CHAPTER 293: CHAPTER 273: THE BILLION-YUAN VILLA

Sister Qin’s shrill and shocked voice rang out: "One billion?"

"This should at least start at ten billion, you know?"

"The housing prices have risen so much this year, not to mention it’s a prime location, and such a large area. My God, there aren’t many of these castle-like villas in the whole of Beijing."

Sister Qin clicked her tongue and praised, "It seems your Mr. Bao really cares about you. He just gives you a villa starting at ten billion like that; you should be on that world’s list or something."

Jiang Ruan laughed and cried: "Stop teasing me, Sister Qin. It’s really not that big a deal."

"To be honest, I’m still processing it."

Sister Qin: "Such a large space, what’s it like living there? Do you feel like a princess living in a French castle?"

Jiang Ruan: "It’s not that exaggerated."

She smiled, "Want to experience it? One day I could ask Bao Ye if he agrees, and you could stay with me for a few days."

At this, Sister Qin refused without thinking, laughing, "No thanks, I don’t want to be the third wheel between you and your man."

"With such a huge house, you’d need to hire some staff, right? It must be quite a hassle to manage?"

Jiang Ruan: "It’s not that much trouble. As for the staff, let me count."

"Including the butler, there should be over thirty."

Sister Qin was startled: "Over thirty staff members?"

"My God, it’s like having an emperor and empress from ancient times serving just the two of you."

"I can’t even imagine the lives of the rich; it’s truly luxurious beyond belief."

"I’ve seen it all now."

Jiang Ruan giggled, "Alright, I just signed the agreement and felt a bit dazed. I needed someone to talk to, it all feels so unreal."

"That’s why I called you."

"I’m not showing off or anything, that’s not who I am."

Sister Qin: "Okay, I know even if you don’t say it."

"Though you’ve been with Bao Ye for a few years, when I first heard about it, I was quite shocked. But I never thought you were with him just for the money."

"But honey, this world is very realistic, especially with rich people. Of course, since Bao Ye is willing to give you such an expensive villa, it means he truly values you, so you can rest easy."

After a few more words, Jiang Ruan hung up the phone.

Sister Qin reminded her not to forget about the banquet in the evening.

Jiang Ruan suddenly remembered.

Tonight is Cartier’s banquet.

Many social elites and celebrities will attend.

She is one of the invitees.

This is Jiang Ruan’s first time being invited to Cartier’s banquet. She was quite excited yesterday, but was so preoccupied with Bao Ye and Xu Yun today that she forgot about it.

Crawling out of bed, Jiang Ruan put away the agreement and then arranged for someone to come by and do her beauty treatment.

In the evening, Jiang Ruan stood in her dressing room.

Looking at the clothes inside the glass cases before her.

The soft yellow light fell on them, perfectly showcasing the features of the garments.

Inside, there are hundreds of haute couture dresses.

All bought by Bao Ye for her.

Many of which she hasn’t worn.

But Bao Ye regularly has people tidy them up, clearing out a batch and bringing in a new batch of clothes.

After all, for people like them who frequently attend high-end venues, limited editions sometimes symbolize status.

After choosing for a while, Jiang Ruan finally selected a gem-blue strapless mermaid gown from Cartier’s own brand, fitted to the body, sexy yet elegant.

The gem-blue color naturally glows and is very fair-skinned.

After putting it on, Jiang Ruan was very satisfied.
