Super Rich by Doing as You Please

A single bottle of wine, shared between two people.

Xino wanted to drink too, but she held back in front of her dad and Xu Yun, sticking to juice.

After dinner, Xu Yun and Xi Huai’an went to the study, saying they had something to discuss.

Xino and Cheng Yuelan watched TV in the living room downstairs, though they were really just chatting.

It was a mother-daughter heart-to-heart!

"So, where did you and Xu Yun go for fun in Hang City these past few days?"

Xino replied, "Where can you even go in three days? We just walked around West Lake and Lingyin Temple."

"You went all that way just for fun and only visited those two places? Why not stay a couple more days and really explore Hang City?"

Cheng Yuelan said, "The more time you two spend alone, the easier it is to deepen your relationship. It’s not like you didn’t have a place to stay."

"I know that."

Hearing this, Xino pouted. "But Xu Yun finished his business and had to come back. What could I do?"

’If she could, she would’ve preferred not to return so soon. The longer they stayed in Hang City, the better.’

’That way, Xu Yun would belong only to her.’

’Unlike now. The moment he came back, all those other women would be trying to snatch him away from her!’

’Getting him to spend even two days a week with her was already a blessing!’

But this was something she couldn’t tell her mother and father.

"See? The moment Xu Yun got home and finished dinner, Dad called him into the study."

Xino sighed. "A man’s world isn’t just about love. They care more about their careers. That goes for my dad and my brother."

"There’s nothing to be done about that. If they didn’t make money, how would we have such a good life?"

Cheng Yuelan smiled and tried to comfort her daughter. "So in the future, you have to be understanding of Xu Yun. He’s not the kind of man who can just revolve around his wife.

If one day he accidentally neglects you, or because of social obligations, or even if he gets involved with a woman on the outside, you have to learn to be magnanimous and understanding.

As long as his heart is still at home and he treats you well, that’s all that matters."

"Mom."

Xino asked, "Was Dad like that in the past?"

"Mhm."

Cheng Yuelan nodded. "When your father was young, he was a huge womanizer. Plenty of women were wrapped around his finger. But look at him now. In the end, I’m the only one left."

"That’s because you’re the most beautiful, Mom."

"Beauty isn’t the most important thing. Every woman gets old, but there are new eighteen-year-old girls every year."

Cheng Yuelan replied, "The reason I won in the end is because I was sensible, I could see the bigger picture, I could take good care of his life, and I didn’t cause him trouble."

"..." Xino was speechless.

"Oh, right."

Cheng Yuelan asked curiously, "You said Xu Yun went to Hang City on business. What kind of business? Was it work-related?"

He was about to become her future son-in-law, yet she still had no idea about his family situation or what he actually did for a living.

"It wasn’t work-related!"

Xino said, "He just went there to buy a car. The one parked out front. It cost around 30 million."

"Thirty million?!"

Cheng Yuelan said in astonishment, "He went all that way and spent thirty million just to buy a single car?"

"Mhm."

"No matter how rich you are, you can’t just throw money around like that."

Cheng Yuelan lamented, "This Xu Yun... maybe you can give him a little reminder later. He’s a bit of a big spender."

"It wasn’t just the car."

Xino smiled. "He liked our villa’s garden, so he went and bought a Suzhou-style garden villa of his own."

"What’s he buying a garden for?"

Cheng Yuelan said, "When you two get married, Mom will just give you our garden as a gift."

"He wouldn’t even look twice at your little garden."

Xino retorted, "Mom, do you have any idea how big the estate he bought is?"

"How big?"

Xino boasted to her mom, "It’s over 1,200 square meters, on a plot of land that’s more than an acre, with two huge stone lions at the gate.

Walking in feels just like one of those Prince Mansions you see on TV. It has a front courtyard, a rear courtyard, and even a private lake filled with koi."

"Uh, that must have cost a fortune, right?"

"Mhm. They said it’s the largest estate in the area. The villa next door belongs to the former richest man, Jack Ma."

Xino said, "Xu Yun spent 280 million to buy it."

"How much?!!!"

Cheng Yuelan thought she had misheard and asked again, "He spent 280 million?"

"With taxes and everything, it was close to 300 million. And he paid for it all upfront."

Cheng Yuelan: "..."

’Okay, okay, okay. My previous worries were completely unnecessary.’

’I said he was a big spender for dropping 30 million on a car, but then he went and spent 300 million on a house without even blinking!’

’In other words, on this one trip to Hang City with her daughter, he spent over 300 million!’

’Clearly, this man was not short on cash.’

Their family was considered wealthy in Jiangcheng.

But now, compared to Xu Yun, she suddenly felt like her family was a bit poor!

Cheng Yuelan decided not to ask any more questions. With that kind of spending power, you wouldn’t dare let your son spend like that unless your family had a net worth in the tens or even hundreds of billions.

Thinking of this, she looked at her daughter with a sense of relief.

’Pampered daughters really do have their own kind of luck. Who would have thought she’d find such an amazing boyfriend?’

He was rich, handsome, and on top of that, humble and polite.

He was almost too perfect.

「In the study upstairs.」

Xi Huai’an and Xu Yun sat facing each other. As the junior, Xu Yun prepared the tea.

"Uncle, was there something you wanted to talk to me about?"

"The matter you asked me to handle last time has been wrapped up."

Xi Huai’an said, "After the relevant departments gathered enough evidence of the Qin Family’s illegal activities, they’ve already filed a lawsuit. If all goes as planned, both the father and son will be going to prison!"

"Thank you, Uncle. I’m sorry to have troubled you."

"It’s nothing. It was no trouble at all."

Xi Huai’an smiled. "It’s a good thing to remove a cancer from society. And for some of them, it even counts as a professional achievement."
