Chapter 249: Chapter 248: Speaking Without Thinking and Getting Hit
Lin Wanwan had completed all the procedures and was just waiting to pick up the car, completely ignoring what Wang Jiali was scheming in her mind beside her.
Normally, it takes about three months to pick up a car, but after Lu Shouyue made a phone call, it became available in just half a month.
Truly, there is nothing in this world thatās unchangeable. Lin Wanwan smiled and thanked Lu Shouyue.
Just as they were about to leave the Porsche showroom, Wang Jiali, driven by jealousy, suddenly shouted at Lu Shouyue, "Hey handsome, do you know the internet celebrity next to you has a messy lifestyle and even secretly has a child? Itās all over the internet, donāt be fooled by her!"
Lin Wanwan turned back in surprise to look at Wang Jiali. This womanās habit of hurting others without benefiting herself indeed hadnāt changed at all. Jealousy truly distorts peopleās appearances.
Itās true that she has a child, but to say she has a messy lifestyle is blatantly throwing mud at her.
Lin Wanwan didnāt waste words and quickly turned back.
"Slap!"
She gave a direct and clean slapānot very forceful, but Wang Jialiās face still swelled quickly, with the five fingerprints clearly visible, ruining her makeup.
Lin Wanwan coldly said, "Keep your mouth clean. People with filthy thoughts see everything as dirty. I didnāt hold you accountable for throwing away my clothes and makeup last time. Do you think Iām a sick cat?"
The people around were first shocked by Wang Jialiās mindless outburst, and then by Lin Wanwanās decisive action!
Thisāstarting a fight over a disagreement, isnāt it way too spicy?
"You, you dare to hit me?" Wang Jiali finally reacted from the shock as the pain set in.
Lin Wanwan grabbed her hand that was trying to hit back and said indifferently, "I hit you for that foul mouth, not satisfied? If you dare to talk trash again, Iāll hit you every time I see you!"
"You, you, youā" Wang Jialiās wrist hurt from being grabbed, and she couldnāt speak coherently. Seeing the eyes of the people around as if they were mocking her, she whimpered and covered her face to cry.
Lin Wanwan let go of her hand, stood up, and no longer paid her any attention, directly walking out.
Meanwhile, Wang Jiali not only didnāt receive any consolation from the Porsche showroom organizers but was instead severely reprimanded, told to have the model contact person replaced, and even lost her jobātruly losing more than she bargained for.
On the outside, Lin Wanwan took off her mask and took a deep breath, feeling quite relieved. After all, she had taken revenge on the spot and wasnāt the one who got hit, so how could she not feel pleased?
Lu Shouyue thought she was angry and comforted her, "Wanwan, donāt take such foolish words to heart. Once youāre famous, there will be a lot of absurd rumors online, not worth even a glance."
Lin Wanwan flicked her hair and gave Lu Shouyue a bright smile, "Of course, sheās not worth my attention."
Then she glanced behind and said to Lu Shouyue, "Mr. Lu, arenāt you leaving with your friend?"
Lu Shouyue shrugged and said, "He has his own car and has to wait until after work to pick up his many girlfriends, no need for me to wait."
Lin Wanwan laughed, "Truly a national husband, so popular with women."
Wang Bochengās father is an internet mogul, and his mother is a second-generation red, living in the same compound as Lu Shouyueās mother.
As the only son of a magnate and being so flamboyant, he naturally attracts a lot of attention from netizens, with many internet celebrities calling him āhusbandā under his social media, thus earning the title āNational Husband.ā
Lu Shouyue laughed and disparaged, "He probably wonāt get married his entire life, always a lover, never a husband."
Wang Bocheng had publicly declared himself an advocate of non-marriage, so those who dated him were well aware, indulging in freedom while young and fulfilling their respective needs.
Lin Wanwan shrugged, uninterested in matters involving someone sheās almost a stranger to.
"Shall we go for lunch together?" Lu Shouyue invited.
"No, I want to go home."
"Then let me give you a ride. Now that youāve got your license, I can accompany you for some practice."
Lin Wanwan was indeed tempted by this proposal and smiled in gratitude, "Then Iāll trouble you, Mr. Lu."
At the parking lot, Lin Wanwan saw the Bugatti supercar again and said, "Itās rare to see you driving this car."
Lu Shouyue replied, "Itās not me driving this car today, itās that guy Wang. Iām driving this Phaeton next to it."
Lin Wanwan took a look and indeed saw Lu Shouyueās usual Volkswagen parked beside the Bugatti.
On the way back, Lin Wanwan drove while Lu Shouyue sat in the passenger seat guiding her. She thought Lin Wanwan would be nervous, but to her surprise, everything went smoothly.
Lin Wanwan may not have other skills, but her mental resilience is strong, especially after becoming a barefoot doctor, her mindset is as steady as a mountain.
She can ride a horse, which is all muscle on flesh, so why would she fear a car made of metal around flesh? Impossible. As long as she memorizes the traffic rules and adheres strictly to them, she believes she can handle a mere car.
After getting home, Lin Wanwan didnāt immediately return to the Great Tang because now there is a time flow difference. One night of eight to nine hours in the Great Tang meant she could stay a day and a half in the modern world, doing many things and learning a lot.
She had been postponing the purchase of wood due to the busy farming season and various trivial matters but could finally do it this time.
For someone like her who buys raw wood online and plays the "wood betting" game, sheās practically pioneering. For those in the wood betting industry, betting is always like a wound that breathes.
"One slice poor, one slice rich, one slice leaves you with only your underwear" is the classic saying in the wood betting circle. Yellow Flower Pear wood bets are the most nerve-wracking.
But all these rules donāt apply to Lin Wanwan. The modern world may lack Yellow Flower Pear wood, but the Great Tang still has an entire forest of it!
After she buys these modern woods, she piles them up in her own yard and secretly swaps them for the Yellow Flower Pear wood she purchased in the Great Tang, completing the wealth transfer without anyone noticing.
But now that thereās no shortage of money, thereās no rush to finish this task at once. Move some today, and some tomorrow, no need to hurry.
As soon as Yellow Flower Pear wood appears in the modern market, it receives frenzied interest from "wood fanatics," and its value is astonishingly high!
Yellow Flower Pear wood and Agarwood, under the hype of timber merchants, have become all sky-high prices.
Take Yellow Flower Pear wood for instance, from 20,000 yuan per ton in 2002 to 8 million yuan per ton now! The raw material is expensive, and the finished product even more so. A set of Yellow Flower Pear wood furniture used to be tens of thousands, now a set for several hundred million isnāt surprising.
Last year, Lin Wanwan bought an entire boatload of Yellow Flower Pear wood in Qiong State of the Great Tang, its value is boundless. If it were directly introduced into the modern market, it would certainly cause a stir in the industry.
Therefore, Lin Wanwan didnāt plan to be so high-profile. Sheās gradually releasing the goods.
Even so, in a small circle within the wood betting world, Lin Wanwan quickly made a name for herself and earned the title of a small wood betting saint.
No matter how she does it, the raw wood bought turns into Yellow Flower Pear wood with distinct tree heart grain and almost no flaws in her hands, absolutely top-notch goods.
