Chapter 1247: Chapter 1247
"Ms. Liu, long time no see!"
Ignoring the villagers around him, Li Hao quickly made his way to the front of the clinic.
With a briefcase under his arm, he cleared his throat and smiled.
But his eyes seemed to have hooks, longing to see through her clothes.
"Oh, Tie Dan, you’re looking quite dignified now; you’ve struck it rich, haven’t you?"
Feng Xian leaned against the door, smiling.
Her stunning face made people feel like a spring breeze was blowing through.
"Not rich, just some small dealings, Ms. Liu... Is this your house?"
Glancing at Xiao Cui as she walked inside, Li Hao cleared his throat and started to move inward.
"I’m a widow, why would I build so many houses? This is Lin Yifan’s clinic, but it’s not open yet."
Xu Fengxian had to go inside as well.
She sat right next to Xiao Cui.
Crossing her legs, she blocked Li Hao’s intentional approach.
"Oh, it’s Lin Yifan’s. Well, it’s a pity, really. He was our village’s first university student. It’s a shame he didn’t carve out a path outside, but I get it; it’s tough and exhausting out there, and not everyone can make a name for themselves. Returning home isn’t bad; you can live a lifetime with your back to the sky, your face to the ground."
Li Hao pulled up a chair and sat opposite Xu Fengxian with a smile.
He opened his bag, took out a pack of Hua Zi, and stuck one in his mouth.
"What’s so amazing about having money? Ever heard of ’to each his own’? Yifan just loves his hometown; he wants to do good here."
Xiao Cui already had no favorable impression of Li Hao, and now he was openly discussing Lin Yifan.
This upset her, so she retorted.
"Xiao Cui, you haven’t changed a bit, still as pretty as ever."
Finally managing to interact with Xiao Cui, Li Hao quickly complimented her with a smile.
"I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with Lin Yifan; it’s just that it’s a pity for a college graduate like him. When he was young, he didn’t take his studies seriously and has paid the price for it over the years. But don’t worry, we’re all neighbors; I wouldn’t just watch him earn a pittance in the village."
Li Hao coughed lightly and continued.
"How about this, when he comes back, I’ll talk to him. I’ve been developing overseas these past years, and now I’m shifting my business back home. I’m short on people, especially drivers. Let him drive for me; I won’t treat him badly."
"You’re thinking of having Lin Yifan as your driver? How shameless."
Xu Fengxian sneered; this guy really had some nerve.
"Sister-in-law, you’ve never been out there. You don’t know, but the driver is often the most trusted person to the boss. I’m helping him here; I’d give him at least ten thousand a month, and let him expand his network and maybe do some side business."
Li Hao puffed on his cigarette.
"Keep dreaming; Yifan would never stoop to driving for you."
Xiao Cui rolled her eyes at him.
Speaking without holding back.
"Xiao Cui’s right; it’s tough outside. Home is better. Plus, isn’t he developing the village and supporting hometown construction? It’s a good thing, and we ought to support it. How about this, I’ll discuss with Lin Yifan and invest some money without asking for anything in return—just consider it my contribution to the village."
Li Hao smiled along, his eyes never leaving Xiao Cui’s face.
The blend of Feng Xian’s charm and Xiao Cui’s youth was simply enviable.
"Oh, Brother Li, how thoughtful of you. Since you’re speaking of investing money, how much are you planning to put in?"
Xu Fengxian suddenly patted Xiao Cui’s leg with a smile.
"We’re neighbors, so it wouldn’t be appropriate to put in just a little. I’ll start with two hundred thousand yuan. If more is needed later, we can discuss it."
Li Hao pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Two hundred thousand is quite a bit. How about you transfer it to me first, and I’ll give you a receipt?"
Xu Fengxian got up and took a notebook out from behind the counter.
This move stunned Xiao Cui for a moment.
"Sister-in-law, I’m investing in Lin Yifan... This..."
Li Hao hadn’t expected Xu Fengxian to play such a hand.
"I’m the nurse here, and since he’s not around, what I say goes. Didn’t you say you didn’t want anything in return? Then hand over the money first. Surely a big boss like you wouldn’t lack that kind of cash?"
Xu Fengxian chuckled softly.
"Well... It’s not like that... I definitely have the money... But I wouldn’t carry so much cash with me."
Li Hao explained awkwardly.
"Who uses cash these days? You can do a mobile transfer via WeChat or Alipay."
Xu Fengxian took out her phone and placed it on the table.
This action made Li Hao’s face turn even more embarrassed.
He was frozen on the spot, not knowing what to say.
"Tie Dan, why are you hesitating? It’s just two hundred thousand yuan. If you don’t trust me, you can transfer it to Xiao Cui."
Turning the conversation, Xu Fengxian offered, making Xiao Cui catch on immediately.
"Yeah, transferring to me is fine. When Yifan comes back, I’ll pass it to him."
Xiao Cui placed her phone on the table, smiling sweetly at Li Hao.
"Um... um... I just returned from abroad, didn’t I? The money I have is all in foreign currency... Yes, foreign currency, so I can’t pay right now. But don’t worry, in two or three days my money will be available, and not a penny will be missing."
Li Hao’s feeble explanation made Xu Fengxian and Xiao Cui burst into laughter.
His embarrassment was palpable, making him wish he could dig a hole and hide in it.
"Vroom..."
Just when Li Hao was at a loss for words, a roaring sound came from outside.
Following that, a never-before-seen pickup truck, like a tank, stopped next to the BMW.
The once-impressive BMW instantly looked small.
Its appearance sparked everyone’s curiosity.
"Yifan, you’re back."
Seeing Lin Yifan jump out of the truck, Xu Fengxian and Xiao Cui rushed to greet him.
He merely nodded and went to the medicine cabinet.
He picked up four incense sticks, relit them, and glanced at Li Hao.
"I’ll head home first."
Without acknowledging him further, Lin Yifan just wanted to go find Xizhu now.
Even after he disappeared, Li Hao couldn’t utter a word.
Rubbing his hands awkwardly, he looked at the behemoth and suddenly had an idea.
"I wonder why our village’s first college student is driving a construction truck. It’s not comfortable for running around. How about I gift him a small car for ease of travel?"
Li Hao crossed his arms, face full of pride, having found a way in.
Unexpectedly, behind him, Xiao Cui, holding her phone, stared in astonishment at the information displayed.
"Ford F650, a pure imported luxury vehicle, with a factory price of 2.6 million yuan, known as the most expensive pickup truck in the world. And Yifan’s car is clearly modified; it must be worth even more."
"Oh, Tie Dan, having traveled abroad as a big boss, you don’t even recognize such a luxury car?"
Xu Fengxian’s voice floated over, making Li Hao’s face turn crimson.
At that moment, he truly regretted coming back.
