I Play Dungeons in the Police Station

Chapter 462 - 275: This Is a Win-Win

Lin Feifei immediately called the person in charge of the renovation company, asking them to come over right away.

The renovation manager arrived at the site with the designer within half an hour, and Lin Feifei accompanied them for another walk-through, pointing out all the areas she found unsatisfactory.

"Manager Liu, from these areas, it’s clear that your company is extremely irresponsible in terms of renovation. We’ve paid every penny of the progress payments, and this is the quality you deliver. This makes me seriously doubt your company’s reputation in the industry."

"Yes, yes, this is our fault. We’ll make corrections immediately. Please, Miss Lin, give us another chance."

"We’ve already given you a chance, or we wouldn’t have chosen your company. I don’t want this kind of thing to happen again. If it does, don’t blame me for not giving face to your President Zhao."

"Yes, yes."

Manager Liu wiped the sweat from his forehead. He originally thought this project would be easy, but now he realized the client’s requirements and standards are very high, not easy to fool, and he had to immediately contact workers to redo the job.

"Wife, your aura just now was so strong, very boss-like."

It was also the first time Li Xiang had seen Lin Feifei this serious. Her every move and tone of speech were so different from usual, oozing with pressure.

He even broke a sweat for Manager Liu.

"These people are all seasoned players. If you’re not tough on them, they’ll think you’re easy to fool."

Lin Feifei proudly raised her head. Having dealt with the world since she was young, she saw through people very well. The nicer you are, the more they’ll take advantage, thinking you’re easy to deceive, and then they’ll deceive you. When you don’t realize it, they get away with it. Once the money’s transferred, they don’t care anymore. If something breaks later, they’ll blame it on you. You can’t say anything against it.

"Still, my wife is amazing. Let me give you a reward."

"Are you rewarding me or rewarding yourself? You got saliva all over my face."

"It’s a win-win, okay."

Lin Feifei: "..."

You’ve learned the term ’win-win’ well.

At noon, mom made a table full of delicious food. Li Xiang hadn’t tasted mom’s cooking in a while, so he devoured it greedily, oil dripping from his mouth.

"Eat slowly, no one’s fighting over it. Here, Feifei, you eat more too. You’re slimmer than last time you came back."

"Really? Am I really slimmer?"

Hearing Li’s mom saying she lost weight made Lin Feifei very happy, it seems her figure management had been effective.

"This child, why are you so happy being called slimmer?" Li’s mom didn’t quite understand. In her view, chubbier girls look happier and blessed.

"I’m a singer. If I get fat, no one will listen to me sing."

"What does getting fat have to do with singing?" Li’s mom was even more puzzled: "Still, it’s better to be a bit plump, better nutrition when you have kids. Speaking of which, when are you two getting married? While we’re still young, we can help take care of your kids."

Here we go again～

No matter the topic, Li’s mom could steer it to marriage and having kids.

But this time, Li Xiang didn’t choose to dodge: "Dad, mom, I was just about to discuss this with you, we’re planning to get married next year."

"Really?"

Upon hearing this good news, Li’s mom’s face immediately lit up with delight. Previously, whenever marriage was mentioned, they’d bolt away. Now, thanks to her urging, the young couple finally decided to get married.

This was her doing.

Li’s mom felt proud and elated inside.

"Yes, really."

Lin Feifei, blushing, nodded, not daring to look at everyone’s expressions.

"Getting married early is good."

The son finally got it, so as a mom, she’s got to prepare well: "I’ll find someone to check for a good date next year and then we’ll set the wedding date. Are you planning to get married at a hotel or hold a banquet back home?"

"Back home. Given my current status, it’s not suitable to make a big fuss."

Regarding this, Li Xiang was cautious. The policy is against using weddings or funerals to accept gifts, so he shouldn’t act recklessly. If someone envious reported him, it would surely be a trouble.

Good things turn bad easily.

There’s an old saying about not showing off wealth, which he understood well. Keeping things lowkey was wise.

He wasn’t aware that someone already reported him to the city’s disciplinary committee over just this new house.

The committee found out Li Xiang’s money came directly from the provincial finance department, so they didn’t dig deeper.

There are always people suffering from the envy disease, unable to tolerate others doing better.

The family sat around the table discussing next year’s wedding affairs.

"By the way, have you bought your jewelry yet? You should take your daughter to pick some out."

"Not yet, we’ve been quite busy lately, planning to look sometime these days."

They had enough time off this time, and indeed needed to use this chance to choose some jewelry and hopefully get their wedding photos done.

If they got busy later, who knows when they’d have another long break.

For his job, a week off was truly rare.

After returning home, Li Xiang took Lin Feifei shopping at the mall.

"Dear, we haven’t gone shopping together in a long time. Today, you have to shop with me to my heart’s content."

"Alright, alright, I’ll accompany you with whatever you want this week."

Li Xiang knew that when he got busy, Lin Feifei was often left out, so this shopping trip was also to make up for it.

However, once they started shopping, Lin Feifei just kept taking Li Xiang around to buy, trying on this clothing to see if it fit, and that pair of shoes to see if it was comfortable.

"Wife, don’t just buy me stuff. My unit issues clothes for every season, there’s no point in buying more."

"Don’t you need to have some clothes of your own?"

Lin Feifei gave him a look: "You can’t wear your uniform to every occasion, right?"

"I have casual clothes too."

"You mean those outdated ones? Looking like a student, today we’ll get you a couple of decent outfits."

Li Xiang was pulled by Feifei to various brand clothing stores, trying on this outfit, then that one.

Sometimes nodding, sometimes shaking their heads.

"Miss, your husband looks really handsome in this outfit, like a model."

The nearby sales assistant also thought Li Xiang looked like a clothes rack, just as anything he wore suited him.

Li Xiang was no longer the Li Xiang from a year ago. Two years ago, he wasn’t confident and only bought street vendor clothes, never spending more than a hundred yuan.

Now, having been through systematic training and various scenarios, he exuded a different charm.

His posture became more upright, and his demeanor improved.

He could carry any outfit well, no wonder the sales assistant praised him for looking like a model.

"Indeed, not bad. This one and this one, and this one too, let’s wrap them all up."

"Alright, Miss, you have a great eye. These selected sets are the best styles in our store, I’ll wrap them up for you right away."

The sales assistant couldn’t suppress her smile when she saw Lin Feifei buying so much at once, her compliments flowing freely.

"Why buy so much? It’s just me, I can’t wear them all."

Li Xiang rarely bought clothes in sets, he used to rotate between two sets until they wore out.

"The New Year’s coming soon, consider it early shopping for new clothes."

"Then we should also buy you a few sets."

"I have plenty of clothes, many are gifts from sponsored brands, don’t you worry about me."

Li Xiang thought it made sense. His wife was a celebrity, receiving custom-made outfits from sponsors that fit better than store sizes, so he didn’t insist further.
