Super Rich by Doing as You Please

Meanwhile, after handing the car to Xiaoteng, Xu Yun headed back alone.

He looked at the two women. ’Have they already clashed, or has nothing happened yet?’

Xu Yun walked up, took Xino’s hand, and said, "Alright, Miss Lin, we’re heading out. We’ll leave you to it."

Lin Suiling asked, "Where are you going?"

"To buy a house."

Xu Yun turned and said, "Miss Lin, you’re a local. Why don’t you give us a recommendation? Something like one of these Suzhou Garden-style villas would be best."

Lin Suiling asked, puzzled, "Don’t you already have one right here?"

"This is my girlfriend’s family’s house, not mine."

Xu Yun smiled. "But after staying here for a day, I’ve found I quite like it. I’m planning to buy one for myself so I’ll have a place to stay the next time I visit."

"Yes, I know a place. It’s called Taohuayuan. They happen to have some villas like this that haven’t been sold yet."

Lin Suiling replied, "They’re fully furnished. You can move in right away."

She was talking about the houses in the villa complex near her own home.

’If I can just make him my neighbor, proximity will give me the upper hand!’

’So clever of me!’

"Alright, let’s go take a look."

So, Xu Yun and Xino got in the BMW and followed Lin Suiling’s Porsche Cayenne toward Taohuayuan.

In the car, Xino asked curiously, "How do you know that woman?"

"Buying a car."

Xu Yun answered, "She’s the one who sold me the sports car I just bought."

"And just from buying a car, she’s already hitting on you?"

Xino said, exasperated, "These women are so shameless."

"Can’t be helped. Who can blame them when I’m this charming?"

"Oh, stop flattering yourself."

Xino said, "When you have too many women around you, we’ll see if you can even handle them all!"

"You have a point. I’ll be more careful in the future."

"So, this woman... are you going to accept her or not?"

Xu Yun laughed. "I’ll listen to you; either way is fine. Besides, maybe she’s just after my body. She might just use me and dump me."

"Hahaha, that would be for the best. I don’t like her anyway."

The two of them chatted and laughed in the car, completely unlike other women who would be at each other’s throats, consumed by jealousy.

Ever since their heart-to-heart, Xino had come to terms with her position.

’No matter how many women Xu Yun finds in the future, I’m the one who can legally marry him. I’m the official wife, the empress. All the others are just concubines.’

’So I have to be magnanimous and not stoop to their level!’

Led by Lin Suiling, the two cars arrived at the entrance of the Taohuayuan sales center.

After parking, the three of them walked in together.

Xu Yun was in the middle, with the two women subconsciously walking on either side of him.

The moment a salesperson saw this formation, they knew who the main client was. They enthusiastically approached Xu Yun and asked, "Sir, are you here to look at villas?"

"Yes."

Lin Suiling added from the side, "We’d like to see a fully furnished garden villa."

"Of course."

The salesperson then inquired, "May I ask what size you’re looking for? We currently have villas for sale ranging from 300 to 1,200 square meters."

"How big do you want?" Lin Suiling turned and asked.

Xu Yun replied, "Show us the 1,200-square-meter one."

Both Lin Suiling and the salesperson trembled inwardly.

They never expected him to ask for one of the largest models right off the bat. Those houses cost a fortune—several hundred million!

The current owners of these properties were all major figures from the Forbes list.

But then Lin Suiling remembered the balance of over 200 million in Xu Yun’s account and felt relieved. ’He’s not just window shopping; he can actually afford it!’

"Right away, Mr. Xu."

The salesperson hadn’t expected such a huge potential sale. They weren’t even authorized to sell a property like this, so they went to get their manager.

When the manager heard they wanted to see the largest models, his heart couldn’t help but race.

He personally drove them through the tree-lined avenues of the community to the entrance of one of the villas.

After getting out of the car, the manager eagerly began his introduction right from the front gate.

"This is one of our large, single-family villas in Green City Taohuayuan. It’s called Lusong Residence.

It has a classic, south-facing main gate flanked by two large stone lions—very stately—to guard your home.

The building’s floor area is approximately 1,200 square meters, and the total lot size is nearly 6.2 mu—over a full acre. It could easily be passed down through generations as an ancestral estate."

Following the manager, the group opened the gate and walked inside.

"Now, what you see before you is our south-facing front courtyard. Nearly 160 species of rare and valuable flowers, plants, and trees have been planted throughout.

Moving forward, we come to a second gateway.

To the left is a pavilion, and before us is one of the larger Suzhou-style garden landscapes on the property.

Rock formations, small bridges over flowing water, ponds, willows, pavilions, and terraces—it has everything.

The very walkway beneath our feet is a ’flower-patterned pavement’ crafted by the old masters of the Xiangshan Gang...

In this courtyard, you can see we’ve planted many jujube trees, camellias, podocarpus pines, yews, and ginkgo trees.

Of course, the most stunning feature is this lake full of expensive koi.

And why do I call it a lake and not a pond? Because it’s truly massive.

It’s no exaggeration to say that when you stand on the bridge and toss in a handful of feed, you can witness the magnificent sight of ten thousand koi paying tribute.

All the main buildings you see in this front courtyard are the living room, dining room, and kitchen, as well as the quarters for the nanny, bodyguards, and gardeners.

The master’s living quarters are further back, separate from this area..."

And so it went. From the moment they entered until the end,

the manager led the three of them on a tour that took a full two hours to complete.

After seeing everything, Xu Yun had only one thought.

’What the hell is the difference between this and an ancient Prince Mansion?’

To put it dramatically, if the manager hadn’t been guiding him, he probably would have gotten lost coming in here by himself!

You might not have a concept of what 6.2 mu means just by hearing it, but after you’ve measured it with your own two feet, you realize—damn, this place is huge!

Xino and Lin Suiling, standing to the side, were also a bit stunned.

This courtyard had to be several times larger than their own homes!

’And bigger means more expensive!’

Sure enough, Xu Yun asked, "How much is this villa, roughly?"

"Around 280 million."

The manager replied, "The unfurnished house was about 200 million, and the renovations cost another 80 million or so."

Xino and Lin Suiling were stunned into silence.

Although they were both from wealthy families, they still secretly gasped when they heard the price.

But Xu Yun, upon hearing the price, thought about his account balance. ’I think I still have 320 million.’

’Buying this place, plus taxes... that should be enough, right?’

For the first time, he, Xu Yun, was worried he didn’t have enough money in his account.

’It really is true. It’s not that expensive things don’t exist in this world; I just never came across them before.’

Now, a single house could wipe out his bank balance in a second.

If he had come a few days earlier, he really wouldn’t have been able to afford it!

After stating the price, the manager saw that Xu Yun was silent and assumed he thought the house was too expensive and that buying it would be a struggle.

To be honest, who wouldn’t struggle to buy this house, aside from a handful of top-tier tycoons?

What’s more, the person in front of him was so young. ’The money for the house must be from his family.’

’He might be able to afford something in the tens of millions, but a house worth over a hundred million? Without his parents stepping in, it’s doubtful!’

However, the manager hadn’t really expected him to buy, or be able to afford, such a large estate from the beginning.

The main reason he brought them here was because the client had asked to see it. Not showing them would have been offensive.

The customer is always right.

If he couldn’t afford the big one, couldn’t he still afford a smaller one?

So, the manager immediately added, "President Xu, we also have a slightly smaller estate, over 300 square meters, that’s also very nice. How about I take you to see that one now?"

"No need. This one will do."

Xu Yun said calmly, "Let’s go. Take us back and get the purchase paperwork started."

Everyone was dumbfounded.

A 280-million-yuan estate, and he was buying it just like that!
