This Girl Wins Three Hundred Million Dollars
Chapter 66

Lin Fangyu sobbed and cursed the scumbag Chen Xiao for not washing his feet, throwing his dirty socks around after playing basketball every time. Yu Shu held her phone behind the camera, trying not to laugh. It was then that Shen Youlin called. Yu Shu didn't think twice before hanging up.

It took Yu Shu a long time before she had the chance to call him back in the relatively quiet corridor outside the restroom.

On the other side of the earth, Shen Youlin was washing up when he got the call. With shampoo still foaming on his head, he hurriedly dried his hands to take the call.

Yu Shu asked, "What did you call for?" S~ᴇaʀᴄh the n0vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Shen Youlin was annoyed: "You were the one who called me first, and now you're asking me why I called?"

"Oh right, I wanted to thank you for visiting my mom."

Some words, once the emotional catharsis has passed, become impossible to say.

"Oh, don't mention it. Helping a friend walk through fire and water, sacrificing myself for you, this little thing is nothing," Shen Youlin could tell she was lying but didn't probe further. He explained, "When you called, I was at work. Ask me what work I'm doing!"

Trying not to laugh, Yu Shu asked, "What work are you doing?"

"I'm working as a server at a restaurant my family invested in. I'm playing the role of a poor struggling exchange student. The script has me playing pig to catch the tiger, just waiting for some fool to come crashing in so I can slap their face. I've arranged all the extras already. After I'm done slapping their face, they'll come out and say, 'Young Master Shen, please calm down!'"

Yu Shu chuckled, "That's such an old trope."

"Old or not doesn't matter, as long as it's satisfying."

"Well, keep waiting for the 'fool' to come crashing in then."

"Oh right, let me tell you something to cheer you up. The developer came knocking, wants to buy that entire street, paying triple the demolition compensation."

The developer had wanted to lowball the offer initially, but after looking into Shen Youlin's background, they pinched their nose and agreed to his terms.

"Wow~" Yu Shu cheered loudly, "Doubling my assets!"

Nothing made her happier than making bank. In that moment, her petty romance felt inconsequential.

After hanging up, Yu Shu was so excited she spun circles on the spot. It took a long time for her to calm down.

Once that street was sold, her net worth would near 500 million RMB. Hot damn!!!!

On Yu Shu's birthday itself, she got another surprise guest. When Ou Doudou popped out from a giant gift box saying "Surprise!", Yu Shu was overjoyed and could only scream.

Ou Doudou's company was expanding into Rong City, so she had requested a transfer. Her husband had also moved to Rong City with her.

Now, all of Yu Shu's closest friends were in Rong City.

The five girls partied hard in the apartment the whole day, even ordering delivery from Black Swan at one point. The delivery guy who brought the cake was built like a model with the looks of a celebrity. It was as if they had entered a cave of beautiful silks, and they kept him there for photos and teasing before finally letting him leave after a long time.

"If one day I become very rich

I can keep everyone by my side

Happily eating, drinking, chatting everyday

No need to worry about tomorrow or farewells

When I'm rich, I'm rich

So many waste time day and night

..."

The speakers played a song while the girls sang and danced happily, laughter ringing.

When one song finished, the projector paused for a second or two before a dim scene appeared on the screen. Lin Fangyu was slumped over a table bawling, "That blind bastard turtle son Wang Ba Dan Chen Xiao!!! Even this handsome face isn't enough for him--"

Yu Shu tried again and again to hold it in, but couldn't help bursting into laughter, falling limp onto the sofa unable to get up.

"Ahhhhh!!!! Yu Shu!! You're dead!!"

Lin Fangyu jumped up to strangle her. Yu Shu rolled and crawled to hide behind Yang ZhiXia. A boring chase ensued, with no clear victim or bully.

Yang ZhiXia joined in. She helped whoever was losing at the moment - a fence-sitter.

Ou Doudou watched the chaos gleefully, clapping and cheering them on, "Tickle her, she's ticklish!"

Little Dou'e's small head had no idea what was happening. She just knew there were many beautiful ladies who really liked her and gave her meat. She wagged her tail happily around their feet.

After tiring themselves out at the end, the five girls collapsed onto the giant wool rug to rest. Dou'e wanted in on the fun too. She nosed around until she cleared a spot near Yu Shu and flopped onto her back with her legs in the air, mimicking them.

"Let's take a pic, take a pic~"

"My phone's on the sofa."

"Eggplant, eggplant!!"

"Hahaha, ZhiXia your laugh is so silly."

"I wanna squeeze next to Dou'e, make my face look small, hehe~"

............

During his break, Shen Youlin saw the photos Yu Shu posted on Moments. It was a 9-panel collage, each shot radiating joy and delight. The cake, birthday hats, happy birthday balloons on the wall, Yu Shu surrounded by her beaming friends in the middle - each was a picture of happiness.

Some shots even had Dou'e photobombing, the silly dog grinning with her tongue out.

Today was her birthday.

Shen Youlin called WeiBo, "Get me a plane, I want to go back to..."

Go back where?

He suddenly remembered yesterday's half-finished shower...

"I want to go to Australia."

After hanging up, Shen Youlin stared at his phone screen for a long time. He commented "Happy Birthday".

It was a long while before Yu Shu replied: Thanks, it's on your tab, don't forget when you're back.
