The sudden attentiveness from Aunt Shen startled Su Qing, but it was clear that the big boss simply can't do the job of serving others.

While the hot water foot soak and shoulder massage seemed for his benefit, that wasn't truly the case. The water was scorching, the massage was pointless, and most importantly, the takeout ordered was her own favorite food.

You could say that, aside from his feet getting scalded red, he didn't enjoy a thing. Thankfully, she was kind enough not to use boiling water.

The next day, Su Qing woke naturally, and his long-missed independent living returned.

He got up leisurely around ten in the morning, ordered himself some takeout, unsure if it was breakfast or lunch, and after filling up, he got back to work as usual.

The only downside of his job was that there were no days off. Although he seemed leisurely every day, there was still work to be done daily. After all, updates couldn't stop. No one cared if it was the weekend; no work means no income.

Another issue was the stock market. Today was the first closing of his large-scale short-term stock trading. After noon today, the stock prices would drop, so he naturally had to keep an eye on it.

He quickly sold off all the stocks in hand, and he now had nearly 1.4 million in cash.

Excluding the initial capital of 1.24 million, he made a net profit of close to 160,000.

In just a week, he earned 160,000. Although most of the capital wasn't his own, this time he truly felt how good it is to live off someone else's money.

Not only is it good, but it also aids digestion.

Since his initial capital was only 240,000, he only made 30,000 this time. If you add the 30% profit Shen Yi promised him, he would have an income of nearly 70,000.

Earning 70,000 in a week, you can't help but think, for a moment, he suddenly didn't want to work anymore. Why bother working when I'm doing so well? (hands on hips) Isn't it better to just lie at home and make money?

But after contemplating for a while, he shook his head. He's still so young; he can't just waste his life away like this. Besides, his earning speed was still a bit slow. For instance, this time with Aunt Shen, excluding the 30% profit given to him, she still made a net profit of over 90,000, almost like picking up money off the ground.

That's why wealthy people find it easy to make money. They hire someone to manage their assets, maintaining a decent annual return rate. Even if they do nothing all year, the money they make is far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

Wealthy women are already so rich, and their rate of making money is far scarier than his, but they still work hard. What reason does he have not to work hard?

Of course, this is also largely because he has nothing much to do at work.

At the company, all the work is done by Da Huang. He either eats or sleeps, seemingly just socializing in a different location.

Just then, there was a beep from the password being entered at the living room door. Soon, the door opened, and a head popped in, opening with:

"Hi, hi, hi!"

"Brother~ Your sister is here to see you!"

Su Qing:...

Almost forgot he had a sister. It has to be said he's been a bit too busy lately.

"Come, brother, eat some watermelon. Your sister also bought your favorite, pine~~~apple."

Sitting on the sofa, watching Su He place fruit one by one on the coffee table, Su Qing couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Has the sun risen in the west today? What's up, did your admission notice arrive?"

"Of course not, it's still early, but I have confidence in myself," Su He puffed up her chest and said confidently.

Regarding her inexplicable confidence, as her brother, he couldn't be bothered to respond. After all, narratively speaking, he already knew she would pass the exam smoothly.

Calculating the time, she would be notified of acceptance later this month, then she would go to collect the admission notice from the school, spend another month in August, and start school in September.

"Alright, just say what you came for. Today I'm in a good mood. As long as it's nothing major, I might consider it."

Indeed, having made nearly 70,000 today, what could be more exhilarating than making money?

"Really, then, bro, can you return the 2,000 bucks you owe me?"

"Scram!"

"Didn't you say you would consider it?"

"I considered it and decided no!"

Su He:...

From a certain perspective, the brother and sister are indeed alike: when it comes to money, there's no giving it away, no matter what.

Having finally seen a return, how could he give it back?

"I knew it, but never mind, Mom already gave me the money. This time I came under orders to check how you're doing. By the way, does Mom know about your relationship with sister-in-law? Was she upset?" Su He asked cautiously.

Upon hearing this, Su Qing was taken aback. Thinking of how his relationship with Shen Yi was revealed the previous week with no reaction from his mom, it was indeed unusual. He shook his head: "Not at all. Why, did you hear something?"

"No, what could I know? I just thought you might..."

"You thought Mom would scold me, and you came to see the joke? A bit late, aren't you? It's been a week, and you just thought of coming over to see how I am doing? Do you believe yourself? I've lived independently outside all these years and have been fine, unlike you, playing around recklessly right?" Su Qing said with an expression that seemed to see through everything.

He wasn't worried about Su He not doing well. After all, she wasn't a child anymore. If she couldn't cook, she could just order takeout; she wasn't short of money.

"How is that possible, brother, I passed my driving test theory test, hehe!" Su He exclaimed loudly, her face full of pride, as if saying, hurry and praise me, hurry!

"You passed? Not bad. Let's hope you pass the next one, too. So, tell me, what brings you here!"

He wasn't concerned about Su He getting a driver's license, as he already had one.

"Haha, as expected from you, brother. I'll get to the point then. It's the weekend. Can I borrow Da Huang for a day? Wenwen and the others are fans of it, so I wanted to..."

Hearing this, he wasn't surprised. No way she'd be so attentive without a reason?

"Unfortunately, Da Huang isn't home today. Someone else borrowed it..."

Before he could finish, Su He quickly packed all the fruits off the coffee table into a bag and took them.

"If it's not home, what will you eat? I'm leaving!"

Su Qing:...

Looking at the small piece of watermelon in his hand, he still hadn't processed it. Well, she's truly a Su family girl, not willing to lose out on any deal.

After Su He left, he just wanted to take an afternoon nap, and the true "bootlicker" came knocking at his door.

"Woohoo, Qingzi, I closed a deal!"

As soon as he entered the door, Wang Xing excitedly shouted.

"Are you crazy?" Su Qing sighed helplessly.

He just wanted a peaceful weekend, what did he do to deserve this? It's never peaceful at home.

"Crazy, you say? Do you know the huge deal I just closed? Four hundred thousand, four hundred thousand! I achieved this in just half a month, and now the boss really values me. They've even finalized my permanent position. Just from this deal, I can get this amount in commission!" Wang Xing stretched out four fingers, looking very smug.

"Four thousand?"

"Get lost, get lost, what are you thinking? It's four thousand!"

"One percent?" Su Qing realized. Based on this, Boss Shen is still treating him quite well, considering a thirty percent profit margin.

But thinking it over, it makes sense. He's only taking thirty percent of the net profit, while the fifty thousand Wang Xing brought in is the gross amount. After deducting various company costs, what he's getting is already quite a lot.

"The boss told me to keep up the good work, and said the commission can be increased. If I can land a few more deals this month, maybe I'll get two percent, or even more. Qingzi, I feel like my era has arrived. I'm born to do business, haha!" Wang Xing laughed triumphantly, hands on his hips.

[When God closes a door, He opens a window. Wang the Toad has failed in love but succeeded in business.]

Oh, come on. Su Qing couldn't believe it, never thought the persistent 'nice guy' could catch a break.

"Hello, 911? Yeah, there's someone here showing off, can you take care of it?"

Wang Xing: ...

"You're just jealous!"

"Jealous of you? What do I have to be jealous of? You don't even earn more than my dog!"

"I have a girlfriend."

"My dog Big Yellow earns 18,000 a month!"

"I have a girlfriend!"

"My short video went viral!"

"I have a girlfriend."

"I just made a killing in the stock market!"

"I have..."

"You're full of it!"

"You're mad, you're mad."

Su Qing: ...

He realized he couldn't communicate with this fool anymore, but it made sense. This goof now had success in both career and love. No wonder no one else mattered to him, acting as if having a girlfriend meant he owned the world.

Just then, the doorbell rang again, and the next moment, the door opened. In walked Aunt Shen in a simple long dress. She didn't even look up as she kicked off her shoes to one side.

"Ah, it's so hot, quick, turn on the air conditioning!"

Su Qing: ...

Wang Xing: ...

"Oh, do we have guests?" Shen Yi looked up, surprised to see the two staring at her.

Perhaps realizing there were guests, she quickly put on slippers, mindful of her image.

"Hello, you're Su Qing's friend, right? I remember you, come, have a seat," Shen Yi spoke with the tone of a hostess.

Wang Xing turned to him: "This is your house, right?"

"Seems like it. Let me check, yep, it is my house!" Su Qing confirmed as he looked around.

"So you two... are living together? When did this happen?"

"I..."

Before he could finish, Shen Yi grabbed two bottles of water from the fridge, handing one to Wang Xing with a smile: "Have a seat, have a seat, sorry, I would've bought groceries if I knew we had guests."

Her attitude gave the impression of belonging, making Wang Xing wonder if he had come to the wrong place.

"Ahem, it's okay, I just came to have a look. If you two are busy, I can leave?" Wang Xing replied uncertainly.

"No need, no need, have a seat," said Shen Yi, then turned to him and asked: "By the way, I noticed earlier that your stock has been declining. What are you planning to do?"

"I sold everything before noon, so no worries."

"How much profit?"

"Together we made nearly 160,000," Su Qing replied.

Hearing that, Shen Yi nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad."

Listening to their conversation, Wang Xing was a bit confused and mumbled, "How much did you say you made from stocks?"

"I didn't make much, just over thirty thousand, but my boss said he'd give me thirty percent. So in total, my income should be around seventy thousand, yeah, just for a week!" Su Qing explained deliberately.

Hearing this, Wang Xing's eyes widened like saucers, pointing at him: "You... you mean, you made that much in a week?"

"Yes!"

"And you scored your boss too?"

Su Qing: ???

"No..."

"You're really something!"

The two: ...
