Zhao Yuan first turned to Lin Xue. "I bought a villa in the Cao Tang Peninsula District," he said. "The price was definitely high, but it's worth it. Once you see the house, you're going to love it."
Only then did he turn to ask Ying Chen, "Mr. Ying, I believe a man of your stature can surely see the value of that villa. What I don't understand is why you wouldn't move in yourself. Why sell it instead? You must know that the long-term benefits of living in that villa far outweigh what you'd gain from a single Elixir from me, right? So, is there a problem with the house?"
Hearing this, the store manager frantically shot Ying Chen a look, urging him to choose his words carefully.
But things took a turn completely opposite to what the store manager had hoped.
Ying Chen didn't deny it or make excuses. Instead, he admitted it frankly. "I knew I couldn't hide this from you, Mr. Zhao. You're right. There is indeed a problem with the villa!"
