When Wei Haihong answered the phone, he chuckled and said, "Old Chen, what are you doing?" "What else could I be doing at your Hongcheng Garden? Buying a house, of course. Your saleswoman won't sell, and the manager won't come out either. Haha, Old Chen, why don't you come over yourself? That's fine, so I don't get so angry that I smash up your shop!"
Wei Haihong made the call with a smile. Xiao Ying, however, was a little puzzled. Did he know some of the higher-ups at Hongcheng? She didn't know who the owner of the Hongcheng Garden was, but she did know the company's general manager and the managers of various departments.
The room fell silent for a moment. Zhou Xuan wanted to tell Wei Haihong to go back, but seeing his unfriendly expression, he didn't say anything. However, he kept glancing at the chests of the saleswomen in the hall, as if his eyes could see through their clothes.
Wei Xiaoqing, however, watched Wei Haihong with great interest, eager to see what her uncle was up to.
Suddenly, a woman in her late twenties hurried out of the sales office. She was also wearing an Armani suit. Although she was older, she had a more glamorous and worldly air about her.
Wei Haihong noticed that she looked somewhat familiar, but couldn't immediately place her.
The woman, however, wore a broad smile and called out from afar, "Third Brother, what brings you here? I only found out after my boss called me, having gotten my men involved in this mess!" Xiao Ying turned to look at the woman, noticing her smile was directed at Wei Haihong, and exclaimed in surprise, "Manager Yang, you know him?"
Manager Yang snorted and said, "You need to have the right work attitude. If you cause trouble, no one can take responsibility for you!"
When Wei Haihong heard Xiao Ying say "Manager Yang," a thought suddenly struck him, and he chuckled, "Yang Wei, it's you! I almost didn't remember you. Didn't you used to work at Northern Securities? What happened to your career change?"
"Third Brother, you must have a bad memory, but how could an ordinary girl like me possibly catch your eye!" Yang Wei said with a mix of laughter and reproach. "I have no choice but to make a living. If one door closes, another opens. So I came to Hongcheng to beg for a living!"
Zhou Xuan felt nauseous. Yang Wei wasn't actually ugly; she was quite pretty, although she was a bit older. But her words were so affectedly sweet that it was unbearable.
A smiling face is always welcome, especially from old acquaintances!
Wei Haihong felt embarrassed to continue giving them the cold shoulder, so he smiled and said, "Your saleswomen need to work on their manners. You think we don't have money? Even if we don't buy a house, you can't just ignore us because we're not doing business."
Yang Wei said with a forced smile, "Third Brother, can you still hold a grudge against her? Chairman Chen will be here soon and will join you in a moment. He can give you whichever building you want. Now, let me apologize to you first, okay? I'll just have to pay for my own 87 pounds. I'll accept whatever punishment you want, Third Brother!"

"Gao said that Yang Wei's words initially made Zhou Shang feel nauseous, but now Wen's words were much more palatable. Fei Xincang got goosebumps all over, feeling like a caterpillar was crawling on her body."
It seems a bit cheesy, but it's actually funny.
Wei Xiaoqing blinked and asked Yang Wei, "Can I ask you a question?"
Yang Wei tilted her head and glanced at Wei Xiaoqing. A hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes. This girl was beautiful and young, and her relationship with Wei Haihong was probably not simple. It seemed that she was getting old. Women get scared as they get older.
However, Yang Wei is no ordinary person. As the saying goes, one real estate saleswoman is worth ten, and the saleswomen recruited by this top-tier luxury residence are even more outstanding than others, selected from among the best. So, how could her position as manager be simple?
Yang Wei looked at Wei Xiaoqing's beautiful and youthful face and smiled slightly: "Miss, you're quite resourceful. Speak up. What's the problem?" She then glanced at Wei Haihong.
Wei Haihong immediately understood the meaning behind Yang Wei's words. Needless to say, she implied that Wei Xiaoqing had some kind of shady relationship with him, and he knew he was in trouble! Wei Xiaoqing was very clever; how could she not understand what she meant?
Wei Haihong and Yang Wei had a few sexual encounters in the past, but Wei Haihong was always out partying. However, he never had any thoughts of separation from his wife, Xue Hua. In his heart, family was the most important thing. A man can have affairs, but he cannot be heartless, much less shameless—this was his principle. Of course, he was never stingy with money when it came to women he had affairs with; money was fine, but feelings were not.
Wei Xiaoqing smiled and asked, "Have you slept with him?" She pointed her fair finger at her uncle, Wei Haihong.
Wei Haihong couldn't help but blush. He shouted, "Xiaoqing!"
Yang Wei wasn't embarrassed at all, and laughed, "Oh, you're jealous, aren't you? I can't answer that question. If you want to know, ask Third Brother yourself."
"
Wei Xiaoqing then asked Wei Haihong with a smile, "Uncle, she asked me to ask you herself. What do you think?"
When Yang Wei heard Wei Xiaoqing call Wei Haihong "uncle", she was taken aback for a moment. Then, looking at Wei Haihong's expression, she immediately realized that she had misjudged the situation. It turned out that this girl was his niece!
Fortunately, Yang Wei was a seasoned veteran. Although she understood everything, she never truly admitted to the matter. She smiled awkwardly and said, "I was just joking, little sister, don't take it seriously. Hehe, Third Brother, how could you possibly think highly of me?"
Just then, three or four more people walked in through the sales hall. Yang Wei immediately exclaimed, "Chairman Chen has arrived!"
Zhou Xuan noticed that among the group, the man in his fifties at the front exuded an imposing aura, while the others were clearly just lackeys based on their actions and expressions. The man, seeing Wei Haihong from afar, greeted him with a smile, "Brother Hong, it's rare for you to come here and show off your power, huh?"
Wei Haihong still stood up and shook hands with him, saying, "Old Chen, your temple is too big for me to enter. If I did, I wouldn't be welcome."
Chairman Chen's face was still full of smiles. He held Wei Haihong's hand tightly, patted his shoulder gently, and said with a smile, "Third brother, the little girl is ignorant. Didn't you come to look at houses? Then look at houses first. As long as it's a house in my Hongcheng, whichever one you like, I'll give you. Even if it's already sold, I'll bring it back to you, okay? We'll set up another table tonight. I'll have that girl apologize to you. You can apologize however you want."
Chairman Chen made the same mistake as Yang Wei, but it's not surprising, since no one would have known that Wei Haihong brought his own niece out.
His words were ambiguous, clearly implying that Xiao Ying could apologize to him however she wanted, which naturally included sleeping with him.
Wei Haihong came to buy a house for no reason, but this embarrassing incident happened. Feeling awkward, he said, "Let's get down to business. Old Chen, I brought my brother Xiao Zhou to buy a house today. This Xiao Zhou, Zhou Xuan, I hope you can take good care of him in the future. We're like brothers!"
Hearing Wei Haihong's serious and earnest words, Chairman Chen paid close attention to Zhou Xuan. He smiled and shook hands with Zhou Xuan, saying, "Little Zhou, it's a pleasure to meet you. Brother Hong's brother is my brother too, no problem."
To prevent Chairman Chen from letting anything slip, Wei Haihong quickly introduced Wei Xiaoqing and **: "This is my niece Xiaoqing, my eldest brother's youngest daughter, and this is my friend **!"
Upon hearing this, Chairman Chen's face immediately became much more serious. He chuckled and said, "Oh, so it's Miss Wei. I was wondering why I'd never seen such a beautiful girl in Beijing. It's Sister Wei. No wonder!"
Chen Dong's ability to change his expression so quickly and without any pretense was truly admirable, even to Wei Haihong. He was a shrewd old man after all. His current expression was as if he had never mentioned Yang Wei's apology; he was completely serious, even somewhat righteous.
Wei Xiaoqing had originally wanted to mutter a few threatening words, but Old Chen was very polite to her. Although it was a bit affected, he was good at flattering her; what girl doesn't like to hear him say something about how pretty she is? So she held back and didn't say anything more.
Chairman Chen was decisive and efficient, pulling Wei Haihong along and saying, "Third brother, let's not dawdle any longer, let's go look at houses."
Once outside the square, Yang Wei and Xiao Ying called over two shuttle buses. The group of seven or eight people boarded the two buses, and Chairman Chen waved his hand, instructing the drivers to head south.
Chen Zhong pulled Wei Haihong into the car. Of course, Yang Wei and Xiao Ying also sat next to him. However, they sat properly and stopped talking and laughing.
Zhou Xuan, Wei Xiaoqing, and Achang rode in one car. Passing the old and Changhe rivers, they saw that the villas in Wenbian were indeed built in the same style as those in Qinchuan, Zhou County to the north, but with much larger building and garden areas. The distance between the villas was also much wider, at least 500 meters. Each villa seemed to be an independent structure nestled in the mountains, quiet yet not isolated. The designer had clearly put a lot of thought into it.
When the car arrived at Building No. 8, Chairman Chen stopped it and said with a smile, "Building No. 8, there are twelve buildings here in total. Building No. 8 is the most auspicious number, what do you think?"
Wei Haihong got out of the car and waved to Zhou Xuan, saying, "Brother, come and take a look. If you like it, buy it."
He was stunned for a moment, only now realizing that it was Zhou Xuan who had bought the house. But he was still confused. Even if his younger brother had taken the money, there was no way he could afford this house. The one to the north cost over 40 million, and this one would probably be even more expensive. Over 40 million! Even if it were just paper, it would still be a mountain of money!
Could it be that Brother Hong bought it for him? That's not good. You're paid to do something, but what can Diwa do with his physique and abilities? Although Brother Hong seems like a good person, serving a powerful person is like walking on thin ice. People aren't always easy to get along with. I should find some time to call Diwa back to the countryside. He was the one who brought back the four million this time. Let's assume he got 20% of it. Let him do some business in the countryside. It's safer there than here.
