Chapter 221: Sanque Wants to Open a Healthcare Company
Young Master Ying pointed his finger at the Huangpu River and said slowly, "If he just has a hold on Jiang Yan, then destroy him. Let him disappear forever with his secret."
"Let's see if he's really a powerful person from outside of the capital. Oh, then just as well, we can see who wants to touch the Jiang family. Stand in line ahead of time."
Young Master Ying turned around and spread his arms wide. "So… We won't lose by any means, will we?"
Tang Dafa's face pulled out an ugly smile, but in his heart he cursed. 'You won't be at a loss. After all, no one will know that you were the one who directed it no matter how many things go wrong. But what about me? If he really is a powerful person, what should I do?'
Young Master Ying's eyes were like he could see through people's hearts, he sat back in his chair and tapped his finger on the desk. "Tang Dafa, don't you forget that Shanghai is my turf, and no one can enter it. What are you afraid of?"
"And…" Young Master Ying paused. "If you guys fight, it's your problem and we won't interfere. We'll just watch this poor kid from the Jiujiang Province. I don't know what kind of luck he has but are you afraid of him?
"Make an example out of him. Then, we'll have a meet and greet to go to the Jiang family for help. If my father manages to rise up the ranks in power… You'll be the biggest contributor."
This made Tang Dafa's eyes light up.
Seeing that Tang Dafa had been convinced, Young Master Ying leaned on the chair and closed his eyes. "I don't want to hear bad news, you know."
Seeing Young Master Ying's face like that, Tang Dafa knew that he had no right to refuse. No matter what he was thinking, he could only smile and say, "Don't worry, Young Master Ying!"
Out of the office, Tang Dafa wiped the sweat on his forehead, a bit frightened.
It was said money made the world go round, but only those who are at the top of the pyramid know that in Huaxia, there were certain people and forces you could never get around.
So now that Young Master Ying had made his request, Tang Dafa was no longer questioning whether or not to do it. Instead, it was what he had to do to accomplish the mission.
Thinking of Su Yang, Tang Dafa honestly felt that Su Yang was still a good person but he was the kind that sided with powerful people. He had befriended Su Yang to create a new beneficial relationship, but now that there were more powerful forces making an enemy of Su Yang, he could only say to Su Yang, "Sorry."
On the way back, Tang Dafa pondered on ways he could use to topple Su Yang…
He pondered. 'The only thing I have in common with him is that two million of debt. There doesn't seem to be anything else I have in common with him. I'm neither in the same industry, nor am I in the same region as him.'
'So should I start with the two million and find some way to screw him from there?
'But how do I start from this two million?' Tang Dafa's head hurt a little. The two of them had agreed to sign the IOU for six months, and there didn't seem to be any loopholes, was there?
If it really was six months, Suyang's company would have already turned around. So what was the point of asking for more money?
It would be better for him to suddenly demand the money when Su Yang had already spent it but haven't turned it around yet, and he'll find some excuse to force Su Yang to pay back the money urgently!
However, how should he go about it?
Tang Dafa frowned as he attempted to think of a solution.
The car sped through the streets of Shanghai at night, and the windows lit up like brilliant lights, lining the car with more and more… darkness.
Tang Dafa's face was partly in the light while the other half was in the dark.
Slowly, his brow grew more and more relaxed. 'Hmm… would that work?'
The car drove into the tunnel and was plunged into complete darkness.
…
At the very same moment, Su Yang sat on the dining table with his cheeks in his hands, looking at the couch in a lifeless manner.
A huge rabbit butt filled the couch, and a tall, big, fat rabbit as large as a polar bear was sitting on it, watching the television with great interest. The television was playing "Crazy Animal City"…
The rabbit was laughing so hard that the couch was even squeaking. It also had a small pair of wings on its back that would flap to the point that it almost took of when it was happy. Unfortunately, its wings were too small so it was more like decoration.
This was Little Deeny's rabbit: Fatty.
As for Little Deeny, she was also sitting on the sofa and leaned next to the rabbit while watching TV along with it, laughing incredibly happily. Next to Fatty, she was almost almost becoming a little ant, barely drawing attention to herself.
Su Yang sat at the dining table. Looking at the two, his eyes could not hide his jealousy. After looking at them for a while, Su Yang turned his head and asked Pool, "Is Fatty a male or female rabbit?"
Pool's eyes narrowed with laughter. "She's a female rabbit."
"Oh." Suo Yang was relieved… not…
Was there a difference between a male and female rabbit? Such a big rabbit walking around the house was just too much trouble!
'Let's kill and eat it! It's gotten so big so there must be a lot of meat!'
Su Yang looked at Fatty, thoughts of eating it were flying through his mind. It was such a big size that he wouldn't even be able to finish eating the meat if he ate it for a week! After roasting it, just think of the amount of rabbit meat he'd be able to enjoy!
Su Yang felt miserable. Just as he was wallowing in his sadness, Sanque hugged a flower pot and slowly crawled from the ground to the dining table. Then, it put the flower pot in front of Su Yang and crawled into it.
What was this guy doing? Su Yang looked at it and wondered what it was up to.
Sanque said, "I want to open a shop."
Open a shop? Su Yang blinked, not understanding. Didn't he already have a shop to man?
Sanque looked at Su Yang and repeated, "I want to open a shop."
'Even if you repeat it again, I still don't understand!' Su Yang looked at Pool in confusion. Pool gently explained, "Sanque is trying to open his own shop."
Su Yang was puzzled. "Didn't the milk tea shop just open up? Are you guys splitting up?"
Pool shook his head. "It's like this. Sanque and I have been talking for the past few days. The milk tea shop is on the right track. The back room is actually fine no matter who's managing it. Even now, those three little monster beans already know some simple operations, so it's perfectly fine for the three of them to be in the back room."
Su Yang replied in confusion, "So are you guys planning to open a branch?"
Pool continued shaking his head. "No. Sanque wants to open a health food store."
He took out a thumb-sized vial from his sleeve and handed it to Su Yang. "Look, this is a health supplement that Sanque and I are researching."
Su Yang took it and looked at it. The bottle was transparent, but the liquid inside was a pale yellow, making it look a bit like something Sanque diluted from ginseng water.
Su Yang looked at Pool, and surely enough, Pool confirmed his thoughts. "This is the product of Sanque's Ginseng Water after diluting it a hundred times. We tested it a little bit, and although it doesn't have the effect of regrowing bones and resurrecting the dead, it's still very beneficial to the health of the body."
Su Yang looked at the ginseng water and asked hesitantly, "But this can't be mass-produced, right? I remember Sanque's ginseng only grows 1 centimeter every two days and it grows to the length of his hand every two months."
Pool nodded. "We don't need a lot. These things are precious. We plan to cut one of Sanque's hands every two months, and that hand will be almost fifty times as effective as a one centimeter ginseng. Putting it in 300ml of water will heal a bone fracture in a very short time."
"We don't necessarily need to heal fractures either so we can dilute this 300ml of water five thousand times. That's equivalent to 1% of one centimeter of ginseng. This level of dilution will no longer have a healing effect, but if consumed over a long period of time, the oral liquid will positively affect one's health."
"Nowadays, health products are produced in 10ml bottles and we can produce 150,000 bottles by just cutting one hand off. A hand for two months is a supply of 75,000 bottles a month which is enough for our initial sales."
"If a 10ml bottle is sold at 10 yuan, with 75,000 bottles, that's over 700,000 net profit a month! It's even more substantial than a milk tea shop."
As Pool laid out their plans, Su Yang's mouth opened wider and wider. It wasn't that he was surprised by Pool's plan, but by Pool himself!
After he added a point to Pool, Su Yang thought that Pool's ability was the most useless in the house. Gru could at least be considered cute, but Pool's ability had no value except his ability to exchange a pile of fish and a piece of gold.
However, Su Yang now discovered that this guy's business acumen seemed to be amazing!
From the original milk tea shop to the current idea for Sanque's health food stores, Pool always seemed to have a lot of business plans in his head.
Su Yang couldn't help but think of that mess inherited from Junqing, and he earnestly asked Pool, "Oh Pool, are you interested in managing a company?"
"Uh." Probably not expecting Su Yang to suddenly change the topic, Pool froze before replying slowly, "Uh, okay."
Su Yang coughed. "Then do you want to manage a company for me?"
Pool pondered for a moment and said, "I'm still too far away from managing the company, and I'd rather train myself at the milk tea shop."
'Sheesh. No success.'
Although he didn't succeed, Su Yang felt that his line of thinking was fine.
He was now having more and more companies, and he was using a lot of energy to take care of all of them so he might as well try to train the little monsters to use their strengths to open and manage companies.
For example, the Find Me app and the future entertainment industry related companies can be given to Deeny. She was thriving as a netizen, and was already involved in short dramas.
He could also probably pass Junqing over to Pool to manage as Pool was super friendly and passionate about businesses. He also has a good business sense.
Come to think of it, the future health care company can be given to Sanque so it could produce and sell its own products.
As for the milk tea shop, it's nothing technical anyway. He'll just let some lazier little monster that transforms in the future to manage it. The fat female rabbit is a good candidate….
Finally, as for Qidian Technology, Su Yang felt like he could seek out a monster with tech related abilities and add points to it. Then, he could let that monster take care and manage the company.
'Well? It seems like everything has been planned out.'
Su Yang can then focus on adding points every day. It'll be perfect!
However, this plan didn't have to be executed in such a rush. In fact, it could be executed one step at a time.
As for Sanque's healthcare company, Su Yang naturally agreed without hesitation. That was another cash cow, and it also fitted the idea of wanting to change the world through special items with little monsters!
He'll definitely support it!

Chapter 222: Spending Money Like Water
Next, Su Yang, Pool and Sanque continued discussing the details of the health supplement.
They needed to make sure the health supplement was beneficial to the body.
Sanque's ginseng could cure all diseases, one centimeter could be used to treat colds, menstrual irregularities, and minor illnesses. Two centimeters could be used to heal wounds in a short period of time. These facts alone were more than enough to prove the medicinal value of the supplement.
Even if this effect was diluted, it was still good for the body. It's much stronger than those fraudulent health supplements on the market!
Su Yang felt that as long as they properly publicized the product, it would continue to spread by word of mouth. Sanque's health product would definitely be a big hit!
Who wouldn't love to drink something to stay healthy! Who wouldn't want to live a long, healthy life?
Now… what name should we call it? Sanque's Oral Fluid? That sounds a little embarrassing.
It wouldn't be mistaken for a knock-off, right?
Putting the name aside for the time being, Su Yang summoned an interface and looked it up on the internet. Opening a health care factory didn't seem to be a simple task. It required many qualifications, and the products had to be tested and verified by the health department.
The more he researched, the more troublesome Su Yang felt it was.
Moreover, he also suddenly discovered that Pool really had the potential to be a boss! He tapped into his head and tried to come up with an idea. Then, he decided to screw it all and leave it to his subordinates to work it out.
However! The problem was that Pool's solution was tempting! That, and it could make more money for him as well! He had absolutely no reason to refuse…
After chatting with Pool and Sanque, Su Yang called Deeny to his side and talked to her in a long and detailed manner, the gist of which was that it really wasn't convenient to have a pet as big as a bear at home. He had to find something for it to do, or else it'd be too destructive.
In the end, before they finished chatting, the rabbit moved its fat body, wobbled over, and belly-flopped Su Yang….
Then, it looked at Little Deeny in distress and pointed to its own stomach. It was as if Little Deeny understood sign language when she lifted her index finger and said, "You're hungry, aren't you?"
Fatty Rabbit nodded its head in aggravation.
Deeny replied quickly, "Wait for me, okay?!"
With that, she trotted off to the kitchen on her tiny legs.
After a while, she carried a few carrots to Fatty and put them on the table. "Here, eat."
Fatty picked up the carrots with its short little hands, nibbled on them twice, and with a disgusted expression on its face, threw the carrots back on the table. It's mouth formed a frown and seemed like it was about to cry.
Deeny quickly reached out to pat its… rabbit belly. "Good boy, good boy, don't cry, alright? You don't like carrots, do you? I'll find you something else."
The rabbit, as if on purpose, blossomed into a smile again when Deeny said that.
Then Little Deeny took out a cabbage from the refrigerator, washed it and brought it over. This tie, the rabbit was willing to eat it.
The rabbit sat down on the floor, and the whole floor trembled to the extent that the table was moved a few centimeters away. Then, it grabbed the cabbage, tore a leaf off and stuffed it into its mouth.
As it gobbled down the entire cabbage, its fat eyes were all squinted up in pleasure.
Su Yang was speechless as he watched the events unfold before him.
Did he feel quite neglected? Yes, he felt quite neglected!
'It's over. I've completely lost my place at home.'
In the past, even if he slightly bumped against hard object, Little Deeny would have shown a lot of concern and worry about him. However, after having the rabbit, he had become invisible in Little Deeny's eyes…. He really missed the sweet, gentle, and obedient Deeny that she was to him!
Why did this situation look so much like she was a woman who's had a baby?
According to his own junior high school classmate who sold pens in Jiujiang County, his wife was particularly nervous about him when he first got married. She would watch him all day long, from the time he left for the stationery store until he got off work. If he were just a little late to come home, she would bombard him with phone calls to check up on him.
When he went to chat online, his wife had to be within a two-meter radius while doing her duties at home and her eyes would glance at his phone or computer from time to time. He was getting tired of this. Every day, he wanted to run away and leave the house.
However, as soon as the child was born, his wife changed completely and her heart was set on the child. She began to ignore him.
He also began turning into an a*shole. Every day, he would feel jealous of his child and attempt to attract his wife's attention, hoping that his wife would care more about him but in the end, nothing changed.
He used to be the most precious one in the family, but that's gone forever.
Yes, that was right. There were quite a few cases of de facto marriages in the countryside that happened to children below the legal age.
If Su Yang hadn't passed the exam, he might have been talking about marriage now.
Even if he didn't, Su Yang still had a taste of what it was like to be married, and he felt like he was the husband who was abandoned after having a child.
He sighed, covered his broken heart and walked upstairs while forcing himself to think. 'Sleep, I should sleep. If I sleep, I'll dream that I have everything…'
The next day, Su Yang returned to the school that he hadn't been to in a long time.
After skipping classes for nearly a week, Su Yang felt much closer to school. However… Chu Xia wasn't very friendly.
"Su Yang! You have the nerve to come to school!" Chu Xia was wearing a dress, but her movements were quite overbearing. "Do you know how I've been spending my week?"
Su Yang looked at her carefully. "Drinking? Bungee jumping?"
Chu Xia's face stiffened for a moment and she got even angrier. "I spent the entire week helping you make up excuses!"
Chu Xia grabbed Su Yang aside and said in an exasperated voice, "So far, you've had a cold and broken arm five times in a row. Your stomach has hurt three times and your cousin has been in two accidents!"
"At the end of the day, I couldn't make it up any longer and you were late, so all I could say was that you had broken a bone!"
Su Yang was stunned.
Chu Xia continued, "Teacher asked me why I sid you broke your bones when you told her you had a cold! I just said that when you went to get a sling for that broken arm of yours, you got a cold because nobody was there to take care of you so you had to eat take-out. As a result, you didn't take care of your food intake and you got a call that your cousin had been in an accident when you were going to the bathroom. So, when you rushed out, you hit the door of the hospital and broke your bones."
Su Yang was speechless.
Chu Xia's ability to make up this nonsense was making her seem more and more like him.
Su Yang smiled, then went around to the back of Chu Xia and gave her a squeeze on the shoulder. "Chu Xia, you've really worked hard. Why don't I treat you to dinner tonight."
Chu Xia wrinkled her nose and snorted. "Do you think I'm doing it for that meal of yours?!"
Su Yang quickly gave her a gentle massage and said, "No, no. You're doing this for me."
Chu Xia's face blushed and she said, "Nonsense! I just wanted to tell you that… you should just skip another week of classes."
Su Yang's hand stopped on Chu Xia's shoulder, and he looked confused. 'What did I just hear? Did I hear that wrong?'
Chu Xia whispered, "I don't know how to explain myself, since I just told the teacher yesterday that you broke your bones and yet, you're alive and kicking today! How am I going to explain this to the teacher? I won't be able to make any excuses for you in the future!"
Su Yang was speechless.
'I never thought that I would one day be kicked out of school by Chu Xia. It's unimaginable…'
Fortunately, Chu Xia was just ranting in an attempt to vent her frustration at Su Yang not coming to school for many days so she didn't really kick him out.
Of course, the other reason was… Today's class wasn't with the teacher with whom she told he had broken his leg.
After class, Su Yang received a call from the finance manager of his company. "Director Su, the Entrepreneur Park management asked us to pay the expenses other than the deposit for the office space, and said it has been delayed for several days. In addition, they said we were buying a large area, so we'll have to put down one month's rent as a security deposit and pay three months worth of rent in total. "
With Tang Dafa's two million as a guarantee, it was easier for Su Yang to make decisions on these matters. "It's fine. It's according to the normal process. It's as normal as it is. You've been dealing with them in Junqing, and the park can't cheat you of the money."
The finance manager replied, "Okay, Director Su."
After talking about this, the finance manager continued, "There's one more thing, Director Su. This Friday is the Dragon Boat Festival, and according to the norm, our company should distribute holiday gifts to our employees as well as cooperative customers. The manager of the administration and logistics department has already submitted the budget."
Su Yang asked, "Send me a copy, and I'll take a look at it. If there's no problem, I'll sign it, and you can send it out."
"Okay, Director Su."
After a few minutes, a detailed list of gifts was sent to Su Yang's mailbox. He opened it and looked at it. With Junqing's capability, the efficiency of the company's work wasn't really the same as what he was used to.
The categories on it were very clear. According to the ranking of each employee, there were different levels of gifts. For example, the Dragon Boat Festival gift for ordinary employees was about 300 yuan. The team leader gets about 500, the manager gets about 800, while the general assistant and general manager gets about 1200.
As for the cooperative companies, they were divided into several different grades according to the size of the company, the amount of cooperation they had between them, and their level of relationship.
This was the one that incurred a big expense.
Since the former Junqing and the current Qidian E-commerce were going through a merger, they had to continue relying on building and maintaining relationships to make business work. All aspects had to be well prepared and looked into.
For this festival, Su Yang calculated that he'd actually have to spend more than seventy thousand!
'Geez, it's hard owning a company. Adding in the morning session venue fee… It'll still cost 12,000 a month after the discount, which is close to 50,000.
'Just a phone call and 120,000 is gone.'
Su Yang now believed it when the finance manager said the original Qidian E-commerce company account that spent only tens of thousands wasn't enough.
Su Yang sent a copy of the gift specifications to Wang Dong to confirm that there was nothing fishy about it and signed it.
As for how he signed it. Now, everything was done electronically so a digital signature through his mobile phone was just as effective.
After school, Su Yang was, once again, thinking about Sanque's healthcare company.
The healthcare company required many complicated things. Food Production Permit, Management and Health Permit, production samples and setting up the factory. These were all very troublesome things.
If all these were done, it would take a long time. Not to mention, the initial cost was also quite significant. In fact, it seemed better if he directly acquired one.
Su Yang pondered. 'I'm not sure how much a health product production company costs. If there's a cheap one… I probably won't even need to get a new factory or equipment. All I have to do is buy a shell company and use it's permits.'
Thinking of this, Su Yang gave Tang Jing a call and asked if she had any resources in this area. She replied and said she'd keep an eye out for it for Su Yang.
Back home, Deeny was shooting a new episode of the monster family video. This time, a new character would appear — the rabbit named Fatty.

Chapter 223: Should I Add A Point to Janet?
Deeny clearly thinks of this fat rabbit as her own daughter, as she shot a lot of scenes involving the rabbit.
The rabbit sat on the ground in the yard eating cabbage alone while Deeny filmed it for almost half an hour. 'I don't know what's so great about eating a cabbage.'
Then the fat rabbit slowly crawled up from the ground when it heard Little Dee's greetings, and its pair of small short hands lifted its stomach like how people lifted their pants.
Suddenly, its belly fluctuated like a wave, bouncing…
Su Yang covered his own eyes and couldn't bring himself to look at this. 'It was so cringy!
'Filming something like this wouldn't ruin the Monsters Family series, would it?'
Su Yang was a little worried.
However… He had time now so he decided to finish up the post-editing for the video himself and save the monster family!
Thinking this way, Su Yang didn't intend to leave and simply went to the study. Then, he took out the [Small bench that refuses to eat melons] and moved it to the villa entrance.
Finding a spot where he could see Little Deeny shooting, Su Yang put down the bench, then patted his butt and sat on it.
After sitting on it, Su Yang had a bit of a different feeling. 'Why is this bench so small?'
Feeling like he had to curl up his butt to sit down, to the point where half of his bottom was exposed, Su Yang moved his butt to make himself as comfortable as possible.
When he adjusted his position, a small box of melon seeds, half a watermelon, a small bucket of popcorn and a bottle of Fat Nerd Merry Drink automatically appeared under his feet.
Because it was the first time he used the ability of this special item, Suo Yang didn't know anything about these things either. He picked up the items one by one and tried them out, and yes… It was all true!
Finally, he picked up the bottle of Fat Nerd Merry Drink, and sheesh~ it was actually cold!
In the middle of summer, with a chilled bottle of Fat Nerd Merry Drink in hand, life couldn't be more perfect!
Opening the bottle cap, Su Yang took a sip of ice-cold Fat Nerd Merry Drink. The bubbles exploded in his mouth and the feeling simply cooled his body. 'Ah… This penetrating cold really sends the heart flying!'
After drinking the Fat Nerd Merry Drink, Su Yang picked up the melon, then ate it while watching Little Dee shoot.
Little Deeny was a kind of AI, and she was now learning increasingly more AI skills exceedingly fast. In just a short two weeks, her short video shooting skills improved amazingly, to the point where Su Yang was even dazzled by it. At times, the camera would circle the fat rabbit and other times, the camera would pan over the top from a distance. Su Yang got dizzy just from watching her.
After a while, Little Hus furtively came over. He didn't notice Su Yang and seemed really casual, not doing anything in particular.
Su Yang casually handed it a handful of melon seeds. "Want some?"
Little Hus was shocked. "Since when were you here?"
Su Yang looked at it. "I've been here all along."
After looking at Su Yang and then at the melon seeds, Little Hus hesitated and then accepted them.
It took the melon seeds, then threw them to the ground, stepped hard on it to immediately crack the shells before picking them up one by one. It used its pillowy edges to pick along the cracks to open them.
Picking out the melon kernels, its little pillow edges sends the melon into the patterns on its pillowy body so it couldn't get them in no matter how hard it tried.
After a while, it resigned itself to its fate, and handed the handful of melon seeds to Su Yang after picking them apart.
Su Yang didn't mind since the ground was clean anyway. So, he took the melon seeds and ate them.
Naturally… Something that was peeled by others for him was exceptionally fragrant.
Little Hus looked at Su Yang sideways as he ate the melon seeds one by one, and gulped as it asked, "Is it good?"
Su Yang looked at it and nodded. "It's especially fragrant."
Little Hus gulped again, looked at the melon seeds in Su Yang's hand and smacked his lips. "Mmm… I don't know what the melon seeds taste like. It should… It must smell better than roasted chicken." Saying that, it gulped again.
Su Yang was amused by it. "Spoken as if you've eaten roast chicken."
Little Hus was unconvinced. "I've never eaten it! But I've smelled it!" Then its tone weakened. "But… This melon doesn't even have a bit of smell to it…"
Su Yang patted its head, this poor little guy.
When Su Yang finished eating the melon seeds, Little Hus leaned in again. "Su Yang, can I ask you for something?"
Su Yang looked at it, he didn't expect Little Hus to beg him for a favor, ever. "Go ahead."
Ha said, a little embarrassed, "Can you give Janet an extra point the next time you get a random point?"
Su Yang hesitated for a moment, but the things he had discovered before had slowly transformed the little monster from "his own thing" to "his own family", and in the face of a little brother's request, Su Yang still couldn't bear to refuse.
So he finally nodded his head. "Okay."
After promising, Su Yang added, "But wait until I have a few extra points, I have a random point now, but I'd like to keep it as a backup."
Little Hus nodded repeatedly, his face all happy. "It's fine, it's fine! Just add a point to it if you can!"
After being happy, the guy started to float, his two little horns touching as it looked up at the sky with a longing face. "I wish my Janet could have sentience! It'd be even better if it took human form! This way the two of us will be able to be a couple~ Haha."
Su Yang laughed.
This dreamy little Hus definitely did not take after him.
After spitting out the shells, Su Yang continued to watch Little Deeny's shoot. Little Hus, on the other hand, seemed like it had a surge of energy as it continued refilling melon seeds from the ones scattered on the ground before giving them to Su Yang after stepping on them and picking the shells. It was as if he had made picking melon seeds kernels into a "big business"!
'Well… It's good to have a boot licker.'
…
Meanwhile, in the General Manager's Office at Dafa Gold Shop.
Tang Dafa sat behind the boss' desk with his assistant leaning on him, while a spectacled man sat in front of the boss desk.
He pushed the information on the table to Tang Dafa and said, "Mr. Tang, I've already told you all the loopholes on this IOU, how to prove it all, and I've even explained how you can freeze his assets."
He pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose. "The only question left now is when you want to do it."
Tang Dafa hugged the assistant and said, "When would you feel is a better time to do this?"
The man with the glasses replied, "It's best to launch it at the point when he's almost out of money but while he doesn't have any short-term funds to mobilize. That'd be the best time to strike."
The assistant said petulantly, "However, we don't have any way to confirm when he's going to spend all his money."
The man with the glasses nodded. "We really have no way of knowing, but we can encourage him to spend the money on things like cars, houses, luxuries, women, games, etc., He'll always have something he likes. Why don't we just introduce these to him…"
Tang Dafa nodded thoughtfully.
Just as the three of them were chatting, suddenly loud noises came from outside the door, and a woman with a heavy Shanghainese accent yelled, "You guys, let me in! Why can't I go in to see my own husband?!"
There was another boy who was trying hard to dissuade her. "No, lady boss, Mr Tang is discussing something and is in the middle of a conversation."
The woman retorted in a gloomy voice, "Talking about business? I think he's hooking up with a vixen!"
Hearing that woman's voice, Tang Dafa's face turned pale, and he immediately retracted his arm from around the assistant before winking to her.
The assistant gave him a flirtatious glance, then wiggled her waist and got up, going to the side.
A few seconds later, the door was pushed open with great force and a woman who looked very much like Tang Dafa and had an equally huge body rushed in.
As soon as she entered, she saw Tang Dafa and the man with glasses sitting on either side of the boss table, while the assistant was pouring water for both of them.
Upon seeing this scene, the woman froze in place.
Tang Dafa's expression turned icy cold as he snapped at the woman at the door. "What are you doing! Don't you know to act better when you're in the shop?!"
As he said this, his heavy hand slapped the table. "Bang!" It made the assistant so fearful that her hands began to tremble while the woman at the door shivered even more.
The man with glasses took his glasses off, pulled out a piece of eyeglass cloth from his pocket, bowed his head and wiped it slowly as if he hadn't seen or heard anything. However, his lips were curved in a mocking smile.
Tang Dafa pointed at the door and shouted at the fat lady, "Go home!"
The fat woman didn't dare to say anything more as she turned around with an ugly expression and walked away without hesitation.
After the woman left, Tang waved a hand to signal to the assistant to close the door, as a smile was plastered all over his face once more. "Mr. Jia, sorry you had to see that. As for the matter at hand, thank you for the plan. Let's hope it works."
Mr. Jia put on his glasses and raised his head, putting a harmless smile back on his face. "Mr. Tang, you're too polite. You pay, I plan. It's only natural."
After saying that, he put the glasses cloth back into his pocket and continued. "If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first. Congratulations in advance for crushing that scum who owes you money."
Tang Dafa smiled widely and stood up. "Let me see you out. I'll see you out."
…
In the evening, Su Yang finished his meal and was just about to go watch something on the television when he received a call from Tang Dafa.
For this big gold master who paid him 2 million and helped him through a difficult time, Su Yang liked him very much indeed.
He picked it up and said enthusiastically, "Brother Tang, where do you even find the time to call me? Is there something you need?"
Tang Dafa's equally enthusiastic voice came from across the room. "Haiya, what are you saying? Can't I call you even for no particular reason? I just missing you, buddy!"
Afterward, he paused. "Have you been busy lately, brother?"
Su Yang smiled and replied, "I'm fine. The company is on the right track, and I'm relatively more relaxed."
Tang Dafa chuckled. "Oh… Then, do you want to meet up tomorrow? I see you're lacking a car, my brother. You can't run a company without a car!"
Su Yang smiled like a blooming flower. "Oops! Brother Tang, you just loaned me $2 million and now, you want to give me a car, that's far too polite of you! No, really! I don't even have a driver's license, so I don't want a car!"
Tang Dafa was stunned, and his expression froze. 'He thought I was going to give him a car? What?'
However, he was a man of the world, and he could only deal with it awkwardly. "Ah, well, that's unfortunate. Brother, remember to go learn how to drive when you have time."
Su Yang enthusiastically promised. "No problem! No problem! I'll definitely go learn to drive when I have the time."
Hanging up the phone, Tang Dafa was a little skeptical of life. 'Why would he think that I was about to give him a car? Good thing he doesn't have a license…
'No, he won't buy a car if he doesn't have a license…
'It looks like the car route won't work… Seems like we'll have to find another way.'
And Su Yang, who hung up the phone, was all smiles as he shook his head and lamented, "This Tang Dafa is really too polite. He just lent me 2 million and now, he's planning to give me a car."
"What a nice man!"
Just as Su Yang was lamenting, Pool and Sanque returned from work.
With a flash of green light, the two of them appeared in the middle of the living room.
Su Yang saw Pool and beckoned, "Pool, come here for a moment."
Pool was a little confused and put Sanque on the dining table before he came to Su Yang. "Master Su Yang, what's up?"
Su Yang said, "Little Hus talked to me today and wanted me to give Janet an extra point so they can be lovers. Although… I can't catch Janet, so I'll need your help."
"Can you catch Janet with a bubble just like you caught the squid?"
"Add a point to Janet?" When Pool heard this, his expression was first a little awkward before it turned into a strange one. "Master Su Yang, I hope you'll consider this carefully. There's… There might be some misunderstanding."

Chapter 224: System Store: The Teddy Bear That Loves to Play Hide and Seek
"Some misunderstanding?" Hearing Pool's words, Su Yang was a little puzzled. "What misunderstanding?"
Pool was a little embarrassed and moved a chair to sit across from Su Yang. Then, his mouth opened a few times but he was unable to say anything.
This was the first time he saw Pool showing such a look, Su Yang was really curious.
He planned to give Janet an extra point but what kind of misunderstanding could there be? Could it be that Janet is a fake?
Pool deliberated for a moment. Then, still biting his tongue, he said, "Master Su Yang. Actually, Janet is a male shark."
Su Yang replied after considering it for awhile, "There's no difference between a male shark and a female shark, as long as I can add a point to it. It doesn't make any difference whether Fatty is a male or female rabbit, he'll make this his home anyway…"
Halfway through his speech, Su Yang had a sudden realisation!
That's pretty different!
It didn't matter whether Fatty was male or female, it'll mess up the house anyway! But Janet is Little Hus's crush!
It made a huge difference, and Janet's gender was a huge deal!
Su Yang opened his mouth and his voice was an octave higher, "Did you say that Janet is a male?!"
Pool hushed Su Yang and carefully said, "Master Su Yang, you're talking too loudly…"
Su Yang quickly covered his mouth, but his eyes were wide open, looking at Pool while waiting for his explanation.
With an embarrassed face, Pool continued, "This is a real misunderstanding. I'm just a pool god, not an ocean god, and I don't know how to differentiate the gender of a shark."
"It was during one early morning that Little Hus summoned Janet, and I was very sleepy at that time. After summoning it, Little Hus kept saying that Janet was beautiful, good looking, and he really fancied her."
"After that, it asked me if Janet was a male or female, how could I tell the difference, plus I was sleepy, so I went along with it and said it was… A female."
Su Yang was speechless.
'This is a big misunderstanding.
'I didn't think Pool could make such a mistake.
'It's not easy to handle.'
Su Yang frowned and was silent.
If he didn't speak, Pool didn't dare to speak either as it patiently sat on the chair.
The room fell silent…
After a while, Su Yang raised his head. "Hey, can we change Janet's gender?"
Pool's gentle face was filled with awkwardness.
Su Yang sighed. "Sigh, seems not."
It wasn't about the possibility of changing its gender. Even if one could, who'd volunteer to conduct the surgery?!
Just as the two were slumped with silence, Little Hus bounced in from the living room. Seeing Su Yang, it happily waved its little edges. "Hi, Su Yang, good evening."
Su Yang squeezed out a smile that seemed far worse than crying. "Good evening."
Little Hus didn't notice Su Yang's expression and bounced off to the pool, looking like he was going to feed Janet.
'That silly kid didn't even know that he was in love with a male shark.'
Su Yang and Pool looked at each other, then sighed together.
Oh, what evil fate!
Su Yang felt like he was doing an incredibly right thing by not promising Little Hus to give Janet an extra point right away!
'At least there was a buffer!
'Even if I had a buffer, Janet couldn't be a mother…
'What do we do? What despair!'
That night, Su Yang helped Deeny do a bit of post-processing on the new episode of the Monster Family video, with subtitles, special effects, and… purposefully reducing the fat rabbit's scenes by a lot.
'That's what editing is all about… No matter how much you shoot, I can still cut it out. Hahaha.'
Su Yang felt like he was really childish for wanting to compete with a fat rabbit, and a fat female rabbit at that. But… He liked it!
'Since you're stealing Deeny away from me, I'll cut out all of your presence from the video!'
After finishing the post-production work, Su Yang sent the video to Deeny but she didn't say anything. It was probably because Su Yang's post-production skills were better. Although Fatty didn't have a lot of footage, the overall effect was rather more brilliant than the first three episodes of the Monster Family.
The next day was Friday.
At school, before classes started, Su Yang received a call from the finance manager. "Mr. Su. There's something I'd like to ask you for advice."
Su Yang looked at the time and replied. "Spit it out."
The finance manager replied, "It's like this. The employees have all joined the company, and I need to submit their social security according to government regulations. Is our company paying them as usual or do we pay them the minimum?"
Su Yang was puzzled and asked, "What's the difference between these two?"
The finance manager explained, "Alright, the regular way would be to fill in the form according to how much the employee's salary is, and all five insurance policies are deducted by the state in proportion. The minimum way would be to fill in a low salary and pay according to the minimum standard set by the state."
Su Yang asked, "Isn't this illegal?"
The finance manager replied, "It's a grey area. A lot of companies do it because it saves corporate costs. After all, it's not a good time to own a business."
Su Yang continued, "What about Junqing?"
The finance manager said. "We pay the premiums as usual."
Su Yang didn't hesitate anymore. "Do it accordingly then."
Now that Qidian E-commerce was no longer a new company and had a turnover of more than two million each month with a million in profit, they should follow the law and grow bigger to develop even further, rather than managing the company in a shady manner.
Although his ability to use [Verbal Cannon] can fool them a moment, it wouldn't fool the entire world. It could mobilize employees, but there was no way to brainwash them long-term.
If he wanted them to continue working hard, he had to take care of their welfare and treat them well.
That was why Su Yang decided to continue providing the staff equal treatment from when it was Junqing's time. After all, even if he became a capitalist in the future, he planned to be a capitalist with a conscience!
The finance manager complied. "Okay, Director Su. Then I'll report it as per usual. Social security is deducted every month around the 16th to the 20th. With more than 70 people in our company, it's around 210,000 yuan."
'Sheesh . . more than 200,000 ah. All the insurance required every month is more than 200,000 yuan. Su Yang felt a little pain in the flesh.'
However, he still added, "Right, remember to report to Wang Dong, Chen Xiaoyun, Liu Wei and all of them together. In addition, they didn't get paid for the insurance when they worked at Qidian E-commerce before, so give them last month's as well."
The finance manager replied, "Okay, Mr. Su."
Hanging up the phone, Su Yang was just about to go to class, but Little Deeny rang him.
Su Yang's ears rang with Little Deeny's voice, "Master, it's a call from Tang Dafa."
As soon as he heard the phone call from the big gold boss, Su Yang suddenly opened his eyes and smiled again. If not for the two million emergency loan from Tang Dafa, he probably would've lost all the money on him just from paying for his staff's social security.
So, Su Yang picked up the phone, "Brother Tang, what do you want to see me about today?"
Tang Dafa replied enthusiastically, "Ah Brother Su. I was thinking last night, since you don't have a driver's license, do you want to consider buying an office building? Your company isn't so small now, and always renting a house in the park seems very classless. Do you want to buy your own floor and move out of the office?"
When Su Yang heard this, he smiled and said, "Brother Tang, you wanted to give me a car yesterday, and today you are actually planning to give me a building? Let's forget about this, we just paid our quarterly rent, and it'd be a waste if we don't live there. After all, High-Tech Park is close to my house!"
Su Yang was not stupid, but he really thought that Tang Dafa planned to gift him a car and a house.
It was because he used an hourglass to check Tang Dafa's memories! Tang Dafa mistook him for a second generation tycoon from the capital, and that he was very influential! That was why Tang Dafa approached him to befriend him!
In his memory, befriending Su Yang and spending less than five million was acceptable to him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lent Su Yang the money after gifting him the golden horse and without batting an eyelid! In his mind, he could have thrown the two million away for nothing!
That's also why Su Yang, despite having seen his memories made such a misjudgment…
Tang Dafa was dumbfounded on the other end of the phone. 'How did he frame in in a way that I wanted to give him something again?'
Tang Dafa had a momentary suspicion that Su Yang was a psychopath. To somehow think that someone was going to give him something. What would he be if he wasn't a psychopath?
After all… He didn't know that Su Yang could see into other people's memories…
Tang Dafa was all dumbfounded on the other end of the phone, how did it become that he was going to give him something again?
Tang Dafa leaned on his chair, having a bit of a headache. ;How is this kid so difficult to deal with? How do I lure him if he won't take the bait? How do you get him to spend money then?!
After hanging up the phone, Su Yang also had a bit of a headache. 'How am I going to run a large company if I don't spend this money? Sigh, just a week passed and I've already spent almost three hundred thousand. It really is like spending money like water.'
For the next two days, Tang Dafa had been trying to ask Su Yang out to get high, or to buy luxury goods, but Su Yang still thought Tang Dafa was trying to impress him, so he turned down all of his offers.
At the same time, Qidian E-Commerce had finally slowly taken over all of Junqing's business after half a month of development.
Although they still lost about 15% of their business in the end, they had finally stabilized everything. In the future, the revenue of Qidian E-Commerce would be almost 85 percent of Junqing's, which was still more than 1.7 million with a net profit of almost 600,000 a month or seven million a year.
Of course, this adjustment period during the past half a month also led to Qidian E-Commerce using up their funds like water. After all, it costs money to invite guests to eat, to communicate with them to build a relationship also costs money. Even changing the contract terms to build relationships cost money.
In just half a month, Qidian E-commerce spent almost 300,000 yuan overall to build and maintain relationships with their business contacts. The two million was now only 1.3 million yuan…
Su Yang knew all this, but he wasn't worried. After all, Qidian E-Commerce will have a steady stream of income starting from next month.
As long as he survived another half a month, a better tomorrow awaited him!
On Sunday, Su Yang was resting at home.
Well, the weekend was a time for harvest. A week's worth of points had been saved up, and items were going to be swiped from the system store. It was time to exchange them all!
Su Yang looked at his point coin count, and it had risen from 399 to 701. He could now buy another random point.
Remembering his promise to Little Hus to give Janet an extra point, Su Yang hesitated. 'Forget it, let's look at the exchange items first.'
Opening the system store, Su Yang looked at the last item in the system store, which was a dirty teddy bear that looked a bit worn out.
Su Yang clicked on the picture of that teddy bear, and an interface popped up in front of him — [Teddy Bear that loves to play hide-and-seek].
'Oh? It has a name?'
Su Yang was surprised. He thought it had to be some kind of "teddy bear with unknown powers".
However, a hide-and-seek teddy bear? Why does this description feel like it's a little monster?
Did the store allow him to redeem monsters?
Su Yang was a bit hesitant but no matter what, he wanted to get it!
When the exchange is settled, everything would be explained!

Chapter 225: Sacrificing A Little Monster Bean That Looks Like It's About to Die
Clicking on the recipe item, the store showed a 1 item, a teddy bear, a piece of cloth, 2 zippers, and 10 buttons…
Well, it was strange as usual, but Su Yang was already used to it.
He clicked on it to look at the process of making it and found that this time it was actually something handmade, and he had to sew all the items onto the teddy bear.
'Uh. That was pretty strange.'
Finally, there was a different way to make something. Before, it always required boiling and stewing, and it always made Su Yang hungry. Now that he was required to sew things, his own stomach finally didn't have to suffer.
Since there were no such things at home, Su Yang still went out of his virtual space to buy them.
Buttons, zippers, fabric, and a bunch of other things were needed so he ran to a few convenience stores and got them. However, he couldn't find any teddy bears from ordinary stores.
Su Yang thought about it, this kind of thing was probably available in gift shops. There was one next to his school so he could go to the gift shop again without stopping.
Pushing the door of the gift shop, Su Yang heard a familiar and sunny voice before buying anything, "Miss, you are so beautiful, you must have saved the world in your previous life, right?"
Su Yang followed the voice and looked over as his eyes flashed. It was Qu Xuan.
Qu Xuan was wearing a sweatshirt, his hand propped on the shelf next to the cashier's desk, and his body emitting a strong scent of testosterone. He was smiling confidently, showing his white, straight teeth, looking sunny and handsome while flirting with the gift shop's… female cashier.
The female cashier had thick brown wavy hair, and her eyes were like peach blossoms. Her right hand was on the counter, and she was looking at Qu Xuan with her head tilted, her left hand's long white fingers were strangling the hair hanging down from the side of her ear while wearing a smile with a style different from the Han Chinese.
After looking at Qu Xuan for a few seconds, that woman's left hand let go of her own hair and brushed across the tip of her own nose as she said with slight disgust. "Uh, boy… you do know you've got… body odor, right?"
Qu Xuan's face turned pale as he dropped his hands and clenched his armpits, his whole face turning a crimson red. "How could that be! I do NOT!"
The woman's white hand fanned out in front of her nose. "You really do. I didn't expect that after saving the world in my previous life, that I'd actually die from a skunk's fart in this life."
Qu Xuan was red-faced and was just about to explain, but he turned his head and saw Su Yang. He couldn't help but be even more embarrassed and didn't know whether he should explain himself or greet his friend first.
In the end, he greeted Su Yang before explaining himself. "Chairman. When did you arrive?"
Su Yang held back a laugh. "I've just arrived. What happened to you guys, I didn't see anything."
Qu Xuan was speechless.
Without paying any more attention to the female cashier, Qu Xuan came to Su Yang's side, then looked around curiously. "Chairman, what are you doing in a gift shop? Are you also buying gifts?"
Su Yang didn't deny and nodded. "Yes, I'm going to buy a teddy bear."
"A teddy bear?" Quyen thought for a moment, then said decisively, "I suggest you buy a box of chocolates instead. The person you're giving it to must really like chocolates."
He quietly added, "Although she cries while eating it every time, she really likes it."
Su Yang looked at him in confusion. 'What was this guy thinking? Who am I giving it to? Who's the one who likes chocolates?'
After giving Su Yang an idea, Qu Xuan proudly patted his shoulder. "Remember to buy some chocolates, Chairman. I'll leave you alone now!"
As he said that, he was preparing himself to leave but Su Yang couldn't help himself from asking, "You were flirting with the cashier lady halfway, don't you want to continue?"
Qu Xuan waved his hand. "There's nothing to continue. I rely on my face to flirt with people. If you encounter a lady who can't be flirted with like this one, you should just move on to the next target."
With that, Qu Xuan pushed the door open and walked out.
Su Yang was speechless.
So this is the legendary technique of 'casting the net widely to catch fish'? The world of scum like this was really hard to understand.
After Qu Xuan left, Su Yang strolled around the gift shop and finally took a cheap teddy bear.
When he went to the cashier, the lady was humming a song, playing with her hair, watching a play, and exuding an unexplainable quality all over…
That was the kind of temperament that women like this exuded. At a glance, she seemed like an open-minded person who was excited about life, was someone who'd go out to play, explore, and dance.
Su Yang put the teddy bear on the cashier and said, "Hello."
The cashier lady looked up at Su Yang and smiled with her beautiful, peach blossom eyes. "Hello there. Is this the only one?"
Su Yang nodded. "Yeah, that's right."
The cashier lady picked up the scanner and scanned it. "56 yuan please."
Su Yang pulled out Little Deeny, opened Alipay, and paid the bill.
The lady commented, "Your phone is beautiful. What brand is it?"
Su Yang used his usual excuse, "It's from a friend's company, it hasn't been mass-produced yet."
"Oh…" The lady looked at Su Yang thoughtfully. "You wouldn't be, that… That Su Yang, right?"
Su Yang was confused. "Do you know me?"
Her peach blossom eyes smiled and they looked really beautiful. "Yeah. You're the man of the hour in our school. You sing beautifully, and you even started a company. Wasn't that work-study app made by you?"
Su Yang nodded. "Yes."
She extended her pearl-like hand. "Hello. My name is Xu Lu, I'm a sophomore in the dance department, and I'm working part-time in this gift shop through your work-study app."
"Oh, hello. Hello!" Su Yang even stretched out his hand to shake with Xu Lu. He really didn't expect that he'd buy something and meet a user of his app. 'What a surprise.'
Su Yang sized up the cashier lady and asked tentatively, "Senior sister, are you a Dai?"
Xu Lu smiled and said, "Yes. I'm a Dai. Is it that obvious?"
As she said that, her feminine hand stretched upwards and made a peacock dance gesture, looking very elegant.
Su Yang nodded his head evenly, "Nice, nice. It's just that I had a feeling that you were a Dai when I saw your temperament."
The cashier lady covered her mouth and laughed. "Yes, we Dai have been carrying peacocks to school since we were kids."
Pfft…
Su Yang almost spurted out.
'This lady was too funny and active, right?'
For some reason, the lady in front of him was not interested in Qu Xuan, but was quite interested in Su Yang, and had been pestering Su Yang to chat for half an hour. Only after Su Yang gave her his WeChat did she let him go.
Probably the first time encountering such an enthusiastic lady, Su Yang couldn't help but be a little overwhelmed. After giving her his WeChat, and after carrying things out of the gift shop was he relieved.
Women were surely like tigers and passionate women were hungry tigers indeed.
Li Runze really did not lie to him when he said women were a burden. Su Yang looked at the time. He planned to use half an hour to buy a bunch of things and a teddy bear but it actually took him more than 40 minutes in the gift shop. 'This is just a waste of life!'
When he got home, Su Yang didn't waste any more time, he took out the things he had bought and sat down on the sofa and began his handmade handiwork.
He fixed an instructional video in front of his eyes, threaded the needle, and followed the steps in the video. He began sewing buttons and zippers onto the teddy bear.
Fortunately, coming from a poor background, he'd been forced to pick up survival skills and mature earlier. Although Su Yang's needlework wasn't that good, he was still someone who grew up in rural areas and mended his own socks after all so the sewing looked decent.
As he continued sewing the teddy bear, Little Hus passed by and saw Su Yang. It happily greeted, "Hi, Su Yang."
"Tsk." Su Yang was pricked by a needle.
Little Hus's voice was now like a curse to him. He covered his hands and said to Little Hus, "Hi, Little Hus."
Little Hus held its head high and went to the pool happily.
Su Yang was speechless.
'O evil fate!'
Su Yang shook his head and continued sewing, and as one item after another was all sewn onto the teddy bear, his work on the teddy bear reached the final step — sewing the 1 item into the teddy bear's body.
Su Yang coughed and stood up, intending to see which little monster bean to sacrifice.
If you were wondering why he didn't just sacrifice the super tiny monster beans, it was because they haven't given birth yet or when they had already given birth so they could no longer reproduce.
The super tiny monster beans haven't awakened so they wouldn't explode but little monster beans could explode at any moment…
Arriving at the courtyard, Su Yang walked around the courtyard sizing up the little monster beans. After walking halfway, Fatty appeared next to him out of nowhere, causing him to crash into Fatty's bulging belly. Since Su Yang almost fell from it, he looked at Fatty and thought, 'This guy was simply too lawless!'
Fatty ignored Su Yang and continued to strut around, then stepped on a little monster bean and crushed it into the soil…
Su Yang's eyes were bright, and he couldn't care less about Fatty, so he hurriedly walked over and dug out the little monster bean that had been trampled into the soil.
The little monster bean had fainted, and the only one eye on the bean was twirling around in dizziness. Su Yang looked at the little monster bean and shook his head, "Hey, this little monster bean seems to be no good. Let's sacrifice it. Hey, blame it on Fatty!"
With that, Su Yang carried the unconscious little monster bean upside down with its two legs pointing upwards. He then returned to the living room, and sewed it into the teddy bear's stomach.
Along with sewing the little monster bean, Su Yang measured the teddy bear in his hand.
Now the teddy bear was like a collection of monsters. A zipper sewn on the mouth, buttons sewn on the back, and some rags wrapped around the body…
Su Yang felt embarrassed to continue looking at this teddy bear, so he opened the system store and clicked on the [Submit] button.
Suddenly, a prompt screen popped up in front of him: [Detected the use of rarer materials. Special items will give birth to additional abilities or talents. Confirm to proceed?]
Sure enough, every little monster bean could grant a new talent to any special item when attached to it.
Su Yang clicked [Confirm].
As Su Yang clicked [Confirm, the strange teddy bear that was sewn by Su Yang, and the needles, threads, thimbles, and other tools that the system conjured up before all disappeared into thin air.
A moment later, a dirty 30 centimeter tall teddy bear appeared out of thin air and fell to the ground. "Crack!"
Su Yang looked over, the teddy bear was even stranger than the one he had sewn, its mouth was a slanted zipper, and it grinned a strange… smile.

Chapter 226: Special Item: The Teddy Bear Who Loves to Play Hide-and-Seek
Just seeing that teddy bear, Su Yang felt a slight chill coming out of his back.
He didn't need to learn his lesson this time, but his biological instinct to resist made him not want to pick up or hold the teddy bear.
Because that teddy bear's body seemed to be emitting a kind of… ominous aura.
Su Yang didn't move it, but sat on the couch, waiting for the system prompt to pop up.
Little Hus finished feeding Janet and came out of the pool. Upon seeing Su Yang, he happily raised his little pillow edge again, "Good morning, Su Yang."
Su Yang said, "Good evening, Little Hus."
Little Hus went back to his kennel with silly happiness.
Su Yang held his forehead, this guy is hopeless. He would have to add a point to Janet later and the chances of a sudden addition of a point to birth intelligence or become a monster was not that great.
'Maybe Janet would just get a little bigger, and then I'll just sacrifice her next week. By then, Little Hus might have forgotten about the shark!
'At worst, I'll be taken for a sinner!
'If Janet really does gain any spiritual intelligence, then there's still Pool who can take the blame…'
After Su Yang made his decision, the system interface on the teddy bear lying on the ground also popped up.
[Teddy Bear 1: Obtained special ability — The Teddy Bear Who Loves to Play Hide-and-Seek]
'Hasn't the name changed at all?' Su Yang felt that this was not in line with what the system usually did.
He clicked on that ability, and the introduction of the ability appeared in front of him.
[Teddy Bear Who Loves to Play Hide-and-Seek]
[Catch] Mode: The moment you pick up the teddy bear, hide-and-seek officially begins. You'll have 30 minutes to hide. When you're done hiding, the teddy bear will have 3 hours to find you and… Kill you.
[Hide] Mode: If you haven't been killed within 3 hours, you'll be the one to find the teddy bear. The teddy bear will randomly possess people within 100 meters of you, and if you find it, it will change into the teddy bear state again and can be used again.
Restriction 1: The teddy bear itself has no sentience, and its only goal is to kill the person it is hiding from.
Restriction 2: The teddy bear will revert back to its teddy bear state after killing someone.
Restriction 3: The teddy bear's force level is roughly that of a young brown bear.
Note: Let's play hide-and-seek…
When he saw the introduction of this teddy bear, a chill ran down Su Yang's spine.
This special item was too evil. Unlike Satan, this introduction didn't seem to have any loopholes, and even the force level was stated.
The only thing that could've had new variables was the new additional ability or talent.
With the experience from the last time, Su Yang pulled down the item description of the teddy bear, and sure enough, behind the commentary, he found an option for [Additional Ability].
Su Yang clicked on [Additional Ability].
[Additional Ability: Night Kills]
Ability: The game extends infinitely. When you are awake the teddy bear will never chase you again, but the moment you fall asleep, the teddy bear will appear and launch an attack that will mortally wound. This attack can neither be dodged, or defended from, nor can you be immune to it. It can also kill any individual in any state.
Note: Sleep forever, dark night…
Su Yang was speechless.
'This ability seems even scarier.
'Why's this thing called a teddy bear? Call it Killer Bear!'
Su Yang looked at the teddy bear on the ground, thought about it, asked the little monster bean to get a clip, picked it up and put it in a black bag.
'This thing was too dangerous, it had to be hidden or some little monsters in the house, since there were so many of them, might pick it up. What's worse is that Little Hus would go and pick it up.'
The stuff in the system store was really getting weird now. Su Yang felt like he needed a safe now that could store dangerous items. After all, it had been turned over to him by Little Hus.
Hiding the teddy bear under the bed for the time being, Su Yang looked at the bottom of the bed and pondered. This was probably his first deadly special item.
Like Satan, it had itself said that unless someone wished to activate its ability, it could only draw about 15 percent of the human body's blood, causing dizziness at most and some damage to the body.
And none of the other little monsters had the ability to cause death. This teddy bear was the first.
Suddenly having an ability that could dominate someone else's life, Su Yang was a bit apprehensive.
In fact, although some of the system's abilities were effective, none of them were at that point of time, ungodly.
Take for example, the [Verbal Cannon] ability. Although it could be used to brainwash someone, it could be seen that this ability was only short-term from the landlord incident. When Su Yang left the affected person, the effect would gradually be lost if what Su Yang said was contrary to the other party's thoughts.
Even this [Verbal Cannon] ability was related to the other party's willpower, inner power, and acceptance of Su Yang's words. It was just like Old Zhou, who was not brainwashed successfully at the beginning.
However, this time… The teddy bear was truly unbelievable.
You just had to mail the teddy bear to a person and wait until the person opens the delivery and pick it up. Once that happened, the person who picked the teddy bear up would definitely die…
The police would never be able to find out that he did it as well…
Su Yang looked out of the window at the cloudy sky, but couldn't see the outside world at all as he pondered. 'I hope that there'll never be a time in the future when this item would be used.'
After hiding the teddy bear, Su Yang placed an order for a safe on the internet to hide these dangerous special items inside.
After buying the safe, a cell phone suddenly rang from within Su Yang's bedroom.
Su Yang called out the interface, and found that it was Tang Jing calling.
He picked up the phone, and Tang Jing's gentle voice was heard from across the street. "Su Yang, did you manage to borrow that two million?"
'I didn't expect that after so many days, Tang Jing still remembered this matter.'
Su Yang replied, "Miss Tang, I managed to borrow it, don't worry."
Hearing Su Yang say so, Tang Jing said, "Oh, that's good. Then I wish you good luck with your company."
Su Yang then thanked her and hung up the phone.
Tang Jing looked at the bank card in her hand, thought about it, and sent a message to her father — [Dad, my friend doesn't need the money, I'll go to your company tomorrow to return it to you].
After a while, Tang Jing received a text message with only one word — [Hmm].
Tang Jing put down her phone and looked out the window at the bustling scene of Shanghai, a little out of it. Since when did her relationship with her father gradually drift apart?
Was it from knowing that he's been seeing other women? Or when your own mother died?
She had long forgotten…
It's not as if she had any reason to hate him. After all, in a huge place like Shanghai, she probably wouldn't even be able to support herself just by relying on her own income of over 10,000 in the company if she didn't live in the house he bought and drive the car he bought, let alone having to raise Xiaomi.
If it wasn't for him, she wouldn't be a local in Shanghai that everyone envied.
The people in the company thought she was a second generation rich woman who just came to work to experience life in the company. Her car costs their salary for ten years. However, nobody would've guessed that it was probably a form of compensation from her father.
After all, his own father already had a new family of his own. A new family with a wife and children and she was without a home…
"Mummy. What are you doing~"
Just when Tang Jing was spacing out, the sprouting voice of Tang Xiaomi came from behind her.
Tang Jing turned around with a smile and a gentle open embrace. "Xiaomi, have you finished bathing? Mmm, you smell good. Here, let mommy hug you."
Picking up Xiaomi, Tom Jing was much more at ease. No matter what, at least Xiaomi was still with her.
….
Tang Jing's phone call dispelled part of Su Yang's depression. No matter what, a friend's concern will always soothe one's heart.
He stood up, no longer thinking about that evil teddy bear. However, he went downstairs, intending to make good on his promise to Little Hus.
Since the last time he had to sacrifice a rabbit, Su Yang had seen Little Deeny's sad, but still considerate face. Since then, Su Yang slowly treated the little monsters as family instead of just "his things".
So the matter of Little Hus has to be settled after all.
After going downstairs, Pool and Sanque just happened to be returning from work.
Seeing Su Yang, Pool greeted him gently, "Hi, Master Su Yang."
Sanque, on the other hand, nodded his head.
Su Yang said to Pool, "Come with me for a moment."
After Pool put Sanque and the three little monster beans on the ground, he followed Su Yang to the courtyard.
They sat in front of the villa, and Su Yang looked at Fatty who was chasing after the little monster beans and said to Pool, "I'm going to give Janet an extra point."
Pool was surprised. "What if Little Hus finds out about it?"
Su Yang replied, "It's definitely not a good idea to drag this out. Little Hus has been getting high beyond reason for the past few days. The more we drag it out, the more troublesome it will be."
"Moreover, the probability of adding points to items will probably make it a useless item or have special abilities. The probability of it gaining intelligence is very small."
After a pause, Su Yang patted Pool's shoulder. "If it really does gain spirit intelligence and speaks with a man's voice. Pool… You'll just have to admit it."
Pool's gentle face was filled with despair. "Little Hus will annoy me to death. It could probably bother me every day, master Su Yang."
Su Yang patted Pool's shoulder. "I'm sorry for your loss, it was your mistake after all."
Pool's face was full of sadness.
After the two of them finished their discussion, Su Yang called Little Hus in front of him.
Hearing that Su Yang had a second random point in his hand and was going to give Janet an extra point, Little Hus was so happy that it jumped three feet high and bounced around the house cheering.
Bouncing next to the coffee table, it also grabbed Gru and pulled Gru out of the flower pot and danced together.
Gru's dancing skills were also rather good, and he was able to keep up. So, the two smallest people in the family began to "fight dance", as if they were drunk on drinking alcohol….
Su Yang and Pool looked at each other and saw a deep concern in each other's eyes.
If they were so high and excited before the extra point then… If Little Hus were to find out that she really gained spiritual intelligence after the extra point, he would go crazy when he found out Janet was a male shark.
When Little Hus had finished dancing, the three of them went to Janet's pool.
Looking at the pool that had changed with Janet's habits, Su Yang said to Pool, "Let's start."
Pool covered his face in despair, then with a wave of his hand, a huge bubble of water slowly floated out of the pool, and Janet looked incredibly vicious as she tossed and turned in it.
But Little Hus was blinded by love. His little doggy eyes were emitting so much love. "Janet! My love!"
Su Yang was speechless.
It's too much, even if the other party was really female, this was too revealing!
After shouting, Little Hus looked at Su Yang, his dog face grinning so much that its face was about to split apart.
Even if Su Yang was stupid, he could tell why Little Hus was so excited, so he sighed. 'Never mind, it's come to this, let's end this bad fate…'
Thinking this, Su Yang opened the addition point system.

Chapter 227: What Happened After Adding A Point To Janet
As the system switched on, a translucent ] appeared above Janet's head in the water bubble.
Because the water bubble restricted Janet's activities, Su Yang easily clicked on that ]. Normally, the first time an item was added, a flicker of light would appear, and the addition would be completed with no cards at all. However, the development of this additional point was beyond Su Yang's expectation.
As the ] was tapped, Janet's body was covered in a faint layer of fluorescence, as if its entire body was coated with a light. Gradually, Janet stopped moving and grew quiet in the light. At the same time, a harsh beeping remembered, and the glow became more and more blinding, making it impossible for the three of them to look directly at it.
Little Hus worriedly asked, "Su Yang! It can't be that something went wrong, could it?" Su Yang didn't say anything but had an ominous feeling in his heart. 'Why is this scene so familiar!'=
'Could it be?!'
Just as he was worrying, Janet's light fiercely diminished, and the entire pool was once again calm.
At this moment, dripping sounds were suddenly heard at the back of Su Yang's mind, as his ominous foreboding became stronger and stronger. He hurriedly opened the system, and surely enough, an exclamation mark prompt appeared on the system interface. [Advanced life migration found, please treat with care!]
It really was an advanced leap in its sentience!
Su Yang felt like this was familiar because the events that had just unfolded were exactly like when he added the first point to Pool!
The probability of this happening was so low, making this just too weird!
Su Yang felt deep despair. This was the end, Little Hus would discover Janet's gender even if he was a fool. After all, it wasn't even the birth of intelligence that allowed it to talk! It was going to turn into a human being straight away!
'You can still speak with a thick voice, but how can you hide the fact that you've become human?
'What if Janet's outlook is actually rather rugged?
'And! Why should a shark make a high-level leap when so many little monsters don't?
'Especially since it's still a male shark.'
In Su Yang's desperation, his ears rang with Little Hus's screams, "Waifu! Haha! My wife!"
'Huh? Wife?
'Things aren't going the right way, are they?'
Su Yang looked up toward Janet's direction in confusion and froze…
What caught his eye was a western white woman with sculpted features, green eyes, and long blonde hair while sporting a small short skirt along with a suspender belt. Aside from her very flat chest, she was simply a standard western woman .
Su Yang was dumbfounded.
However, Little Hus rushed all the way over, shouting, "Wife! Wife!"
It was exactly at that moment, that he knew… The woman whipped her leg over Little Hus and the only thing you could hear was a yelp like no other, "Owww!" The entire pillow seemed dented as it bounced off into the air and fell into the pool.
That action… No, that posture, was incomparably graceful.
Su Yang's gaze slightly gazed, feeling that that move just now was definitely not something an ordinary person could use.
At this moment, the woman's gaze swept around and finally landed on Su Yang, then she walked in front of Su Yang and knelt down on one knee. "General at your service, Lord!"
Her voice sounded like it had a little of an exotic accent, but it also had a ring to it, like the voice of a lady.
Su Yang pondered it over in his mind. 'Looks like a woman, talks like a woman… Heck, it even walks like a woman! So is she a woman or not?!'
Su Yang looked over to Pool, who was also surprised.
Looking over at Su Yang, he whispered, "I saw Janet's… he's really a male shark."
'Really a male shark? Is it possible to add a point and change its gender?'
In Su Yang's confusion, the system interface finally popped up [Shark 1: Advanced sentience occurred. Gained intermediate spirit intelligence, humanoid body, and primary unrestricted fighting ability.]
Sure enough, an advanced sentience occurred but gaining a humanoid body…
'Can a small monster can actually gain human fighting abilities? It's a bronze ability! I didn't think it would happen just by adding a point! Janet is so lucky!'
However, the only pity was that she didn't have any talents or special abilities, let's just hope that she gets a special ability next time she gets a point… She didn't look like a monster at all!
After reading Janet's introduction, Su Yang didn't find anything gender-related, so he couldn't help but look at Little Hus, who was still pounding in the pool. Then, he crouched down and asked Janet in a low voice, "Are you a male or female?"
Janet's face stiffened, still saying in that woman's voice, "I am a man."
Su Yang was utterly speechless this time.
'It really is a man…
'But! Such a woman! A woman's voice! Women's clothes! You can't tell it's a man!'
Su Yang turned around, then waved his hand at Pool. "You test it."
Pool looked desperate. "How should I test it, Sir Suo Yang."
Su Yang yelled, "Do you really need me to teach you?! You're a man too, aren't you?! Don't you know how to verify things like this?"
Pool was going crazy…
However, the matter was originally stirred up by him so he had no choice but to step forward as he whispered, "Janet, I'm sorry."
Then he grabbed Janet's bottom and instantly let go again. After letting go, Pool was busy wiping his hands on his shirt as he whispered to Su Yang, "It's a male. Master Su Yang."
Su Yang was still speechless.
'A goddamn headache is what this is…
'It's really a man… what's that called? transvestite? A pseudo-girl?'
Su Yang, who had little contact with the Internet, was a bit tongue-tied.
He thought about it for a moment and felt that there was no other way. 'A male is a male, let alone one that looks so beautiful. In fact, Little Hus is not a loss, right? After all, it's not like he can see it…'
Su Yang waved his hand and instructed Janet, "Go fish Little Hus up."
Janet complied. "Roger that."
With Su Yang commanding, Janet set her hand and easily fished Little Hus up, but Little Hus had been addicted to Janet's beauty and couldn't help himself.
Su Yang whispered to Pool, "By the way, is Little Hus male or female?"
Pool looked at Su Yang. "I don't know… The cushion doesn't have an organ either."
'It should be a male, right? After all, Little Hus's voice is really…'
He thought about Little Hus's sharp voice that sounded like a duck. 'Well… If it was a woman, she definitely wouldn't be able to get married.
'Forget it, it's like the species have been cross-bred, is gender that important?
'Let's watch the events develop before we decide.'
When Janet brought Little Hus over, Su Yang picked him up and stepped to the side as he whispered luridly, "Little Hus, you can't chase girls like this."
Little Hus gave Su Yang a husky stare. "Why?"
Su Yang replied, "She's too enthusiastic. It's like licking another dog."
Little Hus retorted, "But I'm already a dog!"
Su Yang continued, "But licking another dog is low even for a dog."
Little Hus was speechless at Su Yang's analogy.
Su Yang fiddled his thumbs. "Janet has just transformed, and she needs time to adjust. You should give her enough space."
Su Yang added in his heart, 'Maybe you won't like her after you give her some space.'
Little Hus pondered for a long time before reluctantly nodding his head and agreeing.
….
To celebrate the appearance of another "transformed" monster, the little monsters of the family had dinner together.
The dinner was held in the villa's courtyard because there wasn't enough room to sit down.
Fatty, of course, was driven to the corner of the courtyard to sit down and continue to eat her mountain of cabbages.
A few of the other monsters sat around the table. There was milk and drink in the house, all caught in a wooden barrel from [Master Sommelier Water Tap]. The barrel, on the other hand, was bought during a food safety inspection a while ago. After the inspection, it was moved to the house for milk and drinks. With the little monster beans cooking, the table was quickly filled up.
However, the only problem was that the only person eating was Su Yang.
So it was a gathering where everyone was served a drink as they watched Su Yang eat alone. With so many people watching, Su Yang was eating in an incomparably weird manner, feeling like a zoo animal.
After eating for a while, Janet, who had been staying by Su Yang's side, raised his hand. "My Lord, can I eat?"
'Huh? Janet eats too?'
Su Yang looked at him. "You can eat?"
Janet touched his shriveled stomach. "That's quite likely, I'm hungry."
Su Yang stretched out his hand toward the rice on the table. "Here, try some."
He was always the only one in the family who ate, so it wasn't even fun. Those little monsters don't actually drink even if they're holding drinks. They're just holding cups for holding sake…
With Su Yang's consent, Janet reached out and took out a piece of the sweet and sour pork ribs on the table and shoved it into his mouth. Suddenly, the ribs were like going into a meat grinder, as it was ground up so fast that even the bones were eaten whole.
Su Yang was speechless and so were the other little monsters.
Su Yang carefully looked at Janet. "Is it delicious?"
Janet wrinkled his upturned nose and shook his head. "It doesn't taste good."
'Crap, eating bones, how can they taste good!'
Su Yang commanded, "Open your mouth and I'll have a look."
Janet obeyed and opened her mouth. The two rows of teeth in his mouth were actually not quite the same as humans, but pointed and aligned like a shark.
'This… Are these the shark teeth that are so popular these days?'
Su Yang looked at Janet. 'Why doesn't she wear smoky makeup? She might even be very popular if she did…'
Dismissing this odd thought from his mind, Su Yang said to Janet, "Just eat the dishes, and don't eat the bones for dinner."
As he was saying that, Janet reached for another piece of the sweet and sour ribs and stuffed it into his mouth. Before you knew it the ribs were chewed up so fast that it went straight down his throat in a swift move.
'Umm… c'mon.' Janet didn't listen to him at all.
After eating two pieces of ribs, Janet said to Su Yang, "I don't want to eat this any more. This sour and sweet is not good. Can I have fish?"
Before Su Yang could agree, a voice rang in their ears, "The fish is here!"
The two of them looked over and saw Little Hus running over happily with a foam box of fish.
Su Yang was dead silent.
'That's too fast, and it's all raw fish!'
Before Su Yang could stop him, Janet grabbed a fish from the box and stuffed it right into his mouth.
This time he didn't make that strange sound again, but his mouth was stuffed to the brim as he chewed like he had never chewed before. After a moment, he swallowed violently, and all the fish meat along with its bones all entered his stomach.
As that happened, a trickle of some liquid flowed out of the corner of his mouth… Bright red blood.
Su Yang said in a frightened voice, "Open your mouth and let me have a look."

Chapter 228: The Missing Maiden
Janet opened her mouth wide.
What a bloodbath! It was a real "bloody" mouth, covered in blood from the fish bones. No wonder it was flowing out from the corner of his mouth.
Su Yang covered his face. This was too gory.
Besides, won't eating raw fish give you diarrhea?
Thinking about Janet's identity, Su Yang felt that it probably…
The meal was frightening. Although Su Yang was trying to dissuade him, Janet was still eating raw fish without a care for anyone else while blood trickled out of his mouth…
'Eating a bloody meal…
'This fit his shark identity.'
After finishing the meal, Su Yang thought, 'It's only after eight o'clock, and the mall is still open. Why don't you bring Janet to buy some clothes? A man this beautiful pretending to be a woman was just too zombie-ish.'
Janet didn't object, so Su Yang let him wipe his mouth and walked out with him.
The two of them didn't want to go too far away so they went to the mall near the neighborhood and chose some ordinary clothes that guys often wear like t-shirts, shorts, and slippers.
In summer, this was the standard outfit for boys.
Su Yang and Janet changed into their clothes in their respective dressing rooms. Su Yang came out first, looked in the dressing mirror and felt… He felt handsome again.
After a while, Janet's dressing room opened and Janet came out, Su Yang looked over and noticed… He's even more beautiful!
'Why do women always have a different kind of beauty in men's clothes?
'Why was Janet more feminine when 'she' wore men's clothes!
'Well, at worst, I'll shave his head. Then he probably won't look so femine… or will he?'
On the way home, Su Yang and Janet made many heads turn, probably because Su Yang was followed by a beautiful "foreign woman".
After walking for a while, Janet whispered to Su Yang, "My lord, why are they all looking at us? Are they planning to do something to you, my lord? Do I need to take them out before they can do anything?"
Saying that, Janet bared 'her' teeth, revealing a mouth full of shark teeth and a bleeding mouth…
Su Yang replied, "It's fine."
However, he whispered in his heart. 'Them… looking at me? They're obviously looking at you, okay?'
I just hope that those who were having those kinds of thoughts of Janet could withstand a few hits from Janet.
It wasn't for no reason that Su Yang thought so. After dinner, Su Yang and Janet arm-wrestled, and he found that Janet's strength was exceptional. Su Yang's was like a child before her.
If it wasn't for Sanque's lack of interest, Su Yang would have wanted these two to try fighting against each other to see who would win in the end.
Su Yang felt that Janet would most probably win. A person with the strength of a shark and [Unlimited Fighting Ability]. It was like a personal killing weapon that Sanque may not be able to defeat despite having eight hands!
Of course, there were definitely people in this world who could beat Janet, but… Even if someone who could beat Janet plotted against him, he might find out that Janet was capable of pulling out a bigger weapon than him…
'Yeah. It'll be amazing…'
In the midst of his musings, the phone rang, and Little Deeny said into Su Yang's ear, "Master, it's a call from Tang Dafa."
'Another call from the big gold master?'
Su Yang picked up with a smiling face. "Brother Tang, what's up?"
By now, Tang Dafa, who has called him countless times, had learnt his lesson. He did not specify the matter but instead, directly invited Su Yang. "Brother Su, do you have time tomorrow? You and me, out to dinner?"
Su Yang couldn't refuse a meeting with a gold boss especially since he refused him several times before. Refusing again would seem a little ungrateful so he replied, "Okay. What time? Where do we meet?"
Tang Dafa said, "Tomorrow night at six. I'll pick you up. You just have to send me your address."
"No problem."
After hanging up the phone, Su Yang sent his school's location to Tang Dafa.
After sending the location, Su Yang was just about to turn off his phone when Little Deeny's voice sounded in Su Yang's ear, "Master, don't you feel that something wasn't quite right with Tang Dafa?"
Su Yang was stunned. "What's wrong?"
Deeny explained. "He's been calling you too often this week, trying to ask you out on five or six dates. This is far more frequent that most people would contact you for an appointment."
Su Yang hesitated. "Maybe it's because he wants my help?"
Deeny disagreed. "If he's contacting you because he wants your help, then he shouldn't contact you so often! It'll bore you to death."
Su Yang pondered for a bit and felt that Deeny had a point.
Deeny concluded her argument. "Master, you were preoccupied because you used the hourglass and read his memories, so you didn't see anything wrong with him. However, I've been studying social interpersonal relations recently, so I found out that he's not acting normally rather easily."
Su Yang nodded thoughtfully.
The hourglass could see people's memories and thoughts. It was like God's eye view, allowing Su Yang to know a lot of things that he "shouldn't know". However, it also made him think that "Tang Dafa will kneel before me," leading him to ignore some of Tang Dafa's subsequent abnormalities.
Su Yang slowly pondered about Tang Dafa's recent appointment with him. Buying a car, a house, a watch, luxury goods, trampolining, and going to a club…. It all seemed like they were related to spending and drinking..
Did Tang Dafa want to make him a degenerate? Or did he want to find his weakness to blackmail him?
Su Yang felt that he had to go to this dinner tomorrow night and use the hourglass to check Tang Dafa's thoughts once again. He had to know what plans this guy had in mind.
Back at home, Su Yang asked Deeny to arrange a room for Janet, then went to shower and went to bed.
Lying in bed unable to sleep, Su Yang called out the interface, intending to check out his circle of friends.
Su Yang's WeChat didn't have many friends, and were all acquaintances. The first one was Qu Xiaomeng who sent him a screenshot of a chat circle of friends.
The other party that she was chatting with was named — [Mom].
At the top of the screenshot was a quote from Qu Xiaomeng — [Mom, I have to pay the rent, and I'm a little short of money. Can you lend me 8,000 yuan? I'll pay you back when I get paid next week.]
The result was a [!] before a message was displayed. 'The other person is no longer your friend, please send a friend request.'
Qu Xiaomeng was puzzled — [????]
Half an hour after the time on the screenshot, the other party approved Qu Xiaomeng's friend request and directly transferred 8,000 yuan.
Qu Xiaomeng received the money, and sent another message — [Mom, I'll be home for dinner next week.]
Another awkward exclamation mark was seen before a similar prompt came up. 'The other person is no longer your friend, please send a friend request.'
Qu Xiaomeng returned a question mark and confused emoji.
With just one screenshot, Qu Xiaomeng's followers bombarded her with comments.
Qu Xuan said — [Mom said, if you can't find someone, don't go home].
Chu Xia replied with a smirking face — [Teacher, you're so pitiful.]
The most cruel and nonchalant reply was from Li Runze, he replied with one word — [Hm.]
Highly cool and upscale, he was domineering and exuded a style that undoubtedly made him the top student at Su Yang's school!
Su Yang thought about it and also replied — [What a miserable single woman.]
After a moment, Qu Xiaomeng replied — [You still have the nerve to say that?! I'm deleting my friends starting with you!]
After a few more moments, Qu Xiaomeng replied — [Huh? Didn't you block me last time? Have you removed me from the blacklist?]
Su Yang silently pulled Qu Xiaomeng name back into the 'block' contact column again. 'This woman is too noisy. Let's wait a while before unblocking her.'
After reading Qu Xiaomeng's social media profile, Su Yang continued to swipe down to browse other things. Most of them were meaningless content, and all of them were like chicken soup for the soul made with selfies. The problem was that the selfies weren't good enough…
Just as he was about to close the interface and sleep, he swiped to Xu Lu's profile, someone who had been working part-time at the gift shop and saw a post — [Has anyone seen Wang Shan recently? Looking for her urgently. We've called her phone but it was turned off. We've also asked her classmates but they said she didn't go to school.]
Su Yang looked at this post, thought about it, and privately chatted with Xu Lu — [Senior sister, is that Wang Shan your friend?]
Xu Lu replied — [That's right. She's a close friend of mine. I work part-time in the gift shop and dance part-time occasionally. I just met her at the event. I haven't heard from her in the past few days. I called her, but her phone was turned off. I even asked her roommate and classmates, and they all said she went out a few days ago with something seemingly bothering her and never came back.]
Su Yang asked — [Nobody made a police report?]
Xu Lu replied — [She's a university student who's probably living at her boyfriend's house. I'm sure no one would dare to simply call the police.
'Uh… Makes sense.'
Su Yang asked — [Which school is she from? Does she live near our school?]
Xu Lu replied — [She's from East China University of Science and Technology and lives in the dormitory.]
'East China University of Science and Technology… That's not far from here.'
Su Yang continued — [Why don't you send me a photo, and I'll ask the people around me to see if anyone has seen her.]
Xu Lu was a person who was outwardly feminine but was quite a straightforward person. She sent the photo to Su Yang without hesitation.
The photo was of a rather innocent looking person, probably because she was studying dance so her body looked good, slim and slender.
Su Yang looked at that photo and mouthed. "Wang Shan."
Then he took out the [Fruit-loving Pen] from the bedside table, and asked a little monster bean to fetch an apple for him.
Sitting on the bed, he took the pen and laid a piece of paper underneath it, imagined Wang Shan's name and appearance, before slowly and carefully eating the apple.
After a short while… There was no response.
Su Yang put down the pen. It would seem that she was no longer near the school. She was probably out playing or was at her boyfriend's house.
Originally. Su Yang saw the post and casually offered to help out. However, since his attempt to help out didn't work, Su Yang forgot about it.
The next day on Monday, Su Yang got up early to eat and went to school.
At school, Su Yang went to the last row of the classroom, sat down, put his things down, took out his phone and began playing as usual.
Soon, Chu Xia came to his side.
This girl shamelessly sat next to him and asked, "Do you have any plans for the summer vacation?"
Su Yang looked at her. "I guess not. It's just a trip home, and then I'll head around to the company."
Chu Xia asked again, "I guess not… In that case, do you want to go out?"
When he heard this, Su Yang felt like something was wrong. He looked at Chu Xia, pondering. "Hmm." Then, he put down his phone and asked her, "Are you interested in me?"
Chu Xia was a little panicked, obviously not expecting Su Yang, who had always been more straightforward and ignorant, to ask such a question. However, her mental prowess had always been rather amazing, held steady. She breathed and adjusted her state of mind before purposefully saying, "Yeah. I'm interested in you."
Looking at the obvious smirk Chu Xia had plastered on her face, Su Yang hesitated for a short while, and finally shrugged her off. "As if I would believe you."
After saying that, he picked up his phone and continued playing, obviously not believing her.
Chu Xia breathed a sigh of relief, glad that the confrontation was over.
Just when she thought she had survived, Su Yang stared at her phone and suddenly asked, "By the way, have you recently read a novel called "Cherishing Chu Yao"?"
Chu Xia's heart thudded. 'It's over.'

Chapter 229 – The S-Ranked Netbig Project
Cherishing Chu Yao was a novel that Chu Xia was writing. Aspiring to be a famous writer, Chu Xia really loved writing. In order to practice her penmanship, she began writing online novels on the Internet.
There was a saying in the circle of online writers — Chinese language and literature majors, or related majors, are usually unconvincing when they write stories online. This was because they would usually deliberate over words and sentences, sticking to them without paying attention to the intent behind the words. To top it all off, they were also not down to earth.
However, Chu Xia didn't believe in this curse. After reading dozens of women's fiction, she found that the current women's fiction trending romance were completely uninspiring. From the overbearing president, to the ancient prince, some cute adorable puppies of unmarried pregnant women with the overbearing president's baby made it seem like women were just vessels for men to enjoy.
So Chu Xia was the opposite. She was writing strong female stories!
When writing about an overbearing CEO, she would write that women could hold up their end of the bargain, and men were serving women instead!
It was proven that readers would also experience aesthetic fatigue and did not like to read stereotypical novels. This was why Chu Xia's novels were trending like crazy…
Once the novel went viral, Su Yang came under fire as well. Everyone who read the story on the internet now knew of a man called Su Yang who was incapable, could only eat soft foods, was greedy, lustful and tattled all day long. To top it all off, he also had to be trained by the female protagonist.
Of course, Su Yang wasn't the first one to come under fire. The first was a prominent president named Wei Wuyi. He was the typical male CEO who would drunkenly sleep with the female main character. He had slept with a woman after drinking and got her pregnant before marriage. Five years later, he was still indifferent to her.
Writing this novel, Chu Xia did not expect to write a novel that could go viral and get so many readers. After all, this was a kind of test for her. When the novel began trending, she couldn't change the name of the male protagonist halfway through so she was fearful all day. In the end, she didn't expect Su Yang to discover her novel.
Chu Xia was cheeky and had a heart raging like a tidal wave. However, her face was as steady as the mountains. "What's that? A novel?"
Chu Xia thought to herself, 'Well I handled that pretty well to conceal the fact that I wrote this novel.'
Su Yang didn't even look up. "Didn't you write the novel?"
Chu Xia replied stiffly. "No."
Su Yang continued prodding. "Oh, then what's the name of the novel you wrote?"
Chu Xia's mind went blank for a moment, and half-heartedly, she snorted. "You're trying to pry it out of me, aren't you? I won't tell you."
After saying that, she walked off!
'I have to run! If I don't run, I'll be exposed!'
Looking up at Chu Xia's fleeing figure, Su Yang smiled and shook his head. Then, he continued to play with his phone with his head down.
Deeny's voice echoed in his head through the bone conduction headphones, "Master, Miss Chu Xia is lying."
Su Yang asked, "How do you know that?"
Deeny replied, "Recently, I've been studying the psychology of relationships in addition to social interpersonal studies."
Su Yang was speechless.
This research was really complicated.
Su Yang said without raising his head, "Can't you learn something useful? Learn more about directing techniques."
Deeny retorted. "I did! However, I'm a multi-core processor so I can use it for multiple purposes and learn several things at the same time."
Su Yang was inwardly jealous.
After Little Deeny finished, he said, "Right. Master, a person recently wrote me a private message on TikTok, asking me about the company that did our post-production special effects and whether they do outsourcing."
Su Yang was surprised. "Oh? Really?"
Deeny replied, "Yes. My Lord, shall I reply him?"
Su Yang shook his head. "Forget it, there's no time."
While they were chatting, the bell rang, and Qu Xiaomeng stepped into the classroom.
Su Yang put down his phone and stopped his conversation with Deeny, he looked toward Chu Xia who was sitting in the front row, smiling inwardly. 'This girl must have been lying just now, she wouldn't really be interested in me, right?'
Although Su Yang had never been in love, it didn't mean that he was a fool. He didn't realize it before and just didn't think of her in that way. After all, Chu Xia treated everyone equally well.
However, after including what happened today to his consideration, Su Yang began realizing that she somewhat treated him better. Slowly, he began feeling a little interested.
Just as he was pondering, Qu Xiaomeng spoke, "Students, next week is the final exams and the week after that is a holiday. So, please remember to study this week and know that you can always come to me if there's anything you don't understand."
Su Yang was a bit out of it. 'A semester has passed so quickly…
'Will you have completed the only remaining bronze mission you have next week?
'Will you have two months off the week after next?
'Will you have new juniors two months from now?
'Time passes so quickly…'
The day passed quickly. In addition to listening carefully, Su Yang took the time to go to the office at noon. On top of giving out some benefits to motivate the staff, he also opened two minutes of [The Devil's Angel Halo] and Intermediate [Verbal Cannon] to inspire the staff.
The effect from the 20 points worth of coins spent was that the employees were super motivated and were enthusiastic about their work.
Su Yang found that the best use of these two combined abilities was actually in the company. Once the friendly aura was on, all the complaints the employees could have about him would disappear in an instant.
When the [Verbal Cannon] ability was activated, it was like brainwashing. Even if the employees wanted to express their opinions, they couldn't speak or refute them in meetings, so the effect was exceptional!
In the evening, Su Yang went to Pool's milk tea shop to grab a cup of milk tea after a busy day and waited for Tang Dafa to pick himself up on the side of the road.
Pool's milk tea shop was now quite popular and business was brisk. It gradually built up a reputation from the monster family video in the hot air balloon and he'd occasionally appear in a cameo. Because of this, there would be admiring fans from time to time who came to buy milk tea, take group photos and ask for handshakes.
Pool was gentle, never refused them, and was especially patient so the reviews left were rather good. There were even a number of young students who quietly left him their WeChat contacts.
After drinking free milk tea on the side and watching Pool work for a while, Tang Dafa's car pulled up beside Su Yang.
The car wasn't expensive and was just a Mercedes-Benz black business car. It drove to the side of Su Yang and Tang Dafa rolled down the window, obsequiously smiled and said, "Brother Su, I'm here."
Su Yang smiled and replied, "Brother Tang, you're very early."
Saying that, he got up, opened the back door and got into the car.
When he came to the car, Tang Dafa smiled at Su Yang. "I've always wanted to ask Brother Su out for a chat, but today I finally have the chance."
Su Yang smiled and said politely, "I've also always wanted to get together with my old brother. The two million you lent me really relieved my urgent need."
Tang Dafa's eyes flickered as he smiled. "Of course, of course"
The driver drove the two of them to an upscale western restaurant.
When they arrived at the restaurant, the seats had already been reserved.
Su Yang and Tang Dafa sat on either side of the table, facing each other.
After ordering, Tang Dafa was the first to say, "Brother Su, I recently came across a project, I don't know if you're interested."
Su Yang looked up. "What kind of project?"
Tang Dafa replied, "It's a big online movie, called Fighting the Buddha. The script was written by a well-known screenwriter, and the IP is from Journey to the West. The main characters are second-tier power actors, and the project rating over at iQiyi is S-ranked. It's very marketable."
Su Yang was surprised. "Really?"
Tang Dafa nodded. "Right. The owner of that movie company and I are friends, and he's given me a free investment quota of three million. If you're interested, I'll share one and a half million with you."
Su Yang's eyebrows furrowed lightly as he thought to himself. 'Sounds like a free lunch.'
Su Yang said, "Brother Tang, do you have any introduction regarding the project for me?"
Tang Dafa said without batting an eyelid, "I do. I'll give you an electronic version first, so you can take a look."
Saying that, he used his obese hand to pull out his cell phone and pressed a few buttons. Then, Su Yang's cell phone vibrated when he received it.
Su Yang said flatly, "Okay, Brother Tang, I'll take a look at it later. I'll go to the toilet first."
Tang Dafa smiled. "Okay, okay."
When he went to the toilet, Su Yang said to Little Deeny, "Look up this project and check out the information."
If Su Yang only thought that Tang Dafa was trying to make him a degenerate before, then Su Yang definitely felt that something was wrong now.
If it was to corrupt him, then there was absolutely no need to introduce the project to him.
'This project was clearly not of the same nature as the previous events.
'Was there something wrong with this project?'
After a while, Little Deeny's said to Su Yang, "Master, I checked the project out and there's no problem. The information checks out with what Tang Dafa said, and there are no differences. It's an S-grade project in AIC, and there are many additional contracts signed. It has a lot of support and is well recommended.
"The actor is also a famous second-tier actor with good acting skills. The script is indeed written by a well-known screenwriter, and the risk is very small."
'Huh? Is it such a great project?'
Was he and Deeny thinking too much? Did Tang Dafa really just want to include him in this project because Tang Dafa thought he was a second generation wealthy person?
Once doubt was seeded in one's heart, it couldn't be dispelled.
So although this movie project was good, Su Yang somehow felt that there was something fishy about it so he took out the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] from the pocket dimension and played with it in his hand as he returned to the table.
When he returned to the table, the food was already served on the table, and Tang Dafa smiled while waving to him. "Come, let's eat first."
Su Yang smiled and replied courteously. "Okay."
As he spoke, he sat down and casually fastened the hourglass on the table.
As the hourglass was fastened to the table, everything went still as space began to distort and spin rapidly. Then… everything entered Su Yang's eyes.
For a moment, Su Yang entered the memory realm of Tang Dafa.
Arriving at the memory realm, Su Yang didn't delay much and rummaged backward to find memories related to this project.
Soon, he found this part of the memory.
After reading it, Su Yang was even more puzzled.
In Tang Dafa's memory, there was indeed a memory of discussing this project with his friend. What he said was true. The project had very little risk, and once it was profitable, it would return him his money several times over.
The friend himself was planning to invest in the project but Tang Dafa used favors and added some other benefits in exchange for this portion of the investment.
However, this investment wasn't three million as he claimed. It would only cost one and a half million! That was Su Yang's 1.5 million!
Su Yang was a bit confused.Was Tang Dafa a good guy, and did he and Deeny overthink it?
He continued to look backward, and the next memory was still coherent. However, after getting in the car, Tang Dafa finally revealed his true intentions…

Chapter 230: The Death of Two Girls
Inside the Memory World…
In the car, Tang Dafa looked out of the car window as his face slowly revealed a proud look. He admired himself because this scheme of his to secretly take Su Yang down using a real scenario was a stroke of genius. Anyone who investigated this matter could not find any problem and would think that he was deliberately trying to please Su Yang by sending money to him.
After all, the movie was real, the risk was small and the high reward was also realistic. Everything was as he said but the only problem was the settlement cycle of the movie.
Netbig's billing cycle was as long as half a year, and sometimes payments would be pending for more than a year.
This meant that Su Yang would've been drained of at least 1.5 million in cash flow for those six months. For Su Yang to lack so much cash all at once would surely strain the companies he was involved in financially.
It was then that he would then ask for the early recovery of Su Yang's loans…
"Hehehehe." Convinced by his plan, Tang Dafa laughed in the car.
After listening to Tang Dafa's "voice", Su Yang's heart turned cold. 'Did Tang Dafa intend to harm me?
'You're trying to get me to run out of money and collect on your loan!
'However… Even if Tang Dafa wanted to harm me, our IOU was clear and there were no irregularities, so how could he ask for the loan back in advance?'
Thinking of this, Su Yang hurriedly flipped Tang Dafa's memories forward, intending to see if he had other plans. Soon… He found a chat between Mr. Jia and Tang Dafa.
Mr. Jia said. "Mr. Tang, our company has studied all this information of yours and found the loopholes."
Mr. Jia put a page of materials on the table and then stretched out his hand. "Your IOU with Su Yang was a personal loan, but he transferred the loan to the company."
"Based on your IOUs, there was no mention that you were aware that he would use the money for the development of the company. Normally, this isn't illegal and doesn't affect your lending relationship. After all, you didn't stipulate a specific use."
"But!" Mr. Jia tapped the information on his desk and continued, "He is a company whose profitability is far from being sufficient to pay the two million. The company is also growing too fast and has a great operational risk from accepting dozens of employees from Junqing. He also has no house, no car, no savings, and no ability to repay himself, so his solvency has changed significantly.
"You have the right to seek early recovery of the loan after you became aware of this.
"Likewise have the right to ask the court to temporarily freeze the account of Qidian E-Commerce to avoid further losses to you."
Hearing Mr. Jia's analysis, Su Yang's heart was shocked. What worried him, even more, was Tang Dafa's "inner voice".
In Tang Dafa's inner voice, he was able to recover the loan through this loophole but did not have much confidence in its success.
However, Tang Dafa felt that as long as there was a dispute between both sides, that was enough! After all, he doesn't need to win the lawsuit. He just wanted to freeze Su Yang's assets, freeze Junqing's accounts, and keep on using his connections to drag it out. Eventually, Su Yang's company will naturally collapse, and he'll have nothing left…
That's what big companies often do to small companies, they drag you down to your death…
Su Yang frowned, feeling that this tactic was indeed a bit toxic.
'However… I have no grudge against him, why would he want to harm me? And a few days ago, we were building quite a healthy relationship. How is it possible in this small amount of time for him to suddenly make a 180-degree change?
'There must be a deeper reason for this!'
Time was a bit tight so Su Yang couldn't care less about it, and he could only speed forward to look up Tang Dafa's memories. Soon, he saw Tang Dafa chatting with Young Master Ying and Young Master Li.
"Drag him down. That way, we'll have something to offer when we meet him to seek his help."
"If he is holding on to Jiang Yan's secret, destroy him. Let him disappear forever with his secret."
"I don't care about you. I'm not the one looking for you, it's Brother Ying that's looking for you. He wants you to go to his place. Are you going or not?"
"Right, Young Master Chen, I've recently acquired two nice toys, I'll send them to you in the next few days, okay?"
'Young Master Ying? Young Master Chen?'
Suddenly, several unfamiliar characters appeared in front of Su Yang, causing him to be a bit overwhelmed. 'Who were these people?'
As Su Yang was trying to remember this information, the time was up, the flashbacks stopped and began spinning. The last image that stayed in front of Su Yang was Tang Dafa taking out a piece of paper from the drawer and saying to his good-looking assistant, "The two college students you said owed us money before. Arrange for them to be cleaned up and go to this address."
Su Yang started to spin out from the memory space, but at the last moment, he stretched his neck to look at the paper, and all he saw was the word "Wanlong."
Back in the real world, Su Yang's movement remained at the moment when the hourglass was placed on the table.
Tang Dafa took one look at the hourglass, smiled, and said, "Little Brother Su, do you like this kind of gadget? Why don't you wait for me to get you some?"
Su Yang didn't know why but he felt disgusted when he heard Tang Dafa say "gadgets" and "get a few."
As it turned out. "ordinary people" were no different from other things and were just "stuff" that these upper-class people play with.
When he recalled the way Tang Dafa arranged for the two college girls, Su Yang couldn't help but feel disgusted.
Su Yang has always been a free spontaneous person, if he couldn't eat, he wouldn't eat. He immediately stood up and said to Tang Dafa with an expressionless face, "I'm suddenly a bit uncomfortable, I'll leave first."
Tang Dafa was completely unaware of what was happening and pretended to be concerned, "Brother Su, are you alright?"
Su Yang looked at him with an indifferent face. "Just a little disgusted."
After saying his piece, he turned around without hesitation and walked away.
Looking at Su Yang's back, Tang Dafa's frown grew deeper and deeper. He didn't know what happened. He was very nice to him a moment ago so why did he suddenly turn his back on him?
Did he see through his plan?
'It can't be… I haven't exposed anything!'
Tang Dafa was so angry that he drank all the red wine in the goblet in one go. 'Cheers! This guy's a tough nut to crack! It's been over a week and no progress at all!
'Since attacking in the dark doesn't work, let's try attacking him head-on!'
No matter what, he's got Young Master Chen and Young Master Ying backing him!
…
Out of the restaurant, Su Yang walked on the road. June in Shanghai was slowly getting hotter. Even when the night wind blew on people, it didn't feel cold but instead, felt a little hot. Su Yang's heart was full of anger, and that anger came from Tang Dafa and himself as well.
Because of Hourglass's preconceived "judgment", he trusted Tang Dafa. In the end, he didn't expect that the trust would lead to betrayal! No, calling it betrayal was an understatement. After all, Tang Dafa was never "loyal" to him.
He must have been fooled!
In addition to being angry that he was made a fool of, Su Yang also couldn't accept Tang Dafa and the others and their superior attitude towards ordinary people.
'Two college students, just a "thing" to them? Cleaned up and sending it over?
'How is that so much like the wording used in your own village to discuss a pig kept in a pen!
'As long as you have power and money, can you treat ordinary people like dogs and pigs?'
Su Yang was now incomparably regretful, not that he regretted knowing Tang Dafa, but regretted that he should have just lifted the table and beat that guy up!
'These guys are animals!'
Just as Su Yang was burning with anger, Little Deeny's voice sounded in his ears, "Master, there's something very serious, I feel like… You better take a look."
Su Yang asked, "What is it?"
Deeny replied, "Xu Lu posted something on her profile."
'Xu Lu posted something on her profile? What do you mean?'
Su Yang Brought Little Deeny out and opened his WeChat, the first thing he saw was Xu Lu's post — [Just received the sad news of Wang Shan, a little unbelievable. May there be no accidents in heaven.]
Su Yang's head buzzed. 'She's dead?
'That's so sudden
'The girl we were looking for yesterday is suddenly dead?'
Su Yang hesitated and dialed for Xu Lu. No matter what, he had helped to look for her yesterday, and now that he knew about it, it was reasonable that he asked about it.
The phone connected and Xu Lu was weeping on the other end, her voice was trembling as she greeted, "Hello?"
Su Yang asked with concern, "Senior sister. Are you okay?"
It was after some time before Xu Lu could speak normally. Even then, her voice seemed like it was glued together and blurred, "I'm… I'm fine."
Su Yang was silent for a while and consoled her, "I'm sorry."
Xu Lu cried even louder, but covered her mouth and let out muffled sobs instead.
After listening to Xu Lu cry on the other end of the phone for a while, Su Yang sighed, regretting making this call.
At this moment, Xu Lu spoke, "Su Yang, can you, can you help me and Wang Shan?"
Su Yang asked, "What do you guys need help with?"
Xu Lu choked. "There's something going on here… Wang Shan definitely didn't die accidentally! Have you ever seen an accident where two girls fall into the water at the same time! That villa area of Longteng Jiayuan has security guards patrolling every day, so how could it have been two days before their bodies were found?!"
Su Yang's head was buzzing. 'Two girls? Longteng Jiayuan?'
Su Yang couldn't help but remember the last fragment he saw in Tang Dafa's memory, were the two somehow related?
Su Yang quickly said to Xu Lu, "Senior sister, where are you? I'll come to you."
Xu Lu stopped crying. "I'm on the road outside of our college."
Su Yang said, "Wait for me, I'll be right there."
As he said that, Su Yang hung up the phone and took a taxi to Xu Lu's place.
Arriving near the Art Academy, Su Yang asked the driver to circle the grounds of the Art Academy and finally met Xu Lu who was squatting by the road crying at the west gate. Su Yang quickly paid his bill and got out of the car, then ran to her side. "Senior sister. Are you okay?"
Seeing Su Yang, Xu Lu shed tears while covering her mouth and shaking her head. Su Yang pulled out a pack of tissues from the virtual space on the way, unwrapped it, and handed it to her. She took it and used the tissues to wipe her tears.
Su Yang sat next to her, quietly waiting for her to calm down.
After a while, Xu Lu slowly stopped crying and Su Yang asked, "Senior sister, can you tell me what's going on?"
"Mm." Xu Lu nodded with sad eyes as she said, "Shan Shan and I met a year ago, she's a girl from a third-tier city who came to Shanghai to study. We met because of dance, but the difference was that I studied dance professionally, while she loved to dance."
"She is a very innocent girl, and her family is not particularly wealthy. However, her parents are very loving and treat her well and call her often. Every time she gets a call from her parents, she smiles like a little girl."
"She loved to laugh, and when she starts, she just won't stop laughing. I always tell her she looks like a fool when she laughs. She would reply that she likes to be a fool because a fool was always happy."
