Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 100 Tidal Waves of the Heart

"Tao Yun, why are you still taking pictures? You've even snapped the trash cans in the villa. Isn't that enough for your Moments?"

Her best friend and arch-nemesis, Song Xiaoxi, teased her while Tao Yun was taking selfies in the more than 100-square-meter bedroom on the third floor.

The soft bed was very comfortable, with a faint scent of perfume lingering on it, and through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, one could see the sun setting on the western horizon.

Tao Yun, who had just put her phone back in her pocket, glanced at Song Xiaoxi standing at the bedroom door, wanting to come in yet hesitating, and slightly pursed her lips saying:

"If you want to come in, just come in. No one's stopping you. Don't play the innocent."

"You..."

Song Xiaoxi's face turned slightly red at the bedroom door.

She really wanted to go in; that huge bed in the bedroom looked so comfortable—it must be wonderful to lie on it.

But since the bedroom was someone's private space and she hadn't been given permission, Song Xiaoxi naturally couldn't barge in like some other shameless girls.

With a cold snort, not willing to be outdone, Song Xiaoxi sneered:

"Hmph... I'm not as thick-skinned as some people, running into someone's bedroom to take pictures for Moments, saying how they woke up to beautiful sunshine.

You can only dream. On a bed like that, even ten years of living expenses couldn't buy it for you. You could only sleep on it in your dreams."

Feeling that she had scored a point, Song Xiaoxi's face was full of mocking sarcasm, but after waiting a while, she didn't get a retort from Tao Yun and, finding it dull, she pouted and went downstairs.

Only after the sound of footsteps at the door had disappeared did Tao Yun, quietly lying on the big bed, whisper to herself:

"How do you know I haven't spent a night on this bed?"

At that thought, Tao Yun's doll-like face couldn't help but show a touch of shyness.

"I wonder if he noticed the 'fallen petals' on the bedsheet this morning."

The young girl, anxious and uncertain, flipped over and lay on the soft bed, deeply inhaling the faint scent of men's cologne which became even more potent, feeling a slight heat rising within her. Tao Yun got up from the bed in disarray, looking guilty as she left the bedroom.

She had intended to go downstairs, but remembering that annoying ghost, Song Xiaoxi was there too, Tao Yun frowned slightly and changed direction, heading to the third-floor balcony.

The sun in the west had completely set, and the soft lights in the villa's courtyard came on; standing on the third-floor balcony and looking down, the colorful garden was in full view.

Staring blankly at the huge swimming pool in front of the villa, Tao Yun couldn't help but think of that night—the night she agreed to stay with that man by the pool.

She had gotten what she wanted—a bank card with 300,000 RMB in it.

But in truth, what she received was far more than just that.

For instance, the evening dress worth 190,000, the necklace around her neck worth 570,000, or the 990,000 RMB women's watch on her wrist...

Apart from the sandals on her feet that were inconspicuous but still priced at 70,000 RMB, which she hadn't taken off, she had removed all the items worth nearly two million RMB from that night.

It wasn't that she didn't like them or that she wanted to leave any good impression on the man; it was just that Tao Yun hadn't decided yet how to face her roommates.

Even though the moment she chose to stay, she was no longer the ice pure and innocent girl of the past, Tao Yun still did not want the sisters in her dormitory to look down on her. Explore stories on empire

Her arch-nemesis, Song Xiaoxi, had a rich dad, and her monthly allowance was over ten thousand; following normal practices, even if she worked hard for a lifetime, she couldn't catch up to her pace.

As for the campus belle Zhou Yuanyuan, she was a rich young lady who spent money like it was nothing—in the luxury store, swiping hundreds of thousands without batting an eye.

The ugly duckling, Chu Xiner, who used to be the only one inferior to herself, had now become out of reach for her as well. She had a cousin who could spend millions of RMB on a single meal.

Even Zhou Yuanyuan now spoke to her with gentle words and a soft tone.

Therefore, in the entire dormitory, only she was marking time, which was the real reason Tao Yun decided to stay that night.

However, she really didn't want to be looked down upon by the few sisters in the dormitory, so after that night ended, she took off her glamorous evening gown, removed her luxurious necklace, and stripped off her million-dollar watch.

The goal was to avoid anyone noticing her transformation.

Even when he invited her to the villa this time, Tao Yun went to great lengths to coax the other two roommates to come along.

This way, no one would be suspicious, right?

Tao Yun also knew that she couldn't keep it a secret for too long, but in her heart, she still hadn't figured out how to face it.

With a soft sigh, she was about to turn and leave when the lights of a vehicle in the distance shone this way.

Her gaze shifted to the road in the distance, where a convoy of more than a dozen luxury cars was approaching from afar. The steps she had already taken halted, and then she just stood there quietly on the third-floor balcony.

Without knowing why, a sense of anticipation flickered in her heart. As to what exactly she was anticipating, Tao Yun herself didn't know.

Then, as the long procession of cars drew closer, Tao Yun found her heartbeat quickening.

The gates of the courtyard were already open. When the first opulent Bentley turned the corner into the villa's courtyard, Tao Yun touched her own cheek.

It was burning hot.

No more, no less, exactly twelve luxury cars, Tao Yun counted them clearly.

Then, as the convoy stopped and a series of car doors opening rang out, it snapped Tao Yun out of her daze on the third-floor balcony.

Looking down, a number of tall men kept stepping out of the cars, and when dozens of sturdy and tall men dispersed at the villa's entrance, the middle-aged butler opened the door of the familiar Rolls-Royce.

The moment the young man with the golden glasses on his nose stepped out of the car, dozens of people around focused their attention on him.

"Mr. Chu, dinner is ready. Miss Xin'er and a few friends are waiting in the living room," the middle-aged butler said, bowing respectfully.

As he bowed, the handsome young man standing straight, suddenly turned around and instructed his bodyguard,

"Shou Bo, take the brothers to have a good meal at Bafang International. Later, I will have a word with Bingxue, you help me take good care of everyone."

His authoritative and deep voice fell, and dozens of tall men bowed their heads to the young man at the same time. At that moment, Tao Yun felt her heart beating wildly.

She genuinely felt as if she had been electrified, her whole being tingling inside.

It all seemed as if it was a play out of a TV drama.

The young man, who was at the center of everyone's attention, was her first man. She should be proud to have such an outstanding partner. What was there to hide?

Even if her close friends found out that she had such a strong and handsome boyfriend, they would only be jealous.

Watching the young man welcomed by rows of maids and walking into the living room, Tao Yun took a deep breath, turned her steps around, and this time, feeling relaxed and cheerful, she briskly walked downstairs.

She was somewhat eager to catch the faint scent of his cologne.
