Que Chen

Lu Fan did not know what his mother was thinking.

After they had breakfast, he left the cleaning to his mother and set out for school.

Were it in the past, he would have gone late to avoid meeting any unpleasant people, however, the current Lu Fan did not put those nobodies in his eye.

To him, they were just a source of excitement.

Face-slapping had always been on his to-do list. It was just that he previously had no avenue or even qualifications to do so.

His only merit previously was his somewhat good looks.

Everything else was average.

He hailed a taxi after walking a distance from home and headed straight for school.

His house was rather far from school.

He previously had to take a train, then a bus, and had to walk a distance before he arrived at school.

Now, he was not short on money. With the stock trading app, he raked in huge sums of money every second.

He was rich and would grow richer by the day.

The app made several billions of blue dollars per day and distributed them to the eight offices on a need basis.

The blue dollar was a common currency on the blue planet.

In the past, there were many different currencies, but with the appearance of cryptocurrency, the crime rate, especially cybercrime, and fraud, skyrocketed.

It was so severe that some countries' economies collapsed.

The major countries saw this as an opportunity to level the playing field thus they directly established a common currency.

Although they had the same currency, the purchasing power was different.

A house in Hua was ten times more expensive than in country R.

However, food and clothing were cheaper.

Thus, the superpowers started competing on who had the best living conditions.

Earning a dollar had become more difficult and the population kept growing, giving rise to many small currencies within the countries to best keep up and avoid disaster.

However, the blue dollar remained supreme and was used in international transactions and even in big companies.

It became a symbol of status.

The money that was generated by the stock trading app was used to buy various assets in prime locations and land with the best fengshui and invest in industries with the greatest prospects.

This was judged by the concentration of destiny and luck on the companies. It would also be used to buy shares of big companies worldwide.

Lu Fan on the other hand did not allow the app to touch the Hua continent.

He wanted to conquer it himself.

However, he did receive a lot of blue dollars which were put into his international bank account. This was also arranged by the app.

"That will be 56 blue pennies."

"Swipe the card. You can keep the change." Lu Fan said generously causing the driver to be endlessly grateful.

A hundred blue pennies made a dollar and vice versa.

"Why don't you take my number sir, you can call me anytime and I'll be at your service in a moment's notice." How could he let go of such a rich and generous customer?

"No need, you can just pick me up at 5: 00 pm."

After saying that, Lu Fan alighted and headed straight for the school gate.

"…ah! Who is that?"

"So handsome."

"Which class is he from?"

"Look at his uniform, he must be rich."

Lu Fan knew that his charm had increased but he did not expect to get such a huge reaction.

Those looks he got from the girls scared him.

He decided to ignore the boys who were looking at him in envy.

"If it isn't Lu Fan. You even came by taxi. Did your parents get a raise or did you win a draw?"

Lu Fan looked at the source of the voice that was filled with unconcealed hostility and hatred.

He recognized him immediately.

It was Que Chen.

Given that they almost grew up together, they should have been best of friends. However, love made them enemies.

Que Chen had fallen for his own sister and he knew his love was doomed.

But that did not stop him from confessing to her.

He had been holding on to the slightest glimmer of hope but was brutally rejected.

That was all right since he was somewhat prepared, but he just happened to see the chummy relationship between Lu Fan and his sister.

They even teased each other about marrying in the future.

How could he endure it?

He immediately saw Lu Fan as his enemy.

In his view, were it not for Lu Fan, Que Ling'er would have accepted his feelings. Although, he might not be wrong.

"Oh, it's younger brother Que, it's so early in the morning, why are you so loud? Don't tell me you confessed again." Lu Fan was amused by Que Chen's childlike behavior. As though his toy was taken.

"Lu Fan don't get cocky just because my sister is protecting you. I might not do anything in school, but I don't believe you can stay in school forever." Que Chen gnashed his teeth in hatred seeing Lu Fan's playful expression.

If it were the previous Lu Chen, he would have cowered just from seeing him.

But the current Lu Fan gave a sense of pressure that made his confidence waver.

The sudden change made him uneasy.

He began associating it with his sister and assumed she must have taken their relationship to the next level.

This made his hate sore and his eye turned red.

He really wanted to make Lu Fan disappear, but he couldn't.

His mother was quite close with Chen Lu after all.

He also had a special kind of feeling toward her and did not want her to hate him.

That's why, even though he made things difficult for Lu Fan in the past, he never got physical.

His verbal assaults were quite mild in the grand scheme of things.

It's just that the previous Lu Fan had a fragile ego and his confidence was nil, so the impact was bigger than he had imagined.

But that was good for him.

"Que Chen, you should concern yourself more with your studies. You don't want your mom and Ling'er to be disappointed, do you?" Lu Chen still had his playful smile, as though watching a clown perform.

Lu Fan could not understand what Que Chen was thinking.

He behaved like those protagonists from a poor attempt at a harem genre.

He thought all girls should belong to them.

If he fancied them, he felt he should have them.

If she already belonged to another, he would just take them.

The only redeeming quality was that he did not use violence.

He slapped them with money, if that didn't work, it just meant that it was not enough.

And true to that, many have thrown themselves to him for money.

Those that were not convinced were suppressed by his family's power until they had no room left to breathe.

He was famous as one of the three young masters of Jing, the most useless one.
