Let's Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 348: Chapter 348: Glory From Below (25)

When Jiang Liang opened the door, Chuzheng still hadn’t let go of him. He took a slight breath and turned the key.

Chuzheng entered the apartment with audacious grandeur.

She casually threw the documents onto the table, “Has Xia Mufan not come by recently?”

Jiang Liang stood in the living room but seemed like a guest, not knowing where to place his hands and feet, “He… he’s been a little busy.”

“Have you eaten yet?”

Jiang Liang shook his head.

Chuzheng took out her phone to order takeout and asked him, “What were you doing outside?”

Instead of staying at home properly, you run into a pervert the moment you go out. Isn’t that a loss?

“I… was buying computer parts.”

“Can’t you buy them online?”

“That… wasn’t available.”

Chuzheng looked up at him, finding it slightly difficult to tilt her head, “Come over and sit down.”

Jiang Liang clenched and unclenched his fists, slowly walked over, and sat down on the edge.

“What did that person say to you just now?” Chuzheng felt it necessary to ask properly.

Jiang Liang shook his head.

The flaxen hair swayed with his movement. The slight curl at the ends complemented the young man’s handsome features, making him look like a delicate doll in a display window.

Chuzheng stared at his hair, then suddenly reached out and pressed down on the top of his head.

Chuzheng’s expression became stern.

Soft, so soft!

Jiang Liang looked at her with slightly alarmed eyes, a deep blue expanse, clear and translucent.

Chuzheng: “…”

Just touching the hair, is it necessary to look so bullied?

Just now, I saved you from walking down the path of a pervert!

What’s wrong with taking a little interest?

With that thought, Chuzheng felt much more justified.

Jiang Liang was not accustomed to this, but he remembered that she had said before she liked soft hair.

So, was his hair soft?

Did she like it or not?

Jiang Liang was filled with trepidation.

After rubbing his hair twice and seeing Jiang Liang’s almost defensive look, Chuzheng withdrew her hand, “Eat the takeout yourself when it arrives.”

I won’t touch it anymore, won’t touch it. If I make him cry by touching it, what if he doesn’t let me touch it next time? I have to think about the future.

With the pressure from her touch gone, Jiang Liang became more anxious, still wondering if she was satisfied when he heard Chuzheng say this.

“You… You’re not eating?”

“I’ve already eaten.” Chuzheng got up, ready to leave.

“…”

Jiang Liang couldn’t find the words to ask her to stay and could only watch as Chuzheng left.

“Your… your things.” Jiang Liang called out to Chuzheng.

He brought her things to her, his gaze falling on the logo and name on the documents.

“This… is Peerless Wind and Cloud?” Jiang Liang felt a twinge of nervousness.

“Hmm.” She had gone to look for some information today.

The Bastard had told her to buy a company, but she found out this company was a subsidiary, and they had no intention of selling. Now she had to start planning to buy the entire group.

“You… You play too?” Jiang Liang of course knew that Chuzheng played, but now he wanted to tell her that he played too.

“Hmm.”

Chuzheng nodded, taking the documents from him.

“I… I also play,” Jiang Liang said softly.

He used his real name, so she should be able to recognize it, right?

“Hmm.” I know you play.

“…” Jiang Liang suddenly didn’t know how to continue the conversation.

Chuzheng didn’t know what Jiang Liang wanted to say to her and waited patiently.

However, Jiang Liang had nothing more to say, and the two of them stood there at the doorway.

“Then I’ll go back now.” Chuzheng was very straightforward in breaking the silence.

Jiang Liang fiddled with the hem of his clothes and gave a barely perceptible nod of his head.

It wasn’t until the door on Chuzheng’s side closed that Jiang Liang’s face showed a mix of three parts distress and seven parts regret.

“Jiang Liang, you pig.”

“Why are you cursing yourself?” Xia Mufan patted his shoulder, “How did you know I was coming, waiting for me here specially?”

Jiang Liang: “…”

Jiang Liang turned and went back inside.

Xia Mufan didn’t mind and closed the door behind him with a chuckle.

Chuzheng pulled out the business card from the documents.

Moments later, she pressed it onto the table surface.

He took out his phone and sent a text message.

——Help me check someone out.

——Boss, who are we checking?

——Huo Xuyang.

——Boss, just giving me a name isn’t useful, do you have a photo, phone number, or something like an email?

Chuzheng sent over the phone number from the business card.

Two days later, Chuzheng received the information sent by the other party.

Huo Xuyang.

Director of Yiyang Group.

Graduated from a prestigious foreign university, young and promising, at a young age he is already a director of a group…

Quite a bit of information about Huo Xuyang could be found online.

However, inside this set of information, there were many more private details.

Huo Xuyang kept a very regular routine; apart from company schedules, he had almost no other activities.

It seemed there was no problem.

But…

It was too clean.

How could a normal person only have work-related activities on their electronic devices, with not a single sign of personal activities?

Like opening a web page, watching a movie, listening to music…

Huo Xuyang had none of that.

Sometimes being too clean is also an anomaly.

——Is there nothing else?

——That’s it, this person is very cautious about privacy, there’s nothing but work on his computer.

——Could there be other devices?

——There might be, but I haven’t found any yet.

——Keep an eye on him and let me know if there’s news.

Chuzheng put down the phone.

Working hard at being a good person today too!

Chuzheng felt that Huo Xuyang wouldn’t give up so easily; the Good Person Card was still very risky.

[World] I’m Super Cute: Hasn’t God of Wealth been particularly unlucky lately?

[World] Log in Right After Class: Who has God of Wealth offended this time?

[World] Prince Turned Silly: Can’t say, can’t say.

[World] Blossoming Elegance: Can’t say who?

[World] I’m Super Cute: Don’t talk nonsense; if the big shot wanted to bother him, would he need to sneak around?

Chuzheng logged on and saw this message.

This talk, well—I’m rather good at it.

[World] Prince Turned Silly: See, you’re doubting yourself; otherwise, how would you know who I’m talking about.

[World] Melon Seller Granny: Serves him right.

[World] Melon Seller Granny: Why hasn’t Sanyue Qinghuan been with Wu Hen lately?

Yue Wuheng was being targeted, which meant that being with Sanyue Qinghuan would implicate her too, so why would Sanyue Qinghuan be willing to stick with him.

Chuzheng was engrossed in reading when suddenly, she received a private message from Jiang Liang.

[Private Chat] Jiang Liang: Going for the next book?

[Private Chat] Number One on the Rich List: No.

[Private Chat] Jiang Liang: I’ll give you some experience points.

[Private Chat] Number One on the Rich List: Okay.

Experience points to sponge off, why not, might as well take advantage of them. @@novelbin@@

Jiang Liang invited Chuzheng to the team.

Today, it seemed that none of the people Jiang Liang knew were around; he had casually called out to people outside the instance.

[Team] Pomelo: Hello everyone, I’m Pomelo, please take care of me.

[Team] Dream God: Pomelo.

[Team] Pomelo: Master.

[Team] Master of Courting Death: I’m so lucky today, can’t believe I’m seeing the big shot, I’m going to buy a lottery ticket, soak up some of the God of Wealth’s good fortune!!

[Team] Jiang Liang: Try to survive this instance first.

[Team] Master of Courting Death: …Jiang Liang, do you know why nobody calls you God?

[Team] Jiang Liang: They probably think the title ‘God’ doesn’t fit me well enough.

[Team] Master of Courting Death: …

Suddenly, I kind of want to leave the team.

[Team] Pomelo: Master, is this Jiang Liang really that amazing?

[Team] Dream God: Don’t talk nonsense.

Pomelo’s account level wasn’t low, but she seemed like a newbie, unclear if it was someone else’s account or one that was bought.

Once they entered the instance, Chuzheng confirmed that this Pomelo was indeed a complete newbie.
