Zhou Wanshing smiled. The moment she smiled, Su Xuan’s goal was achieved. All this fuss was just to get her to relax and cheer up. Su Xuan soon learned from the Didi drivers why they were late. It turned out they were arguing over who deserved the credit, and they still hadn’t sorted it out. Afterward, Su Xuan said just one thing that made the drivers beam with joy: he was increasing the bonus to 100,000, to be split equally among all of them! Plus, he was waiving a month’s platform commission for each of them. "The boss is so generous!" "The boss is incredible!" "With a good boss like you, we’ll drive for Didi for the rest of our lives!" "Boss, if an opportunity comes up again, please let us know. We’ll be there at your beck and call!" The Didi drivers left, laughing and joking. They also took the two young men with them, presumably to the hospital. "Brother Su, you went through so much trouble just for my bag. I feel so embarrassed," Zhou Wanshing said with her head lowered after the Didi drivers had gone. Su Xuan glanced at Zhou Wanshing and teased, "But you took a knife for me. Isn’t my life worth a hundred thousand?" "Of course it is!" Zhou Wanshing burst into laughter again. Su Xuan added, "Besides, that hundred-thousand-yuan bonus isn’t coming out of my own pocket. The company’s paying for it!" Zhou Wanshing looked at Su Xuan with admiration. "Brother Su, you’re the boss of Lycar, Mesis, and even Didi—you’re amazing!" Su Xuan shrugged and bragged in a low-key manner, "It’s nothing special. Just trying to make a living." Then, Su Xuan and Zhou Wanshing got into the Koenigsegg. Just as Su Xuan was about to ask if she wanted to go home, Zhou Wanshing received a phone call. "Honey, don’t come home tonight! I accidentally broke the lock when I was opening the door, and now it won’t open. Just make do at Su Xuan’s place for the night!" Aunt Zhang’s voice came from the phone. "Mom, can’t you just call a locksmith?" Zhou Wanshing’s face turned red. "Where am I supposed to find a locksmith this late? Anyway, I’m off to play mahjong all night, so I’m leaving you to it. Bye!" Aunt Zhang hung up without another word. The car suddenly fell quiet. Su Xuan rubbed his chin, trying not to smile. Aunt Zhang is actually pushing her beautiful daughter on me. What a straightforward woman! "Brother Su, I..." A moment later, Zhou Wanshing looked up at Su Xuan, hesitating. "No worries!" Su Xuan started the car and smiled. "You’re welcome to stay at my place. Do you want to go straight there, or would you like to hang out for a bit longer?" Zhou Wanshing thought for a moment. "How about we go see a movie or walk through the park?" The main purpose of tonight was a blind date. Her mother wanted to set her up with Su Xuan. With that in mind, watching a movie or walking in the park seemed more appropriate. Going straight to Su Xuan’s place felt like moving too fast. "Alright! Movie first, then a walk in the park." Su Xuan drove Zhou Wanshing toward a nearby cinema. "Oh, right!" Just as they were approaching the theater, Zhou Wanshing suddenly remembered something. She took out her phone, tapped it a few times, and said sheepishly, "Brother Su, remember how I hired your car to go to the job fair yesterday? I ended up not going, and I completely forgot to pay you. Here’s the payment and a five-star review!" she giggled. The moment Zhou Wanshing finished speaking, a system notification sounded in Su Xuan’s mind. "DING! Congratulations to the Host for completing a super order!" "DING! The Host is rewarded with the status of primary shareholder in Yike Real Estate Development Company, holding a 51% stake!" Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝕟𝕖𝕥 "DING! Second Stage Task Progress: 4/10." Immediately, information about Yike Real Estate Development Company flooded into Su Xuan’s brain. Yike was one of the top ten real estate development companies in the country. It had appeared on Forbes’ lists of "Global Top 200 Best Small and Medium Enterprises," "Asia’s Top 200 Best Small Enterprises," and "Asia’s 50 Best Listed Companies." Its developments were spread all over China, well-received and loved by consumers everywhere. Its market value was as high as 200 billion yuan, and it had even made it onto the Fortune Global 500 list! Even with his reinforced mental fortitude, Su Xuan couldn’t help but feel his heart race. This is the biggest reward the system has ever given me! Based on my 51% stake, my net worth just soared by a hundred billion! My total net worth is about to reach 400 billion! With another three or four hundred billion, I’ll be a hundred-billion-dollar tycoon, finally meeting old man Richard’s requirement! And it took almost no time at all! Several hours later, in the presidential suite of a luxurious hotel in Turkmenistan, Richard was leisurely smoking a cigar while enjoying a foot massage from a Turkmen girl. He was still in Turkmenistan for business and had not yet returned home. "Susanna, what do you think that kid Su Xuan is up to right now?" Richard exhaled a puff of smoke and asked the brunette beauty standing behind him—the very same one Su Xuan had beaten up at the airport. "He’s probably out wining and dining," Susanna said. "Why do you say that?" Richard asked. "The hundred-billion-dollar net worth you demanded is too high. He’ll never achieve it," Susanna analyzed. "When people fail to reach a goal, they tend to give up and indulge themselves." "You have a point," Richard nodded. "I’m giving him five years, tops. If he can’t reach a net worth of a hundred billion US dollars in five years, I’ll have to marry Alice off. A woman’s youth is..." "Daddy, Daddy!" Suddenly, a blonde figure burst in, exclaiming excitedly, "News just came in from China! Su Xuan acquired a 51% stake in Yike Real Estate, making him the majority shareholder! His net worth is now around 60 billion US dollars!" Who else could this blonde figure be but Alice? "What?!" Richard’s eyes went wide. Back at the airport in China, his net worth was less than 20 billion US dollars. How did it suddenly jump to 60 billion? Even robbing a bank isn’t this fast, is it? Richard said to Alice, "My dear daughter, I know you’re eager to see him and have been following his news every day. But it’s wrong to deceive your father, and I’m not so easily fooled." "After we left, he started acquiring shares in companies like Tianchou Film, Didi, and Raeff Pharmaceutical at an astonishing speed. His net worth has been skyrocketing!" Alice said excitedly. "At this rate, he’ll reach a hundred billion dollars in no time, and then I’ll be able to see him!" With a grim expression, Richard picked up a nearby tablet and used his own channels to verify the information. A few minutes later, he tossed the tablet aside, rubbed his face, and exclaimed in a crude Chinese phrase he had learned, "He’s really fucking awesome!"
