Chen Ya had purchased the primary [Charm] before, in order to make it easier to interact with people when gaining achievements.
He is quite handsome to begin with, and with a little dressing up and the blessing of his basic charm, he is always successful.
But after meeting the tough opponent Gu Yuqing, he realized that basic charm alone was not enough.
They agreed yesterday that if they solved the ten tasks proposed by Gu Yuqing, they would get her investment.
Even her best friend Wu Qiuting could see that whether Chen Ya could pass the test depended on a word from Gu Yuqing.
Gu Yuqing is a contestant, a referee and a question setter, so it would be strange if Chen Ya could win.
Chen Ya is not a fool. He can think of what Wu Qiutong can think of.
So the key to the problem is not whether Chen Ya can complete these ten tasks.
On the surface, Chen Ya needs to fully exert his personal abilities to complete the test, but in essence, it is actually about dealing with Gu Yuqing.
If Gu Yuqing is satisfied, then she is satisfied. If Gu Yuqing is not satisfied, no matter how well you do, it will be useless.
Therefore, even though Chen Ya already had a limited number of achievement points, he still invested a large number of points in the skill [Charm].
As long as he can win over Gu Yuqing through his "charm", he can get a full 100 million US dollars in investment.
...He had seen many top-level skills and was mentally prepared for the effect of top-level [Charm].
Unexpectedly, the effect of this top-level [Charm] exceeded his imagination.
On the way from home to here today, he has been secretly photographed more than a dozen times by groups of girls.
Today's weather was exceptionally warm and sunny. The men I met on the street were all attractive, and the women were all charming. Some even asked if he was a celebrity and wanted his autograph...
The skill was so effective that he didn't know what to do next. Would he be the center of attention for the rest of his life?
...Let’s think about the future later.
He seemed to have caught a glimpse of it before. In the [Ace Spy] achievement, there seemed to be an item called "Ordinary Man Glasses". After wearing it, he would become an ordinary person with no special features.
At worst, I can get that achievement later and just wear those glasses every day.
...Lan
After all, Gu Yuqing and Wu Qiuting were both from prominent families and of high social status. Even though Chen Ya's appearance aroused the feminine side of them, they still tried their best to maintain the proper reserve of a lady.
After Chen Ya glared at the two of them, they became much more restrained and their conversation became serious.
So Chen Ya lowered his head and continued to text Yang Changshuo.
Not long after he lowered his head, the volume of the two women's conversation gradually weakened and became inaudible.
After a while, another "click" sound came from Wu Qiuting's mobile phone.
Chen Ya raised his head, and Wu Qiutong fiddled with his phone with a dark face and said:
"Didn't I press the mute button? Why is it still so loud?"
Gu Yuqing asked, "Where did you buy this phone? Fruit X."
"I bought it in Tokyo. It's an early access edition. I happened to have it in the duty-free shop when I was traveling there, so I bought one."
"No wonder, Japanese-made mobile phones all have hidden camera functions, and you can't turn down the volume when taking photos."
"Ah, I see. No wonder it's always so loud. But I was just taking a selfie, and I can't turn it off. My life is so rigid, hahaha..."
"Yeah, my brain has always been like this. Even my cell phone is stupid and vulgar, hahahaha..."
Chen Ya felt so uncomfortable listening to the lines read out by the two people that he stood up and wanted to go out for some fresh air.
"Hey, um, Chen Ya," Gu Yuqing stopped her fake smile and suddenly said seriously, "Let's talk about our business."
Chen Ya turned around and said, "Oh? Are you done with your work?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone, but Gu Yuqing was shameless and remained unmoved.
"Well, that's done. Let's get back to business. Last time, we talked about how, if you complete the ten tasks I set, I'll invest $100 million in your company...what's it called?, based on the exchange rate at the time."
"Beichen Company. My company is called Beichen Company." Chen Ya nodded. "That's exactly what you said yesterday. Complete your ten tasks and I'll receive your $100 million investment. You can't withdraw your investment or cancel the contract at will."
Chen Ya repeated every word very carefully to prevent it from being recorded and taken out of context.
Wu Qiuting, who was standing by, heard what he was thinking, narrowed her eyes and stared at him, admiring him even more.
"Okay, let's start with the first task today. Let me think..." Gu Yuqing raised her head and touched her lips with her finger, looking quite cute.
Chen Ya didn't believe at all that she hadn't thought it through beforehand. She would definitely not treat such a large investment as a joke.
Chen Ya is no longer panicking, as he has already made all the necessary preparations.
After adding points to the system yesterday, his ability as an "entrepreneur" has reached a considerable level.
Moreover, he had kept 10 million yuan from the money he received yesterday. If Gu Yuqing made any difficult-to-achieve requests, he could quickly use the system to raise funds and prepare countermeasures.
"Then, the first task is..." Gu Yuqing rolled her eyes and said, "Play tennis with me."
"?"
Gu Yuqing smiled and said, "Play tennis with me. If you beat me, you'll be done."
A strange expression appeared on Chen Ya's face.
Originally, after receiving the 10 million yuan from Gu Yuqing yesterday, he thought that Gu Yuqing might be starting to be serious.
