From Wage Slave to Tycoon novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Chapter 5: What I’m Buying Isn’t Clothes, It’s My Former Dream

It was late in the morning!

Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, shining on Su Chen’s face.

Feeling the warmth, Su Chen groggily opened his eyes. He saw the bright sun outside and stretched lazily.

"Mmm... Nothing beats waking up on your own."

After dawdling in bed for a while longer, Su Chen reluctantly climbed out.

He would have liked to stay in bed longer, but he couldn’t ignore the hunger pangs his stomach kept sending him.

After a quick rinse, he prepared to change and go out to eat. After all, the fridge at home was completely empty, and he didn’t know how to cook anyway.

’Looks like... I’ll have to find a professional housekeeper.’

As for cleaning, Su Chen remembered Chen Mengyan telling him that his apartment came with a professional cleaning service that could come over whenever needed.

The thought immediately brought to mind Chen Mengyan’s stunning figure—as bountiful as ripe fruit on slender branches.

To say Su Chen didn’t have any thoughts about Chen Mengyan... would be impossible. He was a normal man, after all!

Who doesn’t like beautiful women!

Especially someone like Chen Mengyan... She had the body, and she had the looks.

And with Chen Mengyan’s blatant hints from before, how could Su Chen not understand?

He might be inexperienced, but he wasn’t clueless.

If he, Su Chen, dared to say the word today, he was sure Chen Mengyan would be climbing into his bed tonight.

But in the end, Su Chen suppressed the stirring within him.

When it came to this... Su Chen was both expectant and afraid. After all, he was already 23... and still a pure-hearted virgin!

Sighing softly, Su Chen stopped overthinking it. ’Just let nature take its course.’

Looking at the few cheap clothes in his walk-in closet, a wry smile crossed Su Chen’s face. The oldest of them had been with him for over four years, bought online right after he first arrived in Shanghai.

Even the newest piece of clothing had been purchased a year ago.

He found a relatively fresh-looking outfit, put it on, and stood in front of the mirror.

’Not bad!’ Su Chen had the kind of looks that grew on you. He wasn’t exceptionally handsome, just a cut above the average person.

"System!"

[Host: Su Chen]

[Junior God of Wealth: 2,020/1,000,000]

[Wealth: 90,086 yuan (Pending withdrawal)]

Su Chen took a look. The system’s experience points had increased by 2,020. Two thousand was from last night’s dinner, and the remaining 20 was from the parking fee.

His wealth had also accumulated to over ninety thousand yuan after one day. Including his own savings, he had just a little over two hundred thousand in total.

With a thought, he immediately withdrew the ninety thousand from the system.

The next second, his phone chimed with a notification for the deposit.

He glanced at it casually, stuffed the phone in his pocket, grabbed his keys, and headed out.

The National Gold Mansion wasn’t far from One Horizon; both were part of the Lujiazui commercial district.

Su Chen didn’t go to luxury stores like Gucci or Hermes. He wasn’t interested in those kinds of luxury brands at all.

A total IQ tax.

After casually strolling around the first floor, he found a men’s clothing store that looked pretty good—Brunello Cucinelli.

Su Chen glanced at the name but didn’t recognize the brand, so he strode right in.

The store looked quite large, with a full six sales associates, but there were very few customers. Including Su Chen, there were only three people in total.

A few sales associates at the front counter glanced at Su Chen. One of the older ones said, "Xiaoli, you’ve only been here for a couple of days. Go help that young man. Get some practice."

Xiaoli was taken aback. She had been working here for almost a week, and there were rarely many customers. Usually, the other associates snapped up any that did come in.

They always used the excuse: ’Xiaoli, you’re new and don’t know much. What if you offend a customer!’

She never expected the sun to rise from the west—the store manager was actually assigning a customer to her.
