Chapter 119 - 117: The Wolong and the Young Phoenix Among Men

Seeing the positive review left by the passenger, Yang Chen wasn’t particularly happy.In all honesty, Yang Chen hoped that male passenger would continue being "arrogant" as he was when he first got in the car, maybe even give a bad review.

When they got home, Yu Shishi handed the car keys to Yang Chen.

Yang Chen smiled and said, "You keep them. You can use this car whenever you go out."

Yu Shishi excitedly said, "Sir, are you really letting me drive it?"

"Of course. You’ll need a mode of transportation for running errands, won’t you?" Yang Chen replied with a smile.

He’s just letting her drive it, not giving the car to her, yet she looks so thrilled.

"Hehe... Thank you, sir! You’re so kind," Yu Shishi said happily.

At this moment, the system notified that Yu Shishi’s loyalty to Yang Chen increased to 60, an increase of 5 points.

Letting her drive the car yields good vibes, that’s nice.

Yu Shishi happily accepted the key and said, "Then sir, you go take a shower, I’ll start cooking now. What would you like to eat?"

"It’s hot, and I don’t have much of an appetite. Just something simple will do, make whatever you like," Yang Chen replied.

Yu Shishi nodded and promptly went to the kitchen to cook.

They finished eating just after 7 o’clock.

Sleeping at this time would be impossible, and Yang Chen didn’t feel like going out to drive.

Since Yu Shishi had just moved in, many daily necessities hadn’t been bought yet.

So, Yang Chen suggested taking her out shopping.

Shopping with the boss is definitely a good thing, so Yu Shishi quickly changed into nice clothes and went out with Yang Chen.

When Yu Shishi came, she only brought a suitcase and a backpack, probably not enough for many clothes.

So, Yang Chen first took her to the mall to buy a few changes of clothes.

Yu Shishi is a sweet type of girl, so her interests are all in cute, adorable things, especially claw machines.

But neither Yang Chen nor she was good at it, spending a hundred on coins without getting a single prize.

In the end, Yang Chen couldn’t stand it anymore, and gathered a handful of candies, just couldn’t leave empty-handed.

Yu Shishi complained, "Sir, do you think these claw machines are rigged? Every time it grabs, it shakes and drops, it’s obviously meant to make people lose."

Yang Chen laughed and replied, "They make money by giving it a little shake, how could it work without a trick? There are dolls for sale over there, you want one?"

Yu Shishi smiled and nodded.

"Come on, pick whatever you like, tonight’s on me!" Yang Chen said with a smile.

Yu Shishi clapped happily and said, "You’re the best, sir! Then I won’t be polite."

"Haha... No need to be polite with me, take whatever you like," Yang Chen replied with a chuckle.

Sigh...

Such a girl, who can be cheered up by a few dolls, is quite rare.

Even though Yang Chen was paying, Yu Shishi wasn’t greedy, she just picked a Peppa and a Sugar Baby.

"Sir, I’ll just take these two. You’ll pay, and when I get my salary, I’ll treat you back," Yu Shishi said playfully.

Yang Chen smiled and nodded, paid, and left.

As they passed an Apple store, Yu Shishi stopped and said, "Sir, wait a minute, I need to go in and buy a charger. I forgot mine when I came."

Yang Chen nodded and went in with her.

The Apple store never lacks customers, whether buying or not, there are always people coming in just to look.

It’s much better now, in past years, Apple stores were crowded with people just trying out demo units.

Yu Shishi went to pick out a charger.

Yang Chen waited by her side.

Next to them, a man and woman were shopping.

The man was already holding a laptop and a phone, and now his companion picked out an iPad.

"Honey, I want this too, buy it for me. It’ll complete the set, my friends will be so envious, they’ll definitely praise you," the girl said with a smile.

The man looked quite ordinary, not dressed like someone who could spend over 20,000 without blinking.

He furrowed his brow, a bit embarrassed, and said, "I didn’t bring that much money today, can we buy it another day?"

The girl immediately said, "Oh, you can take a loan online, can’t you? You’ve already borrowed over 50,000, a few more thousand won’t matter, right? I didn’t really want these things, but all of my friends have them. If I don’t, it’ll be embarrassing, and they’ll look down on you. Because all of theirs were gifts from their boyfriends, I want gifts from you too."

Yang Chen couldn’t help but turn to look, wow, is this what they call a walking ATM?

Damn, he can agree to this?

Isn’t that turning him into a complete sucker?

Any girl who really considers him her boyfriend wouldn’t treat him like this.

Turns out, Yang Chen was thinking too simply.

The man nodded and took out his phone, opened a loan platform, and after a series of actions, he said with a smile, "Alright, I’ve borrowed it, buy! Buy together! If others have it, you must have it too."

The girl hugged him happily and kissed him, saying, "Thank you, dear, you’re so good to me, I’m so happy."

Even the sales assistant standing nearby couldn’t bear to watch anymore and said, "If it’s inconvenient, you can come back another day to buy it. We have plenty in stock and there’s always inventory available."

The girl got anxious and quickly said, "No way! My boyfriend has money, we’ll buy it now."

The man nodded, saying, "Right! We’ll buy it now!"

The sales assistant shook her head helplessly and took the items to the cash register for activation.

The girl was overjoyed and quickly followed to keep watch.

Yang Chen couldn’t help but ask, "Brother, isn’t this too much? Borrowing over fifty grand to buy things for her?"

The devoted guy looked blissfully happy as he said, "Yeah! It’s so hard to find a girlfriend nowadays. She’s so pretty, and a college student, it’s my honor that she likes me, so of course I have to do everything to meet her needs."

"Hiss... Tsk... Brother, that’s not what love is about. If she really loved you, she wouldn’t do this to you. Even the sales assistant just now couldn’t bear to watch and tried to give you a chance to back out. You..." Yang Chen was too angry to continue.

Totally embarrassing for men.

"Then what else can I do? I’ve already spent over a hundred thousand on her, I can’t just give up now," the devoted guy said, thinking he was very reasonable.

"How far have you two progressed? Are you talking about marriage yet?" Yang Chen asked again.

The devoted guy replied, "Not that fast! She just kissed me for the first time, hehe..."

"Hooo..." Yang Chen let out a long sigh and stopped talking.

One couldn’t even call this a sucker, it’s downright foolish.

The customers nearby started whispering.

"That guy’s an idiot, isn’t he? Clearly, he’s being made a fool, yet he thinks it’s love."

"Nothing can be done, it’s so hard to find a girlfriend now, he probably doesn’t dare to break up."

"In the next life, just be a woman; no need to prepare a house, car, or betrothal gifts. Whatever a woman wants, a man has to meet. Strolling around with a cup of milk tea every day, how comfy!"

...

At this moment, a loud slap was heard nearby.

Everyone turned to look.

A beautiful woman with long black hair was pointing at her boyfriend and yelling, "Is it so hard to buy something? Get on your knees!"

The guy glared at her, only to get slapped again.

"Kneel! Didn’t you hear me?" the girl shouted.

The boyfriend seemed embarrassed and said quietly, "Please don’t be mad, okay? I will definitely buy it for you next time."

The girl pointed to the floor and said, "I told you to kneel, didn’t you hear?"

Reluctantly, the boyfriend actually knelt down on one knee.

Everyone in the store was shocked by the sight.

Yang Chen was also stunned.

Previously, he’d seen videos on TikTok of girls demanding their boyfriends kneel in public, always thinking they were staged, that in real life no man could be so spineless.

Well, now he’d seen one.

The guy probably realized it was embarrassing, he was already wiping tears from his eyes.

But his so-called girlfriend was relentless, shouting, "Kneel properly!"

Indeed, the guy got down on both knees.

They say a man kneels before gold under their knees, like kneeling to heaven, earth, and parents; what on earth is kneeling to a woman?

Even a genuine marriage proposal is only a one-knee kneel.

What kind of thing is kneeling on both knees?

The girl was still relentless, said, "Ask anyone here today, if they say I’m wrong, I’ll let you get up. Isn’t it normal for a boyfriend to buy something for his girlfriend? Be it on Mars, it’s a natural thing. Get it straight, nowadays any woman can easily find a partner, but a man must have ability to find one. It’s your family’s fortune that I’m interested in you, don’t take it for granted."

The man kneeling lowered his head, wiping tears without saying a word.

People nearby started whispering.

"Oh my god, are girls these days really this terrifying?"

"Every day another terrifying girl story, terrifying."

"Encountering these extraordinary men today is truly a rare sight. One loans for his girlfriend’s purchases, another gets punished to kneel for not wanting to buy. Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

"Seeing his kneeling posture and speed, skilled enough to tug at heartstrings, definitely not the first time he’s knelt."

"Sigh... I think what that girl said is right, any woman can easily find a partner now. But men find it so hard, without money or ability, they can only make up for it with dignity."

"If my girlfriend looked that beautiful, if she wanted me to kneel, I would kneel. At worst, I’ll kneel in front of her outside, and go home to kneel behind her to get back at her. Humph!"
