Rebirth: I have Monopoly System

In Jingyang, the go-to after-lunch entertainment was basically mahjong or just sitting around and chatting.

Wu Yun was also roped into a game of family mahjong, forming a table with Qi Fei’s two older brothers, Qi Changqing and Huang Xin, along with her sister-in-law, Liu Nana.

Through their idle chatter, Wu Yun learned about their professions.

Qi Changqing had been heavily influenced by his father since childhood. After graduating from university, through his own efforts and some help from the family, he successfully passed the civil service exam. Now, at the age of thirty, he was already the director of the Jingyang City Office.

Huang Xin, on the other hand, was in the clothing business with his father, Huang Wei. Since his family owned the source factory, they had even established their own brand. Huang Xin had online stores on all the major e-commerce platforms, including the newly established Pinduoduo.

That was why Huang Xin had recognized Wu Yun the moment he walked in the door.

As for his sister-in-law Liu Nana, Wu Yun initially thought she was a full-time stay-at-home mom. However, after hearing Qi Changqing’s question at the mahjong table, he learned that Liu Nana was actually a web novelist. In her spare time between taking care of her child and resting, she had already evolved from a struggling author to a premium one.

"Kong! Haha! A win from the wall after a Kong!" Liu Nana clapped her hands happily. Because the heat was on in the house, she was only wearing a slim-fitting sweater, which further accentuated her curvaceous figure—the kind one would expect from someone who frequented the gym.

Wu Yun’s line of sight happened to catch the billows set off by her clapping.

’Tsk, tsk, tsk. Avert your eyes.’ Wu Yun was sitting directly across from her; it was impossible to miss those alluring curves.

Wu Yun chanted silently in his heart, ’I am not a Cao Thief, I am not a Cao Thief.’

Perhaps noticing Wu Yun’s gaze, Liu Nana sat up even straighter, making her chest appear even more prominent.

Sometimes in mahjong, when it’s three men and one woman at a table, there’s a high probability that the woman will clean out the other three and become the big winner.

This was Wu Yun’s first time playing mahjong in this life, and he hadn’t expected to run into this exact situation.

"Sister Na! Your luck is a little too good today! I haven’t even discarded all my unwanted tiles yet!" Wu Yun said, a little helplessly.

Liu Nana smiled smugly. "I haven’t played in a long time, so all my luck must have been saved up! Thanks for the New Year’s money, you guys."

It was just family mahjong, with a low stake of five yuan and an eighty-yuan cap, just for fun and to pass the time.

Wu Yun took a red bill from the box and handed it to Liu Nana, asking with a smile, "Sister Na! Where do you publish your novel?"

The mahjong table rumbled as it shuffled the tiles. Liu Nana leaned over to draw her tiles and said, "Singularity’s female fiction section. What, is President Wu going to gift me a Silver Alliance?"

Liu Nana had seen that the red envelope Wu Yun gave Qi Ruixi contained ten thousand yuan in new bills, so she said it jokingly.

Wu Yun quickly sorted his tiles and said with a smile, "Sure! What genre is it? What’s your pen name? I happen to have some free time these next few days, so I can read it."

Just then, Huang Xin joked, "Sister Na! You already tricked me into one Silver Alliance, and now you’re trying to trick Wu Yun into one too!"

Liu Nana slammed her first tile onto the table. "Nine Dots!"

"Since Wu Yun is Feifei’s boyfriend, that makes him my little brother! Is there anything wrong with an older sister asking her little brother for a small favor? Huang Xin, if you’re jealous, you can just gift me a Golden Alliance!"

After discarding a tile, Huang Xin said with exaggeration, "Sister Na! No wonder I heard the sound of an abacus clicking in my room today, so it was you hatching a clever scheme! I don’t have that kind of money!"

Qi Changqing, sitting beside him, laughed. "Huang Xin, now you’re not being honest! I heard from my aunt that you made at least four or five million this year! She was even complaining to me that you take inventory without paying for the goods. You’re basically winning without lifting a finger!"

"One Bam! PONG!" Qi Changqing said, taking the tile Wu Yun had just discarded.

Hearing Qi Changqing’s words, Huang Xin said, looking a bit guilty, "I have to pay my employees! I don’t have that much~"

To be honest, sponsoring an Alliance Leader or a Silver Alliance was no big deal. As a relative, it was something he should do to show support.

But a Golden Alliance was a hundred thousand yuan! Even he would feel the sting of spending that much. Besides, they were both married, and she was his cousin-in-law. Although he usually lived far away on the coast, he still knew to avoid any potential misunderstandings.

Wu Yun noticed a flash of difficulty in Huang Xin’s expression and said with a smile, "Sister Na! Tell me your book title! I’ll go sponsor a Golden Alliance for you!"

"Really!?" Liu Nana sat up straight, excited.

"Hehe! Self-draw, pay up all three of you!" Huang Xin chuckled, revealing the tile he’d just drawn before saying, "When President Wu speaks, of course it’s true! Sister Na, you’ve probably been so busy with the kid and your novel that you don’t know President Wu’s reputation! Wu Yun donated twenty to thirty million last year alone! Never mind one Golden Alliance! Even ten or a hundred would be nothing to him!"

With that, Huang Xin put on a sycophantic grin and said, "Little brother! Oh, no! President Wu! You have to treat everyone equally! Could you give my Pinduoduo shop a little discount on the platform fees?"

Wu Yun said nonchalantly, "No problem. I’ll have a word with my operations guy. You can just go straight to him."

At that moment, Liu Nana also won with a self-drawn tile. She laughed and said, "Little brother, I was just kidding. Let’s forget about the Golden Alliance! I’m afraid the quality of my book can’t handle that kind of heavy pressure. You can find it by searching for *Flowers Bloom in Spring* on Singularity’s female fiction section!"

"*Flowers Bloom in Spring*..." Wu Yun murmured the name to himself. When he found he had no memory of it, he figured it was just as Liu Nana had said: a book that had just crossed the threshold from a flop to a premium novel, one that would eventually be lost in the vast ocean of web literature in his previous life.

After making a mental note of it, Wu Yun focused on playing mahjong.

A short while later, Qi Fei brought over a stool and sat down on Wu Yun’s right.

Liu Nana asked with a smile, "Is Ruixi asleep?"

Qi Fei rubbed her temples, nodded, and sighed. "Taking care of a kid is exhausting! I only watched him for two or three hours and I feel like my head is going to explode! And you still have to write your novel, Sister Na! After watching the kid, I don’t even want to move!"

Liu Nana multitasked, discarding a tile as she spoke. "I’m just letting you get used to it in advance, so you and Wu Yun won’t be in a panic when you have a kid of your own! Actually, I have it pretty good! My parents help watch him, and Ruixi can go to kindergarten right after the New Year. I’ll finally be liberated!"

Liu Nana sighed wistfully. "Finally, I’ll have plenty of time to write and go to the gym!"

The thought of raising a child made Qi Fei shudder. "I’m definitely hiring an extra nanny in the future! That way two nannies can take turns, and it’ll be much easier!"

Liu Nana gave her a speechless look that screamed, ’You’re rich, so you can do whatever you want.’

Qi Fei said with a smile, "Sister Na! You can do it too! When your book becomes a huge hit and you sell the rights, remember to come to me to get the TV series made!"

’But I don’t know what everyone was discussing earlier, so I shouldn’t mention that Wuyun Company actually acquires novel adaptation rights. What if Wu Yun hasn’t brought it up? Wouldn’t that put him on the spot, like he was being roasted over a fire!?’

"Alright! I’ll take you up on those good wishes! I’m still waiting for your boyfriend to sponsor that Silver Alliance for me!"
