Stop staring. Most people couldn’t afford a car like this in their lifetime.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun said, \"No, we’re here. At my car.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’re here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Lei and his wife glanced around. All they saw were typical mid-range sedans; there weren’t any cheaper-looking cars in sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked in confusion, \"Where is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The one right in front of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re saying this is your car? Don’t joke around. That’s not...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Zhang Lei could finish, Xu Yun pulled a key fob from his pocket and pressed a button.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BEEP! BEEP!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With two pleasant-sounding chirps, the Bentley Flying Spur—the pinnacle of the garage’s style and status—instantly unlocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its headlights flashed on, illuminating Zhang Lei and his wife as they stood in front of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Lei stared in shock at the key fob in Xu Yun’s hand, then at the unlocked white Bentley. \"This is your car?\" he asked in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun looked at Zhang Lei, whose mouth had formed an \"O\" of astonishment, and replied with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yep. It’s mine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impossible. Absolutely impossible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Lei said in denial, \"This car costs millions. How could it be yours? Stop kidding me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He’d come here intending to laugh at the guy!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’And now you’re telling me he actually drives a car worth millions?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What a joke.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It really is Xu Yun’s car.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing to the side, Chen Xin spoke up for the first time, adding with a smile, \"I can vouch for him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t believe it. You two aren’t fooling me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his heart, Zhang Lei couldn’t believe or accept it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This doesn’t make any sense!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I know his family’s financial situation, I know his background.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’There’s no way this cousin of mine has the money for a car like this. Otherwise, his last girlfriend wouldn’t have broken up with him.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shot back, \"You just work a regular job. How high can your salary be? Where did you get the money for this car?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah, you got me. I knew I couldn’t fool you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun stepped forward and said consolingly, \"You’re right, it’s not actually my car. I rented it for three hundred a day. I’m back for my mom’s birthday and just wanted to put on a good show. You can’t tell anyone, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, so it’s a rental.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Zhang Lei immediately breathed a sigh of relief. \"See, I knew it,\" he chuckled. \"How could you suddenly have the money to buy such an expensive car? You gave me a real shock.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You seem to really like this car.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun offered, \"Why don’t you get in? I can give you a ride home so you can experience it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No thanks, we have our own car.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Lei’s sense of superiority and swagger instantly returned. He said pointedly, \"Your car is nice, but at the end of the day, it’s not yours. No matter how great a car is, driving it doesn’t give you the same peace of mind as driving your own.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All right, then. We’ll get going.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun chuckled, put their things in the trunk, moved a traffic cone out of the way, then opened the door and got in. With Chen Xin beside him, he hit the gas and drove off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Lei stood rooted to the spot and spat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Renting a car... what a poser! Honey, let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way, Chen Xin asked curiously, \"Why didn’t you just tell him you bought the car and wipe that arrogant smirk off his face?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even if I told him I bought it, he wouldn’t have believed me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun chuckled. \"Instead of arguing, it was better to give him an answer he could believe—one that made him feel better, too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just can’t stand that cousin of yours. He’s such a snob.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s not really a snob. It’s because of our families’ circumstances. He’s just always had a natural sense of superiority over me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun explained, \"But if you suddenly tell him the tables have turned, that everything’s reversed, it’s perfectly normal that he can’t accept it right away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I still don’t like him. I’m going to write him into my book as a minor villain and then utterly humiliate him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun was left speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Good grief,’ he thought. ’Her words cut like a knife, don’t they?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He wondered if he, too, would one day become a casualty of her writing.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, they were home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Zhang Sujuan saw them return with so much seafood in addition to the items on the original list, she asked, \"Who’s going to prepare all this? I don’t know how.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Xin will,\" Xu Yun replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? Me? I don’t know how, either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun chuckled. \"It’s fine. We’ll watch a tutorial video and learn as we go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xin and Zhang Sujuan: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Easy for you to say since you’re not the one doing it.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Still, they’d already bought all this expensive food. They had to prepare it now, whether they wanted to or not.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While they worked, Zhang Sujuan and Chen Xin started chatting, and somehow the conversation turned to Xu Yun’s encounter with Zhang Lei at the supermarket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Sujuan asked casually, \"They didn’t say anything to each other?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, they did.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xin replied with a smile, \"He was even bragging to Xu Yun about his car, which is worth a few hundred thousand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And what did Xu Yun say?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Yun said his own car was too cheap to mention. But then they ran into him again in the parking garage, and the guy insisted on seeing Xu Yun’s car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, when he saw Xu Yun’s Bentley, which is worth millions, his whole attitude soured. He refused to believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Xu Yun had to lie and say the car was just a rental. Only then did the guy seem to feel a little better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That boy, Zhang Lei... my sister-in-law has spoiled him since he was little. His character really is lacking.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t that Zhang Sujuan was clueless; on the contrary, she was well aware of the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said to Chen Xin, \"Our family wasn’t well-off in the past, so when the boys were little and played together, Zhang Lei was always the dominant one. He always had to take Xu Yun’s things.\u003C\u002Fp>",1128,"2026-06-03T11:41:56.865Z","2026-06-03T11:42:08.162Z",1,"novelbin.me","0d51c32e69b327df96937695661b346fd3a8cf6006c0521f69716f880a4daa4a","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-236","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-234",284,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsuper-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-cover.jpg"]
