----------
Jiangdu Scenic Garden also had a night shift, not for sales, but the property managent operated a 24-hour reception dedicated to serving the hoowners. Moreover, since Gong Jiu was one of the investors, a simple phone call was enough to have soone waiting attentively in front of the brightly-lit villas of Jiangdu Scenic Garden.
Only...
The awaiting manager, upon seeing the nurous holes and shattered ss of the Maserati, could tell that the car had barely managed to make it to this point, where it promptly died as soon as it ca to a stop.
Shocked and dumbfounded!
The security and service personnel behind were just as stunned.
What the hell, even car accidents don’t end up like this, right? Is this a movie scene? Could it explode next?
Gong Jiu got out of the car, followed by Sui Yi, who also helped the drunk woman out of the vehicle.
Gong Jiu had just hung up the phone with Gen Fengsha, asking him to bring over a new car and to bring a doctor with him...
Then, she casually tossed the car keys to the manager.
"Don’t ask anything. Soone will co to tow this car away for repairs soon. Now, activate the service system for villa number 13 in Mid-Mountain Villa, the owner is moving in... bring a car... and take us up there!"
Gong Jiu gave a burst of instructions and soon after, she took a residence card and other accessories provided by the manager and got into the patrol car of the property company that toured around Yujiang Mountain Villas.
In just over ten minutes, they arrived at residence number 13. It was deep into the night, and after just having survived an assassination attempt, Sui Yi wasn’t in the mood to pay attention to the delicacies of the place but simply used the residence card to swipe open the main entrance.
He passed straight through the yard and entered the villa.
Upon opening the door, Sui Yi took a quick glance around.
The first impression was that the villa was two to three tis larger than the one in the Bright Moon Community.
Only, the renovation and furnishings seed too high-end and overly complete...
Moreover, the heating ca on as soon as they walked in.
"Exhausted!" Gong Jiu directly flung the drunk woman onto the central sofa as if tossing her own handbag...
She twisted her waist to go to the liquor cabinet, took out a bottle of wine, poured a glass for herself and one for Sui Yi, and said, "How about it, satisfied?"
Her tone was quite smug.
She clearly wanted praise.
"I don’t drink, thank you. Did you have this place renovated?" Sui Yi set the wine down on the table, walked up to the side of the liquor cabinet, pressed the button of the wall icebox, and glanced over the dazzling array of food... they had everything to eat and drink.
If the services of Jiangdu Scenic Garden were this impressive, Sui Yi would be more than happy to give them a thumbs up.
He casually took a bottle and closed the cabinet door.
The problem was, this obviously was soone exploiting their power for personal gain...
And so of the tastes... leaned more towards that person’s nature.
"Can you not be so tacky? Drinking milk! And it’s even Want Want milk!" Gong Jiu saw Sui Yi take out a bottle of Want Want milk and couldn’t help but tease bluntly.
"Is that a problem?" Sui Yi moistened his throat, sat down on the sofa, and leisurely started watching Gong Jiu.
"So, how much did you spend?"
Gong Jiu bristled, rolling her eyes. "Can you not be so crude! What’s our relationship? Do you really need to repay ?"
"I didn’t say I was going to repay the money. You’re overthinking," Sui Yi replied.
"...."
A deadpan face! An icy hole! One day, you’ll go to Hell!
Gong Jiu muttered under her breath and pouted, "Anyway, the previous decorations were too trashy, not fitting my glamorous style, so I had soone redo it. Look, doesn’t it give you a sense of instant grandeur...?"
Gong Jiu drifted around the vast living room like a colorful butterfly... sipping her wine and humming a peasant dance tune with a rustic twang.
Following where she had floated by, Sui Yi also took the opportunity to gauge his new residence.
Of course, the villa was large—after all, it was a luxury ho worth more than twenty million, covering nearly one thousand to two thousand square ters. Its overall style leaned towards European-Arican, with a large fireplace embedded into the wall, grand chandeliers, an oval-shaped central fabric sofa, a luxurious mahogany liquor cabinet, a huge Celadon vase, wall paintings... (Sigh, I’m not familiar with real estate, being poor, so I’m just making things up—don’t take it too seriously).
Beyond the main entrance they had walked through, there was only one other path leading to the kitchen, dining room, and other functional spaces. At about two-thirds of the way there, a simple yet stylish staircase led upwards to the second floor.
A simple architectural layout conveyed an air of spaciousness and clarity.
After taking it all in, Sui Yi slightly tilted his head and offered a small smile in response to Beauty Gong, who was eagerly awaiting praise.
"Hmm, ostentatious and flashy without much substance—quite fitting for you."
"Get lost!"
However, Gong Jiu knew that Sui Yi was not picky about such things and if he was not picky, he was likely very pleased.
She imdiately fluttered onto the sofa.
She downed the wine in one go.
And poured another glass.
As soon as she spoke, the conversation turned serious.
"Today’s incident was abnormal. I believe Ghost Teeth’s people have targeted one of us or maybe both, but since they didn’t continue pursuing, it must have been a probe... Ghost Teeth has never been known to give up on its prey."
"Mhm," Sui Yi also pieced together so clues from Lin Feng’s style and Yi Chilian’s words, "The person who made a move this ti was obviously very strong... Pay more attention when you go out these next few days."
"It’s all right, I got you," Sui Yi said nonchalantly.
"Hmm?"
"I’m going to live with you," Gong Jiu blurted out.
Seeing Sui Yi’s cool gaze fixed on her, she blinked and quickly corrected herself, "Of course, I an I’ll protect you!"
"Suit yourself. There are plenty of empty rooms anyway," Sui Yi said, uninterested in entertaining the other’s ulterior motives. Suddenly, she heard the doorbell from outside.
Feng Sha and the others had arrived!
By the ti Feng Sha had brought a doctor in to check on the drunk woman, Sui Yi had already finished a cup of Want Want milk.
Feng Sha had been staring at that bottle of milk with a strange expression.
Sui Yi: "..."
Is drinking milk a cri now?
She never liked carbonated drinks; it was either water, tea, or milk for her...
--Actually, Miss Sui, it’s just that your aloof deanor paired with a bottle of milk featuring a cartoonish wide-mouthed smile... is sowhat discordant.
"This lady has been drugged, specifically with a substance called ’Canodis tablets,’ which affects the central nervous system..."
"Speak human," Gong Jiu glared at the speaker.
"It’s a knockout drug with a mild aphrodisiac effect," the doctor explained.
"..."
Gong Jiu laughed, "Ha, I should have booked a hotel room earlier..."
Sui Yi: "Speak human."
Gong Jiu: "..."
The two Feng Shas: "..."
They hadn’t heard a thing.
After administering dicine and water, the doctor was packing up, not daring to glance too much at Sui Yi, who was with Gong Jiu. After all, birds of a feather flock together, and if soone could dominate in Gong Jiu’s presence, this beautiful girl was clearly no pushover.
Feng Sha began discussing the Maserati with Gong Jiu, "Miss Ninth, the n from the other night were from..."
"Ghost Teeth’s... Leave it be for now, probably won’t find out much. Treat it as a lesson. Oh, and get bulletproof glass installed on my other cars..."
"Understood."
"And, did you bring that file?"
Soon, a file was laid out in front of Sui Yi.
Gong Jiu, legs crossed, said, "Ye Jue must have ticked you off, huh? I did so digging later, such a scumbag... Anyway, below are so of his unseemly deeds. He’s pretty shrewd, so stuff isn’t easy to find. It took three days to get it. Take a look, and if necessary, get rid of him! Although the guy does have so tricks up his sleeve... Or should I handle it..."
"It’s not the right ti yet," Sui Yi shook her head, flipping through the docunts. The more she read, the deeper her frown beca, with a subtle hint of murderous intent in her eyes.
How could the Ye family produce such a reprobate? Compared to him, Ye Zhang might as well be a saint.
Slap, the docunts closed, Sui Yi’s gaze softened, and after a mont of silence, she spoke, "Gong Jiu, thanks!"
"Thanks my ass! You’re not paying !" Gong Jiu pouted. By this ti, the doctor had finished packing, and Feng Sha signaled to leave with him, giving Gong Jiu another look.
Gong Jiu suddenly staggered, "Whoa, I feel so dizzy... Must be the alcohol... I just can’t hold my liquor..."
Both Feng Shas saw the half-full bottle of red wine that had been opened...
It was quite embarrassing for them to recall seeing her guzzling down seven or eight bottles of strong spirits and still able to race cars.
Sui Yi looked on indifferently, "You don’t have clothes here, aren’t you worried about it being inconvenient?"
"Who says? I’ve already brought them over... I’ve even prepared yours!" Gong Jiu declared outright.
All three of them: "..."
That really was considerate.
An exasperated Feng Sha left with the doctor. As the door closed, Gong Jiu began to prance around triumphantly. Once Sui Yi had settled the woman into the guest room, Gong Jiu started preparing to take a bath and said to Sui Yi, "Honestly, you don’t have to worry about living here... I’m not a kid, I don’t need looking after... You don’t have to do laundry or anything! I’ve already hired maids... By the way, Sui Yi, I’m hungry, can you cook sothing for ?"
"... You haven’t had dinner?"
"Yeah~~ I skipped dinner just to et up with you, and you’ve already eaten..."
Sui Yi looked at the actress with a cold eye, arms crossed, and after a long pause, she lowered her gaze, "What do you want to eat?"
"Egg-fried rice! And I want veggies! Not too much, four or five dishes are enough, it’s so late... Braised pork ribs, curry chicken, beef..."
Sui Yi had already headed straight for the kitchen.
She hadn’t heard a thing. (I must state once again, this is not a yuri novel. My novels never have the female lead and the official male lead all over each other, being tender and sweet—can’t two girls who get along so well just be best friends? n have life-and-death brothers, right? What’s wrong with girls being close! Life isn’t just about romance. Anyway, I can’t write romances, and if I do, they often don’t end happily, which is sothing most of my readers are aware of—because I am single! Full of grudges! So stop asking for an official male lead—stop it~~~~~ I just write what I want, so please be patient. )
Half an hour later, Gong Jiu, freshly bathed, saw a bowl of golden egg-fried rice and five plates of vegetables.
There was also a small note beside them.
--Drink the soup before you eat to warm up your stomach. Go to sleep an hour after you finish eating. Goodnight.
She was stunned. (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to co to Qidian (qidian) to cast your recomndation votes or monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian to continue reading.)
