This was on a completely different level than the Xinrong Ji Qi Sheng had eaten at before.

After settling the bill, Qi Sheng glanced at the 65,000 total.

He calmly took out his China Construction Bank Dragon Card and paid.

"I’ll have those two girls from yesterday come over to buy property later. Just handle it the way you normally would."

Having slept with her, Qi Sheng was naturally going to reward her.

The commission from the sale of two large flats at Huayue Mansion...

...was Qi Sheng’s reward for Xue Zhongyun.

"Thank you, darling. I’ll definitely get you the biggest discount possible—ten percent off!"

Xue Zhongyun was ecstatic. She hadn’t expected Qi Sheng to actually buy two large flats.

Based on the square footage and average price of the two flats, her commission alone would be 200,000.

"Just do your best. Get three parking spots ready, and calculate the property management fees. I’ll pay for five years upfront."

Since Qi Sheng had decided to boost Xue Zhongyun’s sales numbers, he didn’t care about a little extra money.

He had already bought luxury flats; of course, luxury cars would have to follow.

"Okay."

Xue Zhongyun smiled so widely her eyes crinkled into crescents.

If she weren’t still feeling a little tender, she would have loved for Qi Sheng to bully her fiercely one more time.

Huayue Mansion Sales Center.

For a top-tier luxury complex, the sales center was predictably quiet.

However, the clients who did come to view properties were all impeccably dressed.

After all, mansions worth tens of millions weren’t sold every day.

Ever since Kong Bin got to his desk that morning, he’d noticed that Xue Zhongyun had skipped her morning shift.

’She’s probably in bed with that Cullinan owner right now.’

To think of Xue Zhongyun’s fiery figure, forced to submit to some rich man.

A sharp pang of bitterness shot through Kong Bin’s heart.

’Fuck, why is it so hard for a loser like me to pick up the pieces?’

Technically, with his income, he shouldn’t be considered a loser.

But he was still worlds away from meeting the standards of a great beauty like Xue Zhongyun.

Xue Zhongyun’s ex-husband’s family had a net worth of over one hundred million.

Back then, a handbag she might buy on a whim cost as much as Kong Bin’s salary for one or two months.

But during the divorce, she was outmaneuvered by her shrewd mother-in-law and ex-husband.

She was left without a penny and had to walk away in disgrace.

If Xue Zhongyun hadn’t been lucky enough to meet Qi Sheng and Miduo...

...she probably would have gone down the wrong path, forced to sell her beauty to make a living.

It was because of that huge sale from Qi Sheng that Xue Zhongyun made her first real money.

Although it was only a little over a hundred thousand, for her, who was strapped for cash at the time, it was a much-needed lifeline.

After getting the job at Huayue Mansion, Xue Zhongyun came into contact with many wealthy clients.

A few even offered to become her sugar daddy, offering her tens of thousands a month in spending money.

But with that commission in her pocket, Xue Zhongyun had the confidence to turn them down.

And now, Qi Sheng was handing her two more huge deals.

She wouldn’t have to worry about money even if she didn’t make another sale for the next year.

"Sister Yun, you’re finally here."

Chen Jing saw Xue Zhongyun’s flushed, rosy complexion.

She instantly understood that her older colleague had truly landed the ultimate rich, handsome guy.

Even though she had expected it, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of envy toward Xue Zhongyun.

He was a man who drove a Cullinan, after all!

Even the scraps that fell from between his fingers would be more than enough for them to feast on.

"Jingjing, I brought you some afternoon tea. Make sure to have some later."

Xue Zhongyun handed an exquisitely packaged box to Chen Jing.

Qi Sheng had asked the restaurant’s kitchen to prepare it for them during their meal.

An afternoon tea set like this from the Junyue Hotel would cost at least several hundred yuan.

"Thanks, Sister Yun. I guess my advice as your strategist paid off."

Chen Jing accepted the afternoon tea from Xue Zhongyun, feeling she fully deserved it.

She opened it, and to her delight, immediately started snapping photos.

Then, she invited a few female colleagues she was close with to come and have a taste.

"Wow, this hazelnut chocolate cake is delicious! I just looked it up—this tiny slice costs 48 yuan! I’m not cut out for the life of the rich!"

"The strawberry napoleon and pistachio-cherry tart are amazing too! Just these few desserts add up to three or four hundred yuan. And with the milk tea... this one afternoon tea is enough to buy two tubes of lipstick."

"Look at Kong Bin, he’s practically green with envy. He should take a piss and look at his own reflection. That Cullinan owner is so handsome; does he really think he can compete?"

"Ugh, don’t gross me out. You’re making the desserts taste bad. Let’s just eat."

...

The group of saleswomen chattered away, their voices deliberately loud enough to be heard.

Kong Bin, of course, heard every single word.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford a several-hundred-yuan afternoon tea.

But being able to afford it and being willing to pay for it were two completely different things.

"Hey Brother Kong, how about you treat the guys to some afternoon tea? Watching Chen Jing and her friends eat is making us all starve."

A few of the male sales reps teased Kong Bin.

They were all a little tired of the way he’d been showing off his new Mercedes E300 to anyone who would listen.

"Piss off," Kong Bin snapped. "My car loan isn’t even paid off. I’ll treat you to my ass."

Kong Bin shot an irritated glare at his male colleagues, who were just enjoying the show.

’So what if he’s rich? It only matters if he’s actually willing to spend that money on a woman.’

He refused to believe that a guy that rich and handsome...

...would actually be serious about a divorced woman like Xue Zhongyun.

For a man of his station, Xue Zhongyun was out of his league.

But a man who drove a Cullinan shouldn’t be lacking for beautiful women.

’So, I just have to be patient.’

’Once the Cullinan owner gets bored of Xue Zhongyun, that’ll be my chance.’

But then Qi Sheng appeared at the sales center with the two beautiful girls from the day before, specifically requesting Xue Zhongyun to handle their purchase...

...and casually swiped for 22.57 million yuan on the POS machine, shattering Kong Bin’s fantasy to pieces.

Xue Zhongyun gazed at Qi Sheng, her eyes full of coquettish charm.

"Thank you, Mr. Qi, for your trust and support in Huayue Mansion. This is my card. You can contact me 24/7 for anything you need."

Xue Zhongyun deliberately stressed the words "anything you need," her meaning perfectly clear.

Meanwhile, Xu Ying and Pei Yinyin were too overwhelmed with excitement to calm down.

They were in no state to pay attention to a potential rival like Xue Zhongyun.

’I can’t believe I have a home in Chengdu now! A luxury flat in Huayue Mansion, no less!’

Xu Ying repeated this to herself over and over.

The immense shock had completely short-circuited her brain.

It was no exaggeration to say that out of all of Qi Sheng’s women, she had the lowest self-esteem.

In terms of looks, she couldn’t compare to Tan Hua or Pei Yinyin.

And when it came to figure, Miduo left her in the dust.

Even when Qi Sheng brought them to look at property...

...she had just assumed he was buying a place for Pei Yinyin.

But as they actually walked through the two large, luxurious flats...

...a woman’s instinct made her feel a pang of envy toward her best friend.

Of course, given Pei Yinyin’s personality, she would never refuse to let her stay over as much as she wanted.

But it would still be someone else’s home. Nothing could compare to the security of having a place of her own.

But then, today, just after they had finished putting on their makeup...

...Qi Sheng had dropped a bombshell of happiness on them.

A luxury flat in Huayue Mansion for each of them.

Her unit was slightly smaller, but still a spacious 283 square meters.

At 40,000 yuan per square meter, even with the incredible ten-percent discount Xue Zhongyun had secured, the price was still 10.18 million yuan.

Add to that a 400,000-yuan parking space, 300,000 in deed tax, and 120,000 for five years of property management fees...

...Qi Sheng had spent 11 million on her alone!

This kind of pampering, so far beyond her wildest dreams, made her affection score for Qi Sheng instantly shoot past 100.

[Xu Ying Affection +8, Current Affection: 100]

[Xu Ying’s Affection has reached 100. Add her to the protection list?]

[Pei Yinyin Affection +6, Current Affection: 100]

[Pei Yinyin’s Affection has reached 100. Add her to the protection list?]

Faced with a ten-million-yuan mansion, what girl wouldn’t, for at least a fleeting moment, be so moved that she’d want to stay with Qi Sheng for all eternity?

Perhaps that impulse only lasted for an instant.

But once the system detected it, that instant became an eternity.

Qi Sheng had confidence in both of them, not to mention in his own charm.

But who could guarantee there wouldn’t be any surprises down the line?

So, it was safer to add them both to the system’s protection list.

In front of all the staff at the Huayue Mansion sales center, Qi Sheng enjoyed the bliss of a man with a woman on each arm.

The male salespeople looked at him with envy and jealousy.

The female salespeople looked at him with worship and adoration.

Naturally, all the male salespeople dreamed of being an ultimate rich heir like Qi Sheng.

Able to buy their girlfriends multi-million-yuan mansions without batting an eye.

And the female salespeople dreamed of becoming Qi Sheng’s girlfriend.

Then they, too, could become owners in a top-tier luxury complex like Huayue Mansion.

They could enjoy the stunning views from a large luxury flat and the attentive service of a personal butler.

Amidst all this, only Chen Jing and Xue Zhongyun remained clear-headed.

Xue Zhongyun, having shared a night of passion with Qi Sheng, had a very good chance of securing a ticket aboard his "luxury cruise liner."

Chen Jing, on the other hand, hoped to use Xue Zhongyun as a springboard to latch onto the ultimate rich heir herself.

Ever since she graduated, she had been working at one luxury property development after another...

...with the express purpose of finding a rich, generous husband whom she also found attractive.

Now, she had finally found him.

A fervent glint flashed in Chen Jing’s eyes.

’As long as I maintain a good relationship with Xue Zhongyun...’

’...it might not be impossible for me to get a precious ticket of my own.’
