Chapter 748: Chapter 748

Arriving at the sales office, several saleswomen glanced at Lin Chen, who was dressed in street vendor clothes, with a trace of contempt in their eyes. Not one of them came over to chat; instead, they disdainfully gathered to the side to talk.

Lin Chen had just been picking ginseng, and while climbing cliffs, his clothes had torn in several places and were all muddy, making him indistinguishable from a construction worker. If it weren't for the fact that Li Yuqing by his side still carried a certain demeanor, those saleswomen would have already kicked Lin Chen out.

The last saleswoman who had just started her shift came over with a beaming smile, "Sir, Miss, are you looking to buy a property?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, please introduce us to the properties."

The saleswoman nodded and said, "The two of you must be a newlywed couple, right? This forty-square-meter one-bedroom apartment should be quite suitable for you."

Hearing the saleswoman refer to them as a couple, both Li Yuqing and Lin Chen's faces flushed red.

Lin Chen coughed and said, "Miss, do you have something bigger? Preferably a villa."

"Villa?" Hearing Lin Chen's words, those chatting sales clerks immediately froze.

However, after sizing up Lin Chen, they burst out laughing, "Some people... are just window shopping, that's all. Villas? Do they really think just anyone can buy them?"

One said, "Xiaoling is just inexperienced; a glance is enough to tell this one's a countryman come to the city for work. How could he possibly afford a villa?"

Upon hearing the remarks of several clerks, Lin Chen's eyebrows twitched, and he said to the saleswoman, "Could you show me the most expensive one?"

"The most expensive one?" The saleswomen were stunned for a moment, looking at Lin Chen in disbelief.

"Hmph, showing off, I want to see how long you can keep this up," the saleswomen said coldly.

Xiaoling was also taken aback, "Are you sure you want to see the most expensive one?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Of course."

Xiaoling led Lin Chen and Li Yuqing to a villa real estate area and said, "Sir, this Red Leaf Manor is a newly opened project by our company. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides and also has Ningshui Lake nearby. The scenery is beautiful, and the air quality here is arguably the best in our Zhenghai City. Moreover, the appliances and furniture inside are all complete; it's ready for you to move in with just your suitcases."

Lin Chen nodded with satisfaction and pointed to a villa nestled by the mountain and by the water, "Alright, I'll take this villa. How much is it? I'll pay with my card right now."

With Lin Chen's casual remarks, those recent sales clerks were instantly dumbfounded.

This villa cost over twelve million. If sold, the commission would be over two hundred thousand, equivalent to a year's salary for them.

They all regretted not serving Lin Chen.

Xiaoling was also startled for a moment, then hurriedly nodded, "Sir, please wait a moment; such a big order must be handled personally by our manager."

She then ran into the manager's office and called out a middle-aged man.

The manager approached Lin Chen and Li Yuqing with a smile. He too paused at Lin Chen's attire before saying, "Sir, you want to buy a villa?"

Lin Chen nodded and handed his card to the manager, "Please go ahead with the transaction quickly. I have things to do."

The manager took Lin Chen's bank card, and his expression immediately changed.

"Sir, there happens to be a promotion for this villa right now. We can offer you a discount of two million, so it's just ten million," the manager said with noticeably more respect than before.

"What, a discount of two million?" Including Xiaoling, the clerks were all flabbergasted, wondering when their company had such a generous promotion.

After the manager completed the property purchase process, he respectfully returned Lin Chen's bank card and saw Lin Chen and Li Yuqing off to the entrance.

The perplexed sales clerks asked, "Manager, when did our company start this promotional activity?"

The manager glared at them, "How many times have I told you not to judge a book by its cover? Do you know what kind of bank card that young man had? A Super Supreme VIP card; there are less than ten of those cardholders in the whole country, and each one is a top-notch individual in Huaxia. Befriending them will definitely bring us more benefits in the future."

"Lin Chen, why did you put my name on the property deed?" Li Yuqing asked.

"Of course it's yours, it's a gift to you!" Lin Chen smiled.

"I can't accept this, the gift is too valuable," Li Yuqing shook her head.

Lin Chen chuckled, "Wasn't that ginseng found by both of us? You deserve half. Don't worry, this is just the beginning. You'll soon realize that ten million is nothing to us!"

While Lin Chen and Li Yuqing were talking, they saw a few young men with clubs smashing their Mercedes not far away.

"Damn it, the car was just bought yesterday!" Lin Chen couldn't help but burst into a rage and hurried over.

The gang saw Lin Chen coming and quickly got into a sedan nearby and sped off.

At the roadside, a red Ferrari was parked, and inside sat the man who had been DUI.

Li Ang's eyes flashed with icy coldness, "Kid, you had to meddle. I'll torture you slowly."

Lin Chen approached the car, which was now dented all over from the iron clubs, and the windshield was also smashed.

Seeing the damaged car, Li Yuqing too stomped her foot in anger, "What kind of people are these? It's outrageous."

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly as he scanned the distance and quickly spotted the DUI man in the Ferrari.

The DUI man made a contemptuous gesture at him, spit arrogantly, and then sped away.

Last time, Li Ang had been caught by Zhao Jingxue for DUI and thought he could easily get out, not expecting to have hit the deputy mayor's car.

If it hadn't been for his father's strong connections, he would have been doomed this time, and even so, he had suffered a lot in there.

He naturally didn't dare to provoke the deputy mayor, so upon release, his first order of business was to settle the score with Lin Chen.

Just now, he had been passing by and saw Lin Chen and Li Yuqing getting out of the Mercedes, so he had found a bunch of hooligans to smash Lin Chen's car.

"You go home first, I'll deal with them," Lin Chen said coldly.

"Do you know where they are?" Li Yuqing asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, as long as I know his scent, he can't escape from the palm of my hand." Saying so, Lin Chen got into the Mercedes.

Half an hour later, Lin Chen found the DUI man's car downstairs at a hotel.

Using his x-ray vision, Lin Chen quickly found the DUI man in one of the hotel's second-floor rooms.

Inside the hotel room, the DUI man was pressing a girl down on the bed and clearly, the girl was unwilling and struggling desperately.

"This scumbag ran here to harm a girl," Lin Chen sneered coldly, parked the car well, and went straight to the room where the DUI man was.

The two bodyguards at the door stopped Lin Chen with a hand out, "Sir, you can't go in there."

Lin Chen snorted coldly and didn't hold back, extending his hand and chopping with two hand-blades at the necks of the two bodyguards.

The two bodyguards groaned and fell to the ground.

Li Ang's face changed, and seeing the person standing at the door, he was scared out of his wits.

"How did you find this place?" Li Ang pointed at Lin Chen as if seeing a monster.

"You bastard, did you think you could get away with smashing my car? We're going to settle our score today, one by one," saying that, Lin Chen stepped forward and grabbed Li Ang up.
