Chapter 36

Update time: March 26, 2013

After taking down the fire extinguisher hanging on the wall, Zhang Yang looked over again. For others, it was impossible to know what was hidden behind the wall, but for Zhang Yang, it was as simple as eating. He had been busy all day and had not used his ability.

The wall disappeared, revealing five or six young men and women hiding behind it, holding sticks and quietly waiting.

Zhang Yang frowned. He saw a familiar face, Yang Yi, the landlord's daughter. It was her. No wonder someone would come to ambush him. Seeing what they held in their hands, Zhang Yang almost burst out laughing.

They were all sticks filled with balloons. It seemed these young people knew their limits, probably just wanting to scare him. One of them even held a water gun. Good grief, were these people bored out of their minds?

Zhang Yang looked at the fire extinguisher in his hand, about to put it down, but suddenly had a good idea.

Although Zhang Yang had changed a lot recently, he was still a young man with a playful heart.

After adjusting the fire extinguisher, Zhang Yang raised it and walked calmly toward the wall.

Hearing the footsteps approaching, Yang Yi raised the balloon in her hand and signaled to her friends behind her. They all nodded and raised their items. Yang Yi shouted, "Attack!"

She was the first to jump out, followed by the other men and women.

With a puff, Yang Yi saw a cloud of white mist fly over, spraying all over her. She quickly closed her eyes and screamed. The others did the same. The spacious underground parking lot echoed with their screams. After a long time, they finally calmed down and huddled together tightly.

Yang Yi tentatively opened her eyes and saw Zhang Yang standing in front of her, holding the fire extinguisher.

"Ah, my new clothes!" a girl screamed.

"Yi Yi, my new hairstyle!" a boy said with a mournful face.

There were five people in total, covered in white foam from head to toe, looking utterly miserable.

Yang Yi glared at Zhang Yang and said, "You did this on purpose, didn't you!"

Zhang Yang sneered and said, "You should be grateful I didn't hit you with the fire extinguisher. I'll let you off this time, but if you do it again, it won't be so easy."

Saying that, Zhang Yang threw the fire extinguisher to the ground.

Clang!

The sound echoed in Yang Yi's heart, and she took a step back in fear.

Seeing their miserable state, Zhang Yang held back his laughter and walked past them. It was just too damn funny.

Yang Yi turned around, gritting her teeth, and shouted, "Mr. Zhang, this isn't over, sisters, let's go."

"How could you just let him go like that?" a boy said,不服气 (unwillingly).

"Shut up, what did you do just now? You screamed like a girl," Yang Yi scolded.

The boy said with a mournful face, "That was an accident. Who knew this guy would have a fire extinguisher?"

"Yi Yi, how did he know we were ambushing him?" a girl asked curiously.

Yang Yi looked at her own clothes, feeling like crying.

"Ting Ting, what are you looking at?" Yang Yi saw her good friend staring intently at Zhang Yang's back.

"Yi Yi, he's so handsome. No wonder you said he's a rich second generation. Look at how calm and composed he was, and the way he walked. Oh my God, I'm in love with him! I declare this man is mine!" the girl named Ting Ting announced loudly.

Yang Yi covered her head, "Oh my God, Ting Ting, you're in love again."

"Come on, what are you standing there for!" Yang Yi shouted.

The group followed Yang Yi out, but the girl named Ting Ting still lingered, blinking her big eyes at Zhang Yang's back. He was so handsome, so cool.

Hearing the playful voices behind him, Zhang Yang smiled. It was just a farce! If he could, he would like to be like them, playing and laughing every day, how youthful and happy that would be. Unfortunately, he had grown up, and that kind of life no longer belonged to him.

Back in the empty house, Zhang Yang turned on his computer and searched for famous jewelry stores in the capital. He needed to sell this gold as soon as possible. After selecting the jewelry stores, Zhang Yang thought about going in disguise. He was no longer the naive young man he used to be. Putting such a large amount of gold on the market would definitely attract attention. If people found out it was all sold by one person, it would eventually draw attention. Better to avoid trouble.

Looking at the clothes in his suitcase, Zhang Yang shook his head. They were all sportswear and casual wear, too simple. This was a big deal, and he needed to dress up properly.

Logging into JD.com, he looked around. King Kong's clothes were decent, not too noticeable, and suitable for going out. T-shirts, jeans, jackets, one of each. He also bought a set from Seven Wolves. As for Armani, Zegna, Prada, and Gucci, Zhang Yang didn't choose them. Those clothes were too eye-catching. The people in the jewelry stores had good eyes, and if someone wearing top-tier men's clothing was seen selling gold, he would probably be investigated.

He also bought several wigs, sunglasses, and different brands of handbags, backpacks, and suitcases.

Shopping wasn't just for women; men enjoyed it too. If you asked a guy to go to a mall and browse store by store, they might not have the patience, but online, they were different. Zhang Yang also enjoyed the joy of shopping.

Just as he was happily shopping, his phone rang.

"Da Yang, when are you coming back?" Wang Shuang asked with concern.

Since learning that their son had broken up, the couple had been worried and wanted Zhang Yang to come home and rest for a while.

"Mom, I'm not coming back for now. I've moved to a new city and plan to start over!" Zhang Yang said.

Wang Shuang exclaimed, "Where did you go? Do you have money? What a waste of such a good job!"

The two elders had always thought Zhang Yang had a good job. Hearing that he had moved to a new city, Wang Shuang felt a bit reluctant.

"Mom, it's not a waste. My son is doing well now, you don't need to worry. I'm in the capital now. The city is big, with many job opportunities. I've already thought it through; I plan to settle here long-term," Zhang Yang said.

"The capital! Lao Zhang, our son is in the capital," Wang Shuang said happily to Zhang Li.

For Wang Shuang, who had never left the province, the capital was a place of high status. Thinking of her son becoming a resident of the capital made her very happy.

Zhang Li took the phone, "Da Yang, the capital is big. Do you have a place to stay?"

Zhang Yang smiled, "Dad, I've already rented a place. I'll start looking for a job tomorrow. Don't worry about me."

Zhang Li nodded, "Going to the capital is good; there are more opportunities. By the way, your aunt heard about your breakup and wants to introduce you to a girl. The girl is also working in the capital. You can take some time to meet her."

Zhang Yang's face turned a bit grim, "Dad, I don't want to date right now."

"Just go and take a look; what's the harm? Your aunt has good taste. The girl is very pretty and has a good job. Here's her number!" Zhang Li couldn't help but give him the number.

After that, Zhang Li said, "Your aunt has always been good to you. This is your business. If it were someone else, she wouldn't even ask. Think about it."

Then he hung up.

Looking at his phone, Zhang Yang shook his head with a bitter smile. His shopping mood suddenly faded. What was this? In this day and age, still arranging blind dates in such an old-fashioned way!

The next morning, Zhang Yang was busy from the moment he got up. JD.com delivered the goods quickly, one after another. By noon, everything had arrived.

Feeling a bit hungry, Zhang Yang patted his stomach. He had been tense all day yesterday and hadn't eaten anything. Looking at the kitchen, he shook his head. Cooking was something a man, especially a single man, was least willing to do. Zhang Yang couldn't be an exception, so he decided to go out to eat.

Zhang Yang hung the delivered clothes in the wardrobe, took off his sportswear, and put on a set of Seven Wolves casual clothes. He wore a wig, a hat, and black sunglasses, and carried a backpack with five gold bars inside.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Zhang Yang smiled. Dressed like this, even his parents wouldn't recognize him.

Thinking about the call from his parents last night, Zhang Yang sighed. How could he think about finding a girlfriend now?
