As an investor, essentially the money behind the operation, there might have been some who were not very welcoming, but the inspection team still held a high-profile welcome dinner for Jiang Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As dusk falls beneath the azure mountains, the mountain moon accompanies the people home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The villagers who went out to chop wood and farm ceased their day’s labor, while the inspection team had set up tables and chairs in the courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the limited environment, they couldn’t prepare lavish dishes, but one thing this place wasn’t short of was wild game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The inspection team purchased some wild fowl and rabbits from the villagers…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were quite a few members in the inspection team, altogether about twenty, and Pei Yunxi naturally sat beside Jiang Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was arranged by Thomas Felton, and she didn’t expressly refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang, although the conditions here are harsh, the wine is really good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These few jars of wine, I traded my watch for them, have a taste.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the unquestioned center of attention, Jiang Chen was constantly offered toasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’d better drink less.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A soft voice came from beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen turned his head, surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi, appearing serene, was chewing her vegetables; wild game didn’t suit her palate, but she didn’t frown due to the lack of other dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At a glance, it seemed as if that remark hadn’t come from her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s okay, this wine is crisp and sweet, unlike the usual baijiu, it’s more like rice wine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi pretended not to hear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she wasn’t worried about this guy, but she was concerned that if he drank too much, he might do something unreasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To liven up the atmosphere, Ning Hui performed a dance, longer and more exquisite than the one at Fenglaifang, earning overwhelming applause, as some men watched with fixed gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ning Hui sat down with a light sweat and a smile, Thomas Felton’s gaze involuntarily fell upon Pei Yunxi’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a director of his stature, indeed, he didn’t place much importance on stars, presumably he subconsciously wanted Pei Yunxi to perform as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, fortunately, the alcohol was not too strong, preventing the words from slipping out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang, your timing is impeccable, in a couple of days, it seems to be the Miao village’s Moon God Festival, let’s all enjoy the festivities together.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Felton’s eyes shifted, the longer he stayed in Shenzhou, the more he loved this land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m going back tomorrow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Leaving tomorrow?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Felton was taken aback, then quickly said, “Why the rush?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Jiang Chen could speak, Pei Yunxi spoke on his behalf, “Director Jiang probably has urgent matters to attend to.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Director Jiang, you’ve come all this way, why leave in such a hurry?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stay and play for a couple more days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Hui said sweetly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Director Jiang, stay a few more days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many echoed her sentiment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen glanced at the stunning beauty beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face was as calm as still water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coughing lightly, as though bowing to overwhelming hospitality, he said with some difficulty, “Well then, I’ll stay until after the Moon God Festival.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, Jiang, that’s more like it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Felton raised his glass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen was about to raise his glass, but suddenly, the corner of his eye twitched; it turned out his foot had been stepped on by someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He continued to drink, without any change in expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang, about the movie, I’ve had some more interesting ideas, let’s have a good talk later tonight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dinner lasted until eight in the evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, Thomas Felton had a house to himself, but with Jiang Chen’s arrival, he was arranged to share with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen agreed to this arrangement with pleasure, without any objections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You all keep eating, I’m going to rest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi put down her chopsticks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you eaten enough?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi stood up, leaving the table first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She’s injured, better to rest early.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Felton nodded in understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to her room alone, Pei Yunxi closed the door, took a quick shower, and then felt a slight hunger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The food here, she really wasn’t quite used to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, her gaze fell on the suitcase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hesitating for a moment, she still went over, opened the suitcase, and took out a bag of cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of cake was actually something Luo Li’er was rather fond of, often buying loads to store at home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes when Yun Xi had no time to eat, she would nibble on some and, over time, came to think they weren’t too bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There she was, a top-tier female star, squatting on the ground, unwrapping the package like a child sneaking a treat, stuffing cake into her red lips, her eyes and brows revealing a trace of satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this scene were seen by outsiders, it would definitely break their perception of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Knock, knock, knock…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knocking sounds came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled, Pei Yunxi hurriedly stuffed the entire cake into her mouth, swallowing it in one gulp, and quickly closed the suitcase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who is it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen’s voice came from outside the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi felt vaguely guilty; once she was sure the suitcase looked normal and nothing was amiss, she got up and opened the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s the matter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood guard at the entrance, wary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen was about to speak but stopped upon seeing her, his eyes turning a bit odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi’s eyebrows knitted lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I came to get the luggage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen regained his composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi seemed a bit uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You wait here; I’ll go get it for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two suitcases were both in the lobby — one packed with food, the other was presumably filled with clothes to change into.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, when Pei Yunxi lifted the suitcase, she found it to be unimaginably heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen took it, quite the gentleman, always standing outside the threshold, not stepping even half a pace inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve brought quite a lot of luggage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi commented as she observed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All those clothes, it didn’t seem like a simple overnight stay or a plan to leave the next day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen didn’t show any embarrassment, merely smiled as if he heard nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By this day, Pei Yunxi had long since learned about the other’s thick skin and couldn’t be bothered to say more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aren’t you leaving?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen, still holding the suitcase, suddenly raised his left hand and reached towards Pei Yunxi’s face, resembling a drunken man about to act inappropriately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled like a frightened deer, Pei Yunxi hastily stepped back, exclaiming, “What are you doing?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen’s hand froze in mid-air, “You have something on your mouth, I just wanted to help you wipe it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi paused, then instinctively raised her hand and tentatively touched her mouth, only to discover some breadcrumbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression instantly stiffened, and her face flushed red all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This should be enough for just you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t let others find out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, Jiang Chen turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi stood inside, her face changing colors, as flushed as if blood had been pumped into it, vivid and lustrous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, she stomped her feet like a little girl, inadvertently aggravating her injury, a flicker of pain crossing her eyes and brows, but ultimately unable to hide the radiance of the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang Chen, you jerk!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The exquisite female star, overwhelmed with embarrassment, cursed loudly at the empty room, but no reply came, only the beautiful moonlight, the clear night, and the gentle chirping of crickets.\u003C\u002Fp>",1298,"2026-05-30T15:07:10.633Z","2026-06-01T04:31:31.827Z",1,"novelbin.me","8ff30f2957f606a0dd2b45eeade2a90f67099be96d5539e1022940f3a7881609","i-have-10-trillion-dollars-only-usable-for-simpi-chapter-426","i-have-10-trillion-dollars-only-usable-for-simpi-chapter-424",2400,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-have-10-trillion-dollars-only-usable-for-simpi-cover.jpg"]
