Chapter 1238 Wealth and wealth are overwhelming, and the gap between people
Since the last time Wang Ying announced that she was Zhou Chen's girlfriend in front of Zhang Xin in the cafeteria.
After that, Zhou Chen avoided a lot of trouble. Although many female classmates had a crush on him and wanted to pursue him, but only if they didn't have a girlfriend.
Now he has a girlfriend. They are all top students who have been admitted to Beiqing. They all have their own arrogance, and the atmosphere is not as 'open' as it was many years ago. It is very unpleasant to spread the news about cheating on your boyfriend. Now everyone
Most people care about reputation, but few people do this.
Although Zhou Chen also likes women and likes the feeling of being surrounded by women, after all, he has rich experience and his desire is no longer as strong as before.
As you experience more, your pursuits will change. In the past, you may have pursued quality and quantity, but now you are more pursuing quality.
Wang Ying may not be the most beautiful woman in terms of appearance, but she has a different filter, and there are mission bonuses. Anyway, Zhou Chen just feels that his girlfriend Wang Ying is better and better than other women.
.
The school playground, corridors, wooden benches on both sides of the road, library, canteen...
Zhou Chen and Wang Ying walked through most places in the school together, leaving their footprints in many places. Even when Zhou Chen invited Wang Ying to his dormitory to learn English several times, Wang Ying refused, which became a small part of his life.
A small regret.
He likes to be a teacher, but he has no choice but to suffer from disobedient students.
On this day, Zhou Chen and Wang Ying made an appointment to go see a movie together. After watching a movie, they went shopping together.
"When I went home yesterday, my mother asked me about what happened with you. I told her the truth, and she also said she wanted to invite you to her house."
Wang Ying held Zhou Chen's hand and suddenly talked about this matter.
"Really? Does our mother already know about us?"
Wang Ying stopped with a scoff and looked at Zhou Chen with a strange look.
"You are too thick-skinned, my mother, my mother."
"I'm thick-skinned. Didn't you give me the verdict a long time ago? I know it's your mother, but sooner or later she will be my mother-in-law. Anyway, it's only a matter of time, so I called her in advance."
"You are eloquent and smooth. If my parents saw you like this, they would definitely think you are unreliable."
Wang Ying rolled her eyes, but there was nothing she could do against Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen held her hand tightly and said softly: "You can rest assured, I only speak like this in front of you. In front of your parents, I promise to be serious and confident, and let them know that you will be my girlfriend.
No loss at all.”
Wang Ying touched Zhou Chen with her elbow: "There is nothing wrong with relationships. I am not afraid at all of taking you to see my parents. Do you dare to go?"
She has confidence not only because she likes Zhou Chen, but also because Zhou Chen can do it.
Even among the young talents she knew, Zhou Chen was extremely outstanding. Even though her father was picky, based on her understanding of Zhou Chen, she still felt that Zhou Chen would not show timidity in front of her father.
Zhou Chen smiled confidently: "There is no word "dare" in my dictionary. As long as you say it, I can go with you now."
"That's pretty much it."
Wang Ying showed a happy and satisfied smile.
Zhou Chen can give this answer without hesitation, which shows that Zhou Chen is not afraid to meet her parents, which is a kind of confidence for her.
She is not afraid to take Zhou Chen home to meet her parents, and Zhou Chen is not afraid to take her home to meet his parents. This is a two-way journey.
"I want to eat ice cream."
"No problem, go buy it. One for your left hand and one for your right hand. You can feed it to me, mouth to mouth, no problem."
"Hey, are you disgusting?"
Wang Ying shivered. Although they talked for a while, held hands, hugged, and even kissed, it was only a brief contact and it did not reach a deeper level.
"It's not disgusting. Once you get used to it, it won't be disgusting anymore. I'll show you an example now."
"Yeah, go away, don't, there are so many people here."
Although Wang Ying struggled hard, Zhou Chen finally held her face in her hands and pecked her lips gently.
Although Wang Ying is usually generous in front of others, when she gets close to Zhou Chen, she becomes very shy, even shyer than the average novice.
But the more she behaves like this, the more Zhou Chen likes to tease her, which makes him very happy every time.
"There is a Hermès store in front of you. Come on, let's go shopping. Speaking of which, we have been in love for so long and I haven't bought you cosmetics, clothes or bags yet. I just happened to see it today. Let's go shopping."
Wang Ying grabbed Zhou Chen and said, "Forget it, this brand is quite expensive."
Zhou Chen stretched out his hand to smooth the scattered bangs on her forehead, and said in a low voice: "When I buy something for you, it only depends on whether it is suitable, not whether it is expensive or not. Wang Ying, what I told you before is not the same.
I’m not bragging, I’m very rich, and I earned it through my own abilities and it has nothing to do with my family.”
"So the things I buy for you are all made with money that I can control. No matter how much I spend, you don't have to feel any pressure. Of course, a young lady like you certainly won't.
There’s pressure, right.”
Wang Ying glared at Zhou Chen charmingly and hummed: "Since you said so yourself, what else can I dare not to do? I will make you spend a lot of money today."
Zhou Chen also showed a smile.
You need to use different methods to spend money with different women. Wang Ying has never been short of money since she was a child. The fact that she can take care of his money at this time shows that she really cares about him.
What he is not afraid of the most is spending money. What he cares more about is that Wang Ying is in front of him. She doesn't have to hide herself and can just be herself. He can afford Wang Ying's consumption.
In the Hermès store, Wang Ying put on a drag show for Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen was so excited that when she left, she invited her back to the dormitory to learn English again.
Unfortunately, he was still rejected by Wang Ying's gentle tone.
Wang Ying walked into the dormitory carrying a few handbags, threw her things on the table, and sat down on the chair next to her.
"I'm exhausted, Xu Lin, is there any hot water in the water bottle? I want to soak my feet."
The three people in the dormitory all looked at Wang Ying and the bag Wang Ying put on the table.
Xu Lin jumped down from the upper bunk in one stride, rushed to the table, picked up the handbag and looked at it.
"Oh my god, this is Hermès, right? There are so many, Wang Ying, have you gone to buy some?"
As a woman, she is naturally interested in famous brands, even Xiao Qianxi is no exception. After she came to university, she was influenced by them and gained a lot of knowledge.
She has also heard of the Hermès brand. It is an international luxury brand, and the products of this brand are shockingly expensive.
"Is this Hermès?" Xiao Qianxi was very curious.
Xie Qiao said uncertainly: "It should be true."
Xu Lin said with certainty: "That must be true. Can we, Miss Wang Ying, buy fakes? Impossible, but this is too much, right? Clothes, skirts, shoes, wow, there are so many
There are bags, and there are so many cosmetics in them."
Xie Qiao and Xiao Qianxi were also shocked. How much do they cost for so many luxuries?
"Wang Ying, didn't you go out with Zhou Chen? Why did you bring back so many things? Don't tell me, Zhou Chen bought these for you?"
Wang Ying said casually: "He bought it all. Okay, please give in. I want to soak my feet. I'm too tired today."
When Xu Lin and the other three heard this, their six eyes widened.
"Zhou Chen bought it all. Are you crazy? How much does it cost?"
"There are tickets inside, take a look for yourselves. By the way, the perfumes and cosmetics in that bag are all gifts. If you don't mind, just take them and share them."
"I don't dislike it. I don't dislike it. It's a gift from Hermès. It's much better than ordinary cosmetics. Whoever dislikes it is a fool."
Xu Lin opened the gift bag and smiled when he saw the perfume inside.
"Qiaoqiao, Qianxi, we can use these together."
Xiao Qianxi looked very moved, but still shook her head and said: "It's too expensive, I don't dare to use it."
Xie Qiao also said: "I have it myself."
"You two are serious. You both said this is a gift. We belong to the same dormitory. There is no need to be so polite."
Xu Lin is not restrained at all. To be precise, she is used to rubbing Wang Ying's things, but she also works hard. She usually does all the labor that belongs to Wang Ying in the dormitory, including fetching water and food.
I've done it often.
If Xiao Qianxi has a better relationship with Xie Qiao in the dormitory, then her relationship with Wang Ying is better.
Xu Lin took out the invoice from his handbag, took a look at it, and screamed.
"One hundred and eighty-six thousand, my God, am I dazzled? This set of clothes and cosmetics adds up to more than one hundred and eighty thousand?"
Xie Qiao and Xiao Qianxi were frightened when they heard this number. What was the concept of 180,000?
For Xiao Qianxi, this was a huge amount of money that she could not imagine. Even for Xie Qiao, a local, 180,000 yuan was still a scary figure for her.
With so much money, they got a whole set of clothes and a bag, which was a luxury they could never imagine.
Especially for Xiao Qianxi, this simply subverted her values. The total number of clothes she wore from childhood to adulthood was probably not enough for 10,000, let alone 186,000.
Xu Lin asked in shock: "Wang Ying, is this really all given to you by Zhou Chen? He paid more than 180,000 yuan alone?"
"yes."
"I knew Zhou Chen was rich for a long time, but I didn't expect him to be so wealthy. He only has 180,000 yuan at his fingertips. Is he still a human being?"
"What are you talking about? That's my boyfriend. To put it mildly, 180,000 yuan is a lot, but I also bought him clothes, which are about the same price."
Wang Ying's words made the three people in the dormitory not know what to say.
Look at people's consumption outlook. When they are still considering clothes worth tens of dollars, they have already bought hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands.
It turns out that Xie Qiao and Xiao Qianxi thought Wang Ying shouldn't let Zhou Chen spend so much money, but now they really have nothing to say. They have come and gone, and they don't care, so why are they feeling so distressed?
"Comparing people with each other is so irritating." Xu Lin sighed with emotion.
"Miss, please sit down while I go get water for you and wash your feet. Thank you for taking care of me and giving me the opportunity to use cosmetics from international famous brands."
Xu Lin transformed instantly and happily served Wang Ying, which made Wang Ying very uncomfortable and did not want her to help. She was not happy.
Although Wang Ying has been pampered since she was a child and is used to being served by others, she does not want to be superior to others in the dormitory, nor will she instruct others to do anything for her. The things Xu Lin does are basically her own initiative.
Looking at the luxury goods placed casually on the table by Wang Ying, Xiao Qianxi's eyes were extremely complicated.
She had lived a hard life since she was a child, and had always wanted to live a good life through her own efforts. However, after arriving in the capital, she discovered that her proud grades and intelligence were not as good as anything else at Beiqing University.
Not really.
She was inferior to others in every aspect, but she never thought of admitting defeat. She still felt that she would succeed with her own efforts.
But today, Zhou Chen and Wang Ying made her realize another side.
Zhou Chen and Wang Ying spent a random shopping trip and spent an astonishing amount of money that she would never touch in her life.
She rarely envied others, but at this moment, she admitted that she was jealous. She suddenly realized that no matter how hard she tried, she might not be able to reach the heights of Zhou Chen and Wang Ying in the end, let alone live like them.
Life.
She suppressed the jealousy in her heart and forced herself to continue studying. Jealousy could not get her what she wanted. Only hard work could make it possible.
Compared to Xiao Qianxi, Xie Qiao was much simpler. She was purely shocked and envious, and was frightened by Zhou Chen and Wang Ying's consumption.
Xu Lin played with the gifts and kept sighing.
"Zhou Chen is really rich. If I can find a man half as rich as him, no, one-tenth as rich as him, I will be satisfied."
Wang Ying soaked her feet and relaxed completely. She smiled softly when she heard Xu Lin's words.
In fact, 180,000 yuan was not dispensable to her. Even though she knew Zhou Chen had money, she was still touched by the way he spent it for her without frowning and swiping his credit card directly.
What she cares about is not money, but attitude.
In the blink of an eye, Qin Chuan and Da Long's pancake stall had been open at the school window for a month. At the end of the month, Qin Chuan took He Xiaozhou, Zhou Chen and Xie Qiao to his rental house to help settle the accounts.
Zhou Chen had nothing to do, so he went with him, but He Xiaozhou did the settling of accounts without him having to do anything.
He Xiaozhou looked at a pile of bills, purchase orders, etc., and clicked the calculator loudly.
Qin Chuan and Xie Qiao leaned their heads together, looking expectantly at He Xiaozhou settling accounts.
Finally, He Xiaozhou finished the last calculation, stopped tapping his fingers on the calculator, and sighed.
Upon hearing the sigh, Qin Chuan and Xie Qiao immediately became nervous.
"How's it going? Did you make any money?"
He Xiaozhou looked serious, slowly turned the numbers on the calculator to Qin Chuan and Xie Qiao, and said solemnly: "First month, net profit, 3,260."
In an instant, Qin Chuan and Xie Qiao cheered excitedly, and He Xiaozhou also looked excited. The three of them high-fived each other, while Zhou Chen, who was sitting aside, looked at them calmly.
Seeing Zhou Chen's lack of reaction, Qin Chuan rushed over.
"Zhou Chen, we have made money. You and Wang Ying also have shares in this pancake stall. We have made money, which means you have also made money. Get excited."
"Excited? I hold a total of 5% of the shares, 3,000 yuan, and the dividend is given to me, which is only 150 yuan. Tell me, how should I be excited?" Zhou Chen asked.
The smile on Qin Chuan's face froze instantly, but Xie Qiao was very dissatisfied and defended Qin Chuan.
"Zhou Chen, I know that three thousand yuan is nothing to you, but this is only the first month. Qin Chuan has made so much in the first month, and he will only make more in the future. I know that you give
Wang Ying spent 180,000 yuan to buy a set of clothes and cosmetics. She didn't care about the profits, but that was different. This was the money Qin Chuan earned with his own hands and hard work, not relying on his family. This was certainly worth getting excited about.
"
Qin Chuan stared blankly at Xie Qiao, who was fighting for him, his eyes filled with emotion.
Zhou Chen sighed and said to He Xiaozhou: "Did you hear that I just said one thing and became a villain?"
He Xiaozhou shook his head and said with a smile: "Who asked you to attack Chuanzi? It's not easy to be in Chuanzi. Making so much money in the first month is a happy event. You should be happy for him."
"Okay, I'm happy, I'm happy. Let's celebrate tonight and we won't go home until we get drunk."
"I agree, I agree, I will treat Dong Laishun tonight and give him a good meal." Qin Chuan raised his hands in agreement.
He Xiaozhou said: "I think it's better to forget it. I have worked so hard to earn so much money in a month. Don't let me eat you until liberation. I just calculated the cost and there is still room for compression. Some raw materials are obviously overpriced."
, the adjustment will be made next month, and the profit will be higher."
Xie Qiao looked amazed: "Brother Xiaochuan, aren't you a biology student? Why are you so good at settling accounts?"
“I accompanied Qianxi to pursue a double major in financial management.”
"Hey, you two are so scary."
Qin Chuan still didn't want to give up and continued: "No matter what, I still want to treat you to a meal tonight, just the four of us. From now on, I, Qin Chuan, can make money."
Zhou Chen said: "I don't have any objection anyway. Donglaishun is fine, and the food stalls are fine too."
"Since you, the rich second generation, don't care, let's eat at the food stalls." Qin Chuan said cheerfully.
"let's go."
"let's go."
On the way, Qin Chuan suddenly asked: "Qiao Qiao, I just heard you say that Zhou Chen spent 180,000 yuan to buy clothes for Wang Ying?"
Xie Qiao nodded vigorously: "Yes, a suit of clothes and cosmetics costs 186,000. You don't know. When Qian Xi and Xu Lin saw it, we were all frightened."
Qin Chuan exclaimed: "The clothes and cosmetics cost more than 180,000 yuan. Isn't this too dark?"
"You don't know, that's an international famous brand, Hermès."
"I don't care if it's Hermès or Adonkey, Zhou Chen, I think your brain has been kicked by a donkey. With more than 180,000 yuan, if you invest in me, I can even open a pancake shop for you. I really don't have it."
I’ve seen someone as prodigal as you, so the cost of getting a girlfriend is too high, isn’t your second grandfather pampering you so much?”
"Get out of here, you know what the heck."
Zhou Chen cursed angrily and snorted coldly: "The money I spent to buy things for Wang Ying was all earned by myself. It has nothing to do with my second grandfather. You think you are the only one who can start a business and make money, but I don't."
meeting?"
"The money you earned yourself?"
Qin Chuan and the other three were stunned. They had always thought that Zhou Chen's money belonged to his second grandfather.
Qin Chuan even asked impatiently: "Are you also starting a business? Are you abroad? Why haven't I heard you mention it? It costs so much to buy clothes and cosmetics. It seems that you have made a lot of money. What's wrong?
Please teach me the ropes."
Zhou Chen said calmly: "Can you trade stocks?"
"Stock trading?"
Qin Chuan shook his head repeatedly: "I don't believe this thing. Is it really so profitable that you don't even think of it as money?"
"Look at people, I have made a lot of money, but there are more people who have lost everything, so just listen to this thing and don't touch it."
Qin Chuan patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, because we don't have the capital to speculate in stocks."
"Stock trading is indeed not a good thing, Kawako, don't pay attention to what I just said. In fact, I think your pancake stall business is still good. If you do well in the future, you may not be able to make more money. I think you are
Those who have a talent for doing business.”
"Really? Zhou Chen, are you so optimistic about me? Then you can invest more in me, I will work hard, and then go out to open a new store, and we will make progress together. I don't want more, just the number of your girlfriend's outfit.
"
"Get out of here, get away from me."
Listening to the playful conversation between Qin Chuan and Zhou Chen, He Xiaozhou remained silent.
Zhou Chen also heard from Xiao Qianxi about the Hermès purchase for Wang Ying. He still remembers Xiao Qianxi's envious and longing eyes at that time. He really felt guilty at that time because his conditions were too
If it's bad, we can't give Xiao Qianxi those luxuries at all.
Zhou Chen hugged He Xiaozhou and asked, "What are you thinking about? Don't say a word."
"Nothing, I'm thinking about what to eat later." He Xiaozhou hurriedly shook off the messy thoughts in his mind.
"Xiao Zhou, you are a biology major. Have you ever considered studying abroad? Stanford University's biology majors also have many top-ranked ones in the world. I know your grades are good. If you have the idea of studying abroad, I can help.
I'm busy, I still know some people at Stanford University."
Zhou Chen said to He Xiaozhou in a serious tone.
In the plot, the ending of He Xiaozhou and Xiao Qianxi is very bad. He Xiaozhou is a very good person and he is willing to help He Xiaozhou. If He Xiaozhou can have a different experience, I wonder if the ending of him and Xiao Qianxi will change.
.
"Study abroad at Stanford?"
He Xiaozhou was shocked by Zhou Chen's proposal, but he admitted that he was moved.
That was Stanford University, one of the top prestigious universities in the world. For someone like him who studies hard and is dedicated to improvement, this was a great temptation.
Xie Qiao asked excitedly: "Zhou Chen, can you really help Brother Xiaochuan go to Stanford to study abroad?"
"Of course, if he can't, why should I bring it up? His grades are already good. If I help bridge the gap, it shouldn't be a big problem. If you don't want to separate from Qianxi, I can also think of a way to get her too.
go."
"Brother Xiaochuan, this is a great thing."
Qin Chuan also said: "Xiao Zhou, this is indeed a good thing. If you go out to study, it will be different when you come back."
He Xiaozhou was very excited when he heard that Zhou Chen could get Xiao Qianxi to study abroad, but he thought about it for a while and shook his head.
"Forget it, I'm only a sophomore in college now, so I don't think about this, not to mention that my mother can't live without someone."
Zhou Chen didn't try to persuade him anymore, but just patted him: "Okay, it's really not in a hurry now. You can think about it slowly. If you want to study abroad, going to Stanford University is better than going to other places. At least
I can take care of you."
He Xiaozhou said gratefully: "If Qianxi and I have the idea of studying abroad, we will definitely ask you for help."
If it was just him, he would be embarrassed to trouble Zhou Chen, but if he could be with Xiao Qianxi, he would be willing to take on Zhou Chen's favor.
