Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Bring-Your-Own-Awesome Aura_1

A big star asking me out? How could I say no!

King Chubi: ”Okay, sure.”

Qing World Lotus: ”Then, goodnight. I’m going to sleep.”

”Goodnight.”

Chu Hao took a deep breath, feeling a little excited. This was his most official date ever, and she had asked him out first. He couldn’t disappoint her.

After turning off his phone, Chu Hao closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep, anticipating tomorrow. Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

”Who’s knocking at this ungodly hour? Doesn’t anyone want to sleep?”

Opening the door, he saw a slender beauty standing outside—who else could it be but Ya Xiao?

Chu Hao asked in surprise, ”Sister Ya Xiao, why aren’t you sleeping at this hour? What’s up?”

Ya Xiao looked a bit embarrassed. ”Do you have anything on tomorrow? I was hoping you could go out with me.”

”I’m sorry, Sister Ya Xiao, but I have plans tomorrow.”

A date with a superstar—I can’t mess this up! Chu Hao decisively turned down Ya Xiao.

Ya Xiao looked visibly disappointed. ”Alright then. Goodnight.”

Chu Hao was a bit puzzled. Why does she look so unhappy in the middle of the night? He wanted to ask but decided against it.

「The next day.」

Chu Hao got up at seven o’clock, unable to sleep any longer. I’m meeting a superstar; I have to dress to impress!

He styled his hair in an outrageously cool way and then admired his physique in the bedroom mirror, looking utterly smitten with himself.

Chu Hao said narcissistically, ”With a body like mine, if I go out and show it off, won’t all the beauties just be lining up to get with me?”

Just then, Qing World Lotus sent a message: ”Are you awake?”

Look at that! The superstar is even more anxious than I am. That’s the charm of Brother Hao for you!

King Chubi: ”Been awake for a while.”

Qing World Lotus: ”I’ll come and pick you up.”

Chu Hao: ”No need, I’ll come to you.”

Qing World Lotus: ”Send me your address.”

The superstar is so assertive. She must be really good in bed... haha... Wiping drool... Man, that’s a depraved thought!

After sending his location, he walked down from his small building, full of vigor, to wait. A neighboring auntie, squatting and brushing her teeth, asked, ”Little Chu, why are you up so early today?”

Since Chu Hao had driven away the demolition team last time, the neighbors’ opinion of him had greatly improved. They greeted him regularly whenever they saw him.

Chu Hao said proudly, ”I have a very important date.”

The auntie asked, ”A date? With a girl or a boy?”

Chu Hao’s face darkened. If I’m not dating a girl, would I be dating a boy?

Chu Hao snorted. ”Of course, it’s with a girl. Auntie, you’re overthinking things.”

The auntie sighed. ”What a pity. I was thinking of introducing you to my daughter.”

A chill ran down Chu Hao’s spine. ”No need, Auntie. I have a girlfriend.”

”Auntie heard you were single, didn’t I? Is she prettier than my daughter? If not, then never mind. In today’s society, talent isn’t as important as good looks, and my daughter is quite pretty, you know,” the auntie said, her tone a mix of interrogation and heartfelt advice.

WHAT THE—?! Your daughter has the build of a wrestler, and you have the nerve to call her pretty? I feel like spraying your face with air freshener!

Chu Hao shivered with disgust and shook his head. ”No need, my girlfriend is very pretty.”

”You’re still young; you don’t understand. Nowadays, just being pretty isn’t enough to get by. My daughter can do heavy labor; she’s worth two ordinary women, and she’s easy to provide for,” the auntie continued to promote her daughter.

Chu Hao was getting really fed up with this auntie. Just a moment ago, she was saying her daughter was pretty, and now she’s highlighting her ability to do manual labor! With your daughter’s physique, if she had been there during the demolition, would my help even have been needed?

Just then, a silver sports car drove down the road—definitely a luxury car worth over a million.

And look at that! All the neighbors on the street turned to stare, their faces full of curiosity.

The car window rolled down, revealing a beautiful girl wearing sunglasses. Beneath the frames, a stunning face could be discerned—who else could it be but Yi Qinglian?

Yi Qinglian: ”Have you been waiting long?”

Chu Hao: ”Not too long.”

Yi Qinglian: ”Get in.”

As he spoke, Chu Hao turned to look at the auntie and said, ”This is my girlfriend. You can save your daughter for someone else. Goodbye!”

”DING... Host has successfully shown off, gaining 20 Pretentiousness Points.”

See? I can show off wherever I go. Sweet!

The auntie was dumbfounded. The girl in the car was unbelievably beautiful, outshining her own daughter by a margin as vast as the Earth’s equator.

An old man who was having his hair washed nearby was so busy staring at Yi Qinglian in the car that he got shampoo in his eyes and yelped, ”OUCH, my eyes! Man, that stings!”

”Damn! What does that young guy do for a living? He couldn’t possibly be a kept man, could he?”

”That girl looks so familiar... like a celebrity. What’s her name again?!”

The luxury car sped away, leaving the neighbors standing in stunned silence.

「Inside the car.」

Yi Qinglian had put on a wig and sunglasses as part of her disguise, making her look like a completely different person. Her snow-white skin and stunning figure were enough to make other women feel inadequate.

To have such a figure at eighteen was undoubtedly the nightmare of many female celebrities.

Seeing how much effort she’d put into her disguise, Chu Hao felt a bit concerned. ”Let’s not go shopping. How about we watch a movie instead?”

Yi Qinglian shook her head. ”No, I haven’t been shopping in a long time.”

Entering the mall, Yi Qinglian was overjoyed. Seemingly forgetting she only had two years left to live, she pulled Chu Hao into a store and began shopping.

「In a discrete corner.」

A man in black spoke quietly, ”Number One, the Young Miss has entered the mall.”

Number One: ”Stay close. Report any developments immediately.”

”Yes, sir.”

These men in black had surrounded the mall as soon as Yi Qinglian arrived, constantly ensuring the Young Miss’s safety.

Yi Qinglian tried on an outfit and walked over to Chu Hao. ”Does it look good?”

Chu Hao stared, completely smitten; Yi Qinglian’s skin was incredibly fair, and in the floral dress, she looked like a little fairy.

Chu Hao gave her a thumbs-up. ”You look good in anything.”

”Naturally!” Yi Qinglian replied, her proud little face tilting upwards.

Yi Qinglian went to change again. Chu Hao was thinking about buying something for himself when a sales assistant approached him with a smile. ”Sir, your girlfriend is so beautiful. She looks just like a big star.”

Oh no! Chu Hao thought. Has she been recognized?

”Sir, would you like to sign up for a membership card? We have a promotion today, so you can get a discount,” the sales assistant said.

Chu Hao waved his hand dismissively. ”No need. I’m in a good mood today, and I don’t like discounted items. I’ll pay whatever the full price is.”

”DING... Host has successfully shown off, gaining 20 Pretentiousness Points.”

The sales assistant was taken aback; she had never encountered anyone like him before. The woman exuded class, but the man’s clothes and appearance didn’t suggest wealth.

Hmph, just a poor guy pretending to be rich, she thought scornfully. If you don’t want a membership card, just say so. Why put on such an act?

With a disdainful look, the sales assistant retreated.

Sales Assistant 2: ”Is he getting a membership card?”

Sales Assistant 1 snorted. ”Him? He’s just a broke loser putting on an act. Look at his clothes. How much money could he possibly have?”

Sales Assistant 2 nodded. ”I think so too. That woman really looks like the superstar Yi Qinglian. If it weren’t for his shabby attire, I’d almost believe it *was* her.”

Sales Assistant 1: ”Exactly! Someone like him, shopping with the superstar Yi Qinglian? Impossible!”

Chu Hao’s hearing was exceptionally sharp, and he overheard their whispers. What trash, looking down on people like that! he fumed internally.

Just then, Yi Qinglian came out and said to Sales Assistant 1, ”Please wrap this up for me.”

As she spoke, she took out her bank card.

Sales Assistant 1 sneered softly to Sales Assistant 2, ”See? The woman is paying. He was just pretending to be a big shot.”

Sales Assistant 2: ”Isn’t that the truth? He actually lets the woman pay! I’ve seen plenty of guys like him—just a kept man, a Little White Face.”

Chu Hao grabbed Yi Qinglian’s hand, his expression grim as he glared intently at the two sales assistants.
