647: C647 Money Is Capricious

C647 Money Is Capricious

Why?

Miao Lee asked unwillingly in her heart.

Her face turned pale and her body trembled slightly.

Compared to her, she did not expect that Fang Rui would be jealous because of a bumpkin.

It could only be said that women who were jealous were especially terrifying, especially when she was already used to comparing everything Faang Rui had with herself.

"Are you alright?"

Faang Rui suddenly asked with concern beside her.

Miao Lee's expression trembled and she lowered her head unconsciously. A deep hatred flashed in her eyes.

What she hated the most was Faang Rui always speaking to her in such a caring tone. This made her feel a deep sense of guilt towards what she had done in the past, including what she was doing now.

But soon after, her thoughts were dispelled by Shen Chang's words.

She did not have the time to think about it. At least, she had to protect her position for now.

"Rui, Xiao Mi doesn't seem to like me very much. Can you help me say a few good words?" Miao Lee raised her head and squeezed out a smile with difficulty.

After saying that, she quickly lowered her head and asked Faang Rui for help. This made her feel even more uncomfortable than killing herself.

"Okay!" Faang Rui did not seem to notice and hurriedly nodded.

She could not remember how long it had been since Miao Lee had spoken to her in such a gentle manner.

Not long after, Faang Rui walked to Xue Xiaomi's side and whispered a few words of persuasion. The girl with freckles on her face helplessly looked at Mo Nan and then walked to Miao Lee's side.

"Hello, let's get to know each other again. My name is Xue Xiaomi."

Xue Xiaomi said expressionlessly.

But no matter what, Miao Lee finally heard her talking to him. She smiled and started chatting casually with her.

She also knew that even if she was anxious now, she could not reveal her intentions to Xue Xiaomi immediately. Otherwise, if the girl were to discover her intentions, she would only leave a bad impression.

Therefore, Miao Lee at most only asked about Xue Xiaomi's family background in a roundabout manner.

...

The road up the mountain was not long. If the manor was big, they would be able to see the gate of the manor within a kilometer.

Xue Xiaomi rushed up from behind and greeted the security guards at the gate of the manor. This allowed them to enter the manor and take a look at the interior of the manor.

"So big, so beautiful!"

Sun Qian covered her mouth and sighed with emotion after entering. This was her first feeling.

Shen Chang, who was one step behind, fell into deep thought after entering the door. He realized that he had underestimated the Xue family's foundation, so when he saw Miao Lee return to his side, he asked in a low voice.

"How is your conversation with that girl called Xiao Mi?"

"Not much." Miao Lee shook her head and smiled bitterly. She hesitantly said to Shen Chang,

" Do you think too much? "

"What do you mean?" Shen Chang frowned.

Miao Lee quickly continued, "I tried to ask. Xue Xiaomi doesn't know much about the brands used by girls. Most of the brands she knows are of average quality. No matter how you look at them, they don't look like the children of big families."

"Really?"

Shen Chang was confused.

It was not that the children of the rich must know about branded goods, but they were in the upper circle. They would know a thing or two about branded goods. If Xue Xiaomi really did not know anything about branded goods as Miao Lee had said, there would be a problem.

"Then what's the matter with this manor?"

Shen Chang turned around and looked in front of him. He could not hide the shock in his eyes.

It was spectacular. God knew how much money had been invested to build this manor. One should know that the average manor was either small or slightly bigger. At most, it would be built with pavilions and ornamental buildings. Even if it was put into operation, it could make money.

After all, it was not a small amount of money to transport the construction materials from the foot of the mountain.

The manor in front of them was not only huge, but all the ground was paved with cobblestone paths. The roadside was also greened and retained the original vegetation on the mountain. This increased the difficulty of the construction.

There were also all kinds of restaurants and buildings. It did not look grand, but in fact, if it was built, it would be much more troublesome than building a building.

Because these buildings involved the problem of design and material selection, it was more complicated than building a common building.

In short, Shen Chang could not imagine how much money the Xue family had spent to build this manor.

Miao Lee looked not far ahead and saw a fountain with a diameter of ten meters and a height of twenty meters. She could not help but sigh in her heart. After thinking for a while, she explained.

"There isn't a wealthy family called the Xue family in Modu. You must know this better than me."

"Xue Xiaomi also said just now that this was invested by her grandfather and some friends. Do you think the real sponsors are his grandfather's friends?"

"Maybe they were his grandfather's comrades or something. Didn't the older generation care about these feelings?"

Miao Lee said vaguely. She had never understood the friendship of the older generation. At this time, she pretended to not know.

Shen Chang nodded and agreed.

"What you said makes sense."

After he finished, he sighed again. "It's a pity. If the Xue family is only friends with the one who invested in this place, it would be meaningless for us to get closer to them."

If that was really the case, the fact that the other party could help the Xue family was already due to their friendship in the past. As for helping the Shen family because they were friends with the Xue family?

No matter how he thought about it, it was impossible.

"I'll listen to you." Miao Lee seemed to be secretly relieved when she heard that.

After all, if Shen Chang forced her to continue making friends with Xue Xiaomi, she would inevitably have to face Faang Rui. That was the situation she was most unwilling to encounter.

"Hmph." Shen Chang noticed her abnormality and snorted lightly. Then, he looked at Xue Xiaomi's expression not far away and completely withdrew his thoughts.

He saw Xue Xiaomi's surprised expression in the distance, which made him completely believe his guess.

He didn't know that Xue Xiaomi had a completely different thought at this moment.

"This isn't right."

Although Xue Xiaomi looked surprised, his eyes were full of protest.

"You said you would leave me a piece of land and build me a playground. Why didn't you see it?"0

"You were fooled, weren't you?"

Mo Nan smiled and looked at her speechlessly. "Besides, even if the Xue family is rich, you don't have to squander like this, do you?"

"Do you know how difficult it is to build a playground in the mountains?"

Putting aside how troublesome it was to transport a large amount of steel here, just to flatten the ground was a shocking expense.

"I don't care. Who asked them to agree to me before?"

Xue Xiaomi arched his nose and said.

Mo Nan was completely helpless.

It was just that the two of them chatted casually and seemed to have forgotten that there was Faang Rui beside them.

The corner of the beautiful woman's mouth couldn't help but twitch. "Today, I have seen what it means to be rich and willful. Xiao Mi, you secretly tell me how much money your family has."

"Don't say the exact number." Faang Rui seemed to feel that she could not take such a big stimulation. Seeing that Xue Xiaomi was about to open his mouth, she hurriedly added:

"Just tell me what the concept of having money is."
