I confess, I am the Mr. Richest-Chapter 290: Because You’re Handsome
Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Because You’re Handsome
The young vendor was boasting, showing off to Mo Yuwan.
As he spoke, the young vendor looked down to take out a golden business card from his pocket, ready to hand it to Mo Yuwan.
However, when he looked up again, he was surprised to find no sign of the beauty he was talking to.
Wasn’t he still speaking?
Looking around, the young vendor noticed that the beauty had already walked away with her male companion, chatting and laughing, with no intention of acknowledging him.
The young vendor stood there awkwardly with the golden business card in hand.
"Hahaha, you failed, huh?"
"It’s hilarious, you tried to hit on her, but she didn’t even notice you from the start."
"That’s true love, not swayed by money."
"Look how handsome her boyfriend is, outshining all those young celeb faces; you thought you could steal her away, without looking at yourself first."
The onlookers understood; driving a Bentley, pretending to be a street vendor was just trying to show off here.
But the attempt to show off failed miserably.
Listening to these comments, the young vendor was restless.
Finally, after a quick tidy-up, with everyone pointing and whispering, he slinked away.
Meanwhile, Chu Chen and Mo Yuwan continued to stroll around outside, then returned together to Tomson Riviera.
At Tomson Riviera, Chu Chen and Mo Yuwan were waiting for the elevator when a young man walked up.
"Huh?"
As the young man noticed Mo Yuwan and Chu Chen, he froze.
So quick to meet again?
This young man was none other than the young vendor who just parked his car.
He also lived at Tomson Riviera.
"Miss, what a coincidence to meet again."
"It’s fate, I just bought a house at Tomson Riviera, haven’t lived there for many days."
The young vendor’s previous attempt at showing off failed, now he wanted to redeem himself.
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Chu Chen raised an eyebrow, voicing a curious sound.
"I live in building B, on the 26th floor. It’s not a big apartment, just 767 square meters with 8 bedrooms, 3 living rooms, 12 bathrooms, and 1 kitchen."
The young vendor cleared his throat and said loudly.
Among all the units in Tomson Riviera, 767 square meters was indeed considered large; apart from Chu Chen’s over 1,000-square-meter mansion, not many could compare.
"And the price was not high, only 207 million."
The young vendor continued boasting.
"Well, as far as I heard, all the apartments in building B are only for rent, not for sale."
At this moment, a calm voice came through.
Upon hearing this, the young vendor ready to boast was tongue-tied, looking embarrassed.
Building B only rents, not sells?
Actually, he was just renting that 767-square-meter mansion; he said so only to boast.
Moreover, he had just moved to Tomson Riviera and didn’t know that building B only rents, not sells.
Just then, the elevator doors opened.
Chu Chen and Mo Yuwan entered, followed closely by the young vendor.
However, when the young vendor saw Chu Chen pressing the floor button, he was dumbfounded.
The top floor?
The very top?
Isn’t that where the most luxurious, largest mansion of Tomson Riviera is?
Did he also rent that unit?
The young vendor felt even more awkward, having failed to boast yet again.
After thinking for a moment, the young vendor spoke again,
"Ahem, well, I’ve already negotiated with Tomson Riviera, and I’ll be buying that unit soon."
Since he started the boast, no matter how filled with holes, he had to tearfully continue.
"Is that so?"
"Then it’s really unfortunate, you probably can’t buy it."
Chu Chen replied.
"Can’t buy it, why?"
The young vendor asked, puzzled.
"Because I’ve already bought the entire building."
Chu Chen gave the young vendor a sympathetic look.
The elevator arrived, and Chu Chen and Mo Yuwan exited.
Only the young vendor was left standing dumbfounded in the elevator.
After seeing the floor Chu Chen pressed, the young vendor was so shocked he forgot to press his own floor.
"Because you bought the entire building?"
The young vendor murmured, trembling.
Bought the entire building?
You must be kidding!
At the very least, it must cost billions!
The young vendor was utterly dumbfounded.
He just wanted to show off a bit, but ended up meeting such a big shot?!
The young vendor felt a massive blow!
This isn’t fair!
...
Having just arrived in Shanghai, Chu Chen gave Mo Yuwan a break to accompany her grandparents, while he went to Villei International University to begin his second day of experiencing life.
He didn’t expect that shortly after he arrived, the dean of the music college, Fang Jing, found him again.
This time seeing Chu Chen, Fang Jing didn’t have the haughtiness he had before.
Previous matters made Fang Jing wary of underestimating Chu Chen.
"Mr. Chu, I have a small request, not sure if it’s proper to say?"
Speaking to Chu Chen, Fang Jing was extremely polite and amiable, without a trace of an authoritative aura.
In the office, hearing Fang Jing speak so gently, several others were surprised.
Who on earth was this new Professor Chu that made the proud dean so courteous?
"Dean Fang, please go ahead."
"Here’s the thing, the principal has notified that for external promotion, each college must shoot a promotional video."
"I would like to invite Mr. Chu to participate in the filming."
Dean Fang spoke up.
Among the colleges at Villei International University, there was a subtle competition; each wanted to make the best video to outshine others!
"Uh?"
Chu Chen was slightly puzzled, asking,
"Why choose me?"
"Because you are good-looking."
Fang Jing explained,
"By then, you only need to make a brief appearance, nothing else is required."
Under Fang Jing’s enthusiastic invitation, Chu Chen agreed.
"Alright, but don’t take up too much of my time."
No choice, being handsome was troublesome.
In the three-minute promotional video, Chu Chen appeared for a few seconds.
To test the effect, the promotional videos of the various colleges of Villei International University were first spread campus-wide.
To ensure high viewership for the filming of this promotional video, crushing the opposition.
The colleges of Villei International University each brought out their unique tricks.
Some colleges roped in a large group of beautiful students, others invited successful alumni, and some were so well-funded, they directly hired several celebrities.
An unspoken competition for viewership of the college promotional videos unfolded.
