The sun was high in the sky!
Sunlight streamed through the French windows, falling on Su Chen's face.
Feeling the warmth on his face, Su Chen groggily opened his eyes, saw the bright sunshine outside, and lazily stretched.
"Hmm~ Waking up naturally is so comfortable."
After lingering in bed for a while, Su Chen reluctantly got out of bed.
He had originally wanted to stay in bed a little longer, but the intermittent hunger pangs in his stomach wouldn't let him get away.
After a quick shower, he prepared to change his clothes and go out for dinner, since the refrigerator was empty and he couldn't cook.
"Looks like I'll have to hire a professional housekeeper."
As for cleaning, Su Chen had heard Chen Mengyan mention before that her house had a professional cleaning team that could come and clean whenever needed…
Thinking of this, Su Chen's mind conjured up Chen Mengyan's slender, fruit-laden figure.
It's impossible for Su Chen to say he had absolutely no feelings for Chen Mengyan; after all, he's a normal man!
Who doesn't like beautiful women?
Especially someone like Chen Mengyan, who has both a great figure and stunning looks.
Given Chen Mengyan's blatant hints before, how could Su Chen not understand?
Even if he hadn't eaten pork… he'd at least seen a pig run!
If Su Chen dared to speak up today, he believed Chen Mengyan would be in his bed tonight.
But Su Chen ultimately suppressed his inner turmoil.
Regarding this… Su Chen was both expectant and afraid. After all, Su Chen was already 23… and still a pure virgin!
"Sigh!" With a slight sigh, Su
Chen stopped thinking about it and let things take their course. Looking at the few cheap clothes in his walk-in closet, a bitter smile crossed Su Chen's face. The oldest item in the closet had been with him for over four years, bought online when he first arrived in Shanghai.
Even the newest piece of clothing was bought a year ago.
He found a relatively clean outfit to put on and stood in front of the mirror to look at himself.
"Not bad!" Su Chen was the kind of person whose looks grew on you; he wasn't particularly handsome, just above average.
"System!"
[Host: Su Chen]
[Elementary God of Wealth: 2020/1 million]
[Wealth: 90086 yuan (pending withdrawal)]
Su Chen checked; the system's experience points had increased by 2020. Two thousand were from last night's dinner expenses, and the remaining 20 was for parking.
His wealth had also accumulated to 90,000 after a day, which, combined with his savings, amounted to just over 200,000.
With a thought, he withdrew the 90,000 from the system.
The next second, his phone beeped with a notification of the deposit.
He glanced at it casually, put his phone in his pocket, grabbed his keys, and went out.
The IFC Mall wasn't far from Seaview One; both were in the Lujiazui business district.
Su Chen didn't go to any Gucci or Hermes stores; he had absolutely no interest in these luxury brands.
Definitely a waste of money.
After casually browsing the first floor, they found a decent-looking men's clothing store – Brunello Cucinelli.
Su Chen didn't recognize it after a couple of glances and swaggered inside.
The store looked quite large, with six sales assistants, but there weren't many customers; including Su Chen, there were only three.
The sales assistants at the counter glanced at Su Chen, and one of the older ones said, "Xiao Li, you've only been working here for two days. Why don't you go and serve that young man, give him some practice."
Xiao Li was taken aback. She'd been working there for almost a week, and the store usually wasn't very busy; the other staff mostly took over.
They were implying that since she was new, she didn't know much and might offend a customer!
Unexpectedly, the sun had risen in the west; the store manager had proactively assigned her to serve a customer.
Despite her thoughts, Xiao Li excitedly replied, "Okay, manager,"
and quickly walked towards Su Chen.
After Xiao Li left, a sales assistant asked, puzzled, "Manager, why did you let Xiao Li handle the customer service?"
The female manager smiled and said, "What? Do you think any young man could afford that? Look at what he's wearing... it's all cheap stuff, probably only worth two or three hundred yuan at most."
She paused, then continued, "Did you notice? That young man had no accessories, his hair was messy, and his skin was a bit dark, but he had a good physique, which means he works outdoors!"
"I bet they're either delivery drivers or construction workers."
Hearing the female store manager's analysis, everyone looked on with an "I see" expression.
Meanwhile, Su Chen had just spotted a few nice polo shirts when a young sales assistant rushed towards him.
"Hello sir~ Welcome to BC! I'm sales assistant Xiao Li, it's a pleasure to serve you!" she said, her voice tinged with nervousness.
Su Chen smiled faintly.
"Hello, these clothes look pretty good. Could you put them together as a set for me so I can try them on?" Su Chen pointed to a few shirts that he liked.
"Ah~" Xiao Li was surprised by Su Chen's words.
"What? Is there a problem?" Su Chen asked, raising an eyebrow slightly.
Hearing Su Chen's words, Xiao Li quickly waved her hand. "No, no problem, sir, please have a seat, I'll put together a set for you right away!"
After taking Su Chen's measurements with a tape measure, Xiao Li circled around him before starting to select the shirts.
The process was quick; Su Chen didn't have to wait long. Several outfits and shoes were laid out in front of him.
"Sir, what do you think? Is there any color you don't like?"
Su Chen glanced at them; they were all quite nice, and he nodded in satisfaction.
Seeing Su Chen's satisfied expression, Xiao Li gestured towards the fitting room not far away, saying, "Sir, this is our fitting room; you can try it on!"
"Okay!" Su Chen picked up an outfit and went into the fitting room.
They say clothes make the man!
When Su Chen came out of the fitting room after changing, he was shocked by his reflection in the mirror.
If Su Chen's looks were an 80 before entering the fitting room, now they were at least an 85. If he tidied his messy hair, he would be even more handsome!
Su Chen stood in front of the mirror, looking at himself from side to side, and nodded in satisfaction.
"Hey Xiao Li, I won't try on the rest of the outfits!"
A hint of regret flashed in Xiao Li's eyes upon hearing this, but he still smiled and said, "Okay, sir."
He then prepared to take the remaining outfits and shoes back. Su Chen, standing nearby, was stunned.
"Uh... I mean, I want all of these outfits!"
Su Chen's words were like heavenly music to Xiao Li, who excitedly exclaimed, "Really?"
This instantly attracted a lot of attention.
Xiao Li realized he had been too excited, apologized to Su Chen, and quickly walked to the counter with the clothes.
The female shop manager was completely dumbfounded when she learned that Su Chen had bought six outfits.
"Are all rich kids these days pretending to be poor while actually being rich?"
These outfits cost Su Chen a total of 120,000 yuan, which translates to about 20,000 yuan per outfit and shoe.
Su Chen looked at the dozen or so shopping bags and was somewhat troubled.
Seemingly sensing Su Chen's troubles, Xiao Li approached him and said, "Sir, we can deliver it to your home."
"Okay~" Su Chen left his phone number and address and strode away in his newly bought clothes.
Xiao Li, holding a piece of paper, stared blankly at Su Chen's departing figure.
"Xiao Li, what are you standing here for! Hurry up and deliver these clothes!" The female shop manager frowned slightly, assuming Xiao Li was too excited about his sales to process what he'd done.
Xiao Li turned around, "Manager, do you think rich people are all very low-key?"
"Hmm?" The manager looked at Xiao Li with some surprise, waiting for him to continue.
"That simply dressed handsome guy lives in the hundred-million-dollar Seaview One!"
After saying this, Xiao Li carefully put the paper in his pocket, glancing at the somewhat bewildered manager, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.
