Super Rich: Enjoying the Happiness of the Wealthy After Divorce
Chapter 107 A Generous Gift and a Hidden Wish
As Tang Xinyi left Hang Lung Plaza, she still felt dizzy and as if it were all unreal.
The box in her arms contained sixteen million worth of jewelry; it was so heavy that it made her palms numb from the heat.
Zhou Cheng acted as if nothing had happened, driving her to the Porsche Center in the city center.
"What are we doing here?" Tang Xinyi didn't understand.
"I'll get you a new car." Zhou Cheng parked the car and pulled her inside. "Your Mercedes is too old-fashioned; it doesn't suit you."
Tang Xinyi wanted to say that she already had a car and didn't need to buy one.
But the words got stuck in his throat and he swallowed them back.
She understood that with this man, there was no way to talk about saving money.
The more polite you are, the more he'll try to force the best things into your hands.
Inside the showroom, a sales manager in a sharp suit spotted Zhou Cheng's Ferrari and quickly came out to greet him.
"Good afternoon, sir/madam. Looking to see a car? We have the latest 911 and Panamera models in stock."
Zhou Cheng's gaze swept around the showroom, finally landing on a white convertible Porsche 911 Carrera S.
That car had sleek lines and a touch of sports car wildness; it was truly beautiful.
"That one," Zhou Cheng pointed. "Get the paperwork done."
"Ah? Okay...okay, sir!" The sales manager was so excited that his face turned red, not expecting the business to come so quickly.
"Sir, you have excellent taste! This is the top-of-the-line model; with all the options, the total price is 2.37 million..."
"Swipe your card."
Zhou Cheng handed over the card; the whole process took less than five minutes.
Tang Xinyi stood to the side, already numb.
The financial shock she experienced today is greater than it has been in the past thirty years combined.
She watched Zhou Cheng sign his name and then put the brand-new car key into her hand, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind.
This man seems to really want to give her the whole world.
"What are you staring at? Don't you like it?" Zhou Cheng raised an eyebrow when he saw her in a daze.
"No... I really like it." Tang Xinyi quickly shook her head, clutching the keys tightly. "Thank you."
Zhou Cheng scratched her nose.
"Do I need to thank you?"
"Come on, get in your new car and take me home."
Tang Xinyi looked at him, suddenly mustered up her courage, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on the cheek.
"This is a reward," she said, blushing.
Zhou Cheng smiled, put his arm around her waist, and returned a deeper kiss to her lips.
……
Tang Xinyi drove her brand-new white Porsche, with Zhou Cheng in the car, back to the neighborhood where her parents lived.
The moment the car stopped downstairs, chaos erupted.
Neighbors poked their heads out of the windows, pointing and commenting on the unbelievably beautiful sports car.
When Tang's parents heard the commotion, they came downstairs and were startled to see their daughter and Zhou Cheng getting out of the car.
"Xinyi, what... what is this car?"
"Uncle, Auntie." Zhou Cheng took out a few gift boxes from the trunk and walked over with a smile. "Xinyi is too tired from work, so I'm getting her a new car. It'll be safer for her to drive."
He handed over the gift box he was holding.
"This is a special supply of Moutai for my uncle, and a set of jade jewelry for my aunt. It's just a small token of my appreciation."
Mr. and Mrs. Tang looked at the exquisite packaging and then at the brand-new Porsche, unsure of what to do with themselves.
"Oh dear, Zhou Cheng, you...you've gone to such lengths! Absolutely too much!" Tang's mother rubbed her hands together, her face a mixture of surprise and delight. "Quickly, come upstairs, come upstairs!"
Once inside, Tang's mother opened the set of jade jewelry, and her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
It was a set of top-grade icy imperial green jadeite necklace, earrings, and bracelet. The translucency was so high that it seemed to drip water, and the green was breathtaking.
When Tang's mother was young, she knew a little about this stuff and could tell at a glance that this set was priceless.
"My God... how much does this cost?!"
"As long as Auntie likes it, that's fine." Zhou Cheng's answer was always understated.
Tang's father opened the Moutai box and was so excited to see the few bottles of special-supply liquor that could not be found on the market that he immediately wanted to have a couple of drinks with Zhou Cheng.
Laughter filled the living room for a moment.
Tang Xinyi sat beside them, watching her parents beam with joy and shower Zhou Cheng with enthusiasm, and felt a mix of emotions.
She knew that this man had completely won over her parents in less than a day, using the most direct method.
Or rather, it was money that bought out the future of her entire family.
And she wasn't offended at all.
She even somewhat enjoyed the feeling of being completely controlled by him.
Just then, the system notification sounded in Zhou Cheng's mind again.
[Ding! Target person Tang Xinyi detected. Affection level increased to 95 (Deep Love)!]
[Ding! Target person Tang Xinyi's family member detected. Favorability increased to 100 (Fully Affirmed)!]
[Congratulations, host! Lucky Mission (Tang Xinyi): The hidden wish has met the trigger conditions!]
[Mission Core Unlocked!]
As the system notification faded, a long-forgotten memory began to unfold in Zhou Cheng's mind.
Five years ago, at the anniversary gala of Jiangcheng TV station.
In the picture, Tang Xinyi is younger and more innocent than she is now. She is wearing a beautiful white evening dress and standing backstage, holding the Golden Microphone Award for Best Newcomer. Her face shows excitement and nervousness.
Just as she was about to go on stage to give her speech, a handsome young man in an Armani suit, but with an arrogant look in his eyes, stopped her.
"Xinyi, congratulations." The man smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
"Lu Ze? Thank you." Tang Xinyi's expression turned noticeably cold.
This man is named Lu Ze, the station's star host and also a rich second-generation. He has been pursuing her, which she finds very off-putting.
"Xinyi, my dad just bought me a white Porsche 911. How about we go for a drive after tonight?" Lu Ze showed off the car keys in his hand.
"No need, I have plans with friends," Tang Xinyi refused directly.
Lu Ze's face darkened.
He glanced at the trophy in Tang Xinyi's hand and suddenly sneered, "It's just a newcomer award, what's there to be so smug about? Believe me or not, I can turn this award into a joke with just one word."
"What do you mean?" Tang Xinyi frowned.
"It doesn't mean anything." Lu Ze's eyes turned cold. "I just wanted to tell you that in this station, you're just a wild girl with no background. Don't push your luck."
After saying that, he actually reached out and snatched the trophy from Tang Xinyi's hand.
Then, in front of everyone backstage, he deliberately slipped his hand.
That gleaming gold trophy was simply thrown into the nearby trash can.
"Oops, sorry, my hand slipped." He shrugged, his face full of sarcasm and malice. "Looks like this award isn't really your thing."
At that moment, the backstage area was completely silent.
All eyes were fixed on Tang Xinyi.
There was sympathy, there was schadenfreude, but there was mostly indifference.
Tang Xinyi's face turned pale instantly. She looked at the trophy, stained with dirt, in the trash can. It was an honor she had fought so hard for, and now it was being humiliated in public like trash.
Her body trembled violently from anger and resentment.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she bit her lip hard to keep them from falling.
That's the end of the video.
Zhou Cheng slowly opened his eyes, his gentle demeanor completely gone.
So, this was her unresolved issue.
The man named Lu Ze was the man from her past that she didn't want to talk about.
[Task Update!]
Main Quest: Reach the Summit!
[Mission Requirements: At the charity gala next weekend, in a way that everyone, especially Lu Ze, will never forget, help Tang Xinyi wash away the shame of five years ago and fulfill her wish!]
[Mission Reward: 100% ownership of Hang Lung Plaza!]
Looking at the mission rewards section, Zhou Cheng revealed a cold smile.
The entire Hang Lung Plaza?
This time, the system was quite generous.
He looked at Tang Xinyi beside him, who was chatting and laughing with her parents, and his eyes showed more pity.
Foolish woman.
She suffered such a great injustice, but she never mentioned it to me.
But it's okay.
I'll be there for you from now on.
I will help you get back all the grievances you've suffered, and I will make sure you get them back tenfold!
