Chapter 198: Chapter 198: The Sudhana Scumbag? Yan Luoxi’s Dilemma

Seeing this, Yan Luoxi didn’t press the issue. She grabbed a bottle of water from the side and handed it to her.

"Thanks, thanks."

Roy took the water, thanking her profusely.

After opening it and taking a sip, she said, "Xixi, have you seen the Zhongxin Group stock? That damn man of yours is a legitimate god!"

"The Zhongxin Group stock price just suddenly started plummeting out of nowhere!"

Hearing her praise "that damn man of hers," the corners of Yan Luoxi’s mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly, but she quickly returned to her usual cold, unapproachable demeanor.

Roy shot her a look. "..."

’Like I didn’t see that?’

Roy couldn’t help but pout, but she didn’t call her out on it.

"By the way," she began after a moment’s thought, "Xixi, did you sell your shares yet?"

"Sold them."

Yan Luoxi said, her tone flat.

"Uh... how much did you make this time?"

Roy asked, a little curious.

"Not much."

"Only about four hundred million."

Yan Luoxi said nonchalantly.

Roy was speechless.

’Not much...?’

’Only four hundred million?’

She couldn’t help but give Yan Luoxi a massive eye-roll.

’What a flex... ugh, no, wait. She’s got the goods to back it up... no need to flex!’

Roy didn’t even want to talk anymore.

She felt a little sour.

*Sigh...*

’If only I’d believed Xixi back then and bought into Zhongxin Group with her.’

Roy was filled with regret, but it was too late for that now.

However...

"Anyway, Xixi!"

"Did that damn man of yours mention what the next inside tip is?"

"Next time, if you’re not using company funds, let me in on it, okay?"

"Hehe..."

Roy hooked her arm through Yan Luoxi’s, a fawning smile on her face.

"Didn’t you say you didn’t believe a word he said before?"

"You even said he was setting me up."

Yan Luoxi glanced at her, her voice cool.

"Er..."

Roy looked completely awkward upon hearing that.

"Oh, come on~"

"That was because I didn’t know how amazing he was!"

she said sheepishly.

"Is that so?"

"So you know how amazing he is now?"

Yan Luoxi asked, her tone flat.

"Of course!"

"He helped you make four hundred million in less than half a month. How is that not amazing?"

Roy shook Yan Luoxi’s arm, wheedling, "Besides, the main reason I didn’t trust him before was that I was worried you were being scammed!"

Yan Luoxi glanced at her. "When he tells me the next tip, I’ll let you know."

"Alrighty~"

Hearing this, Roy’s eyes crinkled into a smile and she beamed.

Seeing Roy’s expression change in a flash, Yan Luoxi just shook her head without a word.

"By the way."

"Xixi, now that your damn man has helped you make so much money again, how are you planning to thank him?"

"Offer yourself to him?"

Roy suggested after a moment’s thought.

WHOOSH.

Yan Luoxi’s face instantly flushed at her words.

She couldn’t help but glare at her.

’This girl still has absolutely no filter.’

’Offer myself to him... How could she even say that?’

’Besides, even if I wanted to, that damn man would have to want me first!’

However, thinking about her plan to buy him a car, Yan Luoxi decided to ask Roy for her opinion.

"I’m thinking of getting him a car, but I don’t know if he’ll accept it," Yan Luoxi said.

"A car?"

Roy was slightly taken aback.

But after a moment’s thought, she decided it was a pretty good idea.

"A car could work. What kind are you planning to get him?"

Roy asked. "A Ferrari? Lamborghini? Or maybe a Bugatti?"

"I... I haven’t decided yet."

Yan Luoxi said, shaking her head.

’But I probably can’t give him any of the cars Roy just mentioned.’

’If I plan to give him a car under the guise of a work expense, a supercar would be inappropriate.’

’I could only give him a regular, modest car.’

’But compared to the four hundred million, that seems a little... inadequate.’

This was Yan Luoxi’s dilemma.

’Maybe... I should just get that damn man a house instead?’

’Didn’t his mom always want him to buy a house?’

’A villa would work.’

’But the biggest problem is figuring out how to give it to him.’

"Uh..."

Seeing Yan Luoxi’s conflicted expression, Roy was baffled.

’What’s there to be so conflicted about?’

She didn’t quite understand her best friend’s thinking.

"So, Xixi, how far have you and that damn man of yours gotten?"

"Are you officially boyfriend and girlfriend yet?"

Roy asked curiously.

Yan Luoxi froze for a second at the question.

"No."

She shook her head gently.

"Huh?"

This time, it was Roy’s turn to be stunned.

’No way!’

’That guy has already helped her make so much money, and they’re still not boyfriend and girlfriend?’

Roy was astonished.

’No wonder Ice Xi was so conflicted just now about what kind of car to get him.’

’If they were boyfriend and girlfriend, it would be so much easier!’

’She could just ask him what car he likes and get him that.’

’So they’re not even together yet!’

But this only made Roy even more curious about her best friend’s "damn man."

What kind of guy keeps giving a girl opportunities to make huge amounts of money before they’ve even confirmed they’re in a relationship?

’Is he Sudhana?’

’Even the Leshan Giant Buddha isn’t as generous as him, right?’

Yan Luoxi noticed her best friend giving her a strange look.

She furrowed her pretty brows slightly. "What’s with that look?"

"Ah~ It’s nothing!"

Roy quickly averted her gaze and said with a serious expression, "Xixi, I think you and that damn man of yours should make things official as soon as possible."

"Now’s not the right time."

Hearing this, Yan Luoxi gently shook her head.

’It’s really not that I don’t want to!’

’It’s just that I’ve only just started interacting with him as Yan Luoxi. We haven’t even had time to build up any feelings yet. I can’t just abruptly ask him to be my boyfriend, can I?’

’If I really did that, knowing him, he would definitely refuse. He’d probably even think I’d lost my mind.’

"No, that’s not it!"

"Xixi, I’m not trying to rush you, but I really think you should speed things up a bit."

"Think about it. He’s given you two chances to make a fortune without even being in a relationship with you. He’s been the only one putting in the effort, while you haven’t given anything back. If this goes on for too long, he’s definitely going to start having second thoughts!"

Roy explained.

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, Yan Luoxi’s brows furrowed once again.

"It’s just human nature, totally normal!"

"Just put yourself in his shoes for a second. If you were the one always giving, wouldn’t you start having second thoughts too?"

Roy continued.

At these words, Yan Luoxi fell into a deep thought...
