78: Chapter 78 Using Superpowers
"Xiao Wan, help me find a few cleaners to tidy up the villa; I plan to move in in a few days."
"Okay, no problem." Lin Xinwan said with a smile.
"Even if you didn't ask, I would have arranged it for you. Plus, I will supervise it personally to ensure my Wei Wei lives there comfortably."
Hearing this, Xu Wei nodded with a smile.
Since the problem was solved, she said goodbye to her childhood friend.
Seeing the two preparing to leave, Lin Xinwan hurriedly called her back.
"Wei Wei, what day are you returning to Jiangning? Let's grab a meal before you go back!"
Xu Wei teased upon hearing this.
"What? Is my Xiao Wan treating me to a meal?"
Hearing this, Lin Xinwan rolled her eyes and patted her chest.
"That goes without saying. Even if you didn't ask, I'd still treat you to a meal, especially since you just helped me make a big profit."
Xu Wei was stunned for a moment, then asked with slight curiosity.
"How much money do you get from this villa sale?"
To satisfy her childhood friend's curiosity, Lin Xinwan didn't hide it.
"Let me calculate... probably over fifty thousand!"
Xu Wei was a bit surprised to hear this.
"That much?"
Lin Xinwan looked at Xu Wei, speechless.
"Big sister, you're already a millionaire; don't go around calling my measly ten thousand or so 'a lot.' That's just discouraging!"
"Besides, is selling houses really that easy? Haven't you heard the saying? 'Either you don't open for business, or when you do, you eat for half a year.' That's exactly our situation."
Xu Wei nodded in understanding.
"Alright, I'll contact you then."
"Okay, I'll wait for your message."
After saying this, Lin Xinwan said to Li Luo.
"Mr. Li, I'll see you to the entrance. Drive safely."
Seeing the Girl so enthusiastic, Li Luo politely replied.
"Thank you."
After the Girl left, the two got in the car and drove out of Jinlan Mansion.
Watching the man driving with one hand, Xu Wei naturally shifted her left leg over.
Then, she said in a very gentle tone.
"Hubby, thank you. You've spent the whole morning looking at houses with me; you've really worked hard."
Li Luo, who was waiting at a red light, was taken aback. He turned to glance at Xu Wei's exquisite face; at this moment, the Girl's face wore a charming smile, and her big eyes were filled with tenderness.
Seeing that the red light had ended, Li Luo turned his head back and said casually while driving.
"It's enough that you have this intention. I've always been generous to my own woman, and of course, I hope my efforts will be rewarded."
Xu Wei naturally knew what reward her man was talking about, and suddenly said in a coquettish tone.
"Hubby, Wei Wei knows how good you are to her. Don't worry, Wei Wei will take good care of you tonight."
"As long as you know. You're hungry, right? Let's go eat."
Xu Wei was indeed a little hungry and turned to look at her man.
"Hubby, what do you want to eat?"
"Anything is fine." Li Luo didn't know what there was to eat around here, so he decided to let her make the decision!
The Girl thought for a moment.
"Hubby, how about we go eat barbecue?"
"Barbecue?" He thought about it.
"Alright, let's have barbecue. Just right, after we finish eating, we can go visit your mom in the afternoon."
The Girl smiled faintly upon hearing this.
"I'll listen to Hubby."
Li Luo looked at her and said.
"Then check TikTok to see which barbecue restaurant has a high rating, and navigate to that one. I don't know which barbecue place is good around here."
After the Girl confirmed the address, the ferrari zoomed off toward the destination.
When the two arrived at the barbecue restaurant, whether it was because it was mealtime or because the restaurant's food was truly excellent, there was actually a line outside waiting to be called.
Li Luo found it a bit of a headache. Damn, how long would they have to wait? He turned his head to tell the Girl they should switch to another place, but before the words left his mouth, he saw the Girl's pitiful expression and his heart softened.
But he didn't want to wait either, so he thought, forget it, might as well use a superpower!
As he spoke, Li Luo pulled Xu Wei directly to the table waiting at the very front.
The table waiting there was a young man and woman. The man wore a pair of glasses and looked younger than Li Luo. As for the woman, she was looking down at her phone, and he couldn't be bothered to look at her.
He guessed they might be a young couple and walked up to them enthusiastically.
"Handsome Guy, can I discuss something with you?"
The bespectacled man looked at him with some vigilance upon hearing this.
But soon, his eyes were attracted by the Girl beside him. When he reacted and realized something...
He hurriedly glanced to his side and found his girlfriend was playing on her phone, not paying attention to this, so he breathed a sigh of relief. If she had noticed, his penniless wallet would have suffered again.
After thinking this, he glanced at the man in front of him and asked suspiciously.
"Discuss what?"
Li Luo saw all the little movements of the bespectacled man in front of him. After all, he used to be like that too, and seeing this now, he felt a bit sentimental.
He immediately spoke up directly.
"Can you sell this spot of yours to me?"
The bespectacled man was stunned.
"Sell it to you? What do you mean?"
Li Luo was a bit speechless upon hearing this and then explained.
"Isn't it your turn next? I'll offer five hundred. Sell this spot to me, understand?"
The bespectacled man was shocked.
"You're offering five hundred just because you don't want to wait in line?"
Li Luo nodded.
"You can understand it that way. Are you selling or not?"
The bespectacled man was very tempted after hearing this, but he was afraid his girlfriend beside him would get angry.
After all, he had promised his girlfriend this barbecue last week. If he sold it now and went to queue again, he didn't know how long it would take to get a meal.
If they didn't eat, his girlfriend would one hundred percent say he didn't keep his word, and in future arguments, she would definitely bring up old scores.
He thought about it and decided to ask his girlfriend's opinion, but before the words left his mouth, his girlfriend's voice came over.
"We've been waiting for a long time too. It's finally our turn, and you're trying to dismiss us with five hundred? Do you think we're beggars!"
Once the woman said this, Li Luo was a bit stunned. Is her appetite this big? Xu Wei had said before that this barbecue place cost about a hundred or so per person; five hundred was enough for them to eat twice. He thought about it.
"Alright then, I'll add another three hundred. Selling or not?"
Seeing that the woman was still hesitating, the man in the next spot in line couldn't sit still.
"Handsome Guy, if they won't sell, I will. I'm just one table behind them, and I only want five hundred."
Hearing this, the woman immediately got anxious.
"Who said we aren't selling? I was just thinking about something. Eight hundred, right? Give it to me, and I'll give you this spot."
Li Luo looked at her with amusement.
"When I offered eight hundred just now, you didn't respond. Now it's five hundred. Are you selling or not? I'll count to three. If you don't sell, I'm buying the table behind you."
"One, two..."
"Selling, selling, selling!"
"Alright, open your payment code, and I'll scan it."
The Girl immediately opened her phone's payment code. Looking at the five hundred that arrived, she was both happy and regretful. If she had known, she wouldn't have hesitated when he offered eight hundred. That extra three hundred could have bought two lipsticks!
Thinking of this, she glanced at her boyfriend who was still stunned, and immediately said angrily.
"Get up and give up the spot quickly. Give them the number plate; we're leaving."
