Chapter 260 Private Manor
Ning Xiuyang listened as he drove.
He suddenly spoke, asking casually, "You're quite familiar with Zheng Wenxin, the guy at the door just now?"
Meng Yujin's heart skipped a beat, wondering why Ning Xiuyang would suddenly ask this.
Could it be... that they are actually friends, and what happened just now was just a joke between friends?
A warning bell rang in her mind, and she dared not make any definitive statements.
As a woman from a humble background, but with excellent personal qualities, beautiful looks, and a good figure, Meng Yujin has always been very cautious.
Because she knew very well that these so-called celebrities in high society were all black-hearted, and once they set their sights on you, it would be very difficult to shake them off.
Over the years, she has seen far too many young women, some drawn to the flame like moths to a flame, others seeking attention. Beneath the seemingly glamorous surface lies the betrayal and fall of their souls, and once they realize it, it is difficult to extricate themselves.
"No...we're not that close."
Meng Yujin carefully chose her words and replied cautiously, "His uncle is the owner of Villa No. 6, Mr. Zheng Qiangsheng. He has had several contacts with Young Master Zheng due to work."
Her answer was watertight, clarifying the relationship while distancing herself from the situation.
Ning Xiuyang saw the fleeting tension and worry on her face in the rearview mirror and understood.
It seems this woman is hiding something.
Moreover, this matter is most likely related to the Zheng family.
He smiled slightly and adopted a relaxed tone.
"I really don't like Zheng Wenxin."
"We had a little disagreement at a party yesterday."
Upon hearing this, Meng Yujin suddenly raised her head, a look of shock and disbelief flashing in her eyes.
So... they weren't friends, but enemies?
Then wouldn't my earlier concerns have been...
"His uncle, Zheng Qiangsheng, isn't much better, is he?"
Ning Xiuyang continued speaking in a nonchalant manner, as if he were just having a casual chat.
Meng Yujin's heart was in complete turmoil.
She hadn't expected Ning Xiuyang to be so direct.
Is he... testing me?
Or... do you want to stand up for yourself?
A tremendous temptation was placed before her.
If, if we could get this important person's help, we could get rid of that lecherous old man, Zheng Qiangsheng...
But what if I misunderstand?
If I offend this newly appointed homeowner, I might lose my job.
She was torn between her inner thoughts and her own conscience.
Reason told her not to meddle in other people's business and not to get herself into trouble.
But the dire reality forced her to try and grasp at this piece of driftwood that might be her lifeline.
Ning Xiuyang noticed her hesitation and struggle, but he didn't press her.
He smiled and changed the subject.
"Forget it, let's not talk about these unpleasant things."
"Take me a good look at my new home."
Seeing that Ning Xiuyang was no longer asking questions, Meng Yujin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but a sense of loss inexplicably welled up in her heart.
She forced herself to stay alert and put on a professional smile again.
"Okay, Mr. Ning."
"Your Villa No. 9, 'Cloud Top Palace,' is located at the highest point in the entire Fragrant Hills, offering the best view."
As the vehicle wound its way up the mountain road, the surrounding vegetation grew increasingly lush, and the air became increasingly fresh.
Soon, a magnificent manor, seemingly standing on top of the clouds, came into view.
That is Villa No. 9, the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds!
As the Luman G slowly drove into the private driveway that resembled a palace gate, even though Ning Xiuyang was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the sight before him.
This can no longer be called a villa.
This is clearly a private estate!
The vast land, covering more than five acres, is enclosed by a white marble wall over two meters high, and outside is a lush private forest, keeping all prying eyes out.
The main building is a magnificent structure that blends modern minimalism with Chinese elegance. It is constructed entirely of expensive white marble and huge floor-to-ceiling windows, shimmering in the sunlight like a city in the sky.
Meng Yujin guided the car to the underground temperature and humidity-controlled garage.
This enormous space, which could easily accommodate more than thirty luxury cars, was now completely empty, making it appear even more vast.
"Mr. Ning, let's start our tour from the basement level."
Meng Yujin got out of the car and respectfully opened the car door for Ning Xiuyang.
"In addition to the garage, there is a private cinema, a wine cellar, a gym, and an indoor heated swimming pool."
She introduced the exhibits while leading Ning Xiuyang on a tour.
That private cinema boasts a giant screen and sound system comparable to a top-tier IMAX theater, along with twenty genuine leather sofa seats, making it perfect for hosting private movie parties at any time.
In the wine cellar, rows of expensive oak wine racks are already filled with top-quality wines from all over the world, including rare gems worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars a bottle.
These are all included as a bonus from the system.
Ning Xiuyang was secretly astonished; just one bottle of this wine was enough for an ordinary person to work hard for several years.
The indoor heated swimming pool is the epitome of luxury.
The entire pool wall was paved with blue starry marble, which, when reflected in the water, seemed to contain the entire dazzling galaxy.
"The design concept here is called 'Reaching for the Stars'," Meng Yujin explained at the opportune moment.
After visiting the basement level, the two took the internal sightseeing elevator to the ground floor.
"The first floor is mainly a public activity area."
Meng Yujin's voice carried a hint of barely perceptible tension and deep concern.
"There is a central living room with a ceiling height of over ten meters, a banquet hall that can accommodate thirty people at the same time, and an open-plan Chinese and Western kitchen."
Ning Xiuyang stood in the center of the huge atrium living room, looking up at the giant chandelier made of tens of thousands of crystals hanging from the dome, and felt dizzy and mesmerized.
This is what life is all about!
He had even started imagining bringing Shen Yourong, Cheng Qingxia, Bai Xiaoji, and the others over to live in this huge living room every day, playing some indescribable games...
Just imagining that scene is enough to get your blood pumping.
Meng Yujin had no idea what was going on in Ning Xiuyang's head; she was just keeping her own thoughts to herself and dutifully explaining things to him.
"The villa's backyard is a private garden covering more than 2,000 square meters, which includes an outdoor infinity pool and a standard-sized tennis court."
"The most luxurious designs are those on the rooftops of villas."
She led Ning Xiuyang all the way to the top floor of the villa.
When the elevator doors opened and the view from the top floor came into view, Ning Xiuyang's breath hitched again.
The entire top floor is actually an open-air helipad made of reinforced glass!
In the center of the tarmac, there is even a large "H" sign painted on it.
"Mr. Ning, this is your private helipad."
