173: Comparing yourself to others can make you angry
However, the angrier the other party was, the happier he became.
Once he conquered Wan Yue's divinity, he could also incidentally gain a batch of system rewards through her.
This time, he truly profited greatly.
At the same time, after these interactions with the child of destiny, Chen Tianming came to a conclusion.
Most children of destiny descend into the ranks of commoners.
Some, even with system enhancements, still appear unremarkable to outsiders.
Du Yuhang was the best example of this.
"Well then, see you tomorrow."
Chen Tianming left this sentence for Su Meng and immediately turned to leave.
The blush on Su Meng's face became even more pronounced at this moment.
Having just parted ways, her heart was racing.
It wasn't that she was frivolous, but that this man was simply too charming.
Su Meng truly couldn't control her own feelings.
"Su Meng, look at this man, so glib-tongued. Who knows what his intentions are for asking you out?"
Seeing Chen Tianming leave, Du Yuhang quickly spoke to Su Meng.
He was incredibly anxious.
Unexpectedly, the sight of his greasy face in front of Su Meng actually calmed her down.
How did that saying go?
Comparing oneself to others can be infuriating.
Chen Tianming was handsome, no less than a celebrity, and his aura was impeccable.
In contrast to Chen Tianming, Du Yuhang's already ordinary appearance now seemed even more regrettable.
"Excuse me, I think I'll go back and rest first."
Su Meng's attitude suddenly grew much colder.
She rejected Du Yuhang's further concern and immediately took her belongings back to her room.
Leaving Du Yuhang standing alone, filled with anger.
"What kind of situation is this? That kid stole all my thunder."
And he even came to his territory and tried to woo a girl he couldn't even get.
How could he swallow this indignity?
"That guy clearly isn't good news. I really don't know what Su Meng sees in him. Isn't it just money? Once I level up, won't I have as much money as I want?"
Du Yuhang muttered under his breath.
He quickly walked back into his room.
In the evening, Chen Tianming looked at the blueprints spread out on the desk, a hint of seriousness on his face.
"From here all the way to here, it's all City Villages. Originally, there were plans for development projects, but the original residents here aren't in very good conditions. They all want to make a huge fortune from the demolition."
Saying this, Zhao Xuexuan turned to look at Chen Tianming, "Why are you suddenly interested in this area?"
"I just think it's a good place to make money."
Chen Tianming's tone was calm, but he already had a plan in mind.
Didn't that Du Yuhang guy make money by renting out houses?
If he made it impossible for him to rent out houses, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes to deal with him?
"Tomorrow, bring people to inspect the site and see what this land is like. If it goes smoothly, I'll arrange a meeting with the relevant person in charge tomorrow. I want this land."
Saying this, Chen Tianming's hand rested on Zhao Xuexuan's waist.
The soft touch, just feeling it, was incredibly comfortable.
Just having an exquisite beauty like Zhao Xuexuan by his side could make one feel refreshed.
Which man wouldn't like that?
Moreover, Zhao Xuexuan's value wasn't just reflected in such places.
Chen Tianming's actions weren't overly rough, yet they stirred a subtle sensation within Zhao Xuexuan.
Even so, she endured, trying her best to keep her voice even.
"No problem, leave this matter to me. I will personally bring people there tomorrow."
Looking at the blush that appeared on Zhao Xuexuan's fair face, Chen Tianming felt a surge of heat rise up and immediately pulled Zhao Xuexuan into his arms.
"I'm relieved to leave things to you. I'm afraid I'll be out all day tomorrow, so I'll have to trouble you with the company."
"Why are you being so polite with me... Ugh!"
Zhao Xuexuan hadn't even finished her sentence when the other party directly kissed her.
Chen Tianming's kiss was domineering yet carried a hint of tenderness.
His hand gently rested on the back of Zhao Xuexuan's head, preventing her from breaking free and forcing her to respond directly to his kiss.
Zhao Xuexuan gradually succumbed to Chen Tianming's kiss, even her breathing grew heavier, and her hands began to roam restlessly over Chen Tianming's body.
"What, so impatient?"
Chen Tianming's voice carried a hint of a smile.
This caused Zhao Xuexuan's face to flush, but she could only respond with a shy smile.
Chen Tianming also found himself unable to control himself at this moment.
He directly embraced her and headed straight for the lounge.
This night was destined to be a sleepless one.
The next day, the sun was just right, warmly shining on people, making them feel incredibly warm.
Chen Tianming drove to the City Village.
To be honest, the environment here was truly not good.
If it weren't for Su Meng, he wouldn't have subjected his car to such a dilapidated place at all.
This was practically tormenting his luxury car.
And at this moment, in front of a three-story building.
Du Yuhang's eyes were wide, and he almost drooled.
"Su Meng, you're too beautiful today. Why haven't I seen you wear this dress before?"
At this moment, Su Meng was wearing a pure white long dress, her hair naturally falling behind her head, and her face was simply made up, yet she possessed an extraordinary beauty.
Just one glance could successfully ignite a man's protective instincts.
Du Yuhang was already struggling to control himself.
And Su Meng's attitude towards him was very clear.
There was almost no smile on her face.
If it weren't for the cheap rent here, she wouldn't have subjected herself to living in such a place.
"From the looks of it, are you planning to go out today? Do you want me to accompany you? I don't have anything to do today anyway."
Du Yuhang was genuinely a bit anxious at this moment.
On one hand, with a beautiful woman by his side, he really didn't want to miss this opportunity.
On the other hand, he also wanted to quickly win over Su Meng.
Su Meng's favorability was currently at zero.
Without favorability, he couldn't level up, and he couldn't even complete the system's tasks.
"No need."
Su Meng said, and looking up, she saw Chen Tianming, dressed in a suit, walking towards them.
It must be said that Chen Tianming's appearance was already good, and now with the system's enhancement, he had an even more captivating aura.
Today, he had also deliberately dressed up.
Let alone Su Meng, even other passersby couldn't help but take a second look at him, whispering among themselves.
"Did you see that? That person is too handsome, aren't they? Could they be a celebrity?"
"I wonder who he's here to find. If I had a boyfriend like that, I'd wake up smiling in my dreams."
Chen Tianming, however, completely ignored their words and walked directly up to Su Meng.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, let's go."
