C13 The Poorest Rich Man
"You're my little apple. I love you so much."
After enjoying the music for about 10 minutes, Lin Fei's phone rang. Lin Fei saw that it was Wang Jie.
Wang Jie was his colleague and also his best friend in the company. Apart from work, they also had a good relationship in private.
Lin Fei did not need to think about the reason for the call. He must have called to ask him why he hadn't come to work yet.
"Hello, Wang Jie, what is it?"
Lin Fei answered the phone.
"What is it? Lin Fei, do you want to die? Why haven't you come to work yet? Don't you know you're late?
"The general manager is about to start the roll call. I also heard that the boss will be coming over soon. If the boss learns that you're late, I'm afraid you won't be able to claim this month's bonus!"
Wang Jie's words were like a machine gun, firing nonstop at him. It seemed that he was even more anxious than Lin Fei, the person involved.
Lin Fei could feel his sincerity. The guy remembered him in his time of need.
"Wang Jie, I—"
"Alright, cut the crap. I'll tell the general manager that you went to the toilet. I'll cover for you for a while. Hurry up and get a taxi to come over!"
Lin Fei wanted to say that he was going to resign, but before he could finish, Wang Jie interrupted him. He said his piece and hung up the phone.
Wang Jie's action made Lin Fei feel warm in his heart. He was touched. He had witnessed the evil in the people's heart with his own eyes.
Hence, he was fortunate to have a sincere friend in this concrete forest where people treated each other with indifference.
"This is good too. You have to stick to it until the end. Anyway, there's nothing urgent for me to do. I can go to the company and hand in my resignation letter. This can be considered a perfect ending for my working identity!"
Lin Fei put down the phone and pondered for a moment. In the end, he decided to go to the company to settle the resignation procedures. He would also treat Wang Jie to a meal and thank him personally for being so kind to him. One must show appreciation every once in a while.
After that, he would go to the sales department of Moon Bay High Class Villa District to check in and see what kind of reward he could get.
He had a car now, so it was convenient for him to go anywhere.
Lin Fei started the car in excitement, his whole body trembling.
"Vroom..."
He hit the accelerator lightly, and the low roaring of the engine shook his eardrums.
All men loved this sound. It could make people thrilled for no reason.
Lin Fei was already over the moon for starting the first supercar in his life, but when he heard the low hum of the engine, a rush of blood shot to his head.
Lin Fei thought that he was not in a good condition to drive, so he got out of the car to calm himself down for a while. Then, he got back in and drove his brand new Ferrari 812 towards the gate of the Jinye Neighborhood.
The red Ferrari 812 was indeed too flamboyant. He received the attention of passers-by on the way to the entrance of the district.
"Hey, isn't that Fei?"
When Lin Fei passed by the small supermarket, the young shopkeeper saw Lin Fei in the driver's seat. She could not help frowning and muttering to herself.
"Hey, Fei..."
The shopkeeper quickly ran out of the supermarket and called out his name, but the guilty Lin Fei did not dare to stop. He drove the car straight to the entrance of the residential area.
Looking at the indescribably handsome car, the young shopkeeper laughed and said, "Looks like this kid really made a fortune. I have long felt that he's not a simple person. But I did not expect him to be such a huge surprise!"
As she gazed at the Ferrari driving far away, there was not the slightest bit of jealousy on her face. Her heart only contained blessings for him!
"Sir, stop the car!"
Lin Fei was stopped by the security guard at the entrance.
"What is it?"
Lin Fei stuck his head out.
"Hello, sir. You need to pay for parking here."
The security guard came over and politely addressed him.
"Oh, how much?"
Lin Fei didn't mind or feel offended.
"Fifty yuan!"
The security guard kept his head low. He didn't want to act rude in front of such a rich guy.
"What...!
"Fifty yuan...?"
"The car has only been parked for one night. Are you kidding me with such a high fee?"
Lin Fei had already taken out his phone and was about to pay when he heard the fee. His eyes widened as he stared at the security guard.
It wasn't that Lin Fei's reaction was exaggerated, but there was only twenty yuan in his cell phone. It wasn't enough!
If he was stopped by a security guard because of the parking fee of fifty yuan while driving a luxury sports car worth 5 million, now that would be a joke.
"Sir, this is an old neighborhood. The parking space is very short, so the parking fee is very expensive. Fifty yuan per night, I hope you can understand!"
It was probably because Lin Fei drove a good car, so the security guard was very respectful and did not dare to offend him at all.
"Oh, so that's how it is. If it's the resident of your neighborhood, how much does it cost to park the car for one night?"
Lin Fei couldn't flare up when he saw the security guard's good attitude. However, he accurately caught a crucial detail: the parking fee for an outsider was very expensive. That was why he quickly asked this question.
After he said this, even he himself felt a little embarrassed.
He drove a few million RMB supercar and now he still had to haggle over a few dozen yuan. He felt really f*cking embarrassed.
However, he had no other choice since his pocket didn't allow him to throw an attitude.
He only had 27.5 yuan in his account. If he didn't fight for it, he wouldn't be able to get out of this neighborhood.
Although he wasn't in a hurry, if he kept blocking the entrance, it would only make him lose face.
Probably because he did not expect someone driving a five million car to ask such a question, the security guard was left stunned. He looked at Lin Fei with a strange look in his eyes.
Then he patiently replied to Lin Fei, "For a resident, it would only cost twenty yuan a night!"
When Lin Fei heard that, he did not care about his vanity anymore. He quickly asked again, "What do you mean? Is it the same for a tenant?"
When the security guard heard that, the strange look in his eyes intensified.
But as the security guard of the neighborhood, it was his responsibility to serve the residents. It could even be said that they were his source of income.
Therefore, he patiently explained to Lin Fei, "The tenants pay the property rent, so naturally, they count as the residents of the neighborhood!"
Lin Fei let out a sigh of relief. Then, he said to the security guard, "I'm a tenant of the Jinye Neighborhood. I live on the fifth floor, apartment no. 2 of the 15th building. So now I only need to pay 20 yuan, right?"
The security guard was dumbfounded. He could not believe his ears at all. This was the first time he had met such a stingy person who drove a luxury supercar.
He now seriously suspected that this guy was a driver hired by a rich second generation. He secretly drove the sports car home to impress his girlfriend.
In addition, Lin Fei was wearing cheap clothes. This made him more certain of his own judgment.
"Yes, of course. But please show me your ID. I need to check your rental information."
The security guard forced a smile and remained polite, but his smile was uglier than crying.
Lin Fei cooperated and took out his ID card. The security guard took the card and went into the on-call room. Two minutes later, he came out.
After handing the ID card back to Lin Fei, the security guard's expression turned cold. It seemed that after Lin Fei's identity as the tenant had been confirmed, he was even more certain that he was just a driver who secretly drove a rich second-generation's sports car home. Hence, he no longer spoke so politely.
After Lin Fei received the ID card, he coldly said, "20 yuan!"
"Damn it, this is too practical. He changes color like a chameleon!"
Seeing the change in the attitude of the security guard, Lin Fei could not help but curse in his heart, but he was too lazy to argue with him.
"Thank you!"
Lin Fei didn't hesitate anymore. He picked up his phone and scanned the code to pay. Then, he drove the cool Ferrari 812 out of the neighborhood with a loud roar.
Seeing Lin Fei drive away, the security guard smiled at another colleague, shook his head, and said, "If you don't have money, why are you pretending to be a rich guy? This is the most stingy person I have ever seen who pretends to be a rich second generation!"
On the roadside, Lin Fei could not help but laugh when he saw that there was only 7.5 yuan left in his phone.
Just now, he almost couldn't get out of the neighborhood. If he wasn't smart enough, he would have embarrassed himself.
Lin Fei patted the ten high-priced property certificates on the passenger seat. He suddenly felt that he might be the poorest billionaire in Mo City.
