Rich Parents Found Me After I Got a Tycoon System? Yeah, I'm Not Interested

Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Boyue Residence Villa 01

"It’s fine. I have bodyguards."

Yun Zijin showcased the seven bodyguards behind her to Li Yuexing.

Anyone might get beaten up, but it definitely wouldn’t be Yun Zijin.

Li Yuexing was crushed!

"Alright, stop goofing around. The car’s here."

Outside Hualan, the Jinsheng Hotel’s private car had arrived.

Yun Zijin and Li Yuexing stopped their antics and walked out together.

Once they left, the cashier and the attendant at Hualan’s front desk were the ones who really lost their composure.

Li Yuexing was crushed because he had failed to snag one, whereas they couldn’t even afford to buy one.

"Sigh! There are so many rich people in the world. What’s wrong with adding me to the list?"

"Sigh..."

Of course, the two of them just sighed about it for a moment before quickly getting back to work.

Rich or not, what truly mattered was living their own lives to the fullest.

「In the Jinsheng Hotel’s private car.」

"Zijing, when did you buy this villa?"

Among the four of them, it seemed only Old Lu had managed to buy one. He never thought he’d meet another owner in Yun Zijin.

"I don’t remember. I’d have to look at the property deed."

When she received the reward, Yun Zijin had only glanced at it briefly and didn’t remember the exact date.

"Fair enough. People with a lot of real estate can be that cavalier."

Li Yuexing suspected that Yun Zijin might own more real estate than even scions of old, established Dijing families like them.

After all, the resources they could mobilize were finite, whereas Yun Zijin’s cash flow seemed endless.

"How could I possibly compare to you, President Li? I’m just a simple citizen with a teensy bit of money."

Yun Zijin was telling the truth. Although her current assets could continuously generate more money, she had no real power or influence to speak of.

In a true comparison, Yun Zijin still couldn’t measure up to those deeply entrenched, aristocratic families.

Neither Li Yuexing nor Lu Yunque could argue with that.

Judging by what Yun Zijin had revealed so far, her holdings truly couldn’t compare to the assets of their established families.

"Mr. Lu, Miss Yun, Mr. Li, we’ve arrived at Boyue Residence. Without a key card, our car can’t get in."

This was Yun Zijin’s first time here, so of course she didn’t have a key card either.

"I’ll go check."

Yun Zijin grabbed her handbag and was about to get out of the car.

Lu Yunque also got out of the car with her. Seeing both of them get out, Li Yuexing didn’t feel right just sitting and watching, so he followed them.

Because the car bore the Jinsheng Hotel logo, which the Boyue Residence security guard recognized, his attitude toward them was relatively amiable.

"What are you here for? Without prior notice from a resident, we can’t let anyone into the complex."

The security guard was a man of about thirty. Judging by his bearing and conduct, he was very likely a veteran.

"I’m a resident. Here’s my ID and a photo of the property deed.

This is my first time here. Could you please take a look, and also let me know what procedures I need to complete."

’Since I’m here, I might as well take care of all the necessary procedures. It probably won’t take too long.’

The security guard glanced at Yun Zijin, took her ID card, and looked her up on the computer in the guardhouse.

To his surprise, he actually found her owner information—and for the most prestigious villa on the property, the one that had been vacant all this time.

"Ah, so you’re Miss Yun, the owner of Villa 01. My apologies, I didn’t recognize you since this is your first visit.

For the procedures you need to complete, you can just take your ID and go directly to the property management office. I’ll open the gate for you now!"

Since the guard could verify her information right there, it saved Yun Zijin the trouble of producing any other proof of identity.

"The two cars behind us are also with us."

"Of course, of course. Rest assured."

With a confirmation from Yun Zijin, the guard had no reason to stop the other cars.

The group got back in their cars.

"Wait a minute, Old Lu, aren’t you an owner too? How come that security guard didn’t recognize you?"

’Even though the one Lu Yunque bought isn’t the number 01 prime villa, it’s still number 02, for crying out loud.’

"I live in Dijing most of the time and rarely stay here. It’s perfectly normal that he doesn’t recognize me."

When he traveled for business, he almost always stayed at the Jinsheng Hotel.

After all, the Jinsheng Hotel is in the city center, so getting around and everything is more convenient.

No matter how prime the location of Boyue Residence was, it couldn’t possibly be better than the city center.

"Which villa number are you? Maybe we’re neighbors."

"Neighbors separated by several soccer fields?"

Li Yuexing fired back with pinpoint accuracy.

To better protect the residents’ private space, every villa in Boyue Residence was built far apart. Villa 01 in particular was surrounded by greenbelts and large trees, completely obscuring any view of the other villas.

Both Yun Zijin and Lu Yunque were speechless, but they had to admit he was telling the truth.

Yun Zijin’s Villa 01 was easy to find. One just had to drive in from the main road all the way to the end, and the villa there was Villa 01.

"Wow! It looks great even from the outside."

Villa 01 had gardens in both the front and back, enclosed by a white fence. It had the air of a tranquil, idyllic country retreat.

Since no one had moved in yet, despite the house being sold, the lawn and garden inside the fence had become somewhat overgrown and messy.

’Another thing for Mei Lin to handle.’

"It’s already full of weeds. I’ll have to call someone to come clean it up."

"There aren’t many weeds. It’s mainly that the landscaping hasn’t been trimmed. It shouldn’t be hard to tidy up."

Lu Yunque assessed the situation after a quick look around.

"It’s fine. I’ll just have Mei Lin come over and handle it."

When it came to managing a villa, Yun Zijin was truly clueless.

Hearing Yun Zijin mention Mei Lin, Lu Yunque also remembered that woman who seemed to be devoid of any emotion.

As his interactions with Yun Zijin had increased, Lu Yunque had seen Mei Lin a few times.

Lu Yunque’s assessment of Mei Lin was simple: ’An emotionless work machine.’

"Speaking of Mei Lin, Zijing, I’m really starting to envy you. Where on earth did you find someone so talented?"

Although Yun Zijin’s businesses were mostly real estate, places like Ginza and Yungong No. 1 were also closely related to their own circles.

In the short time since Mei Lin took over, she had purged countless shady operations from those businesses, seemingly overnight.

Many of these were run by people without the knowledge of the staff at Ginza and Yungong No. 1. Once Mei Lin found out, she eliminated them one by one.

As for Wu Jiaxiang and Creach, who were in charge of Ginza and Yungong No. 1, they were walking on eggshells during that time. Not only were their bonuses docked, but they were also forced to work overtime with Mei Lin, pulling countless all-nighters.

It was during that time that the two went from a relationship of mutual dislike to becoming brothers in misfortune.

"Hmph, hmph! That’s a trade secret. All I can say is, she’s one of a kind. You won’t find another."

’I’ve only managed to get seven bodyguards and one Mei Lin so far. Poaching from me? Don’t even think about it.’

"I’m not asking for Mei Lin herself! Someone even half as good as her would be fine. If you have connections, hook me up!"

’If I had a capable assistant like Mei Lin by my side, my workload would be at least cut in half.’

"I don’t have any."

’It’s not that I don’t want to give him a recommendation, but I don’t have any sources either.’

’I can’t just tell him they’re rewards from my system, can I?’

’No one would believe me even if I did!’
