Tycoon: I Have an Unlimited Modifier

The beatdown upstairs was still in full swing, while the girls chattered amongst themselves.

"Huahua, are you interested in that Eldest Young Master Qi?"

The girl Skinny Monkey and his friends had thought was cold and aloof, Chen Jia, was now all smiles as she fished for information from her roommate.

"What’s this? You’ve fallen for him?"

Seeing Chen Jia ask, Tan Hua knew exactly what was on her mind.

"Yeah, I have. Or, to put it another way, who could say no to a tall, rich, and handsome guy who drives an A8?"

Chen Jia was surprisingly honest and admitted it outright.

"Well, if you like him, you should go for it. Don’t worry about my feelings."

Tan Hua was being magnanimous. She didn’t want to fall out with her roommate of four years over a guy she had just met.

"Oh, Huahua, you’re the best! I love you so much!"

Chen Jia hugged Tan Hua excitedly, the weight on her shoulders finally lifting.

With a shining example like Tan Hua in the picture, she really didn’t have the confidence to win Qi Sheng over.

"Then go for it. I’ll be your wingman."

Tan Hua smiled and glanced casually at her phone.

Unsurprisingly, it was another flood of messages asking how she was and what she was up to.

To be honest, she couldn’t even remember how these guys had added her on WeChat in the first place.

As a top-tier beauty, there were far too many men trying to pursue her.

There were even guys who drove Ferraris among her suitors.

Qi Sheng was certainly outstanding, but she was no slouch herself.

"Jiajia, we’ll help you too."

Her other two roommates also chimed in, encouraging Chen Jia.

In their dorm room, Chen Jia was the best-looking one after Tan Hua.

However, Chen Jia had dated in college.

This was perfectly normal. It would be strange for a beauty rated over 85 not to have any suitors in college.

That’s why Tan Hua’s perfect score was all the more precious.

What man wouldn’t like a girl who was still a virgin?

...

When they reached the third floor, they saw several guys in the middle of a heated game of pool.

Skinny Monkey and the others, who had cigarettes dangling from their lips, quickly stubbed them out.

Smoking might look cool in front of other guys.

But most girls couldn’t stand the smell of smoke.

"Oh, you’re playing pool?"

Now that she had her roommate’s blessing, Chen Jia started making small talk.

"Yeah. Want to play some mahjong?"

Qi Sheng smiled and nodded, pointing to a bedroom that had been converted into a mahjong room.

"That’s okay, we’ll just watch you guys play. We’ll be eating soon anyway."

Chen Jia was no stranger to pool, having gone with her boyfriend a few times back in college.

Seeing Qi Sheng stylishly sink ball after ball and quickly run the table, she couldn’t help but cheer, "Wow, you’re so good at this."

"Ahem, I’m just average."

Qi Sheng felt a little awkward at her comment.

He knew she was talking about his pool skills, of course.

But most men’s minds would subconsciously jump to... other things.

Chen Jia was far more forward than Tan Hua.

She proactively handed him the chalk and helped him chalk his cue tip.

Seeing this, anyone who didn’t know better would have mistaken her for Qi Sheng’s girlfriend.

His roommates standing nearby were dumbfounded.

’Is this the same fucking ice queen from before?’

’Why is she being so forward with Qi Sheng?’

"Damn it. With the Great Saint around, I guess we don’t stand a chance."

Skinny Monkey had been the most interested in Chen Jia.

But seeing how forward Chen Jia was with Qi Sheng, practically throwing herself at him, he was instantly heartbroken.

"Ahem, Brother Monkey, let’s be real. Even without Brother Sheng in the picture, you wouldn’t stand a chance."

As a loyal lackey, Wu Peng couldn’t resist speaking up for Qi Sheng.

"What the hell, can’t you say something nice for a change?"

Skinny Monkey was getting pissed. ’Some things are better left unsaid, alright?’

"Brother Monkey, we have to face reality. You all know I liked Liu Shan back in college, right?"

"And what happened? I simped for her for three years while she went through four different boyfriends. It was never my turn."

"So, what I’m saying is, everyone likes a beautiful girl, but you gotta know your damn limits!"

Wu Peng felt a wave of frustration wash over him as he recounted his own depressing history.

He’d said all this because he was afraid Skinny Monkey might start to resent Qi Sheng.

"You think I’m an idiot?"

Skinny Monkey rolled his eyes. "I just didn’t fucking expect she’d try to compete with Goddess of Talk for the Great Saint. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have even thought about her. Oh well, dream’s over. We should just stick to regular girls."

"Haha, you’ve got a good head on your shoulders, Brother Monkey. About those three beers you’re supposed to have tonight... I’ll drink two of them for you."

Wu Peng knew Skinny Monkey couldn’t hold his liquor, so he offered to take two of the bottles off his hands.

"No need. I’ll just use the booze to drown my sorrows."

Skinny Monkey waved his hand dismissively and walked out to the terrace for a smoke, feeling dejected.

Qi Sheng was also starting to realize that Chen Jia seemed to be interested in him.

But she was only a B-Level girl, not a perfect-score one, so he honestly couldn’t bring himself to be interested.

’Logically speaking, with an A-Level, perfect-score beauty like Tan Hua right in front of me...’

’...I’d have to be crazy to choose Chen Jia instead.’

Given Qi Sheng’s lukewarm attitude, Chen Jia started to get the hint.

’I’m not interested in you!’

She was a great beauty, after all, and she had her pride. Feeling awkward, Chen Jia walked back to her roommates.

The other girls were a little surprised to see Chen Jia get shot down.

Even though Chen Jia couldn’t compare to Tan Hua, she was still a major beauty.

From what they knew of men, very few would refuse a beauty practically throwing herself at them.

As for Tan Hua, she didn’t say a word.

But the almost imperceptible upward tilt of her lips showed her opinion of Qi Sheng had clearly improved quite a bit.

Although Qi Sheng wasn’t very experienced, he could still feel Tan Hua’s subtle glances on him.

’Until I’ve won over Tan Hua, I’m not going to be playing the field.’

’200,000 yuan a month is great and all, but if I level up, that becomes 1,000,000 a month.’

’Holy cow, an income of one million a month... What does that even mean?’

’That’s an annual income in the tens of millions!’

’Not to mention, the system also gives rewards for improving all sorts of abilities.’

’With that kind of temptation, it’d be a miracle if I even gave Chen Jia a second look.’

’If it weren’t for the system’s requirements, maybe I wouldn’t have minded having a little fun with Chen Jia.’

’But as things stand, I don’t have time to deal with her.’

After a few more games, the sore losers just threw down their cues and ran for the karaoke room downstairs.

"Those bastards, they’re completely shameless."

Qi Sheng cursed with a laugh, but could only helplessly put the cues back and re-rack the balls.

’Yeah, I’m a little obsessive-compulsive.’

When he got to the karaoke room downstairs, everyone was laughing and joking as they picked out songs.

They were no match for him at pool.

’But when it comes to singing, there’s no way we’ll lose to Qi Sheng, right?’

Back in college, whenever their dorm went for karaoke, Qi Sheng could sing off-key even when following the original artist’s track.

It was an embarrassing part of his past that could never be erased.

’Well, well. Can’t beat me at pool, so now they want to challenge my singing?’

Qi Sheng grinned.

’Ever heard of Professional Level singing?’

’So what if I used to sing off-key? What does that have to do with the me of today?’

’Do they have any idea what it means to be a professional-level singer?’
