After hearing Liam speak about buying a mountain, Tzuyu weakly said, “Why do you want to buy this mountain? It is so scenic here. Do you wish to level the mountain and build houses?”

As though the Tibetan mastiff was responding to Tzuyu, when she finished speaking, it barked twice. Arf Arf. Later, he dragged the lackey along with him, running all over before settling at the bottom of a tree, leaving a mark…

Liam was overjoyed looking at it and started singing. “Year 2014, that day in spring~gg~, there was a Tibetan mastiff~ on the Tianjing Mountain in heaven, it peed in a circle~ee~~~. That was certainly fate, fate! This mountain shall belong to me. I will be the king!”

“…” Tzuyu was left speechless.

Lackeys: “Young Master, this song is a stroke of genius—mighty and forceful!”

The crowd was walking the dogs happily when the sound of an engine starting suddenly roared. A red luxury sports car halted before the crowd. The car had a streamlined body, though it was short. Rather than calling it a sports car, it was more a piece of art. Especially those wings with the letter “G,” clearly announcing that this was one of the best sports car in the world—Gentley.

To come at this time, for a car like this to stop where it did, even a fool knew that it had come for Liam. Not being able to tell if it were an enemy or a friend, the nine lackeys stood in front of Liam with the dogs at once, guarding tightly.

The car door opened and a couple exited the car. The man’s face looked young; he should be barely 18 or 19 years old. He was handsome, but his stare was cold, the corners of his mouth expressing disdain. He certainly didn’t look friendly.

The woman looked about 23 or 24 years old. She had a beautiful but expressionless face, though it exuded a slight charm. Chilling yet charming, both combined beautifully on her, with nothing looking out of place. She was tall. In Liam’s eye, she should be at least 1.7 meters tall. It was nothing surprising for a woman to be tall. What was different was how well proportioned she was. Her round and slender long legs and her body had the golden leg-to-body ratio. Complemented with black lace and black heels, she almost looked lethal.

Liam wasn’t sure who these two people were. However, the driver seemed to have seen them before and hurriedly bowed to them. “Wang Mingyu greets Master Ancheng and Miss Bae Suzy.” He might be greeting them, but subconsciously, his body was leaning toward Liam. After working in the Manoban family for more than 20 years, he knew exactly who harbored ill intentions toward Liam.

The couple completely ignored the driver’s greetings. Ancheng grinned as he walked toward Liam, scanning him up and down. “On the way here, I was wondering who could have created such a scene, bringing so many people to walk dogs. Seems that I was right, it was indeed the prodigal Liam. Haha.”

Liam knew immediately that this man had to be another person from the Manoban family who was jealous of him. Naturally, Liam did not treat him kindly. He stuck out his little finger and started picking at his nose. “How does it concern you how I squander? You had to stop your car to take a look? Why? Did you have your eyes set on one of my dogs? You can take it if you want, I don’t mind. If it’s not enough, there are 400 more there. You can take your pick.”

Hearing Liam say he had more than 400 dogs, Ancheng roared with laughter and started slapping his thigh. “More than 400 dogs? Hahaha, my brother Liam, you can sure come up with new ways to squander. I’m not as capable as that.”

Although Tzuyu looked down on Liam and couldn’t stand to be near him, she did not hesitate to side Liam at this moment and angrily claimed. “Liam can do whatever he wants. Who are you to make fun of him?”

“Aye, who are you, then? Why are you walking dogs with my brother Liam?” Hong Ancheng stared Tzuyu up and down before suddenly coming to a realization. “Oh, I know. You’re the lady from the Chou family, the one that is betrothed to Liam, right? Aiyaya, you’re quite pretty. It’s a pity you have a tough life. Such a pity.”

“I’ll do what I want. Who are you to care?” Tzuyu said in her sweet voice, though she raised her eyebrows in anger. She still had the little white Chow Chow that looked like a panda in her arms. It looked slightly comical with her expression.

Liam secretly stuck his thumb out toward Tzuyu. Hehe, good job! Chewy, I didn’t dote on you for nothing. He coughed and said, “Would you just speak your piece? My time is very precious. Every minute costs a few hundred thousand.”

Ancheng laughed again. “You mean you squander a few hundred thousand every minute?”

The tall and beautiful Bae Suzy couldn’t stand to watch the conversation between Ancheng and the rest. She frowned and stopped Ancheng. “Enough. We did not get out of the car to allow you to talk rubbish. All you’ve earned this year is only about 3 million yuan. How much better are you than Liam?” Her tone was as cold as her expression, but her words were powerful. Ancheng stopped smiling and obediently backed off.

Suzy looked at Liam among the crowd and sighed quietly.

When Liam had been born, he had created quite the stir in the Manoban family. Weiguo Manoban was the first genius in hundreds of years within the Manoban family when it came to earning money. His wife, Lan Ruoxi, was a godsent lady. Within five years, they had created a huge split between the families within the Manoban family. But the heavens had played a joke on them: they had had difficulty conceiving a child. After being married for 5 or 6 years, there had been no news from Lan Ruoxi. That had been quite upsetting to everyone in the Manoban family.

It was only in the 7th year after they had gotten married that Lan Ruoxi finally had a child. The entire Manoban family had been overjoyed, and the celebrations had gone on for a month. On the day that Liam had been born, almost all the influential families had sent their congratulations. Everyone under the Manoban family regarded Liam as a lucky child. Almost everyone had given him their most humble smile, trying their best to get into his good books.

But the good times didn’t last. Liam was born weak and sickly. He lacked in his studies. When he grew older, he wasn’t good at business either. His only interest was squandering, squandering in all sorts of manners.

Once upon a time, Bae Suzy, who was part of the Manoban family, had envied Liam’s position.

But it seemed that Liam was on a different level now. Judging by Liam’s performance in recent years, he was probably only at the bottom half of the list. Sure, his parents would take care of him and leave him a fortune, but it wouldn’t mean anything. From the way he was squandering, it would only take 10 or maybe 20 years before he became a pauper with nothing.
