Chapter 14: Chapter 14: Brand New Items Cannot Be Collected
THUD!
After Fang Chenyi spoke, the diners in the hall practically fell over in a heap again. ’Holy crap, is this the world of the rich? Is this the world of the powerful? It’s so dazzling!’
It wasn’t just the crowd; even Manager Wu was so shocked by Fang Chenyi’s words that he nearly threw out his back.
Finally, as the crowd watched them go, Manager Wu personally led the two to the VIP-exclusive elevator. After helping Fang Chenyi press the button for his floor, he respectfully retreated to the elevator entrance.
With a helpless look on his face, Fang Chenyi carried the completely passed-out Bai nghan into the VIP-exclusive elevator leading from the lobby to the guest rooms. He grumbled to himself in frustration, ’Isn’t this just torture? I’ve never even held a woman in my life.’
As expected of a VIP-exclusive elevator, it was very fast. It took only twenty-so seconds to reach the Super Ocean-View Presidential Suite on the top floor.
When they reached the door, Fang Chenyi supported Bai nghan’s back with one arm while raising his knee to hold her up, freeing a hand to quickly swipe the key card. He finally managed to get the door open.
Perhaps because his movents were a bit rough, Bai nghan, who was in his arms, seed to feel sothing digging into her uncomfortably. She subconsciously squird, and her small hand pawed at the uncomfortable spot.
"Holy shit! Don’t just grope around like that! You’re gonna be the death of ."
The sneak attack made Fang Chenyi jolt instantly.
Just then, however, Bai nghan groggily opened her eyes. Looking at Fang Chenyi’s handso, blurry face, she acted on an alcohol-fueled impulse and planted a smacking kiss on his cheek.
That single kiss made Fang Chenyi’s mind buzz and go completely blank.
「Two hours later.」 Staring at the ss all over the floor, Fang Chenyi was dumbfounded. The two consecutive system prompts that had just sounded in his mind, in particular, replayed before his eyes.
[Congratulations, Master, for picking up one young lady. The system awards a special item: one spaceship from a hyper-advanced civilization.]
[Reward collection failed. After system evaluation, this act of scrap-picking has been determined to be cheating. The picked-up young lady is brand new and does not qualify as scrap. The reward has been withdrawn by the system. A one-ti warning has been issued to the Master.]
...
"What?? Holy shit, brand new!"
Gulping, he stared at the long-legged beauty sleeping soundly. Fang Chenyi was utterly floored. Of course, after hearing those two system prompts, he was actually quite happy. ’After all, when it cos to... this... brand new is always better!’
"Haha, since she’s brand new, I’ve really hit the jackpot this ti."
After the wave of excitent passed, Fang Chenyi knew he couldn’t possibly go back to his rental apartnt now. He leaned back against the headboard, perfectly content, and pulled out his phone to start taking stock of his haul for the day.
His bank account had received a total of 268,950 yuan. In addition, he had a Lamborghini Sesto Elento worth over twenty-three million, ten detached villas in Century Garden, and that bottle of Emperor Moutai worth tens of millions.
Huh? ’Wait a minute, didn’t I get a painting too?’ At this thought, Fang Chenyi quietly slipped out of bed, picked up the woven bag by the bedside, and reached inside to feel around.
He had to admit, the design and function of this woven bag were truly incredible. No matter how filthy the junk tossed inside, it would vanish instantly. Most importantly, the interior of the bag remained completely uncontaminated. To put it bluntly, this woven bag, after holding trash all night, was cleaner than a dinner bowl. The most amazing part was that it automatically destroyed all harmful bacteria; that feature alone was just aweso.
After rummaging around inside for a mont, Fang Chenyi soon pulled out a fairly large oil painting from the woven bag. In the light of the bedside lamp, he could clearly see that it was a portrait of the Mona Lisa. Seeing this, he couldn’t help but blurt out a curse:
"Holy shit! This can’t be the real thing!"
At this muttered curse, the system’s voice promptly sounded in his mind:
[If it’s from the System, it’s guaranteed to be genuine!]
Those few short words spoke of the System’s arrogance and its grandeur.
’Then if this one is real, what about the one in the Louvre Museum? Could that one be a forgery?? No way!!’
After thinking it over, that seed to be the only plausible explanation. After all, the chances of there being two Mona Lisas were extrely small.
After looking at it for a while, Fang Chenyi still couldn’t see what was so great about it. He’d rather spend the ti appreciating the real-life Bai nghan next to him. With that thought, he simply reached out and tossed the oil painting, said to be worth an absolute fortune, back into the woven bag.
Lying back down on the bed with one arm around Bai nghan, he began to feel wonderfully smug:
’Sigh, how did I get rich just like that? It’s only been a short while. Houses? I have ten of them, and they’re all detached villas.
A car? I have one worth twenty million.
A woman? There’s one right here beside , and she’s a great beauty, a 95 out of 100 at least.
When all’s said and done, the only thing I seem to be lacking now is savings. I have a net worth of four or five hundred million, but only a little over two hundred thousand in the bank. That doesn’t quite add up. Looks like I’ll have to work hard tomorrow!’
With these thoughts, Fang Chenyi, one arm around Bai nghan and the other clutching the woven bag by the bedside, drifted off to sleep.
「Early the next morning」, a sudden scream startled Fang Chenyi awake. Seeing Bai nghan beside him clutching the blankets, he was shocked as well. He quickly grabbed the woven bag to cover his front.
Fortunately, they both quickly ca to their senses. Bai nghan, in particular, looked at the handso young man before her and rembered what had happened yesterday. In an instant, her face flushed bright red with embarrassnt.
’To think I’ve been so sharp my whole life, yet I just... muddle-headedly... sigh... Alcohol is the absolute worst!’
Seeing this, Fang Chenyi, now fully composed, put down the woven bag. ’I’m a man,’ he thought, ’and since it’s already done, I can’t be wishy-washy about it.’ And so, he directly pulled the shy Bai nghan into his arms:
"Alright, since it’s already happened, you’ll be with
from now on! Don’t worry, stick with
and I guarantee you’ll live a life of luxury!"
His words were so overflowing with dominance that Bai nghan was completely captivated by his overbearing tone. Like a docile kitten in Fang Chenyi’s arms, she nodded and gave a soft "mhm."
Two hours later, the two of them, now fully dressed and ready, walked out of the luxurious ocean-view presidential suite together. It was just that Bai nghan’s gait looked a little awkward.
They took the VIP-exclusive elevator and quickly arrived downstairs. Seeing Fang Chenyi and his companion co down, Manager Wu, who had been waiting in the lobby for so ti, hurriedly trotted over.
When he reached them, he presented a golden card with both hands and began to speak, "Mr. Fang..."
