24: Hey beautiful, what are you doing instead of sleeping?

The bronze ancient sword finally revealed its sharp edge.

This immediately stunned the great beauty, Lilac!

Chen Yang smiled smugly.

"How about it? Say 'Brother' for me to hear?"

Lilac curled her lip.

"Psh! It only revealed its head. Who knows what the rest is like?"

Chen Yang said casually:

"I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

Lilac's pretty face flushed slightly.

"Anyone can brag!"

This little girl, her mouth is quite stubborn!

Just wait, let Brother see how he pries open your mouth?

Chen Yang's hand fumbled along the large iron rod.

"Click! Clack!"

All the mechanisms were opened.

Chen Yang gently pulled it out.

A bronze ancient sword, filled with an antique aura, saw the light of day once more.

Lilac nearly dropped her jaw in shock.

She stared blankly for three seconds.

Then she suddenly rushed over and snatched the ancient sword.

"Clang!"

The treasured sword left its sheath!

Many patterns were engraved on the bronze-colored blade, the sharp edge was dazzling, and cold light flickered.

"Swish!"

Lilac lightly swung the treasured sword.

The blade sliced into the wooden armrest, cutting it cleanly and silently.

"It truly is a treasured sword!"

Seeing that Lilac was about to test the sharpness on the iron furniture next,

Chen Yang quickly stopped her.

"Oh, my little ancestor, this is my antique, not a battle sword for you to charge into enemy lines with!"

Lilac's little face was flushed with excitement.

"Chen Yang, sell this sword to me, okay?"

Chen Yang sat back on the sofa, picked up his teacup, and slowly savored the flavor.

"My little sister Lilac, shouldn't you change how you address me first?"

Lilac glared with her beautiful eyes and put her hands on her hips.

"Who is your little sister Lilac? I'm a year older than you!"

Chen Yang was calm and composed.

"Just now, who said they would call me 'Brother' if I won? You were the one who brought it up!"

Lilac stamped her foot, feeling shy and awkward.

"Brother Yang... Little Brother Yang!"

Chen Yang was very dissatisfied.

"If it's Brother Yang, it's Brother Yang. Why 'Little Brother Yang'?"

"What part of me is 'little'?"

It made him feel like a knock-off trying to piggyback on the fame of "Xiao Yang Ge."

Speaking of which, the electronic music festival that Xiao Yang Ge held in Ba Du really became popular.

I didn't have time... actually, I didn't have money.

Otherwise, I definitely would have joined the fun and jumped around a bit.

Maybe I could even bring a girl home.

Lilac remained stubborn.

"You are younger than me, Little Brother Yang, Little Brother Yang, hehe..."

Chen Yang felt helpless.

"Tell me, how much can this sword sell for?"

Lilac instantly quieted down, regaining the elegant temperament of a classical beauty.

Holding the great treasured sword,

she examined it thoroughly, looking and touching, touching and looking.

She was practically about to lick it.

"Ten million, is that okay?"

Chen Yang didn't hesitate: "Deal!"

Soon after.

The treasured sword was sealed and stored, and the payment arrived in his account.

"Ding dong!"

Chen Yang checked his bank information.

10 million was credited, and his total assets soared to 11.5 million.

He had become a genuine multi-millionaire.

While seeing Chen Yang downstairs, Lilac asked casually:

"Little Brother Yang, now that you have tens of millions, what are you planning to do next?"

Chen Yang hadn't yet gotten used to his status as a wealthy man.

He tilted his head and thought for a moment.

"Buy a house and a car, and let my parents live a more comfortable and happier life."

Lilac smiled and said:

"That's life stuff. What about work? Do you have any plans?"

Chen Yang shook his head.

"I haven't considered it yet."

Lilac suddenly extended an olive branch.

"How about you come work for me?"

"Don't worry, the compensation definitely won't be low. An annual salary of eight hundred thousand to a million is definitely not a problem."

Chen Yang was slightly surprised.

"Me? Come here?"

"I don't understand antiques, what would I do here?"

"I won't take money for doing nothing!"

He shook his head like a rattle-drum.

Lilac, however, didn't mind.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand... you can calculate!"

"You don't need to do much. Even if you only do one divination a year, you'll earn back your salary!"

Chen Yang looked at her in shock.

"Do you really think... I can predict things?"

"If I told you it was pure coincidence, would you believe me?"

Lilac curled her lip.

"Only a ghost would believe that!"

...Returning to the hospital.

He saw that his father, Chen Zhongshi, was recovering well.

However, his mother, Yang Aihua, was in poor condition due to worry and exhaustion.

Chen Yang started forming some ideas.

He returned to the hotel and had a wonderful sleep.

The next day, immediately after waking up.

He immediately checked the daily intelligence update.

[Ding!]

[Today's Intelligence Refresh!]

[Intelligence 1]: Chang Xiaotian uses money to corrupt and bribe military officials, providing him with internal information that he then resells to the USA.

[Intelligence 2]: Lilac was sleepless all night, harboring impure thoughts about you.

[Intelligence 3]: At Daming Lake Lakeside, there is a villa whose owner immigrated overseas and is eager to sell it at a discounted price.

Ten months later, the surrounding area will undergo development and renovation, causing the price to increase tenfold.

Just by reading the headlines, Chen Yang smiled.

Today's intelligence reports are all excellent.

There's money to be made, a beautiful woman, and even a spy.

If every day were like this, he'd wake up laughing even while sleeping.

He checked the first piece of intelligence.

That dog Chang Xiaotian truly isn't human.

As a boyfriend,

he deceived feelings, swindled money and sex, and was worse than a beast.

As a person,

he betrayed his country for glory, stole military secrets, committed heinous crimes, and his flesh would be too dirty even to feed to dogs!

A person like this couldn't atone for his sins even if he were executed a hundred times!

Next, he looked at the second piece of intelligence.

This part came with visuals, as if he were there in person.

Inside Lilac's boudoir.

The main color was light green, with some pink and yellow accents.

A faint, subtle fragrance drifted in the air.

It was cozy and sweet.

On the two-meter wide bed.

Lilac was only wearing a thin, sheer slip dress.

Silky and translucent.

She was curled up under the covers, tossing and turning... The image was too real.

Chen Yang quickly cut off the feed!

Deep breath... The third piece of intelligence excited Chen Yang the most.

He was just thinking of buying a house, and a huge bargain fell right into his lap.

Daming Lake Lakeside.

Backed by mountains and facing water, the scenery was beautiful, a paradise on earth.

The villas there were all astronomically priced.

Furthermore, they were extremely difficult to acquire.

Upon careful inspection of the intelligence, because the owner was eager to sell, the large villa, originally valued at 18 million, was listed for only 10 million.

This was perfectly within Chen Yang's budget.

He had 11.5 million, so acquiring this villa was completely feasible.

What was even better was this:

The intelligence also revealed the owner's psychological bottom price.

It was possible to acquire it for just 8 million.

This single piece of information alone could save Chen Yang 2 million.

Moreover,

ten months later, the surrounding area would undergo massive development.

The villa's value would increase by at least tenfold.

By then,

even if he didn't want to sell and continued living there, the surrounding scenery, facilities, and transportation would all greatly improve.

Making it even more livable!

He just had one question: Was this awesome or what?

Immediately.

Chen Yang first sent a message to Lilac.

"Little sister Lilac, you didn't sleep well last night, did you?"

Lilac instantly replied.

"With a pair of panda eyes, what do you think?"

Immediately following, another message came through.

"Wait a minute, you predicted that I didn't sleep well too?"

Chen Yang covered his forehead with his hand.

"Beauty, I have nothing better to do than spend all day predicting your sleep? Is that interesting?"

Lilac, who had just arrived at the Treasure Pavilion, stuck out her tongue.

She quickly typed a reply.

"Who knows if you have any strange fetishes? Like peeping or something."

Chen Yang grew more and more suspicious.

Could this girl really be able to predict things?

"Only a ghost would peep at you! What's so great about your small physique?"

Lilac suddenly felt a bit insecure.

"Am I... really... small?"

Chen Yang thought to himself.

I was just joking, why did you take it seriously?

This topic was getting a bit inappropriate.

Time to change the subject.

"What were you thinking about late at night instead of sleeping? You weren't thinking about me, were you?"

Lilac rolled her eyes, but unfortunately, Chen Yang couldn't see it.

"Conceited! Who was thinking about you?"

Chen Yang replied instantly.

"If you weren't thinking about me, what were you doing late at night instead of sleeping?"

"..."

Lilac's face instantly turned bright red.

Oh my god!

Did he predict it again?
