Yang Dong and the Others Arrive
When they reached the entrance, Bai Jie was there with a large group of staff to welcome the three of them. Ye Feng noticed there were a few more people than last time. After a moment's thought, he understood that Bai Jie had probably arranged for extra servers especially for this banquet.
"Welcome home, Mr. Ye. The banquet is almost ready and can begin whenever you wish," Bai Jie said respectfully.
"Sister Bai, our friends haven't arrived yet, so we'll have to wait a little longer." As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, he heard the system notification. It seemed Shen Haoyue had started making a move against the Fang Family.
[Congratulations, host. You have spent 76 billion Huaxia Currency and received 7.6 trillion Huaxia Currency in cashback. It has been deposited into your Supreme Black Card ending in 8888.] [Congratulations, host. Your cumulative cashback has reached 9 trillion Huaxia Currency. You have received the following additional rewards: one System Space, one bottle of Realm-Breaking Pills ×20, one bottle of Spirit Gathering Pills ×50, Antidote Pills ×5, one bottle of Marrow Cleansing Pills ×5, the complete Chaos Sword Art technique, intermediate defensive talismans ×10, intermediate attack talismans ×10, and top-grade spirit stones ×100. The items have been stored in the System Space.]
Holy crap! I'm about to take off! With these resources, not only could Ye Feng's strength improve by leaps and bounds, but he could also train up a few experts.
"System, can this System Space hold living things? And explain how to use these top-grade spirit stones."
[Host, at its current stage, the System Space cannot hold living things. It must first be upgraded with a space core. Spirit stones are divided into low-grade, mid-grade, high-grade, and top-grade spirit stones, with an exchange ratio of 1:100 between each grade. During cultivation, they can be absorbed directly and converted into spiritual power within the body.]
After ending his conversation with the system, Ye Feng led the two women into the villa.
"Brother, this place is so much more luxurious than East Lake Villas in Jin City, and there's even a swimming pool in the yard. It's so nice!" Ye Lin happily chirped around Ye Feng like a skylark.
"Brother Feng, is this one of those private kitchens from novels that make personalized meals?" Li Xiaona asked curiously.
"Didn't you hear Sister Bai welcome us home just now? I bought this place a while ago. Sister Bai is the housekeeper here. If either of you wants to come over and hang out, you can come anytime."
Ye Feng looked at Bai Jie and continued, "Sister Bai, where did you put the things Sun Ming sent over earlier?"
Bai Jie said respectfully, "Mr. Ye, they're in your study. I'll fetch them for you right away."
"No need, I'll go myself. By the way, a few cars will be delivered in the next few days. Please receive them. There's a Cayenne and a Mercedes-Benz among them; those are for you all to use for everyday travel."
With that, Ye Feng took Li Xiaona and Ye Lin to the study.
"Brother, you really bought this place? It's so luxurious! Oh, right, what about the gift you prepared for me? Where is it? Let me see it!"
Ye Feng walked over to the desk in the study, picked up a document envelope, opened it and looked inside, then handed it to Ye Lin.
"Brother, what is this?" Ye Lin asked in confusion.
"Why don't you open it and see for yourself?"
Ye Lin opened the envelope and found a bright red property ownership certificate lying quietly inside. She eagerly took it out and opened it, and her face immediately blossomed into a smile.
"Brother, you're the best! I love you so much! Hehe, now I, Ye Lin, am a little rich lady worth over a hundred million too! Hahaha!"
"Linlin, where's the apartment? Look how happy you are." Seeing how delighted Ye Lin was, Li Xiaona hurriedly asked.
"It's an apartment at Tomson Riviera, right upstairs from Brother's. Sister Xiaona, how about moving in with me? Otherwise I'll be so lonely on my own. Can you bear to leave your adorable little sister-in-law all alone in an empty apartment?"
Ye Feng suddenly realized he had picked up a rock only to drop it on his own foot. He had wanted to send this big third wheel away so he could spend some time alone with his girlfriend. But he had never expected this third wheel to take his precious cabbage away. How could he allow that?
"You little girl, are you trying to lure my girlfriend away? Looks like I'll have to reconsider whether I should give you this apartment."
"No, that's not it. Brother, you've misunderstood. What I meant was... Brother, I really can't make anything up. Tell me what I should say."
Seeing Ye Lin like this, Li Xiaona burst out laughing.
"I'd better keep living at school. If I lived off campus and my family found out, it wouldn't really look good."
"Xiaona, your family is here in Demon City too. See when it would be convenient; I'd like to pay Uncle and Auntie a visit," Ye Feng said seriously.
Li Xiaona was very excited. Ye Feng's words had warmed her heart. For him to say that meant he was serious about their relationship and respected her.
"Brother Feng, let me discuss it with my parents first, and then I'll give you an answer, okay?"
"Sure, whatever you say. I can't help liking you so much."
Just then, someone knocked on the study door. Ye Feng went over and opened it. It was Bai Jie.
"Mr. Ye, your friends have arrived."
Hearing that Yang Dong and the others had arrived, Ye Feng immediately went downstairs to greet them. Just as he reached the bottom of the stairs, he heard Wang Chao's voice.
"Fourth Brother, what kind of place did you find? I thought I'd come to the wrong place. A meal here must cost a fortune, even if we shamelessly beg for it, right? You're going to have to bleed money today!"
"Fourth Brother, this place is no ordinary spot. It doesn't look like a private kitchen to me. What's going on?"
Ye Feng looked at them and said, "Eldest Brother, you really know your stuff. This isn't a private kitchen. I bought it not long ago, so you could say this is my home. Make yourselves at home and dig in!"
Cheng Wen spoke up as well. "Fourth Brother, I just looked it up. The Cloud Villa District has the most exclusive luxury homes in Demon City. Every villa here costs more than 800 million Huaxia Currency. Did you get yourself a sugar mommy?"
That remark nearly choked Ye Feng to death. He was handsome, sure, but not to the point of being kept! He had earned it all bit by bit through his own hard work farming cashback!
"Alas, I originally planned to get along with you as an ordinary person, but all I got in return was distance. I'm done pretending. I'm a trillionaire, and I'm laying my cards on the table."
"Get lost, get lost, get lost! You even memorized the lines! Even if you were the leader of Huaxia, you'd still have to take good care of your Brother Chao today."
"Hahaha!" They all laughed together. Their friendship would not change because of differences in status.
After asking Bai Jie to start the banquet, Ye Feng took the three of them to the wine cellar on the second basement level.
"My three brothers, pick whatever you want to drink today! There's plenty!"
The three of them were dazzled by the dazzling array of famous Chinese and foreign liquors on the shelves. In the end, they chose Moutai. As Wang Chao put it, northern men weren't used to foreign liquor; Huaxia's own baijiu was still the best, with a real kick! If you didn't get drunk, could you even call it drinking?
