Chapter 116 - They Are Not Human
Shortly after, Ye Hao's phone buzzed with a new ssage.
Upon seeing the amount displayed, he imdiately called Soong Leji.
“Ye Hao, you got the money, right?”
“Soong family's head, the Leng family head has given a villa. And you're sending this pittance?” Ye Hao's words made Soong Leji inwardly groan.
He also silently berated Leng Hongchang.
Leng Hongchang had gifted Ye Hao a villa without giving him any prior notice.
“Ye Hao, there's been a misunderstanding,” Soong Leji hastily explained, “That was just a little sothing for a al, certainly not the full amount.”
“Oh, is that so?” Ye Hao responded and hung up the phone.
In the art of gift-giving, it's a major faux pas to underdeliver.
After a brief consultation, the Soong family's executives decided to give Ye Hao two hundred million.
Considering a villa's price tag started at one hundred million, and there was no telling if Leng Hongchang would cover the cost of furnishing, they opted to give Ye Hao the full amount in one fell swoop.
Soon enough, Ye Hao's phone chid with the deposit notification.
He checked the figure and a smile spread across his face.
Two hundred million!
Without delay, Ye Hao transferred the entire sum to Tang Pianpian.
Tang Pianpian, upon receiving the notification, ca running out, astonished.
“How did you co by such a large sum of money?”
“It was given to by Soong Leji.”
“Okay then.”
“With this two hundred million, your company should be able to accelerate its growth.”
“Indeed.”
Leng Hongchang was nothing if not prompt.
Roughly an hour later, he called Ye Hao personally.
“The villa in the Sea of Love is ready for you. When would you like to move in?”
“What about the interior?”
“It's been exquisitely furnished already.”
“Tomorrow, then.”
“I'll arrange for the movers to co tomorrow.”
“There's no need for that, Leng Xue can help out.”
“Understood.”
After the call, Ye Hao went to the master bedroom.
“Pianpian, let's pack our things. We're moving tomorrow.”
“To where?”
“To the Sea of Love Villa District.”
“Isn't a villa there worth at least one hundred million?”
“That's not for us to worry about.”
Ye Hao then retreated to his bedroom, diving back into his book of idioms.
With Ye Hao's current reading speed, he was able to take in three lines of text at once.
As a result, he didn't take long to get through the hefty idiom dictionary.
In just one evening, Ye Hao had gone through all the material Xu ngng had given him.
The reason he had previously ntioned needing two to three days was partly to avoid astonishing Xu ngng and partly because he was concerned about not having enough ti.
At seven o'clock the next morning, Leng Xue arrived at Blossomfall Chateau in her car.
Shortly thereafter, Ye Hao, Tang Pianpian, Qingqing, Momo, and Sugar ca down, each carrying their belongings.
“Who are these three?” Leng Xue asked, taken aback by the three stunning girls.
“They're my friends.”
“Your friends?” Leng Xue's gaze was laced with skepticism.
Sugar was as attractive as she was, and Qingqing and Momo were even more beautiful.
How did Ye Hao co to know so many gorgeous won?
“Will your car be able to hold all this?” Ye Hao inquired as he opened the trunk of Leng Xue's sedan.
The two suitcases packed the trunk to its limit.
“There's plenty of room for luggage in the back of my car,” Ye Hao said, opening the rear door of the sedan.
Sugar and Momo proceeded to load all the luggage into the back of Leng Xue's vehicle.
Then Ye Hao took his place in the front passenger seat.
“Let's go.”
The three girls, anwhile, got into Tang Pianpian's car.
About half an hour later, they reached the Sea of Love residential area.
“Your villa is number eight,” Leng Xue indicated, pointing to a nearby villa.
“The parking is on the lower level,” she said after parking the car, pointing to the side. “There are three underground parking spaces and two more above ground, which should be more than enough for your vehicles.”
“Do all the villas co with a swimming pool?”
“Right over here,” Leng Xue pointed next to the parking area. “Unless it's an exceptionally large villa, the swimming pools are typically on the lower level.”
“Co with ,” Leng Xue led them up from the basent.
“The yard is roughly half an acre, and the villa spans three floors, not including the basent. It features six bedrooms, six bathrooms, two living rooms, and a kitchen.”
“In addition to that, there's a gym and a small bar on the third floor,” Leng Xue explained as she detailed the house's features to Ye Hao and the others.
Ye Hao looked around, thoroughly impressed.
Now this was a villa!
In comparison, his previous residence seed nothing more than a chicken coop.
“All the furniture here is custom-made in Europe, and the appliances are top-of-the-line dostic brands,” Leng Xue continued, providing an exhaustive tour of the villa.
It was clear that Leng Xue had made a significant effort the day before.
“I need to head to class,” Leng Xue announced.
“Pianpian, if there's anything you need to buy, take Qingqing and Momo with you,” Ye Hao instructed gently. “Make sure they don't wander off.”
“We're not children,” Momo retorted, her lips pursed in protest.
“You say you're not a child, but who was it that ate a lollipop last night?” Ye Hao teased.
“How did you know?” Momo's cheeks flushed with embarrassnt.
“Take a guess.”
“Just tell !”
“Where's the fun in that?” Ye Hao quipped as he picked up a packet of docunts and said to Leng Xue, “We should get going.”
“Mm-hmm.”
While in the car, Ye Hao sent a ssage to Xu ngng.
“I've finished reviewing all the docunts. Do you have anything new?”
Xu ngng replied promptly, “You've already finished?”
“Yes.”
“I've dug up three more books from the library. Want to bring them over later?”
“I'll be in class for another half hour or so. I'll ssage you then.”
“Okay.”
As soon as Ye Hao pocketed his phone, Leng Xue turned to him with a questioning look. “Who's the girl you're chatting with now?”
“Miss Leng, do you have to view in that light?”
“How else should I view you?”
“Why do I find that question so unpleasant?”
“What's the deal with those three girls?”
“They've been entrusted to my care by soone else.”
“Entrusted to you?” Leng Xue's eyes widened in disbelief. “Are you joking?”
“See, I tell you the truth, and you doubt ,” Ye Hao responded with a sense of resignation.
“Fine, I believe you,” Leng Xue said, fixing her gaze on him. “But can you explain why soone would entrust three lovely girls to you?”
“Because I'm handso.”
Leng Xue made a gagging face.
“What's that supposed to an?”
“Handso is the last word I'd associate with you.”
“You're blatantly lying.”
“You're dodging the question again.” Leng Xue suddenly had a realization. “Who exactly are those three girls?”
“I told you, you might not believe .”
“I'll believe you.”
“Seriously?”
“Seriously.”
“In fact, they're not human.”
“Ye Hao, you're not taking this seriously.” Leng Xue lost her temper.
