It’s 3,800 yuan per table.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On a Saturday afternoon in a Jiangcheng coffee shop, Xu Yun said, \"And about the packaging for the wedding candy, I gave them the design you sent me last time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They said they need to redo it. We have to go look at a sample in a couple of days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman across from him, who was quite attractive, replied distractedly while playing on her phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her name was Huang Mengyao, Xu Yun’s girlfriend. They were about to get married.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her glued to her phone, Xu Yun frowned. \"What’s wrong? Weren’t you really into all this before? You seem a bit out of it today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao kept her head down, still focused on her phone. \"Did you buy the drinks and the liquor?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I bought the drinks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun replied, \"But I wanted to talk to you about the liquor. Is it okay if we get Guojiao 1573?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn’t my mom tell you to buy Maotai?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao looked up, a little angry. \"Can you please pay a little more attention to this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I did a rough calculation. Over 60 tables means over 60 bottles of liquor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun explained, \"If we buy Maotai, it’s about 1,500 yuan more expensive per bottle. For 60 bottles, that’s almost 100,000 yuan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao said, displeased, \"Are you trying to settle accounts with me? Do you think marrying me is costing you too much money?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All the money I saved in the five years since I graduated is with you. You know how much that is—a little less than 200,000 yuan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun said helplessly, \"The 166,000 yuan for the betrothal gift is gone, and I had to borrow 300,000 yuan from my mom for the wedding banquet. You tell me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding up her phone, Huang Mengyao cut him off, annoyed. \"You didn’t have the 288,000 yuan for the betrothal gift, so okay, I didn’t ask for it. I asked you for 166,000 yuan, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I didn’t make you book one of those so-called luxury hotels, did I?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You saw my best friends’ weddings. They spent tens of thousands on flowers alone, and now you’re nickel-and-diming me over this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m just trying to discuss it with you. Don’t get so worked up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun said, \"We’re the ones who have to live our lives. Whether we live well or not has nothing to do with other people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Back in my hometown, a wedding table costs just over 2,000 yuan, and that’s considered high. I’m not asking to go by that standard, am I?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just think we should live within our means.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing this, Huang Mengyao gave him a look of disdain. \"This isn’t your little hometown. This is a big city. It’s a matter of principle, and there’s nothing to discuss.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, fine, we’ll do it your way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were about to get married, and Xu Yun didn’t want to fight with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. While we’re on the subject, there’s something else I wanted to tell you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao put down her phone. \"After we get married, my parents are going to come live with us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mm, that’s fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun nodded. \"We can give them the slightly larger room. My mom’s by herself, so she can take the smaller one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your mom is coming to live with us?\" Huang Mengyao sounded surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, didn’t I tell you that a long time ago?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun replied, \"She sold her house back home and added her entire life savings just to buy this apartment for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it’s not convenient for your mom to live here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If she doesn’t live in this apartment, where do you expect my mom to live?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a saint has his limits. Xu Yun was getting angry. \"She’s the one who bought this apartment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know she bought it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao said in a hostile tone, \"But she bought it for the two of us as our marital home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By that logic, your parents shouldn’t live here either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s impossible. My parents raised me for over twenty years. They won’t feel at ease or comfortable if I’m too far away from them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun scoffed. \"Far? When we bought this place, the whole point was that it was close to your family’s home. It’s just a base taxi fare away. And now you’re telling me it’s far?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our two families come from different backgrounds. It’s just not convenient for us to live together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not convenient?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun retorted, \"My mom used her life savings and sold her own house to buy this apartment, and you won’t let her live here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao looked down, typing a message on her phone. \"I’m not saying she can’t live here. I just think it’s inconvenient for both families to live together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, compared to that small town you’re from...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My mom bought this place by selling her own house.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Losing his composure, Xu Yun cut her off, his voice rising. \"She doesn’t have a home anymore!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you yelling?\" Huang Mengyao was instantly annoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Me, yelling? That’s not...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun struggled to control his emotions. \"Have you ever considered my family’s feelings? My mom doesn’t have her own house. She has nowhere to live!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And now you’re telling me she can’t stay here? Then where is she supposed to live? She bought the apartment!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn’t it her duty to buy it? It’s a mother’s duty to buy an apartment for her son.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao said dismissively, \"She’s only bought this one apartment in her entire life. The fact that she used her life savings is her problem, not ours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My mom’s problem?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun laughed in anger and shot back, \"They say you raise children to support you in your old age. But with what you’re doing now, not only can I not provide for her, but I’m supposed to kick her out of her own home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When two people get married, it’s about two families coming together to build a new one, not for your family to be a bunch of leeches!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From the very beginning, you’ve looked down on me for not having money and looked down on my family for being from a small town. But have I not done my absolute best to meet every single one of your demands?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can give in to you on other things, but this is impossible. It’s not up for discussion!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you can’t sort this out, then we’ll just have to postpone the wedding.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao threatened him with the wedding. \"I’ll tell my parents not to message our relatives or send out the invitations. You go have a good talk with your mom.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My mom is moving in in the next few days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun had been holding back for years. He didn’t want to hold back anymore. If he kept this up, it would probably be for the rest of his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’To hell with it. Worst-case scenario, I just won’t get married.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you don’t agree, then pack up your things and move out tomorrow. And transfer all of my money that you’re holding back to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao was stunned. She never expected the usually agreeable Xu Yun to suddenly take such a hard line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression changed as she demanded, \"What do you mean? You don’t want to get married anymore, is that it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Marry my ass! Get the hell out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Mengyao fumed, \"Fine! You’re the one who said it. Don’t you regret this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the furious woman get up and leave, Xu Yun wiped his face and ran his hands through his hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had met this woman on a blind date three years ago. He thought she was decent-looking with an okay personality, and since his mother was always eager for a grandchild, he had decided to get married to fulfill her wish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But who knew that right before the wedding, her personality would do a complete 180.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She listened to those \"best friends\" of hers, and the demands became endless, one after another!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Everyone has their limits.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s one thing for me to suffer a little or put up with some grievances—that’s my own choice. But I can’t wrong my own mother!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Besides, you’re an unemployed woman who lives off me, eats my food, wears clothes I buy, and you still have the nerve to look down on me?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Screw you. You think you’re hot stuff just because you’re a little pretty?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’When I’m rich someday, every woman I sleep with will be better than you!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The Do as You Please System has been successfully activated.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Note: What does it mean to Do as You Please? It means to follow your heart’s truest desires and do whatever you want.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[From this moment on, every time the host acts according to the Do as You Please principle, the system will issue a cash reward based on set criteria.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[For making the Do as You Please decision to give up on marrying your blood-sucking girlfriend, the host is rewarded with 200,000 yuan in cash.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the mechanical voice in his head, Xu Yun thought he was hallucinating from his earlier rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the next second, his phone buzzed. A text message appeared on the Xiaomi phone he had been using for three years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your bank account ending in 6818 received a deposit of 200,000 yuan on March 24, 2024. New balance: 205,300 yuan. [Agricultural Bank of China]\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Xu Yun’s brain completely short-circuited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After it rebooted, he opened his mobile banking app and checked the balance on his card. His breathing grew rapid...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Did my dream... just become reality?’\u003C\u002Fp>",1623,"2026-06-03T11:41:56.865Z","2026-06-03T11:42:07.885Z","novelbin.me","55e3520a946a9bcbbe9980d8fad2c156a1347be6accef7ba2f17165be4e3d024","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-2","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-100",284,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsuper-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-cover.jpg"]
