110: A good start

Liu Nansheng followed behind Chen Li, walking along the stone path of the Residential Complex with Liang Siqi and her group.

This Residential Complex was truly worthy of being a top-tier luxury property; the landscaping was impeccable, with rare and precious trees planted on both sides of the road, their dense branches and leaves weaving into a canopy overhead.

What was most surprising was that despite being right next to The Beach, there wasn't a hint of the salty sea smell, only the fresh scent of plants and trees.

Outside the Residential Complex was a bustling public beach, crowded with tourists, the noise ceaseless.

Yet, just a wall away, the interior of the Residential Complex felt like another world, so quiet that one could only hear the rustling of the wind through the leaves and the occasional bird call.

This environment, quiet amidst the noise, made one feel exceptionally comfortable the moment they stepped inside.

Turning a corner, an exceptionally imposing Villa suddenly appeared before their eyes.

Even Chen Li, who had just bought a Villa himself, couldn't help but exclaim inwardly: "This house is just too beautiful!"

The modern design, the large glass curtain walls, paired with a meticulously maintained courtyard, radiated luxury in every detail.

Walking inside, although the layout was similar to the Villa he had previously bought, the space was significantly larger, and the decoration was even more exquisite.

The most captivating feature was the 270-degree panoramic sea view; standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, the azure sea was in full view, refreshing both the body and mind.

"President Chen, there is also an infinity pool designed on the rooftop."

A person who appeared to be a sales manager introduced at the right moment, "You can enjoy the sea view while swimming."

After hearing the sales manager's introduction, Chen Li felt a sudden twinge of regret.

Looking at the near-perfect Villa before him, a thought suddenly popped into Chen Li's mind: Should he get Liu Nansheng a different one and keep this one for himself?

How pleasant it would be to come here for vacations occasionally and enjoy the sea view.

But this thought only flashed by for a second.

He quickly dismissed this idea—words once spoken are like spilled water; since he had already brought her here to look at the house, wouldn't going back on his word now be like slapping his own face?

Besides, in his heart, he had long regarded Liu Nansheng as a woman he was determined to pursue and win over.

This was both a requirement of the system mission and because he was genuinely attracted to this exceptional girl.

Since they would be a family sooner or later, why quibble over registering the house in her name now?

Once they were together in the future, wouldn't what was hers also be his?

It wasn't just Chen Li who was amazed; Liu Nansheng, standing to the side, was dumbfounded.

She had only ever seen such luxurious houses in TV dramas; the Villa in reality was even more imposing than the ones on TV.

Is this the lifestyle of the wealthy? Just maintaining a house like this must cost a lot of money every month, let alone buying it.

She looked around; it was quiet, comfortable, and the environment was beautiful. If she could live here, how wonderful life would be?

She would never have to live a drifting, unsettled life again.

As soon as this thought emerged, she couldn't help but secretly glance at Chen Li, who was looking around the room.

Was he actually going to register such an expensive Villa in her name? Wasn't he afraid that she would turn against him later and keep the house for herself?

Did he trust her too much, or was this amount of money simply nothing to him?

"How is it? Are you satisfied?" Chen Li suddenly turned his head and asked.

"S...satisfied." Liu Nansheng replied subconsciously from the heart.

After saying this, she pulled Chen Li to the side, avoiding the sales staff, and lowered her voice:

"Chen Li, are you really going to buy this house and put it in my name? I thought you were just going to buy an ordinary apartment at most. Aren't you afraid I won't return it to you later?"

"As long as you are satisfied. You want me to go home and play along with your act, so now you cooperate with me and get the paperwork done. Give me your ID card."

With one sentence, Chen Li blocked everything she was about to say.

Liu Nansheng sighed softly.

Forget it, it all has to be returned to him anyway, so let him buy it however he wants.

She was only keeping it temporarily; she couldn't do something like claiming it as her own.

The most important thing right now was to get Chen Li to agree to accompany her home and successfully finish the act.

As for buying the house, since he insisted, she would just cooperate and get the paperwork done first; she would deal with the rest later.

The group returned to a tastefully decorated VIP room in the sales office, where Liang Siqi had already arranged everything.

She stepped forward, handed a document to Chen Li, and reported efficiently:

"President Chen, I have communicated directly with their boss through Bank channels, and the final negotiated price is twenty-six million exactly. This is the lowest discount we could secure, and the other party has stated that this is their bottom line."

This amount surprised Chen Li slightly; so little?

He had originally thought this Villa would cost at least over thirty million; he didn't expect it to be much cheaper than expected.

Liu Nansheng, standing to the side, was shocked to hear this.

When she heard the figure of twenty-six million, her breathing subconsciously hitched.

This astronomical figure was far beyond her scope of cognition; even if she spent her whole life working hard, she probably wouldn't earn a fraction of this amount.

Chen Li calmly took out Liu Nansheng's ID card from his pocket and handed it to Liang Siqi: "Please handle the remaining paperwork."

This action stunned the several sales staff, except for Liang Siqi.

Their gazes shifted back and forth between Chen Li and Liu Nansheng—this top-tier Villa was actually being bought for this young girl?

This was too exaggerated!

This wasn't just buying a luxury item or a car for getting around, nor was it an ordinary apartment costing one or two million; it was the "King of the Buildings," the most expensive unit in the entire project, a top-tier luxury property that ranked among the best in the whole city!

The two young saleswomen nearby stared with wide eyes, a surge of uncontrollable envy rising in their hearts.

But when their eyes fell on Liu Nansheng again, examining her elegant and outstanding appearance and her calm, ethereal temperament, the little spark of jealousy in their hearts instantly dissipated.

In the interval while the paperwork was being processed, several sales staff couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

"My god, has our 'King of the Buildings' really been sold?" a young saleswoman around twenty-three couldn't hide her surprise.

"It's absolutely true," the saleswoman who had accompanied them to view the house lowered her voice, "And it was bought by a young rich guy for his girlfriend. They both look like they are just in their early twenties."

"So envious, this is a real rich guy..."

"You can't envy it; didn't you see how beautiful that girl is..."

The paperwork was quickly completed amidst the whispers of the sales staff.

When the documents requiring a signature were pushed in front of Liu Nansheng, she held the pen, but her gaze turned to Chen Li, her eyes carrying a hint of inquiry and confirmation.

Chen Li gave a positive response with his eyes.

So she no longer hesitated; the hovering pen tip finally fell, and the name 'Liu Nansheng' was signed on the contract in delicate handwriting.

【Host spent: 26,000,000 Yuan for Liu Nansheng】

【Affection Level: +32】

【System transfer received: 832,000,000 Yuan】

【Total withdrawable amount: 3,588,500,000 Yuan】

Looking at the system prompts, the Affection Level was still too low. If the current Affection Level were at maximum, this single expenditure would have directly fulfilled the quota.

But on second thought, being able to get Liu Nansheng to cooperate was already a good start.

Let's complete the simple things first; as for the hardest part—winning her over—that can wait...

This is just like an exam—do the easy ones first, and figure out the hard ones later.
