"Oh, it's nothing, just a small business, mainly related to the ACG (Anime, Comics, and Games) industry. It's definitely nothing compared to your big business."
Chen Luo touched his head sheepishly, and the two of them returned to sitting opposite each other, eating breakfast and continuing to chat.
However, Chen Luo was right. Although he didn't know what kind of business Wen Wan was in, just from this villa in Emperor Garden, he could tell that she was worth at least 1 billion yuan.
Let alone my current self, even at my peak in my past life, I'm afraid I couldn't even compare to one percent of what others have achieved.
"Actually, you don't have to go through all this trouble. Just tell me what you want, and I'll give you anything, including my own life."
When Wen Wan said this, her eyes no longer held the playful and ambiguous look they had before, and her tone was filled with a sense of matter-of-fact indifference, as if giving Chen Luo everything was simply a matter of course for her.
If anyone else had made such a promise, Chen Luo would have thought they were crazy or joking.
However, coming from Wen Wan, Chen Luo felt that she was serious.
Perhaps if I really agree, an immense fortune will be waiting for me.
"No, Wenwan, please let me try."
"I'm not a conservative person, and I wouldn't say anything like I don't want to be a kept man."
"I will definitely ask for your help if I need it, but there are some things I want to do myself."
"But I promise you, as soon as my business plan is finalized, I will tell you first. Is that okay?"
Actually, Chen Luo was a little flustered when he said those words.
My relationship with Wen Wan is somewhat delicate right now. Although I've only spent a few days with her, we're not even close friends yet.
However, these past few days of close contact and conversation had allowed Wen Wan to occupy a significant place in his heart. To say he wasn't moved by such a remarkable woman who loved him to the core would be a lie.
Chen Luo didn't want his relationship with Wen Wan to change for the time being, but he also didn't want his words to make Wen Wan feel that he was distancing himself from her.
Wen Wan didn't say anything after listening, but poured Chen Luo another cup of soy milk.
"Okay, whatever you say goes. I'll do whatever you want. Eat well so you'll have the energy to think. Don't overwork yourself, my darling."
Wen Wan's words finally put Chen Luo at ease: "Thank you, Wen Wan. I'll have a good talk with you about my plans tonight."
"However, I have to go back to school this afternoon for a class meeting. They say the new counselor will meet with us and elect class committee members. Could you arrange someone to take me back to school? It's really hard to get a taxi here."
Upon hearing the words "class meeting," Wen Wan seemed to recall something, a slight smile appearing on her lips, her eyes curving into crescent shapes.
"Okay, Mo Lan, you take Chen Luo to school." Wen Wan gave the order immediately. Mo Lan did not hesitate after receiving the order and immediately went down to prepare the car.
Wen Wan gently escorted Chen Luo to the villa entrance. Just as Chen Luo was about to wave goodbye, Wen Wan stepped forward, raised her hand, and gently straightened Chen Luo's clothes, fastening the top button of his shirt with her slender, white fingers.
"You little rascal, dress more properly, don't let any little slut take advantage of you, understand?"
Her tone and actions were just like a newlywed wife giving instructions to her husband who was about to leave.
"Don't worry, I know."
Chen Luo nodded earnestly: "You get some rest. I'm going to school now. See you tonight."
Chen Luo waved goodbye and got into the car Mo Lan had driven, but it wasn't the Maybach he'd driven before; it was a Bugatti Veyron.
Mo Lan nodded to Wen Wan and then drove Chen Luo towards Hangzhou University.
Wen Wan looked reluctantly in the direction Chen Luo had left.
"This darling little guy, we've only just separated and I already miss him. I wish I could sleep in his arms forever."
Just as Wen Wan finished speaking, an assistant from inside the villa came out.
"President Wen, your letter of appointment and work permit from Hangzhou University have arrived. The president of Hangzhou University has sent you a message inviting you to attend the university's general meeting at 10 a.m.."
The assistant handed over a letter of appointment, which clearly stated: "Professor Wen Wan is hereby appointed as Professor of Finance at Hangzhou University."
The other work permit reads: Director of the Department of Finance, Hangzhou University, and concurrently a counselor.
Wen Wan reverted to her usual aloofness and imposing manner, suppressing all smiles and expressions, like a piece of unyielding, elusive ice from the far north.
"Okay, let's go to Hangzhou University."
...
Chen Luo was sitting in the back seat of the Bugatti Veyron. Mo Lan drove very steadily, making Chen Luo, who had barely slept all night, feel drowsy.
“Mr. Chen, if you need to sleep now, I can stop and find a place for you to rest,” Mo Lan said slowly, trying not to disturb Chen Luo.
"No need, we'll be there soon anyway." Chen Luo sat up straighter.
"However, Miss Mo Lan, please don't call me Mr. Chen. Just call me by my name."
"If Wen Wan treats you like a sister, then you're my friend too. Just call me Chen Luo."
Mo Lan seemed to have something to say, and after glancing at the rearview mirror, she said, "Okay, Chen Luo, I want to make a request of you, please try your best to agree to it."
"Hmm? What's your request? Tell me." Chen Luo was a little puzzled; why was it suddenly a request?
"I request that you come to the villa to keep President Wen company as much as possible in the evening. You may not know, but this is the first time in so many years that I have seen President Wen sleep soundly all night like last night."
"Since you care about Premier Wen's safety, you must also care about her health. Due to the dangers of long-term struggles and the shadows of her childhood, Premier Wen has suffered from chronic insomnia for the past ten years, and her body has reached a dangerous critical point."
"I just heard about the danger, but what is this childhood trauma? Is there no way to treat this kind of insomnia at the hospital?"
Chen Luo immediately tensed up after hearing this. Could it be that Wen Wan had some incurable disease?
"There are some things I can't say, I can only wait for President Wen to tell you. But what I can do now is hope that you can spend more time with President Wen. I'll beg you, you can have anything you want, I will try my best to satisfy you."
At this point, Mo Lan's tone became agitated, which showed that her concern for Wen Wan had indeed gone beyond the relationship between assistant and boss.
"For President Wen, you are the most effective medicine. Only you can cure her heartache and make her truly happy so that she can be healthy. I hope she can return to her previous health. Please."
After listening, Chen Luo nodded slightly.
"Thank you for your concern for Wenwan, Miss Molan. I understand. I will try my best to spend more time with her."
At this moment, the Bugatti had arrived at the entrance of the Hangzhou University dormitory area. Chen Luo looked at Mo Lan carefully and slowly got out of the car.
Mo Lan also got out of the car, walked up to Chen Luo, took his hand, and bowed deeply.
"Thank you, really, thank you. You will be my benefactor from now on, and I will definitely repay you!"
After saying that, Mo Lan wiped away the hot tears from her eyes, got into the Bugatti Veyron, and drove away.
However, what Chen Luo and Mo Lan didn't know was that the scene of Mo Lan shaking hands and bowing to Chen Luo, then wiping away her tears and leaving, had been filmed and immediately uploaded to the forum.
The Hangzhou University forum is buzzing again because of Chen Luo!
