Why would Xu Yun give her the house code instead of Su Mu, after all?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While they were looking at the house, Xu Yun also received a notification on his phone about the bill from Shangfang Hot Pot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qian had spent a total of around 15,000 yuan, which even included the private room fee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun knew the prices there, so he just smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This woman really is frugal for my sake.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a taxi home, Xu Yun had expected Ning Qian would stay out a while longer with her friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it turned out she was already back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had already showered and was lying on the sofa in her pajamas, casually watching TV.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she heard the door open and saw it was Xu Yun, Ning Qian happily scrambled up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forgetting about shoes, she ran over barefoot and stopped in front of him, asking cheerfully, \"What are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is my house. Can’t I come here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course you can. You can come every day.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qian asked with concern, \"Have you eaten? Should I go make you something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need, I ate out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun wrapped an arm around her, walked her to the sofa, and sat down. \"You went to dinner with your friends today?\" he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qian nodded. \"They helped me move all afternoon, so I treated them to dinner tonight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were eight of us, and we spent a total of fifteen thousand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only fifteen thousand for eight people?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun pinched her nose and chuckled. \"You’re too cheap. Why didn’t you treat them to more?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was plenty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qian replied with a smile, \"It’s not like your money grows on trees. I should save it where I can.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry about it. My money might as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Ning Qian didn’t believe him; she just thought Xu Yun was being generous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She snuggled into Xu Yun’s embrace and asked, \"Do you want to take a shower now? I’ll go run the water for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A short while later, the water was ready.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun wanted to pull Ning Qian in to shower with him, but she told him to go ahead by himself, saying she needed to prepare something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said she had a surprise for him after he got out of the shower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun showered quickly on his own. He washed his hair, rinsed off, and came out wrapped in a bathrobe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn’t see Ning Qian in the living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the master bedroom door half-open, Xu Yun smiled and walked toward it. The moment he entered the room, he was stunned by Ning Qian’s outfit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was kneeling on the bed, dressed in a sexy black-and-white maid costume, with nothing on underneath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment she saw Xu Yun, she put on a wronged expression and said, \"Master, your servant knows she was wrong. Please don’t punish me, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「The next morning.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Xu Yun and Ning Qian had breakfast at home, they called a private car and left together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He first dropped Ning Qian off at the mall, then prepared to head to the Guotai Commerce Center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, he received a call from the police station. They said someone had filed a report accusing him of intentionally damaging their property yesterday. As per regulations, he was required to come to the station to cooperate with the investigation and give a statement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Xu Yun heard this, he knew it was probably about that ex-husband.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said okay, then immediately called his law firm and briefly explained what had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Since I’m paying their retainer, I might as well use it.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening to the brief summary, Luo Xudong said it was nothing to worry about and that he would arrange for someone to handle it shortly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yun arrived at the police station entrance. After waiting just a few moments, a woman in a formal business suit walked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Xu, hello. I’m Lawyer Luo’s assistant. My name is Liu Limin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Limin said with a smile, \"When we go inside, don’t say a word. Let me handle everything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, I’ll leave it to you then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just like that, Xu Yun walked into the local police station with Liu Limin and saw yesterday’s ex-husband, Zhao Xianhong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Officer, that’s him! He’s the one who intentionally hit my car yesterday!\" Zhao Xianhong immediately pointed at Xu Yun upon seeing him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The police officer glanced at Xu Yun and said, \"You’re Xu Yun, right? Can you tell me what happened yesterday?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, Officer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Liu Limin stepped forward. \"I am Mr. Xu’s legal counsel,\" she said. \"Here is my bar license. My name is Liu Limin. If you have any questions, I can answer them for him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even an assistant at a top-tier law firm was a legitimate, licensed lawyer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At an ordinary firm, she could probably be a lead attorney.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officer: \"???\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xianhong: \"???\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I call you in to take a statement, and you bring a lawyer?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lawyer Liu, we just received a report and are conducting a routine interview to get a statement. The nature of the incident hasn’t been determined yet.\" The officer’s tone became more polite when addressing the lawyer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since she was a lawyer from a top-tier firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Can’t afford to offend her. Absolutely can’t afford to offend her!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Regarding yesterday’s matter, Mr. Xu has already explained the details to me before coming here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Limin said, \"First, I’d like to state that this whole affair is based on Mr. Zhao’s subjective opinion, not objective fact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Xu simply made an error in judgment due to nervousness, resulting in a perfectly normal traffic accident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secondly, immediately after the accident occurred, Mr. Xu called his insurance company, proactively reported it to the traffic police, and was willing to cover all of the other party’s losses.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Limin’s thinking and logic were so clear that the officer couldn’t help but nod along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, they also thought the case was straightforward and had already checked with the insurance company. But since the accuser was so insistent, they had no choice but to follow up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Officer, don’t believe her!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xianhong said angrily, \"I’m telling you, he hit my car on purpose! The parking lot was so wide, so why did he just happen to hit me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Zhao.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Limin turned to him and asked, \"You claim Mr. Xu hit your car intentionally. Let me ask you a few questions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go ahead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you know each other before the collision?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then did you have any conflict before the collision? Had you even spoken to each other?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You see, Officer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Limin spread her hands. \"Before the incident, these two men didn’t know each other, had no conflict, and had never even spoken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My client could not have possibly hit his car on purpose, because there was absolutely no motive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following normal logic, who would be foolish enough to take a new car worth over 1.6 million and crash it into another new car that’s worth less?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, according to the damage assessment report, Mr. Xu’s losses are even greater than Mr. Zhao’s.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What if... he’s just crazy?\" Zhao Xianhong retorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Limin asked again, \"Fine. Even if what you say is true, where’s the proof? Everything requires evidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You claim Mr. Xu hit your car intentionally. Do you have any evidence to back that up? Your word alone isn’t enough; the law is based on evidence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officer inquired, \"Do you have any evidence to prove he hit your car on purpose? If so, you can show it to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xianhong: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1383,"2026-06-03T11:41:56.589Z","2026-06-03T11:42:08.161Z",1,"novelbin.me","1082906328994fe5a574d88ed53c170638cf793862f9f2d90aa5e8c6a88e5f77","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-73","super-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-chapter-71",284,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsuper-rich-by-doing-as-you-please-cover.jpg"]
