Hu Shangke finalized the sale of assets and signed a contract to become the general manager of Ah Ruo's company. Ah Ruo then tasked him with transferring 99% of the company's shares to Chen Yan as repayment for a family favor. She also gave Hu Shangke a beauty salon membership card, hinting at his potential and suggesting he might use it for a girlfriend.

Mostly acting on impulse!

Of course, this tactic doesn’t work on those jerks. It only works on honest guys.

Poor Hu Licking Dog had no idea, a mere ripple was forming in his heart, while the young lady from Port City in front of him was already plotting how to make him a "devoted ex"!

Hu Shangke’s thoughts at this moment were simpler.

If you meet a good person, get married. If you meet an important person, start a career. If you meet a rich woman, marry and start a career!!

Instantly, the Licking Dog DNA was activated!

·

"What? You’re dating that Ah Ruo?"

Chen Yan stared wide-eyed at Hu Shangke standing before him.

Hu Licking Dog looked every bit as cheerful as spring!

"Actually, we’re not really dating, just... we’ve tried going out twice recently, but I feel it’s going pretty well. I think she’s happy when she’s with me."

Hu Shangke came today to deliver the stock transfer documents to Chen Yan.

The equity transfer was complete, and there were some documents that required Chen Yan’s signature.

Regarding the Liu family gifting five billion in assets, Chen Yan wasn’t surprised at all — Liu Jianshan got a year and a half of life extension, and that’s the reward.

The Liu family was generous, and this matter was handled to Chen Yan’s satisfaction; it was thoughtful and not troublesome.

No fuss, saving him a lot of trouble while doing it discreetly.

The most important thing is, they’ve also formally recruited Hu Licking Dog, a tool for managing his business, into their fold.

Everything was well planned out before him!

Genuine aristocratic methods, indeed extraordinary.

Truly puts one at ease!

It’s been a month since the property transfer, and now Hu Shangke has left his previous company and officially joined this asset management firm.

He left his previous company with a hefty commission on brokerage fees, and now his pockets were fuller than ever.

Initially, he was prepared for the fact that dating a rich lady like Miss Ah Ruo would cost him dearly.

He didn’t expect that, hey! He spent some money, but ended up with even more in return!!

He’d treat her to a lavish meal, and she’d casually accept it only to have a valuable gift sent over in return.

He’d invite her to a movie, and she’d respond by gifting him a men’s tie.

Stuff like Bulgari jewelry, top men’s fashion brand ties, and suits.

And on his first official workday, she gave him a Rolex Submariner.

To a wealthy young lady, these things aren’t really expensive, they’re nothing special, and she maintained a balance of "we get along well but not too intimately."

But to Hu Shangke...

Holy crap!

Poor Hu Licking Dog, never met a girl in his life who treated him so well!!!

Yesterday she sent him a pair of "collar stays"!

Yes, they’re called collar stays!

This thing, Hu Shangke, an ordinary guy, had never even heard of before!!

Wearing a suit with a dress shirt, there are actually such things as collar stays?

In formal high-end occasions, shirts have a hidden pocket inside the collar where a piece of hardened material is inserted to make the collar look crisper.

This thing is called a "collar stay."

Hu Shangke says, you live and learn!

He used to wear suits, after all... he was in real estate. But collar stays, he’d never encountered.

Moreover, the collar stays Miss Ah Ruo gave were made of pure gold!

At the current gold price, this pair of collar stays is worth a month’s salary for an ordinary worker.

Hu Licking Dog and Miss Ah Ruo went on two or three dates, costing him nearly thirty thousand.

To him, that’s already quite a splurge!

Unexpectedly, she spent nearly three hundred thousand on him in return!

For the first time in his life, he realized that love could actually be profitable?!

Hu Licking Dog was moved to tears.

·

Alright, Chen Yan was a bit confused too. What was Miss Liu from the Liu family up to?

Him befriending himself, Chen Yan could understand. Befriending people around him, also not surprising.

After all, these days, Miss Ah Ruo had been out shopping and getting beauty treatments with Lu Sisi several times already.

But, using a beauty tactic on Hu Licking Dog?

Isn’t that going a bit overboard?

"Dude, I can’t say much about your relationship, but you have to think it through yourself." Chen Yan lit a cigarette for Hu Shangke, "After all, given her family’s situation, there’s quite a gap between you two. It’s best not to let yourself get too invested."

Hu Shangke’s expression changed slightly, but he didn’t look surprised or upset. Instead, he nodded, "Don’t worry, Old Chen, I know what’s going on. I don’t have the destiny to marry into a wealthy family.

But, Ah Ruo is really nice. I’m happy being with her— honestly, no woman has ever been this good to me. I... just want to follow my feelings.

Even if there’s no future, I want to have a relationship I won’t regret."

Alright then, Chen Yan sighed.

He’s tried to persuade him, but in the end, it’s his own feelings, so it’s up to him to decide.

In fact, guys like Hu Shangke reflect the reality of many men in today’s society.

Many men have never really experienced what it’s like to be treated well by a girl.

This society, from top to bottom, from public opinion to families, teaches men to treat their girlfriends and wives well.

But truthfully, many men have never felt what it’s like to be well-treated by a girlfriend.

Otherwise, those short videos of girlfriends buying graphics cards for their boyfriends wouldn’t be so popular on social media platforms.
