Given Jiang Mo’s personality, she would usually be too shy to keep looking at him. He had to admit, it was quite difficult for her.
Thinking about it, Zhou Wang felt a bit restless again, but he knew Jiang Mo must have been very tired, so he refrained from disturbing her dreams.
He held Jiang Mo in his arms like a precious gem for a while, until the clock approached nine. Taking advantage of the moment when Jiang Mo turned over, Zhou Wang gently withdrew his hand.
He kissed her smooth shoulder and neck, got out of bed, and found the brand-new robe Jiang Mo had bought for him in the wardrobe.
Inside the wardrobe, besides the robe, Jiang Mo had bought Zhou Wang quite a few clothes, all with tags still attached, a full row of luxury items...
Zhou Wang was taken aback, as Jiang Mo had silently done these things without ever telling him.
At the end of the carpet, Jiang Mo had also prepared two pairs of LV slippers in advance, same style, with one blue and one white, making them a perfect couple set.
She must have been looking forward to this night for a long time...
Zhou Wang stared at those two pairs of slippers for quite a while, then put on the blue pair and stepped out onto the balcony.
It seemed to have rained last night, as there were still some slippery traces on the ground. However, Zhou Wang and Jiang Mo were evidently unaware, as they were absorbed in each other’s rain...
Taking a deep breath of the fresh air with a hint of moisture, Zhou Wang felt refreshed and pulled out his blindfold to start today’s workout.
Though his body was still a bit tired, with the aid of the equipment, Zhou Wang managed to complete his planned workout.
After removing the blindfold, Zhou Wang poured himself a glass of water and sat down in the recliner on the balcony, finally taking out his phone.
His phone had received quite a few WeChat messages by midnight yesterday. Upon checking, they were all Valentine’s Day greetings—
Su Ranran (voice message): "Brother, Happy Valentine’s Day, even though we just parted yesterday, I miss you already~"
Hua Suisui: "Happy Valentine’s Day, want to watch my live stream? I’ll do a special show for you, teehee..."
Hua Suisui: "Pajama pic.jpg"
Little Yu Duo: "You’re such a jerk, you haven’t talked to me for days. Are you spending today with Ranran?"
Xu Wenqian: "Boss, happy holiday! Thank you for approving my leave. I will return as soon as possible. Let me know if you need anything~"
Shen Yutong: "The other party has withdrawn a message."
Ding Yi: "Zhou Wang, Happy Valentine’s Day!"
...
These were just the messages Zhou Wang cared to check, and in fact, there were many more conversations below, not just with Sun Xining and her twin sister, but also with many different saleswomen, all sending their greetings.
The bolder ones even attached pictures.
But at that moment, Zhou Wang was feeling saintly, his heart unstirred.
He suddenly realized he had entanglements with so many women, the volume and frequency of messages making it even livelier than the New Year...
The road ahead was long, and he still had much to learn and explore!
Feeling the weight of his responsibilities, Zhou Wang worked out fiercely for another five minutes, sensing his body becoming slightly stronger, then finally stopped.
Seeing it was about time, Zhou Wang ordered breakfast and then called Xu Wenqian.
"Boss, you said you spent fifteen million on... a phone number?"
Zhou Wang called Xu Wenqian to have her contact the bank to pay off the foreclosure site balance and then get in touch with the law firm to see how to transfer the number smoothly.
But hearing this, Xu Wenqian was clearly shocked.
She knew her boss was extravagantly wealthy and was accustomed to Zhou Wang’s erratic spending habits, but spending eight figures on a phone number once again shattered her understanding of the world.
"Yes, stop making a fuss, get it done quickly. I’m eager to change my number."
Faced with his assistant, Zhou Wang did not hide his urgency. After Xu Wenqian agreed, he asked, "By the way, when will you be back?"
"Um... I-I might need another one or two days..."
Xu Wenqian stammered in response.
"Alright, hanging up."
Zhou Wang did not probe further. After all, he had asked Jiang Qingkui to monitor the matter and was waiting for her report.
As soon as Zhou Wang ended the call with Xu Wenqian, Jiang Qingkui’s call came right in.
"Mr. Zhou, am I disturbing you?"
"What’s up?"
"Are you at Cui Lake One right now?"
"Yeah, what’s up?"
Zhou Wang was initially surprised that Jiang Qingkui knew about Cui Lake One, but immediately realized it didn’t matter, given Jiang Qingkui’s special role and significant involvement in his life; there was nothing to hide...
"When it’s convenient, could you come back? There’s something that requires your personal handling..."
Hearing Jiang Qingkui’s explanation, Zhou Wang paused.
"Alright, I’ll be back in a bit."
He nodded and agreed before hanging up the phone.
Looking back and seeing no movement in the bedroom, Zhou Wang focused his mind on the system interface.
In the middle of the night, the system had sent multiple notifications.
Of course, the content of the notifications was always the same.
"[Binding object Jiang Mo’s mental desires have been satisfied, Desire Consumption Gold has been granted.]"
The amount this time was no longer the first insulting "1888," with each alert bringing in thousands, if not tens of thousands, accumulating to two or three hundred thousand by morning.
This gave Zhou Wang the glimpse of another path to wealth...
