Chapter 1124: Chapter 486: Every Woman Has a Dream of Marrying Into Wealth
Zhou Yuwen admits that he’s not exactly a good person and has a lot of women around him, but honestly, he can’t imagine what it would be like if Li Shiqi became his girlfriend.
In Zhou Yuwen’s impression, Li Shiqi has always been a very aloof girl, quietly striving until she astonishes everyone, like in a past life when classmates suddenly saw her on TV, dressed in a crisp suit with a confident smile, eloquently handling any situation.
The two of them are destined to be from two different worlds, and now that Li Shiqi has suddenly confessed to Zhou Yuwen, he really didn’t see it coming.
Liu Shuo couldn’t understand his thoughts.
Liu Shuo thought, “Bro, you already have so many women.”
Since Li Shiqi confessed to you, it means she doesn’t mind either.
Why refuse a woman who’s offering herself?
Zhou Yuwen ignored Liu Shuo and went to Tao Tian’s apartment after the car reached Zhonghai Garden. Originally, Zhou Yuwen had bought one apartment each for Tao Tian and Qu Jing, but after they reconciled, they mostly lived together, leaving Qu Jing’s apartment vacant.
Qu Jing sought Zhou Yuwen’s opinion on renting out the apartment.
Zhou Yuwen didn’t mind. He certainly didn’t lack money, but he wanted these girls to have something to do. Zhou Yuwen owned six apartments in Zhonghai Garden; two had been occupied by bodyguards, but after arranging a dormitory for them, those two apartments also became vacant.
So, he simply handed them over to Tao Tian and Qu Jing to manage, letting them distribute the rental income as they saw fit. Renting one apartment for two thousand meant five would bring in over ten thousand.
These two girls hadn’t even graduated from college yet; their cosmetics and such were bought by Zhou Yuwen, so a four thousand monthly salary was sufficient, and they never asked Zhou Yuwen for anything else.
The premise, however, was that Zhou Yuwen had to satisfy their material needs and be able to provide money when necessary; otherwise, these girls wouldn’t be so dedicated to following Zhou Yuwen.
It was only three in the afternoon, and the sun hadn’t set yet. Tao Tian and Qu Jing were likely still at work, so Zhou Yuwen planned to take a nap at their place and have dinner when they got home.
He punched in the code to unlock the door.
Looking up, he saw a somewhat flustered Minmin.
In the living room of Qu Jing and Tao Tian’s residence, there’s a full-length mirror where they typically try on clothes when they’re free. Minmin was standing by the mirror, appearing as if she was trying on clothes.
From top to bottom, she was only wearing a black bra and matching panties.
She was holding a black undershirt that Zhou Yuwen had bought for Qu Jing, imported, costing around two hundred dollars at the time.
Minmin was using the shirt to cover her chest, and upon seeing Zhou Yuwen, her face went pale, as if she’d been caught doing something wrong.
Zhou Yuwen glanced at Minmin a couple of times; her figure was somewhat similar to Qu Jing’s, but now seeing her in just two pieces of clothing, he noticed Minmin was slightly more voluptuous than Qu Jing.
Although she used the undershirt to cover her upper body, part of her figure still peeked out, and she stood on tiptoe.
Zhou Yuwen observed for a while before asking, “What are you doing here?”
This was Zhou Yuwen’s house, and with the owner not present, it was only natural for him to question a stranger trying on someone else’s clothes.
Minmin made a few symbolic attempts to cover with the undershirt, but recognized it as Zhou Yuwen and relaxed a bit, although her guilty conscience made her stammer somewhat.
She said, “I, I…”
It turned out Minmin had just been let go by her company.
To be precise, she was fired.
The receptionist job was already prone to turnover, lacking any core value, and if a company had issues and needed downsizing, the first to go would always be the receptionist.
Also, Minmin had a bit of a difficult personality—not that she didn’t care about money, but she wasn’t interested in just any man, having pretty high standards. She had been a receptionist for half a year; had she been willing to indulge some of the potbellied executives, she might have stayed.
The problem was, Minmin wouldn’t do that.
So, being let go was inevitable.
Unemployed, the small apartment she rented next to the company lost its value.
With no income, spending a thousand a month on rent was unnecessary.
She figured she’d crash at Tao Tian and Qu Jing’s for a couple of days; after all, as roommates, they wouldn’t leave her hanging, right?
Besides, Minmin was the one who stood by Tao Tian in her toughest times, surely Tao Tian wouldn’t refuse to help.
So Minmin moved in.
Tao Tian and Qu Jing went to work every day, while Minmin, now an idle member of society, just lazed around the house.
Most women have a pronounced trait of laziness; if they can lounge around, they’ll never consider going to work.
Just like Minmin now, she hadn’t even thought of finding another job, content to idle away the day.
During her stay at Tao Tian’s, her food and accommodation were on Tao Tian, giving her a glimpse of a different life.
