Chapter 375: Become a landlady?

They ate and drank until midnight. When the gathering dispersed, Mei Xiaoxiao was already so asleep that even if you lifted her, she wouldn't wake. Worth mentioning: he was eating and eating, his head nodding, then with a 'pa-da' he fell asleep.

I don't know if he secretly drank alcohol.

Wu An hadn't drunk much yesterday; a carp did a push‑up. After he was completely sober, he even practiced squats for a while. Needless to say, a young body is just one word.

Double great!

Can't say he's a seven‑times‑a‑night stud, but sleeping through the night should be no problem.

During this time, busy at sea, besides earning money, he also trained his body well, ate well and kept training; the 'cost' is that he can already feel his six‑pack abs.

Gu Anran likes to touch.

Going out.

He simply ate some breakfast, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and was about to leave.

Wu Yingwei hadn't gone to work yet; lately this old fellow hasn't been eager to work, and Wu An's mind was full of Gu Anran, so he didn't notice.

Wu Yingwei asked, "What's the rush for?"

"I just went to the dock and walked around."

"The waves are over a meter high."

Wu An had already walked out of the shade pavilion, and without turning back said, "I'm going out with your daughter‑in‑law to go shopping."

Hearing that, Wu Yingwei put down his bowl and chopsticks, quickly stood up, and said, "Then wait a moment."

Wu An turned back: "What's up?"

Wu Yingwei took out some money: "Don't be reluctant to spend money."

Wu An laughed: "Okay, then I won't stand on ceremony."

He took the money.

Not much.

Probably around a thousand.

He didn't refuse, saying he had money; this is Father's intention, so just accept it, and later buy something in the county.

He pushed the pedals out from the carport; Mei Yueqin saw his hurried look and said, "Ride slowly."

Wu An nodded and replied.

Get in the car.

Floor the accelerator.

With a 'boom', he drove out.

Wu Yingwei shook his head: "This kid really is just like his older brother."

He was still speaking.

Wu Ping returned.

Wu Yingwei asked, "You weren't going to school, so why did you come back?"

Wu Ping scratched his head, lowered his voice, and said, "Something came up."

Mei Yueqin whispered, "I and A Ping plan to go to the county hospital to have a look."

Wu Yingwei realized, nodded, and didn't say much more.

After being married for so many years, it's about time to have a child; there are plenty of gossips in the village, and before, for various reasons, they kept postponing getting checked.

Now the family's life is better, and finances are more comfortable.

This matter naturally should be put on the agenda.

Mei Yueqin and Wu Ping tidied up a bit and also went out.

Wu Yingwei had eaten well, tidied up, and also went out; reaching the doorway, Lao Meng was busy making things, skilled as ever, not hoping to earn money, just passing the time.

Lao Meng took the cigarette, clipped it behind his ear, and said, "I saw that even early this morning, everyone was already out."

Wu Yingwei laughed, "Everyone's busy."

"Being busy is good."

Wu Yingwei nodded.

Lao Meng waited for him to finish his cigarette, then said, "Aren't you going to the Village Committee?"

Wu Yingwei brushed off the ash on his clothes: "Nothing much."

"Then you can't just do nothing; find something to do."

"Am I that kind of person?"

"Yes, you are."

"Get lost."

Wu Yingwei cursed, stood up with his hands behind his back, and walked away.

Lao Meng lifted his head and glanced at the old partner; this old fellow has lacked energy lately, yet he's still competing for village chief—could it be that Chen Gui has used some trick?

……

Gu Anran got up early, tidied herself up and did her nails; the old lady watched, hurriedly took over the breakfast preparation, and after she had eaten, let Gu Anran rest while blowing the fan.

Hearing the horn, Gu Anran grabbed her bag, greeted the old lady, and hurried out.

The old lady didn't leave the house.

Besides the house, Wu An also had to get out of the car to greet her, which was already troublesome enough.

People get old.

It's already enough to cause trouble for the child.

If possible, avoid getting close; just stay out of the way as much as you can.

The old lady still approves of Gu Anran and Wu An going out on a date; they should be engaged in a couple of days, and she doesn't care if outsiders gossip.

……

Wu An saw Gu Anran; although he already knew her inside out, but upon seeing her, he was still stunned; today Gu Anran also wore light makeup.

Her attire was also exquisite, and she wore a pair of not-too-high high heels.

Fortunately he is 1.8 meters tall; otherwise, Gu Anran in high heels standing beside him would still make him feel pressured.

"Did you bring your ID?"

"I didn't bring it; what do you need an ID for when just going out shopping?"

"Then go get it; it'll be useful."

"No."

"Be obedient..."

"Hmph, I'll bring it, I'll bring it." Gu Anran shouted angrily and shyly; since the two of them had pierced the window paper, she of course knew why they needed to bring an ID; last night she had already put it in her bag ahead of time.

"Hehe, get in the car."

Gu Anran adjusted her skirt and sat sideways in.

"Hold me, but don't tickle my ticklish spots."

Wu An said.

Gu Anran then embraced him.

Wu An started the car; Gu Anran felt a bit nervous and held him tighter.

It's time to buy a car.

Anyway, we're not short on money, but we're still missing a driver's license.

Another day I'll ask Qiang Ge and Qin Zong; they have wide connections, maybe they have a quick way to get the license.

They arrived in town.

Just then a bus had just left; the next bus would be more than half an hour later. The two were about to find a place to wait when they heard a horn; looking back, they saw an Audi.

Wu An's eyes narrowed slightly; it was Shen Nan.

Shen Nan rolled down the car window and greeted: "What a coincidence!"

Wu An nodded.

Shen Nan glanced at Gu Anran, his eyes lighting up, and asked: "What a beautiful beauty, is she your girlfriend?"

"You're going to the county, right?"

"I happen to have something to do too; get in, I'll give you a ride on my way."

Wu An asked: "Your car?"

Shen Nan curled the corner of his mouth proudly: "I just picked it up yesterday; how is it?"

Wu An nodded.

Shen Nan laughed: "Don't be polite; we're from the same village, what's the big deal about giving a ride? I've already forgotten that little disagreement yesterday; you probably don't mind either."

Wu An thought it over; waiting in this sweltering heat really wasn't a good idea; Boss Fang had already gone to the county earlier yesterday, and had just called to say he had already gone to the Real Estate Bureau.

"Alright, then thanks."

The two got into the car.

Along the way, Shen Nan tried to make conversation, Wu An gave half-hearted replies, Gu Anran remained silent, and Shen Nan deliberately sought topics, to which she only gave perfunctory responses.

They got out of the car.

Gu Anran looked displeased: "How does your village have such an annoying person? He kept showing off all the way, deliberately trying to disgust you."

Wu An nodded: "I have a bit of a conflict with him."

Gu Anran took his hand: "Let's have less contact from now on."

"Where are we going now?"

"This place is a bit remote."

Wu An smiled, walked toward the not-far Real Estate Bureau, and said: "Follow me."

They arrived at the Real Estate Bureau.

Gu Anran was a bit dazed.

"What are we doing here?"

Boss Fang was already waiting; upon entering the lobby, Boss Fang was sitting in a chair, saw the two, stood up and waved to greet.

Gu Anran saw Boss Fang, and her eyes widened involuntarily.

Then she turned her head to look at Wu An.

She slightly opened her mouth, wanting to ask what was going on.

Wu An greeted Boss Fang.

Boss Fang saw Gu Anran, feeling a bit embarrassed and also a bit stunned.

"This... what's going on?"

Gu Anran's big eyes were full of confusion: how could Boss Fang, who released pigeons yesterday, be meeting Wu An at the Real Estate Bureau today?

"Could it be..."

"Could the person who bought Boss Fang's storefront be Wu An?"

"No way?"

Thinking this, Gu Anran's heart pounded uncontrollably!
