I just wanted a sweet romance, I never imagined becoming a super-rich person!

Chapter 15 Holy crap, the G-Wagon!

Lu Ran kicked his size 44 foot.

"Don't shout nonsense, this is my friend."

Cheng Ning blushed and introduced herself, "Lu Ran and I are neighbors; he lives across from me!"

"You...you all come and sit down, have some tea."

Seeing that Cheng Ning's physical condition was unusual, Li Shang didn't dare to say anything out of turn and pulled his wife to sit down on the sofa.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I misunderstood."

Cheng Ning smiled and said, "It's nothing."

"Oh, right, I'll go get you some fruit."

As she spoke, Cheng Ning reached for the fruit on the table.

Seeing this, Lu Ran quickly stepped forward and took her arm, saying, "Sit down, I'll get it."

Lu Ran casually poured a cup of hot tea and placed it in front of Cheng Ning before turning around to get some fruit from the kitchen freezer.

Seeing that he was as familiar with the girl's house as he was with his own, Li Shang would never believe there wasn't something going on.

Luo Yushan nudged her husband and gestured towards Lu Ran with her eyes, the meaning was clear: Look at him, he knows how to take care of people.

Li Shang scratched his head and could only respond to his wife with a silly grin.

Luo Yushan ignored her husband and turned to Cheng Ning with a smile, saying, "Hello, my name is Luo Yushan, I am 23 years old. My husband's name is Li Shang. He and Lu Ran are college classmates and best friends."

Luo Yushan is a social butterfly, so she naturally wouldn't let the atmosphere cool down.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Ning smiled and replied, "Hello, my name is Cheng Ning, and I'm two years older than Yu Shan."

Li Shang exclaimed in surprise, "So you graduated in the same year as me and Lao Lu!"

Cheng Ning nodded: "That's right."

Luo Yushan blinked: "Sister Cheng Ning, may I call you that?"

Cheng Ning smiled and said, "Of course."

"Sister Cheng Ning, your house is so beautiful. I've always wanted a house like this, but unfortunately I can only dream about it and can't actually build it. The actual result is completely different from what I imagined."

"Especially these paintings on the wall, they're so beautiful."

Cheng Ning was a little embarrassed: "I drew that myself. I could only draw it based on my feelings, so it's not very good."

"Isn't this good? It's clearly beautiful!"

Luo Yushan's eyes lit up as she stared intently at the painting on the wall.

It seems like they genuinely like it, and it's not just polite talk.

"Come on, have some fruit."

Lu Ran brought out a fruit platter and placed the washed fruit on the table.

Cheng Ning stood up: "You sit with Yu Shan and the others for a while, I'll go pack my luggage."

Lu Ran dried his hands with a tissue and said, "I'll help you pack it up."

Cheng Ning pursed her lips: "No need, I can manage on my own."

"Let me help you."

Seeing that Lu Ran insisted on helping, Cheng Ning could only blush and grit her teeth, saying softly, "I need to go back to my room to choose a change of clothes."

"Ahem, well, okay then, you can take your time with your work."

Lu Ran coughed twice and sat down awkwardly.

As soon as Cheng Ning entered the room, Li Shang raised his hand and patted Lu Ran's shoulder.

"You shameless brat! Tell me, were you plotting something against her?"

Luo Yushan glared at her husband and lowered her voice:

"What do you mean by 'scheming'? Other people are a perfect match, but a goblin like you is the one who's scheming."

Li Shang had a bitter face.

"Honey, you promised to give me face when we're out in public!"

"Tch, then stop being so shameless. Put away your usual cheeky behavior. Sister Cheng Ning looks like a quiet and gentle girl. Don't scare her."

"Okay, honey."

Seeing his good brother completely subdued, Lu Ran felt incredibly satisfied.

Before long, Cheng Ning had packed her luggage.

Lu Ran, being a bachelor, didn't need to prepare anything special; he just threw a change of clothes into a bag and that was it.

The National Day holiday is a peak tourist season, and the later you set off, the more likely you are to get stuck in traffic. So the group didn't linger and after a short rest at Cheng Ning's house, they officially set off.

"Shang, you guys go outside the community first, Cheng Ning and I will go to the underground garage to get the car."

"You actually bought a car?"

Li Shang stared blankly at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran rolled her eyes at him: "If you can get a new car, so can I. What's so strange about that?"

"That's not what I meant. Um, what kind of car did you bring?"

"How about I wait for you on the way? After all, my Geely Xingyue L has a 2.0T engine and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.7 seconds. I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up."

I finally got my new car to see my best buddy, how can I not show it off to him!

As for Li Shang's true colors, Lu Ran already knew about his ulterior motives the day he called to invite her on a trip.

Lu Ran didn't give a direct answer, but casually said, "It's nothing, just a regular car for getting around. The power is barely enough, don't worry, it can keep up with you."

After Lu Ran finished speaking, he ignored Li Shang, pressed the button for the basement, and the elevator doors slowly closed.

Li Shang had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and walk towards the entrance of the residential area with his wife.

The elevator quickly reached the underground parking garage.

Lu Ran took the suitcase from Cheng Ning's hands and, supporting her arm, explained as they walked, "I'm actually quite low-key and not one to show off, it's just..."

He was afraid that Cheng Ning would misunderstand and think he was the kind of materialistic and vain person, so he wanted to explain.

Cheng Ning smiled gently and nodded softly, "I understand."

"You guys' kind of relationship... is pretty good."

Lu Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "It's good that you understand."

When interacting with girls, especially during delicate moments in the relationship, it's important to know how to create a relaxed atmosphere. Being overly rigid and cautious is really inappropriate. Try to do something to make the atmosphere less dull!

[Task: To create a lively atmosphere.]

[Reward: 50 Treasure Chest Experience Points.]

Even the system couldn't stand Lu Ran's clueless behavior.

Lu Ran: ......

Many times he hesitated, wondering whether to trust the system or to trust himself.

He believed that Cheng Ning was a gentle and quiet girl, and that if he were too aggressive, he might scare her away.

But thinking about it carefully, when he acted shamelessly in front of Cheng Ning before... it seems that she wasn't really angry with him.

Moreover, it was only when he acted like a jerk that Cheng Ning would interact with him in a way that differed from that of ordinary friends.

For example, before... I kicked him in anger or something...

"Let's still trust the cheats."

Lu Ran muttered to himself, then began to plan how to liven up the atmosphere.

As he approached the car, Lu Ran had an idea.

"Come on, give me Duoduo, I'll carry it to the car."

Cheng Ning wanted to say that it wasn't necessary, and that she and Duo Duo could sit in the back row together.

But before she could even speak, Duoduo was "snatched away".

Lu Ran put the luggage into the trunk, then put Duo Duo in the back seat, and then closed the car door behind him.

"Lu Ran, I...I'll sit in the back..."

"Hey, sitting in the back is so inconvenient, let's sit in the front, that way we'll be closer."

Cheng Ning blushed and was helped into the passenger seat by Lu Ran.

Moreover, Lu Ran personally fastened her seatbelt, leaving her no time to refuse.

Annoyed, he thought: How can this person be so gentle one minute and domineering the next?

[Your sudden shamelessness made Cheng Ning's heart race. Well done.]

[Gained 50 treasure chest experience points.]

[Current stored experience points: 280.]

This is a bit slow. It seems I'll have to wait until I finish the five-day National Day trip and the Heartbeat Challenge before I can continue to enjoy opening treasure chests.

"Get ready, let's go!"

Lu Ran stepped on the gas and started the car, driving it out of the residential area. At this time, Li Shang and his wife were already in the car waiting for them.

Lu Ran rolled down the car window and waved: "Let's go."

Li Shang watched as a Mercedes-Benz G-Class sped right up to his face, driven by Lu Ran. He rubbed his eyes, unable to believe it was real.

"Holy crap."
