Super Rich by Doing as You Please

After seeing his friend off, Xi Huai’an returned home.

He looked at Xu Yun and said with a smile, ”I didn’t expect you to agree on the spot. I thought you’d at least need a few days to think it over.”

”If it were anyone else, I certainly would have considered it.”

Xu Yun smiled and replied, ”But since you’re the one who arranged this, I couldn’t let you lose face.”

”Even though I know you’re full of it, kid, I’m still happy to hear you say that.”

Xi Huai’an explained, ”Although you spent one billion to take over an unfinished project, which seems like a bad deal right now, you won’t lose out in the long run.

Based on my understanding of him, with your generosity and boldness, he definitely won’t rip you off. The land he gives you in exchange will probably be the best he has.

Also, by helping the government solve a major problem like this, they’ll owe you a favor.

In the future, when you have to deal with them for other matters, things will go much more smoothly.

At the very least, they won’t give you a hard time.

Sometimes, it might even save your life!”

”One billion?”

Xu Yun hadn’t been listening to the last part. Instead, he asked, ”Wasn’t it two billion?”

”Two billion???!?!”

Xi Huai’an was stunned for a moment, then asked, ”He told you two billion?”

”Yeah, two billion!”

”He told me one billion when he came over!”

Hearing this, Xi Huai’an immediately got anxious. ”Wait, you agreed to two billion?”

”I agreed.”

”Damn it~”

Xi Huai’an couldn’t help but curse, then said angrily, ”No wonder he looked so happy just now.”

”Dad, Xu Yun, what are you two talking about?”

Xino, who was standing to the side, asked in confusion, ”What’s all this about one billion, two billion?”

”It’s nothing much.”

Xu Yun spread his hands and said with feigned helplessness, ”Just that your dad invited me over for tea, then had me spend two billion to take over an unfinished project. You know, building houses for the people for free, doing a good deed.”

”Dad!”

When Xino heard this, she lost her cool.

She started complaining to her dad, ”You actually made Xu Yun spend two billion just to do one of your connections a favor!

He’s rich, but his money doesn’t grow on trees! He worked his ass off to earn it.

And now you just casually ask and make him spend two billion for you.

Dad, you’ve gone too far!”

Xi Huai’an: ”...”

Xu Yun tugged Xino’s hand and fanned the flames, ”It’s okay. I did it willingly.”

”I don’t believe you for a second.”

Xino, her heart aching for him, said to Xu Yun, ”You definitely did it for me, didn’t you? To get on my dad’s good side. That’s why you spent the two billion.”

”I can’t believe you saw right through me.”

Xu Yun put on a guilty expression, nodded, and said consolingly, ”It’s fine. If I run out of money, I can always earn more. I couldn’t let your dad lose face in front of his friend.”

”...”

Xi Huai’an watched Xu Yun’s performance, completely dumbfounded.

’I’m sure part of the reason this negotiation succeeded is because I’m Xino’s father.’

’But I absolutely refuse to believe he agreed entirely because of me!’

’I’m not that narcissistic. Besides, I don’t think Xu Yun would spend two billion just for my daughter.’

’I know how smart and outstanding Xu Yun is.’

’This little rascal is just using this whole thing to screw me over, win my daughter’s favor, and make her feel guilty all at the same time.’

”I don’t care! I’m not having it!”

Xino threatened, ”Dad, you have to give that two billion back to Xu Yun, or I’ll run away from home!”

Seeing this, Xu Yun secretly waited on the side, ready to watch the show.

’Even though I willingly spent the two billion, I was still a little pissed that Xi Huai’an dragged me into this deal without giving me a heads-up.’

’Otherwise, I wouldn’t have just tried to get back at him like that.’

’You made me uncomfortable, so I’m going to make you uncomfortable.’

”Then go ahead and leave.”

Xi Huai’an wasn’t the least bit angry at his daughter’s threat.

He glanced casually at Xu Yun and said, ”You might as well move into Xu Yun’s place today and never come back.”

’Checkmate? Two can play at that game, young man!’

Xino: ”???”

Xu Yun: ”...”

’Damn it. He really is an old fox.’

’So that’s how you want to play? Fine, don’t blame me for playing dirty!’

’You dote on your daughter the most, don’t you? Isn’t she the apple of your eye? Your precious little girl?’

’Then I’ll make sure you don’t sleep a wink tonight.’

Xu Yun shot a provocative glance at Xi Huai’an, then turned, took Xino’s face in both hands, and began kissing her brazenly, right in front of her parents.

Xino: ”(⊙o⊙)...”

She didn’t know why Xu Yun had suddenly kissed her and was a little stunned, but she still subconsciously started kissing him back.

Cheng Yuelan: ”￣□￣｜｜”

Xi Huai’an: ”([○･｀Д´･○]”

When the kiss ended, Xino finally came to her senses. Blushing, she said shyly, ”What are you doing? My parents are right here.”

”Couldn’t help it. You’re too beautiful.”

Xu Yun took her hand and said with a smile, ”Come on, let’s go back to my place. I’ll show you a good time.”

”Wait, Xu Yun.”

Xino said with concern, ”I haven’t helped you get the money back yet.”

”Forget about it. It’s only two billion.”

Xu Yun said affectionately as he pulled her toward the door, ”For you, I’d be willing to spend ten billion.”

”┭┮﹏┭┮”

The love-struck Xino was so moved she started to cry.

Previously, because of Chen Xin, she had even wondered if Xu Yun still liked her.

But it turned out she was just overthinking things.

She never imagined he loved her this much!

He saw money as dirt for her sake!

Xino secretly swore to herself that, in the future, she would definitely help Xu Yun get that two billion back from her family!

「Back in the house.」

Xi Huai’an was feeling absolutely awful, like he was full of rage but had no way to vent it.
