Chapter 47: Chapter 47: A Freebie Little Bro

Li Qian’s head was still spinning long after she hung up the phone. According to President Hu’s description, the "Chairman Fang" he was talking about had to be that guy—the one who was first dressed in cheap clothes, then went shopping at Armani.

She had been debating whether to believe him, but she never, ever expected that he would turn out to be her company’s ultimate boss! The absolute top dog!

For a moment, Li Qian didn’t know what to feel.

Based on the subtle implications in President Hu’s words, it seemed he thought she was Chairman Fang’s woman. Or, at the very least, he must have thought Chairman Fang had his eye on her.

But she knew perfectly well that was just their wild guess. ’Chairman Fang is interested in me? What a joke!’

’Sure, I’m not bad-looking,’ she thought, ’but compared to the girl with Chairman Fang, I’m an ugly duckling next to a swan. We’re not even in the same league.’

But no matter how she tried to explain, he simply wouldn’t believe her.

Sitting on her bed, she gently stroked her stuffed rabbit’s ears and sighed. ’It would be so nice if he really did like me... Pfft, Li Qian, Li Qian, what are you even thinking? Get a grip.’

She squeezed the stuffed rabbit’s face, then buried her own head in its fluffy body.

Leaving Li Qian to her complicated feelings, Fang Chenyi drove his supercar all the way back to Century Garden. As he approached his villa, he spotted a massive Raptor truck parked at the main gate.

Huge boxes were stacked high in the truck bed. ’They must be here to deliver the bedding,’ he figured. He was a bit speechless, though. ’Didn’t realize people who sell bedding could afford such nice cars these days...’

Fang Chenyi hit the gas and pulled up next to the Raptor. He got out of his car and looked from the massive, man-sized truck to his own Lamborghini.

’Damn, now *that’s* a man’s car!’ he thought. ’My Lamborghini is nice and all, but it’s just not alpha enough.’

Just as Fang Chenyi closed his door, the driver’s side of the Raptor opened. Wei Yilong, dressed in a tracksuit, hopped out with a huge grin on his face.

But his eyes were glued to the Lamborghini with unconcealed adoration. ’Man, that car is just too cool. If I could own one of these in my lifetime, that’d be the dream! Now *that’s* a fucking man’s car!’

"Heh heh, you’re back!"

Fang Chenyi paused, glancing from the huge Raptor to Wei Yilong. ’Isn’t this the kid I let stay in one of my villas?’

With that thought in mind, he nodded at the young man and pointed to the black Raptor.

"Yeah, I’m back. What are you doing here? Is this your truck?"

Hearing Fang Chenyi’s question, Wei Yilong nodded quickly and answered a little sheepishly.

"It’s my family’s. I wanted to bring some stuff over for you, but my little BMW wasn’t going to cut it, so I borrowed my dad’s truck. Uh, you know... our family’s means are pretty limited. It’s a bit embarrassing, to be honest."

And Wei Yilong wasn’t entirely wrong. From his perspective, compared to a guy who drove a supercar worth tens of millions and owned villas worth hundreds of millions, his family’s small fortune was barely worth mentioning.

To put it bluntly, if they liquidated their entire family business, it might fetch the price of the car Fang Chenyi was sitting in.

Besides, with a net worth like his, he probably had a whole collection of luxury cars. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"Oh? You brought me something? What is it?"

He really liked the big Raptor, but as soon as he heard it was Wei Yilong’s dad’s truck, he dismissed the thought of asking to sit inside for a look.

He was curious, though. What was this kid bringing him? ’Does he feel bad for staying in my villa for free?’

At Fang Chenyi’s words, Wei Yilong jogged to the back of the Raptor and hoisted a large cardboard box out of the truck bed.

"Heh heh, I know you’re not hurting for cash, so I didn’t bring you any of that gaudy stuff. Here! These are the spicy strips my family’s company makes. There are all different kinds, so I brought you a case of each."

’Uh... holy crap!’ he thought. ’Who the hell gives spicy strips as a gift? And a whole damn truckload of them...’

Staring at the spicy strips, Fang Chenyi was at a loss for words.

But seeing the look on his face, Wei Yilong immediately misunderstood and waved his hands, rushing to explain.

"Don’t worry, you can eat them with peace of mind! This batch of spicy strips I brought you is totally clean, I promise. I’m telling you, I even specially arranged for the youngest, prettiest female employees at the factory to be the ones to pack them."

Wei Yilong swallowed nervously and continued, a bit sheepishly.

"Heh heh, to be honest... I was originally planning to keep this batch for myself."

...

Fang Chenyi was still speechless, but the kid had brought them with the best intentions. He couldn’t just refuse. Besides, spicy strips were actually pretty tasty.

He grabbed a bag of the spicy strips, tore it open without hesitation, and started eating. Munching away, he asked a question.

"Holy crap, I had no idea your family made these. Whoa, and they’re the Wei Long brand? Don’t tell me your family actually owns Wei Long?"

He took a couple of bites, glanced at the package, and was stunned. He couldn’t believe the snack he used to eat all the time was actually made by this guy’s family.

Seeing Fang Chenyi grab a bag and start eating without the slightest hesitation, Wei Yilong let out a huge sigh of relief.

Even though he knew the spicy strips were clean, he hadn’t been sure if a super-rich guy like Fang Chenyi would even touch junk food like this. He was thrilled that he didn’t seem to mind at all.

Better yet, judging by his tone, he even recognized the family brand. This got Wei Yilong excited.

"Yeah, that’s right! Heh heh, I haven’t even properly introduced myself. My name is Wei Yilong. The Wei Long brand is actually named after me."

Fang Chenyi gave him a thumbs-up. "Badass."

Just then, Fang Chenyi’s phone rang. It was the delivery truck with the bedding. They had arrived at the gate but were stopped by security, who said the homeowner had to come and escort them in.

Before Fang Chenyi could even say a word, the sharp-eared Wei Yilong had already hopped back into the Raptor. "You wait here, I’ll go get them!"

Watching the Raptor speed off, Fang Chenyi shook his head and smiled. ’Well, would you look at that,’ he thought. ’Looks like I just got myself a new follower.’
