Chapter 43: His Heart Deserves Death! (Combined Chapter)_2
"You seem quite happy?" the chubby neighbor raised an eyebrow.
"You've become successful, of course I'm happy," Chen Yu said with great satisfaction, patting his neighbor's shoulder, "Keep it up. Don't slack off, okay?"
"If you keep talking to me for a while longer, I might just start slacking off," the chubby neighbor glanced at his watch again, "I have a class starting this afternoon."
"As they say, work and rest are both important. Slacking off a bit is okay too," Chen Yu changed his tone, "I came to you for something even more important."
"More matters?" the chubby neighbor stood up, walked to the dining room, pulled out a few tissues, and wiped the bloodstains off his chest, "Then speak quickly."
"The college entrance exam is coming up, you know."
"I know, what about it?"
"Well, take a look at this." Chen Yu took off his hat, revealing the title "College Entrance Exam Top Scorer" on his head.
"College Entrance Exam... Top Scorer?" the chubby neighbor was stunned for a moment, then excited, "Holy shit! Kid, you're pretty awesome!"
The title "College Entrance Exam Top Scorer" had been with him before the neighbor became a "Transcendent." But because Chen Yu was always wearing a hat, the other party was unaware.
Now that it was revealed, it obviously gave his neighbor a shock.
"When did you start reviewing? How did you become so awesome?" the chubby neighbor crossed ten meters in one step! He instantly appeared in front of Chen Yu, scrutinizing the title on his head, "Awesome, awesome! You've got something there!"
"Jealous?" Chen Yu smiled.
"Ah... It's okay," the chubby neighbor rubbed his chin stubble.
If it had been half a month earlier, he would have definitely been envious of a title at the level of "College Entrance Exam Top Scorer."
Envious enough to drool.
Even losing sleep at night over it.
After all, with such a title, a leap in social class was within reach.
But now...
He was a Transcendent.
He no longer belonged to the normal human social group.
Let alone a top scholar in the educational system.
Even top scholars in the political, financial, or technological spheres would have to bow before him.
Transcendent, transcendent.
As the name suggests, completely detached from the mundane world.
Thus, even the finest achievements in the "mundane world" were not worthy of their status.
"Regardless, that's an incredible level of achievement," the chubby neighbor, with his belly sticking out, full of a superior's demeanor, slapped Chen Yu on the shoulder, "I don't need to worry about your life anymore."
Chen Yu: "..."
"Is there anything else?" the chubby neighbor checked his watch for the third time, "If not, I'll head to class."
"How could there not be?" Chen Yu stood up, "My most important matter, I haven't mentioned yet."
"You sure have a lot of issues..." the chubby neighbor grinned, "Speak quickly. Do you want me to help you get into a good university, a good major?"
"NO." Chen Yu's smile widened, shaking a finger, "I want you, to go to the college entrance exam with me."
Chubby neighbor: "What?"
...
...
"College entrance exam? Stop kidding around."
The chubby neighbor waved dismissively, walked to the hall, picked up a black high-end coat, and "personally" draped it over himself, "I'll go now, we can talk more when I come back."
"Hey!" Chen Yu took several large steps forward to block his neighbor, "What's the matter with you? You don't listen to Chen Yu anymore? The college entrance exam is good for you."
"I am a Transcendent now. Busy," the chubby neighbor frowned, "I don't even have time to complete all my 'evolution' coursework every day, how would the college entrance exam help me?"
"See! I knew it. Your whole mindset is wrong," Chen Yu blocked his neighbor's path, his expression serious, "Doing something, do you always need a reward? You're no different from those brick movers in Fantasy Westward Journey. As a person, whether a Transcendent or a commoner, you should pursue mental elevation. Have you forgotten how you became a Transcendent?"
At these words, the chubby neighbor fell silent for a moment, then sighed, "Chen Yu. I can only say that you are indeed a wise man. But the difference in levels limits your vision. For ordinary people, the college entrance exam might be a rare experience. Maybe it really can bring growth. But...
still, I am a Transcendent. My way of growth, and yours, are not the same."
"You're almost floating up to the sky now. You've just been a Transcendent for a few days, and you're different from us ordinary people? What? You even pee differently now?"
"Chen Yu," the chubby neighbor spoke earnestly, "we are friends, so when it's just the two of us, it's okay to joke around a bit, and I don't mind. But in a public setting, you, a mere commoner, don't rank high enough."
Chen Yu really wanted to slap this poser on the forehead, "Anyway, you don't have a choice. You must take the college entrance exam with me."
"I'm not going, move aside."
"If you don't go, I won't move."
"Don't force me to push you."
"Don't push me, just hit me," Chen Yu leaned his head forward, pointing at his own temple, "Here, hit right here!"
Chubby neighbor: "..."
Chen Yu: "..."
"..."
"..."
"Forget it. Right. After all, you aren't the person you used to be." Chen Yu, as if all his strength had drained from him, turned around and dejectedly pushed open the door. "I understand, men become tainted when they get rich. I, a nobody, ultimately don't have the right to help someone like you who's at the top."
"..." Watching Chen Yu stagger, nearly tumbling to the ground, the chubby neighbor's face almost turned green. "Damn it. Fine, fine, fine! I'll go! Is that OK?"
"There's hope for you yet." Chen Yu immediately turned back around, nodding indifferently, "Then I'll be waiting to see what you can do. It's not about the results; it's about the experience, the insight."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." The chubby neighbor changed his shoes, agreeing noncommittally, "I need to head to class now, you wait here a while. We'll drink together when I get back tonight."
"Go on." Chen Yu stepped aside to clear a path, waving his hand.
"Oh, right." Pushing open the door, the chubby neighbor remembered something, turned back to Chen Yu and said, "This villa, just stay here. I'm moving somewhere else tomorrow."
"Give it to me?" Chen Yu was stunned. "The whole villa?"
"Yes, but you need to wait till I move my stuff out tomorrow. Today, you can stay in the largest bedroom on the second floor. The girls in the house are all for you too," saying this, the chubby neighbor quickly closed the door and left.
"..."
"...Sigh."
He sighed deeply, his expression complex.
"This damn guy is living too comfortably."
"..."
"This isn't helpful for growth."
Turning back, Chen Yu walked his hands clasped behind him, exploring the villa like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, he walked upstairs into the largest bedroom the neighbor had mentioned.
As he entered, he was blown away.
It really was big.
Chen Yu felt that if he had the runs, he might not even make it from the bed to the door in time...
"This is..."
"A fully equipped 6090 graphics card system?"
"Damn, is this a TV? I thought it was a wall..."
"Good lord, a whole-house surround sound system."
"And there stands a silicone doll."
"Mr. Chen." The silicone doll bowed her head, "I am your maid."
Chen Yu: "...Sorry, I didn't realize it was a real person."
The extremely delicate girl bowed again, "The master has already informed us over the phone, from now on, we will serve you in your daily life. Do you need to rest now?"
"Ah... no rush. Sit, let's talk."
"Thank you." The delicate girl revealed a sweet smile, shook her head, and continued standing by the bed.
"What's your name?"
"I'm called Chen Yuer."
Chen Yu: "...Your parents gave you a pretty assertive name."
"The master gave me a new name."
"Oh." Chen Yu nodded, then suddenly exclaimed, "The chubby guy named you? Chen Yu... Er?"
"Yes." The delicate girl nodded.
"He had you serve... him in his sleep?"
"Yes." The girl bowed.
Chen Yu suddenly stood up, put on his hat, and walked out.
His face was pitch black.
He had considered the chubby guy a brother.
But this chubby guy's intentions were deplorable...
'I'm definitely no match for him now.'
'I should not linger here.'
Almost as if fleeing for his life, Chen Yu dashed out of the villa, speeding along the road covered in heavy snow, and flagged down a taxi, climbing in frantically.
"Driver, to the airport!"
"Huh?" The driver turned back, looking startled.
