No one refuses the opportunity to make more money, especially those who also want to improve their skills and capabilities along the way. Ye Chen considered playing around with two cosmetic factories; it didn't seem overly interesting on its own, but it was practical. As long as Ye Chen genuinely established these two cosmetic factories, it could only mean one thing: the two cosmetics formulas from the future were very powerful and could bring huge wealth to him. Of course, there was a prerequisite for this: Ye Chen had to confirm that the products were effective and easy to use. Although the two formulas came from the system, and Ye Chen believed in the system's capabilities, the real effect still depended on the actual results. If there were any defects, Ye Chen would rather give up on them. However, if the effect was good, with no side effects and no defects, Ye Chen would naturally proceed directly. These days, it was said that women's and children's money was the easiest to earn. To have gold and silver within reach and not take it—that would be nonsensical.
The Bugatti Veyron sped along, and after ten minutes, it stopped downstairs at the office building where Li Kexin's company was located.
"Where's Li Kexin? Didn't I tell her to come downstairs?"
Ye Chen looked left and right but didn't see Li Kexin, so he picked up his phone and called her. After five full rings, the phone finally connected.
"Ye Chen, wait for me. I'm in a meeting right now; it'll be over soon."
Li Kexin's voice was very low. Ye Chen, noticing this, looked up at the tall office building and said,
"Alright, I'll find a place to eat first. Let me know when you're done."
"Okay."
When Ye Chen heard this, he hung up the phone and looked around. He didn't see any small restaurants, though McDonald's and KFC were nearby. As for a larger, more decent restaurant, he couldn't find one immediately.
"No way, this area doesn't even have a proper restaurant?"
Ye Chen thought about it with some doubt, then took out his mobile phone and searched. He soon found an internet-famous restaurant that specialized in steak. With the idea of giving it a try, Ye Chen drove to this online celebrity hotspot.
It had to be said, there were indeed many people eating there. The layout of the store was quite pleasant, though given the limited area, it was impossible to achieve a truly high-end atmosphere. When Ye Chen arrived, he didn't think there were too many people, so he found a seat by the window and sat down. He ordered, waited for his meal, and twenty minutes later, his filet mignon was served. After Ye Chen took a bite, he felt it was okay; although not as good as the food at the Four Seasons Hotel, it was still authentic and tasted good.
Not long after, Ye Chen's phone rang. He picked it up and saw it wasn't Li Kexin's call, but a harassing telemarketing call; his face immediately turned black.
"What's the matter with these people? Are they bored or something?"
Hanging up the phone, Ye Chen continued to eat. As time passed, more and more customers entered the store. It didn't take long for Ye Chen to notice something was wrong. It seemed that an increasing number of girls were coming in, and soon there were no empty seats. But even so, more and more girls kept entering the store. When Ye Chen was halfway through his meal, he realized that the girls who had come into the store seemed to be looking at him.
"Whoa, what's the situation? Do I have flowers growing on my face?"
Ye Chen was a little puzzled, so he simply accelerated his eating speed. After finishing his meal, he got up and prepared to leave. At this moment, a girl with her hair tied in a bun blocked Ye Chen's way.
"Little brother, can we take a photo together?"
Ye Chen asked, "A group photo? Why?"
Seeming to sense Ye Chen's incomprehension, the girl with the bun hairstyle clicked on a video on her phone that only lasted a few seconds. In the video, a brand-new Bugatti Veyron was about to collide with a Volkswagen that was driving illegally. At the crucial moment, the Bugatti Veyron executed a beautiful 360-degree rotational drift, easily avoiding the Volkswagen. Then, Ye Chen's profile appeared briefly, followed by a defiant middle finger gesture. After that, the Bugatti Veyron sped away, and the video ended there. A look at the number of views: 3.9 million!
"Damn, how long has it been? There are already 3.9 million views..."
"But then again, the person who filmed this scene used a good phone; it's so clear..."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen glanced at the girl with the bun and said,
"Okay, but it's not allowed to be spread further."
"Alright, I won't spread it," the girl with the bun replied.
After speaking, she leaned over to Ye Chen excitedly and said
"Cheese!"
with a peace sign. With a click, the photo was taken.
"I want one too, I want one too! Little brother, I want to take a group photo too!"
"Me too…" Chirping shouts sounded one after another.
Ye Chen did not refuse the girls, but for any men who tried to join in, Ye Chen refused without hesitation. Taking a photo with a girl was enjoyable; taking a photo with a random man felt disgusting to him. After the impromptu photo session, Ye Chen left the internet-famous shop, and a group of girls behind him even came out to see him off. The scene was quite spectacular. Some of the bolder ones even asked Ye Chen for his WeChat directly. Ye Chen didn't give it out. If their attractiveness score wasn't above 90, how could he possibly share his WeChat?
The roar of the Bugatti Veyron bombing the street, as soon as it sounded, immediately attracted the screams of countless girls. This discovery made Ye Chen briefly experience the feeling of being an internet celebrity. However, Ye Chen was not interested in this. With the wealth system, his life was worry-free, and he could enjoy himself whenever he had nothing to do. What kind of internet celebrity did he need to be? Was he looking for trouble or exhaustion?
Driving all the way, Ye Chen arrived downstairs at Li Kexin's company again after a while. After waiting for about ten minutes, Li Kexin hurried downstairs. Today, Li Kexin was wearing blue jeans, a white down jacket, and black boots. Although it wasn't a famous brand, her S-shaped curve, which was not inferior to Du Xiaoya's, was still vividly displayed. Glancing at Li Kexin, whose figure was eye-catching as she ran, Ye Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Can't deny it, even if she sometimes speaks without thinking and has a loud voice, she's really attractive..."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen got out of the car, took out the clothes that had been washed once by the hotel from the front trunk, and handed them to Li Kexin as she approached the car.
"The clothes have been washed. If you're worried, you can wash them again."
"Are you trying to imply I'm dirty?" Li Kexin said.
She then glanced at Ye Chen, bit her lip, and asked,
"To be honest, did you see anything?"
