has a total of 18 decks from the entertainment and leisure area on the bottom floor to the observation suites on the top floor each level has a different theme dozens of unique and diverse restaurants escape rooms a royal theater and it even has the highest water slide at sea ultimate abyss and a water park called perfect storm two decks for surfing a mini golf course a nine-story high cable car a seaside swimming pool and more it has everything wang chen listened dumbfounded his mouth slightly agape, and after a long time, he finally came to his senses and said, isn’t this just moving a whole city onto a ship? It’s simply unbelievable. How much did it cost to build this? Once he regained his composure, Wang Chen curiously asked. Xi’infen had been gazing at the Symphony of the Seas in the distance, and at this moment, he spoke softly, according to public information, the cost of the Symphony of the Seas is about 1.8 billion dollars. 1 .8 billion dollars. Converted to Chinese currency, that’s a staggering 12.2 billion. over a hundred billion Chinese yuan, just to build such a ship. That’s too luxurious. Wang Chen’s eyes were filled with amazement as he said, it’s simply a palace on the sea, extravagance beyond imagination. Wang Sikong smiled and reached out, giving Wang Chen shoulder a hearty pat, his eyes sparkling with excitement, of course, Christie’s auction house has really gone all out for this. Auction, bringing out their most treasured items. Tonight will definitely show you what a real grand scene looks like. As the yacht slowly approached, the surroundings became increasingly lively. The Symphony of the Seas gradually lowered its boarding deck. Those who had arrived earlier and docked nearby couldn’t wait to step aboard. Each one was dressed impeccably, either rich or noble. With every gesture, the glint of gold and silver jewelry sparkled, surrounded by a dazzling halo built from wealth. The yacht where Wang Chan and the others were also moved orderly towards the boarding deck. They were about to dock. Bang! Suddenly, a yacht came crashing in, rudely bumping their yacht aside. The yacht shook violently. Qin Fen stumbled, nearly falling, his face instantly filled with anger. Wang. Sitsong’s eyes widened, and a surge of rage shot up from his heart. What the hell? Who is this? TMD, can’t they drive a boat? Qin. Fen shouted angrily. Wang Sikong also cursed loudly, are they blind, rushing around like this, trying to reincarnate? Damn, that. Idiot. The chubby guy rubbed his waist and cursed. Just as the words left his mouth, a person leisurely walked out from the opposite. Yacht. This person was short, with shifty eyes, looking around with a lewd expression. Dressed in loose, flashy casual clothes, he appeared. Nonchalant. He even held a cigar in his hand, the swirling smoke adding to his annoying arrogance. Asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk. He shouted something. In Japanese, and although the specific content was unintelligible, the tone was full of provocation. Wang Sikong asked in confusion. What did he say? A nearby attendant quickly stepped in and whispered a translation, he said, they should go first, and you Chinese. People should line up at the back. This little Japanese brat must be deliberately looking for trouble, he doesn’t come in peace. Wang. Sitsong’s forehead bulged with veins, his face filled with anger. Damn, that idiot, let’s see what tricks he can pull. Wang Chen also. Wore a face of anger, snorting coldly Wang Sikong stepped forward, pointing at the little man and shouted angrily in Chinese, you little. Dwarf raised by a dog, what nonsense are you talking about? This sea isn’t a place for you to act wild, hurry up and apologize, and, get out of my way. His face was filled with rage, as if he was about to charge at the other person. The Japanese man, however, seemed to be oblivious, a mocking smile curling at the corners of his mouth as he took another puff of his cigar and blew out a smoke ring. Then, in a slow and deliberate manner, he replied in broken Chinese, Baka, what can you do? This is the sea of our great Yamato empire. You outsiders better behave if you want to benefit. Wangchen laughed in anger, a chilling glare in his eyes as he said loudly, you, must still be dreaming, when did the Miyako Strait become yours? Open your dog eyes and take a look, idiot. Wangchen felt his blood boil, his hands itching to take the little man’s head and kick it like a ball. In an instant, the atmosphere became tense on the sea. The bodyguards on the deck stood alert, watching the Japanese man warily. The two sides faced off, and even the sea breeze seemed to sense. The tension, howling more fiercely. The Miyako Strait, also known as the Miyako Waterway, is located between Miyako Island. and Kume Island in the Ryukyu Islands, and is an international waterway where ships and aircraft have the freedom to navigate and fly. Ovor. It is an important passage for vessels and aircraft from Vichyne fan frowned and began to explain, what you don’t know is that, this Christie’s auction house is not simple. I’ve heard that it has the backing of the French royal family, and this Ocean Symphony, is said to belong to a certain prince. Because the guests attending the auction are either rich or noble, he continued, to ensure. Safety, the Navy maintains order on the Ocean Symphony, and there is also a fleet of the French Royal Navy stationed in the adjacent international waters. Wang Sikong raised his hand and pointed to the surrounding sea, adding, the geopolitical situation in the Miyako. Strait is quite sensitive, it has always been a focal point of attention from all sides. Our Hoagwa has also dispatched a fleet to patrol the surrounding waters to maintain security. Japan and Korea each have their own little schemes. However, precisely because. Of this, the Christie’s auction is still able to ensure a certain level of safety, after all, there are so many eyes watching. I just didn’t expect to run into such people right when we arrived, it’s really bad luck. After listening to Qin Fun and Wang Sitsong’s explanations, Wang Chen gained a deeper understanding of the complex situation. He nodded slightly and said, we need to be extra cautious. Today and look for opportunities to assert ourselves. Exactly, we can’t let him bully us. Wang Sikong said with a face full of. Indignation, we need to keep a close eye on him on the ship. If he dares to pull any tricks again, we’ll make sure he regrets it. As they spoke, the group continued to move towards the boarding deck of the Ocean Symphony amidst the crowd. The bodyguards and female companions were left on the yacht. The Ocean Symphony was not a place they could access. Wang Sikong and the others had a more cautious look in their eyes, alert to the various situations that might arise next. After all, there were troublemakers like Koizumi Shota on board. In such a complex and sensitive environment, no one knew what else they might encounter. After undergoing strict checks, they boarded the Ocean Symphony one after another. As soon as they stepped in, it felt as if they had entered a luxurious palace on the sea. The floor beneath their feet was made of gleaming Italian imported marble. Above them, a Swarovski crystal chandelier cascaded down like falling stars, illuminating the entire entrance hall as bright as day, dazzling enough to make one squint. Not far away, a reception. Desk carved from a single piece of jade emitted a warm blow. Fresh flowers, air lifted in, were arranged on the desk, blooming vibrantly. Elegant classical music softly echoed in their ears, with violins and pianos intertwining to create a captivating melody. The waiters, dressed in tailcoats, stood tall, holding champagne and exquisite snacks, smiling as they moved through the crowd. Navy guards patrolled. Everywhere, watching the scene vigilantly. Wealthy individuals from across Asia gathered in small groups, savoring fine wines. Some discussed the latest business investments, eliciting gasps of admiration from others. Others spoke about the latest international situations, engaging in lively discussions. The ladies wore glamorous evening gowns, their jewelry sparkling under the lights. They laughed and chatted, exuding elegance in every gesture. In fact, most people came here to meet friends and connect with the powerful, while Wang Chen and his companions were among the few who came solely for the auction. It seems there are quite a few people from other countries, Wang Chen remarked, listening to the various languages around him. Wang Sikong and the others were gazing around the incredibly. luxurious ocean symphony, their eyes filled with curiosity and admiration. Suddenly, Jinfen’s eyes lit up and he raised his hand excitedly, shouting, Hey, Xiangzhuo, over here, what a coincidence. The others turned to look. They saw a tall, muscular young man striding over. However, his outfit was somewhat exaggerated.He wore a flashy sequin suit on top paired with ripped jeans on the bottom and sported a pair of sparkling sneakers. His entire outfit was peculiar yet eye -catching. His hair was deliberately tousled as if it had just been blown by a typhoon and he wore his signature smile on his face. He grinned and responded, hey, isn’t that old Qin? An old one? Long time no see. I didn’t expect to run into you guys. Wang Sikong, beaming with joy, quickly walked over and gave Xiang Zhao a bear hug, patting his back vigorously. The sound was like beating a drum. Then he turned to face Wang Chan and the others. Introducing, come on, let me introduce you all. This is Xiang Zhao, a well-known figure in Hong Kong Island. He’s thriving in the film. industry and stirring up the business world, the key is, this guy is really funny. Wang Sikong then looked at Xiang Zhao and said, this is Wang Chen, my brother who is as solid as they come, the pioneer heavy industry group in Rouen province is his family’s. Upon hearing this, Xiang Zhao’s eyes instantly widened and his mouth subconsciously fell open slightly. His face was filled with shock. Countless pieces of information about the pioneer heavy industry group flashed through his mind. It was simply a colossal entity that was the pioneer heavy industry group. It was something that even the most glorious times of the Xiang family couldn’t compare to. I’ve long admired your name, it has been like thunder in my ears. Meeting you today is truly special, Wang Chen quickly stepped forward, extending his hand with a beaming smile. Xiang Zhao had skyrocketed to fame in 2024 with his absurd comedic talent, gaining the affection of most on Douyin. However, he hadn’t expected that in 2018, Xiang Zhao already had this look. To be honest, you really can’t say. This outfit is something that ordinary people can’t pull off. Hello, I’m Xiang Zhao. Xiang Zhao snapped back to reality and enthusiastically extended both hands. He firmly grasped Wang Chen’s hand and deliberately shook it vigorously. Whether I’m famous or not. It’s all thanks to my friend’s kindness. Just messing around, he said with a smirk, a hint of nonchalance in his tone. Don’t bother. With all that superficial stuff, since we’ve met, we’re friends, so let’s just have fun. Did you just arrive? Wang Sikong pouted, looking. Annoyed as he said, you bet. We just got here and ran into a short, squat Japanese guy named Koizumi Shota. That guy was incredibly arrogant, looking for trouble right away. If it weren’t for the Royal Navy arriving promptly, he would have ended up as a corpse in the open sea today. Koizumi Shota? Xiang Zhao frowned, angrily saying, that name sounds like a pile of crap. He must be relying on a bit of family money to act all high and mighty here. Exactly, isn’t he just a big pile of dung? Wang Chin stifled a laugh, his mouth twitching slightly and chimed in, by the way, Xiang Zhao, did you come here for the auction? Of course. I heard there are quite. A few national treasures from our huagwa that have been lost abroad at this auction. Xiang Zhao nodded earnestly, like a chick pecking. At rice. I’m hoping to see if I can get a few. At least it counts as doing my part for the country. Upon hearing this, Wang Sitsong’s brows furrowed instantly. The anger on his face faded, and he sighed heavily, saying, sigh, just thinking about this makes me feel uneasy. Back in the day, our country suffered a century of humiliation, with foreign powers invading, burning, killing, and plundering. How many precious cultural relics were just taken away like that? Although our motherland is growing stronger now, these treasures that have drifted abroad have been unable to return home. Just thinking about it makes me furious. Wang Chen also sighed, his eyes filled with melancholy. He spoke with a hint of indignation. Yeah, every time I see those Hua Hua cultural relics displayed in foreign museums, it’s just unbearable. These are all treasures left by our ancestors, just displayed in a foreign land for others to admire. And some even bought and sold casually. It’s truly a great humiliation. Xiangzhu clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white. From the pressure, his teeth grinding together. Gritting his teeth, he said, our forebears shed blood and sacrificed their lives. To achieve the prosperity we have today, I cannot just stand by and watch these national treasures continue to drift abroad. Although, I may not be able to change this situation by myself, saving even one piece is better than nothing. I came here this time to do my part, and if I can manage to bid on a few items, it will be worth it. Wang Chen also raised his head, determination flashing in his. Eyes as he said, count me in, regardless of whether we succeed in bidding, at least we tried. How could I miss out on something like this? If we work together, we might actually bring these national treasures back home, Wang Sikong said, patting Xiangzhuo on the shoulder. With our family background, it shouldn’t be a problem to win the bids. Xi ‘in Fen added. Wang Chen silently vowed to do something. For these national treasures that had fallen into foreign hands. With the system in hand, his wealth would only grow. He aimed to bid on. all the national treasures possible, bringing back those that had wandered abroad for over a hundred years into the embrace of their homeland. For a moment, the atmosphere grew quiet. Xiangzhu reached for a glass of champagne on the table, tilted his neck back, and drank. It all in one go, then casually wiped his mouth. His face returned to its usual nonchalant demeanor as he grinned and said, alright? Let’s not dwell on these worries for now. Since we’re here, let’s see how the auction goes first. At this point, a fierce glint. Appeared in his eyes as he said menacingly, however, if that little Koyama Shota dares to cause trouble again, I’ll make sure he goes. Back lying down. I’ve trained for this, and I won’t hold back. Eh duh. After saying this, Xiangzhu playfully waved his fists around. Ha ha ha. Wang Sikong and Wang Chen exchanged glances, both amused by Xiangzhu’s antics. In an instant, the earlier tense atmosphere. Dissipated. In the evening, after Wang Chen and the others had dinner at the restaurant, Xiangzhu, Wang Chen, and Wang Sikong, led by. Their attendants entered the auction venue. Upon entering the hall, everyone was struck by its grandeur and luxury. The venue, which could accommodate 1,800 people, was filled to capacity with multiple tiers of seating. The lights were dazzling and a massive crystal chandelier cast brilliant light, illuminating rows of neatly arranged seats, as well as the magnificent stage at the front, designated for displaying auction items. Thousands of people gathered here, mostly top tycoons from Asia, dressed in extravagant. attire and adorned with various precious jewelry, exuding an air of wealth in every gesture. Among them were a few white billionaires and Middle Eastern tycoons wearing headscarves. If a terrorist were to attack here, it could set the global economy back decades, plunging it into a recession even worse than that of 2008. Xiangzhuang and the others, guided by their attendants, took their seats in the front row. Wangchen casually looked up and spotted Koyama Shota in the distance. He saw Koyama Shota making various provocative gestures towards them with an arrogant expression. Although he was too far away to hear what he was saying, the ugly sneer on his face in his brazen actions made it clear he wasn’t saying anything good. That little winter melon dares to provoke us, he really doesn’t know when. To quit, Xiangzhu frowned, a glint of ferocity flashing in his eyes as he muttered. Don’t be fooled by Xiangzhu’s usual carefree demeanor. The Xiang family is not to be trifled with, they were involved in both the underworld and legitimate business when they first made their fortune. His grandfather established the Yian Chamber of Commerce before the founding of the nation to protect Chinese. laborers, and at its peak, the association had nearly a hundred thousand members. Later, in Hong Kong, they were even honored with the title of Emperor of Kowloon. In these years, under the leadership of Xiangzhu’s father, the Xiang family has gradually moved towards a more formalized operation. Xiangzhu himself is particularly passionate about filmmaking and charity events. However, this does not mean that just anyone is qualified to provoke the Xiang family. In certain specific fields and among the older generation’s circles, the Xiang family’s past influence still holds some remnants. This guy, I was just about to beat him up and now he comes to provoke us again. Does he really think we’re easy to bully? Wang Sikong said with a face full of anger. Wang Cheng coldly stared at Koizumi Shota and said in a deep voice, ignore him, we’re here for the auction, don’t let him ruin our mood. However, Koizumi Shota, seeing that the few of them did not respond, became even more brazen. He swaggered over to them, followed by a few lackeys, looking arrogant. Baka. Aren’t those the Chinese guys from earlier? why don’t they come over to greet me koizumi shoda said sarcastically his face full of smudness siangzua was instantly furious standing up abruptly and glaring at koizumi shoda saying you ignorant little dwarf i don’t have time to deal with you and you’re still coming at me if you have the guts hit me koizumi shoda however showed no fear and instead laughed heartily what’s wrong not convinced back in the day our great yamato empire beat you to a pulp and now you can only pretend here you siangzua trembled with rage His tightly clenched fists crackled, wishing he could rush up and teach this. Ignorant guy a lesson. Jensu directly cursed, fuck you, whose dog is barking nonsense here, you idiot. The commotion drew the attention. Of many, who cast curious glances. The navy maintaining order on sight also noticed the chaos and looked over. Wang Sikong held Xiang. Su’s hand down, pointing at Koizumi Shoda and cursing, um, you dare to provoke us again, do you really think we won’t dare to? Hit you? Wang Chen also slowly stood up, a hint of coldness in his eyes, and said coldly, Koizumi Shota, is your mouth just for spewing? Nonsense? How about this, let’s make a bet, Koizumi Shota said curiously. What bet? Tell me. I bet you won’t win a single auction. Item tonight. Wang Chen extended a finger, provocatively saying, Nanny. Upon hearing this, Koizumi Shota’s smile instantly vanished. Replaced by a fierce expression, Baka, do you know what the Koizumi family does? My Koizumi family has been in the arms business. For over a hundred years, the wealth we’ve accumulated is beyond your imagination. Just wait for today’s auction, all those treasures from Hua Gua will eventually fall into my hands and none of you can snatch them away. Dream on, Xiangzhu shouted angrily, those. National treasures belong to our Hua Gua and we will never let you succeed. Wang Chen merely said lightly, then let’s wait and see. At that moment, a squad of naval guards armed with firearms approached. Seeing the situation turning unfavorable, Koizumi Shota snorted coldly and returned to his position with his lackeys. Don’t be angry, don’t be angry, it’s not worth it to deal with people like him, Wang Chin patted Xiangzhu’s shoulder, comforting him. Xiangzhu took a deep breath, trying to calm his emotions, and said, I’m fine, it’s just that when I hear him say those things, I can’t help but want to hit him. That’s right, it’s really hard to swallow. But let’s hold on for now, when the auction starts, we’ll have a good contest with him, Wang Sikong nodded in agreement. The few of them sat back down, their eyes revealing a determined look. Wang Sikong, Xinfin, and Xiangzhu all took out their phones, starting to raise funds in preparation for the upcoming auction. This is no longer a simple matter of a few people competing with each other. It has escalated into a contest over the ownership of national treasures, a struggle for the dignity of the country and the nation. Whoever loses will truly find it impossible to hold their head high for the rest of their life, unable to face their fellow villagers. At 9 o’clock in the evening, the Christie’s auction commenced on time. The entire venue was solemn and dignified beneath the vast dome. Thousands of crystal chandeliers emitted a soft yet bright glow, illuminating the scene as if it were daytime. However, due to the predominantly dark-colored decorations surrounding it, a mysterious and slightly oppressive black atmosphere was created. Everyone’s gaze was fixed on the stage. A middle-aged auctioneer, dressed in a sharp suit, walked steadily onto the stage. His hair was meticulously combed and his shoes shone brightly, exuding professionalism in every gesture. He first bowed slightly, paying respect to the guests. Below. Then, clearing his throat, he spoke in a steady and powerful voice, esteemed guests, welcome to this extraordinary auction. I am Lin Yicheng, a senior auctioneer at Christie’s, and it is a great honor to host this auction for you. Today, we gather here to witness a grand feast of rare treasures. Each of these auction items carries a rich history, transcending time and space to meet you here. Before we begin the auction, I would like to briefly introduce the rules of this auction. We will use Huashia coins as the currency for tonight, with a minimum increment of 1 million for each bid. When I ask three times and there are no further bids, the item will be sold to the highest bidder and all transactions will be settled after the auction concludes. At the same time, I hope all bidders can maintain order during the auction, bid rationally, and respect every offer. This auction is guaranteed by Christie’s and the Royal French, ensuring authenticity and security so you can bid with confidence. Above the stage, a panoramic display screen provided real-time translations in different languages. At this moment, a team of Royal Navy Guards, standing tall, emerged from behind the stage. Armed End With stern expressions, they surrounded the stage closely, ensuring that the auction proceeded without a hitch. Without further ado, let us present the first auction item. As the auctioneer’s voice fell, several young women dressed in elegant kippeos gracefully stepped forward, steadily carrying the first auction item on a tray, slowly making their way to the stage. The item was carefully covered with red silk, further piquing everyone’s curiosity. Xiangzhuo, Wang Chan, and Wang Sitzong sat in the front row, their eyes fixed tightly on the first auction item, a mix of tension and anticipation evident on their faces. Xiangzhu clenched his fist slightly, his knuckles turning white, while Wang Sitsun continuously scrolled through his phone screen, desperately preparing funds in the final moments. Wang Chan, on the other hand, lay lazily on the sofa, quietly surveying his surroundings. For him, this auction was a sure thing. He felt no pressure from anyone present. He intended to ensure that Koizumi Shota would leave. Empty-handed tonight. Not far away, Koizumi Shota was huddled with several men dressed in traditional Japanese attire, whispering and occasionally bursting into boisterous laughter. His gaze frequently. darted towards Wang Chan and the others filled with disdain. At this moment, on stage, the auctioneer gently unveiled the red silk. An auction item came into view, a beautifully crafted ancient jade sculpture. The warm jade quality and the exquisitely detailed craftsmanship sparkled under the lights, immediately drawing gasps of admiration from the audience below. This jade sculpture, originating from ancient Hua Gua, showcases unparalleled craftsmanship, with a history that can be traced back to the Yongle period of the Ming dynasty. This piece has traveled through time to be presented before you today, which is. Truly remarkable. Without further ado, the starting bid is 5 million. The auctioneer announced passionately.As soon as the words fell, a flurry of bidding cards shot up from the audience. 6 million. Xiang Zhao raised his card high without hesitation, shouting loudly. He fixed his gaze on the jade sculpture on stage, exuding a determination that it must be his. Seeing this, Koizumi showed his lips curled. Into a slight smirk, a cold smile appearing as he raised his card and shouted, 7 million. Wang Chen snorted coldly and immediately raised the bid, 10 million. 12 million. As the price soared, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense and heated, as if invisible gunpowder filled the air. Each card raised felt like a silent declaration of war, tightening everyone’s hearts. The auctioneer’s gaze darted quickly. Between the bidders, his voice rising in excitement, 18 million once, 18 million twice, 20 million. At that moment, Koizumi Shota suddenly stood up, his expression full of arrogance as he shouted, loudly. He looked provocatively at Wang Chan and the others, his face suggesting he was already certain that this item would belong to him. Xiang Zhao gritted his teeth in anger, about to raise his card. Again, but Wang Chen pressed down on his hand and immediately raised the bid, 50 million. Wang Chen’s gaze was calm as he whispered, leave it to me, the main event is still to come. Xiang Zhao suppressed. His inner fury and slowly lowered his hand. The auctioneer’s gaze shifted to Wang Chen, his voice excitedly announcing, 50 million once, 50 million twice. He then loudly inquired, is there a higher bid? Baka. Although Koizumi Shota was filled with resentment, he could only sit down angrily. Although the Koizumi family had substantial financial resources, spending 50 million on a mediocre jade sculpture. Seemed like a wasteful act. Even though he was the heir of the next generation of the Koizumi family, he didn’t dare to spend money so recklessly. Congratulations to this gentleman for winning the jade. Sculpture from the Ming Dynasty during the Yongle period of Hua Gua. As the auctioneer’s hammer fell, the bidding for the first item came to a close. The auction continued in an orderly manner. Shota Kuen. They won’t be proud for long, a young man beside Koizumi Shota whispered. Don’t worry, we’ll find a chance to turn it around later, the funds are almost ready, another lanky man leaned in and said in a low voice. Hi, Kenichi Kuen and Tetsuya Kuen are right, I was too anxious. At that moment, Abe Sakura walked over with a graceful stride. She wore a traditional Japanese outfit, the 12-layered kimono, adorned with vibrant blooms of the Higginbana flower, exuding beauty and allure. The wide obi at her waist perfectly accentuated her slender figure, adding a touch of elegance. Her chest rose high and beneath. The deep V neckline, a mysterious and enticing cleavage peaked out, evoking countless fantasies. Her petite red lips looked as if they had just fed on fresh blood, luscious and tempting. The glimmer in her. I seem to possess a captivating magic, and just the way she moved could easily ensnare souls, making it hard for anyone to escape. Abe Sikora elegantly sat down beside the group, a hint of playful. Amusement dancing at the corners of her mouth. She turned her gaze toward Wang Chen in the distance and said, Brother, the Samsung Lee family has been contacted, you can rest assured. Abe Tetsuya nodded. Slightly in response, saying, Yoshi. With the support of the Samson Lee family, Shota Kun can relax now. Hi. I was too cautious, thank you, Miss Sakura. Koizumi Shota’s eyes revealed a hint of lewdness. His greedy gaze occasionally sweeping over Abe Sakura’s prominent chest. Abe Sakura shot a glance at Koizumi Shota, her face filled with dis don’t underestimate the few people in the middle, the son of the richest man in Hua Gua, Wang Sikong, Wang Chen from Rome province, and Xiang Zuo from the Xiang family, these three are not to be trifled with. Sato Kenichi said with a serious expression. Wang Chen? Abe. Sakura looked at Wang Chen thoughtfully, unconsciously murmuring his name. At that moment, several young women in Kipeo’s walked out from backstage, steadily holding a tray. On the tray lay the second auction. Item. The auctioneer paused slightly on stage, waiting for the first item to be properly taken away, then stepped forward to gently unveil a piece of golden brocade on the tray. In an instant, a dazzling light. Flashed in the eyes of the audience, revealing a mysterious treasure from ancient Egypt. The Golden Scepter of the Pharaoh. Ladies and gentlemen, the treasure presented before you now has a significant background. It comes from the ancient and mysterious Egypt and symbolizes the power of the Pharaoh. The auctioneer passionately introduced the scepter is made entirely of pure gold, with a rare green gemstone embedded at the top. It is said that this gemstone possesses mysterious magical powers that can protect its holder. This golden scepter is one and a half meters long, with a fan-shaped top. Endured thousands of years, it carries the incredibly glorious and honorable history of the ancient Egyptian dynasty. This treasure comes from an English nobleman, and through our professional appraisal, we. Confirm that this golden scepter is from the Pharaoh Tutankhamun of ancient Egypt. We are 100% certain that this is a genuine article. The auctioneer grew more excited as he spoke the scepter in his. Hand reflecting dazzling light under the spotlight. The audience was deeply captivated, with gasps of amazement rising one after another. I believe everyone understands the value of this treasure, uh. Starting bid is 88 million, the auctioneer shouted. As soon as he finished speaking, the audience erupted in a commotion, everyone rolling up their sleeves, ready to bid. The first to raise his paddle was a wealthy man of Middle Eastern appearance. Dressed in a white robe and wearing a white checkered headscarf, he exuded grandeur with every gesture. He shouted loudly, 100 million Huasha coins. Shota Koizumi was not one to back down. After his previous defeat, he was filled with determination. Seeing someone make the first move, he immediately raised his paddle and shouted, 120 million. He turned to provoke. Wang Chen and the others, his eyes revealing a hint of ferocity, as if he was determined to win. Wang Chen looked at the golden scepter on stage, stroked his chin in contemplation for a moment, and felt a stir in his heart. He wondered if the eye of truth could discern the authenticity of this golden scepter. A glimmer of gold flashed in his eyes, and he opened the eye of truth to look at the stage. Item. Golden Scepter of the Pharaoh from Pharaoh Tutankhamen, dated 1331 BC, made entirely of gold, embedded with a green gemstone said to protect its holder.Wang Chen felt a surge of joy inside, but his face remained impassive. The Eye of Truth could actually reveal information about these treasures. He had previously thought of the Eye of Truth as merely a tool to gauge favorability, but now it seemed to be vastly underutilized. If these treasures could be seen, could lottery tickets, gambling stones, even everyday items be visible too? Wang Chen’s gaze shifted to the Vacheron Constantin watch on his wrist. Item, Vacheron Constantin artisan series as a legendary model in the watchmaking industry, its design blends classic and modern styles crafted by the world’s top artisans. Wang Chen nodded to himself. Confirming his suspicions, this was indeed the correct way to utilize the eye of truth. He slightly leaned towards Xiang Zhuo and whispered a few words, then raised his paddle calmly with a smile, saying, 150. Million. Wang Sikong beside him was also staring at the stage, looking tense as he fiddled with his phone. Shota Koizumi shot a fierce glare at Wang Chen and raised his paddle again, shouting, 160 million. 180 million. Wang Chen responded leisurely once more.As the bidding continued to rise, the atmosphere became increasingly tense. A European man joined the fray, speaking in a pure British accent, too. 100 million. I’m going to secure this ancient Egyptian pharaoh’s scepter. This wealthy white man was dressed in a black tailcoat, with a finely tied bow tie, and his eyes, behind gold-rimmed glasses, radiated a fervent desire for this treasure. Wang Chen raised his paddle again and shouted, 250 million. Seeing this, Qin Feng tugged at Wang Chen’s arm and said, Wang Chen, take it easy. Although this golden scepter is precious, it’s not worth more than 300 million. It’s fine, Wang Chen replied nonchalantly. This ancient Egyptian golden scepter was indeed rare, and Wang Chen was. Quite fond of it. Moreover, he had a bet with Koizumi Shota, so he was determined to win it. 300 million. Koizumi Shota said nervously, raising his paddle to bid again. The auctioneer’s gaze instantly. Shifted to Koizumi Shota, excitedly announcing 300 million once, 300 million twice. Is there a higher bid? Wang Chen raised his paddle and shouted, 350 million. You little Japanese, if you have the guts, keep up. Koizumi Shota shouted angrily, 355 million, 380 million. Wang Chen provocatively glanced at him and raised his paddle again. The auctioneer excitedly said, 380 million once, 380 million twice. Is there a higher bid? Bang. Congratulations to this gentleman for winning the golden. Scepter of Pharaoh Tutankhamen. As the auctioneer’s hammer fell, the golden scepter was secured by Wang Chen. Shensou and the chubby guy immediately raised their middle fingers at Koizumi Shota in unison. Baka. This is too much. Koizumi Shota angrily slammed his fist on the armrest. Abe Tetsuya calmly picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, this golden scepter is worth at most 350. Million, since he wants it, let him have it. What Tetsuya Kuen said is right. I heard that the highlight of this auction is a rare treasure from Hua Gua, Sato Kenichi said, let them be arrogant for a while. As more auction items appeared, the atmosphere in the venue became increasingly heated, with bids rising and falling like surging waves. Wang Chen, with his substantial financial power, successively acquired several treasures, including a bronze sword from the warring states period, which he secured for 12 million, drawing envious glances from others. Xiang Zuo and Wang Sitzong also made some purchases. However, with Koizumi Shota causing trouble nearby, they ended up spending quite a bit to win their bids. At this moment, the lights on stage focused again, and several elegantly dressed attendants slowly. Brought out a new auction item. Ladies and gentlemen, this gold and silver pipa was made during the Tang Dynasty in Huagwa and later brought to Japan, where it was lost due to war. The pipa is 114.5 centimeters long, with a surface inlaid with gold and silver patterns, and its body is made of copper and wood. Its exquisite craftsmanship has withstood the test of time, remaining intact to this day, making it a rare treasure. The auctioneer passionately introduced while the panoramic display showed the specific details of the treasure. I believe everyone understands the value of this treasure. The starting bid is 40 million. As soon as the words fell, many people in the audience began to stir. Wang Chen opened his true eye and focused on it. Item, gold and silver peepa manufactured in the 23rd year of the Kiyuan era of the Tang dynasty, the body is made of copper and wood, with a black lacquer finish, and the strings are made of purple sandalwood, featuring ice patterns. The back of the pipa has silver inlaid. Double dragon patterns on both sides of the longchi, and double phoenix patterns on both sides of the fengzhao, adorned with flowers and grass. 50 million. Koizumi Shota was the first to strike, raising his bidding paddle with a swift motion and shouting loudly. After all, this was a treasure from his own country, and he was not willing to let it go easily. Yuongchin saw this in the corners of his. Mouth slightly lifted, revealing a faint smile as he leisurely raised his paddle and said, 60 million. Although this golden and silver peepa was brought from the Tang dynasty to Japan and had stayed there. For over a thousand years, it should not remain there any longer, it’s time to go home. Koizumi Shota’s expression changed slightly, and he gritted his teeth, raising his paddle again, 70 million. This is something from my Japan, don’t think you can take it easily. He turned to Wang Sikong and Wang Chen, his face darkening as he spoke. At this moment, Wang Sikong also became interested, he stared. At the peepa on stage, fiddling with his phone, and after a moment of contemplation, he joined the bidding war. He immediately raised his paddle and shouted, 80 million. Wang Chen and Wang Sikong exchanged. A glance and chuckle, both understanding each other. At this time, an elderly man with white hair slowly raised his paddle and spoke in an ancient-sounding Japanese, 90 million. The crowd turned. To look, seeing the old man with a head of white hair, dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, elegantly made of cotton and linen, with a dark woven belt firmly securing his kimono, occasionally adorned. with a small wooden or bone accessory. The atmosphere in the room grew increasingly tense, the frequency of bids rising rapidly, and the price soared like a rocket. Sweat began to beat on Koizumi Shota’s forehead, and with a determined heart, he shouted, 100 million. Wang Chen raised his paddle again, 130 million. Whoever buys this peepa is fine, but it cannot be Koizumi Shota. Otherwise, how would he show his face? Koizumi Shota’s face turned ashen as he raised his paddle and shouted, 200 million. Wang Chen raised his paddle again, 250 million. 300. Million. 350 million. Baka, how much money does this kid have? Koizumi Shota clenched his fists tightly, helplessly retreating. The auctioneer’s voice grew increasingly high-pitched as he scammed the crowd, calling out 350 million once, 350 million twice. Congratulations to this gentleman. Bang! With the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, Wang Chen successfully secured the item once again. Shensu and the chubby boy were so excited they were dancing, with the chubby boy even shaking his butt at Koizumi Shota. He looked incredibly pleased. Baka. Bang. Koizumi Shota was furious, kicking over the chair in front of him, this peepa is a treasure of my Japan, and now it’s been auctioned off by them, I can’t accept it. Abe Tetsuya remained calm as ever. He gently set down his teacup, stood up, and patted Koizumi Shota on the shoulder, comforting him, Shota-kun, don’t be too anxious, there’s still a grand finale to come, let’s see how long they can be. Pleased. As the bidding for the golden and silver peepa came to a close, the excitement in the room showed no signs of waning, with everyone eagerly anticipating the next heavyweight item to be presented. At this moment, the stage light suddenly became dazzling, all beams of light converging precisely in one spot. Several staff members in black uniforms, looking solemn, carefully pushed a specially made temperature and humidity-controlled display case into the venue. The display case was crystal clear, and through it, a piece of calligraphy resembling a painting clearly came into view for everyone. The Auctioneer dressed in a black suit, stood tall beside the display case, his face beaming with barely contained excitement. He slightly raised his hand, gently signaling for everyone to be quiet, and his deep, penetrating voice echoed throughout the auction hall. Ladies and gentlemen, the next item to be presented is a pinnacle masterpiece of Chinese cultural treasures, an insurmountable monument in the history of calligraphy. It is the authentic work of Wang Shiji’s Lan Tinggi-su from the Eastern Jin dynasty of Hua Gua. As soon as the words fell, the entire auction scene erupted like an exploding oil pan. What the? Hell, it’s the Lanting Su. Wasn’t it said to have been buried with Emperor Taizong of Tang? I heard it’s still in Xi’an Ling. Has Christie’s gotten so bold, did they dig it out from somewhere? The sounds of gasps, discussions, and sharp intakes of breath intertwine, instantly turning the scene into chaos. On the panoramic display screen, the flowing and graceful characters of Lantingi Su appeared. One by one, each stroke seemingly infused with life, dancing elegantly on the screen, telling the world of the leisurely and carefree gathering that took place a thousand years ago. Please, everyone, quiet down. I know you are all very excited, and I am too. As a person from Hua Gua, this is the most thrilling moment of my auctioneer career. This piece of calligraphy by Wang Shiji comes from the collection of a member of the French royal family who claims it dates back to the tumultuous era of the last century. This precious item has been authenticated by our experts at Christie’s Auction House and several other top auction houses, and we guarantee it is absolutely genuine. The starting price is 300 million. The auctioneer’s voice pierced through the noisy venue, striking the eardrums of the crowd. In the front row, a middle-aged man from Hua Gua, wearing glasses and exuding an elegant demeanor, had a fiery gaze. Almost instantly, he raised his bidding paddle and shouted, 400 million. Clearly, faced with a masterpiece like Lan Tinggy Su, no Hua Gua person could resist its allure. Wang Chin sat in his seat, his gaze cutting through the crowd, fixated on Lan Tinggy Su in the display case. His eyes filled with obsession and shock. Item, Lan Tinggy Su on the third day of the third month in the ninth year of Yongha during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, AD 353, Wang Shiji, along with Xian, Sun. Chua, and others, drank wine and composed a preface which became Lan Tinggi Su. Next to him, Xiangzhu shook his arm vigorously and exclaimed, Wang Chen, this is a divine work by Wang Xixi. The price is likely to skyrocket. Wang Chen nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and slowly raised his paddle. 500 million. The top-tier masterpiece of running script had been lost for many years. How many emperors in history had sought it in vain? He was determined to acquire it. At this moment, Koizumi Shota could no longer contain himself, he suddenly stood up, his face flushed, and shouted, Six. Hundred million. Such an extraordinary work deserves a chance to be collected by our country. Hmm, do you think you can touch, Lantingi Su? I bid seven hundred million. Wang Sitsan’s expression was. Excited, and he sneered, cursing. The bidding voices rose and fell, the prices galloping like wild horses. A petroleum tycoon from the Middle East also joined the fray, dressed in a white robe and wearing a. traditional Arab headdress, raising his bidding paddle high, 800 million. I am willing to use the wealth earned from this oil to safeguard this brilliant crystallization of human civilization. Wang. Chen fixed his gaze on Lantingi Siu and raised his paddle again, 1 billion. This piece carried the cultural heritage of Hua Xia civilization for a thousand years, how could he bear to see it fall into? Foreign hands? At this moment, the atmosphere in the auction hall had reached a peak of tension, the air seemingly solidified by the fierce bidding. The crowd’s eyes darted between the bidders, their heartbeats. Quickening with the rising prices. Koizumi Shota exchanged hushed words with those beside him, his eyes filled with reluctance and he shouted, 1,100 ,000,000. This is my final bottom. Line. Wang Chen immediately raised his paddle and said, is that not enough? 1,500,000,000. The auctioneer’s voice trembled slightly with excitement as he looked around and called. Out loudly, 1,500,000,000 once, is there a higher bid? 1,500,000,000 twice. 1,500,000,000 three times. Sold. Congratulations to this gentleman. Bang! As the auctioneer’s gavel fell heavily, the entire auction hall fell silent. The sound of a pin dropping could be heard. After a moment, many people sighed deeply, repeatedly pounding their chests, regretting that they hadn’t prepared a bit more funds. This was Lan Tinggi Su, a treasure that countless emperors in history had sought in vain. Many present would likely remember it even into their old age. Until the end of time, Chen Su and the chubby boy were so excited that tears filled their eyes as they rushed forward to embrace Wang Chen tightly. Wang Shiji’s Lantingisu, after a thousand years, of twists and turns, was finally acquired by Wang Chen at the astronomical price of one and a half billion. Returning to Hua Xia, the venue erupted in applause. This treasure had almost fallen into the hands of Koizumi Shota, who knows how many years it would take to bring it back to Hua Xia again. Xia Wang, with an excited expression, hugged Wang Chen and said, dude, you have to let me borrow it to show off. At home. If my old man finds out I brought back Lantingisu, he’ll be over the moon. Sure, Wang Chen replied, feeling a sigh of relief as the auctioneer’s gavel fell, then said casually. Koizumi Shota’s expression was one of unwillingness, he clenched his fist so tightly that his knuckles turned white, his chest heaving violently. He turned to his friends beside him, his eyes seeming to spit fire, his voice hoarsened sharp with anger and frustration. Baka, this Lantengi suit should have been mine, it was just a hair’s breadth away. Do you know what this means? This is the pinnacle of Hua Xia’s cultural treasures. If we could bring it back to our great wa country, it would be such glory, enough to make us proud throughout the entire great wa empire. Shotokun, don’t be too upset. The price has really. Skyrocketed, our budget isn’t unlimited, Abe Tetsuya patted his shoulder and advised. Without the next auction item, no matter how high Lantingisu goes, I’ll go bankrupt, sell everything I have to get. It. Koizumi Shota suddenly shook off his friend’s hand, eyes wide as he shouted. Sato Kenichi looked troubled and muttered softly, Shotokun, the next auction item is also very important. The task we. word given from above, whomf. Koizumi Shota snorted coldly, interrupting him, what do they know? Can they appreciate the true value of Lentinggy Su? If we miss this chance, who knows when the next will come, maybe we’ll never have another opportunity. After saying this, he looked up at the sky, letting out a long sigh, feeling a lump stuck in his chest. At that moment, the sounds of laughter and joy, from Xiangzhuo, Wang Sitsong, and others floated over from a distance. To Koizumi Shota’s ears, it was even more grating. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence. Wang Chen, I’ll remember this debt. Don’t think it’s over just like that. Lantingi Su won’t escape my grasp. Koizumi Shota felt a surge of anger burning in his chest, causing him pain, with nowhere to vent his frustration, he could. Only glare. Just then, the lights on the stage began to change again. The originally bright white light slowly took on a layer of mysterious and solemn golden blow. Everyone held their breath, anticipating. The final auction item. Several staff members carefully brought out a temperature and humidity-controlled display case. Ladies and gentlemen, today’s auction has been spectacular. But what’s about to be? Unveiled is the final auction item, a treasure so precious it can be considered the most dazzling and eye-catching pearl on the crown, a monumental work in the treasury of human knowledge. The auctioneer. Solemnly concluded and stepped forward to introduce. Inside the case, resting on thick brocade, lays 68 ancient tomes. Please look, this is the original Youngla de Dayan, compiled with the full strength of the nation during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. This great work gathers 7 to 8,000 types of ancient and modern books covering various fields such as classics, history, philosophy, astronomy, geography, medicine, divination, Buddhist and Taoist scriptures, drama, crafts, and agriculture. It is undoubtedly an encyclopedic collection of literature, though it has endured the ravages of time. War, and Fire, only 68 volumes remain in the world today, yet each page carries the infinite wisdom and effort of human civilization, a masterpiece of Chinese civilization, and a pride of all human. Civilization. The auctioneer’s passionate introduction was like a blazing fire, instantly igniting the enthusiasm of the entire audience. The stage’s display screen showcased high-definition images of the inner. Pages of the Yongle de Dayan. The tiny, neat calligraphy and exquisite illustrations made one feel as if they had traveled through time, immersed in the flourishing culture of the great Ming dynasty, where. Nations came to pay homage. It was filled with numerous beautiful illustrations and paintings. Starting bid, $880 million. In the front row, an elderly man with white hair but a spirited demeanor, resembling a scholar, was the first to tremble as he raised his bidding paddle, his voice shaking slightly as he said, $1 billion. I have dedicated my life to the study of ancient texts, if I can bring back a portion of the original young Linda Dian to our country, it would be a small contribution to the inheritance of Chinese culture. Xiaoquan Xiangta immediately raised his paddle and said, 1.2 billion. He had waited all night and finally got to this centerpiece item. Item, Yongle de Dayan completed in the sixth year of the Yongle Rain 1408 of the Ming Dynasty, presided over by the Kram Prince’s tutor Yao Guangzhou and Hanlon scholar Xie Jin, with over 3,000 participants in its compilation, totaling 11,095 volumes, approximately 370 million characters, gathering nearly 8,000 types of books from ancient and modern times. The largest encyclopedia in history, a treasure of human civilization. Wang Chin looked solemnly at the Yongle de Dayan. He wasn’t particularly fond of it, but he knew. How important the Yongle de Dayan was for Chinese civilization. Wang Chin sneered, I bid 1 .5 billion, our Chinese treasure is not for outsiders to covet. 1.6 billion. This Yongle de Dayan not only belongs to Hua Gua but is also a cultural heritage of all humanity. Placing it in our top European museums would allow more people to appreciate the charm of eastern civilization. Upon hearing this, Wang Chin turned to look. Not far away, an elderly white man in a sharp black suit spoke fluent French. Wang Chin fixed his gaze on the young Le Didion on stage and raised his paddle again, too. Billion. Suddenly, a voice with a Korean accent rang out from the crowd, ah, how can this thing be without our Republic of Korea? Everyone turned to see a young man stand up, dressed in a sharp suit, his hair slicked back, exuding a unique confidence and arrogance. He loudly declared, 2.1 billion, this young Le Didion is wanted by the Lee family of Samsung. It’s someone from Samsung. This is. Troublesome, I wonder how high the price will go. The bidding voices in the auction hall surged like waves, one after another, the prices skyrocketing as if on a rocket. The atmosphere in the auction hall was. So tense it felt like it could spark, making it hard to breathe. The crowd’s gazes darted like lightning between the various bidders. Heartbeats raced with the rising prices, thumping like drums, feeling. As if they would burst from their throats. Shaquan Xiangta and a few others beside him were like ants on a hot pan, anxiously muttering, shouting, three billion. Wang Chen, undeterred, immediately raised. His paddle, 3.5 billion. Ah, 3.6 billion. Li Zai-sun also refused to back down, frowning and gritting his teeth, shouting loudly in Korean. The auctioneer’s voice trembled with. Excitement, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. His gaze swept back and forth between Wang Chen and the other bidders, shouting hoarsely, 3.6 billion once, 3.6 billion twice. Is there a higher price? Wang Chen raised his paddle again, 3.8 billion. A direct increase of 2 billion. This treasure, 3.8 billion, was definitely not its true value. 4. Billion. 4.2 billion. 4.3 billion. Wang Chen, helpless, disregarded whether he had enough money in his bank card and could only raise his paddle again. I bid 6 billion. After saying that, he looked at Koizumi Shota and said, if you have the guts, keep following me. Koizumi Shota’s face turned ashen, staring fiercely at Wang Chen, squeezing out a sentence through clenched. Teeth, Wang Chen, you have repeatedly ruined my plans. I will remember this debt, and we shall see. The auctioneer’s voice excitedly shouted, 60 billion once, 60 billion twice. Is there a higher? Bid? 60 billion for the third time. Sold. Bang. As the auctioneer’s hammer fell heavily, the entire auction hall fell into a deftly silence, followed by an explosive round of thunderous applause. The 68 original volumes of the Young Lee Encyclopedia, after enduring the vicissitudes of time and wandering in foreign lands, reappeared in the world. History will remember this day. Lee Zison also wore a Face of frustration, glaring fiercely at Wang Chen, cursing a few words in Korean, then waving his hand, he turned and left the venue directly. After the auction ended, the crowd gradually dispersed. At this moment, an elderly scholar with white hair slowly walked towards him. Young people are to be feared. His voice was filled with excitement, his eyes full of emotion and appreciation, extending his hand to Wang Chen and saying, I am Professor Wei Chi -ming from Huking University. Thank you for your contribution to the country, this is indeed a great achievement. Professor Wei, you flatter me, Wang Chen. quickly stood up, extending his hand respectfully and saying, my name is Wang Chen, you can just call me Xia Wang. I only did what I thought was right. This Yongle encyclopedia originally belongs to Hua Xia, and I absolutely cannot let it fall into foreign hands. Professor Wei nodded slightly and said, do you know the significance of this Yongle encyclopedia for our country and for Hua Xia culture? Wang Chen scratched his head, awkwardly replying, not really. This Yongle encyclopedia was created during the Yongle period of the Ming dynasty, when the court gathered countless scholars and craftsmen who poured their heart and soul into it. At the time of its compilation, it gathered around 7 to 8 thousand types of ancient and modern books, covering astronomy, geography, classics, history, medicine, and crafts, making it a masterpiece of Hua Sha culture. Professor Wei paused, a hint of melancholy flashing in his eyes. Unfortunately, after enduring the trials of time, wars, fires, and plundering, it has disappeared from history, and now only these 68 volumes remain. But even so, every page, every line, every word is a key to understanding ancient Hua Sha culture. Professor Wei turned to Wang Chen. Looking at him with great anticipation, I have spent my life studying ancient texts, and if they could enter professional academic institutions, the value they could provide would be immeasurable. I implore. You, could you consider lending this Yongle encyclopedia to the relevant national departments for research for a while? So that more scholars and experts can have the opportunity to touch history and uncover the hidden culture within. Listening to the scholars’ heartfelt words, a surge of warmth rose in Wang Chen’s heart. He pondered for a moment and replied solemnly, Professor Wei, rest assured, I did. Not buy it for private collection. Since you have spoken, I will definitely cooperate fully. Tears shimmered in Professor Wei’s eyes as he tightly grasped Wang Chen’s hand. Good. Good. With your word, I. Can rest easy. Once his emotions calmed down slightly, Professor Wei finally took a closer look at the young man before him. So young, yet so extraordinary in action. Which family’s young master could this. Be? Unable to contain his curiosity, Professor Wei gently asked, Xiao Wang, may I ask, judging by your demeanor, you are certainly not an ordinary person, you must have an extraordinary family background, right? Wang Chin wore his usual gentle and humble smile, saying without any airs, Professor Wei, my family just runs a small business, nothing worth mentioning. Professor Wei raised an eyebrow, annoying. Smile on his face, your small business is anything but simple. Being able to make a decisive bid for this young le encyclopedia is not something an ordinary family can achieve. Just luck. Ha ha ha. Little sly one. Soon after, Wang Chen and Xiang Zhao, along with a few others, arrived at the backstage of the auction to handle the relevant procedures. The staff, with a professional smile, politely said to Wang Chen, Mr. Wang, congratulations on winning these rare treasures. You need to pay 8.4 billion Hua Xia coins. According to the process, we now need to complete the payment settlement, so, please provide your payment method. Card swipe. Wang Chen nodded slightly, took out his bank card, and first paid 6 billion for the Yongle Encyclopedia. He then paid the remaining 2.4 billion. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 8 .4 billion and a double cashback of 16.8 billion is granted. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 840,000 system points. Wang Chen’s expression was. Excited, 840,000 points were unprecedented. He had never been this wealthy since his rebirth. System, open the personal panel. Age, 20 years, height, 188 centimeters, charm, 92, physique, 120, the normal human. limit is 100, stamina, 120, the normal human limit is 100, entry, double cashback, entry effect, all reasonable expenses will be refunded double, extreme physique, entry effect, from this moment on, you are the pinnacle of human physique, solidification, entry effect, points, 887,387, hua sha coins, 15 ,960,807,894, yes, Wangchen vigorously waved his fist, the joy in his heart, nearly overflowing. 15 .9 billion Hua Xia coins, 880,000 system points. He had never fought such a wealthy battle. After the payment process was smoothly completed, Christie’s auction house displayed a high level of professionalism and efficiency. They quickly arranged a naval escort to carefully transport the many treasures Wang Chen had won to their yacht dock nearby. These treasures were properly secured by bodyguards, layered with protection to ensure everything was foolproof. Once everything was handed over, Wang Chen stood on the deck of the ship with Wang Si Tsong and Xiang Zhao, the sea breeze gently. brushing past, carrying a hint of saltiness, stirring their hair. Xiang Zhao stepped forward, patted Wang Chen’s shoulder firmly, and laughed heartily, Wang Chen, this time is truly a great victory. But you. All need to hurry back and properly settle these things to avoid any long-lasting dreams. We’ll meet again. Wang Chen nodded heavily, grasping Xiang Zhao’s hand and said, definitely, once we return to. Modu, we should gather properly when we have time. What a pity, there are so many fun things on the Ocean Symphony, but we can only give them up. Chen Su chimed in from the side. Then, to prevent any accidents, Wang Chan and the others had to part ways with Xiang Zhao and boarded their own yacht. The yacht slowly started, cutting through the calm sea, speeding towards the direction of Modu. Wang Chan stood on the deck of the yacht, looking back at the gradually receding ocean symphony, feeling a surge of emotions. The scenes of this night were truly spectacular. The scenes from his past life in the novel were happening in reality, especially meeting Xiang Zhao, which brought Wang Chan a wave of joy. More friends mean more paths. The Xiang family has many connections. Under the nightfall, the Miyako, straight, the dark blue sea gently ripple, sparkling with fragmented silver waves. The sea breeze in the early morning carried a hint of chill, mingling with the unique salty scent of the ocean freely weaving between the yachts, stirring people’s hair. The yacht beneath them was cutting through the waves in this sea area, and the deck was already a scene of lively celebration. A group of youthful and beautiful girls were laughing and chatting, gracefully weaving through the crowd. In the center of the deck, a girl with long hair down to her waist and a beautiful face, wearing a pink bikini, swayed her slender body. To the rhythm of the dynamic music, she was not throwing flirtatious glances at the few people. Chen Su held a glass of champagne in his hand, spraying it recklessly. He turned his head and, with wide eyes, shouted at Wang Sikong, who was leisurely smoking beside him, look at this scene today, this setup. My goodness, it’s even more intense than what you see in the movies. It feels like we’re on a roll this time, we’ve snagged all those extraordinary treasures. When we get back to Magic City, I’m going to show off properly. Wang Sitsong’s lips curled slightly, the wisps of smoke rising leisurely. He took a slow, deep breath, glanced at Shinsu, and teased, look at you, getting all worked up over this little scene? If you ask me, it’s all thanks to our Wang Chen. That charisma, that vision, simply incredible. He managed to grab every single treasure without missing a beat. This kind of operation is not something just anyone can pull off, Gene from remarked. After spending the night together, especially after. The auction, Wang Chen had already earned their recognition. Even though they knew about Wang Chen’s family background, his displayed financial power was still shocking. Xin Fen and Wang Sikong were fine, but Chen Su and the chubby guy had already started treating Wang Chen with a bit of respect. The other girls on the deck didn’t think too much about it. All they knew was that Wang Chen was always at the center of this group of rich second-generation heirs. He held a high status, was handsome, and wealthy. Tonight, he had splurged extravagantly, buying numerous treasures. Their eyes were all fixed on Wang Chen. like hungry wolves, wishing they could swallow him whole. Lele and Tang Tang were especially envious and jealous. Boss, we have a situation. At that moment, the captain suddenly shouted at Wang Sikong. Hearing this, Wang Sikong turned to look at the sea. In the distance, three yachts sped toward them like black phantoms, cutting through the waves. Leading the deck were Koizumi Shota, Abe Tetsuya, and Sato. Kenichi. Koizumi Shota was dressed in a black trench coat, the ends flapping wildly in the wind, and with his short stature, he looked quite out of place. His face was terrifyingly dark, with a twisted. Expression and a sinister grin fixated on Wang Chan and the other’s yacht. Behind him, over a hundred subordinates dressed in matching black combat uniforms, armed with rifles, exuded a fierce aura. The three yachts suddenly stopped, blocking Wang Chan and the other’s path, splashing a large amount of water. Yo, Wang Chan, you don’t take the road to heaven, yet you crash into hell. Didn’t expect to see you. Again out here on the high seas, did you? He he he. Koizumi Shota strode to the bow, looking down at Wang Chan and the others with a chilling laugh. What are we going to do? They have guns. a girl exclaimed her face pale with fear her voice trembling wang chen’s expression hardened as he coldly replied koizumi shoda what do you want are you not afraid of international opinion by openly using force on the high seas koizumi shoda scoffed his smugness growing opinion this is international waters who would know what happens here my koizumi family is a family of arms dealers we have plenty of ways to make everything go unnoticed you’ve repeatedly thwarted my plans do you really think you can escape and scathed and return to hua gua At this moment, Chinsu also stepped forward, his eyes wide with anger as he pointed at Koizumi Shota and shouted, you little Japanese brat, don’t be so arrogant. Competing fairly at the auction, and when you can’t match us financially, you want to resort to underhanded tactics? Do you still have any shame? Abe Tetsuya shook his head and said, that’s not the point. It’s just a matter of who has the better means. Sato Kenichi shrugged and said, you’re at death’s door and still talking tough. I’ll give you one more chance, if you’re smart, hand over everything quickly, and I might spare your lives. Otherwise, this time next year will be your death anniversary. Try. Moving against us. The naval ships from various countries are patrolling nearby. As soon as you fire a shot, within minutes, the naval ships from Hua Gua will arrive. By then, it’ll be too late for you. To escape. Wang Sikong glared angrily, responding fearlessly. He gestured with the hand he had behind his back towards the captain. The captain understood, nodded slightly, and quietly pressed a button. UMGB, little Japanese devils. You dare to brazenly rob our huagwa’s things, do you think we are soft persimmons? At this moment, the chubby guy also suppressed his fear and cursed loudly. Baka, still. Talking tough when death is imminent. Shota Koizumi was enraged by these words, his face flushed, veins bulging on his forehead, and he roared, shoot. I wanna see how tough your bones are. I want you to. Kneel and bow to me. In an instant, on the ship, over a hundred subordinates in combat uniforms raised their rifles, spreading out to shoot at them from various angles. Immediately, a series of deafening. Gunshots rang out, bullets whistling like raindrops, shattering tables, chairs, and railings on the deck. Ah! The girls turned pale with fright, screams rising and falling, huddling on the ground, trembling. Lungfong reacted quickly, diving to protect Wang Chen beneath him. Lengfeng’s gaze was resolute as he vigilantly observed the surroundings, despite the bullets whistling overhead, he showed no sign of. Retreat! He softly reassured Wang Chen, it’s okay for now, watch out for the bullets. For a moment, gunfire intertwined, smoke filled the air, and the calm sea was stirred into tumultuous waves. Under the cover of bodyguards, everyone bent low, using the yacht’s facilities as cover. The bodyguards retaliated with compound bows and other equipment, but unfortunately, the effect was minimal. Xi’in Feng crouched. Behind a stone pillar, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, anxiously shouting at Wang Sikong, old Wang, this won’t do, we need to think of a way. Captain, hurry up and accelerate in the opposite direction. Wang Sikong shouted. Okay, boss. The captain crouched, sweating profusely, carefully dodging the bullets fired from the opposite side, turned the ship’s bow, and accelerated to escape. Smack! Baka, they’re trying to run, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and chase them. Shota Koizumi threw a big slap in the captain’s face. Hi! The captain felt a shark pain on his face, and a surge of anger. Rose within him, but he held it back. After all, in the Japanese workplace, the hierarchy is very strong, and he didn’t dare to easily offend his superior. He could only vent his anger on Wang Chan and the others. He then pushed the yacht to maximum speed. Seeing that he couldn’t shake off the opponent, Wang Sikong scanned the surroundings and decisively shouted, Bodyguards, go to my room and get the weapons. They’re under my bed, hurry. A few bodyguards near the stairs exchanged glances and quickly crawled on the ground, flipping back to the stairwell below. In no time, they returned with submachine guns and other equipment hanging from their waists, struggling to carry several heavy boxes. The boxes hit the ground with a dull thud. The bodyguards quickly opened the boxes, revealing the weapons inside to everyone. Handguns, rifles, submachine guns, grenades, even a gleaming rocket launcher was inside. Everyone was dumbfounded. Damn, old Wong, you have these treasures, where did you get them? A rocket launcher. This thing is no joke. Xinfin’s eyes widened in shock, excitedly saying. Wang Sikong scratched his head, a hint of embarrassment on his face, explaining, after all, we came to the high seas, better safe. Then sorry. I thought it would be good to prepare more weapons just in case, who would have thought we would actually run into this kind of situation, isn’t this just perfect? At this moment, the gunfire. From the opposite side became increasingly dense, bullets hitting the cover and sparking everywhere. The first bodyguards to emerge quickly shot at the opposite side with submachine guns. Under their cover. The bodyguards on the yacht gradually retreated, picking up weapons to fight back, Wang Sikong gritted his teeth, picked up a submachine gun, skillfully checked the magazine, and pulled back the bolt. Excitedly shouting, Brothers, at this life and death moment, let’s go all out. Kill one and we break even, kill two and we profit. Wang Chen also stood up, took a rifle, squinted slightly, aimed at the enemies. On the yacht across, and calmly said, everyone be careful, just think of it as playing real life CS. With that, he pulled the trigger, and the bullet shot out, accurately hitting an enemy in the head, splattering blood everywhere. For his first kill, Wang Chen felt surprisingly calm. There was none of the nauseating reaction typical of protagonists in movies when they kill for the first time. He only felt a surge of adrenaline. The two sides were engaged in fierce gunfire, and the situation became increasingly tense. Koizumi showed a head behind a pillar on the opposite yacht’s deck, arrogantly shouting, Wangchen, you can’t escape today. Hand over the treasure obediently and I might leave your corpses intact. Wangchen snorted coldly and retorted, Koizumi Shota, you’re delusional. If you have the ability, come and take it with real skill. Using these underhanded tactics, aren’t you ashamed? Boom. At that moment, Lungfong seized the opportunity, crouched low, and quickly hoisted a rocket launcher during. A lull in the gunfire swiftly adjusted the angle and decisively pulled the trigger. With a loud whoosh, a rocket shot out with fury and a whistling sound. Instantly, it exploded on the opposite deck, creating a large crater, flames shooting up into the sky, smoke swirling, and debris flying everywhere. What? How do they have heavy weapons? Isn’t gun ownership banned in Hua Gua? A rocket launcher has. Come out? This is impossible. Koizumi Shota and his group were taken aback, their eyes wide with terror as he shouted. Seeing this, Wang Sikong burst into laughter, Koizumi Shota, didn’t expect this, did? You? This sea area has a nice view, you’ll be staying here today. Give it to me, shoot to kill. We can’t let them escape. Koizumi Shota, furious and humiliated, shouted hysterically. Upon hearing this, his subordinates immediately went wild, pouring firepower towards Wang Chen and the others. Bullets rained down like a torrential storm. After firing a rocket, Lung Phone quickly rolled back to cover, changing the magazine while shouting, Our firepower isn’t enough, everyone be careful. The fierce battle continued. Gunfire intertwined into a deadly web, bullets whistling across the sea surface. The air was. Thick with the acrid smell of gunpowder, mixed with the sea breeze, making one feel nauseous. At first, Wang Chen and the others were at a disadvantage in firepower, but with the sudden appearance of heavy weapons, they managed to turn the tide. Koizumi showed his gang, undeterred, relied on their numbers and continued their fierce assault, showing no signs of retreat. Just at this critical moment, ding ding. Ding, the satellite phone in Wang Sitsun’s pocket suddenly rang with an urgent tone. Seizing the moment while changing magazines, he hurriedly pulled out the phone. The signal on the other end seemed. unstable, mixed with static noise. As soon as he answered, a stern voice came through, saying, Wang kid, we are rushing to your aid at full speed, expected to arrive in three minutes. You must hold on. Wang. Sitsong’s eyes lit up, responding loudly, great. With you here, those little devils won’t escape, we can definitely hold on. At this moment, Wang Sitsong’s voice was filled with confidence. The tense nerves from before relaxed a bit. After hanging out, Wang Sikong excitedly shouted to everyone, brothers, our naval fleet is about to arrive. Hold on for these last three minutes, Koizumi Shota’s death is imminent. Upon hearing this, everyone’s morale surged, and their counterattack became even fiercer. Koizumi Shota faintly heard the alarm sound coming from afar. That sharp, urgent sound pierced the night sky, making his heart skip a beat. Koizumi Shota turned to look out at the distant sea and then asked Abe Tetsuya beside him, what is that sound? Could it be that the Huagwa Navy is really coming? From the sound. It’s likely true. We need to think of a way quickly. Abe Tetsuya’s calm face also showed signs of panic, his complexion pale as he stammered. At that moment, the alarm grew louder, and the massive silhouette of the Chinese naval fleet appeared on the horizon. Three destroyers led the charge, cutting through the waves like sword-wielding guards, their momentum formidable. The lights on the ships pierced the darkness like sharp blades. As the distance closed, the alarm from the fleet reverberated painfully in the ears, as if issuing the sternest warning to Koizumi Shota and his group. Koizumi Shota was. completely flustered beads of sweat rolling down his forehead as he shouted hoarsely quick stop firing retreat hurry up and retreat sato kenichi still tried to hold his ground saying are we just running away our plan before he could finish he was shot a fierce glare by abe tetsuya who said what plan if we don’t run now are we just waiting to be wrapped up by the chinese navy this is international waters even if we die here no one will care Wanchin saw that Koizumi Shota and the others were in disarray and seized the opportunity to mock. Koizumi Shota, why aren’t you so arrogant? Now, didn’t you want us to kneel and beg for mercy? Now you know fear? Koizumi Shota, furious yet helpless, could only grit his teeth and reply, don’t. Get cocky, we won’t settle this account today. The Chinese naval fleet quickly closed in, and a stern voice came over the loudspeaker on the destroyer. Unidentified vessel ahead, immediately cease all attacks and submit to inspection. Otherwise, we will take coercive measures. Unidentified vessel ahead. immediately cease all attacks and submit to inspection. Unidentified vessel ahead. The serious voice echoed over the sea, deafening. Koizumi Shota’s yacht hurriedly turned its bow. His subordinates frantically stowed away their weapons, the engines roaring as the three yachts fled like frightened dogs. But the Chinese navy would not let them off easily. The fleet fanned out and accelerated in pursuit. In an instant, splashes erupted on the surface. Of the water, the warships wake intertwining like silver ribbons. Wang Chen and the others stood on the yacht, watching Koizumi Shota’s group retreat and, The Navy fleet closing in, finally feeling relieved. Wang Sikhan let out a long breath and remarked, thanks to our Navy arriving in time. We don’t have much ammunition left, otherwise, today would have been a huge mess. Yeah, this is right in front of our doorstep, how could we let these little devils bully us? Xinfen rubbed his trembling legs and said. After a while, the Naval fleet dispatched a speedboat towards Wang Chen’s yacht. A soldier boarded the yacht. He looked quite young, dressed in a smart military uniform, standing tall like a pine tree, his shoulder insignia gleaning in the sunlight. He saluted the group and asked with concern, is everyone alright? We received the alarm and rushed over immediately. Wang Sikhong stepped forward, gratefully shaking the young soldier’s hand, saying, thank you for coming so quickly, we’re all fine, just a bit shaken. He then exchanged a glance with the bodyguard beside him. The bodyguard immediately understood, signaling to the other bodyguards to put away their weapons. No one is injured, right? The group looked at each other, checking for injuries. Wang Sikhong said, just some minor scrapes, it’s nothing. The officer nodded, his face serious as. He said, that’s good to hear. This area of the sea has been unstable lately, you must pay attention to safety on your subsequent journey. If anything happens, contact us at any time. He paused and continued, I won’t interfere with what you have on board in international waters, but once you return to Chinese waters, I hope you can handle your cargo properly, otherwise, severe punishment will follow. After giving his instructions, the officer returned to the speedboat and went back to the fleet. He then dispatched a frigate to escort Wang Chen and the others yacht towards Modu, providing them. with protection. Under the escort of the naval fleet, the yacht moved steadily forward, gradually approaching the waters of Hua Gua. Wang Chan and the others sat together, their moods slowly calming from the earlier tension and excitement. Wang Sikong glanced around and quietly said to the bodyguard, throw the firearms into the sea. We can’t bring these things back to the country, we don’t want to stir up trouble. The bodyguards nodded in agreement and quickly took action, binding the guns and ammunition one by one and sinking them to the seabed. Everyone understood Wang Sitsong’s intention upon seeing. This scene. After all, the domestic control over firearms is strict, and bringing these items back would only invite unnecessary trouble. The smoke from. The gunfire on the deck had not yet completely dissipated, mingling with the salty sea breeze, permeating the air. The girls huddled together in a corner. Of the deck, tightly embracing each other, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, as if they had not yet recovered from the intense gunfight. Lele had her. Eyes tightly closed, her long eyelashes damp with tears, sticking together as tears streamed down her cheeks, dripping onto her companion’s shoulder and. soaking a patch of clothing. Their hair was disheveled, with a few strands blown onto their faces by the sea breeze, and they had no energy to tidy up. Nearly gripping their companions’ arms mechanically, their nails turning white from the force. One short-haired girl was chattering her teeth, trembling. As she murmured, I thought. I thought we were going to die here today. Before she could finish, her words were interrupted by a fresh wave of sobs. The long-haired girl next to her gently patted her back, trying to comfort her, but her own voice was tinged with tears, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid. It’s all over. However, the slight tremor in her tone betrayed her inner unease. On the deck, the tables and chairs had long been smashed to pieces. Debris scattered everywhere. Some wooden planks were still smoking, remnants of bullets that had grazed them. The railings were twisted and deformed, revealing jagged gaps. Shell casings were strewn all over the ground. As the sea breeze blew, the smell of gunpowder, blood, and the ocean intertwined, causing a churn in the stomach. Although Wang Chan and the others were still shaken, seeing the girls in such a state prompted them to step forward and offer comfort. Don’t be afraid. It’s safe now. It’s all right. Wang Chen said softly as he approached Lei Lei. Whoa whoa. Lei Lei and Tang Tang immediately. Collapsed into Wang Chen’s arms, crying loudly. Wang Sikong, usually so nonchalant, looked at the girls with genuine concern and said, Don’t be afraid. We’re here. When we get back to Modu, everyone will receive a red envelope and then I’ll have someone take you to buy the latest bags and jewelry. Pick. Whatever you like, just to help you feel better. As he spoke, Wang Sikong made exaggerated gestures, trying to cheer the girls up and help them escape. Their fear. He knew that these girls had just experienced a life and death crisis. They needed something tangible to provide them with a sense of security. And comfort. Exactly, everyone was startled today. The principal will definitely be generous. Let’s put this behind us for now and think about what big meal we’ll have when we get ashore to treat ourselves well, Qin Fen chimed in. Chen Su and the chubby boy nodded repeatedly, with the chubby boy pulling out a few pieces of chocolate from his pocket and offering them to the girls, saying, have some sweets first, eating chocolate will lift your spirits. This is my special stash. As the girls listened to them, their cries gradually subsided. Although there were still tears in their eyes, their emotions slowly calmed down. They began to whisper to each other about the gifts they desired and the delicious food they wanted to eat. The next day, 8 o’clock, in the morning, the clouds at the horizon were painted in vibrant colors by the sunlight and birds flew by, chirping melodiously. At the Bund, inside, the Yuyuan Bund restaurant, Wang Sikong, and the others had booked the largest banquet hall. The girls, bodyguards, and service staff from the yacht. casually took their seats nearby wang chan and the others were gathered around a table how about we have a drink to calm our nerves xin fin said to wang chan sure wang chan replied decisively he wasn’t the type to drink excessively he would have a little when the mood struck but he had never drunk as much as he had in the past few days mainly because of last night’s gunfight which had his nerves on edge and he was still buzzing from it a little alcohol to soothe his mood wouldn’t hurt after a few rounds of drinks and dishes last night was something to brag about for a lifetime Sheen Fens. Cheeks were flushed, and there was still excitement in his eyes as he pounded the table and said, those bullets were flying everywhere, my heart was, in my throat, thinking I was done for. This is way better than drinking and chasing women, isn’t it? The chubby Li Xiang, with a mouthful of beef, mumbled in agreement, I even saw the grim reaper waving at me, and then when our mom showed up, that scene was just too shocking. The warship looked, like it came straight out of a sci-fi movie, as soon as it appeared, that piece of shit was so scared it ran home crying for its mom. Ha ha ha, I don’t. get why they made such a big deal over those antiques. Maybe the Japanese government wanted to take this opportunity to undermine the confidence of the Chinese people. Damn, the imperialists never give up on their ambitions. Qin Fen said angrily, if it weren’t for the fact that we were too close to the Japanese waters, we could have caught their ship and made them pay, what a pity. Wang Sitsong swirled his wine glass, the red wine creating ripples, and said regretfully. Suddenly, Qin Fen’s eyes lit up and he suggested, how about we go to old Wang’s bar tonight to celebrate everyone’s. Safe return? What do you think? Sounds good. The chubby one responded first, these past few days have been too intense, we need to party all night. To relax. Wang Sitsong put down his glass and waved his hand, saying, you guys go ahead, I won’t be joining. I’ve had enough of the hustle and bustle these days, I want to rest and recharge. Old Wang, are you getting old? Why so gloomy? Shut up. Everyone’s gaze turned to Wang Chen. What are you all looking at me for? Wang Chin nodded and smiled, let’s wait a few days, everyone should go home and rest up before hitting the bar. That works. Sheen. Feng didn’t press the issue and smiled, old Wong, you have to bring out your prized wine for everyone to taste then. You usually treasure it so much. You can’t refuse this time, right? Wang Sitsong smiled lightly and said, no problem. Old Wong, how’s that live streaming platform of yours doing lately? Sheen Feng continued. It’s just okay, not too hot or cold, Wang Sitsong said helplessly. Unfortunately, I got into the industry too late, it’s already. Developed industry leaders and I can only scrape by with the leftovers. Yeah, that’s true. Xinfe nodded and said, I’ve invested in quite a few. Industries, but not many are making money. How’s the market investment situation lately? Wang Chen asked as the two gradually shifted to discussing. Investments. Are you interested? Wang Sitsong turned to Wang Chen, curious. Just getting a sense of it, if there’s a suitable project, I’ll invest. Wang Chen said directly. After last night’s life and death moment, the few of them had clearly become true brothers. so there was no need to hide anything from them. Moreover, starting a company was only a matter of time, and since they were all in China, he couldn’t keep it from them. He said it outright to avoid affecting their feelings. Besides, he might even get some useful information from them. No way, dude. Qin Feng said exaggeratedly, you’re only a sophomore. Instead of enjoying these years, you’re already thinking about starting a business? This was also what Qin Su, the chubby one, and the others, wanted to ask, when they were in their 20s, who among them wasn’t living it up? Starting a business? Not a chance. Isn’t it better to be a wasteful, rich second generation, just eating and waiting to die? The investment market environment in Hoagwa right now is not something they can handle as rich second generations. It requires real money to be thrown in. In recent years, those internet battles online, which time did they not invest tens of billions, only to see not even a splash? You can play any time. I still have quite a bit of funds in hand. Keeping it in the bank is too much of a loss. Investing it out is definitely better than leaving it in a bank card. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, took a sip from his glass, and said, besides, I think this year’s investment environment is pretty good, it’s fine to invest a bit and test the waters. Wait, buddy, you still have money to invest? Didn’t you? Just spend over 8 billion last night? At this moment, Wang’s seat zone couldn’t help but show a look of surprise. Although Wang Chen has the backing of Pioneer Heavy Industries Group and won’t lack funds, he spent 84 billion last night buying a bunch of treasures, which is not the same as the false financial bubbles in the stock market. 84 billion in cash. How many people in all of Hua Gua can come up with that? Damn, how do you still have money? Qin Fen, who had just stood up, grabbed Wang Chen by the neck and said, give us the inside scoop, how much money do you really have left? Let go, let go. Wang Chen gasped for air as Qin Fen tightened his grip. Once he released him, Wang Chen said, I didn’t say I wouldn’t tell you. Why are you so excited? Qin Fen awkwardly smiled and shrank his neck. Wang Chen took a big gulp from his glass, finally feeling a bit relieved, only to see. Everyone at the table stretching their necks, eagerly looking at him. There’s still about a hundred billion in my account, Wang Chen said helplessly. Wang Si Tsong and Qin Feng’s expressions froze. The little fatty, who was munching on lobster, unconsciously stopped. A hundred billion. Is it a hundred? Billion or more than a hundred billion? Everyone lost their composure. Wang Si Tsong and Qin Feng were the second richest after Wang Chen, with Wang Si. Song being the son of the current richest man in Hua Gua. Their assets couldn’t compare to Wang Chen’s at all. Not to mention Chen Su, the little fatty, and others. Su Yuza, Lin Hao, and Wei Jinglun, who were in foreign trade, didn’t even have the qualifications to hold Wang Chen’s pants. I’ve tried to think of it as more, but I didn’t expect your funds to be even more than I imagined. Wang Sitsong looked deeply at Wang Chen, his gaze somewhat complicated. He didn’t doubt what Wang Chen said. The daily turnover of Pioneer Heavy Industries Group is an astronomical figure. Wang Chen completely has the ability to pull out hundreds of billions in cash. At their level, there’s no need to boast about their assets to gain others’ attention. What they care about more is the connections and resources behind them, the more important core elements that can bring them benefits. Over a hundred billion in cash. Wang C. Sung’s family’s company has a high market value, but he can’t come up with over a hundred billion in cash. Many assets are not liquid, and even if they can be liquidated, it takes time and the value would be greatly discounted. Billionaire tycoons are common in Modu, but can anyone in Modu actually come up with a hundred billion in cash? Wang Sitsong didn’t know, but he certainly couldn’t. Wang Chen, besides Pioneer Group and Huayao Group, are you sure? There are no other industries in your family? Xinfen said in shock, looking at Wang Chen, I thought Lao Wang and I were already the top rich second. Generations of the younger generation in Hua Gua, but it turns out you are the most impressive. Impressive. Impressive. Chen Su and the little fatty. Exchanged glances, clasped their hands together, and said in unison, me too. Wang Chen’s words brought them immense shock. There’s an old saying, golden. Bridges and silver roads, and considering it also involves the energy sector, such a large heavy industry enterprise is indeed low-key. Otherwise, the richest man in Hua Gua wouldn’t be my old man. Wang Sikong sighed, if you ask me, this richest man in Hua Gua should be Wang Chen’s father, that’s just terrifying. Xin Feng gradually calmed down and said, it is indeed terrifying. How is this like those rich tycoons in novels, casually talking about hundreds of billions? Chen Su’s eyes lit up at the words, he slapped his thigh and excitedly said, I got it. What did you get? Wang Sikong and Qin. Fun turned to look curious. Chen Su, with an excited expression and shining eyes, looked at Wang Chen and said, I know Wang Chen’s secret. Tell me. Is your family one of those hidden aristocratic families from the novels, now coming to Modu for university, just to play dumb and eat the tiger, then? Encountering a cocky rich second generation who provokes you, and in front of the rare beauty of the century, you slap him in the face like crazy, and in the end, you win the beauty and swallow his family? Chen Su said, still looking at Wang Chen with a vigilant expression, and jokingly patted his chest. saying, good thing I didn’t offend you, otherwise, my family would be doomed. If it weren’t for old Wang introducing you to us, with my usual arrogance, wouldn’t I be kneeling and begging for mercy in front of you by now? Wang Chen, initially tense at Shen Su’s words, wondered if this guy had discovered his system. But then, are you watching too many novels? A thousand-year -old aristocratic family? Do I also practice ancient martial arts? If I really did, I wouldn’t have to wait for the Navy fleet to arrive, I could sink those three yachts myself. Wang Chen looked at Chen Su with disdain, as if looking at a fool, and said, wake up kid, you should go to the hospital for a checkup. Damn, how did he not notice before that this guy was such a joker? His thought process is just too absurd. That’s true. Chen Su scratched his head and chuckled. However, Wang Sikong was deep in thought. With so much cash, if Wang Chen were to invest, the chances of success seemed quite high. After all, this was hundreds of billions in funds, not a small game. The nature was different. Since his family was willing to trust him with so much money, could it be that there was some insider information? Otherwise, which? Family would feel secure giving a college student so much money? As Wang Sikong thought of this he suddenly shivered and quickly said, Wang Chen, do you have some special connections? What Wang Sikong didn’t know was that Wang Chen indeed had information that others didn’t, and it wasn’t given by anyone else. It was the historical insight left over from his past life. With a foresight-like investment, was he still afraid of not making money? Wang Chen said lightly, there are no special connections, but our Huawei is developing so well now, there are plenty of investment opportunities. His, I still don’t understand. Chen Su first looked enlightened, then awkwardly said. Wang Chen glanced at him and helplessly said, I really, now Huawei, has fully entered the internet era. Since the advent of 4G, internet speed has greatly improved, leading to a series of changes. The first impact, was the e-commerce sector on the physical retail industry. Look, in recent years, during double 11 and double 12, the annual sales have increased. Exponentially. How many industries have been reshuffled, and how many billionaires have been born from it? Wang Sikong nodded in understanding. Of course, he understood these principles, he had thought about trying to enter the market. But the timing was too late, the internet was no longer a blue ocean, and his strength wasn’t enough to get a share. Isn’t it hard to enter the internet market? Now, the three major giants firmly control every aspect of the internet, and this. Wang Sikong pondered for a moment and said, over the years, I haven’t seen anyone break free from the checks and balances of these three internet companies. Those who dared to challenge their authority have all met with disastrous ends. Wang Chen smiled faintly and said, times are changing, nothing is set in stone. Those who cannot keep up with the pace of the times are destined to be swept away by the tide of the era. Moreover, with such a large population in Hua Gua, it is inevitable that there will be many unseen opportunities in the internet age. Since the last century, after decades of explosive technological advancement entering a new era, the development of science and technology has slowed down. Now, with the vigorous development of the internet, various emerging scientific technologies and concepts are emerging one after. Another, these are merely innovations and combinations of existing technologies. In this era, innovation is the most important, but mixing can also lead to success. After Wang Chen finished speaking, he smiled mysteriously. In a few years, Wang Sikong, Xinfeng, and others would understand what. Mixing truly meant how many companies have become the vanguard of the times by accurately grasping the pulse of the era, and how many companies have thrived through mixing? For example, companies like Moshi and Dami have successfully found their market positioning and can be considered based on the concept of mixing, especially with the sudden emergence of DY, which has devastated the entire network. DY company is based on a combination of various types of content, filming techniques and special effects, algorithm recommendations and social interaction functions, advertising, and content. mixing, and other groundbreaking concepts. In just a few years, it has created a massive business empire. As for a certain company based on innovative development, let’s not mention it for now. Just look at shared bicycles and shared power banks, these have stirred up a frenzy in the HuaGua market. A certain group has even captured more than half of the market share in HuaGua. Even the Penguin’s dominant position in the gaming field has been breached by Genshin Impact. In a few years, the release of the AAA masterpiece Black Myth, Yukon will further teach the world a lesson, making those Arrogant Westerners understand what true Eastern culture and Eastern aesthetics are. The explosive release of Neza 2 has similarly shocked the global film and television market, showcasing the unique charm and profound heritage of Eastern mythological stories to the world. What is national? Is also universal. Innovation? Mixing? Wang Sikong listened, confused, and bewildered, and asked, so which company are you planning to invest in? Which company can compete with these three giants? There are too many excellent companies in various industries. However, as Wang Chen mentioned, He truly couldn’t think of any potential stock that could topple the three giants. Initially, Wang Sikong simply thought Wang Chen was young and reckless, unaware of the world’s complexities. Now it seems that Wang Chen clearly has a profound understanding of the market, otherwise, he wouldn’t have such deep analysis. Isn’t there a saying from an internet tycoon? As long as you stand at the wind outlet, even pigs can fly. Wang Chen raised. His glass, took a sip, and continued, innovation and mixing are the themes of this era, the wind outlet of this era. As long as you find the right. direction, even a pig can take off. Xinfen scratched his head and anxiously said, Wang Chen, stop keeping us in suspense. What do you mean? Wang Chen helplessly replied, from the current market analysis, the development prospects of the film and television and live streaming, e-commerce. Industries are quite good and worth digging deeper. The film industry has indeed developed well in recent years. With the development of the internet age, the star effect is becoming increasingly significant, and fan economy is becoming more outrageous. Upon hearing this, Wang Sikong said. In the past, those female stars would beg the investors for resources, casually sleeping with people, now, they hold themselves high, pretending to be aloof, which is quite disgusting. However, live streaming and e-commerce. I just can’t understand, aren’t these two industries monopolized by the leading players? 2018 was the craziest year for live streaming and e-commerce. With a massive influx of capital, this led to a wild expansion of related industries. But what followed was a chaotic operation within the industry. The government promptly issued relevant laws and regulations to rectify the disorderly conduct in these sectors. This dealt a significant blow to the related industries. In this situation, some companies seized the opportunity to rise, like a spark igniting a prairie fire. Xinfeng said, live streaming isn’t easy now, right? Old Wang’s Guabao live streaming platform invested so much money and now it’s barely hanging on. Yeah, the shareholders only care about power struggles and profits, completely indifferent to Guabao live streaming survival. I’ve been overwhelmed lately, Wang Sikong replied helplessly. The chubby guy nodded, grinning slyly, and said, how much value can these internet celebrities really generate? If I were you, with that much money, I’d rather find a few good-looking stars and shoot some small films that’s more practical. Many of my friends have invested in the film and entertainment industry, and they’ve made quite a bit over the years. I still think investing in films is more stable, Wang Chin said with a faint smile, not elaborating further. Now, in their eyes. The internet celebrities who were once looked down upon had achieved such high social status after the emergence of DY, even making it onto CCTV. Live streaming sales had created numerous sales legends. Major institutions, backed by the big tree of DY, were raking in profits. Moreover, DYS rise overseas had made Chinese culture popular both domestically and internationally, with countless companies rushing in to make a fortune in US dollars. But how many people could actually spot such opportunities? He wouldn’t look down on Wang Sikong and Qin Feng for their short-sightedness, in his past life, Wang Chen was even less than they were. What right did he have to mock them? Wang Sikong pondered for a moment, still perplexed, and could only helplessly say, brother, when you establish your investment company, don’t forget to bring your brothers along. If you need anything, just let me know. In this area of Modu, I can still have a say. Sure, just that I don’t have time right now, school is starting soon, Wang Chen replied, with a slight smile. With school approaching, he didn’t have much time to deal with the establishment of the investment company. Investing is a cautious matter, and one must be fully prepared before starting. As for why he agreed to let Wang Sikong and the others join, it was naturally because. In this relationship-oriented Hua Gua, one inevitably offends certain people. Having capable partners could help avoid unnecessary troubles. Of course, he intended to firmly hold the absolute controlling stake in the company. Alright, we’ll talk about this later. After you start school, we can. Get together, Xinfeng said, looking at Wang Chen. If it’s feasible, I’d like to chip in as well. The domestic situation might be a bit lacking, but. I still have some connections in Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan. As long as my brother can get a share, I won’t ask for much. Of course, no problem. Money is endless, we can all make it together, Wang Chen laughed heartily. Who knows, our startup might even break out of Asia and go global. Wang, Sikong and Xinfeng immediately burst into laughter. They didn’t dare to think about going global, but it didn’t stop them from dreaming of punching. double horse and kicking Wang Jianlin. Just as breakfast was nearing its end, more than a dozen bodyguards dressed in black suits, tall and imposing, approached, each carrying several specially made bank bags. The bodyguards walked straight to Wang Chen and the others, respectfully placing the bags down with a dull thud. They then uniformly stepped back to the side, standing tall and straight, eyes fixed ahead, Wang Sikong smiled as he stood up, walked over to pat one of the pockets, and said to Wang Chen, you’re so generous, we can’t be stingy either. With the 10 million you gave. that makes a total of 25 million here. Wang Chen waved his hand, a calm smile on his face, and said, last night, we all went through a life and death crisis, so this money is just to help everyone feel a bit more at ease. Money is something you can’t take with you when you die, what matters? Is that it can provide some comfort in critical times? Xiaoquan Xiangta came to rob them last night because he had bought the Yangli to die in, so. It was only right for Wang Chen to take out 10 million to share with everyone. Upon hearing this, Wang Sikong told the bodyguard beside him, take. This and distribute it to everyone, 300,000 each. Yes, boss. The bodyguards picked up the bag and moved aside to start handing out the money. The others in the private room expressed their gratitude and for a moment, the atmosphere in the banquet hall became increasingly lively. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 10 million and double cashback of 20 million is granted. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 1,000 system points. After the meal, a few people went to the parking lot. Wang Chen had already become the center of attention. Among them, with Wang Sikong and Qin Fen standing on either side. Unbeknownst to him, Wang Chen had gradually become the core of this small group. Wang Chen looked at the time and said, that’s it for today, I’ll head back first. Zhang Rou was still waiting for him at the hotel. As for Lele and Tang Tang, it was just a night of fleeting romance. Zhang Rou, whom he had nurtured himself, was the one he truly knew. Alright, Wang, Sikong said, next time, let’s gather at my bar, everyone should have a good time then. Wang Chen nodded, then opened the storage compartment of the LaFerrari, took out 400,000, and placed it in Lei Lei and Tang Tang’s arms, softly saying, I won’t see you off, each of you take 200,000 and head back. Rest well. The two girls held the cash, feeling quite disappointed, but could only obediently nod and say, okay. They had overthought things. A wealthy person like Wang Chen would never accept them, these women of the night. If they could, Lei Lei and Tang Tang would definitely want to go with Wang Chen. After all, Wang Chen was tall, handsome, skilled at gaming, and so rich, as long as they could cling to his thigh. They wouldn’t have to worry for the rest of their lives. The other girls present looked at the cash in their arms, feeling a mix of envy and schadenfreude. Seeing that Wang Chen let the two of them leave on their own, they all threw flirtatious glances at him, hoping he would notice them. If it weren’t. For the bodyguards around Wang Chen, they would have rushed over by now. Wang Chen pretended not to see. He directly opened the stylish butterfly. Doors of the La Ferrari. Then he started the car and drove towards the Tianmu Palace under the reluctant gazes of many girls. The bodyguards started the car and closely followed behind. As for the treasures Wang Chen had bought, they had already been safely delivered to the Tianmu Palace when the yacht docked. Ding. The system detected that the host spent $400,000 and double cashback of $800,000 is granted. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 40 system points. Before long, Wang Chen returned to the Tianmu Palace as soon as he set foot. Inside, he had the bodyguard stationed at the door notify Lengfeng to come over. Lengfeng walked in with a tall posture, stood at attention with a crisp salute, and said, Boss, you called for me. Wangqin stepped forward, his face full of sincerity, patted Lengfeng’s shoulder, and said with emotion, Lengfeng, everyone worked hard this time, risking their lives at sea. I’ve kept all of this in mind. Saying this, Wangqin took out his phone and quickly operated it. Lengfeng’s phone immediately rang with a notification. Wangqin smiled and said, I transferred two million to you. Take it and treat your brothers well, you decide how to handle it. Ding, the system detected that the host spent 2 million, doubling the cashback. To 4 million. Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning 200 system points. Leng Fang’s eyes turned slightly red, and he said in a hoarse voice. Boss, this is too much. The brothers are just doing their duty. Besides, I’ve already taken some from the restaurant. Wang Chen waved his hand and said, stop the nonsense. The restaurant is the restaurant, if I say you can take it, then take it. You know I’m not short on money. He understood this whole nurturing thing. Ancient clans would support a large group of retainers, providing them with good food and drink every day, without having to worry about the expenses for their children and wives at home. This would go on for years or even decades, just waiting for them to play their part at critical moments. The young master of the Wei state during the Warring States period, Lord Sheenling, was a prime example. Lord Sheenling was known for his kindness and generosity, treating his retainers with respect regardless of their background, which attracted many talented individuals. To him, such as Ho Wing, Zhu Hai, Mao Gong, and Shui Gong, these retainers would offer him advice and serve him loyally at crucial times, also, helping the Wei state recruit a large number of talents, enriching its talent pool. At its peak, there were over 3,000 retainers, and his reputation spread far and wide, causing various feudal states to refrain from easily waging war against Wei for over a decade. Unlike some company bosses today, who pay a salary of 3,000 yet expect their employees to work themselves to the bone, Wang Chen didn’t want to face any issues when he needed. his bodyguards to risk their lives one day. He had plenty of money. But life, there was only one. Lung Fong straightened his posture, brought his feet together, and with a bang, saluted with a standard military salute. However, his raised right arm trembled slightly, revealing the turmoil within him. He looked directly into Wang Chen’s eyes and said, Boss, thank you on behalf of the brothers. Our Wolf Fong squad will follow you, and we will not hesitate to go through fire and water for you. Lung Fong, don’t be so formal with me. I’ve seen everything along the way, and I remember it. All, Wang Chen said, gently patting his shoulder. Wang Chen’s gaze deepened, and his tone became increasingly sincere, money is just an external thing. To me, the friendship of my brothers is far more precious. I’m giving everyone this money not for any other reason, but to let the brothers know that following me, Wang Chen, there will be rewards for contributions. I will never treat any true loyal person unfairly. After saying this, Wang Chen patted Lung Fang’s shoulder again with more force. Yes, boss, I’ll take my leave now. Go ahead. Lungfong saluted again and then left the room. Honey, what happened? Wang Chen turned to see Zhang Rou slowly walking out of the bedroom. She was wearing a plain silk robe, her long hair loosely draped over her shoulders, her face still showing signs of sleepiness, but her eyes were filled with concern. Zhang Rou quickly walked up to Wang Chen, gently wrapping her arms around his, looking up at him with worry in her eyes, and softly asked, I just woke up and heard you return from the sea. Did anything happen on the way? I saw the bodyguards had injuries. Seeing her like this warmed Wang Chen’s heart. He reached out and gently. Stroked her cheek, saying softly, it’s nothing, just encountered a little storm, but it was resolved smoothly. You don’t need to worry. Was it? Really just a little storm? Don’t hide anything from me, Zhang Rou frowned slightly, clearly not fully convinced, and pressed further. Wang Chen. Smiled and pulled her into his embrace, resting his chin on the top of her head, softly reassuring her, really, would I lie to you? Zhang Rou gently. Nodded in his arms, feeling a bit more at ease. Wang Chen gently cupped her face and leaned down to kiss her. Zhang Rou let out a soft moan, her body, trembling slightly, and the desire in her eyes grew stronger. She stood on her tiptoes, actively offering her lips. Wang Chen responded passionately. Their tongues intertwining, and their breaths became increasingly rapid, Wang Chen picked her up and strode towards the master bedroom, gently placing her down before leaning in to kiss her again, leaving a trail of fiery marks from her cheek to her neck. Zhang Rou clutched the bedsheet tightly, her. back arching slightly, her legs instinctively wrapping around Wang Chen as she murmured, hubby. Wang Chen’s hands roamed over her body, each touch, eliciting soft gasps from her. The two were immersed in this passionate moment, releasing the longing and affection that had built up over the past few days, the room filled with an ambiguous and enchanting atmosphere. The headboard swayed lightly. After a long while, they gradually returned. To calm. As night fell, the pool at the Tianmu Palace was illuminated, shimmering with light. The water in the pool was comfortably warm, and Wang. Chen lounged in it, savoring this rare moment of relaxation. At that moment, Zhang Rou swam over from one side of the pool, wearing a red swimsuit, that perfectly accentuated her curvaceous figure. She surfaced beside Wang Chen, shaking her head playfully, a mischievous smile on her face. Wang. Chen, come down and swim for a bit. Zhang Rou giggled, her eyes sparkling as she gazed at Wang Chen. Wang Chen smiled and shook his head, his gaze. Lingering on her, then said, I’ll soak for a while, you swim by yourself. I can’t bear to miss such a beautiful scene. Hearing this, Zhang Rou’s face, flushed slightly, her eyes revealing a hint of shyness. She straightened up, gracefully spinning in the water to showcase her elegant figure. Then you. Better enjoy it. Wangchen nodded, watching Zhang Rou swim freely in the water. He then called out to the system. System, open personal panel. Host, Wangchen age, 20 height, 188 charm, 92 physique, 120, normal human limit is 100, stamina, 120, normal human limit is 100, entries, double. Cashback, effect, all reasonable expenses will be refunded double. Extreme physique, effect, from this moment on, you are the pinnacle of human. Physique. Solidification, effect. Eye of truth, effect. Soul of the machine delighted, effect, points, 888, 627. Hua Xia coins. 15973, 207894.Wang Chen’s gaze swept over the string of Hua Xia coins on his personal panel, and he couldn’t help but feel a surge of astonishment. Nearly 16 billion in cash. In 2018, I can also be considered the cash king of the magic city, Wang Chen murmured to himself. The double cash back he received after each expenditure had caused his wealth to grow exponentially. He believed that in the near future, his cash would surpass that of the online cash king from Beijing. Then, Wang Chen looked at the impressive 880,000 points and summoned the high-level roulette. Instantly, a dazzling golden light erupted from the system’s screen, flickering continuously, a mysterious aura spreading, creating a solemn and boundless atmosphere. As the light dimmed, an ancient and mysterious roulette appeared before him, spinning continuously. Wang Chen’s eyes were once again stung by the intense light, and he couldn’t help but complain, damn, this special effect is still so exaggerated, can’t it be changed? System, do a 10 consecutive. Draws. As soon as Wang Chen’s voice fell, the golden roulette began to spin rapidly. The golden light flickered erratically, and as the roulette slowly came to a stop, only a few patterns remained shining with golden light. Ding. Consumed 100 ,000 points, the system begins the lottery. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have won 1 billion Hua Xia coins. Thank you for your patronage. Ding.

However, he did get three limited edition sports cars, which provided him with some psychological comfort. It could be considered as collecting the three phantom gods. System, let me go all in. Consuming 780,000 points, the system begins the lottery. The golden roulette in front of him slowly started to spin again, radiating brilliance.

From now on, even the most beautiful women would fall at his feet. Memory Master allowed him to have an impeccable memory. Events from his past life would be deeply etched in his mind, and Wang Chen no longer had to worry about forgetting. This entry was crucial for his future. Investment company. As four king of games and basketball star, they were even more impressive. If an ordinary person obtained these two entries, they could dominate in those fields and become the brightest stars. Unfortunately, these two entries were dispensable for Wang Chen. With a staggering 30 billion in his bank account, he certainly couldn’t become a basketball star or stream games. However, these entries might come in handy in other. aspects. Who knows when they might prove their worth Wang Chen’s mind flashed with various scenes from his past life, those experiences, and memories. Surging like a tide, making his thoughts increasingly active. He stared at the information on the system panel, contemplating his plans for the future. In particular, there was still a 1% stake in Penguin. After that, Wang Chen put away the system panel and turned his gaze to Zhang Rou, who was. Still playing in the pool. Zhang Rou swam gracefully in the water. Her red swimsuit looked particularly enchanting under the lights, her figure light. and graceful, with delicate curves, her skin shimmering with a crystalline glow in the water. Wang Chen dove into the water with a splash quickly, swimming towards Zhang Rou. When Zhang Rou saw Wang Chen coming, a sweet smile appeared on her face. She swam to Wang Chen’s side, wrapped her arms around his neck and said with a hint of confusion, Darling, what were you thinking just now? I feel like you’ve become even more handsome. Wang Chen smiled slightly, kissed her cheek, and said, Nothing, just thinking about some things. But now, I want to explore something more interesting with you. With that, Wang Chen gently kissed Zhang Rou’s soft lips, and she closed her eyes, responding passionately to him. The two embraced tightly in the water, their bodies swaying gently with the waves. Wang Chen’s hands slowly slid towards her swimsuit, his fingers gently probing the edge of the fabric, feeling the warmth of her skin. Then, Wang Chen gently led Zhang Rou to the edge of the pool, letting her lean against the wall. Wang Chen felt the buoyancy and resistance brought by the water, and he couldn’t help but marvel inwardly at the unique sensations one could experience in the water. Water splashed everywhere, passion surged. Another sleepless night. September 6, 2018. Today was the day of the new semester at the Shanghai Financial University. As a 211 university, Shanghai Financial University attracted countless talented individuals to study here. At this moment, the school gate was bustling with people. Many freshmen, accompanied by their parents, crowded at the registration area. Luxury cars were everywhere. Lamborghinis, Bentleys, Mercedes, Porsches. Some students were dropped off by their parents in luxury cars, exuding an air of pride and indifference. Most of these were locals from Shanghai. There were also some students who arrived alone, dragging their suitcases from out of town to register. Hi. School is a relatively simple period in life. Once in college, from the moment of registration, the concept of social class becomes clear. College is a complex micro-society and very few people can handle all aspects perfectly. At this time, Zhao Siyuan, at the freshman reception desk at the Schoolgate, was welcoming the new students. Her hair was tied in a high ponytail and she wore a white casual outfit. On her feet were a pair of white canvas shoes, ordinary in appearance but radiating youthful vitality. Siyuan, look over there. There’s a freshman driving a Ferrari, her friend. Lu Meng said excitedly, shaking her arm. No matter how you look at it, a Ferrari costs millions and for a freshman to drive one indicates that their family must be well off. Seeing that it had a local Shanghai license plate made Lu Meng even more excited. She eagerly awaited the arrival of this freshman to welcome them, hoping to take the opportunity to add them on fae xin. Nyo Ben, pulling a suitcase and carrying a box of fruit and roast chicken, instinctively glanced at the Ferrari parked by the roadside. Not for any other reason but to appreciate the charm of a supercar, the allure of a supercar for men is just that strong. There were many luxury cars parked at the entrance of the university, but those who could drive a Ferrari were few and far between. Many girls on the scene were attracted by the Ferrari, wanting to see what this student looked like. A few self-proclaimed. Pretty senior sisters even took the initiative to step forward, ready to get to know this classmate driving the Ferrari. Zhang Haoran, wearing sunglasses, stepped out of the car with an air of arrogance. As a local from Shanghai, driving a Ferrari to school gave him an inexplicable sense of nobility.He looked around, feeling the weight of everyone’s gaze upon him, which made him feel a bit light-headed. Zhang Haoran stood by the car, watching. The youthful and beautiful senior sisters, waiting for them to come over and ask for his contact information. Hey, old Nyo, you came so early. Nyo. Ben felt a heavy blow from behind, causing him to cough repeatedly. Turning around, he saw his brother Guachuenching and couldn’t help but angrily say, What are you doing, big guy? Guachuenching scratched his head and replied, I saw you looking so seriously, thought I’d scare you a bit. Bang. A loud noise rang out. Nyo Ben’s suitcase, fruits, and roast chicken all fell onto the Ferrari. He instinctively let go of what he was holding after. Huichu and Xing elbowed him, and dozens of pounds of luggage rolled down the slanted road. It crashed into the Ferrari’s door. The tremendous impact left. Marks on the car door, and the roast chicken spilled all over the car, covered in grease. Damn it! Whose roast chicken is this? Step forward! John Howran shouted angrily, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at his beloved car in such a state. This Ferrari Portofino was a special reward from his father for getting into the prestigious Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. Although it was just a second-hand car, he cherished it. immensely. He drove it everywhere, even to buy groceries. Thanks to this Ferrari Portofino, he had charmed quite a few girls over the summer, feeling like he had reached the pinnacle of his life. Now, however, his beloved car was damaged and it was covered in grease, which made Jiang Haoran furious. That idiot, step forward. This is quite a hit, it must cost a lot to repair, right? What a pity for this roast chicken, it was too delicious. Who says it isn’t? Such a waste of roast chicken. Isn’t this roast chicken important? The parents and new students around watched the Disaster unfold, murmuring among themselves. Nyo Ben didn’t have time to mourn his roast chicken, he only knew he was in deep trouble. This was a. Ferrari. How much would he have to pay for repairs? Nyo Ben came from a poor county in Henan province, and his family’s financial situation wasn’t. Great. He had to work part-time during his spare time just to cover more than half of his living expenses for a year in college. Coming back to his. Senses, Nyo Ben walked up to Jiang Haorun with a dejected expression and helplessly said, the luggage and roast chicken are mine, you see how much. It costs to repair the car. I’ll pay you back. Pay? Can you afford it? John Haurin grabbed Neoban by the collar, shouting angrily, this is a Ferrari Portofino, it costs millions. You poor loser, can you afford it? Hurry up and contact your friends and parents, you can’t afford the repair. Costs? Boom. Neoban felt a wave of dizziness wash over him. Why did he have to encounter such a thing? A luxury car worth millions, the repair costs, would definitely be high. How could he pay? It’s fine. The big guy stepped forward and said seriously, this is mainly my responsibility, I’ll take care of the compensation. You. Nyo Ben stood there helplessly, feeling even more dizzy. Huo Chuanqing, standing at 6 feet 3 inches tall and, built like a tank, was known as the big guy. Despite his imposing appearance, he was the top scorer in their county’s college entrance examination. And smoothly got into the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. His family’s situation wasn’t much better than Nyo Ben’s, what could he use to compensate? Some ants who couldn’t bear to watch spoke up, kid, you seem educated, you can’t extort people. This is just a minor scratch, it won’t cost much. Yeah, I think we should call the police first. It’s just a small matter, how can you drive a Ferrari without a bit of tolerance? I think the compensation will be just a few thousand. Zhang Haoran became even angrier upon hearing the discussions from the ants around him. He said furiously, you don’t know anything. This is a Ferrari Portofino, do you understand? This car costs several million to buy, and you’re just talking nonsense without knowing anything. Someone knowledgeable in the crowd remarked, this car is obviously secondhand, it’s not worth millions, at most one or two million. I don’t care, you have to compensate me 30 ,000 for the repair costs. Zhang Haoran said, exasperated. Nyo Ben, who wasn’t very knowledgeable about cars, felt like the sky was falling when he heard about the 30,000 compensation. 30,000? Even selling him wouldn’t cover it. Nyo Ben helplessly said, how about this, let’s have someone come and assess the damage, whatever the cost. I’ll pay you even if I have to sell everything I own. Although he didn’t understand cars, he wasn’t about to believe John Howron’s arbitrary figure. It needed a professional assessment. I don’t care, you owe me $30,000 for the repair costs or I’ll call your parents. John Howron said, throwing a tantrum. This was the supercar he had worked so hard to own and he was always careful when driving it. He wanted to take this opportunity to extort him. Boom. Boom. Boom. Suddenly, a roar of engine sounds erupted, deafening. Amidst the roar of the engine, a stunning platinum colored. Apollo I .E. approached from afar. Under the sunlight, it attracted countless gazes. The gradient white paint shimmered with golden hues from different angles, the streamlined body, and the racing wing at the back were filled with aesthetic lines, resembling a graceful dancer. The powerful sound. Waves of the engine roared like a fierce beast, firmly capturing everyone’s attention. This was the world-class supercar that Wang Chen had won in a lottery, the Apollo IE limited to only 10 units worldwide, each costing over 20 million. It was highly collectible, a luxury car that even the wealthy couldn’t easily acquire. Even though there were countless luxury cars on site, they all paled in comparison to the Apollo i.e. John Horan’s. Ferrari Portofino was even less comparable. He looked at the speeding Apollo i.e., his eyes filled with deep envy. This was a supercar. What was his? Ferrari in front of it? The light of a firefly could not compare to the brightness of the full moon. Wow, what car is this? And it has the license plate 88888 from Magic City. Apollo i .e., starting price over 20 million. Over 20 million? So expensive. In Magic City, you could. Buy a large flat for that. Only someone extraordinary can drive an Apollo IE, if I remember correctly, there are only 10 units worldwide. This must be a super big shot, it can’t be a newcomer, right? Who in their right mind would drive this car? Amidst the envious gazes at the scene, the doors of the platinum-colored Apollo IE slowly opened, resembling the wings of a soaring seagull. This was its unique gullwing design. After the doors fully lifted, Wang Chin stepped out of the car with a calm expression. He wore a black Gavinci short -sleeved t-shirt paired with. black straight-leg jeans from Acne Studios, making his legs look long and straight. On his feet were classic black and white checkered Vans sneakers, simple yet stylish with black laces. On his wrist was a Vacheron Constantine 6620C with an exquisite dial adorned with dazzling diamonds, shining, brilliantly under the sunlight. He looked vibrant and full of youthful energy. More importantly, handsome and wealthy. After the recent gunfight and the increasing balance in his bank account, a calm aura naturally emanated from him. He had already shed the loser vibe from his past life. As soon as he got out of the car, he spotted his college roommate from his previous life and walked over, saying, La Nyo, big guy, what are you up to? Damn. Wang Chen, is that really you? Nyo Ben rubbed his eyes, uncertainly saying, when did you start driving a supercar? I can’t believe this is you. I’m not pretending anymore, I’m coming clean, I’m a rich second generation, Wang Chen shrugged and said. This life’s trajectory was exactly that. Same as in his previous life, his roommates all thought he was an ordinary person, so it was no wonder Nyo Ben couldn’t believe it. No way, buddy. The big guy said, somewhat incredulously, if you’re a rich second generation, can we still have fun together? That’s not a problem, it’s just like before. What’s going on with you guys? Wang Chen smiled helplessly and said. Upon hearing this, Nyo Ben looked a bit dejected and said, I left my suitcase on his car. It got scratched, and he insists on 30,000 for repairs, he’s causing a scene right now. Wang Chen glanced over, it was a 2017 Ferrari model. There was a small dent by the door, and a bit of paint had chipped. Off. And he dares to ask for 30,000? The new price for a 2017 Ferrari Portofino was only 2 ,600,000. John Howran had already envied Wang Chan’s Apollo i.e. seeing that Wang Chan was still friends with Neil Ben and looked so handsome, he couldn’t help but feel even angrier. You’re his friend, right? I see you drive a nice car, why don’t you pay him the 30,000? A poor guy has friends like this. Consider yourself lucky, or you won’t be leaving today. John Howran’s crazy words drew discontented murmurs from many people present. Several antis frowned, showing their dissatisfaction with John Howran’s. foul-mouthed and began to criticize him. Meanwhile, Zhao Siyuan, watching everything from a distance, showed a look of surprise and whispered, is it him? After assessing the situation, Wang Chen turned his gaze to Zhang Haoran and slowly said, this car, is it yours? Faced with Wang Chen, who was driving the Apollo IE, Zhang Haoran felt a bit intimidated by his presence but in front of so many people, he couldn’t back down. Otherwise, his four years of college would become a laughingstock and he wouldn’t be able to hold his head high. It’s mine, what’s it to you? Zhang Haoran retorted defiantly. Then he looked at Nyo Ben and Guichuan Xing, shouting, what are you two pretending for? You damaged my car and still want to play tricks? Hurry up and pay. After saying that, he reached out to grab Nyo Ben’s collar again. The big guy, seeing this, pushed his hand away, causing Jiang Haoran to stumble back uncontrollably. Wang Xin said sternly, you dare to ask for 30,000 for a mere Ferrari Portofino? You really have some guts, bullying my friend. Jiang Haoran, immediately became furious, saying, what’s wrong with my car? This is a new car I just picked up and I’ve only had it for less than a month, asking for 30,000 is reasonable, considering it’s for your friend sake, let’s be friends and settle for 20,000, Zhang Haoran, seeing Wang Chen’s Apollo i.e. realized this person was either rich or noble and he felt a bit intimidated so he voluntarily lowered the price by 10,000. Wang Chen saw that he still dared to ask for so much, looked down and glanced around. He casually picked up a pebble from the ground and smashed it directly onto the Ferrari’s front hood. Already dirty Ferrari looked even more like a secondhand car now. Wang Chen clapped his hands and smiled with satisfaction, saying, now it’s worth 20,000. You’re going too far. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen’s smile slowly faded, and he said, I’m just bullying you, so what? Just wait, this isn’t over, I’m calling the police. Calling the police? Ha, I’ll be waiting. Wang Chen waved his hand behind him. The bodyguard, who had been secretly protecting Wang Chen immediately rushed forward, coldly saying, boss, what are your orders? Smash this car for me. what the hell so arrogant upon hearing this lung phone did not hesitate pulling out a baton from his waist and directly smashing it against the ferrari in front of him the other bodyguards were equally ruthless their batons relentlessly striking the ferrari the sounds of shattering glass and twisting metal intertwined echoing through the air jung harun looked at the bodyguard in a black suit his legs going weak and with a thud he knelt on the ground his hands trembling uncontrollably tears streaming down his face He pleaded, stop smashing it, please, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have asked for such an outrageous amount, I won’t dare again. Before long, the originally sleek Ferrari Portofino was left. Unrecognizable, its body dented, parts scattered everywhere, the whole car looking like a pile of scrap metal. Wang Chen looked at the battered Ferrari Portofino before him and smiled faintly. He turned back to the car, took out 500,000 in cash, and threw it on the ground, coldly saying, this is for the repair costs, take it. If there’s anything else in the future, feel free to come find me, I’m Wang Chen. But you’d. Better think carefully about the consequences of provoking me. Zhang Haoran trembled as he picked up the money from the ground, his eyes filled with fear and regret. He lowered his head, not daring to meet Wang Chen’s gaze, stammering, I understand, I won’t dare again. Even if Zhang Haoran had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to retaliate against Wang Chen. He knew very well that someone like Wang Chen, a rich second generation, had countless ways to deal with him. If he angered Wang Chen, who knows, there might be a body floating in the Huangpu River by tomorrow. At this moment, he felt deep regret, wishing he hadn’t been greedy, and asked for an exorbitant repair fee of 300,000. Regretful indeed. Ding. The system has detected that the host spent 500,000, double cashback of 1 million. Ding. Congratulations. To the host for obtaining 50 system points. Having money is a person’s greatest confidence. With 3 billion lying in his bank account, the daily interest alone was several million. Not to mention just one Ferrari. Portofino, even if it were a hundred or two hundred, Wang Chen would smash them without hesitation. This is so cool. So reassuring, he’s overflowing with boyfriend energy. Is he a freshman too? So the domineering. CEOs and novels really exist, I’m in love. I can’t even look, so handsome and rich, my legs are weak. The surrounding girls were filled with admiration for Wang Chen, wishing he could be their boyfriend. Which girl would refuse Wang Chen as her boyfriend? He was handsome, rich, and a tall guy at 188, he might even be great at poker. Nyo Ben looked at Wang Chen with gratitude, his heart full of emotion but also a bit uneasy. He tightly grasped Wang Chen’s hand and said, Wang Chen, thank you so much, I didn’t know what to do. I will find a way to pay you back the 500,000. Wang Chen gestured for the bodyguards to step back, smiling as he patted Nyo Ben’s shoulder, casually saying, old Nyo, don’t be so formal, we’re brothers, this amount of money is nothing. Don’t forget, I’m a rich second generation. Nyo Ben shook his head, sighed, and said firmly, no, I must pay this money back, I can’t accept your help for nothing. I know you’re a rich second generation and don’t lack this money, but it’s my principle. Alright, if you want to pay it back, then go ahead, but there’s no rush. We can talk about it after you graduate, Wang Chen said with a helpless smile. In his previous life, after graduating from university, Nyo Ben stayed in the magic. City like Wang Chen, living a life like a workhorse, unable to finish the pie drawn by the boss. After wasting a few years, resigned to his fate, Nyo Ben could only return to his hometown in the county. The current Nyo. Ben was still full of innocence, after thinking that as a top student from the Financial University of Magic City, earning 500 ,000 would be a piece of cake after graduation, the young man was filled with youthful arrogance. But now, as spring faded away, he was left with a sense of desolation. It could be said that fate was playing tricks on him. At that moment, Zhao Siyuan walked up to Wang Chen with a smile and said, Mr. Wang, we meet again. Are you here to register as a new student? Wang Chen turned to look, surprised, and said, What are you doing here? Are you also here to register as a new student? Zhao Siyuan smiled brightly and said, I’m a student at the financial university, in my fourth year now, so I’m your senior. Wang Chen suddenly felt that fate was truly remarkable. After their last encounter at the Vacheron Constantine store, they hadn’t been in touch and he never expected to run into her here today. However, Wang Chen couldn’t recall any information about her from his past life. Logically speaking, someone as beautiful as Zhao. Siyuan should be quite famous at the financial university. I really didn’t expect to meet you here, it’s such a coincidence, Wang Chen exclaimed. I’m a third-year student, so I really should call you senior. And, please don’t call me Mr. Wang, just call me Wang Chen. Zhao Siyuan said regretfully, I didn’t realize you were already a third -year student. I was still thinking of helping you with your enrollment procedures. After saying that, Zhao Siyuan playfully stuck out her tongue. Wang Chen looked at Zhao Siyuan who had her hair tied up in a high ponytail and was dressed in a white casual outfit. She appeared spirited and graceful. Name. Zhao Siyuan, age, 21, height, 175 centimeters, charm, 96, physique, 91, affection, 65, skills, advanced santa, intermediate Wing Chun, advanced accounting. Wang Chin noticed that his affection level had risen to 65 points and couldn’t help but nod. After our last parting, we agreed to keep in touch, but you didn’t contact me, Zhao Siyuan said with a hint of grievance in her eyes. Wang Chin smiled awkwardly, Zhao Siyuan hadn’t been this proactive last time. Could it be that the entry Enchantress Reborn was taking effect? Wang Chen rubbed his nose and said awkwardly, I’ve been quite busy lately. Let me know when you have time, and I’ll treat you to a meal. Zhao Siyuan immediately beamed, saying, that’s a promise, don’t go back on your word. Wang Chen replied earnestly, no problem. I’ll remember that, Zhao Siyuan said, taking the lead. I’ll be off. Now, I still need to welcome the new students. Alright. Wang Chen returned to the dormitory he had lived in for two years with Nyo Ben and the tall guy. Looking at the familiar dormitory, Wang Chen smiled slightly, and then walked inside. Sunlight streamed through the window, making the dorm bright and spacious. The floor had been cleaned spotless and there were four wooden beds arranged inside, each with light blue sheets and blankets. As soon as the tall guy entered, he exclaimed finally back. After sitting on the bus for a whole day, our dorm is the most comfortable. Nyo Ben tossed his luggage onto the bed and plopped down, laughing. Look, the dorm has already been cleaned. Old Zhang must have arrived early. Just then, the dorm door swung open and a slender boy walked in. His bright eyes sparkled and a cheerful smile hung beneath his prominent. nose. He was the last roommate, Zhengjin, who immediately said loudly, wow, just as I finished cleaning, you guys came back. Wangchen stood up with a smile, patted Zhengjin on the shoulder, and said, old Zhang, you’ve worked hard. I’ll treat you to a meal in the cafeteria later. Zhengjin chuckled and replied, dude, you’re so generous, treating us in the cafeteria. The tall guy suddenly stood up and said, let’s go out for a meal tonight to celebrate the start of the new semester. Nyo Ben quickly nodded, and Zhengjin excitedly said, sounds good. Let’s just make do with lunch in the cafeteria. I know a hot pot place near the school that’s really good, let’s go there for dinner. After discussing, the group tidied up and prepared to head out. Nyo Ben suddenly remembered something and said, by the way, our dorm is still short on some daily necessities. Let’s buy some when we pass by the supermarket later. Wang Chen nodded and said, I probably won’t be living in the dorm this semester. What’s wrong? Jung Jin asked, puzzled. Nyo Ben laughed heartily. And said, old Jung, you still don’t know, right? Wang Chen has been hiding it from us for two years, this guy is actually a rich second generation. His information must have gone viral on the campus network by now. After hearing this, Zhang Zhen, with a look of surprise, took out his phone and opened the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics campus network. Sure enough, on the homepage’s campus hot topics section, there was a video and images of Wang Chen having his car smashed by bodyguards, accompanied by an eye-catching title, shocking. Our school’s mysterious rich second generation throws money around, luxury car turned to, scrap. In the video, Wang Chen stood among a group of bodyguards, calmly watching as a Ferrari was smashed, surrounded by students screaming and cheering. The images captured this shocking scene from various angles. There was Wang Chen’s handsome profile, the Ferrari that was utterly destroyed, and the starry-eyed expressions of the girls around. The comments below the post exploded, Wow, this is too handsome. I wish I could. Know him. I didn’t expect our school had such a super rich second generation, how did we not notice before? Shocking. On the first day of school, a rich second generation angrily smashes a Ferrari. Shocking. The Ferrari guy boasts about the exorbitant repair costs. Please, what’s the contact info for this handsome guy? Local license plate from Magic City, and it’s a 5-8’s leopard number. Who is this person? On the campus network of Magic City University of Finance, various posts were flying around, and with it being the start of the school season, the attention was even higher. In this era of such advanced technology, in just a short while, Wang Chen’s photos and videos spread across the forum. Tens of millions of Apollo i.e. the local license plate of Magic A888888. the bodyguards he carries, the millions worth of Ferrari smashed. Just like that, all of these showcased Wang Chen’s identity and status. Many students were speculating about Wang Chen’s background. Some online claimed that Wang Chen was the son of a chairman of an internet company who had previously kept a low profile. Now that the Dragon King has returned, he intends to reclaim everything he lost. Others said Wang Chen was the illegitimate son of a powerful family, a noble born to privilege beyond compare. Some even claimed he was from a hidden aristocracy, wealthy enough to rival nations, with a family fortune that could buy the entire pickled vegetable country. The more they talked, the more outrageous it became. Countless female students wanted to get to know this handsome and wealthy rich second generation. So handsome and rich, am I dreaming? How could such a perfect person exist? Driving a Ferrari and still trying to show off in front of my idol, pure nouveau riche. Who has my idol’s face in? I’ll pay a high price for it. As more posts appeared, Wang Chin quickly stirred up a storm among the female. Students. Some girls even offered high rewards to get Wang Chen’s contact information. I declare, Wang Chen is our Magic City University of Finance’s number one male idol, who opposes? Who supports? I agree. Anyone. But Wang Chen is the campus heartthrob, I oppose. It was only the first day of school. Wang Chen had already become the universally recognized most handsome male idol of the university. Zheng Zhen watched while. Reading a few comments aloud, his face filled with shock. Wow, Apollo i.e., what kind of luxury car is this? I’ve never even heard of it. Then he turned to Wang Chen, his eyes filled with teasing and envy, saying, Wang Chen, you’ve become a campus celebrity now. Look at these comments, all praising you, and so many girls want to add you on Feixin. The big guy also leaned over, looking at the phone screen, laughing and saying, if I could drive a car like that, picking up girls would be a piece of cake. Wang Chen waved his hand and said helplessly, I didn’t expect it to turn out like this. I just wanted to help Nyo Ben vent his frustrations, but who knew it would get recorded and posted online. Alright, Wang Chen, you usually seem so low-key. I didn’t expect you to be a hidden rich second generation, Zheng Chen said with a smile as he closed his phone. But tonight’s dinner, you promised to treat us, right? Let’s consider it a celebration for your newfound fame. Sure, sure. The group burst into laughter and then walked out of the dormitory together, heading to the cafeteria for lunch. Although Zheng Chen’s family wasn’t particularly wealthy, his father worked in the education and training industry, they had saved up a considerable amount over the years. As for Wang Chen being. A rich second generation, he felt envious but not to the point of jealousy, he was just happy that his brother was well off. It was a source of pride for him. In his past life, Wang Chen had a good relationship with. These roommates, unlike the scheming dynamics often found in female dormitories. Unfortunately, after graduating from university and entering society, they gradually lost contact. At this moment in the girls. Dormitory. Come quick, there’s a guy named Wang Chen driving an Apollo IE to school and his license plate is MOA 88888. He’s so handsome. A girl with an ordinary appearance and a sturdy build excitedly said to the other girls in the dorm while holding her phone. I saw it too, he really is handsome. I have no chance, a guy like that wouldn’t look at me. The other girls in the dorm chimed in. One girl, who was average in looks. And figure, said, no way, starting today, I need to lose weight. Another girl dreamily remarked, if only Wang Chen would notice me, then I could marry him and never worry again. Don’t dream, with looks like yours. Do you think Wang Chen would notice you? If it were Ning Shuang, maybe she’d have a chance. The dorm fell silent. All eyes turned to a girl sitting quietly in the corner, who hadn’t spoken. Ning Shuang, have you seen the post on the forum? The girl named Ning Shuang was sitting quietly on her bed, looking at her phone. Her long, jet black hair cascaded casually over her shoulders. Her skin was as delicate as snow, glowing faintly pink under the light, resembling freshly bloomed petals. Her eyebrows were like ink, and her bright eyes sparkled like stars in the night sky filled with liveliness and clarity, below her high nose. was a pair of slightly pouted lips, cherry red and inviting, making one want to kiss them gently. She wore a light blue nightgown, the loose neckline slightly open, revealing her delicate collarbone. Hearing the question, Ning Shuang put down her phone and said lightly, I saw it too, he really is quite handsome. As she spoke, she got off the bed and stretched her body. Instantly, her curvy figure was fully revealed, making the other girls in the dorm envious. Although the other three girls had seen it many times, they were still captivated by her beauty. The sturdy girl said, Ning Shuang, if it were you, I believe Wang Chin wouldn’t refuse. Yeah, Ning Shuang, with your looks and figure, even we girls envy you. If Wang Chin saw you, he might even pursue you actively. Ning Shuang smiled slightly and didn’t say much more. She turned to grab a change of clothes and went to the bathroom to freshen up. In a little while, Ning Shuang emerged in a new outfit. She wore a white short-sleeved top paired with a necklace that highlighted her delicate collarbone. The outfit was particularly eye-catching. On the bottom, she wore a black short skirt and white sneakers, showcasing her long, straight, fair legs to perfection. Pure yet alluring. Just standing there, even with just light makeup. Ning Shuang surpassed 99% of the beauties in the world. The phrases as beautiful as the moon and like a fish falling from the sky were no longer sufficient to describe her beauty. Ning Shuang, it’s so hot outside. Where are you going? Her roommates asked curiously as Ren Ning Shuang dressed up and prepared to go out. She usually never leaves the dorm in this kind of weather. Hearing this, Ran Ning Shuang replied lightly, I’ve been cooped up in the dorm all day, I want to go out for a walk. Isn’t today the day for new students to check in? If we wait too long, the cafeteria will probably be packed with freshmen. I want to go eat early too. Avoid the crowd later. That’s right. Today is the day for new students, I can’t imagine how crowded the cafeteria will be. Upon hearing this, a plain looking girl hurriedly changed her clothes, ready to go eat. With Ran Ning Shuang. I’ll go too, maybe I can see Wang Chen in the cafeteria. That’s not certain, with his wealth, how could he possibly eat in the cafeteria? He can’t just stay in the dorm all the time, he must. Go out sometimes. Even if he’s not in the cafeteria, we could run into him on campus, and then I’ll pretend to trip and fall, and take the chance to add my idol on Fei xan, hee hee. Hey, it’s broad daylight. Stop daydreaming, who knows how many women are eyeing your idol, you don’t stand a chance. You never know, what if the idol likes someone like me? The other two roommates changed their clothes, preparing to go out. With Ran Ning Shuang. Ran Ningxuan leaned against the dormitory door, listening to their frivolous chatter, lost in thought. After a while, the corners of her rosy lips slightly curled up, a mysterious smile appearing on her face. Wang Chen and his friends walked through the campus of the financial university. On the path, girls walked in pairs, their fair long legs visible everywhere, and those pairs of white legs looked particularly elongated against the backdrop of white sneakers, brimming with youthful vitality. Their faces radiated bright smiles, occasionally bursting into melodious laughter. Having been reborn and returned to his alma mater, Wang Chen’s mindset was completely different. University life is wonderful, this is the last joyful time in life. Carefree, with no worries other than studying. After graduating in four years, stepping into society, one will feel the harshness of the world. The boss’s arbitrary exploitation and oppression, it’s everywhere. No matter how many companies you switch to, it’s always the same. The essence of capitalism is to save every bit of cost and reap more profit. Wang Chen had a deep understanding of this from his past life. Although he no longer had these worries in this life, he still wanted to fully experience university life. University life is so good, it shouldn’t be wasted. Soon, they arrived at the cafeteria. Wang Chen ordered a few familiar dishes at the window, preparing to reminisce about the bitterness he hadn’t tasted in over a decade. It cost a total of 35 yuan. Wang Chen and Nyo Ban got their dishes and found an empty table to sit down and eat. Just as he took a bite of the braised pork, Wang Chen was instantly speechless, saying, Damn, how is it still this bad? The familiar taste, the familiar recipe. It was exactly the same as he remembered. Wang Chen, having lived again, couldn’t understand how the ingredients could be made so unappetizing. Is cooking really that difficult? They say the school cafeteria wastes so much food every day, urging everyone to save. Wang Chen felt that making the ingredients taste this bad was the biggest waste, if they just hired a good chef, would these students still leave food on their plates? I think it’s okay, pretty good, Nyo Ben said nonchalantly, devouring the food on his plate. Four kids from poor families, the taste of the food doesn’t matter, as long as they can fill their stomachs, that’s enough. The tall guy smiled broadly and proudly said, as long as there’s fried chicken, I’m happy, I just love fried chicken. Just eat a little. We’ll have something good for dinner, Zhengjin said helplessly. Wangjin took a few bites and helplessly put down his chopsticks, feeling nauseated, preparing to go out for a bite later. Suddenly, a commotion erupted at the entrance of the cafeteria. Many people stopped eating and looked towards the door .A girl stood at the entrance of the cafeteria, accompanied by three friends. A pair of long, graceful legs immediately caught Wang Chen’s eye, and the three girls beside her looked like green leaves next to a beautiful flower, making her stand out even more. In terms of both temperament and attire, she was the most beautiful girl Wang Chen had ever seen. However, her expression was somewhat cold, making it hard for anyone to approach her. Wang Chen activated his true eye, and her personal information appeared on the system panel, name, Ren Ning Shang H. 23 height, 172 cm charm, 98 physique, 90 favorability, 70 skills, advanced yoga, advanced dance, advanced business English, intermediate singing, who is she? She’s so beautiful, a curious new student. Asked. You don’t know her? You must be a freshman, a boy excitedly replied. This is Ren Ningxion, the top beauty at our university for three consecutive years. She’s the goddess of the entire school, a senior. This year. Since her freshman year, she has been recognized as the top beauty by all students, and her cold temperament has kept countless boys and girls awake at night. I heard her family isn’t well off, and she’s been working part-time. Over the three years of college, countless rich second-generation heirs have pursued her, but she has never agreed. It’s said she can do everything, excels at dancing and singing, and performs at the freshman gala every year. I’m in love, I must pursue her. Many freshmen fell into fantasies, gazing obsessively at Ren Ningxiong. She stood at the entrance of the cafeteria, peering inside. Ningxiong, why aren’t you going in? Her roommate asked in confusion. Suddenly, Ren Ningxiong’s gaze stopped at a certain spot. She then walked over. A boy looked around, pointed at himself and excitedly said, is the goddess here to find me? Ahem. Ahem. He nervously cleared his throat, ran his hand through his hair, and anxiously waited for Ren Ningxiong to approach. As she got closer, he stood up straight, a charming smile on his face, and extended his right hand, saying, hello, I’m Yangwei, a freshman. Nice to meet. Before he could finish, Ren Ningxian walked right past him. His smile instantly froze, and his face turned bright red. Countless people burst into laughter, mocking him for overestimating himself, thinking the goddess was there for him. Wang Chen didn’t pay much attention to the commotion in the cafeteria. After a few of them finished, eating and returned their plates to the sink, they prepared to leave. At that moment, they noticed the girl from earlier standing right in front of them. With a rosy face and a smile, she extended her delicate hand to Wang Chen. Hello, let’s get to know each other. I’m Ren Ningxiong, a senior from the foreign languages department. Let’s be friends. The cafeteria instantly fell silent. The boys who had been excitedly discussing, stopped their animated gestures with their chopsticks feeling as if their hearts had stopped. What did the goddess just say? After three years of showing no interest in men, Ren Ningxiong took the initiative to ask Wang Chen to be friends. And she was smiling like a flower in front of him, unable to contain her joy. Many boys felt a tremendous blow, was this still the same cold beauty they were familiar with? Wang Chen looked at. Ren Ningxian’s outstretched hand but made no move. He calmly said, sorry, I prefer to be alone. He had to admit that Ren Ningxian was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. Among the girls he knew, her charm. Level was the highest and none of his women could compare to her. But that didn’t mean Wang Chen wanted to have any relationship with her. Of course, this was mainly because in his past life, Wang Chen knew Ren. Ningxian. During her college years, she showed no interest in men but unexpectedly accepted the pursuit of a rich second generation heir as graduation approached. Normally, that wouldn’t be a problem however, this rich, second generation later went bankrupt, and Ren Nyanshuang, without a hint of hesitation, accepted the pursuit of another rich second generation. Later, she didn’t know how many boyfriends she had changed. Before, Wang Chen was reborn, he heard in the class group that she finally got her wish and successfully married into a wealthy family, becoming a wealthy lady. As for Ren Nyanshuang’s looks, Wang Chen acknowledged them, but, when Ren Nyanshuang heard Wang Chen’s words, the smile on her face froze. She didn’t expect Wang Chen to directly reject her and without any hesitation, Ran Nyangxuan secretly wondered if her outfit or makeup today was off and that was why Wang Chen didn’t like her. She was momentarily lost in thought but her smile remained unchanged as she continued, it’s impolite to refuse others, I might become your best friend, you know. Besides, it’s just getting to know each other, we don’t necessarily have to become friends or perhaps something else. Ran Nyangxuan kept smiling, enthusiastically speaking to Wang Chen, so, how about trying to be friends with a senior? No need, Wang Chen replied. My time and energy are precious, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now. After saying that, Wang Chen turned and left. The smile on Ren Yangshuan’s face instantly vanished and she quickly stepped forward to block Wang Chen, saying, why? What? Ren Yangshuan pointed at the boys in the cafeteria and said, I’m the campus bell of the financial university for three consecutive years, you don’t know me? Am I not pretty enough? You’re pretty, with long legs and a big chest, Wang Chen nodded and said, then why do you refuse me? Ren Yangshuan looked. at wang chan in confusion and said is it because there are too many people here and you don’t like being too high profile or do you already have a girl you like you don’t like boys wang chan was suddenly filled with black lines speechless my refusal of you has nothing to do with how pretty you are nor does it relate to whether i have a girl i like just because you’re good looking doesn’t mean i have to be friends with you or that we must have some kind of relationship there are many who want to be friends with me if i agree to all of them how would i live are you clear he wasn’t the type to be unable to move when he saw a pretty girl. He would naturally pursue those he liked. Those he didn’t like were irrelevant to him. Between men and women, it’s not about who looks better that gives them the upper hand or makes them proactive. In most couples, the girl usually takes the initiative, while the boy is often more humble. But this does not include Wang Chen. He had the confidence and qualifications not to bow down before girls. Girls with outstanding looks and figures are a scarce resource in society, something that ordinary boys yearn for but cannot attain. And someone like Wang Chen, with his family background, is a rare existence, one that cannot be found globally. There are those with better family backgrounds, but none are as young and handsome as him. Those younger than him also cannot compare to Wang Chen’s family background. Wang Chen looked at Ren Yangshuang, expressionlessly and said, this senior, do you understand? Ren Yangshuang stood there, her mind blank. By the time she came to her senses, Wang Chen had already walked far away, and she hurriedly shouted, just getting to know each other, can we at least add each other on Feixin? Hearing this, Wang Chen waved his hand behind him, saying no more. Under the gaze of everyone in the cafeteria, Wang Chen and his companions left the cafeteria entrance. Ran Nyanshuang stared blankly at Wang Chen’s departing figure, deep in thought. Recalling Wang Chen’s words, a smile slowly appeared at the corner of her mouth. Wang Chen was completely different. From what she had imagined, he was very special but also very interesting. This kind of Wang Chen piqued her curiosity, making Rin Nyanshuang want to get to know him even more. Ran Nyanshuang walked over to her. Three roommates, acting as if nothing had happened, showing no signs of embarrassment at all. She said flatly, let’s go, see what the cafeteria is serving today. The three roommates looked at Ren Nyangxuan with strange expressions. Was this really their aloof roommate? Just moments ago, Ren Nyangxuan’s proactive behavior was completely different from the Ren Nyangxuan they knew. They had lived with her for three years and could say they understood her well. Usually, when rich second-generation boys pursued her, she would look on coldly, never moved. They never expected that even the goddess could develop feelings for a man and that she would take the initiative to flirt with Wang Chen. The most astonishing part was that she was rejected by Wang Chen. The three roommates cautiously observed Ren Yangshuang fearing she wouldn’t be able to handle being turned down by Wang Chen. But Ren Yangshuang appeared completely unfazed, as if nothing had happened. Soon, the four of them arrived at the window to place their orders. The people in the cafeteria finally came to their senses. What did they just see? The goddess took the initiative to flirt with Wang Chen, only to be rejected. How dare he? If it were them being approached by Run Yang Shuang, they would be over the moon. Who exactly was Wang Chen, that even the goddess could turn him down? It really couldn’t be that he was gay? In the cafeteria, a wave of discussion erupted. One was the handsome guy who had smashed a luxury car today, making quite a scene in being named the new campus heartthrob. The other was the three-time campus beauty, Run Yang Shuang, who would likely retain her title this year. Rumors spread rapidly, surging through the Campus network at an astonishing speed, quickly becoming a hot topic. Someone immediately edited a long post and shared it in related threads. Goddess Ren Yangshuang actively flirted with heartthrob Wang Chen, only, to be brutally rejected. Heartthrob suspected to dislike women. No way, no way, Ren Yangshuang has been our campus beauty for three consecutive years and she got rejected? Who is this Wang Chen? Such posts, were everywhere, and once released they caused a huge stir. In a short time, it spread throughout the entire campus. What if the heartthrob doesn’t like girls? My dreams are shattered. Goddess, what were you? Thinking? How could you like Wang Chen? I’m so mad I could grind my teeth. Goddess, look at me, I’m handsome too, okay. Hey! If the heartthrob doesn’t like girls, doesn’t that mean I have a chance? Among them seemed to be some strange comments. Countless people who had secret crushes or open affections for Ren Yangchuan had their hearts broken. Their aloof goddess had now fallen from grace being so proactive in front of Wang Chen. This was a significant blow to them. They had originally thought that with Ren Nyang Shuang’s high and cold demeanor, like an otherworldly fairy, she was destined to be alone. They never expected her to succumb to reality, lowering her noble head for a rich second generation like Wang Chen. Some students were devastated. In the comments of related posts, there were rampant slanders and insults. I knew it, how could? Anyone not like a rich second generation? Turns out she just wasn’t rich enough. Ha, you guys don’t know, I’ve heard she does that outside. She deserves to be rejected by my heartthrob, thinking just because. She’s a little pretty, everyone in the world has to like her? It’s Ren Nyangxuan who seduced my boyfriend, she can go to hell. Countless baseless comments appeared under the related posts. No one knew. If they were true, and no one cared, most just followed the rhythm set by those with ill intentions, speaking recklessly. Although some came from love turning to hate, the majority of the slander came from girls. They were already jealous of Ren Nyangxuan’s beauty. While they pretended to look down on her, they were envious of how many people liked her. Every time the school held a beauty contest, Ren Nyangxuan was always. Most of them were boys who wouldn’t even glance at them. They couldn’t let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slip by joining the crowd to insult and slander Rin Yangshuang, some words were so unbearable that many people quietly left the campus forum. Why should women make things difficult for other women? When an avalanche occurs, no snowflake is innocent. Inside the girls’ dormitory, the sturdy girl said, you all should look at the campus website, it’s full of negative comments about Ning Shuang. Yeah, these people know nothing and are just talking nonsense, it’s infuriating. Ningxuan, did you see it? Aren’t you going to respond? Ran Ningxuan lay lazily on her bed, looking at her phone with an indifferent expression, seemingly unconcerned about these malicious attacks. Seeing this, her roommate couldn’t help but ask curiously. Ningxuan, aren’t you angry? They are saying all this about you. What’s there to be angry about? Ran Ningxuan replied lightly, if one isn’t envied, they are mediocre. The harsher and more vicious there. Insults, the more it shows they are jealous of me, envious of me. Let them say what they want, their mouths are theirs, I can’t stop them from talking. But you can’t just let it go, the chubby girl said. I see. More and more people online cursing you, shouldn’t you post a video to clarify that it’s all rumors made up by netizens that there’s no truth to it? Yeah, yeah, Ning Shuang, hurry and post a video, it will be too late if you wait. Upon hearing this, Run Ning Shuang’s eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness, then she said, isn’t that falling into the trap of self-justification? Those who want to insult you will find a way to attack, and a single video won’t solve anything. These people usually scurry like rats in the gutter, avoiding the sunlight. Now that they’ve finally found a bit of presence, let them make a fuss. If I go out now and post a video, who would listen? It would only add fuel to the fire and they would only get more excited. Her roommates fell silent for a long time. They all agreed that releasing a statement now was not a good choice. They looked at Ren Ning Shuang with pity. Her reputation would be completely ruined from now on. Ning Shuang, why did you think to approach Wang Chen? You shouldn’t have been so proactive. Yeah, Ning. Shuang, you shouldn’t have been so rash. In their eyes, Ran Ning Shuang’s actions today were undoubtedly self-inflicted. In front of so many people in the cafeteria, she had taken the initiative to strike up a conversation with Wang Chen, without any pretense. It would have been fine if she succeeded. But Wang Chen rejected her. This undoubtedly gave others a handle to criticize her, which led to so much controversy. Rash? I don’t think so, I actually find Wang Chen quite interesting. If he had directly agreed, I would have thought he was no different from other men, just another one who was easily swayed by looks. Ren Ning Shuang said. Lightly. With a hint of a smile in her eyes, Ren Ning Shuang said, After our interaction just now, I found him quite interesting, I really want to date him. Ning Shuang, do you really want to date? Well, it’s true. That not dating in four years of college makes life feel incomplete. Then why choose Wang Chen, a roommate asked in confusion. Hasn’t he already rejected you? With so many rich second generation kids in school, I. Believe if you just waved your hand, they would all rush to you like dogs. Why bother looking for an unromantic Wang Chen? Other rich second generation kids? Ren Ning Shuang shook her head and said, which rich? Second generation can drive an Apollo i.e.? Which rich second generation is as tall and handsome as Wang Chen? I think any girl would want to find someone like Wang Chen. Don’t say you haven’t thought about it. Wang Chen rejected me once, I don’t believe he can reject me a second time. I won’t give up. I can fail countless times, but as long as the last time is successful, that’s enough. I don’t want to regret it after another. Girl wins over Wang Chen. Ren Ningxuan appeared very calm in front of her roommates, not hiding her feelings for Wang Chen. Her words made the dormitory quiet once again, Ren Ningxuan’s words made them feel that. After three years of living together in college, they hardly knew each other at all. Was this really their school beauty roommate who looked down on men? It felt so unfamiliar. This version of Ren Ningxuan was. Undoubtedly like a different person. At that moment, Ren Ningxuang glanced at the time, then stood up, changed her clothes, and walked out of the dormitory door. One of her roommates looked at Ren Ningxuang and asked. In confusion, Ningxuang, are you going to tutor students again? Didn’t you usually go at 3 in the afternoon? Why so early today? Yeah, Ningxuang, why not take a break? You work part-time during the day and also at night, that’s too much effort, making us look useless. Another roommate said worriedly, Ningxuang, just take a day off. Working part-time every day will wear you out. Besides, people are talking about you. Outside, why not wait until tomorrow to work? Ran Ningxuan turned to look inside the dormitory, revealing a beautiful smile as she said, I’ll go to my part-time job early, finish early, and then I can go find Wang. Chen later. If that girl takes advantage of my absence, I won’t have time to regret it. I’m off now, see you tonight. With that, Ran Ningxuan gracefully turned and left. The remaining roommates exchanged glances. The afternoon sun shone down on the basketball court. Wang Chen and a few tall guys were sweating profusely on the court. Wang Chen skillfully dribbled the ball, easily breaking through the defense, and executed a powerful dunk, successfully scoring. Under the influence of the entried basketball star, Wang Chen seemed to embody Kobe, unstoppable on the court. After an intense basketball game, everyone sat around the sidelines to rest. Nyo Ben was panting heavily, while the tall guy wiped his sweat with a towel. Zhen Zhen leaned closer to Wang Chen and said, When did you get so good at basketball? Did you secretly practice alone during the summer? I was just letting you guys win before, Wang Chen replied casually. Keep pretending, Zhang Zhen said, speechless. By the way, that was Rin Ningxuang just now, the recognized goddess of the university. You just rejected her advance like that? Don’t you regret it? I definitely wouldn’t have turned her down. Wang Chen smiled, took a sip of mineral water, and said, what’s there to regret? I don’t like her. She’s the goddess that countless people dream of, you just let her slip away. Nyo Ben chimed in. The tall guy looked at his muscular arms and then said, Wangchen doesn’t like her, so rejecting her isn’t wrong. But she’s the goddess of the university, how many people wish they could get close to her but never have the chance? Zhengjin said, somewhat confused. Clearly, he didn’t understand Wangchen’s thoughts. There are plenty of women in the world, it doesn’t have to be her, right? Wangchen shook his head. Zhengjin pouted and said, if I had the chance to talk to her, I definitely wouldn’t let it go. Wangchen stood up, his gaze fixed. on the court, and said, right now, I care more about how to play basketball. He then dribbled quickly towards the court, leaped high, and smoothly sent the ball into the basket. A beautiful three -pointer. Wow, the. Male god is so handsome. I saw the male god’s abs, I’m going to faint. Wang Chen’s handsome figure drew screens from many girls present. At that moment, a clear, cold voice rang out. Wang Chen, over here. Wang Chen turned his head at the sound. He saw a woman in a light pink long dress standing under the shade of a tree not far from the court, waving at him. It was Ren Ningxuan, who had hurried back after tutoring. Students. Wang Chen frowned, why was she here again? He had already rejected her so clearly, yet he didn’t expect Ren Ningxuan to still shamelessly approach him. Wang Chen couldn’t help but admire her thick skin. No. Wonder she was able to marry into a wealthy family in his past life. Ren Ningxuan kept waving at Wang Chen, but he had no intention of going over. Ren Ningxuan pouted, holding a bottle of water, a bit deflated as she reached down to cover her skirt, then jogged over to Wang Chen. By the time she arrived in front of him, she was already a bit out of breath. Her originally fair face had turned rosy, and a layer of sweat had even appeared on her forehead. Wang Shin couldn’t help but want to tease her, her acting skills were impressive. With a physique score of 90, she was stronger than many men, and she was putting on quite the show. It’s Ren. Ningxiong, why is she here again? They’ve been saying for years that Ren Ningxiong isn’t interested in men, but when she meets a rich guy, she still comes over with a smile, doesn’t she? Yeah, she was bashed in the. Posts, and she still has the nerve to come looking for my idol. The posts say Ren Ningxian is quite the spendthrift when it comes to men, as long as they have money, they can support her. You all misunderstand. Her, she and Wang Chen are childhood sweethearts. Later, she fell for someone else, and Wang Chen was disappointed. By the time Ren Ningxian regretted it, Wang Chen no longer liked her. Now it’s a chasing husband. Scenario. Dude, your imagination is impressive, it’s a shame you don’t write novels. The students around who were watching Wang Chen and the others play basketball also noticed Ren Ningxian’s arrival. They couldn’t help but start discussing her. Their voices were loud, showing no intention of avoiding the presence of the main character, Ren Ningxiong. Both Wang Chen and Ren Ningxiong heard them clearly, she appeared. Very calm, as if she hadn’t heard anything. With a radiant smile, she looked up at Wang Chen and said, I just greeted you, why didn’t you come over? It’s such a hot sun, making me run over here. Wang Chen looked. At her slightly flushed cheeks, her clear and bright eyes resembling a clear spring, pure and untainted, with her long, shiny black hair casually draped over her shoulders. Her cherry-like lips were moist and bright. Red, like a ripe cherry, vibrant and dripping with allure. Wang Chen pointed at the crowd around them and said lightly, what are they saying? Just some bored people talking nonsense online, you don’t need to pay. Attention, Ren Ningxian replied with a beaming smile. Wang Chen listened to the voices around him. The school forum, he hadn’t been paying attention, so he naturally didn’t know what was happening. However, from what? These people were saying, it was easy for Wang Chen to deduce that the criticism was all directed at Ren Ningxian. It seemed her reputation was completely ruined. It appeared that the cause of this was his refusal. Of Ren Ningxiang at noon, which had brought her this controversy. Seemingly unfazed, Ren Ningxiang smiled and said, Are you concerned about me? You’re overthinking it. Wang Chen replied, speechless. He he. I’ll. Take that as you’re caring about me, Ren Ningxiang said, shyly lowering her head, her fair little hands twisting together, her tone carrying a hint of bashfulness as she said, How annoying, I’m a bit embarrassed now. Before Wang Chen could react, Ren Ningxian pulled out a bottle of sports drink from behind her and handed it to him, saying, I know you must be tired from playing, so I prepared a cold drink for you. Hurry and drink. It’s… Wang Chen looked at her coldly, this woman was truly difficult to deal with. You should take it quickly, or it won’t be cold in a bit, Ren Ningxian smiled. Wang Chen looked at the chilled drink in front of him, instinctively swallowing, though he really wanted to drink it, he didn’t reach out to take it. Seeing Ren Ningxian’s expectant expression, he raised his head and warned her with a glance, saying, what exactly? Do you want? Wang Chen directly asked the question that puzzled him. In his previous life, didn’t Ren Ningxiang only start dating close to graduation? Why was it happening earlier now? Could it be the effect of the entry? Was his charm really that great? Ren Ningxiang’s behavior was too unusual, she didn’t seem like a purely materialistic woman, nor did she appear to be solely attracted by his charm. On the contrary, Ren Ningxiang exuded a sense of cunning. The more she acted this way, the more Wangchen felt something was off.So Wangchen directly asked his question, curious about what she really wanted. I like you, Ren Ningxuan said. Straightforwardly, just give me a chance, okay? I’ve already found out that you don’t have a girlfriend in college. Didn’t I just reject you, he replied. I know, Ren Ningxuan interrupted him, just like you said. Before, whether I like you or not is my business, and whether I pursue you is also my business. And am I not good looking? If I were your girlfriend, wouldn’t it be quite impressive to take me out? Aren’t you even? A little moved? I’m the campus bell. Ren Ningxuan playfully blinked her eyes and pouted her rosy lips, saying, I don’t care whether you agree or not, I’m determined to pursue you, and no one can stop me. No way. Sister. Wang Chen was completely stunned. He never expected Ren Ningxuan to be so shameless, showing no airs of being the campus bell of a prestigious university. Ren Ningxuan, you are quite something. Hiss. Thinking of this, Wang Chen couldn’t help but take a deep breath. This girl is terrifying, one must not be careless. I’m your senior, you know. If we were to date, you’d definitely have a good reputation at the university, Ren Ningxuan said seriously, her big round eyes wide open. You should drink your beverage first, it’s getting warm. Wang Chen stared at her, frowning. Ren Ningxuan looked straight into Wang Chen’s eyes, a smile on her face, her slightly upturned lips carrying a confident yet playful expression. Wang Chen reached out to take the drink, saying lightly, thanks. He was still soft-hearted. Of course, mainly because. The summer heat in Magic City was just too stifling, no one could refuse a cold drink after exercising. After taking the drink, Wang Chen unscrewed the cap and took a sip. The coolest mixed with a hint of lime. Flavor instantly washed away the summer heat, it was a taste he liked. He let out a long breath, feeling energized immediately. How is it? Tasty, right? Ren Ningxuang watched Wang Chen drink the beverage she gave. Him, her face lighting up with joy as she smiled, this is my favorite lime flavor, I wonder if you like it. After saying that, she looked at Wang Chen with eager anticipation. Wang Chen looked down at Ren Ningxuang. His expression inadvertently softening. He wasn’t Lu Xia Hui. Faced with such a beautiful girl who was so eager to please him, he found it hard to refuse. It was inevitable that he felt a bit moved. It’s pretty good. You put in some thought. Wang Chen’s tone softened a little. As long as it’s good, Ren Ningxuan said, her eyes turning into crescent moons, happily adding, since you like it, I’ll bring you some next time. No need, Wang Chen instinctively wanted to refuse. But Ren Ningxuan didn’t give him a chance to respond, saying directly, it’s settled then, I’ll be watching you play basketball under the shade of the tree. Go. For it. After saying that, Ren Ningxuan gave Wang Chen a thumbs up and quickly ran towards the shade, leaving him with a light and graceful silhouette. The breeze gently brushed by, her long hair flowing like, lively black satin dancing freely in the wind, leaving a faint fragrance in the air. Wang Chen looked at the drink in his hand, his expression somewhat complicated. He originally didn’t want to have any interactions with Ren Ningxuan. But facing a youthful and vibrant beauty, it was truly hard to refuse. Wang Chen took out his phone, logged into the university’s campus network, and was instantly drawn in by a screen full of. posts. He scrolled down, quickly browsing through them. The situation arose because of him, and there were quite a few attacks directed at him. He couldn’t just pretend he didn’t see them. However, Ren Ningxuan seemed unaffected by these negative comments. Was her mental fortitude that strong? Still, Wang Chen shook his head and turned back to the basketball court. Wang Chen and Nioban were sweating it out on the court, while Ren. Nyangxuan watched intently from the side. Every time Wang Chen made a successful shot, Ren Nyangxuan would scream like a little fangirl, continuously cheering him on. At that moment, a commotion erupted at the entrance of the court as a group of people in sportswear walked in. Leading them was a muscular man standing nearly two meters tall, dressed in loose sports attire, broad-shouldered and thick-backed, his gaze scanning the area. Xia Wenchuan’s eyes landed on Rin Yangshiong. He stared at her with an infatuated look on his face. Then, Xia Wenchuan withdrew his gaze and, accompanied by his group, walked straight up to Wang Chen, crossing his arms and saying with a face full of anger, kid, I heard you’re pursuing Yangshiong? Wang Chen frowned but remained silent. Who doesn’t know about the prestigious financial university? I’ve been pursuing Nanshan. How dare you pursue her too, you’re simply asking for trouble. Xia Wenxuan continued. As soon as Zheng Zhen heard this, he immediately stepped forward and shouted, Who are you to meddle in our business? Xia Wenxuan. Didn’t even glance at Zheng Zhen, disdainfully saying, I’m Xia Wenxuan, you’d better know your place. Who the hell is Xia Wenxuan? Never heard of him, Nyo Ben scoffed. Xia Wenxuan’s expression turned cold as. He looked at Wang Chen and said, my dad is a leader in the business school, so if you know what’s good for you, stay away from Nyang Xiang. I’m not someone you can provoke. Wang Chen looked at him as if he were a fool. And then said lightly, who I want to be friends with is not up to you to decide. Humph. Xia Wenchuan snorted coldly and said, do you really think Nyang Xiang would like you? Don’t dream. I’m the man who deserves. Horror. Whether you deserve her or not is not for you to say, Wang Chen replied calmly. UTM. Xia Wenchuan clenched his fists and said, if that’s the case, let’s see who’s better on the court. If you’re a man, compete with me. Consider yourself lucky, Wang Chen nodded and said, I was just getting bored, so let’s have a few matches. The group in front of him looked like a basketball team, each one muscular. He felt that playing with Zhang Zhen and the others wasn’t enough and he hadn’t fully unleashed the ability of the basketball star entry. Hopefully, this group has some skill, otherwise, it wouldn’t be fun. Then, Wang Chen and Xia Wenchuan each took their teams and stood on the court. Nyo Ben patted Wang Chen on the shoulder, looking nervous as he said, don’t be afraid, old Wang, we can definitely win. Don’t worry, we won’t lose. Wang Chen nodded. The game began, and Xia Wenchuan took the first serve, quickly charging towards the basket with the ball. He barreled through, every move filled with provocation, his gaze occasionally casting a contemptuous glance at Wang Chen and his teammates. He dribbled to the basket, leaped high, and executed a beautiful dunk, the basketball crashing into the hoop. Did you see that? This is strength. Xia Wenchuan shouted, his. face full of pride. Ever since the cafeteria rumors spread that Ren Nyangxian was actively pursuing Wang Chen, he had been holding his breath, thinking, why should I, the one who can’t have the goddess, see you toss? Her aside like trash? Upon hearing that Wang Chen was playing here, he brought his friends from the financial university basketball team just to vent his frustration. So what if he has money? He’ll still lose to me. What does he have to compete with? Let Nyangxian know that this kid is nothing but rich. Nyangxian will eventually belong to me. Ren Yangxiang, seeing Xia Wenchuan score, looked anxious, shouting loudly, Wang Chen. Go for it, go for it. She clenched her hands tightly, her eyes fixed on the court. Upon hearing Ren Yangxiang’s cheers, Xia Wenchuan’s face darkened, and his hatred for Wang Chen deepened. Wang Chen looked at Xia Wenchuan’s arrogant demeanor and smirked slightly, saying, you got one point, and you’re already so proud. In an instant, Xia Wenchuan felt the aura around Wang Chen change, suddenly becoming sharp, like a sword drawn from its sheath. After catching the ball, Wang Chen skillfully dribbled a few steps then stepped back, his feet retreating beyond the three-point line. The basketball traced a beautiful arc, precisely piercing through. The net. Beautiful. Nyo Ben exclaimed. Looks like I underestimated you. Seeing Wang Chen’s accurate shot, Xia Wenchuan’s expression gradually became serious. Wang Chen nimbly weaved through the court, effortlessly. Breaking through the defenses of Xia Wenchuan and the others with his superb skills and keen insight. Wang Chen pressed his advantage, scoring several consecutive baskets, each one leaving Xia Wenchuan in shock. Dunk, dunk, and another dunk. The male god looks so handsome when he plays. I like him so much. He’s handsome even when he’s not playing. Wang Chen, go for it. Cheers from the audience echoed outside the court. Watching Wang Chen score repeatedly, Xia Wenchuan’s face turned extremely ugly, his gaze towards Wang Chen revealing a hint of jealousy and resentment. Why was it that Wang Chen was both handsome and wealthy, and played basketball so well? He couldn’t accept it. Swish. Another basket. The final score was 5-1. After Wang Chen scored again, he looked at Xia Wenchuan, his eyes filled with provocation. Do you need to keep playing? Xia Wenchuan looked at Wang Chen, feeling helpless and desperate. Wang Chen looked at Xia Wenchuan, his eyes showing a hint of disdain as he said lightly, you lost. Xia Wenchuan was filled with anger and unwillingness, feeling as if the world was spinning, his mind echoing, you lost, you lost, you completely lost. You embarrassed yourself in front of Ning Shuang. Xia Wenchuan’s face gradually turned red, his whole body radiating heat. Xia Wenchuan’s face grew increasingly flushed filled with humiliation and rage, signaling his basketball teammates to take action. A few teammates exchanged glances and nodded slightly. What do you want to do? Nyo Ben keenly sensed their intentions and shouted loudly. However, Xia Wenchuan’s teammates completely ignored Nyo Ben and quickly charged towards Wang Chen. Damn, are you idiots? You can’t. Win at basketball, and now you’re resorting to violence. Zheng Chen couldn’t dodge in time and was punched in the face, causing him to cover his face and stagger back. Seeing this, Wang Chen was about to step in and teach these guys a lesson, testing his extraordinary skills. Just then, a tall guy roared, charging forward like an angry bull. He stood at nearly 2 meters tall, muscular from years of working out. The big guy rushed. In front of Xia Wenchuan, swinging his fist towards Xia Wenchuan’s face. Bang! Blood immediately gushed from Xia Wenchuan’s face, and he staggered backward from the blow. Seeing the big guy had made his move, Wang Chen. immediately joined the fight. His movements were swift, landing punch after punch, causing Xia Wenchuan’s teammates to bleed profusely. Under Wang Chen’s immense strength, no one could withstand a single punch. Before long, the entire basketball team lay sprawled on the hot floor, wailing in agony. Damn, how is he so strong? Be careful. Xia Wenchuan watched his teammates being utterly overpowered by Wang Chen and the big guy, feeling both angry and anxious. He saw Wang Chen knocking them down one by one, knowing he was no match, and dared not step forward, only able to shout angrily, if you dare to lay a hand on us, my dad is the department head, just wait to be expelled. Upon hearing Xia Wenchuan’s words, Wang Chen sneered inwardly, not to mention they were the ones who started it. Even if Wang Chen were to strike first, so what? He had money and power, could he really be afraid of this so-called department head? If he really backed down, he might as well just end it all himself. It would be too shameful for all the traversers. Nyo Ben glared at them and said. We are acting in self-defense, you should be the ones punished for attacking us without cause. Today, even if your dad is the king of heaven, you can’t bully us, the big guy said loudly. Xia Wenchuan wanted to continue resisting. However, he had already been beaten to the point of dizziness by the big guy and had no strength left to stand up. Lying on the ground, Xia Wenchuan could only groan in pain, his face filled with anger and unwillingness. Wang Chen looked at Xia Wenchuan lying on the ground and coldly said, don’t think that just because your dad is only the department head or even the principal, I won’t hit you today. If you dare to provoke me again in the future, it won’t be so simple. Ren Ningxuang rushed over from the edge of the court, her eyes filled with worry and anxiety. She ran to Wang Chen’s side, grabbed his hand, and carefully examined him for injuries, her gaze full of concern. Wang Chen, are you okay? Her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were already glistening with tears. Wang Chen looked at Ren Ningxuang, feeling a bit touched, and said, I’m fine, don’t worry. Ren Ningxuang looked up at Wang Chen’s face, her eyes scanning him back and forth, continuously asking, are you really okay? With so many of them, did you get hurt anywhere? As she spoke, she gently stroked Wang Chen’s arm, as if afraid he was injured. Seeing Ren Ningxuan’s anxious expression seemed genuine, Wang Chen felt warm inside. He reassured her, really, I’m fine, just relax. Sha. Wenxuan struggled to get up from the ground, glaring fiercely as he said, Wang Chen, just wait and see, this isn’t over. Seeing Ren Ningxuan’s concern for Wang Chen, jealousy burned in his heart, and his eyes nearly. Spat fire. Upon hearing Xia Wenxuan’s words, Ren Ningxuan turned to look at him, her eyes filled with disgust. She tightly held Wang Chen’s hand and said, Xia Wenxuan, stop making a scene. I like Wang Chen, and that has nothing to do with you. Xia Wenxuan’s face twisted in anger as he shouted, Ningxuan, how can you like him? I’m the one who deserves you the most, what does he have that I don’t? Xia Wenxuan, stop deceiving yourself. You’re just a clown, Wang Chen said with a cold laugh. Ren Ningxuan coldly added, please don’t bother me anymore, I will never like you. Wang Chen ignored Xia Wenchuan’s harsh words and turned to leave. The court with Ren Ningxuan and Zhang Zhen. Ren Ningxuan anxiously said to Wang Chen, I have nothing to do with him, it’s Xia Wenchuan who has been pursuing me. I’ve rejected him many times, but he still won’t let. Go, I. It’s okay, Wang Chen said lightly. The chaos on the basketball court attracted quite a few people to look over. Many were interested in Wang Chen, the rising star who had become popular at school. Since the beginning of the semester, whispers floated around Wang Chen and the others. That’s Wang Chen, huh? Besides being good at fighting, there’s nothing special about him. So handsome. Wang Chen is truly the campus god of finance, no doubt about it. Look, Ren Ningxuang is over there too. Did Wang Chen fight because of her? Wu Wu, are Wang Chen and Ren Ningxuang together? I have no chance now. I have high definition. Photos of Wang Chen, a hundred yuan each. You won’t regret it. High definition, a must-have for practicing hand speed, girls who need it, come quickly. Wang Chen paid no attention to these voices. As they. Just walked out of the court, preparing to return to the dormitory, they heard Xia Wenchuan’s cries from behind. Dad, it was those guys who beat me. Stop. Which department are you from? You think you can hit someone and run away? Upon hearing the furious shout of the department head, Xia Ruejin, from behind, Wangqin stopped and slowly turned around. He saw Xia Ruejin approaching them with a face full of anger, while Xia Wenchuan was beside him, embellishing his complaints. Shah Ruejin pointed at Wang Chen and the others, loudly saying, you have such audacity, beating people in broad daylight at school, simply lawless. I will make you all pay the price and I want everyone expelled. Director Shah said, hands behind his back, as he walked in front of the crowd. He wore a stern expression, glaring at Wang Chen and the others. The students around the basketball court involuntarily fell silent, instinctively standing up straight, curious about how Director Shah would resolve the situation. Wang Chen looked at Director Shah in front of him, furrowing his brows, realizing. That Sha Wenchuan was the son of Sha Ruijin, no wonder he was so arrogant. He knew that this matter had to be settled today. In his previous life, Wang Xin had an extreme dislike for this director Sha. He often used his power to deliberately suppress and bully impoverished students, even withholding their scholarships. He would verbally attack the self-esteem of ordinary-looking impoverished female students. When faced with those who were slightly more attractive, he would use his power to create opportunities for physical contact in private. Impoverished students were already sensitive at heart. Many girls feeling timid would choose to endure as long as it wasn’t too excessive just to secure their scholarships. Some girls, unable to tolerate such treatment, would retaliate in anger. However, Director Shah would leverage his connections within the institution to report them to the school, claiming they openly insulted their superiors and had extremely poor moral character. In the end, they would face disciplinary actions or even expulsion, the remaining impoverished. Students could only swallow their anger and continue to endure, seeing how Director Shah held all the power. After this incident, Shah Ruejin completely tore off his mask of hypocrisy. He became increasingly reckless. On campus, making life difficult for these impoverished students. He dared not target others, only the impoverished, specifically picking on the soft targets calculating that they would choose to endure for the sake of money and their studies. Those students, filled with a thirst for knowledge and dreams of changing their fate, entered the university only to encounter such a nightmare. Later, a series of shocking scandals spread among the students. Rumors circulated that Shah Ruejin had crazily raped female students, and not just one. Most of those girls came from impoverished families, isolated and helpless. After suffering such atrocities, some were threatened into silence with scholarships and academic prospects, while others were filled with fear, unsure of that gaze seemed to penetrate his soul, calm as water, yet it appeared to contain endless power, causing Shah Ruejin to shiver inexplicably. This indifferent look was like a sharp dagger, piercing straight into the depths of Shah Ruejin’s fragile and sensitive pride. He had walked step by step from a small, county town to where he was today. Coming from an ordinary family, he felt like an ugly duckling among the rich kids at the prestigious university in the magical city. The sense of not fitting in was like a thorn in his back. The cold stares and disdain he had suffered in the past gradually eroded his heart, ultimately twisting it into this loathsome form. He vented all his long-suppressed resentment onto the more vulnerable group of impoverished students. Seeing their anger but inability to speak out greatly satisfied his vanity. The tolerance of the poor students only further fueled his arrogant demeanor. Wang Chen? He had long noticed him. He had no intention of provoking the wealthy. But now Wang Chen had made a mistake and the leverage was in his hands, which thrilled him. So what if he was rich? So what if he drove an Apollo? He would still be expelled. Therefore, when he heard that his son had been beaten by Wang Chen, he couldn’t wait to find trouble with him. But what he received in return was just a calm glance from Wang Chen. There was no contempt, nor any other implication. There was only indifference, the posture of a superior, as if looking at an ant. The facade he had built up over half his life seemed to be completely seen through by Wang Chen. In that instant, Xia Ruejin felt as if he had been struck by lightning, as if he had returned to the time when he first arrived at the university feeling so small, inferior, and helpless. Xia Ruejin was utterly furious. Yu, Xia. Ruejin’s lips trembled with anger, and after a long pause, he squeezed out a sentence through clenched teeth. Even if he struck first, the school will handle it. It’s not up to you to take action. Director Xia, Yu. Can’t be so biased towards your own son. This matter was initiated by Xia Wenchuan, we did nothing wrong, Ren Ningxiong couldn’t help but speak up. Xia Ruejin shot Ren Ningxiong a glare and said, mind your own business. I see you’re not a good person either, mingling with them, you’ll be expelled too. Director Xia, how can you be so unreasonable? Ren Ningxiong said angrily. Nyo Ben, hearing Xia Ruejin’s unreasonable stance, felt a surge of anger. He stepped forward and said, department head, aren’t you afraid of being talked about for doing this? I believe there are fair people in the school who won’t let you act recklessly. Couldn’t care less about Wang Chen’s words, he turned to those beside him and said, take them all to my office, I need to handle this matter properly. Just then, an elderly man stepped out of the crowd, his voice, booming like a bell, Director Sha, I witnessed the whole incident, it was Sha Wenchuan and his group who struck first, while Wang Chen and his group were acting in self-defense. As the department head, you cannot be so biased towards your own son. Upon seeing this person, Sha Rue Jin was instantly stunned. The newcomer was none other than the highly respected Professor Qin, Qin Chiming. This old professor had devoted his life to academia, single-mindedly dismissing fame and fortune, having cultivated students for decades at the university, with a high reputation. Even Shah Rui-jin, as the department head, had to show some deference in front of Professor Chien. Director Shah, this matter concerns the students’ integrity and fairness, you must handle it with caution and not make a decision that violates professional ethics and disregards justice due to personal bias. Otherwise, it won’t just be these few students whose hearts are chilled, but the trust of all the students in the school as well, Professor Qin said sternly, looking at Shah Ruei Jin. Upon hearing Professor Qin’s words, Shah Ruei Jin’s face changed colors, alternating between green and white as if he were a performer in a face-changing act. He opened his mouth, wanting to argue, but found himself at a loss for words.I in front of everyone, he could only snort coldly, forcing a smile as he said, since that’s the case, I’ll investigate thoroughly before making any statements. You all can go back for now. Wang Chen looked at Xia Rui Jin, a cold, smirk curling at the corners of his mouth as he said icily, Director Xia, I hope you can handle this matter fairly. Enjoy, your last moments of freedom. Question mark. Upon hearing this, Xia Rui Jin felt inexplicably flustered. Yet he couldn’t grasp the situation, thinking Wang Chen was just bluffing and speaking nonsense. After finishing, Wang Chen turned to Professor Qin, his stern expression instantly transforming into a genuine look of gratitude. He quickly walked up to Professor Qin, slightly bowing, and sincerely said, Professor Qin, thank you for your support. Professor Qin waved his hand with a gentle smile, saying, no need to be polite. I. can’t stand the distortion of truth. Rest assured, since I’ve stepped forward, this matter will be handled fairly. Ren Ningxion, with respect in her eyes, said, Professor Qin, we believe in you. With Professor Qin. As their reassurance, the anxious hearts of Ren Ningxion, Zhengjin, and the others finally began to settle. The group prepared to leave this place of conflict. Meanwhile, Xiaoruei Jin stood in place, his face dark as if it could drip water. He watched Wang Chan and the others leave, feeling a myriad of unwillingness in his heart, but under Professor Qin’s pressure he could only swallow his anger for now. He was filled with thoughts on how to regain face for his son and himself. Little did he know, his downfall was already quietly approaching. Business school. Dean’s office. Wang Chan stood at the door and knocked. Come in. A deep voice came. From inside. Upon hearing this, Wang Chan pushed the door open and walked in steadily. The dean’s office was simply and elegantly decorated, without excessive luxury. A deep brown solid wood desk was placed by the window, neatly arranged with a computer, documents, and a few commonly used pens. Behind the desk sat a middle-aged man who looked to be in his 40s. He was slightly plump, with a distinctive Mediterranean hairstyle. On top of his head, complemented by a protruding belly that gave off an air of someone who had long been in a position of power. He sat there, looking down at the documents in his hand. Wang Chen, seeing this, showed. No impatience and sat down on the sofa, patiently waiting. After a moment, Dean Chen finally looked up. Seeing Wang Chen sitting on the sofa, a hint of confusion crossed his eyes as he asked, Student, what can I do? For you? Hello, Dean Chen, I am Wang Chen, a junior at the business school. Wang Chen stood up and introduced himself to Dean Chen. Wang Chen? Dean Chen furrowed his brows, thinking for a moment before saying, I know you, you made quite a stir when you arrived at our university in an Apollo IE. As he spoke, his gaze swept over Wang Chen again. Did you come here for something? Yes, I have a small matter to trouble you. With Wangchen smiled, speaking leisurely, as a student of the university, I have been deeply influenced by the school’s educational philosophy, the teachings of the professors, and the strong learning atmosphere over the past few years. It has given me a deeper sense of identity and belonging to our school, and I’ve been thinking that I should do something tangible for the school. At this point, Wangchen paused slightly, looking directly at Dean Chen, coincidentally, I have some spare money, and I thought about contributing a little to the school. Wang Chen stated directly, I am prepared to donate 10 million to the school to express my respect for it. I wonder, what do you think, Dean? 10 million? Dean Chen was taken aback upon hearing this, his expression unable to maintain its composure. He looked Wang Chen up and down then, Dean Chen. Slowly nodded, a look of satisfaction appearing on his face as he sighed, as a student of the school, your thoughtfulness brings me great comfort as the dean of the business school. It makes the school’s investment in you over the years worthwhile. A glimmer of insight shone in Dean Chen’s eyes as he said meaningfully, however. I still want to know, is this donation your own idea or is it your family’s intention? It’s entirely my own idea. Then your family won’t have any objections? Wang Chen smiled lightly and said, Dean, you’re overthinking it. This small amount of money is something I can decide on, so you can rest assured. Upon hearing this, Dean Chen’s eyes immediately lit up and the smile on his face grew even more pronounced. He stood up, walked over to Wang Chen, and sat down beside him, his face beaming with smiles as he tentatively. Asked, Wang, thank you for your donation to the school. If you have any needs, feel free to mention them. As long as it’s within the school’s capabilities, we will do our best to accommodate you. As for needs, I do have a few. Wang Chen didn’t beat around the bush and spoke frankly, of course, I donated this 10 million because I want the school to develop better. What are your requests? Let’s hear them, Dean Chen chuckled. And said, Dean Chen, you know that people like us are expected to achieve great things by our families, Wang Chen said lightly. So during my university years, I plan to start a business, but as you know, there are many things to handle in a startup, and when it gets busy, I might not have time. I hope the dean can be a bit lenient regarding my studies. In fact, Wang Chen had other plans in mind. His intention was to use the dean as a key figure to expose the issues surrounding Xia Rue Jin ahead of time. He wanted to remove Xia Rue Jin from his position as department head to clear the way for a thorough investigation by relevant authorities. After all, having that kind of protection makes it difficult to investigate, even going through the proper procedures takes a lot of time. Wang Chen thought, why not address his academic issues at the same time? After all, with the busy affairs of the company in the future, he couldn’t possibly spend all his time in school studying. Dean Chen immediately understood. Wang Chen didn’t want to waste time in school. He wasn’t. Surprised. Every year, many rich second-generation individuals came seeking similar arrangements. These rich kids, accustomed to a laid-back lifestyle, couldn’t possibly focus on their studies. However, Wang Chen was. Nearly offering 10 million to avoid the hardships of studying. Dean Chen was still somewhat taken aback. He instinctively glanced at the Vacheron Constantin watch on Wang Chen’s wrist, his throat slightly bobbing as. He licked his lips. A flash of greed crossed his eyes. Wang Chen casually mentioned 10 million, which seemed like pocket change to him. If he could extract more donations from him, such a large sum would certainly. not end up in his hands, but as long as the money passed through him first and then went back, it would be like a bank. Countless people deposit money, and not a cent is lost, yet the bank profits immensely. With each transaction, the profits could be substantial. Dean Chen’s mind began to race. The more Wang Chen donated, the more benefits he would reap. After pondering for a moment, Dean Chen slightly furrowed his brow and put on a troubled expression, saying, this matter is a bit difficult to handle. Wang, you know that the school certainly doesn’t want you to just drift through your time here without learning anything by graduation. Wang. Chen nodded, indicating his understanding. Moreover, our school’s motto is, cultivating virtue and nurturing talent. For decades, our rigorous teaching philosophy has taken root in people’s hearts. Dean Chen frowned. And said helplessly, Wang, I can understand your desire for special treatment, but given the current situation, it’s quite challenging to operate and not easy to manage. Wang Chen’s expression shifted, he wondered. What Dean Chen meant by that, not easy to handle. To put it bluntly, it’s not that it can’t be done, but rather that he feels the chips he has are insufficient. Wang Chen looked at the rotund Dean Chen in front of him, and a cold smile involuntarily rose in his heart. 10 million wasn’t even worth his attention, this appetite was rather excessive. Wang Chen sneered inwardly, though he didn’t show it on his face. He curled the corners of his mouth into a smile and said in a calm tone, since Dean Chen has mentioned the teaching philosophy, I have one more thing to address. Wang Chen looked at Dean Chen seriously and said, most leaders and teachers in the school are diligent and responsible, and I deeply admire this. However, there’s an old saying that goes, in a big forest, there are all kinds of birds. In the ranks, it’s inevitable that a few charlatans will mix in. There are a few morally corrupt scoundrels who, relying on their power, act recklessly, oppressing and even humiliating students for a long time. To take the rights granted by the people and turn them against the people is simply despicable. Wang Chin continued, I hope the dean will report this to the school’s disciplinary committee for a thorough investigation of the teaching staff. Our university. absolutely cannot allow such people to exist, otherwise, the prestige built up over decades could be destroyed in an instant. Dean Chen, who had initially worn a somewhat perfunctory expression, gradually became serious. He straightened his posture and asked with a solemn face, is there really such a thing? Wang Chen didn’t know what Dean Chen was aware of before, but now he could be certain. The Dean in front of him definitely knew some details, but he hadn’t taken action, perhaps for his own interests, he was even involved in or covering for Xia Ruei Jin. It made sense, Sha Rue Jin had been bullying others in the institute for so many years. Without any issues, if no one was protecting him, that would be strange. In his previous life, Wang Chen had never interacted with Dean Chen and even after Sha Rue Jin’s matters were thoroughly exposed, he had not been implicated. Wang Chen didn’t understand Dean Chen’s character. Now it seemed that this old man was no good either. A den of thieves. Compared to someone as blatant as Sha Rue Jin, people like Dean Chen were the real. Pests. Hidden in the shadows, finding evidence of his crimes would be much harder than with Sha Rue Jin. If the dean can thoroughly investigate the teaching staff, I am willing to increase my donation by another 10. Million. Wang Chen paused and said lightly, a total of 20 million in donations, I believe this would be a significant achievement for Dean Chen as well. 20 million. Dean Chen’s eyes flickered uncertainly. Somewhat tempted, but ultimately regained his composure. Even without the donation, I would report this to the school. This concerns all the faculty and students of our university, so you can rest assured about that. Dean Shin said with righteous seriousness, as the dean of the business school, I will definitely handle this matter fairly. Alas. Suddenly, Dean Shin let out a heavy sigh and said, it’s quite embarrassing to say, but I, as the dean, was completely unaware of such a significant incident, and it took you, Wang, to remind me. Dean Shin said solemnly, however, since it involves the entire teaching staff, I can’t handle it directly and can only report it to the school for them to deal with. Wang, your donation of 20 million to the school is greatly appreciated on behalf of the school. After all, students like you who care about the school are truly rare. Dean Chen sighed and said, it’s a pity that while 20 million seems like a lot, we have even more impoverished students at our school. This won’t even catch the principal’s attention. To resolve the matter immediately. By the time I report it layer by layer, who knows when it will reach the top. Not enough? Upon hearing this, Wang Chen straightened his body and crossed his legs, saying, then. What does Dean Chen think I need to donate to catch the principal’s attention? Although there was a smile on his face, his eyes were icy cold. This director Chen had quite the appetite, 20 million was still not enough. Wang Chin felt a wave of irritation rising in his heart, his patience was wearing thin with this director Chen. After a moment of contemplation, director Chen helplessly said, 20 million is already quite a lot. We can’t let a student like you worry about these matters. Don’t worry, as the director, I will handle this matter well. No matter what difficulties arise, I will root out this troublemaker and restore a clear sky for the students. Wang Chin couldn’t help but laugh. Director Chen’s words were impressive, but he wasn’t doing anything practical. By the time he dealt with this issue, it would probably be after Wang Chen graduated from university, and Xia Ruejin would still be in the school, wielding power. Wang Chen felt his fists clench, he took a deep breath to calm himself. Then he waved his hand and said, it’s fine. Director, just tell me the amount, whether I can bear it, I have my own measure. Hearing this, Director Chen’s face lit up. He trembled as he reached out both hands to grasp Wang Chen’s hand and said, good child, the school is. Fortunate to have a student like you. After a pause, Director Chen continued, I think, if we could have one or two hundred million, that should be enough. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen’s face darkened like water. He shook off Director Chen’s hand, stood up, and grabbed his collar. In the face of his superhuman strength, Director Chen was like a chick, lifted into the air by Wang Chen. Wang Chen’s gaze was filled with coldness. You fool, am I giving you face? You’re trying to extort me? Two hundred million? Greedy pig, do you really think I’m a child? Don’t you know what I’m thinking? He hadn’t wanted to act this way. However, Director Chen’s demeanor was simply too disgusting. With a slicked back hairstyle and a bloated face, as the dean of the business school, he managed the entire college, hundreds of teachers, and thousands of students. His thoughts and actions would influence tens of thousands of people. In his position, he should be working for his role. Director Chen was the exact opposite. In his position, he was not fulfilling his role. At this level, he should be thinking about how to better benefit the students and provide them with a better learning environment. Instead, his mind was filled with how to make money and how to use his power for personal gain. Such a person, in a high position at the school, was nothing but a tumor. This affected the entire teaching staff. The reality was cruel, what should have been a pure campus was filled with countless filth. What impact would this have on the students? What impact would it have on Hua Gua when they entered society? A strong youth means a strong Hua Gua, a weak youth means a weak Hua Gua. Director Chen’s face turned beet red, but it was of no use. In what should have been his prime, he neglected exercise, had many social engagements over drinks, and was also addicted to wine and women. How could he possibly be Wang Chen’s match? Even if he exerted all. His strength, Wang Chen’s hand remained unmoved, as if forged from steel. Wang Chen threw Director Chen onto the sofa, leaving him in a disheveled state. You dare. After recovering, Director Chen’s face was filled. With rage, his anger soaring to the heavens. Since becoming the director who had not treated him politely, yet today he suffered such humiliation at Wang Chen’s hands. He shouted angrily, you are too audacious. As your director, how dare you lay a hand on me as a student of the academy? Reversed, reversed. Who is your teacher? How did they teach you? You show no respect for your teachers. What use will such a student be in? Society? You will only be a parasite, a tumor. If you dare to lay a hand on me again, I will report you to the school and have you expelled. Just you? Upon hearing this, Wang Chen revealed a look of disdain and said, you still know you are the director? In a high position, as a role model, you should be thinking about doing something for the school and the students, yet all you think about is how to make money. Wang Chen reached. Outun patted Dean Chen’s face, saying, Did you really think I wouldn’t know what you’re up to? You really dare to ask for 200 million? Can you even handle that? Then Wang Chen leaned closer to Dean. Chen Zirin whispered, You were involved in those things that Xia Rui Jin did, right? He he. Upon hearing this, Dean Chen instantly fell silent, his expression shifting dramatically. Finally, he sighed and said. Wang, I think there might be some misunderstanding between us. The 200 million I mentioned earlier was just to help you resolve the issue quickly. This money has nothing to do with me. As the dean of the college, my responsibility is to solve problems for the students. That is my duty. How could I possibly think of profiting from you? It’s not that I don’t want to manage this matter. It’s just that reporting it to the school takes time. I’m just a dean. This isn’t something I can handle. Besides, I only provided you with a way to solve the problem. Whether you donate or not is your choice. I have no right to interfere. Dean. Chen took a deep breath and said earnestly, of course, I may not have been clear earlier, which led to your misunderstanding. It’s my fault for causing you to feel this way. It’s normal for young people to be a bit hot-headed, I can understand that. If there’s any misunderstanding, we can sit down and talk it over slowly. Don’t you have time? Academic matters are easy to discuss. Wang Chen watched Dean Chen’s performance with a cold smile. No wonder he had been in the political arena for decades. His words were truly impeccable, managing to twist things around like this. If Wang Chen weren’t so sure that Shah Rui Wei Jin had issues, he might have actually believed the other party because of this act. Misunderstanding? I don’t think so, Wang Chen said lightly. You aren’t doing your job as Dean at all, but you’re quite skilled at this political game. If an ordinary person heard your words, they might just be fooled by you. Wang Chen, seeing that his words had no effect on him, Dean Chen could only adopt his position as Dean and sternly shouted at Wang Chen, do you know what you’ve done? You barged into the dean’s office without permission and even dared to lay hands on the dean. This is enough to get you a serious reprimand. You could even be expelled. Do you know the consequences of this? Will your parents be disappointed in you? Will this have unnecessary effects on you? After finishing, Dean Chen’s voice lowered as he said, let’s leave it at that. I’ll pretend nothing happened. Young people make mistakes. That’s normal. And as your teacher, I have a certain responsibility too. You wouldn’t want your parents to know you were expelled from school or even have a criminal record, would you? What? Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and said with a laugh, soft tactics don’t work so you’re going hard now? Dean Chen’s face darkened again and he angrily said, Wang Chen, don’t push your luck, I’m giving you one. Last chance. Bang. Crack. Ah. Before he could finish his sentence, Wang Chen kicked him. With a crack, Dean Chen let out a scream. He felt a sharp pain in his thigh, as if it had been broken, and he couldn’t help but scream like a pig being slaughtered. Dean Chen covered his thigh with both hands, the intense pain making him lose his composure. He never expected Wang Chen would dare to strike him. The severe pain made his whole body tremble, and he roared, you dare hit me. A student like you, who disregards the law and shows no respect for teachers, doesn’t deserve to attend the finance university. I will expel you and notify the entire school. Dean Chen said angrily, I will also call the police to have you arrested, you will face legal consequences. If you kneel and beg for mercy now, I might consider it. Slap. Before Dean Chen could finish his sentence, Wang Chen slapped him across the face. Dean Chen’s face immediately swelled up and he was taken aback, stumbling back while shouting, help! Security! Security, come quickly! Wang Chen looked at the disheveled Dean Chen in front of him, his gaze sharp. Even at this point, he still thought he could threaten him, it was laughable. With a swift kick, Dean Chen was slammed to the ground like trash. He struggled to get up, bloodied all over, his already grotesque face looking even more hideous. Wang Chen brushed off his pants and straightened his clothes and after confirming he hadn’t gotten any blood on himself, he plopped down onto the sofa. Glancing at the moaning Dean Chen, he said casually, let me introduce myself again, I’m Wang Chen. Of course, you might not know much about me. My dad is Wang Jangwo, you can look it up online. Whatever means or connections you have, you better use them quickly. Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t have time to act and you’ll be eating from the cafeteria’s big pot tonight. Cherish your last moments of freedom. Wang Chen kicked Dean Chen in the face, insulting him wantonly. He was genuinely angry. Since Dean Chen wanted to use his power to oppress, Wang Chen would play along. Let’s see whose background is tougher. With Wang Chen’s family background, as long as he didn’t provoke someone of equal standing, he could still walk tall in Hua Gua. Dealing with a mere college dean was naturally a piece of cake. After that, Wang Chen stepped out of the dean’s office, leaving behind a series of whales. He took out his phone from his pocket and dialed his father’s number. Beep beep beep. After a moment, the call connected. Xiaoyu, what made you think of? Calling me? Wang Zhanguo’s deep voice came through, and he asked with concern, are you out of money? How much do you need? I can transfer it to you. dad i still have enough money on me but there’s something wang chen directly recounted what had just happened leaving nothing out including his initial intention to donate 20 million and the altercation with dean chen every detail after wang chen finished speaking there was a moment of silence on the other end then wang jang wo’s steady voice came through you’re not hurt are you no wang chen shook his head and replied as long as you’re not hurt wang jang wo continued i’ll handle this matter just be careful and if you run out of money let me know understood Okay. Wang Chen responded before hanging up. His father didn’t say much more, just focused on sending money. The corners of Wang Chen’s mouth lifted slightly, a faint smile appearing. His father was still the same as in his previous life, always worried that he wouldn’t have enough money. Perhaps that’s the mindset of the older generation. Even though he was deeply concerned, when it came to speaking, it always turned into questions about whether he had enough money or if he was eating well. The rest of the matters didn’t need Wang Chen to worry about anymore. Wang Jianguo had made it clear that he would handle this, which meant Dean Chen and Xia Ruei Jin were completely finished. Everything would soon settle down. His father was still the same. Father, even knowing it was his fault for hitting a teacher first. He still unhesitatingly stood by Wang Chen’s side. In this life and the last, no matter how their life trajectories changed, his father’s care for Wang. Chen remained unchanged. He was still so protective. In the Dean’s office, Dean Chen stopped his pig-like screams. He touched the blood on his face and stood up. He realized he had only sustained some superficial injuries and was not seriously hurt, which relieved him. He took out his phone, preparing to call the school security to have Wang Chen detained. Dean Chen was furious beyond measure. How dare a student hit a teacher? It was simply outrageous. Once he captured Wang Chen, he would teach him a good lesson. Wait, just as the call connected before the other side could even answer, Dean Chen hung up. He recalled Wang Chen’s words before leaving. Wang Chen seemed particularly calm, as if he hadn’t taken the beating to heart at all, ordinary people wouldn’t dare to insult the school principal, let alone physically assault him. To strike someone, and remain calm afterward, without a hint of panic, suggests that this person is either insane or utterly fearless. Clearly, Wang Chen is not mentally ill, he must have some backing. Dean Chen recalled Wang Chen, arriving at school in an Apollo IE, along with the Vacheron Constantine on his wrist in his designer outfit. All of this indicated that Wang Chen was either wealthy or of noble birth. I must be overthinking this. Dean Chen felt his heart racing, blood rushing to his head, feeling somewhat flustered. He had initially thought Wang Chen was just a rich young man, but upon reflection, it might not be that simple. Dean Chen, ignoring the bloodstains on him, hurried back to his desk and opened the computer browser. Wang Jianguo? That should be the name? After some contemplation, Dean Chen uncertainly typed this name into the browser. Then he clicked. The mouse. The internet speed, usually smooth felt agonizingly slow now, he almost wanted to smash the computer on the spot. Dean Chen felt like time was dragging on endlessly. A few seconds later, the computer displayed all the people named Wang Jianguo in Hua Gua. At the top was Wang Jianguo, male, born in 1971 in Rome Province, Jincheng City, graduated from Huking University, joined the organization in 1990, started working. In 1992, 1992.07 to 1992 .12, served as assistant manager of the Israeli branch of the Hua Gua Construction Engineering Corporation. 1994.04-2005.3, served as General Manager of the Jincheng City Investment Company in. Rhone Province, Chairman of the City Investment Company. 2008.06-2009.02, served as Deputy Mayor of Jincheng City, Rhone Province. 2010.06, went into business and founded Pioneer Heavy Industry Group, Chairman of. Pioneer Heavy Industry Group Company, Limited. The group encompasses various industries, including bridge construction, road repair, energy, aerospace. It is one of the important equipment manufacturing and energy production suppliers internationally. According to relevant agency assessments, the valuation of Pioneer Heavy Industry Group has surpassed 1 trillion US dollars. The shares held by Chairman Wang Jianguo are worth at least over 1 trillion Huashia coins. Aside from this well-known information, there was nothing more to find. Dean Chen slumped in his chair, trembling all over, and finally collapsed onto the floor. Chairman of Pioneer Heavy Industry Group. A net worth in the trillions. Each piece of information felt like a heavy hammer, striking down on Dean Chen. He understood all too well what this represented, it was beyond what he could bear. Wealthy people. Dean Chen was not afraid. After all, as the dean of the business school at the Shanghai Financial University, his position was already quite high, in some places he could stand on equal footing with a county mayor. Ordinary wealthy individuals would bow and scrape before him. That’s why he dared to propose a donation of 200 million in front of Wang Chen. Even if Wang Chen got furious and reported him, it wouldn’t affect him much. However, all of this was predicated on the assumption of dealing with ordinary wealthy people. Wang Jianguo clearly did not fall into that category. Not to mention that long list of positions. There was nothing he could provoke. Even that net worth in the trillions. This was not something Dean Chen could afford to offend. When wealth reaches a certain level, it undergoes a qualitative change, money can. Indeed work wonders, and that’s not just talk. Wang Chen, merely based on his family background, was not someone Dean Chen could afford to offend. Most importantly, in just eight years, Wang Jianguo had built such a massive business empire as pioneer heavy industry group from scratch. Moreover, it involved critical fields like energy, equipment manufacturing, and aerospace. What this entailed was self-evident, this is not an industry that can simply be entered by those with ability, nor is it one that anyone can just decide to join. This proves that the Wang family holds the most original shares. Their ancestors were among that small group, who traversed the grasslands and snow mountains. Moreover, even now, the Wang family has the strongest connections and means throughout the entire Hua Gua. Only this way can they ensure that other forces cannot reach. Out to snatch the sweet cake. No wonder, no wonder Wang Chen is so confident, not putting himself in a lowly position. From beginning to end, he has maintained an air of common difference. This time, it’s not just. Stepping on a hot iron plate, it’s like directly kicking the king of hell. Death is at hand. Thinking of this, Director Chen was instantly dumbfounded. He sat pale on the floor, unable to stop saying, it’s over. Everything is over, Director, is something wrong? The security guard who received Director Chen’s call rushed over in a hurry. As soon as he entered, he was taken aback and exclaimed, Director Chen, who did this? To you? However, Director Chen did not respond to him, nearly staring blankly at the introduction of Wang Jianguo on the computer in front of him. Seeing Director Chen’s dazed expression, the security guard hurriedly helped him sit on the sofa and said, Director Chen, wait a moment, I’ll call a doctor right away. After saying that, he quickly ran out of the director’s office. After a long time, Director Chen came back to his senses and suddenly felt a piercing pain throughout his body. Yet, he seemed to be numb to it, completely disregarding it, his mind filled with thoughts of how to get through this difficult situation. He knew very well what he had done. He didn’t even hope to keep his position as the dean of the business school, he just wished to avoid being stuck in a sewing machine for the rest of his life. He no longer wanted to take revenge on Wang Chen, he only hoped that Wang Chen would let him off the hook. Director Chen was truly scared. This time, he had provoked a top-tier big shot. Find the principal. A light burst forth in Director Chen’s eyes, only. To quickly dim again, no, no. The principal can’t save me. Putting aside whether the principal could protect him, just the things he had done would make him lose his position as dean if the principal found out. After thinking it over, Director Chen realized he had no way out. In front of someone like Wang Jianguo, he was like an ant, easily crushed. After hesitating for a moment, he can only take a dead horse as a live one and pulled out his phone, dialing the number of the director of the Magic City Public Security Bureau. Hello, old Zhao, are you busy right now? The afternoon sun was warm but not scorching, gently filtering, through the mottled leaves, casting a ground of scattered gold. At the finance university, in the principal’s office, the white hair was even more striking under the sunlight. He was sitting behind a large desk, gently, massaging his temples, his gaze fixed on a stack of documents in his hand, lost in thought. Principal, all the students have arrived at school. Except for a few individual reasons, the new students are basically. All here, and the dormitory supplies and cafeteria cards have also been distributed. Across from the principal’s desk, Director Lee was reporting on the work. The military training instructors will all arrive by 8 o’clock tomorrow morning, and the military training uniforms have been notified to each class’s counselors for collection. John Wagwa looked up at Director Lee, who was reporting, nodded, and said, this time, military training must be thoroughly implemented. It absolutely cannot become a formality. We need to ensure that after 18 days of military training, all new students can gain something. one particular point to pay attention to is to ensure proper heat prevention and cooling measures. John Wegwa said seriously, I do not want any students to suffer from heat stroke during these 18 days. The logistics for heat prevention medications must be prepared properly. Understood. Director Lee nodded and said, the logistics for heat prevention medications have been fully procured, ensuring distribution to all students, you can rest assured. Principal. John Weigwa’s expression softened as he said, all school doctors must also be on standby at all times, in case of an emergency, they must ensure they can reach the scene at the first moment. Understood. Director Li responded. Suddenly, the landline on the desk rang. John Weigwa gestured for Director Li to sit down and wait a moment, then picked up the phone. Hello, this is John Weigwa. Xiao Zhang, it’s me. Un. Elderly man’s voice came from the other end of the line. Old leader. Zhang Weigua’s spirit immediately lifted, instinctively straightening his back, a smile on his face as he said, old leader, it’s been a long time since we last met. When are you free? I’d like to pay you a visit. The reason I called today is, Xiao Zhang, I’m calling to remind you. The voice on the other end paused for a moment before continuing, as the president of Shanghai Financial University, you must lead by example and fulfill your responsibilities. The students in the school are the flowers of our nation, the burden on your shoulders is not light, and you must not become complacent. John Wegwa felt a bit puzzled. Why was the old leader saying this? After thinking for a moment, he confidently replied, old leader, you can rest assured. Since I became president, I have always kept your teachings in mind. I have been hands-on and have never dared to slack off for even a moment. It’s not easy to maintain that original intention. The old leader coughed and said, the school is a pure land, you still need to impose more restrictions on the people below you. Corruption and unhealthy practices absolutely cannot appear in the school, that is the bottom line. If such problems arise in the school, what will happen to the children? What will they do when they enter society in the future? Old leader, is there something I haven’t done well? Or is there something that has happened? Zhang Weigua’s brows furrowed tightly as he nervously asked. Now he understood that this call was unusual, something must have gone wrong, otherwise the old leader wouldn’t have specifically called to admonish him. The old leader had helped him rise in his career and now he had entered the central government with a significant position. He wouldn’t call for no reason, it could only mean that he hadn’t done his job well, and someone had reported it. To higher-ups. It’s not that you haven’t done well, every step you take. I see it all. The old leader continued in his aged voice, I still have confidence in you, but the school’s administration is so large, that it’s inevitable some pests will appear. As the president, it’s understandable that you might not have the energy to manage everything. This matter is not your responsibility. However, you should have detected this unhealthy trend earlier, in the future, pay more attention. once you notice any signs you must immediately nip it in the bud prevent issues before they arise and manage them before they become chaotic at your position be cautious as it could lead to long -term consequences i will remember your teachings but what exactly is the issue john wagwa felt relieved upon hearing it wasn’t his fault you don’t need to ask too much i’ve only heard a bit of gossip so i’m letting you know in advance you need to quickly check the people around you those who have issues should be dealt with and those who need to be dismissed should be dismissed The old leader said sternly, don’t delay, handle it immediately. The higher-ups have already sent a team to conduct inspections. Once the inspection team arrives, it will be too late. John Wegwas. Heart sank. The higher -ups had sent an inspection team. What major incident had occurred to warrant such a big commotion? It seemed more complicated than it appeared. However, the old leader’s words were too vague. With so many faculty and students at the university, he hadn’t heard any rumors from below. What exactly had happened to alarm the inspection team? John Wagwa suddenly felt a sense of urgency, unsure of where to. Starge John Wagwa could only turn to his old leader for help. He pleaded, Old leader, I was promoted step by step by you. I remember back in the northwest during that year of the snow disaster, under your leadership. I have always remembered your kindness to me. Over the years, I have closely followed in your footsteps. This time, you must help me. What is this all about? The other end of the phone fell silent, and no sound. Came for a long time. John Wagwa could only wait patiently, not daring to urge. After a while, the old leader slowly said, there is a young man named Wang in your school’s junior year who seems to have had some friction with the leaders of their college, which has made this young man Wang somewhat unhappy. This matter was originally trivial and wouldn’t involve you, but now the head of the Wang family has directly called up the higher-ups. He angrily accused the school of fostering unhealthy practices, corruption, and abuse of power. The higher-ups are now taking this matter very seriously and have already dispatched an inspection team. If you can’t handle this well, it will inevitably involve you. unhealthy practices, corruption, abuse of power. Jiang Weigua’s eyes widened in shock. If this situation had occurred elsewhere, Jiang Weigua wouldn’t have been so surprised. But happening at the financial university, he never expected it. Since Jiang Weigua became the president of the financial university, he had conducted a thorough investigation of the entire staff to ensure that no pests would appear within the school. It is known that Hua Gua has a zero-tolerance policy towards schools, absolutely not allowing any problems to arise. Students are the flowers of the motherland. Harming students is akin to strangling the future of the country. If it were just a conflict between this young man Wang and the college leaders, it would be a minor issue. But if it escalated to corruption and abuse of power, the nature of the matter would be completely different. If the central inspection team were to discover this situation, even if it had nothing to do with him, he would still be labeled as ineffective. In supervision, not only would future promotions be hopeless, but even the position of president could be at risk. As John Wegwa thought of this, beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead. He couldn’t help but feel a wave of fear. Fortunately, he had the old leader’s reminder, otherwise he would have been kept in the dark. If he had waited for the central inspection team to arrive before handling this matter, it would have truly been over. Zhang Weigua wiped the sweat from his face and sincerely said, Old leader, I really thank you so much. Without your reminder, I fear my time as president would be at an end. When I return to Beijing next time, I will bring you some good wine and cigarettes and come to thank you properly. Zhang Weigua hurriedly expressed his gratitude. The old leader said, we’ll talk about that later. Put aside what you have at hand and prioritize this matter. If you handle this well, it might make your future path much smoother. The only heir of the Wang family is studying at the financial university. This is a trust in the organization. And a trust in the entire Hua Gua. You cannot let him feel disappointed. I understand. I will handle this matter immediately and will not let a single troublemaker slip through. Zhang Weiguan naturally agreed. wholeheartedly, then curiously asked, old leader, could you tell me a bit about this young man Wang from the Wang family? I want to understand in advance, so I don’t say something wrong and displease him. You really are quite the slippery one, the old leader said helplessly. There are only a few Wang families in the country that can reach the heavens. Think about the heavy industry group in the southwest. Is it this Wang family? Zhang Weigua was suddenly shocked and the expression on his face could no longer be maintained. He was taken aback. After hanging up the phone, Zhang Weigwa grabbed a tissue to wipe the sweat from his forehead, barely maintaining his composure, while his heart raced with fear. The political arena is like a treacherous battlefield. One misstep can lead to a thousand arrows piercing the heart. A slight carelessness can lead to a grave without a burial place. It is like walking on thin ice. Fortunately, the old leader’s reminder came just in time, otherwise, today would have marked the end of his tenure as principal. Southwest direction. The Wong family. Still in the heavy industry. Aside from Wang Jianguo’s family, Zhang Weigua couldn’t think of any other Wang family that could reach the heavens. On the surface, Wang Jianguo appeared to be just the chairman of a heavy industry enterprise, but anyone who truly regarded him as an ordinary businessman would be in for a rude awakening. Wang Jianguo rarely made public appearances, only showing up at central meetings, and most people would subconsciously overlook the dazzling halo surrounding him. People’s Representatives, Vice Chairman of the CPPCC, Chairman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, Zhang Weigua being within the system, naturally understood the significance of these titles and positions. He understood even more what the pioneer heavy industry group and the Wang family behind it represented. A single phone call from Wang Jianguo stirred the higher-ups who promptly dispatched an inspection team. This illustrates the Wang family’s clout. Principal? Director Li heard Zhang’s few words on the phone, and his heart surged. Like a stormy sea. The Wang family? What kind of power must the Wang family possess to instill such fear in the principal? With this thought, he became increasingly restless on the sofa and curiously asked, what happened? John Wegwe didn’t have time to respond to directorly. The moment he thought of Wang Jianguo’s son being wronged at the school he led in clashing with the dean below him, he felt a surge of panic. It also involved corruption among the department leaders. A figure like Wang Jianguo wouldn’t casually speak out about such trivial matters. Therefore, the college leaders who clashed with the Wang family’s son must have issues. Serious issues. Although he didn’t know which leaders were involved, just thinking about it made John Legua’s anger boil. It was because of these corrupt pests that he nearly lost his position. Most importantly, the higher-ups had learned about this matter. John Legua slammed the documents in front of him to the ground, pounded the desk fiercely, and roared, directorly, notify the comrades in the discipline inspection. Department to investigate everyone under me, leave no one out. If there are any problems, arrest them all, no matter the cost. Corruption? This is outrageous, I want a thorough investigation. With information provided. By the old leader in under Jiang Weig was intense pressure, within 10 minutes, the discipline inspection department had locked onto Wang Chen, Xiaoruei Jin, and Dean Chen among others. There was no way around it. The campus was filled with Wang Chen’s little fans, his fame was simply too great, driving a multi-million dollar Apollo IE to school, with a local license plate from Magic City, 88888, a Vacheron Constantin worth over 20 million, and a bodyguard always by his side. Plus, he smashed a Ferrari on the first day of school. From this, it was easy for Jiang Weigwe to deduce that Wang Chen was Wang Jianguo’s son, the only heir of the Wang family in this generation. Once Wang Chen’s identity was confirmed, the remaining matters were left to the comrades in the discipline inspection department to follow the clues and begin a detailed investigation of Dean Chen and Xia Ruejin. Soon, the conflicts between Wang Chen and the father-son duo of Xia Wenchuan and Xia Ruejin, as well as Wang Chen’s visit to the business school dean’s office, all came to Jiang Weigwe’s attention. These were events that had already occurred in plain sight, so there was no need for excessive investigation. Zhang Weigwa looked at the documents in his hand, his brows furrowing deeply at the detailed records of the incident and the students’ evaluations of Shah Ruejin, especially the reports from impoverished students against Shah Ruejin. Zhang Weigwa was filled with rage, a fire burning fiercely within him. Shah Ruejin actually withheld financial aid from impoverished students right under his nose and even bullied and harassed poor female students. Dean Chen, as the head of the college, ignored the students’ reports.as Xia Ruei Jin’s protector, he had often received Xia Ruei Jin’s favors, even towards female students, truly a nest of snakes and rats. No wonder Wang Jianguo reported to the higher-ups that the university was rife with unhealthy practices, corruption, and abuse of power. John Wegwa had been in the officialdom for decades, so it was not hard to imagine what Dean Chen and Xia Ruei Jin had done to these students. Dean Chen, in such a high position, could he really covet the meager scholarships of impoverished students? If he truly wanted to embezzle, with the university’s annual budget exceeding hundreds of billions, where could he not take from? Zhang Weigwe. Trembled with rage, he knew nothing of these matters, yet they were happening right on the university campus. Countless impoverished students were suffering, their pain unutterable. Scum. Degenerate. Zhang Weigwe tore the documents in his hands to shreds. He stormed out, notifying the leaders of various departments, and a group of them gathered at the door of the business school dean’s office. Bang. Without saying a word, Zhang Weigwe kicked the door open. Upon closer inspection, he found Dean Chen sitting dazed behind his desk, his eyes fixed on the computer screen. There were still traces of blood on him, looking utterly disheveled. He had completely lost his former authority. It’s over, old Zhao isn’t answering my calls, how could it be so quick, he must have found out. Dean Chen murmured. The loud sound of the door being kicked open snapped Dean Chen. Back to reality. He looked up and saw Zhang Weigua standing at the door with a group of school leaders. Zhang Weigua’s face was dark, staring at him intently. Dean Chen hurriedly said, Principal, you, what brings? You here. Zhang Weigua strode up to Dean Chen, grabbing his collar, and angrily said, Chen Yang, you really have some nerve, look at the good deeds you’ve done. I promoted you to this position because I thought, you were capable that you could make the business school develop better. And this is how you repay me? This is how you treat these students? Chen Yang, you really are something. Zhang Weigua’s trembling voice, echoed in the corridor, and the office outside was crowded with teachers watching the spectacle. They whispered among themselves, pointing fingers at Dean Chen. Dean Chen looked at the furious Zhang Weigwa, still holding, onto a glimmer of hope, and argued, Principal, what are you talking about? I don’t understand. I have always cared for the students, haven’t I done anything wrong? Zhang Weigwa’s teeth ground together, and he, pushed Chen Yong to the floor, scolding, at this point, you’re still arguing. The calls from above are already coming down on me. Do you think I don’t know? Dean Chen was instantly pale with fear, trembling like a leaf. He knew this matter could not be hidden any longer. Dean Chen did not expect the news to reach Jiang Weigua so quickly. Wang Chen’s speed of action far exceeded his imagination, leaving him no time to devise a countermeasure. Thud. Dean Chen suddenly knelt before Jiang Weigua. Like a drowning person grasping for the last straw, he clutched Jiang Weigua’s thigh and cried out loudly, it was Wang Chen who wanted to donate to the school, I just had a fleeting thought, I didn’t embezzle anything before. I didn’t know Wang Chen had such a powerful background, if I had known, I wouldn’t have dared to provoke him. Principal, please save. Me, I’ll apologize to Wang Chen, I’ll do anything, just let me go. I’m willing to give up this Dean position. At this point, Dean Chen was still desperately struggling, trying to muddle through. As long as Wang Chen was willing to let him off, his dealings with Xia Ruei Jin would not be exposed. Otherwise, once a thorough investigation was conducted, this mistake would not simply result in suspension. He would spend the rest of his life in prison. His lifetime of reputation and effort would be ruined in an instant. That was why Chen Yang would make such a display. Ha, still desperately struggling. He truly is a person who has been in the officialdom for decades. It seems that you won’t repent until the very last moment. John Weigua broke free from Director Chen’s grass, lowering his head to look at Chen Yang, a cold glint spreading in his gaze. Since you don’t want to speak, then you can talk to the comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission. Once the investigation is clear, whether you have been wronged or not, the truth will naturally come to light. Security, first control him for me and directly hand him over to the Discipline Inspection Office. Let the comrades from the Discipline Inspection Office investigate thoroughly. The security immediately stepped forward, ignoring Chen Yang’s struggles, and firmly pinned him down. Let me go. Get lost. Chen Yang struggled violently. He knew clearly that there was still a chance to plead before Zhang Weigua if he was investigated. By the discipline inspection office, everything would be over. He was already not clean. How could he withstand an investigation? Zhang Weigua looked at Chen Yang, who was struggling in front of him, the former. Glamour gone, like a wriggling maggot. His gaze was icy, and the anger in his mind had yet to dissipate. Such scum is not worth mourning. He almost dragged himself down with him, if it weren’t for the timely reminder. From the old leader, he would probably be finished too. Zhang Weigua still felt a lingering fear. How could he help Chen Yang? Moreover, facing the Wang family, this behemoth, it was not something he could withstand. Hurry up and take him away. Zhang Weigua disregarded Chen Yang’s pleas and ordered the security to take him away quickly, lest he affect his mood. Chen Yang immediately quieted down, no longer struggling. He knew he was completely finished, all because of his momentary greed. Recalling what Wang Chen had said to him, he and Xia Ruei Jin’s actions towards those impoverished students would all be uncovered. If he had known Wang Chen had such a powerful background, he wouldn’t have been so eager to fawn over him, let alone openly accept bribes from him. He only felt deep regret. If he had known earlier, it would have been so good to be a stable. Dean. Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world. Not everyone can be like Wang Chen, favored by the system, reversing time to start over. Notify everyone, all school leaders and teachers. Come to a meeting. John Wegwa said to the group of school leaders in front of him, everyone? The school leaders were immediately startled. That’s right. John Wegwa’s gaze was like lightning, staring fiercely. At this group of people as he said, we have encountered a major problem in our ranks and everyone must attend. Those with a guilty conscience, confess on your own. Otherwise, it will be too late. I want to root out all the pests. Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I won’t hesitate. In the office of the Finance and Economics College. Director Shah Ruejin was looking at the data on the computer, which detailed the impoverished student data from 2018. The quality of this year’s students is quite good. As usual, Shah Ruejin carefully browsed through the photos on the computer, letting out a lewd laugh, look at this. Face, delicate and tender, really tempting. Knock knock. Just as he was engrossed, there was a knock at the door. Shah Ruejin said unhappily, who is it? But there was no response from outside, and as he wondered, the knocking continued. Who is knocking? Can’t you at least respond? Shah Ruejin could only helplessly close the computer, stand up, and open the door. What met his eyes were several middle-aged men in short-sleeved shirts, led by a man in his 40s, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and having a square face. He looked at him with a serious expression. Upon seeing them, Shah Ruejin was immediately startled. Aren’t these people from the school’s discipline inspection office? What are they doing here? The director Shah, who had been showing off in front of the students, dared not be careless in front of these people. With a guilty conscience, he couldn’t stand straight. Hello, comrades. Shah Ruejin put on a flattering smile and quickly said to them please come in, is there something you need? The leading man just looked at him without responding, his expression. Unchanged as he said, you are the director Shah Ruejin of the business school, right? Yes. I am Shah Ruejin. He answered cautiously. Shah Ruejin was flustered, this process felt so familiar. It couldn’t be. Alright. The man with a square face said, we are from the discipline inspection office. We received a report that you are suspected of corruption, bribery, and other illegal activities such as molesting and raping. Young girls, you need to come with us. No, this is a misunderstanding. Xia Rui Jin’s eyes widened in shock, his forehead drenched in sweat. He couldn’t understand how the discipline inspection office knew about his actions. Suddenly, he recalled what Wang Chen had said, cherish your current freedom. It couldn’t be him, could it? He quickly dismissed the thought, it was impossible. Wang Chen was just a student, how? Could he possibly know about what Shah Ruejin had done? Even to the extent of having the discipline inspection office investigate him. The leading man said, whether it’s a misunderstanding or not, you’ll find out when. You get back. Take him away. After saying that, several men behind him grabbed Shah Ruejin’s arms and began to lead him outside. This must be someone slandering me. Comrade, let go of me. Shah Ruejin was terrified. Struggling continuously, but his trembling limbs had no strength at all. He was dragged out of the department head’s office like a dead dog. His disheveled appearance caused many students to take out their phones to photograph him and upload it to the campus network. Many students loathed Shah Ruejin. They wished he would die immediately. The more miserable Shah Ruejin looked, the happier they became, as if they had just downed a bottle of ice-cold Pepsi on a hot summer day. It was utterly refreshing. The leading man ignored Shah Ruejin and turned to the students in front of him, smiling as he said, Students, please step aside. We are from the… Discipline Inspection Office, and we have thoroughly investigated the crimes committed by Shah Ruejin. I guarantee he will never get out for the rest of his life. These words violated relevant regulations and were not something he should have said. However, Shah Ruejin’s actions had made him very angry, prompting him to say these things. That’s great. This scumbag has finally been caught, long live the school. Go die, I’ll smash. You, you garbage. Upon hearing this, the students erupted in cheers. Many students who had been bullied by Shah Ruejin took out whatever they had and threw it at him. They all wore excited expressions. Feeling that this garbage was finally going to face legal consequences. Xia Ruejin was dragged along, pointed it by passing students, allowing them to throw milk tea and other items at him. He no longer cared about losing. Face. The fear inside him made it hard to breathe, recalling the things he had done, which could at least lead to a life sentence. Xia Ruejin’s mind flashed with Wang Chen’s words again. He suddenly struggled with. Excitement. It wasn’t me. It wasn’t me. You must have made a mistake. Let me go. The square-faced man looked at Xia Ruejin’s hysterical appearance. If they hadn’t already gathered all the evidence, it was hard to imagine that a department head of a nationally renowned university could do such disgusting things. After a while, they arrived at the discipline inspection office. Pushing the door open, Zhang Weigwe and a few others were sitting inside. Xia Ruejin, who had been struggling continuously, suddenly quieted down. He stared intensely at one of the figures, his eyes filled with rage. Wang Chen. How could he be here? Wang Chen looked. At him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile. What’s wrong? Surprised to see me? Wang Chen said lightly. It’s you, you orchestrated all of this. Xia Rue Jin’s legs went weak, collapsing to the ground as he looked at Wang Chen. It really was Wang Chen, Zhang Weigwa glanced at Xia Rue Jin, then continued to flip through the documents in his hand. These were the evaluations and reports he had. Collected about Xia Rue Jin from the students. Withholding financial aid and scholarships from impoverished students. Insulting students at will. molesting and coercing female students, coaxing female students to accompany Chen Yang and other school leaders for meals and bed. Xia Ruejin and director Xia truly wielded their limited power to the fullest. After reading through it, Jiang Weigua felt that the pages were filled with the blood, tears, and suffering of countless students, how many youthful dreams had been ruthlessly trampled upon. His hands couldn’t help but tremble slightly, and his heart boiled with anger. There wasn’t a single positive evaluation of him in the entire text. How did he become the head of this department? Jiang Weigua simply couldn’t fathom that such a person was hidden under his command. According to the investigation, there were not just one or two people like Xia Rue Jin in the college. Some school leaders and a few teachers were colluding with Xia Rue Jin, acting in concert. However, Xia Rue Jin was the typical example, acting recklessly, resorting to any means to satisfy his twisted desires. How many innocent girls had he harmed? And this shocking record before him made Jiang Weigua feel a chill all over, deeply aware of the heavy burden on his shoulders. Fortunately, the old leader had reminded him in time. If the inspection team were to find out about Xia Ruejin’s behavior, he feared that on the day of the incident he would be buried alongside Chen Yang and Xia Ruejin. Xia Ruejin. Zhang Weigwe threw the documents in front of Xia Ruejin and shouted sternly, Do you know your mistakes? Xia Ruejin trembled as he picked up the documents, his face pale as paper, sweat rolling, down his forehead, and suddenly his head spun. He opened his mouth, wanting to argue a few points, but found himself utterly powerless, unable to make a sound. Those shameful deeds he had buried deep in his heart, thinking they would never be exposed, were now laid bare one by one, like sharp blades, ruthlessly shattering him. The extreme fear made him unable to control his body. Wang Chen slowly stepped forward, crouching down to, meet Xia Ruei Jin’s gaze. Do you think you can cover the sky with one hand? Wang Chen’s eyes were filled with coldness and disdain, wrong, justice may be delayed, but it is never absent. From the first time you reached, for the financial aid, the first time you spoke disrespectfully to a student, your fate today was sealed. At this moment, more and more teachers and students gathered outside, whispering to each other, condemning Shah Rui-jin’s actions. You’re doing great, not only taking bribes but also daring to lay hands on female students? As the head of the department, instead of thinking about how to benefit the students, you abuse your limited power. Zhang Weigwa saw him and was filled with rage. The more he spoke, the angrier he became. You think being a department head makes you important? If you don’t regard the students, do you still see me as the principal or even the law? Lucky for you, you’re just a department head. If you were in my position, wouldn’t you turn the entire finance university upside down? Don’t forget, the power you hold was granted. To you by whom and what oath you took in front of the national flag. Shah Ruejin opened his mouth but remained silent. This time, Zhang Weigwa was determined. He prepared to thoroughly clean up among the school. Leaders and teachers. He absolutely could not allow such things to happen again. How will he be dealt with? Director Lee of the school looked at Shah Ruejin who was sprawled on the ground and then spoke. Zhang Weigwa. cast a disgusted glance at Shah Ruejin, then shifted his gaze away. Since entering the officialdom, he had remained uncorrupted, always adhering to his principles and bottom line, never swayed by the temptations of power. As a member of the school leadership, Shah Ruejin not only lacked any awareness of serving the people but instead unleashed his personal desires upon the students. If this were the 70s or 80s, he would have drawn his gun and executed him long ago. First, dismiss him and investigate. John Wegwa said coldly, handed over to the judicial authorities according to the procedure. The law will give a fair judgment for every crime. He has committed. Comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission please thoroughly investigate the personnel appointments, fund flows, and project approvals throughout the school. We must not overlook any corner. That may harbor corruption. Principal, I was wrong. Please save me. Upon hearing this, Shah Ruejin, not knowing where the strength came from, shouted loudly. He cried out with snot and tears, I was wrong. I won’t. Dare again. Just let me off this time. I beg you, I really know I was wrong. The coat of the department head, which he had relied on all along, was now stripped away by Jiang Weigwa’s words. This instantly brought him back to his true self. Xia Ruejin felt as if he had returned to when he first came to the University of Finance and Economics. Weak, inferior, helpless. He kept bowing his head to Jiang Weigwa, repeatedly saying. He knew he was wrong. Jiang Weigwa coldly said, you only know that you’re finished. Xia Ruejin’s vision went black, and he fainted immediately. Seeing this, Jiang Weigwa sighed deeply. Until now, Xia Ruejin showed no. sign of remorse. He was merely afraid of being dismissed and investigated. Clearly, he only cared about the official hat on his head. As for the mistakes he made, he had no intention of repenting at all. Perhaps, in his heart, he thought that what he did was nothing significant, just trivial matters. If I had known today, why would I have acted that way back then? Zhang Weigua said coldly. Then he turned to the few people in front of him and said, take him away. Zhang Weigua turned to Wang Chen, who was sitting aside. What he did today, although done in anger, was largely because of Wang Chen and the Wang family behind him. If he didn’t do this to show Wang Chen, how could he satisfy him? After all, no matter what mistakes Xia Ruejin and Chen Yang made, the law would punish them, and there was no need for him to get so worked up. Clearly, Wang Chen’s opinion was more important to Zhang Weigua. Wang, you can rest assured, Xia Ruejin and Chen Yang will face legal consequences. Wang Chen smiled faintly and said, justice will not be absent, but it may be delayed. However, is delayed justice still justice? Analyzing from a philosophical perspective, ideals and reality are constantly in conflict and balance. In an ideal state, justice is immediate, evil is punished, and social. Order is maintained. But in reality, everything is interconnected and complex, human cognition and action have limitations, and justice can only move forward through twists and turns. Therefore, it is human nature. This question has no answer. The outcome for Sha Rue Jin is evident. Is it pitiful? Wang Chen does not think so. Whether in his past life or this life, it is all Sha Rue Jin’s own doing. As an adult, one should be responsible for their actions. If you get hit, you must stand straight. If you make a mistake, you must accept punishment. In the principal’s office. Wang, I have to thank you this time. Zhang Weig was said to Wang Chen. In front of him, feeling emotional. If it weren’t for you reporting what these people did in time, I would still be kept in the dark. Those students, who knows when they would be able to escape the harm of these demons. Fortunately, your reminder was timely, preventing more students from being affected. Otherwise, I would never have a moment’s peace in my life. Zhang Weigua’s gratitude towards Wang Chen was heartfelt. Wang. Zhang Mo’s phone call reached the higher-ups, startling them and sending an inspection team. But this also rang an alarm for Zhang Weigua. Without this reminder, if Xia Ruejin and Chen Yang became even more reckless and eventually caused a major incident, any remedy he tried to implement later would be futile. Fortunately, it is not too late now. Wang Chen gave him the opportunity for timely remedy. Taking this opportunity, it’s just right to clean up the pests within the school to prevent any future incidents. Principal, you’re being too serious. As my alma mater, maintaining the integrity of the university is also helping myself, Wang Chen. Smiled. It’s not easy for you to have this mindset, Zhang Weguicide, since its establishment, the university has developed for over a hundred years, nurturing countless talents for the country. If I fail in my supervision, I would be letting down the nation and the people. In my heart, students are like my own children. If the school were filled with outstanding students like you, I believe such incidents would not happen. Again in the future, Zhang Weigua said, shaking his head, that said, it’s still my lack of oversight that has given these people an opportunity. Wang Chen glanced at Zhang Weigua. Damn. This old man is taking advantage of me. Wang Chen looked at Zhang Weigua calmly and said, Principal, you are so busy every day managing the needs of tens of thousands of teachers and students at the university. It’s inevitable that such things happen without timely detection, as long as they are handled promptly. Student Wang, you can rest assured, Zhang Weigwa said with a serious expression, from now on, I will strengthen supervision. Such problems will absolutely not occur again, at least not during my tenure. Principal, I want to discuss the matter of donating to the school and I believe you already know the reason, Wang Chen smiled, it’s just that my conversation with Dean Chen wasn’t very pleasant and there were some misunderstandings. Since he’s also here, let’s talk to him about it. How do you think we should handle this donation of 100 million? Wang. Chen directly raised the donation to 100 million, also because the matter had been resolved, and he was very satisfied. Although Jianwei Guo was so polite to him, a large part of it was due to the Wang family. Behind him, this colossal entity. But he also had to show some acknowledgement. Moreover, for Wang Chen, is there really a difference between 20 million and 100 million? With hundreds of billions in cash-in, his bank account, 100 million is just a drop in the bucket for him. What he cares about now are only the system points. However, John Weigua personally invited him to the Discipline Inspection Commission office, to watch him deal with Xia Ruei Jin. For Wang Chen, that was giving him enough face, and naturally, he would reciprocate. Saying more would be empty words, only money and interests are the most solid things. Student. Wang, let’s not mention the donation anymore. With such an incident happening, what face do I have as the principal to accept your donation? John Weigua frowned and refused, moreover, 100 million is too much, this. This is just a small token of my appreciation, Wangchen said, slightly taken aback, but his smile remained. He gently waved his hand and said, Principal, you’re being too formal. No matter what happened before, my intention to donate has never changed. 100 million is just a drop in the ocean for me, but if invested in the university and used for the younger students, that would be extraordinary. As a part of the school, it is my duty to contribute as much as I can. Zhang Weigwa showed a hesitant expression, his hands unconsciously clasping and then releasing. Finally, he sighed and said, having a student like you is a great honor for both the university and me. Since you insist so much, I will shamelessly accept it. Although the state allocates funds to the university every year, over the years, many facilities need maintenance and repair, and this is a crucial time for funding. 100 million is not a small amount. I will have someone keep detailed records of how this fund is used for your review. I will absolutely not let your money be used inappropriately. On behalf of all the teachers and students of the university, I thank you. To show our gratitude, once this matter is settled, I will hold a grand donation ceremony for you. At the school, Zhang Weigwa smiled as he spoke to Wang Chen. It’s just a small matter, no need to let the whole school know. I’m a rather low-key person. Wang Chen quickly waved his hand, smiling humbly. He wasn’t donating for fame, and besides, he had no need to seek recognition in this way. He was already quite popular on the campus network today. Everywhere he went, students pointed at him, which was quite bothersome. He just… Wanted to keep a low profile, low profile, and again, low profile. There’s really no need for this donation ceremony. My intention was simply to do something substantial for my alma mater, not to create a spectacle. And attract unnecessary attention. Zhang Weigua looked deeply at Wang Chen and said, to act without boasting, to achieve without relying on it, to conduct oneself with humility and courtesy, that is the demeanor of a. Gentlemen. Having students like you at the university is truly a blessing for the institution and a fortune for Hua Gua. Today’s young people really surpass their predecessors. Ah, I really am getting old. Not. At all, we must also thank the school’s nurturing and the principal’s hard work. Without you, how could the university have so many outstanding students? Wang Chin smiled shyly, his face not flushing nor breathless. Saying a few good words wouldn’t cost him anything. He still had two years of study at the university and he would inevitably have to deal with Zhang Weigua. Even if Zhang Weigua was just a small fry for the Wang family, as the principal of the university his words still carried weight in this small territory. He had to be a bit polite, making things convenient for others was also making things convenient for himself. Alright, alright. John Weigua laughed heartily, very pleased. Wang Chen’s words satisfied him greatly. Principal, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave. Wang Chen stood up and said. Stay a little longer, don’t rush. To leave. John Weigua quickly urged, whenever you have time, come to my office to chat. I’m getting old and I enjoy talking with young people like you. Is that really appropriate? After all, there are so many. Things at school, and you can’t handle them all. Wangchen paused slightly, a hesitant look on his face as he spoke. What’s the big deal? The principal’s position isn’t as busy as you think. Besides, with so many. School leaders not doing anything, should I do it all? Whenever you have time, come and chat with me. Don’t worry about me being busy, I have plenty of time. Well, alright, just don’t find me annoying, principal. Don’t call me principal, that’s too formal. I’m already the age of your father. If you don’t mind, just call me Uncle Jiang. Then I’ll call you Uncle Jiang. Good, good, don’t leave just yet. Jiang Weigua. Said, pulling Wang Chen to the tea table in the office. Come, have a cup of tea with me. This is a good tea I’ve treasured for many years. I usually don’t take it out. Give it a try. Ding. The system detected that. The host spent 100 million and the double cashback is 200 million. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10,000 system points. Three days later, the school broadcast announced. All faculty and students, notice on the serious disciplinary and legal violations of Chen Yang, Xiaoruei Jin, and others. Shenyang, the dean of the School of Business, should have taken on the responsibility of leading the development of the college. However, he has deviated from the original intention of education and has seriously violated national laws and regulations, organizational discipline, integrity discipline, and work style discipline during his tenure. Shenyang has lost the basic moral bottom line, having repeatedly engaged in embezzlement and bribery during his tenure. His actions have violated the Hua Gua criminal law and other relevant laws with extremely severe nature. The school has suspended him and handed over the case to the relevant units for investigation. Shah Ruejin, as the department head, has also betrayed. The trust of faculty and students and the organization’s expectations.He had long insulted poor students, trampled on their dignity, and resorted to unscrupulous means for his own selfish desires committing serious crimes, such as coercion and bullying female students. Such behavior not only goes against the principles of equality and care in education. The school has suspended him and handed the case over to the relevant authorities. for investigation. The occurrence of this incident is a failure on the part of the school and we sincerely apologize to all the students. We also hope that students can provide valuable feedback and criticism to the school. Once the school’s announcement was released, the entire faculty and student body was in an uproar. Most students had no idea what had happened. How could there be such a big scandal? Right at the start of the semester, it felt as if an earthquake had struck the school, with deans, directors, and teachers being punished one after another. Did I miss something? Great, that idiot Xia Ruejin finally got what he deserved. I’ve disliked him for a long time, always showing off. I have evidence of Xia Ruejin’s insults towards me, I’m going to report it. Xia Wenchuan has been so arrogant just because his dad is a department head, let’s see how he acts now. On the school forum, students were actively commenting, and occasionally, relevant victims came forward to share their experiences. Some students looked completely bewildered, not knowing what was going on, and hurriedly scrolled through to find out. Jung Jin noticed that most students were clueless about the situation, and he smirked, typing a line of text on his phone, and sending it out. This incident actually has something to do with Wang Chen. If it weren’t for him, Xia Rui Jin and Chen Yang would still be getting away with it. The forum immediately exploded. Wang Chen. Again? They were puzzled, it was one thing for the campus news to be filled with Wang Chen’s name these days, but how did the corruption of Chen Yang and Xia Rui Jin relate to him? How could he be involved? I’m in the same dorm as Wang Chen, do you think I’m lying to you? Zheng Zheng commented again, Wang Chen and I have been roommates for two years, we’re buddies, and I know him pretty well. He then detailed the events leading up to the incident. Wang Chen and Xia Wenchuan fought on the basketball court in the afternoon, and then Xia Rui Jin said he would expel Wang Chen. After that, someone saw Wang Chen go to the dean’s office. And now, the announcement comes out, did they catch them all? Wang Chen is something else. Think about it. Wang Chen’s family must be extraordinary, he might even have connections up top. Yeah, if someone like Dean Chun is involved. As these messages broke out, they quickly climbed the trending list. Meanwhile, Wang Chen’s classmates all came forward to say how close they were to him. This further confirmed that he was. Not lying. The campus forum of the Finance University was once again buzzing with discussions. I thought Wang Chen was just rich, I didn’t expect him to be this impressive. If it weren’t for him, who knows how many. Students would have been bullied by Xia Ruejin and his gang. This is not just impressive, this is beyond impressive. I declare, Wang Chen is now my idol. Hell, I feel like I’m melting, how can he be so. Perfect. He is quite handsome. But not to this extent. Hee hee. 10 days. Give me 10 days, and I will win over my idol. The forum was basically filled with praises for Wang Chen, and the few voices of doubt were drowned out by the wave of admiration. Especially the girls, who were so excited, it was as if they had encountered their favorite celebrity. The downfall of Dean Chen and Xia Rue Jin made many girls develop a fondness for Wang Chen. College students are at the most just stage of their lives. In this context, Wang Chen’s pursuit of justice naturally made him their idol and hero. Coupled with the Apollo i.e. he drives and the local license plate 88888, speculations about his background have increased significantly. Is it really that enjoyable to show off? After posting, Zhang Zhen felt refreshed and couldn’t help but say, Wang Chen won’t let us talk about it, hee hee, let’s see how he can keep a low profile now. After attending a few classes, Wang Chen, unable to endure the hypnotic atmosphere, went downstairs to the teaching building. He looked at the posts about himself on the campus forum, his expression somewhat complex. He originally just wanted to see if anyone was still attacking Ren Ningxiong. Well, now the forum is filled with posts about him. On the internet, students have cast aside their usual reserved demeanor, and the replies below are extremely bold, some even quite shocking. Among them, the comments from girls are particularly eye-catching. Hidden behind their online identities, they have found a protective shell that allows them to express themselves freely, revealing sides of themselves that are usually deeply buried. Their true colors as infatuated girls are laid bare. When they start to drive the conversation, they leave no room for the boys. Even he, having experienced the era of the internet’s great openness finds it a bit overwhelming. Watching. Others gain fame online usually feels good, but when countless girls are driving the conversation about him, it’s not so pleasant anymore. Wang Chin shook his head, turned off his phone, and decided not to think about it. Anymore. Let them be. In the internet age, information updates rapidly, in a few days, these girls will calm down on their own. Wang Chin pondered for a moment, it was almost noon. Should he go to the cafeteria for lunch? Before the new students’ military training ended? Just thinking about the taste of the food prepared by the cafeteria chefs made him feel nauseous. Forget it. His standards for taste aren’t high, he just wants the flavor of home-cooked meals. However, the food at the university cafeteria is hardly fit for human consumption. In his previous life, after struggling in society for over a decade, he had never eaten anything so unpalatable. Few things left a lasting impression on him, but the university cafeteria was one of them. Just thinking about it made him feel queasy. Wang Chen immediately turned around and walked towards the parking. Lot, deciding it was better to go out for lunch. After a while, he arrived in front of his beloved Apollo I .E. He took out his keys and was about to unlock the car. Wang Chen. At that moment, someone called his name. From behind and patted him on the shoulder. You must be Wang Chen. I just went to your classroom and didn’t find you. Turns out you were here. Wang Chen turned around. What met his eyes was a young man with prominent cheekbones and a gaunt face. He stood at least 1 .8 meters tall, but his frame was extremely thin, probably weighing no more than 120 pounds. A gust of wind could almost blow him away. He wore a deep gray baseball cap, pulled down low, with a few strands of dry yellow hair peeking out from under the brim. His upper body was covered by a loose black short-sleeved t-shirt with an exaggerated graffiti skull printed on the front. On the bottom, he wore military green cargo pants with a thin anklet that sparkled with each step. He looked excited, scratched his head, and said to Wang Chen, I also looked for you in your dorm, but you weren’t there. So I thought I’d check the parking area. I didn’t expect to find you here. Who are you? Wang Chen asked seriously. My name is Yao Jinglong, and I’m a freshman. What do you need from me? Wang Chen was a bit puzzled. He didn’t remember having any dealings with this person. It’s like this, you eliminated a threat for all the teachers and students in the school, and I admire someone like you. In our northeastern region, people like that would be beaten to death with sticks. Yao Jinglong said with a face full of satisfaction, it’s just that you made the first move, otherwise, if Xia Rui Jin and Chen Yang fell into my hands, I’d have to give them a good beating to vent my anger. I was just thinking, you seem to suit my taste, so I wanted to get to know you. Why aren’t you wearing your military training uniform as a new student? Shouldn’t you be in military training right now? Who participates in military training? It’s just a matter of a few words. Yao Jinglong said enthusiastically, it’s mealtime, let me treat you to dinner. No need for a meal. Wang. Chen looked at the young man in front of him, his expression shifting slightly. A matter of a few words? It seems this person is not simple at all. Wang Chen then activated his true eye to look at Yao Jinglong, name. Yao Jinglong, age, 19, height, 182 centimeters, charm, 72, physique, 65, favorability, 75, skills, advanced socializing, intermediate gaming, let’s be friends and get to know each other better, Yao Jinglong said. With excessive enthusiasm, but the 75 points of favorability also put Wang Chen at ease. It’s just a small matter. Wang Chen said lightly, that Xia Rue Jin will inevitably meet his end for his wrongdoing, even without. Me, there will be someone else to deal with him. He will be finished sooner or later. You’re right. When it came to Xia Rue Jin and the others, Yao Jinglong gritted his teeth and said, just a little department. Head, and he dares to flaunt his power in school. It’s just this bastard was unlucky to run into you, otherwise, I wouldn’t let him off. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, looking at him with suspicion. Could it be that, in his previous life, this guy had a run-in with Xia Rue Jin? Wang Chen recalled slightly and suddenly realized that when Xia Ruejin was taken away in his previous life, he was covered in injuries, bloodied all over. Could it be that this kid did it? Are you from Northeast China? Wang Chen asked, listening to his accent. In his previous life, he had kept a low profile at school and didn’t know Yao Jinglong. He had only occasionally seen him on the campus forum. He was a rich second generation, and it was said that his background was not simple. Other than that, there was no other information. There were simply too many rich second generations. in the school, and Wang Chen hadn’t paid much attention to it at the time. I’m from Northeast China, it’s my first time in Magic City. After saying this, Yao Jinglong slapped his forehead and said, alright, I almost forgot, let’s exchange contact information. After that, he took out his phone and, after a bit of operation, showed Wang Chen the Feixing QR code. Alright, let me scan you. Wang Chen took out his phone and added, Yao Jinglong is a friend on Feixing. Yao Jinglong extended his hand and said, from now on, we are friends. Just for what you did today, if there’s anything in the future, just let me know. I promise I won’t be vague. Come on, let’s not talk about that, I’m taking you out to eat. No need for a meal. Wang Chen shook his head and said, this isn’t anything, I’m just standing up for myself. Wang Chen wasn’t the type to seek. Credit. This incident could be considered Xia Rue Jin’s bad luck for provoking him, otherwise, Wang Chen wouldn’t have thought of dealing with him so soon. Let’s not talk about that, at least I feel better now. That. Xia Rue Jin and Chen Yang are in prison, and that makes me feel good. Yao Jinglong said recklessly, since we are classmates, give me a chance to treat you to a meal. You wouldn’t refuse that, would you? Let’s eat. Outside the school, it will also let me experience your Apollo i.e. This car is a limited edition that money can’t buy. I was thinking of buying a Ferrari LaFerrari before, but my family absolutely refused. Today, I want to fully experience the charm of a supercar. Yao Jinglong had a very outgoing personality. Facing Wang Chen, he was quite relaxed and lively. No need to eat outside, let’s go to the cafeteria instead. There’s no need to go out, it’s too much trouble. Seeing Yao Jinglong so enthusiastic, Wang Chen found it hard to refuse. What’s the big deal? Although I can’t compare to you, I still have enough money to take you out for a meal. Yao Jinglong said nonchalantly. How about this, you should be more familiar with Magic City than I am, so you pick the place, and I’ll take care of the bill. What do you think? The food in the cafeteria is hardly fit for human consumption. If I invite you to eat there, people will laugh their heads off, he added. Ah, then let’s go. We can just grab something outside. Let’s go, get in the car. Wang Chen smiled and said no more, pulling out the keys to unlock the car door. Yao Jinglong looked at the sleek seagull car door in front of him, his face filled with excitement as he admired the cool sports car, clicking his tongue in. Amazement. So cool. Yao Jinglong plopped down into the passenger seat, taking in the interior, his envy no longer hidden in his gaze. He said to Wang Chen, no wonder it’s a supercar worth tens of millions. Once I. Graduate, my dad has to get me one too. V room. Wang Chen lightly pressed the accelerator, and the Apollo IE roared to life. They sped out of the school. However, since they were still on campus, even with his excellent driving skills, Wang Chen couldn’t go too fast. But Yao Jinglong was still excited, shouting in delight. After a while, the car stopped in front of a restaurant not far from the school. Yao Jinglong got out, feeling a bit light-headed under the gaze of passers-by. He threw an arm around Wang Chen’s shoulder and said excitedly, Come on, what do you want to eat? Order whatever you like. We’re not coming back until we’re drunk. Wang Chen said, somewhat speechless. No drinking, I still have to drive later. How can that be? Yao Jinglong grinned widely, showing off his big teeth, and said irritably, we just met today, shouldn’t we drink a bit? Come on, let’s go inside first. Wang Chen and Yao Jinglong walked toward the restaurant together. It was already mealtime, and the dining hall was packed. Yao Jinglong asked the waiter, but there were no private rooms available, so the two had to sit in the main hall. As soon as they sat down, Yao Jinglong shouted, waiter, we want to order. A girl approached from a distance. She had a graceful figure, her waist so slender, that it seemed two hands could easily encircle it. With her hair in a bun and wearing a simple short-sleeved shirt, she couldn’t hide her impressive figure. A yellow apron was tied around her waist giving her a simple yet charming appearance. Wang Chen’s gaze met hers. She held a menu and walked over, saying, Wang Chen, what a coincidence. What brings you here to eat? It was none other than Ren Ning Xiong, the person Wang Chen, found troublesome. He couldn’t help but sigh, the world was indeed small. He never expected to run into her just by casually choosing a restaurant. The first time was in the cafeteria, and now it was in a restaurant, what? A twist of fate. In your impression, am I not allowed to eat in places like this? Wang Chen asked. With your wealth, it’s indeed rare to see you in such places, Ren Ningxian replied with a slight smile. Are you working part-time here? Wang Chen asked curiously. Yes, I didn’t have classes this morning, so I came here to work part-time, Ren Ningxian said, placing the menu in front of Wang Chen. Her expression was. Very natural, showing no embarrassment about Wang Chen seeing her working part-time. I originally had a job at the school cafeteria, but recently there has been a lot of gossip about me on campus, so my boss asked me. To take a few days off, Ren Ningxiang said with a hint of frustration. I had no choice but to find a job outside the school for now. Wang Chen fell silent. He knew very well what kind of gossip Ren Ningxiang was. Referring to. It was somewhat related to him that she lost her job. Actually, it’s not too bad. This place is quite close to the school, so it’s convenient to go back to the dorm. It’s just a bit busy during meal times, but the rest of the time is quite relaxed and it won’t interfere with my studies at all. Ran Ningxuan chuckled lightly, waving her hand dismissively, although it’s a bit more tiring here than working at school, and the pay is a bit lower, I also have more free time. In my spare time, I can give students extra classes or take more dance lessons, and I actually earn more than before. Ran Ningxuan grinned, do you want to try our signature dish? It tastes pretty good. I’ll talk to the kitchen in a bit to make sure you get something delicious. Ren Ningxuang said to Wang Chen. Sure, that would be great. Wang Chen glanced at the menu, casually selecting a few signature dishes before handing the menu to Yao Jinglong, signaling him to order a few more. You’re so tall and strong, you must be able to eat a lot. I’ll get you some rice first. Wang Chen watched Ren Ningxuang’s departing figure, his brow slightly furrowed. He suddenly realized he couldn’t quite see through this girl in front of him. Ren Ningxuang didn’t seem to match the rumors from his past life. In his previous life, Wang Chin wasn’t very familiar with Ren Ningxuang, he only knew her information from the campus website. After all, Ren Ningxuang was the campus beauty, while he was just a loser in school. They had no chance to intersect. They wouldn’t intersect. Wang Chin only remembered that Ren Ningxuang had never had a boyfriend during her four years in college, nor did she have any scandals. Her cold personality made countless boys shy away from her. In the end, there were even rumors that Ren Ningxuang didn’t like men and was only interested in girls. This only made many boys at school like her even more. So when Ren Ningxuan greeted him in the cafeteria and took the initiative to get to know him, Wang Chen’s first reaction was surprise. This was a far cry from the Ren Ningxuan in his memories, and he worried that her approach had ulterior motives. Something unusual must be afoot. However, Ren Ningxuan’s high favorability towards him didn’t seem to indicate any hidden agenda. Wang Chen could only attribute it to the effect of the entry. Demoness in the world. What puzzled Wang Chen was that even if Ren Ningxuan was materialistic, why hadn’t she dated anyone during her four years in college? With her looks, finding a rich man would be incredibly easy. There was no need for her to work part -time in a restaurant. Her monthly salary wouldn’t exceed $3,000, and that didn’t even compare to other girls who could easily earn more by just having a couple of drinks at a bar. Yet in this life, she actively sought him out and kept clinging to him. Even after being rejected by Wang Chen, she acted as if nothing had happened and continued to bring him drinks. She had a look. That said, I’m going to stick to you, what are you going to do about it? Wang Chen rubbed his brow, letting out a bitter laugh. What on earth was Ren Ningxuang thinking? Why was she so determined to fixate? On him? This is the braised pork you ordered, eat it while it’s hot. Ren Ningxuang stood by, looking at Wang Chen with a beaming smile. Should I not be here? Yao Jinglong grinned at Wang Chen, making playful. Expressions. Hello, I’m Ren Ningxuang. Ren Ningxuang nodded at Yao Jinglong, smiling as she said, are you Wang Chen’s friend? Of course. Yao Jinglong replied confidently. Then he added somewhat awkwardly, at least I consider Wang Chen a brother. So, are you just getting to know each other, or, are you a couple? Yao Jinglong asked curiously. He observed Ren Ningxuang and Wang Chen, who seemed like they had just met. But Ren Ningxuang looked at Wang Chen with obvious affection. Not yet a couple. A charming blush appeared on Ren Ningxuang’s face as she said, but it will be soon. I will work hard to win Wang Chen’s heart. What? Yao Jinglong exclaimed, his eyes nearly popping out. He couldn’t help but doubt if he had misheard. He said uncertainly, I must have heard wrong, it should be Wang Chen still pursuing you, right? Ren Ningxuan. Slowly shook her head, her face turning even redder. Yao Jinglong looked at Ren Ningxuan’s barefaced beauty, nearly grinding his back teeth in frustration. Damn Wang Chen, why does he get all the good fortune? This was. Completely different from what he had imagined. Yao Jinglong thought it was Wang Chen who was actively pursuing Ren Ningxuan, but the reality was that Ren Ningxuan was the one pursuing Wang Chen. What a reversal. Of fate. Wang Chen doesn’t seem too satisfied with me, he hasn’t agreed to my pursuit. As his friend, could you help me? If it works out, I’ll treat you to a meal, Ren Ningxuang said, clasping her hands behind her. Back in looking at Yao Jinglong with anticipation, Yao Jinglong felt a twitch in his heart. He looked at Ren Ningxuang in disbelief, then turned to Wang Chen. His eyes were filled with surprise, how could a beauty of this caliber not move Wang Chen? Are you even a man? Most importantly, she was the one chasing after him. Wang Chen, you really should be damned. I hate it, why isn’t it me? After a while, Yao Jinglong finally spat out these words. He couldn’t understand why Wang Chen was so popular with girls. Meanwhile, he dressed so stylishly and looked so handsome, yet no girl paid him any attention, let alone pursued him. Is this right? Being handsome is impressive, huh? Yao Jinglong remarked, looking at Wang Chen’s devastatingly handsome face. Ran Ningxuan’s eye sparkled with joy as she looked at Wang Chen, unable to hide her feelings. Anyone could see it. Yao Jinglong immediately wilted, feeling dejected. Being handsome means you can do whatever you want, that’s just how it is. Don’t listen to her nonsense, Wang Chen said, somewhat speechless. You should go attend to the other guests. Alright then, you guys eat first and call me if you need anything, Ren Ningxuang said, looking at them with a wronged expression, then turned to Yao Jinglong and said. Remember to help me persuade Wang Chen. No problem, Yao Jinglong readily agreed. For the happiness of his good brother, he wouldn’t hesitate to stab his brother in the back. The next morning, at the school, basketball court. Yao Jinglong watched Wang Chen and the others play basketball while he hid in the shade, sipping on a cola. At that moment, during the halftime break, Ren Ningxuang ran up to Wang Chen, her delicate, rosy little hand holding a bottle of drink, which she handed to Wang Chen. Yao Jinglong was taken aback. He could hear others whispering nearby, why is Ren Ningxuang here again? Exactly, she’s so thick-skinned. Yao Jinglong’s expression shifted, and he turned to the group and asked, hey, what’s going on here? One of them looked at Yao Jinglong, surprised, and said, you don’t know? It’s all over the campus forum. Bro. I really didn’t know. I haven’t checked the campus forum. Yao Jinglong shook his head and said, can you tell me what’s happening? Let me explain. On the first day of school, Ren Ningxuang openly pursued Wang Chen, but he rejected her. After that, Ren Ningxuang was unwilling to give up and kept bringing drinks to Wang Chen for no reason. The student shrugged and said, you have to admit, Ren Ningxuang has been the top goddess on the campus flower list for three years. Why is she so obsessed with someone who rejected her? She brought drinks before, didn’t you notice? Yao Jinglong said, a hint of confusion in his expression. What was, he doing yesterday at this time? It seemed like he was in the bathroom. Wang Chen, you really should be damned, Yao Jinglong said, tears streaming down his face. Ren Ningxuang treats you like this, and you’re not. Even moved. Bro, Ren Ningxuang is pretty, but Wang Chen is also very handsome, alright, someone nearby couldn’t help but retort. Under the shade of a tree not far away, Wang Chen took the drink, took a sip, then pulled out his phone and said, add me on Feixin. Really? Ren Ningxuang said with delight, great, you finally felt my sincerity and are going to add my contact information. She quickly took out her phone and searched for the QR code. Wang Chen took a glance. It was an old Redmi phone. It looked like it had been used for quite some time, the screen was all scratched up. However, it seemed that Ren Ningxuang took good care of it, it was clean and spotless. Without any embarrassment, Ren Ningxuang boldly presented her true self to Wang Chen. The Redmi phone was a bit laggy and after a while, it finally displayed the facing QR code. Ren Ningxuan extended her fair, delicate hand and offered it to Wang Chen. Wang Chen didn’t say much and directly scanned her QR code to add her as a friend, sending a 200 yuan red envelope. Ren Ningxuan quickly accepted it. Wen Wang. Ren Ningxuan looked over curiously, only to find it was a red envelope sent by Wang Chen. Wang Chen, what do you mean by this? The smile on Ren Ningxuan’s face instantly froze. And she couldn’t help but ask. It’s nothing. You bring me drinks every day, I can’t keep drinking for free, can I? Wang Chen said lightly, I’m not used to having girls spend money on me. Just accept this red. And below, it’s not much. Wang Chen took a sip of the drink and said, thanks for the drink, but don’t bring it anymore. I don’t usually drink much, and with the weather being so hot, it’s a hassle for you to run back. And fourth with your part-time job. Hee hee, are you concerned about me? Rending Shuang’s eyes lit up, and she smiled brightly, saying, I thought you liked drinks, I usually enjoy sweet milk tea. Since you don’t like it, I’ll bring you something else next time. Really, no need. Wang Chen said seriously. Alright, I understand. Ren Ningxuan lowered her head and spoke softly. After that, Wang Chen returned to the basketball court, while Ren Ningxuan wore a thoughtful expression before leaving. Noon. School cafeteria. Ren Ningxuan came over with half a chilled watermelon, smiling as she handed Wang Chen a spoon. Wang Chen was instantly stunned. Why are you here again? What is this? He he. Ren Ningxuan smiled and said, you said you don’t like drinks, and it’s so hot, so I thought I’d bring you a chilled watermelon to cool off. She swallowed and said, try it, it’s really sweet. Wang Chen looked at her and didn’t say anything. Ren Ningxuan’s face immediately fell, you don’t like watermelon either, do you? Just try it, it’s quite good. If you don’t eat it, it’ll go to waste. Wang Chen rubbed his forehead inside helplessly. Did he mean that when he spoke in the morning? Is this how Ren Ningxuan understood it? He had made himself so clear and even sent her a faixin red envelope. He just wanted her to stop bringing things. Wang Chen looked at Ren Ningxuang in front of him, her delicate, fair face filled with confusion. He couldn’t tell if she really didn’t understand or was just pretending to be clueless in front of him. Ren Ningxuang shouldn’t be studying at a finance university, she should be at an art school learning to perform. You really are, how much is it? I’ll transfer it to you. Wang Chen sighed, reaching out to take the watermelon. No need, it’s not much. Seeing Wang Chen take the watermelon, Ren Ningxuang smiled brightly and happily skipped away, not giving Wang. Chen a chance to speak. Wang Chen looked at the watermelon in his hand and could only let her be. In the following days, Ren Ningxuan would appear in front of Wang Chen on time. No matter where Wang Chen hid, Ren Ningxuan always managed to find him accurately. Every day, she would bring various cooling items, all while surrounded by envious gazes from those around them. Chilled watermelon, green tea, and even the silver. Fungus and lotus seed soup she made herself. Although these items aren’t particularly valuable, just some common things, they were all made by the goddess of the school, Ren Ningxiang, which left many boys who saw it heartbroken. Yao Jinglong followed Wang Chen, wearing a face full of resentment. After spending so many days together, Wang Chen found that Yao Jinglong wasn’t too bad, and they had become friends. Ren Ningxiang’s reputation on the school forum gradually turned around. After all, whether it was for materialistic reasons or something else, it was quite impressive that Ren Ningxiang had been consistently bringing things to Wang Chen for so long. The online sentiment shifted from criticism to anticipation of whether Ren Ningxian could win over Wang Chen. Many were eager to see what the final outcome would be. Wang Chen had just arrived at the school cafeteria, ready to eat. As expected, Ren Ningxian was already waiting for him at the entrance. She held a bottle of soda water and handed it to Wang Chen. Looking at Yao Jinglong beside her, Ren Ningxian said somewhat shyly, I’m sorry, I forgot your portion again. I promise I’ll remember next time. It’s fine. Yao Jinglong forced a smile. He had gotten used to it, Ren Ningxiong hadn’t brought him anything these, past few days, always habitually overlooking him. Wang Chin took the soda water, twisted off the cap, and took a sip. Then he turned to Yao Jinglong and said, you go eat by yourself. I have to take care of something. Okay, Yao Jinglong nodded. Come with me for a moment, Wang Chin said to the smiling Ren Ningxiong. After that, Wang Chin headed towards the parking lot. Arriving at the Apollo IE parking spot, Wang Chin took out his car keys to unlock it. He opened the cool seagull-shaped door of the Apollo i.e., got in, and closed the door, only to find Ren Ningxiong standing outside, staring blankly, not coming in. What are you standing there? Four. Get in, Wang Chen said. I can’t open it. Ren Ningxiong awkwardly pointed at the car door, looking a bit flustered. Wang Chen couldn’t help but smile. Usually so confident, Ren Ningxiong could also have her awkward moments. There’s a handle on that side of the door, just pull it, or press the button above and lift it up, Wang Chen explained. The Apollo IE has three ways to open the door, sensor, pull handle, or press. The button. Ren Ningxiong tried the method Wang Chen suggested. She pressed the button and lifted it up. The door immediately swung open like a seagull spreading its wings. Ah! Ren Ningxiong exclaimed, covering. Her mouth in surprise, it was quite novel for her. She hadn’t expected the door to open like that, so cool. Carefully, Ren Ningxiong got into the car and closed the door. Looking at the luxurious interior, she couldn’t. Help but exclaim, it’s so beautiful. Where are we going? To eat, Wang Chin simply replied and fell silent. He pressed the start button and stepped on the gas. The car roared to life, the engine’s sound waves, echoing through the air. The streamlined body glimmered with a platinum glow under the evening streetlights, like a shooting star racing across the campus, speeding towards the outside of the school. After several minutes, the car pulled into the Indigo Hotel at the Bund. Located at the Bund’s 16 piers, the Indigo Hotel boasts a stunning view of the Pujang River and it has a restaurant specializing in Cantonese. Cuisine, Dongfang Saiyan. Wang Chen parked the car, opened the door, and stepped out, arriving at the base of the building. Ran Ningxiong mimicked Wang Chen’s way of opening the door, standing beside him, looking a bit confused. Let’s go, Wang Chen said softly as he stepped forward. You’ve brought me so many things these past few days, I can’t just not show my appreciation, so let me treat you to a meal here. Eat here? Ran Ningxiong. pointed at the magnificent building in front of her, looking a bit surprised, such a stylish place, still located on the bun, clearly any restaurant that can open here will have very expensive prices. Actually, if you want to treat me to a meal, we can change to another place, I’m not picky. Ran Nanshuang said hesitantly, the snack street outside Keita is quite nice, we can eat there. Eating here must be very expensive. There’s no need to dine here. The spicy hot pot in the cafeteria is also very delicious, I often go there. Hmm. Wang Chin blanced at Ren Nyanshuang, raised an eyebrow, and said without changing his expression, Six. You on for spicy hot pot? Ren Nyanshuang replied blankly, What? It’s nothing, let’s go. Wang Chin just smiled and stepped towards the building. This restaurant isn’t too expensive, but the taste is indeed quite good. Coupled with a first class view of the river, the ambience and elegance are sought after by many wealthy people in the magic city. Seeing that Wang Chin had no intention of leaving, Ren Nyanshuang had no choice, but to follow in his footsteps, trailing behind him. Upon entering the lobby, a space layout with a strong sense of design came into view. The floor was as smooth as a mirror, paved with high-quality marble tiles, reflecting a soft sheen under the lighting. Unique chandeliers hung in an orderly fashion from the ceiling. The warm yellow light cascaded down, enveloping the entire lobby in a soft and bright halo. The surrounding walls were adorned with uniquely styled art paintings or vintage photos with the charm of old Magic City. One side had a floor-to-ceiling window that almost occupied an entire wall through the clear glass, the street. View and the scenery of the Pujang River were faintly visible. They then entered the elevator and arrived at the third floor. The elevator door slowly opened and the first thing to catch the eye was a uniquely charming, wooden sliding door, with exquisite carvings showcasing an ancient elegance. In the foyer area, there was a simple yet grand pie show sculpture. The fully transparent open kitchen had shiny kitchenware neatly arranged, with chefs bustling about, blending the warmth of cooking with an elegant atmosphere. Welcome to the Oriental Cyan restaurant, may I ask if you have a reservation? As Wang Chan and Ren Yangshuan walked through the door, a waitress greeted them. Yes, my surname is Wang, Wang Chan replied. He had already asked Long Lily to book a private room for him in advance. This is a restaurant with a French-Cantonese style. The executive chef is the nationally renowned Lai Ronghui. He has held important positions in several famous restaurants and has won numerous honors, including the Gold Award at the Hong Kong Island Food Expo and the Gold Award at the Long Province Culinary Competition. Okay, Mr. Wang, I see that you have a reservation for the Minji Weixuan private room for 2 this afternoon, please follow me. After the waitress confirmed again, she guided Wang Chan and Ren Nyangxuan into the restaurant. Wang Chan’s expression was calm as he followed the waitress into the restaurant. Ren Nyangxuan carefully observed the environment before her, her face showing surprise. The ground was paved with shikuman bricks, extending deep into the restaurant. The space, meticulously crafted by a famous foreign design company, showcased the unique charm of new Chinese style in its details. Surrounding the restaurant, wooden carved screens cleverly divided different dining areas. The exquisite patterns of flowers, birds, fish, and insects on the screens were lifelike. On one side was a fully transparent, open kitchen, resembling a stage for culinary delights. The shiny kitchenware was neatly arranged, and the chefs, dressed in white uniforms and tall chef hats, moved busily and orderly within. Ingredients in the pots. Clashed passionately with flames, and enticing aromas wafted out from time to time, instantly stirring hunger in the stomach. Moving further ahead, one could see floor-to-ceiling glass windows that brought the stunning scenery of the Pujian River indoors without reservation. Ren Yangshuang followed Wang Chan and the waitress towards the Minji Wexuan private room, her surprise growing stronger. After Wang Chan and Ren Yangshuang took their seats in the private room, Chef Lai Ronghui walked in, dressed in a neat chef’s uniform, smiling as he said, Good evening, sir and madam. Welcome to Dongfang Sian, I am Chef Lai Ronghui. I heard that we have distinguished guests today, so I came to greet you. He slightly bowed, politely acknowledging them, and with a hint of an undetectable Cantonese accent, he continued, the restaurant specializes in French Cantonese cuisine, and we have just received a batch of top quality gin ad oysters from France. You too should try some. I wonder if you have any special taste preferences or dietary restrictions so I can tailor the dishes. For you, he added. Wang Chen replied directly, then please take charge for us and arrange today’s menu. Lai Ronghui’s eyes immediately lit up, and he gave Wang Chen a thumbs up, smiling as he said, thank. You free your trust in me, tonight’s dishes will definitely satisfy you. Finally, Chef Lai Ronghui bowed again and said, I won’t disturb you any longer. Enjoy your meal. If you have any thoughts or questions during the tasting, just ask the waiter to find me. Alright, thank you. After Chef Lai Ronghui left, Wang Chin snapped his fingers at the waiter and said, Bring us a bottle of wine. Good evening, sir. Our restaurant. Currently has only the 1992 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Red Wine and the 1995 Chateau Margot Red Wine priced at 168 ,888 yuan and 88,888 yuan, respectively. Which one would you like? the waiter asked. Upon hearing this, Ren Ningxuan’s eyes widened, her pupils constricting. A bottle of wine costs 168,000, and this is just for a meal. It’s merely for pairing with the food. Luxurious, too luxurious, this is a level of extravagance. She cannot imagine. What does her hard-earned few thousand yuan from a month amount to? Wang Chen replied nonchalantly, then let’s have a bottle of the 1992 Lafite. All right, sir. The waiter turned and left the private room to fetch the wine. After a while, the waiter carefully entered, holding a bottle of Lafite and stopped in front of Wang Chen, showcasing the label and the seal. After Wang Chen nodded, the waiter uncorked the bottle and poured it into a decanter. Soon after, two exquisite small plates were brought in by the waiter and placed in front of Wang Chen and Ren Ningxuang. The waiter introduced, this is the pre-dessert, French, caramel pudding, please enjoy. Wang Chin picked up a spoon and said to Ren Ningxuan, go ahead. Ren Ningxuan looked at the delicate pudding on the plate and, mimicking Wang Chin, took a spoonful. The silky, dense texture that entered her mouth felt like a gentle spring breeze brushing against her, instantly spreading throughout her mouth. The surface of the pudding had a slight caramel crust, with a light bite, a crunch. Sound was heard and the sweet aroma was released, intertwining with the tender pudding, sweet but not cloying. The rich milky fragrance lingered between her lips and teeth, causing Ren Ningxuang to slightly squint. Her eyes. Hmm. Ren Ningxuang suddenly felt a bit embarrassed by the sound she just made. Such simple ingredients, after a simple baking process, produced a flavor far beyond what an ordinary cake shop could compare. To. Especially in this environment, which was worlds apart. Sitting here, looking up, she could see the exquisite decor of the private room and the night view of the bond, while tasting fresh ingredients from around. The world. This dual enjoyment of spirit and body left Ren Ningxuang utterly enchanted. She began to understand why these high-end restaurants were so expensive, yet so many people dined here. Ren Ningxuang had previously been puzzled, unable to comprehend why these wealthy people seemed foolish, spending far beyond market prices. If she were wealthy in the future, she certainly wouldn’t waste money like they did. Until now. Ren Ningxuang was starting to understand a little, she couldn’t help but smile. Once thought that rich people were foolish, now she realized they simply understood the value of paying for a high quality of life, knowing how to enjoy the delicacy and comfort that money brings. Just as Rin Ningxiong came to this realization, a server dressed in traditional Chinese attire walked into the private room, carrying a tray. Lemongrass. Double pepper snowflake beef. 15-year huadu wine steamed pine leaf crab. Lotus seeds stir-fried with hand-peeled river shrimp. Gina dough oysters paired with fresh shrimp and fish fillet seafood soup. Smoked. Beef. Baked crab with red pepper. For dessert, there were, tiramisu, cheesecake. Ren Ningxiong looked at the exquisite dishes before her, one she had never seen before. It was truly an eye -opener. So this, is how refined and elegant dining could be. No need to hurriedly eat in a crowded and noisy environment. She could savor the fresh ingredients from around the world as soon as the food was served. Ren Ningxiong gently, picked up the delicate bone china teacup in front of her and took a sip of the already brewed fragrant tea. The warm tea spread across her tongue. Soothing music played in her ears. The food danced on her tongue, stimulating her taste buds and salivary glands. Run Ningxiong took small bites of the dishes in front of her, appearing somewhat reserved, unlike her usual generous demeanor. She looked up at Wang Chen, who was sitting beside her, and murmured, you’re really handsome. Wang Chen’s handsome face, illuminated by the light, became even more charming. His sword-like brows and starry eyes, with deep ocean-like pupils. His high nose stood, straight like a peak, with hard lines yet retaining a softness, giving his face a more three-dimensional feel. Ren Ningxian couldn’t help but show a look of infatuation. However, Wang Chen’s eating manner somewhat disrupted this beautiful feeling. She saw him pick up a piece of crab meat and shove it into his mouth, chewing loudly. Then he scooped up a plump Gina Do oyster, swallowed it whole, and drank a bowl of oyster seafood. Soup. Delightful, free and easy. There was no hint of restraint one would expect in a high-end restaurant, it felt more like eating spicy hot pot at a street stall. He only cared about his own enjoyment, indifferent to others’ opinions. Wang Chen seemed to notice her gaze, slightly turned his head and with a teasing smile said, what’s wrong? Is the food not to your taste? I see you’re eating more delicately than a little cat. No, no. Ran Ningxiong’s cheeks flushed and she quickly waved her hand, saying, it’s just that the dishes are too exquisite, I can’t bear to eat them too roughly. And, she paused, her voice unconsciously lowering. And eating with you makes me feel like I should be more elegant. Oh, so you think I’m in the way and only when I leave can you eat freely? A glimmer of amusement flashed in Wang Chen’s eyes as he deliberately. teased her. Not at all. Ren Ningxiong shot him a playful glare. Wang Chin poured some red wine into her glass and softly said, try this wine, it pairs well with the seafood, it’s quite nice. As he spoke, he took a sip himself, his Adam’s apple moving slightly, exuding an indescribable sexiness. Ren Ningxiong followed his lead and lifted her wine glass. She gently sniffed it, the fruity and wine aromas intertwined, relaxing. Her mood a bit. After taking a small sip, her eyes lit up, it’s really good, I’ve never had such good wine before. At that moment, the head chef, Lai Rongui, dressed in a pristine white chef’s uniform and, wearing a tall hat, walked in. He wore a humble yet professional smile, slightly bowing as he said, sorry to interrupt your meal, but the dishes I carefully prepared for you both are all ready. I wonder if they suit. Your taste? Not bad. Wangchen put down his wine glass and picked up a piece of smoked beef to chew. He nodded and said, from the selection of ingredients to the cooking techniques, every dish shows great care. We are very satisfied with the meal. Lai Ronghui immediately said with a smile, seeing you enjoy your meal so much, I’m honored to cook this delicious feast for you. As long as you are satisfied, I will be content. Run. Ningxuan looked at chef Lai Ronghui in surprise. This was completely different from her past impressions of high-end restaurants. In Ren Ningxuan’s imagination, people who frequented such luxurious places must be bound by layers of rules, their every gesture adhering to strict etiquette. Just like in movies and novels, a slight misstep would attract strange glances. However, at this moment, reality provided her with a different answer. The world of the wealthy was not as rule-bound and laden with heavy etiquette as depicted in films and novels. Everything was done as one pleased, whatever was comfortable and enjoyable was the way to go. Yet, Ren Ningxuan dared not act with even the slightest rudeness in this restaurant, eating her meal with restraint. It was only because it was her first time dining here and she feared being noticed. In contrast, Wang Chen had enough confidence. To him, so-called high-end restaurants were no different from street food stalls. He didn’t need to be cautious or care about others’ opinions. He presented his most authentic self. Ren Ningxuang suddenly felt a bit inferior. She used to think that the lives of the wealthy were just a bit better in terms of food and amenities and that everything else was no different from ordinary people. It was as if a small restaurant chef thought that a Michelin chef’s cooking was just about adding some high-end seasoning and plating it beautifully without realizing the meticulous control over ingredients in cooking. Times behind it, Ren Ningxuang realized that her perspective was too narrow. The calmness and confidence that wealthy people displayed in the face of any situation was something she could never learn in her lifetime. Run Ningshuang chuckled self-deprecatingly. She laughed at her own naivety and at how she had previously been like a frog in a well, gazing at the moon. After dining in this luxurious restaurant and experiencing the life of the wealthy, she felt like a mayfly seeing the blue sky. She had become somewhat ungrateful. No wonder so many women wanted to marry into wealthy families to rise to the top and become phoenixes. It was. No wonder that she, a stunning beauty, actively pursued Wang Chen, yet he remained unmoved. It wasn’t that she was unattractive, nor was it because Wang Chen had no interest in beautiful girls. It was just that she had mistakenly thought of Wang Chen as being like other rich second-generation heirs. A person of his caliber had seen and experienced everything. Her most proud attributes, her figure and looks, were probably just ordinary things in his eyes. Those girls who looked decent enough to impress the wealthy and become rich wives could only be because those wealthy men were still far from reaching Wang Chen’s level. Truly established families with heritage were likely to be like Wang Chen. Always wearing a faint smile, appearing forever unassuming. Seemingly kind, but upon deeper interaction, one could sense an insurmountable distance. This meal was a dream for Ren Ning Shuang, it felt so unreal. It wasn’t until Wang Chen swiped his card to pay that she was jolted back to reality. How much? Wang Chen asked the waiter. Mr Wang, your total is 238,600 yuan. How would you like to pay? Card, Wang Chen replied casually. Ding. The system detected that the host spent $238,600, double cashback $477,200. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 23 system points. Run! Ningxuan looked at the number on the bill, the amount of over $200,000 made her dizzy. And there was also a 15 % service charge. Oh my god, what kind of black shop is this? Spending over $200,000 on a meal and still being charged a 15% service fee. This is outrageous, aha! Ran Ningshuang screamed internally but her face remained calm. Let’s go, Wang Chen said, wiping his mouth and standing up. Back to school? Ran Ningshuang asked instinctively. What do you think? Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and said with a mischievous smile. What do you think? Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and said with a mischievous smile. Ran Ningshuang’s face immediately flushed upon hearing this. Let’s take a stroll downstairs, Wang Chen said seriously. You probably don’t come here often, right? The night. View of the bond is quite nice and the sea breeze will help clear your head. Drinking and driving don’t mix, Wang Chen would never drive under the influence. It’s irresponsible to others and to oneself. This brilliant. Life has just begun for him. He doesn’t want to gamble on whether the system can bring him back to life again. The wealthier people are, the more they value their lives. Their words and actions become increasingly cautious. You can indulge in luxury, live extravagantly, and even do as you please, but all of this must be based on not breaking the law. Otherwise, even if you have a strong background and connections, in front of. The country and the people, you are like an ant. The more arrogant and overbearing you are, the more tragic your end will be. Wang Chen does not want to be someone who bullies the weak and acts arrogantly. At the same time, he cannot be weak and easily bullied. He believes in living freely without crossing the line. This is the path Wang Chen follows. It embodies the Confucian principle of moderation that has permeated Chinese civilization for thousands of years. Alright, Ren Ningxuang nodded and followed behind Wang Chen. The restaurant staff escorted Wang Chen and Ren Ningxuan to the elevator and kindly pressed the button for them. Thank you very much for choosing our restaurant. We hope you enjoy your meal and look forward to your next visit. The staff bowed slightly to them and only turned back after the elevator doors closed. They arrived downstairs. The bunded night resembled a dazzling and magnificent painting slowly unfolding before their eyes. The Huangpu River shimmered and the neon lights of the tall buildings on both sides flickered. Boats glided slowly on the river and a gentle breeze carried a fragrant scent. In the distance, the sound of a violin floated through the air. The two were captivated by the enchanting night. The sea breeze brought a refreshing, chill, dispelling the summer night’s heat. Ren Ningxuan looked up at the groups of people on the river cruise, laughing and chatting, feeling that all of this was incredibly distant from her. She also felt a sense of estrangement from Wang Chen. The two walked along the riverbank, appearing somewhat silent. Wang Chen did not speak. Ren Ningxuan lowered her head, lost in thought, and did not say anything. The previous boldness and initiative were gone. What are you thinking? You don’t look very happy. Wang Chen suddenly stopped, turned around, leaned on the railing by the river, and gazed at the beautiful scenery in the distance. It’s… nothing. The sea breeze howled past, tousling Ren Ningxuan’s long hair. A faint smile appeared on her lips as she gently brushed her hair, and she said calmly, I was just thinking that I seem a bit… ridiculous. Wang Chen turned his head, glanced at Ren Ningxuan, and said, Can you tell me what you’re thinking now? Hee hee. Ren Ningxuan giggled, her face breaking into a smile as she said, I told you before, I just want… to pursue you, nothing else. Wang Chen remained silent, just looking at her. After a while, the expression on Ren Ningxuan’s face could no longer hold. She turned her head awkwardly and said helplessly, actually, it’s nothing. Anyway, I’m ready to give up. Give up? Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, curious. Yes. I’ve given up on pursuing you. Ren Ningxuan nodded. Her clear eyes looked at Wang Chen, and she said with some emotion, tonight’s dinner made me see the gap between us. I was just being unrealistic, dreaming foolishly. It’s as if there’s a galaxy separating us, like a chasm. Since there’s no hope, why should I continue? Wang Chan looked at her in surprise and said, Then what was the reason you actively pursued me in the first place? Ren Ningxuan was silent for a moment, tugged at the corner of her mouth, and said, Calmly, for the money. From the day you became a sensation on the campus forum, I knew you were wealthy, and I, need money. Wang Chan was not surprised by Ren Ningxuan’s statement. Although he was charming and… extraordinarily handsome he had not become so narcissistic as to think that a clear-headed woman like Ren Ningxuan would go crazy for him since you’re in it for the money Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and said there are plenty of rich second generation heirs in the wealthy district who like you why did you specifically set your sights on me because my appetite is quite large Ren Ningxuan shook her head and said softly a large appetite how much do you want eight hundred thousand cough cough Wang Chen couldn’t help but cough upon hearing this taking a long time to recover he thought Ren Ningxuan would ask For a much larger sum, generally, rich second-generation heirs wouldn’t meet her demands. A mere 800,000. That’s just skipping a couple of meals. Logically speaking, with Ren Ningxuan’s looks, finding a wealthy person willing to pay that price would be incredibly easy. This is the magic city. One of the most prosperous places in the world. In 2018, there were 16,700 households with a net worth exceeding 10 million. Hua Xia Coins. Spending over a hundred thousand a month to support a college student like Ren Ningxuang is relatively minor compared to their living expenses. You’re a college student, what do you need this money? 4. Wang Chen asked curiously. To be honest, some old-fashioned stories have happened to me, do you really want to hear them? Ren Ningxuang turned to glance at Wang Chen, resting her chin on the railing, her voice low. I’m all ears. Wang Chen nodded. Ren Ningxuang let out a light breath and said, I’m a local from the Magic City, logically, a family like mine shouldn’t lack this 800,000. In. Fact, that was true. When I was young, my family was quite well off, considered middle class in the Magic City. My family had me learn dance, violin, and calligraphy from a young age, but everything changed when I entered middle school. My dad’s company went bankrupt, and he was left with a mountain of debt. After begging and pleading, we finally paid off the debts, and I thought our family would finally be okay, but then. My dad, in his joy, drank a bit and got into a car accident. As Ren Ningxuan spoke, her nose twitched, it was already red, now looking even more delicate and pitiful. She slightly turned her head, not wanting Wang Chen to see her like this. But the tears welling in her eyes betrayed her. After a brief pause, she took a deep breath and forced herself to continue. The end result was that my dad became completely paralyzed from the waist down and could only lie in bed at home. The subsequent medical expenses were astronomical. We borrowed from all our relatives, but it still wasn’t enough. My mom had to sell our house and take on several jobs to make ends meet. But not long after, my mom fell ill from exhaustion. After going to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said it was a meningioma, but fortunately, it was a benign tumor that could be removed through surgery. However, the surgery and subsequent treatment costs need $800,000. As Ren Ningxuang said this, tears welled up in her eyes, she bit her lip tightly, trying hard to hold back. The tears. Her slender fingers clenched the hem of her clothes, her knuckles turning white from the effort. The wind howled past, tousling her hair. Yet she seemed oblivious, pausing for a moment, her voice choked as she continued, it’s a very old-fashioned story, right? Ren Ningxuan slightly tilted her head, gazing at the vast, boundless night sky. She blinked desperately, trying to hold back the tears that were about. To spill over hot tears uncontrollably rolled down her cheeks, the savings at home added up to less than 30,000. At that moment, I felt like the sky had collapsed. I borrowed money everywhere, reaching out. To all my relatives and friends, but because my dad’s medical debts were still unpaid, they were unwilling to lend me anything. Looking at my weak mother on the hospital bed, I felt so powerless for the first time. Not knowing what to do. At that moment, it was my mother who comforted me. She told me that when a person is born, fate has already arranged everything. I shouldn’t worry, just focus on my studies, and not stress. Over money. She even said she didn’t want me to sell my body for money, otherwise, she’d rather die right away. Ren Ningxuang fell silent for a moment and said, from then on, I understood. I must find a rich. Man, I want to get my mother’s surgery, I don’t want her to die. I’ve had enough of this kind of life. I don’t want to be powerless when my family needs money. I also don’t want to work multiple part-time. Jobs every day, ending up with less than 6 hours of sleep. I don’t want to eat that free white rice in the cafeteria, just with vegetable soup for a month, just to save money. My days working in the restaurant, were actually quite good, at least I could eat delicious meals, and I felt really happy. Ren Ningxuan looked at Wang Chen and said, actually, the watermelon I brought you and the sweet soup I made, I couldn’t bear, to eat myself. Watching you eat, I secretly swallowed several times. If it weren’t for the fact that you are different from those rich men, I wouldn’t even consider you. If I had to go after those older men, I’d. be afraid i’d be disgusted to death ren ningshuang continued rationally i know i have no right to bargain but perhaps a girl’s thoughts are just this complicated and contradictory i’m greedy and a bit pretentious i’ve said too much he he my story is over don’t you think it’s quite boring wang chan was somewhat silent the thin rope breaks at its weakest point and misfortune seeks out the unfortunate a flicker of emotion passed through wang chan’s eyes as he looked at ren ningshuang and softly asked is this why you pursued me yes Ren Ningxuan’s eyes curved into crescents as she smiled and said, I saw your photo on the school forum for the first time. I was a bit moved, I thought you were really handsome and driving an Apollo i.e. so rich. I thought, you’re so young, you must be easy to deceive. And with my looks, it would be a piece of cake to handle you. At this point, Ren Ningxuan pouted, a hint of regret in her expression. Who knew you wouldn’t play by the rules and actually rejected my pursuit? Although I felt a bit discouraged, I still became a little curious about you. After I went back, I thought I must win you over. You’re different from other men, not after my looks, which is quite special. So, I appeared in front of you every day, bringing you food. After doing this for so many days, suddenly saying I want to give up feels quite strange. Since I’ve persisted for so long, why suddenly give up now? Wang Chan raised an eyebrow and said lightly. Don’t you want the 800,000 for the surgery? You also want to live the life of a rich person. Maybe if you hold on for a few more days, I’ll be moved, and I’ll give you the 800,000. These are all small matters to me. I do want money, but you’re too rich. Ran Ningxuang shook her head, smiling bitterly as she said, tonight’s dinner made me feel the gap between us is so large. And apart from this. Body, I have nothing. I think no rich man would be willing to accept me. After all, my family is a bottomless pit and being entangled with me would be quite troublesome. With so many beautiful girls around, why? Would anyone spend their money and time on me? Right. You’re handsome, wealthy, and kind-hearted. In my eyes, you shine like a star. No matter how hard I try, I can only look up to you, you deserve someone better. Ran Yangshuang’s smile reappeared, filled with a hint of longing and a touch of relief as she said, honestly, even if it weren’t for the money, I think if I spent more time with you, I might just fall for you. And then we could have a sweet romance. Wang Chen remained indifferent, speaking in a flat tone, I have many girlfriends, I probably can’t give you that sweet romance. Upon hearing this, Ran Yangshuang shot Wang Chen a glare and retorted, I knew it. Wealthy people like you must have plenty of women flocking to you. You’re quite nice, being so straightforward with me. Wang Chen gazed at the distant night view, remaining silent. Ran Nanshuang nodded and continued, Before I actively pursued you, I had thought about all this and prepared myself mentally. How could I dare to hope for such a good fortune, that a wealthy person like you, would be devoted to me alone? But now, I fear that being kept by you is something I can’t even dare to wish for. Ran Nanshuang’s head hung slightly, a few strands of hair falling beside her cheek, just enough to cover the redness in her eyes. She bit her lower lip, the color fading slightly from the pressure, trying to suppress her trembling chin. Since middle school, I’ve faced so many challenges in life. When I worked part -time, at a restaurant, I was always generous and never felt inferior. I ate a month’s worth of free rice at the school cafeteria and even when my classmates pointed and whispered, I never felt inferior. But now, in front of you, I feel inferior. You’ve shown me the gap between people, a gap that cannot be bridged by mere effort. Ren Yangshuang said, but don’t worry, I apologize for the little schemes I played to get closer to you before. From now on, I’ll just live my life honestly, working hard to earn a living. After saying this, Ren Yangshuan paused, gently exhaling as if to blow away the entanglements and hopes of these past days. I thought I could endure the darkness. Until I met that ray of light. When one is in front of someone they like, it’s easy to feel inferior. People fear nothing when facing difficulties, but in front of their beloved, they easily lose their composure and charm. I hope in the future, I won’t encounter anyone too stunning. Wishing my lovely readers, may you meet only good people in the rest of your life. What? About your mother’s surgery fees? Wang Chen suddenly asked. The doctor said it’s a benign tumor. I still have a few years, I will work hard to save money. Ranyanshuang slightly raised her head, her eyes filled. With determination, but her lips unconsciously revealed a bitter smile. I’ll cover your mother’s surgery fees, Wangqin said calmly. Ah. Ranyanshuang was momentarily taken aback, instinctively responding. Since you have that thought anyway, this amount of money isn’t much for me, so I might as well support you. After all, I can’t let your hard work these past few days go to waste. Right? Wangqin said, finding. Ran Nyangxuan’s reaction somewhat amusing. Initially, he had been wary of her, mainly because he couldn’t understand what she was thinking. After all, this was different from the trajectory of his past life. It was. Only now, with Ran Nyangxuan opening her heart to him, that Wang Chin understood her thoughts and he felt reassured. Wang Chin didn’t want to comment too much on Ran Nyangxuan’s past experiences. From his perspective, she had already done very well.If it were an ordinary girl, she would never be able to do better than Ran Nyangxuan. She might have long since given up hope and resorted to selling her body. 800,000. For the surgery. For an average family, that’s an astronomical sum, something that would take 10 or 20 years of not eating or drinking to save up. This kind of pressure is enough to break most people’s psychological defenses. Yet Run Ningxiong did so well. She took care of her mother, didn’t neglect her studies and even got into the prestigious financial university. Although she worked part-time in several places every day, there was still hope in her life. That was already impressive. To Wang Chen, 800,000 was just a trivial amount of money but saving a life made it worthwhile. Moreover, he could also gain such a beautiful girl who was his senior. That was just too good. Not to mention 800,000, even 8 million would be worth it. In fact, these days, Ren Ningxiong often brought him food and checked on him. When he was hot, she would thoughtfully hand him a tissue. When he was hungry, she would bring him fruit. Having such a charming and good-tempered senior turning her attention to him every day was enough to make Wang Chen’s heart flutter. To say he wasn’t moved would be a lie. Rather than watching Ren Ningxiong end up in a desperate situation, bowing to others, it was better to bow to himself first. Wang Chen had the ability and wasn’t short on money. Why not take advantage of it? Are you pitying me? The smile on Ren Ningxiong’s face disappeared as she calmly looked at Wang Chen and said, Not really. If you pity me, then forget it. I don’t need it. Ren Ningxiong shook her head and said, Over the years, no matter how difficult it was, I managed to get through it, right? I’m still living quite well. I don’t think I’m pitiful, nor do I need anyone’s pity. The only valuable thing about me is my body. Apart from that, I really can’t think of any other way to earn such a large sum of money. Wang Chan, I’ve said so much tonight, everything that should and shouldn’t be said. In the end, please allow me to keep a little bit of my dignity. Usually, Ren Ningxian was generous and lively, exuding the breath of youth. But at this moment, her tone carried a hint of pleading. Feelings change with circumstances, and time breeds affection. This old saying holds true. After spending these days with Wang Chen, Ren Ningxian found him tall, handsome, kind-hearted, and easygoing. Most importantly, he was so wealthy, no girl could resist such charm. Ren Ningxian was no exception, she was a young girl in love, secretly developing feelings. In front of Wang Chen, she showed her most vulnerable side, feeling quite inferior. She tried hard not to appear too sad. She was also afraid that Wang Chen would dislike her, so she was reluctant to lose the last shred of her dignity in front of him. After dinner tonight, realizing the gap. Between herself and Wang Chen, she felt so inferior that she made the decision to give up. This 800 ,000, part of the reason is that I want to help you, Wang Chen paused and continued, but part of. It is for you. What do you mean? Ren Ningxiong asked, somewhat confused. You’re so beautiful, it’s hard not to be moved, Wang Chen said seriously, looking into Ren Ningxiong’s eyes. You’re not saying this just to spare my feelings, are you? Ren Ningxiong said in disbelief. Why would I lie to you? Do you really have so little confidence in yourself? Then why have you been indifferent to me these past few days? Ren Ningxiong tilted her head slightly, her eyes wide open, looking puzzled. Didn’t you already know? Wang Chen chuckled lightly. Ren Ningxiong suddenly understood. Wang Chen had been wary of her. It was only after she revealed. The reason tonight that his attitude towards her began to soften. Why are you like this? Are all rich people as cautious as you? Ren Ningxiong pouted her delicate pink lips and said softly. But you can’t. Blame me, it’s you who acted too eagerly, Wang Chen smiled at Ren Ningxuang and said, everyone knows that the campus goddess of Kai University, Ren Ningxuang, has always been uninterested in boys. Yet, you are so proactive with me. If I didn’t have some defenses in my heart, that wouldn’t make sense, right? Um, do you have some misunderstanding about your looks? I think you’re quite handsome, and I really like you. Run. Ningxuang covered her forehead and said helplessly, so many girls at Kai University like you. If they all pursued you, wouldn’t you have to be on guard? Wang Chen just smiled and said nothing. At this moment, run. Ningxuan lowered her head a bit shyly and said weakly, oh, don’t look at me like that. I admit that at first, I approached you for the money. But later, I really developed feelings for you. Even though you always ignored me, I felt very comfortable being around you, and you’re so handsome. Otherwise, if you kept rejecting me, I would feel embarrassed too. I would feel bad, I’m not a masochist. Wang Chen’s smile, which had been faint, slightly stiffened, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. But that surprise quickly faded, replaced by a complex expression. This woman is a bit foolish but also somewhat cute. Seeing that Wang. Chen didn’t speak, Ren Ningxuan shyly said, So am I being supported by you now? It feels a bit unreal. If you regret it now, it’s not too late. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and said. Ren Ningxuan replied seriously. I don’t regret it. After pondering for a moment, Wang Chen said to Ren Ningxuan, who was leaning against the railing, Come with me. Where to? Ren Ningxuan asked, a bit confused, but still followed Wang. Chen’s pace, walking along the street by the Bund. The Bund was lined with a dazzling array of shops, all beautifully decorated, trendy flagship stores. Wang Chen stopped in front of a Chanel store and took Ren Ning Shuang. Inside, the sales assistant quickly approached, slightly bowing, and politely said, Hello, welcome to the Chanel flagship store. How may I assist you? Wang Chen pointed at Ren Ning Shuang and said to the sales. Assistant, pick out a few outfits for her. Upon hearing Wang Chen’s words, Ren Ning Shuang frowned slightly, instinctively wanting to refuse. But seeing his unyielding gaze, she swallowed her words. The sales assistants. Eyes lit up, and her smile became even brighter as she quickly responded. You two came at the perfect time, we just received several new designs for this season, all masterpieces from top fashion designers. I see. This lady has an elegant temperament and an outstanding figure, she will definitely look stunning in them. Ran Ningxuan felt a bit helpless, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her eyes showed a hint of discomfort. The. Sales assistant keenly noticed her emotions and skillfully changed the subject, picking up a piece of clothing and holding it in front of her, saying, Ma’am, don’t feel pressured, just think of it as trying on new clothes to find some freshness for yourself. Look at this piece, it’s our main item for this season, made from top-quality mulberry silk. It not only feels incredibly smooth but also has a natural sheen that makes the whole outfit look exceptionally high-end. Its design is also unique, with a tailored cut that perfectly outlines your figure, especially suitable for a lady of your outstanding temperament, perfect for occasions. like banquets. Ren Ningxuan looked at the dress, a flicker of desire passing through her heart. She hesitated and glanced at Wang Chen but ultimately followed the sales assistant into the fitting room. As soon as she entered the fitting room, Ren Ningxuan gently closed the door and leaned against the door panel, letting out a long breath, she looked at the exquisite dress in her hands, her fingers gently gliding over the smooth fabric and a ripple of emotion stirred within her. In fact, she rarely visited such high-end women’s clothing stores, she usually bought clothes at budget malls or online. Faced with such luxurious and expensive attire, she felt both curious and a bit nervous. Ran Nyang Shuang slowly took off her clothes and carefully slipped into the white silk dress. Through the mirror in the fitting room, she saw a slightly unfamiliar yet, stunningly beautiful version of herself. The fitted design perfectly showcased her slender waist and long, graceful legs, while the lace trim at the neckline added just the right touch of allure. Unconsciously, she twirled a few times in front of the mirror, the hem of the dress gently swaying. Just as she was lost in self-appreciation, a gentle voice from outside the fitting room inquired, Ma’am, are you ready? If you need any assistance, please feel free to call me. I’ll be right out, Ren Yangshuang replied, snapping back to reality. She took another careful look at herself in the mirror, took a deep breath, and reached out to open the fitting room door. Wang Chen was sitting on a nearby sofa in the lounge area, casually flipping through a magazine. Hearing the movement, he instinctively looked up. The moment he did, he was instantly mesmerized. Run. Nyang Shuang appeared like a fairy stepping out of a painting. The white dress accentuated her elegance to perfection. The fitted style clung closely to her figure, outlining her graceful curves as if every inch of the fabric had been meticulously sculpted. The lace trim at the neckline was playful yet enchanting, contrasting beautifully with her originally cool demeanor, adding a touch of earthly charm. Wang Chin slowly stood up, his gaze sweeping over Ren Nyang Shuang from bottom to top filled with awe and admiration. He nodded slightly and softly said, you look really beautiful in that dress. The sales assistant, watching from the side, beamed with a smile and chimed in, sir, see, I told you, this lady is a natural model. Wearing our new seasonal collection, she’s simply a perfect match. Hearing their compliments, Run Yangshuang’s cheeks flushed, slightly, and she shyly lowered her head, murmuring, it’s not as exaggerated as you say. Wangchen pointed to several other new seasonal items in the store and said to the sales assistant, wrap up any of these new arrivals that fit her size. I’ll take the one she’s wearing as well. Run Yangshuang’s eyes widened in shock at his words. She quickly waved her hands and said, no, Wang Chen, that’s too wasteful. I really don’t. Need so many, just the one I’m wearing is enough. However, Wang Chen merely smiled slightly, gently took her hand, and said softly, just consider it a small token from me. You’re always so frugal, let yourself indulge. A little today, okay? The sales assistant, witnessing this scene, hurriedly chimed in, ma’am, please don’t refuse. The gentleman is being sincere, and you really look stunning in these clothes. Look at this one. As she spoke, the sales assistant picked up another dress, gesturing as she introduced it, trying to persuade Ren Yangshuan on Wang Chen’s behalf. Ren Yangshuan bit her lip, feeling torn inside but ultimately nodded gently, giving her silent consent. Seeing this, Wang Chen said to the sales assistant, Let’s settle the bill. Of course, sir. The total is 118,600 yuan. Please hold on a moment while I pack it up for you. The sales assistant’s cheeks flushed with excitement. Such a straightforward customer was rare. She quickly. took the bank card Wang Chen handed her and hurried to the front desk to pack the items. In no time, the sales assistant returned. Holding the carefully packed clothes, her face beaming as she handed the shopping bag and bank card back to Wang Chen. Thank you for visiting the Chanel flagship store again. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 118,600, double cashback 237,200. Ding! Congratulations! to the host for obtaining 11 system points. Just as she stepped out of the store, a gust of sea breeze brushed against her. face, bringing a hint of coolness. Ren Nyang Shuang instinctively hugged the clothes in her arms tighter, as if to confirm that this sudden luxury was indeed real. Clothes worth over a hundred thousand. This was something she had never even dared to dream of before. Wang Chen noticed her small gesture and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Under Wang Chen’s lead, the two arrived once, again at the entrance of a store. This was a leading specialty store. Wang Chen then took the still-daced Ren Nyang Shuang inside. Wang. Chen directly addressed the sales assistant, saying, give me three sets of your leading family bucket. One set is enough, Rin. Nyangxuan snapped back to reality and interrupted. Wang Chen replied nonchalantly, uncle and auntie have been using their phones for quite a while now, it’s time for an upgrade. All right, sir, do you need the P20 Pro, Mate 20 Pro, Matebook X Pro, Watch GT? All of these? The sales assistant was a bit taken aback and confirmed again. That’s right. Wang Chen nodded and said calmly. Then. Please confirm the color and memory configuration, and I’ll prepare them for you. The sales assistant said respectfully. What color do you like for the phone? Wang Chen turned to Ren Yang Shuang and asked. White is fine. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen told the sales. Assistant, one set of phones should be white, and the laptop and watch should be silver. The remaining two sets should be black, with the maximum memory. All right, sir, please wait a moment, my colleague will get the items for you, and please proceed to make the payment here. The sales assistant led Wang Chen to the front desk. She then said to Wang Chen, Hello, sir, the total for the models. You selected comes to 108 ,890 yuan. Swipe the card. Wang Chen took out his bank card and handed it over directly. Ding. The system. Detected that the host spent 108 ,890 and double cashback of 217,780 was granted. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10. System points. After the card was swiped, another staff member had already brought over the phones Wang Chen had chosen. Sir, here. Are the phones you selected, please take a look, and if there are no issues, I’ll wrap them up for you. Wang Chen looked at the phones. And laptop on the table, nodded, his expression somewhat complex. 2018 was a tough year for the leading brand. That year, it faced comprehensive sanctions from the beautiful country, supply chains were disrupted, and expanding into international markets was challenging. Yet even so, the leading brand gritted its teeth, persisted in innovation, and stubbornly pursued technology, showing no signs of retreat. This led to the continuous iteration and upgrade of the Kirin chip, making it a leader in the 5G field. The sales assistant quickly and carefully packaged the phones, laptops, and other items, thoughtfully including various accessories and user manuals. What are you still dawdling for? Just take the stuff and go. Wang Chen said to the dazed Ren Yangshuang. He then picked up a packaging bag and turned to walk outside. Ren Yangshuang glanced at Wang Chen, then at another bag prepared by the sales assistant, and reached out to pick it up. It wasn’t too heavy, it seemed that the heavier items like the laptop were in Wang Chen’s hands. Holding. The shopping bag, Ren Yangshuan jogged to catch up with Wang Chen. You’re really good to me. Ren Yangshuan said playfully, why? Did you suddenly buy me a phone? My phone is still usable. I noticed your phone is several years old, so I thought I’d get you a new. One. I figured you’d be happy for quite a while. So, how does it feel to be taken shopping like this? Do you feel like you’re being? Spoiled? Wang Chen said with a mischievous smile at Ren Yangshuan. Oh. Ren Ningxuan looked at the bustling crowd at the bond end. Instinctively exclaimed, reaching out to cover Wang Chen’s mouth, she stomped her foot in annoyance, pouting as she softly said, Why? Did you just say it out loud? It sounds so harsh. If someone else hears it, how embarrassing would that be? Ren Ningxuan looked. At the clothes in her hands and the latest model of phone and laptop, somewhat speechless as she said, There’s no one like you in. A sugar daddy arrangement. I haven’t given anything at all, yet you spend so much money on these expensive things for me. Aren’t you afraid? I might just run away? You were just saying how you’re different from other rich people, how you’re very cautious. And now this? Lucky for you it’s me. If it were some other bad woman, you’d just be waiting for your money to go down the drain. Ran Ning Shuang. Chuckled as she said, if you got tricked by another bad woman and ended up broke, I wouldn’t feel sorry for you. Wang Chen touched. His phone upon hearing this. Broke? 3 billion in his bank account. Spending 500,000 like tonight, how many women would it take to drain that 3 billion? One woman wouldn’t be enough. At least two women would be needed in one night. It would take a lifetime of scams to spend that 3 billion. And that’s not even counting the bank interest and the system’s cashback. What if he added his dad Wang Jianguo’s assets? Wang Chen frowned. Wang Jianguo had too much money. It was hard to calculate. He shook his head, dismissing the ridiculous thought. No one had been born yet who dared to deceive him. Just be careful. Don’t let a bad woman trick you. Ren Ningxuan casually said, M, by the way, can I ask how many women are around you? How many women? Wang Chen thought for a moment and said, including you, there are four. Ah. Ren Ning Shuang immediately made a bitter face and said, that’s too many. I thought there were only one or two. I can’t even be a mistress. What, are you regretting it? It’s too late to back out now. No. Ren Ning Shuang shook her head. She fluttered her beautiful, watery big eyes and said, can’t you just sweet talk me and say I’m the only one? You asked me. Wang Chen replied, a real man never lies. Hmph, a steel straight man who doesn’t understand a girl’s feelings at all. Ren Ningxuang pouted playfully, girls are such strange creatures, they know you’re lying, but sometimes they just want to hear sweet nothings to be coaxed. Even if they know in their hearts that it might just be flattery, hearing it in the moment still makes them happy and reassured, at least you could lie to me a bit to make me happy. Wang Chen smiled, the corners of his mouth lifting, I never deceive people, especially in front of my women. I’ve told them all, and I’ll tell you too, if one day you want to leave me, don’t want to stay by my side anymore, I’ll let you go anytime, we can part on good terms. Ren Ningxuang listened. quietly her heart filled with mixed emotions she opened her mouth wanting to say something but wang chen raised his hand gently to stop her and continued and i’ll give you a large sum of money enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life we both get what we need i’ll be honest with you i won’t hide anything ren ningshuang pouted her soft pink lips feeling a bit gloomy but she quickly returned to normal suddenly ren ningshuang asked expectantly then tell me besides me are there any other women in school no why are you suddenly asking this wang chen asked curiously That’s good. Ren Ningxuang sighed in relief. At least in school, I’m your only girlfriend and that makes me very satisfied. The slight frown on Ren Ningxuang’s face instantly. Relaxed. The corners of her mouth lifted high, revealing a row of white, neat teeth, her eyes sparkling with brilliance, she couldn’t help but bounce a little, her cheeks slightly flushed. Then, Ren Ningxuang grabbed Wang Chen’s arm and snuggled closely beside him. She affectionately rubbed her head against Wang Chen’s chest, her voice laced with a hint of playful coquetry as she said, I knew it. I. knew you only have me at school i was just overthinking earlier my heart racing but now i feel at ease he he can i tell everyone at school that i’m your girlfriend from now on anyway i spend most of my time at school so i can’t control what you do with other women outside nor can i see it wang chen chuckled are you playing ostrich deceiving yourself i don’t care running shuong shook wang chen’s arm vigorously pouting as she said brother wang chen just agree to me since there are no other women at school Just agree, or else it would be so embarrassing if people think I’m your mistress. I thought you didn’t care about these things. Wang Chin said lightly. Ren Ningxuan had been scolded so harshly on the campus forum before, yet she appeared so nonchalant. Did she really care now? Who really doesn’t care? I’m just pretending. Ren Ningxuan gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, a self-mocking smile playing on her lips, her eyes glinting with mischief. Think about it, I was scolded so badly on the campus forum. If I had cried immediately, that would have been so unconvincing. those people clearly wanted to see me make a fool of myself but i wouldn’t give them that satisfaction she slightly raised her chin puffing out her ample chest as she continued just agree to me so i can have a breath of relief and show those shameless women that even though i’m just a little wife in school i’m your legitimate girlfriend haha do whatever you want wang chin laughed at ren ningshuang’s optimistic attitude he could only go along with her you agreed ren ningshuang exclaimed with surprise i never refused wang chin said not caring about the title of girlfriend He always acted with integrity and couldn’t hide things. Besides, he had so many girlfriends, adding Ren Ningxuang as one wouldn’t make a difference. Some might worry that after having a girlfriend, other women would stop approaching Wang Chen. Such worries were completely unnecessary. Even if Wang Chen got married, as long as he wanted, he could have women lining up from the magic city to the beautiful country. He he he. Ren Ningxuang suddenly became cheerful, hugging Wang Chen’s arm as she said, I don’t care what others think, as long as you are sincere with me now, that’s enough. Saying this, she tilted her head against Wang Chen’s shoulder, a smile. On her lips, her eyes sparkling with a hint of pride. Didn’t you say that being with you means no sweet romance? Isn’t this it? Wang Chen glanced at Ren Ningxuan, her charming and lovely appearance stirring a ripple in his heart. He smiled slightly, raised his hand, and gently ruffled her hair, speaking softly, you really are easily satisfied. Ren Ningxuan blinked her eyes, gazing intently at Wang Chen, and said earnestly, of course. I don’t ask for much, just that you treat me sincerely, accompany me for meals, stroll. around and occasionally surprise me. I couldn’t care less about those mistress things. Ren Ningxuang patted her chest, exuding an air of complete trust in Wang Chen. Wang Chen was slightly taken aback, seemingly not expecting her to be so candid. The two walked leisurely along the streets of the Bund. Ren Ningxuang, what are you doing? You are so disappointing. Suddenly, an angry voice rang. Out. A yellow sports car screeched to a halt in front of Wang Chen and Ren Ningxuang.A young man in his 20s came down holding a cup of milk tea. He was wearing a yellow Meituan short -sleeved shirt and black shorts. Standing about 1.7 meters tall, he had an average appearance but was somewhat overweight, the kind of person you wouldn’t notice in a crowd. Ren Ningxuan looked at the man in front of her, and her smile immediately faded. A hint of impatience flashed in her eyes as she said flatly, Xia Yunfan, do you have something to say? Something to say. Ren Ningxuan, I want you to give me an explanation. The delivery guy named Xia Yunfan glared at Ren. Ningxuan, his eyes filled with anger. What are you to me that I need to explain myself to you? Ren Ningxuang replied somewhat. Impatiently, besides, we hardly know each other. Hardly know each other? Xia Yunfan laughed in anger, as if he had heard the biggest. Joke. Ren Ningxuang, you really are something. I’ve been pursuing you for four whole years, and now you say we don’t know each other? He stepped forward, his Meituan delivery uniform trembling slightly with his agitation, and the summer heat seemed to intensify. With his fury, Xia Yunfan looked at Ren Ningxuang in disbelief and said, I’ve been chasing you since the second year of high school. But you said you just wanted to study hard and weren’t planning to date before the college entrance exam. So what? Ran Ning Shuang frowned, her impatience becoming more evident. The past is the past. After graduation, everyone goes their separate ways, and we should not interfere with each other. Did you not feel my feelings for you all these years? Yes, I didn’t get into the same university as you, but I’ve been working hard just to be with you in the future, so you won’t be wronged. The more Xiaoyuan fans spoke, the more agitated he became, his emotions pouring out like a flood. He shouted at Ren Ning Shuang, we just haven’t seen each other for a while. And you found a rich second generation? Is this what you call not wanting to date? Xia Yunfan had just received a delivery order and had walked out of the milk tea shop to witness a scene that shattered his heart. His unattainable goddess, the one he had liked for six whole years since high school. Ren Ning Shuang, who claimed she wasn’t interested in dating and had no interest in boys, was now hugging a man intimately on the street. And it was Ren Ning Shuang who had initiated the hug. Xia Yunfan felt as if the sky was collapsing, and he became dizzy. When he regained his senses, he angrily blocked Ren Ning Shuang, hoping she would give him an explanation. Feelings cannot be forced, no matter how much you give, it doesn’t mean I have to respond. I have always regarded you as just an ordinary classmate, with no other intentions, Ren Ning Shuang said coldly to Xia Yunfan. You’ve always been the one to delude yourself, I have never responded to you or taken anything from you, and I’ve told you before, I don’t like you. I have a boyfriend now, that’s mine. freedom, and I love him very much. You have no reason to question me, and I don’t need to explain myself to you, if you have nothing. Else, just leave quickly, don’t waste my time, and, your delivery is going to be late. Wang Chen stood quietly to the side, watching, everything unfold. He felt a bit of sympathy for Xiaoyun Fan. As a man himself, he understood the bitterness of unrequited love. But, feelings cannot be one-sided. Xiaoyun Fan felt as if all his strength had been drained, and the milk tea in his hand fell to the ground. With a bang, splashing everywhere, the pearls scattering all around. Just like his shattered heart at that moment. His lips trembled. Slightly, and after a long pause, he hoarsely said, Ningxhuang, I know I may not be worthy of you, but after all these years, you really won’t give me even a little chance? Even just to try to understand me. Ran Ningxhuang firmly replied, no possibility means. No possibility. Stop entangling yourself like this, it’s not good for either of us. At that moment, Xiaoyunfan’s phone suddenly rang. With an urgent order notification. He glanced down at his phone, a flicker of struggle passing through his eyes, but in the end, he raised his hand and silenced the notification. Ren Ningxuang turned to look at Wang Chen, afraid that he might misunderstand. Horror. She then prepared to pull Wang Chen around Xia Yunfan. However, Xia Yunfan once again blocked her path. What exactly do you want? Ren Ningxuang’s face turned completely cold, her expression devoid of emotion as she stared at Xia Yunfan. I originally thought. You were different from other girls, but I was wrong. You’re just like those other women, so materialistic. You’re with this man. For money, you really disappoint me. Xia Yunfan’s face was filled with disappointment. Xia Yunfan, you are going too far. You don’t. Understand me at all. What right do you have to say that about me? Ren Ningxuan’s voice trembled slightly with anger, her grip on. Wang Chen’s hand tightening unconsciously. Wang Chen patted Ren Ningxuan’s hand to signal her to calm down. Ren Ningxuan looked at. Wang Chen and said, he and I were high school classmates, I made it clear to him, but he still keeps pestering me. No matter how. Many times I reject him, he remains indifferent. Actually, I’m not close to him, we were just classmates in high school. Wang Chen. Reached out to wrap his arm around Ren Ningxuang’s waist and said, It’s okay, I understand. Leave this to me to handle. Whom? Run. Ningxuang nodded obediently, then said somewhat anxiously, Be careful, I’m afraid he might hurt you. Don’t worry. The conversation. Between Wang Chen and Ren Ningxuang reached Xie Yunfan’s ears word for word. He looked at the two embracing each other, feeling as if. His heart was being stabbed by a knife. The inner pain surged like a tidal wave, completely drowning him. Xia Yunfan’s breathing became rapid and heavy, his chest heaving violently, his hands unconsciously clenching into fists, the knuckles turning pale to the point of near transparency. Do you think you can take her away just because you have some money? Xia Yunfan suddenly shouted, his voice hoarse. From anger and pain, Wangqin smiled faintly, turned to look at Xia Yunfan, and couldn’t help but shake his head. This was the classic image of a desperate suitor, but in the end, he had nothing. A true example of a lovesick fool. He had no time to waste on such a person, and immediately said to Xia Yunfan, we’re all adults here, you should understand that Ren Ningxuang is my girlfriend now. Stay. Away from her and stop pestering her. What do you mean, your girlfriend? Xia Yunfan’s face instantly turned red, and he angrily. Said, I’ve known Ningxuang for six years, pursued her for four years, taking care of her meticulously and loving her. What about you? What have you done? Wang Chen felt somewhat helpless, there was simply no way to communicate with such a person. Let’s go, no need. To pay attention to him. Wang Chen wrapped his arm around Ren Ningxuan’s waist and walked forward. Naturally, Ren Ningxuan would not oppose, obediently saying, MMMM. Xia Yunfan and Ren Ningxuan would no longer have any interactions in the future. Continuing. To argue with such a fool would only waste time, completely unnecessary. Don’t try to convince someone with a low level of understanding. Otherwise, they will drag your intelligence down to their level. Get out of the way. Xia Yunfan was still trying to block Wang Chen. Wangchen looked at Xia Yunfan, who was more than a head shorter than him, a hint of speechlessness flashing in his eyes. Standing. At 1.88 meters tall, he looked down at him, and although Wangchen’s tone was calm, it was filled with a sense of oppression. Xia Yunfan instinctively stepped aside. Wangchen brushed past him with Ren Ningxuang and walked forward. It was as if Xia Yunfan suddenly realized something. Feeling embarrassed, he turned to Ren Ningxuang and shouted, what makes him better than me? You only like him. Because he’s rich, you’re too naive. A person like him is just playing with you, and once he gets bored, he’ll kick you aside. By then, it will be too late for you to regret. Nyang Shuang, give me a chance, I am the only one who is sincere to you, as long as you are. With me, I will give you whatever you want. Nyang Shuang, the two did not stop their steps. Seeing this, Xia Yunfan became even more frantic, Ren Nyang Shuang, you will regret it. While you are keeping me hanging, you are looking for a rich second generation. If you get abandoned in the future, don’t come crying to me. Wang Chen’s footsteps came to a halt. He originally did not want to argue with such a person, but upon hearing Xiaoyun Fan speak so harshly to Ren Nyong Shuang, he could not stand by. Wang Chen’s expression, darkened as he released his hold on Ren Nyong Shuang’s hand and turned back to face Xiaoyun Fan. Seeing Wang Chen return, Xiaoyun Fan, instinctively took a step back and said, what do you want to do? Nothing. Wang Chen looked at him calmly and said, do you think you, are very deep in your feelings? Do you think that without you, Ren Nyong Shuang will never find a man who loves her as much? Xia. Yunfuan’s expression froze. Wangqin glanced at him disdainfully and continued, look at yourself, poor and fat, what do you have to give? Nyang Shuang happiness? Since you can’t give Nyang Shuang happiness, why do you want to stop her from living a better life? Out of. Jealousy? This society is very realistic, and you are an adult now, wake up a little. I can give Ren Nyang Shuang the life she wants. A house, a car, bags, these are not issues. If she wants to not work, she doesn’t have to work. If she wants to travel, she can go. Wherever she wants. What can you give her? Is it delivering takeout in the wind and rain every day, earning just enough to barely make ends meet? Is it living in a cramped rental with you, worrying about the cost of daily necessities? Or will she have to hesitate, repeatedly just to buy a piece of clothing she likes at the mall, calculating whether the little money in her pocket is enough? Wang Chen’s words were like sharp blades, piercing directly into Xiaoyun Fan’s heart. Among the crowd of onlookers, some whispered to each other. Although Wang Chen’s words were blunt and hurtful, they also revealed the helplessness of reality. Xiaoyun Fan unconsciously clenched his fists and retorted, I can give her love. Ridiculous, how much is love worth? Wang Chin shook his head, chuckling lightly. As he said, love without a material foundation is fragile and can’t withstand a blow. You keep saying you can give her love, but when she is sick in the hospital and needs a large sum of money for treatment, can your love turn into life-saving medical expenses? When she wants a stable home, a shelter from the storm, can your love conjure up a house? One must have self-awareness, when life is at a low point, don’t think about how to chase girls. You should think about how to improve yourself and earn the life and girl you want. Through your own efforts. Instead of clinging here, wallowing in self-pity, putting on a pathetic and sad lover’s act. Feelings. Cannot be obtained through entanglement, and reality is not like a movie, a princess cannot just run away with a commoner because of a. Moment of hormonal explosion. To put it bluntly, if you can’t even support yourself, what qualifications do you have to talk about? Love? Wang Chen’s words made Xiaoyunfan feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, a bone-chilling cold enveloping him. Xiaoyunfan. swayed slightly as if he had been struck hard, nearly losing his balance. The gazes of the surrounding people felt like needles piercing into him and the whispers seemed to turn into sharp mockery, drilling into his ears. Xia Yunfan’s eyes turned red, his teeth grinding. What do you mean? Say it again. What, realizing your own inadequacy and now you want to get physical? Wang Chen mocked, I can hit you and then I can walk away in scathe with no consequences. And you. And you. Wang Chen smiled, a smile full of. disdain and contempt if you touch a hair on me even if you go bankrupt you won’t be able to afford it kid mature a little and accept reality the game of reality is not just about who is stronger if you don’t believe it you can certainly give it a try although wang shin didn’t bring his bodyguards tonight his superhuman physical abilities made it impossible for sia yun fan to defeat him with just one hand sia yun fan was panting heavily his chest rising and falling violently his face flushed red even though he was Furious, the last shred of rationality in his mind told him not to act. He knew that Wang Chen was not someone he could provoke. Wang Chen looked at him coldly, reached out, and patted Xia Yunfan’s face, saying, this time I’m talking to you nicely, next time, it might be different. You’re really pushing your luck. Xia Yunfan didn’t expect Wang Chen to humiliate him like this. Although Wang Chen had only patted his face, Xia Yunfan felt a sharp pain radiating from it. He stood there, frozen, the burning sensation on his face. constantly reminding him of the humiliation he was enduring. Xia Yinfan wished he could rush up and fight Wang Chen to the death. However, reason ultimately triumphed over impulse. His tightly clenched fists slowly relaxed, leaving crescent -shaped imprints from his nails embedded in his palms. After Wang Chen finished speaking, he turned and left with Rin Ningxuan. The two of them walked away, chatting and laughing, as if nothing significant had just occurred. Wang Chen put everything in the car, checked the time, and saw it was already midnight. He decided to go to the nearby Bulgari hotel for an unforgettable night with Ren Ningxuang. Wang Chen then called for a designated driver and hailed a taxi by the roadside. Driver, take us to the Bulgari hotel, Wang Chen said to the driver. In the backseat, Ren Ningxuang instinctively tightened her grip on Wang Chen’s hand upon hearing they were going to a hotel. She remained silent for a while, feeling her heart rate gradually increase. After a short while, the taxi stopped at the entrance of the Bulgari hotel. The designated driver parked the car and handed the keys to Wang Chen. The total fare was 135 yuan. After taking the keys, Wang Chen held Ren Ningxuan’s hand and walked into the Bulgari hotel. Hello, Mr. Wang, your room is ready. Here is your room card. As soon as they entered, Butler Lin was already waiting, bowing slightly and handing over the room card. Wang Chen had contacted Butler Lin before coming, asking him to book a Bulgari suite. Thank you for your trouble, Wang Chen said, taking out his bank card. Mr. Wang, you are too polite. You are our most distinguished guest at the Bulgari Hotel, this is what we should do, Butler. Lin replied respectfully as he took the bank card. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 280 ,088 with a double cashback of 560,176.Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning 28 system points. Wang Chen smiled, took back his bank card, and headed towards the elevator with Ren Ning Shuang. Butler Lin, understanding the situation, did not follow them, only watching Wang Chen from the lobby. Ding. After a while, the elevator doors opened. It was the same room that Wang Chen had opened last time. He stopped in front of the room, swiped the card, and entered, turning on all the lights. Ren Ningxuan was momentarily stunned by the luxurious scene inside the room. She stared with wide eyes, filled with amazement and disbelief. What greeted her was a floor-to-ceiling window that occupied an entire wall. Outside was the dazzling view of the bond. The shimmering waves of the Huangpu River reflected the towering skyscrapers. of Lu Giazui across the river, with neon lights flickering and traffic bustling. Beneath her feet was a soft, thick, custom-made carpet, so plush that each step felt like walking on clouds, making her reluctant to step on it. On the sidebar, various rare wines. From around the world were displayed, from top French red wines to Scottish whiskeys, everything one could imagine. The glass doors of. The wine cabinet sparkled under the light, Ren Ningshuang slowly paced around the room, her fingers gently touching every piece of decor. Marvelling at this luxurious life. How much does this night cost? Ren Ningxuan couldn’t help but exclaim. Not much, Wang Chen. Replied casually. I don’t believe that. You can spend over two hundred thousand on a meal. How could this hotel, so extravagant, cost so little? Almost three hundred thousand, I suppose. Ah. Ren Ningxuan gasped, instinctively covering her mouth with her hands. You should go take a shower first, Wang Chen said lazily, lying on the sofa. What do I need a shower for? Ren Ningxuan’s face turned crimson, her heart racing like a little rabbit. She understood Wang Chen’s implication, but the thought of what might happen next made her heart race even more. Don’t be nervous, Wang Chen seemed to sense her thoughts, his tone softening further. It’s just a simple shower to relax, I promise. Didn’t you say you learned dance since elementary school? I want to appreciate your dance. Moves. Well, okay then. Ren Ningxuan bit her lips lightly and walked toward the bathroom with small, somewhat awkward steps. Once inside, she gently closed the door and leaned against it, her hand resting on her chest trying to calm her heart that was racing. like a startled deer. After her shower, Ren Ningxuan wrapped herself in a towel and looked at her reflection in the mirror. The steam made her skin appear even fairer and smoother, with a faint pink hue. The towel was tightly wrapped around her chest, yet it still couldn’t hide the fullness and firmness of her curves. Her long, straight legs peeked out slightly from beneath the towel, their lines smooth and graceful, the skin flawless and delicate. Her slender ankles looked exquisite, like a fine piece of art, making one unable to resist stealing a few more glances. Come on, Ren Ningxuan, isn’t this what you’ve been looking forward to? Taking a deep breath, Ren Ningxuan opened the bathroom door and slowly walked out. Wang Chin was sitting on the sofa, holding a glass of red wine, his gaze casually fixed on the television screen. Hearing the movement, he turned his head and was instantly captivated by the sight of Ren. Ningxuan. Ningxuan, you look beautiful, Wang Chin couldn’t help but exclaim, his eyes filled with admiration. He stepped forward and embraced her tightly. Ren Ningxuan’s body stiffened slightly, the blush on her face spreading to her ears. Her hands instinctively pressed against Wang Chen’s chest as if wanting to push him away, but she didn’t exert much force, nearly resting them there. Lightly. Wang Chen, I. I’m really happy to have met you. Wang Chen slowly released her, cupping Ren Ningxuan’s face in his hands, gazing into her eyes with deep affection. Ningxuan, I will always treat you well, trust me. With that, Wang Chen gradually lowered. His head, leaning closer to Ren Ningxuan’s lips. Her heart raced suddenly and her eyes fluttered shut. In that moment, the entire world seemed to quiet down, leaving only the intertwined sounds of their breaths and Run Ning Shuang’s rapid heartbeat. The air was filled with an intoxicating atmosphere. Soft light bathed them, outlining their ambiguous silhouettes. Boom. Boom. The next day, Wang Chen drove his cool Apollo IE to school. It’s Wang Chen. Is that Run Ning Shuang sitting next to him? It was just after class. And the campus was bustling with students pointing at the car. However, they all consciously made way for the vehicle, their gazes, filled with envy as they looked at the Apollo IE. Under the envious eyes of his classmates, the car headed straight for the girls’ dormitory. In no time, Wang Chen parked the Apollo IE at the entrance of the girls’ dormitory. At that moment, there were girls just returning from class and some students chatting outside the dormitory building. Wang Chen’s cool Apollo IE slowly came to a stop, instantly, attracting everyone’s attention. The roar of the engine gradually faded. Wang Chen turned off the car and stepped out, many girls around. We’re getting excited. Wow, it’s Wang Chen, he’s so handsome. This is the Apollo i.e., a globally limited supercar, I still think. This car is a bit cooler. Wang Chen, can you not be so handsome? I just did my nails. If I could date Wang Chen, even if it meant winning 5 million in the lottery, I would be willing. A girl wearing black-rimmed glasses and with a ponytail was so nervous that her hands were slightly trembling. She tightly gripped her best friend’s arm, her voice shaking noticeably, I. I’m not dreaming. Am I? This is really Wang Chen. If I could just say one word to him, I would do anything. The girls were making all sorts of highly charged comments. As the main force of the school forum, they were far more aware of the events of the past few days than the boys. A man like Wang Chen was usually just a figure they fantasized about in their dreams. Seeing him in person today naturally made them ecstatic, each one turning into a fangirl, excited like they were chasing a star. Wang Chen could only smile helplessly. He could only blame his own charm. Not only was he wealthy and handsome, but he also single-handedly sent the dean and department head to prison, bringing peace to the campus. Naturally, he became the perfect idol in the hearts of the girls. Ran Yangshuang stepped out of the passenger seat, her legs feeling weak as she looked at the crowd gathering around. She frowned slightly. After getting out of the car, she walked over to Wang Chan and naturally linked her arm with his. Who is this? In an instant, the girls fell silent. The gazes of the surrounding girls shot towards Ran Yangshuang in unison. In those looks, there was jealousy, unwillingness, and an unmistakable hostility. How could Ren Nyanshuang be with Wang Chen? Moreover, she was linking arms with him. If Wang Chen had sent Ren Nyanshuang back to the girls’ dormitory, didn’t that mean they were together last night too? Whispers began to circulate in the crowd, with various speculations and discussions rising and falling. How could Ren Nyanshuang be worthy of Wang Chen? I refuse to accept it. One girl muttered, her face full of discontent. Exactly, she usually seems indifferent to boys. How did she end up flirting with Wang Chen? Another girl echoed, her tone full of disdain. The girl’s hearts were shattered. They wished they could take her place. Why did Ran? Nyangxuan get to flirt with Wang Chen? It should be noted that many of the posts cursing Ren Nyangxuan on the school forum were written, by them. Now seeing her with Wang Chen was more painful than being killed. Ren Nyangxuan listened to these harsh words, yet her face, still wore a faint smile, showing no signs of panic or fear. She gently tightened her grip on Wang Chen’s arm. Her posture was natural. And intimate, as if declaring to the world her close relationship with Wang Chen. Ren Yangshuang smiled proudly and stood on her tiptoes. To kiss Wang Chen on the cheek. You guys, stop teasing me. Being with him is indeed very happy. He is very considerate and cares. About my feelings. Ren Yangshuang’s cheeks flushed again as she playfully swatted her roommate’s hand, saying, just look at you. I can tell, once you return to the dorm, you can’t hide your smile. I wish I had a boyfriend like Wang Chen. The girl who had. Been staring at her phone screen earlier said with some emotion. Ran Nyengshuang smiled slightly and remained silent. She quietly took out her phone. She opened the banking app and stared blankly at the long string of numbers in her balance. The phone clearly displayed. 1 million Hua Xia coins. This was what Wang Chen had transferred to her this morning. Not the 800,000 she wanted, but 1 million. According to Wang Chen, how could my woman be short on money? If it’s not enough, just ask him for more. Ran Nyengshuang felt very happy. Being with Wang Chen was the best choice she had ever made in her life. In her future life, she would no longer have to scrimp and save. Just to save a few bucks, she wouldn’t have to work multiple part-time jobs every day. She could enjoy sweet milk tea like other girls, and sell the dresses she liked. Most importantly, her mother’s surgery could finally be done. Wang Chen drove the Apollo IE and parked downstairs by the classroom building. After parking, he walked towards the junior classroom. Today, he was attending an open. class in business administration titled, Marketing, Mysticism or Science. In his previous life, Wang Chen never missed a single class. He was quite familiar with the subject matter. Now that he was back, it felt like a nostalgic return to the days of attentively listening to lectures. Soon, Wang Chen arrived at the classroom on the second floor. However, he was a bit late. At the podium, a professor in his 40s was lecturing. Seeing all the eyes in the classroom focused on him, Wang Chen could only helplessly knock on the door and say, sorry, I’m late. The professor noticed him and immediately stopped speaking. When he realized it was Wang Chen, the expression of mild annoyance on his face instantly vanished, replaced by a look of surprise as he said, it’s fine, it’s fine. Classmate Wang, just find a seat and sit down. If you’re late next time, you don’t need to knock, just come in. As a professor at the school, he was well aware of Wang Chen’s powerful background. After all, he was someone who had been sent in by both the dean and the department head. Wang Chen’s name was widely known among the school’s leaders and faculty. When he first learned he would be teaching Wang Chen’s grade, he was quite worried, fearing he might inadvertently offend Wang Chen and bring trouble upon himself. However, Wang Chen’s demeanor today was not as intimidating as rumored he was quite a nice kid. This unexpectedly made the professor feel more favorable towards him. Wang Chen nodded at the professor. He walked into the classroom and was about to find a seat when he noticed someone in the last row waving at him. Wang Chen, over here, I have a spot. Wang Chen focused and saw it was Yao Jinglong. He walked to the last row and, sat down next to Yao Jinglong. Curiously, he asked, aren’t you a freshman? Why are you here for a junior open class? I’ve already self-studied all of this, these courses are too easy for me. I thought I’d come here and see if I could run into you. Isn’t that a coincidence? You just happened to come to class. Yao Jinglong smiled, revealing a big white grin. All right, students, let me introduce myself again. My name is Du Yuanqing, and I am your instructor for this class. At the same time, I am also a professor in the marketing. Department of Our Schools Business Administration College. If you have any questions after class, feel free to come to me privately. Professor Du Yuanqing adjusted his glasses and scanned the classroom with a gentle gaze, continuing, I have been deeply involved in the marketing field for many years and have participated in numerous marketing projects for various companies. Marketing is by no means a theoretical subject, it is a discipline that closely connects theory and practice while being full of innovative vitality. Buzz buzz buzz. As Professor Du Yuanqing’s lecture reached a good rhythm, a sudden ringtone echoed through the quiet classroom, sounding particularly jarring. Professor Du’s gaze immediately turned towards the source of the ringtone, only to find it was coming. From Wang Chen. Wang Chen felt his phone vibrating in his pocket and felt a bit embarrassed. He quickly took out his phone and saw it. Was a call from Wang Sikong. Wang Chen paused, raising his hand to gesture to Professor Du. Professor Du smiled broadly, nodding to indicate. It was fine. This pleasant demeanor was unmistakable. Wang Chen stood up and walked out of the classroom, stepping into the corridor. Outside the classroom, I answered the phone. Hello, old Wang, what’s up? I’m in class right now. Wang Chen, just wanted to let you. Know that the yangla didayan and lentingi su I borrowed from you have been delivered to your house. Check it out when you get. Home tonight and if there’s any problem, let me know right away, Wang Sikong said on the other end of the line. It’s fine, as long. As they were returned, Wang Chen replied casually. Ever since they returned to the magic city, Wang Sikong had borrowed the yangla. Dadayan and Lan Tinggi Su, claiming he wanted to show off in front of his father. You have no idea, I’ve been scolded at home for years, barely able to stay for a few minutes. Finally, I can enjoy some peace and quiet this time. Wang Sitsong’s tone was filled with ease. Wang Chen’s lips curled slightly, revealing a barely noticeable faint smile as he said, looks like these two treasures are quite effective, giving you a few days of comfort. Absolutely. When my dad saw these two items, his eyes nearly popped out. His attitude. Towards me has done a complete 180 these past few days. Taking this opportunity, I managed to extort a good sum from him. Wang Sikong. Grew more excited as he spoke, his voice rising a few notches. Alright, then you can treat next time. Wang Chen listened while, subconsciously tapping his fingers lightly on the corridor railing, admiring the scenery of the campus. Of course. Wang Sikong readily. Agreed, his tone brimming with enthusiasm. How about tomorrow night? I’ll invite Qin Fun and a few others, and we can all have a blast at my bar. I’m not sure if I’ll have time tomorrow, how about the day after? Wang Chen frowned slightly. What’s wrong? If you need help, just say the word, Wang Sikong asked with concern. It’s nothing much, Wang Chen replied helplessly. Ever since I returned from the high seas, the news about me acquiring the Yongle Dodayan and Lantingi suit seems to have spread. These past few days, museums in the capital and some unknown institutions have been calling me every day, asking me to donate the Yongle Dodayan and Lantingi suit to them. I figured the Yongle Didayan isn’t of much use to me, so I might as well donate it to the state. That way, they won’t keep bothering me every day. Wang Chen held a deep admiration for those historians, at least the enthusiasm they showed. For the Yongle Didayan was something most people couldn’t match. The Yongle Didayan was of no use to him, and instead, it attracted attention from various parties. Although he wasn’t afraid of their covetousness, having too many flies around could be annoying. So, he decided to donate it to the National Museum. he would keep the Lan Tinggi Siu for himself. This was a treasure that emperors threw out. History had sought but could not obtain and Wang Chen was quite fond of it. Moreover, aside from the envy of those calligraphy associations, it had little practical use for historical research. He believed his father would appreciate this gift if he had the chance. To send it home. You’re really going to donate the Yanla Dadayan? Wang Sitsong’s eyes widened in disbelief on the other end of the phone. Do you know how precious the Yanla Dadayan is? So many people would do anything to get their hands on it for private collection, and you’re just going to donate it? If I had known, I would have let my dad enjoy it for a few more days, it won’t be easy to see it again later. This thing is of no use to me, so let those experts and scholars study it. Once they finish their research, putting it in a museum will allow more people to see it and realize its true value. Wang Chen’s tone was calm, but his attitude was resolute. You really are something. Wang Sikong was momentarily speechless, then took a moment before saying, just one page of the Yunla did die and taken out is worth a fortune, how many collectors dream of it? And you just donate it to the state? If it were me, I couldn’t bear to part with it. Wang Sikong clicked his tongue in amazement, secretly admiring Wang Chan’s generosity. These material possessions are just that, things we can’t take with us when we die. I keep it just to display it there, it would be better to let it contribute to the country’s cultural research, and putting it in a museum would allow more people to understand our historical culture. How wonderful is that? It can’t compare, your awareness is just higher. Wang Sikong sighed and said with a hint of teasing, but, with this donation, you might become famous right away. The media will definitely report on it, and you’ll be known all over the. Internet. I’ve already contacted the museum and the capital, this matter will be handled internally with a small ceremony, and we won’t. Invite the media for extensive coverage, Wang Chen said. Upon hearing this, Wang Sikong was first taken aback, then burst into. Laughter, you really are low-key. If it were someone else who knows how they would exploit this opportunity to hype themselves up. But. You, on the other hand, seem afraid that others will find out. Being low-key is the way to go. Wang Chen smiled helplessly, I really don’t have that mindset. I just want to donate the cultural relics without too much external interference. People fear fame like pigs. Fear growing fat. Wang Chen, having lived a second life, now just wants to enjoy life properly. He doesn’t want too many people to pay attention to him for the time being. If he were like Wang Sikong, constantly under the media spotlight, every word and action would have to be cautious. That would be too uncomfortable. Alright, I understand what you mean. Wang Sikong nodded on the other end of the phone. He understood Wang Chen’s concerns all too well, he himself had suffered from the media’s troubles. Those cameras were always pointed at him, and with the slightest misstep, a word or action could be taken out of context by the media, causing a huge uproar. Online. Just a few days ago, he had merely gathered with friends at a bar. But the next day, the entertainment news headline read, Wang Sikong splurges late at night, luxurious nightlife exposed. It was quite tiresome for him. Let’s leave it at that, we’ll talk again at the bar the day after tomorrow. All right, then I’ll hang up. Wang Chin ended the call, and before he could return to the classroom, his phone rang again. Seeing it was a call from Lung Phong, he answered directly, Hello, what’s the matter? Boss, we’ve received. The young Le Didian and Len Tinggy Su sent by Mr. Wang Sikong, and they are in perfect condition, now safely stored in the studies. Safe. Lung Phong’s respectful voice came through the phone. Good, thank you for your hard work. During this time, we must strengthen. The security at home, especially in the places where these two items are stored, there must be no mistakes. Wang Chen’s tone was. Somewhat serious. Rest assured, boss. I’ve arranged for double the manpower, with 24-hour shifts to ensure everything is foolproof. Also, the people from the National Museum will be coming to Magic City tomorrow, you’ll need to cooperate during the handover, so. Prepare in advance. Understood, boss. Before the handover tomorrow, I will check everything again to ensure there are no issues. Long Feng quickly responded. Alright, report to me immediately if anything comes up. Wang Chen hung up the phone and then walked. Towards the classroom. Meanwhile, in a room beneath the heavenly palace, Lung Phong was methodically carrying out the final preparations. He gathered all personnel involved in security work and reiterated the importance of the task and precautions. Tomorrow, the people from the National Museum will come to receive the Yongle de Dayan. This is a national treasure-level cultural relic. Lung Feng’s gaze was sharp as he scanned each team member. Everyone must be fully alert. No minor anomaly can be overlooked. The team members stood in. A neat row and responded in unison, received. As soon as Wang Chen walked into the classroom, he found that the class had already ended. Wow, Wang Chen, I didn’t expect to be in the same class as you, I’m so lucky. Before Wang Chen could react, a group of girls surged towards him like a tide. So handsome. You look even better in person than in the legends. A girl with a ponytail blushed. And excitedly said, Wang Chen, what club activities do you usually participate in? Is there anything fun? Bring us along, Wang Chen. was a bit taken aback by this sudden enthusiasm and after a moment of hesitation he managed to squeeze out a smile and said, I haven’t joined any clubs, I just exercise occasionally. No wonder your figure is so good. A girl in tight yoga pants looked at Wang Chen with bold and fiery eyes, staring at him intently while deliberately pushing out her chest. Wang Chen, how do you usually work out? Can you teach me? I’ve been struggling to find a good fitness method lately. As she spoke, she casually flicked her long hair with her fingers. Yao Jinglong stood outside the crowd, shrugging his shoulders at Wang Chen, his face showing a helpless expression of I can’t help you either. Wang Chen, just teach me. The girl in the tight yoga pants persisted, leaning in closer. The surrounding. Girls chimed in agreement. This, this. Wang Chen felt as if he was trapped in a circle with no way to escape. Hubby, what are you doing here? At that moment, Ren Ningxuan stood at the classroom door, looking at Wang Chen with a beaming smile. The word hubby was like a heavy bomb, instantly exploding among the girls. The girls who had been chattering around Wang Chen suddenly froze, their smiles vanishing in an instant, replaced by expressions of disappointment and disbelief. The girl in the tight yoga pants, who had been boldly staring at Wang Chen, now looked utterly incredulous. How could it be? Wang Chen actually has a girlfriend. Yeah. How come it’s Rin Ningxuan? Didn’t Wang Chen already reject her? The surrounding girls erupted into whispers, exchanging glances. Seeing this, Wang Chen quickly ran out of the classroom. Ningxuan, thank goodness you came in time. That was so scary. Wang Chen sighed in relief, patting his chest, and continued, I didn’t know how to deal with those girls. I felt like if I stayed any longer, I would have been devoured by them. Ha ha, look at how scared you are, is it really that exaggerated? Ran Ning Shuang couldn’t help but chuckle. She laughed while gently punching Wang Chen’s shoulder. You have no idea, their eyes were like they were going to eat. Me alive, I was really impressed. Wang Chen shook his head helplessly, pouring out his recent experience. Ha, it seems you have quite the charm with so many girls surrounding you. Ren Ningxuang teased but a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes. She stepped forward, wrapped her arm around Wang Chen’s and stood on her tiptoes to give him a kiss on the chi, saying, it’s time for dinner. Let’s go eat together. Hey, Yao Jinglong, you’re here too, want to join us? Yao Jinglong crossed his arms, scanning Wang Chen and Ren. Ningxuang from top to bottom. After a moment, he said with a mournful face, when did you two start dating behind my back? Wang Chen, you really should die. This is worse than killing me. Sigh. Epsilon equals Omicron asterisk you guys go ahead, I won’t join. Yao Jinglong sighed, waving his hand with a somewhat dejected expression. Then he turned and left the teaching building alone. His back looked a bit lonely. And he mumbled, how did Wang Chen find a girlfriend? Why isn’t any girl pursuing me? I’m not bad either, I’m so handsome and have money? What went wrong? Under the gaze of Wang Chen and Ren Ningxuan, Yao Jinglong’s figure disappeared from sight. What happened? To Yao Jinglong? Run Ningshuang asked, looking at his departing back with a puzzled expression. Wang Chen shrugged helplessly, smiled, and didn’t reply. This guy is usually carefree and spontaneous, who knows what madness he’s up to now. Let’s go, it’s time to. Eat? Wang Chen turned and asked, what do you want to eat? I’m fine with anything, darling, whatever you eat, I’ll eat too. Run. Ningshuang nestled sweetly beside Wang Chen, speaking in a charming manner. Then let’s go home now, and I’ll eat you. Wang Chen couldn’t. Help but grin mischievously. Oh, how about we change it up? I danced all night yesterday and my legs are still weak, maybe I should rest a bit and see if I can dance later, alright then. Wang Chen felt a bit disappointed. Hehe, you’re so nice, darling. I’ll reward you with a kiss, Epsilon. Mr. Wang, we originally planned to hold a grand donation ceremony, inviting many big names from the cultural sector, media friends, and enthusiastic individuals from all walks of life to witness this great moment together. Director. Cal looked at Wang Chen with gratitude and continued, after all, this donation is of great significance and deserves a proper. celebration, why don’t you reconsider? Yes, Mr. Wang, your kind act should be known by more people. Yang Xiaobo chimed in from the side. After hearing this, Wang Chen smiled and waved his hand, saying, I appreciate the intentions of both directors, truly thank you. You three are all my elders, so don’t call me Mr. Wang, just call me Xiao Wang. I’m not fond of too much fuss, so let’s skip the ceremony. Director Gao and Yang Xiaobo exchanged glances, their eyes filled with admiration for Wang Chen. It’s truly rare for someone. So young to have such a detached attitude towards fame and fortune. Nowadays, young people jump at the chance to be famous fearing the spotlight isn’t bright enough. But Wang Chen only thinks about acting low-key. At such a young age he can calmly purchase antiques, worth billions, and then unhesitatingly choose to donate. His background must be extraordinary. Moreover, his humble and polite demeanor. When speaking, addressing both him and Yang Xiaobo as elders shows no hint of arrogance due to wealth. This is in stark contrast. to those young people who, given the chance, want to flaunt themselves in front of the media. True aristocrats don’t need a donation ceremony to showcase their good deeds. They care more about the significance of the act itself. Wang Chen’s low-key style of doing things perfectly reflects his extraordinary identity. Then I’ll take the liberty to call you Xiao Wang. Your maturity and style at such a young age put us old-timers in the circle to shame. It’s truly humbling. Director Gao said with a look of emotion. So many young. People, when they get a chance to shine, wish the whole world would revolve around them. Your calmness and detachment are truly rare. Yang Xiaobo nodded in agreement, a gentle smile on his face, having such awareness at a young age, the future is promising. Professor Wei Qiming stepped forward and gently patted Wang Chen’s shoulder, saying, good kid, if you ever encounter any difficulties in the future, feel free to come to me, I may not be able to say much elsewhere, but I can still hold my own in the cultural sector. You, three seniors are overpraising me. Wang Chen humbly replied. These seniors clearly didn’t know his background, but Wang Chen had no intention of boasting about it. However, he genuinely felt their concern for him. Wang Chen slightly bowed and sincerely said, to receive such praise from the three seniors, I truly feel unworthy. Director Gao waved his hand with a smile, Xiao Wang, don’t be so modest. At that moment, Professor Wei suddenly said to Director Gao, old Gao, I see some pages of the books have already shown signs of damage, like insect bites and moisture causing yellowing. We need to handle it quickly. Gao Zhang’s expression turns serious as. He said, Professor Wei, you need to call the ancient book restoration team at the organization immediately, along with the relevant experts, to formulate a restoration and protection plan right away. Gao Zhang then looked at Wang Chen, his face filled with apology, and said, I’m really sorry, I originally wanted to have a meal with you, but given the situation, I must rush back to the capital to handle this. Director Gao, there’s no need to say that. Protecting the Yangli encyclopedia is the most important thing. You go ahead. and take care of your matters. Wang Chin quickly waved his hand in response. Gao Zhang immediately turned around and shouted to the staff outside, contact the head of museum security right away and have him select the best security personnel to form a special escort. Team to ensure safety. The staff quickly took their orders and left. Gao Zhang then took out his phone and quickly dialed a number. Hello, it’s me, Gao Zhang. There’s an emergency, the Yongle Encyclopedia needs to be escorted back to the capital immediately. Arrange. A private jet and prepare for takeoff as soon as possible, the faster the better. After hanging up, Gao Zhang reminded Professor Wei. Again, Professor Wei, when the security personnel arrive, make sure to pack the Yongle Encyclopedia properly. Use the best protective materials to ensure it suffers no damage during transport. Don’t worry, Lao Gao, I’ll keep a close eye on it, Professor Wei replied. Before long, the head of security arrived with a team of fully armed security personnel. Gao Zhang looked at them seriously and said. This mission is extremely important. You must protect the Yongle Encyclopedia as if it were your own life. If anything goes wrong, no one can bear the consequences. The security personnel shouted in unison, we guarantee to complete the mission. Then, Professor Li and the staff carefully placed the Yongle Encyclopedia back into the safe. They filled the surrounding area with soft, cushioning, protective materials to ensure each volume was securely fixed. Gao Zhang stood by, keeping a close watch, occasionally reminding them. Be gentle, check again to ensure there are no gaps and make sure it can’t move. Once everything was ready, Gao Zhang and Professor Li walked towards the museum exit under the tight escort of the security personnel. Wang Chen and Yang Xiaobo followed behind, their expressions concerned. At the museum entrance, an armored vehicle had been waiting for a long time. The security personnel carefully placed the safe containing the Yangli encyclopedia into the vehicle and then Gao Zhang and Professor Wei also got in. Gao Zhang rolled. down the window and said to Wang Chen, thanks to you this time, the Capitol Museum welcomes your visit anytime. Director Gao, you’re too polite, I won’t hesitate to bother you in the future, Wang Chen replied with a smile. After saying that, Director Gao waved goodbye to Wang Chen and Yang Xiaobo before rolling up the window. As the roar of the engine sounded, the armored vehicle slowly started moving, escorted by a convoy of security vehicles, gradually leaving the museum. Wang Chen and Yang Xiaobo stood in place, watching the convoy disappear at the end of the street. Phew! Yang Xiaobo let out a long breath and said, I hope the journey goes smoothly. At. That moment, Wang Chen turned to Yang Xiaobo and smiled, Director Yang, I’m heading back now. If anything comes up later, feel free to. Contact me. Alright, be safe on your way, Yang Xiaobo nodded with a smile, patting Wang Chen on the shoulder. Wang Chen acknowledged. And walked towards his Ferrari LaFerrari with his bodyguard, Leng Fong. Leng Fong quickly stepped forward, opened the car door, and. Wang Chen slid into the driver’s seat, starting the car with ease. V room. V room. accompanied by a deep and powerful engine sound. The Ferrari LaFerrari slowly drove out of the museum parking lot. Once on the streets of the magic city, the LaFerrari burst forth, like a released cheetah, instantly showcasing its tremendous acceleration. The car sped down the road like a red lightning bolt. The tires screeched against the pavement, leaving fleeting traces behind the scenery on both sides of the street seemed to be fast-forwarding, rapidly retreating behind. Passers-by glanced over. The wind blew through the car window, making a whooshing sound, tousling wang. Chen’s hair. In the brief moment waiting for the traffic light, he opened his phone to scroll through the news. A headline about a mysterious billionaire donating the Youngla Encyclopedia caught his eye. This mysterious billionaire is incredible. It’s the Youngla. Encyclopedia. I heard it was bought at an auction overseas. Yeah, yeah, apparently this billionaire spent 60 billion to acquire. The Youngla Encyclopedia. Oh my god, 60 billion. I could never earn even a fraction of that in my lifetime. 60 billion. Just like that, this scale is simply astonishing. I used to think these rich people only knew how to indulge in pleasure, but I didn’t. Expect there to be such a big-hearted one, it’s really surprising. 60 billion to buy the Yongle Encyclopedia and then donate. It, this series of moves is too shocking. No words needed, I love it. When the museum exhibits the Yongle Encyclopedia, I must go. See it, it’s a chance to bask in the glory of our national treasure. These rich people finally did something practical, unlike Wang. Sikong who only knows how to play with women. The news detailed the process of the donation event. It also mentioned the significant cultural research implications of the Yongle Encyclopedia but did not mention Wang Chen’s name, referring to him only as the mysterious billionaire. In the comments section, netizens were fervently discussing, liking, and sharing. Wang Chen looked at these comments, the corners of his mouth slightly lifting into a faint smile. Although he didn’t want people to know his name, seeing so many praises directed at him instantly brightened his mood. When the red light turned green, Wang Chen started the car. The Ferrari. La Ferrari, like a nimble red sprite, gracefully weaved through the bustling streets. Forty minutes later, he arrived outside the. Kafka Seaview No. 1 building. After sending a message to Long Lily, he said to Long Fong, you can head back first. Okay, boss. Upon hearing this, Long Fong opened the car door and got out. After a while, the entrance of Kafka Seaview No. 1 began to sway gently. Long Lily’s tall and voluptuous figure appeared at the door. Standing at 168 centimeters, her proportions were nearly perfect, and every move. exuded a unique charm. She wore a black professional suit. The collar of her white shirt was slightly open, tied with a delicate thin tie, perfectly showcasing her professionalism and competence as a secretary. The fitted jacket accentuated her slender waist. The form-fitting short skirt revealed her straight legs, wrapped in nude stockings. She had just received Wang Chen’s call, needing to confirm the office location for the company today. She also needed to help register the company. Long Lily had just contacted and organized the Relevant materials, not expecting Wang Chen to arrive downstairs so quickly. Holding the documents, she swayed her way to the car. Wang Chen had already gotten out and was smiling as he opened the car door for her. Thank you. Long Lily nodded slightly in gratitude. And then elegantly sat in the passenger seat. Sorry to trouble you for a trip. Wang Chen returned to the driver’s seat, started the car, and said to Long Lily while driving. It’s no trouble, serving you well is my duty. Long Lily replied respectfully. No need to be so polite. Wang Chen said lightly, we’ve known each other for so long, feel free to be more relaxed around me, I’m not that strict. Hmm. Long Lily replied shyly. Ever since that intimate encounter at the Tianmu Palace, Long Lily had moved her things to live below Wang Chen’s Tianmu Palace. Lying on the luxurious bed, images of Wang Chen’s handsome face and deep affectionate gaze kept flashing through her mind, along with the heart-racing feeling when they embraced. Her heart was filled with contradictions and struggles.On. One hand, she longed to develop a deeper relationship with Wang Chen and live the life of the wealthy. On the other hand, she was acutely aware that Wang Chen had multiple girlfriends and her actions would undoubtedly entangle her in a complex emotional web. In the following days, with Wang Chen out at sea, she found herself without any tasks as his personal steward. Long Lily initially thought she could take this time to sort out her thoughts and cast aside everything related to Wang Chen, returning to her previously peaceful life. However, when life suddenly became so free, she realized she couldn’t do it at all. Memories of her time with Wang Chen kept flooding her mind. Wang Chen was tall and handsome, with a striking figure and an aura filled with masculine charm, all of which played in her mind like a movie on repeat. Long Lily knew she was done, completely lost. Have you had lunch yet? Wang Chen glanced at Long Lily and asked when he saw her in a daze. Not yet. Long Lily snapped back to reality and replied. Alright, then let’s go have lunch first. After more than 10 minutes, Wang Chen parked the car in front of a three-story villa. Long Lily looked up in confusion. And realized. Wang Chen had already stopped the car. Let’s go. Wang Chen unbuckled his seatbelt, opened the car door, and got out. As soon as Long Lily stepped out of the car, she saw a villa with a historical charm, its weathered walls seemingly telling stories. Of the past. It stood in stark contrast to the modern high-rises around it, yet somehow felt harmoniously integrated. Linjiang Banquet? The dishes at this restaurant are quite unique, it’s said to be the pinnacle of Jiangsu and Jujang cuisine. I believe you’ll definitely like it, Wang Chen said naturally as he walked beside Long Lily, speaking softly. With that, he led her into the villa. Long. Lily nodded slightly and followed Wang Chen’s footsteps into Linjiang Banquet. Upon entering, a strong sense of nostalgia enveloped. Horror. The wooden floor gleamed with a warm luster, making a soft sound as she stepped on it. The walls were adorned with paintings depicting the charm of old Shanghai. In the paintings, women in kippeos moved gracefully while rickshaw pullers wove through the streets, silently narrating the city’s former splendor and stories. A faint scent of sandalwood mixed with the aroma of delicious food filled the air, creating a delightful atmosphere. Long Lily couldn’t help but be awed by the luxurious yet elegant environment inside. At that moment, a server in a black uniform approached with a warm smile, hurrying over. She slightly bowed and politely said, Welcome to Linjiang Banquet. May I ask if you have a reservation? No, Wang Chen replied casually. I’m very sorry, sir. Our restaurant currently has many guests, and you may need to wait a moment. I’ll check to see if there are any suitable seats available, the server said before. Quickly heading to the front desk, Long Lily nervously glanced around and then at Wang Chen, whispering, maybe we should change to another place without a reservation, we might have to wait a long time. However, Wang Chen remained calm, gently patting Long Lily’s shoulder and saying, don’t worry, it won’t be long. His tone carried a reassuring confidence that made Long Lily unconsciously relax. Before long, the server hurried back, still wearing a polite smile. Sir, very fortunately, we just had a riverside booth become available. Although it’s not a private room, the location is quite nice. What do you think? Alright, let’s take it, Wang Chen nodded. And said. The server led the way, and Wang Chen and Long Lily followed behind. As they walked, Long Lily continued to observe the restaurant’s interior. She noticed that every detail here exuded excellence. From the magnificent crystal chandeliers on the ceiling to the mirror-like polished marble tiles on the floor, everything revealed an air of luxury. Upon reaching the booth.As soon as Long Lily sat down, she could see the beautiful river view through the large floor-to-ceiling window. Boats were coming and going on the river, and the distant skyline looked particularly spectacular under the sunlight. Long Lily glanced at the elegant decor of the restaurant, and knew that the prices here were not cheap. Last time, the bank president had treated Wang Chen, and all the expenses were covered. by the company account. No matter how much was spent, she felt nothing. Now that Wang Chen was treating her to a meal alone, it felt different. Long Lily opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, she swallowed her words. Here is our menu, please take a look, the waiter said as he handed over the menu. Our restaurant specializes in Jiangsu and Jujang cuisine, with many signature dishes, such as braised eel, steamed salmon blue crab with marinated pork bones, and scallion beef tongue, all of which are very popular. Among our guests. Wang Chen took the menu, glanced at it briefly, and casually ordered a few signature dishes. He also made sure to ask Long Lily about her preferences, ordering a few lighter dishes that she might enjoy. After Wang Chen finished ordering, the waiter smiled and said, we have prepared complimentary appetizers and specialty tea for each table, which will be served shortly. If you need anything else, feel free to call me, she added, slightly bowing before turning to leave. Long Lily looked at the menu in her hands, feeling that the prices of the dishes were quite high. She raised her head to look at Wang Chen and said, isn’t this a bit extravagant? It’s nothing for me, Wang Chen replied lightly, shaking his head. His tone was calm and assured, as if the expenses here were merely trivial matters. Listening to him, Long Lily felt a complex ripple in her heart. Before she could continue to immerse herself in her thoughts, the waiter came over with the appetizers and tea. She placed the appetizers and tea on the table one by one. Introducing them, these are our appetizers, including refreshing pickled radish, sweet candied fruits, and our special pickled cucumbers. This is our specialty longjing tea, made from this year’s fresh leaves, with a refreshing taste that pairs perfectly with our dishes. Long Lily nodded slightly and thanks to the waiter, her gaze falling on the exquisite appetizers, she gently picked up a piece of pickled cucumber and put it in her mouth, the crisp texture instantly burst in her mouth, and the just-right sweet and sour flavor, stimulated her taste buds, making her involuntarily squint her eyes. Wangchen picked up his teacup and took a sip of Longjing tea, his gaze falling on Long Lily through the rising steam. Try this tea, it has a unique flavor, Wangchen said casually. Long Lily lifted her teacup and took a small sip. The fresh aroma of the tea spread in her mouth and the tip of her tongue touched the slightly sweet tea soup, prompting her to take a few more sips. It really is delicious, Long Lily said, slightly raising the corners of her mouth, revealing a faint smile. This was the first time she had smiled so relaxly today. Just then, soft music began to play in the restaurant. It turned out that the resident band had started performing featuring Louis Armstrong. The soothing melody flowed like a gentle stream, filling every corner and adding a touch of romance to the entire restaurant. The waiter steadily carried exquisite dishes on a delicate platter, placing them on the table one by one. The first dish to catch the eye was the meticulously prepared braised eel. The fish was cooked to a bright, enticing red, with rich sauce evenly coating every inch of the fish, and even before getting close, the thick. aroma wafted over. Next was the steamed salmon blue crab with marinated pork bones. The crab’s shell displayed a deep, glossy brown color, standing out prominently on the plate. The unique fragrance of the marinated pork bones blended with the fresh taste of the blue crab, creating an incredibly tempting complex flavor. Although Long Lily felt a psychological burden regarding the prices here, but, when the dishes were presented one after another, she couldn’t help but be drawn to the exquisite flavors and aromas of the food. Braised. Ecological Eel. Steamed salmon blue crab with marinated pork bones. Caviar drunken crab avocado tartare. Jasmine tea smoked. Cod. Black truffle three treasures. Matsutake mushroom tofu soup. Marinated river catfish lion’s head. The waiter. Methodically served each signature dish the presentation on the delicate plates resembling works of art. Caviar drunken crab avocado. Tartare, with tender drunken crab meat nestled in avocado, adorned with caviar, offering a rich layering of flavors. Jasmine tea smoked. Cod, the cod’s skin golden and crispy, the flesh tender, bursting with the fragrance of floral tea. Black truffle Three treasures, where black truffle melded with mushrooms, exuding a rich and deep aroma. Matsutake mushroom tofu soup, the broth presented a light, amber color, clear and translucent. Served in an exquisite white porcelain bowl, it resembled a piece of art. Upon closer inspection, the delicate strands of tofu floated in the soup, like a fine ink wash painting. The air was filled with the essence of culinary. delights, each dish radiating the unique charm of Jiangsu and Jujang cuisine. Long Lily instinctively wanted to take out her phone, to snap a picture, but she suddenly realized that Wang Chen was sitting across from her and immediately withdrew her phone. She was just a bank employee, usually dealing with money, occasionally helping clients book services at high-end venues, but she had never truly been the protagonist in these luxurious settings. Even when she had the chance to enter, it was always to host bank VIPs like Wang Chen. To avoid being rude or appearing timid in front of guests, she generally refrained from using her chopsticks, let alone taking out her phone to take pictures. In front of Wang Chen, Long Lily worried that her act of taking photos would seem too petty, disrupting the delicate atmosphere of the moment. Wang Chen noticed her little gesture, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly as he said, Don’t be so restrained, if you want to take pictures, go ahead. No need, that would be impolite. Long Lily quickly declined. I’m your personal secretary, being out in public will affect how others perceive you. Wang Chen chuckled lightly, aren’t we just eating? No one will pay attention to us. It’s not work time now, taking pictures is a hobby for you girls, I don’t mind if you do it freely. Hearing this, Long Lily felt a faint blush rise to her cheeks, a bit flustered and hesitant, she slowly took out her phone. After casually snapping a few pictures, she hurriedly put her phone away. It was not easy for her to completely let go of her reservations. In front of Wang Chen, she still couldn’t be as casual as when dining with colleagues or friends. Wang Chen saw this and didn’t press. Further. He picked up his chopsticks and served Long Lily a piece of jasmine tea smoked cod, saying, try this, it’s the house specialty. Thank you. Long Lily nodded slightly, softly expressing her gratitude before carefully picking up the piece of cod and placing it in her mouth. Her eyes lit up and she sincerely exclaimed, it’s really delicious, such a unique flavor. I’m glad you like it. Wang Chen smiled. Although Wang Chen had told Long Lily not to be so formal around him, she still instinctively prioritized him during meals. She rarely used her chopsticks for herself, mostly serving tea and water for Wang Chen. He didn’t overly insist on her doing. Otherwise, as time passed feelings would develop. He believed that over time, Long Lily would gradually relax. Most importantly, Long Lily’s attentive service made Wang Chen feel at ease and pleasant. Wang Chen inadvertently glanced at Long Lily and noticed her hair. Was a bit messy, a strand playfully hanging by the corner of her mouth. Don’t move. Wang Chen’s lips curled up, without hesitation. He reached out, tucking the stray hair behind Long Lily’s ear. Long Lily’s body instantly tensed as if struck by electricity. Her already fair face turning a deep shade of red, resembling a ripe apple. Her eyes widened in surprise and panic and she nearly dropped the chopsticks in her hand. She never expected Wang Chen to suddenly make such an intimate gesture. Your hair is messy, Wang Chen’s voice was low and magnetic. Um, thank you. Long Lily slightly lowered her head, her long eyelashes fluttering like too startled. Butterfly wings above her flushed cheeks. She dared not meet Wang Chen’s gaze, her heart racing wildly in her chest as if it were about to burst out. The meal ended amidst long lily shyness. Wang Chen raised his hand to check the time, it was about time to go. He signaled for the waiter to bring the bill. In a moment, a uniformed waiter hurried over, holding a card reader and the bill. The waiter slightly bent forward, gently placing the bill in front of Wang Chen, politely saying, Sir, here is your bill. Today, your total consumption is 8,890 yuan. We currently have a membership recharge promotion, if you recharge for this consumption, you can enjoy. A 20% discount and we will also give you a gift. No need, just settle the bill. Card, please, Wang Chen said. Alright, sir, please wait a moment. The waiter took the bank card with both hands, bending slightly again, and said, please enter your password. Wang Chen raised his hand to input the password. Payment successful. The waiter returned the bank card to Wang Chen with both hands, smiling as he said, Mr. Wang, thank you for your visit. We look forward to seeing you again. The two stood up and walked towards the restaurant entrance. Wang Chen led Long Lily to the car, raised his hand, and gently pressed the key. With a soft click, the car door slowly lifted like a butterfly spreading its wings. The unique way of opening the door instantly attracted the attention of those around. Wang Chen first sat in the driver’s seat and then Long Lily cautiously followed into the car. He gently pressed the accelerator. The LaFerrari shot out like a red lightning bolt. The car gradually merged into the bustling street, weaving through the heavy traffic. Beautiful cars and beautiful women have always been a romance exclusive to men. As they talked, the Ferrari LaFerrari arrived at their destination, stopping in front of a tall building. This was the center building of the Magic City. The center building is the tallest in Huagua and the third tallest in the world. Under the brilliant sunlight, the Magic City center building pierced the clouds. Its unique spiral design resembled a giant dragon poised to soar. The glass curtain wall of the building sparkled in the sunlight, like countless tiny diamonds embedded within. When Wang Chen got out of the car, the property manager he had arranged to meet. With Long Lily was already waiting outside. Hello, Mr. Wang, Miss Long, I am the property manager here, Lei Hui. You can call me Xiao. Lei. A middle-aged man in a black suit, around 40, quickly approached, slightly bowing as he spoke. He warmly extended his hands. To shake hands with Wang Chen. Wang Chen nodded and shook his hand, saying, Hello, Manager Lei. Lei Hui smiled in response, Mr. Wang. You are too polite, just call me Shaolay, it’s easier. Please follow me, I will take you to see the office area of our center. Building. With that, he turned and led the way, and the three entered the building together. The spacious and bright lobby immediately came into view. The high ceiling was magnificent, with a huge crystal chandelier radiating dazzling light, reflecting off the mirror-like marble floor. Wang Chen nodded in praise, this lobby is nicely decorated. Mr. Wang, your taste is exceptional. The design. Of this lobby was done by an internationally renowned design team, incorporating various cutting-edge design concepts, all to leave a deep impression on everyone who enters the building, Lei Hui responded, nodding repeatedly, Long Lily looked around while saying, not only is the design good, but the maintenance is also very well done, the floors and crystal chandeliers are spotless. After hearing this, Lei Hui showed a proud expression on his face, the companies operating here are all world-renowned, such as JPMorgan Chase and DeShang, law firm. To provide everyone with the highest quality office environment, we have assembled an experienced property maintenance team. They conduct comprehensive cleaning and maintenance of the entire building every day, ensuring that the building remains in optimal condition 24 hours a day. Arriving at the elevator, Manager Lei pressed the button. Ding! The elevator opened. Manager Lei stood outside the door, and after Wang Chen and Long Lily entered, he walked in. Then he said to Wang Chen, Mr. Wang, shall we go to the higher floors first? Sure. Wang Chen had no objections. The reputation of the Magic City Center building is known overseas. Claimed to be the tallest building in China and he had heard of it. Since they were going to rent an office in the center building, it would be better to rent a higher floor, being in the clouds, overlooking the entire Magic City. He believed that working here would surely lift one’s spirits. Alright. Manager Lei pressed the button for the 118th floor and the elevator rapidly ascended. The elevator. began to rise quickly, yet it was so smooth that one could hardly feel the movement and it was very quiet. After more than 30 seconds, the elevator came to a steady stop and the doors slowly opened. A rush of fresh air greeted them, carrying the unique coolness and clarity of over 500 meters above ground. Long Lily involuntarily took a deep breath, feeling invigorated. Mr. Wang, thank you for your support of our center building, let me introduce it to you. Manager Long stood outside the elevator, smiling at Wang Chen. Our center building is located in the Lugiazwi Financial Center of the Magic City, which is the core hub of the financial sector in the entire Magic City and even the country. Countless banks, securities firms, and multinational corporate headquarters are gathered around here. Here, you can capture the most cutting-edge financial information and business dynamics in real-time, and engage in close communication and cooperation with top talents and companies in the industry. This unique geographical advantage is hard to match elsewhere. At the same time, our center building is not only the tallest among the three iconic buildings in the Magic City, but it is also the tallest in China and the second tallest in the world, with a total height of 632 meters and a structural height of 580 meters. This height is truly like standing on the clouds, with everything in sight at your feet. As manager Long spoke, he entered a password to open the glass door, leading Wang Chan and Long Lily into the office building. Take a look at the decoration and facilities of our office building, which are also of top -notch quality. Various facilities are fully equipped, with the front desk, providing daily reception services as well as high-end multifunctional meeting rooms, tea rooms, entertainment rooms, lounges and smoking rooms, etc. Working here, you can gaze over the entire magic city and enjoy the stunning scenery. Manager Lei smiled, his gaze. Shifting back and forth between Wang Chan and Long Lily, Wang Chan slowly walked to the window, hands clasped behind his back. As far as the eye could see, the walls were almost entirely made of glass curtain walls. Arriving at the glass curtain wall, the outside was shrouded in mist, as if standing on the clouds. Outside the window, sunlight spilled over the towering buildings, reflecting dazzling light, weaving a magnificent tapestry of a bustling metropolis. The Huangpu River shimmered, with boats weaving in and out beneath the bridges connecting the two banks. This scene made him nod slightly, secretly admiring it in his heart. Working here was indeed a delightful experience. Manager Lei had been observing Wang Chen’s movements and seeing Wang Chen’s interest, a more enthusiastic smile. immediately appeared on his face. He continued, the transportation here is also very convenient, our center building connects to metro, line 2 on the second basement level, as well as the under construction line 14. Once line 14 is open, commuting will be much more convenient. Employees can easily reach various parts of the city, whether for commuting or business travel. Moreover, the building is equipped with ample parking spaces, so you don’t have to worry about parking difficulties at all. Wang Chan listened with great interest, nodding slightly in agreement. Why hasn’t this floor been rented out? Wang Chen asked curiously. Given the prime location of the central building and its complete facilities, it shouldn’t be entirely vacant. I found out before I came here, the previous company moved. Out recently due to poor management and it hasn’t been rented out yet, Long Lily replied. Miss Long is quite well informed. Manager. Lei was slightly taken aback, then a polite yet awkward smile appeared on his face as he said, indeed, as you mentioned, the. Previous company had some financial issues and just completed the lease termination procedures last week. As he spoke, he spread his hands in a gesture of helplessness and continued, Actually, this is a rare opportunity for Mr. Wang. This floor has just become available, and no other potential tenants have intervened yet, so you too can choose first and plan the office space according to your preferences. What is the area of this floor? Wang Chen asked Manager Lei. Mr. Wang, this floor has an area of 2,600 square meters. Wang Chen nodded, a 2,600 square meter office would be barely sufficient for a startup. Once the company grows and there are more employees, they could buy a larger building. What is the rent? Wang Chen asked casually. As for the rent, since you are a VIP of ICBC, we will definitely offer you the best price, manager Lei said with a perfectly timed smile. Under normal circumstances, the rent for. This floor is around 600 yuan per square meter per month, which totals 18,720,000 for a year. The property management fee is 50 yuan per square meter per month, which amounts to 1,560,000 for a year. If you can commit to the entire floor, we can offer you a discount of 15% off, bringing the annual rent down to 15,900,000, and the property fee for the first year will only be 1,200,000. This is already the highest discount our company can offer, manager Lei smiled and said. I wonder if Mr. Wang has any objections to this price? Wangchen pondered for a moment without immediately responding, his gaze slowly sweeping across the empty office floor. The space was a bit small. With the annual rent plus property fees totaling over 17 million, it was still quite reasonable. After all, this was one of the top buildings in the magic city. Whether it was the location, the surrounding environment, or the complete facilities and attentive property services, everything was impeccable. Without overthinking, Wangchen said, I’ll take the whole floor, renting it for a year. Alright, Mr. Wang, I’ll prepare the contract for you right away, manager Lei said, a hint of joy appearing on his face, then. Respectfully added, please wait a moment, I’ll take you to the lounge downstairs for a brief rest. No need, just go prepare the contract. I’ll stand here for a bit, Wang Chen replied. Okay, please wait, I’ll be back soon, manager Lei said, naturally having no objections, and quickly turned to head towards the elevator. How’s the place I picked? Is it okay? Long Lily asked Wang Chen. Wang. Chen’s lips curled slightly as he said, it’s indeed quite good. Looks like I’ll have to trouble you more in the future, Long Lily. Said, her heart sweet as honey upon hearing Wang Chen’s praise, though she feigned modesty on the surface, saying, it’s what I should. Do. As long as I can help the company, help you, I’m willing to do anything. Wang Chen smiled and nodded, their gazes inadvertently. Meeting Da Ai in that moment, the air seemed to freeze. At that time, manager Lei walked over with the lease contract in hand. He wore a. Broad smile and respectfully stood in front of Wang Chen, saying, Mr. Wang, here is the lease contract for your review. Wang Chen. Blanced at manager Lei and reached out to take the contract. He only gave it a cursory look before handing it to Long Lily. Long Lily. Turned and sat on a stool, carefully examining the terms of the contract. After a moment, she nodded at Wang Chen. Wang Chen didn’t pay much attention. Generally, lease contracts like this are quite simple, and it’s hard to pull any tricks. Wang Chen also figured that. Manager Lei didn’t have the guts to try anything in front of him, a VIP of the industrial and commercial bank, so he wasn’t worried at all. Wang Chen took the neutral pan handed to him by Manager Lei and signed his name on each lease contract, then pressed his thumbprint. Under Manager Lei’s guidance, the two of them went to the company’s finance office. Please enter your password. Wang Chen took out his bank card and entered the password. 17 million paid in full at once. Ding! The system detected that the host spent. 17,100,000, double cashback 34,200,000. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 17,10 system points. As Wang Chen successfully made the payment, manager Lei handed over the contract along with the keys and password to the company gate to Wang Chen. Mr. Wang, welcome to the Magic City Center building. Our property team will provide you with comprehensive, high-quality service 24 hours a day. Manager Lei’s face beamed with a warm smile, and he continued, you can have your company moving now. Okay. Wang Chen nodded. Long. Lily, with keen insight, took everything over. The two, under manager Lei’s enthusiastic send-off, arrived at the parking lot. Let’s. Go, get in the car. Alright. Wang Chen opened the door of the LaFerrari and got in. Long Lily also took the contract and sat in the passenger seat, fastening her seat belt. Wang Chen gently pressed the accelerator. The LaFerrari smoothly drove out of the center. Building. After a while, Wang Chen parked the car at the parking area of the Luji Azui Riverside Center. He took Long Lily to a Starbucks and sat down. After casually ordering two cups of coffee, Wang Chen said to Long Lily, now that the office is rented, I’ll need your help to register a company next. Not a problem, I’ll take care of it for you shortly. Long Lily replied seriously, I will help you. Register the company under the industrial and commercial bank’s name, which will take about three days. After that, the business license and tax registration, um, the whole process should be completed in about a week. No rush, I’m not in a hurry, just handle it as you see fit. Wang Chen smiled. So, what name are you planning to give the company? Long Lily looked at Wang Chen with anticipation. Wang Chen slightly tilted his head, his gaze passing through the glass curtain wall of Starbucks, looking out at the shimmering Huangpu. River, lost in brief thought. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, a confident smile forming at the corners of his mouth as he slowly said, let’s call it Whale Swallow Capital Investment Company, LTD. Whale Swallow Capital Investment Company, LTD? Long Lily was a bit curious about such a name. The name whale swallow is quite imposing. However, it seems to carry a sense of fierce predation. This is in stark contrast to the refined style of investment companies she had in mind. Wang Chen nodded slightly, a faint smile on his lips. Whales, although they are called fish, they are actually mammals. Moreover, they are the largest animals currently existing on earth, reigning in the ocean like an invincible overlord. Since he was venturing into venture capital, Wang Chen naturally wouldn’t settle for mediocrity. The world of capital is a war without smoke, filled with bloodshed and cruelty. In this ruthless capital market, one needs the momentum of a whale. Bold and fearless, swallowing the world. Traditional investment styles may achieve modest success, in a stable market environment. But now the world is changing rapidly, and in this unprecedented great transformation of a century, clinging to tradition will only lead to ruthless elimination. Wang Chen’s gaze was like a torch fixed intently on the outside. His previous life, after 2018, the investment market was like a lake disturbed by a giant stone, never to return to calm. Global Trade Protectionism was on the rise, with many countries calling for anti-globalization trade. This led to intensified trade frictions and a sharp increase in uncertainty regarding global economic growth. The growth space in traditional investment sectors was continuously compressed. Those investment companies relying on traditional industries and adhering to conservative strategies struggled to survive amid. the market’s violent fluctuations, with many suffering heavy losses. However, destruction often heralds rebirth. The original financial market had been controlled by giants for hundreds of years. Only through turmoil and chaos could Wang Chen have the opportunity to swallow these behemoths whole. To put it more broadly, only in a chaotic and turbulent world could Hua Gua have the chance to return to the pinnacle of the world. This is both a challenge and an opportunity of the times. The beautiful country has been at the top of the world for too long, so long that it has developed problems of its own without realizing it. Politically, the two-party conflict is. Incessant, with policies changing from day to day. Economically, the gap between the rich and the poor continues to widen, with severe. Hollowing out of industries and financial bubbles piling up like mountains. Culturally, the values once exported are gradually revealing. Their hypocritical side under the impact of multiculturalism, party strife, ethnic conflicts, militarism, and wealth disparity. There is nothing new under the sun. The current beautiful country has gathered many of the typical problems of dynasties throughout. Hua Gua’s history, transitioning from prosperity to decline. However, these issues are a deep-rooted dilemma for the beautiful country. One that even Washington cannot save, it can only watch as it falls into the abyss. For Hua Gua, however, this is a once-in-a-century opportunity. Hundreds of years ago, the Ming dynasty collapsed and disintegrated under the iron hooves of Li Zicheng Shun army, ultimately, allowing foreign tribes to reap the benefits. A nomadic tribal group far behind the central plains occupied the land of China. They did not carry forward the thousands of years of heritage of the Chinese nation, nor did they reckon with the thousands of years of Chinese civilization to create a new civilizational system. Instead, the system became even more closed and backward than before. The tide of the times rolled forward while we were ruthlessly left behind, stumbling forward in solitude. But a starving camel is still bigger than a horse, after all, there is a cultural accumulation of thousands of years and a hint of rosy clouds appeared during the prosperous era of Kangxi and Qianlong. However, when the evening blow disappeared, it was our nation that faced endless darkness. The national fortune of Hua Xia had fallen to its historical low in the hands of foreign tribes. Meanwhile, the West was experiencing the last darkness before dawn as the people began to gradually awaken and challenge the divine authority, pressing down on them. Dante’s divine comedy dared to leave a place for the Pope in hell. Da Vinci even had the audacity to make an ordinary rural housewife there. Subject of this painting, pulling angels and the Virgin Mary from the distant heavens to the human realm, creating the Mona Lisa’s smile. How incredible! On this land, since ancient times, only angels and the Virgin Mary could be painted, yet da Vinci now bestowed this sacred status upon a rural woman. Westerners began to break free from the shackles of divine authority, starting to shout for human dignity and freedom. The Renaissance, the Enlightenment, the Reformation, this was like two intersecting lines of national fortune. Thereafter, the West rapidly rose in the wave of the Industrial Revolution, ushering in an era of global colonial expansion. Meanwhile, Hua Gua struggled painfully under the twilight of feudal rule and the invasions of great powers. In the 18th century, Hua Gua was under the rule of the Qing dynasty, behind the seemingly prosperous Kangxi and Shanlong era, dark currents were surging, and difficulties were numerous. In terms of the political system, feudal monarchical autocracy reached its peak, with imperial power highly centralized. and the bureaucratic system bloated and corrupt.I in the 19th century, the plight of Hua Gua further intensified, plunging into the abyss of a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. Under the coercive force of Western powers, Hua Gua was compelled to sign a series of unequal treaties. These treaties not only forced Hua Gua to cede vast territories, with places like Hong Kong and Macau being successively occupied by foreign powers, but also required the payment of enormous reparations, leading the national finances to the brink of collapse, and delivering a devastating blow to the economy. On a social level, due to the destruction of war, the heavy burden of reparations, and the frequent occurrence of natural disasters, the lives of the common people were unbearable. In the cultural realm, Western culture aggressively invaded, significantly impacting traditional Confucian culture. Churches, schools, and hospitals were established in large numbers across Huagua, and Western values and lifestyles gradually permeated the land of Huaxia. Many young people began to blindly pursue Western culture, casting doubt on and rejecting their own traditional culture. National cultural confidence suffered a severe blow. Now, history seems to have once again reached a critical turning point. The tides of history are always fluctuating. There are no eternal peaks, nor are there eternal valleys. Especially for the post-90s and post-00s generations in Hua Gua, there is a heartfelt sense of identity with their country and nation. They stand under a grand historical coordinate, shouldering a special historical mission. They are the generation destined to uplift the nation’s fortunes. Today, most of them are in their teens and 20s. full of vigor and hope. In ten or twenty years, when history converges and divides again, they will step into the golden period of their lives, in their prime, full of talent and vitality. At this time, they will have taken over the roles of their predecessors, shining in their workplaces. We are well-versed in both ancient and modern knowledge, integrating Eastern and Western cultures, not feudal, not arrogant, not conceited. We take history as a mirror, drawing wisdom and strength from the thousands of years of Hua Xia’s rich history. We have learned from what Europe and America have and we possess a foundation and culture of 5,000 years combined with the creativity of our nation. We have absorbed all beneficial things and we have tried and witnessed the bad. We will integrate all advantages and lay a foundation on the essence of 5 ,000 years of civilization. Accumulate thickly and release thinly. Let the Chinese nation create a new civilization that is far superior to the so-called civilized forms. Represented by Europe and America today, history will be created by our generation. This is the mission. I accidentally digressed but upon reflection, this is quite good. Maslow’s hierarchy of needs categorizes human needs from low to high into five levels, with self-actualization being the highest need. The pursuit of realizing one’s abilities or potential to unleash one’s full potential is a kind of need to become the person one aspires to be. I believe that faith and mission are the core driving forces for a person to continuously seek and realize their self-worth throughout their life. If one can find their faith and mission, then this. Life will not be in vain, swallowing. Long Lily nodded thoughtfully and then asked, what is the registered capital? Of the company? Wang Chen directly extended a finger. 100 million? Long Lily nodded and said, 100 million in. Registered capital seems a bit much, right? Actually, a few tens of millions would be enough. Wang Chen shook his head and smiled. Faintly. 10 million? That would be enough too. No Wang Chen shrugged and said, it’s not 10 million, nor 100 million, but. 1 billion Hua Xia coins. And it’s fully paid. 1 billion. Long Lily couldn’t help but exclaim, and it’s fully paid. Company. Registered capital is generally divided into paid-in and subscribed systems. In the subscribed system, shareholders only promise to pay the corresponding amount within a certain period. They do not directly transfer the money into the company’s public account.as long. As the company exists, when to transfer this sum of money into the company is entirely up to the shareholders. Many companies exaggerate their capital during registration to appear more powerful. A registered capital of 10 million might mean that the company’s account barely holds a million. However, the paid-in capital system is entirely different. When registering a company, shareholders must transfer this amount in one go into the company’s public account. This means that the enterprise must have solid financial strength to complete the registration. Although companies with low paid-in capital cannot be said to lack strength, those with high paid-in capital are certainly robust. In various large project bids, the amount of paid-in capital often becomes a key factor in whether a company can compete. Long Lily, having worked in the bank for many years, has seen many wealthy individuals. She has also helped numerous bosses, registered companies, generally considering those with a few hundred million in paid-in capital to be substantial. Wang Chan’s sudden declaration of 100 billion in paid-in capital was simply unheard of, it could no longer be described as merely strong. Long Lily stood there, stunned, and it took her a while to regain her voice. Her eyes were filled with shock and confusion as she murmured, Wang, Chen, you, are you joking? This is not a small amount, 100 billion in paid-in capital. You need to think this through. Wang Chen shook his head, his expression serious, offering no further explanation. He squinted slightly, gazing into the distance. The registered capital of a company can be checked in many ways, paid -in and subscribed capital are easily verifiable. When whale capital was just established, few people knew about it. Naturally, no one would choose to trust a newly established company to compete for business. But Wang Chen’s direct declaration of 100 billion changed everything. A newly established company capable of putting 100 billion in paid-in capital into its account demonstrates immense strength. Even if it’s just a newly formed company, no one would underestimate its power. Since Wang Chen was prepared to fight in the capital market, he would naturally be well-equipped and wouldn’t be stingy with funds. Moreover, with the system at his disposal, he could spend that money endlessly. Wang Chen felt confident. In his heart. Long Lily’s heart raced, and after a while, she let out a long breath, her face filled with shock and daze. 100. Billion. This was an astronomical figure she hadn’t even dared to imagine. Just thinking about it made her feel dizzy. I understand. Now, Long Lily replied. Next, I will expedite the relevant processes. I will need you to transfer the money into the account in advance, and after the company is registered, I will report back to you. Alright, Wang Chen said lightly. He then told Long Lily. I’ll trouble you these next few days. Please work a bit harder these days and find someone to redecorate the office. The computers, desks, and chairs should all be the best, according to the highest specifications. Also, help me find a reliable headhunting company. To select a few management and financial talents, the more professional, the better. The company hasn’t even been registered yet, and the office is completely empty. Wang Chen is currently just a loan commander. Besides the bank manager Long Lily, he has no one to command, let alone starting a business. Wang Chin cannot handle everything himself in the company, so he naturally needs to recruit a few top talents to help him manage it. Moreover, as an investment company, he only needs to be sure about which companies to invest in. The specifics of how to operate and negotiate business are foreign to him. As the company’s owner, Wang Chin doesn’t need to understand these things, he just needs to know how to use people wisely. A boss who won’t delegate authority will exhaust themselves without achieving results. History serves as a lesson. Lee Shimon was adept at recognizing the strengths of his ministers. Fang Shenling was meticulous and good at planning. Du Ru Huai was decisive and skilled in making decisions. The two worked hand in hand, complimenting each other. Together, they created the prosperous era of Xinhuan, achieving a timeless tale, with the eye of truth present. Wang Chen was not afraid of anyone trying to deceive right under his nose. This is the way of the king. No problem, Long Lily nodded in response. She was not surprised by Wang Chen’s request. This was one of the privileges belonging to the bank’s VIPs. As Wang Chen’s private banker, Such matters fell well within her responsibilities. Meeting all of the client’s needs was her duty. When it came to office renovations and recruiting talent, these tasks were truly beneath Long Lily’s capabilities. Long Lily continued to ask, do you have any specific requirements for the talent you want to recruit? Hmm, there are indeed some requirements, Wangchen pondered for a moment. Before saying, first, there are no restrictions on gender, as long as they have the ability, being younger is preferable. It would. be best to recruit some people who have worked in large companies, especially in finance, and they should have impressive achievements. All right, I’ll note down your requirements. I’ll contact the headhunting company we have worked with at ICBC shortly. I’ll help. You screen candidates first, and then I’ll send you the list. You can interview them specifically, and if you’re not satisfied, we can replace them. Long Lily noted down Wang Chen’s requests and then said, additionally, considering the company’s future development, there may be some legal and financial issues involved. Do you think we need to recruit some related talent? Wang Chen nodded slightly and. Said, sure, I’ll leave that to you. You’re too polite, this is all part of my duties. Serving you is what I should do, Long Lily. Replied with a smile. Alright, let’s go. Wang Chen stood up, glanced at his Patek Philippe on his wrist, and said to Long Lily. Okay. Long Lily stood up as well. Wang Chen walked to the cashier, scanned the QR code to pay. Two iced Americanos cost a total of 60. Yuan. The two walked out of Starbucks side by side. Wang Chen approached his car, pressed the key to unlock it, opened the door, and sat in the driver’s seat. Long Lily also walked around to the other side and elegantly sat in the passenger seat. Wang Chen fastened his seatbelt, pressed the button to start the engine, and the LaFerrari let out a deep and powerful roar. Then, with the press of the accelerator, the car shot out like an arrow, weaving through the streets of the Magic City. Along the way, tall buildings rapidly receded. Behind them. Wang Chin drove the LaFerrari, skillfully steering with one hand, and casually asked, I haven’t asked you in a while, you’re from Jincheng too, right? No, I’m from Leshan, Long Lily waved her hand and smiled. Leshan is a great place. Speaking of which, it’s because of me that you were transferred to work in the Magic City. I wonder if you’ve been getting used to it during this time. Long Lily gently waved her hand and smiled, although the pace here is fast, everything is very convenient, and I haven’t had any issues adjusting to life here. I actually quite like it. Moreover, I only serve you now, so most of the time I have quite a bit of free time. It’s just that the food doesn’t quite suit my taste. As Long Lily said this, a hint of nostalgia for her hometowns. Cuisine and a touch of embarrassment flickered in her eyes, as if she felt a bit awkward for bringing up this minor inconvenience. Different places nurture different people, it’s perfectly normal for tastes to vary, Wang Chen replied, slightly tilting his head to glance at her, a gentle smile forming at the corner of his mouth. I know a few good Sichuan restaurants that are quite authentic. Once things settle down, I’ll treat you to try them and satisfy your cravings. Hehe, thank you, boss, Long Lily giggled. Wang Chen. Chuckled, his tone relaxed, don’t be so formal. You’ve put in a lot of effort helping me with the company’s preparations, a meal is. Nothing. By the way, you just mentioned that the food doesn’t suit your taste. Are there a lot of snacks and delicacies and less Han? As. Soon as Long Lily heard this, her eyes sparkled with excitement and she said enthusiastically, oh, there are so many. It’s just like. My favorite dishes, foot-stretched beef, boiled chicken, kakaur, and caving, so delicious, especially kakaur. Long Lily squinted. Her eyes, reminiscing about the flavors, her face filled with happiness, it’s made with sweet and sour shredded radish, stuffed into, crispy tofu puffs. When you take a bite, you first taste the crunch of the tofu puff, followed by the crispness and sweetness of, the radish. It’s explosively delicious, I can never stop eating it. Long Lily’s excitement was palpable as she talked about snacks, her words flowing like a rapid-fire barrage. But it’s no wonder. Lesson, as a renowned food and tourism city, has its unique culture, recognized by the world to some extent. In recent years, with the rapid development of the internet and social media, Lesson’s beautiful, scenery and tempting cuisine have been widely spread globally through various short video platforms and social apps. More and more. International friends come to Lesson to experience its unique food culture firsthand, especially Mountame and the Lesson giant Buddha, which enjoy high recognition and influence internationally. Maotamei, as one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China, is renowned for its unique features of majestic, beautiful, strange, perilous, and secluded. The Lhessan giant Buddha, standing at a height of 71 meters, is the largest stone-carved Mithraya Buddha statue in the world. Its grand and spectacular posture attracts countless tourists to admire it. Sounds good. Next time I return to Sichuan, I guess I’ll have to trouble you, Wang Chen nodded and smiled. Oh, please don’t say that. I’m thrilled to introduce you to my hometown. Long Lily quickly waved her hand, her face beaming with a warm. Smile. When you come to Lesson, I’ll make sure to arrange the itinerary clearly. On the first day, we’ll head straight to the Lesson. Giant Buddha, and then we’ll visit the nearby Lingyun Temple to burn incense and pray for peace and smoothness. Wang Chen nodded. Slightly, curiosity in his eyes as he asked, what about the second day? On the second day, we’ll go to Mount Amei. Long Lily said. Enthusiastically, we can choose to hike up the mountain, slowly appreciating the unique scenery of Mount Amei and its Taoist and Buddhist. Culture. Along the way, we can see dense rainforests, encounter cute and mischievous little monkeys, and enjoy the breathtaking sunrise over the sea of clouds from the golden summit. The view is simply stunning. Those must be the adorable Amé monkeys. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and said half -jokingly. Long Lily was taken aback for a moment then quickly reacted, unable to hold back a laugh, her face radiating a brilliant smile. She gently patted Wang Chen’s shoulder and playfully scolded, actually, these little monkeys are quite cute, aside from being a bit mischievous and loving to snatch things. As long as you don’t provoke them, they’re mostly very. Adorable, fluffy, with big round eyes. Wang Chen smiled slightly. He nodded in agreement with Long Lily’s words, saying, then it. Seems I need to prepare in advance for being robbed. I better not be caught off guard by these cute little fellows. Long Lily covered. Her mouth and laughed again, waving her hand, it’s not that exaggerated. As long as you hide your food well, they won’t be able to. Do anything to you? Besides, outsmarting them is also a big feature of Mount Amei. Ha ha ha. Actually, I’m quite worried about you being transferred to the Magic City. Leaving the familiar environment of your hometown, will you feel lonely here all by yourself? Not. At all. Long Lily said, Actually, coming to the Magic City is quite good. Compared to my colleagues in Jinchang, my treatment and position have both improved. I owe it all to you. If it weren’t for you, I might have taken a long time to get a promotion. Especially. Coming to a big city like the Magic City, ordinary people might never have the chance to come here. It’s because of you that I have. this opportunity then you should thank me wang chen smiled yeah long lily nodded her eyes filled with gratitude as she said if it weren’t for you i wouldn’t know when i could come to the magic city to see the world can i make a request what request just keep it like this in front of me from now on we’ve known each other for a while and i believe you know i’m not that serious of a person it’s better for us to interact as friends wang chen said controlling the steering wheel with one hand smiling isn’t that a bit inappropriate long lily hesitated After all, Wang Chen was her client, and her every word in action represented the industrial and commercial bank and Wang Chen’s reputation. If they interacted like friends, Long Lily worried it might lead to losing her sense of propriety, thus affecting her work. Wang Chen turned to look at Long Lily and said, it’s fine, I don’t mind. What do you care about? Besides, since we’ll be seeing each other more often, I don’t want you to be overly cautious in front of me because of your status. That would be so boring. Wang Chen paused and continued, I believe with your professional qualities, you know how to behave in different situations. Being friends doesn’t mean work will suffer. Well, as long as you don’t mind, Long Lily said, hesitantly after hearing Wang Chen’s words. Upon hearing Long Lily agree, a smile appeared on Wang Chen’s face. In the evening, the car drove back to the Tianmu Palace, smoothly parking in the underground garage of his mansion. He and Long Lily got out of the car together and walked into the exclusive elevator. The elevator slowly ascended, the numbers flickering, and soon arrived at the 44th floor. The elevator door opened with a ding, just as Long Lily was about to step out. Do you want to come up and sit for a bit? Wang. Chen suddenly said, I still don’t quite understand the process of registering a company, can you explain it to me again? Long Lily. Paused. After a brief hesitation, she said somewhat flustered, then, then I’ll explain it to you again. As soon as the words left. Her mouth, Long Lily regretted it, secretly blaming herself for agreeing. But now that it was said, she could only grit her teeth and follow Wang Chen. Upon reaching the top floor, Wang Chen stepped out of the elevator first, leading Long Lily to his door. Hello, boss. The bodyguard slightly bowed. Emem. Wang Chen nodded. Then, the bodyguard stepped forward to input the password, opening the heavy door. Wang Chen turned to Long Lily and said, Please, come in. Once inside, Long Lily instinctively lightened her steps, afraid of dirtying the spotless floor. Zhang Rou had long been arranged by Wang Chen to stay at Tang Changipin, otherwise he wouldn’t have brought Long Lily up with him. Make yourself at home, don’t be polite, Wang Chen said as he walked toward the wine cabinet. What would you? Like to drink? Red wine, beer, juice, or coffee? Long Lily stood still, her hands tightly clenched together, her eyes filled with awkwardness and unease. Ah. Hearing Wang Chen’s question, her throat felt like it was choked by something, and it took her a while. To respond, anything, anything is fine, you don’t have to go through the trouble. Seeing her nervous demeanor, Wang Chen couldn’t help but chuckle, don’t be so formal, coming to my house is like being at your own home. Saying this, he took out a bottle of red wine and poured two glasses. He handed one to Long Lily and sat down on the sofa with his glass. Long Lily took the red wine, carefully, sitting on the edge of the sofa. Her fingers gently rubbed the cup’s wall, her gaze wandering around the room but not daring to linger. Too long. After a moment, Long Lily said somewhat awkwardly, you are a VIP of our bank and I need to ensure you understand the. Process of registering a company. Actually, registering a company mainly involves several major steps. First, you need to determine the company name, which is crucial. It must comply with relevant regulations and cannot be the same as an existing company. It should also reflect the business direction or corporate culture of the company. It’s best to prepare several backup names in case the verification fails. Long Lily tried hard to make her tone sound professional and calm, attempting to ease her inner tension with work-related topics. However, her voice grew increasingly frantic. Wang Chen nodded slightly, putting on a serious listening expression, lifted his. Wine Blast took a sip and said, I see, that sounds quite troublesome. Long Lily took a deep breath and continued to explain. Wang Chen listened with great interest, occasionally asking questions. Finally, he downed the red wine in his glass and said, I’m going to take a shower first. You sit here for a while and we’ll talk after I’m done. Long Lily had been to Tianmu Palace before and was relatively familiar with the place. Wang Chen wasn’t worried that she would feel awkward alone, he even told her the password to the main entrance of Tianmu palace. This was enough to prove Wang Chen’s trust in her. This was already the same treatment he afforded to women. Like Zhang Rou. Actually, I’ve covered most of the company registration process and I’ve made the important points clear to you. It’s getting late, so, I think I’ll head back now. Get some rest early. Long Lily’s heart suddenly tightened at his words. understood that if she continued to stay here, in this private space, alone with a man, it was extremely dangerous. After she finished, saying she wanted to leave, her eyes were fixed on Wang Chen, both hoping he would ask her to stay and wishing he would let her go, her heart a mix of emotions. She bit her lower lip slightly, her fingers nervously tugging at the hem of her clothes, trying to calm her inner turmoil. Why don’t you rest here tonight? I’ll show you the telescope on the terrace, they say you can see stars from tens of light years away. Wang Chen glanced at Long Lily, knowing she just wanted a way out. He continued, besides, you are the private banker of my bank and I believe you are quite professional in financial matters. I would like to consult you about something later. Wang Chen’s words made Long Lily’s heart tremble, a blush appearing on her face, her inner conflict deepening. She was afraid that staying would lead to something she couldn’t handle. Yet his invitation made her feel a hint of secret delight. But in the end, she nodded and sat back down on the sofa. Seeing this, Wang Chen went to the master bedroom to get a set of pajamas and walked into the shower. As the Sound of water splashing came from the shower, Long Lily sat alone on the sofa, the air around her seeming to thicken. She instinctively picked up the wine glass from the coffee table and drank it all in one go, trying to calm herself with the help of alcohol. The cold liquid slid down her throat but failed to dispel the heat in her heart. To distract herself, she stood up, walked to the window, and pulled back the curtains, gazing at the dazzling night view of the magical city outside. Just as she was lost in thought, the sound of water from the shower suddenly stopped. She turned around nervously, her eyes fixed on the shower door. Wang Chen emerged rapt. In a towel, droplets of water still clinging to his hair, sliding down his cheeks and dripping onto his solid chest. Wang Chen was slightly taken aback when he saw Long Lily standing by the window. While drying his hair, he said to her, I’m done showering, you should go wash up too. Ah. Long Lily was instantly stunned, her face turning bright red. She bit her lip, her hands tangled together, her heart racing even more. Her mind went blank. After a moment, Long Lily stammered but aren’t we supposed to look at the stars? Why do I have to shower too? You’ve been running around with me all day, I believe you’re tired too. Go take a bath to relieve your fatigue. Then let’s go to the terrace where we can sip wine, gaze at the stars and talk about the company’s matters, Wang. Chen raised an eyebrow and smiled. Alright. Long Lily hesitated as she walked towards the shower room. She secretly sniffed her own scent and indeed detected a hint of sweat. Although she had spent most of the day in air-conditioned rooms or cars, sweating was. inevitable in the sweltering summer of the Magic City. Moreover, wearing sheer stockings and high heels all day had left her not only exhausted but also somewhat uncomfortable. If she could take a hot bath right now, it would be incredibly soothing. Long Lily thought to herself, her steps unconsciously quickening. Entering the shower room, she gently closed the glass door, as if shutting out the ambiguous and unsettling atmosphere from the outside. Long Lily lightly hung her bathrobe on a hook nearby, her gaze sweeping over the array of bathing products before her. Finally, she chose a bottle of rose-scented shower gel. Warm water cascaded down from the overhead shower, fine droplets hitting her skin, tingling and pleasant. She tilted her head back slightly, closed her eyes, and let the water wash. Over her. Yet, images of Wang Chen wrapped in a towel, his solid chest involuntarily surfaced in her mind, causing her heart to race. Uncontrollably. What’s wrong with me? Long Lily murmured softly, he’s my client, my boss. At that moment, Wang Chen was lounging. on the living room sofa, turning on the TV and casually switching to CCTV1. The news report came through the state administration of taxation has imposed penalties on celebrity Fan Bingbing for tax evasion. Fan Bingbing and the company for which she serves as the legal representative are required to pay back taxes of $255 million, along with a late fee of $33 million. Fan Bingbing’s agent has been criminally detained by the public security authorities for destroying accounting documents and books. Damn, such a beautiful star ends. Up like this, a hint of regret flashed across Wang Chen’s face. He picked up his wine glass, took a small sip of red wine, shook his head slightly, and muttered to himself, with such high income, yet still taking risks with taxes, I really don’t know what she was. Thinking at the time, Wang Chen reclined comfortably on the sofa, gently swirling the wine glass in his hand. The ice cubes clinked against the glass, producing a crisp sound, mingling with the rich aroma of the red wine that filled the entire living room. He took another sip of the wine, waiting for Long Lily to come out. Girls usually take longer to shower, so Wang Chin wasn’t in a hurry, his thoughts drifting back to the news he had just seen. As expected, an hour later, Long Lily finally emerged from the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe. Her hair was still damp, a few strands clinging to her fair, dewy cheeks. The collar of her bathrobe was slightly open, revealing her delicate collarbone. The belt at her waist was loosely tied, accentuating her slender figure, and she exuded a unique charm and shyness. Long Lily instinctively tightened her bathrobe. Wang Chen’s gaze was drawn to her, momentarily unable to look away. Long Lily approached Wang Chen, sitting on the sofa beside him, her expression natural as she said, let’s first discuss the company’s financial matters, and then we can look at the stars. I’ve roughly organized the company’s financial framework but some details are still uncertain. Although I work at a bank, I don’t know much about the financial aspects of the company. If you need, I can ask my university professor tomorrow. Wang Chen blanced at Long Lily with indifference. This woman really knew how to act, pretending to be. Clueless while fully aware. In the art of feigning ignorance, she was simply at the pinnacle, even the Oscars owed her a little golden. Statue. Wang Chan didn’t say anything. Some things lose their charm when stated too plainly, lacking a certain intrigue. Some matters. Don’t need to be explicitly pointed out. It’s enough for both to understand each other without saying a word, Wang Chan’s lips curled up. Slightly, revealing a meaningful smile. He set down the cup in his hand and stood up. He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around. Long Lily’s slender waist. Her body felt light, like a feather. Holding her was effortless for Wang Chen. The fragrance that lingered around her was so close, it made Wang Chen instantly lose himself. Ah, what are you doing? Long Lily couldn’t help but exclaim, instinctively pushing against Wang Chen’s chest with both hands. Before she could react, Wang Chen was already carrying her, striding, toward the bedroom. Wang Chen. In Wang Chen’s increasingly strong embrace, her pushes felt soft and powerless. She shrank her head. and weakly said, aren’t we supposed to look at the stars? Why are we going to the bedroom? I forgot to tell you, the telescope is in my bedroom, you have to go there to see the stars, Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and said, after all, the stars are tens of light years away, and it’s not easy to see them clearly from such a distance. We might need to observe for a long time, lying in bed might be more comfortable, he added, arriving at the bedroom door and kicking it open. Wang Chen carried Long Lily into the room, walking. Straight to the bedside, while Long Lily leaned against Wang Chen’s shoulder, her eyes still showing a hint of nervousness and shyness. The curtains slowly closed. In the quiet of the night, the room was filled only with their hurried breaths and the increasingly intense feelings of love. The next day, in the afternoon, sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains, gently spilling onto the big bed. Wang Chen woke up first, feeling an unusual softness in his palm, instinctively grasping it. His gaze fell on Long Lily, who was still fast asleep beside him. Her hair was messily scattered on the pillow and her fair cheeks bore a faint blush, making her look exceptionally charming. Unable to resist, Wang Chen reached out and gently brushed the hair from her face. This slight movement. Still startled Long Lily awake, she slowly opened her eyes and in her sleepy gaze, met Wang Chen’s affectionate look. In that instant, memories of last night surged like a tide. Her face instantly flushed and she instinctively pulled the blanket over her face. Wang. Chen looked at Long Lily’s shy appearance, his smile becoming more pronounced, and he opened his true sight to look at her. Name. Long Lily age, 26 height, 168cm charm, 93 physique, 81 favorability, 92 skills, senior accountant, senior housekeeper, senior. Etiquette, seeing that Long Lily’s favorability had reached an impressive 92 points, Wang Chen’s smile deepened, his eyes filled with indulgence as he looked at Long Lily who was still hiding under the blanket. Wang Chen gently patted the blanket and said softly, Don’t be shy, it seems my performance last night was pretty good. Long Lily let out a playful protest from under the blanket, you just like to tease me. Despite saying that, she felt sweet inside, everything from last night had completely immersed her in Wang Chen’s tenderness. After a while, she emerged from the blanket, took out her phone to check the time, and suddenly panicked as she got out of bed to look for her clothes. Why are you in such a hurry? Wang Chen asked, puzzled. He lay on the bed, watching Long Lily frantically put on her clothes. Why did it seem like she was caught in an affair? Long Lily had also experienced this for the first time. Last night, and he hadn’t heard that she had a boyfriend. Oh no, it’s already afternoon, I’m late for work. Long Lily exclaimed anxiously, fumbling to button her clothes. Did I leave you dazed last night? Wang Chen laughed heartily, teasing, you’re my bank’s private. Housekeeper, serving me is your job, so where’s the lateness? Isn’t it work time now? Upon hearing Wang Chen’s teasing, Long Lily’s movements paused for a moment, her expression frozen, she reached up to pat her head, took a deep breath, and said, you see, I’ve. just gotten used to it. Long Lily took off her clothes and returned to bed, snuggling into Wang Chen’s arms and playfully pouting, it’s all your fault. You said you wanted to stargaze at night and that’s why I stayed. Vague liar. Long Lily knew very well why she had stayed here last night. It was just that her modesty as a girl made it hard for her to say it outright. Wang Chen, being considerate, didn’t expose her. Most girls would appear shy in such moments. What boys need to do is find an excuse to keep the girl around. Never foolishly state your intentions directly. Otherwise, you’ll likely be disappointed to find that the girl will come up with all sorts of reasons to leave. Besides feeling secretly annoyed, there’s nothing else to do. Wang Chen looked at Long Lily’s playful expression. His heart filled with joy. He gently pinched her cheek and smiled. Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Since we’re considering this. Work time, tell me, Boss Wang, how should I arrange your tasks for today? Boss Wang is busy with a thousand affairs, and today is a rare moment of leisure. Why don’t we take a good rest today? long lily rolled her eyes and began to think seriously then said after a moment but i noticed your performance last night wasn’t very good your business skills still need improvement wang chen smiled as my personal assistant i need to give you some proper training luckily we have time now to review last night’s business last night wang chen had noticed that long lily’s business skills were clearly lacking she was obviously still a novice as her boss he had the responsibility to help her become more proficient since it was still early they should review well to prepare for the Upcoming intense work. Time is money. Young people must not waste time. Wang Chen, we really shouldn’t skip resting today. Long Lily. Blushed and pleaded, I really can’t handle it anymore, the knowledge I absorbed last night is already enough for me to digest for a while. And I still need to register the company, there are many processes left to handle, and I don’t have the time. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen didn’t force Long Lily. He gently stroked her and said, alright, since you’re working so hard, let’s take a break for. Now. But once you’re done with this busy period, you must come back and continue learning. Your business skills can’t fall behind. Ah um ha um. Hearing him say this, Long Lily felt relieved and quickly nodded, Once I handle the company matters, I’ll definitely devote myself to improving my business skills. Next time, I’ll make sure to satisfy you. Wang Chen didn’t press her further. They had already been open with each other. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future, no need to rush. Hehe, I’ll go make you a heartfelt lunch. I’ll be looking forward to it. After resting for a moment, Long Lily got up, put on her pajamas, tidied her makeup, and went to the kitchen. She opened the fridge, which was filled with ingredients. These were all purchased by the housekeeper that Wang Chen had arranged through Kafka Hai Jing No. 1. Although he rarely cooked, he would occasionally feel inspired to whip up a simple meal for himself. Eating out too often could get tiresome. Long Lily skillfully tied on an apron, took out the steak from the fridge to thaw, and then began washing and cutting vegetables, her movements quick and smooth. Before long, the sound of chopping filled the kitchen, accompanied by enticing aromas wafting through the air. By the time Wangchen came out of the bedroom, the dining table and the living room was already filled with a sumptuous spread. In addition to the previously prepared pan-fried steak, there was a plate of bright, red-braised pork, spicy and fragrant maipo tofu, and a plate of fresh, green stir-fried vegetables. In the center was a large bowl of steaming corn, carrot, and rib soup. The aroma was mouth-watering. Just the smell alone was enough to make one drool. Also thoughtfully served rice for Wang Chen, with chopsticks neatly placed beside it. Dang dang dang, the last hard dish is here. At this moment, Long Lily came out of the kitchen holding a plate of cola chicken wings and said, I put a lot of effort into these. Cola chicken wings, you should try them. She carefully placed the chicken wings on the dining table. The wings were coated in a thick sauce, glistening enticingly under the light. Their bright red color made one’s mouth water. Wang Chen picked up his chopsticks and took a piece of chicken wing to taste. The flavor surprised him, it was quite good. Wang Chen gave a thumbs up and mumbled, delicious. It’s a shame you’re not opening a restaurant with your cooking skills. You’re just good at flattering people, as long as you like. It, that’s enough, Long Lily said, unable to hide her joy from his compliment, her face beaming with a smile. As she spoke, she added. Another chicken wing to Wang Chen’s bowl, eat more, look at you so thin, you need to replenish. Wang Chen ate contentedly and happily. Said, with you cooking for me, I’m sure to gain a few pounds. But for your cooking, gaining weight is worth it. Long Lily nestled. Beside Wang Chen, occasionally helping him with his food and wiping the grease from the corners of his mouth. From the beginning of the meal to the end, all of Long Lily’s attention was on Wang Chen. Her attentive service made her seem like a personal secretary. She didn’t become arrogant due to their close contact, maintaining her usual gentleness and thoughtfulness. At 8 o’clock in the evening, Wang Chen drove his LaFerrari to the campus of the Finance University. He slowly parked the car under the girls’ dormitory, turned off the engine, and took out his phone to send a message to Rin Ningxiong. Just as he was about to get out of the car, someone suddenly knocked on the window. Wang Chen turned his head to see Yao Jinglong. Yao Jinglong, with a big smile on his face, opened the passenger door and plopped down inside, leaning on Wang Chen’s shoulder and saying, you’re so righteous, you still remembered to call me for tonight’s gathering. I saw your car from far away and knew you must be waiting for me here. You’re overthinking it, I didn’t come specifically to pick you up, I’m here to get Ningxiong. What? Not for me, buddy? Yao Jinglong said with a face full of. Grievance, are you really going to let your good brother take a taxi to the bar all alone? Wang Chen looked at Yao Jinglong’s pitiful expression, the corner of his mouth twitching as he teased, oh, the way you say it, if I don’t take you to the bar, I’d be a historical sinner, right? Before Wang Chen could wait for Yao Jinglong’s response, he saw Ren Ningxian quickly walking down the girl’s dormitory. Stairs, heading towards the car. Ren Ningxian was wearing a light blue dress, jogging over. Her long, shiny black hair casually, draped over her shoulders, the end slightly curled, swaying gently with her movements. Her legs were straight and slender, and with a pair of white flat shoes, each step was graceful, drawing the attention of passing boys. When Ren Ningxiong reached the car, Wang Chen opened the door to greet her. Honey, I missed you so much, Ren Ningxiong said as she hugged Wang Chen tightly. Having just become a couple with Wang Chen, she felt a void in her heart after not seeing him for a day. Now, holding him tightly, it was as if she wanted to pour out all her longing from the day. Wang Chen wrapped his arms around her slender waist and gently said, I missed you too, YR. You running so fast? Ran Ningxian looked up, her cheeks slightly flushed, and playfully said, Of course I’m in a hurry, it’s all. Your fault for taking so long to come find me, I’ve been looking forward to it since the afternoon. She lightly poked Wang Chen’s chest. With her finger, her face full of grievance. At that moment, Yao Jinglong poked his head out of the car, deliberately coughing a few. Times, jokingly saying, Ahem, you two are about done, right? Consider the feelings of a single person like me, I’m about to be stuffed. With dog food. Only then did Ren Ningxiong notice that there was someone in the car, feeling a bit embarrassed as she released Wang. Chen, her cheeks turning even redder, like a ripe apple. She slightly lowered her head and softly said, Yao Jinglong, you’re here too. Sorry, I didn’t notice you just now. Yao Jinglong smiled and waved his hand, forcing a smile as he said, it’s fine, sister-in-law. I’m used to it. Wang Chen looked at Yao Jinglong still lounging in the passenger seat, pointed outside the car, and pretended. To be angry, I say, Jinglong, don’t you see what kind of car this is? A La Ferrari two-seater. How long do you plan to be a third? Wheel? Hurry up and get out of the car, don’t waste my sweet time with Ning Shuang. Yao Jinglong looked helpless, spreading his hands. And said, alright, alright, you guy who forgets friends for the sake of beauty, you’ve done this plenty of times, I’m used to it. While speaking, he pushed open the car door and said, ah, poor me, abandoned by friends, I can only take a taxi all alone. Run Ning. Shuang covered her mouth and chuckled, waving at Yao Jinglong, Jinglong, I’m really sorry. Yao Jinglong feigned sadness and sighed. Since sister-in-law has said so, what complaints can I have? You two just enjoy your world together. After saying that, he didn’t forget to wink at Wang Chen, Wang Chen, you better take good care of sister-in-law. If she gets wronged, I won’t let you off the hook first. Enough of that, hurry up and go, stop worrying about us. Wang Chen rolled his eyes. Yao Jinglong closed the car door and stood by the roadside, watching the LaFerrari slowly start. The bodyguard convoy not far away immediately followed suit. Just as Wang. Shen’s car had not driven far, Yao Jinglong suddenly slapped his forehead, running after the car and shouting, Wang Chen, you haven’t? Told me who else is going to the bar tonight. Wang Chen slowed down, rolled down the window, and shouted, you’ll find out when you get there, hurry up and take a taxi, don’t waste time. After saying that, he stepped on the gas, and the La Ferrari instantly disappeared. Around the corner, Yao Jinglong stopped, watching the car leave, shaking his head with a smile, muttering, damn, a guy who forgets. Friends for the sake of beauty. What’s so fun about hanging out with girls? It’s way more enjoyable to hang out with guys. He then took out his phone to call a taxi, not forgetting to post a status on his social media, abandoned by a friend who forgets friends. For the sake of beauty, heading to the bar alone at midnight, is there anyone who can save my lonely soul? Not long after posting, he received several teasing replies from friends. He looked at his phone and grinned, showing no signs of feeling abandoned. Meanwhile, inside the car, Ran Ning Shuang was curiously examining the LaFerrari’s interior. However, her brows gradually furrowed. This was somewhat Different from the luxury car she had imagined. The interior was a bit too simple. The last time she rode in an Apollo IE, it was. Like this, and now in the LaFerrari, it was the same. It completely lacked the appearance one would expect from a multi-million luxury. Car. The seats were also quite hard, making them uncomfortable to sit on. They were even less comfortable than her father’s old Audi. From her childhood, Ren Ningshuang finally couldn’t help but speak up, a hint of confusion in her voice, Honey, why does the interior of this LaFerrari look so, simple? It lacks the luxurious feel I imagined for a multi-million luxury car. Why is that? Are you? Wondering why the LaFerrari’s interior isn’t as luxurious as you expected but rather somewhat plain? Wang Chan looked at Rin Ning. Shuang’s strange expression and couldn’t help but laugh, it’s uncomfortable to sit in, even a car worth hundreds of thousands is better? Um? Ran Ning Shuang nodded a bit shyly, her cheeks slightly flushed, and softly said, I was just a bit curious. In my impression. A multi-million luxury car should be very luxurious and comfortable, but this LaFerrari is different from what I thought. This kind of top -tier supercar is like that. It doesn’t just pursue luxurious interiors. They focus more on extreme performance and lightweight design. The interior is kept simple, and the materials used are lighter, which helps reduce the car’s weight, allowing it to run faster and handle better. The seats are hard because they use special materials that provide better support and protection for the driver during high-speed driving and intense maneuvers. Wang Chun chuckled and said, this has resulted in both comfort and interior. Design being incomparable to other cars. So that’s how it is. Ren Ningxuan nodded, somewhat understanding, her fingers gently. Caressing the seat as she said, I didn’t know that before. But I still think it would be better if the interior were a bit more comfortable, after all, you don’t always have to drive that fast. Ren Ningxuan looked at Wang Chun with curiosity and asked, why? Do you guys like supercars so much? They aren’t comfortable to sit in. You probably don’t know this, Wang Chun smiled and replied. Generally, those who like to drive sports cars do so either because they look cool or because they find the car’s air conditioning lacking. The air conditioning is lacking? Ren Ningxuang said, her face full of confusion. The air conditioning is quite good, I think the cooling effect is fine. Wang Chen held back a laugh, deliberately keeping her in suspense. Once he had piqued Ren Ningxuang’s curiosity to its peak, he slowly said, when I said the air conditioning is lacking, I didn’t mean it literally, that was just a joke. You’re still in school, so there are some things you might not understand. Some wealthy people buy sports cars purely to show. Ah, to put it bluntly, sports cars are also a symbol of status. Ren Ningxuan nodded, suddenly understanding. She deeply resonated. With Wang Chen’s words, having seen so many rich second-generation kids at school flaunting their sports cars to attract young girls. During her years at the financial university, she witnessed many girls, under the lure of money, throwing themselves into the arms. Of wealthy men. There were even many girls who willingly became mistresses to middle-aged men. Wealthy people aren’t really different. From ordinary people, they just have a bit more money, Wang Chen continued. But money is something you can’t take with you when you die, overly chasing external vanity can lead to losing true happiness within. Take sports cars, for example, driving one does attract attention, but if it’s only used as a means to show off how exhausting it is to pretend every day. In the end, it’s still human. Nature. Wang Chen shrugged, a teasing smile on his face. Wealthy people, in essence, are not much different from ordinary people, they. Might as well spend that time figuring out how to live more comfortably. Haha. Ren Ningxuan couldn’t help but laugh, her eyes. Crescent-shaped, her face radiating a lively glow. What you said is really funny. I used to think those who drove sports cars were. Particularly glamorous, but now that I think about it, maybe they are quite tired themselves. She tilted her head, her eyes sparkling. With curiosity. What about you? Why do you like sports cars? It can’t be just to show off, right? I’m no exception, my purpose is. Actually no different from theirs, Wang Chen said lightly. Hearing this, Ren Ningxuan looked at Wang Chen in surprise. She had seen. Many wealthy people at the financial university, most of whom were quite hypocritical. It was her first time meeting someone as candid. As Wang Chen. Don’t be so surprised, I initially liked sports cars because I thought they looked cool and gave me face when I drove. Them out. Occasionally satisfying a little vanity isn’t much different from those who show off, Wang Chen shrugged, appearing nonchalant. Time passed quietly as the two chatted. Before long, Wang Chen drove the car to the entrance of the master bar. The bar entrance was bustling with activity. Colorful lights streamed through the glass walls onto the street outside. The dynamic music was deafening, mingling with the laughter and chatter of the crowd, creating a cacophony. Young Master Wang, you’re here, a young security guard. In uniform approached as soon as Wang Chen parked the car. It’s you, Young Master Wang, do you remember me? Wang Chen nodded, handed him the car keys, and patted his shoulder, saying, how could I forget? Just like last time, help me wash the car. The young security. Guard took the car keys, his face showing a look of surprise and delight, quickly nodding, of course, of course, young master Wang. You can rest assured, I will definitely wash the car spotless. His eyes were filled with excitement. After washing Wang Chen’s car. Last time, Wang Chen had given him a generous tip which left a deep impression on him. As soon as Wang Chen arrived at the entrance, he immediately recognized him. He hurried over, thinking about how to please this wealthy young master and earn another bonus. Wang Chen and Ren Ningxuang were just about to head into the bar when a rideshare car stopped not far away, and Yao Jinglong jumped out of the car in a hurry. While fixing his slightly messy hair, he shouted, Wang Chen, wait for me. He ran a few steps to Wang Chen, his face, full of excitement, his eyes wide open, curiously looking around at everything at the bar entrance. Yao Jinglong kept mumbling, wow, this bar is so lively, I finally made it. As he spoke, he took a deep sniff, as if trying to inhale the unique blend of alcohol, perfume, and hormones that filled the bar. Let me tell you, my parents are really strict with me, this is my first time in a place like this. Yao Jinglong leaned closer to Wang Chan and Ren Ningxuang, shouting, if it weren’t for you guys being here today, I really wouldn’t have had the chance to come. His face was brimming with uncontainable excitement. As a second generation rich kid, he felt like a failure, his previous 18 years of life were no different from an ordinary person’s. Growing up, aside from having a bit more pocket money than others, his life was filled with various family rules and academic pressures. His parents always said he should wait. Until he was older to engage in so -called social occasions. At this moment, Yao Jinglong felt like a bird released from its cage. Excited to the point of being a bit overwhelmed. Let’s go, we should head in first, Wang Chen said casually. He had already made a thorough investigation of Yao Jinglong’s background. It was no wonder Yao Jinglong was so excited. Families like his were very strict. If it were an ordinary person, they would have lost their patience long ago. Wang Chen took Ren Ningxuan’s hand and led the way into the bar. Ran Ningxuang nervously followed behind Wang Chen, her palms slightly sweating as she tightly gripped his hand. It was. Also her first time in a bar. The noisy voices, deafening music, and the dazzling flickering lights made her feel a bit out of place. She. Instinctively leaned closer to Wang Chen as if seeking a sense of security. Look at that person on stage. Yao Jinglong exclaimed. Looking around excitedly, pointing at the spotlighted stage, his eyes wide with curiosity and excitement. I’ve only seen live performances. Like this online before, I didn’t expect it to be so shocking. Wow, that woman is stunning. What a waste of life. What? The heck, what are those two doing? What kind of game is this? Yao Jinglong’s eyes sparkled with excitement as he. Looked around, not missing any intriguing corner. His voice unconsciously rose with excitement, drawing the attention of those around. Him, but he was completely oblivious. As they passed the dance floor, he stopped, watching the crowd dancing freely to the music. His. Face filled with envy and eagerness to join in. Let’s get hyped up. At that moment, the atmosphere in the bar became even more intense. A strong electronic music video began playing on the big screen. The crowd on the dance floor instantly erupted, everyone swaying, wildly to the rhythm of the music. Yao Jinglong could no longer stand still, shouting, no way, I have to jump into the dance floor. This atmosphere is too intoxicating. Saying this, he dashed into the crowd without caring about Wang Chen and Ren Ning Shuang’s reactions, bouncing after the girls. Wang Chen watched Yao Jinglong rush into the dance floor, shaking his head helplessly, but a smile. couldn’t help but appear at the corner of his mouth that he turned his head to look at Ren Ningxuang and loudly asked in her ear, Ningxuang, are you adapting to this place? Ren Ningxuang bit her lips lightly, her gaze drifting between the dance floor and the lively scene around her. She gently shook her head and then nodded, saying, it’s a bit too lively, very different from where I used to be, but I find it quite novel. Let’s go, forget about him, we’ll head up first, Wangchen said. He then took Ren Ningxuang’s hand and walked towards the booth in the middle of the stage. Just as they approached, they heard Wang Sikong shouting at the top of his lungs. Wang Chen, you finally made it, we’ve been waiting for you to start. Qin Fen, Qin Su, and the chubby Li Xiang also got up, waving at Wang Chen. The few beautiful women sitting nearby quickly stood up as well. Wang Chen blanced around and saw only the four of them. There. It seemed that Su Yuza, Lin Hao, and Wei Jinglan had been excluded from their little circle. There was a bit of traffic on the way, so I arrived late, Wang Chen replied with a smile, pulling Ren Ningxuan to their side. Who is this? Qin Feng’s gaze fell on Ren. Ningxuan as he asked Wang Chen. This is my girlfriend, Ren Ningxuan, Wang Chen said, wrapping his arm around Ren Ningxuan’s shoulder and introducing her to the others. Ningxuan, you must have seen Wang Sikong and Qin Feng online, this chubby guy is Li. Xiang, and he is Qin Su. Hello, sister-in-law. Qin Su and Li Xiang almost simultaneously exclaimed loudly, their faces beaming, with warm smiles. Li Xiang even stood up to make the space next to him more spacious for Wang Chen and Ren Ningxuan to sit down. Wang. Chen, you little rascal, hiding such a beautiful girlfriend and you never let the brothers in on it, Wang Sikong said with a mischievous grin as he approached with a glass in hand. He handed the glass to Wang Chen and teased Ren Ningxuang, you have to keep an eye on him, with such a beautiful girlfriend, he might be out there flirting every day. Ren Ningxuang’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she smiles shyly, saying softly, hello everyone, it’s a pleasure to meet you all, I’m Ren Ningxuang. Ren Ningxuang felt a surge of emotions, her heart racing. She knew Wang Chen was either rich or noble, not on the same level as ordinary wealthy people. But she didn’t. Expect Wang Chen to know top-tier second-generation rich kids like Wang Sikong and Qin Fun. Moreover, it seemed they had a very good relationship, close friends. Li Xiang and Shen Su’s eyes even revealed a hint of respect for Wang Chen. Wang Chen smiled as he took the glass, clinked it with Wang Sikong, and took a sip, saying, I was just afraid you guys would be jealous. Old Wang, look at what a natural beauty is, and you still go for internet celebrities. After all these years, your taste hasn’t improved at all, Xinfen said. With a slight smirk, Wang Sitsong’s eyes widened instantly upon hearing this. He pretended to be dissatisfied, glaring at Xinfen, and reached out as if to punch his shoulder, saying, What do you know, you brat? What’s wrong with internet celebrities? They each have their own charm. I’m just keeping up with the aesthetic of the times, don’t critique me here. Besides, Wang Chen is just lucky to meet such a beautiful Ningxuan. I just haven’t encountered a natural beauty that moves my heart, otherwise, I could definitely find. 1-2. Then Wang Sikong raised a finger and waved it in the air, adding seriously, and you know, internet celebrities are different. From other women, I’m experiencing different lives, enriching my life experiences, so don’t think of me as so shallow. Alright. Alright, old Wang, stop making excuses for yourself. Junsu couldn’t help but laugh. Wang Sikong wasn’t annoyed by Junsu’s teasing. He laughed heartily and shouted, stop chatting about all this nonsense, everyone, let’s have a drink first. Tonight, we won’t go home. Until we’re drunk. He grabbed the liquor on the table and took a big gulp. The drink spilled from the corner of his mouth, but he. Didn’t care, casually wiping it with the back of his hand before slamming the glass down on the table. Old Wang, don’t drink too fast. Or you’ll end up passed out on the dance floor, and that would be quite the spectacle, Wang Chen teased with a smile as he set down his. Glass. Wang Sitsong waved his hand dismissively, burping from the alcohol, me? Drunk? What a joke. By the way, Wang Chen, didn’t. You say you brought a friend to meet us? Where is he? Don’t hide him away. Xinfeng suddenly interjected. just as Wang Chen was about. To respond, he spotted Yao Jinglong pushing his way through the crowd, drenched in sweat and panting heavily. His hair was matted too. His forehead, but his face was lit up with an excited smile, humming a tune that was completely off-key. Finally found you guys. Yao Jinglong plopped down into an empty seat, grabbing a glass of wine from the table and gulping it down. Wang Chen pointed at Yao. Jinglong with a smile and said to Wang Sitzong, this is him, Yao Jinglong. Jinglong, come here, let me introduce you, Wang Chen said. as he introduced Yao Jinglong to the others present. Upon hearing the names Wang Sitzong and Qinfen, Yao Jinglong’s eyes widened in shock and he nearly dropped his glass. Stammering, he said, Why you, you are Wang Sitzong and Qinfen? I, I see you all the time in the news and online. His face was filled with excitement and disbelief. His hands kept rubbing against his clothes, as if trying to wipe away the sweat but unsure where to put them. Wang Sitzong laughed heartily at Yao Jinglong’s reaction, saying, What’s with that? Excitement upon seeing us? From now on, we’re all brothers, no need to be so formal. Then, with curiosity, he asked, what does your family do? Wang Sitsong was a bit curious about Yao Jinglong’s background. After all, he was brought by Wang Chen, so his background must be decent. But he knew most of the young masters in Hua Gua and this one didn’t ring a bell. Yao Jinglong feeling a bit more relaxed. After Wang Sitsong’s words still had a rosy face. He scratched his head, a bit shy, and said, my family, we do a bit of steel. Business, not very big, but somewhat well-known locally. Wang Sitzong replied, steel business? Old Wang, don’t listen to him ramble. This kid is quite low-key, Wang Chen said with a hint of annoyance. Oh, somewhat well-known locally? It must be quite large then? Chen Su chimed in. This kid is from the northeast. His uncle is the chairman of a large steel group. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, implying something. His dad is in the army, and, his family background is not simple. Upon hearing Wang Chen’s words, the expressions, on everyone’s faces changed instantly, filled with surprise and curiosity. Wang Sitzong, who had been casually lounging on the sofa, straightened his back unconsciously. He looked at Yao Jinglong with great interest, his smile growing warmer, wow, brother, you really are hiding your light under a bushel. A large steel group is not something just anyone can manage. Xinfeng’s eyes widened. Slightly, a faint smile on his lips as he said softly, no wonder, I thought so, this is a large steel group, Jinglong, you really are. Low key. I knew it, Jinglong, you really know how to keep a low profile. Shenzhou exclaimed, slapping his thigh. Military background. and your family has an old man. He leaned closer to Yao Jinglong, eagerly saying, if there are any fun projects in the future, don’t forget to bring me along. Who knows, I might get to share in the glory and benefits. Li Xiang, sitting nearby with a simple smile, didn’t say much, but his eyes were filled with admiration. He raised his glass, gesturing towards Yao Jinglong, silently expressing his respect. Yao Jinglong felt a bit flustered by everyone’s reactions, his face turning bright red as he repeatedly waved his hands. Everyone, please stop saying that. Alright, everyone, stop being so surprised. This is a rare opportunity. Getting to know Jinglong means we must have a drink. Wang Sikong had a smile at the corner of his mouth as he picked up the wine on the table and stood up, raising his glass high. Don’t be shy, everyone truly considers you a brother. If you have anything in the future, just speak up. We will definitely help you out. Xinfeng also stood up, holding a wine glass in one hand and placing the other on his shoulder, saying, Boldly, that’s right, let’s drink. Tonight, we won’t go home until we’re drunk. As he spoke, he deliberately raised an eyebrow and looked at Yao Jinglong, saying, Jinglong, don’t ruin everyone’s fun. Yao Jinglong took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart, and said loudly, I was too reserved before. Today, this glass of wine, I, Yao Jinglong, will drink it. Everyone treats me. Sincerely, and if I keep being shy, what kind of man would I be? In the future, whether it’s business matters or troubles in life, as long as you call on me, I, Yao Jinglong, will go through fire and water without hesitation. With that, he tilted his head back and down the wine in his glass, his face instantly turning red. After finishing, he even showed the bottom of the glass, with wine sliding down the corner of his mouth and dripping onto his clothes, but he didn’t care at all. Refreshing. Xinfeng’s eyes lit up. Today’s drink is the beginning of our brotherhood. From now on, we will have a bond that is worth our lives. Wang Chen looked at Yao Jinglong’s excited expression and couldn’t help but say, all right, you guys stop urging him to drink. This kid is young and doesn’t know his limits. Don’t let him get drunk. I’ll have to take him home later. Xinfun waved his hand dismissively, wearing a carefree smile, it’s rare to be so happy today, and Jinglong is so generous. If we don’t drink to our heart’s content, wouldn’t that be a waste of this wonderful atmosphere tonight? He picked up another bottle of wine, filled his and Yao Jinglong’s glasses, and said, come on, Jinglong, let’s have another round. At this moment, Yao Jinglong’s cheeks were flushed, and his eyes sparkled with excitement. Without saying a word, he raised his glass again, clinked it with Xinfun’s, and took another big gulp. As the wine went down his throat, he couldn’t. help but cough a few times but the smile on his face grew even brighter wang chen shook his head helplessly watching the group become increasingly lively and decided not to dampen their spirits you all can go down now wang sikong suddenly waved to a few girls nearby signaling them to leave okay boss the girl stood up in response and walked down from the booth one by one by the way wang sikong turned and sat next to wang chen saying the company you mentioned to me before has news bite dance wang chen raised His glass and clinked it with Wang Sitsong’s, saying lightly. Yes. Wang Sikong smiled, according to internal news, ByteDance has a. Funding gap. They will likely conduct pre-IPO financing next month at the latest. This company is having a tough time. According to. My subordinate’s analysis, ByteDance has only recently found some profitable models since its establishment. I don’t know why you have. Your eye on this company, Wang Sikong continued, taking a sip of wine. Although they now have revenue channels like Advertising and. E-commerce, the initial investment is huge, and it’s not easy to fill the funding gap. This pre-IPO financing has indeed caused quite a stir in the industry, you might have to go through a lot of trouble, Wang Chen said, his expression unchanged, gently swirling, his wine glass and watching the ripples in the liquid. He then slowly spoke, it’s precisely because of the large initial investment that they have only just begun to explore profitable models, which makes it even more promising. Stop keeping me in suspense, get to the point. Don’t listen to old wine, what good can he come up with? Sheen Frun interjected. I’ve also heard some news. It’s said that for this financing, ByteDance is offering quite a lot of shares and many investment firms are interested. How many shares have you found out about? Wang Chen leaned slightly forward and asked. This is ByteDance, after all. The future commercial empire, the most dazzling company in the world was still just a small firm in 2018. Although ByteDance had no plans to go public, its valuation in the private sector had already exceeded 3 trillion. While there might be some exaggeration in that figure, it was still considered a giant. Among internet companies, especially with DY’s ability to generate revenue through sales, it had reshaped the e-commerce landscape. In just a few years, now was a great time to get on board. How could Wang Chen, who was living a second life, miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? He wanted to acquire all the shares that ByteDance was releasing this time. If he missed this round of financing, he would never have the chance to obtain so many shares again. The exact number of shares released is still unclear, Wang Sitsong. continued but given the commotion bite dance is making it has attracted many companies in the industry so there should be quite a few shares the value should be in the tens of billions of dollars old institutions like sequoia and softbank are already itching to get in but it’s not easy to snatch shares from them even if it’s not easy we have to try wang chen said firmly his determination leaving no room for doubt are you really going to invest are you crazy this is not a small amount and the risks are huge although ByteDance looks promising now, who can guarantee its future success? If the investment goes down the drain, it won’t be a joke. Wang Sitsong’s eyes widened, his surprise evident on his face. He had initially approached the topic jokingly, just asking someone to casually look up the company. Although ByteDance had found a profitable model, Wang Sitsong was not too optimistic about its future. In his view, this company belonged to the type that required large investments but yielded low returns. With that money, it would be. Better to invest in his own live streaming platform, or he could at least make some profit. It’s just tens of billions of dollars. I can still come up with that. Wang Chen chuckled lightly. No way, dude, do you really have that much money? Xinfuan’s eyes were as. White as saucers, his mouth slightly agape, disbelief written all over his face. It’s just a mere tens of billions of dollars, and my. Old man is backing me up. Wang Chen replied nonchalantly. He currently had 300 billion RMB in his bank account and didn’t. Even need to ask his father for money. He hadn’t mentioned it to Qin Fun and the others, fearing it would scare them. Ren Ning Shuang had been quietly sitting beside Wang Chen, like a quiet little deer, listening to their discussion about investments. At that moment, hearing the words tens of billions of dollars, she felt her head buzz as if struck by a heavy blow. Her eyes widened, and a few drops of wine spilled from her glass, completely unnoticed. Her eyes were filled with disbelief, her mouth slightly open, forming a small O shape, her expression frozen. It was as if she had been hit by a spell from the Monkey King. She turned to look at Wang Chen, her eyes filled with shock and confusion as if confirming she hadn’t misheard. She couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, grateful that she had. Seized the opportunity to catch Wang Chen. This was just too extravagant. Are you out of your mind? Wang Si Tsong exclaimed, are you planning to acquire all the shares released by ByteDance? That’s tens of billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of Huashia coins. If this investment fails, you’ll lose hundreds of billions. Your dad will whip you with a belt. I told you before, ByteDance. is the best project I’ve seen in recent years, Wang Chen said. I don’t think it will fail, I actually see this as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If I miss this chance, it will be hard to find another investment opportunity comparable to it in the next 10 or even 20 years. The speed of ByteDance’s development is evident to all, its products have deeply rooted themselves in people’s lives, and the user base is incredibly vast, something that countless companies dream of. Wang Sikong still looked worried, shaking his head repeatedly, that may be true, but the business world changes in an instant. With old investment firms like Sequoia and SoftBank, getting involved, their professional teams and resources are not something we can easily compete with. Why would ByteDance accept our investment? Wang Chin chuckled lightly, his expression confident, they have teams and we are not lacking in funds. They have resources and we can integrate them. Don’t forget, we have advantages in the domestic market that they don’t have policies, connections, resources. Can they compare with us? If ByteDance wants to further expand its business domestically, it can’t do without our support. Wang Chen smiled, not elaborating further. At that time, apart from a few real big shots, not many people thought ByteDance was a company with limitless potential. It was normal for Wang Sikong and the others to be worried. Wang Chen chuckled again and continued. My investment company is already in the process of registration. Are you interested in taking a stake? I guarantee that in the next three years, your assets will multiply several times over and the returns will far exceed your imagination. After hearing this, a hint of hesitation flashed in Wang Sikong’s eyes. But thinking of Wang Chan’s terrifying background, he gritted his teeth and said, firmly, alright, count me in. I believe you this time. If it really turns out like you said, then you will be my Wang Sitsong’s god of wealth from now on. Xinfen slapped his thigh and exclaimed loudly, I’ve been wanting to follow you to make a big splash for a long time, I must invest. At this moment, Shensu and the chubby guy also came over. Shensu’s eyes sparkled with anticipation, we can’t be left out, we also want to follow you to make some money. The chubby guy nodded repeatedly beside him, his round face full of. Eagerness, yes, yes, I’ve taken out all my savings. How much is the initial investment for the company, and how much funding is needed? Wang Sikong asked curiously. I’m currently planning to invest a hundred billion just to play around, Wang Chen said with a slight. Smile, casually. One hundred billion? Everyone exclaimed in unison, their eyes wide open, their faces filled with shock. That’s one hundred. Billion Hua Xia coins. Real cash. How many people in Hua Gua can come up with that? Even Wang Sitzong’s father probably couldn’t produce. that much cash in a short time. This was still in 2018, at the peak of Yida group, Wang Sikong almost choked on his own saliva, coughing a few times before incredulously saying, your ambition is too great, you just say you’ll invest 100 billion like it’s nothing. Do you really not treat money as money? Shinsu swallowed hard and stammered, Wang Chen, this, this is too extravagant, right? I thought a few tens of millions would be enough, but compared to you, it’s like a small fry meeting a big shot. Qin Fen also looked astonished and said, 100 billion is no small amount. are you really confident about this investment you’re still impressive the chubby guy opened his mouth wide and after a long time he managed to squeeze out i feel like i as a rich second generation am no different from an ordinary person compared to you ren ningshuang had already become numb from the shock the numbers wang chan mentioned were astronomical to her is there a difference between tens of billions of dollars and 100 billion hua sha coins for her no difference Wang Chin looked at everyone’s surprised expressions and waved his hand with a smile, everyone, don’t be surprised. Since we’ve decided to do this, we must have enough courage. Moreover, I am confident that this investment will bring unimaginable returns. He paused and continued, as for your investment amounts, just invest according to your capabilities. The shareholding will be determined by how much you invest. Wang Sikong took a deep breath, trying to recover from the shock, his eyes sparkling with eagerness, and, said, alright, since you’ve said that, I won’t hold back. I’ll invest 3 billion, just for your courage and vision, I’ll take a gamble. Xinfen pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, I’ll invest 100 million. Although it’s not as much as you too. It’s most of my savings, so I’m counting on you. I don’t have that much liquidity right now, so I’ll invest 50 million for now. I hope to at least get a taste of the soup, Chen Su said nervously. I’ll also invest 50 million, as long as I can have a taste of the soup. That’s enough, the chubby guy patted his chest and said loudly. What about you? Wang Chen turned to look at Yao Jinglong. Me? Yao Jinglong pointed at himself and asked, can I invest too? What are you talking about? We’re all brothers here. If there’s a profitable project, we won’t leave you out, Wang Chin said with a slight frown. Yao Jinglong came from a well-connected family and was an indispensable force. No one could afford to lose his investment. With Yao Jinglong’s participation, the company essentially gained an extra layer of solid firewall. Coupled with his family connections and those of Wang Sikong, Qinfun, and others, they had woven a Vast and sturdy network of relationships. In Hua Gua, no one could snatch the sweet cake from their hands. In that case, I’ll invest. 20 million. Yao Jinglong said emotionally, this is all my pocket money, so don’t think it’s too little. Qin Fen punched him on the shoulder and said, you’re being too modest. Exactly, this 20 million carries weight. Plus, with everyone’s network, it’s a slaughter. In Hua Gua. Wang Sikong said meaningfully. Alright, brothers should be clear about accounts. Let me lay it out first, Wang Chen paused. and said directly, based on the investment ratio, Old Wang will give you 3% of the shares, Old Chin 1%, and Chen Su, Li Xiang, and Jing Long, you three will each get 0.5%. Any problems? The few of them exchanged glances and said in unison, no, we have no objections. The bar was filled with flashing lights and deafening music, yet they were completely oblivious, fully immersed in. The discussion about this business investment getting more and more excited. Many times, some actions that seemed crazy to others led. to the creation of a great company. The wheels of fate quietly turned in such unintentional moments. Like a deeply buried seed, it. Took root, sprouted, and thrived under the nourishment of time. Who would have thought that years later, whale capital would become an. Undisputed giant in the investment world? Aggressively expanding outward while investing wildly inward, it was described by the West. As an invincible beast from the eastern battlefield, reshaping the industry landscape wherever it went. Its investment map continued. To expand, from Asia to Europe and then to America. Every move could trigger a strong market reaction. Those Western investment. Institutions that once looked down on whale capital had no choice but to re-evaluate it. Whenever whale capital announced an investment. In a certain field, the Western capital tycoons would nervously monitor its every move, fearing they might miss any potential industry. Shift. Wang Sitzong’s life trajectory was also altered by this 300 million investment, allowing him to avoid the fate of mingling with. various internet celebrities and wasting time online, as he had in his previous life, while his family’s assets gradually declined, leading to numerous embarrassing moments. As time gradually approached dawn, the noise in the bar faded with the night. The colorful lights gradually dimmed, leaving only a few bright lights illuminating the somewhat messy booths, empty bottles and crumpled. Tissues were scattered everywhere on the floor, and the air was filled with a mix of alcohol and tobacco. The staff looked exhausted. as they mechanically began to clean up the tables and chairs, clearing away the traces left by last night’s revelry. At 3 in the morning, the streets of the magic city were shrouded in darkness carrying a hint of coolness. A chilly night breeze swept over Erun. Ningxiong couldn’t help but tighten her clothes. Wang Chen stood beside her, his gaze clear. Ren Ningxiong leaned against his shoulder. Yawning from time to time, though tired, she hadn’t drunk too much yet. Wang Sikong rubbed his temples, trying to wake himself up. He Walked over to Wang Chan, patted his shoulder, and laughed casually, it’s been a long time since we’ve had such a good chat. In his signature unruly gaze, there was a hint of excitement and satisfaction, you know, with our group of brothers coming together, we’re bound to turn the skies of Hua Gua upside down in the future, right? Qin Fen strolled over leisurely, holding half a bottle of mineral water. He took a sip, cleared his throat, and said, I’ve staked my entire fortune on this, if we lose this time, you guys will have to take turns treating me to meals. I’ll be relying on you to support me. This has to succeed. Once it does, we must celebrate properly. Wang Sikong continued, his eyebrows dancing with enthusiasm. By then, I’ll book a luxury cruise ship and we can throw a grand party. On the sea for three days and nights, inviting a hundred or so models. And let’s hire a few top bands to perform live. Just us. Brothers, enjoying ourselves. Xinfeng’s eyes lit up as he slapped his thigh, excitedly shouting, You’re the best, old Wang. You really. Know how to think. Alright, it’s settled. Once we make a fortune, we’ll go out to sea and have a blast. Meanwhile, Yao Jinglong, Chen Su, and the chubby Li Xiang were being helped by security, acting tipsy. Chen Su was grinning foolishly on the side, ha, I’m going to get rich. I’m going to get rich. That’s 20 million. How many girls can I date with that? Yao Jinglong shouted with a thick tongue, then started counting on his fingers. All right, we’ll be leaving first. Wang Chen shook his head at the group, smiling. I’ll take care of Jinglong, you guys go ahead, Wang Sikong said. Okay, Wang Chen replied lightly. At that moment, a young security guard approached Wang Chen, handing him the keys with respect, Young Master Wang, here are your car keys. I’ve already washed the car. Thanks for the trouble, Wang Chen nodded, opened the storage compartment of the LaFerrari and tossed a stack of cash to the guard. The young guard received the cash with both hands, hurriedly thanking him. Thank you, Young Master Wang. Thank you, Young Master. Wang, you’re too kind, this is what I should do. Wang Chen simply patted his shoulder. He then got into a Bentley Mulsan arranged by Wang Sikong with Ren Ningxiong. The LaFerrari was driven back by Wang Chen’s bodyguard. In the Celestial Palace. Unique geometric. Chandeliers emitted a soft and subtle light. The light was filtered through special lampshades, resembling a warm golden mist, gently. Diffusing in the air without any aggressiveness. On the luxurious big bed in the master bedroom, Ren Ningxian lay naked, tightly hugging. Wang Chen, her head resting on his solid chest, staring blankly at the ceiling. Wang Chen was like a tireless machine, not quite. Human. He was simply a devil. God knows how she had spent those hours, several times she almost wanted to escape. But her body felt drained. Of strength, leaving her only able to snuggle weakly in Wang Chen’s embrace, unable to move. In the end, she could only let Wang Chen do as he pleased. After a while, Ren Ningxiong finally caught her breath. She moved her sore limbs, slightly furrowing her brows, and softly chided, you bad guy, you’re about to wear me out. Wang Chen’s lips curled into a satisfied and indulgent smile, his arms gently tightening around her. He rubbed his chin against the top of her head, laughing softly, who told you to be so charming? I. Just can’t help myself when I get close to you. Wang Chen’s fingers gently traced along her spine, finally resting on a soft, rounded. Spot. He toyed with it delicately. Ren Ningxian’s cheeks flushed and she lightly punched his chest, you just know how to make me. Happy. A slight smile couldn’t help but curve at the corners of her mouth, her eyes filled with an undeniable sweetness. Wang Chen looked. At Ren Ningxian’s shy demeanor, his smile deepening, have you rested well? Then let’s have another round. Ah, again. Honey, please spare me. Ran Ningxuan’s delicate pink lips slightly pouted, her voice carrying a hint of coquetry and reproach. She instinctively clutched the blanket tightly, half concealing herself as if this thin cover could serve as her sanctuary. Ran Ningxuan kept burrowing her head into Wang Chen’s embrace, her voice soft and trembling, tinged with a pitiful tone. Honey, please spare me. I really have no strength left. She tilted her head slightly, her big eyes looking at Wang Chen with a pitiful gaze, sparkling and enchanting. Wang Chen’s heart instantly melted like water. He could only helplessly say, alright, I’ll let you off this time. Upon hearing this, the once pitiful expression on Ren Ning Shuang’s face instantly blossomed into a surprised smile, her eyes curving into crescent. Moons. You’re so good, honey, I love you. Her delicate pink lips slightly lifted, pressing against Wang Chen’s lips. Wang Chen. Was momentarily taken aback by her sudden enthusiasm, his lips involuntarily curling up. He reached out to gently wrap his arms around her. Head, reciprocating her affection. Their breaths intertwined. After a long while, they slowly parted, a hint of days still lingering in Ren Ningxuan’s eyes. Once she regained her senses, she finally had time to take in the luxurious penthouse before her. The genuine leather sofa imported from Italy. The coffee table in front of the sofa was carved from a single piece of natural crystal. The chandelier overhead resembled the stars in the night sky, the crystal facets scattering light, illuminating every corner of the room. Every detail in the room exuded extreme luxury. but the most eye-catching feature was the panoramic glass that surrounded them. Looking out, the entire city unfolded before her without reservation. The towering skyscrapers shone brilliantly in the night. In the distance, boats glided slowly across the river, leaving trails of golden ripples that reflected the neon lights on the shore. Ran Ning Shuang was utterly shocked. She realized that a house could be this luxurious. When she first arrived at the Tianmu Palace, Wang Chen had pulled her into a game, leaving her no time to appreciate the surroundings. There was no time to notice these details. Ren Ning Shuang shifted her gaze from the panoramic glass, her eyes filled with eyes she said, Honey, I never imagined there could be such a beautiful place. It’s like a palace from a fairy tale. Wang Chen’s lips curled up, revealing a hint of pride as he gently brushed her hair. And said, Actually, after living here for a while, it’s just like that. Ren Ning Shuang couldn’t help but curiously asked, How much did this place cost? In such a prime location, it must be quite expensive. Not much, around 200 million, Wang Chen replied. casually. His nonchalant tone made it seem as if he were discussing something as ordinary as a trivial matter, rather than an amount that most people could only dream of. Upon hearing this, Ren Ningxuan’s eyes widened in disbelief, her face filled with incredulity. She felt a wave of dizziness, her already weak body seeming to lose its last bit of strength, becoming even more limp, nearly slipping off. Wang Chen. After a while, she stammered, two, two hundred million? That’s just two. The astronomical figure echoed repeatedly. In her mind, like a never-ending tape recorder, resonating and swirling, she marveled at Wang Chen’s wealth and felt fortunate to be by his side. Before her family faced turmoil, Ren Ningxuan’s family was considered quite well off in the Magic City, definitely part of the middle class. Locals already owned their own home, and their family assets were worth over 10 million, yet even so.a house worth 200 million was still an unattainable existence for her. Wang Chen’s wealth far exceeded her imagination, although last night. At the bar, the men had boasted about investments in the hundreds of billions, she had thought there was a hint of exaggeration in there. Words. But now, it seemed that Wang Chen’s extravagance was far greater than what she had heard or imagined. Honey, what you guys. Talked about last night at the bar, those investments in the hundreds of billions, are they all true? I thought. Ren Ningxuang paused. A bit embarrassed, and smiled, I thought you were just bragging to impress. It’s understandable that you think that way, Wang. Chen raised an eyebrow and said, after all, there aren’t many in the entire Hua Gua who can pull out hundreds of billions at once, it does sound like bragging. Ren Ningxuan looked at the luxurious house in front of her. Then she gazed out the window. The night. View of the magic city was breathtaking, with towering skyscrapers and flickering neon lights. She took a deep breath and slowly spoke. This house is indeed worth 200 million. Living here feels completely different from an ordinary house. Honey, I used to think. I had seen a lot, but now that I’m here, I realize how shallow my experiences are. Her voice carried a hint of emotion and confusion. Wang Chen gently wrapped his arm around her shoulder and said, don’t say that. Following me, you’ll see a more wonderful world. If you want, you can move in and live with me. Upon hearing this, Ren Ningxuan was suddenly filled with joy and said, honey, you. Want me to move in here with you? Of course, you’re my girlfriend. If I don’t let you live here, who else would I let? Wang Chen. Looked at the sparkle in her eyes and couldn’t help but smile, gently pinching her nose. He had said this to several women before, but. Ren Ningxuang was still completely unaware. Wang Chen admitted he was a scumbag. However, what he said to Ren Ningxuang was not a lie. One woman can live here, and so can two. Ideally, all his women would want to live with him. Then he would probably be the happiest man in the world. Honey, what’s wrong? Wang Chen looked down at Ren Ningxuang, puzzled. Her eyes were slightly red, filled with emotion, and tears as big as beans slipped from the corners of her eyes. She gently bit her lower lip and said in a soft, sultry. Voice, it’s nothing, I just feel so lucky to meet someone as wonderful as you and to live in such a beautiful house. She wrapped her. Arms around Wang Chen’s waist, burying her face in his chest, feeling his warm body and strong heartbeat. The tears streaming down soaked. Wang Chen’s chest. Ren Ningxuang was deeply moved. Although she was being kept by Wang Chen and didn’t know if she was the third or fourth mistress, she truly felt his kindness towards her, which was no different from a normal couple in love. It was really so. Happy. Wang Chen wore a gentle smile, lightly stroking Ren Ningxuan’s hair and said, I’m also very lucky to have met someone as wonderful as you. Wah, asterisk 3, forward slash Ren Ningxuan looked up and planted a heavy kiss on Wang Chen’s lips. The glistening light in her eyes sparkled with a different allure, exuding a captivating charm. She stared intently at Wang Chen, her gaze filled with love and affection, as if her eyes could draw him in. Honey, I’ve rested well, let’s battle it out for 300 rounds again. Wang Chen. Looked at Ren Ningxuang in surprise, why was this little girl so eager for a fight now? Are you provoking me? Aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to get out of bed later? You can try and see who can’t get out of bed later, Ren Ningxuang slightly tilted her head. Gently rubbing her nose against Wang Chen’s chin then, deliberately blowing a breath of warm air into his ear, she giggled and said. What’s wrong? Are you too scared to accept my challenge? Although the first half of the battle had drained Ren Ningxuang’s energy, she now had only one thought, to completely melt herself into Wang Chen, inseparable from one another. Wang Chen felt his heart race. At her series of little actions, looking at Ren Ningxuan’s flushed cheeks and her provocative gaze, he couldn’t help but feel both. Amused and exasperated. Faced with Ren Ningxuan’s proactive declaration of war, he naturally wouldn’t back down. Alright, since you’re so interested, I won’t hold back, Wang Chen said, suddenly exerting force and pinning Ren Ningxuan beneath him, their breaths intertwining once more. The air was filled with an ambiguous and passionate atmosphere. Hormones were overflowing. A night of joy passed swiftly. When Wang Chin woke up again, it was already 3 in the afternoon. He moved his arm, which had grown a bit sore from being used as a pillow by Ren Ningxuan. Beside him, Ren Ningxuan was still asleep, her cheeks rosy and the corners of her mouth, slightly upturned, as if she were having a sweet dream. He hadn’t expected that Ren Ningxuan would be so proactive afterward, consciously unlocking several positions. He quietly got up, put on a bathrobe, and walked into the bathroom. The warm water washed over, his body gradually waking him up. Recalling the madness of last night, a smile crept onto his lips. Ren Ningxuan’s enthusiasm and boldness deepened his infatuation with this woman. After freshening up, Wang Chin went to the kitchen planning to prepare a belated lunch. For Ren Ningxuan, he skillfully opened the fridge, took out the ingredients and busied himself in the kitchen. Before long, the aroma of food filled the air. Meanwhile, Ren Ningxuan slowly woke up. She stretched lazily, opened her eyes to find the space beside her empty and felt a twinge of disappointment. But soon, she was drawn in by the enticing smell coming from the kitchen. She slipped on. One of Wang Chen’s clothes, shuffled into her slippers, and followed the scent outside. You’re awake, Wang Chen said, turning around. With a smile as he heard her footsteps. Come and taste my cooking, let’s see if it suits your taste. Ren Ningxuan walked up behind. Wang Chen, hugged him from behind, pressed her face against his back and softly said, You’re so nice. Wang Chen turned around. And kissed her forehead, saying, Sit down, it’ll be ready soon. After Ren Ningxuang finished washing up in the bathroom, she obediently sat at the dining table, her eyes fixed on Wang Chen’s busy figure, her heart filled with sweetness. Before long, Wang Chen finished cooking. The two enjoyed their belated lunch sweetly. After the meal, Ren Ningxuang returned to bed to rest, facing her resentful gaze, Wang Chen helplessly said, don’t blame me, it was you who wanted to keep fighting last night. That’s true, but didn’t you make any mistakes? You didn’t even think about my feelings, Ren Ningxuang’s cheeks instantly flushed and she pretended to glare at. Wang Chen, lacking the bravado she had shown when declaring war last night. Her pink lips slightly pouted, resembling a cute little bun. She reached out and gently tapped Wang Chen’s shoulder, looking like she was using force, but in reality, it was soft and tender. You still dare to say. You’re the one who’s good at throwing around sarcastic remarks now. Where was your mercy last night during? All that commotion? I’m all sore now, I can barely get out of bed. Can’t you comfort me properly instead of teasing me? Ran Ning Shuang. Lifted her head, her big watery eyes shimmering. She looked as if she had suffered a great injustice. Alright, alright, it’s my fault, I’m sorry, Wang Chun chuckled. Seeing her like this, he quickly sat on the edge of the bed and gently pulled Ren Ning Shuang into his arms. Once you’ve rested well, we’ll go out for a bit. Go out for what? Ren Ning Shuang asked, puzzled. We’ll go out to eat. Later, and after dinner, I’ll buy you something. Wang Chun smiled and said, you worked so hard last night, of course I have to treat you well. As soon as Ren Ning Shuang heard this, her eyes lit up instantly. She sat up straight, gripping Wang Chen’s arm tightly. The look of grievance on her face was replaced by anticipation, and her lips couldn’t help but curl up as she said, really? You can’t be lying. To me. Of course it’s true, when have I ever lied to you? First, let’s go eat, and then we can stroll around the mall. Whatever. You want to eat or play, I’ll go along with you, okay? Ren Ningxuan’s cheeks flushed with excitement. She jumped into Wang Chen’s arms, hugging him tightly and said, hubby, you’re the best. In the evening, under Ren Ningxuan’s strong willpower, she made her weak body understand who the true master was. It is a woman’s nature that shopping is one of her greatest hobbies. Dressed up and looking elegant, Ren Ningxuan gracefully walked out of the bedroom. She wore a simple yet elegant floral dress that perfectly outlined her slender waist, the hem swaying gently with her steps. She reached out and linked her arm with Wang Chen’s, saying, hubby, let’s go. Wang Chen nodded. Then the two went downstairs and got into a la ferrari heading to a restaurant for dinner. The meal cost 6,888 yuan. Afterward, Wangqin took Renningshuang to the Chintan Taikuli. Chintan Taikuli is located in the Chintan area of the Pudong New District. It is home to numerous brand-name stores, covering fashion, jewelry, beauty, and food among other fields. In the center of the mall is a spacious square adorned with uniquely shaped art installations that add an artistic atmosphere to the entire space. Surrounding it are several outdoor cafes and dessert shops. The air is filled with the aroma of coffee and the tempting scent. of food, blending with the fashionable atmosphere around, creating a unique charm. Here, each store has its own distinct character. They are not just places for shopping, but stages for showcasing fashion and culture. Wow, hubby, this place really lives up to its reputation. So many big brand stores. Run Ning Shuang exclaimed, pulling Wang Chen along excitedly. Let’s go in and take a look, Wang. Chen said with a smile. The two walked hand in hand into the Dior flagship store. A sales associate in a sharp business outfit immediately. greeted them warmly, her face adorned with a professional yet friendly smile, saying, welcome to Dior, if you need anything, just let us know. Just looking around for now, Wang Chen replied casually. Sure, the sales associate nodded with a smile and stepped back. She maintained a perfect distance, neither interrupting them nor being unprepared to assist. Ren Ningxuan’s gaze was drawn to a row of new dresses hanging prominently and she quickly walked over, her fingers gently gliding over the fabric of each piece. Hubby, what do you think of this pink one? Ren Ningxuang picked up a puff sleeve dress and gestured in front of herself. Wang Chen. Stepped forward, examining it seriously, the color suits you, but do you think the puff sleeves might be a bit too much? The sales. Associate, seeing this, stepped forward at the right moment to introduce, this is our main design for the season, puff sleeves are the. Most popular element right now, adding sweetness and fashion to the overall look. Moreover, its waist design can beautifully shape. The figure, highlighting this young lady’s slender waist. Ren Ningxuang fought for a moment and decided to try it on. After she walked into the fitting room, Wang Chen sat down in the waiting area. The sales associate thoughtfully handed him a glass of lemonade, saying, please take a rest, sir, call me if you need anything. After a while, Ren Ningxuan emerged wearing the pink dress, the hem, swaying gently with her steps. Hubby, do you think it looks good? Ren Ningxuan looked at Wang Chen with anticipation. Wang Chen stood up, walked around her, and smiled, saying, it looks quite nice. The sales assistant beamed with a smile, quickly stepping forward. Her eyes filled with genuine admiration as she said, Miss, as soon as you put this on, you look just like a model stepping off the fashion runway, this dress seems tailor-made for you. The pink compliments your skin like snow, and with the playful puff sleeves and the waist design highlighting your perfect curves, it’s truly stunning. It is beautiful, but, Ren Nanshuang gently stroked the hem of the dress, her brow slightly furrowed as she spoke. She listened to the sales assistant’s praises, a happy smile appearing on her face, but a hint of hesitation flickered in her eyes. This dress came with a hefty price tag. the habit of being frugal, ingrained. In her over the years, made it hard for her to make a decision. Wang Chen noticed Ren Yangshuan’s hesitation. He gently wrapped his arm around her shoulders and turned to the sales assistant, saying, we’ll take this one, please wrap it up for us. Ren Yangshuan. Opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but was interrupted by Wang Chen’s next words. If you like something, just buy it. Wang. Chen gently pinched her cheek, smiling as he said, don’t forget, you’re my girlfriend, you deserve the best. And since I rarely get. To accompany you, go ahead and pick out a few more, we’ll buy everything you like. The sales assistant’s smile grew even brighter upon hearing this, and she quickly replied, Sir, you’re so considerate. Miss, we have many more styles in our store, I’m sure you’ll find. More that you love. This way, please, we have some new arrivals that would suit you perfectly. With that, she enthusiastically guided Ren Yangshuang deeper into the store. Ren Yangshuang felt particularly touched as Wang Chen half-pushed, half-led her alone. This feeling of being cherished made her feel like the happiest person in the world. Under the sales assistant’s guidance, she arrived at the back of the store. The new dresses hanging there shimmered under the lights, exuding a captivating luster. Ran Nyangxuan’s gaze was drawn to a black fitted dress, adorned with exquisite rhinestones at the neckline, simple yet elegant. She gently took it down and posed in front of the mirror, looking at Wang Chen with a questioning gaze. Go for it, Wang Chen nodded. Encouraged by Wang Chen, Ran Nyangxuan began to weave through the racks, selecting clothes she liked. Before long, several garments of varying styles were draped. over her arm wang chen turned to the ever enthusiastic sales assistant and said we’ll take these along with the ones she tried on earlier please wrap them all in the same size a glimmer of surprise flashed in the sales assistant’s eyes and her smile became even more radiant as she hurriedly replied of course sir please wait a moment i’ll arrange that for you right away before long the sales assistant pushed a shopping cart filled with clothes toward them each carefully packaged dress was neatly arranged inside tied with dior’s signature ribbon wang chen approached the checkout counter The sales assistant skillfully scanned each item into the system, and with the crisp sound of the scanner, the numbers on the screen kept climbing. Sir, the total comes to 128,890 yuan. How would you like to pay? By card, Wang Chen replied, taking out his bank card. The sales assistant took the card with both hands and began processing it on the card machine. Soon, she handed the receipt in pen to Wang Chen, saying, Sir, please sign here. Wang Chen took the pen and signed his name with a flourish. Payments successful. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 128 ,890. Double cashback 257,780. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 12 system points. The sales assistant returned the bank card and receipt to Wang Chen with both hands. Not forgetting to present a delicate Dior gift bag. This is a small gift we prepared for our esteemed customers. We hope you like it. Thank you very much for your visit and support. If you have any issues while wearing it. such as needing size adjustments or cleaning suggestions, feel free to contact us at any time. The sales assistant carefully organized the shopping bag and handed over her business card. A customer as generous as Wang Chen was indeed rare, and she naturally wanted to do her utmost to maintain this client. Wang Chen took the card, glanced at it, and casually put it in his pocket. Then, he and Ren. Nyanshuang picked up the shopping bag and walked out of the Dior store. In the bright corridor of the mall, Ren Nyanshuang linked her arm with Wang Chen’s, her face glowing with happiness. The two strolled leisurely, passing by a dessert shop, the sweet aroma wafting. From inside instantly caught Ren Yangshuan’s attention. She stopped in her tracks, gazing longingly at the exquisite cakes inside. Come. On, let’s pick something you love, Wangchen said, understanding her cue, and pulled her inside. Upon entering the shop, the array of desserts was dazzling. Ren Yangshuan chose a signature half-baked cheesecake and a chocolate cape roll, spending a total of 89 yuan. Afterward, Wang Chen took her to buy a lot of cosmetics and clothes, as well as a Cartier watch and some accessories, making her extremely happy. No woman could resist such temptations. If there were any who could, it would only mean they weren’t expensive. Enough. Of course, the perfect match of Balenciaga stockings and Valentino high heels was essential. In the end, the total expenditure was 786,800 yuan. Ding. The system detected that the host spent $786,800, double cashback $1,573 ,600. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 78 system points. Wang Chin heard the system notification sounds ringing in his mind but felt no waves of emotion. After experiencing countless cashback and point rewards, the increase in money was merely a number bouncing on the screen, no longer able to stir even the slightest ripple of emotion within him. Ran Yangshuan, of course, was once again moved, having accompanied. Wang Chen and the Tianmu Palace for several days. Wang Chen was immersed in this gentle haven, blissfully unaware of the outside world. Shen, Qingya and Shen Mengiao occasionally flew to the Magic City, spending a few days with Wang Chen whenever they had time. Unfortunately, their reunions were always brief. As flight attendants, their lives were spent shuttling between the clouds and various airports. A week later, Long Lily arrived at Tianmu Palace. The company has been registered. Long Lily organized the documents. in her hands and said, the business license and official seal are here, and your personal seal is also ready. The 100 billion that the company has actually paid has been transferred to the company’s public account under your instructions. The funds from shareholders Wang Sikong and Xinfeng have also been arriving. I’ve also had the office renovated and the computers and some basic equipment have been purchased. The total cost was 3,200,000. Here’s the bill for you to check. If there are no issues, I’ll transfer the money to them. Long Lily rummaged through a pile of documents and handed the relevant bill to Wang Chen. Wang Chen casually took the bill, quickly scanned the details, and nodded slightly, saying, all right, no problem, go ahead and transfer. It’s, after saying that, he placed the bill on the tea table beside him. Okay. Long Lily continued, once the company bylaws are drafted, the company can operate normally. Thank you for your hard work. Wang Chen nodded in response. He reached out to pull Long Lily. Onto his lap, his right hand naturally resting on her silky black stockinged leg, gently caressing it. Long Lily’s face quickly flushed, with a hint of red, and she instinctively shifted her body, saying, It’s not hard at all, these processes look complicated, but I just need to communicate through the industrial and commercial bank. Most of the time, I’m actually quite free. What about the headhunting company? Wang Chen nodded, continuing to stroke her jade-like leg. Long Lily’s legs were already long and straight, and With the black stockings wrapping around them, the texture felt even more delicate and smooth beneath the thin layer of fabric Wang Chen could clearly feel the slightly warm skin of Long Lily. Delicate and full of elasticity. This made Wang Chen increasingly addicted. Unable to extricate himself, Long Lily’s breath hitched and a deeper blush spread across her face. She instinctively squeezed her legs. Together but dared not move too much, fearing it would provoke Wang Chen. They still had to go to the company later. Hmm. Long. Lily awkwardly shifted her body a bit, trying hard to redirect her attention to the documents in front of her. She took a deep breath and continued, the headhunting company provided a list and I’ve done a preliminary screening. Don’t pretend anymore, your stockings are already snagged. Long Lily’s voice trembled slightly as she steadied her nerves and said, when we get to the company, take a look at the list. If you think it’s suitable, I’ll contact them for interviews. Okay. Wang Chan responded nonchalantly. Yet his hands did not stop the actions that left Long Lily in a flurry. Have the headhunting company helped me recruit another batch of employees. The requirements aren’t high, just enough to set up the basic framework of the company first. Wangshin said to Long Lily, the company’s paperwork had all been completed. But for now, it was just an empty shell, let alone managerial talent, the company. Didn’t even have a single basic employee. Hmm, I’ve already discussed the relevant talent with the headhunting company. For mid-level, positions like finance and HR, the headhunting company has also provided a list. You can confirm it together later. thank you for your hard work with your help i feel so much more at ease wang chen gently kissed her cheek and said long lily truly was a private banker so professional whatever wang chen could think of long lily had already taken care of in advance and even the things he hadn’t thought of she had considered for him indeed it was a wise decision for wang chen to have long lily handle the company’s affairs if it were him dealing with it who knows when he would have finished all these tasks with long lily around wang chen’s life was easy and pleasant It didn’t feel busy at all like a startup company. This is what I should do. Long Lily lightly punched Wang Chen’s chest, playfully saying, actually, most of it was done by my colleagues, I just conveyed your requirements to them. Although Long, Lily claimed she was merely relaying his intentions, receiving Wang Chen’s affirmation still made her heart flutter with joy. Let’s leave it at that for now, we’ll handle the rest once the company staff are on board. Wang Chen nodded in satisfaction. There were many things to do in a startup, and everything needed time, Wang Chen wasn’t in a hurry. Shall we go to the company now? Long Lily asked. Sure, I was just thinking about checking how the preparations are going. After Wang Chen finished speaking, he released one arm. That was wrapped around Long Lily. Long Lily hurriedly stood up from Wang Chen’s side, flustered as she tidied her wrinkled clothes, each movement radiating shyness. Wang Chen looked at her adorable appearance and couldn’t help but chuckle. This made Long Lily even more embarrassed, and she shot him a reproachful glare. Wang Chen smiled and walked towards the key storage area by the entrance. It was. an exquisite cabinet made of black walnut wood with a row of luxury car keys hanging inside. His gaze wandered among the keys, landing on the key for the Porsche 918. He hadn’t driven this car since winning it in a lottery. He picked up the key, waited in his hand, and casually tucked it into his pocket. Ding! The system detected that the host spent $3,200,000 with a double cashback of $6,400,000 .Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 320 system points. He arrived at the underground parking garage. A black Porsche 918 was quietly parked there. The streamlined body, the unique low profile of the supercar, and the tech-savvy interior all made his heart race. Wang Chen walked up to the Porsche 918. He pressed the key, and the car door slowly lifted upwards. Long Lily sat in the passenger seat and fastened her seatbelt. Wang Chen pressed the accelerator, and the Porsche 918 shot out like an arrow released from a bow. Soon, they arrived at the central building. Wang Chen parked the car and walked into the elevator with Long Lily, reaching the 118th floor. Pushing open the glass door, they were greeted by a spacious and bright office area. Brand new computers were neatly arranged, and each desk had a small potted green plant, with tender green leaves shimmering with vitality under the soft lighting. On the walls hung several abstract paintings full of artistic flair, adding a touch of liveliness and energy to the office area. The 2600. Square Meter Company finally didn’t feel so empty, it was clear that Long Lily had found a good decoration company. Everything was arranged in an orderly manner. Entering the break area, there were soft sofas paired with several brightly colored cushions, making one want to sink in and relax at first glance. Opposite the sofa was an exquisite coffee corner, an imported coffee machine, a dazzling array of coffee beans, and various delicate coffee cups were neatly displayed in a glass cabinet. Exiting the break area, they walked down a corridor carpeted in deep gray. At the end was Wang Chen’s office. It was also completely refreshed. The reception area, lounge, and restroom were all present. The surface of the desk was spotless, with a super-thin, cutting-edge laptop placed on it. It was also equipped with a sofa and a set of exquisite tea utensils. In the corner there were a few potted green plants. Each leaf was wiped. Clean, layered, and vibrant. Clearly, they had been carefully tended to, otherwise they wouldn’t be so clean. Next to the computer was a small crystal ornament. There were no other employees in the office at the moment and it was obvious that this was all the result of Long Lily’s personal touch. You’ve put in a lot of effort, Wang Chen said, surveying the office. Long Lily smiled lightly, waving her hand and saying, it’s just a small matter. I had some free time, so I arranged this a bit to make your work more comfortable. If you’re not satisfied, I can arrange for someone to redecorate later, she added. It’s fine, Wang Chen nodded and smiled, it looks great already, no need for a redo. What I mentioned last time, have you thought about it? wang chen wrapped his arms around long lily’s slender waist and casually sat down on the sofa whom i haven’t decided yet long lily replied a bit conflicted what’s there to think about why not quit your job at the bank and focus on being my secretary wang chen smiled now you’ve raised my expectations for a secretary quite a bit if you don’t come to be my secretary i wouldn’t know where to find someone who fits my needs like you do with your help i believe my future work will definitely be much easier long lily said rolling her eyes she didn’t care that wang chen was still holding her playfully scolding don’t flatter me you just want to trick me into being your free labor you’re not satisfied with what i’ve given you and are still thinking of exploiting me you naughty boy with your bad thoughts i won’t fall for it she said her cheeks slightly flushed as she gently punched wang chen’s chest her eyes filled with affection who said it was free labor wang chen immediately retorted on the surface you’re my secretary but privately you’re the boss lady having you as my secretary is also so i can be with you every day how wonderful is that and the better the company runs the more you as the boss lady will gain right upon hearing wang chan’s words long lily’s face instantly flushed with a hot blush that spread all the way to her ears the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but curve up slightly as she playfully said you just know how to say sweet things to coax me long lily gently wriggled out of wang chan’s embrace she stood up and walked to the desk taking out a document from her exquisite handbag This is the list of talents provided by the headhunting company. Take a look first. And if you find someone suitable, I’ll send them an interview invitation. Long Lily organized the document and handed it to Wang Chen. There are six candidates in here that I think are quite good, they all have impressive professional backgrounds and meet your requirements. Wang Chen took the document, sat on the sofa, and began flipping through the resumes. Originally, our company is new, so. Attracting these high-end talents is quite challenging. But once the headhunters learned that our capital at Jingtuan Capital is 100 billion, their attitude changed immediately. They proactively reached out to many top talents in the industry, and a lot of them expressed strong interest. A hint of pride flashed in Long Lily’s eyes as the corners of her mouth lifted slightly. Hee hee. Wang. Chen couldn’t help but chuckle. So what if it’s a new company? What investment firms value most is strength, not some ethereal history. Or qualifications. 100 billion in actual capital is the most substantial stepping stone. It’s enough to attract any top talent. Wang Chen leaned back on the sofa, his fingers lightly tapping the armrest as he continued to read the resumes in his hand. Chen Yu, 29 years old. Job Intention, Chief Operating Officer. Graduated from Tsinghua University, Master of Business Administration. Former CEO of the leading industry company, SoftBank. Lin Xia, 30 years old. Job Intention, Human Resources Director. Graduated from Beijing University, Master of Human Resource Management. Former Human Resources Director at Rice Company. Zhang Hui, 35 years old. Job Intention, Marketing Director. Graduated from Fudan University, Master of Marketing. Previously worked at major internet companies, like Alibaba and Tencent. Zhao Yang, 27 years old. Job Intention, Investment Manager. Graduated from MIT, Master of Finance. Previously, served as an investment manager at a well-known private equity fund company. Sun Yuen, 29 years old. Job Intention, Financial. Analyst. Graduated from Renmin University of China, Master of Financial Engineering. Previously worked as a Senior Financial Analyst at a Securities Company. Li Kai, 28 years old. Job Intention, Investment Manager. Graduated from Beijing University, Master of Finance. Previously worked as an Investment Manager at a Financial Company. Wang Chen examined each resume one by one, his expression, gradually becoming focused and serious. These candidates are indeed top talents in the industry. They all graduated from prestigious. Schools, and their qualifications and work experiences are impeccable. Each resume left Wang Chen very satisfied. If possible, he. Wanted to recruit all of them to Jingtu and Capital to serve him. Are these people currently employed? Wang Chen asked Long Lily. A. Hint of contemplation flashed in Long Lily’s eyes, and then she responded methodically, I discussed this in detail with the headhunting. Company. Except for Chen Yu, who is currently employed, the others are all unemployed. Wang Chen nodded. He wasn’t surprised. People strive for higher positions, just as water flows downward. In ordinary companies, employees pursue better treatment and choose to switch jobs, not to mention these top talents. Although their previous experiences were at renowned companies for truly ambitious talents, the potential and development space of a platform are far more important than current stability. Jingtuon Capital, although just established, holds 100 billion in actual capital and its strength is beyond doubt. This is undoubtedly an attractive golden signboard, enough to entice them. As for the one who is currently employed, is his development limited in his current company? Long. Lily quickly flipped through the materials in her hand and replied, Xinyu has already reached the position of chief operating officer at his original company and there isn’t much room for advancement. Moreover, recent personnel changes within the company have left him. Feeling somewhat powerless, he is also considering a more challenging work environment. Hearing this, Wang Jin said to Long Lily, you should contact them and see if they can come for an interview now. If they can, have them come right away, the interview will. Be in my office. Now. Long Lily said, somewhat surprised. Isn’t that a bit rushed? And I haven’t had time to prepare detail. Company information and the interview process. It’s fine, let’s do it this way. These top talents are already scarce, and opportunities. Are fleeting. I just want to get a preliminary understanding of their thoughts and abilities, everything else is not important. Wang Chen raised his hand to check the time. It was only 10 in the morning, so there was plenty of time for the interview. Alright, I’ll contact them now, Long Lily said as she walked out of the office. She arrived at the front desk, picked up the company phone, and began to contact each of these individuals one by one. 25 minutes later, Long Lily walked back in. I’ve contacted all of. Them, aside from Chunyu, the others have indicated they are available and can come for the interview right now. Whom, the fastest, should arrive in about half an hour. Li Kai is handling some matters and will arrive in about an hour and a half. Chunyu, since he. is still employed, needs to ask for leave from his company, so he will be a bit later, probably around 2 or 3 in the afternoon. Wang Chen nodded, indicating he understood. It was a last-minute notice for the interview, and the fastest could arrive in half an hour, which was already quite quick. Waiting a little longer was no problem. After all, it was a two-way selection. Top talents are hard to come by. The ruler chooses the subjects, and the subjects also choose their ruler. Such talents often look down on ordinary companies, and have extremely high demands. Half an hour later. The phone at the front desk suddenly rang. Long Lily trembled slightly in. Wang Chen’s arms, slowly opening her eyes as if waking from a dream, her gaze still lingering with a hint of daze and reluctance. Long Lily cast a flirtatious glance at Wang Chen, reluctantly rising from his embrace. She tidied her slightly messy hair and tugged at her clothes, trying to make herself look more presentable. Then, Long Lily took a deep breath, stopping Wang Chen’s hand from causing further mischief, and walked towards the front desk. Hello, this is Whale Capital. A few minutes later. Long Lily walked back in. She gently closed the office door and quickly walked over to sit beside Wang Chen. Long Lily said seriously, Zhang Hui has arrived at the central building and is registering downstairs, calculating the time he should be close to the company entrance now. Should I have him come in directly for the interview or, when he arrives, just have him come directly to my office? Wang Chen nodded, leaning slightly back against the sofa. His fingers rhythmically tapped on the armrest of the sofa as he quickly sorted through the information. about Zhang Hui in his mind. Hmm, let me tidy up a bit, Long Lily said, taking out her lipstick from her bag to touch up her makeup. Since there was still time, she gently applied it in front of a small mirror. The lipstick that Wang Chen had taken from her during their kiss earlier was now being reapplied, making her lips look exquisite and full again. After finishing with the lipstick, she took out some powder and lightly pressed it onto her cheeks to set her makeup. Then she pulled out a sealed pair of black stockings from her bag and changed into them. She also tidied up her slightly messy hair, tucking a few strands behind her ears. Instantly, she transformed back into the polished and capable image of a professional woman. No wonder you’re my secretary, you always manage to maintain a perfect state, Wang Chen said, looking at Long Lily and nodding slightly, casting an approving glance. Long Lily’s lips curled up, revealing a faint smile. Isn’t this about representing the company’s image? We have to be mindful at all times. She then walked out of the office to greet the interviewee. After a while, there was a knock on Wang Chen’s office door. Come in, Wang Chen said. Long Lily pushed the door open followed by a middle-aged man. He was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, slightly plump, and had black framed glasses. Mr. Wang, the interviewee has arrived, Long Lily said seriously as she stood in front of Wang Chen. Wang Chen found her demeanor amusing and couldn’t help but wink at her, his eyes full of teasing, as if to say, why so serious all of a sudden? Long Lily struggled to suppress her smile, almost breaking character. She felt a bit helpless. Most of the time, Wang Chen displayed a calmness that was not typical for someone his age. Long Lily had always felt led by the nose in their interactions. The maturity and composure Wang Chen exhibited firmly attracted Long Lily, but occasionally, his childlike side made her feel particularly close to him. Just like now, her effort to maintain professionalism was almost undone by Wang Chen. Fortunately, he merely winked at her before, quickly regaining his serious expression and shifting his attention to the interviewee, Zhang Hui. This made Long Lily breathe a sigh of. relief. Wang Chen stood up, extended his hand, and said, Hello, welcome to Jingtuan Capital for the interview. I am Wang Chen, please, take a seat. Hello, Mr. Wang, I am Zhang Hui. Thank you very much for this interview opportunity, Zhang Hui hurriedly stepped forward. To shake Wang Chen’s hand, slightly bowing, there was a hint of surprise in Zhang Hui’s gaze. He had researched the company before. Coming, although it was newly registered, it had a paid-in capital of 100 billion. The strength was formidable, and the bosses. Background was extraordinary. Many people in Modu were paying attention to Jingtuan Capital, speculating about who the boss behind it was, to have such audacity to have a paid in capital of 100 billion. Zhang Hui had been guessing before he arrived, but he never expected that the boss of Jingtuan Capital would be so young. Once they were seated, Wang Chen looked Zhang Hui up and down. He noticed that although Zhang Hui was slightly plump, there was a steadiness and ambition in his eyes. That ambition was not reckless. but rather a readiness based on years of professional experience just waiting for the right opportunity to burst forth. I’ve looked. Over your information, you’re 35 this year and you look quite young, can’t tell at all, Wang Chen said with a slight smile, breaking the silence. The seemingly casual remark subtly closed the distance between them. At the same time, he was quietly observing. Zhang Hui’s reaction. Zhang Hui was slightly taken aback but quickly understood and smiled in response, saying, Mr. Wang, you flatter. Me. Perhaps it’s because I’ve been through a lot in the workplace over the years, my mindset remains youthful, and I also pay attention. To exercise and maintenance, so I don’t look my age. Mr. Wang is the young one, achieving so much at such a young age, with Jing Tuan. Capitals paid in capital of 100 billion, creating such a stir in Modu’s financial circle, is truly admirable, he replied. Neither humble nor arrogant. He cleverly diffused the slight awkwardness of mentioning age while subtly showcasing his positive attitude. Towards life. He also managed to compliment Wang Chen just right. His words expressed respect for Wang Chen’s abilities and decisiveness. Without coming off as sycophantic, Wang Chen’s smile grew wider and his first impression of Zhang Hui improved further. This Zhang Hui had high emotional intelligence and quick reactions, if his abilities matched he could be a valuable asset to the team. However, he maintained a calm demeanor. Long Lily served the prepared tea to both of them and then left the office, gently closing the door. Wang Chen took a sip of the tea then he said to Zhang Hui, Zhang Hui, let’s get straight to the point. graduated from Fudan University. You have held executive positions at major internet companies like Alibaba and Tencent. You once reached the position of marketing director and you resigned from Alibaba this August, remaining unemployed since then. Yes, Zhang Hui. Affirmed. What was the reason? Working at a major internet company like Alibaba is certainly better than coming to our Jing2 and Capital. After a moment of silence, Zhang Hui said, to be honest, I was optimized at my last company. Alibaba’s business adjustments. and strategic contractions affected my department and the entire business line was cut, leaving me to seek other opportunities. Wang Chin nodded slightly, saying, job changes are common, this is the norm in industry development. However, being able to reach the position of marketing director at Alibaba, I believe your abilities must be solid. Wang Chin paused, looking intently at Zhang Hui. Our Jing Tuon Capital is currently in a rapid development phase and is eager for talent. Your extensive experience in internet marketing is exactly what we need. So, welcome to join us at Jing Tuon Capital. Thank you very much for your recognition, Mr. Wang. Rest assured, I will devote all my energy and effort to the job and will not let you down. Surprise and emotion surged in Zhang Hui’s eyes as he slightly bowed and said sincerely. Wang Chen nodded slightly, in that case, let’s not beat around the bush. The position of marketing director is yours. Zhang Hui straightened his back, overjoyed, and responded without hesitation, Mr. Wang, thank you for your trust. I will not let you down. Next, I will quickly familiarize myself with the company’s business and start formulating a comprehensive marketing plan. Good, I hope you live up to my expectations, Wang Chen said lightly, otherwise, you might not hold this director position for long. Zhang Hui’s heart sank, and the joy on his face instantly faded. He nodded solemnly and said with determination, Mr. Wang, you can rest assured. I will hold myself to the highest standards. If I don’t do well, you won’t need to say anything, I will voluntarily give up this director position. Alright, you said it yourself. Wang Chen’s expression softens slightly, now let’s talk about your annual salary. Considering your rich experience and outstanding resume in marketing, we are offering an annual salary of 2 million. This 2 million is divided into two parts, 800,000 is the base salary, which will be paid out evenly, over 12 months to cover your daily living expenses. The remaining 1 ,200,000 will be performance-based, distributed according to quarterly assessment results. Upon hearing this, Jung Huey’s heart jolted, and although he tried to maintain. Calm on his face, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. The salary level far exceeded his expectations. In the fiercely competitive job market of the Magic City, it was undoubtedly a very sincere offer. Zhang Hui took a deep breath, striving to calm his excitement. He revealed a humble and grateful smile, saying, Mr. Wang, this treatment really took me by surprise, and I can feel the company’s sincerity. I am truly honored to receive your recognition. Good, as long as you’re satisfied, money is not an issue as long as you have. Real skills, Wang Chen said lightly, when can you start working? Anytime, Zhang Hui straightened his back, his eyes filled with determination and eagerness, Mr. Wang, I can’t wait to start working immediately. Great, you can go sign the contract now, starting. Today is no problem, right? Wang Chen said, absolutely no problem. Then go outside and find my secretary, she will take you to sign the contract. Okay, Mr. Wang. Zhang Hui stood up and walked steadily toward the office door. The moment he opened the door, he let out a sigh of relief. The pressure of being unemployed for months instantly vanished, instead, there was a sense of relief and an infinite yearning for the future of capital expansion. Mr. Wang, the interviewees have arrived. Long Lily knocked on the office door again. Following her were Zhao Yang, Lin Xia, and Sun Yuan. For these three, Wang Chen had decided to take them all in. As for their specific positions, he would assign them appropriate roles and treatment once the company was running smoothly. What mattered most to him now was to establish the framework of the company, the more people, the better. Lin Sia and Sun Yuen, attracted by Wang Chen’s promise of managerial positions and salaries above the industry standard, did not hesitate and decided to join the company. Only Zhao Yang was not too satisfied with the current state of the company and chose to leave. Wang Chen watched Zhao Yang’s departing figure feeling a bit regretful in his heart, but he did not insist. He was preparing to continue pondering the recruitment, planned to bring in more talent. Suddenly, the office door was pushed open and Wang Sikong and Qin Feng walked in. Wang Sikong plopped. Down on the sofa, crossing his legs and said, Wang Chen, I heard you started hiring, it’s quite lively here. It’s alright, Wang Chen. Stood up with a smile to greet them, there are only a few people in the company right now, and you, as shareholders, don’t even come to help out. Wang Sikong immediately sat up straight, patting his chest and said, hey, you say that, but we’re here now. Let me tell you, I have experience in hiring. Just look at those executives from big companies, if they want someone, they just throw money at them. If they don’t want to leave, there’s no way to poach them. Wang Chen’s face darkened at these words. What kind of experience is? That. Wang Chen rubbed his chin, pondering for a moment. It seemed that throwing money might not be a bad idea. After all, he had plenty of money to spare. In the early stages of the company, when it had no reputation, this could be a good approach. Xinfen, seeing Wang Chen deep in thought, spoke up, old Wang, although this idea is simple and crude, if you think about it. It does make sense. However, having money alone isn’t enough, we also need to provide positions and space for people to showcase their talents. Upon hearing this, Wang Sikong became animated again, saying excitedly, of course, positions are up for grabs, projects can be led freely, as long as they can bring benefits to the company, we’ll give them whatever they want. Wang Chen smiled and said. Alright, since we’ve decided to use this method, we need to have a detailed target list. You have a wide network, so start by listing those influential executives in the industry and see who we can attract. Leave this to me, I’ll have someone investigate as soon as I get back. Wang Sikong said confidently. Shinfen added, I’ll contact some headhunter friends to help keep an eye out for suitable candidates. With multiple approaches, we’ll definitely be able to dig up a lot of talent. Then I’ll trouble you too. Once the list is out, we’ll discuss how to approach these people and what conditions to offer. By the way, we can’t just focus on executives. For recruitment, grassroots employees are also very important. We need to ensure we can find suitable talent for all positions. Wang Chen nodded in agreement. This old Wang, usually seeming unreliable, is quite clever at critical moments. With this, his initial workload was basically eliminated and the remaining tasks could be handed over to the newly hired HR manager. Wang Chen only needed to make the final decisions. Mr. Wang, Li Kai has arrived. Long Lily looked at the open door and walked in directly. Following her was a young man in his 20s, wearing a somewhat faded grey suit. He paired it with a light blue shirt, the collar slightly yellowed, and The cuffs had some wrinkles but the buttons were still neatly fastened, meticulously maintained, although the style is classic. The slight wear at the corners of the clothes reveals his current financial struggles. As soon as he stepped into the office, Li Kai’s gaze was instantly drawn to Wang Sikong and Qin Fun. As a professional in the financial industry, he immediately recognized these two well-known rich second -generation individuals from the internet. Before he could collect his thoughts, his eyes met Wang Chen’s. He was. momentarily taken aback and then his eyes slightly reddened as he excitedly said, Brother Wang, it’s really you. I finally get to see you again. Long Lily looked a bit surprised and couldn’t help but glance at Wang Chen. Li Kai couldn’t hide his gratitude and quickly stepped forward, saying, Brother Wang, do you remember me? Before, my wife needed 30 ,000 for her surgery, and it was you who lent it to me. You are Li Kai. Wang Chen exclaimed, both surprised and delighted, as he patted his shoulder hard and said, Goodness, I thought it was just a namesake when I saw your name on the resume. How’s Meng Meng? And how is your wife’s health now? His mind was instantly pulled back to two months ago. At that time, Li Kai had a face full of anxiety and helplessness, working part-time, selling balloons on the bun to raise money for his wife’s surgery, a scene still vivid in his memory. Wang Chen clearly remembered that his daughter was named Meng Meng. That adorable face was still imprinted in his mind. Li Kai took a deep breath trying to calm his. excited heart and said brother wang my wife has recovered quite well she has been discharged and is resting at home now mang mang is still the same but sometimes she insists on seeing the handsome brother upon hearing this wang chen’s face broke into a comforting smile as he said that’s good as long as she’s okay that’s what matters does mang mang still remember me li kai scratched his head a bit embarrassed and said she definitely remembers she talks about you every day saying she wants to thank the handsome brother who saved her mom Wang Chen chuckled and teased, that little mouth is really sweet. Brother Wang, last time you transferred. The money in left without even adding contact information, Li Kai expressed his gratitude. I’ve been wanting to find a chance to thank you in person, but in such a vast crowd, I had no idea where to start. Don’t worry, I won’t mention that 30,000. Again, Wang Chen waved his hand and said, I never thought about having you pay it back when I helped you back then. Now that your wife is healthy and your family is safe, I consider that money well spent. At this moment, Wang Sikong, who had been standing aside, Couldn’t contain his curiosity and asked with a gossiping expression, Wang Chen, what’s going on here? Your story is quite touching. Hurry. Up and tell us. Yeah, do share. Xinfen nodded in agreement, his eyes full of curiosity. I’m curious too, Mr. Wang, please tell. Us, Long Lily chimed in, blinking her big eyes. Wang Chen smiled and recounted how he had met Li Kai on the bun two months ago, when he was working part-time selling balloons to raise money for his wife’s surgery and how he had given him 30,000. After. Listening, Wang Sikong couldn’t help but give a thumbs up. Wang Chen, you handled this beautifully. If it were me, I would definitely. Help too. Wonderful wonderful so wonderful. Today, Li Kai came to our company for an interview, isn’t this fate? Xinfin shook his. Head, still marveling. As he finished speaking, Xinfin seemed to suddenly remember something, his gaze darting back and forth between. Wang Chen and Long Lily, and he curiously asked, Wang Chen, who is this? Wang Chen smiled and introduced directly, this is Long Lily. My girlfriend and also my secretary. Lily, this is Wang Sikong and Xinfen, I believe you know them as well, they are shareholders of our company. As soon as Wang Chen said this, Xinfen’s gaze towards Long Lily immediately became more restrained. A hint of surprise flashed across his face, and then he smiled at Wang Chen, saying, wow, you really are something. You kept it well hidden, such a beautiful girlfriend, and she’s your secretary too, balancing work and romance. Wang Sikong’s eyes widened in disbelief, I really can’t believe you, man. Is being handsome really that appealing to girls? Wang Sikong looked utterly disheartened last time Wang Chen was. At the bar, he brought along such a beautiful girlfriend, and now it’s another one. After years of navigating through the flower beds, although there were many beautiful women around him, most were just internet celebrities with surgically enhanced faces. Those girls who approached him were more driven by a desire for wealth than genuine affection. However, in Long Lily’s gaze towards Wang Chen, there was an unmistakable love that she couldn’t hide. This made Wang Sikong feel increasingly uncomfortable. He couldn’t help but let. out a long sigh wang sikhong slumped on the sofa looking dejected as he said i finally understand all those so-called peach blossoms from before were just fleeting moments looking at the way lily looks at you i now know what true affection is wang chen smiled and walked over to wang sikhong handing him a bottle of water saying old wang matters of the heart can’t be rushed don’t just focus on superficial things try to meet some decent girls and maybe fate will come knocking i hope so wang sikhong sighed deeply, then suddenly became serious, saying, it’s important to meet decent girls, but, we can’t waste the bad girls either. As soon as Wang Sikhong said this, Qin Fen almost spat out the mouthful of water he had just taken. Cough cough. He coughed a few. Times, wide-eyed as he looked at Wang Sikhong, I say, old one, can you think normally for once? You were just acting like you had. Turned over a new leaf, how come you’re back to these crooked ideas? Wang Chen smiled helplessly, sitting back down in his chair, pointing. At Wang Sikhong, it’s easy to change the landscape, but hard to change one’s nature. Still thinking about not letting good girls go while not wasting bad ones, your mindset is really something. Tong Zushi only came to this realization after 23 years. Wang Sikong. Truly is a top tier second generation, already having such high awareness of life. Truly impressive. Wang Sikong spread his hands. Innocently and said, I was just joking, look how tense you all are. By the way, would you waste any? No way, Qin Fen shook his. Head repeatedly. Seeing Qin Fen shake his head, Wang Sikong turned his gaze to Wang Chen. He raised an eyebrow and asked, what about, you, Wang Chen? Wang Chen chuckled lightly and replied seriously, of course not. Hahaha Wang Sikhong threw his head back and, laughed, mocking, alright then, I guess I asked in vain, I knew you two weren’t upright gentlemen. Long Lily stood beside Wang Chen, still in a daze, completely unaware of what they were talking about. She never expected Wang Chen would admit to being her boyfriend. Before getting involved with Wang Chen, Long Lily already knew he had a girlfriend, and not just one. But in the end, she couldn’t. Resist Wang Chen’s allure. Wang Chen was handsome, tall, and exuded a unique charisma. During their frequent interactions, combined with her own desires, she found herself in a half-push, half-pull situation with Wang Chen. This relationship was inherently different from that of a normal couple. She didn’t expect Wang Chen to give her a title. In front of others, she always tried to maintain a distance from Wang Chen, afraid to show any signs of crossing boundaries, terrified that others would see the secret and special relationship between them. She initially thought that when Wang Chen referred to her as the boss lady in private, it was just a joke to make her happy. Long Lily didn’t take it seriously at all. But now, Wang Chen had openly acknowledged their relationship in front of everyone. Not only did he give her a title but it also elevated her status within the company. The status of the boss lady. This changed everything. The underground romance between a secretary and her boss couldn’t be exposed. But now, she was Wang Chen’s officially acknowledged. Girlfriend. This identity instantly placed Long Lily in the spotlight. Feeling the gazes of everyone around her, looking at Wang Chen’s handsome face, her heart was filled with emotion. Her eyes instantly glistened and a layer of tears quickly gathered at the bottom. Of her eyes, but worried about embarrassing Wang Chen, she could only hold back her tears and force a smile. She took a deep breath, trying to appear calm and composed. However, her slightly trembling shoulders betrayed her inner tension and excitement. Wang Chen keenly sensed Long Lily’s emotions. He subtly moved closer to her, wrapping his arms around her waist. Then he gently held her hand. Softly caressing her palm, Wang Chen changed the subject and said to Li Kai, stop standing, let’s sit down and talk. Brother Wang, congratulations on finding such a good girlfriend, you two look perfect together, Li Kai said, feeling a bit awkward as he sat on the sofa beside them. Wang Chen smiled and nodded in thanks. He then turned to Li Kai, his expression becoming serious, Li Kai, since. You’re here for an interview today, I want to set aside our previous friendship and discuss things purely from a work perspective. I see your job intention is for the position of investment manager? Upon hearing this, Li Kai straightened up, the awkwardness on his face instantly replaced by seriousness. He nodded slightly, his gaze firm as he replied, Yes, General Manager Wang, I am passionate about the investment manager position and believe I have the capability to excel in it. After listening to Li Kai’s detailed explanation of his past project experiences, investment strategies, and risk management, the appreciation in Wang Chan’s eyes became increasingly evident. After consulting with Wang Sikong and Xinfen, he smiled and nodded, saying, very good, congratulations on joining. Jingtu and Capital, we have decided to hire you as the company’s investment manager. The base annual salary for the investment manager. Position is 800,000, and the subsequent earnings will depend on your performance. Li Kai’s eyes instantly turned slightly red upon. Hearing this news, emotions of excitement and gratitude surging within him. He swallowed hard, suppressing the turmoil inside, and with awe. Voice slightly choked yet incredibly firm, he said, General Manager Wang, I truly thank you for giving me this opportunity. Joining. Jingtuan Capital is an incredibly precious starting point for my career. Thank you for your recognition. He calmed his emotions. Slightly, stood up, and bowed slightly. Wang Chen smiled and stood up, extending his hand to shake Li Kai’s firmly, welcome aboard. From now on, we are all family, no need to be so polite. Li Kai looked at Wang Chen, sincerity filling his eyes as he said, General. Manager Wang, during my most difficult times, it was you who extended a helping hand, and now you have given me this job. I cannot repay. Your kindness. From now on, I will do my utmost to contribute to the development of Jingtuan Capital and live up to your trust. Wang. Sikong also leaned over, patting Li Kai on the shoulder, saying, kid, work hard, follow us, and your future will be bright. Xin. Fan nodded with a smile, looking forward to your performance. You can go handle the onboarding procedures now, Wang Chen said. Nodding. Li Kai’s eyes were red, and he nodded solemnly, his voice carrying a hint of choking. Okay, General Manager Wang, I will go. Right away. At noon, 12 o’clock, Wang Chan and a few others were on the third floor of the central building, enjoying a meal from a well-known local restaurant in the city. The unique flavor of rich oil and red sauce spread across their tongues, adding. A strong Shanghai flair to the lunch. The five of them spent a total of 6,880 yuan on the meal. After eating, Wang Sikong and Qin Fun left first. Li Kai wanted to stay and help at the company but Wang Chin waved his hand telling him to come back to work tomorrow and to go home to take care of the sick and the child first. Li Kai was extremely grateful and hurriedly left after thanking them repeatedly. Wang Chin and Long Lily returned to the company side by side and along the way, Long Lily felt particularly sweet. Back at the company, Wang Chin took Long Lily’s hand and led her to his private break room. As soon as they entered, Long Lily turned around, actively, wrapping her arms around Wang Chin’s neck and kissing his lips. Her kiss was passionate and urgent, filled with long-accumulated love and joy, her soft lips trembling slightly to IT seemed to express the emotions deep within, like a volcanic eruption. Wang Chen was momentarily taken aback but soon ignited by her passion, he wrapped his arms tightly around her waist, pulling her into his embrace and deepening the kiss. Their breaths gradually quickened and Wang Chen’s kiss traveled from her lips down to her cheeks, then to her neck, causing Long Lily to shiver gently, letting out a soft whimper. It was unclear how long they lingered like this before slowly parting. Long Lily’s cheeks were flushed, resembling a ripe apple, her eyes misty with a layer of warmth, gazing at Wang Chen with love. Horror. Chest rose and fell slightly as she softly said, Wang Chen, I really love you so much. Thank you for making me the happiest person in the world today. Wang Chen raised his hand, gently wiping away the tears that had spilled from the corners of her eyes due to excitement, his voice deep and tender. Baby, I love you too. I want to. Long Lily’s eyes sparkled, her watery gaze fixed on Wang. Chen. No longer hesitating, Wang Chen scooped Long Lily up and headed towards the bed. She let out a soft gasp, instinctively tightening. Her arms around his neck, her legs curling up slightly. Three o’clock in the afternoon. Company break room. Wang Chen. Picked up his cup and took a sip of tea, and said to the man in front of him, Why don’t you introduce yourself first? Chen Yu stood. Tall, a calm and confident smile on his face. He spoke with neither humility nor arrogance. Hello, Mr. Wang. My name is Chen Yu, I am 29. Years old. I graduated from Tsinghua University with a master’s degree in business administration. I have served as COO at a leading company in the industry, SoftBank. Over the past few years, I have led the strategic planning and execution of several major projects at SoftBank. From your resume, it seems you joined SoftBank right after graduation, and your performance has been remarkable over the years. Logically, you should have been promoted to general manager, but now you are here interviewing with us at Jing2 and Capital. Wang Chen looked at Chen Yu with curiosity. Chen Yu fell silent. Can you tell me the reason? After a moment of silence, Chen. Yang replied to Wang Chen, actually, it’s nothing much, just some colleague’s exclusion. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow slightly, signaling him to continue. Chen Yu took a deep breath and slowly said, at SoftBank, the projects I led achieved good results, but perhaps, my brilliance caused some dissatisfaction among colleagues. What’s worse, during the promotion evaluation, those who were undermining. me joined forces to distort my work achievements in front of the leadership, claiming I was too radical and disregarded the overall interests of the company. Clearly, they were the ones making small moves behind the scenes, yet they painted me as someone who didn’t fit in and didn’t understand teamwork. Chen Yu shook his head with a bitter smile, over time, my situation in the company became increasingly difficult. Even if I was capable, it was hard to showcase my talents. He lifted his head, looking firmly at Wang. Chen, Mr. Wang, I will be 30 this year. At this age, one becomes increasingly aware of the preciousness of time and opportunity. I no longer want to waste my energy on meaningless workplace infighting. Instead, I yearn to find a platform where I can truly showcase my talents and carve out a new path for my career. Chen Yu chuckled self -deprecatingly. I studied business administration in college, and I understand those famous investment figures in the world who have created countless legendary stories in the capital market. You might think I am a bit of an idealist, but my life goal is to become such a person. Wang Chen nodded slightly, a glimmer. Of approval in his eyes, it is rare to have such thoughts. I do not see you as an idealist. Chen used previously tense shoulders. Relaxed instantly, Mr. Wang, thank you for your understanding and recognition. He took a deep breath and continued, later, after graduating from university, the first company I joined was SoftBank. The events that followed were completely different from what I had imagined. As a newcomer, I had neither the ability nor the qualifications to decide which company to invest in, even when I later became. The chief operating officer, my work was filled with constraints and helplessness. I was in pain, every day I was busy, yet I was only dealing with trivial and meaningless matters. So, while I still consider myself young, I want to be a little willful this time. A smile appeared on Chen Yu’s face, his eyes filled with determination as he said, as the saying goes, people strive for higher ground, while water flows downward. I don’t want to continue wasting my days at SoftBank until I see your company. Whale Capital Registered. and immediately paid in over 10 billion. Such strength and scale are indeed rare and enough to excite me. I came for this interview to give myself a chance. Wang Chen slightly raised the corners of his mouth and nodded. The investment industry is quite special. There is no so-called midlife crisis. Instead, the older you get, the more sought after you become. The more projects you handle, the more experience you accumulate, which proves your outstanding ability. It is quite normal for a high-end talent like Chen Yu, unwilling to be buried at SoftBank to come to Whale Capital. What position are you applying for? Wang Chen asked directly. I’m not sure if there’s a candidate for the general manager position at your company? Not at the moment. Chen you confidently replied, I believe that my rich experience accumulated at SoftBank, along with my keen market insight and strategic planning abilities, are sufficient to qualify me for this position. Moreover, I am only 30 this year and I have the energy and capability to tackle high-intensity work. Challenges Wang Chen lightly tapped the table, pondering for a moment before saying, you just mentioned that you have never been solely responsible for anything. How can I trust you with the general manager position? Chen Yu’s expression stiffened, and he responded without hesitation, Mr. Wang, although I have not held the title of general manager before, during my time as CO at SoftBank, the scope of my responsibilities has already exceeded mere operational management. Furthermore, I have been deeply involved in investment. projects, personally leading several companies to IPO, achieving successful listings and doubling their stock value on the first day. Very impressive, but still not enough, Wang Chen said lightly. The general manager position is too important for the company. I cannot always be at the company overseeing everything. The investment industry is ever-changing. A single misstep in decision-making could lead to significant losses for the company. Whale Capital has just been established and is in a critical period of rapid development. It needs a leader who can comprehensively control the situation with enough courage and wisdom to lead. Upon hearing this, Chen Yu thought for a moment and gritted his teeth, saying, I can sign a long-term contract with the company, I can forgo my salary, and my income can be entirely performance -based. Whether it’s a lot or a little depends entirely on my ability. Wang Chen opened his true vision to look at Chen Yu. Name, Chen Yu, Age, 29, Height, 175cm, Charm, 83, Physique, 78, Favorability, 50, Skills, Indith. Industry insight, precise risk assessment, strategic investment planning, crisis public relations handling, seeing these skills, Wang Chen nodded inwardly. These skills are like a precise business operation system, complementing each other, giving Chen Yu comprehensive competitiveness in the investment field. The skills he possesses are exactly the kind of talent Wang Chen needs. Among these candidates, Wang Chen was already inclined towards Chen Yu for the position of general manager. After all, he had been at SoftBank for so long and had reached the position of COO. There were no issues with his abilities, and his education and experience were nearly perfect. How could Wang Chen let go of such top talent? What he said earlier was just to further test Chen Yu’s determination. He never expected Chen Yu to be so ruthless with himself, even willing to forgo his salary, this made Wang Chen feel a bit guilty, was this too capitalist? Wang Chen stood up and extended his hand to Chen Yu, saying, welcome to whale capital. A flash of surprise and excitement crossed. Chen Yu’s eyes as he quickly got up and tightly grasped Wang Chen’s hand, saying, thank you for your recognition, President Wang. When can you start working? Wang Chen asked. Give me a week, I’ll go back and resign immediately. Chen Yu felt a long lost surge. Of passion. The feeling of being trusted and entrusted with important responsibilities made him eager to dive into work right away. Alright, first sign the contract and you can start after you resign, Wang Chen nodded and said. Don’t worry, President Wang, I will. Wrap up my work at SoftBank as soon as possible and take up my position, Chen Yu replied. Wang Chen had Long Lily bring the contract. After carefully reviewing it, Chen Yu signed his name. I won’t shortchange you, it wouldn’t be fair not to give you a salary. 4. Now, I’ll give you a 1 million annual salary and as for the bonuses and other benefits, it will depend on your own abilities, Wang. Chen patted Chen Yu’s shoulder and said. In Magic City, a general manager in the financial sector with a million annual salary is considered relatively low. Some senior investment managers can earn several million or even tens of millions annually. Wang Chen wouldn’t. Start Chen Yu off with an exorbitant salary. After all, salary growth needs to match performance and ability. But at the same time, a company that is stingy with its subordinates is destined not to last long. As long as Chen Yu achieves results, what’s wrong with Wang? Chen offering him a salary that exceeds industry standards? Rest assured, President Wang, I will give it my all and not let you down. Chen Yu was somewhat moved. He proactively suggested not to take a salary, letting the company’s profits determine how much he would earn. He thought Wang Chen would agree to this but unexpectedly he was still offered a million annual salary. Those in this line of work are all capitalists and he clearly understood the ruthlessness of capital. In Chen Yu’s perception capitalists are mostly meticulous and prioritize profit above all. Yet Wang Chen still offered a decent annual salary which not only recognized his abilities but also represented a rare respect and trust. Chen Yu then took a deep breath calmed his emotions and left the company the next day around noon. In the Huangpu district of Magic City, at the Four Seasons He Mansion, Wang Chen parked his car at the entrance, entered the elevator, and went to the fifth floor. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, a server in a black uniform immediately approached. With a smile, walking briskly towards him, she slightly bowed and respectfully said, Sir, welcome to Four Seasons He Mansion. Do you have a reservation? Yes, I believe it’s for Ruashan Pavilion, Wang Chen nodded slightly. The server quickly checked the reservation. book her smile growing wider as she straightened up and made an elegant gesture saying all right this way please the server led the way her high heels making almost no sound on the soft carpet wang chen followed leisurely behind casually surveying his surroundings his gaze lingered for a moment on a painting of a summer lotus pond the blooming lotus flowers in the painting were lifelike and the lotus leaves swayed in the wind as if one could hear the croaking of frogs he nodded slightly and murmured this painting indeed matches the restaurant’s name spring all year round President Wang has a good eye, these are famous paintings related to the. For seasons that our boss specifically collected, hoping to create an immersive dining experience for guests, awakening your senses. From vision to smell, the server responded with a smile upon hearing this. As they spoke, they arrived at the entrance of Rue Xiang. Pavilion. The server gently pushed open the private room door and a soothing classical music flowed out, intertwining with the subtle. Scent of sandalwood inside. As soon as Wang Chen stepped into the room, he saw Li Xiang getting up from his chair. With a beaming smile. He quickly approached, opening his arms enthusiastically, Wang Chen, you finally made it. Li Xiang had a round figure, and his smile squinted his already small eyes into two slits. His well-tailored suit was filled out perfectly, yet it couldn’t hide the innate charm. He exuded. Before Wang Chen could respond, Li Xiang turned to the woman behind him and brought her forward, saying, come, let me introduce you. This is my sister, Li Meng. Meng Meng, this is Wang Chen, the one I’ve often mentioned to you. Wang Chen’s gaze naturally fell on Li Meng. She was tall, with long, straight legs. Her waist was slender, and the fitted white dress perfectly outlined her graceful curves. The dress featured an exquisite square neckline that slightly revealed her fair collarbone, standing nearly 1 .7 meters. Tall and wearing a pair of silver high heels, her long, shiny black hair cascaded casually over her shoulders, with a few strands, framing her fair cheeks, enhancing her snow -like complexion. Her large, bright eyes had a slight upward tilt at the corners, carrying a hint of innate pride. Below her prominent nose was a cherry red mouth that was currently pursed, seemingly expressing a bit of dissatisfaction. Name, Li Meng Age, 22 height, 169cm charm, 94 physique, 83 favorability, 56 skills, advanced equestrian, jewelry, appraisal, advanced driving. Li Meng had initially been reluctant to join her brother for this dinner, but the moment she saw Wang Chan, her gaze was drawn to his tall and handsome figure. The slight resistance in her heart dissipated almost instantly. Hello. Due to her proud nature, she merely nodded slightly. Her voice was crisp and pleasant, yet carried a hint of deliberate aloofness. Wang Chen keenly noticed the fleeting oddity in Li Meng’s eyes and paid no mind to her intentional coldness. He simply nodded and politely greeted her, Miss Li, hello. Is this your biological sister? Wang Chen looked at the chubby guy with some confusion. The disparity was too great, one looked like a flower, while the other was round and plump, making it hard not to think otherwise. A hundred percent. Biological sister, I’m just a bit chubby. Li Xiang chuckled awkwardly while ushering everyone to take their seats. Don’t just. Stand there, sit down quickly. He turned to the nearby waiter and said, you can serve the dishes now. Everyone took their seats. Wang Chen sat at the main seat at the invitation of the chubby guy. Li Meng wanted to sit next to her brother but was pulled to sit. Beside Wang Chen instead. Meng Meng, you sit here, you young people should communicate more. A hint of embarrassment flashed across Li Meng’s face, but she couldn’t express her displeasure and could only sit down reluctantly. Her heart, however, inexplicably raced. The waiters entered in succession, bringing exquisite dishes to the table. Steamed little lobster with hua-diao egg white. Roast duck from Yi. Fu. Steamed crab with black pork. Steamed sea grouper. Lotus seed and lily soup with snow fungus. Cherry bilyuowa. Li Xiang beamed with a smile, enthusiastically introducing, this steamed little lobster with hua-diao egg white is their signature. Dish. The little lobsters are caught fresh from the deep sea in the morning, incredibly fresh. He picked up the serving chopsticks. and placed a large piece of shrimp meat on both Wang Chen’s and Li Meng’s plates. The tender shrimp lay atop the glistening egg white, surrounded by green scallions and golden crab roe, with steam carrying the rich aroma of Hua Dio wine wafting through the air. Wang Chen nodded in thanks, savoring it before praising, it’s indeed excellent, the meat is firm and bouncy, and the fragrance of the Hua Dio wine is perfectly infused, just right. Li Meng stole a glance at Wang Chen’s eating posture, unconsciously slowing her own movements, and gently took a bite of the shrimp. The delicious flavor burst on her tongue in an instant. She slightly squinted her eyes, her inner joy nearly spilling over. She quickly realized she was losing her composure, coughed lightly and pretended to calm herself. As she set down her chopsticks, Li Meng picked up a glass of lemonade and took a sip, trying to cover the faint blush that had risen on. Her face, the little chubby boy watched with a slight smile at the corners of his mouth, a glint of mischief in his eyes. Wang Chen. Try this. Their family has paired Wagyu beef with cheese, which is quite a novel idea and the taste is absolutely amazing. As he. Spoke, he picked up a knife and fork, cutting the Wagyu cheese tart into even small pieces, first handing one to Wang Chen, then turning to offer one to Li Meng. Li Meng took the small piece of Wagyu cheese tart her brother handed her and cautiously tasted a bite. The rich flavors spread in her mouth, and she secretly marveled at it, yet still insisted, it’s just okay, not as exaggerated as you say. Li Xiang, knowing his sister’s thoughts well, pointedly said, oh, Meng Meng, you really are picky, something this delicious can’t catch your eye? Li Meng shot her brother a glare and retorted, you talk too much, if you love it so much, just eat more. Wang Chen watched the siblings bicker and couldn’t help but laugh. This laughter made Li Meng’s face turn even redder, she turned her head. Away, pretending to look elsewhere. After a few rounds of drinks and dishes, Li Xiang cleared his throat and said, my sister has been. Spoiled by our family since she was little. Although she has a bit of a temper and a strong personality, her abilities are not lacking. She has been going on about wanting to find a good platform to showcase her skills. After thinking it over, our company is the perfect fit, and with you keeping an eye on her, just consider it a favor for a brother and give her a chance. Upon hearing this, Li Meng’s heart tightened, and she unconsciously clenched the tablecloth. Originally, she didn’t want to go to Wang Chen’s company. But now, she had changed her mind. Working wasn’t a big deal, if she could see this tall and handsome man every day, it didn’t seem so bad. She lowered her head slightly, her long eyelashes fluttering, trying to hide the fleeting expectation in her eyes, and murmured, Brother. Don’t make decisions for me. But her tone no longer held the previous resistance. Wang Chen found Li Meng’s demeanor quite amusing. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a faint smile. Since Miss Li is unwilling, there’s no need to force it. If Miss Li ever changes her mind, Jing Tu and Capital will always welcome you. Upon hearing this, Li Meng’s heart skipped a beat. Her previously lowered headshot up instantly, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes as she said eagerly, I, I didn’t say I was unwilling. It’s just, just that the decision to work came a bit too suddenly. After saying this, she felt her reaction was too obvious, and her cheeks quickly flushed, forcing her to lower her head again, her hands nervously tugging at the hem of her clothes. Li Xiang watched. All of this from the side, nearly unable to suppress his laughter. A few days ago, he and Wang Sikong had invested in Wang Chen’s company, and somehow this news reached their father. Unexpectedly, he didn’t scold Li Xiang for spending money recklessly as he usually did. Instead, he rarely sat down for a heart-to-heart talk with him. He even mentioned that if money ran short, he could ask him for more. Li Xiang’s father, Li Chongqing, had been navigating the business world for decades with a keen eye for opportunities. How could he not know the significance of the Pioneer Heavy Industry Group? Wang Chen was the only son of the chairman of Pioneer Heavy Industry Group, with the family business spanning multiple fields, including energy, machinery manufacturing, highways, docks, and high-end technology. They held a crucial position in the global business landscape, even when Li Chongqing wanted to investigate the Wang families. Background, it was like looking through a fog. The information before him seemed obscured by a thick mist. He utilized the connections. He had built over the years in the business world to contact various powerful informants. He even went so far as to hire a top international business investigation team at great expense. Yet the results were unsatisfactory. A family whose background was so difficult to uncover must be hiding unimaginable power, which made him both wary and excited. That night, Li Changqing called Li Xiang into his. Study.He spoke to him with a serious expression that barely concealed his excitement. This time you invest in Wang Chen’s company, it’s simply a godsend opportunity. Wang Chen is the only son of the chairman of Pioneer Heavy Industries Group and his family’s business. Spans the globe with immense influence. If we can form a marriage alliance with their family, our business will reach new heights. How do we do that? Li Xiang asked, puzzled. Li Chongqing continued, From now on, you must spend more time with Wang Chen, find opportunities to deepen your relationship. Also, introduce your sister to him, it would be best if Meng Meng could work at his company. Over time, feelings will develop and I doubt they won’t hit it off. Li Xiang scratched his head, hesitating as he said, Dad, isn’t this a bit too deliberate? Meng Meng and Wang Chen don’t even know each other, and with Meng Meng’s temperament, would she even agree? Li Chanqing shot him a glare, exasperated, what do you know? This is a rare opportunity, if your sister can develop further with. Wang Chen, it would be a tremendous blessing for our family. As for your sister, as the older brother, you should persuade her, she will understand. What about the Kong family? In front of Pioneer Heavy Industries Group, what does the Kong family count for? Don’t worry about them. Alright. Li Xiang could only nod in resignation. It seems that his little sister has taken a liking to Wang Chen. Li Xiang immediately felt relieved he wouldn’t have to be caught in a dilemma. He didn’t want to sacrifice his sister’s happiness by forcing her to be with someone she didn’t like. As long as they spent time together, he believed they would eventually come. Together. He quickly cleared his throat and smoothed things over, saying, Wang Chen, you see, she’s just a stubborn duck deep down. She might already be willing. Meng Meng, would I harm you? There are so many people in our company who would break their necks to get. In. He winked at Li Meng, teasing, aren’t you going to express your stance? Upon hearing this, Wang Chen said softly, in that case, I happen to need an assistant, what do you think? That’s great. The assistant position can be a good training opportunity, and you. can learn closely from him. Li Xiang’s eyes instantly lit up. An assistant position is good, there are tasks to do, and when there aren’t, it’s relatively relaxed. Upon hearing this, Li Meng’s heart blossomed with joy. She huffed and turned her head away, pretending. To be indifferent, hmm, don’t get me wrong, I just think this job is a bit challenging, that’s why I’m considering it, not for any other reason to go to your company. Oh my dear sister, don’t be so stubborn. I can see through your little thoughts, you know? Seeing. This, Li Xiang deliberately teased her from the moment Wang Chen walked in, your eyes haven’t left him. Now you say you just find the job challenging, who are you trying to fool? Li Meng’s face instantly turned beet red and she stomped her foot in embarrassment. In anger, Li Xiang, if you keep talking nonsense, I won’t let you off. I’m just genuinely interested in the job, what does it have to do with him? As she spoke, she pretended to hit Li Xiang, who quickly laughed and dodged. Wang Chen watched the siblings playfully, bickering and found it amusing. He wondered why the little chubby guy had invited him here for a meal, it turned out he had ulterior motives. He somewhat understood the little chubby guy’s intentions. Although it was a bit helpless, it was also unavoidable. The science of wealthy families enjoy a life of luxury that ordinary people cannot, and naturally they must bear the responsibilities and expectations bestowed by their families. The halo of the family is both an honor and a constraint. Marriages within their circle are quite common, a means to consolidate family power. The meal lasted nearly two hours. They chatted happily, and when it was time to settle the bill, the total came to over 10,000 yuan. Of course, it was the little chubby guy who paid the bill. Stepping out. Of the four seasons in the mansion, the afternoon sun bathed them, and a gentle breeze brushed by, carrying the unique heat of summer.li. Xiang patted Wang Chen’s shoulder, a meaningful smile appearing on his face. His gaze shifted back and forth between Wang Chen and Li Meng, I just remembered I have an important meeting to attend, so I won’t be able to stay with you guys. Wang Chen, could you please take Meng Meng around? It’s a good chance for you two to get to know each other. You rich second generation who spends all day hanging out, what meeting could you possibly have? Wang Chen replied, speechless. Li Xiang, however, was not annoyed. He waved his hand with a playful grin and said, I must have remembered wrong. It’s my dog that’s about to give birth. I need to go check on it. Without waiting for Wang Chen and Li Meng to react, he quickly hopped into his flashy Lamborghini, stepped on the gas, and drove off, leaving only the roar of the engine behind. Li Meng stood there, her face flushed with embarrassment and anger, and stomped her foot, saying, that Li Xiang is really too much. How can he just leave me here alone? She glanced at Wang Chen and then muttered softly, Mr. Wang, don’t listen to my brother’s nonsense. If you have something to do, just go ahead. I can go back by myself. Wang Chen looked at Li Meng’s blushing face and smiled gently, saying, I don’t have any plans this afternoon anyway. How about I accompany you for a walk? It’ll be nice to enjoy the scenery. Li Meng hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly, her voice as soft as a whisper, then. Okay, sorry to trouble you, Mr. Wang. Call me Mr. Wang at work, but just my name in private, Wang Chen smiled. Alright. Then I’ll call you Wang Chen, Li Meng said, slightly lifting her chin. The two strolled along the street, with shops lining the sides and boats coming and going on the river in. The distance. You don’t look very old, you must have just graduated not long ago, right? Wang Chen broke the silence first. Li Meng huffed, pretending to be dissatisfied, what? Are you questioning my abilities? I graduated from Stanford University last year, so don’t underestimate me. Wang Chen waved his hand with a smile, I didn’t mean to underestimate. You, just curious. I’m a few years younger than you. Then aren’t you still in school? That’s right, I’m still in my junior year. Li Meng looked shocked, you’re only a junior? My brother didn’t even tell me. How come you’re so impressive, running a company while still in school? It’s all thanks to my family’s support, Wang Chen chuckled lightly. Li Meng shook her head in disagreement, a hint of envy in her voice, that just proves your abilities, otherwise, your family wouldn’t trust you to start a business. Unlike. Me, my family still sees me as a child. If it weren’t for you, I’d probably be working at our family company right now. Whenever I go out with friends, they always want to know. Everything, what time I’ll be back, who I’m with. I’m already this old, yet I feel like I have no freedom at all. They’re so afraid I’ll go astray, keeping a tight watch on me. A hint of loneliness flashed in her eyes, but she quickly looked up at Wang Chan and asked, what about you? Your family supports your entrepreneurship, so they didn’t. Set any rules for you? Nope. Wang Chen just smiled. Li Meng looked puzzled and pressed, how could there be no requirements at all? Don’t try to fool me. Really? There aren’t any, Wang Chen shrugged. Alright then. As they talked, they walked back to the Four Seasons in Mansion. Wang Chen arrived at the parking spot. He pressed the key and the Apollo IE’s lights flashed, emitting a crisp unlocking sound. He turned to Li Meng and said, it’s getting late, how about I give you a ride? Home. I’m not too comfortable with you going back alone, Apollo i.e. Li Meng’s eyes lit up when she saw Wang Chen’s car. She quickly walked over to the car, circling it and exclaiming, this is a top-tier supercar, limited to only 10 worldwide. I’ve only seen it in magazines, I didn’t expect to see the real thing today. Then, she shyly said to Wang Chen, Wang Chen, can you let me drive this Apollo i.e. for a bit? You like supercars? Wang Chen asked, surprised by Li Meng’s excited expression. Generally, it’s boys who like supercars, girls tend to prefer sedans or coupes, focusing on attractive interiors and comfortable driving experiences. It’s rare to find a girl who likes supercars. No wonder there was a high-level driving skill listed in Li Meng’s profile. It’s not just that I like them. Li Meng nodded. Vigorously, her eyes sparkling with excitement. I’ve always loved supercars and motorcycles. Every time I see them, I feel my adrenaline rush, the perfect combination of. Speed and passion is just too cool. Li Meng pouted, a hint of helplessness in her voice. Unfortunately, my family won’t let me buy these cars. They always think they’re too dangerous and they believe it’s unsafe for a girl like me to drive them. No matter how I argue, they won’t agree. To avoid getting shorter after adulthood. I can only look at them. Wang Chen wasn’t surprised, that’s how the older generation is. To avoid getting shorter after growing up? That sounds like a broken leg. As a girl, if she likes riding motorcycles and supercars, her family must think she’s crazy. In the eyes of the older generation, these are not things girls should. be doing and they definitely wouldn’t approve. This car is yours for today. Wang Chin took out the key and handed it to Li Meng. Thanks. Li Meng took the key, her expression betraying her uncontainable joy. She pressed the unlock button. The classic butterfly doors of the Apollo IE slowly lifted. Li Meng’s eyes instantly lit up. So cool, she couldn’t help but murmur to herself. She gently stroked the edge of the car door then took a deep breath and sat in the driver’s seat. Isn’t it a bit inconvenient to drive in high heels? Wang Chen, sitting in the passenger seat, frowned slightly. He pointed to her silver high heels. Although he was an experienced driver, he strictly followed traffic rules. Driving in high heels is clearly a big no-no. There are countless roads, but safety comes first. Driving unsafely can lead to tears for loved ones. Wang Chen had been given a second chance at life and had a system. His wonderful life was just beginning. It would be a shame if something happened because Li Meng was driving in high heels. Sorry. Li Meng glanced at her high heels and quickly responded, I got so excited seeing the car that I almost forgot I was still wearing these. A hint of embarrassment flashed across her face and then she had a sudden idea, I’ll go buy a pair of shoes from the shop. Nearby, just wait a moment. After saying that, Li Meng quickly opened the car door and walked briskly towards the store by the street. Usually, she kept a pair of flat shoes in her own car for driving. Today, she came in her brother’s car and, in her excitement, didn’t think about it. In no time, Li Meng returned to the car wearing. A pair of white sneakers. All set. Now I can drive. She firmly grasped the steering wheel with both hands, feeling the unique texture of the supercar’s steering wheel, her heartbeat quickening. Wang Chen smiled at her but said nothing, simply fastening his seatbelt. Virum as the engine roared to life, the Apollo IE slowly pulled out of the parking space. At first, Li Meng was a bit cautious, after all, it was her first time driving such a top-tier supercar. But soon, she was captivated. By the supercar’s powerful performance and precise handling, gradually loosening up. Wow, this is amazing. Wang Chen, hold on tight, I’m going to accelerate Li. Meng shouted excitedly, pressing the gas pedal down, and the supercar shot forward like an arrow, the scenery on both sides quickly retreating. Wang Chen felt a sudden, jolt in his heart, an inexplicable sense of foreboding rising within him. As expected, when the car exited the section of road with a speed limit of 60, Li Meng’s lips curled up slightly, excitement surging through her, her eyes burning with a desire for speed. She glanced at Wang Chen and slammed the accelerator to the floor. The powerful engine instantly propelled the Apollo IE forward. The needle on the speedometer jumped wildly, breaking past 120 miles per hour in the blink of an eye. Wind rushed in through the car window, causing the item’s inside to rattle, and Li Meng shouted excitedly, this is the feeling wow, the damned pushback sensation. Wang Chen’s body was pressed firmly against the seat back due to the sudden acceleration. He gripped the armrest tightly, his heart racing, and shouted, Li Meng, slow down. This is too dangerous. This was the city, after all. However, Li Meng had no intention of slowing down. The road ahead began to curve. Continuously, and the car sped toward the bend, tire screeching against the pavement. So thrilling. Ha ha ha. Li Meng yelled at the top of her lungs, pressing the accelerator down again. The engine roared deafeningly, like an enraged beast charging forward recklessly. Slow down. Only Wang Chan’s terrified voice echoed. In the air. Half an hour later. The car stopped beside an unfamiliar street. Wang Chan and Li Meng walked toward a nearby Mishuei city. Li Meng handed the car keys back to Wang Chen and said, somewhat reluctantly, no wonder it’s a globally limited top supercar, the driving experience is simply amazing. It’s a pity that it can only be driven on the road, unable to unleash its true performance. After taking the keys, Wang Chen fell silent, not wanting to speak. He felt as if his stomach was churning. As soon as he sat down on a high stool at Mishuei City, he quickly covered his mouth, struggling to suppress his discomfort. Seeing This, Li Meng’s excitement vanished in an instant, replaced by deep concern. Wang Chen, are you okay? Did you get car sick from driving so wildly just now? Li Meng hurriedly leaned closer to Wang Chen, her eyes filled with worry. She quickly got up and jogged to the counter, telling the staff, please hurry, get me a glass of room temperature lemon water, ice is fine too, he’s not feeling well. In a short while, Li Meng rushed back with the lemon water, carefully handing it to Wang Chen. Drink some water, slowly. It’s all my fault, I was too impulsive just now and didn’t consider your feelings. Her voice carried a hint of guilt, and her eyes were slightly red. Wang Chin took the lemon water, drank a few sips, and felt a bit of relief in his stomach. He waved his hand at Li Meng, smiling, it’s fine, just take a moment to recover. Wang Chin finally understood why her family threatened her, if she dared to buy a motorcycle or supercar, they would break her legs. If their daughter drove like this, they would be furious enough to want to break her legs. Li Meng usually looked so beautiful and ladylike. Once she got behind the wheel, it was as if she had transformed into a different person. She drove through the city like it was a racetrack, if she were on an actual racing circuit she would surely take off. Wang Chen couldn’t help but imagine Li Meng standing on a professional racetrack, dressed in racing gear and wearing a helmet. Seeing that Wang Chen’s expression had improved considerably, Li Meng said earnestly, how about I take you to the racetrack for a few laps? You just need to get used to it, a few more laps will do the trick. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen’s hand holding the lemon water trembled slightly and his smile froze instantly. His mouth twitched unnaturally as he hurriedly. waved his hands in refusal no absolutely not i’m still haunted by that last ride you want to take me to the racetrack now my poor heart can’t handle it wang chen forced a smile recalling the scene of being whisked away by li mang at breakneck speed in the city still feeling a tingling sensation on his scalp seeing wang chen react so strongly li mang couldn’t help but burst into laughter come on i’m begging you fine i’ll drive slowly i know a place where the track is really nice and there aren’t many people usually i sneak out here alone without telling my parents Li Meng pleaded with her big, watery eyes, looking pitiful. Horror. Long eyelashes fluttered like little fans with each blink, the corners of her eyes slightly raised, exuding a playful charm. At this moment, she looked at Wang Chen with great anticipation. Her face was small and delicate, with soft, flowing lines, like a meticulously crafted piece of art. Her fair skin had a faint blush, and beneath, her high nose was a slightly pouting cherry-like mouth. Seeing Li Meng’s adorable and pitiful appearance, Wang Chen’s heart softened instantly. He sighed helplessly. and said with a wry smile, alright then, remember you said to drive slowly, Li Meng’s eyes instantly sparkled like brilliant stars, and she jumped up excitedly, saying, Wang Chen, you’re the best. In fact, Wang Chen also wanted to check out the racetrack. In his previous life, he never had the chance to visit such places. This was a paradise exclusive to the wealthy. After all, no boy could refuse the thrill of racing on a real racetrack. Supercars were born for the track. Only on the track could the car’s performance be perfectly showcased. Wang Chen had so many supercars, yet he had only been weaving through the streets and alleys of Magic City. To be honest, it was truly a waste for these supercars. Wang Chen had nothing much to do in the afternoon and planned to take a few laps himself. If Li Meng wanted to drive, she could go ahead, after all, Wang Chen wouldn’t be in the passenger seat with her. If something happened and she crashed the car, that would be even better. Li Meng could just compensate Wang Chen. One Apollo i.e. for the company of a beautiful girl, how could that be a loss? Wang Chen sat in the passenger seat of the Apollo i.e. watching the car head towards the suburbs. He couldn’t help but ask, where are we going? They had been driving out of the urban area of Magic City for half an hour and had now reached the suburbs. Tianma Mountain Cemetery. Li Meng’s lips curled slightly, a glint of mischief in her eyes. What? Hehe, look how scared you are. Li Meng couldn’t help but laugh, then explained, next to Tianma Mountain Cemetery is the famous Tianma Mountain racetrack in Magic City. Because such. Professional racetracks are very expensive to build, if it were constructed in the urban area, the cost would be astronomical, so this track was built at Tianma Mountain. The Tianma Mountain racetrack is considered a substitute for the Magic City International racetrack. I used to come here to practice driving secretly. Li Meng. Continued, unfortunately, the Magic City International racetrack is generally not open to the public, otherwise, it would be even more thrilling to drive there. But, fortunately, the Tianma Mountain racetrack is also quite good. Although its scale and facilities can’t compare to the international racetrack, it has the advantage of being open at all times. Wang Chen hadn’t thought of that. But thinking about it, such professional tracks are sky high in cost, and the maintenance fees are also ridiculously high. Catering to casual visitors probably wouldn’t even cover the maintenance costs. Only small tracks like this would be open to the public regularly. Wang Chen nodded slightly and then asked, Is the Tianma Mountain racetrack usually crowded? I don’t want to go and just end up waiting in line, barely getting a few laps. In. Li Meng pouted and said helplessly, after all, there are only a few people who play racing, usually, there aren’t many. Soon, the car slowly entered the Tianma mountain racetrack in Magic City. We’re here. Before Wang Chen could take a good look around, Li Meng had already parked the car at the entrance of the racetrack. A staff member wearing a name tag and uniform approached with a smile. He bent slightly to look inside the car and immediately said warmly, Miss Li, it’s been a while. Since you came. This time you brought a friend along? I’ve been too busy lately, I just came as soon as I had some free time, Li Meng said, waving her hand with a smile .As she spoke, Li Meng took a membership card out of her bag and handed it over. The staff member took the card, skillfully swiped it on the nearby machine, and respectfully said, Miss Li, your membership points have accumulated quite a bit, you can exchange them for a small gift next time. But your friend is here for the first time, right? According to the rules, new customers must first participate in a safety training session, which lasts about 20 minutes. After that, you can go. out and experience it. Li Meng nodded, pointed to the parking lot, and asked, still parking in the usual place? Yes, just park there, the staff member quickly. Replied. After registering, he returned the membership card to Li Meng and raised the barrier. Wang Chen glanced at Li Meng, this woman even had a membership card here. How deep is her addiction? Li Meng noticed Wang Chen’s gaze and smiled, gently nudging him with her elbow, don’t just stand there, once you experience it, you’ll definitely want to get one too. Li Meng then drove the car into the racing venue. She parked and turned off the engine. Wang Chin opened the car door and stepped out. Instantly captivated by the scene before him. The vast racing venue appeared somewhat desolate, with no one around. Moreover, this racing track seemed a bit small. Wang Chin scrutinized it, feeling that this racetrack was at most only 2 kilometers long. Just this distance. And there were 7 or 8 turns. This was completely different from what he had imagined before coming. It was too shabby. Wang Chin looked puzzled and turned to Li Meng, slightly furrowing his brow. This is quite. A gap from what I imagined. With such a small track, what can we do? It seems like you haven’t even pressed the accelerator to the floor before you have to hit the brakes, Li Meng said helplessly. Although it’s a bit small here, apart from international tracks, this is the only racing venue open to the public around Magic City. Don’t underestimate this place, such tracks have been recognized by the International Automobile Federation and meet international standards, Wang Chen nodded. Upon hearing this, guided by the staff, he arrived at the safe driving training room. After 30 minutes of training, Li Meng said to Wang Chen, how about you? Take a couple of laps on the track while no one is around? Wang Chen looked at the track and felt a surge of excitement. Although Tianma racing circuit was relatively small, it was still a racetrack. Plus, it was just right for a novice like him, he might not be able to handle a more advanced track. He took a deep breath, nodded, suppressing his inner tension and excitement and sat in the driver’s seat of the Apollo IE. As soon as Wang Chen touched the steering wheel, he felt something was off. Upon closer inspection, he realized the seat position had changed. After adjusting the seat, Wang Chin started the engine and gently pressed the accelerator, smoothly. Driving onto the track. Accelerate, let me see your skills. Li Meng, sitting in the passenger seat, had a smile on her lips filled with a hint of eager excitement. Wang Chin looked at the track before him, feeling his blood boil, with the joy of machine soul buff active, he had nothing to fear. He slammed the accelerator to. The floor. The room. The engine of the Apollo IE let out a deep and powerful roar, and the car shot forward like a cheetah. Wang Chen watched the speedometer’s needle rise rapidly to the right side of the dial like a rocket ignited. In the blink of an eye, the speed broke through 100 km per hour, then 110 km per hour, 130 km per hour, 160 km per hour, 200 km slash h. The intense push against his back pressed him firmly into the seat as if he were merging with it. In his ears, the sound of the wind turned into a sharp whistle. Wang Chen felt his brain swell as if he had gone deaf. He couldn’t even hear Li Meng’s voice shouting beside him, but his eyes were fixed ahead, revealing an almost frenzied confidence. This confidence was bestowed upon him by the joy of machine soul, even though his heart raced like thunder and blood surged wildly through his veins, he firmly believed he could perfectly control this car. The Apollo IE seemed to have been completely awakened, its speed steadily increasing. It appeared to be in its element. Even through the curves, Wang Chen did not slow down. yet the Apollo IE remained stable, showcasing its outstanding balance system. After navigating the curve, a long straight stretch lay ahead. Accelerate again. Accelerate. Vroom. A powerful wave of sound surged past his ears. In an instant, the entire racetrack was enveloped by this overwhelming sound wave. In just a few seconds, Wang Cheng completed a lap. Without the slightest pause, he turned the steering wheel, and the Apollo IE shot off like a bolt of lightning towards the next lap. After several laps, Wang Chen finally came to a stop, feeling a bit unsatisfied. Indeed, driving. A supercar had to be done on a professional track. That was the real thrill. He parked the car, took off his helmet, and let out a long breath. Wang Chen, I didn’t. Expect your skills to be so impressive, almost on par with a professional racer, Li Meng said, looking at him in surprise. You didn’t even slow down for the curbs. Is this your first time at the racetrack? Wang Chen smiled and replied, it really is my first time. Li Meng’s eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief, that’s too exaggerated. To perform like this on your first try, have you been practicing secretly? Maybe I just have a knack for the track, it felt particularly smooth right? From the start, Wang Chen shrugged and said with a mysterious smile. He knew very well that the spirit of the machine entry played a crucial role in this. However, he didn’t want anyone to know about the system’s existence. Wang Chen then unbuckled his seatbelt, opened the car door, and stepped out. Li Meng also got out from the passenger seat. She looked at Wang Chen, who stood still beside her, and asked with some confusion, aren’t you going to be my co-driver? I can show you my true skills. No need, you drive, I just want to get some fresh air. Wang Chen waved his hand and directly refused. He must have lost his mind to sit in her car. He had already driven so fast in the city, he didn’t know how crazy it would get on the racetrack. Although they had only known each other for less than a day, he was going to be Li Meng’s boss in the future. He didn’t want to embarrass himself any further. Alright then, Li Meng said, nodding helplessly. I’ve run this track countless times, but it’s my first time driving such a top-tier supercar. Li Meng took the keys from Wang Chen’s hand, smoothly settled into the driver’s seat, closed the door, and completed the motion in one fluid movement. The engine roared again, the sound even more frantic than when Wang Chen was driving. The Apollo IE shot out like an arrow released from a bow. Wang Chen stood by the racetrack, arms crossed, his eyes quickly following the car’s rapid movements. After a few laps, Li Meng skillfully downshifted in brake, bringing the car to a steady stop in front of Wang Chen. Just as she got out of the car, a voice suddenly came from behind. Li Meng. Hearing. The voice, Li Meng turned around to see a group of people walking towards them from a distance. There were eight of them, led by a tall, slender man who looked to be. In his twenties, dressed in a white casual outfit. He stood tall, with sharp eyes, exuding an aura of authority. The tall man approached them, a faint smile on his. Face, Meng Meng, what brings you here today? You didn’t even let me know in advance. If the staff hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have known you were here, Li Meng. replied her brow slightly furrowed a hint of annoyance flashing across her face do you need something if not please don’t disturb me while i’m driving he he the smile on the tall man’s face froze for a moment before quickly returning his gaze fell on wang chen then shifted to the apollo ie behind him and the local license plate 88888 a flicker of surprise crossed his eyes and then he said nonchalantly this friend looks a bit unfamiliar dream is this your new friend you don’t even introduce us old friends he’s not just my friend he’s my boss Meng said. The tall, thin man still wore that indifferent smile. He curiously asked, didn’t uncle ask you to work at his company? Aren’t you afraid he’ll blame you when he finds out? Kong Jin Yuan. Li Meng said with some annoyance, my own affairs are none of. Your business, and you have no right to question me. And please call me Li Meng, you’re not anyone to me, always meddling. Dream. That’s not quite right, Kong Jin Yuan said with a smile, we’ve grown up together, and uncle has always treated me like a half-son. Our families are well acquainted, I’m just concerned about you, how can that be called meddling? Kong Jin-yuan stared at Wang Chen’s face, after all, you haven’t experienced the harshness of society, easily blinded by appearances. Just because someone is handsome, doesn’t mean they’re a good person. I’ll look out for you and check on your new boss, it can only benefit you, not harm you. Otherwise, what if you encounter someone unsavory with bad intentions? Kong Jin-yuan slightly squinted, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes. I can’t explain that to uncle. Upon hearing this, Li Meng’s anger surged. She said furiously, don’t be so shameless, my dad is my. Dad, we just have some connections, but you and I have nothing to do with each other. I warn you to show some respect, this is my boss. Wang Chen, not some unsavory character. Wang Chen started his own business at this age, unlike you, who hangs out with shady friends. All day, thinking you’re something special. Mind your own business and stop pointing fingers. Li Meng’s words left no room for Kong. Jin Yuan’s pride. She found his pretentious concern for her utterly disgusting. The veins on Kong Jin Yuan’s forehead throbbed, and a flicker of disdain crossed his eyes as he looked at Wang Chen. He suppressed his anger and stopped arguing with Li Meng. Kong Jin Yuen continued to smile, turning to Wang Chen, let’s get acquainted, I’m Kong Jin Yuen. You must not be a local, right? To get a magic, a 88888 license plate, you must have some power. No need to get acquainted, Wang Chen replied coldly, his eyes showing no desire for friendship. What Kong Jin Yuen had just said was clearly directed at him. On the surface, it seemed like concern for Li Meng, but the underlying tone was one of belittlement and provocation aimed at him. He even specifically pointed out Wang Chen’s license plate. Clearly, a local license plate in Magic City meant nothing to him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so confident. His background must be impressive. Plus, with the surname Kong, it might not mean much elsewhere, but in Magic City, it carries some weight. However, while others might fear him, Wang Chen was not afraid. Not just in this small area of Magic City, but throughout the entire Hua Gua, there were very few who could make Wang Chen bow his head. Did they really think the Wang family was easy to mess with? climbing snow-capped mountains and crossing grasslands was not done without effort. Kong Jin Yuen? What a joke. Kong Jin Yuen’s smile slowly faded, replaced by a sullen expression. Wang Chen ignored him, turning to Li Meng, you two chat, I’ll go for a few more laps. He then returned to the car and started. The engine. Wait for me, I’m coming too. Li Meng quickly ran to Wang Chen’s car, deftly opened the door, and sat in the passenger seat. Wang Chen skillfully maneuvered the car, speeding towards the racetrack. He didn’t want to deal with such people and didn’t care. About the relationship between Kong Jin Yuan and Li Meng. Today, only the racetrack could pique his interest. Damn, Kong, this kid. Is a bit arrogant. Yeah, it seems your reputation isn’t that great. I didn’t expect brother Kong to be looked down upon in the magic. City. Exactly, I’ve never seen someone so arrogant on our turf. Kong Xiao, say the word, and we’ll rush over and show him what’s. What’s? To be able to get a magic A88888 license plate at such a young age, he must be something else. A young man wearing black framed. Glasses pushed up his glasses, frowning as he analyzed the situation. Who cares if he’s something else? A blonde guy next to Kong. Zhenyuan said, who doesn’t know the influence brother Kong has here? Even if he has some background, he better think twice. Offending. Us, Kong Xiao, is just asking for trouble. Hearing their discussion, Kong Zhenyuan’s expression gradually darkened. Shut up, he. Suddenly shouted. Everyone was startled by his sudden outburst, exchanging glances and daring not to speak further. Looks like I’ve. Been too low-key lately, it’s been a long time, since anyone dared to disrespect me. Kong Jin-yuan’s face was grim as he turned and. Walked towards the yellow Lamborghini Huracan LP Spider parked nearby. Brother Kong, what are you going to do? The bespectacled young. Man sensed something was off and quickly stepped in front of Kong Jin-yuan. Brother Kong, don’t act impulsively, it could lead to. Trouble. This racetrack is crowded and full of eyes, with cameras everywhere. It would be easy to get caught on tape. If that video. Gets online, public opinion won’t be in our favor. At that moment, the blonde guy chimed in, Brother Kong, this Wang Chan managed to get that kind of license plate, he might have some backing. If we hurt him, his people definitely won’t let it go and we’ll all be in deep trouble. Kong Jingyuan frowned, ignoring their warnings. After getting into the Lamborghini, he started the car. He slammed the accelerator to the floor. The tires screeched against the ground, creating a deafening noise and kicking up a cloud of dust. The car charged forward like a frenzied beast, heading in the direction where Wang Chan and Li Meng had gone. Wang Chen was driving, looking ahead. At the upcoming curve, showing no signs of slowing down. Just as he was about to take the turn with perfect speed and angle, a bright yellow flash suddenly zipped past in the rearview mirror. Immediately after, a deafening roar of an engine grew closer. Li Mang also. Since something was off, she turned to look back and exclaimed, Wang Chen, it’s Kong Jin Yuan, he’s catching up. Whoosh. A bright yellow shadow streaked past Wang Chen like lightning. Wang Chen frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. Hiss a. Sharp, piercing sound tore through the air in an instant. Kong Jin-Yuen’s Lamborghini unexpectedly slowed down. The brake discs and pads screeched against each other, emitting a pungent burnt smell. Kong Jin-Yuen controlled the vehicle, deliberately driving at a speed, significantly lower than Wang Chen’s, blatantly blocking his path, exuding a sense of provocation. Wang Chen instinctively slowed down, steering to the side, then hit the brakes to come to a gradual stop. Fortunately, the Apollo IE’s brake discs were made of ceramic. material, and after a few laps, they had heated up, showcasing excellent breaking performance at that moment. With a sharp screech, he came. To a steady halt. Wang Chen looked at the Lamborghini ahead, his expression is dark as water. Li Meng screamed in terror, then angrily, leaned out of the window, shouting at Kong Jin Yuan’s car. Kong Jin Yuan, are you crazy? You reckless bastard, just drive properly. What? Kind of skill is it to block the road on purpose? Do you think you can scare us like this? You complete coward. Kong Jin Yuan seemed. To be deliberately provoking them, seeing Wang Chen stop, he also slowed down and stopped in front, he also extended his hand out of the car window, raising his middle finger. Wang Chen pressed the accelerator again, and the Apollo IE began to speed up. The Lamborghini in front also started to move. Kang Jin-yuan occupied the lane, not giving Wang Chen a chance to overtake. The two cars were very close, so close that Wang Chen only needed to press the accelerator a little harder for the two vehicles to collide. Wang Chen lightly tapped the brakes, reducing his speed slightly. The Lamborghini in front also slowed down. Wang Chen accelerated again, and the Lamborghini followed suit. They maintained a certain distance throughout. Damn it, what an idiot. Wang Chen cursed under his breath. Is Kong Jingyuan crazy? Li Meng, sitting in the passenger seat, said with some fear, why don’t we pull over for a bit and not get entangled? With him? Wang Chen took a deep breath, gripped the steering wheel tightly, and then slammed the accelerator to the floor. Bang! With a loud crash, the Apollo IE slammed into the rear of the Lamborghini like a cannonball. The tremendous impact caused the Lamborghini to lurch forward violently. The rear of the car was severely deformed, the metal twisting with a sharp, piercing screech. The strong collision sent the Lamborghini uncontrollably careening off the track. Kong Jin Yuan was also jolted by the sudden impact, his head nearly hitting the steering wheel. He stared wide-eyed in terror, his hands frantically spinning the steering wheel, trying to regain control of the vehicle. Screech. The tires spun on the ground, continuously emitting smoke. The tires made a sharp friction sound. against the ground, leaving a long black mark at the edge of the track. No! Kong Jingyuan screamed in despair. The Lamborghini crashed straight into the guardrail beside the track. Boom! A loud noise erupted as metal collided with metal, creating a tremendous shockwave. The guardrail was twisted and deformed from the impact. The front of the Lamborghini was also severely damaged, the airbags deploying instantly to envelop Kong Jingyuan tightly. At the same time, Wang Chen was also affected by the recoil from the collision, causing the Front of the Apollo IE to crumple inward. The bumper was already twisted beyond recognition, with part of it hanging down beneath. The front of the car. The headlights shattered into a pile of glass shards. Kong Jin Yuan was tightly pinned to the driver’s. Seat by the airbag. His head was violently pushed by the airbag and then slammed back against the seat. The corner of his eye. Unprepared, struck the edge of the steering wheel, instantly splitting open a gash, with bright red blood trickling down his cheek. He. Gasped for breath, his chest heaving violently, his eyes filled with terror and anger. Wang Chen, how dare you crash my car. Kong Jin Yuan temporarily ignored the wound at the corner of his eye, staring at his beloved car in such a state. He clenched his fists and pounded on the already deflated airbag. This isn’t over. Damn. Kong Jin Yuan didn’t have many hobbies, but street racing was one of them. He had loved cars since he was a child. As he grew up, he mingled in various racing circuits, and by his 20s, he had the skills of a professional racer. Lamborghini Huracan LP Spider. To get it, he pulled countless strings and waited for over half a year before finally getting the car. The second-generation elite of the entire Magic City knew that Kong Jin-yuan cherished his car-like life itself. This Lamborghini Huracan LP Spider was even more his pride and joy. Due to family reasons, he needed to keep a low profile. The higher the position, the more cautious one had to be. His family originally did not allow him to buy luxury cars, but he couldn’t resist, and secretly bought it under a friend’s name without his parents knowing. He even refused friends who wanted to take it for a spin. He took great care of it, meticulously wiping down the car before every drive, not allowing even a speck of dust, let alone Wang Chen. Wrecking his car, even a slight scratch would make Kong Jingyuan demand compensation. Wang Chen’s expression was cold, ignoring Li Meng’s. Terrified cries beside him, he maneuvered the steering wheel to align the front of his car with the Lamborghini’s body. Boom. Boom. Boom. The Apollo i.e., under Wang Chen’s command, was poised to strike. Scare me? Kong Jin Yuen looked at Wang Chen’s actions, sneering. As he said loudly, dare you hit me again and see what happens. Kong Jin Yuen sat firmly in the car, unshaken. He didn’t believe Wang. Chen would dare to hit him again. Did he really think he was easily intimidated? Based on his experience, given the level of power. Wang Chen was gathering, even if he was in the car, he wouldn’t just walk away and scathe. Come on, if you have the guts, hit me again. Let’s see if you want to spend the rest of your life in prison today. You spineless guy, I want to see if you have the guts. Kong. Jinyuan’s beloved car had been hit, and he was seething with anger with no outlet. He directly confronted Wang Chen, with his status, who, in the city would dare to touch him? If anything happened to Kong Jinyuan, even if Wang Chen had a strong background, he would still be skinned alive. Thinking of this, Kong Jinyuan felt even more confident, and his expression grew increasingly arrogant. But the next moment, the smile on Kong Jinyuan’s face froze. He had been playing with cars since he was a child and knew their performance like the back of his hand. Just hearing the increasingly frantic engine sound of Wang Chen’s car, he realized Wang Chen was not joking. This was serious. Damn it. Kang Jin -yuan cursed loudly. The blood drained from his face as he hurriedly unbuckled his seatbelt, rolling and scrambling to open the car door and jump out. Kang Jin-yuan fell to the ground, his body pierced with shards of glass and a sharp pain surged through him, making him let out a painful scream. He struggled to get up, wanting to leave the scene, just as he managed. To stand upright, he saw Wang Chen’s Apollo IE crash into his Lamborghini again. Boom! The entire racetrack erupted with a deafening sound, accompanied by gasps and screams from the crowd. The Lamborghini was completely totaled from this impact. The front of the car was obliterated. The entire vehicle was crumpled together, with only the middle section still somewhat intact. Meanwhile, Wang Chen’s expression was cold, clearly not intending to let this car go easily. He backed up a bit, the tires screeching against the ground, then. accelerated again, heading straight for the mangled Lamborghini. Wang Chen, don’t, don’t do this. Calm down. Li Meng shouted, gripping the handle inside the car tightly, her voice trembling. Wang Chen ignored her, repeatedly performing the same action. It wasn’t. Until the Lamborghini was reduced to a pile of scrap metal that he finally stopped. The people in the racetrack watched the Lamborghini. With wide eyes, their expressions varied. The Lamborghini before them was beyond repair, completely a heap of scrap metal. There was. no need for repairs with that money it would be more cost-effective to buy a new car wang chan’s apollo ie wasn’t in much better shape the front was severely deformed but wang chan didn’t care it was just a car worth tens of millions to him spending tens of millions to vent his anger was worth it trapped in the severely deformed apollo ie the car door was twisted and jammed shut from the impact and he couldn’t open it without hesitation he lifted his foot and kicked the door hard with a bang the door flew open and shattered glass splintered everywhere Wang Chin calmly stepped out of the car. It was just a pity he hadn’t brought his bodyguards. Today, otherwise, it wouldn’t have just been a car crash. He brushed off the dust that had settled on him. Other than that, he had no injuries at all. Wang Chin stood firm, his gaze sweeping over the crowd before finally landing on Kong Jin-yuan not far away. Kong Jin-yuan was slumped on the ground, looking utterly disheveled. Shattered glass was still embedded in his clothes and skin, blood oozing from his wounds, staining his clothes a deep red. Somewhat shaken, Kong Jin-yuan slowly regained his composure. He stormed toward Wang Chen. Filled with rage. A few friends, seeing this, followed closely behind Kong Jin-yuan, surrounding Wang Chen. Li Meng struggled to crawl. Out of the deformed Apollo i.e. not bothering to fix her messy hair or the dust-covered clothes, she stumbled over to Wang Chen’s side. And shouted at Kong Jin-yuan and the others, don’t be impulsive. Let’s talk this out. Kong Jin-yuan, you were in the wrong first. This isn’t Wang Chen’s fault. If you dare to make a move, I’ll go find your grandfather and have him deal with you. Kong Jin Yuan ignored. Li Meng fixating on Wang Chen with a fierce glare. How dare you? His eyes were bloodshot, his face twisted with rage as he yelled. At Wang Chen, do you have any idea what the consequences of this are? His beloved car was destroyed. He was scared enough to jump out. Of the car, not only covered in injuries but also humiliated in front of his friends. Kong Jin Yuan had never been this embarrassed. In his life. Consequences? Since I did it, I’ve never been afraid. Wang Chen’s expression was calm, a hint of disdain in his eyes. As he mocked, you can’t be feeling sorry for your car, can you? No way. No way. It’s just a broken car worth a few million. If it’s gone, it’s gone. I don’t care if my tens of millions worth of car is scrapped, as an outsider, I shouldn’t be the one getting angry over. A car. You, a local from Magic City, shouldn’t be so humiliated over a vehicle, right? Wang Chen crossed his arms, tilting his head. Slightly as he looked at Kong Jingyuan, his eyes full of mockery. If you’re feeling sorry, I’ll be generous. I’ll compensate you with. A toy car, how about that? If you think that’s too little, my Apollo IE should still be worth something, you can take it and sell it for scrap, then add some money to buy yourself a new car. Wang Chen blanced at the wrecked Lamborghini and said, next time you drive, be more careful. You just happened to run into me, if you encountered someone with a bad temper, it wouldn’t just be your car that got scrapped. As Wang Chen finished speaking, the surroundings gradually quieted down. Kong Jin Yuan’s friends exchanged glances, bewildered. Was he always this bold? Did he not realize that this would only infuriate Kong Jingyuan even more? The friends with Kong Jingyuan were left speechless by Wang Chen’s words, their jaws nearly dropping in shock. Their eyes were filled with pity. As Kong Jingyuan’s friends, they knew all too well the power his family wielded. They had thought about provoking Kong Jingyuan in the past, but they had never seen someone like Wang Chen who had crashed his car and nearly taken Kong Jingyuan’s life. Li Meng also looked at Wang Chen in. Surprise! She knew Wang Chen’s company had a registered capital of 100 billion and his family’s influence must be significant. Otherwise, her brother wouldn’t be trying to curry favor with Wang Chen by introducing her to him. After this brief interaction, Li Meng realized that Wang Chen was not someone without brains. He possessed a calmness and composure that was rare for his age. But Wang Chen still acted this way, which indicated that he didn’t take Kong Jingyuan seriously at all. His actions must have been backed by solid confidence. Watching Wang Chen’s calm demeanor, Li Meng couldn’t help but feel a twinge of worry. Kong Jin Yuan’s background was no joke. Taking a deep breath, she anxiously said to Wang Chen, don’t take this lightly, Kong Jin Yuan’s background is really not simple. His family has significant connections in both the political and business worlds, with a wide network. Today, you’ve offended him like this, he definitely won’t let it go easily. Now you know to be afraid? It’s too late. Kong Jin Yuan shouted hoarsely. Wang. Chen, do you think just because you have some money, you can walk all over Magic City? You’re too naive. Do you believe that with? Just a snap of my fingers, I can make you disappear in this city? Your company will also be under my name. You better kneel down and beg for mercy right now, maybe I’ll be merciful and let you off the hook. Oh, Wang Chen listened to Kong Jin Yuan’s threats, his smile growing wider. Make me disappear and want my company too? With you? You think I’ll kneel and beg for mercy? You must still be dreaming. Wangchen slightly raised his head, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes, I’m curious, how do you plan to make me disappear? Is it because of your few friends, or those so-called connections in your family? Kongjin Yuan, let’s put an end to this matter today. Continuing will only be bad for everyone. Li Meng hurriedly stepped forward, arms outstretched in an attempt to separate the two. Everyone calmed down. If this escalates, it won’t benefit anyone. Besides, you were at fault first, and Wangchen was just momentarily angry. Li Meng, stop speaking for him. Kong Jin-yuan blared fiercely at Li Meng and said, and I was at fault first? He crashed my car and humiliated me. If I hadn’t reacted quickly, I would have already called an ambulance. If this matter is just brushed aside, how am I supposed to survive in Magic City in the future? What will others think of me? What will they think of the Kong family? As soon as Kong Jin-yuan finished speaking, a young man with yellow hair jumped out beside him, pointing at Wang Chen’s nose and cursing. You outsider, don’t think that just because you have some money you can act wild here. You must give us a satisfactory explanation. Today, or you’ll regret it. Li Meng took a deep breath and said, Wang Chen is with me, if you have a problem, come at me. At her. Words, everyone was taken aback. Kang Jin Yuan was first stunned, then a trace of anger appeared on his face. Li Meng, what are you doing? Are you opposing me for this guy? I almost died at his hands, and after knowing you for so many years, you actually side with an outsider. This matter has nothing to do with you, so don’t meddle. Kang Jin Yuan vented his anger on Wang Chen, he crashed my car. And for your sake, I could let it go. But he wants my life, this matter is far from over. If I don’t take this seriously, who knows? How many people will suffer if I let him go? A cold glint flashed in Wang Chen’s eyes, Kong Jin Yuan, don’t turn the tables on me. The responsibility for the accident hasn’t even been determined and you already insist that I want your life? You think you can use this? To control me? You’re not qualified. Li Meng wanted to say something more but Wang Chen reached out to stop her. He continued, did. You ever think about the consequences when you crashed my car? Stop disgusting people here. Your worthless life isn’t worth pitying. Don’t harm others. Kong Jin Yuan’s teeth ground together, making a cracking sound. He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. With a sullen face, he squeezed out a few words through clenched teeth. Being young and reckless is fine, but if you go too far, you won’t even know how you died. Money isn’t everything, some people are not worth offending. The price of being overly arrogant is not something you can bear. With just a word from me, I can make it impossible for you to move an inch in Magic City. Kong Zhenyuan snorted coldly, this is magic city, it’s not your place to act wild. Apologize to me now, and you might still have a chance. Heh. Wang Chen let out a cold laugh, a mocking smile curling at the corners of his mouth, you’re all grown up, and you’re still. Playing this game? You can only rely on your family background to threaten others, that’s all you amount to. Today, I wanna see. What you can do to make me apologize. I don’t believe that someone who treasures a car so much can have any great abilities. Kong. Zhenyuan’s face instantly turned red, veins bulging on his forehead, completely enraged. He said angrily, this is what you brought upon. Yourself. I was originally thinking of giving you a chance, but since you are determined to seek death, I will fulfill your wish today. After saying this, Kong Zhenyuan directly took out his phone and dialed a number. Seeing both sides getting heated, Li Meng felt increasingly anxious. If this escalated, wouldn’t Magic City be turned upside down? Kong Zhenyuan. Li Meng said, can you calm down? With things reaching this point, what good does it do you? Do you want your father’s career to be affected too? Kang Jin Yuen turned a deaf ear, sneering at Li Meng. What do you know? If I don’t vent this anger today, how am I supposed to survive in this circle in the future? Today, no one can stop me. I must make him pay the price. Wang Chen, let’s go. Li Meng turned and grabbed Wang Chen’s hand. Wanting to leave first. This matter started because of me. I’ll handle the rest. You don’t need to worry about it. Don’t get angry with him. Kang Jin Yuen has gone mad now. Let’s leave, okay? Kang Jin Yuen was on the phone. Suddenly, he saw Li Meng take the initiative to hold Wang Chen’s hand. He became anxious. Kong Jin Yuan and Li Meng had grown up together, and in his heart, Li Meng had always been the one he had chosen. He had never even held Li Meng’s hand. At this moment, Kong Jin Yuan felt a rush of blood to his head, and intense jealousy and anger completely drowned his rationality. Surround these two for me, this matter isn’t over today. Kong Jin Yuan shouted to a few friends. Kong Jin Yuan, do you really want to go to the inn? Li Meng said, I’m calling my dad right now. Do you really want to make this situation unmanageable and embarrass the elders? After saying that, Li Meng took out her phone and was about to dial. Wang Chan reached out to stop her. Li Meng looked at Wang Chan in confusion, not understanding why he was stopping her. You don’t need to intervene. Wang Chan said calmly, since I dare to stand here, it proves I have confidence. I’ve been a bit bored lately. Playing with him is also a good choice. No matter his background or whatever, I’m in it to the end. Let’s see if you die today. Or I live. If he doesn’t kneel and beg for mercy today, I’ll roll out of the Magic City. As soon as Wang Chen finished speaking, Kong Jin Yuan’s friends almost burst out laughing. They truly admired Wang Chen’s courage to dare provoke Kong Jin Yuan in the Magic City. He must have a lot of guts. He even said he would make Kong Jin Yuan kneel and beg for mercy. Initially, they were worried that Wang Chen’s background was not simple, but now it seemed that Wang Chen was just a reckless youth, unaware of the gravity of the situation. Did he think the Magic City was some small place? He could be so arrogant. Is this kid living in a dream? Huang Mao laughed. While slapping his thigh, he still wants Kong Sha to kneel and beg for mercy, I think he doesn’t know his own weight. Another. Overweight man chimed in, exactly, in the magic city, if Kong Shao stomps his foot, the ground will shake, he still dares to talk big. Just wait until he cries later. Kong Jin Yuan listened to his friend’s mockery, and the smile on his face grew whiter. He showed no. Concealment of his disdain and then said into the phone, I’m at the Tianma Mountain racetrack, bring some people over right away. After. Hanging up, Kang Jin-yuan walked to his beloved car. Looking at the now-wrecked Lamborghini, his expression darkened. He instinctively tightened his grip on the phone. Wang Chen watched Kang Jin-yuan call for help, his expression Kong. Li Meng, on the other hand, was a bit anxious. She looked at Wang Chen, who was making no move, and couldn’t help but whisper, Wang Chen, I know your family is not simple, but Kang Jin-yuan is not as easy to deal with as you think. Kang Jin-yuan’s dad is the deputy mayor of the Magic City, he has. connections in both political and business circles. How can we compete with him? You should contact someone quickly, this is the magic. City, after all, and your family is ultimately limited. Li Meng’s forehead was beaded with fine sweat, and she said nervously, if your family can’t do anything, I’ll notify my dad. Our families have some connections, it might help a bit. Don’t be anxious, let’s wait a bit longer. Wang Chin gently shook his head. His calm demeanor clearly indicated that he didn’t take Li Meng’s words seriously. Seeing this, Li Meng looked at Wang Chen with some doubt, wanting to say something but hesitating. She suspected that Wang Chen was. Just trying to save face by resisting like this. But the situation was urgent. She had no other way and could only silently pray that. Wang Chen truly had a plan. If Wang Chen couldn’t handle it, she would contact her family to step in and resolve the matter, Wang Chen. Was resented by Kong Jin Yuan because of herself, and she absolutely could not allow Wang Chen to suffer any harm. Just as Li. Meng was filled with entanglement and Kong Jin-yuan grew increasingly arrogant. Several police cars, accompanied by sirens, drove into the racetrack. Leading the way was a Santana. The car came to a steady stop. The door opened and the first to get out was a man dressed in a white shirt. He appeared to be in his 30s, holding a delicate briefcase. After getting out of the car, he quickly scanned the area, his gaze precisely landing on Wang Chen. He then walked straight towards Kong Jin-yuan. The two began to converse in low voices. Five men in police uniforms got out of the police cars behind them. They first glanced towards Wang Chen, then shifted their focus to the chaotic racetrack. The Apollo IE and Lamborghini had already been deformed and twisted, losing their former grandeur. They ignored Wang Chen and walked over to take a few photos of the scene. Then they carefully examined the traces left on the racetrack and extracted some items to place in evidence bags. What are you doing? Suddenly, Kong Jin Yuan’s voice came through. Everyone’s gaze turned towards him. Kong Jin-yuan was looking at the man beside him with an unfriendly expression. The man felt a bit intimidated under. Kong Jin-yuan stared, lowering his head and explaining repeatedly. Kong Jin-yuan blanced at Wang Chen, lowering his voice as he said, How could we not find this kid’s information? Doesn’t he have a company? Can’t we find the registration information? Did you even check? The man took out a stack of documents from his briefcase beads of sweat forming on his forehead as he hurriedly said, Young. Master Kong, I checked all of this. But the registration information for his company seems to have been deliberately tampered with, wall. The key data is unclear, even the legal representative’s contact number is a deadline. Young Master Kong, how could I dare to deceive? You? I used all my connections, even asked friends in the underworld for help. But this Wang Chen seems to have appeared out of nowhere, all leads just stop at a certain point. I know nothing about his family situation either. Kong Jin Yuan’s brows furrowed, a bad feeling rising within him. After pondering for a moment, he sneered, it seems this kid has some skills, no wonder he dares to speak. So arrogantly. He was mentally prepared for not being able to find Wang Chen’s information. After all, the man in front of him was just. A small team leader. His position wasn’t very high, so it was normal not to find anything. It wouldn’t make sense if Wang Chen, so. Arrogant, could be easily investigated. However, even if Wang Chen had some background, Kong Jin Yuan didn’t take it to heart. In magic. City, whether you were a dragon or a tiger, you had to abide by his rules. No one could do anything against him. Young master Kong, why? Don’t we wait a bit? Let’s talk after the investigation is clear, the man cautiously suggested. What if this kid’s identity and background are not ordinary? That could be troublesome. Ha, what background could he possibly have? Kong Jin-yuan chuckled lightly. Even if he has a powerful background, on my turf, he must follow my rules. My rules are the rules. Moreover, if he really had some. Big shot behind him, I wouldn’t possibly not know him. I suspect this kid is just a nouveau riche clinging to the thigh of some big shot, it’s normal that you can’t find anything. Kong Jin-yuan didn’t care. Although the Kong family wasn’t much in Hua Gua, just a small shrimp in Magic City, after so many years of accumulation, they had already reached a point where they could cover the sky with one hand, like a net tightly intertwined with both the political and business circles. Those prominent figures in the business and political worlds had to respectfully refer to him as young master Kong. There were many families in the capital that he couldn’t afford to offend. But a nouveau riche from a small place, Kong Jin-yuan didn’t take him seriously at all. No matter how rich he was, so what? In Hua Gua, power is the pinnacle of everything, Kong Jin-yuan could decide the life and death of a company with just a flick of his finger. Alright. The man saw Kong Jin-yuan’s resolute attitude and decided not to persuade him further, turning instead to walk towards the few. Police officers. He approached them and whispered something. The officers nodded slightly, indicating their understanding. Then they. walked over to Wang Chen and said, Wang Chen, right? Based on the clues we currently have, this incident is full of doubts. We suspect. You may have intent to commit murder, and we need you to come with us to the police station for further investigation. Kong Jin Yuen stood to the side, a smug smile creeping onto his face. Up to this point, Wang Chen was still sitting there, waiting for his fate. Clearly, he was at a loss, not knowing what to do. Kong Jin Yuen crossed his arms, adopting a spectator’s posture, ready to enjoy the sight of Wang Chen being taken away in a panic. Still holding it together, huh? Even now, you’re managing to stay calm. Ha ha ha. The smile on Kong Jin Yuen’s face grew more pronounced as he mocked, What’s wrong? Still trying to hold on? Let’s see how calm you. Can be once you’re in the police station. I want to see how long you can keep this up. Wang Chen looked at Kong Jin Yuen’s arrogant, demeanor and side and disappointment. He had thought Kong Jin Yuen would have some formidable means, but it turned out to be just these, few beat cops. Wang Chen felt a bit let down. Was it really too much trouble to bother his family over this? He shook his head. Slowly, he took out a mobile phone from his pocket and dialed a number. The phone rang briefly before being answered. A deep voice came. From the other end, Xiaoyu, why are you calling all of a sudden? Wang Chen took a deep breath, trying to keep his tone calm. Dad, someone is framing me for intentional murder. Intentional murder? On the other end, Wang Jianguo sounded somewhat speechless, as Long. As you didn’t provoke anyone, no one can bully you. Whatever it is, I’ll take care of it for you. someone is even bullying my son. Now, who has the audacity? Wang Chen briefly explained the conflict with Kong Jin-yuan. This guy’s family isn’t simple, I heard he’s the deputy mayor of Magic City and now he wants to take me away. Wang Chen smiled. Deputy mayor of Magic City? Yes. Give me the specifics. Wang Jang-wo said seriously upon hearing this. Kong Xiao, this, the man in a short shirt beside them hesitated and looked at Kong Jin-yuan, signaling whether to interrupt Wang Chen’s call. What’s the rush? let’s see what tricks he can pull kong jinyuan shook his head i want to see who his backer is and how powerful they are to dare provoke me once kong jinyuan started making calls using his political power the nature of this matter changed this was no longer just a conflict between wang chen and him but a contest between two families in this circle of power resorting to violence is the lowest form of action the struggle for power is common among the privileged class various forces swirl beneath the surface while everything appears calm on the surface it seems Wang Chen was merely putting on a brave face. Wang Chen no longer paid attention to Kong Jingyuan and clarified the situation to Wang Jianguo on the phone. With the system rationalizing the cognitive level, Wang Chen disclosed everything about his company with a hundred billion in capital and Apollo i.e. without any concealment. He blocked my car, and then what? Wang Jianguo’s tone was very flat, showing no surprise at Wang Chen having so much money. He assumed it was money given by Wang Chen’s grandfather or maternal grandfather. Although it was a bit much, it was nothing serious. After all, he was his son, a little pampering was to be expected. He blocked my car, causing me to almost not break in time and crash into him. Then, in my agitation, I mistook the accelerator for the brake, resulting in a rear-end collision. He has now contacted several police officers, preparing to arrest me and frame me with a charge of intentional murder. He is also investigating my background, ready to take care of you as well. Wang Chen stroked his chin and said, that’s how. Things are, the situation is what it is, and right now these few people are surrounding me. He didn’t embellish the story. Aside. From the fact that he intentionally stepped on the gas, everything else was true. With Wang Jianguo’s capabilities, he could uncover the. Truth of this matter in less than half an hour. Wang Chen had no need to hide anything. He wants to rebel. Wang Jianguo blurted out. Instinctively, I want to see who dares to be so audacious. He even plans to take care of me too? Leave this matter to me, you don’t. Need to worry. Wang Jianguo sighed, however, your grandfather treats you quite well, he really dotes on you. A company with a. 100 billion in actual capital, and those sports cars. Back then, when I asked him for some money, it was really a struggle, and I had to watch his expression. But you did well in this matter, you didn’t directly call your grandfather. Remember, don’t let your grandfather know, or this matter won’t be so easy to settle. Alright, I understand. At this moment, Wang Chin was also a bit confused. Just agreeing casually. Why call grandpa? He’s just a retired old man, what use is he? After Wang Jianguo understood the ins and outs of the situation, he hung up the phone. So, have you finished your distress call? Let’s see what tricks you can pull. Kong Jin-Yuen. Stood not far away, arms crossed, disdainfully saying, let’s see what your old man can do, otherwise, you might be heading to the station today. After hanging up, Wang Chen looked at Kong Jin-Yuen and revealed a meaningful smile. Playing tricks. Kong Jin-Yuen shot. Wang Chen a cold glance. Even bringing up his dad was just a desperate struggle. Fine. Use whatever means necessary, just catch them. All in one net. If Wang Chen doesn’t end up with his family ruined, Kong Xinyuan would find it hard to swallow this anger. He wouldn’t be able to mix in the magic city anymore. He would be ridiculed for being bullied by a kid from out of town. Take him away, Kong, Xinyuan said to the man in the short shirt. He hesitated and looked at Wang Chen, should we put him in handcuffs? Forget it, let’s leave it at that. After hesitating for a moment, Kong Xinyuan waved his hand. Wang Chen did not resist and voluntarily walked towards the police car. Li Meng followed closely, anxiously saying, Wang Chen, be careful. I’ll call home right away, I’ll be out soon. Don’t worry. No need to trouble your family, I can handle this little matter. Wang Chen chuckled lightly. But, Li Meng hesitated. Should I still make a call? Don’t worry, just keep it in your heart. Bang. Just as Wang Chen finished speaking, the car door was slammed shut violently. Li Meng watched the police car drive away with concern. Who brings up their dad right away? Clearly, it was a last resort. Wang Chen was obviously trying to maintain his manhood’s dignity by not letting her interfere. But Li Meng couldn’t. Just turn a blind eye, after all, this matter arose because of her. Thinking of this, Li Meng no longer hesitated and took out her. Phone to call her dad, telling him everything as it was. On the other end of the line, Li’s father, after listening, was filled with. Concern in his voice, Meng Meng, are you okay? Dad, I’m fine, it’s just that Wang Chen was taken away. As long as you’re okay. Li. Changqing pondered for a moment and said, since Wangchen said not to interfere, I won’t take action. I’ll have someone keep an eye on. Things secretly. Li Meng still looked worried and anxiously said, Dad, but I still can’t rest easy. What if something really happens? To Wangchen? Li Changqing smiled and comforted her, Meng Meng, just keep your heart at ease. Wangchen’s family is not that simple. Even Ten Kong families wouldn’t be enough for him to handle. Is Wangchen’s family really that powerful? Li Meng couldn’t help but. Ask curiously. The Wang family is somewhat extraordinary. As he spoke, Li Chongqing changed the subject, Meng Meng, how did you end? Wang Chen get along today? Li Meng was slightly taken aback, a faint blush creeping onto her cheeks, Dad. Alright, alright, I won’t ask anymore. Li Chongqing immediately laughed, it seemed these two young people were getting along quite well. As for the Wang family’s background, Li Chongqing always felt it was like looking through a fog, unable to see clearly. This was a good opportunity to find out what Wang Chen’s family was really involved in. That way, he could make a better bet. In the police car, Wang Chin pondered Wang Jianguo’s words. Indeed, everything he had done during this time had not escaped Wang Jianguo’s eyes. Wang Chin was not surprised by this. With Wang Jianguo’s capabilities, his every move in the Magic City was naturally under his control. If he had a slight issue, it probably wouldn’t take half an hour for the news to appear on Wang Jianguo’s desk. Wang Jianguo did not delve deeply into the fact that he had so much funding, it seemed he had some misunderstandings. He thought this money was given to him by his grandfather. There were definitely some things he was unaware of. In Wang Chen’s memory, this grandfather was just a retired old man. When did he have the power to give him so much money? It seems now that his grandfather is not simple either. When Wang Chen was reborn, the system optimized his family background. He could clearly feel the changes in his parents. However, his grandfather and maternal grandfather seemed a bit mysterious. Wang Chen shook his head, no longer thinking about these things. After this matter was resolved, he would just ask his dad. When Wang Chen came back to his senses, he found that the police car had already entered the city center of the magic city. Soon, the vehicle arrived at a police station in the Songzheng district. Wang Chen got out of the car and, under the guidance of the police, walked into a lounge within the police station. Inside the Songzheng police station office, smoke swirled around. Several police officers were gathered around a table, their brows furrowed. The table was piled high with case files and ashtrays, cigarette butts densely. packed within Team Leaderly. A police officer approached and called out. Team Leaderly looked up at him and said, did you bring the person back? The officer quickly reported to Team Leaderly, yes, he’s in the lounge now. Based on the situation at the scene, the suspect Wang Chen had a conflict with Kong Jin Yuan at the Tianma Mountain racetrack, then drove a white Apollo IE to crash into Kong’s Lamborghini Huracan LP Spyder, hitting it more than 10 times, causing severe damage to both vehicles, rendering them completely unusable. When we arrived at the Tianma racetrack, we immediately secured the scene and collected relevant physical evidence. Preliminary assessments indicate that Wang Chan is suspected of intentional property damage and intentional injury. Here are the photos from the scene, Team Leader Li, take a look. Team Leader Li took the photos and examined them carefully. The impact was quite significant, over 10 collisions, this is going to be troublesome. Team Leader Li frowned, not looking up as he asked, where is Kong? Zhen Yuan, didn’t you bring him back? Kang Jin-yuan had some abrasions, so we sent him to the hospital first. The officer paused and added, however, we have already arranged for personnel to guard the hospital. Once he finishes his examination, we will bring him back to the police station for a statement. Team leader Li nodded slightly and told the officer in front of him, as soon as he finishes his examination, bring him back immediately. Understood. Have the video recordings from the Tianma racetrack been retrieved? Not. Yet. A colleague is staying there to wait for the relevant person in charge, we should be able to get it in about an hour. Li nodded. And said, let Wang Chen stay in the lounge for now. We’ll interrogate him together when Kong Jin Yuan arrives. You go check his personal. Information and family background again, the more detailed the better. Understood. After Li finished speaking, he stood up and. Walked towards the lounge. He opened the door and immediately saw Wang Chen sitting on the sofa playing with his phone. He filled a cup. Of water from the dispenser and placed it in front of Wang Chen. Then Li sat down in a chair, flipping through the documents in his hand. He rubbed his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache. This case was originally just a very ordinary one, but it involved Kong Jin Yuan, and this Wang Chen, whose background was unknown. That made it different. Li looked up at Wang Chen sitting there, his expression, somewhat complicated. Although not much information could be found about Wang Chen, it was clear he was very wealthy. The fact that he, didn’t seem the least bit distressed over a luxury car worth tens of millions being totaled was telling. He sighed and muttered under. His breath, when gods fight, mortals suffer. What Li could do now was to try to mediate between the two parties. If Kong Jin Yuan chose. Not to hold Wang Chen accountable, and since the case hadn’t been formally filed yet, it would be fine if Wang Chen paid a little. Compensation. If Kong Jin Yuan decided to pursue the matter and apply pressure from above, the case would escalate. That would be trouble. For Wang Chen. Although Wang Chen’s background was somewhat mysterious, Kong Jin Yuan’s father was the vice mayor of the magic city. That was not someone you could easily offend. If multiple charges were pressed, this overly handsome young man in front of him would be completely ruined. Li sighed slightly. There was no way around it. Now it all depended on the forces behind the two of them and the outcome of their game. Wang Chen, tell me what happened, Li said, putting down the documents and crossing his hands on the table. All he could do now was to handle the matter officially to avoid trouble from these two young masters later. Neither of them was someone he could afford to offend. At most, he could try to lean a bit in Wang Chen’s favor, after all, it would be a shame for someone so young to end up in prison. It was just an ordinary traffic accident, Wang Chen replied, shrugging his shoulders nonchalantly. Li frowned. Slightly, tapping his fingers lightly on the table. An ordinary traffic accident? Ding ding ding. Li’s phone suddenly rang, it was. A colleague at the racetrack. Li, there’s been a situation here. The person in charge of the racetrack said the surveillance equipment happened to malfunction earlier today and is currently under repair. malfunction? Li’s brows instantly furrowed into a shape, his tone unconsciously growing heavier. How could it be so coincidental? Check again carefully and see if you can recover the data. Wang Chen, hearing Li’s conversation with his colleague, maintained a calm expression on the surface. He instantly understood that this was most likely the doing of his father, Wang Jianguo. Was it really possible to handle the surveillance footage in just a few minutes? That was quite fast. At that moment, there was a knock on the door of the lounge. Come in, Li called out. The police officer who? had just entered reportedly, a woman has come outside, along with more than 10 lawyers from the Jin Tian City law firm, claiming they want to see Wang Chen. More than 10 lawyers. Li’s voice suddenly rose. Why bring so many lawyers? Did they want to resolve the case outside of court? Or were they trying to pressure the police station with this powerful legal team? Or perhaps they wanted to control the direction of the case comprehensively to exonerate Wang Chen? Various speculations swirled in Li’s mind, but none provided him with any clarity. They have submitted an application, all claiming to be Wang Chen’s defense lawyers, demanding to see him right. Now, the officer continued while Li was still brainstorming. Li said, speechless, let them wait in the reception room, I’ll be there shortly. He adjusted his police uniform and strode towards the reception room. As he pushed the door open, the room instantly fell silent and all eyes turned to him, inside stood a total of 18 impeccably dressed lawyers and a young girl. They stood there, holding briefcases, their backs straight as arrows. These individuals were the top lawyers from the Jin Tian City law firm in the Magic City. The golden badge on their chests was proof of their status. Team leader Li was somewhat taken aback. What were so many top lawyers from the Jin Tian City law firm doing here? The case hadn’t even been established yet. Wasn’t this a bit excessive? Li Meng watched. As team leader Li walked in, her expression anxious as she stepped forward and said, Captain Lin, hello. How is Wang Chin doing? Can I see him? Ma’am, Wang Chen is currently in the lounge, and his health is good, however, the case is still under investigation. Team leader Li replied. According to regulations, no one else can meet with him for the time being. As he spoke, he discreetly assessed. The anxious Li Meng and the formidable team of lawyers behind her. Li Meng’s eyes were filled with worry and urgency, her tone almost. Pleading as she said, Captain Lin, I’m a friend of Wang Chen. I’m just worried about him. Please help me, let me see him. Although Li. Changqing had told Li Meng not to worry, the Wang family was not that simple. However, after hanging up the phone, Li Meng couldn’t shake her concern and rush to find the best Jin Tian City law firm in the Magic City. In her panic, she didn’t care about anything else. Li Meng managed to gather all the top lawyers from the firm in one breath. That’s how this situation came to be. Team leader Li furrowed his brow, feeling somewhat troubled. Just then, a figure stepped out from the crowd. He appeared to be in his 50s, with a few strands of white hair at his temples, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He carried a briefcase in his hand. What stood out? particularly was the ring on his right hand’s ring finger. Its design was ancient, with a unique family crest intricately carved on the face of the ring, a token passed down through generations in the legal profession. Only those from prestigious families, who had upheld legal justice for generations and taken it upon themselves to maintain fairness, could earn the reputation and prestige necessary to possess this ring, symbolizing supreme honor and deep heritage. Hello, Captain Lee, I am Wang Yetting, a top lawyer from the Jin Tian City law firm. Captain Li slightly furrowed his brow and shook hands with Wang Yetting. It’s believed that no police officer enjoys dealing with lawyers. In Hua Gua, this group is often seen as troublemakers. Besides following procedures, they don’t play a crucial role. However, they can be quite bothersome. Of course, there are some lawyers with extensive connections and significant influence. But even so, they often don’t play a decisive role in cases, merely maneuvering through with their connections. Captain Li, I am here as Wang, Shen’s defense attorney, hoping to provide him with legal and professional assistance. Wang Yetting’s tone was calm, but the gaze behind his lenses was sharp and resolute. I understand the rigorous procedures of the police in handling cases and respect your work. However, as Wang Chen’s attorney, I have a responsibility to ensure his legal rights are fully protected. Wang Yetting’s words were reasonable and well-founded. Captain Li was left speechless, unable to find a reason to refuse, and could only nod in agreement. Then I’ll trouble you, Captain Li. I would like to see my client now. He’s in the lounge, follow me. I want to go too. Captain Li did not. refuse, leading Li Meng and Wang Yeting toward the lounge. After so many years on the front lines, he had seen enough of these young, masters open and covert struggles. A slight misstep could see him, a small police officer handling the case, caught in the eye of the storm, becoming an innocent victim. He arranged for Wang Chen to be in the lounge to facilitate visits, also leaving himself a sliver of hope, if he treated Wang Chen as an ordinary suspect and locked him away in a detention room, and if Kang Jin Yuen and Wang Chen ended. Up in a showdown, with Wang Chen emerging victorious, then he would be in trouble, moreover, it is the legal right of lawyers to visit their clients. Compared to dealing with ordinary lawyers, Wang Yeting was clearly extremely professional and very polite. He didn’t use legal jargon to intimidate anyone, which prevented any feelings of resistance from rising in team leader Li’s heart. It was just a matter of convenience. In the lounge, more than 10 lawyers suddenly poured in. They chose not to sit down but instead stood behind Wang Chen. Upon entering the lounge, Li Meng’s gaze was instantly drawn to Wang Chen, who was sitting on the sofa. She hurried over, her voice choked with emotion as she said, Wang Chen, I’m so glad you’re okay. I was so worried. I’m fine, sorry to make you worry, Wang. Chen replied, gently patting Li Meng’s shoulder. His eyes swept over the row of straight-back lawyers behind him, feeling deeply moved. Yet, he couldn’t help but think that this display was a bit excessive, stirring a sense of helplessness and speechlessness within him. Why did you bring so many lawyers? I know you’re worried about me, but this is a bit over the top, isn’t it? Li Meng sniffed, feeling a bit embarrassed as she said, I just didn’t want you to suffer any losses. You were taken to the police station, and I couldn’t. Think of much else, just that having more people is better than having fewer. Hello, Mr. Wang, I am Wang Yeting, a top lawyer. From Jinti Enching Law Firm. On behalf of Miss Li Meng, I will act as your legal advisor and handle your case in full, Wang Yeting introduced himself proactively while handing over a well-crafted business card. From now on, my team and I will do our utmost to provide you with professional legal services and strive to help you resolve this incident properly. Thank you for your trouble, Wang Shin said, as he took the business card and casually tucked it into his pocket, expressing his gratitude to Wang Yeting. No need to be polite. This is what we should do, Wang Yeting nodded slightly and continued. In order to defend you more comprehensively and accurately, I have the obligation and necessity to be present when the police question you. This not only ensures your legal rights but also allows me to provide timely advice. After Wang Yeting finished speaking, all the lawyers turned their attention to Team Leaderly. Under the gaze of so many lawyers, Team Leaderly felt overwhelmed. He cleared his throat to steady himself and looked at Wang Chen, saying, Let’s continue with the previous question and discuss what happened at that time. Wait a moment, Team Leaderly, I need to interrupt. Wang Yeting, standing next to Wang Chen, suddenly said, Why is the other party in this case, Kang Jin Yuan, not present? May I ask where he is now? Team leader Li frowned slightly and explained, Kong Jin -yuan has some injuries and is currently being treated in the hospital. He will cooperate with the subsequent investigation once he is done. Since Kong Jin-yuan is not at the scene, our client can completely refuse your request. According to relevant legal provisions, when a case involves multiple parties and key parties cannot be present for questioning at the same time, my client has the right to remain silent until all relevant parties can participate in the investigation, Wang Yeting smiled and said. Before the case is fully clarified, the questions you are asking and any incorrect descriptions may cause distress to our client. Team leader Li felt both helpless and a bit irritated. Having been a police officer for many years and dealt with various cases, he rarely encountered such a tricky lawyer. Based on the situation at the scene, Wang Chen and Kang Jin-yuan had a conflict, and the other party’s vehicle suffered severe damage, with Kang Jin -yuan also sustaining significant injuries. Wang Chen cannot escape the charge of intentional destruction of property. I am just trying to understand the situation. If you do not cooperate with my investigation, it will only make your client’s situation more difficult. Team Leaderly, as a frontline criminal investigator, you should know that handling a case requires evidence. Juan Yenning’s expression was calm as he said slowly. Before there is conclusive evidence, any speculation could lead to wrongful convictions. Evidence is the key to guiding the direction of the case, not hasty conclusions based solely on preliminary judgments at the scene. Moreover, according to my client’s description. He was driving normally with Miss Li Meng at the racetrack when he was maliciously cut off by Kong Jin Yuan. In a moment of panic, my client mistakenly pressed the accelerator instead of the brake, which led to the collision of the two vehicles. According to traffic laws, my client did not engage in dangerous driving behavior, let alone intentionally damage property. On the contrary, it seems that Kong Jin Yuan has a tendency for dangerous driving. Wang Yeting adjusted his glasses and continued, Captain Li, we have already. spoken to several eyewitnesses at the scene and they can all confirm that Kong Jin-yuan exhibited dangerous driving behavior multiple times before the incident, frequently cutting off other cars and speeding, posing a serious threat to other drivers on the track. If you, Captain Li, continue to be so arbitrary, I have the right to question the fairness of your law enforcement and I will report the situation to the relevant authorities. I will also file a lawsuit against the entire police station. Captain Li’s face instantly turned ashen. Wang Yetting’s calm tone, however, struck directly at the core of the matter, leaving no room for rebuttal. Captain Lee unconsciously rubbed the handle of his thermos cup, about to say something. There was another knock at the door. Come in, Captain. Lee shouted irritably. The door was gently pushed open and the same police officer cautiously peeked in. Upon seeing him, Captain Lee impatiently said before he could speak, What now? Can’t you see I’m busy? A hint of difficulty flashed across the officer’s face, after. hesitating for a moment he quickly walked to captain lee’s side leaned in close and whispered captain lee the mayor is here just outside what captain lee’s eyes widened at this instinctively exclaiming why has the mayor suddenly come captain lee the chief has already gone out to greet him you see the officer quietly reminded damn it lawyer wang i’m really sorry but i have to handle something first captain lee stood up and looked at wang yetting then he quickly walked towards the door instinctively glancing at Wang Chen before leaving. His gaze was filled with trepidation. Wang Chen’s background clearly exceeded his expectations. The mayor had obviously come for Wang Chen. Fortunately, he had not done anything out of line towards Wang Chen, adhering to the principle of handling matters officially from start to finish. It now seemed that the contest between the two sides had already determined a victor. At the entrance of the police station, a black Audi A6L came to a stop. The car door opened and the mayor’s secretary quickly got out from the front passenger seat. He hurried to the rear door, slightly bent down, and pulled it open with both hands. A man dressed in. An administrative jacket stepped out. He appeared to be in his 60s. His hair was neatly combed back, with a few strands of white at. The temples that did not detract from his authority but rather added a touch of calmness honed by years of experience. The visitor was. None other than the mayor of Modu City, Duan Wenjun. The police station’s chief, Mai Jilai, had been waiting at the entrance for quite. Some time. Upon seeing the mayor get out, Chief Mai immediately approached with a beaming smile, slightly bending forward to shake the mayor’s hand tightly, saying with a broad smile, Hello, mayor. I am Mai Jilay, the chief of this police station. Welcome to our humble place, it truly brings us great honor. You must be tired from your journey. It’s not really guidance, just a coincidence that I have. Time to come and take a look, Duan Wenjun chuckled lightly, as Modu is an important engine for our economic development, we must not only advance in economic construction but also prioritize social order and the rule of law. as the grassroots force maintaining. Social order, the burden on your shoulders is not light, and your contributions are invaluable. Dewan Wenjun paused slightly, his gaze, like a torch sweeping over Director Ma. Not at all. These are our duties, as public servants, it is our responsibility to safeguard the peace of our community. Director Ma’s face was still filled with smiles, his humble demeanor tinged with a hint of nervousness and anticipation. His mind raced, and his heart felt like it was in his throat. The mayor personally visiting their police station was. Certainly not a routine inspection. At the very least, it wasn’t to commend them. Although there had been quite a few cases recently. Everything had been handled methodically, with no major oversights. Could it be that some link had gone awry, involving some big shot, and? He was completely in the dark? As Director Ma pondered this, he discreetly observed the Mayor’s expression, trying to catch a hint of. A clue from his demeanor. Mayor Duan nodded and said, It’s great that you have this awareness. The uniform we wear is bestowed upon. Us by the people, it represents trust and, more importantly, a heavy responsibility. The only thing we can do is to devote ourselves wholeheartedly to serving the public. Director Ma, you must never distance yourself from the masses. Always remember to prioritize the interests of the people, Mayor Duan said meaningfully, looking at Director Ma as he spoke slowly. Upon hearing this, Ma Gile’s expression changed instantly. Having navigated the political arena for decades, he had honed the skill of reading between the lines. An instant, he realized that Mayor Dewan’s words carried deeper meaning. This was not a routine inspection. The mayor was clearly here. To hold them accountable. Magile’s mind raced like a revolving lantern, quickly retracing the recent work of the station, trying to figure out which link had gone wrong to provoke the mayor’s personal visit. He forced himself to appear calm, but cold sweat broke out. On his back, struggling to muster a smile that was more painful than crying, he said, Mayor, rest assured, I have always kept the people’s matters at the forefront of my mind. Majile paused for a moment and cautiously added, Mayor, is there something I did wrong? If there’s anything I’ve mishandled in my work, please feel free to criticize and correct me. I will definitely rectify it immediately. And will not be dismissive. Mayor Dewan squinted slightly at Majile, and after a moment, he smiled and said, it’s not that serious. Don’t be so tense. I came this time because someone reported to me that two young people had a bit of a conflict, and it just. So happened to be in your jurisdiction. This is a minor issue, young people can be hot-headed and impulsive, which is quite normal. A. Little mediation should suffice. After all, everyone was young once, we must give young people a chance. Director Ma wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead and said, Mayor, thanks to your timely reminder, we will definitely treat this matter as a current. Priority. It’s quite normal for young people to make mistakes, very normal. Mayor Duan nodded and continued, as far as I know. Your station only brought back one of them, while neglecting the other, who is still out there having fun. What’s going on here? Director. Ma, can you explain this to me? Mayor Dewan’s words struck like a heavy hammer, landing hard on Director Ma’s heart. Director Ma’s. Smile froze instantly, his face alternating between shades of green and white. He was momentarily dumbfounded. What was going on? Ma. She lay had no idea. However, the meaning behind Mayor Dewan’s words was already very clear, their police station had not done its job. Properly. It was evident that they had apprehended the wrong person. If this matter was not handled well, his position as director would. Be at risk. Director Ma swallowed hard, calming his nerves as he said, Mayor, this, this is indeed a serious dereliction of our duties. Don’t worry, I’m not here to hold you accountable, Mayor Dewan waved his hand slightly, a gentle expression appearing on his face. And his tone became more relaxed, the urgent task now is to resolve the issue and handle this conflict properly. If we manage the young people’s affairs well, it’s a small matter, if not, it could lead to a major disaster. You are wearing this uniform, and every move you make affects the public’s trust in us. We must not let any bias arise that would disappoint the people. Magile. Nodded repeatedly, secretly lamenting that if this matter was not handled well he might really be dismissed. He took a deep breath and. Said solemnly, Mayor, rest assured, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and provide you and the public with a satisfactory. Response. At that moment Captain Lee hurriedly ran out from the lounge. When he saw Mayor Dewan and the director standing at the door. Captain Lee froze in place for a moment, a flash of panic crossing his face. He quickly straightened his police uniform, stepped forward, stood at attention, and shouted loudly, Good day, Mayor. Mayor Duan nodded slightly. Captain Lee, you arrived just in time. Director. Ma was troubled about how to handle the matter mentioned by Mayor Duan. After all, he didn’t know the specific details, and seeing Captain Lee come out, he quickly waved him over. Director, is there something you need? Captain Lee asked, somewhat puzzled. At this moment, he certainly knew that Mayor Duan was most likely looking for Wang Chen. But that didn’t stop him from playing dumb. Director Ma. Directly asked in front of the mayor, Did we receive a report today in our jurisdiction? There was a conflict between two young men? Yes, there is such a case, Captain Lee replied. I heard that only one was arrested and the other is still outside? That’s correct. Captain Lee nodded. Director Ma’s eyes widened in anger as he questioned, Then why wasn’t the other one brought back? Captain Lee’s. Heart tightened, but he still maintained an innocent expression and said, Director, the other party was injured and my colleague is. taking him to the hospital for treatment are you still pretending to be confused director ma sneered how come i heard he’s not in the hospital but out having fun upon hearing this captain lee showed a shocked expression and waved his hands repeatedly this how is that possible director the information i received was that he was in the hospital i’ve been busy handling related matters and haven’t had the chance to confirm it personally it must be a problem down the line that allowed him to escape i will verify it immediately are you brainless Can’t you assign a few more people to keep watch? Now that he’s run away, you don’t even know it. I give you one hour to find him and bring him back. If you dare to mess up again, be prepared to pack your things and leave. Director Ma glared at Captain Lee fiercely, speaking angrily. This fool usually seemed quite clever, but at a critical moment he did something so stupid. And now he didn’t even notify him about the arrests? Director Ma was seething with anger, not giving Captain Lee any face. He was struggling to save himself, so how could he care about him? Director Ma, don’t be too anxious. Mayor Dewan raised his hand to gesture, speaking in a gentle tone. Since the incident has already occurred, our priority is to resolve the problem. Grassroots work is inherently complex and trivial, and it’s inevitable that some unexpected situations and mistakes will arise. I understand your difficulties. His gaze turned to Captain Lee, and he continued, this incident is indeed a lesson, but I believe you also overlooked something. Young people make mistakes, it’s not terrible. What’s important is to learn from those mistakes. Consider this and experience, and I hope you can resolve this matter properly. Upon hearing this, Captain Lee knew that hiding the matter about Kong Jin-yuan from the mayor would not benefit him. He voluntarily confessed, Mayor, the cause of this incident was a conflict between Vice Mayor Kong’s son, Kong Jin-yuan, and another party, Wang Chen. Because Kong Jin-yuan has some injuries, his colleagues took into the hospital first. Then how did he run away? Director Ma frowned, secretly lamenting. No wonder Mayor Dewan was concerned about this small case, it turned out to involve Vice Mayor Kong. That makes sense. Captain Li looked troubled and somewhat at a loss. Mayor Duan chuckled lightly, Vice Mayor Kong? He he, I’m afraid we can’t call him that anymore. Where is Wang Chen being held? Not held, not held. I arranged for Wang Chen to be in the lounge. Captain Li wiped his sweat and hurriedly said. Upon hearing this, Mayor Duan no longer paid attention to Director Ma and Captain Li, and walked straight into the police station. What the hell are you still doing here? Hurry up and catch him. Director Ma was furious at seeing Captain Li still in a daze. He kicked him in the rear and shouted, what does it matter? Who he is? Don’t you know that everyone is equal before the law? If you don’t bring him back within an hour, you can pack your things and get out. Captain Lee stumbled from the kick, not daring to delay any further. He didn’t even bother. To brush off the footprints on his back and rushed back to the office, shouting, everyone assemble. In the blink of an eye, the officers quickly lined up in front of him and then jumped into their cars, speeding away. In the lounge, Mayor Duan, entered with his secretary, followed by a grinning director Ma. You must be Wang Chen? Mayor Duan’s gaze swept over the crowd and landed on Wang Chen. Wang Chen looked up at Mayor Duan, somewhat confused, Who are you? I’m Duan Wenjun. Sent by your father to check on you, Mayor Duan smiled, his eyes filled with warmth and concern. Mayor Duan, what brings you here? Li Meng stood up from the sofa in the lounge, her eyes wide with disbelief. Hearing her voice, Mayor Duan turned his head and saw a hint of surprise flash in Li Meng’s eyes. But he quickly returned to his gentle smile, the girl from the Li family. What are you doing here? Li Meng’s cheeks flushed slightly as she nervously replied, I’m a friend of. Wang Chen. I heard he got into trouble, so I came to see. I didn’t expect to see you here, I. I’m so surprised. Mayor Duan? Wang Chen was stunned. His dad was this impressive, even getting the mayor to come. Your father and I have been old. Classmates for many years, just call me Uncle Duan, Duan when Jun smiled. Your father is very concerned about you, afraid you might be wrong, and he called me several times, giving me quite the scolding. He was worried you might be bullied. at the police station, repeatedly urging me to come and check on you, even threatening me that if I didn’t handle it well, I wouldn’t have any classmates left. As he spoke, Duan Wenjun shook his head helplessly but a smile lingered on his face. It was clear that he had a very close relationship with Wang Chen’s father. As soon as these words were spoken, the entire room fell silent. What kind of background did Wang Chen’s father have that even Mayor Duan dared to scold him? The looks directed at Wang Chen were filled with awe. Hearing this, Wang Chen stood up, scratched his head, and said, then I’ll call you Uncle Duan. I really appreciate you taking the trouble for such a small matter. Li Meng looked at Wang Chen. Beside her, her expression complex. It turned out that what her father said was true. Wang Chen’s family had such power that even the mayor could be summoned. Recalling how she had just comforted Wang Chen not to worry, Li Meng’s face flushed. Her toes were practically digging into the shoe saws. So embarrassing. Director Ma, standing at the door on standby, was also drenched in cold sweat. Damn it. What kind of person did they catch? Captain Li had brought back a living Yama. Mayor. Duan’s earlier words had already revealed a lot, not to mention the relationship with Wang Chen’s father’s classmates, just the fact that he was scolded is unusual. This is the mayor of Magic City. A leader at the ministerial level. Foreign. Ordinary person, not to mention being classmates, even their own father would be treated with great respect, not daring to offend easily. But Wang Chen’s dad just scolded him without any leniency. Mayor Duan seemed quite pleased. Is this the kind? A person that Kong Jin-yuan can provoke? He must have eaten the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard. It looks like Vice Mayor Kong is really going to be finished this time. This troublesome thing. Director Ma shook his head secretly. His face full of helplessness and regret. Mayor Duan smiled and gestured for Wang Chen to sit down, speaking in a kind tone, don’t worry too much, this matter will have a result soon. If you have suffered any grievances since you came in, you can tell me, Uncle Duan will stand up for you. As soon as these words were spoken, Director Ma’s face turned pale and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead. Li team leader, please don’t do anything excessive. Otherwise, the entire police station will suffer today. The look in his eyes towards Wang Chen was full of pleading. I’m sorry to worry you, I haven’t suffered any grievances. Wang Chen’s lips curled slightly as he smiled. Team leader Li is quite fair. He didn’t favor Kong Jin Yuan just because his father is the vice mayor. Wang Chen actually appreciated team leader Li. At least he didn’t target him because of Kong Jin Yuan’s pressure. Instead, he let him stay in the lounge. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t be excessive to handcuff him in the detention room. Completely legal and compliant. Upon hearing this, Ma Jilay immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He felt as if he had walked through the gates of hell, his legs. Weak, almost unable to stand. He raised his hand to wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead, his hand still trembling slightly. Director Ma looked at Wang Chen with gratitude. If he had said something slightly negative just now, he wouldn’t be able to continue as the director. What a good young man. Thick eyebrows and big eyes full of righteousness. He looks like a good kid. Team leader Lee must be blind to have brought him back. It’s good that you haven’t suffered any grievances. Otherwise I wouldn’t know how to explain it to your father. Speaking of which, it’s still my responsibility. As the mayor of Magic City, such a thing happening and making you feel anxious in the police station is a dereliction of my duty. Mayor. Dewan said sincerely. No, no, no, the main responsibility lies with me. I didn’t manage my subordinates well. Upon hearing this, Director Ma quickly stepped forward, almost bending at a 90-degree angle, and said, all the mistakes are mine. As the director, I fail to fulfill my leadership role, almost causing a major mistake, I truly deserve to die a thousand deaths. Seeing this, Wang Chin smiled gently and said, Uncle Duan, Director Ma, you both shouldn’t say that. This is. Just a conflict between me and Kong Jun Yuan, please don’t take the responsibility upon yourselves. Team leader Li and the others are just fulfilling their duties, misunderstandings are inevitable, and it’s quite normal. After all, it’s not. Easy for team leader Li to withstand the pressure from Kong Jin-yuan. Upon hearing this, Mayor Duan said dismissively, Kong Jin-yuan is just a spoiled rich kid relying on his father’s power to act recklessly. In recent years, his father has been quite powerful in the officialdom and the people below have also started to act a bit recklessly. Mayor Duan smiled and continued, I just transferred to Magic City and haven’t had the chance to deal with him and now he has handed me the handle, isn’t that a coincidence? Don’t worry, since you have suffered grievances, Uncle Duan will definitely help you seek justice. He smiled at Wang Chen and said, a junior dares to be so arrogant and domineering, if we continue to let it go, won’t it turn the entire Magic City upside down? It’s time for the Kong family to calm down, Magic City is not a place for a small Kong family to stir up trouble. Wang Chen nodded thoughtfully to IT scenes that Mayor Duan has. His own thoughts on the matter. After all, it’s also to support himself, and Wang Chen will definitely cooperate without hesitation. Just as everyone was conversing, a sudden commotion erupted outside. Wang Chen? Damn it! How can such a… Big police station have no one around? Why is it so hard to find someone? The voice was loud and carried a hint of displeasure, making it particularly jarring in the quiet corridor. Immediately after, with a loud bang, the lounge door was kicked open. A general in a crisp military uniform, with shining gold stars on his epaulets, strode in. Behind him followed several tall and upright guards. He appeared to be in his forties, with a square face and a tall, robust figure. For a moment, all eyes in the room were focused on him. Gao Xiong, seeing Mayor Duan inside, was momentarily taken aback, his face showing surprise, oh, Lao Duan, you’re actually here? Mayor Duan looked at Gao Xiong, the corners of his mouth slightly. Lifting, revealing a smile that seemed to carry deeper meaning, Lao Gao, what are you doing? You come in with such a big show. Ha, no need to rush, Gao Xiong laughed heartily. As he spoke, he scanned the room with his eyes, finally landing. On Wang Chen, you must be Wang Chen? Wang Chen was filled with confusion and instinctively nodded, I am. May I ask who you are? Gao Xiong took a couple of steps forward, patted Wang Chen on the shoulder, and said with a smile, I am Gao. Xiong, the commander of the garrison in Magic City. Your grandfather sent me. That old man heard you got into trouble here and was anxious, specifically instructing me to bring you back safely. I was actually outside training new recruits, but I rushed back as soon as I got the call. Li Meng had become somewhat numb. Her delicate, moist lips parted slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately held back. Wang Chen’s background was more than just complicated. It was. likely connected to the heavens. Director Ma, standing nearby, felt his scalp tingle at the scene. Every hair on his body stood on end. Wang Chen’s background was unexpectedly terrifying. It was simply horrifying. The mayor personally intervening was one thing, but now even the garrison commander had come because of him. He silently lamented, have I stirred up a hornet’s nest? This is never ending. One must know that the commander of the garrison in Magic City held the rank of Major. General. Wang Chen’s father’s close relationship with Mayor Duan had already shocked Director Ma. Now, with the emergence of Commander Xiong, and judging by his tone, he showed great respect for Wang Chen’s grandfather. This was no small matter. In Hua Gua, the separation of J and Z is enforced. Unless one becomes a backer, otherwise, who would dare to touch? So Wang Chen’s family is. As Ma Jilay thought of this, he shivered, not daring to think any further. Oh heavens! This is a child of H. Director Ma wanted to cry but had no tears. Dammit, why did he have to encounter such a situation? A group of lawyers had also lost the proud demeanor they had when they first arrived. They were now huddled in a corner. Trembling. Wang Yeting stroked his chin, murmuring, what am I doing here? I could still make it home for dinner. Mayor Duan looked at Gao Xiong and then at Wang Chen, a gentle smile on his face as he said, the old man even called Commander. Gao here, truly worried that you might have suffered some grievances. That kid from the Kong family has really gotten bold, daring to bully you. I will not let him off lightly. Commander Gao nodded in agreement from the side. Wang Chen, side inwardly, realizing that his grandfather was quite remarkable. This was the commander of the garrison in Magic City. With him backing Wang Chen, it was enough to walk sideways in Magic City. This is troublesome. Wang Chen, at a loss for words, could only politely say something. Gao Xiong laughed heartily. What trouble are you talking about? There’s no need to be polite with me. Your business is my business. He patted Wang Chen’s shoulder, his tone full of camaraderie. Seeing. Bet your fine puts me at ease, otherwise, I wouldn’t know how to explain it to your grandfather. Mayor Duan stood up, looking at my gilet. Under that gaze, Director Mai instinctively shivered, his head drooping immediately. Mayor Duan. Slowly said, Director Ma, Wang Chin doesn’t blame you, but you must understand that this is not a reason for you to relax, it’s a favor you should remember. You must not let fairness slip away. You need to understand what should be done and what shouldn’t. Understood. Director Ma straightened up, hurriedly nodding, I will personally follow up on the case details, ensuring absolute fairness and justice, not wronging a good person nor letting a bad one go. This was the opportunity. Mayor Duan had given him. A chance to make amends. If he still didn’t understand, he would have wasted decades in the officialdom. It would be a shame for Mayor Duan’s efforts to be in vain, completely ruining his future. Ma Jilay felt. Even more grateful to Wang Chen, without his words, he might not even have had the chance to make amends. Good. Mayor Duan sat back down on the sofa, looking at my xilay, then Commander Gao and I will wait here, the rest depends on your performance. Wang Chen looked at Mayor Duan and Gao Xiong, sincerely saying, Uncle Duan, Commander Gao, thank you so much today. If you hadn’t arrived in time, I really wouldn’t know what to do. Don’t take these matters to heart, maintaining. Good order in Modu and safeguarding the rights of every citizen is our duty. Today’s incident was just an accident, don’t take it too seriously. Mayor Duan smiled gently, speaking earnestly. Commander Gao’s eyes widened, pretending to be. Angry, hey, I say, you brat, why do you call Uncle Duan uncle but call me Commander Gao? How come you’re so distant? From now on, don’t be so formal, call me Uncle Gao. Saying this, Gao Xiong stepped forward and patted Wang Chen’s shoulder. Heavily. Uncle Gao, Uncle Gao. Wang Chen winced from the slap, hurriedly changing his words. Only then did Gao Xiong smile in satisfaction, the wrinkles on his face radiating warm, that’s more like it. In the future, no matter what difficulties you encounter, just tell your Uncle Gao, my words still carry weight in this little corner of Modu. What’s going on? What are you all doing? How long has it been? You can’t even find information on an outsider, am I feeding you? All for nothing? Kang Jin-yuan said, slamming his phone down on the tea table. The phone case cracked instantly, parts scattering everywhere. He paced back and forth in the room, growing increasingly impatient. After sending Wang Chen to the police station, Kang Jin-yuan was still uneasy and kept looking for connections. He had people continue investigating Wang Chen’s identity while also trying to get Wang Chen’s company under his name. However, he never expected that Wang Chen’s Identity background would still yield no useful information. The company seemed to be protected by an invisible shield. As soon as his people made contact, they were blocked by various procedures and inexplicable obstacles. Useless, all of you. Are useless. Kong Jin-yuan roared in anger, kicking over a nearby chair. Young master, why don’t we take a step back? The movements from all sides are too great right now, if we keep pushing hard, it might cause even bigger trouble. The old. Steward of the Kong family stood by, cautiously advising. He had followed the Kong family for many years, but this incident clearly exceeded his expectations, and he felt a vague sense of unease. Take a step back? Kong Jin Yuan turned his head, glaring at the old steward with a nearly mad look. How do you expect me to take a step back? Now the whole city knows that I, Kong Jin Yuan, am going after that Wang Chen, yet I can’t even find a single hair on him, and I’m being countered by his people. How am I supposed to survive in Magic City from now on? The old butler opened his mouth but didn’t know how to respond. He knew in his heart that this time Kong Jin Yuen had truly hit a brick wall, but he didn’t dare to say it outright, fearing he might anger the young master. Kong Jin Yuen, feeling a bit irritated, ran his fingers through his hair. Should he notify his father? But if he did that, his father would definitely not let him off the hook. He knew his father’s temper all too well. Usually, he turned a blind eye to his reckless behavior outside, but that was only because he hadn’t caused any major trouble. But this time, he had provoked someone whose background he couldn’t even investigate, and it had stirred up a storm in the city. His father would surely explode in anger when he found out. At that point, even being skinned alive would be considered like punishment. Just then, a series of urgent doorbell rings echoed outside the villa. Can’t you see I’m already upset? Who is it? Kong Jin Yuan shouted irritably. The old butler hurriedly jogged to the door to check. Through the display screen, he saw several people in police uniforms, with the leader being captainly from the criminal investigation team of the police station. The old butler’s heart sank, a sense of foreboding washing over him. He trembled as he called out to Kong Jin Yuan, young master, it’s, it’s the police. Upon hearing this, Kong Jin Yuan was first taken aback, then a hint of panic flashed across his face. But he quickly forced himself to appear calm and said, police? What do they want? Don’t panic, I’ll go take a look. He took a deep breath to steady his emotions. After tidying up his somewhat disheveled clothes, he strode toward the door. Kong Jin Yuan looked at Captain Li and pretended to be relaxed, saying, oh, Captain Li, what brings you here? Captain Li ignored his pleasantries and directly presented the Arrest warrant, coldly stating, Kong Jin-yuan, you are formally arrested for suspected malicious injury, dangerous driving, and obstructing judicial investigation. Please come with us. Hearing this, a flash of panic crossed Kong Jin-yuan’s eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a fierce glare. A mocking smile crept onto his lips, you think you can arrest me with just these pieces of paper? Captain Li, are you sure I’m someone you can afford to offend? The evidence is conclusive, and I’m following legal procedures. I ask that young master Kong not resist unnecessarily, Captain Li said, unfazed, in a serious tone. Kong Jin-yuan crossed his arms, showing no intention of cooperating, and said, my dad is Kong Zong-yao, even. The leaders of your city bureau have to treat me with some respect. You should weigh your options and see if you dare to move against me. Captain Li frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, in the eyes of the law, everyone is equal, no one is above the law. Equal? Kong Jin-yuan burst into laughter as if he had heard the biggest joke, don’t preach to me about principles. If you dare to take me away, this arrest warrant will be revoked within half an hour, and then you better not regret it. Captain Lee said no more and turned to his colleagues, cuff him and take him back. Two police officers quickly stepped forward and swiftly subdued Kong Jin-yuan, putting handcuffs on him. Kong Jin-yuan was instantly stunned. He never expected that Captain Lee would actually dare to ignore his threats and cuff him. It took him a while to regain his senses. He suddenly exploded with rage, crashing his body and shouting loudly, Do you know who I am? I am Kong Jin-yuan. My dad is Kong Zong-yuan. We know, and we’re arresting you. Captain Li replied irritably, behave yourself, we’ll talk back at the station. It was because of this Kong Jin Yuan that he had been scolded by the station chief. Captain Li. Naturally had no good feelings toward him. Not using a memory recovery technique on him at this moment was already a sign of his professionalism. Just wait, when I get out, I will make you all pay the price. Get him in the car. Captain Li took. Out the hood he always carried with him and put it on Kong Jin Yuan. Just as Kong Jin Yuan was being escorted to the police car, a hurried sound of footsteps approached. The old butler of the Kong family ran over, panting heavily. Seeing Kong, Jin Yuan handcuffed and wearing a black hood. Wait! His face instantly turned pale and he hurriedly shouted, don’t take the young master away yet. Captain Lee stopped in his tracks, his gaze cold as he looked at the old butler and asked, what else is there? The old butler trembled as he took out his phone from his pocket and said, vice mayor Kong’s call, he wants to speak with you. Captain Li hesitated for a moment but still reached out to take the phone. On the other. End. A deep voice came from Kong Zongyao. Captain Li, this is Kong Zongyao. I know my son has made a mistake and I will not cover for him. But this matter is significant and I hope you can handle it according to the proper procedures and give me a chance to understand the situation. Vice Mayor Kong, we are acting according to the law and all procedures will be open and transparent so you can rest assured. Captain Li replied, his expression softening slightly. After hanging. Up the phone, Captain Lee said to the old butler, you can inform Vice Mayor Kong to keep an eye on the case’s progress at any time. After saying that, he signaled to his colleagues to escort Kong Jingyuan into the police car. Sitting in the police car, Kong Jingyuan felt an inexplicable sense of foreboding rising in his heart. He had thought that with his father intervening, Captain Lee would surely release him immediately. However, judging from his father’s attitude just now, this matter seemed far from simple. Upon arriving at the police station, two police officers nearly dragged Kong Jin-yuan inside, one on each side. Captain Li led Kong Jin -yuan straight to the lounge, knocking on the door. Come in. As Kong Jin-yuan walked in and focused his gaze, he saw Wang Chen and Li Meng sitting on the sofa, accompanied by 18 lawyers and two somewhat familiar middle-aged men. Wait a minute. This is the mayor and commander Gao. Kong Jin-yuan’s face instantly turned pale. Mayor, commander, what are you doing here? Duan Wenjun turned to look at Kong Jin-yuan, his expression imposing without anger. Kong Jin-yuan, you have some nerve. Commander Gao crossed his arms and snorted coldly. Kid, do you dare to stir up trouble in Magic City just because your dad is the vice mayor? Is this how your father usually teaches you? Kong Jin-yuan’s lips trembled slightly. He wanted to speak but was choked by fear. His legs felt weak, almost unable to support him. At that moment, he was filled with regret. The arrogance he had before completely vanished without a trace. He certainly recognized Duan Wenjun and Gao Xiong. Duan Wenjun was his father’s superior and Z enemy. Gao Xiong was the commander of the Magic City Garrison. These two were figures his father had repeatedly warned him never to provoke, especially Commander Gao who was a powerful major general. If Commander Gao wanted to deal with their family, he could easily use his power to interfere in some key matters. The Kong family’s shady businesses and operations would collapse like a row of dominoes. The Kong family would face no unexpected events being uprooted entirely. There would be no way back. Even if his retired grandfather spoke up, it would be of no use. Kang Jin-yuan never expected that Duan Wenjun and Commander Gao would appear here together. Moreover, judging by their expressions, they were clearly extremely dissatisfied with. Him. Mayor, Commander, why are you here? Kang Jin -yuan shrank his neck and asked cautiously. Mayor Duan snorted coldly, what are we doing here? You should know in your heart. Commander Gao slammed the table suddenly, causing the teacups on. It to shake and emit a crisp sound, you brat, running rampant in Magic City, relying on your father being the vice mayor, recklessly endangering others’ lives as if it’s a game. Do you have any respect for the law? Do you have any sense of? Justice? The voice of Commander Gao echoed in the lounge, causing a buzzing in Kong Jin Yuan’s ears. The sudden sound of the table being slammed startled Kong Jin Yuan, making him tremble all over, his legs going weak as he collapsed to the ground. His face was filled with terror, cold sweat continuously dripping from his forehead and his back was already soaked. With a voice trembling with a hint of crying, Kong Jin-yuan pleaded, Gao, Commander Gao, Mayor, I, I was wrong, I, truly know I was wrong, please spare me this time. Even the dullest person would realize what was happening. Mayor Duan and Commander Gao were standing up for Wang Chen. Kong Jin-yuan couldn’t understand. Wang Chen was just a young man from a small place studying in Magic City, how could he possibly have these two big figures backing him? His mind was a mess, filled with confusion and fear. Kong Jin-yuan was scared. Wang Chan had Mayor Duan and Commander Gao supporting him. Today, it wasn’t just him who was doomed. Even his father might be implicated. Just thinking about this made Kong Jin Yuan shiver. He sat on the ground, his body trembling uncontrollably. Unwilling to give up, Kong Jin Yuan looked up at them and said. Commander Gao, Mayor Duan, this is just a small conflict, you two don’t need to intervene, right? Small conflict? You maliciously cut someone off, endangering their life, is that a small conflict? You abused your power to interfere with the… Police’s normal law enforcement, sending Wang Chen here, is that a small conflict? Upon hearing this, Commander Gao’s anger intensified. I see you are lawless and reckless, today, you must receive a profound lesson. Mayor Duan spoke calmly. Wang Chen has just been sent in by you, and you are already eager to take over the company under his name, is this what you call a small conflict? I also heard that you are particularly concerned about Wang Chen’s family’s information, what? Do you want to take them all down? Kang Jin Yuan’s lips trembled slightly, wanting to refute but finding no reason. His face turned increasingly pale, his eyes filled with despair and helplessness. I, I, Kong Jingyuan stammered, cold sweat, rolling down his forehead, soaking the ground in front of him. Mayor, Commander, I really know I was wrong, I deserve to die a thousand deaths. My dad has done a lot for Magic City, please spare me and my family. Kong Jingyuan cried, his voice hoarse from excessive agitation. From the moment you used your connections, this matter is no longer something you can just back out of. All these years, you have relied on being Kong Zongyao’s son to oppress many people in Magic City. Why didn’t you think that disaster wouldn’t reach your family back then? Mayor Duan said lightly. Commander Gao looked at him with disgust and said, Now you know to beg us? When you were reckless, did you ever think about the consequences? Do you think a single plea for mercy can erase this? Weren’t you investigating Wang Chen’s family’s background, planning to take them all down? Alright, call your dad right now and have them all dealt with. I want to see what kind of joke a deputy mayor and a retired old man from the Kong family can make. I, I dare not. Kang Jin-yuan finally squeezed out a few words, his voice as weak as a mosquito’s buzz. At this moment he no longer had the arrogance of the past, only endless regret and worry about his future fate. You dare not? Duan Wenjun looked at Kang Jin-yuan’s disheveled appearance, his expression cold and unmoved, I see you are quite bold. Now you know fear? It’s too late. Commander Gao said lightly. Are you feeling unconvinced? Do you think Wang Chen ended up in this situation because of our connections? Let me tell you, Wang Chen’s father is the chairman of Xianfeng Heavy Industry Group. For a playboy like you, a xianfeng-heavy industry group might seem insignificant. But what if I add that his mother is the founder of Huayao Group? By the way, you probably don’t even know who Wang Chen’s grandfather is, right? After all, he was just a retired old man, but in the middle of Y, he was a highly respected figure. Kid, how dare you? Commander Ga shook his head, his eyes filled with pity as he continued, you think you can act recklessly just because of your father’s little power, yet you have no idea of who you are provoking. Kang Jin-yuan’s eyes widened in shock, his previously pale face now devoid of color, resembling a blank sheet of paper. Commander Gao’s words echoed repeatedly in his mind. The descriptions of Wang Chen’s family. Background struck him like thunderclaps, resounding in his ears. The son of the chairman of the Pioneer Heavy Industry Group, the founder of Huayao Group is his mother, and his grandfather is a highly respected figure in the central government. These phrases swirled in his mind, plunging his thoughts into utter chaos. No. How is this possible, impossible, he muttered, his voice weak and trembling, filled with disbelief and deep fear. Kang Jinyuan finally understood why he had never been able to uncover Wang Chen’s family background. The pioneer heavy industry group, let alone him, even these two big shots in front of him, would not dare to underestimate. It was a significant presence in the national industrial sector, capable of stirring up tremendous waves with every move. As for Huayao Group, it was related to the national economy and people’s livelihoods, and the founder’s influence was unfathomable. As for Wang Chan’s grandfather being highly respected in the central government, it meant he had immeasurable influence on the political stage of the entire Hua Gua. An old retired man with such power could only indicate that he had once held a significant position or had reached the pinnacle of success. In front of such figures, he and his father were like ants, easily crushed by a single finger. Kang Jin-yuan thought of his actions towards Wang Chan, and under extreme fear, his stomach churned violently, nearly making him vomit. He finally understood why Wang Chen always appeared so calm and composed while he had been boasting about capturing Wang Chen’s entire family. Kang Jin Yuan looked at the few people in front of him, opened his mouth to argue. It was. Wang Chen who had damaged his car. If he hadn’t reacted quickly and jumped out, he would probably still be lying in the hospital. This was clearly Wang Chen’s fault. How had it turned into all his problems now? But Kang Jin Yuan swallowed his. Words. Did it even matter to say these things now? Besides making himself look more ridiculous and unreasonable, it couldn’t change any facts. The right and wrong of the situation were no longer something congenuine’s one-sided words could alter. He knew in his heart that even if the car accident was true, it was his subsequent abuse of power and malicious retaliation that truly led him to this dire situation. He had treated Wang Chen like those he could bully at will in the past. But he often failed to realize that today, just a friend brought by Li Meng had put him in such an irretrievable predicament. Once, as the son of the vice mayor, the fearful gazes and flattering smiles from others had inflated his vanity and arrogance to an infinite extent. In his eyes, his father’s power was his golden ticket to immunity. It was the capital that allowed him to trample on rules and do as he pleased. Each time he resolved issues through connections only. Reinforced his belief that he was superior. Laws and morals were merely shackles binding ordinary people, irrelevant to him. Those he had bullied could only seethe in anger without daring to speak out, which further fueled his arrogance. In his Eyes, those wealthy yet powerless individuals were nothing but lambs to the slaughter, at his mercy. He felt high and mighty, able to manipulate their lives at will. The wealth of those people was merely something he could easily seize using. His father’s power.I and his limited understanding, as long as his father’s position remained intact, he could walk through the streets of Magic City with impunity. No matter how grave the mistakes he made, there was always a way to downplay the big issues and resolve the small ones. This distorted perception led him deeper into the abyss of sin, until today, when he faced consequences he could no longer bear. Truly, the cycle of heaven’s justice is unerring. Everything is fate, and, not a bit is up to man. Kang Jin-yuan raised his head, his eyes filled with pleading and helplessness. His voice trembled to the point of being almost inaudible, Commander Gao, Mayor Duan, I really know I was wrong. I won’t. Dare again, I swear. I beg you for one chance, I am willing to take all the responsibility, I only ask that you spare my family, they are innocent, I implore you to show mercy. Kong Jun Yuan’s gaze was fixed on Commander Gao and Mayor Duan, his eyes brimming with desperation. At this moment he resembled a parched traveler in the desert. On the brink of collapse he caught a glimpse of the last mirage in the distance a flicker of hope he knew might be illusory. Yet he still exerted all his strength to grasp it even if it was in vain. What happened between him and Wang Chen was merely a small matter. If Mayor Duan and Commander Gao were willing to let him off the hook perhaps everything could still turn around. This thought echoed incessantly in Kong Jin-yuan’s mind, as if it were his only lifeline. At the very least, he had to preserve his father’s position. His father’s position was not only the foundation of the Kong family but also the source of his arrogance over the years. If he couldn’t even protect that, then the Kong family would truly be finished. Kong Jin -yuan, do you still not understand? Mayor Duan looked at Kong Jin-yuan before him, shaking his head, a hint of complex emotion in his eyes. The Kong family had established roots in Magic City a century ago, weathering storms and once enjoying great prominence. Yet, who would have thought that in this generation there would emerge such a useless end? Debauched Sion as Kong Jin Yuan, causing such calamity. The century-old foundation of the Kong family was likely to be destroyed by his hands. Provoking Wang Chen was tantamount to provoking one of the most powerful factions in Hua Gua. Moreover, Kong Jin Yuan still couldn’t see the situation clearly. Was begging him and Commander Gao of any use? Even if he and Gao Xiong were willing to help the Kong family, they were but ants shaking a tree in front of the colossal Wang family. Furthermore, before Wang Chen spoke, Mayor Duan and Commander Gao would never dare to make any decisions on their own. With a background like Wang Chen’s, not to mention them, even those at a higher level would not dare to intervene lightly. After all, he was just a minor S-level official in Magic City and Commander Gao was merely the head of the local J-district. With the Wang family’s elder having spoken, if he dared to speak up for Kong Jin-yuan, he would have to clear out his office tonight. Kang Jin-yuan listened to Mayor Duan’s words, his body jolting as if doused with a bucket of ice water from head to toe. The last flicker of hope in his heart was extinguished. Slowly, Kang Jin-yuan raised his head, his gaze passing over Mayor Duan and Commander Gao, landing on Wang Chen, who stood to the side. Wang Chen still wore an air of indifference, his eyes carrying a hint of aloofness, as if everything before him had nothing to do with him. This calmness and composure stirred a complex emotion within Kang Jin-yuan. There was both unwillingness and anger, but more than that, a profound sense of powerlessness. Kong Jin Yuan’s lips trembled slightly, his voice hoarse and low, tinged. With suppressed emotion, Wang Chen. I admit my fault in this matter. I apologize to you. Kong Jin Yuan lowered his proud head. He had completely lost his former pride and dignity, but he had no other choice. Wang Chen glanced at. Him, standing up. He spoke lightly, his tone flippant and tinged with mockery. Oh, young master Kong, you’re bowing your head now? What happened to that arrogance from before? Didn’t you say you were going to ruin my whole family? What’s this? Changing your tune now? Didn’t you say I was just a nouveau riche that I didn’t know how to climb the social ladder? Wang Chen’s lips curled into a slight smirk, his tone dripping with unmasked sarcasm. He strolled leisurely in front. Of Kong Jin Yuan, looking down at him from a height, his eyes filled with mockery and disdain. Now do you know which branch I’ve climbed? I preferred your previous rebellious demeanor, please revert to that. Kong Jin Yuan’s fists were tightly. Clenched, his nails digging deep into his palms, yet he felt no pain. Wang Chen’s flippant tone and mocking gaze pierced his pride like a sharp knife. He felt a surge of anger burning in his chest, almost bursting forth from his throat. Wang Chen, you. His voice was low and hoarse, as if squeezed out from between his teeth. Kang Jin Yuen took a deep breath, struggling to suppress his anger. Wang Chen, I was wrong first, I’ve already admitted my mistake. What more do you want? Do you have to push me to the brink of ruin before you’re satisfied? I will compensate you for all your losses and I will also post a video online to publicly apologize to you. Wang Chen, I know you have powerful backing, I admit. Defeat. Can you calm down and let me off this time? Wang Chen listened quietly to Kong Jin Yuan’s words, a meaningful smile curling at the corners of his mouth. He shoved his hands into his pockets and strolled leisurely in front of Kong Jin Yuan. Looking down at him, the mockery in his eyes diminished, replaced by an extremely indifferent gaze. Humph, now you know how to follow the rules? Wang Chen chuckled softly, his voice low, what you did before can’t just be brushed aside. With a simple apology. If I remember correctly, you were the one who broke the rules first, right? Ha, when you encounter someone less powerful than you, you disregard the rules, when you meet someone stronger, you expect me to let you off lightly? So, these rules are set by you? Kong Jin-yuan appeared to be completely subdued, genuinely remorseful. But in reality, he merely felt unlucky to have encountered someone more powerful than himself, rather than recognizing the error of his actions. He displayed his hypocritical facade to the fullest. If you have any other demands, feel free to put them forward, I will satisfy you. Kang Jin-yuen secretly raised his eyes to observe Wang Chen’s expression, wearing a flattering smile. Yet, a trace of barely perceptible resentment flashed in his eyes. What can you give me? Wang Chen replied indifferently, I like neither money nor power, do you think I want your worthless apology? Use whatever means. You have, I fear you won’t even have a chance to regret it afterward. Wang Chen. Kang Jin-yuen stood up, staring fiercely at Wang Chen, are you really intent on a fight to the death with me? A fight to the death? You think you’re worthy? Wang Chen looked at Kong Jin Yuan calmly, you seem to still not understand the situation, right now, you are the one begging me, and you have this attitude? One should spare others when possible, in the magic city, we all see each other often. Making things absolute won’t do you any good. Why not take a step back and leave a way out for each other? Kong Jin Yuan gritted his teeth and said, you can humiliate me, hit me, do whatever you want, but if you dare to lay a hand on my family, my Kong family will fight to the bitter end and will never let you go. Naive, where do you get the confidence to threaten me? Wang Chen shook his head. He found it laughable that Kong Jin Yuan was still so defiant at this moment. Facing disaster yet remaining oblivious, he even dared to threaten him. Wang Chen had never seen such a foolish rich second generation. Logically, rich kids receive the best education from a young age. They shouldn’t be saying such irrational things. I thought you could at least recognize the situation, but it seems I overestimated you. Wang Chen suppressed a smile, the disdain on his face becoming more apparent. What you call if the fish dies, the net breaks is just a joke to me. With the little influencer Kong family has, you think you can stand against me? Kong Jin-yuan was about to speak when his phone rang. He pulled out his phone from his pocket and saw that it was a call from his father. In an instant, his expression darkened and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes. His hand trembled slightly as he held the phone, hesitating for a moment before answering his father’s call. Hello? Dad, what’s the matter? He said, holding the phone awkwardly. You ungrateful son. What good thing have you done? What kind of trouble have you gotten into? I’ve pulled all my connections, and I can’t even find anyone to help you. Kong Zhongyao’s furious roar came through the phone. In Kong Zhenyuan’s memory, his father was the kind of person who remained unflappable even in the face of a mountain collapsing. He always maintained absolute rationality at all times. Since childhood, his father had taught him to stay calm. In the face of adversity. But at this moment, the roar of his father on the other end of the line completely threw him into a panic. Dad. Don’t call me dad, I have no son like you. Kong Zhenyuan was interrupted by Kong Zhongyao’s angry. voice as soon as he opened his mouth. His voice became hoarse from extreme anger, after all these years, have you forgotten how I taught you? I told you to act low-key, not to act recklessly just because you have some power at home, and you treated it like a passing wind. Now look, you’ve dragged yourself and the entire family into the abyss. I’m finished, the Kong family is finished, and the old man has been so angered by you that he’s been hospitalized. I can’t care for you anymore, don’t say you’re my son from now on, the Kong family can’t take any more turmoil. The call was forcefully hung up on the other end. Kong Jin-yuan stood there, holding his phone, completely dazed. Meanwhile, at Rinji Hospital in the Magic City. The old man of the Kong family, Kong Desan, lay on the hospital bed, his aged hand trembling as he picked up the phone and dialed a few old friends’ numbers. These people had been guests of the Kong family during his peak years, often receiving his support and care. After a few rings, the call was finally answered. Shao Li, it’s me, Kong Desan. His voice was somewhat weak but still carried an undeniable authority. There was a moment of silence on. The other end, followed by a somewhat awkward voice, oh, old man, why are you personally calling? Is your health okay? Kong Deshan ignored the pleasantries and said directly, oldly, you should have heard about my grandson’s situation, right? I hope you can help with this matter. Another silence followed on the line. Then, the other side chuckled dryly, speaking with a hint of evasion, old man, it’s not that I don’t want to help, but this matter is too big, and I really can’t do anything here. Kong Deshan’s brows furrowed tightly, and he gripped the phone harder, his knuckles turning white. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice, Shaoli, when you were just starting out, I helped you a lot. Now that the Kong family is in trouble, you just stand by and watch? Old man, please don’t say that. I, I really have no way out. The higher ups are watching closely and no one dares to act rashly. Shaoli continued, you should think of another way. The call was directly hung up. Kong Dishan’s hand fell weakly, the phone dropping onto the blanket of the hospital bed. His chest heaved violently, his breathing becoming increasingly rapid and his face paled. Further. These people, these people. He muttered to himself, his voice filled with disappointment and anger. He gritted his teeth and picked up the phone again, dialing another number. This time, the person on the other end answered more. Quickly, and their tone was more respectful. Old man, why are you personally calling? Whatever you need, just say the word. The other person’s voice carried a hint of flattery. Kong Desan let out a sigh of relief and said coldly, Xiao Zhang. You should know about my grandson’s situation, right? I hope you can step in and help smooth things over this time. On the other end of the phone, Xiao Zhang fell silent for a moment, then his tone became somewhat troubled, old sir, this matter, it’s really difficult to handle. If I rashly intervene, I might end up getting myself in trouble. Kong Bishan’s expression darkened further, and his voice carried a hint of anger, Xiao Zhang, back when you worked under me, I promoted you quite a bit. Now that the Kong family is in trouble, this is how you repay me? Old sir, please don’t be angry. Xiao Zhang’s voice became a bit flustered, I, I am also powerless in this situation. This matter is just too big. I really can’t do anything. The call was hung up again. Kong Dishan’s finger pressed heavily on the hang-up button, the light from the phone screen reflecting his increasingly ashen face. He suddenly started coughing. His frail shoulders. Trembled violently, the cough sounding as if it would tear his insides apart. Kong Zongyao hurriedly stepped forward to support his father but was pushed away by the old man. Get away. Kong Desan gasped for breath, his murky eyes fixed. On his son, what a good son you’ve raised. Now the whole city is watching the Kong family’s joke. He grabbed the medicine bottle by the pillow and hurled it against the wall, glass shards exploding on the floor, even Xiao Zhang dares to hang up on me back when he was begging me for a favor, his pants were wet. Kong Zhongyao silently squatted down, picking up the broken glass pieces. Dad, I’ve contacted the higher-ups. His voice was hoarse, as if it had been sanded down. He said, he said it’s beyond saving, and told me not to contact him again. Kong Deshan slumped onto the bed, his gaze hollow as he stared out the window. The once gentle sunlight now felt unbearably harsh to him. Back in the day, our Kong. Family could shake the city with a stomp of our feet. His voice was low and hoarse, as if squeezed out from between his teeth. I’ve worked diligently my whole life, and all the connections and family business I’ve built up have been destroyed. By this calamity. Dad, it’s my failure to discipline Zhenyuan, I’m sorry to you, and to the ancestors of the Kong family. Kong Zhongyao’s voice was filled with endless regret and self-blame, each word felt like a slap to his own face. Those who called me brother for a lifetime are now all keeping their distance. Kong Deshan smiled bitterly, the wrinkles on his face etched with the passage of time. The warmth of human relationships is just like this. When things were good, they flattered him. Now that he’s fallen, they scatter like birds and beasts. Kong Zongya walked to his father’s side, wanting to comfort him, but found his throat blocked, unable to say a word. Dad, what should we do next? Kong Zongya finally broke the silence, his voice filled with helplessness. What else can we do? Kong Desan slowly turned his head, his gaze towards his son filled with exhaustion and helplessness. The Kong family is completely finished this time. This breath, we can only swallow it. Don’t think about getting revenge on Wang Chen, as long as we can keep the lives of the Kong family safe, that would be a blessing in misfortune. He paused, then continued, I hope Chen Yuan can learn from this, if he remains stubborn, the Kong family will truly be done for. Dad, I understand. Kong Zong Yao nodded silently and turned to leave the room. He walked to the end of the hospital corridor, looking out at the bustling street, his heart filled with mixed emotions. Before today, how glorious the Kong family was in this city. And now, they had to humbly seek forgiveness from others. In the police station, Wang Chin heard the roar coming from Kong Jin Yuan’s phone and glanced at Duan Wing Jun and Gao Xiong. But he found Duan Wing Jun and Gao Xiong also looking puzzled, exchanging glances, Wang Chin frowned slightly, a hint of contemplation flashing in his eyes. He had initially thought that these two were helping him to pressure the Kong family but judging by their reactions, it wasn’t them. Most likely, it was his father or grandfather who had taken action from another angle. Since the matter had been mostly resolved, Wang Chin decided to take care of the remaining issues himself. Someone would deal with the Kong Jin Yuan family. Wang Chin looked at Director Ma, who was standing dumbfounded at the door, and said, Director Ma, I should be able to leave now, right? Upon hearing this, Director Ma hurriedly nodded, a flattering smile plastered across his face as he said, Of course, of course, young master Wang, you can leave at any time. Today’s incident was completely a misunderstanding, we almost offended you, and I truly apologize. I’ll come by later to make amends. As he spoke, he kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, his eyes filled with panic. Director Ma was eager for Wang Chen to leave. This red-haired boy was a bomb, whoever touched him would die. If Wang Chen stayed here any longer, it would be a huge problem and it was clear he wasn’t going to let it go. Either he or the hat on his head had to go. Wang Chen blanced at Director Ma’s terrified expression, nodded, slightly in acknowledgement and then turned to walk towards the police station’s entrance. Duan Wenjun and Gao Xiong also stood up upon seeing this. Li Meng stood to the side, witnessing everything, her gaze complex as she looked at Kong. Jun Yuan. Since childhood, the frequent interactions between their two families had intertwined their lives. However, in Li Meng’s heart, those moments were nothing but unpleasant memories. Kang Jin Yuan always relied on his family’s wealth. Arrogant and overbearing, often bullying other children, including Li Meng, when they were young. His unreasonable antics and reckless behavior only increased Li Meng’s disdain for him. Looking at the disheveled Kang Jin Yuan at this moment, Li Meng felt not a shred of pity, only a sense of satisfaction that he finally got his comeuppance. But soon, this satisfaction was replaced by a tinge of sentimentality. She couldn’t help but lament the unpredictability of life. Once, the Kong family had been flourishing in this city, but now, due to Kong Jin Yuan’s impulsiveness and foolishness, they faced utter disaster. The flattery and bustling crowds that once surrounded the Kong family had now turned to nothing. All that remained was the current state of ruin and desolation. Li Meng shifted her gaze away from Kong Jin Yuan, secretly relieved that she had never had a deeper entanglement with him. At the same time, she felt fortunate to stand on Wang Chen’s side. The downfall of the Kong family was self-inflicted, and her future must not be associated with such a person again. Wang Chen had just reached the door of the lounge when a sudden sound of stumbling footsteps came from behind him. Kong Zhenyuan abruptly scrambled up from the ground, his knees crashing heavily onto the tile floor, and he lunged towards Wang Chen’s legs with all his might. His hair was disheveled, sticking to his sweaty forehead, and his face, streaming, with tears and snot, resembled that of a beaten dog. Young Master Wang Young Master Wang, I beg you, he clung tightly to Wang Chen’s cap, his voice trembling with a sobbing plea, I’ll body you. I’ll be your dog. You can make me do anything. I was wrong. Please, have mercy and let me go. Without the protection of the Kong family, the days when Kong Jin Yuan could act tyrannically were gone forever. Wang Chen looked down at him, the tip of his shoe pressing against his chin, and said, let go. Wang Chen frowned in disgust, trying to shake him off, but Kong Jin Yuan held on even tighter. At this moment, Kong Jin Yuan’s mind was filled with the faces of those he had bullied. Now that the Kong family was on, the brink of collapse, how could they possibly let this opportunity for revenge slip away? They would repay him for all the humiliation he had inflicted on them over the years, doubling it back at him. He might end up beaten and bruised, lying, in a dark corner with no one to care. He could also lose all his wealth and become destitute, unable to stand in this city again. In that moment, Kong Jin-yuan could no longer maintain his proud self-esteem and face. Wang Chen looked down. At Kong Zhenyuan from above, a mocking cold smile curling at the corners of his mouth, do you think acting pitiful now will get you off the hook? Now that the Kong family is about to fall, you only know fear? It’s too late. You brought this. Upon yourself, you deserve to die. After Wang Chen finished speaking, he kicked away Kong Zhenyuan’s hand that was clutching his calf. He walked straight out of the lounge. Acting pitiful at this point was simply absurd and ridiculous. Kong Zhenyuan didn’t truly realize his mistakes, he only knew that he was doomed. The pressure of power forced him to lower his proud head. Until the very last moment, Kang Jin-yuan still clung to a glimmer of hope, attempting to threaten Wang Chen. It was only when he lost his last support that he chose to beg for mercy from Wang Chen, trying to grasp at a possible chance of survival. But it was too late. Wang Chen ignored Kang Jin-yuan’s pleas for mercy, showing no intention of letting him off the hook. Relying on his father, a deputy mayor, Kang Jin-yuan had been arrogant and overbearing, treating ordinary people’s lives as a joke with a bit of power. Now, his authority was crushed by an even greater power. It was a clear case of cosmic justice, retribution was inevitable. As for the fate of Kong Jingyuan and the Kong family afterward, it was no longer within Wang Chen’s consideration. Director Mai escorted Wang Chen to the entrance of the police station. Mayor Duan and Commander Gao had been waiting there, and when they saw Wang Chen come out, both of them wore gentle smiles. Mayor Duan said kindly, the matter has been mostly resolved. I still have official business to attend to, so I’ll be heading back first. Upon hearing this, Wang Chin hurried a few steps forward and smiled thanks to Uncle Duan and Uncle Gao’s help, otherwise I really wouldn’t know how much trouble I would have gone through alone. Thank you both. If there’s ever a need for me in the future, don’t hesitate to ask. You’re too polite, kid. In this city of magic, just treat it like your own home. If there’s anything, just speak up. Mayor Duan waved his hand with a friendly smile. Your choice to study in our magic city is a trust in the organization. As the mayor of this city, I naturally have to ensure your personal safety. Given that such a thing happened, I’m just glad you didn’t blame me. Rest assured, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation for this incident. I will also strengthen organizational management to completely prevent such things from happening, Mayor Duan said sincerely. Commander Gao laughed heartily, maintaining the public. Order of the Magic City is our duty. Besides, with such an outstanding young man studying here, we must protect you well. Nowadays, most children from the top families in Hua Gua are sent abroad for studies, and your choice to study in are. magic city shows your trust in us we certainly cannot let you suffer any grievances nor can we allow any negative influences to affect you wang chin felt warmth in his heart and smiled you’re being too serious if there’s ever a need for me in the future please feel free to ask uncles until now wang chin still didn’t know much about his grandfather’s situation he only learned from bits and pieces that he held a high position he had quite a background this also made Wang Chen curious, since his grandfather once held a high position, why did he always appear as an ordinary retired old man? On ordinary days, he would only tend to flowers and plants or occasionally play chess with others, never mentioning his past glory. It was only after this incident that he began to understand his grandfather’s power a bit. Commander Gao smiled and waved his hand, pulling out a business card from his jacket pocket and handing it to Wang Chen, saying, this is my contact information. If you ever encounter any tricky situations, just call me. Wang Chen took it with both hands, examining it carefully, the card only had a phone number and a name, with no other information. At that moment, Mayor Duan also took out his business card and handed it to Wang Chen, saying with concern, this is my personal phone number. If you have any issues in the future, just call me directly. Wang Chen thanked him repeatedly and carefully put the card away. After Wang Chen received the card, Mayor Duan and his secretary turned and walked towards the black Audi A6L at the entrance, the car slowly started and smoothly drove away from the police station entrance. Wang Chen’s gaze shifted to the imposing armored vehicle at the door. The armored car had a heavy body, its black paint gleaming with a cold, hard luster under the sunlight, the steel texture showcasing strength and authority. Commander Gao strode forward, followed closely, by several guards in neat formation. When Commander Gao reached the car door, he turned to wave goodbye to Wang Chen, calling out loudly, I’m leaving. If you need anything, just let me know. Wang Chen waved back and replied loudly, Uncle. Gao, take care. Thank you for your support. After that, Commander Gao boarded the armored vehicle and the door slowly closed. The armored car gradually started, its wheels rolling away into the distance. Wang Yeting and the 18 lawyers then approached Wang Chen and Li Meng, saying, Young Master Wang, Miss Li, we’re sorry we couldn’t be of more help. If there’s nothing else, we’ll head back to the law firm. From what had just happened, Wang Yeting understood that Wang Chen was not an ordinary person. The power behind him was beyond his imagination. With Mayor Duan and Commander Gowan involved, this matter could be perfectly resolved without the need for their lawyers to intervene. Thank you for your trouble. Wang Chen nodded and said, I have plenty of businesses under my name, so I’m sure I’ll be bothering you all with legal matters in the future. Young Master Wang, you’re too polite. Upon hearing Wang Chen’s words, Wang Yeting’s previously. Somewhat reserved expression was instantly filled with a smile. The lawyers also nodded in agreement, their faces beaming with excitement, chattering in response. After exchanging pleasantries with them, Wang Yeting and the others drove away. From the police station. At the entrance of the police station, only Wang Chen, Li Meng, and the somewhat nervous director Mai Zhilei remained. Wang Chen nodded to Director Ma, then said to Li Meng, Shall we go? Li Meng nodded, took the car, keys from her bag, and pointed to the white Porsche 718 across the street, saying, I drove here, let’s take my car. I’ll give you a ride. Wang Chen’s expression changed immediately, and he hurriedly said, Wait, let me drive instead. Alright, Li Meng pouted slightly, pretending to be dissatisfied as she handed the car keys to Wang Chen. Wang Chen took the keys with a helpless smile, then pressed the unlock button. He opened the door of the Porsche 718 and got in. Li Meng followed him into the passenger seat. With a press of the accelerator, the Porsche 718 drove out of the police station. Director Majile stood in place, watching the two figures leave, a smile on his face as he shouted, Young Master Wang, Miss Li, take care. If you need anything in the future, just let me know, I’m always at your service. Wang Chen waved his hand in response. As director Ma watched Wang Chen’s car drive away he let out a sigh of relief. He felt as if he had deflated like a punctured balloon, instantly losing his vigor. Undoubtedly, today was the most thrilling scene he had encountered in decades. A slight misstep could have cost him his position. Back when he had just graduated he had never been this scared even during a shootout with a major drug lord. Ma Jilay wiped the sweat from his forehead only to realize that his police uniform was already soaked with cold sweat. He staggered to lean against the glass door of the duty room, leaving five blurry sweat marks on the tempered glass with his fingertips. Damn it. The more Manjile thought about it, the angrier he became, kicking the nearby trash can. The trash can fell with a loud crash, echoing sharply in the quiet police station entrance. He felt that he had. Truly run into bad luck today, suffering this unwarranted disaster for no reason. He could only blame Captain Lee for acting recklessly, arresting people without notifying him in advance, leading to such a chaotic scene. He felt he had to give him a. Good scolding, how could he justify the effort he put into bringing Wang Chen back? And that Kong Jin Yuan. Ma Ji Lei had long found him displeasing, previously, he was wary of the Kong family behind him and Vice Mayor Kong. Now, however, the Kong family is on the verge of collapse and Kong Jin Yuan has lost his former arrogance, becoming a drowning dog that everyone wants to beat. Director Ma is determined to charge him with dangerous driving and provoking trouble. As he thought of this, a cold smile appeared on his face. After all, this matter is entirely Kong Jin Yuan’s responsibility. He turned and strode into the police station, heading straight for Captain Li’s office. Pushing the door open, he found Captain Lee. Sitting at his desk, looking dejected as he flipped through documents. Upon seeing Director Ma enter, Captain Lee instinctively stood up, a hint of tension flashing across his face. Director, is there something you need? Captain Lee was about to speak. When he was interrupted by Director Ma. You still know I’m the director. Director Ma glared, slamming his hand on the table. Do you even see me as your leader? For such a big matter as arresting someone, you didn’t report to me and acted on. Your own, almost causing a disaster. Do you know who you’ve offended this time? Captain Li lowered his head, not daring to breathe. I. I just received the news and was anxious, so. Anxious? Director Ma snorted coldly, your anxiety almost. Cost our police station everything. If it weren’t for Wang Xiao being magnanimous today, and Mayor Duan and Commander Gao stepping in, we would all be in deep trouble. Director, I was wrong, I truly realize my mistake. Captain Li showed a look of. Regret, repeatedly apologizing. Wasn’t this how things were usually handled? Director Ma had specifically instructed that Kong, Jin Yuen’s case should be prioritized. Now he was being blamed. Who could have imagined Wang Chen had such a powerful background? Even the Kong family got dragged into it. Looking at Captain Li’s expression, Director Ma’s anger subsided slightly. You write a thorough self-reflection and read it at the assembly of all officers. During this time, you reflect well. And if there’s a next time, don’t think you can stay here. Captain Li nodded eagerly. Yes, yes, yes, I will definitely comply. Wang Chen drove the Porsche 718 with one hand, smoothly cruising along the road. The speed was always kept below the limit. Not too fast, not too slow. At this moment, Li Meng was not concerned about whether Wang Chen was driving fast or slow. She occasionally turned her head towards Wang Chen, her lips parting a few times, only to quickly close. Again. She looked as if she wanted to say something but held back. Her fingers subconsciously twisted the hem of her clothes, wrinkling it. After a while, Li Meng took a deep breath, her gaze shifting from initial avoidance and hesitation to gradually. becoming resolute. She fixed her eyes on Wang Chen’s profile and said, I’m sorry. Hmm. Wang Chen was somewhat surprised, glancing at her and asking, why suddenly say sorry? This incident was entirely because of me that Kong Zhenyuan targeted. You. I didn’t expect him to be so extreme, causing such a big incident. Li Meng lowered her head, her voice filled with deep self-blame and regret, if I hadn’t insisted on taking you to the Tianma racetrack, you wouldn’t have encountered Kong. Zhenyuan, and he wouldn’t have come to your car, and there wouldn’t have been the subsequent events. I didn’t expect him to be so crazy, even wanting to target your family. And your Apollo IE is also total. I’m really sorry. Wang Chen. Couldn’t help but chuckle, this has nothing to do with you, don’t take it to heart. He gently rested one hand on the steering wheel, his fingers tapping lightly to the rhythm of the music. Wang Chen gazed at the vehicles ahead, lost in thought. In fact, for Wang Chen, such an incident was also a good thing. Even if Kong Zhenyuan hadn’t come to provoke him today, tomorrow, there would surely be others like Chen Zhenyuan and Huang Zhenyuan making their appearances in similar ways. Wang Chen had already considered this when he called Wang Jangwo. He had no intention of hiding his identity at all aside from his grandfather’s influence. Some things were beyond Wang Chen’s imagination. The rest were all within his expectations. There is no wall. That does not let the wind through. How could there be shadows that can be hidden in this world? The events that took place today at the Sanzhan police station must have already spread in certain circles of the Magic City. His name has likely become a topic of conversation over meals. Wang Chen’s background has surely sparked countless curiosities and speculations. This is fine, it is precisely the outcome Wang Chen desired. A single punch can open the way, preventing a hundred punches from coming. Appropriately revealing some background can both intimidate those with ulterior motives and clear some obstacles for his future actions. This way, he can avoid trouble from small fries like Kong Xin Yuan. A faint smile played at the quarters of Wang Chen’s mouth as he turned to the guilt-ridden Li Meng and said softly, although the Apollo IE is totaled, I still have a Ferrari LaFerrari and a Porsche 918 in my garage. Let’s visit the racetrack again after some time. Mentioning. The racetrack ignited a fiery light in Wang Chen’s eyes. Although he didn’t spend much time on the track today, he couldn’t forget that brief thrill of speed. The roar of the engine, the burnt rubber smell from the tires against the ground, and the sensation of the wind howling past his ears all seemed to possess a special magic that made his blood boil wow li meng’s eyes widened in disbelief you actually have a la ferrari and a porsche 918 she quickly reacted and cursed looking at wang chen with a hint of shyness wang chen smiled and nodded slightly li meng was so excited that her hands trembled slightly her gaze fixed on wang chen those cars have only existed in my dreams i never thought you really had them then let’s go to the racetrack next time we get the chance li meng’s mind was filled with images and she swallowed hard Wang Chen drove the Porsche 718 back to the Sky Pavilion. The car slowly entered the underground garage, and the lights in the designated parking space lit up one by one. Under the soft and bright lights, top-tier supercars were neatly arranged, resembling a luxurious car museum. The metallic shells of the cars reflected the light. Li Meng’s gaze was first drawn to the Ferrari LaFerrari. The vibrant red paint was striking, and the smooth lines of the car seemed ready to cut through the wind at any moment. Li Meng slowly approached, gently touching the car’s body, feeling the cold yet powerful metallic texture, murmuring, this is the LaFerrari. Not far away, the Porsche 918 and McLaren P1 stood quietly. Their unique shapes exuded a strong sense of technology. Li Meng walked around the car slowly, unable to tear her eyes away, her breathing quickening. These smooth lines are simply perfect, she whispered in admiration. If you like it, I’ll let you drive it next time. Wang Chen had somehow walked up behind her, smiling as he spoke. Li Meng turned around suddenly, her eyes filled with surprise and disbelief, really? Can I? Can I? Of course, as long as you want to. Wang Chen nodded affirmatively. She reluctantly glanced back at the Porsche 918 before turning to face Wang. Chen, thank you so much today. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know when I’d have the chance to get this close to these supercars. Li Meng said. Sincerely. Wang Chen waved his hand, don’t mention it, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. I’ll take my leave now, goodbye. Li. Meng waved at Wang Chen, then drove away from the Sky Pavilion. Wang Chen turned to look at the cars in the garage, deep in thought. He then walked. Towards the elevator. It seemed he needed to buy some more cars. With the Apollo IE wrecked, the only cars left in his garage were the McLaren P1, Porsche 918, and LaFerrari. When I purchased the Tianmu Palace, I was given quite a few parking spaces. Now, more than half of them are still empty. Moreover, there are additional parking spaces that came with the units purchased below the Tianmu Palace. I need to find an opportunity to fill these vacant parking spots, otherwise, it’s a waste. Wang Chen stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor. Exiting the elevator, he arrived at the door. The bodyguard was dutifully stationed there and upon seeing Wang Chen, respectfully said, Good evening, boss. Wang Chen nodded slightly in acknowledgement and continued walking into the room. Upon returning to the room, he was somewhat surprised to find that Ren Nyangxuan was not there tonight. This left Wang Chen feeling a bit regretful. He had been looking forward to enjoying Rin Nanshuang’s stunning dance once more. Wang Chen sighed softly. He casually hung his coat on the rack and strolled to the window, gazing down at the bustling night scene below, his thoughts, drifting far away. At that moment, Wang Chen’s phone suddenly rang. He picked it up to see it was his father, Wang Jianguo, calling. Dad, is there something you need? Wang Chen answered the call and asked. On the other end, Wang Jianguo’s steady voice came through, Shaoyu, you did well with. This matter, you didn’t bring shame to our Wang family. However, a tall tree catches the wind so you need to be more cautious in your actions going forward and don’t let anyone harm yourself. Wang Chen replied seriously, dad, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. I have it under control. I will definitely be more vigilant in the future, ensuring the family is not disgraced and that I don’t find myself in a dangerous situation. Hmm. Wang Jianguo paused for a moment before continuing, are you back at school now? No. I bought a small apartment at Zhongliang Hai Jing number 1. Wang Chen hesitated for a moment but decided to answer truthfully. Once he said it, he felt at ease. After all, with the system’s ability to modify cognition, Wang Chen was not worried about his father questioning the source of his funds. Anyway, Wang Jianguo had naturally attributed the origin of this money to his grandfather’s gifts. This way, many matters could be easily dealt with, and Wang Chen wouldn’t have to think of excuses. Zhang Lian. Hai Jing number one. That’s the community in Luji Azui, right? Yes. After a moment of silence on the other end, Wang Jianguo continued, if you don’t want to stay at school, that’s fine. I remember I have quite a few properties in the Magic City, it’s a waste for them to sit empty. I’ll have. The housekeeper organized the information and send it over to you shortly, and you can pick out what you like. Wang Jangwo said indulgently. No. Need, Dad, this apartment is quite good, it’s just enough for me. Wang Chin smiled helplessly, knowing his father’s good intentions, he had to say. Actually, I also bought several properties nearby, with various locations and layouts, so it’s really enough. You little rascal. Wang Jangwo. chuckled upon hearing this his laughter tinged with a hint of teasing since they’re just sitting idle consider these gifts from dad as places for your little girlfriends to stay so they won’t have nowhere to go and you won’t have to arrange everything ah wang chen exclaimed in surprise saying dad how did you know ha ha ha wang jangmo’s hearty laughter came through the receiver again you’re my son how could i not understand you young people full of vigor it’s normal to have a few romantic relationships i won’t interfere with the rest but there’s one thing you need to pay attention to Wang Jianguo’s tone suddenly became serious, no matter who you’re with, you must understand respect and responsibility. Relationships are not a game, don’t bring harm to a girl out of a moment of impulse, and if it gets out, it won’t be good for our Wang family’s reputation. Also, if you feel it’s right, don’t drag it out. Wang Jianguo chuckled lightly and then changed the subject, saying, your grandparents keep mentioning how they want to hold their great-grandchildren. You should bring a few kids back home when you have the time to liven things up for. The old folks. I see you’re quite fast at finding a girlfriend. If you’re willing, bringing back more kids is fine, your dad can still support them. If it really comes to it, there’s your grandpa and your maternal grandpa, especially your grandpa, who can’t wait for you to have a few chubby, little ones. Wang Chen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry and could only helplessly respond, dad, please don’t tease me. It’s not as easy as you. Say, having more kids takes time, you know? Wang Jianguo chuckled, you little rascal, don’t make excuses. I see you just haven’t had enough fun. Yet. By the way, dad, how’s grandpa doing? Wang Chin quickly changed the topic upon seeing the situation. Today at the police station, Grandpa had Commander Gao from the Magic City Garrison come over. From what I heard from Commander Gao, before Wang Chin could finish, he was directly interrupted by Wang Jianguo. Don’t ask too much about your grandpa. When it’s time for you to know, you’ll naturally find out. But I warn you, don’t use your grandpa’s name to cause trouble outside. If you have any issues, just tell me. Also, if your grandpa gives you anything again, just accept it yourself. Got it. Wang Chen nodded. Whom? Wang Jianguo continued, that old man from the Kong family still has some connections and came to. Need to plead for mercy. I see he’s getting on in years, just let his son step down, and this matter will end here. From now on, they won’t be able. To stir up trouble in the magic city. Wang Jianguo said, I’ve resolved this issue for you, but don’t think you can act recklessly like Kong Jin Yuan. If I find out you’re out there bullying others or doing illegal things, I’ll be the first to deal with you. Wang Chen chuckled at this, dad. Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. How could I be like someone like Kong Jin-yuan? You know me, I’m very dedicated, only like pretty girls. Besides that, no one bothers me, and I’m quite honest. I know. I still trust my son. On the other end of the line, Wang Jang -wo’s voice was filled with pride. His hearty laughter came through the phone. Over the years, he and Wang Chan’s mother had strictly disciplined Wang Chan. He showed no signs of the arrogance and capriciousness typical of a rich kid. Instead, he was humble and polite. Wang Jang-wo didn’t expect Wang Chan to have extraordinary. abilities. As long as he didn’t go down the wrong path and kept pace, that was enough. He observed Wang Chen’s performance during his time studying in the Magic City and found no issues. At least he didn’t have the bad habits of other rich second-generation kids. In terms of character and conduct, he was steady and organized. As for having multiple girlfriends, for a family like theirs, that was hardly a flaw. In fact, it was a good thing. If you don’t help me, I could just go directly to grandpa, Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and said. Upon hearing this, Wang Jianguo pretended to be annoyed, you little rascal, now you’re learning to use your grandpa to pressure me. After all, grandpa seems to be more formidable than you, Wang Chen said with a hint of melancholy. Beep beep, two crisp busy signals rang out, and Wang Jianguo hung up the phone directly. The abrupt busy tone was like a pause in this father-son sparring. Wang Chen held the phone, a smirk of triumph on his face. Usually, when facing Wang Jianguo, he was the one getting scolded. Today, he finally scored a point. This long-lost feeling of victory made him feel elated, and he found it quite amusing. Wang Chen put down the phone and stood by the window, looking at Lu Jiazui at that moment. Under the night sky, the streets were bustling with traffic, and pedestrians flowed like a river. The noise and liveliness intertwined, creating the unique vitality of this city. Wang Chen was still somewhat puzzled as to how his father, starting from scratch, could establish such a large pioneering heavy industry group. Moreover, it was involved in key sectors like energy, aerospace, and equipment manufacturing. These were not industries that could be entered just by having the capability. It seemed clear now that his grandfather’s help must have played a significant role. While Wang Chen was still pondering, his phone in his pocket rang again. He took out his phone and gasped in shock. He couldn’t help but exclaim, what the hell is this? Infected with a virus? It was no wonder Wang Chen reacted so strongly. On the screen, there was no specific caller ID displayed. Instead, there were just two lines of text floating on the screen. Urgent. Call from JW Dedicated Line, please answer immediately, extremely urgent. Hello? You are receiving an emergency call from the Strategic Corps, Department of the G Family. Please confirm that your environment is safe and private. Stay away from crowded areas, avoid any possible eavesdropping. Risks, and answer immediately. A scam call? Wang Chen’s mind instantly fell into chaos. The thought of it being a scam flickered in his mind, but he quickly dismissed it. The wording in the urgency did not seem like something an ordinary scammer could concoct. They wouldn’t have the guts. But, if it wasn’t a scam, how could it be so bizarre? It was not unusual for an ordinary person to get a special number, as long as they had money, it was possible. If Wang Chen wanted, he could buy a bunch of special numbers from the three major telecom operators. Those numbers were just a string of symbols that could be easily obtained in his eyes, not worth mentioning at all. However, Wang Chen clearly wasn’t that bored. With his status, he didn’t need to rely on such superficial things to make a show. But now, the call on his phone did not display a number, it only showed text. This situation was something Wang Chen had never encountered in two lifetimes. After thinking for a moment, he had some guesses about the call. Wang Chen steadied his mind and answered the call, Hello? What’s wrong, grandson? Can’t even recognize your grandfather’s voice? An old voice came from the other end of the line. Grandpa, is that really you? Wang Chen said, somewhat surprised. Ha ha ha. Just as Wang Chen finished speaking, a hearty laugh came from the other side of the phone, as expected of my eldest grandson, I didn’t scare you, did I? No, Wang Chen smiled and said, I also. Wanna thank you for standing up for me today and dealing with the Kong family. Whomf. A mere Kong family dares to bully my good grandson. The old. Man snorted coldly, if I hadn’t intervened, you wouldn’t even know you were being bullied at the police station. Your dad is no help, really going. Backward. My good grandson, being bullied by a small Kong family like this, I can’t let it go. Fortunately, nothing happened to you. If you had. Been hurt even a little, I would have made sure that the Kong family had nothing left. The old man’s voice suddenly turned deep, as if wrapped in ice. Exuding a murderous aura, dare to touch my grandson, they better weigh their own capabilities. This time, it’s just a small warning for them. If, they still don’t know how to restrain themselves and attempt to retaliate, I will ensure that the Kong family is uprooted from this world, erased from, existence, and that each of them pays a painful price for their actions today. Aldi steadied his mind and tentatively spoke, Grandpa, I know you, care about me, but the Kong family has been operating in this area for many years, deeply rooted. if we push things to the extreme won’t it cause unnecessary trouble trouble the old man snorted coldly did they think about trouble when they provoked you i fought through half my life am i afraid of them as he spoke the glorious years of the past seemed to flash before his eyes he slowly said you’re you’re still young and there are some things you don’t understand back in those chaotic times i carved out a place for myself what hardships and dangers did i not face those who wanted to step on me which one of them didn’t return defeated grandpa you back then Wang Chen couldn’t help but be curious, wanting to explore more. The old man paused, then his tone softened, those are all things of the past, long gone, better left unmentioned. Although Wang Chen was filled with curiosity, he felt it inappropriate to press further. He could only bury this curiosity deep in his heart for now. Actually, I feel quite embarrassed because I’ve been reckless and made a fool of myself outside, bringing shame to grandpa, Wang Chen smiled. My good grandson, where have you been reckless? I’ve looked into the matter, it was entirely the other party who provoked you. If a young person doesn’t have a bit of fire in them, are they still young? Grandpa retorted, who hasn’t made mistakes when they were young? No wonder you’re my good grandson, your character is just like mine when I was young. As a member of the Wang family, you must have this spirit, you must never back down in the face of challenges. You have your father behind you, and I’m here to support you, don’t be afraid. Our Wang family has what we have today because we dare to draw our swords at critical moments. Every move you make outside, Grandpa sees it all. You have the vigor of youth, which is a good thing, don’t deny yourself because of a momentary mistake. Grandpa has never thought you were a disgrace, on the contrary, I have always been proud of you. You were able to bring back the youngly encyclopedia that makes grandpa very pleased, allowing me to hold my head high in front of those old geezers. That said, your grandpa has worked hard for the country and the people all his life, just to pave a way for the next generation. My good grandson, have you done anything out of line? Who can do anything to you? I want to see who has the guts to pull this tiger’s whiskers. Although grandpa’s voice was old, it was filled with authority at that moment. Wang Chen took a deep breath, calming the surging emotions within him. With such a powerful grandpa. To protect him, Wang Chen suddenly felt very reassured. Very grounded. It could be said that as long as Wang Chen wanted, there was no one in Hua Gua. That he wouldn’t dare to provoke. In front of him, no matter how noble or distinguished the identity, even the mighty dragon must lie low. Even the king of the mountains, the fierce tiger, could only remain docile and hidden. Originally, I planned to have someone bring you some living expenses for your university life in Modu. But I didn’t expect your father, that stingy man, to be so generous this time. Grandpa’s hearty laughter came through the phone, followed by, but it’s good, he rarely has such insight and knows how to care for his son. Although it’s not much, it should be enough for your living expenses. If you find yourself short of money in Modu, don’t hold back, tell grandpa, and I’ll send you some. Wang Chen couldn’t help but chuckle. With hundreds of billions in his bank account, to grandpa, it was just enough for living. Wang Jianguo misunderstood that his money, came from grandpa. Now grandpa thought this money was given by Wang Jianguo. Quite amusing. However, Wang Chen clearly had no intention of clarifying. They were mutually misunderstanding each other, and Wang Chen was relieved not to have to explain. You, I can tell, are not a settled person, as, soon as you arrived in Modu, you found quite a few little girlfriends. No wonder you’re my eldest grandson, you have your grandpa’s style from, back in the day. Grandpa’s aged laughter came from the other end of the phone. Wang Chen’s face instantly darkened followed by a flush of embarrassment.He originally thought that no one would know about his actions in the Magic City. As a result, not only did Wang Jianguo find out but even his grandfather knew about him having several girlfriends. Even with Wang Chen’s two lifetimes, he couldn’t help but feel a burning embarrassment on his face. Wang Chen stammered, Grandpa, who did you hear this from? It’s not as exaggerated as you say. You brat, you still want to hide it from. Grandpa? Every move you make in the magic city has been reported to me. Grandpa’s laughter grew louder. Good grandson, work hard, and strive to have a few chubby little ones next year so I can hold my great-grandson soon that I’ll have no regrets in this life. Wang Chen’s face darkened. Further. He helplessly said, Grandpa, you really are pushing me too hard. Next year? That’s too soon, I’m still just a student. What’s wrong with being a student? Grandpa snorted, justifying himself. When I was your age, I already had your dad. People should do what they need to do at the right age. You have many girls around you now, which is a good thing. It shows that the Wang family’s genes are good and attractive. As long as you’re willing, having more children would be great. Cough cough. Grandpa wanted to say something more but suddenly broke into a violent cough. Grandpa, are you okay? Wang Chen, hearing the unusual cough, asked anxiously. I’m fine, I’m fine, cough cough. Grandpa coughed while reassuring Wang Chen. I’m fine, just an old problem, it will pass. After a while, grandpa gradually caught his breath and helplessly said, you know, as people age, they become less useful. Once they start coughing, it never ends. Grandpa, your health. Wang Chen asked with some concern. Don’t worry, grandpas. Health can last another 10 years or so without any problem. I have medical staff taking care of me every day. But you know, being old comes with some minor issues. The old man’s voice returned to normal. This old body of mine is sturdier than you think. Your grandpa has been through storms and waves in his life. What difficulties hasn’t he seen? These minor issues are nothing at all. At the rate you’re finding girlfriends, I should still be able to hold my great-grandson. Hearing this, Wang Chen finally felt relieved. After all, this was his own grandfather. Blood is thicker than water, and Wang Chen certainly didn’t want any issues with his grandfather’s health. But why does grandpa keep bringing up his girlfriends? With grandpa’s personality, it wouldn’t be long before the entire upper echelon of the imperial capital would know about his affairs. Just thinking about. This made Wang Chen’s face darken even more. He couldn’t help but ponder if there was any way to keep grandpa and Wang Jianguo from finding out. In the end, he still dejectedly gave up on this idea. With Wang Jianguo and grandpa’s status, there are very few things that could be hidden from them. In Hua Gua, as long as they wanted, they could find out anything Wang Chin did in the magic city within half an hour. Perhaps, there are already, people arranged by grandpa and Wang Jianguo in the community he is in. Wang Chin sighed helplessly. Although he didn’t want to be monitored, this, was also the love of family. After all, Wang Chen’s identity was indeed somewhat sensitive. Even in Hua Gua, known for its safety worldwide, one must always be cautious. He could only wait for the system to see if he could draw some special effect entries. Wang Chen silently prayed in his heart to draw some entries that could enhance his personal combat power. That way, Grandpa and Wang Jianguo would have no reason to send people to monitor and protect him anymore. I won’t disturb you any longer, you must be tired of Grandpa’s nagging. The old man’s aged voice came through the phone, a hint. of reluctance in his words you young people have your own ideas and i have nothing more to say grandpa what are you talking about how could i ever find you tedious wang chen quickly replied in his previous life the old man was just an ordinary retired civil servant and although he held a high position in this life in front of wang chen he was no different from an ordinary old man wang chen wanted to chat more with him but was afraid that he would find him tiresome no matter how high his grandfather’s status was or how respected he was outside in front of him he was just an old man longing for companionship and fearing rejection. They were both mere mortals and familial love had nothing to do with status. This feeling of being cared for by a family member warmed Wang Chen’s heart. If you can think this way, grandpa will be very happy. When you have time, come to the capital to see grandpa and grandma, the old man said, laughing again, your grandma and I sometimes feel quite bored in the capital, every day we just watch TV and take walks, nothing new to talk about. Your grandma misses you a lot too, she has been saying lately that she wants to make. you your favorite maipo tofu wang chan’s eyes instantly moistened he nodded and said i’ll go to the capital in a while even if his grandfather hadn’t mentioned it wang chan had already planned to find time to visit them in this new life he hadn’t seen his grandparents yet he wondered if their health was still as good as in his previous life all right all right let your grandma make you something delicious then the old man’s voice was filled with anticipation he paused for a moment and continued my eldest grandson i still have a few more things to remind you you are in the Magic City alone, so you must focus more on studying. You are at the age of striving, knowledge changes destiny, and that saying is always true. Although our Wang family doesn’t need you to carry it forward, you can’t let it fall into ruin in your hands. The old man took a breath and continued. Earnestly, also, young people are bound to be curious about relationships, and I understand that, but you must not get lost in it. The men of. Our Wang family are all people in high positions, with the people’s welfare in their hearts, and you must not let romantic entanglements hinder your. Progress. I see you have your own plans, and your company is doing well, Grandpa is very happy. If you encounter any problems with the company, ask your dad more. After all, he manages such a large company, and his experience is definitely richer than yours. Listen to his opinions, it will save you a lot of detours. The old man’s voice carried the wisdom of years, speaking slowly and steadily, if anyone dares to make things difficult for you, remember to call Grandpa right away. While I can still speak, I can still lend you a hand. Grandpa hopes you can gradually catch up and not. Let our Wang family’s status fall. I can’t rely on your dad anymore. You are the only male descendant of our Wang family in this generation. Grandpa is counting on you. Your second uncle is now in a crucial position too. If I can help him a bit more in the next few years, it will be stable. And then I can rest easy. I understand, Grandpa, Wang Chen said seriously. On the other end of the line, Grandpa continued, if you encounter anyone deliberately causing you trouble outside, don’t be afraid, just mention Grandpa’s name. If they still don’t understand, just let your bodyguards. handle it, they wouldn’t dare to do anything to you. Listening to his grandfather’s domineering words, a warm current surged in Wang Chen’s heart, and he couldn’t help but smile slightly. Grandpa was still the same as in his previous life, unwaveringly protecting him, even in a high position, he still supported him from behind. After hanging up the phone, Wang Chen looked at the nearly hour-long call duration, pondered, for a moment, and then put his phone away in his pocket.He stretched lazily, feeling exhausted after a day of hustle, he decided to take a hot shower. To relax. Wang Chen walked into the bathroom, turned on the Hansgro showerhead and warm water cascaded over him. He comfortably squinted his eyes. The fatigue of the day gradually dissipated with the flow of water. After a while, Wang Chen finished his shower and casually wrapped a towel around himself as he stepped out. Just as he picked up a towel to dry his hair, the door to the room suddenly swung open. Long Lily walked in. There. Eyes met. Long Lily instinctively glanced over. She saw Wang Chen’s broad shoulders holding up one corner of the towel. His solid chest muscles were faintly visible. Below were clearly defined eight pack abs, each one tight and full of strength, as if they were meticulously sculpted works of art. Coupled with Wang Chen’s height of 1 meter 88, he presented a striking visual impact. Just standing there, he exuded an irresistible aura of hormones. Long Lily was momentarily taken aback, then a blush crept onto her face as she playfully scolded, Why aren’t you wearing any clothes? You just come out like this. This is my own home, right? Wang Chen shrugged with a smile, puffing out his chest, and said nonchalantly, what, are you shy seeing your boyfriend looking this handsome? You really have a big mouth. Long Lily rolled her eyes at him, stepped forward, and lightly, punched him, saying, I passed by a cake shop today and bought you a slice of cheesecake. It’s really good, I left it on the table, remember to eat it. Later, Long Lily looked at Wang Chen with concern, her eyes filled with care, by the way, I heard you had a conflict with someone this afternoon and, it even went to the police station? Are you okay? Wang Chen felt warmth in his heart as he grabbed her hand and smiled, I’m really fine, just a small misunderstanding, going to the police station was just to take a statement. Long Lily still wasn’t reassured, frowning as she said, I’m just afraid they hurt you. What if you got injured? I’d be so worried. I know you’re worried about me, but look, I’m fine. Wang Chen pulled her into his arms and kissed her forehead. As long as you’re not hurt, that’s good. Long Lily sighed in relief, her worry slightly fading, you have no idea how anxious I was this afternoon. A group of fierce-looking people barged into the company, demanding I hand over the company accounts, saying you were taken to the police station. She patted her chest, still shaken, and continued, I was at a loss for what to do when suddenly one of their phones rang. After the call, that group immediately started apologizing to me, completely different from their previous arrogant demeanor. After apologizing, they hurriedly left. It’s all over now, it won’t happen again, I promise. Wang Chen gently reassured her. Although today’s incident was instigated. By Li Meng, the final outcome was the complete downfall of the Kong family. Wang Chin didn’t have the time to deal with those small fries below. They were just following Kong Jun Yuan’s orders anyway. Lily, you’ve really worked hard. He gently cupped Long Lily’s face, his fingers tenderly, stroking her cheek as he spoke with deep affection. Long Lily looked up, her eyes sparkling with emotion, and with a hint of reproach said, as long. As you know, you can’t make me worry like this again. It’s so late, why don’t you just stay here tonight? Wang Chin said, a hint of irresistible. heat flashing in his eyes. Before Long Lily could respond, he suddenly bent down, his strong arms sweeping under her legs and back, lifting her up. Effortlessly. Ah! Long Lily exclaimed in surprise, instinctively wrapping her arms around Wang Chen’s neck, her face filled with astonishment. And shyness, what are you doing? Wang Chen, however, did not answer, a mischievous smile playing on his lips as he strode purposefully toward the bedroom, holding her tightly, the dim yellow light in the bedroom cast a warm blow over them, outlining the intimate contours of the two. Damn you. The next day, as night fell, with the deepening darkness, the city’s nightlife officially began. The snack street near the university was alive with a cacophony of shouts. The aroma of grilled skewers, the unique smell of stinky tofu, and the sweet scent of milk tea blended together, attracting wave after wave of diners. Nearby, students gathered in small groups, laughing and playing as they wove through the crowd, holding freshly made snacks. In their hands, they enjoyed the delightful moments of youth. As Wang Chan and a few roommates arrived, they immediately spotted several groups of vibrant young women. Some were dressed simply, while others wore short JK skirts with black stockings. Their simple outfits radiated youthful energy. Jung Jin’s eyes lit up instantly. He nudged Wang Chen’s shoulder and whispered excitedly, look at all the beauties on this snack street. Come. On, you guy, your eyes are about to pop out. Are you brave enough to go up and ask for their contact? Wang Chen replied with a slight smirk, a teasing. Smile playing on his lips. He couldn’t help but glance around at the girls. He had to admit, college life was great. Just a quick look, and there. Were several pretty girls right in front of him? Jungjin scratched his head, chuckling awkwardly, and fell silent. Nyo Ben clearly agreed, grinning. As he said, why don’t we see them dressed like this at school? They must save the black stockings for outside. The tall guy beside him chuckled. In agreement, exactly, they look so much better like this. The four of them chatted as they walked, casually finding a barbecue stall not far away. To sit down. Jungjin had recently started dating a girl who studied at Fudan University, not far from the University of Finance. After learning. This, Nyo Ben and the tall guy had been shouting in the dorm about not being able to find a girlfriend. Thinking about how his girlfriend’s roommate was still single, Jung Jin organized this gathering for tonight. He had already called his girlfriend and they were on their way. As for Wang Chen, he was being dragged along to pay the bill as a way to make up for the years of secrets he had kept from them. Wang Chen didn’t mind treating it as a meal for his dorm brothers. However, he didn’t expect that after much deliberation they would still choose to eat at a barbecue stall outside the school. Nyo-ban was still immersed in the excitement of the upcoming gathering, occasionally glancing towards the entrance. I wonder what. Jung-jin’s girlfriend’s roommate looks like, it would be great if she liked me, he kept muttering. The tall guy chuckled beside him, chiming in. Yeah, I’m curious too. At that moment, Jung-jin’s phone rang again. He answered, and his smile grew even brighter, almost there? Great, we’ll be. Waiting for you at this barbecue stall. A few minutes later, several vibrant young girls walked over from a distance. Sure-yoon, over here. Jung. Jin waved excitedly in the direction of the girls. Nyo Ben spotted the lead girl from afar, she was quite attractive. Tall and fair-skinned, she wore a fitted white floral dress and black high-heeled sandals. Her elegant demeanor made her look particularly youthful and charming. Two other girls followed closely behind her, walking towards them. As they approached, Nyo Ben’s eyes brightened even more, Old Zhang, this beauty is something else. She’s not your girlfriend, is she? Wang Chen turned to look. The leading girl was indeed good-looking, dressed in a white floral dress that revealed. A pair of long, straight legs. Her arms and legs, exposed to the air, glowed white, particularly eye-catching. Wang Chen couldn’t help but exclaim. Truly, a fair complexion hides a multitude of flaws. The ancients were not wrong. With a maximum of 80 in looks, she’s already in the ranks. Of goddesses. With beauty filters online, who knows how many young boys and girls would be mesmerized. Zheng Zhen shot Nyo Ben a glare and said. This is my girlfriend, where are you looking? What? This is your girlfriend. Nyo Ben couldn’t help but exclaim. The big guy’s eyes widened in. Disbelief, his expression clearly showing his astonishment as his gaze darted back and forth between Zhang Jin and the girl, seemingly trying to confirm. Whether Zhang Jin was joking. Old Zhang, don’t mess with your brother, you don’t look like the type who could date a goddess like her. Nyo Ben. Said in surprise. If Wang Chin had such a beautiful girlfriend, Nyo Ben wouldn’t be so shocked. After all, Wang Chin was tall, handsome, and a rich. Second generation. Having such a beautiful girlfriend would be quite normal. but Jungjin looked just about the same as him. Finding a girlfriend was already impressive, let alone one with such high looks. Lin Shiyun walked up to them with her two roommates, frowning at the dirty and chaotic environment. Of the barbecue stall, she felt quite displeased. She had gone through the trouble of calling her roommates out for a meal, and Jungjin had the audacity to choose such a place. How could he be so shameless? This was a social gathering. Who comes to a barbecue stall for that? She hadn’t been to a barbecue stall since middle school. But now that her roommates were already here, wasn’t this just embarrassing her in front of them? Lin. Shiyun felt a bit unhappy, her face growing warmer. It felt like she was losing face in front of her roommates. Shiyun, you have another roommate? Jungjin asked, noticing only the three of them. The mentor called her for something last minute, she might be a bit late, Lin Shiyun replied. Flatly, her enthusiasm not very high. The big guy scratched his head, wanting to greet her and say a few flirty words to her roommate. But as the words reached his lips, his tongue got tied. The big guy could only blush and say to Lin Shiyun, sister-in-law. Among them, they usually referred to each other as father and son, their relationship so close they could share a pair of shorts. Calling her sister-in-law wasn’t a big deal. Who knew Lin? Shiyun would suddenly be unhappy? What did you call me? Don’t call me that randomly. Lin Shiyun’s already displeased expression due to the poor. Environment of the barbecue stall turned even darker. Her brows furrowed tightly and a clear hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes. Zhengjin rubbed. His nose, awkwardly smiling, just call me by my name. Actually, I’m just a temporary boyfriend. Lin Shere Yun said coldly, you haven’t passed my test yet, so don’t go around promoting it every day. If people misunderstand, it won’t be good. Nyo Ban was taken aback upon hearing this. He couldn’t help but say, what? A boyfriend is a boyfriend, is there such a thing as a temporary one? You city folks really know how to play. We country. Folks don’t do that. Zhengjin shook his head with a bitter smile, it’s a long story, I really haven’t passed Shuryun’s test yet. Wang Chan and Na. Others exchanged glances, nearly bursting into laughter. They had heard Zhengjin bragging about how beautiful his girlfriend was and how great their relationship was. Turns out he was just a temporary boyfriend. Suddenly, Lin Shuryun’s roommate John Wanwan crossed her arms, a mocking smile, on her face. She walked up to Lin Shuryun. Her sharp voice instantly broke the already awkward atmosphere, oh, I said Shuryun, is this your flower? Protect her? Choosing such a shabby place to eat, you really don’t take us seriously, do you? Isn’t this just lowering your standards? Zhang Wan Wan. Glanced at Zheng Jin and the others from the corner of her eye, her gaze filled with disdain. She had always envied Lin Shiyun for being prettier then. Her and having many suitors, now she finally found an opportunity to mock her. Lin Shiyun’s expression grew increasingly unpleasant, she bit her lip. A hint of annoyance flashing in her eyes, but she didn’t know how to respond. She could only remain silent on the side. Upon hearing this, Nyo Ben. immediately felt displeased. He stepped forward, furrowing his brow and said loudly, what do you mean by that? How can this barbecue stall lower the standards? The most important thing is that the food tastes good and we enjoy eating, why so many pretensions? Zhang Wan Wan instantly reacted as, if someone had stepped on her tail, our Shoryun is a goddess level figure, she should go to those high-end restaurants, enjoy the best service, how? Can we settle for a place like this with such a chaotic atmosphere? Zhang Wan Wan exclaimed. She placed her hands on her hips, her demeanor fierce. showing no regard for anyone’s feelings. She looked completely unyielding. Wang Chen couldn’t stand it any longer. He spoke up, we’re all friends. We just want to have a good time eating together, there’s no need to be so confrontational. We chose this place out of goodwill, thinking it would be more relaxed. If you really don’t like eating here, we can change places. Wang Chen’s words expressed his stance while leaving some room for both sides. He just hoped the other party wouldn’t be ungrateful. But Jiang Wanwan was ungrateful, she rolled her eyes and coldly huffed, you men. Don’t respect our feelings at all. You only think about your convenience, have you considered Shiyun’s dignity? The big guy standing beside them was. Anxious, scratching his head. He blushed and stammered, You, don’t go too far, why make it so difficult for people? Su Xingyao tugged at Jiang. Wanwan’s hand and softly said, Wanwan, don’t be angry, it’s rare for everyone to get together. I’ve been to this place several times, and the food is. Really good, plus the atmosphere is lively, I think it’s quite nice. Let’s sit down first, her voice was gentle, like a spring breeze, trying to dispel. the tension in the air. Zhang Wanwan was pulled alone, her anger not completely dissipated. But under Su Xingyao’s tugging, she couldn’t continue to explode, only muttering under her breath, if it weren’t for your sake, I wouldn’t eat here. Lin Shuryun looked gratefully at Su Xingyao, her eyes full of appreciation. She sighed slightly and said to Zhang Zhen and the others, I’m really sorry, my roommate is just thinking of me, she might have spoken a bit too hastily. Since Xingyao thinks this place is good, let’s sit down and eat. Lin Shuryun’s change in attitude eased the previously. tense atmosphere considerably. It’s fine, it’s fine, we didn’t consider it well, Jungjin quickly nodded, a relieved smile appearing on his face. Since everyone is willing to stay, let’s hurry and sit down. I’ll go order some skewers, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied. After saying that, he quickly walked towards the barbecue stall owner to place the order. Su Xingyao returned a sweet smile, we’re all friends, when we go out to have fun, we should be happy. Lin Shuryan’s two roommates initially wanted to see if Jungjin’s friends were handsome, if they were decent in all aspects. They planned to add them on Feixin to chat. But they were greatly disappointed. Nyo Ban had dark skin and dressed plainly. The big guy was as strong. As an ox, a bit silly looking. The two of them were filled with disappointment. It wasn’t until they sat down and looked closely at the group that. They discovered Wang Chen’s looks were surprisingly high. He was so handsome. The clothes he wore were clearly from big brands, either rich or noble. Their gazes frequently swept over Wang Chen and even Lin Shiryun stole a few glances. Lin Shurian’s two roommates, although Jiang Wanwan was a bit chubby, were also cute girls. Su Xing-El looked like a girl who had lived in the city since childhood. Her clothing style and makeup showed her exquisite taste. She wore a light blue floral dress. Her hair was carefully styled into big waves cascading smoothly over her shoulders. Her makeup was light and fresh. The dusty rose lipstick added a touch of softness to her features. The one with the lowest looks has to be Jiang Wanwan. Although her. face has a certain cuteness after what just happened wang chen and the others realized how terrifying this girl could be she was not to be trifled with everyone introduced themselves to each other marking a preliminary acquaintance jang wan wan noticed wang chen’s handsomeness and her heart felt like a little rabbit bouncing around unable to contain itself she secretly tidied her hair and tugged at her pink t-shirt trying to make herself look a bit prettier taking a deep breath she put on what she thought was her sweetest smile and leaned towards wang chen her voice laced with A hint of coquetry, Wang Chen, what’s your major? Upon hearing Zhang Wan Wan’s question, Wang Chen politely replied, finance. After saying that, he turned back to continue his conversation with Neil Ben, who was beside him, picking up the topic they had just been interrupted from. Zhang Wan Wan hit a soft wall but remained undeterred. She cleared her throat and spoke again, wow, finance is so impressive. You must be able to make a lot of money in the future. I, on the other hand, am studying something quite ordinary and I feel like my future is a bit bleak. As she spoke, she played with her hair by her ear, her eyes fixed on Wang Chen, eagerly awaiting his response. However, Wang Chen merely responded with a casual hum, his attention. Completely elsewhere. Zhang Zhen returned with the menu, and seeing the scene felt a bit awkward, so he smiled and tried to ease the tension, everyone has their own strengths, Wan Wan, don’t be too hard on yourself. Let’s have a drink first, Zhang Wan Wan said, raising her glass for a toast. She forced a smile in response to Zhang Zhen, but her thoughts were still entirely on Wang Chen. Biting her lip, her eyes darted around, by the way. Wang Chen, you’re so handsome, you must have a girlfriend, right? Wang Chen frowned slightly, feeling a bit helpless at Zhang Wan Wan’s persistent questioning. He set down his glass and calmly said, I do. Zhang Wan Wan’s face instantly fell, alternating between pale and flushed. The hopeful look in her eyes dimmed, replaced by a mix of unwillingness and resentment. She slammed her glass down on the table with a loud bang, drawing everyone’s attention. Hmm, today’s boys really don’t know what they want. They think finding a girlfriend means everything is settled, without caring if they can go on in the future. Jiang Wanwan raised her voice, her tone dripping with sarcasm while her eyes occasionally darted towards Wang Chen, as if she was deliberately speaking for him to hear. Take Shiyun and Zhang Jun, for example. Shiyun has such great conditions, with so many rich, second-generation suitors, yet she chose an ordinary Zhang Jun. A mocking smile crept onto Jiang Wanwan’s lips as she continued, when in love, who doesn’t know how to sweet talk? But when it comes to marriage, with the daily grind of life, how can you manage without money? Zhengjin’s family isn’t. Rich, what can he offer Shiyun for happiness? No matter how passionate the romance, in the end, it will still fall apart. Lin Shiyun’s expression. Turned extremely ugly in an instant, her lower lip tightly bitten. Zhengjin clenched his fists, his face burning, struggling to contain his inner. Anger. Zhang Wanwan seemed to have opened a floodgate, unable to stop. With her hands on her hips, she continued to speak passionately, women need. To be independent, otherwise, they’ll be trapped in the family for life, raising children and serving men, taking care of a whole family, and in the end, they won’t have anything good. Shere Yun, you need to think clearly, don’t let love cloud your judgment. As for me, I’m determined to rely on myself and won’t pin my future on a man. Unlike some people, who have rich second generation suitors right beside them but still choose someone with no prospects. Zhang Wanwansuke swept once more towards Lin Shere Yun and Zhang Zhen, her tone as if she stood at the pinnacle of worldly truth. My. Feelings for Shiryun are as clear as day, I will definitely make her happy, and I don’t need you here to point fingers. Zhengjin’s chest heaved. Violently, veins bulging on his forehead. Jiang Wanwan, however, was like a lit powder keg, becoming increasingly reckless. Hmm, it’s useless for you. To say anything now, you’ll regret it later. A woman can only have true confidence if she has her own abilities. Relying on a man is just a dream, she. Raised her voice. Enough. Just as the atmosphere became tense. Wang Chen looked at Zhang Wan Wan and said, you keep insisting that women should be independent, which is true, but to completely oppose independence with love and family is a huge mistake. True independence is about mental autonomy and economic self-sufficiency, but that doesn’t mean you have to abandon love and family. Tonight is a gathering of friends, if you want to fight, take it home. Zhang Wan Wan was taken aback by Wang Chen’s words, opening her mouth but unable to speak for a moment. Nyo Ben, seeing this quickly, chimed in, exactly, exactly, Wang Chen is absolutely right. How can you hurt Shiyun and Zhangjin like this? Su Xingyeo also stepped forward, holding Zhang Wanwan’s hand, gently advising, Wanwan, stop talking, let’s all calm down. The noise from the snack street surged like a tide, with various shouts and laughter intertwining. Yet, in this small circle, the atmosphere was chillingly tense. The smoke from the barbecue stall rose on its own, the aroma of grilled skewers wafting through the air, yet it could not dispel the rift among the crowd. Hey, you guys are here? I finally found you. Suddenly, a unique shout came from the crowd. Everyone turned to look. A tall, exquisite-looking mixed-race girl was striding towards them. She stood about 1.8 meters tall, her figure long and upright. A cascade of golden waves of hair fell casually over her shoulders. She wore a white crop, top that perfectly showcased her slender waist. Below, she paired it with light blue denim shorts, her long, straight legs fully exposed to the air. Her skin was almost translucent, glowing softly under the lights of the snack street. Even fairer than Lin Shuryun’s skin, it was a unique charm. Bestowed by her foreign lineage, her deep blue eyes resembled a clear blue lake. The corners of her eyes slightly lifted, carrying the gentle warmth. Unique to Hua Gua people, and beneath her high-nose bridge was a mouth that always wore a radiant smile. Everyone’s gaze was firmly drawn to her, there. Surprise unabashed. The big guy, who had his mouth wide open, now couldn’t close it. The skewer in his hand hovered in mid-air, held up in a daze. His eyes fixated on this mixed-race beauty as if he had been hit by a spell. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow slightly, a glimmer of appreciation flashing in his eyes. He instinctively activated his mysterious true eye. In an instant, the information about this mixed-race beauty appeared before him. Name. Karina Jinxian slash Lu Ruyan, age, 20, height, 181 centimeters, charm, 96, physique, 90, favorability, 45, skills, language proficiency, advanced dance, bartending, firearms proficiency, in the brief seconds that Wang Chen checked the data, the people around him were still immersed in awe of Anna’s stunning appearance. Even the entire barbecue stall fell silent. Many boys had their eyes wide open, forgetting to chew the skewers in their hands. Their Adam’s apples unconsciously bobbing up and down, their faces filled with amazement and admiration. A few bolder ones quietly took out their phones, wanting to capture this rare moment. Yet, fearing being discovered, their movements were cautious, their eyes darting between the phone screen. And Anna. Some boys began to whisper among themselves, their voices were low, but in the suddenly quiet barbecue stall, a few sentences could still be faintly heard. This girl is too beautiful, is she a model with such height? This figure, this face, it’s simply stunning. Mom, I’m in love. She’s so beautiful, but that northeast accent, who taught her? It’s too abstinent. My princess, I must find you the best anesthetic in the world. As they spoke, they occasionally nudged their companions with their elbows, seemingly wanting to confirm that they weren’t dreaming. Some even stood up, wanting to see more clearly. Completely disregarding their own lack of decorum, their eyes followed her every move. The once lively barbecue stall seemed to freeze in time with her appearance. Everyone was captivated by her beauty, immersed in this brief yet unforgettable stunning moment. Just as everyone was lost in surprise, the mixed-race girl had already approached. With a radiant smile on her face, she spoke in Chinese. With a unique accent, I finally found you guys. I was almost lost in this snack street. Lin Shiryun quickly grabbed Lu Meng-yen’s hand and, enthusiastically said, sit down, sit down, we’ve been waiting for you. After introducing a few people to Karina, Lin Shiryun turned to everyone and said, this is my last roommate, isn’t she beautiful? Karina stood up gracefully and said in her uniquely accented Chinese, Hello everyone, I’m a junior. At Fudan University. I grew up in Russia and only returned to China for school after high school. I’m of Chinese-Russian mixed heritage. My Russian. Name is Karina Jinxian and my Chinese name is Lu Ruyan. You can call me Lu Ruyan or Karina. Wangqian couldn’t help but feel speechless at her. Words. Yet, he had to admire the beauty of Lu Ruyan. There are no ugly girls associated with that name. The novel does not deceive me. Nyo Benz. Eyes widened in curiosity as he asked, wow, you’re of Chinese-Russian mixed heritage, no wonder you’re so beautiful. When you lived in Russia, did you eat rye bread and red sausage every day? Karina burst into laughter at his question, her eyes turning into crescent moons, ha, I did eat rye bread and red sausage often, but there are so many delicious foods in Russia, like blini and borscht, I love those too. Wang Chan also became interested and asked, did you feel uncomfortable when you first returned to China? At first, it was definitely uncomfortable. Although I can speak Chinese, I couldn’t understand some dialects and slang and the lifestyle habits were quite different. But slowly, I fell in love with China. There are so many fun places here and an incredible amount of delicious food. Karina nodded gently, answering seriously. She looked at Wang Chen, a hint of surprise, flashing in her eyes. He was the most handsome boy she had ever seen and she couldn’t help but feel a flutter in her heart. Her face turned slightly red as she subconsciously tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, trying to make her tone sound more natural. The tall guy scratched his head and asked with a silly smile, you can speak Russian too, can you say a few words for us to hear? Karina replied crisply. Then she spoke a passage in fluent Russian, her unique pronunciation and intonation leaving everyone puzzled. Su Xingyao smiled, stood up, and walked to Karina’s side, explaining to everyone, what Karina just said was hello everyone, I am now a Chinese. Citizen, I have a Chinese passport. She was majoring in Russian, so it was normal for her to understand. Karina’s gaze inadvertently swept towards. Wang Chen, the two lot dies, and Wang Chen was momentarily taken aback. He quickly smiled politely and said, when you started speaking, I thought. It was some international superstar giving an acceptance speech. Your Russian sounds so impressive that I almost wanted to ask for your autograph. Karina burst into laughter at Wang Chen’s words, her eyes curbing into crescent moons. Her face radiated a brilliant smile as she replied, you really know how to joke. My level is far from that of an international superstar. But if you really want an autograph, I can give you one right now, aye. guarantee it will appreciate in value later nioban laughed so hard he nearly fell over wang chen you really can talk karina don’t be fooled by him he just wants to chat with you a bit more wang chen shot nioban a glare and smiled i’m being sincere karina you don’t know i’ve always been very interested in russian but i never had the chance to learn i feel like any random word in russian sounds particularly powerful i don’t believe you my mom says all men are big pig trotters karina said proudly everyone burst into laughter again halfway through the drinks, Karina suddenly asked Wang Chen, Wang Chen, do you often go to the gym? Why do you say that? Wang Chen took a sip of beer and asked, go to the gym? Not to mention this life, Wang Chen hadn’t been to a gym even once in his previous life. Karina tilted her head, her gaze assessing Wang Chen, a smile playing on her lips, I see you maintain your figure so well, and your muscle definition is quite obvious, so I guessed you must be a regular at the gym. And I saw your abs. Earlier, while chatting and drinking, the hem of Wang Chan’s shirt had inadvertently lifted, revealing a blimps of his abs, which Karina had caught perfectly. Wang Chan couldn’t say it was a gift from the system. He could only smile and say, you noticed. That? I do go to the gym often. Karina’s eyes lit up, excitedly saying, that’s great. I love working out too, I run to the gym whenever I have free. Time. Next time you go, can you invite me? We can guide each other. Sure, I’d love that, Wang Chan smiled. Wow, Karina, you’re too much. You’re. Already trying to flirt with the handsome Wangchen so quickly, Lin Shiyun teased with a giggle, winking at Karina on purpose. She leaned in close to Karina’s ear and whispered, you’re practically glued to him. If you like him, go for it, if you wait too long, someone else might snatch him away. Hearing Lin Shiyun’s teasing, Karina didn’t shy away, instead, she burst into laughter. She wrapped her arm around Lin Shiyun’s shoulder and unabashedly said, so what if you noticed? Wangchen is so charming, I like him, and that’s nothing to be ashamed of. After saying that, she threw a playful. wink at Wang Chen, her eyes full of boldness and straightforwardness. Wang Chen was somewhat surprised by Karina’s frank and passionate response. He immediately smiled and said, in that case, let’s exchange contact information for easier communication later. As soon as Karina heard this, she happily took out her phone, eagerly exchanging Feixin with Wang Chen. She even made a point to add a little heart emoji next to his Feixin account, name right in front of him. Her unabashed affection was practically spilling out of the screen. Wang Chen couldn’t help but marvel at how different. Foreign girls were. They dared to love and hate. When they liked someone, they went straight for it. Zheng Jin, Nyo Ben, and the tall guy looked on. With envy. Old Wang was impressive again, being actively sought after for Faixin by such a beautiful girl. And a foreign girl at that. Is this the. Difference? Wang Chin was tall, wealthy, and handsome. If they were girls, they would definitely like him too. Just as the two were adding. Each other as friends, sitting quietly in the corner and watching everything unfold. Zhang Wanwan’s face flashed with a hint of jealousy and resentment. She snorted lightly, stood up, and deliberately raised her voice, saying, some people really know how to show off. Just adding a contact and. Arranging a workout makes it seem like they’re about to start a romance. I wonder if they really have that much charm. As soon as the words left her. Mouth, the previously lively atmosphere cooled down a few degrees, and everyone awkwardly looked at Jung Won Won. Karina, however, seemed unfazed. She. Turned her head, a confident smile on her lips, and said to Jung Won Won, if you like someone, you should express it. Hiding and keeping it too. yourself is so boring. Besides, we’re just having a normal conversation. If you’re so interested, you can join in too. You’re not jealous that I added. Wang Chen on Feixin, are you? Jealous of you? What a joke. Zhang Wan Wan was taken aback by Karina’s words, her face alternating between white and red. Angrily, she huffed, I, Zhang Wan Wan, can add anyone’s contact information I want. Why would I care about something so trivial? It’s just that. You’re so proactive in front of everyone, not afraid of losing face. Wang Chen is just a bit handsome, why are you so eager to stick to him? I wonder. What you’re after. After saying this, she shot a sideways glance at Wang Chen, her face showing a hint of disdain. Maybe he thinks you’re too. Frivolous but is just too polite to refuse. I’m not like you, getting all hot and bothered over anyone I meet without considering my own worth. After. Venting her frustrations, Zhang Wan Wan looked at Karina provocatively, her nostrils flaring slightly. The people around them couldn’t help but gasp. They hadn’t expected Jiang Wan Wan to be so sharp-tongued and the tension in the air thickened instantly. Nyo Ben frowned, wanting to mediate. Everyone, let’s tone it down a bit. We’re all friends, let’s not ruin the atmosphere. Lin Shiryun also tugged at Karina’s sleeve, signaling her to let it go. What am I after? I know that well enough. Unlike some people, who clearly care deeply but pretend to be aloof. But Karina was not one to back. Down, she gently brushed Lin Shiryun’s hand away, a mocking smile curling at the corners of her mouth. If you really didn’t care, why bother with the sarcasm? Stop slandering me. I see you’re just blinded by love, thinking that finding anyone will lead to true love. You should take a look at your own identity, a foreigner, stirring up trouble here. Jiang Wanwan stepped forward, her finger almost poking Karina’s face, her voice trembling with anger. Karina’s gaze instantly sharpened like a knife. Unafraid, she met Jiang Wanwan’s eyes and stepped closer. The distance between them was so close that they could almost hear each other’s breaths, identity? All I know is that loving someone is my freedom. Unlike you, who doesn’t even have the courage to express your feelings and can only hide in the corner, spouting sour words. Though I’m a foreigner, I dare to love and hate, unlike you, who cowers and can’t even face your own heart. At that moment, the air around them seemed to freeze. Everyone watched the tense standoff with bated breath. Stop arguing. What does this look like? Zheng Zhen exclaimed, stamping his foot in frustration, urging them to calm down. Wang Chen frowned, a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes. Jiang Wanwan, enough. Karina is also your roommate, saying that is too much. After experiencing so many people and events since his rebirth, Wang Chen had long mastered the art of keeping his emotions in check, rarely showing such obvious feelings. But Jiang Wanwan’s baseless targeting still made him unable to hold back from intervening. Then, Wang Chen ignored Jiang Wanwan and turned to face Karina. He gently took Karina’s hand, his thumb softly stroking her knuckles. With a light laugh, he said, don’t be angry, it’s not worth getting upset. Over someone like that. Let’s leave first, we shouldn’t ruin the mood here. Karina looked up at Wang Chen, her eyes still holding onto the flames. Of anger. But upon meeting Wang Chen’s concerned gaze, those flames gradually diminished, replaced by a glimmer of cunning. What followed was a full display of grievance. She bit her lower lip, her eyes slightly reddening, as if she was holding back tears. At that moment, Zhang Zhen quickly said. It’s getting late, how about we call it a night and let everyone cool off? The crowd nodded in agreement. Then let’s gather another day, Wang Chen. Said to Zhang Zhen and the others. Wang Chen released Karina’s hand and walked towards the barbecue stall owner to settle the bill. The owner’s fingers danced swiftly over the calculator, and soon he announced that’ll be 3,500 yuan. Wang Chen’s expression remained calm, without a hint of hesitation, as he pulled out his phone to scan the payment code, completing the transaction in one smooth motion. Payment successful. After settling the bill, Wang Chen walked back to Karina’s side. He slightly turned his body and naturally took her delicate little hand, as if they had been close for a long time. Karina’s cheeks flushed slightly, a hint of shyness flashing in her eyes, yet she did not resist. She allowed Wang Chen to lead her as they turned and walked outside. Exiting the food street, Wang Chen brought Karina to the roadside, where a sleek Ferrari LaFerrari was quietly parked. The car’s lines were smooth, radiating a cold yet captivating sheen under the moonlight. Karina’s gaze was instantly drawn to the luxury car. She raised an eyebrow in surprise and couldn’t help but exclaim, I didn’t expect you to be quite wealthy. It’s nothing much, it’s getting late, so let. Me take you back to school, Wang Chen replied with a smile, opening the car door. Thank you, Karina responded with a radiant smile, bending down. To sit in the passenger seat of the LaFerrari. She reached for the seatbelt and fastened it. The car slowly started, gliding smoothly along the city. Streets. Along the way, Karina curiously examined the car’s interior, occasionally gasping in awe. Before long, Wang Chen drove the car into Fudan University. The campus was tranquil and serene, with moonlight spilling over the trees lining the paths casting dappled shadows. The car came to a gentle stop beneath the girl’s dormitory. Karina unfastened her seatbelt, turned to Wang Chen, her eyes filled with teasing, I owe you one for being. My hero tonight, how should I thank you? How about I treat you to traditional Russian cuisine next time? I guarantee you haven’t tried it. Horror. Fingers lightly traced the edge of her long, fair legs, her gaze fixed intently on Wang Chen, a meaningful smile playing at the corners of her mouth. Wang Chen’s lips curled up, forming a slightly playful arc. This was the vibe. Karina still wanted to play the game of teasing him. He looked at Karina. A hint of amusement flickering in his eyes, but he deliberately kept his composure and said, well, I look forward to it. Karina, satisfied with his response, smiled and pushed the car door open to get out. She stepped towards the girl’s dormitory, glancing back to wave at Wang Chen. Her golden hair swayed gently with her movement, shimmering alluringly in the moonlight. Wang Chen sat in the driver’s seat, watching Karina’s retreating figure. He leaned back slightly in his seat, his fingers lightly tapping the steering wheel, a smile unconsciously forming on his lips as he murmured. Interesting. After a while, Wang Chen finally started the car and slowly drove away from Fudan University. 40 minutes later, the car arrived at Zhengliang Haijing No. 1. Wang Chen skillfully drove into the underground parking garage, found his parking spot, and parked. He opened the car door and got out, preparing to head towards the elevator. At that moment, a luxury van slowly pulled up not far away. Simultaneously, a tall and stunning beauty emerged from the nearby elevator. She had a graceful figure, long, straight legs, and a waist so slim it seemed delicate. Dressed in a fitted, black dress, it perfectly accentuated her curvaceous silhouette. Although she wore a mask, her bright and deep-set eyes were still visible, but that. Unique aura and outstanding figure still made Wang Chen unable to help but glance over. Wang Chen’s gaze was drawn to her. For some reason, he felt that. The person in front of him looked very familiar, yet he couldn’t recall where he had seen her before. He furrowed his brows slightly, his eyes fixed. On the beauty. She seemed to sense Wang Chen’s gaze as well, turning her head slightly to glance at him, a hint of barely perceptible weariness flashing in her eyes, before she quickly walked towards the nanny van. She deftly opened the car door, sat inside, and the van soon drove away slowly. Wang Chen watched the departing vehicle filled with confusion, his mind continuously searching for memories related to this beauty, but he found nothing. He then shook his head, deciding not to think too much about it. He turned and walked towards his exclusive elevator, pressing the button for the top floor. Ding. The elevator door slowly opened. As the door opened, Wang Chen immediately saw two bodyguards and Uncle Li standing at the entrance. Uncle Li, what brings you here? Why don’t you come in and sit? Wang Chen quickly approached, a hint of surprise on his face. The two bodyguards beside him stood tall and nodded slightly in acknowledgement upon seeing Wang Chen. I just arrived not long ago. I figured you would be back soon. So I waited for you at the door, Uncle Li smiled. Wang Chen hurriedly said, Uncle Li, it must be tiring standing outside, come in quickly. Wang. Jianguo was indeed well aware of Wang Chen’s movements. He even knew exactly when he would return. Although it was somewhat helpless, it was also a form of protection from Wang Jianguo for Wang Chen. Top families placed great importance on their heirs and Wang Chen was no exception. He opened the door and the two of them walked inside together. Uncle Li placed the computer he was holding on the coffee table in the living room before sitting down. There was a hint of emotion in his expression as he said, Young master, it’s been a while since we last met and you look even more handsome. Wang Chan casually tossed the car keys onto the cabinet at the entrance and turned to pour a cup of tea for Uncle Lee. Uncle Lee, you’re still so polite. Did you come this time for something specific? It can’t just be to see me, right? Uncle Lee took the tea and took a small sip, saying, well, the head of the family asked me to bring you some information. He opened the computer, and a series of real estate listings instantly appeared on the screen. These are some properties that the old master has in Magic City. He said you can choose any you like. Wang Chan looked at the property. Information on the computer, somewhat surprised, why are there so many? I remember our family didn’t engage in real estate business, did we? The computer in front of him displayed over a hundred houses and villas. He had thought his father only had a few properties in Magic City, but he didn’t expect the number to be so large. And this was just Wang Jianguo’s properties in Magic City. What about nationwide? How many properties must Wang Jianguo have? A faint smile appeared on Uncle Li’s face, young master. Some of these houses were purchased by the head of the family in Magic City years. ago, and some were acquired as dead assets during business dealings. The head of the family said you can choose freely, these are the properties closest. To you. Wang Chen’s eyes widened as he stared at the computer screen, his fingers slowly gliding over the mouse. His gaze swept over the detailed. Information of each property filled with shock. He had thought these houses were all of Wang Jianguo’s properties in Magic City. He didn’t expect this to be just the ones closest to him. Wang Jianguo was impressive. He hadn’t realized he was so deep and hidden. If he had so many houses, how? many canaries could he raise wang chen took a deep breath leaning back against the sofa and waved his hand saying uncle lee tell my dad that i want all of these uncle lee was slightly taken aback clearly not expecting wang chen to want them all however he quickly reacted a look of satisfaction appearing on his face young master your ambition truly has a bit of the head of the family style uncle lee smiled with satisfaction and said since you’ve made your decision i’ll go back and report to the head of the family i will arrange for these houses to be transferred to your name as soon as possible and i will urge them to handle the relevant procedures quickly uncle lee said then began to pack up his computer preparing to get up and leave wang chen watched uncle lee’s actions and suddenly spoke up uncle lee wait a moment uncle lee stopped what he was doing and turned to look at wang chen with a puzzled expression wang chen frowned slightly a look of contemplation on his face there’s someone i need you to help me check on uncle lee sat back down on the sofa and said earnestly young master just say the word as long as it’s within my ability I will definitely help you with it. The Russian woman who had barbecue with me tonight, can you help me check if there’s any problem? Wang Chen. Said as he set down his teacup. Uncle Li immediately understood. He couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. The young master seemed carefree, yet he was. Actually quite meticulous. He was cautious even about the Russian female classmate he had dinner with tonight. Uncle Li nodded and said seriously. Young master, actually, as soon as you had contact with this Russian girl, the people below reported it to the head of the family. The head of the. Family has already instructed them to investigate her background. Currently, it seems this girl has no issues. Her parents are decent people, doing ordinary jobs in Russia, and her family background is clean. She returned to China to study, and her performance at school has been normal, she gets along well with her classmates. Uncle Li paused, a look of relief appearing on his face as he continued, Young master, I didn’t expect you to be so thoughtful now, knowing to keep an eye out. If the head of the family knew, he would definitely be proud of you. Wang Chan raised an eyebrow, eh? Faint smile curving his lips, it seems my dad is still the one thinking ahead. A beautiful girl from a foreign land approached him without warning. And Wang Chen couldn’t help but feel layers of doubt rising in his heart, making it hard to completely let down his guard. Human hearts are hard to. Fathom. It’s always wise to keep an eye out for things. Uncle Li’s smile of relief became even more pronounced as he straightened his back and looked. At Wang Chen, his eyes full of admiration. Young master, with this kind of thoughtfulness you will surely walk a steadier path in the future. Since you have no other instructions, I will return to report to the head of the family. Wang Chen stood up and personally escorted Uncle Li to the door, saying, Uncle Li, thank you for making this trip and for your efforts in helping me check these matters. Please take care of yourself on your way back. Uncle Li turned back, smiling and waving his hand. Young master, you are too polite. This is all part of my duty. If there is any news, I will inform you at the first opportunity. After Uncle Li left, Wang Chen walked back to the living room and sat down on the sofa again. The image. of Karina involuntarily resurfaced in his mind. The meat was already on the table. Wang Chen had no reason to let it go. He wanted to see if foreign. Women were as wild as rumored. Sitting on the sofa, Wang Chen’s lips curled into a determined smile. Dingling. At that moment, a sudden, urgent. Ringtone broke the silence in the room. Wang Chen picked up his phone and saw the name Qin Fen flashing on the screen. He frowned slightly and pressed. The answer button, hello, Lao Qin, what’s up so late? On the other end, Xinfin’s signature loud voice came through. Yo, Wang Chen, what time? Is it? You think I’m bothering you? You’re not with some pretty girl, are you? Stop joking. You know me, I’m not that charming. Just tell me what’s going on, don’t keep me in suspense. Wang Chen laughed and scolded. There really is something good for you. Xinfin chuckled. I recently found. Out about a super luxurious luxury goods auction, happening this weekend. Luxury goods auction, he deliberately paused for a moment, keeping Wang Chen. in suspense before saying, yes, this luxury auction is quite something. Many limited editions and unique pieces will be showcased, from globally. Limited luxury watches to high-end designer jewelry, it’s sure to be an eye-opener for you. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, intrigued, sounds interesting. But such auctions must have a high threshold, right? Xinfeng casually replied, oh, with our status, how could we not get in? I’ve already arranged the invitation for you, just waiting for your word. Sure, send me the address later, Wang Chen said nonchalantly. Upon hearing Wang Chen’s. agreement xin fun immediately said great i knew you’d be interested i’ll send you the address in a couple of days all right it’s settled then by the way do you have the auction catalog send me a copy i want to study it first xin fun responded no problem i’ll send it to you right away this auction is the biggest event in the wealthy circles of magic city lately many people are keeping an eye on it after hanging up wang chen lazily leaned back on the sofa looking at the auction catalog xin fun had sent him on his phone his long fingers gently swiped across the screen, his gaze scanning the items. The first thing that caught his eye was a limited edition Patek Philippe watch, with only five pieces released. Worldwide. He continued scrolling down. A piece of Van Cleef & Arpel’s haute couture jewelry caught his attention. It was a necklace adorned with top-quality sapphires and diamonds, dazzling and radiant. Not long after, Karina returned to the dormitory, humming a little tune as she walked into the bathroom, clearly in high spirits. A little while later, she emerged wrapped in a pink towel. Her wet golden hair was casually draped over her shoulders. As she faced the mirror, drying her hair. Creak. At that moment, the dormitory door was pushed open, and her roommates walked in, chatting and laughing. Karina, you’re back pretty early today. Why didn’t you go home with Wang Chen? Lin Shiyun asked, a bit surprised, teasingly. Karina’s cheeks instantly flushed, and she smiled. I’m not that kind of casual woman. We just met. Come on, spill it. How far have you two progressed? I don’t. Believe you haven’t done anything, Su Xingyao said, walking over to her, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. While drying her hair with a towel, Karina feigned calmness and smiled, please, don’t think too much. After we left, he just took me home. Russian girls may be passionate, but we’re not. That easy, okay? Su Xingyao persisted, gently shaking Karina’s arm, oh, don’t hide it. The corners of Karina’s mouth lifted, her eyes revealing an uncontainable smile, alright, I have to admit, he is quite charming. It’s easy to chat with him, he’s humorous and very much a gentleman. But it’s. Only the first meeting, what progress could there be? Don’t think of me as some lovesick fool, she playfully winked, looking innocently at the others. Lin Shiyun, with a gossiping expression, asked, did he say when you’ll meet again? Or did he invite you out? I really can’t deal with you guys. Karina playfully swatted Lin Shiyun’s hand, pretending to be helpless, he didn’t say, but I did mention inviting him to try Russian cuisine next. Time, I wonder if he’ll be interested. A glimmer of anticipation flashed in Karina’s eyes as Wang Chen’s figure appeared in her mind. The first. Time she saw Wang Chen, she was captivated by his handsome appearance. Young, handsome, and wealthy. Especially with the several million dollar. Vacheron Constantin watch on his wrist. It’s perfectly normal for rich people to spend millions on luxury cars and mansions, but spending tens. Of millions to buy a watch is enough to prove that Wang Chen comes from an extraordinary family, he is no longer comparable to an ordinary wealthy. Person. Just as Karina was immersed in her beautiful imagination of Wang Chen, Zhang Wanwan suddenly sneered and spoke in a sarcastic tone. Is it just because you know a rich man? Why are you so excited? Maybe he’s just playing around and doesn’t take you seriously at all. Sue. Xingyao couldn’t stand it anymore and frowned, saying, don’t say that. Karina and Wang Chen get along quite well. Why do you have to pour cold water on her? I’m just speaking the truth to prevent her from getting hurt too deeply later. Just wait and see, it won’t be long before Wang Chen completely forgets her. Zhang Wanwan, however, was unconvinced and rolled her eyes. Karina shook her head, remaining silent. She dried her. hair and returned to her bed. Karina looked at her long, straight legs and couldn’t help but reach out to touch them. He should like them, right? But it’s so late, why hasn’t Wang Chen sent a message yet? After a while, she couldn’t help it anymore and took the initiative to send Wang Chen a message, are you there? After sending the message, Karina stared intently at the phone screen, the light illuminating her face filled. With anticipation. Every passing second felt like torture and her fingers unconsciously traced lightly over the sheets. Time passed minute by minute, but the phone screen remained silent. There were no new message notifications. Karina sighed in disappointment, placing her phone beside her pillow and lying on her side. Yet her thoughts were like a wild horse, impossible to rein in. The more she thought, the more restless she became, tossing and turning in bed. One moment she pulled the blanket up to her chin, the next she kicked it off, trying to find a comfortable position, but she just couldn’t fall asleep. This was not how she imagined it would be. Usually, those rich second-generation students at school would reply to her messages almost instantly. Like devoted fans, they would go out of their way to please her. As long as she showed a hint of interest, they would do everything to win her favor, sending gifts and asking her out to eat. Their attentiveness was endless. But what about Wang? Chen? Since they parted, he hadn’t contacted her at all. Now that she took the initiative to message him, he still hadn’t replied. Karina? Couldn’t help but start to reflect, was there something she did wrong? Or was Wang Chen simply not interested in her at all, and their previous interactions were just out of gentlemanly courtesy? She recalled Jiang Wanwan’s sharp and bitter words. Could it be that she was right? Karina was unwilling to be looked down upon like this. She bit her lip and decided to wait a little longer. Maybe Wang Chen was just busy and perhaps he would reply soon. She opened her phone, looking at the chat interface with Wang Chen, her finger gently sliding across the screen, her eyes fixed. On the message are you there? Then she typed in another message and sent it. Wang Chen looked at the details of the items on his phone. Suddenly, a video call request from Karina popped up. He was slightly taken aback, then a smile appeared on his lips as he pressed the answer. Button. On the screen, Karina’s slightly nervous yet expectant face appeared. The moment she saw Wang Chen, her eyes lit up, but she cautiously asked, you, you finally answered the call. Were you busy just now? Wang Chen looked at Karina’s expression with some confusion and said, I’m really sorry, I was on the phone with a friend. Is there something you need at this late hour? Hearing Wang Chen’s response, Karina directly said, actually, it’s nothing particularly important. It’s just. I happen to have no classes tomorrow, and I was wondering if you’re free, could we go out and have some fun together? She lifted her head, her eyes full of expectation, staring unblinkingly at Wang Chen on the screen. Afraid to miss any change in his expression, Wang Chen raised an eyebrow slightly, a look of interest appearing on his face. After pondering for a moment, he said, tomorrow, let me think. Alright, I’m free tomorrow. Upon hearing Wang Chen’s agreement, Karina’s face instantly blossomed. With a radiant smile, she excitedly said, Great. I’ll wait for your news tomorrow. No problem, Wang Chan replied with a smile. After hanging up the phone, Karina tightly gripped her phone, pressing it against her chest, her whole body frozen as if under a spell, lying dazed on the bed. After a while, she finally came to her senses. Shyly covering her face, she dove into the blanket, rolling around on the bed, which drew a burst of laughter from her roommates. Lin Shiyun leaned over, teasingly asking, what’s going on with you? Did you win the lottery? Karina poked. Her head out from under the blanket, her face flushed, Wang Chan agreed to go on a date with me tomorrow. Wow! Su Xing Yeo exclaimed excitedly. I knew he was interested in you. Zhang Wan Wan, though still appearing indifferent, couldn’t help but chime in, looks like you’re serious. This time, but don’t get too deep into it. Karina waved her hand dismissively, oh, let’s not worry about that, let’s just enjoy tomorrow’s date. First, she began bustling in front of the wardrobe, rummaging through clothes while discussing outfits and date plans with her roommates. Wang Chen looked at the dozens of messages Karina had sent earlier and couldn’t help but chuckle. After sending the first message, Wang Chen had said. His phone to do not disturb mode. Sometimes, it’s nice to let things simmer. Maybe the next date will be even better. He just never expected. That this girl, who grew up in Russia, would be so proactive. Wang Chen reached out and clicked in. The first was a selfie, accompanied by the. Caption, back to the dorm today, suddenly wanted to show you my little space. Next was a series of food pictures, all traditional Russian. Dishes she had made herself. From the rich red borscht to delicate blini. Scrolling down, there were some photos of Karina on campus. Wang Chen’s. Gaze was suddenly drawn to one photo. She was wearing a fitted black dress, her long, straight legs wrapped in black stockings paired with exquisite stiletto heels. Below were photos of her in a black JK outfit. Especially the one where Karina wore burgundy fishnet stockings. She was half reclining on a soft sofa, one hand casually resting on the armrest, the other playing with her hair, her gaze lazy and alluring. The caption read, a spontaneous outfit, a bit shy, scrolling further down, there was a series of photos of Karina in white lace thigh high. Stockings. silver glittery over the knee stockings. He sat up slightly, his gaze firmly captured by those photos, the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifting, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. Wang Chen was already accustomed to various beauties. Yet, Karina’s photos stirred different waves in his heart. A true leg show series. As he scrolled through the screen, he couldn’t help but exclaim, no. Wonder she’s a Sino-Russian mix, her figure is absolutely stunning. Looking at Karina’s sweet and sexy photos on his phone, he felt a surge of heat coursing through him. His blood began to flow faster, enveloped by an indescribable excitement. Damn, what a fairy. Wang Chen muttered. Under his breath, his fingers hurriedly swiping across the phone screen, dialing Long Lily’s number. As soon as the call connected, he couldn’t. Wait to say, Lily, you need to come up right now. It’s so late, what do you need me for? Long Lily’s playful voice came from the other end. Of the line. I miss you. Wang Chen’s tone grew more urgent, his gaze still lingering on Karina’s photos, images of Long Lily began to surface. in his mind, and he desperately needed another form of stimulation to calm the restlessness within him at that moment. Really? Then I’ll come. Right away. Although Long Lily was a bit puzzled, she obediently agreed. After hanging up the phone, Wang Chen took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. Before Long, Long Lily walked in. You were so eager to find me, did you miss me? Long Lily giggled as she leaped into Wang Chen’s arms, her arms skillfully wrapping around his neck. Her soft voice was filled with a hint of coquetry. Today, she wore a tight short skirt. Paired with black stockings, perfectly outlining her curvaceous figure. Her long wavy hair casually draped over her shoulders, and she exuded. A faint scent of perfume. Wang Chen instinctively embraced her. Yet, images of Karina in various stockings kept flashing in his mind, those poses. Either seductive or innocent, firmly capturing his attention. Hubby, I specially wore the black stockings you like the most. Long lily rubbed. Against Wang Chen in his embrace, acting cute. Wang Chen took a deep breath, making an effort to dispel Karina’s figure from his mind, slowly. redirecting his thoughts back to long lily in front of him his gaze gradually focused seriously examining the beauty in his arms long lily’s delicate little face was so close her slightly flushed cheeks exuding a touch of innocence and her big watery eyes were filled with affection for him baby you look so enchanting today wang chen’s voice was deep and magnetic filled with sincerity then he gently supported long lily’s waist pulling her closer it was as if he wanted to merge her into his body his lips traced from long lily’s forehead slowly sliding down to her cheek finally resting on her lips as he kissed her passionately long lily responded fervently to wang chen’s kiss her hands gripping his back tightly her nails almost digging into his skin her breath became rapid and hot fanning against wang chen’s face wang chen’s hands began to wander restlessly slowly moving from long lily’s waist upwards gently caressing her back sending shivers through her long lily let out a soft moan her voice filled with intoxication and desire her body instinctively pressing closer to wang chen seemingly wanting more wang Chen scooped Long Lily up and strode towards the bedroom. Long Lily’s long wavy hair spread out wantonly on the pillow, her gaze hazy, filled. With a misty allure as she looked at Wang Chen. Wang Chen’s lips left Long Lily’s trailing down her neck, leaving a series of heated kisses. In an instant, the entire room echoed with Long Lily’s delicate gasps and Wang Chen’s deep breaths. Ten thousand words omitted here. Omega? The next day. At five in the afternoon, the sun was still blazing. He walked to the window, pulled back the curtains, and the. Glaring sunlight instantly flooded the room, causing him to squint slightly. Noticing the time, he realized it was getting late. Karina must be getting anxious. Wang Chen walked into the bathroom, freshened up, and tidied his hair in front of the mirror. Then he went downstairs towards the garage. Wang Chen opened the door of the Lamborghini and sat in the driver’s seat. The roar of the engine instantly shattered the tranquility of the garage. Wang Chen sent a message to Karina, then skillfully maneuvered the steering wheel, driving towards Fudan University. On the other. side. In the girls dormitory at Fudan University, Karina glanced at her phone from time to time, her eyes filled with anxiety and unease. She had gotten up early today to get ready but she had yet to receive any message from Wang Chen. Ding! The crisp notification sound on her phone was particularly jarring in the quiet dormitory causing Karina to jump. When she saw that the message was from Wang Chen, her tense shoulders instantly relaxed and she let out a heavy sigh. The frown that had been tightly knit from anxiety unfurled, replaced by an uncontrollable smile. at the corners of her mouth. She quickly replied to Wang Chen’s message then she stood in front of the mirror, quickly assessing herself. Taking a deep breath to calm her excited heart, she stepped out of the dormitory with a light stride. Soon, Karina arrived at the entrance of Fudan University. She wore a light yellow off-shoulder crop top and a high-waisted white A-line mini skirt, looking playful and cute. Her legs were tightly wrapped in skin-colored ultra-thin stockings, exuding a hint of temptation in the sunlight. On her feet were a pair of beige flats. Her long golden hair was casually tied into a high ponytail, with a few strands falling beside her cheeks, adding to her allure. She stood. By the steps at the entrance, her eyes fixed on the intersection, not missing any passing cars. Occasionally, a gentle breeze would stir her golden ponytail, and a few strands would lightly brush against her cheeks. She instinctively tucked the hair behind her ear, her gaze never leaving. The intersection. At this moment, it was the end of class, and the flow of people at the school gate gradually increased. The passing boys were. All captivated by Karina’s beauty. Some boys merely stole a quick glance before shyly lowering their heads and hurrying past. Others openly stared at her, their eyes filled with admiration and infatuation, even forgetting the path beneath their feet and nearly colliding with a nearby lamppost, causing laughter among those around. Just as Karina eagerly awaited Wang Chen’s arrival, a black BMW M5 slowly came to a stop in front of her. The window rolled down, revealing a familiar face, Li Yi, her previous suitor. A freshman at Fudan University, he had a bit of money and. had pursued Karina since the start of the semester. Karina had rejected him many times but he clung on like a stubborn adhesive. Lee was dressed in a full set of branded casual wear his hair meticulously styled. He wore a self-satisfied smile completely ignoring Karina’s cold demeanor and got out of the car saying Nana long time no see. What are you doing standing here? Do you want me to give you a ride? No thank you. I’m waiting for someone Karina replied slightly furrowing her brows and offering a polite smile. The curious glances from passing classmates made Karina feel quite embarrassed, she just wanted to get rid of Li’i quickly. However, Li’i remained thick-skinned and even tried to pull Karina closer, Nana, don’t be so distant. I know a restaurant with great food, just consider it a favor for me. Karina’s face filled with disgust as she quickly sidestepped and shouted, don’t go too far. I said I’m waiting for my boyfriend. If you keep this up, I’ll call security. The number of passing classmates increased, forming a small circle around them. Some began to whisper, why is this guy like this? She’s already. Rejected him, yet he won’t give up. Seriously, so lacking in grace. I know him, he’s a freshman who had a conflict with the instructor. Right after school started and almost got into a fight. These whispers reached Li Yi’s ears, causing his face to alternate between white and red. Boyfriend? Hmm, I think you’re just making excuses to brush me off. Li Yi shouted, his neck veins bulging. Look at me, I just bought this. BMW M5 is a freshman, worth nearly 2 million. What man can compare to me? Your so-called boyfriend isn’t driving a junk car to pick you up. Is he? You’ll be embarrassed then. He slammed his hand on the BMW’s hood, the sharp sound cutting through the noisy crowd. I don’t believe. You can find a man better than me. If you keep this up, I really will call the police. Karina said impatiently. The surrounding classmates began to point and whisper, making Li-E feel increasingly awkward. Is he a student at Fudan University? I want to see who dares to steal my woman. Li-E scoffed. Karina felt a wave of irritation but was helpless. Boom. Boom. Suddenly, a deep and oppressive engine roar approached. From a far.a an orange-yellow Lamborghini, like a fierce beast, slowly drove into the sight of the crowd. The car’s lines were smooth and highly aggressive. The exaggerated air intakes and large wheels spoke volumes about its immense power. The surrounding students were instantly captivated. By this sudden luxury car, those who had been pointing fingers at Li E now gaped in astonishment. Wow, this Lamborghini is so cool. How much? Must this cost? It’s like a dream car. This is a Lamborghini Aventador, and I heard it costs tens of millions. Various exclamations rose and fell. The Lamborghini came to a steady stop not far from Karina and Lee. The doors opened in a unique scissor door style, causing another stir among the crowd. Wang Chen stepped out of the car. Standing at a height of 1 .88 meters, he appeared even more imposing. Wang Chen wore a blue limited edition Gucci spring summer casual blazer, with the iconic double G embroidery on his chest, showcasing the brand’s unique charm. underneath he had on a fitted white gavinchi base layer that accentuated his toned muscles he paired it with a pair of ripped black dior um jeans the distressed areas perfectly handled exuding both fashion and sophistication the unique stitching details further hinted at the high price on his feet were off-white x nike collaboration air force one sneakers the iconic structural design and unique industrial style laces made them stand out among other footwear becoming a seasonal trend the white leather base of the shoes paired with a black swoosh logo and red for embellishments, was simple yet distinctive. The collaboration label on the tongue further highlighted his extraordinary status and high price. He casually adjusted his cuffs, inadvertently revealing a Vacheron Constantine 56 watch on his wrist. This subtle movement did not escape the eyes of some girls nearby. Look at his watch. That’s the Vacheron Constantine 56, a global limited edition, they say you can’t even buy it with money. This is too exaggerated, he’s handsome, fit, and so rich, he’s like a dream guy. One girl cupped her face with her. hands, her eyes sparkling with admiration, speaking in a lovestruck tone. Right? And look at that Lee, driving a beat-up BMW and still making. A fuss here. Just one piece of his outfit would take me ages to save up for. Yeah, that Gucci suit and those to your jeans, this whole outfit. Probably costs as much as an ordinary person’s annual salary. A well-dressed girl whispered to her friend, her tone filled with helplessness and. Emotion. The key is, he’s driving a Lamborghini Aventador. Another voice in the crowd exclaimed in admiration. His gaze remained fixed on. Wang Chen, as if watching an unattainable dream. At this bustling school gate, Wang Chen’s appearance was like a ray of light, illuminating the ordinary perspectives of everyone, yet also reflecting the harsh truth of life. The wealthy are born surrounded by riches and comfort. Their world is a castle built of luxury goods, a glamorous stage adorned with luxury cars and high-end watches. Just like Wang Chen’s Vacheron Constantine, 56 watch, a symbol of exquisite craftsmanship and top-tier luxury, an existence that countless people can only admire in magazines. For him, It was merely a part of his daily attire. And what about ordinary people? They struggle against the tides of life, working hard and saving. Diligently, just to live a stable life. They might toil for a year, yet the money they save wouldn’t even be enough to buy a single item from one. Chan’s Outfit.A Lamborghini Aventador. A dream that ordinary people can only aspire to, yet may never touch. This gap is not merely a comparison. Of material wealth, but a stark difference in life trajectories. It is not something that can be attained through hard work alone. Ordinary. People toil quietly in their mundane lives content with small bits of happiness. The wealthy, on the other hand, gallivant in their privileged environments, enjoying the myriad wonders of life. At this moment, Wang Chen stood there, becoming a clear dividing line between two worlds, drawing the admiration and envy of many, yet also their helplessness. Wang Chen walked steadily towards Karina and Li Yi. Damn, it can’t be. That coincidental. Amidst the gasps and murmurs, Li Yi’s expression turned extremely grim. His gaze flickered back and forth between Wang Chen. And Karina, uncertain. As he watched Wang Chen approach, an ominous premonition surged within him. He clenched his fists tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging, this, how is this possible? How can it be a Lamborghini Aventador? This is a car I wouldn’t even dare to dream of. Lee’s voice was filled with bitterness and unwillingness. His once-proud BMW M5 instantly lost all its luster in front of this orange-yellow beast, becoming an inconspicuous presence. Lee thought that with his modest wealth, he could impress Karina, unaware that in the face of. True aristocracy, his pride, and confidence were utterly fragile. It wasn’t until Wang Chen stood firmly beside Karina, naturally wrapping his arms around her slender waist that Li Yi felt as if he had awakened from a dream. He stared at Wang Chen, unwillingly saying, You, you are. Her boyfriend? How is that possible? How could it be you? Shock and anger intertwined on his face, yet there was an unmistakable hint of panic. It was as if, at that moment, the superiority he had built up over time had completely collapsed. Karina leaned into Wang Chen’s embrace and said. To Lee, I told you long ago that I have a boyfriend. You insisted on clinging on, now you should believe it. The surrounding classmates began. To whisper, occasionally bursting into laughter. Lee really made a fool of himself this time. Yeah, still bragging about his BMW while. She’s with a Lamborghini Aventador. He’s still here clinging on, not even looking at his own level. I’m cringing for him. Who said? Otherwise? Thinking a bit of money means you can do whatever you want, now he’s been slapped in the face. These words washed overly. E like a tide, completely drowning him. His face turned beet red, you, you. Surely, you didn’t come here in a junk car to pick her up? You’ll be embarrassed then. I refuse to believe you can find a man better than me. As Li E recalled his previous words, he felt a burning sensation on his face, as if he had been slapped hard several times. Those words, at this moment, were like boomerangs, accurately hitting him. Back. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something to salvage his dignity. But his throat felt blocked, unable to produce a sound. Li E finally. understood why Karina had always treated him with disdain. It turned out that Karina had found a rich second generation who was wealthier than him. His so-called superior conditions were nothing but trivial in her eyes. Let’s go. Wang Chen blanced at Li Yi and said lightly. Ah um ha um. Karina nodded obediently. Li Yi’s gaze blankly followed the direction in which Wang Chen and Karina left. The pointing and whispering of the surrounding classmates seemed to echo in his ears. After a long while, he slowly came back to his senses, instinctively looking at his BMW M5. Once, this car was his pride, the source of his confidence, but now, under the backdrop of the Lamborghini, it seemed so dull and lifeless that even, he felt the BMW M5 looked a bit shabby. He couldn’t help but chuckle at himself as he approached the car door. Wang Chen gently pressed the key. The Lamborghini scissor doors slowly rose, carving a unique arc in the air, causing a stir among the crowd around them. Wang Chen was the first to sit in the driver’s seat. Karina cautiously stepped her long legs into the car. Once seated, her gaze was immediately drawn to the luxurious interior. Wow, this interior is so cool! Karina couldn’t help but exclaim, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and excitement. Her hand gently caressed the delicate leather material of the seat, feeling the quality brought by top-notch craftsmanship. The carbon fiber trim inside. The car, the exquisite stitching, and the high-tech dashboard. Every detail showcased ultimate luxury and sophistication. A slight smile crapped. Onto Wang Chan’s lips as he pressed the button to start the engine. The deep, resonant roar of the engine instantly filled the air, making the surrounding atmosphere tremble. Do you like it? It will often take you around in the future, Wang Chan said as he skillfully drove the vehicle. Away from Fudan University. The car smoothly hit the road. Wang Chan’s right hand naturally fell on Karina’s long, straight thigh clad in sheer stockings. The silky sensation made Wang Chan pause for a moment. He gently caressed. Karina was slightly taken aback, a hint of blush crossing. Her face. She didn’t refuse, instead, she leaned her leg closer to Wang Chen, making it easier for him to touch. Karina felt the warmth radiating. From his palm, her heart racing a little faster. She looked up at Wang Chen, a smile playing on her lips, you seem quite serious, but I didn’t. Expect you to be so forward. Wang Chen chuckled lightly, turning to look at Karina, his eyes filled with mischief, in front of my girlfriend. This isn’t being forward, it’s called expressing intimacy. As he spoke, he gently squeezed Karina’s thigh, his movements natural and smooth. Hearing this, Karina feigned anger and swatted his hand away, who’s your girlfriend? We’ve only known each other for two days, don’t say such things. But the smile at the corner of her mouth was impossible to hide, and her eyes were full of teasing. Wang Chen was unfazed, he placed his hand back on the steering wheel and said lightly, it’s only a matter of time, isn’t it? The car drove steadily along the main road of the city. Karina didn’t respond to Wang Chen’s words. After a while, as if remembering something, she turned to Wang Chen and asked, by the way, where? Are we going now? You’ll know when we get there, Wangshin said with a slight smile, his gaze still focused ahead, speaking leisurely. You. Just love to keep me guessing, I’m not that curious anyway, Karina huffed lightly, crossing her arms in mock dissatisfaction. Soon, night fell. The car slowly entered the bond, and the colorful lights instantly flooded through the car windows, enveloping the two of them. The Wong Pu. River shimmered, with boats weaving back and forth on the water. What are we doing here? Karina frowned slightly, it’s so expensive to eat. Here, why don’t we go somewhere else? Wang Chen patted her hand and gently shook his head. He parked the car by the roadside, unbuckled his seatbelt, and got out. Karina stepped out of the car, slightly puzzled, as the river breeze gently lifted her hair. Wang Chen turned to look at. Karina tenderly and said, I just wanted to bring you to see a light show that’s just for you. With that, Wang Chen raised his hand and pointed to the buildings across the river. Karina followed the direction of his finger, her heart filled with confusion. A light show? Just then, the Lights on the big screen of the Bun’s Genoa building suddenly changed, the originally colorful lights began to flicker and change rhythmically, as if conducted by an invisible hand, gradually outlining romantic patterns. First, a huge heart appeared, followed by flashes of romantic light. And shadow. Finally, several sparkling large characters emerged, Karina Jean Hsien, accompanied by Karina’s avatar. Oh my god! Karina! exclaimed, covering her mouth in surprise, her eyes sparkling with delight, this. Did you arrange this for me? She turned to Wang Chen, her. voice trembling slightly as she asked karina was clearly moved by the scene before her do you like it wang chan smiled and nodded gently brushing her wing tousled hair as he said from the moment i saw you i wanted to create some special memories for you wang chan’s gaze was sincere and passionate appearing especially affectionate under the lights karina’s cheeks flushed slightly she avoided wang chan’s gaze lowered her head and softly said i i really like it thank you wang chan a warm current surged in karina’s heart at this moment she just wanted to immerse herself in this sudden romance. Seeing Karina’s touched expression, Wang Chen felt a deep sense of satisfaction, not regretting the millions he had spent. As long as you like it, this is nothing for me. He gently took Karina’s hand and said tenderly. Karina looked up, her eyes glistening with tears, gazing deeply into Wang Chen’s eyes. Just then, Karina seemed to suddenly realize something and asked with a hint of confusion, such a spectacular light show must have cost a lot, right? Actually, it wasn’t that much, the cost for a 30 second. Advertisement is about 20,000 yuan and I booked it for 8 hours directly. Wang Chen replied casually. Ding! The system detected that. The host spent 19,200,000. Double cashback 38 ,400,000. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 19 ,20 system points. So expensive. Why? Would you spend so much money on me? Karina’s eyes widened in shock upon hearing the figure filled with disbelief. 19,200 ,000. This was an astronomical number she couldn’t even dare to imagine. Although her family had a bit of money, they were just an ordinary household. She had never seen such extravagant wealthy people. 19,200,000 and Wang Chen had casually bought. A light show. And it was only for 8 hours. She could never have imagined that Wang Chen would so generously spend money for her. Karina’s heart was a mix of emotions, moved, shocked, and a hint of unies intertwined. Wang Chen’s wealth exceeded her imagination. She didn’t know. whether it was right or wrong to have attracted Wang Chen. After a long while, she finally found her voice and stammered, 19. 19. Million two hundred thousand, this, this is simply unimaginable. Her voice was filled with shock and disbelief, the astronomical figure. Echoing in her mind, Karina unconsciously tightened her grip on the hem of her clothes, her heart racing. Don’t think too much, I just wanted to. Give you an unforgettable surprise. Wang Chen said lightly. He gently pulled Karina closer to him. He slightly lowered his head, looking into. Karina’s eyes, and said earnestly, for me, seeing you happy is the most worthwhile thing. Money is just a tool to achieve that. Karina took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. As a mixed-race individual of Chinese and Russian descent, Karina possessed the straightforwardness of a Russian girl and the grace of a Chinese woman. She bit her lower lip, raised her head, and met Wang Chen’s gaze with composure. Wang Chen, I am very grateful for everything you have done for me. I will always remember this romance in my heart. But I don’t want you to think that I am with you because of your money. I like you because of who you are. From the very first day we met, I could feel your care and respect for me. Weinchen gently nodded, his eyes filled with understanding and appreciation. I understand what you mean. I never thought of it that way, I just, simply want to give you the best. If my actions have put any pressure on you, I’m sorry. It’s not pressure, just that everything has come. So suddenly, I need time to adjust. Karina shook her head. Girls are always subtle, even if she grew up abroad. Deep down, she possesses the, unique qualities of foreign women. but she also didn’t want Wang Chen to think she was a vain woman. A fleet of pleasure boats slowly glided across the river. Laughter and joy filled the air from the people on board. Karina took a deep breath. The coolness of the river breeze made her feel more awake. I want to have a real relationship with you, starting from the little things in life, not just these extravagant surprises. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed, Wang Chen chuckled lightly. He naturally understood Karina’s thoughts, just like Xia Zhu in the movie that had just been released this year. The crazy and luxurious romance that Wang Duoyu created for Xia Zhu ultimately revealed his true feelings to her. Xia Zhu seemed to dislike money, yet those romantic gestures built on wealth genuinely opened her heart. Love can indeed be quite mysterious at times, leaving one puzzled. However, while money is not the only measure of affection, it can be a unique way to express love. I believe no girl could refuse a light show worth 19 million. If there is, then add a fireworks show worth 19 million as well. Wang Chen raised his hand to reveal the Vacheron Constantin watch on his wrist and glanced at the time. Unknowingly, it was. Getting late. It’s getting late, let’s go. Where to? To eat. A mysterious smile played at the corners of Wang Chen’s mouth as he gently tilted his chin towards the river. Karina looked in the direction Wang Chen indicated. There, a magnificent luxury cruise ship was quietly docked. On the river, its body shining brightly, glimmering under the lights. Every detail showcased extreme luxury. Oh my god, are you kidding me? She couldn’t help but gasp, her eyes wide with surprise. Eating on that? That’s too extravagant. Wang Chin shrugged nonchalantly, gently taking. Karina’s hand, speaking in a relaxed and casual tone, it’s just a home-cooked meal, the environment here is just right. Karina was pulled. Along by him, walking forward while unable to suppress her murmurs, this home-cooked meal setup is something ordinary people can’t afford. Though. She said that, the curiosity and excitement sparkling in her eyes were impossible to hide. The two headed towards the cruise ship. The river. Breeze carried a hint of moisture brushing against their faces. The international buildings along the shore displayed various styles under the lights, gothic spires, baroque carvings. On the shimmering river surface, boats weaved in and out. The lights from the boats cast long shadows on the water, resembling a flowing galaxy. Soon, they arrived in front of the luxurious cruise ship named ICBC No. 1. Karina looked up at the impressive ship before her, her heart filled with shock. Wang Chen smiled as he introduced, this ICBC number one is not simple, it was once a dedicated cruise ship for the Six Nations Summit hosting heads of state and dignitaries and is hailed as the most beautiful moving scenery on the Pooh River. Originally, Wang Chen wanted to book the most luxurious cruise ship for dinner but Long Lily said that ICBC number one was also quite good. ICBC even has its name on it, Karina walked along, unable to help but admire every detail of the cruise ship, murmuring, this is so stunning. I can hardly believe I’m on such a cruise. As they boarded the ship and stepped into the lobby, Karina was taken aback by the site before. Horror. A massive crystal chandelier hung from the ceiling. The translucent crystals refracted a kaleidoscope of colors, illuminating the entire lobby. As bright as day. The surrounding walls were not adorned with expensive artworks, but rather decorated with meticulously designed promotional posters for the Poojan tour, showcasing the unique charm and historical depth of this city, the magic capital. Welcome, Mr. Wang. This way, please. A server in a crisp uniform approached with a smile, leading them to the restaurant. Before their arrival, Long Lily had arranged everything for Wang Chan and reserved the best table. The server guided Wang Chan and Karina through the restaurant. Along the way, soft lighting, soothing music and the warm atmosphere of diners conversing in hushed tones intertwined. They arrived at an excellent table by the window, offering a breathtaking view of the dazzling night scene of the bond. As soon as they sat down, the server presented an exquisite menu. Wang Chan. took the menu, his gaze quickly scanning the diverse offerings. It listed a rich variety of dishes from the local specialties of thick, rich sauces to delicate Western cuisine. Dining in such a romantic place with a girl, of course, they would order Western food paired with red wine. At 8 o’clock in the evening, the industrial bank crews began its night tour of the Pujang River, accompanied by the sound of the ship’s horn. The servers gradually brought out the Western dishes Wang Chen had ordered. A beautifully presented Wellington stay, accompanied by French foie. gras, delicately topped with glistening caviar, and a plate of Italian meat sauce pasta, fragrant and inviting, just as Carina was captivated by the exquisite food before her, Wang Chin gently snapped his fingers. Before long, a sommelier in a black suit approached with elegant steps, holding a delicate wooden wine box. The sommelier carefully opened the box, revealing a bottle of 1982 Chateau Lafite Rothschild red wine lying, quietly inside. He skillfully showcased the wine label, then expertly uncorked the bottle and poured the wine slowly into a decanter, his movements. fluid and professional. Karina couldn’t wait to take out her phone. First, she snapped a picture of the entire table of dishes, then focused. The camera on the night view outside. This 1982 Lafite has an excellent vintage, with a rich and complex taste and a strong fruit aroma that pairs perfectly with tonight’s meal, Wang Chen explained to Karina with a smile. Isn’t this a bit extravagant? Karina’s eyes widened slightly. Filled with surprise, how much would a bottle of 82 Lafite cost? Do rich people usually eat at places like this? Karina asked curiously. The sommelier poured the decanted wine into crystal clear wine glasses and presented them to the two. Wang Chan raised his glass, gently swirling it, the dark red liquid spinning in the glass, releasing an enchanting aroma. He clinked glasses with Karina and said lightly, it’s not as extravagant as you think. This is my first time dining here too. Karina took a small sip of the wine, the liquid spreading on her tongue, it’s rich. Flavor intoxicating her. Mmm, this is really delicious, she exclaimed. Actually, these high-end restaurants, while the dishes are as exquisite as artworks, often can’t compare in taste to those bustling little eateries on the streets. You’re absolutely right. Karina’s eyes lit up as if she had found a kindred spirit, excitedly saying, I grew up in Russia, and to be honest, the food there is a disaster. When I first returned to China and had my first taste of Chinese cuisine in middle school, it felt like discovering heaven. It was so delicious. Those borscht and rye bread can really get boring after a while. But the food in huagua, with its spicy and fragrant flavors, is incredibly rich in. Variety. Karina shared enthusiastically, When I first tried hot pot, I was absolutely stunned. A whole table of people gathered together, lively. And bustling, dipping various ingredients into the pot and enjoying the sauces we made ourselves. That taste is something I still can’t forget. Ever since I returned to huagua, I wouldn’t want to go back to Russia even if you paid me. Wang Chen couldn’t help but laugh at her animated. Expression. It seems you really know your food. Do you have a particular favorite dish from huagua? Karina tilted her head in thought, her eyes sparkling, there are just too many to choose from. But if I had to pick, I absolutely love Sichuan cuisine, like maipo tofu and kung pao. Chicken, spicy, numbing, and fragrant, every bite is incredibly satisfying. I also really enjoy the food from Qin province. Karina’s eyes lit. Up as she continued, things like oil splash noodles and meat sandwiches, just thinking about them makes my mouth water. The first time I had. Oil splash noodles, a hot oil poured over the chili and minced garlic, that aroma just wafted up. Eating it was such a delight. And the meat sandwich, with its crispy outer skin, taking a bite makes it crumble and is so satisfying. Grilled skewers are also delicious, sprinkled. With cumin and chili powder, sizzling with oil, taking a bite truly fills you with happiness. After finishing, Karina couldn’t help but show a look of bliss on her face. If I get the chance, I’ll take you back to Sichuan province to eat authentic Sichuan cuisine, Wang Chen suggested. With a smile. Really? That would be amazing. I can’t wait. Karina exclaimed, nearly bouncing with excitement. Under the soft lighting, the two enjoyed the food while sipping on expensive red wine. The dazzling night view of the Pujang River on both sides constantly changed. Colors and shadows. The river breeze blew in, gently stirring Karina’s beautiful hair. Wang Chen took a sip of red wine, the rich aroma blending, even more intensely with the romantic atmosphere. Before they knew it, the cruise was quietly nearing its end, with a melodious horn. Sound, the industrial bank slowly returned to the dock where they had set off. Wang Chen put down his wine glass and said to Karina, it’s about. Time, we should go. Whom? Karina nodded slightly, her eyes filled with reluctance. She was still immersed in this wonderful evening. Wang Chen called over a waiter to settle the bill. In a short while, the waiter approached respectfully with the bill. Wang Chen took the bill and glanced at the details. For this dinner, they had ordered Wellington steak, French foie gras, Italian meat sauce pasta, and more, along with that. expensive bottle of 1982 Lafite Rothschild red wine, plus the service charge on the cruise. The total cost was 385,000 yuan. Among them, that bottle of 82 Lafite red wine accounted for a staggering 320,000 yuan at this year’s market price. Wang Chen took out his bank card and handed it to the waiter. The payment was completed. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 385 ,000 and a double cashback of 770,000 is granted. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 38 system points. After disembarking from the cruise, standing by the dock, the cool light breeze made Karina instinctively wrap her coat tighter. The two got into a car. Karina asked, Are you taking me back to school? Do you want to go? Back to the dorm? Wang Chen smiled. Seeing his expression, Karina didn’t answer but turned to admire the night view outside. The car sped down. The road. Soon they arrived at the W Hotel on the Bund in the Magic City. The two walked into the hotel lobby. The warm yellow light softly illuminated the space. The modern and stylish decor cleverly incorporated the charm of old Shanghai. Arriving at the front desk, a sweet smiling young lady in uniform said, Welcome to the W Hotel on the Bund, how may I assist you? I’d like to book an E-W-O-W suite. Wang Chen nodded slightly and handed over his ID card. Hello, sir, the cost for the E-W-O-W suite for one night is $188,000. How many nights would you like to book, the receptionist said enthusiastically. Just tonight, Wang Chen replied. All right, sir, please wait a moment while I process this for you. The receptionist took the ID card with both hands and quickly began operating the computer, skillfully verifying the information while maintaining a sweet smile as she introduced. Our EWOW suite is equipped with oversized floor-to-ceiling windows that offer breathtaking views of the beautiful night scenery along both banks of the Pujang River and the skyline of Lugiazwi in Pudon. The room features a unique bed that ensures you have a comfortable sleep. The toiletries are all from high-end brands and the suite also has a separate living room, spacious and fully equipped, with all amenities. In no time, the receptionist returned the ID card and room key to Wang Chen, along with a printed receipt, saying, Mr. Wang, here are your room key and check-in voucher, your room is on the 35th floor, the elevator is just to your right, swipe your room key to reach the corresponding floor. If you have any needs, you can call the service number in your room at any time, our hotel provides 24-hour. Attentive service. Okay, thank you, Wang Chen said as he took the room key and receipt, nodding in gratitude. He then turned to Karina and softly said, let’s go. Wang Chen took Karina’s hand and walked towards the elevator. Upon reaching the elevator, Wang Chen swiped the room key and pressed the button for the 35th floor. The elevator ascended slowly and Karina leaned against Wang Chen’s shoulder, curiously asking, is this sweet really 188,000 for one night? That’s so expensive. It’s not too bad, Wang Chen replied with a slight smile, gently patting her head. Besides, the scenery and service here are top-notch, tonight will definitely leave you with unforgettable memories. Karina’s cheeks flushed, slightly as she nuzzled into Wang Chen’s embrace, mumbling softly, bad guy, ding. Soon, the elevator reached the 35th floor. Stepping out of the elevator, a faint fragrance wafted through the corridor. Wang Chen swiped the room key to open the door. What greeted his eyes was a spacious and bright living room, exuding luxury and style. The oversized floor-to-ceiling windows showcased the dazzling night view along the banks. of the Pujang River without reservation. Iconic buildings like the Oriental Pearl Tower and Jin Mao Tower sparkled under the lights. Lina was captivated by the beautiful scenery before her and couldn’t help but walk to the window, exclaiming, wow, this view is just too beautiful. The whole of Russia can’t compare to this. Wang Chin smiled as he walked to Karina’s side, gently wrapping his arms around her waist, resting his chin affectionately on her shoulder. Nothing is more beautiful than you. You just know how to flatter, it’s not as exaggerated as you say. Karina said, her cheeks slightly flushed as she gently poked Wang Chen’s chest. Karina turned around, wrapping her arms around Wang Chen’s neck, her eyes filled with love, do you really like me? Of course. Wang Chen lowered his head slightly, gently touching Karina’s nose with his, their, breaths mingling. Karina’s heart raced suddenly, her cheeks growing even warmer. Wang Chen’s hands slowly moved from her waist upwards, tenderly, caressing her cheek, his thumb gently stroking her flushed face. The kiss lasted for a long time, until both of them were slightly breathless, before slowly parting. I love you too, Karina said, her lips curling into a sweet smile as she whispered. Wang Chen embraced her tightly once. More, feeling their heartbeats gradually synchronize. The air in the room became thick with intimacy. The next day, at 9 in the morning, sunlight filtered through the thin curtains casting mottled shadows on the floor. Wang Chen slowly woke up, feeling the soft warmth in his arms. He looked down. Karina was like a lazy little cat, tightly hugging him, her hair messily scattered across his arm. Wang Chen couldn’t help but. Smile, gently brushing aside the stray hair from her face, saying, Baby, it’s time to get up. Don’t, let me sleep a little longer. Karina. Mumbled drowsily, not only refusing to let go but instead hugging him tighter. Her tone was soft and spoiled, as she nestled closer into Wang. Chen’s embrace, seeking a more comfortable position. The warm breath through her pajamas made Wang Chen’s heart flutter. He opened his true vision. To look at her. Name, Karina Jinxian slash Lu Meng Yan, age, 20, height, 181 centimeters, charm, 96, physique, 90, affection, 92, skills, language, proficiency, advanced dance, bartending, firearm proficiency. Wang Chen looked at the data presented by his true vision, and a wave of murmurs rose in his heart. With her height, Karina would definitely be the center of attention on the street. Even in high heels, she was almost as tall as Wang Chen. Yet, this tall figure, combined with her delicate, spoiled demeanor. created a stark contrast that nearly overwhelmed him last night. If you don’t get up for breakfast, it will be gone. I heard the hotel breakfast is super lavish, with crepes and hot cocoa, Wang Chen said with a helpless smile. Upon hearing this, Karina slightly opened her eyes and mumbled, really? They have crepes? All right then, I’ll reluctantly get up. After they finished washing up, they headed to the hotel restaurant. The restaurant wasn’t too crowded, and soft music flowed through the air. Wangchen pulled out a chair for Karina and only after she sat down did he take a seat across from her. Before long, the waiter brought their ordered meals. On the exquisite plate, golden crepes were drizzled with sweet maple syrup adorned with fresh fruits. Beside it was a steaming cup of hot cocoa topped with a thick layer of cream. Karina eagerly picked up her fork, took a bite of the crate and squinted. Her eyes in satisfaction, mmm so delicious, Wangchen, you should try it too. Wangchen watched her enjoy her meal and smiled, is it really that good? You’ll know when you try it. After finishing breakfast, Wang Chen checked the time and said to Karina, it’s about time. I’ll take you back to school, otherwise, your roommates will nag you. Alright, but you have to come find me earlier next time. You won’t. Forget me, right? Karina nodded reluctantly. Hearing her words, Wang Chen gently scratched her nose, his eyes filled with affection as he said, how? Could I forget? Even if I forget myself, I won’t forget you, my little glutton. They left the hotel together. Wang Chen drove his Lamborghini, taking Karina towards Fudan University. Along the way, Karina held Wang Chan’s hand tightly, occasionally glancing out the window. Soon, they arrived at the girls’ dormitory at Fudan University. Wang Chan parked the car, got out, and opened the door for Karina, gently hugging her. We’re here. Go back and rest well. Call me anytime if you need anything. Got it, you take care on the road too. Karina stood on her tiptoes and kissed Wang Chan on the cheek. Just as she turned to leave, wait. Wang Chan suddenly called out to her. He took out his phone, quickly. operated it a few times, and then said, I transferred 300,000 to you. Buy whatever you want, don’t hold back. Ding. The system. Detected that the host spent 300,000, double cashback of 600,000. Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning 30. System points. Karina looked at him in surprise, her eyes filled with emotion, why did you transfer me so much money? I don’t even know how to. Spend it. Wangchen smiled and patted her head, you’re my woman, just think of it as playing with money. Buy whatever you like, and if it’s not. Enough, just tell me. Karina nodded vigorously, thank you, Wang Chan, you’re so nice, oh asterisk 3-0 after saying that, she gave Wang Chan a sweet kiss before turning to walk into the dormitory building. Wang Chan watched her silhouette, a gentle smile playing on his lips. It wasn’t until she completely disappeared from view that he turned and returned to the car. Wang Chan settled into the driver’s seat of the Lamborghini Huracan. He pressed the start button. Instantly, a deep and powerful engine roar erupted, like a beast awakened from slumber. It drew the attention of passing students who turned to look. Wangchen skillfully shifted gears, released the brake, and slowly drove out of the campus. As he cruised along the city streets, the unique shape and robust power of the Huracan attracted many gazes. Passing an intersection, the owner of a regular sedan rolled down his window. With a face full of envy, he looked at Wangchen’s car and muttered, this Huracan is really cool. Wangchen merely smiled slightly. Silently, he rolled down his window. In the congested area, Wangchen switched to comfort mode. Despite the heavy traffic, he was able to weave effortlessly through the cars thanks to the precise steering and excellent handling. Bang! At that moment, a delivery rider’s electric bike accidentally brushed against the Huracan side mirror, leaving the rider pale with fright. He quickly got off and hurriedly apologized, big brother, I’m so sorry. I, I was in a rush to deliver, didn’t pay attention. How much do you think I owe you? The rider was filled with despair, fully aware that the repair costs for this luxury car could be an unbearable sum for him. The thought that his heart earned. Income from deliveries might go to waste made his legs feel weak. Wang Chen glanced at the rearview mirror and noticed only a slight scratch, then waved his hand dismissively, it’s fine, just be more careful next time. Hurry and get back to your deliveries. Really? Thank you so much. You’re such a good person, no wonder you’re so wealthy. The rider’s eyes sparkled with surprise and gratitude, and the tension in his body relaxed. Instantly, after repeatedly thanking Wang Chen, he hurriedly hopped back on his electric bike and left. To Wang Chen, it was merely a minor. scratch, easy to fix, and there was no need to make things difficult for someone who was struggling to make a living. With the system at his disposal, he had plenty of money, such trivial matters were hardly worth worrying about. In his previous life, Wang Chen had also worked as a delivery writer. Although it wasn’t for long, he could empathize with the hardships of their lives. Battling through wind and rain, taking one order after another, all just to earn a little more to make ends meet. There was no need to impose immense pressure on him over such a small incident. Finally, the road cleared up. Wang Chan switched the car to sport mode. With a press of the accelerator, a strong push against his back surged through him. He felt as if he were glued to the seat. The vehicles beside him quickly fell behind and the scenery along the roadside rushed backward. This made Wang Chan temporarily forget the earlier incident, immersing himself fully in the exhilarating speed brought by the Lamborghini Huracan. The next day, sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the central building, spilling into Wang Chan’s office. He walked in to find Long Lily waiting for him. dressed in a sharp business outfit her exquisite makeup couldn’t hide the joy in her eyes upon seeing wang chen as soon as he entered wang chen walked straight to long lily opened his arms and gently embraced her he placed a kiss on her forehead and said softly lily did you miss me long lily’s cheeks flushed slightly as she wrapped her arms around wang chen’s waist in replied softly i missed you i was looking forward to you coming all morning let me update you on the company’s progress we’ve made great strides in our recruitment efforts and have already hired over a hundred employees Take a look at these documents. After their tender moment, Long Lily picked up a stack of files from the desk, her expression serious. She handed the documents to Wang Chen. He took the files and began to read through them carefully, nodding occasionally. After finishing, he looked up, a satisfied smile on his face, and said, OK, well, done. You’ve managed the recruitment process very well. Receiving Wang Chen’s affirmation, a glimmer of joy flashed in Long Lily’s eyes, Wang Chen continued, Please notify the management team to come to the conference room for a meeting. Long Lily acknowledged and turned to inform the others. Before Long, the conference room of Whale Capital was filled with management personnel. General Manager Chen Yu sat at the front, followed by Marketing Director Zhang Hui, Investment Manager Li Kai, Analyst Sun Yuen, and Human Resources Director Lin Xia, the middle and lower. Management took their seats in order. Wang Chan walked into the conference room. Hello, boss, everyone stood up in unison. Wang Chan raised his hand to signal everyone to sit down while he took his place at the head of the table. The assistants stood by the side. Wang Chen looked around at the management personnel in the conference room. Clearing his throat, he began, everyone, whale capital has developed to this point. And it is time to clarify the direction for the next stage of development. Our company’s focus will be on the two major fields of live streaming, influencers and film entertainment. The live streaming industry is currently booming and the influencer economy has limitless potential. The film entertainment market has always been a big cake with vast development space. We need to vigorously explore both of these businesses. I would like to first understand what achievements everyone has made recently in their respective responsibilities. General Manager Chen, please report on the overall situation. Wang Chen leaned slightly forward, resting his hands on the table. General Manager Chen Yu straightened up, adjusted his glasses, and began to report, Mr. Wang, we have already made some progress in both of these directions. In the film entertainment sector, our team has been in contact with several well-known film and television companies in the industry. Companies like Hawaii and Light Media have expressed a certain willingness to cooperate with us. They recognize our company’s financial strength and are currently discussing specific cooperation projects and details. However, no final cooperation plan has been determined yet. Shen Yu paused, took a sip of water, and continued. In terms of live streaming platforms, we are also actively communicating with major platforms. Currently, only our shareholder Wang. Seatsong’s Panda Live has given a clear response, while other platforms, such as Douyu and Huya, are still under ongoing follow-up. They are currently evaluating the cooperation proposals we have put forward. After listening, Wang Chen nodded slightly and, after a moment of thought, said, Overall, everyone has made some progress in their work, which is commendable. We need to accelerate cooperation with well-known film and television companies to finalize the cooperation projects as soon as possible. As for the cooperation with live streaming platforms, we need to Finalize the cooperation details with Panda Live quickly to get this partnership off the ground and serve as a demonstration. We cannot relax our follow-up with other platforms either. If anyone encounters any problems or difficulties in their subsequent work, please raise them in a timely manner. Wang Chen leaned back in his chair, took a deep breath, and slowly said, everyone must understand that we at Whale Capital are newcomers. In the investment field, to quickly establish a foothold, we must be professional, efficient, and sincere. What do we have? Everyone looked. at each other, puzzled. We have money. Wang Chen continued. Having money is our greatest confidence. Does everyone have the confidence to, make our company stand out in the live streaming influencer and film entertainment industries within six months? Yes, everyone shouted in. You know Zen. The sound echoed throughout the conference room. Alright, the meeting is dismissed. Wang Chen waved his hand. Then, he returned to his office. Assistant Li Meng walked in. Do you have anything else? Wang Chen asked. Mr. Wang, actually, it’s like this. I’m really sorry about the last incident with Kong Jin Yuan. My dad has been wanting me to invite you over for dinner since he found out. He really wants to meet you and thank you in person, Li Meng said, slightly lowering her head, her hands unconsciously tugging at the hem of her clothes, her face showing a hint of nervousness and hesitation. Wang Chen was slightly taken aback, then smiled gently and waved his hand, saying, don’t take it to heart. That matter has nothing to do with you. Kang Jin-yuan’s arrogance is his own problem, it’s all in the past now, so you don’t need to feel guilty. Li Meng bit her lip, her eyes filled with sincerity, but my dad and I both feel really bad about it, and we just want to express our feelings. A bit. I understand your intentions, but the company has been really busy lately. You’ve seen it, the cooperation with the live streaming platform and the film company is at a critical stage, and I really can’t spare the time. Once this busy period is over, I will definitely visit. Your father, Wang Chen said helplessly. He was well aware of what Li Meng’s father was planning. saying it was a thank you might have other calculations behind it. He just didn’t know if it was for him or for the Wang family behind him, or perhaps both. Li Meng listened, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes, but she quickly adjusted and nodded, saying, alright, Mr. Wang, please be sure to let me know when you have time. After saying that, Li Meng turned and walked out of the office. Wang Chin didn’t pay much attention to Li Meng’s little emotions and continued to handle his work. A few days later, 6 o’clock in the afternoon. A private tea house in the magic city. The decor was antique, with wooden tables and chairs arranged neatly, and a faint aroma of tea filled the air. As soon as Wang Chen stepped into the private room, he saw Qin, Fen, the chubby Li Xiang, and Shen Su already seated. A set of exquisite tea utensils was laid out on the table, and the steaming tea aroma wafted up. Finally, you made it. The chubby one was sharp-eyed and quickly stood up to wave. Wang Chen smiled as he walked over, and after taking his seat, he said, there was a bit of traffic on the way, sorry for being late. Xinfen skillfully fiddled with the tea set while teasing. You still know to feel sorry? The other day when you dealt with Kong Jin Yuan, it spread like wildfire in our rich second generation circle in the magic city, and we were all envious. Yeah, you’re amazing. I’ve never liked him, but I just thought about it. When it really comes to me, I wouldn’t have the guts, Qin Su chimed in. Wang Qin smiled helplessly and waved his hand, saying, what’s there to be envious of? Kong Jin Yuan was too much, I just couldn’t stand his arrogance and taught him a lesson. With that lesson, you’ve become a hot topic in our circle. So, many people admire you to the core. The chubby Lixion leaned in, his face full of envy. Wang Chen picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and slowly said, Everyone, please don’t flatter me. It’s just that he provoked me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t bother with him. By the way, where’s old? Wang? Why didn’t he come? Qin Fen shrugged and said he’s been busy dealing with company matters, overwhelmed with work, and couldn’t make it. He… Also asked me to tell you that once he’s done with this busy period, he definitely wants to get together with you. Alright, when he has time, we’ll all gather together, Wang Chen nodded and said. By the way, when does this luxury auction start? Xinfen put down his teacup and replied. It starts at 8 in the evening, we still have plenty of time. Then let’s have a meal here at the tea house before we go. I’ve heard. The dishes here are quite exquisite, the chubby one suggested. Everyone agreed. Before long, a series of exquisite dishes were served at the table. There were longjing shrimp, plated like a work of art, with tender shrimp adorned with fresh green longjing tea leaves, exuding a refreshing tea aroma. There was also the slowly braised donpa pork, bright red in color, rich yet not greasy, melting in the mouth. As everyone savored the delicious food, they chatted casually, discussing the latest popular sports car models and gossip from the entertainment industry. They talked and laughed, and before they knew it, time quietly slipped away. It was almost time to head to the auction. We should get going, we can’t. Be late, Genefeng glanced at his watch, stood up, and went to settle the bill, the crowd responded enthusiastically and, after standing up, walked out of the tea house. Genefeng walked towards his one-of-a-kind glass blue Rolls-Royce Phantom, the car’s body radiating a unique sheen in. The afterglow. With its temple-like grille and brand new full LED light assembly, it exuded luxury. He opened the car door, sat in the driver’s seat, and shouted to the crowd, Brothers, keep up, don’t fall behind. The chubby Li Xiang squeezed into his flashy red Ferrari. Shan Su headed. towards his Porsche 911. Wang Chen also quickly walked to his Lamborghini Aventador. Once inside the car, they started the engines. The D. rumble instantly filled the air. Along the way, Xinfeng’s Rolls-Royce Phantom led the way at the front. The chubby guy’s Ferrari and Chen Su’s. Porsche closely followed behind. Wang Chen drove the Lamborghini at the rear. The vehicles wove through the bustling streets of the Magic City, drawing the attention of passers-by. Gasps of surprise echoed around them. Soon, they arrived at the Hilton Hotel at Hangzhou, Magic City. In the square in front of the hotel, luxury cars gathered and uniformed valets busily moved about, directing the vehicles for parking. As Wang Chen got out of the car, he overheard a nearby waiter whispering, Look, isn’t that Qin Fen’s glass blue Rolls Royce? Today is truly an eye-opener. Isn’t it? There’s even a Lamborghini Aventador here. Qin Fen locked the car and turned to everyone, saying, Let’s go inside and see what treasures we can find today. Wang Chen adjusted his clothes and followed the crowd into the hotel. As soon as they stepped into the hotel lobby, A luxurious atmosphere enveloped them. The floor was laid with polished marble, reflecting the figures of the people. On either side of the corridor leading to the exhibition hall, exquisite artworks were displayed. Each piece was worth a fortune. In the corridor, they encountered a few second-generation rich kids who had also come to attend the auction. One young man with dyed blonde hair greeted them with a smile, Hey, old. Sheen, long time no see. I heard you recently got your hands on a limited-edition sports car? Sheen Phun responded with a smile, Just a little something. to play with. What about you guys? What are you planning to bid on today? Another bespectacled rich kid adjusted his glasses and said, I’m quite interested in that authentic piece by Zhang Daqian, but the competition will definitely be fierce. At this point, the blonde turned his. Gazed to Wang Chen, a curious smile on his face, and said, Old Jin, why don’t you introduce this new friend? Jin Fen laughed and put his arm around Wang Chen’s shoulder, saying, This is Wang Chen, the one you’ve been hearing about in the circle these past few days, the one who dealt with Kong Jin Yuwen. Ah, so it’s you. The blonde’s eyes widened in surprise as he looked Wang Chen up and down, I’ve heard so much about you. And seeing you today, you truly are extraordinary. I’m Yang Chang, nice to meet you, let’s be friends. The blonde, Yang Chang, extended his hand enthusiastically, and Wang Chen smiled back, shaking his hand in response, hello, it’s just a name, nothing to mention. The bespectacled. Guy quickly stepped forward, wearing a friendly smile, and said, I’m Jiayu, I’ve heard about you before and always wanted to meet you, and today, I finally get my wish. Wang Qin shook hands with Zhao Yu and exchanged a few pleasantries. At that moment, the chubby Li Xiang joked from the side, when the auction starts, don’t just chat and forget the main event. Yang Chang slapped his forehead, realizing, look at my memory. I almost forgot the main thing. As they chatted, they slowly moved with the crowd towards the auction exhibition hall. Along the way, more people greeted Qin Fun and Yang Chang. Wang Qin also got to know quite a few new faces. Entering the exhibition hall, most of the Spacious area was already filled with people and a magnificent crystal chandelier hung high, illuminating the entire hall brightly. The staff were methodically arranging the auction items for the night. Wang Chen and the others found a spot to sit down, waiting for the auction to begin. As time ticked away, the people who had been quietly conversing gradually fell silent, their gazes turning towards the stage. A confident woman, in a fitted black suit, exuding elegance, stepped onto the auction platform. Bang!

The atmosphere on site reached a fever pitch, everyone was shocked by the continuously rising price. Although it was. A Koenigsegg venom, limited globally, it shouldn’t be this expensive. Over a hundred million, far too much. The auctioneer’s forehead glistened with beads of sweat, her voice trembling slightly with excitement, 110 million once, 110 million twice.

As the auction hammer came down heavily, the female auctioneer let out a sigh of relief, a satisfied smile on her face. She hadn’t expected this Koenigsegg venom to fetch such a high price. 150 million. That’s quite a substantial commission. The staff quickly removed the screen displaying the supercar. Immediately, the spotlight focused on the stage, and a beautiful black velvet tray was slowly pushed out. Lying quietly on it was an emerald necklace, radiating a ghostly green blow.

But in the end, the desire for this artistic treasure prevailed and he gritted his teeth, continuing to shout, 610 million. Wang Chen glanced at him and raised his paddle again, saying, 650 million.

At this shout, the entire room fell silent. Everyone was stunned into speechlessness by this price. The financial tycoon sighed deeply and slowly lowered his paddle. He knew that with a price of 900 million he could no longer compete. The tall, thin old man looked at Wang Chen, his eyes filled with complex emotions, a bit unwilling. He hesitated for a long time but ultimately put down his paddle. Just when everyone thought the dust had settled, a young voice suddenly came from the back row, 930 million. Everyone turned around to see a young man standing up. His eyes held a hint of disdain, seemingly unimpressed by the astronomical price of 900 million. Interesting, Wang Chen turned to glance at him, a slight smile on his lips. There were countless hidden wealthy individuals in Hua Gua, so. It was not surprising to see a rich second generation emerge. 950 million. The young man, hearing Wang Chen’s bid, flashed a moment of anger. On his face.

Everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the two bidders, as if witnessing a historical showdown. Beads of sweat appeared on the young man’s forehead. This price had far exceeded his original budget, but he was unwilling to lose to Wang Chen just like that. Under everyone’s gaze, he gritted his teeth and, with a trembling voice, shouted, 1 .11 billion. After shouting, he regretted it. He clenched his fists, nervously watching Wang Chen, hoping he would continue to bid. Wang Chen’s gaze lingered on the young man for a moment, then he chuckled lightly and said, 1.2 billion. The young man’s face turned pale, his legs slightly weakened, almost unable to stand. He secretly rejoiced that Wang Chen accepted his price. Just when everyone thought Wang Chen was about to. successfully bid for this manuscript, a crisp voice came from the corner of the auction hall, 1.25 billion. Giggling, I will gladly accept. This painting, a middle-aged lady in a luxurious gown stood up. Wang Chen raised his paddle again, his voice firm, 1.38 billion. The corners of the middle-aged lady’s mouth lifted slightly, revealing a hint of a confident smile. Without any hesitation, she immediately raised her. Paddle, 1.4 billion. 1.5 billion. Wang Chen bid again. This offer sent the entire room into a frenzy, with people marveling at Wang Chen’s financial power and boldness. The middle-aged lady fell silent for a moment, looking at Wang Chen. Ultimately, she lowered her paddle, smiling, and nodding at Wang Chen, conceding defeat. The auctioneer’s voice trembled with excitement, 1.5 billion first time, 1.5 billion second time, 1.5 billion third time. With a heavy thud of the auction hammer, a loud bang signaled the end of tonight’s bidding. Sold. Congratulations to this gentleman for winning Van Gogh’s landscape painting fields near all’s. Let’s congratulate this gentleman. Wang Chen stood up and slightly nodded to the people around him. As the auction concluded, the crowd began to disperse. Wang Chen slowly walked towards the backstage. Upon entering, staff from the auction company greeted him with beaming smiles, leading him to an elegantly decorated VIP room. The soft lighting illuminated a large mahogany table in the center, adorned with exquisite tea sets and some documents. Young Master Wang Congratulations on acquiring this unparalleled treasure. A middle-aged man in a sharpsuit and tie approached quickly, extending his hand. Enthusiastically, I am Li Ming, the head of this auction. I will assist you in completing the settlement procedures. Wang Chen politely shook his hand, smiling in response, Thank you, Mr. Li. Li Ming invited Wang Chen to sit down, then picked up a document, explaining in detail, Mr. Wang, according to our auction process, you need to sign this transaction confirmation, confirming that you purchased these treasures for 2.18 billion. Wang Chen took the document and read it carefully, signing his name in the designated spot after confirming its accuracy. All right, the transaction confirmation has been signed. Next is the payment stage, Li Ming continued, how would you like to pay? By card. Wang Chen replied casually. Oh, by the way, how is the auction commission calculated? Wang Chen suddenly remembered to ask. Our commission rate is 10%. Of the transaction amount, Li Ming explained, so, you will need to pay 218 million in commission. This 218 million must be paid along with the transaction amount. Wang Chin frowned slightly but quickly regained his composure. After all, he had already familiarized himself with the auction commission rules before participating in the bidding. All right. Wang Chin took out his bank card and handed it to manager Li Li. Ming took the card and stood up, saying, Mr. Wang, please wait a moment, I will arrange for someone to bring the card reader. In a short while, a staff member carefully entered the VIP room holding a large card reader. Mr. Wang, please enter your password here. The total is 2.398 billion, of which 2.18 billion is the transaction amount, and 218 million is the commission. Li Ming skillfully operated the machine, entering the various amounts, then pushed the card reader in front of Wang Chen. Wang Chen nodded slightly, calmly entering his password. At the moment, he pressed the confirm button, the card reader emitted a beep sound, and the entire VIP room fell silent, with staff holding their breath, their eyes fixed on the card reader. A few seconds later, the card reader’s screen displayed the message, transaction processing, please wait. This brief wait felt incredibly long. Finally, the card reader beeped, breaking the silence. The screen displayed a successful transaction prompt. Ding! The system detected that the host spent $2.398 billion with a double cashback of $4.796 billion. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 239,800 system points. Manager Li let out a Long breath, a relieved smile spreading across his face.

Wang Chen smiled and said, all right, the payment is complete, so please arrange the delivery as soon as possible. Rest assured, Mr. Wang, we will handle the delivery procedures at the fastest speed, Li Ming quickly responded. Then, Li Ming communicated the specific details of the delivery with Wang Chen, including the time, location, and receiving personnel. After confirming everything was correct, Wang Chen stood up to leave. Li Ming warmly escorted him all the way to the door. Of the VIP room, not forgetting to promise again, young master Wang, at 10am 3 days from now, we will be at the designated China Resources seed you number 1 in Luji Azui. And we will confirm with you an hour in advance. Wang Chen nodded in thanks and turned to step outside. As soon as Wang Chen stepped out of the VIP room, he saw Qin Fun, the chubby guy, and Shen Su waiting not far away. Over 2 billion, and you didn’t even blink. I’m starting to suspect you stole your dad’s money, Xinfeng was the first to approach, giving Wang Chen a hearty pat on the shoulder, his eyes filled with admiration. The chubby guy Li Xiang also came over, his round face brimming with excitement. With this operation, you’ve turned tonight’s auction into your personal showcase. In this circle from now on, who wouldn’t know the name Wang Chen? Chen Su laughed and shook his head, I didn’t expect you to elevate the scene tonight by several levels, this kind of spending is incredible. Just lucky, couldn’t resist when I saw something. I liked, Wang Chen waved his hand with a smile. Although his tone was relaxed, the joy in his eyes was hard to hide, tonight’s experience had indeed been rewarding. The group chatted for a few more moments. It was getting late, and they headed towards the parking lot. After saying their goodbyes, Wang Chen arrived at his cool Lamborghini. Aventador. He got into the car and fastened his seatbelt. With the roar of the engine, he pressed the accelerator and drove out of the parking lot. The night in the magical. City was dazzling with lights. Soon, Wang Chen arrived at China Resources City number one in Lugiazui. He parked the car and took the exclusive elevator straight to the top floor’s sky palace. Pushing open the door, a spacious and bright living room came into view, and through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows he could overlook the magnificent night view of the Huangpu River. Wang Chen walked into the living room, heading straight to the window, gazing at the lights outside. He turned towards the wine. Cabinet took out a bottle of aged red wine and poured himself a glass. Wang Chen gently swirled the wine in the glass, the red liquid spinning and releasing an enticing aroma. He took a sip, feeling the slight intoxication brought on by the alcohol.

Instantly, a dazzling golden light erupted from the system screen before him, the light flickered incessantly, and an indescribable mysterious aura spread out, appearing solemn and vast. As the light dimmed, a quaint and enigmatic roulette wheel appeared before him, spinning. Continuously.

Apollo Evo came at just the right time, my last car was just scrapped a few days ago, and I was still thinking about finding time to pick another one. Now, the system has arranged it directly for me, it really understands me. Wang Chen’s gaze skipped over the big eater and landed on the time management master, this entry is simply a divine skill. Excitement sparkled in Wang Chen’s eyes. The professional knowledge that others take months to master, he might grasp in just a few weeks. Even in leisure and entertainment, he could arrange his time reasonably. After enjoying the speed and thrill brought by the top sports car, he could switch to another supercar. Perhaps he could even find time to savor a cup of rich coffee and read a good book. Of course, this book is not that book. Wang Chen placed the wine glass in his hand on the coffee table beside him. He walked out of the living room and took the elevator downstairs. He arrived at the three-bedroom apartment where Long Lily lived. As soon as he opened the door, a warm atmosphere rushed towards him. Long Lily’s residence was arranged warmly and exquisitely, with European-style furniture placed just right. And every detail showcased her unique taste. In the living room, a crystal chandelier cast a soft light, illuminating the entire space brightly, several pieces of artwork, hung on the walls, complementing the bookshelves filled with various books and decorations. Lily? Wangchen called out loudly, but the living room was empty, with no response. He frowned slightly, scanning the room with his gaze. Suddenly, a faint sound of running water came from the direction of the bathroom. Wangchen smiled knowingly. He tiptoed toward the bathroom. Before he got close, a light scent of roses filled the air, the fragrance of Long Lily’s favorite bubble bath. Wangchen gently pushed the bathroom door, it was unlocked and slowly opened. Amidst the mist, Long Lily was comfortably soaking in the bathtub. The tub was filled with pure white bubbles, revealing only her fair shoulders and delicate collarbone. Her damp long hair was casually draped to one side, a few strands sticking to her cheek, adding to her allure. Ah, Long. Lily heard the noise, opened her eyes wide, and saw Wang Chen. She was startled at first, then her cheeks quickly flushed with a rosy hue as she playfully scolded, why did? You just come in like that. After saying this, she instinctively tried to push the bubbles around her, attempting to cover herself more securely. Wang Chen, however, wore a mischievous smile and strode over, what, am I not welcome? As he spoke, he began to unbutton his shirt. What, what are you doing? Long Lily’s voice carried a hint of shyness and playful reproach. Of course, I’m here to wash together. Wang Chen winked, swiftly shedding his clothes and stepping into the bathtub. The tub was large. Enough for two to enjoy this delightful time together. Once seated, Wang Chen pulled Long Lily into his arms, causing her to let out a soft gasp. How was the auction? Today? Long Lily leaned against Wang Chen, her fingers idly tracing circles on the water’s surface as she softly asked. It was okay, Wang Chen replied with a smile. Okay? Don’t keep me in suspense, tell me all about it. Long Lily playfully punched Wang Chen’s chest, lifting her head, her big watery eyes filled with anticipation. Wang Chen’s lips curled into a slight smile, carrying a hint of mystery, don’t rush, besides the auction, I have a surprise for you. He released his hold on Long Lily and reached, into the pocket of his clothes by the edge of the bathtub, pulling out a delicate little box. Long Lily curiously stared at the box, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. What is this? Wang Chen opened the box. A Van Cleefman Arpels high-end jewelry necklace lay quietly inside. The dazzling diamonds and gemstones complemented each other, radiating enchanting brilliance under the bathroom lights. The necklace’s design was unique. Each gemstone was cut and set perfectly. Surrounding the central diamond were a circle of smaller diamonds, like stars encircling the moon, with colorful gemstones adding a touch of liveliness and luxury. Wow, so beautiful. Long Lily couldn’t help but exclaim, her eyes filled with surprise and emotion, is this for me? Of course, how could my woman not have a necklace worthy of her? Wang Chen smiled as he picked up the necklace and personally placed it around Long Lily’s neck. The necklace fit her neck perfectly, as if it were custom-made for her, accentuating her skin’s snow-white complexion and radiating an air of noble elegance. I love it so much, thank you, husband. Long Lily caressed the necklace, her face beaming with a happy smile. Long Lily was truly touched. She hadn’t expected Wang Chen to give her such an expensive piece of jewelry. It was known that a Van Cleef & Arpels high-end jewelry necklace could cost tens of millions. And for it to be at an auction, this necklace must be worth at least a few million. Tears welled up in Long Lily’s eyes. Ding! Long Lily’s favorability. Has reached maximum value. Wang Chen smiled knowingly. She was the second among his women to reach maximum favorability. It was worth giving her this necklace. So, how? Will you thank me? Long Lily’s cheeks flushed slightly, her eyes sparkling with mischief. She gently bit her lower lip. Then, she wrapped her arms around Wang Chen’s neck. Pressing her body closer, her warm breath brushing against his ear. So how do you want me to thank you? A wicked smile crept onto Wang Chen’s lips as he gently stroked Long. Lily’s hair and whispered, of course, something more tangible. I knew you had ulterior motives, Long Lily giggled, playfully pushing Wang Chen away, pretending to be angry. But the love in her eyes was impossible to hide. In the warm bathtub, with steam rising and soft lighting, the two were immersed in this romantic atmosphere. Wang Chen’s hand gently caressed Long Lily’s hair. Long Lily occasionally lifted her head to catch her breath. Their gazes locked deeply, filled with affection. The Surrounding Water rippled gently, the scent of roses mingling with the aroma of wine, adding a touch of ambiguity to this enchanting scene. The next day, Wang Chen walked out of Long Lily’s bedroom and headed to the garage. The red Ferrari LaFerrari was quietly parked there. Wang Chen got into the car and started the engine. With a deep, powerful roar, the car shot out of the underground garage like an arrow. Before Long, the car arrived at Pudong International Airport. Wang Chen parked in the designated spot and walked towards the departure hall. His eyes quickly scanned the crowd, soon catching sight of Xin Xinya. She was dressed in a flight attendant uniform, tall and graceful, dragging her suitcase while looking around. Xinya. Wang Chen waved his hand and called out loudly. Hearing his voice, Xin Xinya turned to him, her face breaking into a radiant smile as she hurried towards him, dragging her suitcase. You finally made it. I couldn’t wait to see you. She dove into Wang Chen’s arms, playfully saying, Wang. Chen held her tightly and kissed her lightly on the top of her head, sorry to keep you waiting, there was a bit of traffic. He took the suitcase from her and held her hand. As they walked towards the parking lot, arriving next to the LaFerrari, Xinxingya gasped in awe at the cool car, wow, is this your new car? It’s so cool. Wang Chen smiled and opened the car door for her, do you like it? I’ll take you for a ride in the future. I love it. Xinxingya sat in the passenger seat, excitedly exploring every corner. Wang Chen started the car and drove towards Lujiazui. Soon, they parked in the underground parking lot of the Riverside Triumph Gate. Wang Chen took Xinxingya. to the elevator and arrived in front of a three-bedroom apartment. He entered the password to unlock the door, revealing a bright and spacious interior, decorated in a simple yet elegant style. The living room featured a set of branded leather sofas facing a large LCD TV. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the bustling night view of Lu Jiazui was fully visible, with skyscrapers standing tall and densely packed. Is this your new house? Xin Xinya looked at Wang Chen with some confusion. Wang Chen handed her the keys and gently said, From now on, this will be your home. Do you like it? Xinxingya’s eyes instantly turned red, tears shimmering as she spoke with disbelief and surprise, really? Is this really for me? Wangchen gently pulled her into his embrace, resting his chin on the top of her head, softly saying, of course it’s real. You deserve the best. I really love it, thank you, husband, but this is too precious. Xinxingya leaned against Wangchen, feeling his warm embrace, her heart filled with emotion, her voice trembling slightly. Wangchen released her, cupping her face in his hands, looking into her eyes seriously, as long as you’re happy, it’s all. Worth it. Whenever your flights come to the Magic City, you can stay here. It’s convenient for both work and leisure. And I hope you can have a cozy little nest that belongs entirely to you. Xinxingya broke into a smile, standing on her tiptoes to kiss Wangchen on the cheek. Then she wandered around the room, occasionally touching the soft leather of the sofa and running to the window to gaze at the view outside, Xinxingya said excitedly, the sofa is so comfortable and the view outside the window is simply amazing. From now on, I can just sit here and stare at the night view every evening. Wang Chen followed her, watching her leap with joy, his eyes filled with affection as he smiled and said, I’m glad you like it. If you don’t like the furniture, we can change it. No need to change anything, everything is perfect. I feel like I’m dreaming, Xinxingya said as she walked over to Wang Chen and hugged him tightly again, her voice filled with happiness. Wang Chen gently patted her back, teasing, then, pinch yourself and see if it’s a dream. Xinxingya really did pinch her arm lightly, letting out a soft gasp from the pain, then giggled and said, it’s not a dream. This is real, I’m so happy. V. V. Xinxing’s cheeks flushed, her eyes sparkling as she took Wang Chen’s hand and stepped back toward the bedroom. The light in the bedroom poured down, casting overlapping shadows of the two on the floor. Standing in the center of the bedroom, her fingers slowly lifted, the delicate tips gently touching the buttons on the flight attendant uniform. With her movements, the buttons were undone one by one. The collar of the uniform slightly open, revealing skin as white as snow underneath, contrasting sharply with the flight attendant uniform, adding a touch of temptation. She intentionally tilted her body slightly, her gaze carrying a hint. Of shyness and boldness, a sight that tugged at Wang Chen’s heart. Immediately after, her hand slowly slid toward the hem of her skirt, gradually lifting it, revealing her. Long, beautiful legs wrapped in grey stockings. The soft texture of the stockings clung tightly to her skin, perfectly outlining the curves of her legs. Xinxingya gently. Bit her lower lip, looking at Wang Chen with sultry eyes. Wang Chen’s breath quickened, his chest rising and falling violently as he stepped forward and tightly wrapped. His arms around her waist. Darling, I really love you, Xinxingya said, tilting her head back, fully exposing the graceful line of her neck. Her hands wrapped around Wang Chen’s neck, whispering softly in his ear. These tender words ignited a fire in Wang Chen’s heart, instantly awakening his desire. He scooped her up and gently placed her on the soft bed, following her down. Xinxingya’s hands eagerly roamed over Wang Chen’s body. Her body twisted slightly, the gray stockings rubbing against the sheets, creating a faint sound. Wang Chen’s lips trailed down from her earlobe, a scorching kiss moving downward, gliding over her neck and collarbone, causing Xinxingya to shiver, soft moans escaping her lips. Clothes slipped off one by one and the curtains swayed gently in the breeze. Ambiguous gasps and low murmurs intertwined. In the evening, the afterglow of the sunset streamed through the gaps in the curtains, spilling onto the bed. Wang Chen lay on his side, one hand gently resting on Xinxingya’s waist, watching her sleep. Her hair was messily spread across the pillow, her slightly flushed cheeks still holding onto the remnants of warmth. Wang Chen couldn’t help but. Gently smoothed her hair, placing a soft kiss on her forehead. After a moment, he carefully got up, afraid to wake Xing Xingya. He tiptoed to pick up the scattered clothes. On the floor, putting them on one by one. After getting dressed, he glanced back at Xing Xingya, confirming she was sleeping soundly before turning to leave the bedroom. Gently closing the door behind him. Wang Chen went downstairs and stopped in front of a door, skillfully entering the password. The door slowly opened. In a golden house, how could Wang Chen only hide one beauty? Inside the room, the lights were not fully on. Only a few pink ambient lights emitted a soft and suggestive glow, enveloping the entire space in a tempting pink hue. As soon as Wang Chen stepped into the room, he heard a charming voice behind him, playfully yet alluring, darling, you finally made it. Wang Chen instinctively turned around and saw Chen Mengiao stepping out in a tight-fitting flight attendant uniform, paired with Balenciaga’s black stockings, it perfectly outlined her curvaceous figure. That 171cm tall stature appeared even more graceful under the accent of high heels. Chen Mengiao approached with a swaying gait, her oval face. Adorned with a pair of sparkling big eyes full of allure. She tilted her head slightly, a seductive smile curling at the corners of her mouth. Why did it take you so long? Did Xinxing Ye steal your soul away? She deliberately traced her finger lightly across Wang Chen’s chest, the coolness of her fingertips causing his heart to race. Before Wang Chen could respond, Chen Mengiao leaned in closer, the faint scent of her perfume lingering at Wang Chen’s nose. She extended her tongue to gently lick her lips. Her voice soft and sultry, you know, I’ve been thinking about you all day, you’ve been on my mind. As she spoke, her hand naturally climbed onto Wang Chen’s shoulder, her body pressing tightly against him, her ample bosom intentionally brushing against him. Then, Chen Mengye leaned back slightly, her hands grasping Wang Chen’s tie and giving it a gentle tug, rising on her toes to whisper sweetly in his ear, I even specially wore this uniform for you, do you like it? She straightened up, her gaze boldly, locking onto Wang Chen’s eyes, the heat and desire in her eyes unmistakable. One hand slowly slid down from her neck, gliding over her collarbone, and gradually moving. To the buttons of her uniform, her slender fingers leisurely beginning to unbutton them. One button, two buttons, with each one undone, she threw Wang Chen a tempting glance. Darling, who do you think makes your heart race more, me or Xin Xinya? Wang Chen didn’t respond, his breathing growing more rapid. Chen Mengiao was still so enchanting. Even though he had just finished a previous battle, he felt his blood boiling. He suddenly lifted Chen Mengiao, striding towards the bed and tossing her onto it. Mengiao Giggled, wrapping her arms tightly around Wang Chen’s neck, her legs entwining around his waist. The room once again filled with ambiguous gasps and soft moans, the pink. Light swaying, witnessing this passionate scene. After a bout of intimacy, the two lay embraced on the bed, Chen Mengiao’s cheeks flushed, her skin glistening with. Sweat, her fingers gently tracing circles on Wang Chen’s chest. She softly said, Darling, I really love this apartment you arranged for me, it feels like I’m being cherished. In the palm of your hand. Wang Chen gently stroked her long hair, smiling as he replied, as long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters. Upon hearing this, Chen. Meng Yao pouted slightly, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes, hmm, you were just with Chen Xingya, and now you’re here with me. Who do you really care about more? You both mean a lot to me, don’t be jealous like that. Wang Chen chuckled helplessly, pulling her closer. Chen Meng Yao lifted her head, looking into Wang Chen’s eyes, seriously. Asking, then how will you make it up to me? How about I take you to the mall to buy a bag? Wang Chen suggested. I don’t want that. Chen Mangiao shook her head. Saying, my parents have been urging me to get married, they’re really pushing me. Can you come back with me to meet them? If you don’t want to, then forget it. After saying this, she nervously bit her lower lip, staring intently at Wang Chen, waiting for his answer. Wang Chen was slightly taken aback by Chen Mangiao’s words, a flicker of hesitation crossing his face. But he quickly regained his smile. He gently pinched Chen Mangiao’s nose, saying, I can meet your parents, but I’ve been really busy lately. Once this busy period is over, I’ll definitely go back with you, okay? Hearing this, Chen Mengiao happily replied, then you mustn’t lie to me. My parents are driving. Me crazy, they ask me every time I call when I’ll bring my boyfriend home. Wang Chen embraced Chen Mengiao, gently patting her back to comfort her, how could I lie to you? I really take this matter seriously. First, tell me what hobbies your uncle and aunt have, what they like, so I can prepare gifts in advance. Chen Mengiao, hearing Wang Chen’s agreement, excitedly sat up from the bed, her eyes sparkling. She tightly wrapped her arms around Wang Chen’s neck and gave him a forceful kiss on the cheek. You’re so nice. I knew you wouldn’t let me down. Wang Chen looked at Chen Mengiao’s expression and couldn’t help but feel a complex emotion rise within him. What a silly. Woman. She’s so happy just because he agreed to meet her parents. Chen Mengiao’s cheeks flushed with joy as she leaned in to kiss Wang Chen’s lips, her tongue gently probing, filled with a hint of urgency and desire. Wang Chen was caught off guard by her sudden enthusiasm but soon found himself immersed in it. One hand wrapped around Chen. Mengiao’s waist, pulling her tightly against him while the other hand slowly wandered along her back, feeling her delicate skin. Have you rested well enough to dare tease? Me again? Wang Chen whispered breathlessly in Chen Mengiao’s ear. Chen Mengiao giggled, lightly biting Wang Chen’s earlobe. You promised to meet my parents, I’m so happy. I want to reward you well. As she spoke, her hands began to wander restlessly downward. Wang Chen felt a surge of heat within him, flipping over to pin Chen Mengiao beneath. Him, gazing at her slightly flushed cheeks and dreamy eyes, unable to resist teasing, little greedy cat, are you planning to devour me today? Chen Mengiao rapped. Her arms around Wang Chen’s neck, her legs entwining around his waist, playfully retorting, just you, what can you do about it? Their bodies pressed closely together, where? Their skin touched seemed to spark with electricity. Wang Chen’s kisses traveled from Chen Mengiao’s neck downward, causing her to shiver, soft moans escaping her lips. Mum. Chen Mengiao’s voice was sweet and alluring, darling, I love you. Wang Chen held Chen Mengiao tightly, kissing her passionately. Little chick, why? Are you so full of fighting spirit today? Wang Chen teased with a smile. Chen Mengiao shot him a glance, gripping Wang Chen’s back tightly, isn’t it because of you? Before she could finish her sentence, she was silenced by Wang Chen’s kiss. In that passionate moment, it felt as if the entire world consisted only of the two of them. The moonlight fell softly like a veil on the bed where they embraced. The night in the magical city was brilliantly lit. In the distance, the occasional sound of a riverboat. Horn could be heard, yet it did nothing to break the unique atmosphere in the room. Three days later, a luxurious maybox slowly drove out of the magical city. Inside the car, Wang Chen, Qin Feng, and Wang Sitzong were comfortably seated. Wang Chen, curious, broke the silence first, where are we going? Wang Sitzong and Qin Feng exchanged glances, chuckling, and said in unison, taking you to see the world. Wang Chen’s curiosity was thoroughly peaked. He leaned forward, pressing for more. Information, don’t keep me in suspense, what kind of world? At least give me a hint. Don’t rush, you’ll know when we get there, I guarantee it will leave a deep impression. On you, Xinfen said with a smile, waving his hand. Little Fatty and Shenzhou have things to do abroad, they can’t make it. I won’t take Yao Jinglong since he’s too young. Wang Sitzong leaned back in his seat, crossing his legs in a relaxed manner. He took a sip of the champagne in his hand, looking leisurely. Wang Chen leaned back in his seat, his eyes fixed on the retreating street scenery outside the window. The car was heading towards the suburbs. The place that these two mysterious guys were taking him. 2. Claiming it would broaden his horizons, must be extraordinary. Was it a top-tier private club or some niche yet extremely high-end venue? At that moment, the Maybach smoothly entered the highway, the speed gradually increasing, and the scenery outside became increasingly blurred. The car was quiet for a moment before Wangchen spoke up. This car is really comfortable to sit in, spacious and quiet. I used to think sports cars were cool enough, but now it seems that this kind of luxury business car is the ultimate choice for travel. Now you understand, huh? Sports cars are just for novelty, true enjoyment comes from this kind of vehicle. Besides, considering where we’re going today, driving a sports car would really be inappropriate. Wang Sitzong’s lips curled slightly, carrying a hint of teasing. As soon as he said this, Wang Chin felt even more curious and was about to ask again. Xinfen seemed to see through his thoughts and said, don’t ask anymore, it won’t be interesting if you do, just follow along. And you’ll understand the charm of this place when we get there. Wang Chin could only helplessly pout, patiently waiting. Before he knew it, the Maybach had exited the highway and entered a quiet little path. The trees lining the road were lush, contrasting sharply with the bustling city seen from earlier as if they had entered another world. Wang Chen immediately realized that they must be close to their destination. At the end of the path, a building that exuded understated luxury came into view. The Maybach came to a slow stop. The attendant at the entrance had been waiting for a long time. Dressed in a well-tailored black uniform with spotless white gloves, he skillfully opened the car door for them. The three of them got out of the car. The exterior wall of the clubhouse was built from ancient, dark bricks, covered in lush ivy, and, under the dappled sunlight, it added an air of mystery and elegance. The three entered the clubhouse. A massive carved oak door slowly opened. A wave of melodious classical music wafted in, accompanied by a faint scent of sandalwood, instantly isolating them from the noise of the outside world. The lobby was extremely high, with a crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling. The floor was paved with large slabs of Italian marble. On one side of the lobby was a huge indoor landscape pool. Colorful koi fish swam in the pool, occasionally leaping out of the water and splashing tiny droplets. On the other side was an elegant lounge area, furnished with genuine leather sofas and vintage coffee tables, which held exquisite silver tea sets and a few fashion magazines. In front of them was a wall made up of wine cabinets filled with various expensive drinks. Rare wines from around the world were all available. A middle-aged man in a fitted suit walked over briskly, wearing a warm yet measured smile. Welcome, Young. Master Wang, young Master Qin, and Mr. Wang Chun. Your reputation has spread far and wide in the Magic City these past few days. It is truly an honor to see you here at the clubhouse. The manager slightly bowed, his words full of respect. Wang Seet Song raised an eyebrow, picked up a cocktail from the nearby wine cabinet, took a small sip, and teased, old Chen, your words are as sweet as honey, but this clubhouse really is becoming more and more stylish. Qin Fen also nodded in agreement with a smile, yeah, we brought Wang Chun here to broaden his horizons. You’re overpraising me, I’m just lucky to have stumbled into some excitement. But this clubhouse is indeed the most tasteful place I’ve ever seen, Wang Chan replied with a faint smile. The manager humbly waved his hand and said, Mr. Wang is too modest, your abilities are evident to all. Gentlemen, this way please, the exclusive private room has been prepared for you, and the fine wines and specialty dishes inside will surely satisfy you. With that, the manager led the way toward the private room. The group followed him through a winding corridor. Suddenly, a loud commotion erupted. Wang Chen curiously leaned forward to look. He saw a half-open door on one side of the corridor, revealing a dimly lit space where dozens of people were gathered, excitedly shouting and cheering. Unable to resist, Wang Chen stopped to peek inside. In the center of the scene, two burly men were facing off, air-chested. Each punch landed with a thud, accompanied by gasps and cheers from the audience. The air was thick with the scent of sweat and hormones. It was bloody and violent. This is the underground boxing ring organized by the clubhouse. Wang Sikong explained casually, occasionally, there are some wealthy thrill -seekers who enjoy underground boxing matches, betting and watching. Qin Fen added, these fighters are all tough characters brought in from various places, fighting for high rewards, each match is a life and death struggle. Wang Chen looked at the scene before him, shocked by the fervent and frenzied atmosphere. The manager, seeing them stop, patiently waited, still wearing a polite smile, as if he was already accustomed to such scenes. After a moment, Wang Chen came to his senses, and the group continued forward. Turning a corner, a vast hall appeared before them. Hundreds of graceful women were weaving. Through the space. They were dressed provocatively, with various skin tones, some held wine glasses and whispered to guests, while others swayed their waists on the dance floor. To the music. The lighting was dim, the scent of alcohol wafted through the air, and the entire space was filled with a luxurious and enchanting atmosphere. Wang Chen’s. Eyes widened, rendered speechless by the sight before him. Wang Sikong laughed and patted his shoulder, so, what do you think? You’ve opened your eyes, right? This place. gathers beauties from all over the world, as long as you have the need, it can be satisfied. This is one of the club’s trademarks, how many people are eager to break? They’re next just to come in and see for themselves? Qin Fen teased as well. This, this is too exaggerated, Wang Chen was greatly shocked. The manager smiled humbly. Mr Wang, please don’t mind, this is just one of the special services provided by the club, aimed at offering our distinguished guests an ultimate enjoyment experience. The group passed through the hall and arrived at the edge of an outdoor swimming pool. The water in the pool was crystal clear, shimmering with a faint blue light, the surface sparkling. A group of bikini-clad duties frolicked in the water, like lively mermaids. The water in this pool is transported from a hot spring resort hundreds of kilometers away. To ensure the quality and temperature of the pool water, we have employed the most advanced equipment and technology all to provide our distinguished guests with a unique ultimate experience. Moreover, this place is only open to the most esteemed guests, the manager introduced. Not bad. Wang Chan looked at the mermaids. and couldn’t help but exclaim, this is indeed a playground for the wealthy. In his previous life, he hadn’t just experienced it, he hadn’t even seen such a grand scene. Isn’t this just a real-life version of a debauched paradise? No wonder his good brother knew to bring him to such a great place. Wang Sikong smiled proudly, of course. It is said that the money spent to create this club is astronomical. There’s also a golf course, a horse racing track and a professional shooting range nearby. Today, I’m treating you. If you find it fun, get yourself a membership card, and you can come enjoy any time. Speaking of which, when I first came here, I was so enchanted that I didn’t want to go home for a whole week. The group continued along the winding corridor. Along the way, the famous artworks hanging on the walls radiated a unique artistic charm under the lights. The carpet beneath their feet was thick and soft. Each step felt like walking on clouds. Finally, the manager stopped in front of an exquisite wooden door and raised his hand to push it open. Stepping into the private room, the first thing that caught their eyes was a huge round dining table, made from a single, piece of top-quality natural marble. Surrounding it were chairs wrapped in premium first-layer cowhide filled with high-density sponge. Not only was it soft to the touch, but it also provided excellent lumbar support. In one corner of the room, there were several independent resting areas. A set of European-style genuine leather sofas was placed nearby. On the coffee table in front of the sofa, there was a delicate bone china tea set and a bottle of just-open top-quality red wine, exuding an enticing aroma. Opposite the resting area was a small stage where a stunning woman in ancient costume danced gracefully to the soothing music. Wang Chen looked around and saw several large oil paintings hanging on the walls of the private room. The paintings depicted a medieval court feast in Europe with lifelike figures and vibrant colors. These paintings are all originals, right? Wang Chen couldn’t help but ask. What a grand display, just these paintings alone are worth a fortune. Mr. Wang has a good eye, these are all authentic works by masters from the Renaissance period, which our boss went to great lengths to collect, the manager replied respectfully. Wang Sikong walked to the bar, picked up a bottle of aged brandy, and shook it, old Chen, bring out your best cigars. Sure thing, young master Wang, just a moment, the manager quickly responded. Before long, manager Chen came over with an exquisite cigar box containing several top quality Cuban cigars. Xinfen sat comfortably on the sofa, leaning back against. The chair, this place is perfect for business talks and gatherings, it’s so comfortable. Wang Chen stepped to the window and pulled back the heavy curtains. Outside was. A lush garden, with pavilions and towers arranged harmoniously, and a babbling brook flowing, resembling a paradise on earth. This place is simply a fairyland, it’s. Really nice, Wang Chen exclaimed sincerely. Wang Sikong walked over with a smile, patting Wang Chen on the shoulder, if you want to relax in the future, just come here. Get a membership card, and whatever you want, they have it all. Wang Sikong turned to the manager and said, you start bringing in some things, we’ll arrange the rest. Later. Alright, young master Wang, the manager replied before turning and leaving the private room. Before long, a group of coolly-dressed service staff entered in succession. There were tender, juicy steaks paired with special sauces and beautifully arranged seafood platters featuring lobsters, oysters, and more, all air freighted from the deep sea that very day, incredibly fresh. As for drinks, in addition to the red wine and brandy from earlier, there were various freshly squeezed juices in specialty. Cocktails. and may run wine. Dear guests, please enjoy. These are the club’s signature delicacies and drinks. I hope they suit your taste, the manager said while directing the staff to neatly arrange the food and drinks. The group clinked glasses and enjoyed the fine food and wine, the atmosphere growing increasingly lively. Wang’s seat zones. Cheeks flushed slightly, a hint of drunkenness in his demeanor as he raised his hand to call the manager, saying boldly, old Chen, bring in the girls we’ve arranged. Sure thing, young master Wang, just a moment, the manager understood and replied with a perfectly timed smile, slightly bowing as he spoke. With that, he turned in quickly. Left the private room. Not long after, the door to the private room was pushed open again. A wave of fragrance swept in as ten or so graceful girls entered in succession. They wore various styles of sexy and alluring outfits. Some wore crop tops paired with hot skirts, while others donned fitted chongsams that accentuated their curves. There were also those in exotic attire, each one strikingly beautiful. The girls had diverse appearances, with all skin tones represented, except for black. They’re fair. Skin, deep-set eyes, and high noses made each one a stunning beauty, and it was clear they were all imported originals. Wang Sikong raised his glass, stood up, and pointed. At the girls, saying to Wang Chen, Brother, since it’s your first time here, rest assured that these are all carefully selected by the club, they are definitely worth. It’s. Wang Chen looked at the scene before him, his heart racing. Although the women around him were all stunning, indulging a little was always tempting. Now that he was here. Why pretend, we’re all buddies. His gaze swept over the girls, finally landing on a girl with wheat-colored skin and another with blonde hair and blue eyes, saying, just those two. The girl with wheat-colored skin had a neat short haircut, her eyes radiating American warmth and boldness, a smile on her lips as she walked straight to Wang Chen and sat down, affectionately linking her arm with his, the blonde, blue-eyed girl walked with an elegant stride, her figure swaying gracefully, her long golden hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, quietly sitting beside Wang Chen. Seeing that Wang Chen had made his choice, Wang Si Tsong smiled and scanned the room, waving, His hand grandly, I want these few. He selected several girls with stunning figures and sweet looks who giggled and playfully surrounded him. Sheen Fan was not to be outdone, picking a few girls that matched his preferences and the private room was suddenly filled with lively chatter and laughter. The girls skillfully picked up their glasses, pouring drinks for the men. Some leaned on their shoulders, acting coy, while others took the initiative to spark conversations, instantly elevating the atmosphere. To a peek. After a while, Wang Chen was surrounded by two girls as they walked into the room next to the private suite. Wang Si -tsong and Qin Fen also left with their girls. Hi, I’m Lily from the beautiful country. The sun-kissed girl blinked her lively big eyes and spoke first, her voice crisp and pleasant, carrying the unique intonation of American English. The blonde, blue-eyed girl gently tossed her golden hair and said softly in English with a slight Eastern European accent, I’m Anastasia, I’m Ukrainian. Lily enthusiastically pulled Wang Chen to sit on the edge of the bed, casually grabbing a bottle of champagne from the table, expertly opening it and pouring a glass for each of the three. Cheers, young master Wang, she raised her glass, her eyes sparkling with excitement. Anastasia also lifted her glass, gently clinking it. With Lily and Wang Chen’s, taking a small sip, a charming smile curling at the corners of her mouth. Lily leaned closer to Wang Chen, giving him a gentle kiss on the cheek. Anastasia also slowly moved closer, her fingers lightly tracing Wang Chen’s shoulder, whispering in his ear, relax, just enjoy this moment. The atmosphere in the room grew. Increasingly intimate, soft music flowing through the air. Lily stood up, twisting her waist to the rhythm of the music, each of her movements brimming with vitality and allure. Anastasia also stood up, perfectly in sync with Lily. Their dance styles were completely different yet equally captivating. One was fiery and passionate, the other elegant and enchanting, making it impossible for Wang Chen to take his eyes off them. After a bout of indulgence, Anastasia and Lily fell into a deep sleep. Wang Chen stepped out of the room, still craving more excitement. He remembered the club manager mentioning a professional boxing ring here, which piqued his interest, and he strode over in that direction. Pushing open the door to the boxing ring, he was greeted by a standard boxing arena. It was surrounded by brand new ropes and various posters. Of boxers adorned the walls. A tall, muscular white boxer was warming up with punching bags, each punch causing the bag to sway violently, emitting a dull thud. Win manager. Chen saw Wang Chen enter, his heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly jogged to follow him. Young Master Wan was a distinguished guest. If anything went wrong here, he couldn’t bear the consequences. Young Master Wang, what brings you here? How about I take you to a more interesting place? Manager Chen said with a forced smile, trying to persuade Wang Chen to leave. However, Wang Chen remained unfazed, his eyes fixed on the white boxer in the ring, saying, I just want to throw a few punches, stretch a bit. With that, he eagerly prepared to step onto the stage. His physical condition had already surpassed human limits, but unfortunately, he lacked the corresponding skills. Seeing that he couldn’t stop him, Manager Chen could only silently lament and quickly signal to the white boxer. The boxer understood and nodded slightly. He couldn’t afford to offend these wealthy young masters. Wang Chen put on the boxing gloves and stepped into the ring, striking a pose he thought was quite professional. He immediately launched an attack, throwing a straight punch with decent speed and power, but it was completely unrefined if the white boxer easily sidestepped. He pretended to retreat a couple of steps, acting somewhat flustered following Wang Chen’s momentum. Seeing this, Wang Chen’s confidence surged and he launched into a series of combination punches. Although his movements were a bit chaotic, the momentum was impressive. The white boxer remained cautious, dodging carefully, occasionally blocking symbolically, but never retaliating. Before long, Wang Chen felt it was becoming dull. He stopped, looking at the relaxed expression on the white boxer’s face, realizing that the opponent was holding back. Stop hiding, are you afraid to really fight? Wang Chen said provocatively. The white boxer smiled, took off his mouth guard, and gave Wang Chen a thumbs up. He spoke in somewhat broken Chinese, you have great strength, but I’m a professional boxer, I’m afraid of hurting you. Then he added in English, if you received professional training, you might even win a championship in a professional match. Hearing this, Wang Chen felt a bit more at ease, and the initial anger dissipated. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, alright, let’s call it a day. But next time, you better give me a real fight. The white boxer quickly nodded in agreement. Manager Chen Also breathed a sigh of relief and hurried over, smiling at Wang Chen, young master Wang, you were fantastic. How about a shower first? I can arrange some other fun for you. Wang Chen snorted, tossing his gloves to manager Chen, no need. He then walked into the shower room. After finishing his shower, Wang Chen emerged from the bathroom, feeling refreshed. As soon as he stepped into the corridor of the club, he heard a familiar voice, finally found you, where have you been? Wang Chen looked up to see. Wang Si Kong Wang Si Tsong walked up to Wang Chen, placing a hand on his shoulder, jokingly saying, Where have you been gallivanting alone? We thought you were lost. Just. Went to the boxing ring to throw a few punches, stretching my muscles, Wang Chen replied with a smile. The two chatted as they returned to the private room, and as soon. As they entered, it was filled with laughter and chatter. Xinfren shouted, I heard you went boxing? Why are you back so soon? Is your stamina not up to par? Did you just. Rush to exercise? Wang Chen ignored his teasing and walked straight to the coffee table, picking up a glass of wine and taking a big gulp. At that moment, the door too. The private room was pushed open again, and Anastasia and Lily walked in hand in hand. They were wearing light bathrobes, their hair still slightly damp, and their faces beamed, with satisfied smiles. Upon seeing Wang Chen, the two quickly approached and snuggled up to him affectionately. Anastasia gently stroked Wang Chen’s arm and said sweetly, Darling, you were amazing just now. Exactly, young master Wang is too impressive, we could barely keep up, Lily chimed in, deliberately rubbing against Wang Chen. Seeing this scene, Qin Fen’s expression instantly froze, the teasing smile stuck on his lips. He widened his eyes, watching the scene before him, feeling a pang of jealousy. I say, Wang Chen, you’re something else. These are foreign girls, and you’ve conquered them so quickly. Wang Sitsong couldn’t help but exclaim, his tone filled with envy. And jealousy. Wang Chen set down his wine glass, a slight smirk appearing on his lips, revealing a hint of pride. Just basic skills, he said, feigning modesty. Don’t. Be so humble, Qin Feng scoffed, looks like I really underestimated you. Inside, he was screaming like a groundhog. These are foreign girls, notoriously hard to conquer. Yet Wang Chen had effortlessly won over both of them. At that moment, the other women in the private room also cast envious glances, feeling jealous of Anastasia and Lily’s good fortune. Wang Chen was tall and handsome, far better than the greasy man Wang Sichong and Qin Feng. At this moment, Wang Sichong waved his hand at the girls, signaling them to leave. Seeing this, Wang Chen also nodded at Anastasia and Lily. The two girls reluctantly released Wang Chen’s arm and swayed their hips as they walked out of the private room. Once the girls had left, the playful smile on Wang Sitsong’s face instantly vanished, replaced by a look of dejection. He pulled Wang Chen down onto the sofa and said straightforwardly, Wang Chen, I need to tell you something. You know my panda live, right? It’s in big trouble now, the funding chain has broken, and many streamers have jumped ship. I want you to invest and help a brother out. Wangqin frowned, pondering for a moment before replying, the competition in the live streaming industry is too fierce right now. Douyu and Huya have already secured investments from Tencent and are developing rapidly, occupying a large share of the market. He picked up his glass, gently swirled it, and continued to analyze. PandaLive lacks the ability to generate its own revenue, and there were issues with the previous operational strategy. The management of signed streamers was too lax, with many top-tier streamers broadcasting on multiple platforms simultaneously, making it impossible to. Build user loyalty. Even if I invest now, it would be hard to turn the situation around. I might end up pouring more money into it, and it could just become a bottomless pit. As Wang Chen’s analysis sank in, Wang Sitsong’s frown deepened. He leaned back on the sofa, rubbing his temples and said, I know these problems, but I just can’t bear to give up. The future isn’t just about live streaming and gaming. Look at the current trends in the internet industry, artificial intelligence is rising rapidly. The next decade will be the era of AI and big data reshaping the internet. In this grand trend, the entire industry landscape will undergo earth-shattering changes. The terminal forms will be reconstructed in new directions, mobile phones, these devices will be redefined by AI technology. It might just be the era of AI terminals. Wang Chen leaned forward, looking earnestly at Wang Sikong. And if we look at industrial applications, the internet of vehicles, satellite fields, industrial internet, etc., are all leveraging AI for intelligent transformation. Panda Live isn’t worth saving anymore, it would be better to sell your shares for a good price while you can. Wang. Sikong listened, a contemplative expression on his face. He picked up a cigarette from the table, lit it, and took a deep drag, if what you say is true, the live streaming industry really is falling behind the times. It’s too difficult for Panda Live to break through in this environment. Instead of clinging to a gradually declining platform, it would be better to focus on emerging fields like artificial intelligence, big data, and cloud computing, where there are more opportunities. Wang Chen nodded and. continued his analysis. Wang Sikong remained silent for a long time, then sighed, it seems I can only give up. To be honest, Panda Live feels like a child I’ve raised for many years, and now I have to let go, it really doesn’t feel good. Wang Chin patted his shoulder in comfort, don’t be too sad, out with the old, in with the new. With your abilities and resources, you’ll definitely shine again in a new field. I hope so, Wang Sikong forced a smile, alright then, I’ll listen to you and completely give up on Panda Live. Since we’ve decided, I need to quickly handle my shares, anything I can salvage is better than nothing. Yes, find a buyer as soon as possible while panda. Live still has some residual value. I know a few friends in the investment circle who are interested in the live streaming industry. I can help you make connections and see if we can sell it for a good price. Qin Fen also agreed. Thank you so much, Wang Chen. If you hadn’t analyzed it so thoroughly today, I might still be stubbornly holding on and end up dragging myself down. Wang Sikon looked gratefully at Wang Chen. What are you saying? We’re brothers, it’s only right to help each other out. Wang. Shen smiled and waved his hand. The three stood up, preparing to leave. They made their way to the lobby, Wang Sikong said anxiously, I need to hurry to Pudong airport. Once I’ve made up my mind, I need to deal with it quickly. Xinfen looked at Wang Sitsong’s hurried demeanor and couldn’t help but sigh, you say having a private jet is. Convenient, you can go wherever you want, leave whenever you want, without having to queue for hours at the airport like us ordinary people. You two are really something. Calling yourselves ordinary people? If you’re ordinary, then I’m a beggar, Wang Sikong replied with a helpless smile. Now that you mention it, I do think private jets are indeed convenient. Maybe I should buy one too, it would save a lot of time for future travels, Wang Chen said thoughtfully. Xinfeng’s eyes widened, you, the big spender. Just say you’re going to buy one like that. But with your financial power, buying a private jet really isn’t a big deal. Just as Wang Chen finished speaking, Anastasia and Lily exchanged a glance, a hint of barely noticeable anticipation flashing in their eyes. Anastasia gently bit her lip and said with a hint of playful reproach, Wang. Xiao, if you buy a private jet, you can’t forget about us. Who knows, maybe one day you’ll take us out for a spin. Exactly, exactly. Wang Xiao is so generous, he definitely. Won’t refuse, Lily quickly chimed in. Wang Chen still wore a faint smile on his face, but he was very clear in his heart that this was just a casual tease after a joyful. Time. He replied nonchalantly, sure, let’s talk about it when I buy one. His tone seemed dismissive, almost joking, but in reality, it was a clever way to draw a line. If one took it seriously, that would be foolish. The three of them walked out of the room, and the night outside had already deepened. The driver was waiting at the door. In a Rolls Royce, and they got into the car one after another. First, they dropped Wang Sikong off at Pudong Airport. Then, the car carried Wang Chen and Qin Feng towards Lu Jiazui. The vehicle slowly entered the exclusive driveway of the Tianmu Palace, and after stopping, Wang Chen got out. After bidding farewell to Qin Feng, Wang Chen returned. To the house. The moment he opened the door, the silence inside hit him. He walked straight to the bedroom, guided by the faint light coming through the window. He casually tossed his coat onto a nearby chair and flopped onto the soft bed. Stretching his limbs freely, he buried his face deep into the pillow. In just a moment, even breaths began to fill the room. As the night grew quiet, Wang Chen was blissfully unaware in his dreams. Meanwhile, online, the two posts from Wang Sikong and Qin Fen had set. The internet ablaze. Sikong was the first to post a group photo of the three of them on social media where Wang Chen was smiling, exuding an outstanding aura, standing. prominently in the middle. Wang Sikong captioned it, reunited with my good brothers, happy times are always fleeting. Almost simultaneously, Xinfen shared the same photo, writing, had a great conversation with dear friends today, having such brothers is truly a blessing in life. These two posts instantly ignited the curiosity of netizens. The comment section was quickly flooded with various messages. Who is this handsome guy next to Wang Sikong? Why haven’t I seen him before? If he can call principal Wang his brother, his identity must be extraordinary. His looks are incredible, so handsome and charismatic, standing between Wang Sikong and Qin Fen without losing any presence. I want to know who he is. He seems like a hidden big shot, just looking at this face, I’m already captivated. I want to know his story. He must be some rich air. After all, he’s in the middle of Wang Sikong and Qin Fen. As the discussion heated up, this post quickly climbed to the top of the trending list. Various marketing accounts began to share it. The entire internet was speculating about Wang Chen’s identity. Some guessed he was a mysterious business magnate, controlling a vast commercial empire behind the scenes. Others thought he might be a low-key heir from a wealthy family, rarely appearing in the public eye and many fans were simply drawn to Wang Chen’s good looks. They went wild in the comments section, confessing their admiration. For a time, the topic of Wang Chen remained hot on the internet. Just as netizens were fervently speculating about Wang Chen’s identity, a mysterious user claiming to be Shanghai Intelligence dropped a bombshell on social media. First, there was a Photo of Wang Chen driving a limited-edition Ferrari LaFerrari speeding through the streets of Shanghai. The coolest of the luxury car and Wang Chen’s handsome profile were clearly visible, instantly igniting the comments section. Following that, Shanghai Intelligence released more juicy details, exposing several photos of Wang Chen entering and exiting bars. Security guards in crisp uniforms stood at the bar entrance while luxury cars lined up in a long queue. Is that a LaFerrari? Wow, that aura only. A top-tier rich second -generation could handle it. I bet he’s the heir of some multinational corporation, this is insane. Netizens were in awe. Soon after, another photo surfaced showing Wang Chen dining in the cafeteria with a sweet-looking girl. The two were laughing and chatting, looking very sweet together. This time, the comments exploded, so he’s still a student at the university. What kind of campus CEO drama is this? The girl next to him is so pretty, could she be the campus beauty? Sure enough, news quickly spread that Wang Chen was not only a junior at the university but that the girl beside him was indeed the campus beauty. Meanwhile, a classmate of Wang Chin couldn’t hold back and anonymously leaked online. Wang Chin is usually very low-key at school. He doesn’t like to show off. We all know he’s not simple, but we didn’t expect him to be this impressive. He’s friends with Wang Sikong and Xinfun. He’s hidden it too well. That wasn’t all. Some netizens joined the fun and shared information about the luxurious sky palace at Zhongshan Road, hinting that it was Wang Chin’s residence. This is the top luxury apartment in Shanghai. Living here shows the family strength. In no time, the topic of Wang Chen skyrocketed in popularity online. Marketing accounts seized the opportunity, launching a series of articles revealing Wang Chen’s identity. Major forums were flooded with posts related to Wang Chen. Netizens discussed everything from his luxury cars and mansions to his campus life and relationship status, leaving no detail untouched. Wang Chen had completely transformed from a mysterious figure into a well-known topic across the internet. Meanwhile, Wang Chen was still sound asleep on the big bed in the Sky Palace, completely unaware that he had stirred up a storm online. Awaiting him would be a flood of attention and discussion when he woke up the next day. The next day, the morning sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains quietly falling on Wang Chen’s face. He frowned, instinctively raising his hand to shield his eyes from the light. Slowly, he opened his eyes. He stretched widely, letting out a satisfied groan, and then leisurely sat up in bed. Just then, the sudden ringing of his phone broke the tranquility of the room. Wang Chen reached out to fumble on the bedside table, picked up his phone, and saw that it was a call from Qin Feng. He pressed the answer button, his voice still laced with sleepiness. Hello, Lao Qin, what’s up so early? On the other end, Qin Feng’s cheerful laughter rang out. Huh, Wang Chen, you don’t know yet? You’re now a huge internet celebrity. What do you mean huge celebrity? What are you talking about? Wang Chen looked puzzled, rubbing his still sleepy head. Qin Feng laughed even harder, you should check online quickly, your news is everywhere. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen became a bit more alert. He opened his phone, and what greeted him were various trending topics and notifications about himself. Looking at the overwhelming reports and discussions, he couldn’t help but feel a bit helpless. What is all this about? Wang Chen sighed. What are you planning to do? With the current hype so high, should we strike while the iron is hot and do something? Qin Fen asked. Wang Chen pondered for a moment and calmly replied, a cool treatment will suffice. This hype comes quickly and fades just as fast. There’s no need to pay it any mind. In a while, everyone will forget. Xinfen agreed, alright, we’ll go with your plan. I’m just afraid this. Sudden attention might scare you. I’m not that fragile, don’t worry, Wang Chen smiled. Xinfen continued on the phone, by the way, there’s a huge auto show at the National Exhibition Center in Magic City these days, featuring luxury cars from around the world and the latest models, along with several concept cars. Do you want to join in? The fun? Listening to this, Wang Chen felt a flicker of curiosity. After all, the auto show would showcase many rare luxury cars. The National Exhibition Center is the largest exhibition complex in Asia. The venue is particularly large, and the facilities are very advanced. Many car companies and visitors attend the exhibition. Sure, it wouldn’t hurt to take a look, anyway, there’s nothing special going on lately. Great, let’s meet at the entrance of the exhibition center. I’ll arrive around 10 in the morning, is that convenient for you? Qin Fen asked. Wang Chen checked the time and nodded, 10 o’clock is fine, see you then. Alright, it’s settled then, Qin Fen said. Excitedly. Ah, okay, I’ll hang up now, we’ll chat more at the auto show. Wang Chen laughed and hung up the phone. He got up and walked to the window, pulling back the heavy curtains, and sunlight instantly filled the entire room. At 10 in the morning, the sun was just right, and the sky was clear. Wang Chen drove his black. Koning Seg Ajara, arriving punctually at the entrance of the Magic City Exhibition Center. From a distance, he spotted Qin Fen standing there, looking around. Next to him, were the chubby Li Xiang and Chen Su, along with Yao Jinglong. It had been a long time since they last met. Everyone seemed particularly excited. Wang Chen, over here. Yao. Jinglong, with sharp eyes, spotted Wang Chen and waved eagerly. Wang Chen quickly walked over, smiling and greeting everyone one by one, long time no see. Li Xiang grinned. And patted Wang Chen on the shoulder, wow, you’re quite the celebrity now, your news is all over the internet. It’s all thanks to Lao Qin and Lao Wang, Wang Chen. Replied, somewhat annoyed. Haha, who told you to be so low-key every day? Qin Feng teased with a smirk. As they chatted, they looked around, and the auto show was filled. With luxury cars, showcasing various top brands. Influencers dressed in fashion posed in front of the cars for photos. Journalists and media personnel were busy capturing. The exciting moments of the auto show with their cameras. The scene was bustling with people, extraordinarily lively. The crowd surged, making it somewhat difficult to. Move forward. Seeing this, Gene Phun smiled and said, Fortunately, I prepared in advance. Follow me, we’ll take the special passage. With that, he led everyone toward the. Entrance of the Special Passage Wang Chen and Qin Fen also brought their bodyguards along. The bodyguards, well -trained, spread out in a circle around them. Not only did they clear a stable path for them, avoiding the crowd, but they also provided comprehensive protection for their safety. After all, with so many people around, caution is key. They successfully entered the auto show. Looking at the dazzling luxury cars, excitement sparkled in everyone’s eyes. As soon as they entered the exhibition, the noise hit. Them, various sounds intertwined. The venue was brilliantly lit, shining on the brand new luxury cars, reflecting dazzling light. The air was filled with the scent of new leather and a hint of perfume. Not far away, a group of car models stood beside a bright yellow supercar, particularly eye-catching. One of the models wore a Heislet red, fitted dress. Her long legs peeked out from under the Heislet and a pair of black stilettos accentuated her figure perfectly. Her makeup was exquisite, with fiery red lips complementing the red dress and her long wavy hair casually draped over her shoulders. She slightly turned to the side.A hand gently rested on the body of the supercar. While the other hand elegantly hung by the side, the eyes revealing confidence and allure. From time to time, a charming smile was directed at the surrounding audience. Taking photos. Yao Jinglong’s eyes widened, unable to suppress a gulp. He excitedly said, Wow, this is just too sexy. This is where a man should be. Stop acting like. You’ve never seen the world before. Hurry up and check out the cars. Shinsu laughed as he gave him a push. Xinfen led the way ahead, smiling as he said, There are plenty. Of supercars at this auto show, I heard there’s even a global limited edition, let’s hurry and take a look. The group followed Qin Fen towards the luxury supercar display area. Along the way, the crowd buzzed with excitement, everyone eagerly discussing the various luxury cars on display. Wang Chen’s bodyguards closely followed them, always alert to the surroundings, ensuring their safety. After just a few steps, someone in the crowd suddenly recognized Qin Fen and Wang Chen, causing an instant stir. Look, isn’t that Wang Chen who’s been trending recently? and Qin Fun, they actually came to the auto show together. Oh my god, Wang Chen is so handsome. I heard he has a good relationship with Wang Sikong, his background must be impressive. I wonder if he’ll buy a luxury car at the show today. I wonder if they’ll take a photo with us, I’m all ready. Excited whispers quickly spread through the crowd, more and more people turned to look at them, their eyes filled with the fervor of fans. Before long, quite a few people gathered around, pulling out their phones to take pictures. Some bolder ones attempted to move closer, wanting to get a closer look. The security. Personnel on site sensed the situation was getting out of hand and quickly moved in closer. Wang Chen and Qin Fen’s bodyguards also tacitly formed a circle with the staff. Tightly protecting the group in the middle, creating a solid barrier to prevent them from being jostled by the crowd. I can’t believe I get to see Wang Chen here, I’m so. Lucky, a young girl exclaimed, her voice trembling with excitement. Yeah, Wang Chen is super hot right now, I wonder if he’ll buy a luxury car at the auto show, that. Would be big news, a boy next to her chimed in. Faced with this sudden attention, Wang Chen and Qin Fen remained calm, clearly having anticipated such a scene. Qin Fen’s lips, curled up slightly, teasingly saying to Wang Chen, looks like our low-key outing is going down the drain. Wang Chen shrugged helplessly and smiled, it doesn’t matter. The crowd was kept at a safe distance by the bodyguards and staff. Yet the fans on site remained enthusiastic, holding up their phones and following closely behind them. The cameras were tightly focused on Wang Chen and Qin Fen, eager to capture every move they made at the auto show. They were looking forward to witnessing the exciting. moment when Wang Chen would choose a luxury car, speculating which model he would favor. Soon, they arrived at the Rolls Royce showroom. The showroom was dazzling with lights, reflecting the metallic shells of these luxury cars, making them shine brilliantly. One by one, the cool Rolls Royces exuded an irresistible charm. As the group stepped into the showroom, the already noisy atmosphere reached a new peak. The car models, who had been wearing professional smiles and posing elegantly, instantly lit up with surprise and excitement upon seeing Wang Chen and the others. At the Rolls Royce booth, a car model dressed in a silver sequin-tight mini dress showcased her long legs, which were quite eye-catching beneath the short skirt. Upon seeing Wang Chen, she immediately adjusted her pose, slightly bending one leg and leaning forward to display her perfect curves. She also occasionally tossed her long wavy hair, her eyes filled with seduction, a charming smile on her lips, trying to leave a deep impression on Wang Chen. The Bugatti model wore a black backless gown, revealing her fair and beautiful back, she crossed her arms over her chest, and in her originally cold gaze, there was now. A hint of eagerness. Tilting her head slightly, she looked at Wang Chen with affectionate eyes, as if silently inviting him to come closer. I never expected Wang Chen would come to our exhibition hall. I must seize this opportunity today, a car model whispered to her companion beside her. Yeah, if we could take a photo with him or catch. His attention, we might just become famous, her companion agreed. The owner of the Rolls-Royce showroom had high expectations for this car exhibition. They had even specially invited the well-known internet celebrity Jean Kaur to do a live broadcast. Jean Coeur had been active on various platforms for years, and with her talent and outstanding looks, she had amassed over a million fans online. Jean Coeur was live streaming in front of a Koreanan. She was originally chatting playfully with her fans through her phone. Suddenly, a commotion erupted in the showroom, and she turned to look. Upon seeing the scene, she was instantly stunned. What’s going on? Why is the host frozen? Did a big star arrive? Hurry up, I’m dying of anxiety. The comments are about to flood the screen. Let us see what’s happening. Jean Kaur snapped back to her. Senses after a moment of days. Looking at the excited comments, she said, Sorry, family, do you know who I just saw? Don’t keep us in suspense. Who is it? I’m dying to. No. If you don’t tell us soon, everyone in the live stream will leave. Jean Kaur smiled slightly and said, Alright, I’ll tell you. She paused and continued, The. Internet sensation Wang Chen is at the car exhibition, and Xinfeng is here too. As soon as Jean Kaur finished speaking, the live stream exploded. What the hell, Wang Chen. Is here too? Host, quickly turn the camera to Wang Chen, do you even know what you’re doing? Sister, hurry and turn the camera, let us see how handsome our idol really is. Gene Phun is here too, let us see him. Gene Corr looked at the flood of comments demanding to see Wang Chen. She hesitated and said, isn’t this a bit inappropriate? These rich second generation kids probably mind being in the spotlight, if I suddenly point the phone at them, would that be too much? The host is right, don’t put Gene. Corr in a tough spot. Exactly, with Wang Chen’s status, how could he allow a live stream? At that moment, a viewer in the live stream suggested, why not ask Wang Chen? If he would allow it? Just say it’s a strong request from over a million viewers. Hey, I think that’s a good idea, host, you should give it a try. Yeah, host, what if? Wang Chen agrees? Jean Kaur’s eyes lit up at the suggestion from the viewers. Yes, she could definitely ask if Wang Chen agreed, her live stream traffic would skyrocket. Excitedly, Jean Kaur said to her viewers, family, wait for my good news, I’m going to ask right now. Go ahead, we’re waiting for your good news. Host, bring out the. charm you usually use to entice us. Yeah, Wang Chen is so young, if he isn’t captivated by Jin Kour, it would be a total waste. By the way, if you keep giving the host ideas, and Wang Chen takes a liking to her, what will we watch in the future? What the hell, why didn’t you say that earlier? Jin Kour ignored the comments from her fans. She took a deep breath to calm her excitement. It would be impossible to say she didn’t have other thoughts. Wang Chen was a rich second generation. Just like Wang Si Tsong and Xinfeng. If she could catch Wang Chen’s eye, who would care about live streaming? Being Wang Chen’s woman would be a leap to the top, completely. Rewriting her life script, various extravagant images flashed through Jean Kaur’s mind. The more she thought about it, the more entranced she became, even causing her hand. Holding the phone to tremble slightly, she made up her mind. No matter what, she had to get Wang Chen’s contact information today. She hurriedly tidied her hair and makeup. Ensuring everything was perfect, then, with a graceful stride, she walked towards Wang Chen. The live stream room instantly erupted. What is the host trying to do? She, can’t really be thinking of flirting with Wang Chen, that’s too bold. It’s over, it’s over, the host is going to get lovestruck and give up her streaming career for a. Man. Jean Kaur, don’t leave us, wake up. Wang Chen is surrounded by beauties, how could he easily notice you? Jean Kaur approached Wang Chen and sweetly smiled at him, saying, hello, young master Wang, I’m the host Jean Kaur, may I get to know you? At that moment, Wang Chen was admiring the Rolls Royce models in the exhibition hall. He turned to look at Jean Coeur and a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes. She was wearing a white sequin gown, her hair in large waves, and she was stepping in a pair of silver high heels, perfectly outlining her curves. She radiated charm. Name, Yunlu age, 28 height, 168cm charm, 91 physique, 82 favorability, 60 skills. Intermediate piano, advanced dance, intermediate singing, Wang Chen waved his hand at the bodyguard. He knew this woman was a well-known online host. She could sing and… dance, and her piano skills, especially her thunderous performances, were particularly captivating. She had a considerable fan base online. The bodyguard, upon Wang Chen’s signal, stepped aside to let Jin Kour in. Jin Kour walked up to a few people, her face full of smiles, and said, Young Master Wang, Young Master Qin, hello, I’m the host. Jin Kour, my real name is Yun Lu, it’s a pleasure to meet you. Qin Feng noticed that Jin Kour was there to find Wang Chen and immediately laughed, Old Wang, you too. Chat, we’ll step aside and take a look. Old Wang, you really have good fortune with women, Chen Su chuckled as he followed Qin Feng to the side to check out the cars. Wang, Chen could only helplessly say, do you have something to discuss? Young Master Wang, I received a request from Rolls Royce to come here for a live stream. I just saw. You come in, and the fans in the live stream want to see you, so I thought I’d ask for your permission, Jin Kour said with a sweet smile. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, his gaze scanning Jin Kour from head to toe. Oh, what benefit do I get from letting your fans see me? Wang Chen said playfully. Jean Kaur’s heart skipped a beat. However, having been in the streaming industry for years, she was very adaptable. She quickly composed herself. She blinked her big, watery eyes and said softly, Young Master Wang, you may not know, but you are a national-level idol online now and many people want to see your true self. Alright, Wang Chen nodded. With so many people and reporters. Taking photos of her, one more person wouldn’t make a difference. Moreover, she had taken the initiative to ask for his opinion, which gave Wang Chen a bit of goodwill. Towards her. Jin Kor let out a cheer. She took out her phone and said, Young Master Wang, may I have the honor of adding you as a contact? Sure, Wang Chen took out his phone and added Jin Kor on Fei XIN. Thank you so much. I’ll go back to live streaming now, Jin Kor felt. Wang Chen was completely different from what she had imagined. He didn’t have the slightest air of a rich second generation, which made her other thoughts more active. Wang Chen watched as Jin Kor walked towards a black culinand. His eyes lit up. Wait a moment, let me take a look at that car. The two approached the culinand. Jean Coor said to Wang Chen, Young Master Wang, are you interested? In this culinan? Not bad. Wang Chen touched the body of the culinan, his eyes filled with admiration. During this time, he had been driving sports cars every day. Ordinary sports cars no longer piqued his interest. Moreover, sports cars only had one passenger seat. It was fine usually, but when there were more girls, it became somewhat impractical. Wang Chen asked a staff member nearby, how much is this car? Young Master Wang, this culinan is priced at 7,800,000. Staff member quickly replied. Swipe the card. Wang Chen directly took out his bank card and said. What? The staff member was instantly stunned. This was a cullinan worth. Over 7 million. With various taxes and fees, it would exceed 10 million. Was Wang Chen buying cabbage? So straightforward. Coming back to his senses, he said even more. Respectfully, young master Wang, with all the fees, this car will cost 10,800,000. What do you think? Just handle the paperwork. Wang Chen. Said. Alright, young master Wang. The staff member no longer said much and immediately went to process the relevant paperwork. Soon, he handed the documents to Wang Chen. Wang Chen glanced through them briefly. After confirming there were no issues, he signed. Payments successful. Ding! The system detected that the host spent $10,800,000 and a double cashback of $21 ,600,000 was issued. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 1080 system points. The scene erupted in exclamations. The male god is too extravagant, just buying a cullinan like that. Who says otherwise? Over 10 million, and he didn’t even blink before. Making the purchase. Hubby, I love you. Darling, look at me, I can do anything. Male god, let’s take a picture. Jean Kaur, holding her phone, also. Gasped, covering her mouth in disbelief. She knew Wang Chen was wealthy. But she never expected him to be this rich. The local tycoons who usually came to her livestream. To tip would feel like they were on top of the world after spending tens of thousands on gifts. Compared to Wang Chen, they seemed so poor. This was a true god of wealth. The bullet comments in the live stream room instantly flooded the screen. Host, quickly bring the phone closer, I want to absorb young master Wang Zora, maybe I’ll win the lottery next second. I seriously suspect young master Wang is the god of wealth incarnate experiencing life, otherwise how could he buy a luxury car worth millions as easily as buying an ice cream? Isn’t it just a cullinan? What’s so impressive about it? Rich guy upstairs, send me 50 to show your strength. Same here, rich guy. Send me 50 for a crazy Friday. If I had the financial power of the mail god, I’d eat fried dough sticks for breakfast, eat one and throw one away, and drink a bowl of soy milk and pour another bowl. Jean Kaur looked at the rapidly scrolling comments on her phone, feeling a bit dazed. She steadied her mind and pointed the camera back at Wang Chun. At this moment, Wang Chun was calmly conversing with the staff beside him, completely unaffected by the surrounding commotion. The reporters on site were continuously taking pictures of Wang Chun with their cameras. Various detailed photos were sent online immediately, sparking heated discussions. Shocking. Mail God. Wang Chen spends millions at the car show to instantly acquire a culinan, what kind of divine operation is this? 10 million culinan easily secured, will Wang Chen’s mysterious wealth empire be exposed? Wang Chen’s extravagant spending, is buying a culinan a personal preference or a prelude to a business layout? After Wang. Shin completed the payment, the Rolls-Royce staff respectfully said, Young Master Wang, we will process the license plate for you as quickly as possible and send the car to your mansion tonight. Okay. After Wang Chen left the address, he turned and walked towards the Bugatti showroom. Bodyguard Lung Fong and the other bodyguards closely followed Wang Chen, their eyes vigilantly scanning the increasingly excited crowd around them to ensure his safety. The host Jean Kaur hesitated as she watched Wang Chen prepare to leave. She was still working. But this was a rare opportunity, if she missed it, it would be difficult to have any further interaction with Wang Chen. The netizens. In the live stream room, seeing Wang Chen walking away, immediately became anxious. Host, don’t just stand there, hurry up and follow him. Jean Coeur, if you don’t catch. Up, I won’t be able to sleep all night, go for it. Host, don’t hesitate, if you miss this chance, there won’t be another, worst case, I’ll help you explain to Rolls Royce. What are you going to explain? What about the host’s work? Jean Coeur bit her lip and stomped her foot, saying, family, I’m going for it. After saying that, she. Slightly lifted her skirt and jogged towards Wang Chen. Family, I’ve really put my life on the line to meet your demands. The netizens immediately protested. You old. Woman, you’re the one who’s being sentimental and now you’re blaming us. Stop talking so much, let’s go, more and more people are coming. Wang Chen glanced at Jean Kaur, who had caught up and didn’t pay much attention. He looked at a streamer in the Bugatti showroom with a hint of interest. It was none other than Yu Meng. Yu Meng was the. Dream goddess of countless young men online. Sweet yet regal, her style was ever-changing. At that moment, she was live-streaming in front of a Bugatti supercar. She wore a tight white crop top that perfectly outlined her slender waist. Her lower half was paired with an ultra-short black leather skirt and long black stockings, showcasing her long, straight beautiful legs. On her feet were a pair of black stiletto heels, adding a touch of sexiness. Holding the live-streaming equipment, she animatedly explained the performance parameters of the Bugatti sports car to the camera. Goddess Yu Meng, look behind you, Wang Chin is coming. Don’t just stand there, quickly turn the camera. Around. Yu Meng was focused on introducing the sports car when she suddenly saw these comments and was momentarily taken aback. Why are you all so excited about that? Wang Chen? Yu Meng asked, somewhat puzzled. He’s the rich second generation Wang Chen who’s been trending all over the internet these days, buying luxury cars like it’s grocery. Shopping, you must have heard of him. The netizens were anxious and the comments became even more dense, overwhelming Yu Meng. It was only then that Yu Meng realized, her eyes flashing with surprise. How could she not know about Wang Chen? His information was the hottest topic online right now. She turned around and saw Wang Chen walking towards her from a distance. Wang Chen approached step by step and the crowd automatically parted to make way. Yu Meng’s heart inexplicably raced a little faster. However, she quickly adjusted her emotions, her face filled with smiles. Wang Chen, however, did not pay attention to Yu Meng. Instead, he looked at a blue Bugatti supercar. Behind her, the Meteor. This car is globally limited to 40 units. Equipped with an 8.0L quad-turbocharged W16 engine, it boasts a staggering 1850 horsepower, with a 0,100 km-slash-h acceleration time of just 2.17 seconds and a top speed of 500 kilometers per hour. The body is made of carbon fiber, featuring dreamy LED headlights and an X -shaped streamlined design. The exhaust ports at the rear resemble rocket nozzles, exuding an extreme aesthetic of violent beauty. Zhang Wei, the sales manager of Bugatti, had been keeping an eye on the movements of these rich second-generation airs. When he saw Wang Chen’s interest in the supercar, a smile immediately appeared on his face. Zhang Wei quickly adjusted his collar and walked towards Wang Chen. Young Master Wang, you truly have a good eye. Manager Zhang said with a beaming smile, respectfully introducing, this. Meteor is the most luxurious supercar in our showroom, and even at the entire auto show, there is nothing that compares. Just look at the exterior design, the X-shaped. Streamline paired with the dreamy LED headlights, when driving on the road, the head turning rate is absolutely off the charts, not to mention its terrifying performance. With 1850 horsepower output, it’s practically a land aircraft. Manager Zhang passionately explained, hoping to stir Wang Chen’s interest, these supercars easily cost tens of millions. Only these super-rich second-generationaires could afford them. After all, Wang Chen had just bought a Cullinan worth over 10 million. The chances of him making another purchase were quite high. Moreover, young master Wang, we have equipped this car with a dedicated top-notch after-sales service team. As long as you own it. We will provide the most elite and considerate service for all your maintenance and repairs, ensuring you have no worries at all, Li Ming added. His eyes were fixed on Wang Chen, trying to catch even the slightest sign of interest from his expression. Meanwhile, the other salespeople in the showroom also noticed the commotion over here. They all stopped their work, their eyes filled with envy. The crowd around, eager to watch, was buzzing with discussion. This was a supercar worth tens of millions. Who knew if Wang Chen would buy it? Yu Meng saw that Wang Chen was ignoring her and feeling a bit awkward, she turned to the viewers in the live stream and said, what do you think, will Wang Chen buy this car? I bet 50 cents, Wang Chen will pay in full. I don’t believe it, after all, it’s tens of millions. Wang Chen must consider it. Wang Chen looked at the fire meteor in front of him, a satisfied expression on his face. Handsome. That was Wang Chen’s first impression. This was another supercar, no less than the Koenigsegg Adria and Ferrari LaFerrari. How much is this car? Wang Chen directly asked manager. Zhang. Upon hearing this, manager Zhang’s smile became even more pronounced. He respectfully said, young master Wang, for a discerning guest. Like you, we can offer this fire meteor at a price of 76.88 million, and you can pay in full. This price is absolutely worth it globally, and. Swipe the card. Wang Chen interrupted manager Zhang before he could finish. As soon as those words were spoken, the crowd erupted. 76 .88 million, that’s way too. Expensive, and he just buys it like that? How many lifetimes would it take for someone to earn that much money? For my male god, this might just be pocket change. Gene Kuo and Yu Meng’s live stream also went wild. Various comments flooded the screen. Some were amazed, some were jealous, and even some were cursing. The disparity in human emotions was vividly displayed. Manager Zhang was momentarily stunned, unable to believe his ears. Quickly regaining his composure, he exclaimed joyfully, Young Master Wang, you are truly generous. This way, please, I will handle the car purchase procedures for you right away. Soon, Wang Chen signed the contract. Payment successful. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 76.88 million, double cashback of 153.76 million. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 7,688 system. Points. Damn. Yu Meng couldn’t help but curse. This was a supercar worth over 70 million. He just bought it like that? From Wang Chen’s appearance to the successful payment, did it even take more than 5 minutes? The barrage in the live stream was also flying up. 76 .88 million, it’s as easy as spending a few bucks. Please take my knee, this is the true winner of life. At this moment, the media reporters squeezed in beside them, going wild, there. Cameras flashing non-stop. They pressed the shutter desperately while shouting Wang Chen’s name. Young Master Wang, may I ask if there is any special reason for purchasing this supercar? What are your feelings about such a huge expenditure? Various questions surged like a tide. Gene Kuo and Yu Meng’s live stream reached an unprecedented peak of popularity. Their popularity was already good, but now it had skyrocketed to over a million. The barrage on the screen rolled like snowflakes, almost drowning the entire image. Manager Zhang tightly grasped Wang Chen’s hand, nearly moved to tears. Young Master Wang, this transaction is definitely the most glorious moment of my career. If you have any car purchasing needs in the future, no matter the model, even if it’s a globally limited edition, I will do everything I can to get it for you. Sounds good. Wang Chen just chuckled lightly, and with Manager Zhang’s message, the car would be delivered to his sky palace by the staff in the back. Wang Chen looked at Yu Meng beside him and said, I know you. Ah! Yu Meng couldn’t help but exclaim. She, instinctively said, young master Wang, you watch my live stream too. I watch it occasionally. Wang Chen smiled faintly. In his previous life, he quite enjoyed watching Yu Meng’s videos. Her style was ever-changing.It’s something you can watch a hundred times without getting tired of it. Wang Chen nodded at Yu Meng and then walked towards another exhibition hall to meet up with Qin Fun and the others. They arrived at the Ferrari exhibition hall. Chen Su had just bought a Ferrari supercar. When Qin Fun saw Wang Chen arrive, he joked, Oh, did you have a good chat with the little streamer? Are you all done? I don’t see anything special left, Wang Chen replied casually, changing. The subject. Yeah, I was going to wait for Chen Su to sell this car before coming to find you, but you got here first, Qin Fun said, speechless. Look at all these people. Here, they’re all here to see you. Once they buy, they’ll leave quickly. Wang Chen looked at the increasingly crowded surroundings and felt a bit of a headache. Ever since, the news of his arrival at the car show spread, it seemed like everyone in the entire city of M.O. had come here. After Wang Chen and Qin Fen left the exhibition hall, they each went their separate ways. Wang Chen drove his venom, speeding towards the Sky Palace, eager to leave this place of gossip behind. Inside the exhibition hall, Jin Kor and Yu Meng exchanged glances. Then, the two of them tacitly turned off the live stream. He just left like that? Yu Meng said, a bit dejected. He left, are you reluctant? Jin Kor teased as she regained her composure. she and you meng worked for the same company and were familiar with each other but due to work they hadn’t talked much you meng’s face flushed who’s reluctant i just feel that wang chen is different from other men what’s different jean core asked is he richer no he’s not lecherous jean core’s eyes lit up you noticed it too wang chen really is different from other men look at those people around us their eyes are glued to us but wang chen isn’t like them as she spoke jean core sighed a bit if only wang chen were a bit more lecherous that would be nice Ha, you’re laughing at me, but you’re the same, Yu Meng said, laughing heartily at Gene Kour, showing no hint of a goddess’s demeanor. After laughing for a while, Yu Meng said, Em, did you add Wang Chan on Fei Xien? I did, Gene Kour nodded. What? He doesn’t even pay attention to me, why did he add you on Fei Xien? Yu Meng immediately pounded her chest in disbelief. She looked at Gene Kour’s ample bosom and then at her own. There wasn’t much difference, was there? It was just a bit more fat. Why the different treatment? Was it rare for Wang Chan to like the bigger ones? Why don’t we contact Wang Chen later? Yu Meng’s eyes lit up. Contact him. Jean Kaur felt a bit tempted but finally said helplessly, don’t we still have work at the exhibition hall? Yu Meng waved her hand. We came here to attract foot traffic for the exhibition hall. Look at the scene now, do we need more people? Jean Kaur looked at the enormous exhibition hall in front of her, which was already packed with people. Even outside, more people were continuously streaming. In, just to catch a glimpse of the now internet famous male god, Wang Chen. Jin Kaur nodded, it seems we’re not needed anymore. In the evening, at Lu Jiazui, Pu Minghui restaurant. This is a relatively high-end Cantonese restaurant, famous for its signature dish of steamed crabs with chopped chili. And so on, the taste is quite good. Inside the private room, Wang Chen raised his wine glass, savoring the flavor of the fine wine. Knock knock. There was a knock at the door. Come in, Wang Chen said. The door to the private room opened. Boss, Miss Jin Kaur and Miss Yu Meng have arrived. Lung Phong pushed the door open, followed by Jin Kaur and Yu Meng. Jin Kuo and Yu Meng looked a bit nervous as they faced Wang Chen, standing straight. Wang Chen waved his hand. Seeing this, Lung, Fong wisely closed the door and stood guard outside. Sit down, there’s no need to be so formal, Wang Chen smiled. Shortly after leaving the exhibition hall, Jin Kuo contacted him. Wang Chen could tell at a glance what they were up to. These streamers may seem glamorous but they are actually propped up by capital, for someone like him, a wealthy person with ideas, it’s quite normal. So Wang Chen had the bodyguards bring them over. Alright, young master Wang. Jin Kour and Yu Meng cautiously sat across from Wang Chen. No need to be so formal, just treat it like a meal among friends, Wang Chen said, snapping his fingers at the waiter, let’s start serving the dishes. Before long, exquisite Cantonese dishes were brought to the table by the waiter. Jin Kour stole a glance at Wang Chen and mustered the courage to say, young master Wang, it’s an honor to have dinner with you. Thanks to you, our live stream fans have increased quite a bit. Indeed, it’s all thanks to you that our live stream fans have grown so much, Yu Meng quickly added. Although Wang Chen had only appeared in their livestream for a short while today, the increase in fans was more than what they had gained in a year. Yu Meng, who was already a relatively big internet celebrity, couldn’t help but sigh in front of Wang Chen. This beautiful woman found herself less attractive than this man. Oh, Wang Chen’s lips curled slightly, looks like I’m quite popular, but to keep the fans, you still have to rely on yourselves. Actually, the livestreaming industry is quite tough. Don’t be fooled by how glamorous we internet celebrities look online, casually saying a few words or singing a few songs to please the fans in making. Money, Gene Coruscide, from makeup to outfit coordination and communication with the company, there are many troubles. Exactly. You Meng nodded in agreement, not to mention, staying up late is a common occurrence in this industry, which is. Particularly unfriendly to us female streamers, our daily routines are all out of whack. If you want to take it easy, there are ways, Wang Chen said, picking up a piece of beef and chewing heartily. What ways? Jin Kour and Yu Meng exchanged. Puzzled glances, unsure of Wang Chen’s meaning. Think about what you have. Wang Chen only hinted and said no more, focusing on his meal. Yu Meng looked thoughtful, her gaze towards Wang Chen becoming somewhat complex. Wang Chen had already been quite straightforward, they were all adults. Wang Chen agreeing to have dinner with them indicated he had his own motives, besides their faces and their identities as internet celebrities, there wasn’t much else. Jin Kour tugged at Yu Meng’s sleeve, taking out her phone to communicate with Yu Meng under the table. The two exchanged messages for a while, hesitation occasionally flickering across their faces. Finally, a hint of determination appeared. Yu Meng stood up directly. Her face flushed slightly as she sat down next to Wang Chen. Jin Kor followed closely, taking a seat on Wang Chen’s left. Wang Chen smiled faintly. This was all within his expectations. He reached out and wrapped his arms around the soft waists of Jin Kor and Yu Meng. They leaned into Wang Chen’s embrace, their bodies pressed against him. Wang Chen’s hands roamed freely over the two of them. Jin Kor and Yu Meng trembled slightly but held back their shyness. Jin Kor’s cheeks turned. Even rhetoric she said softly, young master Wang, from now on, I’ll listen to you for everything. Sister is right. Yu Meng giggled, her hand stroking Wang Chen’s chest. Both Yu Meng and Jin Kor felt quite satisfied with this outcome. Having been in the live streaming industry for a long time, they often felt lonely. Wang Chen’s appearance provided them with a potential support. As a top-tier rich second generation, Wang Chen lacked neither money nor resources. Surely, they could. become wildly popular streamers. Wang Chen took a sip of the red wine that Yu Meng had fed him, glancing at the two of them. After a while, he said lightly, you really understand. What you want, I can satisfy. What I want, you must perform well. And not let me down. M-m. Jean Kui nodded immediately. Yummung picked up an oyster with her chopsticks and held it to Wang Chen’s mouth. Young Master Wang, try this oyster. It’s very plump. Wang Chen swallowed the oyster. It tastes good. Indeed very plump. Then you should eat more. Seeing Wang Chen satisfied with the food, a glimmer of delight flashed in Yu Ming’s eyes. She picked up another oyster to feed Wang Chen. Jean Kaur, unwilling to be outdone, reached for a wet towel. Nearby and gently wiped the juice left at the corner of Wang Chen’s mouth. Young Master Wang, have a sip of chicken soup, it’s very nourishing, she said softly. She bit her lips lightly, leaning her head gently on Wang Chen’s shoulder, her fingers. Lightly tracing circles on his arm. Wang Chen comfortably leaned back in his chair, enjoying the attentive service from both of them, and the meal lasted for two and a half hours before it ended. Wang Chen called the waiter to settle the bill. The total came to 46,800 yuan. Jin Kaur and Yamung remained calm, not surprised like Wang Chen’s other women. After all, they were big streamers. Although they rarely dined in such high-end places, with their earning speed, this amount of money was nothing to them. Wang Chen stood up and Jin Kaur and Yamung quickly linked their arms with his, one on each side, as they walked towards the restaurant entrance. As they stepped out of the restaurant, the cool light. Breeze of the magic city hit them. Yumung unconsciously leaned closer to Wang Chen while Jean Kour tightly grasped Wang Chen’s arm as if afraid of being blown away by the wind. Not far away, a black Rolls Royce culinan was quietly parked, its body shimmering with a cold light under the street lamps. This was the culinan that Wang Chen had just bought today. Bodyguard Lengfong had been waiting by the car, and as soon as Wang Chen emerged, he immediately stepped forward to open the car door. Wang Chen took the lead and sat in the back seat. Jean Coor and Yumming exchanged smiles and sat on either side of Wang Chen. The car door closed. Lang Fong opened the privacy partition. A black glass partition slowly rose from between. The seats completely separating the front driver’s cabin from the back seat. The atmosphere inside the car instantly became somewhat quiet, with only the faint sound of the engine. Yumming slightly adjusted her sitting position, her gaze sweeping. Over the car’s interior decor, her expression a bit tense. Young Master Wang, where are we going? Jin Kor tidied her skirt and stole a glance at Wang Chen, asking softly. Wang Chen did not answer Jin Kor’s question. He reached out to lift. Jin Kor’s chin, stroking her flushed cheek and said, you both performed well tonight, very considerate. Young master, as long as you are happy. Jin Kor’s heart raced at his sudden action, her gaze evasive yet filled with a hint of anticipation. Wang Chen’s other hand casually rested on Yu Ming’s long thigh. Yu Ming’s body trembled slightly, instinctively clenching her legs together, her face flushed, yet she did not dare to push Wang Chen’s hand away. Wang Chan’s lips curled up. Watching Yu Ming’s awkwardness, and he chuckled softly, what’s wrong, Shi? Weren’t you quite proactive in the restaurant just now? Yu Ming bit her lip and said softly, young master, I. I’m still a bit nervous. Wang Chan increased the pressure. Of his hand. Jin Kuo’s breathing quickened, her chest rising and falling slightly. She turned slightly to make Wang Chan’s movements more convenient. Boss, we’ve arrived, came Long Feng’s voice from the front. Wang Chan got out of the car. The. Night breeze brushed past, slightly dispersing the heat on him. Jin -Kur and Yum-Mung followed behind, their legs trembling, the blush on their faces still not faded. The three walked towards the elevator. Yum-Mung’s steps were unsteady, nearly stumbling. Jin-Kur was quick to support her. They exchanged glances, seeing shyness and tension in each other’s eyes. Arriving at the elevator, Wang-Chin pressed the button, his gaze sweeping over the two, a meaningful smile lingering on his lips. The elevator quickly reached the top floor. Entering the room, Wang-Chin turned to look at them, a smile on his face, come in, don’t just stand at the door. The two of them cautiously walked into the living room, their eyes constantly scanning. Everything around. Have a drink, relax a bit, Wang Shin said as he walked to the liquor cabinet, poured some drinks, and handed a glass to Jean Coor and Yu Meng. Jean Coor took the glass, sipped lightly, and felt the liquid slide down her throat, bringing a hint of warmth. It made her feel a little more at ease. Yu Meng mimicked her and took a sip. The richness of the red wine spread across her tongue, and her courage seemed to grow a bit. Yu Meng asked, Young Master Wang, your house is. Really beautifully decorated, it must be expensive, right? It’s alright, just around 200 million, Wang Chen replied with a smile, sitting down on the sofa and gesturing for them to sit as well. Gene Core and Yu Meng were instantly. Shocked. 200 million. What an astronomical figure. They knew this house would be expensive, after all, it was in the best area of Lu Jiazui in the Magic City. But they never expected this house to be worth such an astronomical sum. Online. Streaming was a high-paying job that everyone envied. Just by watching live streams every day, one could earn tens of millions, but that was just the surface figure. The company took a cut, and the platform took a cut too. In the end, what they actually received wasn’t much. It was definitely better than being a worker, but they didn’t even have the qualifications to compare with someone like Wang Chen, a top-tier rich second generation. 200 million was a sum they could never earn. In their lifetime of streaming, Wang Chen’s gaze wandered between the two, but no matter how beautiful a house is, it usually lacks liveliness. With you two here today, it’s quite lively. Jin Kor caught the meaning in his words, her cheeks. Flushed as she leaned closer to Wang Chen, young master Wang, we can come to accompany you often in the future. Yu Meng, not wanting to be outdone, sat on Wang Chen’s other side, gently placing her hand on his arm, yes, young master Wang, as long as you don’t mind us, we can come here every day. You two are so understanding, how could I mind? Wang Chen set down his glass and wrapped his arms around their waists. He placed a kiss on Jin Kor’s forehead, then turned to Yu Meng. It was. All so suave. Jin Kor and Yu Meng giggled, their bodies softening in Wang Chen’s embrace. The living room was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere, destined to be another sleepless night. The next day, nearing noon, Wang Chen felt a slight itch in his nose and slowly woke up. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Yu Meng leaning over, looking at him playfully, gently swaying a strand of her long hair in front of his nose. Seeing him awake, Yu Meng’s eyes instantly curved into crescent. Moon’s as she giggled, young master Wang, you finally woke up, it’s almost noon. Wang Chen rubbed his eyes and, taking the opportunity, pulled Yu Meng into his arms, lightly patting her bottom, laughing, little rascal. Looks like last night wasn’t tiring enough. Yu Meng burst into giggles. She wriggled out of his embrace, pointing at Jean Kaur, who was sleeping not far away, with sister Jean here, you can’t bully me, hee hee hee. Jean Kaur was sleeping soundly beside them, the blanket, slipping down to reveal her fair skin. Her hair was a bit messy on the pillow. She was in deep slumber. Hearing Wang Chan and Yu Meng talking, she sleepily opened her eyes. Young Master Wang, why are you up so early? Sister Jean, the sun is about. To shine on your backside, get up. No, I want to sleep a bit more. Jean Cor turned over and continued sleeping. God knows what time she went to bed last night. Wang Chan was simply not human. He was incredibly skilled at gaming, constantly. Pulling off various flashy moves. He was racking up kills like crazy, making it impossible for her to keep up. In the end, she could only surrender. If it weren’t for Yu Meng attracting Wang Chen’s firepower, she was afraid she would still be. Lying dead in the canyon. Jean Kour just wanted to sleep beautifully to make up for last night’s state. But with Yu Meng’s teasing, she could only reluctantly get up. Wang Chen activated his true sight to check the affection levels between the. 2. Name. Yun Lu. Age. 28. Height. 168cm. Charm. 91. Physique. 82. Affection. 93. Skills. Intermediate piano. Advanced dance. Intermediate singing. Name, Yu Meng, Age, 19, Height, 166cm, Charm, 94, Physique, 82, Affection, 95, Skills, Advanced COS, Advanced Dance, Intermediate Singing After having lunch delivered by the bodyguard, Wang Chen took out his phone and logged into his long-in-use DE Max level account, Woyou. He directly recharged. 6 million Hua Xia coins. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 6 million, doubling the cash back to 12 million. Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning 600 system points. Wang Chen looked at Gene Core and Yu Meng and said, open the live stream. Why? Yu Meng asked curiously. It should be better to send gifts in your live stream than to transfer money directly to you, Wang Chen replied with a faint smile. Consider it a reward for your hard work playing games. With me last night. Alright. Yu Meng blushed a little as she took out her phone and opened the live stream. Wang Chen’s gaming skills were really impressive. She realized she had become somewhat dependent on Wang Chen. As soon as Yu Meng opened the live stream, fans flooded in with comments. Dammit, what did you do after the stream ended yesterday, host? Yeah, my Meng Meng, you usually stream at night to keep us company. Oh no, host, you won’t be taken away by Wang. Chen, will you? Yu Meng flipped her phone around, and Wang Chen’s figure appeared on the screen. The live stream erupted in Wales. Oh no, Yu Meng is already Wang Chen’s person. I can be with the male god too, my legs are longer than hers. Whoa whoa, even if Yu Meng gets taken away, can you at least reveal what kind of identity Wang Chen has? So mysterious. maybe you meng is deliberately teasing us wanting to see our reactions by bringing wang chen on screen i don’t care you meng turn back to us we want to see you not wang chen on the other side gene core opened the live stream at wang chen’s signal fans who received the live stream notification immediately swarmed in wow gene core is also with wang chen oh no both goddesses have fallen for wang chen’s genes how can my male god be unworthy of these two internet celebrities stop arguing look at the scenery outside this is in luji as we right Damn, oh, a house in this. Location, isn’t this in Jung Wan Hai Jing number one? Jin Kuo and Yu Meng did not explain why they were together at Wang Chen’s place. They tacitly walked to the window, showing off the luxury of the Tianmu Palace and the view outside to their fans. Wang Chen entered Yu Meng’s livestream, and instantly, golden dragons flickered and colorful petals danced. Various gorgeous special effects appeared in the livestream, signaling Wang Chen’s arrival. Wang Chen directly sent out a thousand. Carnivals. Wuyo sent out Carnival Times 1000. This max level boss must be Wang Chen, right? That’s way too rich, 3 million just like that? Oh my, this money would be great for me, if Yu Meng can do it, I can too. After sending the gifts, Wang Chen shook his sore hands. He went to Jean Kaur’s livestream and sent another thousand carnivals. Wuyo sent out Carnival x 1000. The 6 million he just recharged was completely spent. Jean Kaur’s livestream caused another uproar. With countless netizens rushing in, Jean Kaur and Yu Meng couldn’t stop laughing, their faces full of smiles. Now they were finally famous across the internet, all thanks to Wang Chen, after finishing the gifs, Wang Chen looked at the lively live stream and said to the two women, everyone is so supportive, I can’t be without a gesture either, how about this? Two live streams, if the likes reach 100 million, one live stream will have a 10 million lucky bag. After thinking for a moment, Wang Chen continued, as long as you follow, you can claim it, no requirements. Oh my goodness, what kind of super tycoon has descended to earth, giving away 10 million lucky bags just like that? Wang Sikong and Qin Fen are totally. Weak in comparison. 100 million likes? Just 100 million. They really underestimate us. Brothers, don’t just stand there, get your fingers moving, I have to grab this opportunity. It’s over, I feel like my hand speed can’t. Compete with those silly netizens, my heart is so tired. As expected of a male god, just follow to grab, so generous. Brothers, let’s charge in as a toast. Gene Kuo and Yu Meng also looked at Wang Chen in surprise and said, Young. Master Wang, isn’t this a bit too much? It’s fine. Wang Chen waved his hand. It’s just 20 million after all. This amount of money is nothing to him. Before long, the likes in the two live streams surpassed 100 million. Wang Chen. Timely sent out a 10 million lucky bag. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 20 million, double cashback of 40 million. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 2,000 system points. Fans excitedly clicked on the lucky bag. Haha, I grabbed 50,000. Bro, you can’t compare, I grabbed 80,000. Why did I only grab a few hundred, I’m going to compete with you all. After Jin Kour and Yu Meng chatted a bit with the fans in the live stream, they turned off the live stream. At Wang Chen’s strong request, they started playing games again. In the evening, Wang Chen arrived at the snack stall at the entrance of the finance university. He got out of the back seat of the car. Jin Kour and Yu Meng also got out with him. Yu Meng curiously asked, Young Master Wang, why are we here? To eat. Wang Chen replied casually. Oh. Jin Kour and Yu Meng nodded. although they were curious why someone is wealthy. As Wang Chen would come here to eat, they still quietly followed him. Uncle Zhang was busy cooking snail noodles, the steaming mist blurred his vision. Antli was quickly setting the bowls and chopsticks, and when she casually looked up, she immediately saw Wang Chen. Old man, look quickly. Antli hurriedly tugged at Uncle Zhang’s sleeve, look, isn’t that Wang Chen? Uncle Zhang raised his head, squinted his eyes to take a look, and a smile immediately spread across his face, oh, it really is Wang Chen. This kid, it’s been a while since I’ve seen him. Uncle Zhang, Antli, long time no see. Wang Chen smiled and walked over to greet them. Uncle Zhang put down the spoon in his hand and walked out from behind the stall. Sizing up Wang Chen from head to toe. I said your aura is different, the one in the online videos is you, right? Uncle Zhang said with a grin. Yes. Wang Chen nodded. Antli also leaned over, her eyes landing on Jin Kuo and Yu Meng, curiously. Asking, who are these two? These are my friends, Jin Kuo and Yu Meng. I brought them here to try your snail noodles, I’ve been telling them for a long time that your snail noodles are especially delicious. Wang Chen introduced. Hello? Uncle Zhang, hello, Aunt Li. Jean Kour and Yumeng greeted politely with smiles. Good, good. Welcome, welcome. Wang Chen, you are our regular customer here, what flavor do you want today? Uncle will add extra ingredients for you. Uncle Zhang. Smiled widely. Wang Chen was very happy, Uncle Zhang didn’t treat him differently just because he was now popular online. Just make three servings of what I usually eat. Wang Chen said with a smile, and Li busily cleared a clean table and warmly. Invited Jean Kour and Yu Ming to sit down. Come, sit down. Our family’s snail noodles will definitely lead you unforgettable. Before long, Uncle Zhang came over with three bowls of snail noodles, and the steaming aroma instantly filled the air. Here you go, be careful, it’s hot. Uncle Zhang reminded with a smile. Wang Chen skillfully picked up his chopsticks, eagerly stirring the noodles. The familiar fragrance made his face bean with satisfaction. Jin Kura and Yu Meng looked at. The bowl filled with bright red chili oil, sour bamboo shoots, and tofu skin, slightly furrowing their brows. Clearly, they were somewhat overwhelmed by the strong smell. Haven’t you tried it before? One bite and you’ll know how delicious it is. Trust me, Wang Chen said with a smile upon seeing their reaction. We rarely eat spicy food. Jin Kura mustered her courage to pick up a bite of rice noodles and carefully placed it in her mouth. After chewing a few times, her eyes suddenly lit. Uh, wow, I didn’t expect it to be quite tasty. Sigh. Yu Meng also took a bite. Although she coughed lightly from the spiciness, she couldn’t help but nod in praise. At that moment, a few college students at the nearby table recognized Wang. Shannon began to whisper among themselves. Bro, isn’t that the super rich Wang Chen from online? It really is him. I didn’t expect to run into him here, he’s actually eating at a snack stall. Do rich people really eat at these roadside stalls? I heard Wang Chen threw around tens of millions in his live stream today, too bad I was in class at that time. The whispers gradually grew louder. Before long, some people gathered around, taking out their phones to snap pictures. Aunt Li, worried about disturbing Wang Chen’s meal, quickly stood up and said, everyone, please disperse, there’s nothing to take pictures of. It’s fine, if you all like it, you can also try Uncle Zhang’s snail noodles, they’re really amazing, Wang Chen, said with a carefree smile to the crowd. After saying that, he waved at the camera, and the surrounding people excitedly responded. This was the effect he wanted. With such a large online following, it would be a shame not to do something. Then. Wang Chen thought of this snail noodle shop he had always loved. With his help and relying on the delicious taste he believed it would easily become an internet sensation. After finishing the snail noodles, Wang Chen wiped his mouth. It’s your. Turn to shine now, open the live stream and give everyone a good introduction to the snail noodle shop we just ate at. You Meng and Jean Cor exchanged smiles. They were pros at advertising shops. You Meng and Jean Cor quickly adjusted their states and turned on their respective live stream equipment. The two appeared together on screen. Soon, countless netizens flooded into the livestream. Family, we just had a meal with young master Wang at this inconspicuous but super delicious snail noodle shop. Yu Meng was the first to sweetly smile at the camera. She turned the camera towards the busy Uncle Zhang and Aunt Li in the shop. Look, this is the owner of the snail noodle shop. Uncle Zhang’s snail noodles are absolutely amazing. That’s right, family. I was originally worried that the flavor would be too strong, but after one bite, I was completely hooked. Young Master Wang really has great taste, bringing us to such a wonderful place to eat, Jean Kaur chimed in. The audience in the livestream was instantly captivated, and the comments rolled in like snowflakes. Is this for real? Wang Chen is actually eating in such a down-to-earth place. Let me see what the snail noodles look like, that my male god. Recommends so highly. Streamer, take more detailed shots, I’m dying to try it. The shop is near my house, I’m going right now. Male god, wait for me. I’ve been eating at this shop since the start of the semester, and the taste has. Always been consistently good. Today, I specifically brought these two beautiful streamers here just to share it with everyone. Wang Chen walked in front of the camera and smiled, saying, Moreover, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Li are particularly genuine. If anyone is near the financial university, you must come and try it, you definitely won’t be disappointed. He pulled Uncle Zhang and Aunt Li over, and the two appeared a bit awkward in front of the camera. Oh, I didn’t expect so many people to pay attention to our little shop. Thank you, Wang Chen, and thank you all for your support, Uncle Zhang scratched his head. And Li was beside him, grinning from ear to ear, continuously expressing her gratitude. They didn’t even know how to introduce the shop’s specialties. As the live stream progressed, many viewers began to ask for the shop’s address. Wang Chen had Jumang place the shop’s location prominently in the live stream and humorously said, everyone can come with Piso. Mind, if it’s not good, you can come back and find me for an account, okay? The atmosphere in the live stream reached a climax, with everyone liking and sharing. Just based on Wang Chen’s words, I’m definitely going to this shop. Yeah, I just. snag several thousand in the live stream i must come and support wang chen’s delicious snail noodles if young master wang recommends it it must be trusted i’m checking the map right now to see when i can rush over haha i’m also a student at financial university i used to love eating at this shop and now it’s finally getting popular who knows we might have to line up for it in the future this shop is going to be a hit with wang chen’s traffic boost it will probably become a tourist hotspot soon wang chen saw that it was about time and took out his phone from his pocket he scanned to pay 1000 yuan Uncle Zhang was astonished to hear that Wang Chen paid 1000 yuan and hurriedly waved. His hands, saying, this won’t do. A bowl of snail noodles only costs a dozen yuan, the three of you eating to your fill would only be a few dozen yuan. How can I charge you so much? I know you have money, but when you come to Uncle Zhang’s place to eat, you shouldn’t do this. As he spoke, Uncle Zhang took out his phone, ready to process a refund. Uncle Zhang, listen to me, Wang Chen pressed down on Uncle Zhang’s hand and said sincerely, today’s live stream has made so many. People aware of this place, the business will definitely be booming in the future. You also know I’m not short on money. You make the snail noodles so delicious and have given me so many wonderful memories. So please don’t refuse. Why are you such a sincere kid? Thank you so much. Aunt Li’s eyes were red from emotion as she held Wang Chen’s hand, her voice slightly choked. With Wang Chen’s recommendation online, their little shop would surely not lack customers anymore. She was genuinely grateful to Wang Chen. Wang Chen smiled and patted Aunt Li’s hand, comforting her, Aunt Li, don’t say that. I truly hope the shop gets better and better. No matter where I go in the future, whenever I think of the taste of these snail noodles, I will come back to eat. At that moment, the crowd around them erupted in admiration. Young Master Wang’s vision is unmatched. Yeah, he has money but still remembers to support these small shops, that’s really rare. I feel like Wang Chin is. Different from other rich second generation kids. Don’t let Young Master Wang mix with those like Wang Si Tsong and Qin Fen, don’t lead him astray. Hiss that makes sense. Wang Chin waved to the crowd, greeted Uncle Zhang and Aunt Li. then turned to leave with Gene Kour and Yu Meng, heading towards the culinan. They got into the back seat. As the engine started, the culinan slowly drove away from the financial university snack street. Meanwhile, the entrance of the snail noodle shop remained lively. Countless people who heard that Wangchen was here came rushing over. People were discussing the scene that had just unfolded. The small snail noodle shop was destined to become a signature snack outside the financial university, attracting countless people to check in and take photos. Even later, many internet celebrities came here to live stream, further increasing the shop’s visibility. Because of Wang Chen’s appearance, countless shocking articles instantly appeared online. Top rich second-generation Wang Chen spotted at a street snail noodle shop. Is there more to the story? Shocking. Wang Chen takes two female streamers to eat street food late at night. Late at night, the new national. Husband Wang Chen was spotted on a date with two female streamers just eating snail noodles. Rumors of bankruptcy swirl. Wang Chen was seen at a street-side snail noodle stall, causing the small shop owner to tear up and tightly grasped his hand. What on earth happened? Countless bizarre comments flooded the internet once again. Videos of Wang Chen eating street-side snail noodles with Jin Kuo and Yu Meng were widely shared, leaving everyone astonished. Wang Chen was known to hang out with Wang Si Tsong and Xin Fen. Just today, he had lavishly thrown around tens of millions in a live stream. Yet tonight, he was merely eating snail noodles. Originally, Wang Chen had already garnered a significant fanbase online due to his handsome looks. Now, the video of him eating snail noodles at midnight attracted even more attention. People felt Wang Chen was particularly approachable, lacking the airs of those rich second-generation airs. Wang Chen, however, remained indifferent, allowing rumors to run rampant online. After returning to the Tianmu Palace, Wang Chen happily played games with Gene Kuo and Yu Meng all night long. Online, videos of Wang Chen at the auto show and Snack Street were crazily shared by netizens, skyrocketing to the top three on the trending list. Any title related to Wang Chen that was posted online would inevitably gain massive traffic. Countless internet celebrities and major media outlets rushed to report on him. Wang Chen, the young master, truly became a sensation across the internet while Wang Sitsong, the outdated national husband, was no longer of interest to anyone. The group of women who once adored Wang Sitsong turned their affections to Wang Chen. This admiration was different from the simple liking of Wang Sitsong’s wealth. Wang Chen had no flaws at all. Whether it was his looks, height, or family background, he completely overshadowed Wang’s seat zone, earning him a loyal fanbase. Many confident girls even publicly declared online that they wanted to be Wang Chen’s girlfriend. Yet, despite the online frenzy, Wang Chen did not make an appearance. The next day, he had his bodyguards send the two women home. Wang Chen took his beloved car for a spin around the company. Seeing nothing urgent, he rarely returned to the university for a full day of classes, causing a stir throughout the school. Everyone wanted to see what the most famous rich second-generation air online looked like. To avoid any stampede or crush, Principal John Weigua even arranged a team of security to maintain order around Wang Chen. Finally escaping the throng of students, Wang Chen managed to squeeze into the classroom. Under the teachers. Earnest guidance, Wang Chen rested his head on Ren Ningxian’s beautiful legs and slept the entire day. Fully rejuvenated, Wang Chen drove off in his beloved Ferrari, leaving behind a group of regretful university students. In a high end. private room of a club somewhere in the capital, a woman dressed in ancient attire played soothing melodies on a gucine. The air was filled with the fragrance of sandalwood and jasmine, creating a refreshing atmosphere. Two men sat across from each other at a tea table. A middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses said, Mr. Chun, would you like some tea? The man addressed as Mr. Chun picked up the teacup and took a sip. Dressed in simple casual wear, he appeared somewhat older, yet his extraordinary aura was hard to conceal. It seemed that time had left no marks on him. This Wang Chen is causing quite a stir online, but his company has been making significant moves in the industry lately. He doesn’t come with good intentions. With a paid-in capital of 100 billion, his strength cannot be underestimated, the man with gold-rimmed glasses remarked. This young master of the Wang family is probably not an easy opponent. There might be considerations from the Wang. Family behind this, Mr. Chen scoffed. It seems the Wang family is not satisfied with the heavy industry and wants to venture into the film industry as well. Is this momentum aimed at swallowing the entire film industry? Aren’t they afraid of losing a big tooth? Isn’t this against the rules? Should we contact a few other companies? The man with gold-rimmed glasses hesitated before speaking. What kind of stature does the Wang family have? As long as the old man is still around, who would dare to pull his beard? President Chun chuckled lightly and said, Wang Chun dares to invest 100 billion and is stepping into the film industry right away. It seems he is determined to succeed. It looks like our days are going to be tough. The man with gold-rimmed glasses sighed. President Chen said meaningfully, that’s not necessarily the case. Oh, what do you mean, President Chen? Since the Wang family hasn’t spoken up, let’s act as if we don’t know. Dealing. With that young brat Wang Chen should be a piece of cake, President Chen smiled. Isn’t that a bit risky? What if the old man from the Wang family gets angry? The man with gold-rimmed glasses frowned, we might suffer heavy losses. This is. Just normal business competition, what can the old man from the Wang family say? President Chen shook his head, the business world is like a battlefield. If you lack the ability and end up failing, what does that have to do with us? They can’t. Blame us for that. After all, it’s just a little over a hundred billion. Even if they lose it all, the Wang family won’t care much and won’t pay much attention. Who knows, Wang Jianguo might even feel that we helped educate his son. Whatever. Circle it is, it is what it is. If the heavy industry can’t satisfy the Wang family, they can go international, there are plenty of markets out there. We are just stirring up trouble in our small circles, making everyone uneasy. The man with. Gold-rimmed glasses immediately felt relieved, a smile spreading across his face, President Chen, your words have truly enlightened me, now I feel at ease. Rest assured, President Chen, if you need anything, just let me know, and I will fully cooperate with you. President Chen, I raise my cup in place of wine, toasting to you, wishing us all the best. Well said. President Chen raised his teacup and nodded, it all depends on whether that young Wang has real skills, I hope he doesn’t. Get scared and run away before I even make a move. Ha ha ha. in the center of Magic City, at the headquarters of Whale Capital, in Wang Chen’s office. Wang Chen sat in his chair, holding Long Lily on his lap, his hand unconsciously, resting on her long, silky black legs, feeling the delicate texture. He was getting a bit hands-on. Wang Chen’s brother couldn’t help but feel a bit excited. Long Lily suppressed Wang Chen’s mischievous hand, took a deep breath, and said, We’ve encountered various obstacles in our film investments. What’s going on? Wang Chen asked, somewhat surprised. The company has recently reached out to several valuable scripts on the market, Long Lily said with a helpless expression, but when Manager Chen approached the heads of those companies, most of them were quite friendly, saying they would consider it. Things went relatively smoothly afterward, and the contracts were almost finalized, but in the end, most of them rejected us. What was the reason? Did you investigate it thoroughly? Wang Chen asked thoughtfully. Not really sure, I just know that these people seem to have coordinated, rejecting us all at the same time. Long Lily was also puzzled as to why they had. suddenly backed out after good discussions. Should I have manager Chen contact those company heads again and try to negotiate? Wang Chen didn’t respond, lost in thought. Something felt off about this situation. Normally, as an investor wanting to fund a film, one would be treated like royalty. Who would refuse money coming to their door? Unless they were out of their minds, it was impossible to turn it down. If a few rejected for some other reason, that could be understood. But if most projects were rejected, that was unusual. Something strange was definitely going on. If there wasn’t someone targeting them, Wang Chen wouldn’t believe it even if he were beaten to death. Let’s not rush, have manager Chen probe the situation. First, Wang Chen said, tapping his fingers on the table. Okay, husband, Long Lily nodded, I’ll notify manager Chen right away. I’ll let you know as soon as there are results. I want to see which deity this is. Wang Chen sneered, falling. Into deep thought. This unknown enemy has some extraordinary strength. I wonder if manager Chen can handle it well. Don’t force him to resort to extreme measures. Long Lily remained silent, quietly pressing his temples. I’ve already notified President Liu to investigate this matter. I believe there will be results soon, Long Lily said softly. The entertainment industry. It seems simple, but the waters within are quite deep. Various power and money transactions are not uncommon. This incident is somewhat suspicious, and Long Lily immediately contacted President Liu, utilizing the resources of the industrial and commercial bank to investigate the cause. As a super VIP client of the bank, Wang Chen would receive their utmost. support for his career. Wang Chen nodded, not refusing. He had several hundred billion in deposits at the bank, it was time for them to contribute. He wanted to see if the person behind this could still hide their tracks under the bank’s scrutiny. Long Lily turned around and took out a stack of documents, handing them to Wang Chen. This is the company’s recent investment project, totaling 1.23 billion Huashia coins. Wang Chen took the materials and flipped through the documents. He saw. Listings for live streaming, new energy, and other projects. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 116,235,000, double cashback 23 ,247,000. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining system points, 116,235 points. Not bad, but. The investment in new energy can be a bit larger, Wang Chen nodded after reviewing the materials. The company’s investments also included Wang Sikong and others, and the money detected by the system matched his shares perfectly. Okay, Long Lily. Nodded. Ding ding ding. Suddenly, Wang Chen’s phone rang. Seeing it was Wang Sikong, he answered directly. Old Wang, what’s up? Wang Chen said. Wang Chen, I heard the company’s recent investments in the film and television industry have hit. A snag? Wang Sitsong’s voice came from the other end of the line. Yeah, still don’t know who’s behind it. I didn’t expect that with the few of us combined, these people would still dare to trip us up. They really must be tired of living. Wang Sikong scoffed. After learning about the company’s investment troubles in the entertainment industry, he wasn’t worried. With the scale of the entertainment industry, it wouldn’t be difficult for Wang Chan. Let me tell you, these people in the film and television industry are so self-important. They clearly lack strength but still feel good about themselves thinking they are all big shots. Our company has touched on all the projects in the market and someone is unhappy about it. They think we don’t understand the rules and that our behavior is too ugly. Those company heads naturally don’t dare to offend these big shots and can only give up on our company’s investments. Wang Sikong continued, My family has considerable. influence in this area, should I ask my old man for help? Not for now, Wang Chen said. Do you know who is targeting our company this time? After pondering for a moment, Wang Sikong replied, the information I’ve received is that it’s led by the Chen family from the capital. The Chen family has been rooted in the film and television industry for decades and they are the true overlords of the circle. They hold an irreplaceable position and resources are basically monopolized by them. The current head of the Chen family, Chen Yong Kai, is not an easy character. He is ruthless and has manipulated contracts for many newcomers, earning a notorious reputation in the industry. However, people in the film and television. Industry hold Chen Yongkai in great awe, showing respect and obedience on the surface, but secretly fearing his methods. After hearing Wang Sitsong’s introduction of Chen Yongkai, a cold smile flashed across Wang Chen’s face. This Chen Yongkai has been bullying others in the circle for too long. He thinks I’m easy to deal with. I want to see just how capable he really is. How about we get into esports together? My IG team just won the championship, and the esports industry has been booming these past two years. I believe entering the market now could yield significant profits, Wang Sikong suggested after a moment of hesitation. Esports is a no-go, we can’t avoid Tencent in this area, Wang Chen shook his head and replied. Tencent’s scale is too large, and its influence in the esports industry is not to be underestimated. The situation might be hard to navigate. Alright then, after chatting for a bit, Wang Chen hung up the phone. Right now, Douyin is just. Starting to develop and investing in short dramas isn’t quite the right time yet. Investing in movies is also a good option. However, he didn’t expect that simply putting money into investments would lead to being targeted. Although he acted high-profile, negotiating solely based on his substantial funds, he never bullied others with his power. Yet now, it seems he played by the rules while the Chen family broke them first, conspiring to push him out of the film and television industry. They didn’t even want him to have a sip of soup. Interesting, Wang Chen chuckled softly, rhythmically tapping his fingers on the table. Someone had come knocking at his door. Being a turtle hiding its head was not his style. If Jing Tuan Capital didn’t have any counterattacks, then forget about stepping out into the world, even in Hua Gua, it would be difficult to move an inch. Everyone would want to test the waters. No matter how much money there is, it’s still just paper tigers. If they wouldn’t let him sit at the table to eat, then no one should eat. Go call manager Chen for me, Wang Chen said to Long Lily. Long Lily nodded, without hesitation, and immediately walked out of the office. Moments later, there was a knock on Wang. Chen’s office door. Manager Chen walked in and respectfully said to Wang Chen, Mr. Wang, do you have any instructions? Contact the project leader who rejected our company’s investment again, Wang Chen handed him the documents in his hand. Mr. Wang, they don’t even want our money right now. Manager Chen hesitated but gritted his teeth and said. No one would turn down money, Wang Chen replied calmly, if they do, it just means our offer hasn’t reached their psychological price. Point. Make the offer so high that they can’t refuse. No one in this world would refuse money and turn down an investment. Wang Chen didn’t believe that with hundreds of billions in funds, he couldn’t establish himself in the film and television industry. Fortunately, he had the benefit of a double cashback clause. What he lacked the least was money. These people wanted to push him out of the film and television circle, so Wang Chen would play along with them. It all depended on whether. These people had the ability to make everyone in the industry for go profits. If that’s the case, Wang Chen would indeed admire them a bit. How much should we increase it to? Manager Chen was not surprised. Increasing the investment amount. was indeed a good strategy. Companies exist to make money, no one would be foolish enough to refuse money. No limit, just bid freely. I don’t believe no one will be tempted, Wang Chen said lightly. Manager Chen looked at Wang Chen in surprise. His face filled with shock. He knew Wang Chen had money, but he didn’t expect him to be so reckless. The investment industry conducts comprehensive risk assessments for every investment, estimating the potential profits. Below this figure, they would try to lower the price as much as possible to minimize investment risks and maximize returns. That’s why manager Chen was so surprised when he heard Wang Chen’s words. He thought Wang Chen was just angry and advised, Mr. Wang, isn’t this too much of a loss? Just do it with confidence, Wang Chen replied. For any film-related investments, as long as someone dares to compete with us, you follow them closely. Don’t worry about the money, raise the price fiercely. Wang Chen looked at him seriously and said, since they are targeting our company, then no one should have it easy. I want you to secure all the projects for me, and it must be exclusive. Is that clear? Understood. Manager Chen nodded, indicating he understood. However, Manager Chen felt somewhat helpless inside. Wang Chen’s actions clearly indicated that he did not want any other companies to survive. To swallow up a company like Whale Capital meant investing in all the projects on the market. Exclusively. This was a major taboo in the investment world. Exclusive investments inevitably offend other peers. Typically, a project involves multiple investors collaborating together. The influence of these peers should not be underestimated. Wang Chen was declaring war on them, leaving no opportunities for other companies, not even a sip of soup for others. If this continued, the film industry might completely isolate Whale Capital. This was already crossing the line. Manager Chen could understand why Wang Chen was doing this. After all, Wang Chen was so young having just taken such a large sum of money from his family to start a business only to be jointly ostracized by companies in the entertainment industry. It was only natural for someone like Wang Chen who had always sailed smoothly to feel angry after such a setback. As the general manager of the company, Chen Yu, having been supported by Wang Chen, felt it necessary to remind him. Just as he was about to speak, he was directly interrupted by Wang Chen. This task must succeed, failure is not an option. Wang Chen frowned and said flatly, you can use the funds as you see fit, but I need you to turn the situation around. I hope that when I come to the company. In a few days, you can give me good news. Otherwise, I will have to consider whether I should change managers. The words Wang Chen casually uttered made manager Chen break out in a cold sweat. All right, President Wang, I guarantee the task will be completed. Manager Chen did not doubt whether Wang Chen was trying to intimidate him. After spending time with Wang Chen, he had a few insights into his character. Wang Chen was generally friendly towards them, and many employees thought he was easy to talk to. But Manager Chen had reservations about that. Wang Chen had recently become wildly popular online, and the other shareholders in the company were figures like Wang Sikong and Qin Fun. His background was certainly higher than theirs. The education he received from a young age was not simple. Wang Chen could not possibly be as straightforward as he appeared. He simply chose to hide his tiger’s might and present a friendly face. But anyone who thought Wang Chen had a good temper was gravely mistaken. At 20, he was still young, and the youthful arrogance had not disappeared from Wang Chen. After leaving Wang Chen’s office, Manager Chen immediately began contacting the heads of relevant projects. Whale Capital had completely revealed its ferocious fangs. There was no hesitation at all. They were crazily increasing their investment offers, completely disregarding costs. Did someone not want to offend Chen Yongkai? Not accept the investment? Whale Capital would offer prices far exceeding market rates. And for those who were stubborn, they would appeal to reason and emotion. Just take the money to make movies. There was no need to worry about anything else. If there were any issues, let Chen Yongkai come to find Wang Chen. There was no risk involved for them. Companies that had been observing how Whale Capital would respond to this situation began to waver upon seeing this. Film investment was inherently a bottomless pit. The salaries of stars, special effects production, and later promotional distribution all required money. And the more, the better. Now, the conditions offered by Whale Capital were truly tempting. Manager Chen, along with his subordinates, was lobbying everywhere, no company head could resist the allure of money. Previously, due to the influence of big shots in the entertainment industry, most companies had aligned with them. Now, under the temptation of money, they began to privately engage. closely with manager Chen to discuss investment matters. In a dimly lit tea room, the aroma of tea wafted through the air. Manager Chen was having tea and chatting with the president of a medium-sized film company when a woman in a black bodycon, dressed slowly walked in. She wore a pair of silver high heels, her long hair slightly curled and her legs were straight and slender. She approached the tea table, bent down, and took out an exquisite cigar box .I am the box, several Patagas cigars, were neatly arranged. Her fingers glided gently between the cigars, ultimately selecting one, which she picked up delicately. Then, she took a cigar cutter and skillfully snipped off one end of the cigar. Mr. Zhang was captivated by this series of actions, momentarily setting aside his inner turmoil. He turned to look at the woman. Manager Chen also tilted his head slightly, intrigued. The woman brought the cigar to her nose, inhaling its scent, a look of intoxication appearing on her face. She then offered the cigar to Mr. Zhang, softly saying, Mr. Zhang, this is a premium cigar from abroad, take a whiff of its aroma. Mr. Zhang instinctively accepted it, mimicking the woman’s actions as he took a sniff, a faint tobacco scent, mingled with a unique woody aroma entering his nose. He couldn’t help but nod slightly. The beauty smiled, took out an exquisite lighter and lit the cigar before bringing it close. Once the tip of the cigar was evenly lit and fully burning, she moved the lighter away and extinguished the flame. Next, the beauty slightly lowered her head, bringing the cigar to her lips, gently parting her red lips to take a slow puff. Her posture was elegant and natural. Moments later, she exhaled the smoke, which carried wisps of fragrance. Mr. Zhang, this cigar has excellent draw. The beauty lifted her head, handing the cigar to Mr. Zhang, and said with a smile, there’s no feeling of blockage at all, and the blend of tobacco leaves is just right. Mr. Zhang nodded, took the cigar, and imitated the beauty, gently inhaling. The smoke swirled in his mouth before he slowly exhaled, the rich tobacco aroma instantly filling the tea room. Hmm, indeed not bad, Mr. Zhang couldn’t help but. Praise. Hearing Mr. Zhang’s compliment, the beauty smile grew even brighter as she turned to face Manager Chen. She selected another cigar from the exquisite box, her slender fingers holding it up for Manager Chen to see, Manager Chen, breathe. Steadily and give it a try. Manager Chen leaned slightly forward as the beauty lit the lighter, the flame evenly scorching the tip of the cigar until it burned uniformly. Manager Chen exhaled the smoke, a satisfied expression appearing on his face. For this premium cigar, the best flavor is achieved by inhaling every 30 seconds or so, the beauty added with a smile. Manager Chen blew out a smoke ring, Mr. Zhang, this is just the beginning, our future cooperation will surely not disappoint you. Your company’s strength is beyond doubt, it’s my honor to collaborate with Whale Capital, Mr. Zhang said with a smile. Amidst the curling smoke, the atmosphere in the tea room grew increasingly harmonious, and Mr. Zhang. quickly reached a series of investment agreements with Manager Chen. After Mr. Zhang left, Manager Chen received other company executives. With the professional service of this beautiful cigar steward and other pleasant activities, they all reciprocated by signing a series of contracts. There is a saying in Marx’s Capital that well articulates the characteristics and nature of capitalism. Capital fears turbulence and chaos, its nature is timid, but that is not its entire nature. Capital. Fears turbulence and chaos, but only when profits are insufficient or too low. Once profits are sufficiently abundant, capital will take risks. A profit of 10% is generally acceptable to capital. When profits reach 20%, capital becomes active. If profits reach 50%, capital will take risks. When profits reach 100%, it dares to trample on all human laws. If profits reach 300%, capital dares to commit any crime, even risking a turnaround. If war can bring substantial returns, capital may even incite war to achieve its goals. Chen Yongkai seems to hold a high position in the film industry. With a single word, he can unite people in the circle, isolating whale capital. But, Wang Chen is not worried at all. In fact, he finds it somewhat amusing. The so-called unity is just a joke. There will always be those who choose to collaborate with capital for their own benefit. Some have tasted the sweetness of it. Naturally, this creates an imbalance in others’ hearts. This group will inevitably fall apart on its own. There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. Sure enough, within a few days, a piece of news exploded in the film industry. A well-known director, with the surname Zhang, who had originally promised to join the boycott led by Chen Yongkai, suddenly signed a cooperation agreement with the capital. They were preparing to shoot a big-budget commercial film. This shift was like a giant stone, thrown into a calm lake, stirring up waves and sparking discussions within the circle. Upon hearing the news, Chen Yongkai was furious, no longer caring about his image. At a private gathering, he erupted in a tirade. However, his anger could not. stopped the chain reaction. More and more actors and producers, upon seeing the generous rewards received by the companies that first collaborated with the capital, began to waver. One day, an unexpected guest arrived at Wang Chen’s company. The receptionist girl was so excited that her voice trembled as she called Wang Chen, Mr. Wang, Dili Ri Ba. Dili Ri Ba is at the company entrance and wants to see you. What? Wang Chen thought he had misheard and was stunned for several seconds, before snapping back to reality and asking the receptionist to let her in. Moments later, the office door was gently pushed open, and Long Lily walked in with Dili Riba. She glanced at Wang Chen and said, Mr. Wang, Dili Riba is here. She muttered something about a vixen before turning to leave. Given Wang Chen’s temperament, she was probably going to add another sister to her collection. Wang Chen looked Dili Riba up and down. Today, she was wearing a simple yet stylish light blue dress that accentuated her perfect body curve. Her signature long hair was slightly curled, casually draped over her shoulders, with a few strands playfully falling beside her fair cheeks. Beneath her high-nose bridge, a pair of luscious, red lips curved slightly upward, exuding an exotic charm. A glimmer of gold flashed in Wang Chen’s eyes, and Dili Riba’s information immediately appeared before him. Name, Dili Riba, age, 26, height, 168 centimeters, charm, 95, physique, 89. Favorability, 65, skills, acting, advanced, singing, intermediate. The moment Dili Riba’s gaze met Wang Chen’s, her cheeks suddenly flushed a deep red, resembling a monkey’s bottom. Her beautiful big eyes stared straight at Wang Chen. Filled with curiosity. Hello, Mr. Wang, I am Dili Riba. Her red lips parted slightly, carrying a hint of barely noticeable shyness, a stark contrast to her usual confident demeanor in front of the camera. Please have a seat, Wang Chen smiled. Politely, gesturing for her to sit down. I wonder if you came to talk to me about something? Dili Riba sat on the sofa. I, I was sent by our boss. Dili Riba’s fingers unconsciously tugged at her dress hem, and it seemed she quickly, lowered her head after Wang Chen’s gaze. Wang Chen was just as handsome as he appeared online. How could there be such a handsome man in the world? Even someone like Dili Reba, who was solely focused on her career, felt a sudden urge to fall in. Love. Since her debut, the media had been reporting on her rumored boyfriends, including some with the surnames Han and Ting. But these were all just media fabrications. Some were even reports that the company had deliberately paid for, just to. Generate traffic. Oh, what did your boss ask you to do? Wang Chen asked, revealing a curious expression. It was obvious that Dili Riba’s boss could only be Yang Mi Mr. Wang, you are so popular online right now, even more so than Wang Sitsong. Many of my friends are discussing you, saying you are young and accomplished, not an ordinary person. Seeing you today, you are even more handsome than in the photos online. Dili Riba did not answer Wang Chen’s question but instead praised. Him, Wang Chen listened to her straightforward praise and couldn’t help but find it amusing, though his expression remained calm, Miss Riba, you flatter me. Those are just exaggerated claims from the outside world. However, both your figure and looks. are top-notch, and I believe your development in the entertainment industry will surely be thriving. Oh, young master Wang, please don’t flatter me. I’m not that great, Dili Reba’s eye sparkled with excitement. What did Wang Chen mean? Was. He complimenting her looks. Actually, I came here to discuss a collaboration with you. Our boss mentioned that your whale capital has recently invested in several major projects and I would like to get involved and give it a try. I hope you can give me a chance. After finishing, Dili Reba secretly raised her eyes to observe Wang Chen’s expression, looking incredibly cute. Wang Chen nodded slightly, a hint of contemplation flashing in his eyes, Miss Reba’s acting skills and popularity would be a great asset to any project. However, for the collaboration, it still requires your boss to communicate with me directly. Alright, I’ll have her come find you right now. Upon hearing this, Dili Reba’s eyes lit up and she leaned forward slightly. Good. Wang Chen found her eagerness somewhat amusing. Just wait a moment, Sister Yang will be here soon. Dili Ri Ba stood up and turned to walk outside. Wang Chen watched her retreating figure, a thoughtful expression, on his face. At this time, the rumors about Sister Yang were circulating online and she had been significantly affected by the various generated videos. Her career was also facing obstacles. In a few days, she would even be getting a divorce from her husband. Now, she had come to him. It was clear that she had noticed Whale Capital’s recent significant investments and was considering collaboration. Even the stunning Dili Ri Ba had come to Wang Chen. But it seemed this girl was. Still a bit dazed, foolishly smiling to herself. After Dealey Reba exited Whale Capital Investment Company, Limited, she looked around and took out a black mask to put on her face. She naturally walked towards the elevator. In no time, she arrived at. The first floor of the central building. Dealey Reba walked towards the lobby exit and soon reached a black Alfred van. She carefully glanced around and knocked on the car door. Sister me, I’m back. The car door immediately opened a crack and. Without hesitation, Dealey Reba got into the car. The Alfred is known for its luxurious and comfortable interior, spacious enough to easily accommodate several passengers. The door slowly closed behind Dili Reba, completely isolating her from the outside world. Sitting beside her was Yang Mi. Her fingertips unconsciously rubbed the sunglasses in her hand and her fiery red lips shimmered alluringly under the dim light. Reba, what did he say? Hehe, young master Wang should be quite satisfied with me, but he said that for the collaboration, you need to communicate with him in person. Dili Reba said cheerfully after sitting down. this wang chen certainly has quite the attitude yang mi leaned back against the soft seat her black silk dress rippling with the movement is this wang chen really as handsome as they say online she asked curiously he is really handsome and he doesn’t have much of an attitude he’s very gentle with people dili ri ba was taken aback her mind recalling wang chen’s handsome face her cheeks quietly flushing after the words left her mouth she felt her choice of words was too straightforward and hurriedly added of course he’s just okay yang mi shot her and knowing Glance, suddenly reaching out to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear. Reba, you’re too naive, you won’t be able to handle Wang Chen. Well capital behind him is very powerful, we must seize this opportunity to elevate the company. It seems it’s time for me to take action myself. Yangmi paused, her gaze lingering on Dili Reba’s face for a moment. A little brat, don’t you like pure looks? I just don’t believe you can resist my charm. Oh no. I actually forgot to get Wang Chen’s contact information. Dili Reba’s smile instantly froze, her hand suddenly covering her forehead. She stomped her foot in frustration, frowning as she said, it’s all my fault for being too nervous. At the time, my mind went blank, and I forgot such an important thing. Yang Li was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled lightly, her red nails tapping on the armrest of the chair, Ri Ba, you really make me both angry and amused. Don’t let me catch you with a lovestruck brain, you’re in a crucial period right now, your career is on the rise, and you absolutely cannot cause any scandals at this time. She had let Dili Ri Ba approach Wang. Chen to probe his attitude towards their joshing, but she never intended for Dili Riba to deliver herself to him. All right. Dili Riba pouted her moist, fair red lips, saying regretfully. Yang Mi nodded, stood up, and unzipped the silk dress at her waist. The dress slipped down, revealing her graceful back. She took out a wine-red DP bodycon dress from the car. As Yang Mi slipped the gown on and zipped it up, the DP neckline accentuated her. Proud curves. The slit at the ham extended all the way to the top of her thighs, becoming more revealing with her movements. Yang Mi brushed her long hair to one side, exposing her long, fair neck, making her even more enchanting. Ri Ba, come help me put on the Wang Chen was amazed. No wonder she was a top star in the entertainment industry, she was even more charming in person than on television. Those long legs were simply deadly. Yang Mi’s personal. Information also appeared before Wang Chen’s eyes. Name, Yang Mi age, 32 height, 166 cm charm, 94 physique, 85 favorability, 62 skills, acting, advanced, singing, advanced. After seeing Yang Mi’s personal information. With his own eyes, Wang Chen couldn’t help but sigh. It had to be Yang Mi. At 32, she was still so captivating. This wasn’t just Wang Chen’s personal feeling. The gasps and discussions from the employees outside the door were still coming in. Yang Mi had dominated the entertainment industry for over 20 years. Since her breakout role in Red Powder Family, she had been the undisputed most popular female star on television. In 2015, she even gambled with capital and became a capital player herself. A true real-life leading lady. Recently, Yang Mi had been hit hard by various scandals. Her husband had even proposed a divorce. Wang Sitsong, this infatuated admirer, had already announced online that he would marry her immediately if she divorced. He was the son of the richest man in Hua Gua, a national husband. For an ordinary person, it would only deepen their obsession with Yang Mi. This was enough to prove that Yang Mi’s charm was something that ordinary people couldn’t resist. Wang Chen looked at Yang Mi in front of him, his eyes filled with curiosity. A classic video plot echoed in his mind. The plot of finding. A husband. Yangmi seemed to sense Wang Chen’s gaze, her expression natural. She reached out and gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, her smile growing warmer. Mr. Wang, I am Yangmi. I came today to discuss a big. Business deal with you. Hello. Wang Chen shook Yangmi’s small hand, feeling the softness of her grip. I wonder what big business we are discussing. First, you sent Dili Reba, and now you come in person. I feel deeply. Honored. Wang Chen sat down in front of her and said lightly. Yangmi visiting so soon was indeed a bit unexpected for him. Recently, he had been making significant investments with Whale Capital, attracting many project parties to approach him, but it was the first time a star had come to him directly. Yangmi sat on the sofa, her eyes sparkling. A faint smile played on her lips. Mr. Wang is truly accomplished at a young age, starting a business while still in school. Yangmi smiled and said, actually, we’ve met before. I wonder if you recognized me last time. We’ve met? Wang Chen was a bit curious, with his memory, it was impossible to have met someone and forgotten them. But this was indeed the first time he had seen Yang Mi, it’s normal for Mr. Wang not to remember, Yang Mi laughed, covering her mouth. I also have a house in Zhongliang Hai Jing number 1, just below your apartment. You should have figured it out by now, so that woman was you. Wang Chen suddenly realized, the woman he had encountered in the garage while dropping Karina off, who was wrapped up tightly, was Yang Mi. No wonder she looked so familiar. Last time. Wang Chen sighed, what a coincidence, you actually live right below me. I didn’t see you had a house here online. A cunning rabbit has three burrows. To avoid being disturbed by paparazzi, it’s quite normal to buy. A few more properties, isn’t it? Yang Mi nodded and smiled. Wang Chen agreed. With the capabilities of those paparazzi, they really couldn’t be stopped in an ordinary community. Zhongliang Hai Jing number one was the top community in. The entire magic city and the property management was particularly strict about protecting the privacy of the owners. There was no need to worry about paparazzi entering the community. However, this high price was something. Only top stars like Yang Mi could afford. Ordinary small stars wouldn’t even dare to think about it. Mr. Wang looks even more handsome than in the videos online. Yang Mi’s lips curled up slightly, a glint of mischief flashing. In her eyes as she softly said, that hasty glance in the garage left a deep impression on me. How about this, Mr. Wang comes to my company and I’ll package you for your debut. With your looks, I believe that within a month. You’ll become a top idol in Hua Gua, and in three months, you’ll be stepping out of Asia and into the world. Yangmi said, her eyes sparkling with excitement as she looked at Wang Chen. Wang Chen’s physique and appearance were, indeed the most handsome she had ever seen in her career. With just Wang Chen’s looks, singing and acting were unnecessary. As long as he stood in the center of the stage, he would be the most dazzling one. In her eyes, Wang Chen was born for this line of work. It would be a shame if he didn’t debut. Forget about debuting, Wang Chen said. He was only a rich second generation, why would he want to suffer in the entertainment industry? Miss Yang, you’re much more beautiful than on TV. Mr. Wang, do you think I’m pretty? Yang Mi, hearing Wang Chen’s refusal, didn’t mind and playfully pouted. As she spoke, she leaned slightly forward, revealing her ample bosom. The depths of her allure were laid bare before Wang Chen. He felt no embarrassment at all, his eyes wandering around. Since it was right in front of him, why not take a look? Miss Yang not only shines on television but is even more radiant in. Reality, Wang Chan replied with a smile. Although Yang Mi wasn’t as beautiful as his other women, she had a unique charm that was truly one of a kind. Hearing compliments from Mr. Wang is really delightful, Yang Mi said, her. Face showing no shyness, only happiness. Unlike that Wang Sikong, who never says anything serious. What did he say? Wang Chan raised an eyebrow and asked. Yang Mi frowned, helplessly saying, that guy talks big online every day. Saying he wants to marry me, but apart from his empty words, I’ve never seen him take any action, he just looks for little internet celebrities. Fortunately, I don’t like that greasy middle-aged man. If he looked like you, I probably would have killed him by now. What a scumbag. Let’s not talk about him, it’s nauseating. Yangmi’s face showed some frustration, then she looked at Wang Chen with a smile and said, compared to that greasy middle-aged. Man, I’m much more interested in young master Wang. Her big, watery eyes fluttered like they had magic. They were captivating. She exuded an alluring aura of a mature woman, especially with the halo of a star around her. It’s almost awakened Wang Chen’s inner rogue. Wang Chin stroked his chin thinking that Yang Mi should still have a few days before her divorce. Should he take this opportunity? Wang Chin smiled and said, Miss Yang, to maintain. Such a mindset at this critical moment is truly not easy. It’s just a small matter, Yang Mi replied, her expression unchanged. She still wore a bright smile, making Wang Chin marvel at her resilience. She was indeed a woman who had risen from the bottom. The video circulating online was a massive hit, and for someone like him to directly expose her wounds, a regular woman would probably break down. Yet here she was, chatting with him nonchalantly, her demeanor calm, even wanting to tease him. Yang Ni had a strong psychological quality. You know this is just media gossip, but my husband can’t handle the pressure and wants to divorce me. I’m under a lot of pressure too. Yang Ni smiled and said, I’m about to be single again. I wonder if young master Wang would consider me, with your looks, you must not lack for girlfriends. If young master Wang could see me, I wouldn’t have to work so hard in. This life, always on guard against being schemed against. As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes turned red and her face was filled with grievance. She slightly lowered her head, her eyelashes trembling. Then, a tear. Slowly slid down her fair cheek, glistening like a pearl under the light. Filled with a sense of fragility, Wang Chen looked at the dramatic Yang Mi with great interest, feeling somewhat speechless. Is this what a top actress is? Like? Crying on cue. It’s the first time someone dared to tease him in front of Wang Chen. Especially since Yang Mi still acted so relaxed after learning about Wang Chen’s terrifying background. There was not a hint of fear or restraint in her demeanor. No wonder she had risen to power, Yang Mi. If it were an ordinary young person, they would truly struggle to handle her antics. Seeing Yang Mi’s pitiful appearance, who could resist feeling heartbroken? You are a big star, as long as you are willing, I’m sure there are plenty of wealthy people willing to help you. Wang Chin smiled slightly, at least Wang Sitsun would be more than happy for you to seek him out. It seems. That young master Wang is not interested in me anymore. Yangmi casually twirled her long hair behind her ear, her movements carrying a hint of unintentional allure. What you said, young master Wang, really hurts my feelings. Wang’s seat song comes from a prominent family, but in my eyes, he doesn’t even compare to you, not even a single hair. After saying this, she lifted her gaze slightly, her eyes shimmering with just the right amount of sorrow, making Wang Chen’s heart skip a beat. Wang Chen leaned back on the leather sofa, his fingers rhythmically tapping the armrest, a playful smile curling at the corners of his mouth. Miss Yang, with a mouth like yours, it’s no. Wonder you thrive in the entertainment industry, you almost made my heart blossom. What good is flattery if it’s just to dismiss someone for being old? Yangni suddenly stood up, her figure graceful as she walked a few steps. To the floor to ceiling window. She tilted her head slightly, her voice tinged with a hint of loneliness. Young Master Wang, you only see my glamorous surface, but you don’t know the difficulties I face behind the scenes. In this cutthroat entertainment industry, without a backing, I could be trampled into the mud at any moment. My husband couldn’t handle the pressure of public opinion and wants a divorce, those media outlets out there would love. Nothing more than to tear me apart. Wang Chen’s gaze fell on Yang Mi’s silhouette. This woman was indeed not simple, in just a few sentences, she had painted herself as a pitiful victim. Yang Mi suddenly turned and sat back down. On the sofa. Alright, let’s not talk about that anymore, you unromantic man. Yang Mi sighed, let’s discuss work matters instead. Sure. Wang Chen nodded, a smile on his face. He didn’t take Yang Mi’s words seriously. This. Woman was not that simple, anyone who took her words at face value would be a fool. If one wanted to gain something, they had to pay a price. If Dili Riba said these things to Wang Chen, he would really have to consider where to take her for dinner tonight. However, Miss Yang, I’m quite surprised that you could still support our small company. Wang Chen smiled. If your whale capital is a small company, then what is my joshing, a studio? Your company has over a hundred billion in actual capital and the shareholders are also the wealthy heirs like Wang Sitzong and Qin Fun. if it weren’t for those people in the entertainment industry relying on their seniority and failing to see the situation clearly who in the whole of huagua would dare to target your company yang mi’s eyes were filled with resentment as she said you’re being overly modest that’s just pretending isn’t it it’s just a little over a hundred billion wang chin shook his head pouring a cup of tea for yang mi smiling looking across the country and then the world which top investment bank doesn’t have cash flows in the hundreds of billions or even trillions if you don’t have a few hundred billion you wouldn’t even dare to say you run an investment bank In front of those investment bank owners, my little over a hundred billion doesn’t count for much. It’s hardly worth mentioning. In the entertainment industry, Wang Chen’s hundred billion might be considered a fortune. But in other fields, it was merely a small sum. He didn’t really believe that Yang Mi had confidence in his. Actual capital of over a hundred billion, what she was interested in was merely his identity alongside Wang Sitsong and others, their identities were what they were, making the amount of money seem less important. Good tea. Yang. Ni lifted her cup, took a sip, and said in her sweet, cloying voice, how can those investment banks compare to you? Haven’t you seen how the entertainment industry has been turned upside down by your whale capital? Just stepping into this industry, and you’ve already formed a whale-like swallowing force, even if they band together, they can’t stop your investments. When you throw in real money, who wouldn’t be envious? Yang Ni smiled and said, so, I’m not just here because I see you throwing money around, I came to seek your favor. You don’t hide it at all, Wang Chen replied, not surprised. Right now, countless people in the entertainment industry were vying for Whale Capital’s investment, but they couldn’t even get in line. Unfortunately, some of the major companies had yet to take action. Yang Mi’s visit was quite timely. Now those small companies are about to blow up your companies. Phone, the slightly larger ones are still watching, hesitating. Yang Mi sighed, as soon as I heard about your big investment plans, I came here immediately to show my sincerity. Aren’t you afraid of the Chen family blaming? You? Wang Chen asked. What is there to be afraid of? Yangmi crossed her legs, her skirt sliding down to the top of her thighs, and said nonchalantly, I can barely afford to eat, how can I care about so much? For us small companies, our survival is in your hands, you can fight all you want, but we little shrimp can’t take it. I have hundreds of employees waiting for their meals. It’s not easy for me, I just want a secure investment and make my TV show well. Wang Chen leaned back in his chair, his gaze appraising Yangmi, a vague smile playing at the corners of his mouth, Miss Yang, you make it sound so easy. The Chen family has been deeply rooted in the entertainment. industry for many years, with connections all over. If my investment causes you to offend the Chen family, your future days might not be easy. If you’re not afraid, what should I be afraid of? The Chen family probably won’t have the ability to target me anymore. Yangmi looked at Wang Chen, her eyes growing more alluring, if the Chen family offends you, they won’t even know how to handle it, they probably won’t have the energy to care about me. Afterward, rather than hanging on that shaky tree of the Chen family, I might as well take this opportunity to board your fast ship. Yang Mi paused, pulled out a document from her bag, and handed it to Wang Chen, please take care of our joshing in the future. This is the planning for a TV drama project our company is preparing, like fire like song, with a novel adaptation and a fresh theme. I’ve also contacted the cast, they are all talented and popular actors. If we can get Whale Capital’s investment, this drama is sure to be a hit. And here are a few scripts for you to look at. Yang Mi, having been in the entertainment industry for over 10 years, had an exceptionally high emotional intelligence. Her words clearly stated her position and even praised Wang Chen profusely. Wang Chen took the document and began to flip through it. In 2018, Yang Mi had just completed a bet with capital last year. Now she could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Having faced setbacks in life had also affected the company’s development and stock price. Her eagerness to seek investment showed that she recognized the immense potential and energy of Wang Chen’s company. She was looking for a strong backing. While seeking support, she was also there to promote stars like Dilly Reba. Yang Ni’s ability to stand out among so many stars in the entertainment industry, establish her own company, and ultimately become capital was not merely due to luck. Just the fact that she was willing to risk offending industry bigwigs by firmly aligning with whale capital showed her vision and ambition. She, wouldn’t miss any possible opportunity. Yang Ni’s face still bore a bright smile, eagerly awaiting Wang Chen’s response, but inside, she couldn’t help but feel a bit wearied. I in recent years, outsiders saw Yang Ni thriving, running. a company in fulfilling a betting agreement, earning more money than many could make in a lifetime. But the heartache behind it all was known only to her, especially now that she had just caught her breath, only to be heavily slandered by the media. Her husband was also in the midst of a divorce with her. Both love and career had taken a hit. All she wanted now was for the company to develop steadily and to secure custody of her daughter. How? Much investment is needed? Wang Chen nodded after reading the several scripts in his hand. These scripts had been validated by the market in later years, and the investment was of the type that guaranteed profit. It all depends. On whether you want exclusivity, Yang Mi straightened her posture and said seriously, the amount needed for exclusive versus non-exclusive rights is definitely different. What do you think? Wang Chen replied lightly. Now, that whale capital was at war with Chen Yongkai, there was naturally no intention to give other companies any discounts. It was just right to swallow it all. Yang Mi understood and said, the TV series Fire Like Song has a higher. Cost due to the complicated costume and set design, along with post-production promotional expenses, it will require about 5 billion. But I have high hopes for this drama and believe it can achieve good results. If Mr. Wang is interested in the other scripts together they would total 9 billion, which is sufficient. This price was still reasonable and she didn’t take advantage of Wang Chin just because he had money. Fire like Song had already achieved good results in the past. The costumes of the characters and the professional finger techniques of the guqin performance were restored, along with authentic guqin sound effects, earning a great reputation. No. Problem. Wang Chen didn’t haggle. Now was the time to compete with Chen Yongkai, and he could afford to give Yang Mi a bit of profit. He didn’t care about this amount of money. With this large investment, he believed that those big companies in the entertainment industry wouldn’t be able to resist. A look of surprise appeared on Yang Mi’s face. She didn’t expect Wang Chen to agree to her request so readily, without even discussing the price. Truly a. Top tier rich second generation. This kind of decisiveness was not something ordinary people could compare to. So when can we sign the contract? Yang Mi’s smile became even more pronounced. You can have your company’s people. Coordinate now. The sooner we sign, the sooner the project can start, Wang Chen said with a faint smile. Yang Mi immediately took out her phone, without hesitation, and dialed her assistant, notify the legal department and the. project team to rush to whale capital immediately we have finalized the cooperation with mr wang and can prepare to sign the contract an hour later after manager chen signed the contract with the head of joshing company the nine billion funds were transferred over they also sent someone to check the usage of each fund normally in the entertainment industry funds are transferred in batches but wang chen figured young me wouldn’t dare to pull any tricks plus there were company people watching to avoid trouble he transferred the nine billion directly ding The system detected that the host spent $850,500,000 and the double cashback is 1-701-0000. Ding! Congratulations! To the host for obtaining 85,050 system points. Wang Chen’s phone buzzed with a text message and he took it out to see, as expected, it was from the bank. Industrial and commercial bank reminds you that your account. has been credited with 850 ,500,000 yuan and your account balance is 37,163 ,391,456. Wangchen looked at the over 300 billion displayed on his phone without surprise, feeling quite calm inside. It was just a mere 3 .172 billion. Pleasure working together. Wangchen casually placed his phone on the coffee table and shook hands with Yangmi Mr. Wang, pleasure working together. You’re handsome and decisive in your actions. It’s no wonder you make money, Yangmi said with a smile. This cooperation went so smoothly thanks to your trust. Rest assured, I will strictly control every aspect and have someone report the project progress to you in real time. It’s fine, I trust you, Wang Chen replied with a faint smile, Yang Mi’s eyes flickered as she tentatively said, By the way, young master Wang, what do you think of our company’s Dili Ri Ba? Pretty good, why? Wang Chen replied, puzzled. It’s like this, if you think this girl Dili Ri Ba is good, could you give her a chance? If there are any good scripts, consider her for it. This matter is simple. Wang Chen finally understood that Yang Mi meant for Dili Reba to come to him first, I’ll mention it to manager Chen shortly, and if there’s a suitable script, I’ll recommend her to the director for an audition. Thank you so much, young master Wang. Yang Ni was overjoyed. Coming to Wang Chen’s company today was truly the right decision. Not only had they secured a 900 million investment, but Dili Reba also left a good impression on Wang Chen. With the development trend of whale capital, it would sooner or later become a leader in the industry. With Wang Chen’s words, Dili Riba’s future path would be much smoother. With a good script, the rest would depend on how far she could go. Ah, I really regret being born too early. If I were around your age, I would really want to pursue you, Yang Mi said, looking at Wang Chen with a helpless sigh. If only young master Wang were an ordinary person, then I could use the money in my hands to support a younger brother. Such a handsome younger brother, it’s really tempting. You could try supporting me now, I wouldn’t mind eating a bit of soft rice, Wang Chen smiled. This married woman really dared to. say anything, her expression particularly natural. She even mentioned supporting him. Yangmi was taken aback at first, then covered her mouth in chuckle, a glint of mischief flashing in her eyes, young master Wang really knows. How to joke. Someone of your status, how could you lower yourself to eat soft rice? However, if you really have that idea, I could consider it, her tone was half serious, her gaze intentionally or unintentionally scanning. Wang Chen. There was no hint of embarrassment. What you said is quite distant. In my eyes, status and position are just illusions. As long as we get along well, some things are not impossible, Wang Chin shrugged, smiling nonchalantly. And Miss Yang, aren’t you underestimating your own charm? Yang Mi’s expression stiffened a bit as she realized that Wang Chin was so young, clearly in great shape. It was the peak of demand. He couldn’t really be interested in a 30-year-old woman like her. Yang Mi dared not tease Wang Chin any further and quickly said, Young Master Wang, I must say, chatting with you is quite interesting. Talking to you makes me feel much more relaxed. Since Miss Yang finds it easy to chat with me, why don’t we talk a bit more? After all, the project funds are already in place, and you, as the boss, can relax a bit, right? Wang Chen nodded, staring at Yang Mi, with a half smile. You’re a busy person, I wouldn’t dare take up too much of your time. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave. Yang Ni’s heart tightened as she spoke honestly. Wang Chen’s gaze lingered on Yang Mi, making her heart tremble. Wang Chen then slowly said, see you next time, bye bye. Yang Ni forced a smile, hurriedly responded, and stood up. She rushed towards the exit, not daring to look back, fearing another encounter with Wang. Chen’s half-smiling gaze. Once she entered the elevator, Yang Ni finally breathed a sigh of relief. A nearby company employee looked at her curiously and she realized she had lost her composure. She turned to them and smiled, putting on her sunglasses. Then she raised her hand to tidy her hair. After leaving the central building, Yang Ni calmed her emotions and got into the alpha. The driver, seeing this, directly started the car and drove away. Li Riba leaned forward, her eyes full of anticipation, and asked, Sister Mi, how did it go with young Master Wang? Did you secure the investment? Once I step in, I must secure it. A full 900 million investment, young. Master Wang is really generous. Not at all like those stingy people. Yang Mi took off her sunglasses, a hint of pride flashing in her eyes. And young Master Wang also promised that if there’s a good script, he would recommend you for an audition. Sister Yang, you’re amazing. Now we’re set. Dilly Reba was so excited she almost jumped up, gripping Yang Mi’s arm tightly. Now, no matter how much noise is made outside, it won’t matter. Yang Mi smiled and patted her hand, not as optimistic as Dilly Reba. Reba, young master Wang is not that simple. After talking to him today, I always felt there was something behind his words and his gaze is even more inscrutable. I can’t shake. The feeling that he has ulterior motives. Sister Yang, who cares what he’s after? As long as he can provide us with resources and help me land a good role, that’s all that matters. Dilly Reba blinked her beautiful big eyes and said nonchalantly. Yang Mi shook her head helplessly. You’re still too naive. In this entertainment industry, there’s no such thing as unprovoked help. What seems like kindness is just mutual exploitation. Yang Mi secured a 900 million investment from Whale Capital and this news spread through the entertainment circle at an explosive speed. With such a large company, it’s hard for Yang Mi to make any moves without attracting attention. Moreover, the spread of this news was also fueled by Wang Chin behind the scenes. Yang Mi understood Wang Chen’s intentions and actively cooperated with the dissemination of the news, further confirming its authenticity. Small companies in the industry feared offending the Chen family and Chen Yongkai, worried about being targeted. Yang Mi didn’t take it to heart. Not to mention she was the boss of the company, she had the confidence to not fear anyone. Furthermore, after years of dealing with the essence of the investment circle, Yang Mi understood the nature of capital even better. Capital is profit-driven. Even if they are at each other’s throats today, they could shake hands tomorrow. Just like sharks sensing blood, once they detect profit, they will swarm in. Moreover, Wang Chen’s company already had ample cash flow. No one would turn down money. Wang Chen’s family background also ensured that whale capital would take root in the entertainment industry, and no one could drive them away, not even the Chen family who held absolute power in the industry. It’s hard to say, in future confrontations, they might even face defeat and decline. Yang Ni only cared about whether she could make money. The stronger the backing, the more she needed to curry favor with them. Sure enough, it wasn’t long before the tide turned completely. The bosses of those large companies no longer hesitated. They were also envious of Yangmi securing such a large investment. A good script requires good actors and good post-production, including promotion and distribution, to achieve the highest ratings. This requires sufficient funds to be poured in. Without a large sum of money, no matter how good the script is, it won’t get good ratings. But if the money is sufficient, even if the script quality is a bit lacking, it could still be revived with ratings and box office soaring. These big companies were tempted, not to mention the small ones. More and more companies began to practice whale capital, hoping to get an opportunity to invest. Because there were just too many people coming in. Manager Chen had completely moved away from the initial indiscriminate acceptance, even the situation of premium investments, and was now carefully selecting projects, only the good. Ones were accepted, not the bad ones. Moreover, based on his memories from his past life, Wang Chen provided him with a list of scripts that were bound to be hits for investment. These high-quality projects were swallowed whole. by Whale Capital, and they were all exclusive investments. In a short period, 36 billion had been invested. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 3,402,000,000 with a double cashback of 6,804,000,000. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 340,200 system points. After spending so much money, the system promptly refunded the amount back to his account. This feeling was simply amazing, especially when the projects he invested. In were completed and aired, that was when the real money-making began. It was possible to multiply the returns several times over. For ordinary companies, investing in projects was like panning for gold and shit, worrying about weather. The lead or supporting actors would be exposed for scandals before the show aired. Just breaking even would be considered a stroke of luck. But Wang Chen was different, the memories of his past life were his greatest assurance. For investment, he could completely avoid those trash scripts and the capital he invested in were all projects that could either make money or at least break even. He was eager to see what tricks Chen Yongkai had left to isolate him from the entertainment industry. Things were getting interesting. Countless people in the entertainment circle were watching the spectacle. Their attention was focused on the Chen family and Chen Yongkai, curious, to see how he would respond to Wang Chen’s counterattack. However, Chen Yongkai seemed to have shrunk back. He made no moves at all, allowing Wang Chen’s whale capital to conquer the entertainment industry, investing in one project after another. This incident even became a sensational topic reported by the media online. It was wildly shared on apps like Doin and Weibo, leaving countless onlookers astonished. Wang Chen was indeed the top second generation. Rich kid in Hua Gua, just one action stirred up a storm in the entertainment circle. With the heated discussions among netizens, the related topics surged in popularity exponentially. Wang Chen swallows the entertainment industry. Chen Yongkai, relying on his seniority in the circle, is now getting a swollen face. Is there more to Wang Chen’s investment in Yang Mi’s company? Insider News The video circulating online reportedly features. Wang Chen is the male lead, and Yang Mi is after that 9 billion sky-high investment. In the central building, the reception room of Whale Capital had been in a state of constant fullness these days. Manager Chen, Li Kai, and other company officials were extremely busy, often too rushed to even eat. Wang Chen stood in front of the panoramic skylight in the office, overlooking the scenery of the magic city outside. Chen Yong Kai was quite something. He was really cowardly. Wang Chen thought that with such a big move from whale capital, Chen Yongkai would be desperate enough to pull some other tricks. But after waiting and waiting, he still didn’t see any counterattack from him. Wang Chen, who initially wanted to play around with Chen Yongkai, felt bored and disappointed. This is boring, is this all he can do? Wang Chen shook his head. He had been quite high profile during this time. Logically. Speaking, given their status, these people should have known his true identity by now. Yet, in this situation, they still dared to suppress whale capital. This proved that the Wang family wasn’t as terrifying in their eyes, and, clearly, someone was backing them up. The Chen family wouldn’t have such audacity otherwise. But now, with no follow-up response, it was a bit strange. Wasn’t this a case of starting strong but ending weak? Just a few days ago, they were acting like it was a big deal, and now they were holding back some big move. At that moment, the phone on the desk rang. Wang Chen came back to his senses and answered directly. What’s the matter? The suite. Voice of the receptionist came through the line, Mr. Wang, a person claiming to be Chen Yongkai is here to see you. Should I bring him in? Chen Yongkai? Wang Chen was somewhat surprised. What was Chen Yongkai up to? Instead of continuing to counterattack whale capital he had come to his company. Surely he wasn’t here to beg for mercy. Did he come alone? Wang Chen instinctively asked. Yes, Mr. Wang, he’s the only one. Alright, bring him in. After hanging out, Wang Chen was momentarily unsure of what Chen Yongkai was planning. After pondering for a moment without any clues, Wang Chen shook his head and stopped overthinking. He settled into his office chair, not long. After, there was a knock on the door. Long Lily pushed it open, followed by a middle-aged man in simple casual wear, looking quite refined. This was Chen Yong Kai. Mr. Wang, I’ve long admired you. I am Chen Yong Kai, and I believe. You know a bit about me as well. Chen Yong Kai wore a faint smile as he quickly walked up to Wang Chen, extending his hand and saying, Mr. Wang, you truly are a remarkable talent. Today’s event is indeed well deserved. At such, A young age, you’ve managed to build your company so well on your first venture. You flatter me, Wang Chen replied, shaking his hand with a casual tone. Mr. Chen, what brings you to my small company today? Surely, you’re not here because you find it impossible to deal with whale capital, are you? Wang Chen remained seated, showing no intention of standing up. How could I dare to think that? Mr. Wang, you’re overthinking it, there might be. Some small misunderstandings between us, Chen Yongkai chuckled, not taking it to heart, and found a chair to sit in front of Wang Chen. Small misunderstandings? I’m not so sure about that, Wang Chen scoffed, leaning back, slightly in his chair. Mr. Wang, I admit that our previous competition in the market was a bit aggressive, but it was a matter of necessity. It was just to make a living, Chen Yongkai smiled. Is that the reason you want to push me out of the entertainment industry? Who said that? Chen Yongkai looked bewildered. The country has repeatedly emphasized the need to avoid industry monopolies. The entertainment industry has always welcomed investments from all sides, adhering to the principle of making money together for sustainable development. Who is so bold as to say they want to drive Mr. Wang’s whale capital out? I think they really don’t want to live anymore. Our Hui Guang, media company, Limited, as the leader in the entertainment industry, has always welcomed major investors. With a cake, everyone can share. This is how we can attract enough funds to develop the entertainment industry, it will thrive. Better. I especially welcome capable companies to come in, so I can breathe a little easier and worry less. Moreover, Mr. Wang, your whale capital is strong. Who would dare to say such things to you? When out and about. Being friendly brings wealth, with money, everyone can earn together. I never engage in boycotting others, you know, the entertainment industry is a big melting pot, with all kinds of people. There are always some who love to stir up trouble, but it’s not serious. Ha ha ha. Wang Chen couldn’t help but burst into laughter upon hearing his words. He really had a way with words. He acted quite innocent. With his speech, he completely shifted the blame. Away, subtly accusing Wang Chen of violating national regulations and monopolizing. Wang Chen had previously thought that being friendly would bring wealth and that everyone could earn together. But he never considered swallowing. All these projects. Yet, Chen Yongkai dared to unite with others, trying to isolate his whale capital. Now that he was anxious, where had he been before? It was too late. Mr. Wang, why are you laughing? Chen Yongkai was taken. Aback and instinctively asked. I laugh at your age, yet you still don’t know what’s good for you. A hint of coldness flashed in Wang Chen’s eyes. Upon hearing this, Chen Yongkai’s anger flared up instantly, but he forced himself. to maintain a smile. He had already lowered his stance and made a gesture of goodwill. How could this Wang Chen be so ungrateful, showing no respect for industry seniors? He had spent his life in the entertainment industry, bringing Hui Guang Media to the top position. Everywhere he went, people treated him with utmost respect. No one dared to show him any disrespect. Yet today, he was mocked by a 20-year-old young man. Even though Wang Chen’s background was extraordinary, he still felt embarrassed. But thinking about how whale capital left them no way out, Chen Yongkai still held back his anger and forced a smile, saying, Mr. Wang may not know me well, people in the circle say I follow the rules. I believe that after getting to know each other better, we can become friends. Who the hell wants to be friends with you? Wang Chen felt a wave of nausea at his pretentious demeanor, if you’re going to keep pretending like this, then just leave. My time is very valuable, I don’t have the time to chat with you. Chen Yongkai’s face turned a mix of green and white, nearly unable to hold back from confronting Wang Chen. Ha, it’s great to see President Wang so young and vigorous, young people should be like this. Shen Yongkai suppressed the anger rising in his chest and the smile on his face became increasingly stiff. He took a deep breath. And slowly said, President Wang, I know you have many grievances against me right now, but let’s not talk about past grudges today, let’s discuss the current situation. Your capital expansion is too aggressive, seriously. Squeezing the survival space of us peers. After all, the market is only so big, if you continue to swallow everything, there will be no way for anyone else to survive. I came today hoping to discuss a win-win situation with you. President Chen, your words are quite interesting. When you brought a group of people to resist me before, why didn’t you think about a win-win? Now that you’re forced into a corner by me, you come to talk about cooperation, do you think I’m easy to bully? Wang Chen crossed his arms, his eyes filled with mockery. No, no, President Wang comes from the Wang family, who and Hua Gua would dare to bully you. Chen Yongkai quickly replied, it’s just that the entertainment industry is so small, the pool is too limited to accommodate a true dragon like you. I just hope President Wang can give us a chance to make a living. Is this still my fault? You veterans of the entertainment industry, I respect you and call you seniors, but if you don’t give me face, don’t blame me for not giving you face. What is Chen Yongkai in front of me? Wang Chun chuckled lightly, not hiding his disdain. You say that, but how? Could I dare not give you face, President Wang? Chen Yongkai’s smile became even more rigid. It’s just that the rules of the entertainment industry have been around for a long time. Everyone is working step by step in their own fields. Your aggressive capital entry is too much, and many peers are struggling to cope. Wang Chen leaned back in his chair, casually resting his hands on the armrests, his eyes full of mockery, President Chen, rules are. Dead, but people are alive. I entered the market with capital, intending to grow the cake together with everyone, but what about you? You banded together to resist me, and now that I’ve taken market share, you come to complain. How do you think I should respond to you? Chen Yongkai gritted his teeth and continued, President Wang, we admit that our previous actions were somewhat inappropriate but we were also trying to protect our own livelihoods. These are all normal business behaviors, decisions made at the company level, with no intention of targeting you. We wouldn’t dare to target you. We hope President Wang can understand and calm down. It’s too late to say these things now. Wang Chen’s gaze grew colder, yet he wore a smile. To put it bluntly, you treat the entertainment industry as your own, I, a young newcomer, just want a piece of the cake without paying homage to your big boss. I have no complaints about being dealt with by you. Shen Yung Kai quickly said, President Wang, you say that, but how could I dare to claim the entertainment industry as my own, let alone act like a big boss? I came this time just to apologize to you, we were short -sighted before. As the saying goes, it’s better to resolve enmity than to deepen it, more friends mean more paths. It’s great for everyone to make money together, but your capital swallowing is indeed a bit excessive, leaving no crumbs for other companies in the industry. If everyone were like you, wouldn’t the entertainment industry be in chaos? My coming here is not just the opinion of my company, but also, that of several other major companies. Only by banding together and working hard can the entertainment industry develop better, don’t you think so? Upon hearing this, the faint smile on Wang Chen’s face instantly vanished. Replaced by a frosty expression that he slammed the table suddenly, what you just said is quite interesting. When you several families united to resist me back then, why didn’t you think about making money together and developing? As a group? Now that I, whale capital, have firmly established my footing in the market, you jump out to accuse me of not giving you a way to survive. Isn’t that the height of absurdity? Chen Yongkai was startled by Wang Chen’s sudden momentum. But he quickly steadied his expression and forced a calm tone, saying, Mr. Wang, let’s not bring up the past. We are all here for the development of the company and misunderstandings are inevitable. The current industry situation is severe, if we continue this internal strife, the entire entertainment circle will suffer greatly. If you would listen to a proposal that we several companies have discussed, I believe everyone can profit. And the entire industry’s ecology can be healthier. Alright, I’d like to hear what proposal you have. Wang Chen responded with a smile upon hearing this. Chen Yongkai cleared his throat and began, Mr. Wang, the core of. The proposal we several companies have discussed is to hope that whale capital can immediately halt its large-scale investment expansion in the entertainment circle. You see, in just this short period, whale capital has already. dominated several hot projects, almost sweeping up all the quality investment projects in the market. He paused, observing Wang Chen’s reaction. Wang Chen’s expression remained calm, but his eyes were fixed on him, making Chen, Yongkai feel uneasy. Your monopolistic situation has severely compressed the survival space of other companies. All investment opportunities are firmly in your grasp. This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to other companies in the industry, isn’t that a bit too overbearing? At this point, Chen Yongkai slightly slowed his pace, Mr. Wang, you also know that the entertainment circle has always been a web of connections, where one move can affect the whole body. Now that several major companies have reached a consensus, if whale capital continues to expand so aggressively, it will likely encounter many obstacles in the future. We could have worked hand in hand to create prosperity. Why must we come to this point of confrontation? Don’t you agree? After finishing, Chen Yongkai stared intently at Wang Chen, his gaze carrying a barely perceptible threat. Wang Chen, instead of getting angry, laughed after. Hearing this, his laughter echoing in the quiet office, making Chen Yongkai feel a chill down his spine. Wang Chen leaned forward, his eyes icy, staring hard at Chen Yongkai, Mr. Chen, your words truly opened my eyes. When you united to resist me back then, why didn’t you show such foresight and concern for the industry’s ecology? Now that I’m doing well, it’s suddenly my fault? As for your so-called obstacles, whale capital is never afraid of any challenges. Strength is the hard truth. Wang Chen snorted coldly, my investment projects rely on precise vision and strong capital, reasonable and legal, how can that be called overbearing? You several companies think every day about how to restrict me, it seems you will find it hard to establish yourselves in the entertainment circle in the future. Since Wang Chen regained his life, this was the first time someone dared to disrespect him in, Hua Gua, and even dared to threaten him. And this was just a small entertainment company owner. Should he say he has some backing? Or that the skilled are bold? Mr. Wang, please don’t think that way, we have no other intentions. Shen Yongkai smiled, we several have agreed, everyone can make money. Mr. Wang, your projects are all exclusive investments and the risks are somewhat high. You only need to share 90% of the project, leaving you with a 10% share. With 90% of the entertainment circles companies taking that, it’s already quite reasonable. That’s actually quite a lot. For a company as large as our brilliant media, many times we can’t even get 10%. This circle is just too small. To share the risks, resource sharing can only be like this. You may think that 10% is a small amount, but if you can secure 10% of all the projects, that becomes quite substantial. Chen Yongkai said with a kind expression, advising, otherwise, with your whale capital swallowing so many projects, there might be some issues with promotion later on. Without a solid foundation, having money won’t help, it will be very difficult to survive in this industry. Wang Chen was almost stunned by his words. How could Chen Yongkai be so thick-skinned? It truly opened his eyes. How did he have the courage to say such things? Did Chen Yongkai really think he was just a 3-year-old child? Did he really consider him a wasteful rich second generation, a fool who only knew how to throw money around? To suggest giving away 90% of the shares right off the bat. Even at this point, Chen Yongkai was still so greedy, truly thinking he wouldn’t dare to monopolize the entire entertainment industry. Just with a few words, he wanted him to spit out the meat in his mouth. How naive. How could Chen Yongkai even dare to think that? Or did he not take the Wang family seriously? How about I just give you all the projects? We at Whale Capital will immediately announce our withdrawal from the entertainment industry, Wang Chen said seriously. Upon hearing this, Chen Yongkai’s smile instantly froze, and he was momentarily at a loss for how to respond to Wang Chen’s seemingly teasing it filled with anger words. He chuckled awkwardly, trying to ease the atmosphere, Mr. Wang, you’re being too formal. We don’t mean that at all, we’re just discussing a win-win solution for the long-term development of the industry. Do you really think Wang Chen is easy to deal with? Or do you think of yourself as someone important? Wang Chen said in a cold voice. The atmosphere in the room immediately became tense. What do you mean by that, Mr. Wang? Chen Yongkai’s smile vanished, and his expression darkened. How dare you, Chen Yongkai, say in front of me that I should give you 90% of the shares? I really don’t know where you get the courage to say such things. Wang Chen sneered, disdainfully, saying, Are you offering me 10% like it’s charity? Should I thank you for that? I really should thank you for giving me a meal. Are you still half asleep? Why don’t you say I should just give you the investment? projects directly? That way, you wouldn’t have to spend a dime and could enjoy the profits effortlessly. Why not just rob me outright? Chen Yongkai was taken aback by Wang Chen’s words, feeling a bit embarrassed, I’m trying. To help you. If you think like this, there’s nothing I can do. If you don’t agree, all the companies in the entertainment industry can unite to resist whale capital and then I can’t do anything about it. Not agree? Wang. Chen snorted coldly, since I, Wang Chen, have entered the entertainment industry, my rules are the rules. Your few companies do not represent the entire entertainment industry. Don’t think you can pressure me. Mr. Wang, you shouldn’t speak too confidently. Chen Yongkai gritted his teeth, the veins on his forehead slightly bulging, and he forced himself to say with suppressed anger, although our few companies indeed cannot represent the entire entertainment industry, if we really unite to resist, it won’t be easy for your whale capital to continue expanding in this circle. Just think about it, if filming locations refuse to let you use them, if famous artists dare. Not take your projects, if promotion channels are blocked from you, even if your projects are filmed, how will you present them to the public? Then you can try and see if you can suppress the expansion of whale capital. Wang Chen blanced at him calmly and said lightly. Chen Yongkai shivered at Wang Chen’s gaze. It dawned on him that Wang Chen was not someone he could easily manipulate. Chen Yongkai calmed down and said, Mr. Wang, I was too excited. But do you really want to stir up chaos in the entire entertainment industry? Don’t push it to the point of mutual destruction or someone else will reap the benefits. Mutual destruction? How dare you even think that? Go ask. Your old man if he dares to say such things. Are you afraid that your Chen family is even worthy? Go eat shit. Get out. Wang Chen directly issued the eviction order. Chen Yongkai’s face instantly turned crimson, veins bulging. On his forehead, his eyes nearly shooting fire as he glared fiercely at Wang Chen, his chest heaving violently. Wang Chen, don’t go too far. You humiliated me like this today and I will make you regret it. Chen Yongkai shouted. Angrily. He suddenly stood up and walked towards the door, stopping just before exiting. He turned back and said viciously, just wait. This matter is far from over. The entertainment industry won’t let you run rampant like this. I, Chen Yongkai, won’t swallow this anger, and the entire Chen family won’t either. Wang Chen calmly watched him leave the office. Ever since Chen Yongkai chose to exclude whale capital, this matter wouldn’t end until one side completely surrendered. Wang Chen didn’t have such a good heart to let those who bullied him off the hook. If people in the entertainment industry could bully Wang Chen, how could he survive? The whole of Hua Gua would laugh. At him. In the future, any Tom, Dick, or Harry could trip him up. A glint of murderous intent flashed in Wang Chen’s eyes, this group of old relics, the country hasn’t dealt with you yet, and you’re still jumping around here. Not long after Chen Yongkai left, Wang Chen received a report from Long Lily. A major earthquake had struck the entire entertainment industry. Chen Yongkai’s Huiguan Media, along with several other companies, jointly issued a Statement, joint statement on maintaining a healthy ecosystem and fair competition in the entertainment industry. Recently, the landscape of the entertainment industry has been changing rapidly, with new forces continuously. Emerging. The emerging force represented by Whale Capital has adopted a series of radical and unreasonable business practices after entering the entertainment industry, severely disrupting the industry ecosystem and the environment. For fair competition, Whale Capital, with its strong financial backing, has almost madly monopolized quality projects through exclusive contracts. This behavior has led to many promising film and television projects being monopolized depriving other companies of the opportunity to participate in fair competition. Over time, the entertainment industry will lose its diversity and innovation, becoming a one-sided arena controlled by capital. We demand that Whale Capital immediately cease its unreasonable project monopolization and return to a fair and orderly market competition environment. Otherwise, projects invested by Whale Capital will not be able to be launched on major film and television platforms and cinemas. We firmly believe that only through collective efforts and adherence to industry bottom lines can the entertainment industry continue to prosper and develop, creating more quality. Film and television works to bring better productions to the audience. Wang Chen looked at the information on his computer, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. Their actions were indeed swift. Just as one side left, the other issued a boycott announcement. Any project invested by Whale Capital became their target, and once the works were produced, they wouldn’t even be able to launch them. This was a complete break with Whale Capital. It was a blatant shutdown. The entire entertainment industry was watching the spectacle. They were all waiting to see how Hueguang media would retaliate. The result was unexpectedly explosive. This was a direct and lethal strike. Completely going head-to-head with Whale Capital. Now, in the internet age, satellite TV had already declined. If major platforms couldn’t launch Whale Capital’s projects, then no matter how good the production was, it would be useless. Not just the investors, even the directors and lead actors would end up losing everything. Industry insiders were also buzzing with discussion, with many film and television company owners gathering together to privately exchange views on this incident. Some were relieved they weren’t caught up in this dispute, while others were secretly calculating how to find an opportunity amidst the storm to benefit their own companies. Companies that had already signed contracts with Whale Capital and received funding were now pleasantly surprised to have secured investments. They could make a significant profit now that this statement has been released. Everyone is stunned, feeling as if the world has gone dark, not knowing what to do. The owner of a small film production company sits at his desk, hands on his head, his face full of regret, it’s over, it’s over. Our company relies on this investment. To turn things around, planning to seize this opportunity to make a comeback. Now, if the project can’t go online, not only will we not make money, but we won’t even be able to pay our employees. Meanwhile, those companies that were originally on the fence, considering whether to collaborate with Whale Capital, are now secretly relieved at their caution. Thankfully, they didn’t sign, otherwise, they would be suffering too. Many of these companies. had pinned all their hopes on this project, counting on a turnaround. But now, they had just secured the investment and hadn’t even started filming, only to suffer such a major blow. Whale Capital’s customer service hotline was instantly overwhelmed with calls, all inquiring how Whale Capital planned to resolve this issue. Some wanted to terminate their contracts, making the already busy customer service even busier. Suddenly, the phone rang, and Wang Chin frowned slightly, glancing at the caller ID, it was Yang Ni. Without hesitation, he pressed the answer button. Wang Xiao, have you missed me? Yang Mi’s sweet voice came through the phone. What made you think of? Calling me? Wang Chen smiled. You don’t even know to contact me proactively after we exchanged numbers. Yang Mi’s somewhat resentful voice came from the other end. Wang Xiao, are there so many beauties around you that you’ve completely forgotten about this old woman of mine? Who has your charm? Don’t tease me, Wang Chen said, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly. He didn’t take Yang Mi’s words to heart, she was just a career-oriented woman. Such words came easily to her. But if he took them seriously, he would be falling for her tricks. Back to the point, Wang Xiao, you are now a prominent figure in the entertainment industry. With that joint statement out, the whole circle is in an uproar. How do you plan to respond? I’m feeling a bit uncertain here, Yang Mi asked. This time they came on strong, trying to give me a warning to make whale capital back down. They think that by joining forces, they can trap me, it’s simply wishful thinking, Wang Chen said lightly. Are you scared? Scared? I’ve been crawling and fighting in this entertainment circle for so many years, and I’ve never really been afraid of anything. Yang Mi huffed lightly, her tone carrying a hint of stubbornness. I’m here to say that Jiaxing firmly stands with you, you don’t have to worry about me terminating the contract. Chen Yongkai has been bullying people in the entertainment industry for so many years, it’s time for him to step down. Wang Xiao, you must be strong and strive to defeat him so he can never rise again. Do you have a conflict with him? Yes. Yang Mi said helplessly. He has given me no small amount of trouble over the years, I remember it all. Chen Yongkai appears to be righteous on the surface but in reality, he is narrow-minded and ruthless. He uses both bribery and suppression to build his own power base. Though small and medium companies that refuse to submit to him have suffered greatly from his various underhanded tactics, a glint of coldness flashed in Wang Chen’s eyes as he said coldly, such behavior is truly despicable. It seems that unless we completely take him down, the entertainment industry will not find peace. Then Wang Xiao, you need to work hard. If you succeed, you can do whatever you want with your sister. Wang. Chen’s lips curled slightly, revealing a hint of confident smile, and he didn’t respond much to Yang Mi’s slightly flirtatious words. After chatting for a bit he hung up the phone. Yang Mi really has guts. At this time, she stands. Firm and unwavering. She’s a smart person. Compared to the attitudes of other companies, Yang Mi is extremely wise. She has already aligned with Whale Capital and the idea of trying to curry favor with brilliant media, being a fence-sitter, would only leave her with nothing from both sides. Wang Chen leaned back in the leather chair, a glimmer of appreciation in his eyes, having a steadfast ally like Yang Mi is truly rare. To those who are unaware, whale capital seems to have run out of tricks. As a newly emerging capital without a solid foundation, they can only kneel and beg for mercy or exit the entertainment industry in disgrace. However, in Wang Chen’s eyes, this is merely a trivial matter. If Chen Yongkai were to play by the rules and engage in normal business competition with him, even if he lost, Wang Chen would accept it. But now that Chen Yongkai is resorting to these outrageous tactics. he can’t blame anyone else. At that moment, his phone rang again. He looked down to see that the caller ID was Qin Fun and a slight smile crept onto his lips as he thought to himself that this kid is quite well informed. The call coming in now is self-explanatory. He pressed the answer button and said with an easy smile, oh, young master Qin, what made you think of calling me? I just heard about that incident in the entertainment industry, where Chen Yongkai and his little clowns have banded together to resist us at whale capital. Isn’t that just nonsense? On the other end of the line, Qin Feng’s voice was filled with his usual cheerful laughter. Do you need me to step in and show them a thing or two? Not to mention, I know some prominent figures in the broadcasting and television industry. Dealing with them shouldn’t be a problem. No need to trouble you with such trivial matters. I just happen to want to take this opportunity to thoroughly clean up the murky waters of the entertainment industry and establish whale capital’s prestige, Wang Qin said lightly as he leaned back in his chair. Upon hearing this, Qin Fen laughed heartily, alright, since you have it all figured out, I won’t meddle. But you must remember, if you encounter any tricky problems, just say the word, and I, Qin Fen, will not stand idly by. Sure. Wang Chan replied. With a smile. Alright then, I’m drinking with the girls over here, so I’ll hang up. After saying that, Qin Fen directly ended the call. People around him began to call in one after another, some asking if he needed help, while the women nearby were concerned about whether he was tired. There was no worry at all about Wang Chan handling these matters. Downstairs at the company, the Rolls-Royce Cullinan had been waiting for a long time. When Long Fong saw him approaching, he quickly got out of the car and respectfully opened the door for him, to Zhang Rou’s place. Wang Shin said softly to the driver as he got into the car. Lang Fong nodded, started the engine, and smoothly merged into the bustling traffic of the Magic City. Before Long, the car stopped at the entrance of the community where Zhang Rou lived. He made his way to Zhang Rou’s floor with ease, stood in front of the door, and entered the password. Stepping inside, Wang Chen immediately heard a light, cheerful footstep coming from the direction of the bedroom. Upon seeing Wang Chen, Zhang Rou was momentarily stunned, then her face broke into a surprised, smile, ah, what brings you here? And you even knew I was off today. After finishing up at the company today, I thought of coming to keep you company right away. He stepped forward, gently embracing Zhang Rou, resting his chin, lightly on the top of her head, inhaling the faint fragrance of her hair. Zhang Rou leaned against Wang Chen, wrapping her arms around his waist, and lightly punched him. You just know how to make me happy, but I’m really glad. You came to see me. You came at just the right time. I just baked a small cake and was worried I couldn’t finish it alone. Zhang Rou nestled in Wang Chen’s arms and playfully punched his chest. She took Wang Chen’s hand and led him to the living room, where a delicate three-tiered cake adorned with various fruit decorations sat on the dining table. The two sat down at the table, and Zhang Rou handed Wang Chen a small cake. Quick, try it and see if. My skills have improved. Wang Chen took the cake, took a bite, and the soft cake melted in his mouth, the sweet flavor instantly spreading, hmm, it’s so delicious, your skills are good enough to open a cake shop. Zhang Rou laughed happily, I’m glad you like it. By the way, how’s everything at the company lately? I’ve seen quite a bit of information online. Mentioning the company, a hint of worry flashed in Zhang Rou’s eyes. It’s nothing, just, a small issue. Wang Chen said. He briefly explained the ins and outs of the situation to Zhang Rou. After listening, Zhang Rou furrowed her brows tightly, how can they do this? It’s really too much. but I believe you can. Handle it. How are you finding living here? Wang Chen nodded, glancing around the room. It’s quite comfortable here, and it’s also relatively close to where I work. Upon hearing this, a hint of satisfaction appeared on Zhang. Ro’s face. She walked to the window, gently pulled back the curtains, allowing more sunlight to pour into the room. Every morning when I wake up and see the view outside, it really lifts my spirits. Wang Chen stood behind her. Embracing her, looking out at the scenery, and nodded slightly, it is quite nice, but I’ve recently purchased some property near Luji Azui. He lowered his head slightly and whispered in Zhang Rou’s ear, I want you to move over. There. The safety and comfort are much better. And I think it will be more convenient for you too. Zhang Rou turned around, a flicker of surprise and hesitation in her eyes, but upon hearing Wang Chen mention convenience, she nodded in agreement to moving. It just feels a bit sudden. I’m used to living here, and moving is such a hassle, I have to pack so many things. Biting her lip, a hint of reluctance showed in her eyes, after all, she and Wang Chen had left many beautiful memories in this apartment. Just bring a few things, I’ll have the bodyguards move the rest, Wang Chen said. Alright, Zhang Rou nodded. She then tidied up her clothes and followed Wang Chen. Downstairs. Not far away, a black Rolls Royce Cullinan was quietly parked by the roadside. After letting Zhang Rou sit in the passenger seat, Wang Chen said to Lang Fong, go pack up the things at home and send everything to Tang. Chen Yipin, make sure nothing is left behind. Understood, young master Wang, I’ll handle it right away. After noting the secret, Lang Fong headed straight upstairs. Wang Chen took the driver’s seat of the culinan and drove away quickly. Before long, the car arrived at the underground parking lot of Tang Chen Yipin. Wang Chen parked the car and opened the door for Zhang Rou again and the two walked towards the elevator fingers intertwined. Wang Chen pressed the button for the top floor. As the elevator slowly ascended, Zhang Rou’s heart grew increasingly tense. Soon, the elevator arrived, and Wang Chen led Zhang Rou to their front door, entered the password, and the door opened with a sound. The living room was spacious and bright. The minimalist and elegant decor style paired with top-notch furniture and facilities showcased luxury and taste in every detail. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows allowed sunlight to pour in without reservation. Outside the window, the Huangpu River shimmered and the skyscrapers of Lu Jiazui stood tall across the river, the bustling cityscape laid out before them. Zheng Rou was deeply shocked by the scene before her, standing in place, momentarily speechless. Wang Chin walked behind her, gently placing his hands on her shoulders, and asked softly, So, do you like it here? From now on, this will be your home. Zhang Rou looked at the luxurious house, her heart filled with emotion. She turned around, her eyes slightly red, filled with gratitude and surprise, her voice a bit choked as she said, I love it, I love it so much. Actually, during this time, I thought you didn’t want me anymore. I saw online that your current girlfriend is really beautiful. I was so afraid you would leave me. Upon hearing Zhang Rou’s words, Wang Chen cupped her face in his hands, making her look directly into his eyes, his gaze filled with determination. How could you think that? No one can replace your position in my heart. You are my first woman. From the beginning to the end, there has always been a place for you in my heart. Wang Chen tightly embraced Zhang Rou, resting his chin on the top of her head, softly comforting her. Wang Chen slowly lowered his head, gently touching Zhang Rou’s rosy lips. Zhang Rou gently closed her eyes, her hands unconsciously wrapping around Wang Chen’s neck, responding to his kiss. Wang Chen deepened the kiss, their tongues intertwining. As he kissed Zhang Rou, he moved towards the bedroom. Zhang Rou’s cheeks, flushed, immersed in this passionate affection. The living room was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere, sunlight spilling over them, outlining the figures of the two tightly embraced. The next day, on the surface, the entertainment industry seemed calm, but in reality, undercurrents were surging. Countless people were eagerly awaiting Wang Chen’s next move. Would he choose to compromise and withdraw, or would he fight back fiercely? Just as everyone was holding their breath in anticipation, the broadcasting department announced an investigation into companies like Hui Guang Media. Recently, our department has received multiple reports against Hueguan Media and other companies. After preliminary verification, Hueguan Media and others are suspected of violating several laws and regulations, including the Anti-Monopoly Law and the Anti-Unfair Competition Law, severely disrupting market order, and harming the fair competition environment and consumer rights. To maintain the healthy and orderly development of the industry, our department has decided to investigate the following companies. Hueguan Media Company, Limited, as a Media enterprise with significant influence in the industry, it has been reported for monopolistic practices throughout the entire process of film and television project investment, production, and distribution. During the project bidding process, it is suspected of colluding maliciously with certain partners to illegally intervene in the evaluation results, undermining the normal competitive order of the market. Xingyao Film Investment Group Utilizing its financial advantages, it has collaborated with certain affiliated companies to engage in bid-rigging and collusion activities on promising film and television projects, making it difficult for other small and medium-sized film investment companies to obtain fair investment opportunities. Our department adheres to the principles of fairness and transparency, conducting a comprehensive and in-depth investigation of the aforementioned companies in accordance with the law. Hueguan Media Company, Limited and others have openly admitted to their actions. Given that Hueguan Media Company, Limited has long engaged in monopolistic practices throughout the entire process of film, and television project investment, production, and distribution, severely damaging the fair competitive environment of the market, a hefty fine of 1 billion Huasha coins has been imposed on Hueguan Media Company, Limited Xingyao Film. Investment crew, which has severely hindered the normal development of small and medium-sized film investment companies, has been fined 800 million. Once the news was announced, the entire entertainment industry was once again shaken. Many industry professionals applauded in delight. Major media outlets rushed to report, and netizens fervently discussed on social platforms, expressing high praise for the decisive actions of the regulatory authorities. The stock prices of companies like Hueguang Media plummeted dramatically, evaporating over a hundred billion in funds. Many were pondering why this investigation notice was suddenly released. Ultimately, their attention turned to Wang Chen. Besides him, no one else had such influence. Coincidentally, the day before, Hueguang Media had issued an industry statement regarding the development of Whale Capital only to be fined by the Broadcasting Department shortly after. Previously, those small and medium-sized companies were worried about what Whale Capital would do after being sanctioned by Hueguang Media. Now it seemed they were overthinking. Hueguang Media and others controlled major platforms and most cinema resources to make money, they were indispensable. Whale Capital had offended them and no amount of money would help. It was destined to end in disgrace. But now, with the broadcasting department’s announcement, it left people gasping in shock. What kind of background does Wang Chen have? This is incredible, even the broadcasting department is helping him. Wasn’t Huayguan Media prohibiting whale capital from investing in projects on their platform? Now the broadcasting department directly caught them monopolizing the industry. They won’t be able to escape punishment. Let’s see who really has the upper hand in the entertainment. Industry, as soon as Chen Yongkai got out of bed, he noticed that Xiaomi was looking at him strangely. What are you looking at? Mr. Chen, you haven’t seen today’s news, have you? Xiaomi hesitated but still spoke up. What’s in the news? Chen Yongkai asked as he wrapped his arms around her. You should take a look, I can’t say it. Xiaomi hesitated for a moment and handed her phone to Chen Yongkai. She had been with him for several years and had a decent understanding of his temperament. He usually treated her well, fulfilling her requests for bags, but when he faced troubling matters, he would lash out at her. Whenever Chen Yongkai needed something, a phone call would summon her immediately. Earning money was tough, and dealing with him was even tougher. Chen Yongkai frowned as he took the phone, she never cared about other matters and rarely spoke out of turn. He kept her around all these years. Because she was obedient, but her current demeanor was clearly off. She looked anxious, and he felt a sudden unease. What had happened? With that thought, Chen Yongkai felt a wave of anxiety wash over him. He took the phone and looked at the screen, where the headline from various news apps read, WeHuang Media and other companies find one billion for suspected monopoly. Chen Yongkai’s pupils instantly constricted, his fingers trembled uncontrollably, and the phone slipped from his grasp, falling onto the bed. Coming back to his senses, he shakily picked up the phone again. Each accusation from the broadcasting authority pierced his heart like a knife. Impossible. This is a. Frame up. His temples throbbed, and veins bulged on his forehead. Chen Yongkai stared at the screen showing the one billion fine, and a wave of dizziness hit him. He staggered and leaned against the headboard, a metallic taste, rising in his throat. Bright red blood suddenly sprayed onto the phone screen. Xiaomi screamed in terror, instinctively standing up, but she knocked over the bedside table and a perfume bottle shattered on the floor. Chen Yongkai, however, was oblivious, his gaze fixed on the screen. Wang Chen! You bastard! He suddenly roared like a cornered beast, grabbing the crystal ashtray from the bedside and smashing it against the wall. Xiaomi. curled up in the corner. She watched as this once vibrant man seemed to age 10 years in just a few minutes. Chen Yongkai slumped at the edge of the bed, his hair disheveled, hanging over his forehead, blood at the corner of his mouth, yet his eyes were hauntingly hollow. There was no need to think too much about it, he knew it was Wang Chen’s doing. He hadn’t offended anyone else during this time, the only person he had crossed was Wang Chen. And only. Wang Chen had the power to do this. The reason he dared to confront Wang Chen was that he believed the old man from the Wang family wouldn’t intervene. After all, there were precedents for such matters. Many offspring of the elite would venture out to start their own businesses after coming of age, seeking to prove themselves. Their families were usually supportive of this. Regardless of the outcome, even if they lost all their money or were bullied by someone, the older generation wouldn’t care. They trusted the younger generation to venture out, not necessarily to make money but to develop their skills. It was merely preparation for taking over the family business in the future. This was quite common among the upper class nationwide. Wang Sikon was a typical example, despite losing so much money in investments, old Wang didn’t mind. The only help he provided was to keep sending money. In the end, he never even tried to pull strings for his son. Chen Yongkai’s actions against Wang Chen seemed severe, but in reality, they were just business maneuvers. Even if it went to higher authorities, Chen Yongkai didn’t feel he was in the wrong. These were the unspoken rules of the circle. Moreover, when he first targeted Wang Chen, Wang Chen chose not to resolve the issue through other means but instead opted to throw money at it. This further confirmed Shen, Yang Kai’s judgment. So after the negotiations with Wang Chen fell through, he finally had the courage to go after Jing Tuin capital, completely severing ties with Wang Chen history proves that his analysis was not wrong. When Wang Chen first called Wang Jianguo, Wang Jianguo did not choose to help him, he merely said a light-hearted remark, telling him to figure it out himself. Wang Chen was so angry his teeth itched, but there was nothing he could do. He thought about asking his mother for help but seeing that her huyao group was not in this industry and lacked the influence of Wang Jianguo, he realized that dealing with Chen Yongkai would be a bit troublesome. After pondering, for a while, he directly called his grandfather, Wang Zhaojun. Then his grandfather took action. Chen Yongkai slumped on the bed, letting out intermittent cold laughs from his throat. Wang Chan is just a second generation rich. Kid trying to gild himself, what right does he have? His neck muscles bulged and he said with a face full of anger. Xiaomi stood at the bedroom door, her fingers subconsciously twisting the silk robe’s tie. Chen Yongkai’s frenzied appearance sent chills down her spine, but thinking of his money, she suppressed the impulse to turn and run away. Drink some water to calm down. She picked up the glass from the bedside table, but as she approached, Chen Yongkai swatted it away. The glass smashed against the wall, shattering into a million pieces. It’s all your fault, you jinx. Chen Yongkai’s bloodshot eyes fixed on her, if it weren’t for you pestering me all day, would I be distracted and mess up the project? Me? She pointed at her own face, bewildered. Tell me, have you been in cahoots with that Wang Chen kid all along? Are you giving him inside information? Chen Yongkai pushed her. Down onto the bed, gripping her neck tightly. Kaigo, I’ve been with you for five years. Why don’t you believe me? I didn’t even know what Wang Chen looked like before. Xiaomi screamed in pain, tears instantly blurring her. Vision. Realizing her breathing was becoming more rapid, Chen Yongkai gradually loosened his grip on her neck then slowly sank down onto the edge of the bed, looking somewhat dazed. As noon approached, Chen Yongkai finally arrived at the company. The moment he stepped through the company door, all the employees’ gazes converged on him. Chen Yongkai forced himself to straighten his back, trying to intimidate everyone with his former authority, but his disheveled hair and wrinkled suit silently told the story of his disarray. The receptionist, who used to bow and scrape when she saw him, now lowered her head pretending to organize documents, her fingers flying over the keyboard, terrified at being targeted by Chen Yongkai. In the corridor, several department heads whispered to each other and upon seeing him approach, they immediately scattered like birds. Chen Yongkai acted as if nothing had happened and walked into his office. This matter had been his decision from start to finish and he hadn’t anticipated the involvement of the Wang family. He could only blame his own bad luck. Given the current situation, there was. No other way, he could only try to minimize losses and dared not continue to trouble Wang Chen. He just hoped Wang Chen would let him off the hook. Chen Yongkai had barely sat in the office for a moment when his secretary walked. in with a stack of documents. Mr. Chen, these are the recent projects the company apply for, television, music, film, all have been rejected by the relevant departments. The secretary said cautiously. All rejected? What’s the reason? There must be a reason. Chen Yongkai clenched his fists, spitting out a few words through gritted teeth. The secretary shrank back a little, pulling out a few return slips from the folder. They said, they said there are risks of market monopoly and some of the project creators have integrity issues. Chen Yongkai felt dizzy. It should be known that in Hua Gua, all entertainment projects must go through review before they can be disseminated in the market. Only after passing the review can they be distributed and profit made. It wasn’t that there hadn’t been projects with review issues before, it was normal for a few projects to be sent back for not adhering to the standards. In such cases, it would have to correct the issues and resubmit. Most of the time, there were no problems. Especially for their Hua Guang media, which had stood in the entertainment industry for so many. years.He was well aware of this aspect, whether there were issues with the work was immediately obvious. However, he had never encountered a situation where all the projects were rejected. Chen Yongkai couldn’t help but feel a pang of regret. If he had known the Wang family was this ruthless he wouldn’t have provoked Wang Chen. If it weren’t for his lucky mindset this wouldn’t have happened and he wouldn’t have offended the bosses of several other companies. Hueguan Media was fined 1 billion. Other companies were also fined several hundred million or tens of millions. They didn’t dare to trouble Wang Chen, this debt would eventually fall on his head. Moreover, they annotated the problems behind each project, the secretary stammered. There’s a city film with a subplot about a small thug claiming we promote the ideas of gangsters and are involved in crime. And there’s a female lead who gets involved with a rich second generation saying it has a bad influence, vanity. There are many such annotations. If we modify according to their suggestions, many projects would have to be reshot. Chen Yongkai grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it against the wall. Reshoot? Do you think the company’s money grows on trees? His roar made the glass windows buzz, causing the secretary to instinctively take a step back. Given the current situation, it’s clear that Wang Chen is behind this. Shouldn’t you go find him and see if it can be resolved? The secretary said cautiously. Chen Yongkai turned sharply, his bloodshot eye seeming to spit fire. Find him? How do you expect me to do that? Should I kneel and beg that brat? That’s not ideal, but our company’s losses are just too great. A fine of 1 billion and with so much money invested in these projects, it’s likely all going down. The drain. The secretary took out a document and handed it to Chen Yongkai, adding up all the losses, it might far exceed 50 billion. Our company’s financial situation can’t bear such a huge loss. Chen Yongkai’s throat. Rolled as he trembled and took the document. This incident was entirely his own doing. Even if he wanted to blame someone, he couldn’t find anyone. Chen Yongkai felt a heaviness in his chest, struggling to breathe. He forced. Himself to open the document. The more he read, the more alarmed he became. At that moment, the secretary spoke up. Mr. Chen, there’s something even more important. What is it? The old man is waiting for you in the lounge. That old man? Chen Yongkai was momentarily taken aback. Your father. The secretary shrank back a little. Damn, what have you been doing all this time? Why didn’t you say so earlier? Chen Yongkai cursed a few times and headed toward the lounge. He arrived outside the lounge door, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself. Remembering his father’s past authority, Chen Yongkai felt his legs tremble. He was somewhat afraid to face his father. But, in the end, he pushed open the lounge door and walked inside. The lounge was filled with a strong scent of sandalwood. Seated in a redwood armchair was the elderly Chen, white-haired and sipping tea. A young woman stood behind him, massaging his shoulders. Kneel. Hearing the footsteps, he didn’t look up but continued to drink his tea. Chen Yongkai’s knees buckled, crashing heavily onto the floor, but he barely felt the sharp pain in his knees. The old man slammed the teacup down on the table, the sharp sound startling him, 1 billion in fines, 50 billion in losses. Do you think Hui Guan Media is your toy to vent your frustrations on? Dad, it was Wang Chen who. Chen Yongkai instinctively wanted to defend himself. Shut up. The old man glanced at him, a few tricks, you use them, fine. Business is like a battlefield, you haven’t forgotten what I entrusted to you, and you did well on. That front. Dad, do you support what I did before? Chen Yongkai was overjoyed and wanted to stand up. Kneel. Old Master Chen’s eyes were blazing with anger, but why do you want to offend the Wang family? Do you know what? The Wang family does? Then let me ask you, what were you thinking? Are you brainless? The Wang family, which everyone avoids, and you rush to find trouble. Now look, are you satisfied dragging the entire Chen family down with? You? Chen Yongkai immediately knelt down, raising his head to meet the bloodshot eyes of the Old Master. The Old Master coughed violently a few times, and the young lady behind him quickly patted his back to help him breathe. Do you not know the weight of the Wang family? Ah, I’m asking you. You’re just like an egg hitting a rock. With such a large family business, I see you’ll ruin it before you’re satisfied. As the founder of Brilliant Media, old master Chen had deep feelings for the company. After so many years of development, Brilliant Media had long grown from a small company into a giant in the industry, growing alongside the entertainment circle. Chen Yong Kai, knelt on the cold floor tiles, watching his father’s chest rise and fall violently, his throat choking up. After enduring so much hardship, we finally achieved this brilliance. And you, in such a short time, have dragged the company into an abyss. Old master Chen Lin Zhang trembled as he grasped his sandalwood cane, striking the floor with a loud thud. For Chen Lin Zhang, who had fought in the business world for decades, he knew that doing business was not just about business. For a company to develop or to survive, the most important thing was to be cautious. Knowing who to offend and who not to offend was crucial. One must have a clear mind. The business world is like a battlefield, every step is like walking on thin ice. This is not an empty phrase. He had always kept a respectful distance from the second generation with red backgrounds just to avoid being caught with a handle. He never expected. That after being so careful all his life finally bringing brilliant media to unprecedented heights he would face such a huge trouble just two years into retirement because of Chen Yong Kai. This wasteful thing was going to ruin. His brilliant media. He had woken up early to receive complaints from the board of directors. After understanding the situation he rushed to the company without stopping. Dad. I really didn’t expect the old master of the Wang. family to take action. Chen Yongkai’s face was full of regret. I didn’t expect this situation either. If I had known, I definitely wouldn’t have dared to target Wang Chen. Who told him to go too far? He has swallowed up all the projects in the market. If I don’t take action, Brilliant Media might be knocked off its leading position by his capital. Although that’s the case, why didn’t you discuss such a big matter with me before making a decision? Old Master Chen asked with a cold face. I thought the company had encountered similar problems in the past, and they were handled this way, so. I didn’t consult you. Chen Yongkai lowered his head somewhat guiltily and said. In a low voice, I just didn’t expect that simple business competition would escalate to this level. The Wang family really has no sense of honor. Simple business competition? Don’t you see whose son Wang Chen is? Old master. Chen’s face was filled with anger. Wang Chen is the son of Wang Jianguo, the grandson of Wang Zhaojun. Hu and Hua Gua dares to provoke him knowing his identity. And you went to deliver yourself to him. Have you not seen how many? Fields Jingtu and Capital has invested in? Which field has resisted him? Ah, I’m asking you, is your brain blocked? I think you’ve been too comfortable these years, thinking you’re capable and looking down on everyone. You. Actually did something so foolish. Have you ignored everything I’ve taught you over the years? I should’ve put you on the wall back then. The more old master Chen spoke, the angrier he became, wishing he could beat this unfilial. Son to death. Hearing this, Chen Yongkai panicked, Dad, you can’t blame me entirely, it’s all the Wang family’s fault for not following the rules. After the old master of the Wang family stepped down from a key position, the. Younger generation is still lacking in maturity, and every move they make attracts immense attention. For families like this, the most important thing is to keep a low profile. The old man of the Wang family resorted to such. Means for a trivial matter concerning Wang Chen, doesn’t he fear being besieged by rivals? Not following the rules? Old Master Chen sneered, the rules were set by their family, what rules are we supposed to follow? Wang Chen is the only son of their generation, a precious gem. If he goes to complain to the old man, how can the old man not be furious when he sees his beloved grandson wronged? Facing Wang Chen’s family background, Chen Yongkai not. Only refrained from flattering him but actively provoked him instead. In normal business dealings, even if Whale Capital’s investments in the entertainment industry ended up losing everything, the Wang family wouldn’t intervene. Wang Chen’s grandfather wouldn’t mobilize the power of the Z -level just to deal with the trivial matter concerning Hwaeguang media. Otherwise, how would the Wang family continue to navigate the political landscape in Hua Xia? Such matters could easily be brought up 800 times a day. It’s always about how formidable the Wang family is. When Wang Chen suffered losses in the entertainment industry, the old man turned the tide with a single move, imposing hefty fines on other companies for trivial reasons. That’s a lifetime stain. But the foolish part of Chen Yongkai is that, relying on the company’s leading position, he fails to see the situation clearly. Hui Guang Media is a giant in the entertainment industry. But in front of the Wang family and Wang Jianguo’s vanguard-heavy industry group, what is that? Not even worthy of carrying their shoes. However, Hueguang Media, in conjunction with several other companies, is targeting whale capital for a blockade. This situation is different, it’s a provocation against the entire Wang family. If the old man of the Wang family takes action, no one would dare to say anything, and no one could find fault. Chen Yongkai was left speechless by the old man’s words. He knew how much loss this incident had caused the company and how difficult the situation was. If he weren’t the son of Chen Lingzhang, he would probably have been fired by now or even facing prison time. Dad, is there really no way to remedy this? Can we, can we go apologize to the Wang family? Old Master Chen snorted coldly, apologize? You only think of that now? The board has already decided to remove you from your position, you’d better take care of yourself from now on. Chen Yongkai suddenly looked up, disbelief filling his eyes, Dad, I’m your own son, Huigwang Media’s. Growth also has my contributions. You should think carefully about how to apologize to Wang Chen from now on, you don’t need to worry about the company anymore. Chen Lin Zhang shook his head and had the beautiful woman behind. him push his wheelchair out. Among his sons, Chen Yongkai was considered the more capable one. But, it seems he’s still unreliable. After reaching a high position, he became arrogant and dismissive. This matter hasn’t been seen through as clearly as an old man like him would. In the lounge, Chen Yongkai knelt in place, dazed and lost in thought. He also held shares in the company, though very few. Now the board has directly removed him from his position, and half a lifetime of effort has gone to waste. I won’t accept this. He suddenly stood up, grabbed a chair, and smashed it violently against the wine cabinet in the corner. The glass doors shattered in response. Expensive wine bottles exploded one after another. Chen Yongkai gasped for breath, his eyes bloodshot, like a cornered beast in a rage. He yanked a picture frame off the wall and slammed it heavily to the ground. Then he stomped on it fiercely until the frame was deformed and the picture damaged. The lounge was in complete disarray. He regretted it, he shouldn’t have targeted Wang Chen, he overestimated himself and underestimated the Wang. Family’s Reaction But the deed is done, and wanting to turn back is already impossible. The entrance of Whale Capital Investment Company Limited was already filled with bosses and project leaders from various companies. The front desk was busier than ever, barely able to keep up of these people are all here seeking investment from Whale Capital. Moreover, the number is continuously increasing, with individuals arriving from all over the country. The receptionist is so busy that she doesn’t even have time to complain. It’s worth noting that when Whale Capital was initially making premium investments and competing for projects, these people were not this enthusiastic. Especially after. Brilliant Media, in conjunction with other companies, announced a ban on Whale Capital, refusing to accept any projects for investment on major platforms. This scared off quite a few project leaders, even those who felt that Whale Capital was not as simple as it seemed mostly adopted a wait-and-see attitude. Until a result is reached, they wouldn’t easily make a move. Now, just one day after the announcement from the Broadcasting Authority, these people’s attitudes have changed dramatically. They are the very definition of going with the wind. But one cannot blame them. The business world is indeed that cruel, and a slight misstep can lead to a plummet into the abyss. Every step feels like walking on thin ice. In the company’s reception room, several managers or owners from different companies are crammed into one space. Yet, there is not a hint of impatience in their eyes. They all hold documents hoping to secure an investment from Whale Capital. They no longer expect the premium investments that Whale Capital previously offered, they just want something close to market price. The identity and background of Whale Capital’s owner, Wang Chen, are simply terrifying. During this time, dozens of companies in the entertainment industry united against Whale Capital, only to be struck back hard, leaving them dazed. They witnessed it all, enjoying the spectacle. They originally thought Whale Capital would quietly exit under Brilliant Media’s ban, as Brilliant Media is still the sole king in the entertainment industry. They had prepared to continue seeking investment from brilliant media. Unexpectedly, Whale Capital not only stood firm but counterattacked with thunderous force. They finally understood why Whale Capital showed no reaction to brilliant media’s threats, appearing so calm and unbothered. They also finally realized why Wang Chen had the confidence to confront the entire entertainment industry. They had never seen such a spectacle. The usual tactics in the entertainment industry are to ban each other or impose restrictions, but Wang Chen played by his own rules. He directly brought out the trump card of the Broadcasting Authority. These companies targeting whale capital were like clowns, having no ability to resist under the principle of the situation. What could these entertainment companies use to fight against Wang Chen? Now that things have developed to this point, they don’t know if brilliant media has any other tricks up its sleeve, but they have seen Wang Chen’s strength. They couldn’t imagine what other means Chen Yongkai could use to turn the tables. These companies would have to be completely oblivious to the situation if they continued to resist. Whale Capital Strength is unprecedentedly powerful, with ample funds. Moreover, it has been rumored recently that Whale Capital only provides the money without interfering in how filming or production is done. A company that requires little effort, for a lot of money is exactly what they have always dreamed of. Given the current situation, if they could secure investment from Whale Capital, they would also gain a protective charm. As long as there are no other issues with the project, they wouldn’t have to worry about anyone sabotaging it in Huagua. This is why these project leaders rushed to Whale Capital’s company, eager to secure investment as quickly as possible. However, many secretly regretted not choosing to align with Whale Capital at the first opportunity when it was being banned by brilliant media. Now that the situation has been resolved, trying to seek investment from Whale Capital has reversed the dynamics. Previously, Whale Capital sought them for investment. Now, they are seeking investment from Whale Capital. Unless the project is genuinely good, it might be difficult to secure that investment. Most of them did not come here. with the mindset of absolutely needing to secure investment. Their main purpose for coming here now is to align themselves, to pay their respects. Whale Capital, needless to say, will be the absolute power in the entertainment industry in the future. As long as one isn’t a fool, it’s clear that Whale Capital can become a giant in the entertainment world. These companies in the entertainment industry will prosper as long as they establish a relationship with Whale Capital. Mr. Wang, what should we do with these companies? Manager Chen looked at Wang Chen in front of him, his eyes filled with awe. During this turmoil, Manager Chen had thought the company would fade away under the industry’s boycott. He had prepared for the worst, aiming to minimize the company’s losses. But unexpectedly, in a short time, the situation reversed. Whale Capital remained in scathe, while companies led by brilliant media were being investigated, fined, and restructured. Why did this happen? Manager Chen speculated that it must be the influence behind Wang Chan or Wang Sitsung that had intervened. Carefully select some good projects, and you can. Just send these people away, Wang Chen said lightly. Understood, boss. Manager Chen nodded and walked towards the office door. However, not long after he stepped out, Manager Chen pushed the door open and walked back in. Wang. Chen frowned and asked, is there anything else? A group of people has come to the company entrance, led by Chen Yongkai, Manager Chen said, his expression somewhat strange. Oh. Wang Chen was taken aback for a moment, then. Said with a half smile. At that moment, at the entrance of Whale Capital, Chen Yongkai stood with a group of people. The surrounding company employees looked at them with curiosity. Chen Yongkai goes without saying. Among. The rest were Zhang Ming, the president of Xingyao Film and Television, and several other company owners who had joined forces with brilliant media to boycott Whale Capital. Each one was a well-known figure in the entertainment. Industry. Normally, if this group of people spoke casually, it could cause a stir in the industry. It would be difficult for an ordinary person to even meet them. Yet now, these once mighty figures were gathered together, obediently. Standing at the entrance of Whale Capital. The company employees looked on with pride, casting sidelong glances at these once unassailable figures secretly taking out their phones to snap photos. They speculated about the purpose of these people’s visit. Manager Chen walked out of Wang Chen’s office. He frowned as he looked at the people in front of him, a glimmer of satisfaction flashing in his eyes. Chen Yongkai saw Manager Chen come out and quickly approached him. Manager Chen, I’ve heard so much about you. I’m Chen Yongkai from Brilliant Media. Chen Yongkai stood in front of Manager Chen, his face full of smiles but his expression was quite dejected. I’m Chen Yu, the general manager of Whale Capital. Is there something you need to discuss? Manager Chen shook his hand in feigned confusion. He knew very well why these people were here. They were the heads of companies that had previously responded to brilliant media’s call to blacklist Whale Capital. Chen Yongkai nodded and bowed slightly, saying, may I ask if Mr. Wang is here? We would like to discuss some matters with him in person. Ever since he was removed. From his position by the board, he had planned to go abroad to relax and avoid Wang Chen. He feared that Wang Chen would deal with brilliant media and then come after him. However, the old man had ordered him to personally apologize to Wang Chen and he had to obtain Wang Chen’s forgiveness today. To avoid the old man retracting his shares, he had no choice but to come here with this group of people. He just hoped that Wang Chen would be magnanimous and let him off the hook. Mr. Wang is not in the company. Is there something you need? Manager Chen said lightly. Upon hearing this, Chen Yongkai immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Ming, the president of Xingyao, film and television, pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and said to Manager Chen, could you please help us contact Mr. Wang? Just tell him we have matters regarding cooperation to discuss. Sorry, our Mr. Wang rarely comes to the company. Although I am the general manager of Whale Capital, I can’t call him unless it’s something particularly important. Manager Chen scanned the crowd with a formulaic smile, if you have something to say to me, it’s the same. If I can’t make a decision, I’ll help you contact General Manager Wang. Manager Chen, this matter is really urgent, Zhang Ming said, a bit anxious. We have prepared a detailed cooperation plan, and, his words suddenly, halted. This was because Manager Chen was looking at them with a serious expression, his eyes cold as ice. Chen Yongkai and Zhang Ming exchanged glances, their faces showing a hint of bitterness. At this point, they had no other option but to plead for Wang Chen’s forgiveness. If Wang Chen didn’t let them off the hook, given the current state of the company, bankruptcy was highly likely. We came this time to meet General Manager Wang, mainly to apologize. There may have been some misunderstandings in the marketplace before. Chen Yongkai thought of the old man’s admonitions and gritted his teeth as he spoke. Beside him, Zhang Ming also dropped the talk of cooperation and, added, all the mistakes are ours. The previous matters were our fault. We hope you can help convey this to General Manager Wang and it would be best if we could meet him to express our apologies in person. Zhang Ming regretted. The initial ruckus they caused against Wang Chen, he wanted to slap himself. He truly had lost his mind. Who knew how he could have thought that way back then? Otherwise, they wouldn’t have ended up in this situation. His Xinyou. Film and television was also a key focus. The losses wouldn’t be less than those of Hueguang media. The only difference was that he managed to keep his position and could still steer Xinyou film and television. This matter. Couldn’t be blamed on Chun Yong Kai. If anyone was to blame, it was himself. If he hadn’t been fanning the flames on the side, perhaps things wouldn’t have escalated to this point. Now, all he hoped was that Wang Chen would spare. Xingyao Film and Television. Yes, we all came to express our apologies to General Manager Wang. We hope Manager Chen can convey this. We all brought projects with us, I’m sure General Manager Wang will accept. Haha, Manager. Chen, I recently have a trainee under my name who told me she really admires a charming man like you and hopes to get to know you. The people who came with Chen Yongkai and Zhang Ming chimed in from the side. They were. All company owners in the entertainment industry. Previously, they had responded to Chen Yongkai’s call to jointly blacklist Wang Chen. Now that the fine notification had come, they couldn’t bear the pressure and had come here to plead for forgiveness. Otherwise, if this dragged on, their companies would be gone. The heads of other companies seeking cooperation with Jingtu and Capital looked on in shock at these people. They were all big shots in the entertainment industry. In the past, they had been imperious, still lingering in their hearts. Now, they were actually bowing their noble heads and speaking so humbly. But thinking about it, it seemed quite reasonable. Broadcasting and television authority had already issued a notice, those who were stubborn would be eliminated from this industry. They had no other options left. If there had been any other way, it wouldn’t have come to this. They watched these bosses with glee, who had once relied on their own power to exploit them in various ways, never taking them seriously. Now they had finally fallen into Wang Chen’s hands. One could only say that there was always someone. Better, if they hadn’t put their arrogant tactics on Jingtu and Capital, this outcome wouldn’t have happened. The power of Jing Tu and capital was truly immense, coming here today was indeed the right choice. Since they were paying. Their respects, they should pay them to the biggest one. Manager Chen listened to their chatter, feeling a bit bewildered. How could the seduction not work? Now they were trying to use beauty to charm him. He was almost swayed. You all wait here for a moment, I’ll help you contact General Manager Wang once I’m done with my business, Manager Chen frowned and said. Then he turned and left. Before coming, Wang Chen had already told him how to face these. people, and as his top confidant, he naturally had to carry out his wishes. Thank you, thank you, sorry for the trouble. Zhang Ming and the others hurriedly expressed their gratitude and sat down on a nearby bench under the guidance of the receptionist. Opposite them sat the project leader who had come to seek investment. Facing the unabashed gazes of these people, Chen Yongkai felt a surge of anger boiling inside him, but he had to suppress it. Once. Upon a time, these people had to check if he was in the mood just to meet him. Now, these pathetic directors dared to look at him like this. Their stares made Chen Yongkai feel uncomfortable, as if he were sitting on pins and needles. But he still had to wait for Wang Chen here. He could only endure it. As someone who had navigated the business world for decades, how could he not know that Wang Chen was toying with them? Manager Chen’s intentions were already clear. But for now, he could only endure it, allowing Wang Chen to humiliate them. Time passed slowly, minute by minute, and Chen Yongkai, Zhengming, and the others felt as if they were living through years, the time dragged on. Yet, they still did not wait for Wang Chen’s arrival. People around them moved about like they were at a zoo, constantly walking past and casting meaningful glances at them. What did they take them for? So damn. Frustrating. Even the customer service didn’t come to pour them a glass of water. But now, they didn’t dare to make a sound, they could only endure their thirst. They were afraid of doing something wrong that would give Wang Chen a reason to mess with them again. After finishing the lunch sent by their subordinates, they continued to wait pitifully for Wang Chen’s arrival. The sunlight outside the glass curtain wall gradually slanted to the west end. Chen Yongkai stared at the expensive watch on his wrist, licking his dry lips. Zhang Ming could no longer sit still and leaned against the wall, sitting down on the floor, indifferent to the gazes of others. His eyes were vacant. Inside Wang Chen’s office, Secretary Long Lily walked in wearing 10cm high heels, swaying her figure. She casually placed some fruit on the desk, her red lips curling slightly, that group is still out there. Loitering, really like a pack of stray dogs at the door, it’s so annoying to look at. Let them wait, the more anxious they are, the more interesting it will be later. He raised his eyes to look at Long Lily, his gaze wandering. Over her tailored professional outfit, finally resting on her long legs and black stockings. You’ve been working hard lately, what reward do you want? What I want, doesn’t President Wang know in his heart? Long Lily said with. A flirtatious glance, leaning closer to Wang Chen, her fingertip tracing his tie. Question mark. Why was Long Lily playing roleplay? Wang Chen immediately became interested. He raised an eyebrow, reached out to wrap his arm around Long. Lily’s waist, pulling her into his embrace, a playful smile curling at the corners of his mouth. What’s with this sudden interest today? I guess I have to cooperate well. Go on, my little secretary, what role do you want me to play? The domineering CEO, or the scheming tycoon? His fingertips caressed the delicate skin behind Long Lily’s ear, his voice low. Long Lily chuckled, swatting his hand away, picking up a strawberry from the desk and bringing it to Wang Chen’s lips. Of course, it’s President Wang who can satisfy all my requests. Then President Wang is here. Wang Chen swallowed the strawberry at his lips, laughing heartily. Long Lily held the strawberry, intimately feeding it into Wang Chen’s mouth, her cheeks flushed. At that moment, outside the office, Li Kai walked up to Chen Yongkai, Zhang Ming, and the others. Manager Chen is busy with project matters, so I came to give you an update. Is there any news? When will President Wang be back? Chen Yongkai’s eyes lit up and he quickly stood up. Li Kai nodded and said to the group, thank you for waiting all day, President Wang said he has matters. to attend to and won’t be coming to the company for now chen yong kai’s expression changed instantly was wang chen playing him his posture had already been low enough and waiting all day still wasn’t enough chen yong kai was about to explode with anger when zhang ming tugged at his shirt and said president wang is busy with countless affairs and has a lot on his plate does president wang have any other instructions nothing much just lee kai said what Li Kai suppressed the corners of his mouth that wanted to rise, his gaze sweeping over Chen Yongkai’s flushed face and Jiang Ming’s tense body, and said slowly, President Wang said, those who bring trouble upon themselves cannot live. Since you’ve done it, you must bear the consequences. Chen Yongkai and Jiang Ming’s faces stiffened. Li Kai paused for a moment and continued, you can go to the square downstairs tonight, holding a sign filled with apologies and live streaming for three hours. Kneel and sing conquer, and if you get a billion likes, maybe it will prove your sincerity. This is an insult. I am still from the Chen family. Chen Yongkai’s temples throbbed, and a metallic taste surged in his throat. This is just a suggestion, whether you want to do it or not is up to you. Zhang Ming staggered and leaned against the wall, his usual cunning somewhat broken, and he had to lower his voice, Manager Chen, can you be lenient? It was already embarrassing enough. If it was live-streamed across the internet, he wouldn’t be able to go out anymore, he would be recognized wherever he went. Total. Social death online. This was worse than killing him. Take care of yourselves. Li Kai shook his head and turned to leave. At 9 o’clock in the evening, below the central building in the Magic City, Shen Yung Kai, Zheng, Ming, and others were hesitantly kneeling in front of the Livestream camera. They held up a sign that read I’m sorry and other apologetic slogans. Welcome, family, to the Livestream of the Fallen Aristocracy. Internet Celebrity. Gene Kour and Yu Meng took on the role of hosts and approached the group brothers. Double tap the screen and see how these once prominent figures kneel and sing conquer. Instantly, over a hundred thousand viewers flooded. Into the Livestream. The comments exploded, wow, isn’t this the boss of Hueguang Media? This is Chen Yongkai, the boss of Hueguang Media, and these people are also bosses? What’s going on? Does anyone know? How can you not know anything? Haven’t you seen the entertainment news these days? Chen Yongkai’s throat rolled, his nails digging deep into his palm. His face was as red as a burning cloud. Wang Chen stood by the panoramic window, watching the performance below. Long Lily fed him cut fruit, honey, the Livestream has over a million viewers online in real time. Wang Chen chuckled softly, watching the live stream projected on the TV in front of him. Just. Like that, you were conquered. Cut off all escape routes. Chen Yongkai’s face turned red, his throat rolling up and down as he sang with difficulty. His hoarse voice mixed with sobs sounded particularly grating in the. Live stream. Zhengming followed beside him, echoing the song. Family, is this broken voice even singing? Go home and farm. Yu Meng immediately became displeased, my aunt could sing better than them. Ignoring Chen Yongkai’s. Murderous glare, Yu Meng interacted with the camera and the netizens. Refund. This is worse than killing pigs. Wasn’t Chen Yongkai quite arrogant before? Why isn’t he shouting now? Brothers, don’t like it. If it breaks a billion. Likes, we won’t get to hear the billionaire sing for us. The live stream of Jean Keur and Yu Meng exploded with various special effect gifs, making the two women laugh uncontrollably. Chen Yongkai looked at the millions of viewers. In the live stream, but the likes had just barely crossed 10 million. He was instantly dumbfounded. The comments kept coming with harsh criticisms, ugly rejections, and so on. Zhang Ming Chen Yongkai suddenly grabbed Zhang Ming’s arm, his nails almost digging into the other’s skin, this won’t do, even if we sing until tomorrow, we won’t gather enough likes for a billion. What should we do then? Zhang Ming also felt helpless. This thing was really treating them like they were from a foreign country. Get someone to buy some fake engagement. Contact the platform operators again and get my likes boosted, he whispered, afraid of being overheard by others. Alright, you cover for me. Zhang Ming hesitated for a moment. Chen Yongkai sang even more passionately, stepping in front of Zhang Ming. Zhang Ming secretly took out his phone to send a message. Chen Yongkai, with his hoarse voice, repeated conquer once more, his exaggerated movements capturing everyone’s attention. A crowd gradually formed around them, erupting in laughter. The central building is one of the most luxurious places in the magic city and the people around were mostly employees, executives, or bosses from world-renowned companies, all dressed fashionably and trend dully. There were even a few men nearby, dressed in suits with Morgan Chase badges hanging around their necks, stopping to watch. Family. The likes are about to break 30 million. Jean. Kor held her phone up to Chen Yongkai’s face. Family, send gifts, no need for likes, let these two big shots kneel until dawn. Damn, stop liking it. Where did these idiots come from? How can they like it like this? I really can’t believe it, a bunch of useless teammates. The barrage of comments refreshed wildly, filling the screen with complaints. Cold sweat beaded on. Zhang Ming’s forehead as his phone suddenly vibrated, receiving a message. All troops deployed, we will reach 100 million likes in 10 minutes. He took a deep breath and nodded slightly. Add Chen Yongkai. Chen Yongkai’s eyes lit up instantly and his hoarse singing gained a hint of cheerfulness. When the number of likes finally broke the 100 million mark, Chen Yongkai and Zhang Ming stood up simultaneously and ran without daring to stop for a moment. Hey, don’t go. Yu Ming chased after them for a few steps, finally stopping to watch their retreating figures. Stamping her foot. In the cold wind, the two figures stumbled and disappeared into the night, leaving only the booing of the onlookers. After a hard-fought escape, Chen Yongkai and Zhang, Ming were stopped by an investment manager from a capital swallowing firm. Chen Yongkai’s temples throbbed, the anger accumulated in front of the livestream exploding in an instant, what more? Do you want? The likes have exceeded 100 million. Does Wang Chen’s word not count? He suddenly tore open his collar, the veins on his neck bulging, if you want to kill or maim, do it. Quickly, I’m done playing. Zhang Ming grabbed Chen Yongkai’s arm, signaling him not to act impulsively. The other company bosses also looked grim. What happened today was simply the darkest moment they had ever encountered in their lives. They had lost face to the point of embarrassment. Li Kai looked at their disheveled appearance, slowly taking out a cigarette and lighting it. President Wang said this matter is settled. But, just as Chen Yongkai let out a sigh of relief hearing the word but made his heart leap to his throat, but what? Li Kai blew smoke in. Chen Yongkai’s face, President Wang said if you dare to pull any more tricks behind the scenes, next time it won’t be as simple as a live apology. Watch your lives. A hint of undisguised. Killing intent flickered in Li Kai’s eyes. Wang Chen had saved his life. He had no way to repay him. If these people dared to retaliate against Wang Chen, he would make them pay the price, even if it cost him his life. Chen Yongkai and Zhang Ming looked at Li Kai’s murderous demeanor, realizing he was not joking. They shivered all over. They nodded vigorously, forcing out smiles that. were uglier than crying, and said in unison, understood, we absolutely won’t dare. We will definitely be honest from now on. President Wang is magnanimous, we know we were wrong, and we will never make the same mistake again. The others quickly echoed. Jiang Ming even placed his hands in front of him, slightly bowing, adopting a fawning posture, his eyes filled with fear and flattery. Cold sweat trickled down Chen Yongkai’s forehead and he hurriedly wiped it with his sleeve, afraid that an inappropriate move would provoke the other party again. Manager Li, please rest. Assured, we will definitely remember President Wang’s teachings. Jiang Ming continued to force a smile, though it was quite stiff. Chen Yongkai also wore a smiling face, repeatedly muttering, I wouldn’t dare. Until manager Chen turned to leave, the two maintained their humble and fawning posture. It took a long time before they dared to straighten their backs. At this moment, their dignity had long been trampled to dust, only hoping that this nightmare would end soon. After returning, Chen Yongkai could no longer face anyone. The next day, he took a flight abroad and never came back. Zhang Ming also resigned from his position in the company and found a professional manager to help manage the business. He no longer appeared in public. However, the business of Hueguang Media and Xingyao Film and Television had severely shrunk. The stock price also plummeted. The former glory was gone. Jingtuan Capital’s development in the entertainment industry was getting better and better, with project leaders from other companies or university students coming every day with scripts to invest. As long as it was a quality project, Wang Chen welcomed them. All. In a short time, he invested another 6,800,000,000. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 6,426,000,000, with a double cashback of 12 ,852,000,000. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 642,600 system points. In the evening, Tianmu Palace, the doorbell suddenly rang. Wang Chin smiled as he looked at Karina walking in. Karina stepped. Into the foyer in a pair of 10-centimeter black-red-bottomed high heels, the diamonds embedded in the heels swing gracefully with her steps. Her nose was high and straight, with a delicate curve at the tip, complementing her full lips. Her long golden hair was casually tied up, with a few strands falling by her ears. Her deep-set eyes seemed to hide the mysterious blue of Lake Baikal. And beneath her thick, curled eyelashes, a pair of emerald eyes shimmered with an amber glow. The corners of her eyes were slightly raised, naturally carrying a hint of alluring charm. Karina walked up to Wang Chen in her high heels, swaying gracefully, and said with a happy face, Brother Wang Chen, I missed you so much. As she spoke, she reached out to wrap her arms around Wang Chen’s neck, almost pressing her entire body against him. Wang Chen instinctively wrapped his arms around her waist and leaned down to kiss her forehead lightly, You are my treasure, of course I missed you. Karina’s eyes sparkled as she surveyed her surroundings, her gaze sweeping past the wine cabinet and fish tank, before being instantly captivated by the floor-to-ceiling window. That occupied an entire wall. Outside the window, the bustling scene of Luji Azui came into view. The Oriental Pearl Tower and the surrounding skyscrapers were arranged in an orderly manner, and, under the glow of the setting sun, the glass curtain walls reflected a warm orange light blending with the shimmering waves of the Huangpu River. This view is just too amazing. Karina couldn’t help but exclaim, her mouth instinctively opening. She quickly walked to the window, her face almost pressed against the glass, looking down from here, it feels like the entire magic city is at my feet. It’s okay, after looking for a while, it’s just like this, Wangchen said, hands in his pockets, following behind her with a smile on his lips. He raised his hand, pointing. To the distant Bund’s international architecture, standing here, you can take in the historical depth of the century-old Bund and the modern prosperity of Luji Asui, unique in its own right. How much does this house cost? It must be very expensive. Karina turned around, her eyes filled with curiosity and surprise. The living room before her was extremely high. A giant crystal. Chandelier hung from the ceiling, its dazzling light pouring down, illuminating every detail of the room. Top-quality leather sofas surrounded a coffee table carved from a single piece of natural. Jade. Simple yet luxurious. Not much, about two billion, Wang Chen replied with a smile. Karina suddenly turned around, her emerald eyes wide open, two, two billion? Is that in Hua Xia? Currency? It can only be in Hua Xia currency. Wang Chen smiled and playfully scratched her high nose, her voice involuntarily rose, golden curls trembling slightly with her movements, this is. Just too outrageous, it’s 200 million. Karina’s cheeks flushed, and as she turned, her elbow accidentally knocked over a jade sculpture nearby. The sculpture fell to the ground with a dull. Thud. Ah. Karina gasped, her face paling, her emerald eyes instantly misting over, how could I be so careless? Wang Chin bent down to pick up the jade sculpture, suddenly chuckling softly. Don’t worry, it’s not a big deal. It’s not even something valuable, so don’t stress about it. Seeing her still tense, he reached out to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes. You. Scared me to death, I thought it was going to break. I can’t afford to pay for it, Karina let out a long sigh, patting her heaving chest. Before she could finish her sentence, Wang Chen suddenly tossed the jade sculpture aside, picked Karina up in his arms, startling her into wrapping her arms around his neck and letting out a soft gasp. Since you’re so afraid of compensation, why not make it up to me in another way? Wang Chen carried her towards the sofa, gently placing her on the luxurious leather couch, then following her down, his nose almost touching hers. I think this jade sculpture must be broken. This is quite a loss for me, you really need to compensate me properly. His voice was low and hoarse, warm breath brushing against her flushed cheeks. Karina wrapped her arms around his neck, her eyes sparkling with allure. What does Mr. Wang plan to do to make me compensate? Of course, it’s her compensation. Ha ha ha, the two were immersed in this ambiguous atmosphere. In the distance, the sound of a steam whistle from the Huangpu River seemed particularly prolonged, waves crashing against the banks on both sides of the Pujang. Tour boats passed by like arrows. At three in the morning. After finishing the battle, Wangchen glanced at the sleeping Karina, a hint of affection in his eyes. Then he spoke. To the system in his mind, system, open the personal information panel. Ding. Okay, host, your personal information panel is now open. Host, Wangchen age, 20 height, 188 charm, 120, the limit for normal people is 100, physique, 120, the limit for normal people is 100, stamina, 120, the limit for normal people is 100, entries, double cashback, entry effect, all reasonable. expenses will be refunded double dot extreme physique entry effect from this moment on you are the pinnacle of human physique dot solidification entry effect your physical condition will always be at its peak eye of truth entry effect the mysterious power that opens the door to truth all disguises will be exposed under its gaze machine soul delight entry effect when you operate any machinery you will achieve a state of unity between man and machine with you and the machine and the machine in you dot succubus in the world entry effect your charm is Irresistible, girls will be drawn to you.

Points, 1203. 122 Points. Huasha Coins, 46,991 ,391,456. Wang Chin stared at the panel where the funds were about to reach 50 billion, his throat involuntarily rolling up and down. Even with his current mindset, facing such an astronomical figure he couldn’t help but feel a bit astonished. This amount of money, let alone an ordinary person, even for someone like Wang Sikong, the son of the richest. Man in Hua Gua, the top-tier rich second generation, seemed utterly unattainable in his eyes. Wang Sikong could only wait for old Wang to pass away or take over the family business early to have that much money. Last night, Karina was still marveling at the nearly 200 million value of the Tianmu Palace. The money in his bank card was enough to buy 270 Tianmu Palaces, with some left over. Wang Chen’s gaze shifted to the points column, where the 1203 and 122 points stood out prominently on the screen. The points were unprecedentedly abundant. Moreover, more than 10 special entries had already covered various fields such as life and competition. Wang Chen showed a contemplative expression. For now, these entries were sufficient, and he would temporarily save these points. He would wait until there was a need or a big wave came later. Wang Chen glanced at the panel again, then closed the system. He turned around and embraced the fragrant, soft Karina, sinking back into dreamland once more. As noon approached, on the campus of Fudan University in Modu, Karina held Wang Chen’s arm, walking along the green path of the campus. Tall French parasol trees lined the main road in neat rows, their branches and leaves intertwining, casting mottled shadows on the ground. Students either gathered in small groups discussing. Their studies are hurried along, radiating youthful vitality. Karina was now wearing a white Chanel twill coat. The fitted cut accentuated her slender waist. Underneath, she wore a black silk. Dior shirt, the collar slightly open, revealing her graceful collarbone. On the bottom, she had on a pair of Gucci skinny jeans that hugged her straight legs. Her feet were adorned with a pair. Of Valentino high heels, instantly elevating Karina’s already striking mixed Russian-Chinese beauty. This outfit was purchased by Wang Chen and Karina before coming to school, costing a total. of 56 ,800 yuan. As they walked down the school street, they attracted many curious glances from students, who pointed and whispered. However, their attention was drawn to Wang Chen beside Karina. Recently, the internet had been buzzing with news about Wang Chen. The video of Chen Yongkai and Jiang Ming apologizing to Wang Chen downstairs at the central building last night was still being wildly shared online. Moreover, Wang Chen was good friends with top-tier second-generation figures like Wang Sikong and Qin Fun. Such people, usually out of reach, were now at their school. and he was with the campus beauty Karina. This made the students even more curious. Was Karina also Wang Chen’s girlfriend? How many beautiful girls had been revealed online recently? Karina, linking her arm with Wang Chen’s, looked at the envious gazes from others, her face filled with joy. She didn’t mind that Wang Chen had stolen her spotlight. Instead, she hoped for even more of such attention. The more outstanding Wang Chen was, the more it proved her good taste in finding such a wonderful boyfriend. Reality was indeed like that. With Wang Chen’s family background. Plus his height and looks, he was top -notch in every aspect. All these advantages were concentrated in Wang Chen alone. He was simply a favored child of heaven, the only son of the heavens. Even if Wang Chen had many girlfriends, not just her, and even one from the neighboring school recently, she didn’t care.At least Wang Chen from Fudan University only has her as a girlfriend. The surrounding girls, seeing her like this, practically wished they could take her place, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy. They took out their phones to snap pictures of Wang Chen and Karina, posting them on the campus forum in Douyin. Instantly, it sparked a flurry of discussions. Some jealous individuals claimed that this mixed-race beauty must have used some tricks to charm Wang Chen. If it were them, they could do it too, and so on. Others were purely envious, envious of Karina’s good fortune. There were even some online who criticized Wang Chen harboring biases against Chinese women questioning why he would date a foreigner. They speculated that someone like Karina might be beautiful now, but in a few years, as she aged, Wang Chen would likely dump her, and so on. However, most people still maintained a friendly attitude towards Wang Chen and Karina, quietly liking the videos. Karina occasionally turned to look at Wang Chen, her eyes, filled with his image, not paying any mind to the comments online. Just having a part of Wang Chen made her content. Karina and Wang Chen shared various amusing stories with each other. Karina, seemed to have endless things to say, recounting her life in Russia to Wang Chen. Wang Chen kept smiling, nodding from time to time. The tales of winter in Russia filled Wang Chen with longing. Was the primeval forest of Siberia really that beautiful? How did it compare to the Winter Palace and the Forbidden City? And he definitely wanted to experience just how thrilling the hunting Karina spoke of could be. Was tiger meat really that delicious? As the events in the entertainment industry came to a close, the investment projects began to take shape. With ample funding, directors, producers, and casting were moving quickly. Everyone was eager to see their works come to fruition. The capital-swallowing investments in various fields faced no obstacles and investment. Managers were busy working every day. This allowed Wang Chen to have his own time to do what he wanted. School had started for quite a while and he had spent more time in bed than in class. Now he had even come to Karina’s school. Honey, why don’t we just not go? Karina suddenly stopped, hesitating for a moment before speaking. Wang Chen raised his hand to tuck a loose strand of hair behind her ear. What’s wrong? Afraid I’ll embarrass you? Though Wang Chen’s words were teasing, his gaze noticed her tense body. I’ll just tell the principal that you don’t have time to. Come, after all, your money doesn’t come from thin air. It doesn’t matter to me, money is just a number. Wang Chen shook his head, comforting her. Besides, my precious girlfriend is still studying here, and I need to trouble the school leaders to look after you. If I’m not around someday and you get bullied, I won’t have time to regret it. Karina bit her lip, wanting to say something, but Wang Chen took her hand and walked towards the principal’s office. In no time, they arrived at the school’s faculty office building. Wang Chen led Karina into the elevator, taking. them to the top floor of the office building. Then they stopped at the principal’s office. Wang Chen held Karina’s small hand and knocked on the office door. Please come in. Soon, a deep male. Voice came from inside. Without hesitation, Wang Chen pushed the door open and walked in. Upon seeing the scene inside the office, Wang Chen’s expression turned to one of surprise. The principal’s office was filled with people. When they saw Wang Chen enter, they quickly stood up and walked towards him. At the forefront was a man in his 50s, dressed in a crisp white shirt, his hair. meticulously styled. From a distance, he extended his hand towards Wang Chen and said, Hello, young master Wang. You didn’t let us know you were coming. We were going to come out to greet. You. My apologies. Principal Chen, you’re too polite. Wang Chen nodded and smiled Chen Shu away as the president of Fudan University. After learning that Karina is Wang Chen’s girlfriend, he requested her help to convey a message, hoping that Wang Chen could donate a sum to the school. This would be used for the maintenance of the school’s infrastructure and scholarships for underprivileged students. Hello, President. Karina greeted him as well. As a student of Fudan, she had never met such a friendly President Chen during her time at the university. The other school leaders in the room were also present. The head of the teaching department was almost beaming, shaking hands with Wang Chen and exchanging pleasantries. It was quite difficult to meet these people. On ordinary days, most had only seen them during the opening ceremony. You’ve worked hard too, Karina. President Chen glanced at Karina and said kindly. You are a student of our school, so, why are you so nervous? Just be yourself, no need to be formal. Karina nodded, her expression relaxing a bit. However, in front of the school leaders, she still felt somewhat awkward. Only by looking at Wang Chen beside her did she feel a little better. She had grown up abroad, and logically, with the educational environment there, she shouldn’t be afraid of teachers. But for some reason, upon returning to the country, seeing those teachers and school leaders lined up on the shelves made her feel intimidated. President Chen didn’t say much more to Karina and turned to. Wang Chen, smiling, Young Master Wang, you can donate to our school, yet you don’t want us to promote your deeds among the students. Such character should really be a model for the students to learn from. Karina is also a good student of our school, excelling in both character and academics. The school is proud to have students like you. Young Master Wang, you declined the donation ceremony and we don’t know how to thank you. All of our teachers extend our sincerest gratitude to you. President Chen continue to Wang Chen, rest assured, Young Master Wang, this donation. will only be known to our teachers. We guarantee that the news won’t leak out and we will keep it under wraps to avoid disturbing you.” Wang Chen nodded. President Chen, as expected of the president of Fudan University, was meticulous in his dealings. He agreed to donate 100 million. This had already given him great face. If this matter were to spread, who knows how many schools and organizations would come to him for donations. He mentioned this proactively, clearly to reassure Wang Chen. 100 million. For an ordinary person, that is an astronomical figure. But for Fudan, 100 million is not a big deal. The Ministry of Education allocates them a considerable amount every year. However, President Chen did not look down on Wang Chen because of the money. Instead, he treated him with utmost respect. To someone in his position, such a sum was nothing. It was Wang Chen’s background that he valued. Wang Chen made no demands. He simply brought Karina along. President Chen understood his intention. Clearly, Karina was just an average student, but in his words, she became an exemplary student with outstanding character and academics. In the office, all the major teachers of the school got to know Karina, and in the future, they would surely take special care of her. Thank you, President Chen. Wang Chen glanced at Karina. Clearly, she still didn’t understand the social dynamics of Hua Gua and was just obediently standing behind Wang Chen. Not a bother, not a bother. President Chen quickly waved his hand and said, we should be the ones thanking young master Wang. With your donation, our school can improve the campus environment. The students should be thanking you. Wang Chen didn’t say much. More, he just took out his phone. In the presence of President Chen and the teachers, he called Long Lily. In no time, the 100 million donation was transferred to the school’s public. Account. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 100 million, double cashback of 200 million. Ding. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10 ,000 system points. After. The donation was completed a Principal Chen walked up to Wang Chen’s side. The teachers also gathered around. The Director of Education took out a donation plaque and handed it to Wang Chen and Principal Chen. It read a slogan thanking Wang Chen for donating 100 million to the university. 3, 2, 1. The Director adjusted the focus and pressed the camera button. The moment the photo was captured. The donation ceremony concluded successfully. Young Master Wang, rest assured, your donation will definitely be used for the students and the school’s development. I guarantee there will be no misuse of public funds. I will have the school’s finance department record the purpose of every single expenditure for your review at any time. No need for. That, I trust Principal Chen is wholeheartedly dedicated to the school’s development. Wang Chen smiled, this donation will definitely be used wisely. The students of the university are truly. Fortunate to have a principal like you. Principal Chen gave Wang Chen enough face. Of course, Wang Chen wouldn’t hold back on such formalities, it takes a crowd to lift a flower palanquin. Moreover, he genuinely didn’t care whether the 100 million was misused. His background was right there. Principal Chen wouldn’t dare. Not at all, as the principal of the university, it is my lifelong honor to cultivate talent for the country. Young Master Wan’s generosity today adds bricks to our path of nurturing talent. In the future, the school will ensure this funding is used effectively, whether for building new laboratories or supporting underprivileged students, making sure every penny is spent transparently. Principal Chen puffed out his chest slightly. A hint of pride flashing in his eyes. The director of education quickly chimed in, a flattering smile plastered on his face, yes, yes. Young Master Wang’s noble intentions mean that with this. Funding, the talents we cultivate at the university can all become pillars of the nation and this cannot be separated from your support. Principal Chen patted Wang Chen’s shoulder, having a young. Talent like young Master Wang who cares about education is a blessing for our education sector. Wang Chen’s words made Principal Chen beam with joy. As the principal of the university, being. praised for being beloved by students made him happier than being complimented on his position especially since it was wang chen who said it he almost wanted to take out his phone to record wang chen’s words and show off to old friends karina stood beside wang chen watching as everyone around him fawned over him once these people would look up to him wherever they went but now due to wang chen’s identity and donation their attitudes had made a complete 180 degree turn money truly is a good thing young master wang i wonder if you have time for a meal at the school cafeteria The teachers are all here. The director of education and other school leaders looked at Wang Chen expectantly. Those who could come here were all high-ranking officials of the school. Ordinary teachers clearly did not qualify to be here. For ordinary students, they were all figures of authority. They were eager to curry favor. But for Wang Chen, their identities meant nothing. Behind Wang Chen was the Wang family. During this time, Wang Chen’s popularity online was extraordinarily high. No matter how much he tried to hide his background, it had still been uncovered. In the face of Wang Chen’s terrifying background, these small school leaders naturally wanted to ingratiate themselves with him, hoping to catch his eye and soar to new heights. Wang Chen frowned slightly and nodded, since all the teachers are so enthusiastic, if I refuse, it would seem ungracious. A faint smile curled at the corners of his lips, and beneath his, seemingly amiable words lay the calmness unique to someone in a position of power. Ha, as long as young master Wang doesn’t mind us old folks. Principal Chen’s face broke into wrinkles of laughter upon hearing Wang Chen agree to the meal. You are all my mentors, how could I mind? Wang Chen smiled. The group then walked out of the principal’s office and came to the lower level of the office building. Their presence immediately attracted the attention of the students on campus. Principal Chen, the director of education, and other school leaders, these people are usually hard to come by, let alone gather together. What surprised them was that Wang Chen and Karina were actually surrounded by these leaders. Wang Chen wore a calm expression. Karina seemed a bit nervous, but it was manageable. Principal Chen and the leaders wore smiles on their faces, sharing amusing anecdotes. They were full of disdain for the recent audacity of Huiguan media in challenging, whale capital. Their words were filled with compliments for Wang Chen. The students watched in astonishment. Isn’t Wang Chen a student too? How can he appear so nonchalant in front of the leaders? When they meet their instructors, they tend to be a bit timid, let alone figures like the principal and the director of education. The disparity was simply astronomical. One student took. out their phone to record the scene and posted it on the campus forum. Topics like Wang Chen and the national husband were already under scrutiny and once posted, people quickly clicked to watch. Oh my gosh, compared to Wang Chen, I look so dull as a student. So jealous. It turns out the gap between people is even bigger than between dogs. Isn’t the male got a student from the finance university across the street? How did he end up with our school’s leaders? I think they’re heading to the cafeteria. I need to go check it out. Woo woo, senior Karina is so beautiful. How could she be taken away by Wang Chen? Hell, young master Wang is so handsome. That gaze is killing me, I can’t take it anymore, sisters. The school’s forum, which had just calmed down, erupted again because of Wang Chen. Wang Chen and Karina, under Principal Chen’s lead, arrived at the school cafeteria. They entered a private room reserved for school leaders. At Principal Chen’s invitation, Wang Chen took a seat, and he sat beside Wang Chen. Soon, the dishes were served. They were all home-cooked meals, but surprisingly delicious. the director of education. Bent down to pour wine for Wang Chen, smiling obsequiously, young master wine, this is a 20-year-old vintage that our principal has been saving, specially opened for you. Karina, try. This. Principal Chen personally pushed a bowl of chicken soup in front of her, his gaze much gentler than usual, this was specially simmered for three hours by the kitchen, give it a taste. The teacher’s present cast concerned glances, whereas in the past, they couldn’t even be bothered to approve Karina’s request to change dorms. After a few rounds of drinks, the atmosphere in the. Private room grew increasingly lively, with the aroma of wine mingling with compliments. Principal Chen, glowing with health, stood up with a wine glass in hand, his face full of disdain, and, cleared his throat, saying, Young Master Wang, Hueguang Media is simply overestimating itself, daring to wrestle with whale capital, isn’t that like an ant trying to stop a chariot? Exactly. The owner of Hueguang Media doesn’t even weigh their own worth, in front of Young Master Wang, their little capital operations are just child’s play. After suffering such a huge loss this time, they’ll probably have to lay low for a while. The director of education hurriedly chimed in, putting down his chopsticks and laughing. Other teachers nodded in agreement, each taking turns to criticize Hueguang media’s foolishness. Some mentioned Hueguang media’s previous failed investments causing everyone to burst into laughter. Others brought up their chaotic internal management and high employee turnover rate. For a moment, Hueguang media seemed to have become a streak rat in everyone’s eyes, with nothing commendable about it. Wang Chen maintained a smile, listening. leisurely to everyone’s discussions, occasionally lifting his wine glass to take a sip but not saying much. He knew well that these people were merely trying to curry favor with him following his lead. He had seen too many such scenes and understood that these flattering words were just for show and shouldn’t be taken seriously. As the toasts and conversations flowed, the atmosphere at the dining table became even more heated. Principal Chen introduced a dean to Karina who was the head of her department. The dean repeatedly assured her that she could come to him for anything. The school leaders present were all seasoned veterans engaging in other academic issues might not be my strong suit, but when it comes to dining culture, I am well versed. With them around, the atmosphere on site could never cool down. Especially since they were eager to befriend Wang Chen, their enthusiasm was palpable. Wang Chen faced these old foxes with ease. With his credentials, he accepted toasts from everyone without hesitation. Karina sat quietly to the side, listening to the lively discussions, but felt a twinge of discomfort in her heart. She recalled not long. ago when she was just an unnoticed little campus flower and those school leaders looked down on students like her. Yet now, due to Wang Chen’s status and this donation, their attitude had undergone a complete transformation, which she found quite ironic. The dinner continued, with everyone still surrounding Wang Chen, showering him with flattery. Karina had also drunk a little. The meal lasted two and a half hours before it finally came to an end. Everyone except Wang Chen was quite drunk. Principal Chen could barely articulate his words, mumbling incoherently, after bidding. Farewell to them, Wang Chen escorted Karina back to her dormitory. Then he went to the parking area and sent a message to Ren Ningxuang. In the sweltering summer, students were all in there. Dorms avoiding the heat giving Wang Chen a bit of leisure time. Before long, Wang Chen saw Ren Ningxuang jogging towards him. Her eyes lit up upon seeing him and she quickened her pace. The sound of her high heels striking the ground echoing in the empty campus. Why are you in such a hurry? Wang Chen smiled warmly. Aren’t I just afraid you’d be waiting too long? Run. Ning Shuang brushed her wing-touseled hair, the tip still carrying a faint scent of perfume. She noticed a few wine stains on Wang Chen’s clothes, her expression dimming slightly, but she only. Asked softly, was the dinner lively? Pretty boring, just some formalities, he replied, handing the keys to Ren Ning Shuang. At the dinner table, he was the important figure, and being toasted. Was inevitable. However, getting him drunk was out of the question. If it weren’t for the concern of being checked for drunk driving, he could have driven himself. Ren Ning Shuang nodded as she. Took the keys, not asking further questions, and sat in the driver’s seat of the Bugatti Chiron. She had a driver’s license, but it was her first time driving such a high-end luxury car. Once in. The car, Ren Ningxuang stared at the dashboard, feeling a bit dazed. Press the brake, then push the ignition button, Wang Chen leaned in closer, the smell of alcohol wafting over. His distinctly. Knuckled fingers pointed to the left side of the dashboard. Wang Chen’s palm rested on the back of her hand gripping the steering wheel, gently adjusting the angle, the steering wheel is. More sensitive than a regular car, half a turn is enough. Ren Ningxuan’s throat tightened, flustered. I’m a bit nervous, she said pitifully, shouldn’t we just find a driver? This car was a. Bugatti Chiron, worth over 70 million. She had seen the video of Wang Chen buying this car on the news. If she were to damage such a luxury vehicle, not to mention the repair costs, Wang Chen would surely be upset. What’s there to be nervous about? It’s just a car, Wang Chen smiled, just drive with confidence, I’ll keep an eye on you, it’ll be fine. But if I scrape it, you. Won’t be upset, right? No matter how expensive the car is, it’s just four wheels to me, they’re all the same. And if it really gets damaged, I’ll just give it to you. Ren Ningxuan couldn’t help but feel speechless, you can just give away a 70 million car like that? Do you think this is a market for buying vegetables? She suddenly thought about bumping into the car next to them, but it was just a fleeting thought. However, after Wang Chen’s playful banter, Ren Ningxuan felt much more relaxed. Following Wang Chen’s instructions, she drove the car smoothly out of the university. She drove slowly, which made Wang Chen a bit speechless, but there were no other incidents along the way. Ren Ningxuan gradually relaxed. Soon, the car entered the Zhongliang. Hai Jing number one. After parking, Ren Ningxuan let out a heavy sigh feeling a bit weak in her hands and feet. Ren Ningxuan picked up a bottle of chilled fruit juice after arriving at the Tianmu Palace with Wang Chen. Only after finishing it did she feel a bit restored. Brother Wang Chen, please don’t make me drive next time, you scared me to death. Ren Ningxuan’s bright eyes sparkled. Her eyelashes still glistening with tiny beads of sweat from her nervousness shimmering under the light. She slumped on the leather sofa, her long legs casually crossed her pink slippers, swaying gently with her movements. When we turned earlier, I felt like my hands were about to go numb. Wang Chin casually unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, revealing his delicate collarbone, and poured two glasses of whiskey at the bar. He raised an eyebrow at her, so now you understand the joy of driving a top supercar? Don’t tease me, I felt like I was piloting a fighter jet the whole time. Don’t even mention driving. With such a beautiful girlfriend lying in front of you, what are you talking about cars for? Is your precious wife no longer charming? Ren Ningxuan puffed out her cheeks, pretending to be angry. Her eyes twinkled mischievously, and then she broke into a playful smile, except the judgment of the beautiful girl. Before Wang Chen could react, Ren Ningxuan stood up on her tiptoes and showered his face with kisses. After a long while, she finally released him, looking at the lipstick marks all over his face with a satisfied smile. She gazed up at Wang Chen, her eyes filled with his image. Her life had changed because of him. Wang Chen was like a beam of light, illuminating her life and filling it with brilliance. Wang Chen looked at the smiling Ren Ning Shuang in front of him, his lips unconsciously curling up as he tucked her loose hair behind her ear. So, have you been completely judged by, the beautiful girl now? He looked down at the messy lipstick marks on his shirt collar and she, his eyes full of indulgence. Ren Ning Shuang tilted her head, admiring his handsome appearance, and suddenly tugged at his loosened tie, pulling him toward the sofa. Wang Chen sat down in response, wrapping his arm around her waist. Ran Ningxuan gasped as she fell into his embrace, there. Noses almost touching. An ambiguous atmosphere lingered in the small space. Brother Wang Chen, do you know? Ran Ningxuan suddenly quieted down, gently tracing his eyebrows and eyes with her. Fingers. I used to think life was just about going through the motions of work and marriage, day after day, until I met you. Her voice gradually lowered, her fingers stopping at his brow. Bone. You are like an unexpected downpour, soaking my mundane life yet also allowing me to see the rainbow. Wang Chen’s heart stirred slightly as he held her restless hand and placed a kiss. In her pong. Then I should thank this downpour for letting me meet the most special rainbow. He lowered his head, resting his forehead against hers. From now on, whether it’s sunny or rainy, let me be with you. Ren Ningxuan’s eyes suddenly felt warm and she wrapped her arms around his neck, burying her face in his embrace. Here, there was a familiar scent and the strong heartbeat of Wang Chen, which inexplicably reassured her. You promised not to go back on your word. She murmured, her voice nasally. If one day you dare to leave me, I will. I will dismantle your 70 million car and sell it for parts. Wang Chen chuckled at her words, tightening his arms to hold her firmly. That I must keep a close eye on you, after all, my exclusive driver can dismantle even a supercar when she gets angry. He leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on her face. Hubby. Ren Ning Shuang smiled. What’s wrong? I just learned a new set of game combos from Japan. Do you want to try it? Ren Ningxuan said shyly, her voice soft. Hearing this, Wang Chen quickly replied, then I need to see how well you learned it, whether you grasp the essence of the game. Then why aren’t you making a move? Ren Ningxuan’s head lowered even more. Wang Chen chuckled softly and picked Ren Ningxuan up, heading toward the bedroom, after a fierce battle. Of offense and defense, Ren Ningxuan, drenched in sweat, fell asleep in Wang Chen’s arms. In the face of Wang Chen’s superhuman physical prowess, it was clear that few women could withstand him. Holding Ren Ningxuang in his embrace, Wang Chen also drifted into a deep sleep. The next day, as Wang Chen was sending Ren Ningxuang back to school, he suddenly received a call from Wang. Sikong. He looked at the sparse traffic outside the culinan and answered the call. Old Wang, what’s up? Do you know something big has happened? Wang Sitsong’s voice was filled with excitement. The sky is falling? Wang Chen joked casually. What sky is falling? Haven’t you seen the news? Wang Sikong replied, somewhat baffled. Wang Chen smiled helplessly, I’m so busy every day. Where do I have time to watch the news? Well, it’s that Yang Mi is getting a divorce. So what if she’s getting a divorce? Wang Chen said nonchalantly. His indifferent reaction made. Wang Sikong a bit agitated, words stuck in his throat. Yang Mi, Yang Mi is getting a divorce. After a long pause, Wang Sikong finally spoke, don’t you have any reaction at all? What reaction? Should I have? It’s not like I’m the one getting divorced from Yang Mi, Wang Chen replied irritably. You didn’t call just for this, did you? Why are you so concerned about a female celebrity? Wang Chin had long known that Yang Mi would be getting a divorce during this time, so he was not surprised by Wang Sitsong’s words. He had no other thoughts about Yang Mi and naturally didn’t. Want Wang Sikong to be so enthusiastic. But she’s a big star, Yang Mi. Aren’t you even a little moved? Wang Sikong pressed on. Old Wang, you shouldn’t be lacking in women, why are you so obsessed with Yang Mi? Wang Chin shook his head, helplessly saying. Wang Sikong was famously fond of Yang Mi, but in his previous life, after Yang Mi’s divorce, there were still no rumors about. Him, clearly indicating he had no chance. It’s normal for me to like Yangmi, okay? I grew up watching her on TV, Wang Sikong said. A shallow man like you wouldn’t understand. Wang Chen raised. An eyebrow, a playful smile tugging at the corners of his mouth, grew up watching her on TV? Are you sure you didn’t grow up watching her deep V outfits? By the way, you’ve been pursuing her. For so many years, and she hasn’t even followed you back on Weibo. Don’t you feel defeated? Wang Sikong’s voice rose a few notches, that’s called perseverance. What do you know? Plus, she just got divorced, it’s the perfect emotional window for me to make my move. I will definitely succeed. As long as you like her, Wang Chen said lightly. Wang Chen, are you really not interested in young me at all? Wang Sikong asked, puzzled. I thought your taste was the same as mine, but now it seems I’m better off. Your taste is quite specific, either internet celebrities or stars, Wang Chen scoffed. You’re just sour grapes because you can’t have them. The roar of a sports car engine came from Wang Sikong’s side, vibrating the phone receiver, I don’t believe. It, with my concern, I can’t warm her heart? Yang Mi has had a tough time these years, holding up the mess of the company alone, her husband is unreliable, and he’s involved with other female. Celebrities, Wang Sikong sighed. This time, with the rumors about Yang Mi, her husband didn’t even dare to make a sound, and now he wants a divorce, showing no responsibility. It breaks my. Heart. Wang Sitsun’s words were filled with sympathy for Yang Mi Wang Chen secretly mocked, in the world of simps, Wang Sikong was quite an explosive presence. Heartbroken? Wang Chen’s lips. Curled into an ambiguous smile, why don’t you feel sorry for yourself? Less than 3 hours after she announced her divorce, you posted 20 moments, busier than during the new year. That’s. Called genuine feelings. Look at those comments online that criticize her, saying she relied on men to rise to fame, cheating during marriage. He suddenly choked up, and after a long pause, he muttered, clearly, she was the one who was betrayed. So you’re planning to be her flower protector? Wang Chen smiled. It’s a noble intention, but she’s in a tough spot right now, her. Company is facing shareholder discontent because of this incident. I’ve heard that some shareholders are using this opportunity to try and swallow the shares in Yang Mi’s hands, Wang Sitsong, said helplessly. You don’t actually intend to throw money at this to win her smile, do you? Wang Cheng casually asked. Wang Sitsong immediately panicked, you can’t really think I’m a simp, can you? I admire Yang Mi, but I’m not that easily swept away. The shareholders of her company are dead set on taking her shares, and that’s not easy to resolve. But, this situation isn’t a good opportunity, is it? If you could help Yang Mi deal with these people and get their shares into her hands, that would be a blood profit. Why did you call me for this? Wang Chen burst. Into mocking laughter. No wonder Wang Sitsong was so eager, it seemed someone had sent him to seek help from Wang Chen. Wang Sitsong wasn’t angry, alright, since you’ve guessed it, I’ll be. Straightforward. Yang Mi is struggling a bit, the divorce has had a serious impact on her. The company had just stabilized for a few days, and now this has happened. The entertainment industry. is particularly sensitive to these matters, and now she’s being backstabbed by her ex-husband while being bullied by shareholders in the company. She can’t bear to hand over her shares to them, leaving joshing in disgrace isn’t her style, Wang Seed Song explained. So Yang Ni came to me, hoping I could help her. But you know, I’m broke, I’m practically destitute. If it were a few million, that would be fine, but I really don’t have a few billion. I just want to find that guy Qin Fen, he’s really something else, saying he doesn’t like older women and only likes those little internet celebrities. So I called you, if you’re interested, help Yang Mi out. Putting aside my feelings for Yang Mi, her joshing media company is still a worthy investment. Taking this opportunity to acquire those shareholders’ shares would be a very profitable investment, Wang Sitsong continued. Of course, if Yang Mi changes her view of me because I helped her, who knows, I might even get a chance to be close to her. Wang Chin sighed, feeling a bit helpless, you’re really hopeless, going this far for a woman. If it were someone else, it would be one thing. Wang Sitsong, the playboy, actually had moments of being lovestruck. Wang Chen, you don’t understand, this is love, Wang Si Tsong chuckled. Even if Yang Mi has been divorced, I don’t mind. What a hopeless simp. Wang Chen scolded. This is deep affection, okay? How can you call it simping? Being good to a woman without a response is simping, alright? But Mi Mi has replied to my messages, Wang Si Tsong quickly explained. Wang Chen almost laughed, just replying to a few messages doesn’t mean it’s not simping. What a ridiculous statement. Wang Chen, rare to be talking. About such nonsense with him, directly spoke into the phone, alright, I’ll give you a favor, set a time. As expected of my good brother, Wang Sitsong said excitedly, I’ll contact Yang Mi. Shortly, I’m sure she’s anxious too. I’m already on the highway back to Modu, I might even make it in time for dinner. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, right now, the video of Yang. Mi drunk is going viral online, her company’s statements and police reports have been useless. I’ve watched it frame by frame, 9 times in total, just to find evidence to help her refute. The rumors. I can guarantee that the woman in the video is not Yang Mi. Even if it’s not Yang Mi, you really didn’t need to watch it that many times. Wang Chen was also at a loss. Not. Good. Yang Mi just sent me a message saying the shareholders are forcing her to hold an emergency board meeting now and she has to take responsibility for the negative public opinion. No way. Wang Chen frowned and said, holding a board meeting now will definitely lead to a forced transfer of shares. You need to contact her immediately and let her postpone the meeting on the grounds. A feeling unwell just by some time. Understood. After Wang Sitsong finished speaking, he hung up the phone. After hanging up, Wang Chen’s expression turned contemplative. Joshing Media is quite good, entering the market at this time is a guaranteed profit. With Yang Mi and the company’s Dili Reba, as long as they don’t have any issues, it will be a cash cow. Yang Ni doesn’t hold too many shares, why not just push the other shareholders out? He wants to completely take over Joshing Media. After thinking it over, Wang Chen took out his phone and opened the news app, where all the headlines were about Yang Ni’s divorce. The buzz was explosive. Extramarital affair during marriage. Leaving with nothing. These were the hot keywords that major media outlets were. Scrambling to report. The comments section was a mess filled with orchestrated comments from paid commenters and insults from uninformed netizens. Yang Mi and the people around her had all their. Information dug up. They were being dragged into various narratives. Yang Mi’s online traffic was unimaginable. She was practically the hottest female star of 2018. Wang Chen casually scrolled. through and then exited the news. He had no interest in these sensationalized stories. Then he opened his faixing moments. Besides family, his male friends were just Wang Sitsong and a few others. The rest were all his women. Or the women around him. You could say it was basically all females. Just as he clicked into moments he saw Wang Sitsong had posted something. Rushing to the magic. City. He uploaded a photo of himself driving a Ferrari, speeding down the highway. Really no saving it. Wang Chin shook his head and silently liked the post. Suddenly, Yu Meng sent him a message. Brother Wang Chen, are you free now? Wang Chen opened it to see that Yu Meng had sent a photo of herself and Jean Coeur at Disneyland. In the picture, Yu Meng and Jean Coeur were smiling, brightly in front of the Disneyland castle holding cartoon-shaped ice creams. In the photo, Yu Meng was dressed in a classic snow white cosplay, her fluffy red and blue dress making her look adorable. The bright red velvet top outlined her delicate collarbone and the blue satin skirt was adorned with white pearls, gently swaying with her movements. She wore her signature red velvet. bow headband, her black hair cascading down her shoulders, with a light yellow ribbon tied around her neck and white Mary Jane shoes paired with nude stockings. She looked pure and sweet, like a girl stepping out of a fairy tale. Beside her, Jean Coeur exuded a completely different charm. Her queen cosplay was incredibly seductive. The black leather deep-thead bodycon dress hugged. Her curves, with a slit that almost reached her thigh, showcasing her long, straight legs. She wore black velvet gloves, and a crown embedded with black gems tilted on her head, her makeup. exquisite and glamorous, with slightly upturned red lips and a captivating gaze. Every gesture radiated the alluring charm of a mature woman. The two stood in front of the Disneyland castle, one, pure and one seductive, forming a stark contrast, practically the dream goddesses of countless men. Wang Chen felt a surge of heat in his chest. It had been a long time since he last saw them. After asking them to come to the central building for a live stream, although he didn’t intend to take them both as his women, at least there would be some intimate contact. Moreover, the Stark. contrast between the two women left a deep impression on wang chen the seemingly innocent yu meng had an extremely contrasting side at home she was quite different from her usual self jean core with her fiery appearance had a great figure but acted very shy i’m free what’s up wang chen replied yu meng’s response came back instantly accompanied by a series of animated emojis we’re live streaming at disneyland do you want to join us brother wang chen disney has a fireworks show tonight all right i’ll be there soon yu meng was extremely happy to see wang Chen’s reply, then let’s find a place to eat first, it’s almost noon. She then sent a cute expression pack filled with anticipation. Send me the address, Wang Chen smiled. Soon, Yu Meng sent. Over an address. Brother Wang Chen, we’re waiting for you. If you’re hungry, you can start eating without me. He wasn’t that hungry at the moment, but if it was Yu Meng and Jin Kour, he could. Still managed to eat a little. After sending the message, Wang Chen put his phone aside, restarted the car, and drove towards Disney. Both Jin Kour and Yu Meng were goddess level in terms of. figure and appearance. Although they were still a bit behind top goddesses like Ren Ning Shuang, they made up for it in numbers, and they were streamers, which added a special bonus in Wang. Chen’s eyes. It was like an obvious halo. He was tired of home-cooked meals, so a little variety wouldn’t hurt. It was just unfortunate that his physical condition was too strong, home-cooked. Dishes could no longer satisfy him normally. Wang Chen’s car weaved through the traffic. A Rolls -Royce Cullinan, worth over 10 million, was quite rare in the Magic City, and other cars kept there. distance, fearing a scratch if they got too close. After more than 20 minutes, Wang Chen drove into Disney. He purchased a VIP ticket for 4,888 yuan. All the while, he walked in with a relaxed expression. Occasionally, tourists recognized him and took out their phones to take pictures, but he didn’t mind. Soon, Wang Chen arrived in front of a Western restaurant. As he stepped inside, the waitress was about to greet him when she saw it was Wang Chen, and her expression changed in surprise. She instantly recognized him as the internet sensation, the current national Wang Sitsong and Xinfen were both his friends, known for being tall, rich, and handsome. Hello, Mr. Wang, are you here alone? The waitress flashed a sweet smile, looking at Wang Chen. Enthusiastically. My friends are already waiting for me in the private room, Wang Chen replied kindly, then took out his phone to check the private room location Yu Meng had sent. He relayed. It to the waitress. Alright, Mr. Wang, I’ll take you there right away. The waitress felt a bit disappointed, but her expression remained unchanged as she gestured for Wang Chen to follow her. The restaurant was quite busy. Although it was the off-season, it was mostly full. The guests, upon seeing Wang Chen, gasped and took out their phones to take pictures, but they maintained basic decorum and didn’t crowd around him. Wang Chen didn’t feel put off, instead, he smiled at the cameras. That’s what happens when you become popular. You get surrounded wherever you go. Just like Wang Sitsong, who gets put online for the slightest thing. However, Wang Chen wasn’t worried about anyone posting negative news about him online. Any bad news that appeared would be taken down. Immediately. As long as it’s a person, it’s fine. If there were organized groups or people with ulterior motives, within an hour, someone would come to have a chat. After all, Wang Chen’s identity was there and having some special protection was quite normal. Wang Chen soon arrived at the private room. He pushed the door open and walked in. Yu Meng and Jin Kuo stood up and sweetly smiled at him. Brother Wang Chen, you’re here. Yes, brother Wang Chen, we missed you so much. No surprise, this line was from Yu Meng. Jin Kuo was a bit more reserved compared to. Horror. Didn’t I say if you were hungry, you could eat first? why wait for me jim kura moved aside a bit creating a space between them for wang chen to sit down wang chen smiled why are you still so reserved have you become distant after just a few days after all they had fought together on the same bed wang chen had no habit of putting on airs in front of them um um brother wang chen what do you want to eat you meng nodded and said sweetly just order whatever you like tonight i’m treating wang chen had previously sent a message saying not to wait for him and to start eating but after discussing it they still felt it was better to wait for wang chen to arrive before ordering wang chen took the menu and glanced at yu meng jean core smiled and said brother wang chen you have no idea yu meng is usually so stingy it’s only because you’re here that she’s willing to treat core what are you saying yu meng stomped her foot and reached out to hit jean core jean core giggled and said all right i won’t say anything more wang chen chuckled at their interaction the two girls were playfully teasing each other and Yu Meng suddenly had an idea, she tugged at Jin Khor’s clothes, exposing her own shoulder. Ah, you little devil, what are you doing? Just as Wang Chen lifted his teacup, he caught sight of. The two white patches, and the hot tea nearly spilled over his hand. Yu Meng tilted her head and winked at him, showing no concern about her exposure. Jin Khor, blushing, tried to pull her clothes. Back but was firmly held by Yu Meng, who told you to talk nonsense. Now we’re even. When they saw the meaningful look in Wang Chen’s eyes, both of their faces turned red. As best friends. They usually had a great relationship and often played around like this at home, discussing some risque topics. However, showing this side of themselves in front of Wang Chen made even Yu Meng, who had a thicker skin, blush a little. Jean Kur was even more so, her face as red as a ripe apple, silently adjusting her clothes. She stole a glance at Wang Chen and then shot an annoyed look at Yu Meng. This little vixen was so eager to present herself to Wang Chen. How annoying. Wang Chen’s lips curled slightly, and he said nothing. The scene before him was truly eye-catching. Especially with Yu Meng and Jean Kour dressed in cosplay outfits. Soon, they called the waiter in to order. Before long, the dishes began to arrive one after another. I’m so hungry, I’ve been streaming since morning and didn’t even have a sip of water, Yu Meng said, nearly drooling. Brother Wang Chen, I won’t hold back. Wang Chen nodded and started eating as well. Jean Kour was still recovering from her earlier embarrassment, but having streamed all morning, she was also starving. Not wanting to think too much, she began to eat in small bites. After a while, Wang Chen. raised his glass to toast with them, the crisp sound echoing in the private room. Yu Meng tilted her head back and drank the red wine, a drop of wine staining the corner of her lips. She tilted her head and playfully complained to Wang Chen, Brother Wang Chen, I’ve made a mess here. Wang Chen chuckled softly and directly kissed her lips. When Yu Meng first met Wang Chen, she acted completely differently. Now she dared to provoke him actively. Yu Meng’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, startled by Wang Chen’s sudden kiss, and she quickly closed her eyes, wrapping her arms around his neck in a passionate response. Jin Kour bit her lower lip, her gaze shifting back and forth between the two intertwined figures, her cheeks burning from her ears down to her neck. Now. It’s clean, right? Wang Chen teased as he released Yu Meng, his fingers brushing across her cheek. Yu Meng’s cheeks were flushed, yet she still raised an eyebrow at Jin Kour, smiling. Triumphantly. Little vixen. Jin Kour muttered under her breath, taking a big bite of her steak. What’s wrong, Kour, are you jealous? Wang Chen smiled. Jin Kour shook her head repeatedly, pretending to be indifferent. Yu Meng leaned in, wrapping her arm around Jin Kaur’s shoulder, the scent of red wine mixing with her sweet fragrance, good sister, don’t be angry, next time it’ll be your turn Jin Kaur, caught between the two, felt both shy and annoyed, I’m not talking to you guys. By the end of the meal, Yu Meng leaned her head on Wang Chen’s shoulder, her fingers unconsciously drawing circles on his chest, and after a moment of hesitation, Jin Kaur gently leaned in as well. Her head felt a bit dizzy, Wang Chen didn’t care about much and stuffed most of the food on the table into his mouth. He had no habit of letting women pay the bill. He called over the waiter, and the total came to 9,800 yuan. After leaving the restaurant, the women followed Wang Chen to his cullinan. Get in the car, Wang Chen said with a smile as he opened the door. Jean Kor and Yu Meng exchanged glances, didn’t refuse, but their cheeks turned even redder. They sat in the back seat, one after the other. On the street outside Disney, the imposing body of the cullinan was already eye-catching. When people saw Wang Chen getting in the car with two beautiful women, countless jaws dropped instantly. Oh my god, as expected of Wang Chen, the girls around him are always two at a time. Isn’t that the female streamer from Daween? A nearby uncle, who, was passing by with his wife and child, stretched his neck and almost bumped into the guardrail, muttering, today’s young people really know how to have fun. Even bolder young men took out. Their phones, pretending to make calls while actually taking sneaky photos, lowering their voices to livestream to their friends, bro, look. Wang Chen is driving a Rolls Royce Cullinan, and, he’s got two stunning beauties getting in the car. I think that’s Yu Meng and Jin Kaur from Doin. If I could have this treatment, I’d be willing to live 10 years less. His companion on. The other end of the line cheered him on, urging him to get closer for a better view. This exaggerated scene didn’t attract much attention from others, as most people were busy taking photos or videos, all excited. Originally, Yu Meng and Jin Kaur were already big internet celebrities, known by many across the country. Not to mention having Wang Chen, the National Young Master, with them. Wang Chen got into the car and glanced at the two shy girls before starting the engine. He sped away from Disney and soon returned to his residence, Sky Curtain Palace. Gene Core and Yu Meng followed Wang Chen into the elevator and went to the top floor. Although it wasn’t their first time here, they were still awed by the luxurious house before them. It was simply too extravagant. Given their income, buying a house in the Magic City was quite easy, but purchasing a top-tier mansion like Wang Chen’s was still a bit out of reach. They were streamers on Dewein, and there. Income had surpassed many people in the world, naturally wanting a good life. They looked down on ordinary houses but couldn’t afford the expensive ones. Jean Kour and Yu Meng had a great relationship, renting a place together in a good area of the magic city to meet their living needs, but it couldn’t compare to Sky Curtain Palace at all. Wang Chen sat on the sofa, calmly, watching the two women. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a bit subtle, and Jean Kour and Yu Meng exchanged glances. Um, I worked up quite a sweat today, so I think I’ll go take A. Shower first, Yu Meng said, turning her eyes and heading towards the bathroom. Sister Yu Meng, let’s go together. Jean Kur felt even more embarrassed being alone with Wang Chen and hurriedly, followed her. They knew what would happen next after coming to Wang Chen’s home, it wasn’t their first time with him. They just felt a bit shy. After a while, Jean Kur and Yu Meng finished their showers and came out without clothes, just draped in bathrobes. They personally served Wang Chen as he entered the bathroom again. After some playful banter, Wang Chen emerged feeling refreshed. while Jin Kuo and Yu Meng were still in the bathroom getting ready. Back in the bedroom, Wang Chin picked up his phone to check the time, it was already 5 in the evening. Wang Sitsong had sent several messages saying he had arrived. However, Wang Chin had been busy earlier and didn’t have time to respond. Wang Chin got up, washed his hair, changed clothes and went down to the garage, getting into his beloved car, Venom, and drove towards Wang Sitsong’s location. Not far from Lu Jiazui, Wang Chin spotted Wang Sitsong and his bodyguard from a distance. He parked the car and stepped out. Hey man, what are you doing? It’s one thing that you don’t reply to my messages, but why aren’t you picking up the phone? Wang Sikong pointed at Wang Chen’s nose, gritting. His teeth, I’ve already had several cups of coffee. If it weren’t for trusting my brother, I would have gone home long ago. It was clear that Wang Sikong had a place in the magic city. He, had come straight here after getting off the highway. Wang Chen’s expression remained unchanged, showing no sign of embarrassment. Brothers are meant to be taken advantage of. And at critical. moments who has time to care about him he could only blame his body for being too strong not something that could be resolved in a short time even though he had been using it quite frequently during this period but the existence of solidified attributes kept wang chen in peak condition there was no such thing as moderation damn wang sikh on could tell from his demeanor that he hadn’t held back after being with wang chen for so long he knew his temperament well it was clear he was playing cards with that woman again he clenched his back teeth and finally spat out A few words after a long pause. I’ll see what you do after 30. Even if it’s 80, I’m still awesome. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and put his arm around Wang Sitzong’s shoulder. Let’s go. Wang Chen glanced at Wang Sikong and walked towards the car. The street was bustling with pedestrians. In just this short time, quite a few people had noticed them. Wang Chen and Wang Sikong were already well-known figures. The son of the richest man, along with a mysterious rich second generation, the newly appointed national husband Wang Chen, it was hard not to attract. Attention. Not to mention there were two supercars worth over a hundred million parked nearby. It was even more eye-catching. Some people had already taken out their phones to take pictures, and the crowd around them was growing. Wang Chin tossed the car keys to the bodyguard and sat in the passenger seat of Wang Seatsong’s Bugatti Chiron. Young Master Wang, what’s this, the bodyguard? asked. You drive behind, I’ll ride in your boss’s car, Wang Chin said, fastening his seatbelt casually. Wow, are you even human? Wang Sikong was instantly dumbfounded. I waited for you. inside for ages and this is how you treat me you want me to be the driver are you still my brother stop talking nonsense wang chen said lightly i can only relax driving your car because i consider you a brother so hurry up and get in i’ve been driving on the highway for several hours i’m exhausted do you have any humanity left wang sikong reluctantly got into the car he said that but in reality he had only driven for a bit on the way the rest was driven by the bodyguard after sitting in the car for so long he was indeed quite tired who told you to via sycophant? Wang Chen took out his phone and scrolled through Douyin without looking up. Hearing this, Wang Sikong opened his mouth to refute Wang Chen. But after a long time, he couldn’t. Come up with a counter-argument feeling instantly dejected as he fastened his seatbelt, started the car, and drove off into the distance. Inside the Bugatti. Just now, Yang Mi called me and said. Those shareholders are causing trouble, and she probably can’t stall for too long, Wang Sikong said. Wang Chen nodded, his expression thoughtful. It seemed that Yang Mi’s current situation was indeed not good. If an ordinary man encountered such a situation, he would be at a loss for how to handle it, let alone a woman like her. Yang Mi usually appeared carefree, able to chat with anyone, and was quite familiar with people. But that didn’t mean she was a naive sweetheart. If she were really that naive, she wouldn’t have been able to rise to the top in the entertainment industry or even become a boss. Now, Yang Mi’s love life was a mess and her career had also suffered a significant blow. In her past life, Yang Mi had overcome this hurdle, but in 2023, she ultimately withdrew from Jiaxing and started her own personal studio. How did Yangmi get through this crisis in her past life? One could only say that Wang Sikong, the sycophant, must have played a significant role. Wang Chin glanced at him and nodded to himself, everyone who couldn’t have her was in a stir. Yangmi’s star status and stunning appearance made Wang Sikong somewhat envious, which was only natural. Men are like that. What they can’t have is always the best. If Wang Sikong really liked Yangmi, he wouldn’t have so many internet celebrity girlfriends or have relationships. with so many women. Changing girlfriends is faster than changing cars. One can only say, if one is a dog for one person, then being a dog for a hundred women makes one a warrior. This time, Wang Sikong strongly urged Wang Chen to help Yang Mi. One reason was that he wanted Wang Chen to assist Yang Mi, he felt sorry for her current situation. The other reason was that acquiring shares in Jiaxing could make a profit, as business was the most important thing. As for Yang Mi, that was just a side benefit. Where should we meet her? Wang Chen glanced at the traffic and casually said. How about finding a private place? Wang Sikong asked. Wang Shin shook his head and said, all the media are watching Yang Mi, it’s not safe to go anywhere. Let’s just go to your house. That works. Wang Sikong said confidently, I’ll send a message to Mimi. She probably doesn’t know how many paparazzi are watching her right now, I don’t know how easy it will be for her to get away. If someone catches Yang Mi coming to see us, the internet will explode, going to my house is also a solution. Gubei number one. As the top luxury residence in the. Magic City, it boasts scarce urban core resources, extreme product power, and pure luxury attributes, firmly occupying the first tier of the luxury housing market in the Magic City, adjacent to a golf course, west of Hongshu Road east of the Natural River Channel at Outon Port and north of Hongsong East Road, it forms a layout surrounded by water on three sides and greenery on one side. There are apartments and villas here. Of course, Wang Sikong bought a villa, a 1853 square meter standalone villa, three floors above ground plus two underground, with a spacious living. room, private swimming pool, rooftop garden, all the amenities one could wish for. The price is extremely expensive. The only regret is that the night view is not as stunning as that of the Tianmu Palace. There is actually another villa here that belongs to Wang Chen. It was a gift from Wang Jianguo last time. Wang Sikong drove the car into the underground garage, parked, and then took the elevator up with Wang Chen. Although he rarely stayed here, the house was still spotless as the property management came to clean regularly. It ensured that coming home was always to a clean environment, ready for immediate occupancy. Wang Chen sat on the sofa, looking around. To be honest, there is indeed a difference between a villa and a large flat. He now lived in the Tianmu Palace every day, so he wasn’t as enamored with high-rise apartments anymore. Wang Chen, make yourself at home, I’m going to take a shower first, Wang Sikong said, heading upstairs without. Looking back, he planned to take a good shower and fix his hairstyle so he could make a good impression when Yang Mi arrived. He, Wang Sikong, was also a handsome guy, okay? Wang Sikong. walked into the master suite on the second floor, wearing Italian handmade leather slippers. The bathroom lights turned on automatically, illuminating the stone walls with a warm amber glow. He casually turned on the contemporary faucet and a curtain of water at a constant temperature of 42 degrees Celsius poured down from the ceiling and rain shower head, the scent of cedar essential oil, gradually spreading in the steam. Wang Sikong hummed a cheerful tune. After a quick wash, he stepped out of the bathroom and went downstairs. His originally good mood vanished the moment he saw. Wang Chen. Damn. No matter how he dressed up, he still couldn’t compare to Wang Chen. How did this guy grow up? This modeling is just too outrageous. Wang Chen was no ordinary handsome, he was. Practically reality’s version of a TikTok beauty filter at level 10. He was still young, taller than him, and had abs to boot. Wang Sitsong’s face darkened as he looked at his own flatty belly. And slightly soft waist. It seemed that in front of Wang Chen, the handsome guy persona couldn’t hold up anymore. Quite the flower, yet he ended up as the green leaf. Damn, I really suspect. You’ve got some tech going on, how can you look so amazing? Born this way, don’t doubt it. Wang Chen’s expression was calm. He then stood up and walked over to the nearby wine cabinet. The cabinet was made of top-grade black walnut filled with red wines that looked quite expensive. His gaze swept over La Fite and Latour, finally settling on a bottle of Romani Conti Grand Cru. This wine was not cheap and had a very limited production. Even having money might not guarantee a purchase. Wang Chen’s eyes lit up as he took it out and poured himself a glass. Wang’s sick on immediately. felt a pang of regret and hurriedly poured himself a glass as well. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Wang Sikong went to the nearby display screen and pressed the unlock button. Secretary Yang has arrived. Wang Chen nodded. He returned to the sofa with Wang Sikong. After a while, the sound of high heels clicking against the marble echoed from the entrance. Secretary Yang arrived. Gracefully, draped in a black silk shawl coat, her diamond-tier mold glimmering under the warm light. She first raised an eyebrow to assess Wang Sikong, but her gaze was suddenly drawn to Wang Chen. A smile curling at the corners of her lips, young master Wang, long time no see. I’m right here, you know, Wang Sikong said, somewhat annoyed. As soon as Secretary Yang entered, she shot him a glance and then kept her eyes on Wang Chen. Even if Wang Chen was a bit more handsome than him, it shouldn’t be to this extent. Principal. Upon hearing this, Secretary Yang greeted Wang. Sikong. A smile remained on her face, as if this incident hadn’t affected her at all. With a hint of a smile lingering at the corners of her mouth, she walked straight to Wang Chen’s side and, Without waiting for an invitation, sat down next to him, casually draping her shawl coat over the armrest of the sofa, revealing her long legs clad in sheer black stockings. She leaned back against. The sofa inside, I was exhausted trying to shake off those paparazzi. I can hardly stay at home, there’s someone monitoring me 24 hours a day. To come see you guys, I had. My assistant drive around for a while just to lose those people. Secretary Yang waved her hand helplessly, these media people are really bored, they want to stick a camera in my face and live stream. Me 24 hours a day. Isn’t that how the media works? Every move you make is a guarantee of their traffic, if they don’t chase you, who will? Wang Sikong shook his head, sitting. Across from her. Damn it. Secretary Yang huffed, I had kept the divorce matter under wraps but I don’t know which idiot leaked it. Speaking of this, Secretary Yang gritted her teeth in. Frustration, I was already annoyed enough and now these people want to blow it up, the company is having issues now. It seems you’re not worried at all about the divorce, Wang Chen observed. Noting how relaxed she looked discussing it, while her expression darkened at the mention of company troubles. Divorce is just divorce, what can he do if he wants to leave me? Secretary Yang said nonchalantly, a scumbag with no responsibility, what can I do about it? I can’t just die over this matter. I thought you would be very sad, Wang Sikong said, feeling bored? If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn’t have rushed back. Driving all that way back was not easy for me. Wang Chen glanced at him, saying nothing, just a loyal dog. I am sad, I just didn’t. Say I wasn’t, Secretary Yang said seriously, the company has finally gotten on the right track under my leadership and now these shareholders are causing trouble. Is it easy for a small star like me to run a company? They all come to bully me, boo hoo. Wang Sikong was stunned, how did she start crying? After a while, Secretary Yang continued, these old folks want to take this opportunity to snatch the company from me, I feel so pitiful. If I end up being kicked out of the company and left on the streets, young master Wang, would you take me in? Yang. Mi looked at Wang Chen with a pitiful expression and said, my request isn’t high, I just need Wang Xia to give me a meal. That day will never come, Wang Sikong quickly interjected, even if. That day comes, you can just come to my house, my door is always open to you. Yang Mi immediately rolled her eyes dramatically and disdainfully replied, who wants to live at your place? You, a single, bald, greasy middle-aged man. If I lived at your house, what would others think of me? I’d be ridiculed to death. The smile on Wang Sikong’s face instantly vanished, leaving him somewhat puzzled. Was it really necessary to insult him like that? Even if he wasn’t handsome, he shouldn’t be labeled as a bald, greasy middle-aged man. How much did she look down on him? As Yangmi spoke, she turned her body and moved closer to Wang Chan, her eyes filled with playful affection and dependence. Wang Xiao looks so fresh and clean. If the paparazzi find out, it would really prove my good taste, even a handsome man like Wang Xiao likes me. I can’t imagine how many girls across the country would be envious and jealous. If that day really comes and I live at your place, I hope I won’t be a bother, right? Are you sure? Wang Chen raised his glass and chuckled lightly, if you don’t mind, I have a villa here, you can pack up and move in later. As long as Wang Xiao is willing, I’m all for it, Yang Mi said, her face flushed with shyness, not rejecting Wang Chen’s words. She didn’t change the subject either. Wang Sikong sensed something. Was off, this wasn’t right. Wasn’t he the one who knew Yang Mi first? Now he was the one running around for her company, helping her solve problems. He thought Yang Mi would feel his sincerity. and recognize his goodness, then take the initiative to embrace him, leading to a loving relationship. But why was the plot developing so strangely now? Was Yangmi flirting with Wang Chen? He suddenly felt a bit superfluous. Wait, Yangmi, don’t do that, you might scare Wang Chen away, and then no one will invest in you, Wang Sikong quickly interjected, Wang Chen is still in school. A pure-hearted boy, he’s not suitable for you. Whatever you have, just come at me, I’ll take it for Wang Chen, Wang Sikong said with a generous expression, making Yangmi roll her eyes. It’s was true that Wang Chen was still in school. But to say he was a pure-hearted boy, she couldn’t agree. Not to mention the girlfriends Wang Chen had exposed online, just from their last meeting at the Whale Capital Company, in just a few exchanges, Wang Chen had held his ground, almost making her, a woman in her 30s, unable to bear it. If Wang Chen was pure-hearted, then there must be countless good men in Hua Gua. He looked like a sunny, handsome boy on the outside, but in reality, he was a big bad wolf preying on little lambs. If any girl believed Wang Sitzong’s words, she would only end up being devoured by Wang Chen. A man from Wang Chen’s background couldn’t be that simple. Even Wang Sikong, who seemed unreliable, would show a different side when faced with serious matters. Ordinary capital was already overwhelming for Yang Ni and companies were trying to snatch them away. Not to mention top-tier second-generation rich like Wang Chen and Wang Sikong. They represented the highest level of capital and power in Hua Gua, especially Wang Chen who was the epitome of power. Those in power were often cold-hearted and ungrateful. Yang Ni didn’t. naively think she could control the two just by her celebrity status and looks. If Wang Sikong and Wang Chun could be swayed by celebrity status and beauty, then, their parents would probably have to consider whether to train a little sidekick while they were still young. Thank you, Wang Xiao, for helping this little girl, I am truly grateful, Yang Mi said, looking at Wang Chun. With a serious expression, her eyes filled with gratitude. Upon hearing this, Wang Sikong’s expression immediately fell. Yang Mi really didn’t appreciate him at all. Why was he helping her so much? Wang Sikong stroked his chin, deep and thought, unable to understand why Yang Mi looked down on him. He wasn’t that bad after all. It’s a small matter, after all, investing in Jiaxing is also a good deal. Wang Chen smiled lightly and got straight to the point. Why don’t you tell me about the current situation of the company? Wang Sitsong came back to his senses, no longer joking around. Serious matters were at hand. Yang Mi had dealt with Wang Chen in the office of whale capital before and had some understanding of his character. He was not one to procrastinate. She was not surprised by his straightforwardness. Yangmi nodded and, after a moment of recollection, said, the current situation of the company is very unfavorable for me. After winning the bet with capital a few years ago, some people are still unwilling to give up and want to find a way to take control of the company again. Currently, these shareholders have united, taking advantage of the situation, trying to push me out of the company and attempting to acquire the shares I hold. Their combined shares have already surpassed mine, forming factions and I now have no influence over the company at all. Wang Chen listened to Yang Mi’s words, his expression gradually becoming serious, they shouldn’t be that bold who is supporting them from behind. According to my investigation, several private equity funds and the shadow of Shang-Chi film industry are behind this, Yang Mi explained with a nod. She had always been a clear-headed person, adept at seizing opportunities. Since her rise to fame, she decided to start her own studio in 2012 and become her own boss. However, there were too many studios in the entertainment industry, and many stars had their own studios after becoming top tier. Yang Mi’s studio was no different, apart from herself as a female star, it was just staff, with no profit points. She was unwilling to let her career stagnate like this. The personal studio model was not suitable for larger-scale development. In 2015, Yang Mi made a change. She believed she should abandon the studio and establish her own company so she could transition from a pure star to a boss. Only by becoming a boss could she reach the top of the food chain in the entertainment industry. Yang Mi no longer hesitated. And, together with her managers Zhang Jia and Zhao Ruarao, jointly invested $3 million to establish Jiaxing Tiansha Film and Culture Company, Limited. The company’s development relied on financial support. To ensure better development for the company, she signed a bet agreement with Shangshir Film Industry, securing a $300 million investment for company growth. The agreement stipulated that Jiaxing Media needed to achieve a net profit of $310 million after tax within three years from 2015 to 2017, or else you would have to repurchase shares from Shangshir Film Industry at an annualized. rate of 15%, effectively compensating Shangshu Film Industry 300 million plus 15% interest. Under such harsh conditions, if Yang Mi ultimately failed to fulfill the bet agreement, she would probably have to work for Shangshu Film Industry for the rest of her life. But it was precisely because of this contract that Yang Mi’s position in the company was affected. Many felt that Yang Mi had brought the company to the forefront of danger. As a capital entity, Shangshu Film Industry did not want Yang Mi to win the bet, investing 300 million was indeed focused on the entire. Jiaxing company and her personally. As a perennial star in the entertainment industry, having her meant guaranteed ratings. Therefore, during the betting period, there were both overt and covert attempts to suppress Yang Mi’s projects. Shangshir film industry even pulled Zhang Jia and Zhao Ruarao and other shareholders into their camp. Yang Mi’s voice in the company further diminished. Many matters could not pass in the board meeting. In the face of interests, Zhang Jia and Zhao Ruarao and other shareholders did not hesitate to side against Yang Mi, leading to a standoff. With her. As the founder of the company and a top star, Yang Mi became the most disadvantaged party, gradually losing control and voice over the company. Faced with the high-pressure bet Yang, Mi transformed into a relentless warrior, continuously taking on 13 projects over three years, including the hit dramas Eternal Love and Dear Translator. Ultimately, she broke through the mainstream with the success of Eternal Love, leading Jiaxing Media to achieve a net profit of 400 million Huashu coins in three years, exceeding their betting targets. Not only. Did this avoid the massive losses from repurchasing shares but it also significantly boosted the company’s valuation? It rose from 25 million to 5 billion, securing a new round of investment for the company. Now, just two years later, she found herself facing a divorce crisis. This greatly affected the company’s stock price. The shareholders used this as a reason to hold Yang Mi accountable, forcing her to leave the company to stabilize the stock price. Yang Mi knew all too well that this was just an excuse. The company was already thriving and her presence had become. somewhat dispensable. She was not the only top star under her name anymore. Yang Mi was acutely aware of her situation and could not simply relinquish her shares. However, there was no other way to calm these shareholders. In the current situation, they had to either eliminate the impact of this incident on the stock price or seek help from Wang Sikong or Wang Chen. How much are their shares worth? Wang Chen asked, stroking his chin. Yang Mi calculated in her mind and replied after a moment, approximately around 3 billion. This year’s company market value is about 4 billion. which has increased significantly compared to last year, she added. The money isn’t much. Wang Chen smiled, since they want to push you out of Jiaxing, don’t blame me for taking a bite. Of this sweet cake. I will secure their shares. Since he had chosen to act, he had to be generous. Compared to that mere 3 billion Huashia coins, the entire Jiaxing was what he was truly interested in. Yes, we at Jingtuan Capital need to become a real leader in the entertainment industry. On the surface, we still need a professional company, otherwise, relying on others for everything. is always inconvenient, Wang Sikong interjected. He was very satisfied with this investment. Of course, it wasn’t just because he was helping Yangmi, but because this investment would allow Jingtu and Capital to firmly establish itself in the entertainment industry. With their own foundation, they could handle production and promotion independently. Moreover, with the company’s stock price plummeting, entering the market now and waiting for the price to rebound would yield significant profits. Wang Sikong had developed an obsession with the entertainment industry. He longed to make a mark in it. That’s great! Yang Mi exclaimed joyfully. Her initial purpose in seeking Wang Chen was merely to hope for his support. With his backing, these people would surely think twice before acting out. She didn’t have high expectations regarding the investment. But now, it was clear that Wang Chen wanted to acquire all of these people’s shares, which was fantastic. News for Yang Mi. With Wang Chen’s Jingtuan capital having just established its reputation in the entertainment industry, his investment would remove any obstacles for Jiaxing’s future development. As for whether these people were willing to sell their shares, Yang Ni wasn’t worried at all. In front of Wang Chen, would they dare to hold back? The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. If Wang Chen acquired all these shares, he would become the undisputed largest shareholder of Juxing Media, instantly alleviating her worries. Moreover, with Wang Chen overseeing the company, Shang Tsingyi would no longer dare to make any moves. What was once a deadlock was completely resolved by Wang Chen. Furthermore, after their last collaboration, Yang Ni had noticed that Wang Chan generally did not interfere too much in the projects he invested in. He only demanded profits. As long as it brought him benefits, he wouldn’t meddle in the internal management of the company. Professional matters were left to professionals. Wang Chan wouldn’t give arbitrary orders. Thus, in joshing media, aside from Wang Chan as the largest shareholder, it was Yang Mi who held all the power. All rights rested with her, and no one in the company would dare to dictate to her. It was truly a one-person rule, she could finally let go and focus entirely. on developing her career. Old Wang, do you need to invest more on your side? Wang Chen asked after taking a sip of his drink. Wang Sitsong was bustling around, all to facilitate this matter. Investing in Jiaxing now could still yield a profit. Wang Sitsong didn’t hold much of a stake in the capital, which was why Wang Chen asked him. I’ll invest 50 million, but I don’t have to. Much on me either, Wang Sitsong said with a bitter smile, shaking his head. As for Wang Chen’s wealth, he can only feel envy and nothing else. Which rich second generation has access to hundreds? of billions of funds to use at will? It’s ridiculous. Wang Chen nodded slightly, all right, I’ll use the company’s account to personally acquire these shares. Okay, Wang Sitsong agreed. With a nod, Wang Chen acquiring these shares wouldn’t affect the company’s shareholding ratio, which was also why he emphasized that it was a personal acquisition. Seeing that they had come to an agreement, Yang Mi felt relieved. Since the matter is settled, let’s talk about the shareholders of Jiaxing Company, Wang Chen said lightly. How about finding a leader to step in? Wang. Sitsong stroked his chin and asked, these people won’t let go until they see the rabbit. Given their character, getting the shares from them might be harder than killing them. It probably won’t. Be easy to negotiate. Yangmi also looked at Wang Chen, wondering what solution he had. Not easy to negotiate? Wang Chen chuckled softly, looking at Yangmi, call the company’s shareholders, and have them come here immediately. He didn’t explain further. But Yangmi chose to trust Wang Chen, he wouldn’t joke about such matters. She then took out her phone and started calling the shareholders one by one. These people were initially her closest associates, but she never expected that former sisters and current partners would unite with capital against her for profit. This made Yang Mi extremely angry, but there was nothing she could do. Now that Wang Chen had given her hope for a turnaround, she grasped that hope without hesitation. Yang Mi wasn’t worried about whether these people would come. They would be eager to seize the share she held, so they would rush over. After a few calls, they all agreed to come to Gubei number one as quickly as possible. They all agreed to come right away, they should be here in about half an hour, Yang Ni said as she hung up the phone, turning to Wang Chen. Good, Wang Chen nodded in response. Yang Ni put down. Her phone, her mood instantly lightened. Regardless of whether Wang Chen could directly acquire these shares, at least these people wouldn’t make things difficult for her, given Wang Chen and Wang Sitsong’s presence. Then, a bright smile returned to her face as she joked and chatted with Wang Chen, completely ignoring Wang Sitsong beside them. Wang Sitsong leaned back on the leather. Sofa, his fingers tapping absentmindedly on the armrest, his gaze fixed on Wang Chen, filled with envy. He smacked his lips and teased, great, you’ve managed to show off again. Every time I see you acting all impressive, I wonder, how can there be such a big gap between us, both being from the Wang family? After saying that, he exaggeratedly sighed, deliberately putting on a heartbroken expression. He secretly vowed that in the future, if there were beautiful women around, he would definitely not bring Wang Chen along. Alright, stop the nonsense, Wang Chen shot him a. Glance, though the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but lift slightly. Yang Mi’s eyes sparkled and a sly smile crept onto her lips as she deliberately elongated her voice. Principal, you’re being blatantly jealous. But seriously, young master Wang’s impressive demeanor in strategizing does indeed make some people feel inferior. Just think about it, he handles everything so beautifully. How am I supposed to hold my own in front of beautiful women in the future? Wang Sitsong exclaimed, his eyes widening in exaggeration, looking at Yang Mi with a pitiful blink, Yang Mi. put down her wine glass, leaned forward, lightly tapping Wang Chen’s shoulder with her fingertips, her eyes curved with a smile, young master Wang, you should give Sitsong some face, otherwise, he might just blacklist you for the next gathering, he, suddenly, she leaned closer to Wang Chen’s ear, lowering her voice, I actually think you look quite charming like this, much better, than some who only know how to talk big, after saying that, she didn’t forget to throw a provocative glance at Wang Sikong Wang Sitsong immediately jumped up in a panic, young me, you can’t, just step on me like that, time quickly passed. Soon, three women arrived outside Wang Sitsun’s villa. All three were female, in their 40s or 50s. They were seriously overweight but wore revealing, sexy clothes that made one feel disgusted just looking at them. They exchanged glances, unable to hide their delight. Yang Mi was so eager to call us over, does she want to transfer her shares? It would have been better if she had done this earlier, why drag it out until now? Zheng Jia, with her short hair and fiery red lips curled into a smirk, said. The two women, beside her laughed along, their eyes filled with pride. I checked, this is Wang Sitsong’s property. Did Zhang Mi ask Wang Sitsong to come forward? Chen Ling pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses. Her gaze behind the lens is calculating. Hmm, so what if it’s Wang Sitsong? Zhang Jia pulled out a cigarette from her exquisite handbag, skillfully lit it, and exhaled a puff of smoke. His father doesn’t care about him, what can he do to us? Yang Mi is like an ant on a hot pan right now, she can only let us manipulate her. Exactly, this time we must let her know that opposing us leads to a bad end. Zhao Rua Rao brushed her curled hair, her fingers painted with bright red nail polish gently swaying, once we secure her shares, the company will be ours to control. Wang. Seet Sun’s background is not to be underestimated, but does he really think he can suppress us just by himself? What a joke. Chen Ling sneered and spoke. After all, he’s just a young boy, in. The prime of his youth, facing a big star like Yang Mi who comes knocking, it’s normal for him to not refuse. It shouldn’t be that simple. I’ve known Yang Mi for many years, I understand her. Character. she wouldn’t do something to ruin herself. Zhang Jia frowned at her words. Although they were now like fire and water, having not spoken properly for a long time, they used to have a very good relationship, one that could be described as having no secrets. Zhang Jia still knew what kind of person Yang Mi was. Yang Mi is currently facing setbacks in both love and career, who knows what she might do? Chen Ling continued, besides, she’s already divorced, to keep her shares, a small price to pay isn’t a big deal. I just didn’t expect Yang Mi could go this far. even willing to lower herself to Wang Sikong. Chen Ling said, shaking her head in disdain. But if that’s the case, we might have some trouble. Zhao Ruarao’s face turned serious, not as optimistic as the others. They were well aware of Wang Sitsung’s background, if his father got involved, they would have no way to counter it. Securing Yang Ni’s shares would be impossible. Zhang just sighed helplessly, now it all depends on Wang Sitsung’s attitude, no point in talking too much, let’s go in and see. Chen Ling smiled. That’s all we can do. Zhao Ruarao nodded. Wang Sitsung’s. appearance had directly disrupted their plans. During this time, key positions in the company had been filled with their own people, and Yang Mi had become somewhat dispensable within the company. Her voice had diminished to the lowest point. But now it seemed, things were not that simple. Regardless, they wouldn’t give up just because of Wang Sitsung’s interference. The three exchanged determined glances once more. Alright, let’s go in and see what tricks they have up their sleeves. Chen Ling said.At this point, there was no room for handshakes or reconciliation, it was a matter of life and death for both sides. Only when one party was completely defeated could it come to an end. After pressing the doorbell, the three waited for a moment. Soon, the villa’s main door opened. The three looked at Yangmi, who had come out, and instantly put on hypocritical smiles. Mimi, what are you doing here? The board meeting that was supposed to be held today has been postponed. Let’s talk inside first, Yangmi said, her face also adorned with a smile. Those unaware would think the relationships among them were quite good. The three entered the house and arrived in the living room. Their gazes swept over Wang Si -kong. The moment they saw Wang Chen, their expressions, froze. The Chanel handbag in Zhang Jia’s hand fell to the ground with a thud, lipstick and powder scattering everywhere. She staggered back a step, incredulously saying, Wang, Wang Chen? Chen Ling’s hand, which was adjusting her glasses, trembled violently, her pupil shrinking to pinpoints behind the lenses, while Zhao Ruo’s face turned pale, her legs weak, nearly unable to stand. You all have quite the discerning. Eyes, Wang Chen raised his glass, the aroma of wine wafting through the air. I heard you want the shares in Yang Mi’s hands? How does President Wang have the time? Chen Ling forced to smile, her voice trembling, catching a glimpse of Wang Sitsong raising an eyebrow at her with his legs crossed, nearly grinding her back teeth to dust. They guessed that Yang Mi had invited Wang Sitsong to mediate, but they never expected she would also bring in Wang Chen, this harbinger of doom. They still vividly remembered the consequences of Chen Yongkai provoking Wang Chen. This man’s background was directly connected to the heavens. Who would dare to provoke him? Don’t just stand there, sit down, Yang Mi elegantly gestured to the others, smiling. She struggled to suppress the corners of her mouth that wanted to rise, nearly bursting into. Laughter. These few had their day today. Where was their previous arrogance? Wang Chin glanced at them and said lightly, What’s wrong? Don’t want to see me? No, no, I just wanted to get to know President Wang. Zhang Ji’s throat tightened and as she bent down to pick up her handbag her nails dug deep into her palm. As for acquiring Yang Mi’s shares, President Wang has misunderstood. We have been partners with Yang. Mi for many years, the company’s development cannot be separated from her. How could we want to acquire her shares? Since the company’s development cannot be separated from Yang Mi, then you should be of. No use to the company, right? Wang Chen looked at the three, his words laden with meaning. This, Zhang Jia and the others exchanged glances, somewhat at a loss. Wang Sitsong scoffed, exaggeratedly shaking his. Head in loudly exclaimed, I say, guys, don’t pretend to be confused when you know what’s going on. The reason we called you here today is precisely for the shares. You three, obediently sell your shares to us, and we can coexist peacefully. We can still have fun together in the entertainment industry. But if you don’t cooperate, don’t blame me, Wang Sitsong, for being ruthless. Young Master Wang, your words come too suddenly. The company is currently on a rapid growth trajectory, and the shares we hold are real money invested. How can we just sell them? Zhang Jia’s face alternated between white and red, forcing herself to remain calm while squeezing out a smile. Wang Sitsong’s words were quite straightforward. they actually wanted to acquire the shares in their hands. This was completely different from the purpose for which they had come, weren’t they here to acquire Yang Mi’s shares? Wang Chen and Wang Sitsong were clearly determined to stand up for Yang Mi faced with their pressure, Yang Mi did not simply compromise. Finding Wang Sitsong was one thing, but to also bring in Wang Chen, this made things a bit tricky for them, after all, this was Wang Chen, he was now standing up for Yang Mi. Today’s matter had already taken shape, there was no room for struggle. Otherwise, they would have no place in the entire entertainment industry. If Wang Chen was willing to acquire their shares at the original price, that would be one thing, but if it was below the original price, they would be helpless. However, they believed that Wang Chen would not do such a thing. The investments made by Jing Tu and Capital during this time were filled with grandeur and morality, crushing everything in their path. Wang Chen was not an unreasonable person, he did not lack for money. Forcing others to relinquish their shares was one thing, but pressing for a lower price was another. It would have a significant impact on his reputation. At most, he would just want to show a bit of masculinity in front of Yang Mi, to vent for her. As long as the price wasn’t too outrageous, agreeing would be. Fine. After all, there were plenty of profitable projects. But if this matter offended Wang Chen, it wouldn’t be worth it. Mr. Wang, we are like sisters with Yang Mi, holding shares for so many years, this. This, Chen Ling glanced at Wang Chen, speaking cautiously. Stop with the nonsense, get to the point, Wang Chen leaned back, lying on the sofa, and said lightly, I want all the shares in your hands, name your. Price. Chen Ling looked at Zhang Jia and Zhao Ruoru, unsure of what to do. Zhao Ruoru was sweating profusely, forcing herself to say, Mr. Wang, is there some misunderstanding between us? We have no intention of selling our shares. Yes, yes, Mr. Wang, you must have misunderstood, we have no such intention, Zhang Jia wiped the sweat from her face and forced a smile, saying, we are like sisters with Yangmi, and over. The years, we have supported each other to establish joshing media, which has not been easy. We have faced so many difficulties over the years, but we have pulled through. The company is like our own flesh and blood. You want us to transfer our shares just like that? How can we bear to do it, like sisters, supporting each other? Yang Mi suddenly stood up, stepping closer to the three in her 10-centimeter heels. When you were forming cliques in the company against me, why didn’t you say you were sisters? Forcing me to hand over my shares, is that what you call mutual support? Excluding me from the decision-making level. In the board meeting and spreading rumors about my divorce in the media, that was you, right? Why didn’t you remember this friendship back then? It’s all a misunderstanding, Zheng Jia’s lips moved, wanting. To argue, it must be that there are people with ulterior motives trying to frame us. Ha ha, don’t think I don’t know. Zheng Jia, you’ve been in frequent contact with Shangshir film recently, trying to figure out how to get me out, right? And you too, don’t act innocent here. Yangmi’s eyes were filled with murderous intent as she looked at her former three good sisters, showing no mercy. She had once trusted these sisters completely. Since they partnered to start the company, she had let them handle many matters freely. They held immense power in the company. But they were still not satisfied, now they couldn’t even tolerate her and wanted to drive her out of joshing media, which she had founded herself. It was truly despicable. I have no interest in your excuses, Wang Chan said coldly, whatever sisterly bond you have with. Yang Mi, you can discuss that privately. But today, you must sell me the shares in your hands, or there will be no place for you in the entertainment industry. Wang Chan’s eyes suddenly turned to the three. Or do you have a problem with me? Don’t want to sell your shares to me? No, no, we absolutely don’t mean that. Mr. Wang, it’s our fortune that you value the shares in our hands, Zhao Rueru and the others. Immediately panicked, speaking incoherently, I, we, the three were so nervous that they couldn’t get a word out. Wang Chen’s gaze was simply too lethal. The three were flustered, were they really going to say? In front of Wang Chen that they were only trying to force Yang Mi to sell her shares and had no intention of selling their own, isn’t this seeking death? Mr. Wang, please let us explain. Chen Ling suppressed her. Inner Panic, her mind racing, our joshing media is just a small company, really not worth your attention. If you’re interested in investing in a company in the entertainment industry, how about, Huawei Guang Media? It’s the leader in the field, isn’t that pretty good? Or if you, heh, you’re even trying to teach me. Wang Chen shook his head and said, you dared to scheme against Secretary Yang, you should have. Thought about today. Huawei Guang Media? Do you think I, Wang Chen, am a three-year-old child, letting you point me where to hit? I’ll say it one last time, I want that share today. This. Zheng Jia and the others. Showed difficulty, knowing that if they didn’t give Wang Chen a satisfactory answer today, this matter would probably not end well. Chen Ling tentatively said, Mr. Wang, we really have no intention of selling. Our shares. We’ve worked at Joshing Media for so many years, we have feelings for the company, and you want to take our shares just like that, isn’t that asking for our lives? We’ve poured our life’s work. Into the company, it’s really hard to part with. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen said nothing, just looked at them with an indifferent expression. Chen Ling, Zheng Jia, and Zhao Ruoyao felt their heart sleep to their throats, sweat soaking their backs. Because, the pressure from Wang Chen was simply too strong. Even without saying anything, the feeling he gave them was like facing a big leader, and a particularly big one. At that, the atmosphere in the living room fell silent for a moment. Only the three of them could be heard breathing rapidly. Wang Sikong was stifling a laugh, looking expressionless, but his lips were almost unable to hold back a smile. The scene before him was just too funny. Three middle-aged women, in front of the excessively young Wang Chen, look like quails. Trembling. After a moment, Wang Chen slowly spoke. Alright, I’m not someone who bullies others with power. Since you don’t want to sell your shares, I won’t make it difficult for you. Really, Mr. Wang, thank you so much. Zhang Jia let out a long breath, gratefully. Said. Chen Ling and Zhao Roya looked at Wang Chen with gratitude, not expecting him to be so easy to talk to. Secretary Yang felt a bit disappointed upon hearing this, but her expression remained unchanged. Whether Wang Chen wanted to buy their shares depended on his mood, although Secretary Yang wanted him to be her boss, this outcome was still acceptable. However, I remember everything you said. If I find out. Later that you sold your shares, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Wang Chen said lightly, if you have feelings for joshing media, just stay in the company. If you have any other thoughts, don’t blame me. As soon as Wang Chen’s words fell, Zheng Jia, Chen Ling, and Zhao Royo, who had just relaxed, became tense again. Why did they come to this point with Secretary Yang, if not for money? But now Wang Chen’s words were clearly warning them not to sell their shares. This was more painful than killing them. What was the point of all their efforts? No matter how valuable their shares were, if they couldn’t cash them out, what use were they? No matter how high the company’s market value, if it couldn’t be realized, their shares were just a number without any real value. Their gazes towards Wang Chen instantly changed. Wang Chen was determined to take their shares with no intention of giving up. Offending Wang Chen was something they were unwilling to do. These rich second-generation ears valued their face the most. If they didn’t give Wang Chen face, he wouldn’t even need to take action against them personally, just a little rumor in the entertainment industry would make it hard for them to survive. The three had no doubt about Wang Chen’s capability, Hui Huang Media serves as a cautionary tale. Big shots like Chen Yongkai and Zhang Ming, who once dominated the entertainment industry, were taken down simply for offending Wang Chen, and now they can’t even show their faces in public. They suddenly realized that in front of Wang Chen, they had no leverage to resist. Their only option was to sell their shares. A little profit is better than none. Zheng Jia felt. Her throat tightened, swallowed hard, and was the first to break the dead silence since Mr. Wang values joshing media so much, we dare not hide anything. However, the share transfer must have a reasonable price. Her voice trembled, but she still forced a hint of a flattering smile on her face. Wang Chen’s long fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest, a casual tempo that made the hearts of the three women tighten. He suddenly. Chuckled lightly, as long as you cooperate, the price you deserve won’t be a penny less. Mr. Wang is so generous. Zheng Jia quickly echoed, her face filled with a flattering smile. Since Wang Chen said he would offer a satisfactory price, there was no need to worry about him lowering it. Selling at a premium was no longer their expectation. Being able to sell at the original price was already a sign of Wang Chen’s good nature. If it were another rich second generation, they might not even have to pay and they would have to obediently hand over their shares. Such things had happened in the industry before. How many rich second generations? relied on their powerful backgrounds, demanding this and that. Any company they set their sights on ultimately ended up in their hands. It was a blessing if the founders could come out and scathed, an original price. Acquisition was a luxury. Before long, the villa’s living room was packed with people. Employees from Jingtuon Capital and Jiashing Media had all gathered here. Manager Chen from Jingtuon Capital brought the company’s legal team and relevant personnel to sign the share transfer contract with Jiashing Media. After a professional evaluation by the company, combined with Jiaxing Media’s current stock price, the shares held by Zhang Jia, and the other two were valued at a total of 2.5 billion. Wang Chen and Wang Sikong transferred 2 .45 billion and 50 million to the company’s account, acquiring 80% of their shares. The payment was made immediately. With this, Wang Chen became the largest shareholder of Jiaxing Media, leaving only Yang Mi as a shareholder and Wang Sikong as a minor shareholder. Wang Chen had truly become the boss of Jiaxing Media, and Yang Mi would now be working for her. Zhang Jia and the other two signed the contract readily, though somewhat reluctantly. However, Wang Chen did not pressure them to lower the price. Although it didn’t meet their initial expectations, it was still quite good, it was rare for such a wealthy young master like Wang Chen to be willing to spend a large sum to buy their shares. Moreover, while the company’s market value was substantial, cashing out was not so easy. Assets would also depreciate. Therefore, a valuation reduction of 500 million was still within a reasonable range. For any follow-up matters, please coordinate with Manager Chen. Selling your. Shares to me is your wise choice, Wang Chen smiled, his face full of warmth. The previous coldness had vanished as if he had transformed into a different person. It’s our honor that Mr. Wang values these shares. We’ll. Trouble manager Chen for the rest, Zhang Jia said, her face beaming with smiles. With the shares already bought by Wang Chen, their only point of contention had disappeared and they were eager to curry favor with. Him. How could they possibly show a bad attitude towards Wang Chen? As long as they could leave a good impression on him, there might be opportunities for cooperation in the future. Mr. Wang’s ambition is unmatched. In the entire business circle, Zhao Rua’s eyes sparkled. Without any worries, she found Wang Chen even more handsome. Knowing that Mr. Wang is so generous, we sisters should have listened to you sooner, hee hee. Chen Ling suddenly said playfully. Wang Chen instantly gasped, a chill running down his spine looking at the three plump middle-aged women in front of him, he almost vomited up his overnight meal. Ding. The system detected that the host spent $2.45 billion, doubling the cashback to $4.9 billion. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 245,000 system points. After sending off the three women, Wang Chen slumped onto the genuine leather sofa, rubbing his temples, these women are really driving me to my grave. He picked up the red wine in front of him and downed it in one. Go! Wine Seatsong had a playful smile at the corner of his mouth, nearly laughing himself to pieces, oh, President Wang, are you so smitten that you can’t handle it? They call you President Wang so sweetly, just short of calling you brother Wang Chen, and you’re the one being picky? Wang Chen. Shot him a glare and grabbed a cushion from the sofa to throw at him. You try being fawned over by three heavily made up women. I had goosebumps all. Over, and my neck is still tingling. Wang Sitsong nimbly dodged the cushion, bending over with exaggerated laughter. Haha, Wang Chen, you’ve. Finally met your match. If I had known, I should have recorded this moment, so those in the entertainment industry who say you’re a living yama can. See how scared you were by a few beauties. He deliberately elongated his tone, mimicking Chen Ling’s playful tone, President Wang our sisters, are all sincere, you know Wang Chen’s face turned as dark as a pot bottom, choosing not to respond to him. Yang Mi’s lips curled into a smile, completely relaxing, the turmoil at joshing media had finally come to an end. Yet, she still found it hard to believe that things had been resolved so, simply, the problem that seemed unsolvable in her eyes was effortlessly handled by Wang Chen, from the arrival of Zhang Jia and her group to signing, the contract and leaving, all within two hours. The three people she once despised had completely vanished from Jiaxing Media, with no further ties. The previous collusion to ostracize her would no longer occur. Thinking of this, Yang Mi wanted to rush back to the company and give those fence-sitters. A good scolding, those sycophants were truly detestable, daring to roll their eyes at her. It made Yang Mi’s teeth itch. With Wang Chen becoming the big boss of Jiaxing, he was now her boss. With Wang Chen at the helm, even the once-mighty Hueguang Media would bow its noble head before her. From now on, she could walk sideways in the entertainment industry. The world is unpredictable. Initially, the company’s stock plummeted due to her divorce, leading to a series of subsequent crises that left Yang Mi helpless. Zhang Jia and her group were determined to force Yang Mi out of joshing. Media. With a mindset of giving it a try, she sought out Wang Sitzong and Wang Chen, hoping to gain their assistance, especially Wang Chen’s financial strength and the power behind him were not something a mere rich second generation could compare to. However, she only had a fleeting acquaintance with Wang Chen. Approaching him rashly might not guarantee his help. So, Yang Mi initially only contacted Wang Sitzong, the sycophant, and ultimately, succeeded in getting Wang Chen’s assistance. The outcome was far beyond Yang Mi’s expectations. Compared to her divorce, Wang Chen becoming the largest shareholder of joshing media was the most important matter. Yang Mi even wanted to thank her ex-husband for wanting a divorce, otherwise, such good fortune wouldn’t have happened. Especially when compared to Wang Chen, her ex-husband was truly lacking. There was no comparison at all. But in. Terms of appearance, height, and looks, Wang Chen surpassed him. The cause of all this was the handsome man sitting on the sofa in front of her. Looking at Wang Chen, Yang Mi truly realized what he represented. The Wang family in Hua Gua was so powerful that it was unimaginable. No one dared to provoke them. She somewhat understood why the old man of the Wang family would step in to help Wang Chen resolve the issues with Hui Guang Media. The divine has its authority, it’s not something small fry can provoke, moreover, gods cannot bleed. Mimi, this matter has been perfectly resolved. From now on, you won’t have these worries anymore, and it’s all thanks to me. Shouldn’t you express your gratitude? Wang Sikong raised his chin. Slightly, looking at Yang Mi with a smug expression. You? Yang Mi rolled her eyes and said mercilessly, did you solve it? You’re just here talking. About it. If I should thank anyone, it should be our young master Wang. Without me, could Wang Chin help you? I may not have made a contribution. But I’ve put in the effort. You can’t just follow that cliche from TV dramas about being a servant in the next life. Just offer yourself now, Wang. Sikong said. But in dramas, aren’t the ugly ones always destined to be servants in the next life? Only the handsome ones get to offer themselves. Yang Mi replied. Do you understand? Ugly rejection. Yang Mi waved her hands repeatedly, looking disgusted. How about I go tell Zhang Jia and the others? You old dried meat, maybe they’ll like that type. They’re all my sisters, I believe they won’t reject me, she said. She had known Wang. Sikong for quite a while, and he wasn’t pretentious. He wouldn’t take a joke to heart, so Yang Mi didn’t care whether her words would upset him. Question mark. Wang sick on thought of their faces, and his expression instantly turned as if he had eaten a fly. He pointed at Yang Mi, his finger trembling, unable to speak for a long time. Seriously, I really appreciate your help. Without you, I wouldn’t know what to do. How about this, I’ll treat you to dinner later, but you mustn’t refuse, Yang Mi suddenly said earnestly. I don’t know if I have the honor to express my gratitude. I’m not going. I have an appointment with other girls later, Wang Sikong waved his hand, refusing. TCH, you said you liked me, and now you have an appointment. With other girls, Yang Ni said helplessly, but she understood. Wang Sikong was quite a character. How many girls in the whole of Hua Gua wanted to date him but couldn’t? It was normal for him to have a date with a beauty. Wang Chen looked at Wang Sikong with some confusion. Something felt off. This investment was facilitated by Wang Sikong to win Yang Ni’s favor. To win the beauty’s heart. Yet now, when Yang Mi actively invited him to dinner, Wang Sikong actually refused, which puzzled Wang Chen. What was going on with this guy? Alright, then we’ll leave first, Yang Mi said. Glancing at the two of them, and she was the first to walk out of the villa. Wang Chen, seeing this, did not follow. Instead, he looked at Wang Sikong with confusion and said, why aren’t you going? This really surprises me. Forget it, I won’t join this excitement. Yang Mi has never been interested in me. Thinking about it, I might as well give up. I have time to drink with other girls instead, Wang Sikong shrugged nonchalantly. At least, I can still eat meat. He could feel that Yang Mi had no feelings for him, but it was completely different for Wang Chen. Although Wang Sikong was affectionate, he had slept with more women than an ordinary person would eat in a lifetime. He was clear about Yang Mi’s thoughts. Since they met, Yang Mi had never given Wang Sikong a chance, always treating him like a buddy. She had a great sense of boundaries. Wang Sikong couldn’t help but sigh. Right now, we seem like buddies. Do you think I still have a chance? If Yang Mi really gave me a chance, I probably wouldn’t even know what to do. Wang Sikong felt no regret about not being able to have something with Yang Mi. Although he was affectionate towards her, it was just a saying. He desired the freedom of the flower garden. Ever since he was hurt by his first love when he was young, Wang Sikong vowed never to truly fall in love with a woman again. His feelings for Yang Mi were merely a special psychological phenomenon. Being a big star comes with a different psychological feeling. It’s best to have it, but if not, it doesn’t matter. There are plenty of girls around him. How many girls want to add him on Feixin? But can’t. Wang Chen glanced at him in surprise. Wang Sikong was so clear-headed, it turns out he was just pretending before, and he really misjudged. Him. But it wasn’t unexpected. This was in line with Wang Sitsong’s identity and background. As a top -tier rich second generation, Wang Sitsong’s upbringing destined him to be a rational person, impossible to have such a mindset towards a woman. Otherwise, it would be a laughingstock if it got. Out. Bro, I’m out of the game now, it’s all up to you. Wang Sikon said nonchalantly, not caring at all. You have to help me save face, after. All, I’ve been pursuing Yangmi for so long. Just giving up like this is a bit hard to swallow. You’re my brother, and Yangmi clearly has feelings. For you, you must win her over tonight. As my good brother, if you win her over, it’s like I’ve won her over too. So, in a way, I won’t be at a. Loss. It’s also a way to avenge my brother. UTM. I was worried about you for nothing. Wang Chen was initially concerned that Wang Sikong might be feeling down, feeling bad for him as a brother, but it was clearly unnecessary. Just when did Wang Sikong develop such a twisted sense of humor? Wang Chen shook his head and stepped towards the door. Just as he reached for the doorknob, a flying cushion suddenly hit him in the back. Turning around, he caught Wang Sikong making faces and suddenly burst into laughter. Don’t take it lightly, now that Yang Mi is divorced, there are so many people eyeing her. If someone else gets to her first, you’ll be at a big loss. You’re my brother, so I’m giving you this chance. If it were someone else, I wouldn’t be willing. If I can’t have her, no one else should think they can. Don’t leave, you need to think this through. She’s a big star. Wang Chen turned around, helplessly looking at Wang Sikong, who was acting like a monkey, so I become your gun now. Aren’t you afraid that if I really take Yang Mi, you’ll feel heartbroken when you see us later? Wang Sikong exaggeratedly snapped his fingers, leaping off the sofa, and in a few quick steps, he was in front of Wang Chen, putting his arm around his shoulder. If you really have that ability, I, Wang, Sikong, will throw you a celebration banquet on the spot. You’re my brother, it’s better to benefit you than someone else. He suddenly lowered his voice, a glint of cunning in his eyes, but seriously, Yangmi looks charming, but she’s quite stubborn at heart. If you really have feelings for her, you better be prepared to get serious. If you run into something you can’t handle, just say the word, and I’ll find you a few seasoned players in the dating game to share their experiences. We’ll help you analyze and strive to win over Yangmi as soon as possible. Wang Sikong released his. Grip, speaking nonchalantly, go on, go on, and remember to report back to your brother on the situation. Wang Chan rarely paid attention to this. Lively character, turning to push open the villa’s door. He glanced back at Wang Sikong, who was still making faces at him, and couldn’t help but. Laugh and scold, you should worry about those lonely internet celebrities in your phone. Are you feeling envious and jealous? Wang Sikong said. Nonchalantly. I’m off. Wang Chun chuckled lightly and walked towards Yang Mi outside. After meeting up with Yang Mi, they headed towards the parking area together. The two were somewhat quiet along the way, Wang Chen didn’t speak, while Yang Mi stole a glance at him. I have something to do, so. I’m leaving first. Let’s skip the meal. Arriving in front of his beloved car, Wang Chen turned to Yang Mi and said. Didn’t young master Wang say we. Would have a meal together? Why are you backing up now? Yang Mi’s beautiful big eyes were filled with charm as she smiled and said, you are now. My big boss, I’m your subordinate employee. What’s wrong with having a meal? Wang Chen looked at Yang Mi calmly fiddling with the car keys in his hand. Yang Mi glanced at Wang Chen and said generously, Wang Xiao, you helped me and I’m not someone who doesn’t know how to be grateful. Otherwise, how would I face others if this gets out? She continued, moreover, the fate of the company is in your hands now. I should at least report to you about the company’s current situation so you can give some work instructions. Otherwise, you just invested in the company and if it starts losing money soon after, I wouldn’t even have the face to see you. Yang Mi put on a pitiful act and said, just think of me as a little employee, trying to curry favor with you. Let’s have a meal together. Are you afraid of being spotted by the paparazzi with me? Wang Chen smiled slightly, not taking Yang Mi’s joke seriously. The chairman of Josheng Media had always been Yang Mi, and under her leadership, the annual profits were substantial. He, an outsider, had no idea how to give any directives. As long as Yang Mi kept things steady and didn’t invest recklessly, the company wouldn’t incur losses. Get in the car, Wang Chen nodded and pressed the key in his hand. The headlights of the Koningseg Jesko lit up instantly. After speaking, Wang Chen ignored Yang Mi and directly opened the cool door of the Koningseg Jesko and sat down. It wasn’t quite appropriate for Yang Mi to drive her car or follow behind. The media across the internet were all focused on Yang Mi. If Yang Mi invited joshing media’s employees to dinner, Wang Chen wouldn’t worry, to outsiders, it would just seem like a regular gathering. But if Yang Mi had dinner alone with Wang Chen, that wouldn’t work. The media wouldn’t care what the two of them were doing together, they would just assume it was a date. After all, the hottest topic online right now was Yang Ni’s divorce. If the paparazzi caught wind of Wang Chen and Yang Ni together and leaked it, it would be explosive news. Wang Chen was already popular online, being the new national husband. Coupled with Yang Ni’s fame, it would be something else. It was hard to imagine how excited the netizens would be. If that happened, even those behind Wang Chen would find it difficult to suppress such explosive news. Moreover, seeking. Out his grandfather to use his influence for something like this would be too embarrassing. Wang Chen didn’t dare face his grandfather’s gaze. It’s would be social death. His grandfather always teased him about having too many girlfriends and adding Yang Ni to the mix would be a lot. But if Yang Ni took his car, it would be much safer. At least they wouldn’t be targeted by paparazzi because of the car. Yang Ni didn’t refuse and opened the car door sliding in. Under the constraint of the seatbelt, her fiery figure was fully revealed. Wang Chen’s gaze involuntarily drifted over. She truly lived up to her name as a big secret. Not bad. Thank you, President Wang, for having a meal with this little employee. I’m really grateful. Yang Mi noticed Wang Chen’s gaze and instinctively pushed her ample chest forward, her eyes full of smiles. She casually stretched out her long legs, her slender beauty almost making Wang Chen unable to look away. You’re too polite. Securing this good investment is also thanks to you. Wang Chen swallowed hard and tightened his grip on the steering wheel. She was truly a mesmerizing vixen. Since Wang Chen’s rebirth he was no longer. The naive young boy he once was, he was quite experienced in matters between men and women. Yet, in front of Yang Mi, he always found himself easily. Stirred. And my contribution? Yang Mi suddenly leaned closer, her hair brushing against his arm, her warm breath grazing his ear. Shouldn’t I get a little tangible reward? What do you want? Wang Chen countered. Well, that depends on what President Wang is willing to give this little. Girl. Yang Mi chuckled and settled back in her seat. Wang Chen didn’t mind. After spending time together, he had come to understand that Yang Mi’s. personality was like this people from the capital liked to chat after all she had dared to tease him the first time they met moreover now that they were familiar with each other and knowing that wang chen was quite approachable they relaxed even more and various risque jokes came easily to their lips with the troubles that the company resolved they felt at ease and were more willing to share some playful banter with wang chen where’s the restaurant wang chen looked ahead not responding to yang ni’s question not far yang ni took out her phone to navigate for wang chen This restaurant is quite private, I usually like to come here to eat. The privacy is excellent, and the paparazzi definitely won’t find us. Not. Only is this restaurant private, but the dishes are also exceptional. She turned to look at Wang Chen, her eyes sparkling with a hint of mystery. Especially their chef, who used to be a master chef for state banquets. Once you taste his skills, you won’t forget it. As they spoke, Wang Chen followed the navigation, and the car turned into a quiet alley. Under the dim streetlights, the weathered walls of the old buildings exuded a touch of vintage charm. Yang Mi pointed to a door draped with a dark curtain ahead. We’re here. Don’t be fooled by the unassuming exterior, inside, it’s a whole different world. Wang Chen parked the car and was about to get out when he saw Yang Mi already deftly unbuckling her seatbelt. As she got out, she slightly bent down, accentuating her alluring figure, her fair and rosy feet stepping into delicate high heels. When she reached Wang Chen’s side, she suddenly linked her arm with his and sweetly smiled, Young Master Wang, let’s go in. Wang Chen surveyed the surroundings and nodded. This. Place was indeed quite private. Who would have thought a big star would come to such a place for a meal? Yang Mi pushed open the heavy wooden door. The warm yellow light inside poured down. The restaurant was decorated in a simple yet elegant style, with individual private rooms, and a soothing. Sound of Gucci music faintly reached their ears. Miss Yang, your usual spot is ready, a waiter greeted respectfully as soon as Yang Mi arrived. Great, Yang Mi smiled and nodded, turning to Wang Chen, every detail here is meticulously arranged, even the calligraphy and paintings on the screens. were done by masters the owner hired. She led Wang Chen through the winding corridor and stopped at a private room by the window. Inside the room, the table was already set with exquisite appetizers, and outside, the bamboo forest swayed gently with moonlight filtering through the carved window panes onto the blue brick floor. Yang Mi elegantly sat down and poured tea for both of them. Try this, it’s aged poor tea that’s been treasured. For many years, quite valuable, and hard to find outside. No wonder you keep coming here, just this tea is impressive. Wang Chen picked up the teacup and sniffed, the rich aroma mixed with the scent of aging wafting towards him, making him raise an eyebrow. Of course, Yang Mi rested her. Shin on her hand, her fingers playfully twirling a strand of hair, I brought you here not just for the tea. Suddenly, she leaned forward, revealing. A glimpse of her fair skin. About this matter with the company, if it weren’t for your help, I wouldn’t know what to do. I really have to thank you. It was just a small favor, it wasn’t a big deal for me, Wang Chin smiled and lowered his head, glancing at the fair abyss before him. A small. Favor? Yang Mi tilted her head and laughed lightly, her hair brushing against his hand. This message ushing media, so many people are avoiding it. And only young master Wang has the guts to tackle it. At that moment, the waiter began to serve the dishes one after another. The dishes leaned. Towards the flavors of the magic city but were all exquisitely plated. Crab roe tofu. Stir-fried shrimp. Sizzling eel. Osmantha’s sweet lotus. Pickled fresh. The private room was instantly filled with delightful aromas. Wang Chen’s fingers itched, picking up a piece of fresh. bamboo shoot and savoring it in his mouth. It was incredibly fresh. Yang Mi scooped up a spoonful of appetizing crab roe tofu, the amber-colored tofu, looking irresistibly tempting. This crab roe was made from seasonal hairy crabs, and it simmered with chicken broth for two and a half hours. Incredibly delicious. She suddenly brought the spoon to Wang Chen’s lips, her eyes sparkling, young master wine, give it a try. Does it suit your taste? Wang Chen’s lips curled up as he tilted his head to accept the spoonful of tofu, the steaming crab roe tofu instantly melted on the tip of the tongue, the fresh aroma mingling with the bean fragrance, rushing straight to the taste buds. How is it? Tastes good, right? Yang Mi looked at Wang Chen with her big eyes filled with anticipation. It really does taste good, Wang Chen sighed. No wonder a big star like Yang Mi would come to a place like this, the flavor was truly remarkable. People who aren’t true foodies wouldn’t even know about such places. After receiving Wang Chen’s affirmation, Yang Mi’s smile became even brighter, her big eyes turning into crescent moons. She picked up a nearby wine glass, poured a glass of decanted red wine for Wang Chen, and filled her own glass as well. Then, raising her glass, she smiled at Wang Chen and said, Young master Wang, I toast to you. Just as you like, Wang Chen nodded, not refusing, and clinked glasses with Yang Mi before taking a sip. However, Yang Mi downed her glass of red wine in one go. Then she poured herself another full glass and drank it down again. They had just started eating, yet she had already consumed quite a bit of wine. Wang Chen didn’t stop her. Yang Mi seemed to be in a good mood, as if the divorce and company issues hadn’t affected her. Negatively. Although Yang Mi was a star, she was still human, and her mood could be affected by events. Women’s ability to handle pressure isn’t particularly strong. Such troublesome matters kept piling up. But Yang Mi kept these worries bottled up inside, always greeting the world with a smile, facing everyone with a cheerful demeanor, possessing a big heart. Yet these negative emotions were still trapped within her, unable to be released. Now that her troubles were completely resolved, Yang Ni gradually relaxed. She had no other thoughts, just wanting to indulge a little, drink some wine, and have fun. She wasn’t worried about getting drunk in front of Wang Chin being dangerous. After a few glasses of red wine, Yang Ni’s cheeks flushed a charming red, and her gaze became hazy. Tilting her head, her fingers unconsciously traced the rim of her wineglass and she suddenly, chuckled softly, Young Master Wang, do you know? During this time, I’ve been holding on every day, afraid that if I show it, people will laugh at me. Just a word or a facial expression can be interpreted in various ways, as long as you show weakness, they think of bullying you. Her voice carried. A hint of hoarseness, being a star looks glamorous on the surface, but inside, I’m more exhausted than anyone. As she spoke, she propped her chin. On her hand, her gaze fixed on Wang Chen, but today is different, being with you makes me feel particularly relaxed. I can be my true self. After all, you’re my boss now. With you backing me up at joshing, I don’t have to be so tired anymore. Yang Mi suddenly reached out and took Wang. Chen’s hand, in the past, when discussing collaborations, those bosses looked at me with such disdain. Either calculating benefits or sizing up. My body, as if they wanted to devour me. Unlike you. You neither calculate benefits nor size me up, even if you do, it’s all very straightforward. Much better than those sleazy men. Alright, stop drinking, if you keep going, you’ll really be drunk. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and pressed. Down on Yang Mi’s hand as she reached for the wine glass again. Yang Mi giggled, so what if I get drunk? I’m not afraid, after all, young master Wang. won’t just leave me on the street. She suddenly stood up, her steps unsteady in her high heels, yet she firmly supported herself on Wang Chen’s shoulder. The scent of rose perfume mixed with the aroma of red wine wafted towards him, her cascading hair brushing against his ear, do you know? On the day I got divorced, I was trending online, and my fans were arguing in the comments section, but I had to time my crying. Yang Ni’s eyes turned red, and she sniffled, afraid that if I cried too long, I’d be photographed by paparazzi at the event the next day, and then it would be overly interpreted. Just as Wang Chen was about to speak, Yang Mi had already collapsed onto him, her soft body nearly falling into his embrace. She tilted her head back, gazing at the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, her eyes streaming. Now it’s good, you’re my boss. In the future, you’ll take care of me, right? The moonlight outside filtered through the bamboo shadows, casting a gentle glow on Yang Mi’s somewhat pitiful little face. He pulled out a tissue and gently wiped the wine from the corner of her mouth, his fingertips brushing against a damp spot, unable to tell whether it was wine or tears. Outsiders only saw the glamorous side of the big star, but how much heartache remained unknown behind the scenes. The bamboo forest outside rustled softly. Only this private room with Yang Mi and Wang Chen seemed to be a secluded place, cut off from the disturbances of paparazzi and media gossip. Only a drunken woman, having shed her disguise, remained. It turned out that even the most dazzling star was just immortal. Stumbling through the smoke and fire of this world. After enduring the hardships of life, the tears swallowed would eventually become the brightest. diamonds, transforming her into the most praised leading lady. Wang Chen looked at Yang Mi who was babbling nonsense in his arms, her reddened eyes, still glistening with unshed tears, her eyelashes fluttering slightly with each breath. He sighed softly, called the waiter to settle the bill, which came to 26,380 yuan. Yang Mi insisted on paying. Wang Chen watched her swaying figure and shook his head with a smile. They stepped outside. What’s your address? Let me take you home, Wang Chen asked gently, trying to rouse the somewhat dazed Yang Mi. But she suddenly wrapped her arms tightly. Around his neck, her voice choked with tears as she said, I have no home anymore, I’ve been abandoned, woo woo woo. I have no home. Her voice. Was thick with endless grievance and loneliness. I can’t just take you to my home, can I? If the paparazzi find out, the headlines would explode. Wang Chen shrugged, speaking with a hint of helplessness. This woman really knew how to give him a headache, how could she trust him so completely? With her drunken self? It was too much trust. Should he just throw her into a hotel instead? What are you afraid of, Wang Xiao? are you scared of these boring media i’m not afraid why should you be yang mi laughed suddenly at his words her laughter tinged with a tipsy cunning she paused rummaging in wang chan’s arms to pull out her phone revealing a string of addresses this is a house i bought privately no one knows you mustn’t tell anyone okay she squinted her eyes like a child handing the phone to wang chan her gaze filled with trust wang chan took the phone looking at the unscrupulous navigation address on the screen a strange emotion stirring in his heart in the night yang mi leaned against him, mumbling some unintelligible words. Wang Chen helped her into the car, started the engine, and drove towards the secret address. The neon lights. Outside the car window flickered by and the air inside was filled with a faint mix of rose perfume and the scent of alcohol, at that moment, it felt. As if the whole world consisted only of the two of them. An hour later, Wang Chen drove the Koenigseg Adra to the destination. It was located. In the suburbs, in a villa area that seemed to have decent privacy. As the car entered the driveway of the villa, neatly trimmed wintergreen trees lined. the asphalt road. The villas were scattered along the hillside. Each villa was surrounded by waist-high iron fences and walls of climbing roses. The vines swaying gently in the night breeze, with moonlight filtering through the branches and vines casting patterns on the ground. Wang Chen slowed. Down, the tires crunching over the fallen petals, making a soft rustling sound. Yang Mi had a good eye. Although this place was in the suburbs, the scenery was nice and the privacy and security were quite good. If the paparazzi could find such a place, Wang Chen would have to admire them. Arriving in front of a villa, Wang Chen drove the car into the basement. Then he helped Yang Mi out of the car, took the elevator up to the main floor. Of the villa, Wang Chen surveyed the living room before him. The overall decor leaned towards a modern minimalist style. There were four floors in. Total. It seemed like someone came to clean regularly, the living room was spotless, and even the refrigerator was stocked with fresh ingredients. As soon as Yang Mi returned home, she kicked off her shoes and tossed them aside, she revealed her delicate, fair feet, with bright red nail polish. adorning her toes, making her look particularly cute. Yang Ni walked in barefoot and lay down on the sofa. She gazed at Wang Chan and, with a flirtatious, look, said, Wang Xiao, how can you be so handsome? I’ve never seen such a handsome boy before. Wang Chen poured her a glass of water and, was about to leave. Yang Ni continued, Wang Xiao, you helped me, and I want to repay you well, how about I offer myself to you? Yang Ni looked, at Wang Chen’s handsome face with eyes full of affection, growing fonder with each glance, her lips curving into a smile, nearly drooling. back on the cream-colored leather sofa, exposing a patch of snowy white skin on her thigh. She gently hooked her toes around the hem of Wang Chen’s pants, her voice sweet and laced with the scent of alcohol. Wang Xiao, don’t you want to experience the feeling of being pursued by a big star? You’re drunk, Wang Chen replied flatly. Yang Ni propped herself up on the sofa, resembling a lazy kitten, inching closer to Wang Chen. I’m very sober, she said, her fingertip tracing over his Adam’s apple, pausing at his collar. I remember our first meeting in your office very clearly. You kept staring at my chest. Suddenly, she tiptoed closer, her warm breath brushing against his ear, why are you pretending to be a gentleman? Now. Just as Wang Chen was about to speak, Yang Mi fell into his arms and kissed him. The slippery sensation left Wang Chen stunned. He didn’t. Expect Yang Mi to be so proactive and to kiss him so forcefully. Drunk, Yang Mi was completely different from her usual self, particularly bold. Horror. Entire body pressed tightly against Wang Chen’s, her small hands roaming freely. After a while, perhaps seeing that Wang Chen wasn’t making any further. Moves, Yang Mi lifted her head and bit Wang Chen’s lip again, her voice laced with a teasing tone, stop pretending. Wang Xiao, you clearly. Want this too. Wang Chen savored the softness of her tongue. Who could resist this? He certainly couldn’t. No longer hesitating, Wang Chen rapped. His arms around Yang Mi’s waist. Since Yang Mi was being so forward, refusing would mean he wasn’t a man. So this was Yang Mi’s true way of showing. Gratitude, next time, please come with more. Wang Chen eagerly sought her out. Wait. Yang Mi suddenly chuckled, Wang Xiao, don’t you wanna know? Which floor the master bedroom of this villa is on? He he, Wang Xiao, come catch me. With that, Yang Mi turned and ran upstairs. Wang Chen watched. Her alluring figure with interest, she really knew how to move. No wonder she was a star. Arriving on the second floor, Wang Chen caught her before he could say anything. Yang Mi had already tiptoed and bitten his Adam’s apple, teasingly grinding against him, her slender waist twisting restlessly. In his grasp, Wang Chen chuckled softly, bending down to scoop her up. As their eyes met, a glimmer of triumph flashed in Yang Mi’s hazy, drunken gaze, only to be drowned out by a passionate kiss. The next day, morning light streamed through the curtains casting a glow on the bedroom carpet. The tassels of the crystal chandelier swayed slightly, reflecting tiny golden sparks. Wang Chin woke up first, feeling cold droplets of water. Slide down his neck into his collarbone, startling him into a shiver. Looking closely, he realized it was Yang Mi lying on his chest, a glimmer of saliva at the corner of her mouth. Wang Chin gazed at the sleeping Yang Mi, a smile creeping onto his lips. No wonder so many people online said. They liked older sisters. She really knew how to please. There was nothing she didn’t understand, she could do any dance move. Plus, her age was just. Right, possessing the vitality and charm of a young girl while exuding the unique allure of a mature woman. No wonder Wang Sikong was so infatuated. With Yang Mi, she was truly captivating. The faint red marks from last night’s passionate encounter were visible on her skin beneath the slightly. Open collar of her nightgown, particularly I dash catching Dai in her deep sleep, Yangmi shed her sharp and capable demeanor, her crimson lips slightly, pouting. In this moment, she was no longer the strong woman but resembled a sleepy little girl. Wang Chen reached out to gently wipe away the drool. At the corner of her mouth, his fingertip brushing against her delicate, warm skin. She unconsciously let out a soft hum, nuzzling her face against his chest, her hair brushing against his body, causing his throat to involuntarily move. Remembering how she had playfully begged for mercy and actively sought kisses last night. The contrast with her now quiet and docile sleeping face was oddly striking. So adorable. Outside the window, the sunlight grew increasingly bright, bathing the entire room in warm tones. Wang Chen looked at Yang Mi in his arms, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes. He activated his true sight and gazed at the beauty in his embrace, instantly revealing Yang Mi’s information before him. Name, Yang Mi Age. 32 height, 166 cm charm, 94 physique, 85 favorability, 94 skills, acting, advanced, singing, advanced. The favorability had increased. Significantly. It seemed that last night’s efforts were not in vain. Yangmi’s eyelashes fluttered, she groggily rubbed against Wang Chen’s chest. Suddenly catching a whiff of an unfamiliar male scent, instantly waking her up. As she lifted her head, their eyes met, and memories of last night. Surged back like a tide, causing her cheeks to flush bright red. After a night of intense activities and a long, tiring sleep, Yang Mi’s sharp mind regained its dominance. However, she did not act like a little girl, shouting or feeling embarrassed. Instead, she calmly looked at Wang Chan and said, have you seen enough? She bit her lip, trying to prop herself up, but let out a soft sigh due to the soreness in her waist. Not at all, Wang. Chan replied with a smile. He leaned down to bite her lip, applying a slightly punishing pressure. What? Now that you’re sober, you want to deny. It’s… His palm slid down her back, gently squeezing her waist, eliciting a soft hum from Yang Mi. The proactive and passionate woman from last night, had now regained some of her coolness in his embrace, and this contradictory contrast only made him more fascinated. Are you planning to cling to? Me, Wang Xiao? Yang Mi placed her hand against his chest, her eyes sparkling with an uncontrollable allure. She deliberately arched her back, causing her nightgown to slip further down, revealing her delicate collarbone and large patches of fair skin. Aren’t you afraid of being photographed by? The media and trending again tomorrow? Though she said this, she leaned in closer, whispering in his ear, but if I could trend with Wang Xiao, it wouldn’t be a loss. Wang Chen chuckled at her words and rolled over, pinning her beneath him. His eyes burned with desire as he leaned down and said, since it wouldn’t be a loss, why don’t we? Wait. Yang Mi rubbed her sore thighs, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes, then explained. How about you take a shower first? Relax a bit, we were busy all night, and we’re both sweaty. Alright, Wang Chen said, lowering his head too. sniff his arm, indeed catching a whiff of sweat. He then got up and headed toward the bathroom. Once Wang Chen left, Yang Mi let out a sigh of relief. Her gaze on his figure filled with complexity. Drinking had caused trouble. She never expected things would develop to this point, after all, he was her boss, ten years younger than her. Oh my, how could she make such a mistake? Yang Mi admitted that Wang Chen was very handsome and had a strong, masculine presence. Especially since he had helped her deal with Zhang Jia and the others, acquiring their shares and becoming the company’s largest. shareholder. He had done her a great favor. Plus, Wang Chen was tall, handsome, and had an impressive family background. He was top -notch among men. No girl in the world would refuse a man like Wang Chen. Even though she had been married and had just divorced, she still felt a flutter for him. But feeling a flutter was one thing. She never intended to have anything happen with Wang Chen. Thinking about how she was last night, young me, couldn’t help but feel her cheeks burning. It was just too embarrassing. She had always joked around in front of Wang Chen. However, her upbringing. had made her a rather conservative woman. Even in the entertainment industry where the unspoken rules for female stars are commonplace, she had never degraded herself. If she had wanted to, her career wouldn’t have been so difficult. And now, inexplicably, she had developed an inappropriate relationship with Wang Chen. Yang Mi didn’t regret it, though, she was already divorced and who she was with was no one else’s business. After all, she had actively seduced Wang Chen. He was a young man in his prime and if he could refuse her, she would really start to doubt whether she was. getting old, losing her charm. Perhaps it was the immense pressure she had been under lately, with her marriage and company issues coming one after. Another, leaving her overwhelmed. Maybe deep down, she just wanted to relax. Or perhaps it was Wang Chen’s forbidden face that had captivated her. Plus, she had drunk so much last night. Making a few mistakes in front of Wang Chen was actually understandable. Yang Mi thought about Wang Chen’s strong body, being his girlfriend could be quite happy. Before long, Wang Chen emerged from the bathroom draped in a small bathrobe, revealing his. clearly defined 8-pack abs. Given that Yang Mi’s figure was indeed a bit petite compared to Wang Chen’s, he could only wear it like that. Yang Mi looked at Wang Chen’s physique, which was even better than a fitness coach’s, her eyes filled with little stars. His body was just too good. Full. Chest muscles, 8-pack abs, and a V-line. Biceps. The triceps and triceps were all particularly perfect, strong and full of power. Even from a casual angle, the muscle lines were incredibly clear. He exuded the aura of a strong man. yangmi couldn’t care about feeling shy anymore after everything that happened last night what was wrong with her looking at her man’s body she secretly sighed in her heart how could wang chin be so perfect in every way was he a favored child of heaven yangmi noticed that wang chen’s hair was still a bit damp so she had him sit on the bed she picked up the hairdryer and carefully dried his hair not bad you’re quite considerate wang chen nodded in satisfaction this was the first time a woman had been so proactive in drying his hair Older sisters were indeed much better than younger girls. Oomph. Yang Mi let out a light hum, deliberately blowing the hairdryer towards Wang Chen’s face, causing his hair to dance wildly in the airflow, making it hard for him to open his eyes. She squinted her eyes and leaned closer to him, her cherry lips intentionally pouting high, is young master wine giving me orders? Who was it that made me unable to get out of bed last night? You were just bullying me, and now that you’re dressed, you turn your back on me, right? I remember. It was you who actively seduced me. Wang Chin gently tugged, pulling Yang Mi into his embrace. She gasped and fell onto his thigh, instinctively. Supporting herself against his firm chest muscles, the sensation at her fingertips causing her cheeks to flush again. Clearly, someone got drunk and insisted on throwing herself at me. He leaned down, his nose almost brushing against her face. Now you’re turning the tables on me? Yang Mi’s eyelashes fluttered as she tilted her head to meet his burning gaze, suddenly reaching out to tug at his damp hair tips. Young Master Wang is so eloquent. Why didn’t you use these words last night? She deliberately swayed her slender waist, the neckline of her nightgown slightly opening with the movement, or do you mean biting her lip slightly? That young master Wang prefers to let his actions speak in bed? I thought my boss was an upright person, but on the first day of being his employee, I ended up being subjected to the unspoken rules. What a bad person. Yang Mi’s slightly bitten lip drew even closer to Wang Chen. Her warm breath brushed against Wang Chen’s face, making him feel a ticklish sensation. A bad person? Wang Chen asked with great interest, since you say I’m a bad person, if I don’t do something, then I would be disrespecting your title. What? Do you want me to do? Wang Chen finished speaking and wrapped his arms around Yang Mi’s slender waist, leaning his face closer to her rosy lips. Yang Mi couldn’t help but feel a bit flustered. How could this be happening? After a whole night of tossing and turning, isn’t he tired? Yang Mi instinctively turned her head to refuse, but under Wang Chen’s mischievous hands, she felt her whole body go soft, losing all strength, and could. Only be tightly held by him, at his mercy. Young Master Wang, how about next time, it’s broad daylight? What’s wrong with broad daylight? Wang Chin said nonchalantly, his eyes filled with a smile, that’s exactly what I want. Women are like this. When they say no, they actually mean yes, deep down, they are clearly very happy, but their mouths still stubbornly resist. Even a big star like Yang Mi is no exception. She is particularly strong-willed at work, otherwise, she wouldn’t have built the company to such a scale. Now that she can become capital, it is inseparable. from her hard work. During work, she often stays up late to film. This isn’t just an occasional occurrence, but a long -term habit, getting her to admit defeat isn’t that easy. But in front of Wang Chen, even Yang Mi has to concede, raising the white flag and surrender. Wang Chen’s advances are simply too fierce. Time inexplicably moved to the next day. Wang Chen didn’t know what was going on, nor how the day had passed, he only knew. He was constantly fighting, fighting. He didn’t even have time to eat. Wang Chen left Yang Mi’s villa with a satisfied expression, leaving behind a resentful yang me in the room he drove his beloved car back to tian mu palace taking out his phone he discovered that wang si tsung had sent him a bunch of messages wang chen took a closer look and decided to call him back after a moment wang si tsung’s voice came through the phone sounding as if he was still half asleep dude why are you calling me what time is it you know the time huh why did you send me so many messages last night wang chen retorted always asking if i’m around if i’m around barring any accidents i’ll be around for the next 80 years he he Wang Sitsong felt a bit awkward, then said unhappily, Damn, I was having so much fun last night and you didn’t come. Let me tell you, there were. So many girls last night, but you kept ignoring my messages. What were you up to? I couldn’t find you, so I had to call Chen Su and Xin for the hang. Out. Alright, stop pretending to be innocent after taking advantage of me. Wang Chen leaned back on the leather sofa, casually gazing out at the. River view through the floor to ceiling window. Do you think I don’t know about your little gatherings? Hey, you can’t say it like that. On the. Other end of the line, there was the sound of rustling as Wang Sitsong got out of bed, his voice suddenly rising, those models last night had legs that were 1 meter 80 long and their waists were so slim you could almost grasp them with one hand. Whom? Aren’t you just jealous of me? I know you didn’t come last night and now you’re envious of me, huh? Just say it if you’re envious, that’s why you didn’t reply to my messages. Jealous? I was with a woman last night too, Wang Chen said. That woman, is she your girlfriend? Wang Chen couldn’t help but fall into memories. Yang Ni’s enchanting figure reappearing in his mind, she wasn’t yesterday, but she is now. Originally, Wang Chen wanted to tell Wang Sitsong it was Yang Mi, but after thinking it over, he decided against it, fearing it might hurt his fragile feelings. He was already pitiful enough, only able, to find some small internet celebrities to relieve his boredom. But Wang Chen’s words still left Wang Sitsong feeling a bit gloomy. Damn. Wang. Sitsong thought of Wang Chen’s face and knew that this girlfriend couldn’t possibly be unattractive, moreover, even without relying on his family. Background, Wang Chen could easily captivate those young girls just with his looks, he really had to spend money to entice them. Truly, family background. And looks were incomparable. It was enough, in every aspect, Wang Chen was dominating. This made Wang Sitzong’s inflated confidence shrink just a little. Suddenly, Wang Sikon gassed, wait a minute, you didn’t, you didn’t spend the night with Yang Mi, did you? Looks like you guessed it. Right, Wang Chen smirked, tapping his fingers lightly on the armrest of the sofa. This was something he had figured out himself, so he couldn’t be blamed. Suddenly, his phone erupted with exaggerated ringing, forcing him to hold it away from his ear. What the hell? Wang Chen, are you quietly, making big moves? Wang Sitsong’s voice was almost piercing through the phone. Did you really do it? How did you two get together? What do you, mean by get together? She just invited me to dinner, and then it happened. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and said casually. No way, just like that? Are you kidding me? Wang Sikong scoffed, not believing it at all. Wang Chen remained silent. Slowly, Wang Sikong began to realize, and with a hint of. Sorrow, he said, I suddenly regret it, I shouldn’t have let Yang Mi go to you. Damn, Yang Mi has always seen me as a buddy and never as a man. How? Did you manage to get close to her after just a few interactions? Heaven and earth. I can’t take it anymore. Wang Sikong wailed, then suddenly. Lowered his voice and leered, Bro, just spill the beans, what tricks did you use? He paused, his tone filled with unwillingness, I’ve pursued her. For so long, giving her bags and jewelry, taking her to Michelin restaurants, and she didn’t even hold my hand. Is it possible that I’m better looking than you? Wang Chen chuckled lightly. Enough, enough, stop with your humble bragging. Wang Sikong said angrily, but let me make it clear. If you dare to bully Yang Mi, I won’t stand for it. Just as he finished speaking, a woman’s playful voice suddenly came from the other end of the line, principle, who is bullying whom? Sounds quite affectionate, who is this woman next to you? Wang Chen smiled. Ahem, it was an accident. Wang Sikong awkwardly coughed twice, changing the subject, I drank too much last night and I was afraid she was in danger, so I brought her back, to my place to rest for the night. Oh, Principal Wang, your heroics are quite timely, huh? Wang Chen deliberately elongated his tone, mocking, afraid of danger, so you brought the girl home to protect her? You can do it, Wang Sikong muttered under his breath, cursing, damn, you guys, stop talking, followed by several women’s voices coming from the phone. It was unclear what they were up to, but the noise was quite loud. Wang Chen. Felt a headache coming on. He had underestimated this guy, this wasn’t just saving a damsel in distress, it was saving a whole bunch of them. I can’t. Chat anymore, I have something to do. Let’s talk later. Wang Sitsong’s voice suddenly turned strange, and he hurriedly hung up. Wang Chen stared. At the blackened phone screen, his lips twitching uncontrollably. The residual noise from the phone still echoed in his ears, mixed with women’s. Laughter and the sound of clothes rustling. It wasn’t hard to imagine the kind of steamy and chaotic scene unfolding on the other end. As time. Past, new trending topics continuously emerged on the internet, and Yang Mi’s divorce was becoming less and less of a concern for people. Yang Mi’s initial choice was correct, she chose not to respond to the slander and rumors against her. The heat died down quickly. Everyone had put this matter. Behind them, this is a characteristic of the internet age, where information changes too rapidly. No matter how hot a topic is, it will gradually fade with the passage of time. Of course, this also involved Yang Mi spending money through her company to cover up the incident, black and red are. Still Red. During this time, Yang Mi’s explosive popularity brought countless excellent scripts to her, allowing her to choose at will. It could be. Considered a blessing in disguise. Her personal career took another leap forward. Wang Sikong was enjoying himself in the magic city with his little. Girlfriends. His subordinates were handling the follow-up matters with Jiaxing and once everything was completely settled he would take a flight. To the capital. Gradually, the fact that Wang Chen and Wang Sikong had become shareholders of Jiaxing Media was exposed online by someone, sparking. heated discussions across the internet about Wang Chen’s undisputed status as the primary shareholder. However, it was merely a change in company. Shares, and there wasn’t much to say about it, many people saw it but didn’t take it seriously. Wang Chen had previously thought that since he became a shareholder of Jiaxing Media first, some companies might be dissatisfied. Logically, Shangshir film and television should have taken action. After all, it was the last company that targeted Jiaxing Media, only to be seized by Wang Chen in the process. After signing a gambling agreement with Yangmi a few years ago, Shangchur Film and Television had not hidden its ambitions, aiming to completely acquire joshing media. Yangmi’s completion of the gambling agreement had already surprised them. Now, with the shareholder issue resolved, the three people they had bought off, Zheng Jia, were completely useless and their money had gone down the drain. Wang Chen was somewhat looking forward to whether Shangchur Film and Television would retaliate against him, but after waiting for a long time, there was no response. Instead, he waited for the boss of Shangchur Film and Television to come to him personally, visiting Jingtoon capital to show goodwill. The attitude was polite, and the posture was very low. The two chatted about everything, from the development of the entertainment industry to international conflicts. Wang Chen saw through his intentions and didn’t mind having another friend in business, so he didn’t put on any airs. As they chatted, Mr. Wang, I always see you charging into the business world alone. At such a young age, you have such a large enterprise, truly a young and wealthy man. The boss of Shangchur film and television, Zhou Jinpeng, picked up his. Teacup, steam rising, and flattered, the girls in our company admire you greatly and hope to be friends with you. They are all talented and beautiful. Skilled in singing, dancing, and everything else. Would you like me to introduce you? Wang Chen chuckled lightly. He understood that Zhou. Jinping’s so-called introduction was merely a disguised attempt at binding interests. He was well aware of such tactics in the entertainment industry, where beauty is used as bait. There had been many such news stories online. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Zhou, but I’m focused on my career. So there’s no need for that. Wangshin politely declined with a faint smile, his voice steady and powerful, showing no reluctance after the refusal. The girls from Shangshir film and television were either stars or future stars. It was indeed hard for an ordinary person to refuse. However, Zhou Jianpeng was persistent, putting down his teacup and leaning in closer, lowering his voice, Mr. Wang, please don’t misunderstand, this is not just a casual friendship. The girls I’m introducing to you are all the best in our company. I believe they can help you in your future development. In the entertainment industry. Wang Chen shook his head and picked up his teacup to sip the tea. Zhou Jianpeng seemed to be playing matchmaker, but, in reality, he wanted to bind him into his own circle of interests. Looking at Zhou Jianpeng’s respectful yet flattering demeanor, Wang Chen couldn’t help but find it amusing. It seemed that no matter where one was, having a strong fist was the first element that earned others’ respect. To counter the ban on Hui Guang media, Wang Chen had called on the broadcasting and television authorities to take strong action and suppress everything. Now it seemed the effect was quite good. At least these entertainment industry bosses understood respect in front of him. However, Wang Chen still declined his goodwill because he simply couldn’t bring himself to engage with women involved in interest exchanges. He had no interest in that. The last time he took action against Hwaeguang media was entirely because the other party had broken the rules and used improper means. That was why Wang Chen had employed equivalent methods. But the boss of Shangshir film and television had never provoked Wang Chen and had no grievances with him, Zhou. Jianpeng saw that Wang Chan’s attitude was resolute, yet he still wore a flattering smile on his face. He picked up his teacup and took a small sip, as if weighing his words. Mr. Wang, I truly admire your composure. He sat down the teacup and said earnestly, but rest assured, these are all original and absolutely flawless. Wang Chan paused for a moment, his hand holding the teacup, and shook his head with a smile. He raised an eyebrow. And chuckled, Mr. Zhou, that’s an interesting statement. People aren’t commodities, where do originals and flaws come from? Mr. Wang. Don’t misunderstand. I’m saying this for your own good. Haha. Zhou Jianpeng chuckled awkwardly, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the teacup. He tried several more times, but seeing that Wang Chen truly didn’t want it, he finally gave up, leaving Wang Chen speechless. Zhou Jianpeng sighed, feeling regretful that he couldn’t get closer to Wang Chen. Mr. Wang, with such a clear mind and few desires, you make me, a mere mortal, feel ashamed. As he spoke, Zhou Jianpeng pulled out a gold embossed business card from his briefcase. This is my personal contact information, I hope Mr. Wang can accept it. Wang Chin took the card and casually set it aside, showing no intention of seeing him off. Mr. Zhou, take care, no need to see. You off. Zhou Jianpeng hit a soft wall but still maintained a smile on his face. He nodded slightly and turned to leave. Once Zhou Jianpeng’s footsteps completely faded at the end of the corridor, Wang Chin suddenly chuckled, his laughter tinged with three parts mockery and seven parts indifference. Just now, Zhou Jianping seemed persistent in trying to connect Wang Chen, but in reality, every word was testing his attitude towards the entertainment industry’s unspoken rules and his bottom line. Those so-called original and flawless words were merely a touchstone, probing weather. He would waver from his principles for beauty, whether he could be bound by interests. After all, the weakness he had exposed was his fondness for women. It’s no wonder the entertainment industry is said to be a big dive at, these company bosses can speak such words so easily, while privately. Countless girls sacrifice something for resources. Wang Chen didn’t take such matters to heart. Time passed. Before Long, it was November. At the exclusive helipad of Hongqiao airport in the Magic City, shrouded in a layer of misty morning fog. After parking the car, Leng Fong quickly got out and respectfully opened the door of the culinan for Wang Chen. Wang Chen stepped out of the car and glanced at the empty runway around him. Why haven’t they arrived yet? Wang Chen frowned. Young Master Xiang said it will take a little longer, Long Lily said as she approached Wang. Chen, looking somewhat unhappy. Wang Chen raised his hand to check the time on his Vacheron Constantine 6620C -000 or B656 Loft Craftsman series watch. It was already 9 o ‘clock. The morning fog gradually dispersed and sunlight broke through the clouds, spilling onto the helipad. Young Master Siang’s private plane is delayed due to weather conditions and will take another half an hour to arrive, Long Lily said, scrolling through her phone, her head lowered. Still unhappy about not being able to leave together? Wangchen suddenly spoke, his deep voice startling Long Lily, who looked up in. Surprise! She met Wangchen’s half-smiling eyes and suddenly felt her little thoughts were laid bare, her cheeks flushing. No. I’m just worried. About the schedule, she turned her face away, her fingers unconsciously rubbing her phone, but Wangchen gently grasped her wrist. Are you still lying in front of me? Wangchen smiled slightly and pulled Long Lily directly into his embrace. Lung Phong, seeing this, immediately turned to look. Into the distance. Long Lily bumped into Wang Chan’s solid chest, the strong heartbeat echoing in her ears. Wang Chan ruffled her soft hair, do you, want to leave with me? Hmm, I don’t know how long you’ll be gone this time. Just thinking about it makes my heart feel heavy, Long Lily’s, face turned completely red as she mumbled in his arms. Wang Chan gently rubbed his chin against the top of Long Lily’s head, a tender smile on his, face. Why do you act like a child? It’s only been a moment since we parted and you already can’t bear it. This time going to Hong Kong will be at, most a week. Once I’ve had my fun, I’ll come back immediately. Long Lily raised her head, her watery big eyes fixed on him. Really? At most a week? Don’t lie to me. Of course, when have I ever lied to you? Wang Chen gently brushed his finger over the corner of her reddened eye. You just. Focus on your work at home. My whale capital will be completely entrusted to you. When I’m not around, you are the boss. Long Lily was amused by. This, breaking into a smile as she gently poked Wang Chen’s chest. Who wants to be your stand-in for a hands-off boss? I’m afraid if something goes. Wrong, you’ll blame me. Despite saying this, her eyes were filled with an undeniable sweetness. She felt particularly touched. Wang Chen’s words dispelled a bit of her worry. There were already many women around him. Long Lily was also afraid that not seeing each other for a long time would lead to Wang Chen feeling distant from her. But Wang Chen was indeed saying that whale capital was completely entrusted to her, which showed his trust in her. In wealthy families, power struggles and the importance of money are paramount, yet Wang Chen so readily handed the company over to her. Long Lily knew she couldn’t do much, but this was Wang Chen’s trust in her, only a true woman would be treated this way. He truly had Long Lily in. His heart, not treating her as an outsider. You are my dear wife, I trust you with the company. Wang Chen leaned down and kissed her forehead, a. hint of a smile in his eyes. You’re so annoying, always trying to make me happy. Long Lily pouted, her cheeks flushing, her hands unconsciously. Wrapping around Wang Chen’s strong waist. Why would I lie to you? I’m being sincere. Wang Chen gently rubbed her nose and laughed. If you don’t. believe me who will you believe if i can’t even trust you then there’s no one in this world worth trusting husband you’re so good woo woo woo long lily said tears of emotion streaming down her face as she buried her head in wang chen’s embrace unwilling to come up feeling the sobs coming from her wang chen’s heart softened instantly he held long lily tightly his hand gently stroking her back to comfort her why are you crying again his voice was very soft filled with deep affection if you keep crying you’ll turn into a little kitten and that won’t look good Long Lily buried her face in his chest, refusing to lift her head, mumbling, isn’t it because of you? Wang Shin sighed helplessly, lifting her, delicate little face with his hand, carefully wiping away her tears with his fingers. His movements were gentle, as if touching a fragile treasure. He, gazed at her reddened eyes and nose, his eyes full of affection, my little crybaby, if you keep crying, I might not want to leave. During this time, the company began to get on the right track and he spent more time at the office. It was also thanks to Long Lily being by his side. She helped. handle many matters, allowing Wang Chen to have more free time. Long Lily felt very happy to be able to help Wang Chen and became increasingly attached. To him, not to mention Wang Chen’s efforts in bed. A bit of her small emotions were also soothed by him. This was also why he was so at ease. Letting Long Lily oversee the company. Wang Sikong and Qin Fen were not reliable either. All they did was chase after girls. He didn’t even know how. Long it had been since they last checked on the companies under their names. Chen Su and the little fatty were of the same caliber, indulging in. Pleasures in lingering in flower gardens. Expecting them to go to work at the company? Unless the sun rose in the west. Once I get to Hong Kong, no. Matter how busy I am, I’ll make time to chat with you. Wang Chen smiled and promised, if you miss me, just send me a message. How are you feeling? Now. Ah um hum. Long Lily nodded and rubbed against Wang Chen in his embrace. By the way, during this time, help me contact someone about purchasing a private jet and a private yacht. Wang Chen smiled. He had been talking about buying a plane and a yacht for a while. with so many things happening. At the company lately he had almost forgotten about it. All right. Half an hour later, a faint rumble echoed from the horizon as a private jet slowly pierced through the clouds, descending smoothly towards the ground. The plane taxied to a stop in front of Wang Chan and the others. It was a Gulfstream G650 private jet, considered the top configuration among private jets, priced at 500 million, a symbol of status and identity. The cabin door slowly opened and the staircase automatically extended to the ground. Long Lily saw someone coming and instinctively left. Wang Chen’s embrace quickly walking down. He was dressed in a black trendy hoodie, paired with ripped jeans and wore limited edition sneakers, with an exaggerated silver chain hanging from his waistband, clinking with each step. He wore sunglasses and had a chain around his neck, looking as if he had just come from a show. Hey, my brother! Xiang Zhao shouted, striding forward with open arms to give Wang Chen a bear hug. We finally meet. Again, it wasn’t easy. As he spoke, he exaggeratedly wiped away non-existent tears. Long Lily almost laughed at his goofy appearance. When Xiang Zhao caught sight of her reddened eyes, he immediately knew she was Wang Chen’s girlfriend. He suddenly put on a serious expression, leaned in, and said. In a low voice, sister, don’t cry. Once he gets to Hong Kong, I’ll keep an eye on him every day, I guarantee he won’t even have a chance to look. At beautiful women. He then winked at Wang Chen, right, good brother? That’s unnecessary, just don’t cause me any trouble, Wang Chen replied. With a slight twitch of his mouth, speaking lightly. Alright, then let’s go. Wang Chen hugged Long Lily again, smiling. Come back soon. Long Lily. Sniffled, her mood inevitably a bit low. Okay. Wang Chen patted her on the head and turned to walk towards the plane with Xiang Zhao. Xiang Zhao. Exaggeratedly clutched his chest beside him. Oh, I’m dying of jealousy. If we don’t leave soon, this single dog’s heart will shatter into pieces. Get lost. The bodyguard, Long Feng, approached expressionlessly, taking Wang Chen’s suitcase and following behind him. As they stepped onto the… staircase, Wang Chen walked towards the cabin, with long lily waving goodbye behind him. When he got close to the cabin entrance, too graceful flight. Attendants were already waiting there with smiles. They wore custom deep blue uniforms, black stockings accentuating their elegant figures, and their long black hair was neatly styled. They appeared dignified and capable. Young master Wang, welcome aboard the Xiangyang, one flight attendant. Slightly bowed, her voice crisp and pleasant, her face beaming with smiles. She elegantly extended her hand, guiding Wang Chen into the cabin, her gaze. focused on him, showcasing her professionalism. Wang Chen nodded slightly, his eyes sweeping over them. He couldn’t help but marvel in his heart. The flight attendants on this private jet were indeed impeccable, from their looks to their service etiquette, all top-notch. Stepping into the cabin, a faint scent of lavender wafted through the entire space, soothing the mood and instantly relaxing one’s mind. Wang Chen’s gaze was immediately drawn to the spacious and exquisite layout of the Gulfstream G650. There was none of the cramped feeling typical of commercial aircraft. The floor. was covered in thick, soft cashmere carpet and walking on it felt luxurious, as if stepping on clouds, soft and comfortable. This plane is nice. Wang Chen couldn’t help but murmur. Xiang Zhao plopped down on a nearby sofa, casually crossing his legs and laughing loudly, of course. This Gulfstream G650 is the top configuration among private jets. It was brought in just to pick you up. Wang Chen nodded and sat down beside Xiang Zhao. How much does this plane cost? Wang Chen asked curiously. He had plenty of luxury cars and supercars, but he still didn’t own a private jet or yacht. This was also his first time on a private jet. About 500 million, not much, Xiangzha said nonchalantly. Wang Chen nodded in agreement, saying, indeed, that’s a pretty good price. To be able to buy such a luxurious private jet for 500 million was clearly worth it. The more he looked, the more tempted he felt. Actually, many wealthy people can afford a private jet, but very few can maintain it, Xiangzha remarked, shaking his leg. This Gulfstream G650 has annual maintenance costs of several tens of millions, not to mention fuel costs, parking fees, hangar, rental fees, there are just too many expenses, and many people are deterred from buying it once they hear about it. But for you, these are just trivial matters, Wang Chen nodded. This truly wasn’t much for him. A few tens of millions a year was just a small expense, but for the vast majority of wealthy individuals, it was a significant outlay. Even those on the Forbes list in Hua Gua would have to think carefully before making such a purchase. Those with insufficient cash flow really couldn’t afford it. At this moment, the plane was slowly taxiing, accelerating, and soaring into the clouds. Just then, the flight attendant from earlier walked gracefully and elegantly to Wang Chen’s side. Hello, young master Wang, she said. Slightly bending down to maintain just the right distance, her face adorned with a friendly yet professional smile. She softly added, during the flight, we have prepared a variety of drinks for you, including rich and aromatic freshly brewed coffee, various refreshing and exquisite teas, as well. as top quality red wines, whiskeys, and freshly squeezed juices selected from around the world. Take a look, what would you like to drink? Wang Chen. Thought for a moment and replied, I’ll have a cup of coffee, no sugar, thank you. Alright, young master Wang, please wait a moment, the flight. Attendant responded with a smile, her voice gentle, before turning and walking away with elegant steps. Before long, she returned with a cup of coffee. She kindly reminded Wang Chen, young master Wang, the coffee is a bit hot, so please be careful. If you need anything else later, feel free. to let me know. In front of Xiangzha, another flight attendant was serving him, and he grinned at Wang Chen, saying, Wang Chen, you’re quite the household name in Hua Gua now, even the big stars can’t compare to your popularity. That’s all thanks to old Wang and the others, otherwise, I’d still be a nobody, free to roam wherever I wanted, Wang Chen said, ridding his teeth in frustration, unable to hold back his complaints. Now I have to wear a mask when I go out, or I’ll be recognized in no time. Ha, let me tell you, our stars in Hong Kong, like Zhou Ruanfa, are usually very casual. When they appear on the streets of Hong Kong, they interact harmoniously with everyone, unlike the craziness in the mainland, Xiang Xia laughed and said. I think the fans in the mainland are too crazy and the stars have been elevated too high for a long time. You could try being a stranger to them. Focusing on your own business, these cute fans might not affect your life much, he suggested. That makes some sense, I’ll give it a try later. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and took a sip of his coffee. What troubled Wang Chen the most now was being easily recognized by fans while walking down the street. Xiang Zha’s solution was quite good. There was indeed a significant difference between stars in Hong Kong and those. In the mainland, Hong Kong stars were approachable, even going to the market to buy groceries. The gap was quite large. Leaning back in the soft, leather seat, he gazed out at the rolling sea of clouds through the window. By the way, is there anything fun happening in Hong Kong lately? We can’t. Just head straight to the hotel after getting off the plane. The main reason for inviting you to Hong Kong this time is that our brothers haven’t seen each other in a long time and really miss you. Old master he also appreciates you and wants you to visit Macau for a bit. Xiangzhuo, upon hearing this, helplessly waved his hand and said, this year, the old man stepped down from the position of chairman in June and has now completely withdrawn from the board. His recent health condition may not be very good. What the old man thinks, I believe you should be clear about. Wang Chen chuckled lightly, not saying much more. Since he hongshin fell and injured himself in 2009, after several brain surgeries, his health has. significantly declined, and now he has relinquished his duties to focus on recuperating at home. In the previous life, news about the gambling king. Being critically ill had spread online during this time. Although it turned out to be a false alarm, the gambling king never appeared in public again, clearly indicating his worsening health. After spending a fortune on medical expenses to save his life, he ultimately passed away in 2020. Given his age of 98, it could be considered a peaceful passing. This time, Xiangzhu invited him to Hong Kong and Macau for a visit. A large part. Of this was He Lao Tzu’s intention, and the purpose was obvious, it was merely to take a look at the Wang family behind Wang Chen. The He family is currently developing well, and their influence in Macau is beyond what ordinary people can imagine. But all of this hinges on the old man still being alive. Once he passes away, whether the situation will change is uncertain. Even He Hongchen must consider the future of his descendants, such a vast family business must be preserved. The Wang family behind Wang Chen is clearly an excellent support. When we arrive in Hong Kong, my old man. wants to meet you tonight. Tomorrow, we have a private yacht party prepared at the Central Pier. I believe you will enjoy it, Xiangzhu said, a sly, smile appearing in his eyes. Since I’m on your turf, I must show some hospitality. Since your father has spoken, I will gladly comply, Wang. Chen replied with a smile and a nod. At this party, I will introduce you to a few friends, they are all second generation from various industries, in Hong Kong and are quite close to me. They all want to meet you now that they know you are in Hong Kong. Xiangzhu continued, of course, if you. Find it troublesome, I can cancel this gathering. After all, your family background and connections are something many people covet. You see. After Xiangzhuo finished speaking, he looked at Wang Chen expectantly. After returning to Hong Kong from the high seas, his father, Xianghua Xiang, learned about Wang Chen from his son. After some inquiries, he discovered Wang Chen’s true identity. Xiangzhuo was also quite surprised. He previously knew that Wang Chen’s family was from Pioneer Heavy Industries Group, which is an absolute giant in the heavy industry field. However, he never. expected that the Wang family was such a colossal entity behind Wang Chen. This time, they sent a private jet to pick up Wang Chen, which was a significant gesture, and in front of Wang Chen, they treated him as the main guest. There was no way around it, the disparity in status was too great. Even as friends, it was impossible to relax like ordinary friends. It’s fine, it’s good to meet more friends, Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, not minding. Not to mention giving Xiangzhu a face, even just getting to know these second generation individuals was worthwhile. These second generation. Figures are relatively low-key online, but in reality, especially in Hong Kong, their status is unimaginable. Looking back 30 years, they were figures who could navigate both the black and white worlds. Yet, with their status, they still came to curry favor with him, which only shows that Wang Chen’s identity is still too extraordinary. Alright, as long as you don’t mind, Xiangzhu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and then snapped his fingers. The curtain separating the back row of the plane quietly slid open. A pleasant scent of perfume wafted into the air, prompting. Wang Chen to look back. A woman dressed in an ink-washed chipao stepped out first, her hairstyle up with a white jade hairpin, her slender waist delicate, enough to be grasped with one hand, and the slit of her chipao outlined her snow-white long legs. Following her was a mixed-race woman. She wore 10-centimeter stiletto heels and a silver fringe dress, her skin dazzlingly white, and her blue eyes mixed with exotic charm. There was also a woman in a deep V bodycon dress, moving gracefully, revealing a pair of long legs wrapped in black stockings. Utterly enchanting. Wait, 6. Beautiful women gradually walked out, all top-tier beauties, each standing no shorter than 1.7 meters. Each had their own unique charm. They approached. Wang Chen and Xiangzhuo, standing in a row, and the six beauties call out in unison, their voices crisp and melodious, young master Xiang, young. Master Wang, hello, who is this? Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and glanced at Xiangzhuo, his gaze shifting among the six distinctly styled beauties. A surprise specially prepared for you. How about that, enough for brothers, right? A hint of pride appeared on Xiangzhuo’s face, these are all. The recent rising stars in the modeling world, and I’ve brought them all to you. Xiangzui gave a knowing look to the girls in front of him, aren’t? You all going to serve Young Master Wang well? I’m sure you’ve heard of Young Master Wang’s great name online. If you satisfy him, you won’t miss. Out on your benefits. The first three beauties to step forward consciously approached Wang Chen. The beauty in a chi pao smiled sweetly at Wang Chen. Young Master Wang, my name is Su Chi. I’m Isha, the mixed-race beauty Isha said softly in Chinese with a French accent. The beauty in black. Stockings appeared a bit bold and direct, she stepped onto 10cm stilettos and sat directly on Wang Chen’s lap, the black stockings brushing delicately against his pants. Young master, my name is Infeir, her red lips almost touching Wang Chen’s ear, Infeir’s eyes sparkled with excitement, her face full of delight. Wang Chen had been quite the sensation online lately, he was the top second generation rich kid in Hua Gua. Judging by Xiangzhu’s attitude, Wang Chen’s identity was likely not as simple as just being a rich kid, otherwise, Xiangzhu wouldn’t have this demeanor. ordinary rich kids didn’t receive such treatment in front of him isha and su chi looked at wang chen with expressions of relief it was one thing for wang chen to be a rich kid but how could he be so handsome he looked even more dashing than in the pictures online and his handsome cheeks made them secretly squeeze their legs together if only wang chen would take a liking to them and take them away after getting off the plane wang chen smiled and wrapped his arms around and fair on his lap and fair showed no shyness at all playfully snuggling against him the atmosphere was Almost suffocating. All she felt was gratitude for her boldness and sitting on Wang Chen’s lap, making contact with him first. She knew why she was. Here, being with a handsome guy like Wang Chen was already a pleasant surprise. Suqi and Isha could only exchange helpless glances before eagerly, massaging Wang Chen’s shoulders. Xiangzhuo leaned back in his seat, sipping the champagne the girls had handed him. Not bad, right? They can do. Everything, skilled in all 18 arts. Not bad, but aren’t you pursuing Gua biting? Aren’t you afraid she’ll find out? Wang Chen teased. Given the current timeline, Xiangzhu and Guo Biting were already in a passionate relationship. Wang Chen wasn’t surprised by Xiangzhu’s arrangement. This was just the daily life of a rich kid. If Xiangzhu wasn’t interested in these women, Wang Chen wouldn’t dare to go to Hong Kong with him. He was already a bit strange, that would be a bit scary. I do like Tingting, but that doesn’t stop us men from having a little fun, right? Besides, you’ve come all the way to Hong Kong, how could I spoil the mood? Xiangzhu said nonchalantly, moreover, I’ve been planning to propose to Tingting. Recently, and soon I won’t be a single man anymore, so I need to cherish this happy single time. If all goes well, I plan to marry Ting Ting next. Year. Then congratulations. You better prepare for your wedding feast, Wang Chen nodded and smiled. Xiangzhuo raised his champagne blast to clink. With Wang Chen’s, laughing, of course, I can’t forget you. Amidst the low rumble of the airplane engines, the two chatted about the past events on The Ocean Symphony, recalling how after the auction they encountered Koizumi Shota, which led to a gunfight, and ultimately, Koizumi Shota fled. In a panic. These memories made Xiang Zhao laugh heartily, wishing she hadn’t left with Wang Chen and the others at that time. After a while, feeling tired from the conversation, Xiang Zhao exchanged a knowing smile with Wang Chen and walked towards the girls behind her. I’ll head in. First, there are other rooms, you can go on your own, Wang Chen said, glancing at the departing Xiang Zhao. He felt that sitting on a plane was quite boring, and a wave of sleepiness washed over him. Under the guidance of Anfei and the other girls, he found his room. He took a good rest. Two hours later, the plane landed at Hong Kong International Airport. Once the plane came to a stop, Wang Chen and Xiang Zhao walked towards the aircraft’s door, with their bodyguard, lung foam, quickly following behind. The door opened slowly, and a wave of warm, humid air rushed in, characteristic of Hong Kong’s climate. Although it was already midwinter, there was no sign of the cold season in Hong Kong, the average temperature remained above. 20 degrees, not cold at all, and Wang Chen was dressed just like he was in the Magic City. Wang Chen looked up, the sky outside the airport was somewhat overcast, with heavy clouds piled up, as if it might rain at any moment. The distant mountains were faintly visible through the mist, contrasting with the deep blue sea. The weather in Hong Kong is quite nice, it’s already November, and it’s still so warm, Wang Chen nodded as he walked down the stairs. He was filled with anticipation for Hong Kong as this was his first visit. In his previous life, he had no means to explore it except through the internet or movies, especially Hong Kong films, which occupied his entire youth. In this life, being young and still in school, he had never been here. Now he could truly experience it. This kind of weather is perfect for a stroll by the sea, and then we can enjoy a seafood. Feast in the evening, Xiang Zhao replied with a smile, walking beside him. The three of them walked along the corridor towards the airport hall, surrounded by a bustling crowd. The airport was brightly lit, with modern facilities everywhere, showcasing the splendor of an international metropolis. Wang Chen noticed that the airport signs were clearly marked in both Chinese and English, with a variety of shops ranging from international brands to unique local stores. The familiar Mandarin was no longer heard around him. For Wang Chen, a native of Sichuan, it was somewhat challenging, but he could still understand a few phrases here and there. Soon, they arrived at the airport exit. Just as they reached the exit, a blue Rolls Royce. Ghost came to a smooth stop by the roadside, its body gleaming and exuding luxury even under the somewhat gloomy sky. There were also several black Mercedes-Benz S-Class cars behind it. A few bodyguards dressed in black, wearing earpieces, stood nearby, on alert. The door of the Rolls Royce. opened, and Xiang Tai, dressed in an exquisite and fashionable Chanel outfit with high heels, hurriedly walked towards Wang Chan and Xiang Zhao. Although she was in her 60s, her well-maintained face showed no wrinkles, making her look quite youthful. She wore a warm smile, and before getting close, she called out loudly, Young Master Wang, and my precious son, we’ve finally been waiting for you. Her unique voice stood out amidst the noisy airport exit, drawing the attention of passers-by. It quickly became apparent that this was Xiang Tai, known as the Empress of Kowloon, along. With Xiang Zhao and the mysterious rich second-generation Wang Chen, instantly, many people stopped in the distance to scrutinize them closely, taking out their phones to snap pictures. Only a few people gathered around. At that moment, a chubby man also got out of the car. He was dressed in a formal suit, but his eyes were filled with a fierce look, exuding an unruly aura. He had a demeanor that suggested he was the top dog. With his hands in his pockets, he sauntered over leisurely Xiang Tai had a neat short haircut, and her signature large earrings swayed on either side of her. Sheiks. From a distance, she opened her arms wide and called out in a loud voice, with a hint of a Hong Kong accent in her Mandarin, Wang Xiao, I’ve finally been waiting for you. I’m Xiang’s was mommy, just call me Xiang Tai. You child, I’ve missed you so much. Were you tired on the way here? Xiang Tai walked up to Wang Chen, embraced him, and patted his back with genuine warmth. Xiang Tai, I’m not tired at all. It’s really too kind of. You to come all this way to pick me up. Wang Chen was taken aback by this sudden enthusiasm but quickly relaxed and returned the hug, wearing A polite smile. Beside them, Xiangzhu watched his mother and Wang Chen’s affectionate interaction, shaking his head with a helpless smile, Mom, you’re being too dramatic. Don’t scare Wang Chen. What do you know? Wang Xiao is an esteemed guest and it’s his first time in Hong Kong. I have to show him proper hospitality, Xiang Tai replied, releasing Wang Chen and giving her son a glare. As she spoke, she took Wang Chen’s hand and looked him. Up and down, her eyes filled with affection, look at this child, he’s even more spirited than in the video, really handsome. You can just call. Mi Wang Chen. I really can’t accept being called Wang Xiao, Wang Chen said with a smile, speaking humbly. He was somewhat surprised by Xiang Tai’s enthusiasm. Logically, as the matriarch, she shouldn’t be so warm and proactive, perhaps it’s just the more open culture here in Hong Kong. It’s rare to encounter such hugging etiquette back in the mainland. This child is quite the looker, then I’ll call you Wang Chen, Xiang Tai chuckled. Softly, her face full of kindness. At that moment, she turned to wave at a chubby man in formal attire who was getting out of the car, saying, this. is my youngest son, Xiang Yu. Wang Xiao, it’s an honor to meet you, Xiang Yu sauntered over slowly, a faint smile playing at the corners of his mouth as he nodded slightly in greeting. He looked Wang Chen up and down, although he was quite a bit older, he didn’t dare to underestimate him. Usually, he was used to being arrogant and domineering, having done plenty of bullying in Hong Kong. But that didn’t mean he was a fool, he knew who could be offended and who couldn’t, especially since Xiang Tai had specifically warned him before they left. Wang Chen’s background shocked him, and he didn’t dare to be careless. This was already a much more restrained display from him. Hello, Wang Chen politely extended his hand, wearing a perfectly timed smile. Xiang Yu raised his hand and shook Wang Chen’s, the gold watch on his wrist glinting in the light as he said, we’re about the same age. Since you’re friends with my brother, that makes you my friend too. I’ll call you Wang Chen from now on, if you need anything in Hong Kong, just let me know. Xiang Tai shot Xiang Yu a glare and lightly slapped his arm, pretending to be angry, you brat, be a bit more polite when talking to Wang Chen, don’t be so rude. Then she turned back to Wang Chen with a beaming smile, explaining, Wang Chen, don’t mind him. This child. Just has a big mouth, but he’s not a bad kid at heart. It’s fine, Wang Chen smiled, Xiang Yu is straightforward, which suits me just fine. Among. The crowd of onlookers, some whispered and shared differing opinions. Isn’t that the youngest son of the Xiang family? I heard he used to cause a lot. Of trouble. What’s Wang Chen doing in Hong Kong? It seems like Xiang Tai respects him quite a bit. I heard the Xiang Yu is nothing like his. Brother Xiang Zua. He’s not a good person, always looking for a fight. It’s a pity that the world isn’t about fighting and killing anymore, what I? Shame, isn’t that right? But Xiang Tai really treasures these two sons. Shu, keep your voices down. This is the Xiang family, are you trying to get yourselves killed? What’s there to be afraid of? Can Xiang Yu really beat me up? Hearing this, Wang Chen couldn’t help but chuckle to himself .If it weren’t for his good physical condition and his ears being much more sensitive than the average person’s, he really wouldn’t have been able to hear clearly. These people didn’t dare to speak loudly in front of the parties involved. They could only whisper like crickets. However, they had a bit of understanding about the Xiang family’s status in Hong Kong. The title of Emperor of Kowloon was not just for show. Although the Xiang family, known as the Emperor of Kowloon, had declined somewhat over the years, they were not a family that just anyone could provoke. These fragmented discussions reached everyone’s ears. When Xiang Yu heard them, although he didn’t know exactly what they were saying, he could tell from their gestures that it wasn’t anything good. His expression darkened slightly and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes as he scanned. The crowd, snorting coldly, what are you looking at? Never seen a handsome guy before? His fierce gaze scared a few people who had originally wanted to get closer for a photo, making them step back a few paces. However, a few girls completely ignored him, giggling and moving closer with their phones. Xiang Yu’s expression turned cold and he immediately wanted to lash out. Seeing this, Xiang Zwei quickly stepped forward to mediate, grabbing Xiang Yu’s shoulder, alright, stop showing off here. You should tone it down a bit in front of young master Wang, hurry up and get in the car. Got it, you worry too much, Xiang Yu shrugged off Xiang Zua’s hand, muttering. It was only in recent years that the relationship between Xiang Zua and Xiang Yu had eased a lot, otherwise he really wouldn’t have been able to persuade him. It was a favor to Xiang Zua. Xiang Tai didn’t take it to heart either, pulling Wang Chen towards the car while saying, Wang Chen, I’ve prepared a ton of delicious food for you today, all authentic. Hong Kong delicacies. I personally cooked a few dishes, so you better eat a lot. Thank you, Aunt Xiang, Wang Chan replied with a smile. He glanced at the carefree Xiang Yu beside him but didn’t comment on his behavior. In his view, every class has its way of survival, especially for the Xiang family, which could stir up storms in Hong Kong. Since the Xiang family could thrive in this land, standing strong for so many years was enough to prove that their principles had long been perfectly aligned with the style and rhythm of the city. This place was one of the first to make contact with the West and had a strong recognition of Western values. The law of the jungle, where the weak are preyed upon by the strong, ran rampant. Here, and Confucian morals and the concept of moderation were clearly not as effective as the survival of the fittest. They thrived even more. After getting into the car, Wang Chin sat in the back seat of the Rolls Royce, while the bodyguard, Lung Fong, sat in the Mercedes behind them as arranged by Xiang Zua. Soon, the convoy drove off into the distance. The cars weaved through the winding streets. Outside the car window, the palm trees swayed gently in the breeze, their broad leaves rustling. Wang Chen looked out the window and saw the bustling street where most pedestrians appeared. Hurried yet carried the unique vitality of the city. The architectural styles on both sides of the street varied. There were towering modern skyscrapers as well as old-fashioned arcades. Under the arcades, shops lined up next to each other with a dazzling array of signs and the lively sounds of vendors and conversations intertwining, creating a vibrant atmosphere. It’s new now, it should be a bit livelier, Xiang Tai said, noticing Wang Chen’s interest in the street outside. In the evening, let Xiangzhu take you to Mong Kok for the most authentic snacks. I believe you’ll be satisfied, huh? Wang Chin nodded, his attention caught by a bustling tea restaurant on the street, with a line of people waiting at the entrance. He remarked, tea restaurants in Hong Kong seem particularly popular. Yes, Xiangzhu enthusiastically explained, tea restaurants are a Hong Kong specialty. Items like pineapple buns and Yuanyang milk tea are classic dishes from tea restaurants. You must try them later. The atmosphere of. Life in Hong Kong is very rich, Wang Chen remarked, looking at the lively scene in the market. This is a world-renowned financial city however, it was not like the cold, steel forest found everywhere in the magic city. Instead, it was filled with the essence of life. Yes, Xiang Tai nodded in. Agreement, for example, the Central Market, which used to be a place for buying daily necessities and fresh food, carries countless memories of old. Hong Kong, although it no longer sells vegetables and meat, transforming into a shopping venue that combines dining, shopping, and exhibitions. It still retains many features of the old buildings. If you have time, you can take a stroll there. Wang Chen listened with a smile, occasionally. Chiming in. Before Long, the car drove into Kowloon Tong. Here, luxury homes were everywhere and the Xiang family’s villa was said to be worth over. A billion, a true mansion. Cheng Long’s house was reportedly right across the street. The car stopped in front of a luxurious villa. Wang Chen followed Xiang Tai into the villa. What caught the eye was a neatly trimmed pine tree, next to which was an outdoor swimming pool. Upon entering the Living room, the floor was made of tea, gleaming with a warm luster. In the entrance, there was an ancient celadon vase. On the walls hung paintings. And calligraphy by Zhang Daqian, along with a whole wall of designer handbags, easily numbering in the hundreds. It exuded luxury. Wang Chen paused. In front of a wall covered in gold leaf mosaics, gently reaching out to touch it, his eyes filled with awe. Xian Yu noticed Wang Chen’s interest. In the wall and proudly introduced it. The craftsmanship of this wall was complex, requiring gold with a purity of 99 .99%, hand-hammered by masters, into sheets a hundred thousandth of an inch thick. Coupled with dozens of special processes, it was created through unique designs that adhered to this special texture based on creativity and demand. The gold leaf had a unique metallic luster, showcasing an exclusive sense of luxury and elegance, adding a magnificent feel to the villa’s living room, capable of creating a stunning decorative effect. Wang Chan’s gaze lingered on the gold leaf. Mosaic Wall At that moment, Xiang Tai walked over with a smile, calling out, Wang Chen, come sit over here and have some tea. She led Wang Chen to a carefully arranged Chinese tea table on one side of the living room where exquisite tea sets were already laid out, with a small, delicate purple clay teapot that looked like an antique. Xiang Tai gently picked up the teapot, pouring boiling hot water into the cups to rinse them, her movements. Skilled and elegant, steam rising. The entire action flowed smoothly, rich in ancient charm. Today is quite unfortunate, your uncle Xiang is too. busy with work and is still at the company handling matters. However, he said that no matter how busy he is, he will rush back to meet you, and it should be just a matter of time, Xiang Tai explained with a smile while placing tea guanyan tea leaves into the pot. You are too kind, Uncle Xiang, is busy with his career, and I feel honored that he can spare time to meet me, Wang Chen replied politely with a smile. Xiang Tai continued her actions, and the fragrance of the tea spread throughout the living room as she discarded the first infusion. Then she poured more water into the purple. clay teapot, and this time the tea brewed a golden, translucent color, slowly pouring into the cups, the aroma becoming richer. Here, try this. Authentic Anshi tea guanian and see how it tastes. Xiang Tai handed a teacup to Wang Chan and poured herself a cup, taking a gentle sip. A look of contentment appearing on her face. I love to drink good tea in my daily life. No matter how busy I am, I always make time to enjoy tea. Drinking tea can calm the mind and savor life. As one gets older, one tends to enjoy tea more. Wang Chan took a sip from the teacup, his eyes lighting up. He took another sip. This tea, it tastes extraordinary, different from what I usually drink. What’s different? The taste is still about the same. Xiang Tai poured herself a cup and drank it all in one go. The only difference is the price, if I remember correctly, this tea was bought at an auction. Four hundreds of thousands. Yes, this is the tea I bought last time, it’s very fragrant. If you can’t appreciate it, then don’t drink it. Xiang. Tai looked at her son, who was chewing like a cow on peonies, and felt a pang of heartache. Tea of this quality is rare and hard to come by, even with. Money, one might not be able to buy it. She usually never took it out to drink. And now, it was being wasted like this. Xiang Yu held the teacup. His long fingers gently stroking the cup’s wall, a hint of a smile playing on his chubby face. His small eyes scanned Wang Chen around him. He took a sip of the tea, savoring it carefully, then turned to Xiang Zua with a teasing tone, saying, this tea isn’t meant to quench your thirst. The way you’re drinking it makes it seem like you’re having plain water. No wonder mom looks like she’s in pain. After saying that, he poured himself another full cup. As long as you think it’s good, that’s all that matters. I have plenty more here, so take some back for old master Wang when you leave. Xiang Tai looked at Wang Chen, her face filled with smiles. Given her status, she shouldn’t be treating Wang Chen so formally, after all, he was just a younger generation. Especially since her husband, Xiang Hu Chong, the head of the Xiang family, was on his way back. She was giving Wang Chen a lot of face. As Xiang Tai, she even personally went to the airport to pick him up and brought him back in her car, taking out the Anqi Tiguanian. worth hundreds of thousands per kilogram. No young person in all of Hong Kong could receive such treatment as Wang Chen, even if there were. They would be anxious and fearful, worried about not doing things properly and losing face. This was the Xiang family, which had dominated Hong Kong. For over a hundred years, only in recent years had they slightly restrained themselves and stopped the fighting. But the elders of Hong Kong still remembered how the Xiang family rose to power and few dared to act recklessly in front of them. Yet, in front of Xiang Tai, Wang Chen maintained a Calm demeanor, his expression serene, neither servile nor arrogant, as if Xiang Tai were just an ordinary aunt. Xiang Tai didn’t mind. The resources behind Wang Chen were truly terrifying, most people would think the Wang family was a giant and heavy industry, but only those who reached a certain level would know how high old master Wang’s status was. The power was formidable. If the Xiang family could establish a relationship with the Wang family, they would truly be able to stand firm on the mainland, and the company’s development would no longer face bottlenecks, no longer confined to this. small piece of land in Hong Kong. This was not a fantasy of Xiang Tai. Her son, Xiang Zhuo, and Wang Chen were friends, as long as this relationship continued, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Xiang family. Wang Chen was the only male heir of the Wang family in this generation. No. Need, that’s too much trouble. Wang Chen shook his head, refusing Xiang Tai’s kindness. Xiang Yu gently swayed his teacup, a mischievous glint. In his eyes, don’t decline. Mom rarely needs someone she clicks with. If she really likes you, not even ten oxen could pull her back. Last time, a business tycoon wanted to pay a fortune for this tea, and mom didn’t budge. Xiang Tai shot a reproachful glance at Xiang Yu, then turned back. To Wang Chen with a gentle look, don’t be polite with auntie, just take it as a small gesture from an elder to a younger. Go get those two boxes. Of tea from the storage room and find a nice gift box to pack them in. She turned to instruct the butler. The butler nodded and turned to prepare. Xiangzui casually leaned over, putting his arm around Wang Chen’s shoulder, if you’re going to take it, just take it, it’s not something precious. He then turned to Xiang Tai, grinning, mom, can I also take a couple of cans? You? Xiang Tai shot him a glare, you can stick to regular tea. I can’t bear to see these good teas wasted. Then I’ll thank auntie for her kindness and accept it. Wang Chen smiled and stopped refusing. At that moment, footsteps were heard outside the villa. Soon, an elderly yet refined and handsome man walked in. Although he was older, he still stood tall. His fitted suit hugging his strong physique time has left its marks on his face, yet it does not diminish the sharpness and authority in his gaze. Sorry, company matters took a bit longer than expected. Xiang Huaqiang’s voice was deep and resonant, carrying the weight of someone seasoned. In the world. His eyes swept over the crowd, finally landing on Wang Chen, a hint of warmth flashing in his eyes, so this is Wang Chen, truly a hero. In his youth. Xiang Zhong, I have long admired your reputation, it is a great honor to meet you today. Wang Chen quickly stood up and spoke. Xiang. Huaqiang stepped forward, firmly shaking Wang Chen’s hand. Ha, no need to be formal. You and Xiang Xia are about the same age, you are all friends. Just call me Uncle Xiang. Then I will call you Uncle Xiang, Wang Chen smiled. Good, good, good. This young man is really handsome. Xiang. Huaqiang looked Wang Chen up and down, admiration evident in his eyes. After so many years in the entertainment industry he had never seen such a handsome young man. Wang Chen’s bare face could easily overshadow all the male stars in the industry. He couldn’t believe how captivating Wang Chen. Would look with just a bit of makeup, he would probably charm countless girls. Xianghua Xiang released Wang Chen’s hand but patted his shoulder, scrutinizing him from head to toe. Wang Chen, feeling somewhat puzzled, glanced at his attire, finding nothing wrong. Why was he looking at him like that? Young man, you are so handsome, have you ever thought about entering the entertainment industry to become a star? Xianghua Xiang suddenly raised an eyebrow and smiled. Before Wang Chen could respond, he had already pulled into a leather sofa and sat down. Look at Hong Kong’s film. Industry, many superstars started from scratch. With your looks and my Yongsheng resources, I will definitely package you into the most dazzling star. In the world, Xiang Tai walked over with a freshly brewed cup of tea, playfully chiding, dear, Wang Chen’s ambitions are not in the entertainment. Industry, don’t scare him. However, Xiang Hua Xiang waved his hand, excitement igniting in his eyes as he recalled the thrill of discovering new talent. You don’t understand. After decades of working on set, I can tell at a glance that Wang Chen has the makings of a star. What male star can compare? to his aura and looks. My dad is serious about work but if you really want to enter the industry, you would be Zhou Xingqi’s junior. Back then, Zhou Xingqi and Liu Dehua were both brought to fame by my dad and he put in a lot of effort behind the scenes. If you are truly interested, the company’s team and resources are always open to you, Xiang Yu said with a soft chuckle, speaking slowly. Wang Chen quickly waved his hands. Uncle Xiang, let’s forget about that, I’m not too interested in becoming a star in the entertainment industry. Seeing a hint of difficulty on Wang. Chen’s face, Xiang Tai quickly stepped between them, linking her arm with Xiang Hua Zhang’s, playfully scolding, honey, don’t just talk about work. Wang Chen hasn’t had a proper rest yet. Look at me, I can’t stop once I start talking about work, I even forgot to greet the guests, he turned. To Wang Chen, his eyes filled with apology, sorry, Uncle Xiang got too excited just now. Uncle Xiang, you are too polite, Wang Chen quickly shook, his head with a smile. At that moment, Xiang Tai smiled at Wang Chen and said, alright, alright, let’s stop discussing these boring matters, it’s time to eat. Today, I specially had auntie prepare some Hong Kong specialties, you must try them. Invited by Xiang Tai, Wang Chen entered the dining room. An enticing aroma wafted through the air. The dining table was already filled with a variety of rich dishes. Typhoon shelter fried crab. Braised abalone with runny yolk. Baked lobster with sauce. Honey glazed char shu. Bird’s nest porridge. Xiang Tai pulled Wang Chen to. The main guest seat. She picked up a silver serving chopstick and directly placed her runny yolk abalone into Wang Chen’s bowl. This braised abalone. is made under my supervision, with fish ma, old hen, and genoa ham simmered for an entire night, you must try it. Before he could refuse, Xiang Tai had already added a spoonful of bird’s nest porridge to his bowl, eat it while it’s hot, this porridge has lychee honey flown in, it’s especially nourishing. Mom, you’re so biased. I didn’t get this treatment on my last birthday. Xiang Yu stretched his neck over, staring eagerly at the abalone. In Wang Chen’s bowl, Xiang Zao tapped his hand with her chopsticks, signaling him to pay attention to his manners, while she smiled at Wang Chen. and said, you must try it, my mom has even learned from Michelin restaurants, her dishes are truly exceptional. Wife, your cooking hasn’t declined. In fact, it’s getting better and better, Xiang Hua Xiang said after tasting a piece of abalone, the creamy yolk slowly flowing from the corner of his mouth as he nodded in satisfaction. Wang Chin took a bite of the abalone, the tender and bouncy meat enveloped in rich broth melting on his tongue. It was incredibly fresh. He quickly gave a thumbs up, mumbling in admiration, Xiang Tai, this is so delicious. I’ve never had such flavorful. abalone before. I’m glad you like it. Come often, and I’ll make you different dishes, Xiang Tai said, her eyes crinkling with a smile as she added, a piece of honey-glazed char siu to his bowl. She turned to glare at Xiang Zao, who was still fighting with Xiang Yu over the lobster claws, learn, from how Wang Chen eats, don’t act like a starving wolf. With his mouth full of lobster meat, Xiang Zao mumbled indistinctly, Mom, of course, Wang. Chen is a guest and deserves special treatment, I’m just being self-sufficient as a family member. He didn’t care at all, unlike Xiang Hua Xiang. and Xiang Tai, who were tense around Wang Chen. After all, they were friends and had known each other for quite a while. He understood Wang Chen’s temperament to some extent, he wasn’t like the typical rich second generation who flaunted their superiority. Instead, he was very easy going. Wang Chen wasn’t someone who liked to put on airs, which suited Xiang Yu’s temperament, otherwise, they wouldn’t have become so close after just two meetings. The little chubby Xiang Yu elegantly wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, lifted his wine glass, took a small sip, and teased, in my. Opinion, you don’t treat yourself as family, you treat this place like a food stall. Xiang Huaqiang put down his chopsticks and smiled at Wang Chan. Saying, Wang Chan, there are many delicious foods in Hong Kong. Tomorrow, I’ll have Xiang Zheo take you to Central’s Geoji beef brisket, an old shop that’s been around for decades, I guarantee you’ll never forget the taste. Xiang Tai added another spoonful of bird’s nest porridge to his bowl. Playfully chiding, husband, don’t just talk about outside food, we haven’t showcased our signature dishes yet. Tomorrow for breakfast, I’ll make. You Hong Kong style wonton noodles, so you can taste something fresh. She turned to her two sons, if you two dare to sleep in and miss breakfast. Tomorrow, don’t be jealous of Wang Chen. Mom, I will definitely get up earlier than the rooster tomorrow. Xiang Xiao immediately put down the lobster claw and raised both hands in promise. He turned to hug Wang Chen’s shoulder, in the afternoon, I’ll take you to Mong Ko, I’ll make sure you taste the most authentic delicacies in Hong Kong. Okay. Wang Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit excited. Hong Kong’s food is quite famous, but. He had never been there. This time he had the opportunity and he couldn’t miss it. The meal lasted nearly two hours before it finally ended. Wang Chen felt particularly satisfied. Under Xiang Zhao’s lead, they went to visit Chang Long across the villa but unfortunately, he wasn’t home, a phone. Cole revealed he was out filming. He wouldn’t be back for a while. Wang Chen felt a bit regretful. He had specifically asked Xiang Zhao to take him there. After learning that Chang Long lived across the street, Chang Shu was his favorite star since childhood. He had watched all the movies Chang Long. had made. He could only hope to see him next time. No worries. When brother Chang Long finishes work and comes back, I’ll immediately organize a gathering and invite him over. Xiang Xiao was not surprised. Chang Long often worked outside, either doing events or filming, and was rarely home. It was hard to see him even once a year. A bit disappointed, Wang Chen and Xiang Xiao returned to the villa to rest. Xiang Hua Xiang had to leave for work. After chatting with Wang Chen for a bit, Xiang Yu also found an excuse to leave. Xiang Tai, in her conversation with him, seemed to have disappeared. Somewhere. Not long after, Xiang Zheo’s sister, Xiang Junling, returned to the villa, she is the daughter of Xiang Huachan’s first wife, and Xiang. Tai treats her especially well, as if she were his own daughter. Xiang Junling is several years older than Xiang Zhe. Now she is already 40. Although she has gained some weight, she still looks quite cute and charming. She is dignified and graceful, a true career-oriented woman. She was. Not surprised by Wang Chen’s arrival, she was curious about what the legendary contemporary heir of the Wang family looked like and this trip home was to witness it for herself. Xiang Junling runs her own jewelry business and is also the founder of a well-known law firm. Of course, she has also dabbled in her family’s traditional business. This success could not have been achieved without the support of the Xiang family. However, she can be considered one of the capable women Wang Chen knows with her own career. After returning to the villa and getting to know Wang Chen, she greatly admires this exceptionally handsome young man who is still studying and has already started his own business at such a young age. Jing Tuon Capital has now become a major player in the mainland entertainment industry. Aside from the Wang family’s support, his personal abilities cannot be underestimated. Otherwise, the family wouldn’t trust him to start his own career so early. The current success of Jing Tuon Capital is proof of that. The two exchanged a few light words and Xiang Junling increasingly admired Wang Chen, her eyes filled with appreciation. This young boy is simply too perfect. With such a family background and being so handsome, he shows no arrogance in his demeanor, but rather is very humble. He lacks the bad habits. Typical of rich second-generation kids. Her younger brother, Xiang Yu, has been spoiled by their mother since childhood, arrogant and overbearing. And she has always looked down on such people. Therefore, she holds Wang Chen in high regard. Originally, she had set her work aside temporarily. To come home and meet Wang Chen, planning to return to work afterward. Now, she suddenly doesn’t want to go back. Wang Chen’s handsome face is truly. Captivating, staying a little longer lifts her spirits. Xiangzhuo looked at his sister in surprise, how could she, who usually dislikes men, be so interested in chatting with Wang Chen for so long? It seems that even women who detest men cannot help but be drawn to Wang Chen. His looks are simply extraordinary. Unfortunately, the age gap between his sister and Wang Chen is too great, otherwise, he would really want to play matchmaker. Staying single isn’t a solution. In the evening, as dusk deepened and neon lights flickered, Xiangzhuo and Xiangjunling took Wang Chen out to eat. A row of bodyguards followed behind, making quite an impression. The streets of Mong Kok were bustling with people, the local flavors wrapped around various tempting snacks, and Wang Chen was left with grease on his lips from the food. The sea breeze in Sim Sha Sui carried the scent of seafood, while the dazzling lights of the skyscrapers on the opposite side of the harbor reflected on the shimmering sea surface. After taking a stroll around Central, Wang Chen truly understood the most authentic side of Hong Kong. It was a worthwhile trip that opened his eyes. After eating and drinking. To their fill, at Xiangzhuo’s suggestion, the three of them took the driver’s car to Hong Kong’s most exciting place, the Hong Kong Jockey Club, the Happy Valley Racecourse. This is the place with the greatest wealth disparity in Hong Kong and also the place where ordinary people are most likely to encounter the rich. Many big stars and tycoons, such as Guo Fuching and Peng Yuyan, come here to race and bet on horses. Many wealthy people in Hong Kong own their own horses, which not only symbolizes wealth but is also a popular and effective socializing method in Hong Kong society. Additionally, many people from around the world come here to travel every year. The Hong Kong Jockey Club is one of the must-visit tourist spots. The thrilling horse races, combined with a little betting on a horse they like, create an overwhelming sense of excitement and immersion. However, some people cannot control their hands and bet recklessly. There are not a few who have gone bankrupt because of horse racing. Many legendary stories have occurred here. A good horse that performs well can become a champion, allowing the owner to earn hundreds of millions. Some people have also won. Astronomical figures, like 118 million Hong Kong dollars, with a single bet. Every day here, countless tales of sudden wealth are created, some step. Into the ranks of the rich overnight, while others lose everything and become the subject of ridicule. The Happy Valley racecourse can accommodate. Over 50,000 spectators. The first floor seats are where ordinary people watch the races, and mainland compatriots with passes can enter for. Free, without needing to buy tickets. With Xiang Zhao and Xiang Junling present, it was clear that they didn’t need to buy tickets. The three were. respectfully led by the manager of the racecourse to a VIP box located on the top floor. Manager Lee bent down to push open the intricately carved wooden door, and a wave of luxury hit them. Wang Chen looked up to see a massive LCD screen television in front of him, outside the panoramic floor to ceiling. Windows, the green racetrack came into view, but it was still early, and the venue was empty. The audience seats below were already packed. The lights were dazzling. People from various countries were present, with different skin tones, most were here as tourists, specifically to see the. World-famous horse races, various performances had already begun on-site and even a world-renowned band had been invited. Party food and beer were in abundance. Mr. Xiang, Miss Xiang, thank you for your support of the racecourse. This box has the best view, and knowing you were coming, we specially reserved it for you, manager Li said after seeing Xiang Zhao and the others sit down, as he introduced the space, the waitstaff behind him brought in champagne and various snacks and fruits. He carefully observed the young, handsome man beside Xiang Zhao as the manager of the happy. he had a certain understanding of the wealthy second generation from Hong Kong and the mainland. However, this man before him was clearly not someone he recognized. The respect that Xiang Zhao and Xiang Junling unconsciously showed him was somewhat unusual, leaving manager Li puzzled. The Xiang family was undoubtedly a prominent family in Hong Kong, what kind of background did a man who could earn their respect have? Nevertheless, he knew that serving Wang Chen well was undoubtedly a wise choice. With that thought, manager Li’s gaze towards Wang Chen grew increasingly respectful. How is tonight’s event? Xiang Zhao casually leaned against the viewing platform and asked. You’ve come at the right time, tonight. Is the golden event featuring eight champion horses competing together? I believe you won’t be disappointed, Manager Li said, slightly bowing as he. Handed over the event brochure, a smile plastered on his face. Xiang Junling ran her fingers over the champagne glass, her gaze sweeping over the. Event brochure handed by Manager Li, I heard that Emerald Lightning hasn’t been in good form lately and the odds have dropped? Miss Xiang is. Well informed. It’s said that Emerald Lightning has been a bit under the weather recently, but it has received active treatment and the owner has spent a fortune hiring the top trainer. They were even practicing extra yesterday, Manager Li replied with a smile. Wang Chen looked at the event brochure. In his hand, flipping through it with interest, he had long heard of the racecourse. It indeed looked impressive. The atmosphere on site was particularly vibrant, with a restless energy in the air. After understanding the details in the brochure, Wang Chen turned to Manager Li and asked, Can I place a bet now? Sir, you may not know, but typically, the horses will come to the track for a lap to show their condition, so you might want to wait a bit before placing your bet, manager Li said respectfully. Xiang Zhao looked at the introduction of the horses on the screen, pointed to a white horse, and said to Wang Chen, you absolutely must not bet on Emerald Lightning tonight, otherwise, it will definitely be a loss. Oh, you know a lot about this? Wang Chen asked curiously. Xiang Zhao shook her head and replied, not really, but my father and brother usually play a lot, and we have a few racehorses at home. I’ve just been influenced by them since I was little. He paused, his gaze landing on the profile page of the emerald lightning on the screen, and said to the training data, you see, its performance in the last three races hasn’t been great, clearly, its physical condition isn’t good, so we definitely need to avoid it. Then he turned to Xiang Ju Ling and asked, sister, you do like betting on horses, right? Am I analyzing this correctly? Xiang Ju Ling gently swirled her champagne glass, watching the lively scene outside. She glanced at her brother. A faint smile playing at the corners of her lips, your analysis is quite on point, but there are many variables in horse racing, who knows, it might. Just be the one to win tonight? She pointed at a pure black horse on the screen and said, I have a good feeling about this win phantom, it’s recent. Performance has been stable, betting on it is definitely not a loss. Managerly smiled at this, then I’ll take my leave, if you need anything, just call for me. Xiang nodded and took a sip of her champagne. Wang Chen looked at the horse racing introductions on the screen, his eyes shining. There were a total of eight races tonight. Dozens of horses were participating. The eight first-class champion racehorses were Flame Chaser, Wind Phantom, The Monarch, Emerald Lightning, Flying Wing, Crimson War Steed, Endless Wind, and Dawnbreaker. Each horse exuded a spirited aura, their mainies meticulously groomed, flowing back in an orderly manner, every strand dancing freely. Their muscular lines were distinct, rising and falling with each breath, showcasing the beauty of strength. They embodied the essence of champions. At that moment, a sudden cheer erupted from outside, and the crowd screamed with excitement. Wang Chen couldn’t help but look outside. As the wave of cheers rolled in, the distant gate slowly rose. Staff members led the racehorses onto the track. In an instant, the audience erupted in excitement, and a chestnut horse in front became startled, refusing to move forward despite the staff’s efforts to pull it. A few young people nearby let out strange cries, causing the chestnut horse to rear up, making the staff stumble back a couple of steps, which drew a burst of laughter from the stands. Just then, a commotion suddenly broke. Out at the entrance, instantly capturing everyone’s attention. It’s Guo Fuching and his wife. So handsome. Ah, it’s really King Guo. He looks. A hundred times better in person than on TV. Even at this age, he’s still so handsome. His wife is super beautiful too. Her aura is simply stunning. No wonder she’s the king’s wife. I heard King Guo raises horses for racing himself. Is he here to place bets? Let’s see which horse he buys. Following the king’s choice is sure to be right. Wow, his wife’s bag must be a limited edition. How much do you think this outfit costs? Some young girls squealed with excitement. The crowd gathered around, pulling out their phones to take pictures of Guo Fuching and his wife Feng. Yuan. Guo Fuching smiled and waved to the surrounding fans, exuding star quality with every gesture. Feng Yuan elegantly linked her arm with her husband, a charming smile on her face. Security personnel quickly surrounded them, forming a barrier to prevent overly enthusiastic fans from getting too close, ensuring safety. Mr. Guo, Mrs. Guo, this way please. Manager Li appeared at the entrance, his face beaming with a flattering smile, respectfully guiding the couple toward the VIP area. As they passed the stands, many spectators stood on tiptoe, stretching their necks to catch a glimpse, instantly elevating the atmosphere to a new high. Wang Chen also noticed Guo Fuching’s arrival and turned to look. Even from a distance, Wang Chen’s vision was far superior to that of an average person, and he could see Guo’s features clearly. This place truly was the easiest in Hong Kong. To spot the wealthy and celebrities he had just arrived and already encountered Guo Fuching. Guo Fuching, nearing 60, still looked remarkably young. Standing next to his wife, they were a particularly well-matched couple. It’s King Guo and his wife. I run into him at almost every race. He really enjoys horse racing. Let me give him a call and have him come over, Xiang Zhao said. Following Wang Chen’s gaze, he took out his phone and dialed a number, which was answered almost immediately. Soon, Guo Fuching’s hearty laughter came through the phone. Xiang Zhao, what a surprise to receive. Your call today. I’m in the VIP box at the racetrack. Brought a friend along to have some fun, Xiang Zhao replied with a raised eyebrow and a smile. We’ve got some fine wine in the box, would you like to come and join us? You have a friend there? I’ll be right over. Guo Fucheng laughed. Loudly. After hanging up, it wasn’t long before there was a knock at the door of the box. Guo Fucheng entered, holding his wife’s hand. He was dressed. In a well -tailored suit, his shoes polished to a shine, exuding the charm of a star in every gesture. It’s been a while. Who is this? Guo Fucheng. glanced at Xiang Zhao, then turned to Wang Chen, a hint of astonishment flashing in his eyes. His wife Fang Yuan, was also curiously staring at Wang. Chen, who is this young master? He looks really handsome, and his outfit is clearly not that of an ordinary person. You see, in the VIP area of the racetrack, inappropriate attire is not allowed, even if someone shows up, they will be asked to change. The Hong Kong Jockey Club has always been a social venue for the upper class, frequented by people of status, with strict dress codes for members and VIPs. There was a time when her husband forgot to wear formal attire and was asked to go home and change. Although Xiang Zhao’s disheveled outfit could be overlooked since he is from the Xiang family, his status and background speak for themselves. Even the owner of the racetrack wouldn’t dare to impose too many demands on him. Only those truly from wealthy families can dress casually here, these people have privileges. However, Wang Chen’s attire was extremely casual. He was dressed in leisure wear but the Vacheron Constantine watch on his wrist was quite expensive. All of this only suggested that Wang Chen’s background was not simple. Now, being with the Xiang siblings, could he be some young master from the mainland? Brother Guo, this is my friend Wang Chen, he’s not an ordinary person, Xiang Zhao said, standing up and cheerfully introducing Wang Chen. This is Guo Fucheng, King Guo, I believe you know him. Just call him Brother Guo. Hello, Brother Guo, I’m Wang Chen. I didn’t expect to see you here today, it’s an honor. Wang Chen quickly stood up and greeted him with a smile. This man is one of the four heavenly kings. In the mainland, he is a well-known figure, a superstar known to all ages, and was incredibly popular 20 years ago. In his previous life, his father, Wang Jianguo, was obsessed with these Hong Kong stars, just like any ordinary middle-aged man, Hua Fuching and Zhou Ruanfa were his idols. I wonder if things have changed in this life. Looking at Wang Jianguo’s pretentious demeanor now, he probably doesn’t have that kind of admiration for these stars anymore. I can ask him about it next time I go home. Xiao’s friends are my friends. Just follow him and call me Brother Gua, haha, Guo Fuching said with a warm smile, extending his hand to shake. Wang Chen’s, his tone friendly. He pondered over Xiang Zhao’s words. If even he said it’s different, which noble family’s young master is this? His. Wife beside him smiled gently and nodded gracefully, I’m his wife, Fang Yuan. It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’ve heard that Brother Gua has a deep. Passion for horse racing, never missing a single event at the racetrack. Seeing you today, it truly lives up to the reputation. Since we’ve met. Let’s all enjoy it together, it will be more lively, Xiang Zhuling said, putting down her champagne glass, her eyes sparkling with a smile. Brother. Gua, which horse are you betting on today? Why not give us a hint? Sure, let’s do it together, the view from your box is quite good. Gua Fucheng. Laughed heartily and casually pulled over a genuine leather chair to sit down. The little sister of the Xiang family is trying to get me to spill. The beans. But to be honest, I think the Qiyan War Steed is in great form today. As he spoke, he pointed to the blood red horse in the center of. The racetrack. Look at its proud posture, its steady and powerful strides, and its bright, determined eyes. This horse is definitely a favorite. To win the championship. When it came to horse racing, Hua Fuching’s eyes lit up with enthusiasm. He had a special love for horse racing, ever since. Reaching middle age, aside from company matters, racing had become his everything. He was well-versed in how to train and care for horses. Every year, he would spend money to hire top trainers to train the horses he owned and to learn horse training techniques. His love for horses ran deep. Of course. He was also skilled at betting on races, only by understanding and being familiar with horse racing could one become a consistent winner here. Otherwise, losing a few million in a single night was quite normal. Hua Fuching carefully observed the mental states of the various racehorses, then, looked at the crowd and smiled, just watching isn’t fun, how about we place a bet? A little gambling adds to the excitement. At that moment, a. waiter timely presented a tablet, which displayed their company’s betting platform. Hua Fuching took the tablet and looked at the horses available. For betting in the first race, his gaze gradually settling on a blood-red racehorse. After confirming, he clicked to place his bet for this first race, I bet on the Qiyan War Steed to win outright 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. After placing his bet, Wu Fucheng set down the tablet, and casually glanced at Wang Chen. This young man, exuding an air of nobility, was likely to bet on a different horse. Xiang Xia looked at the information available on the tablet, rubbed his chin with his right hand, and carefully examined the horses strolling on the racetrack. His gaze finally. landed on a silver horse. The dazzling lights of the venue shone on its muscular back, radiating a silvery glow, resembling a steed from the moon. Goddess. This horse is really damn handsome, I’m betting on this one. Without hesitation, Xiangja placed a bet of 500,000 Hong Kong dollars after reviewing the horse’s information. His betting was decisive. However, to be safe, he only bet on it finishing in the top three, with odds of 6-1. As long as this horse finished in the top three, he would make a profit. This horse’s lineage is said to come from the royal. stud farm in England. Although it has never won a grade 1 race, its neatly trimmed mane shows that it has been well cared for. Moreover, its muscular lines are like a taut bowstring, and its eyes are filled with eagerness, showing no fear from the cheers of the audience. This is truly a born champion. Xiang Zhuling swirled her champagne glass, glanced at the horse, and said lightly, oh, Miss Xiang seems to know a lot about horse racing. Guo Fuching was somewhat surprised. He wasn’t too familiar with Xiang Zhuling, he was quite close with Xiang Xia, after all, having been. an employee under Xiang Huachan’s company in earlier years. However, he wasn’t very familiar with the Xiang Junling from the Xiang family. Their encounters were few and far between. So, he was a bit astonished by Xiang Junling’s knowledge of horse racing as it wasn’t typically a sport favored by women. Hearing this, Xiang Zha shrugged and said, Brother Guo, you might not know, but my sister has done some research on horse racing. Since she has her eye on this horse, I’m bound to win. Wang Chen nodded and smiled, so, is Junling also planning to bet on this horse? No, Xiang Junling. Shook her head, pointing at the Qiyan war steed. This is a grade 1 champion, and brother Guo has extensive experience in the racing field. His understanding of horses is not something I can compare to. Of course, I’m betting on the Crimson Flame warhorse. Although the odds are only 1. To 3, it’s a safe bet. Xiang Junling said playfully, picking up her tablet and placing a 200,000 bet on a win. She had her own. Analysis regarding horse racing but it wasn’t to the point of showing off in front of Guo Fuching following his lead in betting was the best choice. Wang Chen was slightly taken aback, a bit surprised. Xiang Junling’s previous analysis of this horse was quite thorough, yet she still chose to bet on the Crimson Flame warhorse, which clearly caught him off guard. Wang Chen thought she was quite knowledgeable about horse racing. Guo Fuching was somewhat surprised as well, then a glimmer of appreciation flashed in his eyes. He took a sip from his glass and said, wise choice. You’re in sight. is truly sharp, this race will definitely see the crimson flame warhorse come in first. Wait, sis, what’s going on? You were so confident earlier. And now you turn around and bet on another horse. Xiang Jia opened her eyes wide, disbelief written all over her face as she lamented, just, wait and see, I might end up slapping your faces, maybe the horse I picked is the dark horse. Xiang Junling ignored Xiang Jia’s antics, elegantly turning to Wang Chen and asking, Wang Chen, which horse are you planning to bet on? Do you have a target? Wang Chen looked at the horses on the track. activating his true sight, his gaze scanning the racetrack, ultimately landing on the Crimson Flame Warhorse. Instantly, a virtual panel appeared. Before Wang Chen, name, Crimson Flame Warhorse Age, 9 years bloodline, thoroughbred strength, 89 stamina, 82 Wang Chen was somewhat surprised. This horse, claimed to be a first-class race champion, seemed off. The data didn’t look too good. System, what is the maximum value for this horse’s? Data? Ding. After reasonable calculations by the system, the maximum value for the horse’s various attributes is 100 points, the same. As for humans, for the host’s convenience. Wang Chen immediately understood, the Crimson Flame warhorse clearly had physical issues, otherwise, the values couldn’t be this low. He frowned and looked at the others, asking, what is the typical lifespan of this horse? Generally, racehorses can live to be 20 to 30 years old, but, Xiang Zhuling pondered for a moment before saying, however, a horse’s physical condition is usually at. Its peak between the ages of 5 and 10. After this period, various data will gradually decline. Many racehorses retire and can no longer compete. Around the ages of 10 to 15 because, as they age, their physical functions gradually decline, the risk of injury increases, and their competitive abilities are not what they used to be. This isn’t just aging. With such low data across the board, it can only be said that there are unknown diseases affecting this crimson flame warhorse, which clearly cannot be bet on. Wang Chen then shifted his gaze to the horse Xiang Xia was betting on. Name, Moon Chaser age, 6 years bloodline, thoroughbred strength, 91 stamina, 88 Wang Chen’s eyes lit up at this, the data for this silver white. Moon Chaser was quite good. It was already the best in this race. Xiang Xia was quite lucky, just a casual bet and she hit the jackpot. He no. Longer hesitated and turned to the waitress beside him, asking, can I place a bet using Hua Xia currency? The waitress, standing nearby, looked. a bit troubled and said hello sir our horse racing club generally only accepts hong kong dollars for betting we do not accept other currencies go ask your manager this is a distinguished guest from the xiang family he knows what to do xiang zha interjected he didn’t want to put the girl in a difficult position it wasn’t her decision to make the rules of the horse racing club had always been this way only hong kong dollars could be used for settlement betting with other currencies was not accepted however these rules were merely constraints set for the poor for the Rich, these tedious matters are nothing but a facade, rules are meant to be broken. All right, Mr. Xiang. The waitress gave Xiang Xia a grateful look, nodded, and turned to leave. Before long, manager Li walked in. I’m sorry, it’s my fault for not explaining things properly, manager. Li said with a smile on his face, slightly bowing as he continued, since Mr. Wang is a distinguished guest of the Xiang family, he is naturally a VIP of our horse racing event. I have already applied for permission, and you can directly use Hua Xia coins to place your bets. Wang Chen nodded. Not surprised by this outcome. With Xiangzha’s connections, it saved him a lot of trouble, eliminating the need to exchange currencies back and forth. He picked up the tablet, his fingers swiftly gliding across the screen, and without hesitation, he placed a 1 million Huashia coin bet on Chasing Moon. Moreover, it was a win-only bet. The odds for betting on Chasing Moon to win were 12 to 1, if Chasing Moon finished in first place, he would net 12 million. And it was a sure win. Wang Chen had carefully reviewed the data on these racehorses and selected the best one. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 1 million and a double cashback of 2 million is granted.Ding. Congratulations to the host for earning. 100 system points.Wow, Wang Chan, you’ve got some guts. Xiangzha leaned over and saw his betting amount, his eyes instantly widening, as he patted Wang Chan’s shoulder and laughed, betting on the same horse as me, good eye. No wonder you’re my good brother. I also have high hopes for. This horse, Wang Chan replied with a faint smile. With the eye of truth, betting on horses was practically effortless for him. The odds for these. Races were so high, none were below 2 to 1, it was like filling a bag with money. This efficiency was even better than his double cashback perk. This was fantastic. Unfortunately, for him now, small money didn’t interest him, and big money was hard to bet on. If he were to place a bet of 10. Billion Huasha coins, if he won, according to the odds, that would be over 100 billion. The horse racing event might not be able to continue. The risk of a funding chain break was sharply rising. one should leave a way out there was no need to go to extremes and he had no grievances with the horse racing event hua fuching frowned slightly his gaze shifting back and forth between chasing moon and the crimson flame warhorse his expressions somewhat complex as an experienced horse racing expert he had been betting at the racetrack for years and he instinctively felt that this horse which had never performed well in major competitions was not a good choice yet he hesitated to directly contradict wang chen he was afraid of embarrassing him However, after thinking it over, he still spoke up to remind him, it’s good for young people to be daring and competitive. But the strength of the Crimson Flame warhorse is evident. As a horse that has won a first level championship, its chances of winning in this race are quite high. If you don’t. Gua Fucheng’s words were cut off by Xiang Junling. Brother Gua, there are many variables in the race. Since Wang Chen has bet on chasing Moon, he clearly has some confidence. Who knows, maybe this time Xiang Zha and Wang Chen will get lucky. Xiang Junling. said nonchalantly, looking at the lively scene below. Of course, my luck has always been good, chasing moon won’t let us down, Xiang Xia said. Confidently filled with faith in this handsome horse. Historically, there have been times when champion horses made mistakes, in fact, such occurrences were quite common. Because the conditions on the racetrack can change dramatically. Perhaps the noise outside was too loud, or maybe they didn’t sleep well last night or were dissatisfied with the morning feed, leading to an upset stomach. A simple bad mood could also be a factor. Various. situations could arise a horse’s physical or mental condition can greatly impact its performance in the race at this moment a dark horse might emerge seizing a championship that shouldn’t belong to it the sound of the broadcast came from the television in front of him reminding the audience that there were 10 minutes left for the preparations before the race the racehorses that were originally on the field were also led back by the staff the atmosphere at the venue instantly quieted down people hurried to their seats directing their attention to the racehorses that were being prepared Wang Chen watched the figure of chasing moon. Observing its agile form, head held high, neighing, and digging its front hooves into the ground, he felt increasingly certain. With such fighting spirit, combined with physical prowess, there was no way he could lose this race. Mr. Wang. Use this to see more clearly. If you need anything, just let me know. Manager Li respectfully handed over a special viewing telescope, smiling. Apologetically. He then whispered a few instructions to the staff before turning to leave. Wang Chen looked at the telescope in his hand and casually. Set it aside. As time ticked away, the entire racetrack was enveloped in an increasingly intense atmosphere of tension. The performances downstairs had also concluded, making it particularly quiet. Some spectators close to the racetrack could hardly contain their excitement, standing up and fixating their gazes on the track ahead. The staff were also making the final preparations before the race, diligently checking all matters. At this moment, the participating racehorses, under the control of professional riders, returned to the starting gate to prepare. The horses were tense there. Muscles taut, and their hooves constantly digging into the ground, emitting a series of nays. There were a total of 14 racehorses in this. Competition, all well-fed and robust. The most eye-catching among them was the Crimson Flamewar Steed. It had the most bets placed on it. The Crimson. Flamewar Steed exuded a champion’s pride, its gaze scanning around, revealing an aura of invincibility filled with confidence as it looked at the track ahead. Its head held high, eyes bright and spirited, its fiery red mane shimmered under the lights, glistening like blood. It impatiently trotted. In place, its ears occasionally flicking, eager for the upcoming race. Take your positions, a staff member shouted, the voice echoing across. The vast racetrack. The riders instantly straightened their backs, firmly gripping the reins, their legs clamping around the horse’s belly, achieving a tacit cooperation with their mounts. The entire venue fell silent, everyone holding their breath as if time had frozen, anticipating the races. Arrival. Bang. Hiss hiss hiss. Suddenly, all the gates lifted, and a thunderous roar erupted in the racetrack. In an instant, thud thud thud. Thud thud, the sound of hooves came rushing in. The fourteen racehorses shot out from the starting line like arrows released from a bow. The sound of hooves was dense like raindrops, akin to the rapid beating of war drums, shaking the ground slightly. The audience was momentarily stunned, then erupted into a deafening cheer, the waves of sound crashing one after another, as if they were about to overturn the racetrack. Those who had not experienced at life could not fathom this heart-stirring sensation. The sound of hooves, combined with the neighing of the racehorses, was simply irresistible, igniting a surge of bloodlust. One couldn’t help but feel an impulse to charge into battle and achieve glory. The Sons of Hua Xia had fought across the world for thousands of years, their blood never fading. This fervor was like a genetic code etched in their veins, unique to the Sons of Hua Xia. Wang Chen, who had been sitting casually found his back straightening at some point. His expression turned serious. For thousands of years, Hua Xia had never feared the battlefield. The sounds of clashing weapons and neighing horses had been replaced by modern planes and cannons. Yet, This fervor was deeply engraved in their blood. Watching the racehorses thunderously galloping across the track, the riders’ agile forms resembled. Generals charging into battle, becoming one with their steeds. The thunderous sound of hooves resonated in his ears. This shudder from deep within, made the hairs on Wang Chan’s arms stand on end. It was truly shocking. Wang Chan finally understood why Hong Kong, as a place with such economic prosperity, had a deep affection for horse racing. It was indeed too exhilarating. Wang Chen was filled with excitement.On the side, Wu Fuching and Xiang Zhao had already started cheering loudly, rallying for the racehorses they had bet on. Watching the galloping horses in front of him, Wang Chen shifted his gaze to Chasing Moon. At that moment, Chasing Moon resembled a silver lightning bolt, racing down the track, each leaped seemingly capable of breaking the air, creating a whooshing sound. Chasing Moon’s silvery mane danced wildly in the wind, occasionally letting out a whinny, clearly displaying a strong desire for victory. Meanwhile, the Crimson Flame Warhorse, relying on its rich racing experience and exceptional strength, surged. Ahead, leaving the other horses far behind. Its fiery red coat was even more striking, like a blazing flame burning fiercely on the racetrack. Each strike kicked up clouds of dust, showcasing the champion’s aura, which was beyond mere handsomeness. The audience in the stands erupted with frenzied shouts of support for it. Crimson Flame Warhorse, go! Hold on for my money, the championship belongs to you. No wonder it’s a champion. Racehorse, its momentum is unmatched. It’s a sure win, brother. The odds for Crimson Flame Warhorse are a bit low, but it’s a guaranteed profit. The chorus of cheers instantly engulfed the entire racetrack. The audience in the front row of the first floor stands waved their glow sticks. Excitedly, with some even tossing their hats and clothes into the air. Some female spectators appeared particularly excited, making the scene especially vibrant. In one corner of the stands, a piercing whistle suddenly rang out as several young people in matching outfits held up a banner featuring the image of the Crimson Flame Warhorse. Crimson Lightning, Invincible. Crimson Lightning, Invincible. These were relatively normal fans, but some, who had placed heavy bets were much more anxious. A few scruffy-looking uncles, their expressions animated in veins bulging on their foreheads, shouted loudly, Charge! Charge! Charge! This is it, life or death depends on this race. Clearly, these were professional gamblers, and they had bet. Heavily, hoping for a turnaround. The atmosphere in the entire racetrack was ignited by the boiling emotions, and even the ground seemed to tremble. Under the thunderous shouts. Not to mention the people, the air was filled with piercing screams. Wang Chen was relatively unaffected in the VIP box. Just as the entire venue was almost unanimously cheering for the Crimson Flame warhorse, Wang Chen’s gaze was firmly locked onto a silver figure. They had now reached the first turn, with the jockey leaning closely against the horse’s back, legs tightly gripping its belly, the synergy between horse and rider seamless. The distance that had originally been behind was visibly closing, its nostrils flaring as it exhaled hot air with each breath. The speed was so fast that it left after images. Look! Chasing Moon is accelerating! Xiang Zhao exclaimed excitedly, Sister! Brother! Gua! What did I say? Chasing Moon is making a comeback, it’s now in sixth place, who knows, it might really take first. The previously excited atmosphere in the box instantly quieted down. Interesting, Chasing Moon’s speed through the turn is actually faster than the Crimson Flame Warhorse. Xiang Junling remarked, setting down her champagne glass, somewhat surprised. She had previously mentioned that she was optimistic about Wang Chen betting on this horse but she had only said it casually, not truly believing that Chasing Wind would perform well. Given Chasing Wind’s current state, there was still a chance for a top three finish. Guo Fuching was also somewhat surprised, frowning as he said, I really misjudged this, this horse is in good form. His wife, Mrs. Guo, cast a surprised glance at Wang Chen. While Xiang Zhao and the others were focused on the race, they hadn’t noticed Wang Chen’s expression. However, Mrs. Guo did notice Wang Chen’s demeanor, which was calm and unperturbed regarding Chasing Moon’s performance, showing no signs of fluctuation on his face. Why was he so confident? At this moment, Chasing Moon’s condition was getting better and better. The horse’s legs were running at full speed, kicking up dust from the ground, forming a long trail of smoke behind it, and the hot air it exhaled. Became increasingly intense, resembling two puffs of white smoke. Gradually, it overtook the racehorse in front of it. The originally leading Crimson. Flame War Horse seemed to sense the immense pressure from behind, its ears flattened slightly, and its previously relaxed muscles tensed up in an instant as it accelerated, trying to create distance from chasing moon. The whip in the rider’s hand struck fiercely against its body, causing the Crimson Flame War Horse to run even faster. At this moment, the atmosphere at the racetrack seemed ready to blow the roof off, with the audience’s emotions reaching a peak. The spectators, who had been confident in the Crimson Flame War Horse’s first place, now wore expressions filled with tension. They clenched their fists, shouting hoarsely the name of the Crimson Flame Warhorse, cheering it on. Meanwhile, a small portion of the audience who had bet on Chasing Moon were flushed with excitement as if they had taken hormones. The stands erupted with noise. Various accents rose and fell. Chasing Moon, go for it. Overtake it. Crimson Flame Warhorse, hold on. You’re the champion. You can’t lose to him. Hurry up, I’ve bet everything. I have on you. Come on, Crimson Flame. I’m counting on you. Champion. Champion. Don’t let me down. At this time, in the owner’s box, the atmosphere was equally tense. The owner of the Crimson Flame Warhorse was a middle-aged man in a suit, tightly clenching his fists, his fingers turning slightly white from the pressure. The smile that had been on his face had long disappeared, replaced by a furrowed brow and rapid, breathing, faster, go faster, he roared towards the racetrack. He wished he could be on the track himself. The owner of Chasing Moon was a slightly younger man, leaning forward against the glass, gripping the railing tightly, his expression tense. When he saw Chasing Moon overtake another horse, he suddenly turned and hugged his assistant, incoherently repeating, We’re going to win. We’re really going to win. The assistant was equally excited. His face flushed. Chasing Moon shot through the air like a silver arrow, its hooves alternating at a speed that almost caused the audience to see double. As its head gradually approached the Crimson Flame Warhorse, the entire racetrack erupted. The rider of the Crimson Flame Warhorse suddenly lashed out with the long whip, causing the horse to whinny in pain and pick up speed. Under the rider’s control, Chasing Moon suddenly surged. Forward, its silver body pressing closely against the right side of the Crimson Flame Warhorse, running neck and neck with it. In the final five hundred meters, time seemed to stretch infinitely. The Crimson Flame Warhorse, as a seasoned champion, displayed incredible resilience, but it was still gradually overtaken by Chasing Moon. The burning determination in Chasing Moon’s eyes was almost frenzied. The rider suddenly loosened the reins, wrapping his arms tightly around the horse’s neck for the final sprint. The entire venue held its breath. Then, a wave of enthusiastic cheers erupted. Chasing Moon crossed the finish line with a lead of more than a horse’s length claiming first place. Inside and outside the racetrack, some knelt down in tears while others embraced each other in excitement. Damn it, why didn’t I bet more? This has a 12-fold payout. Aha, I bet. 300,000. I’ve never made this much money in my life. Didn’t you say it was a sure win? I mortgaged my house. How could the Crimson Flame Warhorse be so weak? A few gamblers who had bet on Chasing Moon were already in a huddle, one of them excitedly throwing his phone. Into the air, shouting, Bro, tonight we’re going to the best bar in Hong Kong, it’s on me. I’m spent, I can’t take it anymore, it’s too thrilling. At this moment, in the VIP box where Wang Chen was, Xiangzhu jumped up from the sofa upon seeing Chasing Moon win the championship, I told you. Chasing Moon was the dark horse. Did you see that, sis? Ah, I’m really amazing. Smiley face, he suddenly hugged Wang Chen, shaking his shoulders. Vigorously, betting with me is a good idea, my judgment is truly exceptional. Xiangzhuo was practically bursting with excitement doing a somersault. On the spot. Then he grabbed a bottle of champagne and sprayed it wildly out the window, making a ruckus. In contrast, Wang Chen’s expression remained calm, showing no change despite winning the bet on the moon chase. Soon, his phone received a bank notification. Industrial and commercial. Bank reminds you, your account has been credited 12 million, your account balances 49 ,554,479,524. Wang Chen glanced at his phone, a pleasing smile, curling at the corners of his mouth. You little rascal, hiding your talents. To hit that bet, the odds for a solo win aren’t low. Guo Fucheng, stared at the crowd celebrating in the arena, raising his glass to Wang Chen. It’s just luck, Wang Chen said leisurely, taking a sip of his drink. Letting Xiangzhu dance around him, speaking slowly. He wasn’t happy about this small amount of money. Instead, he turned his gaze to the racehorses. On the field, observing them. Luck is also a part of strength, so don’t be modest. I’ll follow your bet next time, hehe. Xiang Junling looked at Wang Chen with a smile, ignoring Xiang Zui beside him. Just as everyone was chatting and laughing, the arena’s broadcast suddenly announced the preview for the next event. The electronic screen in front displayed the information of the participating racehorses and the horses for this race were brought up by the staff. The restless crowd in the stands quieted down slightly, beginning a new round of discussions in betting. For this race, I suggest you bet on Golden Gun 20, Hua Fuching said, stroking his wineglass, his gaze shifting from the screen back to Wang Chen, I bin. Keeping an eye on this horse, its data performance is quite good. Wang Chen squinted, looking up at a pitch-black racehorse on the field. The systems. Cold prompt echoed in his mind, and a light blue panel appeared before his eyes. Name, Golden Gun 20, age, 8 years, bloodline, Arabian. Thoroughbred improved breed, strength, 95, endurance, 90, he paused for a moment, holding his wine glass, this horse was indeed impressive. Seeing Wang Chin fixated on Golden Gun 20, Wu Fuching’s eyes flashed with pride as he spoke, this Golden Gun 20 has a significant background. It’s an improved breed cultivated by the Arabian royal family, and last year it set a record at the Dubai racetrack. Just look at its muscle lines. So handsome. The golden ratio of explosiveness and endurance, combined with the best jockey, this combination is nearly flawless. I can’t see. How it could lose in this race. After saying that, he quickly operated his tablet, placing a bet, I’ll bet 500,000 on a solo win. For this race, don’t make random bets, that was just good luck. This golden gun 20 is really different. Xiangz was eyes lit up as he looked. At golden gun 20 on the field, clearly satisfied, brother Gui is indeed an expert. I’ll follow your bet. This time I’ll bet 1 million Hong. Kong dollars. Little brother, I see you don’t really believe in brother Gui, you’re just betting based on how handsome the horse is, right? I. Know you too well. Xiang Ju Ling shook his head with a smile, you’re only looking at looks, not strength. But I’ll also bet on this horse. I’ll bet 50,000, the odds are 1 to 3, just a small profit. Upon hearing this, Wang Chin nodded and turned his gaze back to the other. Racehorses, name, Chasing Wind, age, 8, Bloodline, Thoroughbred, strength, 75, Stamina, 89, name, Howling Wind, age, 10, Bloodline. Thoroughbred, Strength, 90, Stamina, 95, Name, Flying Eagle King, Age, 6, Bloodline, English Thoroughbred, Strength, 92, Stamina, 70. Wang Chen. Looked around and found no good horses. All the stats were significantly lower than Golden Gun 20, making it impossible to compare. He then hesitated. No longer found the betting page for Golden Gun 20 on his tablet and placed another bet of 1 million Huasha coins. With three times the odds, it was better than nothing. At least he could earn a little. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 1 million, doubling the cash back to 2 million. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 100 system points. It seems you also recognize this good horse, indeed, great. Minds think alike. Wu Fuching saw Wang Chen’s betting amount and displayed a look of surprise and satisfaction. He heavily patted Wang Chen on the shoulder, his eyes filled with mutual admiration. Normally, a young man of Wang Chen’s age would like to go against the grain, if he bet on other horses, Wu Fuching wouldn’t be surprised at all. But now, following him to bet on Golden Gun 20, such temperament is truly remarkable. Not an. Ordinary person. However, Wang Chin merely smiled faintly, casually placing the tablet on the table, lifting his wine glass for a light sip. I’m just. Following brother Gua’s insight. I know nothing about horses. His tone was calm, as if this million dollar bet was just a casual act. But for the. Few people in the box, this million was nothing. Seeing this, Gua Fuching became even more pleased, raising his glass and downing the wine, after. The race, I’ll treat everyone to a nice celebration at the restaurant. At this moment, the broadcast at the racecourse sounded again, reminding the audience that the race time had arrived. Guo Fuqing stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, his gaze fixed tightly on Golden Gun 20. On the track. It was entirely black, and he couldn’t understand why it was called Golden Gun, it didn’t match at all. At this moment, it was. Rearing its head and neighing, its black mane flying under the lights, looking particularly handsome. Soon, as the starting gate lifted, Golden Gun. 20 shot out like an arrow, its dark body leaving a flowing shadow on the track. The audience erupted in a deafening cheer. Xiangzhu watched closely. With binoculars, brother Guo was right. Golden Gun 20’s starting speed has left the other horses behind. The race quickly ended. Golden Gun 20 unsurprisingly took first place, winning the victory. Wang Chen’s account received another 3 million. The countdown for the third race of The Night began. As per tradition, the racehorses for this race came out to meet the audience, and those wanting to place bets carefully observed the condition of these horses. After the first two races, they were now more cautious with their bets, this money wasn’t as easy to earn as they had imagined. Horses that seemed experienced and had won first-class races had not outperformed the lesser-known horses. In the second race, they had bet on the horse they favored, but it hadn’t beaten the seasoned veterans on the track. This left them somewhat puzzled, unsure of how to place their bets. Guo Fuching’s tense shoulders finally relaxed. That’s more like it, if another horse unexpectedly won the championship this time, it would be embarrassing. After all the hype about Golden Gun 20, any mishap would be a slap in the face. Thankfully, thankfully, Guo Fuching was very satisfied with this result, laughing loudly, I told you Golden Gun 20 wouldn’t disappoint. Truly a great horse that has broken records. He raised his glass and drank it all, a confident smile returning to his face, this is the third race, I recommend betting on the emperor. The emperor. has won 9 out of his last 10 matches, claiming the championship and just last month he swept the field in Singapore with a record-breaking performance. Records indicate that the emperor’s top sprinting speed reached 80 km per hour and even top riders say that riding him feels like driving a top-tier supercar. That kind of feeling is not something you can get from riding an ordinary racehorse. Guo Fucheng looked at the pale yellow racehorse with longing in his eyes. He also raised horses and had a unique passion for racing. He had long been envious of the best. racehorses in the world but those that had won championships and set records were particularly expensive he had heard of this emperor before the price was over 300 million which was simply outrageous with his net worth he couldn’t bear to buy such an expensive horse he then placed a bet of 5 million hong kong dollars on this horse also for a win but the odds were low only 1 to 1.5 however as long as it performed steadily to take first place it wouldn’t be a problem low odds were just fine it was basically a sure win Hearing this, eagerly picked up his tablet and said to Guo Fucheng, Brother Guo’s recommendation is definitely reliable. I think this horse is also good, it’s a champion material. I’m betting 3 million. He turned to Wang Chan, his eyes filled with anticipation. Wang Chan, what do you think? This horse is pretty good, my dad mentioned it once during dinner. Xiang Junling confidently said, I didn’t expect the odds given by the event. Organizers to be 1.5, this is a guaranteed profit deal. For a racehorse of the emperor’s caliber, having odds of 1 to 1 is already considered good. Xiang Junling took out his tablet, looked closely, and smiled, as expected, the amount bet on the emperor has already reached 8.00 million Hong Kong dollars, while the bets on other racehorses are only 150 million. All of us who follow the trend are just. Trying to make a little money, Guo Fucheng laughed. But, there are still many people willing to bet 150 million on other racehorses. Among them, some tourists are randomly betting without insider information, while others are hoping to hit a dark horse, betting small for a chance. At high odds and huge returns. Is this situation common? Wang Chen asked. Yes. This situation is quite common, many times, even champion. Racehorses can make mistakes, finishing second or third, or even last. Xiang Junling observed the horses on the track carefully and casually remarked. That’s why some people bet on other horses, the situation on the track is ever-changing, after all, racehorses are not humans. If the temperature. Tonight isn’t right, or if another horse bumps into it, it could affect its performance and thus its condition tonight. This happens too often. Wang Chen nodded thoughtfully, no wonder so many people didn’t bet on the emperor. These professional horse gamblers have their own information. Channels and professional analysts to determine which horse to buy, all thoroughly researched. However, some people purely look at betting on other. Horses with higher odds hoping to get rich overnight. But the racecourse allows these people to place bets without any limits on the amount. As long. As they keep a firm grip and don’t tamper with the horses outside the track, they don’t care. They wish for everyone in Hua Gui to come here to place. Bets. As long as someone is betting, they can profit, which is easier than 99.9% of businesses in the world. However, based on the emperor’s past performance, he is a constant winner, and the probability of him making a mistake is lower than winning the lottery. Last month, in that Singapore match, during the final sprint, he left the second place behind by three body lengths. Guo Fuching took over the conversation, shaking his head, clearly not believing that any other mishap could occur. If one were to rely on the emperor having issues, it would be better to. Expect another dark horse to emerge, that would be more reliable, Wang Chen was completely a novice in this area. After listening to Xiang Ju Ling and Guo Fuching’s analysis, he gained some understanding of horse racing. It seemed that the Hong Kong Jockey Club had managed to maintain such a booming popularity for so many years, which was indeed not that simple. If one were to bet purely based on past performances, it wouldn’t guarantee a profit. One could only say that the racetrack was like a battlefield, where situations could change in an instant, betting on horse racing was essentially gambling. It was no different from being at a card table. Wang Chen then turned his gaze to the horses on the track and activated his true vision. The horse emperor had impressive past results, but Wang Chen preferred to trust what he could see. Soon, the individual horse information for emperor appeared before him. Name, emperor, age, 8 years, bloodline, thoroughbred improved breed, strength, 95, stamina, 92. Wang Chen’s eyes lit up. Emperor truly lived up to his name. This data was simply extraordinary. With a strength of 95, just like the golden gun. and a stamina of 92, it was unbelievable. There were dozens of horses participating tonight, but Wangchen had never seen such high stats. Before. However, he didn’t place a bet immediately. To be cautious, he decided to take a look at the remaining horses. After watching for a while, Wangchen shook his head, there really wasn’t a horse better than emperor. Just as he was about to give up, something caught his eye. A pure black. Racehorse came into view, and the system panel clearly displayed this horse’s data. Name, lightning, age, 6 years, bloodline, thoroughbred, strength. 96, Stamina, 93. Seeing this data, Wang Chen was somewhat surprised, this horse’s stats were higher than Emperor’s. But why had it never won a grade 1 race? Logically speaking, this horse was not young anymore and had participated in many races. If it truly had potential, it shouldn’t have failed to win a championship. Was there something wrong? Confused, Wang Chen picked up his tablet and found the horse’s information. It’s showed that this horse had been injured in a previous race and its recovery had not been good. This was its first race after recovering from the injury. Upon reading this, Wang Chen chuckled softly. Without hesitation, he placed a bet of 10 million RMB. He still opted for a win bet, with odds. Displayed at 1 to 68. These odds were simply outrageous. Clearly, the jockey club officials did not expect this horse to perform well, as it had the highest odds in the entire field. Wang Chen blanced at the betting details. No one had bet on this horse yet, they all seemed to doubt. It’s… Xiangzhu turned to see Wang Chen betting on this horse and said in surprise, why are you betting on this horse? Isn’t it an injured horse? Horses that have been injured generally find it hard to return to their original form, their physical condition declined significantly, making it incredibly difficult to achieve good results, Wu Fuching exclaimed in shock, quickly adding, why did you bet on this horse? Ah, forget it, the amount isn’t too much, just consider it for fun. Mrs. Gua didn’t react much and smiled at Wang Chan, saying, since Wang Chan has bet on this lightning, there must be a reason behind it. I have high hopes for this horse, it really catches my eye. Xiangzhuo, why don’t you join me? Wang Chan raised an eyebrow and smiled at Xiangzhu, saying, I think this horse has a great chance of coming in first, why don’t you give it a try? Xiangzhu looked at lightning on the racetrack, showing a thoughtful expression. To him, this horse had no historical achievements and wasn’t particularly good-looking, it resembled a black coal ball. It had no personality at all. However, considering Wang Chan’s opinion, he decided to bet 1 million Hong Kong dollars, just to hedge the risk. After all, it was just 1 million, to him, that was nearly pocket change. he could easily make it back by skipping a few meals. Then I’ll place a bet too, I trust your judgment. Xiang Junling tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, her eyes curving into crescent moons. She looked especially gentle and adorable. She didn’t say much more, just picked up her tablet, not betting on the initially favored emperor, but instead found the betting page for lightning. She placed a direct bet of 1 million Hong Kong dollars, and like Wang Chen, she bet on a win. This amount of money was nothing to the Xiang family, her own company earned profits exceeding 1 billion Hong Kong dollars each year. Betting. 1 million on Lightning was purely out of respect for Wang Chen, even if she lost, it wouldn’t matter. It was just for fun. Moreover, being. Able to get closer to Wang Chen was worth more than a million. Their goal for the night was to ensure Wang Chen had a good time. Everything else was. Secondary. To make Wang Chen happy, it wouldn’t be impossible to secretly manipulate things to let Lightning win, that thought flashed through her. Mind. If it weren’t for the fact that the Horse Racing Association was an official organization, some things would be difficult to manage, she really wanted to give it a try. Before long, the horses were led back, preparing for the start of the third race. On the electronic screen, Lightning’s name hung alone on track 3, with astonishing odds. So far, only Wang Chen, Xiang Zhuo, and Xiang Junling had bet on this horse. 2 million Hong Kong dollars and 10 million Hua Xia coins. If Lightning won this race, Xiang Zhuo and Xiang Junling would win 68 million Hong Kong dollars. Wang Chan would win 680 million Hua Xia coins. However, at this moment, Xiang Zua and Xiang Jun Ling clearly did not believe that. Lightning could secure first place. Their eyes were fixed on the emperor. They wanted to see what kind of splendor this horse, capable of reaching, speeds of 80 kilometers per hour would display on the racetrack. Guo Fucheng and his wife Fang Yuan were nervously watching the emperor on the racetrack. Their expressions excited. 5 million Hong Kong dollars. This amount was not much for them either. Their excitement was purely due to. anticipation of the emperor’s performance curious to see how far ahead it could leave the second place behind the moment the gate lifted the emperor shot out like an arrow released from a bow its golden mane flying wildly like a streak of sunlight truly worthy of the name emperor it had already pulled ahead of the other horses by a head length just as the race seemed to have no suspense suddenly lightning let out a low whinny from the side and the rider on its back cracked the whip in hand causing its drooping ears to perk up it arched its back muscles beneath its black coat tensing like a coiled python, and surged forward like a black lightning bolt. Damn, that speed. Hua Fuchum, who had been leisurely sipping. Wine, now gaped in surprise. The red wine splashed from his glass, leaving a stain on his expensive suit, but he was oblivious, his eyes glued to the rapidly sprinting lightning on the racetrack. Lightning’s hooves barely touched the ground, its black mane billowing in the wind. With each stride, it seemed to be battling the earth, the sound booming. In just a few breaths, lightning closed the gap with the emperor, their figures almost neck. And neck. The emperor’s rider sensed the threat behind and yanked the reins hard, shouting loudly. The emperor, like an enraged beast, let out a deafening whinny, its yellow mane standing on end, accelerating once more. But lightning clung closely to the emperor’s side, the rider’s whip falling. Like raindrops, each strike landing on the horse’s rear. The speed increased even more. The stands erupted in a frenzy, cheers and gasps blending. Into a cacophony, as if the entire racetrack was trembling. Guo Fuching’s eyes were wide with astonishment, nearly popping out, before the race, he. had mocked it as a disabled sick horse, but at this moment he saw lightning, moving at an unreasonable speed, pushing the king, whom he had bet five million Hong Kong dollars on, into a desperate situation. This was just too absurd. Mrs. Gui instinctively covered her mouth, unable to believe. This was real. This is impossible. His voice was filled with disbelief, with the king’s speed, how could there be a horse faster than it? And. It’s a sick horse. In contrast, Xiang Junling merely leaned forward slightly, astonished as she watched the incredibly fast lightning. She. Instinctively said, it’s truly unbelievable. Before Xiang Junling could recover from her shock, Xiang Zua suddenly jumped up like a firecracker. Wrapping his arms around his sister’s shoulders and spinning her around three times, nearly sending Xiang Junling’s high heels flying. He laughed. Revealing a mouthful of white teeth, his grin stretching to the back of his head. I told you Wang Chen has a good eye. This is a 58. Times payout. As he spoke, he suddenly let go of Xiang Junling and slapped the railing hard. King, today my lightning is going to step on you two. Rise to the top. Ha ha ha. Xiang Zhuo, ecstatic to the extreme, even began to twist his body and dance an exaggerated dance, waving his hands in the air to cheer for lightning. Xiang Junling adjusted her clothes, watching her brother’s antics, and couldn’t help but cover her face. This was just. Too embarrassing. Wang Chan took a bite of a tart, savoring it. He was not surprised by the outcome. Lightning was also an experienced racehorse, with. No less experience than the king, it had just been injured and hadn’t raced in a long time, so no one knew its true strength. Now that lightnings. injuries had healed and all its stats were higher than the king’s, it would be strange if it didn’t win, as lightning completely surpassed the king, the stands erupted in curses, but there were also voices of joy mixed in, a middle-aged man in the front row slammed his beer can onto the racetrack, shouting angrily, what the hell are you doing, king, I bet two million, are you bewitched by lightning, this isn’t even a mare, I’ve had enough, tmd run faster, not far from him, a sunglasses wearing lady was also cursing loudly, completely losing her usual elegance, useless, Where’s the promised 80 kilometers per hour? This damn horse can’t even outrun a sick one, go eat shit. The crowd erupted into a series of shoves. As expected, time passed quickly. The first to cross the finish line was lightning, closely followed by the king, who was gasping for breath and letting out unwilling whinnies. The rider on the king’s back, frustrated, swung the whip down onto the king’s body. Seeing this result, someone clutched. Their bedding slipped, their face pale, trembling uncontrollably, it’s over, it’s over, I was hoping to make some money, now I’m going to be eating. The Northwest Wind His voice was tinged with tears. A big man nearly cried out loud in front of tens of thousands of people. It was too painful. The entire racetrack felt like a boiling pot of oil. The audience’s faces flushed, fists waving, extremely angry. Impossible. This is absolutely impossible. My eight million. Let go of me. I want to confront the organizers. This race is rigged. There’s definitely a conspiracy. I mortgaged. My house. How am I supposed to live now? Lightning, you bastard. I curse you. Some people were already losing their minds, even cursing the. animals. They had truly suffered a huge loss. Wang Chen’s account also received 680 million Huashia coins. Wang Chen finished the last piece of dessert, leisurely wiping his mouth with a napkin. Xiangzhuo rushed in front of Wang Chen, excitedly opening his arms and pulling him into. A hug, Wang Chen. You are simply the god of wealth descended to earth. This time I can earn over 60 million, and I can enjoy myself for a few. Months, Wang Chen frowned slightly, just about to push away the body close to him. Xiangzhuo suddenly knelt on one knee, grabbing his hand and banging. it against his forehead. From today on, I, Xiangzhuo, will be your loyal little brother. In the future, whether it’s climbing mountains or diving into the sea, as long as you say the word, I won’t hesitate. From now on, if you tell me to go west, I won’t dare to chase chickens, if you tell me to go east, I absolutely won’t slack off. If I dare to go against this, I, Xiangzhuo, will live stream myself eating 10 pounds of Oreos, not even blinking while doing it. Xiangzhuo held Wang Chen’s hand, his eyes wide open, his expression serious, you said you want to acquire a race course. I’ll carry an excavator overnight to flatten the competition. You said you want to throw a yacht party, I’ll book all the yachts in Victoria Harbor. And if that’s not enough, I’ll borrow an aircraft carrier to make a scene. As he spoke, he suddenly jumped up, did a somersault on the spot. His clothes covered in dust without a care, and laughed, from now on, my wallet is your wallet, my sports car is your sports car, my women, my women, are still my women, and all my little brothers will listen to your orders. If anyone dares to say a single negative word in front of you, I’ll take. My brothers and rush over, blocking him in the bathroom to drink Oreos for three days and nights. Wang Chin sighed, holding his forehead, truly speechless at Xiang Zuo. Xiang Junling, seeing this, shifted her gaze from her phone, where the over 60 million had just arrived. She was completely unfazed by Xiang’s was exaggerated reaction. After so many years, she had long gotten used to Xiang’s was occasional outbursts, although this was a bit more exaggerated than usual, it was not surprising. After all, this was 68 million Hong Kong dollars in cash. With the Xiang families, vast fortune, having this much cash on hand was not easy. At first, she just wanted to place a casual bet of 1 million for Wang Chen’s sake. Thinking if she lost, it would just be a game with him, never expecting to win. Who would have thought that lightning would run faster than the king? The king’s top sprint speed reaches 80 kilometers per hour. It was practically a horse-shaped car, consuming a bundle of hay for every 100 kilometers. Yet, at such a speed, it was still overtaken by lightning, which surprised everyone. Just how fast is lightning? How did Wang Chen come up? With the idea to bet on this horse and even bet 10 million, and actually win? What the hell? Hwo Fucheng only then woke up from his days. He couldn’t believe the result, not because he lost 5 million. This small amount of money was nothing to him. He attended almost every horse. Race, let alone such a golden event, losing tens of millions to the horse racing club every month was quite normal. What surprised him was that. Lightning, by all accounts, should not have come in first place, especially against a competitor like the king who had broken records. He remembered. Lightning, it had participated in several races a few years ago and had achieved good results. But in one race, it had an accident, colliding with another horse, resulting in a torn ligament in its leg, and he hadn’t seen it on the track for a long time. He heard that after that accident, its recovery was not good, and its rehabilitation training was slow. But now, how did this fast-running horse come about? It even outran the king. It was simply the biggest dark horse of the night. He looked at Xiang Zhuo and Xiang Junling, who had followed Wang Chen’s advice to bet 1 million hong. Kong dollars and 168 million, feeling a bit envious. If he had listened to Wang Chen and bet a few million at the start, wouldn’t he have made a fortune? Mrs. Guo raised her meticulously drawn eyebrows, curiously looking at Wang Chen and asking, how did you pick this sick horse? Everyone is betting against it, do you have some insider information? Mrs. Guo, you jest. I have no insider information at all. Wang Chen smiled, faintly and said, it’s just a feeling. I just think that Lightning was a fierce competitor on the field before. Even if he was injured before, his. inherent fighting spirit won’t be lost he should run fiercely mrs gu looked at wang chen with suspicion the corners of her mouth curling into a half smile half sneer mr wang’s luck could it be that the god of wealth is feeding him her eyes were filled with doubt as if she were trying to find a flaw in wang chen’s face that would reveal a lie after all who would bet on a sick horse that’s a direct bet of 10 million that’s not a small amount if he loses even this young master in front of her who knows which family he comes from should feel the pinch wang chen calmly sipped his champagne, then raised his gaze to meet Mrs. Gu’s eyes, his tone still calm, Mrs. Gu, you also bet quite a bit on each match, do you rely on information every time, besides, if there really were insider tips, why would I involve the Xiang siblings in the betting, wouldn’t it be better, to keep all the benefits to myself, just joking, I was just curious, Mrs. Gu said, momentarily at a loss for words, opening her mouth but unsure, how to retort, she could only smile, but her gaze still lingered on Wang Chen, clearly, her suspicion of him had not dissipated. Sometimes, luck. Comes, and you can’t stop it, Wang Chen said lightly. I’ve always had good luck. Wang Sikong often says I’m a favored child of heaven, a child of. Fortune. I feel that way too, otherwise, how could I keep winning bets? Why don’t you all follow my lead and place your bets with me? I feel like. I should be able to make a lot of money tonight. Gu Fuching and a few others exchanged glances, scoffing at Wang Chen’s claim of being a child of fortune. Was he trying to fool children? But they had to admit that Wang Chen’s luck was indeed very good, aside from the second match he had already. won too. And the horses he bet on were all dark horses. Horses that no one expected to win the race. After analyzing all aspects, either Wang Chen had some insider information, or his luck was truly extraordinary. But the Xiang family, a wealthy family in Hong Kong, had no insider information. About the horse races, how could this young rich second generation from the mainland have it? That was completely impossible. However, in the subsequent races, every horse Wang Chen bet on, without exception, finished in first place. There were dark horses that caused upsets, as well as seasoned horses that had won first-class championships. As long as it was a horse Wangchen bet on, it ultimately won, and with the previous three races, he had already won seven in a row. Wangchen consistently bet 40 million and once again earned 1 ,580,000,000. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 40 million and the cashback is 80 million. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 4,000. System points. The balance in Wang Chen’s card reached an unprecedented 500 billion Hua Xia coins. And it was all cash. He was not far from. Surpassing the cash king of the capital. Xiang Zhao and Xiang Junling who had followed Wang Chen’s bets, each won 7 to 800 million. Hong Kong dollars. Xiang Zhao was so happy that he couldn’t close his mouth. This was truly his newly recognized big brother he had made so much. Money in one go. What was the point of running a company? If he ran out of money in the future, he could just bring his big brother here, and in one. night, he could earn what he couldn’t make in years. Xiang Zhao just wanted to slack off like this, the money was coming too fast. Gu Fu Chang and, his wife were also staring blankly at the Hong Kong dollars arriving in their phones, looking dazed. At first, when Wang Chin said it was just good. Luck, they completely didn’t believe it. But deep down, they were still secretly pondering whether Wang Chin had some other channels of information, that allowed him to know the true condition of these horses in advance, or if there was something fishy going on, with a mindset of giving it a try. Gu Fuching placed a bet on the horse he favored after the fourth race started, betting 100,000 Hong Kong dollars alongside Wang Chen. But the result, in this competition, it was still the horse that Wang Chen had bet on, which came in first and achieved the final victory. After this bet, Gu Fuching no longer hesitated and followed Wang Chen’s bets in the subsequent races. In the end, he earned over 500 million Hong Kong dollars. Is this the benefit of having privileges? Gu Fuching looked at Wang Chen with a gaze that no longer held the casualness it had at the beginning. Wang Chen must have obtained information that they were unaware of. This only indicated that the forces behind him were frighteningly powerful, a person that a small, faded star like him could not approach. Now, being able to chat and laugh with Wang Chen in the same private room was entirely due to the blessings of the Xiang siblings. His mind was racing, staring at Wang Chen’s handsome face, secretly speculating. He knew many of these second-generation rich kids in Hong Kong, but none of the Wang family members were like Wang Chen. Moreover, they couldn’t possibly know the Insider information of the Jockey Club. It should be noted that the Jockey Club is officially operated, and from the very beginning, it has eliminated any leaks of insider information in grey market transactions. Over the years, no one has ever made money based on information that others did not. No. Even if some horse owners secretly traded, those people are now eating from a big pot in Hong Kong’s Stanley Prison, their sewing machines. Flying. It is completely impossible to escape sanctions. Hong Kong’s judiciary truly upholds the rule of law. Guo Fuching thought and thought, yet. Still couldn’t understand. He stared fixedly at Wang Chen, feeling increasingly uneasy. Finally, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind. You are. Wang Chen. Hua Fuching exclaimed in shock, instinctively crying out. Yes, he is Wang Chen. Didn’t I introduce him to you at the beginning? Xiang. Zhao laughed heartily. Seeing Hua Fuching’s delayed reaction, he laughed so hard he had to hold his stomach. Wang Chen is now a well -known figure. In mainland Hua Gua. Those few interactions with Wang Sikong, Xinfun, and the streamers have already made most people aware of the second generation. Rich kid named Wang Chen. However, in Hong Kong, to be honest, Wang Chen’s fame is still not as great as that of the racehorses here. He knew the terrifying background behind Wang Chen. Following Wang Chen’s bets without hesitation was also a guess as to whether he knew some information that others did not. He was indeed sharp. As a result, he was right, all the subsequent races were successful bets, earning him so much money. Gua Fuchong looked at Wang Chen’s calm demeanor and the Xiang siblings’ nonchalant expressions and he couldn’t help but chuckle. He felt truly foolish. If he had known Wang Chen’s identity from the start, why bet on other horses? Given Wang Chen’s identity and background, it wouldn’t be surprising at all if he knew insider information about the jockey club. After all, Wang Chen is backed by the Wang family. This is a colossal entity with very few families in all of Hua Gua able to compare. If he had followed Wang Chen’s bets earlier, he could have earned a few more billion. But it’s not too. Late now, there’s still one last race tonight. Hua Fuching was eager to try, wanting to gamble a few billion Hong Kong dollars. However, he still felt. A bit hesitant. It wasn’t that he doubted Wang Chan’s ability to win again, but he was worried that if he bet too much, it might cause unnecessary. Trouble. If he were to earn tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, Wang Chan and the Xiang siblings, with their vast family wealth, might not be. Pursued by the jockey club, but he would be in big trouble. After all, Hua Fuching was just a small star, and a faded one at that. Even though he now. Had his own company, which could be considered capital, his foundation was still too shallow. He simply couldn’t withstand the turmoil. It was better. To honestly follow Wang Chen, betting on the same horse he did, just slightly less than the amount Wang Chen bet. With this true prince in front. Even if the jockey club’s officials discovered something amiss, they probably wouldn’t come looking for trouble with him. The dusk was as dark. As ink. The time had come to 10 o’clock at night.I in the distance, the high-rise buildings of the racecourse shimmered with neon lights, bustling. With activity. Tonight’s competition had reached its final and most anticipated match, featuring eight champion racehorses from top-tier races. Some, owners, confident in their horses’ abilities, also chose to participate, believing they could achieve good results in this race. The audience chatted. Among themselves, the rising cheers and betting sounds intertwining like a boiling pot of oil. Those who had won bets tonight were naturally overjoyed. Their excited expressions evident. On the other hand, those who had lost had bloodshot eyes, eager to reclaim their losses in the upcoming race. Some looked utterly dejected, trembling all over. They had already lost significantly, with no hope of turning things around. Wang Chen leaned back. On the leather sofa in the private box, his long fingers stroking the armrest as he observed the myriad expressions of the crowd. Guo Fuching, Xiang, Zhao, and others looked at Wang Chen with a sense of awe. There exists a small group of people at the pinnacle of the pyramid, looking down on the world as if viewing ants. This small group did not include Xiang Zhao or the little star Guo Fuching, but rather the man before them, Wang Chen. With just a bit of insider knowledge, he could amass billions in a short time. This is the essence of social class. This is why breaking through class. Barriers is so difficult. The Xiang family seemed to be an unattainable presence for many bosses in Hong Kong, but in front of Wang Chen, they realized what a true aristocracy is. What a family with genuine heritage looks like. For ordinary people, achieving even a small goal is nearly impossible. Without unexpected circumstances. Some chosen ones may find success in their careers, but it could take 10 or 20 years to earn such wealth. Only they know the sacrifices made along the way. They must taste all the joys and sorrows, and after swallowing enough tears, they may transform into a butterfly, becoming the diamond bachelor of their youth. Yet for someone like Wang Chen, standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid, he could effortlessly acquire unimaginable wealth with just a flick of his finger. Wang Chen glanced at the others, guessing their thoughts. They were merely questioning how he could have accurately bet on the racehorse this time. Wang Chen had always been open about the abilities granted by the system, without any concealment. With the system modifying his understanding, he had no worries about others doubting him, regardless of the aspect. Additionally, with the Wang family’s immense backing, whatever he said or did would be attributed to them, further alleviating his concerns about exposing the system’s existence. Guo Fuching looked at the racehorses being showcased on the track, then flatteringly turned to Wang Chen and said, Young, Master Wang, which horse should we bet on for the next race? This is the last race of the night, and everyone is placing bets. Many are confident. In the champion horse, with total bets reaching 1 .6 billion Hong Kong dollars, his gaze shifted back and forth on Wang Chen. He had even changed his address to young master Wang. In front of Wang Chen, he no longer appeared as composed as at the beginning, now seeming somewhat restrained. Xiao secretly nudged Guo Fuching, a smile in his eyes. Guo Fuching’s face instantly flushed. He shot Xiang Xiao a glare but continued to look eagerly at Wang Chen. Wang Chen nodded, his gaze turning to the racehorses on the track, preparing to select another horse to bet on, ready to conclude. Tonight’s entertainment. For him, tonight’s horse racing was merely an amusing pastime, unrelated to winning or losing. At that moment, a commotion. Suddenly erupted outside the box, the sound of heavy objects falling and the clear shouts of bodyguards filtering in. Bang! The door to the box was. Forcefully pushed open, producing a dull thud. Guo Fuching’s expression changed instantly, his brows furrowing as he prepared to explode in anger, what? kind of person lacks such basic manners? Upon raising his eyes, he immediately lowered his head. Wang Chen, however, remained calm and composed, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him, merely glancing faintly towards the entrance. At that moment, at the door of the private room, several burly men in black were clashing with the bodyguards brought by Long Fong and Xiang Xia. The two sides exchanged blows. Long Fong sidestepped, to avoid an attack from the opposite side and retreated in front of Wang Chen. Everyone, stop. A deep voice rang out. The men in black instantly halted their movements, stepping aside to clear a path. The bodyguards brought by Xiang Xia received no further instructions and could only watch the newcomer warily. A young man, tall and imposing, stepped out slowly from behind. He wore a dark gray suit, and his polished shoes crunched. On the debris scattered on the floor, each step exuding a sense of pressure. Beneath the suit, his bare chest muscles were exposed, left open. Wang Chen reached up to touch his chin, looking at the newcomer. From his accent, it was clear he was from Hong Kong, it was his first time here, and he hadn’t offended anyone. Clearly, he wasn’t here to find him. The moment their eyes met, Zhang Jigang’s lips curled into a half-smile, half-smirk. What brings you here? Xiang Xia frowned and said impatiently, can’t you see we’re having a great time? What a buzzkill. Zhang Jigang stuffed his hands into his pockets and stepped forward leisurely. He acted as if he were not an outsider at all, plopping down on the sofa in front of him. He Blanced at Wang Chen’s extraordinarily handsome face, a flicker of jealousy crossing his eyes. Then he let out a light laugh, his open suit revealing. The contours of his bronze chest muscles that rose and fell with his breathing faint tattoos visible. What an interesting thing to say, young Master Xiang. As far as I know, you all made quite a fortune tonight. I just came to ask for a celebratory drink, didn’t I? Go back where you came. From, can’t you see I have esteemed guests here? Xiang Xia showed no signs of yielding. He then leaned over to whisper a few words in Wang Chen’s ear. Only then did Wang Chen understand the background of the man before him. This man named Zhang Jigang had always been at odds with Xiang Xia. Whenever they met, bloodshed was inevitable. They wouldn’t stop until one side suffered. This old fellow had connections in both the underworld and the upper echelons in Hong Kong, with a family business in jewelry that held a significant share in the global market, wielding considerable power. In Hong Kong Island, he belonged to an absolutely top-tier family. Esteemed guest? Zhang Jigang scoffed, looking at Wang Chen and saying, the Xiang. Family is really going downhill, even this pretty boy can be considered your esteemed guest? Could this be the reason you’ve been winning so many? Matches? May I ask your surname, sir? No need for formality, my surname is Wang. Wang Chen looked at the provocative man with a half smile. He was somewhat curious about what tricks this air of a jewelry family wanted to play. Tonight’s match was a bit dull anyway, finding some other fun. Wouldn’t be bad. Wang? Jung Ji Gang sized him up, then revealed a hint of disdain. This pretty boy was indeed handsome, but in his impression. There was no such character on Hong Kong Island who could be considered an esteemed guest. Guo Fuching and his wife politely greeted him, then shrank back into the corner, not daring to breathe, their eyes darting between the few of them. The grudges between the young masters of wealthy families were not something he could meddle in. Wang Chen and Xiang Xia didn’t care, he couldn’t afford to show them a sour face and the necessary etiquette still had to be observed. Small -time players. Sometimes, bowing down was unavoidable. Where did this little North brat come from, thinking he’s worthy of being in this private room? Zhang Jigang shook his head, mocking, you really lower the standards here. Before Zhang Jigang could finish his sentence, Xiang Zha had already grabbed a bottle of wine from the table and smashed it on the ground. Zhang Jigang, watch your mouth. Xiang Junling frowned and said lightly, at your age, still pulling this kind of stunt? Young Master Wang is not someone you can provoke. If you know what’s good for you, get lost quickly. Zhang Jigang scoffed and laughed, provocation? That’s a good word, I’m really so scared. Ha ha ha ha. He deliberately elongated his tone while a lackey behind him took out a cigar and lit it for him. I heard that soft rice is all the rage in the mainland now. With Mr. Wang’s face he could save a lot of effort in striving. He cast a strange look at Xiang Junling and Wang Chen. Xiang Xiaowen’s face darkened at his words, ready to explode. At that moment, manager Li arrived late and upon seeing the situation, his expression turned somewhat unpleasant. I’m sorry, young master Xiang, it’s my fault for not handling this properly. A staff member leaked the betting situation. I truly apologize. Manager Li looked at everyone in the box, full of regret. Then he turned to Zheng Zhigang, pleading, Young Master Zhang, could you give our horse racing association some face? There are so many spectators outside, it wouldn’t look good if this got out. Don’t worry, I will still give your horse racing association some face. Zheng Zhigang flicked the ash from his cigar and the ember fell onto Manager Li’s shiny leather shoes, scorching a black mark. However, Manager Li didn’t dare to get angry and could only force a smile. He slowly stood up, looking out at the situation on the racetrack through the glass curtain wall. But the money you win tonight, I fear it might not have a clean source? He suddenly reached. Outing grabbed manager Li’s tie, pulling him close. I heard someone knew the horse’s conditions in advance? Oldly, do you think this counts as a gambling scandal? Young Master Zhang, this, this is all a misunderstanding. Cold sweat broke out on manager Li’s forehead, stammering. Our horse. Racing Association has always strictly monitored the horse’s conditions and there absolutely won’t be any scandal like this. You can rest assured. Xiang Zhouen’s expression changed drastically, about to retort, but Wang Chen raised his hand to stop him. Wang Chen calmly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked outside, standing beside him. Since you suspect a scandal, why not just call the police? Call the police? Zheng. Jigang smirked, a cruel smile curling at the corners of his mouth, the cigar slowly rotating between his fingers, knowing the horse’s conditions in. Advance is not something just anyone can do, and even if they called the police, it would be useless. The Xiang family couldn’t do it, and the Zhang family would find it difficult as well. Such people were not someone he could provoke. However, he also didn’t believe that the people in this box had that capability. He suddenly kicked manager Li aside, who fell awkwardly to the ground, his tie askew around his neck, looking quite disheveled. The horse racing association is deep in water, if it really comes to an investigation. I don’t want to get involved in this muddy water. He. deliberately paused, his gaze sweeping over Xiang Xiaowen. Some people might end up with nothing left. Wang Chen had his hands in his pockets, the glass curtain wall reflecting his calm profile, the fleeting shadows of galloping horses on the racetrack contrasting sharply with the standoff behind him. So, what does young master Zhang want? He slowly turned around, revealing the Vacheron Constantine on his wrist. Zhang Jigang’s pupils, suddenly constricted, dismissing his earlier contempt. This watch was worth tens of millions. This kid was not an ordinary person. Planning to use. Baseless accusations to force us to cough up money? Wang Chin said lightly. You’re joking, I don’t want to get involved in these matters, but, in just seven races, earning tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, such outrageous operations, saying there’s no insider information, even a three-year-old wouldn’t believe it. Zheng Jigang took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the smoke. Guo Fuching and his wife shrank in the corner, wanting to say something upon hearing this. Fang Yuan nervously tugged at his clothes and shook his head, causing Guo Fuching’s expression to freeze, and he, lowered his head, both of them not daring to breathe. However, Xiang Xiaowen couldn’t hold back any longer, stepping forward angrily, Zhang Jigang. Don’t slander us. Slander? Ask these bodyguards if they believe there’s no scandal involved? Zhang Jigang suddenly closed in, the tattoos, fatally visible under his suit twisting with his movements. Do you think I’m an idiot? The atmosphere on sight instantly became somewhat tense. The bodyguards maintained their expressions but their eyes revealed their true thoughts. They didn’t believe that hitting seven matches in one night. could be done without any foul play. These wealthy young masters had all sorts of tricks up their sleeves. Wang Chen suddenly chuckled, breaking the standoffish atmosphere. Zhang Xiao, right? You should save these little tricks to scare others. Wang Chen smiled, if you really have any evidence. Proving that we know things we shouldn’t, you can report it to the jockey club. Making a fuss here is just annoying and a waste of breath, isn’t it? Zhang Jigang suddenly threw his head back and laughed, his laughter echoing in the private room. Most people on site exchanged glances, unsure. of what he was up to this time. He wiped his face with his hand and laughed, huh, just trying to stir you up, do you really think I believe you? Have some extraordinary abilities? He casually loosened his collar, revealing a grotesque tattoo on his collarbone, the entire Hong Kong jockey. Club keeps racing information strictly confidential, and you think you can do it? It’s not that I look down on you guys, but you really can’t do it. Jung Ji Gang waggled a finger, if it were that simple, the jockey club wouldn’t need to exist, anyone could bet on the winning horse and go bankrupt. He slowly circled Wang Chen, his leather shoes crunching the glass shards on the floor, making a crisp sound, it’s just luck, hitting a few good horses by chance. Do you really think you’re the gambling king? As he spoke, he suddenly stopped in front of Guo Fuching, leaning in close, scaring the latter’s face to turn pale, this Mr. Guo? Why are you still so respectful to the son of the old boss? Truly dedicated. Ha ha ha. Suddenly, he stomped heavily on the coffee table, how about this, the last race is about to start, let’s bet on whether your luck is better or my judgment is better? Winner takes all, if you lose, 70% of what you earn tonight goes to me, and I won’t make it hard for you. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee whether your hands and feet will be intact, or not. What big talk are you spouting, just with you few? Xiang just shook his head, disdainfully saying, it’s not that I look down on you, but you think you can take our hands and feet? Too naive. Upon hearing this, Zhang. Jigang’s smile grew even wider, since I dare to say this, of course, I came prepared. The famous Xiang Xiao, I certainly didn’t underestimate you. Outside the jockey club, there are already hundreds of my little brothers guarding various key points, with a single command, they can appear. Immediately. You think you can take us on with just this many people? Idiot. Xiangzha’s neck muscles bulged as he grabbed a nearby ashtray and hurled it at Zheng Jigang’s head, but a burly man in black raised his hand to block it, leaving Zheng Jigang unharmed while the fragments crashed against the wall with a piercing sound. Zheng Jigang, do you think my Xiang family is easy to bully? He tore open the button of his collar, revealing a Muscular physique, I can call right now, and within 10 minutes, all the brothers from Kowloon can arrive. At worst, we’ll just have a bloody fight. Zheng Ji Gang, however, remained unhurried, leisurely pulling out his phone and shaking it, the screen clearly showing a string of call records. Xiang Xiao, are you going to call Boss Chen from Tsim Sha Sui? Or Uncle Biao from Causeway Bay? Or should I call some double red flower gang? To save the day? He deliberately elongated his tone, half smiling, we haven’t seen each other for almost half a year, I thought I was treating you. With respect. Unfortunately, your subordinates might have a little trouble. By the time they free up and arrive here, it might be too late. You have been minced into meat paste by then. Ha ha ha.” Xiang Zhao’s bodyguards instinctively tightened their grips on their weapons. The burly men in. Black across from them also pulled out knives, batons, and other weapons. Hua Fuqing and his wife turned pale, secretly lamenting their bad luck. For encountering such a calamity tonight, Xiang Junling’s face finally turned serious as she said sternly, Zhang Ji Gang, do you know what you’re doing? You’re declaring war on the entire Xiang family. So what if I am? What can you do about it? Zhang Jigang took a deep drag from his cigar, the flame illuminating the coldness in his eyes, either you obediently gamble on the final round, or. He suddenly kicked over the coffee table. Shards of glass raining down at Xiangzhu’s feet, I’ll have someone chop off your fingers, one by one, to feed the dogs. Long Feng leaned close to. Wang Chen Zirin whispered, Young Master Wang, the situation is dire. Should we call the old master? Not for now, Wang Chen replied, glancing. at him. When did Longfong get bought off by Wang Jianguo? The old master is already involved. Wang Jianguo is impressive, even reaching out to those around him. However, Wang Chen didn’t mind, it was inevitable that Wang Jianguo would be wary of those close to him. He believed that Wang Jianguo already knew about the situation here. Perhaps someone was already on their way. Wang Chen looked down at the mess around him, stepping on a wine bottle that had rolled to his feet, the sharp sound of shattering glass echoing painfully in the silent private room. Zhang Xiao’s gamble is. Indeed ruthless, Wangchen said, raising his eyes with a cold smirk at the corner of his lips, if we lose, don’t say 70% of tonight’s. Earnings, I’ll give you everything. He paused, his gaze sweeping over the gun handle faintly visible at Zheng Jigang’s waist, but if you lose, there has to be a price to pay, right? Zheng Jigang laughed loudly, not caring as Ash fell onto him. Let you go? Isn’t that a price with enough? Sincerity? After all, with your delicate and handsome looks, it would be a pity to lose a finger. And when it comes to blows, I can’t guarantee that. Your pretty face will remain intact. He narrowed his eyes, his gaze slithering over Wang Chen like a venomous snake. The tattoo on his chest looked even more menacing. Zheng Xiao is underestimating this gamble. Wang Chen’s expression remained calm, but a flicker of anger passed through his eyes. Even with his composure, he couldn’t help but think that Zheng Ji Gang was too arrogant. Let us go, that’s not a price to pay. He suddenly leaned in closer, looking down at Zheng Ji Gang from above, his aura pressing down so hard that Zheng Ji Gang took a half step back. It’s hard to make me gamble with you. Zheng Jigang looked at Wang Chen, who towered over him, his face darkening instantly, a cold laugh escaping his lips. He, feigned indifference, waving his hand dismissively, fine. Then 20 billion Hong Kong dollars. If I lose, I’ll transfer it to you on the spot. But you’d better pray that you can win, or I won’t show any mercy. 20 billion Hong Kong dollars was undoubtedly an astronomical sum. This was. The largest amount he could mobilize. For him, it would take at least a year or two to recover, and if his family found out, life would be even harder. Not to mention the scolding, but he didn’t believe he would lose. Zhang Jigang loved horse racing and betting, and he even had a team of analysts to maximize his chances when placing bets. 20 billion? Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, a mocking smile curling at the corner of his lips as he flicked the ash off Zhang Jigang’s shoulder. Is Zhang Xiao begging for ohms? He suddenly leaned close to Zhang Jigang’s ear, his voice is cold. As ice, if you lose, not only do I want your 20 billion Hong Kong dollars, but I also want you to kneel and apologize in front of tens of thousands. of people, and chop off one of your fingers yourself until I’m satisfied. Looks like these people betting on horses are relying on you, being so arrogant. Zhang Jigang’s smile froze instantly, the veins on his neck bulging, and the knuckles of his hand gripping the cigar turned white. He abruptly shook off Wang Chen’s hand and stepped back two paces. Don’t push your luck. Do you think you can run wild in Hong Kong just because? You’re close to the Xiang family? Wang Chen, however, leisurely sat back down on the sofa. What’s wrong, young master Zhang, can’t you afford to gamble? Zheng Zhigang stared intently at Wang Chen’s calm face. After a moment, he suddenly threw his head back and laughed, a chilling undertone in. His laughter. Good. Good. You’re quite ruthless, kid. He abruptly crushed his cigar against the wall, leaving a dark mark. 20 billion Hong Kong. Dollars in cash plus a public apology and a finger, I, Zheng Zhigang, will accept. But if you lose, he deliberately elongated the last word. Pulling out a pitch black handgun from his waist and slowly spinning it in front of Wang Chen, even if you’re willing to pay, I’ll still stomp your. Face into mush, and as for your hand, don’t even think about keeping it. I hope young master Zhang can still be this tough then, Wang Qian said. Lightly, there was not a hint of fear, and he even wanted to laugh. With the eye of truth, he was not worried about the horse race at all. Moreover, even if he lost the race in the end, he didn’t believe Zhang Jigang would dare to lay a hand on him. If Wang Qian shed a drop of blood here, tonight, not a single person from the Zhang family would escape, they would all pay for his burial. At this moment, Xiang Zhao was secretly hiding beside. His older sister, Xiang Junling, sending messages on his phone. His fingers flew across the screen. Clearly, tonight’s events could not end well. It was not in Zhang Jigang’s character to bow his head in defeat, and he believed Wang Chen would win this race. There was no way he could lose. Even if something unexpected happened, he would ensure Wang Chen remained unscathed. Otherwise, the Xiang family would no longer be able to survive. In Hong Kong, the Xiang family was not a soft target. It was time for Wang Chen to witness the might of the Kowloon Emperor, and Xiang Zhao was no pushover either. Everyone, please don’t be angry. Harmony brings wealth. Harmony brings wealth. Manager Li wiped the sweat from his forehead, looking increasingly helpless at the scene before him. Although he held the esteemed position of manager at the racecourse, neither Xiang Zhao nor Zhang Jigang nor the unknown Wang Chen were people he could provoke. He suddenly felt a headache coming on, not knowing how to handle the situation. He could only exit the private room to report the situation to his superiors, hoping to avoid a bloody incident involving hundreds of people. If such a situation arose in front of tens of thousands of people, most of whom were tourists from around the world, his career as a manager would be over. Wang Chen maintained a mocking smile, completely unconcerned for his safety. Not to mention Wang Jianguo’s protection, with the Xiang family. Backing him, he would not suffer any losses. If being the Kowloon emperor were that easy, the Xiang family would have been dealt with long ago. Xiang Zhao subtly waved his phone at Wang Chen, signaling him. Wang Chen felt even more at ease. Tonight’s events were becoming interesting, he just. Didn’t know if Zhang Jigang would admit defeat outright after losing. If he dared to play tricks. Tonight would be a bloodbath in Hong Kong. There was no need for the Zhang family to remain. He glanced up at the display screen hanging on the wall, 7 minutes until the race starts, why? Not start betting now to avoid someone not honoring their losses. Alright, I want to see what incredible skills you have. Zhang Jigang smiled. Indifferently, glancing at the horses on the track, pulling out his phone to dial a video call. The video connected quickly, and a respectful male voice. Came through, boss, the data model shows that horse number 3, Emerald Lightning, has the highest winning probability, with current odds of 1 to 3.2. For a win, I recommend placing a bet. Emerald Lightning? Jung Jigang turned his gaze to Emerald Lightning on the track, stroking his chin. At that moment, Emerald Lightning was pawing the ground on the racetrack, its mane flying in the night win, indeed looking more fierce than the other. Racehorses. However, a burly man in black behind him handed Jung Jigang a tablet. He flipped to the data page for Emerald Lightning and his brows. gradually furrowed its previous race results haven’t been too good what are you guys doing picking this horse boss this time is different the analyst on the other end of the video was sweating profusely pushing up his glasses as he said we analyzed the previous races of emerald lightning and they were intentionally letting it go easy we collected data from its past few races and the data model revealed that the writer of emerald lightning was holding back in those races so boss you must bet on emerald lightning this is the conclusion we’ve all come to you better pray that you haven’t misjudged this time Zhang Jigang slammed the tablet down heavily on the sofa, looking at the person on the video and said, if Emerald Lightning can’t win, your entire team, from the chief analyst to the janitor, will have to pack up and go to the racetrack to clean up horse manure. Remember that. The analyst’s face instantly turned pale, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, but he still affirmed, boss, please rest assured. This time, it’s absolutely foolproof. We also. Zhang Jigang directly hung up the video call. He reached for a cigar beside him. and took a hard puff, the smoke slowly billowing out of his mouth, creating a hazy mist under the light. Then he glanced at Wang Chen, who was still, watching the horse race, and said, you know I’m going to bet on emerald lightning, right? Just to be clear, you can’t bet the same as me, or else, there won’t be a competition. Don’t worry, I have another horse in mind, Wang Chen replied without looking back. Hearing this, Zheng Ji Gang, felt relieved, picked up the tablet on the sofa, and quickly swiped his finger across the screen, though a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes. But in the end, he found the betting page for Emerald Lightning and placed a bet of 10 million Hong Kong dollars on it to win. He then raised his head, his gaze cold as he looked at Wang Chen, a grim smile on his face, I hope you can still laugh later. Just afraid that by then, you won’t even find a place to cry. Xiangzhu strode over to Wang Chen’s side, casting a wary glance at Jung Ji Gang not far away, and whispered, you’re really not betting on Emerald Lightning? That guy’s team is no joke, this horse might really have some tricks up its sleeve. Why not bet on Lightning instead? It even beat the Emperor, it should have no problem surpassing Emerald Lightning. Let me take another look, Wang Chen nodded, looking towards. Emerald Lightning in the distance. Instantly, its various data appeared before Wang Chen’s eyes. Name, Emerald Lightning, Age, 10 years, Bloodline. Thoroughbred Improved Breed, Strength, 94, Stamina, 96. The data of Emerald Lightning before him indeed matched Zhang Jigang’s analysis. It was a good contender for the championship. Its strength was 2 points less than Lightning, but its stamina reached an astonishing 96 points. That was quite impressive. Many racehorses can sprint quickly, but due to insufficient stamina, they can’t win the championship. With a stamina of 96 points, Emerald Lightning could maintain full-speed sprinting from the start. Lightning had a bit more strength, which correspondingly made its sprinting speed much faster. But it couldn’t match the stamina. Competing for the championship against Emerald Lightning carried some risks. Although Wang Chen wasn’t worried about the outcome of this race, it didn’t mean he would concede. Wang Chen carefully examined Emerald Lightning and shook his head. He then began to look at other horses. Xiangzhuo and Xiangjunling watched Wang Chen with relaxed expressions, eager to see which horse he would ultimately choose. Hua Fuching and Mrs. Guo were nervously glancing back and forth between Wang Chen and Zhang Jigang. The atmosphere on sight grew even tenser. Zhang Jigang shot a sidelong glance at Wang Chen, a mocking smile curling at the corner of his mouth. What’s wrong? Are you getting stage fright? There are only three minutes left until the betting deadline, you don’t want to just concede, do you? If you’re too scared to bet, you might as well admit defeat early, I can still show mercy and leave you a few fingers. He deliberately raised his hand to check the time, shaking his head and laughing Zhang Jigang strode up to Wang Chen, looking at him with a slight tilt of his head and said, I don’t have the patience to waste time with you. If you don’t even have this little bit of courage, then don’t pretend to be a big shot here. If you’re a man, be straightforward, don’t drag it out and make a fool of yourself. Kill. The black-clad men behind him understood the cue, stepping. forward in unison and shouting, their knives glinting ominously in the light. It sent chills down one’s spine. Time waits for no one. If you hesitate any longer, consider it your surrender. Zheng Jigang crossed his arms, his eyes filled with disdain and provocation. He was completely confident about this match. He couldn’t believe that this young man from the continent would continue to have such good luck. The Emerald Lightning was selected by an analyst from his team, a racehorse chosen through scientific verification. How could he possibly lose? Wang Chen nearly glanced at. Him, then turned his attention back to the other racehorses on the track. After looking at several horses, he found none satisfactory. Either they lacked strength or endurance, betting always carried risks, and there was no guaranteed win. In the end, Wang Chen’s gaze was drawn to a flawless white racehorse. This snow-white horse seemed like a spirit stepping out from the mist, its mane meticulously groomed by its owner. The white mane danced, lightly in the breeze, like flowing moonlight cascading down. It was completely devoid of any blemish, its white coat shimmering with a pearlescent. Sheen under the lights, each hair distinct and clear. Its long neck was elegantly raised, with smooth and firm muscle lines, strong and powerful limbs, and a well-proportioned skeleton. Its amber eyes were deep and bright, exuding an innate pride and agility, occasionally scanning its surroundings, as if declaring its regal presence. This horse seemed to radiate light, standing out among the other racehorses like a crane among chickens, instantly capturing all of Wang Chen’s attention. This was undoubtedly an extraordinary horse. Wang Chen opened his true vision again to look at this. horse, and its data instantly appeared before him. Name, Black Emperor Age, 5 years bloodline, Heka Thoroughbred Strength, 99 Endurance, 99. Wang Chen’s heart momentarily stopped, the data on this horse was astonishingly good. A horse reaches adulthood at 5 years old. And this pure white. Racehorse named Black Emperor had both strength and endurance reaching an incredible 99 points, which was already close to the limit. Normally, Heka horses are not known for their speed and may not compete well against some specially bred speed racing breeds in pure speed competitions. However, it balanced speed and endurance, making it a relatively well-rounded racehorse. But this was excessively balanced, both data points reached 99, which was absurd. The previous champion in the races had only achieved 96 points. Compared to Black Emperor, it was simply crushed. Most importantly, Black Emperor was only 5 years old, just reaching adulthood, and as it aged, its two values might even reach the maximum of 100 points. Wang Chen looked at it with admiration, this was truly a fine horse. If it were in ancient times, it would definitely. Be a coveted steed by various forces and with a good owner, like the legendary steeds such as Red Hair and Dilu, it could very well be remembered in. History. Wangqin picked up his tablet and found Black Emperor’s profile page, looking at the betting page. The odds for a win bet were 1 to. 88. The odds for placing in the top 30 were 1 to 59. Without hesitation, Wangqin directly placed a bet of 10 million Huaxiao. Coins on a win. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 10 million, doubling the cash back to 20 million. Ding. Congratulations to the host. For earning 1,000 system points. Is young master Wang out of his mind? Betting on such a horse? Jung Jigang strolled over with a champagne. Glass, his eye scanning Wang Chen’s tablet, suddenly bursting into laughter. He deliberately shook the crystal cup in his hand and laughed heartily. This black horse is just a twang newly bought by its owner, with no experience in official races. Even the owner himself didn’t dare to place. A bet. How dare you, you fool. Behind him, a few followers wearing sunglasses burst into laughter. Zhang Jigang finally let go of his worries. Wang Chen had bet on this horse and the Emerald Lightning was sure to win this race. You’re celebrating too early, maybe the fool is you? Wang Chen put down his tablet and chuckled lightly. The smile on Zhang Jigang’s face instantly froze, then erupted into an even more arrogant laugh, and his subordinates followed suit, laughing along. Wang Chen, do you think this is a movie? You think you can turn the tables with a horse that has never been on the racetrack? With this horse, how dare you compare it to Emerald Lightning? It doesn’t even deserve to be a stepping stone. His subordinates laughed, mocking Wang Chen’s overconfidence. Why don’t you just admit defeat? I’ll be merciful and let you off the hook, as long as you give me a few more billion Hong Kong dollars. Zhang Jigang tossed his hair, looking as if he was doing Wang Chen a favor. Xiang Zhao stepped forward and deliberately bumped into Zhang Jigang. Your mouth is even worse than horse manure. So what if it hasn’t been on the racetrack? When your ancestors started their business, didn’t they also start from scratch? You. Zhang Jigang was furious upon hearing this. What did this brat take him? For, comparing his ancestors to horse racing? Xiang Zhao ignored him, tilted his head to look at Wang Chen, and said, I believe in your judgment. Of horses. Since you’ve placed a bet, I’ll bet 10 million Hong Kong dollars too. I’ll bet on a win. That’s an 88 times payout, it’s a. Huge profit. Why don’t you place a bet too, so you won’t be short on cash when you have to pay 20 billion after losing the race. Let you be. Arrogant for a while, just pray that this little white horse can come in first or else don’t expect to leave here in one piece. Zhang Jigang’s veins bulged, his fists cracking as he glared fiercely at the group. Xiang Junling also picked up her tablet and followed Wang Chen’s lead, betting on the Black Emperor with 10 million, supporting Wang Chen with action. Meanwhile, the Guo couple looked down at their tablets, finger swiping across the screens. Given the current situation, betting alongside Wang Chen clearly offended Zhang Jigang and with his subordinates still around. They naturally wouldn’t confront Zheng Jigang. However, betting on Emerald Lightning also carried significant risk. Wang Chen had already proven his judgment in previous bets. The Black Emperor had a high chance of winning. He certainly wouldn’t waste money betting on Emerald Lightning. Moreover, Zheng Jigang currently held the advantage with more subordinates, making it impossible for Xiang Zhao and Wang Chen’s side to compete. Although the Wang family behind Wang Chen was incomparable to the Zheng family, the distance was vast and there was no immediate solution. The Xiang family. was also not simple, the situation could change unexpectedly. If he got too close to Zhang Jigang, it might not end well, and he wouldn’t look good. It was better to offend neither, that was the right choice. Wang Chen nearly glanced at him indifferently. He was not surprised by his choice. It was a wise decision. When God’s fight, mortals suffer, which is exactly the situation Guo Fuching was facing. In the conflict with Zhang Jigang, regardless of which side gained the upper hand in the end, the outcome was uncertain, and not taking sides was the best choice. Their relationship. Wasn’t that good, they were merely acquaintances, and Xiang Zhao only knew him from when he was an artist under Xiang Hua Xiang. Mrs. Gua sat beside him, looking tense, gripping his arm, her hands trembling. Guo Fuching shook his head helplessly. He was just a small star, he couldn’t afford to offend anyone. Before long, the final race of the night began. The atmosphere at the racetrack instantly tightened. The audience of tens of thousands fell silent, secretly cheering for the horse they had bet on. The starting gates on the track thundered open.28 racehorses burst forth. Like arrows released from a bow, their hooves thundering like a storm, kicking up clouds of dust. Emerald Lightning, the favorite to win, led the pack with a colorful torrent of horses closely trailing behind. Relentless pursuit. The crowd erupted with deafening cheers, the air in the venue seemed to boil. Wang Chin noticed that Black Emperor hesitated slightly the moment the gate opened, its white front hooves scraping the ground as if confirming the track beneath. Only after the other horses had run a short distance did it stretch its limbs and calmly chase after them. A wave of. Regretful murmurs rose from the stands. Zhang Jigang, holding a pair of binoculars, laughed loudly, mocking Black Emperor’s reaction on the track. What did I say? He shouted hoarsely at Wang Chen, a coward who even flinches at the starting line wants to compete with Emerald Lightning. Zhang Jigang looked for a hint of regret on Wang Chen’s face, but Wang Chen merely glanced at him indifferently, unfazed by the mockery. Damn, still not. Giving up at this point? Just wait to go bankrupt. Zhang Jigang felt a crack in his composure, his neck veins bulging with anger. At that moment. On the track, Emerald Lightning had extended its lead to five lengths, its figure gliding through the turn like a ghost. It was leading the second place. By an absolute advantage. Meanwhile, Black Emperor resembled a giant beast awakening from slumber, its head, which had been casually looking around. Now focused on the figure of Emerald Lightning, muscles rippling. Suddenly, its white body erupted with astonishing acceleration. It raced along the outer track, hooves flashing in a blur, the grass clippings kicked up turning into mist under the lights. The audience instantly stirred, many. gasping in astonishment. The rising chorus of gasps washed over the entire racecourse, with some people leaping to their feet, overturning their seats, while others cried out in shock. How is this possible? How can this horse run so fast? A young man in the front row, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, exclaimed in disbelief through his binoculars, How can a hecka horse have such explosive power? This is insane. This is simply against all logic. Yes. I’ve never seen a first-time competitor control the pace like this. God, its strides are so light, it doesn’t seem like it’s running. under a burden at all is this a genetic mutation i know hecka horses have outstanding endurance but this sprinting speed is even more exaggerated than thoroughbreds good good good xiangzua’s face turned crimson and he shouted three times grabbing the whiskey bottle on the table and taking a big swig the liquor spilling down his chin and soaking into his shirt collar without him noticing seeing black emperor charge out like an arrow he was so excited that he kicked over the table in front of him spilling more liquor everywhere charge for me xiangzua Roared at the track, his voice cracking, Black Emperor. Crush them for me. Look. What did I say? Emerald lightning is nothing, this is what true. Kingly presence looks like. Zheng Jigang’s hand holding the binoculars gradually tighten, his grip on the armrest turning his knuckles almost. Transparent. The figure of emerald lightning in his view began to blur, replaced by the white flash of Black Emperor, surging forward at a terrifying. Speed. Impossible, this can’t be happening. Zheng Jigang exclaimed in disbelief, it must be cheating. A racehorse can’t possibly have this. Kind of speed? Suddenly, at the moment Black Emperor and Emerald Lightning surged forward together. Xiangzhu leaned out of the window, shouting excitedly. His face flushed, he looked at Zheng Jigang and taunted, Zheng Jigang, open your damn eyes. Your Emerald Lightning is just trash. Ha ha ha. Zheng Jigang’s neck, bulging with veins, snapped towards Xiangzhu, his pupils burning with almost tangible rage, letting out a low growl like a cornered beast. He suddenly grabbed the crystal ashtray on the table and hurled it violently in Xiangzhu’s direction. What’s wrong? Can’t take. A loss so you want to fight? Xiang Zhao sidestepped just in time, mocking. Shut up. Zheng Ji Gang rushed to the glass window, what is the jockey? Doing? Speed up. Speed up. He pounded the railing madly, the sound of metal vibrating intertwining with the shouts of the audience creating a sharp noise. When Black Emperor completely surpassed Emerald Lightning, its white figure shot past the finish line like an arrow released from a bow, his voice abruptly stopped. He seemed as if his soul had been drawn out, a bit dazed. On the electronic screen, Black Emperor’s name pulsed in crimson font, showing real-time odds of 1 to 88. The stands erupted with thunderous cheers. Some people frantically tore at their bedding slips, while others wept with their heads in their hands and everything in between. Wang Chen saw the result and nearly shrugged. He was not surprised. That Black Emperor came in first. Although this was its first race, it might lack some experience and skill compared to other horses. However, these minor flaws could not overshadow its exceptional physical qualities. There was nothing to worry about, just running headlong was enough to surpass. Emerald Lightning. Wang Chen found himself liking this horse more and more. His bank card once again received 880 million Hua Xia. Coins. He felt little joy at winning again, only turning to Zhang Ji Gang, looks like you lost. First, bring out the 2 billion Hong Kong dollars. Then go kneel downstairs. I’ll tell you when you can get up. Xiang Zhao stepped onto the nearby leather sofa, looking down at Zhang Ji Gang with. An extremely arrogant smile, did you hear that, young master Zhang? Young Master Wang says you should kneel, so you better hurry up and lie down. Don’t make me do it. He picked up a wine bottle and smashed it down beside Zhang Jigang’s feet, the glass shattering and the wine splattering. Everywhere. What are you still standing there for? Xiang Zhao raised an eyebrow at Zhang Jigang’s lackeys. Didn’t you hear your master wants to pay? Up to avoid disaster? Hurry up and settle the bill. He put his arm around Wang Chen’s shoulder, his eyes full of excitement. Brother, your vision is truly amazing. If I follow you, I can walk around the racetrack with ease in the future. This news has to be posted on WeChat immediately. Let those bastards see what a real winner looks like. This is an 88 times payout, tonight is a huge win. As Xiang Zhao spoke, he took out. His phone and frantically snapped pictures of the electronic screen showing Black Emperor winning, completely carefree. He showed no concern for. What was to come? Zhang Jigang suddenly let out a sinister laugh, the day’s look from before completely gone, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. You want me to kneel? You should look at what you are. Before he finished speaking, the burly men in black behind him instantly spread out, their daggers glinting coldly. Beat them to death. Zheng Jigang roared, taking a step back, break these two bastards’ legs. As he watched, the men rush. Forward, Lung Fong stood like an iron tower in front of Wang Chen, gripping his baton tightly, staring intently at the thugs across from them. But, beside him, Wang Chen remained calm, tucking his phone into his inner pocket, his composed demeanor instantly soothing his restless heart. Boss, don’t. Worry, even if it costs me my life today, I won’t let you get hurt unless they step over my dead body. Long Phong said quietly, his eyes filled. With determination. During this time following Wang Chen, this retired soldier had no longer worried about money. His wife no longer had to work hard. At odd jobs facing disdain, his daughter could wear a brand new school uniform and stand tall in a prestigious school. All these changes were brought. About by Wang Chen. It was like a rebirth. Moreover, he had hardly encountered any dangerous situations while following Wang Chen, earning a high. salary every month wherever they went whether dining or staying in luxury hotels the quality of life was something that ordinary wealthy people could hardly compare to wang chen did not treat him as a subordinate bodyguard he gave him the respect he deserved lung phone was immensely grateful now was the time to repay that gratitude a cold glint flashed as the dagger sliced through the air lung phone spun around grabbing the wrist of the first burly man who lunged at him driving his knee hard into the opponent’s abdomen the sound of bones shattering mixed with a scream erupted He seized the dagger and slashed it across another thug’s arm. Blood splattered onto Xiangzhu’s shiny leather shoes, but this flamboyant, young master remained calm. He had seen such scenes many times before. What the hell are you all standing there for? Get in there! Xiangzhu shouted. At the bodyguards. More than ten bodyguards in suits rushed out, fanning out to encircle and firmly suppress Xiangjigang’s men. Xiangjigang’s. Thugs were forced back three steps by Xiangzhu’s bodyguards, but suddenly, they all pulled out electric batons from their waistbands, knives in there. Right hands and electric batons in their left, the buzzing blue light casting a green hue on everyone’s faces. They really had no sense of martial. Ethics, they were using technology. This battle was going to be tough, Lung Fong silently lamented. However, faced with this situation, he did not take. A step back, vowing to protect Wang Chen’s safety at all costs. Xiang Xiao, I’m sorry, but you’re going to die here today. The scar-faced burly. Man at the forefront sneered, the iron rod clashing with the electric baton, sending sparks flying. Who will die is still uncertain, who do you? Think you are to threaten me? Xiangzhu calmly took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, placed one in his mouth, and lit it. In this game. Today, it will definitely be your master who dies. Ha ha ha. Before his words fell, a flying knife grazed his hair and embedded itself into the pillar. Behind him, deeply lodged in the wooden post, Xiangzhu remained unfazed, taking a deep drag from his cigarette. Lung foam blocked a short knife that came from the side with his staff, catching a glimpse of Zheng Jigang retreating. Sweat trickled into his wounds, causing sharp pain. Chaotic battle, even with his skills, he couldn’t avoid getting hurt. However, these minor injuries were nothing to him and did not affect his combat. Effectiveness. Boss, you stay with Xiang Xiao, I’ll go catch that little fish. Before Wang Chen could respond, he shot towards the thug’s defense. Line like an arrow, swinging his baton to accurately hit the knee point of the obstructing thug. He gradually closed in on Zhang Jigang. Zhang. Xiao, that’s Wang Chen, the son of Wang Jiangwu from the Wang family on the mainland. Guo Fuching, seeing the fight break out, tried to mediate. Zhang. Jigang looked disdainful, completely ignoring Guo Fuching’s words. I don’t care whose son he is. In Hong Kong, the Zheng family’s fist is the law. Beat him up too. Guo Fuching’s face turned somewhat ugly, the worst thing he feared had happened, and there was no way to resolve this peacefully. Mrs. Gui nervously clutched his arm. The two retreated to the corner of the private room. At that moment, chaotic sounds and women’s piercing screams came from outside the window. Clearly, Zheng Jigang’s men had clashed with someone. The battle was fierce. Meanwhile, outside the private room, Zheng. Jigang’s men were continuously rushing in to support and Lengfong was gradually at a disadvantage. Even though they were carefully selected and battle-hardened, they could not withstand the tactic of overwhelming numbers. Lengfong darted left and right within the fray but could not break through the encirclement. Suddenly, he felt a sharp numbness in his lower back. Unbeknownst to him, an electric baton had been pressed against his back. Ah! The current spread from his back throughout his body and Lengfong instantly lost control, dropping to one knee, his vision blurring and doubling. The sounds of the chaotic battle, screams, and metal clashing surged like a tide. He struggled to lift his head and saw Zhang Jigang, hiding behind a protective circle of several men in black, a smug smile on his lips, beat him to death. Zhang Jigang shouted from a distance, holding a black pistol in his hand. However, he hesitated to pull the trigger. It would be one thing in another place but here was the official horse. Racing club. He would have to be out of his mind to shoot in such a place. Now that he had called so many people here to deal with Xiangzhu, he had. Already committed a grave mistake, if guns appeared, he would be in even more trouble afterward. IT is no longer 20 years ago, without gunfire. The relevant parties could still turn a blind eye, pretending not to see. After all, he is also the eldest grandson of the Zhang family, which holds significant power in this region, mingling in both political and business circles, with many big shots as their guests. Their influence is not to be underestimated. Today, whoever can take out that dog, Xiangzhuo, I will reward 3 million. For others, 1 million Hong Kong dollars each. Zheng Zhigang’s words instantly ignited the fury of the attackers surrounding them. Three daggers simultaneously lunged toward Leng Feng’s face. Leng Feng broke out in a cold sweat. In a critical moment, he rolled on the ground, kicking one person’s wrist and sending the baton sweeping, knocking. Down two more. He averted this crisis. He quickly got up and returned to Wang Chen’s side, bitterly shaking his head. Wang Chen looked at Leng. Feng, who was staggering in front of him, and his pupils suddenly constricted. He saw a gruesome wound carved into Leng Feng’s chest, blood gushing. out and staining his clothes. His left shoulder drooped unnaturally, clearly dislocated. Blood continued to drip from the baton in his right hand. Mixing with the spilled drinks and shattered glass on the floor, dyeing the carpet a terrifying dark red. You’re hurt like this. Wang Chen’s voice. Was heavy as he reached out to support him, but Lung Phong sidestepped to avoid him. Boss, don’t worry about me, find a chance to escape. Lung. Fang’s voice was hoarse, as if it had been sanded down, each word pulling at his wounds, making him gasp in pain. He struggled to stand straight, but. His legs trembled uncontrollably, the back that had been struck by the electric baton still tingled, and his vision blurred, as if he might collapse. At any moment, Xiang Zuo looked at Lung Fong who was on the verge of falling yet still stood like a wall in front of Wang Chen, a glimmer of admiration, flashing in his eyes. What a good man. Everyone put in some effort. Why are you all so weak? Did you get drained last night in bed? Xiang. Zuo picked up a wine bottle and smashed it hard against the nearest attacker. He wanted to rush forward but was firmly held back by Xiang Junling. Damn. Let’s fight, brothers. More than a dozen bodyguards exchanged glances and suddenly shouted in unison, turning defense into offense, the clash of electric batons and iron rods creating a thunderous sound that shook the ceiling, causing dust to fall. The attackers were caught off guard by the sudden counterattack from Xiangzhu’s bodyguards. However, they were numerous and quickly regrouped, and the two sides clashed fiercely. The battle grew increasingly intense. Xiangzhu was held tightly by Xiangzhu, veins bulging on his neck, and he violently shook off her hand, let. Go, watch me take down this idiot. Sister, don’t stop me. My brothers are all in, how can I back down? He picked up a broken wine bottle, the glass digging into his palm without him noticing. A fervent expression appeared on Xiang’s was face. Since childhood, he had loved martial arts. Learning from countless masters, and his family had started from fighting and killing. In earlier years, the Xiang family’s business even involved this aspect. Despite his usual carefree demeanor, he had seen blood alongside his father. He didn’t take the current situation to heart, instead, it felt particularly thrilling. Smack! Upon hearing this, Xiang Zhuling raised her hand and slapped Xiang Zhuo. The crisp sound was especially jarring. Amidst the chaos of battle, and Xiang Zhuo turned his head from the impact, five finger marks instantly appearing on his cheek. His hand holding the wine bottle froze in mid-air, incredulously turning to look at his sister. Wake up! Xiang Zhuling pinched the soft flesh at his waist, frowning as. She said, do you think this is still the time when you follow dad to collect protection fees? Her voice carried an unprecedented seriousness. Zhang Jigang has been prepared, there are at least hundreds of his men outside. The corridor is packed with his people, are you going to charge in? Head first? Xiangzui gasped for breath, wanting to retort, but suddenly deflated when he met his sister’s gaze. As a child, he often sneaked out to. Mix with his father’s underlings, every time, it was his sister who secretly bandaged his wounds. She also helped him cover up. After the family was. Cleared of suspicion, he never laid a hand on anyone again. At this moment, his sister’s hair was disheveled, and her pearl necklace had broken at some point, leaving her looking somewhat disheveled yet still standing in front of him protectively. Wang Chen also walked over to Xiang’s was. Side, helping him brush off the shards of glass from his clothes, his tone steady yet every word clear, a gentleman is like jade, one should not act. Recklessly. Charging in now is truly unwise. His gaze swept over the chaos on the ground, landing on Xiang Junling, sister is right, Zhang Ji Gang. is just waiting for you to charge in, don’t act impulsively. Inside the private room, blood was already splattered everywhere. The fighting was. Particularly brutal. More than 10 bodyguards, using sofas and other items, occupied advantageous positions, while only a few could come at them. At a time, making it difficult to break through. Wang Chin felt his blood boiling, wishing he could also rush in and stab a few times. What a waste. Of his superior physical abilities. But the people in front of him were all skilled fighters, experienced, if he charged in now, it would be a death. sentence in less than a minute he wouldn’t even know how he died with who knows how many electric batons stabbing him the words his grandfather and father had said echoed in his mind no matter what happens preserving oneself is the most important thing in the end wang chen slowly relaxed his clenched fist at this moment he desperately wished for a combat related skill his extreme physical condition had nowhere to be displayed which was incredibly frustrating out of more than 10 skills only basketball star had a bit of combat technique but wang chen couldn’t just find a basketball and use it to perform kunkwin. Wang Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit stifled. Although he advised Xiangzua not to go up and fight, having martial power and whether to use it were two different matters. If he knew a few martial arts, relying on his physical abilities, as long as he didn’t use a gun, those people would have to kneel before him. Xiangzua’s Adam’s apple bob, his hand gripping the bottle trembled slightly. Wang Chen reached out to press down on his arm holding the bottle, slowly saying, the noise outside is getting louder, your people should be arriving soon. Xiangzua stared at Wang Chan’s hand on his arm, coming back to his senses. The shouts and cries from the corridor surged like a tide, mixed with screams but could no longer stir the fervor in his eyes he regained his calm. Give me the bottle. Xiang Junling reached out. To snatch the half-broken bottle from his hand. She glanced down at her vibrating phone, a cold smile curling her lips, old San has already brought. People downstairs, hold on for another five minutes. Alright. Xiangzua shook his head somewhat disinterestedly, dismissing the thought of. Moving his limbs. Hua Fuching trembled slightly as he approached Xiang Junling, his tie askew around his neck and a bloodstain from an unknown source. On his forehead, he struggled to maintain his composure and asked with some concern, Miss Xiang, are your people here? They really seem like they can’t hold on much longer. More than 10 bodyguards had already fallen, while Xiang Ji Gang’s thugs kept surging in like a tide. The assault was relentless. What are you panicking about? Old sandspeople are already breaking through the building’s defenses. Hold on for another three minutes. Xiang. Junling frowned, speaking with displeasure. Her gaze swept over Guo Fuching’s disheveled appearance. Her tone tinged with disdain. If I had known, I wouldn’t have brought you, you’re just causing trouble. Guo Fuching’s face instantly turned pale, his lips trembling as he tried to argue, but, was interrupted by a loud crash. A few thugs nearly charged over, but fortunately, the bodyguards stopped them in time. Seeing this, Leng Fong charged. Forward again. Wang Chen reached out to stop Rafa, but the situation before him allowed for no hesitation. Leng Fong, drenched in blood, charged. forward like an arrow released from a bow, swinging his baton to create a gust of bloody wind, striking precisely at the wrist joint of a thug. The brittle sound of bones shattering mixed with screams erupted as more thugs surged in from all directions, surrounding him completely. Long Feng. Watch your back. Wang Chen’s furious shout was drowned out by the chaotic sounds of the fight. A burly man seized the opportunity to swing an iron. Rod, aiming a heavy blow at Long Feng’s skull. In a split second, Long Feng rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding the strike as the rod graced his. Scalpin smashed into the ground, sending shards of stone flying that cut into his cheek. He knelt on one knee, breathing heavily like a broken bellows, the bloodied baton creaking in his grip. Seeing this, Xiang Zhao’s eyes flashed with a fierce determination as he grabbed an ashtray from the table and hurled it towards Zhang Jigang. What the hell are you all doing? Hold the line. The ashtray thrown by Xiang Zhao was dodged by Zhang. Jigang, shattering against the doorframe into powder, startling Zhang Jigang into retracting his neck. Taking advantage of this moment, Leng Fong. Struggled to rise, propping himself up with the baton. His clothes were soaked in blood, turning a dark brown, and every breath sent sharp pain through. His broken ribs. His gaze swept over Wang Chen’s face. Suddenly, he grinned. A knife was thrust straight towards his chest. Long Feng couldn’t help but feel a surge of despair. The blade glinted coldly, just half a foot away from his chest. Wang Chen immediately panicked. Since Long Feng had started following him, he had been loyal and devoted, and Wang Chen had seen it all. How could he die here? Wang Chen glanced at a decorative vase. About the height of a person, picked it up and with all his might hurled it at the attacker. The vase, propelled by a whistling wind, smashed into. The knife wielder, who staggered and crashed into the wall, blood gushing from his forehead. He was nearly knocked out. Seizing the opportunity, Leng Fong lifted his leg and kicked towards the assailant’s knee. As the man fell to the ground, Leng Fong brought the batten down hard on his neck, knocking him out cold. Zhang Jigang across from him was left dumbfounded. That vase must have weighed at least a hundred pounds, and Wang Chen had thrown it like that. And it went so far. What kind of innate strength is this? Is he even human? However, the crisis was not over, amidst the chaos. An iron rod thrown from Wenos were landed near Wang Chen’s feet, nearly injuring his leg. Xiang Zhao grabbed Wang Chen’s arm and pulled him. Back, be careful, if you get hurt, Leng Feng’s efforts will be in vain. His gaze towards Wang Chen was filled with curiosity. Wang Chen usually looked. Just a bit more robust than him, but he never expected him to be this strong. They were at least 5 meters away from the entrance. He threw it. So effortlessly. No wonder he’s his brother. Impressive. Wang Chin saw that Lang Fong had escaped danger and regained his composure, but his gaze towards. Zheng Ji Gang grew increasingly cold. Hong Kong was indeed different from the mainland. The second generation rich were going all out, he didn’t. Know if there was some special grudge between him and Xiang Zhao, or if this circle was just inherently brutal. It was beyond his imagination. 2. No, back in the magic city, no matter the grudges in the second generation rich circle, as long as one wasn’t completely foolish, they wouldn’t go. For each other’s lives. Unless they didn’t want to stay in that circle anymore. There were unspoken rules to know when to stop, and the older generation. Could rest easy letting their children out, not overly worried about danger. Zheng Ji Gang, seeing that they had made no progress, felt. A bit irritated. He took out his phone, and when the other side connected, he roared, where the hell are you all? Why are there only so few of you? Xiang Zhao hasn’t dealt with a single person inside, damn it. It was hard enough to find Xiang Zhao alone, don’t let me down now. And why are? There’s still so many chaotic sounds coming from outside? Get in here right now. If you’re late, you’ll regret it. On the other end of the phone, screams and intermittent responses came through, Zhang. Young Master Zhang, the situation is not good. Several groups of people from the Xiang family have appeared out of nowhere and are storming the building, and, there are more and more of them. Brothers can’t hold on much longer. Useless. all of you are useless. Zheng Ji Gang’s forehead was bulging with veins and he smashed his phone against the wall, shattering it into pieces. He glared at his subordinates who were protecting him and shouted, you all go up too, hurry up and take them down. His subordinates felt their scalps tingle from the scolding and could only grit their teeth and roar as they charged forward. In the chaos, the sound of metal clashing grew increasingly intense. Although Xiang Ji’s bodyguards were well trained, they gradually found it difficult to cope against Zheng Ji Gang’s men, who had the advantage in numbers and were fighting with bloodlust. They couldn’t hold the defense. One bodyguard’s electric baton was knocked away by an iron rod, and immediately after, a gash was opened on his shoulder, blood soaking through his black suit. Hold on. Reinforcements are on the way. Xiang Ju Ling shouted loudly as she stepped over the debris. Her gaze was icy. Get your act together. If the Xiang family’s reputation is lost here, none of you will have it easy. Her voice pierced through the melee, and the bodyguards tightened their grips on their weapons. Hold on, everyone will. Get 1 million Hong Kong dollars afterward and the Xiang family will take care of your wives and children. I swear as the eldest son of the Xiang. Family, I will keep my word and your families will not be wronged. Xiang Zha said with a serious expression. As soon as he finished speaking, a low roar erupted from the private room and the bodyguard’s eyes ignited with fierce fighting spirit. Don’t worry, young master Xiang. The Xiang. Family has treated me well, even if we die here today, we won’t let these scoundrels succeed. One bodyguard, with blood streaked across his face. gritted his teeth and swung his baton, sending an approaching thug staggering back. The other bodyguards also had resolute expressions, not retreating. In the face of the enemy’s assault. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Zheng Jigang watched as the opposing defense was unexpectedly reinforced by these. Few words, and he roared in fury, whoever can charge in and take their heads, I will ensure they live the rest of their lives without worry. All of you, get in there, you bunch of fools. Although his thugs were tempted by the bounty, they couldn’t help but feel intimidated by the Xiang. Family’s bodyguard’s reckless fighting style and their offensive momentum clearly stalled. In the chaos, Leng Feng’s baton had become somewhat bent, and the wounds on his body were still losing blood but he continued to fight fiercely without retreating. Wang Chen looked at his swaying figure, anxious as fire, yet he knew that acting rashly at this moment would only complicate things. He bent down to pick up a broken chair leg, his gaze, scanning the surroundings warily, ready to respond to any sudden situation he was prepared to support wherever needed. Just then, outside the private. room, the corridor suddenly echoed with dense footsteps and shouts, sounding even more overwhelming than before. Zheng Zhigang’s face turned pale. While the bodyguards showed expressions of relief, even charging forward on their own, they knew that reinforcements were finally arriving. Instantly, they unleashed their fury in battle. Guo Fuching and his wife, who had been on edge, finally relaxed, exchanging glances and silently cursing. The conflicts among these wealthy families were truly a matter of life and death. His little heart could hardly take the strain. Zheng Zhigang, today, is your day to die. Xiangzha looked at him, a glint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes. He was genuinely angry. If they captured Zhang Jigang, this time, he would definitely give him a profound lesson. In the past, they had some conflicts and fighting was just part of it. Winning or losing was just a matter of skill. Even if he lost a few fingers to the other side, Xiangzha would have no complaints. But now Zhang Jigang actually wanted to drag Wang Chen into this and even intended to harm him. If something happened to Wang Chen here, the Xiang family would have to accompany the Zheng family to the grave, with no place to be buried. Xiang Junling smiled slightly, found an intact chair, and sat down elegantly, no longer. Worried about what would happen next. Sweat beads the size of beans trickled down Zheng Jigang’s forehead into his collar, and he nervously swallowed. Like a trapped beast in an iron cage. What are you panicking for? Everyone, stay steady. Zheng Jigang shouted hoarsely, his voice trembling. Involuntarily, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the cars continuously arriving outside the window and the crowd gathering in the distance. He suddenly realized that the reinforcements from the Xiang family were not just a few people, they had likely surrounded the building so tightly that not even a drop of water could escape. At this thought, his back was instantly drenched in cold sweat. Zheng Jigang watched as more and more people from the Xiang family rushed up the stairwell and he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of regret. Damn it! How did things come to this? Wasn’t he supposed to have the upper hand? Before seeking trouble with Xiang Zhao, he had specifically instructed his subordinates to block all the Members of the Ion Society fearing that news would leak and prevent these people from coming to Xiang Zhao’s aid. Although the Ion Society had gradually declined under official pressure over the years, it wasn’t just him who was in decline. All organizations in Hong Kong were facing a downturn. With their survival space severely squeezed, the Ion Society had managed to maintain a relatively good standing among the groups. In the early years, the old man of the Xiang family held a high position and was a favored disciple of the boss, engaging in special activities here. The Ion. Society once held an important status in this underworld. However, with social development and official crackdowns, the activities of the Ian society had been restricted. Yet overseas, especially in Southeast Asia, they were thriving. In this context, to be safe, the Xiang family had also split. Into two paths, Xiang Hucheng ventured into business, while the rest were left to his elder brother. The Xiang family was engaged in legitimate business, holding a significant share in the global jewelry industry. But money is never enough. True power is needed to safeguard that wealth. What is? True power? It goes without saying. He happened to be keen on violence and with the support of his family he had nurtured a group of loyal thugs, gradually developing them into a gang of hundreds. Zhang Jigang was full of confidence in himself. However, he wasn’t arrogant enough to confront the entire Ian society. He merely wanted to catch Xiang Zhao off guard, but he didn’t expect the reinforcements to arrive so quickly. There wasn’t any major conflict or misunderstanding between him and Xiang Zhao. What men have truly cared about since ancient times are nothing but fame and wealth. Modern society has long lost the soil for gang development, the organizations that remain here, like the once hundreds of thousands strong. Ian society now barely have a thousand members, if that. Normal people just want to work steadily and support their families. That is enough. Only. Some young people, or men who dropped out of school early and entered society, find such things thrilling, handsome, cool, enjoying the ability. to carve out a space for themselves just like those well-known big shots, relying on their own hands. Unfortunately, today’s society is no longer about violence. The authorities have been keeping a close watch on the Ian society over the years, turning a blind eye to some of his small maneuvers, due to his special interests. But a dead camel is bigger than a horse, replacing the Ian society’s status in the underworld is not that simple. As, the eldest son of the Xiang family, getting rid of him would be a huge boost to his reputation, and if he acted quickly, even if the Xiang family. reacted, it would be too late. Someone would protect him. For the Ian society, it would be a massive blow and the barely maintained dignity would vanish completely. The Zhang family could recruit some leaders from behind. It might not be impossible to take their place. The underground world of Hong Kong island would then be ruled by the Zhang family. But the current situation was not developing as he had hoped. The bodyguards that Xiang, Zhao Broad were too skilled, they couldn’t take them down despite the many people surrounding them and they had lost quite a few on their side. There were dozens injured. No wonder Xiang Zhao only brought a small number of people when he went out to play, it turned out they were all elite. Now Zhang Jigang and his group were surrounded by members of the Ian Society, and judging by the noisy sounds from outside the window, it seemed the Ian Society had come out in full force. This was getting serious. Zhang Jigang heard the sounds outside, although he couldn’t see the specific situation, he knew that things were becoming increasingly urgent, his temples throbbed, and the fingers gripping the gun turned white from excessive force. His suit was already soaked with cold sweat, his back pressed tightly against the icy wall outside the booth, his eyes fixed on the spirited Xiang Zuo not far away, commanding the bodyguards in battle. The shouts and cries from outside crashed against his nerves like a heavy hammer, and Zhang Jigang’s sanity gradually crumbled. There was no way this would end well. If the people from Ian came rushing in, he was done. 4. Since I can’t live, you all won’t have it easy either. Zhang Jigang suddenly roared, raising his gun and aiming at Xiang Zuo. The dark muzzle. glinted with a chilling light, ready to pull the trigger. Wang Chen noticed his movement. Watch out! Wang Chen shouted, using all his strength to lunge at Xiang Zuo. His strong body crashed into Xiang Zuo like a wall and the two fell heavily to the ground. The bullet grazed the tips of Xiang Zuo’s hair and burrowed deep into the wall. Xiang Zuo was momentarily stunned by the sudden impact and when he regained his senses, he realized he was pinned down by Wang Chen. Are you okay? Wang Chen’s chest heaved violently, a wave of fear washing over him. I’m fine. Xiangzhuo also broke. Out in a cold sweat. He never expected Zhang Jigang would actually dare to shoot. Was he out of his mind? This was an official horse racing event. How? Could he dare to do this? It was a complete slap in the face to the authorities. Was he not afraid of being sanctioned? Damn it. Zhang Jigang, seeing his shot miss, fell into a complete frenzy, continuously pulling the trigger and shooting at Xiangzhuo. Just as the bullets whistled towards Xiangzhuo and Wang Chen in a life or death moment, the blood-soaked Lungfong noticed the situation here. He suddenly burst out from the chaotic. Crowd. With a roar, he flipped the entire dining table in the center of the living room upright, the heavy solid wood surface blocking the barrage. Of bullets, sending wood chips flying and creating dull thuds. Quick, hide behind me. Lung Feng’s voice was hoarse, yet he maintained a defensive. Posture, his bloodstained back slightly arched as he turned his head to look ahead. Die, all of you. Zheng Ji Gang’s frenzied roar echoed. He constantly. Changed his shooting angle, bullets piercing through the edge of the table, carving deep furrows into the ground. Xiang Junling and Guo Fucheng finally came to their senses, screaming as they hid behind the sofa. Xiang Junling’s chest rose and fell rapidly, her face filled with fear. If Cheng, Jigang had shot at her just now, she would probably be a corpse on the ground by now. Sister Xiang, I’m scared, Wu Wu Wu Fang Yuan. Beside her tightly clutched Xiang Junling’s arm, unable to hold back her tears. Xiang Junling suppressed her fear, reaching out to tightly embrace. The trembling Fang Yuan, gently patting her back, don’t be afraid, I’m here. Hold on, our people will be here soon. Her voice still trembled. Slightly, but she tried to make it calm and gentle. Look, Zhang Jigang is about to be finished, we won’t be in any danger. The Xiang family is. Not so easy to bully, the third brother’s support will arrive soon, and Zhang Jigang won’t be able to stir up any trouble. She raised her eyes to. The bodyguards of the Xiang family who were entangled with Zhang Jigang’s men not far away, a fierce glint reigniting in her gaze. As she spoke, she. Gently wiped away the tears on Fang Yuan’s face, if you cry and ruin your pretty face, we need to cheer up. Once this storm passes tonight, I’ll. Take you out for some good food to wash away today’s misfortune. Turning to Guo Fucheng, who was equally shaken, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed. In Xiang Junling’s eyes, but she still said in a low voice, Brother Guo, take good care of your wife, be careful. Damn it. Zhang Jigang quickly, fired off all the bullets he had. The carbon-based lifeform stabilizer instantly turned into a firestick. He looked at Xiang Zuo and the others, who were unscathed, and angrily threw the gun to the ground. Zhang Jigang’s chest heaved violently. He suddenly bent down, picked up a curved knife. That had fallen to the ground, and roared with bloodshot eyes, Xiangzhuo. Today, it’s either you die or I die. He spat fiercely on the ground, brandishing his curved knife as he charged into the crowd, completely losing his reason. Fortunately, those around him were loyal, holding him back. Tightly. Let go of me. I want to kill him. Zhang Jigang was still struggling. Young Master Zhang, the situation is dire, we should run. Two of. His subordinates held him tightly, barely managing to restrain him. At that moment, a crashing sound reached Wang Chen in the other’s ears. Before. Long, the wall of a nearby private room exploded with a loud bang. Amidst the flying debris, a muscular man with a dragon tattoo on his shoulder burst. Out from the smoke, bare-chested. The corridor outside the building was filled with Zhang Jigang’s men. Choosing to break through the wall here was. Clearly a wise decision. Blood seeped from his body and he bore many gruesome scars, evidently having fought his way up from the lower levels of the. Building. He charged forward like a bulldozer, wielding dual knives. Following behind him were other similarly bare-chested muscular men. Young. Master Xiang. Sorry for being late. Upon reaching Xiang Zhuo and the others, he knelt on one knee, and the entire area of his green dragon tattoo seemed to come alive with the movement of his muscles. Blood continued to drip from the blade of the knife in his hand. I apologize for the delay. Please punish me. My brothers are clearing the building. None of these young family pups will escape. A deep voice echoed from a distance. Seven or eight more bare-chested muscular men charged into the private room, some with iron chains wrapped around their waists, others carrying long iron rods. on their shoulders, each covered in blood. The first man, a bald-headed figure with a tiger tattoo on his chest, wore finger claws on his hands. He slammed two of the thugs against the wall, pummeling them with his fists until they were bloodied and breathless. Brother Long, brother who, thank you for your hard work. Xiangzhuo looked at the newcomers, his tense body finally relaxing as he helped the tattooed muscular man up. He then nodded. At Xiangzhuo and charged forward again, his arms bulging with veins, the two long knives in his hands becoming mere shadows. As the cold light. Flashed by, Zheng Jigang’s subordinates didn’t even have time to scream before their throats were slit or blades plunged into their chests. Blood. Gushed out like a fountain, splattering large patches of crimson on the white walls. Damn it. The dragon and tiger duo have arrived, come protect. Me. Zheng Jigang was horrified, exclaiming in shock at the sight of the newcomers. Wang Chen looked at the blood-soaked yet imposing brother Long. And brother Hu, his eyes nearly popping out, his face filled with astonishment. Where did these two fierce warriors come from? He approached Xiang. Zhuan and whispered, they can take on Ten by themselves, they’re simply invincible. Incredible. His gaze was fixed on the bald-headed brother who, who, was ruthlessly beating the enemies with his bare hands, his pupils slightly constricting, both shocked and curious. Oh my goodness. Is this the, legendary martial artist? Wang Xin was very curious and activated his true sight to look at the two of them, their personal information instantly, appearing before him. Name, Xianglong, age, 26, height, 182 cm, charm, 90, physique, 97, favorability, 50, skills, Bagua sun and moonwing duel. Knives, advanced, Bagua palm, intermediate, Bajiquan, intermediate. Name, Xianghu, age, 25, height, 185 cm, charm, 85, physique, 99, favorability, 50, skills, Bajiquan, advanced, ironcloth shirt, intermediate. Wangchen looked at the data of the two, quite surprised. They were exceptionally fierce, charging through the crowd like superhumans. Among all the people he had encountered, their physical stats were the highest. Their physiques were nearly maxed out for humans, especially Xianghu, whose physique reached an astonishing 99 points. Especially with their advanced martial arts skills, each one seemed like something out of a martial arts novel. Awesome, right? Xiangzhu’s face was filled with pride. Awesome. Wangqin stared in shock as the two fought fiercely among the crowd. He turned to Xiangzhu, his voice filled. With astonishment, they are terrifying. Their physical abilities and skills are simply not those of normal people. Xiangzhu looked at Long Gu and Hu Gu, who were fighting valiantly, his eyes filled with pride. Long Gu and Hu Gu are orphans that our Xiang family adopted when they were young. Their martial arts talent far exceeds that of ordinary people, which is why we gave them the Xiang surname. He watched as more and more disciples of the Ian Society rushed down the corridor and said solemnly, when we adopted them, they were only 7 or 8 years old, living on the streets, when my father stumbled upon them. He felt sorry for them and brought them back to the Xiang family. He paused and continued, since then, they have trained hard under the masters in the gang, practicing in the winter and summer without a single day of laziness. The Xiang family has treated them well, and they have worked tirelessly for us. Over the years, I don’t know how much hardship they’ve endured or how many injuries they’ve suffered to hone their skills. Xiang’s was gaze fell on the gruesome scar on Xiang Long’s back. This scar was given to Long Gu when he was 17, while protecting my cousin from enemies, a knife that went deep into the bone. He almost lost his life that day. I see, Wang Chen suddenly. Understood, a surge of respect rising in his heart. Watching Xiang Hu break a strong man’s arm with his bare hands, the bloody scene was shocking. How did they train for this, killing without a blink? They are fiercely loyal to the Xiang family, having blocked countless open and hidden attacks. For us over the years. Xiang Zuo sighed, as long as the Xiang family is alive, we will never treat them poorly. They saved my life again this. Time, are they the legendary twin flower red sticks? Wang Chen asked curiously, observing their agile movements. Xiang Junling, seeing that the situation was under control, came over and said, in the underworld, those who can be called twin flower red sticks are top-tier tough characters, and Long Gu and Hu Gu are indeed the twin flower red sticks of our generation in the Ian society. She paused, pointing at Xiang Long’s flying duel. Blades and Xiang whose fierce punches, their title of twin dragons and tigers is not just for show, it was earned through countless hard battles, and life and death struggles. Twin dragons and tigers, Wang Chen raised an eyebrow, his gaze closely following the two figures. At this moment, Xianglong’s dual blades danced like a storm, blood splattering everywhere. Xianghu knocked down three men with a powerful shoulder charge, the veins on his muscular arms bulging like dragons. It was filled with violence. Xiangzhu nodded, his voice low and serious, in the gang, the red stick, represents the strongest fighters, and the twin flowers are the best among them. Longgu and Hugo have been handling gang affairs since they were. 15. Participating in no less than a hundred brawls. One wields dual blades with extraordinary skill, while the other fights with unmatched. Ferocity, establishing the formidable reputation of the twin dragons and tigers. People in the martial world fear them when they hear their names. If it weren’t for Long Gu and Hugo arriving in time today, the situation would have been dire. With them here, even if the Zhang family came out in. Full force, they would have to think twice. Xiangzhu’s eyes reflected both gratitude and admiration. Zhang Jigang, protected by his subordinates, felt a wave of fear. He had ordered his men to pull back and protect him as they retreated outside. The blood mist swirling from Xianglong’s duel. Blades and the dull thud of Hu Ji’s iron rod made his legs tremble uncontrollably. Form a human wall for me. Charge out. As long as you can. Leave alive, I, Zheng, will reward each of you two million Hong Kong dollars. He suddenly grabbed a bloodied thud beside him and shouted. With great rewards come brave men. The remaining thugs, with red eyes, huddled together, using their bodies to shield Zheng Ji Gang as they moved toward the corridor, some people raised chairs as shields, while others swung daggers wildly, as if mad, trying to tear through the defenses of these individuals. Downstairs, more members of the Ian society were coming up. A few subordinates who had fled back were covered in blood. Chaos reigned. Wah! Xianglong swung his twin blades, the blades emitting a crisp dragon’s roar, the might of the Bagua sun and moon-chasing wind blade instantly revealed. He lightly tapped his toes, and his whole body soared like a flying swallow, flipping into the air. The twin blades traced the shadow of the yin yang fish in the air and where the cold light reached the air emitted a piercing tearing sound with a slight twist of his wrist the person blocking him was instantly cleaved in two green water swimming dragon slash break for me siang long roared his figure like a ghost flashing into the gap in the human wall the twin blades alternated between separation and convergence with the left hand wielding the blade to deflect force while the right hand gripped the blade and thrust directly at the vital point breaking through three people’s defenses in the blink of an eye his steps aligned with the bagua Each leap evaded the enemy’s attacks, and the Azure Dragon tattoo on his back seemed to come alive with his vigorous movements, intertwining with the blade’s light and blood shadows to create a terrifying scene. Meanwhile, Xianghu was like a moving iron wall. He steadied his stance. The fierce power of the Eight Extremes fist erupted, facing the incoming machetes and electric batons, advancing instead of retreating. His right fist shot out like a cannonball, with a muffled bang, the attacker was sent flying. Then he surged forward, executing a series of elbow and knee strikes. Each blow carried the momentum of splitting mountains and shattering stones. Hoof. Xianghu growled, grabbing a thug by. The shoulder. He unleashed the famous top elbow strike from the eight extremes fist, smashing it down onto the ground, the thug’s sternum instantly. Caved in, collapsing to the floor. He caught the thrusting dagger with his bare hands. The sharp dagger merely left a white mark on his palm. A burly. Man in black picked up a machete, a fierce expression on his face as he swung it at Xianghu’s back. Xianghu flipped over and tackled the man down. His fists rained down like raindrops on the opponent’s face, and in an instant, it was a bloody mess. The two, one soft and one hard, maneuvered. Through the crowd. No one could stop them. Xianglong’s twin blades danced rapidly, targeting the vital points of his enemies. Xianghu’s punches and kicks were like thunder, unstoppable, and ordinary swords could not break through their defenses. Zhengjigang’s human wall was torn apart before. Them like paper, with gaping wounds, and desperate wails echoed in the corridor. A thug raised an electric baton, attempting to sneak attack Xiang. Long from the side. A flash of cold light. The twin blades evaded the electric baton like swimming dragons and with a twist of his wrist, Xiang, Long’s sharp blade instantly severed three of the opponent’s fingers. Ah ah ah. My hand. My hand. The severed fingers and the electric baton fell to the ground simultaneously and the thug collapsed, clutching his mangled hand, his shrill screams reverberating through the building. Xiang, who was besieged by three thugs, one of whom seized the opportunity and swung a nine-section whip fiercely at his neck. Open. xiang who advanced instead of retreating roaring loudly the power of the eight extremes fist erupted his fist heavily smashing into the middle of the iron chain the chain swept across the thug’s face instantly tearing half of it apart other ian society disciples assisted from the side they dealt with the remaining people help me help me a person stumbled and crashed into the wall their face covered in blood screaming hua fuching witnessing this bloody scene turned pale his legs trembling Before him, Xianglong’s twin blades sliced through iron like mud, and Xianghu’s fist wind split. Mountains and stones, each move accompanied by flying flesh, making his scalp tingle. Too, too ruthless, he felt a wave of nausea in his stomach. Leaning against the wall and dry heaving, but nothing came out, unable to stop the retching. Fangyuan sat slumped on the sofa. Her originally, delicate little face twisted into a pale hue. She covered her mouth tightly, her expression stiff. Suddenly, she turned sharply, unable to hold back. any longer, burying her head to the side and violently vomiting. The expensive silk hem of her dress was stained with vomit, her body uncontrollably. Convulsing, unable to make a sound. Don’t, don’t look, Wofucheng trembled as he reached out to cover his wife’s eyes to he couldn’t help but. Look, his gaze sharply narrowing as Xiang whose fist shattered the thug’s nose. Warm blood splattered at their feet, and Fang Yuan let out a scream. Curling up like a shrimp, his nails digging deep scratches into the genuine leather sofa. Wofucheng looked at the chaos around him, his back drenched. in cold sweat, making him feel a chill all over. Is this the foundation of an old family? With a single command, countless people rushed to serve, facing death as if returning home. This martial prowess was just like something out of a movie, with the sounds of their grunts echoing in his ears. It had its own sound effects, it was utterly ridiculous, if they weren’t still in the private room, he would have thought he had crossed into some fantasy martial arts world. This scene, beyond ordinary imagination, left Guo Fuching’s expression somewhat stiff. He had thought he had transcended. The class of ordinary people, stepping into the realm of the wealthy, belonging to that small group at the very top of the pyramid. He believed that. Even if he couldn’t compare to top families like the Xiang and Zhang clans, he had nothing to fear in front of them. It was just a matter of having. A bit more money than him. They were all mere mortals, and if they did something wrong, they would be punished. What was so great about that? This. Had always been his mindset, and it was also the reason he could chat and laugh with Xiang Zhao and Xiang Junling. Over the years, since starting his. own company and making money he had distanced himself from the simple halo of being a star after more than a decade he had accumulated a net worth of several billion hong kong dollars in the celebrity circle he was considered a successful figure now it seemed utterly laughable this world was far from the reality he perceived far from the mundane the martial arts masters from the movies had appeared before him and it somehow made sense after all he and society had been strong for half a century dominating a region With such strength, it was understandable. He now understood. How the Xiang family could stand firm for so many years. The confidence built from past successes in the business world vanished in an instant. At this moment, he felt like a lamb lost in a pack of wolves. So helpless. His inexplicably inflated confidence slowly shrank. Hua Fucheng looked. At Xiang Zhao, Xiang Junling, and the others with eyes full of awe. He held his wife’s hand, silently keeping a certain distance from them. Wang Chen’s face was quite calm, though he felt a bit uncomfortable. After all, the scene was too bloody. Since the last gunfight on the high seas, having witnessed such grand spectacles, he felt no fear of death. He was somewhat surprised by the martial prowess displayed by Xianglong and Xiang, who, but it was still within the realm of understanding, as long as it didn’t exceed human limits, there was nothing to be shocked about. After all, he himself was a transmigrator, and he had a mysterious system. The existence of martial arts in this world was not something he couldn’t accept. Wang Chen glanced again at the hellish scene, suddenly turning to Xiang Zhao and asking, is there really martial arts in this world? Wang Chen’s expression was very calm, but Xiang Zhao still detected his curiosity. What do you think they have cultivated? Xiang Zhao’s gaze swept over Xiang. Long and Xiang Hu, who were clearing the scene, and he chuckled lightly. Isn’t it so? Wang Chen was also a bit curious. From the information scene, through the eye of truth, both of them practiced martial arts. Bagua knife. Ba Ji Quan, these things from movies had appeared. What else could? They be if not martial arts? Was this kid trying to fool him? Actually, martial arts do exist, but they aren’t as magical as you imagine, Xiang Zhao. Said, watching their agile movements with a hint of envy in his eyes. In modern society, we call these ancient martial arts. There are quite a few. Masters in Ian society who have a few unique skills. I was curious when I was young too, and practiced for a while, but unfortunately, I lacked. Talent and couldn’t endure hardship. You see how powerful they are, with just a wave of their hand, someone is either dead or injured, yet behind. It all lies in effort that ordinary people can’t even imagine. Brother Long moves like a ghost, amidst so many enemies, very few can truly touch his. Body, he’s incredibly formidable. It seems effortless, but this is the result of getting up at 4 in the morning every day to practice stances. Walking on plum blossom stakes with lead weights tied to his legs, for decades without change. Later, I heard that after reaching a certain. Level, Brother Long was taken to the high mountain canyons in Yunnan and Guizhou to train on the cliffs. Tell me, is this something an ordinary. Person can endure? Wang Chen shook his head. In modern society, where material desires run rampant, let alone training on the cliffs of desolate mountains, how many people can even manage to get up at 6 in the morning on time? Not to mention 4 in the morning. After his rebirth, he thought. About maintaining a healthy body and keeping a good routine, he did manage to stick to it for a few days. But after obtaining the system’s extreme physique and solidified attributes, he no longer worried about his health and became addicted to wine and pleasure. Unable to extricate himself. Xiangzhu bent down to pick up a broken knife, playing with it casually in his hand, and then there’s brother who, did you notice how many hits he took? Yet he caught the blade with his bare hands without a scratch? Impressive, right? Impressive. Wang Chen raised his finger, affirming. He had. Long seen Xiang who’s terrifying physical prowess, according to the system panel, his physique was only 98 points, far beyond that of an ordinary person, but still within the realm of the average. Yet the sticks hitting him had no effect, he remained unfazed. He even caught the blade. With his bare hands, the panel showed that Xiang who practiced ironcloth, which made him ponder. Actually, it’s not that mystical. Xiang’s was shook. His head and said, brother who practices a martial art you’re quite familiar with, it’s often seen on TV, called ironcloth. This skill has its intricacies, it’s a traditional hard qigong. To see results, one needs to undergo impact training, initially using softer objects to strike the body. And once the body gradually adapts, then use a wooden stick for striking. Later, it will upgrade to an iron rod, supplemented with acupressure. Traditional Chinese medicinal meals and secret tonics. If you persist like this, you can be like Brother Hu. Xiangzhuo continued, even if you completely master this martial art, it still wouldn’t allow you to catch a blade with your bare hands. You must be kidding. Wang Chen instinctively retorted, I saw it with my own eyes, and you’re saying it’s impossible? Are you trying to fool me? You might not know this. What do you mean? Xiang Junling interrupted. Don’t listen to Xiangzhu bragging. The truth is quite simple. If you look closely, Xianghu never directly uses his palm to catch the blade. There’s technique involved. Through special techniques, he releases force and redirects energy, combined with years of training. His palm bones have grown denser and he has thick calluses. Even if you poke him with a needle, it would be hard to penetrate. So that’s how it is. Wang Chen nodded upon hearing this. Looking at Xianglong and Xianghu who were gradually closing in on Xiangjigang, he began to see some insight. The aura of martial arts masters around them instantly faded. Instead, he felt a bit sorry for them. Years of practice had made their lives as disciplined as that of the elderly. It’s truly hard for an ordinary person to persist. Sigh. Xiangzhu looked at the blood-soaked yet still imposing Xianglong and Xianghu, suddenly chuckling softly. A complex expression flickered in his eyes, to say I’m not envious. Would be a lie. I’ve trained with them since I was young, and I even pestered the martial arts master to teach me ironcloth, thinking it would be. Impressive to catch a blade with my bare hands. But now the world has changed, no matter how tough the bones, they can’t withstand a bullet. Just like that madman Jung-ji gang, if it weren’t for the gun being empty. What if Long-gu and Hu-gu are strong? In ancient times, a hero wielded a sword alone, traveling the world with elegance, relying solely on cold weapons. But now even the street thugs know that the most important thing in society is no longer martial arts but money and guns. Xiangzhu turned to Wang Chen, his gaze filled with a hint of emotion. What do you? Think our Xiang family has gone through all this trouble to cultivate these martial artists for and to maintain the Ian society? It’s just. To leave the Xiang family with a final trump card. Wang Chen nodded regretfully. The heroes have aged. No matter how high one’s martial arts skills are, they can’t compete with a gun that rolls off the assembly line. Decades of hard -earned martial arts have become useless in modern society and, in a conflict, one even worries about accidentally killing someone and ending up in prison. It’s truly a bit tragic. But just as Wang Chen was. Feeling disappointed, Xiangzhu mysteriously leaned closer to his ear and whispered softly. The old masters in the society had said that the martial world is not that simple and ancient martial arts are not that simple either. Skills like Xianglong and Xianghus might only scratch the surface of ancient martial arts. There are indeed masters in the world. As for how high they are, he doesn’t know, nor has he seen them. In his youth, he was very curious about these things. He had asked the masters in detail. But every time, those masters who usually cared for him would just smile and Changed the subject. Xiang’s was seriously suspected that they were hiding something from him. But in the end, he could only let it go. The injured. Bodyguard and Leng Fong were treated by the arriving disciples of the Ian society. This time, Leng Fong was severely injured. He had three stab wounds. On his thigh, and his chest and abdomen were also heavily injured, with some burn marks. It was likely from being hit with an electric baton. Leng. Fong lay half reclined on the sofa, his face pale as paper, the wounds on his body torn and bleeding, revealing ghastly injuries. Lung Phong, how are you? He crouched down, his voice filled with concern. Lung Phong, who had been forcing himself to stay awake, suddenly relaxed when he heard the question. The intense pain from his thigh surged like a tide, mixed with the burning sensation in his chest and abdomen, causing his vision to darken. Boss. I’m fine, these injuries won’t kill me. Cold sweat instantly covered his forehead, but Lung Phong gritted his teeth, forcing out a pale smile, not wanting Wang Chen to worry. Yet the excruciating pain in his body made him unable to suppress a muffled groan. His hands were tightly. Gripping the sofa, his knuckles turning white from the strain, and veins bulged on his forehead. Watching Xianglong and Xianghu fiercely taking. On a hundred opponents not far away, Lengfeng’s gaze dimmed. He recalled his own bloody battle, nearly collapsing, and thought if he had skills like theirs, Wangchen wouldn’t be in such danger. Are you really okay? Wangchen pressed down on his shoulder as he tried to get up, feeling blood. On his hand, don’t force it. Lengfeng lowered his eyelashes, avoiding his concerned gaze, his throat tightening. It’s my negligence, if I could. Be stronger, you wouldn’t have to take such a big risk. I’m really too far behind compared to them. Alright, don’t think so much. Without you tonight, I might have died here. You should take care of your injuries and rest at home for a while. Wang Chen had Xiangzhu find a subordinate to help take him to the hospital. Long Feng’s loyalty deeply moved Wang Chen. At a critical moment, he didn’t falter. He’s a real man. It was worth the high salary he offered. Fortunately, he had always treated the bodyguards well. Wang Chen tried to meet their needs financially, maintaining. the highest salary in the industry. Now it seems, it was indeed worth it. He took out his phone, clicked on the banking app, and transferred 5 million Hua Xia coins to Leng Feng’s account. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 5 million, doubling the cash back to 10 million. Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning 500 system points. This money was what he deserved, a compensation from Wang Chen. A mere 5 million. Could make life a little better for the Leng family, giving them peace of mind. That was enough. If later on, he had to go to the hospital and found out his health was poor, no matter what kind of lifeline phone led, he would take full responsibility. He had plenty of money. As long as they were loyal to him, he wouldn’t be stingy. The shouts and cries in the corridor gradually thinned out. A group of defeated soldiers protected Zheng Ji gang, fleeing like startled birds. Xianglong’s dual blades danced, and wherever the light of the blades reached, blood splattered, and screams echoed. No one could stop him for even a moment. He moved through the crowd like a ghost, the Azure Dragon tattoo on his back seeming to come alive with. Every fierce movement, each swing of his blade representing a life lost. Trying to run? Xianglong sneered, his figure flashing, the dual blades. Crossing to emit a cold light, instantly cleaving a thug attempting to escape in half. Blood gushed out, splattering against the wall, creating a shocking scene. There was no time for a scream. His gaze, sharp as an eagle’s, locked onto Zheng Ji Gang who was desperately trying to flee. With a powerful push of his legs, he shot forward like an arrow released from its bow. On the other side, Xianghu was in the heat of battle. With the cooperation of the disciples from the Ian society, he fought barehanded, fully unleashing the fierce power of the eight extremes fist. A thug wielding. A steel pipe swung his weapon at him, but Xianghu advanced instead of retreating, delivering a heavy punch to the thug’s chest. Ah! With a crack. The thug’s sternum instantly caved in, and he flew back like a kite with a severed string, crashing against the wall and collapsing to the ground. He gasped heavily, clearly on the verge of death. Refreshing, Xianghu shouted, excitement gleaming in his eyes. He turned his body and lunged at another thug, dodging him sideways. Xianghu grabbed the blade with his reverse hand, his arm muscles bulging as he forcibly broke the knife, then smashed his fist into the thug’s face, instantly turning it into a bloody mess. At this moment, Xianglong had already broken through the heavy encirclement of Zhang Jigang’s subordinates and stood before him. He grabbed the collar of Zhang Jigang’s shirt, lifting him like a chick, with a Dual blades pressed against Zhang Jigang’s throat. Oh. Isn’t this young master Zhang? Where do you think you’re running to? Zhang Jigang’s face. Turned pale, his legs trembling uncontrollably, his eyes filled with fear and despair. A few drops of an unknown liquid even dripped from the soles. Of his shoes. Don’t do anything reckless. I am Zhang Jigang. If you dare to touch me, the Zhang family won’t let you go. Zhang Jigang shouted. Trying to threaten Xian Long let you go? Xian Long scoffed, bursting into laughter. Xian who swept a kick that sent a thug flying his. chest heaving violently. He caught sight of Xianglong already capturing Zhang Jigang, a wicked smile spreading across his bloodstained face. If you don’t want your boss to die, then stop. Whoever dares to move again will end up like this iron rod. Xianghu’s voice was particularly loud, resonating like a heavy hammer against everyone’s eardrums. He suddenly smashed the iron rod against the wall, causing the entire corridor to vibrate. The iron rod broke with a loud crack. The thugs, who had been fighting fiercely, instantly froze, their hands gripping their weapons trembling. uncontrollably they were fighting so hard for wealth and power now that their boss had been captured who were they fighting for clang someone was the first to drop their weapon and the sound of weapons hitting the ground spread like a domino effect the noise was particularly jarring in the corridor don’t don’t kill me a bloodied young man suddenly knelt down his knees hitting the tiles with a dull thud as he pleaded i have elders above and children below it’s all my fault for being ignorant please let me go soon the scene was filled with pleas for mercy tears Streaming down faces, Xiang Hu wiped the blood from his face, barefoot stepping over the chaos, each step crushing broken glass and congealed flesh. He. Walked to the center of the crowd, looking down at the trembling people, his imposing aura from practicing Bagua Zhang suffocating them, kneel down. Hands on your heads. Behave yourselves, and I might spare your lives. If anyone dares to play tricks, I’ll crush your bones inch by inch. He suddenly. Clenched his fist, the knuckles cracking like popping beans, grinning savagely at them. The thugs exchanged glances. They immediately knelt down. hands on their heads brother who is mighty brother who is mighty the disciples of the ian society immediately raised their weapons cheering then with swift hands and feet they bound these people up after counting there were 195 survivors all injured many were severely wounded fainting or directly meeting the king of hell not included in the count and not worth mentioning on the ian society’s side there were dozens with minor injuries and eight seriously injured this was thanks to xiong long and xiong who’s superhuman combat power Otherwise, the casualties would not have been so simple. Meanwhile, on Xiangzhu’s side, five bodyguards were dead, and the rest were mostly severely injured, already sent with Lengfong to the best hospital in Hong Kong for treatment. Such casualties were simply outrageous. Even though the Ian Society had an absolute numerical advantage, crushing the enemy, the final outcome was still hard to predict. This was not child’s play. This was a life-and-death struggle. Hundreds of people were surrounded by the Ian Society inside the building, with no way to retreat, and under Zhang. Gigang’s orders to fight back to the death, their combat power could not be underestimated. In ancient times, warfare emphasized surrounding three and leaving one out. Why? Because when surrounding the enemy, intentionally leaving a gap gives them a way to escape, with the clear purpose of preventing the enemy from being cornered and fighting to the death. The benefit of this approach is to reduce casualties on one side, achieving the greatest results at the lowest cost. This strategy can be applied in business or other areas. Always leave a line. However, the E in society still. did this firmly surrounding the building, not letting a single enemy escape. This was absolute confidence in themselves, believing they could take these people at the lowest cost. The reality was that the Ian society indeed achieved this, with very few casualties. One could only say that. They were a well-established organization, with countless experts among them. Xiang Long dragged the still-struggling Zheng Ji Gang in front. Of Xiang’s woman Wang Chen, who was rolling his eyes from being choked, his feet kicking helplessly in the air. Break one of his arms first, so he. understands the situation. Wangchen scrutinized Zhang Jigang, shaking his head as he spoke. Xianglong threw Zhang Jigang to the ground, frowning. As he asked, who are you to teach me, Xianglong, how to do things? Xianglong. Xiangjunling shouted sternly, this is young master Wang, a distinguished guest of our Xiang family. Listen to what young master Wang says, treat it as our intention, and just follow his orders. Xianglong’s bloodstained hand trembled, upon hearing Xiangjunling’s words, he froze. He looked up in shock at Xiang Junling and Xiangzhuo then shifted his gaze to Wang Chen. This is the Wang Chen, young master Wang that the old master mentioned before coming? So handsome? He couldn’t help but be a bit surprised. Xiangzhuo also spoke up, brother Long, young master Wang is my brother and also a distinguished guest of our Xiang family, so let’s do as he says. Yes, young master. Xiang Long no longer hesitated, nodding. He was merely the sharpest knife of the Xiang family, but no matter how. Sharp the blade, it must heed the wielder’s command. You, you can’t touch me, my dad is Zhang Xiong, if you dare to touch a single hair on me. My dad won’t let you off. Zhang Jigang coughed a few times while clutching his neck and quickly spoke up. Xiang Long glanced at the expressions. Of Xiang Zuan and the others, sneering coldly. He waved the long knife in front of Zhang Jigang, the blood on the blade dripping onto the terrified. Face of his opponent, Zhang family? You can’t act wild here today. Before Xiang Long finished speaking, a flash of cold light appeared. The Long. Knife accurately pierced Zhang Jigang’s right arm, precisely severing the tendons, and a scream instantly echoed throughout the room. Don’t let him. Pass out just like that. Wang Chen watched this scene with great interest, finally showing a hint of a smile on his face. He leaned closer to Zhang. Jigang’s twisted face, his voice gentle as if coaxing a child, your father might be quite powerful in Hong Kong, I’ve heard a bit about it, but. Wang Chen’s expression darkened, a half smile on his lips as he said, mentioning that in front of me won’t do you any good, you. You will regret this, you will definitely regret it. I will kill you. Zhang Jigang writhed in pain, veins bulging on his forehead, staring fiercely at Wang Chen, wishing he could devour him. How many years has it been? In this land, the Zhang family has many enemies and many allies. Who dares to treat him like this? Even the families that are most at odds with the Zhang family wouldn’t dare to treat Zhang Jigang this way. Losing an arm is like giving the Zhang family a hard slap. He is the eldest son of the Zhang family and they will not let this go easily. Even the deeply rooted Xiang family will face retaliation. Not to mention this country bumpkin in front of him who will only die a more miserable death. Ha! Ha! You’re all going to die, especially you, I want you to die without a burial place. Zheng Jigang blared at Wang Chen, his eyes filled with a bloodthirsty light. Let’s wait and see. Let me see what other tricks you have up your sleeve. Wang Chen stood up, dusting off his clothes, and said nonchalantly. It can be. Said without exaggeration that Wang Chen has the capital to be unconcerned, and he has the confidence. The Wang family is an original. stock family, and after decades of development, it has long become a behemoth that ordinary people can hardly imagine. The terror of. The Wang family. Even Wang Chen, the heir, has not yet figured out the ins and outs of his own family, let alone outsiders. Moreover, this Shang-Chi gang still doesn’t know who he is facing, right? How ridiculous. Suddenly, footsteps approached from a distance. Xian Yu walked up from the staircase, followed by several subordinates from the Yi. And society. He glanced at the blood and severed limbs on the ground, remaining expressionless and unconcerned. Then he noticed Zheng Zhigang collapsed on the ground and exaggeratedly said, oh, isn’t this the famous young master Zhang? How did you end up like a dead dog? Zheng Zhigang glared at him fiercely, feeling inexplicably guilty, and didn’t dare to speak. Xiang Yu is notorious for being ruthless. Xiang Zua. And Wang Chen might not take his life, but Xiang Yu is not that simple. He is a madman who never considers the consequences of his actions. Even if he really killed him, it wouldn’t be out of the question. Big brother, what happened to you? How did you end up like this, Xiang Yu looked at the bloodstains on Xiang Zuo and his somewhat disheveled figure, teasing, aren’t you always concerned about your image? Why do you need me to save you, ha ha ha? Stop with the sarcastic remarks. You try being surrounded by hundreds of people, and let’s see how long you can hold out. A hint of fatigue and fear flashed in Xiang Zuo’s eyes. This time, it was truly a stroke of luck, it was all thanks to more than a dozen bodyguards sacrificing themselves to protect him that he managed to hold on until reinforcements arrived. If anything had gone wrong in between. With Xiang Yu arriving so slowly, he would only be able to see his corpse. He was just about to speak, Xiang Yu had already turned to Wang Chen, his previously nonchalant demeanor now replaced with seriousness as he said, Wang Chen, are you alright? If this guy hurt you, I swear I’ll make him pay. Wang Chen brushed off the non-existent dust from his sleeves, casting a meaningful glance at Zheng Ji Gang, and suddenly chuckled. Lightly, with the Xiang family here, of course, I’m fine. That’s good. Xiang Yu sighed in relief. He suddenly turned around and kicked out fiercely. Ah, Zheng Ji Gang hadn’t. reacted yet when his abdomen took a solid hit. His body curled up like a shrimp, a metallic taste surged in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with broken teeth. What are you pretending to be mute for? Xiang Yu grabbed Zheng Jigang’s hair, yanking him up from the ground, and slapped his swollen cheek, you used to dare look down on me. And I hadn’t had the chance to deal with you yet, but now it’s too late. Waste. Now you know fear? Xiang Yu suddenly leaned in, his nose almost touching Zheng Jigang’s terrified eyes, dare to touch my older brother and sister, and Wang Xiao? You Zhang Jigang must be tired of living. Zhang Jigang let out a painful scream. He wanted to fight. Back, but the pain coursing through his body made him tremble uncontrollably. Xiang Yu. Don’t go too far. Before Zhang Jigang could finish his sentence, he was struck in the temple by an elbow, and countless stars exploded in front of his eyes. Too far? Xiang Yu sneered, his shoe heavily stomping down on Zhang Jigang’s recently disabled right arm. Listening to the heart-wrenching screams, excitement glimmering in his eyes. Today, I’ll let you know that offending the Xiang family is a luxury even in death. He suddenly released his grip and Zhang Jigang collapsed to the ground, convulsing. Xiang Yu’s nonchalant demeanor made it seem as if he had just crushed an ant. Someone’s coming out. That person isn’t Zhang Jigang. Does the Ian society have such guts? Aren’t they afraid of Xiang family’s retaliation? Look at the people behind, the entire generation of the Xiang family is here. This is going to be a good show. This matter isn’t that simple. The Ian society has messed with the Zheng family’s direct descendant. It’s bound to stir up trouble. I heard the old man of the Zheng family just had tea with some big boss last month. Could this be the Xiang family establishing their authority? But, this is really exciting. Yeah, who would have thought that in the 21st century, we could still witness such thrilling scenes. Wang Chan and his group walked out of the building. Xiang Long inserted his twin blades behind him, following closely, his eyes sharp as he scanned for any potential dangers. Xiang who dragged Zheng Ji gang, who looked like a dead dog, as thousands of people marched out. They were also escorting bound individuals. The previously somewhat noisy scene instantly became even more agitated. Some people boldly looked at these individuals, whispering and pointing, but they had to lower their voices, fearing unnecessary trouble. The entire building of the horse racing club was firmly guarded by the disciples of the Ian society. Most were young people in their 20s or 30s, with at least a few thousand present, a sea of black. They were bare-chested. adorned with tattoos. In their hands, they held chilling blades. When Zheng Jigang’s people charged in, most of the crowd in the venue of tens of thousands had already left, afraid of getting involved. But a small portion of the bolder ones remained, still numbering in the thousands, watching from a distance. Some people took out their phones to take pictures, but were forcibly stopped and had their phones snatched away by the Ian society members. These people weren’t afraid at all. After all, this was modern society, they weren’t worried about their safety and looked provocatively at these individuals. A few younger brothers brandished their knives, looking furious but without Xiang Yu’s orders. They didn’t dare to act recklessly. They could only glare at them. After Wang Chen stepped out, he looked up at the sky above, above the building, more than a dozen helicopters, hovered several hundred meters in the air. A man in combat gear leaned out and greeted Wang Chen. Wang Chen simply smiled in response. Then he gave Wang Chen a standard salute. And the helicopters quickly sped away into the distance. Brother, are these people your backup? Xiang Zhao was shocked at the sight. Just one glance was enough for him to know. That these were military personnel, and they were from a special operations team. Armed and ready, they had come with a mission, no need to guess. They must have come for Wang Chen. With so many people on sight, only Wang Chen had the qualifications and the background to mobilize them. It’s normal for my family to worry since it’s my first time away. From home this far, Wang Chen shook his head and smiled. Before the two sides began to clash, he had received a message from Wang Jianguo via Faixin. It simply said, do as you wish. He understood instantly. His father had known the details of his situation the moment it happened, and he was aware of Zhang Jigang bringing hundreds of thugs. However, he didn’t worry about Wang Chen’s safety, he just told him to do as he wished, to follow his heart. Wang Chen recalled what Wang Jianguo had said before, as long as reason was on. His side, even if the sky were to fall, he would be there to support it. Besides, the sky wouldn’t fall. The Zhang family was nothing to worry about. Wang Chen no longer had any concerns, instead, he hoped Zhang Jigang would do something outrageous. Things unfolded as he expected, the more than a dozen helicopters that had just flown away were likely called in by Wang Jianguo. Since Wang Jianguo told him to do as he wished, he must have had some confidence. With so many helicopters arriving, it was obvious how many people and how much equipment they brought. Even if something went wrong, any martial arts experts among Zheng Jigang’s men would only become live targets in the face of absolute firepower. Xiang Zhao looked on with envy, staring at the helicopter formation gradually disappearing into the clouds. No wonder you’re not afraid at all. He forced a bitter smile. Somewhat regretful, if I had known you had called in helicopters, I would have let them fire a couple of shots, at least I could have seen a grand scene. Wang Chen, why don’t? You take me as your little brother? Following you is way more impressive than being in the Xiang family. Xiang Yu had somehow sidled up to Wang Chen, his eyes filled with both. Awe and a hint of envy. Xiang Junling lightly elbowed her brother, but her gaze was also fixed on Wang Chen. As the only daughter of Xiang Hua Xiang, she had seen too many so-called young masters from prominent families, and now, looking at Wang Chen’s nonchalant demeanor, she suddenly realized that the so-called background of the Xiang family was nothing, but child’s play in front of these true giants. Xiang Junling took a deep breath trying to calm the emotions surging within her. At that moment, manager Li, drenched in sweat, pushed through the crowd, his suit collar askew, and his tie nowhere to be found. There was no time to worry about appearances. Behind him, a wall of over a hundred security guards. was on the verge of collapse, while the onlookers in the distance surged forward like rising tide, the flashes of cameras and the rising murmur of discussions nearly threatening, to topple the building. Young master Xiang, and all the other young masters, managerly glanced at Zhang Jigang, who looked like a dead dog, grabbed Xiang Zhao’s sleeve, his voice tinged with desperation. I beg you all to leave quickly, the head of the Xiang family has heard the news and is already on his way here. Please don’t fight here. Just… In time, let’s settle old scores along with new ones, Xiang Zhao didn’t take it seriously, turning to his younger brother and asking, what’s the situation with our father? Why hasn’t he arrived yet? Father contacted someone right away and sent me ahead, Xiang Yu shrugged and smiled. I just didn’t expect this kid to be so weak, he passed out. After just a few hits. Otherwise, I really want to see what it looks like when the famous Zheng family heir, Zheng Jigang, cries his heart out in front of so many people. Wang. Chen also felt a bit regretful. He had originally planned to have some fun, but this had interrupted the perfect mood. Young master Wang, I’ll take my leave now. My wife was a bit startled and might need to go home to recuperate. Guo Fucheng stepped forward with his wife. Fang Yuan seemed to be stimulated, burying herself in his embrace, too afraid to look up. Guo Fucheng witnessed the confrontation among these top-tier heirs. He didn’t want to stay here for even a minute longer. On Xiang Yu’s side, with a few martial arts masters, it was manageable, but now he realized that Wang Chen was the most formidable. Thousands of miles away, the Wang family had already extended their reach here. helicopters, and special forces had been deployed, all to ensure Wang Chen’s safety. He was still feeling a cold sweat all over. If something urgent had happened to Wang Chen just now, these people would probably have opened fire immediately. In the chaos he truly didn’t know if he could keep his life. He didn’t want to stay a moment longer. He immediately requested to resign from Wang Chen. Wang Chen understood their feelings and had a few people escort them out. For ordinary people encountering such events, not collapsing immediately was. Already commendable, Wu Fuching’s pale face was a testament to his strong mental fortitude. Brother Hu, please wake him up. Wang Chen smiled at Xiang Hu. Understood, young. Master Wang. Xiang Hu replied quickly. He had realized that this was Wang Chen, a distinguished guest of their Xiang family, and naturally didn’t dare to neglect his words. He grabbed Zhang Jigang by the back of the neck with his strong hand like a vice and yanked him up. Zhang Jigang’s head hung limply. Slap, slap. Xiang Hu swiftly delivered too. Resounding slaps, the sharp sounds echoing clearly in the silent venue. Wang Chen sat confidently in the audience seat. Xiang Zuo and the others also took their seats. Zheng Ji Gang. Let out a muffled groan from his throat, slowly opening his eyes, pretending to still be half-conscious. The moment he opened his eyes, he was startled into a cold sweat by Wang. Chen’s ambiguous gaze. He instinctively tried to struggle, but the pain coursing through his body rendered him immobile. Let me go, and I’ll pretend today’s events never happened. I’ll have the promised 2 billion Hong Kong dollars transferred to you immediately, Zheng Jigang said, his eyes filled with resentment, but at this point he had no choice but to bow his head. Xiang Yu was truly ruthless. He had really gone for the kill. Zheng Jigang touched his fractured legs, a flicker of fear crossing his eyes. If he hadn’t pretended to faint, he didn’t know how much more he would have to endure. Manager Li knew that today’s situation couldn’t end well, so he could only stomp his foot and walk away to maintain order, lest he get dragged into it. This was just a minor scuffle, when the real heads of the Xiang and Zhang families arrived, that would be the most brutal time. Who. Knows, there might be rivers of blood here today. Such high-level figures were completely beyond his reach. If he provoked them, he wouldn’t even know how he would die, the official. Manager of the Horse Racing Association’s prominent status didn’t provide him with any sense of security. After all, countless people were sunk to the bottom of the sea every year. In international waters. He didn’t want to be the second one. Just as Zhang Jigang finished speaking, a sharp female voice suddenly rang out from the crowd, it’s Wang Chen. Oh my god, it really is Wang Chen, darling. I love you. Mua. Help. He just looked this way. Did anyone get it on camera? Quick, take a screenshot. So this grand scene was. Created by Wang Chen. Yeah, yeah, look how respectful Xiang Zui is towards him, truly my husband. Many young girls from the mainland recognized Wang Chen, extremely. excited, and rushed towards him, but the disciples of the Ian society formed an ironclad wall firmly blocking their way. Wang Chen, upon hearing this, turned to look at them, and revealed a faint smile. They were all a bunch of lovely people, after all. They were from his hometown, so he naturally wouldn’t put on a cold face or act aloof. He wasn’t worried about them taking pictures, as long as they were just taking his photo, it was fine. If they captured something they shouldn’t, he wasn’t afraid of them posting it online. So he let them be. providing them with some material for their sleep was also not a bad thing. Zheng Jigang looked at Wang Chen, who was being treated with respect by the Xiang siblings, and finally realized that Wang Chen might actually be the one with the highest status among them. Guo Fucheng had previously said that Wang Chen was someone he couldn’t afford to provoke. Xiang Zhao had also mentioned that he was a distinguished guest of the Xiang family. Now it seemed that Wang Chen’s identity was indeed not simple. He might have provoked someone he shouldn’t have. Thinking of this, beads of sweat appeared on Zhang Jigang’s forehead and the blood drained from his face. No matter what, the Xiang family wouldn’t dare to take his life. But this mysterious man in front of him was truly unfathomable. He couldn’t help but feel a bit scared. Wang Chen’s smile had not yet faded. When he suddenly turned to Zhang Jigang, the smile in his eyes vanishing in an instant. He leisurely adjusted his cuffs and said Zhang Xiao, the 50 billion Hong Kong dollars I promised earlier should be settled now, right? You’re talking nonsense. Wasn’t it 20 billion Hong Kong dollars? When did it become 50 billion? Zheng Ji Gang retorted excitedly. He had seen people ask for outrageous sums before, but he had never seen someone so brazen. The 20 billion he mentioned before was just bragging, he hadn’t even inherited the family business yet, so where would he get that much money? Even if he were killed, he couldn’t come up with that amount. Xiang Yu saw him struggling to get up and directly pressed his hand down on him. No matter how he struggled, he could only curl up on the ground. Do you think this is your home? Do you have a choice? Xiang Yu. said disdainfully, idiot, this amount is too much, I can’t come up with that much right now, just let me go, I promise I’ll get the money and bring it to you as soon as I can. Zhang Jigang had no time to think and could only soften his stance towards Wang Chen, as long as they let him go, whether or not he would pay was no longer up to him, promise? Wang Chen suddenly chuckled, taking a cigar from Xiang Zhao, he took a deep puff and slowly exhaled a cloud of fragrant smoke. Wang Chen couldn’t help but nod, this was more fitting, for someone of his stature. He suddenly leaned forward, the ember of the cigar almost touching Zheng Jigang’s face, now I’m giving you two choices, first, transfer the money. Immediately, and maybe I’ll let you off the hook. Second. Wang Chen deliberately paused and slowly said, you might have to suffer a bit, wah, what? Zheng Jigang. Stammered in response. A smile appeared on Wang Chen’s face as he flicked the ash from his cigar, the sparks landing on Zheng Jigang’s bleeding wound, the second option is quite. Entertaining, right now, I’ll set up a global live stream for you. As long as someone sends you gifts, you’ll get whipped once. until the gift money adds up to 50 billion. Seeing Zhang Jigang’s eyes widen, Wang Chen leaned in closer, the cigar smoke enveloping both of them, or do you want to try a more humiliating scenario, letting the fans see? The famous young master Zhang wetting his pants? Ha, you madman. Do whatever you want. Zhang Jigang felt despair, he tried to struggle to his feet but was firmly held down by Xiang Hu. He couldn’t move. He couldn’t help but feel hopeless. If he could find 50 billion Hong Kong dollars at home, it could be gathered. But how could the… elders at home possibly fear Wang Chen and how could they give him that much money? The remaining choices were utterly unacceptable. Whether it was a global live broadcast, enduring, a whip for how many gifts he sent or the situation of him wetting his pants. If this got out, there would be no need for Wang Chen to act for the sake of the family’s reputation. He would be left with no place to be buried. The family would definitely abandon him, even though his father, Zhang Xiong, was the current head of the Zhang family. The Zhang family did not lack for an heir like him. Zhang Jigang suddenly looked up at Wang Chen, the last remnants of confidence in his eyes collapsing. Please, please give me three days. I will gather 50 billion immediately. I can’t move the money in my account right now, but I can mortgage all my properties. His voice was tinged with a sob, struggling to grab Wang Chen’s pant leg but was kicked back to his spot by Xiang Zhu. A trace of barely perceptible resentment flashed in Zhang Jigang’s eyes. The suffering he endured today. He would definitely make them pay back. Don’t let him find the opportunity. Whether it was Xiang Zhu, or this mysterious Wang Chen, they should all wait for him. Three days? Xiang Zhu scoffed, does young master Zhang think this is a market for bargaining? Did you ever think about today when you blocked me with hundreds of people? Xiang Yu suddenly laughed, exaggeratingly holding his stomach and laughing heartily, this is just too funny. The pride of the Zhang family, now like a stray dog wagging its tail in desperation. You will have your day. I’ll give you one hour. Wang Chen said with a faint smile, you find a way to gather the money, if you can’t, think about the consequences yourself. He didn’t care at all whether Zhang Jigang could gather that money. Staying here was just to see what other tricks the Zhang family had up their sleeves. Since he had already offended this wealthy Zhang family, he naturally had to completely resolve this so-called wealthy family, otherwise he wouldn’t feel at ease. Zhang Jigang felt somewhat helpless. Now he could only buy time, waiting for his father to come to his rescue. What could one hour accomplish? He couldn’t even gather the 20 billion Hong Kong dollars he had promised earlier, let alone 50 billion. Even if he mobilized the family’s assets now, it would be useless, 50 billion in cash was not that easy to come by. Xiang Zhu leisurely took out his phone, a playful expression on his face. He opened a live streaming app that started with a Y and mocked, Young Master Zhang, the global netizens are all waiting to see your wonderful performance. He pointed the camera at Zhang Jigang’s distorted face, if everyone finds out that the heir of the Zhang family is begging for mercy on the ground, TSK TSK, can you bear such humiliation? No, don’t go live. His voice trembled, filled with anger, and he nearly spat blood, I’ll contact my people right now and transfer the money immediately. Fear made him completely panic. If this scene were to be broadcasted live, losing the face of the Zhang family would be a consequence he couldn’t bear. One hour isn’t enough, give me three hours. I swear, 50 billion Hong Kong dollars, not a penny less. Family, did you hear that? Young master Zhang wants to negotiate. With us. Should we agree? Xiang Yu leaned closer to the camera, raising his eyebrows exaggeratedly. He suddenly turned to Wang Chen, how about we do a crowdfunding? Let the netizens vote on whether to extend the time? That works. Wang Chen played with his cigar, nodding, a smile curling at the corners of his mouth. Xiang Yu immediately perked up, his fingers flying over the phone screen, ready to start the live broadcast. Zheng Jigang suddenly erupted, using all his strength to roar, Xiang Zhu, if you dare to go live, my. Zheng family will ensure that your Xiang family has no foothold in the business world. No one will have it easy. He turned to glare at Xiang Zhu, bloodshot eyes, Xiang families. Three siblings, you humiliated me today and I will make you repay it a hundredfold in the future. His voice trembled, fear and anger flashing in his eyes. Family, look quickly. Young master Zhang is getting anxious. Xiang Yu laughed so hard he couldn’t stand up, speaking in front of the camera. He deliberately leaned in, shoving the phone into Zhang. Ji Gang’s face, still dare to threaten me? Clean the shit and piss off your pants first. Alright, give me an hour and I’ll gather the money for you. Zhang Ji Gang’s eyes. were filled with rage, but he could only helplessly agree. It seems you haven’t grasped the situation. Wang Chen raised his hand to check his watch and smiled, a minute ago. You had an hour, now, you only have half an hour left. Zhang Jigang trembled violently, his back teeth grinding together as if they would shatter at any moment. He stared, fiercely at Wang Chen, the resentment in his eyes almost solidifying, but when he met the other’s half-smiling gaze, all his harsh words got stuck in his throat. He didn’t dare to speak. He feared that if he said anything, this devil-like man would do something to him. Fine. Half an hour it is. Zheng Jigang’s teeth were nearly ground to dust, his voice. Horses he said, I’ll contact someone to gather the money right now. His throat struggled to roll a couple of times before he finally lowered his noble head. He had completely. Lost the strength to resist. At that moment he resembled a fierce beast stripped of its claws and fangs, curled up on the ground, hoping his father would arrive soon. There was. No other way. The arrogance he once displayed was nowhere to be seen. Xianglong stood behind Wang Chan and the others, arms crossed, watching this scene with a sigh. He had. Been with the Xiang family since he was young and it was the first time he had seen a young master from such a top-tier family in such a state. It shocked him, the once proud. Heir of the Xiang family, Xiang Ji Gang, was actually forced into such a predicament. This Wang Sha’s methods are impressive. He whispered to Xiang Hu beside him, his gaze. Sweeping over Wang Chen’s indifferent face, I just wonder which family this Wang Sha belongs to, his skills are truly remarkable. Xiang Hu shook his head, looking at Xiang Ji Gang’s. Curled up figure, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes quickly replaced by awe. He recalled the helicopter fleet that had come for Wang Chen, and Wang Chen’s calm demeanor. Not simple at all. I used to think our Xiang family was already quite impressive. He swallowed hard inside, now I realize there are always people beyond people, and heavens. Beyond heavens. The two exchanged glances, seeing the same emotion in each other’s eyes. They were grateful to be on Wang Chen’s side today. Even more grateful not to have. Become his enemies. Otherwise, with their martial arts skills, they would likely end up like Jung Ji Gang, a lost dog. After all, no matter how skilled one is, they still fear a kitchen knife. Those who achieve success in ancient martial arts can do so at close range, making enemies of nations. But that requires being able to get close, if you can’t, in the face of modern weapons, it’s just a matter of a single shot. Nothing much can be stirred up. Jung Ji Gang took out his phone and pretended to make a few calls. Then he Flatteringly said to Wang Chen, I’ve already contacted someone to raise the money, don’t worry, I will definitely gather this 50 billion Hong Kong dollars within half an hour. Alright, if you can’t raise the 50 billion in half an hour, you’ll see what happens. After threatening Zhang Jigang, Wang Chen ignored him, allowing him to waste time. He turned his attention to the arena. At this moment, the crowd, under the guidance of Manager Li’s security team and the disciples of the Ian Society, was rushing towards the outside of the horse racing venue. The number of people was dwindling and those who were stubbornly staying put saw the situation and had no choice but to give up watching and turn away. Suddenly, a girl in a pink dress tried to break through the security’s blockade, waving her hands towards Wang Chen and shouting, Xiangzhu, Junling sister, let them let me. In. Did you hear that? Wang Chen frowned upon hearing this. This woman was quite attractive, did she know Xiangzhu and the others? However, he was still curious and opened. His true eye to look at her. In an instant, the girl’s personal information appeared before him, name, he Chaoxin, age, 19, height, 172 centimeters, charm, 94, physique, 80, favorability, 69, skills, etiquette, advanced, dance, advanced, language, advanced, music, intermediate. When Wang Chen saw the girl’s name, his brows gradually relaxed. He, Chaoxin, and only 19 years old. It must be that girl. No wonder she was so familiar with them. Xiang Zhao Zhao glanced over, his brows slightly furrowed as he waved his hand. and Xiang who turned around and shouted at her. The people from Ian Hui, upon seeing their boss’s command, parted the crowded crowd, allowing the girl to run in. She jogged quickly, and soon arrived in front of Wang Chen, her cheeks flushed as she looked at him, her eyes sparkling with little stars. Wang Chen glanced over, his eyes brightening involuntarily. As she jogged over, her hair was a bit messy, which only made her palm-sized face even more charming. The pink dress outlined her slender waist. Her nose was small and delicate. and her pair of light pink lips were slightly parted, revealing small dimples when she smiled. She carried both the innocence of a young girl and the unique elegance of a noble. Lady. The diamond studs on her earlobes reflected tiny glimmers of light under the illumination, complimenting the pearl bracelet wrapped around her wrist, exuding an irresistible. Charm with every gesture. Holding a latest white Chanel handbag in her hand only added to her allure. He Chaoxin was slightly out of breath, not even glancing at the lifeless. Jung Ji Gang. She shyly avoided Wang Chan’s gaze, first giving a sweet smile to Xiang Zhuling, Sister Zhuling, long time no see. Then she greeted Xiang Zhao and Xiang Yu. Yu, little girl, how did you end up here alone? Don’t you know how dangerous it is here today? Xiang Zhuling quickly stepped forward, gently holding her arm, her gaze carrying a hint of reproach. As she spoke, she looked her up and down, confirming she was unhurt before letting out a sigh of relief. It wouldn’t be good to explain to her family if this little princess got hurt here. My father is fine for now. He Chaoxing pouted her pink lips and said softly, I just thought I’d come and take a look. I heard news that something happened to you at the horse racing event, so I came over. Her gaze turned back to Wang Chen, her dimples deepening, and I even got to meet the legendary young master Wang, so, worth it. Hello, Wang Chen, I am He Chaoxing, nice to meet you. Hello. Wang Chen smiled meaningfully, gently shaking her hand. So the precious little princess of the He family rumored about is you. Even more beautiful than I imagined. By the way, do you know me? This young lady is naturally beautiful, do I need your praise? Her ears turned. Bright red, but she raised her chin and huffed. Yet her cheeks instantly flushed, well, I’ve seen your videos online. She stole a glance at Wang Chen’s expression. Seeing his smile grow wider, she suddenly seemed to remember something, straightened her back and pulled out her phone from her bag, but since you have good taste, I’ll reluctantly add. You as a contact. Xiang Zhao, stifling laughter, couldn’t help but tease. Chaoxin, are you falling for a handsome guy at first sight throwing modesty out the window? Xiang. You, do you believe I’ll have someone beat you up? He Chaoxin’s eyes widened, grabbing her bag as if to throw it. She turned back, switching to a sweet tone, gently shaking her. Phone in front of Wang Chen, young master Wang wouldn’t refuse, right? My friend’s circle is full of top beauties. Stop messing around, it’s dangerous here, let’s sit down and talk. Xiang Junling shook her head helplessly, reaching out to pull her to sit beside her. Before she could finish her sentence, He Chaoxin suddenly grabbed Wang Chen’s shirt. Tiptoeing to lean close to his ear, actually, I feel like you look much more handsome in reality than in the videos. After saying that, she felt her ears burn with embarrassment. And when she released his hand, she deliberately raised her chin, pretending to be indifferent, remember to like my post after adding me as a friend. I don’t just give anyone. Face. Don’t be ungrateful. Wang Chen chuckled and glanced at her, and he Zhao Xun’s pretty face turned even redder. He shook his head, secretly lamenting his own charm. No one. Could resist it. He then took out his phone and added her on Fei -Xian. The name Strawberry Bear made Wang Chen take a second look. A nice name. As soon as they connected, Wang Chen realized that this young lady had a pretty good personality, bright and lively. Just after adding her as a friend, he Xiaoxian’s phone pinged with a new message notification. She quickly glanced at the screen, unable to suppress the smile creeping up her lips, and deliberately lifted her chin, saying, Humph, that was quick approval. I’ll begrudgingly say. You have a bit of sincerity. Next to her, Xiangya shook his head and made space beside Wang Chen. Seeing this, He Xiaoshin sat down directly. She stole a glance at Wang Chen, curiously sizing him up. For a moment, she felt a bit flustered. Is this really the husband my dad picked for me? He’s so handsome. He Xiaoshin couldn’t help but feel a surge of happiness, almost bursting out in laughter, but quickly composed herself, forcing a smile. When her father first wanted to introduce Wang Chen to her, He Xiaoshin had already figured out what was going on and she felt quite resentful about it. However, as a child of a prominent family, she enjoyed a luxurious life beyond that of ordinary people. Naturally, she had to listen to her family. Her displeasure dissipated instantly after her mother showed her Wang Chen’s photo. She even found Wang Chen’s videos on Douyin, watching them repeatedly and analyzing them closely. He Xiaoshin also came to terms with it. Marrying someone was inevitable. Girls grow up and eventually get married, she couldn’t avoid it. Wang Chen wasn’t bad either. After her father’s condition improved a bit, she even secretly ran to Hong Kong to get to know Wang Chen in advance. Upon meeting him, she felt. He was even more handsome. He Zhao Xin could hardly look Wang Chen in the eye, her heart racing like a little rabbit. Thumb, thumb. Zheng Zhigang saw the newcomer and his face. Paled slightly. How could he not recognize this girl? Any second generation rich kid would want to win her over. She was the most beloved and youngest daughter of the gambling king. His father, Zheng Xiong, had previously approached the He family, wanting to marry this cherished daughter of the gambling king to him, thus forming a powerful alliance between the Zheng and He families. Their careers would surely flourish. But he old master had outright rejected the proposal, and that was the end of it. He had given up on that idea. But now, he joshin had come to Hong Kong alone, what was her purpose? He didn’t know. However, the moment she arrived, she added Wang Chen’s contact information and frequently, glanced his way, which was clearly unusual. This made Zheng Jigang feel a surge of anger. The girl he pursued without success ended up taking an interest in a man she was meeting, for the first time. Was this guy really just a bit more handsome and taller than him? He wasn’t bad either. But Jung Ji Gang didn’t dare to show his anger on his face. The current situation was very unfavorable for him. It was best to keep a low profile. He would wait for his father to arrive before making any moves and see how long these people could be so arrogant. Yet, an unsettling feeling suddenly surged within him. A wave of anxiety. What kind of family was the He family? Anyone who had come into contact with them, knew that the entire Macau was basically under their family’s control. Their power was terrifying. Just the few major casinos under their name could earn astronomical wealth for their family every day. He old master was extremely strict with his daughter. As far as he knew, she had just escaped life-threatening danger and was recuperating at home. He Xiaoxin should be at home taking care of her father, why was she here? Was it for Wang Chen? Zheng Ji Gang shook his head vigorously at this thought. What identity does Wang Chen have? That could possibly match He Xiaoxin. But looking at He Xiaoxin’s beautiful big eyes, all focused on Wang Chen, it clearly shows she came to find him. Generally, the children of prominent families have other arrangements for their partners in marriage. Could it be that old master he specifically sent her here? What exactly is Wang Chan’s identity? A glimpse reveals the whole picture, observing a drop of water reveals the vast sea. Zhang Jigang is not a playboy, he doesn’t linger in flower gardens every day, but instead, he works hard. He feels quite successful in his career. He increasingly senses that this matter is not simple. The Xiang siblings’ excessive respect for Wang Chan is one thing. But now there’s also a little princess from the He family. Why is everyone so respectful towards him? The oddity in all of this is this excessively handsome man in front of him. Wang Chen? The surname Wang? It seems there isn’t a particularly powerful Wang family. Zheng Zhigang racked his brain but couldn’t figure it out, only feeling his heart race more. Intensely as he pondered. Time passed second by second. Young Master Zhang, there are three minutes left, the time is almost up, Xiangzhu said, glancing at the time and smiling. At Zheng Zhigang. He leisurely shook his phone, if the money doesn’t arrive, don’t blame the brothers for not giving face. Zhang Jigang’s Adam’s apple rolled painfully, his back teeth grinding. It’s coming, it’s coming. Just give me a little more time, after all, gathering 50 billion Hong Kong dollars all at once is a bit challenging. Zhang Jigang’s face looked quite grim. His mind raced, thinking of ways to delay. Wang Chin sat lazily in his chair, while the audience at the racecourse had all been ushered outside by the efforts of the Ian Association and the racecourse security. The venue was now filled with burly men, arms bared, wielding various weapons. Their tattoos were diverse and striking. It was a shocking sight. If a child saw this scene, they would surely cry in fear. It seems the Zhang family’s efficiency can’t match Missy’s speed in adding friends. It takes so long to gather a mere 50 billion Hong Kong dollars. Wang Chin casually glanced at Yi Cha Xin, who was secretly peeking at him with her phone, her ears turning red. Wang Chin greedily scammed the surrounding Ian Association members, their muscular arms and tattoos on full display, narrowing his eyes slightly. He then turned his gaze to Xiangzuan and asked, Xiangzuan, tell me honestly, how many members does the Ian Association have now? The development hasn’t been great in recent years, the core brothers on. The entire Hong Kong island add up to about 18,000, Xiangzuan didn’t hide it, pausing briefly before continuing, if you count those who aren’t usually important but can be gathered in critical moments, the number could increase several times. There are that many? Wang Chan was somewhat surprised. He thought the people present were the entire Ian Association. The result was beyond his expectations. Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu’s face was filled with undisguised pride as he eagerly added, don’t underestimate our Ian Association. In the country, due to strict controls in recent years, we’ve indeed kept a low profile. But overseas, it’s a whole different story. In recent years, the brothers of the Ian Association have established a foothold in Southeast Asia, Europe, and North America. They have collaborations with the Qing gang, Hongmen, and 18K. Just In Southeast Asia, in Thailand, the Philippines, and Malaysia, the Ian Association has one venue after another, with casinos, nightclubs, and dock businesses all firmly in there. Crass. The local small gangs are simply no match for them. In Europe, the Ian Association collaborates with some old forces from Italy and Russia, supporting each other. They deal in arms and smuggling. The Ian Association provides channels and sells goods. In the Americas, the Ian Association’s disciples help Chinese compatriots establish a foothold in Chinatown without being bullied, while also venturing into the restaurant, entertainment, and logistics industries, calculating now, the overseas disciples add up to an estimated several hundred thousand. Wang Chen nodded thoughtfully, his fingers lightly tapping on the armrest, producing a rhythmic sound. Several hundred thousand disciples. That’s no small number. It seems the Ian society has put in a lot of effort overseas these years. He squinted slightly, somewhat surprised. Is this the foundation of an old power? They have nurtured hundreds of thousands of people. With just a bit more equipment, some small countries might not even stand a chance. If something were to happen, the Xiang family could establish a foothold anywhere in the world. And this is just the Ian society. How many more people are there in the more famous Qin gang and other organizations? Wang Chen couldn’t imagine, let alone comprehend how great their power was. But he only knew that with these gangs combined, the Wang family need not fear. Suddenly, outside the racecourse, the sound of a crowd became noisy, accompanied by the blaring of police sirens. The sharp wail of the sirens echoed in the spacious venue, piercing an urgent filling. The air with a tense atmosphere. Zhang Jigang heard the commotion outside and finally breathed a sigh of relief. His father must have come to rescue him. In the blink of an eye, the gates of the racecourse were smashed open with brute force and hundreds of armed police officers surged in like a tidal wave, their dark gun muzzles instantly aimed at. Everyone inside. Everyone, put down your weapons, hands on your heads, squat down, shouted a leading officer into a megaphone. Resisting law enforcement will have consequences. Put down your weapons. The warning echoed throughout the empty venue. Although the disciples of the Ian Society were surrounded by this sudden show of force, they showed no fear. Their bodies tensed, gripping their weapons tightly, like a pack of leopards poised to pounce, glaring fiercely at the police. Each one stood their ground, ready for battle. At any moment. Hmph, you think you’re so great, officer, sneered a Ian Society member with a grotesque scar on his face, muttering under his breath, you come in here pointing. Guns at us, do you think we won’t fight back? His companions echoed him, but their eyes remained vigilant, scanning the police ranks, instinctively adjusting their positions to form a tighter defensive formation. The atmosphere on sight dropped to freezing point, the air thick with the scent of gunpowder. The guns across from them were steadily aimed at the E and society members, fingers resting on triggers, ready to respond to any sudden situation and fire. Damn it, they wouldn’t dare shoot. With so many of us brothers here, we don’t believe they have the guts. That’s right, brothers, don’t be afraid, they only brought this few people, they looked down on us. Come on. If it comes to a fight, if they. Hit me, all the brothers in Kowloon Walled City will avenge me. The Ian Society members stood tall, refusing to back down, ready to fight at the slightest provocation. Laughter. Suddenly erupted from the crowd. Brothers, their bullets are precious, if they misfire. How many reports do you think they’ll have to write? A scar-faced man in the corner. Suddenly opened his suit, revealing explosives wrapped around him, and the air instantly froze. This worthless life of mine should have been left overseas long ago, surviving is. Already again. Today, if anyone dares to shoot, I’ll take everyone down with me. Come on, let’s see whose bullets are faster, yours or my fuse. Ha ha ha, the E in society. Members gathered like a tide, backs pressed against each other, showing no fear, singing a tune in Cantonese. Both sides were on edge, locked in a stalemate. The entire venue felt like a volcano about to erupt, the oppressive tension making it hard to breathe, as if a single spark could ignite a fierce conflict. Xianglong and Xianghu also stepped forward. To stand in front of Xiangzhuo, Wang Chen, and others, watching the newcomers warily the moment Inspector Chen saw the detonator, his pupils constricted sharply. He put down the loudspeaker and noticed the pale faces of his colleagues beside him, sneering as he said, that little thing, I don’t know where they got a blank shell, and they think they can. Threaten us? Do they think we’re still living in the 80s? Inspector Chen slowly scanned the tense officers around him, reaching out to pat the trembling shoulder of a young officer nearby, what happened to the courage you had during the anti-vice and anti-gang operations in Mong Kok? Do you know why they dare to show the detonator? Because. They are even more afraid of dying than we are. Stay alert, pull yourselves together, remember. They are a rabble. Serious crimes unit, stand by. Inspector Chen drew his. Service weapon and pointed it at the ceiling, a bead of cold sweat forming on his forehead. With thousands of people present, if a conflict broke out, it wouldn’t be a joke. Lives. Were at stake. All safety measures are off, if they dare to charge at us, fire immediately, don’t hesitate. Inspector Chen spoke quickly, his eye scanning the situation inside. The race course. Just as the standoff was about to spiral out of control, two middle-aged men walked out from behind. One was dressed in a simple shirt but his demeanor was extraordinary. He exuded an unyielding authority. Beside him was a man in a gray suit, clearly wealthy. Following them was a man in police uniform. Judging by the insignia on him, he should be the commissioner of police. Upon seeing the newcomers, Inspector Chen silently stepped back behind them, remaining vigilant of the surroundings. Dad. Help me. Jun. Jigang shouted loudly upon seeing the newcomers. His heart skipped a beat when he saw the man in the simple shirt and he immediately relaxed. Jung Jigang felt a bit dazed. After all, the Ian society had always been a target of official scrutiny, acting cautiously and leaving no traces. But tonight, they had gathered thousands of people, armed and violent. The death toll was no less than a hundred. This was a serious provocation to the authority and such an incident occurring within an official event like the racecourse was. Bound to anger these big shots. Their personal appearance here made perfect sense. Zhang Xiong rushed in and immediately saw the miserable state of his son Zhang Jigang. His expression changed drastically and he didn’t care about the danger anymore. He hurried towards him. It’s dangerous over there, don’t go. Inspector Chen panicked in an instant, wanting to grab him, but he was directly stopped by the commissioner. Commissioner Huang said calmly, don’t mind him, your task tonight is to protect Director Fu. Fine. Inspector Chen nodded helplessly. Although he held the title of chief inspector in front of these two, he could only listen. Upon seeing the newcomers, Wang Chen raised his hand to signal. The surrounding disciples of the Ian society automatically parted to let him through. At this moment, Zheng Jigang’s face was bruised and swollen with blood. At the corners of his mouth, his once handsome face had swollen into a pig’s head. His arms and legs bore varying degrees of injury. The expensive suit he wore was tattered and the arrogant young master image he usually had was completely gone. Gang er. Zheng Xiong’s voice trembled filled with pain and anger. His palm shook slightly as he carefully. Examined his son’s injuries, each time he saw a bruise his lips quivered violently. Dad, you finally came, hurry and take me to the hospital, it hurts so much. Zheng Ji gangs. Eyes misted over, almost shedding tears. Having been pampered since childhood he had never endured such injuries. But surrounded by enemies, he had already been humiliated. Enough tonight, he didn’t want to lose face any further, forcing himself to hold back the tears. Alright ganger, don’t worry, I’ll handle things here first. Zheng Xiong slowly stood up, turning to face the standoff crowd, his aura instantly becoming fierce, they dare to treat you this way, I will make them pay the price. Dad, that person in the middle, seems to have an unusual identity, even Xiang and the others listened to him, Zheng Jigang, seeing this, struggled to pull at his arm, anxiously reminding him. Zheng Jigang noticed that he Chaoxin had come for Wang Chen. After careful consideration, he increasingly felt that Wang Chen’s identity must be extraordinary, certainly something he was unaware of. At this moment, he no longer thought about revenge. At the very least, he needed to clarify Wang Chen’s identity and background before proceeding. The Zhang family had come. This far with great difficulty, and the effort they had put in was immeasurable, they absolutely could not fall here. As long as he was alive, there was still a long life ahead. Naturally, he was not in a hurry for revenge. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future. But if they provoked someone they shouldn’t, the Zhang family would be in danger. Not to mention globally, just within Hua Gua, there were countless families more powerful than theirs. Better to be cautious. Zhang Xiong frowned and looked at Wang Chen. Wang. Chen’s extraordinary aura was not that of an ordinary person, but after carefully observing Wang Chen’s appearance, he shook his head. However, upon seeing He Chaoxin beside Wang Chen, he was taken aback. He looked at Zhang Jigang and said, who is this? Weren’t you supposed to be here to cause trouble for Xiang Zhao tonight? How did the little princess of the He family get involved? I don’t know, dad, just know he’s called Wang Chen. He Chaoxin seems to have a good relationship with this guy for some reason. It’s not suitable. To stay here long, take me away first, Zhang Jigang said, his expression somewhat anxious. Zhang Xiong glanced at He Chaoxin again, and his expression gradually became serious. As for Wang Chen, he did not take him seriously. Wang Chen clearly had a good appearance, and it was normal for the little princess of the He family to like him. Zhang Xiong’s expression grew increasingly serious. He looked at He Chaoxin, a glint of coldness flashing in his eyes. How did the He family’s precious jewel end up in a place like this? If word gets out, it might not look good. Uncle Zhang, aren’t you meddling too much? My affairs are none of your business. He Chaoxin rolled her eyes and said casually. Zhang Xiong. Snared, his eyes filled with even more coldness. Chaoxin, it’s not that Uncle Zhang is meddling. You mixing with these unsavory people. Where would the Yi family’s reputation go if it got out? He glanced at Wang Chen and Xiang Zhao, his tone full of disdain. Uncle, if you have the time to worry about me, you might as well pay more attention to Zhang. Ji Gang. Acting like a dead dog, it’s really embarrassing. He Chaoxin crossed her arms, her chin slightly raised, her eyes full of disdain. You. Zhang Xiong’s face instantly. Darkened. You little girl, don’t push your luck. Let me teach you a lesson on behalf of your family. Zheng Xiong’s temples bulged, and he suddenly grabbed He Chaoxin’s wrist, about to slap her face. Zheng Jigang, seeing this, shouted anxiously, Dad. This is the He family. Just at this critical moment, Xianglong’s figure flashed like a ghost, his long fingers precisely gripping Zheng Xiong’s wrist. With a forceful grip, Zheng Xiong felt a piercing pain shoot through his entire arm, forcing him to release He Chaoxin. He. Chaoxin stumbled back a step, supported by Xiang Junling’s quick reflexes. She looked at her reddened wrist, fury igniting in her eyes. I called you Uncle Zhang out of respect. For your age, and you dare to lay a hand on me. Do you really think the Yi family is a soft persimmon? After being steadied by Xiang Junling, he Chaoxin looked at Zhang Xiong, who was helplessly restrained by Wang Chen, and gritted her silver teeth. She suddenly shook off Xiang Junling’s hand, stepping in her 10-centimeter high heels, aggressively. Approaching Zhang Xiong. Zhang Xiong. Her small face was filled with anger. Before Zhang Xiong could look up, she raised her hand and slapped him hard. The crisp sound of the slap echoed in the silent space, and Zhang Xiong’s face instantly turned to the side, a clear imprint of her fingers visibly appearing. What do you think you are, daring to touch? Me? He Chaoxin’s chest heaved violently, ready to hit him again. But she was pulled back by Xiang Junling. What are you pretending to be in front of me, when you begged my dad for cooperation with your Zhang family back then? I didn’t see you acting so imposing. He Chaoxing did not hold back, pointing at his nose and scolding, Xianglong tightened his grip. On Zhang Xiong’s hand, listening to He Chaoxing’s furious curses, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily. How could this wealthy young lady be so fierce? It took him by surprise. Wang Chen turned to look at the girl’s puffed-up profile, her reddened eyes brimming with anger, resembling a little leopard whose tail had been stepped on. He shook his head slightly, finding it somewhat amusing. However, he appreciated her straightforward and generous personality. Just as He Chaoxin was about to continue her tirade, she suddenly noticed Wang Chen’s gaze, pouted her lips, and shot him a glare. She reached up to touch her hair, suppressing her expression. It was better not to leave a bad impression on Wang Chen. Zheng Xiong covered his face, which had been slapped by He Chaoxin, his Adam’s apple bobbing up and down, but looking at Wang Chen and Xiangzhuo, who were eyeing him like hawks, the harsh words that were on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back down. Moreover, the power of the He family was truly terrifying, far deeper than the Zheng family’s foundation. He didn’t want to offend the He family over trivial matters. He turned his gaze to Xiangzhuo, gritting his teeth and saying, fine, very well. I can’t touch the He family’s young lady, but can I not deal with you ignorant fools? Xiangzhuo, I see you all from the Ian society have the audacity of a bear and the gall of a leopard. He suddenly pointed at Zhangjigang, who was covered in blood behind him. My son has been beaten to this state by you, and the fact that he can still breathe is a miracle from heaven. Over a hundred lives, and the rest are still lying in the hospital. How can you be so ruthless? Our company’s employees were just here for a team-building event and didn’t provoke you at all, yet you resorted to such brutality. Are you putting on a sob story? Xiangzhuo lazily dug at his ear. Your son brought a group of thugs to ambush me, intending to take my life, and Xiangzhuo has become the victim? As for the over a hundred lives you mentioned, Xiangzhuo stood up slowly and said, where’s the evidence? You think? You can just dump the blame on us at Ian Society without proof? Look closely, who is really killing? Who is in the wrong here? We at Ian Society have been acting in self-defense. From start to finish, if anyone died, it’s not our fault. Zheng Xiong trembled with anger, pointing at Xiang’s was nose and saying, you are openly defying the law. I may owe their parents and wives an apology, but I will make sure you pay blood for blood and avenge them. Especially you three siblings, as the instigators, you are simply devils. So many lives lost at your hands, don’t you feel any guilt? And this Wang Chen, right? As an accomplice, you should go to prison together. A glint of satisfaction flashed in. Zheng Xiong’s eyes. The Zhang and Xiang families had been at odds for a long time and he finally found their weakness this time. Over a hundred lives. Hundreds injured. Now the director had even been invited over by him, with solid evidence in hand. These little bastards from the Xiang family would be lucky if they weren’t executed and they would spend the rest of their lives in prison. Moreover, the thousands of Ian society members present were all elite corps members. Once these people went in, the Ian society would be a scattered mess. This was a perfect opportunity to replace the E in society. As for his son Zhang Jigang’s injuries, he didn’t care. He wished his injuries were even worse, so. That when he sought revenge, there would be less opposition. Besides, he had nothing much to worry about, he could just go home and recuperate. As long as he didn’t die, he could. Still carry on the family line. Zhang Xiong was not worried at all. Xiang Zhuo. Look at the current situation. Gathering a crowd to cause trouble, assaulting police, and resisting. Arrest, which of these charges can you bear? Zheng Xiong looked around at the Yi and society members, bare-chested, and showing off their tattoos, and then caught sight of the dark gun muzzles outside the racecourse gate, and said hypocritically. He pointed at the curled up Zheng Ji gang on the ground, my son has been beaten to this state by you, and there are hundreds of brothers waiting for an explanation. An explanation? Xiangzhuo laughed, you think that sounds good, why don’t you ask the brothers for their opinions? As long as the brothers agree, we will all turn ourselves in. Fuck you. A burly man with a face full of flesh and a demon tattoo on his chest roared, swinging a thick iron chain, and smashing it against the armrest of a chair. The metallic clash shook the entire stand. Who dares to touch young master Xiang? I’ll twist their head off and use it as a knight. Pot. Zhang Xiong. Open your damn eyes and take a good look. Suddenly, someone in the crowd threw a bloodied machete, which landed right at Zhang Xiong’s feet. Zhang Xiong. Shivered in fear, cold sweat breaking out all over him as he looked at the enraged members of the Ian society, his face turning pale. When your son brought people to crack open. Our brother’s head, where was your talk of the law? Brothers, stand together and chop them all up to feed the fish. Even if I die here today, I will protect the safety of the. Young master. The scene erupted with a chorus of curses. Thousands of Ian society members raised their muscular arms high, steel pipes and machetes reflecting a chilling light. Under the illumination. Ian society. Live and die together. Live and die together. Live and die together. It was unclear who shouted the first call, but the. Wave of sound instantly swept through the entire venue. Thousands of people stomped their feet in unison, causing the stand to tremble violently, startling the racehorses in the stables into frantic whinnies. The crowd was emotionally charged, leaving Zheng Xiong and his son trembling uncontrollably. Wangchen looked at the Ian society members, his eyes filled with envy. Brothers united. This was truly rare, with such loyal brothers in the Xiang family, how could their development be poor? As long as they didn’t commit any principled mistakes in Hua Gua, they could roam freely. Suddenly, the police force at the entrance became agitated. Not good. They’re about to riot. A young officer’s hand trembled. Violently as he gripped his gun, his temples throbbing. The front row of riot shields began to tilt. The sound of metal clashing mixed with the heavy breathing of the police, and, the smell of gunpowder in the air was almost visible to the naked eye. Prepare to shoot to save lives. With a roar from Inspector Chen, the police behind the cordon all clicked. Off their safeties, the dark muzzles of their guns glinting coldly under the spotlight. Everyone, stop. Director Fu suddenly waved his hand, speaking calmly. After finishing, he stepped directly out of the cordon and walked towards Wang Chen. Director Zhang’s expression changed drastically and he rushed forward to grab his arm, advising, Director. There are too many people from the Ian Society, you absolutely cannot go in. It would be like a sheep entering a tiger’s den. It’s fine. Director Fu’s gaze was sharp as he stared at Xiang Zui and the others, speaking lightly, I want to see if these ruffians dare to touch a single hair on me. Director Fu’s eyes were filled with disdain. He cared. Nothing for these small -time thugs, and he looked down on the so-called noble Xiang family from the bottom of his heart. They were remnants of a bygone era, unable to keep up with. Social development. Their decline was merely a matter of time. Perhaps tonight would be the last straw that broke the camel’s back. Usually, it could be overlooked. But now they. Dare to cause trouble at the official horse racing event and had even killed hundreds. He couldn’t be blamed for being iron-faced and impartial. The once-glorious Xiang family, after over a hundred years, was also due for a curtain call. At this moment, Inspector Chin stepped in front of Director Fu, Director Fu, the Ian Society is currently in a. Frenzy, you are betting your life. I do not recommend you go. As the commander, even if I die today, I must quell this farce. Director Fu snorted coldly, straightening his. Slightly crooked badge, and said with righteous indignation. In this situation, if a conflict breaks out, the casualties will be severe. I don’t believe they dare to lay a hand. On me. I’ll go in and talk to them, you all stay alert. Inspector Chen looked at the determination in Director Fu’s eyes, his throat rolling violently as his eyes instantly reddened. He raised his hand and forcefully wiped his face, suddenly standing straight and saluting, Director, you can rest assured. I personally led the team to guard here. As long as there is any unusual movement, the sniper will definitely send those thugs on their way first. As he spoke, he reached out and tightly grasped Director Fu’s arm, his rough, palm soaked with cold sweat. Please be careful when you go in. That group of lunatics from the Ian Society can do anything. If the situation goes wrong, you must lie down. Quickly. I will definitely save you. Director Fu looked at Inspector Chen’s flushed face from excitement and nodded. Alright, alright. With you here, I feel at ease. He patted. Inspector Chen’s shoulder heavily, his voice carrying a rare gentleness. The surrounding officers had tears in their eyes, looking at Director Fu with deep emotion. Director Huang’s face was ashen as he stared at Director Fu’s back, the veins on his forehead throbbing. What time is it now? With this situation, isn’t Director Fu just jumping into the fire pit? But if something happens to him, my position as director will also come to an end. Director Huang turned to stare at Inspector Chen fiercely, listen. If the situation inside goes south, no matter who is on the other side, shoot to kill immediately. Ensure the director’s safety at all costs. After saying that, he turned and ran towards Director Fu. Yes, I will ensure the mission is accomplished. Inspector Chen shouted. Then he turned back and roared at the team behind the warning line, everyone, stay alert. If there’s the slightest disturbance, I’ll skin you alive. Director Fu glanced at Director Huang, who was following him, and said lightly, Director Huang, why are you following me? The team still needs your command. Director, what are you talking about? You are our backbone, how can I let you take risks alone? Director Huang panted as he caught up to Director. Fu, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, forcing a smile as he leaned closer and said, Besides, with Inspector Chen keeping an eye on the team, I trust him. But your safety is. The most important, I will protect you even if it costs me my life. Director Fu narrowed his eyes, a hint of coldness flashing in his gaze, but a meaningful smile curled at the corners of his mouth. You’re still clever, kid. He patted Director Huang’s shoulder heavily, the sound echoing. But don’t show any weakness later, that group from the Ian. Society looks down on cowards the most. Don’t mess up my plans. Director Fu said pointedly. He turned to look at the tense crowd in the arena, his gaze sweeping over Xiangzhu and Wang Chen, and the smile on his lips grew colder. Kill. kill kill just as director fu and director huan crossed the warning line a harsh sound of metal clashing suddenly erupted in the venue members of the e and society simultaneously slammed their machetes and steel pipes heavily onto the ground causing dust to rise and the stands to tremble police get out come any closer and we’ll fight to the death he chow xin witnessing this scene exclaimed in excitement today was indeed the right day to come where could she see such a scene in home Usually, when she went out, she had bodyguards behind her, and everyone treated her with utmost respect. This was the first time she had seen such an exhilarating scene. She couldn’t help but take out her phone and snap several photos of the scene and sent them to her sister. Director Huang was so scared he almost turned to leave. Could these little thugs communicate? What if they got emotional and stabbed him? Director Fu’s pupils suddenly constricted and his brows furrowed deeply. But… The next second, his face was again filled with a hypocritical smile, and he forced a friendly grin, Brothers, I’m here to mediate. I’m Fu Dixin, you may not know me, but we are. All Chinese. Why must we meet with knives and guns? He raised his hand to signal Director Huang to step back half a step, not to provoke the other side. Young Master Xiang. This old man has some guts, should we let him in? Xianglong noticed the situation happening in the distance and asked Xiangzhu. Xiangzhu nodded. With Xiangzhu’s approval, Xianglong raised his hand to calm the crowd. The previously restless crowd instantly quieted down, leaving only heavy breathing echoing in the venue.He stepped forward, the twin. Blades on his back swaying slightly with his movements. Director Fu, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you. Director Huang, it’s been a while as well. His gaze swept over Director. Huang’s trembling hand, a smirk curling at the corner of his mouth. How about we have your men put down their guns first? Hello, young man. Director Fu’s smile remained. Unwavering as he pressed down on Director Huang’s instinctive reach for his firearm. He turned to the police outside the cordon and raised his hand in a gesture. Put your guns. Away. I trust the brothers from the E and society will be reasonable. Inspector Chen quickly instructed his men to lower their weapons, nervously watching the scene unfold. Xiang. Long nodded slightly, stepping aside to clear a path. Since Director Fu trusts us, please come in. The crowd behind him parted automatically, all eyes fixed on the two men. Just. As Director Hwang was about to step forward to follow Director Fu, he was stopped by Xiang Long. Director Hwang’s hand is still shaking. Xianglong glanced at the handgun at. His waist, his tone half smiling, half serious. Why not leave the weapon behind? We at Ian Society are known for our hospitality and wouldn’t want to hear any accidental discharges. Before Director Huan could retort, Xianglong had already unholstered the firearm, playing with it in his hand. You. Director Huan’s face instantly turned a deep shade. Of purple, his trembling finger pointing at Xianglong. You. How dare you. This is a police sidearm. Seizing a weapon is a serious crime. He stumbled forward, but was stopped. By Director Fu. Director Huang. Why bother with a young man? Director Fu forced a smile, his expression not quite reaching his eyes. He turned to Xianglong, managing a grin. Since this young man has spoken, we naturally should accommodate him. Director Huang’s face flushed red, his teeth grinding together, but he had no other options. In the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of Xiangzhu and Wang Chen. The arrival of Director Fu steadied Zhang Xiang’s nerves. He was no longer panicking. He couldn’t believe that Wang Chen. and the others would disregard Director Fu, this was not someone a mere Xiang family could afford to offend. Director Fu’s gaze swept around the room, and when he spotted he, Chaoxin, his pupils constricted, pausing slightly before finally settling on Wang Chen. Looking at his handsome face and extraordinary attire, he frowned and asked, who is this? Director Fu, you may not know. This Wang Chen is just an outsider who doesn’t know his place, relying on a bit of connection with the Xiang family. Seeing this, Zheng Xiong, quickly stepped forward, deliberately raising his voice with a hint of flattery and pride. He shot a sidelong glance at Wang Chen, his eyes filled with malice. Hearing that he was merely an outsider, Director Fu relaxed a bit. As long as it wouldn’t interfere with his plans, that was fine. Zhang Xiong secretly observed Director Fu’s expression, noticing his frown deepening and felt a surge of joy. He added fuel to the fire, saying, he meddled in the Xiang family’s affairs, who knows, he might even see blood tonight. Someone like him, Director, you should deal with him properly. I don’t care what grudges you have, release him immediately. Director Fu crossed his arms, Shin slightly raised, looking down. At Xiang Zhuo and Wang Chen. His gaze swept over the chaos around them, his voice suddenly stern. And you people from Ian society, gathering to cause trouble and disrupt public. Order, put down your weapons right now and come back to the police station to turn yourselves in. Resisting will only lead to death. Do you see the police force outside? He, turned to look at the police squad standing ready outside the venue, raising his voice. At my command, you won’t be able to escape. Don’t think you can go against the authorities. Those who are sensible should cooperate quickly to seek leniency. Director Fu’s gaze swept over the Ian society members, finally landing on Xiangzhuo and her brother. I advise you not to ruin the Xiang family’s century-old foundation. Exactly. Don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. If you turn yourselves in now, you might suffer less. Director Huang chimed in, using his position to intimidate. He cast a triumphant glance at Xiangzhuo as if he could already see her surrendering. He had previously respected him. A little, but now the Xiang family has offended the wrong people, and with Director Fu stepping in, the Xiang family won’t be able to bounce back for long. At this moment, he can. Vent the pent-up anger in his heart. It feels refreshing inside. The Xiang family has their day too. Tonight, let’s capture all these people and see how he deals with them. Director Fu, what great authority you have. Zheng Jigang brought thugs to surround me first, almost costing me my life. And you say we are the ones causing a disturbance? Xiang. Zhu scoffed, the coldness in his eyes growing stronger. Who says otherwise? What great authority indeed. Xiang Yu said slowly, causing a disturbance, disrupting public order? Then this young master Zhang, leading hundreds of people armed with weapons into the racecourse, doesn’t that count as an assault on a government unit? He turned to look at. Director Fu, a smirk of undisguised mockery on his lips. If Director Fu is blind, I don’t mind helping you with that. You. Simply lawless. I see you want to go against the entire. Government. Director Fu’s face instantly turned a deep shade of purple, his finger trembling as he pointed at the Xiang siblings in anger. He suddenly turned around and shouted. At the police outside the venue, listen up. In five minutes, if they don’t surrender, don’t worry about us, just launch a strong attack. Ah. Director Huang beside him was. Instantly stunned. No, boss. So reckless. Surrounded by thousands of burly men, are you trying to get yourself killed? He was almost jumping in anxiety. Just as he was about to. Speak, he was startled by the furious shouts from the Ian Society, shaking the stands as if a bloody battle could erupt at any moment. Seeing this, Director Huang retreated behind. Director Fu, staying close to the Zhang father and son, feeling somewhat at a loss. Looking at the scene, Director Huang couldn’t help but feel a bit regretful. If he had known, Director Fu would be so aggressive, he wouldn’t have come along, it would have been better to hide behind and direct things. At least his safety would be guaranteed. He also. Didn’t know what Director Fu was relying on, how he dared to provoke these thugs, he might not even know how he would die later. From what he understood, Director Fu wasn’t that shallow. Could it be that he had other plans? Xiangzhuang knew that tonight’s situation had escalated, with Director Fu personally appearing here. Unlike in the past when the Ian Society would handle matters, even Director Huang wouldn’t bother to pay attention. As long as they acted discreetly and didn’t get caught, there was nothing to worry about. At most, they would find a few newcomers to take the fall and practice their courage. At this moment, he didn’t know why his father hadn’t come, he truly didn’t know how to handle Director Fu. He didn’t even dare to move. If he did, there would be no place for him in the entire Hua Gua. Now, he could only pin his hopes on Wang Chen. Although the Wang family had unmatched power on the mainland, not fearing anyone, this was Hong Kong. Just now, there was a helicopter squadron that came for Wang Chen. But now facing Director Fu, if he really wanted to investigate this matter, it would be quite troublesome. At least Xiangzhu felt helpless. This time director Fu was coming in strong, clearly wanting to go head to head. With us. The previous methods probably won’t work anymore. His gaze swept over the police outside the venue, who were watching closely, his brows furrowing as he turned and lowered. His voice to Wang Chen, my father hasn’t shown up, and the situation is completely out of control. Do you have any ideas? Xiangzhuo assessed the situation on the ground. Gritting his teeth, at worst, I’ll let my brothers fight it out, we can retreat first. These few people on the other side can’t stop us. Safety is paramount. Don’t worry. They’re just a few small fries, no need to take them to heart. Today, even if the king of heaven comes, he has to kneel. Wang Chen chuckled lightly, shaking his head, not caring. If director Fu heard what he said. Upon hearing this, Xiang Zhuo and the others all breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Chen’s confident demeanor clearly showed he was full of assurance. So they no longer worried about anything.He Chaoxin looked at Wang Chen with admiration, his calm demeanor made her appreciate him even more, while ordinary people like Xiang, Jia were terrified. This is a real man. When Director Fu heard Wang Chen’s words, his expression instantly darkened, as if water could drip from it, staring fiercely at Wang Chen’s nonchalant face. Kid, you have quite the audacity, a small fry? Today, I want to see who really needs to kneel. Director Fu’s lips curled into a sinister arc as he turned to. Wang Chen, I see your family background is impressive, but this murky water today is not something you can wade through. If you know what’s good for you, stay out of it. Xiang. Ja, stop resisting now, don’t think your father will come to save you. He was just frantically seeking help and called me earlier. Director Fu said lightly, don’t say I. Didn’t give you a chance. As long as your Xiang family and the Ian society behind you are useful to me in the future, the Xiang family will provide you with satisfactory. Compensation. As long as you behave, I will treat this matter as if it never happened. Everyone will be safe and sound. No. Director Fu, this isn’t what we agreed on. Xiang. Xiang exclaimed in shock. Xiang Ji Gang also showed a look of panic. He knew he had the confidence to trouble the Ian society only because of the support from this man behind the scenes. Now, the Zhang family had paid a heavy price and he himself was seriously injured, unsure if his legs and arms would recover. Now that it was time to reap the rewards, why wasn’t Director Fu acting according to what he had said before? Wasn’t it agreed that after the matter was settled, the Zhang family would replace the Xiang family as the emperor? Of the underground world, did Director Fu go back on his word? Director Fu merely glanced indifferently at the Zhang father and son. Fool. Did they really think he was an idiot? As long as the Xiang family was useful to him, why would he bother to support the Xiang family? Just be a good cash cow. The gang aspect was developing, whether he could. Still commanded in the future was another matter. Wang Chan actually thought more highly of him. He originally thought this director Fu was just a schemer playing a few tricks to gain some promotion credits. Now it seemed he was a competent Z guest. Integrating all resources for his use was the only way to reach a high position. After reaching his current. position, wanting to climb higher would require tenfold effort. A general success comes at the cost of countless bones, it’s not just an empty saying. Without the support. Of these prominent families, the hope of someone his age entering the central authority was slim. Even a small step forward would be impossible without a noble person’s support. It was unthinkable. But good horses are common, while noble people are rare. Only relying on oneself is the truth. As the highest L leader of the evidence here, Director Fu had. stumbled through the Z-Circle for decades, almost half his body in the ground. To reach his current position, it was all about being ruthless. As long as it was useful to him, he would accept all resources. Those who disobey would have no place to be buried. Xiangja, Xiangjuling, and Xiangyu exchanged glances, utterly shocked that he had this intention. After all this fuss, it turned out he had his eyes on the entire Xiang family. Unfortunately, he had picked the wrong target. A mere director was not worth the Xiang family selling their lives for him. Moreover, even if the Xiang family needed a backer, right beside them was Wang Chen and the Wang family behind him was a thousand times stronger than him. Only a fool would abandon the giant that is the Wang family. The old man of the Wang family was still alive. In ancient times, Wang Chen was undoubtedly the heir. And he was the only one who knows what would happen after the old man of the Wang family passed away. But right now, anyone who dared to provoke Wang Chen or the Wang family was courting death. Xiang Jia couldn’t help but find it amusing, he stood up, his eyes filled with coldness, Director Fu, your calculations are quite loud. Unfortunately, my Xiang. Family looks down on you. I want to use my Xiang family like dogs? Go to hell. Xiang Yu retorted without holding back, cursing, at your age, you must be getting senile. It’s. Time for you to step down. Director Fu wants the Xiang family to pledge allegiance? With you, I’m afraid you’re not qualified. Xiang Jun Ling suppressed the anger in her eyes, elegantly adjusting her skirt as she stood up, staring directly at him. A sinister smile crept onto Director Fu’s face, showing no concern for their reaction. He leisurely pulled out a stack of photos from his pocket, tossing them one by one onto the ground, each depicting members of the Ian society engaged in various shady dealings. If these pieces of evidence reach the higher-ups, along with the hundred or so lives lost today, the Xiang family will be doomed, Director Fu said nonchalantly. But as long as you are willing to cooperate, all of this can be made to disappear. His gaze swept back and forth among Xiangzhu, Xiangjuling, and Xiangyu. Follow me and the Xiang family will not only preserve its current assets but I can also help you secure more projects, ports, real estate, minerals, whatever you desire, it’s all possible. Ha ha ha. Xiangzhuo and Xiang. You suddenly burst into laughter. Xiangzhuo laughed so hard that tears streamed down his face. What’s so funny? Seeing this, Director Fu’s expression darkened and he asked. Is it that you look down on the conditions I’ve offered? You can ask for anything you want. Xiangzhuo and Xiang you completely ignored him, continuing to laugh to themselves. Director Fu’s face grew even darker. Director Huang’s expression was quite the spectacle, alternating between pale and green, his lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but, in the end, he kept his mouth shut. Choosing to remain a silent observer, he realized that in this situation, he had no place to speak, one wrong move, and he could be dragged in. 2. Before he arrived, he thought it was just a simple violent incident, but now it seemed far from simple. The stakes for these big shots were high. It was beyond his comprehension. Zhang Xiong and Zhang Jigang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the Xiang family refused to yield, even if director Fu had the intention, there was nothing he could do. They still needed to rely on the Xiang family. Watching the wildly laughing Xiangzhu and Xiangyu, Zhang Xiong felt a bit of admiration for these young men from the Xiang family. They were tough nuts. If they had backed down just now, Zhang Xiong would have genuinely worried that director Fu would take real action. Their future would not be easy. Zhang Xiong glanced at Director Fu’s grim face and said with a smile, Director, why waste your breath on these reckless fools? They are causing a disturbance in wielding weapons. The evidence is irrefutable. As long as you give the order, we can charge in and see how long they can remain arrogant. Zhang Jigang also forced himself to get up, ignoring the pain coursing through his body. Dad is right. Director Fu, reasoning with these street thugs is beneath your dignity. He shouted hoarsely, his emotions running high, look at what they’ve done to me. If we don’t uproot the Ian society today, who will take you seriously in the future? Director Fu, why don’t we leave first? This isn’t a place to linger, I don’t believe they dare to touch you or stop you from leaving. Zheng Xiong turned to support Director Fu’s arm, his face full of flattery. He lowered his voice and whispered. In his ear, once we’re out, it’s all up to you how to handle these people. He stole a glance at the unmoving Director Fu, cursing inwardly while maintaining a smile on his. Fei said Director, the longer we stay, the more dreams we’ll have. The smell of blood here is too strong, don’t let it dirty your body. Zhang Xiong was nearly frantic. He had made himself so clear, yet Director Fu remained unmoved. But what could he do? After all, he was the leader. The Ian society members around them had eyes filled with murderous intent. He was not surprised. As long as Xiangzhu gave the order, they would all die here today, even with hundreds of fully armed police pointing their guns this way, once a fight breaks out, dealing with them would be a mere afterthought. He had to be afraid. Just at this moment of tension, when the atmosphere was at its peak, the laughter of Xiang, Zuo and Xiang Yu gradually faded. They exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with unspoken understanding. Then, they looked towards their sister, Xiang Junling, who gave a slight nod, as if granting them affirmation and support. They no longer hesitated. Xiang Zuo and Xiang Yu stood up simultaneously, their steps steady and powerful as they walked towards Wang Chen. They reached Wang Chen and, with a thud, knelt on one knee. The air around them seemed to freeze. All eyes from the Ian Association were focused on them, and Zhang, Xiong, Director Fu, and others were equally shocked, unsure of what this brother duo was up to. Why were they kneeling for no reason? Before today, we may not be brothers, but, we are closer than brothers. This birdbrain before us, who dares to think that the Xiang family will surrender, truly underestimates us. Loyalty is chosen by the ruler, and the ruler is also chosen by the loyal. The courage and responsibility you have shown during this time have deeply impressed me. From now on, I, Xiang Zhuo, vow to follow you to the death. From now on, the Xiang family and the Ian Association will look to you as our leader. If I go against this, may heaven strike me down. Xiang Yu followed up. I, Xiang Yu, feel the same way and am willing to entrust my life to you. From now on, if you tell us to go east, we will not dare to go west. In this world, you are the first. And will be the only one to make us willingly kneel and pledge our loyalty. After saying this, the two of them pounded their fists heavily on their chests to show their determination. Wang Chen was taken aback by this scene. He looked at the two heirs of the Xiang family performing such a grand gesture before him and the shock in his heart surged like a tide, difficult to quell. After a brief moment of days, Wang Chen quickly regained his composure, his voice tinged with emotion, you two, quickly get up. I, Wang Chen, cannot bear such a grand gesture. From today on, we are brothers who will live and die together. Wang Chen’s gaze was fervent as it swept over Xiang Zuo and Xiang Yu’s faces. Your choice, I, Wang Chen, will remember in my heart. In the days to come, we will share blessings and face difficulties together. If I, Wang Chan, let you down, may heaven strike me. Down. At this moment, the air in the venue became even more solidified. The expressions of the Ian Association members were filled with astonishment. Xiang Long and Xiang Hu were equally shocked. The actions of Xiang Zuo and Xiang Yu were tantamount to binding the lives and deaths of the entire Xiang family and the Ian Association to Wang Chan. Although they did not know their boss’s decision or the extent of Wang Chan’s power, it did not hinder them from following their choice. Xiang Zui and Xiang Yu must have made what? They believed to be the right choice. This was beyond doubt. Xiang Long and Xiang Hu nodded and also knelt on one knee, their eyes burning as they looked at Wang Chan and shouted, We vow to follow you to the death. If we go against this, may heaven strike us down. We vow to follow you to the death. If we go against this, may heaven strike us down. We vow to follow you to the death. If we go against this, may heaven strike us down. The thousands of Ian Association disciples behind them saw this and also knelt. on one knee, continuously waving their weapons, swearing allegiance. In the distance, Inspector Chen had no idea what was happening and could only watch nervously. The tension increased. Why were these Ian Association members suddenly so agitated? Wang Chen’s pupils trembled violently as he looked at the sea of people kneeling, the sound of their oaths echoing in his ears. All eyes were on him. Wang Chen’s throat bobbed twice with difficulty. He took a deep breath and strode towards Xiangzhu, firmly placing his hand on the Other shoulder, brother Xiang, there’s no need for such grand gestures between us. He then turned to Xiang Yu, pulling him up with force. From now on, we are all on the same side. He quickly walked towards Xiang Long and Xiang Hu. I will remember the brotherhood you two have shown. Wang Chen gripped the arms of the two men like iron pincers, using his brute strength to lift them up. From today on, we are brothers. Xiang Long and Xiang Hu’s pupils contracted as they looked at Wang Chen in astonishment. The strength they had, honed was utterly powerless before him. Their resolve only strengthened further. Xiangxiao’s choice was not wrong, Wang Chen’s strength was even greater than theirs. They had trained in ancient martial arts to a profound level, yet Wang Chen could lift them so easily. This was no small matter. Once the four stood up, Wang Chen turned to face the sea of members from the Ian society. He was somewhat surprised by the loyalty of the Xiang family and the Ian society, but it was also within expectations. Over the years, the Xiang family had lost its former glory and the Ian society had only developed well overseas. If Wang Chen hadn’t suddenly come to Hong Kong, the Xiang family might have faced a significant setback with their current situation. They could have truly stumbled into a major downfall, leading to their decline. He didn’t know if the Wang family needed this strength, but aside from having money, Wang Chen really had nothing else. The Xiang family’s allegiance just happened to fill this gap. Everyone, from today on, you are all one. Of us. Your enemies are my enemies, and your glory is my glory. My Wang family does not tolerate bullying. He Chao Exe in small face flushed red, unable to help but squeeze her. Legs together. Wang Shen was just too handsome. Director Fu felt a surge of anger rising from his heart to the top of his head. The Xiang family would rather pledge loyalty to an unknown kid than to him. They truly had no fear of death. Huh. Alright, alright. He had originally wanted to give the Xiang family a chance but now he realized he had been too lenient. He snorted coldly and said nothing more. Turning around, he left. Zheng Xiong and his son, along with Director Huang, hurriedly followed, in this situation, it would be too late if they didn’t leave now. Wang Chen’s gaze was like a torch, sweeping over the departing figures of Director Fu and the others, and he said loudly, brothers, please, keep our esteemed guests here, don’t let them leave. Since they are here today, we should catch up properly, how can they leave so easily? As soon as he finished speaking, the members of the Ian Society sprang into action, surging toward Director Fu and the others like a tide. They moved swiftly, completely sealing off the escape route for Director. Fu’s group. What do you want? You dare to lay hands on me? You are not worthy. Director Fu was startled but he forced a calm expression and shouted. Wang Chen’s lips curled. Slightly, revealing a cold smile, not worthy to offend? In front of my Wang family, you don’t get to say that. Since you are here today, don’t even think about leaving in scathe. As he spoke, he slowly walked forward, each step steady and powerful, as if carrying an invisible pressure. Zheng Xiong and Director Huang were already pale with fear, their legs trembling slightly. They never expected things would escalate to this point. They had thought it was just a simple pressure tactic, but this young man named Wang Chen seemed ready. To get serious. Wang Chen, don’t go too far. Director Fu shouted with a fierce facade, I am not someone you can provoke, if you know what’s good for you, quickly let these people step aside. If you don’t give me an explanation today, my brothers might not feel comfortable, Wang Chen said without pausing, smiling. The members of the Ian Society felt their blood boiling at Wang Chen’s words. They fixed their eyes on Director Fu and the others. As soon as Wang Chen gave the order, they would charge forward without hesitation. You dare. Director Fu’s eyes were filled with rage as he scolded. When did a mere child dare to speak to him like this? Truly audacious. In an instant, a thunderous explosion. Echoed from afar. What is there to fear? Director Fu was so imposing. Wang Chen looked up. He saw dozens of black cars driving in through the main gate, and Xiang Hua Xiang, stepped down from one of the vehicles. Behind him were the anxious Xiang Tai and a group of bodyguards. Boss. The members of the Ian society were overjoyed and respectfully. Shouted Xianghua Cheng smiled and nodded at them, relieved to see that everyone present was fine. Stay alert. Inspector Chen said, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. Director. Fu was still inside. Now, the other side had brought so many more people. It was truly a miscalculation, if he had known, he would have brought more people. Xianghua Cheng, you probably aren’t qualified enough. Fu Dixing glanced at him disdainfully, showing no concern. If I’m not qualified, then what about this person? Xianghua Xiang smiled slightly. Not far away, a low-key black car pulled up and a young man stepped out. He looked to be in his 30s, dressed simply, just like an ordinary young man. However, when Director Huang, Zhang Xiang, and Inspector Chen saw this young man, their pupils constricted, and they stood frozen in place. Director Fu’s brows furrowed deeply, his fists clenched. He thought to himself that this was not good. After getting out of the car, the young man surveyed the surroundings, his gaze sweeping over Director Fu, Director Huang, and others finally landing on Wang Chen. a smile appeared on his face as he nodded at him the young man walked calmly through the standoff directly approaching inspector chen his voice calm yet carrying an undeniable pressure put away the guns these are all good citizens and the guns are not aimed at them the officer is watching from the car all right you all put away your guns protect the officer yes inspector chen couldn’t help but complain internally his eyes scan the thousands of tattooed strong men in the venue good citizens if these were good citizens then he was the modern day saint Complaints aside, he didn’t dare to be negligent and instructed his men to put away their guns. Then he consciously led his people to the front of the car. They formed a circle of vigilance, not daring to look inside the car, fearing they might get into trouble. He had a rough idea of who was inside. Tonight was going to be interesting. Things were likely to develop in another direction. The young man did not linger and walked towards Director Fu. The brothers from the Ian Society, at Wang Chen’s gesture, opened a path for him to enter. He approached closely and whispered a few words into Director Fu’s ear. Fu Dishin was taken aback. Unable to maintain his expression any longer. Not daring to delay, he ran towards a black limousine. Zheng Xiong and the others. Quickly followed, breaking away from the Ian Society’s encirclement and coming to Inspector Chen’s side. They finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zheng Xiong’s expression was quite vivid, alternating between innocence and guilt, his mind racing with thoughts. This young man was the secretary of that person. Could it be that he came to the scene in person? Xiang Huaqiang strode over to Xiang Zhao and the others, a rare hint of worry surfacing in his murky eyes, you guys weren’t hurt, were you? His rough hands rubbed back and forth on Xiang Zhao and Xiang Yu’s shoulders as if to confirm that they were truly fine. We’re fine, just a small scene. Xiang Yu chuckled, patting Xiang Huaqiang’s shoulder. Xiang Tai’s eyes were red after seeing that her children were unharmed. She breathed a sigh of relief and then hugged Xiang Junling tightly. When she turned to face Wang Chen, her eyes glistened with tears. If something had gone wrong today, The rest of her words were swallowed back, turning into a trembling sigh. Xiang. Hua Cheng suddenly patted Wang Chen’s shoulder heavily. Young Master Wang, what Xiang Zhao just said is the choice of our entire Xiang family. If anything happens in the future, just let us know. We will go through fire and water without hesitation. Uncle. Xiang, you flatter me. Xiang Zhao is my brother, we were just joking around, no need to take it seriously. Wang Chen turned to look at Xiang Zhao and his siblings, a genuine smile appearing on his face. A word spoken is like a promise made, from now on, the Xiang family will follow the Wang family’s orders and be completely loyal to you. The Xiang family will keep their word. Xiang Huaqiang. Regarded this young man with newfound respect.He was quite satisfied with this outcome. The Xiang family had indeed seen better. Days, and being able to establish a connection with the Wang family was something he had longed for. Wang Chen had said it was a. Joke, just for fun, but he took it seriously. Young master Wang, you. Xiang’s was throat tightened, and his eyes instantly. turned red. He had never seen his father express himself so solemnly, nor did he expect Wang Chen to refer to him as a brother. There’s no need for such formalities between us, just call me Wang Chen, let’s keep it casual. Wang Chen nodded, chuckling lightly, as he playfully punched him on the shoulder. It was already the 21st century. Wang Chen’s mindset wasn’t that of an old-fashioned person, the Xiang family was loyal to the Wang family, but that didn’t mean he had to act superior, although human nature. tends to make most people fear power rather than virtue, did they dare to show one face in front of the Wang family and another behind? Their backs? He couldn’t be bothered to put on airs. However, Wang Chen appreciated the street-smart vibe of the Xiang family. He felt at ease dealing with such people. Hello, young master Wang, I am Secretary Lin Yichen of Director Yun. You can just call. Mi Xiao Lin. The young man stepped forward respectfully. Hello. Wang Chen shook his hand and then asked with some confusion. Who is Director Yun? The secretary in front of him was definitely sent by Wang Jianguo to handle the aftermath, that much was clear. But he really didn’t know who was coming. He wasn’t familiar with the leaders. Here at all. Seeing this, Xiangzhuo leaned in and whispered a few words in his ear. Only then did Wang Chen suddenly realize. So this young man was his secretary, and Director Yun was actually someone special. That made sense. Director Fu had been so assertive at first, but upon seeing this person, he was taken aback. No wonder. This person was his direct superior, and he had to be concerned. There are many people here. And the directors can only stay in the car. Director Yun asked me to convey his apologies, I’m really sorry, he will personally apologize to you shortly. Shaolin slightly bowed and smiled. Are there other. Leaders? Shaolin whispered, there are a few others. Wang Shin nodded in understanding, Director Yun coming here personally for such a small matter, I am truly grateful, saying it’s an apology is really too. Serious. Director Yun often says, the Wang family produces talents. Xiao Lin’s smile deepened as he took out a gold embossed business card and handed it to Wang Chen with both hands, saying, it’s indeed a pleasure to meet you today, this is my personal contact information, please accept it. If you need anything in Hong Kong in the future, feel free to contact me. Thank you, Secretary Lin. Wang Chen did not refuse and accepted the business card, putting it in his pocket. He accepted his goodwill. Lin Yichen felt very excited when he saw Wang Chen accept his business card as the secretary of the director, having insight and knowledge was fundamental. Today, he had come here with a group of directors, making such a big deal just for this young man from the mainland, Wang Chen. At first, he was a bit puzzled, but after the director pointed it out, he suddenly understood. The Southwest Wang family, no wonder the directors all came here in person. Xiang Tai was quietly conversing with Xiang Junling when he caught a glimpse of He Cha Xin. Standing at the side, her face flushed as she stared intently at Wang Chen, her disheveled hair failing to hide the admiration and excitement in her eyes. You girl, how did you end up here alone? She frowned. slightly, releasing her hold on Xianghua Xiang, and stepped forward in her high heels. And why is your face so red? Did you get scared? Do you need to be taken to the hospital right away? She raised her hand, to gently brush aside the stray hair on He Chaoxin’s forehead, her fingertips touching the other’s hot cheek, puzzled. The Xiang family and the He family had always had dealings. Their relationship had been, somewhat tense in the past, with interests clashing in the hotel and gambling industries. The dynamics were quite complex. However, as time passed, the conflicts among the parties gradually faded, the relationship between the Xiang family and the He family has eased somewhat. They have been visiting each other quite frequently over the years. Xiang Tai is particularly fond of the youngest princess of the Gambling King, mainly because she is incredibly beautiful. However, he is somewhat puzzled as to why she came here alone and got caught up in this turmoil. And no, it’s just that it’s too hot in the venue, He Chaoxin stammered, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. Is that so? Xiang Tai carefully touched her forehead, and after confirming she was fine, he said, that’s good then. Xiang Junling suddenly peeked out from behind her. Mother, her fingertip poking at Yi Chaoxin’s flushed earlo, it’s fine, just that your face is redder than a lobster. Xiang Junling couldn’t help but chuckle, earning a glare from Yi Chaoxin, who was both embarrassed and angry. What are you laughing at? She stomped her foot, feeling a bit annoyed. Yi Chaoxin wanted to reach out and hit Xiang Junling, but her high heels stepped on a stick, just as she was about to fall, a strong arm suddenly wrapped around her waist. She turned to see Wang Chen had quickly stepped forward and was holding her steady. Be careful, Wang Chen said with a smile, his sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes twinkling. He Chaoxing froze in place, her heart nearly leaping out of her chest. She abruptly pushed Wang Chen away and pretended to be angry, shouting, who asked you to care? Who told you to touch? Me, hum. Mind your own business. She muttered under her breath while blushing and linking arms with Xiang Junling. Wang Chen shook his head with a smile. Quite the proud one, but he didn’t feel the need. to pursue every woman he saw, nor did he care much about his attitude towards her. He just thought that the hug earlier was, her waist was quite slim. Xiang Junling stifled her laughter, allowing Yi Chaoxin to secretly pinch her while deliberately raising an eyebrow at Wang Chen, young master Wang, our Chaoxin is just stubborn, don’t take it to heart. Yi Chaoxin’s face flushed to her ears, her toes unconsciously, grinding against the ground while her peripheral vision secretly gauged Wang Chen’s reaction. It’s fine, Wang Chen chuckled softly, waving his hand. Since young master Wang says so, our Chaoxin can rest assured. Xiang Junling exaggeratedly clutched her heart and shot a mischievous glance at He Chaoxin. Clearly, when someone fell into your arms just now, she was overjoyed. I can still feel her heartbeat now. Ah. Stop it. Junling, I hate you. He Chaoxin suddenly lifted her foot to step on the other’s foot, but her movement was too abrupt, causing her to stumble. In her panic, she grabbed Xiang Junling’s shoulder to steady herself. She was both embarrassed and anxious. Fearing that Wang Chen would see through her little thoughts, she could only bury her head in Xiang Junling’s embrace, not daring to look up. Wang Chen merely. Chuckled lightly. He found this girl quite amusing. Meanwhile, Xiang Tai finally caught on. No wonder it felt strange, it turned out she had some feelings for Wang Chen. It was no surprise, given how handsome Wang Chen was, it was hard for girls not to like him. If it weren’t for her own Junling being a bit older, she would have tried to matchmake her with Wang Chen long ago. It was just a pity. She had always wanted. Xiang Zuo and Xiang Yu to pay some attention to the He sisters, He Chaoxin and He Chaolian. They were both beautiful and well-behaved, and both families knew each other well. If they became her daughter’s in-law, Xiang Tai would be overjoyed. But these two brats somehow ended up as friends, which really made their mother worry. It was frustrating. Young Master Wang, now that the situation is settled, please let the friends from the Ian society withdraw first. Linny Chen quickly walked up to Wang Chen, his gaze sweeping over the densely packed members of the Ian society in the venue, speaking in a low voice. With so many. People gathered here, it’s bound to attract unnecessary attention, which is not good for you and the officials. Wang Chen nodded slightly, understanding the situation. Since Officer Yun was already here, it was clear that things had become a foregone conclusion. It wasn’t a good look for the brothers of the Ian society to be here, for him and them, being involved with the Ian society was not a good thing, it wouldn’t look good on the surface. Wang Chen raised his hand to signal Linichen to wait a moment and step towards Xianghuaqing, who was quietly conversing with Xianglong and others not far away. Upon seeing… Him approach, Xiang Huaching spoke up, young master Wang, is there anything else? Uncle Xiang. Wang Chen’s gaze swept over the E and society members still on standby in the venue, and he lowered his voice. Now that the matter is resolved, it might not be convenient for the brothers to stay here. He paused and said apologetically, could you please arrange for everyone to withdraw first? Understood. Xiang. Huaching frowned at his words, then nodded in understanding. Wang Chen’s identity was indeed too sensitive. Moreover, there were leaders in the car, if this got out, although they couldn’t be held accountable, it would still cause quite a stir. He turned around and called Xianglong over, saying in a low voice, go tell the brothers to disperse immediately, be careful on the way, and don’t draw too much attention. Let’s Ah Hu take a few people to stay behind and clean up the scene. Xianglong was about to leave when Xianghuacin called him back. After Xianglong hurried away, Xianghuacin patted Wangchen’s shoulder, young. Master Wang, don’t worry, Xianglong will take people away right away. Under Xianglong’s arrangement, thousands of Ian society disciples began to head outside. As they passed by Inspector Chen and Zhang Xiong, they couldn’t help but provoke them, itching for a fight. The police dared not express their anger but could only watch them leave. Zhang Xiong’s face turned pale, he wasn’t a fool. The Ian society left just. Like that, and Inspector Chen and Director Huang showed no reaction, which spoke volumes. Director Fu had yet to get out of the car. This was serious. He took out his phone and quietly sent a message. Then, shaking his head helplessly at his son. Jung Ji Gang’s heart plummeted and his hands began to tremble. He had come to find trouble with Xiang Long and when people died he hadn’t panicked at all. Later, when his brothers suffered heavy casualties and he himself was seriously injured, he didn’t think much of it. He knew that in the end he would be the one to win. Xiang Long and the others wouldn’t be arrogant for long. So he hadn’t truly worried. But now he was genuinely panicking. The situation had developed completely differently from what he had initially planned. Even Officer Yun had arrived. Director Fu was in grave. Danger. He turned to look at Wang Chen, who was chatting and laughing with Xiang Hua Qing and the secretary in the distance. The problem lay with him. What was his identity that he could summon such a powerful figure? Zhang Jigang knew the Zhang family was likely doomed. He was doomed too. Zhang Jigang’s nails dug deep into his palm, but he suddenly saw Inspector Chen striding towards the black sedan. His heart jolted. He saw Inspector Chen raise his hand to open the car door, salute, and then pull Director Fu out of the car, with two armed police officers immediately stepping forward to restrain his wrists. They took him. Into custody directly. What are you doing? Director Fu’s collar was askew, his face flushed as he struggled, his dress shoes leaving chaotic marks on the ground. I brought you out, and now you’re here to arrest. Me? This is outrageous. Fu Desheen, with solid evidence, you might as well stop struggling. Suspected of embezzlement, bribery, and abuse of power. From today on, you are no longer qualified to give orders. Inspector Chen’s face was cold and he felt a bit of regret. Just 10 minutes ago, he was still the respected director Fu, and now he was about to become a prisoner. And it was he who had personally arrested him. Inspector Chen couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction. This man was a director, already a significant figure aside from the governor. Usually, he wouldn’t even give him a proper look. Who would have? Thought he was such a corrupt official behind the scenes? Truly deserving of his fate. At this moment, Secretary Shaolin had been nervously watching the situation from a distance. When he saw that the situation had been completely brought under control and Director Fu was being escorted to the police car, he let out a sigh of relief, then he and Wang Chen walked towards the car. As they approached, Director Fu saw Wang Chen and shouted angrily, Wang Chen, if you had said earlier that your dad is Wang Jianguo, would all this have happened? Don’t touch me. Fu Dishin suddenly burst into mad laughter, spitting as he spoke. Already said I’m Wang Chen, from the Wang family, and you didn’t take it seriously. Wang Chen shrugged helplessly and chuckled. Director Fu’s face instantly turned red, speechless. Indeed, Wang Chen had revealed. His family background from the start, but how could he have known that Wang Chen’s father was Wang Jianguo and his grandfather was Wang Zhajun? At first, he thought Wang Chen was from some unknown small family. Who would have guessed the terrifying background behind him? Fu Dishin tried to break free but was tightly held by the police, his hands already cuffed with silver bracelets. His eyes bulged as he stared fiercely. at wang chen as if he wanted to swallow him whole you bastard his entire life’s accumulation was ruined because of wang chen fu deshin shook the bracelet on his wrist and shouted angrily what you’re doing is illegal if i’ve committed a crime the integrity commission will come to me what right do you have to arrest me so what if you’re from the wang family the power in the capital is intricate don’t think the wang family can cover the sky with one hand you might also have a day like mine fu deshin’s eyes were filled with rage having hunted gis all his life only to be pecked by one today The Xiang family was originally his to control. After tonight’s turmoil, he could completely take over the Xiang family. Ian would be a core member among tens of thousands in Hong Kong plus hundreds of thousands of disciples overseas. In the future, whatever he wanted to do would be much easier with this support. On the surface, there was the Xiang family’s billions in assets. Coupled with the underground forces of the Xiang family, the road to success was right in front of him. Fu Dishin would not remain in the position of director. Rising to prominence would no longer be an empty phrase. Unfortunately, the plan was great but reality was cruel. If it weren’t for Wang Chen’s sudden appearance, he might have already succeeded. Heaven did not stand by his side. The Xiang family also took a different path because of Xiang’s was acquaintance with Wang Chen. He couldn’t even protect himself. With this person taking action and the Wang family’s support behind the scenes, Fu Dishin knew very well what he had done in the past. It was something that couldn’t withstand. Investigation. Even if he considered himself exceptionally clever, at this moment he was helpless. Even if that day comes, you won’t see it, Wang Chen said to Fu Dishin, his tone calm. He paid no attention to Fu Dishin’s predatory gaze. It was already destined for him to be a prisoner, unable to stir up any more trouble. No matter how he struggled and resisted, he was still taken to the car by the police and quickly drove out of the racecourse. Once in the car, Fu Dishin looked at the bright lights outside, gradually stopping his struggles. A hint of regret flashed in his eyes. Normally, a leader of his level wouldn’t lose composure in front of so many people. But after learning about Wang Chen’s background, he couldn’t help but feel despair. The Governor Yun was his direct superior, and now he was stepping in for Wang Chen. Plus there were other big shots in the car. These were figures he could only look up to. How had the road to success led him to such a deep abyss? After seeing Fu Dishin being pulled into the car, Shaolin, cautiously asked, Young Master Wang, how should we deal with Director Huang and the Zhang father -son duo? Inspector Chen is a good comrade, well regarded in the police community. He hesitated for a moment but, still added a word. Alright. Director Huang should investigate thoroughly, if there are issues, he must be severely punished. If he is a good official who truly cares for the people, don’t make things difficult. For him. Wang Chen didn’t mind, since he said this inspector was good, he didn’t care. Director Huang also gave him an opportunity, Director Huang followed Fu Dixing here today to handle this incident. Both. Publicly and privately, he should be here. As long as he hasn’t done anything wrong, Wang Chen won’t make things difficult for him. But if his hands are dirty, then he can’t blame Wang Chen. Director Huang dared. not breathe a word, watching as director Fu was taken away, trembling like a quail. Now he understood. He had offended the king of hell. He didn’t know how Wang Chen and the others would deal with him. Would they see him as Fu Dishin’s confidant and dispose of him as well? As soon as Wang Chen spoke, director Huang instantly breathed a sigh of relief. He indeed had some unsavory dealings behind him that couldn’t withstand. Screw to me. But as long as he wasn’t seen as Fu Dishin’s person, these matters wouldn’t lead him to a bullet’s end, ending up like Fu Dishin. young master wang you are magnanimous i i was bewitched before and helped fu deshin with some foolish things but it was all under duress director huang said gratefully as long as it’s something i know i will definitely speak without concealment i beg you to give me a chance to reform wang chen raised an eyebrow his gaze sweeping over director huang’s trembling shoulders since you are willing to cooperate with the investigation then go on your own all right all right i’ll go myself he suddenly raised his voice fearing that if he delayed even a second he would be forcibly escorted Under the guidance of several police officers, he arrived at a car, suddenly turning around too deeply. Bada Wang Chen, thank you, young master Wang, for your mercy. I will definitely tell the truth and conceal nothing. Saying this, he voluntarily sat in the back of the police car, his back straight as if it were not a prisoner transport but a journey to report on his duties. Wang Chen looked on with a black line on his forehead. It had to be said that he was indeed a seasoned player, truly adept at reading the situation. He was considered a top figure in Hong Kong and people from the underground world would call him brother. Yet his attitude at this moment was undeniably low. Inspector Chen stood by, alert and ready, his face full of pride. He had personally sent so many criminals to Stanley Prison and now he was just a small inspector precisely because he wasn’t too keen on the ways of the officialdom. Many things he couldn’t quite wrap his head around, saying that a rotten wood wasn’t too much. Therefore, his position had never risen. But he was quite fortunate now, otherwise he might have ended up alongside Fu Dixin and the others. Zheng Xiong and his son witnessed this scene, their faces looking worse than death. You, who exactly are you? Zheng Jigang, supported by his father Zheng Xiong, looked at Wang Chen and slowly spoke. Wang Chen looked down at him, suddenly chuckling lightly. What a fool. The situation had reached this point and Zheng Jigang still didn’t know his identity and background. It was simply absurd. Xiong. Zhao felt a bit of pity for this former enemy inside, saying, young master Wang’s father is Wang Jianguo, his grandfather, I don’t need to say more, right? Zhang Jigang’s pupils constricted violently, and Zhang Xiong, supporting him, suddenly tightened his grip. He looked at Xiang Zhao in disbelief. Xiang Zhao’s words struck like a bolt of lightning, fiercely penetrating their minds. So it was this Wang family. Zhang Jigang felt a bit dazed but wasn’t too surprised. The situation had developed to this point, and it was irretrievable. He subconsciously, or perhaps out of fear, couldn’t believe that Wang Chen was backed by this colossal entity. But the attitude of Xiang Zhao and the others towards Wang Chen and how he Xiaoxing had even secretly come to Hong Kong to meet him, along with the helicopter squadron that came for him, Fu Dishin’s hysterical voice still echoed in his mind. At this moment, he had to accept this cruel reality. Wang, Wang old man’s grandson? Zhang Xiong’s throat felt like it was stuck with phlegm, making it difficult to speak each word. His voice abruptly stopped. The metallic sweetness rising in his throat made him cough violently. Zheng Xiong forced a bitter smile. Old Master Wang. Back in the day, he had met. Him in a hall in the capital under the guidance of his elders. He was a very kind old man, but at that moment, he didn’t even dare to look into his eyes, and his legs trembled slightly. It was simply because he knew. All too well how terrifying this kind-hearted old man could be. Yet now, he had offended his grandson and had nearly lost his life. Despair washed over him. Wang Chen walked over slowly with his hands. In his pockets, looking down at the Zhang father and son who were slumped on the ground, his tone casual, Xiang Zhuo, Xiang Zhigang has caused you quite a bit of trouble over the years. How do you plan to deal with them? A flicker of hatred flashed in Xiang Zhuo’s eyes. He took out a dagger and squatted down in front of Xiang Zhigang, waving it slightly, after all these years of opposing me, did you ever think it would come to this? Don’t get too pleased with yourself, it’s just that you, Xiang Zhuo, are lucky. If it weren’t for Wang Chen, today it would be you, Xiang Zhuo, lying here. Xiang Zhigang took a deep breath and At that moment, he was also calm, come and kill me if you want, I’ll accompany you to the end. Man proposes, but heaven disposes, skills are no match for fate, what a pity. His father, Zhang Xiong, also, shook his head, somewhat lamenting. Yet a hint of regret still flashed in his eyes. But he had already sent a message to the family. They should be on their way to the cruise ship by now, it was just a pity. That such a large family business would suffer such a huge loss. Xiangzhu suddenly thrust the dagger towards Zhang Jigang. He slowly closed his eyes. However, the anticipated pain did not come, he opened his. Eyes to see the dagger stopped right in front of him, and he asked in confusion. You? You’ve got some backbone. Xiangzhu stared at the lingering ruthlessness in Zhang Jigang’s eyes and suddenly broke. Into a smile. The dagger flipped and was put away. No wonder you’ve been able to fight me for so many years, you’re not a coward. Xiangzhu turned to Wang Chan and rubbed his nose, I actually quite admire this. Kid, their family has considerable assets, why not make use of them for you? What do you think? Zhang Jigang and Zhang Xiong couldn’t help but show a hint of joy at Xiangzhu’s words. Who would want to die? When they could live? Moreover, now that they knew about Wang Qian’s terrifying background, they would be more than happy to pledge loyalty to him. They would never refuse. But they saw Wang Qian’s originally. Smiling face suddenly darken, staring at them intently. Zhang Jigang and Zhang Xiong’s hearts sank in an instant. Was this dissatisfaction with Xiangzhu’s proposal? Zhang Jigang gritted his teeth, moving his still, painful legs, ignoring the sharp pain, and said, Young Master Wang. The Zhang family’s jewelry business is well known globally, and my dad has even had drinks with your father. Considering this connection, please show some mercy, as long as you let us go, the Zhang family will follow you from now on. A smile appeared on Wang Chan’s face, the corners of his mouth lifting. He didn’t care about Zhang Jigang’s mention of their family connection. Not to mention his grandfather, even someone of Wang Zhanguo’s status had to dine with countless people throughout the year. If dining and drinking counted as favors, that would be absurd. However, his nature of seizing every opportunity to protect himself was commendable. He was quite a character. Your son says you’ve had meals with my dad? Wang Chen retracted his smile, his gaze. Coldly sweeping over Zhang Xiong. Yes, yes. Zhang Xiong’s face turned a bit embarrassed. Such trivial matters were being shared with Wang Zhanguo’s son just to save his own life. It was truly humiliating. If those old fellows found out, who knows if they would laugh their heads off. At this point, to save his life, he could only swallow his pride and admit it. Other concerns were forgotten. Loyalty? Wang Chen. Slowly shook his head, just based on you. Zheng Xiong quickly said, young master Wang, as long as you are willing to spare the Zheng family, I swear loyalty in my capacity as the head of the family. He. Gritted his teeth and continued, moreover, the Zheng family’s profits will be split with the Wang family every year, if you have any orders, I will go through fire and water to fulfill them. Half of the profits. Every year, Wang Chen lowered his gaze, staring at Zheng Xiong’s trembling hand, and suddenly chuckled. What great courage. To protect himself, he was willing to part with so much money. It’s just that I wonder. If this half of the profit amounts to hundreds of billions. Sounds tempting, Zheng Zhigang and Zheng Xiong looked at the contemplative Wang Chen, waiting for his answer. They were on pins and needles, wishing. He would agree immediately. Wang Chen activated his true eye, looking at the two. Their information instantly appeared before him. Name, Zheng Xiong, age, 65, height, 167 centimeters, charm, 60, physique, 56. Favorability, 72. Zhang Jigang, age, 35, height, 175 centimeters, charm, 81, physique, 89, favorability, 85. Wang Chen was somewhat surprised to see Zhang Jigang’s favorability. He originally wanted to see if he was genuinely submitting or just making a temporary concession. If there was a discrepancy between their words and actions, even if the Zhang family had some use, he wouldn’t let them off the hook. After all, letting a tiger return to the mountain brings endless troubles. However, with Zhang Xiong’s favorability reaching 72 points and Zhang Jigang’s even higher at 85 points, he felt reassured. Otherwise, Wang Chen really wouldn’t dare to accept their loyalty. There have been many instances in history where subordinates backstabbed their leaders. He had to be cautious. After a moment, Wang Chen slowly nodded and said, Seeing that you still have some use, I’ll spare your lives. As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Xiong finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Jigang suddenly knocked his head to the ground, making a dull sound. Thank you, young master Wang, for your mercy. Once I recover, I will come to see you in Magic City. When he raised his head, there was already a blood mark on his forehead, but he was completely oblivious. His eyes filled only with ecstasy. Let’s talk about it after you recover, Wang Chen nodded. Thank you, young master Wang, thank you. Remember, since you have pledged loyalty to my Wang family, you must know your limits in the future. Think clearly about what should be done and what shouldn’t. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences. Yes, yes. Zhang Jigang and his son repeatedly assured, not daring, to be careless, taking it to heart. Take your men and leave, don’t linger here and be an eyesore. Can young master Wang add your contact information? It would be easier for me to reach you later. Wang Chen left him the phone number of the family steward and waved his hand. Zhang Xiong and Zhang Jigang expressed their gratitude. After untying their little brothers not far away, they helped each other and left in a sorry state. Yet, there was no anger or regret in Zhang Jigang and Zhang Xiong’s eyes, only surprise and excitement. They had thought that after tonight, the Zhang family would completely lose the market in, Hua Gua and flee overseas. Their father and son would either die at the hands of the Xiang family or rot in prison, ending their miserable lives. But unexpectedly, Wang Chen accepted their loyalty, and Zhang Xiong, couldn’t help but Tsai, taking out his phone to send a message to the family. No need to escape anymore. Especially now that they had hooked onto the Wang family’s aircraft carrier. Who could stop their development? In Hua Gua in the future. After arriving outside the racecourse, looking at the bustling traffic and the neonlit night scene of Hong Kong, Zheng Jigang couldn’t help but burst into hearty laughter. He felt. As if the sky was wide and the sea was vast. Linny Chen saw that Wang Chen had handled things well enough and came over to Inspector Chen, instructing, send some people to tidy up the venue. Yes, I will ensure. The task is completed. Inspector Chen immediately understood. What he meant by things was self-evident. Now, the venue of the racecourse was empty, only the bodyguards brought by Xiang Hua Xiang and his few. 100 colleagues remained. However, Zheng Jigang had brought so many little brothers, yet in the end, he only took away this few people. The ground was littered with corpses, haphazardly placed from the entrance, all the way up to the VIP box. It was simply a sight too gruesome to behold. It was not an exaggeration to call it a hell on earth. Inspector Chen felt utterly bewildered, so many people to clean up. How long? Will it take? Fortunately, there are many people brought tonight, otherwise, it wouldn’t be finished by dawn. He instructed several sheriffs to take dozens of people to handle the situation. The sheriff whose name he called instantly looked dejected, reluctantly leading the team to deal with the corpses and blood scattered everywhere. Luckily, they were all professionally trained. Handling such matters was incredibly simple for them. Wang Chen observed their nimble movements and couldn’t help but be a bit surprised, they truly were professionals. No one had likely encountered such a scene before, and ordinary people would be overwhelmed by the smell. Yet, they remained unfazed, retrieving bag after bag from the police cars. At this speed, it seemed the horse racing event tomorrow night could proceed as planned. There would be no delay. In making money, Commissioner Yun and several leaders are still waiting for you in the car, what do you think? Shaolin stood beside Wang Chen, lowering his voice. Wang Chen raised his eyes to the dark-tinted, windows of the stretched limousine. It was unclear from the outside. He couldn’t see anything. Seeing that things were nearly wrapped up, Wang Chen stepped towards the long black car. These few had helped. Him immensely. Although they came because of his family’s reputation, it was only right and proper for him to exchange a few pleasantries. He had to show some courtesy. These old fellows were quite good at maintaining their stature. They had been here for quite a while, firmly seated like Mountai, refusing to get out of the car until he approached. Wang Chen wasn’t angry or felt that they were trying to put him on the spot. After all, this incident, while not trivial, had resulted in over a hundred deaths, qualifying it as a particularly serious violent event. He would certainly be fine and wasn’t afraid of others making a fuss. Even if someone found out, they wouldn’t dare target him. But they were different. The cruelty of the officialdom was unimaginable to most, as long as one hadn’t reached the highest position. Who wasn’t walking? On thin ice? Being cautious was never a bad thing. Secretary Shaolin opened the car door for Wang Chen first. After Wang Chen got in, Shaolin quickly closed the door and stood straight outside, guarding it. In the distance, Inspector Chen was directing his subordinates to clean up the venue. Of course, most people were on alert by the car, not daring to leave an inch, fearing something might go wrong. At that moment, Xiang Zhuling noticed that He Xiaoshin’s face had turned a bit pale. She walked closer and asked with concern, Xiaoshin, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? No. I, vomit. He Xiaoshin clutched her stomach and retched a couple of times while rising in her throat. She bit her lower lip hard, her nails digging deep into her palm, her peripheral vision sweeping over the police officers cleaning up the bodies. She felt even more nauseous. Her stomach twisted violently and she suddenly turned away from the scene, beads of sweat forming on her eyelashes. Xiang Junling wanted to help her into the car to rest but was rejected by her raised hand. I, I just need to stand for a while, He Xiaoshin said slowly, catching her breath. Initially, she had been captivated by the chaos and Wang Chen’s handsome figure, completely unaware of the bodies lying in the shadows. Now, upon a sudden glance, she almost fainted. Xiang Junling patted her back, unable to suppress a chuckle. She had thought He Xiaoshin was fearless but it turned out she just hadn’t seen. Xiaoshin, are you really okay? You look frighteningly pale. Really? I’m fine, just, just a bit dizzy. Hi Xiaoshin forced a smile, but her voice was weak. This was no mere dizziness, she was. Clearly terrified by the bloody and brutal scene. Don’t be afraid, it’s okay now. Xiang Zhuling tightly hugged her, softly comforting her. Xiang Zhuo saw this and sent a bodyguard to the back kitchen of the horse. Racing event to find some cold drinks and brought over a few chairs. After Hi Xiaoshin took a sip of the chill juice, she finally felt a bit better, though her little face still looked pitiful. Xiang Huaqiang. shook his head helplessly. This was indeed his oversight, as the little girl was inherently afraid of such things, even if she is the daughter of the Yi family, it cannot be an exception. After all, the upbringing of sons and daughters is different. A group of bodyguards, under the command of Xianghua Xiang, stood in a line, completely isolating this section of space within the venue. As Wang Chan got into the car, he saw three elderly men in their fifties smiling at him. They were dressed very casually, in plain clothes, yet it was hard to hide the imposing aura of authority they exuded. This car was clearly a specially customized model with understated yet luxurious interior decor. In front of him, the central control panel had three side-by-side touchscreens, synchronously switching between real-time monitoring footage of the horse racing event. Wang Chen understood. Clearly, these gentlemen were well aware of the situation outside. I am Yun Jian, you should know me, the man in front, Yun Jian, spoke first, turning to look at. Wang Chen with a friendly smile. Hello, Officer Yun. Wang Chen was not polite and directly sat in an empty chair. He then shook hands with him. Yun Jian continued, pointing to the somewhat robust middle-aged man on the left, introducing, this is Commander Chen Jingde, the helmsman of the warzone, with remarkable military achievements. Chen Jingde nodded slightly, his gaze sharp, although it was just a simple action, it revealed a calmness and confidence born from years of experience in battle. Yun Jian then pointed to the elderly man on the right, this is Luo Guixien, the Z committee, Luo Guixien smiled and extended his hand, saying, young man, not bad, finally meeting the real person today. Being able to step up in critical moments and take on responsibility is what it takes to achieve great things. Not at all. It’s all thanks to the support of my elders behind me, otherwise, I wouldn’t have this confidence. Wang Chen scratched his head and humbly replied. Chen Zhengde looked at Wang Chen, his eyes filled with scrutiny. And a hint of appreciation, and said, we all saw your performance on site today, it was very bold and strategic, so don’t be modest. The more he looked at Wang Chen, the more he liked him. If only his own unruly. Suns had even a fraction of Wang Chen’s qualities, he would be content. Luo Guixian took over the conversation, sitting upright in his chair, his gaze gentle yet sharp, boldness and strategy are one aspect. But Xiao Wang, what’s even more commendable is your composure in the face of danger, that’s truly praiseworthy. Old Luo is right, your adaptability today deserves a thumbs up from me. He suddenly pulled up a video, showing Wang Chan’s earlier performance in the VIP box. Luo Guixian pointed at the video, a satisfied smile on his face, Xiao Wang, you remain so calm in such a complex situation, that’s not something, just anyone can do. He gently patted Wang Chen’s shoulder, his eyes full of admiration. Wang Chen smiled a bit shyly, old Luo, you flatter me. I was quite nervous at the time, I just thought I couldn’t lose my composure and had to handle things well. Nervousness is normal, Chen Zhengde said with a smile, but being able to maintain a clear mind and make the right judgment under pressure is true skill. He picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and continued, today, you’ve truly opened our eyes, the Wang family has a successor. Don’t blame us for coming late, the old man instructed us that since you happened to arrive. In Hong Kong, you should witness a grand scene, Officer Yun said at this moment, looking at Wang Chen with a sense of admiration. One could only say that the old man Wang was indeed unique in his methods of nurturing his successor. Was he not afraid of any accidents? After all, Wang’s generation only had this one boy. What if something went wrong? He didn’t want to imagine the kind of earthquake it would cause throughout. Hua Gua. The old man’s words were that the Wang family’s sons must see blood, a greenhouse cannot grow towering trees. Wang Chen nodded. He knew that the late arrival of support was definitely due to the old man’s instructions behind the scenes. In such a small place, how could they possibly arrive so late? However, Wang Chen couldn’t help but complain about the old man’s arrangements. If it weren’t for his enhanced physical abilities, it was hard to say what would happen if someone else were in his place. He wasn’t worried about his precious grandson’s safety at all. What a mischievous old man, Chen Zhengde seemed to see, through Wang Chen’s thoughts. He continued, his expression serious and with a hint of pride, but rest assured, when you two clash, the sky around will be filled with helicopters, this time, a special forces unit has been deployed. The best snipers in the military are always aiming at every person who could be a threat to you. If there’s even the slightest disturbance, those with ill intentions will be precisely taken. Out in an instant. He paused slightly, looking deeply at Wang Chen. From the moment your father received the information to the old man’s orders, every move you make is under our control. In terms of safety, we will not be the slightest bit negligent. This is also the old man’s command to let you gain experience while ensuring you are not in real danger. Yun Jian added, For this arrangement, even satellites have been used just to ensure everything goes flawlessly. He glanced at the surveillance footage inside the car where the bodyguards were still clearing the chaotic scene in the venue. Everything today has been meticulously planned, including the appearance of Fu Dishin, which was within our expectations. We just wanted to see how you would handle a crisis. It turns out you performed exceptionally well. Not only. Did you perfectly handle the unexpected situation but you also displayed a composure far beyond your age? Luo Guixin smiled at Wang Chen, his eyes filled with anticipation. After this, I believe you will be very satisfied and happy. Wang Chen felt a surge of emotion. He had thought he was fighting alone but he didn’t expect such a powerful support force behind him. So that’s how it is. He had thought the old man was truly heartless, not caring about his safety at all. It turned out he had overthought it. I still have to thank all of you leaders. Wang Chen sat up straight and said firmly. Yun Jian waved his hand, there’s no need to be so formal, we can be considered your elders, so feel free to come to us in the future. After chatting with a few elders for a while, Wang Qian got out of the car and waved to those. Inside. Young master Wang, will be leaving now. Shaolin smiled at Wang Qian as he opened the passenger door and got in. Soon, the car drove away smoothly. A few black sedans followed behind. Wang Qian stood. In place, watching the black sedans disappear around the corner and only turned around after the sound of the engines faded. Seeing the row of people forming a wall, he couldn’t help but be taken aback. He. Asked, what’s going on? Xiao Xan might be feeling a bit unwell, you know how girls can be, Xiang Yu shrugged in replied nonchalantly. Wang Chen looked at Yi Xiao Xan, who was sitting in a chair, holding a. Bottle of drink and sipping it slowly. Her face looked a bit pale. Is she sick? Approaching her, he noticed the drink she was having was still cold. Wang Chen’s brows furrowed tightly as he glared at Xiang Yu. You let Xiao Xan drink this when she’s not feeling well? What’s wrong with drinking this? Xiang Yu replied, looking confused. He Chao Aixian also looked at Wang Chen with a dazed expression, instinctively taking a few more sips of her drink. Wang Chen didn’t respond, instead, he reached out and snatched the ice cold cola from her hand, throwing it on the ground beside them. The sound of the bottle hitting the ground. Startled He Chao Aixian, and she pouted, hitting Wang Chen, what are you doing? I still want to drink it. Wang Chen took a step back and said calmly, you shouldn’t drink ice cold cola during your period. Now that. The situation is resolved, just go home and rest well. He Chao Xan suddenly froze, her ears visibly turning red, you, who told you I was on my period. Wang Chen looked a bit puzzled.He Chaoxin’s fingers. Hubbard in the air, neither striking nor retracting, the crimson flush on her ears creeping down her neck into her collar. I say, young master Wang, can’t you be a bit more perceptive? Xiang Junling had somehow. Swayed over to Wang Chen’s side, her bright red nail-polished fingers mercilessly poking his shoulder. She gestured towards the police, Chaoxin is disgusted by the corpses everywhere, it’s not her time of the month. Wang Chen was momentarily stunned. He really hadn’t noticed such simple and obvious things. Feeling a bit embarrassed, he awkwardly said, uh, sorry, humph. He Chaoxin’s already red ears burned hotter. Glaring at Wang Chen in a mix of shame and anger. Well, since everything’s settled, shall we head home first? Wang Chen rubbed his nose, trying to mask his embarrassment. Xiang Zhao stifled her laughter, her. Shoulders shaking as she pulled out her phone to take frantic pictures of the two, this moment must be saved, the famous Wang Chen, the new internet heartthrob, showing concern for a beauty during her time of. The month, what a classic straight man moment. He Chaoxin was provoked by Xiang Zhao’s words and suddenly stood up, but in her fluster, her high-heeled foot twisted. She stumbled forward. Instinctively, Wang. Chen reached out to catch her waist, a faint fragrance wafting towards him, and he could even feel her heartbeat quickening from embarrassment and anger. Let go of me. He Chaoxin struggled to pull back, but Wang. Chen held her wrist firmly. He looked down and noticed her foot was awkward, his brow furrowing instantly, did you twist your ankle? Without waiting for He Chaoxin to respond, Wang Chen instinctively picked. Hurrah, his movements gentle yet unyielding. He Chaoxing gasped and wrapped her arms around his neck, her cheek nearly pressed against his chest. Wang Chen, she protested, her face flushed, catching a glimpse of Xiang Junling and Xiang Yu’s mischievous smiles as they watched, put me down, I can walk by myself. Wang Chen raised an eyebrow at the flustered girl in his arms, really can walk? Put me down, I’m fine. Alright. He Chaoxing stood up, her face still red, not daring to look at Wang Chen. You young people. Aunt Xiang coughed twice at the right moment, deliberately elongating her tone, her gaze scrutinizing the. 2. If you want to show off your affection, go home and do it, it’s really hard to watch. Let’s go, if we keep talking, Chaoxin will be too shy. Aunt Xiang and Xiang Junling teased. Embarrassed, he Chaoxin. Dared not look at Wang Chen any longer. She hurriedly walked towards the car, her high heels clicking as she moved quickly. Wang Chen watched, inwardly scoffing. She really didn’t twist her ankle. He shook his head. Smiling helplessly. How self-indulgent. Wang Chen, Xiang Zhao, and Xiang Yu sat in a Maybach as the driver started the engine. V room. V room. V room. The Maybach trembled slightly before speeding. Out. Upon arriving outside the racecourse, it was nearly midnight. In the distance, neon signs flickered with colorful lights, painting the night sky in vibrant hues. The streets of Hong Kong were still bustling. With crowds, lively as ever. Most shops along the streets were still open. Food stalls were packed with customers, the rich aroma wafting through the air, creating a lively atmosphere. vehicles flowed continuously. On the road, one could still see the iconic double-decker buses of Hong Kong. The midnight streets of Hong Kong never dimmed in splendor, the liveliness as vibrant as ever. On their way back, Wang Chen’s car took a detour to Mary Hospital. Under Xiang Zhao’s instructions, Lang Fong was in the best VIP special care ward, costing 20,000 Hong Kong dollars a day, equipped with a professional nursing team, and comfortable rooms. It had everything from a private bathroom to a sofa and wardrobe. Looking out the window, one was greeted with breathtaking sea views and listening to the sound of the waves made one feel much better, sleeping soundly. A good environment was very beneficial for the patient’s recovery. Xiang Zhao and Xiang Yu went to visit the brothers who had come with Leng Feng. Wang Chan walked into Leng Feng’s. Ward. Young Master Wang, what brings you here? As soon as Wang Chan entered, he was spotted by the sharp-eyed Leng Feng, who was quite pleased. Things are almost settled, so I thought I’d come see you. How are you doing? Are you alright? Wang Chen looked at the bandages wrapped all over Leng Feng’s body and asked with concern. As long as you’re fine, young master, I’ll be okay after resting for a couple of days. It’s just. Leng Feng felt a bit ashamed, you still have to go to Macau and I can’t accompany you. How about contacting some brothers to come to Hong Kong overnight to ensure your safety? I’m not at ease. With you going to Macau alone. Wang Chen shook his head and smiled, after this incident, they will definitely be well prepared over there. Just rest assured and focus on your recovery. Leng Feng tried to sit. up despite the pain but wang chen pressed down on his shoulder to stop him you’re covered in injuries so don’t push yourself your health is the priority as he pulled at his wounds a beat of sweat appeared on long feng’s forehead but he seemed to be oblivious to the pain looking at wang chen with a cheerful expression his eyes filled with tears of gratitude how many bosses in the world would care for their subordinates like this he felt he had no way to repay wang chen’s kindness only hoping to recover quickly so he could return to his boss’s side and work for him again damn it if you keep this up i’ll just leave Wang Chen joked, scolding him lightly. I see you’re not in too bad shape. I’ll arrange for someone to send you back to the magic city tomorrow. Wang Chen found a chair and sat down. Where is your hometown? I’ll give you a few months off to spend some quality time with your wife and kids. My hometown is in Shandong. Thinking about how he couldn’t do anything now and was just dragging young master down, lying. Feng felt a bit moved. It was just right to go home and spend time with his family. They still didn’t know how badly he was injured, if they found out, he couldn’t imagine how his wife would react. The thought. made Lengfong feel a pang of sadness, feeling guilty towards his family. It was only after following Wang Chen that he had earned quite a bit of money. Otherwise, he had been away for years, unable to be with his family often, and even neglecting his wife and children. Wang Chen reminded him to rest well, repeatedly emphasizing that there was no need to rush back to work. Then, noticing it was getting late, he decided not to disturb him any further. Back in the car, after Xiang Zhao and Xiang Yu came out, the Maybok smoothly drove off into the distance. Wang Chen was too lazy to find a hotel and followed Xiang Zhao back to his home. The villa was brightly lit. Xiang Tai, Xiang Zhuling, and others were waiting in the living room, and as expected, He Chaoxin was also there. Xiang Tai had long instructed the butler to prepare a late-night snack. The table was filled with dim sum, snacks, and noodles. Xiang Tai and Xiang Hua Xiang called the children to come and sit at the dining table. Wang Chen didn’t stand on ceremony. After a long night, he felt hungry and since they were all family, he didn’t bother with etiquette. He dug in heartily. Xiang Zhao and Xiang Yu were even less concerned about their manners, asking the butler to bring out several dishes of grilled steak and skewers, and other delicacies. He Chaoxin and Xiang Junling covered their mouths in giggle, then also started eating delicately like proper ladies. After a satisfying meal, He Chaoxin and Xiang Junling chatted about something, laughing and playing as they went to her room. Xiang Hua Xiang, Xiang Zhao Wang Chen sat down on the sofa. After brewing a pot of tea for the few of them, Xiang Tai, looking tired, walked away. It was nearly 2 in the morning and she was too lazy to manage their affairs, heading off to wash up and rest. After pouring tea for his father and Wang Chen, Xiang Zhao poured himself a cup, earning an eye roll from Xiang Yu. He scoffed, childish. Xiang Hua Zhang’s face darkened when he saw his child. He shot them a few annoyed glances. Xiang Zhao and Xiang Yu were over 10 years. Older than Wang Chen, yet they didn’t know how to be more composed. They seemed carefree and thoughtless. How could he hand over the family business to them in the future? Wang Chen, at just 20, already had. The maturity and insight typical of someone from the older generation handling matters with great finesse. In comparison, it was truly like heaven and earth, the gap is not just significant. Xianghua Xiang shook. His head inside. If these two kids had even a third of Wang Chen’s skills, he could confidently hand over the company to them a hundred years later. For now, he could only keep pushing them a bit. After that, Xianghua Xiang stopped paying attention to their antics. Looking at Wang Chen, he said, young master Wang, the Xiang family will also share half of the profits with you in the future, how does that sound? The Zheng family had given half of their profits just to save their lives. The Zheng family certainly couldn’t compare to the Xiang family, but Xianghua Xiang had to show some humility. Regardless of whether Wang Chen would accept it, he had to give it a try. What if, he didn’t dare to gamble. Moreover, with the Wang family’s support behind them, the company would surely develop better and better. Offering half the profits. Might even earn more than they currently did. Wang Chen picked up his cup and took a sip of the tea, the fragrance filling his mouth. He looked at Xianghua Xiang, shook his head, and with a hint of a smile said, Uncle Xiang, you’re joking. The Xiang family’s ability to establish a foothold in Hong Kong relies on your thunderous methods, the Wang family won’t be able to offer much help. Besides, I’m brothers with Xiang Zhao, discussing these matters would hurt our feelings. A smile appeared on Xianghua Xiang’s face. Wang Chen was being too modest, but he still appreciated it in his heart. Uncle understands your meaning. Xianghua Xiang raised his hand and patted Wang Chen’s shoulder, but what should be given still needs to be given, otherwise, that old rascal Zhang Xiang will surely laugh at me. Upon hearing this, Wang. Chen pondered for a moment and slowly said, in that case, let’s make it 30%. Otherwise, I won’t take a single cent. Ah, good, good. Xianghua Xiang laughed heartily, what about the Yian Association? Speaking of which, my brother Xianghua Xiang is in charge of most of the Yian Association’s affairs and has been overseas for these years. If needed, I can have him come back immediately. No need, the Yian association was what it was before, and it will be the same in the future. Wang Chen waved his hand to refuse, I know nothing about associations, it’s better if you all handle it. There will be many places where the Yian association will be needed in the future, but let’s leave it as it is domestically, Xiang Hua Zhang’s expression shifted slightly, and the hand holding the teacup paused. Did Wang Chen have other ideas? He looked at Wang Chen with interest. It was hard to gauge his true thoughts, someone like Wang Chen, a second generation heir, generally looked down on associations like the Yian association. But, looking at Wang Chen’s demeanor, it seemed like he had other plans? The Yian Association can be bolder overseas, the number of disciples can be increased a bit more. Wang Chen didn’t keep them guessing and spoke. Uh, after a pause, he continued, Uncle Xiang, what do you think someone like me lacks the most? Wang Chen lifted the teacup, watching the tea leaves floating and sinking on the water’s surface, suddenly, chuckling softly. He raised his eyes to look out the window, Hong Kong in the dusk was still bustling with traffic, neon signs casting colorful shadows on the glass, it’s not about money, nor is it about women. His fingertips lightly tapped the table, it’s the true power that can bring peace to one’s heart. Xiang Huaqiang’s grip on the teacup slowly tightened, his pupils contracting in shock. His heart was like a raging sea. He knew this young man, Wang Chen, was not simple, but he didn’t expect that he was interested in more than just a simple yian association. What is the power that brings peace to the heart? It could only be guns and men. Was Wang Chen planning to form his own armed group overseas? After careful thought, Xiang Huaqiang felt it might not be impossible. The yian. Association had been involved in many activities overseas, operating in grey areas, with people and funds in place. Forming an armed group wouldn’t be difficult. But what worried Xiang Huashan was that what Wang Chen wanted might not be that simple. Did he want to target a few small countries? Or, was he out of his mind? This is the 21st century. With the United Nations around, it wouldn’t be so easy to do such things, the various. Relationships were not well coordinated and they couldn’t just shut their mouths. Under the pressure of public opinion, one could easily be ruined. Especially with America and its neighbor Russia. They have always viewed the world as their own garden, willing to do anything for their interests. However, he thought carefully. With the Wang family’s connections and resources, it might really work. Xiangzhuat and Xiangyu usually seemed frivolous but that didn’t mean they were ignorant young masters. On the contrary, they were quite clever. If someone really thought they were foolish, they would be gravely mistaken. After Wangqin spoke, they instantly understood. This was a disdain for the power of the Ian society. wanting to stir up trouble. The two were quite excited, their faces slightly flushed. Throughout history, receiving a mandate from heaven, may one. Live long and prosper. These nine characters have caused countless heroes to shed blood, all for the chance to sit in that supreme position. Since the unification of the nine provinces by the first emperor, various warlords and tyrants have fought fiercely. Land. It is the desire etched. Deepen the bloodline of Yen and Huang. In modern society, with a wealthy nation and strong people, most choose to live their small lives well. enjoying a comfortable existence. The struggle for supremacy seems like a thing of the past, feeling very distant. But as long as there is an opportunity, which man in the world can resist such temptation, to be a lord and a general. A true man born in chaotic times should wield a three-foot -long sword and achieve extraordinary feats. A thousand years ago, when Shen Shen and Wu Guang shouted, do lords and ministers have any special qualities? Who hasn’t dreamed of such a thing? What if it were oneself? Why can’t it be oneself? The world is vast and there is plenty of space. to make one’s mark. On the other side of the sea, there is land, resources, and population. As long as you have the ability and ambition, what is there to worry about not achieving greatness? They have people in the Ian society, but lack a strong background and the necessary talents and resources. But as long as the Wang family is willing, these are not problems. They have money, they have people. The two brothers are willing to swear to follow him to the death. They also want to stir up the winds and clouds of the world. As soon as Wangchen speaks, they can hardly wait to go abroad. Thinking of this, Xiangzhuo and Xiangyu looked at Wang Chen with fiery eyes, their fists tightly clenched, their minds involuntarily, starting to think about which piece of land would be better. Should they go to Africa? Or Australia? Or stir up trouble in the Middle East? Wang Chen could tell what they were thinking just by looking at their expressions. He blew on his teacup, leisurely cleared his throat, and said, I have plenty of money on my side, let’s transfer 100 billion to the Ian Society’s account first. If further development is insufficient later, we can add more. Purchase weapons and train personnel. I want elite forces, I don’t want any misfits. Break it down into smaller. Units. I want to see the Ian Society’s presence in every corner of the world. Xianghua Zhang’s Adam’s apple moved, his fingertips unconsciously. Rubbing the teacup and he suddenly chuckled, 100 billion to buy guns and cannons? Are you trying to turn the Ian Society into a private, mercenary army? Wang Chen put down the teacup, the porcelain clinking against the wooden table with a clear sound. He shook his head and. smiled, on the surface, we will still do what we originally did, everything remains the same, we just need a few of our own forces in the chaotic, places of the world. Xiang Huashan instantly understood Wang Chen’s thoughts, letting out a sigh of relief, as long as he didn’t intend to, challenged the world order, that was fine, otherwise, his little heart couldn’t take it. What if we play a bit bigger? Xiang Yu said somewhat. Disappointedly, tentatively suggesting, get a bit more armed, what do you think? I happen to think the land in Australia is good, rich in mineral. resources, and has a small population, why don’t we try to see if we can seize it? Smack! Xianghua Xiang instantly slapped him on the head. Xiang Yu hugged his head and shouted, why did you hit me? Seize Australia? Why don’t you seize the moon? Back then, it was such a hassle just. To grab a few docks, you still want to bite off Australia? Xianghua Xiang was exasperated, slapping his head again, how did he end up with such a. Son? He didn’t even consider how great the resistance to this matter would be. Regardless of whether Wang Chen had that idea or not, taking it slow. is currently the best approach. Everything can be discussed once the strength is sufficient. Xiang Zhao was stifling laughter, his shoulders shaking. When suddenly Xiang Huaqiang turned and glared at him, and you, don’t think I don’t know you’ve been hoarding firearms and ammunition at home. What a troublesome thing. Xiang Zhao’s face turned pale. How did his father know he had bought some toys? To prevent Xiang Huaqiang from finding out, he claimed he was not focused on his work, but he didn’t use family connections, it was all through friends in other places. He thought. It was foolproof, but no one knew. Wang Chen leisurely sipped from his teacup, watching the Xiang brothers flail about like headless chickens, unable to suppress a smile at the corners of his mouth. Remember. Xiang Hua Xiang said helplessly, this isn’t the last century, satellites in. The sky can clearly capture what color underwear you’re wearing today. Wang Chen added, having a bit of power in hand is enough just to be on. The safe side. If you want to stir up trouble, you need to wear a suit and tie. Wear a suit. Xiang Zhao stroked his chin, deep in thought. But wearing a suit wouldn’t help him do what he wanted. The spark of ambition that had just ignited in his heart was extinguished. He shook his head. And sighed. Wenqian was too lazy to waste more words with these two daydreamers pulling out his phone to send a message to Long Lily, instructing. Her to transfer the money into the relevant account of the Ian Association. Soon, he received a text notification on his phone. The systems. Prompt also chimed in at the right moment. Ding. The system has detected that the host has spent 1 billion, with a double cashback of 2. Billion dot. Ding. Congratulations, the host has earned 1 million system points. In the guest room of the Xiang family villa, after taking a shower, Wang Chin draped a bathrobe over himself and sat on a lounge chair to collect his thoughts, then called out in his mind, system, open the personal information panel. Ding. Okay, host, your personal information panel is now open. Host, Wang Chin age, 20 height, 188 cm charm, 120, normal. Human limit is 100, physique, 120, normal human limit is 100, stamina, 120, normal human limit is 100, entries, double cashback, entry, effect, all reasonable expenditures will be refunded double dot, limitless physique, entry effect, from this moment on, you are the pinnacle of human, physique dot, solidification, entry effect, your physical state will always be at its peak, eye of truth, entry effect, the mysterious power that, opens the door to truth, all disguises will be exposed under its gaze. Joy of the Machine Soul, Entry Effect. Demoness in the World. Entry Effect, King of Games, Entry Effect. Basketball Star, Entry Effect. Master of Memory, Entry Effect. Big. Eater, Entry Effect, Master of Time Management, Entry Effect. Points, 2, 463, 831. Huasha Currency, 61, 651, 479, 524. Wangchen looked at the long string of points on the system panel and couldn’t help but be amazed. The high -level roulette costs 10,000. Points for one spin. After accumulating for so long, he now had 246,000 points and that was without any deliberate spending. If Wang Chen were to spend freely, he could have as many points as he wanted. Tonight, when they encountered trouble brought by Shang, Ji Gang and his group, with hundreds against a dozen, it was thanks to the brothers fighting to protect each other. Although there were arrangements. From home, with special forces secretly providing protection but this sense of insecurity still made Wang Chen feel anxious. On the surface, those. who knew his identity didn’t have the guts to confront him, yet there were always a few who were blind to the danger. Even though Wang Chen had extreme attributes, he was still a mortal. A bullet could kill him. No matter how you put it, he needed to have the ability to protect himself. Tonight, he would spend all these points, with over 2 million points, he would use them all for the lottery, which should yield some good attributes. Wang Chen didn’t have high demands. He didn’t expect to draw a double cashback attribute again, one of those rule-type attributes. As long. as he could obtain something that would allow him to survive under the threat of firearms, an attribute that would make him unafraid of ordinary. Guns would suffice. Wang Chen searched through the system panel. In the system log, he found the points record. Since gaining the system after his rebirth, he had accumulated a total of 3 ,637,331 points. He was still over 6 million points away from upgrading the system, which was over 6 billion Hua Xia coins. Wang Chen activated the advanced roulette lottery. Suddenly, a dazzling golden light appeared before him, spreading wildly. Like boiling water. As the light dimmed, it slowly coalesced into an ancient and mysterious roulette that kept spinning. An indescribable mysterious. Aura spread out, gradually calming Wang Chen’s excited heart. System, with over 2 million points, let me go all in. Ding! 2,460,000 points. Have been deducted. The system is starting the lottery. The golden roulette before him began to spin, and it spun faster and faster. The roulette. suddenly erupted with a sound like a bell ringing. The points decreased at a visible speed. Suddenly, Wang Chen’s pupils constricted as he saw. Mysterious runes appear on the surface of the roulette, and behind it, a phantom giant hand vaguely emerged, reaching into the unknown through the hazy light mist. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have won 1.06 billion Hua Xia coins. Ding. Thank you for your patronage. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have received one loyalty card. Ding. Thank you for your patronage. Ding. Thank you for your patronage. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the attribute Rapid Healing. Ding. Thank you for your patronage. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have won a luxury villa in Hong Kong’s Repulse Bay. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have won 880 million Hua Xia coins. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have won a luxury villa in Hong Kong’s Deep Water Bay. Ding. Thank you for your patronage. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the attribute X-Ray Vision. ding congratulations host you have obtained the attribute absolute barrier firearm nullification ding thank you for your patronage ding congratulations host you have obtained the attribute underwater breathing ding congratulations host you have obtained the attribute spicy king ding congratulations host you have won 1.88 billion huashua coins ding congratulations host you have obtained one attribute upgrade card ding Congratulations, host, you have won 680 million Hua Xia coins. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have won 1.29 billion Hua Xia coins. Ding. Congratulations, host, you have won 2.84 billion Hua Xia coins. As the roulette stopped spinning, various attributes and items appeared before him. Wang Chen was overjoyed, he didn’t care at all about the wealth and villas he had won in this. Lottery. He was just fixated on those few attributes, feeling extremely excited. Rapid healing, attribute effect, after you are injured, the healing. speed of your wounds is three times that of an ordinary person x-ray vision attribute effect ordinary objects will not be able to block your line of sight absolute barrier firearm nullification attribute effect no matter what gun it is it cannot harm you underwater breathing attribute effect you will receive the blessing of the sea moving freely underwater as if on land spicy king attribute effect the legendary devil pepper is just a snack for you wong chen looked at the description of the entry absolute barrier firearm nullification and smiled with satisfaction. The system really treated him well. Whatever he wanted, the corresponding entry appeared. With the absolute barrier. Firearm nullification rule type entry. As long as Wang Chin didn’t act recklessly and run into the battlefield, his safety would definitely be guaranteed. As long as there was no war, no tanks, or planes deployed, he had nothing to fear. Moreover, he also had the rapid healing entry. With his physical condition, if something like tonight happened again and he was surrounded by hundreds of thugs, he could quickly heal from any unexpected. injuries. It was as if his body had undergone genetic optimization. This was a threefold healing speed. It was truly absurd. One could say that. Most human diseases would be no match for Wang Chen. The x-ray vision entry was also decent. Although it wasn’t particularly useful for him, it was. Better than nothing. He couldn’t just go peeking at the girls, after all. He wasn’t that kind of person. The underwater breathing entry was. Also good. In the future, he wouldn’t need to bring equipment for diving. However, the spicy king entry felt somewhat useless, a bit of a waste. If Wang Chin didn’t have the terrifying identity of the Wang family, he could have gained attention by live streaming himself eating extremely spicy food. But he had no use for it at all. After binding the entries he had obtained, Wang Chin felt a warm current surge within his body. It was so comfortable that he almost let out a moan. Buzz. Buzz. Buzz. Suddenly, Wang Chin’s phone vibrated a few times. He glanced at it, it was a bank notification. Industrial and commercial bank reminds you, your account has been credited 8,630,000,000, your account balance is 70 ,281,479,524. Huaxia coins. Wang Chen took a look but didn’t pay much attention. With over 7 billion in cash, even Wang Zhang will probably didn’t have that much. If he knew Wang Chen had so much cash, he would surely be shocked, and no matter how hard he thought, he wouldn’t figure out where the money came from. However, Wang Chen wasn’t worried, with the system, he would always have a reasonable explanation. even if something strange happened. To him, he was concerned that others might speculate wildly and discover his secret. Wang Chen moved his body a bit, feeling some changes. He couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was. Currently, he didn’t have a gun, so he couldn’t test the effect of absolute barrier firearm nullification. He stood up and searched the room for a fruit knife. Gripping it tightly in his right hand, he hesitated for a long time, pointing it at his left hand’s finger. He still couldn’t bring himself to do it. After all, it was his own hand, and it was hard to gauge the right amount of force. Gritting his teeth, he steeled himself and drew the knife across his finger. Instantly, a shallow cut appeared, and a drop of blood oozed out. Seeing the blood, Wang Chen let out a sigh of relief. He tossed the fruit knife aside and stared intently at the wound. The cut was healing at an imperceptible speed to the naked eye, and after about 10 minutes, it had completely closed up. However, there was still a scar visible on his finger. Wang Chen felt a bit disappointed. He wasn’t satisfied with this result. It took over 10 minutes for a small wound to heal. In actual combat, it wouldn’t be of much use. However, the speed of healing had indeed increased, so he was still relatively pleased with this entry. Then Wang Chen activated the x-ray vision, and a gray light appeared in his eyes, exuding an inexplicable eeriness. He looked at the wall in front of him. The wall slowly became transparent and blurry, quickly disappearing. On the other side was another guest room, unoccupied. Wow, this is incredible. Wang Chen’s eyes were filled with amazement as he curiously scanned the room. He suddenly turned and directed his gaze at the ceiling. As the gray. Light swirled in his eyes. The reinforced concrete structure of the floor instantly turned semi -transparent and soon vanished. The furniture. Arrangement in the upstairs room. The interwoven pipes beneath the floor. Even the cockroaches in the wall cracks were vividly clear. Wang Chen was. So excited that he almost jumped up. Rubbing his hands together. Let’s see if we can find Xiang Zhuo and the others. I wonder how far the eye of. Perspective can see. He shifted his gaze elsewhere. Soon, he found a room with the light on, but it wasn’t where Xiangzhuo was staying, it was. The room of Xianghuaqiang and Xiangtai. Wang Chen turned his head again, looking towards the side room. Just as his gaze brushed past the bathroom. Direction of the side room, a grey light suddenly fluctuated violently, clearly outlining the scene behind the frosted glass. In the rising steam, He Xiaoshin’s hazy figure appeared intermittently. Her pearly skin glimmered in the mist, her slender waist delicate to the touch, and her curves. Were so beautiful that one couldn’t look away. Heavens. Wang Chen leaned back abruptly, hurriedly covering his eyes, but his fingers betrayed. Him, leaving a gap. In that fleeting moment of peeking through his fingers, he caught sight of He Jiushin raising her hand to wipe away the water. Droplets, the light sliding down her swan-like neck to the hollow of her collarbone, then trailing down her skin. He was so shocked that blood. Rushed to his head. He quickly closed the eye of perspective, rubbing his forehead helplessly and saying, I didn’t mean to look at that, it was all. An accident. Do not gaze upon what is inappropriate. Do not gaze upon what is inappropriate. He murmured. no longer studying the eye of perspective he directly asked the system how far can this entry see at most ding the eye of perspective entry can see up to a range of one hundred meters obstructing your line of sight dot oh i see wang chen stroked his chin thoughtfully this entry is quite useful but it can only see things within a hundred meters if it could see a bit further that would be great it’s not that he wanted to see some little girl he just thought that being able to see a bit further would allow him to view underwater scenes that others couldn’t see when he goes out to see He mustn’t think too much. Then he opened his personal panel again, looking at the other two items he had drawn that he hadn’t seen before. Loyalty card. As long as this card is used on a person, regardless of their previous attitude towards you, their favorability towards you will reach maximum. Value. Never betray. Note, usage count 0 slash 1 dot. Not a bad item. If only the usage count wasn’t limited. Wang Chen looked at the remaining entry upgrade. Card, unsure if it meant what it literally said. It can upgrade entries. Entry upgrade card, can upgrade an entry, the effect of the entry, will undergo slight optimization. Note, usage counts 0 slash 1 dot, just as he imagined. Wang Chen looked at the more than 10 entries on the panel, feeling, a bit hesitant. The double cashback should, in theory, yield more money after upgrading, but more money didn’t mean much to him anymore. The machine soul, basketball star, big eater, spicy king, these entries were all optional. Using them on them would be a waste, after hesitating for. A moment, Wangchen still chose to upgrade the Extreme Physique entry. As he used it, the entry upgrade card transformed into a burst of colorful light. It transferred to the Extreme Physique entry, flickering for a moment before gradually disappearing. He quickly looked at the system panel. Host, Wangchen age, 20 height, 188 charm, 120, the limit for normal people is 100, physique, 150, the limit for normal people is 100. Stamina, 150, the limit for normal people is 100, entries, double cash back, entry effect, all reasonable expenses will be refunded double dot. Extreme physique, enhanced plus one, entry effect, from this moment on, you are the pinnacle of human physique dot. Suddenly, Wang Chen felt a surge of, heat coursing from his spine to his limbs, as if countless tiny electric currents were jumping between his muscle fibers. He instinctively clenched, his fists, the knuckles cracking sharply, his gaze sweeping over the glass cup on the bedside table, and with a gentle flick of his fingertip. the glass cup shattered instantly what the hell such a huge increase wang chen was somewhat surprised it was just a 30 point boost how could the change be so drastic previously when he surpassed human limits and reached a value of 120 there wasn’t such a significant enhancement could it be that the further he progressed the more his physical attributes were amplified wang chen was very satisfied with the enhancement effects on his body at least he hadn’t wasted this upgrade card this card was quite powerful the loyalty card seemed impressive as well he just didn’t know what that illusory giant hand that appeared during the lottery was such a phenomenon had never occurred in previous lotteries why did it happen this time was it because he had accumulated more points wang chin side ever since his rebirth this system had appeared in his life and it remained quite mysterious to him unable to figure it out he decided not to dwell on it any longer the entries that appeared in this lottery were all good and wang chin had drawn the entry he wanted the most resolving the threat posed by firearms If the advanced roulette could yield such impressive results, what would happen after the upgrade? Having tasted the sweetness of success, Wang Chen took out his phone and dialed Long Lily’s number. It took a while for the call to connect. On the other end, there was a rustling sound, as if the foam was being fished out from under a pillow. Long Lily answered with a heavy nasal tone, her voice still laced with sleepiness. Honey, what are you doing? I just fell asleep. Do you know what time it is? She rubbed her eyes and sat up, her silk pajamas slipping off her shoulders as she glanced at the time. It was 3.30 in the morning. Sorry to disturb your sleep, babe. Wang Chen’s voice carried a hint of urgency. Once I’m done with this busy period, I’ll take you back to Jincheng, just the two of us, to treat you well. Cut it out with that, long lily. Wrapped herself in a blanket, walking to the floor-to-ceiling window to gaze at the night view of the magic city. The thought of spending time alone. With Wang Chen brought a smile to her lips. What is it, honey? You need to transfer 700 billion to the company account right now. Wangchen chuckled softly, she truly was his good secretary, and he wanted nothing more than to return and pamper her right away. Right now? Long Lily was a bit surprised, you just transferred 100 billion, why do you need to send another 700 billion? That’s a lot of. Money, and it’s so late. Just don’t worry about it, babe, I have my reasons. Once you finish the transfer, get some sleep. Consider this a. Compensation for interrupting your beauty sleep. Tomorrow, go to the mall and buy some bags you like. Honey, I love you. Asterisk carrot carrot asterisk, after hanging up. Wang Chen took out his phone and transferred 1 million to Long Lily’s bank card. Initially, he intended to transfer it to the Ian Association, as developing power could always use more funds. But since he had just transferred 100 billion and would need to transfer more later, he felt at ease with Xiang Zhuo but was a bit wary of Xiang Hua Xiang, who was responsible for the Ian Association’s overseas affairs. He then decided to transfer it to the company account instead as he would soon need to invest in ByteDance and would require funds, so he transferred a bit more. Ding. The system detected that the host spent 1 million and a double cashback of 2 million was issued. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 100 system points. After waiting for a while, Wang Chen received a bank transfer notification. Clearly, Long Lily had already transferred the 100 billion into the company account. Ding! The system detected that the host spent 700 billion and a double cashback of 1,400 billion was issued. Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 7 million system points. With the points gained, Wang Xin didn’t have time to check the bank message. He quickly opened the roulette and thought to himself, system, let me draw, use all my points. Ding! 7 million points have been deducted, starting the draw now. Soon, the roulette appeared before him again. Ding! Thank you for your patronage. Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won 1 .38 billion Hua Xia coins. Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won 800. million huashia coins ding congratulations host you have obtained the entry chef god ding thank you for your patronage ding thank you for your patronage ding congratulations host you have obtained the entry master of combat ding congratulations host you have won 5.8 billion huashia coins ding thank you for your patronage ding congratulations host you have obtained the item scarecrow ding thank you for your patronage ding thank you for your patronage As the draw concluded he had obtained a total of 2 entries, 7.98 billion Hua Xia coins, and 1 item. Wang Chen’s face darkened and his mouth twisted in frustration. This was 8 million points. He had only drawn 2 entries and a scarecrow of unknown purpose. What a huge loss. Could it be that he had exhausted his luck from the last draw? Wang Chen felt quite regretful, wishing he had waited a few more days to draw. Ding. The system has detected that point consumption has reached 10 million, and the system will now begin upgrading. Ding. The system upgrade will take 3 days, during which the roulette draw function will be. Closed. Ding. System upgrading. 1%. 1.2%. Before Wangchen could check the effects of the entries, the system’s prompt sounded in his. Mind. Indeed, with the addition of these 700 points, the consumption had already exceeded 10 million, he just didn’t know what new functions. Would appear after the upgrade? Wangchen couldn’t help but feel a bit excited. He then looked at the effects of the entries. Chef God. Entry effect, you will receive the blessing of the chef god, and the dishes you make will have unimaginable flavors. Master of combat, entry. Effect, from this moment on, you are a true master of combat, whether it is close combat, grappling techniques, or the use of cold weapons, you will. Reach the pinnacle level of humanity. In an instant, a vast array of memories flooded into Wang Chen’s mind, various techniques replacing and combining. In his thoughts, he couldn’t help but gasp, rubbing his forehead. Wang Chen stood up, casually stretching his limbs, and his bones emitted a. Series of crisp sounds. He broke off a branch from a plant in the room. Running his fingers over the patterns on the branch, after removing the excess leaves, Wang Chun inexplicably assumed the starting position of the Wing Chun six and a half stick. In the next second, his movements were as swift as a phantom, the branch weaving into a net in the air, the gust of wind it created sending the documents on the desk flying everywhere. The techniques that originally required long-term training to master now felt as if he had practiced for decades, all without any hardship. If Xianglong and Xianghu knew about this, they would probably cry out in distress. He tried throwing punches at the air, the sound of the wind tearing. Through the air made his pupils constrict. Wangchen focused ahead, taking a deep breath as the principles of the eight extremes fist flashed. Through his mind. His feet stomped down hard, causing the entire study’s floor to tremble slightly with the sound of his stomping, his back like a. Todd bowstring suddenly exerting force, his right shoulder driving his right arm in an arc. Before his fist arrived, the air let out a dull explosive. Sound. This seemingly simple punch caused his blood and energy to surge like boiling water. As he turned, his steps took on an unusual rhythm, his hole being closing in on the windowsill like a tiger pouncing on its prey. His palms alternated in striking, the air erupting with a series of explosive sounds. At this moment, Wang Chen was completely immersed in the muscle instincts granted by the master of combat entry, every exertion was precise to the extreme, even his breathing perfectly synchronized with the rhythm of the techniques.It was as if he had been practicing ancient martial arts for decades. Wang Chen was immersed in the charm of martial arts, every punch and kick making him feel invigorated. With the existence of the solidification attribute, he wasn’t worried about staying up late and feeling sluggish the next morning. He kept throwing punches, the sound of the wind growing louder with each move. It wasn’t until a hint of white appeared on the horizon and the sun quietly peeked out that he finally stopped. Wang Chen stood still, his muscles slightly bulging and still steaming. Sweat dripped from the tips of his hair onto the floor. forming a patchy stain and his snug pajamas were already soaked clinging tightly to his body revealing distinct muscle lines he wiped his face with his hand and shook off the sweat the air was filled with the rising heat and a faint smell of sweat a unique scent produced by the body after intense exercise a wave of exhilaration surged in his heart no wonder those who practiced martial arts could stick with it for a lifetime it turned out that once you fully immersed yourself it felt so good it was almost like playing poker with his women moreover this feeling of Exhilaration wasn’t just fleeting, as long as he kept punching, that sensation would persist. He couldn’t help but want to challenge Xianglong and Xianghu to a match. He wanted to see who was stronger, them or him after acquiring that martial arts master attribute. He wasn’t even afraid of the threat of firearms now. His physique and endurance had surpassed human limits, reaching an astonishing 150 points, combined. With his extraordinary martial arts skills, he was practically a killing machine. Unfortunately, in modern warfare, an individual’s presence was. Too insignificant, in ancient times figures like Lu Bu and Dian Wei would have been dealt with in just a few moves. Wang Chen was actually looking forward to encountering some troublemakers in the future. It would be a perfect opportunity to test his skills. Wang Chen tore off his soaked pajamas and casually tossed them onto the leather sofa, walking barefoot towards the bathroom inside the room. He stopped in front of the mirror. His chest was heaving violently, his tan skin covered in fine beads of sweat, reflecting fragmented light in the morning glow. The man’s charm was off the charts. After admiring himself for a moment, he turned on the faucet behind him, warm water flowing into the bathtub, the rising steam quickly fogging the mirror. He grabbed some lavender-scented bath salt from the side and sprinkled it into the water. The light purple crystals dissolved instantly and soon he could smell the fragrance at the tip of his nose. Stepping into the bathtub, the warm water flowed over his waist. The tense muscles relaxed suddenly under the warmth of the water and he couldn’t help but let out a satisfied sound. He lazily leaned against the edge of the bathtub, soaking for quite a while. He opened the system panel again. He looked at the item he had just won in the lottery. The scarecrow. Scarecrow item effect. Legend has it that a mysterious wizard created this scarecrow, which can block a fatal blow for you. Once. Note, usage count 0-1. Wang Chen’s lips curled up as he sank to the bottom of the bathtub, enjoying the feeling of breathing underwater. At 3 in the afternoon. Macau Yacht Club Dock. Wang Chen stood on the deck, gazing at the scenery at the dock in the distance. The weather. In Macau today was quite nice. The sun was just right, a gentle breeze blowing, and the sea surface sparkled with shimmering waves. Along the dock, yachts were neatly lined up, shining with a metallic luster under the sunlight, their hull smooth and elegant, most of them appearing to be private yachts. The sea breeze carried the faint salty smell of the sea, mixed with the shouts of dock workers and the hum of boat engines. Wang Chen. Couldn’t help but take a deep breath of the sea breeze, feeling quite content. I was originally thinking of arranging a yacht bikini party for you, but after what happened last night, those guys all backed out. And they brought along my sister and he Zhaoshin, so it wouldn’t be fun to do. Anything else? Sigh. Xiangzhou walked up beside Wang Chen and stood next to him. Shrugging helplessly Wang Chen turned his head to glance at he. Zhaoshin and Xiang Junling, who were lying on deck chairs nearby in bikinis, and said, Isn’t that a bikini? Xiangzhou’s felt a bit awkward and couldn’t bear to look directly. One was his sister and the other was he Zhaoshin, who had an interest in Wang Chen. He didn’t dare to look too much. Xiangyu was busy grilling in a corner, using seafood freshly caught from the sea, which tasted quite good. The yacht could accommodate dozens of people, but aside from them, there were only the captain and a few crew members left, making it feel a bit empty. Come on, can this be called a party? Xiang Zhao’s pouted and muttered softly, with just a few of us, it’s far from the lively scene I originally envisioned. I was thinking of inviting a bunch of friends to celebrate wildly on the sea, but after last night’s incident, it all fell through. He looked frustrated and rubbed his forehead. Wang Chen chuckled lightly, crossing his arms over his chest and scanned the empty deck, saying, come on, there are benefits too. Having fewer people, it’s peaceful. And with beautiful women around and delicious barbecue, isn’t it quite pleasant? He nodded towards Xiang Yu, who was grilling. Wang Chen hadn’t noticed before, but Xiang Yu’s skills were indeed quite good, there was a reason for his plump figure, he didn’t skimp on himself. Xiang Yu just loves to fiddle with food. But speaking of which, his grilling skills are really impressive, the seafood. Just caught is almost on par with five-star hotel standards after he’s done with it. Xiang Zhao’s followed Wang Chen’s gaze and shook his head. Helplessly. As he spoke, he unconsciously touched his round belly. At that moment, the sea breeze gently blew, lifting the hair of He Zhaoshin and Xiang. Junling on the deck chairs. He Zhaoshin seemed to sense something, opened her eyes, looked over at Wang Chen, and a charming smile crept onto her. Lips as she waved her hand lightly. Wang Chen politely returned the smile. After last night’s interaction, He Zhaoshin was no longer so shy in front of Wang Chen and had returned to her usual self. Xiang Junling also noticed He Zhaoshin’s actions. She sat up, took off her sunglasses, and with. A meaningful smile, looked at He Xiaoshin and said, Xiaoshin, you have feelings for Wang Chen, don’t you? Sister, what are you talking about? He Xiaoshin’s face turned slightly red upon hearing this, her eyes evasive as she instinctively replied. Still pretending with me? Xiang Junling gently pinched He Xiaoshin’s cheek, your little thoughts are all written on your face. Let me. Tell you, Wang Chen already has several women around him, but with your family background and your qualities, if you really like him, go after him boldly. Her gaze was serious as she continued, as women, we can’t back down when we encounter. Someone we like. Look at Wang Chen, he’s talented and handsome, naturally surrounded by admirers. But you’re different, not only are you good looking, but you also come from a good family. Wang Chen’s family has no reason not to accept you. No matter how many women are around him, you’re still the main wife. Xiang Junling’s expression was somewhat complex. If she were 10 years younger, she would want to try with Wang Chen too. Unfortunately, I was born too late. I know. He Xiaoshin didn’t take the matter of Wang Chen having many women seriously at all. The atmosphere here was different from the mainland, her father had married four wives, and as long as one had the ability, it was fine. She didn’t care how many women Wang Chen had around him. He Xiaoshin bit her lip, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes as she said softly, but, I’m afraid he doesn’t like me, I’m not afraid of those people around him, I. What are you afraid of? How will you know if you don’t try? Xiang Junling patted He Xiaoshin’s hand, encouraging her, don’t tell me your other sisters aren’t interested in Wang Chen. Now that your father’s health is getting worse, if you can take. Down Wang Chen, who would dare to compete with your family for the inheritance. He Chaoxing lowered her head, feeling a bit dejected, and muttered, it’s so annoying. What’s the use of having so much money? We’re all family and no one cares about face anymore. Xiang Junling, aware of her family situation, patted He Chaoxing’s hand to encourage her, so you need to work harder to take down Wang Chen. That way, the other branches won’t say anything. If you keep being so hesitant, the opportunity will slip away. Then I’ll give it a try. He Chaoxing’s previously drooping eyelashes suddenly trembled as she spoke softly. She tightened her grip on the sunglasses in her hand, just about to ask Xiang Junling how to take the first step when she noticed white waves rising at the horizon where the seam at the sky. The yacht was slowly approaching the dock. Xiang Junling leaned close to her ear and whispered something, and He Chaoxing hesitantly nodded. Wang Chen looked up to see. A dense crowd on the shore. At the forefront were several men and women dressed in luxurious clothing, with a row of bodyguards standing behind them, clearly members of the He family. He Chaoxing put on her clothes and approached Wang Chen, blinking. Her beautiful big eyes, it’s my brother’s. Wang Chen assessed the imposing man at the front, and if he wasn’t mistaken, that was the well-known He Yujun from the internet. After the boat docked, Wang Chen and Xiangzua got off. As soon as they landed, He Yujun, with a beaming smile, jogged over to greet them, enthusiastically shaking Wang Chen’s hand and saying, Wang Chen, we’ve finally been waiting for you. I’ve wanted to meet you for a long time, and today I finally have the chance. It’s truly an honor. A middle-aged man in a butler’s outfit followed, respectfully calling out young master Wang as he took the suitcase Wang Chen was carrying. The He family members behind He Yujun also laughed, their eyes filled with curiosity. I’m He Yujun, and these are my siblings, He Yujun introduced one by one, He Chao Ying, He Yo Xiang, He Yu Bang. They all smiled and shook hands with Wang Chen, their eyes brimming with curiosity. This was the hottest person in Hua Gua right now. And he was a rich second generation with an even better family background, so they couldn’t help but show him respect. Moreover, he was invited by their father, so they dared not be negligent. Wang Chen looked at the attractive He Chao Ying, who was. Wearing a water blue silk dress, with a loosely tied satin ribbon at her waist, accentuating her slender figure. The most striking feature was her peach blossom eyes, slightly upturned at the corners, with thick eyelashes like butterfly wings. When she smiled, the corners of her eyes sparkled, as if hiding a pool of spring water. When she reached out to shake Wang Chen’s hand, a faint scent of rose perfume wafted from her, creating an unforgettable charm. However, Wang Chen had no interest. In her, her reputation wasn’t very good. After exchanging greetings, He Yujun turned to He Chaoxing, pouted, and pretended to be angry, saying, Chaoxing, you really aren’t being considerate. You went out to play without telling the family. Dads. Health hasn’t been great lately, and you’re still running around. He Chaoxing stuck out her tongue at her older brother upon hearing this. He Yujun smiled helplessly, his little sister had always been favored and was truly spoiled. He Yujun. Affectionately patted He Chaoxing’s head before turning to face Xiang Zhuo and the others. He raised his hand to casually drape it over Xiangzhu’s shoulder, speaking in a familiar tone, Xiangzhu, Xiangyu, it’s been a while since we’ve seen each other. Do you want to stay in Macau for a few more days before heading back? No, there are quite a few matters at home recently, so we’re heading back now. Xiangzhu shook his head. Alright, then I won’t keep you. Hiyu Jun released his hand, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes. After a few pleasantries, Xiangzhu, Xiangyu, and Xiangjun Ling bid farewell. Once back on the yacht, they set sail towards the return route. He Yujun watched as Xiang Zhuo and the other’s yacht slowly departed, then turned his gaze back to Wang Chen, his smile taking on a more serious tone. Welcome to my father’s birthday banquet. He’s waiting for you at home. Let’s get in the car. Sure. Wang Chen nodded and, at He Yajuan’s invitation, got into a stretched. Lincoln. He Chalian tried to follow and get in the car but was held back by He Yuxian, who took a seat in the back of another vehicle. He Yujun quickly followed and, as the car door closed, the driver immediately started the engine. The. Black sedan sped away like a swift cheetah. The interior of the car was spacious. He chouching pressed down on a small table, revealing chilled champagne and tall glasses inside. Brother Wang Chen, would you like something to drink? Seeing this, he, Yu Jun took out a glass and poured some wine. Wang Chen, however, was curiously gazing out the window. He saw colorful buildings lining the streets, their vibrant facades particularly striking under the sunlight. Occasionally, glimpses of traditional. Chinese temples with flying eaves and bracketed roofs could be seen between the buildings, their vermilion doors and golden glazed tiles exuding a sense of solemnity and mystery. Here, there were bustling buildings alongside remnants from the last century, somewhat reminiscent of Hong Kong’s style. He Yujun handed the champagne to Wang Chan and raised his own glass. He took a gentle sip, his gaze drifting through the car window towards the lively streets outside, and said, you must take the time to explore Macau when you come. Look at the road we’re on and the buildings around us, you haven’t seen anything like this in the mainland, right? Not at all. He Chaoxin’s eyes sparkled as she eagerly chimed in, Brother Wang Chen. There are so many delicious things in Macau. I highly recommend the Portuguese egg tarts, pork chop buns, and seafood rice. I believe you’ll love them. That sounds really good, Wang Chen replied with a smile as he accepted the champagne. He, Chaoxin, getting excited, didn’t notice his attitude and continued pointing at the egg tart shop signs passing by outside. The one ahead sells Portuguese egg tarts. Should we stop now? I can go buy a few to try. No need. Before Wang Chen could. Refuse, He Chaoxin had already asked the driver to stop the car and happily ran down. He Yujun waved his hand, feeling somewhat helpless towards his sister. Soon, He Chaoxin returned with a box. The car started up again and set off. Wang Chen looked at the egg tart box that He Chaoxin handed over. The moment the paper box was opened, the aroma of caramel mixed with the sweetness of butter wafted out, still steaming. He Chaoxin took out a napkin and placed it aside, looking at Wang Chen with anticipation. Brother Wang Chen, you have to try it, it’s so delicious. Wang Chen couldn’t decline and was quite curious about the taste. He picked up an egg tart, took a big bite, and his eyes lit up. The rich milky flavor and the crisp outer shell were delightful. He couldn’t help but take another bite, savoring it. He Chaoxin watched as Wang Chen took two bites in a row, her eyes crescent -shaped with joy, eagerly asking, So, how is it, brother Wang Chen? I didn’t lie to you, did I? She handed him a napkin, her eyes filled with laughter. Wang Chen wiped the corners of his mouth, the rich aftertaste of the egg tart lingering in his mouth. He had to admit that this egg tart was indeed unique, unlike the delicate yet bland desserts found in high-end restaurants. This Portuguese egg tart was bursting with flavor. It’s really good, he nodded slightly, his tone carrying a rare note of approval. He Chaoxin, receiving his acknowledgement, smiled so widely her eyes almost disappeared. Utterly delighted. He Yujun, seeing this, teased his sister with a smile, look at you, so proud. It’s just bringing Wang Chen to try an egg tart, and your tail is almost wagging to the sky. You won’t even run an errand for me on a regular day. He Chaoxin, however, was not pleased and gently tapped her brother’s arm. Brother, don’t change the subject, brother Wang Chen hasn’t finished eating yet. She pushed the egg tart box towards Wang Chen, her eyes full of expectation. There’s. One more, brother Wang Chen should eat it before it gets cold and loses its taste. He Yujun felt a bit heartbroken upon hearing this. Is this really the sister he has always cherished? They had just met Wang Chen and already her elbow was turning. Outward, it truly breaks one’s heart. Wang Chen looked at the last egg tart in the box, hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out to take it. Under Yi Chaoxin’s fiery gaze, he took a small bite, slowly chewing as the streets of Macau flew by. Outside the window, with many foreign tourists wandering about. A little over 10 minutes later, the car arrived at a hillside. This was number one, Xiwangyang Mountain, where Yi Chaoxin’s home was located. At the entrance of the villa, dozens of people stood in front of the ornate iron gate, looking this way, including some children. At the forefront was an elderly man in a wheelchair, thin and pale. The villa was quite understated, lacking the ostentatious luxury of nouveau riche, blending, European and Chinese styles, exuding an air of elegance and grandeur. After Wang Chen and the others got out of the car, Wang Chen quickly walked forward, a sincere smile on his face, saying, Grandpa, happy birthday. May you have blessings. As vast as the East Sea and a life as long as the South Mountain. Upon hearing this, the old man’s pale face broke into a look of comfort and he slightly raised his hand, signaling Wang Chen to come closer. Wang Chen hurriedly leaned in, and the old. Man gently patted his shoulder, his voice slightly weak yet filled with affection. Wang family boy, thank you for coming to celebrate my birthday. At this moment, he Chaoxin also stepped forward, sweetly calling out, Daddy, I’m back. Chaoxin is here too, good, good, it’s great that everyone is here. The old man nodded with a smile, looking quite spirited. The family members around looked at Wang Chen with friendly smiles. However, a few of them had less than friendly expressions. But Wang Chen didn’t mind, after all, grandpa he had just come out of the hospital, not as they wished. It was normal for some to feel disappointed. Looking inside the villa, no other guests were invited for the birthday. He was the only outsider. Moreover, his identity was sensitive, the family feud over inheritance was almost tearing them apart, and with the biggest variable appearing, they had to worry. But crowds surrounded the old man as they walked into the villa. The old man held Wang Chen’s hand, first introducing a few ladies, then the children around. Wang Chen maintained a smile throughout, but his gaze lingered a moment longer on one girl. Mainly because this girl was exceptionally beautiful, among the girls he knew, few, could surpass her looks. Was this the renowned Hichalian, said to be the most beautiful heiress in the world? Indeed, it was well -deserved praise. Name, Hichalian age, 27 height, 170 cm charm, 97 fizzy, 85 favorability, 60 skills. Financial management, advanced golf, advanced skiing, advanced ballet, intermediate, she was also a strong woman. With her advanced financial management skills, it was clear she was not just a pretty face, which surprised Wangchen a bit. Girls from such families were usually trained in dance or the arts. The family wouldn’t demand too much from them, just that they be obedient. Hee Chao Lian smiled back at the exceptionally handsome man. Today, Wang Chen wore a light blue suit paired with a matching silk tie, and on his wrist was a Patek Philippe watch. Unlike his usual casual attire, dressed in formal wear, combined with Wang Chen’s devilishly handsome looks, he was enough to attract the attention of all the women. Hee Chao Lian held a white LV handbag, obediently following beside Grandpa Hee Hongshun, her every gesture exuding the elegance of a refined lady. Along the way, He Cho-ing cast flirtatious glances at Wang Chen, but he pretended not to see, engrossed in conversation. With his father. She couldn’t help but feel a bit annoyed. If she had known, she would have gone to Hong Kong with He Cho-shin to find Wang Chen. It was all her father’s fault for stopping her. Otherwise, with her beauty, she could definitely win. Wang Chen over. She didn’t give up. Trying to talk to Wang Chen to close the distance, she had long secretly learned about Wang Chen’s family background. If she could marry Wang Chen, she wouldn’t care about the family’s assets. Perhaps by then, the Other branches of the family would be eagerly handing over their inheritance to her. At that time, she would even have to consider whether to. After returning to the villa room, old master He Hongshin seemed to sense her thoughts. He reached out. And pulled He Chaolian and He Chaoxin’s hands to sit beside him. Then he pulled Wang Chen to sit next to him. Chaoxin has been spoiled by me since she was little, her temper is quite wild. His murky eyes turned to Wang Chen, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth. Just yesterday, she secretly ran out to meet you. I couldn’t stop her, truly, a girl can’t be kept at home. Dad. He Chaoxing pouted, shaking his arm, her cheeks flushed. He haunched and then held He Chao Lian’s wrist, Lian. Girl is different, she has been sensible since she was young and she graduated from the Royal Academy in England. Wang Chen noticed He Chao Lian’s fingertips tremble lightly in his palm, her nails neatly trimmed and painted with nearly transparent nail polish. The old man suddenly released his hand, took a sip of the poor tea handed to him by a servant and said, you young people always say I’m biased. He suddenly slammed the teacup down on the small table, making a crisp sound, what am I? biased about it’s just that those who can do more work should do more and those who are virtuous should manage the family look at you all it’s good enough that you let me worry less when he said the last sentence he cast a meaningful glance at a few middle-aged men in suits sitting in the distance who were pretending to admire the oil paintings on the wall but their ears were perked up the old man then started talking about a few ladies wang chen was unwilling to get involved in their family matters remaining silent only responding a few times when it came to him The wives of the second and third branches, Liang Wanqi and Chen Guanjin, both wore smiles. They were very attentive to Wang Chen, praising their daughters. While their eyes were full of admiration for their son-in-law, it almost overwhelmed him. He Chaoxin and He Chaolian were their daughters. If Wang Chen took a liking to them, there was no doubt the old man would share the family assets with them. Moreover, Wang Chen was tall and handsome, and the daughters clearly looked satisfied with him. As mothers, they were even more pleased. They believed there was no better son-in-law than Wang Chen in the world and if they could bring him home. they would be overjoyed. The second lady looked helpless. After all, her daughters were grown up, and Wang Chen wasn’t a suitable match for them. Only the first lady had passed away early, and the eldest brother and sister had also died, leaving. Only two women who sat quietly to the side, playing with the children. Soon, it was mealtime. He Hongchen apologetically said to Wang Chen, I’m sorry, I just recovered from a serious illness, and for my birthday, everything is kept simple. You can just have a home-cooked meal with this old man. Grandpa He, you flatter me. It is an honor for the younger generation to dine with you. A home-cooked meal is more than enough. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen immediately put down his teacup, leaned slightly forward, his expression sincere and gentle. At a large dining table, more than 20 people sat down in turn while dozens of servants stood in two rows, ready to serve. Wang Chen was pulled to sit beside old master He Hong Chen. Soon, the household servants began bringing out dish after dish. Portuguese chicken. Crispy roast pork. Ginger scallion crab. A treasure duck. Portuguese seafood rice. Stir-fried shrimp with bitter melon. Cordyceps flour stewed old hen. Malt pudding dessert. Almond soup. In no time, over a hundred dishes were served. Main courses, staples, soups, desserts everything was there, all featuring Macanese specialties. Wang Chen’s appetite was greatly stimulated. Old master. He haunched apologetically said, I didn’t know what you like to eat. I thought you might not have been to Macau, so I had the chefs prepare some specialty dishes. I hope you will like them. Wang Chen looked at the array of dishes spinning on the turntable, a genuine smile appearing in his eyes, so many dishes are already great, you don’t know how strict my family was when I was young, there weren’t any particularities about meals, hearing this, old master he signaled everyone to start eating, then picked up a piece of crispy roast pork for Wang Chen, after carefully accepting it, Wang Chen ate slowly, at that moment, the eldest son, He Yulong, stood up first, he raised his hand to signal the servant to bring over a redwood brocade, box, and with a soft click of the gilded lock, the box was opened. Inside lay a large, round pearl, glistening on a velvet base. The pearl was a full 15 centimeters in diameter, showcasing its expensive nature. Dad, this pearl was sourced from. The deep sea in Australia. I spent a lot of money to get it, he said with a smile, placing the pearl in front of Hee Hongshun. You often say that people nurture Jade, and Jade nurtures people, this pearl is even more nurturing. Hee Hongshun touched. The 15 centimeter pearl, a hint of a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, not bad, thoughtful of you. You finally remember that I like these, he hunction tapped the surface of the pearl twice with his fingertip, a smile emerging in. His murky eyes. The eldest son, he yulong, straightened his back instantly, his ears turning red, and quickly raised his hand to pour half a cup of puer tea for the old master, as long as dad likes it, I’m still having someone keep an eye out. In Australia for more good stuff. Before he could finish, the old master suddenly smiled even more deeply, as long as the thought is there, I probably won’t need it in the future. As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere became a bit. Awkward. No one could tell if the old master was happy or what. It seemed inappropriate to say such unlucky things on a joyful day. At this moment, the eldest daughter of the main house, He Xiaoxing, gently took out a sandalwood box and stood up. Dad, this is a black diamond roughstone I got from a Brazilian mine owner, 128 carats, specially polished to have a flat surface. She gestured for a nearby servant to display it, the gem standing under the lamp, light and shadow dancing across. It, refracting a captivating brilliance. At this time, the eldest son of the third house, Hiyouchi, approached holding a scroll and as he unfurled the rice paper, Zheng Banxiao’s ink bamboo glimmered with a green sheen under the light, Dad, this is an authentic piece I got from Pali Auction, look at this inscription. Others began to present their prepared gifts and a smile remained on Hihounxin’s face as he accepted them one by one. There were jewels, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, and longevity noodles and cakes prepared by the ladies. At this moment, Hihounxin happily handed a pair of socks to Hihounxin, Daddy, these are socks I knitted for you, I hope you like them. I like them, I like everything my Xiaoshin gives. Me. He haunched and extended his thin hand, smiling as he accepted the red socks. Just as he Xiaoshin placed the red socks into the old master’s palm, the second concubine watched and snickered, deliberately knocking her jade bracelet against the table, producing a crisp sound. She stirred the almond paste in her bowl with a silver spoon, a smirk playing at the corners of her mouth. Xiaoshin’s skillful hands should learn to make Portuguese egg tarts, she could definitely earn a Michelin star. Before her words fell, the eldest son of the second house, He Yulong, swirled his wine glass and replied, Isn’t that right? If those hand-knitted socks had any loose threads, that would be a sight to see. He looked on with a smirk, his eyes filled. With disdain. Amidst the low laughter around the table, the fourth house’s lady, Liang Wanchi, reached out to fix her daughter’s crooked headband, gently patting her hand. Silly child, why send this instead of something better? Before she could. Finish, the old master suddenly held the red socks up to the light, examining them closely, when I was seven, my family fell on hard times, and in winter, I didn’t even have a decent pair of socks. He turned to look at He Xiaoshin, whose eyes were red, later, when I made my first fortune, the first thing I bought was a pair of wool socks, warm and cozy, more precious than any jewel. The girl is thoughtful. As long as daddy likes it, He Xiaoshin immediately broke into a smile, she felt a bit uncomfortable with her brother’s mockery, but after so many years, she had gotten used to it. That’s how it is when there are many people in the family. The more her father favored her, the less inheritance the others would receive, so. They naturally wouldn’t miss the chance to strike at her. She just didn’t expect that the socks she knitted by hand would be so liked by her father. He you long felt a surge of resentment in his heart. His fists clenched unconsciously, glaring at the. Opposite side. The old man is here now, and he is taken to sweet-talking, defending he zhowshing for a pair of socks. Even if they were hand-knitted, how much could a pair of socks be worth? They were worth less than the pearls he had given, not. even comparable to the smallest fraction of those pearls. He wouldn’t even want them if they were given for free. The old man cherished them as if he had received a treasure. Fourth aunt revealed a smile at the corner of her mouth. This outcome had long been within her expectations. The old master liked this girl jushing, so naturally, anything he gave would not compare to something made by hand. A pair of hand-knitted socks carries more sincerity. Seeing that his sister had passed the test, Hee-yoo Jun took out a folder. Dad, this is the first business deal I’ve ever made in my life and I want to give you this contract. Good, good, good, very thoughtful. He Hongshin reached out to take it, flipping through it carefully, nodding. From time to time. Clearly, he was very satisfied with this gift. Just as he Yujun proudly sat back down, Wangchen slowly stood up and said, Grandpa, I specially prepared a gift before coming, and I hope you won’t dislike it. He Hongshin waved. His hand, displeased, What are you bringing gifts for, you child? That’s too formal. I’m just very happy that you could come. Wangchen smiled and nodded. How could one attend a birthday banquet without bringing a gift? That would be too. inappropriate. He then took out a guccin from his suitcase. He carefully opened the case, revealing an ancient and elegant guccin before everyone. This guccin was about a meter long, with its surface inlaid with gold and silver patterns, and its body made of copper and wood, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship. It was clearly a masterpiece. As soon as Wangshin took it out, he hungshin’s eyes lit up. He leaned forward, his murky eyes suddenly sparkling with sharpness, his bony fingers caressing the body of the guccin. The gold and silver pattern shimmered under the crystal chandelier. He Hongshan’s eyes were filled with admiration. Is this a gold and silver flat-patterned guqin? He Hongshan looked up at Wang Chen and asked. Indeed, Wang. Chen lightly tapped the body of the guqin and the copper and wood resonance box emitted a humming sound, like the distant sound of pine trees in the mountains. He plucked the strings, producing clear and distant harmonics that startled the white. Doves fluttering outside the eaves. According to ancient records, during the Tang Kaiyuan period, craftsmen in Yangzhou used a hundred tails of gold and thirty gene of silver, taking five years to create twelve gold and silver flat-patterned gyukens. Three of them were sent to Japan with the Tang envoys, while the remaining nine were kept in the royal collection. He Hongchen asked curiously, so which one is this? This one is one of the three that ended up in Japan, Wangchen smiled. Slightly and continued, I acquired this one at the auction last time, and according to the appraisers from Christie’s, it is indeed a genuine article. He Hongshin’s throat rolled violently, his age-spotted hand hovering over the Guchin for a long time. Without touching it, as if what he was about to touch was not just a Guchin, but a living thing carrying a thousand years of history. This is the legendary treasure. He sighed, my collection room is just missing this exquisite Tang Dynasty Guchin. Truly rare. I once saw a gold and silver flat pattern Guchin in Tokyo, and even offered a high price but it wasn’t sold to me. I never expected that today. Before he could finish, he suddenly coughed violently, causing his body to tremble. Slightly. Wang Chen’s extravagant gesture surprised fourth aunt. She knew he had opened a company in the Magic City and that he had made quite a stir in the entertainment industry recently. But this antique was worth a fortune, even with his family. Background, giving such an expensive gift to the old man for his birthday would still be a bit painful. After all, he hasn’t taken over the family business yet. In the midst of starting his own venture, he can’t possibly have too much money. He Yu Long looked at Wang Chen with a new perspective, he couldn’t bear to let him give such an expensive item. This was something worth several hundred million. Yet, Wang Chen just sent it out. What a prodigal son. Young Master Wang’s generosity is indeed. Astonishing. He Chao Lian suddenly chuckled, her voice carrying a professional elegance. The quarters of her eyes lifted slightly and there was a hint of cunning in her gaze as she deliberately said in a sweet tone, I wonder if there are any other. Treasures, could you send me one too? We’re of similar age, Miss He, just call me Wang Chen. Wang Chen glanced at her and smiled, there are several more at home, why don’t you come back to Magic City with me? You can pick whatever you like. Then it’s settled, you can’t go back on your word. Upon hearing this, He Chao Lian’s eyes lit up, and the smile on her lips deepened. Wang Chen nodded with a smile. This woman has an interesting way of speaking. Wang Chen understood her meaning well. Such a beautiful woman, taking the initiative to approach him. If it were anywhere else, he would have welcomed her with open arms. But this was the daughter of He Hongchen, the old man, and they were still at his birthday banquet. He couldn’t say much. San Tai chuckled lightly, quite pleased with her daughter’s initiative. Chao Lian just loves to joke around, she thinks of something and goes for it. When you go to Magic City, don’t spoil her. Wang Chan took a sip of tea. His gaze casually. Swept over He Chao Lian’s flushed earlobes, and a low chuckle escaped his lips, and said, your words flatter me, whatever the family’s daughter wants, how could I not indulge her? He Chao Xin, watching the conversation between Wang Chan and her sister He Chao Lian, stamped her foot anxiously. Clearly, she was the one who had approached Wang Chan first. How could He Chao Lian be like this, flirting with Wang Chan right after meeting him? It’s so infuriating. She pouted, clenching her. Fists in anger. but there was nothing she could do. Wang Chen had no obligation to talk to her, it was his freedom to chat with whomever he pleased. Si Tai shook her head at the scene. This daughter of hers, just be proud. A man like Wang Chen, rare, in the second generation rich circle, with such a good family background, is practically impossible to find. Yet, she still holds herself aloof. If He Chaoxin had even a fraction of He Chaolien’s romantic experience, this mother wouldn’t be worried. At all. He Hongchen’s face was full of smiles. He was very pleased with He Chaolien’s initiative. Knowing that Xiang’s woman Wang Chen had a good relationship, he had invited him from afar to attend his birthday banquet, hoping to see if his two daughters could develop something with Wang Chen. After narrowly escaping death, he was acutely aware that his body couldn’t hold out much longer. Once he was gone, he had no worries about anything else. The only concern was whether the He families vast estate would encounter any issues. Over the years, he had offended quite a few people in the pursuit of developing the company. Most of them had been dealt with, bankruptcies here and there, and some sinking into the sea. The remaining ones. were either backed by official connections, making them hard to deal with, or were still competitors. He truly feared that after his death, these people would band together against the He family. What could his sons do? He knew their capabilities well. He Hongshan couldn’t trust them with the company. After learning that the young master of the Wang family, Wang Chen, had appeared on Dying Sound, he began to ponder. As long as his daughters formed a relationship with Wang Chen, a marriage between the He and Wang families would ensure that no one in Hua Gua could provoke the He family in the future. The Wang family would be the strongest backing. Go find a box. He Hongshin spoke to the butler, his aged voice carrying an undeniable authority. Soon, the butler brought a box. He Hongshin carefully placed the golden and silver guqin inside. Under the old man’s instructions, the butler carefully took it to the study and placed it properly. The time had come to 6 in the evening. With the end of the dinner, most of He Hongshin’s children had left, leaving only the ladies and He Yujun, He Chaoxin, and He Chaolian in the villa. He Hongshin looked at Wang Chen and said, You young people have common topics, so let Yujun, Chaoxin. and Chalian accompany you to have some fun. Since you’re in Macau, it would be a pity to miss the casino. He Chaoxing quickly said, that’s great. Brother Wang Chen, I’ll take you to have some fun. I really haven’t been to a casino before. Wang Chen nodded and smiled. Most Chinese people are quite familiar with the new Peking Casino in Macau. Many websites have advertisements for it. However, most people might go through their entire lives without ever coming here in person and experiencing the casino themselves. Wang Chen was certainly among them. In his past life, he was a poor loser, rarely even leaving his province, let alone sailing to Macau. This was also his first time here in this life. He was very much looking forward. To seeing the new Peking casino, wanting to find out if this place, which frequently appeared on websites, was truly filled with gamblers and if the people coming and going were all tall models over 1.8 meters. Then it’s just right to take brother. Wang Chen to have some fun. Let me tell you, I’m really good at baccarat. If you don’t know how to play, I’ll teach you. He Chalian said with a grin, playfully tossing her hair. Wang Chen couldn’t help but show an interested expression, smiling. As he said, I only know how to play simple games like Do Di Zhu and Guangdong. I’ve only seen Baccarat in movies, so I’ll have to trouble you later. Trouble what? Before He Chao Lian could finish her sentence, He Chao Xin quickly interjected. Brother Wang Chen, I can play Baccarat too, as well as Texas Hold’em and Sick Bo. I know how to play all of them. He Chao Lian hardly knows how to play, she’s lying to you. Who lied to brother Wang Chen? I really can play Baccarat. What nonsense. Are you talking about? Hichalian bit her silver teeth, glaring at Hichalian with some dissatisfaction. Hichalian blared back at her, refusing to back down. How many times have you been to a casino since you were little? You can count them on. Your fingers. Haven’t you been less than me? At least I’ve shown some interest and gone a few times. Have you ever been? I remember you never went. Hichalian didn’t let her younger sister off easily. Don’t mislead brother Wang Chen. If he loses, it’ll be your fault. He hongshin coughed twice, his cane striking heavily on the marble floor. Stop arguing. This is not ladylike at all. Sit properly. He Hongshin glared at them, but his eyes were full of amusement. Years ago, when he. Introduced suitable young men from the business world to his eldest daughter, He Chaolian, his standards were sky high. So many excellent men didn’t meet his approval. Now, after just a few hours of contact with Wang Chen, he was clearly interested. In him. Both of He Hongshin’s children were now interested in Wang Chen, and he would agree to whichever one Wang Chen liked. He Chaoxin and He Chaolian dared not disobey their father’s words and obediently sat down. He Chaoxing, feeling upset. Coldly huffed at He Chaolian, crossing her arms in anger. He Chaolian just smiled and turned to look at Wang Chen. He Yujun looked at them helplessly, it was one thing for the younger sister to act up, but why was He Chaolian also causing a scene? He Yujun understood their father’s intentions and changed the subject. Wang Chen, don’t listen to them, they aren’t as skilled in these matters as I am. In a bit, I’ll show you what a real gambling king is. He Yujun, He Chaolian and He Chaoxing, spoke in unison, glaring at him in anger. Especially He Chaoxing, who was very upset. Was this really his brother? Not only did he not help her, but he also undermined her. Wang Chen almost couldn’t hold back his laughter, but he didn’t want to. Show it in front of the others.He Hong Chen tapped his cane lightly, a glint of cunning flashing in his murky eyes as he scanned the faces of his three children. Then he turned to Wang Chen and said, in a bit, when you’re in the venue, just play. Freely. If you win, it’s yours, if you lose, it’s all on grandpa he. That won’t do, I can’t accept that. Wang Chen quickly waved his hands in refusal. Oh, don’t refuse this. You gave me such an expensive gift for my birthday, and I haven’t even thanked you yet, Hee Hongshan insisted, not allowing for any objections. But remember, however you play, just don’t take it seriously. Why not? Wang Chen was taken aback, puzzled. Hee Hongshan paused deliberately, his aged voice suddenly turning. Serious, you’re still young, and I worry you might not be able to resist temptation. I’ve always taught you Jun and Shaolin not to sit at the card table themselves, never gamble to win. That’s right, brother Wang Chen, dad has always said that. Since we were little, so we siblings don’t really play these games, he chow she nodded her fair little head repeatedly, he you june felt a bit awkward, scratching his head, just now, they were saying he was the king of gamblers, he hongshin’s murky, eyes pierced through the glow of the crystal chandelier in the living room, as if he could see decades of life unfolding before him, do you know how I earned the title of king of gamblers, wangshin asked curiously, how did you get it, he hongshin, looked at wangshin seriously and slowly said, it’s because I never sit at the gambling table that I earned it. 9 out of 10 lose, not gambling is winning. In this line of work, as long as you don’t gamble, you’re inherently in an unbeatable position. He haunch and forbade his children from participating in gambling, and even those around him would be advised against it because he had seen too many people lose everything due to gambling. Gambling is a high-risk behavior that can easily lead to addiction, even resulting in families being torn apart. He hoped his children’s lives could be pursued through legitimate means and their own efforts for success, rather than relying on shortcuts and gambling on the impossible one in a million. Wang Chen immediately understood the old man’s intention. He was worried he might get addicted. He felt a sudden respect for He Hongchen, regardless of what purpose he had in inviting him to his birthday banquet. It seemed at least he had no ill intentions towards him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have reminded Wang Chen about such matters and allowed him to play freely without concern for winning or losing. It’s important to know that the reason gambling can create an addiction lies in the psychological gap created by winning and losing. When you lose, you want to win back your losses, if you win, you won’t easily let go, wanting to win even more. But Ehongshin told Wangshin not to care about winning or losing, if he won, it was. His, if he lost, it was all on him. This, to some extent, avoided Wangshin being influenced by the outcomes, thus preventing addiction. Gambling is like walking a tightrope blindfolded on a cliff, even if you don’t fall 10 times out of 10, 1. Slip can lead to disaster. How many people at the gambling table, blinded by greed, didn’t start with just playing a couple of hands? But once you’re caught in it, it’s like stepping into a quagmire, the more you struggle, the deeper you sink. Winning makes you want to win again, losing makes you want to turn the tables, and in the end, you often find yourself in a situation where home feels like no home, and you feel like no person. And just like that, your life is over. He Hongshin saw. That Wangshin understood his meaning and added fuel to the fire, wanting him to fully grasp the underlying logic of how casinos operate. He also revealed to Wangshin the real secret to winning at the casino. This is a secret many people know. ordinary people think that winning at the casino is due to cheating behind the scenes but the reality is quite different the casino might pull some tricks during a high stakes bet but when playing normally the casino doesn’t even bother to pay attention and the reason lies in the rules of various games the rules are designed from the start to favor the casino dealer whether you win or lose the casino doesn’t care the casino only cares about whether today’s turnover has increased as long as the daily turnover is normal the casino will naturally make a profit this is because the rules favor the house Some people think their cheating skills are extraordinary and that they can make a fortune in the casino. They are indeed thinking. Too simply. In modern society, casinos have plenty of high-definition cameras everywhere. Are you sure you can cheat and think it’s foolproof, but can you hide from high-definition cameras that capture at 10 or 100 times the speed? He honked his voice and he seemed to be drained of all his strength, hunching over against the sofa, letting out a weary sigh. In his life, he had experienced times of downfall, but for the most part, he lived in a world of luxury and indulgence. Standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid, the envy of countless people. Because of running a casino, he earned thousands, even tens of billions, comparable to a money printing factory. This wealth is unimaginable for ordinary people. But because of the casino, he has seen too many families torn apart, lives ruined. He doesn’t know if he bears any responsibility, but what he can do is to keep the women around him from gambling. Help me to rest, will you? You probably find me annoying. With my rambling, sigh. I’m really getting old. You young people just go have fun. He Hongshin waved his hand at the butler, his dry, wrinkled hand trembling slightly. Wang Chin immediately stepped forward, supporting He Hongshin’s trembling. Arm, his tone sincere yet somewhat urgent, Grandpa, I remember every word you say, how could I find it annoying? You’re doing this for my sake, willing to speak from the heart. He bent slightly, his gaze fixed on the old man’s drooping eyes. My father often says that listening to elders is better than studying for ten years, what you say is more precious than anything, and I’ve noted it all down. He Chao Xien opened her mouth to say something but was elbowed by He Chao Lien. There. Father was getting old, especially after just coming out of the hospital recently, becoming a bit sentimental. He chowly and felt a pang of sadness. What their father said last night kept resurfacing in her mind. Her fingers instinctively clenched. There was a hint of hesitation in her eyes. She sighed inwardly. She stepped forward in her high heels, affectionately linking her arm with her father’s other arm, her voice soft as she said, Daddy, what you said, whenever we got into trouble. As kids, weren’t you always there to protect me and chow xin? Now that you’re old, you’ve become distant from us? She shot a glance at the butler, why aren’t you helping the old master to rest? He’s tired today too. He honkshan’s murky eyes. Glistened slightly, trembling as he patted Wang Chen’s hand then held his daughter’s fingers finally rising slowly with everyone’s support. He was led by the butler to the second floor to rest. He Yujun drove a Rolls Royce ghost from the villa. Parking lot. Wang Chen, He Chao Aixian and He Chao Lian got into the car one after another. All were in the back seat with Wang Chen sitting between the two women. He Yujun immediately pressed the accelerator. V room. The car instantly burst. Fourth with powerful momentum, driving out of the vela. More than ten cars followed closely behind. These were bodyguards arranged to protect Wang Chen and Hiyujun. Hihanshan dared not let anything happen to Wang Chen on his turf. The night in. Macau. The colorful lights unfolded like a painting before everyone’s eyes. The car sped along the street, the scenery outside flashing by like a slideshow. The streetlights emitted a soft glow, intertwining with the dazzling lights from the shop. Windows on either side, making the entire street exceptionally bright. Wang Chen’s gaze was drawn to an ancient Portuguese-style building by the roadside, the dim yellow light spilling onto the building’s exterior, outlining its unique silhouette. The mottled marks on the wall telling the story of the city’s rich heritage. And not far away, modern skyscrapers rise up, their glass facades reflecting the colorful neon lights, showcasing the city’s prosperity and fashion. As the car continues. Forward, Wang Chen’s gaze is suddenly drawn to a massive building that pierces the clouds. He Ujun notices Wang Chen’s focus and begins to introduce it. This is a famous tourist tower in Macau, also its landmark building. Standing at 338 meters, the tower emits a unique glow in the night. The tower is surrounded by lights that transition from bright to soft, blending seamlessly with the surrounding night while still standing out. The tip of the tower juts into the night. Sky, as if aiming to stand alongside the stars. As the car approaches, Wang Chen feels its awe even more intensely. The observation deck on the tower, with its bright windows, resembles twinkling stars, and with Wang Chen’s eyesight, he can see. Tourists behind each window enjoying the view. The Macau Tower is not just a sightseeing tower, it symbolizes the city, witnessing Macau’s prosperity and changes. At 338 meters high, standing at the top, one can overlook every inch of Macau. Wangchen can’t help but think that if he could stand up there, he would surely be able to take in the entire scenery of Macau. Below him, the skyscrapers, streets, and bustling traffic of Macau seem small, while the distant coastline. appears hazy in the night, along with the bridge connecting to the Macau Peninsula, resembling shimmering ribbons winding through the darkness. Soon, the car arrives in front of two resplendent buildings. This is the New Peking and Old Peking. The two buildings are separated by a street, with a sky bridge and even an internal passageway. This allows gamblers to conveniently move between the two structures. After a few people get out of the car, Wangchen looks up at the famous New Peking Casino. Its unique lotus shape, illuminated by lights, resembles a golden flower core shining brilliantly in the night, with petals unfolding as if to break through the night sky and bloom with endless light. After a while, it continues to change colors, creating a particularly stunning sight. The base of this lotus building is a rounded universal sphere, like a dazzling golden egg, exuding a mysterious aura. The surrounding streets are bustling with traffic, pedestrians coming and going, most of them hurried and excited as they head towards the casino. Quite impressive. Wangchen can’t help but exclaim as he gazes at the building before him. Even though Wangchen is used to grand scenes, seeing the real new Peking casino still leaves him. In awe. A massive glowing structure hundreds of meters tall stands before him, making the surrounding building seem small. The design inspiration for this building comes from the lotus. He Chao Ling raises her delicate neck, looking at the lotus. Building. My father said that its design is inspired by the budding lotus, symbolizing the vigorous development of new Peking, and its height is among the top in Macau, he Ujun adds. My mommy has a casino too, it’s the famous Shang Peking. Resort, He Chaoxing boasts, looking at Wang Chen. Wang Chen is somewhat surprised. He didn’t expect that the gentle and kind fourth concubine also invests in and manages a casino. Truly, one cannot judge by appearances. This resort is a comprehensive, complex that integrates gambling, hotels, dining, and entertainment, and it is quite famous in Macau. The He family’s status in Macau is indeed not to be underestimated. In addition to Old Peking, New Peking, and Shang Peking, there are also the 16. Piers Casino, the Huayli Entertainment Center, the MGM Macau, and the City of Dreams Casino. Among them, the MGM is managed by the eldest sister He Chaocheong, who was born earlier and is known as the Gambling Queen, achieving remarkable success in the business field and earning the trust of He Hongshan. The City of Dreams Casino is managed by the eldest brother He Yulong, who holds the position of chairman, they are colossal beasts that devour gold, unimaginable to ordinary people. The money earned each day is an astronomical figure. At this moment, the new Poojin. Outside, many elegantly dressed individuals are walking in. Everywhere you look, beautiful women with long legs and high heels are heading towards the casino. Most of these people are engaged in less than reputable professions or are public relations girls but this is also a characteristic of most casinos. It is unavoidable, many come specifically for these beauties. After earning unprecedented high salaries, many of these women easily become trapped, unable to extricate themselves. In the square, many disheartened individuals are slumped on chairs or the ground, with their luggage from traveling beside them. Happy, cursing, breaking down. Thousands of faces, countless people here gamble away their futures. They break down and curse, unable to accept this reality, becoming what outsiders see as insane. Only by truly coming to Macau, by being here in person, can one understand what true debauchery and indulgence in wealth and pleasure is. A small city, yet it exudes luxury at every turn, every night, Macau, one of the world’s for major gambling cities, shines brilliantly. Old Master He Hong spent nearly 10 billion to create this Lotus. Building, the first 7-star hotel in Macau. It was back in 2007. The lower floors are the entertainment area, while above are the hotel and restaurants. This is just the new Poojin, Macau also has a pure gold wealth tree worth billions flourishing. As if it has drained the money from those who come to gamble. There’s also the opulent Wind Palace, which is equally extravagant inside. The luxury cars and the parking lot are clustered together. Rolls Royces, Ferraris, McLarens, Bugattis, too. Many to count. In the lobby of the Galaxy Hotel, the super diamond beneath the fountain leaves everyone who sees it in awe. Inside the Venetian casino, there’s the world-famous artificial sky that never sets. Inside, no one can feel the passage. Of time. The high concentration of oxygen feels like a stimulant added to the air, making people exhilarated and unable to stop. At this moment, a street performer is playing guitar not far away, the cheerful melody adding a relaxed atmosphere to the bustling street. A few people are walking towards the building, followed by dozens of bodyguards. A shabby street performer sees Wang Chan and his group, who are either rich or noble, walking towards them. The bodyguards block him from getting closer. He excitedly shouts, and he Ujun frowns, waving his hand. The bodyguards directly pull out a few bills and stuff them into his hand. The street performer happily takes the money and walks away. In Macau, there are many people like him. Yu Jun observes as Wang Chen watches the street performer leave, sighing as he explains, many people enter the casino with the hope of getting rich overnight, at first, they might taste a bit of sweetness, but once they are deeply trapped, it becomes, hard to extricate themselves, a hint of regret shows in his eyes as he continues, they gamble away not only their savings but may also incur massive debts, some even mortgage their houses and cars, once everything is lost, they dare not, go home, and they have no home to return to, facing their families is too shameful, so they can only choose to wander the streets, dare not go home? Wang Chen asked in confusion, even if they lose money, it shouldn’t come to not daring to go home. It’s better than performing here, right? It’s not that simple. In their hearts, they place too much weight on their family’s expectations, losing everything makes them feel they have completely let their families down. He Yujun shook his head. With a bitter smile, this is still the better scenario, some people, after losing, are still unwilling to accept it and want to turn the tables at the gambling table. Do you believe it? That person is very likely to step into the casino again and lose the money they earned from performing. With no way to live, they don’t dare to go home and just continue performing, round and round. Hichalian nodded and added, what’s even sadder is that some people, even when homeless, still think. About the casino, always hoping that one day they can turn their luck around. They will go to great lengths to get money, even if it means doing something illegal. Especially infuriating are those who clearly aren’t addicted, yet after losing money, they prepare to go home. Some loan sharks have their eyes on them, lending them money to gamble, it’s truly despicable. Hichalian said angrily, this is the real Macau. Wang Chen couldn’t help but sigh, gaining some understanding of the legendary casino. Just as everyone was conversing, a figure rushed out from the casino entrance, hurrying towards them. As he got closer, they realized it was a middle-aged man in a black suit, wearing glasses. Manager Liang ran over, panting heavily, beads of sweat on his forehead. He waved his hand while running, seemingly afraid that no one would see him. When he reached the group, manager Liang slightly bent over, resting his hands on his knees, gasping for breath, and it took him a while to straighten up. Young master, miss, and young master Wang, I’m late. Manager Liang panted, adjusting his gold-rimmed glasses, looking at Wang Chan and extending his hand, saying, you can just call me Xiao Liang, young master Wang. I came as. Soon as I got the news, I truly apologize. Wang Chan reached out to shake manager Liang’s hand, shaking his head slightly, no need to be polite, we just arrived. The old man specifically instructed me to take good care of you. Manager Liang took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, his face full of smiles. This handsome man was specifically assigned by old master Hee Hongshan and he dared not be careless fearing that Wang Chen might be dissatisfied. He led the group inside. Hee Chao Lian suddenly leaned close to Wang Chen’s ear and whispered, old Liang has been working in the casino for over 20 years, starting as a dealer and now a manager, he’s quite a decent person. Wang Chen felt a bit of an itch in his ear. Looking at Hee Chao Lian’s beaming face, he nodded and slightly pulled back. Arriving at the main entrance, manager Liang opened the door and invited Wang Chen and his young master in miss inside. As soon as Wang Chin stepped in, he felt the air was much fresher. Then outside, along with the sounds of chips clinking and the scent of champagne wafting towards him, the crystal chandelier divided the entire hall into flowing gold leaf. It was a dazzling sight. Hundreds of slot machines were fully occupied. And waiters walked around with trays. Whenever needed, just a call would bring fresh fruits, sweet snacks, and drinks, all available for free as long as the casino had it. Turning past the dome painted with the twelve zodiac signs, a glass pyramid suddenly caught his eye. At the top of the pyramid hung a blue diamond the size of a pigeon egg, which under the holographic projection sometimes transformed into a deep-sea whirlpool and sometimes crystallized into icy facets. It was simply a synonym for expensive luxury. Manager Liang raised his hand to indicate to Wang Chen to look at a corner of the hall, which was surrounded by bulletproof glass to ensure nothing could be stolen. Young Master Wang, please look, that is the He Hongshan. Stars Macau new Pujin diamond. His voice unconsciously rose a few pitches, carrying a hint of undeniable pride. Hearing this, Wang Chen walked closer. He saw the diamond embedded in a pure gold lotus-shaped base, its massive size of 218.08, carats reflecting a rainbow of brilliant light under the illumination of 12 spotlights. Each facet had been meticulously polished as if it contained the starlight of the entire galaxy, and as the angle changed, the halo on the diamond’s surface shimmered as if it were alive. It was so dazzling that it was almost blinding. It exuded luxury. The purity of this diamond is miraculous, even under a hundredfold magnifying glass, no inclusions can be found. Manager Liang said, pointing to the miniature magnifying glass device under the glass cover. The cutting of this diamond is also quite meticulous. After precise calculations, it can maximize the reflection and refraction of light, so every ray of brilliance you see is particularly dazzling. Next to the He Hongshan Stark display case quietly lies the He Hongshan Star. Gathering Wealth Emerald. This is a 210.34-carat cushion-cut emerald from Colombia. Wang Chen looked up, and the emerald emitted a deep and mysterious green. light, as if he had entered the depths of the Amazon rainforest. At this moment, Hiyu Jun spoke up, for this little thing, the security system here is configured to the standards of national-level cultural relics. Is that so? Manager Liang. Nodded with a smile, that’s right. Not only is there 24-hour surveillance with no blind spots, but the glass cover is made of military-grade bulletproof material. Even if you hit it with a rocket launcher, it wouldn’t be harmed in the slightest. Moreover, our security team consists of elite veterans from special forces, ensuring the absolute safety of every gemstone. At this point, a beautiful guide in a cheapo walked over, her laser pointer aimed at the diamond as she began to tell its story. With her gentle voice, she started explaining the legendary journey from its discovery to the meticulous carving by several top jewelry craftsmen, ultimately becoming the treasure of the Macau New Lisboa. As they walked along, they saw a jade. Necklace worth tens of millions, an 18-kilogram gold sculpture of a Jiangnan spring scene, a five-layer golden dragon boat made of hundreds of kilograms of gold, a sculpture of the Monkey King and his descendants carved from the extinct prehistoric mammoth ivory, a miniature great wall carved from pure ivory, and a jade sculpture of the havoc in heaven. The collection here could be considered a small museum, but in terms of quality, it could rival a national-level museum, leaving Wang. Chen dazzled. Along the way, staff members occasionally recognized Yu Joon and respectfully called him young master or miss, they finally arrived at the entertainment area. Looking around, the gambling tables were scattered across various areas, each surrounded by people. The dealers, dressed in matching black vests, skillfully shuffled and dealt cards. In the center of the casino was the liveliest baccarat area, bustling with crowds. Gamblers either stared intently at the dealers’ cards, or nervously clutched their chips, muttering prayers for blessings from Buddha or God. Each card reveal was accompanied by a chorus of cheers or sighs. To the left was a row of slot machines. The flashing lights and dynamic sound effects constantly attracted people’s attention, with gamblers in front of the machines pulling levers and staring at the screens, hoping for a stroke of luck. Manager Liang explained that the first floor is open to everyone, while the second to fifth floors are VIP lounges. That is where the real wealthy people spend lavishly, with a minimum betting amount of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and each round’s winnings or losses could reach millions or even tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. There are also many jewelry stores and high-end brand shops such as Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Chanel, and other luxury goods. Everything you could want is here. The main selling point is that the casino makes money and the casino spends money you shouldn’t expect to take any home. Clothing, food, housing, and transportation all have the top-notch service guaranteed to empty your pockets. If you’re not interested in these beautiful women and some thrilling, you will surely be captivated by something. As long as you have money, or if you win here, what you desire will naturally come to you. You can’t help but be tempted. Such scenes cannot be seen online, photography is prohibited inside the casino, and only those who truly enter, can feel its extraordinary charm. Hiyu Jun was also a bit excited, his father was strict at home, and he rarely came here. Now his hands couldn’t help but feel a bit itchy, wanting to place a bet. He looked at Wang Chen, who also had a somewhat moved expression, and asked, what should we play first? Baccarat or Blackjack? Let’s go with Baccarat. Wang Chen replied casually. This game had appeared many times in movies, especially in films starring Zhou Ruenfa. The characters were simply too cool, but this isn’t what I expected. Wang Chen looked at the dealers, some of whom were young women. He found their appearances somewhat puzzling. Wasn’t it said that casinos were filled with stunning beauties? Why were they so ordinary, just like regular people? It was rare to see someone particularly attractive. There were many beautiful women walking around, each wearing sequined bodycon dresses and high heels. Their gazes towards Wang Chen held a hint of a smile, and their eyes sparkled as they flirted with him. After all, Wang Chen’s looks were undeniable, and being with the casino manager, old Liang, along with bodyguards, made him look like a rich second-generation heir. He was simply a quality man. If it weren’t for the bodyguards watching closely, and the presence of He Chaoxin and He Chaolian, those two beauties would have long since approached Wang Chen. Hiyajuan’s slightly handsome looks paled in comparison to Wang Chen, completely overshadowed by his brilliance. What are you thinking? We’re a legitimate establishment, okay? The dealers we hire are all professionals, not like what you see online. He Yujun reached out to stop Wang Chen’s shoulder, raising an eyebrow and whispering, the really good-looking ones are in the VIP lounge. I’ll take you up there to have a look, there’s even more fun to be had, hee hee hee. You idiot brother, are you trying to get yourself killed? If you dare take Wang Chen to play those messy games, I’ll go tell. Daddy. He Cha She knew from He Yajuan’s expression that it wasn’t anything good. She directly pinched his ear and twisted it hard. He Yujun cried out in pain, covering his ear. It seems daddy’s discipline of you is still too lax. Are you tired of? Your allowance? He Chao Lian snorted coldly. He Yujun quickly begged for mercy, his face a picture of despair, sister, little sister, ancestor. I was wrong, I was just talking nonsense. Spare me. It was just a joke, did you have to be so harsh? He Chao Xing finally let go, and He Yujun rubbed his red ear, mumbling. He Chao Lian shot him a glance and turned to Wang Chen with a gentle smile, Wang Chen, don’t listen to his nonsense. Although the VIP lounge is luxurious, the main thing is that. The stakes are higher. Those women are all vixens so don’t be curious about playing those games with that idiot brother. He Yujun secretly winked at Wang Chen, revealing an expression that any man would understand. Wang Chen smiled and nodded. He instantly understood what He Yujun meant by more fun. He was now more interested in how to play cards. As for women, He Chao Lian and He Chaoxin beside him were goddess level figures. Wasn’t that a thousand times better than anyone else? Wang. Chen believed that with his charm, as long as he wanted, he Chaoxin and he Chaolian would not be able to escape his grasp. At that moment, manager Liang saw the atmosphere easing and smiled to mediate, why don’t you young masters and missus play? A few rounds first? There’s an empty baccarat table over here. Old Liang, you go do your thing, we can play by ourselves. He Yujun turned to manager Liang and smiled. Manager Liang waved his hand, not busy, not busy. The master instructed me to take good care of young master Wang. He then whispered something to a nearby waiter. In a short while, the waiter in a black uniform came over with a tray. On it were various chips, neatly arranged. The 5 and 10 yuan chips were yellow. The 20 yuan chips were red. The 50 yuan chips were blue. The 100 yuan chips were green. The 500 yuan chips were purple. The 1,000 yuan chips were dark blue. And there were high value 10,000 yuan gold chips, black. Chips worth 100,000 and 2 million. Hiyajuan’s eyes lit up, ignoring the pain in his ears, and reached out to grab the chips. Since we’re here, let’s play a few hands to warm up. Just as he Yujun picked up the chips, manager Liang smiled and pressed down on the tray, young master, these are reserved for young master Wang. The old master specifically instructed that young master Wang’s limit is to be charged to the company. If you want to play, you’ll have to go to the exchange to follow the process. Manager Liang seemed a bit troubled but still said, you know the rules over there at the company. He Yajuan’s hand froze in midair, his face instantly turning red, old Liang, I’m playing in my own place and I still have to exchange chips. Is my dad afraid I’ll lose all his little fortune? He slammed the chips back onto the tray, causing several purple chips to bounce up. He was quite angry. He Yujun really wanted to ask if he was even his biological son. Playing with his own chips still required the manager’s approval, if this got out, where would his face go? He Chaoxin chuckled beside him, deliberately teasing, Bro, even dad knows your luck is terrible, he must be afraid you’ll lose your pants. He Yajuan’s face flushed, then he rolled his eyes and said, I’m just playing with young master Wang, didn’t the old master tell you? Tonight, we need to make sure young master Wang has a good time. Manager Liang adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, his gaze shifting between He Yu Jun and Wang Chen. What the young master says is true, if you can accompany young master Wang to have fun, that would be best. He forced a somewhat stiff smile, ultimately releasing his grip on the tray. After all, He Yu Jun was still the young master, he couldn’t afford to offend him by saying something bad in front of the old master. He couldn’t be too harsh either, so he just turned a blind eye, as it was also to make young master Wang happy, and he believed. The old master wouldn’t blame him. But please, young master, show some restraint. The account’s over at finance. He Yujun didn’t wait for him to finish grabbing two black chips and spinning them between his fingers. He glanced sideways at his sister, deliberately slapping the chips into Wang Chen’s palm. Wang Chen, tonight all expenses are on He Gongzi. Let you see the power of the gambling king. He Chaoxing crossed her arms and shook her head, leaning in to whisper to He Chaoling, bros. Stubbornness is acting up again. I’m afraid he’ll lose and give old Liang a heart attack. Who says it isn’t? But let’s just play around tonight, since dad has spoken, we’ll just say we’re riding on Wang Chen’s coattails. He Chao Ling chuckled. Softly, also reaching for a few chips. He Chao Xin nodded, usually, they didn’t get this kind of treatment. Their father had sternly warned them not to gamble, and even in their own place, they had to spend their own money. In the end, didn’t all the money just go to the company? Really stingy. Manager Leon called over a waiter and whispered a few words, then turned back with his standard professional smile, in that case, shall I reserve a table in the VIP area? It’s quieter over there. And it would be more convenient for the young master and missus to enjoy themselves. He Yujun looked at Wang Chen, asking for his opinion. No need, let’s play here for now and we can go up later. Wang Chen directly refused. The atmosphere here was what mattered. The first floor was livelier with more people. Wang Chen found a baccarat table and sat down. The dealer at this table was a somewhat cute young lady, dressed in professional attire, sitting up straight. There were only two men, gambling at this table. One was a blonde white man in his thirties. The other was an elderly Chinese man with a head full of white hair, sitting in a chair with a nurse attending to him, enjoying an ice cream cone provided by the casino. Wang Chen. Blanced at him and quickly looked away. One could only say the atmosphere here was different, a person of such age was still gambling, and his hands holding the chips were trembling. You wouldn’t see this kind of situation back home. It truly opened. His eyes. The dealer noticed the arrival of Hiyujun and the others and instantly recognized them as the children of her boss. She quickly stood up, no longer dealing cards, and respectfully called out, Young Master, Miss, Manager Liang, hello. I am the dealer at Table 5 for Baccarat, Wang Lingling. Wang Lingling, is it? No need to be so formal, we’re just playing for fun. Hiyujun waved his hand casually, his gaze sweeping over the chips on the table. Alright, Young Master. Upon hearing this, Wang Lingling gracefully sat down and continued dealing the cards that had not been finished earlier. The old man seemed to have not heard anything, enjoying being fed by the caretaker. The blonde foreigner curiously observed the few. Young masters and missus in front of him who could command such respect from the dealer and had manager Liang from the casino accompanying them. It could only be the children of the gambling king, He Hongshan. However, this foreigner did not pay too much attention, turning his gaze back to the table. Wang Chan and his group were grand and imposing. The bodyguards were scattered around, showing no signs of slack even inside the Yi family’s casino. The surrounding gamblers were immersed in. their own worlds, not paying attention to the wealthy second-generation heirs like Hiyu Jun and Wang Chen. Most of the people who came to the casino had some money or were bosses themselves, so they naturally wouldn’t pay too much attention. After Wang Chen sat down, the dealer elegantly spread her hands and smiled at Wang Chen and Hiyu Jun, saying, bets can now be placed. To reiterate, betting on player wins pays 1-1. Betting on banker pays 1-0.95. Betting on tie wins pays 1-8. As soon as the dealer finished speaking, a loud clap was heard nearby. Goodness! The elderly man with graying hair and a frail appearance placed a thousand chips on player. The foreigner next to him was not as carefree as the old man. He frowned, lowering his head to carefully examine the computer screen on the table, which displayed the historical win-loss records for this baccarat table. The last 10 rounds showed player, player, player, banker, tie, banker, player, banker, player, banker. The last round’s result was player. After hesitating for a moment, he placed a bet on banker to win, wagering 5,000. The dealer smiled and waited for Hiyu Jun and the others to place their bets, not rushing. Them. A charming smile graced her lips as she sat up straight. There was no way she could relax in front of the boss’s children, especially with someone sitting right in front of her. Wang Chen noticed there were many betting options available and. Asked, what are the rules? Hiyu Jun casually picked up a 10,000 chip and placed it on Banker. He turned to Wang Chen and explained, Baccarat is essentially about comparing point values. Players bet on Banker or Player or Tie. The. Winner is determined by which side’s points are closer to 9, or if it’s a tie. Aces to 9s are counted at face value, while 10s, J, Q, and K are counted as 0. Finally, the total points are calculated from 2 or 3 cards. If the initial 2 cards add up to 8 or 9, that’s a natural win, and no additional cards are drawn. After the cards are revealed, if neither banker nor player reaches 8 or 9, player has the priority to draw a third card. Of course, the rules for player drawing a card require the total to be less than 6 to draw a third card. The rules for banker are much more complex. P.S. I won’t elaborate further here. There are also bets on pairs, banker pairs, player pairs, big, small, and other gameplay. Options. After He Yajuan’s explanation, Wang Chen had a rough understanding of how to play Baccarat. He glanced at the historical records and picked up a 10,000 chip, placing it on the player betting position. I’ll bet on player 2. He Chaoling smiled at Wang Chen and followed suit. She was indifferent to whether she would win or lose, betting whatever Wang Chen bet. After all, winning or losing was all in the family. he chowling gave her a faint glance rolled her eyes and placed her bet on banker the dealer seeing all the bets placed skillfully took the cards from the dealing box and began to deal after dealing two cards each to the banker and the player she revealed them the banker had three five the player had two seven the dealer’s lips curled into a smile as she announced in a clear voice the player has a total of nine points a natural winner the player wins fuck the white man cursed under his breath downing a cocktail in one go the dealer expertly counted the chips and stacked them in front of them The old man’s caretaker, seeing the winnings, beamed with joy, while the old man himself showed no reaction, silently accepting the chips. See, I told you betting with you was the right choice. He Chao XIN exclaimed, nearly jumping with excitement as she cheerfully spoke to Wang Chen. After saying that, she helped the dealer gather the chips that Wang Chen and she had won. According to the rules of Baccarat, the payout for the player. Winning is 1 to 1, so Wang Chen won 10,000 Hong Kong dollars this round. He Chao Exan reached out to take the chips and handed them to Wang Chen, her eyes filled with admiration and joy. Here you go, big winner. Looks like luck is on my side today. Wang Chen said with a smile as he accepted the chips. Why is it still the player? He Yujun said, a bit frustrated as he rubbed his forehead. Losing just 10,000 in chips wasn’t a big deal to him, so he shrugged it off and prepared to think about what to bet on next. Oh dear, it seems I was unlucky just now, I should follow brother Wang Chen’s bets. He Chao Lian said, sticking out her tongue playfully. Manager Liang leaned closer to Wang Chen, a broad smile on his face. Young Master Wang, your luck is simply divine. Just sitting here has changed the feng shui of the whole place. After saying that, he took out a box of exquisite cigars and said with a grin, I bought this box of cigars at a high price, would. You like one, Young Master Wang? No, thanks. Wang Chen waved his hand, declining his offer. He Yujun, however, unceremoniously snatched one, taking a deep puff from it. Old Liang, why didn’t you bring out such good stuff earlier? Manager. Liang smiled awkwardly and pulled out a gold -plated lighter from his pocket to light it for Hiyu Jun if you like it, young master, I can get you another box later. But you should smoke less, someone like young master Wang looks healthy, unlike. Me, an old chain smoker. I have a feeling that tonight, young master Wang will definitely be blessed by the god of wealth, and with such good fortune, he will surely win every bet. Old Liang, you’re something else. Hiyu Jun teased, when did. You learn to talk like this? It actually sounds pretty good. Manager Liang felt a bit embarrassed, his face turning red. However, his complexion was already close to a yellowish black, so it wasn’t very noticeable. Wang Chen chuckled at this, playing. With the two chips in his hand. Soon, the dealer began to quickly tidy up the table and announced the next round of betting. Betting starts now, the dealer elegantly spread her hands and smiled. Wang Chen paused his chip play and placed them. In the banker’s betting area, with He Chao Xien and He Chao Lien following suit. The old man bet on the player again, and this time he bet big, pushing all the chips in front of him forward. Wang Chen glanced over, it looked like around 50 to 60. Thousand. The blonde white man gritted his teeth and also bet on the player, pulling out a golden chip to wager 10,000 Hong Kong dollars. Hiyu Jun casually placed a black chip worth 100,000 in the Thai betting area. Cigar smoke. Wafted from the corner of Hiyu Jun’s mouth. Baccarat is all about the thrill. Everyone is rushing to bet on the banker and player with such low odds, the Thai pays 8 to 1. Just watch, I’ll win all your money. Bro, bet with me, I feel great. Right now, let me show you the style of a gambling god. Ha ha ha, do you really think of yourself as a gambling god? He Chao Exai and waved her hand in disdain and mocked, so what? He Ujun was not worried about betting on Tai, instead, he looked quite confident. As the few of them finished placing their bets, the dealer began to deal the cards again. As soon as the cards were dealt, He Ujun shouted, hurry up and reveal the cards, this round is definitely a Tai. The dealer, smiled slightly and extended her fair hand to flip over the cards. The points for the banker and the player appeared before them. Damn. What surprised Hieu Jun was that the result this time was actually banker, and Wang Chen had indeed guessed. It right. The blonde foreigner looked very angry, muttering a few curses under his breath before getting up to leave. The old man also frowned deeply. He then had the nanny behind him help him change to another table to continue playing baccarat. Wang Chen picked up the four chips he had won and smiled faintly. It seemed that today’s luck was indeed his manager Liang had said, great fortune all around. Brother Wang Chen is really amazing. He chowly and stared at Wang Chen, her eyes. sparkling with admiration. This look of admiration made Wang Chen feel quite good. There should be no man in the world who could remain unaffected under the gaze of the world’s number one heiress He Chao Lian. Such charm is irresistible to any man. Wang Chen was no exception. With such a beautiful woman by his side, it would be a lie if he said he wasn’t moved. A smile crept onto his lips as he held He Chao Lian’s delicate hand. He Chao Lian was startled and instinctively wanted to pull back. But Wang Chen held on tightly. She struggled symbolically a few times before finally allowing Wang Chen to hold her hand. Wang Chen grasped her hand and placed the chips in the banker position, smiling as he said, I think tonight’s luck is good, we should ride the wave of success. I’m betting 100,000 this round. However, He Chao Lian’s cheeks grew even redder and she lowered her head, not daring to meet He Chao Exian’s furious gaze. Her heart felt like a little rabbit trapped. Inside, pounding wildly, she secretly glanced at Wang Chen’s handsome face, her eyes filled with increasing infatuation. Originally, her father wanted her and her sister He Chao Exian to get close to Wang Chen, hoping one of them would marry him. Seeing. Her sister being so proactive towards Wang Chen, he Chao Exan, who had some feelings for Wang Chen, was prepared to step aside for her sister, after all, she couldn’t compete with her little sister for a man. She thought of it as completing a task. Spending some time with Wang Chen. But after spending the night together, she found herself liking Wang Chen more and more, especially after he held her hand. This feeling grew stronger. Usually, if a man outside her family touched her, she would. Have slapped him long ago, let alone being held by a man. But at this moment, all she wanted was to find a place to bury her head. She didn’t dare to look at Yi Chao Xien and He Yu Jun’s faces. Wang Chen was such a jerk. How could he hold her? Han when she hadn’t even agreed to be his girlfriend, oh, carrot, oh Yi Chao Xien bit her teeth tightly, her eyes practically spitting fire. How could this happen? Clearly, she was the one who knew Wang Chen first. Didn’t her sister realize that she liked? Wang Chen? How could she take the initiative to hold Wang Chen’s hand? What a bad woman. Jealousy blinded her eyes, she refused to believe that Wang Chen was the one who took the initiative, while Yi Chao Lian was the one being proactive. She slammed the chips in her hand onto the player position, her chest heaving violently, the banker just won, this time, the player must win. He Yujun saw her angry expression and didn’t dare to speak, following suit by betting on the banker. He was also somewhat disappointed with the progress of Wang Chan and He Chao Lien’s relationship. Although He Chao Lien was his sister, she belonged to the third branch, while he and He Chao Xien shared the same mother, so logically and emotionally, he should lean towards He Chao Xien. However, such matters couldn’t be forced. He didn’t want to say much, only letting out a sigh for his sister. Wang Chen’s family background was enviable even to him, if Zhao Xian liked him, marrying him would indeed be a. Tremendous blessing, originally, children from families like theirs rarely encounter true love. It’s easier for boys, as they can at least strive for the ones they like, but for girls, it’s quite difficult to resist the men arranged by their families. Just right, Wang Chen is suitable, and Zhao Xian likes him. It’s somewhat regrettable for this outcome. He Yujun shook his head, but a charming figure slowly emerged in his mind. If Shi Mangyao also liked him, it would be great, just like how his little sister and Wang Chen are, he really struggled to pursue her. Shi Mangyao always regarded him as a child. It’s truly frustrating. In this round, as expected, the banker won again, and Wang Chen, He Chao Lian, and He Yu Jun won once more. Only He Chao Xin pouted in anger. The game continued. In the subsequent bets, Wang Chen didn’t win every time, there were both wins and losses, but overall, he won more often. After a shy start, He Chao Lian regained some composure, though she still felt. a bit embarrassed to look at He Chaoxin and the others. Instead, she leaned closer to Wang Chen. Manager Liang, who had been standing behind, observed all of this with a smile on his face. He secretly took a photo with his phone and sent it to the old master, along with a message, everything is going smoothly, Miss Chaolian and young master Wang’s relationship is developing rapidly. The reply came back quickly. After reading it, manager Liang’s smile grew even wider. He glanced at He Chaoxin. And He Chaolian, hesitated for a moment and then sent the photo to the fourth and third concubines. He Chao Lian and the others were unaware of this, continuing to play Baccarat, at the He family villa, in a luxurious room on the second floor. He Hongshan had just woken from a nap and smiled with satisfaction upon seeing the message from manager Liang. It didn’t matter which daughter Wang Chen favored, to him, they were all the same. However, the progress of their relationship was still a bit slow. He needed to add a little more fuel to the fire. He instructed the nanny to find the butler downstairs, whispered a few words in his ear, and then turned his attention back to the sports program on TV, his worries dissipating somewhat. The fourth and third concubines also received the message from manager Liang. The fourth concubine felt somewhat disappointed with the current outcome, sighed, and put down her phone. But she also knew that young people’s matters couldn’t be forced. Moreover, she was in charge of the Shang Poo Jean resort, so the inheritance was just a matter of a little more or a little less. She didn’t care much about it. The third concubine, on the other hand, was very happy. However, she couldn’t celebrate. Too openly. During this time, the old master had been unwell, so the sisters had come to the villa to take care of him. They were all resting in the adjacent room. The excited third concubine, with nowhere to vent her feelings, took out her phone to send a message to her daughter, offering encouragement. Truly, her daughter was remarkable. Not only did she perfectly inherit her beauty, but her emotional intelligence was also very high. So what if that girl met Wang Chen in Hong Kong first? Wang Chen was still captured by Chao Lian. Wang Chen now liked Chalian more, as long as her daughter was a bit more proactive, they could confirm their relationship during Wang Chen’s time in Macau. If successful, she would become a lady of the Wang family. As for the He family’s wealth, what did it matter? The He family’s fortune was unimaginable to ordinary people, but there were many to share it with. The wives of He Hongchen had more than 10 children below them, plus grandchildren. How much? Could each person get? Moreover, the more she looked at Wang Chen, the more she liked him, his family background, appearance, and character were all top-notch. And there was one significant difference with the He family. In this generation of the Wang family, he was the only boy. Not to mention the family’s connections in the military and political circles, the He family couldn’t compare at all. Even Wang Chen’s father, Wang Jianguo, led the Xianfeng Heavy Industry Group and his mother, Xia, Huilan, was with the Huayao Group. These were giants in the heavy industry and pharmaceutical sectors. Just like the He family’s status in the Macau casino industry, the positions of Xianfeng Heavy Industry Group and Huayao Group were even more. stable than theirs.If Yi Chalian married Wang Chen, she might be able to sit in the main house. All these things would be inherited by Wang Chen in the future, what a huge fortune that is. The third concubine couldn’t believe it but she knew that. Once it happened, she wouldn’t have to entangle herself in this big family anymore. She no longer cared for the Yi family’s assets and would move back to the mainland directly. Perhaps her status on the mainland would be even more prestigious than in. Macau. On the first floor of the new Lisboa Casino, after playing Baccarat for a while, Wang Chan and his friends won and lost, ending up with an extra 130 ,000 chips. Wang Chan couldn’t help but exclaim, No wonder before coming here, old master. He Hong said that only the banker would win. With this kind of gameplay, it would be strange to win. Under the rules, it was just a way to have fun. Don’t think about winning big money unless you really have unbeatable luck. But even those with good luck, the casino had already anticipated. The architecture and layout inside the casino were designed by real masters. The concept of feng shui is not just empty talk in high society. A few individuals might believe it, but most wealthy people do. And those who have climbed up from the bottom also believe in their ancestors’ feng shui and fortune-telling, praying to gods and buddhas, which inevitably sparks imagination. After this round, Wang Chen won another 10,000 chips. He casually tossed a 10,000 chip to the dealer and said lightly, a gift for you. Thank you, young master Wang, thank you so much. The dealer girl received the chip, pleasantly surprised, continuously expressing her gratitude. The cost of living in Macau is quite high. She only makes a few thousand a month as a dealer, so ten thousand can buy her something nice to eat. I’m tired of playing, let’s find another game, Wang Chen said as he stood up. He chally and followed suit, and the hand Wang Chen was holding did not let go. She turned her head to look elsewhere and naturally wrapped her arm around his. Wang Chen felt his hands sink into a soft embrace, and he glanced at her in confusion. He really hadn’t noticed. Besides being good-looking, her figure was quite nice too. He Chalian’s ample bosom pressed against Wang Chen’s arm, almost deforming it. She also had a pair of beautiful eyes, sparkling as she looked at Wang Chen, and he nearly couldn’t hold himself together. It was truly captivating. The others also stood up one after another. He Chaoxin felt quite disheartened. She fiddled with the hem of her clothes, silently following Wang Chen’s side. Wang Chen turned to look around, there were tables for Texas Hold’em, Russian Roulette, Blackjack, and other games. He approached each one to experience them. He Chalian watched as Wang Chen dominated the gambling table, unable to resist clapping and exclaiming, Brother Wang Chen, you won again. So amazing, and it’s still nyo nyo. He. Chalian’s voice sounded particularly grating in He Chaoxin’s ears. She snorted coldly and muttered, It’s not you who won, what’s there to be happy about? He Yujun glanced at her and reached out to comfort his little sister. As an older brother, he certainly hoped He Chaoxin could have her wishes fulfilled, but he couldn’t force Wang Chen to like her, could he? Suddenly, an idea flashed through He Yajuan’s mind. What if he asked Wang Chen if he minded having another girlfriend? Hiss. Slap. Thinking of this, he slapped himself hard. Dammit, this is his own sister, how could he let her do such a thing? There are plenty of good men in the world. Even if Wang Chen didn’t like her, couldn’t his little sister find someone satisfactory? However, He Yujun glanced at Wang Chen’s extraordinarily handsome face and couldn’t help but worry for his little sister. It would be hard to find someone who could match Wang Chen’s looks besides him, He Yujun. Would his little sister end up? lonely for the rest of her life? Hiyujun shook his head repeatedly, letting out a heavy sigh.Hichashin looked at her older brother who inexplicably slapped her, his gaze towards her feeling strange. Unable to hold back, she asked, brother, what’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? It’s nothing. Hiyujun sighed again, stroking his chin. They were born of the same mother, so how could his little sister’s emotional intelligence be so low? She was nothing like his sharp mind. However, if she could channel the spirit he had when pursuing Ximangyao, there might still be hope. With his powerful brain, he could strategize from behind the scenes. He wasn’t worried about not being able to win over Wang Chen. It seemed he needed to teach his little sister properly, she was still too young. Wang Chen paid no attention to He Chaoxin and He Yajuan’s strange behavior, happily playing games with He Chaolian. Brother Wang Chen, let’s play the slot machine. It’s so much fun. He Chaolian cheerfully pulled Wang Chen’s hand and led him to an empty slot machine. The two squeezed onto one chair. He Chalian was almost entirely pressed against Wang Chen, the rose-scented fragrance of her hair mixed with her body scent. Made his nose tingle. Brother Wang Chen, let’s pull together. Her fingers rested on the button, deliberately waiting for Wang Chen to reach out and hold her hand. This was a game called Get Away. Based on the patterns that appeared, odds were given. According to the rules. They both pulled the lever at the same time, and the patterns on the screen began to spin wildly. Suddenly, colorful lights exploded on the screen. He Chalian suddenly cheered and jumped up, her softness brushing against. Wang Chen’s arm. We won. We won. He Chalian pointed at a string of connected patterns on the screen, looking very surprised. The odds for this pattern were 5,000 times. It was her first time hitting the jackpot after playing so many times. Did we really win just like that? Wang Chen was a bit astonished, they had barely pulled once and already won. He lowered his head and happened to see He Chalian’s uplifted face, with tiny sparkles stuck to her eyelashes and her eyes wide. Open. Before he could react, He Chalian took a slip of paper from the machine, which had a string of numbers written on it, 5000000. Brother Wang Chen, you’re so lucky. It’s all because of you that we hit the jackpot. How can the odds be so? Hi, 5 million? Wang Chen asked, looking at He Chalian’s smiling face. Nearby, He Yujun heard the jackpot music from Wang Chen’s side, leaned over to look, and nearly had his eyes pop out when he saw the numbers. He Yajuan’s face was full of disbelief as he said, Wang Chen, how can you be so lucky? Others spin all day without winning a big prize, and you and sister Chaolian just sat down and exploded? It’s a pity we only bet a thousand ships, otherwise, we would have made a fortune. Tonight, He Chaolian blinked her eyes and said happily, if daddy knew, he would definitely feel heartbroken, hahaha. It’s not your doing, it’s all Wang Chen’s credit, He Chaoxin said sourly. She watched the increasingly close relationship between Wang Chen and He Chaolian, feeling helpless. She wanted to talk to Wang Chen more, but there was no way. He Chaoxing felt like crying without tears, picked up a handful of chips, and stuffed them into the slot machine. She set it to the maximum value and started spinning in circles. However, it seemed that the goddess of fortune did not favor her. After spinning hundreds of times, although there were moments of winning, her points began to decrease at a specific rate. In the end, it completely returned to zero. Frustrated, she took out her phone to send a message to her mother, hoping for some comfort. Wang Chen took He Chaolian around most of the slot machines in the casino. The gameplay was actually quite similar. They all. involved special patterns appearing, entering an interesting scene, and then winning a jackpot. Aside from the first game where they hit the jackpot, there was only one small prize of a thousand times later and the rest were just a few times or dozens. Of times rewards, nothing much to say. Moreover, the 5 million they had previously won was now down to just 3 million .Wengchen discovered this time that playing the slot machines could also lead to significant losses, losing 500 or a thousand with each spin didn’t seem like much. Over 2 million in chips was easily drained away. At that moment, Wang Chen noticed a commotion coming from the Baccarat Hall in the distance. He turned his head to look and saw a crowd gathered. There, with many people heading in that direction. He turned to Yi Chaolian and asked, what’s going on over there? Yi Chaolian glanced over and shook her head, then inquired of Manager Liang, what’s happening over there, old Liang? Manager Liang, who had long been aware of the situation, smiled and respectfully said, Miss Chaolian, there’s a long dragon over there, many people are following the dragon, and some are preparing to place heavy bets to cut the dragon. Upon hearing this, he Chalian immediately understood what was happening. Brother Wang Chen, you definitely don’t know what a long dragon is, do you? Seeing Wang Chen’s confused expression, he Chalian asked playfully. Her voice was authoritative yet sweet, making it quite charming. I don’t know. A long dragon occurs in Baccarat when there are consecutive wins for either the banker or the player, if it happens five times, it’s called a short dragon. More than five times is a long dragon. Wang Chen nodded and asked again, then what’s the deal with cutting the dragon and following the dragon? Following the dragon means that the gambler believes the next round will yield the same result as the previous one, so they place their bets accordingly, this is called following the dragon. Cutting the dragon means betting against the player when the long dragon is for the banker, believing that the chances of the player winning are slightly higher. That’s why it’s called cutting the dragon. Whenever this situation arises, people in the casino get very excited, this happens several times a day. Many people end up winning because of it, he chally and patiently explained. After all, Wang Shin had never played in a casino, so it was normal for him not. to know. It would be strange if he did understand. Generally, families of high status are very strict with their children, let alone allowing them to play in a casino. Wang Chen nodded thoughtfully, so according to probability theory, there should be many people betting on cutting the dragon, right? Not necessarily. He chally and shook her head, her lips parting slightly, I can’t explain it clearly in terms of probability, but historically, the longest long dragon occurred 60 times in a row. Wang Chen couldn’t help but be shocked. He could easily imagine how desperate those who placed bets would feel if a long dragon appeared 60 times. After a long dragon appeared 10 or 20 times, each bet became a psychological game. Who could guarantee whether the next result would be the banker or the player? Logically, each round of cards is an independent game and the outcome of one does not affect the previous results, yet the same result appeared dozens of times in a row. How could one bet on that? Simply using probability to explain it was insufficient. This is why many people are obsessed with Baccarat, this is its allure. He Yujun was also drawn in by the noise from that direction. He turned to Wang Chan and asked, shall we go take a look? Sure. Wang Chan stood up and walked toward that side. They hadn’t gone far when a commotion erupted at the entrance of the casino. Why is the eldest sister here? He Chao Lian exclaimed in surprise as she looked. Over. Wang Chan followed her gaze and saw the eldest sister, He Chao Cheong, walking toward them surrounded by a group of bodyguards. Many people along the way greeted her, some even excitedly wanting to take photos. Seeing the nonchalant expressions. On He Chao Lian and the others’ faces, Wang Chen instantly understood. He Ye Jun, He Chao Lian, and the others were still young and hadn’t made much of a name for themselves. People in Macau knew that the Ye family had these few children, but very few recognized them. Moreover, most of the people coming here had only a few coins to their name. When out and about, they were treated as bosses, and even if they recognized He Ye Jun and the others, they wouldn’t be so excited. But He Chao Cheong was different. She was a well-known figure in Macau.He Chaochong spent 100 billion to build the MGM resort, which encompasses a comprehensive range of leisure and entertainment facilities, earning her the title of goddess of gambling in Macau. MGM’s annual profits reach hundreds of billions. It’s truly terrifying. Compared to the complexities of other companies, this kind of profit is just too easy. Build a few buildings, buy some equipment, and pay a bit of labor costs, and it’s a money-printing factory. He Chaocheong is undoubtedly one of the most famous people in all of Macau, and they couldn’t help but feel excited, they rarely had the chance to meet her, and now they wanted to see the legendary goddess of gambling in person. Before long, He Chaocheong approached a few people. Nearing 60, she still exuded charm, and one could see from her brows and eyes that she was a great beauty in her youth. She wore a fitted suit in classic black and white, simple yet elegant. The waist design of the suit was just right, accentuating her graceful figure that had withstood the test of time. underneath she wore a silk blouse that added a touch of femininity to her overall look her hair was styled in soft waves and she adorned her ears with a pearl necklace she had worn for years she appeared both dignified and elegant perfectly showcasing the blend of professionalism and femininity as she approached she nodded at he you jun and the others smiling at wang chen as she spoke young master wang we meet again sister we just had a meal together it shouldn’t have been too long ago wang chen replied casually as he and his children had become familiar with He Cha Chong noticed the closeness between He Chao Lian and Wang Chen, a glimmer of joy flashing in her eyes. She had already known about their situation before coming, but not seeing it with her own eyes left her somewhat uneasy. Now, a heavy stone in her heart finally lifted. There were no women in their family of suitable age for Wang Chen. She didn’t expect anything to happen between them, as long as Wang Chen and Chao Lian could get along, that was what she wished for. Her father, He. Hongchen, need not fear that the He family would not withstand the storms after a hundred years. With the top aristocracy of Hua Guad around, as long as the Wang family stood strong, the Yi family would not have to fear any challenges. Perhaps she could even leverage the Wang family’s influence to completely dominate the casino industry in Macau, driving out the other casinos, and truly become the goddess of gambling. He Chaocheon’s expression was warm as she smiled, I heard from my people that you and Chaocheon are here to have fun in Zinpugin, so I came to take a look. She added, I also want to invite you to my casino for a visit. Since you’re already in Zinpugin, you can’t be biased, you must stay with me for a night. My MGM is no worse than Xinpugen and you’ll definitely love the seaside view. Sure. Wang Chen casually agreed to such a small matter. But there’s a long dragon over there, let’s go join the excitement first. He Chaocheon followed Wang Chen’s gaze and saw dozens of people gathered around a Baccarat table, quite excited. It was very common for Baccarat to have a long dragon situation, so she wasn’t surprised. She then walked towards that direction with Wang Chen, He Yujun, and He Chaocheon, their group grand and imposing, with their bodyguards totaling nearly a hundred. However, once they entered the casino, it became somewhat inconvenient to crowd together. Only a little over 10 people remained close to Wang Chen while the rest dispersed. Around, vigilantly watching for any signs of trouble, ready to respond to any emergencies. Some gamblers nearby had been paying attention to Yi Chaocheong and upon seeing her with Wang Chen and Hiyu Jun, they whispered among themselves, Who? Are these people? Why are they walking with Yi Chaocheong? Who knows, I only know that the woman with that pretty boy is really damn beautiful. Those two girls are really something, if only I could spend a wonderful night with them, he he. Hey. Bunch of idiots, do you know who that is? She’s the daughter of the he family, he chow chung is their big sister. Saying this in the he family’s casino, are you looking for trouble? Damn, why didn’t you say so earlier? The few who realized they had misspoken turned pale instantly, lowering their heads and hurriedly walking towards the casino exit, afraid someone would overhear and come looking for trouble. The murmurs disappeared in an instant, no one daring to discuss further. Only a few young people looked at Wang Chen with strange eyes, exchanging glances, a bit excited. One of the boys spoke up, how about we go over and give it a try? I heard Wang Chen is pretty easygoing, even if we can’t take a photo, we can at least say a few words. Yeah, yeah, it would be such a shame to miss out on seeing our idol in real life. A sweet looking girl chimed in. Saying this, the two girls and the boy quickly walked towards Wang Chen. They soon arrived in front of Wang Chen and his group. Wang Chen stopped, looking at them in confusion and asked, who are you? The sweet-looking girl’s cheeks flushed instantly, her hands nervously twisting the ham of her dress, I, we are third-year students at the music school. In Magic City, we are your fans. The girl was so excited she could barely speak. Another girl, unable to watch any longer, spoke with a Shaanxi accent, we are all your fans, can we take a few photos with you? The boy beside her smiled shyly, quickly taking out his phone to show Wang Chen his follow on dying, proving he was indeed a fan. Sir, ma’am, this is the casino’s interior, and according to the rules, taking photos is not allowed, manager Liang said, glancing at Wang Chen and he, Chaocheong, looking a bit troubled. It’s just a group photo. We’re not taking pictures of the gambling table. Yeah, yeah. Before the young people could feel disappointed, he Chaocheong waved her hand and said, manager Liang, it’s just a few photos. Let them take them. Manager Liang was just saying this casually, he was the casino manager and couldn’t actively break the rules in front of the boss’s son. Regardless of how He Yujun and He Cha Chong reacted, he had to maintain his attitude. The university students quickly thanked him. Then they took out their phones, looking at Wang Chen with anticipation. Wang Chen didn’t refuse, these were his fans, and he didn’t put on any airs, taking photos with each of them for keepsakes. Then the group left happily. He Chalian glanced at them and teased Wang Chen, I didn’t expect you to have fans? Are you that popular on the mainland? A little, but it’s definitely not as easy as it is in Macau. Wang Chen nodded with a sigh. He Chao Ching. Spoke up, you probably don’t know, but brother Wang Chen has more fans on the mainland than first-line stars. It seems it’s because of Wang Sikong and Qin from that brother Wang Chen exploded online. You know all this? Wang Chen looked at he. Chaoqing in surprise. If this were back in the mainland, he wouldn’t be so surprised if someone knew this clearly, but this was Macau. It was connected to the international scene. The apps people used here weren’t faixing or dying. From Magic City, to Hong Kong and then to Macau, the locals who could recognize him were few and far between, let alone know him so well. Of course. He Chao Qing tilted her fair, delicate neck, her eyes sparkling. I’ve watched all the videos of Brother Wang Chen. Online. Usually I tell you to study hard, you say reading gives you a headache, but now when it comes to your Brother Wang Chen, you’re all focused. He Chao Qing chuckled, covering her mouth. Looking at the young people, a hint of nostalgia. Flashed in her eyes. Back then, in front of the person she liked, she seemed to be just like this, wishing to put her whole heart into the other person, unfortunately, the person I loved most passed away young. He Chao Lian and He Yu Jun almost. couldn’t help but laugh out loud. He chow x i and glared at them for mocking her, angrily stamping her foot, then boldly looked at Wang Chen. It was as if she was saying, I care about you, so what, bite me. Soon they arrived at the baccarat hall where a long winning streak was happening. It was already packed, with many people standing on chairs to see what was going on inside. Damn, the banker has won 12 times in a row. The next round is definitely a player, so many people are betting on the player to win. Nonsense. I say the next round will still be the banker. Didn’t you see the banker won with scores above 7 in the previous rounds? The trend is too good. Now we have something to play with. Intense discussions erupted. From inside. It seemed that this round was the 13th. Wang Chan and the others arrived just in time. The winning streak was still ongoing. The bodyguards and the staff nearby automatically made way for Wang Chan and his group. The people. Initially crowding in front were pushed aside, cursing loudly. but when they saw it was he chow chong and he yu june they immediately shut up and quickly vacated their spots these few were all big shots they were not to be trifled with in no time they reached the gambling table wang shin looked around the 12 person table was filled with players and the table was piled high with chips all nervously watching the dealer deal the cards the dealer was a man in his 30s and upon seeing manager liang and he chow chong he quickly smiled and became more serious in dealing soon four cards were dealt The player needed a hit, and the dealer casually dealt one more card. The final result was player 6 points, banker 7 points. As soon as this result came out, a whale erupted in the crowd. Damn it, how is it the banker winning again? My 100,000 is gone just like that. If I had known, I wouldn’t have bet on the player. Who told you to bet on the player? Betting on the banker would have been better. I won 300,000 this round. Curses and cheers filled the air. Many regretted betting on the player and losing money, pounding their chests in frustration, while some who bet on. The banker were happy, some calm and indifferent. After glancing at the result, the dealer announced, player 6 points, banker 7 points. Banker wins. He then began calculating the chips each player should receive. Nearly half the people stood. Up in anger and turned to leave. No need to say, these few must have lost a lot and couldn’t continue gambling. Wang Chen watched as they hadn’t gone far when some men and women approached them, saying something. He shook his head and directly sat. Down, with He Chao Lian and He Chao Xian sitting on either side of him. He Chao Cheong and He Yu Jun. They followed and took their seats. No one dared to sit in the empty spots, even though there were extra seats as the big shots like He Chao Cheung were still standing behind. Their status was evident. They didn’t dare to sit down first. After Wang Chen and the others were seated, there was still one empty chair left and a middle-aged man hurriedly sat down. He flashed a flattering smile towards He Chao Cheung, nodding repeatedly. After the dealer cleared the chips, he announced the start of betting for the 14th round. Everyone began to place their bets. Brother Wang Chen, what do you think we should bet on? He Chao Lian asked. Wang Chen, sitting beside him. Banker. Wang Chen pondered for a moment and said instinctively. He picked up a 1 million chip and threw it on the table, landing it precisely in the banker’s betting area. Brother Wang Chen is betting on the banker, then I’ll bet on the banker to win too. He Chao Xan said with a smile, following Wang Chen’s lead. He Cha Chaom carefully looked at the trend chart on the screen and smiled, the dealer’s trend is good, it should last for a few more rounds. She picked up a 1 million chip and placed it on the dealer. Many people, seeing Yi Chaocheong betting on the dealer, also stopped hesitating and followed suit. However, some believed that this round would break the dragon, betting on the player. To win, and there were quite a few of these people. At this moment, Wang Chen was carefully observing the few people present. There were both middle-aged and elderly individuals, all dressed in luxurious clothing, each accompanied by a few people. Clearly wealthy individuals here to spend and seek entertainment. As the betting began, besides those at the table, the people standing around also started placing their bets. After the betting stopped, the table was piled high with chips, and Wang Chen estimated there must be around 20 to 30 million. This was still with a betting limit of 1 million at this table. If it were in the VIP room upstairs, the betting limit would be even higher, with a single round’s win or loss reaching over 100 million, which was simply terrifying, yet still, running a casino is profitable. Just a few dozen square meters, with one table, and a single round’s win or loss could exceed 10 million, allowing the casino to earn millions based on the losses. And this was just within a few minutes. However, Wang Shin had no intention of running a casino, there were too many profitable businesses in the world, and he was not lacking in money. How many families have been torn apart by gambling? How many people have lost all their money due to addiction and then turned to high-interest loans, only to end up breaking the law in a desperate attempt to recover their losses at the casino? Once someone falls into the trap of gambling, addiction, returning to their original life path is not easy. He was originally someone who had crossed over and been reborn, and he carried a system with him. He had no doubts about the existence of spirits and gods, on the contrary, he believed in them deeply and had to believe. Otherwise, if there were no spirits or gods, no existence that could wield great power, how could there be someone like him, a reborn individual? He did not want to earn money stained with blood, investing in the industry was much better, relying on foresight and awareness, with the ability to make money surpassing all companies in the world. As the betting concluded, the dealer began to deal the cards again, the dark red poker sliding precisely into position. On the green table. The scene instantly fell silent. The surrounding crowd instinctively held their breath and the sound of breathing became somewhat jarring in the slightly quiet atmosphere. A middle-aged man in casual wear, wearing a patek. Philippe on his wrist, looked nervously at the dealer dealing the cards, taking a gulp of champagne in his hand. The tense expression on his face eased considerably. The young lady sitting next to him stared intently at the dealer, forgetting to blink. Dealer’s card, seven points. The dealer flipped over the dealer’s first card, and a wail erupted from the crowd. The first card was a 7, very likely a natural winner. The dealer wins again. The middle-aged man with the Patek Philippe let out a sigh of relief, leaning back comfortably against his chair. Just now, he had bet on the dealer, hoping that this round would continue the winning streak. Clearly, he had bet right. The lady beside him sighed in disappointment but still kept her. Eyes glued to the dealer, knowing that until the last moment, anything could happen. He Ujun was also a bit nervous, letting out a breath. Brother, it’s stable. The dealer wins again. Wang Chen chuckled softly, tapping his fingertips on the table. Player’s card, 3 points. Second dealer’s card, 2 points. Second player’s card, 5 points. Dealer wins. The dealer pushed the chips toward the dealer area and the million chips in front of Wang Chen instantly stacked up too. More layers. Surrounding them were low size, some people slapped the table in frustration while others quickly took out their phones to calculate the trend for the next round. Damn. I bet against it again. A young man in a Gavinci shirt slammed. The table, his eyes filled with anger. He didn’t care that his drink had spilled all over the floor. The bodyguard behind him quickly handed over a towel to wipe off the water splashed on him. A wealthy lady adorned with an emerald necklace furrowed. Her brows and turned to the person beside her, saying, go exchange for some more chips. I refuse to believe this nonsense. This dragon must be taken down today. The subordinate behind the wealthy lady’s back twitched his eyelids but could only bow. And hurry off to do her bidding, not daring to dissuade her. Many people were watching the unfolding situation on the video, shaking their heads repeatedly. It was truly uncertain what to bet on next. Several people at the table got up and left. However, in an instant, others sat down again. After all, there were too many with a gambling addiction, the more chaotic the situation, the more excited they became. Because this was when big money could be made. Soon, bets were placed again. Wang Chen continued to be the dealer. He Yujun placed another bet on Tai, but it was obvious that he lost the chips in hand. The banker won again. People came and went at the table, some left after losing money, while others cashed out after winning. not daring to continue playing. However, the dragon had not yet broken. In the 20th round, Wangchen bet on the player, but the banker appeared again. He no longer placed bets on the player. He obediently bet back to his original position. Each round was a bet on the banker, and the bets were all 1 million chips. By the 34th round, the banker still appeared, and Heujun could finally sit still no longer, saying, how much longer will this dragon last? It seems endless. Is this situation common? It’s too hard to bet on. Wang Chen had to admit that it was indeed difficult to make a choice in such a situation, not knowing how to bet next. If it weren’t for the fact that he didn’t care about money, he wouldn’t. Be so calm now. More and more people gathered around. Many even received news and came here specifically from other casinos. Such a situation was rare to see. Many had only heard of it but had never witnessed it, naturally curious about such matters. And hurried over. It’s hard to encounter. The banker has won 34 times in a row. The odds are lower than winning the lottery. He Zhaoqiang twirled the ring on her finger, somewhat sighing. She suddenly turned to Wang Chen, I heard that. Young master Wang studied finance, you should know how low the probability of this situation is. Wang Chen rubbed the edge of the chips with his fingertips and nodded. If he didn’t know this was the Yi family’s venue, and the wins and losses were. Still on the account of He Hongchen, the Yi family wouldn’t set him up in such a matter. He would have suspected that someone was cheating. Encountering a once in a century 34 consecutive wins was unbelievable. Aside from betting on the. Player in the 20th round, Wang Chen had been betting on the banker ever since. Now, the chips the waiter was carrying behind him were increasing more and more. He Xiaolian and He Xiaoshin followed Wang Chen in betting, having a great time. Most of the chips around them had come to their side. Many were losing so much they were questioning their lives, wondering if someone had set them up. It was simply outrageous. At this point, the vast majority of people dared not place bets, no one wanted to gamble on whether there was really a problem. They couldn’t afford to lose too much money. Only those who were confident in themselves or had substantial funds were willing to sit at the table and continue betting, while the rest watched. From the sidelines. I believe in brother Wang Chen, the banker will definitely win. He Xiaoshin still believed in Wang Chen, following him and placing bets. He jolly and gripped a black chip with her fingertips, gazing at Wang Chen’s confident profile. As he placed his bets, somewhat entranced. Wang Chen was really too handsome. Every gesture exuded masculine charm, and the hormones were simply overwhelming, with the pleasant scent emanating from Wang Chen filling her nostrils. She had seen online that when one encounters someone they like, they feel that the other person smells incredibly good. Does she really like Wang Chen? She doesn’t know, only that she really wants to be close to Wang Chen, and her mind is filled with some inappropriate images. Chao Lian, what are you daydreaming about? He Chao Cheong nudged her shoulder, glancing at her expression, trying not to laugh. Thud. He Chao Lian suddenly snapped back to reality, the black chip at her fingertips falling onto the gambling table. She hurried to pick it up. When she looked up, she collided with Wang Chen’s half-smiling gaze. I I wasn’t daydreaming. He Chao Lian’s ears turned hot and she hurriedly placed the chip in the bedding area. Wang Chen chuckled. Softly, taking her hand and placing it on his thigh. Although they had held hands before, He Chao Lian couldn’t help but blush in front of so many people. He Chao Cheong leaned in close to her ear and laughed, your face is so red it’s almost at your ears, and you still say you weren’t daydreaming? I wasn’t. He Chao Lian pretended to be nonchalant as she spoke. He Chao Cheong, holding a champagne glass, glanced at Wang Chen’s palm resting on He Chao Lian’s hand and suddenly laughed lightly. Chao Lian’s ears are as red as ripe cherries, is Wang Xiao’s hand really that hot? Then she looked at Wang Chen and said, but are he family’s girls, once they hold hands, they have to take responsibility. Upon hearing this, he Chao Lian stiffened. Her entire upper body turning red, even her fingertips felt hot. She glanced at Wang Chen, somewhat hoping to hear what he would say, but also fearing he might refuse. She wanted to pull her hand back, but Wang Chen gently pressed it down. He, Chao Xian was staring wide-eyed at their intertwined hands, her eyelashes fluttering, the chips in her hand making a clicking sound. Her heart instantly leaped to her throat. Wang Chen’s fingertips gently stroked He Chaolien’s small hand as he laughed. Heartily, I also really like Miss Chaolien, but I don’t know what she means to me. I do. He Chaolien quickly replied, her eyes filled with surprise. Then she patted her forehead, feeling a bit regretful. Was this too easy? Had she just opened her heart to Wang Chen so simply? Would he think she was too casual? But she was still very happy. Wang Chen had said he liked her. Her heart was filled with sweetness. However, looking into Wang Chen’s sincere eyes, all her worries were cast. Aside, her hand held tightly by him, their fingers intertwined. She murmured to herself, this is what love feels like, it turns out loving someone is so joyful. Instantly, her gaze towards Wang Chen was filled with affection. He Chao Xien’s eyes. Widen as she watched Wang Chen and He Chao Lien show off their affection right in front of her, her heart feeling cold. Tears welled up in He Chao Xien’s eyes, like a child whose beloved toy had been snatched away. She slammed her chips onto the gambling table, fuming. They are too much. Showing off their love right in front of me. She angrily turned around, her hair flipping high, but in the moment she turned, she secretly wiped her eyes. He Yujun sighed at the sight. He patted He Chao, Xan’s shoulder, comforting her, alright, if you keep making a scene, it won’t be pretty. Wang Chen noticed He Chao Xan’s reaction from the corner of his eye and could only sigh. Although He Chao Xan couldn’t compare to her sister He Chao Lian, she was still a great beauty and a year younger than him. Since they met, she had always been around him. How could he not know what He Chao Xan meant? But with that most beautiful heiress in the world right in front of him, choosing He Chao Exian was something he simply couldn’t do. Moreover, He Chao Exian’s identity was special, the He family was a prestigious family, and if he chose both, who knows how old master he would deal with him. He didn’t care much, but what if old master he got angry and something happened? He Chao Lian and He Chao Exian would surely hate him. He could only helplessly give up. The people around them saw Wang Chan and He Chao Lian flirting and couldn’t help but curse inwardly. Truly, the rich end up together, people. without money could only watch. How could someone as beautiful as He Chaolian, the daughter of the He family, be plucked like a flower by a man? They didn’t know Wang Chen’s identity, but they could be sure that he was also a young master, and his family’s background couldn’t be worse than the He family’s, otherwise, He Chaochong wouldn’t have come here in person. With this speculation, they dared not entertain any thoughts, only able to look at Wang Chen with jealousy. This was Macau. After all. If an ordinary person were to pursue Yi Chaolian, the wealthy second generation here would not hold back and wouldn’t mind tossing another body into the sea to feed the fish. The people around occasionally glanced at Wang Chen, each with their own hidden agendas and various thoughts. Wang Chen couldn’t help but marvel at Yi Chaolian’s charm. He pretended not to see and placed his hand on her long legs, feeling that unique softness, which made Yi Chaolian even more bashful. Yet, she did not refuse. This scene nearly broke countless people, their eyes blazing with fury, their back teeth almost grinding to dust. This kid must be doing it on purpose. Not only did he get He Chao Lian, but he was also flaunting it in front of them. This was nothing short of a blatant provocation. The bodyguards noticed the situation was turning sour, staring intently at the suspicious individuals, ready to act at any moment. Those who harbored hostility towards Wang Chen instantly reacted. The Xinpujin casino was the He family’s territory, it wasn’t a place they could act recklessly. He Chao Lian saw Wang Chen looking like a victorious general, the corners of his mouth lifting, making him even more handsome. She couldn’t help but roll. Her eyes. Is a man’s competitive spirit really that strong? How childish. But this sight of Wang Chen was quite adorable. The next round began with betting. Wang Chen had no research on betting in Baccarat, still betting on the banker to win. Most people at the table looked tense, hesitating with their chips, unsure of where to place their bets. At this point, it was no longer simple gambling but a psychological game. Perhaps praying to God or Buddha was more useful than calculating the probabilities of the banker and player. There were a total of 12 chairs at the table, three of which were already empty. The surrounding area was packed with people, but no one dared to sit down and continue betting, they all looked like they were there to watch a show, wondering how long this dragon would last. After placing his bets, Wang Chen casually surveyed the crowd, the myriad of human expressions laid out before him. Suddenly, Wang Chen’s gaze sharpened. His hand, which was, stroking each aliens, froze for a moment. He saw an elderly man emerge from the crowd, his left leg seemingly injured, making him a cripple. He tossed three golden chips in his hand and sat down in an empty seat, dressed in a black silk short coat. Though his face was somewhat aged, his eyes were half covered yet shone brightly. A young man in his twenties respectfully served the old man, holding a purple clay teapot, steam still rising from the spout, and Wang Chen could faintly smell the aroma of tea. The more Wang Chen looked at this old man, the more he felt he was extraordinary. There was an ethereal aura about him, unlike an ordinary person. After sitting down, the old man’s wrinkled fingers lightly tapped the table, the three chips. arranged neatly in a row, glimmering under the casino lights. Since sitting down, the old man’s gaze had not left Wang Chen. The young man behind him stood quietly, holding the purple clay teapot. His clothes looked like they cost only a hundred bucks. Not adorned like the people around him, standing out awkwardly in the crowd, yet he stood tall like a pine, with clear features and a calm demeanor as if he were leisurely sitting in his own courtyard. The dealer did not rush to deal the cards. Waiting for the old man’s bet. The old man’s bony fingers stroked his sparse goatee, his eyes carefully sizing up Wang Chen, measuring him from head to toe. Young friend, your face is not simple, you are not an ordinary person. The old man finally spoke, his voice horse yet clear, carrying a weight that seemed to have been shaped by the passage of time. Wang Chen noticed him taking the initiative to talk and said, who among us doesn’t have a bit of background? That’s quite a statement. You are different from them, the old man said, his eyes filled with surprise as he remarked, the purple aura faintly visible on your forehead, your eyes sharp and concealed. With brilliance, your fate carries great wealth and fortune, you are a person of great opportunity. I’ve calculated many things in this world but it’s the first time I’ve encountered someone I can’t see through. Valuable. Inexpressibly valuable. Wang Chen’s pupils constricted, a sense of alertness flooding his mind. My name is Wang Chen, and, you are? Those who know me call me Qin Shiizi, you can call me whatever you like, but it’s just a name, Qin Shiizi said as he picked up a purple clay teapot and took a sip of tea. The young man behind him looked at Wang Chen with curiosity, ignoring the gazes from everyone else, and simply offered Wang Chen a friendly smile. Wang Chen nodded at the strange old man, his brow slightly furrowed. To clarify their true identities, he directly activated his true eye and looked at them. Soon, detailed data about the two appeared. Before his eyes. Name, Xin Xiezi slash Xin Da Long age, 69 height, 166 cm charm, 50 physique, 110 favorability, 85 skills, Xiao Lu Ren, cannot be viewed, Zi Wei divination. cannot be viewed, Ximen Dunjia cannot be viewed. Wang Qin was taken aback. Since obtaining the true eye, this was the first time he encountered skills that he couldn’t discern the level of. Moreover, the physique had surpassed human limits, reaching 110 points. No wonder he felt something was off since the old man arrived. Could this Qin Xiezi be the legendary eccentric of the martial world? Skills like Xiao Lu Ren, Zi Wei Divination, and Ximen Dunjia, which are Taoist fortune-telling techniques, are already difficult to elevate to a high level. The difficulty far exceeds that of ordinary skills. Not to mention, it wasn’t just high level. He initially thought the true eye. Could see the essence of all things in the world, but it seemed there were still limitations, some things remained inscrutable. He then looked again at the young man standing. Behind him, name, Wenrin Shangru age, 21 height, 180 cm charm, 92 physique, 90 favorability, 65 skills, Ziwei divination, advanced, Shaoluren, intermediate. Could these two be master and disciple? Seeing Wenrin Shangru age skill set, Wang Chen speculated silently. Judging by his respectful attitude towards Chen Xiezi, it was most likely correct. This was the first time Wang Chen encountered such extraordinary individuals and he didn’t dare to be negligent. Raising an eyebrow, he tentatively asked. You just said you’re not an ordinary person and mentioned the purple aura on my forehead? Are you a fortune teller? Just a bit of family skill, nothing worth mentioning. Chen Xiezi waved his hand, chuckling, this is my disciple, Wenrin Xiangrui. Hello, brother Wang, Wenrin Xiangrui smiled at Wang Chen upon hearing. This. Wang Chen nodded back at him. Chen Xiezi leisurely lifted the purple clay teapot handed to him by the young man and took a sip the fragrance of the tea wafting through the air. With a smile in his eyes, his laughter carried an air of profound mystery. My young disciple and I traveled here and calculated that the Yi family’s fortune is declining, so we wanted to come in and ask for some money to spend. To think there exists such a person with great fortune like you in this world, it seems this old man has misjudged. What? He Chaocheong and He Yu Jun immediately felt a surge of anger upon hearing this. He Yujun even cursed, talking nonsense, daring to speak recklessly on my He family’s territory, truly unaware of your own mortality. He Chao Lian and He Chao XIN looked at the master and disciple with unfriendly gazes. He Yujun wanted to have the bodyguards throw them out of the casino to avoid their nonsense ruining the mood. Shut up. Wang Chen reached out to stop He Yujun from speaking again.He opened his mouth. To explain, Chen the cripple is not an ordinary person, listen to what he has to say. He Yujun clenched his fingers, but since Wang Chen had already. spoken, he couldn’t lose his temper. Chen the cripple paid no mind. He picked up the three golden chips on the table and casually tossed them aside, glancing at them before calculating in his hand. No, no, he murmured to himself, then looked at Wang Chen and said, three days ago, I calculated. But now the fortune of the Yi family has reversed, presenting an unprecedented scene. That’s why it has something to do with you. Playing. Tricks, who knows where he learned about young master Wang’s identity, acting like a deity here. He Yujun muttered to himself. Graduating from A. Prestigious university, he didn’t believe the old man’s mystical talk about fortune. The materialistic education he had received over the years made him, completely disbelieve in such things existing in the world. He Zhaoqiang, however, put away the disdain in his eyes and respectfully asked, Mr. Chen, is what you said true? Oomph, mere mortals. The abilities of my master are not something you can question. Peering into the heavens, discerning. Good and bad fortune, there is nothing my master cannot predict. Wenrun Xiangrui scoffed disdainfully. But his gaze towards Wang Chen was filled with curiosity. This was the first time his master had encountered someone he couldn’t predict. He secretly used Ziwei divination to see Wang Chen’s fate. But nothing came out and the heavenly secrets were completely blurred. Instantly, his gaze towards Wang Chen was filled with awe. Then he hesitated. For a moment and added, except for Wang Chen. He Zhao Xiong was not bothered by Wonren Shangrui’s mockery. Instead, she was quite delighted. knew that there were some extraordinary people in this world and before opening a casino, they would seek out feng shui masters to design the layout. She had always held such people in high regard. Her father had also told her to treat such extraordinary individuals with respect and never provoke them. Otherwise, one wouldn’t even know how they died. Since he said that the fortune of the Yi family had reversed because of Wang Chen, it must be true. Her father would surely be very pleased if he knew. Is it true? We can just try it and see. Chen the cripple chuckled and directly placed. The three golden chips in the dealer’s position. I say this time the dragon will come out as the dealer for 49 consecutive times. Do you believe it or not? Since you say so, we naturally believe it. He Zhao Xiong quickly replied respectfully. As soon as Chen the cripple’s words fell, the casino erupted. Damn, is this guy not crazy? Does he even know what 49 consecutive dealers means? This cripple must have drunk too much. Some of the He family actually believe him. What era is this, still believing in such metaphysics? Many people showed disdain, mocking him. They didn’t believe a word Chen the cripple said. The dealer also cast a disdainful glance at him, knowing that the current 36th round hadn’t even started yet, anything could happen in each round. How dare he say that? Wasn’t he afraid of being slapped in the face later? He Zhao Lian also leaned closer to Wang Chen, blinking her big eyes, curiously asking, Brother Wang Chen, they’re not just fooling people, are they? No, this is encountering a real semi-immortal. Wang Chen looked at He Zhao Lian with certainty. He hadn’t expected such figures existed in the world, the emergence of ancient martial arts was one thing, but this was beyond his expectations. Now, with skills that the true eye couldn’t detect, Chen the cripple was very likely a Taoist immortal like Zhuge Liang or Yuan Tian Gang from legends. He knew Chen the cripple was profound and unfathomable. He had truly encountered a master, and the prophecy of the dragon being the dealer for 49 times must be true. He didn’t care about any of this. He just wanted to finish quickly so he could chat with him for a few moments. He jowly and nodded her pretty little face, still looking at Chen the cripple in one run Shangrui with some disbelief. Such an outrageous claim was not surprising for her to doubt, who still believes in such mysterious things. Among modern young people, it’s already a blessing not to mock him. After the bets were placed, the dealer began to deal the cards again. The outcome was beyond Wang Chan’s expectations, the banker still had a higher point total, and the banker continued the winning streak. In the 37th round, the banker won. In the 38th round, the banker won. In the 41st round, the banker won. In the 43rd round, the banker won. Cold sweat began to beat on the foreheads of countless people on sight, their gazes towards Chinchese filled with awe. They had previously doubted his claim of a winning streak lasting 49 rounds, but now they couldn’t help but waver. Some clever individuals took out their chips and directly placed bets on the banker again. They were not disappointed. The following rounds also resulted in banker wins. In the 49th round, the banker won again. After that, Chen Kezi, Wang Chen, and others began to bet on the player winning without a moment’s hesitation. They ended up winning again. The venue fell silent. After a while, cheers erupted. Many people followed suit, betting and winning substantial amounts of money flocking towards Chen Kezi. This person truly had skills. If they could receive his guidance, their careers would surely soar. He Chaocheong. Seeing this situation, instructed manager Liang to take the bodyguards and the casino security to clear the area. Soon, the riffraff on the first. Floor of Xinpujin were cleared out, leaving only Chen Kezi, Wang Chen, and their group. The cheers in the venue receded like a tide, and Chen Kezi leaned back in the ornate gambling chair, his murky eyes seemingly veiled in a thin mist but suddenly shining as they swept over the pile of chips on the table. Xiangrui, collect this money. Chen Kezi held a purple clay teapot in one hand, sipping tea. Just as one run Xiangrui was about to clear the chips from the table, He Chaochong spoke up, little master, there’s no need to trouble yourself. Please provide an account number, and I’ll have. Someone transfer the money directly to your account. All right, all right, then I’ll trouble miss he. Chen KZ wore a smile on his face. After Wen Run, Xiangru Wei provided the account number to the staff. It wasn’t long before he received a bank notification sound. He looked at the long string of zeros in his bank account and nearly burst into tears. It had been so long since he had this much money. Ever since he became a disciple, he hadn’t had more than 10,000 yuan on him. When he went out with his master, he wasn’t even allowed to ask his family for money, living on nigger rations. It was truly difficult. For someone like him, who had once lived a life of luxury, the days after becoming a disciple were nothing short of a trial. When he first entered the sect, he casually threw away half a pastry he had left over into the trash, only to be slapped on the back of the head by his master, who warned him to cherish food. Since then, he had followed his master, sleeping outdoors, living in dilapidated temples, gnawing on cold buns, and even walking through waist-deep river water in a downpour to save on ferry fees, only after coming to Macau, where he could eat and dress. Decently, did he dare to think about what kind of life he had lived before. He wished he could find a restaurant right now and have a hearty meal. Wen Run Shangrui couldn’t help but swallow hard. Leave 100,000, and donate the rest. Before he could continue his daydreaming, Chen Kaze’s. Sudden voice came from behind, and the joyful expression on his face instantly froze. Wen Run Shangrui didn’t need to look to know what Chen Kaze was thinking. Yes, master. Wen Run Shangrui said with a mournful face. Chen Kaze chuckled and looked at Wang Chen, saying, My young friend, now. That everything is settled, Xiangrui and I will take our leave. Until we meet again. Are you in such a hurry? Why not stay with me at the MGM hotel? For a night? I still have some questions to ask you. Wang Chen quickly said upon hearing this. Yes, Mr. Chen, why not rest here tonight? I appreciate. The kindness, but Xiangrui and I have matters to attend to, so we must take our leave. He Chaocheong was quite anxious. He Chen Casey had predicted. The 49 rounds of winning streak, proving that he was not someone who relied on tricks to deceive others, but rather a truly skilled individual. Even if such a person couldn’t be won over, leaving a good impression was still worthwhile.He Yu Jun, He Xiaoshin, and He Xiaolian had not yet recovered from their shock. The three exchanged glances, their minds spinning, but all they could hear in their heads was the voice of the dragon of the 49 Bureau. Chen Kezi had actually predicted this outcome. He wasn’t lying. Was this still the real world? He Yu Jun felt as if the materialist. worldview he had held onto for so long had collapsed, and he couldn’t bear to imagine the result he had just witnessed. Yet, alongside that, there was a deep sense of anticipation. This anticipation was soon voiced by Wang Chen. Chen Kezi, I see your abilities now. Shang Rui said it well. You truly have the genuine skill to glimpse the heavenly secrets and discern fortune and misfortune, but I want to ask, are there really immortals in this world? Are you one of those legendary cultivators? Wang Chen, hearing that Chen Kezi was about to leave, did not press him but instead voiced, The question he had always had. Logically, he had a system that had even transported him to this parallel world and the power of the system was self-evident. Even if there were indeed immortals in the world, it wouldn’t be surprising. But he still wanted to hear Chen Kezi say it himself. As soon as Wang Chen finished speaking, Wen-run Shangrui burst into laughter. With a smile on his face, he said, where in the world are there cultivators? Wang Chen, you must have read too many novels. Ha ha ha. The look of anticipation on Wang Chen’s face instantly darkened. He Yujun also looked. Disappointedly at one Ron Shangrui whose smile had become crooked. Damn. He thought he had encountered a real immortal. He was even considering that. If Chen Kezi were truly a cultivator he would have to beg him to be his master, even if it meant clinging desperately to him. Not to mention flying. With a sword, just refining a human emperor banner would be great. Truly, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. He Yajun’s face. Fell instantly, and he let out a heavy sigh. Chen Kezi gave Wang Chen a meaningful glance and slowly said, your thoughts are quite imaginative. But unfortunately, I’m just a cripple. We’ll meet again if fate allows. He shook his head and walked outside. Seeing Chen Kezi about to leave, Wang Chen quickly pulled one Ren Shangrui and added him on Feixin. When Ren Shangrui took out his phone, added Wang Chen on Feixin, and then looked at his. Departing master, master, wait for me. Wang Chen, I’ll definitely come to find you after I leave. He turned to shout at Wang Chen before turning. To leave. For someone like Wang Chen, who carried great fortune, his fate was unpredictable, and for someone who studied destiny, it was truly fascinating. If it weren’t for his master leaving, he would have wanted to stay here for a while. He Xiaoshin looked at the two figures walking away and asked in confusion, isn’t he a cripple? How can he walk so fast? Wang Chen, He Xiaolian, and He Yujun quickly looked over. Damn, and he says he’s not a cultivator, isn’t this just shrinking the distance? He Yujun scratched his head, this old man is quite the deceiver, Wang Chen didn’t know. The truth of what Chen Kezi said, but the eye of truth wouldn’t lie. With his 110 points in physique, he couldn’t possibly be a cultivator. Otherwise, that would be too ridiculous. He asked just to get an answer, although he felt a bit disappointed, it was still within reason. Chen Kezi, limping, on one leg, could still walk this fast, with Wang Chen’s keen eyesight, he could tell it had nothing to do with shrinking distance. Anyway, now that he had added one rune Shangrui on Feixin, they could meet again in the future. There was no rush. After a while, the casino resumed operations. The first floor hall was packed with people, bustling and crowded, all excitedly discussing the events of the night. The happenings of that evening, passed from mouth to mouth, became increasingly outrageous, and what was already mysterious became even more perplexing. Some said a deity had come, to the Nupu Jean, able to accurately predict future events, making over a hundred billion in one night. Others heard that a true gambling god had, arrived at the Nupu Jean casino, winning every bet, and that Nupu Jean couldn’t afford the losses and had kicked everyone out. The rumors grew more and, more absurd. Soon, it spread throughout the circles of Macau’s top elites. Countless wealthy individuals sprang into action upon hearing the news, eager to find the mysterious cripple to have their fortunes told. However, Chen the cripple and Wen Ring Shangrui seemed to have vanished from Macau in an instant. No matter how hard they searched, it was all in vain. It was now nearing 11 o’clock. He Chao Lian linked her arm with Wang Chen’s. As they got into a Rolls Royce ghost, a long convoy followed behind, creating quite a spectacle. They already had a large entourage, and with the Additional people brought by He Chaocheon, they nearly blocked the roads of Macau. Soon, the car arrived at the MGM Grand 5-Star Resort Hotel. This hotel is located near the seaside, adjacent to the Macau Sports Arena, facing south towards Taipa, west by the One Lake, and north by Win Macau. The hotel stands at a height of 154 meters, comprising 35 floors, with an exterior made up of three sets of stacked floors. The outer layer is paved with three different colors of glass. At the entrance stands a 10-meter-tall golden lion bronze statue, crafted by a renowned domestic master, its lifelike form guarding the place as if it were a real lion. As the car approached, the luxurious scene was fully revealed. He honkshin, at over 90 years old and having just been discharged from the hospital, had gone to bed early. While he was sound asleep, he was awakened by three concubines. He opened his heavy eyelids and grumbled, what are you doing awake at this hour? Master, wake up, there’s been an incident, a huge incident. The third concubine’s face was flushed with excitement. Normally, she would have been asleep by now, but she had been anxious. About her daughter He Chaolian and Wang Chen’s relationship, even sending someone to the casino to report back to her at all times. News of Chen. The cripple’s 49 predictions of the dragon and the decline of the He family’s fortune had reached her phone. The fourth and second concubines. Helped He Hongchen sit up after he woke. They chattered excitedly at him. The old man rubbed his eyes, struggling to bring his chaotic mind back to. Normal. He frowned and looked at them, displeased, saying, what’s all this noise about? What’s such a big deal? Master, let me tell you, because. That cripple caused losses at the casino tonight. The concubines detailed the events that had transpired at the casino that night. He Hongchen sipped. The tea brought by the fourth concubine and finally understood what had happened. He let out a hearty laugh, clearly delighted, I said Wongchen is. Are he family’s lucky star? Good, good, good. A little loss isn’t anything, consider it doing good deeds. He Hongchen was very happy, as a heavy. stone that had long weighed on his heart finally fell. It is indeed difficult for a family to remain prosperous and not decline over generations. Especially since the He family’s foundation isn’t that deep in the business world, even if the opponent is large and has a high market value, the He family, which operates a casino, need not fear them. As long as national policies remain unchanged, he had no worries. However, the He family had no allies within the system. Current allies do not guarantee they will remain so after his death and they might turn around and devour the He family’s delicious cake. This was not impossible, rather, it was highly likely. Chen the cripple’s prophecy of the Yi family’s decline foreshadowed their future. His accurate predictions about the gambling situation also proved he was not a charlatan. Therefore, his later statement that Wang Chen’s fortune had changed for the better was indeed true. The Yi family would not decline in the future. Initially, he had invited Wang Chen to his birthday banquet, even introducing his most precious daughter to him despite knowing Wang Chen had several women, all in hopes of climbing aboard the Wang family’s giant ship. Now it seemed that this was indeed another correct decision made in his life. Wang Chen cannot be let go as a son-in-law, even if it means. Making his two daughters sit small, he cannot allow this golden turtle son-in-law to escape. Otherwise, even if he were to endure eternal reincarnation, he would never swallow this anger. He Hong Chen, in a good mood, felt much more comfortable in his body and looked at several concubines, saying. As the mothers of the children, you should give Zhao Lian and Zhao Xian some advice. Young people don’t understand some things, but you must know. I’m determined to have Wang Chen as my son-in-law. He haunched and gave a meaningful glance at the third concubine. Then he waved his hand. At them, saying, alright, all of you go out. It’s late, and you should be sleeping. The three concubines, wanting the old master to. Rest well, could only exit despite their excitement. Only the third concubine pondered over the old master’s gaze towards her, secretly. Contemplating. There are two MGM hotels in Macau, oath under He Chaocheon’s name. They arrived at the MGM Kotai. At this moment, the. Exterior wall of the MGM hotel was flashing with dazzling lights from hundreds of thousands of LED bulbs. Usually, only the MGM golden. Lion logo would slowly pass over the entire building, cycling year after year, but now the flashing lights were occupied by a line of constantly changing text. Wang Chen’s gaze was drawn to it. He saw it read, Welcome, Young Master Wang, to MGM. Young Master Wang is the most handsome. Welcome the world’s number one handsome to MGM Resort Hotel. Young Master Wang, the universe’s number one male. God, and other welcoming phrases for Wang Chen. Amidst the flashing text, a golden lion hundreds of meters tall followed behind the lights flashing to an extreme shock. Many tourists outside stopped to watch, pointing at the text above. Who is this young master Wang? This is an unprecedented welcome at MGM. Yeah, it’s really outrageous. I want to see just how handsome this young master Wang is. Wang Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed. A welcome was one thing, but why so ostentatious? It was simply social death. He covered his face with one hand and rubbed it, then looked at He Chaocheon beside him and asked, did you arrange this? Surprise! Isn’t it a pleasant surprise? He Chaocheon’s eyes were full of cunning. He Chaocheon tilted her chin, her eyelashes fluttering with pride. The welcome speech was my idea, I specifically didn’t use your real name to avoid people finding out. You’re really thoughtful. Of course. He Chaocheon proudly placed her hands on her hips, her expression full of satisfaction. He Yujun felt helpless towards his sister. They had the same mother, how could she be so brainless? he really couldn’t understand. He could only secretly pray that Wang Chen and He Chaocheon’s relationship wouldn’t progress too quickly, so he could have a good talk with his sister tonight about how to pursue a man. Wang Chen rubbed his forehead inside helplessly. However, He Chaocheon leaned close to his ear and said, we even invited a star to perform today, you came at just the right time. He Chaocheon’s voice was pleasant, carrying a subtle fragrance that wasn’t overpowering, and the breath by his ear made Wang Chen’s heart skip a beat, just as he was about to ask which star it was, the car. stopped, and they had arrived at the entrance of the MGM hotel. Wang Chen could only dispel his curiosity. He and the others got out of the car one after another. Their row of vehicles had already attracted the attention of people outside, originally, due to the concert. Many had gathered outside, and even people from the casino had come out to look this way, speculating whether this was the young master Wang from the screen. At this moment, everyone was focused on this side, eager to see if the person getting out of the car was as handsome as claimed. The universe is number one handsome. Truly shameless. As Wang Chen and the others got out of the car, the scene instantly erupted in exclamations, and the crowd stirred. If it weren’t for the bodyguards closely protecting them, Wang Chen and the others would surely have been pushed forward by the excited crowd. My goodness. Is this the male lead who walked out of a comic? So, handsome. I should have put on full makeup before coming. It’s all your fault, Gimi. He’s even more handsome than my idol. Compared to him, my boyfriend is nothing. I declare this Wang Xiao as my new idol. Now that’s what you call nobility. That profile, that. Ora, I would believe he’s a European prince. A man in a suit took off his sunglasses, staring in disbelief. His own looks felt overshadowed. Even the money he prided himself on seemed insignificant in front of this man. He recognized He Chaocheong, who was following Wang. Chun. With the arrival of He Chaocheong, the owner of the MGM hotel and the famous gambling queen of Macau, the atmosphere at the scene, reached a climax. Laughter and cheers erupted among the onlookers, with several influencers holding their phones to livestream pushing. To the front row, family, look. This is Wang Xiao from the big screen. Is this the legendary young master from a wealthy family? Mom, help. I’m in love. The gambling queen herself is even more stunning than the cover of a financial magazine. She must have been. Beautiful when she was young. I can’t take it anymore. Wang Xiao just leaned down to talk to the beauty next to him. That gaze was. So gentle. I declare I’m shipping this couple. Main cameraman, stop filming Wang Xiao, we wanna see the beauty. Turn the camera. Around. Oh my gosh, how did Wang Chen end up in Macau? He’s with He Chaolian and He Chaoxin. Is Wang Chen the name of Wang Xiao? What? A nice name. A fan recognized Wang Chen, and the beautiful host asked in confusion, is this handsome guy called Wang Chen? You guys. Aren’t just making this up, are you? At that moment, the livestream chat was scrolling even faster, with more people recognizing Wang. Chen, you’re still a host? What a joke, you don’t even know Wang Chen, get your facts straight. I won’t allow you to talk about my M.O. M.O. like that. Just because you don’t know him, doesn’t mean you can act all high and mighty. After being educated by netizens, the main cameraman finally realized how popular Wang Chen was in the mainland. This is the cage of information. Even though Wang Chen was already famous in Hua Gua, here he was still just an unknown person. Under the protection of bodyguards, Wang Chen and the others quickly made their way to the front row of the concert. They took their seats one after another. The remaining bodyguards sat behind Wang, Chen and the others to avoid blocking the view of those behind them. To prevent any dangerous individuals from mingling in the crowd, He Chaocheong even arranged for people on the rooftops nearby to monitor the entire scene at all times. If an ordinary rich person came to such a crowded place, even with many bodyguards for protection, it would still feel a bit on edge, especially if a big star was performing, their thoughts would likely be focused on their own safety. But Wang Chen had no such worries. He had already dealt with those. who offended him, and he trusted the He family’s security. Not to mention, he had a whole list of advantages. As a martial arts master, he possessed an extraordinary perception as a warrior, allowing him to vaguely sense the malice in people’s hearts. He was also immune to firearms, so there was even less to worry about. Even if he were injured, as long as it wasn’t a fatal blow, the rapid healing ability would ensure his safety. However, Wang Chen’s physical condition was something He Chaochong and the others were unaware of. For Wang. Chen’s safety, they could only ensure the utmost security, especially since he was a distinguished guest of the Yi family. Now that he, Chalian had developed feelings for Wang Chen, she was naturally very concerned about his safety. Old master He Hong had pinned all. His hopes on Wang Chen, the safety of the Yi family rested solely on him. If anything happened to Wang Chen on his turf, it would be a huge embarrassment. After sitting down, Wang Chen naturally wrapped his arm around Yi Chalian’s soft waist, and she leaned slightly. Against him, the sound of Wang Chen’s powerful heartbeat filled her ears. He Chao xin could only watch, her eyes filled with resentment. Looking pitiful. Unable to withstand her gaze, Wang Chen turned to He Chao Lian in his arms and asked, you brought that star over at? This late hour? I won’t tell you, guess for yourself, He Chao Lian said playfully, snuggling into Wang Chen’s embrace, her head resting. On his shoulder. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen’s mind raced to a name, and he tentatively said, Xia Tingfong? Correct. He Chao. Lian giggled, it’s Xia Tingfong, he’s coming up soon. The lights on the stage lit up, flickering all around. massive holographic screen. The audience who had bought tickets gradually took their seats, excitedly looking towards the front where Wang Chen and He Chao Chong were. They discussed which family Wang Chen belonged to. Normally, concerts were held here, but never this. Late, and with Wang Chen accompanied by He Chao Chong plus the two daughters of the gambling king He Hongshan, He Chao Lian and He Chao. XIN, it was quite the gathering. Seeing He Chao Lian nestled against Wang Chen, their relationship was clearly not simple. News spread. Quickly in the area. Countless media rushed here, believing that tomorrow the streets of Macau would be buzzing with this news. It’s just a bit late, so we could only invite Xia Tingfong to perform, he Chao Cheong said with some regret. She had originally wanted to invite Deng Zichi, but unfortunately, his schedule couldn’t accommodate it, and he simply couldn’t make it. Since it was a last-minute decision, getting Xia Tingfong was already quite good. Many stars were busy with work, some filming, others holding concerts. Only Xia. Ting Fong happened to be vacationing in Macau, and it was Yi Chao Chong who personally called him to come, otherwise, it would be hard to get him. Suddenly, the fog machines on both sides of the stage erupted with white mist, rolling over the audience like a surging sea of clouds. The laser lights above suddenly focused, cutting through the mist to create countless silver beams of light, which finally converged into a rotating pillar of light at the center of the stage. Xia Ting Fong, wearing black leather gloves and a slightly unbuttoned White shirt rose slowly on the lift, his bare arms glistening, and his silver pants reflecting fragmented light under the stage. Lights. Ah ah ah. It’s Xia Ting Phong. So handsome. The front row audience erupted in screams, quickly pulling out their phones to take. Pictures of Xia Ting Phong. In the distance, a young couple sat upright, the girl clutching the man’s arm. He’s coming. He’s coming. It’s actually Xia Ting Phong. The background screen displayed stunning special effects. The billion-dollar sound system began to blast. Rock music and the atmosphere was electrifying. Xia Tingfong held a guitar and played. Young enough to meet anyone, just as crisp as. A wafer. Living for half a day feels like living a million years. Nothing can be as crisp as youth. Living each day makes you a. Year older. Ah ah ah ah ah. On stage, Xia Tingfong held his guitar, singing a high energy song, Alive, in Cantonese, and Wang. Chen couldn’t help but feel excited by the atmosphere. This is what a man should be. This is the spirit a star should have. The older. Generation of singers is still the best, their songs are good, and they sing beautifully, unlike some singers who act all mysterious, making you think they’re casting spells on stage. Singing is simply life-threatening, perhaps influenced by thoughts from a past life. The 20-year-old Wang Chen really couldn’t stand those songs. The audience spontaneously began to sing along, swinging gently to the rhythm, the sound waves nearly overturning the MGM’s dome. He Yujun, He Chao Lian, and the others sang loudly in Cantonese, and Wang. Chen, infected by this energy, couldn’t help but join in, swaying his body to the music. Friends in the audience, let’s get hyped. Xia. Tingfong urged, trying to stir the atmosphere. Ah ah ah, so good. The fans’ reactions did not disappoint him, responding excitedly. Just like caffeine kicking in. Eyes closed, forgot to blink. Like a stone floating in mid-air, weightless. The sound waves in light. On stage intertwined to create a boiling ocean. The atmosphere at the venue grew increasingly fervent. Xia Tingfong suddenly knelt on one. Nee, the guitar strings exploding like wild horses breaking free. After finishing the song, he shouted again, Tonight, I am honored to be invited to perform at MGM. If I don’t sing well, please forgive me. As soon as Xia Tingfeng finished speaking, the audience erupted into enthusiastic applause. The crowd was shouting loudly, their emotions running high. Next, I will bring you a song, Jade, Butterfly, and I hope you all enjoy it. As soon as Xia Tingfeng’s words fell, the stage lights instantly focused on him, and he embraced his guitar to sing again. The audience below had not yet recovered from their nostalgia for first love, and he continued to perform several songs, including, Can’t Walk Away, and, Because of Love. Xia Tingfong truly deserved to be the best singer among chefs, his talent was undeniable. After finishing a song, the passionate rock music seemed to still swirl above MGM. Holding his guitar, Xia Tingfong breathed slightly, his face a mix of satisfaction and fatigue, waving to the audience as he stepped down from the stage. The audience. remained immersed in the recent melodies, cheers and applause ringing in their ears, with some shouting loudly, Encore! Encore! Siya! Tingfong maintained a smile as he walked towards the backstage. Meanwhile, the stage lights changed again, becoming even more dazzling. A group of beautifully dressed women streamed onto the stage, each tall and striking, their long legs in black stockings particularly, eye-catching under the lights. The music suddenly blared, with a strong and dynamic rhythm, and the women began to dance freely to the music. Their movements were synchronized filled with power and allure, twisting their waists in unison one moment and kicking their legs. High the next, pushing the atmosphere to another climax. The audience below screamed excitedly, whistles echoing, while others continuously recorded the spectacular moments on their phones. Once backstage, Xia Tingfong adjusted his clothes and wiped the sweat from his face. He then walked towards Wang Chen. As soon as he appeared, he was spotted by sharp-eyed fans who waved and greeted him. Xia Tingfong jogged over, wearing a professional smile. After interacting with the audience he finally reached Wang Chen’s side, his gaze towards. Wang Chen filled with respect. He did not dare to be negligent and quickly extended his hand towards Wang Chen, saying, young master. Wang, thank you for coming to my performance. It is truly an honor for me. The performance was good, Wang Chen replied, shaking his hand with a smile. This was actually his first concert and it was Xia Tingfeng’s, making it worthwhile. Xia Tingfeng held Wang Chen’s. Han tightly, leaning slightly forward, his tone filled with excitement and gratitude, with your words, young master Wang, this concert. Tonight is worth it. He was well aware of the power of the person before him, a big-name singer in the entertainment industry. He knew. All about Wang Chan’s previous dealings with Chun Yongkai in Magic City and the matters concerning the illustrious media behind him. See yeah. Ting Fong was fully aware of this and had some guesses about Wang Chan’s identity. It was precisely because of this that he agreed to hold. A concert late at night. After all, the second generation rich like Wang Sikong and Qin Fen subtly centered around Wang Chen, which spoke volumes about his terrifying background. Moreover, the He family in Macau was also connected to Wang Chen. He Zhao Cheng personally called him to arrange the concert, and even the gambling king He Hongchen’s most beautiful daughter, He Zhao Lian, had an unusual relationship with Wang Chen. His status as a superstar was hardly worth mentioning in front of Wang Chen, which is why he maintained such a low profile. Even the flattering Wang Chen brought him no real benefits, he couldn’t afford to make Wang Chen feel negatively towards him. Xie Tingfeng kept his attitude extremely humble, greeting He Jiachong, He Yujun, and others in succession before heading towards the backstage. At that moment, a powerful electronic sound effect suddenly erupted on stage, the sound waves sweeping across the venue. Like a surging tide, the stage’s dome lights spun wildly, intertwining beams of purple, gold, and red, enveloping the beautiful women, dressed in sequined black stockings. The lead dancer, a tall woman in 10-centimeter stilettos, drew cheers from the crowd with a highly, tense back bend. Her long, dark hair nearly touched the ground, and the lights glinted off her sequined outfit, refracting tiny sparks. Of light. Suddenly, silver-cold flames erupted from both sides of the stage, sketching a rose-shape in Madère, and the dancer seized. The moment to pair up for a close and passionate dance. Some draped their partner’s long legs over their shoulders, while others executed. Difficult lifts, spinning their partners in Madère with a 360-degree rotation. The taut muscle lines beneath the black stockings, undulated with their movements, exuding a wild beauty. The front row audience waved glow sticks frantically, with some even standing on their chairs to whistle loudly. As the music reached the chorus, dynamic water ripple effects suddenly appeared on the central stage. Screen, and the dancers, barefoot, stepped on the virtual water surface, the splashes of light and real sweat glimmering together. The atmosphere in the venue reached a climax in an instant. Xie Tingfong took the guitar handed to him by the staff, took a deep breath, and walked back on stage. The next song is dedicated to every friend present tonight. Yellow People. Xia Ting Feng’s voice came through. The microphone on the lift platform and the circular platform in the center of the stage slowly raised him up, the spotlight above, suddenly transforming into a soft golden light that shone on him. He strummed the prelude to Yellow People, the vibrating hum of the strings mixing with the audience’s gasps, echoing like rolling thunder under the dome, from the waves that have crossed 5,000 miles to the walls yet to be rebuilt. The surrounding instrumental teachers swayed to the rhythm. Suddenly, the LED screen at the back of the stage unfurled a long ink wash scroll, vigorous calligraphy splattering with the beat. Xia Tingfong knelt on one knee, his left, hand sliding rapidly along the neck of the guitar while his right hand strummed with such force that the strings nearly snapped. The audience followed the rhythm, singing along, and the entire venue’s floor vibrated slightly. Xia Tingfong, living up to his reputation as a powerful singer, continued to perform over 20 songs without a pause. In his 30s, he was still at his peak, far from what he would be in his 40s. Thank you, Macau. Thank you, MGM. His voice, horse yet powerful, resonated, every chorus tonight, I will remember in my heart, until we meet again. Golden paper flowers rained down from the dome, shimmering like falling gold under the lights. As the concert concluded, the audience remained excited, beginning to leave. Wang Chan and a few others had already left the concert early under the protection of bodyguards. Xia Tingfong ran over from a distance, handing Wang Chen a business card, saying eagerly, This is my business card, I hope you will accept it, young master Wang. Wang Chen nodded slightly, accepted the card, and casually, tucked it into his pocket. After watching the concert, it was already midnight. The casinos were all quite similar, but here, majestic. Golden lions were everywhere, and the art exhibition was also impressive. After taking a tour inside the MGM Grand, Wang Chen, under, he Zhao Chon’s arrangement, checked into the young Hua mansion. This was not a place just anyone could enter, it required a certain number. Of points. In fact, many of the luxurious hotels in Macau’s casinos could be stayed in for free, provided certain conditions were. Met. This casino was also one of the ways to attract gamblers, with free drinks, pastries, and meals serving as a marketing strategy. Under Yi Zhaoqion’s personal guidance, Wang Xin headed towards the Yonghua mansion. Along the way, the Golden Lion sculptures stood. Majestically, some lying down, some standing, their gold paint shining under the lights, as if guarding this luxurious place. Stepping into the Yangua mansion, Wangshin felt as if he had instantly traveled to distant Morocco. The high saturation colors intertwined, fiery. Red, bright yellow, and deep blue colliding to create a visually striking scene. The typical North African arch, with its graceful and smooth lines, casts mysterious shadows under the light. The afternoon sun should have filtered through the palm trees, but now, even though it is midnight, the constant temperature and humidity created indoors make that imagined play of light and shadow seem right before one’s eyes. There are only 27 villas here, each a symbol of ultimate luxury. Yes, these villas are built hundreds of meters high, reportedly costing 3 billion. Young Master Wang, you should rest early. If you need anything, just let me know, He Chao Cheung said. To Wang Chen after introducing him to the villa and then turned to leave. He Chao Lian, He Yu Jun, and He Chao Cheung had already gone. To rest in the villa next door to Wang Chen. After closing the door, Wang Chen looked up. The first thing that caught his eye was the Spacious living room, where the tiled floor, crafted with intricate patterns, resembled ancient totems. It exuded elegance. Complimenting. It were the exquisite carved decorations on the walls, casting layered shadows under the light. In one corner of the room, the Mother of Pearl. Inlaid furniture radiated a warm blow. Upon closer inspection, the shell fragments sparkled with colorful brilliance under the light, harmonizing with the overall style of the interior. On one side of the living room, a temperature-controlled massage pool was. Emitting wisps of steam, the water surface shimmering under the light. Soft, fluffy towels and several uniquely shaped aromatherapy bottles were placed at the edge of the pool. Wang Chin even spotted a private KTV room equipped with top-notch sound systems. The coffee table was thoughtfully set with several plates of exquisite snacks, including nuts, dried fruits, and cute macarons paired with a bottle of expensive red wine. Nearby was a curious concubine chair, a meditation room, a spa room, a swimming pool, everything one could wish for. The luxury here far exceeds the imagination of an average person. When you check into this lavish mansion costing over a hundred thousand a night, you definitely won’t be thinking about why she hasn’t replied to your messages. You will only be immersed in the ultimate enjoyment that money brings. The room Wang Chen stayed in was the most special among the 27 villas, with a balcony connecting to a yard that had a private garden. The air was filled with the fragrance of flowers, extracted at a hundred percent purity. After experiencing quite a bit today, he casually glanced around the room before stripping off his clothes and heading to the bathroom. He sat in the warm water, leaning back against the edge of the pool, which was adorned with mosaic tiles, and suddenly noticed the starry sky projection on the ceiling. Countless light points simulated the Milky Way, flickering in and out of visibility and the steam. Wang Chen slowly closed his eyes, enjoying the comfort of the bath at the right temperature, but his mind couldn’t help but wander to the old man he met today. Ximen Dunjia, Ziwei Doshu, were these cultivated skills, or were they different from what he thought? Chen Xiezi saw that he was a person of great fortune and opportunity, but couldn’t see through his future. Wang Chen could somewhat understand the reason. Before his rebirth, he was just a lowly worker, since coming back with a system, his life had changed. He became the heir of a top family, with parents who were business tycoons, and their companies generated astronomical wealth daily, along with a grandfather who had retired from high positions. It seemed that his second uncle was also in a high position. Anyone who knew Wang Chen would surely recognize him as a person of great fortune and opportunity. If it weren’t for Wang Chen being able to see Chen Shizhi’s skills with his true eye, he might have treated him as a con artist. And during his time in Hong Kong, he encountered ancient martial arts masters Xianglong and Xianghu who possessed martial prowess far beyond ordinary understanding, yet still belonged to the realm of human comprehension. They were still flesh and blood, even they could die if shot. However, in the end, Xiang mentioned that ancient. Martial arts were not that simple and that there might be higher beings. The events of these past few days have indeed been thrilling. Ordinary people would never imagine that on the other side of the world, there exists a group of such individuals, they are a line, or. Perhaps they have an organization or a sect. The more Wang Chen thought about it, the more curious he became. He picked up the phone. Beside him, disregarding the late hour, and directly called Wang Jianguo. After a long wait, the other end finally connected. You little. Brat, why are you calling me so late and waking me up? You better have something important, or I won’t let you off. Wang Jianguo’s roar came through the phone. Wang Chin held the phone a bit farther away, waiting for Wang Jianguo’s anger to subside before he slowly spoke. Dad, how can you still sleep? I’ve almost died out here these past few days, and you haven’t even called to check on me. Am I still your son? A rustling sound came from the other end, as if Wang Jianguo was sitting up, grabbing his hair, and the glass on the bedside table clinked. Die? Do you think my intelligence network is useless? Wang Jianguo’s voice was thick with morning grumpiness as. He disdainfully said, if it weren’t for me, would you still be so carefree after being surrounded by those thugs in Hong Kong? And. Now you’re blaming me. So, how about that girl from the Yi family? You seem to like her quite a bit. Wang Jianguo’s tone suddenly. Became lively, I showed her photo to your mom, and she liked it a lot. If it weren’t so late, afraid of interrupting your young romance, she would have called you already. Upon hearing this, Wang Chen’s expression froze. He covered his face with his hand, listening to. Wang Jianguo’s rambling, and after a while, he finally said, you just found out I held her hand, and you already know? Your people are. Really dedicated. I’m really impressed. If it weren’t for the strict protection around you, do you think your grandfather would let you? Mess around in Hong Kong and Macau? Wang Jianguo laughed heartily, then his voice turned serious, don’t think about throwing tantrums. Like those rich second generation kids, to a certain extent, your safety is more important than mine. Hearing this, Wang Chen softly, responded and fell silent. He knew about his second uncle, all the children born in recent years were girls, and he had three quirky, little sisters. He was the only boy here. Naturally, he received more attention from his grandfather, as older folks tend to favor boys. A bit more. Wang Jianguo’s voice continued, your grandfather is very satisfied with your performance. A Wang family boy should have. This kind of blood and spirit, with this spirit, you won’t go wrong in whatever you do in the future. Wang Chen was naturally aware of. The training he had undergone. After hesitating for a moment, he still asked, what do you think about the Xiang and Zhang families? I think the Xiang family is outstanding in the gang aspect, while the Zhang family is doing well in business, they should make good. Subordinates. I decided without asking your opinion. Decided without asking? Wang Jianguo chuckled lightly, his voice carrying a hint. Of approval, ha, you still remember to report to me. I just thought it wasn’t a big deal. Wang Chen chuckled. Wang Jianguo walked. To the window, looking at the night view outside the city, his voice low, your judgment on horse racing at the Hong Kong Jockey Club is quite good. Your grandfather often says you need to know how to recognize people, only when you see a person clearly can you use them with confidence. It’s like horse racing, you need to know which horses have good endurance and which have enough strength, all must be clear in your mind. That’s how you win every battle. Wang Chen pondered upon hearing this. However, Wang Jianguo changed the subject, laughing, I see you’re handling things quite well, you’ve learned some of my essence. As for the Xiang and Zhang families, I’ll have someone keep an eye on them, with them, they can’t turn the tide. Having people under you makes some things easier to handle. Will Ian Hui have a negative impact? It wouldn’t be good if it got out, after all, hundreds of thousands. Before Wang Chen could. Finish, he was interrupted by Wang Zhanguo, you don’t need to worry about these things, this little bit won’t shake our Wang family. You. Just need to have fun during these two years of college, no need to worry too much, your grandpa and dad are here for you, Wang. Zhanguo’s words moved Wang Chen deeply. Even though his identity was different in this life, the relationship remained unchanged, and perhaps even stronger. Just weigh some small matters yourself, I believe you can handle them well. Is the money on you enough? If it’s not, there’s nothing I can do, your mom is strict, so you can only go to her. Wang Chen felt a wave of frustration. Such a big boss with such a large group, yet he was complaining about being broke. If he didn’t want to give, then just say so, why make so many excuses? Wang Jianguo continued encouraging him. Actually, you did well this time. Our family’s influence overseas has always been lacking, and with the support of the Xiang, Zhang, and he families, it brings some benefits. Dad, are you actually praising me? Next time, I’ll bring my girlfriend back for you to see. Wang Chan raised an eyebrow and smiled. Then your grandparents will definitely be very happy. Wang Jianguo seemed even happier, wondering when this kid had become so sensible. You’re doing great now, young people. Should be a bit more carefree. If you like a girl, go after her actively. The more, the better, the family doesn’t like for them to eat. If you have ten or so chubby little ones, your grandpa can handle it. Wang Chen rolled his eyes at his phone. Dad, are you asking me? To expand the family? It sounds like you’re sending me to a breeding farm. Nonsense, came Wang Jianguo’s playful scolding from the phone. Wang Chen couldn’t help but chuckle. At that moment, outside the villa where Wang Chen was staying, he chowli and stood at the door. In a bathrobe, glancing at a few voice messages her mother had sent on her phone. She was caught in a dilemma. Her mind felt chaotic. filled with random thoughts ah so annoying he chalian stomped her foot in frustration her cheeks flushing with embarrassment after looking at the messages on her phone again she took a deep breath and gently knocked on the door she immediately tensed up waiting however after a long wait there was still no sign of wang chin coming to open the door could he have fallen asleep he chalian couldn’t help but wonder she knocked again this time more forcefully but still no response he chalian took out a room card from her pocket, looked around to see if anyone was watching, and quickly walked inside. Little did she know, not far around the corner, a pair of eyes was watching her intently. If someone had seen those eyes, they would have clearly noticed the anger within them. Wang Chen, where are you? After entering, He Chao Lian saw that the lights in the room were still on. She cautiously walked inside. However, she couldn’t find Wang Chen anywhere. Hearing the sound of water coming from the bathroom, she tiptoed carefully in that direction, only to discover that Wang Chen was taking a bath inside. Then, her eyes darted, and she walked towards the master bedroom, casually turning off the light inside. The moonlight outside was completely blocked by the curtains, leaving only the light from the living room. She stood by the bed for a while. The bathrobe she was wearing slipped down, revealing her stunning body curves, but unfortunately, it was all hidden in the darkness. She turned to the side and slipped under the covers, shyly burying her head in the blanket. Listening to the sound of water from the bathroom, her heart raced. She didn’t know if what she was doing was right, whether Wang Chen would be angry or pleasantly surprised. When they returned to the villa to rest, her mother called with a video call. She answered directly. Lian Lian, you’re not asleep yet, right? Her mother’s voice came through the phone video. He Chao Lian smiled and replied, Mommy, we just got back from the concert and are about to sleep. Alright, you must be tired tonight, so go to bed early. The third concubine chatted with her daughter about everyday matters, then casually asked, Lian Lian, how do you feel about Wang Chen? He Chao Lian suddenly tightened. Her grip on the phone, her ears burning. She said with a wandering gaze, mom, why are you asking this all of a sudden? Seeing you. So nervous, he he he. The third concubine chuckled lightly, your dad wants to match you with Wang Chen, and you know, mommy. Just wants to ask you. I, I think he’s pretty good. He chowly and suddenly spoke, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s buzz. As soon. As the words left her mouth, she hurriedly buried her face in the pillow, leaving only half of her reddened ear exposed. Our lian lian. Has finally come to her senses? The third concubine said with great satisfaction, you know how much your dad values Wang Chen. The family situation isn’t great, and since you like Wang Chen, just be bold. Be proactive. The He family is considered a wealthy family. In Macau, envied by countless people, but compared to Wang Chen’s family, it’s like a firefly against the bright moon. As long as you win over Wang Chen, you’ll be the lady of the Wang family in the future, and you like him too, what a great fortune. Girls should be a bit more proactive. Look at your sister He Chao XIN, she’s been eyeing Wang Chen all along. Don’t you know what she’s thinking? Wang Chen might be snatched away at any moment, wouldn’t you be sad? Mommy isn’t forcing you, this is just a suggestion. When you encounter love, you have to take the initiative. This time, you must listen to mommy. Unable to withstand her mother’s relentless brainwashing, He Chao Lien’s heart gradually softened. She had already developed feelings for Wang Chen, so she obediently followed her. Mother’s words and secretly came to Wang Chen’s room, hiding it from He Chao Xien and the others. In the bathroom. Dad, do you know that? Yi and Xiang Long and Xiang who are ancient martial artists? Wang Chen asked his father the question he most wanted to know. Logically. Speaking, the Xiang family should have access to ancient martial artists and even be able to cultivate them themselves. Given their families. Stature, they shouldn’t be unaware of the news about ancient martial artists, yet he had never heard Wang Jianguo mention it over the years. He had the title of memory master, and as long as he had memories in that regard he wouldn’t forget. He was certain that Wang Jianguo had never spoken about it at home, otherwise, he wouldn’t be in the dark. I originally planned to tell you about this later. Wang Jianguo, hearing this, was not surprised and said softly, since you know, there’s no harm in telling you. Wang Chen immediately became interested and listened carefully to what Wang Jianguo had to say. You’ve encountered ancient martial artists, and tonight you also met that fortune teller, Chen Quebec. I believe you have some guesses, this world isn’t that simple. That’s what I think, but I don’t know what the real situation is. Wang Chen frowned and said. You must remember, modern society is a technological society. There may be some things that exceed our understanding, but they are all relics of the old era. They won’t stir up any waves. Many things in history, or so -called true teachings, have almost disappeared in the changes of history, even if someone has practiced some real skills based on a bit of residue. But in the face of guns and cannons, they are nothing but paper tigers, of no real use. Wang Chen then understood that his father had always known about these matters. Wang Jianguo spoke with disdain, showing no concern. However, Wang. Chen always felt there was more to it. Perhaps there were deeper secrets in the world that few had discovered. After Wang Jianguo finished speaking, he paused for a moment and smiled, haven’t you always known? I arranged for someone to protect you closely, right? Now. Try shouting out the window. What should I shout? Wang Chen glanced at the bathroom window, puzzled. This was the top of the MGM. Hotel. At several hundred meters high, could he really fly in? Anything. Wang Chen scratched his head and then shouted out the window. Brothers outside, want to come in for a bit? As soon as he finished speaking, a faint sound of metal scraping suddenly came from outside. The bathroom window, Wang Chen had not yet reacted when a shadow flashed past the frosted glass outside. Following that, a light sound came from the window, and a figure dressed in black combat gear actually hung upside down like a gecko, peering in with its upper body. Young master Wang, it’s me, shadow. The deep voice carried a hoarse magnetism. The person bent their legs to gain leverage and landed. Lightly, making almost no sound as the soles of their boots touched the marble floor. Wang Chen’s pupils constricted sharply. Until this person appeared, he had sensed nothing at all. It should be noted that his physical fitness had already reached 150 points, bolstered by the martial arts master attribute. An ordinary person getting this close to him would definitely trigger his awareness. However, this person in black had approached him from hundreds of meters away outside the building, and he only noticed their presence at the moment they appeared. It was simply terrifying. The man before him, in his forties, wore black combat gear, his features. Sharp and defined, with knife -like fine lines crawling at the corners of his eyes, it his hawk-like sharp gaze made him seem even more. Menacing. Young master wine, there’s no need to panic. I am a member of a special military unit, and I have been protecting the commander. Closely until now. He straightened his back and saluted, the muscles beneath his clothing as solid as rock. Six months ago, the. Commander ordered me to ensure your safety. I specialize in close combat and cold weapon warfare, modern firearm shooting, demolition, reconnaissance, disguise, all of it. I’ve been by your side, just call if you need anything. Wang Chen noticed a gruesome old scar. On the man’s neck, visible from his face down to his collar, partially hidden by the combat gear. Wang Chen activated his true eye too. Take a look. The man’s information instantly appeared before him. Name, Lin Jianzong slash shadows, age, 45, height, 178 centimeters, charm, 88. Physique, 199, favorability, 80, skills, military killing techniques, not viewable, Xingyi Quan, not viewable, this was yet another. Person whose background Wang Chen could not discern. Looking at the man before him, Wang Chen felt an overwhelming sense of danger. Every hair on his body standing on end. Not to mention the skills that were not viewable, just based on his towering physique of 1.199 points, it would only take one move for him to kill Wang Chen. Wang Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit relieved. But this expert was there to protect him, not as an enemy. The voice of Wang Jianguo came through the phone, so, how was it? Did it give you a scare? Impressive. Wang Chen looked up and down at Shadow, his eyes filled with admiration. He sat up in the bathtub. Suddenly thinking of something, his eyes sparkling with curiosity as he asked, where are you staying tonight? How do you usually live? Shadow was so elusive, he couldn’t possibly be hanging on the outside wall of the building, right? Like a martial arts master from a TV show, sleeping on a rope? That seemed too absurd. Young Master Wang, you’re overthinking it. I and another partner take turns protecting. Your safety. Shadow smiled helplessly and said, I live right downstairs. Generally, wherever you go, we follow, always around. Your room. Alright, then you can go back. Wang Chen suddenly realized. So that was how it was, he had thought such martial arts experts. Just hung outside without needing to eat or drink. He had originally wanted to invite him to rest in the room, but it seemed that. Wouldn’t be necessary. Yes, young master. After Shadow finished speaking, he turned and walked toward the window. Then, with a leap, he. jumped down into the hundreds of meters of height. Watching this made Wang Chen’s scalp tingle. He stood up and went to the window to look outside. The neon lights of the MGM shimmered at night, revealing a scene of bustling prosperity. The sea breeze tousled Wang Chen’s heresy scanned around but could not see shadow’s figure. Wang Chen was very satisfied with this bodyguard. After taking another glance outside, he returned to the bathtub and comfortably lay back down. You’ve seen the shadow and there’s also the dark owl. You can. Rest assured with them, with their skills, no one can touch you as long as you’re in the country. Wang Jianguo’s hearty laughter came. From the phone. They usually stay in the shadows, so you can do whatever you want without any danger, and they won’t interfere with your affairs when there’s no threat. Why not let them stay by my side? Hiding them isn’t very convenient, I wouldn’t want to scare someone. At an unexpected moment. The shadow and the others have special identities, they aren’t suited to appear in public. Wang Jianguo’s voice suddenly turns serious, and don’t expect them to handle things for you. Your grandfather emphasized before sending them that. They won’t act unless there’s a life and death crisis. You need to understand this. Alright, but is having only two people too few? I’m your precious son, can’t you arrange for a few more? Wang Chan readily agreed. He already had a bunch of entries that ordinary. People couldn’t access, and he was immune to firearms. There was nothing to fear in Hua Gua. However, he still wanted Wang Jianguo to get. Him a few more bodyguards, the more powerful bodyguards, the better, especially since he was already exposed to the public. One more. Bodyguard meant a bit more safety. Until he was completely invincible, there would always be something that could take his life. Wang Chen valued his life highly. You kid have some lofty thoughts. Do you know their worth? I’m out of options, if you have a way, just ask. Your grandfather. Wang Jianguo laughed and scolded him. Fine. If there aren’t any, then forget it. Wang Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit regretful, then thought of Chen the lame and stroked his chin. You know that Chen the lame, right? He seems quite extraordinary. That person has a very special identity, and his attitude towards you is quite good, that’s rare. Did he say anything to you? Yes. He said I have a purple aura appearing on my forehead, indicating great fortune and opportunities. He also mentioned that the he. Family’s fortune was declining, but because of me, their fortune has improved. Wang Chen didn’t hide anything and recounted everything. Chen the lame had said to Wang Jianguo. Good. Good. Good. Wang Jianguo’s voice came through the phone, excited as he slammed the table. No wonder you’re my offspring. Even Chen the lame predicts you have great fortune. That’s fantastic. You really made the right choice. Going to Macau this time. So many people want to find him for a fortune telling but can’t. With what he said, your grandfather will. Be very happy. Is it really that rare to get a fortune told by him? Wang Chen asked, puzzled by Wang Jianguo’s excitement. Wang Jianguo’s. Booming laughter came through. His temperament is quite peculiar. He doesn’t charge for fortune telling, nor does he seek power. Only relying on fate. How many powerful figures can’t find him? After hearing this, Wang Chen glanced at the account of. When Renxiang Rui on Faixin, the corner of his mouth twitching as he said lightly, I have his disciples Faixin. What? You have his. Disciples Faixin. Wang Jianguo was somewhat surprised and even more confused. Could it be that his foolish son really had great fortune? And even Chen the lame looked at him differently? It was one thing for Chen the lame to give Wang Chen a fortune, but now his disciple. Had added Wang Chen on Faixin. Yes, he even said he would come back to find me after he graduated. Wang Chen chuckled lightly. He. Mentioned this mainly to test Won Jang-wo to see if he knew everything happening around him. It seemed that the shadow and the others weren’t as mysterious as he thought. It made sense, at that time, the bodyguards led by Hee-yoo Jun surrounded the casino tightly, making it difficult for them to blend in. They must have been observing from a distance and didn’t understand the finer details. You did well. With this matter, you must maintain a good relationship with his disciple. So many officials and nobles are eager to connect with him. And here you are, having a pie fall from the sky right onto your head. Really? Wang Jianguo shook his head inside. When Wang Chen was born years ago, he had specially asked someone to find Chen Kezi, thinking of having him read a fortune. To see how his fate was. He had made an effort to search, but couldn’t find him. It was only after Wang Chen took a trip to Macau that he encountered Chen. Kezi, who even took the initiative to read his fortune. Just as he said, Wang Chen had great fortune. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to meet him. Wang Chen hung up the phone and tossed the latest model of the remote control aside. Frowning, he opened the system. panel ding system upgrading 35 there were still two days left until the system upgrade was complete and after taking a glance wang chan lost interest he stood up wiped the water droplets off his body and walked out in his bare muscular form arriving in front of the bedroom he saw that the light was off inside shrouded in darkness he remembered that the light had been on before however he didn’t think much of it assuming he had accidentally turned it off he lay down on the bed burrowing under the covers and His expression froze for a moment as he mechanically turned his head. He saw nothing. Only the outline of the quilt bulging beside him. What was that sensation in his hand? It couldn’t be what he thought, could it? Wang Chen felt a bit angry. What did the He family take him? For, yes, he had no resistance to beautiful women and quite liked He Chaolian and He Chaoxin. But they couldn’t just send any woman to his bed, could they? Was he that desperate? Wang Chen, who initially had a good impression of old Master He, began to change his mind. He activated the perspective eye and looked inside the quilt. What met his eyes was a sea of white. The curvaceous figure made Wang Chen nod repeatedly. This woman had a good figure, but he wondered how her face looked. His gaze slowly moved upward, finally stopping on. A familiar face. He was instantly stunned. How could it be her? Wang Chen threw off the quilt, revealing He Chalian’s flushed little face. Wang Chen gij. He Chalian shyly covered her key parts, her breath heavy with the scent of alcohol. She had come to Wang. Chen’s bed completely naked, waiting for him to finish his bath. But after waiting for a long time, Wang Chen was still soaking in the bathroom. She rolled around on the bed, her mind racing with thoughts, fearing that if Wang Chen rejected her, he might think she was a casual woman. But what mommy said wasn’t wrong, if she didn’t seize the opportunity with a man like Wang Chen, He Chao Xin might get ahead of her. She couldn’t possibly compete with her sister for a boyfriend, could she? To avoid regretting it later, she had to make sure Wang Chen took her tonight, but He Chao Lian was still very scared. she secretly put on some clothes and sneaked to the living room to grab a bottle of red wine finishing it in no time if she hadn’t known she was still waiting for wang chen she would have fallen asleep long ago now seeing wang chen’s handsome face she couldn’t help but smile dreamily why are you on my bed wang chen seeing her shy smile almost laughed in anger he reached out to cover her with the quilt when did he become so charming the relationship with he chalian had made a good breakthrough tonight and wang chen believed that after a few more days of contact she would agree to be his girlfriend. But wasn’t this too fast? Wang Chen Gij, you want me, right? I love you so much. He Chaolian directly hugged. Wang Chen’s hot body. Wang Chen’s face was handsome enough, but how could his body be so good? 8 -pack abs, a V-line, and that muscular. Chest made He Chaolian unable to resist. She pressed her entire body against him, feeling so happy at that moment. Chaolian, do you know what you’re doing? Wang Chen felt a heat rising all over him but struggled to maintain his composure. I know. He Chaolian’s voice. was soft and sweet with a hint of drunkenness as she buried her face in wang chen’s chest the tip of her nose was filled with wang chen’s scent he chow lien don’t touch me randomly or something will happen wang chen wrapped his arms around he chow lien’s body stopping her mischievous hands he he who told you your body is so nice to touch he chow lien’s face was full of smiles as she looked at wang chen’s flustered expression and tilted her head to kiss him wang chen was taken aback for a moment then he refused to back down Slowly savoring the deliciousness in his mouth, He Chao Lian’s fingertips climbed up Wang Chen’s neck, her hot breath mingling, with the rich aroma of red wine and her body scent all enveloping his face. Wang Chen’s throat rolled, his palms unconsciously tightening. As he pulled her closer into his embrace, the world seemed to suddenly lose its sound. Only the intertwined heartbeats echoed in their ears, and He Chao Lian felt Wang Chen’s strong heartbeat becoming even more intoxicated. Her kiss was soft from the drunkenness. like the gentlest willow fluff in spring, yet it carried an irresistible heat, teasing his taut nerves with each touch. He Chao Lian. Let out a soft moan, her legs going weak, almost hanging on him. After an unknown amount of time, He Chao Lian finally gasped for breath, and released him, her eyes shimmering like water as she looked at him, her cheeks flushed like the evening blow, brother Wang Chen. I really like you. No regrets? Mum. He Chao Lian’s eyes were filled with spring water, and her small hands began to stir again. Wang. Chen was stirred up, his eyes blazing, unable to control his body’s reaction, he flipped over and pinned her beneath him, with He Chao. Lian being so proactive, if he didn’t take action he wouldn’t be a man. Brother Wang Chen, love me. He Chao Lian wrapped her arms. Around Wang Chen’s neck, her eyes dreamy, kissing him again. The room was pitch black. Only the sound of their hurried breaths intertwined. In the air. The lamp was knocked askew, the worn yellow light spilling over their overlapping shadows. Outside the window, it had started. to rain at some point the sound of raindrops tapping against the glass mixed with the intermittent gasps inside the room echoing for most of the night finally it returned to calm at this moment in the neighboring villa he chow xin was hiding under the blanket silently crying she didn’t know what was wrong with her she just felt like crying it was already very late yet she couldn’t sleep her mind constantly replaying the scene of he chow lian walking into wang chen’s room she had originally wanted to ask wang chen if he wanted a late night snack but she had just seen he chow lian sneaking around at the door in the end she went in she waited outside for a long time but he chow lian never came out she could only return to her own room why was he chow lian going to wang chen’s room so late wang chen had already said he liked her why was she in such a hurry it was really infuriating ah that annoying he chow lian it’s really driving me crazy he chow xin angrily pounded the pillow on her bed unable to sleep he chow xin got up Dressed neatly, left her bedroom, and walked towards He Yu Jun’s room. She arrived at the door, hesitated for a moment, and then knocked. Hard on He Yu Jun’s door. After a while, the door opened. Elder sister, why are you knocking on the door so late? I’m still video. Chatting with Meng Yao. He Yu Jun looked at He Chao XIN outside the door, helplessly saying. He Chao XIN didn’t listen to what he. Said, not wanting to talk to him, angrily pushing him aside and walking inside. She entered the living room. The flat screen was still. Video chatting with Xi Meng Yao. Upon seeing Ximangyao, He Chao Xien put away her unhappy expression, sat down on the sofa, and greeted. Horror. Ximangyao, seeing He Chao Xien come in, knew she must have something to discuss with He Yujun, so she said goodnight to him and ended the video call. He Yujun sat down opposite He Chao Xien, glanced at her, and asked, what’s the matter? Woo woo, it’s over, I have no chance anymore. He Chao Xien could no longer hold back and started crying directly.He Yujun immediately panicked, pulling out a Tissued a hand to He Chaoxin, but her tears flowed like a river that had burst its banks, crying endlessly. He Yujun helplessly looked at her and said, Chaoxin, who bullied you? What exactly happened? You need to tell me, I can’t help you if you keep crying. Whoa whoa. I just saw He Chaolian go to brother Wang Chen’s room. He Chaoxin cried even louder, intermittently telling He Yujun about what she had just seen. This time, He Yujun understood why He Chaoxin was so heartbroken. It turned out she felt she had no chance anymore. From the current situation, it seemed that He Chaoxin indeed had no chance. He Chaolian was so beautiful, and as her brother, he knew very well that many people pursued her, including top-tier wealthy young men. Could Wang Chen resist when she personally delivered herself? To him? Absolutely impossible. He Yujun couldn’t help but slap his forehead. He had originally wanted to give He Chaoxin some advice. To try and snatch Wang Chen away from He Chaolian. Things were developing too quickly. Brother, you have to think of a way for me, I really like him. If I can’t be with him, I definitely won’t be able to take it. He chowshing cried without any regard for her image. And thankfully, the rooms at the MGM hotel were made of special materials providing absolute soundproofing. If it were an ordinary hotel, the entire building would probably hear her cries. He Yujun felt helpless as he listened to her sobbing and could only sigh in. Resignation, saying, alright, alright, stop crying. Let me think of a way for you. What way is there? It’s already like this. He. Chaoxin gradually stopped crying but continued to sniffle, wiping her tears. Let me think. He Yujun looked at He Chaoxin’s state and felt a wave of dizziness. They had only known each other for a few days and she was already so deeply infatuated. How charming could Wang Chen be? Logically speaking, even if she liked him, it shouldn’t happen so quickly. But both He Chaoxin and He Chaolian had fallen in love and He Chaolian had even delivered herself right to Wang Chen’s mouth. He couldn’t understand it. He also couldn’t figure out. How to break the deadlock and help He Chaoxin win Wang Chen’s affection. He stood up and went to the wine cabinet to find a bottle of red wine. He poured some for He Chaoxin. Watching her gulp down glass after glass of wine, He Yujun felt a pang of heartache but thought, better of stopping her, otherwise, she would probably be sleepless tonight. He Yajuan’s mind kept spinning, trying to find a good solution. Wang Chen’s importance to their family was undoubtedly significant, both his father and mother hoped to have such a son-in-law, so they naturally couldn’t offend him. He Chao Lian was his sister, and He Chaoxin was his biological sister, how could he help? He. Yu Jun shook his head, took a sip of the wine in his glass, and sighed, even with my IQ of 300, I still feel powerless. The. Next day. At 2 in the afternoon. Wang Chen was shirtless, wearing beach shorts, and sporting a pair of DG sunglasses worth 18.000, lounging on a beach chair, watching He Chao Lian and He Chaoxin playing volleyball in the distance. He leisurely enjoyed the. Summertime. This was a private beach near the MGM, which was usually only open to VIP clients. Now, it had even refused entry to others, only allowing Wang Chen. The beach and bikinis were so easily accessible, yet Wang Chen felt a bit bored. It seemed beautiful, but it was just that. He glanced at He Yu Jun, who was applying sunscreen on a nearby chair, and said casually, He Yu Jun, are you a man? Or not? A grown man still putting on sunscreen. Damn, not everyone is like you. Aren’t you afraid of getting sunburned? He Yu Jun got. Angry seeing Wang Chen’s relaxed demeanor, picked up a bottle of sunscreen and threw it at Wang Chen, but he caught it effortlessly. He felt even more helpless, enviously glancing at Wang Chen’s healthy-looking muscles, then lowered his head to carefully apply sunscreen. To every inch of his skin, damn, this is really outrageous. Wang Chen is handsome, and even though he’s taller, he can tolerate it. But how can he not be afraid of the sun? It really leaves him baffled. Wang Chen picked up the freshly squeezed coconut juice from the. Sharon took a sip, quite satisfied with his ability to withstand the sun. When he Chalian wanted to apply sunscreen on him, she suddenly remembered that he could heal quickly. A little UV burn? What’s there to be afraid of? Reality indeed did not disappoint him. The skin’s UV burns couldn’t keep up with the skin’s repair speed. Wang Chen immediately felt at ease. A real man wouldn’t use sunscreen. Not even a dog would. Just as Wang Chen was enjoying his coconut juice, a clear voice called out from a distance, Brother Wang Chen, come, play volleyball with us. He Chaoxin waved her arms high, the tassels on her pink bikini swinging gently with her movements, radiating. Vitality, under the sun. The expression on He Chaoxin’s face was very natural, showing no trace of the sadness she had last night. However, beneath her beautiful big eyes, there was a faint layer of dark circles, indicating she hadn’t rested well the night before. He. Cha Lien, with her hands on her hips, raised an eyebrow and smiled at them, what’s wrong? Afraid to compete with us sisters? I just. Applied it, and if I move, it’ll all be ruined. He Yujun looked up at the eager sisters in the distance, then glanced down at her. Carefully applied sunscreen, hesitating. Before she could finish her sentence, Wang Chen had already sprung up from the lounge chair, his bronze abs glistening in the sunlight, making He Chao Lian and He Chao Xin’s eyes widen. Especially He Chao Lian, who had touched Wang Chen’s body last night knew just how great his physique was. Thinking of Wang Chen’s prowess, He Chao Lian’s breath caught in her throat. Her gaze uncontrollably glued to the taut lines of his waist and abdomen as memories from last night surged in her mind. Those moments. Intertwined with warmth and breaths, she remembered the sensation of her fingertips gliding over that bronze skin, firm and warm, carrying. A power that made her lose herself. The sea breeze swept past her ears, salty and sharp, but it couldn’t disperse the heat on her. Cheeks. The gaze he Chowlian directed at Wang Chen was filled with more tenderness than water. Less talk, let’s go. The loser treats me. To a big dinner tonight. After standing up, Wang Chen pulled He Yajuan’s arm. Hey, I didn’t say I wouldn’t go, and aren’t we on? The same team? If we lose, we lose together. Why should I treat you? He Yujun protested, being dragged along by Wang Chen. The four, quickly gathered in front of the beach volleyball net, with He Chaolian and He Chaoxin standing on the same side, exchanging and owing. Glance filled with mischievous smiles. Wang Chen and He Yujun rolled up their sleeves, ready for a showdown. We’ll play best of three. And the losers are little dogs. Before He Chaoxing could finish, she unexpectedly tossed the volleyball high into the air and slammed. It towards the opposite side. He Yujun hadn’t reacted yet when Wang Chen dashed forward, skillfully bumping the ball up. He Yujun seized. The opportunity to leap up and executed a beautiful spike. He Chaoxing and He Chaolian worked in perfect harmony, with a quick turn. He Chaolian agilely positioned herself to spike the ball towards Wang Chen. Brother Wang Chen, you’re losing, He Chaoxing giggled. Angle of the ball was tricky, Wang Chen had just served and hadn’t adjusted his stance, so he definitely wouldn’t be able to receive. It’s not far away, He Yu Jun and Wang Chen hadn’t coordinated well, standing too far back, making it impossible for them to catch the ball now. He Chaoxin and He Chaolian hadn’t even had time to celebrate when they saw Wang Chen lean back slightly, using his waist strength to perform a beautiful flip, sending the ball back to the opponent’s court. He Chaoxin didn’t expect him to make such agile moves. On the beach, she was momentarily caught off guard, and the ball rolled right by her feet. staring at the volleyball rolling by, he. Chaoxin’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stomped her foot, cheater. That move was a foul. She pointed at Wang Chen, whose body was not yet fully upright, the tips of his hair sticking to his flushed cheeks from the intense exercise. This is just one round, there’s still a chance. He Chao Lian bit her lip, but her eyes couldn’t hide her admiration for her boyfriend. After bending down to pick up the ball, she comforted he Chao Xien. Wang Chen shook the sand out of his hair, and at that moment, he was also covered in dust. It’s yore. Turn to serve, Wang Chin said with a raised eyebrow and a smile. His gaze swept over He Chao Xien and finally landed on He Chao Lien. Unexpectedly, her figure wasn’t bad. He hadn’t noticed it before. But now that he had already had intimate contact with He Chao Lien, and confirmed their relationship last night, he felt it inappropriate to look too much at He Chao Xien, who was He Chao Lien’s sister. Get ready. He Chao Xien suddenly threw the ball into the sky, the orange volleyball drawing a dazzling arc in the sunlight. This serve. was even more powerful than the last, heading straight for He Ya Jun’s face. He Yu Jun jumped up in a panic, barely managing to catch the ball and returned it with a backhand. Seeing the ball come back, He Chao Exe In’s eyes sharpened, and she quickly assumed a defensive stance with He Chao Lian. He Chao Lian bent her knee slightly, her gaze fixed on the trajectory of the volleyball, her hair fluttering in the sea breeze and the beads of sweat on her face glistening in the sunlight. She looked stunning. She effortlessly hit the ball. Towards Wang Chen, only to see him leap like a cheetah, delivering a fierce spike that slammed down right next to He Chao Exian’s feet. Here. We go again. Can’t you just face me head on? He Chao Exian stomped her foot, shouting in frustration. As Wang Chen landed, he brushed. Off the dust from his clothes, a mischievous smile playing on his lips. It’s a competition, the goal is to win. This was already a. Restrained display from him, with his physical prowess, if he let loose, even a world champion wouldn’t stand a chance against his basketball. Skills. Suddenly, He Yujun grabbed a handful of sand and threw it at Wang Chen, but Wang Chen dodged it effortlessly and immediately. Turned to counterattack. He Chao Xien gasped and, with a quick glance, grabbed some sand to join in. Meanwhile, He Chao Lian was hit. In the face with sand that seemed to come from nowhere. Her previously smiling face instantly froze. Don’t run. Who did that just now? Ha ha ha. Come catch me, sis. He Chao Xien was beaming with laughter as she turned to run. For a moment, the beach was filled with joyful laughter. At that moment, a tall, exquisitely beautiful woman, about 1 meter 80, walked over from a distance. She wore a simple white backless long dress, a flower tucked behind her ear and held a glass of ice lemonade. What stood out the most was her graceful posture, her back straight, neck elongated like a swan, each step exuding the precise rhythm of a runway model. Seeing the chaotic scene in the distance, Hee-Yoo-Joon shrank his neck, instinctively wanting to turn and leave. Hi, Meng-Yao, you finally made it. Hee-Yoo-Joon, who was playing by the sea, noticed the girl, his eyes lighting up as he braved a few grains of sand thrown at him and ran towards her. Hee-Yoo-Joon jogged up to Shi-Mang-Yau, grabbed her, and then grinned foolishly, Congratulations on successfully completing the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. We had agreed that I would personally accompany you, but something came up at home that delayed me. Don’t. Be mad, I’m really sorry. Shi-Mang-Yau, caught by Hee-Yoo -Joon, smiled helplessly, It’s okay, I know you didn’t mean it. If I were really mad, would I still come? Why are you so dirty, really? Ximengyao saw the sand stuck to him and reached out to carefully clean him. Up! Hiyajuan’s heart raced wildly. Looking up slightly at Ximengyao’s enchanting eyes, his gaze gradually became infatuated. Ximengyao noticed his stare and playfully scolded. What are you looking at? Wait a minute! Hiyajuan’s expression instantly brightened. And he turned to run off into the distance. What are you doing? Ximengyao exclaimed, almost tripping over as she watched Hiyajuan. Dash away! With a helpless sigh, she muttered, not steady at all. Before long, He Yujun returned to Ximangyao’s side, hands behind. His back, smiling as he said, guess what gift I prepared for you. Ximangyao was pleasantly surprised and teased, you didn’t prepare. Spicy strips for me, did you? How could I? He Yujun felt a bit embarrassed. While Ximangyao loved those snacks, he couldn’t. Just give her spicy strips. Then what is it? I can’t guess. He Yujun scratched his head and pulled out a beautiful bouquet of roses. From behind him, this is for you. Do you like it? It’s okay. Ximangyao brought the flowers to her nose and took a sniff, but suddenly, she felt something was off. It seemed like there was something wrapped inside the flowers. She found a gift box hidden within and, slowly took it out, looking at Hiyujun and asking, what is this? You’re not giving me something expensive, are you? I can’t accept anything from you. Hiyujun quickly refused, insisting it was just some cheap stuff. Only then did Ximangyao reluctantly accept it. At Hiyajuan’s gesture, she slowly opened the box, revealing a delicate necklace. She exclaimed in surprise, it’s a Pandora necklace. So beautiful. Do you like it? It’s not bad. Then let me put it on for you. Aham haam. He Yajuan’s mouth moved, his heart. Struggling as he wanted to say something, but he hesitated. Finally, he shook his head and helped her put on the carefully chosen necklace. Not far away on the beach, Wangchen held He Xiaolian in his arms, looking at He Xiaoshin and teasing, your brother seems pretty. Normal, but he turns silly when facing Xi Mengiao. If this gets posted online, it could attract quite a bit of attention. Stop it. As long as my brother is with Shi Mangyao, his IQ drops to zero. He looks so foolish. He Xiaoshin covered her face with her hand. Unable to bear looking at He Yajuan’s silly expression. But seeing everyone else paired up, she couldn’t help but feel envious. She glanced. At Wang Chan, her eyes dimming, a pang of bitterness in her heart. The sea breeze, carrying a salty taste, swept past her ears as she. Stared at the couple embracing. Their happy appearance deeply pierced her heart. She could only hide her sour smile in the sea breeze. letting the salty air wash over her reddened eyes. Yet, she still held back the tears. She didn’t want Wang Chen to see her like this. She firmly remembered what He Yujun had said last night. She couldn’t act spoiled in front of Wang Chen. She had to wait. Wait for the right opportunity to come. Wait for their relationship to show cracks. As long as Wang Chen grew tired of Zhuelian or if they had a conflict and broke up, her chance would come. That way, her sister couldn’t blame her. Wang Chen kissed He Zhuelian’s red lips, feeling wonderful. He Zheolian gently embraced Wang Chen’s solid body, smiling as she looked towards He Yujun. Wang Chen’s gaze towards her was filled with love, and then he activated the Eye of Truth. Name, He Zheolian, Age, 27, Height, 170cm, Charm, 97, Physique, 85, Favorability, 96, Skills, Financial Management, Advanced Golf, Advanced, Skiing, Advanced, Ballet, Intermediate, He hadn’t expected He Zheolian to be so foolish, coming to his bed on her own last night, offering herself up. In the end, she even confessed her. purpose for being there. Seeing her with tear-streaked cheeks, looking pitiful, Wang Chen forgave her.He Chao Lian truly liked him, and, Wang Chen could feel it. The real-time display of a 96-point favorability rating confirmed this. He could guess a bit about the He family’s intentions behind their hospitality.He Chao Lian’s proactive behavior must have been pushed by He Hongshin and her mother. Initially, coming to Macau was merely to give Xiangzhu some face. That’s why he attended the birthday banquet of He Hongshin’s grandfather. What they wanted was simply the protection of the Wang family, which was nothing for Wang Chen and could be easily achieved. That old. Foxy Hongchen didn’t say it outright but sent his daughter instead. Currently, he had indeed achieved the result he wanted. But all. Of this hinged on whether Wang Chen liked her and coincidentally he had developed a fondness for the seemingly aloof yet inwardly innocent he Chao Lian. Otherwise, no matter how many plans the Yi family had, if he wasn’t willing, it would all be in vain. Wang Chen was. No longer that pure and innocent Xiao Chu Nan who had just been reborn, ordinary women could no longer touch his heart. After the deep conversation last night, he found himself liking He Chao Lian even more. He was also quite satisfied with how obedient she was during their duo Q game last night, whatever he wanted, she would try her best to fulfill. However, in terms of skills at the king rank, He Chao Lian still had a long way to go. He would have to give her more training later. Otherwise, if she kept dragging him down, losing points in duo Q would be troublesome. Do you think Yu Jun will propose to Shi Mengiao? Wang Chen stroked his chin and asked he. Chao Lian. It should be in the next few days, he Chao Lian shook her head and said enviously, don’t look at he Yu Jun being bold. Usually, but in front of sister Mengiao, he’s quite well behaved dot. I heard he’s been planning to propose to sister Mengiao recently. Wanting to bring her home before the new year. Oh, really? Wang Chen nodded. Suddenly, he Chao Lian seemed to realize something. And looked at Wang Chen with suspicion, wait, why are you so concerned about them? How do you know sister Mengiao’s name? He Chao. Lien’s gaze turned sharp, she knew Wang Chen had many women around him, but she absolutely could not accept him having thoughts about Sister Meng Yao, who was her brother’s girlfriend. How could he care so much? This was absolutely not allowed. He Chao Lien stared at his somewhat stiff face, while Wang Chen’s heart trembled. Oh no. He had let it slip. They hadn’t introduced him to her, this woman was. He Ye Jun’s girlfriend, Xi Meng Yao, and he shouldn’t have known about her. Yet Wang Chen had immediately blurted out her name. Cold. Sweat broke out on Wang Chen’s forehead, but suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and calmly said, I saw some gossip about them online. It’s not strange to know her name, right? Oh, I see. He Chao Lian patted her head, finally realizing, feeling a bit embarrassed. After all, He Yu Jun had gone on a variety show just to pursue Xi Meng Yao, trying to win her heart through a staged romance. At that time, it had garnered a lot of attention online, so it wouldn’t be surprising if Wang Chen knew about it. But then Wang Chen suddenly. reached out and pinched her cheek, kissing her soft red lips, the look in your eyes just now clearly showed you were doubting my character, I didn’t, he Chao Lian quickly retorted, feeling shy, in your heart, am I really that fickle, Wang Chen pretended to be very, sad, you don’t believe me at all, I’m really heartbroken, I’m sorry, Wang Chen gij, it was my fault, then you have to make, it up to me, how do you want me to make it up, he Chao Lian asked curiously, but the expression on her face unconsciously turned a, charming shade of red, Wang Chen grinned mischievously, you’ll find out tonight, you’re so annoying. He Chao Lian didn’t understand what he meant, and she reached out to punch Wang Chen’s chest, but she was also somewhat looking forward to the evening’s arrival. Wang Chen was talking to her, but his expression showed he was deep in thought, suddenly feeling that something was off. In his past life, He Yu Jun proposed to Xi Mengiao next year, and they had their first child the same year. But according to He Chao Lian, He Yu Jun seemed to have the intention to propose now. This deviated from the memories he had. How could the proposal time be moved up? He couldn’t. possibly be mistaken about the proposal date he had the title of memory master which meant he couldn’t forget past memories let alone get them wrong could it be due to the butterfly effect in this life he yujun had come into contact with wang chen he appeared at he hong chen’s birthday banquet and had developed intricate ties with the he family because of wang chen he yajuan’s thoughts had changed leading to an earlier proposal to xi mang yao that made sense but if that were the case the memories wang chen carried in his mind might significantly deviate from his past life Right now, it was just the people around him that had changed. As the influence deepened, perhaps future events in the world would trigger a chain reaction, resulting in outcomes that were completely different from what he had in mind. Wang Chen felt a bit regretful. If his guess was correct, would his foresight become useless in the future? It wasn’t. Impossible. But there was nothing to lament. This foresight was just a convenience for him during investments helping him identify which companies had great potential and when global turmoil might occur. With the memories from his past life, he could prepare in advance. Losing it wouldn’t be a loss. He had plenty of money, even if he couldn’t invest precisely, he could just acquire any company he set his sights on. But he believed that no matter how much the world changed, overall, there wouldn’t be any major shifts. The relentless flow of history was not something he could change alone, unless he could influence the development of a country. That would be the only way to potentially alter the trajectory of the entire world. However, it was normal for the life trajectories of those who had come into. contact with him to deviate somewhat in the future. That was not surprising. He Yujun walked over with Ximengyao and introduced, Wang Chen, this is my girlfriend Ximengyao, haha, isn’t she beautiful? I’m Wang Chen, he Chao Lian’s boyfriend. Wang Chen extended his hand to shake hers, smiling. Ximengyao happily said, hello, Wang Xiao, I’m Ximengyao. Your name is well known, I’ve been following. You’re D sound. She was very pleased to meet Wang Chen here. This newly emerged internet heartthrob was someone she had been paying. attention to and knew a bit about. Last night, while chatting with Hiyujun, she learned that Wang Chen, who had disappeared from the Chinese internet for a while, was now in Macau for fun. He had also become friends with Hiyujun. After the Victoria’s Secret show, Hiyujun wanted her to come to Macau for a vacation and to rest well, but she felt so tired and just wanted to go home and lie down comfortably. She didn’t want to go anywhere. Later, from Hiyujun, she learned that Wang Chen was here and heard about the events that had happened in the past few days. With the thought of meeting this super-rich second generation, she came to Macau. Seeing Wang Chen, whose fame now surpassed Wang Sitsong and Xinfen, Xi Mengiao couldn’t help but nod repeatedly. Wang Chen truly deserved to be the new heartthrob, having replaced Wang Sitsong as the national husband. Not to mention his family background far exceeded that of several others. Just based on his sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and a face as handsome as a fitness coach, along with a physique to match, the title of national husband was well-deserved. He Yujun noticed the way Xi Mengiao looked at Wang Chen filled with subtle admiration, and he glanced at Wang Chen’s eight -pack abs, instinctively tightening his stomach. Damn, what a miscalculation. He considered himself quite disciplined among the rich second-generation crowd, maintaining a clear outline of abs year-round. But standing next to Wang Chen, he felt like a skinny monkey. He looked so petite. How could he have forgotten about Wang Chen, this charmed demon, and even introduced him to Xi Mengiao? His proud physique, appearance, and even family background were all crushed by Wang Chen. A wave of worries surged in he. Yajuan’s heart, fearing that his beloved Ximangyao would be attracted to Wang Chen. If that were the case, he just, he just wouldn’t. Live anymore. He Yujun felt very anxious, but then saw that Ximangyao didn’t have any further interactions with Wang Chen, and he. Instantly breathed a sigh of relief. He almost lost his wife. Fortunately, he and Ximangyao were true love. He Yajuan’s heart suddenly. Filled with joy again. We’re all friends, just call me by my name, Wang Chen smiled. Ximangyao chuckled lightly and nodded, alright? Then I’ll call you Wang Chen. He Yujun quickly changed the subject, pointing to a yacht approaching in the distance, Meng Yao, to celebrate your great achievement at Victoria’s Secret, let’s go have some fun on the sea. Isn’t that too much trouble, the entertainment? At my sister’s place is quite fun too, Xi Meng Yao looked up at the approaching yacht and refused. Not at all, Wang Chen is here. Two, it’ll be more fun if we all go together, He Yujun winked at Wang Chen. Xi Meng Yao rarely accepted his expensive gifts, let alone, going to a yacht to have fun. He had suggested it before, but Xi Mengiao had always declined. With Wang Chen here, he simply used him. As an excuse, after all, Xi Mengiao couldn’t just disregard Wang Chen’s feelings, could she? I, I’m looking forward to it too, Wang. Chen said, seeing her wink at him. As expected, Xi Mengiao found it hard to refuse again and agreed to go on the yacht. Soon, the yacht. Arrived. The yacht lowered its ladder. Wang Chen and the others walked towards the yacht one after another. This was a super luxury yacht. over 90 meters long, with five levels in total, and the rooms inside were lavishly decorated with high -end furniture. There was a billiard room, an e-sports room, a small bar, a helicopter, and a helipad, anything Wang Chin could imagine could be found on this ship. Far better than the yacht he had been on with Wang Sikong last time. Of course, the price difference was huge, this yacht was worth over a hundred million. Besides the professional crew operating the yacht, there were also dozens of service staff and several bodyguards. After Wang Chan and He Yujun boarded, the captain retracted the ladder and the yacht’s engine started slowly accelerating towards the sea. Wang Chan and He Chalian went to the top-level room and casually surveyed the furnishings. Underfoot was a hand-woven Persian carpet. A massive bed occupied Wang Chan’s view, right next to which was the endless sea, with seagulls circling, the scenery, particularly beautiful. The wall facing the sea was completely hollowed out, embedded with anti-glare glass. Wang Chan walked to the panoramic glass window and spread his arms. He felt so refreshed. So beautiful. He Chalian walked to Wang Chen’s side, linking her arm. With his, gazing at the scenery outside and marveling. Hearing this, Wang Chen withdrew his gaze and looked into He Chalian’s autumn-like. Eyes, slowly saying, no matter how beautiful the scenery outside is, it can’t compare to you. You’re so annoying, always saying. Sweet things. He Chalian lightly punched Wang Chen’s chest, tilting her head to look at him. Wang Chen embraced the curvaceous he. Chalian before him and kissed her deeply, pressing his lips against her soft, tender ones. After a while, when He Chalian could hardly breathe, Wang Chen finally released his sweet kiss. What are you doing? Wang Chen scooped her up and headed towards the bathroom. Covered. In sweat, of course, it’s time for a shower. Then I’ll wash myself. He Chalian instantly understood Wang Chen’s lecherous thoughts upon hearing this and quickly refused. Ha ha, you don’t get to decide that. The spring breeze brushed against. Them, and another round of hard-fought struggle ensued. It was unclear how long it had been. The yacht arrived at a calm stretch of. Xi, shutting off the engine and stopping there. A gentle breeze swept across the horizon, and seagulls occasionally landed on the deck to rest, while the clear water revealed some fish swimming near the surface. The scenery was simply breathtaking. Wang Chen and Hiyujun walked towards the front of the deck with a fishing rod in hand. Behind them, Hi Chaolian, Hi Chaoxin, and Xi Mengiao lay on chairs in. Bikinis, whispering to each other and pointing at Wang Chen and Hiyujun. Hiyujun eagerly adjusted his fishing rod and then cast. It out. Wang Chen had fished in rivers, lakes, and even small ditches, but this was his first time fishing in the sea, and it felt quite novel. The sea rod was somewhat different from regular fishing rods, and after Yi Yu Jun explained, Wang Chen understood its functions. After casting it into the water, Wang Chen held it with one hand and sat down directly. Seeing this, Yi Yu Jun reminded him, Wang Chen, don’t be so careless, the fish in this area are not simple. Be careful not to get dragged into the water. Wang Chen raised in. eyebrow and smiled just about to tease him when the sea rod in his hand suddenly trembled violently the carbon fiber rod bending into a crescent shape we’ve gotta catch before he yujun finished speaking the fishing line emitted a sharp screech being yanked out with great force the tip of the rod bent even more what surprised he yujun was that wang chen held the rod with one hand and no matter how strong the fish was in the water his posture didn’t change at all this fish is not small wang chen felt the force in his hand, intently watching the splashes on the sea surface and activated his perspective eye. In an instant, Wang Chen’s vision pierced through. The water’s barrier, revealing the underwater scene where various unfamiliar fish swam everywhere. Sea turtles, jellyfish, and all sorts of colorful fish came into view. Following the direction of the tugging fishing line, he saw a swordfish, about the length of a person, biting the hook and thrashing in pain at the bottom of the sea. The surrounding fish scattered in fright. He Yu Jun, noticing. The commotion, put down his rod and rushed over to Wang Chen, excitedly watching the activity in the water. He kept directing, let it. Struggle for a bit, don’t rush to reel it in. Suddenly, the sea erupted with a huge splash, and a silver-blue figure broke through the. Waves. Hiyu Jun focused his gaze, it was a swordfish, easily the length of a person, its dorsal fin slicing through the air like a. Blade, with droplets of water refracting a rainbow under the sunset. Wow, it’s a swordfish. It’s so big. Steady. Don’t let it dive. Back into the reef area. Hiyujun was all excitement. Wang Chen, be careful, this kind of fish is not easy to catch. Don’t worry. Hey. Wang Chen gripped the rod with both hands and began to reel it in. The swordfish sensed the danger and suddenly surged forward. Like a silver lightning bolt. It violently swung its crescent-shaped tail, dragging the fishing line and fleeing at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour. The sea rod in Wang Chen’s hands emitted a strained hum and sparks flew from the reel’s gears due to the excessive speed. However, Wang Chin held onto the rod tightly and no matter how much strength it exerted, it was futile. Under his immense strength, it slowly moved closer to the yacht. Bro, you’re amazing. He Yu Jun cheered from the side, not worried at all that the fishing line would snap in this fierce struggle. The fishing rods they were using were quite expensive. If it broke on this little swordfish, that would be ridiculous. He Chao Lian and her two sisters had long abandoned their lounge chairs and rushed over barefoot to watch Meng Yao. held up her phone to record, capturing the tense jawline of Wang Chan and his hair tousled by the sea breeze, creating a scene filled with sexual tension alongside the crashing waves. If this were posted online, who knows how many young girls would be captivated. He Yu Jun was anxiously fidgeting nearby. He wanted to step in to help but was afraid of disrupting Wang Chan’s rhythm. Wang Chan remained calm and composed, alternating his movements to wear down the strength of the marlin. He Chao Lian and He Chaoxin watched with starry eyes. simply because Wang Chen looked incredibly handsome and exuded masculinity at that moment. Do you mind if I go live? Xi Mengiao shouted. At Wang Chen. Wang Chen glanced at her and replied nonchalantly, do as you wish. Upon hearing this, Xi Mengiao immediately opened. Her Douyin live streaming account, since Wang Chen didn’t mind, she didn’t need to consult Hiyujun. She was also a popular blogger, with millions of followers on Douyin. As soon as she started the stream, dozens of viewers entered the live room, but this group of old. Letchers, not seeing Ximangyao’s exquisite and beautiful face, quickly turned sour. Why is the host streaming a man? Turn the camera. Around, we only want to see you. Yeah, yeah, a day apart feels like three autumns. Mangyao, I miss you so much. Ximangyao secretly. Glanced at Yijun, who was anxiously focused on the marlin in the sea and couldn’t help but pout. Are you sure you want to see me? And not this man? Absolutely, we want to see you. Ximangyao nodded and turned the camera to her face. That’s more like it, why did the host go out to see? Just be obedient, or we’ll leave. Shi Mengiao flashed a charming smile at the camera. Thank you all for your concern. I’m here with Hiyu Jun and Wang Chen. So you’re with Hiyu Jun and the others. That puts my mind at ease. Wait, that’s not. Right. Wang Chen. Host, turn the camera around. Did you just say this man is Wang Chen? Don’t trick us, beautiful sister. The barrage of comments in the live room instantly increased. Wang Chen hadn’t appeared online for a while, and it turned out he had gone. Out to sea. At this moment, Xi Mengiao remained still, keeping the camera focused on herself, smiling as she addressed the live room. Aren’t you all eager to see me? You even said a day apart feels like three autumns. Today, I’ll let you see a bit more, after all, I rarely go live, and it’s hard for you to catch me. As soon as Xi Mengiao finished speaking, the live room erupted in whales. Please, host, turn the camera around. Sister Xi, please. I watched the last live stream where Wang Chen threw money and held a lottery eight. Hundred times, I definitely didn’t mistake him. I just want to see the real person. I bet 10 packs of spicy strips that this is just. An ordinary fisherman. Turn the camera, and I’ll send you rockets immediately. Sister, don’t make me kneel and beg you. Let me see. My idol. As the heat of the live stream increased, the number of fans entering surpassed 3,000. Newcomers, seeing the barrage, were puzzled. Many who couldn’t plead successfully turned to threats, if you don’t turn the camera, I’ll unfollow. New friends, feel free to cancel your follow. But Xi Mengiao remained unmoved. Instead, she turned the camera to showcase the luxurious facilities. Inside the yacht, giving the fans a taste of the high life. The fans were parched. Realizing that threats wouldn’t work, they resorted. To bribery. A level 48 big shot, who eats cilantro old woman, just say it, what gift will it take to turn the camera around? Ximingya’s face darkened instantly, stomping her foot in anger, unless I get 10 sports cars today, you won’t see your idol. It seemed the earlier shout of beautiful sister came from this who eats cilantro account. The change in attitude was too swift. You. Said it, don’t go back on your word. Eat it, it’s cilantro, said the person quickly, fearing that she mangiao would change her mind. And immediately started showering gifts in the live stream. Cilantro, sports cars times 10. The boss is generous, 10 sports cars just like. That. Old woman, hurry and turn the camera around, don’t back out now, so many brothers are watching. Exactly, we’ve seen enough. Of that face, only a male god can attract me now. The one upstairs is off, brother, you smell so good, get lost. The. Barrage in the live stream began to drift in a strange direction. To satisfy your requests, Tata, this is your male god. After receiving the sports cars, Ximing Yao’s expression changed, and she smiled as she turned the camera towards Wang Chen. The marlin that Wang Chen had been dragging for a long time was nearly out of strength. Blood was seeping from its silver-blue scales. Dragged under the yacht, it was still struggling weakly. Wang Chen seized the moment, his left hand suddenly exerting force to grip the reel, the fishing. line emitting a harsh metallic screech as it operated under overload. His right hand gripped the rod like a vise, using the twisting power of his waist to pull back sharply. The entire fishing line instantly tightened like a steel cable. The marlin’s massive body was yanked out of the water, soaring into the air, and finally, its head crashed heavily onto the edge of the deck. He Yujun gasped and took a step back, afraid of being stabbed by the marlin. Ah! He Chalian and He Choshin, standing next to Wang Chen, were terrified as. They watched the marlin struggle after being dragged up, their faces pale with fear as they hid behind him. Xi Meng Yao also exclaimed. In surprise, seeing Wang Chen kneeling on one knee, effortlessly dragging the more than one meter long marlin onto the deck with one hand. Xi quickly focused her phone camera on Wang Chen. As expected of my male god, this is too impressive. Wang Xiao’s physique is just too good. I’ve never seen such a perfect body even in the gym, those pectorals, and those eight-pack abs. Aw, sisters, I’m really in love with Wang Chen. This is how it should be, streamer. When there’s something good to see, you can’t hog it all. Share it. With the sisters. And Yijun, his physique is also decent, but he’s far from Wang Xiao. At this moment, the live stream room was instantly flooded with a large number of people due to Wang Chen’s appearance. The system detected the frequent appearance of keywords related to Wang Chen’s name, further increasing the stream’s flow, providing ample traffic to the live stream room. In no time, the number of viewers exceeded 100,000. Streamer, I’m risking my life to give you this live stream, shouldn’t you? Click the follow button in the upper left corner? Xi Mengiao cautiously moved away from the marlin and casually said, Beautiful sister. You’re so nice, just live stream more today and there are big gifts for followers. Click first as a sign of respect. Don’t you think Wang Chen’s physique is excessively good? He lifted such a big marlin with one hand. So what? Isn’t it normal for a male god to have a bit more strength? Exactly, some men must be jealous. The marlin was still making its final struggles, its tail, fin sweeping across Wang Chen’s calf but it felt like it was brushing against reinforced concrete, completely immovable. He freed one hand to press down on the fish’s back to prevent it from struggling. With the other hand, he gathered all his strength and slammed an elbow down onto the fish’s head. The scales on the marlin’s head shattered instantly, scattering everywhere and the entire fish gradually went limp on the teak floor. It stopped moving. It was directly killed by the blow. The staff and bodyguards nearby, who were ready. to hell, were stunned. They stood frozen in place. This was a fish weighing over a hundred pounds, usually, several people couldn’t hold it down, let alone kill it outright, yet Wangchen completed all of this with such ease. It was as if he had accomplished something. Trivial. The live stream room recorded the entire scene that had just unfolded, leaving the netizens astonished, their mouths agape in disbelief. Didn’t say that Wangchen has practiced before, this is too impressive. Sisters, I love him even more, my idol is so manly. So reassuring, this is a real man. Am I the only one noticing this poor marlin? It should be living freely in the ocean, yet it was. Cruelly killed. Yeah, so pitiful. Ximangyao saw that the topic in the live stream was off and spoke up to change the subject. Hiyujun ran up close, confirmed that the marlin was dead, and gave Wangchen a thumbs up, laughing, you’re amazing, brother. This strength. Of yours surpasses all the bodyguards I brought. He carefully measured the fish in front of him, incredulously saying, this fish. Plus its mouth, must be over two meters long. The bodyguards who rushed over upon hearing the news felt a bit awkward and silently retreated to the back, remaining quiet. Wang Chen reached out and with a crack sound, pried the fish’s mouth off. He held it in his hand and examined it closely. The marlin’s long bill was like a sharp sword, truly deserving of its title as the ocean killer. Then he looked at the marlin’s massive body and turned to Hiyujun, asking, how’s the meat of this marlin? Tastes good, can be grilled or made into sashimi, Hiyujun replied. Wang Chen nodded, pointing at the marlin, then let the chef come up and prepare it, let’s have a. Barbecue. Sure, He Yu Jun nodded, waving for someone to take the fish to the kitchen for the chef to prepare. Young master Wang is. Simply a tyrant in the world. The waitstaff began to tidy up the chaotic scene, and a young waitress looked at Wang Chen with admiration. This marlin, judging by its quality, can sell for at least 30,000, one can only say Wang Chen is really lucky. Is this the. Life of a rich second generation? A fish worth several tens of thousands, just like that. I’m drooling with envy, the only seafood I’ve ever had is shrimp, I don’t even know what marlin tastes like. If I caught a marlin, I would definitely choose to sell it. The viewers in the live stream saw someone explaining that this fish was worth over 30,000 and were quite envious. One can only say that the lives of the wealthy are so simple and unadorned. The value of what they eat is already half a year’s salary for an ordinary person. After tidying up the scene, Wang Chan and He Yu Jun picked up their fishing rods again. He Chao Lian and He Chaoxin also. found two fishing rods and sat down next to Wang Chen, fishing along with him. Since they were out at sea, the wind was strong and the waves were high. Even if they made a lot of noise on the yacht’s deck, it wouldn’t affect the fish biting. Shi Meng Yao directly sat next to Yi Yu Jun and Wang Chen, propping her phone on a selfie stick in front of her. Wang Chen noticed the barrage and the live stream was flying by quickly and realized something was off. Many people were starting to create a rhythm, explaining what this netizen said is. Right, I really haven’t eaten marlin. I truly don’t know if it’s good or not. In the live stream, the account last night stars. Sent a barrage, so pretentious, with so much money, you must have eaten Marlon, why are you pretending here? Yeah, so pretentious. Who in the country doesn’t know young master Wang is a top rich second generation, still pretending in front of us that he hasn’t. Eaten Marlon. What a joke. Wang Chen shook his head and calmly said, I really haven’t eaten it, am I supposed to lie to you? There are all kinds of people online, and Wang Chen wasn’t going to get angry with them. This account was clearly trying to stir up trouble. inciting resentment against the rich wanting to guide online information to attack him but most netizens understood that a top rich second generation like wang chen wouldn’t pretend about such trivial matters especially over a fish worth a few tens of thousands wang chen had far too many things to boast about a fish worth a few tens of thousands wasn’t worth him lying about however the barrage in the live stream had many more accusations directed at wang chen now those who previously thought that wang chen shouldn’t have killed The marlin all jumped out, accusing him of lacking compassion, saying that such a precious marlin could be killed just like that. As a rich, second generation, he didn’t lack money and could easily eat other food, why did he have to cruelly kill a fish? Wang Chen, as a rich, second generation, should set an example, and so on, they said a lot. Wang Chen frowned as he listened and explained, first of all, I was born in Rong province, surrounded by mountains, and our food culture doesn’t include seafood, let alone eating marlin. Secondly, I personally don’t really like seafood, so there’s no need to deceive you. And for those saying that I shouldn’t have killed this fish, aren’t you being a bit too nosy? Don’t you eat meat? Beef, lamb, pork, chicken, duck and goose are all lives when you eat them. Don’t say they taste good. The barrage in the live stream became increasingly intense. Netizens were divided into two factions, those supporting Wang Chen said he was not hypocritical and very sincere. It’s just a fish, so what if it was killed? Moreover, people from Rome province really don’t like seafood and many locals came forward to confirm this point for Wang Chen. but on the other side, led by. Last night’s stars, they ruthlessly attacked Wang Chan and even dragged Hiyu Jun into it. Anti-rich sentiments filled the screen. As. Soon as I saw this Wang Chan, I knew he was no good, he changes women like clothes, and even the campus beauties from Dafa and Futa have. Been tricked by him. Exactly, he looks decent, but don’t be fooled by the hype online, in reality, he might be a total playboy. A playboy, a spoiled rich kid, I heard he got a young girl pregnant in the country, and Wang Chan didn’t dare to admit it, forcing the. Poor girl to jump off a building to commit suicide. Ha, you guys just found out? As far as I know, he came abroad to avoid trouble. Hiyujun is no good either. A person like Wangchen even introduced his sister to him. What a disgrace. Watch your words, speaking. Recklessly can lead to legal consequences. Ximangyao saw that the live stream had completely turned into a gathering place for trolls and quickly instructed the moderators to mute the comments. However, the effect wasn’t very good. Just as one batch of accounts was muted, another batch popped up. The livestream’s traffic surged to over a million, and this was still in the afternoon, it was. Simply outrageous. Many people who were unaware of the truth entered the livestream, saw the verbal battle, and joined in the fray. But. The voices condemning Wang Chen grew louder. In Hua Gua, there are simply too many people who resent the rich, and with some waving the. Banner of animal protection, the situation became even more one-sided. The discourse became increasingly uncontrollable. Wang Chen, do. You want me to shut down the livestream? Xi Mengiao asked as she saw the situation spiraling out of control. He Yujun also noticed. The situation in the live stream and said, these people are being unreasonable, it’s already impossible to explain. Why don’t we just. Shut down the live stream? It will be fine in a few days. He Chaoling and He Chaoxin, the two sisters, even proactively stepped in. Front of the camera to help explain for Wang Chan and He Yujun. But the surging and agitated emotions had already been stirred up. It. Wouldn’t be so easy to dissipate. They even directly scolded He Chaoling and He Chaoxin. For a few stinky bucks in Wang Chen’s hands. Knowing he already has a girlfriend, you still come up to him. If it weren’t for you being close to him, Wang Chen would definitely be my boyfriend. Just based on your looks, you don’t even compare to one tenth of me. It’s these rich people who waste resources. And then blame us poor people for global warming, making us pay for their actions. By the way, aren’t you being too extreme? It’s just. A fish, does it really matter? Having female feminists is one thing, but now there’s even a male feminist, it’s simply ridiculous. The people in the live stream were in a chaotic battle of words. Many people didn’t know what was going on and joined the fight, launching attacks against a few individuals, some scattered normal comments were drowned in the wave of bullet comments. Wang Chen frowned and stopped Xi Mengiao, who was about to close the live stream. I’m sorry, if I had known, I wouldn’t have gone live. Xi Mengiao felt frustrated and tearful for causing such a huge mess. She desperately tried to explain to the netizens if it weren’t for her going live. Wang Chan and He Yu Jun wouldn’t have been attacked online, it was all her fault. Wang Chan looked at the bullet comments in the live stream, a flicker of anger crossing his face. But he didn’t intend to blame Xi Meng Yao. The comments in the live stream were clearly orchestrated by someone behind the scenes, specifically targeting him. It had nothing to do with Xi Meng Yao. He didn’t want to know the motives of those behind it, but he knew that whether the people behind it were organized or unintentional, he would have to pay the price. Don’t mind them, He Yu Jun, your fishing rod has a catch. Wengchen took out his phone and sent a message to Wang Jianguo, then said something to He Yujun. He Yujun, who was arguing with the netizens in the live stream, turned to look at the bait area, where the line on the fishing rod was being pulled forward. Clearly, a greedy fish had already taken the bait. They’re all talking about you, still. Attacking me online, and we’ve all been cursed to death, and you’re here worrying about fish? He Yujun pointed at his phone, his face full of anger, clearly infuriated by the foolish netizens. Wangchen calmly pulled He Chalian’s hand, letting her sit on his lap. He Chalian, confused, asked, Brother Wangchen, aren’t you angry? Wait. Wangchen smiled slightly and gently kissed her red lips. Don’t let these people ruin the good mood. Mum. He Chalian was initially very angry, but under Wangchen’s calm tone, she gradually calmed down. Seeing Wangchen say this, He Yujun also began to regain his composure. Wangchen must have his own plans for saying this. He picked up his fishing rod and started to reel in the fish, no longer paying attention to the negative comments in the live stream. The words belong to them, they can say what they want, and Hiyujun couldn’t care less. The few of them gradually returned to their previous demeanor. Ximenyao initially wanted to close the live stream, but at Wang Chen’s request, she continued to point the camera at him. The bullet comments in the live stream were simply beyond what a person could say, all the filth and malice in the world were vividly displayed at this moment, fully revealing the evil in human nature. Wang Chen merely glanced at it and then lost interest, if one does something wrong, they must pay the price. Let them be arrogant for a while longer. Hiyu Jun took a deep breath, gripping the fishing rod firmly with both hands, trying to stabilize the constantly tugging fishing line. Wang Chen noticed the commotion and directly opened his perspective eye to take a look. It turned out that the fish Hiyu Jun had caught was a grouper, and true to its carnivorous nature, it erupted with incredible strength after being hooked, the fishing line taught and making a ziz sound, as if it would snap at any moment. Hiyujun leaned back his feet firmly planted on the deck using his weight to counter the pull of the grouper. But this fish seemed to be quite large he was using all his strength just to hold on. This fish is really strong. Hiyujun gritted his teeth, the muscles in his arms bulging from the effort. He didn’t dare to recklessly reel in the line so he had to use the technique of playing the fish, letting out and reeling in the line to exhaust the grouper’s stamina. Whenever the grouper suddenly surged to escape, he would appropriately let out lying, keeping it taut but not breaking. And when the grouper paused for a moment, he would quickly turn the reel to pull in some line. Wang Chen watched from the side, feeling quite impressed with Hiyajuan’s fishing skills, and didn’t forget to offer advice. Yes, just hold steady. It’s struggling right now. Don’t force it. Wait until it’s a bit more tired. Then we can pull it up. At this moment, on the surface of the sea, the struggle of the grouper caused the waves to surge. The once calm sea now churned into a murky mess, and from time to time, the massive body of the grouper could be seen flashing beneath the water, splashing up large sprays. The contest between Hee-Yoo Jun and the grouper lasted for quite a while and the grouper’s struggles gradually weakened. Hee-Yoo Jun sensed the moment had come, his eyes sharpened, and his hands quickly turned the reel, reeling in the fishing line rapidly, bringing the grouper’s figure closer and closer. Finally, under the tense gaze of the crowd, a grouper nearly half a meter long broke. The surface. Its body was a brownish-green, covered in black spots, and its large fins flailed weakly. In the glow of the setting sun, its scales shimmered with a faint light. Wow, what a big grouper. He Chalian exclaimed excitedly, standing up from Wang Chen’s lap to, look at the sea. He Chaoxin and Xi Mengiao also gathered around, their eyes filled with surprise. He Yujun wore a proud expression as, he struggled to drag the grouper onto the deck, the fish flopping around and making dull thuds on the deck. The grouper was thrashing, vigorously on the deck. It was only then that they realized this fish was not just half a meter long, it was nearly a meter. He Yujun, wiped the sweat from his face and laughed, today’s luck is really good, this grouper will definitely be especially delicious when steamed. we’ll steam it in a bit he chow xin clapped her hands in cheer a nearby waiter approached the three ready to control the flailing grouper but this fish was full of energy it struggled continuously and just removing the hook from its mouth took quite a bit of effort wang chin nearly glanced at the barrage of comments in the live stream where people were spouting nonsense about killing he scoffed and said let me help you no need wang xiao the waiter had just finished speaking when he saw wang chin pick up the swordfish bill that had been set aside and throw it directly at them They hadn’t even reacted when the spear-like swordfish bill plunged sharply into the grouper’s forehead, blood immediately gushing out. The grouper instantly stopped struggling. Ah! Shi Mengiao was startled. By Wang Chen’s action, her hand holding the phone for the live stream trembling. The viewers in the live stream saw Wang Chen kill the fish again and were surprisingly furious considering his action a provocation. Every fish is an important link in the ecological. Shane, you must be insane. Humanity’s endless slaughter is breaking the balance of the ocean’s ecosystem. Do you know how much water a mature fish can purify and how many microorganisms it can sustain? This kind of violent live streaming is advertising crime. Fish have pain receptors. Their struggles and convulsions when being cut open are no different from a human’s reaction to torture. You executioner in front of the screen. How dare you use innocent lives to attract attention? This bloody scene makes me physically uncomfortable. Animals are not props for human amusement, your morbid curiosity is fueling society’s indifference to life. Please, platform. Ban this account. Ban Wang Chen across the internet. Vegetarians prove through action that humanity can survive without killing, yet. They promote a barbaric survival of the fittest worldview. Eating vegetarian is not just a personal choice, it is a powerful action. Against species extinction. Data shows that every fish eaten accelerates the destruction of the earth. Hiyu Jun leaned closer. To the camera, frowning at a glance. He instructed the waiter to quickly take the grouper away. Then he said to Wang Chen, these people. Fila, their language logic and viewpoints don’t seem like those of Hua Gua people. It sounds like. He Yujun hesitated. Wang. Chen smiled and said, do you think the enemy comes from abroad? Yes. Environmentalism, vegetarianism, animal protection, this. Rhetoric is just like that of those western lunatics, it’s the kind of extreme ideology that only extremists have. He Yujun was quite. certain about his guess and turned to wang chen asking did you offend any western powers i shouldn’t have wang chen pondered for a moment and slowly shook his head he had thought this force came from within the country wondering who was secretly dealing with him now it seemed the enemy was from abroad this was interesting in his previous life and now the farthest he had traveled abroad was to the high seas for the christie’s auction where he had snatched back a few national treasures from several japanese he hadn’t offended anyone else could it be those japanese who were behind this But that seemed unlikely, such a subtle form of retaliation, like guiding public opinion, felt too weak. This didn’t seem like the style of those little Japanese devils. But apart from that, he hadn’t offended anyone else. Those he had conflicts with were either sent to prison to serve their time or scared out of their wits. This matter was becoming intriguing, but Wang Chen decided not to dwell on it any longer. There was no point in just thinking about it here. He would find out what was going on soon enough. Wang Chen continued to fish quietly. On the yacht’s deck, it suddenly fell. Silent, everyone stopped paying attention to the live stream, chatting and fishing, enjoying the cool sea breeze. The catch was decent. With Wang Chan and Hiyu Jun both reeling in several fish. Bass. Mackerel. Squid. Eels. A hodgepodge of fish kept coming up, filling. Their nets. This was the charm of sea fishing. The vast ocean harbored countless creatures, and you never knew what you might catch. Wang Chan gradually began to appreciate the allure of sea fishing. Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of their haul, Wang Chan’s. Fishing rod suddenly dipped sharply, a powerful pull surged through it, and he almost lost grip of the rod. This fish has some strength. Wang Chen’s eyes sharpened, instantly realizing he had hooked something big. He quickly stood up, gripping the rod tightly with both hands, his feet firmly planted, channeling all his strength into his arms, trying to counter the unknown force beneath the water. Wang Chen, what did you catch? That’s quite a commotion. He Yujun put down the base he had just caught and hurried over, his face filled. With excitement and curiosity. Judging by the movement on the water from his past experience, this fish must weigh at least 300 pounds, and that was just his guess. Given the splashes, it might be even more. Meanwhile, the live stream was still filled with insults directed at Wang Chen. This bizarre scene was quite unusual. In Hua Gua, while the online arguments could be fierce, when it came to something like this, the curiosity of onlookers was enough to silence everyone. Wang Chen had clearly hooked an unknown giant from the depths, yet no one seemed to care, which was truly strange. We’ll find out when I reel it in. Wang Chen slowly exerted force, beginning a contest with the giant creature in the water. The quality of this fishing rod was indeed impressive, it was worthy of its brand, solid and reliable. The thousands of pounds of force only bent the rod without any other quality issues, allowing Wang Chen to confidently apply more strength. As he exerted nearly 70% of his strength, he finally subdued the unknown creature. He could feel that this fish was entirely different from the ones he had caught before, the pull felt as if it came from a deep -sea behemoth. Each struggle infused with immense power. If it weren’t for his body being enhanced by the attributes, Hiyu Jun would have been thrown off long ago. He slowly let out the line, allowing the fish to tire itself while keeping a close eye on the fishing line, tracking the unknown creature that was continuously thrashing about. Under his watchful gaze.At the end of the fishing line was a deep blue giant. Fish, measuring a full 4 meters in length, with a dark blue back, a silvery white belly,

Hi
