Real or Fake Missy : I Have a Piece of Godly Land Novel - Chapter 129
Chapter 129: Living Together
He looked at his watch.
“It’s getting late. We should go now. Where’s the wine I asked you for?”
Jiang Xing tilted his head and looked at the clock on the wall.
“It’s still early and you’re leaving now?”
“We have to go back to collect the furniture.”
“Collect the furniture? What the hell!”
For a moment Jiang Xing couldn’t follow Lu Qi’s train of thought.
“Yeah, we went to buy furniture together just now.”
“You guys are living together?! It’s progressing so fast!”
Cheng Ling was stunned by the words ‘living together’ that her face turned red. She was never conscious of the feelings between a man and a woman.
For the past 18 years, she had been working hard to study Chinese medicine and farming.
After hearing Jiang Xing’s words, Cheng Ling suddenly felt that she now had an explanation for her occasional odd emotions towards Lu Qi these days.
However, Cheng Ling didn’t dare to believe it and didn’t want to face it.
She had suppressed this emotion.
Seeing the slight change in Cheng Ling’s expression, Lu Qi glared at Jiang Xing. “Don’t talk nonsense.”
Lu Qi grabbed the wine that Jiang Xing had prepared for them and left.
When he got in the car, he observed Cheng Ling for a while. Seeing that she looked normal, he asked, “Were you angry at what Jiang Xing said just now?”
Cheng Ling shook her head. “I’m not that petty. It was just a joke.”
“Okay.”
Lu Qi just replied with one word and drove off.
The bottle of wine that Jiang Xing had chosen for them was a red wine worth 350,000 yuan.
The price of this bottle of wine was not particularly expensive. But what was special about it was that most of the wines produced in the same year had become collectibles. They were no longer available in the market.
Jiang Xing got the wine from an auction sale in Germany two years ago.
The red wine of this year did not taste so good. But it had the advantage of being produced by a good brand, so it could be considered a unique bottle.
Cheng Ling did not know much about wine. Seeing that Jiang Xing and Lu Qi both thought it was good, she swiped her card and bought it.
Over the years, Cheng Ling had saved a lot of money by treating patients and saving people. Moreover, she sold a lot of expensive medicinal herbs in the market.
Therefore, she was actually a rich lady, a very rich lady.
On the way back, the two of them inexplicably did not speak. Thus the return journey became especially long.
In the area at the back of the mountain where Cheng Ling lived, cars could not be driven in. So they could only park the car at the entrance of the Cheng family’s home.
When Cheng Ling and Lu Qi arrived, they saw a big truck there. Many workers were busy moving furniture.
The furniture was well-packed, so there was no need to worry about any damage.
Cheng Ling took the bottle of wine.
“I’ll go back first.”
Lu Qi nodded. “Okay, I’ll go check on the layout of the villa.”
The awkward atmosphere between the two of them after they left the winery did not seem to have dissipated.
Cheng Ling shook her head to shake off the nonsense before entering the house.
Xie Ying was sitting on the sofa in the living room, facing the television. Her favorite television drama was playing on the television, but it was obvious that Xie Ying’s mind was not on it at all. She did not even react when Cheng Ling came back.
“Grandma.”
Cheng Ling called out to Xie Ying and then sat next to her.
Xie Ying finally came back to her senses. “Ling Ling is back.”
“Well, what are you thinking? You were so engrossed in your thoughts that you didn’t even notice I was home.”
Xie Ying picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. The living room instantly became much quieter.
“What else can I think about? I’m still thinking about what to give Old Master Cheng.”
“Grandma, didn’t I say you don’t have to worry about it? Look, I have just bought this.”
Cheng Ling held the bottle of wine for Xie Ying to see. Xie Ying also did not know much about wine, but she knew that this was not a simple wine just by looking at its packaging.
“Ling Ling, this wine is very expensive, right?”
Xie Ying took out her phone and typed the string of English words printed on the box into the browser as she spoke.
“Ling Ling, it’s written on the internet that the cheapest wine of this brand is 200,000 yuan. Where did we get so much money?”
“Grandma, I got the wine through a friend. As I helped this friend of mine a lot in the past, he sold it to me at a very cheap price.”
“Even the cheapest wine is worth tens of thousands of yuan. Where did you get so much money?”
“Grandma, have you forgotten? Didn’t we sell all the ginsengs we dug up previously? You let me save all that money for myself. I’m now a little rich lady.”
“Oh, could those ginsengs be sold for so much money? I thought it was only for a few thousand yuan.”
“No matter how much it was sold for, the matter of the gift has been resolved.”
“That’s good, that’s good.”
Xie Ying held the wine box like she was holding her precious granddaughter. It was so precious to her.
She took it to the room and put it in the cabinet. She was afraid that it would be damaged, so she wrapped it with a blanket.
