Chapter 106: Chapter 10 Money Talks_2
"Why?" Sun Dasheng asked.
The other party’s behavior was very strange. What was her motive? To compensate on behalf of her hedonistic best friend?
"You have a very important secret of mine," she said. "If you ever tell my family, I’m done for. As long as we share a common secret that can’t be told, I can guarantee you won’t run your mouth in front of my family."
What strange logic. Is this how a rebellious girl’s mind works?
Before he could answer, Yang Xintian unbuckled his belt. Pressing him down onto the toilet, she knelt before him.
HISS!
It was indeed a sensation he had never experienced before.
「In the moving car.」
The two maintained a safe distance, as prim and proper as an uncle and his niece. He saw her safely home before heading back to his own place—Xiang Yiren’s cozy little nest. Once there, he let the driver, Da Yong, take a taxi home.
「After entering the house.」
The two women were on the sofa, leisurely applying face masks and gossiping. The coffee table in front of them was laden with shopping bags.
Looking at it now, the once cozy little nest suddenly felt rather cramped. With two women living here in a rented place, it was definitely time for a change.
The sound of the door opening startled them. Seeing their man had arrived, the two women happily tore off their face masks and rushed to the entryway. Each holding a slipper, they helped him change his shoes and take off his overcoat. Sun Dasheng simply spread his arms and let them fuss over him. As soon as he was home, he didn’t have to do a thing; everything was meticulously arranged for him. He was truly living the life of Riley.
After changing, he swept both women up into his arms, one on each powerful bicep. Laughing, he kissed one and then the other. "What kind of fairy-tale life am I living?"
The two women playfully tutted at him. Xiang Yiren wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "You reek of alcohol. Where have you been carousing? The water heater’s been on, so go take a good long bath. I’m not letting you on my bed smelling of booze."
Across from her, Jiang Ziyan stood in solidarity. "She’s right."
He set them down on the sofa and gave each of them a playful smack on the bottom. "I’m going to take a shower. Be good and wait for me in bed."
The fire he felt today couldn’t be quenched by that girl’s sharp tongue alone.
「Another joyous night.」
The lights in the bedroom didn’t go out until just before dawn. He ended up sleeping until noon the next day.
"You’re awake?"
When he opened his eyes, he was greeted by the sight of Jiang Ziyan’s flushed face.
"Just in time for lunch."
He tugged her into his arms for a tender embrace. "Your complexion looks so much better recently. Whose hard work is that, hmm?"
Jiang Ziyan shyly buried her head in his chest, mumbling and refusing to answer.
Sun Dasheng decided not to tease her anymore. "After lunch, you’re coming out with me."
"To do what?" Jiang Ziyan asked.
"You’ll see," he said, pinching her nose.
They got up, washed, and ate lunch before driving out. Without stopping, they headed straight for the villa district.
Zhong Liying had been waiting at the community entrance for a long time. Ever since acquiring this VIP client, her status at the agency had risen dramatically. Now, no one dared to openly sabotage her or give her a hard time. Her performance had even caught the attention of the Shanghai City district manager. Consequently, she felt a deep-seated gratitude toward Mr. Sun.
Beyond gratitude, she dared not think if there was something more. Although her close friend kept urging her to be more proactive, she remained hesitant.
The familiar Bentley pulled up. She straightened her clothes, smoothed her hair, and went forward with a smile to greet him. When another beautiful, unfamiliar woman stepped out of the car, she wasn’t surprised in the least.
He was great in every way, except he had too many women.
"Welcome, Mr. Sun!" Zhong Liying hurried to greet him. "I did some private inquiries about the villa you selected online. The family is planning to emigrate, so they’re in a hurry to sell. We should be able to negotiate the price down quite a bit."
"I appreciate your hard work."
The main reason he always came to her was that she was reliable and made the process effortless.
This villa was situated right in the center of the district and was the largest one there, covering a plot of over 400 square meters. It had two floors and a total built-up area of over 600 square meters. It was said that the renovations alone had cost over ten million yuan.
After touring the villa, Sun Dasheng was quite satisfied. He also liked the Italian-style decor, which saved him the considerable effort of redecorating. It was completely move-in ready.
"So? Do you like it?"
The woman beside him was utterly dazzled. She had never seen such a luxurious mansion in her entire life.
"If I said I didn’t, wouldn’t I be terribly ungrateful? This is my absolute dream house." For a moment, she found herself at a loss for words, unsure how to properly praise the magnificent villa.
"As long as you like it. I’m buying it for you girls to live in," Sun Dasheng said.
"Huh? I can live here too?" Jiang Ziyan could hardly believe her ears.
She had assumed the mansion was something he was buying for his future marriage, and she would have been grateful just to stay there occasionally.
"Of course. I’m buying it for my women to live in. Why would I leave it empty?" Sun Dasheng gave her bottom a light smack as a playful reprimand.
She delightedly rubbed her rear, clinging to his arm. "Thank you, Director Sun!"
She had figured out his kink. When he was in high spirits, calling him Director Sun excited him more than calling him Brother Sun.
Before long, the owners arrived. They were a couple in their sixties whose children were already abroad. They were selling the house to emigrate and enjoy their retirement years. The listed price for the house was 200,000 yuan per square meter. With an area of 600 square meters, the total price was 120,000,000 yuan. Of course, this was just the list price; the actual transaction price was typically only 80-90% of that. This was in Shanghai City, where the market was relatively stable. In other places, a 40-50% drop wouldn’t even be surprising.
Zhong Liying lived up to her reputation as a top agent. With her silver tongue, she managed to negotiate the price down to the lowest end of the range, 80%. The final price was 96,000,000 yuan. The couple only agreed to this price on the condition of a full, one-time payment.
The price wasn’t an issue. Back at the agency, they signed the contract, transferred the funds, and handled the paperwork. The house now belonged to Sun Dasheng, though the property title would take some time to be issued.
Seeing Zhong Liying effortlessly close another massive deal worth nearly a hundred million, her colleagues were green with envy. However, they knew being envious was useless. This major client was loyal to Zhong Liying alone. Others had tried every trick in the book but had failed to poach him.
"Liying, after closing this deal, you have to treat us to a feast!" someone joked.
Zhong Liying wasn’t bothered by the sour-grapes tone. "Tonight, Jinjiang Star. I’m treating everyone to dinner. I expect you all to be there."
"Wow! Jinjiang Star is a five-star hotel! The food there is so expensive. I saw a restaurant review on a short video app; I’ve always wanted to try their giant lobster."
"Liying, you’re so generous! We’ll definitely be there!"
With the promise of a feast, the complaints ceased, replaced by a chorus of flattery.
Pan Yanyan pulled her best friend aside secretively. "Why are you treating them to such a fancy meal? Got money to burn? Why didn’t you invite Mr. Sun to dinner?"
As college roommates and close friends who had joined the same agency after graduation, their bond was much stronger than that with others. Pan Yan Yan felt she could say anything to her.
"Yan Yan, you’re talking nonsense again. Mr. Sun is surrounded by women. What would I look like throwing myself at him?" Zhong Liying felt a twinge of unease. She didn’t quite know what her feelings for Sun Dasheng were, but they had certainly transcended a normal agent-client relationship. Otherwise, she wouldn’t always go to such great lengths to negotiate on his behalf, trying to save him money. Still, the sight of all the women around him always made her hesitate.
"Oh, come on! What does that matter? I’m telling you, all those other women combined are no match for you. Liying, you’re tall with long, gorgeous legs, and your pretty face could rival any of those celebrities on TV. If I had your ’assets,’ I’d have had Mr. Sun wrapped around my little finger long ago," Pan Yanyan said, frustrated with her friend’s lack of initiative.
