Chapter 486: Chapter 393: The Golden House Conceals the Beauty

In the car, a brief silence had fallen.

Chen Jieyu had been listening to Cheng Zhu’s words, sinking into a gloomy mood.

Indeed, just as Cheng Zhu had said, Hang City’s New Year’s Eve was bright with lights from a myriad of homes, but not one belonged to her.

She could only stay in the cold, empty faculty dormitory, spending it alone.

How could a dormitory ever feel like home?

But she never expected Cheng Zhu to follow up with what he said next.

His attitude was very straightforward.

"You don’t want to go back to that home, do you?

But you do want a home of your own, right?

Alright, then I’ll buy you one in Hang City."

At that moment, Chen Jieyu was truly stunned.

Ever since she had come to Hang City, she had been thinking about staying here.

And for most Chinese, staying in a city meant having a house of their own there.

However, even though it was just 2015, the housing prices in Hang City were not low at all.

To her, it was a distant goal.

To be precise, for the vast majority of people, buying a house on their own is an immensely difficult task.

Cheng Zhu then simply pulled out his card and made a statement: "You’ve always wanted a home, right? You go buy one yourself."

It was an undeniably aggressive move.

Seeing Chen Jieyu dumbstruck on the spot, he didn’t say much else and started the car, driving off away from the school.

Along the way, he offered his personal advice.

"I think, go for a fully furnished one, it’s less hassle."

"There are some fully furnished properties available in Hang City, you can see if you like the style when the time comes."

"If you don’t like the decoration style, you can always make small changes afterward."

"Also, I think it’s better to buy something closer to the school. I see there’s a fully furnished property nearby, let’s go take a look at the 148 square meter ones."

He kept driving and talking to himself, even if Chen Jieyu didn’t say a word, he never stopped talking.

"Don’t think the 148 square meters is too small. In principle, a larger flat is definitely more comfortable to live in, but if there aren’t many people in the household, it can feel a bit empty, wouldn’t you say?"

"Anything smaller, I feel is too meager, not interesting at all."

The Land Rover sped along the road, and as he waited at the traffic light, he turned to glance at Chen Jieyu, who was slightly bowing her head in silence.

He could probably guess the extremely complex emotions and thoughts in her heart.

Therefore, the man deliberately teased playfully, "What’s wrong? Were you wounded by my overbearing CEO vibe? Or are you so touched that pearls might fall from your eyes?"

In such situations, being jestful was always the most effective approach.

"Cheng Zhu, let’s not go," said Chen Jieyu at that moment. "You really don’t need to go to such lengths for me."

Hearing this, Cheng Zhu laughed.

"You just don’t get it! The money we rich people have can’t just keep lying in an account collecting interest. Buying a house is a fairly safe investment, and I can tell you with confidence that in the next few years, property prices in Hang City are going to soar."

"Buy early and enjoy early, buy late and your heart will ache."

"Me, Such a big boss, letting you stay in the faculty dormitory, does that sound right?" he analyzed seriously while continuing to interject humor.

Chen Jieyu pursed her lips tightly, unsure of what to say.

Honestly, her heart had truly been deeply touched by Cheng Zhu just moments ago.

Home, after all, was her weakness.

And it was a lifelong weakness!

Giving a house as a gift was an impressive feat, and yet this "Master of Coercion + Grandmaster" had an incredible knack for timing, especially choosing right before the New Year.

He always managed to strike when Chen Jieyu’s defenses were at zero, delivering a devastating blow with critical damage.

Both material and emotional value were maxed out.

Even if no purchase was made in the end, any woman would be deeply moved and unwaveringly devoted to him.

How could any female cadre withstand such a test?

If this sort of event got posted online, never mind women, even men would go crazy in the comments:

"Brother, do you like men?"

"Brother, can it be a man?"

"Brother, give a man a try?"

Cheng Zhu drove, taking a turn at the junction ahead, and said, "You don’t need to think so much. Just consider that we’re casually looking today."

He had plenty of experience buying houses; he knew very well there’s no such thing as just casually looking at houses.

The car stopped at Green City Rose Garden, and the real estate agent he had arranged a meeting with immediately came to greet them.

This was an attractive woman named He Jiale. Upon seeing Cheng Zhu and Chen Jieyu, she was dazzled for a moment by their outstanding looks.

A handsome man and a beautiful woman together would always attract attention wherever they went.

Usually, she would assume such a pair to be a couple or married, coming to purchase a marital home.

However, there was something quite special in the aura of this man and woman.

The man was rakishly handsome, while the woman wore gold-rimmed glasses, with a touch of seriousness.

It gave off a curious sense of a bad boy and a reserved serious woman getting together.

Quite like a romance novel coming to life.

"Hello, you must be Mr. Cheng?" greeted He Jiale stepping forward.

"Yes," Cheng Zhu nodded.

He Jiale then greeted Chen Jieyu and introduced herself.

Afterward, she sweetly complimented, "Mr. Cheng, your wife is really beautiful and has such a dignified presence."

At those words, a bit of the sternness on Chen Jieyu’s face dissolved, but she was not quite sure how to respond.
