Financial crisis, big salary cuts, fresh graduates fighting fiercely for a job paying only 1,200 yuan. Fresh graduate Chen Feng couldn't stand the gap and became a loafer at home, smoking and d...
That evening, the group went to the abandoned mine in the small village, while Chen Feng went to Xia Yingying's gold panning spot.
You can see that luxurious and exquisite villa from afar.
The Zhang family's villa and Li Erchun's hotel are nothing compared to this.
I drove the car into the yard, where a black Porsche was parked, along with about four or five other cars.
Another van entered the yard with Chen Feng, and two people got out of it; they also looked like gold prospectors.
There are only so many parking spaces in the yard, it seems as if the yard wasn't designed to accommodate guests when it was built.
Chen Feng exchanged a glance with the two men, both understanding each other's identities, and together they knocked on the door and entered the villa.
Upon entering, Chen Feng raised an eyebrow at the extremely luxurious decor.
It's exactly like the luxurious villas you see in TV dramas, even more extravagant than a gold mining spot.
"Yingying, come and greet the guests!"
The man next to him seemed to have been here before. He stretched his neck and shouted upstairs, while winking at his companion and giving a smile, as if showing off.
His companion, though puzzled, gave him a thumbs-up in admiration.
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng frowned and quietly took a few steps to the side, avoiding them.
To prove that I am not one of them.
After all, there were rumors that this woman had a terrible temper, so how dare this man speak like that?
A short while later, a woman wearing high heels and a long skirt came down from upstairs.
The woman's long, slightly wavy hair reached her waist, exuding a mature charm. Her figure was curvaceous and alluring, and even a long dress couldn't conceal her stunning curves.
Her face was cold and indifferent.
But undeniably, the woman was as breathtakingly beautiful as the rumors suggested. She was the most beautiful woman Chen Feng had ever seen in real life, bar none.
"Who are you calling Yingying? Are we that close?"
The woman stepped down, looked down at the man, and spoke coldly.
"Practice makes perfect, right? This is my second time here, and I even brought someone with me. Isn't this also to support your business?"
"You should thank me," the man said with a slightly embarrassed smile.
"I need your help, what are you anyway?"
"If you want to be naughty, then be naughty; if you don't want to be naughty, then get out. Didn't your mother teach you to speak properly, or do you not have a mother?"
"If you use foul language again, get out of here, understand?"
The woman crossed her arms and looked at the man coldly.
Although her voice was pleasant to the ear, the coldness in it sent shivers down one's spine.
Her voice wasn't loud, but it was incredibly intimidating, making the man afraid to even look her in the eye.
Of course, Chen Feng didn't feel anything from the side, since it wasn't him who was being scolded anyway.
The man was surprised by Xia Yingying's ruthlessness. He had wanted to show off in front of his companions, but Xia Yingying didn't give him any face, which made him lose face.
"I was just joking, is it really that big of a deal?" The man scratched his head and explained, trying to justify himself.
"Who's joking with you here? If you want to joke, go home and joke with your mom. Don't you dare spew nonsense here."
Xia Yingying exuded an aura that kept people at a distance.
The man opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing and lowered his head.
If this happened in front of others, a man would definitely not let it go so easily, even if he was in the wrong, because he still had face to save.
But in front of Xia Yingying, he really didn't have the courage. His aura was completely crushed by Xia Yingying, and he didn't even dare to raise his head.
"Are you with them?" Xia Yingying glanced at Chen Feng, who was standing on the other side.
"No, no, I don't know them. This is my first time here," Chen Feng quickly waved his hand.
It would be so unfair if the man got scolded because of himself.
Hearing that they weren't in cahoots, Xia Yingying's expression softened slightly.
Although she was angry, she knew it had nothing to do with Chen Feng, and she wouldn't take it out on anyone else.
"Tickets are 500 yuan, valid for 24 hours. You'll need to find your own accommodation; I don't have any here."
"There's no food to eat either, you know that, right?" Xia Yingying said to Chen Feng indifferently.
"I know, I heard about it when I came here," Chen Feng nodded.
"Okay, that's fine then."
Xia Yingying spoke softly, saying that Chen Feng knew the rules in advance, which saved him a lot of trouble.
"Since you've come at this time, you must be planning to work tomorrow, right? There's a code on the door, so pay up."
Xia Yingying gently raised her chin, gesturing to the QR code at the door.
The three of them eagerly went over to scan the code, and Chen Feng couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"No wonder business here is so bad, there are only a few people every day, and the attitude is really bad."
"By the way, do you provide hot water here?" Chen Feng asked Xia Yingying as he swept the money over.
"Sure, but don't keep asking for it. I don't have time to keep burning it for you."
"That table by the door is for you to eat at. You are not allowed to go anywhere else except there."
Xia Yingying glanced at her phone, which had a pretty purple case with lots of rhinestones, a cute cartoon design, and a tassel.
After confirming that she had received the money, she turned to go upstairs, but the man's companion, after taking a closer look at Chen Feng, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Holy crap, buddy, aren't you the one who did the live stream a few days ago?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Yingying's eyes showed a hint of doubt, and she subconsciously stopped and looked at the three of them.
"That's right, it's me."
He hadn't expected to be recognized here, so he grinned and nodded.
"Wow, it really is you! You're the guy who made over 400,000 in three days. Why didn't you go to Li Erchun's mine?"
The companion, as if meeting an idol, excitedly grabbed Chen Feng's hand and asked...
Chen Feng was speechless. With an awkward yet polite smile on his face, he subtly withdrew his hand.
I don't know what's wrong with these people. Why do they always hold hands when they recognize each other? I thought Zheng Ping had possessed them.
Seeing Chen Feng's embarrassed expression, Xia Yingying unconsciously revealed a slight smile on her usually indifferent lips.
But she quickly suppressed that smile, and no one noticed.
At the same time, Xia Yingying was quite surprised. She hadn't watched or been interested in that gold rush live stream, but she had heard of it and knew the outcome.
To her surprise, the champion had come to her today, which made her take a few more glances at Chen Feng.
Is this the gold rush champion? He really doesn't look like it.
In her imagination, the gold rush champion must have been a seasoned veteran, covered in sand, his skin tanned dark from years of sun exposure, and with a unkempt stubble.
It's even possible that due to their advanced age and constant sun exposure, they might even go bald.
