21: Updated information: Spend one dollar at the supermarket and get one hundred dollars back!

Chen Kai immediately widened his eyes and looked at today's intelligence seriously.

The amount of money involved in today's intelligence determined whether he could successfully upgrade his Intelligence System to the intermediate level.

【Today's Intelligence Refresh: Today from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM, the Pan Dongdong Shopping Mall point system will malfunction. Spending one yuan will earn ten thousand points, and 100 points can deduct one yuan in cash. After the point malfunction, the Chairman of Pan Dongdong will personally hold a press conference, stating that during this short two-hour period, the loss will exceed ten million, but the points will not be clawed back and can be deducted permanently.】

Chen Kai was stunned; this wasn't about a Score a Bargain opportunity.

However, the Pan Dongdong store was quite famous in their Jiangnan City; it was a well-known "people's supermarket" run by a conscientious entrepreneur.

Not clawing them back made sense; after all, reputation was paramount.

He had previously visited this supermarket to help with purchasing agents; usually, spending one yuan earned one point, and 100 points could deduct one yuan, which was standard for most supermarkets.

If one accumulated enough points, they could occasionally make a "zero-cost purchase" during a shopping trip.

But... if the system malfunctioned today, wouldn't that mean spending one yuan and getting one hundred back?

The only catch was that the cashback could only be spent in their stores, but one could also list the membership card on Idle Fish to rent or sell it, which could also turn a profit.

The more Chen Kai thought about it, the more he felt this intelligence was not useless at all.

When the time came, he could list this point card on Idle Fish and sell it at a 30% discount—spending one hundred to get seventy—and still make a profit.

Even if he didn't sell the card, spending one yuan to get one hundred back meant he could basically make zero-cost purchases at the supermarket for the next few years, as long as he didn't overdo it and get the points clawed back.

"Feasible, I'll go fleece them tomorrow."

Chen Kai muttered to himself, then lay down beside Liu Yunshang, wrapped his arms around her, and closed his eyes.

In his hazy state, he vaguely heard a voice, "Little Brother... you're lying on my hair..."

...

Early the next morning, Chen Kai was forced awake!

Well, literally.

After resting on the bed for over an hour, he struggled to sit up and lit a cigarette at the bedside.

"Puff."

At this moment, he only felt exhausted, weary, and a little bit disheveled.

In contrast, Liu Yunshang, wearing black silk stockings and high heels, was full of energy with a rosy complexion.

"Sister Liu, when did you buy these stockings?"

Chen Kai remembered that she had clearly been wearing a charming purple backless dress when they went shopping yesterday.

How did she end up changing into her battle gear?

"You mean these black silk stockings? I bought them yesterday while you were trying on clothes."

Liu Yunshang looked into the full-length mirror, trying on the trench coat she bought yesterday; the trench coat paired with the black silk stockings had an indescribable beauty.

It felt similar to Mai Sakurajima.

Hearing this, Chen Kai gave a helpless, bitter smile.

No wonder she pushed him into the fitting room yesterday and kept throwing new clothes in; she was smuggling in her own agenda.

He liked this agenda.

"Little Brother, it's the weekend today, so your time today should be mine, right?"

"Accompany your Sister to the supermarket. It's been so long since I've shopped so relaxedly with someone; usually, going to the supermarket alone is quite dull."

"Hmm... actually, it doesn't have to be the supermarket. Sister just wants to spend more time with you; I'm happy to go anywhere with you."

Chen Kai smiled slightly, "From now on, the weekends are Sister's. Let's go to the supermarket then!"

Liu Yunshang's eyes brightened for a moment, and she inadvertently noticed Chen Kai's pants pocket, which seemed to contain something.

The shape couldn't help but remind her of the labubu she had given him.

"Did you take good care of the love Sister gave you?"

"It's right here, attached to my keychain."

Chen Kai took out the keychain, looped it around his finger, and showed it to her.

"Mm! Make sure to take good care of both of Sister's loves."

"Let's go, check out."

A beautiful curve tugged at the corner of Liu Yunshang's mouth as she held Chen Kai's hand and walked out of the room.

They checked out at the front desk downstairs, then strolled back to the neighboring Private Cinema, arm in arm.

The porsche panamera was still parked in the Private Cinema parking lot.

They happened to run into the waiter who brought them drinks yesterday, who was exercising outside.

Seeing Chen Kai being led out by the female CEO, the waiter's eyes immediately filled with envy.

Chen Kai also noticed this scene but just smiled faintly.

He sat comfortably in the passenger seat of the Panamera.

"Little Brother, there are two supermarkets nearby. Which one should we go to? Should we go to Pan Dongdong? Or the Hippo main store?"

Liu Yunshang held her phone with the navigation open, waiting for Chen Kai's answer.

"How about we go to Hippo? Hippo has more fresh produce and interesting items, and I haven't been there in a long time. Yesterday, Hippo was even sending me notifications saying that after shopping, I could enter a lucky draw with the receipt. Little Brother is so lucky, maybe I'll win a big prize."

As Liu Yunshang spoke, she silently turned her head to observe Chen Kai's expression.

"Let's go to Pan Dongdong instead; let's support the people's entrepreneur."

Chen Kai said quietly.

"Alright, I'll listen to Little Brother, whatever you say."

As Liu Yunshang stepped on the gas, the porsche panamera stopped in front of the Pan Dongdong mall in less than half an hour.

Chen Kai got out of the car and checked the time; it was eleven o'clock, which should be in time.

If they shopped for an hour and checked out before one o'clock, he could exploit this point loophole.

Liu Yunshang took the initiative to walk from the driver's seat to the passenger side and held his hand.

This drew waves of envy from passersby.

"Brothers, what is the highest realm of being a kept man? Having a goddess-level woman pursue you—that is the highest realm!"

"With a woman like that, let alone being a rich woman, even if she wasn't rich, wouldn't she train me just like training a dog?"

"Tch, if I met a goddess like that, I'd use two words to make her fall in love with me."

"Oh? Which two words?"

"Mommy!"

"Oh~ A fellow student, then never mind."

Listening to the surrounding discussions, the corners of Chen Kai's mouth twitched like an AK-47.

Walking into the mall, Chen Kai realized that there weren't many people today; it wasn't crowded, and there were no queues to buy things, probably because it was midday.

Usually, when it was busy, one had to queue just to enter the mall entrance.

However, this loophole only lasted for two hours, and it would take some time to ferment online; who knows how many people would regretfully slap their thighs for missing out on this wave of "ten-million subsidies."

Entering the supermarket, Chen Kai pushed a cart, strolling unhurriedly with Liu Yunshang.

"Little Brother, look, the pineapples over there still look fresh. Should we buy two boxes of cut fruit?"

"Okay."

Liu Yunshang took two boxes of cut fruit and two whole pineapples, placing them in the shopping cart.

Before they knew it, they had wandered into the fresh produce section.

"The oysters are so big; let's buy a few to boost your energy."

Liu Yunshang licked her lips and turned her head slightly to look at Chen Kai.

Chen Kai's back felt cold, and he had an ominous premonition.

Is she treating Brother like a perpetual motion machine? Is he even human?

Does she really think he only needs two oysters to achieve 0-100 acceleration?
