Chapter 536: Chapter 337: Seaview Villa

After resting at home for a day, Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo planned to take a look at some houses soon since Zhang Wei’s money would be transferred over shortly. They could easily view the houses first and decide later whether to go with a mortgage or pay in full once the money arrived.

The two mainly wanted to find a house near Huan Island South Road, and it didn’t necessarily have to be a villa.

Chen Yang’s diving shop renovation was nearly complete, and Jiang Luoluo’s underwater dance didn’t necessarily have to be shot at home.

So a large flat was also one of their targets.

They spent a day looking at three second-hand small villas but neither of them was satisfied.

They didn’t mind whether the developments were new or second-hand, but they had to like them.

In the following two days, they looked at several large flats, but still struggled with the price and layout.

It was common to look at many options for a house that started at tens of millions; after all, it was for their own living, not for investment.

"Ah, I never expected that house hunting could be this exhausting!" Once home, Jiang Luoluo tossed her bag onto the sofa and collapsed on it.

"No way around it, if you want a suitable one, you can’t pick without looking at hundreds," Chu Mingcheng said with a laugh as he sat next to her, cradled her legs on his lap, and began massaging them to soothe her.

Today, she was wearing a white T-shirt and khaki pleated skirt, appearing pure and lovely like a twenty-something college student, not at all like a married young woman.

Chu Mingcheng caressed her smooth, fair thighs, seemingly unable to let go.

He hadn’t even been enjoying her legs for a year yet~

Jiang Luoluo leaned back comfortably, humming contentedly as her legs were massaged, occasionally making a sound that could stir the imagination.

"Looking at hundreds of places, I don’t even know if there are that many villas or large flats near Huan Island South Road; it feels very troublesome!"

Contrasting her initial enthusiasm, she was clearly still looking forward to their new house but had grown somewhat weary of the process.

Seeing this, Chu Mingcheng, feeling sorry for his wife, initially wanted to suggest that he would check out the houses first and keep some in reserve if they were satisfactory. He would then take her along to choose from those.

But in the next moment, he suddenly thought of Hu Xiangdong, who had personally gone fishing.

Considering that he was willing to offer a luxury fishing yacht worth over twenty million, he must be quite wealthy.

Perhaps he knew where suitable houses could be found?

"Right, I have a friend who might know where some good houses are. I’ll ask him first," Chu Mingcheng said.

"A friend?" Jiang Luoluo was surprised. After living together for so long, she knew all of Chu Mingcheng’s acquaintances. How could there suddenly be a new friend?

But she didn’t ask further, waiting for him to volunteer the information.

Chu Mingcheng took out his cellphone, not rushing to call Hu Xiangdong but sending a message instead since they weren’t very close.

"Brother Hu, I’m planning to buy a house on Huan Island South Road in Xia City, but after several days of looking, I’ve found nothing suitable. Are you familiar with that area?"

"Also, my budget is between twenty and fifty million, a considerable range. Mainly it’s for me and my wife to live comfortably, so something with modern decor would be better."

After sending the message, he placed his phone aside and continued to... well, massage Jiang Luoluo’s beautiful legs.

He thought Hu Xiangdong, being wealthy, would probably be quite busy, but to his surprise, he replied almost immediately.

"Sure, your budget is more than enough; finding a house should be easy," Hu Xiangdong replied.

Hu Xiangdong had always wanted to repay Chu Mingcheng for saving his life. He had initially planned to give him a boat.

But after seeing the message today, he understood why his gift was declined.

Since they were both wealthy, giving gifts or money would not be the best way, but establishing a connection and offering a minor favor could be.

With a budget between twenty and fifty million, Hu Xiangdong immediately thought of the sea-view villa he had renovated but hadn’t yet moved into.

Of course, that wasn’t his only real estate investment, so he sent Chu Mingcheng the addresses of several houses he felt were good.

"Brother Chu, it’s quite a coincidence. I’ve indeed invested in some properties in Xia City. I’ve sent you several suitable ones. Let me know when you want to see them; I’ll arrange for someone to show you around," Hu Xiangdong texted.

He highly recommended the renovated sea-view villa as the one he intended to live in, having designed it to be cozy and comfortable, not in an ornate European style.

However, not knowing Chu Mingcheng’s preferences, he sent a few more appropriate unrenovated houses.

If they wanted, they could decorate these houses in any style they liked.

Chu Mingcheng, seeing that Hu Xiangdong had immediately sent addresses for five houses, felt he had asked the right person.

Plus, since they were investment properties, buying them at market price wouldn’t make him feel overly indebted, though he knew he still owed a small favor. Hu Xiangdong was also a fishing enthusiast—perhaps he could invite him for a fishing trip or even personally assist with fishing~~

Subsequently, Chu Mingcheng shared the good news with Jiang Luoluo, and after discussing it, they decided to continue house hunting the next day and check out all five properties first.

...

The next morning at nine, Chu Mingcheng took Jiang Luoluo and set out, heading to a nearby community.

It was a weekend, and there seemed to be more pedestrians than usual.

"Ah Cheng, look!" As they stopped at a traffic light near a subway station, Jiang Luoluo suddenly tugged on his shirt from the passenger seat.
