The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1734: Chapter 708: Date?_2

”Hmm, besides, do you remember that bag of money? You refused to keep it yourself, but it actually offset a lot of your medical bills...”

The ”bag of money” Zhou Wang was talking about was the compensation Gao Xing contributed to Zhao Yu’s younger brother, neither too much nor too little, probably around a few hundred thousand.

Originally, this money was meant for Zhao Yu, but Zhao Yu absolutely refused to accept it. Zhou Wang couldn’t explain Zhao Biao’s matter to him either. So later, Zhou Wang asked Xu Wenqian to open a card in Linlin’s name, just to cover her college tuition, which was then kept with Xu Wenqian.

”Boss, I...”

”Don’t call me boss anymore, maybe you should just call me by my name. Always saying ’boss, boss’ sounds very distant, although I grew up with you watching, or you could call my nickname too.”

Zhou Wang interrupted Zhao Yu, laughed as he spoke, but after saying it, he felt something strange about his words.

Sister Xiao Yu didn’t speak for a moment, just kept wiping her tears.

Zhou Wang waited a few seconds, seeing her lips trembling, but unable to say anything, he took a deep breath, and with great effort, held Sister Xiao Yu up and stood. Then he gently placed her on the floor.

Water droplets fell, and the nightdress clung tight. With just a fleeting glance, Zhou Wang realized Sister Xiao Yu’s mature body was far more curvy and enchanting than he had imagined, like a ripe peach tempting a hungry traveler in the haze.

”I’ll head out first, Sister Xiao Yu, you should rest early too.”

Zhou Wang picked up a towel nearby and wiped himself haphazardly, then left the bathroom with a robe draped over him.

...

On the balcony in the living room.

The cigarette butt glimmered on and off.

Looking up at the night sky, Zhou Wang was surprised to find that in Qin Island’s winter, a few stars could still be seen in the city, sparse yet rare.

After smoking two cigarettes consecutively, feeling his inner turmoil barely calmed, Zhou Wang turned to head towards his room.

Passing the living room, he heard the bathroom door opening in the hallway, then the sound of the secondary bedroom door opening; probably, Sister Xiao Yu came out of the bathroom and returned to her room.

The two-bedroom layout naturally meant Zhou Wang lived in one room, while Sister Xiao Yu and Linlin shared the other.

Seeing Sister Xiao Yu obediently return to her room, Zhou Wang finally extinguished the last bit of fantasy in his heart, returned to his room at the other end of the hallway, laid on the bed, but couldn’t fall asleep for a while.

Zhou Wang hadn’t gone to bed before eleven o’clock for a long time, this sudden change in routine made him somewhat lost.

With nothing to do, he could only engage in the cheapest entertainment... scrolling Douyin.

Yeah, scroll for half an hour then sleep, I should live a bit healthily.

Thinking this way, Zhou Wang sat up from the bed, picked up the flower tea Linlin made for him earlier at the bedside, and took a sip.

”Running 5 kilometers can extend your life by 20 minutes, but it takes away 30 minutes from your life, and the extension is in your old age, while what’s taken is from youth, so is there a chance... your lost lifespan from staying up late has already been earned back by staying up late?”

However, the first video opened on Douyin almost made Zhou Wang spit out his tea.

He was amused yet strangely felt that what the person said made sense, completely unable to refute.

Silently, Zhou Wang gave the person a like and continued scrolling.

At this time, Zhou Wang heard some noise from the hallway outside, listened closely, it seemed someone had gone into the bathroom again.

Is it Linlin?

Zhou Wang quickly withdrew his attention and continued scrolling on his phone.

Short videos soon became boring after watching for a while, Zhou Wang could only turn to the live broadcast channel.

Speaking of which, although Zhou Wang’s personal assets were frozen, the Douyin coins he charged before were still there, totaling tens of thousands of RMB.

It’s worth mentioning that due to recent trending events, Zhou Wang’s social platform follower count reached a new high, regardless of whether there were many haters among them,

Glancing at the rankings, Zhou Wang noticed ”Wang Xiaoxiao” and the like were not live, but saw a familiar face streaming, so he entered the person’s live room.

Zhou Wang’s current Douyin level is 55, the maximum is said to be 60, but someone estimated that reaching 60 requires spending 20 to 30 million, thus these god-like full-level accounts are extremely rare, even Zhou Wang hasn’t reached it.

From level 56 onwards, each level up spans millions, especially the final 59 to 60, the experience needed for the last level might require spending another 10 million to 20 million.

But level 55 is already quite impressive, representing at least two to three million in consumption history, so when Zhou Wang entered the room, a special effect displayed, indicating that advanced user ”Play Dagger Hands-Free” joined the room.

Lin Dantong, who was streaming, was momentarily stunned and then showed a rather joyful smile: ”Welcome ’Play Dagger Hands-Free’.”

Zhou Wang, separated by the screen, studied Lin Dantong’s distinct features, black strapless dress revealing a large portion of white, delicate collarbones, sexy and cool.

Zhou Wang always appreciated her highly distinctive features, now feeling a mischievous urge.

[User ”Play Dagger Hands-Free” sent the host ”Douyin One” x1]

Zhou Wang first gifted an extravagant gift worth 2888 RMB, then habitually typed two words on the screen: ”Wanna meet?”

A stone stirred up waves.

Before Lin Dantong could respond, the live room’s ”1W+” fans were already in an uproar.

”Who is this guy?”

”Damn, sending a ’Douyin One’ and acting all big?”

”Dantong goddess is not for the likes of you to taint!”

”Get lost!”

The fans were outraged, immediately, other top supporters on the list also retaliated by sending multiple Carnivals.

Zhou Wang was not surprised by this scene, considering Lin Dantong’s genuine status as a multi-million top influencer, obviously on a different level from ”Wang Xiaoxiao” and the like. During her streams, though gifts worth a few thousand RMB wouldn’t always flood the screen, they were indeed frequently seen, and Lin Dantong probably wouldn’t feel anything significant inside.

Zhou Wang didn’t mind, as he was just passing time, initially planning to send Lin Dantong more money and tease a couple more words, but Lin Dantong suddenly smiled, saying:

”Sure.”

This made the live room quieted for a moment; even Zhou Wang hesitated, not sure if she was responding to him.

Then Lin Dantong playfully blinked, ”But Mr. Brother, you haven’t even joined my fan group or entered the internal chat, how are we supposed to meet?”

The atmosphere in the live room suddenly relaxed, everyone realized Lin Dantong was showing her emotional intelligence, using playful banter to keep this fan who could send luxurious gifts engaged.

This is typical for hosts, and everyone wouldn’t find it too peculiar.

At this moment, Lin Dantong fiddled with her phone.

Chime.

When Zhou Wang heard the sound on his phone, he sensed something. Checking his WhatsApp, sure enough, it was a message from Lin Dantong:

”Mr. Zhou, really want to meet?”

Seeing this message, Zhou Wang couldn’t help but grin.

Turns out Lin Dantong recognized his account, no wonder Lin Dantong appeared so surprised when he joined her live room... he suspected that a level 55 account wouldn’t be enough to make Lin Dantong react like that.

Most likely, this information spread from ”Wang Xiaoxiao,” given that both are under Wuyou Media, they naturally remember such important info.

However, Zhou Wang was somewhat puzzled, uncertain whether Lin Dantong’s message was a joke among acquaintances or a genuinely ambiguous probe?

As Zhou Wang hesitated on how to reply to Lin Dantong, the bedroom door suddenly turned open.
