Chapter 402: Chapter 192: Fine, Let’s See Who Lasts Longer
"Whatever he does for a living, he’s no ordinary person,"
the man said. "Did you see the watch on his wrist?"
"I didn’t notice."
"I saw it just now."
The man said with envy, "He was wearing a limited edition Patek Philippe Sky Moon Tourbillon. The official website lists it for over three million."
The woman was speechless.
If she’d only suspected his status before, now she was basically certain he was a super-rich guy.
’If he’s that rich, then the guy I was chatting with in the pool earlier must be loaded too, right?’
’Damn, I can’t believe I missed such a great opportunity!’
The woman looked at the man beside her, her stomach churning with regret. She had truly picked up a sesame seed only to drop a watermelon.
Xu Yun and Xino returned to their respective rooms.
A short while later, Xino arrived with some clothes, having just finished a shower.
She wore a loose, open-collared white blouse, turning the previously hidden view of her neckline into a tantalizing glimpse.
A hint of snowy white skin was faintly visible, exceptionally alluring.
Below, a pair of long, slender legs were wrapped in sexy white stockings. She was barefoot, her perfect feet resting lightly on the floor.
’Those feet are really something else.’
Heaven is fair. While it hadn’t given her a huge rack, it had blessed her with a pair of exquisite feet that could drive a man wild.
Xu Yun admitted that while he was a lecher and had a bit of a foot fetish, he had never felt such a strong desire to hold a woman’s feet in his hands before.
Xino noticed Xu Yun’s burning gaze on her and a slow smile curved her lips.
’This is the battle outfit I bought just for this occasion.’
She’d read online that men have zero resistance to this particular ensemble. She decided to test it out today, and the results were clearly obvious.
To provoke Xu Yun further, Xino deliberately raised her hands, picking up a t-shirt and holding it up against his body to size it.
She said, "This shirt seems a little big."
"Is it?"
Xu Yun stared at a certain something and nodded. "It does seem a little big."
...
Xino blushed, having known all along where his eyes were focused.
"Then let’s try this one."
She picked up another shirt and held it up to Xu Yun.
"This one’s not bad."
After trying on two more, Xu Yun went to get Xino a glass of water.
Xino sat on the sofa and said deliberately, "Is the AC not on in your room? It’s so hot."
"Hot? I don’t feel it."
"But I really do feel hot."
Xino complained, then suddenly undid two buttons on her blouse.
The already loose blouse became even more so.
Before, Xu Yun could only catch a faint glimpse of her snowy white skin, but now he could clearly see the lace trim of her flesh-colored bra.
Xu Yun took in her enchanting expression, her seductive little movements, and her small feet, which she’d slipped out of her shoes at some point.
Watching her clumsy performance, he thought she was really putting herself through the wringer.
He walked over and, without a word, put his hands on her.
Her waist was incredibly soft, and he could clearly feel the smoothness of her skin even through the fabric.
His other hand had, at some point, found its way under her thigh, gently squeezing her skin.
In the next instant, he swept Xino up into his arms, holding her by the waist.
Xino nestled in his embrace, her heart racing as she felt his fiery hand on her thigh.
But a triumphant smile flashed in her eyes as she feigned alarm. "Xu Yun, what are you doing? Put me down."
Xu Yun couldn’t help but laugh. "Alright, I know girls are supposed to act reserved, but you shouldn’t force it if you’re not good at it. If you’re not embarrassed, I’m getting embarrassed for you."
...
At his words, Xino’s face flushed red instantly.
She whispered shyly, "I learned this online. The internet says you men all like this kind of playful, hard-to-get woman."
"The internet is full of crap."
Xu Yun said, "It’s a bunch of female armchair generals who’ve never seen a real battlefield. Don’t believe them. Just be yourself."
With that, he shifted Xino’s position and sat back down on the sofa, holding her in his lap.
Xino asked, confused, "What are you doing?"
"Watching TV."
Xu Yun said with an innocent look, "It’s so early. Can you even sleep?"
Xino was speechless.
’Wait, I’ve already come this far, shouldn’t you be carrying me to the bedroom right now?’
’Why are we still in the living room!’
’Hmph, he’s doing this on purpose.’ Xino ground her teeth, fuming.
’Fine, let’s see who can last longer!’
And so, Xino sat in Xu Yun’s lap as they started watching TV.
But Xu Yun’s hands gave her no chance to calm down. They rested on her thighs, sometimes kneading, sometimes pressing, sometimes slowly caressing with his fingertips.
One could say his handiwork was in no way inferior to certain "teachers" from the movies.
Xino looked up. "What are you doing now?"
"Giving you a leg massage."
Xu Yun smiled. "It’s free. No charge."

「In Jiangcheng, in her apartment.」
After cleaning her apartment, Jiang Peiyao was looking over the detailed files of an orphanage.
Her younger brother was already asleep in the next room.
Back in Rongcheng, after more than a month of specialist treatment, Jiang Ping’an’s condition had basically stabilized, provided he didn’t stop taking his imported miracle drugs.
She had returned by plane with her brother just yesterday.
A beautiful woman named Yu Xuan, who said she was Xu Yun’s secretary, had picked them up from the airport.
’It’s not surprising. Xu Yun has always been surrounded by beautiful women.’
The reason she had returned early was because that woman had called her two days ago to tell her something.
Xu Yun had established a charitable organization, and she was to be the one in charge. As soon as she came back, she was to start taking over.
She was quite taken aback to suddenly be in charge of a charity.
But since Xu Yun had arranged it, she naturally had no reason to refuse, nor would she.
She didn’t understand how to run or operate a charitable organization, but she could learn.
Since Xu Yun had entrusted this to her, she was determined to do a good job.
Besides, that woman named Yu Xuan had also said she would help her manage things for the time being, and the tasks were very simple.
She was just supposed to use the organization’s money to help those in need.
The first recipients of their aid would be a children’s orphanage outside the city.
Jiang Peiyao wasn’t stupid. She knew this was a test from Xu Yun; he wanted to see if she was up to the task.
That’s why she had checked her brother out of the hospital and returned to Jiangcheng ahead of schedule.
Jiang Peiyao had wanted to surprise Xu Yun, but his phone had been unreachable since yesterday.
Even his secretary, Yu Xuan, couldn’t get through to him.
And no one knew where he had gone.
Moreover, it seemed that none of the other women around him knew where Xu Yun went either.
In an instant, it was as if everyone had lost contact with him.
He had simply vanished.
Just as everyone was starting to worry, Song Xiaowei couldn’t hold it in any longer and told them not to worry, that he had apparently gone on a trip.
As for where exactly he went and who he was with, she could only lie and say she didn’t know.
This piece of information caused the other women’s opinion of Song Xiaowei to change slightly.
’Why is she the only one who knows about this?’
’Could it be that her status in Xu Yun’s heart is more important than theirs?’
Even Su Mu, who normally never got jealous, began to feel uncertain and started to see Song Xiaowei in a new light.
Although Xu Yun was currently away from Jiangcheng, his company, his fitness center, and his charitable organization still had to keep running.
Each of them had her own career, and none of them wanted to lose to the others. They all wanted to do a good job with the tasks at hand.
Jiang Peiyao considered herself not the most capable among the women around Xu Yun, but she knew she could grow.
Before, her attitude had been to just stay by Xu Yun’s side for as long as she could. But after he came to Rongcheng to see her, her mindset changed.
She no longer had a "go with the flow" mentality; instead, she wanted to fight, to strive to stay by Xu Yun’s side and not be abandoned by him.
To do that, she had to prove her worth and make Xu Yun feel that he needed her.
But for a woman to prove her value to a man, she could never rely on her body or a pretty face.
Because in five or ten years, the woman will grow old, while the man will only become more distinguished.
He would never lack for young, beautiful women by his side.
Only by becoming outstanding in some other area, by becoming a woman who wouldn’t drag him down, could she stop worrying about being replaced by someone else.
Besides, doing charity work was something she genuinely liked and was willing to do.
