Chapter 215: Entering the Fire (Part 2)
When Lu Yiming and his friends arrived at the villa halfway up the mountain, the yard was already full of people.
Most of them were neighbors who came to watch the fun.
Among them were Ge Deqiu and his father Ge Youcai, who had just been awakened by the sound of firecrackers.
Next to Ge Youcai, there was an uncle of about the same age as him, named Long Wu, who was also a wealthy businessman. He said in a reproachful tone, "We are residents of the Bihai Longting Villa District after all. When a family moves in, they have to visit their neighbors next door to get acquainted. This family bought a villa halfway up the mountain, but no one knows about it. They really don't know etiquette."
However, although Long Wu said this, he was extremely envious in his heart.
No matter if he is a nouveau riche or not, after all, the boss who can take out 6 million cash to buy a villa is really rich. The chief designer said that no matter whether the cat is black or white, a good cat is one that can catch mice.
Afterwards, Long Wu couldn't help but be curious and said, "I wonder who this family is and what kind of business they do."
Ge Youcai said in a rather contemptuous tone: "I have asked someone to secretly investigate before. The person who bought this villa is said to be a nouveau riche with no background at all. He made some money by opening an Internet cafe in partnership with others. It's nothing special."
In his opinion, Li Quanwang is rich now, but this money is earned entirely by luck. Without a stable career and connections, it will be difficult to sustain it.
In this era, there are many people who have been poor for a long time and suddenly become rich. Even they themselves don’t know how they made their money. Naturally, it is impossible for them to keep it, and there is a high probability that they will lose it in the future.
However, many wealthy people in the business world who have seniority, connections and personal networks actually look down on this kind of people. Even among people from the same class, there is an implicit chain of contempt.
Long Wu was quite disdainful of this: "Bi Hai Long Ting has disappointed me this time. A country bumpkin like this can actually come in and buy a villa. This has lowered our style for no reason."
Ge Youcai felt that what Long Wu said made a lot of sense, and he immediately agreed: "Who says it's not true? If I develop a high-end property in the future, I will definitely set up a resident admission system."
At this moment, the two men suddenly noticed a car approaching behind them, so they quickly moved aside and looked back.
Then, both of their expressions changed.
"Isn't this Miss Lin's car?"
"Ms. Lin is here to congratulate this villa?"
As residents of the Bi Hai Long Ting, they were naturally very familiar with Lin Shuyi's Rolls-Royce Silver Angel.
Thinking of the purpose of Lin Shuyi's visit, they were both so surprised that they were speechless.
Who is Lin Shuyi?
She is the daughter of the richest man in Baiyun!
The current helmsman of Jingwan Group!
The project manager of Bi Hai Long Ting!
This villa caught fire, and Lin Shuyi came to congratulate?
So what is the identity of this owner?
Long Wu's eyes immediately changed when he looked at Ge Youcai, and he complained, "Old Ge, didn't you say that this family was a nouveau riche with no background? Why is Miss Lin here? If this is considered as having no background, then what are we? Tofu sellers?"
It is important for people to know themselves. Long Wu had some idea of how much he could eat. After all, when he was getting ready to move into his new house, even if he went to invite Lin Shuyi in person, she probably would not come to support him.
Ge Youcai was also puzzled: "I don't know either. That's what the person I'm looking for told me. Could it be that this family is not ordinary, so the person I'm looking for can't find out?"
"It's possible. Let's see. If I have the chance in the future, I must come to visit this family and see if I can get close to them."
“That makes sense.”
The two of them put away the contempt in their eyes. Although the fire-entering ceremony held by Li Quanwang's family was particularly tacky and exaggerated, in their opinion at this moment, it was clearly down-to-earth and true to their nature.
Lu Yiming knew nothing about this. He was standing in the crowd and following everyone's line of sight, he naturally saw Lin Shuyi's car.
Lin Shuyi happened to see Lu Yiming, so she got out of the car and walked slowly to Lu Yiming's side.
Lu Yiming smiled and said teasingly, "You are a busy man with so many things to do every day, why are you here so early in the morning to join in the fun?"
Some people with sharp eyes around were even more surprised. The person in front of them was the helmsman of Jingwan Group. With her appearance here, how would the residents of Bihailongting view Li Quanwang's family in the future?
Lin Shuyi came up to Lu Yiming and replied with a smile: "Mr. Li is also a big customer of our Jingwan Group. It is reasonable for me to come and congratulate him."
Lu Yiming carefully looked Lin Shuyi up and down, then said sarcastically: "In The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, Zhang Wuji's mother was right. Beautiful women are the best at deceiving people."
Lin Shuyi heard this, her expression still full of smiles, and she looked quite proud: "I will take this as a compliment from you."
Lu Yiming shrugged slightly, without commenting, and then extended his hand and said, "Let's go up and deliver the gift."
The two of them were holding gifts in their hands. The residents who were watching the fun nearby saw Lin Shuyi coming and were surprised. They all made way for Lin Shuyi.
Lu Yiming came to Li Quanwang's family and bowed: "Congratulations, uncle and aunt, on moving into a new home."
When Li Quanwang saw Lu Yiming coming, he was immediately overjoyed. He came over and gave Lu Yiming a big hug, saying excitedly, "You're finally here."
Lu Yiming nodded slightly and said with a smile: "How is it? It's still nice to live in the villa, right?"
Li Quanwang nodded heavily, smiling broadly: "It's great, it's really great!"
Li Changjian and Huang Jijiao also came forward, expressing their gratitude to Lu Yiming in words.
Just at this moment, Lin Shuyi appeared and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Congratulations, Mr. Li, on your new home."
Although a few people had seen Lin Shuyi before, her appearance in front of everyone still surprised the onlookers, and they began to speculate about the identities of Li Quanwang's family.
The family that could attract Lin Shuyi's personal congratulations was so tacky when they got into trouble. This strong contrast made it difficult for everyone to accept for a while.
Lu Yiming was afraid that Li Quanwang's family didn't know Lin Shuyi and would ask who she was in front of everyone. That would be too embarrassing, so he quickly introduced her to them in a low voice: "This is Lin Shuyi, the beautiful CEO of Jingwan Group. Bihai Longteng is her property."
Hearing what Lu Yiming said, Li Quanwang and his family were shocked.
President of Jingwan Group?
This Bi Hai Long Ting is actually the property of Jingwan Group!
Li Quanwang looked at Lu Yiming with eyes full of doubt.
Lu Yiming made a gesture to keep quiet, then pointed at himself, meaning that he would take care of everything, so that Li Quanwang could stay calm.
Li Quanwang nodded slightly and said to Lin Shuyi with great trepidation, "Boss Lin, please come in and have some tea."
Lin Shuyi smiled and shook her head, then said, "No need to drink tea, I have to go back to work. I hope Mr. Li and his family will be happy living in Bi Hai Long Ting. I'm leaving first."
Lin Shuyi turned and left. Huang Jijiao said to Li Quanwang, "Hurry up and see Mr. Lin off."
Lin Shuyi waved her hand again: "No need, you guys go ahead and get busy."
Although Lin Shuyi left by car, the onlookers could not calm down for a long time.
They came to watch the excitement because the fire-entering process was too rustic and traditional, and they thought Li Quanwang's family was a nouveau riche. But when they saw Lin Shuyi coming in person to congratulate them, they realized things were not simple. They had already begun to speculate about the identity of Li Quanwang's family, and some radical people had even gone home to prepare gifts and planned to visit the house to congratulate them later.
