More Warm Water

It was Saturday today, so Chu Chen's beautiful neighbor Yan Luoshui came to visit him and the Ragdoll cat Baby.

"Look at Baby, he's getting so round."

Seeing Baby getting more and more chubby, Chu Chen could not help but spill.

"You think he's chubby?"

"I think Baby is still quite thin, try eating more, Baby."

She said as she started to feed Baby the dried fish.

Chu Chen felt speechless inwardly.

At this moment, Chu Chen's phone rang.

Chu Chen took the phone and found that it was his mother.

"Chen, why did you just transfer me 500,000 yuan?"

His mother's voice arose from the other side of the phone.

"Mom, I was lucky with stocks, that's what I earned."

Chu Chen could not tell her the truth, so he found an excuse.

Mom was not completely shocked, but she realized that investment was a very risky thing to do. She subconsciously knew that stocks and lotteries are basically the same thing—luck was the most important factor of all.

After Chu Chen got the system of being the richest, he had used his own contacts and easily helped his parents get better and easier positions at their companies.

Although, Chu Chen could just transfer hundreds of millions of yuan to his parents without hesitation and let them live wealthy lives.

But if he did that, Chu Chen would not be able to explain the source of the income. And his parents were down-to-earth people, so if they suddenly got this much money, they would start to worry and fuss over his well-being.

So the best method was to find his parents a very relaxing position at their companies, so they could live a leisurely life.

"All right then, I know that you're doing great."

Having heard what Chu Chen told her, his mother spoke with grafication.

"Oh yes, your aunt just set up a date for you. She's in Jiangzhou and it seems that she's gentle and pretty too."

Mother added.

"What about going on one more blind date?"

Hearing the words, Chu Chen turned speechless.

He did go on a blind date last time with a girl the neighbor set up for him, but the result turned out to be terrible.

Chu Chen truly had no intention of going on blind dates any more.

"No, please, Mom, I don't want to," Chu Chen said determinately.

"Just one more, all right? Just one last time!"

Mother did not want to give up so easily. She was expecting a grandson soon.

Hearing the words, Chu Chen had no idea how to solve the problem at this point.

"Mom, to tell you the truth, I already have a girlfriend."

In order to avoid going on a blind date, Chu Chen had to argue with a white lie.

"What?"

On the other side of the phone, Mother was incredibly astonished hearing what Chu Chen said.

In the villa, Yan Luoshui, who was playing with Baby, felt somehow a bit disappointed hearing the words.

So he already had a girlfriend?

Why was she not aware of that?

"Who is she? How is her personality? Where is she from? What do her parents do?"

Mother suddenly got interested and asked several questions.

"Well…"

Chu Chen started to consider.

Soon, Chu Chen came up with an idea.

"She is a very rich lady, running a company worth billions as its president. I learned stock skills from her!"

Chu Chen replied.

He suddenly found that it must be a very good opportunity.

In this way, he was able to find a reasonable explanation for the money he had—he received the money from his girlfriend.

That was why Chu Chen made up a girlfriend like this. As for the company worth billions, it was none other than his own Junlin Enterprise.

Chu Chen even thought about how to present the girlfriend to his mother back at home—he was going to bring his good-looking secretary Mo Yuwan.

She could pretend to be his girlfriend. After all, Mo Yuwan did look like a female president in appearance and in other ways too.

Also, Chu Chen believed that Mo Yuwan would not turn down the suggestion. After all, he was her boss. Haha.

Hearing what Chu Chen said, Yan Luoshui was completely surprised. A misunderstanding arose within her.

A very rich lady?

A company worth billions?

A president?

That was her!

So Chu Chen was telling his mother that she was his girlfriend?

Within moments, Yan Luoshui suddenly turned nervous. Her face flushed and heart throbbed.

She would have gotten very angry if the words came from someone else. But Yan Luoshui felt a bit excited when those were spoken by Chu Chen!

What did Chu Chen mean?

Was he trying to take this opportunity and to confess his feelings to her?

Yan Luoshui became even more nervous as she thought of this conjecture.

If that was the case, what was she supposed to do, was she going to say yes?

Should she say yes after Chu Chen hung up, or should she wait for a bit longer before agreeing?

Was Chu Chen trying to suggest she make a confession?

Was he trying to tell her that she could confess her feelings for him of her own accord?

If that was the case, he must have feelings for her but just felt too shy to bring it up.

Different ideas started to gush into Yan Luoshui's head.

"That sounds good, but why would such a rich president want to be with you?"

Mother asked in confusion.

"No reason, I'm good-looking."

Chu Chen shrugged and answered.

Yan Luoshui threw a sneaky look at Chu Chen hearing what he said.

Good-looking… Chu Chen did seem to get more and more good-looking, and he had a kind of air that reminded her of a top tycoon she once met before.

"All right then."

Mother was quite skeptical about it.

"Well, when you have time, bring the girl home so we can take a look at her. We may have some ideas too.

"And show those relatives that you have a wealthy lady as a girlfriend!"

Mother said, still unconvinced.

"All right."

Chu Chen was not that pleased to hear that his mother was skeptical about his appearance and charisma.

At the end of conversation, Mother kept stressing that he should take good care of himself when being alone outside.

Hanging up the phone, Chu Chen happened to see Yan Luoshui approaching him.

Yan Luoshui's face looked a bit weird.

"What's wrong?"

Chu Chen was confused. She had been looking well a minute ago.

Was she feeling unwell?

"Drink warm water, and take a good rest," Chu Chen reminded her kindly.

"Okay."

Hearing his suggestion, Yan Luoshui was not at all angry. Instead, she was very excited. Chu Chen was showing concern for her.

When a good-looking man told her to drink more warm water, he was not being dumb.

He was being warm-hearted!

"Chu Chen, I am not sure about my decision, please give me some time to think it over."

Yan Luoshui found that the whole thing happened way too fast for her to understand clearly. So she gave him a small whisper and left in a hurry.

Seeing Yan Luoshui dashing off, Chu Chen was confused. What happened?

He did not understand women's thoughts. After all, he was just an ordinary and well-behaved person.

At this point, Chu Chen received a call from Chubby.

"What? Okay, I'll be right there."

Chu Chen nodded and drove his Koenigsegg all the way to the hospital.

The night before, Chubby's dad got in a car accident. Since they were living in a tiny place with terrible medical facilities, he was transferred to a hospital in Jiangzhou.

But the operation fees had gotten so high and Chubby's family had become so desperate that Chubby had to call Chu Chen for help.
