Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 249 - 248: Speaking Without Thinking and Getting Hit
Lin Wanwan had completed all the procedures and was just waiting to pick up the car, completely ignoring what Wang Jiali was scheming in her mind beside her.
Normally, it takes about three months to pick up a car, but after Lu Shouyue made a phone call, it became available in just half a month.
Truly, there is nothing in this world that’s unchangeable. Lin Wanwan smiled and thanked Lu Shouyue.
Just as they were about to leave the Porsche showroom, Wang Jiali, driven by jealousy, suddenly shouted at Lu Shouyue, "Hey handsome, do you know the internet celebrity next to you has a messy lifestyle and even secretly has a child? It’s all over the internet, don’t be fooled by her!"
Lin Wanwan turned back in surprise to look at Wang Jiali. This woman’s habit of hurting others without benefiting herself indeed hadn’t changed at all. Jealousy truly distorts people’s appearances.
It’s true that she has a child, but to say she has a messy lifestyle is blatantly throwing mud at her.
Lin Wanwan didn’t waste words and quickly turned back.
"Slap!"
She gave a direct and clean slap—not very forceful, but Wang Jiali’s face still swelled quickly, with the five fingerprints clearly visible, ruining her makeup.
Lin Wanwan coldly said, "Keep your mouth clean. People with filthy thoughts see everything as dirty. I didn’t hold you accountable for throwing away my clothes and makeup last time. Do you think I’m a sick cat?"
The people around were first shocked by Wang Jiali’s mindless outburst, and then by Lin Wanwan’s decisive action!
This—starting a fight over a disagreement, isn’t it way too spicy?
"You, you dare to hit me?" Wang Jiali finally reacted from the shock as the pain set in.
Lin Wanwan grabbed her hand that was trying to hit back and said indifferently, "I hit you for that foul mouth, not satisfied? If you dare to talk trash again, I’ll hit you every time I see you!"
"You, you, you—" Wang Jiali’s wrist hurt from being grabbed, and she couldn’t speak coherently. Seeing the eyes of the people around as if they were mocking her, she whimpered and covered her face to cry.
Lin Wanwan let go of her hand, stood up, and no longer paid her any attention, directly walking out.
Meanwhile, Wang Jiali not only didn’t receive any consolation from the Porsche showroom organizers but was instead severely reprimanded, told to have the model contact person replaced, and even lost her job—truly losing more than she bargained for.
On the outside, Lin Wanwan took off her mask and took a deep breath, feeling quite relieved. After all, she had taken revenge on the spot and wasn’t the one who got hit, so how could she not feel pleased?
Lu Shouyue thought she was angry and comforted her, "Wanwan, don’t take such foolish words to heart. Once you’re famous, there will be a lot of absurd rumors online, not worth even a glance." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Lin Wanwan flicked her hair and gave Lu Shouyue a bright smile, "Of course, she’s not worth my attention."
Then she glanced behind and said to Lu Shouyue, "Mr. Lu, aren’t you leaving with your friend?"
Lu Shouyue shrugged and said, "He has his own car and has to wait until after work to pick up his many girlfriends, no need for me to wait."
Lin Wanwan laughed, "Truly a national husband, so popular with women."
Wang Bocheng’s father is an internet mogul, and his mother is a second-generation red, living in the same compound as Lu Shouyue’s mother.
As the only son of a magnate and being so flamboyant, he naturally attracts a lot of attention from netizens, with many internet celebrities calling him ’husband’ under his social media, thus earning the title ’National Husband.’
Lu Shouyue laughed and disparaged, "He probably won’t get married his entire life, always a lover, never a husband."
Wang Bocheng had publicly declared himself an advocate of non-marriage, so those who dated him were well aware, indulging in freedom while young and fulfilling their respective needs.
Lin Wanwan shrugged, uninterested in matters involving someone she’s almost a stranger to.
"Shall we go for lunch together?" Lu Shouyue invited.
"No, I want to go home."
"Then let me give you a ride. Now that you’ve got your license, I can accompany you for some practice."
Lin Wanwan was indeed tempted by this proposal and smiled in gratitude, "Then I’ll trouble you, Mr. Lu."
At the parking lot, Lin Wanwan saw the Bugatti supercar again and said, "It’s rare to see you driving this car."
Lu Shouyue replied, "It’s not me driving this car today, it’s that guy Wang. I’m driving this Phaeton next to it."
Lin Wanwan took a look and indeed saw Lu Shouyue’s usual Volkswagen parked beside the Bugatti.
On the way back, Lin Wanwan drove while Lu Shouyue sat in the passenger seat guiding her. She thought Lin Wanwan would be nervous, but to her surprise, everything went smoothly.
Lin Wanwan may not have other skills, but her mental resilience is strong, especially after becoming a barefoot doctor, her mindset is as steady as a mountain.
She can ride a horse, which is all muscle on flesh, so why would she fear a car made of metal around flesh? Impossible. As long as she memorizes the traffic rules and adheres strictly to them, she believes she can handle a mere car.
After getting home, Lin Wanwan didn’t immediately return to the Great Tang because now there is a time flow difference. One night of eight to nine hours in the Great Tang meant she could stay a day and a half in the modern world, doing many things and learning a lot.
She had been postponing the purchase of wood due to the busy farming season and various trivial matters but could finally do it this time.
For someone like her who buys raw wood online and plays the "wood betting" game, she’s practically pioneering. For those in the wood betting industry, betting is always like a wound that breathes.
"One slice poor, one slice rich, one slice leaves you with only your underwear" is the classic saying in the wood betting circle. Yellow Flower Pear wood bets are the most nerve-wracking.
But all these rules don’t apply to Lin Wanwan. The modern world may lack Yellow Flower Pear wood, but the Great Tang still has an entire forest of it!
After she buys these modern woods, she piles them up in her own yard and secretly swaps them for the Yellow Flower Pear wood she purchased in the Great Tang, completing the wealth transfer without anyone noticing.
But now that there’s no shortage of money, there’s no rush to finish this task at once. Move some today, and some tomorrow, no need to hurry.
As soon as Yellow Flower Pear wood appears in the modern market, it receives frenzied interest from "wood fanatics," and its value is astonishingly high!
Yellow Flower Pear wood and Agarwood, under the hype of timber merchants, have become all sky-high prices.
Take Yellow Flower Pear wood for instance, from 20,000 yuan per ton in 2002 to 8 million yuan per ton now! The raw material is expensive, and the finished product even more so. A set of Yellow Flower Pear wood furniture used to be tens of thousands, now a set for several hundred million isn’t surprising.
Last year, Lin Wanwan bought an entire boatload of Yellow Flower Pear wood in Qiong State of the Great Tang, its value is boundless. If it were directly introduced into the modern market, it would certainly cause a stir in the industry.
Therefore, Lin Wanwan didn’t plan to be so high-profile. She’s gradually releasing the goods.
Even so, in a small circle within the wood betting world, Lin Wanwan quickly made a name for herself and earned the title of a small wood betting saint.
No matter how she does it, the raw wood bought turns into Yellow Flower Pear wood with distinct tree heart grain and almost no flaws in her hands, absolutely top-notch goods.
