190: Chapter 190 Is this mother the same age as her daughter?

Hearing the gentle female voice on the other end of the line, a very amiable smile played on Li Yanxing's lips.

"Ms. He, I have a friend here who wants to buy a villa, and I happened to think of the house you listed."

"We're on our way and thought we'd stop by to take a look. I wonder if you're home right now and if it's convenient for you to receive us?"

Hearing this, He Jingyu on the other end of the line was instantly filled with undisguised surprise!

"It's convenient! Director Li, I'm so grateful for your help in bringing a friend to see the house!"

"The roads inside this neighborhood are quite complicated. I'll go to the entrance now to meet you!"

"No need to trouble yourself. I'll just drive straight over. Please wait for us at home."

After saying that, Li Yanxing hung up the phone and casually placed it on the car's center console.

The black sedan smoothly entered the gates of the Xiangmi Lake Villa District, and its speed gradually slowed.

The security guard on duty at the gate clearly recognized Li Yanxing, respectfully saluting and letting them through immediately.

The car drove along the wide, tree-lined avenue, where the tall, dense trees on both sides blocked out the harsh sunlight.

When the car was halfway there, Li Yanxing suddenly stepped on the brakes and pulled over to the side of the road.

Zhang Qi looked through the front windshield in confusion, only to see someone on the tree-lined avenue not far ahead.

A tall, slender figure in high heels was hurrying toward the car.

As the person ran closer, both Zhang Qi and Li Bingyue in the back seat could clearly see her appearance.

She was a young woman who looked to be only in her twenties. She was extremely beautiful and had an exceptionally outstanding temperament!

She wore a well-tailored, light-colored silk dress, and the texture of the fabric looked highly premium.

The dress hugged her body tightly, perfectly outlining her graceful and voluptuous curves.

Her slender waist, which looked like it could be held in one hand, and the full, pert curve of her chest made it impossible to look away!

Her delicate features, paired with slightly wavy long hair, exuded an air of mature and charming elegance.

Li Yanxing rolled down the window and waved gently at the slightly out-of-breath, beautiful woman.

"Ms. He, why did you run all the way out here? Didn't I tell you to wait at home?"

"Director Li, since you brought a friend, how could I just sit idly at home and wait for you?" Her expression was earnest, and her tone was incredibly sincere and polite.

"Don't stand outside. Hurry up and get in the car first. We can talk when we get to the villa," Li Yanxing said quickly.

He Jingyu nodded gratefully, opened the back door, and sat down next to Li Bingyue.

Looking at the overly beautiful woman beside her, Li Bingyue couldn't help but feel a slight sense of pressure.

Li Yanxing restarted the car and, while driving, introduced them to Zhang Qi.

"Zhang Qi, this is the owner, Ms. He Jingyu. Ms. He, this is Zhang Qi, who is looking to buy the house."

Hearing this, He Jingyu immediately turned to look at Zhang Qi in the passenger seat, her eyes filled with warmth.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang. Thank you so much for making the long trip here!"

Zhang Qi nodded politely to He Jingyu and said calmly that he was just stopping by on his way.

With both hands on the steering wheel, Li Yanxing took the opportunity to explain the details of the villa and He Jingyu's situation.

It turned out that this luxury villa was once a core asset under the name of a wealthy businessman in Shenzhen.

And He Jingyu, who looked to be only in her twenties, was that wealthy businessman's lawful wife!

A while ago, the wealthy businessman passed away from a sudden illness, and He Jingyu naturally inherited his assets.

However, He Jingyu knew absolutely nothing about business, so she simply sold off the entire company left behind by the businessman.

As a result, she lost her steady source of income, and her life gradually became a bit financially strained.

For a top-tier villa like those in Xiangmi Lake, the annual property management fees and garden maintenance costs were absolutely astronomical!

He Jingyu simply couldn't afford such massive daily expenses, which was why she decided to list the villa for sale.

She planned to take the money, buy a smaller apartment, and live a peaceful life with her daughter.

During his lifetime, the wealthy businessman had some business dealings with Li Yanxing, and the two had a decent friendship.

Li Yanxing knew that He Jingyu wanted to sell the villa, so he took this opportunity today to lend her a hand.

Once He Jingyu knew that Zhang Qi was the wealthy buyer looking to purchase the house, her attitude toward him became extremely warm.

Within a few minutes, the black sedan pulled up smoothly in front of a luxury villa with a massive footprint.

Zhang Qi pushed open the car door and stepped out. What met his eyes was a luxury building with a highly modern design.

In front of the villa was an enormous private courtyard, filled with all kinds of neatly trimmed, precious plants.

Looking at the exterior environment of the villa, Zhang Qi was highly satisfied. This was exactly the kind of house he wanted.

He Jingyu walked up to Zhang Qi's side, looked at the grand villa, and a slightly embarrassed yet stunning smile appeared on her face.

"Mr. Zhang, this villa is too big, and I usually don't manage things, so I'm actually not very familiar with it."

"However, my daughter is very familiar with the place. I already called her in advance."

"Let's go inside and have a cup of tea first. When she gets back in a little while, I'll have her introduce it to you in detail."

Hearing this, Zhang Qi turned to look at He Jingyu standing beside him, his brow furrowing slightly.

This woman looked to be twenty-five or twenty-six at most, and her skin was so well-maintained that she looked like an innocent young girl.

Her daughter?

Zhang Qi calculated silently in his mind. Even if this woman had married early, her daughter could only be a few years old at most, right?

Having a toddler introduce a luxury villa worth over a hundred million?

This sounded incredibly unreliable. Surely this woman wasn't joking with him!

Suppressing his doubts, Zhang Qi followed her through the main entrance of the luxury villa.

The interior of the villa was luxuriously decorated, filled with high-end custom furniture that exuded understated luxury.

Zhang Qi sat down on the leather sofa in the spacious living room, quietly taking in his surroundings.

He Jingyu eagerly went to brew a pot of top-grade tea and poured a cup for everyone present.

The four of them sat in the spacious living room, sipping tea while casually chatting about everyday things.

After about ten minutes or so, the heavy solid wood door of the villa was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Accompanied by the crisp clicking of high heels, a young girl quickly walked in from the foyer.

Zhang Qi instinctively turned to look, only to see that the person who entered was actually a beautiful girl in her early twenties!

The girl was dressed in fashionable casual wear, tall with long limbs, delicate features, and a quiet, serene temperament in her eyes.

Seeing the girl walk in, He Jingyu immediately stood up, a brilliant smile appearing on her face.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting. My daughter is finally back."

Hearing this, Zhang Qi's hand holding the teacup froze instantly, and he was completely dumbfounded.

He widened his eyes, looking first at the smiling He Jingyu, and then at the young girl who had just walked in.

What was going on?

He Jingyu looked only in her twenties, and this girl who just entered also looked to be in her early twenties!

This mother was actually the same age as her own daughter?
