“Brother Ye! Brother Ye! Quickly look downstairs!”

The door to his room was knocked repeatedly and it gave Ye Chen⁠—who was still thinking about his successful confession yesterday—a fright.

The door was quickly opened and his three roommates dragged him to the window.

There was a whole sea of red downstairs as someone had used roses to decorate a heart shape on the ground with his name written in the middle of the heart.

Ye Chen furrowed his eyebrows. “Who is it?”

“Our goddess!” His roommate exclaimed, “Aiyo, goodness me, why am I so happy to see you guys display affection to one another?”

His goddess?

Ye Chen’s heart raced. “Chuzheng?”

“Bullshit, other than her, is there anyone whom we call as a goddess?”

Ye Chen scanned the students surrounding the roses however he did not see a familiar figure.

“Where is she?”

His roommates also searched for her as they looked downstairs.

“Strange, she was still there just now.”

“Has she already left?”

Ye Chen went down to find, her but she was indeed not there. He gave her a call, only to be informed by Chuzheng that she had something on so she left first.

“You gave me roses…” mumbled Ye Chen. As a guy, to receive so many roses, he really could not bring himself to be happy… but he still felt very sweet in his heart.

“Hmm, is there a problem?” The voice on the phone sounded very cold.

“You have already agreed to be my girlfriend so why did you give me flowers?” She even gave so many flowers.

“Is there a contradiction?” Since there was a chance for her to become a prodigal, why not?

Ye Chen: “…”

‘It doesn’t seem to contradict.’

In the following days, Ye Chen would always receive flowers downstairs and Ye Chen had tried to stop the delivery person, but the other party said that Chuzheng had ordered two months’ worth of flowers and had asked them to change every single day.

Two months… It was just nice till the time he graduated.

Ye Chen asked Chuzheng to stop giving him flowers, but Chuzheng said that she had already paid for it. Money which was spent was like water that is splashed out.

As such, every day, on the ground level of the male dormitories, everyone would see a huge public display of affection and it had even attracted the admiration and jealousy of many.

However, there were also bad rumors circulating around.

“Is Ji Chuzheng Ye Chen’s sugar mummy?”

“Didn’t he start his own business?”

“Business? Who knows where his capital comes from?”

“But to be honest, if our goddess wants to be my sugar mummy, I will be very willing too.”

“She’s pretty and rich. Anyone who marries her will be a winner in life and you don’t need to strive so hard. Isn’t that great?”

“Dream on.”

“What if it comes true one day?”

For a man to hear such rumors, Ye Chen was definitely not so comfortable with it.

However, as long as he could see Chuzheng, he would not mind all this. Whatever others say was none of his concern.

After Ye Chen and Chuzheng confirmed their relationship, many girls who coveted Ye Chen were heartbroken.

However, Chuzheng kept giving random things to Ye Chen every now and then causing even his friends to start to be sad.

Why didn’t they have such a nice girlfriend?

If their girlfriend wouldn’t spend their money all day, it would already be considered not bad. To them, dating their girlfriends was even more difficult than raising a daughter.



After Ye Chen graduated, his company grew bigger and he had become an established figure within the new generation.

During his company’s fifth year anniversary, Ye Chen proposed to Chuzheng.

Father Ji was afraid that she would not marry and had nagged at her many times.

Chuzheng, on the other hand, did not hate Ye Chen and yet, coupled with King’s continuous persuasion—If Ye Chen were to be tainted, she would have to repeat this life again… Chuzheng finally agreed to his proposal.

On their wedding day, their wedding was grand and ceremonious which took the country by storm.

In a certain interview, a reporter had asked, “I heard that Director Ye and Mrs. Ye have maintained a very good relationship, are there any secrets to it?”

“There’s no secret, I will just listen to whatever she says,” said Ye Chen.

The reporter was very curious. “Director Ye, are you scared of your wife?”

“It is already my honor that she is willing to marry me so I am willing to spoil her for the rest of my life.”

“You really love your wife a lot.”

“In that case, Director Ye, when are you planning to have kids? Since Mrs. Ye doesn’t seem to be doing anything now, is she preparing to have a kid?”

Ye Chen: “…”

Chuzheng’s only plan right now was to spend money and yet he did not even know how much money his father-in-law gave her.

Hence, he still has to work harder to earn money, otherwise, it would not be enough for her to spend.

“Director Ye?”

“We will let nature take its course.”

“Director Ye, may I ask…”

When Ye Chen reached home, he was frightened by the golden statue placed on his table.

“What… is this?” He looked at Chuzheng who was sitting on the sofa.

“Gold.”

“Why did you buy this?”

“It’s valuable.”

“…” ‘She went to spend money again!’

Ye Chen walked towards Chuzheng and sat down beside her as he hooked his arm over her shoulder before expressing tactfully, “Don’t you think it looks a little weird?”

Chuzheng nodded her head in all seriousness. “I think so too.”

“Then why did you buy it?”

Chuzheng turned to face him. “It’s valuable.”

Ye Chen: “…”

Chuzheng gave the gold statue to him. “You can have it.”

Once the gold reached his hands, Ye Chen felt as if his hands were so heavy that he could not breathe. It is so heavy, but why did it look as if she was holding a bubble?

“No, Chuzheng…”

Ye Chen gave the thing to his father-in-law afterward.

“Chuzheng wanted me to give this to you.”

Father Ji’s disdainful look immediately changed to a happy look. “It’s given by my daughter? Not bad, not bad, it looks really nice.”

Ye Chen: “…” ‘Father-in-law is also lying through his teeth.”

‘Other than it being valuable, in what places does it look good?’

“Father-in-law.” Ye Chen said, “Exactly how much money do you give Chuzheng?”

Father Ji felt lost. “I haven’t given her money for a long time.”

Ye Chen subconsciously asked, “In that case, where did she get so much money to buy these things?”

“Didn’t you give her money?”

“I didn’t.” He gave her a supplementary card, but she did not even touch a single cent in it.

Both of them widened their eyes.

Where did she get so much money then?

When Chuzheng came home, both of them stared intensely at Chuzheng.

“Daddy… Ye Chen, what are you two doing?” ‘Why are you looking at me like that?’

“Zhengzheng, where did your money come from?” asked Father Ji.

Ye Chen also had his eyes fixed on her.

Chuzheng was shocked. “…”

‘Will they believe me if I tell them that I picked it up on the road? They don’t look like idiots so they probably won’t believe me.’

‘Bastard, what should I say?’

[…About that, Little miss, just brush them off.]

‘This is your system’s loophole! You didn’t even tell me where you got the money!’

‘Why should I explain it to them for you?’

[…]

This was not the system’s first time, could she really think that something like this would not happen?

It won’t do it again next time.

“I…” Chuzheng gave a serious look. “Won the lottery.”

Ye Chen and Father Ji were stumped. “…”

Chuzheng insisted that she had won the lottery.

Ye Chen followed her all day and knew that she did not hang out with other people, much less say or do anything out of the ordinary.

Although her explanation seemed a little weird, he could only choose to believe her.

Chuzheng was shocked. “…”

Being a prodigal was so troublesome. It was so much more convenient to kill people. There was an easier way to settle things but the system had to use such a troublesome method. A bronze player was indeed a bronze player.

King could only cry in the toilet.

It was a prodigal system after all!

Wasn’t it great to spend money?

Why should they use such a dangerous method?

Chuzheng stayed in that world for a long time and although she had completed the mission and Ye Chen had already thought of her as his friend long ago, she could not leave so she had to wait till she died naturally.

Ye Chen treated her very well and had never crossed the line before. It could be said that till the day they grew old, they still treated each other with respect and this made their friends very envious of them.
