Chapter 467 This scumbag is too lucky!
She secretly felt sorry for the woman she had met at the airport that day.
—Although that older sister was a bit older, she had an exceptional temperament and exuded a gentle and dignified aura.
Moreover, she could tell that although the woman's clothes did not have obvious brand logos, they were of excellent quality and looked very expensive.
"It's such a pity for that woman. She was spending her own money and still got cheated on by this kind of person."
Ming Nianxi grew angrier the more she thought about it, and her eyes were filled with hostility as she looked at Lu Boyi, a hostility she herself didn't even realize.
Why would someone have such strong negative feelings towards a complete stranger?
Seeing her best friend's sulky expression, Xie Shuyao couldn't help but laugh and tugged at her arm: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, it's none of our business, let's go inside."
Ming Nianxi's family is just an ordinary middle-class family and can't afford to live in such a high-end community.
This house was bought for Xie Shuyao by her parents. Back then, Xie Shuyao's parents were running a small business, and they used almost all of their savings to buy this house.
Fortunately, housing prices were not high back then, and now, the value of this house has increased several times over.
Xie Shuyao's parents only bought a small two-bedroom apartment.
When we bought this house, I told her that...
If she lives here, she'll be surrounded by wealthy people, making it easier for her to find a boyfriend with good prospects in the future.
Xie Shuyao felt both amused and exasperated every time she heard her mother say such things.
Xie Shuyao is a native of Shenzhen. Her parents work in other cities all year round, so she usually lives alone in this house.
Feeling lonely living alone, she invited her good friend Ming Nianxi to come and live with her.
—Since Ming Nianxi also needs to rent a place, why don't the two of them keep each other company?
At first, Ming Nianxi resolutely refused to come; she knew the rent for this apartment must be expensive.
I just joined Licheng, and my salary is low, so I can't afford to share the costs.
More importantly, Xie Shuyao refused to accept her rent no matter what, but Ming Nianxi felt that even if they were best friends, they should keep track of the accounts and she didn't want to take advantage of her for nothing.
In the end, Xie Shuyao persisted, saying that she wasn't used to living alone, since the two of them had lived in the dormitory together for several years and were used to each other's company.
She also suggested that Ming Nianxi cook for her occasionally as a treat, since she herself doesn't know how to cook and is too lazy to do it.
Ming Nianxi couldn't persuade her otherwise, and finally agreed.
She planned in her mind that she would be responsible for the meals and hygiene of the house from now on, as a way of paying off the rent.
After all, she had just started working and her salary was not high, so she had to be frugal and could only repay Xie Shuyao's kindness with her hard work.
The two followed Lu Boyi and Shen Nuan into the residential area.
My gaze unconsciously fell on the figures of the two people in front of me, and I followed them all the way to the building in the middle of the community.
When Xie Shuyao saw the two walking towards the most luxurious building in the middle of the complex, she couldn't help but gape and exclaim in a low voice, "My God, this scumbag is so lucky!"
Ming Nianxi looked puzzled and tugged at her sleeve: "What do you mean? Is there anything special about this building?"
Xie Shuyao explained, "You don't know, this building is the king of buildings in this community. When it was first launched, the price per unit was the most expensive in the entire community."
"And there are no small apartments in this building at all; the smallest one is over 200 square meters, and the living room is so big you could play football in it!"
Ming Nianxi was also surprised when she heard "more than 200 square meters".
—In all her life, the largest house she had ever seen was only a little over 100 square meters; she wouldn't even dare to dream of a house that was over 200 square meters.
The two were surprised for a while before they looked away, picked up their things, and walked towards the building across the street—that was where Xie Shuyao lived.
On the other side, Lu Boyi followed Shen Nuan upstairs. The apartment was on a middle floor, neither too high nor too low, with just the right amount of natural light.
Shen Nuan opened the door, and a classic, antique atmosphere wafted out. The wooden furniture, paired with the elegant decorations, exuded a calm and refined charm.
Shen Nuan leaned against the door frame, pursed her lips, and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Your mother said you like this kind of style. I really don't understand you. You're so young, yet you like this lifeless style. It's not cute at all."
Lu Boyi was already used to her sharp tongue. A faint smile appeared on his face, and he said sincerely, "Thank you, cousin. I like it very much. Thank you for your hard work."
"No need for thanks, it was all your mother's instruction."
Shen Nuan waved her hand, "Everything in the house is fully furnished; you can move in right away. Oh, and should I hire a housekeeper for you, to take care of cooking and cleaning?"
Lu Boyi shook his head: "No need. I can cook for myself and I'm used to cleaning by myself. Hiring a housekeeper would be inconvenient."
Shen Nuan nodded, not forcing the issue: "Alright, whatever you want. What kind of car do you usually drive? What's the license plate number? I'll have someone register it into the community's access control system so it'll be easier for you to come and go in the future."
Lu Boyi replied, "Thank you, cousin. I haven't bought the car yet, so I'll record it myself later."
Meanwhile, in her villa in the capital, Zhao Yizhi hadn't gone out for two days, staying in the courtyard reading and taking walks. But she hadn't seen Lu Boyi at all, and couldn't help but feel a little curious.
That day, when she saw Lu Boxi, she couldn't help but ask, "Boxi, where's your older brother? I haven't seen him for the past two days."
Lu Boxi was leaning against the corridor playing on his phone when he heard this. He raised his head dismissively and said, "Oh, my older brother went back to Pengcheng. He still has a lot of things to take care of at his company."
Zhao Yizhi looked surprised: "Why did he go back so early? I thought he would stay a few more days."
"He's the future heir of our Lu family. The company can't function without him, so of course he has to go back to work as soon as possible," Lu Boxi said with a smile, his tone full of self-righteousness.
Zhao Yizhi looked at him, a barely perceptible hint of disdain flashing in her eyes, and couldn't help but ask, "And what about you? You're also a son of the Lu family, why don't you go help out at the company, instead of insisting on entering the entertainment industry?"
Lu Boxi put down his phone, walked to her side, and smiled as he ruffled her hair: "Silly girl, with my older brother protecting me from the wind and rain, why should I suffer like that? Isn't it better to just do what I like and be happy?"
Zhao Yizhi felt increasingly contemptuous: He really has no ambition at all.
With such a large business empire, the Lu family could easily earn more doing anything than working in the entertainment industry, right?
As the second son of the Lu family, he should have been entitled to one-third of the property. Why is he so unambitious?
Thinking of this, Zhao Yizhi felt inexplicably irritable and uncomfortable, and her face darkened.
Lu Boxi, however, did not notice her strangeness at all and still had a smile on his face. He secretly rejoiced: since childhood, he had been hiding under his older brother's wing and lived a carefree and easy life.
Life is only about 30,000 days long, and he doesn't want to be like his older brother, constantly entangled in company affairs and living such a hard life.
Besides, their family has plenty of money, so surely someone has to know how to spend money and enjoy life?
