Chapter 56 Allergic to Rich People
Xu Bai was completely baffled. What was wrong with these two? Why were they looking at him like he was a ghost?
Forget it, he couldn't be bothered to pay attention.
Turning around and straightening his collar, and making sure that he hadn't done anything too outrageous lately besides running away from his wedding, Xu Bai walked straight toward Xu Chi, who was having a friendly conversation with Tu Chaoxi.
Tu Yao: !!!
She quickly let go of his hand, rushed forward and blocked their path, glaring at him menacingly!
Tu Chaoxi and Xu Chi immediately stopped talking.
Xu Bai on the other side was also stunned.
What are you doing now?
Despite her innate fear of the male lead, Tu Yao mustered her courage and said, "Um! You... just stand there, don't get too close to us."
Xu Bai was puzzled: "Why?"
Tu Yao raised her chin: "Because...because we're allergic to rich people!"
Especially you, the male lead! Nothing good ever comes from getting involved with you!
Her brother and Xiao Chi are still struggling financially, one is poor and the other is sick; they can't withstand the turmoil of your love story with the female lead, which spans over 1,800 chapters!
Xu Bai:? ? ?
Sister, are you out of your mind?
Look who's standing behind you. One's a top influencer, the other's richest man. And I'm just a good-for-nothing who lives off a family trust and waits to die. I escaped my wedding by helicopter and my bank account doesn't even have more than six figures. And you call me rich?
Xu Bai was about to retort, but seeing the warning look in Xu Chi's eyes, he backed down.
"...Then I'll just walk further away, okay?"
Then he took two steps back.
Tu Chaoxi chuckled and ruffled Tu Yao's hair. As expected of his sister, she gets along with whoever he doesn't get along with.
"Well done, Tu Xiaomao, you've avenged your brother."
"You have no idea how much he tormented your brother when we were filming the short film together."
Tu Yao immediately puffed out her chest and clenched her fist triumphantly.
"Don't worry, with me here, I definitely won't let that guy... let him bully you!"
Xu Chi looked at them, the warning in his eyes fading, and he looked at his nephew, whom he had only met a few times, with a half-smile.
The novel, titled "Chasing His Wife," has 1,800 chapters. It not only provides family resources but also takes his anger out on others.
If that's really the case...
Xu Bai:......
Xu Bai broke out in a cold sweat when he saw that seemingly smiling but actually cold and dangerous gaze.
Oh no, he ran away from his wedding. Is his uncle planning to tear him to pieces...?
After expressing her determination to Tu Chaoxi, Tu Yao didn't forget Xu Chi. She hesitated for a moment and looked over at him.
Xu Chi then withdrew his gaze and smiled faintly: "Is there anything else?"
Xu Bai immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Tu Yao scratched her palm, then mustered her courage once more: "Um... it's like this."
"Didn't you give me some books a few days ago? I've been reading those books every day, and they've been very helpful for my button mushrooms. So I was thinking... to invite you to be my shareholder."
Xu Chi's gaze lingered for a moment.
Afraid he would refuse, Tu Yao quickly added, "It doesn't matter if you don't have money, I do. I'll consider it as your investment in my skills! I guarantee I'll make money, and then... then you'll have money too!"
She spoke more and more fluently and confidently: "And then, I'd like to invite you to move to Crane Village. Since you're contributing your expertise, I'll definitely need your help!"
Xu Bai, who was standing to the side, was astonished. How could this girl be so bold? His uncle made millions or tens of millions in minutes, so why would he care about some button mushrooms?
And they actually said his uncle had no money? If his uncle has no money, then there are no rich people in the world, okay?
We're moving again! My uncle hates crowded places the most!
But the next second, Xu Chi smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Xu Bai:? ? ?
Tu Yao looked delighted: "Are you going to agree to be a shareholder or agree to let me move???"
Xu Chi: "I agree to everything."
They were clearly worried he didn't have money, so they offered to contribute their technology as equity; they were clearly worried he might have an accident living alone, but they said they needed his help and that's why they invited him to move.
Xu Chi thought that most people would find it hard to refuse such kindness.
He was no exception.
And also...
Xu Chi's eyes flickered slightly. If he remembered correctly, every time he saw this girl, his body seemed to recover faster than usual.
So what about her? After meeting him, will she have better opportunities, at least enough to stop her from constantly fearing that she might step into the same river twice?
Two relatively eccentric people might be able to travel together for a while.
Tu Yao immediately made a decision: "Then you can start packing. Ding's parents went to town to see Da Pang today, and we'll pick you up tomorrow!"
...
Back in Crane Village, Tu Yao began tidying up her room.
As soon as I started tidying up the room, I started arguing with Tu Chaoxi.
There are four rooms in total.
She had planned it out long ago: the room on the east side was the largest, most spacious, and best-ventilated, making it suitable for Xiaochi to live in.
Her brother would definitely be worried if she lived with Xiaochi, so the south-facing room was cleaned up for her brother to stay in.
She continued to live in the west room.
Tu Chaoxi looked at the small ten-square-meter room and felt a little uneasy.
"Why did you choose this room in the first place?"
Tu Yao yawned: "I'm just staying here temporarily, so of course the master bedroom should be reserved for the owner."
Tu Chaoxi was silent for a few seconds: "...Listen to me, you go and stay at the one on the south side, I'll stay here."
Tu Yao blurted out a refusal, but was immediately rejected.
Tu Chaoxi said irritably, "I'm your brother. I didn't know you were living in such a small room before. Now that I know, do you think I'd let you stay here!"
Tu Yao shook her head vigorously: "No!"
"I love living here!"
Tu Chaoxi's face suddenly darkened: "Tu Xiaomao, don't you consider me your brother?!"
Tu Yao was stunned for a moment.
"I……"
She lowered her head and thought about it carefully for a moment, then confirmed, "I didn't."
Tu Yao admitted that she didn't treat him as her brother at first because she felt that she wasn't the real Tu Yao.
But at some point, even if she wasn't the real Tu Yao, she would still want a brother like that.
So, deep down, she really hoped that Tu Chaoxi could be her brother.
She had long since unconsciously come to regard him as family.
Tu Chaoxi said in a deep voice, "Since you treat me as your brother, you should learn to rely on me. You can even use me, step on my shoulders to get what you want, instead of pretending to like it when you're clearly wronged!"
Tu Yao couldn't help but hug the pillow in her hands tightly and lower her head...
No one had ever taught her, step by step, how to rely on others.
Tu Chaoxi also let out a long sigh of relief. He never expected that he, who once hated Tu Yao for plotting against them, would now be willing to teach her how to take advantage of others.
Just as the stalemate was at its peak, several staff members suddenly arrived.
“Xiao Mao, your parents just called and said that Xu Chi’s father got in touch with someone during the day. Someone bought this house from him and said that he is giving you the right to use the house. You can live here as long as you want and let whoever you want live here live here.”
"In addition, Xu Chi just contacted the director and said that he would give the master bedroom to his sister and he could just pick any room."
"So... you two stop arguing and come eat! We've been waiting for you two!"
