The leisurely holiday is about to end soon.
Principal Wang and others thought that the conflict between He Zongfu and Gu Bai would escalate greatly.
On the second day of the Black Swan Club’s opening, He Zongfu ca again. Everyone assud he was there to cause trouble, but unexpectedly, He Zongfu not only personally apologized to Di Li Ruo Ba and Gu Bai, but also paid out of his own pocket to treat all the custors present at that ti, spending more than 7 million RMB, which also served as a wave of advertisent for Black Swan Club.
Originally, everyone thought Gu Bai had made He Zongfu lose so much face in public that with his nature, there would surely be insane retaliation. Unexpectedly, in just one day, the situation turned dramatically; He Zongfu not only chickened out, but also offered 7 million RMB to apologize, making everyone feel the terrifying influence behind Gu Bai, especially Di Li Ruo Ba, whose eyes were sparkling with hearts when she looked at Gu Bai.
Gu Bai, who knew the inside story, appeared unusually calm instead. With Elder Xun and Elder Tu personally putting pressure on He Zongfu, even He Zongfu’s father, He Fangshan, had to concede. Did He Zongfu dare to continue stirring things up? This support from the two elders was like using heavy artillery to deal with mosquitoes.
As the school opening tis varied in different regions, Gu Bai had also completed the second of his six upgrade tasks.

"Task 6: Task content unknown. (Complete the first 5 main tasks to obtain the full content of this task.)
Task reward: 30 billion RMB, unknown reward."
Gu Bai reclined on the hotel’s large sofa, looking at Task 6 on the system panel, nodding slightly.
As the various main tasks gradually completed, Task 6 also provided a hint, but remained quite mysterious.
However, Gu Bai had a hunch that Task 6 should be very important, possibly more important than the previous five main tasks combined.
As for the other tasks, except for the comrcial mogul which still has so distance to go, the 1 billion reputation and spending romance are on the verge of completion.
Spending romance is manageable; although there are currently only 7 females with intimate contact, Gu Bai can complete it at any ti if he wishes. Just the twin sister flowers from Goryeo can readily contribute 2 points to task completion.
The problem of 1 billion reputation points is relatively difficult. Most of the people in Hua Country who can generate reputation points for Gu Bai have already done so. Although there are 1.4 billion people, the remaining few billion are mostly special groups with little contact with the internet, so to complete this task, he should venture abroad and reap so gains.
As Gu Bai looked at the 11-digit balance of 17 billion in his card, Principal Wang called.
"Gu Bai, the house you wanted to see has been arranged, is there ti now to go have a look together?"
Listening to Principal Wang, Gu Bai replied, "So soon?"
"These top luxury hos, although they’re hyped up outside, are actually just like that. Seeing that you’re such a big buyer, when others get the news, wouldn’t they co looking for you first?"
"Alright then, I’m free now, let’s go have a look."
Having agreed on a ti with Principal Wang, Gu Bai hung up the phone.
He had co to the Capital City several tis before, always staying at hotels. Convenient as it was, it still didn’t feel right. A divine rich shouldn’t be without his own property in the Capital City, especially since Xu Beibei is participating in Creation Camp 111. He would soon have to return to Shanghai, leaving her a place to stay.
.................
Two in the afternoon.
Gu Bai and Principal Wang arrived punctually at Erlongzha Road, West Yuanming Garden Road in the Capital City’s Haidian District.
Few might know this address, but ntion the nearby open scenic area, and no one would be clueless.
Yihe Garden.
The house Gu Bai wanted to buy was a property close to Yihe Garden, located in one of the most exclusive villa districts in the Capital City: Yihetuan Original Villa District.
The city’s real estate prices need no elaboration. Never mind villas; even an ordinary three-bedroom apartnt in a bustling area could cost tens of millions. Villas in the Yihetuan Original District start at over a hundred million.
The entire villa district spans 147 mu, planned with 91 official residences ranging from 900 to 3000 square ters in nine types. What Gu Bai ca to see today was the most prestigious building king among these 91 mansions, which had been hyped to 800 million over 12 years, once reigning as the number one residential property in the Capital City until it was bought by a mysterious buyer, and news about the mansion faded away.
With the booming real estate industry in Hua Country, especially in the Capital City, prices were constantly changing. Forrly the top mansion, it had long been outdone. A few years ago, a Capital City’s Houhai Prince’s Courtyard spread over ten thousand square ters valued at 1.5 billion appeared online. Initially, Gu Bai planned to buy that courtyard but abandoned the idea upon inspection.
It’s not that the courtyard was bad; it simply didn’t suit him.
While the courtyard was worth 1.5 billion, its symbolic significance outweighed its practical value. Without the Capital City courtyard na, it was just a slightly luxurious large residence. Perhaps it appeals greatly to the older generation here, but Gu Bai’s aesthetics didn’t align with it. Wealthy individuals likely shared Gu Bai’s sentints; otherwise, the courtyard wouldn’t sit unsold for years.
The driver of Principal Wang’s Bentley business car parked at the Yihetuan Original Villa District’s entrance. Security guards busied themselves as Gu Bai and Principal Wang sat in the backseat, smiling and chatting.
A few minutes later, several gasping staff mbers rushed to the car.
"Excuse , are you Mr. Wang and Mr. Gu?"
Since Principal Wang arranged the purchase details, Gu Bai remained silent in the car, leaving the conversation to Principal Wang.
"Yes, it’s us."
"Well, the owner of Villa 91 is waiting for you two. We’re here to guide you over."
Principal Wang nodded, instructing the driver to proceed slowly within the villa district while several staff boarded the sightseeing shuttle ahead.
Prior to arriving, Gu Bai researched the basic information of Yihetuan District online. Walking around now, he found that the surroundings indeed mirrored the online descriptions.
In landscaping, architectural materials, and equipnt, it inherited the essence of Hua Country’s classical architecture, choosing to blend western thods with Chinese soul as the design line to create a unique Chinese official residence exterior. anwhile, the interior space layout adopted the basic courtyard structure but transford the tiered flat configuration into a three-dinsional form. The Yihetuan Original selected European millennial stone, spent five years collecting over a thousand precious mature trees, employing vegetation and water systems to extend the villa district’s landscape as an extension of Yihe Garden’s rear lake.
Villa 91 is the building king. Although numbered last, its actual position lies at the very center of the villa district, adhering to the Hua Country concept of central superiority in design.
A few minutes later, passing lush green areas, the vehicle finally arrived at Villa 91.
Several people were already waiting at the villa entrance.
Principal Wang and Gu Bai both alighted from the car.
"Welco Mr. Wang and Mr. Gu to Yihetuan Original. I am the butler of this villa, Tino Rodlin."
At the entrance, a tall white middle-aged man greeted Gu Bai and Principal Wang with standard Mandarin, dressed in a black butler’s tailcoat, displaying a certain resemblance to a dieval noble butler.
In 12 years, a millionaire could spend 800 million on a house, hiring an excellent western butler wasn’t surprising to Gu Bai and Principal Wang. They smiled, nodding in response.
"Mr. Warner has been waiting for you two for quite so ti; please follow ."
Tino Rodlin slightly bowed, gesturing for them to enter the villa courtyard.
"Mr. Warner?"
Gu Bai, invited by Tino Rodlin, stepped inside the villa courtyard but couldn’t resist asking Principal Wang in confusion.
Principal Wang shrugged, indicating he wasn’t sure.
"I don’t know much either. The buyer of Villa 91 was always mysterious, and this ti they contacted after releasing the purchase request. I don’t know more than you do."
Hearing their conversation, Tino Rodlin turned and smiled, explaining: "Mr. Warner is only a temporary resident of the villa. He’s handling the sale for the real owner."
Upon Tino Rodlin’s explanation, Gu Bai and Principal Wang exchanged a look of puzzlent.
Buying a house, with such a mysterious owner?
What kind of ga is this?
Still, despite the confusion, having co this far, they couldn’t abandon the purchase because the seller was too mysterious. Regardless of how mysterious the seller was, it had nothing to do with them. As long as they could negotiate successfully and the procedures could proceed normally, it wouldn’t matter to Gu Bai even if the seller wasn’t human.
