"If you really can't figure something out, then let's mortgage Zi Xuan's hotel. We can definitely get a loan of several tens of millions!"

"Once those two make the money back, they can pay off the debt!"

"Xu Fang, are you out of your mind?"

"We can live in any kind of house. Why should we burden the children?" Wei Wufeng had a speechless expression.

This woman is too much! She only cares about her own enjoyment and never considers the kind of pressure the kids will have to face!

"What's the big deal?"

"We're their elders, after all. It's their duty to provide for us. It's just buying a house, how is that a burden?" Xu Fang couldn't help but sneer, her face full of disdain.

"Mom, Dad..." Chen Zheng pushed the door open and walked in slowly.

Wei Wufeng put down his newspaper and stood up. "Isn't today supposed to be a day off? Why didn't Zi Xuan come back with you?"

Xu Fang glanced at the empty space behind Chen Zheng and also found it strange. They had agreed long ago that the family would eat together every Sunday. With Wei Zixuan not showing up, they were naturally suspicious.

"Zi Xuan went to Jiangnan on a business trip. The company had other matters for her to handle." Chen Zheng sighed slowly. Not wanting to worry them, he had to tell a little lie.

"Jiangnan?" Xu Fang's brow furrowed, finding it odd. "Chen Zheng, you didn't make some mistake and make our Zi Xuan leave in anger, did you?"

"Xu Fang, what on earth are you talking about?"

"How could Chen Zheng possibly do something like that?" Wei Wufeng immediately chided from the side. "That girl, honestly... even if it's a business trip, she should have let us know!"

"Dad, Zi Xuan just went to handle a business matter. She'll be back soon," Chen Zheng casually explained. Before they could ask more questions, he quickly changed the subject. "Just before I came in, I think I heard you talking about buying a house?"

"Yes, yes, yes... We were just about to discuss it with you!" Xu Fang immediately took over the conversation. "Your father and I are planning to settle down here and buy a house in Yunshan. We looked at a villa in the Jiangnan District today and took a liking to it!"

"That house is really excellent, just a bit pricey. You'll have to help us out with this!" Xu Fang said quite naturally, her arms crossed.

"Xu Fang, what kind of nonsense is that?"

"If we're buying a house, why should we use their money?"

"Besides, the villa prices in the Jiangnan District are outrageous. There's no need for something so extravagant. Why are you bringing this up in front of the kid again?" Wei Wufeng frowned deeply, looking rather displeased.

"Is thirty million expensive?" Xu Fang's eyes suddenly widened. "I looked at that house carefully. Both its feng shui and location are excellent. If we live there, it will bring good fortune to our descendants!"

"Anyway, I don't care. I have to live there!"

By the end, Xu Fang was throwing a tantrum like a child.

Of course, all her talk about the good of future generations was just an excuse. Xu Fang was simply captivated by the prime, luxurious location and its impeccable facilities. After one look, she never wanted to leave.

"What did you say?"

"Thirty million isn't expensive?"

"Do you really think making money is so easy?" Wei Wufeng's eyes went wide. This woman was being ridiculous. Did she even think before she spoke?

"What's the big deal? You received a ton of antiques for your last birthday. Just sell one of them and you could buy a house!" Xu Fang snorted, bringing up the gifts Wei Wufeng had received. She had never forgotten about those.

Wei Wufeng was suddenly at a loss for words...

He huffed and muttered to the side, "Those are treasures to be passed down, heirlooms for future generations. How could they possibly be sold?"

"What's the point of family heirlooms? They just sit there. If you ask me, they're just a pile of scrap metal!"

"You..."

Seeing the old couple about to argue again, Chen Zheng shook his head helplessly. "Alright, alright... It's just a villa in the Jiangnan District, right? I'll just give you one."

"Give us one?" Xu Fang's eyes went as wide as saucers.

Those were villas in the Jiangnan District! Each one was worth over thirty million. Even for a family with the Chen Family's financial power, coming up with that kind of cash at once would be a challenge.

"Of course. Mr. Yuan has already given that entire area to me. You can just pick whichever house you like," Chen Zheng explained.

Hearing this, the old couple was utterly dumbfounded. The Jiangnan District was the most luxurious area in Yunshan, and now it all belonged to Chen Zheng?

"It's really all yours? We can choose whichever one we want?" Xu Fang asked, visibly excited.

These were mansions worth tens of millions. If they could really pick any one they wanted, it would be absolutely incredible.

At that, Xu Fang immediately pulled out a brochure, showed Chen Zheng the house she had picked out earlier, and began explaining enthusiastically...

...

「At the same time, Wei Zixuan had already arrived in Jiangnan.」

In a coffee shop, two peerless beauties sat facing each other.

"Zi Xuan, did you run off to Jiangnan this time because your husband upset you?"

"I told you from the start not to lower your standards and marry that soldier, but you refused to listen to me. Do you finally get it now?"

"The gap between you two is just too big. How could you possibly live a life together?" Opposite Wei Zixuan, a woman sat with her arms crossed, shaking her head bitterly.

This woman was Wei Zixuan's best friend, Sun Yan.

Sun Yan had fair skin and was dressed luxuriously, but even her expensive attire couldn't hide a certain tacky aura she exuded.

The two had been sitting there for a long time. Although Wei Zixuan wouldn't say why she had suddenly come to Jiangnan, Sun Yan could easily tell there was a problem in her relationship. She had a vague idea about Wei Zixuan's husband, knowing only that he was some soldier with no real prospects.

To be honest, she looked down on such useless trash. They were all people who had returned from studying abroad; they were top-tier in terms of background, status, and appearance. Even marrying into a prestigious and wealthy family would have been no problem at all...
