They took the subway and walked for a long time before Wang Shuyun and Zhou Xueguo arrived at the entrance of Yang Garden Residence.

Seeing Zhou Hao, Wang Shuyun quickly stepped forward and asked with concern, “Little Hao, are you alright?”

When Zhou Hao saw his parents, he said excitedly, “Mom, I’m fine. Let’s go. I’ll bring you to see the new house.”

“New house?”

Wang Shuyun’s face was full of question marks, and Zhou Xueguo was also puzzled. However, the two of them patiently followed Zhou Hao into Yang Garden Residence and arrived at a villa.

“Xiaohao, why did you drag me here?” Wang Shuyun couldn’t help but ask, “I know you’ve always wanted to change your living environment. If you wait any longer, I’ll definitely let you stay in this house.”

Zhou Xueguo sighed as he listened. He blamed himself for being useless..

Zhou Hao smiled and said, “Mom, there’s no need to wait. This house will be ours from now on!”

“Huh?”

The two of them were somewhat dumbfounded.

“Let’s go in and take a look.” Zhou Hao smiled and said, “If it’s not suitable, we can exchange it for another one.”

As he spoke, he took out his keys and opened the door to the villa.

Seeing this, Wang Shuyun was stunned.

Zhou Xueguo was even more dumbfounded.

However, the moment she reacted, Wang Shuyun asked, “Xiaohao, tell me honestly. Where did you get this key?”

Zhou Xueguo also raised his voice. “Son, didn’t we teach you not to do anything illegal!”

Zhou Hao did not know whether to laugh or to cry. He hurriedly took out his property deed. “Mom, Dad, this is really our house. Look, it’s written on the property deed.”

Wang Shuyun and Zhou Xueguo hurriedly went forward.

Glancing over, the two of them were stunned again.

“Little… Little Hao, you… you bought this villa?” Wang Shuyun’s voice trembled.

“Son, where… where did you get the money?” Zhou Xueguo felt dumbfounded.

One had to know that this villa cost one million yuan.

How many years would he have to work to earn a million yuan?

Wang Shuyun gritted her teeth and said anxiously, “Little Hao, quickly return the house and get the money back. We can’t do anything illegal. We’ll bring you to confess if you did anything illegal.”

Zhou Xueguo also thought of the seriousness of the problem.

His son was only a year three student, so how could he have so much money? He must have done something illegal.

Zhou Hao was speechless.

But it did make sense.

As a year three student, he had not even broken through to the first level of blood essence, so how could he get a million yuan? Apart from breaking the law, there was no other way.

In fact, the source of his money was indeed not legitimate. But no matter what, he had obtained it with his strength.

“Mom, I really didn’t do anything illegal.”

After hesitating for a moment, he helplessly told her about the school tournament. At the same time, he also said that despite making money from the bet, his primary goal was to help his classmate.

Moreover, he had also taken out the invoice from the betting company.

Wang Shuyun did not understand this and passed it to Zhou Xueguo to let him read it.

Zhou Xueguo looked at it seriously and took out his phone to check the map and company.

After confirming it a few times, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. “Honey, it seems our son is telling the truth.”

Wang Shuyun’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Xueguo, does that mean that Little Hao really made more than a million yuan?”

Zhou Xueguo nodded heavily, but he quickly thought of something and questioned with a sunken face, “No, where did you get the money for the bet?”

Zhou Hao’s heart skipped a beat. He hadn’t expected this. His mind raced. Seeing his parents’ expressions turn uglier and uglier, he hurriedly said, “I borrowed it from a classmate.”

“Classmate? Which classmate would lend you so much money?” Zhou Xueguo frowned deeply.

Zhou Hao lowered his head and said, “It’s… it’s Xu Ling.”

“Xu Ling? Why would she lend you so much money?” Zhou Xueguo was still suspicious.

“Because I helped her once before, and this time, I coincidentally heard that someone was going to attack those people, so I took the gamble,” Zhou Hao braced himself and said.

“Is that really true?” Zhou Xueguo stared at Zhou Hao.

“Old Zhou, stop pulling a long face. We watched our son grow up. How could he possibly do anything illegal?” Wang Shuyun hurriedly said.

Zhou Xueguo thought about it and agreed. Although his son’s talent was ordinary, his character was still reliable. He pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, “Son, don’t gamble on something like this again!”

Zhou Hao hurriedly said, “I know, Dad. This is the last time. I definitely won’t do it again.”

Zhou Xueguo’s expression improved a little. He was very proud that his son had earned more money than him.

However, at the thought of that matter, his eyes still revealed worry.

Next, Zhou Hao brought his parents around the villa. Although it was empty, it looked very warm.

“Mom, let’s go shopping tonight. We’ll buy all the necessary furniture and also buy a few sets of clothes and other necessities for you,” Zhou Hao said excitedly.

Wang Shuyun did not want to disturb her son’s excitement and agreed immediately. Therefore, the three of them went to the nearby mall to buy some things.

It was not until 11 pm that they returned to the poor community where they used to live. As for the furniture they bought, the shops would deliver it to them personally tomorrow.

“Well well, look who it is. Just in time. Hurry up and pay the rent you owe!” The fat woman who had been guarding the door yelled out the moment she saw Zhou Hao and his parents.

Several families nearby secretly looked over.

Zhou Hao threw the 3000 yuan in front of the fat woman. “This is the rent we owe you. We’ll move out tomorrow!”

Zhou Hao was not fond of this extremely snobbish landlord.

With that said, he pulled his mom into the room.

Zhou Xueguo nodded slightly and apologized to the few families nearby. “Thank you for taking care of us all these years. We’ll leave the community tomorrow.”

In the living room.

Wang Shuyun sat on the sofa and complained, “Little Hao, even if you have money, you can’t waste it like this. You still have to buy things one at a time.”

“I know, Mom. I’ll be careful in the future. Just this once.” Zhou Hao massaged Wang Shuyun’s shoulders.

“Indeed, I receive the most love from my own son. Pinch the left side a few more times.”

After talking for a while, Wang Shuyun let Zhou Hao go back to his room to sleep. He still had to go to school tomorrow.

At almost twelve o’clock, Zhou Hao, who had been browsing on his phone, was about to sleep when he heard deliberately lowered voices from his parents’ bedroom.
