82: Why is there such a huge difference between people?
Lilac's gift.
It stunned everyone!
Everyone gathered around to get a glimpse of the God of Wealth!
There were a few young, beautiful waitresses.
They clasped their hands together and bowed to the golden God of Wealth.
They even muttered prayers.
“Oh God of Wealth, I pray to you, please grant me great wealth this year!”
“Oh Lord God of Wealth, please send me a handsome, rich young man, I beg you!”
“Uncle God of Wealth, you are so handsome! Could you find me a handsome man just like you?”
... Xiao Yu was truly shocked!
If the amounts on the gift list earlier could have been fabricated by Chen Yang,
this dazzling, golden, living God of Wealth before her couldn't possibly be made up, could it?
Could it be that her guess was wrong?
Chen Yang wasn't a kept man at all.
On the contrary,
he was too popular.
It just didn't make sense.
Why were all these beautiful women throwing themselves at him like moths to a flame?
They all liked him?
Was it really just… because he was too handsome?
Just then,
Chen Yang suddenly received a call from Liu Sisi.
“Chen Yang, I’m almost at the villa entrance, but the car is blocked and can’t get in.”
Chen Yang immediately ran out.
He arrived about 200 meters away.
Indeed, he saw five cars stopped on the road,
completely blocking it.
Liu Sisi and Xiao Yu got out of the car and were negotiating with the drivers.
It didn't seem to be going well.
Chen Yang ran over and greeted the group of drivers.
“Big brothers, could you please move your cars so my friends can pass?”
One young driver, full of arrogance, said,
“Sorry, these are the Zhang Corporation CEO's cars. CEO Zhang will be back in a moment, and we dare not move them easily.”
“Otherwise, our jobs would be at risk.”
Chen Yang was slightly startled.
The Zhang Corporation was a famous and powerful conglomerate in Jiangcheng.
Their actions were inevitably a bit overbearing.
He patiently continued to communicate.
“Then could you at least move one car to clear half the road?”
The young driver still shook his head.
He was completely uncooperative.
“Not a single car can be moved.”
Chen Yang's temper flared.
Where did this arrogant jerk come from, with his nose in the air?
The Zhang Corporation might be powerful, but why was a mere driver acting so smug?
As they were at an impasse,
a group of people approached from a distance, surrounding a pot-bellied middle-aged man.
The young driver scurried over to greet him.
“Big cousin… uh, CEO Zhang, you’re back.”
The pot-bellied middle-aged man frowned and glanced at him but said nothing.
The young driver quickly reported in a low voice,
“CEO Zhang, someone is causing trouble, asking us to move the cars.”
“A man and a woman. The man’s identity isn’t clear, but the woman seems to be the big singer, Liu Sisi.”
Zhang Dajiang curled his lips.
“Liu Sisi? Just a singer, nothing special.”
He walked directly up to Liu Sisi.
Zhang Dajiang forced a smile.
“Miss Liu, hello. I am Zhang Dajiang. Might I have the honor of inviting you to lunch?”
Liu Sisi's delicate brows furrowed slightly.
“CEO Zhang, I’m sorry, but I have an important event to attend today. I truly apologize.”
The smile on Zhang Dajiang's face gradually vanished.
He turned to look at Chen Yang.
“May I ask, who are you…?”
Chen Yang smiled.
“I am the owner of Villa No. 8, Chen Yang. I’m officially moving in today.”
Zhang Dajiang gave a fake smile.
He began to probe.
“Villa No. 8? What a coincidence, I live in Villa No. 6, right next door to you.”
“May I ask where Mr. Chen works?”
Chen Yang smiled faintly.
“Nowhere special, just staying at home for now, a free man.”
Zhang Dajiang’s smile instantly disappeared.
Hmph!
An unemployed loafer?
Does such a person deserve to live next door to me?
Chen Yang reminded him,
“CEO Zhang, could I trouble you to move your cars?”
Zhang Dajiang ignored him.
He turned back to Liu Sisi.
“Miss Liu, are you really… not going to reconsider?”
Liu Sisi felt extreme disgust.
What was wrong with this man?
She had already refused, yet he kept harassing her.
He had no demeanor of a prominent figure at all.
Chen Yang was even more displeased.
Damn it!
This Zhang Dajiang completely disregarded him.
He was trying to poach his woman right in front of him.
However,
today was a joyous day for his housewarming, and he didn't want to cause trouble.
He didn't want to spoil everyone's mood.
Zhang Dajiang gave Liu Sisi and Chen Yang a deep, displeased look before getting into his car.
Today, he was leading his company team to inspect Daming Lake.
He also didn't want any unnecessary complications.
According to internal information implicitly revealed by his patron, a certain vice mayor,
Daming Lake
was about to be developed into a tourist resort in Jiangcheng.
Zhang Dajiang had to seize this opportunity.
He needed to plan ahead
and strive for greater profits in the near future.
The road was clear again.
Liu Sisi and Xiao Yu walked through the villa gate.
Two rows of beautiful and generous receptionists cheered enthusiastically.
“Welcome, Heavenly Queen Liu, to our home!”
“Welcome, Miss Xiao Yu, to our home!”
Liu Sisi and Xiao Yu were startled.
Then,
they presented their gifts.
“Xiao Yu wishes Brother Yang: A happy housewarming, good luck and prosperity!”
“Presented: 2 pairs of Lucky Bamboo.”
“Liu Sisi wishes Chen Yang: A happy housewarming, may all your wishes come true!”
“Presented: 2 Patek Philippe watches, total value 1.2 million.”
Chen Yang looked at Liu Sisi.
“Sisi, you’re giving such an expensive gift, how can I accept it?”
Liu Sisi smiled gently.
“You saved my life, and soon you'll be risking danger to protect me on our trip to Caiyun City.”
“What is this small amount of money?”
“Besides, aren't we good friends?”
“I've always wanted to give you a gift, but I was afraid you wouldn't accept it. It's the perfect opportunity today, you won't refuse, will you?”
Chen Yang laughed.
“Such an expensive watch, of course… I’ll gladly accept it!”
The few of them chatted and laughed as they entered the main hall.
“Uncle, Auntie, hello!”
Liu Sisi quickly greeted Chen Zhongshi and Yang Aihua.
At this moment,
besides Liu Changhe and his partner, and Xu Wenqing alone, by the old couple's side,
the rest were all beautiful women.
Han Feixue, Feng Danqing, Lilac, Liu Sisi… a group of them.
They surrounded Yang Aihua, chattering away.
They were incredibly enthusiastic.
It made her feel very… flattered!
Oh my!
So many, such wonderful girls.
Who should she choose… to be her daughter-in-law?
She was already spoiled for choice.
She couldn't stop smiling!
Xiao Yu sat on the side, observing coolly.
Her heart grew even more puzzled.
It didn't seem like Chen Yang was a kept man, sweet-talking rich women.
Instead,
all these beautiful women were revolving around Chen Yang?
It was too strange!
What was going on?
Was this even logical?
Liu Changhe looked at his girlfriend, Xiao Yu.
Then he looked at all the beautiful women in the room.
His heart was especially sour!
Although Xiao Yu was pretty good-looking,
her temper wasn't great, she was very strong-willed, and always dominated him.
She worked at the factory, earning three to five thousand a month.
She was stingy and snobbish.
Then he looked at Chen Yang's side.
Han Feixue, Feng Danqing, Lilac, all beautiful ceos.
Rich young ladies, rolling in money.
Liu Sisi.
A top-tier Heavenly Queen, a big singer.
Millions of fans, beautiful and sweet-voiced.
She was the dream girl of countless people.
Which of these beautiful women wasn't showering Chen Yang with care and attention?
Just looking at the gifts made one envious.
Millions thrown away!
Would you dare to do that?
Why was the gap between people so huge?
Did Chen Yang do so many good deeds in his previous life, or did he save the world?
How did all the good things happen to him?
However,
envy aside, Liu Changhe wasn't jealous.
He was always a kind-hearted person.
He was genuinely happy for Chen Yang!
If his old classmate became successful, and he put in a good word, he could also benefit.
It wouldn't be long.
A project manager position was definitely within reach.
Yang Aihua suddenly looked at Liu Changhe.
She asked caringly,
“Changhe, how are the wedding preparations going for you and Xiao Yu?”
“We’re still waiting to drink your wedding wine!”
Liu Changhe's expression changed.
He looked at Xiao Yu, his face very unnatural.
“We…”
