From Wage Slave to Tycoon

Chen Mengyan was gone.

That very evening, under Su Chen’s arrangements, Chen Mengyan boarded a plane and flew directly to Gaul.

Su Chen had high hopes for Chen Mengyan. She wasn’t just going to Gaul to study management; Su Chen had made other arrangements for her—to study at the Louis Vuitton Group headquarters!

To make this happen, Su Chen had specially gotten the phone number of the Louis Vuitton Group’s president, Arno, from Emma. He made a half-hour-long overseas call to explain Chen Mengyan’s situation and secured President Arno’s promise...

The arrangement was for Chen Mengyan to enroll in the School of Economics at the University of Paris II, and while studying there, she would also learn management at the Louis Vuitton Group.

When Chen Mengyan heard that afternoon that Su Chen was not only sending her to a top university in Gaul but also arranging for her to study at the Louis Vuitton Group’s headquarters, she was beyond ecstatic—and beyond proactive!

What was that about the study door being unlocked? No problem, no one would come in!

What was that about making too much noise? No problem, you could just put something in her mouth!

The two of them stayed in the study for a full two hours. Chen Mengyan was insatiable, like a woman possessed, and she satisfied Su Chen’s every desire.

When Su Chen finally went downstairs, he was even stumbling a little as he walked.

"DING! Your China Construction Bank savings card ending in 7890 received a deposit of 138,800,000 yuan at 8:00 AM on September 1. Your new balance is 140,435,200 yuan!"

Hearing the text message alert, Su Chen, who was still lying in bed, shot upright with a SWISH.

"It’s finally here! I was about to die waiting!"

Ever since the last system upgrade, the funds only arrived at the beginning of each month. Su Chen felt like he’d been waiting for an eternity.

’Now that the money’s here, I can get started on the things I put on hold!’

He read the message on his phone several more times before reluctantly putting it down.

’After I take Qingya to the university, I’ll go out and have a look around!’

After a quick rinse, he changed into a fresh set of clothes.

Just as he walked out of his room, he saw Su Qingya and Aunt Tang emerging from their rooms, each carrying a large cardboard box.

"What are you two moving?" Su Chen asked, puzzled.

"My computer! Bro, come help me move this!" Su Qingya put down her box and wiped the few beads of sweat from her forehead.

Su Chen frowned. "You’re planning to take your computer to the university?"

"Yeah! It’ll be more convenient for streaming!" Su Qingya said with a hint of excitement.

Hearing this, Su Chen’s expression darkened. He turned to Aunt Tang and said, "Aunt Tang, please take both of these boxes to the study."

Seeing Su Chen’s grim face, Aunt Tang quickly carried the boxes toward the study.

"Bro, what are you doing?!" Su Qingya asked nervously, seeing the dark look on his face.

She had never seen her brother look so stern.

Su Chen glanced at her and headed downstairs. Seeing this, Su Qingya hurried after him.

"Do you know what you did wrong?" Su Chen asked, sitting on the sofa and looking at Su Qingya with a deadpan expression.

Su Qingya stood to the side, nervously wringing her hands.

"Bro... are you talking about the streaming?" Su Qingya asked uncertainly.

"What else?"

"Bro, my streaming is going really well! I already have over a hundred thousand fans!" Speaking of her stream, Su Qingya seemed to regain some confidence, her voice tinged with pride.

"And?"

"I’m making money! I’ve earned twenty or thirty thousand yuan in this short time!" Su Qingya’s face was filled with pride.

"Twenty or thirty thousand? Does this family look like we’re short that kind of money?"

Su Chen shot Su Qingya an exasperated look.

"The only reason I supported you streaming in the first place was so you could gain some experience online. But I never imagined... that you’d focus all your energy on it!"

"Su Qingya, have you forgotten? Your most important task right now is to finish your university studies!"

Su Qingya lowered her head as tears instantly welled up in her eyes and streamed down her face. "Bro... I just wanted to earn some money to get Mom and Dad a better house. The old house gets so damp in the winter, and Dad’s arthritis acts up and hurts him terribly."

Su Chen walked over, pulled Su Qingya into a hug, and patted her head. "Your big brother is here. Your big brother has money!"

"Bro, I don’t want to keep spending your money all the time. Since coming to Shanghai, I’ve already spent hundreds of thousands of your yuan. I couldn’t even have dreamed of this before, and I’m scared I’ll get used to being a big spender and develop bad habits! So... I wanted to earn my own money!" Su Qingya sobbed, oblivious as a snot bubble emerged and got wiped all over Su Chen’s shirt.

"Don’t overthink it. Your main job right now is to study hard. When you graduate, you can come help your big brother manage his company! As for things at home... don’t you worry about it. Your big brother has it all covered!"

Su Chen let out a long sigh. ’Looks like I need to figure out a way to help out Second Uncle’s and Third Uncle’s families,’ he thought. ’After all, I have money now. My pockets aren’t empty like they used to be!’

"Mm... Mmm, I know, Bro!"

Su Chen looked at Su Qingya’s tear-streaked face, which resembled a messy kitten’s, and chuckled, ruffling her hair. "Go get yourself cleaned up."

Su Qingya nodded, then spotted her handiwork on Su Chen’s shirt and let out a "PFFT" of laughter.

"Bro, you should probably go change your shirt, too!"

Su Chen looked down. ’Good grief.’ The snot bubble was still stuck to his shirt.

They each went back to their rooms to tidy up and change before leaving the house with the suitcase.

Shanghai University was located in the Baoshan District. By the time Su Chen drove to the campus, the entrance was already a sea of people.

As expected of a university in Shanghai, the entrance was lined with all kinds of luxury cars. The "worst" of them were from the likes of BMW, Benz, and Audi, and Su Chen even spotted a few Rolls-Royces.

Of course, Su Chen also saw plenty of students who had come alone, trudging onto campus with a suitcase in one hand and a colorful plastic bag in the other.

"You go on ahead and register. I’ll find you after I park the car."

Su Qingya nodded, opened the car door, and headed onto the campus with her suitcase.

Several sophomore upperclassmen, both male and female, were standing at the school gate. Each held a sign with the name of a department written on it.

Su Qingya scanned the signs, found the one for the Department of Economics and Management, and walked over with her suitcase.

A male and a female student were welcoming freshmen for the department. When the male upperclassman saw Su Qingya walk up to them, his eyes lit up. "Hey, freshman," he asked enthusiastically, "are you a new student in the Department of Economics and Management?"

"Mhm. Excuse me, uh, senior... where do I go to register for the department?"

Hearing this, the male upperclassman’s eyes shifted slightly. He smiled and said, "It’s a bit complicated to explain in just a few words. How about this? I’ll take you there."

As he spoke, the male upperclassman reached out to grab the suitcase... no, that’s not right. He was reaching for the delicate, snow-white hand that was holding the suitcase.

He was only halfway there when a large hand blocked his path.

The male upperclassman frowned slightly. He was just about to lash out when he saw a man with a grim expression staring at him.

"Thanks, but we don’t need your help. Just tell us the way," said the newcomer. It was Su Chen.

"Why are you so ungrateful? If you want to go by yourselves, then fine! No good deed goes unpunished!" the male upperclassman said, his embarrassment turning to anger.

After getting clear directions, Su Chen took the suitcase and led Su Qingya further into the campus.

Once they were a good distance away, the female upperclassman, who had been silent until now, spoke up teasingly. "Tsk tsk. Some people are just so shameless. Trying to take advantage of a freshman girl and acting so high and mighty about it!"

"You—! What’s it to you? As if you’re any better. When that rich kid showed up earlier, weren’t you the one fawning all over him like a hen in heat? And what happened? He didn’t even give you the time of day!"

The two of them glared at each other, then decisively turned away.
