Chapter 122: Huo Muyan

This fireworks feast, worth over 7 million, burned for a full hour and twenty minutes.

Guests staying at the same hotel as Zheng Qian couldn't help but exclaim: "Even if it were 7 million in cash, it wouldn't burn this fast!"

The Maldives has always been the ultimate holy land for couples on their honeymoon.

Who knows which big shot was capable of such a grand gesture just to woo a girl.

Incredible!

On her side, Xia Xixi shook her head. She leaned against the window, watching the entire spectacle.

"It really is quite beautiful."

"If only it were for me."

"Sigh."

Xia Xixi lay back on the bed, filled with emotion.

When would she ever meet a Prince Charming like that? She would definitely be moved to tears and say "I do" on the spot.

As for Zheng Qian... forget it.

Zheng Qian's mind might seem to be on her, but in reality, he was just paying some attention to her; it wasn't genuine affection. Even if there was any, it was just crooked intentions.

Besides, with so many women around Zheng Qian, she didn't even know what number she would rank.

Xia Xixi certainly didn't want to wake up every morning and have to run to seven or eight different women's rooms to pay her respects; that was feudal society, a thing of the past.

The seventh day.

Zheng Qian opened his sleepy eyes, looking at the little beauty still fast asleep in his arms.

He didn't know how it happened yesterday, but in a haze, he had somehow ended up in bed with Xu Shuyun.

Today was his last planned day in the Maldives; he had to fly back to Yebai at nine in the evening.

Zheng Qian used his phone to quickly calculate the system cash rebates from the past few days.

7-star hotel 28 million + shopping 47.5 million + airfare 600,000 + Beihai sea-view hotel 5 days 30 million + food and entertainment 24 million + 40 million, fireworks 70 million + Xia Xixi buying a car 39 million, and finally adding the 40+ million originally in Zheng Qian's account.

Hmm?

Why is it only 320 million? That's a bit low!

However, Zheng Qian still had an ace up his sleeve. Buying a house!

Last time Zheng Qian bought Jiangshan International for Jin Lu, the system provided such a large one-time cash rebate.

On the last day, he would buy a house for Xu Shuyun in the Maldives, snag one last wave of rebates, and then return to Yebai.

At any time, buying property is the number one choice for farming huge cash rebates.

The first six days were just small potatoes; the last day was Zheng Qian's trump card.

"Lazy piglet, wake up. I'm taking you to buy a gift today."

Zheng Qian pinched Xu Shuyun's waist, but who would have thought he'd hit her ticklish spot, waking her up.

"Oh, let me sleep a little longer."

"I'm taking you to buy a gift today."

"Hmm... what gift?"

"It wouldn't be fun if I told you. Get up, I'm taking you."

After the two got up, Zheng Qian tossed the room card directly to Xia Xixi, telling her to pack up the luggage at the hotel today so that when he returned, they could fly straight back to Yebai.

Although the Maldives is a small country, it has top-tier properties; many wealthy people from Europe and America like to come here to buy real estate.

Zheng Qian was fortunate enough to contact a real estate agency run by a Chinese person here.

"Qian, is the gift you mentioned buying a house?" Xu Shuyun's face was filled with surprise and joy.

Zheng Qian hummed in agreement: "That's right."

"That doesn't seem appropriate."

"Why not? You've given yourself to me as a gift, so naturally, I have to give you a return gift."

"When we're both too old to work, we can just come back here to retire and live a life of leisure." Zheng Qian replied with a smile.

Xu Shuyun pictured it in her mind—the image of her and Zheng Qian, white-haired and holding hands, spending the rest of their lives together. Just thinking about it was lovely.

Throughout the morning, Zheng Qian took Xu Shuyun to look at several properties, eventually settling on two.

Both villas were located on the North Island; standing inside, one could see the sparkling, boundless blue ocean.

In terms of price, one was 45 million, and the other was 47 million—not much of a difference.

"Qian, it's just a house, we don't need to buy one so expensive..."

Xu Shuyun had been raised in luxury, but she had never spent this much money in her life. She hadn't expected that a single property in the Maldives would be worth more than half of the Jinxiu Group; there was no need for such a grand gesture...

But looking at Zheng Qian's expression, it seemed as if these forty-something million meant nothing to him. Xu Shuyun started to doubt Zheng Qian's background; just how rich was he?

Although Xu Shuyun didn't know the exact figures for their food and entertainment in the Maldives over the past two days, it certainly couldn't have been a small amount of money.

"Well, real estate is also a form of investment; it might appreciate several times over by then. Don't overthink it, just pick one of the two properties." Zheng Qian spoke eloquently.

"Alright, do you have any opinions? Which of the two do you prefer?"

Both were the most luxurious sea-view villas on the North Island, and Zheng Qian was quite satisfied with both. If he had to choose, he would definitely pick the latter; the extra 2 million would become 20 million after the system rebate, which was not a small amount.

"Why? I feel the first one is clearly better, and it's cheaper." Xu Shuyun couldn't help but ask.

"Well, this involves Feng Shui issues; the first one has bad Feng Shui." Zheng Qian used his old trick again, employing the same excuse he used when picking a location for Deng Yuqing.

"Huh? You believe in that?"

Xu Shuyun was an atheist, and she was a bit surprised to hear Zheng Qian's reasoning; she hadn't expected him to believe in Feng Shui.

"Of course. Feng Shui and physiognomy are the essence passed down through thousands of years in our country; there must be some truth to them."

"However, if you want to buy the first one, that's fine too. I don't mind."

"Never mind then, let's go with the second one." Xu Shuyun nodded. With things like this, they exist if you believe in them and don't if you don't, so it was better to listen to Zheng Qian.

"Oh my, Mr. Zheng! You really have an eye for quality!" The real estate agent, Qiu Minrui, exclaimed.

He had been diligently introducing properties to Zheng Qian and Xu Shuyun all morning, his mouth never stopping.

"Mr. Zheng, to be honest with you, the first property belonged to the boss of a telecom fraud group back home. He was arrested half a year ago, and his assets were seized after his arrest. The current ownership is in the hands of the Maldives Finance Bureau."

"The second property belongs to a certain president of a listed group in Northern Europe, but he doesn't come to the Maldives even once a year. It was only handed over to us for listing two months ago."

"How exactly do you determine the Feng Shui? Can you teach me? I really need this skill for my line of work."

Manager Qiu looked so eager to learn that he almost scared Zheng Qian.

Zheng Qian used the same line again, pressing his index finger to his lips: "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."

"Qian, you are just too amazing!" Xu Shuyun hooked her arm around Zheng Qian's, rubbing against him.

After hearing Manager Qiu talk about the previous owner of the property, she felt a little unlucky too.

A look of guilt flashed across Zheng Qian's face. In reality, there was no such thing as Feng Shui; he had made it all up.

"Alright, let's just swipe the card. This sea-view villa is a gift for Ms. Xu, so just put it under her name."

At this moment, a female secretary walked over, wanting to speak to Manager Qiu privately.

Manager Qiu was furious: "What is there that you can't say here? Mr. Zheng is our big client, just speak!"

"Ms. Huo has already arrived downstairs," the female secretary stammered.

"Huo... Huo Muyan?"

The female secretary nodded nervously.

"Mr. Zheng, please excuse me for a moment; I need to go over there."

Just as Manager Qiu stood up, a girl dressed elegantly, with skin as fair as frost and snow, walked over from the staircase and arrived in front of the four of them.

Her aura was not the least bit inferior to Jiang Yanran's.
