Chapter 158: Chapter 124: Picking Up Ten Million for Nothing_3 Chapter 158: Chapter 124: Picking Up Ten Million for Nothing_3 The room was really too big, Zhou Wang felt that living alone in such a house was kind of creepy, so it was just the right time for Xu Wenqian to move in and add some life to it.
“Ah, well…”
Xu Wenqian was clearly hesitant, “I, I’ll think about it…”
“No need to think, you’ll have plenty to keep you busy later on. Living here will make it easier for me to exploit you whenever.”
Zhou Wang laughed.
“Oh, okay.”
Xu Wenqian blushed as she agreed.
“And one last question, consider it an entry interview… Qianqian, what’s your biggest wish?”
Thinking about the reward mechanism, Zhou Wang casually asked.
The system had already made it clear that it must be the person’s truest wish, so Zhou Wang skipped any other banter and got straight to the point.
“My wish?”
Xu Wenqian looked a little confused.
“Yeah, like the thing you most long for in your heart, just talk freely, don’t overthink it.”
“I don’t seem to have any special wishes. If I must say, it would probably be… to achieve success through my own efforts. I really like the feeling of climbing upward step by step.”
“Be more specific, like what would count as success?”
Zhou Wang glanced at the system that showed no reaction and asked further.
“Emmm… I don’t really know, but if I had to measure it, earning a lot of money would do, like ten million or something.”
Xu Wenqian thought for a moment and laughed.
Ding!

[The host received cash, ten million]
Following this was a bank notification message.
“CMB: Your account ending in 1111 received RMB 10,000,000 on July 23 at 09:14.”
Everything happened so fast, Zhou Wang hadn’t even reacted before he suddenly had an extra ten million in cash.
Whoa!
Zhou Wang glanced at his phone, feeling a sudden burst of happiness, and at the same time a bit regretful that Xu Wenqian, this girl, couldn’t even just dream a little bolder?
If you had directly said you wanted a billion, wouldn’t that be great!
But this was normal, right, an ordinary person wouldn’t wish for something too outrageous. Xu Wenqian daring to think of making ten million through her own efforts was already pretty good.
And fortunately, Xu Wenqian had a bit of career ambition. If it were other women, they’d probably just wish to get beauty enhancements or something, Zhou Wang would be at a loss.
Getting ten million for nothing, he should be satisfied.
Looking at his little assistant now, Zhou Wang was even more pleased.
Xu Wenqian, who was not very confident in herself, sensed some dangerous signals from Zhou Wang’s heated gaze and got a bit flustered.
Could it be that Mr. Zhou… really wanted more with her?
Even now, after sobering up, she realized she wasn’t so opposed to Zhou Wang, but then… certain parts were still slightly aching, she couldn’t handle it!
“Then, then Mr. Zhou, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go handle my resignation first.”
Feeling guilty, Xu Wenqian wanted to make her escape.
“Go ahead… by the way, are you sure there won’t be any trouble from your boyfriend’s side?”
At this point, Zhou Wang didn’t have too many thoughts, he was still feeling weak himself; he just asked another question before Xu Wenqian left.
“There shouldn’t be, Mr. Zhou, don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.”
Watching Xu Wenqian’s departing figure, Zhou Wang shook his head.
Such matters were hard to say, especially since last night, Xu Wenqian had severely provoked Cheng Zhe.
A normal man would probably go crazy…
But since Xu Wenqian didn’t bring it up, Zhou Wang wouldn’t ask proactively either.
…
After seeing off Xu Wenqian, Zhou Wang asked Chen Mei to call someone up to clean.
The scenes they had gone through the whole night were quite a few, which would take some effort to tidy up.
But that was no concern of Zhou Wang’s; he just glanced at the already unlocked [Universal Resume].
With only a basic resume, he couldn’t add or change anything, but he discovered that some of the values on it would automatically change in real-time.
For example, the “Loyalty” section, which was at 80 points when the resume was generated, had increased by one point in a short while, becoming 81.
This meant that as long as Zhou Wang had this resume, he could track Xu Wenqian’s psychological changes and capability transformations in real-time.
In that case, it was really convenient for an employer.
Moreover, “Xu Wenqian’s New Hire Gift Package,” while the funds for car purchases needed to be deposited into the company account post-registration, he could now claim other items like clothes and watches from stores at any time.
Zhou Wang had decided that he should not give all these gifts to Xu Wenqian at once; she might not be able to handle it.
Used properly, this gift pack could even increase Xu Wenqian’s Loyalty Value.
“Is my thinking becoming too capitalist…”
Constructing a plan based on understanding people’s hearts made Zhou Wang question himself.
Shaking his head, while instructing Chen Mei to fetch those items from the store, Zhou Wang also sent the training course link to Xu Wenqian.
Having finished these tasks, Zhou Wang went to a clean guest room to catch up on sleep.
Before drifting off, Zhou Wang sent Jiang Mo a message, “I’ll pick you up for dinner tonight.”
Normally, after having claimed a girl’s innocence, more time should be spent together, but not only did Zhou Wang fail to accompany her, he barely contacted Jiang Mo these past two days.
Jiang Mo’s cool nature seemed like it hadn’t changed, if Zhou Wang didn’t initiate contact, she quietly went about her own, only sending him reports as per his requests in a format like—
“Master, I’ve arrived at the library.”
“Master, I’m going to meet Professor Wang, will be home a bit late.”
“Master…”
Among these scattered messages resembling homework, Zhou Wang’s responses were few and far between.
Amidst these standardized messages, there was one that stood out.
It was a photo she took of a jacaranda flower blooming by the roadside and sent to Zhou Wang.
But it was just one photo, Jiang Mo said nothing else, nor did she use any emojis; it felt less like sharing and more like Jiang Mo had accidentally clicked a wrong button.
Yet, Zhou Wang couldn’t help but wonder, is this a way she expresses longing or loneliness?
Scanning through the chat history, dog-man Zhou Wang finally felt a twinge of guilt, pondered for a moment, and added another message:
“Wear white stockings today.”
