I Was Stuck on the Same Day For a Thousand Years - Chapter 60

Chapter 60: Life is Wonderful

“Give me the house?” Wu Chen smiled, not surprised. He was just plain, “I help you because of your sister not because of your house. So, there’s no need to repay me.”

“Brother-in-law, I know that.” Li Ruotai said, “Since you are my brother-in-law and we are a family. Brothers have to settle accounts clearly, don’t you think?

“Brother-in-law, if you weren’t there yesterday, I’m afraid I’ll have to lose a few hundred million. In fact, this is nothing. The main reason is that if it wasn’t for your brother-in-law, I would have been kept in the dark, and I might suddenly get in someday!

“Let’s talk about the casino. You not only helped me get back the principal, but also won 130 million. This house is only 100 million. I still gave less~” As Li Ruotai was talking, he changed his voice again, “Actually, I am also planning for your future, brother-in-law.”

“For my future?” Wu Chen asked back.

“Yes!” Li Ruotai nodded, and said again, “Brother-in-law, tell me, although you and my sister are not married yet, my sister is pregnant, and it will be a matter of time before you get married. But brother-in-law, you are still living in the old house, right?”

“I know, brother-in-law. You have always been low-key and capable, but you don’t make it public.”

Li Ruotai praised Wu Chen a bit and continued, “But, my sister will marry you in the future, so you can’t live in the old house, right? What will happen when it gets out? It will make outsiders look down on you, brother-in-law. If you live in my sister’s house, outsiders will talk more. I know that you may not care about outsiders’ evaluations, but… After all, it’s not good!”

Li Ruotai really didn’t think about the consequences when he was impulsive!

But most of the time, he was very intelligent and very talkative! He could make people believe him!

“So, brother-in-law, you must have a decent house, at least one.” Li Ruotai said again, “This is not only for you, brother-in-law, but also for my sister. I’m giving you your wedding gift in advance.”

Li Ruotai knew that Li Ruobing swore not to get married!

Even if she chose a man, she might not marry him. She could only maintain a relationship forever.

So he only said that to look for enough reason to give the house to Wu Chen!

Li Ruotai had considered this matter carefully.

He mentioned that Wu Chen helped him. It could even be said that he saved him, so he had to give back.

Although he knew that there was something wrong with Wu Chen, but Wu Chen was a life-saving grace to him!

After that, he thought repeatedly, should he send money directly?

It’s too vulgar to give money directly. Li Ruotai also knew his situation, and Wu Chen was the man of his elder sister. It’s just plain wrong!

If Wu Chen was implicated, the elder sister might be implicated.

Giving money directly would also have a weird feeling!

It’s as if Wu Chen helped his brother-in-law for the sake of his elder sister, but his brother-in-law didn’t treat Wu Chen as his own.

After thinking about it, Li Ruotai decided to give Wu Chen the villa he had left unused in the East China Sea!

The reason was also very good!

The biggest advantage of gifting a house was that the house was a fixed asset. If he gave money to Wu Chen, and Wu Chen spent some money on his elder sister, there would be entanglements!

But the house sure didn’t!

It was him, Li Ruotai, who unilaterally gave it to Wu Chen!

In addition, this suite was actually Li Ruotai’s best suite in the East China Sea. It was a garden-style villa. He spent more than 10 million yuan just to decorate this suite. The reason why he was so willing to give it to Wu Chen was because… he didn’t plan to move here!

According to his original plan, he would move here before the end of this year.

But Wu Chen’s appearance made him aware of his crisis.

He decided to keep a low profile after setting fire to the Crown Club, and he might even leave Donghai for a while to avoid the limelight, so there was no need to come and live in this suite.

“Fine, you are quite considerate of your sister,” Wu Chen agreed to accept the house.

Wu Chen wouldn’t take things from people easily, that’s called being favored by others.

But there were some that should be collected or have to be collected.

Wu Chen could guess some of Li Ruotai’s thoughts.

And he understood that if he didn’t accept this suite, it would make Li Ruotai uneasy!

One could not be without desires!

Wanting nothing could give people a feeling of insecurity! It would make people think that you have bigger plans! That’s why Wu Chen showed Li Ruobing that he loved money, so… he had to accept this apartment!

In the next ten minutes…

Li Ruotai took Wu Chen upstairs and downstairs. The house was about to be transferred to Wu Chen, so he had to take a look.

After that, the two left Donghai Huafu.

They went to the Housing Authority to transfer ownership!

For transactions that did not involve loans, the transfer was very fast, and the taxes and fees incurred were all paid by Li Ruotai’s card.

If this villa was under Wu Chen’s name, Wu Chen wouldn’t be allowed to pay a penny!

After leaving the Housing Management Bureau, the two separated.

It was already past four in the afternoon.

Li Ruotai had to go back to the club.

Wu Chen went home, back to the old house, putt9jg aside the exercise for now. He had to move!

He immediately moved in!

He was just going to enjoy it.

There was no need to move the furniture, as they were all ready-made in the villa, so he could really move in with his bags. However, his daily necessities and clothes must be moved there. But since there were not many, it was not troublesome.

In ten o’clock at night…

Donghai Huafu, in Villa No. 36…

Basement level, fitness room…

Wu Chen sat on the dumbbell bench covered in sweat, put down the dumbbells in his hands, laid back, and panted heavily. After moving here, he used the few hours before going to bed to fully exercise.

Wu Chen raised his head and panted heavily, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned into a smile.

He thought of the things that happened in the two days of his new life.

Just two days!

He didn’t do any business, didn’t try to make money, just met some people, said some words, and helped a little! It’s just like this, but someone gave him an 8 million sports car, and someone gave him a 100 million house!

Life… was wonderful!

New day, July 10, 2020!

At around 7:30 in the morning, Li Ruobing came to the company early and held a senior management meeting.

It’s not time for work.

But Li Ruobing said during the meeting yesterday to mobilize all the power of the company and find a spokesperson. Early tomorrow morning, all executives would come to the company, hold an early meeting, and report the progress to her!

Li Ruobing was really annoyed to death by this matter!

She was so angry yesterday that she even called Ding Ruilong at noon and scolded Ding Ruilong’s family!

However, Ding Ruilong had a complacent tone of “If you can’t do it, stop making trouble”.

She continued to scold, and he didn’t answer back, which was even more annoying!

When Li Ruobing thought that she might marry such a man in the future, she felt sick and wanted to vomit!

The meeting continued until after eight o’clock.

The elevator entrance on the 31st floor of Tower 7 of the CBD.

The elevator door opened, and the property manager of the office building personally accompanied a mysteriously dressed woman out of the elevator.

This woman was dressed gorgeously and delicately, wearing a big sun hat, sunglasses covering half of her face, and a black mask, as if she was afraid of being recognized by others.

Behind her were two men who looked like assistants and bodyguards.

“Miss Tao, please.” The property manager was very polite, indicating that the reception desk of the Symphony Company was on the left side of the elevator, and then led the way.
