The super rich starts with the self-discipline challenge

Chapter 199 Don’t leave
"Your roommate isn't here?"

After Zhong Yun entered the living room, he saw that the doors of both rooms were open and the lights were off. It was obvious that Meng Jiaen's roommate was not at home.

Meng Jiaen was pouring water in the kitchen and said, "She moved away."

"Moved?"

"correct."

She came out with a glass of warm water and said, "She moved in with her boyfriend."

"Oh."

Zhong Yun took the water and took a sip. The temperature was just right. He took another sip and said, "Now that you live alone, will you feel uncomfortable?"

"No. She's busy with work and has to spend time with her boyfriend. Every morning when I get up, she's already gone to work. At night, when I fall asleep, she's still not home. We barely see each other all day. Even though we live together, it's no different from living alone."

Meng Jiaen touched her stomach and said, "I'm a little hungry, let's order some takeout. How about barbecue?"

"Aren't you afraid of getting fat by eating late night snacks?"

"I'm fat, will you dislike me?"

"meeting!"

"Ah, why are you like this..."

Meng Jiaen refused and pulled his clothes to act coquettishly.

Zhong Yun said, "You still don't allow me to tell the truth."

"I don't dislike you yet. Humph."

Meng Jiaen turned her back, took out her phone and started ordering takeout, and asked, "Would you like some grilled eggplant?"

"want."

"Enoki mushrooms?"

"Two skewers please."

"corn?"

"..."

After Meng Jiaen finished ordering, she picked up the remote control and said, "Let's watch a movie."

Zhong Yun saw that she was not going to let him go, so he stopped struggling and nodded, saying, "Okay."

"I'll choose the movie."

She still remembered the embarrassing incident of falling asleep in the middle of a movie last time, all because of that movie. She wanted to pick an interesting one this time, and quickly chose "Your Name".

There haven't been any good love movies in recent years, so she could only find an animated movie to make up the number.

She asked, "Have you seen this? It's highly reviewed online."

"No."

Zhong Yun gave an answer against his will. Otherwise, if she asked him who he watched the movie with, it would be difficult to answer.

However, I watched this movie several years ago and have forgotten many details. But when I watch it again now, I don’t find it boring.

Meng Jiaen leaned next to him, took off her shoes, and put her feet on the sofa.

She was soon engrossed in the spectacle.

It wasn't until the phone rang that I remembered I had just ordered takeout.

"I'll get it."

Zhong Yun got up to get the takeout, a big bag of barbecue.

Meng Jiaen also got down from the sofa and trotted to the kitchen to get a few cans of beer.

The two of them sat at the coffee table, eating barbecue, drinking beer and watching movies, just like an ordinary couple.

Zhong Yun felt as if his heart was filled with something, warm and a little bit throbbing. Peace and joy.

This kind of little happiness was what he once longed for and hoped for.

It was also something he once had, but lost.

I thought I would never have it again.

His eyes swept across Meng Jiaen's face. She kept her eyes on the projector, absorbed in the movie, her face illuminated brightly by the light reflected from the projector.

She doesn't like spicy food, but the roasted chicken feet in her hand made her lips turn red. She opened her mouth slightly, breathed in gently, and a few beads of sweat condensed on the tip of her nose, making her look particularly cute.

She took a sip of beer in her other hand to relieve the spicy feeling, but it had no effect and she was still inhaling.

As if sensing his gaze, Meng Jiaen looked away from the projector and looked at him. As if she had misunderstood, she handed him the half-eaten roasted chicken feet in her hand.

Zhong Yun took the string of chicken feet without explaining and started eating, then turned his attention to the movie.

……

Towards the end of the movie, Meng Jiaen was completely immersed in the plot. At the end, she cried loudly and hugged his arms tightly, wetting his sleeves.

It was the first time he met a girl who actually cried while watching a movie. Seeing her nose turned red from crying, he felt even more pity for her and kept handing her tissues.

Fortunately, this movie has a happy ending. If it was a sad ending, wouldn’t she have cried even more miserably?

After a while, Meng Jiaen calmed down a little, and seemed a little embarrassed. She said, "I usually don't watch movies like this..."

"Ah."

Zhong Yun heard her voice still had a strong nasal tone, and said, "I know that watching cartoons will improve people's empathy. I used to cry when watching anime."

"Really?"

Meng Jiaen raised her head, her bloodshot eyes full of curiosity, "What anime were you watching?" "I forgot."

"Tell me..."

"I really forgot."

Zhong Yun glanced at the time and said, "It's already late, it's time to go to bed. I have to go to work tomorrow."

Meng Jiaen suddenly grabbed his hand.

"what?"

Meng Jiaen bit her lip, her face visibly reddened, and she said in a trembling voice, "Stay with me tonight."

Zhong Yun just felt his throat tighten a little and said, "Okay."

She has taken the initiative, how sad she would be if he refused.

How could I let her down on something like this?
……

In the room, only the bedside lamp was on.

Zhong Yun sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the furnishings in the room.

This was not the first time he entered her room. He did not take a close look last time, but now he finally had the chance to take a good look.

The room is decorated in a minimalist style, which looks very comfortable.

He noticed a photo frame on the bedside table, which actually contained a photo of him and Meng Jiaen. Judging from the background, it should be a scenic spot in his hometown.

“When did she take this photo?”

Zhong Yun was a little curious and took the photo frame. In the photo, he was standing on a rock, looking into the distance, with only a side profile, and Meng Jiaen was standing behind him, making faces.

I have to say, this photo captures him very well, and makes him look very handsome. Her expression is also natural and lovely.

At this time, the photo frame changed and another photo was replaced, still of him.

It turned out to be an electronic photo frame.

"How many pictures did she secretly take of me? She even put them on the bedside table."

Zhong Yun looked towards the bathroom, where he could hear the sound of water splashing.

She is taking a bath in it.

He put the photo album back, picked up a tablet on the bedside, opened it and saw that the screensaver was also a photo of them.

He had an impression of this photo, which was taken when they went out for dinner.

Zhong Yun swiped it and found that it required a password.

The password will not be...

He tried three times, using her birthday and his own birthday, but neither was correct. The last time he used the date of the day they met, and it actually opened.

He opened the photo album, which contained many photos, most of which were taken when he was in his hometown.

There are also photos of him sleeping.

When was this filmed?
Zhong Yun was thinking when he heard the sound of water in the bathroom suddenly disappear. After a while, the bathroom door opened and Meng Jiaen came out wrapped in a white bath towel with water droplets still hanging on her skin.

His heart skipped a beat, and he tried to make his expression look natural, and asked, "When did you take these photos?"

Meng Jiaen walked to the other side of the bed and sat down, took out a hair dryer and started blowing her hair, lowered her head and said nothing.

In the room, the only sound was the whirring of the hair dryer.

Zhong Yun couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He understood that this would be the most serious challenge he had faced since he got the system.

"calm!"

He told himself, “You can do this!”

If he can't pass this test, then he will most likely fail the rest of the self-discipline challenges. He will never achieve financial freedom in this life, let alone become a billionaire.

Do you still want to take it all by then?

I'm afraid he can't even think of taking any of them in. He can't get past Ye Qing. Not to mention Meng Jiaen's grandfather, and the Xia family behind Xia Siyin...

……

At this time, Meng Jiaen turned off the hair dryer, and the room suddenly became quiet.

Zhong Yun took the initiative to break the silence and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

He jumped out of bed and went into the bathroom.

After a while, he came out of the bathroom and saw Meng Jiaen lying on the bed, covered with a quilt with a bath towel beside her, which was clearly the one she had just worn.

This is simply an unspoken invitation.

It’s so testing.

Zhong Yun swallowed hard, walked to the bed, took off his shoes, got on the bed, and lay down next to her.

She covered her head with the quilt, obviously feeling shy.

He said, "You know, what men like most is actually the process of taking off the clothes of the woman they love. This will give him a great sense of accomplishment."

"what?"

Meng Jiaen pulled down the quilt, revealing half of her face, looked at him shyly, and whispered, "Then I, put on my clothes?"

"Just kidding."

Zhong Yun couldn't help but laugh. He reached out and pinched her nose. He looked at her lovingly and said, "Tonight, I just want to hold you and do nothing."
