Making a living in Dongguan, her fiery red lips offer me tenderness.

"Sister, are you in Tangxia?"

"Yes, I'm here!"

"Come downstairs, I'm right downstairs, hurry up."

"Ah...you're here again?"

"Stop talking nonsense and get down here."

"Oh, wait a moment, I'll change my clothes."

After waiting for about six or seven minutes, Liu Cuicui came downstairs, holding a mobile phone and wearing a dress. Her eyes were a little blurry, as if she hadn't woken up yet.

Ding Yang opened the car door and got out.

"sister!"

Liu Cuicui was stunned.

"Wow, bro, you've struck it rich! A Mercedes S600."

Ding Yang laughed and said, "What, do I look like a poor person to you?"

"Damn it, you've changed so much in just a few days! Tell me, did you manage to hook up with a rich woman?"

"Can't I borrow someone else's car?"

"I can borrow someone else's car, but I can't borrow your outfit. You're wearing Armani from head to toe."

Suddenly, Liu Cuicui noticed the watch on Ding Yang's wrist.

He immediately took Ding Yang's hand and examined him carefully.

He exclaimed in surprise, "A Rolex Submariner green! My goodness, that costs fifty or sixty thousand a dollar! You must have struck it rich!"

Ding Yang thought to himself, "No wonder they're prostitutes; they know all about luxury goods and can spot them at a glance."

"Hey bro, tell me the truth, have you been dating a rich woman? Otherwise, you wouldn't have gotten rich so quickly."

"Can't I win the lottery?"

"Stop with the nonsense, just tell me, what exactly happened?"

"Sis, get in the car. They said it's too hot here."

Liu Cuicui sat in the passenger seat and closed the car door.

"Sis, I've struck it rich, I'm incredibly rich. Go upstairs right now and pack your things. Come with me. I don't want to see you here anymore. I can't stand it for even a minute."

"Tell me what exactly happened?"

"I left Yantian for Chang'an, where I did odd jobs carrying cement and sand."

"I met a rich woman by chance. Her husband had passed away, and we started dating."

"How old are you?"

"I'm 40."

"What?! You're so old, how could you even bring yourself to do that?"

"Sis, aren't you ashamed to say that?"

"Hehe, yeah, I'm with an old man too, aren't I?"

"Ding Yang, how are you any different from me? Don't laugh at me anymore."

"There's a huge difference. I'm genuinely dating someone; I've met her parents. I'm just looking for a rich girlfriend who's older than me. What's yours? How can these two things be compared?"

"I will marry her and have children with her, and her parents have agreed."

"Damn, are her parents idiots? You're obviously after her money, why would they agree to this?"

"Why would their parents disagree? I sincerely want to be friends with them; there's no deception involved."

"Xiaoyang, tell me everything in detail, from beginning to end. I'll analyze it for you. What's her name? What does she do for a living?"

"Her name is Tan Yan, and she is the president of Tan Sheng Group. Her father is the chairman of the board. The company is very large, a multi-billion-dollar enterprise."

"Wow, she's incredibly wealthy."

"She originally had a younger brother, who died in a car accident a few years ago, leaving no children behind."

"Her husband was a surgeon who suddenly suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, leaving him paralyzed from head to toe. He was bedridden for seven or eight years and passed away this January, leaving no children behind."

"Tan Yan is now the only son in his family. His parents initially wanted to object, but after thinking about it carefully, they realized that he's already so old, where would they find a suitable match?"

"The reason her parents compromised and agreed to our relationship was that they hoped I would have a child with her, since she's already at an age where she can't afford to delay any longer."

"Ding Yang, what are you hesitating for? This is a good thing. If you have a child, their family property will all be yours."

"Hehe, I'm not stupid, of course I agreed."

"After spending this time together, I've realized she truly loves me, and I feel myself liking her more and more. Can you smell the wine?"

"Hmm, it does smell like alcohol."

"When I went back to see my grandparents, she bought my grandfather a case of Moutai liquor and my grandmother a gold bracelet, which cost more than 2 yuan."

"I'll go."

"Xiaoyang, these are all small amounts of money. Aren't there any big expenses? Like buying a car or a house. Don't just spend your time eating, drinking, and having fun with her; you need to build some assets!"

"Hehe, a couple of days ago they bought me an apartment in a high-end residential area near the sea in Nanshan, Shenzhen. It cost more than 2 yuan per square meter, 148 square meters, and cost nearly 400 million yuan. It's registered in only my name, and I paid in full."

"Wow, bro, congratulations! You've struck it rich overnight! Damn, I couldn't afford such an expensive house even if I worked for three lifetimes."

"Sigh, why can't I meet a tycoon like that?"

"Sis, I'm not trying to be mean, but even if you meet a super rich guy while working as a prostitute in a hotel, he'll just play around with you. Who the hell would pay to marry a whore?"

"A rich person is rich, but he's not sick."

"Ugh, you're always finding ways to insult me."

"Sis, I don't mean to scold you, I just want to tell you a fact, and whether you admit it or not?"

"Sigh, I know, that's true. At most, you can treat me to a meal, but you can't offer me anything substantial."

"Sis, if you listen to me, there's still hope for you. If you don't, I don't want to help you anymore."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Sister, you're almost 27. No matter how many clients you take at the hotel, you're only making small money. You won't make a fortune. The hotel takes a large cut, and it's not a long-term solution. Who will want you when you're old and faded?"

"If you really want to get rich, you have to marry into a wealthy family. If you listen to me, you might succeed."

"You tell me, I'll listen to you."

"I've already spoken to Tan Yan. I have a cousin in Tangxia, Dongguan, who works as a clerk in a factory. I'd like you to work at her company. She's already agreed to let you work in the CEO's office."

"Sis, you have a high school diploma. You should go work in the CEO's office first and learn from her. Once you have some work experience, I'll try to get you a department manager position."

"Tan Sheng Group has many department managers and shareholders, plenty of eligible bachelors. With your looks and emotional intelligence, wouldn't it be easy for you to snag a rich sugar daddy?"

"Women get married sooner or later. You can go work at her company, and I'll have her act as a matchmaker for you. With her connections, finding you a multi-millionaire will be a piece of cake."

"Being a prostitute is not a long-term career. You should find a proper job with dignity. When you become a high-earning professional woman, the way you walk will be different, and you will feel more at ease."

"If you stay in this hotel, you'll be 30 in two or three years. It won't be so easy to find a partner then. Rich men won't even consider women over 30. Working as a prostitute here, you won't earn any money, but you'll end up with a bunch of gynecological diseases."

"Ugh, I'll do whatever you say."

"Sister, dancing with a phoenix makes you a magnificent bird; befriending rich people teaches you how to make money; but what can you learn from a bunch of prostitutes? Technical skills?"

"Okay, stop indirectly insulting me. I'll listen to you."

"Alright, let's go upstairs and get our luggage. Let's go home."

"Go home? Which home?"
