I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2596 - 1625: Tofu Pudding

What are we having for breakfast?

Of course, the local specialty of River City, hot dry noodles.

And three bowls of tofu pudding.

Sweet ones.

Who eats spicy tofu pudding anyway?

Plus a basket of soup dumplings.

Boss Jiang is paying. He ordered delivery, and breakfast for three people, including the delivery fee, only cost a little over thirty.

I can’t just stay over and freeload on food and drinks, right?

Boss Jiang may not be a community person, but he’s very particular about community manners. You give and take; in E Province slang, that’s called weighing it equally.

"Ordering delivery is really cheap now, isn’t it? It should be more expensive if we eat at the shop, right?"

While having breakfast, he mumbled about this at the dining table.

"It’s because several delivery platforms are in a price war right now, heavily subsidizing. Our company’s employees usually get coffee for one yuan."

Jiang Chen gave a surprised smile, "Really?"

"Yeah, didn’t you know?"

"I haven’t been ordering delivery much lately."

What Boss Jiang said was actually true; in Sha City, he was living off the Fang Family, without having to worry about food and drink costs.

But that wasn’t the point he answered.

Who blew the horn for the subsidy war?

It was Speed that first offered social security for the riders.

As the financial backer behind the scenes, Boss Jiang had no knowledge of this bloody new round of delivery battles.

Isn’t that absurd?

It can only be said that Boss Jiang’s position is too high.

If he handled everything personally, he’d really exhaust himself.

Some things, if the people below can handle them, they don’t report up.

"You’re losing out then, missing out on so many savings."

Wu Yufei sneered. She’s fully dolled up now, looking stunning, and in just one night, her whole demeanor had undergone a huge transformation, much more relaxed, as if she had laid down some heavy, old burden from her heart.

"Saying it like that, it really is."

Jiang Chen showed a wry smile.

Can you not smile wryly?

He did miss out on savings.

But whose savings were exactly lost?

Hiss.

Really—

No.

It doesn’t seem to matter.

He was unaware after all.

True.

The delivery platforms are fighting tooth and nail with hideous faces, but for Boss Jiang, it’s purely a drop in the ocean.

Would plucking a hair make a difference?

No.

Three trillion Australian Dollars is a joke.

But Boss Jiang’s dog-licking gold account, free from any regulatory body in the world, is genuinely sitting on five trillion in cash.

Although he racked his brain trying to wash this money into the "real world," the amount is simply too vast.

Just like digging a drainage channel for the Atlantic, there’s an effect, but efficiency is low, requiring long-term and stable patience.

Alright.

There’s no longer five trillion now; some has flowed out.

Although it’s simply changing place, from "virtual assets" to physical capital, the security of deposits is incomparable to any other form.

Hmm.

Does Boss Jiang feel anxious because of this, thinking he can’t just lie flat, should he make a move?

"No worries, he’s not short on money."

Qing Gege knows a bit about Boss Jiang’s background, but still didn’t reveal it in front of Wu Yufei.

The man is so sincere, having already opened up to her, what’s the necessity to put more pressure on him?

"Exactly. This is a perk for ordinary people. Capitalists should abstain."

Wu Yufei nodded with pursed lips, the two women harmonized without a hitch.

What’s going on?

How did their relationship leap forward overnight?

"What did you two talk about last night?"

Jiang Chen put a soup dumpling in his mouth, curiously asked. The soup dumplings should be thin-skinned and juicy to taste good, but this shop was rather subpar. It was cost-effective, but he would still give a bad review later.

"That’s... a secret between women."

Wu Yufei sneered, she finished the noodles, put down the chopsticks, "I’m full."

"Do you still have work today?"

Jiang Chen said.

The black silk office lady upstairs is off to work, and today isn’t the weekend.

"Hmm. Is there anything I can do to serve?"

"No need, you do your thing."

"Then... take your time to eat."

"Hmm, rest assured, I’ll make sure the door is closed properly."

Wu Yufei smiled, pursing her lips.

There’s no difficulty in parting, a normal goodbye; there wasn’t the slightest sadness when Wu Yufei left.

"Didn’t expect such a treasure girl hidden in your class."

After Wu Yufei left, Fang Qing, still eating breakfast at their home, gave her high praise.

"Which girl from Sha City High School isn’t a treasure?"

What is emotional intelligence?

"Underestimated you."

Qing Gege calmly held the tofu pudding, sipping it with white foam at the corners of her mouth. Jiang Chen pretended not to see and asked in puzzlement, "What?"

Qing Gege became more expressionless, lowered her head, and sipped the tofu pudding.

"Didn’t expect that even when you were so ordinary before, there were still girls who liked you."

Jiang Chen laughed slyly, finding it increasingly interesting, his smile more unrestrained and open.

"Never heard of beauty being in the eyes of the lover? That age is very pure, doesn’t care about fame, profit, poverty, or wealth, just whether there’s a feeling. Otherwise, why are there so many school beauties matching with Huang Maos? Once out of high school, let alone society, in university, would those idle young fellows from society even get a glance from the girls?"

"So you’re saying you enjoyed the perks of the high school era?"

"What perks? What had to happen to call it a perk, but I was clean with her." Jiang Chen retorted, confirming.

"Better stay away from her."

Jiang Chen smiled wryly with surprise.

"Saying that, I might disagree with you. Would I harm her?"

Although Boss Jiang intentionally left out a word, Fang Qing filled it in for her.

This is synergy.

"You wouldn’t harm her, but beauty arises from distance. Keeping a distance from her is the best care you can offer as an old classmate."

It’s not about eliminating rivals.

Not at all.

Last night on the terrace drinking, both she and Wu Yufei were indeed sincere with each other.

She isn’t anyone’s primary girlfriend.

So even if she were, she wouldn’t see Wu Yufei as a threat.

The other party also knew this well without hiding it.

Beauty.

Is a rare resource.

But depends on which level.

This is a peak match.

Ordinary players coming in are purely cannon fodder.

It’s because she knew the other’s untainted feelings that she didn’t want the other to get hurt. She spoke from a genuine bystander’s angle, an outsider’s angle, an old schoolmate’s angle.

"Some beauty should be left to imagination and memory to maximize its value."

Boss Jiang couldn’t help but think of the brief conversation on the terrace with the female classmate in the morning.

"I understand."

He chuckled lightly, "The reason why a white moonlight is ’white moonlight’ is because it hangs high in the sky. Coming too close turns it into tofu pudding."

Saying that, Jiang Chen reached out, drew a tissue from the napkin box.

"Wipe it off."
