79: Chapter 79 Li Luo's Brother-in-Law

"Oh, oh." The Glasses Man hurriedly stood up.

"Baby, let's go to another place for barbecue then!"

"What barbecue? We're going to eat Malatang. After that, you're coming with me to buy clothes."

The Glasses Man was stunned.

"Didn't you say you wanted to eat barbecue today?"

"I don't want to eat it anymore, is that not allowed? Why do you have so much nonsense to say? Didn't you hear me say we're eating Malatang?"

The Glasses Man felt a bit helpless; if he had suggested something else just now, his girlfriend would definitely have said she'd waited a whole week just because she wanted barbecue.

Looking at the departing couple and the humble manner of the Glasses Man, Li Luo was reminded of himself not too long ago.

Back then, he was the same way, always letting Shen Lin eat the best food first and basically following her every word.

"Hubby, what's wrong?"

Xu Wei noticed her man was dazed and quickly called out to him.

"It's nothing. Let's sit for a while; it should be our turn soon."

"Okay, Hubby."

The two had only been sitting for a few minutes.

The Waiter picked up a microphone and called out.

"Number six is ready for dining. Is number six still here?"

"Here." Li Luo quickly handed over the number plate. The Waiter took it, glanced at it, and led the two of them to their seats.

"You two can just scan the code to place your order." With that, the Waiter walked away.

After Xu Wei scanned the code, she selected a few meat dishes before looking at her man.

"Hubby, do you want to order yourself, or should I do it for you?"

"You order for me. Just get some meat; I don't like eating grilled vegetables."

Li Luo didn't know why, but while he didn't like grilled vegetables, he enjoyed eating them in hot pot.

Hearing her man say this, she added a few more portions of meat. After finishing the order, she asked another question.

"Hubby, do you want to order some lettuce to wrap the meat in?"

"That works."

Xu Wei added a few more portions of lettuce before confirming the order.

Looking at the three types of dipping sauces she brought over, Li Luo only liked the red dry rub; he wasn't used to the others.

When the Waiter served the food, Xu Wei took whatever was grilled and mostly placed it into Li Luo's bowl, only putting a little into her own.

"Alright, alright, eat some yourself. My bowl can't hold any more."

Hearing this, the Girl stuck out her tongue and finally began putting the meat from the grill into her own bowl.

Li Luo took a sip of water.

"Weiwei, once the villa is finished being cleaned tomorrow, let's see what needs to be bought and go take a look then."

Xu Wei gave a sweet smile at his words.

"Got it, Hubby."

After the two finished eating.

Li Luo waved his hand and called the Waiter over to pay the bill.

This meal cost the two of them less than three hundred, making it the cheapest meal Li Luo had eaten in the past few days.

"Hubby, where are we going next? It's only one o'clock, and there's still more than an hour before we go see my mom."

Li Luo turned to glance at her.

"Then it's the perfect time to visit the Furniture mall. We'll see what the house is missing, buy it, and have them deliver it directly. It saves us from having to come back again."

"Hubby, you're so good to Weiwei."

After saying that, Xu Wei leaned against the man's arm, her face full of love. She felt so happy; even though they only had an hour, her man was still accompanying her to look at furniture.

[Xu Wei's Favorability +3, current Favorability 83]

Hearing the system notification, Li Luo was taken aback. As expected, the higher the favorability, the harder it was to increase; it had actually dropped from five to three.

The two arrived at the Furniture mall. Since the villa was fully renovated and move-in ready, most of the furniture was already there.

However, only the master bedroom had a bed; the other rooms were not furnished. Xu Wei mainly came to buy a few beds.

She had curiously asked Lin Xinwan before, and her childhood friend said that if it were fully furnished, it wouldn't be at the price of fifteen thousand per square meter.

"Hubby, do you think these beds I've chosen are okay?"

"Not bad, they look quite nice." Li Luo nodded.

The Girl smiled very happily upon hearing this.

He originally intended to pay, but the Girl beat him to it. He didn't mind; after all, her money was his money, it was all the same.

They got the contact information from the owner so they could call for home delivery at any time.

After everything was settled, the two left the Furniture mall and drove straight toward the hospital.

They arrived at the hospital exactly seven minutes later.

"Sister, Brother-in-law, you're here."

"Yeah. Xiao Jun, how is Mom today?"

"Still the same."

Xu Wei looked at her younger brother and then asked softly.

"Xiao Jun, what time did you get back yesterday?"

Xiao Jun scratched his head.

"I dropped Qing He off last night and got home around eight o'clock. I thought you and Brother-in-law were at home!"

"Your brother-in-law and I stayed at a hotel last night." After saying that, she looked at her brother.

"Contact the Landlord in the next few days to terminate the lease. We're moving in a few days."

"What! Moving?"

"Can you keep your voice down? Don't disturb Mom's rest."

Xiao Jun was startled and quickly said softly.

"Sister, where are we moving to?"

Xu Wei gave a mysterious smile.

"You'll know when the time comes."

She thought about it and added.

"Also, while I'm home these few days, tell Qing He to arrange a dinner with her parents. Our two families should discuss things; it's time to settle your marriage."

Xiao Jun was completely stunned. He had just been thinking about how to bring up the task his girlfriend had given him.

"What are you thinking about?" Seeing her brother dazed, she added another sentence.

"Are you so happy that you've lost your words?"

When Xiao Jun snapped out of it, he glanced at his sister and then said hesitantly.

"Qing... He's... family... said... they... want... one... hundred... and... eighty... thousand... in bride price."

"How much? One hundred and eighty thousand?"

"Yeah, her parents said that's the minimum."

After Xiao Jun finished speaking, seeing his sister remain silent, he was about to say it was fine to get married later when she interrupted him.

"Don't worry about the bride price. I'll chat with her parents in person when the time comes."

As she spoke, she suddenly stuck her tongue out playfully at Li Luo.

"Don't worry, your brother-in-law will make the decisions for you. You just need to invite her parents out."

Li Luo was speechless upon hearing this. Why drag me into this for no reason!

Xiao Jun looked at him, his whole body trembling with excitement as he said.

"Thank you, Brother-in-law! I'll go tell Qing He right now." With that, he hurriedly ran out of the hospital room.

After her brother left, before Li Luo could even speak, Xu Wei suddenly hugged him and gave him a loud 'mwah' on the cheek, intentionally making an exaggerated sound.

Then, in a coquettish tone, she said.

"Hubby, your brother-in-law's happiness depends on you now."

Li Luo reached up and pinched her smooth cheek.

"Didn't I give you three million? That bride price her family wants is just a piece of cake for you."

The Girl very sensibly snuggled into his arms, her tone becoming even softer.

"That's also your money, Hubby! It's not for my own use, and besides, for such a sensitive matter, I definitely have to get your permission!"

Li Luo indeed felt much better hearing this. Helping one's brother was fine, but there had to be a limit.

If she helped mindlessly with everything, the nature of the situation would be different.

Outside the hospital room, a highly excited Xiao Jun was calling his girlfriend.

Perhaps because he was far too excited, his words were somewhat incoherent.

On the other end of the line, Qing He found it all a bit baffling.

The noisy work environment made it impossible for her to hear clearly what he was saying.
