I've Already Snagged a Top-tier Goddess at the Start; I'm Incredibly Wealthy!

19: Jiang Mengyuan realized something again.Jiang Mengyuan sat in the Ferrari Roma, her fingertips lightly stroking the steering wheel. The cool touch cleared her head a bit.

She had been a bit moody earlier, and when she parted ways with Cao Lang, she had a long face and didn’t say any parting words.

At this moment, her heart was full of bitterness. Cao Lang’s words from earlier still echoed in her ears: ”Don’t worry, your Ferrari won’t be taken back.” And that other sentence: ”I’ll look for you if I need you.”

These words stung her deeply. Cao Lang was bluntly reminding her of her position—she could be replaced at any time.

”Hmph, you big jerk!” Jiang Mengyuan slapped the steering wheel hard, tears falling uncontrollably. ”What’s so good about that woman? She’s just a bit more mature, a bit more elegant...”

Her voice grew quieter, but her mind became clearer. It was true, Li Na was indeed too charming—elegant, capable, and sophisticated.

Compared to her, her own little schemes were truly pathetic.

After all, Jiang Mengyuan had just graduated. Although she understood the ways of the world, she couldn’t manage to be that composed.

Returning to her rented apartment complex, the security guard’s eyes widened in shock when he saw the car she was driving!

He had always kept an eye on this goddess-like resident. She usually squeezed onto the bus; why was she driving a sports car today?

Jiang Mengyuan felt the security guard’s unwavering gaze, knowing that this time, he wasn’t looking at her, but at this cool Ferrari.

This morning, she was just a little receptionist with a monthly salary of five thousand, squeezing onto buses and scrounging to survive. Now, she possessed a dream that countless people couldn’t reach in a lifetime!

After returning home.

Pushing open the narrow apartment door, the smell of cat food wafted toward her. The kitten she had used as an excuse was curled up on the sofa, lazily lifting its eyelids.

”Ponyo, Mommy’s home.” Jiang Mengyuan picked up the kitten. ”Today, your stinky Daddy bought Mommy a Ferrari.”

The kitten let out a ”meow,” broke free from her embrace, and jumped straight onto the dining table to sit. The kitten didn’t understand its owner’s thoughts; it only cared about whether today’s canned food would be tasty.

Jiang Mengyuan took out her phone and found that the post in her Moments about ”a pair of slippers secretly added to the room” had already garnered dozens of likes and comments. While scrolling, she suddenly stopped at a message from her best friend, Xiaowen:

”Holy crap! You actually managed to snag a sugar daddy?! Get on a voice call, quick!”

After some thought, Jiang Mengyuan dialed the video call.

The screen lit up, and Xiaowen’s heavily made-up face appeared: ”Damn! Is that really you?! Xiwier Hotel?! Isn’t that a place that costs tens of thousands a night?”

”Thirty thousand a night,” Jiang Mengyuan replied softly. ”He... he booked it for a month.”

Xiaowen screamed, ”That’s incredible, sister! Working is out of the question now, for the rest of your life...”

”He bought me a Ferrari Roma today,” Jiang Mengyuan interrupted her.

Silence on the other end for a few seconds, followed by an explosion of envious screams: ”A Ferrari?! A Roma?! Holy shit, isn’t that a car worth nearly three million?!”

”He also transferred five hundred and fifty thousand to me.” Jiang Mengyuan said somewhat blankly, without much joy.

This time, Xiaowen practically bounced off her bed: ”Mengyuan! You’ve hit the jackpot, you know that?! You’ve got to hold onto a sugar daddy like this tightly!”

Jiang Mengyuan smiled bitterly. ”But he seems to... have his eye on someone else.”

”Someone else? Who?”

”A secretary at a law firm named Li Na. Today, he spent five million to buy shares in the law firm just to poach her as his private secretary.”

Jiang Mengyuan recounted everything that happened at the law firm today in detail.

After listening, Xiaowen clicked her tongue twice. ”A mature woman, huh? Charming. But so what? Your behavior today was such a disgrace!”

”What do you mean?” Jiang Mengyuan’s heart skipped a beat.

Was she in the wrong for being jealous? What kind of logic was that!

”High-quality men are bound to be playboys; that’s not a weakness, it’s a strength!” Xiaowen lectured her like an experienced veteran. ”Think about it, what kind of character do those men have who only use their mouths to trick you into bed? At least your sugar daddy won’t abandon you after he’s done; he gives you a car and money. How generous!”

Jiang Mengyuan fell silent. She thought of the stained sheets in the hotel last night and the appreciative look in Cao Lang’s eyes when he looked at Li Na. Xiaowen’s words seemed to make some sense—Cao Lang never hid his desires, but he also never broke his word. He gave what he said he would!

”Then... what should I do?” Jiang Mengyuan asked helplessly.

She was currently a bundle of contradictions; she wanted Cao Lang’s money, but she also wanted him to be devoted to her.

”What should you do? Become better, of course!” Xiaowen said on the screen, frustrated by her friend’s lack of initiative. ”Look at that Li Na; isn’t it just that she has a good aura and knows how to handle things? You can do that too!”

”I don’t know how... I can’t learn that...”

”Mengyuan, go sign up for classes, go learn. Sugar daddies usually don’t like empty vessels; they like capable women. Do you really think women can rise to the top just by their faces in this day and age? You’re too naive! The struggles in wealthy families are even more terrifying. This is an opportunity right now. If you don’t fight for it now, when will you, sister?!”

Hearing this, Jiang Mengyuan felt like she had been enlightened.

The words were blunt, but they made sense! Xiaowen was a qualified strategist.

”Okay, sister! When I succeed in the future, I’ll definitely take you out for good food and travel every day!”

”Go for it! I’ll be waiting for your good news!”

After hanging up, Jiang Mengyuan thought a lot. She really needed to change herself.

For a long time, she had fully exploited the dividends of her beautiful appearance. When she was young, even if she didn’t study hard, a bunch of sycophants would follow her around giving her gifts. This made her feel that she could live a very comfortable life without studying! She could just find a good man when she grew up!

Now that she was an adult, Jiang Mengyuan suddenly realized she was wrong! She was dead wrong!

Because she hadn’t studied since childhood and barely got into a vocational school, she knew nothing after graduation. With nothing but a pretty face, she could only be a receptionist.

Look at Li Na; she was both beautiful and capable. Even as a woman, she wanted to look at her more. Why should she expect a man not to be moved?

Putting herself in Cao Lang’s shoes, why would he choose her, Jiang Mengyuan, over Li Na?

...”Hello, is this the Jinsha Etiquette Training Center? I’d like to sign up for your VIP course...”

Next, she found a high-end financial knowledge lecture and a corporate management course. Within three hours, she spent nearly a hundred thousand yuan.

”Ponyo, Mommy is going to become more outstanding!” Jiang Mengyuan picked up the kitten, a flash of determination in her eyes. ”In the future, I won’t just sleep with Cao Lang; I’ll also help him manage his company!”

The kitten tilted its head, its little paws waving about as it meowed, as if saying, ”Pooper scooper, hurry up and clean my litter box!”

Cao Lang, who was bored and scrolling through TikTok on the large hotel bed, didn’t know yet that because of his ”fickleness,” the world had lost one ”vase” and gained a determined, high-execution female powerhouse!
