Chapter 33 The Mermaid Takes the Hook

As Hu Yixin expected, Lin Weiwei did indeed comment on her WeChat Moments.

"Xin Xin is so lucky, and Mr. Huang is very generous too."

Seeing such a bland comment from "best friend," Hu Yixin couldn't help but purse her lips.

Women understand women best, and Hu Yixin didn't believe Lin Weiwei was really that calm.

that's the truth.

Lin Weiwei just finished an online live-stream promotion. With her outstanding beauty and figure, she also has hundreds of thousands of fans on Douyin.

Besides offline photo shoots, she also occasionally takes on online promotional orders.

The 80 yuan in savings was accumulated little by little in this way.

She had just finished removing her makeup, feeling a little tired, and was lying on the sofa with a face mask on, scrolling through her phone, when she came across Hu Yixin's WeChat Moments.

Click on the nine-grid photos, and you'll see top-quality ingredients, an elegant environment, and the faint silhouette of Huang Tian.

Especially the photo of Hu Yixin with a sweet smile, posing with Huang Tian in a luxurious restaurant in the background, felt like tiny needles gently pricking her heart.

Lin Weiwei was very familiar with this Japanese restaurant, in particular.

A rich second-generation guy once wanted to pursue her and specially brought her here to check it out.

Although nothing came of it, the experience of that meal remains vivid in my memory to this day.

Especially that rich kid at the time, who kept bragging that this restaurant was extremely difficult to book, but they only ate the most ordinary set meal.

The photos posted by Hu Yixin, featuring top-quality ingredients and a central position on the counter, subtly indicate the high standard of this dinner.

I exited WeChat Moments and tossed my phone aside.

Lin Weiwei looked up at the ceiling. Her face under the mask was fair and firm, but her eyes gradually became vacant.

Take the upscale apartment she's currently renting, a two-bedroom, one-living room unit, for example. The monthly rent is seven thousand yuan, which takes up a significant portion of her income.

It's both to maintain appearances and to avoid being looked down upon.

It's also to make myself more comfortable and closer to those potential opportunities.

To put it bluntly, it's about discouraging those who lack confidence from taking action.

The cost of pursuing a life of luxury is on a completely different level between a girl living in a slum in a building that's just a handshake with her head between her shoulders and a sophisticated socialite living in a luxury apartment.

Lin Weiwei picked up her phone, opened the bank app, and looked at her savings of over 80 yuan.

Before, when I saw this string of numbers, I felt only pride and a sense of security.

This money is also what gives her the confidence to keep putting off dating.

But this sense of security seemed so fragile, even somewhat laughable, compared to Hu Yixin's nearly ten-thousand-yuan dinner and Huang Tian's wealth.

"If... I were the one with him..."

Once the thought arises, it can never be suppressed.

Is she worse than Hu Yixin?

Lin Weiwei didn't think so.

What Hu Yixin can do, she can do even better.

She's more sensible and considerate, and it's a respectable thing to be seen with her, instead of just being a spoiled brat and posting on social media.

The constraints of morality begin to loosen little by little amidst the desires of reality and the weighing of pros and cons.

Lin Weiwei walked to the dressing mirror, removed the face mask, and looked at her bare face, which still had a well-defined contour.

She was well aware of her face's appeal to men.

Moving her gaze downwards, she saw long, snow-white legs that seemed to reflect light—the result of two hours of nightly skincare, legs that no man had ever touched.

"Lin Weiwei, if you want something, you have to work hard to get it yourself."

The hesitation in Lin Weiwei's eyes was gradually replaced by a calm and resolute determination.

If Hu Yixin can do it, why can't she?

This city, this circle, and even this man have never belonged to anyone.

Opportunities are always reserved for those who are more prepared and more willing to reach out.

……

Back at Tianlin Mansion, the "beep" of the fingerprint lock sounded particularly clear in the quiet corridor.

The blush on Hu Yixin's face had not completely faded, partly from the slight intoxication of sake, and partly from the excitement brought by the abundance of envy and likes she received on her WeChat Moments.

"Honey, thank you for spoiling me so much. No one has ever been so good to me in my whole life."

Hu Yixin wrapped her arms around Huang Tian's waist from behind, feeling the sense of security brought by the man's broad back, and said in a soft and sweet voice.

But when it comes to how much effort Huang Tian put in, it certainly can't compare to the meticulous care her ex-boyfriend provided.

But there was nothing she could do; Huang Tian had the power of money to take her to a new world she had never experienced before.

High-end restaurants, luxury brands, five-star hotels…

Compared to these, emotional investment is insignificant.

"Whatever makes you happy."

Huang Tian patted her hand, his tone gentle yet clear-headed.

Without money, Huang Tian was still that poor loser who could only watch beautiful women on Douyin (TikTok).

Hu Yixin let go of his hand, turned to face Huang Tian, ​​tilted her pretty face up, and looked at him with a dreamy gaze.

"A verbal thank you isn't enough..."

As she spoke, she gently hooked her fingers around Huang Tian's collar, stood on tiptoe, and brushed her warm breath, carrying the scent of wine, against Huang Tian's neck.

After a long while, Huang Tian released Hu Yixin, who had become limp.

Under the light, her newly permed curls were loose and languid, her eyes exuded a deliberately amplified allure, and the curves outlined by her little black dress were indeed very tempting.

Huang Tian knew that Hu Yixin was trying so hard to please him because she wanted to solidify their relationship and make her position more secure.

"Sweetie, go take a shower first."

Huang Tian pinched Hu Yixin's cheek, planning to reward her properly that night.

Hu Yixin is beautiful, has a great figure, and is very good at getting things done.

There's nothing wrong with keeping a canary as a pet.

It's just a matter of spending some money, but our CEO Huang has no shortage of money.

Okay.

Hu Yixin said sweetly, "Then wait for me, I'll be done washing soon~"

After saying that, Hu Yixin flew into the master bedroom bathroom like a light butterfly.

Huang Tian went to the living room, poured himself a glass of water, sat on the sofa, and then took out his phone.

At the very top was a message from Lin Weiwei not long ago, which had been lying quietly in the list for a long time, like a lost lamb waiting for its fate.

Lin Weiwei: "Mr. Huang, I know a restaurant whose food is just as good as Sushi Bun, which you guys checked out today. We can go check it out together sometime."

Huang Tian's lips curled into a smile that seemed to confirm his suspicions; the mermaid had indeed taken the bait.

From her anxieties about the future in the afternoon coffee shop to seemingly seeking advice but actually trying to build a closer relationship, the conversation turned to financial matters.

Lin Weiwei's every step was methodical, unhurried, yet with a clear goal.

If it were an ordinary rich kid, they would definitely find it difficult and give up.

Huang Tian, ​​however, was very patient and quite admired Lin Weiwei's clear-headed ambition.

Compared to Hu Yixin's more direct attempts to please, this has a unique charm.

Huang Tian did not reply immediately, but instead took his water glass and walked to the French windows.

Outside the window is a bustling city, where the endless stream of cars and the lights of countless homes weave a perfect picture.

The system gave him not only the freedom to consume, but also the attitude of being superior and making choices with ease.

Huang Tian had no reason to refuse Lin Weiwei, who had offered herself up as a tool for generating gold coins.

Compared to Hu Yixin, Lin Weiwei is definitely more sensible.

As long as you manage the relationship between the two people well, you won't have to worry about the speed at which you accumulate gold coins.
