I'm A Baller - Chapter 221
Chapter 221: Mid-Autumn Festival
On Sunday morning, Wang Yan rode on his beloved little donkey… PFFT… little ramie and pulled Wang Yan to go shopping.
Pulling his hair in the rearview mirror, he felt that he was a little more handsome.
Eh? What’s going on?!
Wang Yan opened his stats panel and found that his face value had inexplicably increased from 77 points to 78 points.
Where did it come from?
Wang Yan couldn’t figure it out after thinking for a while. He happily put it aside and ignored it.
Well, I was still in my puberty. It must be because of my looks. There’s no other reason!
As for why he wanted to buy Wang Yan a gift..
A friend who had the friendship of earning money. Yesterday, she treated Wang Yan to a meal, and today, shouldn’t he return the favor?
Driving straight to Kaifu Wanda Square, 93 was extremely excited, but she was unusually persistent.
“Wang Yan, just accompany me to walk around. There’s no need to buy anything for me. We’ve agreed!”
Wang Yan smiled and said, “A gift has to be given. Regardless of whether it’s expensive or cheap, it’s a token of appreciation.”
“Tch! It’s not that kind of relationship between the two of us. Stop It!”
Wang Yan rolled her eyes.
“Does sister have no money? Next month, when I get my commission, I’ll immediately become a little rich lady! Today, I’ll use my savings to go shopping, and I have a budget of 50,000! I’m warning you, you’re not allowed to buy overly expensive things to ruin my character!”
Wang Yan didn’t reply to what she said. “Sure, after you become a little rich lady, you’ll raise a Little Wolf Dog. In the future, when you have headache or fever, you’ll have someone to comfort you. So you don’t have to be so pitiful.”
“Bah! You’re the pitiful one! You’re even worse than a Little Wolf Dog!”
Wang Yan’s face was red with shyness, but she was very arrogant.
Her home was really simple and crude. Basically, she only had the items that came with her apartment. As for her own things, there were only two closets of clothes, a few sets of cosmetics, and some jewelry that not even worth 20,000 in total.
The worst was the pile of medicine on the bedside table. She had problems of headache, fever and stomachache. She did not know why she had so many problems.
“I’m not lacking anything. I’m just picky about food.”
Wang Yan was very calm. He did not treat 93 as an outsider at all.
“Yes, yes. It’s your honor to be the fourth.”
93 was perfunctory. Suddenly, she gritted her teeth and glared back.
“Back when I introduced you the car, you already knew that we had the same name, and you kept it to yourself. You’re even more cunning than an old fox. Just three? I don’t believe you!”
Wang Yan laughed. “Wow, you could still remember this?”
How could she not remember?
She had a deep impression of him.
“I just realized it now. You b*stard. Back then, you were holding back the bad water and fishing for big fish with a long line! It’s really hard for you to be so slow. In total, you replied to four of my messages in eight days!”
When she thought about it, Wang Yan was filled with hatred. She felt that Wang Yan was simply a devil’s child.
However, she could only blame herself as it was not that she had never seen others played the same trick. Why was it that she could not hold it in when it came to Wang Yan?
“I’m really busy.”
Wang Yan replied as if he was chatting.
“I went back to my hometown to deal with some investment matters. After struggling for five days, I didn’t even manage to go to capital.”
93 was very curious. “Hey, is your girlfriend super beautiful? I feel like you don’t have any intention to develop a relationship with me in the long run.”
During dinner yesterday, Wang Yan had talked about his girlfriend, but he didn’t talk about it in a depth.
Wang Yan smiled and replied, “She? She’s not super beautiful. She’s just an ordinary person, and her figure is much worse than yours. She’s very thin.”
An ordinary person with a 93 points..
Chief Wang’s acting skills were indeed good now.
However, it was true that her figure was not as good as Wang Yan’s. The difference between 85 points and 90 points was not small, and one could clearly feel it.
However, when she heard what Wang Yan had said, 93 did not feel any joy. Instead, she let out a sigh with jealousy.
“Looks like the relationship is really good now… When you were talking about her shortcomings, you actually smiled so calmly!”
Wang Yan glanced at her and said gently, “There will be someone who treats you better than how I treat her. I’m not a perfect boyfriend. The key is to give people a chance. You’re not young anymore. It’s time to think about it.”
“Forget it.”
93’s mood suddenly dropped.
“I’m short of money. It’s impossible for me to find a salary earner, a poor white-collar worker. But rich people are unreliable. It’s difficult no matter how you think about it. Let’s be single for now.”
“It’s not all are unreliable. I’m a big spendthrift, but there are plenty of well-educated and decent second-generation rich people. Don’t generalize.”
“Stop, stop, stop! Stop it quickly!”
93 quickly stopped him. “I can’t stand the way you’re chatting.”
Wang Yan was puzzled. “What’s wrong with me? How else can we chat?”
93 didn’t say anything and turned her head to look out of the window.
She was feeling conflicted.
If Wang Yan kept smiling at her and purely treated her as a friend, she would be very disappointed.
But if Wang Yan treated her as a friend, and he didn’t pretend to be sincere when he chatted with her and cared about her true feelings, she would feel uncomfortable.
A good man?
A bad man?
An attractive man?
No matter what he was, he wasn’t mine. She wasn’t worthy of him. Thinking too much would only cause more trouble.
But…
How could she not think about it?!
“Alright.”
Wang Yan didn’t really understand what she was thinking. He smiled and teased, “Anyway, if you need me, you can look for me anytime, but I might not be free.”
“Tch! Do you really think I’m lacking a man?!”
93 rolled her eyes again.
Wang Yan did not think so. With 93 points in looks, she could be considered a hit anywhere. It was impossible that there wouldn’t be a man chasing after her.
Moreover, her character was very good. It was just that she was used to closing herself up in her daily life, using that polite and cautious mask to show others.
It was probably because she had been hurt in love before…
Wang Yan did not probe in detail. Everyone had their own stories and intersected with each other. It did not mean that they had to be entangled together forever.
The way to make each other feel comfortable was through distance.
After arriving at the mall, Wang Yan’s mood became better again. She pulled Wang Yan and started to shop energetically.
They had agreed on a 50,000 consumption limit, but they only spent less than 10,000 when they went for lunch at two in the afternoon.
Wang Yan rolled his eyes.
However, he did not say anything after all. He rolled his eyes as he accompanied Wang Yan, occasionally giving his opinions.
93 was different from Li Nuo. She was earning legitimate money. Although she had high hopes in her heart, she was not looking for a sugar daddy. So he could not treat her in that way.
Wang Yan finished eating first and watched her eat. Suddenly, he said, “I’ll give you a set of jewelry. Don’t reject it.”
Wang Yan looked up and bit her lower lip. A sense of grievance welled up in her heart.
“I know you have a girlfriend. I didn’t think…”
“What does it have to do with her?”
Wang Yan interrupted her and frowned forcefully. “You can’t bear to spend your 50,000 budget, and I’m too lazy to continue shopping. I’ll give you 40,000, okay? A set, the unit price won’t be too expensive. This is my bottom line.”
The reason why it was a set and not a 40,000 worth of necklace was because Wang Yan had considered the other party’s daily wear.
The whole body was filled with items worth hundreds, and the most expensive was only 2,000 to 3,000. If a 40,000 necklace suddenly appeared, it would not match, and it would easily attract gossip.
If it was a set, the unit price would be 3,000 to 5,000, plus a 10,000 worth of watch. On average, it would not be that eye-catching.
Wang Yan didn’t know if 93 understood, but he didn’t intend to explain.
If everything was explained clearly, as if he was asking for a favor and forcing people to be moved. Even if Wang Yan didn’t like it, he wouldn’t go that far.
After dinner, he went to a few jewelry stores according to plan. He spent 40,000 easily.
When he bought the first piece, 93 still still couldn’t let go. In the end, she was still happy.
Women liked beautiful clothes and jewelry, but buying expensive things didn’t guarantee that they could be given away. The method was very important.
Or he could be like Young Master Wang…
Handsome.
Yes, 78 points, beautiful, Hehe!
At 3 pm in the afternoon, they were finally done with shopping and drove back.
Before he left, 93 suddenly leaned over and gave Young Master Wang a peck.
“Thank you for spending so much time shopping with me. You made me feel like everything was complete. That’s really great.”
“You’re welcome. Bye.”
Wang Yan smiled and waved, sending her into the building.
They went back to their respective homes, and life continued.
…
The moment he returned to the dormitory, Sand Sculpture jumped up, beating drums and gongs to welcome him.
“Brother, you’re finally back. I missed you so much, my dear brother!”
Jade Like’s eyes were filled with tears, and he came up to hug him.
Wang Yan did not move. He turned his head and looked at Squirrel and Dutch Potato.
“I asked you to fix him often. Did you manage to do it?”
“A tree can’t grow straight without trimming!” Squirrel, who was from Star City, said in Dongbei dialect. He raised his eyebrows happily. “Don’t worry, Brother Wang. We’ll beat him once every day. We’ll remember him every morning when we wake up!”
Jade Like’s eyes were filled with tears, and he almost cried.
“Brother Wang, my dear brother, you’re back. Can we stop the activities in the dormitory? I’ve been very quiet recently!”
“Really?”
“Really! If you don’t believe me, you can ask Dou Er!”
Wang Yan turned his head to look at Dutch Potato.
Guo Ziyi nodded innocently. “Brother Jade Like is indeed very well-behaved. He doesn’t dare to talk to girls about things in the dormitory anymore.”
“It seems that the hammering is quite effective…”
Wang Yan nodded in satisfaction. Jade Like was just about to laugh, wondering if he had seen the light of the day. Then, Wang Yan’s face immediately turned stiff.
“In that’s case, we can’t stop taking the medicine. We can’t give the illness a chance to relapse!”
“Hehehe…”
Sichuan Boy was laughing so happily that his knuckles were cracking like a hooligan.
“Hey, where’s Song Chen?”
Wang Yan finally realized that there was one less person in the dormitory.
“I’m going to look for my wife…..”
Squirrel was quick, but his brain was faster. Before Wang Yan could look over, he hurriedly changed his words, “I’m going to look for my sister-in-law.”
Wang Yan angrily scolded, “What nonsense are you talking?”
He angrily walked towards his own bed.
He opened his suitcase and packed up all the miscellaneous items. Then, he took out a cigarette and threw it to Squirrel.
“I bought it for business. It’s for everyone.”
“F*ck! You want to enjoy it with the whole world? It costs 4000, right?”
Squirrel caught the cigarette and recognized it at a glance. After all, it was a famous cigarette from the province.
Sichuan Boy was a chain smoker. When he heard what Squirrel said, he immediately rushed over. “Let me see… Just looking at it isn’t enough. Let’s open it!”
Open it !
He took out a pack and rushed to the balcony impatiently.
Jade Like, Sichuan Boy and Squirrel each lit up the cigarette and started to smoke happily.
Just smoking and not saying anything was not Jade Like’s style. He said to Squirrel with jealousy, “Good for you, are you getting better at sucking up now?”
Squirrel took a deep puff of his cigarette. The best actor, Liang Chaowei, looked into the distance.
“With such a big boss, I don’t have a choice…”
Jade Like and Sichuan Boy were stunned by Squirrel’s words. They thought about it for a moment. It seemed to be the case?
What a pain in the ass!
…
Wang Yan packed his things and was about to read the textbooks to catch up on his lessons when Dutch Potato suddenly asked, “Brother Wang, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Did you buy any moon cake?”
“Ah? Today is the day? !”
Wang Yan was caught off guard.
When he saw the banners of the Mid-Autumn Festival hanging in the shopping mall, he thought that it was about to arrive and was promoting the event. He really didn’t expect today to be the day.
He had been so busy recently that even his parents hadn’t thought about the Mid-Autumn Festival.
He switched on his phone and saw that indeed. WeChat was full of blessings for the festival.
F*ck!
Yesterday, because… uh, because he felt a little uncomfortable after drinking the hot water, his phone was directly turned off, and it had been turned off until now.
Wang Yan didn’t usually reply to other people’s WeChat. When he chatted with Liu Li, it was after 9 pm every night, so there was no problem for him to accompany Wang Yan to go shopping without turning on his phone.
However, today was a festival…
What bad luck!
He turned on WeChat to look at Liu Li’s message. Sure enough, there was a 0:00 am blessing.
“Silly, stupid, bad, stinky, good-looking Wang happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
If I’m not the first one to bless you, please kill the first one!
I don’t want to know at all. Other than me, who else would be keeping time just to be the first one to bless you.
So, no matter where you are, you must have a happy festival!”
Subsequently there were second and third messages.
“Eh? You didn’t reply me… Looks like you’re still in the mountains?”
“Alright, there’s no signal on my phone. Looks like Wang Wang’s Mid-Autumn Festival has been very tough… no matter what, you have to take good care of yourself. I envy you being able to spend the festival with your family, but my parents are ignoring me! (sobbing)”
Although it was obvious that Liu Li was acting cute out of malice, it still made Wang Yan’s heart ache.
Alright, do what you have to do…
Wang Yan placed his phone on the table and immediately began to change his clothes.
After settling everything in three minutes, he grabbed his handbag and rushed out of the dormitory.
He called to book a flight to capital at 6 o’clock and drove straight to the airport.
He went to the VIP parking lot, threw his car aside, and then called Dave to book a room.
“Mr. Wang, unfortunately, all the presidential suites have been sold out…”
“A diplomatic suite is fine, too. It doesn’t matter. Anyway, I’m only staying for one night.”
“Okay, do you need me to prepare some other things?”
“Flowers, Liu Li’s favorite food and wine.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll immediately arrange a room for you.”
Wang Yan couldn’t be more assured when Dave was doing his work. He hung up the call and then called Liu Li.
Unfortunately, she didn’t pick up.
When she was busy, her phone would be silent, so it was normal for her to not pick up. Wang Yan could only leave a message.
“Did you miss me? Guess if there be a surprise today?”
There was no response for a while, so Wang Yan replied to the others’ messages.
He directly stole a bunch of auspicious words with a bunch of emoticons from Na Wu and sent them to a group.
Not only did Wang Yan steal with confidence, he even said to Na Wu, “Group text message? No sincerity.”
Within a few seconds, his phone started ringing.
The girls of the dance group all replied in the same manner, “Group text message? No sincerity.”
F*ck!
They gathered together again for a meeting!
Nana sent a crooked smile emoji and asked, “Since you stole my lines, can you at least think of a different way to express your gratitude?”
Sure.
Wang Yan thought for a moment and sent her a message of blessing.
“I wish you twice the size.”
[ You have been invited to the group chat. ]
Wang Yan did not even have the time to react before she was beaten up by seven or eight girls. Moreover, they even posted pornographic pictures. Can you believe it?!
Chief Wang immediately admitted defeat.
“Ladies, if you don’t go home, come out for a party at night. The seafood bar will be full! Take your time to discuss among yourselves. Bye!”
After all, Liu Li’s relatives’ visit would not do anything bad. Today, I came to save you poor homeless children!
However, Lin Weiwei’s words made Wang Yan speechless.
“We have our own party. All of the guys are more handsome than you. If you dare to come, prepare to be beaten up!”
Who are you trying to scare?
Do you believe that I will increase my look to 80 tonight?!
Not to mention whether they believe it or not, even Wang Yan himself didn’t believe it…
It was just for the sake of saying it.
A man’s cowardice was not a bad thing. No one could always be hard, right?
He was cowing now for revenge in the future. There would eventually be… look who Brother Wang spared!
