106: Chapter 106 Xu Wei, worth tens of millions
Upon hearing this, Xu Wei was somewhat speechless.
"That's all just your own guessing, alright? Did I ever say that villa was in Jiangning?"
Hearing this, not only Zhang Ruoni but everyone else was stunned.
Seeing that no one spoke, Gu Xiaonan hurriedly asked curiously.
"Weiwei, do you mean that villa was bought in our county?"
Xu Wei nodded upon hearing this.
"It seems you aren't that stupid after all."
After hearing this, Gu Xiaonan rolled her eyes at her. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by a recovered Gong Lina.
"Weiwei, which residential area in our county is it in?"
"It's in Jinlan Mansion. However, I mainly keep that villa for my family to live in. After all, my husband is in Jiangning, and I definitely need to stay by his side."
As she said this, Xu Wei took the opportunity to make a joke.
"Sigh, there's no helping it. When you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; when you marry a dog, you follow the dog."
Hearing this, the other women at the table were all stunned.
"Weiwei, I feel like you're showing off, but I have no proof."
"Weiwei, take my advice: never go out when it's thundering in the future."
"Thunder is one thing, but you shouldn't even go out when it rains in the future. You need to know how to take precautions in advance!"
Listening to the voices complaining, Xu Wei couldn't help but be speechless. People in this era were so used to lies that they collectively broke down when faced with the truth.
"Alright, why talk so much! Hurry up and eat; it'll get cold soon."
Except for Zhang Cheng, whose expression was a bit ugly and who hadn't moved, the others picked up their chopsticks and started eating one after another.
It's not that Xu Wei didn't notice this; even if she had, she would have at most scoffed.
From the moment they fell out, she never intended to eat this lunch for free, let alone the fact that the other party only said they were treating, and in all likelihood, hadn't even paid yet.
Of course, the others thought similarly; after all, no one was so poor that they couldn't afford a meal.
They ate quietly for a few minutes like this.
Jiang Min felt the atmosphere was a bit oppressive and spoke up first.
"Weiwei, don't forget about us sisters when you make it big in the future!"
Except for a few boys at the table who didn't speak, the others spoke up one after another.
"Minmin, do you even know how to talk! 'In the future'? Weiwei has already made it big now, okay!"
"Weiwei, come back and gather with us sisters when you have time in the future."
"Xu Wei, if I can't make it in my hometown in the future, I'll come to rely on you. Remember to grant me a meal then!"
After they finished speaking, Gu Xiaonan said with a grin.
"Weiwei, I'm going to Jiangning for a few days in a while. I'll come find you to hang out then!"
If there was anyone at this class reunion who made Xu Wei feel like an Old Classmate, it was definitely Gu Xiaonan. So, upon hearing this, she didn't hesitate and nodded directly in agreement.
"Remember to text me in advance when you come over so I can make arrangements."
Gu Xiaonan was stunned at this.
"Why would I need you to arrange anything? I'll find a place to stay and contact you on my phone then."
"You're so slow! I meant, what if I'm on a plane? You wouldn't be able to reach me at all!"
"Besides, since you're coming to hang out with me, why bother looking for a place to stay? Just come stay at my place. Wouldn't it be better to save that money and buy more food?"
Gu Xiaonan understood the first part well enough—after all, she had to work—but the latter part left her a bit bewildered.
"Wei, Weiwei, wouldn't it be inappropriate for me to stay at your place? I have thin skin and I'm afraid of it being awkward."
Xu Wei laughed and teased.
"You have thin skin? How come I didn't notice? Weren't you calling out quite happily earlier?"
Gu Xiaonan rolled her eyes at her.
"Is the outside world the same as my hometown? Of course, I'm not afraid in my hometown, but when I go to another place, I have to be cautious! As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake."
As she said this, Gu Xiaonan paused and added with a smile.
"Weiwei, I appreciate your kindness, but I'll just behave and stay in a hotel! Otherwise, leaving aside the awkwardness for me, it would be even worse if it made your husband uncomfortable."
Xu Wei was a bit confused upon hearing this.
"Why would my husband be uncomfortable? Why are you bringing him into this for no reason?"
"Ah!" Gu Xiaonan was speechless upon hearing this.
"If I stay at your place, I'd have to greet your husband, wouldn't I? Wouldn't your husband feel awkward?"
Xu Wei suddenly realized.
"I thought it was something else. I'm currently living alone; my husband isn't staying there for the time being. Alright then! If you're not coming, forget it. Just pretend I never said anything."
They don't live together? Gu Xiaonan was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said eagerly.
"I'll stay, I'll stay! I always thought you two were living together, so I was embarrassed to bother you. Besides, we're sisters, no need to be formal, right!"
Xu Wei couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.
"Alright then, just contact me in advance."
"Okay, my Weiwei is the best," Gu Xiaonan hurriedly fawned.
Just kidding, she had said that earlier because she thought they were already living together. Now that she knew Xu Wei was living alone, she definitely had to tag along!
After all, no matter where you go, accommodation costs are a major expense, and as a new first-tier Jiangning, the cost of living in Jiangning naturally wouldn't be low.
Just for this one-week trip, even if staying in an ordinary hotel, it would cost around 150 a day, so calculating that, over a thousand would be gone.
After thinking this through, Gu Xiaonan asked with a hint of curiosity.
"Weiwei, if you don't live with your husband, are you renting a place outside by yourself?"
Xu Wei nodded mischievously.
"You guessed right. The house I'm currently renting is actually my husband's, but he gave it to me."
The others were eating while listening to their conversation, and when this remark from Xu Wei came out, everyone was stunned again.
Gu Xiaonan was the first to react and shrieked.
"He even gave you the house in Jiangning?"
Xu Wei was startled by the sudden noise and hurriedly said with annoyance.
"Why are you so jumpy! You scared me, you know that?"
Zhang Peng, having collected himself, hurriedly asked curiously.
"Xu Wei, which residential area is the house in Jiangning in? I worked in real estate in Jiangning for two years and only planned to come back to develop at home this year."
Xu Wei smiled indifferently.
"Yingyuan Residential Area, do you know it?"
"Yingyuan Residential Area?"
Zhang Peng thought for a moment.
"Is it in Xuanwu District?"
Xu Wei was a bit surprised; she didn't expect Zhang Peng to actually know it.
"That's right, it's that Yingyuan in Xuanwu District."
"Tsk tsk tsk... That place is not cheap! If I recall correctly, it's already over 40,000 per square meter. Your husband is truly good to you."
After hearing this, Xu Wei raised her head, filled with joy.
"That's for sure, my husband is so good to me."
"No wonder Xu Wei was so calm when talking about assets of over a hundred million earlier; it turns out her own net worth had already exceeded ten million."
"Moreover, we can analyze from this point that your husband's assets are definitely over a hundred million."
