"I really can't believe it. Think about it, so many wives of his have died. Everyone in the neighborhood who knows about it has spent money on him. And he just walked away like that? You live in a villa, nobody's jealous of you..."
"But when you leave...you should at least say goodbye to your neighbors, right? That's immoral! This society is so immoral these days!"
The old man sighed repeatedly, leaving Wang Yao dumbfounded. He had only been with Ni Zhenlu and Tang Meifeng for about ten days, and these two had moved so fast! They'd even sold their house and moved into a villa? Don't villas need renovation? What kind of speed is this?
However, this also provides an important piece of information: Ni Zhenlu and his wife must be living in a fully furnished villa. Given Tang Meifeng's personality, she might not be so eager to live with him unless Ni Zhenlu has prepared everything in advance.
Xiangyun is a small city, and there aren't many villas that are fully furnished and then sold to the public. After inquiring around, Wang Yao learned that there was a community called "Guadal Garden" where a villa used as a model house had just been sold. This was still news in Xiangyun's real estate industry.
After all, villas are rarely fully furnished. The owners who have the money to buy villas are all fussy people, and they always have their own ideas about decoration. Even if you spend money to decorate for them, nine times out of ten they will still be dissatisfied.
The real estate company owner renovated this villa himself, originally intending it for his own residence. However, the contractor in charge of construction took a liking to it and insisted on buying it. Needless to say, the feng shui and layout of this villa, which the owner kept for himself, are top-notch in Xiangyun. The owner was reluctant to part with it.
Unfortunately, the foreman's wife was incredibly capable. She sat in the boss's office all day with money in her pocket, and not only did she eventually buy the villa, but she also managed to get the boss to give her a discount of tens of thousands of yuan. This became a recent strange story in Xiangyun.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yao immediately guessed that it must be Tang Meifeng. He hurriedly asked for the location of the villa and rushed over. When he arrived, he saw that it was indeed Tang Meifeng.
The villa area of "Gwadar Garden" is arranged in a very unique way. A winding mountain road is lined with lush trees on both sides, and every now and then a villa peeks out from among the trees, its eaves flying high, quiet and elegant, with a unique charm. Each villa is surrounded by exotic flowers and plants, pleasing to the eye.
The location of the villa that Ni Zhenlu bought was even more impeccable. A waterfall suddenly appeared in the mountains, and the water flowed down the mountain to form a deep pool. The villa faced the deep pool and was backed by the mountain wall. There was a Buddhist temple above, with the sound of chanting lingering. Opening the window revealed the blue pool, which was refreshing and delightful.
The asphalt road winds along the edge of the deep pool all the way to the villa's door. The surrounding cliffs are lined with flowers, trees, and shrubs that surround the balconies and windows, making it a veritable paradise, a fairyland on earth.
Wang Yao walked to the security door outside the villa and looked inside. He saw Tang Meifeng busy at work. She had uprooted all the exotic flowers and plants that the community had originally planted in front of and behind the villa, and turned the former flower beds into vegetable plots.
"Hello!" Wang Yao called out to Tang Meifeng through the security door.
Tang Meifeng glanced at Wang Yao outside the security door, slowly wiped her sweat with a towel, picked up the water glass on the ground, took a sip of water, then put the glass down and walked towards Wang Yao.
"You're here?" Tang Meifeng greeted her like an old friend, opening the security door.
"You... knew I... was coming?" Wang Yao was somewhat taken aback.
“My dad and I took the high-speed train to Caidu, and you came with me. Xiaoqiang and I had barbecue at night, and you came with me too. You even helped me bring Lao Ni from Xiangyun. What about that little monk? Lao Ni keeps talking about it. Without that little monk’s beating, we wouldn’t be where we are today.”
Tang Meifeng spoke casually, but it sent a chill down Wang Yao's spine. What a formidable woman! He had been eavesdropping on her on the high-speed train, and she had actually caught him.
"I reckon you two should be arriving in the next couple of days. There's no such thing as doing a favor without expecting anything in return. So, what do you want? Let me tell you in advance, I used all of Lao Ni's money to buy this house. If you want money, sorry, take a few hundred or a thousand, but that's all I have."
Tang Meifeng said calmly.
"I don't want money, but there is something I'd like to trouble you with." Wang Yao was delighted to hear Tang Meifeng's generosity and quickly said.
"If it's free, that makes things easy. Tell me what it is. Come in and sit down. You're a grown man, are you afraid I'll eat you up?" Tang Meifeng chuckled and ushered Wang Yao into the villa.
"Well, I have a good friend in Huadu. This guy has a bit of a problem. How should I put it? In your local dialect, he's a bit of a nutcase. No matter how you try to persuade him, he won't listen to anything he's determined to do." As Wang Yao spoke, he and Tang Meifeng walked through the security door, across the vegetable patch, and toward the villa's foyer.
“He’s been having some relationship troubles lately. He’s been juggling several relationships at the same time. Think about it, he’s just a university professor, not exactly rich. If he has so many girlfriends, he can’t possibly manage them all, and he can’t afford it either, can he?”
"We tried to persuade him that when it comes to girlfriends, quality is more important than quantity, but he just wouldn't listen. He's a professor, after all, and he talks about human liberation, freedom of love between men and women, multiple choices, mutual consent, and all sorts of other reasons. I couldn't persuade him."
"Think about it, having multiple relationships at the same time is immoral. My friend has already worked very hard to become a professor and has achieved some success in his field. But... if he suffers a major setback in his relationships, it would be such a waste, don't you think?"
"He's juggling so many relationships, and he's not responsible to the girls, is he? We, as his friends, might not know about this, but we know about his problem and yet we pretend not to see it and don't help him come to his senses. If something happens, aren't we also responsible?"
