Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Sixty Million

Mu Ran lay on the bed, gloomily scrolling through her social media. After a while, she found it boring and went back to work. Even at three in the morning, she couldn’t sleep, so she simply contacted Xiao Yu’an abroad: “What are you doing?”

“Drinking by the roadside.”

It was Xiao Yu’an’s first time dealing with foreigners, discussing cooperation with them.

The person he was dealing with was a wealthy businessman who had climbed up from the bottom. Knowing Xiao Yu’an was a rich kid, he deliberately took him to drink by the roadside to test his acceptance level.

Xiao Yu’an found it really hard to express.

He felt like every man assumed he was a delicate rich kid.

“Well, go ahead and drink then.” Mu Ran didn’t want to disturb him while he was having fun.

Exiting the WeChat interface, Mu Ran planned to read some comics to brew sleepiness, when suddenly a text alerted her that over sixty million had been transferred into her bank account!

What!!!

“Who gave me so much money.”

Mu Ran sprang up, preparing to call the bank’s customer service.

Then she saw Xiao Yu’an message saying, “I felt like you were a bit down today. I won some money betting on horses, so take it and buy something.”

Mu Ran was dumbfounded.

Is this called ’some’?

Xiao Yu’an said, “The money I won betting on horses yesterday was used to invest in a racetrack in New Province. Don’t worry, I’m not addicted to gambling, just playing casually for a couple of days.”

Mu Ran paused before asking, “How do you know my bank account number?”

Xiao Yu’an replied, “Last time we were drinking, I went through your purse. I was planning to take off your makeup as suggested online, but I couldn’t find any makeup remover. Instead, I saw the bank card and memorized the account number.”

“Then why give me so much!” Mu Ran scratched her head, she had only given him a small gift, and he immediately throws sixty million at her. How should she respond?

“Don’t modern people say they like to give money?” Xiao Yu’an was puzzled and sent a yellow face emoji with a question mark.

“But it doesn’t have to be that much.” Mu Ran was helpless; she didn’t lack the sixty million, but it was indeed a large sum.

“It’s fine, just take it.” Xiao Yu’an replied while drinking with foreign executives, seeing his curious look, he explained: “I’m checking in with my girlfriend.”

His counterpart immediately showed an understanding look and responded in English, “You continue, I’ll go find some interesting young people to chat with elsewhere. We’ll resume later.”

“Okay.” Xiao Yu’an casually called Mu Ran, “Getting ready to sleep?”

“I was going to sleep, but now I’m wide awake because of the sixty million.” Mu Ran really didn’t know whether to be happy or unhappy.

“It’s not a big deal, it can only buy a few of your favorite sports cars. You don’t lack this money, I just want to cheer you up, not burden you.” Xiao Yu’an leaned lazily against the bar’s doorpost, his deep black eyes, at this moment, were peaceful and tender, gazing at the crescent moon in the sky, silently expressing delicate tenderness.

This scene was captured by a foreign photographer, the man’s coat fluttering in the wind, his brows clear and defined, his dark eyes tender, exuding a noble and majestic aura, handsome beyond measure.

The aristocratic demeanor is their favorite style.

Xiao Yu’an noticed being photographed and gave a cold glance that immediately pressured the photographer to obediently approach.

Xiao Yu’an casually pointed to a stool, signaling him to wait.

He continued listening to the phone.

Mu Ran was saying, “Alright, I’ll accept it, but is horse betting really that profitable?”

“Private racetrack, on-site betting and racing, my instincts are sharp, so I won a bit.” Xiao Yu’an’s sensitivity to horses and riders is unmatched. If someone kept playing with him, he’d be the richest man in the world.

“Can you bring out the money?”

“…Got chased once.” Xiao Yu’an’s tone was casual, not forgetting to explain, “I’m fine now.”

Mu Ran was silent, “I don’t know why, I wasn’t very interested initially, but hearing it’s so thrilling made me suddenly want to.”

“Don’t. Be a legal citizen, no gambling or drugs.” Xiao Yu’an advised her.

Despite lacking inner strength, his reflexes are unmatched by many, coupled with his adept use of modern weapons, he’s fearless of pursuit.

And Mu Ran…

A little weakling who gets exhausted after walking half a day, incapable of escaping.

“Are you looking down on me?” Mu Ran questioned.

Xiao Yu’an denied, “No, I’m just thinking they can’t afford to play, I won over a billion, and they wanted to take the money back, too narrow-minded.”

Mu Ran: “…”

If I were the boss.

I’d want to do the same.

But as the beneficiary of sixty million, she still agreed, “Yes, too narrow-minded! If they were broader-minded, I’d join you to soak up some luck and win several minor goals.”

Xiao Yu’an chuckled, finding her really adorable, “How’s work going domestically?”

“Other progress is quite fast, the female lead’s progress is rather slow.” Mu Ran planned to find her sister-in-law tomorrow, aiming to secure Mao Ziyang before the variety show starts.

“Is it exhausting? Still not asleep at this hour?”

“Not really, just… miss you.” Mu Ran suddenly shifted the topic.

Xiao Yu’an knew she was lying but couldn’t help feeling happy inside, “Really?”

“Of course, how could I not miss having such a handsome boyfriend?” The more Mu Ran said, the more justified she felt, “Miss you so much, dreaming about you, wanting to see you, wanting to bring you home.”

“Stop.” Xiao Yu’an admitted.

He’s still somewhat traditional.

Can’t handle such fiery confessions.

“Hahahahaha…”

Mu Ran laughed heartily.

Xiao Yu’an helplessly shifted the topic, “Today I also bought a lakeside villa, with a boat, swing set, perfect for barbecues, it’s quite fun. Anytime you want a vacation, you’re welcome to come.”

“Sure. When are you coming back? I’ll pick you up then.”

“Not so soon, at least a month.” Xiao Yu’an found making money from his countrymen inexplicably awkward, with an unwarranted sense of guilt.

But abroad, it doesn’t!

Thus, he planned to conduct business overseas. As for academics, the whole school was invested in by the Xiao Family, graduating was a matter of minutes, nothing to worry about.

“Alright, I’ll visit you when I can.” Mu Ran yawned, feeling sleepy, “I’m going to sleep now, thanks for the sixty million, love you.”

“Your love is so perfunctory.” Xiao Yu’an commented, “Go to sleep, remember to eat a good breakfast tomorrow.”

“Okay, okay, hanging up.”

“Alright.”

Xiao Yu’an hung up the phone and waved at the photographer.

The photographer explained, “If I post your picture on Instagram, it would get at least hundreds of thousands of followers.”

“No need.”

Xiao Yu’an deleted the photos.

He felt no inclination regarding his handsome photos.

Then he grabbed his wine glass and went to find his business partner.

Leaving the photographer very regretful, what a man with regal charm!
