Super Rich by Doing as You Please

Half an hour later, the service phone in Xu Yun’s room began to ring.

It was a direct line to the hotel’s front desk.

"Hello, Mr. Xu."

Over the phone, a hotel staff member asked, "There’s a Miss Wanqing downstairs looking for you. Should we let her up?"

The room Xu Yun was staying in had a private elevator.

Therefore, any outside visitors needed a key card to come up.

Or, the hotel would only grant access after receiving the guest’s permission.

This was to protect the guest’s privacy and ensure they weren’t disturbed.

"She’s my guest. Let her come up," Xu Yun replied.

"Of course, Mr. Xu."

A moment later, the elevator doors opened, and Wanqing stepped out wearing a cream-colored slip dress.

She entered the room, saw Xu Yun sitting before the floor-to-ceiling windows, and walked over, calling out, "President Xu."

"You’re here."

Xu Yun turned his head, smiled, and poured red wine into a glass he had prepared earlier. "Have a seat. Let’s have a drink."

"Okay."

Wanqing sat down beside Xu Yun. Looking out at the night view, she said with a smile, "So, President Xu, you’re staying up this late just to call me over to look at the view and drink red wine?"

"Not exactly."

Xu Yun said, "After all, I don’t come here often. The nights over Victoria Harbor... each one you see is one less you’ll get to see."

"You’re leaving, President Xu?"

"Yeah."

Xu Yun nodded. "I plan to leave after one more day."

"If you like it here, why not stay a few more days?"

Wanqing hesitated for a moment before offering, "I can keep you company. I’ll head to the Mainland after you’ve left."

"I still have a long trip ahead of me and many places to go. I can’t stay in one place for too long."

Xu Yun turned and smiled. "Besides, if I’m away for too long, the women back home will miss me."

"You have a wife, President Xu?"

"No wife, but plenty of women."

Xu Yun didn’t shy away from the topic. "I’m the type who falls for every woman I meet. Does that make me a scumbag?"

"..."

Wanqing wasn’t surprised by his answer at all. What rich man didn’t have a main partner at home and lovers on the side?

"That depends on what the women think."

Wanqing replied, "As long as the women you’re with don’t feel wronged and can accept it, then I’d say no."

"Now that you put it that way, I guess they don’t feel wronged."

Xu Yun took a sip of wine. "After all, I’ve always been very generous and good to my women. I never skimp on money."

"I can tell."

Wanqing smiled. "You’re different from a lot of rich heirs. You’re honest, not pretentious. You respect people, and more importantly, you keep your promises."

"Are you hinting that I haven’t fulfilled my promise to you yet?"

As he said this, Xu Yun took out his phone, sent a phone number to her WeChat, and said, "When you get to Jiangcheng, call this woman. Go to her film company and tell her I sent you."

"Thank you, President Xu."

To be honest, before she left this afternoon, Xu Yun hadn’t given her any contact information. She had felt uneasy, wondering if he was just stringing her along.

Or perhaps, he had simply forgotten.

"Feeling more at ease now?"

Xu Yun put down his phone and smiled. "Calling you here on short notice tonight, asking you to chat and drink with me, that’s a service beyond what we agreed upon. You could have refused."

"Not at all. I’m very happy to chat with you, President Xu, even without all this."

Xu Yun teased, "Don’t tell me you’ve fallen for me because I’m handsome and have good stamina?"

"President Xu is surrounded by beautiful women. It would never be my turn to fall for you."

Wanqing reached up to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear and said with a self-deprecating smile, "Besides, even if I did like you, President Xu, you wouldn’t necessarily be interested in me."

"If I didn’t like you, I wouldn’t have called you over."

Xu Yun finished, then added, "At least, right here and now, I like you."

"I believe you."

Wanqing looked at the nearly empty bottle of red wine and proactively asked, "President Xu, it’s getting late. Why don’t we continue our chat in bed? It’s easier to fall asleep after you’ve... burned off some energy."

Now that the preamble was over, it was time to move on to the next item on the agenda.

"Alright."

Xu Yun hadn’t expected her to be so forward. He stood up and walked over, preparing to carry her to the bedroom.

But suddenly, the service phone in the room rang again.

"Hello, Mr. Xu. I’m sorry to disturb you."

The hotel staff member said apologetically, "It’s just that there’s another lady downstairs who says she wants to come up and see you."

"Who?"

"She said her name is Michelle."

’Michelle?’ Xu Yun paused, confused. ’What’s she doing here? Well, she’s here now, so I might as well let her up.’

"Let her up."

"Of course, Mr. Xu."

At the side, Wanqing also froze for a moment when she heard Michelle’s name.

’So it’s not just me again this time.’

But immediately after, she noticed Xu Yun giving her a strange look.

She asked, puzzled, "President Xu, what is it?"

"Did you call Michelle over?"

"Huh? No, I didn’t."

Wanqing asked in surprise, "Didn’t you call her?"

"I didn’t either." Xu Yun shook his head.

He had thought Wanqing was being adventurous, figuring one person wasn’t enough fun and had called her best friend over too.

Wanqing: "..."

Two minutes later, Michelle appeared in Xu Yun’s room. She wore a choker, a sexy black tube top and matching black miniskirt, with a light gray jacket over it.

She saw Wanqing already in the room and spaced out for a moment, involuntarily recalling the events of last night.

’No way, is it happening again tonight?’

Xu Yun looked at her and asked, confused, "What are you doing here?"

"Uhm..."

Michelle glanced at her best friend and replied awkwardly, "Young Master Ruan called and told me to come over tonight. I thought... I didn’t expect Wanqing to be here too."
