章 16: Chapter 15
**Noon.**
As soon as the school bell rang, students began heading to the cafeteria in small groups.
"Old Chen!!"
A chubby boy sitting behind Chen Ye patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, lunch is on me today."
The chubby boy's name was Jiang Tao, one of the few friends of the body Chen Ye now inhabited.
Chen Ye smiled and asked, "Feeling generous today? Did you strike it rich?"
"Hehe!" Jiang Tao grinned. "I did a dungeon run last night and got a 'C' rating, earning 300 points. My dad was so happy, he gave me a thousand bucks!"
Chen Ye understood now. This guy's offer to treat him to lunch was just an excuse to show off.
He played along, feigning surprise. "Impressive, what dungeon was it?"
"Haha, it was 'Goodbye Mr. Loser'... Old Chen, want the strategy? Call me 'bro' and I'll share it with you!"
Jiang Tao said proudly.
Chen Ye, not interested, stood up and said, "Didn't you say you were treating me to lunch? Let's go!"
Chen Ye knew a bit about the 'Goodbye Mr. Loser' dungeon. The main task was based on reputation, and it had been thoroughly explored by others. He had no interest in it.
"Wow, Old Chen, acting all tough now? Let's see how long you can keep it up... Anyway, if you want the strategy, you have to call me 'bro,'" Jiang Tao shouted as he followed Chen Ye, deliberately loud to attract attention from the other students.
Typical teenage need for attention!
Ignoring him, Chen Ye asked, "So, what are we eating?"
Jiang Tao gritted his teeth and said, "We're going to De Li Restaurant for a good meal!"
**De Li Restaurant.**
This was the best restaurant near the school. Not only was the food good, but the ambiance was excellent. Of course, the prices were also high. Affluent students often dined there.
Today, Jiang Tao was clearly willing to splurge to show off in front of Chen Ye.
However, Chen Ye was not someone who took advantage of others. He planned to treat Jiang Tao in return once he received the 20 million in gold bars.
They entered the restaurant, found a small table, and Jiang Tao promptly ordered dishes totaling at least three to four hundred yuan. He was probably craving the food himself.
The restaurant was bustling with many customers, including several students from nearby schools.
"Wow, the school beauty, Wen Xingyi, is here too!" Jiang Tao exclaimed, nudging Chen Ye. "Old Chen, look at the entrance."
Following Jiang Tao's indication, Chen Ye saw a group of girls entering the restaurant. They were wearing the same school uniform as him, indicating they were from the same school. One of the girls stood out with her stunning looks, fair skin, and long legs, exuding youthful charm.
From his body's memories, Chen Ye knew this girl was the school beauty, Wen Xingyi.
Chen Ye glanced at her briefly before looking away. Despite her beauty, she didn't hold much allure for him.
Jiang Tao also just took a few more glances before turning away. Contrary to the stereotype, not many people in reality lose their composure upon seeing a beautiful girl.
"Old Chen, do you really not want the 'Goodbye Mr. Loser' dungeon strategy?" Jiang Tao asked.
"That dungeon has been overplayed. I'm not interested," Chen Ye replied.
"That's a shame…" Jiang Tao said, then added, "Old Chen, actually, there's a school beauty in the 'Goodbye Mr. Loser' dungeon too. Though not as pretty as our Wen Xingyi, her figure is top-notch! But she likes talented guys, not easy to impress…"
Hearing this, Chen Ye's interest was piqued. He remembered the plot of 'Goodbye Mr. Loser' and knew how the protagonist won over the school beauty.
If he went, he was confident he could get the school beauty to fall for him... but he was just entertaining the thought.
He wasn't so trivial as to waste a dungeon attempt just for a girl. Yes, Chen Ye was a true straight man!
Jiang Tao lowered his voice and whispered, "I heard from someone that our classmate Li Jing managed to hook up with the school beauty in the 'Goodbye Mr. Loser' dungeon. Don't know if it's true..."
He said this with a look of envy and jealousy.
Chen Ye was speechless, marveling at the boundless energy of these teenagers. Although his body was that of a teenager, his mental age was much more mature.
Soon, their food arrived. The delicious meal quickly shut Jiang Tao up as he ate voraciously. In no time, several dishes were polished off.
"Old Chen, are you full? We can order more if you're not."
"I'm full!" Chen Ye said, standing up. "I'm going to the restroom. Wait for me here."
"Sure, go ahead!" Jiang Tao took out his phone and started browsing the internet.
Just like in the real world, many people here were also glued to their phones.
...
As Chen Ye washed his hands in the men's restroom, he overheard a girl talking on the phone outside:
"Dad, when will you be back? I need to make the trade tonight, and the gold bars must be ready in advance... Yes… No need to bring it, I've already had lunch with my classmates... Also, 20 million in gold bars might not be enough; I have to cover half the transaction fee, which comes to about 23.5 million… Okay, I'll wait for you at school."
Hearing this, Chen Ye's heart skipped a beat.
Pretending nothing had happened, he calmly walked out of the restroom and saw the girl on the phone...
