Chapter 2374: Chapter 1504: Love Me, Love My Dog

Question King Zhou, understand King Zhou, become King Zhou, surpass King Zhou!

Alright.

Talking about "becoming" and "surpassing" is indeed too arrogant. King Zhou is the supreme in the human world, enjoying the Three Palaces and Six Courtyards. How could modern people in a law-abiding society possibly challenge...

Wait!

Something’s not right.

King Zhou of Shang, Di Xin, apparently did not have the Three Palaces and Six Courtyards with seventy-two concubines, that was a configuration enjoyed by later emperors.

King Zhou was not an emperor; he was the last Human Emperor of Huaxia.

According to unofficial histories, he had only one wife and two concubines. And if you look through the Divine Enthronement, King Zhou had only six women.

History cannot be verified.

But whether it’s three or six, these two numbers are not so unreachable.

Even if we take the maximum "6," counting on fingers... perhaps, it seems, Boss Jiang completely has the chance to stand shoulder to shoulder with the last Human Emperor of Huaxia.

Ahem.

Just kidding.

The wheels of history roll forward, society changes again and again, but just like Jiang Chen and Pei Yunxi’s consensus — the fundamental color of human civilization has never changed.

The emperor is gone.

Monogamy has become the basic order written into the law.

But did the "Three Palaces and Six Courtyards" disappear?

No.

It’s just that it exists in other forms now.

In the past, they lived together surrounded by walls; now they don’t need to, they can live freely, distributed all over the world, in Jiangnan, or perhaps in a neighborhood.

"Okay, so it’s settled, no one can back out."

Boss Jiang lightly patted his leg, feeling relaxed and cozy.

How could he not feel cozy?

Who is Pei Yunxi?

She is the national goddess sought after by the masses.

She is the Eastern Venus breaking aesthetic differences.

She is an angel fallen to earth!

If it were someone else, they’d definitely be jumping around with joy; he is considered composed.

What are her demands?

Respect.

Freedom!

It suits him perfectly!

Life is not just about romance and affection; there are many meaningful things worth pursuing, so there’s no need to be tied together.

What’s that saying.

Distance creates beauty.

Gathering closely will inevitably lead to friction, and friction leads to quarrels. After all, he is not an emperor; even the supreme emperor cannot suppress the chaos in the harem.

So.

Pei Yunxi is indeed exceptionally wise, her demands completely fit the times.

Let flowers be flowers, let trees be trees.

You’re good, I’m good, everyone’s good!

"Whoever backs out is a puppy."

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but laugh, tilting his head, "Can you not be so cute."

Not just talking.

His hand rose again, intending to place it on her yoga pants.

Just because a consensus was reached doesn’t mean you can touch freely, right?

The consensus has prerequisites.

First, you must respect the willingness of the women.

Indeed, Pei Yunxi moved aside again, perhaps to avoid An Lushan’s claw, at the same time retorting, "Can you not be so cheesy."

Jiang Chen looked at that cold and classical face, sighed, "You truly are irresistible."

He was told not to be cheesy.

Yet it got more and more corny.

The crown of man will ultimately be placed on a woman’s head.

All the fascinating sceneries in the world don’t compare to the allure of this face.

Thankfully.

The simping system arrived just in time.

All gifts from fate have already been secretly priced.

And similarly, the hardships and sweat put in will nourish charming flowers in the future.

"Do you know what you look like right now?"

Pei Yunxi sat about two positions away, neither too close nor too far, enough to avoid being touched, while keeping a certain amount of dignity for someone.

"Like what?"

At this point, Jiang Chen could wholeheartedly and burden-free admire this woman capable of matching any extravagant words in the world.

He knew.

From today onwards, she becomes truly his private collection.

Others can only indulge their eyes through a glass showcase.

While Jiang Chen was still immersed in a surge of accomplishment, Pei Yunxi’s response froze his expression.

"A creep."

"..."

Jiang Chen then burst into laughter, unsure if it was to cover the embarrassment, "Have you seen such a handsome creep?"

Pei Yunxi surprisingly did not rebut.

A man with a belly full of knowledge exudes confidence.

Whether a man is attractive often heavily relies on material conditions. If an ugly duckling succeeds in entrepreneurship, although his features don’t change, people’s perception of him will change dramatically; the thickness of one’s wallet is the most effective cosmetic surgery.

Plus, Comrade Jiang Chen’s looks aren’t lacking; he was one of the distinguished ones in the simping community.

And the most crucial.

He is young.

Excessively young.

He might not be the richest man in the world yet, but looking at the global billionaires list, which of those listed can compare with him?

At least they’re all uncle-aged.

"Li’er, where is she?"

Jiang Chen tries to make conversation.

The mindset has changed now.

For Jiang Chen, Luo Li’er is no longer just a junior schoolmate.

But because of this, whenever he thinks of this girl, he feels slightly unnatural. Although Pei Yunxi said she takes responsibility for her family, if he imagines what he’ll do if the girl finds out about his relationship with her sister, how will he face those bright black eyes then?

Oh.

It’s always this high moral cultivation’s fault.

"In France."

Hmm — What? 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"France?"

Jiang Chen was surprised.

"Yes, Paris."

"On a trip?"

"Work."

"Work?"

Jiang Chen paused.

"She’s already graduated."

Jiang Chen was shocked.

Luo Li’er has graduated?

But if he calculates, it seems right; he has been out of school for quite some time now.
