Chapter 53: Chapter 53: So Good at Making Money
She opened her mobile banking app and entered Chen Xiao’s bank account number into the recipient field.
She entered an amount of 8 million, but the transfer failed!
The mobile banking app had a daily transfer limit of 2 million!
So, she transferred 2 million and then sent a message to Chen Xiao: "You’re so outstanding. The previous 5,000 ’sugar baby’ fee doesn’t do justice to your worth!"
"So, I transferred another 2 million to have you for the night!"
"This money is from the Yino Group’s second-quarter dividend!" She specifically explained this, afraid Chen Xiao might worry about where she got so much money.
Chen Xiao didn’t even see the bank transfer notification. He only saw the system prompt when he refreshed his system panel:
"DING~! Detected that Zhao Xiangjun has paid the Host 2 million yuan as a ’sugar baby fee’. Rewarding Host with a 384 million yuan Zhao Xiangjun-specific Diligence Reward fund. After deposit, the total amount in the Zhao Xiangjun-specific Diligence Reward fund will be 386 million!"
He stood there dumbfounded, rereading the message several times. ’So much money... My dear Xiangjun, aren’t you basically exploiting a bug? There’s a way to make money like this?’
’If you keep playing like this, when will my own wealth ever catch up to yours?’
He complained in his head, but a huge grin nearly split his face.
He pulled up his panel:

His personal wealth had broken the ten-million mark for the first time!
He replied to Zhao Xiangjun: "Alright, my little sugar mama! I accept. I’ll be on my best behavior tonight. We’ll battle until dawn!"
"You are dismissed!"
Zhao Xiangjun blushed. She wasn’t good at this kind of banter; even just reading it made her face turn red.
"Should I pick you up from work?" Chen Xiao had nothing to do in the afternoon anyway.
"No need. If you’re free, just go home and get some rest. My uncle is here, I’ll head back after I see him off in a cab!"
Zhao Xiangjun didn’t like to trouble people.
Chen Xiao knew her personality, so he didn’t insist. He turned the car around and headed back to Bihu Twin Seals.
After work, Zhao Xiangjun saw her uncle into a taxi and even paid the fare in advance, but she didn’t notice the disappointed look on his face.
The whole time, the uncle had held his phone in his hand, intentionally showing off its slightly cracked screen. He hadn’t expected Zhao Xiangjun to be so lost in thought that she wouldn’t even notice his phone.
Bihu Twin Seals, Zhao Xiangjun’s residence.
Chen Xiao was lounging on the sofa playing with his phone as usual. Next to him was a fruit platter with a fork, the fruit all peeled or pre-cut.
Zhao Xiangjun was busy in the kitchen by herself. When Chen Xiao tried to help, he was shooed out!
"Thanks, but you should rest. And please, spare the shredded potatoes!"
Chen Xiao came out, feigning anger. He’d only cooked shredded potatoes with green peppers that one time, and now he was permanently nailed to the pillar of shame for it.
The next morning, Chen Xiao took 10,000 points of critical damage!
"Chen Xiao, didn’t you say we’d battle until dawn? Is this the kind of service I get for my 2 million?"
I... Chen Xiao wanted to flip over and fight another round, but he was truly drained of stamina. He had fought his way through four "ball games" last night, and now his head was spinning!
’Alright, no excuses. I surrender!’
He secretly swore to work hard on his missions. When his Endurance reached 200, he would make Zhao Xiangjun sing "Conquer"—lying down, on her stomach, in every possible position!
Since they both had to go to the office, they fooled around in bed for a bit before getting up and heading to their respective jobs.
After dinner last night, Chen Xiao had dragged Zhao Xiangjun out to take the Wisdom Realm R7 for a spin for the first time.
To his surprise, while Zhao Xiangjun’s driving was a little rusty, she was very steady behind the wheel. With a bit more practice, she’d be a natural!
The Wisdom Realm R7 had smart driving from parking spot to parking spot, so Zhao Xiangjun had no problem with it now. She could just get in, rest her hands on the steering wheel, and let the car drive itself.
Today, the two of them went down to the parking garage together. Chen Xiao watched Zhao Xiangjun drive the Wisdom Realm R7 out of its spot before getting into his own CLS and heading to the office.
Honestly, after experiencing the R7’s zero-gravity seats and smart cockpit, driving the Mercedes-Benz CLS felt completely bland.
When he got to the office, he saw Ma Jing hunched over her computer working on a spreadsheet. He paid her no mind and opened up League of Legends to start his "work."
As a salesman, time in the office was incredibly boring. A sales position was naturally meant to be spent in a client’s office, drinking tea and chatting.
When Bai Lu arrived, he was in the middle of a game he hadn’t finished. He called Ma Jing over to take his place and continue playing for him to avoid being reported for being AFK!
Ma Jing said with a pained expression, "Brother Chen Xiao, I’m already so busy, and you’re making me do this for you? That’s going too far!"
He asked, surprised, "You’re an assistant. How busy can you be? There are only a few people in the department right now."
"Huh? Didn’t you see the tasks assigned in the work group chat?"
A work group chat? The one with just Yuan Kai, Ma Jing, and him? He never looked at it. It was always just Yuan Kai posting some corporate self-help fluff or company rules and regulations. Chen Xiao had always treated it like a fart in the wind and never paid it any attention.
"Yesterday, Manager Yuan added the new President Hou to the group, and President Hou posted new requirements for our work!"
Only then did Chen Xiao pick up his phone, open the work group chat, and glance at the history.
It would have been better if he hadn’t looked. After reading it, he stared at Ma Jing, completely bewildered. "Is this President Hou a clown sent by the monkeys?"
Ma Jing shushed him, telling him to keep his voice down.
This President Hou wasn’t like Yuan Kai. He was President Feng’s senior apprentice brother, as well as the company’s Vice President and Chief Scientist. He was second to only one person and above tens of thousands!
Hou Fei had posted a few work requirements in the group. He wanted all sales staff to create an annual OKR, a semi-annual OKR, a quarterly OKR, and a monthly OKR. He required goals, process breakdowns, specific action plans, and everything had to be quantifiable and implementable.
’Holy hell, this bastard shows up and immediately assigns a bunch of bullcrap essays.’
And if that wasn’t enough, he also required sales staff to write a daily itinerary before going out, and to debrief and write a daily work report upon returning!
No wonder Yuan Kai and Ma Jing had been hunched over their computers, writing furiously since this morning!
Ma Jing had it easier. As an administrator, she only had to write the daily work plan and report. The task was much heavier for Yuan Kai and Chen Xiao!
Chen Xiao thought for a moment. ’If I don’t do it, it means I’m not cooperating with Hou Fei’s very first work assignment since taking office, which isn’t justifiable. But actually doing it? That’s impossible!’
After some thought, he said to Ma Jing, "Xiao Jing, how have I been treating you?"
Ma Jing replied with a guarded expression, "Okay, I guess... No, wait, just so-so!"
She had clearly seen through his ill intentions.
"When I have good food, I think of you. When I have something fun to do, I think of you. What you just said really hurts my feelings!"
Ma Jing rolled her eyes. ’You have the nerve to say that? I’m too embarrassed for you to even call you out!’
’The so-called "good food" is the extra takeout you order when you go out for lunch that you make me finish. The so-called "something fun" is your League of Legends, which I have to continue playing for you when you don’t have time.’
’You pull this kind of crap and still have the audacity to talk about "feelings"?’
