Rich Parents Found Me After I Got a Tycoon System? Yeah, I'm Not Interested

"It’s fine. She’s her, and you’re you. I won’t take my anger out on someone innocent."

Yun Zijin, of course, knew that this had nothing to do with Su Mengyao. Everything was Yang Jiaqian’s own fault.

Besides, the person had already been kicked out, so Yun Zijin didn’t want to keep bringing her up.

She was just an irrelevant person, not worth worrying about.

"Sister Yun, you’re so magnanimous! To make it up to you, I’ve decided to splurge on a gift for you. Are you free tomorrow? Let’s go shopping together!"

Su Mengyao seized the opportunity to invite her shopping.

"Tomorrow? I don’t have a problem with that, but are you sure you’ll be able to get up?"

There was no telling when this birthday party would end. Once a group of young people got fired up, the party could easily turn into a rave.

And if they got in the mood and had a few drinks, they definitely wouldn’t wake up until late the next morning.

Su Mengyao was speechless.

She hadn’t considered that.

"It’s okay! If tomorrow doesn’t work, we can go the day after. Anyway, I haven’t gotten a job since I graduated, so I have plenty of free time!"

She didn’t have much, but she had money and time.

’To be honest,’ Yun Zijin thought, ’I have plenty of free time too.’

"That works. If you haven’t changed your mind by the day after tomorrow, you can call me to pick a place."

This would be Yun Zijin’s first time going shopping with a young lady from one of Dijing’s great families. She wondered how a rich girl’s shopping trip differed from that of an ordinary person like herself.

"No problem! It’s time to open presents over there. Should we go take a look?"

In their circle, the birthday parties of the younger generation always included a segment for opening gifts.

As guests arrived, they would place their gifts on a designated table. When it was time, the birthday boy or girl would pick a few gifts and unwrap them on the spot.

It was just like opening a blind box; you might get a plain, ordinary little gift, or you might get a surprise worth millions.

This was Yun Zijin’s first time at such a birthday party, and she hadn’t expected a gift-opening segment.

She had just told Zero One to casually place her gift on the table, and now she had no idea where it had ended up in the pile.

Su Mengyao pulled Yun Zijin over to the crowded area. When Sheng Yang saw Yun Zijin approaching, he immediately had people make room for her. Su Mengyao, benefiting from Yun Zijin’s status, also got a spot in the front row.

Wu Zicheng stood beside the mountain-like pile of presents. He circled it for a while before picking out a very large gift box and placing it on an empty table nearby.

Wu Zicheng tore open the gift violently, ripping the wrapping paper to shreds. From inside the box, he pulled out a plush toy of a blue, chubby character that was half his height.

Wu Zicheng was speechless.

The crowd instantly burst into laughter. Wu Zicheng hadn’t expected to receive a plush toy of the blue, chubby character, especially since he had already graduated from college.

You had to admit, whoever gave this gift still had a childlike heart.

"This... is pretty great! They knew I liked the blue, chubby character when I was a kid and are wishing me to stay young at heart. That’s great."

Wu Zicheng set the plush toy aside and went back to pick another gift box.

This time, he didn’t go for a big one. He walked over to the smaller gift boxes and picked one that was about 1000 cubic centimeters in size.

He ripped it open with the same brute force, quickly revealing a watch inside.

"A Blue Water Ghost!"

Someone in the know recognized it at once.

The Rolex "Blue Water Ghost." Its case featured the classic elements of the Rolex Submariner series, but most importantly, it had a stunning blue dial. The traditional Rolex Oyster case was perfectly showcased in this model.

The price wasn’t exorbitant, but this gift went straight to Wu Zicheng’s heart.

He was personally a big fan of watches and had no fewer than twenty of them displayed in his walk-in closet.

However, the Blue Water Ghost happened to be a model he didn’t own, so it seemed the gift-giver had put some real thought into it.

Seeing this gift, Yun Zijin felt a bit relieved that she had decided against giving a watch and chosen something else instead.

Yun Zijin’s gift box was also very small. She wondered if Wu Zicheng would happen to pick it.

"That Blue Water Ghost is not bad, but my gift is just as good!"

Su Mengyao commented casually upon seeing Wu Zicheng unwrap the Blue Water Ghost, not forgetting to praise her own gift.

"From the sound of it, your gift is no worse than the Blue Water Ghost? Tell us, what did you get him?"

A man had appeared next to Su Mengyao at some point. His hair was so slicked back with gel that a fly could do the splits on it.

When Su Mengyao turned, the sight nearly poisoned her eyes. She quickly looked away, turning toward Sheng Yang and Yun Zijin to cleanse her palate.

’Who on earth did Wu Zicheng invite?’ she thought. ’How could someone so bizarre show up here?’

"Hey beautiful, I’m talking to you. It’s rude not to answer."

’My politeness is selective,’ Su Mengyao thought, ’and I can’t quite extend it to you.’

"You’re not talking. Are you just bluffing? Is your gift actually not as good as this Blue Water Ghost?"

Su Mengyao really wanted to escape.

"Can you please shut up! Do you have any idea how annoying you are? What does my gift have to do with you? You keep asking and asking, but even if I told you, it’s not like I’m going to give it to you!"

Su Mengyao hadn’t wanted to deal with him, but the man was chirping like a sparrow, annoying her to death.

Yun Zijin and Sheng Yang also noticed what was happening with Su Mengyao. They were both a little speechless when they saw the greasy guy next to her.

’Why do we keep running into such weirdos today?’

"Su Mengyao, switch places with me."

Sheng Yang couldn’t stand watching anymore. Plus, Yun Zijin was giving him a look, so he suggested they switch spots.

Su Mengyao’s eyes instantly sparkled. ’Was Sheng Yang playing the hero and saving the damsel in distress?’

"O... Okay!"

Su Mengyao felt like her brain had stopped working. Why did her heart feel so warm and sweet?

Sheng Yang was completely unaware of Su Mengyao’s love-struck state. He just pushed her into his spot, walked around Yun Zijin, and took Su Mengyao’s place.

"Second... Second Young Master Sheng."

Sheng Yang’s reputation was well-known throughout all of Dijing. The greasy guy’s demeanor did a complete one-eighty when facing Sheng Yang compared to Su Mengyao.

Seeing the greasy guy’s attitude change as fast as flipping through a book, Su Mengyao rolled her eyes so hard they nearly flew out of her head.

’Wow, just wow. So we’re doing double standards now, are we?’

’Did he get too full of himself, or did he think my Su Family couldn’t handle him anymore?’

"Don’t be angry. Wu Zicheng is already on the last gift."

However, just then, Yun Zijin saw a familiar-looking gift box, and a sudden sense of foreboding washed over her.

"The wrapping on this one looks pretty unique. For the last gift, how about I open this one?"

The box Wu Zicheng picked up was, of all things, Yun Zijin’s gift.

’It can’t be such a coincidence, can it?’ Yun Zijin thought.

In reality, there was nothing special about Yun Zijin’s gift box itself. It was just that when it was being wrapped, Ling Qi had for some reason chosen red-and-green wrapping paper. No matter where it was, you could spot it at a glance, like it was the main character of the gift pile.

And sure enough, Wu Zicheng’s demonic claws finally reached for the gift box Yun Zijin had placed there.

The gift box was about the size of an adult man’s fist.

Wu Zicheng was already unwrapping the gift.

Soon, the outer wrapping paper was torn to shreds, revealing a branded gift box inside.
