"Stealing half a day’s leisure from this fleeting life... A single cup of tea is its own simple joy."
For some reason, Su Chen had picked up the habit of drinking tea these past few days. He even had someone buy a full tea set and table, placing it in the first-floor tea room.
Sitting in a wicker chair, admiring the scenery outside the window and taking a sip of tea from time to time—life couldn’t be better.
It was a rare moment of leisure for Su Chen.
After returning from Disney, Su Chen had arranged for Chen Mengyan to send over two high-spec computers. He had originally planned on buying just one, but then he figured he might occasionally play some games himself, so he asked Chen Mengyan to buy two. They cost him a full 200,000 yuan.
At the time, Su Chen had been a little surprised by the price. After all, in his mind, a computer costing over ten thousand yuan was already high-spec, to say nothing of one that cost 100,000.
Su Qingya had also begun her streaming journey.
When it came to choosing a platform, Su Qingya had even specifically asked for Su Chen’s opinion.
There were countless streaming platforms out there, with popular ones like Douyu, Huya, Zhanqi, Dragon Pearl, and so on, each with its own dedicated fanbase.
After weighing the pros and cons, Su Chen ultimately recommended that Su Qingya test the waters on Douyu.
Of course, Su Chen had his own ulterior motives—albeit a small one.
On a dark and windy night, he had accidentally stumbled into Douyu’s dance section and found himself captivated by the late-night dance streams.
BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ~ Leisurely moments are always bound to have interruptions.
A hint of surprise flashed in Su Chen’s eyes as he looked at the caller ID on his phone.
’Why would Emma be calling me?’
Though his mind was filled with questions, he still answered the call.
"Mr. Su, I’m so sorry to disturb your afternoon break!" Emma sounded a little nervous on the other end of the line; after all, she was calling him on a whim.
"It’s fine, I was just having some afternoon tea. What can I do for you?" Su Chen’s voice was tinged with laziness.
"Mr. Su, it’s like this: the annual Bazaar Charity Fashion Gala is in two days. Our company happens to be a partner, and I just wanted to ask if you would be interested in attending?" After she finished speaking, Emma’s heart began to pound a little faster.
’If I can build a friendly relationship with Mr. Su because of this,’ she thought, ’won’t my position as the head of the Greater China region be even more secure?’
The Greater China region was a crucial part of the entire Louis Vuitton Group portfolio, and plenty of executives from headquarters were eyeing her position. If she made any mistakes, she’d be packing her bags and heading back home the very next day.
"The Bazaar Charity Fashion Gala?" The name wasn’t unfamiliar to Su Chen.
After all, having spent so many years in Shanghai, he’d naturally heard about such things.
The gala was a charity fashion event jointly created by international brands, A-list celebrities, and top fashion magazines.
To put it simply, it involved auctioning off pieces from industry titans, jewelry, and so on, with celebrities bidding on the items. The funds raised would then be used for charitable causes.
Su Chen didn’t know if there was anything shady going on behind the scenes, but the event had indeed made significant contributions to charity.
After a moment of thought, Su Chen agreed.
"Alright. You can come and pick me up when the time comes."
Hearing this, a smile instantly blossomed on Emma’s face, and even her voice became much more cheerful.
"Of course, Mr. Su!"
After hanging up, Su Chen found himself thinking about the Bazaar Charity Fashion Gala. Many celebrities from the entertainment industry would be attending, and he wondered if any of his favorites would be there.
’It wouldn’t be too much to ask for an autograph or a photo, right?’
’Being a fan isn’t something to be laughed at. Who hasn’t been a fan of someone when they were young?’
After all, even the great Marshal Zhang was said to have listened to Jay Chou’s songs.

"Well now, if it isn’t our very own Su the Streamer. Why are you sitting here looking all glum and dazed?"
Su Chen had just come out of the tea room when he saw Su Qingya sitting on the sofa in a daze, hugging a Lina Bell plushie.
"Bro, was I too naive about this whole streaming thing? I’ve been streaming for a few days now, and I only get four or five people watching me every day. I haven’t even received a single gift!"
Su Qingya looked completely dejected. It was clear she was truly discouraged.
"Silly girl, think about it. If streaming were really that easy, wouldn’t everyone be doing it?" Su Chen comforted her gently.
"Look at all the other streamers. Basically, every single one of them has a presentable talent, whether it’s dancing, singing, gaming, or something else. Even the ones who stream outdoors are smooth talkers."
