Lu Jinye's expression was a mixture of helplessness and doting: "That won't work either. You need to change how you address me."
Jiang Zao tilted her head: "Then what should I call you?"
Lu Jinye spoke up, his tone slightly raised, yet sounding somewhat unserious: "Why don't you just call me brother?"
Jiang Zao glanced at him: "Rejected, next."
Lu Jinye's lips curled up slightly: "What... I'm older than you, what's wrong with calling me brother?"
Jiang Zao was speechless: "If your family knew you were like this..."
Lu Jinye asked curiously, "What?"
Jiang Zao: "Is it that flashy?"
Lu Jinye: "..."
"You're the first one..."
Jiang Zao laughed heartily: "Now you know."
Lu Jinye laughed and stopped teasing her: "Just call me by my name, don't call me Uncle Lu anymore, it makes me sound old."
Jiang Zao smiled and stopped teasing him: "Alright, Lu Jinye."
"If there's nothing else, I'll head home now."
Lu Jinye raised his hand to check the time: "Let's go together, I need to go home too."
Jiang Zao nodded: "Oh, by the way, which floor of building 18 do you live on? You got to my house so quickly last time."
Lu Jinye smiled and said, "18th floor."
Jiang Zao was slightly taken aback: "Right upstairs from my house!?"
Lu Jinye nodded: "Yes."
Jiang Zao: "What a coincidence! If my mom knew that her idol lived upstairs from me, she would go crazy."
Lu Jinye laughed out loud, finding it amusing.
Then I called Zhang Hao.
Tong Jiang said, "Let's wait a moment, the car will be here soon."
Jiang nodded early.
Once home, Jiang Zao ran to her bedroom.
System Xiaoqi then spoke: "Host, the basic tasks for this month have been completed. Would you like to claim your reward?"
Jiang Zao nodded: "I'll take it."
[Reward Pack]
One unit at No. 18 Yunchao Villa, Beijing
Zhengde Law Firm holds 70% of the shares.
Hermès One Thousand and One Nights diamond clutch and Hermès rose gold Kelly bag.
Reward points: points
System Xiaoqi: "Host, rewards have been distributed."
Jiang was already extremely curious.
First, open the two Hermès bags.
"Wow, it's really beautiful."
"But, Xiaoqi, how much did these two bags cost?"
The system's Xiaoqi introduces: "The Hermès Shalimar Diamond Handbag is priced at 25 million RMB. It is meticulously crafted with 4,517 diamonds, including precious yellow and pink diamonds. The entire production process took 8,800 hours."
"Another Hermès rose gold Kelly bag, priced at approximately 14 million RMB, is made of pure rose gold and decorated with 1,160 diamonds. Only 12 pieces were ever made, making it extremely luxurious."
Jiang Zao was stunned: "So, that means, these two bags are worth forty million?"
Jiang Zao flipped through it, then looked at it again: "But what gives it the right?!"
"This bag is so expensive, is there something wrong with it?!"
System Xiaoqi: "Um...it seems the host doesn't like this kind of reward?"
Jiang Zao shook her head: "Not really, she is very pretty, but maybe I haven't put myself in the role of a rich person yet. I'll get used to it after seeing more of her."
System Xiaoqi nodded silently: It seems that the rewards given to the host were not good enough. The rewards in the future should be more generous.
Jiang Zao had no idea that the system had so many internal monologues; her attention was already drawn to the remaining two rewards.
Jiang Zao: "Xiao Qi, I can't go to Yunchao Villa No. 18 right now. Do you have any videos or photos?"
System Xiaoqi: "Yes, there is also VR panoramic view that you can experience immersively."
Jiang Zao's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, yes!"
System Xiaoqi: "Host, please close your eyes."
Jiang Zao obediently closed her eyes.
System Xiaoqi: "Host, you can open your eyes now."
Jiang Zao slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw the scene before her, her eyes widened like copper bells.
"Xiaoqi... this is the VR function you were talking about!?"
System Xiaoqi: "Yes."
Jiang Zao rubbed her eyes: "My goodness, I thought VR renderings were the kind you see on a phone, but I never expected them to be this immersive! It's amazing!"
System Xiaoqi said arrogantly, "Hmph, you don't even know how powerful this system is."
Jiang Zao nodded: "Amazing! Amazing!"
Then he strolled around his villa.
This is a 2,800-square-meter villa located halfway up Fragrant Hills, with a 1,000-square-meter garden inside. The exterior design follows the currently popular minimalist modernist style.
Upon entering the villa, you'll find large floor-to-ceiling windows in the foyer, offering a clear view of the outside scenery and creating the illusion of a double-height space, making the room feel exceptionally bright and airy.
Black and white patterned tiles connect the entryway and the living room, and a metallic display cabinet is embedded in the wall, which already contains some collectibles, although Jiang Zao can't tell what they are.
The sofa faces the floor-to-ceiling windows, offering views of flowers in spring, rain in summer, falling leaves in autumn, and snow in winter – a truly romantic experience.
Meanwhile, the restaurant and kitchen areas are decorated with wood veneer, and the restaurant area has large windows with views, making you feel like you are in a forest restaurant, with greenery everywhere you look.
The innermost space on the basement level is a specially designed study with an extra-long island desk and bookshelves. Jiang Zao felt that reading in there was a real pleasure.
Jiang went upstairs in the morning and entered the master bedroom. Unlike the modern public areas, the master bedroom was decorated in a warmer style, with off-white walls and wood-grain floor tiles, making it feel more comfortable.
There's also the low-saturation gray secondary bedroom, which has a cool and relaxing feel under the sunlight.
Jiang Zao was immersed in the experience, becoming more and more satisfied with the view. Such a large villa was something she had never dared to dream of before.
Now she appeared before her, looking radiant and beautiful.
Especially the king-size bed in the master bedroom!! It looks so comfortable!
Ahhhh
I feel like lying on it and rolling around in it!
Jiang Zao cupped her face in her hands: "Waaah, Tongzi, you really understand me so well. Every single detail of the decor is perfectly in line with my aesthetic sense."
System Xiaoqi was delighted: "Host, I'm glad you like it."
Jiang Zao nodded frantically: "I really love it!!"
Jiang Zao: "Seventh Master, how much does this villa cost?"
System Xiaoqi: "Around 300 million."
Jiang Zao nodded: "It's alright, haha."
Perhaps because she recently spent 100 million at a time, 300 million seemed like nothing special to her.
Jiang Zao then clicked on the rewards from Zhengde Law Firm.
Jiang Zao wasn't very familiar with these law firms, so she asked the system, "Xiao Qi, what is this Zhengde Law Firm?"
System Xiaoqi appeared just in time: "Zhengde Law Firm was founded in Beijing in 1990 and is one of the earliest partnership law firms in China. Zhengde has 12 offices at home and abroad and a professional team of more than 1,000 people, consisting of more than 320 partners and consultants and more than 750 lawyers and legal translators. It is one of the internationally recognized outstanding large-scale comprehensive law firms in China."
