Yu Huan said angrily, "I've looked, but I can't find it!"

Just then, Li Mu walked over with his girlfriend.

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man immediately whispered, "This is the homeowner, Mr. Li. You can talk to him about this; we'll listen to him."

Looking at Li Mu's physique and imposing presence, and the petite and beautiful woman beside him, Yu Huanshui could tell that Li Mu was rich and powerful, and his pride immediately waned.

He hesitated for a moment, just about to speak, when the two walked past him as if no one else was there.

As they walked, his girlfriend said, "Dawei, look, many of the designs for this house are my ideas."

"Here, do you see? We're going to install a big bathtub so we can bathe together."

"And here, install an open-plan European-style kitchen. There will be no oil fumes, which is good for your skin."

“And here…”

As his girlfriend continued talking incessantly, Yu Huanshui finally couldn't help but step forward and interject, "Sir, are you residents here?"

Li Mu finally couldn't hold back any longer and glanced at him, saying, "Who are you?!"

Yu Huanshui said, "I am the owner of the apartment downstairs."

Li Mu asked, "Is something the matter?"

Yu Huanshui said, "Yes...yes..."

"It's a day off today, and your renovations are disturbing the peace!"

Li Mu said, "Am I disturbing the neighbors? I'm sorry to have disturbed your rest!"

Yu Huanshui opened his mouth, about to speak.

Li Mu said, "Speak clearly. I hate people who speak unclearly the most."

Yu Huanshui quickly explained, "Brother, no... I had a toothache and bit a peppercorn in my mouth. It wasn't on purpose."

As he spoke, he stuck out his tongue to show off the Sichuan peppercorns.

Li Mu waved his hand: "Speak your mind!"

Yu Huanshui was timid by nature, and seeing that Li Mu's demeanor was definitely not to be trifled with, he could only whisper, "Big brother, I know you're going to do renovations, and it wouldn't be good to delay things."

“I’m not asking you to stop working on your days off, but could you please start work an hour later? Start at nine o’clock, when everyone is already up, so it won’t affect anyone.”

Li Mu nodded: "Okay!"

Yu Huanshui was pleasantly surprised: "You agreed?"

Li Mu said, "Your suggestion is good. It is indeed not good to affect others. Whether it is completed a few days earlier or a few days later, it is not a big problem."

The middle-aged man hesitated, "Mr. Li, um..."

Li Mu waved his hand: "I'll call your boss in a bit."

The man immediately fell silent.

Li Mu stepped forward and patted Yu Huanshui on the shoulder: "Not bad, little brother! You're to my liking. Give me your phone number, and let me know if you ever need anything. I'll take care of it for you."

Although Yu Huanshui was definitely older, he didn't dare to act like the older brother in front of the imposing Li Mu. After so many tragic years in his life, he was inexplicably moved to suddenly have someone with such a big brotherly demeanor acknowledge him.

"Thank you, Brother Li. My number is..."

Before he could speak, Li Mu reached out and took his phone: "Just dial one number, it's too much trouble to give out the number."

As he spoke, he clicked on the call interface, found the number "Gan Hong" in the recent call log, silently wrote it down, and then dialed his own number.

Upon hearing the phone ring, Li Mu clicked to hang up and returned the phone to Yu Huanshui.

"Hey bro, write down the number. Call me if you need anything."

After exchanging phone numbers, Yu Huanshui was in a good mood: "Thank you, Brother Li, I'll go now."

Li Mu nodded: "Go ahead, let's have a drink together sometime."

Yu Huanshui then went downstairs in a good mood. He, Yu Huanshui, was recognized by some people. He had never seen such a big brother-like person want to be friends with him.

After Yu Huanshui left, his girlfriend looked disdainfully in the direction he disappeared: "That guy is obviously a coward. Why bother with him and even be friends with him?"

Li Mu said, "I may be a bit of a coward, but does that mean I can't make friends?"

His girlfriend snorted and looked at him: "I know you too well. You would only be friends with someone like that. Unless... you have ulterior motives."

Li Mu said, "It's just making friends, what ulterior motives could I possibly have?"

Her girlfriend rolled her eyes and said, "Who knows! Maybe his wife is very beautiful. The moment you saw his wife, you decided you were definitely going to be friends with him."

Li Mu was speechless. Are men's minds so easy to read? In today's society, where is the trust between people? Is there no such thing as pure friendship anymore?

Thinking of this, Li silently took out his phone, entered Gan Hong's phone number, and clicked save.

Chapter 502 Planting Grass on One's Head

Meanwhile, Yu Huanshui happily went downstairs, wanting to brag to his wife and children about his successful negotiation. He, Yu Huanshui, wasn't a coward; his words carried weight. He'd seen powerful figures befriending him and exchanging phone numbers.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I got home, my wife had already taken the children out.

Yu Huanshui was a little annoyed. Since his wife didn't believe he could buy a car, he decided to prove her wrong and surprise her. He immediately called his best friend, Lü Fumeng, and learned that he was in Beijing. They arranged to meet that morning.

Then, I took a taxi and happily went to see my good buddy.

Lu Fumeng completely outmaneuvered Yu Huanshui, thumping his chest loudly. He told him that a car costing 130,000 yuan was too low-end, and that he needed at least a BBA (BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi). He told Yu Huanshui to call any dealership and pick whatever he wanted, and he would pay for it.

Looking at his good buddies and brothers in front of him, Yu Huanshui was moved to tears. Feeling happy, he returned home and started choosing a car online.

On the other side, watching Yu Huanshui go upstairs to negotiate, Gan Hong actually wanted to stop him, fearing that if he met with the upstairs owner, the truth would be revealed. However, she thought about it and realized that it was early in the morning, and which owner would come? Besides, given Yu Huanshui's personality, the more she tried to stop him, the more enthusiastic he would become, so the thought gave her a headache, and she simply decided to ignore it.

Pack your things and take the kids out shopping.

Before leaving the house, Yu Chen asked Gan Hong with a puzzled look, "Mom, why isn't Dad going shopping with us?"

Gan Hong said, "Dad has a toothache and needs to go to the hospital. Wouldn't it be better for Mom to go with him?"

Yu Chen nodded: "Okay, I want Ultraman."

Gan Hong smiled and said, "Okay, Mom will buy it for you."

As a result, before I even left the residential area, my phone rang.

On the other side, Li Mu asked his girlfriend to walk around the renovation site first to check the materials and quality of the renovation. He then took out his phone, found a quiet place, and made a call.

Gan Hong was walking with her son out of the residential area when her phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was an unknown number. She didn't want to answer it, but it kept ringing. She was a little worried that it was a work-related call, but she eventually answered it anyway.

"Hello, Ms. Gan Hong?"

The voice sounded familiar, and Gan Hong's mind went blank for a moment: "Who are you?"

Li Mu said, "Ms. Gan Hong, you really have a bad memory. We just met yesterday and had a long and friendly chat. You've already forgotten about it today."

"Isn't that too heartless!"

Gan Hong suddenly realized what was happening, and her heart skipped a beat: "You...you were here yesterday...how did you get my phone number? How could you possibly have my phone number?"

Li Mu smiled and said, "What's impossible or not? We've got it now. Of course, we also have your husband to thank for all of this."

Gan Hong was a little dazed: "Yu Huanshui... Yu Huanshui gave you my number, how could he... how could he do this... he..."

Li Mu said, "More or less, it was indeed obtained from him."

Gan Hong thought of a possibility, and her body trembled slightly for a moment: "You...you told Yu Huanshui about what happened yesterday?"

Li Mu smiled and asked, "What happened yesterday?"

Gan Hong gritted her teeth and said, "What do you know?"

Li Mu said, "That thing you mentioned! Of course not. I promised to keep it a secret. We're even having dinner together today, how could I possibly tell anyone!"

Gan Hong asked in disbelief, "Then how...how did you get my phone number...I don't believe...I don't believe Yu Huanshui would give it to you."

Li Mu said, "Why can't I give it to him? Yu Huanshui and I hit it off immediately and became good friends right away."

"Since we're good friends, we're not outsiders, and you're not an outsider either. Is it really that difficult to get your phone number?"

Gan Hong's mind went blank for a moment: "You and Yu Huanshui hit it off immediately and became friends. Given his pathetic state, you would actually befriend Yu Huanshui… You… I think you have ulterior motives…"

Li Mu laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, your thinking is wrong. Don't men have any pure brotherly friendship? There has to be some ulterior motive!"

Gan Hong was taken aback: "What did you call me? Sister-in-law?"

Li Mu said, "That's right! As soon as we met, Huan Shui bowed and acknowledged me as his elder brother. Since he's made me his elder brother, aren't you his sister-in-law?"

Gan Hong was stunned by his words: "Yu Huanshui... he... how could he do this... isn't he afraid of inviting trouble? How can you threaten your sister-in-law like this?"

Li Mu said, "How can this be a threat! This is concern? What's wrong with me showing concern for my dear sister-in-law?"

Gan Hong angrily retorted, "You're shameless!"

Li Mu said, "I do. I have thirty-two bright, clean white teeth. Let's make an appointment sometime so I can show them to you."

Gan Hong asked, "What exactly do you want?"

Li Mu said, "Huanshui, as my younger brother, I must take responsibility as your older brother. You two have problems in your relationship, so as your older brother, I asked you to come out and talk things over. What's wrong?"

"Do you still want to maintain a lingering connection with your so-called first love? I'm sorry, Huanshui."

"Let me give you some advice, brother. There are too many scumbags out there, and I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."
