Rebirth: I have Monopoly System

Li Yao waved and said, "Feifei! Be safe! Don’t forget you have class this afternoon!"

"Hahahaha~"

...

Seeing the three of them run off laughing, Qi Fei blushed and said, "Xiaoyunzi, don’t listen to their nonsense. What do you want to eat for lunch today?"

Wu Yun grinned, wrapping his arm around Qi Fei’s waist. "Senior! We know each other inside and out! What’s there to be shy about?"

"Let’s just grab a bite somewhere outside your school. I have to go to the office later, but I’ll come pick you up after your class this afternoon!"

Qi Fei nodded, then took Wu Yun’s hand. "Come with me. I’ve gotten into this newly opened Cantonese restaurant recently. Let me take you to try it, it’s pretty good!"

Seeing the two of them leave the school, Wei Wu and Li Fengying immediately got out of the minivan and followed behind them.

Sitting in the Cantonese restaurant, Qi Fei first ordered for herself and Wu Yun, then ordered a meal for Wei Wu and Li Fengying. Only then did she prop her chin on her hands and stare intently at Wu Yun, who was on the phone.

Wu Yun didn’t look at Qi Fei until he hung up the phone. "What are you staring at me for! Have you never seen a man this handsome before?"

Qi Fei rolled her eyes and mimed gagging before saying, "The way you talk, you’re as confident as that woman in the video!"

Wu Yun scoffed. "Tch~ That’s her being clueless. I’m just stating facts! Are you saying I’m not handsome?"

As he spoke, Wu Yun even made a V-shape with his hand under his chin.

"Xiaoyunzi, did I just hear you say that Gao Qiang and Zhang Xiaojing are dating!?" Qi Fei suddenly remembered that when Wu Yun was talking about that news story, he had mentioned coming back from a meal with Gao Qiang and the others.

Seeing Qi Fei’s surprised expression, Wu Yun asked, "What? You know Zhang Xiaojing?"

Qi Fei nodded and recalled, "I do. We’ve met a few times. You could say my dad and her dad work together."

"She should be my age, we’re both sophomores this year! I even have her on WeChat! Here, see if this is the Zhang Xiaojing you’re talking about." As she spoke, Qi Fei opened Zhang Xiaojing’s Moments. The most recent post was, surprisingly, a photo of two hands clasped together. Wu Yun could tell at a glance that the larger hand was Gao Qiang’s.

"Yep! That’s her!"

"Sigh... Your childhood friend probably won’t be with her for long," Qi Fei lamented.

"Why? Is there a problem with Zhang Xiaojing?" Wu Yun was amazed by Qi Fei’s insight. ’She’s right! In my past life, Gao Qiang and Zhang Xiaojing really did break up after only a little over a month.’

Qi Fei took a sip of tea and frowned. "It’s not that there’s a problem with Zhang Xiaojing, it’s her family."

"If Gao Qiang isn’t from a family of similar standing, they’re bound to be broken up by her family sooner or later." Qi Fei pursed her lips. "Her family has some money, but they act like they’re old-money billionaires. You can basically find every problem rich people have in her grandparents and parents!"

Qi Fei then began to tell Wu Yun everything she knew about Zhang Xiaojing’s family.

"Zhang Xiaojing’s dad owns a pretty big construction company. It’s been doing really well in recent years, winning bids on at least one major housing project or public or industrial building almost every year." After all, Qi Fei had grown up around the business, so she knew a thing or two about the construction industry.

"Since my dad’s in real estate development, Zhang Xiaojing’s dad often invites him out for tea and a chat, or even just to hang out, to maintain their connection."

"So, because of all those social obligations, I even attended her grandmother’s 70th birthday party."

Just then, the dishes they ordered began to arrive. Wu Yun took a bite of food and said, "Senior, don’t tell me something happened at that 70th birthday party?"

"Nothing major, really! It’s just that they were so materialistic. I can still clearly remember the way Zhang Xiaojing’s grandparents looked at people when they talked."

As she spoke, Qi Fei mimicked the expression on Zhang Xiaojing’s grandmother’s face, saying in a haughty tone, "So you’re the Xiaoliu from my son’s company! I’ve heard Zhang Wei talk about you! Not bad, not bad! Keep up the good work! The company is counting on young people like you to contribute!"

"Xiaoyunzi, you should have seen the way Zhang Xiaojing’s grandmother looked down her nose at people. But since we were right behind them to give our gift, the moment my dad stepped forward, her whole demeanor changed. She became all friendly and approachable, even affectionately taking my hand and calling me pretty!"

Qi Fei rolled her eyes, clearly exasperated by Zhang Xiaojing’s grandmother’s behavior.

After eating a piece of a vegetable, Qi Fei continued to complain, "I also heard from my dad that her family is extremely superstitious. I mean, I can understand holding a ceremony for a construction groundbreaking, but having to consult an almanac before you even leave the house? Isn’t that a bit much!?"

"My dad said that years ago, Zhang Xiaojing’s dad had a girlfriend, but his parents forced them to break up just because their zodiac signs and ’Eight Characters’ were incompatible. They didn’t even meet her."

"Later, he was introduced to Zhang Xiaojing’s mother through a matchmaker. Another reason it worked out was because her family was also very wealthy! No less than the Zhang Family was at the time."

Wu Yun listened to Qi Fei’s rant as he ate, finding her expression rather adorable. Even her angry gestures were captivating.

"If I had been a boy when we met, her family probably would have wanted to arrange a marriage with mine!"

"So, you should give Gao Qiang a heads-up soon, tell him not to get in too deep! Here, have a braised lion’s head meatball." Qi Fei used her chopsticks to pick up a meatball for Wu Yun, then took one for herself.

Wu Yun nodded in understanding but said, "They’ve only just started. It’s not my place to be the bad guy. But maybe it’d be good for Gao Qiang to suffer a little. It might teach him a lesson, since he goes through life so carefree."

’But I’m confident that with Gao Qiang’s qualities, even if things don’t work out with Zhang Xiaojing, he’ll be able to find a great girlfriend!’ Wu Yun added inwardly, ’As long as he doesn’t just drift along on construction sites like in my past life!’

"Whatever. He’s your childhood friend, not mine."

"Senior! Seeing you complain so much about them, I haven’t heard you say whether your parents would look down on me for having no money or status!" Wu Yun said, teasing her.

Qi Fei shot Wu Yun a look and retorted with a laugh, "Just you wait, keep making fun of me! See if I don’t bite you to death tonight!"

But then Qi Fei’s tone changed, and she said with a grin, "My dad stopped objecting to us a long time ago. At first, my mom kept asking all sorts of questions, but after she found out you bought me a villa, bought a house in Modu, and even came to Modu to open a company for me, neither of them had any objections."

"In my mom’s words, ’Be safe! She doesn’t want to be holding a grandchild this early!’" Qi Fei was a little shy as she said this, but then she asked worriedly, "You never wrap it up, so how come nothing’s happened? Is there something wrong with one of us? Maybe we should go get checked out!"

Wu Yun: "...There’s no problem! If you want to have a baby, I can give you one anytime!"

Qi Fei, afraid of upsetting Wu Yun, didn’t push the topic. Instead, she said, "My dad wants you to come over for dinner during the New Year!"

"No problem!" ’Wu Yun started planning his New Year’s schedule, trying to figure out how to arrange visits to both Qi Fei’s and Wen Meng’s families without any conflicts.’

’As for Bai Yue, he hadn’t met her parents yet, so that could wait.’

’Sigh, the troubles of having too many girlfriends! Luckily, Wu Yun could always use his company as an excuse, which saved him a lot of hassle.’

"Oh, right! Senior! Has the cast for *Disguiser* been finalized?" Wu Yun felt a little ashamed; he had completely forgotten to ask about Qi Fei’s project recently.

Qi Fei said, annoyed, "Oh, so you do remember to care about your company! I thought you’d dived headfirst into a pile of US Dollars!"

"The film crew has already been assembled! I just went for my costume photo shoot last week. Now we’re just waiting for the notice to hold the production launch ceremony!"

"Lately, I’ve been studying during the day and memorizing my lines at night. I’m completely exhausted! I don’t care! You have to spend New Year’s Eve with me this year!" Qi Fei pouted, throwing a small tantrum.

Wu Yun loved this mercurial side of Qi Fei. He smiled and pinched her cheek. "You need to balance work and rest. Tonight, I’ll help you relax!"

Qi Fei slapped his hand away, putting on a look of mock disgust. "Ha! So that was your plan all along! You’re such a pervert!"

Wu Yun popped the rest of the lion’s head meatball into his mouth and said indistinctly, "And you don’t like it?"

Qi Fei’s beautiful eyes sparkled as she gazed lovingly at Wu Yun. "You’re so bad! I love it~"
