The Landlady and The Amnesiac

did have rich people around her.
As a matter of fact, many of the uncles and grandpas were nouveau riche, each of them worth tens of millions, including this Uncle Cheng in front of her.

If it really came down to it, those childhood sweethearts of hers could somewhat be considered to be little fuerdai‘s, Zhan Qi included.

But, maybe it was because she had known these people since she was a child, she had always felt they were very down-to-earth and they didn’t exude the aura of the wealthy.

They were rich but they were still eager to go to the supermarket to buy items on sale.
They would also complain at a fifty cent increase in price.
They would even lament and grieve for days if the clothes hanging dry on the balcony flew away.

“Don’t pull Beibei into your circle.” Granny Luo said very seriously, Luo Bei was now her only reason for living, “Speaking of your business, remember to be more careful.
It’s fine to profit less, what’s more important is that your employees are safe.”

Uncle Cheng patiently listened to her words.
His mother passed away of illness when he was thirty years old, presumably because she endured a long losing streak in her gambling and from that came her illness.

For Uncle Cheng, Grandma Luo was no different from his mother, no, she treated him much better than his own mother.

It was safe to say that if it hadn’t been for Grandma Luo, Uncle Cheng would absolutely not have been able to have the experience and achievements he had today.

Even if someone wanted to insult him, they couldn’t say that he was all brawn and no brains.
After all, he had graduated junior college and in his era, this was considered a record of higher education.

“Beibei, I heard that Zhan Qi wanted to pursue you?” Uncle Cheng asked.

Luo Bei shook her head, “We’re just friends, there’s nothing between us.”

Uncle Cheng let out a sigh of relief, “That Zhan Qi isn’t capable.
He got cocky just because he started a small business and is profiting some tens of thousands, he’s not an earnest person.
His mother is also rude and unreasonable, everyone knows this.
You’ll definitely suffer if you marry into that household.”

Luo Bei laughingly said, “With Uncle Cheng here, there’s no way I’d suffer.”
