Financial freedom starts from graduation

Chapter 219 City Walk with Sister Qingkui (asking for monthly tickets)

After taking a shower, Zhou Wang walked out of the bathroom. Although he was very sleepy, he did not plan to continue sleeping in the master bedroom. After all, this place was covered with all kinds of secretions. Even if some of them were his own...

But Zhou Wang still felt disgusted.

He thought about it and went back to the first floor, planning to find an empty guest room to sleep in.

Just passing by the guest room where he had messed around with Endme for a while, Zhou Wang seemed to remember something. He re-entered the room, picked up some broken pieces of cloth on the ground, and cleaned it up simply.

He couldn't take care of the bed, after all, it was soaked, but he could still deal with Ji Xiaoxi's personal belongings.

Ji Xiaoxi is completely different from Wang Xiaoxiao, so her privacy still needs to be properly protected.

Zhou Wang couldn't help but stare at the piece of cotton cloth that he had crumpled in his hands, and he was a little absent-minded.

If that’s the case, then isn’t Ji Xiaoxi in a vacuum state at this moment?
……

Hangzhou, Tianju Yinhe Mansion.

As a high-rise villa community delivered in 19, it is located in the core area of ​​Xiaoshan District. The average house price is about 5 yuan, and the house types range from 89 square meters to 155 square meters. It is a typical middle-class community.

At six in the morning, in the dim sky, a red Porsche Cayenne slowly stopped by the roadside. Just as Chen He was about to speak, Ji Xiaoxi behind him said, "Don't... don't stop here, drive into the underground parking lot."

Chen He opened his mouth. Although he was surprised, since his girlfriend asked him to do so, he nodded obediently and started the car again.

After the car drove into the underground garage and arrived at the elevator entrance of the apartment building where Ji Xiaoxi lived, Ji Xiaoxi sat up with some difficulty and wanted to open the car door and get out.

Chen He glanced at Ji Xiaoxi's weird posture in the rearview mirror, and finally couldn't help turning around and asking, "Can you walk? You really don't need me to take you upstairs?"

Ji Xiaoxi's body trembled obviously, and she turned her face away reflexively, clamped her legs together, and said in a trembling voice: "Don't... don't look at me!"

"Xiaoxi, what's wrong with you?"

Chen He couldn't help it any longer and asked, "Why do I feel like you've been acting weird since... since you went to the bathroom? You wouldn't let me touch you, and you insisted on sitting in the back seat by yourself, and you wouldn't even let me look at you!"

"I, I'm fine. I just vomited in the bathroom. I smell a little bad. I must be very ugly now..."

Ji Xiaoxi explained in a low voice, a little flustered.

"But I won't dislike you!"

Chen He, who had long been suspicious, still asked tentatively: "You...you didn't meet anyone else when you were in the bathroom, right?"

"No, how could there be someone else in the bathroom... Why are you asking me this?"

Ji Xiaoxi's heart tightened and she asked back in a puzzled manner.

"Nothing, I just feel like you're weird."

Chen He, feeling somewhat guilty, gave an awkward smile.

Ji Xiaoxi didn't say anything else. She opened the car door and got out. She didn't turn around and wave to Chen He as usual. She just crouched down and ran into the elevator with her head down.

Chen He looked at the disappearing Ji Xiaoxi, feeling mixed emotions.

During those ten minutes...what on earth happened?
They won't kiss, right?

Chen He thought of Ji Xiaoxi's messy makeup and faded lips. His face suddenly changed and his breathing stopped for a moment.

But then he thought it was impossible. Not to mention that Ji Xiaoxi was not such a casual person, with her severe mysophobia, she would never accept intimate behavior without washing...

Thinking of this, Chen He calmed down again, but he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

His knuckles turned white from gripping the steering wheel, but he didn't forget his work. He took out his phone and took a look. Seeing that Zhou Wang hadn't approved his friend request, he thought for a moment and edited a verification message and sent it over:
"Hahaha, Brother Zhou, did you forget to click "Agree" (silly smile)"

After exiting the application interface, he turned around and saw an unread message from last night.

Sister Yan: "I was very satisfied last time. I'll wait for you at the same place at nine o'clock tomorrow night~"

How come there is still such a great demand when you are over fifty years old!
It's only been a few days!
Chen He felt disgusted, but he quickly sent back an emoticon and typed:
"Sorry, honey, I just saw...Um, let me confirm, do you want to buy the wolf tooth one next?"

……

Click!

Ji Xiaoxi gently opened the door, and after making sure that the living room was quiet, she took off her high heels, held them in her hands, and tiptoed in.

Only after returning to her bedroom and closing the door did Ji Xiaoxi finally relax completely.

She was just about to take off her long skirt and free her body from the stickiness she had felt all the way when she heard a noise outside.

Ji Xiaoxi had no time to complain that it was summer vacation but her mother still got up so early. She just kicked her high heels under the bed, rolled onto the bed, and then wrapped herself tightly with the quilt.

Just after doing all this, the door was gently pushed open and Ji Xiaoxi's mother walked in.

Seeing that her daughter was still "sleeping soundly", Ji Xiaoxi's mother was about to turn around and leave, but then she frowned and came to the bedside.

Ji Xiaoxi's heart was about to beat in her throat. Fortunately, Ji Xiaoxi's mother did not do anything else, but just shook her head helplessly:
"This kid, the quilt is covered upside down... huh? Why is there still a strange smell?"

Ji Xiaoxi's mother walked to the window, opened it a little, and then walked out.

It was not until the door was gently closed again that Ji Xiaoxi began to breathe deeply.

But then she became extremely distressed, because her mother had already gotten up, which meant that she couldn't go take a shower right away, unless she waited for her mother to go out to buy groceries, but she didn't know how long that would take...

Ji Xiaoxi lifted the quilt, tore off her skirt at random, and then just lay on the bed in a daze.

The first rays of light in the morning shine through the window and fall on the girl's fair body full of youthful texture. In the mixture of mottled spots and shadows, it looks like a work of art.

Throughout the journey, even though they were in the car the whole time and even though the person she was facing was her boyfriend, Ji Xiaoxi could not hide the shame and discomfort in her heart.

When has she ever gone out without wearing anything underneath?

Twenty years of education made it impossible for her to accept such behavior, but she could not deny that amidst her tension and anxiety, there was actually a hint of inexplicable excitement in her heart.

It's like piercing a cage, and there's a sense of pleasure in being able to breathe freely in the filth.

What she experienced today was more than just this...

Ji Xiaoxi looked down and saw some bruises still on her body, as well as some sparse marks of knots.

She remembered the indulgence in confusion, the almost suffocating first kiss, and the heat and roughness of Zhou Wang's palms.

It’s not that she doesn’t understand the relationship between men and women, but she has always thought that she is indifferent to that kind of thing.

She should also be disgusted by this unexpected intimacy. She felt sick just thinking about how many bacteria and fungi were mixed in it, but she didn't understand why she couldn't resist.

Even in front of Zhou Wang, she couldn't control herself.

Intense shame once again engulfed Ji Xiaoxi, whose cheeks were flushed, and her tears fell uncontrollably.

But when their fingers touched accidentally, Ji Xiaoxi instinctively let out a low moan.

She was startled by herself and quickly covered her mouth.

Confusion, bewilderment, and a trace of untraceable desire lingered in the girl's radiant eyes, causing her to curl up and hug herself tightly...

……

When Zhou Wang woke up in a guest room at Room 9 in Yanyu Village, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

The last time I got up at this time was the day my senior left.

The shadow of Jiang Mo popped up in Zhou Wang's mind, making him a little dazed...

It's quite strange. My senior sister hasn't been away for many days, but it feels like I haven't seen her for a long time.

Zhou Wang took out his cell phone and turned on the screen. As expected, there were still a lot of unread messages in WeChat.

WeChat is okay, but the text messages on my old number from all kinds of people are really massive.

Regarding last night’s Wuyou Night, there are still three related topics on the hot search list, two of which are related to Zhou Wang.

It has been fermenting until now. Among those who know him, even those who don’t pay attention to this circle have basically heard about it. After all, there are various groups spreading it...

After picking out some important contacts and replying to them roughly, Zhou Wang scrolled down and found Jiang Mo's "Good morning" for today.

In the photo, she turned her head away a little embarrassedly, with the words "Good morning, hubby" written on her smooth collarbone with lipstick.

She used a different part of her body to send greetings every day, until her whole body was filled with thoughts of Zhou Wang...

Such a "perverted" way of expressing love must have come from Zhou's mind, and Jiang Mo could not have thought of it.

After staring at the photo for a while, Zhou Wang felt that Jiang Mo was not so far away anymore, so he typed a reply: "Senior, next time you can get a closer angle... By the way, have you tried the old Beidu bean juice? I'm curious, is it unpalatable?"

Zhou Wang, who had already woken up, put away his phone, jumped out of bed and opened the curtains. The sky was cloudy and the sun was not so scorching, so it was a very suitable weather for traveling.

After washing up and drying his hair, Zhou Wang surprisingly changed into clean clothes which must have been quietly brought to him by Xiao An. He then walked to a full-length mirror and looked at himself.

Wearing a brand new Hermès casual outfit and a pair of low-top sneakers, Zhou Wang nodded with satisfaction. Not bad, the youthful vibe is back...

After a long battle at midnight, I return home still a young man.

Walking out of the room, the entire corridor was filled with a faint fragrance, indicating that the entire house had been cleaned. When he came to the side hall, Zhou Wang stopped in surprise.

Under the swaying light and shadow in the side hall, there was a beautiful woman in a black dress sitting on a mahogany armchair. Her hair was tied up, which was rare, and she wore sparkling earrings on both sides of her ears. The style of dress was different from her usual style, which made Zhou Wang's eyes light up.

Seeing Zhou Wang appear, the woman put down the book in her hand, raised her head and smiled slightly: "Do you like this dress?"

"So it was you, Qingkui, who bought it. I was wondering how Xiao An could grasp my size so accurately..."

Zhou Wang smiled suddenly when he heard this.

"I picked it out with Wenxi. Hermès Shanghai Henglong store held a special event for you, boss. Xixi and I went to look around and picked out about five or six sets. The manager said that if you don't like it, you can return it at any time."

Jiang Qingkui stood up and explained with a chuckle.

"When did you arrive? Didn't Sissi come back with you?"

Zhou Wang walked over, without any hesitation, picked up Jiang Qingkui's teacup and took a sip, while asking.

Jiang Qingkui didn't care, he just walked forward and helped Zhou Wang straighten his collar, "I'll be there at noon. As for Wen Xi, she's still there sorting out the financial reports of the two companies you asked for. Although she has found a professional accountant to help, it will probably take some time."

"Well, what about Xiao An?"

"After handing over the affairs here to me, she went back to the Four Seasons Hotel to resign. If things go well, she should be able to come back to accompany you tonight..."

"Watch your wording. She came back to work, so why did it become accompanying me?"

Zhou Wang coughed lightly, and then caught sight of Jiang Qingkui's slightly raised mouth corners. He immediately said "Damn" in his heart, Qingkui is not kind, she is trying to trick me again...

From this question and answer, with Jiang Qingkui's intelligence, it was clear to him that there was probably something unclean going on between Xiao An and himself.

"I will ask the law firm to do a background check on Xiao An and I will review it for you later."

As if he had confirmed something, Jiang Qingkui made a more serious suggestion.

"You decide..." Zhou Wang could only wave his hand. Then he remembered something, "By the way, are there any other guests?"

"You are talking about those girls who have no talent, right?"

Jiang Qingkui tilted his head at this time, "There are currently two people left. One seems to be still asleep, and the other is waiting for you. What do you think we should do with them?"

After Jiang Qingkui said this, Zhou Wang immediately understood that the person waiting for her was most likely Hua Suisui, and the one who was still sleeping could only be Wang Xiaoxiao.

Zhou Wang fell into a brief dilemma.

He was a little full this morning and didn't have much energy to flirt with Hua Suisui.

At this time, Jiang Qingkui smiled and suggested: "Do you need me to help you?"

Zhou Wang originally wanted to forget it, but then he changed his mind and realized that as a secretary who would be with him day and night and would be involved in his life and career to a great extent, there was really nothing to hide in front of her.

Besides, she already knew that he had more than one girlfriend, so it didn't matter...

So Zhou Wang summarized the current situation in very brief words:

"Well... I've slept with the one I was sleeping with, but the one I was waiting for hasn't come yet. But the one I was sleeping with has no feelings, but the one I was waiting for has some meaning."

Jiang Qingkui was stunned for a moment, then she understood immediately. She nodded, got up and left.

Zhou Wang leaned back in his chair, sipping the fragrant tea that Jiang Qingkui had left behind, and picked up the book "Public Welfare to the Right, Business to the Left" that she was reading. He just felt that he didn't need to worry about such things...

It's fucking awesome.

About twenty minutes later, Jiang Qingkui came back and nodded to Zhou Wang:
"It's all arranged."

"Okay, let's go, accompany me for a walk..." Zhou Wang did not ask for details. He believed that Jiang Qingkui could grasp the right balance. He just closed the book in his hand, stretched and stood up.

Since arriving in Hangzhou, a series of things have been happening intensively, and Zhou Wang is really a little tired.

Now that the "Night of No Good" is over, he can finally take a break.

Since arriving in Hangzhou, I haven’t properly toured the city, so now is the perfect time.

But when he was halfway through his words, looking at Jiang Qingkui who was smiling in silence, Zhou Wang suddenly realized that Jiang Qingkui had actually predicted this, as could be seen from her own outfit and the clothes she had prepared for him.

Sister Qingkui, you’re so awesome!

……

At 4:30 in the afternoon, under the slanting sunlight, Zhou Wang, wearing sunglasses, and Jiang Qingkui, also wearing sunglasses, appeared on the street near Hangzhou City Building Shopping Mall.

In fact, there was no specific destination. It was just Jiang Qingkui's suggestion that the two of them come to Wulin business district, which is currently the most prosperous business district in Hangzhou, and start a city walk from here.

Walking on the busy streets, the two of them walking side by side undoubtedly attracted a lot of attention. Jiang Qingkui, who was only wearing flat shoes, was only half a head shorter than Zhou Wang. Add to that her cool and mature temperament, and her plump figure outlined by the slim long skirt...

Not to mention the passers-by, even Zhou Wang couldn't help but look at her twice more.

Even in Hangzhou, where there are so many beautiful women, Jiang Qingkui can beat ten of them.

(Reference picture of Jiang Qingkui's outfit today)

"It's a bit hot, I'll sweat, don't you want to?"

When Zhou Wang looked at him again and again, Jiang Qingkui smiled and said.

Zhou Wang's attempt to hold her green hand froze. After a pause, Zhou Wang asked in confusion:

"Qingkui, have you been reading a lot of psychology books recently? Why do I feel like you have learned the art of mind reading today..."

"The courses you provided me were too comprehensive. I haven't digested them all yet, but I have benefited a lot."

Jiang Qingkui responded with a smile.

It seems that the system is too weird, although we cannot deny Jiang Qingkui's extremely strong learning ability...

After all, Xu Wenxi, who started earlier than her, still looks silly now.

"Boss, are you worried?"

"Yeah, but we'll talk later. Let's go shopping first."

Zhou Wang nodded, and Jiang Qingkui didn't ask any more questions.

There is no guide, but there is no need for one, as there are signposts everywhere.

Walking from Zhanlan West Road to Wulin Square, Jiang Qingkui pointed at the Eight Girls Fountain and said with a smile, "I heard that this is a musical fountain. Unfortunately, it's daytime now, so we probably won't be able to see the light show."

"How about I show you something else?"

Zhou Wang also had a sudden inspiration, looked around, and then smiled.

"Okay."

Jiang Qingkui was stunned for a moment, then nodded and chuckled, "Boss, if your performance can impress me, I can meet one of your requests, but it can't be too much."

Sister Qingkui, you are so skilled now!

Zhou Wang instantly perked up and said with a mysterious smile: "Let me perform a magic trick for you."

"Oh?"

Jiang Qingkui smiled cooperatively, but she didn't have much expectation in her heart. In her opinion, what Zhou Wang was going to perform would probably be some small magic trick he learned from a short video, such as making a flower to hide something or something like that.

"Qingkui, do you believe that someone can predict the future?"

"Of course I don't believe it."

Seeing Zhou Wang start to act like a good audience, Jiang Qingkui also started to act like a qualified audience member and shook his head, saying, "This is not scientific."

"If I tell you that I have predicted the future, you will definitely not believe it, right?"

"Ah."

"Okay, then let me confirm with you first. It was your suggestion to come to Wulin Business District. I didn't hint at you or specify anything, right?"

"Yes."

"And the fact that we walked this way just now was also random, right?"

"Correct."

"Then if I tell you that I have prepared a small gift for you here in advance, would you believe it?"

"what gift?"

Zhou Wang just smiled, then stretched out his hand and grabbed something in the air, then snapped his fingers, "Okay, I have traveled back from time and space in that second, and the gift has been placed."

"where is it?"

Jiang Qingkui stared at Zhou Wang curiously, as if wanting to see where he was going to take out the so-called gift from.

"Of course not with me. I told you that the gift is placed here, but you need to go and check it yourself."

As he spoke, Zhou Wang pointed in the direction of the fountain.

"fountain?"

After Zhou Wang nodded, Jiang Qingkui was truly surprised.

Because the two of them were more than ten meters away from the fountain at the moment, and when they came, Zhou Wang did not get close to the fountain.

With suspicion, Jiang Qingkui came to the fountain under Zhou Wang's guidance.

"Right at this position, you put your hand in, and I can't move, otherwise it will look too fake." Zhou Wang said with a smile.

Jiang Qingkui hesitated for a moment, but couldn't suppress her curiosity. She squatted down and put her white arms into the pool.

The water in the outer circle of the pool was very shallow, and Jiang Qingkui's hands were long enough to quickly reach the bottom of the pool. After a brief exploration, Jiang Qingkui looked up at Zhou Wang in astonishment, and then she withdrew her hand.

In the sight, what Jiang Qingkui was holding in her hand was a hairpin with simple and exquisite workmanship. The ebony material was very high-end and very suitable for Jiang Qingkui's outfit today.

What attracted Jiang Qingkui's attention the most was the end of the hairpin, which was actually inlaid with a piece of black jade. The texture was soft and round, and it was obvious that it was very expensive.

Zhou Wang was not sure what kind of gem it was, but he knew that this wooden hairpin that had been soaked in water for who knows how long must be worth a lot of money, because in Zhou Wang's field of vision, it emitted a faint colorful light.

What satisfied Zhou Wang the most was that, although anything would do, as long as he could complete this unreasonable magic, it would be enough to shock Jiang Qingkui for the whole day, but the treasure hidden here was actually a hairpin that Jiang Qingkui could just use, so...

The effect is really great.

I am indeed the real lucky guy of Hangzhou.

"How did you do this?"

Sure enough, Jiang Qingkui stood up with an incredible expression on his face.

"secret."

Zhou Wang just smiled.

Jiang Qingkui didn't seem to really want to know the process. After all, the charm of magic lies in its unfathomable magic.

Anyway, Jiang Qingkui was really surprised at this moment.

"Let's go, next stop."

Zhou Wang turned around calmly, leaving only a handsome back to Jiang Qingkui, who was still in shock.

……

From Wulin Square, we walked all the way to the pier of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. Since we are already here, of course we have to take a boat trip on the river.

There was no need to squeeze into the public boat that cost 3 yuan per person. Jiang Qingkui found a tourist agency nearby and took the two of them directly to a pier for yacht custody and consignment.

At first, Zhou Wang was somewhat tempted, but after thinking about it, he realized that buying an open party boat that could accommodate about ten people would cost more than three million yuan, and the annual custody and berth fees would cost another three or four hundred thousand yuan, so it didn't seem necessary.

The main reason was that the Grand Canal was not attractive enough to him, and he could not live in Hangzhou for a long time...

Well, mainly because he is relatively “poor” now, Zhou Wang still cherishes the cash he has.

Then rent it!

A small luxury yacht, equipped with self-service drinks, fruits and some delicious food, the basic price is 5888 for one and a half hours, and after that it will be charged at 800 per hour.

It wasn't too expensive, and after a brief negotiation they agreed on a discount of 5500, and the two of them got on board.

Grabbing a bottle of beer, Zhou Wang and Jiang Qingkui came to the lounge chair in front of the yacht, and just enjoyed the slightly fishy river breeze as they let the yacht slowly pass through the arch bridge, passing by the Yintai Department Store and Wulin No. 1 along the coast, and drifted northward.

Jiang Qingkui had hardly had a rest since she started working. At this moment, she was also enjoying this rare leisure time. However, before she could close her eyes, Zhou Wang spoke slowly:

“I want to open a short video account.”

Jiang Qingkui was startled, and then her brain started to work at high speed. She quickly asked thoughtfully:

“Operating personal IP?”

"I guess so. Now that I'm on stage, I might as well make good use of this wave of popularity... I see that many big guys are doing this now, so I might as well learn from them."

Zhou Wang smiled.

Although the influence of Wuyou Night is not small, it is ultimately not as big as the real entertainment industry and is relatively limited. If Zhou Wang really wants to deliberately downplay his presence, he will soon disappear from the public's sight, and not many people will continue to pay attention to him.

“Although it is a double-edged sword, if you grasp the right measure and apply it to business, it can really be very effective.”

Jiang Qingkui nodded. "To be honest, when I wanted to start my own business, I also wanted to take the first step this way."

"Returnee, highly educated, top scorer in liberal arts, Harvard PhD, beautiful woman... these labels are indeed enough to earn you a lot of traffic."

Zhou Wang nodded in approval.

"Boss, do you have any other plans?"

Jiang Qingkui keenly caught something again.

After all, the only industry that completely belongs to Zhou Wang is the Dianwang Club. If he continues to go the route of acquiring shares, it seems that he doesn't need to do all these.

"I want to tinker with something myself. Just buying shares is a bit empty. I'll just give it a try. It doesn't matter if I fail. I'll just treat it as a way to spice up my life."

Zhou Wang laughed, which was considered as an admission.

Jiang Qingkui was speechless for a moment. She wanted to start her own business but was unable to do so, and was even willing to risk everything. However, Zhou Wang's relaxed tone was as if he was saying, "Let's go to the dock to eat some French fries."

Zhou Wang's eyes went blank for a moment.

This idea of ​​his was a spur of the moment, but not entirely.

[Reputation value: 192325 (Rising in fame)]

This is the reputation he regained after the party yesterday.

Compared with his previous "reputation" of around 10,000 points, this is a complete qualitative change, and has made him a celebrity within a certain range.

Moreover, at present, this huge amount of reputation value is still increasing from time to time.

However, reputation value is not the point. The point is that the things Zhou Wang can exchange in the system's mysterious store have suddenly increased.

What attracted his attention was a prop that seemed to be very suitable for his current situation:
