45: Chapter 45 That kid will definitely be punished severely tonight.

After the fire was extinguished, the spectacle came to an end.

Luo Wei drove Lin Wantang away from the old residential area.

As noon approached, Lin Wantang blushed and extended an invitation.

"Um, let me treat you to lunch, okay..." Her voice carried a hint of pleading.

Luo Wei didn't want her money, nor did he even want her as a person, which left her completely confused about what he was after.

In truth, it wasn't that Luo Wei didn't want her; he just didn't want to be in a relationship.

"Sure!" Luo Wei agreed cleanly and decisively to Lin Wantang's invitation.

"Pick a restaurant, and I'll drive us there."

"Mhm!" Lin Wantang quickly took out her phone and started searching.

Luo Wei seemed very wealthy, so she definitely couldn't take him somewhere low-class.

Besides, her money had been returned; she currently had 1.5 million in her pocket, so going somewhere a bit expensive was perfectly fine!

Soon, Lin Wantang selected an upscale restaurant located in the city center.

Following the navigation, the two soon arrived at their destination.

There weren't many guests in the restaurant.

After they sat down and ordered their food, Lin Wantang went to the restroom.

Luo Wei took out his phone and dialed the number of his old classmate and female buddy, Cheng Yunshu.

In today's intelligence, it was mentioned that someone would retaliate against Cheng Yunshu, so he had to warn her.

"Hello, what's up?" Cheng Yunshu's voice was a bit muffled, clearly because she was eating lunch. "You're calling me out of the blue; there isn't a problem with the house, is there?"

A few days ago, under Cheng Yunshu's recommendation, Luo Wei had managed to snag a house at a bargain.

Cheng Yunshu thought Luo Wei's sudden call might be related to the house.

"The house is fine." Luo Wei chuckled. "By the way, have you closed any deals today?"

Speaking of this, Cheng Yunshu immediately got excited. "I'm taking a client to see a house this afternoon; there's a very high chance this deal will go through!"

This deal would definitely succeed, Luo Wei laughed to himself; after all, he held heaven-defying system intelligence in his hands!

"Tell me when it's done, and I'll treat you to dinner then!"

"Mhm, I'll let you know the good news then!"

After making the arrangement, Luo Wei hung up the phone.

At that moment, Lin Wantang returned from the restroom.

She had quickly applied some light makeup, and because her troubles were completely resolved,

She now appeared radiant, bright, and moving.

Seeing Luo Wei staring at her, she blushed and playfully stuck out her tongue.

Luo Wei thought of a phrase: 'A woman dolls herself up for the one who appreciates her.'

He was just about to tease Lin Wantang a bit.

To his utter surprise, a familiar figure entered the restaurant.

It was his glamorous Female Superior, Shen Yanqiu. She spotted Luo Wei the moment she walked in.

In the morning, Luo Wei had said he had things to do today; it seemed the 'things' he mentioned involved a date with a girl.

Shen Yanqiu grumbled inwardly, though she naturally wasn't angry or anything.

After all, she and Luo Wei weren't in a romantic relationship.

Luo Wei certainly wasn't some Pretty Boy she was keeping.

Seeing Shen Yanqiu, Luo Wei naturally didn't feel any guilt like a thief caught in the act.

Since he had seen her, he smiled and waved at Shen Yanqiu.

Shen Yanqiu was accompanied by a woman. The moment he saw her, the phrase 'full of charm' appeared in Luo Wei's mind.

That woman was very beautiful, similar in age to Shen Yanqiu, equally mature and elegant, but with even more charm than Shen Yanqiu!

"What a coincidence!" Shen Yanqiu smiled and stepped forward, introducing him to the charming woman beside her.

"Wei Lan, this is the person I was just telling you about, Luo Wei."

"Mr. Luo, hello, I am Ye Weilan from Rouru Company!"

The charming Ye Weilan reached out with a bright smile.

Luo Wei stood up and shook her hand. "Hello."

According to the intelligence, Luo Wei knew this woman wanted to ask him for help.

However, Ye Weilan didn't mention it; she just gave a greeting and left with Shen Yanqiu.

Of course, as they left, Shen Yanqiu gave Luo Wei a meaningful look.

Luo Wei naturally understood what that glamorous Female Superior meant.

She definitely intended to punish him properly tonight.

This look did not escape Ye Weilan's eyes.

After sitting down, she immediately teased, "Your relationship with him isn't simple!"

They were all adults and good friends, so Shen Yanqiu not only didn't feel embarrassed but instead made a bold recommendation.

"That guy is very capable. Do you want to give him a try?"

"No, no, no!"

Ye Weilan's cheeks flushed as she quickly waved her hand.

"You know I have no interest in men."

"Not a single man is any good. Back then, I told you not to get married. See, I was right; your marriage ended in tragedy!"

While complaining, Ye Weilan waved over a waiter. She pointed toward Luo Wei's table from a distance and asked the waiter to give her the bill for that table.

At this moment, Lin Wantang was keeping her head down.

She only dared to breathe after she noticed those two glamorous and charming women had left.

"What are you doing?" Luo Wei couldn't help but laugh. "Why did you keep your head down just now?"

"I, I..." Lin Wantang regretted choosing this high-end restaurant.

Her heart-shaped face flushed red as she muttered gloomily, "Compared to those two friends of yours, I feel like an ugly duckling..."

So that was it; she felt inferior. Luo Wei smiled and comforted her, "Ugly ducklings can turn into swans!"

"Besides, I don't think you're an ugly duckling at all. You're younger and prettier than they are!"

"Really?" Being praised made Lin Wantang's heart instantly feel sunny and bright.

"I'm actually not that pretty..."

Luo Wei casually continued to comfort her, "Everyone has their own beautiful side. In short, each has their own flavor!"

"Each has their own flavor?"

Lin Wantang felt that phrase was a bit strange.

She pushed the thought to the back of her mind and then looked at Luo Wei with a triumphant expression.

"I heard your name just now. So your name is Luo Wei!"

"Yep!" Luo Wei nodded with a smile. "Remember it well; that's the name of your sweetheart!"

"You..." Lin Wantang's face turned red again. She couldn't understand what Luo Wei was trying to do at all.

She had accepted his confession earlier, but he said he didn't plan on dating.

If he didn't plan on dating, why did he keep teasing her?

Why?

Because it was fun, of course!

Lin Wantang's blushing face was incredibly cute!

Not far away, Shen Yanqiu happened to be able to see the situation at Luo Wei's table.

Seeing Lin Wantang blush one moment and then puff out her cheeks in annoyance the next,

Those two were clearly a young couple flirting!

It would be a lie to say she wasn't jealous!

Of course, she didn't intend to break them up.

Instead, she secretly made up her mind.

Tonight, she would absolutely punish that kid Luo Wei severely!

She would definitely make him raise his hands and beg for mercy...
