Chapter 401: Chapter 401: Ah, Caught by Boss Qiao Qiao

Because Chen Yan found that as his career developed faster and faster, his emotional life became richer and richer. He needed more and more special items.

For instance, in his career, he needed the quota of the "Strong Buy Card."

Now, he was faced with so many good companies with low valuations. He had idle cash, so it was only sensible to buy up more shares while their valuations were relatively low.

However, the quota for the "Strong Buy Card" was 1 billion and required 15 happiness points.

And for his personal life, he needed "Constitution Potion," which cost 6 happiness points.

After all, having just included Brother Ying into his harem, Chen Yan had to... protect himself a bit.

Even if he couldn’t beat Brother Ying, he would still need to be able to run away if something happened!

Chen Yan felt that his goals were very modest.

For example, the all-powerful "Professional Talent Potion," worth 4 happiness points.

The potency of this potion had been fully demonstrated on Lu Man. Someone with no talent like her had experienced a dramatic improvement in her acting skills after drinking this potion.

This was proof enough of the potion’s price.

However, having only drunk seven to eight bottles of it, Lu Man was still far from the Best Actress-level performance she dreamt of.

Chen Yan still needed to worry about her progression.

For example, "Xiao Ha’s Instant Camera," which cost 0.2 happiness points (5 pictures per use).

No need to mention that...

So, just with these four items, Chen Yan realized that his monthly quota of happiness points was no longer sufficient.

Right now, he really wanted to shout: Can I get a few more wings! I feel like three wings just don’t match!!

After considering and analyzing, Chen Yan looked at the four items in the shop and sighed softly.

No matter how much he tried to avoid it, a choice still had to be made.

Chen Yan hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to buy two bottles of Constitution Potion, one Strong Buy Card, and five Instant Film pictures.

There was a reason for this particular purchase.

Buying Instant Film was easy to understand.

After all, Chen Yan had been using a lot of film lately and needed to replenish his stock.

And the Constitution Potion, because, deep down, Chen Yan still felt that improving his physical constitution was essential.

Not to mention, just the idea of feeling strong invigorated him.

Plus... he’d finally decided to formally accept Zhao Ying, so it was necessary to increase his ability to protect himself.

And finally, buying the Strong Buy Card was a crucial part of Chen Yan’s career strategy—Headline Technology.

Though Chen Yan didn’t yet have the ambition to control this potential internet giant, he hoped to acquire a significant number of shares while it was still weak.

So he planned to use the card on Zhang Yiming right after buying it, purchasing another 1 billion worth of shares in Headline Company.

Based on Headline’s current valuation, Chen Yan estimated that he could gain another 10% in shares.

And that wasn’t all. After buying these three items, Chen Yan still had 22 happiness points left this month.

He planned to purchase another Strong Buy Card when it refreshed next time, and use it to buy 1 billion worth of shares from the VC firms that had invested in Headline Technology.

If his plan succeeded,

Chen Yan would hold 30% of Headline Technology while it was still in its infancy.

In three to five years, when Headline Technology’s market value breaks one trillion, those shares will turn into hundreds of billions, multiplying hundreds of times over!

Since becoming wealthier, Chen Yan had come to realize that

money isn’t everything. Once you have money, you’ll see, it’s easy to lose some of the most common things in life, like troubles.

So, making more money, to improve his life and those around him, and to fulfill his own dreams, had become Chen Yan’s most important goal moving forward.

After buying the items, Chen Yan placed the "Strong Buy Card" and the "Instant Film" carefully in his safe.

Then, without hesitation, he drank the two bottles of Constitution Potion one after the other.

Having consumed the potions, he felt like he was immersed in hot water, all his pores opened, and steam rose from his body.

Maybe because he drank two potions at once, his reaction was much more intense than before.

But since he’d grown stronger, he didn’t feel discomfort. Rather, he luxuriated in the indescribable pleasure.

While enjoying, Chen Yan didn’t idle. He took off his shirt and started to exercise according to the methods taught to him by Zhao Ying.

It had to be said that Zhao Ying’s master really knew his stuff, and with these exercises, Chen Yan felt as though his body absorbed the potion’s effectiveness even more.

Fifteen minutes later, as the effects of the potion slowly faded, Chen Yan was drenched in sweat.

He grabbed a towel from the chair and wiped his body down, then began to examine his physical changes.

If he had been on the level of a professional athlete before, Chen Yan now had the physique and aura of a top-level athlete.

With a slight flex, his muscles tensed sharply and defined. He looked at himself in the mirror, and his physique could make a woman drool.

But when he relaxed, although his muscles remained outlined, he didn’t appear strangely muscular.

It was a kind of genuine human aesthetic.

And that wasn’t all. Chen Yan clenched his fist, feeling as though his body was brimming with unstoppable strength. With one punch, he heard a dull "bang," and his wooden coffee table shattered.

Though Chen Yan’s fist hurt, he was genuinely elated.

Because... he felt like he was slowly gaining Brother Ying’s vigor.

Chen Yan always thought that if he continued to enhance his constitution with the potion, one day, one punch to Brother Ying would send him straight to his knees, begging Brother Ying not to cause any trouble.

"Ha ha ha. The strength ceiling will be mine one day!" After basking in his delight, Chen Yan stretched out his hand, abruptly tearing his pants worth over a thousand dollars, and headed to the bathroom for a shower, bare as the day he was born.

After the bath, Chen Yan climbed into bed, checked the time.

It was already 9 p.m.

Pondering a bit, he wasn’t sleepy yet, so he took out his phone and began to read Yang Rou’s novel.

Perhaps taking Chen Yan’s advice, recently, Yang Rou’s novel had plenty of spicy scenes, and the abundance satisfied Chen Yan, who was utterly engrossed.

He wasn’t sure how long he read, but suddenly his phone chimed with a "ding-dong~."

A WeChat message.

Chen Yan glanced at the sender. It was Yu Qiao Qiao.

Because it was Boss Qiao Qiao, even though he was engrossed in the novel, he still opened it to see.

Yu Qiao Qiao, [Chen Yan, are you asleep?]

Chen Yan replied, [Not yet. What’s up?]

Yu Qiao Qiao seemed somewhat happy. Seeing Chen Yan say he wasn’t asleep, she sent several voice messages in rapid succession.

Looking at the voice messages that varied from the shortest at ten seconds to the longest at fifty-nine seconds, Chen Yan’s face fell.

He clicked and listened to one.

Yu Qiao Qiao said, "Chen Yan, guess what~ Sister Nuan Nuan visited our school for a lecture today."

"And it seems like she’s doing well. We’re still on good terms..."

"She..."

Chen Yan listened to the first half and found it was just Yu Qiao Qiao sharing some fun stories about starting school, nothing significant.

Eager to read his novel, Chen Yan replied after a moment’s thought, [Qiao Qiao... I’m kinda sleepy. Wanna go to sleep. Can we... talk tomorrow instead?]

Seeing Chen Yan’s reply, Yu Qiao Qiao was silent for a while.

Shortly after, she sent a message, [Okay~ If you’re free tomorrow, reach out to me.]

Accompanying the message was a cute goodnight emoticon from Yu Qiao Qiao.

After seeing it, Chen Yan felt a warm sensation and replied, [Goodnight.]

And then... he switched back to his novel with renewed focus.

Yang Rou’s updates had been quite frequent during this period, so Chen Yan read until 11 p.m. before finishing all the new Chapters.

After reading the updates, feeling refreshed, Chen Yan went to the bathroom and then started browsing his WeChat Moments.

While scrolling, he saw that Lu Man had just posted a new Moment.

["Soul Suppressing," a web series for our Sunrise Project, is the second installment. I also made a cameo with quite a few scenes. The series is expected to premiere on QiYi Fruit Video next month. I hope for everyone’s support!]

Upon seeing little fairy Lu Man’s post, Chen Yan politely gave it a like.

But as he was about to continue scrolling, he suddenly noticed a notification in his Moments.

He clicked to see... Yu Qiao Qiao had also liked the post...
