When Zhou Kexin and her friends tasted the dishes cooked by Chen Haoxuan, they could no longer maintain their ladylike demeanor. They moved with the speed of martial arts masters, grabbing food so quickly that even Chen Haoxuan was astonished. He secretly marveled, "The potential of humans can be truly terrifying at times."
Chen Haoxuan didn't prepare much—just three dishes and a soup. He regretted underestimating the two girls, thinking they wouldn't eat much. In his eyes, girls naturally controlled their portions to maintain perfect figures. However, he was surprised to see how fiercely these two women devoured the food; they finished all three dishes in just a few moments while he had only taken a couple of bites.
Chen Haoxuan stared in disbelief at Zhou Kexin and asked, "How long has it been since you last ate?"
Zhou Kexin and Hua Lingwei looked at the empty plates on the table, feeling a bit embarrassed. Hua Lingwei shyly replied, "It's your cooking that's so delicious."
"I think it's because you haven't eaten anything in years that you find my cooking so good," Chen Haoxuan joked. The dishes were gone, but fortunately, there was still soup left. He poured some into his rice to make do.
"Hmph, is it such a big deal that we ate a little of your food? You're so stingy," Zhou Kexin said angrily.
Chen Haoxuan didn't respond; if he didn't eat quickly, there might not be any soup left either. He could hear Hua Lingwei slurping the soup loudly—so boisterous! Even Chen Haoxuan couldn't make such a sound.
After finishing their meal, Zhou Kexin and her friends finally wanted to leave to prepare for the evening gathering. However, Chen Haoxuan insisted they wash the dishes before they could go. Furious, Zhou Kexin pointed at him and said, "You're not gentlemanly at all."
Unexpectedly, Chen Haoxuan replied, "Tonight, I will show you what a true gentleman is." He smiled mysteriously.
Once they finished washing the dishes, Zhou Kexin and her friends were finally free. Two hours later, Chen Haoxuan left his place; he needed to buy clothes. His bank account had just received an additional fifty thousand Renminbi from Hua Lingwei. Now that he had money, he could finally buy some brand-name items. He wasn't picky; a fitted black designer suit would suffice as long as it was of good quality. Additionally, Chen Haoxuan bought a simple watch.
He also enjoyed smoking cigars, so this time a cigar was essential. When he dressed neatly and stepped onto the street holding a thumb-sized cigar, it caused quite a stir. With his smooth fair skin and sharp features, deep black eyes radiating charm, thick eyebrows, high nose, and perfectly shaped lips—all exuding nobility and elegance—he looked incredibly dapper in his fitted black suit. Holding the cigar elevated Chen Haoxuan's charm to an irresistible level.
"Wow—look at that guy! He's so handsome," two girls passing by exclaimed involuntarily upon seeing Chen Haoxuan.
"Yes! I wonder who that big star is. Should we go ask him for a photo?" another girl said excitedly.
The two girls rushed up to Chen Haoxuan, saying in a sweet voice, "Handsome guy, can we take a picture with you?"
"Of course," Chen Haoxuan replied, taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling a wisp of light blue smoke. The delightful fragrance of the smoke lingered in the air, quite enticing.
After receiving Chen Haoxuan's consent, the two girls took over ten photos with him before letting him go. They should have left happily, but instead, they felt disappointed. This was all because Chen Haoxuan was poor and didn't even own a phone. When the girls asked for his number, he said he didn't have one, leading them to believe that he was rejecting them and unwilling to be friends.
At the entrance of New City University, a graceful figure paced back and forth, muttering to herself, "Where is that idiot? Why isn't he here yet?" This person was Zhou Kexin. She had arrived at six o'clock and had been waiting until almost seven, but Chen Haoxuan still hadn't shown up, which made her want to explode.
At that moment, a shadow appeared in the distance, slowly approaching Zhou Kexin. When she recognized the figure, she immediately shouted angrily, "You deadbeat Chen Haoxuan! Why are you only arriving now? I've been waiting for you for an hour! It's infuriating!"
Chen Haoxuan calmly replied, "Look at the time; it's not even seven yet."
Zhou Kexin actually pulled out her phone to check the time and realized it was still ten minutes until seven. Although Chen Haoxuan hadn't technically been late, she was still upset. She felt that a gentleman should arrive at least half an hour early to show respect. "As a guy, you should have arrived early because that's what gentlemen do. You showing up right on time is just annoying me on purpose!" Zhou Kexin huffed.
Chen Haoxuan stood tall and said, "Do you see any changes in me?"
"Isn't it—wait, did you buy new clothes? And you're wearing a watch and new shoes... Not bad at all! You're really handsome—much more than those big stars," Zhou Kexin said appreciatively after noticing Chen Haoxuan's transformation.
Chen Haoxuan walked over to a Ferrari parked by the roadside, opened the back door with a smile, and said to Zhou Kexin, "My beautiful princess, get in the car." He even made a very gentlemanly gesture that made Zhou Kexin feel like she was dreaming.
Zhou Kexin naturally climbed into the car. After Chen Haoxuan closed the back door, he took his seat in the driver's position and turned to Zhou Kexin, asking, "Where are your car keys?"
"Y-You can drive?" Zhou Kexin asked in surprise. She originally thought Chen Haoxuan was just trying to show off, but she never expected him to ask her for the car keys. She couldn't dare to give them to him because she had heard that Chen Haoxuan couldn't even ride a bicycle, let alone drive a car.
"Bring me the car keys, and I'll show you whether I can drive or not." Chen Haoxuan knew that Zhou Kexin was looking down on him. Although he used to be a Chief Professor, he was also a Billionaire because the things he researched were beyond monetary value. So, like those wealthy individuals, he collected antiques in his spare time, including over a hundred cars from the 21st century. Besides, he was someone who could even pilot a spaceship; how could he not know how to drive a car?
Zhou Kexin took out the keys but did not hand them to Chen Haoxuan. Instead, she held them close to her chest, not knowing if she was hinting for him to touch her. "No," Zhou Kexin said seriously.
"Not giving them, huh?" Chen Haoxuan said as his left hand suddenly reached for Zhou Kexin's chest (actually, he was just trying to grab the keys!).
"Ah—!" Zhou Kexin screamed as she lost control of her hand, causing the keys to fall into her enticing neckline, seemingly caught between her curves.
