33: help

The caller was introduced by the 'Tingshui Team.' His surname was Wang, his name was Jianping, and he was an antique enthusiast.

Chen Su made an appointment with him over the phone to meet at a coffee shop in Hyatt Plaza in Maple City at ten o'clock the next day.

Chen Su chose the location.

For the current Chen Su, the transaction amount was a bit too large. He had to pick a crowded place for safety.

It was nearly midnight when he hung up the phone.

Chen Su casually browsed the forum, waiting for midnight to arrive.

As soon as the time came, Chen Su summoned the Intelligence System.

[Today's intelligence has been refreshed. Would the Host like to acquire it immediately?]

He clicked to acquire.

[Today's Intelligence (Grade C): Wei Yutao is a computer genius, proficient in various black technologies and hacking techniques. His address is: Room 4008, Building 9, Central Bay, Yuzhou. Phone: 152******]

Chen Su silently memorized this information.

He had been worrying about where to find a computer expert for future needs, and now one had been delivered right to his doorstep... At 9:00 AM the next day, Chen Su was woken up by his alarm clock.

Ever since he stopped working, he had been waking up naturally every day.

If he didn't set an alarm, he would likely sleep until ten-thirty.

This newly rented apartment had excellent lighting.

When he pulled open the curtains, sunlight poured through the glass, instantly lighting up the entire room.

His mood brightened along with it.

It was already late by the time he finished tidying up last night, so Chen Su didn't have time to buy any groceries.

After a simple wash and dressing up, he went downstairs to a shop and had a bowl of rice noodle rolls.

He rode his electric scooter toward Hyatt Plaza... Hyatt Plaza Coffee Shop.

"Mr. Wang, hello. These two are the silver and copper coins that were authenticated in the livestream yesterday."

Chen Su took the two coins out of his bag and placed them on the table.

Wang Jianping picked up the two coins and examined them carefully for a while.

"Yes, that's right, it's these two. I'll buy them according to the price quoted during the 'Stream Listener' livestream. What do you think, Mr. Chen?"

"Of course. However, I have another coin here worth two thousand. Would Mr. Wang like to take it as well?"

After Chen Su finished speaking, he took out another coin.

Wang Jianping picked up this coin and looked at it for a while. "Very well, I'll take it too."

"850,000 for the silver coin, 180,000 for the copper coin, and 2,000 for this silver dollar. That's a total of 1,032,000. Mr. Chen, please give me your bank card number."

...In less than five minutes, Chen Su received a message that Wang Jianping's transfer had arrived.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven."

Seven digits, that's correct.

For a moment, Chen Su felt it was a bit surreal.

In just over half a month, he had already become a millionaire.

Before leaving, Wang Jianping reached out his hand to Chen Su and said, "Mr. Chen, if you have any more antiques in the future, you can contact me directly. I'll take whatever you have."

Chen Su shook his hand back. "Alright, next time I have an old item, I'll definitely contact Mr. Wang first."

Wang Jianping smiled. "Then I wish us a happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

After seeing off Wang Jianping, Chen Su wandered around the mall by himself.

He bought himself a few sets of well-fitting clothes.

Carrying several bags of clothes, just as he was about to head back, he received a call from Li Chuxia.

"Chen Su, are you busy?"

"No, what's up?"

"Uh~, it's like this. I have a class reunion tonight, and you're the only male friend I have. Could you do me a favor and pretend to be my boyfriend?"

Chen Su paused. "Miss, a reunion is just a reunion. If you don't have a boyfriend, just don't bring one. Why do I have to pretend?"

"Oh, to tell you the truth, several people attending tonight are my pursuers. They've been annoying me so much. I was thinking you could help me out and get rid of these pesky flies once and for all."

Chen Su was a bit hesitant. Strictly speaking, he and Li Chuxia...

...had only met a few times.

Their relationship hadn't reached that level of closeness yet.

"Is that okay? For the sake of me helping you sell tea and getting you a Golden Zongzi, please help me. Just this once, I promise there won't be a next time."

Chen Su sighed slightly. "Alright then, just this once."

"Great, thank you so much! Where are you now? I'll come find you." Li Chuxia's voice sounded a bit cheerful.

"At Entrance 1 of Hyatt Plaza."

"Don't move, I'm coming right over."

In less than ten minutes.

Chen Su saw a beautiful figure walking toward him.

This beautiful figure was indeed Li Chuxia.

Today she was wearing a slim-fit pink shirt paired with classic blue jeans and a pair of small white high heels. The outfit was simple yet elegant, and combined with her exquisite face, she looked like a fairy among flowers.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"I haven't been waiting long."

"Come on, let's go inside and browse. I'll buy you a few sets of clothes while we're at it."

Chen Su lifted the clothing bags in his hand. "No need, I just bought several sets."

"Oh, it's different. We're going to pretend to be a couple tonight, so we definitely have to buy matching outfits. That way it'll be more convincing, don't you think?" Li Chuxia said calmly.

After saying that, she directly took Chen Su's arm. "Let's practice a bit so we don't blow our cover tonight."

Hearing this, Chen Su nodded and didn't say anything.

With such a beautiful girl taking the initiative to hold his hand, he wasn't the one losing out anyway.

Seeing that Chen Su didn't refuse, Li Chuxia became even happier.

She pulled him into a shop.

The shop's name was in English, and Chen Su didn't know what brand it was.

In the past, he would have walked right past this type of shop because there was a high probability he couldn't afford anything inside, so he never wasted time going in.

The shop assistants were very observant. Seeing Li Chuxia's outfit and temperament...

...it was obvious she was a girl from a wealthy family.

As soon as they entered, the assistants began introducing items very enthusiastically.

Li Chuxia pointed to the clothes on several mannequins nearby. "Take these sets for him to try on."

"Miss, you have great taste. These sets are all our new arrivals for the season and perfectly match this gentleman's temperament."

The shop assistant quickly brought out the right sizes for Chen Su from the back.

"Sir, please follow me. The fitting room is over here."

Chen Su nodded. "Hold these for me."

He handed the clothes he had just bought to Li Chuxia.

"Okay, go in and see if they fit. If they don't, we'll go look at other shops."

...A minute later.

When Chen Su walked out of the fitting room, the eyes of the shop assistants and Li Chuxia all widened.

The outfit was very slim-fitting. Chen Su had a good build and was also very handsome.

He hadn't really dressed himself up before, usually buying loose-fitting clothes.

"It looks good, it looks good! It suits you very well. Try the other sets too," Li Chuxia said, clapping her hands.

"One set should be enough, right?"

"Oh, just listen to me," Li Chuxia said coquettishly... "Waiter, wrap up all these sets from just now."

"Right away!" The shop assistant was quick and nimble.

She was afraid Li Chuxia would change her mind. It wasn't easy to encounter such a big client. By selling these few sets, her commission and bonus for this month would increase significantly.
