Afternoon, 5 pm.
The sea breeze is gentle, and the waves are rippling under the setting sun.
When the Mercedes MPV drove over, everyone was attracted by the beautiful view of the sea and sky. They wound down the windows and took in the fresh air. The coast here was azure, just like the color of a sapphire. It was very clear. Compared to the sea they saw in the north, the difference was not just a little bit. The sea in the north was mostly dark blue, and some of the dirty sea had a hint of black, so the degree of clarity was different.
"We are here!"
"The sea is so beautiful!"
"Eh? Why aren't there people swimming on the beach?"
"This is not a recreational area, and it is not open to the public."
"Luxurious beach villa? Wu Er, Old Master Wu is so rich! "
Everyone spoke one after another, and the car approached a guardrail. There were a few security guards and doormen. Maybe Wu Er had informed them in advance, or maybe they recognized Wu Er's car. When the doormen saw the license plate number of the Mercedes-Benz, they immediately waved their hands and opened the electric guardrail.
The Mercedes passed through the guardrail smoothly.
This is a high-class seaside villa district. Dong Xuebing can tell from the surroundings and facilities. After driving for a while, he saw a villa not far from the seaside. Mr. Wu Er's residence is in District 3, and Dong Xuebing searched for a while before stopping his car there. Right in front of them was the villa with a large courtyard. The front courtyard and the villa's main entrance were connected to the beach, and even the courtyard was covered in fine sand. There were three to five awnings scattered around, and there were even a few barbecue equipment at the side. Wu Er's back was standing there.
"Uncle Wu." Dong Xuebing smiled and greeted him.
Wu Er turned and laughed. "You are here? Welcome! "
"Wow!" Xie Hao exclaimed. "This place is so beautiful!"
Everyone got out of the car and looked at the beach in front of them. They all took off their shoes and socks. There were a few shoe cabinets on the side of the bluestone road. Then, they stepped on the warm sand and walked up. The comfortable sunset and the cool sea breeze made this place look like a paradise.
Xie Huilan shook Wu Er's hand and smiled. "Have we caused trouble for you?"
Wu Er waved his hand. "Even if you all did not call me, I still want to invite you all over. What's there to trouble? The more the merrier. " No wonder Dong Xuebing's business was so successful. "Ha … Xiao Dong, you still have not introduced me."
Dong Xuebing slapped his forehead. "I had forgotten to introduce them when we alighted. Err … this is Xie Ran, Xie Jing, and Xie Hao. They are my younger siblings. This is Sun Kai, Xiao Jing's boyfriend." He hugged Xie Huilan's waist. "This is my wife, Xie Huilan."
Although Wu Er had guessed they are a couple on the plane, he could not help but sigh. "You are so lucky."
Dong Xuebing laughed. "I also think so."
His wife was beautiful, had a good figure, was capable, and had a good temperament. Of course, he was blessed.
Wu Er immediately greeted them. "Come, it's time for dinner. Let's talk while we eat. I've asked the servants to prepare the barbecue ingredients. Let's grill them!"
"Let me help."
"Me too."
"Ha, it smells good!"
"Then eat more! Enough for you! "
Everyone started barbecuing and sat on the beach chairs to eat and drink.
Crabs, prawns, squid, and fishes are delicious.
Even Xie Ran, who had eaten at the food street, had a good appetite. "It smells good."
As they ate, Xie Hao asked. "Old Master, how much did you spend on this mansion? It's too luxurious. "
"What are you asking?" Xie Jing gave Dong Xuebing a stare. "Eat your meat!"
This is a personal question, and they are not familiar with each other. That's why they did not ask directly. But Wu Er did not mind and laughed. "I don't know how much it is now. I bought it a long time ago. It should be around 200 million RMB, including this mansion, the beach in front, and a yacht. Now, land prices had risen, and it is not as cheap as before. But it had risen over the years, and this investment is worth it."
"A few hundred million?" Sun Kai was stunned.
Xie Hao's jaw dropped. "You are really rich."
Wu Er waved his hand modestly. "It's just a small business, and it's nothing. I think your brother-in-law is the richest one."
Dong Xuebing quickly replied. "I am not as rich as you."
Wu Er laughed and points to the rings on Dong Xuebing's and Xie Huilan's fingers. "Anyway, I am not willing to spend a few hundred million on a pair of diamond rings. It's too extravagant."
"Ah … no." Dong Xuebing waved his hand humbly.
On the side, Sun Kai wiped the sweat off his forehead, thinking to himself, 'Don't say who's the other, you two are really exaggerating. Sigh, what kind of people are you?' Sun Kai wasn't mentally prepared for this at all before boarding the plane. He thought he was just going to meet Xiao Jing's family, travel, and relax during the school's winter break. But who knew that from the moment he boarded the plane, Sun Kai would be scared out of his wits. If he knew that Xiao Jing's family was so rich and powerful, Sun Kai wouldn't have dared to come. He would've stayed at home. Luckily, Xiao Jing's family are not arrogant and are polite to him. If not, Sun Kai will be on pins and needles.
Suddenly, a sweet voice came from the mansion's main door.
"Dad! I am hungry! "
"You did not wake up earlier, and now you are awake?"
"I am tired from swimming in the morning."
"Come over and greet your Big Brother and Sister."
A little girl of about 14 or 15 years old walked over listlessly. She was wearing a small swimsuit and had her hair combed into a braid. She looked quite cute and petite.
Wu Er hugged his daughter's shoulders. "This is my daughter, Youyou."
Xie Jing giggled. "Your daughter is so cute. Is she 13 this year?"
"Hahaha … 14." Wu Er turned to Xie Huilan. "They are all my friends. Why aren't you greeting them?"
"Hello, Big Brother, Sister." After Youyou called out sweetly, she immediately grabbed a skewer of squid and ate it in big mouthfuls. She might have been scalded, but she quickly stuck out her small tongue and blew on it while huffing and puffing.
Wu Er laughed. "This child is so rude and only knows how to eat."
"I am hungry." Youyou continued to eat.
Xie Hao finally saw the pretty girl in the swimsuit, and he kept looking at her.
Youyou also noticed Xie Hao looking at her and turned to give him a stare.
Xie Hao is only a few years older than Youyou, and they are considered the same age. Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and slapped Xie Hao's head.
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and slapped Xie Hao's head. "Stop staring at me. Don't you know your manners? What did I teach you when you are young? "
Xie Hao rolled his eyes. "Can I look at the oven?"
Wu Er had helped them by lending them a car, treating them to dinner, and should be staying over at their place tonight. Now, Dong Xuebing is in a dilemma. Wu Er had helped them by lending them a car, treating them to dinner, and should be staying over at their place tonight. Now, Dong Xuebing is out for a visit, and it's Lunar New Year. Dong Xuebing doesn't know the customs of the people in T Wan, but Wu Er and his daughter are from China, and they should be giving gifts to the younger generation. But Dong Xuebing did not buy anything when he came over. Dong Xuebing looked through his clothes and noticed a jade necklace around his neck. This necklace is polished from a piece of jade he got from Yun Xuan's Auction House. Dong Xuebing also has a jade pendant and a ring. His mother had given the ring to Yang Zhaode's niece, Su Jia, as a meeting gift. But the necklace and jade pendant are still on him, and he had never taken them off.
This is the necklace!
Dong Xuebing took a step forward. "Hello, Youyou."
"Nice to meet you too." Youyou mumbled as she ate.
Dong Xuebing smiled and took off the jade necklace. "It's our first time meeting, and I did not prepare anything nice. Take this pendant as your New Year's money."
Youyou did not think much of it at first, but when she saw the necklace, she could not take her eyes off it. "Wow! It's so beautiful."
Wu Er immediately pushed Dong Xuebing away. "Xiao Dong, what are you doing? Take it back. "
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Uncle Wu, it's Lunar New Year, and I want to give her some money."
"Sigh … you don't have to be so particular. Furthermore, this necklace is made from ice jade. With the carving skills, it should cost at least 100,000 RMB. It's too heavy. "
"If you don't want it, you are not giving me face. Can we go back now? "
"You … Sigh … You are too polite. Alright, Youyou. Hurry up and thank your brother."
"Thank you, Brother!" Youyou held the necklace in her hands and looked at it for a while before putting it on.
Xie Hao praised. "It's beautiful."
Everyone nodded. This exquisite jade necklace looks better on Youyou than Dong Xuebing.
The barbecue is over.
Everyone had a good meal.
Wu Er immediately suggested going to the beach for a swim in the morning.
All of them agreed and entered the villa to change into their swimsuits.
Xie Jing was walking behind, and Sun Kai pulled her aside. "Jing Jing, they said that jade necklace is worth 100,000 RMB? Is it worth T Coins? "
Xie Jing slapped her forehead. "You had been thinking about this all this while? How can it be T Coins? That is an ice jade, and it should be worth 100,000 RMB. "
Sun Kai paused for a while and sighed. "Your family is too much. How can they give 100,000 RMB as New Year's money so casually? My 20 years worth of New Year's money is not even 20,000 RMB. "
Xie Jing laughed. "My brother-in-law is from Beijing, and he is very prideful. That's why he will not be stingy when it comes to his reputation."
"I can tell."
"Let's go. Let's change."
Sun Kai had seen Dong Xuebing's wealth and the way he spends money today. He is used to it.
