Super Rich by Doing as You Please

On the other end of the line, Yu Xuan froze when she heard a woman’s voice suddenly cut in.

"You’re at another woman’s house right now?"

"No, Yu Xuan, listen to me."

The young man explained as he threw on his clothes, "It’s not what you think, I..."

"Look how frantic you are. Leaving your shorts behind?"

The rich woman beside him deliberately spoke louder. "Sweetie, breaking up with him is the right move. He was never yours to begin with."

The young man spun around and roared, "Shut your mouth!"

"Is that any way to talk to me?"

"It is."

The young man raged, "That’s it, I fucking quit!"

"..."

Back in her apartment, Yu Xuan listened to the two of them arguing on the phone and simply hung up.

’Working overtime?’

’So this was the kind of "overtime" he’d been working all along!’

’He must have had it so rough.’

At this moment, she didn’t actually hate her boyfriend at all.

Instead, the guilt that had been weighing on her heart suddenly felt much lighter.

She hadn’t stayed true to their love, and it seemed her boyfriend hadn’t either.

Six of one, half a dozen of the other!

Yu Xuan gave a self-deprecating laugh. After quickly packing her things, she dragged her suitcase out, took one last look at the small home she had shared with her boyfriend for nearly three years, and turned to leave.

Out on the street alone, she hailed a taxi, only to realize she had nowhere to go.

In this vast city, not a single light was burning for her.

In the end, after some aimless wandering, she found her way back to the J Hotel and took the elevator to the top floor.

Standing outside Xu Yun’s room, she dialed his number.

"Hello, Mr. Xu? Does what you said earlier today still stand?"

From inside the room, Xu Yun replied, "It does."

"Does that include room and board?"

"Of course."

"I’m right outside your door now. Can you let me in?"

Yu Xuan added, "I don’t have a place to stay tonight."

"..." Xu Yun was speechless.

He went downstairs and opened the door to find Yu Xuan standing there, suitcase in tow, just as she’d said.

"Mr. Xu," Yu Xuan said awkwardly.

Although Xu Yun didn’t know what had happened, he still said, "Come in first, we can talk inside."

"Who is it?" Hearing the noise, Chen Xin, who had been typing away in her bedroom, ran out.

When she saw it was Yu Xuan, she asked in confusion, "Housekeeper Yu, what are you doing here? And with luggage?"

"I don’t have a place to stay at the moment."

Yu Xuan answered, "So I came to ask if you could put me up for the night."

"Oh, well you can sleep with me."

"That’s not necessary, I can just sleep on the sofa in the living room."

"It’s no problem. My bed is huge, there’s more than enough room for two people."

Chen Xin added enthusiastically, "We can even stay up and chat tonight."

"Since she’s extending such a kind invitation, you should just stay with her."

Seeing that Xu Yun had also said so, Yu Xuan felt she couldn’t refuse any longer. She nodded in agreement and said politely to Chen Xin, "Then I’ll be troubling you."

"No trouble at all. I’m happy to help."

Chen Xin urged, "It’s getting late. Come on to my room."

"Okay."

As Xu Yun watched Yu Xuan follow Chen Xin to her bedroom, he felt something was off.

This wasn’t like Chen Xin’s personality at all.

She was a woman with serious social anxiety.

’Even though she’s interacted with Yu Xuan a lot these past few days, their relationship couldn’t have gotten so good that she’d be willing to share a bed, could it?’

In fact, his suspicion was correct. There were two reasons why Chen Xin was being so proactive.

First, her relationship with Yu Xuan was better than Xu Yun imagined, and she didn’t dislike her.

Second, she was on guard against both Xu Yun and Yu Xuan.

’Why?’

’She was afraid a certain someone might get some wicked ideas and sneak out in the middle of the night to cause trouble.’

’The swimming pool incident with Sister Liang must not be repeated!’

’Or maybe this Yu Xuan was planning to use the sleepover as an excuse to sneak into a certain someone’s bedroom in the middle of the night and have her way with him while he slept.’

’Now that Yu Xuan was sleeping with her, under her watch, no matter which of them had any funny ideas, they’d have to give up!’

’Hahaha, I’m such a genius.’

Chen Xin couldn’t help but give herself a mental thumbs-up for her cleverness!

That night, as the two women lay in bed, Yu Xuan looked at Chen Xin’s chest, which even she found a bit enviable, and joked, "What do you eat to get a figure like that?"

"I don’t know. They’ve just been bigger than other girls’ since I was little."

Chen Xin said with a hint of annoyance, "I don’t like it at all. I wish they were a bit smaller."

"Well, I wish mine were a little bigger."

Yu Xuan said with a smile, "All men like women with big breasts."

"Who says? I don’t think Xu Yun does."

"Why not?"

Yu Xuan was a little surprised. Just that afternoon in the bathroom, he had told her she’d be even more perfect if hers were a little bigger.

Chen Xin said, "Because if he really liked big-breasted women, why hasn’t he made a move on me?"

"..." Yu Xuan was speechless.

Suddenly, Chen Xin noticed the Jade Bracelet on Yu Xuan’s wrist.

She asked curiously, "Your bracelet is so pretty. How come I’ve never seen you wear it before?"

"I wear it sometimes, and sometimes I don’t."

Yu Xuan, feeling a little guilty, tucked her hand away and changed the subject. "By the way, what exactly is your relationship with Mr. Xu?"

"Um... you could say we’re potential marriage partners."

Chen Xin thought for a moment, then said with a smile, "After all, this whole trip only happened because of his aunt’s matchmaking efforts."

"..." Yu Xuan was speechless.

’No wonder Xu Yun is so well-behaved around Chen Xin.’

’But then, she thought about what she and Xu Yun had gotten up to that afternoon...’

’And now, here she was, sleeping next to his possible future wife. It was more than a little awkward.’
