Wang Dahe froze. "Secretary Jiang, what are you doing here?"
Given Secretary Jiang's status, what was she doing at a street-side food stall?
"It's like this," Jiang Qing replied with a faint smile. "I’m here on Boss Su's orders to deliver gifts to Young Master Wang and Young Master Luo."
"Gifts?"
Wang Dahe stared at the car keys in Jiang Qing's hand, then shifted his gaze to the two Porsches parked behind her.
An absurd thought popped into his head.
Could these two cars really be the gifts Boss Su was giving them?
Wang Dahe felt like he’d stumbled onto the truth.
He swallowed hard. "Secretary Jiang, may I ask what gifts Boss Su is giving Luo Yuan and me?"
Jiang Qing took out two car keys and placed them in Wang Dahe and Luo Yuan’s hands respectively.
Wang Dahe became even more certain of his suspicion and couldn’t help but ask, "Secretary Jiang, are these two Porsches the gifts you’re talking about?"
"Correct." Jiang Qing nodded with a smile. "Boss Su is very grateful for how you’ve looked after Young Master Lin at school. This is her way of thanking you."
Wang Dahe: "!!!"
It was exactly as he’d guessed!
The gifts really were Porsches!
Luo Yuan’s pupils constricted sharply upon hearing Jiang Qing’s words.
Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!
Handing out Porsches just like that—wasn’t this way too extravagant?
Snapping out of his daze, Luo Yuan scratched the back of his head sheepishly. "Secretary Jiang, isn’t a Porsche a bit too expensive?"
"Not at all. Each of these only costs a little over seven million. To Boss Su, it’s just like spending a few thousand." Jiang Qing chuckled.
Luo Yuan choked.
True, Su Corporation was worth trillions. This amount of money meant nothing to Boss Su.
Jiang Qing spoke again, "Gentlemen, I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t disturb you further."
With that, she left, leaving behind a dazed Wang Dahe and Luo Yuan.
Wang Dahe stretched out his arm. "Luo Yuan, pinch me. Am I dreaming?"
Luo Yuan obediently obliged, giving Wang Dahe’s arm a hard twist.
"Ow—!" Wang Dahe let out a pained yelp. "That hurt like hell!"
"Luo Yuan, you actually pinched me?"
Luo Yuan looked at him in confusion. "Didn’t you ask me to?"
Besides, how else were they supposed to check if this was real?
Wang Dahe was speechless.
But he quickly forgot about Luo Yuan’s pinch as he excitedly ran over to stroke the sleek black Porsche.
Even now, it felt surreal.
Was this car really his?
Luo Yuan couldn’t resist asking, "Is Boss Su always this generous?" Handing out two Porsches in one go?
"She’s always been like this. Last time Xuan and I went shopping, she gave me an eight-million-yuan watch. And just because I called her ‘sister-in-law’ once, she transferred a hundred grand into my account," Wang Dahe said.
Luo Yuan could only regret not befriending Lin Xuan sooner.
At the same time, he felt a surge of relief.
Thankfully, after seeing Qin Ruoyao’s true colors, he’d wised up and stopped antagonizing Lin Xuan, instead becoming his friend.
Otherwise, given Lin Xuan’s influence and Boss Su’s fiercely protective nature, his fate would’ve been disastrous.
"Dahe, why did Boss Su suddenly decide to give us cars?" Luo Yuan was baffled.
Wang Dahe frowned in thought.
Lin Xuan hadn’t been at school lately, and they hadn’t interacted with Boss Su either. It wasn’t like her to just randomly gift them cars on a whim.
Unless… it had something to do with today’s basketball game…
"I’ve got it!" Wang Dahe declared confidently. "It must be because we sent Boss Su that basketball video! She saw Xuan in it, got happy, and decided to reward us with cars!"
Luo Yuan blinked. "That’s it?"
Wang Dahe nodded. "That’s probably the reason."
Otherwise, he couldn’t think of anything else that would prompt Boss Su to give them cars out of the blue.
Luo Yuan mused, "Dahe, does this count as ‘when one man gets the Dao, even his dogs and chickens ascend to heaven’?"
"Pretty much."
Wang Dahe nodded.
With someone like Boss Su, even the scraps from her fingertips would set them up for life.
Luo Yuan rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Dahe, I think we should work harder to cling to Boss Su’s coattails."
Wang Dahe shook his head. "No, no need to cling to Boss Su."
Luo Yuan gave him a puzzled look.
Wang Dahe continued, "Boss Su treasures Xuan so much. We just need to stick close to Xuan."
Luo Yuan nodded in agreement.
The food stall was right across from Shangqing University, so most of its customers were students.
News of Wang Dahe and Luo Yuan receiving Porsches from Su Hua spread like wildfire on the university forum.
[Breaking News! Wang Dahe and Luo Yuan gifted brand-new Porsches worth over seven million by Boss Su!]
The comments section was flooded with "Holy crap!"
Many even tagged Lin Xuan directly.
[Lin Xuan, do you still need brothers? I’d go through fire and water for you!]
The envy was palpable.
A seven-million-yuan Porsche!
Damn, how many years would they have to work to earn that much?
Most of those eager to be Lin Xuan’s "brothers" were male students.
The female students at Shangqing University knew better than to try.
If Boss Su got the wrong idea—that they were using friendship as an excuse to get close to Lin Xuan—they’d be in deep trouble.
Crossing Boss Su was no joke.
To keep themselves safe, it was best to steer clear of Lin Xuan altogether.
On the forum, students continued to chime in.
[ChocolateOreo]: When will I ever meet a sugar mommy like Boss Su? No, even half as rich would do. My stomach’s weak—I need soft food.
[Another Day, Another Lin Xuan Envy Post]: When will my bro get adopted by a sugar mommy?
[Waiting for a Sugar Mommy]: I beat my bro up for three days straight, and he still won’t admit he’s being spoiled by a sugar mommy. How do I make him confess? Urgent, please advise.
Lin Xuan, unaware of the uproar at Shangqing University, was preoccupied with meeting Jiang Yutong.
He wanted to collaborate with her.
He’d provide the formulas for cosmetics and skincare products; she’d handle the business side.
Together, they’d build a world-renowned beauty brand.
He was sure they’d make a fortune.
Lin Xuan hacked into Jiang Yutong’s phone and installed a hidden tracking app.
He checked the location on his screen.
The airport?
Wait—
A memory from his past life suddenly surfaced.
Jiang Yutong had her face slashed and disfigured at a restaurant near the airport.
world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family."

Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
