Five minutes later, Su Chuqing arrived.
"Sorry, collecting rent is exhausting."
Su Chuqing complained, saying collecting rent was really tiring.
"Yeah."
Chu Chen completely agreed. He only collected rent from one street, but Su Chuqing had to collect from ten buildings. It was too much work.
After spending half the day with Su Chuqing, Chu Chen waited outside the mall while Su Chuqing went to get the car. She wanted to take Chu Chen to a special restaurant.
"Is it him?"
Just then, a young man also walked out of the mall, and he paused when he saw Chu Chen.
This young man was none other than the one who had earlier reprimanded Chu Chen to impress a beautiful woman.
He had tried to step on Chu Chen to curry the woman's favor, but the attempt backfired and resulted in the woman rebuking him harshly, humiliating him in front of countless people.
"I need to regain my dignity."
Yuan Liangzhe resolved in his heart and walked toward Chu Chen.
"Hey brother, you waiting for a car too?"
Glancing at Yuan Liangzhe, Chu Chen nodded.
"I'm also waiting for a car, but it's my girlfriend who went to get it."
Yuan Liangzhe said, boasting a bit.
"What do you do for a living?"
"No job."
Chu Chen replied shortly.
"No job, eh? I really envy you. Unfortunately, I can only work in one of the top 500 companies in the country as a deputy manager."
Yuan Liangzhe said "humbly."
"My annual salary isn't much, just two or three hundred thousand."
Several passersby stopped and stared upon hearing this.
Two or three hundred thousand isn't much?
Seeing the envious looks from the crowd, Yuan Liangzhe felt smug.
Just as Yuan Liangzhe was about to speak again, his phone suddenly rang.
"What? Manager Ma, I've revised the plan seven times, and it still needs more changes?"
"And it has to be completed tonight?!"
Yuan Liangzhe felt completely defeated. He had been working day and night to complete this plan, only to have it continuously rejected by his superior.
Revising the plan would take at least five more days, and completing it by tonight felt impossible, worse than death.
"If it's not done, you don't need to come to work tomorrow."
The chastising voice came from the phone.
Before Yuan Liangzhe could say anything, Manager Ma hung up.
Putting away his phone, the once proud Yuan Liangzhe suddenly felt utterly hopeless.
"Why am I so unlucky? I struggled for years to become a deputy manager, yet my boss keeps pushing me, and my girlfriend always calls me useless."
Yuan Liangzhe complained.
Hearing this, the people around started gossiping.
Chu Chen also said,
"Actually, the most important thing in life is to be true to yourself and do what you want. That's the real joy."
"I once had a job I didn't like either, where my boss marginalized me, so I quit. Now I'm doing just fine."
Before he obtained the system, Chu Chen had worked part-time, but his boss targeted him, so he quit.
"Hmm?"
Hearing Chu Chen's words, Yuan Liangzhe suddenly felt enlightened:
"Yeah, life is short. You have to live freely, not be confined."
"To hell with the job, to hell with the girlfriend."
Thinking it through, Yuan Liangzhe picked up his phone and dialed Manager Ma:
"You garbage, useless baldy, screw you! I quit!"
After venting, Yuan Liangzhe felt incredibly relieved.
Putting down the phone, he saw his girlfriend parking the car. Watching her, he suddenly remembered all the times she scolded and even abused him.
"Yang Xi, I'm breaking up with you!"
Yuan Liangzhe shouted at his girlfriend in the car.
"That felt great, amazing!"
Yuan Liangzhe took a deep breath, feeling exceptionally refreshed.
"So, what happened after you quit?"
Yuan Liangzhe asked curiously.
"After quitting?"
"I moved into Yuetan Garden."
Chu Chen said calmly.
Hearing this, Yuan Liangzhe was stunned.
Yuetan Garden, isn't that a famous villa area in Jiangzhou?
So this guy is a rich second generation?
"Chu Chen, let's go."
While Yuan Liangzhe was dumbfounded, a striking red Lamborghini pulled up in front of Chu Chen.
Under Yuan Liangzhe's blank stare, Chu Chen got into the car and drove away with Su Chuqing.
"A top-tier beauty in a Lamborghini?"
Yuan Liangzhe's mind was blown!
He really was a rich second generation, and his girlfriend was a wealthy beauty!
"No, wait, something's wrong!"
Yuan Liangzhe suddenly thought of something terrible.
Chu Chen was a rich second generation who could quit his job at will, with billions in family wealth waiting for him.
But he was different!
If he quit, he would have nothing.
"Yuan Liangzhe, I've told you before, I don't do breakups, only widowhood!"
At this moment, Yuan Liangzhe's girlfriend Yang Xi reacted, jumping out of the car and storming over.
Yang Xi was a boxing coach, after all!
"Didn't you want to break up? I'll fulfill your wish!"
Saying this, Yang Xi punched Yuan Liangzhe.
"No..."
Yuan Liangzhe screamed as he fell to the ground.
...
Su Chuqing invited Chu Chen to a meal, and they chatted over food.
"I'm planning to go to the beach with my girlfriends in a few days. I haven't gone swimming in so long."
Jiangzhou was a coastal city with beautiful seaside views.
"Hmm, right, Chu Chen, do you want to join us?"
Su Chuqing asked Chu Chen coquettishly.
"The beach, let me think."
Chu Chen mused.
Should he go or not?
Suddenly, a system notification sounded.
[Check-in Task]
[Task Content: Go to Eastern Hanhai Villa Area to check in. Task Duration: 2 days]
[Check-in Reward: Eastern Hanhai No.1 Sea View Villa (known as the best sea view villa in Jiangzhou)]
"Sea view villa?"
"And at Eastern Hanhai Villa area?"
Chu Chen asked in surprise.
Chu Chen already had a villa to live in, but a sea view villa for leisure and entertainment wouldn't be bad.
Sea view villas were incredibly comfortable.
"Of course I'll go if I can be with Senior Su."
Chu Chen nodded.
The villa didn't matter; what mattered was having fun with Senior Su.
"That's wonderful."
Hearing Chu Chen agree, Su Chuqing was overjoyed.
Although they had agreed not to bring boyfriends or anyone else,
hearing Chu Chen agree made Su Chuqing forget all prior arrangements.
Forgetting friendships for love was understandable.
"We could rent a sea view villa for a few days of fun."
Su Chuqing started planning.
"No need for that. We can stay at my villa."
Chu Chen said.
Once he checked in at Eastern Hanhai, the No.1 villa would be his, so renting was unnecessary.
"You have a sea view villa? Where?"
"Eastern Hanhai No.1 Villa."
"What?"
Su Chuqing was startled.
Eastern Hanhai was famous as the best sea view villa area in Jiangzhou, with each villa worth over a hundred million!
The No.1 Villa at Eastern Hanhai was even more astonishing!
