Chapter 3: The ATM That Drops Gold Coins
Chapter 3: The ATM That Drops Gold Coins
"Hello, beautiful, could I have a few minutes of your time?"
Huang Tian strode forward, flashing what he considered a very friendly smile.
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry."
The girl looked up, revealing a delicate face with pretty light makeup and a touch of youthful innocence. She was startled by Huang Tian's sudden appearance and quickly took a step back in alarm.
A pure and innocent college girl, I'm in love!
"Here's the thing, I do street interviews. Here are 12 playing cards: 1-10 plus the Jokers. If you draw a 5, I'll give you a 500 yuan spending budget. Any expense within that range will be paid for by me. Want to give it a try?"
Huang Tian finished speaking very quickly and took out the prepared playing card props.
"real?"
Upon hearing about this wonderful opportunity, the girl's wariness vanished, and she looked at Huang Tian with some disbelief.
"Haven't you ever watched these kinds of short videos on Douyin?"
Huang Tian chuckled and countered, "I've recently been thinking about trying my hand at being a self-media blogger, so I'm just randomly picking a lucky viewer on the street. If you're not interested..."
"Interested, interested!"
The girl quickly grabbed Huang Tian, who was about to turn and leave. Only a fool would refuse such a good thing.
"Let's get to know each other again. My name is Huang Tian. May I ask how I should address you?"
"My name is Chen Fanzhi, you can just call me Zhizhi."
"OK, let's start drawing now."
Huang Tian could see the urgency in the little girl's eyes, so he smiled and turned the playing cards around to face her.
"May God protect us! May Buddha protect us!"
Chen Fanzhi adorably clasped her hands together in a prayer gesture, then nervously picked a playing card from the middle.
"5?"
Huang Tian smiled and said, "Not bad luck."
"what?"
Chen Fanzhi's delicate face immediately fell, and she pouted, "I thought I would at least draw a 7 or 8."
"Want to try again?"
"Is that okay?"
Chen Fanzhi's eyes lit up immediately, fearing that Huang Tian was teasing her.
"Then say something nice first."
"Brother, you're the best!"
Chen Fanzhi blushed slightly, but in order to do it again, she used the sweetest voice she had ever used to say it in a coquettish tone.
"Okay, I'll give you one more chance."
Huang Tian appeared calm on the surface, but almost couldn't resist turning into a werewolf.
Who could resist a sweet, innocent girl calling you "brother" in such a cute way?
What green tea bitch? She's clearly my good sister!
"Thank you, brother~"
Chen Fanzhi happily clasped her hands together again, this time making a wish with an even longer prelude.
"Wow, I drew Little Wang!!!"
Chen Fanzhi jumped for joy, but then suddenly realized that she didn't know what Xiao Wang's reward was.
"Wow, you're really lucky!"
Huang Tiandu was somewhat surprised and said with a smile, "Xiao Wang's budget is double 10, which is 2000 yuan."
"Wow, thank you, brother!"
Chen Fanzhi was so excited she almost fainted.
Having just graduated, she was full of confidence, believing that she would definitely get a decent, high-paying job.
As a result, despite graduating with a liberal arts degree, she received offers for either a receptionist position or a menial administrative job.
Even so, the interviewer only gave her preferential treatment because she was pretty.
My salary is only four or five thousand yuan. After deducting rent and utilities, it's just enough to support myself.
This two thousand yuan is equivalent to half a month's salary for her.
"Let's go then. From now on, I'll be your ATM, but with a limit of only 2000."
Huang Tian made a joke, then asked, "By the way, do you have time now?"
"Even if I don't have it, I have to have it. If I take leave, the maximum deduction from my salary is 50 yuan."
Chen Fanzhi smiled sweetly and typed rapidly on her phone: "Done."
"OK, let's go then."
Huang Tian smiled and nodded: "So, where do we go now?"
"Um... I'd like to have a Starbucks."
Chen Fanzhi said shyly and a little embarrassed, "I've always been reluctant to drink it before, but I wanted to take this opportunity to try it today."
"no problem."
Huang Tian and Chen Fanzhi walked into the Starbucks on the first floor of Cloud Gate New Park, where there were many empty tables.
It seems the overall economic climate is not good, and fewer people are drinking Starbucks.
"What would you two like to drink? You can scan the QR code here to order."
The clerk gave a greeting and then busied himself with the takeout orders.
Which one would you like to drink?
Huang Tian casually asked, "Give me a Mocha Frappuccino."
"I'd like this oatmeal velvet latte."
Chen Fanzhi glanced at the menu and ordered a coffee priced at 41 yuan.
She definitely wouldn't have ordered it if Huang Tian hadn't been treating.
"Okay, would you like to try their baked bread?"
Huang Tian casually placed an order and noticed that some tables had bread on them.
"Never mind, their bread is just so-so, not good value for money."
Chen Fanzhi shook her head decisively; there were plenty of places to eat bread.
"You decide."
Huang Tian, holding the receipt, led Chen Fanzhi to a table by the window to sit down and chat casually to pass the time.
"Have you graduated from university?"
"Yeah, I graduated a little over a month ago."
"It's a bit of a challenge to adjust from university to the workforce."
"I used to ask my parents for money without any worries, but now that I'm earning my own money, I realize how hard it was for them."
Chen Fanzhi asked with some curiosity, "Have you graduated a long time ago?"
"I?"
Huang Tian smiled and shook his head: "I'm 30 already, and it's been almost 10 years since I graduated."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Chen Fanzhi quickly apologized, which was incredibly cute.
"It's okay. Chatting with you Gen Z kids makes me feel young too."
Huang Tian's experience is definitely much richer than that of Chen Fanzhi, a young girl.
With the system at their fingertips, they exude a calm and confident aura from the inside out.
When Huang Tian brought the coffee, Chen Fanzhi took out her phone to take a picture, only to realize that there was someone she had just met sitting across from her, and she blushed with embarrassment.
"You take your pictures, don't worry about me."
Huang Tian smiled and waved his hand, admiring the pretty girl's face on his own.
Who wouldn't like a beautiful woman?
Especially in a first-tier city like Guangzhou, there are hundreds of times more beautiful women than in smaller places.
But no matter how many beautiful women there are, it's not up to a loser like him from the bottom of society to lay a finger on them.
Even a naive young girl like Chen Fanzhi would only spend a short time with him because of those two thousand yuan.
But people's ambitions will always grow, especially with the advent of systems.
The terrifying nature of double rebates is something any person of sound mind can understand.
As long as Earth has a price, Huang Tian will be able to buy it sooner or later.
"Would you like to try my coffee?"
Seeing Chen Fanzhi happily munching on a straw while choosing photos to post on her WeChat Moments, Huang Tian jokingly asked her a question.
"what?"
Chen Fanzhi was taken aback, somewhat unsure of Huang Tian's meaning.
"Just kidding, you don't want to sit in Starbucks all day, do you?"
Huang Tian glanced at his phone. "Although I have a lot of time, there's no need to waste it on something like this."
"Okay, let's go shopping in the mall then."
Chen Fanzhi realized that she had been so focused on taking pictures that she had almost forgotten about the ATM that could dispense coins.
Although it's not a good way to think, who can resist a member of the opposite sex who spends money on you?
It's a bit of a pity; it would have been better if Huang Tian were a little more handsome.
Young girls love handsome older men.
