Chapter 44: What’s Not to Like About a Sugar Mama?
It wasn’t just Lin Xiaowei who was secretly surprised. Chenyang, standing beside her, was utterly flabbergasted too.
For the past year or so, he had worked himself to the bone just to barely scrape together three or four thousand a month. Meanwhile, these beautiful, wealthy women had daily spending money that amounted to several thousand!
In their thirties, they weren’t that much older than Chenyang.
While Chenyang was still running himself ragged just to put food on the table, they were living in mansions, driving luxury cars, and playing around as they pleased.
They were gorgeous and uninhibited.
And every single one was rich and powerful!
The stark contrast was enough to drive a man mad with envy.
As Chenyang’s gaze swept over these beautiful, wealthy women, he suddenly felt that working hard was pointless.
’Even if I worked harder, what would it get me?’
’Even if I started as a medical intern and slowly ground my way up, how far could I possibly get?’
’If I could just get with one of these gorgeous, wealthy women, I could skip at least twenty years of struggle!’
’Besides, I’d have tons of money to spend every day and a beautiful woman in my arms. Isn’t that way better than working myself to death?’
The thought that had sparked in an instant made his gaze upon these beautiful, wealthy women grow even more feverish.
However, the thought didn’t last long.
’Being a rich woman’s boy toy does sound great.’
’But there’s no such thing as a free lunch.’
’Making your own money is tiring, but you’re free to spend it how you want.’
’But if I really became some rich woman’s boy toy, I’d be no different from an actual plaything.’
Rather than groveling as a kept man, Chenyang much preferred the idea of conquering these beautiful, wealthy women with his own masculine prowess.
’It would be difficult, but that’s part of the fun.’
’If I succeed, great. If I don’t, it’s not like it’ll affect me anyway!’
"This is your Aunt Liu, Liu Yun. I believe you’ve met."
While Chenyang was lost in thought, Qin Fei’Er pointed to the third beautiful woman.
This woman looked to be about thirty-five or thirty-six and was wearing a yellow floral-print dress.
She was tall with a voluptuous figure.
Her features had a touch of exotic beauty.
Her eyes, in particular, looked exactly like Dilraba Dilmurat’s at first glance.
When Lin Xiaowei saw her, her enthusiasm was clearly a notch higher than before. She proactively extended a hand. "Of course we’ve met. Aunt Liu is my superior, after all."
"I’m your superior at the hospital, but here, I’m just your Aunt Liu."
Liu Yun smiled and handed over a red envelope. "Keep up the good work. At home, help Feifei have a big, healthy grandson soon, and at work, strive to reach the next level as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, I hope your blessings come true!"
"Alright, no need to be so formal at home." Qin Fei’Er smiled and gestured to the two beautiful women behind her. "The one with the short hair is Su Qianqian. Besides running a massage parlor, she also has some other, more impressive and mysterious identities. I won’t reveal them today; I’ll let her tell you herself later."
Lin Xiaowei nodded slightly. After taking a long look at Su Qianqian, she said softly, "Hello, Aunt Su."
"Hello, little beauty!"
"This last one shares your surname. Her name is Lin Yun. She’s even more incredible. Not only is she the vice-chairman of the medical association, but she’s also a high-level director at the Medical Insurance Bureau."
"I’m not as impressive as your mother-in-law describes. Just a minor official, that’s all."
"Hello, Aunt Lin."
Amid the pleasantries, Su Qianqian and Lin Yun handed over their red envelopes as well.
They had all discussed it before coming.
The amount in the red envelopes was also a uniform six thousand, six hundred yuan.
In other words, after just one round of introductions, Lin Xiaowei had not only been acknowledged by five "aunts" of considerable status, but she had also pocketed over thirty thousand yuan!
Looking at that thick stack of red envelopes, Chenyang was extremely envious.
’Over thirty thousand yuan.’
’That’s almost a full year’s salary for a medical intern.’
Still, it wasn’t something to be envied.
Lin Xiaowei had obtained all this by sacrificing the happiness of her entire future to marry a good-for-nothing.
If it were Chenyang, he would rather refuse the money than make such a huge sacrifice.
"Alright, the introductions are done and the pleasantries are out of the way. Let’s not overwhelm my daughter-in-law anymore. Let’s hurry up and make the dumplings; we can’t let her waste away from hunger!"
"Come, come. Let’s all get started."
Laughing, the beautiful women gathered around the kitchen island again and started making dumplings.
Having received so many red envelopes, and knowing her future success depended on these very women, Lin Xiaowei joined them as well.
Chenyang, on the other hand, prepared to take the opportunity to slip away.
He also wanted to get to know these beautiful, wealthy women better.
’After all, every one of them is rich and powerful. If I can build a good relationship with them, they could easily solve any trouble I might run into in the future.’
But in the current situation, his status was, all in all, a bit awkward.
’Besides, trying to force my way into a circle like this would be difficult, and I might just end up annoying them.’
’After all, these women all have different jobs, and they certainly don’t all have the same personality. The short-haired one might want to chat and play with me for a while out of curiosity, but the others might not feel the same way.’
At this thought, Chenyang quietly took a step back, preparing to slip back to his room for some peace and quiet.
But to his surprise, just as he reached the sofa, the short-haired woman, Su Qianqian, came after him.
"Hey, little brother. You’re still pitching a tent over there. Sneaking off to your room to go jerk off?"
