How much money did you save?

Chen Xiao spent over two hours in the morning, with no classes, looking at the Jinning City map.

He circled all the areas with high future appreciation potential.

He never gave up on the idea of making money to buy a house.

Because he wasn't sure if the hidden messages would always exist.

But a house wouldn't disappear out of thin air.

Once he lost his superpower, he could still be a landlord with peace of mind and live a carefree life.

In the afternoon, Ji Yuzheng finally decided to take a shower, get cleaned up, and personally went downstairs to buy food.

“Oh, what’s this…?” Chen Xiao asked.

Although Ji Yuzheng wasn't tall, acted strangely, and had a bit of bowlegs,

He had to admit, he looked good and had excellent taste in clothes.

Dressed up, he had the vibe of a tanned Oppa.

“Class, it’s Sister Li’s class today.”

Chen Xiao realized that no one dared to skip Sister Li’s class; skipping meant failing.

“Hey? What are all these circles on your map?” Ji Yuzheng asked.

Chen Xiao chuckled, “Remember all the places I circled; maybe it will help you.”

Ji Yuzheng glanced around, “Come on, whoever remembers it, it’s theirs?”

Chen Xiao smiled and said nothing.

This was like placing a mountain of gold in front of him, yet he regarded it as dirt.

“Let’s go, to class.”

“Wait, I’ll get my keys.”

Ji Yuzheng bought a scooter with a semester’s living expenses right after military training in his freshman year.

In the campus of this era, he was simply the coolest guy.

Previously, Chen Xiao rarely rode his motorcycle because Ji Yuzheng’s favors weren't so easy to take advantage of.

If you rode his vehicle, you couldn’t refuse to bring him food, nor could you refuse to give him cigarettes.

So he preferred to walk rather than ride with him.

Upon arriving at the classroom, they, as usual, rushed to occupy the back row.

Liu Xin had arrived earlier with a classmate from the neighboring dorm and had saved a seat for Chen Xiao.

“Xiao Zi, you actually know to come to class; I haven’t seen you in days,” Shen Jiancheng said.

In his previous life, Chen Xiao, Shen Jiancheng, Liu Xin, and Wu Ling had a relatively good relationship.

It was just that after graduation, everyone went their separate ways. Although they often missed each other, they rarely contacted each other.

He didn’t even attend Shen Jiancheng and Wu Ling’s wedding because his career was very unsuccessful during that period, and he couldn’t even spare two days.

“Been busy lately.”

“What’s up? What are you secretly plotting again?”

Chen Xiao looked at Liu Xin, thinking that this guy was quite tight-lipped; he hadn’t even told Shen Jiancheng about the stock trading.

“Nothing, where’s Wu Ling?”

“Oh, she took leave to help a professional course teacher with some private work.”

Wu Ling had some talent in traditional Chinese painting, so she often received private jobs from teachers to earn some pocket money.

As they were chatting, Chen Xiao suddenly felt someone in the front row looking at him. He slightly raised his head and sharply caught that it was Tan Cheng and her best friend Liu Xiaoyan.

They were discussing something, occasionally turning their heads in his direction.

This had never happened before; Chen Xiao was like a transparent person in front of Tan Cheng.

Shen Jiancheng leaned over and teased, “Xiao Zi, your goddess is looking at you. There’s a chance; seize it quickly.”

Chen Xiao smiled, “I have many goddesses; do I have to pursue all of them? Brother, I have the will, but not the strength.”

Shen Jiancheng: “...Awesome!”

As they were talking, a figure suddenly slipped in through the back door and went straight to the empty seat beside Chen Xiao.

“Sun Ying? What are you doing here?”

“Looking for you, what else could I be doing?” Sun Ying said, looking around. “This place is nice, no surveillance, right?”

Chen Xiao: “...”

This girl, she’s not thinking of doing it here, is she? Is she here to scout out a location?

When the few guys saw Sun Ying arrive, their mouths almost watered.

The stylish, bright, sexy, and enchanting senior held a fatal attraction for them.

Especially Ji Yuzheng, who kept craning his neck to look over.

Chen Xiao couldn’t help but lower his voice and lean close to Sun Ying’s ear, saying, “I’m very curious what happened to your boyfriend Xing Yanqing that makes you need me so much.”

Sun Ying secretly pinched his thigh and whispered back, “You wouldn’t think Xing Yanqing could get me, would you?”

Chen Xiao was stunned, “You and him… didn’t?”

Sun Ying rolled her eyes, “Nonsense. You men don’t cherish what you get, so how could I easily let him succeed? Only you, you little ingrate, got a good deal.”

Chen Xiao was stunned; he hadn’t expected things to be like this…

Hahaha, Xing Yanqing, you bastard! You caused so many families to be ruined; I’ll play you to death in this life!

Looking at Chen Xiao’s profile, Sun Ying whispered, “Are you happy now?”

Chen Xiao knew she had mistaken him for a jealous little boy, but he didn’t explain. He wrapped an arm around her slender waist.

“Go to Moyin Residence on Saturday.”

“Huh? Saturday? Saturday won’t work, I have a date with Xing Yanqing.”

“Cancel it, reschedule your date with him for Sunday.”

Sun Ying thought for a moment; it would be a good way to pique Xing Yanqing’s interest. “Alright, then Saturday it is.”

“Mm, don’t forget to bring the JK uniform.”

Sun Ying pinched him again, “You little ingrate, you’re getting more and more uninhibited, like a changed person.”

Chen Xiao didn’t dwell on that topic and instead asked a question he had always been curious about.

“Why are you with Xing Yanqing?”

Sun Ying looked at him strangely, “You’re still young, you don’t understand. You’ll know when you enter society.”

“Of course, it’s for material things, money, and most importantly, connections. Otherwise, is it for desire? Someone like Xing Yanqing finishes with just a touch… not like your little ingrate’s waist, which is simply a deadly blade.”

Chen Xiao was stunned; he hadn’t expected Xing Yanqing to have such a side. Then, in his previous life, was there nothing between his wife and him?

He wasn't sure, because men who were impotent could be treated and recover.

The reason Sun Ying gave matched her age.

Constantly talking about connections, naively imagining that knowing more people, or rather, knowing more rich people, would be of great help to her future.

What they couldn’t see was that rich people all had a price list in their hearts; your worth was clearly marked.

A person’s most important connection was actually himself.

Only if you are valuable enough can you stably maintain equal connections; otherwise, you can only become a tool for others to use, because that is where your value lies.

Sun Ying had her choices and her path to walk. Chen Xiao did not correct her perception, and even if he did, she wouldn’t listen; she would only see him as a junior who understood nothing.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao suddenly had a mischievous idea and wanted to test Sun Ying.

“So, how much money have you saved?”

Sun Ying asked cautiously, “Why?”
