Super Rich by Doing as You Please

Because she was so beautiful, passersby couldn’t help but steal glances at her.

A young man driving a luxury German sedan, thinking he was hot stuff with his good looks and a little bit of money, was even about to hit on her.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, Xino gave him a cold look, pointed to Xu Yun’s Aston Martin Valkyrie, and asked, "You know that car you were all just crowding around and taking pictures of? Do you know who it belongs to?"

"Whose is it?"

"It’s my man’s."

Xino shot back, "Do you think you have more money than him? Is that what gave you the courage to come and hit on me?"

The young man was speechless.

Xino offered a "kind" reminder, "You should leave now, before my man comes out. He’s very petty, and I can’t guarantee he won’t do something rash."

The young man was speechless.

When Xu Yun returned from his phone call, he saw the guy turn and flee in terror. He asked curiously, "Did you know that guy? Why’d he leave the second he saw me?"

"I don’t know him. He was just asking for directions."

Xino took his arm and asked, "Should we grab a bite to eat before we go?"

"You’re hungry."

"Mhm."

"Then let’s eat first. After that, we’ll fill up the car."

This supercar was great in every way, except that it was a bit of a gas-guzzler.

’I’ve already had to fill it up several times on this trip!’

「Half an hour later, they were back on the road.」

Xu Yun put on some music and maintained a steady 120, not too fast, not too slow.

Xino was scrolling through her phone.

She suddenly said, "Xu Yun, you’re in the news."

"???" Xu Yun was confused.

"Let me read it to you."

Xino said with a smile, "Shocking! A mysterious tycoon, Mr. Xu, has appeared in Hang City, purchasing the largest garden villa in Lv Yuan Peach Blossom District for 280 million and becoming neighbors with Jack Ma."

Xu Yun was speechless.

"The comments section is even more interesting. Everyone’s guessing who you are, wondering if you’re the mysterious ’Mr. Xu’ from the internet.

Lots of women are calling you their husband, begging you to be their sugar daddy and have your babies.

What’s even crazier is that someone is pretending to be your girlfriend."

Xu Yun laughed. "Just ignore it. It’s all just online banter, people running their mouths."

"No way! This is infuriating. I’m going to post a comment too."

Xino typed in the comment section: "Sorry, ladies, but this Mr. Xu is my husband, and he’s twenty-eight."

Her comment was barely posted before she was flooded with replies and private messages.

Of course, they were all expressing disbelief and doubt.

To shut them up, Xino didn’t waste any time. She pulled the property deed for Xu Yun’s villa out of her bag, snapped a photo, blurred out the personal information, and posted it.

Along with it, she posted various photos she had taken in the yard.

’I just thought it was pretty and took some pictures of the scenery back then. Who knew they’d come in handy now.’

The property deed plus the garden photos—the pictures were the proof.

’Let’s see what they have to say now!’

Xu Yun glanced at what Xino was doing but didn’t interfere.

’As long as she’s happy. It’s boring in the car anyway, so it’s good for her to find something to do for fun!’

’It’s not like I’m the son of some government official, so I’m not afraid of being investigated. It’s not a big deal if my identity gets exposed from flexing my wealth.’

The moment Xino posted the property deed and villa photos, the internet was instantly stunned.

’Wait...’

’We were all just talking. You’re for real?’

No one expected their comments to actually bait out a real tycoon!

The tone in the comments section changed in a flash, with everyone tagging her.

"Sister-in-law, does your big estate need a security guard? I’m built like a brick house, I could kill a tiger with my bare hands."

"My lady, this old servant has had such a hard time finding you! I’m completely lost. Could you send a car to pick me up?"

"Young Miss, I think I could be chained up next to those two big lions at your gate."

"..."

Xino looked at all the teasing comments from the netizens and couldn’t help but laugh.

’These people are really something else!’

Suddenly, someone replied: "Young Miss, we want to see the Young Master’s peerless face!"

With one person leading the charge, everyone else instantly became a copycat.

Her original comment had long since become a hot thread, continuously attracting a crowd of onlookers.

Everyone wants a peek into the world of the rich.

"Alright, I’ll secretly snap a picture for you guys! He’s super handsome!"

Xino picked up her phone, secretly aimed it at Xu Yun in the driver’s seat, and CLICK.

"What are you doing?"

Xu Yun noticed and asked with a smile, "You’re not secretly taking my picture, are you?"

"Hehe, everyone online wants to see you."

Seeing she’d been caught, Xino said guiltily, "But I didn’t get your face, don’t worry."

Xu Yun was speechless.

’Since Xu Yun didn’t object, that must mean he’s okay with it.’

Feeling relieved, Xino posted the photo she had just taken of Xu Yun driving.

The post immediately blew up.

"Wow, you don’t even need to see his face to know he’s a total hunk!"

"This body... it’s making me drool."

"The Young Miss is eating well. I’m so jealous I could cry."

While the female users were focused on Xu Yun’s looks and physique, the male netizens were focused on other things that interested them: his watch and his car.

Someone with a sharp eye who knew their stuff recognized the watch accidentally revealed on Xu Yun’s wrist at a glance.

"HOLY SHIT, he’s wearing a limited edition Richard Mille, the RM 72-01."

Someone asked: "Is it expensive?"

"Around 3 million!"

"Dude above me, the watch is nothing. Can you guess what car he’s driving?"

Another person replied: "Based on the interior, it should be an Aston Martin, but I can’t tell which model."

"That’s the Aston Martin Valkyrie hybrid, a supercar comparable to an F1 race car!"

That person replied, "They only made 25 of these in the whole world. One was shown at the Hang City auto show a few days ago. I can’t believe it belongs to this Young Master."

Someone asked: "How much is it?"

"Around 30 million, I guess."

Everyone: "Terrifying..."

Xino had just wanted to show off how handsome her boyfriend was, but she never expected a casual photo to be dissected for so much information by the netizens, turning it into what looked like an attempt to flaunt wealth.

Seeing the netizens’ comments veer far from her original intention, she got scared and immediately ended the conversation, putting her phone away and deciding to ignore everyone.

Xu Yun laughed. "Why’d you stop arguing with the netizens?"

"I’m done. Everyone’s too intense."

Xino replied, "I’m afraid if I say anything more, they’ll dig up our identities."

"That’s how it is online. The more you say, the more likely you are to get into trouble."

Xu Yun said, "Weren’t there a lot of people flexing their wealth online before? They’d accidentally expose too much information, get doxxed by netizens, and in the end, either their parents or their grandfather would end up in jail.

I don’t really care, but your dad’s position is rather sensitive. You should be more careful when you’re online in the future."

"I never really paid attention to this stuff before, and no one ever told me."

Xino said with lingering fear, "After hearing you say that, I’m not going to post carelessly anymore. I’ll just be a lurker."

The drive from Hang City to Jiangcheng was 724 kilometers, and it took Xu Yun a total of eight hours to arrive.

After all, he had been delayed quite a bit by the "service stops."

Because Xino had called home on the way back, the meal was already prepared when they arrived.

This time, she hadn’t cooked it herself; the housekeeper had.

When Xu Yun and Xino got home, Xi Huai’an and Cheng Yuelan were waiting for them to start dinner.

"I’m so sorry, sir, ma’am."

Xu Yun stepped forward and said apologetically, "I’ve made you wait."

"It’s no problem. We often eat late anyway."

Cheng Yuelan stood up and ushered them in. "Come, sit down, sit down. You must be tired after driving all day."

"I am, a little."

Xu Yun smiled. "But I’m sure I’ll feel better after having a couple of drinks with you, sir."

"You’re just after my good liquor."

Xi Huai’an said, "I was saving that for my daughter’s wedding."

"Dad, Xu Yun’s going to drink it eventually anyway, so it’s the same if he drinks it now. It’s only a matter of time. Don’t be stingy. I’ll go get it for you."

After speaking, she dutifully ran off toward the wine cellar.

Xi Huai’an was speechless.

’A daughter won’t stay with her family forever. They aren’t even married yet, and she’s already acting like she’s part of his.’

"This child..."

Cheng Yuelan smiled and asked Xu Yun, "Did you have fun in Hang City? Why didn’t you stay a few more days?"

"We finished our business, and we’ve seen most of it."

Xu Yun looked at Xi Huai’an and replied meaningfully, "If we didn’t come back soon, I was afraid you might have come looking for me yourself, sir."

"???" Cheng Yuelan was confused.

"AHEM~"

Xi Huai’an gave a tactical cough and changed the subject. "Alright, that’s enough chatting. Let the boy eat first."

"Oh, right."

Cheng Yuelan served Xu Yun some food as she introduced the dishes. "This is braised pork ribs, this is stinky mandarin fish, and this is boneless crucian carp and tofu soup. They’re all home-style dishes. Go on, see how they taste."

"Okay, Auntie."

Just then, Xino came running back with a bottle of aged Maotai and subconsciously called out, "Honey, I got the liquor!"

Xi Huai’an: "???"

Cheng Yuelan: "???"

Xu Yun was speechless.

Hehe~

Xino sat down next to Xu Yun, stuck out her tongue playfully, and said shyly, "Mom, Dad, can you just pretend you didn’t hear that?"

Xi Huai’an & Cheng Yuelan: "..."

Looking at the expressions on the two elders’ faces, Xu Yun felt a wave of inexplicable awkwardness.

’Seriously? This is just like plugging your ears while stealing a bell!’
