Chapter 147 - Chapter 146 Christmas Eve, Father Li and Annie's warning

If nothing unexpected happens, this wave should gain quite a few fans. After all, there are many netizens in this world who like to watch rich second-generation individuals flaunt their wealth online.

Unlike other rich second-generation individuals who flaunt brand-name clothing, luxury cars, and villas, or at a higher level, yachts, private jets, and high-society parties, Fly directly flaunts high technology.

The level is not the same.

Taylor also edited a piece of text on her account: "Came home with Hani for Christmas Eve, so happy, but it's inexplicably cold at home..."

The pictures used were basically identical to Fly's. Anyone could see that these two coordinated their posts.

The car drove for about five minutes, and Fly saw the four-story detached villa at the end of the avenue; that was the main villa of the manor.

Right at the villa's entrance, a blonde woman in a custom-made evening gown, with light makeup on her face, around 40 years old, was looking out at the arriving car.

"Mom, it's so cold, why are you standing outside? Hurry and go in."

Fly saw his Mom standing at the villa entrance from afar. After getting out of the car, he rushed to Annie's side in a few strides and gave her a big hug.

Unexpectedly, Annie didn't give her son a good look. She deliberately showed a look of disdain on her face, patted Fly's arm, and said,

"Alright, alright, you're a grown man, why are you still hugging? Immature."

As soon as she finished speaking, Annie looked at Taylor beside her, and a motherly look of affection appeared on her face. "TayTay, come here and let Mom give you a hug. Mom missed you so much..."

Taylor secretly glanced at Fly with her cat-like eyes, her delicate little nose twitching up and down, looking utterly adorable.

"Mom, I missed you too. Long time no see..."

"Yes, it has been a long time. I haven't seen you since I saw you promoting your new album on the family's TV station last time."

Seeing his Mom and daughter-in-law leave him aside, a black line couldn't help but appear on Fly's face.

Seriously, I'm your son, right!

And Taylor, if it weren't for me, would you be calling Annie "Mom"?

Shaking his head helplessly, Fly couldn't be bothered with this "touching" mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pair and entered the villa first.

The Swift family, who arrived later, also warmly greeted Annie.

Even the brat Justin received a good look from Annie.

Only Fly, the flesh that fell from Annie's body, was directly disliked by Annie.

However, Fly also knew his Mom's temperament and guessed that she was angry because he hadn't visited her for a long time.

Women, even mature middle-aged women with social status, sometimes like to throw little tantrums, and Fly could understand this.

Walking into the living room, Fly immediately spotted a Chinese man who was busy running around.

As soon as the man heard footsteps behind him, he didn't even turn his head and immediately called out, "Brat, hurry up and help! Don't you dare be lazy!"

Fly smiled bitterly, shrugged his shoulders, and said lazily, "Dad, your son just got home. Can't you let me rest for a while?"

"Rest my foot! Do you really think I don't know you've been resting for the past few days? Hurry up, don't dilly-dally like a woman..."

Finally, under Dad Li's repeated urging, Fly could only help him out.

If Dad Li's subordinates saw him doing housework at home, they would probably be stunned.

After all, for a big shot like Dad Li, who has a strong personality, tough methods, and is decisive in his actions, to be doing housework at home like a housewife, the contrast is simply too great.

However, Fly knew very well that his Dad always had two faces, one at home and one outside.

He rarely acted tough in front of his Mom and himself.

Even though he often sniped at him and mocked him with words, it was basically all in jest, and Fly didn't take it to heart.

After Taylor, Annie, and the Swift family came in, the two families quickly got to the point.

Flames burned in the super large fireplace, which was seven or eight meters high, and the adjacent Christmas tree was hung with gifts.

Dad Li even got a few reindeer to enhance the festive atmosphere.

Seeing this, Fly suddenly felt that he was usually too frugal.

Compared to his Dad and Mom's spending, he was simply living a simple life...

Fly was already used to celebrating this kind of holiday. It was basically just following the routine.

Dad Li and Annie gave Fly and Taylor blessings at the dinner table and even gave them gifts.

Hmm... I didn't expect to receive gifts. It seems Dad and Mom still have a conscience.

Fly had even prepared for receiving nothing.

After the Christmas Eve family dinner ended, Fly and Taylor were called by Dad Li and Annie to chat for a bit.

During the conversation, Annie reminded the young couple, "Son, TayTay, Allen told me about you investigating Oprah. I'll give you a heads-up, stay away from her."

"Neither she nor Diddy, who is colluding with her, will have a good life."

"You should cut ties with them as much as possible, and don't even maintain superficial contact. It's okay to become enemies in public."

Hearing this, Fly couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Because he remembered that Diddy was officially reported in his previous life in 2024!

It's not even 2011 yet, so Diddy should theoretically be able to live a carefree life for thirteen more years.

Why does it sound like his Mom means that Diddy is about to be finished?

As if sensing her son's confusion, Annie glanced at Dad Li beside her and explained, "Your Dad is about to deal with the capital behind Diddy. When that happens, no one will protect him, and he will definitely go down with them."

Dad Li, upon hearing this, looked indifferent, neither confirming nor denying it.

However, Fly and Taylor both believed Annie's words.

After all, no matter how high Diddy's status in the entertainment industry is or how impressive he is, he is not on the same level as Dad Li.

If Dad Li really intends to deal with the capital behind him, it's hard to say what will happen to that capital.

But Diddy will definitely be in big trouble.

A small fry like him will truly be swept away by even the slightest ripple in the battle between big shots.

"Understood, don't worry, Mom, I've already told Taylor that we won't have any contact with people who do shady things in private."

"Yes, Mom, I listen to Fly, and I will definitely not let you and Dad worry," Taylor added at the appropriate time.

Annie nodded. She had a good understanding of her son and daughter-in-law's personalities.

They wouldn't touch many things, and this was not in vain of her usual teachings.

When it was time to rest at night, after Fly and Taylor had washed up, they went into Fly's bedroom on the third floor together.

Just like Taylor's bedroom at her home in Nashville.

At Lis Manor, the young couple stayed in the bedroom where Fly had lived since childhood.

The entire bedroom area was about two hundred square meters, larger than the total area of Fly's house in his previous life.

Lying on the soft sofa in the gaming area, Fly took out his phone and checked the post he had just made.

With just one glance, Fly felt like he was about to take off.

It had only been a little over three hours since the post was published, but there were already 100,000+ comments on Twitter, along with 800,000 likes and 40,000 retweets.

The top trending topics on Instagram and Facebook were also dominated by his keywords.

As for Weibo, the East Asia social media platform, although the traffic was temporarily not as high as in the United States, it also reached the top of the trending topics for this time period.

#LiYufeiAndMeiMeiGoHomeForChristmas#

#HomeOfWorldRichPeople#

#HowTrulyRichPeopleSpendMoney#

#...#

Seeing these trending keywords, Fly immediately felt that his popularity in East Asia had reached a certain level.

It's important to note that he didn't pay for these trending topics; they genuinely got there based on merit.

And the content of the trending topic below these few trending topics made Fly almost laugh out loud.

#WangBanbiReleasesNewSong#

Heaven knows that when Fly saw the trending topic of Wang Banbi releasing a new song, which was mocked as a meme in his previous life, he couldn't help but crack up.

In his previous life, he was just a bystander and felt that Wang Banbi was truly cursed. Every time he released a new song, it would coincide with an epic hot news event and then be pushed to the second spot on the trending list.

In this life, he directly became the person who pushed Wang Banbi's new song release down the trending list, and he suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu.

'So this is how it feels to push others down!'.

Then Fly looked at the comment section, and a few comments with the most likes caught his eye.

[Wow, is this the life of the rich? I'm so envious, your life is my dream!!!]

[I'm really envious of Fly. He has a super rich Dad and a super capable girlfriend. He can rely on his parents and live off his girlfriend. Awesome!]

[Brother Fei, I'm an orphan, I don't have a Dad or Mom. Can I recognize your parents as my parents? I'm willing to be your younger brother, please, please!!!]

[Upstairs, your Dad and Mom know you're cursing them like this? If they do, I'll take your last name if they don't break your legs.]

[Holy cow, didn't you all notice the high technology in Fly's house? What kind of thing can control the weather and temperature? It's too outrageous. If you didn't know better, you'd think Red Alert had crossed into the real world.]

[I checked, Fly's Dad seems to be researching ecological and meteorological technology and even cooperates with NASA. Awesome!!!]

[Indeed, the lives of truly rich people in this world are beyond our imagination. I hope Brother Fei can post more about his life in the future. Poor folks like us can't experience it in reality, so we can only enjoy it virtually on the internet.]

[...]

After reading through, the comments were basically friendly, and not many people were scolding him for flaunting his wealth. Seeing this, Fly had a good idea.

It seems this path is completely viable, and I can do more of this in the future!
