Chapter 1726: Chapter 704: Same Day Every Year_2

He took out his phone, thought for a moment, then opened Moments. He snapped a photo and began to edit the text:

"The only thing in the world you can get without effort is damn age."

Then he clicked send.

After posting on Moments, Zhou Wang looked up and found that Young Master Zhang and the others had stood up and started dancing wildly together. Sitting next to him was a girl with extremely exaggeratedly long legs.

Her features were pure, and her eyes were like autumn waters.

She was dressed as a bunny girl, her dazzlingly white legs mostly wrapped in black stockings. She had even specially worn a round leg ring with a hollow heart on her upper thigh, making her even more alluring.

While Zhou Wang was examining her, she awkwardly crossed her legs and tugged at her skirt, which was so short that it barely covered the base of her thighs no matter how much she tugged.

But there were safety shorts underneath, so nothing was really exposed — though her expression indicated a clear discomfort.

"What’s your name, Huang what?"

Zhou Wang recalled she was from the dance academy but couldn’t remember her full name.

"Huang Ying."

The girl shyly replied and proactively explained, "Well, it was Young Master Zhang who asked me to take care of you..."

"Do I look drunk to you?"

Zhou Wang asked with some amusement.

Seeing her at a loss for words, Zhou Wang didn’t want to make her uncomfortable any further. He had to admit that Young Master Zhang had a good eye. This girl probably just started her sophomore year and hadn’t been tainted by society’s corruption yet. Her innocence wasn’t something that could be faked—at least not in front of someone who had seen as many women as Zhou Wang.

"Do you often go out to... um, work to support yourself?"

Zhou Wang wasn’t sure what word to use, so he asked euphemistically.

But Huang Ying seemed not to catch the underlying meaning in Zhou Wang’s words and just explained honestly:

"Not often. Actually, the school doesn’t allow us to perform outside privately. It was Mr. Zhang who sponsored our school, and our teacher took us to perform at Mr. Zhang’s group, and that’s how I met Young Master Zhang... This is also the first time I’ve worn this kind of performance outfit."

Zhou Wang took a moment to process and realized that the "Mr. Zhang" Huang Ying referred to must be Young Master Zhang’s mother, Zhang Shiling.

Zhou Wang suddenly understood the connection. He had never heard Young Master Zhang mention it. He guessed this dance academy’s special resources were originally meant for himself, and since it was Zhou Wang’s birthday and a special occasion, Young Master Zhang was willing to make it happen.

While chatting intimately with the pure dance girl, Zhou Wang occasionally checked Moments.

On the day when the news of Zhou Wang’s "bankruptcy" hadn’t yet spread, his Moments were as bustling as ever. The post, having been up for less than twenty minutes, already had over sixty likes and thirty to forty comments, probably because it was peak time for browsing Moments.

"Old classmate, I remembered yesterday that today is your birthday. I wanted to send you a red envelope, but I was afraid you’d not care for the small amount I could offer (dog face)... Happy Birthday!"

"Mr. Zhou, I’m in Magic City too, happy birthday!"

"Damn, no wonder someone said on Douyin that Lafin is booked for today. I was wondering who it was... Happy Birthday!"

"The impressive thing isn’t the alcohol on the table, is it? Louis XIII can be drunk by the ’hit,’ happy birthday!"

"I think Zhou Wang is wearing an even more impressive watch, a Patek Philippe Sky Moon, starting at eight figures..."

"Oh my god, that ring is the same style as G-Dragon’s, a Jacob & Co. Paraiba Black Diamond ring..."

Comments, at some point, started deviating from the original topic. Although Zhou Wang was sure that his WhatsApp only included people he knew aside from some top-tier salespeople, he couldn’t immediately identify who was who because many hadn’t changed their notes.

But it didn’t matter; everyone was equally superficial. He had just casually snapped a photo, yet they only saw what they wanted to see.

Perhaps, behind his back at this moment, someone was sarcastically saying he was showing off again.

As for the women... nearly all tacitly refrained from commenting on Zhou Wang’s post; only the likes of Xu Wenqian and Wang Xiaoxiao would give Zhou Wang a like.

Zhou Wang looked at it for a while, found it uninteresting, tossed the phone aside, raised his glass to the dome muttering:

"Brother Tongzi, happy birthday to you too... let’s hope we stay this impressive."

...

As the birthday star and today’s absolute main character, it was impossible for Zhou Wang to stay curled up on the couch the whole time, so he was soon dragged to the dance floor by Young Master Zhang and the others.

Not having drank for days, Zhou Wang was determined to not leave sober tonight, indulging one last time before his entrepreneurial adventure. So he acted very high-spirited.

First, he danced with Young Master Zhang and the gang. As he moved from table to table, it felt like stepping into a lair entangled with warmth and softness, surrounded by flashes of black silk, white silk, and the occasional fishnet stockings, mixed with various high-end or niche perfume scents, almost making Zhou Wang’s sense of smell fail.

He only remembered that the last clear moment was in the dance floor when his tongue was already tying. Zhou Wang, clutching Huang Ying’s slim waist, loudly boasted to Young Master Zhang and the others:

"Wait for me... one year, in a year at most, I’ll make sure each of you earns at least a hundred million — I’m telling you, I, Zhou Wang, am saying this, remember it!"

"Come, bottoms up!"

Someone handed a glass of alcohol to Zhou Wang, and he naturally accepted it, raising his hand to drink it in one go.

"Brother Dog, impressive!"

Laughter, screams, and women’s coquetry rushed into Zhou Wang’s ears.

As the alcohol surged, he couldn’t hold on anymore... his eyes closed, blacking out on the spot.

...

Zhou Wang always wakes up very early after getting drunk.

This time was no exception. When he opened his eyes dizzily, it was just before dawn outside.

Zhou Wang stared blankly at the ceiling for a while. As consciousness slowly returned to his body, he gradually became aware of a sensation... warmth.

Extremely warm.

He was only covered with a thin quilt, but around his body was an enveloping hot temperature accompanied by a strange softness and smoothness. Comforted, Zhou Wang wanted to close his eyes again.

But with his head still aching slightly, Zhou Wang, realizing that another nap wasn’t feasible, struggled to move a bit, awakening the two women embracing him on either side.

"Hubby~"

"Mr. Zhou."

One voice had a coquettish tone, a bit heated, while the other was softer and seemed more reserved.

"It’s you two."

Zhou Wang glanced sideways. The two girls nestled in his arms, one alluring, the other bright and cheerful, were his two contract PR representatives from the 9th-floor club, Bai Feifei and Li Nuoyi.

Just then, Zhou Wang realized that this was indeed the 606 room of the 9th-floor club, his exclusive room.

"How did I end up here?"

Zhou Wang struggled to sit up on the bed. Without needing further urging, Li Nuoyi got up and poured a warm glass of honey water from the bedside, while Bai Feifei, kneeling, began massaging Zhou Wang’s temples with her slender fingers.

"Last night, Mr. Guo and the others brought you here. Hubby, your Ferrari is also parked downstairs, though it seems like it got a bump..."

"A bump?"

Zhou Wang frowned, resting his head against Bai Feifei’s chest.

"Yeah, you insisted on parking it yourself, and no one could stop you."

"I see... alright then."

A scratch on a new car on its first day out is a disgrace to any experienced driver. Money wasn’t the issue here but the fact that he behaved so recklessly when drunk was a bit embarrassing.

Zhou Wang pushed away the honey water offered by Li Nuoyi, saying, "I don’t rely on that to sober up... it’s useless."

The girl with an intense youthful vibe, Li Nuoyi, exchanged a glance with Bai Feifei, blushing slightly before slipping under the covers.

Zhou Wang couldn’t stop her in time and just opened his mouth... Oh well, I didn’t mean to use this method!
