52: Chapter 52 Where are you looking? I'll poke your eyes out!

As night fell.

Luo Wei and Cheng Yunshu arrived at the Riverside Food Stalls.

They used to frequent this place back in university.

The food stalls were not only affordable but also served large portions that were filling and tasted great.

Cheng Yunshu knew what Luo Wei liked to eat. Without needing his instructions, as the host, she quickly placed the order and arranged all sorts of food.

"Here!" Returning after ordering, Cheng Yunshu handed Luo Wei a can of chilled cola while she held a bottle of soy milk.

He wondered if her excellent development was due to her love for soy milk.

Seeing that Luo Wei's gaze was off and he was staring at her.

Cheng Yunshu's face flushed, and she unhesitatingly pinched Luo Wei's arm!

"Where are you looking? Watch out or I'll poke your dog eyes out!"

"Take it easy!" Luo Wei grimaced in pain.

Although he had taken the body strengthening fluid and had a strong physique, it didn't mean he was immune to pain.

"Hmph, that's what you get for staring!" After giving Luo Wei a hard pinch, Cheng Yunshu sat down beside him with a red face.

Just as Luo Wei was about to tease her, his phone on the table rang.

An unknown number appeared on the screen, and he answered it.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Luo Wei, it's me, Brother Hao."

"Oh?" Luo Wei wasn't surprised by Brother Hao's sudden call.

Cheng Yunshu faintly heard Brother Hao's name and couldn't help leaning in, wanting to hear what he wanted with Luo Wei.

This girl practically pressed herself against him; Luo Wei caught the faint scent of her perfume.

Looking at Cheng Yunshu's fair and delicate cheek leaning in, he couldn't resist giving it a kiss.

Cheng Yunshu was truly stunned. She hadn't expected Luo Wei to be so bold and shameless!

Her face turned red, and she gave Luo Wei another hard pinch.

Then, unable to contain her curiosity, she leaned in to eavesdrop again.

This time, she covered her cheek with her hand to prevent another sneak attack.

"Brother Hao, what do you want?" Luo Wei opened the chilled cola with one hand and asked lazily while drinking.

"Luo Wei, about that... could you meet with our President Li..." Brother Hao's voice sounded like he was on the verge of tears.

He had no idea what was going on.

What on earth had Luo Wei done to Li Taian?

This call was made at the request of Li Taian's secretary.

Supposedly, Bao Yonghua, the manager of the Procurement Department, had been beaten up and was hospitalized with serious injuries.

Brother Hao wasn't a fool; he vaguely guessed that this must be related to Luo Wei!

Of course, it wasn't Luo Wei who had attacked Bao Yonghua.

Rather, Li Taian had taken his anger out on Bao Yonghua because of Luo Wei!

At this moment, Brother Hao was extremely worried that he would follow in Bao Yonghua's footsteps!

So, he was now crying and pleading with Luo Wei.

Unfortunately, Luo Wei had no sympathy for him.

"Sigh, I've already promised your President Li that I'd help him solve his Metaphysics problem."

"But I'm currently out of town and won't be back in Honghai City for a few days!"

"If there's nothing else, that's it. I'm busy!"

Luo Wei hung up the phone without another word.

Cheng Yunshu immediately asked, "What happened?"

"Why did that guy Brother Hao sound like he was about to cry?"

"Who knows?" Luo Wei shrugged. "That guy is no good anyway!"

"When I went to his company to collect payment before, he didn't tell me how overbearing they were. He intentionally wanted to see me make a fool of myself!"

"When I went to their Procurement Department, that pot-bellied manager immediately arranged for ten hulking security guards to kick me out!"

"Fortunately, I'm strong. I took down all ten of them by myself and scared the life out of their manager, so I successfully recovered the one million in payment!"

"Pfft..." Luo Wei's story made Cheng Yunshu burst out laughing. "You, taking on ten people by yourself? Don't I know you well enough?"

Cheng Yunshu didn't believe him. Luo Wei just smiled and didn't argue.

Soon, the owners of the various stalls brought the food over.

Beef brisket pot, grilled oysters, and stinky tofu... neither of them held back and began to feast.

As they ate, Luo Wei keenly sensed a gaze filled with malice!

Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a short middle-aged man.

People were coming and going on the riverside sidewalk, many of them taking a stroll after dinner.

Wang Dechang was one of them. Today, he had sold a house he had lived in for many years.

This should have been a good thing, but after finishing the paperwork, he chatted with others and realized he had sold it at a loss.

In the same neighborhood and for the same layout, someone else had sold their place for tens of thousands more than he did just a while ago!

Upon learning this, Wang Dechang felt terrible. Tens of thousands of yuan was no small sum!

He thought it over and felt that the real estate agent had misled him!

That agent kept saying that house prices were dropping and so on.

If he didn't sell now, he would lose even more later!

Currently, house prices nationwide were indeed slowly declining!

But for some houses in prime locations, prices hadn't dropped; they had actually risen!

His house was in an excellent location. Although it was old, small, and dilapidated, the surrounding facilities were very complete!

In short, it was that agent who misled him, which was why he had hurriedly signed the papers to sell the house!

At this moment, Wang Dechang had a dark expression and was staring intently at Cheng Yunshu, who was eating at the food stall!

That agent was smiling so happily; she must have pocketed a lot of his money when she sold his house!

The more Wang Dechang thought about it, the angrier he got. He wanted revenge; he wanted to make that agent pay a price!

Wang Dechang didn't know that Luo Wei had already noticed him.

However, Luo Wei was in no hurry to act.

After all, the man hadn't done anything yet, so he naturally had no reason to intervene!

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, it was already past eight in the evening.

Cheng Yunshu held her stomach and let out a burp, feeling very content.

Seeing Luo Wei get up to pay the bill, her smile grew even brighter.

She knew Luo Wei wouldn't let her pay.

"Let's go!" After paying, Luo Wei beckoned to her. "Do you want to go for a walk or sit somewhere else?"

"Another day!" Cheng Yunshu had only one thought now. "I'm exhausted after a day of work. I just want to go back to my rental and sleep!"

"Alright, then I'll drive you back." Having a free ride, Cheng Yunshu naturally didn't refuse.

Driving away from Riverside Street, Luo Wei clearly felt they were being followed.

He intentionally slowed down so the other party wouldn't lose them.

Luo Wei naturally knew Cheng Yunshu's address.

It didn't take long before he parked the car downstairs at an apartment building.

"Bye-bye..." After getting out of the car, Cheng Yunshu waved to Luo Wei.

"Bye-bye. I'll ask you out again when I'm free!"

"Mm..." Cheng Yunshu agreed.

However, she felt a strange sense of disappointment in her heart.

She thought Luo Wei would shamelessly follow her upstairs.

If Luo Wei had done that, would she have agreed or refused?

While pondering this, Cheng Yunshu entered the apartment building and stood at the elevator entrance waiting.

Just then, someone else entered the building. Cheng Yunshu assumed they also lived there.

But to her shock, the person had their head wrapped in a jacket, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, staring at her with pure malice...
