Chapter 8: Chapter 7: Try Out the Softness of This Bed
“Senior Sister? You also graduated from Finance University?”
Liu Yingying responded quickly, immediately understanding Su Jie’s identity.
“You were one year above me. Back then, Senior Sister Liu, you were quite the celebrity at our school. How come you became a real estate salesperson after graduating?”
“Jobs are hard to find nowadays. My major in finance didn’t get me anywhere without resources; I couldn’t get into the big financial firms, and the small ones had intense internal competition. I just left a job at a financial company two months ago.”
Liu Yingying’s voice had a somber tone; she was one year senior to Su Jie, which meant she had been working for a year and a half.
The fact that she had ended up in real estate sales indicated her career hadn’t been going too well.
“Unlike you, if I had such good resources, even without a college degree, it would have been a breeze to get into a large financial company.”
Perhaps it was the connection of being from the same school that made Liu Yingying loosen up a lot, joining Su Jie in criticizing their chosen field of study.
In Liu Yingying’s view, for Su Jie to dare to buy a villa in Jingjiang Manor at such a young age, he must be a second-generation rich kid.
Those prestigious financial companies really liked to hire rich kids, as their social connections were indeed valuable assets.
Su Jie just smiled and didn’t explain, saying, “Let’s not talk about that. Is that the standalone villa you’re taking me to see up ahead?”
“Ah, I nearly forgot about it with all the chatting, yes, that’s Jingjiang No.1 over there, the king of buildings on the property. It’s the biggest, most luxurious, and prettiest detached villa we have here.”
Liu Yingying pulled out the keys and opened the door to the villa.
The villa was set on more than two thousand square meters, boasting a private swimming pool, a private garden and lawn, and its decoration was extremely lavish.
“The total area of the villa is 2050 square meters, with three levels above ground and one below, featuring an atrium, a central island kitchen, an indoor elevator, a private cinema, a study, a bar, and a vast rooftop terrace. Additionally, the backyard of the villa provides direct access to Qingshui River with a private dock. When purchased, we’ll also present a small yacht, convenient for outings…”
Liu Yingying indeed had strong work capability, detailing each of the luxurious standalone villa’s advantages one by one.
After looking around the villa, Su Jie was fairly satisfied.
Firstly, the area was large, and the distance from the nearest villa and residential area was sufficient, with surrounding trees blocking the view, convenient for his cultivation.
Moreover, next to the villa was a tributary of the Qingjiang River. As the Thousand-Handed Centipede continued to grow and became too large to carry around, it could be transported through the river, slipping away undetected.
Lastly, the villa was fully furnished and equipped, saving him the hassle of decorating.
“Let’s talk about the key point, how much is the price, and can I move in on the same day after I buy it?”
After the tour, Su Jie turned his gaze to Liu Yingying.
“The villa has a total price of 49.99 million, but if you’re buying, I can fight for a maximum discount of five percent for you, which means you can take it for just under 48 million. After purchase, you can move in immediately.”
Liu Yingying’s heart raced. Seeing Su Jie’s attitude, he seemed serious about buying! That would mean a huge commission for her.
“The price seems fine, but…”
Su Jie paused there for a moment, instantly making Liu Yingying’s heart leap with anticipation.
“But what? Su Jie, don’t play riddles with me. If you have any unsatisfactory terms, we can talk about them!”
Liu Yingying looked at Su Jie nervously, fearing this lavish deal might slip through her fingers.
Taking two steps forward, Su Jie pulled back the huge curtains in the master bedroom, smiling, “The house is great, but it’s just too empty, lacking a bit of life.”
“Later on, we can hire cleaning staff. If there are not many people at home…”
“I’m the only one in my family.”
Liu Yingying bit her red lips, seeing a commission of hundreds of thousands slipping away, she seemed to make up her mind, recalling the rumors she had heard in the industry. Taking a step forward, she hugged Su Jie from behind.
“Su Jie, I could stay with you for a night to add some life to the house. What do you think of that?”
“Now that sounds good! I’m particular about my sleeping environment, and I have trouble sleeping in unfamiliar places. Having someone to keep me company would be perfect, and I could also test if the villa’s bed is soft enough.”
He patted the ultra-soft, king-sized bed, Su Jie lifted Liu Yingying’s chin, revealing her shy and timid, but beautiful face.
Liu Yingying seductively bit her red lips and slowly closed her eyes.
Anyway, Su Jie didn’t dislike it; there was mutual affection, and both sides could be said to have hit it off immediately.
It was like heavenly thunder igniting earth’s fire.
In the luxurious bedroom, the king-sized plush bed underwent the biggest bounce test since it had left the factory, enduring the ordeal amidst storm-like tremors.
Liu Yingying slowly awoke from a deep sleep, her body feeling sore and weak.
Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and footsteps sounded, waking Liu Yingying as if from a dream, making her subconsciously pull the blanket around her.
Then, Liu Yingying saw Su Jie walk in, wearing pajamas.
“Awake, eh? You really can sleep,”
Said Su Jie, stretching lazily, picking up the clothes scattered on the floor.
“After tossing and turning with me all night, who could handle it! And yet you blame me for sleeping,”
Liu Yingying wrinkled her nose, a face of grievance, her body feeling as if it had fallen apart.
“Who knew it was your first time, I thought…”
Su Jie raised an eyebrow, his words earning him a glare from Liu Yingying.
“What did you think, if not for… for…”
“For money, right? There’s nothing to be shy about that,”
“Hmph, sooner or later it’s just giving it away to men, might as well exchange it for a higher-valued chip,”
Liu Yingying said so pragmatically, no longer feeling conflicted.
Some women wish for this opportunity and never get it, anyway, she herself didn’t feel it was a loss.
“Put on your clothes, it’s time to go,”
Su Jie didn’t say anything more, just handed back the clothes on the floor to the other party.
“Kicking me out already? My arms and legs are still sore; can’t I stay a bit longer…”
“Suit yourself. If you’re not in a hurry to sign the property purchase agreement, you can lie in bed as long as you want,”
“Then what are we waiting for, I’ll leave with you right now,”
In a flash, Liu Yingying, who had just been complaining, seemed like a different person, instantly regaining her full energy.
She got up from the bed briskly, got dressed, and soon returned to the radiant beauty she was the day before.
Back at the sales office, in the midst of envious glances from the sales team, Su Jie signed the property purchase contract, and his bank account diminished to just over ten million.
Liu Yingying’s face bloomed with a brilliant smile; with this deal secured, she would receive a commission of seven to eight hundred thousand, equivalent to a decade’s salary for an average office worker.
“Still short on cash,”
Su Jie looked at the remaining balance of just over ten million in his account, expressing this sentiment.
Though the amount was a lot for the average person, for Su Jie, it really wasn’t much.
In just a few days, he had nearly spent sixty million, a sign that he still wasn’t earning enough.
