C21 Successful Wish Obtaining the Beautiful Ceo's Wife

The allure of instant wealth triumphed over reason, and he asked with urgency, "Can the money be transferred from places like England or the Island State?"

"As long as it's not coming from Huaxia, it should be fine, right?"

Yang Ling was truly unscrupulous. In his quest for riches, he disregarded the well-being of international comrades.

"Ding! The System will reallocate funds based on each country's population percentage in the world."

Hearing this, Yang Ling was utterly dumbfounded.

With Huaxia's large population, if the redistribution were proportional, who knew how many would suffer? And with such a windfall in his account, he was sure to be seized for experimental research.

"You really are a swindler!"

With a heavy sigh, Yang Ling abandoned any hope for the deceitful System. Offhandedly, he remarked, "If you won't give me the money, at least grant me a super wealthy, beautiful wife, can't you?"

"Ding... Wish granted. The System will now search for suitable candidates nearby."

"What!?"

Yang Ling was so startled he nearly leaped out of his skin. It was a mere offhand comment, yet it had actually triggered a successful wish.

Wasn't this an unrestricted opportunity to wish for anything? If not ten trillion, couldn't he at least wish to be a superhero?

Or perhaps gain some unique abilities.

He frantically attempted to retract his wish, only to receive a chilly response from the System: "Unlimited wishmaking opportunities cannot be revoked."

Yang Ling chuckled wryly upon hearing that. But then it dawned on him—the System would surely never grant him superpowers or any extraordinary abilities.

As Yang Ling stewed in his frustration, the System's voice chimed in once more: "Ding! Match successful. Your wife comes from a family worth 4 billion and is a stunning 23-year-old CEO. The System will arrange this in the most reasonable manner."

"Ding! You've earned 1 Charm Value."

Yang Ling gasped at the revelation. Four billion—that was wealthier than Tian Chaoyan's family, wasn't it?

A beautiful CEO for a wife, he was genuinely excited. "System, where is she? What's her name? I want to meet her!"

"Ding! Please don't worry, host. You'll be meeting her very soon. The System has selected an excellent match for you, and I assure you, you won't be disappointed."

Upon hearing this, Yang Ling felt a mix of anticipation and trepidation. This System was infuriatingly unpredictable—what kind of wife would it choose for him?

But what was done was done, and he found himself settling into a sense of resignation.

A beautiful CEO? Bring it on. He wasn't intimidated.

With a renewed mindset, Yang Ling was about to head to the bookstore as planned when his phone rang. Pulling out his new phone, he was surprised to see it was a call from his father.

His dad had lived a life of frugality, dreading the cost of a phone call. He wouldn't ring unless it was important. Something must be up.

True to his hunch, his father insisted he come home for dinner that evening, claiming he had an important announcement to make, shrouded in secrecy.

After confirming he'd be there, Yang Ling ended the call and made his way to Xinhua Bookstore.

The proverb goes, 'There is a path through the mountain of books for those who persevere, and a boundless sea of learning for those who endure.'

It's a creed for countless scholars, yet clearly not one that suited Yang Ling.

In front of a shelf crammed with college entrance exam prep books, Yang Ling rifled through each volume at lightning speed.

He spent no more than ten seconds on each book, imprinting their content in his mind like photographs before swiftly moving on to the next.

To the casual observer, he appeared to be searching for a book, but in truth, he wasn't just searching or reading—he was devouring knowledge.

Yet, with time ticking away, a slight frown creased his forehead.
