The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 65: Chapter 62 Homework Check

“You guys are staying in a villa while on your trip?”

On the other end of the video call, Ding Yi stood on the balcony, the garden and fountain vaguely visible behind her. Zhou Wang couldn’t help but joke, “The accommodations are quite nice!”

It was already the morning of the second day. Originally, they were just exchanging morning greetings on WeChat, but somehow they ended up in a competition over breakfast quality, and then Ding Yi made a video call.

To be honest, before answering the call, Zhou Wang felt a bit nervous.

They hadn’t actually seen each other at the birthday party, so this was essentially their first face-to-face chat since graduation.

...

However, the moment the video connected and he saw the stunning face on the other end, a mix of brightness and innocence, Zhou Wang suddenly felt at ease.

After graduating, Ding Yi stopped dressing plainly, becoming even more beautiful, but Zhou Wang was no longer the same Zhou Wang.

In terms of his mindset, this was the second time he came to terms with things, though the first was with others, and this time… it was with himself.

“It was arranged by the client who hired Professor Wang for a lawsuit, a private estate in Hang City. It’s quite pretty.”

Ding Yi spoke while holding up her phone to show him around.

Though she was expressing admiration, Zhou Wang sensed a hint of nonchalance behind her tone.

As Zhou Wang gradually embarked on the path of wealth, looking back at the details of their past interactions with a broadened perspective, he became clearly aware of how good Ding Yi’s family background was.

Likely on the same level as Young Master Zhang.

So with their relationship growing warmer, Zhou Wang actually felt a little troubled.

He was indeed attracted to Ding Yi, after all, she was a great beauty on par with Jiang Mo, with the added allure of being a “white moonlight.” It was bound to be an extraordinary experience.

But he also knew very well that Ding Yi was different from Jiang Mo. His money power would be ineffective in front of Ding Yi, which theoretically meant that unless he intended to rekindle romance and step into marriage, it was best not to get involved with a girl like Ding Yi—

Hell, I’m already this rich, and I’d still be shackled by intangible emotions. What a joke!

Zhou Wang thought it through clearly.

Recently, it was mostly Ding Yi who reached out to him, and Zhou Wang had made up his mind: he’d adopt a “three no” principle with Ding Yi, never initiating anything… unless she insisted.

“Sitting in the living room reading, is that Senior Sister Jiang Mo?”

As Ding Yi turned around, Zhou Wang asked in mock surprise.

He actually already knew that Ding Yi and Jiang Mo were sharing a room, but Ding Yi wasn’t aware they knew each other. Zhou Wang thought it was time to lay some groundwork, or else it could become a hidden issue later.

The sly guy, despite claiming he wouldn’t mess with Ding Yi, subconsciously made long-term plans.

Even boldly entertained a thought in his mind.

If he could have Jiang Mo and Ding Yi stand side by side, with their distinct personalities, the combined effect would be like… a “Song of Ice and Fire.”

“Yeah, isn’t she a great beauty?” Ding Yi chuckled, deliberately turning the camera toward Jiang Mo.

“Huh, I think I know Senior Sister!”

“Really?” Ding Yi was a bit surprised.

“Yeah, I think I saw her at school before, just not sure if Senior Sister Jiang Mo remembers me.”

Zhou Wang mused, “Tell you what, pass the phone to Senior Sister, let me say hi to her.”

“Okay!”

Ding Yi didn’t give it much thought, even found it amusing, and she ran over to Jiang Mo, bringing the still somewhat puzzled Jiang Mo into the camera.

“Senior Jiang, Zhou Wang says he knows you. Do you remember him?”

“I…”

Jiang Mo had known all along that Ding Yi was video chatting with Zhou Wang. She was just pretending to be calm earlier, never expecting Zhou Wang to suddenly throw a fastball, making her a bit at a loss for words.

“Senior Sister Jiang, don’t you remember? We took an elective class together. Let me think, it seemed to be called ‘Physiology of Fruit Cultivation’ or something like that…”

“Does Cai University have such an elective?”

While Zhou Wang was “struggling to recall,” Ding Yi asked curiously.

“Yes, yes, I think so…”

Jiang Mo’s ears turned bright red, stammering unable to respond properly.

Knock knock knock!

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Ding Yi stuck out her tongue, stood up with an “Ah,” and said, “It should be the professor. I forgot to reply to her message. You two chat first.”

With that, Ding Yi placed the phone in Jiang Mo’s hand and quickly ran out of the living room.

“You, how can you…”

Jiang Mo, who was relieved, didn’t get a chance to reprimand Zhou Wang before seeing his smile disappear.

“Senior Sister, now’s the perfect time, let me check your homework.”

At his words, the blush that had subsided on Jiang Mo’s face flared up again.

“Hurry.”

Zhou Wang frowned slightly, speaking softly.

Nervously, Jiang Mo glanced back, then tilted the camera down, quickly lifting her black skirt.

In sight, on each side of her fair, well-proportioned thighs were two elegant characters.

On the left was “Zhou Wang,” and on the right was “Exclusive.”

As Jiang Mo tightly shut her eyes, trembling all over from embarrassment, Zhou Wang’s lips curled up.

“Not bad, I’m quite satisfied.”

…

After finishing breakfast, but before heading to the library, Bella, carrying several gift boxes, found Zhou Wang.

“Mr. Zhou, do these gifts look appropriate to you?”

The idea came from Xu Wenqian telling him last night before bed that the house was secured, complete with a video and a detailed introduction she compiled.

Zhou Wang greatly appreciated her efficiency. Though she was technically his exclusive client manager, serving him was only natural, but it was a personal matter, and Zhou Wang couldn’t leave it unacknowledged.

So he asked Bella to help prepare a gift in return, and then thought, might as well prepare a few more in case he needed to curry favor in the future.

“Bulgari?”

Zhou Wang glanced at the logo on the gift bag, curiously asking, “Wouldn’t a few thousand bucks be inadequate for this brand?”

Bulgari (BVLGARI) is a top luxury brand from Italy, and his budget for Bella was under ten thousand, which made him a bit puzzled.

“I chose a fragrance gift box, which includes four of Bulgari’s latest perfumes, perfect for gifting to women. As for the price, each gift box is around six thousand, so it’s within your budget.”

Bella explained with a smile while opening the box for Zhou Wang to take a look.

“Not bad, not bad.”

Zhou Wang glanced at it, nodded with satisfaction. It was classy and not too expensive, just right as a “small gift.”

After putting five identical gift bags into the trunk, Zhou Wang drove the Ferrari 812C to the Provincial Library.

Not until the sun set at dusk, stretching out in a lazy yawn, Zhou Wang emerged from his reading mode, picked up his phone and sent a message to Xu Wenqian:

“I’m done, send me your location, I’ll come pick you up.”
