135: Chapter 135 at the Linxin Department Store.

"Damn it! A poor ride-hailing car driver acting like a big shot in front of me."

"Buying a house, my ass! This little brat."

"Not only will I not refund his deposit, but I'll also go over there tomorrow to inspect everything thoroughly."

"Even if the furniture and appliances are fine, I'll find some wear and tear on purpose to make this little brat bleed some money."

"Oh, and he's paying for the house cleaning too. He actually had the nerve to tell me to clean the place earlier. Damn it."

"Tomorrow, either he cleans while I watch him, or he pays up. Dreaming of using the deposit to cover cleaning fees? In his dreams."

After Li Luo hung up, he thought for a moment and then called Ai Shanshan back.

As for whatever the Landlord was muttering behind his back, even if he knew, he wouldn't care. Problems that could be solved with money weren't problems at all.

Of course, this money wasn't for the Landlord, but to be used on the Landlord.

Just as he was thinking, the call connected, and Ai Shanshan's tsundere voice immediately came through.

"Hubby, you finally remembered to call me! Have you almost forgotten about your mistress?"

Li Luo smiled and shook his head upon hearing this.

"Didn't we just talk two days ago? Where is this coming from?"

"You have the nerve to say that! If I don't contact you, can't you take the initiative to call us? Are you so lost in your little girlfriend's embrace that you can't get out?"

"Alright, isn't your hubby contacting you now? Come over to my place tomorrow morning. I'll send you the address in a bit."

Ai Shanshan was a bit dazed after hearing this.

"Go to your place? Hubby, why would I go to your little girlfriend's house?"

Li Luo rested his forehead in one hand.

"My fault for not being clear. I haven't been back for long. Come to the residential area where I'm renting tomorrow. I mainly need your car to help me move."

Seeing this, Ai Shanshan said in surprise.

"You're already back? Should I go over and see you now?"

"No need. I have some things to do since I just got back. Just come early tomorrow."

Only then did Ai Shanshan ask in confusion.

"Hubby, you just mentioned a rental area. Why are you renting a place when you're so rich?"

Hearing this, Li Luo made up an excuse.

"I bought a house before, but it hadn't been handed over yet, so I just rented a place outside."

"Now that the keys are ready, naturally, I'm moving in."

Ai Shanshan finally understood.

"Alright, I'll be there around seven tomorrow morning. But hubby, is one car enough? Do you want me to arrange another one for you?"

"No need. I don't have much stuff, unlike you Girls with your endless bags and luggage."

"Okay then! Send me the address later."

"I'll send it to you in a bit."

"Then I'll hang up if there's nothing else, hubby."

"Yeah, go ahead."

Seeing that the call had ended, Li Luo casually tossed his phone onto the sofa, planning to take a shower and change clothes.

After all, he was going to see the Girl whose favorability was the hardest to earn, so he naturally had to dress properly.

He had just grabbed a change of clothes and was about to head to the bathroom when he suddenly heard the phone vibrating on the sofa.

Buzz! Buzz!

He walked over with a hint of curiosity to check it.

[Ai Shanshan: Hubby, Xuan Xuan says she wants to come over tomorrow to see your new house too. Should I try to talk her out of it?]

[Li Luo: No need. If she wants to come, let her come.]

[Ai Shanshan: OK!]

Li Luo then sent the address over before finally entering the bathroom.

After finishing up, he checked the time; it wasn't even six o'clock yet.

He thought for a bit and decided to head over early. He'd buy a bouquet of flowers on the way to try and increase the favorability as soon as possible.

Li Luo remembered his Duffel bag was still in the Front trunk, so he decided to bring it up first.

If he needed to put something in there later, that tiny space wouldn't have any room.

After putting the Duffel bag in the room, Li Luo picked up his phone. As for the car keys and house keys, they were already in his pocket.

He went downstairs, started the car, and slowly drove out of the residential area.

Once out of the area, Li Luo stepped on the gas and accelerated toward Xinbai Shopping Mall.

Passing a flower shop on the way, Li Luo parked the car and walked inside.

Seeing a customer, the Flower shop owner greeted him warmly.

"Handsome Guy, what kind of flowers are you looking for? Or who are they for? I can give you some recommendations."

"No need. Just wrap ninety-nine Pink roses for me. They must be fresh; don't give me any old stock."

The last time Li Luo bought flowers was for Shen Lin. He had bought eleven roses then, but they had withered by the next day.

Later, he checked online and saw that the leaves at the base were turning black and yellow. Comparing that to the flowers he bought, he realized they were low-quality or had been sitting out for days.

"They'll definitely be fresh, don't worry. Since you're buying so many, I'll definitely give you the best ones. I won't trick you with poor-quality ones."

Li Luo was somewhat speechless upon hearing this.

From the owner's tone, it sounded like if he had bought fewer, the owner would have tricked him with bad ones.

The Flower shop owner continued to ask with a smile.

"Handsome Guy, what's your price range? Different prices mean different varieties of flowers."

"What are the prices?"

"The lowest is eight yuan, and the highest is twenty."

"Then give me the twenty-yuan ones. Remember, they must be fresh."

Seeing how generous he was, the owner nodded quickly.

"Rest assured, I guarantee they're all fresh."

Once everything was ready, Li Luo reached out and took the Pink roses from the Flower shop owner.

No wonder Shen Lin used to always talk about ninety-nine roses whenever a holiday came around.

Li Luo had to admit, they really were beautiful.

But when he had no money, beauty was useless; survival was what mattered.

Only when you have money can you look beyond survival and slowly enjoy the excitement brought by other material things.

For the ninety-nine roses, Li Luo paid a total of 1,900 yuan. The owner gave him an 80-yuan discount.

With this delay, it was already seven o'clock.

He then carefully placed the flowers in the passenger seat and continued driving quickly toward Xinbai.

Seventeen minutes later, Li Luo arrived at the Xinbai surface parking lot.

The sharp-eyed security guard immediately noticed that this was that Young Master's car from last time.

After all, in all his time as a security guard, that was the first person to tell him to look after the car or have his legs broken.

He felt he would remember it for a lifetime.

Even so, his legs still carried him over quickly. There was no helping it; even if his legs were at risk, he truly loved that 300-yuan tip!

"Boss, you're here!"

"Yeah. Look after the car just like last time." After speaking, Li Luo pulled out 200 yuan and handed it over.

The security guard immediately bowed and scraped as he reached out to take it.

"Boss, don't you worry. I'll be keeping an eye on it here every second."

"Mm!"

Li Luo picked up the watch from the door storage compartment and put it on. Then he got out, walked around to the passenger side, and carefully picked up the ninety-nine Pink roses.

Under the envious gazes of the crowd, he walked into the mall.
