Chapter 342: I'll Have to Wrong You by Staying Here

Li Laoyezi nodded upon hearing this, and seeing that the two of them were in agreement, he had no choice but to say nothing more.

The group discussed the details of the wedding a bit more, and only then did Li Xiao leave with Cai Xiaotang.

Cai Xiaotang had been holding back a belly full of anger for a long time; as soon as she got into the car, she immediately asked, "I was led into a trap by you that day! Why must the two of us get married? Wouldn't it work to just say I'm your girlfriend?"

Li Xiao was taken aback by this, then smiled first, and only then asked unhurriedly, "Do you want to go out and ask around how many girlfriends I have?"

Cai Xiaotang was stunned upon hearing this, and once she reacted, her anger flared up even more.

"Scoundrel! Scumbag! Playboy!"

These three terms popped into her mind instantly, and without hesitation, she applied them all to the person in front of her.

Li Xiao was not angry, however; he just asked back, unable to laugh or cry, "Isn't it a bit too early to be pinning labels on me so anxiously? In places like bars, if I say a few extra words to any woman, the other party will think I'm interested in her, so naturally, it's easy for some rumors to spread..."

He had barely offered an explanation, and as he spoke, he started the car.

But it was not in the direction of sending Cai Xiaotang home.

"Where are you taking me?"

Seeing that the route didn't seem right, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly asked in a nervous tone.

Li Xiao caught a glimpse of her panicked expression in his peripheral vision and sighed helplessly: "Why are you always so nervous? Do you think I'd sell you off?"

"Who knows! Don't you gangsters do everything!"

Cai Xiaotang retorted quickly, and felt a bit of regret as soon as she finished speaking.

Li Xiao raised an eyebrow with a smile and deliberately lowered his voice to say, "Since you know that, why aren't you being more polite when you talk to me?"

"Hmph!" Cai Xiaotang knew he wasn't angry, so she let out a cold snort. Just like when she arrived, she deliberately looked out the window, completely losing the mood to talk.

Not long after, a villa with a modern style, completely different from the Li Family Old Residence, appeared before their eyes.

"Where is this? Your house?"

Cai Xiaotang glanced at it and asked casually.

Li Xiao nodded, and while getting out of the car, he said, "This is my house. From today on, you will live here."

Cai Xiaotang: "...?"

She looked at the villa in front of her, unable to react for a moment.

Seeing that Li Xiao had already walked toward the entrance, she hurriedly ran over to stop him and asked unhappily, "Why do I have to suddenly move into your house to live? Do you not even need to tell me when you make a decision like this?"

"Didn't I say so on the road just now?" Li Xiao asked back, pretending not to know.

"What do you think!"

Cai Xiaotang yelled at him crossly.

Yet she saw the person in front of her curl his lips indifferently and say unhurriedly, "Then it's not too late to tell you now. My men are all around here lately, so it will be more convenient for you to live here."

"I..." Cai Xiaotang was momentarily speechless, but having been dragged here inexplicably, she still felt quite unhappy in her heart.

She continued crossly, "Then at the very least, you should let me pack my things! To bring me here directly without saying anything—what is the difference between this and kidnapping? There's no respect for people at all!"

"Is that so?" Li Xiao stopped abruptly, and then his lips suddenly curled up: "If I really didn't respect you, I should use gangster methods and just put a sack over you and tie you up, instead of driving you here. If you have any questions about my methods, you can go home now. An hour later, I can let you experience being invited by the method I just mentioned."

"I..." Cai Xiaotang was completely choked up by his words again, and her eyes were instantly filled with displeasure.

She was clearly very good at roasting people usually, so why was she the one at a disadvantage whenever she encountered this guy Li Xiao!

Cai Xiaotang was extremely depressed. She stood on the spot for a moment; she wanted to go back, but was afraid of being tied up again, and if she went in like this, it seemed like she had been scared, making her look like a loser with no face...

Li Xiao saw through her little thoughts at once, so he took the initiative to say, "Do you want to go in and take a look before making a decision? I've already had your room prepared. If there's anything you're dissatisfied with, there's still time to change it now."

Given a way out, Cai Xiaotang snorted coldly and walked into the villa's gate with a deliberately cold expression.

Her room was arranged on the second floor.

All the furniture and decorations had been designed by professionals.

There was also a large balcony with an open view where one could see the garden in the back; it could be said to be very comfortable.

Cai Xiaotang walked around the room and really couldn't find any faults.

Then she saw Li Xiao unhurriedly pull open the wardrobe.

Cai Xiaotang's eyes widened instantly.

It turned out that it wasn't just a simple wardrobe inside, but an entire large walk-in closet.

All the clothes inside were the latest styles, and even the intimate apparel used for daily changes were placed neatly in glass cabinets.

"You can wear any of the clothes inside as you like. If you need anything, just tell the housekeeper here. There is an auntie here; when you see her, just call her Auntie Li," Li Xiao introduced unhurriedly.

Cai Xiaotang suddenly felt a bit guilty.

She was only faking a marriage with him...

And regarding the matter that day, although she kept blaming him, if one had to say, she also had some responsibility...

Now that he had prepared so much...

Cai Xiaotang's gaze flickered for a moment, and she suddenly said, "How about I pay you rent?"

"Rent?"

Li Xiao was slightly taken aback, as if he hadn't expected that after looking around the room for so long, she would blurt out such a sentence.

Then he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He walked out of the walk-in closet and pointed casually at the large bed in the bedroom.

"That bed, 100,000; the four-piece bedding set, 130,000; the vanity, 170,000; plus the full set of custom cabinets and other decorations in the room, it all adds up to about 500,000 to 600,000. And this entire walk-in closet... I probably don't need to tell you the price. The cheapest thing in this room... should be that rug by your bed. I forgot which designer brand it is, 50,000. For a room like this, how much rent do you think is appropriate to pay me? Why don't you give me a quote and let me hear it?"

Li Xiao looked at Cai Xiaotang with a smile, waiting for her answer.

Cai Xiaotang: "..."

Rich people are truly annoying!

She reasonably suspected that this annoying guy Li Xiao was showing off his wealth!

Cai Xiaotang took a deep breath and was just about to speak when she heard the other party interrupt: "If you want to live in another room, that doesn't fit your status as the future Mrs. Li. If you want to replace the things in the room with cheaper ones... sorry, my taste doesn't allow for furniture market items to appear in my home, so, I can only wrong you... and have you stay here for the time being."
