After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

Chapter 54: 54, if the aunt becomes the stepmother



Unlike the other two, who had already started working directly, she took the postgraduate exams last December and was currtly waiting for the results. Although she had always be a top studt, it wasn\'t just about the scores; she hoped to get into her preferred choice, Yanjing University.

"Manni, Wqian, are you guys moving out already?"

Wang Weiwei had just come back from the library to find that the two roommates had their luggage packed and their closets empty.

"Yeah, we were originally moving out tomorrow, but there were some last-minute changes," Xu Wqian replied.

"Oh, I\'ll help you move."

Wang Weiwei was the kind of person who didn\'t talk much usually. Though not particularly close with her roommates, they had never had any conflicts over the four years and were the type that might simply fade into the crowd after university.

In fact, for most people, high school classmates with whom you stay in touch oft outnumber university classmates because high school frids are usually from the same area. Ev without special effort, you might run into them occasionally.

But university classmates are differt, coming from all corners of the country. Many may never see each other again after graduation.

Of course, whether they are high school or university classmates, in the d, there are probably only two or three that you keep in contact with—or sometimes not ev that many.

For most people, their social circle tds to shrink with age. The number of frids a you is always decreasing. Those you once thought would be frids for life might gradually lose contact.

As a child, you don\'t understand the phrase, "The older you get, the lonelier you become," until later wh you begin to comprehd it...

With Wang Weiwei\'s help, the three managed to move all the remaining luggage downstairs in one go.

After packing the trunk full, the second row was almost filled too, leaving just ough room for one adult to sit.

But that was ough. Li Manni could hold Xixi in her arms.

Xu Wqian was assigned to the passger seat, holding several stacked plastic basins in her arms, with two thermos flasks at her feet.

"We actually managed to fit everything in!"

"But, to use such a luxury car for moving, it seems like such a waste."

Xu Wqian, sitting in the passger seat, expressed her stimt.

"Well, a car is just a tool after all,"

Yang Hao said nonchalantly as he rolled down the window. "Say goodbye to your roommate. It\'ll be hard to see each other again."

"Not necessarily, we\'re all still in Jiangchg for now!"

Xu Wqian laughed carelessly but still waved at Wang Weiwei, who stood beside the car, "Weiwei, come hang out with Manni and me wh you have time."

Li Manni also added, "We\'ll sd the location to the group once we get there."

"Mmhmm, have a safe trip~!"

Wang Weiwei waved back at them with a smile on her face, but her gaze inadverttly fell on Yang Hao\'s profile. She had heard quite a bit about Li Manni\'s brother-in-law in their dorm room discussions, but this was the first time she saw him in person, so she couldn\'t help but be a little curious.

She also remembered that Li Manni and Xu Wqian had mtioned in their conversations that all of his hotpot restaurants had closed, forcing him to sell houses and cars to repay debts. So how was he still driving a luxury car worth millions?

About forty minutes later.

Yang Hao parked the car in front of Building 3, Unit , of the Fghua Residtial Area.

He th started carrying the girls\' luggage upstairs. Luckily, being on the third floor was not too high, and they arrived after a short while.

Once inside the apartmt, Li Manni and Xu Wqian took a quick tour. Both of their faces lit up with joy. Although the residtial area was a bit old, the apartmt\'s interior was quite new. The furniture and appliances were all provided, making it a true move-in ready place.

"Brother-in-law, is the rt for this place really just ,800?"

The apartmt exceeded Li Manni\'s expectations, and she asked nervously.

"If you think it\'s too expsive, it can be cheaper."

Yang laughed, the wealthy tycoon that he was, not worrying about such a small amount of rt.

"Uh, no need!"

"It\'s already cheap ough!"

Li Manni shook her head repeatedly, afraid of causing her brother-in-law any trouble.

"Yang, this apartmt isn\'t yours, is it?"

Xu Wqian had a hunch. If this apartmt was merely owned by a frid of Yang Hao\'s, he wouldn\'t have the authority to offer a further discount. Combined with him driving a luxury car worth millions, it seemed quite normal for him to own such an apartmt.

Li Manni, who knew about Yang Hao\'s situation, hadn\'t considered this possibility, since Yang Hao and Xixi were still rting an apartmt themselves.

But now, Xu Wqian\'s guess seemed to explain why the apartmt could be rted out so cheaply to them.

"Smart!"

Yang Hao nodded. Such a thing was impossible to hide; the monthly utility bills always included the homeowner\'s name. Although it wouldn\'t show the full name, the surname would be displayed.

And if one wanted to confirm it was him, a simple question to the property managemt would do the trick.

"I knew it, no one else would rt to us this cheaply!"

"Yang, you\'re too kind, thank you, thank you..." Xu Wqian thanked him profusely.

Li Manni, however, was astounded. She hadn\'t expected their frid\'s guess to actually be true.

"Brother-in-law, but you and Xixi..."

Li Manni wanted to say that the two were still rting a place, but Yang Hao interrupted her with a wave of his hand, "I have another apartmt. I\'ll probably move there in a month or two."

"Ah?"

You have another apartmt??"

Li Manni\'s beautiful eyes wided in shock as she stared at her former brother-in-law, momtarily at a loss for words.

He was supposed to be down on his luck, so how suddly there\'s a house, a car?

She was curious about the origins of the apartmt but with Xu Wqian still there, and since it was a matter of personal privacy, asking directly seemed impolite.

"Alright, let\'s move the stuff first!"

"It\'s also getting late. You still have quite a bit to tidy up."

Yang Hao had no inttion of continuing the topic. The three of them wt downstairs to move things again and managed to bring everything upstairs.

"Manni, go downstairs and say hi to Xixi, and th we\'ll be taking off."

"Mm-hmm."

Li Manni was quick on the uptake, realizing Yang had something to say to her alone; she immediately followed him as he walked downstairs.

Once in the corridor on the g floor, Yang Hao stopped and said, "You can collect Wqian\'s rt for me for the time being. You\'re still an intern and not earning much. Wh you get a permant position and your salary increases, you can give me the total rt th."

"This..."

Li Manni didn\'t know what to say. Yang\'s move effectively meant he wasn\'t taking rt from her and was giving her control over Xu Wqian\'s rt.

She wt from paying rt to collecting it.

"Family doesn\'t talk in twos."

"Let\'s leave it at that. Don\'t be late tomorrow!"

Yang Hao didn\'t give Li Manni a chance to respond, waved his hand, and strode out of the building.

"Brother-in-law..."

Li Manni hurried after him, a thousand words caught in her throat. In the d, she just cautioned, "Drive carefully."

"Hmm, go upstairs."

"It\'s pretty cold outside!"

Yang Hao got into his car, rolled down the window, and waved to Li Manni.

"Auntie, get up early tomorrow~!"

Xixi poked her head out the window and reminded her.

"Don\'t worry, your auntie won\'t be late!"

Li Manni smiled and nodded at the little girl, and th watched the car disappear into the night before turning to go upstairs.

As soon as she tered the apartmt, Xu Wqian grabbed her arm, shaking it while teasing, "Manni, Yang is really great."

"I think one of us ought to repay him by marrying him!"

"Repay?"

"If you married brother-in-law, that would be returning kindness with ingratitude!"

Li Manni gave her frid an exasperated look. Xu Wqian had a great personality, albeit a bit immature; If she really became Xixi\'s stepmother, they might d up fighting over snacks.

For brother-in-law Yang Hao, it would be no differt from raising two daughters, exhausting indeed.

"Well, in that case, it\'s got to be you th!"

Xu Wqian continued teasing with a giggle, "If you really wt from being the aunt to Xixi\'s stepmother, you\'d become my landlord."

"Landlady, remember to give your poor frid free rt..."
