Super Rich by Doing as You Please

”Okay, I’ll have someone contact you later.”

”Thank you, Mr. Xu.”

Happy times are always fleeting.

After Xino finished teaching the children nursery rhymes, she prepared to leave with Xu Yun.

Before they left, she wanted to transfer 50,000 yuan to the director’s account, but the director refused.

”Miss Xino, thank you for all your help over the past two years, but we can’t take your money anymore.”

The director smiled. ”Of course, the children and I would be delighted to have you come teach them to sing anytime.”

”???”

Xino didn’t understand why the director would suddenly refuse her money, but she was sure it had something to do with Xu Yun.

After all, while she had been teaching the songs, Xu Yun and the director had been outside talking about something.

Suppressing her confusion, Xino left the shelter with Xu Yun and they drove away.

On the playground, the young intern teacher, Chen Rui, watched the black Bentley coupe and confirmed her suspicions. The young man and woman who visited today were indeed rich kids.

No wonder they were so generous.

Then, she returned to her office and eagerly took out the chocolates Xu Yun had given her, opening the box.

The Louis Vuitton logo was so conspicuous.

Looking at the doll-like chocolates, she looked them up on her phone and was shocked to discover that this particular item was the most expensive one in the Louis Vuitton Store, valued at 3,200 yuan.

She couldn’t resist taking a five-shot selfie series and posting it to her Moments.

”Aren’t these chocolates beautiful? Someone gave them to me.”

A few minutes later, her roommate called.

Her roommate asked in astonishment, ”Chen Rui, where did you get those chocolates?”

”Someone gave them to me.”

”Who gave them to you?”

”You know I’m interning at the orphanage this month, right? I met a really handsome man who was visiting the kids.”

Chen Rui replied, ”He gave a box of these chocolates to every child, and he gave me one too.”

”You’re saying he gave a box of these chocolates to *every* child?”

”Yeah.”

Chen Rui said, ”The director and the kitchen auntie each got a box too.”

”AHHHHHH!”

Over the phone, her roommate, filled with regret, cried out, ”If I had known, I never would have switched with you!”

”Haha, you should have come. Regretting it now, aren’t you?”

”So when is he coming back?”

”I don’t know.”

”No way!”

Her roommate said excitedly, ”I’m heading back to school right now to apply with the professor. I want to intern there with you too!”

”...” Chen Rui was speechless.

...

「On the way back.」

Xino looked at Xu Yun and asked, ”Did you say something to the director? Is that why she wouldn’t take my money?”

”Mhm.”

Xu Yun nodded and admitted, ”I told her that you wouldn’t be donating here anymore.”

”Why?”

Xino asked, confused, ”They won’t be able to get by without my money. If you’re not donating, why won’t you let me?”

”Because I’ve taken over.”

Xu Yun smiled and explained, ”You brought me here because you wanted me to do good deeds with you, right?”

’So that’s what it was.’

Xino pouted, then broke into a happy smile. ”I knew it. How could you be a man with a heart of stone?”

”Bullshit. Don’t think I don’t know what you were just thinking about me.”

”No, I wasn’t!”

Xino flatly denied it. ”The man I like is always the best.”

”I don’t believe you.”

After returning from the shelter and having a meal out, Xu Yun took her home.

A girl who lives with her family has to be careful; she can’t just stay out overnight. Her parents would worry.

As luck would have it, not far from the entrance to the villa community, the two of them were spotted by Xi Wei just as they were hugging goodbye.

Xi Wei’s expression immediately soured.

Xu Yun, however, very naturally let go of Xino, even smiling and giving Xi Wei a nod before departing coolly.

Xi Wei looked at his sister, who was still standing there, reluctant to see Xu Yun go. He asked, ”All your recent troubles, all your endless questions for me... it was all because of him?”

”Watch your tone, brother.”

Xino said with a straight face, ”He’s my boyfriend now. In the future, he’ll be your brother-in-law and Dad’s son-in-law. So from now on, be nicer to him when you see him.”

”!!!” Xi Wei was stunned.

’Wait, they’re already together?’

’All told, how long have they even known each other?’

Xi Wei frowned and asked, ”Does Dad know about this?”

”Yep.”

Xino deliberately said, ”Dad even asked me to invite him over for dinner.”

”...” Xi Wei was speechless.

’I’ve only been gone a few days, and their relationship has already progressed to meeting the parents?’

’Forget it. Since Dad knows about it, I don’t need to worry.’

’Anyway, my sister fears nothing at home, spoiled rotten by Mom and Dad. If she’s dead set on being with this guy, there’s nothing we can do.’

’It’s just... I’m not used to the idea of suddenly having a brother-in-law!’

’Besides, I don’t even know what the guy does for a living, or what his family is like!’

...

「Meanwhile, in Jinyuan District.」

Li Yonghua stared at the white Bentley luxury car before him, swallowing hard. He couldn’t quite believe it.

’Isn’t this Xu Yun’s car?’

He hesitantly pressed the button on the car key in his hand.

BEEP! BEEP!

’Holy shit, it really works! It’s not a fake.’

’Xu Yun really left the car in my care.’

’His mind went blank for a moment!’

’Wait, why would he have someone give me the car key and ask me to watch over it?’

’We’re not on good terms. We’re enemies!’

’Something’s wrong. Something is very wrong!’

’This guy definitely has bad intentions!’

’Is this a setup to mess with me?’

After calming down, Li Yonghua began to analyze how Xu Yun might be planning to screw him over.

’Could it be that the car is already damaged, so he deliberately left it in my care so he could raise hell when he gets back and make me pay for it?’

’Yes, that must be it.’

’I have to inspect it thoroughly. I’ll take pictures of any problems first as evidence.’

Flashlight in hand, Li Yonghua began to circle the car, inspecting it meticulously, afraid he might miss a single spot.

But after a full circle, he found no scratches at all. The car’s paint was completely pristine.

’Nothing? That doesn’t make any sense!’

Li Yonghua stood in front of the car, completely baffled.

’Wait!’ A sudden inspiration struck him.

’He deliberately left the car with me, and then he’ll send someone to scratch it or cause some other problem. That way, he can make trouble for me and complain to the company that I didn’t watch his car properly.’

’And then the company will fire me, stopping me from working here as a security guard!’

”Damn it, what a sinister plot!”

Thinking of this, Li Yonghua went and grabbed a chair, then sat down right next to Xu Yun’s car.

He sneered. ”I’ll just stand guard like this and not let anyone near it to cause trouble. When you get back, Xu Yun, you won’t have any reason to hassle me.”

Gong Meiping finished her cleaning duties and heard that her son had run off to the garage. She came over to take a look and asked curiously, ”What are you doing?”

”Watching the car.”

”Whose car is this? Why do you need to watch it so closely?”

Li Yonghua answered, ”Xu Yun’s.”

”His car?”

Gong Meiping was instantly confused. ”Why are you watching his car for no reason? Are you out of your mind?”

”You think I want to?”

Li Yonghua said angrily, ”It’s that bastard Xu Yun! He’s trying to set me up and find an excuse to get me kicked out. I can’t let his treacherous scheme succeed!”

Then he explained his theory to his mom.

After hearing it, Gong Meiping had a moment of realization and nodded repeatedly. ”I can’t believe he’s so malicious. You’re so smart. Otherwise, we would have fallen right into his trap.”

”Of course.”

Li Yonghua chuckled smugly, then asked in a low voice, ”Mom, how much did you get paid this month?”

”3,200 yuan.”

Gong Meiping cheered up at the mention of her salary and smiled. ”I haven’t even been here a full month, but they paid me for the whole month.

On top of that, some residents occasionally ask me to do some cleaning at their homes, and they give me a few hundred each time. That added up to over 2,000.

So this month, I saved over 5,000 yuan.”

”Haha, I did pretty well too.”

Li Yonghua said proudly, ”My salary this month was 6,500. Some residents also asked me to help them carry things, and I made 1,500 in tips. So in total, I made 8,000 yuan this month.”

”So you’re saying, by staying here to watch Li Jinshu, not only are we not spending a dime, but we’ve also earned over 10,000 yuan combined in one month?”

”That’s right.”

”Hahaha, I never thought something this good could happen.

If your dad calls again and rushes us to come back, just tell him we’re not going back yet. We have to keep an eye on Li Jinshu.”

”Okay.”

Gong Meiping said, ”Son, you have to watch this car carefully. Don’t give Xu Yun any opportunity to complain about you.”

”Mhm, don’t worry, Mom. I won’t even blink!”

”Good, you keep watch then.”

Gong Meiping smiled. ”I’m going to walk around the district and see if any other residents need cleaning done at their homes.”

After his mom left, a bored Li Yonghua took out his phone and started taking selfies in the side mirror.

”What are you looking at? Even if Jesus himself showed up today, I’m still protecting this car!”

--Author’s Note: Over 6,000 characters today. It’s the end of the month, so I’m begging for monthly tickets. Give them to me, or I’ll cry!

If you still don’t give them, I’ll have to let the security guard, Li Yonghua, beat you all up!
