It would also shut Cai Shiwei up and prevent her from bothering him by pitching financial products in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for entrusting her with more funds in the future, that was just an empty promise he’d made, a carrot dangled to make sure she put some effort into spending the money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he acted like his money wasn’t real money, it was still best to make a profit. Who wants to lose, after all?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, after finishing the paperwork for the house, the two of them proceeded to handle the financial product arrangements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xu Yun’s authorized agent, Cai Shiwei was granted the right to buy and sell bank financial products within the five million yuan account limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xuan stood to the side the entire time, not saying a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being around Xu Yun, she felt like money wasn’t money anymore, just a number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It started in Shanghai. Hundreds of thousands in tips for streamers, given just like that. A watch worth several million, bought without a second thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The night before last, at dinner, he committed to a five-million-yuan investment as if it were nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, the same thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He handed over five million to someone else as casually as if he were giving them five yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In less than a week, she had watched Xu Yun spend nearly 15 million!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xuan didn’t know, nor did she have any idea, what Xu Yun’s net worth was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as a hotel butler, she had served many wealthy people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some were even worth over a hundred million!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all very rich, but none of them spent money as freely as Xu Yun, as if it meant nothing to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before, she had been a little worried about her future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Now I see that I made the right choice.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It seems I’ve really latched onto a powerful backer.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they finished their business at the bank, on the way back, Yu Xuan was driving again with Xu Yun in the passenger seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A short while later, he received a message from Jiang Peiyao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Xu Yun, my house has been auctioned off by the court.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting in the passenger seat, Xu Yun read the message but didn’t tell her that he was the one who had bought the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He replied comfortingly: [It’s okay. Out with the old, in with the new. Just focus on taking care of your brother’s illness. I’m here for you.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Jiang Peiyao: Okay, I understand.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, Jiang Peiyao sent another message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Xu Yun, I miss you a little.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun read her new message, but this time, he didn’t reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren’t for the car enthusiast meet-up tomorrow, he might have acted on impulse, flown right over, and cured her of her longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that was impossible right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about the meet-up tomorrow, Xu Yun glanced at the clothes Yu Xuan was wearing and frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, \"Let’s go to Jiangshang Mall and buy some things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following Xu Yun’s directions, the two arrived at Jiangshang Mall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t been here to shop in a long time, not since Ning Qian had quit her job at the store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For one thing, his excitement for luxury goods had faded; he no longer felt attached to them or cared much about them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For another, he knew—thanks to Ning Qian—that the clothes displayed for sale in the store were just the leftovers that other customers hadn’t wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The top-tier, exclusive items from these luxury brands were never even put out on the sales floor. As soon as a shipment arrived, they were offered to the store’s established clientele—the truly wealthy people who spent millions at the store every year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had separate VIP rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So when the new season’s items came in, they were hung up directly in there, waiting for the rich patrons to come in and make their selections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alternatively, the store would deliver the items directly to their homes for them to choose from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they didn’t select clothes off a rack; they had dedicated models who would wear the outfits and stand before them so they could see how the clothes looked when worn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xu Yun heard this from Ning Qian back then, he realized what a clown he’d been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I thought spending hundreds of thousands in one go was so impressive, but it turns out I wasn’t even worthy of walking through their VIP door!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Those saleswomen were really great actresses, making me feel like a genuine VIP!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the time, Ning Qian had explained the situation to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said that the spending power he’d demonstrated when buying clothes was indeed higher than that of an average customer. If he had just continued to shop there a few more times, he too could have become one of the store’s high-end clients with access to the VIP rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>",1154,"2026-06-03T11:41:56.865Z","2026-06-03T11:42:08.162Z",1,"novelbin.me","9d15c78a33c008b21a725e9447ff34ece243d5d88a1c944f7a60cacb4ced1e59","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-167","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-165",284,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsuper-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-cover.jpg"]
