Chapter 11: 11.

At Nanhe Emperor's Mall, Chen Kai's shopping spree was over. He was escorted to his car under the curious gazes of patrons leaving and entering the mall. The guards followed him to his Jetta, hiding their surprise and questions.

Why was a rich guy driving a Jetta?

Was this the real way of living for tycoons?

There goes one's logical thinking!

"For your troubles!" Chen Kai placed $2000 Yuan in Captain Xia's hands who refused it outright.

"This is our job, Mr. Chen. Please know that you will be protected by our security company at any of the branches. On your next visit, go straight to the VIP parking and we will be notified of your arrival," Captain Xia said. In all honesty, the captain received a hurried message from his company's handler. Their additional duty from this day forward, is to protect the young shareholder. The man understood the silent reason behind this and dutifully accepted.

"Hmmm. If you say so. Until next time," Chen Kai answered, bidding them goodbye.

The four men stood in a daze for a moment; watching the Jetta drive out of the parking lot. "Is it just me or did you guys feel that Mr. Chen is a bit strange?" one asked.

"It's not just you, I understand your confusion. When was the last time a person of wealth talked and treated us like people and not tools," another replied.

"Mr. Chen is a rare one. Let's go place our report and resume our normal duties," Captain Xia stated firmly to end any talk about the young shareholder.

~~~~~~~

Content with his purchases, Chen Kai was excited to see his new home. He gave Manager Bao a call to notify him of his arrival.

In a three-floor villa, a man dressed impeccably in a pressed business suit, nearing his 40s walked into the main office without knocking.

This was considered a normal occurrence as the secretary outside the office gave him a distracted wave and continued with her work.

Sitting behind a large glass desk was a man with a stern countenance in his early forties but looked ten years younger. This man was Liu Yun, a decorated army veteran and one of the original guards of the Sleeping Dragon Villa since its inception. The two men have been friends for a number of years and worked together on many development sites and properties.

Today, they were about to witness a long-lived wish come true.

"Is Mr. Chen on his way?" Liu Yun asked before lifting his head.

"Tch! Can't you give me some face as the property manager to supply you with information regarding my duties?" Manager Bao sat down unceremoniously in one of the chairs at the desk under his friend's mocking grin.

"It saves me the time from listening to you gloat about acquiring this account," Lui Yun answered honestly.

"Your honest words still annoy me."Manager Bao acted annoyed but looked more like a confused child.

"Continue with what you wanted to tell me." This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

"Fine. Two weeks' worth of groceries were sent to the villa. I currently have the delivery guy in the courtyard going through a security check. I will let you handle the packages the Lamborghini Company sent over so you can introduce yourself and the team. The handover will be done here before we escort him to the property." Manager Bao was nervous. He can only tell how mature Chen Kai was over the phone. His personal information was confidential in his company and Liu Yun's. Only his photo, his name, and his National ID were given to them.

Not fully knowing his clients made Manager Bao very nervous. His only wish is not to have an overbearing client with ludicrous demands.

Liu Yun on the other hand was curious. The villa had an offhand price of $800 but the true cost when the amenities and special features are added, will bring it near $1B Yuan.

The rich show their status in cars, villas, and accessories to complement their market-value assets. The villas in this particular district cost, from low to high, $5 Million to $400 Million.

Paying for a house that cost $1Billion was out of the question. Even if deposits were allowed for the purchase of such a grand house, they will have to think twice about doing so.

Yet, this young man acquired it in one go.

It made both men guess the strength of Chen Kai's background.

Her eyes widen at his reflex but forgot about it when she didn't get the attention she deserved.

"You insignificant little worm!"

Chen Kai ignored her and also Manager Bao who was apologizing profusely for the interference.

"Interference? You call us an interference?" The older man heard Manager Bao's words and shouted his displeasure.

"I will say this again. This is private property. No one is allowed to be on this road and beyond. Not even the residents of this district, unless you're invited and verified by the young master. Your name, I do not know but you are trespassing. Please leave." Liu Yun's words were forceful and filled with honor. This was his duty. No matter who it was, he will protect this land and its owner.

"You dare lie to me?! I am Chairman Han!. This property has been on the market for two years and yet you tell me it has an owner. Then can you tell me why our appointment was scheduled for today to tour this house," the old man bolstered. Due to his selective hearing, he didn't catch the words, 'young master'.

Chen Kai was hungry and impatient. He wanted to see his home and rest but these people were stopping him from doing so. The audacity of them claiming the right to 'see' his home because of an appointment. It was a known fact that such things can't be done.

He made an action to speak but Manager Bao stepped in front of him to handle the matter.

"Young Master Chen, please allow me to handle this. It seems like our eagerness to protect your privacy created some waves." One of the guards was beckoned over and given firm instructions in catering Chen Kai.

"Young Master. This way please," the guard said politely.

"Hey! Why the fuck are you stooping so low in the dirt? Why are you calling a worm, young master? How can you stain my house with this filth?" the young lady cursed at Manager Bao and the guard as she pointed at Chen Kai provocatively.

The old man heard this and made a move to confront him. This Villa was promised to them. They finally acquired the deposit for this regaled Villa. Having it under their name will raise the Han Family's reputation in Jiangsu. If word leaks out that a peasant like that brat entering the Villa before them, they will be a laughing stock.

The manager was quicker and mimicked Liu Yun's earlier interception, stopping the old man from any actions he plotted to do.

At that moment, Chen Kai spoke. He shot a piercing glare at the woman. Annoyance was now added to his impatience.

"Your house? Little girl, don't believe everything Daddy has to say. I guess he's trying to make up for something you definitely lack. Commander Liu, investigate this, please. Manager Bao, I leave the explanations to you. I'm too hungry to argue."

These words were an insult to the father-daughter duo and first orders to his new subordinates. The authority leaked from his body as he followed the guard to the villa. He walked regally and composed. The guard beside him lowered his head and continued with his escort,

The young lady felt utterly humiliated. Her father promised her this Villa when she returned from overseas. Plans were already made for her homecoming party. It will be embarrassing to cancel all invitations.

'No. She wouldn't be in that state if this idiot didn't show up. He can't have her new home. Never.' she thought inwardly. She spun on her heels and screamed.

"DADDY! Get me my villa NOW!"

Liu Yun pushed the detained driver aside and joined Manager Bao. They both ignored the twenty-something-year-old woman throwing a tantrum under so many eyes.

"Mr. Han. To clarify..."

"WELCOME HOME, YOUNG MASTER!"

The booming shout of prideful voices filled the air. Everyone turned to look at the scene.

Chen Kai stood in the middle of the road and forty uniformed guards all bowed in respect as they lined the street. Even the guard beside him and outside the barrier did the same. For a moment, he was reliving a memory of his from the past.

This sight can make one's hair stand on their arms. The duty-bound voices stirred their blood. This young man was their new master and the fated owner of the masterpiece ahead.

Liu Yun took a calming breath and turned his teary eyes to the sky and inwardly said a sentence he will only know.

Manager Bao chuckled and returned his attention to the man before him. The old man seems to gain a few more grey hairs as he looked at the scene. After years of growing up with wealth at his fingertips, he never received such a welcome.

It was then it clicked after so many hints.

Young Master.

This young man driving a low classed car was the new owner of the infamous Villa.

"Mr. Han. I am Manager Bao Chang of Masters Property Management. As you can see, this property is no longer for sale. May I ask who is your agent?"
