Chapter 2

Buzz!

"Host identity confirmed, officially entering operational status, awaiting the start of the first mission!"

A strange metallic voice drilled into Yang Mo's head, making him shudder instantly, and he woke up immediately.

Yang Mo opened his eyes and saw a group of people surrounding him, with someone pinching his philtrum forcefully. The fat guy was on the phone: "Hurry over! Mo is not doing well, he fainted! I think it's because of that bitch Yan Li..."

Hearing this, Yang Mo quickly got up and rushed over to grab the fat guy's phone: "Who are you calling? You're not calling Zhou Yiyi, are you?"

The onlookers were startled by this scene: This kid was just lying unconscious on the ground? How did he get up so quickly? And he's jumping around?

The onlookers were shocked, and the fat guy was also stunned. Taking advantage of his daze, Yang Mo snatched his phone and said into it: "I'm fine, you go ahead with your business. Haozi was just messing around."

Then he hung up the phone.

After hanging up, he quickly thanked the onlookers, and they dispersed.

"Are you really okay?" Haozi patted Yang Mo, still a bit worried: "You really scared me. You fell to the ground with a thud, and I could feel the pain just from the sound."

"Just lost my balance and fell, nothing serious," Yang Mo chuckled, saying, "Let's go get some skewers, I'll treat you."

With this explanation, Haozi didn't feel like asking any more questions. He knew roughly what had happened. They sat down at a street stall, ordered some skewers, and got some drinks. Taking advantage of the alcohol, Haozi started to console him: "Mo, to be honest, I really can't stand Yan Li. What a bitch. She's just a model, right? When you two were dating, I always thought she wasn't reliable... but I never said it..."

"It's all in the past, don't mention it," Yang Mo raised his glass to clink with Haozi, signaling him to stop.

Before fainting, Yang Mo had already figured it out. Fate is something you can't force. Since she proposed the breakup, so be it. Although he felt a bit sad, sadness can't be eaten, and life must go on.

Moreover, through this incident, he finally saw Yan Li for who she really was. Although he thought she was a bit materialistic before, he didn't expect it to be to this extent. A gold-digger, only money can keep her, and even if she stays with you today, she'll leave for money at any time.

Realizing this, Yang Mo felt a sense of relief.

"Mo, in my opinion, you should be with Yi. She loves you so much, and she's not any less attractive than Yan Li..."

"Let's drink, don't mention her," Yang Mo couldn't bear to hear more when the fat guy mentioned Zhou Yiyi.

The fat guy, hearing this, wisely kept quiet.

Just then, another roar of an engine came from a distance, and soon a white blur screeched to a stop in front of them.

The commotion drew the attention of everyone around. Then came a series of exclamations: "Holy shit! A Trident!" "A Maserati!" "This car must cost at least a couple of million..." "..."

Amid the exclamations, Yang Mo smiled bitterly and lowered his head, while the fat guy excitedly stood up, waving his hand: "Here, here, Yi!"

In the fat guy's excitement, a long-haired girl in tight jeans and a short T-shirt got out of the car. Her simple outfit revealed her figure, looking much fresher and more naturally beautiful than the heavily made-up girl before.

The long-haired girl walked over and sat down on the plastic chair with a casual air, making it hard to associate her with the Maserati.

"So, Mo, did you break up?" Zhou Yiyi said with a smug look.

Yang Mo was already prepared for her taunts, so he calmly replied: "Yeah."

"You don't seem too upset," Zhou Yiyi pouted and shrugged, saying, "Why don't you just be with me?"

"Can you not be so aggressive..."

Yang Mo was speechless, and he had to take another drink. Zhou Yiyi, despite her beautiful and elegant appearance, talked about love like a tough girl. Ever since junior high, she had been confessing to Yang Mo and even forcibly took his first kiss. She didn't care what others thought and always acted this way.

"Actually... with your conditions, you could find someone much better," Yang Mo said earnestly, a line he had repeated countless times.

"I just like you, what can I do?" Zhou Yiyi said with a defiant look, turning to the fat guy: "Haozi, do you think I match Mo?"

"Match! Perfect match! Absolutely match!" The fat guy, of course, agreed. They had grown up together, and he definitely wanted Zhou Yiyi and Yang Mo to be together the most.

"Let me put it this way, we're too familiar. I know everything about you, it feels like dating a sister. Don't you think that's weird?"

"Isn't that perfect? It saves the process of getting to know each other. We can start with the most genuine attitude and directly enter the marriage state. How great is that?" Zhou Yiyi had a ready answer.

Yang Mo couldn't argue with her, so he shook his head and said, "Alright, I'm still heartbroken, let's not talk about this, let's drink."

Since Yang Mo said not to talk about it, the other two didn't bring it up again. After all, he was heartbroken, and heartbreak comes first. They just kept drinking. After a while, Haozi's phone rang; his mom called him to come home for dinner, so he left quickly.

After Haozi left, Zhou Yiyi leaned in mysteriously and said, "Mo, want to go vent some anger?"

"What do you mean?"

Before Yang Mo could figure it out, Zhou Yiyi had already paid the bill, grabbed his hand, and got into the car, speeding away. Sitting in the speeding car, Yang Mo's heart gradually calmed down. He suddenly remembered the orange basketball and quickly pulled open his shirt to look. He was stunned to find a six-pointed star tattoo on his chest, exactly the same as what he saw when he fainted.

When did I get a tattoo?

Yang Mo was shocked.

By then, the sports car had already stopped in front of a nightclub. While Yang Mo was still in shock, Zhou Yiyi forcibly pulled him inside. As soon as they entered, Yang Mo's emotions started to fluctuate. He saw Yan Li dancing with a playboy in the center of the dance floor.

"Mo, what do you think of this scene?" Zhou Yiyi turned to ask with a curious look.

"What's it to me," Yang Mo shrugged, trying to act indifferent. Although he had let go of the relationship, she was once the woman he shared a bed with, and seeing her with another man definitely made him feel uncomfortable.

After finding a booth, Zhou Yiyi ordered drinks and started drinking with Yang Mo. After a few rounds, she said, "Mo, want to vent some anger today?"

"It's all in the past!" Yang Mo waved his hand, knowing Zhou Yiyi's impulsive nature. If something happened, it would be bad.

"Do you still care?" Zhou Yiyi raised an eyebrow, deliberately provoking him.

"Not really," Yang Mo explained instinctively, "It's not related. We've already broken up, so what's there to care about?"

The more Yang Mo explained, the more Zhou Yiyi felt something was up. She took a sip of her drink and said, "That slut must have used Zhang Zixuan's money to humiliate you, right?"

As Zhou Yiyi spoke, her tone suddenly turned cold. From childhood, she had always been like Yang Mo's mother, ready to fight for him if anyone made him uncomfortable. This was also why Yang Mo didn't dare to be with her.

"Not really," Yang Mo shook his head.

With this ambiguous answer, Zhou Yiyi's face fell. She slammed her glass on the glass table and shouted, "Zhang Zixuan, get over here!"

Her roar immediately caught Zhang Zixuan's attention in the center of the dance floor and drew the attention of some women around them. Who is this woman? What is she shouting about? Is she trying to get Zhang Shao's attention?

Many women in the room thought this, as they had similar intentions. Who wouldn't want to climb the high branch of Zhang Shao, whose family has a fortune of hundreds of millions?

Hearing the voice, Zhang Zixuan, who was dancing with Yan Li, immediately turned and ran over, completely ignoring Yan Li's attempts to hold him back.

His mind was set on one goal: to climb the high branch of Jin Ding Group, the only heir. If he could marry her, he would save at least fifty years of struggle. His family's business relied on contracts with Jin Ding Group, and if they were to cancel the orders, his family's factory would be on the brink of bankruptcy.

As Zhang Zixuan approached Zhou Yiyi, all the women in the room envied and hated her... 'Tsk, looks like this girl will be riding in Zhang Shao's Ferrari tonight.' 'She's really lucky, I should have called him just now.' 'Why would Zhang Shao be interested in her? It must be a mistake.'

While everyone envied Zhou Yiyi for Zhang Shao's attention, Zhang Zixuan's actions shocked everyone.

Zhang Zixuan, who was usually arrogant, bowed in front of Zhou Yiyi and said in a humble, almost fawning tone, "Miss, why are you here tonight? Why didn't you let me know in advance?"

Zhou Yiyi, enjoying Zhang Zixuan's fawning, nodded and then pointed to Yang Mo, who was drinking, with a cold expression: "I didn't have time, but I had to come for him!"

Zhang Zixuan followed Zhou Yiyi's gaze to Yang Mo. He thought this guy must be wealthy or influential to make Zhou Yiyi come to such a place at night. So, he was extremely respectful and bowed low. But when he saw Yang Mo's face, he was stunned... How could it be him?

He rubbed his eyes, confirming it was Yang Mo, and Zhang Zixuan couldn't hide his disdain as he said to Zhou Yiyi, "Miss, why are you with someone like him?"

"Hmm?" Zhou Yiyi made a tone with her nose, looking at Zhang Zixuan, clearly asking: What do you mean?

"He's a complete good-for-nothing, just knows how to play basketball. Does he think he can make it to the NBA? He's just a muscle-bound idiot, and... very naive and foolish," Zhang Zixuan said in a condescending tone, feeling superior to Yang Mo: You lost the woman you were proud of, and I got her as a plaything. What are you if not a failure?

Zhang Zixuan spoke with great passion, but Yang Mo wasn't angry, his expression remained calm. However, his eyes were fixed on Yan Li, hoping to see some emotional reaction from her, even sympathy, to prove that their relationship wasn't a complete failure.

Unfortunately, he got no reaction. In fact, despite Yang Mo's intense gaze, her eyes never left the Rolex on Zhang Zixuan's left arm.

After listening to Zhang Zixuan, Zhou Yiyi suddenly smiled strangely and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Oh? How do you know so much about my boyfriend?"

With this, both Zhang Zixuan and Yan Li were stunned. They didn't expect Yang Mo to find a new girlfriend so quickly, and this new girlfriend was at least a hundred times better than the previous one.

Shouldn't he be wallowing in self-pity? Shouldn't he be going crazy like a rejected loser in a TV drama? How did he find a girlfriend so quickly, and not just any girlfriend, but the heir of Jin Ding Group? This... was too unbelievable.

The two were still in shock, but Yang Mo got up, picked up two glasses of wine, and handed one to the stunned Yan Li and one to Zhang Zixuan. After handing them out, he bent down, picked up a cocktail, clinked it with Yan Li's glass, and drank it, saying expressionlessly, "Thank you for showing me what 'actors have no feelings, and whores have no loyalty' means. Thank you."

After drinking, he turned around without hesitation. Clearly, Yan Li was completely out of his heart.

Then he walked to Zhang Zixuan, lightly clinked glasses with him, drank the wine in one go, and even bowed slightly, apologizing sincerely, "Sorry, I shouldn't have made her so loose. Don't feel inferior because of it, and don't blame the heavens. It's just your parents' fault."

After saying this, Yang Mo was already a bit unsteady on his feet. He had drunk a lot of beer at the street stall and two vodkas plus a cocktail, making his stomach churn.

Seeing this, Zhou Yiyi quickly helped Yang Mo up and walked out, not forgetting to turn back and tell the dejected Zhang Zixuan, "By the way, Xiao Zhang, when you leave, please pay for our table too."

"Sure!"

Although Zhang Zixuan was inwardly upset, he still answered respectfully, after all, she was the heir of Jin Ding Group.

After Zhou Yiyi and Yang Mo left, Yan Li immediately walked over with a glass of wine and asked softly, "Zixuan, who is that slut?"

Slap!

Before she could finish, Zhang Zixuan's angry slap landed on her left cheek, causing powder to fly and leaving five red finger marks.

After the slap, he roared even louder, "You slut, how dare you talk about her? Get out, get out now, I don't want to see your ugly face for a second, and I don't want to touch your dirty body."

"Sniff, sniff, sniff!"

Yan Li sobbed, covering her face and quickly fled the bar amidst the disdainful gazes of the crowd.

Today, she had lost everything. Not only did she lose her ex-boyfriend who loved her, but she was also kicked out by the wealthy Zhang Zixuan. What made it worse was that her ex-boyfriend was now doing better than her.
