"How about it?"

After showing his wife around the villa, Zhang Zhongquan turned around, raised his hands, and the way his chin was raised gave the illusion that he was the owner of the villa.

"What do you mean?"

Carrying a ripped luxury handbag she'd bought from a secondhand platform, Mai Encui frowned, staring intently at her husband with a look of astonishment and suspicion in her eyes.

"Tell me, what do you think of this villa?"

how about it?
Needless to say?
It has four floors, a private garage, and an outdoor yard where you can grow flowers and sunbathe. It also has a private cinema, wine cellar, and card room. The only downside is that it's a bit far from the city center, so you definitely can't get there by electric scooter.

But is this a problem with the villa?

No.

This is their problem.

"Didn't you say you were going to take me to see houses? I even took half a day off specifically for this."

Considering her husband's high blood pressure, and for the sake of her son and her family, Mai Encui clutched her best bag tightly and restrained her tone.

She thought her husband had found a new target, but little did she know he had brought her here.

What is this place?
Quchi East Courtyard.

The battlefield is a gathering place for the wealthy!
Several wealthy women who had visited the beauty salon were residents of the area.

She was a little hesitant to enter when faced with the imposing gate.

"Yes, isn't this just a house?"

Zhang Zhongquan sat down on a sofa made of some unknown leather brand, and even crossed his legs in a very ostentatious manner.

Probably not.

Was it high blood pressure that damaged his brain?
"Dengdengdeng..."

Mai Encui quickly walked over and pulled him up, saying, "Don't let him break it, we can't afford to pay for it!"

Zhang Zhongquan shook her off.

"What compensation?

As he spoke, he lifted his buttocks and then sat down heavily. "Expensive things really are different. It's so comfortable to sit on. You should try it."

He patted the side and invited his wife to enjoy it with him.

"Zhang Zhongquan, what's wrong with you?"

Mai Encui gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, "Is this the kind of place we should be visiting? You're not ashamed, but I am. Let's get out of here!"

Zhang Zhongquan ignored everything, remaining motionless on the sofa, gazing at the opulent villa with a nostalgic expression.

"Encui, do you remember when we got married I promised you that I would give you a happy life?"

At first.

She will be moved.

But right now, there's not a single unnecessary fluctuation.

That girl's innocence had long been worn away by the daily grind of life.

"You're already in your fifties or sixties, and you're still saying all this nonsense. If you're not leaving, I'm leaving!"

Romanticism will never bloom on barren land.

"You can leave, but I'm not leaving. This is my home, and I'm not going anywhere."

Mai Encui let go of her hand, genuinely wondering if her husband had lost his mind.

"I'll take you to the hospital so that any problems can be detected and treated early."

Zhang Zhongquan seemed not to hear anything. Suddenly, he put down his crossed legs, bent down, took out a document from under the coffee table, and threw it onto the marble countertop with a "thud".

"what is this?"

Zhang Zhongquan didn't bother with any more words, "See for yourself."

Out of curiosity and confusion, Mai Encui bent down and picked up the document.

Property transfer agreement.

Mai Encui's pupils suddenly dilated. She quickly put down her bag and then began flipping through it rapidly.

"Boom!"

The sofa sank.

Unconsciously, Mai Encui gripped her husband's arm tightly, her breath coming in short gasps, and exclaimed in disbelief, "Is this for real?!"

"Use your brain. Forging this kind of contract is illegal and will get you jail time."

Mai Encui tightened her grip, her fingers almost digging into Zhang Zhongquan's flesh.

The pain caused Zhang Zhongquan to frown slightly, but he said nothing and remained tolerant.

"How can it be……"

Mai Encui was incredulous and couldn't accept the written fact: "This villa, really, is ours?"

"Ah."

Zhang Zhongquan nodded calmly, unperturbed by praise or criticism, "You can pack your things and get ready to move."

Invisible pretense is the most deadly.

At this moment, a forty-year-old man's sense of accomplishment should have reached its peak.

Zhang Zhongquan couldn't help but cross his legs again, leaning back on the sofa, his unhurried gaze like that of a lion surveying its territory.

Humans are products of their environment.

They haven't officially moved in yet, but they already have a bit of the air of a wealthy person.

"I...I'm not dreaming, am I?!"

Mai Encui had difficulty breathing and felt dizzy in waves. This was not high blood pressure, which is not contagious. It was a normal physiological reaction when a person is extremely excited.

"What are you dreaming about? From this moment on, you are the mistress of this place."

Zhang Zhongquan spoke calmly, yet exuded an air of dominance.

Maien's heart was racing.

No wonder my husband was able to open the door and come in, no wonder he seemed so familiar with the place, no wonder there were no property management staff or real estate agents with him.

"what!!!"

Overwhelmed with emotion, Mai Encui jumped up, making the sofa creak.

Zhang Zhongquan did not reprimand him; instead, a smug and indulgent smile appeared on his lips.

"Would you like to take another look?"

Mai Encui nodded hurriedly. Despite the ravages of time that had ravaged her figure, she sat next to Zhang Zhongquan and surprisingly regained a touch of petite charm.

Overjoyed, she longed to savor every inch of the view, but amidst her turbulent emotions, a host of questions arose.

"Who is this Zhou Shaohua? Why did he give you the villa?"

There's no rush to look for a house.

Now that they've all become your own property, why worry about not having time to appreciate them slowly?

You must invite the whole family and all relatives to visit!
"This isn't something a woman like you should be worrying about. All you need to know is that your man is no less than anyone else's!"

select.

Always is more important than hard work.

This has always been his unwavering belief.

This view has proven to be absolutely correct.

He had been idle for a long time.

But so what?
What is destined to happen will happen eventually.

His wife had previously urged him to start working as a food delivery driver.

Ah.

Those poor guys work from dawn till dusk, toiling away their whole lives, can they ever live in a four-story villa?

They can't even get into the gate of this community, let alone live here!
Zhang Zhongquan felt lightheaded, experiencing the ultimate pleasure in life. He thought about the shock and jealousy of his relatives and friends when they found out, about his newfound status as a member of the wealthy class in Shacheng, and about being able to return to his wife's family home with his head held high and avenged...

"Oh--"

He almost couldn't help but groan out loud.

Rich people are truly happy.

"My man is the best! Otherwise, why would I have married you!"

Mai Encui, who works at a beauty salon, is best at creating emotional value. It wasn't that she was mean and stingy before, but that Zhang Zhongquan was simply hopeless.

This is not.

Sitting in the luxurious villa, she immediately gave Zhang Zhongquan a sweet kiss, sending his already heightened emotions to an even greater climax.

"Honey, I'm going upstairs for a walk again."

Money is almost omnipotent.

It can turn a shrew into a pet cat.

Zhang Zhongquan nodded with a sneer, looking every bit the arrogant king. Of course, without a doubt, from this day forward, he would reap the family throne.

Mai Encui got up impatiently, not even bothering to pick up her treasured second-hand designer bag.

If you don't let her ask, she won't ask.

If it weren't for the pressures of life, who wouldn't want to be a woman behind a man? Half an hour later, Mai Encui returned to the lobby, still feeling refreshed and full of energy—an effect that no beauty treatment could achieve.

"Honey, we have so many rooms, we can bring Mom and Dad over."

"You make the arrangements. With such a large yard, it's perfect for keeping cats and dogs."

Look.

For most people, happiness is that simple.

It can be done for less than ten million.

The world is so diverse.

The paradise that some people dream of is nothing more than a casual signature by some.

"Husband, you are so kind!"

A man, after all, needs to have strength. Mai Encui's attitude made a complete 180-degree turn. She probably wouldn't even treat a customer this well. She sat back down next to Zhang Zhongquan and took his hand.

"I knew it, I didn't misjudge him."

Zhang Zhongquan certainly knew the real reason behind his wife's drastic change in attitude, but why should a couple be so calculating?

Furthermore.

It is only natural for men to provide women with good material conditions.

Let bygones be bygones.

The next thing to do is to make the most of the days ahead.

"Looks like we need to buy a car."

It's more than ten kilometers from the city center, so riding an electric bike is definitely impractical. It might be okay for a day or two, but it would be inconvenient for daily use over a long period of time.

"Yes, we should buy one. Since you have a driver's license, you can drive me to work every day."

Husband and wife in harmony.

This is the true meaning of life.

Zhang Zhongquan unconsciously tightened his grip on his wife's hand, and a sense of longing and anticipation for the future began to stir within him.

"Honey, did you really not spend a single penny on this villa?"

After calming down a bit, Mai Encui couldn't help but ask.

"No. I didn't pay a single penny; the renovations were all free."

"That adds up to several million."

"almost."

Zhang Zhongquan feigned nonchalance. If it weren't for the fact that he could move in with just his suitcase, he probably would have had to sell it. He couldn't afford to furnish such a large villa even if he went bankrupt.

"What about the property management fee?"

"Mainete asked in a low voice."

This is the tragedy of the poor.

Even if you get a villa for free, there are still too many issues to consider.

“I asked, and it’s not too expensive. It’s not like we don’t have the money.”

Their family still had some savings, and getting the villa for free meant they saved the money they were planning to use to buy a house.

"Living in such a nice place, you should be willing to pay the property management fee."

It can only be said that the city is still too small.

Try a place like the East China Sea.

Let alone a nationally benchmark luxury residence like Chunqiu Huafu, any villa they pick would have property management fees that would make them dizzy.

Therefore, small cities have their advantages.

It's fairly close to the lives of normal people.

It will not cause people at the grassroots level to feel hopeless.

"Well, at worst we can live here for a few years, have our fun, and then sell it and buy a smaller one."

Mai Encui had her plans in mind. With such a luxurious villa right in front of her, it would be a lifelong regret not to move in and enjoy it.

Zhang Zhongquan patted her hand.

"Thank you for your hard work these years."

Those who don't know the situation might think that this is the bright future he created for his family through his own hard work.

However, how they got it—whether through deception, fraud, or betrayal—is unimportant. The fact that the couple came together shows they are the same kind of people. Mai Encui and Zhang Zhongquan are the same, both centered on their own interests. They have a villa worth tens of millions, and that's enough for them; everything else is irrelevant.

"Honey, please don't say that. We're doing this all for the sake of this family."

Poor and humble couples are sad.

The old saying is indeed true.

Once material life becomes abundant, all conflicts vanish instantly.

"Go back and pack your things, pick an auspicious day, and move!"

Zhang Zhongquan said.

"Ok!"

Mai Encui picked up her bag, her chubby face seemingly about to spill over with heavy excitement. "How about we move in tomorrow?"

"This villa is right here, it's not going anywhere. You are its mistress."

"Bah!"

Mai Encui kissed him on the face again, as if rekindling their passion; the couple, who had been together for half their lives, were even more affectionate than newlyweds.

Just as the couple were walking out hand in hand, chatting and laughing, the property management staff of the park came in with several men wearing hats.

The couple stopped.

Are you Zhang Zhongquan?

"husband……"

As ordinary people, Zhang Zhongquan would subconsciously panic at the sight of a hat, and he was no exception. However, perhaps it was this luxurious villa that gave him confidence, and he straightened his back.

"Yes, that's me. What do you want?"

"What are you doing? You know what you've done! Come with us."

The hat spoke authoritatively.

Zhang Zhongquan was stunned. He subconsciously recalled everything he had done recently, but he was completely confused.

That's right.

He may have done many immoral things in his life, but immoral things are not illegal.

"Why? I didn't do anything! You have no right to arrest people arbitrarily!"

Feeling innocent, Zhang Zhongquan naturally refused to give in.

"Didn't do anything? That's what every criminal says when we catch them."

This villa did not grant Zhang Zhongquan any special status; the official treated him no differently than he would any ordinary citizen.

"Are you mistaken? My husband has never done anything illegal. You can check your records if you don't believe me; he has no criminal record!"

"Are you his lover?"

"Correct."

"Does having no prior criminal record mean you won't break the law? You say your spouse is innocent and hasn't done anything, so why are you here? How did you get in?"

It truly lives up to its name as a hat.

That hit the nail on the head.

Every word is heartbreaking.

Yes.

What is this place?
This is the territory of the rich.

How can the poor be allowed to stroll leisurely?

Mai Encui opened her mouth, then, as if insulted, angrily shouted, "This villa is ours!"

"Yours?"

The property management was very professional and didn't interfere, but the few officers who rushed back to carry out the task all laughed. "Your wife is unemployed, right? Where did you get the money to buy a villa? Are you trying to tell me that you earned the money by working as a woman?"

"What does this have to do with you?!"

Comrade Hat's gaze returned to Zhang Zhongquan's face. "You're extorting money. Do you think it has anything to do with us? You're not very capable, but you're very bold. You dare to ask for anything."

Extortion?

Zhang Zhongquan was stunned, his mind buzzing.

"take away!"

"No! I didn't!!! This is a frame-up! This is a frame-up!!!"

Zhang Zhongquan struggled violently and twisted wildly, but with his thin physique, he was no match for the numerous and powerful people in the hat. He could only be forced to walk out step by step.

Maientree's eyes were lifeless; she had fallen from heaven to hell in an instant, witnessing everything that happened, and was completely disoriented.

"Jiang Chen! Go find Jiang Chen!!!"

A heart-wrenching scream echoed through the air. (End of Chapter)
