Super Rich by Doing as You Please-Chapter 53: Sorry, I’ve Already Kissed Her

Xu Yun overslept again today.

He got back from Li Jinshu’s place in the middle of the night and slept so soundly that he didn’t even think to set an alarm.

Now that he had money, he didn’t seem to care about trivial things like perfect attendance anymore.

After all, the worst that could happen was getting fired.

He’d stay if he could, and leave if he couldn’t.

At this point, he should have been off chasing his dreams of poetry and distant shores.

But for his mom’s sake, he had to go through this transition period, accumulate a bit more wealth, and then go out and live it up.

By the time he arrived at the office, it was almost 10:00 AM.

He even ran right into Manager Li.

Xu Yun figured he was about to get another earful, but Manager Li acted as if he hadn’t seen him, said nothing, and brushed right past him back to his own office.

’He used to snipe at me every time we met, but now he just avoids me.’

’Then again, I’d probably do the same if I were him.’

’You can’t win a war of words, you’re afraid of the other guy, and in the end, you’re the only one who ends up embarrassed.’

After getting to his desk, Xu Yun remembered he wanted to buy a house.

’They should be at work by now. I’ll give them a call and ask about it.’

The call connected quickly. A man’s voice was on the other end.

"Hello?"

Xu Yun asked, "Excuse me, is this the Haiyun Real Estate sales center?"

"Yes, it is. I’m the sales manager here. My name is Wan Kui."

The man asked, "How can I help you today?"

"I saw your company has a single-story flat for sale on the 19th floor of Jinyuan Building B?"

"Yes, sir."

Over the phone, the salesman named Wan Kui heard the interest in a luxury home and immediately grew warm and enthusiastic.

He hadn’t closed a deal in half a month.

"Sir, if you’re interested, I can come pick you up right now. I guarantee you’ll love this property. It’s a great price, too—a rare opportunity."

"I can’t right now. I’ll have time around noon."

Xu Yun added, "If I like it after seeing it, I’ll take it."

"No problem, sir."

Wan Kui said cheerfully over the phone, "May I ask your name, sir?"

"Xu Yun."

"Alright, Mr. Xu, I’ll contact you again around noon. Goodbye."

"Okay."

Just as Song Xiaowei was coming out of an office, she saw Xu Yun arrive.

She hurried over to him and was left speechless when she saw him playing on his phone.

’Slacking off again. He has absolutely no ambition.’

’And to think I actually had a slight crush on him before. It’s completely gone now.’

"Brother Xu, Manager Su wants to see you in her office."

Xu Yun looked at the somewhat haughty woman and retorted with a smile, "You didn’t just go tattle on me, did you?"

"No."

Song Xiaowei replied, "I just told the truth."

"Fine."

Xu Yun stood up. "I’ll go see how Manager Su plans to chew me out."

"..." Song Xiaowei was speechless.

After Xu Yun left, Xiaopang, who was nearby, looked at Song Xiaowei and spoke up for Xu Yun, "Why did you snitch on him?"

"I didn’t snitch. I just requested a new mentor."

Not to be outdone, Song Xiaowei retorted, "I don’t want to work with someone who has no ambition and no ability."

"Uh..."

Xiaopang’s mouth twitched. "Xu Yun is one of the most ambitious people in our company, and one of the best at his job.

The event proposals he creates have a 70% first-pass approval rate with clients.

If you just stick with him, you’ll get way more opportunities to host events than anyone else."

"???"

Song Xiaowei asked in confusion, "If he’s as amazing as you say, then why is he still just a low-level employee?"

"Getting promoted in the workplace isn’t just about ability."

Xiaopang looked at the newbie before him and shook his head. "Sometimes, a person’s background determines their ceiling.

You’ll understand after you’ve been in the workforce for a few more years."

"..." Song Xiaowei was silent.

"Also, the only reason you got hired here is because he needed someone on short notice."

Xiaopang added resentfully, "Otherwise, a fresh college graduate with no work experience like you wouldn’t have even had a chance."

"..." Song Xiaowei didn’t know what to say.

She didn’t believe it.

Back at her desk, she asked a few other male colleagues, and they all said more or less the same thing as Xiaopang.

Everyone had a pretty good impression of Xu Yun.

After all, how could they not say nice things after drinking his coffee for so many days?

Song Xiaowei hadn’t expected Xu Yun’s reputation in the company to be so good.

’Could I have really misunderstood him?’

Meanwhile, back in his office, Manager Li coldly watched Xu Yun head toward Su Mu’s office through the Venetian blinds.

He had actually seen Su Mu in the parking garage when he arrived that morning.

But he didn’t reveal himself right away.

The moment he saw her get out of the car, it was as if something clicked, and he was secretly overjoyed.

’After last time, he refused to believe that car was Xu Yun’s.

Even with Su Mu vouching for him, it didn’t matter. The two of them were probably having an affair anyway.

What if the car was Su Mu’s own?

And she just let Xu Yun drive it.

After all, Xu Yun was undeniably handsome. It wouldn’t be strange for Su Mu to keep him as a boy toy.

The boss keeps Su Mu, and Su Mu keeps Xu Yun. It wasn’t impossible.

And today’s scene completely confirmed his suspicions.

’All I need now is proof.

As long as I expose the two of them to the boss, hahaha... ’ 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

’Both of you can get the hell out!’

...

Meanwhile, Xu Yun had no idea that Manager Li was constantly watching him.

He walked into Su Mu’s office and asked with a smile, "You wanted to see me? Is it about the intern?"

"No."

Su Mu didn’t mention the intern at all. She smiled, took a car key from her drawer, placed it on the desk, and said, "Here, your car key."

"Why do you have it?"

"I swapped cars with Li Jinshu this morning."

Su Mu said with a smile, "You’re so generous, just lending out your sports car like that."

"Uh, Jinshu isn’t a stranger. She’s your best friend, right?"

"Then I’ll thank you on her behalf."

Thinking he had really done it for her sake, Su Mu stood up and poured Xu Yun a glass of water.

She said with a smile, "You were late again today. Can you stop messing around all the time?"

"Can’t help it. I can’t sleep at night when I’m alone."

Xu Yun spread his hands. "Unless someone keeps me company. You interested, sis?"

"Not interested."

Su Mu shot him a glare, but then smiled. "Don’t leave early today. I don’t have a car, so you can give me a ride home."

"I thought you didn’t sit in my passenger seat."

Xu Yun teased, "Another woman has sat there. You wouldn’t be used to it."

"Then you can sit in the passenger seat, and I’ll drive."

Xu Yun: "..."

’Now that’s a great idea.’

When Xiaopang saw Xu Yun return from Su Mu’s office, he asked with some concern, "Manager Su didn’t chew you out, did she?"

"How could she?"

Xu Yun grinned. "She called me in, but it had nothing to do with Song Xiaowei. It was about something else."

"Oh, good. As long as you’re not in trouble."

Xiaopang laughed. "I knew it. Why would Manager Su get on your case because of an intern?"

"You seem to know her pretty well."

"Well, we’ve been working together for two years. I’ve gotten to know her personality a little."

Xiaopang chuckled. "But you’re the one who interacts with Manager Su the most. You probably know her better than we do."

"That’s true."

Xu Yun said meaningfully, "I’m just one step away from getting to know her *intimately*."

"???"

Xiaopang was shocked. "HOLY SHIT, you’re not trying to poach the boss’s woman, are you?"

"You’re overthinking it."

"Xu Yun, let me give you a piece of advice."

Xiaopang lowered his voice. "Manager Su might be nice to you, but you should still try to keep your distance. You don’t want the boss to get jealous and fire you on the spot."

"..." Xu Yun was speechless.

’Sorry, but we’ve already kissed.’

’Besides, she’s not the boss’s mistress, she’s his cousin!’

From a distance, Song Xiaowei secretly watched Xu Yun, wanting to go over and ask what happened but too proud to do so.
