Chapter 28: A Very Fatal Loophole

  The next day was Saturday. Early in the morning, Zhang Sen received a call from Ma Pei, saying that he had prepared the materials Ling Ziyu needed for the exam and would send them over soon.

  Laughing, Zhang Sen hung up the phone and walked out of the bedroom, saying to Ling Ziwai who was preparing breakfast: "Weiwei, Pei Shao will be over soon, he said he's bringing you some materials."

  "Really?" Ling Ziwai asked excitedly, "Then I'll make breakfast for one more person."

  "Never mind, let's go have a big meal later and slaughter an English breakfast." Zhang Sen said with a smile.

  "Hmm? Hehe, but shouldn't that be expensive?" Ling Ziwu stopped and also smiled.

  "For us, it's not cheap, but for Pei Shao, it's like you can earn 10,000 yuan a month and then spend one yuan on a meal that's both economical and delicious. Do you think this meal is expensive?" Zhang Sen asked Ling Ziyu with a very serious expression.

  Ling Ziwei smiled again, but before she could respond, a sweet voice came from behind her: "Of course not, but Brother Asen, Brother Abei are really that rich? I don't think he looks like those wealthy people, with an arrogant and disdainful attitude."

  Ke'er pushed the wheelchair out of the room.

  Zhang Sen walked over, touched Ke'er's cute nose, and smiled: "Real rich people won't show off, their lives may be luxurious, but they pay more attention to taste and cultivation. Except for necessary socializing, they are generally low-key. Your Abai brother is one of those rich people with good taste, cultivation, and a low profile." As he spoke, he turned around Ke'er and pushed her towards the sofa.

  "Ha, it's not often that I get to hear words of praise from your mouth." Ma Pei chuckled as he walked in from outside.

  "Huh? So fast? And how did you get in?" Zhang Sen was taken aback.

  "Answer one: When I called you, I was parking downstairs in your building, so it was quick; Answer two: Your front door wasn't closed, just ajar, and I only needed to push it lightly to come in, absolutely no more force than what you use to push your wheelchair. Satisfied?" Ma Pei asked Zhang Sen with a serious expression, holding up two fingers.

  Zhang Sen also nodded seriously: "Very satisfied! Clear expression, complete content, language is not dragging, good, improved!"

  Ling Ziwei muttered to herself in a somewhat strange tone: "Why is the door open? Did I forget to lock it last night?"

  Zhang Sen smiled and said: "I won't, maybe I forgot after exercising and coming back, the door was locked when I went out."

  At this time, Ma Pei had already gone to the kitchen by himself. Soon after, he came back: "I'm here for a free meal, why hasn't Weiwei started cooking yet? I thought you were all done."

  "Oh, it's like this," Zhang Sen replied very seriously. "To celebrate Vivian sisters' first Sunday in G city, we plan to have a delicious English breakfast, and we've already thought about what to eat: smoked meat, fried eggs, fried mushrooms, fried tomatoes, grilled sausage, black pudding... hmm, plus some fried potato sticks and tomato sauce beans. Oh, and coffee and red tea, the main course is just barely enough with fried bread slices, of course, vegetable salad and fruit are also indispensable."

  Looking at Ma Pei's stunned expression, Zhang Sen held back his laughter and added another sentence: "What's wrong, Pei Shao? You look like you have a problem?"

  "Oh," Ma Pei, who had come back to his senses, now understood Zhang Sen's intention and asked in a daze, with great care: "Ah Sen, what's wrong? Aren't you going to marry your wife? Is life not going well?"

  "That's not it. It's precisely because I still want to marry a wife and live a life, so our plan has a very fatal flaw." Zhang Sen replied very seriously.

  "Oh, oh?" Ma Pei made a very puzzled expression, "What loophole is it? Have you found one? Can't you tell me about it? Maybe I can help you make up for this extremely fatal loophole."

  "Alright, I'll grant you this honor then." Zhang Sen magnanimously waved his hand at Ma Pei: "This extremely deadly loophole is that we lack someone to foot the bill! You don't have to be too grateful, our many brothers aren't doing it for nothing. For such a glorious and arduous task, with brothers like you around, I won't let others get away cheaply. As the saying goes, 'the fat water doesn't flow into another person's field'!"

  "Oh? Oh," Ma Pei made a look of sudden realization, and then with a face full of gratitude, he said to Zhang Sen with a sincere and fearful tone: "Thank you thank you, brothers are indeed brothers, you think so highly of me, such good things can happen to me, what did I do in my past life? I must have done something virtuous to meet such a good brother. Oh oh, no, it should be said that I accumulated some virtue in my past life to meet you, this good brother."

  Next to Ling Ziwei, the sisters were amused by their wonderful performance and couldn't stop laughing, filling the room with joy.

  After joking around for a bit, Ma Pei handed over next month's exam materials to Ling Ziwai and told her about the things she needed to pay attention to during the exam.

  "By the way, Vivian, I've found a house for you. It's in Xinyuan Community, not far from Arsen's home. The house belongs to one of our company's employees, who bought it but was sent to another city and hasn't lived there much. It's not big, two bedrooms and one living room, but it should be enough for the two sisters; it's on the first floor, so it'll be convenient for you to take Care out without having to go up and down stairs. As for the rent, he said that even if it's empty, it's still empty, and he doesn't expect to rely on it to make a living, so just give him some money according to your situation. You can move in anytime, and he's already given me the key. Just live there first, and when he gets back to the company, you can pay him then. What do you think?"

  "Really?" Ling Ziwai's eyes widened in surprise, "My goodness! Such a good thing, it's like manna from heaven!" She said, and then looked at Ma Pei with suspicion: "But does manna really fall from the sky?"

  "Of course, pies won't fall from the sky!" Zhang Sen chuckled and continued, "Since the homeowner is an employee of Pei Shao's company, he must have been forced to agree under Pei Shao's tyranny, right, Pei Shao?"

  "What did you say?" Ma Pei made a very angry face and stared at Zhang Sen, "Do I look like that kind of person?"

  "Not at all!" Zhang Sen replied calmly and seriously, "Not in the least, extremely not like, because you are that kind of person!"
