58: Chapter 58 The School Beauty's Secrets

Li Tong: Favorability + 10 points

Li Tong: Favorability + 10 points

Current favorability: 80 points

"Ding, increase in Li Tong's favorability detected. Congratulations to the host for receiving a reward of 10 points."

Only ten points?

Lin Yi curled his lips in disappointment.

It seems his plan to farm points had fallen through.

It appears that one cannot obtain points by repeatedly increasing favorability in this manner.

Then he would just have to work hard to bind other girls and increase their favorability.

This system is really forcing him to be a scumbag…

However, at this moment, what occupied Lin Yi's mind more was what Li Tong had just said to him.

Could he truly become a man tonight?

Although he didn't have many feelings for Li Tong.

Most of the time, he just treated her as a tool to farm cash rebates.

However, since she had proactively offered herself, there was naturally no reason to refuse.

After all, Li Tong's figure was quite good.

Looking at all the girls present, apart from Yin Na who had just left, no one could compare to Li Tong.

After saying those two sentences, Li Tong turned and ran to the underground wine cellar.

Lin Yi watched Li Tong's retreating figure and couldn't help but lick his lips.

His heartbeat also suddenly quickened a little.

...

...

Upon arriving at the basement level, the classmates realized that this villa was truly full of surprises.

Who could have imagined that a home could have so many places for entertainment?

Not only was there a private cinema, but also a home KTV, gym, e-sports room, and board game room.

"Wow, Lin Yi, your house is way too big!"

"Yeah, who has a movie theater in their house normally!"

The classmates all looked like country bumpkins entering the city.

Lin Yi chuckled inwardly, thinking that his own reaction when he first saw this villa last night was probably exactly the same as theirs.

"Lin Yi, this villa couldn't cost over a hundred million, right?"

Finally, a classmate couldn't help but ask the question everyone was curious about.

The other classmates had actually wanted to ask for a long time, but such matters involved someone's privacy after all, so asking rashly was ultimately not very appropriate.

Lin Yi had no intention of hiding it from everyone.

"It cost a total of 120 million."

They didn't know until he said it, but once he did, they were shocked.

Usually, everyone just joked around on the internet, talking about setting a small goal of earning 100 million first.

But that was just a meme.

How did you just nonchalantly pull out a "small goal" like that?

Unlike junior high or high school students, college students at this stage already had a relatively clear concept of money.

Everyone's monthly living expenses were basically around 1,500, and with part-time jobs, they could earn at most around 3,000 a month.

After deducting basic living expenses, being able to save 2,000 was already considered very, very impressive.

Calculating it this way... 120 million...

It would take 60,000 months, 5,000 years...

The entire history of China is only 5,000 years long...

In other words, if one started saving from ancient times, they would barely have enough to buy a villa like this by now.

And that's on the premise of living frugally every month...

Really, comparison reveals the gap...

Some people are already in Rome, while others are still working like oxen and horses...

The students present, including Su Ming, were shocked beyond measure.

Especially Su Ming.

She was very curious about how Lin Yi, as a freshman, managed to earn so much money.

Especially since he had no family background.

So much money was earned entirely by himself.

Could he have won the lottery?

That's impossible... The probability is too low...

It is said that the probability of winning over 100 million in the lottery is lower than the probability of being struck by lightning three times in a row.

The way Su Ming looked at Lin Yi gradually began to have a sense of admiration.

Since she was a child, Su Ming had dreamed of becoming a successful female entrepreneur.

Like her father, opening her own company and making it big and strong.

But as she grew older, she realized that in this era, trying to carve out one's own path was a very difficult thing.

It could be said that the most money-burning thing in this world is starting a business.

As the saying goes, one doesn't fear a rich second-generation living a decadent life, but rather fears a rich second-generation working hard to start a business.

Once a company runs into problems, it is very likely that the family fortune accumulated over several generations will be lost.

Su Ming's father, Su Yue, was a very good example.

Originally, Su Yue was considered a leader among logistics enterprises in Nanjing.

A few years ago, in order to expand the scale of his enterprise, he started to enter the tourism market.

He spent a huge amount of money to buy a luxury cruise ship.

However, unexpected storms can arise in life.

Just after buying the cruise ship, he encountered a global pandemic.

Both the tourism and logistics industries were hit by a huge impact.

When buying the cruise ship, his funds were already tight, and he had even taken out a loan for it.

This made matters even worse.

The capital chain was already on the verge of breaking, and the entire company was in jeopardy.

Forced by helplessness, Su Yue had no choice but to use a commercial marriage to try to save the company from its current predicament.

And the target of the marriage was the eldest son of the Nanjing Li Group, Li Runze.

He was the older brother of Li Zhuoran, who had a conflict with Lin Yi a while ago.

Everyone in the Nanjing business circle knew that Su Yue had a daughter named Su Ming, who had grown up to be very beautiful.

When Li Runze met Su Ming at a party before, he developed a strong interest in her.

Such a woman was the one his Li family's eldest young master should marry.

Outstanding appearance, good family background.

Only by taking such a woman out could he save face, and only then could he reflect his own status.

Unlike his younger brother Li Zhuoran, Li Runze was not the type to live a decadent life.

He did not place that much importance on women either.

To him, the role of a wife was nothing more than a vase standing by his side to show off his taste.

What's more, the Su Family was now facing imminent bankruptcy.

Perhaps he could even take advantage of the situation and annex the Su Family's assets.

By then, he would just let Su Ming obediently stay at home as a wealthy housewife who never stepped out of the house, bearing his children and raising them at home.

This was what fit Li Runze's definition of a good wife.

And Su Ming's father had no other choice; under the current circumstances, he could only rely on the Li family's abundant financial resources.

For this reason, he and Su Ming's mother, Zhang Wanzhi, worked on Su Ming's mindset every day.

Su Ming also knew how important this company was to her father.

Since she was a child, her parents had always doted on her very much.

Now that her family was in trouble, she couldn't just turn a blind eye.

The only thing she could do seemed to be to marry Li Runze.

However...

Su Ming also understood Li Runze's character.

Perhaps after marrying Li Runze, she would never have the chance to realize her life dream of becoming a businesswoman in the business world.

In the eyes of others, being able to marry Li Runze might be a great honor.

But in Su Ming's heart, the person she wanted to spend the rest of her life with was someone with outstanding abilities whom she could genuinely admire from the bottom of her heart.

Thinking of this, a wave of bitterness arose in Su Ming's heart.

She reached out and picked up a bottle of red wine in the wine cellar, and poured herself a glass.

She drank it all in one gulp.
