“Ah?”

Li Jinwen froze for a moment, then feigned calmness and said, “Well, that, um, okay then, it’s a deal, we’ll sell it to you, you guys, transfer the money to us!” “Okay, please wait a moment,” Manager Song stood up and left the VIP room. Once the door closed again, Li Jinwen, both anxious and angry, said, “What are you doing, why did you suddenly make me decide!”

“I had no idea what to say, it nearly killed me!”

Lin Mo couldn’t help laughing, teasing her, “It’s nothing, just thought that you just now looked… so silly, haha…”

“You’re laughing!” Li Jinwen’s cheeks were bright red as she placed her small hand on Lin Mo’s waist.

“Ow… ow… let go, it hurts…”

“Still laughing now?”

“Not laughing… I was wrong, dear wife… I really was wrong…”

“Hmph!”

Li Jinwen glared at Lin Mo, but then quickly asked anxiously, “Husband, don’t you still have a Guangxu Yuanbao worth around 50,000? Why not sell it as well?”

Lin Mo took out the Sweeping Dragon from his body and said seriously, “I want to give you this coin as a keepsake, after all, this is the first time we’ve made so much money.”

“But…”

“No buts. We have some money now, you don’t need to live so frugally, we’ll make much more in the future…”

“That’s not what I meant…”

“Wife, I know what you’re thinking, you think it’s too valuable, and you want to exchange it for some money, right…”

“Husband, that’s really not what I mean. I just think it’s old and not good-looking when worn, and others can’t tell how much it’s worth. I want you to sell it!”

“If you want to give me a gift, you should buy me gold rings, necklaces, and bracelets!”

Huh?

Lin Mo was completely stunned.

He had never expected this to be what his wife was thinking.

“Humph~~”

Li Jinwen let out a cold snort, and said with a hint of grievance, “What, do you think I’m unsophisticated, that I don’t know how to spend money?”

“When we didn’t have money before, of course, I had to be thrifty. Now that we have money, I can spend money well, okay?”

“And don’t forget, you didn’t buy me the traditional three pieces of gold jewelry when we got married, now it’s time to make up for it!”

Indeed,

Who doesn’t know how to spend money?

It’s all about being frugal, not wanting this and that, this being too expensive, that being too expensive, calling this a stupidity tax, that a stupidity tax, saying this doesn’t fill you up, that doesn’t fill you up.

But if you really do have money in hand, who wouldn’t want to live a little better?

“Buy, buy the biggest ones.”

Lin Mo gently hugged Li Jinwen, kissed her cheek and said, “Wife, from now on, I won’t let you struggle with money ever again, I swear.”

“Mhm, I believe you.”

After a while, Manager Song came back in with a contract and a laptop.

Li Jinwen, with great patience, read through every single clause before handing it over to Lin Mo, whereupon they signed their names.

Since it was a public-to-private transfer, the transfer was very fast, and it wasn’t long before Li Jinwen’s bank card received a notification SMS.

[Dear valued customer, your China Post Savings card account ending in 5116, received a transfer of 1,245,000 yuan at 6:24 AM on November 11, with an available balance of 1,362,000.56 yuan.]

The reason it was 1.245 million yuan received is that Lin Mo had also sold the Sweeping Dragon to the auction house.

The price was 45,000.

It was 5,000 less than the normal transaction price, this was the auction house’s profit.

“Pleasure doing business with you, here’s my card. If Mr. Lin has anything else to sell in the future, be sure to contact me first.”

“Sure.”

“This way please, let me escort you out.”

Song Dajin escorted Lin Mo and Li Jinwen to the store entrance and waited until they turned the corner before he put away his smile and turned back to his company.

“Hiss…”

Li Jinwen took a deep breath, still shaken as she said, “That was nerve- wracking, I kept worrying we’d run into the type you see in novels, those who look down on people.”

“Haha,” Lin Mo laughed and said, “What are you thinking, attitude is the cheapest tool. Even if they despise you in their hearts, they’ll still treat you as beloved as their own father on the surface!”

“Besides, we were not there to cause trouble, so of course, he was nice to you.” Just as Li Jinwen was about to speak, her phone rang with a short, unknown number.

Hmm?

She casually answered the phone and said, “Hello.”

“Good day, may I speak with Ms. Li? This is Ping’an Finance. We currently have a high-interest scheme for large deposits; do you have time to discuss it?”

Beep… beep beep…

Li Jinwen hung up the call.

She hadn’t walked two steps forward when the phone rang again.

“Good day, Ms. Li. This is Auxin Insurance. We’re now offering you…”

Beep… beep beep…

After hanging up again, the calls kept coming.

“Good day, Ms. Li. I’m Li from Rakshasa City Anju Real Estate. We have a property in Chong’an for just over a million RMB…”

In less than 10 minutes, Li Jinwen had received at least eight calls.

Honey, what do we do? It seems like our information has been leaked!”

“Haha, you say that as if our information has always been secure. It’s just that we didn’t have so much in savings before, so no one noticed us, that’s all.”

“So what do we do? We can’t keep taking these calls all day, can we?”

“Simple, just download an anti-fraud app!”

“Really? Will that work?”

“Trust the government. Come on, let’s go look at cars together!”

They casually hailed a taxi and Lin Mo led Li Jinwen to the largest car market in North City District.

Li Jinwen’s phone had the national anti-fraud app installed, and it must be said that the frequency of calls did indeed drop significantly.

It was kind of useful,

but it couldn’t completely block all calls.

Li Jinwen sighed and said helplessly, “Honey, I think I’m starting to experience the troubles of the wealthy.”

Lin Mo smiled and comforted her, “There, there, don’t worry about such trivial things. Look, decidewhat car you want. Once we’ve bought it, I’ll buy you three pieces of gold jewelry!”

What car…?

Li Jinwen shook her head and said, “I don’t know much about cars. That Wuling Hongguang mini seems good; a friend of mine bought one not long ago.” “Shall we just go for that one?”

The Wuling Hongguang mini was indeed a good car, low-priced, new energy, and even came with a Rakshasa City license plate. It was a very good choice. However, Lin Mo felt the car was too small. The back seat was cramped, and it wasn’t suitable for carrying much.

After some thought, Lin Mo pointed to the BYD 4S shop not far away and suggested, “Why don’t we go to BYD first? I’ve heard their electric cars are pretty popular lately.”

“Plus, we don’t necessarily have to buy an electric car; we can also consider petrol cars.”

“After all, if we’re going to take long trips, electric cars still leave a bit to be desired.”

Li Jinwen nodded, “Okay, I’ll leave it to you; I don’t know anything about cars.” The BYD 4S shop was crowded; to the uninitiated, it might look just like a market.

Nearly every table was occupied by a salesperson, writing configuration lists and calculating on-the-road prices for customers.

After Lin Mo and Li Jinwen entered, no one offered them tea or even greeted them.

Customer service was indeed pretty average.

But Lin Mo was there to buy a car, not enjoy the service, so he quite enjoyed the lack of staff fussing around him.

He pulled Li Jinwen to the front of a car and, after opening the door, said, “Please get in, princess. Let me tell you about this car’s features and price!”

As a 30-year-old middle-aged man, Lin Mo often watched various car reviews during his idle moments, dreaming of one day owning a new car himself.

He certainly didn’t have as much money as the rich, but he likely knew more about cars than they did.

This was a common situation,

leading to many jokes online, like the one about a wealthy person who, after buying a car on a poor friend’s recommendation, couldn’t help but remark, “You poor blokes are really something. You don’t have money, but you sure know more than anybody else!”

Just as Li Jinwen had settled into the car and Lin Mo was about to introduce the interior, his phone suddenly rang.

Checking the caller ID, he saw it was Principal Liu Meihong from Future Star Primary School.

“Why would she suddenly call me?”

“Hold on, wife. It’s the principal from our daughter’s school.”

Lin Mo’s brows furrowed slightly, and without hesitation, he answered, “Hello, Principal Liu. This is Lin Mo speaking.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the serious tone of Principal Liu saying, “Mr. Lin, could you please come to the school right now? There’s been an incident involving Xiaoxiao.”
