Willing to be your little lapdog

As Chen Zhang spoke, he extended his hand.

"This... it seems like there's not enough space here." Zhang Yang looked at the emergency exit corridor and hesitated before speaking.

"It's nothing, just a handshake, a few gestures will do," Chen Zhang said casually.

"Just a couple of simple moves?" Zhang Yang asked again, confirming, "Regardless of winning or losing?"

"I mean what I say, come on!" Chen Zhang said with a smile, extending his hand.

A moment later, dust rose up in the corridor.

A figure tumbled down the stairs.

Are you alright?

Zhang Yang peeked out and asked a question.

"It's nothing, it's nothing!" The figure at the bottom of the stairs stood up, dusted himself off, and his eyes were filled with excitement and unparalleled joy. "Hahaha, that was great! It's been so long since I've had such a great fight!"

Chen Zhang took three steps at a time and went upstairs again.

"Brother, you've probably heard of me from Li Xingyu, Chen Zhang!" He extended his hand. "I'll be your friend."

"Zhang Yang." Zhang Yang extended his hand and shook his. "You don't even know who I am or what my background is, yet you want to be friends with me?"

"It doesn't matter." Chen Zhang shook his head. "When I make friends, I don't care about their background or whether they're rich or poor, as long as they're to my liking. I think you're quite to my liking, so I want to be your friend!"

Zhang Yang sensed boundless knowledge and confidence in his words.

It's likely that only someone from a family with his background could have the right to say something like, "I don't care about other people's backgrounds or abilities."

"Um... Brother Chen, can I leave now?" Zhang Yang was actually just trying not to offend the man in front of him; as for whether or not he would make friends with him...

He was just saying it casually, how could he take it seriously?

"In such a hurry to leave? Something up?" Chen Zhang patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder with a smile. "Okay, you can go ahead if you have something to do. Oh, by the way, let's exchange contact information."

Zhang Yang nodded, took out his phone and exchanged contact information with Chen Zhang, then said goodbye and left.

Chen Zhang stood there, staring at Zhang Yang's retreating figure for a long time...

··

Downstairs, Zhang Yang saw Li Xingyu's Cullinan.

"Young Master Zhang, Young Master Zhang, over here..."

The car window rolled down, Li Xingyu leaned out to greet him.

Zhang Yang casually opened the car door and got in.

"Young Master Zhang... Brother Chen?" Li Xingyu asked impatiently.

"Nothing much, I just sparred with him a bit," Zhang Yang said casually. "Chen Zhang... seems alright, I guess."

"That's because you're to his liking." Li Xingyu shook his head. "If he's friendly to you, you'll naturally feel at ease, but if you offend him... I can't afford to mess with him, so I can only avoid him."

"Why would I bother with someone like that?" Zhang Yang laughed.

Li Xingyu didn't say anything, glanced at Zhang Yang twice, and then said, "Why do you think he only stares at me? You're so handsome, and you're his type, why doesn't he stare at you?"

"No, Mr. Li, what you're saying..." Zhang Yang's scalp tingled.

Damn... that's impossible, right?

No, no, people mainly look at family background. Although he is rich, his background is shallow, let alone his family background. Of course, that's impossible.

Around three or four in the afternoon, Zhang Yang drove home.

Ignoring her own pain, Shi Xuan ran out and threw herself into his arms.

"Oh, right, I ate quite a bit of your food," Shi Xuan said, her face flushed and a little embarrassed.

"I can tell." Zhang Yang glanced at Shi Xuan's bulging belly.

A girl like her, with such a great figure, will naturally show a little belly if she eats even a little more.

"Are you still able to walk?"

"I'm much better now, I can walk without any problems," Shi Xuan said.

"If there are no problems, come with me." Zhang Yang waved his hand, gesturing for Shi Xuan to get in the car. "Let's go shopping."

Since I was bothered by Shi Xuan's hard work last night, I'll reward her with a shopping spree tonight.

Zhang Yang never mistreats anyone.

That evening, Zhang Yang naturally took Shi Xuan on a shopping spree at SKP. Along the way, they spared no expense, buying designer bags and limited-edition skincare gift sets with a wave of their hands.

Shi Xuan followed beside him, her heart pounding, once again experiencing Zhang Yang's wealth.

"That's enough, that's enough. Any more, I can't carry any more." Shi Xuan was filled with happiness, her hands full, and she barely managed to free one hand to pull Zhang Yang and persuade him.

"This is nothing," Zhang Yang said, glancing back and helping Shi Xuan carry her things.

There are actually a lot of items, but none of them are particularly expensive.

At least in his eyes.

Aside from that bag worth over 100,000 yuan, the other miscellaneous items only amounted to a few thousand or tens of thousands of yuan.

Well, in total it's only around two hundred thousand.

"Money spent will come back again." At least for Zhang Yang, he wouldn't dare to be so arrogant as to treat hundreds of millions as nothing, but a mere few hundred thousand was just a small amount that he could easily spend and quickly return to. It was nothing to him.

Night fell over the Beijing, and the sky became completely dark.

After wandering around for a long time, Shi Xuan finally patted her little belly.

"Hungry?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile.

Shi Xuan nodded shyly.

Zhang Yang casually opened the reviews and quickly filtered through them.

First, I selected nearby restaurants, then prioritized highly rated ones, and finally prioritized higher-priced ones. A dozen or so restaurants with extremely high per-person costs, either Michelin or Black Pearl ratings, were lined up in front of me.

Zhang Yang randomly chose one and called to ask.

What a coincidence, there's a seat available.

A short while later, the two went straight to the restaurant and sat down in the best seats.

A gentle evening breeze caressed my face, and I gazed at the distant Beijing skyline, a scene of twinkling lights.

The two sat facing each other, eating their food and chatting leisurely.

Time seemed to slow down, and I felt endlessly comfortable.

"When should we meet next?" Shi Xuan rested her chin on her hand, revealing her fair shoulders and sexy, elegant collarbone.

"It's simple... When you miss me, just take out your phone, tentatively ask 'Are you there?', and then wait anxiously for my reply," Zhang Yang said casually.

"Oh? So I'm a simp?" Shi Xuan said with a light reproach. "I won't... I'll call you if I miss you, and if you don't answer, I'll... I'll call you nonstop."

"Then you're finished. Just wait until I block you," Zhang Yang said with a smile.

Will they release me?

"It depends on my mood."

"Then... then I'll just be a little simp, hmm, a simp with a great body, who'll dance just for you, the most special one," Shi Xuan said, biting her lip.

Zhang Yang put down his water glass and looked at Shi Xuan.

Watching this stunning girl from Beijing Sport University so casually say to him that she wanted to be his lapdog, he was shocked.

To be honest, this feeling is really hard to describe.

Of course, he was just joking. If all the girls were the kind who lost themselves, or even loved him blindly, that would be too boring. A puppet that obeys his every word is naturally not as interesting as a living person with personality, joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

After dinner, it was getting late.

Shi Xuan has missed a day of class today, and her roommates have covered for her, but this can't go on forever.

So, she has to go back today.

At the entrance of Beijing Sport University, Zhang Yang stopped his car, leaned against it, and was embracing and kissing Shi Xuan for a long time.

"Go ahead, there are too many people coming and going."

Zhang Yang casually patted Shi Xuan's slender waist.

People were coming and going at the school gate. He leaned against Ghost and gave the long-legged beauty of the department a farewell kiss, which was naturally quite eye-catching.

It's likely that soon, gossip will circulate again about a girl from school kissing her rich boyfriend goodbye at the school gate.

"So what if they see? I just want to announce that I'm taken," Shi Xuan said, tilting her fair and beautiful face up. "Zhang Yang, kiss me again... just once."

She pleaded softly.

"Haven't you kissed enough yet?" Zhang Yang looked at Shi Xuan's upturned face, her moist lips, and most importantly, her hopeful eyes, and had no choice but to let her be. "Well, we've kissed enough, let's go."

Shi Xuan was completely satisfied, then, carrying her overflowing shopping bags, she kept turning back to look at them.

They finally disappeared into the campus.

Zhang Yang watched Shi Xuan leave before getting into the Ghost and heading straight back.

··

The girls' dormitory of the Department of Beijing Sport University.

Shi Xuan gently pushed open the dormitory door, and immediately, her roommates rushed towards her.

"Xuanxuan, you're finally back."

"Wow! Hermes! And what's this... Helena Rubinstein's gilded necklace? And so many other things?"

"Xuanxuan, what have you done... You haven't hooked up with someone, have you?"

"What are you all saying? It's not like Xuanxuan has a super rich boyfriend? My god, this Hermes must cost over 100,000 yuan, oh my god."

Amidst the screams, the group of girls huddled together, their gazes towards Shi Xuan filled with a strange mix of emotions.

Shi Xuan was too embarrassed to ask such a question directly.

She took a few steps forward, accidentally pulled on something, and her expression inevitably showed a strange look.

They're all girls, and they both have incredibly sharp eyes.

At that glance, everyone immediately noticed the problem.

"Oh my god? You didn't... give it away, did you?"

"So fast? How old is he? He shouldn't be that old, right? Everyone knows you Shi Xuan, have incredibly high standards."

The girls chattered amongst themselves, constantly pressing for answers.

"Oh, please don't ask anymore. I'll just share my skincare products with you." Upon hearing this, Shi Xuan couldn't help but blush. She went to her bed, picked up her pillow, and covered her face.

Nearby, a girl was looking at her phone when she suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"Everyone come quick! Someone posted a photo in the group chat. If I'm not mistaken, the person in the photo..."

She glanced at her phone, then at Shi Xuan on the bed.

The sisters immediately gathered around, eager to see what was going on.

In the group chat.

Which department's girl at our school got snatched up by a rich guy from outside the school?

[With legs that long, you must be in the performing arts, right?]

[She looks like Shi Xuan from the arts and culture system.]

[Wow, that guy is way more handsome than any of our school's so-called heartthrobs...]

Photos were also posted in the group chat.

The photo shows the streetlights.

The air around Ghost was thick with the scent of money, and two figures were locked in a passionate kiss.

The girl had long, straight black legs; she was clearly Shi Xuan from their dorm. But then look at the boy.

He was tall and handsome, with a profile so striking it was almost unsettling.

He's like a male protagonist from a novel who has stepped into reality.

That charisma, that physique—absolutely stunning! And with Ghost beside him, isn't this just a dazzling, heaven-sent god?

"Wow! Xuanxuan, you've actually gotten on the radar of your crush!"

"Speak quickly, tell the truth, we need details, do you understand? Details, tell me the details..."

"Sisters, grab pillows and throw them at her! You, Shi Xuan, you've been hiding your crush from us all this time, how long are you going to keep it a secret?"

All they felt was envy and jealousy.

They'd all be willing to sleep with such a perfect male god! But compared to Shi Xuan, they still have some self-awareness.

Although they are all beautiful girls from the Department of Physical Education and Arts, beauties are still divided into different levels. In their department, Shi Xuan is undoubtedly the most beautiful girl in the department. Whether it is her figure, appearance, or temperament, she is the best.

They naturally felt inferior to them.

Shi Xuan's arms were being pulled and tugged by her roommates, who insisted that she explain herself.

She could only offer a brief description to avoid making them jealous.

For example, there's a swimming pool several tens of meters long, a basement with its own audio-visual room, wine cellar, and spa, a nanny's room with suite design, a garden of several thousand square meters, top brands everywhere, and chandeliers worth the price of a house.

"Hmm, I probably ate several thousand pounds for breakfast today," Shi Xuan said seemingly casually.

"Versailles, keep going, Versailles. Oh, right, what's the important part?"

"Yes, that's the important part, we need to hear the important part..."

Everyone was discussing it and pressing for the key points.

"What's the key point?" Shi Xuan asked, looking bewildered.

"What do you think? Of course, it's all about the little things you do with your crush, um... how's he in bed?" a girl suddenly asked.

"How can I tell you such a private matter? Who knows if you'll exaggerate and spread rumors?" Shi Xuan wrinkled her nose slightly and said, "Anyway, anyway..."

She pondered for a long time, but she herself lost her composure first.

Because she recalled the scenes from last night, those scenes kept replaying in her mind, and in a daze, a dreamy smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.

A hush fell over the surrounding area.

In a daze, everyone seemed to empathize, well, they were overly projecting themselves onto the situation.

In the following days, Zhang Yang's first task was to meticulously plan Soup King Hotpot's expansion strategy.

With a huge amount of funding, coupled with Soup King Hotpot's own continuous cash flow,

Soup King Hotpot's expansion has been remarkably smooth, without any further bottlenecks.

In the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region -Hebei region, stores are destined to spring up everywhere.

Since its debut in Beijing, Soup King Hotpot has consistently ranked first in the hot pot category on local review sites for several weeks, enjoying unparalleled popularity and earning its reputation as the king of queues in Beijing.

Zhang Yang finally had some free time to accompany Tian Chuxi, who had been resting in Beijing for a while, out for the hot pot she had been craving.

"I almost got recognized just now." Tian Chuxi took off her mask, still a little shaken.

"Why don't you quit the entertainment industry? What's the point of making so much money if you're always living in fear?" Zhang Yang helped rinse the food and put some tripe into Tian Chuxi's bowl.

"Retire from the entertainment industry?" Tian Chuxi stared at Zhang Yang. "If you retire, will you support me?"

"If you need it," Zhang Yang said with a smile, "But I reckon with your personality, retiring from the entertainment industry is out of the question, and you certainly wouldn't let me support you, right?"

"Good to know. Girls should have their own careers after all, and this is mine." Tian Chuxi smiled and lowered her head to eat the tripe. "Mmm, the tripe is so crisp. Your products are always such a pleasant surprise."
