Chapter 903: Chapter 903: Gifting a Luxury Villa

After the people from the Zhan Family left, everyone in the Wu Family breathed a silent sigh of relief and looked at Ye Xuan with an expression of awe.

“Hahaha! Brother Ye Xuan, you really didn’t let me down. Even the arrogant Zhan Family conceded defeat in your hands!”

Wu Jindao strode over, clapped Ye Xuan on the shoulder, and laughed heartily, “From now on, as long as I have a wise brother like you backing the Wu Family, I won’t have to worry anymore and can finally get a good night’s sleep.”

“Exactly, with such a powerful and domineering boss who can conquer the heavens and the earth, who would dare to look down on our Wu Family now!”

Little Wu was so excited that he was gloating and spoke triumphantly.

At this moment, Wu Tingting squeezed out from behind Wu Jindao and inserted herself between a few people, looking at Ye Xuan with admiration and said, “Brother Ye Xuan, you’re so handsome, even more impressive than Aclet in the Judgment of Death! Can I be friends with you?”

The little girl’s eyes were full of expectation, having completely forgotten the disdain she had for Ye Xuan when they first met.

Ye Xuan looked at Wu Tingting with amusement and naturally wouldn’t take it personally.

He patted Wu Tingting’s little head and smiled gently, “Of course you can, as long as you don’t mind me being ugly, I’d be happy to be friends with you.”

“You’re not ugly at all, you’re the most handsome guy in the world! Even more handsome than my idol Hao Chen!” Wu Tingting clapped her little hands and exclaimed.

Because the Zhan Family had come on strong, the entire Wu Family was on edge, but now that Ye Xuan had driven them away, the crisis was naturally resolved.

After instructing everyone to disperse, a group of people returned to the villa’s reception hall.

“Brother Wu, although the Zhan Family has retreated for now, the Wu Family has also violated the Feng Family’s orders. How do you plan to explain this to them?”

After everyone had sat down again, Ye Xuan pondered for a moment before asking Wu Jindao.

“Hmph, given the situation, what’s left to explain?”

Wu Jindao snorted heavily, clearly displeased with the Feng Family’s betrayal, and said in a deep voice, “Since the Feng Family was unjust to begin with, my Wu Family has no reason to cling to them any longer! From today on, the Wu Family will no longer be manipulated by the Feng Family, and we will have no further ties to them!”

“The Wu Family followed the Feng Family back then because they could provide us with enough protection, so I had to lower my voice and comply with their commands. Yet after all these years, he really considered himself our master, taking so many benefits from me, and now not only does he not protect the Wu Family, but he also wants to join forces with the Zhan Family to carve us up? Damn him!”

Growing angrier as he spoke, Wu Jindao slammed the coffee table with hatred, “That heartless old bastard, for him not to give me an explanation would be courteous enough, why should we still follow the Feng Family’s orders!?”

Ye Xuan nodded and said, “It’s good to break away from the Feng Family, otherwise, you’d always be living under someone else’s roof, like being strangled with all life and death beyond your control! Now that you’re free, at least you can control your own destiny and won’t easily become a pawn in the quest for fame and fortune.”

“That’s exactly it! The Feng Family wanted greater benefits and sought to ally with the Zhan Family, using our Wu Family as a sacrifice, gifting us to the Zhan Family without considering all these years I worked like a horse for him.”

Wu Jindao’s voice was icy, with a cold gleam in his eyes, “In the eyes of these people, we’re just pawns on a chessboard, ready to be discarded at any time! If I continued to heed his commands, it’d be like pushing the Wu Family into a pit of fire, where we’d be completely drained by this greedy group of vampires.”

“Brother Wu, although you’ve severed ties with the Feng Family, the Wu Family’s situation isn’t very good now! You’ve simultaneously offended both the Zhan and Feng Families; although the Zhan Family won’t take action against you for the time being, there’s no guarantee the Feng Family won’t, so you must remain vigilant and cautious these days.”

Ye Xuan warned solemnly after pondering for a moment.

“I know this, but since the bridge has been burned, we must come up with a foolproof plan to leave them no chance to hit us!”

Wu Jindao nodded, then turned to Ye Xuan and inquired, “By the way, Ye Xuan, when do you plan to come back to Shangjing after you leave this time?”

Since Ye Xuan had made an agreement with the Zhan Family for one month, he would definitely return within the time limit!

Otherwise, if the young master of the Zhan Family really died in ten days, it would be a complete fallout with them, and the Wu Family would be in big trouble.

Ye Xuan calculated the time and said, “Probably in a week or two, but it’s uncertain, depending on when I finish my business there. But you needn’t worry, that young master of the Zhan Family surely won’t die.”

“That’s great! Just let me know when you’re coming, that’s all.”

Wu Jindao nodded, knowing Ye Xuan would handle the matter prudently, so he said no more.

Thinking for a moment, he changed the topic, “By the way, you don’t have a place to stay here in Shangjing, so I thought about getting you a permanent residence to facilitate your future visits here!

“I happen to have a newly built villa estate that’s vacant. Why don’t I take you to see it tomorrow? You can just move into whichever villa you like! As for contracts and related agreements, you can sign them tomorrow. I’ll handle the property papers for you, and the next time you come to Shangjing, I’ll give them to you. Of course, all of this is free!”

Hearing this, Ye Xuan quickly waved his hand, “Brother Wu, how can I accept this? The housing prices in Shangjing aren’t cheap; I couldn’t possibly take your villa! Even if I need a place to live, I should buy it myself.”

“Ye Xuan, don’t be polite with me! If it weren’t for your help today, the Wu Family would have been swallowed by the Zhan Family. Consider this as the reward for your assistance! Comparatively, if the Wu Family gave up half of our resources, it wouldn’t even compare to a hundred villas. This single villa seems downright stingy to me.” Wu Jindao said earnestly.

In fact, besides repaying Ye Xuan, he had his own plans. By gifting a villa to Ye Xuan, they could increase their contact whenever Ye Xuan came to Shangjing, strengthening their relationship!

Moreover, it would pose a deterrent to those eyeing the Wu Family, making them think twice before making a move, which would ensure the Wu Family’s safety.

Compared to these, a single villa was insignificant!

Ye Xuan smiled helplessly and said, “Brother Wu, since you say so, I can’t refuse the villa, so I’ll take advantage of you this time.”

For people of their status, a villa was a trivial matter, whether to accept it or not was no big deal, so he stopped hesitating and refusing.

Seeing Ye Xuan agree, Wu Jindao laughed heartily and said, “Ha! That’s great, consider it settled. Brother Ye, stay with me tonight, and tomorrow morning I’ll take you to see the property.”

“Alright, no problem!”

Ye Xuan replied with a smile, finalizing the matter.
