Chapter 1: Break Up

“David, let’s break up!”

In a small and secluded forest on the side of the field in South River University.

Sarah Jensen said to her boyfriend, David Lidell.

“Sarah, why? What did I do wrong? Why do you have to be so heartless?” David asked, slightly emotional.

They were both friends from high school and had started dating when they were in senior three.

Even though David’s family background was not that great, he was very handsome, and he was good at studies, he was a typical boy who was considerate and family-orientated. When he was young and inexperienced in high school, he was naturally the crush of many of the female students.

Sarah was not bad either. She was the most beautiful girl in class, and although her studies were not as great as David’s, she was still one of the best students.

Teachers often criticized them when they started dating. The teachers only decided to close one eye on their relationship after the two of them promised multiple times that they would not neglect their studies and would break up immediately if their studies worsened.

Just as they said this, both of them managed to get into the national key university, South River University, and a lot of people envied them.

However, David did not expect Sarah to start to keeping her distance from him less than a year after he started university. Now, she was directly proposing breaking up with him.

In reality, at the start of the semester, he noticed the changes in Sarah. Whenever they were together, Sarah’s mind would be somewhere else.

Moreover, she also used a lot of excuses to turn down the dates he proposed.

On one of the Saturdays, he even saw Sarah get into the car of a playboy in their class. However, he still comforted himself that they were only going for a friend’s gathering.

However, Sarah’s proposal to break up today shattered David’s imagination.

“David, let’s part ways without hard feelings and leave a beautiful memory for the both of us, okay?”

“Sarah, tell me, is it because of Leo Tate?”

“What if it is?”

“Sarah, Leo is famous for being a playboy in the university. He even got a female student pregnant last semester, don’t you know that?”

“Leo explained it to me. It was a mistake after both of them were drunk. Besides, that girl is the one who made the first move. He even compensated the girl after that.”

“Sarah, don’t believe him. He’s lying to you. He’s dating a lot of people at the same time.”

“Alright, David, I am just here to tell you about this. Please stop pestering me. Goodbye.”

After Sarah said that, she turned around to leave.

However, David stopped her.

“Sarah, listen to me. Leo is not a good person. Don’t be fooled by him. Did he force you to do this? I’m sure he did! I’m going to look for him!”

Sarah flung David’s hand away and said, “David, stop lying to yourself and others. Leo didn’t force me. I’m willing to do this. I don’t want to be with you anymore. After we graduate, we’ll have to work hard to make money so that we can buy a house, a car, and pay back our loans. We’ll be tied to our housing loan forever. I want to eat good food, wear nice clothes, and use expensive things, do you understand? Do you see this bag on me? It’s the latest one from L Brand and it cost more than ten thousand bucks. I will never be able to enjoy this for the rest of my life if I stay with you. You will never be able to give me what Leo can give me.”

“But Leo is just playing with you. He won’t marry you. He’s ditched countless people already.” David tried hard one last time.

“Hey, hey hey, Mr. David Lidell, it’s not nice bad-mouthing someone behind their back.”

A voice entered both of their ears, and they turned to see Leo walking over, adorned in branded clothes. After this, he immediately reached out to grab Sarah’s waist.

“Leo, you’re here.” Sarah leaned on Leo’s body, appearing cute and helpless.

When David saw Leo holding Sarah’s waist the moment he arrived, and the way Sarah leaned on Leo, he felt as if his heart was bleeding.

He knew nothing he said would work anymore. Once a woman had a change of heart, it would be difficult for her to turn back. He did not want to see them being lovey-dovey and sweet with each other. Hence, he said to Sarah,

“Sarah, one day, you’ll regret the decision you made today.”

Then, he got ready to leave.

“Wait,” Leo called out to David.

Then, he turned around to say to Sarah, “Sarah, you should leave first. I’ll go get you after I exchange a few words with David.”

“Leo, let’s leave together! I’ve broken up with David, so there’s nothing to talk about.”

“Don’t worry, it’s just a few words. It won’t affect our relationship.”

“Alright, you should hurry. I’ll wait for you at the entrance of the campus.”

After Sarah said that, she looked at the two of them before leaving.

“Just spit it out. If you want to see me being battered and bruised after the loss of my love, I’m afraid I’m going to have to disappoint you. There are so many girls out there and I won’t keep pursuing the same one.”

Even though David’s heart was bleeding, he still said this stubbornly. He could display his devastation and heartbreak in front of Sarah and lose all of his dignity, but he would never show Leo this side of him.

“David, I only want to tell you something.”

After Leo said that, he took two steps forward and whispered in David’s ear,

“Sarah has such a hot body. You’ve been together for so long, I didn’t expect you two to still be…alright, I should go now. Sarah is still waiting for me and I’ve booked a presidential suite in Golden Leaf Hotel! Do you know that place? It’s an eight-star hotel and you’ll never be able to afford a meal there for the rest of your life.”

Leo turned around and left after he said that. As he was walking, he laughed carefreely. “Hahaha!”

After David heard what Leo said, he felt dizzy.

He had been with Sarah for four years, and throughout those years, they only held hands and kissed. Whenever David tried to do something more, Sarah would stop him. She said she would only give him the best thing after they were married.

However, he did not expect Sarah to do it with Leo after a few days of being together…

At this moment, David felt his blood rushing wildly to his brain and his eyes turn red. He could not control it anymore. A mouthful of blood sprayed out of his mouth and he passed out on the ground.

When David woke up, he was in the university’s infirmary.

As he was about to get up, a voice sounded in his head.

[Ding!

[Binding the super lavish system…

[10%...

[30%...

[50%...

[80%...

[100%...

[Binding complete.]

Then, a screen that only David could see appeared in front of his eyes.

[Host: David Lidell

[Balance: 10000000000000000 dollars

[Body: 15 (Weak)

[Mind: 28 (Normal)

[Skills: Can be added freely, needs to use up lavish points

[Lavish points: 0]

Before David could understand what was going on, he heard the sound in his head again.

[Welcome, host David Lidell, to the super lavish system. This system is a one-to-one single binding system and cannot be transferred. Once the host dies, the system will disappear.

[The host’s balance is already bound to all the banks around the world and the host can use their fingerprints, face, or pupils to pay.

[How to use the system: The host, David Lidell, will obtain one lavish point after spending 100 million dollars. The lavish point can be used to better the host’s body, wits, skills, and also their skills.

[Rules: There is only one rule. The host is forbidden from negotiating the price of whatever the host wants to buy. A beggar who negotiates the price will not be worthy of the system.]

David was still contemplating the genuineness of this super lavish system when the door of the infirmary was pushed open.

A beautiful woman in her thirties came in wearing a white coat.

This was the doctor overseeing the university’s infirmary. Her name was

Christine Shelton, and she was 32 years old. She had been married for a few years and she did not have kids yet. Furthermore, her husband was the boss of a small company.

However, it was rumored that her relationship with her husband was not good, and they were in the middle of filing for a divorce.

It was rumored that in order to work with a much bigger company,

Christine’s husband asked her to drink with his clients. Furthermore, he even spiked her drink so that she would spend the night with the company’s boss.

Eventually, Christine found out beforehand and she ran back to the campus while he went to the restroom. Then, she stayed on the campus and never went home. Recently, she began looking for a lawyer to file for a divorce with her husband.

“You can leave now that you’re awake. After you go back, remember to eat more food that will help with replenishing your energy and vitality. Your body is weak, and you can’t let this go on. Be more optimistic. Don’t let trivial things affect your mood.”

Christine saw David had opened his eyes in the bed and said to him.

“Thank you, Dr. Shelton. I got it.” David got up and walked out of the infirmary shakily. He was still feeling a little dizzy right now.

“Sigh, are students nowadays so infatuated with love?” Christine sighed sorrowfully.

Then, she thought about her husband. When they were in university, they were also crazily in love with each other.

However, he drugged her and did such a terrible thing for the sake of his company. If she did not find out in advance, she could not imagine what would happen to her. Until now, she still could not understand why he would do such a thing.

As David was walking on campus, a lot of students were pointing at him and making remarks when they saw him. It was because he was famous now.

There were a lot of couples getting together and breaking up at South River University, but this was the first time in history that a student vomited blood and passed out after breaking up. Moreover, with Leo deliberately telling everyone about the matter, David became famous in South River University in just half a day.

However, David was not in the mood to care about this. After he walked out of campus, he felt thirsty, so he went to the vending machine next to the university to buy a bottle of water.

When he was about to pay, David instinctively wanted to use the balance in his phone to pay. However, he suddenly remembered the binding of the super lavish system from earlier. Therefore, he decided to try it out to see whether it was legit.

With that, he chose to pay with his fingerprints.

[Ding!

[The super lavish system successfully paid three dollars.]

A bottle of mineral water rolled out from the vending machine.

“It works?”

David grabbed the bottle of water in his hand and murmured.

Then, David saw the information on the interface.

[Host: David Lidell

[Balance: 9999999999999997 dollars

[Body: 15 (Weak)

[Mind: 28 (Normal)

[Skills: Can be added freely, needs to use up lavish points

[Lavish points: 0]

“Hahaha!”

David burst out laughing suddenly.

The super lavish system was real.

If that was the case, from now on, he would be richer than anyone else in the world.

‘The richest man in the world? Pah!

‘The World's Billionaires by Forbes? Pah!

‘All of you don’t have as many zeroes even with your wealth combined.

‘From now on, I, David Lidell, will change the way I live.

‘I’ve been living too aggrievedly for the past 20 years. Over the next few decades, I want to live my life brilliantly and enjoy my life. I want to live my life without a care in the world.

‘I want to get back at all of the people who looked down on me.’

After David calmed down, he went to the eight-star hotel near the campus,

Golden Leaf Hotel, and was about to have a meal. He was a bit light-headed from hunger as he was walking.

This was the most luxurious hotel in South River province, and it was also the most expensive place around.

When David and Sarah walked past this place back then, Sarah said she dreamed about having a meal there.

“Sir, how can I help you?”

After David walked through the door, a tall and fair attendant approached him.

“I’m here to eat,” David answered.

“May I know how many of you are there?” The attendant asked politely.

“Just me.”

“Please come with me, sir.” The attendant gestured to David.

David thought the attendant would take him to the restaurant, but he did not think the attendant would take him to the front desk.

“Sir, do you have a member card?”

The receptionist at the front desk asked.

There were a few of them behind the front desk. The receptionists looked like air stewardesses. They were about 170cm and above, and they all had fair skin and long legs.

“No, I don’t,” David answered.

“Sir, I’m sorry, our food is all high-quality and they’re all imported from overseas. Plus, we dispose it if we can’t finish them on the day itself to ensure freshness, and that’s why the price of our food will be much higher than the ones outside. If you don’t have a member card, you’ll need to pay a certain deposit before you dine.”

“How can I get a member card?”

“Sir, if you top up one million dollars, you’ll be a normal member in our hotel. If you top up two million, you’ll be a premium member, and if you top up five million, you’ll be a VIP.”

“I’ll have one then.”

“Sir, may I know how much you want to top up?”

“Why don’t I top up 100 million first?”

“S-Sir, I beg your pardon? I didn’t hear you clearly just now,” the receptionist asked with a slight stammer.

“I said top up 100 million for me.”

“Sir, are you sure?”

“I am sure.”

“Sir, please wait a moment. Our manager is on the way now.”

Then, the receptionist took out a walkie-talkie and said, “Ms. Warner, are you around? Can you please come to the lobby?”

The receptionist felt that David was here to cause trouble because he did not

look like someone who would take out 100 million to top up his membership card. That was why she called the manager over.

“Got it.” A clear voice came from the walkie-talkie.

Soon after, a beautiful woman in her twenties walked over while donning a black suit.

This beautiful woman clearly seemed a rank higher than the rest of the receptionists no matter how David looked at her. It was no wonder she was the manager.

“What’s the matter?” The beautiful manager walked to the front desk and asked.

The receptionist from earlier whispered into the manager’s ear.

“Sir, may I ask if you want to top up 100 million to your member card?” The beautiful manager asked David.

“Yes,” answered David.

“Are you sure you want to top up 100 million dollars?”

“I am sure.”

“Sir, may I know which bank you will be paying with?” The beautiful manager started to operate the computer at the front desk as she asked.

“Whichever is fine.”

“How are you going to pay?”

“I’m using my fingerprint.”

“Alright, sir, please confirm whether the amount is correct. Then, click confirm and place your finger here.”

The beautiful manager turned the computer to David to let him look at the amount.

David looked at it and confirmed that it was 100 million. Then, he clicked confirm and placed his finger on the scanner.

Three seconds later…

A machine at the front desk rang.

“Payment successful…

“Successfully received 100 million dollars.”

In that second, the six to seven tall receptionists, including the manager, took in sharp breaths.

They changed from looking at David in disdain to admiration.

It looked as if they wanted to swallow David whole.

Pearl Warner had been a lobby manager in this eight-star hotel for more than three years. She had seen a lot of rich people and she had also seen a lot of them with a net worth of billions to tens of billions of dollars. After all, the people who could enter this place would at least be worth something.

Even though they could refund the money in the membership card and there were a lot of big conglomerates who would receive their guests here so they would top up to ten million dollars, this was the first time she had seen someone top up 100 million in one go. This person must have a net worth of tens of billions. If not, he would not have the courage to do this.

Although the people on the World’s Billionaires were top-ranked celebrities who were worth tens of hundreds of billions, after Pearl got into this circle, she learned that there were many invisible rich people in this world. The ones on the World’s Billionaires list might not even make up 1% of the actual figure.

Most of the rich people were very low-key, and this one in front of her was obviously one of them. Furthermore, he was definitely one of the richest ones.

He was so young, so he was definitely the superb son of an invisible family.

To be honest, when she first saw David, Pearl looked down on him. The clothes on his body might not even be worth 200 dollars in total. There were so many people like that on the street.

When the front desk said that David wanted to top up 100 million into his membership card, Pearl immediately figured David had to be here to pull a prank on them.

However, because of her professionalism, she still cautiously entertained David and even let him pay. She even wanted to see how David would act when the payment failed. Besides, she was ready call the security at any moment, but she did not expect the payment to go through. This showed that she really could not judge a book by its cover.

Pearl had already got into contact with the upper-class and she yearned incessantly for that status. She even dreamed about becoming one of them.

Even though a lot of nouveau riches hinted at her, Pearl was not interested in those chubby nouveau riches. Besides, most of them only wanted her body, and from what she knew, those people who hinted at her were not really rich.

They were all tactless and impulsive fake nouveau riches.

She hoped to be favored by a real nobleman. These people were mostly very low profile and this young man in front of her was obviously one of the best among them. He did not even bat an eyelid when he topped up 100 million dollars into his meal ticket.

This person fit her requirements. He was young, rich, and low profile. So, she decided to depend on him and decided that this would be the best chance for her to turn her life around. She could not miss this chance. Furthermore, she was very confident in her own qualifications.

Meanwhile, the receptionist who called the manager over with the walkie-talkie was feeling extremely remorseful now.

If she proceeded with the order for David, this would be her business. However, after she called the manager over, she could only watch from the sidelines.

After Pearl came back to her senses, she said to David, “Sir, please show us your identification card. I’ll help you with the membership procedures.”

David handed his identification card to Pearl.

To be honest, he could already see the other party was just being perfunctory.

They did not even ask for his identification, so how would they register a membership for him? It was clear that they did not believe he would top up 100 million dollars since they only asked for his identification after the payment went through.

However, David did not care. He had been looked down on for the past 20 years. Plus, the other party was pretty nice about it. If this was somewhere else, he might have already been kicked out by security.

“I am a student from South River University. From this day on, I will be eating all three meals here. Prepare the best ingredient as per your professional standards for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. If I don’t show up, just throw it away and continue to prepare the next meal.”

After David said that, the people in the room became fearful. If they were to use the best ingredient for all three meals, just his meal alone would cost hundreds of thousands every day.

Plus, they were supposed to just throw it away if he was busy and could not come. This was so extravagant! One could not even call him a nouveau riche. He was a god-tier billionaire!

Moreover, he was even a student at South River University. He was so extravagant at such a young age, so was he set to become the legendary top-tier handsome and tall rich man?

Everyone was starry-eyed when they looked at David. They all wanted to depend on this rich man. It would be fine even if they had to sacrifice something to do so.

They did not have excessive expectations to marry a son of a top-tier rich family like this. However, they would get a lot of benefits if they were able to curry some favors with him.

At this moment, if David gave out even a small hint, these people would probably line up to climb into his bed.

“Alright, Mr. Liddell, we will do so according to your wishes.”

After the membership was done, David was brought into a luxurious private room.

“Mr. Liddell, this is the best private room in our hotel. We will bring you the food soon. This is my name card, so please call me if there’s anything you need my help with. I will provide you with the best service.”

After Pearl said that, she handed her personal name card to David. This was not the official one from the hotel, but instead, she made this one herself and would only give them out to the people who fit her requirements.

David took Pearl’s name card.

When he took the name card, Pearl seemed to accidentally use her fair and thin hand to run across the back of David’s hand, causing shivers to run down David’s spine.

‘What a soft hand! This woman is so good at seducing others. What a minx,’

David thought in his heart.

Soon, the table was filled with food.

All of the world’s best food was here. There were lobsters, abalone, Alaskan King Crab, bird’s nest, tomahawk, foie gras, jamón, caviar, and so on.

Every one of those dishes looked amazing and appetizing.

There was also a Lafite from 1983.

All of these cost approximately over a million dollars. David could not eat all of it, but he did not care.

Now, he was so poor that money was all he had. If he could not finish them, he would just throw them away. He had all the money in the world!

David took a bite of everything on the table.

It was an eight-star hotel indeed, as everything smelled, looked, and tasted great.

“Mr. Lidell, how’s the food? Are you happy with them?” Pearl went behind

David and asked while bowing slightly.

Since they were at a close distance, David could feel Pearl’s hot breath on the nape of his neck. It felt nice.

“Pretty good. This place lives up to its reputation of an eight-star hotel. Everything smells, tastes, and looks great. I am very happy!”

“That’s great, Mrs. Lidell. Please enjoy your meal and don’t hesitate to call out to me if there’s anything you need. I won’t disturb your meal anymore.”

Pearl decided to leave when she thought it was almost time.

“Ms. Warner, look, I can’t finish all of the food and I keep feeling like something’s missing if I don’t have a beautiful woman accompanying me as I enjoy such good food. Will you do me the honor of dining with me?” David asked.

David truly felt that Pearl was not bad. She had a hot body and a cute face, plus, her outfit accentuated her natural advantages. Her scent could also arouse a man’s hormones. Any of her unintentional gestures would tickle his senses. Hence, it would be the ultimate pleasure to dine with such beauty.

“Um…Mr. Lidell, this is not appropriate! Plus, it's working hours for me,” Pearl said hesitantly.

She wanted to eat with David because this would be a chance to strengthen their bond, and she would honestly kill for a chance like this. Even though she was a lobby manager, she had never eaten a lot of this premium food before.

However, she understood that a woman should be reserved, and could not reveal herself fully. Hence, keeping her distance would be the best way to flirt with him.

The seduction of a fully naked woman was never as great as a woman wearing a see-through shirt.

Her working hours was just an excuse. The boss would even praise her if they knew she was dining with a VIP of this status.

Besides, she did not decline. She only said it was inappropriate, and this answer would trigger David’s competitiveness.

Sure enough, David spoke.

“What’s inappropriate about this? Come to me if your boss scolds you and I’ll go to him. If it doesn’t work, I’ll buy the hotel and make you the boss,” David said arrogantly.

“Then, I will accept your request.”

Pearl stopped being reserved and immediately sat down to open the wine for David. If she continued to make excuses, she might enrage David, so she had to handle this situation just right.

As for what David said about buying the hotel and making her the boss, she only smiled and thought nothing of it.

What a joke. This hotel would cost more than 15 billion if he wanted to buy it. Even though she had high hopes for David, she did not think David had this ability.

Now, there were a lot of people with net worths of billions, tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions. However, most of them obtained their wealth from stocks or other virtual items. There were not a lot of people who could directly take out tens of billions of dollars with a wave of their hand. Those people were the real aristocrats.

If David really bought Golden Leaf Hotel and made her the boss, she would be hell-bent on staying with David. She would even die for him.

David did not know what Pearl was thinking at this time. If not, he would buy it directly. This was nothing. He would buy it even if it was 30 billion, let alone 15 billion.

After this, the two of them finished this meal while chatting happily.

Chapter 2: South River International Residence

After David finished his meal and was walking out of the eight-star hotel, he looked at the hotel entrance behind him. Pearl and a few attendants were sending him off while bowing. At that moment, David felt that the world was truly wonderful.

‘Who is Sarah Jensen anyway?

‘If I am willing, I can have a harem right now.’

What should he do next?

Of course, he should buy a house.

David did not want to stay in the dormitory anymore. There were four boys in one room, but now, only two of them were actively staying there. The other two were renting a place outside of campus with their girlfriends.

Moreover, he heard his remaining roommate was also madly in love with his girlfriend and was also planning to move out.

David initially wanted to rent a house with Sarah outside of campus, but Sarah refused no matter what he said.

When he thought about Sarah sleeping with Leo, David felt a pang of pain in his heart.

‘F*ck, I should have just used force back then. I let that punk gain all the advantages now,’ David cursed in his heart.

At this moment, David’s crappy second-hand phone rang.

He took a look at the caller ID and saw that it was from his roommate, Patrick Reed.

Even though he had moved out to live a simple life with his girlfriend, he and David were still very close since they had stayed together for more than a year.

Besides, the rent for the dormitory and the tuition fees were bound together. Even though he did not stay in the campus dormitories, he had already paid the rent thus nobody took up his spot in the room, so he would occasionally go back to their dormitory to play games.

David answered the phone.

“Dave, where are you? The three of us are in the infirmary but Dr. Shelton said you left. I heard what happened to you. Don’t do anything stupid, keep an open mind. Out with the old, in with the new. When you feel better, we’ll host a blind date to find a better person for you.” Patrick’s anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.

David felt comfort when he heard that. He replied, “Pat, what are you thinking? Why would I do something so stupid? Don’t worry. I’ll come back soon.”

“You sure?”

“I’m sure!”

“Tell me where you are now. We’ll come to find you.”

“Don’t. I’m already home. Don’t worry. I’ll be back in two to three days.”

“Really?”

“Yes, really!”

“It’s good for you to go back and relax. Think about your family who loves you and us three.”

“Alright, I’m not that stupid. Don’t worry! I’m hanging up now!”

South River International Residence.

The houses here were the most expensive in South River Province.

The average price per square meter started from two hundred thousand dollars.

Of course, this place was also in the prime location.

The entire South River International Residence was surrounded by the River Leeds. There was only one exit, while the remaining three sides were all facing the river.

Hence, the view was spectacular.

There were only six buildings here, and each of them was 38 stories tall. The smallest unit would be 200 square meters while the biggest one would be more than a thousand square meters.

This was truly the gathering place of the riches.

Luxury cars were parked everywhere in the parking lot and one would be too embarrassed to drive their cars that cost less than millions inside.

David walked into the showroom of South River International Residence.

When he entered the lobby, it seemed a little empty. Five to six salesladies were sitting together while they chatted. When they saw David, none of them wanted to approach him.

The South River International Residence had been selling for three years and yet there were still unsold units because it was too expensive. A small unit would cost tens of millions, so not everyone could afford to buy it.

When it started selling, a lot of people came to view the houses. The ones who could afford to buy all them bought them in the past two years. The ones who could not afford them still could not afford them until now.

So, most of the staff who worked here since the start of the sale had already left. A lot of the sales ladies left with millions in their pockets.

After all, a unit would cost tens of millions or even hundreds of billions. They would be able to make a fortune with the commission alone. Back then, the commissions would be two thousandths and now, the new staff’s commission had increased to 1%. However, by now, it was very difficult to sell any of the units.

Thus, a lot of them only worked here because they were guaranteed a basic salary.

When they saw David, they could tell he was not here to buy a house based on his outfit. So, everyone continued to chat they did not plan to pay attention to him.

David felt a little awkward at this moment. The people chatting were clearly ignoring him and there was no one at the front desk. So, he did not know who to ask even if he had questions.

However, after David stood there for two to three minutes, a young woman about 26 to 27 years old walked out from the toilet of the showroom.

Jenny Ward started selling for South River International Residence last month. She only got in because her uncle gifted the boss ten thousand dollars worth of gifts.

She was from a small rural area. She thought she would make a fortune if she could come to such a high-end place to sell houses. However, after a month of working here, she did not even get a single customer.

She could count the number of customers coming to view the houses over the past month on two hands. When the customers entered the door, the old staff would fight to welcome them. They did not give her any chance at all. Hence, she did not sell a single house after more than a month of working here.

Today, she spotted a young man about her age standing in the lobby the moment she walked out of the toilet. Those old staff seemed to be ignoring him, so she walked over to him.

“Sir, are you here to view the houses?” Jenny walked to David and asked.

“Yes!” David answered.

Jenny was thrilled. Finally, she had a chance to bring a customer to view the house.

“What type of unit are you interested in, sir?”

“What type do you have?”

Then, Jenny proceeded to tell David a bunch of information about the houses.

There were not a lot of empty units left. So, David did not have a lot of choices.

In the end, David chose a 500 square meter penthouse on the 22nd floor of Block 3.

Jenny took the keys from the front desk and then they went to view the unit.

The moment the two left, the staff in the lobby began talking about them.

“He’s seriously here to view the unit? He seems to be wearing cheap clothes and he looks like a pauper to me. Does he know where he is?”

“Yes, he needs to work hard his whole life to afford one square meter. Only a newbie like Jenny would take him to view the unit. Isn’t this a waste of time?”

“He might be from a rural area and has no idea about the price of a house here. When he learns the price, he might be scared sh*tless, haha!”

“Yeah, let’s wait and watch him make a fool of himself later.”

Two hours later.

David and Jenny went back to the lobby of the showroom.

The two sat in the chairs on the side of the lobby. Then, Jenny brought David a cup of tea.

“Mr. Lidell, are you satisfied with what you saw?”

Jenny asked as she sat down opposite David.

“Not really. The location of Block 3 is not that great. Are there units in Block 1?”

David figured the location of Block 1 was the best. Since he wanted to buy a place, he would buy the best one. He had all the money in the world anyway.

“Please wait a moment, Mr. Lidell. Let me check for you.”

Jenny picked up the tablet and started looking for David.

“Mr. Lidell, since the location of Block 1 is the best, there’s only one unit left. It’s on the top floor and it’s a large loft-style penthouse. It occupies the 37th and 38th floors of Block 1, and it’s the best unit in Block 1. The total area is 1300 square meters, so it’s a little costly. I don’t recommend you taking this unit.”

“Oh? Can we look at that?” David did not even ask the price and he immediately wanted to see the unit.

“Yes, but…”

“Alright then, let’s go!” David interrupted.

Jenny contemplated and answered, “Alright, Mr. Lidell. I’ll go get the keys.”

After Jenny got the keys and the two were about to go to view the unit, an old staff member in her thirties who still looked very attractive spoke from afar.

“Jenny, are you going to look at the best unit in Block 1?” She was closer to the duo, so she heard their conversation.

“Yes, Ms. James.”

“Jenny, I don’t want to criticize you, but not everyone who drops by can view the units here, let alone the best one in Block 1. The interior of the unit was designed by a very famous designer from overseas. Who’s going to pay for it if there’s any damage?”

“Ms. James, I’ll be very careful!”

“Jenny, you’re new so you don’t know the rules here. You need a good eye if you want to work in this field. Look at him, do you think he looks like someone who can afford a unit here?”

Ms. James pointed directly at David and said.

“Ms. James, I trust that Mr. Lidell is not someone like that.”

“Sigh, it’s fine if you don’t want to listen to me. However, you have to mop the floor after you come out. Don’t leave any footprints, understand?”

“I understand, Ms. James.”

After Jenny said that, she led David to the best unit in Block 1.

The moment they stepped through the door, David was stunned. There was no doubt, this was the best unit as the decorations and design were all extremely luxurious.

David walked to the french window that was 3 meters high and more than 10 meters wide. As he looked out at the scenery in front of him, he felt like he was on top of the world.

“Mr. Lidell, this is the best unit in Block 1. The glass on the french window in front of you is bullet-proof glass imported from overseas. It’s 10 centimeters thick and it won’t break even if someone shoots a guided missile at it. Plus, the opacity is very low, so it won’t affect the sunlight at all. This window alone is over ten million dollars. Also, the spectacular chandelier above you is imported from France. There are more than ten colors which you can change from.

“This is the kitchen.

“This is the study.

“This is the wine cellar.

“This is the toilet.

“This is the drawing room.

“This is the entertainment room.”

Then, the two went to the 28th floor.

“There’s an indoor swimming pool here. They will change the water according to the schedule every morning. Plus, the water they replace it with is germ-free water that’s been filtered. You can even directly drink it.”

After Jenny said that, she even scooped out some water to drink. The reason she did that was to make David believe that this water was very clean.

An hour had passed by the time the two of them were done.

After they walked out of the unit, Jenny said to David, “Mr. Lidell, you should go back to the showroom and rest for a while. I’ll be back after I mop the floor.”

Then, Jenny picked up a cloth to mop the floor.

“No need. I’m taking the unit.”

When Jenny heard what David said, her hand shook.

“M-Mr. Lidell, what did you say?”

“I said there’s no need, I’m taking the unit.”

“Really?”

“Of course!” David answered affirmatively.

“Thank you! Mr. Lidell, shall we get on with the procedures?” Jenny asked excitedly.

“Alright.”

The two of them went back to the showroom again.

Jenny felt as if she was in a dream as they were walking.

David wanted to buy this unit.

Just now, she did a little calculation. This unit’s total price was 398 million dollars and she could get a commission of 3.98 million. She had never seen so much money in her whole life. This amount was enough for her to buy ten houses in her county.

In truth, only a person who came from a rural place who had just joined the sales team like Jenny would believe David. If it were someone else, they would never believe that David could afford this unit. He looked like a beggar, yet he claimed to have 400 million for a house? They would never believe it, so of course, they would not take David to view the unit.

When they were back in the showroom, Jenny was busy preparing the contract. Then, she called the manager and the manager brought the person in charge of finance over.

By the time everything was done, it was already evening. However, none of the staff in the showroom left. They could not believe that Jenny had sold the best unit in Block 1.

They had to accept the truth after David paid. At the same time, their hearts were bleeding. It was 4 million. 4 million! David had been standing in the lobby for a few minutes and no one went to serve him. If any of them had approached him at that moment, the money would belong to one of them.

The woman named Ms. James wanted to slap herself right now. 4 million. Last year, she sold a unit worth 800 thousand, and to do that, she had to spend a whole month with a nouveau riche with a beer belly before he agreed to sign.

She had to suffer for a whole month only to make 800 thousand. Just now, Jenny only used half a day to make 4 million. She wanted to vomit blood right now.

After David walked out of South River International Residence, she called Pearl. Then, he spent more than ten thousand to buy a new phone after he ate dinner at the hotel. At the same time, he threw his second-hand phone into the trash.

After that, he went back to the top floor of Block 1 in South River International Residence. This place was already David’s house, and figured that he would stay here for a very long time.

He called his tutor at the university to ask for a few days of sick leave. The news about David vomiting blood and going into shock had spread throughout the campus, so his tutor would naturally know about it. Hence, his tutor did not cause any trouble for him.

David did not want to go to class these two days anyway. There would surely be a lot of people making fun of him if he did.

‘I’ll buy a luxury car tomorrow and drive it back to campus. I want to see who dares to laugh at me then.

‘Sarah, you gave up our three-year relationship for a bag that cost ten thousand dollars. I want to see if you regret it when I drive a car worth tens of millions back to campus. F*ck you.’

As he lay down on the imported leather sofa, he felt that the life of a rich person was so comfortable.

David looked at the interface in front of him.

[Host: David Lidell

[Balance: 9999999501986412 dollars

[Body: 15 (Weak) +

[Mind: 28 (Normal) +

[Skills: Can be added freely, needs to use up lavish points +

[Lavish points: 4]

There were plus signs behind his body, mind, and skills. Plus, he already had 4 lavish points.

David did not hesitate to add all 4 lavish points to his body.

Then, the 15 on his body immediately turned into 19.

At that moment, David felt his body warming up. His body was weak and had a lack of energy because he was malnourished for the past years, but now, he could feel that he was changing for the better.

He felt he was more energetic now. When he looked at his body, he looked stronger as well.

“So this is what happens?

“If I add a dozen lavish points on my body, won’t I become more powerful than Olympic champions?”

In that second, David felt that his life was so brilliant.

He took out his phone and looked at Instagram. There were two follow requests.

One was from Pearl and the other one was from Jenny.

David accepted both of them.

Soon after, Pearl sent him a message.

Pearl: [David, darling, are you asleep?]

David: [Not yet. Is there anything I can help you with?]

Pearl: [Can’t I send you a message if I don’t need anything?]

David: [Of course, you can! I’m more than happy to receive a message from you, Miss Pearl!]

Pearl: [You’re so sweet, honey. I have a day off on Sunday, are you free then?

I want to ask you out for a swim.]

After David read the message, the image of Pearl wearing a bikini appeared in his head. Then, his body started to heat up.

‘Damn, she’s blatantly seducing me.’

How would he resist such seduction from a beautiful and fair woman with long legs?

In the end, David realized that he could not.

So, he replied.

David: [I am free. How would I not be free for Miss Pearl’s invitation?]

Pearl: [Alright. See you on Sunday!]

David: [Okay, Miss Pearl!]

Pearl: [Goodnight, darling.]

David: [Goodnight, Miss Pearl.]

David was hoping that Sunday would come fast.

After scrolling Instagram for a little longer, David felt bored. His social circle was small, so he only had some friends he was okay with on his Instagram. These were his classmates from junior high, senior high, and university. Their group chat was pretty lively too, but David rarely talked there. In addition to this, there were some of his relatives.

Sometimes, his roommates would message him to check up on him.

David’s parents died in an accident before he was even ten years old. Therefore, he stayed with his second uncle before he started senior high.

Back then, his three uncles fought relentlessly for custody over him. At that moment, his second uncle and aunt were extremely good to him, so David thought he would have a good life with his second uncle even though his parents were not around. Eventually, he chose his second uncle.

In the end, when his second uncle got custody of him, David’s life became a living hell. He was always beaten and scolded, plus, he was forced to also eat other’s leftovers. That was why he was very malnourished.

When he finally understood what was happening, he realized that they were not fighting for custody over him. Instead, they were fighting for the compensation worth about 2 million dollars from his parents.

When David started high school at 16, his second uncle never gave him a penny. If his aunts did not help him out, David would have dropped out of school.

Initially, the 2 million compensation was to be given to David when he turned 18, but, he had not seen a single cent until this day.

Because of this, his aunts and uncles fought a lot with his second uncle and second aunt. However, what could they do? The money was with them, and his second aunt even claimed that she spent the money on David throughout the years.

David did the math in his heart. He figured they did not even spend over 5 thousand dollars on him during all these years he had stayed with them.

Basically, it was spent on some essential tuition fees when he was going to junior high and perhaps one or two clothes from the thrift store every year.

After David closed Instagram, he opened TikTok.

When he was bored, he liked to scroll through TikTok.

When he saw that the streamer he followed, Cheri was streaming, he quickly clicked to join the stream.

Cheri was a streamer that David followed a long time ago on TikTok. He followed her since she first started streaming, which was about a year ago.

David could be regarded as her first batch of fans. She started from having a few fans to having 50 thousand fans now.

Moreover, she went from having a few people, to a few dozen people, and now 2 to 300 people in her streams.

However, David never gifted her anything. He only liked her voice and enjoyed listening to her sing.

In truth, Cheri had the potential to become a star, but she only streamed her voice and not her face. This kind of stream would not attract the attention of the big shots because of the harsh reality, how many of them were here for music? Most of them were here to look at pretty girls.

Thus, even if her voice was sweet and she was good at singing, she was still a small-time streamer. She was not very popular and was not one of the big stars.

Because of what happened with Sarah, David had not watched Cheri’s stream in a month.

The moment he entered the stream, David heard the familiar voice singing

‘Un-break My Heart’.

“Un-break my heart.

“Say you'll love me again,

“Undo this hurt you caused,

“When you walked out the door,

“And out of my life.”

When David heard this song, tears welled up in his eyes.

A petty and low love would not have a good ending.

A simping fool would get nothing in the end.

After Cheri finished singing, she received a lot of gifts in her stream.

However, those were all small gifts that cost a few dollars or just over ten dollars. She did not receive any gifts worth more than a hundred dollars.

However, Cheri still thanked them by name one by one.

She was just a small streamer, so it was already great to have someone sending her gifts.

“Thank you for the gift, Mr. Rain.

“Thank you for the gift, Mr. Tall Mountain.

“Thank you for the first, Miss Love.”

David figured that since he did not lack money, he should buy some gifts for the streamer he liked.

With that, he decided to top up some money in his online wallet and topped up ten million at one go.

Then, he started buying gifts for Cheri.

He immediately bought the most expensive one—the World Star.

Cheri was still thanking the viewers who sent her gifts.

She would receive a few hundred gifts after streaming for a few hours every day. She could often get one to three hundred after that and was already very happy about it.

It was not that she did not want to show her face, but she was in her university’s dormitory, so it was inconvenient for her to do so. She had three roommates staying with her and they were dressed very casually since they were in their dorm. Plus, she was studying music and she did not want others to give her gifts because they liked her face. Instead, she hoped they only bought her gifts because they liked her voice.

Big shots would message her saying that they wanted to meet her. They also said they would push her up the list of popular streamers, but she constantly rejected them. She felt like this was like a transaction. Even though she needed money, she did not want to do this kind of this.

Suddenly, she saw a flash across her stream.

‘Is this the effect of World Star?’

She had been streaming for over a year and she had never received a World Star. However, she had seen it in other people’s streams.

A World Star cost two thousand dollars and she normally needed to stream for a whole week to make two thousand, but now someone was giving her a World Star?

Cheri could not yet see who was the one giving her a World Star when she saw another flash.

A third one…

A fourth one…

The effect of the World Star kept appearing in Cheri’s stream.

[Lil Match gave streamer Cheri World Star x 66]

If someone gifted a streamer over 66 World Stars, not only would it fill the stream, it would also be broadcast all over TikTok.

In an instant, a message saying that there was a nouveau riche in Cheri’s stream appeared in other streams.

“Damn, a nouveau riche appeared in a nameless stream. I need to see this.”

“Wait for me! I’m going too!”

Viewers poured into Cheri’s stream immediately. The number of viewers increased from 200 to a thousand plus, and the number kept increasing.

“Thank you for the World Stars, Mr. Lil Match! I’m so grateful!

“Kisses! Cheri loves you!”

Cheri was so excited she did not know what to say.

However, the effect never seemed to stop.

[Lil Match gave streamer Cheri World Star x666]

…

[Lil Match gave streamer Cheri World Star x999]

…

[Lil Match gave streamer Cheri World Star x1314]

Finally, David stopped at 1314 World Stars, and it was also because he was tired.
