Chapter 148: If You Try to Sell It to Me at Half Price Again, I'll Skin You Alive!

Ming Lu was unfazed by her glance and even let out a low chuckle in good spirits before saying, "The preparations are ready, but I can’t give it to you just yet."

Ye Luo simply turned her head and looked out the window.

Ming Lu chuckled softly again. His Luoluo truly liked that thing.

Hearing his quiet laughter, Ye Luo ignored him, expressionless as she continued gazing outside while sipping her hot chocolate.

...

The next day, Ye Luo received a message from Ye Wuqi at six in the morning, saying they would definitely come to visit her today, though he didn’t say exactly when.

It wasn’t until nine in the morning that Ye Wuqi sent another message, saying they had set off but would take about an hour to arrive.

By ten o’clock, assuming they had arrived, Ye Luo left her room, preparing to head downstairs.

As she stepped out, Ming Lu came out of the adjacent room, and the two happened to meet.

Today, Ming Lu was dressed casually, his entire demeanor exuding a lazy, devilish charm.

He hadn’t expected to run into her the moment he stepped out, so he paused briefly, then smiled and asked, "Have they arrived?"

"They should be here soon," she replied flatly before heading downstairs.

Ming Lu followed behind leisurely, his long legs carrying him with calm confidence.

Downstairs, Ye Luo saw Song Linfeng in the living room, also dressed casually.

“Miss Luo Luo,” Song Linfeng greeted her first, then hurried over to Ming Lu, smiling, “That Bugatti Veyron you said you were going to give me? I’ve already taken it out. When I leave, I’ll drive it away.”

Ming Lu glanced at him.

Sitting down on the sofa, he took the coffee the butler respectfully handed him and said coolly, “If you dare sell it to me at half price again, I’ll skin you alive.”

Song Linfeng immediately forced a smile, “I won’t, I won’t.”

Ye Luo paid no attention to their banter and walked straight outside to the villa gate to see if her ancestor had arrived.

Seeing no sign of her ancestor, she found it odd and called him.

As soon as he answered, he said, “We’re almost there, just about five more minutes! I can already see the roof of the villa!”

Since it was only five minutes away, Ye Luo stayed outside at the gate, waiting.

Three minutes later, Ming Lu came out and stood beside her. Following her gaze, he saw no one yet, so he crossed his arms and leaned lazily against the large iron gate like he had no bones.

“Not easy to take care of, huh?” Ming Lu looked at her with a low laugh.

Knowing he meant her ancestor wasn’t easy to handle, Ye Luo ignored him completely, not even glancing his way.

Ming Lu wasn’t offended.

Just then, Ye Luo finally saw her ancestor’s figure.

He stood with Yan Baba, Qin Zhaoyu, and Qin Zhaowen on a dilapidated, barely holding together three-wheeled pedal tricycle; Lei Xingxing sat alone in front, sweating profusely, pedaling hard as he carried them along.

So this was the “car” her ancestor mentioned?

Ye Luo: “...”

Ming Lu’s mouth twitched slightly.

All five wore windbreakers in different colors, with Qin Zhaoyu’s rainbow-colored jacket standing out the most.

“Big Sister Luo! Big Sister Luo!”

“President Ming!”

The four standing on the rickety vehicle waved excitedly at Ye Luo and Ming Lu.

As soon as Lei Xingxing stopped the creaking tricycle in front of Ye Luo and Ming Lu, Qin Zhaoyu immediately jumped off.

Then Qin Zhaowen followed.

Ye Wuqi and Yan Baba didn’t rush to get off. Both grinning, they placed one foot heavily on the edge of the vehicle, preparing to leap down with a heroic flourish.

But suddenly, the tricycle gave a creak and truly fell apart. The ground beneath their feet vanished, and in an instant, both of them tumbled forward.

By sheer coincidence, they both landed kneeling right before Ye Luo and Ming Lu.
