Chapter Thirty-Three: Bungling Invention
"Sister, what did you say? Someone wants to buy this house?" Chu Feng received a call from his landlady, and was suddenly stunned. He had just found a sense of home in the villa, but now he had to move again?
"Yes, they quoted a price and I couldn't make the decision on my own, so I discussed it with my brother and he agreed." The landlady said with a hint of apology.
"Can you tell me how much it is?" The villa, Chu Feng was already familiar with the place and had even thought of bringing his parents over, but unexpectedly, something unexpected happened, and he felt a bit depressed.
The landlady hesitated for a moment on the other end of the phone before finally saying the price: "10 million."
"A hundred million?" Chu Feng felt his head spinning, so much money, even if he had the heart to buy this villa, he simply didn't have that kind of money. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly: I'm still a poor man!
"Yes, one million. The landlady repeated again with a hint of apology: "The other person is in a hurry to buy, I think we should meet soon, and I will return all your rent, really sorry about this."
Chu Feng heard the landlady ramble on for a long time, but he didn't listen to a single sentence. He mechanically responded with a "good" and hung up the phone.
"What's going on? Are you selling your house?" Qin Fang had been over for a while and heard Chu Feng's phone call, so she asked with concern.
"Hmm." Chu Feng raised his head and saw that it was Qin Fang. His tightly furrowed eyebrows relaxed, and he smiled at her: "I'm going out for a bit."
"Go ahead, you're a free man now anyway." Qin Fang said with a smile, trying to cheer him up.
Actually, since Chu Feng started supplying wine to Zhuangyuan Pavilion, he had already become a free man there. Even when going to work, no one would manage him, which was also what Qin Fang meant.
Chu Feng turned around and walked out, but Qin Fang slowed down behind him and called out to him again: "I'll go with you, it's also convenient for me to help you carry things."
Chu Feng wanted to refuse, but Qin Fang had already walked up quickly, so he thought for a moment and didn't say anything else.
……
Outside the villa, Yu Hai was standing there with the landlady, her eyes flashing with a hint of cold triumph.
He was slapped in the face twice yesterday, and after going back, he personally asked about Chu Feng's background and also understood why Shi Jianghui valued Chu Feng so much. The result shocked him, but soon he became happy.
So he made up his mind to find his way back.
From a distance, he saw Chu Feng, with a hint of disdain on his face, but in an instant, this hint of disdain was replaced by a deep-seated hatred, because he saw Qin Fang walking behind Chu Feng.
Chu Feng saw that Yu Hai was also there, and he was slightly stunned. Suddenly, he understood why someone would be so eager to buy this villa. He sighed in his heart: This Yu Hai is really a lingering ghost!
He took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and walked towards the landlady with a smile.
"Anyway, he had no conflict with the landlady, after all, she didn't need this house anymore and wanted to sell it at a high price, which was understandable: 'Sister, good morning.'"
The landlady smiled apologetically at Chu Feng and took out a bulging paper package from her body: "Young man, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect it to be like this either."
"It's nothing." Chu Feng didn't go to take the paper package, but instead seemed nonchalant as he glanced at Yu Hai: "Big sister, since you're in such a hurry to sell, I'll move out tomorrow."
"Hey kid, here's your rent, I'm giving it all back to you. For the next few days, I won't charge you any money. Consider it a treat from me for staying with us." The landlady said with some embarrassment, her face showing a hint of difficulty, and her voice became much softer: "How about this, you move out today, I..."
"Sister, keep the rent money, it's only right that you get paid for the house. I just need to move tomorrow." Chu Feng didn't let the landlady continue speaking.
"You're living in someone else's house and you still have the nerve to talk back, just move out when you're told to, what nonsense are you spouting!" Yu Hai hummed coldly from the side, his eyes filled with hatred.
"Yu Hai, don't go too far!" Qin Fang, who had been following Chu Feng all along, couldn't bear it anymore after hearing Yu Hai's words and stood up to rebuke him.
Yu Hai saw Qin Fang completely standing on Chu Feng's side, his face suddenly changed, and the corner of his eye twitched, saying hatefully: "Now that I've bought this house, what I say goes!"
"Is it?" Chu Feng's eyebrows slightly raised, calmly looking at Yu Hai.
"You must get out of here right now!" Yu Hai furiously hummed, proudly and loudly shouting at Chu Feng.
Chu Feng gazed at him with a playful expression, then calmly pulled out the rental contract from his pocket and flashed it in front of Yu Hai: "I did sign the rental contract back then. If not for Big Sis's face, I wouldn't move out even tomorrow."
Yu Hai was so angry that he didn't even bother with Chu Feng's rental contract: "I'm going in to collect the rent right now, see what you can do about it!"
Chu Feng suddenly burst out laughing coldly, his body took a step forward, facing Yu Hai: "It seems you've forgotten what happened yesterday."
"You..." Upon hearing this, Hai's expression changed in an instant. He subconsciously took a step back, and the two bodyguards, Li Da and Li Er, quickly stepped forward to stand on either side of his body.
On the side, the landlady saw that things had become like this and secretly regretted it. However, she couldn't get away from this matter, so she had to stand out: "You all calm down, everyone take a step back, okay?"
"Hey kid, here's your rent deposit, I'm returning it all to you. Can you move out today? Consider this a favor from me." The landlady grabbed onto Chu Feng and handed him the package in her hand.
"Chu Feng, let's move today." Qin Fang didn't want to see Yu Hai, so she followed up with some persuasion.
"Alright." Chu Feng took over the package and put it directly into his bosom without even looking at it.
The landlady walked towards Yu Hai again and said something to him. Yu Hai nodded slightly.
Yu Hai suddenly walked towards Chu Feng and hummed heavily: "A poor ghost, actually still wants to live in such a good house, can you afford it!"
Chu Feng's eyebrows furrowed, and her feet moved slightly as she was about to make a move. Just then, Qin Fang suddenly grabbed Chu Feng's arm and said softly, "Chu Feng, my friend and I are two girls living in a large villa, but we feel very unsafe. Do you think you could be our bodyguard?"
Actually, Qin Fang said this, not a momentary impulse, when buying the hundred-year-old Chenyao, she took advantage of Chu Feng's great convenience, of course, this is also because at that time did not dare to confirm whether the wine was really a hundred years old Chenyao, so even Su Cheng did not dare to open too high a price.
After Mengjiu was finalized, Qin Fang gave a price of 50,000 for the hundred-year-old Chenyao, but what he said was 50,001.
Among them, Qin Fang can be said to have taken advantage of the situation. Although she didn't say anything afterwards, she always felt indebted to Chu Feng, so today, she spoke out not only to help Chu Feng get out of trouble but also to repay this favor.
Chu Feng naturally didn't know what Qin Fang was thinking in her heart, but actually he did know, because things had already been settled and he wouldn't go back on his word again. After all, a man's promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold, this is something that must be done!
It's his fault for not knowing the value of a hundred-year-old wine back then! In fact, even now, he doesn't fully understand the value of a hundred-year-old wine because his mind is mostly focused on cultivation.
So he heard Qin Fang's words, slightly stunned, turned his head to look over, but saw her with a serious face, couldn't tell whether it was true or false. Then looking at Yu Hai, whose face had already turned red with anger, he immediately understood and smiled: "Being able to be the guardian of two beauties, I am more than happy."
"Let's hurry up and move things then." Qin Fang said as she walked into the villa with Chu Feng.
Outside, Yu Hai's face had turned black and purple with rage. He had bought this villa with the intention of making things difficult for Chu Feng, leaving him homeless. Now, it seemed he had inadvertently helped Chu Feng instead. This unexpected turn of events left Yu Hai seething with anger.
He got angrier and angrier, suddenly a fit of rage attacked his heart, he only felt dizzy on his head, and the whole person went down softly.
