Chapter 99: Chapter 99: If you work hard, my worth will double next year.
Yu Lebang suddenly thought of something, then asked,
The originally lively group became incredibly quiet after that reunion.
Only about ten classmates from Jiangzhou attended, with many being out of town, and not going.
Originally, they were all curious about what happened at the reunion, why no one talked afterward.
Yu Bangle asked,
...

âAt the last reunion, everyone was very enthusiastic, right?â
Hearing this, Chu Chenâs face showed a strange expression.
âUm⌠very enthusiastic.â
Yu Lebang was a bit skeptical but didnât ask further.
âWe ate barbecue.â
Eating and chatting, Yu Lebang spoke to Chu Chen.
âHow much do you earn as a delivery person?â
Yu Lebang asked curiously.
âNot much, just a little bit,â Chu Chen said modestly.
âA little bit?â
Hearing this, even the girl who just exclaimed how handsome Chu Chen was, changed her face slightly and moved a bit away from him.
In todayâs society, having no money is not good at all.
âChu Chen, Iâm not saying itâs bad, but how did a great guy like you end up delivering food?â
As they talked, Yu Lebang was feeling a little high.
âThereâs not much future in it, you should think for yourself.â
âLook at me, after fighting hard for some time, though my salary is not much, thereâs still some future.â
Yu Bangle said with emotion.
âOld Yu, be modest, youâre a deputy team leader now?â
âThe youngest deputy team leader at our Lingyun Capital, probably in a few years, youâll be a supervisor.â
âBy then, donât forget about us.â
Just after Yu Lebang finished speaking, the others in the room chimed in.
âDefinitely, definitely.â
Yu Lebang waved his hand casually.
âYou work at Lingyun Capital?â
Chu Chen asked with some surprise.
âYeah, you know Lingyun Capital too?â
Hearing Chu Chenâs question, Yu Bangle spoke up.
âI know a little.â
Being a shareholder of Lingyun Capital, how could he not understand Lingyun Capital?
âOur Lingyun Capital is a big name in the Southern investment industry. I worked hard to get in.â
Yu Bangle boasted.
âIn the future, when I become a supervisor, if you donât want to deliver anymore, just come find me.â
âIâll definitely look out for you.â
âI remembered, youâll never guess who I met yesterday?â
Yu Bangle looked at Chu Chen, suddenly recalling.
âYour ex-girlfriend Xu Rongrong.â
âShe seems to have returned to Jiangzhou recently too.â
Mentioning Xu Rongrong, Yu Bangle was even more emotional,
âSheâs different now, a top student at Tsinghua, with an unbeatable aura. When she graduates, sheâll definitely be coveted by numerous big companies with high salaries.â
âEven if we work our whole lives, we probably canât compare to one year of hers.â
Xu Rongrong was the top of the grade back then, the only one from their year to get into Tsinghua.
Since then, she soared high, completely different from them.
Seemingly remembering something, Yu Bangle patted his head, quickly apologizing,
âSorry, Chu Chen, Iâm sorry, I shouldnât have mentioned Xu Rongrong.â
âIâll down this glass as punishment.â
Saying so, Yu Lebang picked up his glass and drank it all.
Back then, Xu Rongrong was the absolute goddess in their batch, whether in looks or temperament.
She was the object of many secret admirations, including Yu Lebang.
Yet in the end, Xu Rongrong ended up with Chu Chen, to the despair and envy of countless guys.
Who knew that in a few years, things would reverse so dramatically?
The former goddess became even more unattainable, a Tsinghua top student with limitless prospects.
While the one he envied, Chu Chen, became a delivery person, doing nothing notable, possibly even less accomplished than him.
Yu Bangle found a bit of comfort in this; perhaps this is life.
He intentionally brought up Xu Rongrong in front of Chu Chen to regain some face from the past.
âOh.â
Unexpectedly, all he got from Chu Chen was a simple âoh.â
Back then, Xu Rongrong got into Tsinghua, first in the whole school, while Chu Chen only got into the ordinary Jiangzhou University.
After that, their love wasnât lasting.
Xu Rongrong broke up with Chu Chen that day, saying their aspirations were different and they werenât suitable for each other.
Chu Chenâs mood wasnât soured by Yu Bangleâs words.
He and Xu Rongrong had long become strangers.
As for what Xu Rongrong said, time would tell.
âOld Yu, you should work hard in the future.â
Chu Chen sincerely told Yu Bangle.
âDefinitely, definitely.â
Yu Bangle nodded.
âOnly if you all work hard, will my worth double next year.â
Patting Yu Bangle appreciatively, Chu Chen got up to leave.
Hmm?
Hearing Chu Chenâs words, Yu Bangle was extremely surprised.
What did Chu Chen mean by this?
Not just Yu Bangle; others in the room were also puzzled.
Why would working hard make his worth double?
Until Chu Chen left, none of them understood what it meant.
âNot right?â
A man in the room suddenly thought of something, his face changing drastically.
He had a relative working as a deputy manager at Lingyun Capital and recently heard that some company shares were bought by a mysterious wealthy Mr. Chu from Jiangzhou.
At the time, he didnât pay it much mind.
That was a matter for the companyâs top executives and didnât concern small employees like them.
But hearing Chu Chenâs words now, he realized, Chu Chenâs last name is also Chu.
âHeâs the companyâs third-largest shareholder.â
After a long while, the man confidently stated.
âHuh?â
âWhat did you say?â
The others doubted their ears.
How could a delivery guy possibly be the companyâs shareholder?
Looking at the unbelieving crowd, the man explained what he knew.
After listening, everyone was stunned.
Yu Bangle finally understood Chu Chenâs meaning too.
Working hard, making the company bigger, the ones gaining the most are the top executives.
For a moment, he wanted to cry but had no tears.
Chu Chen was right.
As the companyâs third-largest shareholder, Chu Chenâs worth must be at least billions, right?
Twenty-something, worth billions?
Thatâs terrifying.
Even the person he envied, Xu Rongrong, who seemed unattainable, couldnât have achieved even one percent of Chu Chenâs accomplishments.
This time, Xu Rongrong really misjudged.
Unknowingly, he even started anticipating what would happen if the two met.
Slowly, Yu Bangle also figured out why after that reunion, the class group became quiet.
The most active few all attended the reunion, probably like him, got frightened by Chu Chenâs terrifying worth and got embarrassed.
Of course, they wouldnât want to mention that reunion, so they kept it to themselves.
Thinking of this, Yu Bangle decided that he wouldnât speak about todayâs events no matter whatâit was too embarrassing.
After leaving, Chu Chen checked the system.
[Task progress: Experience delivery work for 5 days (4/5)]
The fourth dayâs task was completed; only one day to go.
