"Alright, Madam, I'll have someone do it for you. It probably won't cost as much as 15 million. I'll transfer it back to you..."
Luo Beishi waved his hand. "It's nothing, it's just a small amount. It'll only cost 10 million at most. You can use the remaining 5 million to renovate your retirement home."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Chen felt a pang of sadness. "Young Madam... this..." He truly needed the money; his eldest and youngest sons had squandered all his savings, leaving him nothing for his retirement.
When his eldest son returned from studying abroad and wanted to start a company, he gave him the money.
This year, his youngest son needed money to get married, and he used up all the last bit of his savings.
His only house is located in the suburbs of Capital. More than a decade has passed, and he has neither sold it nor let anyone move in.
I'll be reaching retirement age in a few years, and the cost of living in Capital is so high...
" Uncle Chen, 5 million isn't much for me, but it's just right for you. I know about your family situation."
Besides, you've taken care of my husband for so many years, shielding him from so many storms. Consider this a token of my respect.
Luo Beishi spoke casually and lightly, uttering these words that brought tears to Uncle Chen's eyes.
"Young Madam, how can you be so kind..."
Luo Beishi finished eating and put down his chopsticks. "No, the word 'kind' doesn't really apply to me. Besides, you've helped me a lot recently, and you deserve all of this."
He's lucky if he doesn't act like a bad guy now; you can't expect him to be a good guy.
As Uncle Chen watched Luo Beishi's retreating figure, his already cloudy eyes began to blur.
I had thought that the latter half of his life would be somewhat bleak.
He wouldn't have misappropriated the manor's funds if the eldest young master hadn't woken up.
Even after retirement, misfortunes will only keep piling up.
His son was no longer a reliable source of support, and they all harbored resentment towards him, blaming him for not spending enough time with them...
Huo Cixiao's manor has been making a lot of noise lately. The maids originally came to work Kaikai, but unexpectedly they ended up losing 15 million yuan. The key thing is that Luo Beishi used this money to build vegetable greenhouses. These things are like a knife stabbing Huo Cihai.
That damned Luo Beishi not only prevented the maid he sent from acting alone!
He gets arrested even for ordering a serving of fried chicken! It's infuriating!
The people in the aristocratic family group were laughing their heads off when they found out.
" Luo Beishi really went berserk, killing like a madman."
"I must say, Luo Beishi is quite interesting."
"What do you think Huo Cixiao would think if he woke up and found his private estate turned into a vegetable garden?"
"With Huo Cixiao's temper, Luo Beishi probably wouldn't even be able to withstand a single punch."
"Nonsense, Luo Beishi is so handsome, are the people who hit him blind?"
"Making 15 million for nothing, and having people farm the land—what on earth was Luo Beishi thinking?"
"You guys don't know how amazing those dozen or so male escorts are. They know how to use their good looks to their advantage, and now they're making a fortune. They've even helped Luo Beishi open more than a dozen gyms."
"I feel like nobody in Capital can touch him."
"Don't say it, upstairs, please don't say it."
"Honey, when you wake up, you'll be able to eat bananas from our own garden."
Huo Cixiao: "..." Are you sure you want to plant this in winter?
Well, he himself doesn't understand, and how can his cheap wife be so certain he'll wake up? Does she know something?
Did they find out he was touching his fingers a couple of days ago?
Actually, he has now recovered to the point where he can move his toes, which is great news.
But he couldn't let his mistress know yet; he wanted to secretly listen to her mutterings.
He felt that his cheap wife must be hiding a shocking secret; she was very mysterious.
My wife always speaks only to the point and never opens up. I've never heard her complain, and I live a very comfortable life every day.
Of course, he wasn't just living a cheap life with his wife; he was doing quite well too.
Aside from not feeling anything, he was actually quite comfortable, not having to go to work, attend meetings, work overtime, or travel for business.
He's getting more and more used to this decadent lifestyle.
He's just giving up like his cheap wife!
How terrifying! It's true that the environment influences a person's mindset; you become like those you associate with!
"Ah, and peaches, pears, plums... I'll have someone cultivate them."
Huo Cixiao: "..." Thank you, you didn't even plant rice, you only know how to plant trees and fruit trees.
If I'm not mistaken, that field used for playing golf... has been sacrificed.
Oh well, he doesn't play golf often anyway, but his wife likes to do things her own way, so let her be.
He's not the kind of man who's mean-spirited. If word got out that his wife couldn't even farm, he'd lose face.
Huo Cixiao rationalized himself again today, completely unaware that he had habitually made excuses for his wife.
Luo Corporation
The company gradually declined, partnerships dwindled, and it sold off its shipping routes in other sea areas to pay off debts.
During this period, they have drastically shrunk to just one company.
The company now has fewer than 200 employees.
Most of them are young interns, some of whom want to get an internship certificate and then leave after a while.
The company, on the other hand, was greedy and didn't want to spend so much money on them.
Luo Bai hasn't been able to concentrate on his classes properly these past few days.
I failed five subjects in the midterm exams.
People on the forum are still discussing him.
"Five subjects? I laughed. No one's going to let him copy, so he'll fail, right?"
"The last time I saw Luo Bai change his expression, it was terrifying! I thought he was a ghost!"
"He's so funny, he still doesn't know that other people hate him."
"Is he shameless? I saw him chatting and talking to a guy who has a girlfriend last time."
"Did you know his grades Luo Beishi? He was first in his major, with perfect scores. I also heard he's going to change his major next semester."
"He's probably invincible now, with no rivals, hahaha!"
Luo Beishi wanted to switch to Business Administration, having heard that their courses were much fewer than Accounting.
After hearing Luo Beishi's words, Huo Cixiao thought to himself, "It's too obvious that you want to slack off."
However, every major has its own difficulties and troubles, and the cheap wife might be making a mistake.
The internet had been quiet for many days, but it became active again in the afternoon.
The international betting is huge now. They're holding a quiz competition at the Capital Gymnasium, where top talents from all over the world will participate. The winner will receive $200 million, and the final round will last three hours.
The announcement stated that the online competition lasted for two hours and registration was conducted on a short video platform.
It consists entirely of multiple-choice questions, with only 10 seconds to answer each question. The questions cover various categories of knowledge, including everyday life, general knowledge, and entertainment.
The tennis tournament begins at 8 p. m. on Friday.
Luo Beishi glanced at the time; today was Thursday, so it would be tomorrow. With those two hundred million, he could get some more fun things for the villa.
