Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1338: Chapter 1338: The Real and Fake Heiress (44)

”I don’t mind.”

Shu Juan grumpily put her down: ”Do you have that thing in your backpack?”

”No.”

”I’ll go buy it for you, you clean up first.”

Shu Juan quickly closed the door and left.

Shu Juan went downstairs to buy the item, and the convenience store had several kinds.

However, Shu Juan thought that with Chuzheng’s style of even a pen costing thousands, she probably wouldn’t use these.

He couldn’t understand them and didn’t dare to look closely, so he grabbed a random package for emergencies.

The shopkeeper curiously sized up Shu Juan.

No wonder, Shu Juan’s looks were really hard to ignore.

”Buying this for your girlfriend?”

”Yes.” Shu Juan scanned the code to pay.

The shopkeeper cheerfully packed it in a black bag for him, sighing, ”Men nowadays really need to take more care of their wives.”

Shu Juan responded and quickly left the store.

After he walked a distance, Shu Juan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

For a guy to buy this kind of stuff, the psychological pressure is huge.

Shu Juan returned home, knocked on the door, and handed it to Chuzheng: ”Use this for emergencies.”

Chuzheng changed and came out, rummaging through the wardrobe for one of Shu Juan’s shirts to wear.

The shirt was a bit long, just enough to cover her thighs.

Her legs were fair and slender.

Shu Juan caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye and his eyes slightly narrowed.

Before Shu Juan could see everything, Chuzheng pulled on a pair of shorts.

Shu Juan: ”...”

Shu Juan looked at her wearing his clothes, the oversized shirt and shorts making her look like a child sneaking into adult clothes.

Shu Juan chuckled, holding a changed bedsheet, walked over to Chuzheng, and gently pinched her earlobe: ”Hey kiddo.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

Kiddo, my ass!

Chuzheng slapped his hand away, left the room, and went to the living room.

Shu Juan let out a low laugh and casually picked up the nightgown she left on a chair and took it inside.

Shu Juan first cleaned the stained areas and then put them in the washing machine.

When he was done, he came out and saw Chuzheng sitting on the sofa, and asked her, ”Does your stomach hurt?”

Chuzheng retorted, ”Why should it hurt?”

Shu Juan: ”Don’t girls usually have stomachaches during those days?”

Chuzheng: ”I don’t.”

Shu Juan: ”...”

Even though Chuzheng said she wasn’t in pain, Shu Juan still followed the online advice and made her some ginger red tea.

Shu Juan watched her finish drinking, checked the time, and asked, ”Aren’t you going to school?”

”It’s not good to go out when you’re bleeding,” Chuzheng confidently said, ”I took a leave.”

Shu Juan: ”...”

-

In the first semester of Chuzheng’s senior year, she heard that the authorities had taken down a significant underground network.

She hadn’t looked into it closely, but she had previously scanned through some content, and it was clearly the dark web that had been sold previously.

She didn’t know why it suddenly got exposed and seized in one go.

Soon after this incident, Chuzheng saw Tian Zhi again.

Tian Zhi came to find Shu Juan, but Shu Juan didn’t want to see him and was refusing him at the door.

Chuzheng appeared with her schoolbag, and Tian Zhi was slightly stunned. Considering Chuzheng and Shu Juan’s close relationship, he immediately called out to her.

”Miss Yan.”

Chuzheng glanced at him: ”What do you want?”

”Oh, I’m here to thank Shu Juan,” Tian Zhi said, ”and to bring him something.”

Thank him with a Good Person Card?

He used to wish he could turn Shu Juan in, so what was there to thank now?

”Here, please hand this over to Miss Yan.” Tian Zhi handed a box to Chuzheng.

After giving the box to Chuzheng, Tian Zhi left.

Chuzheng scrutinized the box for a bit, didn’t open it, and placed it in front of Shu Juan when she got inside.

”Tian Zhi gave you this.”

”You ran into him?”

”Yes.” Chuzheng paused and asked, ”He said he came to thank you. What for?”

”I meddled with the dark web,” Shu Juan didn’t hide anything from Chuzheng.

He originally intended to use the dark web to lure out the people behind it and finally take them down in one fell swoop.

Of course, this was dangerous, and he could die.

The plan was only halfway implemented when Chuzheng made it all happen at once.

The dark web, which he had tampered with, would have been exposed eventually, and now it had been taken down entirely.

Chuzheng patted Shu Juan on the shoulder and sat down on the other side. Shu Juan stared at that box, not opening it for a long time.

”Aren’t you going to open it and take a look?”

”No.” It should be his father’s relic... Shu Juan put the box away, ”What do you want for dinner?”

Chuzheng immediately replied, ”You.”

Shu Juan: ”...”

How strong must his self-control be to remain pure-hearted until now?

”Study hard, do your homework.”

”You’re my homework, too.”

Chuzheng mumbled softly, and Shu Juan couldn’t hear clearly: ”What did you say?”

Chuzheng straightened her little face and said earnestly: ”Doing homework.”

Shu Juan looked at her suspiciously twice: ”Write well, I’ll make you dinner.”

Chuzheng took a pen, writing stroke by stroke, and responded casually.

-

Chuzheng arranged a store for Mr. and Mrs. Yan. It wasn’t large, but it provided enough for them to live comfortably without working too hard.

Initially, Mr. and Mrs. Yan didn’t adapt well.

But after a period of supervision by Chuzheng in the store, the two had to slowly get used to it.

”Xiao Shu.”

Shu Juan was called by Father Yan.

”Uncle.” Shu Juan came in from outside, taking off his hat: ”Is something the matter?”

Father Yan: ”Are you going to Nannan’s school?”

”Yes, to pick her up after school.”

”There’s a parent-teacher meeting today...” Father Yan hesitated, ”If we go, we’re afraid we’ll embarrass her. Can you go for us?”

”Uncle, that’s not really appropriate...”

What boyfriend attends a parent-teacher meeting?

Besides, he felt that Chuzheng wasn’t ashamed of them.

Even though her attitude was cold, there was no hint of disdain.

Father Yan insisted that Shu Juan go, and Shu Juan, unable to refuse, left to call Chuzheng.

After listening, Chuzheng hung up, only to call back a few minutes later: ”You should go.”

Shu Juan: ”...”

”What should I say?”

”Boyfriend.” What else could he say? Plan to pretend to be my dad?

Shu Juan’s mouth twitched: ”... What are you thinking!”

”They all know you’re my boyfriend,” Chuzheng said. ”What else do you want to say?”

”...”

Can’t he hire someone to go in his place?

Shu Juan braved it out, a young man amidst a roomful of middle-aged people, looking so notably good-looking that the parents were inevitably curious.

The parent at the next table glanced at the name on the table, curiously asking: ”Who are you to Yan Chuzheng?”

”...Her brother.” Shu Juan didn’t dare to say boyfriend.

”Oh, not bad, not bad, young man, do you have a girlfriend?” That stance looked like if he said no, they would introduce one to him immediately.

”I do.”

The arrival of the class teacher rescued Shu Juan.

This parent-teacher meeting mainly discussed matters concerning the college entrance examination.

After much difficulty, the meeting ended, and Shu Juan was about to leave when the class teacher called him.

”You’re Yan Chuzheng’s boyfriend, right?”

Shu Juan’s scalp tingled: ”Yes.”

How did even the class teacher know?

However, the class teacher wasn’t there to find fault but to discuss Chuzheng’s issues: ”Her grades are stable, but she works slowly...”

Shu Juan knew that Chuzheng wrote slowly, but her writing was beautiful.

”If she continues like this during the college entrance exam, she’ll lose many marks,” the class teacher babbled on: ”I’ve talked to her several times, but she doesn’t seem to care much. You’re her boyfriend, you should talk to her.”

”Okay...” But saying so to her won’t help much either.
