I Will Guarantee You a Life of Comfort, With a Car and a House
Downstairs at the company, Zhang Yang sat in his Cullinan, burying his head in the sand and leaving the car door open to let in the perfume.
Goodness, several perfume scents in just one or two days, that's going too far.
Not long after, he saw Bei Wei running out of the office building, looking a little excited.
"Zhang Yang, I have good news to tell you."
She stepped lightly into the car and excitedly threw herself into Zhang Yang's arms.
"What's up?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile, holding the little girl in his arms.
"I signed two store agreements. Our Shudu Roasted Duck Magic City. How about that? Aren't you happy?" She put her arms around Zhang Yang's neck, nuzzled his nose against her, and smiled gently.
"Finally, we have a franchise store?" Zhang Yang was overjoyed.
The average franchise fee of 150,000 yuan per store was not enough to make him particularly happy.
However, the progress of the mission is genuinely good news.
When Magic City has ten franchise stores in Shanghai, he can get fifty experience points. There is also a random industry; if he has more than ten franchise stores, each store can bring him five experience points.
Upgrade to the next level, and earning 150,000 a day will be within reach.
How could he not be happy?
Bite!
The opening of the first franchise store in Magic City triggered a random reward event: double cashback on purchases by designated customers.
Specified object: Bei Wei
Cashback limit: 60 million
Upon receiving this task, Zhang Yang was completely stunned.
Double cashback on purchases is happening again, and this time it's for specific groups only – meaning only purchases made for Bei Wei will qualify for the cashback.
The cashback cap is a whopping 60 million, which means that you can spend a full 30 million on Bei Wei!
Thirty million!
After spending 30 million, his total cash on hand will exceed 40 million, and his cash flow will be stronger than ever before.
"A budget of 30 million could buy Bei Wei a house in Magic City." A thought suddenly popped into Zhang Yang's mind.
Moreover, this idea is growing stronger and stronger.
Considering how much effort Bei Wei has put in all this time, she deserves a good reward. Moreover, the system specifically named Bei Wei as the intended recipient this time, so there's even less hesitation.
A budget of 30 million is enough to ensure that Bei Wei will have no worries about food and clothing.
We could buy her a small apartment in Magic City for a couple of million yuan. It doesn't need to be too big; a two-bedroom apartment of about 100 square meters would be fine.
You could also get a car worth a million or two, for daily commuting and shopping.
And then give her hundreds of thousands of yuan in pocket money every now and then.
She drives a car worth hundreds of thousands and lives in a house worth over 20 million. She has no worries about food, clothing, or other necessities. She can travel whenever she wants to relax and shop whenever she wants. If she feels too idle, we can even open a coffee shop, bookstore, or flower shop for her in the future.
Making money or not doesn't matter; all she needs to do is enjoy the peaceful life.
This is all he can give Bei Wei right now.
Saying it's extremely wealthy and powerful is an exaggeration, but it's definitely a lifestyle that an ordinary person can only dream of, and one that they might not be able to achieve even after a lifetime of hard work.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Bei Wei looked up at Zhang Yang, who was staring blankly into his eyes, and asked with a smile, hooking her arm around his neck.
"I'm thinking about how to reward you," Zhang Yang said with a mysterious smile, snapping out of his reverie.
"I don't want a reward, I want you." Bei Wei lightly kissed Zhang Yang's cheek upon hearing this. "Haven't I been taking advantage of you these past few days, have I? Look at you, it's only been a few days, and I can't even tell how many scents are in your car anymore."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yang chuckled dryly, offering no explanation or comment, and then picked up Bei Wei and closed the car door.
It was a little after 3 p. m.
Blushing, Bei Wei got off the Cullinan and jogged into the office building with her legs tucked between her thighs.
Zhang Yang opened the car door, sat leisurely inside, and enjoyed the breeze.
People were coming and going outside, but he was thinking about buying a house.
Looks like I'll have to go see my old classmate again.
His first thought was naturally of his old classmate Pei Xiaoru, who worked as a real estate agent in Magic City.
Zhang Yang checked the time; it was only around four o'clock. Pei Xiaoru's real estate agency usually closed quite late, so without giving her prior notice, he drove straight to her shop.
··
At this moment, Anjia Real Estate Pudong Branch:
Pei Xiaoru, who had already secured the top sales position in the company this month, should have been riding high, but she had been somewhat absent-minded these past two days.
"Still thinking about that crush of yours?" Liu Fei, a colleague, asked from the side.
Pei Xiaoru blushed and didn't dare to speak.
"Let me ask you something," Liu Fei said with a grin. "Where did you and he go after he bought the house that day? You came back limping that night, did you sprain your ankle?"
"Huh? You noticed that too?" Pei Xiaoru was taken aback, and hesitated for a moment.
"I'm not blind!" Liu Fei exclaimed, her eyebrows dancing with excitement, and lowered her voice. "Could you tell me about it, you know, you guys... that..."
"You're asking this?!" Pei Xiaoru realized what was happening, and seeing her colleague listening intently, she quickly reached out to help.
The two were playfully joking around when suddenly a passionate and excited voice erupted from outside the door.
"Quickly, Mr. Zhang is here!"
"Come on, pour some tea!"
"Xiaoru, Pei Xiaoru! Mr. Zhang is here, come out quickly!"
As the commotion outside grew louder, Pei Xiaoru was momentarily stunned, then her face lit up with surprise as she stood up.
She hurried out and immediately spotted the tall figure approaching, surrounded by a large group of people.
"Zhang Yang..."
She stood there watching the handsome man walk towards her, and for some reason, the first line of Karen Mok's song "[Slowly Like You]" flashed through her mind:
The book always seems to describe evenings filled with unexpected joy...
Anyway, Zhang Yang's appearance this evening was quite a pleasant surprise.
"Pei Xiaoru." Zhang Yang looked at Pei Xiaoru, who was standing there dumbfounded, and found it a little funny. "Do you have time to help me with something?"
Meanwhile, the shop manager was busy serving tea and water, pulling out chairs, and giving Pei Xiaoru a meaningful look.
"Pei Xiaoru, please help Brother Zhang see if there's anything we can do to help."
"Oh... okay." Pei Xiaoru snapped out of her daze and hurriedly pulled Zhang Yang to sit down beside her, a little flustered. "Zhang Yang, please sit down."
"Okay, thank you." Zhang Yang sat down and told them about his desire to buy a house.
"Budget under 30 million, location must be good, area doesn't need to be too big, around 100 square meters, two or three bedrooms are fine... Oh right, are there any nicely renovated apartments that haven't been lived in much, and the owner is in a hurry to sell, so the renovation is practically free?"
"Huh?" Pei Xiaoru was taken aback, then gave an awkward smile. "It probably exists, but we probably won't run into it."
"Oh, I was just asking." Zhang Yang asked casually.
Such a huge leak, how easy is it to find?
A moment later, Pei Xiaoru sat in front of the computer, and Zhang Yang sat next to her.
Pei Xiaoru was browsing through listings while chatting quietly with Zhang Yang.
"Hey, Zhang Yang, you've already bought a house worth over 100 million, why are you thinking of buying a house worth 20 or 30 million?" Pei Xiaoru looked at Zhang Yang while searching for a house. "You're not going to live in it yourself, are you? Or are you giving it away?"
"Hmm... why are you asking so many questions?" Zhang Yang said casually.
"Huh? You're really giving it away?" Pei Xiaoru stared blankly at the handsome face in front of her, an unbelievable thought flashing through her mind. "You're not buying a house for your girlfriend, are you?"
"You guessed that?" Zhang Yang nodded.
"What?!" Pei Xiaoru blinked, first in shock, then with a sour feeling.
Buying property for his girlfriend for twenty or thirty million? Zhang Yang is really generous. Why doesn't she get to have such a good deal?
Fortunately, work is work. Despite her sour feelings, Pei Xiaoru still helped Zhang Yang filter out several properties.
"There are several pretty good apartments in Emerald Lake Phase III, Ruihong New Town is also an option if you're interested, and the apartments in Hapark Bund are also nice and very new..."
Pei Xiaoru explained in great detail, and Zhang Yang listened attentively.
"How about you show me everything?" Zhang Yang said after thinking for a moment.
"You want to see everything?" Pei Xiaoru rolled her eyes at Zhang Yang. "You didn't even bother to check it out. You're going to kill me with work."
"Is that not allowed?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile.
"Alright, if Master Zhang says so, why not?" Pei Xiaoru smiled and began making the contact.
She spent almost half an hour booking ten apartments.
Inside the shop, some people were looking at apartments, while others were leaving get off work. After some time, the streetlights outside came on, and the shop was brightly lit.
However, only Zhang Yang and Pei Xiaoru remained.
"Finally finished with the appointments! I reckon we'll be watching for two whole days!" Pei Xiaoru gently touched her lower abdomen under her white shirt. "I'm a little hungry."
"Come on, I'll treat you to a big meal." Zhang Yang waved his hand generously.
Despite saying they were going out for a big meal, Pei Xiaoru dragged Zhang Yang to a small restaurant outside her place.
Inside the lively little restaurant, the owner was busy cooking.
At the small square table, Pei Xiaoru opened a glass bottle of soda for Zhang Yang. The two of them each had a bottle, ordered two dishes, and chatted while eating.
"Zhang Yang, you're really good to your girlfriend. How could you bear to part with a house worth over 20 million?" Pei Xiaoru made no attempt to hide her surprise.
Zhang Yang smiled but didn't say anything.
This is inexplicable. He can casually give Bei Wei luxury handbags and hundreds of thousands of dollars without batting an eye, but he's not so extravagant as to casually give someone a house worth tens of millions.
I'm willing but unable; my financial resources aren't at that level yet!
This time, it was mainly the system's support that allowed him to act so generously, thanks to the double cashback on his spending.
"Your girlfriend must have saved the galaxy in her past life to have met you in this one," Pei Xiaoru sighed softly, her gaze towards Zhang Yang somewhat complicated.
"So, according to you, you must have saved the world at least in your past life." Zhang Yang looked at Pei Xiaoru's fair and slender hand, which was resting lightly on the table, and casually covered it with his own.
"How was the commission on that last order? Was it good? This order should have a decent commission too, right?"
Upon hearing this, Pei Xiaoru blushed immediately.
"Yes... there are quite a few."
Thinking about how inexplicably she felt sour today, and now that she's slowly coming to her senses, she suddenly feels like she might have been a bit too greedy.
Clearly, she had already received so much from Zhang Yang.
"Let me put it this way, if you ever need any help in the future, I'll be there for you right away. If you have any bags, clothes, or anything else you like, I can give them to you too," Zhang Yang said casually. "But, old classmate, you shouldn't overthink things."
Pei Xiaoru felt her thoughts exposed, her face burning hot, and she lowered her head, wishing she could disappear into the ground.
So embarrassing!!
Zhang Yang looked up at Pei Xiaoru's flushed face and patted her hand.
"Pei Xiaoru?"
"Hmm?" Pei Xiaoru lowered her head.
"When are we going shopping together? I saw a dress last time that I thought would suit you, but I can't remember if it was Chanel or Prada." Zhang Yang smiled as he looked at Pei Xiaoru.
"You can wear it and show it to me then, what do you think?"
"You really want to see?" Pei Xiaoru raised her head slightly, her expression unusually shy. "I have a few at home, or I can wear them for you to see later."
"This isn't a good idea, it's too late." Zhang Yang checked the time.
"Anyway... we still need to look at houses tomorrow, so stay here tonight. It'll be more convenient if we look at houses together tomorrow," Pei Xiaoru said, mustering her courage.
She looked up at Zhang Yang, her eyes filled with expectation.
"That's fine too." Zhang Yang thought for a moment and nodded.
Upon hearing this, Pei Xiaoru was immediately overjoyed.
In the stillness of the night, in the small one-bedroom apartment, Pei Xiaoru, her cheeks flushed under the lamplight, changed into several dresses for Zhang Yang to admire.
Zhang Yang leaned against the edge of the bed, admiring the view while feeling somewhat dazed.
No... this was his college classmate.
Imagine Pei Xiaoru a few years ago in college, with her long, flowing hair and cheerful, radiant personality. Then tell her about it one night, a few years later, in a room where it's just the two of them.
Pei Xiaoru would change him into long skirts, short skirts, and even miniskirts right in front of him...
Ah, life!
No wonder some people say, never lose faith, always be positive, and always be moved to tears!
Because you never know, one day in the future, fate might suddenly turn around and take you away.
"Is it pretty, Zhang Yang?" Pei Xiaoru's call brought Zhang Yang back to his senses.
Pei Xiaoru, who is usually quite poised and confident, was now appearing shy in front of him.
Zhang Yang stood up with a smile and effortlessly pulled her into his arms.
--
Early the next morning.
Pei Xiaoru specially chose a cool long dress to accompany Zhang Yang to look at houses.
It was a rare treat to go out with Zhang Yang, and even if it was just to look at houses together as a real estate agent, she didn't want to look like one. What girl wouldn't want to look her best, sitting in the passenger seat of Cullinan with a handsome guy next to her?
Seeing his old classmate's bright eyes and white teeth, Zhang Yang was happy to play along.
The two of them walked together, without any sense of being a client and a middleman.
"Our first stop today is Hapark Bund, then Ruihong New Town, and then..." Pei Xiaoru, sitting in the passenger seat, knew all about the properties we were going to see today, displaying remarkable professionalism.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Zhang Yang smiled and drove off.
Our two-day house-hunting trip officially begins now.
