Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

Soon, Fang Huiya brought the shy Miao Peipei to Fang Huiya's residence.

This is another one-bedroom apartment that Li Xiaofeng bought, specifically for his rendezvous with Fang Huiya. Fang Huiya often comes here to rest as well.

"Xiaofeng, I brought Peipei with you and I've already talked to her. You two can talk slowly. I have class to attend!"

"Well, you go ahead!"

Fang Huiya waved goodbye to the two people. Li Xiaofeng sat down on the sofa with an air of nonchalance and gestured to Miao Peipei: "Don't stand, sit down!"

"Oh!" Miao Peipei sat down shyly, looking very reserved.

"Tell me, how much money do you plan to need each month?"

Miao Peipei blushed and lowered her head, saying softly, "Mr. Li, just give me whatever you think is appropriate!"

"What do you mean by 'paying whatever you see'? If I said I'd give you a thousand dollars a month, would you still be willing to work there?"

"Actually, as long as you're good to me, that's enough!"

"Stop talking nonsense. I have no interest in arguing with you. You do the math yourself. How much money would be enough for you?"

Miao Peipei hesitated for a long time before weakly asking, "Is five thousand yuan a month okay?"

Seeing that Li Xiaofeng seemed somewhat displeased, he quickly added, "If you think it's too much, four thousand is fine too, it's enough for me!"

Li Xiaofeng said impatiently, "What nonsense are you spouting? Five thousand yuan a month, don't even think about anything else. And whatever I tell you to do, you have to do it obediently. Do you understand?"

Miao Peipei nodded somewhat reservedly.

In Li Xiaofeng's mind, if someone gives you something below market price, then the other party must be offering discounts in some way or have other demands on you.

The former: I spend money to enjoy myself, so why give me a discount? I might as well not spend a penny at all.

The latter: I'm paying you to do things for me, not to do things for you. Don't bring your own trivial matters to my attention.

Therefore, even in his previous life, Li Xiaofeng never wanted to take advantage of others, and now that he is quite wealthy, he has even less reason to do so.

So he picked up the phone and called Lü Zhendong: "Second brother, I've taken care of Miao Peipei for you. You only need to pay five thousand yuan a month!"

"Hey, third brother, you weren't taking kickbacks in there, how come you have so much money!"

Li Xiaofeng roared in fury: "Second brother, what nonsense are you spouting? I, Li Xiaofeng, have plenty of ways to make money. Do I need to make this little bit of money? Are you out of your mind?!"

"Third brother, don't be angry. You know I only have a little money. Five thousand a month, that's sixty thousand a year. Even if I don't buy anything else, I'll be broke after graduation!"

“You can earn more money if you run out. Cao Jinpeng can work on construction sites. Your family has connections, so you can do that too. Just do a few projects and the money will come!”

"Third brother, thank you for your kindness, but after thinking about it, I think we should just forget about it. I don't believe you can buy love with money. Besides, we should be thrifty and manage our household well, not wasteful like this!"

Li Xiaofeng earnestly said, "Being thrifty and frugal is my ass! Is this something a rich kid like you should say? Ordinary people don't have many ways to make money. Their main source of income each month is their salary. Being thrifty and frugal is something they have no choice but to do."

As a second-generation rich kid with abundant resources, the most important thing is to broaden your horizons, increase your income, not hoard it. Is being frugal and thrifty something a second-generation rich kid should be doing?

At this moment, he realized one thing: he is himself, and others are others.

People think differently!

Some people, no matter how rich they are, are still stingy, especially those who have climbed up from the bottom. Those habits that are suitable for the life of the poor are still deeply rooted.

However, now that things have come to this, he can only continue down the wrong path and try to persuade the other party to see if things can be salvaged.

"Third brother, I'm not some rich kid. My dad gives me a few thousand yuan for living expenses every semester. I'm counting on that money to improve my life!"

My maximum monthly extra expense limit is one thousand yuan; anything more than that is unacceptable!

Damn, this guy is a real miser, he's so stingy, how are we going to make things work out?

"Lu Zhendong, a thousand yuan? You have the nerve to say that? If I had known you were this kind of person, I wouldn't have embarrassed myself for you!"

At this moment, Li Xiaofeng was filled with regret. He glanced awkwardly at Miao Peipei, whose expression was also somewhat embarrassed, and wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground.

These days, it's really hard to be a good person; you end up getting nothing done and just causing yourself a lot of trouble.

"Third brother, don't be angry. It's just that I feel it's not worth it. Wouldn't it be better to keep this money and buy some good food?"

Hearing Lu Zhendong's words, Li Xiaofeng wished he could kill himself. He gritted his teeth and said, "Eat, eat, all you know is how to eat. You might as well eat yourself to death."

"A perfectly good rich kid like you doesn't even care about managing your figure, all you do is eat. People calling your family nouveau riche or nouveau riche is absolutely right!"

You know, this guy is already quite chubby.

"Third brother, I don't actually have any major grudges against Miao Peipei, as you think. It's been so long since then, I'm just a little unhappy!"

Besides, she's already with Boss Cao, why should I be the one to take her in? If you like her, you might as well take her in, since you're rich and stupid!

Third brother, I've been wanting to give you some advice. It's not easy for you to earn money, so don't waste it all day. You should save it for your future wedding. This kind of money is really unnecessary!

"Damn it, Lü Zhendong, you bastard! If I ever get involved in your mess again, I'll change my surname to yours!"

After saying that, Li Xiaofeng angrily hung up the phone.

Seeing Miao Peipei's strange expression and somewhat embarrassed demeanor, Li Xiaofeng was about to explain something when he heard Miao Peipei ask in confusion, "President Li, wasn't it you? How did it become Lü Zhendong?"

What? What do you mean? Did something go wrong in the middle and cause some kind of blunder?

Li Xiaofeng was a little confused and asked, somewhat at a loss, "Didn't Huiya tell you?"

“She told me, she asked me if I was willing to work with you and how much money I would need each month. Actually, I wanted to tell you this when you went to the company last time.”

"It's just that there hasn't been a suitable opportunity, and you don't seem to like me very much, Mr. Li. Do you have some misunderstanding about me?"

Li Xiaofeng rubbed his forehead in frustration, guessing that he hadn't explained himself clearly on the phone, and Huiya had definitely misunderstood him.
