Why is This Troublemaker So Damn Rich?

The two of them headed downstairs together. To their surprise, Wang Hua had driven his car right into the residential complex.

He was parked right below Wu Min’s building. The moment they stepped out of the entrance, they saw Wang Hua leaning against his car, a smug look on his slick face as he stared in their direction.

He seemed to freeze for a moment when he saw the two women together.

It was simply because Shen Meng was so stunningly beautiful. Wu Min, who was quite attractive in her own right, was reduced to looking like a handmaiden by comparison.

He knew he shouldn’t be staring at Shen Meng, but he couldn’t resist sneaking glances at her out of the corner of his eye.

"Shen Meng, where are you two going? Want Wang Hua to give you a ride?"

Wu Min asked, turning her head as she pulled open the passenger door.

"It’s okay, he drove too. You guys go on ahead."

"Oh? He drove too?"

Wu Min thought for a moment. ’Yang Hui gave her a Cartier Ballon Bleu, which must mean his family has money. It makes sense that he’d have a car. After all, cars are pretty cheap these days. Wang Hua’s Passat only cost a little over a hundred thousand.’

As Wang Hua started the car, he kept glancing in the rearview mirror at Shen Meng walking alone down the road.

He asked Wu Min, "Who was that? Who were you guys talking about?"

"Yang Hui. That handsome guy we saw her having dinner with the day before yesterday."

Wang Hua never liked guys who were more handsome than him. He sneered, "Oh, that cheapskate? He even made your cousin pay for dinner. By the way, I remember yesterday was your cousin’s birthday too. I’m really curious what that cheapskate gave her. Don’t tell me it was just a ’Happy Birthday,’ haha!"

"That ’cheapskate’," Wu Min said flatly, "gave my cousin a Cartier Ballon Bleu for her birthday."

Wang Hua’s laughter came to an abrupt halt, as if someone had slammed the brakes on his vocal cords.

"N-no way... How could he give such an expensive gift?"

Wu Min sneered. "That just shows how important my cousin is to him."

Wang Hua said sheepishly, "A Min, I think with gifts, it’s the thought that counts. And you know how sincere my feelings are for you."

Wu Min was unimpressed. "That’s not what you said a moment ago."

Naturally, they were much faster in the car than Shen Meng was on foot. As they exited the complex’s main gate, Wu Min suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Huh? Isn’t that Yang Hui?"

The three-pointed star on the hood of the car glinted in the sunlight. Yang Hui was leaning against the car door, his long fingers casually playing with the key fob. It was obvious he was waiting for Shen Meng.

Yang Hui didn’t even glance toward the Passat. His eyes were already fixed on a familiar, slender figure—Shen Meng, walking toward him in high heels, the hem of her silk dress fluttering in an elegant arc on the morning breeze.

In the rearview mirror, Wu Min watched him lean down to open the car door for Shen Meng, gallantly shielding the top of her head with his hand. The smile sparkling in his charming eyes was more blinding than the diamond markers on the Longines watch on her own wrist.

Amidst the roar of the Passat speeding away, Wang Hua muttered, "It’s just some stupid Mercedes," while Wu Min stared intently at the rearview mirror. Even after the Mercedes had shrunk to a black dot, she could still feel the reflection from the Cartier Ballon Bleu’s face, like a searing scar burned onto her retina.

Morning light spilled through the panoramic sunroof of the Mercedes E-Class. Shen Meng sat on the leather seat, her silk skirt shimmering with a mother-of-pearl luster. Her fingertips gently tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. The diamond hour markers of her Cartier Ballon Bleu watch refracted the sunlight into tiny starbursts, making her wrist look even more slender.

With one hand on the steering wheel, Yang Hui let out a chuckle amidst the low rumble of the engine. "You look amazing today."

Shen Meng shot him a sideways glance as the morning breeze swept past the ends of her hair, carrying a wisp of white musk from her shampoo. "Are you complimenting my clothes, or are you complimenting me?"

His gaze slid from the Diamond Necklace at her collarbone to the slit in her skirt, and his Adam’s apple bobbed. He suddenly quirked his lips, his charming eyes narrowing. "Both. But you look even better without them."

"You...!"

She blushed, remembering the time he’d accidentally burst into her changing room.

Yang Hui burst out laughing. He loved teasing her and seeing her blush.

They drove to Jiang’an City. He hadn’t forgotten his main objective: to get her to spend money, he had to be in a commercial district.

Sure enough, the moment they entered the shopping mall, Shen Meng proactively asked, "Do you want some juice? I’ll go buy it."

He naturally wouldn’t refuse—every little bit helps. While Shen Meng went to wait in line, he surveyed the layout of the brands in Jiang’an City, mulling over plans to open Zen and NLB stores there.

Zen might not be a rush, but NLB was a different story. If he negotiated too late, Futong Commerce might beat him to it. Knowing Li Yang’s personality, he would definitely expand rapidly after getting the authorization for NLB.

Jiang’an City was the only development in Qingzhou that could go toe-to-toe with Xinyue Square, making it a crucial battleground for any major brand.

Shen Meng stood in a line composed almost entirely of men; the few women present were all by themselves. The men in line shot jealous glares at Yang Hui, who was casually looking around and occasionally checking his phone. ’That bastard... making a gorgeous woman like that stand in line for him. How come I’m not that lucky? It’s bad enough my girlfriend isn’t as pretty as his, but I also have to be her workhorse all day.’

One guy handed the juice he had waited in line for to his girlfriend and pointed at Shen Meng. "Look, that woman is in line buying juice for her boyfriend."

His girlfriend shot him a scornful look. "I saw. If you were as handsome as that guy, I’d wait in line for you too."

Her boyfriend was left speechless. He silently took a sip of his juice, trying to swallow his resentment.

"Yang Hui, here."

A group of men stared, their eyes practically shooting fire, as this stunningly beautiful woman with a graceful figure considerately put the straw into the cup for Yang Hui and handed it to him.

’Life really isn’t fair. How come he gets to be so lazy and have a beautiful woman wait on him hand and foot, while I act like a total simp and still can’t do anything to please my girlfriend?’

They could only imagine Yang Hui’s bliss, but they had no idea that his joy went far beyond that.

[System Detected: Bound Target Shen Meng has spent 30 yuan on behalf of the Host. Activating random multiplier cash rebate.]

It was a small amount, so Yang Hui wasn’t paying much attention to the rebate multiplier. The compass needle finally landed in the shaded area around the 80x mark.

[Random Rebate Multiplier: 90x

Cash Rebate Amount: 2,400 yuan

Task Progress: 1,260/50,000]

’Hm, 2,400 yuan. That’s more than I’d make at a job!’

Seeing the progress bar move just a tiny bit, he thought, ’Well, it’s better than nothing. One small step each day leads to a giant leap each month. Just gotta keep at it!’

"Shen Meng, let’s go check out the electronics stores."

They didn’t have a particular destination in mind, so anywhere was fine. The rent in Jiang’an City was steep, so for most electronics brands, either their brand wasn’t strong enough to justify the cost, or they simply couldn’t afford the lease.

On the ground floor, there was only an Apple store and a Huawei electronics store.

The two of them arrived at the entrance of the Huawei electronics flagship store. The place was packed; it seemed even more crowded than the main walkway of the mall.

"Maybe we should skip it," Shen Meng said.
