Chapter 45 (1/2)

“I’m not wrong, money is just a worldly possession. You should leave the matter of making money to men and just focus on studying,” Chen Mu chased after Chen Yifei and nagged. He was actually worried Chen Yifei would become a gold digger.

In society, men who worshipped money were cold hustlers who were on the grind. On the other hand, women who loved money were unfortunately called gold diggers.

Differences between men and women would always exist. That was because men found it harder to make money from selling their flesh. Hence, there were very few of them who did so. A woman, on the other hand, only had to change her way of thinking and things would become very dangerous. They faced temptation too easily.

It was also an argument for a rich man to take care of a girl. That is to say, women afraid to suffer too much hardship would sell their principles for money.

“What are you thinking of. Don’t think I don’t know. Even if I wanted to make money, I’d do so properly. You had better get your mind out of the gutter.” Chen Yifei hit Chen Mu on the head.

Chen Mu was a lot more relieved when he heard that. He hurriedly retaliated, “What gutter could my mind be in. I just think that money is not all that important. If you don’t believe me, I’ll sing you a song. Play the background music in your head, it’s ‘Happily Poor’.”

“What song have I not heard before?” Chen Yifei asked. She was a music enthusiast. Her mother had developed her artistic talents in the past. It turned out that she was naturally good at music, and she learned musical instruments faster than most people. Ever since elementary school, she would always come in first in singing competitions. In middle school, she became the champion in the district. Chen Mu definitely could not compare to the songs she had listened to.

“I wrote it myself. ‘Happily Poor, Jack Ma’s version’. Just listen.” Chen Mu cleared his throat and began to sway his head.

“Little little Ali, only has two trillion. Eating radishes and porridge each day, he bought a few planes and horrendous results began to haunt him. Hee hee ha ha we’re happily poor.

“I am Jack Ma from Hangzhou, I used to be an English teacher. Every day A B C D E, teaching children how to learn. Why is the answer to this question, B? let’s analyze and see.

“I had nothing to do so I started up Ali. Business on the web, I hoped my life would become a bit more jolly. What I wasn’t expecting was that if I gave it my all, I would become richer each day by one hundred million yuan more.

“I originally wanted to keep teaching, but I never thought I’d be a rich man. Since I am rich now, I guess I just have to look the part. I don’t even love cash, and I’m not obsessed with money.

“When I started off, I had only one small goal. Richard Liu does not look at appearances and does not know how to do sales. However, his posture’s quality is very high, no wonder he is a top grade billionaire.

“Originally November 11th, that was when lovers usually broke up. However when Ali joined the party, it became the season in which gifts were bought.

“You chop your hand because you have no self-control, well that has nothing to do with me. Three meals a day and a bed at night, why do you need so much money to live life. Instead, sing loudly with me.

“Little little Ali, only has two trillion. He has no money to hire a cleaning lady. Horrendous results, he bought a few planes, hee hee ha ha we’re happily poor.”[1]

Chen Yifei was very amused, the way Chen Mu had changed the lyrics was too funny. Her laugh was like high literature that made flowers bloom in March.

“How’s that, are you happy now? The most important thing in life is to be happy, whether you have money or not is not important,” Chen Mu hurriedly added when he saw Chen Yifei laughing.

“If I were as poor as Jack Ma, I’d be happy too.” Chen Yifei rolled her eyes, she still did not agree with Chen Mu’s reasoning.

“Then you have to be as determined as Jack Ma. He had to take the National College Entrance Examination thrice. A man who went through his senior year thrice, what kind of determination did he have. Furthermore, the more challenges he faced, the more do or die he became. A person with such kind of character and determination, as long as they got a chance, they would naturally be able to achieve a lot,” Chen Mu said encouragingly.

“That man isn’t here, why are you kissing his *ss?” Chen Yifei said.

“I always wanted to become a programmer, and Mr Ma pays well. If I learn how to kiss *ss a little now, in the future, I can get promoted and get a raise. I can become the CEO and marry a rich, pretty girl,” Chen Mu said.

“Wanted? How about now?” Chen Yifei asked.

“Now I have defected to Little Brother Ma[2], Penguin[3] has a higher market value,” Chen Mu said.

“Hey, I don’t have an opportunistic brother like you.” Chen Yifei huffed and skipped up the stairs.

Chen Mu was aware that when this little girl skipped up a flight of stairs, it meant that she was very happy. Chen Mu defecting to Brother Little Ma was not wrong.

In any case, League of Legends was owned by the American company Riot Games. However, Riot Games was owned by Penguin. In the future, if he really wanted to make a career, he should go with Brother Little Ma.
