Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!-Chapter 962 - 409: The Truly Wealthy
Chapter 962 -409: The Truly Wealthy
Zhou Yuwen, in his previous life, was at most considered middle class, still a bit away from being a tycoon, so for Zhou Yuwen, driving a BMW X7 was already sufficient, and Zhou Yuwen felt the X7 was definitely presentable.
But in front of true tycoons, it wasn’t quite enough.
Well, it’s not that it’s not enough, it’s just that Tang Xinrou didn’t quite understand when she saw Zhou Yuwen driving an X7.
While driving Jiang Xinyi and the others to the estate of Tang Xinrou’s family, Tang Xinrou curiously asked if Zhou Yuwen was really nineteen years old.
This question startled Zhou Yuwen a bit, and he chuckled lightly, saying, “If I’m not nineteen, then am I thirty?”
Tang Xinrou chuckled softly and said, “Mainly, brother-in-law, driving this car makes you seem a bit too mature. My friends drive cars like Maseratis and Lamborghinis at your age.”
Zhou Yuwen had no idea how to respond to this, so after a while, he just said, “No choice, brother-in-law and you all are different, family roots are deep.”
“The money in brother-in-law’s hands comes from earning every penny himself.”
Tang Xinrou covered her mouth and laughed when she heard this, saying, “You’re joking, brother-in-law. I just heard that your company sold for over 20 million. You’re richer than we are! Brother-in-law, with this money coming in, you should get a Maserati for fun!”
Zhou Yuwen just smiled at these words, focusing on driving and not saying anything further.
Jiang Xinyi feared Tang Xinrou might feel awkward, so she chimed in, saying one car is enough for driving, why buy so many?
“Well, it’s not the same!” Tang Xinrou continued chatting with Jiang Xinyi.
The ensuing conversation was mostly between the two sisters chatting, and Zhou Yuwen didn’t chime in; the topics weren’t particularly substantial, like how Tang Xinrou would say cars are a man’s face, and what cars suit different occasions.
“My dad has over a dozen cars, and a successful person like my brother-in-law should buy a few more cars too!”
If Zhou Yuwen wanted to respond to this, he certainly could, but there was no need.
So they drove steadily all the way to the estate; the private estate was located near Qixia Mountain, built backing onto a mountain with a river in front, and it was currently April, with roses in full bloom.
Zhou Yuwen drove along a one-way road, with the black iron fence of the private estate on one side, densely entwined with rose vines.
After driving for quite some time, Tang Xinrou finally said it was just up ahead.
It was only then that Zhou Yuwen realized this was Tang Xinrou’s family estate.
Tang Xinrou made a phone call to her home, and then the tightly closed gate was opened by two people, and Zhou Yuwen’s car drove in.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Zhou Yuwen’s villa was already an unattainable peak in their lifetime, but compared to this place, it was like something insignificant in the face of something grand.
Once the car drove in, the view suddenly opened up.
Whether it was the neatly paved asphalt road, the garden design on the left, or the pond fountain on the right, everything was flowing smoothly.
Everything here belonged to a private domain.
The main building of the estate was a two-story Western-style house, with a bit of a Republic of China architectural style.
Following the guidance, Zhou Yuwen drove the car to the back of the house and found there was another house behind, with the two houses connected by a long corridor, with over a dozen parking spaces beside the corridor.
Currently, seven or eight luxury cars were parked in the spaces, most of which were worth around a million each.
Jiang Xinyi had actually been here a couple of times, but she was already used to such private estates. As for Zhou Yuwen, it wasn’t shocking, but it was indeed the first time he had seen it.
There was a butler who came to greet Tang Xinrou and then led the three of them into the house, while Jiang Xinyi whispered to Zhou Yuwen at the back.
She said this piece of land was approved by Tang Xinrou’s dad a few years ago through connections and spending money, costing over three hundred million in total.
Actually, it wasn’t anything great, it was just that Tang Xinrou’s family had a nouveau riche mentality, bringing people over whenever they had the chance, as if others didn’t have it.
In a low voice, Zhou Yuwen told Jiang Xinyi, “I truly don’t have it.”
Jiang Xinyi rolled her eyes at Zhou Yuwen.
Tang Xinrou talked to the butler briefly, then turned to ask Jiang Xinyi and Zhou Yuwen what they wanted to do.
“There’s a bathhouse here, with sauna and foot baths, and a karaoke room. Brother-in-law, you’re so good at playing the piano, you must be good at singing too, right?” Tang Xinrou said, blinking her big eyes.
Zhou Yuwen said, “I’m just okay.”
“Eh? So modest, then shall we go singing later?”
Tang Xinrou sought Zhou Yuwen’s opinion, but Zhou Yuwen suggested to skip it.
“I’ve been busy all morning, quite tired, your yard looks beautiful, why don’t we take a walk around the yard?”
“Alright.”
The estate wasn’t actually that large, with the yard covering about three acres, designed as a small garden in the front, and some peach, pear, and pomegranate trees planted in the back, all tended by dedicated personnel.
Tang Xinrou took Zhou Yuwen and the others for a walk, and upon returning, they saw Liu Jing and Sun Juan playing mahjong on the second floor outside.
The design of the estate was originally small Western-style houses on the second floor, with an open terrace making it very bright, and even the mahjong room seemed spacious.
While Zhou Yuwen and the two girls were walking outside, Sun Juan spotted them from afar inside the house and quickly waved at the three of them.
So the three of them entered the house.
There they saw four noblewomen skillfully playing cards while chatting.
