I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping

Cao Jinse probably couldn't imagine being beaten to death, this is a shameless guy who overestimates his abilities.

"She probably thinks so too. She's fully aware of Jiuding's predicament; even though there are plenty of buyers worldwide besides her, they can't gobble up all of Jiuding's assets in Dongying at once. If I were her, I'd feel confident too."

"So you're facing a tough challenge. If it doesn't work out, just let it be."

CEO Cao is truly understanding. After all, someone is helping out voluntarily, you can't just treat them as free labor. But faced with the excuse offered by Cao Jinse, even though everything was already messed up, Jiang Chen still made the mistake that all men make.

"There's always a way."

It's like a stubborn duck refusing to admit defeat.

Cao Jinse watched silently, even the smartest woman will have moments where she slips up, for example CEO Cao at this moment, who seemed completely fooled by someone's superb acting skills and mouthed a small smile.

"Then good luck."

It was like receiving high praise from the judges for the performance, Boss Jiang's acting became even more indistinguishable from reality.

"Just wait for my good news."

Good news?

There's a saying.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

I'm just afraid that the final result will be a bolt from the blue.

If the goal is simply to give the other person temporary joy, then Boss Jiang is undoubtedly successful, at least making Cao Jinse willing to pull herself out from under heavy pressure and take to the streets in the afternoon.

Just the two of them.

After all, their bodyguards were out slacking off somewhere.

Jiang Chen also used this as an excuse, saying he was going to pick up Tanki Liuli and Mao Tu directly, and the straightforward Miss Cao believed him. So when the car stopped and she saw the hustle and bustle of the cinema outside, she looked puzzled.

"Get out of the car."

Jiang Chen turned off the engine and opened the door, not giving her a chance to respond.

Cao Jinse could only unbuckle her seatbelt and follow him out.

"What are we doing here?"

Inconceivably, there was an expression on her face that could be described as bewildered.

"It's too early for dinner, so catching a movie should time it just right."

Jiang Chen said it matter-of-factly.

Truly a master of time management.

Watching a movie?

Cao Jinse wasn't expecting this. Looking at Jiang Chen, her impressive intelligence momentarily couldn't catch up with his pace. She was still saying, "Aren't we going to find Mao Tu and the others..."

"The movie's about to start, hurry up."

What's going on?

Don't you need a ticket to watch a movie?

Of course you need a ticket to watch a movie. After entering the cinema and following Jiang Chen to the ticket machine, watching it print out two tickets successfully, Cao Jinse fell silent.

"What do you want to drink?"

He then led Cao Jinse to the concession stand.

"Let's get that combo."

He muttered to himself.

A series of operations were performed with seamless efficiency. Not until they were holding drinks and carrying popcorn entering the auditorium did Cao Jinse ask, "When did you buy the tickets?"

"When you let me choose the seats."

He answered matter-of-factly, checking their movie tickets to find the seats.

Weren't you asked to choose a restaurant at that time?

When were you told to buy movie tickets?

"That row."

It must have been the first time Cao Jinse was subject to someone else's decision, and her mind went blank, like a puppet being led by him to sit on the second to last row.

"Do you understand Dongying movies?"

After sitting down, Cao Jinse couldn't help but ask.

"Don't underestimate people."

Someone who probably only knew to say "baka" chuckled, and a few seconds later, Cao Jinse instantly realized where his confidence came from.

When the big screen displayed the movie's opening, she laughed with exasperation.

It turned out to be an animated film.

Detective Conan.

"Have you seen it?"

A query came from beside her.

"What do you think?"

Cao Jinse retorted irritably but with a smile. Despite starting from completely different places, there are always some overlapping areas.

The globally popular anime hadn't been playing for long when his calm demeanor crumbled.

"Why are there no subtitles?"

At his words, Cao Jinse almost burst into laughter as she spoke with a tone of schadenfreude, "Who told you theatrical releases always have subtitles? This is Tokyo."

Alright then.

Fooled by the inertia of his thoughts.

Jiang Chen had thought about it not being in Chinese, but he subconsciously assumed there would be Chinese subtitles.

"Then let's go, and switch to another one."

As a capitalist, he naturally understood the concept of sunk costs deeply. Boss Jiang intended to cut his losses quickly, yet to his surprise, Cao Jinse just sat there, unwilling to move.

"What's the point in switching, wouldn't it be the same? Plus, you'd have to wait and waste time."

On first hearing, it seemed reasonably logical.

"Let's just watch it."

CEO Cao indeed deserves to be CEO Cao, sipping her cola serenely, exuding an air of accepting what comes her way.

The oversight he committed, he could only rectify himself. Jiang Chen could only slump back into his seat, unable to resist asking, "Do you understand Japanese?"

"A bit."

Jiang Chen's eye twitched.

He got played.

Luckily, it wasn't a different genre; it was Detective Conan, so even without understanding, he could somewhat follow the plot. If it had been another movie, it would have been a disaster. Still, the one and a half hours must have been rather trying for Boss Jiang.

However.

He had one redeeming quality.

He didn't use the excuse to go to the bathroom once, but he was very diligent in grabbing popcorn.

Since the package included only one tub but there were two people, their hands could occasionally touch.

At first, Cao Jinse would glance at him, but after a while, she didn't react anymore.

Once again, that old saying.

Habit is a scary word.

Get accustomed to it enough, and it becomes the norm.

After their childhood favorite anime ended, neither of them moved. It seemed both had some similar habits, like waiting until most of the audience left the theater before getting up.

"Still feel like eating?"

Cao Jinse asked indifferently.

"Sure, why not? You finished half the popcorn yourself."

Boss Jiang's gentlemanly demeanor seemed to malfunction randomly.

"The exit is that way."

Upon exiting the theater, noticing her heading in the wrong direction, Boss Jiang promptly pointed it out.

"I need the bathroom."

"..."

Alright then.

She also hadn't left throughout the movie, and that large cup of cola was indeed finished.

CEO Cao's character is definitely one that most wealthy people should emulate, not to pursue deliberate thriftiness, but she rarely wastes anything.

Regular people don't necessarily resent the luxurious lives of the rich. Isn't the so-called pursuit for better life quality through effort?

Having enough capital to enjoy a high-quality life is unquestionable; ordinary people only resent the unscrupulous rich.

"Wait for me at the entrance."

"I need the bathroom too."

"..."

The two of them headed together to the restrooms.

Several men were waiting at the restroom entrance for their girlfriends or wives.

"Call Mao Tu and the others."

Saying that, Cao Jinse entered the women's side.

A couple of minutes later, after washing her hands, Cao Jinse came out to find him already waiting among the other men at the restroom entrance.

Men indeed do finish bathroom visits faster than women.

"Did you call?"

"I did.

Jiang Chen nodded.

"They said they've already eaten."

Cao Jinse looked at him.

"You can call to confirm if you don't believe me."

Jiang Chen thought she probably wouldn't bother with it, yet to his surprise, Cao Jinse actually took out her phone.

Where's the basic trust between people?

Fortunately, Boss Jiang's character is trustworthy, at least most of the time. When the call was made, Mao Tu's response was consistent, saying they were still out shopping, too far away to come.

Cao Jinse put down her phone.

Jiang Chen gave a pure smile, "A table for two is cheaper than one for four, saving you money."

"No wonder Taoist Duanmu dealt with you so harshly."

Mumbling this, Cao Jinse chuckled.

"Let's go."

Elsewhere.

Mao Tu, who had just taken a call, was punching the air and cheekily muttered to herself with clenched teeth, "Jiang Chen! You got lucky!"
