Chapter 26: You Only Realize How Proactive Women Can Be When You Have Money
"Cough cough."
To avoid giving Shen Wanrou the impression that he had designs on her sister, Zhou Lang quickly added, "I almost forgot, sister-in-law, you do have a sister."
"Um……"
"You were talking to your sister on the phone just now, and she sounded very sensible."
Zhou Lang interrupted, saying, "It feels similar to the one at my house."
"Hmm? You have a younger sister too? How old is she?"
"She's 17, 9 years younger than me, I feel like she's practically half my daughter."
When Zhou Lang mentioned his younger sister, he couldn't stop smiling: "My sister's name is Zhou Xixi, Xixi is the 'xi' in 'water' and 'sunset', and Xixi is the 'tide'."
"She took the college entrance exam this year. She originally wanted to go home for the May Day holiday, but she was afraid it would affect her exam preparation, so she waited until June 10th. After the exam, I will go to the exam site to pick her up."
"Zhou Lang, Zhou Xixi?"
Shen Wanrou thought for a moment and guessed, "Could it be that your aunt gave birth to you all at night? Lang originally means the bright moon, and Xixi... tides are also related to the moon."
"Yes, sister-in-law."
Zhou Lang and she seemed to be two sister-obsessed individuals, and as they talked about their respective sisters, they found themselves having more and more to say.
"Xixi is quite independent and self-reliant. Starting from junior high school, she used my ID card to write short articles and post them online. She actually managed to earn one or two thousand yuan a month."
"So when I heard that your sister-in-law had just received her first month's salary as an intern, I gave you a birthday red envelope."
Zhou Lang laughed and said, "It feels very familiar. My younger sister is the same way; she's too sensible."
"After making money, he kept clamoring to help support the family, and he even went against me, insisting on buying me shoes and clothes."
"That means you all have excellent upbringing," Shen Wanrou said with a smile, resting her chin on her hand. "Your family atmosphere must be wonderful too."
She hesitated slightly, as if carefully considering it in her mind, before saying, "Zhou Lang, you were also born in 2000, right? My younger sister's name is Shen Shunan, she's four years younger than me, she's 22 this year... She's also four years younger than you..."
In Zhou Lang's view, the probability value of the money ability prism above Shen Wanrou's head was dropping rapidly, comparable to some people's stocks hitting the daily limit down.
[Status: Inactive, 33.3% chance of becoming your girlfriend]
Zhou Lang: ...
The favorability rating I gained today dropped by half from 66.7%.
Was it because of her sudden idea that he, the "caring younger brother," became the "future brother-in-law"...?
Zhou Lang didn't say anything like, "Sister-in-law, stop messing around."
Shen Wanrou has been anxious about a lot lately, so getting along with her can't be rushed.
Therefore, a wife should be simmered over a low flame, and a young woman should be gently boiled in warm water...
……
……
The next morning.
Zhou Lang asked Mo Mo on WeChat if she was free, and then called her.
"MoMo, I have a question. Did the two former junior bosses of Speedy Party ever encounter this situation?"
After Zhou Lang finished recounting his experience of being called to move his car yesterday, Mo Mo laughed out loud on the phone, making a "hehehehehe" sound like an LV.
"My boss, you're too honest."
Momo laughed as she said, "No luxury car owner would leave their own number directly. Either they leave a WeChat QR code for moving the car, or they leave their secretary's or company landline number. You call Jisupai, and we'll pass it on to the boss."
"Oh, sorry, this is my first time getting rich so suddenly, I have no experience," Zhou Lang laughed. "Now I know, go back to the shop this afternoon and get me two new license plates for moving my car."
"Okay, boss."
Mo Mo was in the mood to joke with her boss: "Boss, you should be prepared. Based on the experience of our previous bosses, driving a supercar makes it easy to attract one-night stands; driving an executive luxury car, on the other hand, makes it easy to be instantly smitten and relentlessly pursued by someone who insists on marrying you."
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
As soon as Zhou Lang finished speaking, he thought about what he had encountered in the past two weeks and changed his mind, sighing, "It seems that way. When I had no money, I was never approached by anyone. But after I got rich, even though I already had a girl in my car, women would still knock on my car window and ask to get to know me."
MoMo E'e'e chuckled and said, "Boss, I have to mention a popular online influencer I follow."
"He does emotional live streaming, and as a top streamer, he earns a lot of money. He often drives Ferraris and Lamborghinis to show off in the streets."
"He often shared his personal experience of changing girlfriends every week. One day, someone in the live stream started stirring up trouble, sending him hundreds of negative comments, accusing him of disrespecting women, saying that girls are usually pursued by men, so how could he be so eager to throw himself at him?"
"This popular streamer sighed and uttered a single, piercing remark that broke down all defenses: 'Brother, it's not your fault, you're broke and don't know how proactive girls can be. The first day we met, one second it was your first kiss, the next it was your virginity...'"
"Hmm, cough..."
Zhou Lang touched his nose: "Then I'll take this as a lesson and plan to drive my Audi RS6 back to my hometown next month."
People who know this car will recognize it as a good car, while those who don't won't bother calling to move it...
After spending the afternoon at the Speedy Shop, Zhou Lang couldn't find his Bluetooth earphones anywhere, so he bought another one for 30 yuan from Pinduoduo.
While sipping tea and chatting with the bespectacled, sophisticated woman Momo, I witnessed the sales staff serving a group of elegant young women, selling seven Porsche Macans in one go.
Zhou Lang was in a relaxed and carefree mood, as if he could see these cars turning into stacks of cash as thick as bricks, flowing into his pocket next year.
Based on the system's guaranteed annual income estimates, the gym's 20 and the Speed Party's 80, divided by 365 days, translate to a daily passive income of 2739 yuan.
Zhou Lang just sat there for an entire afternoon, doing nothing, and passively earned 1369 yuan.
"It's better not to work. It's more sustenance." Zhou Lang stretched comfortably. Compared to himself a month ago, when he was working overtime like crazy, the life of making money while lying down was now a dream come true.
Moreover, June is almost here, and the new blank banknote capability slot will soon be unlocked.
"For now, we're tentatively sticking with Ling Yuanyuan's 'Golden Coins Falling from the Sky' as the minimum acceptable option. If we encounter someone with even better financial resources in the next few weeks, then we'll see."
Based on the recent pattern of being approached by women while driving, Zhou Lang felt that he still had a high probability of obtaining even more financial power.
Just as Zhou Lang was daydreaming, his phone rang. It was Shen Wanrou calling.
"sister in law?"
"Yes, Zhou Lang," Shen Wanrou said in a soft, gentle voice, "You left your earphones at my house. I just found them in my apron pocket."
"Oh, I was wondering why I couldn't find it anywhere."
Zhou Lang laughed and said, "Alright, I've got my 30 yuan back. When are you free, sister-in-law? I'll come get it."
"I'll bring it to you."
Shen Wanrou paused, then added with a hint of coquettishness, "Driving such a nice car, and only using 30-yuan headphones? You're being too frugal."
As Zhou Lang canceled his order for the new headphones on Pinduoduo, he said, "Save where you can and spend where you can, use the money wisely."
Shen Wanrou suggested softly, "How about we have lunch together tomorrow? It'll be on me."
"It doesn't matter who invites whom," Zhou Lang agreed. "I'll come this time. Shall we meet around 11:40?"
Perhaps realizing belatedly that she had actually made a dinner appointment with a single man her own age, Shen Wanrou's tone softened: "Um... how about we invite Weiwei and Xiaoxue along... Oh, by the way, my sister is also on vacation tomorrow and coming to Shushui, how about we come together?"
"no problem."
……
The next day, at the appointed time, arrived.
Zhou Lang went out, his all-black RS6 speeding along, arriving ahead of schedule at a Japanese restaurant.
Signature dishes include eel rice, sashimi platter, and yakitori.
The average price per person was 400, far exceeding Shen Wanrou's daily spending level. This meal would probably cost her half a month's salary.
To prevent Zhou Lang from paying the bill, she even pre-loaded her prepaid card, ordered food in advance, and deducted the amount directly from the card balance.
"She usually stretches every penny she spends when buying her own things."
Zhou Lang thought to himself, "But during this time, they have been extremely generous and extravagant towards me."
