Devouring Stars, becoming Luo Feng's golden finger
#50 - Changes in the Luo Family
Yangzhou City, Qingfeng Residential Area.
The residential area was bustling with people coming and going, and luxury cars were everywhere, making it seem extremely lively.
Villa No. 98.
Luo Hongguo was chatting and laughing with a group of middle-aged people. Even though these middle-aged people were wearing casual clothes, their eyes still revealed majesty, clearly indicating that their identities were not simple.
"Brother Luo, the weather is so good today, why don't we go fishing? I heard that a large fishing ground has just opened north of the city, and there are many big fish in it," a friendly middle-aged man said, putting his arm around Luo Hongguo's shoulder.
"Fishing?" Luo Hongguo was a little tempted. He used to work so hard, where would he have time for entertainment? Not to mention fishing, which is a time-consuming and expensive activity.
Now, his eldest son has become a big shot among martial artists, and his youngest son has also made a considerable name for himself in the economic field. Various banks send people to give gifts and invite him to dinner from time to time, just to hear Luo Hua's economic 'opinions'.
He and his wife don't have to work at all, and they basically spend their days leisurely at home. After a long time, it really gets a bit boring.
Going out to play seems pretty good? Luo Hongguo thought to himself.
The middle-aged men were overjoyed to see Luo Hongguo's tempted expression and seized the opportunity to say, "There are many ways to fish, such as-"
On the other side of the villa, in the small courtyard, Gong Xinlan was playing mahjong with several plainly dressed ladies.
The table was full of fruits, snacks, and drinks.
Although those ladies were actually not young, they were all fair-skinned and beautiful, looking very wealthy.
In contrast, Gong Xinlan herself, although she had been recuperating at home for a few months and had eaten a lot of Blood Crystals to improve her physique, and her complexion was much better than when she looked like she was in her fifties, the strands of white hair between her temples and the wrinkles that even light makeup couldn't completely cover made the age gap between her and those ladies who looked only in their twenties at least a generation.
Gong Xinlan didn't care at first, playing mahjong, happily winning money, and the ladies kept complimenting her on her good skills, good luck, and great performance, but when one of the ladies inadvertently mentioned an essence that could eliminate wrinkles, her mind moved slightly, and she couldn't help but inquire about it.
"Sister Yu Ting, is there really an essence that can eliminate wrinkles?"
The beautiful lady called Yu Ting smiled slightly and said, "Of course there is, how could I deceive you, Sister Xinlan? My family runs this business. Look at my skin. I'm over forty years old now, but my skin is more tender and elastic than an eighteen-year-old girl's."
"That essence must be very expensive, right?" Gong Xinlan's eyes lit up. Which woman doesn't love beauty and being pretty? If she had the chance, she would also like to restore her youthful appearance!
"It's not expensive, a bottle of essence is only a little over a million," Yu Ting chuckled and said, "If you want it, Sister Xinlan, I'll send you a few bottles tomorrow."
"A little over a million a bottle?" Gong Xinlan was taken aback, but she didn't lose her composure too much, after all, she had been in contact with so many good things and important people in the past few months that she was now barely accustomed to luxury items.
"How could I be so embarrassed to let you send it to me? I'll transfer the money to you," Gong Xinlan said with a smile after she recovered.
As she spoke, she picked up her phone, entered five million, and transferred it to Yu Ting, still feeling a little heartache in her heart. After all, the mindset of a poor person cannot be changed so quickly. Even though she has a full two hundred million in her card just from the pocket money Luo Hua gave her, five million is not even a hair.
But despite the heartache, Gong Xinlan still transferred the money quite generously. She understood in her heart that her sons would be even happier if she was willing to spend money. If she was stingy and frugal, that would only be adding trouble to her two sons.
Although Gong Xinlan was not very clear about the achievements and status of her two sons, especially her eldest son Luo Feng, Gong Xinlan was very clear about one thing, and that was—their family would never have to live a hard life again.
Yu Ting, who was next to her, dissuaded Gong Xinlan twice and then didn't say much, but she felt a little regret in her heart.
If Gong Xinlan was willing to accept her kindness, that would also be a favor. Being able to have the Luo family owe a favor, even if it was just a very small favor, would be worth hundreds of millions.
Spending a few million on costs to gamble for a favor from the Luo family would be a huge profit.
Inside the villa, the young ladies from the ladies' families were drinking tea, chatting, and watching TV. But obviously, they were all a little absent-minded.
Since Luo Feng's reputation spread to the martial arts circle, forces and families with a little energy knew about this genius powerhouse Luo Feng, and also knew that Luo Feng was not married, and Luo Feng's younger brother was not married either.
So soon, they took action.
In a few days, the owners of many villas in Qingfeng Residential Area were replaced by another group of people, and the residents were basically martial arts families and wealthy families.
Then they came to the Luo family as neighbors.
Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan were bored at home, and they were naturally happy with the arrival of this group of middle-aged men and ladies who could talk and provide emotional value. After a while, they became familiar with each other.
After they became familiar with each other, the ladies would bring their daughters to visit from time to time. The daughters of those ladies were also shrewd and considerate, calling them "Sweet Aunt Xinlan" and "Uncle Luo" in sweet voices, and some would even make delicious desserts for the couple to taste.
With this set of tricks, how could Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan, who had no experience and had never enjoyed any blessings, resist? Naturally, they were coaxed to be happy and radiant all day long.
Luo Feng had been cultivating hard outside and didn't know much about this matter, and he didn't want to waste time understanding this kind of thing. He basically just ate a simple meal and left when he came home. As far as he was concerned, as long as his parents were happy, he would not interfere and force his parents to change according to what he wanted.
Luo Hua, who was often at home, knew very well in his heart that the reason why these people were like this was entirely to please their two brothers, no, mainly to please his eldest brother. Although he had played quite a few tricks with stocks and ranked in the top ten in this field, this world is ultimately a world where power is supreme.
Just as the villa was lively.
A blue and white streamer streaked across the sky, decelerating after reaching above the villa.
Although the sound of the No. 1 fighter jet in action is very small, it is generally not noticeable unless you deliberately pay attention to it, but this premise is that you don't do it deliberately.
The problem is, besides Luo Hongguo and his wife, who in the villa isn't someone with ulterior motives?
In the courtyard, several middle-aged men who were discussing fishing methods with Luo Hongguo, as well as several ladies who were playing mahjong and chatting with Gong Xinlan on the other side, and several wealthy young ladies who were drinking tea and watching TV in the villa living room, but were actually looking out the French windows from time to time.
