Xu Lu was still immersed in the excitement of earning money and could not react in time. “Huh? What do you want to talk about?”
Her cousin said, “Lulu, I actually watched you grow up. Although there’s a significant difference in our ages, we’re like biological sisters.”
“You’ve had a few problems since you were young, you love money, you’re lazy and like to reap without sowing. Plus, you get rash easily.”
“Calm down and think about it carefully. You’re just going to rely on your friend like that to earn money. Is that really… The right thing to do?”Xu Lu asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
Her cousin sighed. “According to what you said, that friend of yours has his own career from a young age and he has such a keen sense of smell in the stock market. Do you think you’re worthy of him?”
Xu Lu only wanted to cajole after hearing what her cousin had just said.
“Cousin…”
However, just as she called her cousin in a sweet voice, she was interrupted by her cousin. “Xu Lu! I’m not joking with you! Look at yourself now! What have you become?”
“Can’t you feel it yourself?”
…‘I have been quite different recently.
‘Ever since I earned 20,000 yuan within a week under Su Yang’s guidance, my attitude has changed completely.
‘I’ve got the mood to neither study nor do my part-time job. Apart from the occasional dance practice since it’s my hobby, I’ve devoted everything onto stocks and Su Yang.
‘Also, I’ve resigned from my part-time job through the Findme app and even told my class monitor that something had happened at home recently so I’ll be absent from class. Then, I’ve been staying at home everyday to study Su Yang’s circle of friends and doing research on how to play men within my fingertips…
‘Furthermore, I even read more books related to stocks just to gain more knowledge.
‘Actually, what’s the point in studying! Or even working for that matter! How many graduates will be able to earn 20,000 yuan per month despite obtaining a degree in a prestigious major?
‘Not to mention, I’m majoring in dance…
‘Even if I’m excellent at dancing, I’d only be able to enter the entertainment industry, the lowest of the lowest level no less. Moreover, there might be countless lechers hounding me with their predator looks. Even if I endure all those “obstacles”, there’s only so little chance of me making a big hit.
‘However, If I don’t do well, I’ll end up being a minor office worker where my major won’t match my career path. Furthermore, I might be able to enjoy some “special treatment” because of my career.
‘Or perhaps, I could make use of my youth and become a dance instructor, “coaxing” some of the children who love dancing.
As for joining an art troupe or even becoming an artist, that’s going to be harder than becoming a celebrity.’
After much consideration, Xu Lu felt that nothing she did in the future would be better than collaborating with Su Yang! Hence, she treasured the opportunity that Su Yang gave her.
‘My thought process is extremely normal. Humans are all realistic beings, so is there a problem with my decision?’
At that thought, she retorted, “What’s wrong with me? I think I’m doing very well!”
Her cousin said with disappointment, “Don’t you feel that your mentality isn’t normal at the moment? Currently, all you care about is earning money. Are you not even a little concerned for your future?”
Xu Lu asked, “What’s wrong with earning money?”
Cousin said, “There’s nothing wrong with earning money, but your way of earning money is wrong.”
“You’re earning money too quickly and too easily now. If you keep going like this, you’ll be under the impression that earning money is a simple task.”
“However, the only reason you’re able to earn money now is because that friend of yours is helping you. If he stops helping you, then everything that you have at the moment will cease to exist since it wasn’t done with your own capabilities!”
“What are you going to do if that friend of yours stops helping you invest in stocks? Will you be able to continue working at that part-time job that pays you 2,000 yuan a month? Will you even be able to focus on a job that pays you 4,000 yuan a month?”
“Will you still be able to focus on your studies? Will you still be able to go through all the hardships in life with another man?”
Xu Lu was rendered speechless.
After having a serious thought, she realized that she was actually going a little overboard recently.
‘With Su Yang’s help, earning money is so d*mn easy. But… what if Su Yang stops helping me?’
At the thought of that, Xu Lu felt a strong sense of insecurity.’
‘The first time Su Yang helped me to invest, he did it because I asked him for help. The second time was probably done to make up for the loss I suffered from the first time. The third time, which is this time, is to prove to my cousin that he’s talented.
‘But… Will he still continue to help me invest in shares?
‘There’s no such thing in this world as a free lunch. Furthermore, all the benefits I’ve received had already silently had its price marked the moment they were given. So, what do I have… What do I have to prevent Su Yang from “abandoning” me?;
At that thought, Xu Lu slowly placed her hand on her chest. She lowered her head and looked at her charming face and exquisite figure in the mirror…
‘Maybe…
‘Maybe I have something unique too…’
…
Su Yang did not know about Xu Lu and her cousin’s worries and thoughts. Or rather, even if he knew, he probably would not care.
He was no longer the poor village boy he used to be, especially after obtaining all kinds of special abilities. He did things as he pleased, so long as he was happy.
Just like how he helped Tang Jing start her business and helped Xu Lu invest in stocks, he did all of it out of his own pleasure without a second thought.
To put it bluntly, after he obtained superpowers, earning money was an extremely simple task for him. What he was pursuing at that moment was his own spiritual satisfaction.
He felt happy and joyful when he was able to make the lives of the people around him better.
After hanging up the call with Xu Lu, Su Yang gave Li Zijun a call. The box office potential of “Fighting The Buddha” was gone and it was almost time for the movie to end. Su Yang felt that it was time to start the “collection mode”‘.
‘Li Zijun is indeed a 3 star genius, she’s thought of everything before I did and has already gone through the settlement process with IQIYI a few days ago.
Now that the first month and second month’s ticket sales has been released, the audit from IQIYI had been approved, all we’re waiting for now is the settlement.’
After confirming that Li Zijun had handled the company in an orderly manner, Su Yang hung up the phone in satisfaction. Then, he started to ponder if he should film anything else other than “Wolf Warriors”.
He thought about it for a long time and realized that… there was nothing to flim. ‘I’ve neither got any projects on hand, nor has there been another company coming to me for a new project. What am I supposed to do now?’
He thought about it and realized that it was all his fault for not having enough resources in the film industry that led to that situation.
‘Should my next step be to expand the resources of the film industry?’
At the thought of the resources in the film industry, Su Yang couldn’t help but think of Lin Jiali’s management agency.
‘This company is the most established company other than Junqing with close to a hundred employees and an extensive array of departments. Furthermore, there’s also Tan Mei, the “hidden” experienced veteren with a wide connection despite having some personality issues.
‘At the time, I’ve asked Tan Mei to give me a summary of the company but I merely skimmed through it without paying much attention to it. Should I use the [A Talent Printer That Likes To Jog] to find some talents that can solve my current issue?
‘However, there’s a limit to the number of times I can still use the [A Talent Printer That Likes To Jog]. I only have 43 times left now, so it’ll be a pity if I squander it.
‘If only there’s a special item that could increase the number of times this item could be used…
‘However, special items don’t seem to be able to interact with each other. Even if I obtained a special item that could increase the number of times, it doesn’t seem like it could be used on [A Talent Printer That Likes To Jog].
‘So, What should I do?’
Su Yang felt like he had fallen into an endless loop of dilema…’
However, as he thought about it, he suddenly managed to come up with a solution.
He suddenly remembered that after his System became +3, he gained a new function, [Fusion And Decomposition].
The function that seemed to be able to give birth to an Ability Combo.
‘Could I try and see if there’s a special item that could have a miraculous change with [A Talent Printer That Likes To Jog]?
‘As for how I find out which special item can make that change… Hmm… I got it! Little Hus!’
That night, Su Yang made a promise to Little Hus that Janet would play with it for 2 hours, in exchange for the condition that it would sniff the item for Su Yang.
When the 33 special items were placed in front of Little Hus, the cloth-made husky started to sniff out which special item could have a wonderful reaction to the [A Talent Printer That Likes To Jog].
However… There were none.
Hence, Su Yang had no choice but to put the matter on hold.
The next day, on Wednesday, Little Deeny continued accumulating stocks while Su Yang went back to his university after being pestered by Chu Xia because the university directors were getting really anxious.
Su Yang arrived at the university but was stopped by Chu Xia before he reached the university building.
It was already the middle of October, and the afterglow of summer had already passed. The weather had turned so cold that even the students on campus had to put on a longer pair of pants, turning from a pair of mini pants to knee length, shin length and now ankle length.
Chu Xia was no exception. Although the girl seemed to be resistant to heat, she was not very resistant to cold, so she had already put on jeans and a jacket.
Even though it was normal to be dressed like that, Chu Xia looked extremely attractive when she wore that, it was like the autumn scenery had become much more beautiful.
When he saw Chu Xia from afar, Su Yang, who was jogging to train his body, could not help but smile. He raised his hand and greeted her, “Yo, Ms. Group Secretary, what a coincidence. Good morning.”
Chu Xia rushed over and naturally grabbed his arm, pulling him along as she said, “Morning? Do you know what time it is now? It’s already 11am! The university’s directors are getting anxious.”
Su Yang was not too bothered by it. His goal of going to university had changed from studying hard to finding a good job into enjoying life. Hence, he was extremely relaxed.
Therefore, even if it was the university’s president, he would not care.
Seeing how anxious Chu Xia was, he pulled the girl to his side and wrapped his right arm around Chu Xia’s shoulder. He said, “What’s the rush? Look at you, you’re so panicked that you’re sweating.”
As he spoke, Su Yang reached out to wipe the sweat off Chu Xia’s forehead. “What do you think you’re doing? Why are you getting so worked up for this university? Are they paying you to do so?”
Chu Xia did not feel uncomfortable when Su Yang held her shoulders. She naturally snuggled against Su Yang’s arm and adjusted herself into a comfortable position. Then, she said, “Would you believe me if I said that I’m being of service to my classmates?”
Su Yang shook his head. “I’m not that stupid.”
Chu Xia looked at Su Yang and smiled brightly. “But I can’t tell how smart you are either.”
As she led Su Yang to the office building, she explained, “Actually, it was merely a coincidence that I joined the student union. After being the host that night, my senior invited me to join the student union. I wanted to experience the life of the student union, so I agreed to do it.”
Su Yang went along with her and asked, “As a result?”
Chu Xia stuck out her tongue. “As a result, it’s extremely tough and tiring. There are so many things to do which are time consuming. Plus, those skills won’t be of much use after graduating.”
“Nowadays, most big companies don’t value the experience in the student union. After all… they recruit talents, not leaders.”
Chu Xia continued, “I plan to quit next semester and concentrate on writing my novel.”
Speaking of novels, Chu Xia asked Su Yang, “By the way, did you use some superpower on me so that I was able to keep on writing continuously?”
