Her feelings were a tangled mess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, when she acted a little wild and unrestrained around Xu Yun, it didn’t seem to matter. She felt he was easygoing and wouldn’t hold it against her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just now, when his face was long and expressionless, he had been a little frightening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, Chen Xin eagerly volunteered to clear the table and wash the dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t been much help during the cooking, and she couldn’t just eat without contributing anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She would feel too guilty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mu said nothing, neither agreeing nor objecting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jinshu, perhaps trying to make up for her earlier mistake, wanted to wash them herself, but Xu Yun said, \"You go rest. I’ll go wash them with her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At his words, Li Jinshu fell silent again, her expression souring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun wasn’t giving Li Jinshu the cold shoulder to help Chen Xin, but to send her a message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Don’t think that just because I’m easygoing and good-natured, you can overstep your bounds and turn against the heavens, saying whatever you want without any consideration.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Everyone knows what’s going on between me and Chen Xin, but what are you trying to accomplish by saying it out loud in front of me and her?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Are you trying to demand an answer from me?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Or are you just jealous and trying to make Chen Xin back off?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Whatever the reason, this is my business.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I can say it, and I can do it, but no one is going to force my hand!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Don’t think that just because you’ve slept with me a few times, Li Jinshu, you can act like you’re the mistress of the house.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If you’ve got the guts, go provoke Su Mu. Be passive-aggressive with her.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What kind of skill is it to bully someone with social anxiety like Chen Xin!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun and Chen Xin went to the kitchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One washed the dishes, the other rinsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xin whispered, \"Thank you for helping me out of that situation earlier.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really want to thank me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course I do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun chuckled. \"Perfect timing. Since no one’s around, why don’t you give me a kiss?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\" Chen Xin’s face immediately flushed crimson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m just kidding,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun said. \"You’re like a modern-day Lord Guan, blushing at the drop of a hat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’How did such a shy, introverted woman ever think of writing lewd novels about the ultra-rich?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’The contrast is just too huge.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Online, I’m a master surfer, an expert at dropping innuendos, and full of saucy remarks.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’In reality, I’ll blush and my heart will race just from holding hands.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That’s Chen Xin in a nutshell.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xin asked, \"You seem to have a good relationship with your neighbors?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When we came over earlier, I noticed that the one named Li Jinshu looked at you... oddly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xin said, \"You should maintain a good relationship with your neighbors. As they say, a close neighbor is better than a distant relative. If you have an emergency, they might be able to help you out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But she was trying to bully you just now,\" Xu Yun couldn’t help but laugh. \"And you’re defending her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She didn’t bully me, she just asked me a question.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xin said, \"I didn’t even mind, so why should you? After I leave tomorrow, you should apologize to her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\" Chen Xin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the living room, Li Jinshu and Su Mu sat on the sofa, watching TV.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, neither of them was paying attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jinshu kept glancing toward the kitchen, feeling a pang of dejection and regretting her thoughtless actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Looking back now, it was mainly my own jealousy acting up.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was afraid that Xu Yun and Chen Xin would actually get together, that Chen Xin would steal him away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To put it bluntly, she was growing more and more attached to Xu Yun. Whether it was for material supplies or emotional support, she was becoming somewhat dependent on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that she hadn’t realized it herself yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On top of that, Xu Yun had always been so good to her, so indulgent, that it had made her a little conceited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This incident had forced her to re-evaluate her own position and circumstances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Xu Yun is only good to you on the premise that he likes you and is willing to spoil you.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jinshu turned to Su Mu and asked, \"Susu, do you think I made Xu Yun angry just now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Probably.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mu said irritably, \"Any other time, maybe it would be fine, but how could you say those things to Chen Xin today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what should I do now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jinshu asked for advice, \"Should I go apologize to Chen Xin later?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, just leave it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mu said, \"It’s not that big a deal. What’s done is done. Xu Yun will probably only be mad for a little while; he likely won’t hold a grudge.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the first time I’ve ever seen him angry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jinshu said, \"With that cold expression, he was a little scary.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So now you’re scared?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mu gloated with a laugh, \"That’s what you get for being so loud and boisterous around him all the time, without any restraint. Any outsider who didn’t know better would think you were his girlfriend.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re still laughing.\" Li Jinshu was now deeply regretting her tactlessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two women were talking, Xu Yun and Chen Xin came out from washing the dishes, and the atmosphere grew a little awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun was about to head back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chen Xin took the initiative to speak up. \"I’m heading back tomorrow, and I don’t have any food for the road. I was thinking of going out to buy some snacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister Jinshu, would you be willing to go with me? I’m not very familiar with the area.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah? Yes, of course I’ll go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Li Jinshu immediately came over. She stole a cautious glance at Xu Yun and said, \"What do you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you, my treat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\" Then Chen Xin took Li Jinshu’s hand, and they went out the door together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a pair of sisters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching this scene, Su Mu had two thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Either this Chen Xin is a master manipulator, and this is all an act for Xu Yun’s benefit...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’...or she’s genuinely a very kind and simple woman.’\u003C\u002Fp>",1137,"2026-06-03T11:41:56.865Z","2026-06-03T11:42:08.161Z",1,"novelbin.me","79231fe8bc2020dc828afed92a787d9f34cce089bbf40af573ec0c78eeb9c789","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-140","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-138",284,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsuper-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-cover.jpg"]
