When Luo Tianyuan walked out of the kitchen with instant noodles in hand, Luo Shuyan was already back in her room. She turned off the light but she couldnât fall asleep as she lay in bed. Thoughts were racing through her mind. When Shen Yan first told her about his suspicions, she didnât believe him entirely. She couldnât believe that her family were considered new money.
Just as she had calmed down and gathered her thoughts,, she happened to hear her father conversing with his friend.
Shen Yanâs predictions were correct. What did her father say again? Heâs investing a million in someoneâs company? And he also bought a bungalow in Jing City? This was solid evidence that he was new money, and that made her new money too!
When she thought about the fact that her father was wealthy, and that made her new money, Luo Shuyan couldnât keep calm at all.
She tossed and turned in bed until 2AM.
The next day, she appeared in front of her father with heavy eye bags. Her anxiousness and excitement had subsided overnight.
Luo Tianyuan noticed his daughterâs noticeably tired look. He asked, concerned, âAre you not feeling well?â
Luo Shuyan bluffed and said, âI didnât manage to sleep well, so Iâm a bit tired.â
âIf thatâs the caseâ¦â Luo Tianyuan was not a strict father. His first reaction towards his daughterâs question was to say, âItâs alright, I think you can skip school for a day. You can rest at home, so should I let your class teacher know?â
During the era where her peers had to fake sickness to skip class, Luo Shuyanâs father already allowed her to skip class after a poor nightâs sleep.
In Luo Tianyunâs opinion, his daughter was the only relative he had left on earth. Majority of the motivation for him to work came from his daughter. Thus, as a father, he tried his best to meet all the needs of his daughter.
In regards to whether his daughterâs grades were any good, he didnât seem to care much about it. In his opinion, he was content as long as his daughter was mentally and physically healthy.t.
âThereâs no need,â Luo Shuyan said.
She could understand everything in class, so it didnât matter if she were to skip a day of class. However, staying at home alone was quite boring.
Luo Tianyuan looked at her worriedly. âIs your bed uncomfortable? Should I buy you a new Simmons mattress?â
Was this how the rich lived?
Luo Shuyan instinctively held onto her own sleeve. She felt as if she was dreaming. She held herself back and shook her head. âThereâs no need, Iâm comfortable with the current mattress.â
His suggestion was promptly turned down. âAlright.â Luo Tianyuan gently caressed Luo Shuyanâs head and said, âGo ahead and wash up, Iâll fetch you and Shen Yan to school.â
Luo Shuyanâs eyelashes fluttered when she heard that he was âfetchingâ her to school â in a car.
She promptly washed up and went to her neighborâs to have breakfast, before heading downstairs with Shen Yan.
Luo Tianyuan was waiting for them in the car.
The school was very near their neighborhood. It only took 10 minutes by foot, and it was even faster by car. After Luo Tianyuan dropped them off, Luo Shuyan tugged the straps of her school bag and hurriedly told Shen Yan, âShen Yan, youâre a psychic! You were right after all!.â
She didnât dare to talk too loudly. When she recalled what he had said on the train, she looked around and asked in a small voice, âI donât think Iâm being very loud, am I?â
Shen Yan glanced at her and said, âItâs just nice.â
âThatâs good.â Luo Shuyanâs voice was soft, but she looked very excited, as if sheâd won some sort of huge prize. âYesterday when I woke up, I heard my dad on the phone with someone. Turns out, my dad really is the one whoâs planning to buy the bungalow!â
Shen Yan looked calm as he said, âYou didnât believe me when I said it back then.â
âIf it werenât my dad himself who mentioned that, how would I dare believe in such an unimaginable thing? Shen Yan, what do you think? Do you think my dad is considered a wealthy man?â
âIt depends.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âIn Ning City, of course. But Iâm not sure if heâd be considered rich in Jing City.â
Luo Shuyan was still delighted. âThen, do you think Iâm considered ânew moneyâ?â
ââ¦â
He couldnât understand why Luo Shuyan was excited.
And what was so exciting about being ânew moneyâ anyway?
Luo Shuyan asked, âSo, do you think I am?â
Shen Yan didnât want to get into a quarrel with her on school grounds. This would cause others to laugh at them. He lied through his teeth and said, âI guess so.â
Luo Shuyan immediately became happier. After a moment of happiness, she recalled something important. She reminded him in a serious tone, âYou better not tell others about this, this is my family secret. My father wasnât willing to say anything, and Iâm sure he has his reasons. Iâm talking to you about this because I believe you, so you better not ruin my trust.â
Shen Yan looked at her in disgust. âIâm not a gossiper!â
âYou canât let Aunty Shen know about it either.â
ââ¦â
âKeep this between you, me, and God, got it?â
Shen Yan walked fast and clearly had no intention of furthering the conversation. âDonât worry, Iâm not that free.â
Even though Shen Yan was still a young kid, Luo Shuyan already had a lot of trust in him. He was someone who kept his word.
âCan you address me as Miss Luo from now on?â

Shen Yan looked at her like he was looking at a retard. âAre you stupid?â
Luo Shuyan also thought that she was being dumb. She had been pretty smart before this.
Is she also part of the population whoâd gone mad after becoming rich?
For the rest of the day, Luo Shuyan had been very excited. When she thought about the car at home and her bungalow in the outskirts of Jing City, she couldnât help but smile. Even her classmates realized that something was off with their class monitor; something great mustâve happened to her, she even took the initiative to clean the black board.
She remained in high spirits until the end of the school day.
