A pampered young lady from a wealthy family is reborn, choosing a rich wife over a rich man.
Chapter 025 Marrying into a Wealthy Family, No Interest
Meng Zhixue sipped her soup, glanced at Wei Hongyu, and looked at her with a mixture of sympathy and helplessness.
Wei Hongyu snapped again: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"What you're talking about isn't a secret, is it?" Meng Zhixue said. "I've known for a long time that Young Master Zhou has a white moonlight. If it weren't for his face, Mrs. Zhou wouldn't have given me such a generous contract, and Young Master Zhou wouldn't have taken such good care of me."
"You went to work as a nanny at the Zhou family's house with Aunt Zhou's permission?" Wei Hongyu was even angrier, and retorted, "Aren't you jealous of Bai Xue? Don't you hate that Brother Zhou Yu is using you as a substitute to remember Bai Xue? All the kindness he shows you now is fake; it's not because of you at all, don't you know that?"
She felt that her question would surely shatter the facade of calm on Meng Zhixue's face.
but……
"What's there to be jealous of?" Meng Zhixue retorted. "Zhou Yu has a beloved white moonlight; the one who's heartbroken isn't me, but you, right?"
"..." Wei Hongyu was stunned, then said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"
"Did I say something wrong?" Meng Zhixue asked in surprise. "You're always calling him 'Brother Zhou Yu,' but aren't you the one who's secretly annoyed that he has a 'white moonlight' (a term for someone who is unattainable in love)?"
"You have no worries about food and clothing, and you are protected by your parents and sister. You can act recklessly and only think about love and romance. You think I am the same as you."
"But I'm sorry, I'm not. I have no jealousy or hatred towards the Bai Xue you mentioned. If you tell me where her grave is now, I'd even be willing to visit her grave on Qingming Festival to express my gratitude."
"One generation plants the trees so another can enjoy the shade. If it weren't for Young Master Zhou still having feelings for her, how could he have helped me? I'm filled with gratitude!"
Wei Hongyu was deeply shocked after hearing Meng Zhixue's words.
Coming to her senses, she gritted her teeth, glanced at the comments in the live stream on her phone, and then looked at Meng Zhixue.
"Then swear! Say you'll never bother Brother Zhou Yu, and that you never intend to use your looks to marry into the Zhou family and rise to prominence, or you'll suffer a terrible death!"
"..." Meng Zhixue was truly speechless. "You want me to swear an oath, and I'll swear one?"
Wei Hongyu gritted her teeth: "If you dare to swear it, I'll give you 50,000 yuan!"
fifty thousand?!
Meng Zhixue's almond-shaped eyes suddenly lit up when she looked at Wei Hongyu. She no longer felt that Wei Hongyu was a nuisance; instead, she seemed to see a glittering, money-giving child.
Within her limited moral compass, she could accept the money!
She immediately said, "Send the money first!"
Wei Hongyu snorted in dissatisfaction, but still resigned herself to picking up her phone to transfer the money.
Firstly, she didn't believe that Meng Zhixue was uninterested in marrying into a wealthy family, and that making such a rash vow would be punished by heaven.
Secondly, she also had a secret thought: what if... what if Brother Zhou Yu had feelings for Meng Zhixue and heard Meng Zhixue swear that he would definitely not like her anymore!
My phone vibrated.
When Meng Zhixue saw that the 50,000 yuan had been transferred, she lost her impatience with Wei Hongyu.
She raised her hand decisively and said with a righteous expression, "I swear, I will never pester Zhou Yu, and I will absolutely not marry into the Zhou family. If I break this oath, may I die a horrible death!"
Wei Hongyu was satisfied, but couldn't help asking curiously, "Is it because you don't like Zhou Yu's type that you're not interested in him? Or is it because you don't want to marry into a wealthy family? Wow, that's impossible, right?"
With income coming in, Meng Zhixue was in a good mood and didn't mind saying more to reassure her: "Don't worry, Zhou Yu and I are completely innocent. I will absolutely not let any filthy romantic feelings taint our pure employer-employee relationship!"
Wei Hongyu: "..."
Are you out of your mind? Did you say it backwards?
Meng Zhixue added, "I have no interest in marrying into a wealthy family."
"Why?" Wei Hongyu asked hastily, then glanced at her sideways. "Oh, you're not saying you want to be independent and not take dirty money, are you? If you could hook up with a rich and generous playboy and make money while lying down, would you want to be a corporate slave? Don't lie!"
"In your eyes, are there only two options: marrying a rich man or being a corporate slave?" Meng Zhixue asked rhetorically.
Wei Hongyu: "...Huh? Is there something else?"
Meng Zhixue said, "Of course! Being with a rich wife is much better than being with a rich guy! You're beautiful, you smell good, you're gentle and generous, how are you not better than a man? And you don't have to sleep with him! I just pray that God will open his eyes and let me meet one beautiful and kind-hearted rich wife after another like Sister Ying, for which I'm willing to remain unmarried for life!"
Wei Hongyu: "Huh?! Wait...wait, not marrying for life isn't enough, you have to swear you'll never have any romantic entanglements with rich men in your entire life!"
"..." Meng Zhixue rolled her eyes at her, annoyed, and said, "That's a different price!"
"How can you be so greedy?" Wei Hongyu said, displeased.
Meng Zhixue glanced at her: "If you say anything more annoying, I'll tell Sister Ying that you let me steal Zhou Yu's shirt..."
"Aaaaaah!" Wei Hongyu suddenly screamed, interrupting her, and quickly grabbed her phone. "Tell me, how much money do you want!"
Meng Zhixue exclaimed "Wow!" in her heart and began to think.
Are gold coins really that easy to obtain?
Ten thousand or twenty thousand? Sister Ying is so kind, it seems a bit unfair to take advantage of Wei Hongyu, that fool? But it's rare to find someone so rich and foolishly generous…
Suddenly, the door to the private room opened.
"What are you talking about?" Wei Suying asked with a smile as she entered the room carrying Xinxin.
Wei Hongyu sat up straight in a second, forcing an awkward laugh: "No! Um... we just chatted casually and made plans to go shopping for clothes together!"
Feeling incredibly guilty, she hurriedly ended the live stream and turned her phone face down on the table.
Meng Zhixue glanced at her, feeling that there was something strange about her, but still nodded and said, "Yes."
For the sake of 50,000 yuan, I'll just cooperate a little.
What she didn't know was that while she "comforted" Wei Hongyu's heart, her sincere words were like sharp thorns, piercing the heart of someone with ulterior motives.
……
Azure Ocean Golf Course.
Zhou Yu calmly took a sip of red wine, his gaze indifferent as he looked at the boundless water and the undulating mountains in the distance, making it impossible to discern his emotions at that moment.
He seemed oblivious to the subtle glances he received from others.
"You caused this mess, aren't you going to take responsibility for cleaning it up?" Wen Jueming nudged Xie Lingfeng with his elbow, almost knocking Xie Lingfeng, who was swirling his wine glass and acting all high and mighty, to the ground.
Xie Lingfeng steadied himself, his narrow phoenix eyes full of innocence: "I just saw that idiot Wei Hongyu started a live stream and invited everyone to watch the fun. Who knew she would mention that silly... girl Bai Xue?"
Zhou Yu gave him a brief glance, and Xie Lingfeng immediately changed his tune, switching from English to Chinese.
Wen Jueming wanted to wipe his sweat again.
He shouldn't have come to this lousy stadium today!
As it turns out, there was also a fool who couldn't read between the lines and couldn't even understand human speech.
In the strange and awkward atmosphere, a young man dressed in a full bespoke suit, with his hair slicked back and looking dashing, approached Zhou Yu and began to flatter him.
"Mr. Zhou, is that woman in the live stream your new favorite? She's quite pretty, has a great figure, and must be a lot of fun to play with. It's just that she's not honest, saying she doesn't want to be a gold digger or marry into a wealthy family, hahaha..."
The laughter abruptly stopped.
The young master, dressed in fine clothes, hastily wiped the red wine off his face, looking disheveled. He stared blankly at Zhou Yu, as if he had been punched hard, his face flushed red.
Zhou Yu put down his empty wine glass, looked at him coldly, and asked, "Is it funny?"
