Chapter 70: Thirty Million Villa
Everything was settled, and Shen Linglan got Director Chen's approval to live off campus as she wished, so she took Chen Mengxue back to the dormitory to pack her luggage.
When we opened the dormitory door, it was not yet time for lunch and the five of us were still lying in bed.
Chen Xiaohong poked her head towards the dormitory door, and when she found out it was Shen Linglan, she rolled her eyes and complained, "You didn't come back to sleep last night, and you came back so early today to wake us up. You're not letting us sleep, are you?"
"Hmm?" Shen Linglan glanced at Chen Xiaohong who was still lying on the bed and said bluntly, "Weren't you still complaining to Director Chen at seven in the morning? Are you feeling tired now?"
Chen Xiaohong became anxious when she heard this. She jumped up from the bed and pointed at Shen Linglan, saying that she was slandering her.
Shen Linglan was too lazy to argue with her, so she just stood in front of her desk, picked up her skin care products, and smashed all five or six bottles and jars to the ground, and they cracked in an instant.
"Shen Linglan! What are you doing!?"
Chen Xiaohong climbed off the bed anxiously and tried to push Shen Linglan away, but as soon as she raised her hand, Chen Mengxue grabbed it.
Chen Mengxue was half a head taller than Chen Xiaohong and was wearing a suit. Her aura was so overwhelming that Chen Xiaohong didn't dare to reach out again.
"You stole my stuff, and I don't want you to use it. Is it okay if it's broken?"
"I stole your things!?" Chen Xiaohong yelled, "Why would I steal your skin care products that I don't know whether they are real or fake?"
Even so, Chen Xiaohong still looked at the things on the ground with a painful look on her face. She was furious, but because of Chen Mengxue, she didn't dare to hit Shen Linglan. Instead, she stomped her feet and told the dormitory head, "Dorm head, please take care of this!"
Ever since the dormitory head noticed that Shen Linglan was different from before, he no longer dared to show any displeasure to her. Now he just stuck his head out to glance at her. Not to mention caring about Shen Linglan, he didn't even dare to say a word to her.
"Xiaohong, I noticed a couple of days ago that my honey water has also decreased a lot. Is it you too?"
Another roommate also stuck his head out and suddenly asked a question.
This made Chen Xiaohong very angry. She pointed at Shen Linglan and said she would report her to the counselor.
Shen Linglan shrugged, saying it was nothing, and asked Chen Mengxue to continue helping her pack her things.
While Chen Xiaohong was calling Director Chen, she angrily said, "All this stuff of mine costs hundreds of dollars! Shen Linglan, just wait for me!"
How many hundred yuan? Shen Linglan looked at the broken bottles on the ground. There were almost no normal brands there.
I remember that when she was a freshman and sophomore, Shen Linglan's only skin care products were winter lotions, nothing else. Chen Xiaohong, who used a cheap brand, could mock Shen Linglan for being poor, saying that poor people can't afford skin care products, and they will look as old as 30 in their early twenties.
Now, even though Shen Linglan can afford skin care products worth thousands or tens of thousands, she has never laughed at Chen Xiaohong for using cheap brand skin care products.
What she disliked was Chen Xiaohong's mocking and stealing behavior.
Unexpectedly, after Chen Xiaohong's skin care products were smashed, she burst into tears when she thought about the expensive skin care products that she had always wanted to buy but could not afford. As soon as she got through the phone, she told Director Chen that Shen Linglan smashed her things.
Chen Mengxue had already packed her things and was standing beside Shen Linglan waiting for her.
Before Shen Linglan left, Chen Xiaohong had just finished crying. I don’t know what Director Chen said. The moment before Shen Linglan closed the dormitory door, she heard Chen Xiaohong crying out in pain: “Why did you cancel my admission to graduate school!!!”
Shen Linglan slammed the door shut. This was Chen Xiaohong's own fault and had nothing to do with her anymore.
She was in a hurry to see the villa before noon.
Chen Mengxue has been with Shen Linglan for a while and has some understanding of Shen Linglan's preferences, so after looking at several villas, she chose the one that Shen Linglan would like the most.
This villa is different from those single-family villas with seven or eight floors. It is a courtyard. As you enter the door, you can see two osmanthus trees on both sides of the gate.
Looking inside, the tallest building has only three floors and is the main building for daily living. In front of the main building is an open-air reception hall, on the left is a long corridor with a pavilion at the end of the corridor, and on the right is a circular pool with a fountain in the center.
On the side of the corridor is a two-story annex building with huge floor-to-ceiling windows made of explosion-proof glass. The first floor is the restaurant and kitchen, and the second floor is the entertainment room, which is temporarily vacant.
There is a large open space behind the main courtyard, which is the back garden of the villa.
"Let's plant tulips and pink roses here." Before the contract was signed, Shen Linglan had already thought about what to plant and even felt that she could see a sea of flowers.
She likes pink roses and Zhao Yunduo likes tulips. When the flowers bloom, Shen Linglan will definitely take a picture and show it to her. No, she will let her see it with her own eyes in the video.
After walking around, Shen Linglan stepped into the main building. The first floor of the main building was the living room, which was only slightly smaller than the house that Shen Linglan bought last time for 6 million, at about 120 square meters.
"Buy two long sofas here, put a projector here, buy a cabinet here, and put some collections there. Put a table here, and a wine cabinet here."
As Shen Linglan was talking, Chen Mengxue was writing down everything on her tablet.
Going up to the second floor are the rooms. Each room has a bedroom and a bathroom. The bathroom is partitioned, with a bathtub at the back, a shower in the middle, and a toilet and sink at the outside.
Shen Linglan was planning to clean up two master bedrooms and a guest bedroom. Just like before, her master bedroom was painted pink, while Zhao Yunduo's was also a master bedroom, and her guest bedroom was painted blue.
Shen Linglan now knew that wealthy people did not go to shopping malls to buy four-piece suits, but went to specialty stores to order them. She also handed this matter over to Chen Mengxue.
As for the mattress, Shen Linglan remembered the gossip she had heard before, and specifically asked Chen Mengxue to buy two mattresses of the same model as the one the star had. She wanted to sleep on them to see how comfortable they were.
The third floor is the entertainment area, which can be used as a game room, yoga room and movie room.
Although the main building has only three floors, there is still an elevator that goes up to the fourth floor, where there is a swimming pool. On sunny days, it is an outdoor swimming pool. If it rains, press the switch and the folding roof on the side will cover the swimming pool, so you don't have to worry about being rained on.
After seeing everything in the villa courtyard, Shen Linglan was quite satisfied.
Although Zhao Yunduo was not brought on the video tour, Zhao Yunduo had been in touch with Shen Linglan and heard everything Shen Linglan said.
So when Chen Mengxue asked Shen Linglan whether she wanted to sign the contract, Shen Linglan also asked Zhao Yunduo in her mind: Duobaoer, what do you think?
Zhao Yunduo said: I can imagine that it is a house that I would like too.
Shen Linglan smiled when she heard this and said to Chen Mengxue, "I am very satisfied. Let's just ask the original owner to sign the contract."
"Do you need to bargain?" Chen Mengxue asked.
Chen Mengxue told her that there was no need to go through an agent, as the original owner wanted 30 million yuan.
This place is not far from the city. A villa in a first-tier city costs 30 million, which is slightly lower than Shen Linglan imagined. It is also close to the school, and it only takes half an hour to drive there.
Shen Linglan is very satisfied that she can park her car freely inside or outside the villa.
Shen Linglan shook her head and indicated that there was no need to bargain, 30 million was well worth it.
