36: Chapter 36 Sister-in-law and Brother's Wife

Su Nange opened the game, feeling that only this GTA could truly make him feel relaxed and satisfied!

Su Nange saw that his level had reached 15, thanks to completing a heist mission.

Su Nange remembered that there seemed to be an item in the game's system shop that unlocked at level 15.

Su Nange hurriedly opened the page to check. Sure enough, another item had been unlocked right after the stamina recovery potion.

This item was a pair of glasses, labeled "boundary gap glasses," and the price was a staggering $200,000!

Su Nange thought the unit was written incorrectly. After looking carefully, he cursed, "Are the game developers out of their minds? It's just a pair of glasses; why sell it for so much?"

That's right, the previous two items only cost a little over $100. This is only the third item, and it's nearly 2,000 times more expensive?

Su Nange moved his mouse over to view the description of the glasses.

Category: Portable Neural Interaction Terminal

Acquisition Method: Exclusive order via Maze Bank terminal

Unlocks exclusively for special CEOs; cannot be bound to others!

Stop staring at the screen to grind missions.

This palm-sized optical device is the latest toy for the ambitious in Los Santos.

The moment you put it on, your retina connects directly to the Rockstar cloud server, and your real-world vision is immediately overlaid with the neon skyline of Los Santos: from the Vinewood sign to the barbed wire of Fort Zancudo, the full-size open world is available on demand.

The sofa in reality instantly becomes a hidden hideout in Arcadia Bay.

More portable than the Kosatka submarine, more covert than the Avenger aircraft.

After all, no one would suspect a guy wearing glasses of planning a bank heist.

After reading the long description of the item, Su Nange hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! It was my own lack of vision, my apologies."

This is a damn artifact! Only $200,000, is that expensive?

It's totally worth it, okay? Logging into GTA anytime, anywhere!

Simply put, this thing is the real bridge connecting reality and the game, okay!

So, it makes perfect sense for this item to be unlocked third. It makes total sense!

Su Nange decided that as soon as he completed another Fleeca Bank heist mission, he would buy this item first.

This way, he could use his free time during the day to do missions, instead of having to wait until he got home from work to use the computer.

Furthermore, with this thing, he could go wherever he wanted. He could vacation however he liked.

Making money while lying on the beach? Could there be anything more wonderful than that?

Time quickly passed to the evening of the next day. Liu Yuan had been busy all afternoon in her clubhouse located by the West Lake.

She was preparing a sumptuous Gallic feast for one of her good friends.

Must say, Liu Yuan really knew quite a lot.

Under the guidance of a foreign chef, she had actually managed to make it look quite professional.

Things like Niçoise salad, Beef Bourguignon, duck confit, pan-seared foie gras, bouillabaisse, and so on; it all looked very authentic.

And the final dessert, macarons, were also something Liu Yuan had been making since the afternoon.

A black A6L had just parked in the clubhouse's parking space.

A handsome attendant quickly stepped forward to open the driver's side door and welcome the driver out.

Stepping out of the car was a dignified and noble-looking woman.

The attendant guided her: "Ms. Zhou, the eldest young lady is already waiting for you inside!"

Zhou Wanqing nodded and walked quickly into the house.

Liu Yuan had already set out the dishes and opened a bottle of wine from a famous estate, pouring it into a wide-bodied decanter.

Seeing Zhou Wanqing walk in, Liu Yuan said happily, "Wanqing, sit down quickly. I made all of this myself today, oh, you must try it."

Zhou Wanqing looked at Liu Yuan, feeling a sense of warmth in her heart.

Being able to eat a hot meal right after getting off work was a bit of a luxury for Zhou Wanqing these days.

These two sisters had known each other since they were children. Their relationship had always been very good.

Although after Liu Yuan grew up, she had been stimulated by something, and sometimes she acted a bit crazy.

But she had always cared deeply for Zhou Wanqing.

Of course, only with Liu Yuan could Zhou Wanqing open up her heart and share things that only best friends talk about.

However, seeing a third set of tableware on the table, Zhou Wanqing asked, "Is there someone else?"

Liu Yuan appeared a bit embarrassed and nodded, saying, "It's not an outsider; you're very familiar with him."

As soon as she finished speaking, another person walked in from outside, handsome and dashing.

The young man didn't greet Liu Yuan first; upon seeing Zhou Wanqing, he smiled very brightly.

He greeted Zhou Wanqing: "Wanqing, hello!"

Zhou Wanqing frowned slightly, as if she didn't really want to see this person. But since he was already here, there was nothing she could do.

She replied: "Where are your manners! Call me Sister!"

The man smiled with great affinity: "Hello, Sister Wanqing."

Liu Yuan hurriedly mediated: "Wanqing, Chenfeng had a birthday yesterday, but I was busy. So I'm taking this opportunity today to make it up to him."

"This kid has been following behind us since he was little, so isn't that like family?"

Zhou Wanqing thought to herself that if it were anyone else, it might really be fine.

But your brother~

Don't you know that your brother pursued me crazily? I've rejected him so many times; sitting together like this, isn't it awkward?

What's worse is that the elders of the Zhou and Liu families have been trying to set up a marriage between the siblings' older brother, Liu Zongren, and Zhou Wanqing.

In other words, the Liu brothers were both pursuing Zhou Wanqing at the same time.

This~~ inside the wealthy families, it really is a bit chaotic.

Liu Yuan, of course, supported her own brother.

On one hand, because Liu Zongren, as the primary heir, would inherit all the family assets.

Although Liu Yuan was a woman, she was strong-willed by nature and certainly wouldn't feel comfortable with that.

Second, whether to call Zhou Wanqing sister-in-law or younger sister-in-law. Anyone should find that an easy choice, right?

So, relying on her personal friendship with Zhou Wanqing, she had been helping Liu Chenfeng both openly and secretly.

Zhou Wanqing's initial feeling of warmth now turned into a desire to escape.

But thinking about how she still needed a favor from her best friend, she had to bite the bullet and finish the meal.

Seeing Zhou Wanqing's mature and noble face, Liu Chenfeng's mood became excellent.

There were countless girls outside pursuing him.

But all those young girls couldn't compare to the intoxicating charm of this older sister before him.

Thus, the third young master of a wealthy family happily acted as a waiter, pouring wine for the two ladies.

Fortunately, Liu Yuan was a person with high emotional intelligence. Helping her brother create opportunities was fine, but he had to strive for his own performance.

Therefore, Liu Yuan continued to chat with Zhou Wanqing about topics between best friends, not deliberately emphasizing Liu Chenfeng.

After the few of them had drunk some wine, Liu Yuan asked, "Wanqing, what exactly are you trying to investigate about Cilan Teahouse?"

"I went to check it out yesterday; it's just a place to drink tea and sell porcelain. And the porcelain is actually quite good, I even bought a vase."

Liu Chenfeng chimed in from the side: "Right, that porcelain is beautiful. Thanks for the birthday gift, Sister!"

Liu Yuan rolled her eyes at Liu Chenfeng, meaning 'don't interrupt with nonsense,' are you implying that Sister Wanqing didn't bring you a gift?

Zhou Wanqing didn't show much reaction; her biggest headache right now was how to investigate the internal problems of the City Investment Company.

Zhou Wanqing replied, "Sigh, you know the mission I have at this company. According to information from one of my informants, our suppliers often go to that teahouse."

Liu Yuan chuckled inwardly: An informant? Isn't that Su Nange? Hehehe.

Thus, Liu Yuan asked Zhou Wanqing the same question again: "Isn't it normal for them to go there? In the current market, which bid isn't rigged in advance?"

Zhou Wanqing looked at the red wine in her glass and shook her head: "Impossible, it shouldn't be that simple. If it were just bid-rigging or collusion, there would be no need to go to such a place."

Liu Yuan was surprised inwardly, do you two have to be so in sync? Even your answers are exactly the same?

Zhou Wanqing continued to analyze: "I've reviewed the financial data of the City Investment Company over the years. But there are no problems."

Liu Chenfeng: "No problems, isn't that great?"

Zhou Wanqing ignored him.

Liu Yuan: "No problems is the biggest problem?"

Zhou Wanqing nodded in agreement; she had no doubts about her best friend's ability.

"Yes, this data isn't perfect, but it's suspiciously too good. But if the City Investment Company is really an egg with no cracks, why did my predecessor, the financial director, end up in prison?"

"Where did those tens of millions in cash in his home come from? The procuratorate still has no leads to this day."

Liu Yuan was a businesswoman herself; she understood many shady tactics even better than Zhou Wanqing.

She took a sip of red wine and seriously helped her friend analyze: "So, you suspect that there is another party acting as a white glove for their private transactions?"

Zhou Wanqing nodded quickly: "Yes, Yuan, your line of analysis is spot on!"

"Only private transactions would need such high-net-worth items to act as white gloves. For example, porcelain is a very good bridge."

Liu Yuan: "Yes, a few so-called masters can determine the market value of this stuff. I bought one yesterday; it was indeed from the hand of a contemporary master."

"However, I checked Christie's auction records. That item really is worth that much."

"So, it doesn't look like there's any profit margin. The invoices, receipts, purchase contracts, and so on are all fine."

Zhou Wanqing: "That's what I want to investigate clearly. Could it be that they have some other methods we don't know about?"

Liu Yuan nodded and suddenly asked: "Wanqing, who is that informant of yours?"

Zhou Wanqing was suddenly stunned by this question~~
