Chapter 613 - 613: Does It Have to Be This Exaggerated?

Meanwhile, at the real estate agency, Mu Han was anxiously waiting for Zhao Yuan to arrive.

The villa's owner had arrived some time ago and was in the reception room, scrolling through his phone.

The manager, who placed great importance on this deal, urged, "Mu Han, it's almost the appointment time. Why isn't your client here yet? Give him a call and ask where he is."

"Okay, Manager. I'll call him right now," Mu Han replied. She took out her phone, found Zhao Yuan's number, and dialed.

Tan Xiong snorted, then said gloatingly, "The way I see it, that kid isn't serious about buying a house at all. A villa for over fifty million? Paying in full? No matter how rich someone is, no matter how much of a tycoon, you don't just throw money around like that. That girl, Mu Han, is still too young."

The moment he finished speaking, he heard Mu Han, holding her phone, exclaim with pleasant surprise, "Ah? Mr. Zhao, you've arrived? I'll come out to get you right away."

"Huh? Arrived?" Tan Xiong was stunned.

'This isn't how it's supposed to go! How could that kid have arrived? Wasn't he just messing with Mu Han?'

His colleagues nearby had not only heard his earlier gloating but also saw his current dumbfounded expression. They burst out laughing and teased, "Tan Xiong, looks like things didn't go as you expected. Hey, you know what? From now on, we should just call you Tan Mingdeng."

Hearing his colleagues' words, Tan Xiong's expression turned incredibly ugly. But he couldn't refute them; he could only swallow his anger and bear it alone.

Mu Han quickly walked out of the real estate agency, and a moment later, she led Zhao Yuan, Lin Xue, and the Bone Woman inside.

Seeing that Zhao Yuan had another female companion with him—one who was just as beautiful as the Bone Woman but with a completely different style and temperament—the property consultants in the agency were all utterly shocked.

The men, in particular, were green with envy and filled with admiration for Zhao Yuan.

'Holy cow. One secretary was already gorgeous and full of class, and today he brings another beauty who's just as pretty and even younger! What's this guy's deal? Why is he always surrounded by so many beautiful women?'

'These two beauties each have their own charm. I'd die of happiness if just one of them gave me the time of day, but he's got one on each arm. It's so demoralizing!'

'This dude is incredible. A total Casanova!'

Obviously, this group of shameless guys had completely misunderstood the relationship between Zhao Yuan and his two companions.

However, they were muttering all this internally. Zhao Yuan didn't have a Mind Reading Technique, so he had no idea what they were thinking. He just found their stares to be extremely odd.

After glancing at the crowd, Zhao Yuan followed Mu Han into the reception room.

"So, are you renting a place?" Lin Xue asked in a low voice as they walked.

"Not renting, buying," Zhao Yuan replied quietly.

"Buying?" Lin Xue was a little surprised, but she quickly put it together.

She knew that the Soul-Stabilizing Incense, Beauty Pills, and Vitality Pills that were currently all the rage in Rongcheng City were all businesses under Zhao Yuan. Her father had even stocked products from Zhao Yuan's pharmaceutical factory to sell in his supermarket. According to her dad, these health products had significantly boosted their store's sales.

From this, she knew that Zhao Yuan had definitely earned a lot of money and had the funds to buy a house.

So Lin Xue didn't question it. Instead, she said, "Buying a house is a great idea. Whether you live in it or use it as an investment, it's a good choice. Oh, right, where are you planning to buy? Have you seen the place? I get it now, this is what you were busy with yesterday, wasn't it?"

"Clever girl," Zhao Yuan nodded. "I already saw the house yesterday and was very happy with it. Today, I'm meeting the owner to sign the contract. After it's signed, I'll take you to see it, and then we can meet with the designer so you can tell her your ideas and what you like."

Lin Xue's face flushed, and she asked, feigning ignorance, "Why do you need to know my ideas and preferences?"

Zhao Yuan smiled, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "Because you're the lady of the house."

Lin Xue's face grew even redder, but her heart was pounding with excitement and joy.

Zhao Yuan and Lin Xue were speaking very quietly, so Mu Han didn't notice their public display of affection behind her.

Upon entering the reception room, Mu Han began to make the introductions. "Mr. Zhao, allow me to introduce you. This is the homeowner..."

To her utter astonishment, before she could finish her sentence, the homeowner shot to his feet, enthusiastically grabbed both of Zhao Yuan's hands, and, while shaking them, exclaimed, "Mr. Zhao, so you're the one buying the house!"

"And you are...?" Zhao Yuan was taken aback. He genuinely didn't recognize the middle-aged man before him.

"My apologies, I haven't even introduced myself." The homeowner gave an embarrassed laugh and said, "I am Ying Chen, Ying Ji's uncle. I had the honor of seeing you once before when you were a guest at the Ying Family estate. It's just a shame I wasn't fortunate enough to receive one of the elixirs you sold to our family."

Without a doubt, Ying Chen was referring to the Marrow Cleansing Pills. Unfortunately, the Ying Family Ancestor had given all of those elixirs to the younger members of the family.

But upon seeing Zhao Yuan, a spark of hope was rekindled in Ying Chen. He said, "Mr. Zhao, I don't suppose you could sell me one of those elixirs? I'm willing to waive half the price of the house!"

Because there were outsiders present, he couldn't explicitly state which elixir he meant, but he was certain Zhao Yuan would understand.

Hearing this, both Mu Han and the manager were dumbstruck.

They knew full well that the villa being sold today was valued at over fifty million. Waiving half of that was twenty-five million!

'What kind of medicine could possibly be worth that much?'

At the same time, the manager's heart ached. If the homeowner really waived half the price, their commission would be drastically reduced.

"Alright," Zhao Yuan said. Of course, he wasn't going to refuse such a request.

The Marrow Cleansing Pills he sold to the Ying Family went for twenty million each. Selling one to Ying Chen would net him several million more. Why wouldn't he agree?

Then, he smiled at Mu Han and said, "Don't worry, you'll still get your full commission, not a penny less. We'll still list the transaction price as fifty million on the contract. I'm not concerned about the extra fees and taxes."

It was an incredible flex, leaving the manager and Mu Han both shocked and overjoyed.

"Fifty million? Zhao Yuan, what kind of house are you buying?" Lin Xue was floored by the price tag.

She had originally assumed Zhao Yuan was buying a house for a million or so, but the reality was so drastically different from her expectations. 'And what kind of medicine sells for over twenty million? That's insane!'

Meanwhile, a question also formed in Zhao Yuan's mind.

'Ying Chen is a Cultivator. If so, why would he be willing to sell a villa that's practically a Blessed Land?'
