Chapter 423: The Manifestation of a Life Winner

Wu An asked Li Xin to give an introduction.

Li Xin's eyes lit up,? the chance to perform arrived.

The large villa was independently designed by him.

He came to introduce, naturally holding the reins.

? The design drafts have actually been reviewed with Wu An several times; apart from some details that still need discussion, the main structure is basically settled.

? Listening to Li Xin's explanation, Gu Anran looked at the renderings, nodding from time to time.

Her gaze grew brighter, thinking of the gym, the temperature‑controlled pool, and she liked the children's room the most.

Only after hearing Li Xin's introduction did she realize a single room could have so many variations.

After listening, Gu Anran raved, "Your design is excellent; I have no comments."

Wu An asked, "Do you like it?"

Gu Anran replied without hesitation, "I like it."

"As long as you're satisfied," Li Xin smiled, "Mainly thanks to Xiao Wu Zong's guidance, I could design it so smoothly."

Mai Hangyu heard that and shook his head helplessly.

Here we go again.

Li Xin is a competent Party B, truly licking Party A like a father.

His behavior toward him is still fairly normal; after all, they were originally friends, and even though they became Party A and Party B on the project, their private relationship remains good.

When facing Wu An, Li Xin this guy completely changes.

No.

He becomes a dog, a sycophant.

Last time Wu An went to the site, about a hundred or so meters away, Li Xin ran while shouting.

Those who knew thought he was calling Wu Zong, but he thought he was calling "dad".

Afterwards.

Li Xin also gave advice to Mai Hangyu.

Telling him to flatter Wu An more.

Wu An isn't old; even if their flattery is stiff, he still accepts it.

Mai Hangyu admitted that Li Xin was right.

But after long mental preparation, he found he still couldn't.

If Wu An were truly a fresh young novice, he might not even notice.

But after all, he's not a youngster.

Li Xin's flattery is so stiff; it works, but obviously he feels it's a bit awkward.

He should mainly encourage, reminding: "Next time aim for a more natural approach."

Li Xin grinned, "Alright then."

Mai Hangyu gave both a thumbs‑up, saying, "You two are both qualified Party A and Party B."

Lao Mai tapped him, "Learn from it."

Mai Hangyu sighed, "Can't learn it."

"That's because you haven't clearly recognized the gap between you and A An," Lao Mai smiled and said, "It's fine; the little social savvy you lack, Grandpa will make up for you."

Li Xin whispered, "Hangyu, don't resist; you need to learn to accept it."

Actually, at first.

He followed Fan Laoshi here and didn't take Wu An seriously.

Result.

Li Xin never imagined that a village youngster, one or two years younger than him, could develop so many businesses.

At the beginning.

"How old is he, only handling multi‑million projects..."

Then.

"What... you want to build a villa covering over a thousand square meters?"

Just recently.

"Xiao Wu Zong, you say you bought a building in town, with the first and second floors totaling about six hundred square meters, and you want me to design a supermarket plan..."

When they first met, he thought Wu An was being reckless, but now Li Xin feels he has met the most important benefactor of his life.

He is in contact with many senior brothers.

The senior brothers graduated many years ago, still small Karabi, earning less than a migrant worker.

A day of breakthrough seems far away.

But he.

He hasn't even graduated yet, yet he's already in charge of a major project, holding a villa costing over a million, and a future large supermarket design plan.

In the past two days.

Several senior brothers with decent connections have contacted him, asking if he needs help here.

How could he reply?

If any senior sister asked him, he would agree.

Seeing Gu Anran beside Wu An today, Li Xin suddenly felt the phrase "Life Winner" had materialized.

"Damn, I'm impressed."

Li Xin took a sip of wine, sighed inwardly, lowered his head; he didn't even have the courage to glance at Gu Anran again.

It's not that I don't want to.

but I don't dare.

Just now, he learned that the supermarket being prepared for design was Gu Anran's property.

Wu An didn't just arrange it casually.

This kind hasn't really developed yet, and there aren't any proper supermarkets.

Wu An knows that in the future, several big supermarkets will open in the town.

This shows there's potential.

Wu An himself isn't very clear on the specifics; he gives direction and provides the location, leaving the rest to Gu Anran.

He believes Gu Anran can do it well.

If it doesn't turn out well, it's fine.

As long as you have money in hand, there's plenty of capital for trial and error.

Mai Hangyu watched his grandfather and Wu An drink, wanting to explain but not knowing where to start.

He had already realized this.

He simply doesn't want to get involved in these social niceties; he treats Wu An as a friend, not as a father.

If they were going fishing in the afternoon, everyone was more restrained, so they drank a few bottles of beer at noon.

After the meal.

Just as they were about to head out to fish, Yu Kai Lang's phone called, telling him to go to the police station.

Lao Mai knew going to the police station was official business, so he didn't say much; Wu An filled several rods with Luck Value, saying: 'Lao Mai, take them to fish.'

"Guaranteed big catch."

"Hangyu, if you have nothing this afternoon, come help out, don't tire your father."

Not only letting Mai Hangyu come along to help, although the inland river isn't as windy and wavy as the sea, but if one isn't careful, accidents can still happen.

Mai Hangyu nodded, didn't think much of it, just thought it was going to play.

With no one accompanying him, Gu Anran couldn't practice driving; taking advantage of the lack of rain, he called a car to go home first.

Wu An arrived at the police station.

Yu Kai Lang saw the stubble on his chin, realizing he hadn't rested properly for a few days.

They haven't been idle lately; Wu An put forward a compensation demand, and they need to verify it.

It's not that they're worried Wu An will make exorbitant demands; their police station needs to endorse this matter, so they need some basis.

150,000!

Ma Weiqun, upon hearing this compensation amount, naturally disagreed, saying he stole only twice, totaling no more than 100,000!

Now asking him to pay 150,000? That's asking for an exorbitant amount.

The police side asked him to produce receipts and compensate according to them, but Ma Weiqun couldn't produce any.

Originally it was selling stolen goods, directly traded at sea, leaving no evidence at all.

Even if there were, he wouldn't dare produce them, as it would implicate the big boss; once he's out, trouble will surely come.

Ma Weiqun couldn't produce them, but Wu An could.

Each sales slip records everything clearly and plainly.

After police investigation, all the slips provided by Yu Kai Lang were accepted; the 150,000 compensation is justified and evidence-based.

Even if Ma Weiqun refuses to compensate, after a court judgment it can be enforced.

After police communication, Ma Weiqun admitted.

Wu An signed the letter of understanding.

Yu Kai Lang asked: 'Should we let Ma Weiqun and them apologize to you in person?'

Wu An shook his head: 'No need.'

An apology would surely be insincere; there's no need to go through the motions with Ma Weiqun.

Yu Kai Lang said: 'The compensation will be paid in three working days; Ma Weiqun and the others will still be detained for a period before release.'

While speaking.

Yu Kai Lang accompanied him out the door, just then encountering Lin Hu and Chen Gui, who had just been released.
