Chapter 870 - 870 0870 Sky-High Priced Red Bull
870: Chapter 0870: Sky-High Priced Red Bull 870: Chapter 0870: Sky-High Priced Red Bull Long Fei waited at the school for Qin Yao to show up, and before he knew it, Friday had arrived.
The end of afternoon classes meant a two-day holiday was upon them.
Under his arrangement, a renovation company subsidiary to Lin’s Group specifically sent people to remodel the shop he had just purchased.
Professionalism certainly made a difference—the team arrived and quickly threw out all the old decorations and furniture.
Long Fei found someone who collected junk and sold everything for a flat hundred, using the money to treat everyone to drinks.
The second-hand tables could actually have been cleaned and reused.
But Long Fei, not being fond of them, insistently sold them off.
Sell he did, and at a bargain price no less.
By the time he arrived after class, the walls were painted, the ceiling was all set up, and the place was decked out like a Western fast-food restaurant.
Tomorrow, once the plumbing and electrical work were done, and the day after, when the utensils were bought, he could open for business when school resumed.
He had the sign crafted in solid wood.
There were famous brands like Wei Family Cold Skin Noodles, Qin Town Cold Skin Noodles, Old Tong Pass Cold Skin Noodles.
He initially thought of ‘Ruyan Cold Skin Noodles,’ but later found it too genteel and changed it to ‘Liuu Family Cold Skin Noodles.’
After all, no one knew who invented this thing, so why not just name it after the surname?
When the workers were putting up the sign, he went up to lend a hand.
As soon as it was hung up, he turned around and saw a familiar figure.
Liuu Ruyan stood behind him, handing him her water bottle, and said, “Why didn’t you ask us for help with the renovation?
Are you deliberately trying to owe us a favor?”
Long Fei took her water bottle, unceremoniously took a sip, and said with a smile, “You know, you could be a little less suspicious!
The renovation team did their job, there was no use calling you guys.
You’re the boss lady now, just wait to open up on Monday.”
Liuu Ruyan pouted and replied, “You’re married, stop teasing me.
You’re the boss, I’m the boss lady, so what does that make your wife?”
Long Fei coughed to change the subject and said, “Speaking of which, have you eaten yet?
How about we go outside for a meal?”
“Fine, I’ll treat you.”
Liuu Ruyan initially wanted to refuse, but she had no reason to.
The guy had been running around busy, buying shops and overseeing renovations—where could you find such a landlord?
When someone treats you well, how could you refuse?
She walked with an unhappy look, her mood downcast, leading Long Fei towards the school gate.
On the way, she asked Long Fei, “Where’s your wife?
Why didn’t you invite her along?”
“She’s at work, she doesn’t have the time.”
Long Fei returned the cup to her.
The delicate water bottle, used by a girl, still carried a faint fragrance of lipstick.
Liuu Ruyan looked at him and said, “Isn’t she a student in the computer science department?”
Long Fei laughed and replied, “You mean Li Wenwen?”
“Who else could I mean?”
Liuu Ruyan furrowed her brows, as if looking at a flirtatious womanizer.
Long Fei casually explained, “Li Wenwen is my sister, my wife is indeed someone else.”
Liuu Ruyan stopped in her tracks, her face full of disbelief, “Your sister’s surname is Li, and yours is Long?”
“Yes, same mother, different fathers.”
Long Fei’s expression remained calm.
Liuu Ruyan couldn’t shake the feeling he was lying, but then again, what did it matter to her if he was?
After all, he had made it clear, he wasn’t pursuing her, so there was no need to lie to her.
With frustration brewing in her heart, she continued following Long Fei, thinking to herself that the heavens must be playing a joke on her, assigning her a married man.
Outside the school, with the beginning of the holiday, the whole street was filled with cars.
From sports cars to commuter cars, it was like a vehicle exhibition.
After Long Fei stepped out, he glanced at the cars on the side of the road and asked Liuu Ruyan, “Do you know why that Audi has several bottles of drinks on its hood?”
“Which one?”
Liuu Ruyan looked over, frowning, “Are they selling drinks?”
Long Fei pulled out a hundred bucks and handed it to her, saying, “Go buy me a bottle and you’ll see.”
“I have money.”
Liuu Ruyan gave him a disdainful look and went over with her little bag on her back.
Long Fei stood behind, chuckling mischievously, waiting for her to come back.
The man in the car lit up at the sight of Liuu Ruyan, his heart almost leaping out of his chest.
Damn, that body, that face, pure top-notch!
On the hood, there was mineral water, green tea, M-spot, and Red Bull.
Liuu Ruyan picked up a Red Bull, glanced at the man in the car, and thought to herself that this boss was really interesting, not coming out to greet customers.
She pointed to the Red Bull and shouted, “How much?”
The man rolled down the window and called out to her, “It’s too hot outside, come up to talk.”
“Huh?”
Liuu Ruyan frowned, thinking to herself that this peddler was really being pretentious.
Was he selling drinks or gold?
She opened the door and climbed in, urgently saying, “How much, hurry up, my friend is waiting for me!”
The man waved his right hand and, swallowing his saliva, said, “Isn’t the market price five hundred?”
“Five hundred?”
Liuu Ruyan was gobsmacked, thinking whether she had encountered a crooked vendor.
This Red Bull at most costs five dollars, is it filled with gold for five hundred?
Seeing her dissatisfaction, the man steeled his heart and said, “If you think that’s too little, I can add another five hundred, how about a thousand?”
“Forget it!”
Liuu Ruyan gave a dry laugh, put down the Red Bull, and hurriedly fled by opening the car door.
Damn it, she hadn’t expected someone to open a rip-off store right outside the school, daring to sell a bottle of Red Bull for a thousand bucks?
Liuu Ruyan felt indignant and muttered that the Bureau of Industry and Commerce should also take care of this.
After returning, Long Fei asked with a smile, “Figured it out?”
Liuu Ruyan gave him a fierce glance, “You knew about this all along, huh?”
“No, I just found out about it myself.”
Long Fei was on a different wavelength from her.
He had indeed just found out about it.
Roommates in the dorm had mentioned this by chance, and today, when he went out, he actually saw someone doing it.
Liuu Ruyan said in frustration, “You knew it was so expensive and still had me buy it for you?
Is that Red Bull filled with gold?”
“Don’t you understand yet?”
Long Fei thought she would have figured it out by now, chuckling to himself.
Apparently, she was just upset about the drink being expensive and not anything else.
“Nuts!”
Liuu Ruyan had no idea what he wanted to say and, turning around, urged him to hurry up and leave.
The Audi driver quickly caught up, yelling at Liuu Ruyan, “Classmate, don’t rush!
If the price isn’t right, we can negotiate!
I’ll add another five hundred, can’t offer more than that.”
Liuu Ruyan was nearly going mad and asked him, “Are you out of your mind, selling a bottle of Red Bull for fifteen hundred, do you have the gall to ask for that much, is there an actual bull inside that Red Bull?”
“What’s this about a real bull or a fake bull?
If you don’t agree, you don’t agree, why the insults?”
The driver looked completely baffled.
Long Fei patted his shoulder and said, “Buddy, wait for the next one!
Fifteen hundred, you’ve got some nerve asking for that, should be at least fifteen thousand to make it worth your while.”
He laughed and pulled Liuu Ruyan away, leaving the driver utterly confused.
The driver muttered resentfully behind them, “What are you so smug about, driving up the prices, you little brat will get what’s coming to you.”
They’d only walked a few steps when a Maserati buzzed over, trailing white smoke, and screeched to a halt beside them.
A woman wearing sunglasses, with large curly hair, dressed in a strappy miniskirt, said mockingly to Liuu Ruyan, “Liuu the campus beauty, am I seeing things?
You actually grabbed a bottle of Red Bull and got into someone’s car?”
