Escorted by the saleswoman, Liu Yong and Li Changle departed from the bustling sales department and ventured into the serene villa area. A profound sense of contentment enveloped them as they stepped into the vicinity.

[ " I must say, the verdant ambiance of this villa area alone deserves a score of at least 95 points, " ] remarked Liu Yong.

[ " Moreover, the design and layout are impeccable, with picturesque roads branching out in every direction. " ]

Casting their eyes around, they realised that despite the vast expanse of the villa area, it only housed a modest collection of 72 villas.

[ " To reach Villa No. 16, we'll need a car, " ] the saleswoman informed them, pointing towards the sightseeing car provided by the sales department. 

[ " It will take us directly to the entrance of Villa No. 16. " ]

As they approached their destination, Li Changle couldn't help but gasp in awe. 

[ " Wow, that's breathtaking! " ]

Li Changle's astonishment prompted the saleswoman to introduce the villa swiftly. 

[ " Villa No. 16 sprawls across 5 acres of land, boasting both front and rear gardens, as well as a private swimming pool. " ]

Eager to explore further, the trio embarked on a comprehensive villa tour. The saleswoman took her time, dedicating a half-hour to acquainting them with every detail and feature.

After thoroughly inspecting the premises, Liu Yong's satisfaction was palpable. The villa exhibited meticulous decoration, exuding an air of luxury. Its design was thoughtfully executed, leaving no stone unturned. The mansion appeared ready for immediate occupancy, lacking nothing, not even fresh bedding.

[ " Sir, what do you think of this villa? " ] 

The saleswoman inquired with hope in her eyes.

Liu Yong pondered for a moment, his expression radiating contentment. 

[ " Indeed, it's just right. Could you please inform me of the selling price for this villa? " ]

Delighted by Liu Yong's favourable response, the saleswoman eagerly replied, 

[ " We have clearly indicated the price here, and this villa is priced at 250 million." ]

The price tag was undeniably steep, leaving no room for debate.

But as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. And a price tag of 250 million yuan was reserved only for the crème de la crème of luxury properties. Villa No. 16 before them was undoubtedly a pinnacle of lavishness.

Such an exorbitant price commanded admiration from onlookers, leaving them in awe.

Nevertheless, Liu Yong appeared unperturbed by the hefty sum.

He casually remarked, 

[ " Well, that's within my budget. Let's proceed with the purchase; I'm ready to sign the contract. " ]

The saleswoman's expression contorted into a mix of astonishment and delight. She had been in the real estate business for a couple of years, encountering numerous hesitant customers who deliberated endlessly, bargaining relentlessly, and even resorting to emotional pleas. Meeting a customer as affluent as Liu Yong was a rarity.

[ " Sir, are you sure we can proceed with the contract immediately? " ] 

She confirmed, her voice tinged with excitement.

[ " Absolutely, " ]

  Replied Liu Yong with an air of confidence. 

[ " Yes, I will buy this villa, and we can proceed with the contract immediately. " ]

The saleswoman couldn't believe her ears. 

[ " Wow! " ] 

She exclaimed, her face displaying sheer surprise.

She had grown accustomed to clients who required extensive persuasion and multiple visits before deciding. Encountering a customer like Liu Yong, who showed such a firm resolve and willingness to proceed swiftly, was a breath of fresh air.

[ " Well then, let's return to the sales department promptly, " ] 

The saleswoman said.

After some time, the trio returned to the sales department and efficiently signed the contract. 

-Boom!

Villa No. 16 now belonged to Liu Yong and Li Changle, bringing immense joy to the couple. Hand in hand, they strolled out of the sales department, accompanied by the young lady who personally sold them the property.

The salesgirls were taken aback inside the sales department as this was the first time they had witnessed such a straightforward villa purchase. It seemed as effortless as buying a handful of side dishes at the vegetable market.

[ " He's really wealthy, that handsome guy. His girlfriend looks ecstatic, " ] remarked one of the salesgirls.

[ " I couldn't help but notice his expression while paying—250 million without batting an eye. It's incredible, " ] chimed in another.

[ " I envy Xiao Hu for making such an easy purchase. It's like picking up money, " ] said a third girl.

The sales ladies engaged in a flurry of discussion, their envy palpable, but Liu Yong and Li Changle had already driven away, leaving the sales department behind.

With their future wedding venue now secured, Liu Yong was in high spirits as he drove. 

Li Changle beamed with happiness. Villa No. 16 at Phoenix Mountain Manor would become her and Liu Yong's future home. Living in such a spacious villa promises many joyous and fulfilling days ahead. 

[ " Lele, I just realized you have a driver's license, " ]  he remarked.

[ "Liu Yong, I obtained my driver's license during college and passed all the tests. I got my C1 license in less than two months." ] 

Li Changle said.

[ " You're amazing! " ]

  Liu Yong praised. 

[ " Anyone who passes those exams is genuinely skilled. " ] 

He recalled his experience of taking the driver's license test twice before finally succeeding.

[ " Lele, let's go. I'll buy you a car; it'll make your future travels much more convenient, " ]  Liu Yong suggested.

Li Changle hesitated. 

[ " Liu Yong, that's not necessary. Such a gift would be too expensive. " ]

Waving his hand dismissively, Liu Yong insisted, 

[ " The cost doesn't matter to me. Besides, you're my future wife, so it's only right that I buy you a car. " ]

Having earned 270 million in a single day through Bawang, Liu Yong had spent 250 million on the villa. He still had 20 million left, so no matter how expensive the car was, he felt no financial pressure.

Driving his luxurious supercar, Liu Yong headed straight to a reputable 4S shop specializing in various high-end vehicles. The couple was greeted by a captivating display of prestigious cars parked in the showroom as they entered.

The salesmen in the shop watched in awe as Liu Yong drove his supercar to the front of the store. As soon as the couple stepped inside, they were warmly welcomed by several enthusiastic salesmen.

[ " Lele, which car catches your eye? You can choose any car you like," ] 

Liu Yong asked Li Changle, allowing her to select her preferred vehicle.

Standing beside them, a skilled salesman said,

[ " Madam, we have an impressive selection of sports cars, off-road vehicles, and sedans. I'll be happy to show you the models you're interested in. " ]

Li Changle, who also had a fondness for cars, secretly harboured a dream of owning one of her own.

Her gaze swept across the array of renowned vehicles on display until it landed on a striking red sports car, captivating her attention.

[ " Yong, what do you think of that car? Although, isn't it a bit too expensive? " ] 

She inquired, referring to the Porsche sports car.

Before Liu Yong could respond, the salesman immediately praised her, 

[ " Madam, you truly have an eye for beauty. I believe this Porsche sports car perfectly complements your style and temperament. " ]

Liu Yong proudly declared, 

[ " Lele, then let's purchase this car. " ]

As always, Li Changle was swift in her decision-making.

From when they entered the showroom to when Li Changle drove her new car out, no more than an hour had elapsed.

The two sports cars cruised along the road, with Liu Yong leading the way in his high-performance supercar, while Li Changle's sleek sports car followed closely behind, maintaining a distance of 20 to 30 meters.

Although the gap between the two vehicles was significant, no one dared to interfere. After all, the thought of a collision involving two such expensive cars was enough to deter anyone from getting involved.

Meanwhile, in the vastness of the Indian Ocean...

A 70,000-ton container bulk carrier from the Global Shipping Group sailed through the waters. Laden with containers, the ship was en route to Europe.

The Global Ocean Services Company underwent a name change yesterday, officially becoming the Global Ocean Shipping Group.

Inside the captain's quarters, Captain Wei Jianshe peered out at the boundless sea through the glass and spoke in a measured tone, 

[ " We're approaching the Gulf of Aden. Please inform the crew to remain vigilant. " ]

The engineer by his side said, 

[ " Old Wei, this is our third time passing through the Gulf of Aden. The previous two times went smoothly, so I don't foresee any issues this time. " ]

Wei Jianshe responded, 

[ " It's always better to be cautious. Pirates have been known to frequent the Gulf of Aden, so we mustn't let our guard down. " ]

-The following day...

The [[ " Eastern Star, " ]] a large container bulk carrier operated by the Global Shipping Group, officially entered the waters of the Gulf of Aden. Its objective was to pass through these treacherous waters, join the Red Sea, and ultimately make its way to Europe via the Suez Canal.
