That evening, when Chu Chen and Su Chuqing were about to return to Villa No. 1, Mengmeng and Xiaomin eagerly asked Chu Chen to take them along.
Chu Chen agreed.
Hearing this, Zhou Quanhao's remaining two friends looked envious.
Seeing this, Chu Chen greeted Manager Li to open Villa No. 9 and let them stay there.
"Brother Chen, you're awesome!"
"Brother Chen, I really admire you to the point of prostration."
Zhou Quanhao's two friends quickly expressed their gratitude.
They also wanted to spend a night in the villa area of Shuitian Villa, knowing that even their elders hadn't experienced it.
"Looking handsome makes you generous!"
The two praised Chu Chen.
"If there's anything in the future, just let me know, Brother Chen."
"Yes, Brother Chen, though we're spoiled brats, our families still have some connections and influence. If you ever need anything, just give us a heads up."
The two earnestly assured.
Chu Chen ignored Zhou Quanhao and led Su Chuqing, Mengmeng, and the others to Villa No. 1.
"Brother Hao, sorry about tonight."
After saying this to Zhou Quanhao, his last two allies rushed to Villa No. 9.
"Traitors, all traitors!!!"
Zhou Quanhao furiously stomped his feet.
How long had it been? All his allies had betrayed him.
Damn it!
The next day, the group spent the morning playing at Shuitian Villa.
This time, there was a dramatic shift from when they arrived, with Chu Chen becoming the center of attention. Whether it was Su Chuqing or Zhou Quanhao's friends, they all surrounded Chu Chen.
Zhou Quanhao seemed like a loner, pitifully.
In the afternoon, the group left Shuitian Villa.
Finally about to leave this cursed place, Zhou Quanhao felt his spirits lift.
Jiangzhou, that was his turf.
Zhou Quanhao planned to have his day, to teach Chu Chen a lesson.
No matter how handsome Chu Chen was, could he be richer than him?
However, before he could speak, he heard a remark.
"No need, just let Chuqing take me back to Yuetan Garden. You guys can head back."
Chu Chen declined Mengmeng and the others' offer to accompany him.
What?
Yuetan Garden?
Zhou Quanhao thought he heard wrong.
"Brother Chen lives in Yuetan Garden, that's impressive!"
"That is Yuetan Garden! Even the high officials and wealthy merchants of Jiangzhou aren't guaranteed a spot there."
Mengmeng and the others were equally stunned.
To them, Yuetan Garden still seemed out of reach.
They never imagined Chu Chen actually lived in Yuetan Garden!
"It's nothing special, just okay. Yuetan Garden is just so-so."
Chu Chen spoke casually.
Having seen the ultimate luxury inside Villa No. 1, Yuetan Garden seemed just average to Chu Chen now.
Yuetan Garden, just average?
Zhou Quanhao suddenly felt disheartened.
He felt utterly ashamed at this moment.
Had he really been boasting in front of a super-rich person?
Zhou Quanhao wished he could slap himself. Wasn't yesterday's incident just him voluntarily offering himself up to be humiliated?
What a disgrace!
"Brother Chen is really a hidden billionaire, so low-key!"
"It's rare to find someone as low-key as Brother Chen."
Zhou Quanhao's two friends spoke sincerely.
Not only was he handsome, but also wealthy, lucky, and humble.
In that moment, Chu Chen's image in everyone's mind became larger than life.
Especially Mengmeng and Xiaomin, the two privileged beauties were looking at Chu Chen differently, as though they wanted to latch onto him.
"We're leaving now."
Men, especially handsome men, needed to protect themselves out in the world.
Seeing the way Mengmeng looked at him, and to protect himself, Chu Chen and Su Chuqing left first.
After dropping Chu Chen at the villa, Su Chuqing left.
Su Chuqing was in a particularly good mood at that moment.
After this outing, her relationship with Chu Chen had taken a step forward, and she was close to winning him over.
"Su Chuqing, you can do it!" she encouraged herself.
"Chu Chen, you can't escape from my grasp, heh heh."
Su Chuqing cheered herself on, no longer showing any signs of the once cold and elegant campus beauty.
...
At Beixiang Pavilion, a tall beauty named Angel was helplessly facing an array of questions from relatives.
"Angel, you are twenty-four or five, it's time to get married."
"Angel, do you want your aunt to introduce you to someone?"
Faced with her relatives' "enthusiastic" concern, Angel was extremely annoyed.
If it weren't for her cousin's birthday and being forced to come by her family, she would never attend such a gathering.
"Okay, okay, I'll lay it out."
"I already have a boyfriend, auntie, you and third aunt don't need to set me up."
Finally, driven by frustration, Angel had to lie—no, it was a well-intentioned deception.
"You have a boyfriend?"
Upon hearing this, Angel's several relatives immediately perked up.
"Having a boyfriend is great. Have him come over, let auntie give him some advice."
"Yes, Angel, call him over."
"I'm also curious, what kind of guy could be our proud little Angel's boyfriend?"
Angel never imagined that after learning she had a boyfriend, these relatives didn't give up but became even more enthusiastic.
Bring the boyfriend over?
Where would she find one!
"Alright, alright."
Battered by the noise, Angel had no choice but to excuse herself for a phone call.
"Angel, don't run away. Otherwise, we'll go to your house and talk with your parents."
Her aunt warned Angel.
Due to being unwell, Angel's parents didn't attend.
"I won't run away."
Angel felt more helpless as her plan to slip away failed.
"What to do?"
"What to do?"
Walking out of the private room, Angel was anxiously pacing back and forth.
Watching the cars passing by outside, Angel suddenly thought of that divinely handsome guy—Chu Chen.
He was the only one who made her heart flutter.
With a determined heart, Angel called Chu Chen.
"Hello."
The phone connected.
Angel instantly felt nervous.
"It's me, Angel, the one who rode in your car last time."
Angel?
Chu Chen did remember Angel, the tall beauty with a model's figure whom he had met while driving for a ride-sharing service.
"Can you pick me up and take me home?"
Angel cautiously inquired.
"If it's inconvenient, then never mind."
"Where are you?"
"I'm at Beixiang Pavilion on Lianhe Road."
Chu Chen, who was out at the moment, looked it up and realized Lianhe Road wasn't far, so he agreed.
"Alright."
Why not, as he was a genuinely low-key and helpful young man?
"Thank you, really, thank you."
A smile appeared on Angel's face.
Angel thought up a suitable plan.
Have Chu Chen make a brief appearance, and before those relatives could say anything, she'd find an excuse to leave with Chu Chen immediately.
This way, she wouldn't trouble Chu Chen.
Ten minutes later, Chu Chen arrived in front of Beixiang Pavilion.
Angel called Chu Chen to come to private room 309 to pick her up. Chu Chen thought Angel might be drunk, so he went to the third floor.
Opening the door to room 309, Chu Chen was taken aback.
