I'm A Baller - Chapter 134
Chapter 134: A Special T-shirt
Lin Weiwei had somehow learned how to deal with Gouzi.
She didn’t even ask. If you want to keep it a secret, then do it. I’ll not ask. Let’s see who gives in first!
Lin Weiwei drove back with shopping bags and didn’t say anything until she reached the hotel.
The greeter helped Wang Yan carry the things upstairs. Then, Wang Yan couldn’t keep her in suspense anymore and started to put things into the big gift box.
There were three items on the bottom of the box —
A box of handmade chocolates, a special envelope from the Shangri-la hotel, and a Cartier Box.
The moment she saw the box, Lin Weiwei’s eyes widened and she pounced on it.
“F*ck! A watch from the Cartier? A blue balloon or Pasha?!”
“Take a look for yourself.”
Lin Weiwei didn’t stand on ceremony. She opened the box carefully and looked at the Pasha.
Cartier’s items were definitely top-notch in terms of appearance. That ring of diamonds looked artistic and luxurious. Most women wouldn’t be able to resist it.
“F*ck! Good for you, Gouzi! You’re really generous. We were wondering what you were planning to give Liu Li as an official gift. You really didn’t lose your style…”
Wang Yan wasn’t that optimistic.
“Actually, this gift is too expensive. If I give it to her face to face, I’m sure San Wan won’t accept it.”
“Oh, you know what you’re doing. You haven’t lost your head.” Lin Weiwei chuckled. He could not tell if she was comforting or teasing him.
However, she continued with some good advice.
“It’s okay. Liu Li is not completely unworldly. She likes pretty things as well. Occasionally, she saves money to buy a big-bran dress or something. This watch is something she’ll like.”
Wang Yan immediately asked for her help. “You said it! Then I’ll leave it to you. When I leave the capital, you can give the gift box to her.”
Lin Weiwei finally came to a realization. “So you’ve been holding back for so long, waiting for me to fall into the trap?”
“Why are your words so unpleasant? What do you mean by falling into the trap?”
Wang Yan frowned and immediately put on a look of righteousness on his face.
“That’s called mutual help between friends! When I pulled you out of the fire, what did I say?”
Lin Weiwei was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but she felt a little comforted in her heart.
Wang Yan was able to openly say that he had saved her life, which meant that their relationship had entered a new stage — they were no longer casual acquaintances; they were good friends who would say whatever they had to say.
It was not easy for a man and a woman to reach this stage. It was already difficult to get used to the differences in personality and gender. More importantly, they didn’t hide anything from each other.
Lin Weiwei did not play any hard-talking and soft-hearted tricks. Once she was touched, she directly patted her chest and said, “Okay! Since you trust me, I will help you with Liu Li!”
Putting the watch back into the box, Lin Weiwei took out the envelope and fiddled with it.
“What is this? A love letter?”
“Of course not. It’s a membership card for the spa. You can all come over for a swim and massage.”
“Oh.”
Lin Weiwei was not very interested, so she put it back into the box.
Young girls had a very low demand for spa massages, so she could not imagine what kind of activities a massage card could do.
Wang Yan smiled evilly and thought to himself, wait until you know the fancy stuff that this card could provide; then you’ll be envious!
…
Layer by layer, he placed snacks into the gift box and quickly filled the entire space. He closed the lid with a ribbon, and finished the work.
“I’ll put this box in your trunk later. After I leave to Star City, you can take it back to the dorm and give it to Liu Li.”
“Okay, don’t worry.”
Lin Weiwei agreed without hesitation.
At this moment, Wang Yan truly realized the importance of a bestie.
If a bestie were to cause trouble for you, they would badmouth you behind your back, criticize you for the smallest mistake, and persuade your girlfriend to break up with you if there was a problem. That would be f*cking scary.
If a bestie were to assist you, you didn’t need to do anything. Even if you made a small mistake, she’d find another explanation for you.
From a woman’s point of view, she must be wary of her bestie as if she was fire or a thief.
From a man’s point of view, he should do his best to suck up his girlfriend’s bestie.
You have to put your heart into it if you want to take good use of something.
Of course, don’t go too far with sucking up.
…
When he carried the box downstairs and put it in the trunk of Lin Weiwei’s car, Lin Weiwei suddenly began to mumble.
“Oh my, I can’t drive around these two days. I have to park my car in the parking lot for the teachers. I got stuff worthy over 300,000 yuan here. I’m nervous…”
“Take care, bye!”
Wang Yan closed the car door for her, waved his hand, and turned around to leave.
Your value has been used up, so I won’t serve you anymore.
Hr made Lin Weiwei so angry.
But she couldn’t do anything about it.
If it weren’t for the special relationship between them, she wouldn’t have accepted this kind of job. Since she had accepted it, she had to do it no matter what.
Damned Gouzi, you’re sure I’d do your bidding, right?
Yes… right?
..
As Lin Weiwei carried a pile of snacks and cakes upstairs, Wang Yan returned to the hotel, went to the spa to take a bath and massage, and went to bed before 9 o’clock to catch up on sleep.
Today was really exhausting. From yesterday until now, he had not really closed his eyes.
Ever since he got the system, it was the first time that Wang Yan felt so tired.
However, even though he was tired, everything that happened today was memorable. It was an experience that Wang Yan had never even dreamed of when he was a poor loser.
In fact, he should have poured a glass of red wine and sat in front of the French window to savor it or reflect on it. However, Wang Yan was too tired, so he simply fell asleep.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already the morning of the 27th.
He habitually opened the system to take a look. Although he had had a good rest, he didn’t got any new effects. On the other hand, his experience points had increased quite a bit.
After he bought the [ Lucky roulette ], his experience points had reached 719/2500. He had spent quite a lot in the past few days.
The final payment of 100,000 yuan for the flower sea had been transferred to Chen Xiang the day before yesterday.
When she received the money, the designer felt relieved, but also a little disappointed.
As a service company, she always had trouble with getting the final payments.
Chen Xiang’s appearance was not bad, and her temperament was even better. For many times she had been harassed with the suggestive invitations — “I’ll treat Miss Chen to dinner tonight. Let’s talk about the last payment.”.
Chen Xiang would never agree to anything improper, but she still had to go to the dinner. This was the helplessness of reality.
It was common for her to throw up after getting drunk at these dinners. Even though she was good at dealing with them and had never suffered a big loss, she would feel mentally and physically exhausted. She often felt that money was hard to earn, and shit was terrible to eat, but she had to eat it.
Wang Yan’s had given her a big order, and Chen Xiang expected to receive an invitation from him to meet again.
To be fair, among all the clients, Young Master Wang was definitely the outstanding one. Therefore, she didn’t feel so repulsive about the idea of meeting him again.
In fact, she felt a little expectant.
If Young Master Wang gave her half of his romantic thoughts that he had showered on the flower sea, maybe..
However, after waiting for a few days, she didn’t get a message from Wang Yan. When it came to the agreed closing date, she was about to contact Wang Yan to test the waters, but got a report from the finance department, “Sister Xiang, the final payment has arrived!”!
Chen Xiang was stunned on the spot.
Young Master Wang, you’re so punctual… I’m not used to it…
Anyway, no matter what Chen Xiang thought, the money was all paid off. Wang Yan did not speak to her again, and didn’t even bother to reply to the her thank-you message.
…
Next was the spa membership card, which cost him 200,000 yuan.
Experience Points: 749/2,500.
Next was the nightclub spending, including 5,500 yuan of minimum consumption + 20,000 yuan radar detection + 144,000 yuan Ace of Spades + 30,000 yuan presidential suite deposit. It was a total of 200,000 yuan.
Experience points: 749/2,500.
Yesterday, when bought some clothes and snacks and spent less than 80,000 yuan, which was just enough to push his experience points to 777/2,500.
In terms of cash, he got 620,000 yuan in deposits + 100,000 yuan in reserve balance + 350,000 yuan in salary = 1,070,000 yuan.
In the end, the nightclub only cost him 30,000 yuan. The rest were earned back through the [ freeloading ] special effect. Including the 80,000 for shopping and 200,000 for the spa card, the actual cost was 310,000.
Therefore, Wang Yan now had a total of 760,000 yuan in cash.
Alas, no matter how much he spent, he couldn’t use it up. It was so annoying!
He brushed his teeth and washed his face, then went downstairs to eat breakfast.
Somehow, the girls didn’t came here today to enjoy the free breakfast.
Wang Yan sent a message to Liu Li, “What’s happening with you guys? I’m going to the library later. Do you want me to bring you breakfast on the way?”
When he was almost done eating, Liu Li replied: “Sure! Then you might as well bring more. The girls who came to have morning practices haven’t eaten yet!”
That’s easy. Wang Yan immediately started the shopping spree.
The free breakfast buffet in Shangri-la was only for the in-house eating. It was not allowed to be taken out, but Wang Yan had his privileges.
He used three meal vouchers and packed a huge pile of food. Feeling a little guilty, he gave them 200 yuan of his daily 500 yuan allowance and called a porter to help him carry the bags to the entrance of the Emperor Dance.
As the school was about to start, it was much livelier than before. There were more people than during the summer vacation.
Many students who woke up early saw Wang Yan leisurely stroll into the school followed by a hotel porter who carried the packing bags with the logo of the Shangri-la Hotel. They all sighed silently.
Oh, this is a young man from a rich family…
Which beauty of our Emperor Dance is taken?
When Liu Li, who had her hair pulled up in a bun on her head, rushed out, the people suddenly came to a realization.
Oh, it was actually goddess Liu of the classical dance class!
Wang Yan felt awkward under those nosy gazes. He asked in puzzlement, “What’s going on? It seems many people know you.”
Liu Li hugged Wang Yan and rubbed her face against Wang Yan’s new shirt. She smiled and raised her head.
“A lot of people know me… I’m a good dancer among my peers!”
Well, well, this proud tone… was really rare!
Wang Yan grabbed her bun and kissed her on the forehead, pushing her to turn around.
“Okay okay, I know you’re good. Hurry up and take the food back. Eat it while it’s hot.”
“Okay!”
Liu Li nodded and went over to take the bags from the porter. She did not forget to thank him politely, “Thank you, give them to me please!”
The bags were quite heavy and Liu Li’s shoulders sunk under the weight, causing Wang Yan’s heart to ache.
Next time, he would definitely not bring so much food. Let her classmates starve!
Just as he was thinking about it, four or five beautiful women rushed out from the school gate to help Liu Li. They were giggling as their eyes kept darting at Wang Yan.
Oh, is this their new brother-in-law?
Wang Yan watched as they took the bags and chattered, “Wow, so handsome!””So thoughtful!” He was in a great mood and immediately changed his mind.
Well, I’ll bring you more delicious food next time. Please maintain your current aesthetic level!
…
The day passed quietly.
On the morning of the 28th, Wang Yan had just woken up when his phone started to beep with messages.
Liu Li: “Wang Wang, let Dave do some simple decorations in the morning.”
Lin Weiwei: “I’m going shopping with the Little Princess in the morning. Is there anything that you need?”
Han Luzhou: “Old Wang, are you still reading in the morning? Wang Xue is acting as chauffeur for the girls today. I’m going to treat you to a meal and find a place to play basketball later.”
Lu Yuanyuan: “Ahhh! Not cool! Gouzi, you actually gave such an expensive birthday gift to the Little Princess!”
Reyi Nawu: “Wang Wang, why don’t you get a set of Mahjong? I want to play in the afternoon… (Hehe)”
Fu Yushi: “I’ll treat you guys to lunch. Liu Li knows the place.”
Beep, Beep, Beep. Wang Yanhui felt overwhelmed.
In order of importance and urgency, he replied them one by one.
To Old Han he replied, “Get lost. Why do I have to be a substitute for Wang Xue when she’s not around?”
To Yuanyuan, “When’s your birthday?”
To Shishi, “I can’t step into the restaurants that don’t have stars. I got shot in the knee.”
To Nanwu, “No problem.”
To Pingzhi, “If you think I’m lacking anything, then buy it! Pingzhi, you’re an adult now. You have to learn to make your own decisions.”
To Liu Li, “See you at the school gate at noon.”
Beep Beep Beep!
Everyone replied almost instantly.
This bunch of people were no where to see when they were so busy. When they had time, they were like children with bipolar disorder.
Wang Yan took a quick glance at Liu Li’s message. Unsurprisingly, it was a “Bah!”
Little missy, you’re acting like a kitten again when you’re in a good mood. Don’t you think you need a good beating?
Wait!
He ignored the other messages and went to find Dave first.
“I’m going to have a party in the suite tonight. Please decorate the room and bring a mahjong machine over.”
Dave listened carefully and confirmed the requests with Wang Yan one by one.
“What do you need for the drinks?”
“Is the dinner a buffet?”
“The approximate number of guests?”
“Should we add two high-quality computers to the room?”
…
Wang Yan confirmed everything on the spot if he could, and communicated with Fu Yushi if he couldn’t. Finally, everything was settled before 8:30 am.
After a late breakfast, he continued reading.
The two-hour compulsory reading time every day could not be interrupted by anything. The busier he would be in the afternoon, the more focused he had to be in the morning.
When he picked up Liu Li in the afternoon, he saw the young lady had finally put on a floor-length dress together with a T-shirt, and the matching hat that Wang Yan had given her. She greeted him with a charming smile.
Wang Yan stared at her chest in shock. He was stunned for a moment before he pursed his lips and raise his eyebrows. Death Gaze was activated and he stared at Liu Li with it.
“PFFT!”
Although it was the second time she saw this expression, Liu Li was still amused.
Unlike the last time, Liu Li hung leaned against Wang Yan’s shoulder and buried her head in the young man’s arms.
“Wang Wang, you’re so cheeky!”
“You’re the cheeky one, okay?”
After the complaint, he pulled her out of his arms and looked at the T-shirt seriously.
“When did you make it?”
There was a husky dog printed on the chest of the T-shirt.
The dog was looking at him with a crooked smile. With one big eye and a small eye, it raised one eyebrow high. He was very handsome in a silly way.
It was the one that had been saved in Liu Li’s photo album and then became Wang Yan’s contact profile picture when they first met.
