Winning meant I could hold it over her!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Now, she doesn’t even bother competing with me. She’s clearly too good for the ten-thousand-yuan bonus.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I heard that Mr. Xu casually gave her a 200,000-yuan VIP card.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’And look at the guy I’m with. I have to talk his ear off at night just to get him to buy me a 20,000-yuan bag.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The comparison was infuriating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She found herself disliking Ning Qian more and more. If she ever got the chance, she would definitely make her life difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jealousy often warps a person beyond recognition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two or three of Ning Qian’s colleagues came along to her new home to help her put things away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked around the new home and remarked, \"This place is huge. It’s a real waste for just you to live here alone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not so bad.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qian smiled and said, \"I’m guessing this is probably his smallest property.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s true. A man of his status should be living in a villa or a luxury high-rise apartment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ooh, what’s in this exquisite box?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While tidying up, one of her colleagues said this and curiously opened the box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just like that, several glittering gold bars of various sizes appeared before their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"!!!\" The two of them froze, muttering, \"Is this... gold?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Ning Qian hurried over, snapped the box shut, and picked it up. She said, a bit angrily, \"Don’t mess with his things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, sorry! We didn’t know there was gold inside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qian said, annoyed, \"You can touch my things, but don’t mess with anything else in this house. Otherwise, I’ll get really angry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, we understand.\" The other two exchanged a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’They really hadn’t expected to find gold just by opening a random box.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Who leaves something so valuable just lying around? It’s so unsafe.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It should be in a safe, at the very least.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Is this what a rich person’s home is like? Just leaving gold lying around, without any fear of it getting stolen.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qian stepped aside to check the box. She noticed a small, 100-gram gold bar was missing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Of course her friends couldn’t have taken it. Xu Yun must have taken it with him when he left this morning.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I wonder who he’s giving it to.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But no matter who he gave it to, she had no right to interfere.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’After working as a sales associate for so many years, she knew one thing for certain: men don’t really like smart women!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She didn’t have any other advantages over other women. Her only strategy was to play the part of an obedient woman who never fought or vied for anything!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qian suddenly remembered the photos she’d seen on Xu Yun’s phone last night, and a sense of crisis washed over her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She secretly made up her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’After dinner tonight, I have to go buy some nice lingerie or pajamas.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I can’t lose right at the starting line.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She didn’t dare to compete openly, but a little secret rivalry should be fine, right?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Xu Yun had brought Song Xiaowei to Guotai Mall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Staff were already starting to set up the venue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao was off to one side, supervising and directing the crew. When she spotted Xu Yun, she hurried over to greet him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Yun, you’re here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she looked at the woman beside him and asked with a smile, \"And who is this lovely lady?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She’s the host I found for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun replied, \"I brought her here today to get familiar with the venue. I also wanted you to meet her. What do you think? Satisfied?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She’s great. She has a wonderful presence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao smiled. \"She’ll look stunning in our store’s jewelry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, I’m Song Xiaowei. I’ll be the host for your event.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, Miss Song.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao called someone over. \"Please coordinate with Miss Song about the jewelry and accessories she’ll be wearing for the event.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, Manager Jiang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After making the arrangements, Jiang Peiyao turned back to Xu Yun. \"Why don’t you come and sit in my office for a bit?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Xiaowei watched as the two of them headed toward the office inside the store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the office, Jiang Peiyao poured Xu Yun a glass of water. \"My office is a bit small. I hope you don’t mind,\" she said, slightly embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s great.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun joked self-deprecatingly, \"At my company, my desk space is only half a meter wide.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you hot?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao said, \"I can turn the AC down a bit if you are.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m fine, but you seem to be breaking a sweat, Manager Jiang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It has been a bit busy today,\" Jiang Peiyao said, casually taking off her work jacket and revealing the blouse she wore underneath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a white, short-sleeved blouse, a bit too small. The buttons on her chest were strained, looking like they might pop open at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao felt Xu Yun’s gaze on her chest but felt no discomfort. Instead, she smiled and said, \"This uniform is a bit small for me. They haven’t sent a replacement in the right size, so it’s a little tight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think it fits you just right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun joked, then averted his eyes. He took a small, 100-gram gold bar from his pocket and placed it in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao froze for a moment, then asked, confused, \"Xu Yun, what’s this for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s nothing special.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun explained with a smile, \"This is to thank you for helping me negotiate the price when I bought the house. You saved me a lot of money.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no, there’s no need. We’re friends.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao hadn’t expected him to offer such a valuable gift and quickly refused. \"I really didn’t do much to help.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Manager Jiang, I don’t like being indebted to people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun said, \"If you don’t accept it, you’ll be treating me like a stranger, not like a friend.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao hesitated, then replied, \"Alright, then. Thank you for the gift.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>grams, worth around 60,000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For someone like her, who was short on cash, this was a much-needed windfall that would relieve a great deal of her financial pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, right. I need to ask you for another favor, Manager Jiang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That set of collector’s edition gold bars I bought from you last time... I’ve been giving them away as gifts, and there aren’t many left.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun said with a smile, \"So, I was thinking of buying another set. Could you please prepare one for me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Giving them away? All of them?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That was gold! It’s only been a few days, and he’s already given most of them away.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao looked down at the gold bar in her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Does he just hand them out like this, the way he just gave this to me?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’How incredibly extravagant.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She knew Xu Yun’s family was rich, but this was a whole other level of spending.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Yun, I’d actually advise against buying them from our store.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time was different from last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last time, she had purely been after the sales commission. But now, their relationship had changed, and she found herself looking out for his interests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao hesitated for a moment, then said, \"If you’re really buying them as a birthday gift for your aunt, I’d suggest you go directly to a bank and buy their investment-grade gold bars. For one, they’re cheaper, and for another, they’re more secure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you saying there’s something off about the gold from your store?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know. It’s not my area of expertise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Peiyao shook her head. \"But I think, for the older generation, a bank’s reputation is always more trustworthy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun thought about it. She had a point, so he dropped the idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as they were chatting, a clerk knocked and entered the office. She said nervously, \"Manager Jiang, there’s trouble outside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1486,"2026-06-03T11:41:56.589Z","2026-06-03T11:42:08.161Z",1,"novelbin.me","6529f7111dd88bc503c5dc5cc1aa72ea0fe73ee47deabd31f58888b4ba32126a","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-69","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-67",284,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsuper-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-cover.jpg"]
