The Rich Man's Life Begins with a Comeback

Chapter 31 Separation
Late at night, Huatai Jiayuan.

Luo Xiwen gently closed the laptop in front of her. Since returning home at seven o'clock, she hadn't even changed her clothes before sitting in front of the computer and systematically summarizing and organizing the various high-end properties in Beichun.

After four full hours, she now has a basic understanding of the high-end real estate market in Beichun.

"Um……"

Luo Xiwen took off her work glasses and stretched her arms.

Picking up his phone, Luo Xiwen looked at the numerous unread messages on WeChat.

Aside from Gu Heng's reply, all the other unread messages came from her mother.

Luo Xiwen casually opened the voice message sent by his mother and got up to walk towards the bathroom.

"Xiwen, why haven't you been going home on weekends lately? How are your colleagues at your new job? How's your boss treating you?"

……

Luo Xiwen stood in front of the bathroom mirror, gently wiping her face with a cotton pad soaked in makeup remover.

……

"Xiwen, that Xiao Li that your Uncle Gao introduced you to a while ago, have you kept in touch since then? He works at the Beichun Archives Bureau. Although it's a low-level department, he's a real civil servant."

……

As Luo Xiwen listened to his mother's voice message, a hint of helplessness appeared on his face.

really……

They couldn't stop talking about blind dates.

Cool water rinsed her face repeatedly. After the delicate makeup was removed, her face was still flawless, with fair and smooth skin like a freshly peeled boiled egg.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she couldn't help but think of all the girls she had met that day while following Gu Heng.

They are all incredibly young and unique.

Some are innocent, some are aloof, some are sensual, some are radiant...

In comparison, her competitiveness seems to be really not that great.

Luo Xiwen bit her lip lightly, but a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.

……

“My dear daughter, I know you have high standards. If you were still a 22-year-old fresh out of college, I certainly wouldn’t nag you so much. But you’re already 27 this year, almost 30…”

……

Loshvin took off his champagne-colored shirt, revealing a pure white corset underneath.

Unzip the back and gently remove it.

Originally a good girl, she instantly turned into a "good" girl.

"call……"

With his restraints removed, Luo Xiwen breathed a sigh of relief.

What is an advantage for other women is a burden for Losiwen, who works in banking.

If she doesn't wear a corset, she wears a regular bra and then a shirt.

No matter how dignified she is, she always gives others the impression of being quite flirtatious.

When she first started working, this issue caused her a lot of trouble. Later, to avoid unnecessary trouble, she began to habitually wear a corset to work.

"like……"

"The men all really like this one."

Looking at herself in the mirror, Luo Xiwen's mind inexplicably flashed back to Gu Heng's handsome face, and two alluring blushes appeared on her dignified and pretty face.

"My dear daughter, the essence of life is simplicity. Everyone wants to be rich and powerful, but how many can actually achieve that? The current social environment isn't good. Finding a husband with a stable job in the public sector will at least guarantee a stable income regardless of circumstances..."

……

Listening to her mother's nagging, Luo Xiwen silently took off all her clothes and then walked barefoot to the shower.

Slightly hot water poured down from the showerhead, quickly soaking her entire body.

"Ordinary and uneventful..."

As Luo Xiwen listened to those four words repeatedly in her mother's voice message, what came to mind was the image of Gu Heng sitting on the sofa in the private bank's VIP room today, with her boss greeting her with a smile.

But it showed Gu Heng casually spending four million to buy a top-of-the-line luxury car.

However, it depicts Gu Heng spending money lavishly in numerous luxury stores at Zhuozhan Shopping Center.

Some say that the cruelest thing about the show "Metamorphosis" is that it gives children who originally lived in remote mountain villages a short period of life that is not their social class, and then kicks them back into the mountains.

Nowadays, Luo Xiwen feels like a child living in a mountain village in the documentary "The Metamorphosis".

Before she started working at the private bank, although she had many large clients with savings of tens of millions, she never had a clear concept of the lives of the wealthy.

That is, until she came to the private bank and became Gu Heng's exclusive client manager.

In just one day, her world felt like it was collapsing.

A single piece of clothing costs her a month's salary.

A casual visit to any brand-name store could cost her a year's salary.

Following in Gu Heng's footsteps, she truly experienced the daily life of an A9-level tycoon.

As night fell, she returned to her cramped one-bedroom apartment.

The stark contrast gave her a strong sense of disconnect.

If Gu Heng were a greasy middle-aged man or a frail old man, she might not have felt this way.

Although she longed for upward mobility and a life of luxury, she had to admit that some money was simply not something she could covet.

Whenever she sees a young and beautiful girl snuggling in the arms of a pot-bellied, greasy middle-aged man, or when she sees a girl being intimate with a man older than her father, she thinks that if they can earn that kind of money, then they deserve it.

She simply couldn't stand it at all; just thinking about it made her feel nauseous.

But unfortunately...

Gu Heng was such a young and handsome man, and the wealth he possessed was the most substantial client she had ever encountered since she started working.

How could she not be tempted?
How could this not stir her heart?
"Click..."

Loshvin raised his hand and turned off the shower.

After drying her hair and body with a bath towel, she began cleaning up the water stains in the bathroom, while her mother's voice message was still playing.

……

“Honey, I’ve told you so much, and I hope you’ll take it to heart. If you don’t like that Xiao Li, Aunt Zhang mentioned a nice single young man the other day. He works for the State Grid in Beichun, and I heard his family is quite well-off. I’ll ask Aunt Zhang to connect you with him another day…”

……

Luo Xiwen listened to her mother's nagging with a blank expression. After changing into her pajamas, she opened the Helena gift box that Gu Heng had given her.

A green bottle, a black bandage.

This was the first time in Luo Xiwen's life that she had the opportunity to personally experience such a high-end treatment costing a full five thousand yuan.

"Not even trying..."

"How could I accept this?"

Luo Xiwen murmured as if in a daze, but his bewildered gaze gradually hardened at that moment...
