Milk Tea Shop, second floor.

Sitting by the window, a twist of the head offered a view of the newly built, grandiose library.

Xu Siyi, with her head lowered, was pinching the straw and mindlessly stirring the half-cup of cappuccino that remained.

“Jiang Chen, I think you should give up, Shu Rui is too difficult for you.”

The youth sitting opposite her was indifferent, as persistent and straightforward as ever.

“You promised me you would help me.”

“I will help you, but…”

Xu Siyi hesitated, stopped stirring her coffee, lifted her head, and revealed a bitter smile.

“I’ve done everything I could.

You don’t know how many good words I’ve said about you in front of Shu Rui, but they were all ineffective.

So…

you should give up.”

He who receives a benefactor’s kindness is expected to return it.

That bracelet was still on her wrist.

She naturally couldn’t just turn her back on him.

It wasn’t a matter of conscience.

But if this “lickspittle” exposed the matter, she wouldn’t be able to face anyone.

At first, she indeed wanted to use this guy to sling some mud onto Li Shuru’s reputation.

But seeing the colossal wealth Li Shuru made from live streaming, Xu Siyi had lost interest in such petty schemes and had no desire to play along anymore.

“Jiang Chen, how about I show you a clear path?”

She just wanted to get rid of this “lickspittle” as soon as possible.

“Go ahead.”

Jiang Chen nodded, appearing very open to learning.

Xu Siyi lowered her voice, “Shu Rui sets her sights too high.

If you insist on chasing after her, it’s just a waste of time and energy, or in terms of physics, ‘work done against no resistance.’ But now you have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity before you; it’s up to you whether to seize it.” free𝑤ebnovel.com

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrow, seemingly piqued with interest.

“What opportunity?”

“Undermining someone’s foundations.”

“Undermining the foundations?”

“Exactly!”

Xu Siyi nodded vigorously, released the straw, and gazed intently at the young man across from her, making a serious case, “This information is still unknown to many, but Liang Zhenlun has also started to pursue Shu Rui.”

Jiang Chen was taken aback, clearly surprised by this revelation.

“Are you serious?”

“Of course, I am!”

Xu Siyi spoke with certainty, “On Monday, he even specially invited Shu Rui to go to his birthday party, something unheard of before.

You’re a man, you should understand what that means.”

Jiang Chen fell silent, deep in thought.

“So, this is your chance to undermine his foundations.

You’ve played video games, right?

Didn’t Liang Zhenlun steal your girlfriend before?

Now is the perfect time for you to strike while he’s vulnerable.

He wants to pursue Shu Rui, doesn’t he?

You turn around and steal his ‘crystal’!”

Xu Siyi modulated her tone temptingly.

If it had been the Jiang Chen of the past, he might have been swayed, but he had already decided to “mend his ways,” so how could he possibly choose to go back?

Besides.

Pursuing Li Shuru is a matter of great importance, one that concerns his entire life and future.

Even he has no room for choice.

“I’ve already made it public that I won’t have anything to do with Ai Qian anymore.”

Jiang Chen shook his head, looking stiff and simple-minded.

“Are you stupid?”

Xu Siyi pressed urgently, “Don’t you really like her?

Compared to your own happiness, what does face matter?”

Jiang Chen still shook his head, unmoved by her words.

“What’s missed is missed.

We’re like two pieces of a broken mirror.

Even if we were put back together, it could never be as intact as before.”

Xu Siyi was startled.

This “lickspittle.”

His words held unexpected depth.

“If you’re set on thinking that way, then there’s nothing I can do…”

Jiang Chen’s gaze plainly shifted to the gold bracelet on her right wrist.

“Si Yi, have you stopped caring about me?”

“It’s not that I don’t care, it’s that I can’t!”

Xu Siyi was well aware that the other person was blatantly threatening her; she said angrily, “I’ve done everything I should have.

I’ve given you advice but you won’t listen.

What more do you want me to do?”

At that moment, an English song ringtone began to play.

“I need to take a call.”

Jiang Chen took out his mobile phone and, without avoiding Xu Siyi, answered the call while sitting in his original spot.

“Manager Chen.”

“This weekend?”

“…All right.”

After about a minute or two, Jiang Chen hung up the phone and, out of politeness, explained, “It was the boss from my part-time job, asking me to help him out this weekend.”

“You don’t need to tell me this.”

Xu Siyi said sullenly, the disdain in her heart almost showing on her face.

Sometimes, self-reliance depends on the situation.

Li Shuru’s case was what you could call self-reliance.

But this bootlicker…

Working part-time for a day, could he make two hundred yuan?

Xu Siyi didn’t want to waste any more time.

“I have to go meet Shu Rui to look at cars, I’m leaving first.”

With that, she was ready to get up and leave.

“Looking at cars?”

Jiang Chen looked up in surprise.

“Yes, looking at cars.”

Xu Siyi appeared to kindly explain, “Shu Rui is thinking about buying a car and wants us to go take a look with her.”

“Can I come along?”

Jiang Chen seemed to lack any self-awareness, looking at Xu Siyi expectantly.

“You want to come?”

She laughed.

“What for?

Do you understand cars?”

“Actually, I have always been quite interested in cars, so I did some research for a while.

I do know a bit about them.

What kind of car is she thinking of buying?

I could give her some recommendations…”

Give recommendations?

Did this bootlicker really see himself as someone important?

Xu Siyi’s smile was scornful.

“Panamera, what do you think of this car?”

Jiang Chen was taken aback as expected, as if doubting whether he had heard wrong.

“Panamera?”

“Yes, you wanted to give a recommendation, right?

Give your opinion.”

“That car, isn’t it over a million?

Isn’t that…

too expensive?”

“For you, it might be expensive, but for Shu Rui, it’s not a problem.”

Standing up, Xu Siyi towered over him, exuding a baffling sense of superiority from head to toe.

“Do you know how much Shu Rui makes in a month now?

Jiang, people shouldn’t just look up at the sky; they also need to look down at the ground.

You should know the story of Kuafu chasing the sun.

You and Shu Rui, you really are from two different worlds.”

Having said that, Xu Siyi didn’t linger, turned around, walked down the steps, and disappeared on the second floor.

Jiang Chen, who had been verbally beaten from head to toe, had no sense of defeat; he looked absent-mindedly in the direction of the stairs and, like someone losing his mind, inexplicably started to smile.

Although he didn’t know how much Li Shuru used to make from her live streams, with the money he was currently investing, supporting Li Shuru to buy a Maserati wasn’t really a problem.

But to rush out and buy such an expensive luxury car just after earning money, wasn’t that too vain?

There was no sense of risk awareness either.

But well, young people are like that, normal.

They buy what they like, and do what they want to do.

Too much consideration, that’s not youth anymore.

Jiang Chen, standing there by himself, sighed softly, unhurriedly finished his Yang Zhi Dan Lu drink, and then stood up and left.
