"This is... your villa?" Uncle Qi looked up at the villa. You could say it was grand, but not as grand as the large villas they built on the mountains in their village. You could say it wasn't big either, and he could only shake his head, "This villa only sounds expensive on TV. Looking at it, it's not up to par."
Only he would say such a thing.
The housing prices here were considered high even in Shashi. A villa like this was very expensive.
However, it was naturally incomparable to the self-built houses in the countryside.
Shi Yiling looked at Uncle Qi strangely. Why wasn't it up to par? She wasn't someone who only buried her head in books while studying in Shashi. For example, the villas here, a few days ago her roommate was still talking about how expensive the housing prices were, much more expensive than other places in Shashi. Now, today, she found herself here.
"Indeed, the place is too small to compare with back home," Ming Yi seemed to agree with this statement. He then said, "Anyway, this is just a temporary foothold. Uncle Qi can live here, and there's no rent. I'll just report it to Brother Xiao."
Before returning, he had already reported it to Brother Xiao, and Brother Xiao had naturally agreed.
"Alas, I'll make do with it."
Uncle Qi said as he carried his two large bags and walked in.
"Make do?"
Not far away, a few residents of this villa area were returning home and happened to overhear Uncle Qi's words. They looked at Uncle Qi with strange expressions, especially since Uncle Qi was wearing a dark gray suit that looked expensive, and his two bags were also snakeskin. It was clear at a glance that he was someone whose entire outfit wouldn't be enough to pay for cleaning the room.
In this situation, those nearby who heard Uncle Qi's words showed a hint of disdain.
This person was probably sour because they couldn't have it.
"Let's go, husband." A very delicately made-up girl next to him tugged at his hand.
"Mm... okay." He withdrew his gaze, but his peripheral vision was still on Shi Yiling.
To be precise, if he hadn't seen Shi Yiling, he wouldn't have looked over, nor would he have heard that rather ridiculous remark.
However, the price of that villa was not low, and he needed to pay a little attention. If the other party was someone he couldn't afford to provoke, then so be it.
If he was lucky, perhaps he could get the contact information of that girl he just saw.
However, that country bumpkin earlier was really lucky to have such a top-notch girl to pick him up. How come he couldn't get such a lucky break?
Although the girl beside him was quite good, compared to Shi Yiling, she was a level lower.
Who wouldn't want to experience something better?
As they walked further in, Ming Yi glanced back at the person not far away. He had felt a slight unpleasant gaze just now. Although the gaze wasn't directed at him, how could it escape her sharp senses?
After entering the large house, Uncle Qi felt a little more satisfied. "At least the room is relatively dry and comfortable, more comfortable than the houses in the village."
"Indeed, this is the only advantage of houses here," Ming Yi continued to agree.
After Uncle Qi put his things away, Ming Yi said, "Let's go, Uncle Qi, Lingling. I'll take you to dinner. From now on, you will eat food cooked by the best chefs in the world."
