I became financially independent right after entering college.

Chapter 62 Beats
…………

Meanwhile, Bai Chou also returned to the dormitory carrying a dozen shopping bags. He had bought so much, including four pairs of shoes, that he only took half of the items he'd brought upstairs, leaving the rest for another trip.

Before entering the door, Bai Chou heard a commotion coming from the dormitory.

When I opened the door, I saw several people smoking. Zhou Haoyu was sitting in the middle, looking very high-spirited. Zhang Junjie, Chen Guangzhi and others were huddled together, playing with and examining an electronic key for a Porsche 911.

The white 911 downstairs should be the new car Zhou Haoyu just bought.

"Hey, you're back, Lao Bai. How was your singing practice today? Did Xiaoxue cause you any trouble?"

Seeing Bai Chou, Zhou Haoyu was still sitting on the chair and raised his hand to greet Bai Chou.

The military training in Nanchuan was very relaxing, with plenty of rest time. Zhou Haoyu would run to Li Xue from time to time. Li Xue finally signed up for a program with Bai Chou, and Zhou Haoyu eventually found out.

Although Zhou Haoyu was still a little unhappy about this, he didn't say much on the surface.

Bai Chou had already given him a lot of face, having rejected Li Xue very straightforwardly last time. Moreover, he had also "persuaded" Bai Chou to agree last time.

Generally speaking, Zhou Haoyu didn't lose too much face. Besides, this matter had become an fait accompli. Zhou Haoyu could only accept it and try to stop the loss.

"Not bad. Li Xue has made great progress. Although she says she won't practice anymore, she's actually working hard and hasn't caused me any trouble."

Bai Chou answered casually, opened his cabinet, and casually put the shopping bag in it.

"Wow, Lao Bai, you went to Deji Plaza and bought so many things. You must have spent at least 100,000 yuan."

When Zhou Haoyu noticed the shopping bags in Bai Chou's hands, his eyes lit up and he immediately admired him. He didn't have any awkward thoughts in his mind. After all, he was in high spirits today.

"Just buy a few outfits."

"You didn't just buy it casually. It cost at least hundreds of thousands, enough to buy a car."

"Speaking of cars..."

Bai Chou smiled and looked at the Porsche keys in Chen Guangzhi and the others' hands: "Congratulations, you finally got your new car. When I got up just now, I saw a very handsome white 911 parked on the side of the road."

"Hey, what's so cool about my Puka? If I want to talk about coolness, it has to be your GT3RS. I even asked about it when I picked up the car today. Your GT3RS is still the only one in Jinling."

Taking the car keys from Chen Guangzhi and the others, Zhou Haoyu twisted his index finger around the key ring twice and said confidently, "But this car is also better than your GT3RS.

Although the back seat can only accommodate a dog, it can still squeeze in four people. The back seat of your car is actually dismantled."

"Don't even mention that only dogs can sit in the back seat. Even if we really have to be dogs, we would accept it if we could sit in a Porsche 911." Chen Guangzhi and others boasted with a laugh.

Bai Chou smiled and said nothing. It was really awesome that it could seat four people.

"By the way, Lao Bai, has Xiaoxue arrived at the dormitory?"

After a while of laughing and bragging, Zhou Haoyu suddenly got to the point.

"We should be at the dormitory by now. What's wrong?" Bai Chou was a little confused.

"What's wrong? Brother Yu must be planning to confess his feelings."

"I just bought a Porsche 911. I'm so full of energy. I'm sure I'll chase the beautiful woman sitting in the passenger seat as well."

"I have the luxury car, now all I need is the beauty!"

Chen Guangzhi and his friends were joking and laughing.

"Hey, what's the point of confessing or not? Who still wants to confess these days? How vulgar. Everything will happen naturally. I just want to give Xiaoxue something."

Zhou Haoyu didn't feel shy after his thoughts were exposed. After winning the Porsche 911, today was indeed the day when he was most proud and confident. Just now, when he looked in the mirror, he felt that he was extremely handsome.

Taking advantage of this high-spirited energy, Zhou Haoyu really plans to do something.

Zhou Haoyu took down an unopened box from the bed and shook it, then said with a smile, "When I was coming back from picking up the car today, I happened to pass by a Beats store and remembered that Xiaoxue seemed to like your headphones, Lao Bai. So I bought the best headphones in the store and planned to give them to Xiaoxue."

Beats……

Bai Chou and the others took a closer look and found that the box in Zhou Haoyu's hand was actually the Beats flagship over-ear noise-canceling Bluetooth headset.

Bai Chou's mouth twitched twice. Li Xue likes my Odin, and then you gave her Beats... This, this is inappropriate.

Zhang Junjie, who works part-time as an online writer, had the same reaction as Bai Chou. The corners of his mouth twitched twice, and then he glanced at Bai Chou imperceptibly.

Although he didn't know how much Bai Chou's Odin cost, he had some understanding of the difference between Hifi headphones and Bluetooth noise-canceling headphones.

Chen Guangzhi and others didn't think there was anything wrong with it and said that Zhou Haoyu was magnanimous.

"Beats, I've heard of them. They're awesome. Apple spent billions of dollars on them."

"I usually watch the NBA and the World Cup, and it seems top sports stars like LeBron James and Neymar all use Beats."

"Brother Yu, this must be the flagship of Beats, right? How much is it?"

Zhou Haoyu didn't think there was anything wrong with giving Beats as a gift. He also watched sports games and knew that Apple spent hundreds of millions of dollars to buy Beats.

World-class sports stars like James LeBron and Neymar are using it. Apple spent so much money on it, can this headset be any worse?

It has both Bluetooth and noise reduction, and it’s so big, it’s definitely much better than Walter White’s small earbuds.

Zhou Haoyu said modestly with a beaming expression, "It's not much money, just under two thousand."

Zhang Junjie wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he didn't dare to speak and turned his gaze to Bai Chou.

Bai Chou thought about it and reminded him implicitly: "How about giving me something else?

Li Xue was just bored that day and used my headphones to listen to a few songs. It doesn't necessarily mean she likes headphones anymore."

"fine."

Zhou Haoyu waved his hand nonchalantly. "The salesperson at the store said these headphones can be worn around the neck as a trendy accessory. Don't you often wear your headphone cables around your neck, too, Lao Bai?"

It’s good that you have this awareness.

Zhou Haoyu insisted on sending it off, and Bai Chou didn't intend to persuade him anymore.

As soon as the words fell, the phone in Bai Chou's pocket suddenly vibrated. He took a look and saw that it was a WeChat message from Kim Hyo Joo.

Kim Hyo Joo: I just tried on the scarf you gave me, it’s very beautiful~
Kim Hyo Joo: Cat meme (distressed)
Kim Hyo Joo: I just can’t take a good-looking photo no matter how hard I try. I can’t send you a selfie to show you how good-looking I am.

Bai Chou smiled and sent a WeChat message to Jin Xiaozhou: "Why send me a selfie? I can just look at it later. Wait for me in the dormitory. Come down when I tell you to."

Kim Hyo Joo: Yeah, okay.

Kim Hyo Joo: Cat meme (well-behaved)
　I would classify this book as an atypical super-rich novel. What makes it atypical? It has basically no "upgrades." If you want to call it a super-rich novel, then it can be classified as a "super-rich novel."

　　The character of the protagonist is low in desire, calm, indifferent, and gentle on the surface like jade. This is a common setting in the stories of the super-rich, because this kind of character is easy to write, does not make the protagonist appear to be a nouveau riche or a country dog, and can prevent the protagonist from "licking" in relationships between men and women.

　　But... I think that in typical super-rich stories, the system that focuses on wealth appreciation and provides various rebates for various consumptions is obviously contrary to this kind of character setting.

　　Even if the authors add all kinds of settings to the protagonists, and describe them as indifferent and having some kind of temperament, the protagonists' behavior of increasing their wealth through consumption, and the system popping up from time to time to remind the protagonists of their wealth growth, will subconsciously remind readers that the protagonists are not as "low-desire" as they appear, and are not so unambiguous in their pursuit of wealth.

　　So writing can really produce good results, with wealth appreciation, consumption rebates, and exciting points in every chapter. BMW and Mercedes-Benz in the early stage, Koenigsegg in the middle stage, and commercial empire in the late stage perfectly fit the "upgrade" system of online literature.

　　But I just feel weird. It’s really hard for me to believe that a person who subconsciously desires “wealth appreciation” can be such an indifferent, low-desire, and jade-like person.

　　So, to preserve the character, I deleted the "wealth appreciation" plotline, which is typical of traditional super-rich stories. This will definitely make the book's performance worse and the pace flatter, but I still wrote it this way. It's hard for me to write about something that I subconsciously disagree with.
