I'm Just Here to Moach Food! (Chapter Requesting Investment and Collection)

The next day, early morning.

Li Xian, in a rare moment of leisure, got up unusually early. He had been staying here for a few days, seen the sunset glow and the moon rise over the sea, but he was missing out on the sunrise.

He had originally planned to experience that "Sun Rises in the East, I Am Invincible" feeling… cough… that kind of vibe, but alas, he still woke up late.

The clock on the wall hadn't even reached half-past six when Li Xian quietly got out of bed. However, as he excitedly pulled back the curtains to welcome the first rays of sunlight, the pleased expression on his face froze.

Damn it, old Sun, couldn't you sleep in a little?

Climbing up so fast in the early morning, rushing to the market?

Li Xian grumbled as he exited the sunrise chat group. The sun had already risen above the water, casting a golden hue over the entire beach, a breathtaking sight.

However, it wasn't quite the feeling Li Xian was after. He wanted the thrill of the sun just peeking over the horizon, the first rays piercing through the dawn.

It was a shame he found it hard to experience that thrill.

In Bincheng in June, excluding cloudy days, sunrise happens before 5 AM. With his usual habits, he could probably catch it if he stayed up all night at an internet cafe.

Of course, he couldn't let his early start go to waste. The view outside the window was quite nice, perfect for a Moments post.

Around 7 AM, Li Xian sat by the floor-to-ceiling window with his abalone seafood congee, beef-filled pancakes, and fresh milk.

"Click, click, click..."

A shot of the unbeatable sunrise sea view, a heart gesture, then a beauty filter for the steaming hot breakfast. Three photos were done.

After posting to Moments, he happily slurped his seafood congee, took a bite of the beef pancake, leisurely admired the view outside, and then lit a cigarette... This was the life!

Fuji New World Plaza, on the third floor, inside the Adidas store.

Li Xian, dressed in new gear, stood in front of the fitting room mirror. He wore a black long-sleeved t-shirt with a white Trefoil logo on the upper body, traditional black casual pants with white stripes on the lower body, and classic white sneakers with black accents on his feet.

Looking at the full outfit, Li Xian frowned slightly and muttered, "Is wearing a full Adidas set totally unfashionable...?"

"No, no..." The nearby sales associate smiled broadly and quickly said, "This whole outfit looks very handsome on you. With your height and build, you look even better than our models."

"Heh, I like hearing that." Li Xian's eyebrows lifted, clearly pleased with the sales associate's words.

He looked at himself in the mirror again, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Because of what you said, get me another set."

"Sure thing, I'll go get it for you right away." The sales associate's smile widened. Just as she turned to go to the stockroom, Li Xian called her back.

"Don't rush, don't rush... Change the shoes to skate shoes, the white ones I was looking at earlier. Also, the hoodies you recommended, give me two, one white and one black."

Thin hoodies, perfect for wearing on cloudy or rainy days. The hood could even block the rain, super convenient.

"No problem, I'll get you a new pair. Do you need size 43 again?"

"Uh-huh..." Li Xian replied. After the sales associate left, he continued to admire himself in the mirror. The longer he looked, the more handsome he felt he looked, practically perfect.

With his current 70-point looks, he could totally pull off this black outfit without looking tacky.

As for fashion sense, that was secondary for the current Li Xian. What he wanted now was to look clean, sharp, and comfortable. Casual sportswear like this was perfect for him.

His past dressing style was similar, mostly casual pants with sneakers, rarely wearing tight jeans or dress pants.

It wasn't that jeans and dress pants looked bad, they just made him look fat and felt constricting, which made Li Xian uncomfortable.

When choosing clothes, comfort should be the priority. Brands and styles weren't that important.

Li Xian used to be poor and didn't care about his appearance. Now that he had money, he wouldn't deliberately fuss over it either.

Of course, if someone helped him manage his image, he wouldn't mind wearing brands like Armani or Versace to show off.

Carrying the clothes, he followed the sales associate to the checkout counter. A quick scan with the barcode reader quickly tallied up the prices.

Sneakers 1099, skate shoes 799, casual pants 399*2, long-sleeved t-shirt 259*2, hooded sweatshirt 459*2... This shopping trip was equivalent to his purchases over the past few years.

"Customer, your total is 4132. Would you like to pay by card or cash?" the sales associate asked with a smile.

"Card, please." Li Xian took out his bank card and handed it to the sales associate, still a little surprised that he spent over four thousand yuan just on a few pieces of clothing.

Fortunately, he had kept some spare cash, otherwise, he wouldn't have had the confidence to stand here before the System paid him.

"Beep, beep, beep..."

After entering his PIN, the POS machine immediately printed a receipt. As the sales associate tore off the receipt, a System notification sounded in Li Xian's head.

[Quick Shooter effect triggered, Charm +10%, duration 4 hours.]

Well, so that's how this title works.

Spending money readily increases charm.

Not bad, not bad...

Li Xian's expression was quite a mix. He had never bothered to research the effects of this title, mainly because the name itself made him uncomfortable.

Quick Shooter!

Wasn't the System calling him a pervert!

But he never expected this damn title to have such a magical effect.

This charm-boosting effect was similar to his skill [Driving with One Hand is Super Cool], but it didn't require any specific props and had a duration, making it clearly more practical than [Driving with One Hand is Super Cool].

"Sir, here is your receipt." As the sales associate handed the receipt to Li Xian, she suddenly felt her vision blur. When she could see Li Xian clearly again, her heart skipped a beat.

He's so handsome, why didn't I notice he was this handsome earlier?

Oh my god, what's wrong with me? My heart is beating so fast.

The sales associate's cheeks flushed instantly. She hesitated to look directly at Li Xian's profile. As Li Xian took the receipt, she suddenly spoke, her voice as quiet as a mosquito's, "Sir, could you leave your contact information? I can notify you when new products arrive."

"No need, I rarely go shopping," Li Xian smiled and politely declined. He then picked up his bag and quickly left the store.

He slowed his pace after walking about ten meters. Glancing back at the store entrance, he saw the sales associate hadn't followed him. He patted his chest with a sense of relief. Phew, is this buff that powerful? I almost got taken advantage of by someone who's not even a 70-point beauty.

If the other person had been an 80-point beauty, he wouldn't have minded exchanging WeChat IDs to chat about life. But below 70 points? Forget it.

Li Xian carried his bag towards the escalator. He had checked the time; it was already 10:30 AM. There wasn't much time left until his appointment with Miss Dong. If he drove back now, he'd make it just in time.

When the escalator reached the first floor, Li Xian stopped. He didn't continue down to the basement level.

After some thought, he felt he should buy a small gift for her. After all, he had teased her for two days and was going on a date with the intention of getting a free meal. It wouldn't be right to show up empty-handed.

So, Li Xian found a directory sign, glanced at it, and then headed towards the cosmetics section.

Star Bay No. 1 Sales Office.

As it neared lunchtime, Dong Linlin had been lingering near the entrance. She kept checking her watch and looking outside, appearing eager for the date. In reality, she was filled with anxiety.

Sigh, why did I have to be so stubborn?

Maybe he eats delicacies every day.

What are you so excited about? It's not your family's treat.

Now look at you, you've painted yourself into a corner.

Dong Linlin blamed herself inwardly. If she hadn't impulsively decided to "slaughter" him to vent her anger, she wouldn't have gotten into this mess.

In fact, after agreeing to the date with Li Xian yesterday, she had already regretted it. From last night until now, she had been having second thoughts.

Moreover, she had realized afterward that it wasn't quite what she had imagined. She wanted to take him for a ride, but it was just a moment of anger. Once the anger passed, she would have let it go.

But in the end, the script seemed to have gone off track. Her goal wasn't achieved, and it looked like she was going to be the one taken for a ride.

Why should I have to pay?

You want to date me, and you expect me to bring money to treat you!

Dong Linlin pulled up her WeChat and looked. The words "Remember to bring money!" were particularly glaring. She fumed inwardly, Why should I bring money? I won't... No, I'm not going at all.

Li Xian's "brilliant move" had definitely poured fuel on the fire, making it hard for even a fire extinguisher to put out. He had no idea that for the sake of his mission, he had pushed this 80-point beauty to the brink of a mental breakdown.

It's the System's fault.

The System is shameless.

She got a cup of water from the water dispenser and took a sip, temporarily calming herself. Just then, a voice came from behind her. It was her manager, Zhao Xianrui.

"Linlin, can I discuss something with you?"

"Brother Zhao, what is it?" Dong Linlin turned around and asked.

"This." Zhao Xianrui seemed hesitant to speak, showing a wry smile before continuing, "Manager Wang from Juxing Entertainment, do you remember him?"

"Manager Wang?" Dong Linlin thought for a moment, and the image of a middle-aged man, in his forties, refined-looking with a receding hairline, appeared in her mind.

Thinking of this, Dong Linlin frowned, a look of disgust appearing on her face.

"Brother Zhao, please don't involve me in anything related to Manager Wang."

This Manager Wang was named Wang Haide, the owner of a small entertainment company. His main business was entertainment promotion and cultivating internet celebrities.

This person appeared refined and polite on the surface, but in reality, he was a debauched scoundrel with a heart full of malice.

Dong Linlin had interacted with him three months ago. Initially, she had a good impression of him, but after seeing his true colors, she had cut off all contact.

Since then, Wang Haide had approached her several times, and she had used excuses to avoid him. She hadn't expected him to find her manager this time; he was truly persistent.

"Sigh, I knew you'd react this way." Zhao Xianrui had anticipated this outcome and sighed. "Manager Wang wants to buy an apartment here. He's looking at a good unit, and there's a possibility of a sale. However, he specifically asked for you to handle it. This is quite awkward. I know he must have some ulterior motive, but I can't just turn him away. It's difficult to do my job."

"Brother Zhao, please don't tell me about this. I can't help. Find someone else to receive him..." Dong Linlin glanced around and said, "Xiao Qin and the others can handle this job."

"Okay, I'll talk to them later... Don't worry, I'll cover for you and make sure that guy doesn't bother you," Zhao Xianrui said with a smile.

In their line of work, it was incredibly difficult to avoid offending clients. However, when faced with a choice between a potential client and a capable subordinate, Zhao Xianrui, if he wasn't foolish, would definitely choose the latter.

"By the way, it's almost lunchtime. Where are you planning to eat?" Zhao Xianrui checked the time and asked.

"I..." Dong Linlin was about to answer when her phone rang. She shook her phone and said, "It's here."

Zhao Xianrui looked confused. At that moment, a striking matte black Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon pulled up to the entrance of the sales office, completely blocking the driveway.

Customers and employees looking at properties in the sales office couldn't help but be drawn to it. In a moment, their gazes involuntarily shifted. This steel beast was truly eye-catching.

"Whoa, whose car is that!" Zhao Xianrui exclaimed.

"Damn, that car is amazing!"

"Is... is that a limited edition G65? When did a G65 appear in Bincheng?"

"What's wrong? Is Bincheng lacking in some way that a G65 can't come in?"

"That's not what I meant. This car was just released not long ago, and currently, only the capital, Shanghai, and Shenzhen have them."

"Heh, don't be so surprised. People with money can get any car in the country they want, even if it's not officially released yet."

This steel beast might be the most expensive car here, but it was definitely the most eye-catching. The reason was simple: it was one of a kind.

Amidst the crowd's amazed gasps, a pleasant mechanical sound was heard as the driver's side door opened, revealing a handsome, slightly chubby man.

This handsome man was none other than Li Xian. After getting out of the car, he was a bit bewildered to see so many people gathered around.

What's going on?

Did I hit a doorstep?

No way, this doorstep is so low.

Li Xian rubbed his chubby face in confusion and scanned the surroundings. He happened to spot Dong Linlin and Zhao Xianrui not far away. He waved and said, "Manager Zhao... Miss Dong, hurry up, it's almost time."

Seeing Li Xian, Zhao Xianrui suddenly understood and said with a hint of knowing amusement, "Linlin, I didn't expect you to be so familiar with President Li."

Without waiting for Dong Linlin to explain, he strode towards Li Xian, "President Li, it's been two days since we last met, and you look even more dashing than before."

Li Xian's handsomeness wasn't obvious before, but now with a score of 70, he was strikingly handsome.

Zhao Xianrui's compliment was, in fact, the truth.

Tch, who's familiar with him?

Dong Linlin finally reacted, her expression a little unnatural.

However, her peripheral vision kept stealing glances at Li Xian's handsome face, and she wondered, Why does this guy look so much more handsome than a few days ago? His skin has gotten so much fairer. Did he use some skincare products?

Women are more perceptive than men. After just one look, she noticed the significant change in Li Xian's skin.

"President Li, let's set a time today. My treat."

"Manager Zhao, I was looking for..."

Zhao Xianrui was too enthusiastic, and Li Xian found it difficult to refuse him directly.

The other man was also sharp and immediately understood. "Oh, I almost forgot. I have some things to attend to today. It seems we'll have to do it another time."

As he spoke, he gave Li Xian a knowing look and then naturally moved aside, making way for Dong Linlin.

Dong Linlin walked up to Li Xian and, under a crowd of envious gazes, said somewhat uncomfortably, "Mr. Li, I..."

"Get in the car quickly, don't block the entrance. Don't delay your business."

Li Xian didn't waste words with her. He directly pulled her to the passenger seat and got into the driver's seat after she was settled.

The car slowly started and moved away, clearing a path. The onlookers gradually dispersed, leaving only the staff members, who seemed to have found new gossip. Two or three of them huddled together.

"What do you think President Li's background is?"

"I don't know. But buying two apartments here and driving such a nice car, his family must be incredibly wealthy."

"Spending twenty million on apartments and driving a car worth four or five hundred thousand, his family must be worth at least a few hundred million."

"Yeah, how come we've never heard of someone like that?"

"He's just low-key! Oh right, didn't Xiao Shuang handle this President Li before? Let's ask her for some information."

Just as they were about to find Qin Shuang for details, Zhao Xianrui suddenly appeared beside them. He coughed lightly and said, "I'm telling you all, don't spread rumors! Be careful, your supervisor might find out and deal with you one by one."
