My System Forces Me to Live off Women
Chapter 716 - 403: Two Wedding Homes (2)Wu Wenyue was the most attentive of the three. On the day the construction began, she went to supervise three times and kept discussing various details with the designer.
The design fees, renovation costs, including the garden and courtyard renovations, added up to a total renovation budget of over seven million, with the construction period being six months, divided into four phases.
The first phase required forty percent to be paid. Neither of the two girls asked Li Peifeng to pay; Wu Wenyue proactively insisted on paying it herself and directly transferred the money before informing the others.
Xu Manning had a little complaint, and while the three of them were having breakfast, she grumbled, "You really do seem like you’re rich, spending money so lavishly. I wanted to negotiate with them for a discount, so why were you in such a hurry to pay first?"
Wu Wenyue knew that Manning’s intent on negotiating was not real; she was just being considerate and helping her save money. After all, even though she had a billion in savings, she still couldn’t compare to Xu Manning in this regard.
On the other hand, Miss Xu didn’t really want Wu Wenyue to pay for the renovations; she wanted to pay herself. There was a bit of a twisted and dark little thought behind this.
As the saying goes: Economic base determines the superstructure.
This saying is very applicable in any field or relationship.
In most modern families, the one with the higher salary, the one who pays for the house, the one who pays for the car, the one who can support the family expenses, occupies the dominant position in the family!
It’s a very realistic issue.
In the past, when the three were together, Xu Manning considered that they were living in her house, eating the food she bought, so she felt more confident and could openly demand more affection, acting spoiled naturally.
But now that Wu Wenyue got the billion from Li Peifeng and achieved financial freedom, she was clearly more confident and even dared to spend over seven million on renovating their new house... Hmph!
I don’t allow it; Wu Wenyue, you little poor woman, should always remain poor!
And Li Peifeng, why do you make so much money? You should only earn a few tens of thousands of royalties per month, then eat, use, wear, and live in my house like Yueyue... Both of you have to listen to me, suffer my tantrums, and love only me!!
So Xu Manning was nervous about Wu Wenyue paying for the renovations and was a bit worried that their tolerance for her might drastically decrease in the future...
Wu Wenyue also roughly understood what was on her mind. However, she was determined to spend the money, and the reason was simple. Wu Wenyue jokingly articulated it.
"The villa and this building are under your name, having nothing to do with the two of us. It’s fine now, but if in the future, after the three of us get married and live there, what if you get angry during an argument and say, ’This is my house, you get out’? I could only leave with my tail between my legs. But if I spend this money, at least I’ll have the confidence to smash everything in the house before leaving like that."
This reasoning was so sufficient that Miss Xu couldn’t argue at all. She just tugged at Li Peifeng, displeased, "Yueyue is bringing up old scores again, hubby, you handle him!"
"Handle what? You offer the house, and she offers the renovations, isn’t that great?"
Li Peifeng laughed, "But it just has nothing to do with me; if you really ask me to leave the house, then I’d have to leave with my tail between my legs."
Xu Manning was even more unhappy after hearing that, "Where would you roll to? To Zhao Qingge’s house, right?!"
Correct, direct, honest, elegant, objective!
After breakfast, the two girls went to work, and Li Peifeng indeed drove to the Zhao family house.
"Ding dong~ Darling? Wifey? It’s me, let me in."
Li Peifeng pressed the doorbell a dozen times, yet the door didn’t open. It was the weekend, and Zhao Qingge didn’t have to work. He could feel the other person was in the study room at home and had heard the doorbell, only refusing to open the door because she was upset.
The instigator was Wu Wenyue, who out of boredom or vanity, took some photos and a video of the villa’s renovation while supervising and posted them in their four-girl WeChat group. Xu Manning then fueled the flames by saying some words that invited trouble, such as, ’Our marital house has started the renovations; if you two are free, you can come by and give some suggestions on the renovation.’
This led to Zhao Qingge finding out about their new house renovations. At that time, she didn’t show any reaction, pretending not to see it, but she sent a WeChat message to Li Peifeng that night: "Your three-person marital house is quite large!!"
Zhao Duoduo was full of anger. Li Peifeng wanted to immediately visit her house to comfort her, but he was detained by Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning, unable to leave, so he came early the next morning.
"You’re not opening the door, right? Then I’ll go and jump in through the window."
After saying that, Li Peifeng looked at the small window in the corridor, estimating the distance between the window and Zhao Qingge’s living room window. He thought he could leap over, feeling a bit excited, wanting to try.
Only eleven floors, shouldn’t be an issue for himself even if he misses, and even if he fails to grab it, his reaction speed should allow him to catch the edge of the window below, climbing back up from there.
Let’s do this!
With his adept skills and daring courage, the moment the thought arose, Li Peifeng was ready to go downstairs. However, at that moment, Zhao Qingge finally emerged from the study and walked to the security door, asking flatly across the door, "What have you come for?"
Li Peifeng paused, pondering, "I came... to take you house-hunting, I’ve thought about it recently and feel it’s more appropriate to buy a new house with you, otherwise it won’t feel right, and Uncle and Aunt might have concerns."
