Super Rich by Doing as You Please

Chapter 300 - 159: Er, What’s Gotten Into Her Again Tonight?

"Oh." Ning Qian was reluctant, but she let go and stood up to help Xu Yun get dressed.

Then she walked him to the door and whispered, "Drive carefully on your way back."

"Okay."

After Xu Yun left, Ning Qian didn’t go back to the bedroom. Instead, she sat alone on the sofa.

With more and more women in Xu Yun’s life, the time he could spend with her was becoming less and less.

He used to stay the night, but now he was gone after just a few hours of sleep.

’People always want more.’

’It’s wrong, but that’s just how I feel.’

Xu Yun checked the time and drove to the television station.

Song Xiaowei wasn’t off work yet, so he decided to wait in the car and turned on the radio.

He tuned into Song Xiaowei’s late-night music station.

Soon enough, he heard Song Xiaowei’s voice coming from the speakers.

"LoveRadio 103.7. It’s now 2 a.m."

"I think the chances of meeting the person who’s most suited for you in this world are very low."

"But then again... in a sea of billions, some people come along who can just... capture your every thought in a single instant."

"And in the days to come, they’ll make you miss them, over and over again, leaving you tossing and turning through the night."

"Hmm, and if you insist on finding a reason for it... well, maybe you don’t have to. Because the moment you try to define it all..."

"It might just be fate."

As Song Xiaowei’s gentle, low voice faded, drawing listeners into a sentimental mood, a fittingly melancholic song began to play.

Xu Yun had heard this song before. It was the theme from *My Love from the Star*.

He had to admit, just listening to that segment, he truly appreciated Song Xiaowei’s professionalism.

Sometimes a song resonates with us because we hear our own stories in its lyrics.

When we listen with emotion, we can move ourselves, viewing the music through a personal filter.

Xu Yun felt a sense of peace. In the silence of the late night, he listened to the music, lost in memories of his own story.

’No wonder she said her ratings had skyrocketed since she joined the show,’ he thought. ’With a voice and an atmosphere like this, it’s hard not to be captivated.’

And so, Xu Yun waited in his car at the foot of the television station, listening to Song Xiaowei’s show.

The show moved on to a call-in request segment.

Xu Yun tried calling the number and, to his surprise, he got through on the first try.

Song Xiaowei’s voice came through the radio, tinged with a smile. "Hello, caller. What should we call you?"

"You can call me ’Hubby’."

"???"

Song Xiaowei was stunned for a second, thinking some creep was trying to hit on her, but she quickly realized.

’That voice sounds so familiar.’

She quickly gestured to a staff member for the caller’s number. One glance confirmed it. Who else could it be but Xu Yun?

Song Xiaowei couldn’t believe he’d actually called into her show like this.

A blush crept up her face as she spoke into the microphone, "Hello, ’Hubby.’ What do you do for a living? Why are you still up so late?"

"I’m a freelancer."

Xu Yun replied, "I’m downstairs, waiting for my girlfriend to get off work. I’m going to take her out for a late-night snack."

"You must really love your girlfriend."

Hearing that he was waiting for her right downstairs, Song Xiaowei’s heart swelled with emotion.

She asked happily, "So, ’Hubby,’ what song would you like to request?"

"I’d like to request ’Waiting For You After Class’ by Jay Chou. It’s for my girlfriend. I hope she likes it."

"Mm, I’m sure your girlfriend is listening right now, and I bet she’ll love the song you picked for her."

Song Xiaowei said, "Alright, let’s listen to the last song of the night: ’Waiting For You After Class’ by Jay Chou. For everyone out there with a secret crush, I hope you all find your happiness."

As soon as the song was switched over, she bolted from the broadcast booth, grabbed her bag, and ran for the stairs.

On the radio, the song began to play.

[The alley where you live~]

[I rented an apartment~]

[Just for a chance to run into you~]

Meanwhile, in a bar on the other side of town, Xino had had a bit too much to drink and still hadn’t gone home.

Her worried older brother, Xi Wei, had come looking for her.

Xino looked at her brother with hazy, drunken eyes. "Bro, can I ask you something?"

Xi Wei: "What is it?"

"Do you guys all like women with big boobs?"

Xi Wei: "..."

"Do you guys all like gentle women?"

Xi Wei: "..."

’Ugh, what set her off tonight?’
