Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 608 Untying the Heart Knot
At noon, at the entrance of the Purple Grape Hotel, Qin Dahe was persuading Li Weiwei, while the two girls were ordering food inside.

"We're living together now, what's the point of you being so clueless and insensitive, besides making your sister feel bad?"

"So that when Ruru breaks up with her boyfriend later, it'll be easier for you to say things like, 'I knew you weren't a good person, I even advised you against it.'"

"That's not what I meant either," Li Weiwei said, lowering her head dejectedly.

Qin Dahe took out a cigarette and offered it to him.

“I went to the Pearl River Delta in September. The way the locals teach children in Guangdong is not like that. The rich kids there only earn 2,000 yuan a month by “hammering axes” to make extra money.”

"That's why they're destined to get rich; they've developed all their skills."

He lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and said with a smile, "Ruru has been spoiled since she was a child. So what if her taste is a little bad? Anyway, she still has you and Uncle behind her."

"If you really break up, it's not hard to find a son-in-law who will live with you."

These days, "first time" is still quite important, and girls who have lived with someone before generally don't get married well.

"I'm just worried about her getting hurt. That man is over thirty and he talks so indecisively, it's really unpleasant to watch."

"No matter how unhappy you are, don't show it. It's worth it to make your sister happy for two years."

"This works?" Li Weiwei looked up in bewilderment. What kind of logic is this guy using?

"I only said that because I consider you two siblings friends." Qin Dahe pursed his lips. "Having a satisfying love experience, even if the ending is a little regrettable, doesn't matter."

"Ce, that's a profound statement." He gave a thumbs up.

"How many relationships have you had? You're so cool."

"Damn it, I got slept with while I was in college. Handsome guys don't need to chase girls at all."

"Haha, you're fucking bragging. You should at least have a draft in mind."

The two joked and played around for a while, and what they had just said finally made him, the older brother, realize something.

My younger sister should be allowed to date if she wants to. She's already slept with someone, so what if it turns out well?

Even if things don't turn out well, having money can always protect you in life.

Just then, a man riding a bicycle came by.

Wearing a white shirt and glasses, with her bangs slightly swept back, she didn't cover her eyes like some of today's non-mainstream celebrities.

The person who came greeted Li Weiwei awkwardly, looking somewhat uncomfortable.

"You must be Teacher Huang. Ruru has good taste." Qin Dahe smiled and offered her a cigarette to ease the tension.

"I don't smoke, thank you."

"Let's go in first, Ruru is already ordering."

He was a little surprised to see that his brother-in-law, who was not cheap, treated him coldly, which was unprecedented for him.

The decor of Purple Grape Restaurant is quite luxurious. The private rooms are on the third floor, and you can take the elevator up after you go inside.

Teacher Huang was very polite to Qin Dahe, and even joked that he got to eat purple grapes this time, something he doesn't usually get to do.

“You are a teacher, and educating people is your job. You are not like us money-grubbing businessmen.”

"There's no difference; being a boss also contributes to the country's prosperity."

"That's too kind of you."

Although Li Weiwei had been advised, she couldn't bring herself to back down for the time being, so she stood sullenly to the side, listening to the two men's compliments.

Upon entering the private room, two women were chatting. Yan Yan turned around and saw someone standing nearby.

"Hello, Teacher Huang."

"You're not from Anhui Medical University, why are you calling me 'teacher'?" Qin Dahe said dismissively, pushing the man back down. "Hehe, I'm from Anhui Normal University, which is just across a food street from Anhui Medical University."

They sat down chatting and laughing, and Qin Dahe called the waiter to start serving the dishes.

"Ruru, you two should buy a car. It's so inconvenient to get around these days," Li Weiwei suddenly said out of the blue.

"I don't have the money. I spent all 100,000 yuan on Moutai."

"We didn't lose much, did we?" Qin Dahe said guiltily.

"I'm still down 11,000 yuan." Ruru felt upset thinking about how all her pocket money had been "stuck" at work.

However, my dad also said that Moutai is reliable and told me not to sell it.

“This is my bank card. You can use it to buy a car for now.” Li Weiwei sighed. “There’s 300,000 yuan in it. The password is your birthday.”

She's still my sister, no matter what. After she moved out, she took the bus to work every day, and he couldn't stand it anymore.

My dad contributed 20% of the 300,000, and the remaining 100,000 was his salary from last year. However, he has more ways to acquire gold coins and is not usually short of money.

"You just gave it to me like that?" Ruru looked at her older brother with a questioning expression. "Where did you get so much money?"

"Do you want?"

"want."

"Then stop talking nonsense. This 300,000 is all yours. Buy whatever you want." He picked up his tea and took a sip, looking annoyed.

"Thank you, big brother." Ruru smiled and leaned over to give him a kiss, but was pushed away in disgust.

“There are so many people here, be mindful of the situation.” Li Weiwei turned to look at Teacher Huang. “I only have this one sister. Let’s not worry about anything else, just treat her well. If there are any minor conflicts, just let it go. If things really get too difficult, I won’t blame you. Just bring her back.”

"I know she's young, and it's my good fortune that she's taken a liking to me. I'll treat her well," Teacher Huang said sincerely.

"Brother." Ruru looked at him with emotion, never expecting her older brother to care for her so much.

"Don't be so sour. We'll go pick out a car this afternoon and have him pick us up and drop us off morning and evening. It's so inconvenient not having a car in this cold weather."

"Okay, ask Mom to get me some gas cards. We need to save our salaries."

"roll roll roll."

Not to mention Li Weiwei, even Dr. Qin and his wife couldn't help but chuckle, that they could still be thinking about gas cards at a time like this.

At this moment, the waiter pushed open the door to the private room and began serving the dishes.

The first dish was cabbage and tofu soup, presented in a Tai Chi shape.

Three main dishes—Eight-Treasure Gourd Duck, Peony Mandarin Fish, and Salt and Pepper Lamb Chops—were served one after another, and you could tell the chef had put in a lot of effort just by looking at their presentation.

The waiter explained that Eight Treasure Duck is made by deboning Chaohu duck, stuffing it with a special eight-treasure sauce, and then braising the whole duck to form a red gourd shape.

The presentation of the peony mandarin fish is beautiful. Each fish slice is rolled into a rose shape, with a total of sixteen slices. It is soaked in a rich soup and sprinkled with goji berries. It looks very appealing.

In the smartphone era, two women would probably need to take several photos.

"You guys are going to bankrupt me!" Li Weiwei said exaggeratedly, as he was treating everyone today.

"It's only a little over a thousand yuan, while your salary is tens of thousands." Ruru said disdainfully.

"That's my commission. Today, Dahe's commission will all go to you."

"He doesn't touch the stocks, so he doesn't have much money." You need to trade stocks to earn transaction fees; if you leave them untouched, you won't make much money.

With their misunderstanding resolved, the siblings' atmosphere improved considerably, and they resumed their usual bickering ways.

Qin Dahe didn't care about anything else and took the initiative to make his move on the salt and pepper lamb chops.
