Super Rich from Monthly Income of 3,000

Chapter 206: Chapter 149: Depressed Young Matron (2)

If she never figured it out, it would just mean he had one more inactive follower.

After finishing their workout, the three of them returned home and had breakfast together. After cleaning up, Gao Yuan was still in the living room drinking tea, but Lin Wanyu and Li Mengqing had already changed and were ready to head out. ree

This made Gao Yuan a little curious.

’What have these two been up to lately? They’re heading out so early.’

"Where are you two off to?"

"We’re going to Wanyu’s family home!"

Li Mengqing said, turning to Gao Yuan as she put on her shoes.

Gao Yuan turned a questioning gaze toward Lin Wanyu.

"My mom called and asked me to stay with her for a few days. She said she misses me."

Gao Yuan relaxed. "Drive safe, you two."

"Got it!"

With the closing of the door, Gao Yuan was left all alone in the house.

He had nothing to do, so he decided to just lie on the couch and play some games.

He hadn’t played Honor of Kings in a long time. In fact, he hadn’t played a single match this season.

’The season ends in a few days, I might as well hop on and get the King rank emblem!’

Gao Yuan had a very zen approach to gaming. He didn’t care about winning or losing, only played the Heroes he liked, and muted both voice and text chat. As long as he was having fun, he didn’t care what his teammates said.

He updated the game and logged in.

He suddenly remembered how he used to envy the VIP 10 players. Reaching VIP 10 in Honor of Kings cost almost twenty thousand yuan. He hadn’t been willing to spend that kind of money on it before, but now, he couldn’t care less.

He immediately topped up his account with twenty thousand and went on a shopping spree in the game’s store, buying every available skin.

He also bought some other customizations, like new button skins.

After his shopping spree, he noticed he still had a lot of currency left over, so he spent it all on the prize draw. By the time he’d nearly used it all up, he had acquired several more skins.

He happily queued up for a match, only to get trolled in the very first game. The marksman was a complete idiot who never joined team fights and just focused on clearing minion waves from start to finish.

They had a clear advantage at the start of the game, but the enemy team managed to wipe them out in a single team fight and pushed straight to their base for the win.

"Fuck!"

Just like that, the good mood Gao Yuan had from reaching VIP 10 was completely ruined.

[Ding! Charming Uncle - Villain Mission 21.0 has begun.]

[Mission: Reach the King rank in the game within one day.]

[Mission Reward 1: Tycoon’s Leisure Skill Set.]

[Mission Reward 2: 2 Experience Points.]

[Note: The Tycoon’s Leisure Skill Set includes proficiency in golf, horsemanship, cigars, banquet etiquette, and more.]

Gao Yuan had been sulking, but then the system issued a mission.

’After checking the mission details, it seemed the system couldn’t bear to watch any longer and was going to help him get his revenge!’

The system’s rewards were actually quite practical; he didn’t know how to play golf or ride a horse.

He’d never smoked cigars before, either. Lin Wanyu had brought a few boxes back from her family’s home, but they were just sitting in the cabinet.

Seeing the system’s reward, Gao Yuan realized there was still a significant gap between him and a true tycoon. He was leagues behind when it came to enjoying the finer things in life.

But now, Gao Yuan was filled with renewed motivation.

’Just getting to King rank in one day? Piece of cake!’

Solo-queuing would be pretty difficult, but with a five-stack, it should be easy. A quick game can be over in just six or seven minutes.

Since he was going to run a five-stack, he needed to find the right teammates.

Jungler, top-laner, support, marksman—they all had to be top-tier players.

Gao Yuan opened WeChat and immediately found a booster he knew. "Put together a top-server team for me!"

"Thirty stars, one thousand yuan per person."

Gao Yuan was unleashing his financial superpower!

However, he seemed to recall hearing that many top-server players had run into some trouble recently, so he wondered if it would be difficult to assemble a team.

After a short wait, the person Gao Yuan had contacted replied. The team was assembled and ready to go online anytime.

And so, Gao Yuan spent the entire morning holed up at home, grinding games. He didn’t stop until one in the afternoon, by which time he had finally reached King rank.

"I’m exhausted!"

He tossed his phone aside. Gao Yuan didn’t want to even think about gaming for a good while.

Playing with a top-server team like this wasn’t much of a gaming experience, really. He just played Milady and Jiang Ziya the whole time, and he could never even manage to steal a kill.

But at least he had completed the system’s mission.

This time, he immediately collected the mission reward from the system. Ever since he’d forgotten to collect a reward once before, he’d made it a habit to claim them right away to avoid forgetting when he got busy.

As he stood up and stretched, Gao Yuan’s stomach started to RUMBLE.

It had been a long time since he’d been like this, so absorbed in something that he forgot to eat or sleep. It was an easy way to find happiness, but it was a little rough on the stomach.

Instead of cooking for himself, Gao Yuan tidied himself up a bit and headed downstairs.

He planned to eat out today. Just grabbing a bite at a restaurant near the complex to fill his stomach would do. Xiao Xiao had already made arrangements for dinner tonight.

He wasn’t planning on driving to Shanghai this time; it was just too tiring.

Taking the high-speed train would be much more comfortable.

After heading downstairs, Gao Yuan scanned the nearby restaurants. His eyes landed on a Lanzhou Lamian noodle shop. He hadn’t had lamian in a long time, so he went straight in.

Lanzhou Lamian shops were a pretty impressive phenomenon. The restaurants themselves weren’t large, but they were all over the country. You could find one in almost any city you went to.

And the taste was always pretty consistent.

However, this particular Lanzhou Lamian shop, located just outside No.1 Courtyard, was a bit pricey.

A small bowl of noodle soup was 35 yuan.

When the noodles were served, Gao Yuan felt it was acceptable. There was a decent amount of beef in it.
