Everyday Romance After Becoming a Billionaire

He didn’t dare perform any more magic tricks. If he kept going, he might just conjure a fetus inside each of them.

After another round of playful roughhousing, Su Ran knew these four women all too well. Demure as maidens one second, but a pack of wild dogs the next.

If you wanted to play coy, they would act more prudish than a schoolgirl.

And if you wanted to be wild, they’d be more shameless than the most hardcore fangirl.

Of course, they only showed this lively, girlish side of their nature to Su Ran. To outsiders, they always maintained a perfect, goddess-like image.

But don’t get the wrong idea; they weren’t easy women. After spending so much time together, it wasn’t like they had just casually given their first time to Su Ran.

Today was the last day of the old year. They planned to wait for Su Ran in Shanghai for a small get-together, and then tomorrow, they would each go their separate ways and head home to their families.

It was actually quite touching.

With five minutes left until the New Year, the five of them stood by the window, swirling their wine glasses and looking out at the Oriental Pearl Tower.

Aina: "This is my first time spending New Year’s Eve with a man. You’re pretty lucky, Su Ran."

Su Ran: "Is your dad not a man?"

Aina: "I swear to God, I’m going to kill you."

Su Ran chuckled and glanced sideways at the four beautiful girls, admiring their stunning profiles. He said from the heart, "This is my first time spending New Year’s Eve with four beautiful girls, too. I feel very lucky. This toast is to the four of you. May you grow even more beautiful, and may everything go smoothly for you in the new year."

Aina: "Tch. Only the three of us are still girls. You’ve already turned Liu Jinyu into a woman."

Su Ran choked, nearly spraying a mouthful of wine in Aina’s face.

Liu Jinyu: "..."

Xie Yiren: "Aina, you sound so envious. How about I have Su Ran..."

Su Ran: ???

’What the hell? Am I just a tool to them?’

Aina: "I was just talking! Why are you getting so excited? No way, I want to stay a girl."

"Stop, stop, stop..." Su Ran cut in. "This conversation is getting way off track. Let’s reel it back. It’s almost the New Year, so make a wish. It will definitely come true next year."

The four girls closed their eyes and earnestly made their wishes.

Su Ran hesitated for a moment, then activated ’I Know Women’s Hearts’ to eavesdrop on their New Year’s wishes, hoping he could help them come true in the new year.

’DING! I Know Women’s Hearts is now listening to Liu Jinyu’s innermost thoughts.’

[My biggest New Year’s wish, as Liu Jinyu, is for this little brat beside me to love me just as much as he does now. If he has a change of heart and dares to dump me, I’ll murder him.]

’Sure enough, all women are the same. Once they have you, they’ll spoil you rotten. If they can’t have you, they’ll destroy you.’

Su Ran: ...

’Could she think a little bigger?’

’Like asking for a Ferrari, or to travel the world, or something?’

’Her New Year’s wish is just... me?’

’Once a woman falls in love, her world really does become tiny.’

Su Ran looked at Aina, who was muttering under her breath, and activated ’I Know Women’s Hearts’ again. He hoped she was thinking a little bigger.

[My New Year’s wish, as Aina Dilmurat, is for our group of five’s incredible friendship to last forever.]

’That’s it?’

’She’s thinking even smaller than Liu Jinyu.’

’Still, it showed that the normally carefree Aina really valued their group.’

Su Ran looked at Xie Yiren, hoping this one wouldn’t disappoint him. He activated ’I Know Women’s Hearts’ to listen to her thoughts.

[My greatest New Year’s wish, as Xie Yiren, is for my people to escape poverty and become prosperous under my leadership.]

’Her people? What people?’

Xie Yiren bore the Phoenix Totem, so Su Ran had already guessed her status within her tribe was anything but ordinary.

’Now *this* was a wish with a grand scope, just like a chieftain’s hope for her people.’

Su Ran didn’t dwell on it. He’d find out tomorrow when he went to her hometown anyway.

Last was Xiao Wanqing.

’DING! I Know Women’s Hearts has begun listening to Xiao Wanqing’s innermost thoughts.’

Xiao Wanqing had many thoughts and many wishes for the new year. But when the moment came, a thousand words converged into a single, simple blessing—’I hope Su Ran is happy.’

When Su Ran heard this wish, he was filled with a mix of complicated feelings.

After making her wish, Xiao Wanqing slowly opened her eyes, a faint smile on her face.

Aina: "Wanqing, you looked so earnest. What did you wish for?"

Xiao Wanqing: "My wish for the new year is to become the greatest dancer! Yay~"

’Xiao Wanqing was the leader of the besties, after all. She really didn’t want to mess up their dynamic. As for those few days in Shanghai, she probably just considered it a stolen moment of bliss.’

Aina: "Su Ran, what about your New Year’s wish?"

Su Ran shook his head. "I don’t have a New Year’s wish."

Aina: "Everyone has a New Year’s wish. How could you not have one?"

Xie Yiren poked Aina on the forehead and retorted, "Are you an idiot? Does Su Ran even need to make a wish? The guy’s so rich, what wish could he have that he can’t grant himself?"

Aina: "What’s so great about being rich? You think money can grant every wish? He can’t buy me, no matter how much money he has."

Su Ran: "Three hundred million."

PLOP~

Aina played right along, immediately dropping to the floor to hug Su Ran’s leg and holding out her bank card. "Young Master Su, send the money. I’m all yours from now on."

The other girls scoffed in unison.

Everyone looked on in contempt at this walking double standard.

Just then,

BZZ BZZ BZZ...

Xiao Wanqing’s phone began to vibrate in her jeans. Su Ran glanced over and immediately burst out cackling.

Xiao Wanqing understood in a second. "Hey! What are you thinking, you perv? I’m not that kind of girl."

She charged over, pushed Su Ran down onto the sofa, and straddled him, swatting him a few times. She didn’t get off, simply pointing a finger at him in warning before finally answering the call. It was from Mrs. Xiao.

Xiao Wanqing said with a radiant smile, "Mom, Happy New Year! I miss you so much! When are you coming back?" When she saw Su Ran trying to flip her off, Xiao Wanqing shot him a furious glare and slammed her hips down hard. HISSS... Su Ran immediately went still.
