Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System-Chapter 126: Is There Really Such Immortal Maneuver?
Chapter 126: Chapter 126: Is There Really Such Immortal Maneuver?
"Here’s the thing, Mr. Lin, that ’former colleague’ of mine was taken away by the police because she was engaged in some shady business during work hours. But rest assured, Mr. Lin, she’s already been fired."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi was utterly bewildered, and internally he could only think, "What the hell?"
What kind of bizarre situation is this?
A sales office employee conducting shady transactions during work hours? And she got caught? What kind of crazy operation is this!
Could it be that Xiao Liu reported her?
Seeing the strange look in Xiao Yi’s eyes, Xiao Liu quickly realized what he was thinking and waved his hand with a bitter smile to explain:
"Hey, this has nothing to do with me, Mr. Lin. It’s because she had a conflict with her employer, and the employer himself called the police."
Remembering the last time he saw that female saleswoman, was she with an elderly gentleman, probably in his seventies or eighties?
Was her client that old man? That’s pretty extreme.
And the old man actually called the police to turn himself in? This thinking is really unusual.
He shook his head helplessly; bizarre things happen every year, but this year seems to be more than usual.
Of course, this is just a situation where two people willingly engage, and it has nothing to do with me.
The main thing is that the woman has already been fired, so it has even less to do with him.
After tidying up the villa a bit, Xiao Yi drove them straight to the best home goods store and started a shopping spree.
Of course, the process wasn’t all that smooth.
To Empress Dowager Ye, many things were unnecessary, and she suggested just moving things from the current house to the new one.
To this, Xiao Yi directly refused. Come on, having bought a house worth ninety million, are we really going to skimp on these small household items?
Also, you can’t exactly use an old sheet that’s one meter long on a three-meter-wide bed in the villa, right?
Furthermore, a 49-inch TV from our home would look like a tablet PC hanging in the villa’s living room when viewed from the couch...
After three days of hard work, everything was finally settled around here.
Because the space was so large, on the second day, mom even called uncle, aunt, and big aunt to come over and help out.
And after seeing this luxurious large villa, uncle and others were completely stunned.
Even the second aunt’s family, who had the best living conditions, was left speechless.
Originally, in grandma’s family, only second aunt had the best living conditions because she opened a supermarket. Not only did they live in a hundred-square-meter apartment, but they also had an Audi A4 worth nearly three hundred thousand.
They were very fancy and always had the final say at grandma’s home.
But after seeing Xiao Yi’s villa, the second aunt’s family went silent.
Not only did their usual superior air disappear, but they even picked up brooms to help clean up.
In three days, the entire villa was completely refreshed, full of the warmth of a home.
By noon on the third day, the family was relaxing in the gazebo by the swimming pool in the villa’s yard.
Wearing flip-flops, Xiao Yi came over with a chilled watermelon.
Upon seeing this, the second aunt quickly stood up with a smile to take the watermelon from Xiao Yi’s hand:
"Come, come, Xiao Yi, sit down and rest for a while; you’ve been working all morning!"
"Haha, it’s okay, second aunt, just sit down and wait to have the watermelon."
In response, Xiao Yi simply smiled and didn’t let go, but personally placed the watermelon on the stone table, cut it with a watermelon knife, and handed the first piece to grandma with a smile.
The eighty-year-old old lady immediately beamed with joy. She kept praising her grandson for being so sensible.
Little did she know that just a few weeks ago, during a family gathering, she was criticizing Xiao Yi, her grandson, for being irresponsible and not as ambitious as the eldest grandson.
In just a few short weeks, the grandson who was once irresponsible in grandma’s eyes not only got admitted into Tsinghua University; he bought a car worth over four million and a villa worth nearly a billion!
Now, in grandma’s eyes, no grandson is better than this grandson!
At home, she even brags to others about how much talent and success her grandson has, saying their family raised a great son!
Of course, no matter how grandma acted before or how the second aunt and uncle behaved, Xiao Yi has always been respectful towards them, and this hasn’t changed even after he became wealthy.
Firstly, because they are his elders—grandma, regardless of her nature, is his mom’s mom, so he can only show respect.
Besides, mom often told him that family is family, never count every penny, as family ties are priceless!
Even though Xiao Yi doesn’t always feel this way, to avoid making mom sad, he neither complains about any losses nor about being lectured.
This shows that Xiao Yi has been well-raised.
Now, eating the watermelon from her grandson, grandma couldn’t be happier.
While munching, she didn’t forget to chastise the uncle and others a bit:
"Look at Xiao Yi, make sure those mischievous kids learn from him!"
Grandma was fine, as was uncle; they all lived in the countryside and didn’t have much social standing. Although they knew Xiao Yi was exceptional and capable, they didn’t have a tangible understanding.
To them, it was just that he lived in a big house and drove a good car.
However, second aunt’s family was different. They owned a considerable supermarket, so their perspective was not on the same level as uncle’s.
They knew keenly that Xiao Yi had not only achieved financial gains but had elevated his social status immensely.
They understood deeply that their family lagged far behind Xiao Yi’s family, not just by a little.
From now on, their standing in the family would be second to none.
Sitting nearby, Empress Dowager Ye received a piece of watermelon from her son, feeling both proud and boastful.
Though, she half-complained jokingly:
"You little rascal, always wasting money. Look at this, how tiring it is to clean such a big villa? It’s just your dad and me, and you’ll be off to university soon. What’s the use of us living in such a big villa?"
...
