Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 1606: Wu Di of the Anti-Fans (37)

That child was sent to the welfare home by Mr. Chi; he’s not his child, and seeing him makes him uneasy, so Mr. Chi wouldn’t keep him.

Mr. Chi cares about his reputation, so this matter naturally won’t be publicized.

But there’s no wall in the world that doesn’t let a breeze through, and some still heard the gossip.

Mr. Chi hasn’t had an easy time lately.

Those people seem sympathetic on the surface, but who knows how they’re laughing at him behind his back.

Chuzheng has no plans to go back; inheriting is impossible, absolutely impossible in this lifetime.

Chuzheng got herself a new identity, directly registering herself under An Ji’s household.

An Ji is willing, but Grandma Chi isn’t.

Chuzheng sweet-talked Grandma Chi until finally convincing her.

Later, Mr. Chi found another woman, but she never got pregnant.

Eventually, that woman also cheated on Mr. Chi.

After that, whoever Mr. Chi found also cheated on him, it became a legendary tale in the circle.

Mr. Chi has money, but Chuzheng has more.

These women are all after money, so when Chuzheng offers a price, they’re willing.

Her original mother was driven to suicide by Mr. Chi’s infidelity; now that he’s continuously being cheated on, it’s karma, and it’s quite satisfying, perfect!

[...] Perfect my ass! Bastard really wants to pry open Missie’s head to see what’s inside.

You’re supposed to squander, but not like this!!

Can’t you spend money quietly?

Mr. Chi probably couldn’t take it anymore in the end, and finally stopped looking for women.

But not long after, Mr. Chi was diagnosed with a disease, and illness comes crashing down like a mountain, facing life and death, Mr. Chi seemed to have suddenly awakened.

Suddenly he wanted Chuzheng back to inherit the family business.

Now he’s left with Chuzheng as the only child; if she doesn’t inherit the business, who will?

Of course, Chuzheng isn’t willing.

Mr. Chi was dumbfounded; Old Madam Chi forced him to make that will back then, why is she not willing now?

"Mr. Chi, if no one inherits, why not donate it, contribute to the country." Chuzheng suggested to Mr. Chi.

Become a successor to socialism!

Mr. Chi: "..."

Mr. Chi was so mad he almost needed a doctor to save him, finally managing to keep it together.

"Your name is on the will; even if you don’t want to inherit, you have to."

Chuzheng with an indifferent face: "I can renounce my inheritance rights."

Mr. Chi: "..."

Ungrateful daughter!!

Chuzheng never saw Mr. Chi again, only visits Grandma Chi regularly.

Grandma Chi probably wanted to persuade her to inherit, but every time Chuzheng brushes it off.

Even while sick, Mr. Chi has to manage the company; though he’s wealthy, life is extremely tough.

-

Six months later.

Due to various chaotic events, An Ji’s new book preparation was finally completed and entered the promotional phase.

An Ji got the sample book and handed it directly to Chuzheng immediately.

An Ji never mentioned the new book before, not even the title; of course, she could find out if she wanted, but she never bothered.

Only now, when An Ji handed it to her, did Chuzheng find out the title – "I Have a Little Secret"

The opening sentence is: In this life, how much luck can you encounter.

It’s not large, only two hundred thousand words.

The content is about a secret love, the secrets each protagonist keeps in their heart.

Most of An Ji’s books are plot-driven; this kind of romance novel is probably the first one he’s written.

But...

It seems particularly touching.

Chuzheng flipped to the last page, where there’s a line of handwritten-like words – You are my little secret, all the joy in the rest of my life belongs to you.

An Ji leaned over from beside her and quickly wrote his name on the last page with a pen, then handed the pen to Chuzheng.

Chuzheng glanced at him: "What for?"

"Write your name." An Ji smiled sweetly: "Go on, write it."

Chuzheng: "..."

Not writing!

Childish!

-

[An Ji V: You are my little secret, I want to treasure it for a lifetime.]

The picture is of the book’s last page with both An Ji and Chuzheng’s names, two different handwriting styles, with a heart drawn in between.

[Whoa! Is this an official announcement by the great author?]

[Chuzheng’s name looks like it’s stamped on... Is the author forced to act?]

[It’s not stamped, the handwriting is different from the previous ones, clearly written.]

[The point is, who is this? Is the author in love?]

[Official announcement confirmed.]

[I knew it! Why did the author suddenly write such a book? Not fair, I’m jealous now.]

[I need all the information on this Chuzheng within a minute.]

[Whimpering, when can I get the book already.]

As soon as An Ji posted that Weibo, fans went wild.

An Ji rarely exposes his real life, but fans know he’s single.

Now he seems to have publicly announced his partner.

Who is this Chuzheng!

She took away their idol; will they still enjoy reading?

Half an hour later, ’San Ye’, hailed by fans as the ’ATM’, shared the Weibo post.

Sharing a post is just sharing; with so many fans, that’s not unusual.

The key is that—An Ji replied!

Yes, you read it right; besides during forced promotional times, An Ji actually replied to a fan’s post.

[An Ji V: I’m super cute, hug me.jpg]

This is freaky as hell!

Everyone knows San Ye and that digital big shot are suspected to be the same person.

[I can’t, I need to process this.]

[Today’s full of shocks.]

[This San Ye... seems to be that digital giant, right? So did a troll successfully rise to power?]

[I told you the digital giant secretly admired the author, look at the stuff she wrote, though she curses, every sentence is heartfelt!]

[What’s going on, suddenly see this when I come online, who is this woman! Come out and duel!]

[A duel is impossible, but if you sprinkle some cash, I’ll agree on you being together.]

[Author, my dear author, we agreed to stay single, why did you stop being single, stopping is fine, but why with a troll!!]

Under the fervent calls of fans, Chuzheng suddenly started squandering... no, launched a giveaway.

Draw a hundred winners for a luxurious world tour, give out various luxury items, and finally pick one winner for a million-dollar luxury car.

[My god! What kind of luxury giveaway package is this!]

[Pick me, pick me, I’m the sweetest.]

[Attention-seeking, if you’re wealthy, show off your money here, why not donate to impoverished areas instead.]

Comments were mixed with statements like these.

Chuzheng simply ignored them; if she could donate, would she have to go through all this trouble?

-

The draw results were announced a week later, inspiring envy and jealousy among many.

Winners were overjoyed.

The grand prize of a million-dollar luxury car went to a girl; she didn’t even realize it at the time. She found out after it went viral online that she had won the grand prize.

This is probably all the luck drained from a lifetime.

The prize distribution was swift, but people asking to exchange the prize for cash were naturally rejected without mercy.
