"Old Zhu, really, why did you only just arrive?"

Wu Yan quickly walked up, wrapped her arms around the chubby middle-aged man's arm, and said petulantly.

"Haha, I just went to see Manager Cui. He gave us a discount of a hundred thousand. Here, this is Manager Cui Wen."

Old Zhu said with a smile, introducing the suit-wearing sales manager next to him to Wu Yan.

"Hello, Manager Cui, thank you so much for taking care of my Old Zhu."

Wu Yan said with a sweet smile.

"You're welcome. Old Zhu and I go way back."

Cui Wen replied with a smile.

"By the way, Old Zhu, I just happened to meet my college classmates. They're here to buy a house too. Do you think you could ask Manager Cui to give them some consideration? After all, they're just young graduates with not much money."

Wu Yan had a hint of pride on her face as she spoke, clinging to Old Zhu.

Her voice was surprisingly loud, catching the attention of many people, and Wu Yan relished the attention.

"Friends of Old Zhu are my friends, and I'll certainly give them some extra consideration."

Cui Wen nodded with a smile.

Feeling bolstered by Cui Wen's words, Old Zhu straightened his belly proudly, just then spotting Qin Yang and Ruan Xinxue.

"Is it you two?!"

Old Zhu's expression changed slightly.

"Zhu Facai?"

Qin Yang looked at Old Zhu, whom Wu Yan referred to, with a smile; it was none other than the Zhu Facai they had met at the Bright Fish Harbor the other day.

"You know each other?"

Wu Yan was slightly surprised.

"How could we not know? We met when I was dining with Young Master Kang Wuchi at the restaurant. I even gifted them eleven bottles of '82 Lafite."

Zhu Facai let out a slight snort from his nose, feeling a bit bitter about being scammed tens of thousands that day.

"My Old Zhu is really generous."

Wu Yan's face carried a hint of smugness as she glanced at Ruan Xinxue, thinking, what's the use of being a campus belle? Once in society, you aren't doing better than me.

"Manager Cui, please do give my classmate a discount later."

Wu Yan said politely to Cui Wen, her eyes shifting slightly.

"No problem, Old Zhu, and these two classmates, let me take you to look at the properties first. Do you want to see the villas first or the residential apartments?"

Cui Wen smiled as he spoke to the group.

Hearing this, Wu Yan felt somewhat tempted. She originally didn't plan to buy a villa, as even the smallest villa was overpriced, and she didn't dare to hope that this deadbeat guy would buy her one. Still, she could go and take a look.

"Old Zhu, why don't we look at the villas first? The property prices keep increasing. Buying a small villa might be a good choice."

Wu Yan coquettishly shook Zhu Facai's arm.

"Alright then, let's check out the villa area first."

Zhu Facai puffed up his belly, unwilling to lose face in front of so many people, and agreed with a smile.

"Let's go, let's have a look."

Seeing Ruan Xinxue's slightly helpless expression, Qin Yang said with a smile.

Led by Cui Wen, they entered the Celestial Lake Villa District.

Within the villa area, greenery enveloped the surroundings, creating a serene environment, with a river flowing through the district.

"The environment here is really nice."

Ruan Xinxue's eyes brightened as she spoke with a smile.

Qin Yang nodded, and the group entered a standalone small villa.

"Old Zhu, why don't we just buy this small villa? Look at how beautiful the scenery is here; living here would be comfortable."

Wu Yan shook Zhu Facai's arm, her eyes accidentally glancing at Ruan Xinxue and Qin Yang, feeling a sense of superiority; those two probably wouldn't even dare dream of this, people really can't be compared like this.

"This small villa is priced at 8.5 million, with a built-up area of 415 square meters, 4 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 4 bathrooms, and it's south-north facing..."

Cui Wen introduced with a smile, knowing he'd earn a significant commission if he managed to sell a villa.

"Let's keep looking."

Zhu Facai's face stiffened slightly; 8.5 million was indeed all the money he had worked for so laboriously until now. It certainly wasn't something he wanted to spend entirely on Wu Yan, who was merely a small mistress.

"Old Zhu, now is actually a good time to buy a small villa. Property prices keep rising, and if you buy at 8.5 million now, in a year or two, it'll definitely be worth over ten million."

Cui Wen advised.

"Exactly, Old Zhu, after seeing this small villa, looking back at those 150-square-meter apartments just doesn't seem interesting, does it?"

Wu Yan playfully pulled Zhu Facai's arm.

Qin Yang shuddered; Wu Yan's coquettish tone was enough to give anyone goosebumps.

"Let's move on and take a look ahead."

Qin Yang said to Ruan Xinxue, and the two of them walked toward the larger villas near Celestial Lake.

"Let's check some more."

Zhu Facai quickly added, eager to put up a front, but knowing that over 8 million was no small sum.

"These large villas near Celestial Lake all come with separate swimming pools and small golf courses, offering a view of the beautiful Celestial Lake right outside your door."

Cui Wen was aware that none of them had the financial capacity to purchase such a standalone villa, so he did not provide detailed information.

"What are the prices for these two villas in front of us?"

Qin Yang asked, looking at two large villas with expansive grounds before him.

"These two are our model homes, interiors have been decorated by top European design teams, ready to move in, priced at 88 million."

Cui Wen glanced at Qin Yang, not going into further detail, clearly seeing Qin Yang's question as mere pretense.

"Alright, show me around inside."

Qin Yang said.

"Hmm?"

Cui Wen hesitated before replying, "Sorry, such large standalone villas require prospective buyers to have purchase intentions and demonstrate payment capability before viewing."

Some villa sales offices have such policies, otherwise, if every visitor is shown around, the sales staff would just become tour guides.

"I'm here to buy."

Qin Yang frowned slightly.

Hearing this, Cui Wen cast a skeptical look at Qin Yang. This kid really knew how to put on airs; clearly, he didn't take Qin Yang's words seriously.

Wu Yan sneered, thinking that he was talking big and not seeing reality, as if he could afford an over 80 million villa. Although she couldn't afford it either, she wanted to take a look inside.

"To view the property, you'd need to register your financial details to prove you have the purchasing power, then I can show you around."

Cui Wen said with indifference, displaying a business-like attitude.

"Old Cui, why don't you take me and Yanyan in to take a look? We won't mess up anything inside."

Zhu Facai glanced at Qin Yang and Ruan Xinxue, raising an eyebrow, believing that Cui Wen would still value his face.

"Alright then, you two wait outside, I'll take Old Zhu and this young lady for a look."

Cui Wen nodded, pulling out a set of keys.

"Ah, seems like my Old Zhu really pulls weight, Ruan Xinxue, you and this handsome guy just wait outside for a bit, we'll be back shortly."

Wu Yan's face lit up with a hint of joy and triumph as she glanced at Ruan Xinxue, feeling quite proud of being able to stand slightly above her former campus belle.
