The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 242: Chapter 149: A Perfect Match!

Zhou Wang sometimes felt quite envious of his mom’s generation.

They might not have had much materially when they were young, but at least they grew up never feeling lonely.

Six siblings!

Unlike their generation, most of whom are only children, if they couldn’t find a suitable partner, they’d be left with no real emotional support after their parents passed...

A large group returned to the main house, watching the bustling and cheerful scene—it was still the familiar past atmosphere. But this time, Zhou Wang couldn’t squat in the corner by the fire playing on his phone. He was directly placed by his uncle in the central seat on the sofa, right next to his slightly bewildered grandmother.

Though Zhou Wang’s grandmother was aged, her spirit was still vibrant. She had wanted to join the fun just now but was stopped by his aunt...

So, the grandmother and aunt were the only ones unaware of what was going on.

However, the grandmother could tell the changes in her eldest grandson.

She didn’t understand hairstyles or fashion and couldn’t describe any vibe, but she just sensed... my eldest grandson looks truly spirited!

”Grandma, I’ve missed you so much!”

Zhou Wang sat beside his grandmother, hugging her like he did as a child, and laughed heartily.

This scene surprised Zhou Wang’s parents, yet also brought a sense of comfort to their eyes.

Ever since Zhou Wang grew up, like most boys, he rarely expressed his feelings openly. Usually, when faced with affection from elders, he felt mostly awkward...

It was at this moment they truly felt that their son had genuinely matured.

To all this sentiment, Zhou Wang could only say that it’s no wonder everyone wishes to have money. If you can also be ”successful while young” like me, a change of mindset is merely an instant realization...

”Good, good, as long as you’re back!”

The grandmother cheerfully held Zhou Wang’s hand, ”Graduated yet? Found a job...”

”Mom, your grandson has truly prospered now; he came back in a big Benz!”

Before Zhou Wang could respond, his uncle Zhao Guilin had already started his mouth-on mode, saying it with emotion.

”Zhou Wang, how did you make your fortune?”

His aunt eagerly asked.

All the relatives in the house fixated on Zhou Wang. Whether it was the second uncle who left first or the third uncle, or the younger aunt and big uncle who left later, all they knew was that the eldest sister’s family had become wealthy, and Zhou Wang had struck it rich...

Yet, the actual situation was still clouded for everyone, and they were extremely curious...

”You all know, I fiddled a bit during my first few years at college. Wasn’t there a time when I borrowed a few thousand yuan from my lil’ uncle... well, the online investment failed at that time, but it later revived, so I made some money, and gradually invested in some industries, and it turned out this way.”

Facing relatives, naturally, he couldn’t use the wording he used with his parents. Zhou Wang had already discussed this with them beforehand.

Why not mention the lottery?

Because Zhou Wang did not want to give his relatives the wrong impression that his money was too easily earned...

Though his mother’s side of the family had good relationships, apart from the occasionally money-minded little aunt, there wasn’t any annoying relative like in TV dramas. However, human hearts, being the way they are, should be tested as little as possible...

”What investment was that? How much money did you make?”

Big uncle Zhao Guishan couldn’t help but ask.

While the little uncle made some money in the fruit business and managed to build a house, the big uncle had lived through constant ups and downs without much success for years. At this moment, hearing that Zhou Wang might have a path to earning money, he naturally became interested.

”It’s not possible now, most online investments are scams after the official controls. All elders, do not touch them, even I dare not invest money anymore.”

Zhou Wang quickly extinguished his big uncle’s hopes and then smiled warmly, ”Currently, most of my assets aren’t cash, but combined they are several tens of millions...”

It wasn’t that Zhou Wang intended to hide something.

Among his grandmother’s six children, only Zhou Wang’s mom, Zhao Guihua, had truly established herself in the city. The rest of the elders all lived in the countryside for a long time. Though they had no worries about food and shelter, the annual cash income they could have apart from the small contractor third uncle and the fruit-selling little uncle was not much...

Hence, with their understanding of money, even a hundred thousand was already quite impressive. Several tens of millions were nearly their intellectual limit of imagination—it wasn’t necessary to use ”billion” as a unit.

Because the effect was the same...

Indeed, even the little uncle, who had contacts with hundreds of thousands in ”big money,” was heavily astonished, let alone the others.

”Oh my!”

”How much money is that...”

”Unbelievable, unbelievable!”

At this moment, the rural people’s simplicity showed again. Regardless of gender, they did not conceal their shock and envy displayed on their faces.

The grandmother also let out an ”oh,” continuously clapping Zhou Wang’s hand gently, ”It’s good you’ve made money, my eldest grandson’s become a boss, good, good...”

”Zhou Wang, since you’ve made money, when are you going to let us elders enjoy life!”

Amidst a tide of astonished laughter, the little aunt covered her mouth and chuckled.

Half-jokingly, but also revealing a hint of jealousy in her tone.

What Zhou Wang found interesting was that... even his little aunt herself didn’t realize what mindset she had when saying this.

So Zhou Wang didn’t bother to hold it against her, just laughed, ”That’s a given, we’re a family, it’s my duty to respect the elders!”

”Qingkui!”

Zhou Wang called out, and Jiang Qingkui, who had been waiting by the door, immediately came in.
