After a long arduous hour of paperwork, verification procedures, signatures, and confirmations, the transfer of ¥50,000,000 was finally completed.

Benny watched ¥50,000,000 dissapear from his account.

Well... Not really dissapeared, it was now sitting safely in Selena’s account. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Throughout the process, Lin Mei had remained calm and professional, at least on the surface.

However, when Benny first mentioned transferring fifty million yuan, even she had visibly paused.

For a moment, her expression had become noticeably more serious.

Only after confirming that both accounts belonged to Eastern Prosperity Bank did she finally relax.

Large transfers always attracted attention.

Transfers within the same bank were much simpler to handle.

When everything was finished, Benny checked his balance.

Even after transferring fifty million yuan, he still had more than four million yuan remaining in his personal account.

Looking at the number, he nodded in satisfaction.

It was still plenty. If he ran out of money during this three months, that was on him.

After bidding farewell to Selena, Hong Yueyao, and Lin Mei, he left them behind to discuss whatever financial matters they wanted to discuss.

As he walked out of the bank, his thoughts drifted toward his sister.

He had shown her that he had more than fifty million yuan.

Fifty million was a lot, it was enough to buy land, build a house, purchase a luxury car and still leave enough money behind that most people would never need to worry about finances again.

Even spending lavishly would not be an issue.

Yet from beginning to end, the only thing Selena had talked about was putting the money into the bank and talk about how much interest she could make a month.

She truly only thought about living off the interest.

Paying off the family debt slowly, helping the family and preparing for the future.

There had been no greed in her eyes throughout the whole process, not even a little.

Even when faced with fifty million yuan.

Till the very end, she had only been thinking about everyone else.

Benny silently shook his head.

You should be a little more greedy. Of all people, you deserve to be selfish once in a while.

The thought lingered briefly before he pushed it aside.

Hailing a cab, Benny soon arrived at Autumn Investment.

The moment he stepped out of the vehicle, his expression turned solemn.

Today was the day the GLS would be delivered.

Which also meant today was the day Selena would discover exactly how much he had spent.

Benny felt a chill run down his spine.

He already knew what was coming.

She would definitely say things like:

"Why buy a new car when a used one works perfectly fine?"

"Do you know how much value it loses the moment it leaves the dealership?"

Thinking about it, Benny’s scalp went numb.

"No."

He shook his head firmly.

"I’m not going home today."

The decision was made instantly.

His survival instincts had taken over.

"If I stay at the office, she can’t scold me."

As for where he would sleep?

Easy, He would simply make his office more comfortable.

With that thought, Benny stepped into the office.

Then he stopped as his eyes widened... not far away, Neo was sitting beside Xu Ming.

The two were staring at a computer screen and a game was running on it.

The pair looked completely absorbed.

Benny’s eyes immediately lit up.

Look at that! Our risk analyst is actually playing games during work hours!

A wave of joy surged through him.

Immense joy.

What was a company supposed to do if it wanted to lose money?

Simple.

Employees needed to slack off.

Seeing people playing games in the office was practically a sign of a bright future.

For a moment, Benny felt genuinely touched.

Finally.

Someone in this company was behaving the way an employee of a loss-making business should.

Just as Benny was enjoying the sight, one of the nearby employees happened to glance toward the entrance.

The employee froze and then his eyes widened.

"Boss!"

The sudden shout immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

The moment they saw Benny standing there, many of them instinctively straightened their posture.

Meanwhile, Xu Ming felt his heart skip a beat.

He had been discussing Titan Manufacturing with Neo while a game happened to be running in the background.

Unfortunately, from Benny’s angle, it probably looked as though he had been playing games during work hours.

Before Xu Ming could explain himself, Benny had already walked over.

The entire office quietly watched.

Some employees were already preparing themselves for a lecture.

After all, no boss liked seeing employees playing games during work.

However, what happened next completely shattered their expectations.

Benny stopped beside Xu Ming and then he patted him on the shoulder.

"It’s not good for an employee to always be stuck working."

Xu Ming blinked while Benny nodded approvingly.

"It’s good to slack off from time to time."

"..."

"..."

The office became silent.

Several employees wondered if they had misheard.

Even Xu Ming himself looked confused.

Then, suddenly, a memory surfaced in the minds of several employees.

Earlier just yesterday, Xu Ming had mentioned something.

The boss is paying special attention to me.

At the time, nobody had believed him.

Now, however... the employees exchanged looks.

Maybe he wasn’t bragging after all.

Meanwhile, Benny had already moved on.

He walked over and patted Neo on the shoulder as well.

"You’re doing good."

Neo looked up and looked at Benny.

Confusion immediately appeared on his face.

Doing good? What was he talking about?

Out of nowhere, Benny had appeared and started praising him.

Had something happened?

More importantly, What happened to the part where you introduced yourself as the CEO?

You told me we were getting hired by an investment firm.

Not that I’m getting hired by you.

Still, Neo gave a thumbs-up out of habit.

"Good to hear."

Benny nodded in satisfaction.

The exchange lasted only a few seconds.

Neither of them found anything strange about it.

Unfortunately, everyone else in the office felt differently.

The atmosphere became increasingly bizarre.

How can he be so casual with the boss?

The same thought appeared in everyone’s mind.

Most people would have been terrified standing that close to the company’s owner.

Yet Neo looked as relaxed as if he were chatting with an old friend.

The employees couldn’t understand it.

Meanwhile, Xu Ming quietly adjusted his glasses.

For some reason, he suddenly felt that Neo’s position in the company might be far more unusual than it appeared.
