Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 1109 Despicable Speculators

That's true. If we only look at his savings now, without considering Liu Ruyan's earning power and family assets, and he marries another woman and stops earning money in the future, it's uncertain how much money he'll have left when he gets old.

Although his current expenses are not high, that's mainly due to Liu Ruyan's schemes, which made him appear to have money but not to have upgraded his consumption.

To put it simply, he has a car, a house, and a girlfriend, yet he still expects you to give him money every day. Besides, he hasn't graduated yet, so he has even less time to go out and have fun.

This has resulted in Lin Mo being in a utopia that Liu Ruyan has carefully prepared for him. Coupled with his somewhat dull mental state, it is difficult for him to have a significant upgrade in his consumption.

Because Liu Ruyan has blocked almost all consumer spending.

In recent years, due to the explosive growth of self-media, many young wealthy people have emerged online, especially in the influencer industry.

When a poor person suddenly becomes rich, they naturally indulge in all sorts of consumption: luxury cars, expensive watches, mansions, beautiful women—none of which require a lot of money.

Many people earn a lot of money, but in reality, they don't have much left. Living a life of extravagance and debauchery is very addictive, but Lin Mo is different; he doesn't have that kind of means.

But just because it's not happening now doesn't mean it won't happen in the future. After he graduates, he'll have more time, and he can move to a different place in the city, travel around, broaden his horizons, and naturally his spending will increase. That's unavoidable.

If it weren't for Liu Ruyan, and if he stopped earning money in the future, his current savings might not be enough for him to live a lavish life.

Fortunately, Liu Ruyan had already developed a comprehensive plan for this matter, which Lin Mo was unaware of, so she wasn't worried at all.

As for Lin Mo himself, let alone the fact that he hasn't graduated yet, even if he had, he wouldn't be thinking about having children for the time being. He hasn't had enough fun yet, and the way young people think is very different from the older generation.

Are you suggesting that he should be thinking about his offspring when he's at the peak of his energy, physical strength, and mental capabilities? That's definitely not possible.

Lin Mo gave the honey to the two of them and then started his class. He was already getting used to this kind of life and was trying to find something to do.

Otherwise, if it's really just one day on and six days off a week, that would be too boring. You know, Chuanmei and the others have their own things to do. We can't just let him sit here and do nothing!

His cousin Su He had only been away from her job for a little over half a month and was already resting for so long. This shows that people need to have their own things to do, otherwise they easily live a muddled and aimless life.

Take Miss Yuan for example. Even she used to just find a job to pass the time. Now she's starting her own business here and having some fun on the side.

Meanwhile, in the studio, Chuanmei and the others were still doing the same thing as yesterday, with the studio filled with the sound of keyboards being typed.

Perhaps the three of them saw that Lin Mo had finished his thesis yesterday, and they started to get anxious, so they got up early this morning and came downstairs.

"Class monitor, can't we just write whatever comes to mind for this paper? It's so annoying!" At noon, He Xiaoyue slumped onto the table in frustration.

Upon hearing this, the class monitor rolled his eyes at him and said, "Sure, you can give it a try, but whether you pass or not is another matter!"

"Don't worry, we still have time. Submissions start on the 28th of this month and the deadline is at the end of the month. We still have time. You can always teach me on the last day!"

"And what about you guys?" He Xiaoyue asked.

Class monitor: "Wang and I should be able to finish writing it by the 28th and hand it in on the 29th. There's no rush! It's your fault for slacking off before. Just hang in there!"

"Xiaoyue, why don't you do what I did and spend some money?" Chuanmei said, leisurely eating snacks with Miss Yuan on the sofa.

He Xiaoyue: "You can pay for it. Doesn't our company offer research grants?"

"Get out of here! What the hell is a thesis allowance? I've heard of meal allowances, fuel allowances, transportation allowances, phone allowances, business trip allowances, and high-temperature allowances, but I've never heard of a thesis allowance. This is a bit much!" the Sichuan girl said speechlessly.

He's just a small workshop, he doesn't even get subsidies from national-level organizations, and they actually want him to pay for it? They really don't treat him like a human being!

Miss Yuan chimed in, "Exactly! If you hadn't written this yet, spending some money would be fine, but you've already written so much. Even if you find someone to take over and continue writing, it won't be easy. You can spend less money, but you'll still have to pay. You decide what to do!"

"Never mind then, I'll just write it myself. After all, no one else knows my thought process. Sigh... I'll just have to endure a few more days and finish the paper. Then I can relax a bit."

"Sister Yuan, do you have any plans lately?" He Xiaoyue asked.

Miss Yuan: "Plans? No plans yet. I was thinking of inviting you all to the amusement park, but you're all busy writing papers!"

"No, not like that. I mean, Sister Yuan, you've been under a lot of stress for a long time. Now that you have some free time, what's the first thing you want to do? How do you relax?" He Xiaoyue asked. Hearing this, Miss Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Hmm... well, I definitely want to take a long, lazy nap and then have a good meal!"

"Don't you have any particularly fantastical wish scenarios, the kind that seem absurd but actually have a tiny bit of possibility?" He Xiaoyue asked, unwilling to give up.

The question was tricky and frustrating, but Miss Yuan actually gave a one-sided answer.

"Yes, of course I do. I imagine myself lying on an endless grassland, with QQ-shaped roasted sausages stuck on the tips of the grass on my left, preferably cumin and chili flavored, and chicken wings stuck on the tips of the grass on my right, spicy and fragrant."

The tree was laden with egg tarts, popcorn chicken, meat skewers, and fried stinky tofu. There was also a ditch next to it filled with my favorite sodas, preferably iced, so I could just lie there and eat whatever I wanted.

If all else fails, I can just roll over and turn over so I can reach food from further away—that would be pure bliss!

At this point, Miss Yuan couldn't help but swallow hard.

Everyone:

Is this even something a human could imagine? It's pure fantasy. This isn't a fairy tale world. After all, He Xiaoyue said there has to be at least a sliver of possibility.

"Hey Sister Yuan, you've been watching too much Lazy Sheep. This is practically a candy castle. What we're talking about is a wish that has some possibility in reality, not just something imagined out of thin air," He Xiaoyue said speechlessly.

Upon hearing this, Miss Yuan rolled her eyes at him and said, "What's wrong with that? It's a house made entirely of chocolate and candy. I've been inside. The tables, chairs, sofas, and even the doorknobs are made of candy."

At first, I felt like I was in heaven, but not long after, I felt like I was about to get diabetes. Everything was sweet, and I almost threw up from eating so much!

What I just described as "healthy" may seem a bit far-fetched, but I could do it myself if I spent some money. All I need is a space and a variety of snack chefs, but I just find that too much trouble.

It would be a waste for me to do it by myself, not to mention it's not interesting. I did talk about this topic with some friends before, but they thought I was naive and rejected the idea.

"If you guys think it's a good idea, after you finish your papers, we'll organize one together with Lao Mo. It's just a little money, no problem, Sister Yuan will cover it!"

Although Miss Yuan is possessive of her food, she is also genuinely generous. When you're with her, unless someone is doing her a favor and she's making them treat you, or the other person has to eat with her, she usually pays for the high-end meals.

"How much money would that cost? Besides, how can sausages, chicken wings, and egg tarts taste good if they're hung on trees? Not to mention stinky tofu, it would stink for miles!"

"With that money, we can put out all the food; it would taste so good!" the squad leader refused.

Why would a kind person hang food on a tree to eat it when there's perfectly good food available? That would be pointless.

“Look at you all, you have the same ideas as them. Sigh~ You mortals can’t understand my level of thinking.”

"Wait a minute, after my sister-in-law gives birth, I'll steal the baby out and we'll go out and have fun. You'll all be so envious," Miss Yuan muttered.

Upon hearing this, Chuanmei and Director Wang both rolled their eyes. No wonder, Miss Yuan had a criminal record. She had previously stolen her cousin's child and tricked the three of them by saying there was a sweet girl. And what happened?

That was her cousin. Now that her own brother has a child, it will be even easier for her to steal the baby. Just thinking about it makes them both feel sorry for Miss Yuan's brother for three seconds.

"Hey? What are you doing, Chuanmei?" Miss Yuan suddenly noticed a stock trading group on Chuanmei's phone screen and asked warily.

Upon hearing this, the Sichuan girl couldn't help but say, "Ah, you mean this? I recently thought of a way to make money in the stock market without ever losing money, and I'm currently learning it!"

"What? You're investing in stocks again? You really have no memory! You lost so much money in the stock market a while ago, have you forgotten? And it's supposed to be a guaranteed profit? Did you buy some courses and get ripped off?" Miss Yuan said excitedly.

Even the class monitor, Wang Chu, and He Xiaoyue stood up. Seeing this, Chuanmei waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, I'm sure I'll make a profit!"

He Xiaoyue: "Bullshit! If it were a sure thing, everyone would be investing in stocks, and you wouldn't even get a chance!"

Squad leader: "Yeah, you didn't get scammed, did you?"

The Sichuan girl shook her head: "This is really different. The way I'm talking about to make a sure profit is to join various investment exchange groups, then seriously study stock trading knowledge, get all kinds of insider information and rumors. Whenever a group member's stock soars, I'll be the first to celebrate and then ask him to send a red envelope, which I'll then snatch. When someone else's stock hits the daily limit down, I'll offer all sorts of comfort."

I just focus on grabbing red envelopes (digital cash gifts), but never touch stocks. Isn't that a sure way to make money? I've recently joined over fifty groups and already grabbed more than four thousand red envelopes.

Everyone:

What a despicable opportunist!
