Chapter 30: Chapter 30 A New Phone for Her
Lu Wanwan carried her newly purchased phone and the credit card receipt out of the retail store and got back into the car.
“The phone is the latest version, as you mentioned. I let them choose the color randomly, since you said the color didn’t matter.”
As she spoke about the color, there was a subtle change in Lu Wanwan’s tone.
“The price was sixteen thousand eight hundred. I saw something about a limited edition released this month. Although I don’t know exactly what the difference is, I thought you might want it. It’s a few thousand more expensive than the regular version…”
Gu Annan cut her off, taking it from her, “As long as it’s purchased, that’s fine.”
Lu Wanwan let out a sigh of relief, turned her face to the side, and carefully observed him.
His expression hadn’t changed much from start to finish, it seemed he had no objections to the rose gold color.
He glanced at the signing area of the payment slip before casually tossing it into the compartment of the car.
Then he opened the phone box, took out the phone and its accessories, and threw the box directly into the garbage bin outside the window.
While holding the phone, his fingers paused. He suddenly stretched toward Lu Wanwan, “Give me the phone.”
Lu Wanwan hesitated, then handed over her knockoff phone.
Her phone had crashed, but a restart would have fixed it.
However, she was relying on the fact that maybe Gu Annan didn’t know, planning to use WeChat for a few more hours and delete it later.
Now that Gu Annan was asking for her phone, she thought he wanted to delete WeChat from it.
In fact, she really wanted to add that she used WeChat for legitimate things, to discuss legitimate matters, and wondered if it could not be deleted…
“Hey, what are you doing…”
Lu Wanwan looked at Gu Annan in surprise as he took the SIM card out of her phone and directly inserted it into her newly bought phone.
He moved very quickly. Once the card was swapped, he turned on the phone and started typing rapidly on it.
While Lu Wanwan thought he was going to use her card for something, he had already finished typing.
Then her knockoff phone was thrown out…
Before she could protest, the phone she had just spent ten to twenty thousand on was handed to her face, “My number is already saved in it. As we agreed during this period, I’ll be at your call.”
Lu Wanwan received it nervously, her brows furrowed as she looked up, “This is fine, but my phone…”
Her biggest concern was that the cost of this phone would be deducted from the remaining one hundred ninety thousand.
After all, he had just as easily declared that she would pay the penalty and bear her own medical expenses.
“Sometimes you might need to act as my assistant briefly.” Gu Annan turned his head, restarting the car, his tone calm, “I don’t want others to think I mistreat my employees.”
Lu Wanwan felt slightly disappointed upon hearing this explanation.
If it were just a gift of a phone to her, she could have immediately resold it. A limited edition device could easily make up at least ten thousand of the deducted amount as a nearly new second-hand device.
What she lacked was ultimately two hundred thousand, and with her current salary and time, saving another ten thousand was not easy.
The ten to twenty thousand worth phone felt heavy in her hand as she carefully placed it in her bag.
Before the car drove off, a pretty face suddenly appeared at the window of the driver’s side, an expression of surprise on her face, “Brother Annan, is it really you!”
Lu Wanwan followed his gaze, and as soon as she saw that face, she almost broke into a sweat.
Wasn’t this Ji Jiayi, the one from the photos exposed by Bai Lingyun not long ago?
