Super Rich by Doing as You Please

On the way, Xu Yun asked again for confirmation, "Old Lin, are you sure there won’t be any trouble from that?"

"It’s fine."

Lin Wanzhou said, "I’m the one who handled it. Even if trouble comes, they’ll come looking for me. It has nothing to do with you."

"If something does happen, I won’t leave you hanging."

Xu Yun said, "If there’s one thing I have, it’s money. No matter the cost, I’ll hire the best lawyers to help you."

"There’s no need for that. You just need to promise me one thing: if something really happens to me, you’ll help take care of my comrades’ families."

"Okay."

Just then, a message came in from Ruan Qingnian.

"Brother Xu, it’s all taken care of. No issues."

After reading it, Xu Yun smiled at Lin Wanzhou. "There you go. It’s all settled."

He then picked up his phone and immediately transferred five million to Ruan Qingnian!

This covered the payment for his help, as well as all the expenses Ruan Qingnian had covered for him since he’d arrived in Macau.

"Thanks for your hard work. You’re welcome to visit the Mainland anytime."

This time, Xu Yun meant it.

In the lounge of the golf club, Fu Baoying watched Ruan Guohua return and asked with a probing smile, "President Ruan, what happened? Was there a troublesome matter? Do you need my help?"

"No need. I’ve already handled it."

Ruan Guohua replied with a smile, "That kid of mine... he’s always getting into trouble outside. He’s such a headache."

"Young people like to have their fun."

"President Fu, you’re only a few years older than my son, yet you’re already the general manager of the racetrack. Your future prospects are boundless."

"I only look glamorous on the surface."

Fu Baoying said self-deprecatingly, "In reality, I’m just a glorified employee. It’s all thanks to the board’s trust. If I ever do something to displease them, they’ll kick me out in a heartbeat."

"Well, it’s getting late."

Ruan Guohua stood up and said, "President Fu, I’m going to say my goodbyes to the other executives and then head out."

"You’re not staying for dinner?"

"I think I’ll skip it."

’I should lay low for now,’ Ruan Guohua suddenly realized. ’No need to push my way in and risk being forced to pick a side prematurely.’

More importantly, he wanted to go home and ask his son for the details of what had happened. Why did a simple gambling trip suddenly turn into a brawl?

That evening, after the dinner party concluded, Fu Baoying met with her secretary again and heard about what had happened with Ruan Guohua’s son.

Of course, the story also involved Xu Yun.

It turned out they had gone to a Macau casino the day before, but strangely enough, they didn’t gamble. After a quick walk through the casino, they went club-hopping.

The two of them ended up taking a large group of women back to their hotel for an all-night pool party.

Then, as they were leaving the casino today, they were surrounded by a group of thugs trying to extort money from them.

But the quiet man with Mr. Xu took care of all of them, one slash per person. Young Master Ruan was left behind to handle the aftermath, while Mr. Xu and his bodyguard left first.

"Did anyone die?" Fu Baoying asked in surprise.

"No, not at all."

Secretary Li explained, "There were six of them in total. Each one was cut once on their torso, hand, or leg. The strikes were very precise.

"Aside from being incapacitated by the pain, their injuries weren’t serious. They’ve all been bandaged up at the hospital and are currently receiving treatment."

"He’s that skilled?"

"President Fu, actually, back at the racetrack, I suspected he wasn’t an ordinary person."

Secretary Li hesitated for a moment before saying, "From the way he walks and his overall bearing, he seems like someone from the military."

"And you think...?"

Secretary Li speculated, "His identity... could he be a ’third-generation’ heir?"

Fu Baoying was silent.

If that were true, then he was a genuine Overseas Dragon!

She asked, "So where are they now? Did they return to Hong Kong Island?"

"No, they flew directly to Shenzhen."

’So he’s a coward?’

Fu Baoying murmured to herself, ’That doesn’t seem like his style.’

"President Fu, should I continue investigating?"

"Yes."

Fu Baoying ordered, "Go over all the details of his time on Hong Kong Island and in Macau again. Find out who he met with and what he did."

"Understood, President Fu."

After her secretary left, Fu Baoying glanced again at the summary of Xu Yun’s activities in Macau.

A "69, 79" show? An "international friends exchange competition"? A high-end club and spa?

A pool party?

’He went to Macau, didn’t gamble, and spent the whole time chasing women?’

’Was this all just an act for our benefit?’

’Or is he really just that into women?’

Fu Baoying picked up her phone, hesitated, then tapped on Xu Yun’s profile and sent him a message.

"President Xu, are you free tonight? We could have dinner. I can come to you."

She was very confident in her looks and figure.

Two minutes later, Xu Yun replied.

"President Fu, that’s not how a honey trap works. At the very least, you need to send a picture of your chest first. You know, to get me interested."

Fu Baoying: "???"

"If you don’t have the chest for it, that’s fine. I have a thing for long legs too. How about you put on some black nylons and send me a pic?"

Reading Xu Yun’s vulgar messages, Fu Baoying flushed with shame and anger.

’He’s just a shameless scoundrel!’

Suddenly, another message from Xu Yun arrived.

"President Fu, don’t you just want to know how I won those two races? It’s not that big of a deal. I can tell you the reason."

Fu Baoying’s expression tightened. "Why?"

"All secrets come at a price. Are you willing to pay it?"

’I knew it wouldn’t be that simple,’ she thought.

Fu Baoying frowned. "Fine. What do you want in exchange?"

「In the presidential suite of the Four Seasons Hotel in Shenzhen.」

Xu Yun soaked comfortably in the bathtub, a faint smile playing on his lips as he looked at his phone and began to type.

"Just send me a selfie like this one." He attached an image.

Fu Baoying: "???"

"If you’re not willing, then forget it. Goodbye."

In a luxurious villa on Hong Kong Island, Fu Baoying looked at his demand, clicked on the photo he’d sent, and for the first time, felt a profound sense of shame.

"Shameless... Disgusting... Utterly shameless."

At that moment, she was no longer the high and mighty, coolly rational career woman, but simply a normal woman!

Faced with Xu Yun’s demand, her first instinct was to refuse outright.

But after her outburst, the thought of the answer she so desperately wanted made her hesitate, her mind in turmoil.

Seeing that she hadn’t replied, Xu Yun pursed his lips.

’I was just bored and messing with her,’ he thought. ’I didn’t actually expect her to agree to such an absurd request.’

A message from Chen Xin, however, was something he couldn’t ignore.

It was the first time she had messaged him since he’d left on his trip.

"Xu Yun, are you asleep?"

Xu Yun: "Nope. You? Still writing?"

"Yeah, I just posted my update."

Xu Yun: "Let’s video chat. I’m tired of typing."

"Oh."

A moment later, a video call from Chen Xin came through.

Xu Yun accepted.

Instantly, Chen Xin’s face appeared on the screen.

She was lying on her stomach on the bed, with the camera pointed right at her. The view down her loose pajamas revealed an impressive, snow-white bust that was rather dazzling.

Honestly, only someone like Zhang Yuqi could compare.

Chen Xin saw Xu Yun too. Noticing he was bare-chested and soaking in water, she blushed and whispered, "Oh, you’re in the bath?"

"Yeah. Just about to finish up and go to sleep."

Xu Yun angled the camera a little higher. After all, he wasn’t taking a bubble bath, and a quick glance was all it would take to see the... scenery below the waterline.

"I don’t really have anything important to say."

Chen Xin smiled. "I just wanted to tell you that I received the fan you mailed me. It’s beautiful. I love it."

"I’m glad you like it. I made it myself, you know. It even has your name on it—it’s one of a kind."

"Mhm, I saw that."

Chen Xin said happily, "Thank you."

"Then give me a kiss. If you do, I’ll mail you more nice things whenever I find them on my travels."

"But we’re on a video call."

Chen Xin giggled. "Even if I wanted to kiss you, I couldn’t reach."

"Then just save them up for me. You can give them all to me when I get back."

After saying that, Xu Yun asked, "How’s my mom been?"

"Auntie is doing great. She exercises every morning, goes to the teahouse to play mahjong after lunch, and in the evenings, she takes me for a walk along the river."

Chen Xin replied, "She says that sitting and writing all day is unhealthy, so I have to get out and exercise every day."

"My mom probably treats you better than she treats her own son now."

Xu Yun said, feigning jealousy, "I’ve been gone for days, and she hasn’t sent me a single message to see how I’m doing."

"That’s not true! She talks about you with me every day."

Chen Xin added, "She’s even told me lots and lots of stories about when you were a kid."

While Xu Yun and Chen Xin were chatting...

In a villa in Jiangcheng.

Xino looked pitifully at her older brother. "Brother, I even sent him a threatening message, but he’s still ignoring me!"

"A threat?"

Xi Wei asked, confused, "How did you threaten him?"

"I told him if he keeps ignoring me, I’ll break my other hand. That’ll make his heart ache for me."

Xi Wei was speechless.

Xino looked down at her left hand. "Brother, it’s been three days. Do you think I should break it now and send him a picture?

"Otherwise, it’ll look like I don’t keep my word, and I’ll lose all my credibility with him."

"Dad! Mom!"

Xi Wei stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly yelled downstairs, "I strongly suggest we hire someone to watch my sister 24/7! She’s lost her mind!"

Xino froze, looking utterly mortified.
