Hollywood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hi.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Jiang Chen leisurely sipped his champagne and took an interest in the gossip a lady suddenly approached him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen looked over subconsciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why are you sitting here alone?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the event was filled with top beauties from around the world, Jiang Chen was still dazzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her dark brown hair, amber eyes, thick eyelashes, and delicate yet profound features stood out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike others who were flamboyantly dressed, she wore a simple black starry mini dress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, simple it was not, with its hem reaching her knees and sequins embedded all over, sparkling in the night, especially the ingeniously cut V-neckline that accentuated her outstanding feminine assets, making them even more dazzling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, she had already sat down, her natural-looking CARSLAN big eyes blinking at Jiang Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she had a good figure, with a bust size definitely exceeding most of the women present, it was still apparent that she wasn’t very old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A star?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or a model?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one thing Jiang Chen was certain of was that he didn’t recognize her, or more precisely, he had never seen her face before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss, do we know each other?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen asked politely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not at all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lady answered naturally, “But now we do, you can call me Vera.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen was momentarily at a loss for words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said Western girls were enthusiastic and generous, and indeed it was no lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since she had introduced herself, he couldn’t be rude, so quickly he also said, “Jiang Chen, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl named Vera smiled with her pair of amber eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Westerners typically have more defined features than East Asians due to genetics, but God is fair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Westerners tend to have rougher skin, like larger pores and are more prone to spots, something even some celebrities can’t avoid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, this young lady named Vera seemed like an exception, with her pristine skin smooth as jade, as if bathed in milk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang, are you from Shenzhou?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was very forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it comes to a beautiful woman, a man’s attitude is almost always different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since she guessed that he was from Shenzhou instead of being from Dongying or Korea, it added a certain fondness for her in Jiang Chen’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, I’m from Shenzhou.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, sitting around was just sitting around, and having a beautiful woman to chat with wasn’t too bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How come I’ve never seen you before?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is my first time in Los Angeles.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera seemed to realize, and propped her chin with her hand, giving Jiang Chen a somewhat unnatural gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he was a foreigner, she didn’t have to look at him as if she was seeing a panda, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I saw earlier that you came in with Felton.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felton?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen looked at her, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thomas Felton, I like to call him Felton.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What on earth was this girl’s story?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, even Oscar-winning actors and actresses like Nicole Kidman and Adrian Brody would politely refer to Director Felton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen pondered more carefully and was certain that he had never seen her on screen or in magazines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right, Director Felton is my friend.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That must be Pei Yunxi, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’s really beautiful, no wonder Felton chose her as the female lead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang, are you close with her too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to this girl casually referring to ‘Felton’, Jiang Chen really felt odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man could probably be old enough to be your grandfather.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Westerners differ from Easterners in this respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Shenzhou, if you referred to your parents by their full names, you’d probably get a slap in the face the next second, yet in the West, it’s not uncommon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen vaguely responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you know the brand of her dress?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Westerners are generous all right, but this girl was way too sociable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And such a leap in topic, seriously?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But women love beauty, so perhaps it wasn’t surprising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“K.E.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen helped with a bit of advertising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large tree grows from a tiny sprout; a nine-story tower rises from a pile of earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he didn’t know the young lady’s background, looking at her grand demeanor, she definitely did not seem like someone short on money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Potential customer, indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“K.E.?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard their owner just committed suicide; I thought they were about to go under.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera mumbled on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen lowered his head to sip champagne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang, what do you do for a living?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you also an actor?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera’s curious gaze shifted back to his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, I’m an investor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Investor?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera wasn’t surprised by his status as an investor, but by his youth, “Impressive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen smiled modestly and nonchalantly, “And you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m a designer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera was frank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen also felt astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Western women generally look more mature than their actual age; he guessed that this girl was at most…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>around twenty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Which field of design?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m a jewelry designer!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera lifted her chin slightly, “My dream is to create my own jewelry brand and sell it all over the world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Impressive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen admired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Typical mutual business flattery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next second Vera became dejected, “However, right now it seems like my dream is still far away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s okay, as long as you persist, there will come a day when it’s realized.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen had said it casually, but who knew the other party seemed to take it seriously, with amber eyes staring unwaveringly at Jiang Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang, you’re the first person to support my pursuit of my dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why don’t you become my investor!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen nearly sprayed out his champagne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was just being polite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And you took it seriously?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen really hadn’t expected to meet such a\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—naive woman in such a materialistic setting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not very familiar with the jewelry industry; I’m afraid it may not be appropriate…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen cautiously said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera, appearing quite mature, seemed to still have the innocence of an inexperienced girl inside, quickly responding, “It’s okay if you’re not familiar, it’s enough that I am.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of disappointment shone in Vera’s amber eyes, “Jiang, don’t you believe in me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t you believe I have the ability to become an outstanding jewelry designer?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Up to now, I only know your name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How can I believe you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering the manners of an Eastern gentleman, Jiang Chen naturally wouldn’t say this aloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He put down his champagne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Vera, of course I believe you can become an excellent jewelry designer, but investing in jewelry requires a significant cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a detailed plan…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>you should understand what I mean.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I do.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera immediately nodded, “Jiang, we can find some time to talk in detail, I can definitely provide a proposal for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen found himself speechless once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They say ‘men dread a persistent maiden’; now he was beginning to grasp that feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jiang, when do you have time?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he didn’t know whether she was a qualified jewelry designer, she would likely be very successful in sales.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She eagerly reached out to grab Jiang Chen’s hand, seemingly intent on getting a definitive answer that evening, but accidentally knocked over Jiang Chen’s champagne glass that had been placed on the table, still holding a little champagne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Plop…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stem glass tipped over, and champagne spilled out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because they were too close, Jiang Chen had no time to react, and a noticeable wine stain appeared on his shirt front in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sorry…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera hurriedly stood up, pulling out tissues to help wipe, but the more she wiped, the more it spread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked up, full of apology, “Jiang, let me take you inside to clean it up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chen was helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stain was in such a conspicuous spot, it couldn’t be left unaddressed without seeming disheveled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s okay, I can go by myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t blame her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it was an accident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How could that be…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vera was someone who took responsibility, insisting on being accountable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Overtaken by her persistence, Jiang Chen could only follow her towards the villa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Yunxi, who was chatting with several main creators, glanced unintentionally and caught sight of Jiang Chen and Vera intimately entering the villa together.\u003C\u002Fp>",1407,"2026-05-30T15:07:21.287Z","2026-06-01T04:31:32.694Z",1,"novelbin.me","b843d40426ffd0fe9b48da72bfd963a33ea3ec8298b79c97a419ebb3c5ae7853","i-have-10-trillion-dollars-only-usable-for-simpi-chapter-549","i-have-10-trillion-dollars-only-usable-for-simpi-chapter-547",2400,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-have-10-trillion-dollars-only-usable-for-simpi-cover.jpg"]
