The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1665: Chapter 674: Preparation_2

When he was in Korea, although no media dared to report gossip about Zhou Wang, in situations where Zhou Wang didn’t deliberately hide it, he believed that Jin Zhixiu must have heard some rumors...

Or perhaps she didn’t even need to hear it, after all, the four girls of BlackPink were often together day and night, and Jin Zhixiu might have already noticed something from Jenny and Lisa.

Zhou Wang didn’t know what her mental journey was, but since she hadn’t brought it up herself or questioned him, Zhou Wang happily played dumb—

This was also a way for Zhou Wang to test her, to see how much she could accept in this regard.

The women who called him, upon seeing that he didn’t answer or respond, all tacitly maintained silence and didn’t call a second time.

But Zhou Wang considered this not a good sign; larger storms often brew in such silence...

Shaking his head, Zhou Wang continued to check other unread messages.

It seemed that those silently paying attention to his birthday were more than he imagined, and among those who sent him timely birthday greetings, there were quite a few whom Zhou Wang had almost forgotten.

Chen Shu: ”Mr. Zhou, I apologize for the intrusion. Happy birthday. I sent you a few pounds of tea to the address Chen Mei gave me, as a small token... Also, you might not remember, but you still have a hundred thousand left unspent with me, remember to come by when you’re back in Ming City (wink).”

Sun Xining: ”Major shareholder, happy birthday! Um, Lisa wants to come to Magic City with me to attend your birthday party, is that okay... Although I didn’t receive an invitation, I still want to hand-deliver the carefully prepared gift (shy.gif).”

Wang Xiaoxiao: ”Mr. Zhou, happy birthday... I, I didn’t know what to say, so I recorded a song for you. Can you listen to it when you have time?”

Jiang Mubai: ”(Heart-shape private photo) Daddy, happy birthday! (Voice message)”

Shen Yurou: ”I heard from Tongtong that today is your birthday. I didn’t know what to give you, so I knitted a scarf for you. It should have been sent already. You... try it, if you don’t like it, you can just throw it away.”

Hua Suisui: ”Zhou Wang, happy birthday, and also, I have a small request. Can you agree to it? (Location.gps)”

...

Unknown Contact 1: ”Mr. Zhou, happy birthday. I recently went to Iceland and saw the Northern Lights (photo)... I went completely on my own efforts and realized many things again. Thank you very much, regardless.”

Unknown Contact 2: ”Although you are a bad guy, I still want to wish you... a happy birthday.”

...

Zhou Wang scrolled through all the WhatsApps and text messages. Even with just a quick glance, it took him over half an hour.

The main issue was that it contained a large number of various brand sales, bank representatives, and messages from operators with their blessings. Just screening through them took Zhou Wang quite some time.

However, seeing so many familiar yet strange names again, Zhou Wang still felt quite emotional.

If he could do it all over again, he might not provoke so many women, like Wang Xiaoxiao, bound by the {Desire Manual}. At the time, it was just a sudden surge of emotion, unleashing his evil side, but Zhou Wang actually didn’t have any substantial feelings for her.

Ordinarily, Zhou Wang wouldn’t even remember her existence, let alone contact her proactively, but to Wang Xiaoxiao, Zhou Wang had become her ”sky.”

Under the binding mechanism of the {Manual}, her body, heart, and spirit are destined to belong only to Zhou Wang, and she can’t even divert her attention if she wanted to... With this thought, Zhou Wang still felt a bit guilty. After all, behind the ”come when called and go when waved away” was a woman’s deep feelings.

Even if such feelings have a few twisted connotations.

”Let’s forget about the past, I definitely can’t be so casual in the future.”

Zhou Wang warned himself secretly.

As for those messages from unfamiliar numbers, Zhou Wang didn’t have much clue, but he vaguely had some guesses.

But on this special day that could easily become complicated, Zhou Wang didn’t have the desire to investigate, lest it causes unnecessary trouble.

Whether the plan could proceed smoothly, Zhou Wang actually didn’t have much confidence, but now it was time to proceed with the first step of the groundwork phase.

With this in mind, Zhou Wang sat up from the bed, lit a cigarette, and opened a group chat showing ”someone @ you”—[Good Uncle and his Nephews].

The unread messages scrolled up to over eight hundred, and in fact, it wasn’t just last night; about a week ago, this group suddenly became very lively.

As men, they naturally wouldn’t specifically pay attention to Zhou Wang’s birthday, but Qiu Zeyu’s girlfriend, Miss Wang, had previously reminded Qiu Zeyu... After the Ao Island trip, Miss Wang got along well with Su Yajing and the other girls, likely heard about it from them.

So after knowing about Zhou Wang’s birthday, Qiu Zeyu directly @Zhou Wang in the group, asking how he planned to spend his birthday and if he’d need the brothers to help organize.

The group was generally a bunch of idle rich second generations, and hearing Zhou Wang was going to have a birthday, they all became excited, enthusiastically discussing various ideas and strategies.

Shao Xiaoqi suggested imitating a luxury event, directly taking a yacht out to sea from Hai Province for a young model party.

This suggestion was immediately vetoed by Guo Bing, who thought it was too low-class and didn’t match Mr. Zhou’s impressive status. He believed they should directly charter an island in the Maldives, fly there by private plane, and draw a hundred top models from the modeling circle as waitresses to show off Mr. Zhou’s grandeur...

Then Guo Bing’s proposal was also criticized by Young Master Zhang and others, who believed it was essentially no different from Shao Xiaoqi’s suggestion, both being equally low-class.

Young Master Zhang believed it was better to hold a formal dinner party. After all, Zhou Wang was now a prominent figure in high society, and the occasion should carry the proper weight.

Old Ruan thought that since Zhou Wang was still young, there was no need to strictly adhere to formalities. They could totally go abroad to party, even Antarctica or the North Pole if time allowed, and he could help arrange it.

Ultimately, it was Young Master Qiu who incisively pointed out the problem: ”Brother Dog probably doesn’t know how to spend this birthday, but rather doesn’t know who to spend it with...”

Young Master Zhang and others recalled Zhou Wang’s various ”emotional debts,” and they immediately burst into uniform laughter.

With their status and wealth, they naturally wouldn’t lack women around them.

But those women who open their legs for enough money couldn’t compare to the women around Zhou Wang.

Not to mention the godly looks of Jiang Mo or Jiang Qingkui, even Su Yajing, who’s a bit less eye-catching, is a rare find in the peripheral circles.

This was what they envied and despised most about Zhou Wang... how could this dog manage to attract so many high-quality women without an accident? What made him so special?

Although they usually didn’t say it, they secretly longed for Zhou Wang to have a big ”accident.”

Now there seemed to be an opportunity, one that Zhou Wang couldn’t avoid, so they gleefully took perverse pleasure, delighting in others’ misfortune without any restraint, as if enjoying the excitement of watching a spectacle.

These days Zhou Wang hadn’t appeared in the group, but they didn’t care, as they all knew that ”Brother Dog is under a lot of pressure now”...

It didn’t stop them from repeatedly discussing how to resolve Zhou Wang’s ”birthday disaster.” Having realized there was no way for Zhou Wang to escape, they would pretend to comfort him, filling the entire group with a joyful atmosphere.

Since it was morning, the group wasn’t particularly active, so Zhou Wang quickly typed a message in the group:

”Brothers, take care in the future.”

After sending it, Zhou Wang hesitated a moment but ultimately made up his mind and disbanded the group chat.
