116 Lu Qi’s Trump Card
The seafood buffet restaurant they went to was not far from the school. In the nearby commercial district, this was one of the highest consumption places. The average price of 150 yuan per person was a bit too expensive for most students. But with Wang Heng and Lu Qi in the group, it didn’t matter.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, the rich aroma made everyone drool. Charcoal-grilled oysters, salmon sashimi, scallops with vermicelli, pan-fried steak, salt and pepper mantis shrimp… there were too many delicacies to take at will.
So, the four boys hurried into action. By the time they returned to the table with their various harvests, Lu Qi had also returned. But she didn’t take any food, just a tray with five glasses of beer.
“You can’t just eat without drinks.” As she spoke, Lu Qi distributed the beer to everyone.
Wang Heng, Wang Ke, and Fu Hanwen exchanged glances, and then Wang Heng took action, taking the glass of beer in front of Tang Hexing and putting it aside.
“Sister Lu, Little Tang can’t drink,” Fu Hanwen reminded her very seriously.
Lu Qi was a little confused. “Not even one glass? And this is just beer.”
“We recorded what happened after he drank a glass of beer last time…”
As Fu Hanwen spoke, he took out his phone. However, before he could open a certain video saved inside, the phone was snatched away by Tang Hexing.
“Just eat properly, don’t expose my shortcomings!”
In front of the beautiful and generous mature woman, Tang Hexing didn’t want to destroy his image.
Lu Qi guessed that what was recorded on the phone was probably the embarrassing appearance of this little boy, so she changed the subject lightly, “It’s okay if you don’t drink. There are drinks and Haagen-Dazs over there to cut the grease.”
Tang Hexing breathed a sigh of relief. “Okay, okay, thank you, sister!”
Beside him, Wang Heng picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of oyster, and ate silently.
The other roommates also quickly quieted down and buried their heads in the battle.
Originally, there were many topics to discuss among the boys, but with such a beautiful sister like Lu Qi sitting in front of them, they were a little nervous. They managed to chat a few words, but the topics all revolved around Wang Heng.
After a long while, Tang Hexing, Fu Hanwen, and Wang Ke went together to get new dishes. While waiting in line for Haagen-Dazs, they finally chatted freely.
Fu Hanwen suddenly asked, “What do you think is the relationship between that Sister Lu and Teacher Wang?”
Tang Hexing nodded in agreement. “I think so too.”
Wang Ke looked confused. “What are you talking about? What kind of relationship is it?”
Fu Hanwen: “Are you stupid? Of course, it’s an adulterous couple!”
Tang Hexing reminded him, “Little Fu, be more refined. This is a high-end restaurant.”
Fu Hanwen coughed twice. “Sorry, my fault. It should be said that they are in a consensual relationship between a man and a woman.”
Wang Ke sighed with emotion. “I thought we were kindred spirits at first sight. I didn’t expect, I didn’t expect, he actually likes such an old woman…”
Tang Hexing didn’t like hearing this. He immediately retorted, “Sister Lu isn’t old at all. She looks just like a senior sister in our school!”
“That’s your problem, Little Tang,” Fu Hanwen reminded him. “In Little Ke’s eyes, even a female classmate like Fengjia Miaomiao is an old woman.”
Tang Hexing: “…That’s true.”
Fu Hanwen said again, “Actually, whether she’s old or not isn’t important. Haven’t you noticed that that sister looks very rich?”
Tang Hexing: “…If I say I’m not envious, do you believe me?”
Fu Hanwen: “Hehe, what’s the use of envy? Hurry up and learn from Teacher Wang!”
**
While the three were chatting, the two at the dining table also began to communicate verbally. It was just that, compared to the leisurely chat between roommates, the words of this man and woman were full of sharpness…
Wang Heng couldn’t help but ask first, “How did you find me?”
Lu Qi: “I was hesitating at your school gate, whether to ask someone where your dorm is or call you directly. But while I was hesitating, I happened to run into you guys. What a coincidence…”
Wang Heng’s feelings were quite complicated. Obviously, no matter what, he couldn’t escape Lu Qi’s door-to-door attack today. The only difference was the location of the attack.
Lu Qi stared at him and continued to whisper, “The money has been received. According to our previous agreement, you can resign and leave at any time.”
Wang Heng picked up a piece of salmon and said while chewing, “That’s good.”
But after a few seconds of silence, Lu Qi said again, “But I don’t want you to leave.”
Wang Heng swallowed the salmon in his mouth and asked, “Why?”
Lu Qi looked serious. “Because I believe that the miracles on you are definitely more than these. Besides writing code and speculating in Bitcoin, you can definitely bring me more surprises.”
Wang Heng: “…You have to believe in science and stay away from superstition.”
Lu Qi shook her head. “No, not superstitious at all. This is trust. Just like we said before, I believe in you. You will definitely be able to bring me more profits in the future.”
Wang Heng carefully reminded her, “The trust we talked about only referred to Bitcoin investment, nothing else.”
Lu Qi: “But I also want to ask you to invest in the future. Still the old rule, give the money to you, and give you one-third of the profits. The more I earn, the more you earn. I won’t treat you badly.”
Wang Heng struggled, “Sister Lu, you don’t need me to help. The investment method is very simple. Buy houses, new houses with good locations and complete facilities. Buy as many as you can. Whether it’s the Imperial Capital, Magic City, Shen City, or Rongdu here, as long as it’s a house in a big city, it’s fine. Buy quickly while you can afford it now. Investment is that simple.”
Lu Qi retorted, “You have more than 800,000 now. You can buy a small apartment in Rongdu. So, will you buy it?”
“I…” Wang Heng was instantly choked.
Of course he wouldn’t buy it. Although buying a house in these two years would definitely make a profit, he knew more than one investment method that could earn more than this.
Observing Wang Heng’s expression, Lu Qi said leisurely, “You have better projects, but you don’t want to take me along. That won’t do.”
Wang Heng gritted his teeth. “Sister Lu, as long as I resign, you can’t order me around. Whether it’s okay or not is not up to you.”
As soon as his voice fell, Lu Qi’s face froze. After a long while, her eyes suddenly turned a little red.
Wang Heng panicked instantly.
This consistently calm mature woman rarely revealed a fragile side. Her lips trembled, and she said softly and gently, “Please, okay…”
From childhood to adulthood, from the first timeline to now, what Wang Heng couldn’t stand the most was a girl crying pitifully. This was simply more deterrent than holding a knife to his neck. Especially a beautiful girl. Although he had experienced it more than once, he still couldn’t build up resistance.
Lu Qi suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist—the force was very small, just gently pinching, but in his head, it was no different from a naval gun bombardment.
Wang Heng panicked completely.
