Jiang Chen had, after dealing with Yi Chen's matter, taken Xuan Long and the others back to the place where he and his mother lived.
Upon entering Jiang Chen's home, Xuan Long and the others exchanged glances, both revealing a hint of dissatisfaction in their eyes.
"Chen'er, who are these two...?" Shen Xiaoqin glanced at Xuan Long and the others, then looked at Jiang Chen with surprise.
Jiang Chen chuckled and said, "Mom, this is Xuan Long, and this is Yan Hu. They've been sent by Grandpa to help me!"
"Oh, the elder master sure is thoughtful!" Shen Xiaoqin said joyfully. To her, Elder Master Jiang sending help for Jiang Chen was true recognition of her son, and her heart swelled with immense joy.
After chatting with Jiang Chen for a while and having dinner, Shen Xiaoqin returned to her room. Xuan Long and the others seemed hesitant to speak while eating, and sensing they might have something to discuss away from her presence, she took the initiative and left.
"Young Master, how can you live in such a shabby house? This won't do! You are the Young Master of the Jiang Family, and only by living in the best house in Dingjing can your status be upheld!" Yan Hu said with a reassuring look.
Jiang Chen was startled for a moment and looked around his house. It wasn't too bad, in his opinion.
However, Jiang Chen didn't argue. He had kept a low profile for so long; personal discomfort was bearable, but it was wrong to make his mother, Jing Yi, Gong Lin, and others endure hardship. Now that he had such strength, he should allow those around him to live more comfortably. He realized he had been neglectful in this regard lately.
Nodding lightly, Jiang Chen calmly said, "Fine, let's look for a house tomorrow."
"Yes."
Xuan Long and the others, seeing Jiang Chen agree so readily, were pleased and nodded in response, then took their leave to start looking for suitable housing.
Jiang Chen returned to his room and idly started searching online for houses in Dingjing.
Hm?
When he typed in 'Dingjing housing' in the browser, an ad popped up. Jiang Chen thought it was some game advertisement and was about to close it, but a glance at the ad's content caught his attention.
'At the heart of Dingjing Dingyun Lake, a stand-alone villa boasts a stunning environment at the center of Dingyun Lake. Peer out the window to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Dingyun Lake. Interested friends, tomorrow at 2 PM in the banquet hall on the third floor of Shenghua Hotel for the auction. Let's not miss this opportunity!'
Accompanying the advertisement were pictures of the villa and photos of the surrounding environment. Jiang Chen examined them carefully, nodded lightly, and said, "I might take a look at this tomorrow!"
Early the next morning, Jiang Chen drove to Dingyun Lake and took a distant look at the villa in the center of the lake.
"Eh?!" Suddenly, Jiang Chen exclaimed softly, his eyebrows raised slightly as he felt a spontaneous surge of vital energy within his body. Although it was fleeting, his sharp senses caught it.
A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes, and Jiang Chen glanced again at the villa at the lake's center, then started walking towards it.
"As I thought!"
Not far from the villa, a look of pleasant surprise appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes.
As he walked forward, Jiang Chen carefully sensed the vital energy within his body. When he got close to the villa, the Cultivation Technique ran on its own again, and this time, it rotated for three breaths before stopping.
Jiang Chen tried to circulate the Cultivation Technique and found that practicing here allowed him to speed up the process. He immediately decided, "What a great place, I must secure it. This is it!"
After taking another look at the villa, Jiang Chen turned and walked back to his car while dialing Xuan Long's number, confirming that he needed to secure this villa.
...
Before 2 PM, the entrance of Shenghua Hotel had already seen numerous wealthy guests arrive.
"Haha, President Wu, you're here too!"
At that moment, at the hotel entrance, a man saw a middle-aged man getting off a Bentley and hurried over with a fawning smile plastered on his face.
"You are...?" President Wu looked at the man with surprise and a hint of confusion.
With a beaming smile, the man said, "President Wu, I'm Zhang Dafa, from Dafa Trading."
"Oh, President Zhang." A touch of disdain flashed in President Wu's eyes as he spoke in a flat tone.
However, as the two exchanged pleasantries, a thunderous roar sounded. A Rolls-Royce Phantom and a Knight XV drove into the open-air parking lot of Myth Hotel, with Jiang Chen and Xuan Long stepping out and heading toward the hotel entrance.
Because of the angle, only President Wu saw this scene; Zhang Dafa, whose attention was fully on President Wu, did not notice it.
Whose junior is this? Very arrogant indeed.
President Wu was taken aback, curiosity creeping into his mind. As Jiang Chen and his group approached the hotel entrance, President Wu stepped forward with the air of an elder and asked, "Which family's junior are you? How come I've never seen you before?"
Jiang Chen glanced at President Wu and, too lazy to bother, continued walking towards the hotel entrance.
"Hey! Kid, what's the matter with you? That's so rude!"
On the side, Zhang Dafa, sensing an opportunity to show off, quickly ran in front of Jiang Chen, blocking the three of them, and said pompously:
"Do you know who this is? This is Chairman Wu Jiande of Fengcheng Group, a noble in the upper echelons of Dingjing society. You, a mere youngster, dare to act all high and mighty with President Wu. Being asked a question by President Wu is your honor, and yet you dare to ignore him? You really don't recognize Mount Tai! Hurry up and apologize to President Wu! What an uncouth wild brat!"
Jiang Chen's expression turned slightly cold, his eyes chilling.
Slap!
A cold glint flashed in Yan Hu's eyes as he stepped forward, slapped Zhang Dafa across the face, picked him up with one hand, and barked, "If you want to be someone else's dog, that's your business, but how dare you use our Young Master? It seems you're tired of living!"
Zhang Dafa was stunned by the slap, unable to speak as he covered his face.
President Wu Jiande, on the other hand, was taken aback and then became furious, stepping forward to question, "How can you hit someone? That's too much!"
"It's best to beat away a dog that gets in the way; I don't think my brother here went too far at all," Jiang Chen said indifferently.
President Wu Jiande's face turned angry as he said sternly, "What's the matter with you, young man? Do you really think you can do whatever you want because your family has some power? Do you know who I am? Didn't you hear what President Zhang just said? You dare to talk to me like this? Not taking me seriously, you're far too arrogant!"
"You're too full of yourself. I heard what he said, but who are you, and why does it matter? Do you know who I am? Why should I take you seriously?" Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, looked at President Wu Jiande, and simply pushed him aside, striding through the hotel doors.
"You..."
President Wu Jiande wanted to say something more but was cut off as Xuan Long stepped forward, blocking him, and gave him a cold glance.
Meeting that icy gaze, a shock went through President Wu Jiande, and he swallowed his words.
