Chapter 986 Castle Master
The production crew wanted to follow, but were stopped.
Just then, it was time to turn off the live stream. The cameramen who had been filming had no choice but to reluctantly shut down their cameras and follow the male and female servants who had appeared behind them at some point downstairs to the accommodations arranged for them by the housekeeper.
Butler Phil led the two of them for a while before stopping in front of a bedroom door. He opened the door for them personally and said respectfully, "This is your room. Please come in."
Ye Wanxi glanced into the room and immediately noticed that it was unusually large, much larger than the rooms arranged for Zhao Yun'er and the others downstairs.
"Thank you, we need to rest now, you should go back and rest too."
"Yes, please feel free to call me if you need anything." After saying this, Butler Phil respectfully bowed to the two of them before turning to leave.
Upon entering the house, Ye Wanxi discovered that it was not only large but also quite well-equipped, with a separate dressing room, a washroom, and a separate dressing room.
"This room..."
As if knowing what Ye Wanxi wanted to ask, Feng Tianyu stepped forward, put his arm around her waist, and chuckled, "Is this the master bedroom?"
Her suspicions were confirmed, and Ye Wanxi turned to look at him: "Did you tell him?"
It was obvious who "he" was referring to, but Feng Tianyu shook his head: "I only told him we were coming; everything else was arranged by him."
"Including the fireworks at night and that plate of osmanthus cake?"
"The fireworks were for everyone. As for the osmanthus cake, I just told him that he liked it."
Ye Wanxi's eyes flickered slightly, and she quickly understood.
The last time I went to Yang Family Garden, this guy chose to stand by and watch without giving me any hints, all for the sake of "fairness".
This time was no different. However, this time, he did do something, but instead chose to subtly get the butler to help him achieve his less obvious goals.
After Feng Tianyu finished speaking, he asked in a low voice, "Are you satisfied?"
"Which one are you referring to? The people in the castle, the castle itself, or perhaps... this island?"
As Ye Wanxi finished speaking, she turned around and looked at her senior brother with a half-smile.
Zhao Yun'er and the others probably never imagined that the person who spent a huge sum of money to auction off this island last year and took everything on it for himself was both far away and right in front of them.
However, not long after that, the island changed hands and was given to Ye Wanxi as a housewarming gift.
Therefore, the true owner of this island and even this castle is Ye Wanxi.
Ye Wanxi still remembers that just two days after moving to her new home, Guan Xianshi suddenly contacted her and told her that the transfer of ownership of the island had been completed and that she could come to the island to live and play at any time.
Ye Wanxi was completely bewildered when she heard this. An island? What island? When did she acquire an island under her name?
It wasn't until the other party painstakingly explained that Ye Wanxi realized that the key-like object that Feng Tianyu had given her that day was the badge and certificate of the island beneath her feet.
Her eldest brother gave her an island!
After being bombarded with gifts of mansions, sports cars, and luxury watches, Ye Wanxi was still shocked by her senior brother's extravagant spending and had the idea of ​​returning the gifts.
Unexpectedly, Guan Xuanshi was shocked when he learned of her plan, and it took him half a day to dissuade her from the idea.
At the same time, it also made Ye Wanxi realize that the reason why her senior brother gave her this island was because he had wanted to give her a house several times before, but her second senior brother had beaten him to it. He was unhappy about this, so he held his breath and deliberately gave her such a big gift to compete with her second senior brother.
Upon learning the truth, Ye Wanxi was speechless: "..." Are you all elementary school students? You even have to compete in this!
The island was not ultimately returned, of course. Moreover, after learning of her son's heroic act, Feng's mother found an excuse to give her another yacht.
They put it this way: "We already have an island, so how can we get there without a yacht?"
Therefore, the yacht that carried Gu Shaoling and the others in the afternoon also belonged to Ye Wanxi.
"I'm satisfied with everything. Were they originally residents of this castle, or did you find them later?"
"They originally lived here. This castle was originally the property of the D country's royal family. Later, the royal family was overthrown and a new royal family was established. This island then became the property of the previous royal family and was used by the new royal family to win over their subordinates. Over the next hundred years, the island passed through the hands of several nobles."
Ye Wanxi looked surprised, not expecting the island to have such a background: "If that's the case, why was this island auctioned off?"
"The last owner of this island inherited it thirty years ago. At that time, his family was a prominent family in D country. Unfortunately, the descendants were incompetent, and the family business was ruined by schemes, leaving only this island. At that time, many people had their eyes on this island, and a few even joined forces to put pressure on the original owner, trying to get him to sell it at a low price."
"The original owner was furious, so he put the item up for auction. Those people then secretly tampered with the auction, warning other bidders not to compete with them, trying to drive the price down. Everything was arranged, and they almost succeeded."
Ye Wanxi narrowed her eyes slightly and chuckled, "But you snatched it away?"
"Yes. They are too arrogant, thinking that with their status and position, no one would dare to oppose them. This arrogance just happens to benefit me."
To be honest, Fengtianyu offered a much lower price than the island's actual value, so they got a great deal.
Unfortunately, the island's original owner had been angered by those ambitious nobles, and later learned that they were secretly trying to lower the price, leaving him seething with resentment.
Therefore, even though he knew he was losing money at this price, he was happy as long as the island didn't fall into the hands of his mortal enemies.
Those people probably never expected that the fight between the snipe and the clam would ultimately benefit Feng Tianyu, the fisherman hiding in the shadows.
The handover of the island went very smoothly. The original owner did not raise the price and even offered some discounts. There was only one condition: that the people who originally worked in the castle stay and be treated well.
Feng Tianyu did not agree rashly. After all, he had bought the island to give to his beloved. What if there were a few annoying idiots among the people left behind? Wouldn't that go against his original intention of giving the gift?
He personally investigated these people and only agreed to the island owner's request after confirming their character and abilities.
That's why the gift was a couple of days late.
After hearing her senior brother's explanation, Ye Wanxi frowned: "You just took this island like that, and those people didn't even react?"
As the saying goes, even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. From Feng Tianyu's words just now, one can guess that those people who want the island are not of good character and their methods may not be clean.
Would they be willing to let such a lucrative opportunity slip away?
