Chapter 308: Chapter 308: Chaos in Sunset Town_1

"If you’re tired, let’s take a break!"

Mu Cheng had planned to set off right away as it was quite a distance from Qujiang to Sunset Town.

But seeing that Fu Meiting, Wen Yulan, and Dong Qian had been in the car for a day and a half and seemed exhausted, she wasn’t in a hurry anymore. Instead, she started showing the women around Qujiang.

Zhang Xian didn’t want to shop and didn’t know what it felt like to be tired.

But since the three ladies needed to rest before leaving, he had no choice but to accompany them.

As such, they ended up shopping until evening. Only then did the three ladies, still not satisfied, decide to have dinner at a restaurant.

After dinner, Mu Cheng opened the door of the Audi and said, "Zhang Xian, you follow me in your car. We still have quite a distance to cover, and it might be difficult to navigate at night. I estimate we’ll only arrive by midnight."

"Really? Isn’t Sunset Town very remote then?" Fu Meiting asked in surprise.

She had followed Zhang Xian here, initially for the fun of being with him but also hoping to enjoy a little sightseeing.

If Sunset Town was too isolated and had nothing to offer, what would they do for fun?

Dong Qian and Duan Hong were also worried. Zhang Xian had business to attend to and couldn’t always be with them. What would they do for entertainment if there was nothing there?

"Remote?" Mu Cheng laughed, "Maybe! But you’ll know the specifics once you get there. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed."

Zhang Xian didn’t care much as his purpose was not to sightsee in Sunset Town. He simply got into the driver’s seat.

After exchanging glances, Duan Hong, Fu Meiting, and Dong Qian one after the other got into the BMW.

The Audi slowly started, leading the way.

The BMW trailed behind, maintaining a certain distance.

After a while, the Audi left the city and entered the country road. The houses gradually became fewer as the mountain road became increasingly winding, like they were entering deep into the mountains.

"Where... where are we heading?" Fu Meiting looked upset.

Duan Hong also said, "I think we’re going into the mountains. But the road is surprisingly good. It’s smooth all the way."

"Yeah, the highway is pretty decent." Dong Qian agreed, "Do you think Sunset Town might actually be prosperous even though it’s remote? Otherwise, how could they afford such a highway? We’ve already covered dozens of miles in. It’s not likely the government built this, especially when you can’t even find Sunset Town on the navigation."

Zhang Xian said, "Is it necessary to fret this much? We’ll know what it’s like when we get there. Anyway, for now, none of you can go back."

Fu Meiting responded irritatedly, "You have something to do, so of course you don’t care! What about us?"

Zhang Xian turned to her, "Elder Sister Meiting, I didn’t ask you to come here. You decided to come on your own. If it’s not fun, you can’t blame me. Originally, I only invited Qianqian and Elder Sister Hong."

"You... I’m pissed off." Fu Meiting was livid.

These days she had deliberately avoided Zhang Xian’s touch to annoy him because he planned to leave her behind in Tiandu.

Though she knew Zhang Xian was joking, she was still irritated and wanted to upset him in return.

Today, as Zhang Xian spoke in such a manner, she almost exploded with fury.

Zhang Xian, having understood why Fu Meiting was acting up these past few days, showed no signs of backing down. He enjoyed their little quarrels, which added a touch of romance to their relationship.

Duan Hong looked at Zhang Xian and Fu Meiting, on the brink of saying something but too embarrassed to speak, uncertain about the situation.

Dong Qian didn’t really bother. Seeing the darkness outside, feeling drowsy, she dialed Mu Cheng’s number on her phone, "Elder Sister Cheng, how much longer until we arrive?"

"It’s still early! It’s only eleven o’clock; we have at least two more hours to go."

Dong Qian was taken aback, "What? Still that long?"

...

By the time it was past two in the morning, the world was deep in slumber.

Within the vast mountains, a bustling town nestled in a giant hollow seemed like a sleeping beast, awaiting the break of dawn.

"This..."

As an Audi and a BMW entered the town, the three women in the BMW were stunned.

They had initially thought of Sunset Town as a shabby and backward place, considering its location in the mountains. But after arriving, they got a shock – Sunset Town was actually quite prosperous.

At a glance, Sunset Town seemed very similar to other small towns with no high skyscrapers. But the architecture of the houses was undoubtedly high-end and very beautiful.

White walls and red tiles, exquisite carvings, and artwork; it was quaint yet grand, simple yet stylish. A row of similarly styled houses gave a very harmonious feeling.

"Wow, it seems like Sunset Town is quite wealthy!"

Zhang Xian laughed, "So now, you three don’t have to worry about having nowhere to have fun, right? With the wealthy Elder Sister Cheng here, I guarantee she’ll make sure you have a blast."

Fu Meiting, Duan Hong, and Dong Qian all laughed happily. Their previous fatigue seemed to dissipate at that moment.

In this mountainous region, there exists such a bustling town. It must have its own unique features, right? Could there be some new things to catch their eyes? It would make their long journey worth their while.

"Squeak..."

Suddenly, the Audi stopped in front of a two-story white building.

"Rumble..."

As the automatic iron gate slowly opened, the Audi made a turn and slowly drove in.

Zhang Xian knew this must be Mu Cheng’s home. He followed in and exclaimed, "Wow! Elder Sister Cheng sure is rich! She even lives in a western-style building!"

Dong Qian, Fu Meiting, and Duan Hong looked on in awe, "Wow, this little building is so beautiful, even better than the villas back home!"

After getting out of the car, Mu Cheng said, "Don’t tease me, it’s just a matter of architectural style. In terms of cost, you could build several buildings like mine for the price of one of your villas."

"Our villas are bigger! But they are not as beautiful as yours." Dong Qian remarked.

"Uh, let’s not discuss my building anymore, let’s go in, take a bath, and then rest early. Tomorrow I will take you all for a walk around town." Mu Cheng suggested, laughing.

Duan Hong, Fu Meiting, and Dong Qian nodded and walked into the villa, chatting and laughing. They seemed completely different from the listless figures they had been in the car.

Zhang Xian walked into the house and, after looking around a little, asked, "Elder Sister Cheng, there probably aren’t many rooms in this small building, right?"

"Why?" Mu Cheng asked with a smirk, "What’s the idea you’re spinning in your head?"

Zhang Xian grins and asks, "Is there one too few?"

"You’ll be disappointed." Mu Cheng says, "There are exactly five rooms in my house, two downstairs and three upstairs. It’s perfect for one person per room, your little scheme just went down the drain."

Zhang Xian rubbed his nose, "Elder Sister Cheng, what do you mean by my scheme going to waste? Wasn’t I just worried that there wouldn’t be enough rooms for everybody to sleep in? I’m innocent."

"You’re innocent?" Mu Cheng looked Zhang Xian up and down, "Where exactly are you innocent? How come I haven’t noticed it?"

Zhang Xian pouted, "Every inch of me is innocent. I was born for innocence."

"Alright, you continue to indulge in self-admiration here. I’m going to help them tidy up their rooms." Mu Cheng laughed lightly before turning and heading upstairs.

Zhang Xian sat on the sofa, lit up a cigarette, and mumbled, "Ah, why couldn’t there be one room less? Why on earth are there five rooms in this little building?"

...

On the following day, Mu Cheng didn’t bring up the issue of medicinal herbs and started to hang out with Zhang Xian and others on the street instead.

When they arrived in Sunset Town, it was over two o’clock in the morning, and there wasn’t a soul on the streets. Today when they stepped out, Zhang Xian and the others were surprised once again.

Not only was Sunset Town bustling, but there were also a lot of people, many from other places.

As a result, Zhang Xian became somewhat curious.

On their way over, he found that local property prices were incredibly high, even higher than prime locations in big cities.

The strangest thing was that despite such high property prices, there were no houses for sale. Real estate developers were constantly expanding around, and intending to increase the coverage of Sunset Town.

With such high property prices and remote location, why was Sunset Town so popular?

As if sensing Zhang Xian’s confusion, Mu Cheng explained, "Over here, we’re not managed by the government, and everything depends on our own efforts. Therefore, there are many rich people who like to come here, it’s a paradise for the wealthy and a hell for ordinary people. If you’re just an ordinary person, you’ll need a powerful backing to live here, otherwise, you’ll have no idea how you died."

"Does that mean it’s very chaotic here?" asked Zhang Xian, "Since Sunset Town is not governed by officials, are you guys planning to separate it and make it independent?"

"How could that be possible? Could our tiny place of this size become independent? We don’t even have an army," Mu Cheng explained, "The reason nobody manages us is partly because we’re too far away. Qujiang doesn’t have the energy to come all the way out to these mountains. On the other hand, there are so many rich people here, it’s in the interest of those in Qujiang to let things be."

Zhang Xian nodded in understanding.

Being located in such a remote place, it was hard to control. Seeing the numerous benefits, no one wanted to upset the situation here.

As a result, over time, this place had become a paradise for the wealthy.

"Huh? Your local clothing is quite unique!" Suddenly, Fu Meiting had taken an interest in the clothes from a clothing store.

From a distance, the styles of clothing here, while not too far removed from conventional fashion, were quite different and seemed rather alternative.

Mu Cheng laughed, "The clothes here go for an alternative style, mostly quirky, which is quite popular in Sunset Town. Of course, there are also some beautiful pieces amongst them!"

"Zhang Xian..." Fu Meiting suddenly turned around, "I want you to buy me clothes."

Zhang Xian said, "Uh, don’t you have money? Just buy them yourself! I don’t have any money."

Fu Meiting had forgotten that Zhang Xian was out of money. She pouted in annoyance and pulled Dong Qian and Duan Hong into the clothing store.

"Yo..."

At that moment, a young man from the shop came over and greeted, "Isn’t this Miss Mu? Are you here to buy clothes?"
