Super Rich by Doing as You Please

Bring a plus-one, for one day and one night.

And it’s on an island.

’Hold on, why does this car club meeting feel so... shady?’

Xu Yun couldn’t help but think of a certain term—’orgy.’

’Do all rich people mess around like this?’

’So depraved.’

’I have to go see this kind of thing for myself, experience it firsthand, so I can properly criticize it when I get back.’

But that raised a question: who should I take with me?

’I have three women around me right now!’

Su Mu, Li Jinshu, and Ning Qian... it didn’t seem right to take any of them.

Xu Yun looked at Yu Xuan, who was beside him.

"Mr. Xu, is there something you need me to do?"

"It’s nothing important."

Xu Yun said, "The day after tomorrow, I’m going to a car club meeting. You’ll come with me. It’s on an island, and we might stay overnight, so prepare in advance."

"Okay, I understand," Yu Xuan replied.

’She had already considered some of the things that might happen.’

’One man, one woman, on an island, for a night.’

She then asked, "Mr. Xu, the food is ready. Should we eat now?"

"Are the two women next door back yet?"

"I think so."

"Go and get them for me. Tell them to come over and eat."

Xu Yun added, "From now on, when you cook, just make enough for all of us."

"Understood, Mr. Xu."

Soon, Su Mu and Li Jinshu came over, and they all ate together.

The table in Xu Yun’s home was a long, rectangular one.

Xu Yun sat at the head of the table, with Su Mu and Li Jinshu on one side, and Yu Xuan sitting alone on the other.

Everyone’s respective status was clear at a glance.

During the meal, Su Mu brought up the investment, and only then did Li Jinshu and Yu Xuan learn that they had secretly invested five million in a short video.

It would probably be visible on all the major short video platforms in a few days.

Xu Yun just grunted in acknowledgment, not showing much of a reaction.

Not to be outdone, Li Jinshu took the opportunity to talk about the progress of the office renovations.

If all went well, it would be finished in another week. Then they could move in, start hiring employees, and launch the business.

Currently, the company only had three people.

There was Xu Yun, the hands-off boss; Su Mu, the actual manager; and Ning Qian, the receptionist. It seemed a bit sparse.

Su Mu glanced at Yu Xuan and said casually, "Xu Yun, why don’t we bring Yu Xuan into the company too? The title ’personal housekeeper’ isn’t great. How about we change her position to your personal secretary?

Her salary can also be paid from the company account in the future. We can list it as an expense, and maybe even use it for tax deductions later on."

"Sounds good."

Xu Yun agreed. "You can handle it. I don’t really care either way."

"Then what about her salary?"

"Fifty thousand."

"What? Fifty thousand?"

Li Jinshu was shocked when she heard this. "That high?"

’I’ve been working for five or six years, and my salary is only a little over twenty thousand!’

’And now, at Xu Yun’s new company, the receptionist makes twenty thousand a month, and a secretary gets fifty thousand right off the bat.’

"Xu Yun, maybe I should quit my job and come work for your company."

Li Jinshu said enviously. "You’re not running a company, you’re running a charity."

"Sure."

Xu Yun asked with a smile, "So what would you do at my company?"

"I..."

Li Jinshu thought about her profession and was suddenly speechless. She really didn’t know what she would do.

’I can’t just be a janitor, can I?’

Seeing her dejected look, Xu Yun said, "Just discuss it with Su Mu. I don’t manage the company; she calls all the shots. As long as you can convince her to hire you, your salary will be up to her too."

Su Mu was left speechless.

’Just like that, he’d tossed the problem right into her lap!’

When Yu Xuan heard that her salary would be fifty thousand a month, her heart shamelessly began to race.

’What did fifty thousand a month even mean?’

’That was six hundred thousand a year!’

Her previous salary at the hotel had only been around fifteen thousand. Coming to work for Xu Yun, even if it were doubled, she thought it would be thirty thousand at most.

That was already a very high salary.

But she never imagined he would just give her fifty thousand a month straight away.

It had far exceeded her expectations.

Moved, Yu Xuan immediately expressed her gratitude to President Xu.

"President Xu, thank you. I will definitely do my job well and make sure you’re satisfied."

"I was raised on simple food. I’m easy to take care of and don’t have many strange habits, so don’t feel any pressure."

Xu Yun reassured her, "As long as you stick with me, I won’t treat you poorly."

"I understand."

After dinner, Yu Xuan went to clean up the kitchen and wash the dishes, while Su Mu and Li Jinshu lounged around in Xu Yun’s apartment, watching TV.

Xu Yun didn’t want to watch some melodramatic soap opera, so he started scrolling through his WeChat Moments on his phone.

He saw a new post from Ning Qian.

[Thanks to a certain someone, I’m now a car owner too, hehe.]

It was accompanied by a glamorous photo of her in the car.

Xu Yun looked at the picture. He had to admit, she really did look like a rich young lady now.

"Pretty, isn’t she?"

Li Jinshu had snuck up beside him at some point and said with a laugh, "I took that picture for her. A textbook ’pale, rich, and beautiful’ girl."

"Yeah, she’s quite pretty."

Xu Yun said casually, then locked his screen and turned to look at her. "Peeking at other people’s phones is not a good habit."

"Fine, I won’t look. It’s not like I was trying to," Li Jinshu pouted, then returned to her spot and went back to watching TV.

Just then, Su Mu called him out to the balcony. "Xu Yun, I need to talk to you about something," she said.

"What is it?"

"My family has been pressuring me to go on a blind date recently."

Su Mu explained, "They’ve already arranged everything this time. I couldn’t get out of it, so I have to at least meet him."

"Oh."

"What do you mean, ’Oh’?"

Su Mu asked, "I’m going on a blind date, and that’s your reaction? Aren’t you jealous?"

"You’re just going on a blind date, not sleeping with the guy."

Xu Yun laughed. "I’m not that petty. Go ahead, don’t worry about it. You don’t need to specifically tell me."

"Well, are you busy the day after tomorrow? Come with me, pretend to be my boyfriend, and we can get rid of him right away."

"The day after tomorrow?"

Xu Yun paused, then replied, "Bad timing. I actually have something to do the day after tomorrow, so I can’t make it."

’Compared to a small matter like ruining a blind date, an overnight trip to a remote island was far more enticing.’

"Fine, don’t go then."

Su Mu shot him a dissatisfied glare. "You’re the one who refused to go. If the other guy is more handsome than you, I’ll definitely cheat on you."

Xu Yun was speechless.

’This again? As if I’d be scared by that!’

To placate Su Mu, Xu Yun said, "How about this? Bring Jinshu with you on the day of your blind date and have her sabotage it."

"I’m your woman, not Jinshu’s!"

Su Mu said angrily, then turned and left.

"Jinshu, let’s go. We’re heading back."

Li Jinshu looked at the slightly angry Su Mu, then glanced back at Xu Yun and whispered, "What did you do to piss her off just now?"

"I don’t know."

Xu Yun spread his hands innocently. "Maybe her aunt is coming to visit in a few days."

...

Hearing this, Li Jinshu quietly reassured him, "Don’t worry, I’ll handle it for you."

’Her man and her best friend couldn’t be fighting. They had to get along harmoniously.’

’It was just like last time when she had upset Xu Yun, and Su Mu had the same mindset, helping her smooth things over with him.’

When Yu Xuan came out after cleaning the kitchen, she saw Xu Yun was alone and asked, "President Xu, where are Miss Su and Miss Li?"

"They went back."

Xu Yun smiled. "You should take a break too. While you’re at it, give me a head massage."

"Okay."

Xu Yun lay on the sofa with his head resting on Yu Xuan’s lap, closing his eyes and enjoying her massage.

It was very comfortable.

Before he knew it, he had fallen asleep.

Watching the sleeping Xu Yun, Yu Xuan stopped what she was doing and looked down, carefully studying every detail of his face.

She could even see the fine hair on his skin clearly.

This was the first time she had observed him from such a close distance. She hadn’t even looked at him this way the last time they slept together; she had been more passively providing a service.

His wealth was secondary; he was also genuinely handsome.

To be honest, a man like him was definitely the dream partner for most women.

She had fantasized about it when she was younger, but the realities of life over the years had forced her to face the truth.

Rich and handsome men weren’t for ordinary women like her. Their partners were usually from similarly well-matched backgrounds.

Back in school, her teachers always said that social classes didn’t exist.

But in reality, class was always there, permeating every aspect of life.

But in any case, she was lucky to have met a boss who seemed pretty decent.

He was rich, but he didn’t seem like a bad person.

’He isn’t my boyfriend, but I can pretend he is, just for a little while.’

’In that case, some things wouldn’t be so hard to accept.’

When Xu Yun woke up, he suddenly opened his eyes and saw Yu Xuan looking down at him. He smiled. "Captivated by your boss’s handsome face? Want to steal a kiss?"

"No." Yu Xuan immediately looked up, a little embarrassed.

Xu Yun got up and sat.

"How long was I asleep?"

"Two hours."

Yu Xuan replied, "It’s already past eleven at night."

"It’s getting late. You should go to bed too. Don’t worry about me."

"I don’t need to."

Yu Xuan shook her head. "I already sent a message to Miss Su, telling her I’m staying here tonight."

"Uh."

Xu Yun asked curiously, "She didn’t say anything?"

"No, she just said she understood."

"Alright then."

Xu Yun said, "You can sleep in the third bedroom on the left later."

"Do I not need to accompany you?" Yu Xuan asked.

Xu Yun smiled and asked back, "Well, do you want to right now?"

...

"I’m not the type to force people to do things they don’t want to."

Xu Yun said, "Go get some sleep. The room has its own bathroom. I’m not sleepy yet, so I’ll play on my phone for a bit before bed."

"Okay."

With a complicated expression, Yu Xuan stood up. "Goodnight, Boss."

"Goodnight."

After Yu Xuan left, Xu Yun was alone in the living room. Bored, he started scrolling through Douyin.

Suddenly, he received a message from Li Jinshu.

[Jinshu: Are you up to no good?]

Xu Yun replied with a smile.

[Oh? How did you know I was watching porn.]

[Jinshu: Gross. Stop watching...]

[Jinshu: If you really want to, I can come over and keep you company.]

Xu Yun listened to the sound of the shower running in the other room and refused.

[Yu Xuan’s here. It’s not convenient.]

[Jinshu: Alright then. Goodnight.]

After their chat, Xu Yun went back to scrolling on his phone. Maybe the algorithm was watching him, because it kept pushing busty women and suggestive videos his way.

"Fuck, are they even trying to let a guy sleep?"

Just as Xu Yun was heading back to his room to sleep, he pushed open the door and was surprised to find that Yu Xuan had come into his bedroom at some point.

She had just finished showering. Her hair was still a little damp, and she carried a faint, pleasant scent.

Wrapped in a silky bath towel, she slowly walked up to Xu Yun.

Xu Yun looked at her: "???"

"Boss, I’m willing to serve you!"

"You’re the one who said it."

Since she was being so proactive, Xu Yun didn’t waste any more words. He scooped her up and tossed her onto the bed.

’Well, looks like it’s going to be another sleepless night.’
