The little brother got even angrier. ——It’s fine to insult him, but not his taste! Blonde hair is clearly a magical color suitable for all ages. When I earn money, I’ll definitely go to the salon and dye it even better! Thinking of this, the little brother suddenly froze. "Sis, you still haven’t told me how much you’ll pay me!" Even after getting on the train, the little brother was still grinning foolishly. In all his years, he had never had so much money. Chu River couldn’t bear to look at him , glaring at him: "Calm down." "Or people will think I abducted a fool." At this moment, the little brother didn’t feel sad or think that the big sis was too blunt. Instead, he said sincerely: "Sis, thank you so much for giving me this opportunity." He knew well enough that what he did was hardly worth anything; it was stuff anyone could do. And for the things he didn’t know, the big sis had to teach him hands-on. But no matter what, he would always follow the big sis! "Alright, think of a way first. Look for a school in Beijing. Otherwise, when I go to college, are you going to take the bullet train back daily to find me?" The little brother’s pleasant expression cracked. ——This was really hard for him, Little Yellow! With his scores, he’s not even sure if he can get into a local school. He gritted his teeth. "Alright, I’ll go back and tell my mom that I want to enroll in a training class, right there in Beijing." She looked at the little brother in disbelief. "You’re not planning to retake the exam and apply again for college?!" Little Brother: "..." Well... when it comes to studying, some people get it right away, and some don’t but are willing to learn. Like him, he neither gets it nor wants to learn. He looked at Chu River’s expression and tentatively asked: "Sis, don’t you think... the smell of books is actually quite good for sleeping?" Never would she have thought, returning to the backward Mountain and Sea Star Era to start anew, her capable assistant would be illiterate. She dared not imagine how Chang Geng would mock her later. But no matter what, Little Yellow was still very obedient, and Chu River could only put up with it. Little Yellow had virtues beyond just obedience; he was also attentive and considerate. The return trip took more than 4 hours, and he had packed many snacks in his bag, pulling it open at this moment: "Sis, do you want something to eat?" Savory, sweet, sour, spicy—all you could choose from. In an instant, all of Chu River’s dissatisfaction with the little brother disappeared. There weren’t many people on the bullet train now. Across the aisle, there was just a girl on a double seat, who had been on the phone with earphones since boarding. At this moment, the little brother was silent, so her voice became noticeable. "...How can you treat me ? Did I stay with you just for your money?" "My parents raised me well, I’ve never lacked food or drink. Without you, can I starve to death?" The little brother, still foolishly grinning, commented on the side: "That’s right! This must be true love; the girl isn’t short on money, so why follow him?" Chu River looked at him meaningfully, thinking: The girls from Mountain and Sea Star have seen it all, but this boy’s naivety—oh dear. She also softly said: "A life where you don’t lack food and clothing, compared to a life where a single light necklace costs hundreds of thousands, do you think they’re the same?" She had just recalled the girl’s face—she was the one with Zhou Tianheng from Lu Heng Real Estate when she first searched for information at the internet cafe. Hearing what Chu River said, the little brother looked again at the square diamond necklace exposed on the girl’s neck over there, and then fell silent. The girl was still chatting, rubbing her stomach while doing so. "Did you tell him or not? Do I have to be alone with you forever at such a young age?" As she was speaking, the train stopped again at a new station, and the girl, not knowing what she said, angrily hung up the phone. And in the next moment, the man walking over with a ticket looked so familiar. Chu River’s eyes lit up. ——The likeable, wealthy client! As the client, Zhou Bai, saw her, he couldn’t help but freeze. But somehow, he also felt a faint sense of security. ——How peculiar. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novęlfire.net He silently found his seat and sat down heavily, right next to the girl. The girl clearly got startled, looking at him warily, a hint of suspicion in her expression. But Zhou Bai was entirely unaware of this, instead, he looked in his bag for the charger, applying casually, in a good mood. As he did this, the girl’s gaze became somewhat strange. When Zhou Bai finally noticed the girl’s stare, he couldn’t help but proudly straighten his back— Oh, this damned, irresistible charm of mine! He adjusted his sitting posture under the girl’s scrutiny, his spine looking particularly elegant. Then he placed his new model phone on the adjacent table. At this point, she silently covered her eyes. For some reason, the more she understood the ways of Mountain and Sea Star, the more she found life amusing. She turned slightly, looking expectantly at Zhou Bai. This gaze made the big man even more rigid, paying no heed to the girl’s odd stare. After a long while, Zhou Bai ultimately couldn’t take it anymore. He found the contact from before and texted: "I already settled the money last time, didn’t I?" Chu River calmly replied: "I know, I just wanted to ask if you plan to involve me in the next deal." In an instant, he became wary, stealing glances at the girl next to him who was secretly eyeing him and occasionally typing. He couldn’t help but feel chills, quietly scooting his butt towards the aisle. "I don’t want a prison sentence this time. If something’s wrong, report it to the police now." After sending, he watched Chu River intently, wanting to see her expression. However, Little Yellow beside Chu River, for some reason, was overly attentive, currently holding up a braised chicken claw to Chu River’s mouth, who took a bite, immediately obscuring her expression. And Zhou Bai’s phone dinged with a notification. He clicked it open and saw: [Do you think the girl next to you is attracted by your looks?] [She’s only attracted by your handsome, rich father willing to spend money.] Attached images, attached images, attached images. Three pictures, all of the girl next door arm-in-arm with his biological father, Zhou Tianheng, shopping. Fury surged in Zhou Bai’s chest—darn you, dad! Last time, I knew you were hiding something from me, mumbling around. I thought the family had lost big, so I didn’t dare spend much when going out! Turns out you were out finding a girlfriend, hiding it from me! As if dad ever thought, with the two of them being so outstanding, his exceptional son, what if he attracted the girl? This is an enormous misunderstanding. The more he thought, the angrier he got, and the more anger fueled his thoughts. And Chu River’s next message came right after. "How much is this information worth?" After sending, Chu River mused— Huh, now that I’m not short of money, why am I still so adept at this? This thought had barely flashed when a bank transfer of 1 million came through as a text alert. She looked at the adjoining seat with an inexplicable expression, while opposite, Zhou Bai was silently grumbling in his thoughts— The money I hesitated to spend before, I’ve got to find a way to spend it all recently!... The son had broken up, so why should the father date such a young girlfriend! Doesn’t he consider the son’s feelings? The son should date first!!! And at this moment, Chu River roughly understood why she was so adept at this. Oh, it’s all because of being spoiled by this silly rich second generation in front of her.
