My minimum living allowance is credited to my account every day with 1000 million yuan

Han Xue was once the only girl Chen Xiao had ever met whose beauty was second only to Xiang Jun. But from today onwards, she's become "one of them".

The girl in front of me was also cold. Unlike Han Xue, whose coldness stemmed from defensiveness and self-protection, this girl's coldness was aloofness and a sense of disdain for the world.

However, Chen Xiao only caught a glimpse of this moment. When she greeted him, Chen Xiao felt that she was a very polite and elegant beauty.

"what's your name?"

"Qiu Qiaoqiao~!"

Chen Xiao smiled. "The surname Qiu is quite uncommon. Shall we sit down and chat?"

Since she wasn't a hostess, Chen Xiao didn't want to force her and asked for her consent. The other two middle-aged women had already taken their money and left, thanking him profusely as they went.

Before Qiu Qiaoqiao could speak, the boss stepped forward and said urgently, "President Chen, she doesn't drink with customers."

Ma Jian glared at him, "Get lost—", and stood up to kick him. Chen Xiao stopped him, "What are you doing? You're with that bastard Luffy every day, look at what you've become."

Scratching his head, Ma Jian realized he had really been corrupted by Luffy, that reckless brute.

Chen Xiao turned to look at the boss and chuckled, "What, is she your plaything?"

The boss's face changed drastically, as if he had just experienced a life-or-death ordeal. "No, no, Mr. Chen, it's not like that—"

At this moment, Qiu Qiaoqiao said to him, "Boss, I'll just have a few drinks with President Chen. It's alright."

Chen Xiao laughed heartily, feeling that his character was solid enough that the girl could trust him. He then told his boss, "Don't worry, I'm not one to force people to do things against their will."

The boss shook his head. "Mr. Chen, I'll take my leave now. She has a low alcohol tolerance, so please don't urge her to drink more."

"You still say this isn't a private matter?" Chen Xiao waved his hand. "Go ahead, don't worry, I won't pressure you to drink."

The boss kept turning back to look at her. Chen Xiao chuckled and said to Qiu Qiaoqiao, "Does your boss not trust you, or does he not trust me?"

Qiu Qiaoqiao raised her wine glass and clinked it with Chen Xiao's. Chen Xiao noticed that her demeanor was extremely elegant, as if she had received special training, and she seemed to come from a distinguished background.

"He was my dad's friend, and he treated me like a daughter—"

Oh? Chen Xiao thought about it and realized it was true. The boss's eyes were full of concern for her, not the lustful desire between a man and a woman.

"This boss is good. Your father must also be a very worthwhile person to befriend, otherwise he wouldn't have such a friend."

Qiu Qiaoqiao lowered her eyelids, her long eyelashes fluttering a few times. "Many people say that, so he has many good friends."

Smelling the delicate fragrance emanating from her, Chen Xiao couldn't deny that this woman was extremely alluring. Beautiful, elegant, and possessing an air of mystery that made one want to explore her.

"Really? I also enjoy making friends. Someday, I'd like to get to know your father; maybe we can become good friends." He was just saying it casually; he had no time to actually go out and make friends.

"Then I'm afraid we won't be able to deliver it."

"Hmm—?" Chen Xiao had already brought the wine glass to his lips, but put it down again upon hearing this. "What, do you perhaps think I'm not qualified to be your father's friend?"

Qiu Qiaoqiao shook her head, which puzzled Chen Xiao even more.

My father is no longer alive—

Chen Xiao paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I brought up something that hurt you."

Qiu Qiaoqiao raised her glass and clinked it with his. "It's okay. Even if you don't mention it, I'll remember it. I'll remember it every day, every moment."

A surge of emotion welled up within him; he could sense Qiu Qiaoqiao's longing for her father. He tilted his glass, clinked it against hers, and then took a small sip. "He must have loved you very much."

Her eyes suddenly became very bright, and the depth beneath them was like a bottomless pool, drawing people in irresistibly into them.

He gave me everything he could—

Chen Xiao wasn't good at comforting people. When faced with this situation, he really regretted bringing up the topic. It seemed he was no good at picking up girls.

He forced himself to say, "Your father must be a good man."

"why?"

This question stumped Chen Xiao. He had just said it casually; how did he know why her father was a good person?

Why must someone be a good person?

Chen Xiao then understood why she was referring to this. Before he could answer, Qiu Qiaoqiao continued, "Why does he have to be a good person? I just need him to be a good father, the best father in the world."

"Hmm—you make a good point." Chen Xiao realized that if this question continued to drag on, he wouldn't know how to respond.

He clapped his hands and beckoned the princess over, "Let's play some games—"

The princess came over and asked, "How about playing the tissue-passing game?"

The so-called "tissue paper passing" involves passing banknotes by holding them in your mouth. The larger the denomination, the more ambiguous the action (a 3-yuan note is only 3cm wide after being folded three times).

Chen Xiao had the princess explain the game rules, but he was actually telling Qiu Qiaoqiao. Although he didn't come to commercial KTVs very often, he knew about this game.

After the princess finished her introduction, Chen Xiao looked at her, as if asking for her opinion.

"You guys play, I'll cheer you on from the sidelines," Qiu Qiaoqiao shook her head, indicating that she wouldn't participate.

Chen Xiao was a little disappointed. Ma Jian stood up and said to Qiu Qiaoqiao, "As long as you're willing to play together, just name your price."

The other beauties all looked over here. None of them recognized Qiu Qiaoqiao, and they guessed that they would have to pay at least 1 yuan each.

Although Mr. Chen is very rich, none of them ever thought they would ask for such an exorbitant amount when playing a game. They would do anything, even kissing, without asking for a single penny, let alone passing tissues.

Qiu Qiaoqiao shook her head without hesitation, and Ma Jian sneered, "One million—"

*Thud!* The young woman next to him was so startled that she dropped her wine glass to the ground. Playing a simple paper-passing game could win a million dollars—what was there to hesitate about? This Qiu Qiaoqiao has struck it rich!

To their surprise, Qiu Qiaoqiao shook her head and refused without hesitation, "I'm not playing!"

Ma Jian, not wanting to disappoint his boss, immediately raised the stakes: "200 million—"

All the girls around him held their breath. Only Cha Lan and a few others knew that as long as they could make President Chen happy, they would spend hundreds of millions, let alone millions. The main issue was that it was just a woman from the Shang family; they couldn't possibly spend hundreds of millions directly.

This 200 million has stunned all the girls in the room. Forget about playing games, they'd rather be played by others for as long as they want. With 200 million in hand, why bother going to work?

"300 million?" Seeing that she still didn't react, Ma Jian quietly continued to add more.

"500 million—?"

The girls' eyes widened in disbelief. Who the hell were these people? One dared to offer, and the other dared to refuse. Why didn't such a good thing happen to them?

Qiu Qiaoqiao stood up. "President Chen, let's call it a day. It was a pleasure to meet you."

She clinked glasses with Chen Xiao, drank her drink, and then walked out of the private room as if no one else was there. Chen Xiao was surprised that she could resist the temptation of 500 million yuan, and so decisively. This was just a game, after all. He suddenly felt an even stronger interest in this woman.

She didn't even try to exchange contact information with him, so Chen Xiao naturally wouldn't take the initiative. He was interested, but that was all; it wasn't enough to make him go to such lengths.

"Okay, go play."

Chen Xiao stopped Ma Jian when he tried to chase after her. Ma Jian, that reckless man, was such a spoilsport in pursuing a girl.

He had completed his mission and didn't want to linger. He planned to return to Xishan Linyu first, leaving the others to enjoy themselves there, so as not to spoil their fun. But these guys were just there to keep him company; there was no time like the day they couldn't pick up girls, and besides, they were never short of women in these entertainment venues.

Finally, Chen Xiao gave each of the girls from tonight a stack of cash. He didn't count the exact amount, but it should be close to 20 yuan.

He had already said he would earn at least 10, and he wouldn't go back on his word. Today, he not only completed the system task, raising his dedication level and minimum subsistence allowance, but he also met Qiu Qiaoqiao, such an interesting girl. He was in a very good mood.

Several beauties went downstairs to see off the distinguished guest, and the one accompanying Cha Lan kept asking if they wanted to have some late-night snacks. Cha Lan smiled; their excuse for wanting late-night snacks was that they really wanted to sleep with Chen Xiao. But they didn't seem to realize what kind of taste President Chen had, surrounded by beauties of all caliber. How could he possibly be interested in them? Maybe it would be Qiu Qiaoqiao.

A group of people escorted them downstairs. When they saw the Rolls-Royce Phantom Executive Extended Wheelbase parked at the entrance, the young women exchanged glances. As expected of important people, even their vehicles were so impressive.

After watching Zhao Hui and Chen Xiao get into the Rolls-Royce and see them off, Ma Jian, Cha Lan, Li Guoqiang, and Liu Haoran got into their own cars.

"Wow, that's incredible. Even the worst ones are riding in Voyah Dream cars. Those two old men are quite powerful, they're actually riding in Maybach S680s."

"Did any of you add them on WeChat? My partner won't give it to me." Shaking their heads, they realized they hadn't gotten their contact information at all, which was a real shame.

"We're so lucky! We made 20 yuan today. They're so envious of us. I've decided to take a two-week break and go on a trip."

"Hey, what are we compared to that? Think about Qiu Qiaoqiao, such a simple opportunity to earn 500 million, which would have made her financially independent, and she actually gave it up. Is she stupid? If she didn't need the money, why would she be working?"

"I've never seen her before. I never expected there to be such a beautiful girl in the company, much prettier than Xiaoman. Xiaoman usually boasts that she's the most beautiful woman in the company, but compared to Qiu Qiaoqiao, she's like a pheasant compared to a phoenix."

Chen Xiao left, and that night, countless girls at the Zichen Palace International Club couldn't sleep.

Chen Xiao, for the first time ever, sent Han Xue a message: "Xiao Xue, come back soon, I miss you—"

Han Xue, who was on a business trip in Ningxi, had just lain down at the Junxiao Hotel when she received Chen Xiao's message. Immediately, she was eager to return home and quickly got up, calling out to her assistant outside, "Xiao Qin, arrange a car. We're going back to Jiangzhou now."

The assistant had no idea what had happened that made President Han rush back to Jiangzhou at 23 p.m., after he had already washed up and was about to rest. She didn't dare ask what was going on, and she never imagined that President Han just wanted to appear in front of Chen Xiao as soon as possible the next morning.

Chen Xiao was drunk and didn't go into Xiang Jun's room. Xiang Jun disliked the smell of alcohol, and since she was pregnant, Chen Xiao went upstairs himself to have Wang Ping take good care of her. He Qing, whose injuries hadn't fully healed, had become a supporter.

It was late at night when Chen Xiao finished beating Wang Ping and checked his phone.

Huh—? Han Xue actually came back late at night. She sent me a message saying she was in Jiangzhou, at her home in Jindi Xiushan Yin.

Now that he was a bit more sober, he cursed himself for being foolish. He had been attracted to Qiu Qiaoqiao at the karaoke bar that night, and then suddenly remembered that Han Xue's temperament and appearance were similar to hers, so he sent Han Xue a message, which resulted in her running to Jiangzhou late at night. Chen Xiao felt a little guilty at this moment.

"Go to sleep now—"

He Qing noticed that Chen Xiao was still scrolling through his phone. It was already very late, and she was worried that he wouldn't get enough rest and would harm his health, so she reminded him.

"Alright~!" Chen Xiao tossed his phone aside, came over and pulled He Qing's soft, boneless body into his arms. "Hurry up and recover from your injuries. I'm itching for more."

He Qing leaned back slightly.

"I'm all better now—", she said, meaning she could take care of him now. Seeing him in pain made He Qing feel quite uncomfortable too.

He gently rubbed her plump, perky buttocks. "No, you need to get some rest."

The next day, in the morning.

After handling some urgent cases at the company, Han Xue went to Chen Xiao's office. Seeing her return, Zhang Ziqian asked in surprise, "President Han, didn't you say this business trip would last a few days?"

Looking at Chen Xiao, I noticed he seemed a little embarrassed. "I had some urgent business to attend to, so I came back. I'll go to Tianning this afternoon."

"Let's go tomorrow. Now that you're back, take a good rest for a day. I'll take you out for a stroll later."

Hearing that Han Xue was going back in the afternoon, Chen Xiao felt even more guilty. To satisfy her own desires, Han Xue had come back last night, spent some time with him in the morning, and then returned to work in the afternoon. It made Chen Xiao feel that he was being too depraved.

Han Xue was very interested; this was the first time Chen Xiao had taken her out on a trip alone. "However, I've arranged a meeting this afternoon with the general managers of several stores in Tianning."

Chen Xiao sighed helplessly. This girl was just like Gao Yue; once she threw herself into work, she became a workaholic. He knew she didn't want to neglect her work, and besides, this afternoon was a key pre-opening meeting with several core members to discuss the upcoming openings of several new stores.

Junxiao Supermarket is an important part of Junxiao Group. After Han Xue took over as the chairman of this business unit, she was very cautious and timid, afraid that she might not do a good job and delay Chen Xiao's affairs.

With so many sisters in the Chen family, each has their own area of ​​responsibility, and no one wants to make a mistake in their area of ​​expertise. How could they hold their heads high among their sisters if they did? Besides, even with such a strong foundation, President Gao works so hard, and President Xu, as the group's CEO, works so hard. What right do I have not to work hard?

Chen Xiao knew her personality; forcing her to stay wouldn't make her feel at ease, so he could only let her be. Zhang Ziqian and Ma Jing spent the whole morning spying from a small secret compartment. Ma Jing kept commenting, "Ziqian, Han Xue has such a great figure! Wow, how did she do such a difficult move? She can even lift her leg up to her head! Has she been secretly working out?"

Zhang Ziqian pinched her, "Keep your voice down, don't affect her performance." Han Xue was shy, and if she knew that the two of them were watching the game outside, she might be nervous and at a loss.

After seeing Han Xue off and telling her to take care of herself, Chen Xiao returned to his office and said to Ma Jing and Zhang Ziqian, "Let's go out for a walk this afternoon."

"Ah—, Brother Chen Xiao, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"

Chen Xiao then remembered that Ma Jing was going to Dr. Feng's Robotics Technology Group that afternoon to sign a contract and collect her bonus. It seemed that it would be just him and Zhang Ziqian going out that afternoon.

Linglongfang in Jiangzhou is the characteristic town that Chen Xiao visited with Xiang Jun last time. They even got Wang Yan's brother's brother-in-law sent there to work as a sewing machine operator because of two candies.

He remembered that the environment here was nice, so he came over for a stroll and to breathe some fresh air.

It was Zhang Ziqian's first time here, and everything was new and exciting. It was a weekday and morning, so there weren't many people in the neighborhood.

"Ziqian, there's a temple by the lake. Let's go for a walk over there." I hadn't noticed it when I came here last time. The temple is at the highest point of the block, with a lake below it.

Zhang Ziqian naturally listened to him in everything. When they went to the temple, they passed by the shop where she had bought the imperial green bracelet for Xiangjun last time. The shop owner happened to be sitting by the door drinking tea. The moment he saw Chen Xiao, he subconsciously stood up.

Originally, Chen Xiao wasn't planning to go in, but seeing his expression, she smiled and said, "Boss, do you have anything good? If not, I won't go in."

The shopkeeper hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes—" This guy is a big spender, spending tens of millions without batting an eye. It's a pity he wouldn't leave his contact information last time he came. Now that we've finally run into him, we'll have to beg him to come to the shop, even if we have to kneel down.

"You know my requirements. If you don't meet my standards, I will never come to your little shop again."

"I know, I know, it's not a good thing, how could I dare to give it to you?"

Chen Xiao looked at Zhang Ziqian and smiled, "Let's go in and take a look. If there's anything good, then today's trip won't have been in vain."

Stepping into the shop, Chen Xiao was suddenly taken aback, then smiled. He hadn't expected to run into Qiu Qiaoqiao so unexpectedly. Jiangzhou City was so big; to bump into her right outside his door was truly fate.

At that moment, she was looking at a jade thumb ring. Behind the counter, a man in his thirties, probably the owner's apprentice, was explaining the origin of the jade thumb ring.

"Miss, this jade thumb ring has quite a history. Our boss bought it at an auction in London. It's said to have been a gift from the wife of a top foreign tycoon. Later, the tycoon ran into trouble, and some of his jewelry was sold off by his servants. This jade thumb ring was auctioned together with a Western Han Dynasty jade immortal and galloping horse, so it was a gift from that jade immortal and galloping horse."

Hearing footsteps behind them, Qiu Qiaoqiao turned around and said at the same time as Chen Xiao, "What a coincidence!" She carefully looked Zhang Ziqian up and down.

"This is a men's jade thumb ring—" Chen Xiao thought she wouldn't understand, so she reminded her, which earned her an eye roll from Zhang Ziqian. Even a fool could see it was a men's jade thumb ring, did you really need to tell her?
Qiu Qiaoqiao nodded. "I picked it up to take a look because it looked quite exquisite. It's alright, Mr. Chen, you can continue browsing. I'll go take a look outside."

Chen Xiao watched her graceful figure disappear from his sight with a meaningful gaze. This woman was interesting. If it were any other girl in the KTV, he probably wouldn't be able to get rid of her even if he tried, but this one left without a second thought.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. She was unmoved when offered 500 million for playing a game last night, which shows that this woman is not interested in money.

Western Han Dynasty Jade Immortal and Galloping Horse

Made of Hetian white jade, this sculpture is about 15 cm high and is a rare Han Dynasty round carving symbolizing "an immortal riding a heavenly horse," making it highly sought after.

The boss then came over and explained the origin of the item again.

"I really haven't changed my bad habit. When I see something nice, I want to buy it, but then I regret it. Such an expensive item is something that only someone with your financial resources could afford. This one item has taken up all my funds."

Chen Xiao smiled, took it and looked at it, then handed it to Zhang Ziqian: "What do you think? Buy it and put it in the office to play with?"

The boss glanced at Zhang Ziqian and thought to himself, "This CEO Chen is really something. The woman he brought last time was so beautiful, like she stepped out of a painting. And this one in front of me is pure and refined, with a very gentle temperament. Most importantly, she looks so much like Daqiangzi's wife."

As Zhang Ziqian held the treasures in her hands and admired them, Chen Xiao jokingly asked, "Do foreigners also know how to appreciate these treasures from our Chinese ancestors?"

“They really like it, and it’s not surprising that this wealthy man is an overseas Chinese who likes these kinds of things.”

Oh? I see. Chen Xiao then picked up the jade thumb ring. "The quality of this one is just average."

"Indeed, this jade thumb ring was a free gift, but it is said that it was given to the wealthy man by his wife when they got engaged."

Chen Xiao feels sorry for this wealthy man; how did he end up having even his love token stolen?

"I've got my eye on this jade immortal and galloping horse. Make your bid."

"Mr. Chen, I bought this at an auction. I can show you the receipt."

He waved his hand, "Just tell me the price, I don't have time to look at it."

"Mr. Chen, the price I paid in the auction is 1.8 million RMB. Can I add 500 million?"

This isn't much of an increase; the boss probably thinks Mr. Chen is a valuable client worth befriending, so he's showing his sincerity.

Chen Xiao naturally wouldn't take advantage of him, and sighed, "No matter how much you guard against it, it's hard to guard against a thief within your own family. A treasure worth 2 million yuan was stolen just like that, and a token of love was also stolen. I wonder if this rich man will be furious."

"Ziqian, transfer 2 million to him—" It's reasonable for him to earn 1.8 million from an item worth 2000 million.

The boss almost knelt down before him; if it weren't for Chen Xiao, his cash flow would have dried up. (End of Chapter)
