100: Chapter 100 An Immense Determination

With a soft "beep," the POS machine successfully printed the receipt.

A crisp, mechanical system prompt rang in Zhang Qi's ears right on time.

[Host detected spending 2,650,000 yuan.]

[Double cashback triggered. Cashback amount: 5,300,000 yuan.]

[Current cumulative spending total: 62,414,000 yuan.]

[Reward: three Physique points, one Skill Points.]

Zhang Qi listened to the prompts in his mind and calculated silently.

Because after breaking through the human limit, it requires ten Physique points to increase one attribute point.

The three newly obtained Physique points were clearly not enough.

He could only pool them together with the five Physique points he had previously accumulated.

A total of eight Physique points, saved in the system panel for later use.

As for the newly obtained Skill Points, he saved it as usual.

Added to the previously remaining ones, his Skill Pointss were becoming more and more abundant.

Immediately after, the phone in his pocket vibrated slightly.

Zhang Qi took out his phone, lit up the screen, and glanced at the text message from the bank.

[Your account received 5,300,000.00 RMB today.]

[Current available account balance: 57,094,538.50 yuan.]

Looking at the balance of over fifty-seven million.

Zhang Qi calmly tucked his phone back into his pocket.

On the other side, Store Owner confirmed that the huge sum of 2.65 million had arrived.

A brilliant, chrysanthemum-like smile instantly bloomed on her well-maintained face.

"Mr. Zhang, you drove here today, right?"

Store Owner leaned over slightly, her tone full of extreme enthusiasm and obsequiousness.

"These devices are numerous and heavy. Shall I arrange for a few assistants to help you deliver them to your home?"

"Or should I have them moved directly to your car?"

Hearing this, Zhang Qi turned his head and glanced at Lin Yuxi standing nearby.

He knew this girl had severe social anxiety and was most afraid of others knowing her address.

Moreover, that male classmate named Chen Zhuo clearly had designs on Lin Yuxi.

If he let the equipment store people deliver to her home, wouldn't Lin Yuxi's address be completely exposed?

Zhang Qi would certainly not make such a low-level mistake.

"Move them to the car."

Zhang Qi calmly rejected the proposal for home delivery.

Store Owner was an extremely shrewd person.

She didn't hesitate on the surface and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Alright, Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment."

Store Owner turned her head and shouted to those assistants.

"You guys, be quick."

"Hurry up and help Mr. Zhang move all these devices to the garage downstairs!"

The assistants agreed and pushed the carts out.

Zhang Qi turned to look at Lin Yuxi and said softly.

"Let's go, we're heading to the car."

"Oh, okay."

Lin Yuxi nodded quickly, her voice very obedient.

On her cold and stunning face, although she still looked aloof.

Her beautiful eyes revealed an irrepressible sense of gratitude.

She naturally understood Zhang Qi's intention in refusing the home delivery.

Brother Qi was protecting her privacy and didn't want her to be disturbed.

This attentive and thoughtful gesture made Lin Yuxi feel warm inside.

The two walked side by side out of this spacious equipment store.

If one observed carefully, one could notice a very obvious detail.

When they arrived, Lin Yuxi followed beside Zhang Qi, deliberately keeping a social distance of about half a meter.

But now, on the way back, she was walking almost pressed against Zhang Qi's arm.

The distance between the two was infinitely shortened.

This subconscious physical proximity was enough to show that her internal defenses were rapidly crumbling.

Watching the backs of Zhang Qi and Lin Yuxi as they left.

Chen Zhuo, who had been standing on the side without daring to make a sound, finally couldn't hold it together anymore.

He walked quickly to Store Owner's side, his face looking extremely ugly.

"Mom, didn't you just say you were very satisfied with Lin?"

Chen Zhuo gritted his teeth, his tone full of unwillingness and grievance.

"How could you just watch her walk away with someone else!"

Store Owner looked at her son's pathetic appearance and sighed helplessly.

She reached out and patted Chen Zhuo's shoulder, trying to persuade him earnestly.

"My good son, if it were an ordinary person, Mom would definitely help you."

"But look at what kind of strength he has!"

Store Owner pointed outside the door and lowered her voice.

"He can casually spend over two million to woo a girl without even blinking."

"With this kind of financial power, what can our family use to compare with him?"

Hearing this, although Chen Zhuo understood, he still found it unacceptable.

"But... when two people are together, it shouldn't just be about money!"

Chen Zhuo's eyes were red, and he was still making a final struggle.

He still held a glimmer of hope, thinking Lin Yuxi was not that kind of gold-digging girl.

"Besides, didn't he only spend two million or so!"

Chen Zhuo stiffened his neck and said somewhat unconvinced.

"This two million, if our family grits our teeth, it's not like we can't come up with it!"

Store Owner was so angry she laughed upon hearing her son's naive words.

She shook her head, looking at her son as if looking at a fool.

"Son, do you have no concept of money?"

Store Owner sighed and realistically shattered his illusions.

"Our family can come up with two million, but taking that money out is a big deal like buying a house or investing!"

"The whole family has to hold meetings and discuss for several days to decide."

"But what about him?"

Store Owner stretched out two fingers and waved them in front of Chen Zhuo.

"He takes out two million as casually as going to the vegetable market to buy a cabbage!"

"This is pure consumption, there is simply no comparison!"

"But..."

Chen Zhuo opened his mouth, wanting to say something to refute.

But he sadly discovered that he couldn't say a single word.

Just at this moment, the assistants who went to move the equipment returned pushing empty carts.

As soon as they entered the store, they gathered together excitedly and started chatting.

Store Owner and Chen Zhuo knew they had gone to deliver goods for Zhang Qi and Lin Yuxi.

They must be talking about Zhang Qi and Lin Yuxi.

The mother and son looked at each other, tacitly quieted down, and pricked up their ears to listen.

"Damn, did you guys see that just now?"

A young assistant gestured excitedly.

"The car that Mr. Zhang drove is actually a Rolls-Royce!"

Another assistant nodded repeatedly, his face full of shock.

"This car must cost several million, right?"

"No wonder he could buy two million worth of equipment without even blinking."

"This is a truly top-tier rich person!"

The assistant who spoke first sneered at this.

"Not just several million, who are you looking down on!"

He took out his phone and showed everyone the page he had secretly searched for earlier.

"I secretly used an image recognition app to search while moving things."

"The car he drives is a custom long-wheelbase rolls-royce phantom!"

The assistant swallowed hard, his voice even trembling.

"Damn, the on-the-road price of this car is over ten million!"

"Over ten million?!"

The surrounding assistants all gasped, their eyes almost popping out.

"Damn, a car worth over ten million, what kind of family must that be!"

"If I had that much money, I wouldn't have to work for the rest of my life!"

The assistants chatted while pushing the carts back to the logistics warehouse.

Store Owner and Chen Zhuo, standing in the rest area, were now completely petrified.

Store Owner turned her head to look at her son, whose face was completely vacant.

She spread her hands helplessly and sighed heavily.

"Did you hear that?"

"A car worth over ten million..."

Store Owner's tone revealed a deep sense of powerlessness.

"A car he drives is more expensive than our house in Huaqiangbei!"

"Son, face reality, there is really no comparison!"

Chen Zhuo stood blankly in place, his face deathly pale, unable to say a word.

He still wanted to stubbornly say one more time that love has nothing to do with money.

However, the words reached his lips but he couldn't say them at all.

He actually knew very well that Lin Yuxi was not a gold-digger who would sell herself for money.

But the strength Zhang Qi displayed was simply too immense, too terrifying.

This all-encompassing dimensionality reduction strike made him feel a deep sense of despair and powerlessness.

It's just that this feeling was too painful.

After all, this was his first love in life.

Now it had been completely shattered by cruel reality.

This still made Chen Zhuo feel incredibly painful.

It hurt too much!

Not to mention Chen Zhuo, the pure-hearted boy sad and dejected in the equipment store.

On the other side, Zhang Qi had already driven that top-tier rolls-royce phantom out of the underground garage.

Lin Yuxi sat quietly in the leather passenger seat.

In the car's trunk and the spacious back seat.

They were already packed with those expensive, film-grade devices worth 2.65 million.

Zhang Qi skillfully turned the steering wheel, and the car drove smoothly on the streets of Shenzhen.

Before long, the Rolls-Royce drove into the underground parking lot of Yunduan No. 1 Apartment.

After Zhang Qi parked the car, he directly called the property staff to help move the equipment.

The property service of a top-tier luxury residence like Yunduan No. 1 was naturally impeccable.

Soon, these large and small cardboard boxes were neatly moved into Apartment 1202.

As the anti-theft door was closed, only the two of them remained in the spacious apartment.

Lin Yuxi looked at the mountain of top-tier equipment in the living room.

The shock and gratitude in her heart were simply beyond words.

She had social anxiety and was not good at expressing her emotions to begin with.

So all the way, she had remained silent and hadn't said much.

But in her heart, it was like a fire burning, raging like a stormy sea.

Now that she had finally arrived home, in this relatively private and safe environment.

Lin Yuxi took a deep breath and finally gathered the courage to speak.

"Brother Qi..."

She turned around, her cold, beautiful eyes looking straight at Zhang Qi.

"Thank you so much for today."

Her voice trembled slightly, revealing an irrepressible excitement.

Zhang Qi looked at her and smiled faintly.

Lin Yuxi bit her rosy lower lip, as if she had made some major decision.

"Don't you like my female swordsman outfit?"

Her cold and stunning face instantly turned bright red, as if burning with fire.

"I'll go change into it now."

Lin Yuxi's voice grew quieter and quieter, her hands tightly twisting the hem of her clothes.

"After filming the video, I can..."

Even her slender neck flushed with an alluring pink.

"I can... go shopping with you while wearing this outfit!"

After saying this, her face was so red she didn't dare to lift it.

For a shut-in girl with severe social anxiety like her.

To be able to take the initiative to propose wearing a costume and showing her face in crowded places.

To be able to do this, she really had made a great determination!
