14: Do you know Chen Su?

[Today's Intelligence (B-level): Grandpa Li from Villa No. 3, Rongqiao Villa Area is a well-known domestic tea expert. He has a cake of Premium Pu'er Tea worth 350,000 yuan in his collection. Tonight at 19:00, while his wife was tidying up the cupboards, she mistook the white frost on the surface of this Pu'er for mold and threw it away. She threw it in the third red trash can at the first corner, 50 meters straight from the entrance of the residential area.]

A cake of tea for 350,000 yuan?

The world of the rich is truly unpredictable.

Chen Su slept straight through until ten o'clock the next morning.

After getting up, he finished washing up.

He heated a cup of milk for himself and hastily finished breakfast with the remaining toast in the fridge.

He went to the courier station downstairs to pack and ship the signed T-shirts he had sold the previous night, one by one.

Chen Su even generously chose SF Express.

Since people had spent a lot of money to buy them, they deserved the best service.

Door-to-door delivery was an absolute necessity.

After shipping the goods, Chen Su didn't stay idle; he went out and bought a pair of gloves.

He also stopped by an electric bike shop and spent two thousand yuan to buy himself an electric scooter.

Chen Su had originally intended to buy a small car worth over a hundred thousand yuan for commuting.

After a few days, he realized that with this system, he wouldn't have to worry about not making money.

He decided to wait until he had saved more money to buy a better car.

What man doesn't have the dream of driving a BBA?

After completing tonight's job, Chen Su would have the ability to take the first steps toward realizing that dream.

After purchasing the electric scooter, he got the license plate registered on the spot... The sun gradually began to set in the west.

Giant Star De Hua's first concert would be held tonight at seven o'clock at the Maple City Stadium.

As a veteran Heavenly King, the attraction of Giant Star De Hua's concert was immense.

Even those who hadn't bought tickets crowded outside the stadium.

The streets were empty.

The atmosphere of the entire Maple City was ignited by the countdown to Giant Star De Hua's concert.

"7"

"6"

..."3"

"2"

"1"

The performance began... Meanwhile, Chen Su had already ridden his electric scooter to the Rongqiao Villa Area to stake out the place.

"It's 7:15 PM, she should have thrown it away by now."

After following an owner into the residential area...

He identified the direction and walked toward the location indicated by the system's intelligence.

Straight for 50 meters.

When he reached the first corner, Chen Su saw a row of trash cans—red, green, and blue.

He walked to the third red trash can.

Looking at the full bin of trash, it was mixed with the sour stench of leftover food.

Chen Su suppressed his discomfort and began to rummage... The atmosphere of the concert was pushed to the extreme by Giant Star De Hua.

"De Hua, I love you!"

"One more time! One more time!"

...Inside the stadium, the fans were screaming their hearts out.

A girl in the very front row was wearing a mask.

Dressed in the white T-shirt with Giant Star De Hua's personal signature, she was frantically waving the light stick in her hand.

This girl was a local of Maple City, and SF Express's intra-city delivery could achieve half-day arrival.

She had received the signed T-shirt before four o'clock in the afternoon.

Before singing, Giant Star De Hua noticed that the clothes this girl was wearing were exactly the ones he had signed for Chen Su yesterday.

Thinking of that enthusiastic young man from yesterday, Giant Star De Hua felt a sense of warmth.

After finishing a song, he looked at the girl in the front row with a playful expression.

"Little girl, do you know Chen Su?"

"Me?"

The little girl wearing the signed T-shirt pointed at herself, looking incredulous.

"Yes, you," Giant Star De Hua nodded.

"My idol actually called me out personally and spoke to me!"

"Ah! I'm so excited, so excited! God is truly looking out for me; that T-shirt was definitely worth the money!"

The little girl's inner monologue was in full swing.

She summoned all her strength.

"I—"

...Back at the trash cans in the Rongqiao Villa Area.

"Good grief, what is all this? Why does it smell so weird?"

"Holy crap, what's this? Silk stockings? How could they be torn into such a mess?"

..."And what's this? Underwear? Do rich people play that dirty?"

He continued to search, but after rummaging through more than half the trash can, he still hadn't found it.

"That shouldn't be right. Wasn't it thrown away at seven? It should be on the top layer. Why haven't I found it after digging through half the bin?"

What he didn't know was that shortly after Grandpa Li's wife had thrown away her small bag of trash...

An exquisitely dressed woman had come by and thrown five whole bags of trash into this very bin.

It had instantly filled the bin to the brim.

The things Chen Su had been rummaging through on top were all thrown away by that glamorous woman.

After digging around for a while longer, only one small bag of trash remained at the bottom of the bin.

Suppressing his discomfort...

He opened it.

A slightly moldy-looking tea cake wrapped in tissue paper came into view.

Vaguely, he could still see the blurred characters for "Pu'er" on it.

This must be it.

Chen Su put the Pu'er tea cake into his bag.

After putting the trash he had dug out back into the bin...

He walked out of the residential area, hopped on his beloved little scooter, and sped away.

The night breeze brushed against his face.

Chen Su whistled.

Cruising at 50 mph, his mood was free and easy... "I am his wife!"

This girl naturally knew who the Chen Su that Giant Star De Hua mentioned was.

In the viral post about Giant Star De Hua eating at Feng Wenjun's restaurant...

She was one of the few girls who had been searching for Chen Su most frantically.

"Oh? Is that so? Then you can request the next song. What would you like to hear? Anything you want."

To have such an unexpected reward, the little girl became even more excited.

"Ah! Can I really pick anything? I want to hear 'Love You for Ten Thousand Years'!"

"Alright, 'Love You for Ten Thousand Years' it is. I hope Chen Su can also Love You for Ten Thousand Years."

Hearing Giant Star De Hua's teasing, the little girl's face instantly turned red.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

A burst of laughter erupted from the venue.

Giant Star De Hua truly believed that this girl was Chen Su's wife.

Chen Su had said before that he wanted the autographs to give to his family... The singing slowly drifted out.

"Love You for Ten Thousand Years..."

"Love you enough to stand the test..."

"Flying beyond the limits of time..."

...Chen Su had no idea that he had gained a wife for free at Giant Star De Hua's concert.

At this moment, he was in the bathroom, frantically lathering up with body wash and shampoo.

He was determined to completely eliminate the smell he had brought back from the Rongqiao Villa Area.

This shower lasted for over half an hour.

He looked at the Pu'er tea on the table, which had a bit of "mold spots."

To be precise, these mold spots were the white frost mentioned in the system intelligence.

White frost is a type of "frost" formed during the later stages of Pu'er tea's storage and aging process, also commonly known as "tannins." It is the result of the fermentation and aging of Pu'er tea and is a very excellent substance.

To an outsider, it indeed looks like mold and is easily thrown away.

Chen Su broke off a small piece from the tea cake and brewed a cup for himself.

In all his years, this was the first time he had seen such expensive tea.

Let alone drinking it.

He took a small sip from the teacup, and Chen Su frowned.

"Hmm, why does it taste like a rusty pot lid?"

"Can this piece of junk really be worth 350,000?"

Refusing to believe it, he took another large gulp.

"Bah! Ptooey!"

This is terrible!!
