Chapter 1: Online Romance 1
When Ning Yan transmigrated, she was the only one in the dormitory, and she received the Original Host's memories.
Oh, the Original Host was about to graduate, but she had nowhere to go home to, so she had to pack her luggage and go rent a place.
She didn't have much money in her hands.
Ning Yan decided to follow the Original Host's lead and find a boyfriend online to support her.
She took out her phone, opened WeChat, clicked on 'Add Friend,' randomly entered an 11-digit number, and typed the verification message: "I am well-behaved, sensible, and not clingy. I need a rich boyfriend who is willing to support me."
Feeling that what she wrote was quite materialistic, she sent it.
Then she continued packing her things.
...
The Cheng Family in City A.
Cheng Jue was called back today and subjected to a three-way interrogation.
The seventy-something-year-old Old Lady Cheng said, "My dear grandson, your grandmother is old. I just want to see you get married and have children, then your grandmother will have no regrets in this life."
Cheng Mother: "I ran into Director Wang from the First Hospital today, and she said that men shouldn't have children too late, or the children's intelligence will be affected."
Cheng Father: "Your mother and I have both retired, and we have nothing to do all day. You should have a child for us to play with."
Cheng Jue's ears buzzed throughout the meal. He didn't even have a girlfriend yet, and they had already moved on to children!
The company was in a period of rapid development, so how could he have time to find a girlfriend?
Of course, if he dared to say that, these three ancestors would definitely not let it go, so he could only perfunctorily reply, "Grandma, Mom, Dad, I understand what you mean. I will try my best."
"But you also have to give me some time. After all, this isn't like buying cabbage at the supermarket; I have to find someone I find pleasing to the eye."
Grandma Cheng immediately stated, "Good, good, good. My grandson is so handsome, he definitely needs to find a beautiful granddaughter-in-law. You look carefully, look carefully. Grandma can wait for three or five months."
Her tone implied that if it exceeded three or five months, she would die with regrets.
Cheng Jue: "...Grandma, should I remind you that your attending physician just gave you a physical examination last month and said you could easily live another fifteen years?"
Cheng Mother: "I think the girls from the Li Family and the Su Family are both good. You can get in touch with them. That distant cousin from the Liu Family is also fine; she's the prima ballerina of the ballet academy, young, beautiful, and has a good figure, and also, and also..."
"Mom~ Maybe I shouldn't look for one after all."
"Alright, alright, I won't interfere, I won't interfere. You find one yourself. This is just a suggestion for you. If you don't like it, then forget it."
Cheng Mother had an expression that seemed to say, 'As long as I change my words quickly, my son won't change his mind.'
Cheng Jue left after dinner. He usually didn't live at the Old Stone Family Residence but in the large flat he bought.
After returning to his apartment, he checked his phone and received a verification message: "I am well-behaved, sensible, and not clingy. I need a rich boyfriend."
Cheng Jue just thought, isn't this a coincidence?
He happened to be looking for a well-behaved, sensible, and not clingy girlfriend.
So he clicked 'Accept' and sent a "?" back.
Ning Yan saw that this person's nickname was quite telling: 'Bro Has Lots of Money.'
She sent a voice message: "I can't bear the hardship of working; I want to find a boyfriend to support me. I can be available at your beck and call, or I can be invisible for years, entirely depending on what my boyfriend needs."
The other party didn't reply for a long time. Ning Yan thought this deal had failed, so she planned to randomly input another 11-digit number and send a message again.
Bro Has Lots of Money: "Coincidentally, I need a girlfriend who doesn't require companionship."
Well, these two hit it off immediately. They quickly exchanged names, then Cheng Jue transferred one hundred thousand to Ning Yan, and the conversation ended.
Ning Yan sent a cat emoji expressing gratitude to her sugar daddy and then decided to go rent a house.
The Original Host was a beautiful girl, to what extent? From her first year of university, she never lacked suitors, and they were all rich second-generation heirs.
After a while, the Original Host also considered trying a relationship, but those people would try to take her to a hotel after only two days of contact.
The Original Host wasn't a fool; how could she so easily follow others? Therefore, each of her relationships was very short-lived: making friends today, dating and shopping tomorrow, watching movies the day after, and perhaps breaking up the day after that.
The longest relationship, from start to finish, was no more than seven days. Over time, bad rumors spread around the school, saying that the Original Host was a fickle, materialistic, and vain woman.
When the rumors spread, it was already graduation time. The Original Host was hurt, and then she had the idea of finding a boyfriend online. She cast a wide net, catching whoever bit, and it was precisely because of this that her reputation was ruined, ultimately forcing her to leave City A.
As she was leaving, the bus passed through a tunnel, which collapsed, killing everyone on board.
...
Because she couldn't go home, the Original Host discussed renting a place with her dormitory roommate.
Her roommate had a local boyfriend, and for their future, she also didn't plan to return to her hometown after graduation. Renting together could also lighten the burden.
Having lived together for four years, the Original Host felt they could get along.
However, the Original Host had endured a lot of frustration from this person.
Having sex with her boyfriend in the living room in broad daylight, clothes strewn everywhere.
Bringing friends home for dinner, making noise until midnight, and leaving a mess without cleaning up.
When the Original Host finally left City A, her roommate was still sarcastic!
Today was the weekend, and her roommate was out on a date with her boyfriend, leaving the house-hunting to the Original Host alone.
Ning Yan couldn't stand this treatment. She directly sent a message to the other party, saying she wouldn't share an apartment with her, and then blocked her.
Her things were mostly packed. Ning Yan opened her laptop, browsed for a long time, and finally chose an apartment. It was located in Huafu Yuan, with excellent security.
The apartment had two bedrooms and one living room, with a monthly rent of eight thousand yuan. This price wouldn't be enough for such an apartment in the capital, but in City A, it was already a very high price.
After signing the contract, she moved her simple luggage in, hired a cleaning lady to tidy the apartment from top to bottom, and she moved in that night.
The next day, she woke up early, planning to go to the mall after breakfast to purchase all the missing household items.
Wearing a sun hat and a mask, Ning Yan left her apartment and pressed the down button. The elevator was still on the Twelfth floor.
After waiting for a while, the elevator descended to the Eleventh floor, and the elevator doors opened.
Inside the elevator, there was only one handsome and distinguished man. A grey suit might look plain on others, lacking the stability of black or the grandeur of blue, but on him, it exuded a unique, somewhat captivating aura.
After a glance, Ning Yan retracted her gaze, stepped into the elevator, and pressed the 1st-floor button.
Subsequently, people continuously entered the elevator, and conversations gradually began. The elevator finally reached the first floor, and Ning Yan stepped out.
With money in her pocket, Ning Yan bought things without hesitation. Following the list she had prepared, she acquired everything one by one. She even had hotpot outside for lunch, returning home only after she was full and satisfied.
In the following days, she rarely left the house. She usually ordered takeout or bought groceries to cook herself. If there was trash, she would ask the delivery driver to take it, simply by giving a little extra tip.
