I inherited my second grandfather's inheritance
Deng Zihao, the fourth oldest, had probably just finished a game. He turned around, looking at Xu Ning with a hint of surprise.
"Third oldest, you and Wang Yingying broke up?"
Xu Ning smiled, shrugged, and said calmly, "Yeah, we broke up!"
Hearing Xu Ning's words, the three instantly dropped their computers and gathered around, speaking over each other.
"Third oldest, what happened?"
"Why did you break up with Wang Yingying? Weren't you two getting along well?"
"Is it because you can't tutor anymore, and you feel like you don't have much money, so you didn't want to hold her back and broke up with her?"
"There's no need for that. College couples know each other well and make good partners. When you enter society later, who knows how many men the women you meet have been with!"
Listening to their chatter, a question mark slowly appeared above Xu Ning's head.
I broke up with her?
Did you guys get it backward?
"How did you know?" Xu Ning asked, surprised.
Deng Zihao pointed to his phone on the table. "Wang Yingying called me this morning, crying and sobbing, saying that you broke up with her yesterday, and that she felt wronged and sad, wanting to talk to you properly again, she didn't want to break up with you!"
If it weren't Xu Ning, based solely on Wang Yingying's tearful account, they would definitely think the man who proposed the breakup was a scumbag.
But since it was Xu Ning, they naturally wouldn't think that way.
They understood Xu Ning. Xu Ning was a person who valued relationships and wouldn't break up with Wang Yingying heartlessly for no reason.
Their guess was that it was probably because Xu Ning was short on cash and felt a bit inferior, which led him to propose the breakup. He would naively think that it was for the best for everyone.
In that case, they had to try and persuade Xu Ning.
However, at this moment, Xu Ning had a wry smile on his face.
Who would have thought, who would have thought, that Wang Yingying was really such a bitch!
It was clearly her who hooked up with a rich guy and kicked him to the curb.
Yet now she was pretending to be a pitiful little white flower, like a victim!
She was really good at it!
After that incident yesterday morning, Wang Hao, who drove the Porsche 718, probably didn't want anything to do with her either, right?
And now, she wanted to mend fences with him?
Did she really think that he loved her so much that a simple flick of her finger would make him fall at her feet again?
She was really good at dreaming up good things!
"Block her!"
"Yesterday, when I went to find her, she left with a guy who drove a Ferrari!"
"Yes, it was the Ferrari she said I'd never be able to drive in my lifetime."
"I don't think I need to explain the rest, do I!"
Xu Ning briefly explained the situation, and indeed didn't want to say too much about it.
His three brothers were instantly filled with righteous indignation, wishing they could immediately go and teach that scumbag woman a lesson.
Good heavens!
What was wrong with our brother?
He had height, looks, and good character. The only thing was that his family's financial situation was average.
But family circumstances could only be a reference, right? What was important was personal effort.
They believed that with Xu Ning's intelligence and his diligent and hardworking spirit, his future was bound to be limitless.
But what about Wang Yingying?
Now it seemed she was simply a materialistic gold-digger who loved vanity.
Did she aspire to achieve class ascension by hooking up with a rich person?
Or would a few bags be enough to make her sell her soul?
It was truly better to break up with such a woman as early as possible!
Otherwise, the third oldest might be terribly exploited by her in the future.
"Third oldest, don't be sad!"
"We don't care for women like that!"
"We never told you, but we always thought you two weren't a good match. She wasn't good enough for you!"
"Pretty women are everywhere. After a breakup, you'll find you have a whole forest."
"Come on, we'll take you out tonight to have some fun. Forget about that kind of woman quickly!"
...Facing his brothers' comfort and good intentions, Xu Ning felt a warmth in his heart and was deeply moved.
"I'm really not sad."
"Maybe our feelings just faded over time."
"Like you said, good girls are everywhere, hehe!"
He spoke with a smile, telling them he was actually fine.
"Oh, and I don't have financial pressure anymore."
"I just found out that I have a great-uncle overseas."
"My great-uncle had no heirs, so he left all his inheritance to me after he passed away."
"So, I won't be short on money anymore."
This was the explanation Xu Ning had prepared. After all, it was best not to reveal the system.
With movies as a basis, such a seemingly absurd story was easier for people to accept.
Sure enough, the three brothers' eyes widened in unison, their faces full of disbelief.
"Great-uncle?"
"Inherit an estate?"
"You're not kidding, are you?"
Such a thing was still somewhat bizarre.
But once they accepted this premise, many things became clear.
At least Xu Ning no longer had to struggle with how to tell them that he would become a super-rich person in the future.
Anyway, no matter how much money he had in the future, he could say it was all from his great-uncle... Surprisingly, the three genuinely felt happy for Xu Ning. Although they weren't clear how much money Xu Ning specifically had, he certainly wouldn't have to worry about tuition and living expenses like before.
To celebrate, the four of them had a small barbecue for lunch and drank to their heart's content.
Of course, Xu Ning only drank a little, as he still had to work as a designated driver in the evening.
His brothers found this strange. Since he had inherited an estate, why was he still working as a designated driver?
Xu Ning's explanation was that he loved his job, and being a designated driver was quite interesting.
Hearing Xu Ning's explanation, the three brothers nodded simultaneously, thinking that perhaps Xu Ning needed to keep himself busy after the breakup to avoid dwelling on unnecessary thoughts.
The four of them continued to drink happily, but as it was the middle of the day, they stopped at a reasonable point.
They returned to their dorm room and, with a slight buzz, slept. When they woke up, the alcohol had already worn off.
After all, he hadn't drunk much, and he had good self-control.
It would be ridiculous if a designated driver was also driving under the influence.
Similar incidents had happened before and were exposed online.
The car owner had clearly been drinking and just wanted a designated driver to get home safely, but the designated driver had also been drinking.
When the Traffic Police stopped them for a sobriety test, they were both dumbfounded!
When Xu Ning arrived at the restaurant in the evening, the cashier gave him a look.
Xu Ning blinked, indicating he didn't understand.
At this point, Master Li stood up and spoke to Xu Ning with a somewhat displeased tone.
"Xiao Xu, I think we still need to follow some rules."
"The first customer you picked up yesterday was my old client. I always drive him home."
"In situations like that, you shouldn't snatch the order!"
"Next time this happens, if you still take the order, I'll need half of the designated driving fee!"
Watching the other person's self-righteous demeanor, Xu Ning couldn't help but frown.
Old client?
Snatch the order?
Half the designated driving fee?
What kind of rule was that!
He realized that Master Li was taking advantage of him, seeing him as young and inexperienced, and easy to bully!
