The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 109: Chapter 103 “Dimension Reduction” (Please Subscribe)

After playing in the water until sunset, the girls finally started to get down to business.

The video footage wasn’t shot in the water; Hua Suisui no longer took the risque path but used the city backdrop at dusk instead.

Zhou Wang watched for a while without understanding, then went inside to take a shower.

By the time he was done and came out, Hua Suisui and the others had finished filming.

“Zhou Wang, we have to catch a flight, so we need to leave.”

Lin Ran then took her leave.

Zhou Wang nodded. After they changed their clothes, he erted them to the elevator.

“Do you need me to arrange a car for you?”

“No need, Yalong Real Estate has a car to send us.”

Lin Ran shook her head with a smile. She hesitated for a moment and then said, “By the way, Mr. Zhou, about the suggestion I mentioned, you really shouldnsider it. A lot of wealthy people are doing this now.”

What Lin Ran was referring to was a suggestion she’d made earlier at the pool, wondering if Zhou Wang hadnsidered opening a short video aunt.

With the rise of short videos, more and more wealthy people were stepping in.

Zhou Wang had the unique advantage needed for this field.

Thempetition in this area wasn’t fierce, as the entry barrier was high and operations were manageable, which is why Lin Ran suggested it.

“I’m notnsidering it for now, maybe later.”

Zhou Wang shook his head.

Essentially, the logic behind these aunts was “capital attracts capital,” but since Zhou Wang clearly didn’t lack money, he wasn’t very interested.

Seeing Zhou Wang’s insistence, Lin Ran didn’t push further. Before entering the elevator, Hua Suisui pursed her lips, looked at Zhou Wang, anduldn’t help but ask, “Will youme to Hang City in the future?”

“I will, actually, I might be going in a while.”

“Really?”

Hua Suisui’s eyes immediately brightened.

“Yeah, I’llntact you then.”

“Promise!”

Seeing Zhou Wang nod, Hua Suisui giggled, waved at him, and then walked into the elevator.

After sending off the three girls, Zhou Wang let out a sigh of relief. Next, he’d spend one more night with Su Yajing at the hotel, then heuld officially move.

…

On the way back to the hotel, driving a Ferrari, Zhou Wang’s phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, surprised at first, then thinking of something.

Connecting the call via Bluetooth, Zhou Wang laughed and spoke first, “Young Master Zhang, what’s yourmmand?”

On the other end, there was silence. Just when Zhou Wang thought Zhang Zhiyuan might have dialed the wrong number, Zhang Zhiyuan’s voice came softly.

“Zhou Wang, you’ve hidden from me so well!”

“If you have something to say, just say it; don’t make it sound like I broke your heart…”

Zhou Wang, feeling goosebumps, quickly responded.

“The one who acquired 10% of Wuyou Media’s shares, that was you, right?”

“Yeah, that happened. How did you know?”

Because he’d uvered the treasure from Zhang Zhiyuan, and Wuyou Media’s biggest shareholder was also named Zhang, so Zhou Wang had guessed something then, but now heuld only feign ignorance.

“The CEO of Wuyou Media is my snd uncle. How do you think I’d know?”

Zhang Zhiyuan said suspiciously, “Didn’t you do due diligence before the acquisition? Didn’t you know it was an industry my family invested in?”

“Honestly, I didn’t know. Immissioned someone else for the acquisition, didn’t expect such aincidence.”

Zhou Wang said in surprise.

“No wonder. I was wondering why the law firm responsible for the negotiation had a foreign trust background. Even if a foreignnsortium wanted in, theyuldn’tnnect with those small shareholders so quickly!”

Zhang Zhiyuan automatically rationalized it, quickly smoothing over the problem in his mind.

They had privately discussed Zhou Wang’s origins andncluded that his background was “unexaminable.”

After all, apart from Zhang Zhiyuan, the others were local Ming City people, and suddenly a mysterious snd generation appeared, one they hadn’t heard of before, leaving only one possibility—

“Dimension Reduction.”

Ding!

Just as Zhang Zhiyuan’s thoughts were swirling, Zhou Wang suddenly heard the system prompt, but he didn’t have time to check.

“Since you didn’t know it was related to my family, let’s leave it at that. Wuyou Media’s equity structure is verymplex. Although our family is a major shareholder, there are restrictions. My uncle had his eye on those small, drifting shareholders and initially planned for me to take over…”

Zhang Zhiyuan sighed, “Who would’ve thought you’d snatch it away… If my uncle hadn’t asked about someone named Zhou Wang in Ming City today, I wouldn’t have known!”

Not me, it was the treasure map!

“My bad, my bad. I really didn’t pay much attention beforehand. Otherwise, I’d have given you a heads-up.”

Zhou Wang quickly apologized, “How about this, I’ll host in auple of days, you pick the place, and I’ll treat you to a meal as an apology!”

“You said it. I’m going to feast on you once then!”

This seemed to be Zhang Zhiyuan’s real reason for calling. He laughed, “I’ll invite more people then, and we’ll have a blast!”

“OK!”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wang drove back to the hotel. It was only then he had time to check the system prompt.

[Reputation is a man’s most dashing attire.]

[Detected that the Host has initial social influence within a specific range, “Reputation Spring Water” is now activated.]

[Reputation Spring Water: The storage of Reputation Value, with an attached “Mysterious Store,” where the Host can exchange certain Reputation Value points to purchaserresponding items.]

[Reputation Value: Whether it’s the increase of industries, the expansion of effective interpersonal relationships, or positive societal rgnition, all can generate Reputation Value. The value varies with different impacts.]

[Current Reputation Value: 233 (Newbie)]

Reputation Spring Water?

Zhou Wang rubbed his chin, turning his gaze to the newly appeared section in the system interface.

In the virtual pool, bubbling spring water flowed, and beside it was a small shop-like store, dark and unclear.

Where’s my Akali?

This store’s not serious!

However, when Zhou Wang’s mind turned to it, his eyes lit up.

As the list of items in the store became visible, he saw many familiar items, like the “Azure Dragon Saber” that offers cash-back upon purchase, the “Windbreaker” that temporarily erases your presence, and the Intermediate Treasure Map that helps find better treasures…

The shop also held many items Zhou Wang had never seen, a dazzling array, each with even more extraordinary effects.

For instance, there was an item called [Chui Shi’s Soul Guiding Lamp], whichuld bring a dying person back to life.

Even though it only worked once, it seemed too unscientific…

But what tempted Zhou Wang was that many items were permanent, including “Ying’s Windbreaker.”

Uh, as a decent person, Zhou Wang didn’t plan to do anything improper, but being invisible all the time was just toool!

However, after looking at the prices of these items, Zhou Wang gave up the thought.

The cheapest item required 1000 Reputation Value points, and it seemed like the only things heuld afford were those potions priced at 250 Reputation Value each.

[Life Potion: During a duration of 24 hours, heals non-fatal bruises, acute diseases, inflammations, etc., relieves chronic pain, and slightly improves the body’snstitution afternsumption.]

[Energy Potion: In a duration of 10 snds, restores human energy, equivalent to antinuous sleep of 9 hours.]

…

Zhou Wang smacked his lips; these little potions seemed quite practical.

But he was still a bit short on Reputation Value to afford them.

This made Zhou Wang rnsider Lin Ran’s earlier proposal. After all, positive societal rgnitionuld also increase Reputation Value.

“Likes” and “followers” would likely fall into that category as well.

But he still didn’t want to show his face as an internet celebrity, so he had to think of a middle-ground solution.

Back in the presidential suite, Su Yajing, who was snuggling on the sofa binge-watching a show with a projector, greeted him sweetly, pulling Zhou Wang to sit down and started massaging his shoulders.

“Brother, you must be tired after a long day, let me help you relax~”

“Alright.”

After an afternoon of playing in the water, Zhou Wang indeed felt a bit tired and closed his eyes, letting Su Yajing work her magic.

Initially, he thought Su Yajing would just give a casual massage, but after feeling it for a moment, Zhou Wang surprisingly opened his eyes.

“Your technique’s quite professional!”

It wasn’t asmfortable as when that girl He massaged him, but Su Yajing had clearly practiced.

“I learned from my mom. I would help her when I was at home. As long as brother likes it!”

Su Yajing giggled, looking very pleased.

“Have you bought tomorrow’s train ticket? Do you really not need me to hire a car for you?”

Zhou Wang closed his eyes again, enjoying Su Yajing’s gentle hands while casually asking.

The distance from Ming City to Li City wasn’t far, about five hours by car, which was why Zhou Wang suggested it.

“No need, the high-speed train is faster. Sister Bella said Uncle Yang would drive me to the station, so, brother, just sleep in tomorrow. Don’t worry about me.”

Sonsiderate!

Zhou Wang once again marveled, thinking of the one hundred million plus he’d found last night through Su Yajing, Zhou Wang picked up his phone and transferred two hundred thousand more to her.

“There must be a lot of things to spend on back home and buy some gifts to greet Auntie for me. Don’t skimp. If you need more, just let me know.”

“Brother, you mean… I can tell mom about our relationship?”

Though the two hundred thousand made Su Yajing happy, she was morencerned about something else and asked cautiously.

“Ofurse. Why not?”

Zhou Wang smiled, “Except for not being able to marry you, I can give you anything.”

“Ah, brother, you’re the best!”

Overjoyed, Su Yajing’s massage started to deviate from its originalurse.

In the afternoon, though Hua Suisui’s intentions were unclear, Zhou Wang had already been stirred up. Now, with Su Yajing’s actions, she was also enticing Zhou Wang into playing in the water.

Though the sky hadn’tmpletely darkened, under the sunset glow, the girl pinned to the sofa was yet another form of beauty.

Thus.
