I am not just a tycoon

"You finally decided to show up. I haven't seen you in two days."

Fang Minhui blinked her beautiful eyes, her gaze soft and watery.

Ever since that wonderful night, Fang Minhui always found herself unintentionally thinking about Shen Yuan.

But to say she was thinking about him… wasn't exactly thinking about all of him…

This feeling was strange because she wasn't sure if she was thinking about Shen Yuan the person, or Shen Yuan's body?

Alas, it's true what they say on the internet, once you open the gates to such things, they become like a flood of beasts that can't be closed back up.

"Yeah, I've been a bit busy these two days," Shen Yuan replied.

"Okay then."

Fang Minhui pointed at the drink in Shen Yuan's hand and said, "I just saw you at the convenience store when I was buying stuff with Chen Ling, so I got you a bottle of AD Calcium."

"Oh right, and here's a straw too."

Fang Minhui also handed over the straw she was holding in her other hand.

"Thank you."

Shen Yuan took the straw, turned his head to look at his two roommates who were standing dumbstruck, and laughed:

"Next time if you see the three of us together, just buy three bottles, or I'm afraid they might beat me up later."

"Haha, sorry, I definitely will next time."

Fang Minhui's eyes smiled, "I'll head off first then, let's chat on WeChat."

"Sure."

Shen Yuan waved his hand, and then Fang Minhui, with a satisfied expression, turned and left.

Huang Haibao and Cao Shunjin were completely dumbfounded, watching her alluring figure slowly disappear from their sight, unable to react for a long time.

Especially Huang Haibao, his gaze slightly vacant, it took him a while before he managed to turn his head: "Old Third, what's going on here, why did the class belle suddenly bring you water?"

Shen Yuan smiled mysteriously: "I told you, the class belle likes handsome guys like me."

"Impossible! Absolutely not!"

Huang Haibao vehemently denied, unable to believe that his long-admired class belle would fall for Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan was no longer the affluent Shen Yuan, his family had gone bankrupt, and now he was just another guy sharing a cramped dorm room with them.

But then again, if the class belle wasn't into Shen Yuan, how would one explain the AD Calcium he was sipping on?

And the way the class belle had looked at Old Third, as if she was about to melt; how in the world would one explain that?

Cao Shunjin pursed his lips: "Old Third, what's the real deal here, explain it to us?"

Cao Shunjin was feeling uneasy too, Shen Yuan had only just broken up with his senior not long ago, and now he was already hooking up with the class belle?

They had been single throughout three years of college!

All having received the same nine-year compulsory education, why was life so unfair?

It truly was a case of the drought-stricken dying of drought and the flooded dying in floods!

"If you don't believe it, forget it!"

Shen Yuan, with the AD Calcium still in his mouth, was too lazy to explain further.

Huang Haibao felt an intense imbalance in his heart, a tumultuous feeling he couldn't put into words; that was his moonlit crush of three years!

And now she had taken a liking to Shen Yuan?!

A surge of ire over what felt like the theft of his beloved erupted in Huang Haibao's heart: "Old Third, I curse your grandpa!"

Shen Yuan was taken aback: "What the hell, why are you cursing me?"

"You damn dog, you stole my class belle!"

"Fair competition, survival of the fittest, you should understand that concept, right?"

"I understand your mouth!"

Five minutes later, all of room 503 returned to the dorm, but unlike their sprightly departure, each of them was in a different mood.

Shen Yuan actually wanted to go for another walk on the campus grounds, but the other two were not in the mood.

Cao Shunjin had been drenched and was still processing the unevenness of life, his expression listless and sullen.

And Huang Haibao, his heart was even more bitter, moving like he was sick.

Shen Yuan, that damn dog, used to have a pretty upperclassman for company, always so carefree.

But back then Shen Yuan had money, so they just accepted it.

But now that he was broke and had been dumped by the upperclassman, had he really immediately hooked up with the class belle?

And she was the woman he dreamed of obtaining!

This damn world is too unfair!

Cao Shunjin sat weakly on the stool and sighed, "What a pity, good men like us are out of style now."

Shen Yuan even had the nerve to smirk and said, "Logically speaking, we're brothers, shouldn't you guys be happy for me?"

Huang Haibao didn't want to hear him speak at all now, "Old Third, stop talking, don't sleep in the dorm tonight, I don't want to see you."

"If I don't sleep in the dorm, where should I sleep?"

"Figure it out yourself!"

Looking at these two clowns, Shen Yuan couldn't help but laugh and suggested, "Come on, tonight I'll treat you two big brothers to drinks, we'll drink away our sorrows and won't return unless we're drunk!"

Huang Haibao felt a bit better hearing this and stood up, wiping the corner of his eye, "Old Third, I guess you damn dog still have some conscience."

Cao Shunjin also wanted to slaughter Shen Yuan verbally, "Tonight Snow Beer won't cut it, we need at least Budweiser!"

"Alright, alright, alright!"

Shen Yuan thought, with over a million lying in my account right now, you could empty the beer stock of the barbecue restaurant, and it would not be a problem.

College students in the throes of adolescence, their passions come quickly and go quickly too.

When the three sat at a roadside diner and several bottles of beer were downed, Old Huang and Old Cao returned to their usual demeanors.

But when they looked at Shen Yuan again, their gaze inevitably changed.

It was no surprise Old Third had the cash to splash on upperclassmen.

But now Old Third was as poor as a church mouse and yet still managed to snag the class belle, that wasn't just about the money anymore.

Maybe, there really were some tricks and unique skills they hadn't considered.

Thinking about this, Huang Haibao couldn't help but ask, "Old Third, how on earth did you hook up with the class belle, can you share some tips?"

Old Huang might curse, but he knew he had no chance with the class belle.

After all, the class belle never even looked him straight in the eye.

The reason he felt it was unfair was because he saw the current Shen Yuan as just like him.

So why on earth would the class belle like Shen Yuan?

Shen Yuan disdainfully said, "What do you mean by 'hook up'?"

"You make it sound so crude, it's about mutual admiration, mutual attraction!"

"Quit bullshitting, Old Third, just spill it."

Cao Shunjin was actually very interested too; they hadn't dated much and were especially curious about the unknown.

"There's not much to say, but you guys will slowly understand in time."

Shen Yuan expressionlessly filled his glass with beer, offering no further explanation.

How the hell else could you hook up?

If you had money, you could do it too!

But obviously, he couldn't discuss such reasons with Old Huang and Old Cao.

On one hand, Shen Yuan wasn't the type to boast; furthermore, the source and origins of his money still required legitimate business to cover up.

So Shen Yuan thought it best to speed up the process of cashing in; with more money, he could invest in more businesses and gain more legitimate sources of income.

Investing was a time-limited task. The System had given him only a week, and of the exclusive investment fund of one million, he had already transferred 700,000 yuan to Li Yuhang, leaving 300,000 yuan needing quick deployment.

Although he had helped his family pay off a debt of 200,000 yuan last time, he probably still owed over 900,000 yuan. Although the creditor wasn't an annoying relative like Shen Yaode who would knock on the door demanding repayment, owing money for a long time was always somewhat irritating.

As Shen Yuan pondered silently, the trio inadvertently finished their drinks, then Shen Yuan settled the bill, and the three, with heavy bellies, happily made their way home.
