The man’s face was filled with bitterness as he said humbly, “Lower your voice. I really don’t have any money left. Last month was your birthday on the solar calendar. I bought you a necklace and spent two months of my salary. Now you’re saying that next week is your birthday in the lunar calendar. I really can’t afford it.”

“Lu Wei, do you love me or not?”

“Lower your voice, lower your voice. This isn’t a matter of love. I also have to plan for our future. I think we should save some money and get a down payment on the house or something.”

“What? You still want me to save with you to make the down payment? Lu Wei, let me tell you, my money is mine. It’s impossible for me to spend it on your down payment.” The woman’s voice became sharp.

The man was even more bitter. “But I’m not the only one who owns the house. It belongs to both of us.”

“Let me tell you, Lu Wei. If you continue like this, let’s break up! Don’t mention the down payment or house to me. If you’re going to marry me, you’ll have to have all that. It’s got nothing to do with me. That’s it. Off you go and settle the bill. I don’t want to see you now. I’m going to eat.”

The man sighed deeply and was silent for a moment. His straight back seemed to be bent by a huge weight as he walked towards the restaurant counter.

Chen Chu and Chen Youlu looked at each other speechlessly. Chen Chu subconsciously looked at his phone on the table. Fortunately, his girlfriend (he thought) wouldn’t let him buy a phone. His father-in-law would also pay for his phone, iPad, and notebook.

Chen Chu was pleased with himself.

Oh my god, that woman was too scary. Not to mention that she was ugly. After all, a female boxing warrior had said that men who discussed women’s looks were the lowest. She even said that it was fine to talk about a man’s looks. After all, men did not rely on their looks to make a living. Men relied on their shoulders and spines to make a living.

But you look… ahem, right. It doesn’t matter what you look like, but it’s wrong of you to think of yourself as a princess without looking in the mirror. Why do you have so many requests? It was good enough that someone wanted you.

Sister Youlu was still the best. A gentle and beautiful big sister, and she was a rich woman.

The two of them looked at each other again. Chen Chu secretly glanced at the woman who was pouting and waving her hand to take photos and post them on her Moments. He immediately felt that he was about to go blind.

The two of them continued eating slowly. They only left the restaurant when the lights were lit.

Chen Youlu went to scan the QR code and pay the bill. Chen Chu stood at the side with his hands in his pockets, being handsome.

What? Why didn’t Chen Chu pay the bill? Just say if he was handsome or not. This was the self-awareness of a pretty boy.

The two of them walked out of the restaurant and happened to meet a few people taking photos around Koenigsegg. Someone was even sitting on the hood of the cabin at the front of the car, posing.

Chen Chu glanced at Chen Youlu. Seeing that she didn’t care, he didn’t care. The two of them watched from the side like two curious passersby admiring a supercar. There were also some passers-by who didn’t dare to come over. They were afraid that they wouldn’t be able to afford the compensation if they scratched this sports car.

They thought that the few of them would quickly finish filming and leave.

Unexpectedly, these few people seemed to be addicted to taking photos. There was actually a girl who wanted to climb onto the front cover and stand to take photos.

Chen Youlu and Chen Chu frowned. It was one thing for them to take photos. They could also tolerate sitting on the front cover, but what was the point of climbing up and standing to take photos? If it’s not your car, you can just step on it casually. You won’t feel heartache even if you scratch it, right?

Even the passers-by who were curiously sizing up this cool and dazzling top-notch supercar couldn’t stand it anymore, let alone Chen Chu and Chen Youlu. Even if the car wasn’t theirs, they still felt their hearts skip a beat when they saw this woman’s actions. Their hearts ached.

Chen Chu reached out to stop him. “Wait, you can’t stand on the front cover.”

The few men and women who were taking photos immediately looked over. A boy who was squatting on the ground and taking photos of his girlfriend with his phone said unhappily, “What does it have to do with you? Mind your own business! Little Ru, don’t worry about him. Let’s continue filming.”

Chen Chu was expressionless. He retracted his hand to clear his name. He activated his telekinesis and pulled the woman down. He deliberately threw her onto the boy who was squatting.

Was this considered taking care of her? He even specially found a cushion.

The woman screamed and fell on the boy. The two of them fell into a heap. When the two of them got up from the ground in a sorry state, they had nowhere to vent their anger. This was because everyone could see that no one was pulling her. Even Chen Chu was a distance away from her. She had fallen on her own.

Chen Chu was expressionless as he looked down at these men and women. “Please make way. We’re leaving.”

Chen Youlu, who was beside Chen Chu, pressed the key. The Koenigsegg produced a pleasant sound effect, and the headlights in front and behind lit up. At this moment, Koenigsegg was like a mechanical life that had come to life. It was mysterious, cool, and extremely sci-fi. It was incomparably charming and dangerous.

The door of the Koenigsegg revolved and opened. The cool way the door was opened and the super good looks of the Koenigsegg at this moment made the surrounding passers-by exclaim.

The men and women were stunned. Then, they came back to their senses and their faces were filled with shock. They remembered what they had just said. Their faces felt like it had been slapped for no reason. It hurt. They lowered their heads and ran away dejectedly. They didn’t even dare to say a word.

Chen Chu stared at their backs. Any normal person would know one thing. Regardless of whether someone else’s things were valuable or not, they should not touch them without permission.

Not to mention such an expensive supercar, and they directly stepped on it. It wasn’t a matter of whether he could afford it or not. It was a matter of upbringing. However, it was obvious that their parents had not taught them this.

They got into the car, the door closed, the engine roared, and they roared away.

At 8:30 p.m., Chen Youlu sent Chen Chu home, said goodbye to Chen Guoqiang and his wife, and drove away.

Chen Chu took a quick shower, changed into loose running shorts, and put on running shoes. He began his night run. He didn’t go home until ten o’clock at night. After all, his father had to wake up at four in the morning every day. If he went home too late, he would wake him up.

If he jogged at a constant speed for a minute, he could gain 50 proficiency points. In about an hour and a half, he had gained 4,450 general proficiency points. He took out 4,000 proficiency points and added them to his Chinese and Chemistry skills.

[Language Level 4 (1/3,000)]

[Chemistry Level 4 (1/3,000)]

Currently, he had six subjects and four of them had reached Level 4. Only Biology and Foreign Language were still at Level 3. Chen Chu was about to turn off the lights and sleep when his eyes were suddenly attracted by a skill on the proficiency interface.

[Telekinesis Level 1 (3,021/10,000)]

What was going on? His telekinesis had actually formed a skill? No, telekinesis was a skill to begin with, so it was normal for it to be counted in the skill panel on the proficiency interface. But did this mean that general proficiency could also be used to increase telekinesis?

Chen Chu secretly noted down his current proficiency in telekinesis.

At four o’clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang on time.

Chen Chu reached out from the air conditioner and turned off the alarm on his phone. After lying down for a while more, he yawned and got up from the bed to turn off the air conditioner. He stretched and walked out of the room to wash up and brush his teeth. He wanted to go for a morning run to increase his general proficiency.
