As Li Se’s voice fell, Manager Feng and the others turned ashen. The person who had just declared they would eat an excavator was none other than Manager Feng himself.
Now that Shang Zhifeng had arrived, his bet was lost.
“I… I…” Manager Feng’s face was full of tears. This was more terrifying than being arrested.
“Eat it for me!” Li Se said coldly.
Manager Feng immediately crawled towards the excavator and began to gnaw on it. However, with his teeth, he definitely couldn’t bite through it.
The others also started gnawing.
But it wasn’t long before the police arrived and arrested Manager Feng and the others.
Shang Zhifeng did not bother Li Se further. He merely suggested they have a meal together next time and left with his secretary.
The demolition price here naturally rose from five hundred to five thousand. Shang Feng Group had originally offered five thousand per square meter, but Manager Feng had pocketed it all.
“Xiuxiu, they’re going to demolish here. Let’s go, I’ll arrange a place for you to stay.” Li Se took Fang Xiuxiu’s hand and walked towards where the car was parked.
About half an hour later, when Fang Xiuxiu arrived at the Clear Water Bay villa, she was stunned. She quickly said, “This house is too big, I… I can’t live here.”
Li Se said seriously, “Look, this villa of mine is collecting dust. If you don’t move in, no matter how good the house is, it’s useless. A house without people is prone to accumulating gloomy energy over time, which is very unlucky for the owner. Furthermore, all sorts of bad luck will follow, such as evil spirits and foul energy. If a house isn’t lived in, ghosts will move in. It’s precisely because the house lacks human presence that these unclean things can take advantage of the situation.”
He spoke so eloquently that Fang Xiuxiu almost believed him. So, she nodded, “Alright, I’ll tidy up the house now.”
“It hasn’t been lived in for too long, you won’t be able to clean it all. Shall I call a cleaning lady to come and tidy up?” Although Li Se didn’t have the cleaning lady’s number, he called the property management directly. The property management immediately arranged for a cleaning lady to come over.
Upon entering, the cleaning lady exclaimed repeatedly, “Oh my, I’ve cleaned for quite a few villas in Clear Water Bay, and your setup is the best. You’re also very handsome and beautiful. You truly are a match made in heaven!”
Fang Xiuxiu blushed a little at the cleaning lady’s praise.
Li Se chuckled and said, “Auntie, I’ll give you a generous tip later!”
Since the cleaning would take a long time, Li Se decided to take Fang Xiuxiu out and help her move. Moving also took quite some time.
By the time she had fully moved in, the cleaning lady had also finished cleaning, and the villa was much cleaner.
“From now on, this will be your home,” Li Se said to Fang Xiuxiu.
Fang Xiuxiu whispered, “I’m just staying here temporarily.”
Li Se hadn’t decided who to bring to live with him, but now he didn’t have to think about it. Fang Xiuxiu was the most suitable.
After the cleaning lady left, Li Se directly pulled Fang Xiuxiu into his arms, his hands also becoming quite restless.
“Mmm…” Fang Xiuxiu moaned softly, her pretty face flushed.
After they had been intimate for a while, they went out to eat.
The restaurants near the villa were relatively high-end. The main clientele for these restaurants were the wealthy residents of the villas, and a single meal could easily cost thousands, or even tens of thousands.
Li Se and Fang Xiuxiu chose a table by the window. The environment of the restaurant was very good, and there weren’t many people. Soft music was playing in the restaurant.
“My spot has been taken by someone else?”
An displeased voice sounded nearby. A man in a white suit walked over.
The restaurant manager apologized profusely, “Young Master Ren, they arrived first today. Otherwise, I would have arranged a better spot for you?”
He was also somewhat vexed. Although this Young Master Ren preferred to sit at this spot, he didn’t always do so. Moreover, there were so many empty seats in the restaurant. He felt as if the man was deliberately looking for trouble, but given the other party’s status, he couldn’t say much.
“I just like sitting at this spot!” Ren Yunfei pointed at Li Se and Fang Xiuxiu’s table.
“But…” the manager was about to say something.
Ren Yunfei interrupted him, “I said, I want to sit at this spot. Just arrange it for me. As for these two, they look like they don’t have much money. Throw them out!”
The manager looked conflicted.
Li Se frowned and asked, “Did you buy this spot exclusively?”
“No!” Ren Yunfei shook his head.
“Then on what grounds are you asking to throw us out?” Li Se scoffed.
“Kid, do you know who I am?” Ren Yunfei sneered. “I just like sitting at this spot. If you’re sensible, you’ll move aside obediently, otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite!”
“How will you be impolite?” Li Se detested people who thought too highly of themselves.
“It seems you’re not planning to give it up, are you?” Ren Yunfei narrowed his eyes.
“Yes!” Li Se nodded affirmatively.
“Manager Cheng, do you know what to do now?” Ren Yunfei looked at Manager Cheng beside him.
Although Manager Cheng knew this was difficult, he still walked up to Li Se and Fang Xiuxiu, “You two, why don’t you switch seats? You can’t afford to offend this Young Master Ren.”
“Did you hear that? You can’t afford to offend me,” Ren Yunfei said proudly. He then revealed his true intention, looking at Fang Xiuxiu and saying, “Beautiful lady, would you like to have a meal together? If you come with me, you can eat at such high-class restaurants every day…”
As he spoke, he reached out to touch Fang Xiuxiu.
*Crack!*
“Ah!”
Before he could touch her, his wrist was grabbed by Li Se. With a twist, the sound of dislocated bones could be heard.
“My hand…” Ren Yunfei screamed.
“Quick, send Young Master Ren to the hospital!” Manager Cheng shouted immediately.
Someone immediately carried Ren Yunfei away.
“You just wait! This matter isn’t over!” Ren Yunfei yelled.
After Ren Yunfei left, Manager Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and said to Li Se, “Sir, I apologize for what happened today. You should leave quickly. You cannot afford to offend this Young Master Ren.”
“Thank you for the reminder, but it’s not necessary,” Li Se shook his head.
“Alas…” Manager Cheng saw that the other party wouldn’t listen and didn’t say anything further. He turned and left directly.
After eating their fill, Li Se was about to leave with Fang Xiuxiu when his pupils suddenly contracted. He couldn’t help but stop in his tracks.
“Li Se, what’s wrong?” Fang Xiuxiu asked confusedly.
Li Se didn’t answer Fang Xiuxiu. Instead, he stared intently ahead. He saw a somewhat portly man enter the restaurant. This person was unremarkable, but in his hand, he held a glass box containing a medicinal herb!
“It’s actually Four Symbols Gu Zhi!”
Li Se was startled. This was a medicinal ingredient for making an antidote. This antidote could make one immune to all poisons, and the Four Symbols Gu Zhi was the most crucial ingredient. This kind of herb was extremely rare. He had thought it would be difficult to encounter, but he hadn’t expected to see it here.
This Four Symbols Gu Zhi, I must have it!
