In just a month of not seeing each other, you’re living in a villa, you’ve got a robot for a butler, and even bought a hill.

Look at this, the nannies, the bodyguards, the robots, it’s really impressive!

Please forgive my own good-for-nothing appearance.

“It’s no big deal, just acquired an existing company, then made a bit of money. I thought, why not move my parents into the city, so I just bought a villa. This whole ten-mile radius is mine. In the future, I might build one or two more villas,” Ye Fan said with a smile.

“Bro Fan, do you still stand by what you said back then? You can’t lie to me, or go back on it!” Zhao Xiaotian said nervously.

“What did I say?” Ye Fan was a little bewildered by this sudden question.

He hadn’t caught on.

What promise is he talking about?

“Back in the hospital, you said that when I graduated, I could come work with you at your company. I’ve set my heart on following you, you can’t just ditch me and not want me!” Zhao Xiaotian blurted out, visibly excited.

He had decided now, he would follow Ye Fan through thick and thin.

Ye Fan burst into laughter when he heard this.

So, it was about that.

It seemed that the kid had taken his past words as a joke or merely as words of comfort.

But now, having seen the evidence, he was truly convinced.

Of course, his own words definitely counted.

“Don’t worry, my words definitely count. I’m waiting for you,” Ye Fan reassured.

Of course! His buddy after all. How could he not look after him?

Moreover, he did believe in Zhao Xiaotian’s abilities.

The kid might seem unreliable at times, but when it came to integrity and crucial moments, he was truly remarkable.

One must not underestimate him.

“That’s great, hehe,” Zhao Xiaotian laughed, sipping his tea.

This tea is really fragrant!

Although he didn’t know what kind of tea it was, as long as it smelled good, that was enough.

“Mhm, let’s go in a bit. They’ve set the gathering at Chunlai Hotel,” Ye Fan said.

“No worries, I’ll listen to you,” Zhao Xiaotian replied.

“You know what, let me give you a tour of the place, how about it?” Ye Fan suggested.

After all, it was Zhao Xiaotian’s first visit here, and Ye Fan wanted to show him around the area.

The scenery here was not bad, and strolling while chatting was quite pleasant.

“Sure, I was just thinking of taking a look around,” Zhao Xiaotian said eagerly.

He wanted to see the place.

As soon as he came in, he had been marveling at how nice the area was, how beautiful the scenery, but he hadn’t seen it all yet.

‘Come on, let me show you,’ Ye Fan said with a smile as he pulled Zhao Xiaotian out of the villa and took him outside.

While walking, he introduced the various features of the place to Zhao Xiaotian— the flower beds, the swimming pool, the fishing lake, the golfing area, and so on.

Zhao Xiaotian’s mouth was agape with shock.

Gosh, this place is just so complete and the scenery is unbelievably beautiful.

“Xiaotian, when you’re free we can fish or play golf together. I’m planning on adding a peach orchid and a garden here. When the peach blossoms are in bloom, it will be absolutely gorgeous,” Ye Fan remarked.

‘Ye Fan, I’ve realized that you really know how to enjoy life—your living is like a fairytale,’ Zhao Xiaotian commented.

Indeed.

With peach orchids and gardens to come, the enjoyment is real.

The lives of the wealthy are indeed different.

“It’s nothing special, mainly because my parents also like plants and flowers, they can purify the air and add to the beauty. You can do the same in the future. There’s no need to envy me,” Ye Fan said.

“Psh, you talk as if it’s that simple. If I had a third of what you have, I’d be content,” Zhao Xiaotian said.

He felt that Ye Fan was inherently excellent, while he himself was quite the opposite, clumsy and unable to do much, not to mention his poor academics. If he could achieve one-third of what Ye Fan had achieved in the future, he would be happy, and his parents would be over the moon.

To reach Ye Fan’s level seemed impossible to him.

But one-third seemed somewhat hopeful.

“Don’t be so lacking in confidence. Where there’s a will, there’s a way, man conquers nature,” Ye Fan said.

Yes, one only knows the outcome of anything after putting in the effort.

Although he himself hadn’t made much effort, mainly because he had the System’s help. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have such a life. But Zhao Xiaotian had him, after all.

They were brothers!

If he was doing well, would he let Zhao Xiaotian suffer?

Impossible.

He would naturally help Zhao Xiaotian and give him a hand.

“Okay, with your words, I’ll put in the effort and learn from you,” Zhao Xiaotian said.

“Good brother, you’ll have to help me in the future too. By the way, I wonder if we’ll see Fang Dajian at this gathering,” Ye Fan said.

“What do you need him for? We’ll probably see him. That guy didn’t make it to university because of his family’s situation. He went to work and hasn’t kept in touch with us, sigh,” Zhao Xiaotian said helplessly.

You should know, back in high school, the three of us were the best of friends.

We had planned to attend the same university.

But then, Fang Dajian’s family had some misfortune, his father passed away, and with only his mother left, he stopped his schooling and started working right after high school graduation.

It’s been over a year since we last saw him; I have no idea how he’s doing now.

“He should be back, and he’s probably not busy. My company is short-staffed, and I’d like to give him a chance to try out,” Ye Fan said.

You need to have a few reliable people of your own in your company.

And he thought of having Fang Da Jian join him.

“Alright, no problem, I’ll keep an eye out for you,” Zhao Xiaotian said.

“It’s getting late, we should head out, it’s already five o’clock,” Ye Fan said, glancing at his watch.

It takes forty to fifty minutes to get to the city from here, and by the time he got there it would be nearly six o’clock.

Besides, it gets dark early in the autumn.

“Okay, let’s go then,” Zhao Xiaotian nodded and followed Ye Fan back.

Ye Fan drove his Audi to Chunlai Hotel, with Zhao Xiaotian sitting in the passenger seat, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the luxury car.

This car is really nice!

So cool!

“Ye Fan, you’re not even twenty and you’re already a success. Look at you, a car, cash, a wife, a child, a house, you’ve got it all. You’re really at the peak of life,” Zhao Xiaotian said, counting off on his fingers.

Truly a winner in life.

“Don’t say that, there are plenty of people way more impressive than me, I’m nowhere near their level,” Ye Fan laughed.

Yes, many big shots are quite understated.

He wasn’t really one of the big shots, nor could he consider himself a successful person.

All of this was given to him by the System.

“You’re being too modest. Look at me, I’m still just a freshman in college,” Zhao Xiaotian said somewhat resignedly.

“Enough, stop flattering me.. I’m going to be flattered to death with your ‘poisonous praise’!”
