At the bus stop, many people glanced in surprise at Zhang Tiantian, who was laughing and crying at the same time. They didn’t understand why this good-looking girl was behaving so strangely.
But after a moment of surprise, they simply shook their heads and stopped paying attention.
When the bus arrived, everyone boarded and left.
Yes, this was now a society where “minding one’s own business” was the norm — even bonds between relatives and friends were growing increasingly thin, let alone connections between strangers.
And precisely because of this, Zhang Tiantian clearly realized how rare and precious someone like that anonymous benefactor was — someone who, in this somewhat indifferent world, would quietly donate without seeking fame or profit.
“Who could he be? Could it be the same person from last time?”
She thought of the anonymous philanthropist who had made a massive donation during her previous charity project.
Just like before, Zhang Tiantian didn’t believe a passing rich person would donate so much without reason.
But no matter how long she thought about it, she still couldn’t be sure if it was the same person.
Besides, she couldn’t think of any friend she knew who would be wealthy enough to make such a donation — nor could she understand what she had done to deserve such silent support from a hidden benefactor.
At this moment, Zhang Tiantian, overwhelmed by emotions, began to let her imagination run wild.
Meanwhile, the person responsible for that astonishing ten-million-yuan donation sat calmly in a private room at the four-star Shuangyun Tower Hotel, savoring the dishes and two glasses of fine, expensive liquor that had just been served.
After taking a few sips, Mu Bai nodded approvingly.
He had to admit, the Johnnie Walker Diamond Jubilee and the Louis XIII Black Pearl were truly worthy of their hefty price tags.
The two different liquors each offered a unique aftertaste, both rich and unforgettable.
Ordinarily, mixing different liquors would leave most people’s stomachs uncomfortable, and the alcohol would hit them even harder.
But thanks to the mystical elixir that had enhanced his body, Mu Bai’s physical constitution was now terrifyingly strong.
His tolerance for alcohol was far superior to that of ordinary people.
Two glasses of strong liquor were naturally nothing to him.
Soon, between the delicious food and fine wine, more than ten minutes passed in a flash.
After eating his fill, Mu Bai stood up, paid the bill with his card, and prepared to leave.
At that moment, the lobby manager, who had been respectfully attending to him all along, smiled and said, “Sir, we look forward to serving you again.”
“Mm, I’ll come again when I have time. By the way, the wine was really good — worth the price,” Mu Bai nodded.
“Thank you for the compliment. But since you just had two strong drinks, may I suggest you take a short rest? We have VIP suites upstairs, as well as spa and massage services. If you need anything, I can arrange it for you right away,” the lobby manager said thoughtfully.
However, Mu Bai knew that two glasses of wine had no real effect on him. So he simply offered a polite response, waved his hand, and turned to leave.
A few minutes later, he walked out of the hotel and got into his Bugatti Veyron supercar.
He was preparing to drive back to his villa, but just as he was about to start the engine, a thought popped into his mind — about the gaming investment that Xu Jinhuan had mentioned during their chat a few days ago.
“Hmm? Right, Xu Jinhuan mentioned a game with pretty good potential.”
Remembering this, Mu Bai picked up his phone and opened QQ to message Xu Jinhuan while slowly driving out of the hotel parking lot.
After he exited the parking lot and merged onto the highway, Xu Jinhuan had already replied positively on QQ.
Xu Jinhuan: (happy emoji) “Mumu (affectionate nickname for Mu Bai), I’m waiting for you! Have you eaten? If not, I’ll make you something.”
Mu Bai: “No need, I already ate. By the way, when will the person in charge of that game arrive?”
While driving, Mu Bai put on a headset and spoke to Xu Jinhuan via voice chat.
Xu Jinhuan (voice): “The studio for the game Primordial Immortal Fate is close to my home. I just messaged him — he said he’ll be here in five minutes.”
Mu Bai: “Alright, I’ll be there in about ten minutes.”
Xu Jinhuan: “Okay, drive safely. We’ll wait for you.”
Mu Bai: “Mm.”
After a few more exchanges, Mu Bai exited QQ and focused on driving toward Xu Jinhuan’s home.
