17: Buy a house, get drunk

The elevator goes directly to the double-story duplex.

Not counting the renovation.

This house alone would probably not be affordable without 100 million.

In the past,

Lin Ye wouldn't even have the courage to look at it, but now that he had money in his pocket, he naturally didn't care too much.

Although he still couldn't afford to buy it,

he could afford to rent it.

And if he gave himself a little more time and earned more gold coins, he would be able to afford to buy it.

Oh, right.

This community really met his requirements.

It was far from the school, yet in the most central part of the city, and the security was impeccable; the property's main selling point was safety and privacy.

"The environment here is quite good. Are there any houses for rent in the community?" Lin Ye asked casually.

"You need one?"

Bai Shuya said directly, "Then it's perfect, the unit next door is currently for sale, and they're in a hurry, it's only 120 million."

120 million?

You said 'only'...!?

"Not buying." Lin Ye quickly declined, not only was the price unsuitable, but being so close was also too dangerous: "I'll find an agent to ask later, renting one will do."

"Worried about a price drop?" Bai Shuya guessed: "No, it's a problem caused by the capital shortage of eternal at its initial opening. Real estate in this location, unless the world explodes, will never lose money no matter when you buy it... Hmm?"

Bai Shuya hadn't finished speaking when Yan Yan pulled her away: "Don't buy it, you don't need to buy it now. If you like it, I have four or five empty rooms here, little brother can choose freely."

In an instant,

Lin Ye felt even more dangerous.

"I think General Manager Bai is right, it's better to buy..."

"Then let's do it today, I'll help you make the arrangements." Bai Shuya was unusually proactive, shaking off Yan Yan's hand and pulling out her phone to make a call.

Thump!

Lin Ye's heart pounded. Are you serious?

No way~

Is it that simple for you to buy something over a hundred million?

Just buy it on a whim?

While Lin Ye was slightly distracted, Bai Shuya had already settled things with the next-door owner in a few words.

"Done!"

What?

Lin Ye was dumbfounded: "What did you settle?"

"The house, it's all settled," Bai Shuya replied.

"No..."

Lin Ye felt a bit dizzy, rubbing his forehead and furrowing his brows: "Is there a possibility that I'm the one buying the house, and I haven't even spoken, so how did you settle it?"

"You said to buy, and I went to negotiate, for the price convenience."

Bai Shuya said as if it were natural.

"It's already bought, the owner is very easy to talk to, she's covering all the fees, even reduced the price by 5 million, and also helped contact the notary office. We'll sign an agreement at home later, pay a 30 million deposit first, and the rest can be paid within a week."

Wait a minute?

Lin Ye's pupils contracted: "You mean, sign the agreement today?"

"Yes, just notarize the right to handle it, and then you can transfer ownership whenever it's convenient." Bai Shuya made it sound very simple.

The matter,

was indeed as simple as she said.

A property worth over a hundred million, she settled it with just a few words.

The efficiency was so fast.

Lin Ye even felt like he had fallen for a scam.

But,

how could he have the money?

He only had a little over 30 million in his pocket, all of which she had just transferred to him.

Lin Ye sighed.

"Things were handled really fast, but didn't you consider what would happen if I didn't have the money to pay?"

"It's fine, isn't there still our Miss Yan here? I think she'd be very happy to pay, wouldn't she?" Bai Shuya's smile held a hint of triumph.

Yan Yan nodded affirmatively, but the look in her eyes towards Bai Shuya already held a hint of murderous intent.

She didn't need to buy it.

Now, not only did it waste Lin Ye's money, but it also ruined her plan to find a partner.

Bad!

This woman, she's really bad!

Ding-dong~

The doorbell rang.

Su Wanting went to open the door, but it was over a dozen waiters pushing carts who walked in.

Soon,

a large table of sumptuous dinner was all laid out.

After everyone left,

Lin Ye rubbed his temples and gritted his teeth: "Just now you said eating out isn't as good as cooking at home, aren't these still restaurant chefs?"

"The environment is different, it's more comfortable at home." Yan Yan explained seriously.

"Yes, comfortable, so why don't you take off your high heels?" Bai Shuya seemed intent on causing trouble today, showing no mercy to her sister.

Yan Yan glared, her brows furrowed.

This was the first time she had shown a hint of anger.

"Big White Bear, are you serious?"

"You started it."

"Alright, then you take yours off first~"

"I wasn't even wearing any!"

Lin Ye looked down.

Bai Shuya was indeed barefoot, stepping on the carpet.

It had to be said, her feet were very beautiful, her toes were also very round, and the tomato-red nail polish was very bright, making one feel very hungry just by looking at it.

Ding-dong~

The doorbell rang again.

The neighbor and the notary arrived together.

From start to finish,

Lin Ye was only responsible for signing and making payments.

The rest had nothing to do with him.

It was easily done in about ten minutes.

When he received the notarized document, Lin Ye still felt a bit dazed.

He just bought a house like that?

And it was a top-floor duplex in Tomson Riviera?

Total price, 115 million?!

Honestly,

this was even faster and simpler than eating a meal.

The only problem

was that he had to gather the remaining 85 million within a week.

There was a little pressure,

but not much.

Lin Ye thought to himself.

Even if he just earned a million an hour, he could still make 100 million in a week, right?

"Let's eat."

Lin Ye had already planned to eat and then make a run for it, but Bai Shuya pushed a glass of red wine towards him.

"I don't think Demon Lord would say he can't drink, would he?"

You...

You really know how to talk.

Lin Ye certainly couldn't say no now, but he wasn't afraid either.

I'm a man.

Although I'm not good at drinking, even if I'm bad, can I really not outdrink a woman?

What a joke!

"I don't understand your rules, but if you want me to drink, then we'll have to follow our rules." Lin Ye picked up the wine dispenser with one hand and directly filled his glass.

Bai Shuya smiled slightly, raising an eyebrow: "Sure, no problem, just say it."

"Our rule is very simple: for the first meeting, three glasses down, no holding back~" Lin Ye raised his red wine glass and chugged it down.

Bai Shuya wasn't afraid either; after filling her glass, she also raised her head and chugged it down.

She really didn't hold back.

Nor did she cheat.

Lin Ye was a bit surprised.

This was a standard red wine glass; normally, a shallow pour isn't much, but if it's filled, it's at least three taels.

Three glasses would be a jin.

Even with rice wine, it wouldn't be easy to chug a jin, would it?

I don't believe it!

Gulp, gulp~

The two of them each had three glasses down.

Bai Shuya's face instantly flushed crimson, and her whole body also became flushed, truly turning red from head to toe.

Lin Ye felt a bit dizzy, but he was fine.

At this moment, Yan Yan, who was beside him, suddenly laughed, walking over with two bottles of red wine in her hand and saying:

"Little brother Lin, by your rules, this is our first meeting too, you know~"

"No problem, one bottle each!"

Lin Ye had at least been to a few drinking parties before.

If his alcohol tolerance wasn't good and he encountered an old drunk trying to pressure him, then there was only one way to win.

Drink fast!

As long as you drink fast enough, even someone with good alcohol tolerance can get drunk easily.

Gulp~

Lin Ye's body swayed slightly, already feeling a bit nauseous.

On the other hand, Yan Yan.

At this moment, her eyes were hazy, she was leaning on the table, her body swaying, and she still seemed a bit unconvinced.

"Wan Ting? Wan Ting!"

Bai Shuya was completely flushed, but she hadn't fallen yet, especially seeing that Lin Ye hadn't fallen, she couldn't fall either.

"Our girls will stand up and fight him!"

Lin Ye was speechless.

Does she want to win that badly?

He looked down at Su Wanting; she hadn't even drunk yet, but her cheeks were already a little flushed.

"School Beauty Su, we're classmates..."

It was fine when Lin Ye didn't speak, but as soon as he did, Su Wanting stood up, picked up the two bottles of red wine next to her, and walked over.

"School Beauty Su, are you sure?"

Su Wanting reached out and handed him a bottle, her eyes incredibly firm: "I can't let my sisters down. Drink it all, no holding back~!"

As she spoke,

she uncorked the bottle, ready to chug.

But looking at her clumsy movements, it was clear she didn't even know how to open it.

She wants to compete like this?

"Okay, big sister will help you!" Bai Shuya knew how, but her hands were also shaking, and it took the two of them a long time to open the bottle.

Lin Ye was defeated.

"Hey, hey, are you guys really okay? Don't cause trouble in a bit, it'll be too late even if we call 120..."

Su Wanting, she was truly an honest little girl. She raised her head, closed her eyes, furrowed her delicate brows, and began to chug, gulping it down.

Lin Ye was speechless.

He looked at the red wine in his hand.

Drink it!

This time, Lin Ye really couldn't drink anymore; even if it were four pounds of juice, chugging it down would make you vomit.

He finally managed to chug it down.

He looked up.

Su Wanting had actually finished drinking before him, and her face wasn't even that red, not even as red as when she was shy before.

What the heck?

What's going on?

Lin Ye was stunned.

"Good job, Wan Ting, big sister loves you~" Seeing this, Bai Shuya immediately hugged Su Wanting into her arms and gave her a big kiss.

Yan Yan recovered for a while, and seemed to have sobered up a bit.

"Little brother's alcohol tolerance, it seems... it seems not very good either. If you can't even outdrink little Wan Ting, then you definitely can't win against big sister~"

One sentence

immediately made Lin Ye's blood rush. He turned around, opened two bottles of red wine, and handed them over.

"Come, I'll drink first!"

Yan Yan, however, couldn't continue after drinking half. She stood up, swayed a couple of steps, then turned and fainted onto the sofa, dropping the wine bottle and staining a large area of the carpet red.

"First... first one down!"

As Lin Ye finished speaking, the scene before his eyes began to sway wildly.

He couldn't hold on.

His alcohol tolerance was already mediocre.

And he had come on an empty stomach.

They said they would eat.

But in the end, he didn't eat a single bite, and they started competing in drinking. Even a wine immortal would get drunk.

Dizzy~

His consciousness blurred.

......

He didn't know how long had passed.

Lin Ye's stomach was uncomfortable, and he suddenly woke up, feeling something soft beneath him.

Tsk, this luxury Simmons mattress really is good quality.

He rolled over and got out of bed.

But he saw a flushed, pretty face.

General Manager Bai?

Why was she here?

Then he looked at himself.

Lin Ye's clothes had long since disappeared.

But thankfully,

his underwear was still on.

At least his safety was secured.

General Manager Bai had also changed into pajamas, no problem.

Just as he was about to tiptoe out of bed,

a hand suddenly shot out from beside him and pulled Lin Ye back.

Across from him,

Yan Yan's pretty face was only one centimeter away from his.

The scent of her body, mixed with the smell of alcohol, almost made Lin Ye fall drunk onto the bed again.

No.

He really had to go.

It wasn't that Lin Ye was worse than a beast, but his body really couldn't hold it in anymore.

He carefully struggled free.

He rolled out of bed.

He looked around and saw that there was only a bathtub in the bedroom, and the partition was transparent.

He went out.

He found a random bathroom, went in, pulled it out, and was about to pee.

Urgent!

"Hoo~"

Lin Ye let out a long sigh, feeling completely refreshed.

He looked up and found that the bathroom was misty, and there was a full layer of bubbles in the bathtub next to him.

Lin Ye reached out and tested the water temperature; it was just right.

What was he waiting for then?

Wash!

Plop~

Lin Ye flipped over and lay down.

He felt the warm water flowing over his back and the gentle, precise massage.

Ah, so good!

Lin Ye couldn't help but say,

a mansion is truly luxurious!

Every bathroom had a bathtub, and it was a massage one, truly high-class.

Look.

This massage was multi-directional, it didn't seem like mechanical quality at all, it was truly top-tier~!

Lin Ye was enjoying himself.

Then his body tilted, and he was pushed to the side by the water flow.

Following that,

a small head, covered in a pile of bubbles, slipped out of the water.

"Hiss~ Hoo~ Hoohoohoo~"

Watching the other person gasp for air, Lin Ye finally knew who had been 'massaging' him just now.

"School Beauty Su?"

"You... why didn't you say anything?!"
