A beautiful summer night

Xie Tan, who was on summer vacation, had relatively free time. He made an excuse that he wanted to go home to see his grandfather, but actually instructed the driver to drive towards the Xie Group building.

She sent Xie Qiyan a WeChat message beforehand, saying she had something important to discuss with him. As soon as she entered Xie's company, she saw Yu Fei waiting for her from afar.

She jogged over: "Brother Yu Fei, quickly find the best apartment near Xingyao Building, one with a huge floor-to-ceiling window."

Yu Fei only received orders from his superior to come and pick up the person. Hearing Xie Tan's words, he was both amused and exasperated: "How old are you to be buying a house? Isn't the Xie family's big yard enough for you to live in?"

Xie Tan crossed his arms: "I'm going to buy it and rent it to Sister Wanzi! This isn't my order, it's your CEO Xie's order!"

Yu Fei raised her eyebrows, not entirely believing it: "Who is Sister Wanzi?"

Before she could get a reply, the elevator had already gone up to the president's office. Xie Tan ignored him and ran out of the elevator to find Xie Qiyan.

Huo Yang was delivering documents to the office when Xie Tan slipped in without him noticing as the door opened.

"Her?" Huo Yang looked at Yu Fei, who was following behind Xie Tan, with a puzzled expression.

"President Xie asked me to pick him up," Yu Fei shrugged.

Huo Yang took his words back, looked at the urgent document in his hand, and had no choice but to bite the bullet and go inside.

Inside the office, Xie Tan ran in and immediately stood next to Xie Qiyan, hugging his arm and pleading, "Brother, buy a house for Sister Wanzi!"

Huo Yang suddenly stopped in his tracks, unsure whether to move forward or backward.

This is more exciting than hearing about some trade secret.

Xie Qiyan ended the conference call after Xie Tan came in. He glanced at Xie Tan and tapped the back of Xie Tan's hand with the pen he was holding: "Take your hand away."

"Didn't you ask me to find out where Sister Wanzi lives? Now that we've taken it on, we have to see it through to the end!" Xie Tan would never have dared to yell at Xie Qiyan like this before, but now that it concerns Xia Wanzhi, she's going all out.

Xie Qiyan frowned, pulled his arm out and pushed Xie Tan back: "Stand there, don't move."

Xie Tan swung her arms, her body swaying as she squatted down: "Brother Qi Yan!"

Xie Qiyan felt a headache coming on: "When did I ask you to find out where she lives? What business is it of mine where she lives? Stop talking nonsense."

Xie Tan's eyes widened: "Last night you were the one implying that Sister Wanzi was pitiful and that I should take better care of her!"

"I was telling you to go and laugh at her!" Xie Qiyan put down his pen, turned to face Xie Tan, and said, "You're getting bolder and bolder, daring to talk to me like that."

Huo Yang swallowed hard, looking at the standoff between the two, and glanced at his watch. He took a step forward and said, "President Xie, the Xingyao construction contract needs your signature now."

Xie Qiyan withdrew his gaze from Xie Tan and reached out to take the documents Huo Yang handed him and sign them.

Xie Tan gritted his teeth: "You want to demolish someone's house, but you won't buy them a house. You're a scumbag."

Huo Yang glanced at it and was caught red-handed when he took the signed document from Xie Qiyan.

"Cough... I didn't hear anything." Huo Yang picked up the documents and turned to leave.

Xie Qiyan took a deep breath and spoke after a long while: "There's a river-view apartment on Nanhu Road that's vacant. You can decide what to do with it."

Xie Tan smiled triumphantly: "Thank you, brother. Sister Wanzi will be grateful to you for the rest of her life."

Xie Qiyan: "..."

Outside the office, Huo Yang, still not fully digesting the information, grabbed Yu Fei and asked, "Who is Wanzi?"

Just a short while ago, Yu Fei heard Xie Tan asking Xie Qiyan to buy a house for a girl named Wanzi. Yu Fei's mind raced: "If he's going to buy a house for someone, she must be the future president's wife?"

-

Nanhu Road is backed by Nanhu Lake, and the surrounding residential areas are generally not cheap, let alone the Lanting Bieyuan, which can be called a luxury residence.

Lanting Courtyard is the most upscale and luxurious residential area in the Nanhu Road area. Xia Wanzhi had a vague premonition when Xie Tan dragged her to visit the house.

When Xie Tan entered the password and pushed open the door, Xia Wanzhi's pupils dilated slightly, and she couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her slightly throbbing brow.

She knew it wouldn't be that simple.

She knew the Xie family was generous, but she didn't expect them to be this generous.

All she wanted was a place to stay, but Xie Tan had prepared a large apartment of nearly 200 square meters for her.

"Didn't you tell me it was a two-bedroom apartment?" Xia Wanzhi rubbed her wrist and leaned against the cabinet in the entryway, not taking another step forward.

"I don't know either," Xie Tan blinked innocently.

She's just making things up.

Xie Qiyan only said there was a vacant apartment here, but didn't say it was a specific apartment...

Such a big house.

"I can't afford it." Xia Wanzhi waved her hand and was about to turn around and leave.

I used to live in a 400-square-meter villa and didn't think it was big, but now when I see a 200-square-meter house, I feel completely overwhelmed.

She's now a bankrupt heiress and can't afford such a luxurious apartment.

Upon hearing this, Xie Tan quickly grabbed her arm and pulled her towards the living room, saying, "Since we're already here, let's take a look. Look at the floor-to-ceiling windows over there, they're huge!"

Xia Wanzhi, afraid that she would fall deeply in love, resolutely closed her eyes.

"Wow, look, Sister Wanzi! That's South Lake! It's so beautiful! The water is so clear and the sky is so blue! It's amazing!" Xie Tan shook Xia Wanzhi's arm with all her might, inwardly groaning that each one of them was more difficult than the last.

"Give me a number and I'll give up." Xia Wanzhi couldn't resist the temptation and opened her eyes.

Xie Tan had no idea: "Ten thousand a month?"

Xia Wanzhi chuckled dryly twice, then turned and left: "I can't afford it."

"It's not even on sale yet, it'll be five thousand a month after the discount!" Xie Tan started by making up a bunch of nonsense.

Xia Wanzhi laughed in exasperation: "So you really did break a bone?"

Xie Tan chuckled twice.

"Tell me, who is the landlord? I want to see which good-natured person is willing to stick their leg out and break it for you." Xia Wanzhi grabbed Xie Tan's pigtail and questioned him.

“Alright, then I won’t hide it anymore, the house is mine.” Xie Tan calmed down and acted like a little adult, pulling Xia Wanzhi to sit on the sofa and looking calmly into her eyes. “Sister Wanzi, with our friendship of so many years, don’t be polite with me, or I’ll be sad.”

Xia Wanzhi: "..."

After a few seconds of eye contact, Xia Wanzhi couldn't resist and laughed, "Based on our relationship of having watched you grow up?"

Xie Tan knew he was finally about to persuade her, and proudly raised his chin: "Is it not allowed?"

"Thank you." Xia Wanzhi suddenly became serious, pulled the little girl into her arms, gave her a deep hug, and expressed her most sincere gratitude, "Thank you so much, Tan Tan."

Xie Tan said the house was hers, and she didn't doubt it.

Grandpa Xie only has one granddaughter, so it's normal to give her a house.

Xie Tan rubbed his arms exaggeratedly: "Oh, what can we do? We're family, so it's decided just like that. You can stay here in peace. If you're happy, you can pay rent; if you're not, you don't have to. We're family, so there's no need for formalities!"

Xia Wanzhi chuckled and pinched her chubby cheeks: "Who's family with you?"

Being related to her is the same as being related to Xie Qiyan.

If you were to have the King of Hell as your family, you'd probably die suddenly at any moment.
