The next day, Scum got up early.

He went out for a run and happened to run into Andy and Lucy.

As for last night...

Scum was still kicked out of the house by Ye Zhenzhen.

Scum didn't care; at worst, he'd just put more pressure on Ye Zhenzhen. He didn't believe she wouldn't get anxious.

"Andy, this is my neighbor, Lucy, Fang Zhiheng. She works in HR at an Asset Management Company."

"Lucy, this is Andy, my friend. She lives in Building Six next door. She's the CFO of Shengxuan Group."

Chen Cheng slowed down and introduced them to each other as they were both panting.

The two looked up at each other. Andy nodded slightly first. "Hello!"

"Hello!" Lucy smiled back and extended her hand.

Chen Cheng was quick and grabbed Lucy's hand.

He looked at her with a smile and explained, "Andy doesn't like physical contact with people."

Not to mention, this was the first time Scum had held the great beauty Fang's hand. It was very smooth and supple; it seemed she put a lot of effort into maintenance.

They let go as soon as they touched, just right. One can be lustful, but not indecent.

"Oh~ I see," Lucy smiled awkwardly.

After greeting each other, the two went about their stretching, neither having much intention of chatting further.

Chen Cheng shook his head with a bitter smile. Neither of these two were warm people; their coldness was cut from the same cloth.

"How are you getting along with your neighbors?" Chen Cheng asked Andy as she was stretching.

Andy shrugged. "Things have quieted down since that day."

Chen Cheng thought for a moment; it seemed the ice still hadn't broken.

Because Chen Cheng lived nearby, Andy didn't mention moving elsewhere and just made do with living there.

"That's good," Chen Cheng nodded slightly.

"I heard from Old Tan that you're preparing for a fundraising?" Andy asked, straightening up.

"Yeah, I have to find something to do now that I'm back."

The corners of Chen Cheng's mouth curled up. He had overlooked the fact that Andy was the financial manager of Shengxuan. Whether Shengxuan would invest in him required Andy's approval.

"I think you should be cautious. I'm not very optimistic about the general environment in the next few years," Andy couldn't help but remind him.

Chen Cheng glanced at Andy in surprise. Currently, the mainstream voices were all bullish. If no unexpected events occurred, things were indeed looking good.

Andy had actually sensed the risk in advance.

Was a genius really that extraordinary?

Chen Cheng replied with a smile, "Don't worry. As long as no systemic risks occur, everyone will be fine."

Andy shrugged and gave a bitter laugh.

If a systemic risk like the one in '08 broke out, no one would be able to escape unscathed.

As for performance, Zhencheng's latest first-quarter holdings had already been delivered to Andy. The growth in the fund's net value was staggering.

Andy wasn't surprised.

Words like surprise, eye-opening, and inconceivable—she had seen them all too often on Chen Cheng two years ago.

"Alright, I'll give Old Tan reasonable financial advice based on the group's financial situation."

Chen Cheng chuckled and nodded, not minding.

At his level, he was no longer obsessed with making sure things succeeded.

With his current scale, taking advantage of the upcoming 'East Wind' of new energy, he could still be a pig at the wind outlet.

Not to mention he now had a new cheat, so he was even less in a hurry.

The three stretched for a while and then dispersed.

Lucy went home by herself, while Chen Cheng and Andy went to the community entrance for breakfast.

On the way back, he picked up a portion for Ye Zhenzhen.

If you want to win a woman's heart, you have to feed her mouth first.

Just as Chen Cheng stepped out of the elevator, he saw Yu Chuhui stretching on a yoga mat at the door.

"Wow, Brother Cheng, you bought breakfast again."

Before she could speak, He Minhong ran out from inside the house.

Chen Cheng didn't acknowledge He Minhong first, but instead gave Yu Chuhui a wicked smile.

This girl hadn't come to find him in the last two days, which he found very unreasonable. He even wondered if he hadn't done something well enough.

Yu Chuhui caught Chen Cheng's wicked smile and immediately turned her head away.

That bastard senior... even after two days, she still had lingering fears. Just thinking about it made her afraid.

"Yeah, pick what you want to eat," Chen Cheng then spoke to He Minhong with a smile.

Although the current He Minhong was a Saintess and lacked emotional intelligence, she wasn't that unhinged yet.

Scum didn't mind letting her take a little advantage.

Eating someone's food makes your mouth soft wasn't just a saying.

In the future, when Chen Cheng scolded her, she'd have to hold back a bit; otherwise, she'd be embarrassed herself.

"Brother Cheng, let me pay you. It's embarrassing to always eat the breakfast you buy," He Minhong said to Chen Cheng with clear eyes, holding a sweet potato and a bowl of plain porridge.

"Do I look like a breakfast vendor?" Chen Cheng pretended to be angry and glared.

"Ah? I didn't mean it like that," He Minhong immediately realized she had misspoken and was a bit at a loss.

She was like that—always saying the wrong thing and never changing.

Chen Cheng was just teasing her.

"Xiao Yu, do you want some?" Chen Cheng turned to look at Yu Chuhui, speaking with hidden meaning. He emphasized the words 'want some' very heavily.

A blush immediately flared up on Yu Chuhui's small face; she was no innocent little flower.

She instantly understood Chen Cheng was making a dirty joke and flatly refused, "No! My mom made some for me."

Chen Cheng smiled and stopped teasing her, asking, "Where's Sister Zhu?"

"Oh, Sister Zhu's younger siblings are coming today. Sister Zhu went to get familiar with the environment last night," He Minhong answered first.

Uh... If the Saintess hadn't mentioned it, Scum would have almost forgotten that he had asked Old Tan to help find an old, dilapidated Tube-shaped Building for Zhu Zhe to put on an act.

"Alright then, I'll go wake up Zhen Zhen." Chen Cheng nodded and prepared to knock on Ye Zhenzhen's door.

Ye Zhenzhen hadn't opened her door at this hour, so she wasn't up yet. She probably had insomnia last night.

Just as he was about to knock, He Minhong called out to him, "Hey, Brother Cheng, you don't want money. How about this? You treat me to breakfast, and I'll treat you to a meal another day?"

Chen Cheng turned to look at her. Before the Saintess went crazy, she was quite normal, even knowing how to be grateful.

"Brother Cheng, what do you like to eat?" He Minhong asked again, seeing Chen Cheng dazed.

"Oh, I like seafood, abalone and such," Scum blurted out, accidentally speaking his true thoughts.

"Pfft—" At Chen Cheng's words, Yu Chuhui, who was doing a backbend, almost threw her back out.

Her almond eyes glared at Chen Cheng. That stinky senior really was a stinky rogue!

"Ah?" He Minhong looked troubled. "Isn't abalone very expensive?"

Chen Cheng raised an eyebrow, his mouth twitching.

This Saintess really wasn't a normal person.

A normal person would think it's expensive but wouldn't say it so bluntly.

"Brother Cheng, when I get my bonus, I'll treat you to abalone, okay?" He Minhong thought naively.

Chen Cheng's mouth twitched, and he nodded slightly. "Sure, no rush. But you have to work hard; I'm waiting for your abalone."

After Chen Cheng finished speaking, he turned to walk toward Ye Zhenzhen's place. Having just mentioned 'abalone,' his mind unconsciously drifted in that direction.

Right then, Scum accidentally caught a glimpse of the Saintess's impressive curves.

It had to be said, Saintess He's figure was quite impressive even on the 22nd floor.

After walking two steps, Scum shook his head, discarding the sudden thought.

In his eyes, Saintess He really had no merits other than her figure.

With his net worth, what kind of hot girls hadn't he seen? He'd even played with supermodels.

This Saintess He was someone he shouldn't touch at all.
