3314 You Bought a House in the Capital City?
“Thank you.” Leng Xiaoyao expressed her gratitude, then turned to Mu Beihan with a smile. “Hello, Mu Beihan, nice to see you again.”
“Hello, Leng Xiaoyao, I never expected you to be friends with my brother and Brother Mochen. It’s really surprising.” Mu Beihan replied with a gentle smile. Her attitude towards Xiaoyao was completely different from that when she was arguing with Fan Xiaoyu.
Mu Beihan had no grudges against Leng Xiaoyao. After learning how powerful she was from Mu Yiyang, she had a newfound appreciation for her.
In fact, Mu Beihan wasn’t a domineering person to begin with. She was gentle towards her loved ones, but like a hedgehog with thorns towards her enemies, ready to strike at any moment.
Mu Beihan’s round eyes were fixed on Li Mochen and Leng Xiaoyao. The flames of curiosity in her eyes were impossible to conceal. She was dying to know more about their relationship.
Leng Xiaoyao could easily tell what Mu Beihan was thinking, but she didn’t say anything.
“Can I call you Xiaoyao directly?” Mu Beihan asked Leng Xiaoyao.
“Sure! Then I’ll call you Beihan directly too.” Leng Xiaoyao replied. She already had a good impression of Mu Beihan. After learning that she was Mu Yiyang’s cousin, she wanted to befriend her even more.
“That’s great! By the way, my cousin told me that you have amazing fighting skills. When we both get into the Capital University in the future, can you teach me?” Mu Beihan asked. She didn’t care that they had just met, because she was the type of person who spoke her mind and couldn’t hold back her feelings.
“Beihan…” Mu Yiyang knew Mu Beihan’s personality well, but he still felt embarrassed by her straightforwardness.
“Sure! I’ll come over after the National College Entrance Examination. You can come find me anytime. Let’s add each other on WeChat!” Leng Xiaoyao replied without hesitation.
“Okay, okay!” Excited by Leng Xiaoyao’s agreement, Mu Beihan immediately took out her phone and added Leng Xiaoyao on WeChat.
Mu Yiyang gave a sigh of relief after seeing that Leng Xiaoyao had no objections.
Li Mochen was also pleased to see them become friends, so he had no objections either.
Next, they started ordering food, and Li Mochen mentioned that Wu Wensi would join them.
Wu Wensi was Li Mochen’s friend, and they were all familiar with him, so there was no need to wait for him to arrive before ordering.
“It’s been a while since I last saw him. Although he’s on vacation now, I dare not go see him. They drink too much for me to handle!” Mu Yiyang sighed.
He used to have a great tolerance for alcohol, but after he was injured last year, he couldn’t drink as much as before. He would get drunk after drinking less than half of what he used to, so now he tried not to drink as much as possible, though it was okay to have a little drink when friends got together.
“Xiaoyao, how did you and Brother Mochen meet?” Mu Beihan finally asked.
“We met at the circuit of City Chang, sparred and then had a race,” said Leng Xiaoyao. This wasn’t a secret, so there was nothing she couldn’t say.
It wasn’t too surprising that Leng Xiaoyao and Li Mochen had fought, but the fact that they had raced cars shocked Mu Beihan.
“You can race cars too? What was the result?” Mu Beihan asked curiously.
“We arrived at the finish line together,” Leng Xiaoyao said, not at all worried about Li Mochen losing face. Li Mochen didn’t think there was anything to be embarrassed about either. He wasn’t so vain as to care about his reputation. It was just a fact.
“That’s amazing!” Mu Beihan was shocked. She had seen Li Mochen race before and knew that he was very good at it. However, Leng Xiaoyao could arrive at the finish line with him, which meant that Leng Xiaoyao was as good as Li Mochen!
Mu Beihan was becoming more and more impressed with Leng Xiaoyao.
She couldn’t help but exclaim, “Xiaoyao, you’re too amazing!”
“I’m flattered,” Leng Xiaoyao said.
Not long after that, Wu Wensi arrived. He wasn’t surprised to see Mu Yiyang and Mu Beihan there because he knew them, but when he saw Leng Xiaoyao, he was surprised.
Li Mochen had told him that a friend wanted to renovate an office building, but he hadn’t said whether it was a man or a woman. Wu Wensi had assumed it was a man because Li Mochen didn’t have any female friends.
He couldn’t believe that it was a girl who was around the same age as Mu Beihan and was incredibly beautiful.
In addition, this girl was sitting next to Li Mochen.
What was going on here? What was their relationship? Could it be that Li Muchen had finally fallen in love?
“Why are you standing still there?” Mu Yiyang opened his mouth. He knew that Wu Wensi was stunned because of Leng Xiaoyao, but to avoid making Li Mochen unhappy, it would be better to interrupt Wu Wensi first.
Wu Wensi immediately snapped out of it and walked over with a smile. “Hi, Mochen, Yiyang, Beihan, how should I address this young lady?”
“Hello, my name is Leng Xiaoyao and I’m here to discuss a renovation project with you.” Leng Xiaoyao introduced herself politely and even stood up to show respect.
“Nice to meet you!” Wu Wensi responded politely.
Wu Wensi and Li Mochen were both around the same age of twenty-five. Wu Wensi was tall and handsome, and exuded a sunny vibe.
However, Leng Xiaoyao knew that not many businessmen were truly as they appeared on the surface – sunny and outgoing.
Their inner thoughts were probably reserved and deep. Anyway, he was Li Mochen and Mu Yiyang’s friend, so he shouldn’t trap her.
Upon hearing that Leng Xiaoyao wanted to renovate a property, Mu Beihan asked curiously, “Xiaoyao, did you buy a house in the capital city?”
“I bought a house a long time ago. I just bought an office building today and I’m going to renovate it,” Leng Xiaoyao said without any intention of hiding it.
“What? You’re starting a company?”
Mu Beihan was surprised, and so was Wu Wensi. Wu Wensi thought that Leng Xiaoyao simply wanted to renovate her home.
Mu Yiyang knew that Leng Xiaoyao was starting a company, so he wasn’t surprised. However, he was astonished that Leng Xiaoyao bought an office building.
“Yeah.” Leng Xiaoyao answered.
“I can’t believe it! Xiaoyao, you’re so rich! You bought it right away. How much did you spend?” Mu Beihan exclaimed, looking at Leng Xiaoyao with more admiration.
“The office building is 826 square meters and cost 57 million yuan. I made some money from the stock market recently,” Leng Xiaoyao said, but without any intention of showing off.
The news shocked Mu Yiyang and the others quite a bit.
Mu Beihan swallowed, then excitedly said, “Xiaoyao, you’re my idol from now on. I’m going to cozy up to you.”
