Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Opening the door to the kitchen, there's a 16-square-meter room that serves as a nanny room.

This is truly the living room of the post-'90s generation, equipped with two sets of sofas, without a single table. When there are plenty of friends around, they play games at the central island. The male host's friends sit at one table, and the female host's friends at another..."

Clothed in white casual trousers and a black silk short-sleeved shirt, Zhan Bingxue spoke with indifference. As she introduced the place to several people, she observed the ponytail girl's expression. Seeing that she had her eyes wide open the entire time, Bingxue could tell that the carefully selected mansion had likely met with her approval.

"This fireplace is really beautiful, and the curvature design of the rooftop vent is also very romantic."

Xu Shanshan, who stood at 1.74 meters tall, looked around with star-filled eyes. She grabbed the hand of Qiu Man, the pony-tailed girl, and toured around like a joyful little bird.

In the heart of the bustling city, where every inch of land is precious, a space of 400 square meters is truly rare. As they passed by the multipurpose hall, she suddenly pulled Qiu Man into the room and asked in a low voice:

"Qiu Man, what in the world did you buy in that 'gourd' of yours, and who on earth is Director Zhan? What are we doing here, visiting this place?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Man, who had been biting her lip, gently lowered her head and said with a slightly constrained look:

"Well, I don't really understand what's going on either, but Mr. Chu said he would give me a suite. I thought he was just speaking casually."

With an innocent face, the ponytailed Xu Shanshan said, flabbergasted:

"Give you a suite? Here? Have I gone mad or have you, Qiu Man? I can't understand what you're saying. Do you have any idea how much this suite costs? This is in the center of the city.

A 400-square meter house is worth at least tens of millions. And who is this Mr. Chu that suddenly popped up?"

As Xu Shanshan was freaking out, Zhan Bingxue, with her strong aura, approached the door and spoke evenly:

"Miss Sun, let me show you the bedroom and walk-in closet. If you like it, we can finalize the deal today since it's the weekend and you have time. By the way, do you have your ID with you? You'll need it when we transfer the house to your name."

"Umm... this suite is too expensive; let's forget it."

With a coy face, Qiu Man hesitated, but Zhan Bingxue, who had till then worn a smile, now turned serious and said:

"Miss Qiu Man, I remember I once told you, there's no room to negotiate with Mr. Chu's orders. You can only accept them. Mr. Chu instructed me to choose a suite for Miss Qiu Man. If you refuse, it's going to put me in a difficult position."

While Qiu Man and Zhan Bingxue were at an impasse, the tall girl named Xu Shanshan suddenly raised her hand and spoke up:

"Um, if Qiu Man doesn't want it, could you put it under my name..."

As soon as she finished, seeing everyone's eyes on her, Xu Shanshan's pretty face showed a hint of embarrassment and she said softly:

"Just kidding. Um, Miss Zhan, wait a moment, please. Qiu Man can be a bit stubborn, but I'll talk some sense into her."

With an enigmatic smile, Zhan Bingxue left the multipurpose hall. Once she was gone, Xu Shanshan, now serious, said:

"Qiu Man, tell me the truth, is the watch Liu Shiyin was wearing also a gift from Mr. Chu? Are you certain it's real?"

With a complicated expression, Qiu Man nodded her head heavily, her face filled with helplessness:

"I've told you many times already, Shiyin's Richard Mille ladies' watch is indeed real, worth almost two million, nearly twenty million yuan."

A light suddenly flashed in her eyes, and the leggy Xu Shanshan said lightly:

"Qiu Man, we're good sisters, right?" Discover hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire

Seeing the single ponytail girl nod, the leggy girl continued:

"Since we're good sisters, shouldn't we share the good fortune? You and Shiyin both struck it rich. Can you really stand by and watch your best sister achieve nothing? Can you..."

"Get to the point."

Qiu Man cut off her roommate and close friend's long-winded speech. Although she was naive, she could still vaguely sense something in her friend's eyes.

"Introduce me to Mr. Chu, okay? It doesn't matter if he's a bearded man or an old guy. If you and Shiyin can stand it, why can't I? It's just about gritting your teeth and enduring one night."

Xu Shanshan finished speaking, and Liu Shiyin suddenly appeared at the door. She glanced at Xu Shanshan and said indifferently,

"Shanshan, you can eat whatever you want, but there are some things you can't just blurt out. Mr. Chu and I haven't done anything. Last week, I was in the dormitory every day and never spent a night out. My roommates can vouch for me."

As for Mr. Chu you mentioned, he's not some bearded man or old male, he's about our age, even quite handsome. You can search online for the news about the Red Chess Car team, and the young man with black hair in the center of the news photo is Mr. Chu."

If you could really land Mr. Chu, a mansion and a luxury car would definitely not be out of your reach. That's all I have to say. I hope you keep your mouth clean and stop spreading rumors at school."

With a cold face, Liu Shiyin turned and left. However, right at that moment, the ponytailed girl suddenly spoke up:

"Shanshan, Shiyin really didn't stay that night. It seems like Mr. Chu wasn't interested in her. I can give you Mr. Chu's mobile number; his WeChat is the same as his phone number. You can add him on WeChat."

However, Mr. Chu is really... I can't quite describe it. Anyway, Tianxiangyuan Grand Hotel and the Mo Financial Tower both belong to his family. If you're really determined, you might want to give it a shot."

Upon hearing this, the girl named Xu Shanshan looked around. She glanced at the multi-million dollar mansion before her, thought of the diamond-studded watch on Liu Shiyin's wrist, clenched her teeth slightly, and directly said:

"I'll take the plunge. If you and Shiyin can do it, why can't I? I'm not any worse than you guys."

No sooner had she spoken than she took down the number from Qiu Man, searched for it on WeChat, and indeed found a WeChat contact.

Clicking to add a friend, she hesitated for a moment before typing in the verification: "I'm Qiu Man's roommate."

After typing, she hit send, then Xu Shanshan slid her phone into her pocket.

She had just said she would take the plunge, but her heart held an attitude of fun and novelty rather than a real desire to achieve anything. She was more driven by curiosity, or as if just treating it like a game.

After putting away her phone, Xu Shanshan, who had quickly put the matter out of her mind, grabbed her best friend's hand and asked with a hint of curiosity,

"Qiu Man, what are you really thinking? This apartment is worth tens of millions at least. If you miss out on this, you could work your whole life and still not afford a kitchen here. I'm not kidding. Our University of Science and Technology is not a prestigious college like some others. Many of our seniors work themselves to death all year and still can't save much money."

"You really need to think carefully. If you feel lonely living here by yourself, I can move in with you. It's so close to school, and it's fully furnished, just bring a suitcase to move in. You can't find a second place this nice near our school."

Persuaded by Xu Shanshan, Qiu Man finally nodded her head with a grunt,

"Well... okay then."

Before Xu Shanshan had time to feel happy for her friend, her phone suddenly vibrated with an alert.

The long-legged girl pulled her phone out of her jeans pocket, opened it, and discovered that the notification was from WeChat, indicating her friend request had been accepted.

"Wow... Did Mr. Chu really add me? I was just joking."

As Xu Shanshan's words fell, her phone vibrated again, and in the chat interface where the friend had been approved, a message had been sent.

"Hello, you are Qiu Man's friend, right? I'm Chu Mo, please take good care of me."

Xu Shanshan stared at the message on her phone, slightly stunned, and then suddenly turned to her friend next to her, asking,

"Qiu Man, what should I say?"

"If you want a mansion and a luxury car, just ask him directly."

Qiu Man spoke with a trace of teasing in her eyes, while a somewhat embarrassed Xu Shanshan hesitantly said,

"I was just kidding earlier."

After a moment's hesitation, biting her lip, Xu Shanshan's dainty fingers danced swiftly across the screen, and after a moment, she sent the text she had typed.

"Hello, Mr. Chu, I'm Qiu Man's best friend, Xu Shanshan. Do you have time to meet for tea?"
