From the first day of school, Gu Wanrong’s dorm split into two groups: Gu Wanrong and Yu Yingying, and Xu Rong and Jiang Yanyao. Xu Rong needed a follower, and Jiang Yanyao, having failed to win over Gu Wanrong and Yu Yingying, attached herself to Xu Rong.
That afternoon, military training began. Yu Yingying told Gu Wanrong that her brother had arranged for a medical exemption, explaining why she wasn’t present. Gu Wanrong realized that the man who had dropped Yu Yingying off at the dorm was her brother.
On the training ground, the freshmen, in their uniforms, chatted in groups. Gu Wanrong, due to Yu Yingying’s absence and her own introversion, stood alone.
Her natural beauty, untouched by makeup, captivated those around her. Her appearance drew admiring glances, causing her slight discomfort, as she wasn’t yet accustomed to being the center of attention.
After the instructors arrived and organized the classes, the head instructor and school officials gave speeches, officially starting the training.
“Enough talking! Fall in line!” the instructor, a tall, dark young man, barked, silencing the students.
The entire afternoon was spent standing and squatting under the September sun. Even with her increased endurance, Gu Wanrong found it grueling. Afterward, she resolved to improve her constitution.
Attribute points could only be obtained from blind boxes, and she only had 17 draws left. She needed to spend at least 100 million yuan within the next two days to guarantee enough draws for a ten-draw session.
On her way back to the dorm, Gu Wanrong pondered her options. She could purchase real estate and jewelry.
Gu Wanrong messaged Hu Yue, a real estate agent: “Hu Yue Jie, do you have any well-located commercial properties?”
Hu Yue, always watching for messages from her valuable client, replied promptly.
Hu Yue (Anxin Real Estate): Yes, Ms. Gu. Hu Yue (Anxin Real Estate): We have properties in the city center commercial street and the Jinheng Shopping Center. Hu Yue (Anxin Real Estate): [Sent images of several properties]
Gu Wanrong called her. “Hu Yue Jie, besides commercial buildings and residences, do you have any office buildings in the city center?”
C City wasn’t a first-tier city, so property prices weren’t exorbitant. The commercial properties Hu Yue had shown were mostly small, ranging from a few hundred thousand to over a million yuan. Gu Wanrong inquired about office buildings.
Hu Yue answered immediately. “Well-located office buildings in the city center rarely sell individually, Ms. Gu. Are you…?” She asked after hearing Gu Wanrong’s requirements.
“I prefer an entire building, or at least an entire floor,” Gu Wanrong explained. The larger the purchase, the more blind box draws she’d get.
This was a huge deal for Hu Yue. She was ecstatic.
“Based on your needs, we have several whole floors of office space in the city center available. The information is attached. I’ll also look for entire buildings for you.”
“I’ll take all the whole floors and whole buildings. Also, get all the commercial properties in Jinheng and the city center that are over 100 square meters,” Gu Wanrong decided.
“I can transfer the funds and complete the paperwork today,” she added, emphasizing her need for speed.
Hu Yue was thrilled. “Yes, I can have it all done for you tonight.”
That night, Gu Wanrong purchased several floors of office space in the city center, five commercial properties, and five residential units, spending over 200 million yuan.
With the five-times daily bonus, her system bonus, and her remaining draws, she had 43 draws.
A message appeared: “[Huaxia Bank] Bao Fu transferred…”
After training, Xu Rong didn’t wait for Jiang Yanyao, who returned to the dorm alone. Gu Wanrong found the lights off and curtains drawn when she returned; Jiang Yanyao’s shoes were hidden under the desk. Jiang Yanyao was seething with resentment. Xu Rong treated her like a servant, Yu Yingying ignored her, and Gu Wanrong, an orphan, seemed to effortlessly buy property. She felt invisible, overshadowed by Gu Wanrong’s beauty.
That night, Gu Wanrong used the system for two ten-draw sessions, obtaining ‘Delicate Nose and Lips,’ ‘Peach Blossom Cheeks,’ ‘Willow Waist,’ ‘Shencheng Hengxin International Finance Building,’ a villa in the J City city center, and 9 free attribute points. She allocated the points to increase her constitution, excluding explosive power.
