I Am Really Rich - Novelbike

The rain had intensified at the entrance of the press conference venue.

All the reporters had left, leaving Lin Yi standing at the backstage door.

He watched Shi Xing’s retreating figure, the graceful woman who had left with a smile after delivering that parting shot. He stood rooted to the spot…

It felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.

Even his feet felt like something was dragging him into an icy abyss.

“Next, it’s you.”

The image of Guan Tian being dragged out in a frenzy, with all her paths cut off, kept replaying in his mind. Lin Yi finally couldn’t hold it in any longer and shakily took out his phone.

His contact list and social media were still filled with actors, directors, and businessmen.

Yes, these were his connections. Unlike Guan Tian, who only had him to rely on, he had many connections.

“It won’t be me. It definitely won’t be me.”

He clutched his phone tightly in panic, “It won’t be me. I won’t end up like Guan Tian! It won’t!”

The Maybach cruised along the wide road, heading towards Huashi Media in the city center.

“President Shi,” Wen Xiangling turned with a smile, “Are you really going to visit Huashi?”

Shi Xing replied with great interest, “Of course.”

She had wanted to visit Huashi for a long time but never had the time.

Just as Guan Tian’s matter was resolved, she decided to come for a tour. Besides, there was another reason-

[Host, with Guan Tian’s threat eliminated, your happiness value is temporarily stable at 56.]

“How did I manage to come up from -198 without committing suicide?”

[After your first confrontation with Lin Yi, the happiness value shot up from -198 to 2, preventing the suicide.]

Shi Xing squinted her eyes.

During her first confrontation with Lin Yi, she had been a bit worried.

After all, according to the System’s calculations, the original host’s happiness value depended on Lin Yi. Plus, she herself was teetering on the edge of suicide. Unexpectedly-

Just a small confrontation had increased the original host’s happiness value so much.

Forget about the “I choose to leave with tears, remembering your favorite song and candy” nonsense…

That doesn’t exist.

Giving a scumbag a few good slaps-

That’s the most satisfying thing.

[Now the original host’s calculation formula aligns with yours, so before eliminating Lin Yi as a major threat, you can do things you enjoy to increase your happiness value.]

“Things I enjoy…”

Shi Xing pondered for a moment and decisively chose to find Wen Xiangling and visit Huashi.

Huashi’s building was in the city center, a 38-story skyscraper, with Wen Xiangling’s office at the top.

Upon arriving at Huashi’s entrance, Wen Xiangling opened the car door for Shi Xing and led her inside.

The exterior of the Huashi Building was magnificent, and the interior was bright and spacious. As soon as Shi Xing entered, all eyes were on her-

“Am I seeing things? President Wen actually brought someone for a tour!”

“Huh? Could it be his girlfriend? Look, he’s got his arm around her waist!”

“I don’t know, but the woman next to President Wen is really beautiful…”

The staff at the front desk and the employees or actors walking around the hall started whispering.

Wen Xiangling smiled and turned his head, “Don’t mind us. I’m just showing President Shi around.”

His words caused another wave of exclamations.

“President Shi? Isn’t that the one from the live press conference earlier?”

“Hey? So she really is his girlfriend?”

“She’s even more beautiful in person than on the live stream. President Wen, are you bringing your girlfriend home to meet the family?”

“Your company is quite amusing,” Shi Xing couldn’t help but laugh as they walked through the hall, still hearing the discussions behind them. “They’re saying you’re bringing me home to meet the family.”

“Well, they’re not wrong.”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m your man, so bringing you back is like bringing you home.”

Shi Xing was amused.

Yes, Wen Xiangling was her kept man.

She turned her head with a smile, casually glancing around the first floor of Huashi.

As the top talent agency with the best resources, everything at Huashi was running smoothly. The first floor had a café, a gym, and a health center…

“Ah, isn’t that President Shi!”

Shi Xing looked up.

A doctor stood at the entrance of the health center, smiling broadly as he called out to her. Upon closer inspection, he seemed familiar.

It seemed like he was the one from the resort hotel last time…

“Doctor Huang?”

“Oh, President Shi remembers me!”

“Doctor Huang, you work at Huashi’s health center?”

“Yes,” Doctor Huang replied quickly, “President Shi, what brings you here this time?”

Shi Xing glanced at Wen Xiangling beside her, “I’m here for a tour.”

“Oh, I thought you and President Wen were here specifically to see me.”

Shi Xing was puzzled, “See you?”

“Yes! There are many doctors at Huashi’s health center, and the actors or executives have their designated doctors. Last time, I treated President Wen, so I thought you were here for a follow-up.”

“No need to worry,” Shi Xing said, “President Wen has fully recovered.”

“That’s great to hear!” Doctor Huang immediately smiled and said loudly, “In the future, don’t play so intensely! Using a tie for bondage-”

“It’s too harmful to the body!!!!”

The entire first floor, whether it was the café on the left, the gym on the right, or even the front desk in the hall-

Fell into a deathly silence.

The only sound came from the young intern doctor beside Doctor Huang.

She opened her mouth and uttered a few words-

“President Shi and President Wen, do they like bondage play?”

These words echoed throughout the quiet first floor.

Shi Xing’s face darkened.

“What’s wrong, President Shi? You don’t look well,” Doctor Huang quickly comforted, “I told you not to overdo it… Bondage can be fun, but it’s not…”

Shi Xing picked up an empty water bottle beside her and threw it.

Doctor Huang fell to the ground with a thud.

“I’ve said it dozens of times, Wen Xiangling and I don’t have that kind of fetish. Why can’t you understand?” Shi Xing said angrily, “Are you Wen Xiangling’s relative? How did you even get hired?”

Wen Xiangling laughed.

Shi Xing’s delicate face was pale with anger, her beautiful eyes barely concealing her fury, looking quite different from her usual calm and stunning self.

Wen Xiangling liked it very much.

He glanced at the crowd that had gathered to watch and said with a smile, “Alright, everyone, disperse. It was just a misunderstanding.”

The onlookers exchanged glances and slowly dispersed.

He walked over to Shi Xing and said softly, “Still angry?”

Shi Xing glanced at the fallen Doctor Huang and turned her head in displeasure.

“Alright, don’t be mad,” Wen Xiangling said with a smile, wrapping his arm around Shi Xing’s waist and whispering in her ear, “How about we go to my office? I think there-”

“We can do something more interesting.”
