The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 559: Chapter 235 A Typical Day

After casually loading a thousand yuan onto a private photo membership card and using the bonus five hundred to settle the bill, Zhou Wang walked out of the Yue Center under a sky full of stars.

Miao Ying, who took a cab over to drive him, was still on the way. Zhou Wang lit a cigarette and wandered aimlessly nearby.

The taste was smooth and tender, large but not rigid, leaving an endless aftertaste...

Otherwise, Zhou Wang wouldn’t have rushed to secure Shen Yutong’s role and transferred her two hundred thousand.

That was...

”Wear and Tear Allowance.”

Beep!

An ear-piercing horn honked from behind, and Zhou Wang stepped aside, frowning as he turned to look.

A Toyota Prado with a Gui Province license plate sped out of the parking lot. It almost hit another pedestrian due to its speed, causing the person to curse loudly.

”Dumbass, do you know how to drive your dad’s car!”

Screech!

The Toyota Prado came to an abrupt stop, and a face appeared in the driver’s window, immediately cursing:

”Thank you, you filthy jerk, I’m your dad, you deadweight...”

Zhou Wang paused in shock, listening to the torrent of crude dialects flying between the regions.

He glanced through the car window. Besides Liu Chao, Shen Yutong’s brother-in-law, he caught a glimpse of Zhang Lifang; Shen Yutong’s sister, Shen Yurou, wasn’t in the car.

After exchanging curses with the guy from Ming City, Liu Chao tried to get out of the car to challenge him, but when several of the guy’s friends arrived, Liu Chao chickened out, quietly closed the window, and sped away.

”Bastard, don’t let me see you again, or I’ll beat you every time I do!”

The Ming City guy shouted, pointing at the back of the Prado.

Watching the Prado disappear quickly down the street, Zhou Wang smiled wryly, lost in thought.

It seemed Shen Yutong had taken the first step.

Good for her.

...

Monday, September 2, 2024, the temperature in Ming City was 21°C, neither cold nor hot, just right.

At 10:30 in the morning, covered with a light blanket, Zhou Wang opened his eyes on the black Hastens custom-made bed. Staring at the ceiling engraved with warm geometric lines, he suddenly sat up.

Yawning, Zhou Wang reached for his phone on the nightstand and also picked up the nearby thin stick of Zhonghua cigarettes, lighting one for himself.

After unlocking the phone, Zhou Wang leaned against the headboard and started scrolling through his Moments.

Having inadvertently triggered some thoughts while browsing Moments the other day, Zhou Wang had resumed the habit of checking it.

Mainly, he realized that he wasn’t actually that busy. No, compared to others with similar assets, he was indeed quite idle and should pay more attention to his ”friends’” activities.

The first post refreshed on his feed was from Shen Yutong.

She had already joined the ”Chutian Yao” production crew in White City. Although there were more than ten days before filming officially started and the main actors hadn’t arrived, Shen Yutong was aware of the situation and planned to familiarize herself with the environment, taking the opportunity to find an acting coach to improve her skills.

The Moments post contained two photos, one of a leave of absence application from Caiyi and another a selfie of her and her sister Shen Yurou on the high-speed train.

The sisters leaned against each other. Shen Yutong beamed at the camera, making a peace sign, while Shen Yurou looked shyly down. However, this high-low angle made the photo unexpectedly harmonious.

Zhou Wang found himself momentarily lost, noticing how from this photo, Shen Yutong’s sister Shen Yurou seemed more charming...

But he really wasn’t into mature women.

Shaking his head, Zhou Wang snapped back to reality.

Shen Yutong had actually taken Shen Yurou with her?

Zhou Wang was slightly surprised, as Shen Yutong hadn’t mentioned it in their recent daily chats.

But upon reflection, it wasn’t surprising. Although there had been substantial progress in their relationship, Shen Yutong’s ”insecurity” about her less presentable upbringing made her reluctant to bring these things up unless necessary.

Scrolling further down, he found Su Yajing’s Moments right next to Shen Yutong’s.

”I miss my mom and aunt so much, but I miss you more.”

There was no photo, only text, and it was tagged at ”Li City High-Speed Rail Station.”

Caiyi had started school a few days earlier, but Su Yajing only returned today, which was a late check-in.

Zhou Wang’s eyes softened for a moment, thinking that it had been almost a month since he last saw Su Yajing, and he really did miss the little fox.

The reason he didn’t feel it normally was that, of everyone, Su Yajing was the one who kept in touch the most. Even if Zhou Wang didn’t respond, she would keep chatting with him, often talking about random things lightheartedly, always giving Zhou Wang the illusion that ”she never went far away.”

After browsing through Moments for a while, Zhou Wang exited WeChat and opened his Douyin app.

Four days in, the first video he posted on his personal account had finally produced some final data.

According to Lin Ran’s prediction, there would likely be a slight increase in the future, but the basic trend was already established.

The ”I am Zhou Wang” video currently had 3.25 million likes, the play count had reached an astonishing 80 million, with 1.72 million comments and 1.09 million shares.

For a new account, these numbers were undoubtedly remarkable, typically only achievable by top-tier celebrities making their first post on Douyin, and even then, they’d have to be pretty popular...

Although the video’s production quality was extremely high and Zhou Wang was indeed handsome, combined with some mysterious tags, its viral success was expected, but not to this extent.
