Super Rich by Doing as You Please

Jiang Peiyao was surprised and at a loss when she suddenly received a voice message from Xu Yun.

In all the time he’d been away, Xu Yun had never taken the initiative to message her; he rarely even replied.

But the other woman had only just left, yet he already knew what happened and had messaged her immediately.

’Is he messaging me to scold me?’

Even Yu Xuan, who was beside her, was a little surprised.

As far as she knew, besides Chen Xin—who was always with the Old Buddha—no other woman could really influence their boss’s feelings.

She never expected this woman, Xino, to hold such an important place in the boss’s heart.

In response to Xu Yun’s query, Jiang Peiyao replied apprehensively, "Yes... but I think I made her unhappy. If you’re upset, I can go apologize to her right now."

"She didn’t give you a hard time, did she?" Xu Yun asked with concern.

"Huh?"

Jiang Peiyao replied instinctively, "No."

"Good, then."

Xu Yun said with a smile, "You don’t have to worry about her. In my heart, you’re all equal.

So you don’t need to feel inferior around her or always give in to her. And don’t worry about making me unhappy."

"Okay, I understand."

As Jiang Peiyao listened to Xu Yun, she was so moved her eyes turned red.

"As for the charity work, you’re doing even better than I imagined."

Xu Yun continued, "Just go all out, and don’t worry about the cost. I’ll have someone transfer another 50 million to you in a bit. After this, I’ll probably be going silent for a while, until my trip is over. I won’t be in contact with any of you."

"Okay, be safe on your journey. I’ll be in Jiangcheng, waiting for you to come back."

After ending the call, Jiang Peiyao felt much better.

She looked at Yu Xuan and said with renewed confidence, "Miss Yu, let’s head to the contractor’s office now."

"Yes, President Jiang."

Elsewhere.

Lin Wanzhou looked at Xu Yun, who was busy with his chat. "You’re surrounded by all these women day in and day out, all of them getting jealous over you. Don’t you get tired of it?"

"It’s a happy kind of tired."

Xu Yun laughed. "A clueless guy like you wouldn’t get it. All you can see is that ’good sister’ of yours who gave you the Peace Pendant."

"Don’t joke about my comrade’s sister, or I’ll really get angry."

As Lin Wanzhou spoke, he poured the ground coffee into the pot of boiling water, and a rich aroma immediately wafted out.

Whether the coffee tasted good or not was another question, but at least the aroma was fantastic.

Once it had brewed, Lin Wanzhou poured a small cup and handed it to Xu Yun. "This single cup is worth four to five thousand yuan," he teased. "Let’s see if you ascend right here on the spot after drinking it."

Xu Yun took the cup, smiled, and took a small sip.

A complex look crossed his face.

Seeing his expression, Lin Wanzhou laughed. "Judging by your face, it’s not good?"

"Maybe I just don’t have the palate for it. This is completely different from the bitter coffee I’m used to. It’s... sour. Like spoiled, day-old yogurt. It’s hard to get down."

Xu Yun frowned and tried another sip, but he really couldn’t stomach it and poured the rest out.

’I wouldn’t drink this even if it cost forty or fifty thousand yuan, let alone four or five thousand.’

’This was really just paying for my own suffering.’

’First it was the red wine, now this... I’m a sucker all over again!’

Lin Wanzhou was clearly enjoying this. He laughed mockingly, "Weren’t you the one who said expensive automatically means good?"

"I really don’t get these rich folks. How could anyone like coffee that tastes like this?"

Xu Yun grumbled, "Fuck, the ten-yuan coffee I used to get from Luckin was better than this."

From start to finish, it never even occurred to him to suspect that Lin Wanzhou might have messed up the brewing process and ruined the coffee.
