Chapter 747 - 330: On How to Reach 30 Billion?

"I don’t think so."

Xu Yun smiled and said, "Since this is the first time we’re all meeting, and I didn’t bring any gifts, how about I treat you all to a meal?

Please help me look after Nana at school from now on."

"Tonight’s probably not going to work."

Someone said, "Tonight is Yiyi’s birthday. Her boyfriend is throwing her a party at a high-end KTV. Why don’t you come along with Nana?"

"Yiyi is one of my three roommates," Anar Guli explained from the side.

"Can I? I wouldn’t want to intrude on a get-together between you students, would I?"

"It’s fine. You’re Nana’s boyfriend."

The girl named Xiaobei laughed. "Coincidentally, Yiyi’s boyfriend is also a rich second-generation heir. You two might even have a lot to talk about."

Anar Guli said, "If it’s not convenient for you, then never mind."

’Although that’s what she said, she actually wanted Xu Yun to go. Who wouldn’t want to show off their outstanding boyfriend?’

People who like to hide their boyfriends or girlfriends are either playing the field or keeping you as a backup plan.

Because your existence would interfere with someone else the other person cares about more.

"It’s not inconvenient at all."

Xu Yun had naturally seen through Anar Guli’s thoughts. He said, "Just remember to send me the address later. I have a few things to take care of, so I’ll be over a bit later."

"Okay."

After dinner, Anar Guli was pulled away by her two roommates. They were heading back to the dorm to get all dolled up for the party tonight.

On the way, the two of them were teasing Anar Guli.

"Nana, you’re something else! Finding such a handsome boyfriend behind our backs."

"Yeah, you kept it from us really well. Tell us, when did you two get together?"

Anar Guli said shyly, "We... just decided to get together."

"Just now?"

Xiaolan asked in surprise, "No wonder you never said anything before! How did you two meet? It wasn’t online, was it?"

"Online?"

Xiaobei jumped in, "Online dating is the least reliable. It’s full of scammers who pretend to be rich heirs to swindle you out of your money and your... well, you know."

"No, it’s not like that. And we didn’t meet online."

Anar Guli explained, "I met him on the road when he was traveling near my hometown. He was driving an RV and was a really nice person."

"Now that you mention it, that sounds a bit more reliable. But..."

Xiaolan asked, puzzled, "You only met once, and you fell for him in just a few days?"

"I call it love at first sight."

"But do you know anything about him?"

Xiaobei asked, "Like what his parents do, where his family lives? Does he have a car and a house? Is he really a rich heir? And so on..."

"We’re dating, not getting married."

Anar Guli said with a smile, "None of that is important, right? As long as we like each other."

"You... you’re just totally love-struck."

Xiaobei said, "We’re just reminding you out of kindness. It never hurts to be a little cautious. Otherwise, if you get scammed, you’ll have nowhere to go to cry about it."

"Thanks for your concern. I know what I’m doing."

Anar Guli laughed. "Even if I do get scammed, I’ll accept it."

"Fine, have it your way. Anyway, we need to dress up really nicely tonight."

Xiaolan smiled. "Yiyi said her boyfriend is bringing two of his friends. He’s going to introduce them to us.

You and Yiyi both have boyfriends now, so it’s just the two of us who are still single. Tonight’s a great opportunity."

"Go for it! I have faith in you guys."

Xiaobei suddenly gave a well-intentioned warning, "Nana, maybe you shouldn’t dress up too much. You don’t want to outshine the birthday girl. You know how Yiyi can be a little petty sometimes."

"Okay."

After parting with Anar Guli, Xu Yun was about to send a message to Su Mu to tell her he probably couldn’t have dinner with her tonight.

But unexpectedly, she messaged him first, saying she had a dinner engagement and that he should go have fun on his own and not wait for her.

Xu Yun replied with an "Okay," then went to a nearby mall. He found a Louis Vuitton store and bought four scarves.

It was still pretty cold in winter.

He planned to give them to Anar Guli and her roommates as gifts that evening.

’After all, women are born loving this kind of stuff.’

In addition to that, he also bought Anar Guli a bag and a limited-edition outfit.

Then he went to Cartier and other stores to buy a necklace and a bracelet.

’Since she’s my woman now, I can’t treat her poorly.’

But even so, all of it added up to just over 100,000 yuan. To Xu Yun, that wasn’t even real money; it was less than a single day’s interest from his bank account.

By the time he finished his shopping trip, it was about time.

Xu Yun looked at the location info Anar Guli had sent him, grabbed his things, and hailed a cab.

On the way, he received the reward for buying the house earlier that afternoon.

[Faced with Shanghai’s number one luxury mansion, the Host acted as he pleased and purchased a residence worth 700 million. For establishing a new base of operations, the Host is rewarded with 2 billion.]

[Current Bank Balance: 28 Billion]

Xu Yun looked at his balance and wondered if he should go on another huge spending spree to round it up to 30 billion!

’With his slight OCD, looking at that number was really bothering him!’

’How could he round it up to 30 billion?’

Just as Xu Yun was pondering what big-ticket item to buy, the car arrived at its destination.

This was a so-called high-end club on the Bund.

Xu Yun had been to quite a few clubs in recent months, so his standards had risen.

Walking in, he could clearly feel the luxurious atmosphere and see the top-tier facilities!

But in his eyes, it was still lacking something.

’How high-end could a club open to the general public really be?’

Truly high-end places were private, members-only establishments that served only a small, select group of people.

Some said these were a part of the Celestial Palace, not to be glimpsed by mere mortals.

Shanghai definitely had places like that, and probably many of them, but he hadn’t had the chance to experience them yet!

’I need someone to show me the way.’

Arriving at the front desk, Xu Yun gave the room number and was led to the room by an attendant.

As soon as he entered, the four women and three men inside all turned to look at him.

Because he was the last to arrive.

"Handsome Xu, you’re finally here."

Xiaobei, whom he had met earlier, said with a smile, "We were all waiting for you."

"Sorry, I took a cab, and the traffic was a bit heavy."

Xu Yun smiled, walked over to sit beside Anar Guli, and handed all the bags to her.

"I passed by a mall and just casually bought you a few things. Try them on when you get back."

Anar Guli said happily, "Okay."

Yiyi, who was meeting him for the first time, said to Xu Yun, "You must be Nana’s boyfriend. I just heard them talking about you. Welcome."

"Thank you."

Xu Yun picked up a bag from beside him and handed it to her. "It’s your birthday today. Since it’s our first time meeting, I wasn’t sure what to get, so I just bought something small. I hope you don’t mind."

Just by looking at the Louis Vuitton bag, Yiyi knew it wasn’t cheap. She said very politely, "Thank you."

Seeing this, the other two girls were incredibly envious and half-jokingly said, "Handsome Xu, don’t we get any gifts?"

"Of course you do."

Xu Yun then took out two more identical bags from his side, placed them in front of the girls, and said, "Here."

The two girls were just saying it casually and didn’t expect to actually get anything.

"Thank you, Handsome Xu!"

"A verbal thank you isn’t enough."

Xu Yun said, "From now on, you have to help me by putting in a good word for me with Nana."

"Definitely, definitely!"

Before, they had suspected he wasn’t really a rich heir. But now, seeing that even his casual gifts were from Louis Vuitton, it seemed he wasn’t just putting on an act.

Of the three guys there, besides Yiyi’s boyfriend, the other two were actually interested in Anar Guli.

’This was a girl with an exotic charm that surpassed even Reba and Nazha.’

Now, seeing Xu Yun steal their thunder the moment he arrived and claim to be her boyfriend, they immediately felt displeased.

One of the guys spoke up, "Hey man, care for a drink? Let’s get to know each other."
