Chapter 51 (2/2)

This was a notification from the bank that an amount of three million yuan had been deposited into his account, and his new balance was 3,054,213.20 yuan.

Three million yuan from Shuanglong Group as remuneration.

Fifty thousand yuan from Wei Xiuhong as remuneration.

The remaining four thousand over yuan were the accumulation of savings from part-time jobs worked during his university time over many years.

Comparing the three sources, he instantly felt the superiority of being a master.

At the rate at which he was earning money, there was simply no comparison between the two. A bright future laid ahead of him.

Ding-Dong!

Just as he was feeling pleased with himself, another message arrived.

Chen Hao tapped it and took a look. It was a WeChat message from Bai Ru, who informed him that the taxes for the three million yuan had been paid for and that he could use it with peace of mind. Also, she expressed her apology for her attitude in the morning. She hoped that Master Chen wouldn’t take offense and continue to cooperate with her in the future.

Ah, this woman refuses to give up.

But Chen Hao wasn’t planning on playing mind games with her and continue to get entangled with her. Since they weren’t suitable for each other, there was no need to drag things out. If he ended up getting into this mess, it would be too late for regrets.

Hence, Chen Hao decided to ignore her and continue eating his medicinal meal.

After lying in bed for five days, he felt weak all over, and his bones also felt looser. This was bad. Chen Hao needed a strong body in order to practice the Dipper Steps well. He couldn’t continue lying in the hospital like a corpse and ruin all his previous efforts.

As he ate, Chen Hao pondered. After Master Long treated him with those amulets, and after five days of deep slumber, Chen Hao was basically fine now. There wasn’t any need to continue staying in the hospital. He could consider getting a discharge tomorrow and continuing with his unfinished training.

However, this time, Chen Hao wasn’t planning on taking advantage of Shuanglong Group again.

Having accomplished his mission and gotten paid his rightful remuneration, the affinity between him and the company had come to an end. If he continued receiving benefits from them, he would be owing them a favor.

Chen Hao understood that taking gifts from someone made him obliged to render the other party services. He wasn’t going to sell himself for a little bit of money.

Now that he had made his plans, Chen Hao laid down and drifted to sleep while planning his future.

When his breathing became even, the black cat stealthily jumped onto the bed. After sizing him up, it squirmed into Chen Hao’s blanket and laid down next to him.

After a while, as if feeling that something was lacking, the black cat placed one of Chen Hao’s arms on its body. Only then did it close its eyes in satisfaction.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Chen Hao got up to settle the paperwork, then ate a sumptuous breakfast with the black cat, before returning to his rented apartment.

Having been away for a few days, his room was still as old, messy, and dirty as ever.

Men became inflated when they became rich. This was true for all men.

Chen Hao was no exception.

Staring at his filthy rented apartment, Chen Hao suddenly wondered if his living conditions were too terrible? This was completely unbefitting of a master.

Now that I don’t lack money, it’s time to move to a better apartment. At least, I promised a life of luxury to the black cat back then. Surely I can’t go back on my word.

After finding himself a good excuse, Chen Hao started packing his luggage, before informing his landlord.

Upon learning that Chen Hao was leaving and was willing to forsake half a month’s rental, the landlord readily returned his deposit and a month’s rental to him.

After things were settled, with one hand holding his luggage and the other carrying the black cat, Chen Hao left the old building he had stayed in for less than two months in high spirits. From now on, it’s a smooth-sailing road to…

Wait a minute. Did I miss something out?

As he stood by the roadside waiting for transport, Chen Hao stared at the black cat with a lost look.

The black cat gazed at Chen Hao with contempt. If it could speak human language, the black cat would be hurling vulgarities right now.

Foolish human. Your stupidity really leaves me speechless.
