"Why are you asking so many questions? Do you want to go to places like that, too, and take the opportunity to experience life and broaden your horizons?" His mother, Huang Lanxin, narrowed her eyes and glared at him, looking most displeased.
It seemed that if he gave the wrong answer, she planned to make him sleep on the sofa that night.
"Ahem."
Seeing her expression, Xia Chuanliu instinctively cleared his throat and protested, "Honey, you know what kind of man I am. Honest and upright, pure of heart, and down-to-earth—that's me. Men like me are hard to find in this materialistic world. You could even call us an endangered species."
"I've never been to shameless places like Lichun Brothel or Heaven on Earth. I've never even heard of them, and you couldn't pay me to go. To be honest, how could those women compare to my own wife? Who knows what kind of diseases they might have?"
He put on a righteous expression.
Xia Ping's mouth twitched. If his father had never heard of those places, how could he possibly know what they were called? His father was a world-class liar.
But his mother, Huang Lanxin, seemed not to notice anything wrong with his story, so she let him off for now.
"Dad."
Xia Ping changed the subject. "There's something I need to tell you. I recently got a villa in Jiangnan District. It has beautiful surroundings and excellent security. Let's move there tomorrow."
"What?!"
Xia Chuanliu's eyes bulged as he stared at his son and shouted, "You got a villa in Jiangnan District? Do you even know what kind of place that is? It's the most upscale villa district in all of Tianshui City."
"Do you know what kind of people live there? They're either rich or powerful!"
