Chapter 513: Chapter 321: The Belly Hasn’t Grown Much Yet!
Lake View Apartnts.
After Sheng Xinhua moved out of her ho, she bought an apartnt near the Imperial First Military Academy.
First, it was for the freedom to drink, and second, for the convenience of getting to work.
After all, her main job was as a professor at the Literary College of the Imperial First Military Academy.
Next in line was drinking.
Tang Fei personally escorted Sheng Xinhua, who had just recovered from a severe poisoning, ho. Sheng Xinhua parked the car with practiced ease that was almost heartbreaking in her usual parking spot, then the two took the elevator to the thirty-seventh floor of her apartnt.
Tang Fei watched the numbers climb rapidly on the elevator’s electronic panel and asked, “Why live so high up?”
Sheng Xinhua glanced at Tang Fei and said, “In Phoenix City, every inch of land is gold. Do you think everyone can live in a little villa with a yard like yours?”
Tang Fei had been in New Star for over two years now and had co to understand so of the basic prices and living common sense in the Phoenix Empire.
The villa gifted by Phoenix could be valued at about seventy or eighty million star currency with the current market rates.
It indeed was a great gift.
“Others may not be able, but Mr. Sheng definitely can,” Tang Fei said with a smile.
“Do you know how much money I make a month? I have to buy pretty clothes, beautiful shoes, perfus, face masks, makeup, beauty serums, hair growth serums, and not to ntion alcohol… Which of these don’t cost money?” Sheng Xinhua counted on her fingers as she pointed out her financial situation to Tang Fei.
“After deducting these, there’s hardly a few left. Where would I get the money to buy such an expensive villa? Even this apartnt, I could only buy it outright with the help from Lao i.”
“You are the daughter of the Finance Minister, who holds the empire’s purse strings… If push cos to shove, why not let him embezzle a bit?” Tang Fei suggested mischievously.
In fact, given Sheng Xinhua’s status, earning money should have been extrely easy.
She could rely accept a project, approve a docunt; she wouldn’t even need to show up, and those businessn would have the profits divided out for her.
Not to ntion buying a villa, buying an entire villa complex would be done in the blink of an eye.
Take Yu Bainian, who she had beat up recently, for example—he owns dozens of companies in industries like military contracting, technology, infrastructure, finance, mining, transportation, etc., and participates in nearly all the high-profit industries.
He built an Imperial Mansion and reserved the entire top floor for his own enjoynt.
Was he really a gifted business prodigy?
No, he didn’t need any talent; all he needed was connections.
The daughter of the Finance Minister, the intimate friend of the Princess—she would find making money no harder than Yu Bainian.
However, that clearly wasn’t the path Sheng Xinhua wished to take.
She would rather mooch drinks from Phoenix than use such thods to earn money to buy alcohol.
This woman lived freely and with clarity.
She was the smartest person Tang Fei had ever t.
And crucially, she was also beautiful and sexy…
Sheng Xinhua, squinting her eyes, sized up Tang Fei and said, “Fine, you talk to him, let him figure out a way to embezzle so… that way, we, his kin, can also live a good life for a few more years.”
Thinking of Sheng Jing’s serious expression, Tang Fei dismissed the suicidal thought and said, “Never mind, never mind, I think living in an apartnt is quite nice too. It will be like standing at a great height, with a view over all the mountains. Living higher ans seeing farther.”
Sheng Xinhua pointed to a scenery outside the observation elevator and said, “Do you see Luoxia Lake over there?”
“I see it,” Tang Fei nodded.
“You studied at the Imperial First Military Academy, so you should know how important Luoxia Lake is to this area or to all of Phoenix City… If you buy a higher floor, you can enjoy the distant view of Luoxia Lake while drinking on the balcony. That would certainly improve the ambiance for drinking.”
Tang Fei looked at Sheng Xinhua with a mixed expression of laughter and tears, and asked, “Did you buy such a high floor just for drinking?”
“Of course.” Sheng Xinhua declared as if it were the most natural thing in the world, “Is there anything more important than that?”
“…”
“Think about it…” Sheng Xinhua licked his lips and said, “On such a high balcony, with the beautiful scenery of Luoxia Lake right before your eyes… Wouldn’t doing sothing else be quite thrilling?”
“…”
Tang Fei suspected she was hinting at sothing naughty.
And he had plenty of evidence.
3701, that was Sheng Xinhua’s apartnt.
Sheng Xinhua pressed the fingerprint password and the room opened in response.
He then said to Tang Fei, “Co on, leave your fingerprint too.”
“Isn’t that unnecessary?” Tang Fei voiced his refusal.
“How is it unnecessary?” Sheng Xinhua grabbed Tang Fei’s finger and pressed it down, saying, “I’ve already told Lao i that the two of us are going to cohabit… Be serious, don’t let Lao i spot any flaws. We’re living together and you don’t even have a fingerprint lock. Does that make any sense?”
Tang Fei gave a wry smile and said, “Before you told Auntie… you could have given a heads up. Isn’t this deception?”
Sheng Xinhua rolled his eyes with a disdainful look, “To cover for you and Phoenix, I’m willing to be the ‘third party’… Isn’t that deception? I take you ho for dinner and say you’re my boyfriend… Isn’t that deception?”
“So it’s deception when it benefits , but when it benefits you guys… it’s a white lie?”
“I’ll do it. Isn’t that enough?” Tang Fei was left speechless by Sheng Xinhua’s retort.
In many ways, she really had helped him a lot.
“It’s just a fingerprint. It’s not like I can get pregnant from it.”
“…”
Following the prompt from the smart system, Tang Fei left his fingerprint, which Sheng Xinhua authorized as the unlocking password.
Sheng Xinhua’s apartnt was full of high-tech, entirely managed and controlled by smart robots.
Sheng Xinhua led Tang Fei around the apartnt, pushed open a room with a white color sche, and said, “This is the master bedroom, where we sleep. Do you want to feel if our bed is soft enough?”
“…..”
“Lao i cos, we’ll say this,” Sheng Xinhua explained, “It’s not like we’re really going to sleep together. Of course, if you want to sleep with , I have no objections.”
“…”
Then, taking Tang Fei to the adjoining room, he said, “If you don’t want to sleep with , you can just sleep in this room on your own…”
Tang Fei widened his eyes and asked, “Isn’t it just a pretense? I still have to live here?”
“Of course.” Sheng Xinhua nodded resolutely, “The act must be carried out in full. If you don’t even have a room here, would Lao i believe we’re cohabiting?”
“…”
“Then we’ll say we sleep together?”
“That works too.” Sheng Xinhua nodded, gently stroking his flat belly and said, “But knowing Lao i, if the two of us are together and my belly isn’t getting bigger… she’s bound to suspect sothing’s wrong with your abilities.”
“…”
