"They're closing at just past nine o'clock?"

When Chu Yang returned home, he saw that the door was closed. He took out his key, unlocked it, and went inside.

The room was pitch black; Mom and Dad must have gone to sleep.

Going to bed so early, could it be that under the "two children for couples where both parents are only children" policy, they're planning to have a younger brother or sister for him?

Chu Yang listened carefully but heard nothing.

He didn't turn on the lights, but took out his phone and quietly went upstairs by the dim light.

After taking a shower and changing my clothes, I saw a bank deposit notification on my phone.

Shen Nansheng has already transferred 200,000 yuan.

Chu Yang smiled slightly; he had money again.

Moreover, you'll have even more money after claiming your football lottery prize tomorrow.

I just don't know how much the prize money will be this time.

It also depends on how many winners will share the prize money.

The more people win the lottery, the less prize money each person receives.

It didn't matter whether it was a little more or a little less; these were just some of the money Chu Yang earned on the side.

To truly make big money, you'll need to rely on the next few investment opportunities; those are the chances to accumulate enormous wealth.

The money he earned on the side became his start-up capital.

Of course, if we cooperate with Shen Nansheng, we will earn even more.

However, Chu Yang knew that the reason Shen Nansheng was willing to drink and chat with him was simply because he was attracted by Chu Yang's incredible luck.

As for recruiting him, that was just a joke.

Chu Yang didn't want them to join his group; he wanted to recruit Shen Nansheng into his own.

There's no rush; we have to take it one step at a time.

Chu Yang lay in bed thinking for a while, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

It was still raining the next morning, so he couldn't run and exercised in his room.

Push-ups, sit-ups, squats...

He must cherish his youthful body.

After exercising, he took a shower, ate breakfast, and then rode his bicycle to school, holding an umbrella in one hand.

He attracted the attention of the whole class as soon as he entered the classroom.

"Landlord Chu is here!" a classmate greeted with a smile.

Following his nicknames of academic genius, school heartthrob, and womanizer, Chu Yang has gained another new one: Chu the Landlord.

Many people now know that he bought a house from Ah Kun's family, reportedly for one million.

One million? What does that mean these days?

Lu Peng, a rich second-generation heir, is said to have a fortune of millions. Chu Yang gave away Lu Peng's entire family in one go.

With such strength, Lu Peng had to admit that he had spoken a bit too loudly in the past.

Upon seeing Chu Yang, he gave an awkward smile and dared not look directly at him.

Chu Yang walked to Li Qingshu's seat and handed her an umbrella.

"Here's your umbrella back."

"Hmm." Li Qingshu looked up at him for a moment, then quickly looked down again.

From last night until now, all she can think about is the image of them sharing an umbrella in the rain.

There's also the scene where Chu Yang hugs her and shields her from the water.

Suddenly her nose felt itchy.

"Achoo!"

Chu Yang was taken aback: "I got wet last night and I didn't get sick, but you got sick instead."

These words leave much to the imagination.

Some students know how to identify keywords.

Last night, it got wet.

So, what exactly did those two do last night?

Li Qingshu wiped her nose with a tissue and said softly, "It's nothing, just a bit of a cold."

Chu Yang nodded: "Drink more hot water."

These days, encouraging girls to drink more hot water does have some effect.

Li Qingshu smiled, picked up the thermos, and obediently took two sips.

"Good boy/girl," Chu Yang praised.

Returning to his seat, he saw Han Dachun studying intently without looking up, as if he wanted to bury his face in the book, so he didn't disturb him.

Although it's a bit late for Da Chun to start working hard now, given his intelligence and grades, miracles might happen if he's willing to put in the effort.

Chu Yang was about to start reading when a commotion broke out in the classroom.

But it was Wang Xiaoli who came in.

It was only because she was wearing a beautiful dress today that her large breasts and buttocks were highlighted.

She was also wearing makeup, and she looked much prettier than usual.

Some of the boys immediately started to jeer.

"Wang Xiaoli, are you competing to be the school beauty?"

"I must say, she actually looks quite pretty dressed up!"

"What's wrong with Wang Xiaoli today? Is she getting married?"

"..."

"Go to hell!" Wang Xiaoli rolled her eyes.

Even her voice became more lilting, and the group of boys were almost overwhelmed by her charm.

Is this still the same Wang Xiaoli who is usually fierce and short-tempered?

Wang Xiaoli's beautiful eyes darted around, and her gaze fell on Chu Yang.

Then, before anyone could react, he winked and sent a flirtatious glance.

Chu Yang: "..."

Many people were stunned and looked at each other blankly.

Holy crap, what's going on?

Wang Xiaoli and Chu Yang, these two?

After Su Lingxue and Li Qingshu, Chu Yang has also won over Wang Xiaoli?!

Everyone looked at Wang Xiaoli in surprise, then at Chu Yang, and then at Li Qingshu.

Just then, Su Lingxue came in, and everyone looked over again.

The eerie atmosphere left Su Lingxue completely bewildered.

I have rice grains on my face?

She glanced at Chu Yang, then saw Wang Xiaoli dressed in her finest attire.

Remembering what Chu Yang had said last night, she seemed to understand something.

Her pretty face darkened, and she silently went to her seat.

I couldn't help but sneeze as soon as I sat down.

"Achoo!"

The whole class fell silent.

Is Su Lingxue also sick?

Li Qingshu's illness was already enough to spark speculation, but then there's Su Lingxue, and Wang Xiaoli flirting with Chao Chuyang.

This is so much information…!!

When Wang Xiaoli returned to her seat, she saw Xu Lingxue wiping her runny nose and looking pale, so she quickly asked, "Lingxue, have you caught a cold? Have you taken any medicine?"
