What kind of company is it that can make money like this?
In just a month of not seeing each other, youâre living in a villa, youâve got a robot for a butler, and even bought a hill.
Look at this, the nannies, the bodyguards, the robots, itâs really impressive!
Please forgive my own good-for-nothing appearance.
âItâs no big deal, just acquired an existing company, then made a bit of money. I thought, why not move my parents into the city, so I just bought a villa. This whole ten-mile radius is mine. In the future, I might build one or two more villas,â Ye Fan said with a smile.
âBro Fan, do you still stand by what you said back then? You canât lie to me, or go back on it!â Zhao Xiaotian said nervously.
âWhat did I say?â Ye Fan was a little bewildered by this sudden question.
He hadnât caught on.
What promise is he talking about?
âBack in the hospital, you said that when I graduated, I could come work with you at your company. Iâve set my heart on following you, you canât just ditch me and not want me!â Zhao Xiaotian blurted out, visibly excited.
He had decided now, he would follow Ye Fan through thick and thin.
Ye Fan burst into laughter when he heard this.
So, it was about that.
It seemed that the kid had taken his past words as a joke or merely as words of comfort.
But now, having seen the evidence, he was truly convinced.
Of course, his own words definitely counted.
âDonât worry, my words definitely count. Iâm waiting for you,â Ye Fan reassured.
Of course! His buddy after all. How could he not look after him?
Moreover, he did believe in Zhao Xiaotianâs abilities.
The kid might seem unreliable at times, but when it came to integrity and crucial moments, he was truly remarkable.
One must not underestimate him.
âThatâs great, hehe,â Zhao Xiaotian laughed, sipping his tea.
This tea is really fragrant!
Although he didnât know what kind of tea it was, as long as it smelled good, that was enough.
âMhm, letâs go in a bit. Theyâve set the gathering at Chunlai Hotel,â Ye Fan said.
âNo worries, Iâll listen to you,â Zhao Xiaotian replied.
âYou know what, let me give you a tour of the place, how about it?â Ye Fan suggested.
After all, it was Zhao Xiaotianâs first visit here, and Ye Fan wanted to show him around the area.
The scenery here was not bad, and strolling while chatting was quite pleasant.
âSure, I was just thinking of taking a look around,â Zhao Xiaotian said eagerly.
He wanted to see the place.
As soon as he came in, he had been marveling at how nice the area was, how beautiful the scenery, but he hadnât seen it all yet.
âCome on, let me show you,â Ye Fan said with a smile as he pulled Zhao Xiaotian out of the villa and took him outside.
While walking, he introduced the various features of the place to Zhao Xiaotianâ the flower beds, the swimming pool, the fishing lake, the golfing area, and so on.
Zhao Xiaotianâs mouth was agape with shock.
Gosh, this place is just so complete and the scenery is unbelievably beautiful.
âXiaotian, when youâre free we can fish or play golf together. Iâm planning on adding a peach orchid and a garden here. When the peach blossoms are in bloom, it will be absolutely gorgeous,â Ye Fan remarked.
âYe Fan, Iâve realized that you really know how to enjoy lifeâyour living is like a fairytale,â Zhao Xiaotian commented.
Indeed.
With peach orchids and gardens to come, the enjoyment is real.
The lives of the wealthy are indeed different.
âItâs nothing special, mainly because my parents also like plants and flowers, they can purify the air and add to the beauty. You can do the same in the future. Thereâs no need to envy me,â Ye Fan said.
âPsh, you talk as if itâs that simple. If I had a third of what you have, Iâd be content,â Zhao Xiaotian said.
He felt that Ye Fan was inherently excellent, while he himself was quite the opposite, clumsy and unable to do much, not to mention his poor academics. If he could achieve one-third of what Ye Fan had achieved in the future, he would be happy, and his parents would be over the moon. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
To reach Ye Fanâs level seemed impossible to him.
But one-third seemed somewhat hopeful.
âDonât be so lacking in confidence. Where thereâs a will, thereâs a way, man conquers nature,â Ye Fan said.
Yes, one only knows the outcome of anything after putting in the effort.
Although he himself hadnât made much effort, mainly because he had the Systemâs help. Otherwise, he wouldnât have such a life. But Zhao Xiaotian had him, after all.
They were brothers!
If he was doing well, would he let Zhao Xiaotian suffer?
Impossible.
He would naturally help Zhao Xiaotian and give him a hand.
âOkay, with your words, Iâll put in the effort and learn from you,â Zhao Xiaotian said.
âGood brother, youâll have to help me in the future too. By the way, I wonder if weâll see Fang Dajian at this gathering,â Ye Fan said.
âWhat do you need him for? Weâll probably see him. That guy didnât make it to university because of his familyâs situation. He went to work and hasnât kept in touch with us, sigh,â Zhao Xiaotian said helplessly.
You should know, back in high school, the three of us were the best of friends.
We had planned to attend the same university.
But then, Fang Dajianâs family had some misfortune, his father passed away, and with only his mother left, he stopped his schooling and started working right after high school graduation.
Itâs been over a year since we last saw him; I have no idea how heâs doing now.
âHe should be back, and heâs probably not busy. My company is short-staffed, and Iâd like to give him a chance to try out,â Ye Fan said.
You need to have a few reliable people of your own in your company.
And he thought of having Fang Da Jian join him.
âAlright, no problem, Iâll keep an eye out for you,â Zhao Xiaotian said.
âItâs getting late, we should head out, itâs already five oâclock,â Ye Fan said, glancing at his watch.
It takes forty to fifty minutes to get to the city from here, and by the time he got there it would be nearly six oâclock.
Besides, it gets dark early in the autumn.
âOkay, letâs go then,â Zhao Xiaotian nodded and followed Ye Fan back.
Ye Fan drove his Audi to Chunlai Hotel, with Zhao Xiaotian sitting in the passenger seat, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the luxury car.
This car is really nice!
So cool!
âYe Fan, youâre not even twenty and youâre already a success. Look at you, a car, cash, a wife, a child, a house, youâve got it all. Youâre really at the peak of life,â Zhao Xiaotian said, counting off on his fingers.
Truly a winner in life.
âDonât say that, there are plenty of people way more impressive than me, Iâm nowhere near their level,â Ye Fan laughed.
Yes, many big shots are quite understated.
He wasnât really one of the big shots, nor could he consider himself a successful person.
All of this was given to him by the System.
âYouâre being too modest. Look at me, Iâm still just a freshman in college,â Zhao Xiaotian said somewhat resignedly.
âEnough, stop flattering me.. Iâm going to be flattered to death with your âpoisonous praiseâ!â
