41: The diversity of the world

Zhang Mantong walked into the CBD office building area.

At a glance, she saw a man standing at the entrance of the building, looking around.

It was Huang Jun.

Shao Shushuang's simp.

Huang Jun saw her too.

Shao Shushuang had told him over WeChat.

"My best friend will be over to drop off some documents later."

"She'll be wearing cycling gear, so she'll be easy to recognize."

"Once you get them, help me pass them to President Tang's secretary, Liu Qi!"

Cycling gear...

Huang Jun's gaze swept over the area, and he immediately spotted the blonde beauty wearing red and white cycling gear.

However, upon seeing that familiar, alluring face.

Huang Jun's brain went "buzz," and his face was filled with shock.

He let out a curse.

"Damn!"

"Man Tong!"

He was too familiar with this person.

Man Tong.

A local Internet Celebrity from Gannan.

She had hundreds of thousands of followers on Douyin.

Huang Jun had watched her videos many times.

In her videos, she was often driving a Porsche, frequenting various high-end venues, and decked out in luxury goods from head to toe.

A proper Baimi.

However...

"Shu Shuang is actually her best friend?!"

Huang Jun was shocked.

"Something's not right."

"How come I've never heard Shu Shuang mention it?"

"She has a Baimi best friend?"

Huang Jun's brain spun rapidly, and he quickly found a reason for it.

"Shu Shuang must want to keep a low profile!"

"After all, she is a civil servant!"

"She doesn't want to be too flashy..."

Thinking of this, he began to feel a bit excited.

To be best friends with a Baimi of Man Tong's level.

Then Shao Shushuang...

Could her family background be simple?

"No wonder she always has that air of haughty elegance."

"So she's also a hidden Baimi!"

If he could marry Shao Shushuang.

Wouldn't that save him decades of hard work?

"Shu Shuang even talked to me so much today."

"She must have a good impression of me."

Huang Jun thought happily.

He felt full of energy.

He raised his hand and called out to Zhang Mantong.

"Over here!"

Seeing this, Zhang Mantong walked over.

Huang Jun looked at the alluring face close by.

Her extreme figure was outlined by the exaggerated curves of the cycling gear.

He didn't even dare to look directly at her.

This woman.

She was an existence with maxed-out sexual tension.

"Are you Huang Jun?"

"That's me."

"These are the documents Shu Shuang asked me to deliver, so I'll leave them with you."

She shoved the kraft paper envelope over.

"Thanks for your hard work, Sister Man."

"I'll be going then."

Zhang Mantong tossed her long golden hair and walked straight out of the building.

She looked up.

The sun hadn't set yet.

The buildings in the CBD were already brightly lit.

"Sigh."

"All just corporate slaves."

Zhang Mantong sighed with emotion.

She got on her bike but didn't leave immediately.

Once upon a time.

She was also one of these corporate slaves.

Working at a small company, earning a salary of three thousand a month, acting as a vase receptionist.

Every time she got off work, she would scroll through short videos.

This young lady was vacationing in the Maldives.

That young lady was watching a fashion show in Paris.

And another, shopping in luxury stores like she was at a vegetable market, buying clothes and perfumes that Zhang Mantong could only afford if she didn't eat or drink for a month.

The disparity of the world was infinitely magnified under this extremely developed information age.

The more she scrolled, the more the platform recommended such content.

The more she watched, the more unbalanced she felt.

Zhang Mantong wasn't reconciled to this.

Why couldn't she live that kind of life?

She wasn't bad looking.

It was just that her background couldn't compare to theirs!

She also wanted to be a Baimi.

She also wanted to be envied by others.

Under the influence of various emotions of envy, jealousy, and hatred, Zhang Mantong quit her job.

She decided to switch careers and become a video blogger.

She rented expensive gowns and a Porsche to build a Baimi persona for herself online.

Unexpectedly.

She gradually gained a little fame.

But she was still not satisfied.

The monetization capability of this lane wasn't strong.

Moreover, the expenses of pretending to be a Baimi were too high.

Her current monthly income from filming videos and taking advertisements was more than ten times what it was when she worked before.

But this money had to be poured back into maintaining the Baimi persona.

Now, she could barely maintain a balance between income and expenditure.

"Sigh."

"A real Baimi doesn't need to work herself."

"Doesn't need to edit videos or manage accounts herself."

Zhang Mantong knew better.

On her own, it was almost impossible for her to live the life of a real rich woman.

"Life is too hard."

Zhang Mantong shook her head and sighed.

She rode her bike and leisurely strolled around the CBD park area.

Suddenly.

She saw a familiar figure.

That figure opened the door of a black Audi and took something from the driver's seat.

Then he walked into the office building again.

"It's him!"

Zhang Mantong's beautiful eyes blinked.

Isn't this the tall, rich, and handsome guy she knocked over earlier?

He's driving... an A8?

She rode her bike closer to the car.

She examined it carefully.

Soon, a gleam flashed in Zhang Mantong's beautiful eyes.

She saw the "H" letter with a crown on the car body.

"horch!"

Zhang Mantong's heart skipped a beat.

For ordinary people.

There doesn't seem to be much difference between a car costing several hundred thousand and one costing over a million.

Anyway, they can't afford either.

But Zhang Mantong knew very well.

There is a qualitative difference between them.

A car costing several hundred thousand is something many people can hope to reach if they work hard for a lifetime and stand on their tiptoes.

But a super-luxury car worth over a million...

If you aren't born with it.

Then 99% of people will never be able to own one in their lifetime.

Being able to drive a horch worth over a million.

This is definitely the true wealthy class!

"He really is a tall, rich, and handsome guy!"

Zhang Mantong was pleasantly surprised.

"Could it be that this is heaven giving me a chance to marry into a wealthy family?"

Compared to those fifty or sixty-year-old men with receding hairlines and potbellies.

The handsome and dashing Chen Qiu was undoubtedly a dream god-level man!

"Anyway, I've already added him on WeChat."

"I'll chat with him properly when I get back."

She rode her bike away and went straight back to the residential complex.

After taking off her cycling gear and taking a shower, Zhang Mantong returned to the living room and happened to run into Shao Shushuang who had just returned.

"How are you? Are you feeling any better?"

Seeing Shao Shushuang's slightly pale face, Zhang Mantong asked with concern.

"It's okay, at least I'm not as dizzy as I was this morning."

Shao Shushuang took off her coat and replied weakly.

Seeing this, Zhang Mantong suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, I haven't heard you talk about your blind date yet!"

Shao Shushuang's movements paused.

"Just a man who made a little money in the financial market by luck, nothing to talk about!"

Hearing her arrogant words, Zhang Mantong shook her head slightly.

"Tsk tsk, it seems our Director Shao has exceptionally high standards!"

Although she and Shao Shushuang were best friends, the two of them had completely different life philosophies!

Compared to her simple, mindless pursuit of becoming a Baimi who could eat, drink, and play everywhere without working, Shao Shushuang valued ability, strength, and power much more!

Although this woman always claimed she was realizing the value of her self-pursuits.

But Zhang Mantong always suspected that Shao Shushuang was simply obsessed with power!

"Why, have you found a man who can help you achieve your pursuits?"

Shao Shushuang asked casually while changing her clothes.

Zhang Mantong raised her phone and chuckled.

"I'm working on it!"

Soon, Shao Shushuang changed into a white professional suit and walked out of the room.

Seeing this, Zhang Mantong raised an eyebrow, and a look of astonishment flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"Don't tell me you're going to work?"

"Of course not..."

"The Cultural Industry Group has a newly appointed president, and there's a welcome banquet tonight. Our Culture and Tourism Bureau also received an invitation, so I definitely have to go and get recognized!"

Seeing Shao Shushuang's expression, which didn't seem fake, Zhang Mantong's red lips parted slightly.

"Please, you just finished your IV drip and you're going to socialize?"

"Is it worth it? You're just a small fry!"

Shao Shushuang turned to look at her and said seriously.

"It's precisely because I'm a small fry that I can't miss any opportunity to climb up!"

After speaking, she put on a little light makeup to make herself look better.

Seeing this, Zhang Mantong was completely impressed by her.

Ambitious women are too terrifying!

"Then I wish you success in getting into the department soon..."

Zhang Mantong muttered, took out her phone, and posted some of the cycling photos she took today on platforms like Douyin and Xiaohongshu, along with a caption.

"Another day of intense sweating!"

After posting the update, Zhang Mantong thought for a moment and edited and pinned a photo in her comment section.

It was a picture of her looking gorgeous and alluring, leaning against a low-key, brand-new horch.

It was one she had just taken downstairs at the Cultural Industry Group.

She very slyly didn't add a caption.

A few minutes later, someone commented.

"Sister Man, did you get a new car again?"

"Holy f*ck, a horch, as expected of Sister Man!"

"Rich woman, feed me!"

Seeing the direction of the comment section go as she expected, Zhang Mantong's red lips curled up slightly!

"I'm leaving, remember not to lock the door tonight!"

"Okay."

After watching Shao Shushuang leave, Zhang Mantong let out a slight sigh.

She opened the WeChat of the tall, rich, and handsome man she had just added.

Since Shao Shushuang is so ambitious, she should work hard too!
