Chapter 1173: Chapter 1173: Mr. Feng Is at Home
Su Li sent the email over, and the other party kept confirming repeatedly that they wanted to buy, fearing that someone was playing a prank on them.
Once it was confirmed that Su Li genuinely wanted to purchase, the transaction procedures were completed very quickly, with efficiency that left Su Li amazed. How could it be so fast?
Could it be...
Su Li squinted her eyes a little, and to verify her suspicion, she sent a message to Andre.
Andre and his adoptive parents had settled down in Jiangzhou Prefecture, so finally there was no longer a time difference between them, and the reply speed was quite fast.
[Andre: My sister bought a very good piece of land, it’s fertile ground that can produce delicious food. If my sister builds a house there and occasionally lives in M Country, we would be very happy.]
Seeing this, Su Li was sure that it was her "brother" Andre who helped out. In M Country, he’s quite influential as the owner of the largest casino.
Sheng Lanqing and her biological parents have always lived in Jiangzhou Prefecture and never left, so Su Li knew they still had designs on her, but she never saw them and just kept stalling.
Seeing Andre’s response, Su Li could only grit her teeth and send him a thank you.
Not wanting to chat much with Andre, fearing he would once again bring up the topic of his adoptive parents, she mentioned having plans with her best friends.
Su Li and Lu Xiaomian already knew that a couple of days ago, Xu Haohao took the opportunity to confess to Feng Huaimu, asking him to be her boyfriend, but he just said "I’ll think about it."
These past few days, Xu Haohao has been unable to eat or sleep over that "I’ll think about it," checking her phone every few minutes for any WeChat message from him.
Inside the best friends’ group chat
[Xu Haohao: This can’t go on, it’s disrupting my gaming. I’ve decided, I’m going straight to his house to ask him!]
Su Li almost spat out her tea when she saw this, with Tuanzi across from her looking at her with concern.
Looking at the words on her phone’s screen, Su Li felt a deep admiration from the bottom of her heart.
Xu Haohao is amazing; she confessed, and now she’s chasing for an answer, charging ahead bravely, no matter how thorny the path.
Even she couldn’t do it.
If it wasn’t for the time she truly believed Feng Huaijin had been attacked and killed in M Country, she wouldn’t have taken the initiative to speak up.
Xu Haohao is straightforward and does what she says. Once she decided to ask Feng Huaimu what his decision was, she immediately put on beautiful makeup, changed into her favorite dress, grabbed a small parasol, and drove out.
The Chinese-style villa with a garden located in the southeast corner of the villa community slowly came into view, and just as she mustered up the courage, Xu Haohao hesitated.
Really go ask?
Would this be inappropriate?
Should everyone just play dumb and pretend not to know?
Various thoughts swirled in her head, until Xu Haohao heard an old voice asking, "Miss Xu? Are you here to see Mr. Feng?"
Only then did Xu Haohao snap back to reality and glanced at the speaker, instantly getting goosebumps.
The person was shockingly thin—a skeletal frame with skin stretched over it, eyes bulging as if they would pop out, lips dry like parched leaves—it made Xu Haohao feel entirely uncomfortable.
If it weren’t for the clothes, Xu Haohao would have thought she’d seen a ghost.
"Are you the butler?"
The clothes looked like those of a butler.
The butler nodded and smiled, making Xu Haohao feel even more like he was a skeleton, tempting her to run away.
"Please come in, Miss Xu. Mr. Feng happens to be at home."
