Chapter 7: The Primary Goal Is To Give Lin Ruowei A Home!:
Ye Manman was walking hand in hand with her best friend in Zhengda Plaza. The two were chatting and laughing when suddenly, a couple holding hands walked past them.
“Wait, isn’t that Ye Fan?” Ye Manman recognized him immediately. After all, during her college days, Ye Fan, who was considered quite popular, had always been her crush.
“Manman, do you know that handsome guy?” Her best friend, who had also taken note of Ye Fan, was impressed by his looks.
“Yeah, his name is Ye Fan. He was my classmate in college,” Ye Manman replied with a hint of bitterness. “Ye Fan and Lin Ruoxue have been together for four years. Look, they’re still holding hands when they go out.”
“Hold on!” Ye Manman’s eyes widened in shock. “That’s not Lin Ruoxue… That’s her sister, Lin Ruowei!”
Lin Ruowei had attended Fudan University, while Ye Fan and Lin Ruoxue studied at Magic University. However, because of her sister, Lin Ruowei had visited Magic University often.
Moreover, Lin Ruowei’s beauty and grace surpassed even Lin Ruoxue’s, who was known as the campus belle. Because of this, Ye Manman and Lin Ruoxue’s classmates had a deep impression of Lin Ruowei.
Her best friend quickly caught onto the crucial detail. “Manman, are you saying that guy ended up with his girlfriend’s sister?”
Ye Manman nodded. “Yes.”
“Wow, that’s some next-level stuff.” Her best friend’s worldview seemed shaken. “Manman, your classmate Lin Ruoxue is so pitiful. Her boyfriend and her sister are sneaking around behind her back, shopping together, holding hands. That’s brutal.”
“To be betrayed by both her lover and her own sister… that’s too tragic.”
“Manman, you can’t just let those two get away with this.”
“Don’t worry,” Ye Manman replied, a sinister smile creeping onto her face. “I know exactly what to do. Lin Ruoxue, just wait until your reputation is in tatters!”
…
After strolling around until late afternoon, Lin Ruowei picked out a pair of leather shoes for Ye Fan to wear at work, along with two sets of casual clothes for his everyday wear. Ye Fan, in return, chose a dress for Lin Ruowei.
Once they were done shopping, they decided to grab some hot pot. But as they walked through the clothing section, Lin Ruowei suddenly stopped.
“Weiwei, what’s wrong?” Ye Fan asked, noticing she wasn’t moving.
Lin Ruowei pouted and nodded toward a nearby store. “Balenciaga…”
Ye Fan’s eyelids twitched. “Are you out of stockings?”
“I still have some,” Lin Ruowei replied before quickly adding, “But I want to buy a few more.” She looked at him with a playful smile. “Husband, will you buy them for me?”
“Of course, I’ll buy them!” Ye Fan responded. “Stockings are delicate and easy to snag, so it’s good to have extras.”
“Then go inside and buy them for me. I’ll wait for you out here,” Lin Ruowei said with a grin.
“Me?” Ye Fan was a little taken aback. “I don’t know which color or style you like.”
“As long as you buy them, I’ll love them,” Lin Ruowei replied, still smiling.
“Alright, I’ll go get them for you.”
Ye Fan walked into the Balenciaga store, while Lin Ruowei, waiting outside, muttered under her breath, “Little man, you sure know how to play along.”
…
A few minutes later, Ye Fan walked out of Balenciaga holding a branded shopping bag. The two of them then went to enjoy a hot pot meal before heading to the cinema to watch a movie.
By the time the movie ended, it was already past ten in the evening. Since it was late, they decided to head back to Ye Fan’s place.
After graduating from college, Ye Fan had rented a single apartment in the Qingke community, mainly because Lin Ruoxue would sometimes stay with him. The rent was 4,500 yuan per month, which was quite a burden for Ye Fan at the time. After all, he had just graduated, and half of his monthly salary went to rent.
But now that he had the system, rent wasn’t an issue anymore. Before long, he would have his own house in the magic capital.
He had recently made a fortune in the futures market and would be earning at least five million yuan. With that amount, he could easily buy a home in the city.
Once he owned his own house, he would truly have roots in Modu. Now, with a wife and a family, his primary goal was to make money, buy a big house, and give Lin Ruowei a stable home.
At the Qingke community, after finding a parking spot, Ye Fan dragged Lin Ruowei’s suitcase and led her toward Apartment No. 18.
“This is it,” Ye Fan said as he unlocked the door and carried the suitcase inside. He switched on the lights, and Lin Ruowei stepped in behind him.
“It’s very clean,” Lin Ruowei said as she familiarized herself with the layout of the single apartment.
“Xiaofan, do you have any large bags at home? Bring them to me quickly.”
Ye Fan, puzzled by her request, asked, “Weiwei, what do you need a bag for?”
