Chapter 98: Short-Sighted Individuals
Xiao Hailong naturally looked down on Ye Chen with a thousand disdainful glances.
He also harbored deep resentment towards Xiao Churan, the current company director.
Seeing that the couple had come to Tangchen Yipin to look at houses, he wanted to seize the opportunity to mock them thoroughly.
Upon hearing Xiao Hailong dare to insult him and his wife, Ye Chen immediately sneered, “What? If someone like you can come to Tangchen Yipin to look at houses, why can’t we?”
Xiao Hailong scoffed, “I can come because my family can afford it. You, a pathetic loser, can you afford a house here?”
Ye Chen laughed, “How do you know I can’t afford it?”
Xiao Hailong snorted, “Can you really afford it? Do you know how much these houses cost? The smallest one is 120 square meters, over 80,000 per square meter, which totals around 10 million. Do you have 10 million?”
Ye Chen chuckled, “I wouldn’t stoop to buying the smallest house; if I’m buying, it would be the biggest.”
“Pfft!” Xiao Hailong coldly replied, “The biggest is 240 square meters, and you think you can manage that??”
Xiao Weiwei also mocked, “Yeah, Ye Chen, can you really afford a 240-square-meter house? A house that big, even our family can’t just buy it whenever we want. What do you plan to buy it with?”
Ye Chen looked at her and asked with a smile, “Who told you I wanted to buy a 240-square-meter house?”
Xiao Weiwei disdainfully huffed, “What? Didn’t you say you wanted to buy the biggest? Now you’re pretending you didn’t?”
Ye Chen laughed heartily, “Weiwei, you’re really lacking ambition. Didn’t you see that there’s a large villa area in this sand table? The villas in there are the biggest houses.”
“Pfft!” Xiao Weiwei scoffed, “Villas? The smallest ones in there start at several million, and the expensive ones even go over a hundred million. With your pathetic status, you could never afford it in eight lifetimes!”
Ye Chen smiled, “What a coincidence, I happen to have one, and it’s the biggest!”
“Hahahaha!” The Xiao family laughed uproariously, pointing at Ye Chen with disdain, “You think you can buy the biggest villa? My God, are you trying to make us laugh to death?”
Many other customers looking at houses nearby also heard Ye Chen’s words and began to mock him, “He looks like a pathetic loser, and he wants to buy a villa?”
“If he can afford a villa here, then I can afford the entire Tangchen Yipin!”
“He’s really just bragging without any basis!”
Xiao Churan’s face also showed signs of embarrassment as she quietly scolded Ye Chen, “Ye Chen! What nonsense are you talking? Aren’t you afraid of embarrassing yourself?”
Ye Chen smiled, “What’s embarrassing about telling the truth?”
Xiao Hailong laughed uncontrollably, saying, “Did you hear that? Even your own wife doesn’t believe you. The eyes of the public are sharp; a person like you doesn’t even deserve to enter this sales hall!”
After saying that, he viciously added, “Just wait, I’ll call the sales assistant to kick you out!”
Immediately, Xiao Hailong called over a sales assistant and pointed at Ye Chen, saying, “Miss, what’s going on here? How did you let such a trashy loser in? This kind of person is shamelessly claiming he wants to buy your most expensive villa. With someone like him around, we real buyers don’t even want to make a move!”
The sales assistant glanced at Ye Chen and could tell at a glance that his attire was very ordinary, not at all like someone who should be wealthy.
Let alone buying a villa, even customers looking to buy the smallest three-bedroom apartment were dressed much more appropriately than he was.
The crowd around them began to stir, saying, “Hurry up and kick this guy out; he’s ruining our mood.”
The sales assistant walked up to Ye Chen and said, “Sir, if you don’t intend to buy a house, please leave and don’t disturb our other clients.”
Xiao Churan sighed, tugging at Ye Chen’s sleeve, “Let’s go, let’s look somewhere else.”
Others began to jeer, “Get lost, you poor loser, don’t embarrass yourself here.”
Ye Chen stood still, smiling as he said, “Do you know why you can’t afford a villa? Because each of you is short-sighted. With your kind of vision, you’ll never be able to afford a villa in this lifetime.”
Xiao Hailong spat, “Pfft! Ye Chen, do you even have the face to say that? Every single one of them here is richer than you!”
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, “Xiao Hailong, you keep saying I can’t afford a villa. What if I really can?”
Xiao Hailong laughed heartily, pointing at the tallest building on the sand table, arrogantly saying, “If you can afford a villa here, I’ll jump off the top of this building!”
Many people around echoed, “Pathetic loser, if you can afford it, I’ll jump too!”
“Exactly! Count me in if we’re jumping! I can’t stand this kind of pretentious loser!”
Xiao Churan had never felt so embarrassed before and felt a bit resentful towards Ye Chen, scolding, “Ye Chen! Why do you have to argue with them here? Do you have to make it impossible for yourself to back down?”
Ye Chen smiled slightly, “Wife, how do you know I won’t be able to back down?”
Saying this, Ye Chen pulled out the villa key and access card from his pocket, casually saying, “Look, this is the key and information card for villa A05.”
Xiao Weiwei laughed, “Ye Chen, do you think just waving a key around will make us believe you? You think we’re that stupid?”
Ye Chen tossed the key and information card to the sales assistant, saying, “Here, check if this is real.”
The sales assistant immediately recognized the key and information card Ye Chen presented; they were clearly for the exclusive villa area of Tangchen Yipin. She was instantly shocked.
Could it be that this person really is a villa owner? She had just thought of kicking him out, and if he really was the owner, if he got angry, her job would definitely be at stake…
Thinking this, she hurriedly took Ye Chen’s information card, scanned it with the internal reader, and the machine immediately emitted a computer voice: “Dear Mr. Ye Chen, owner of villa A05, welcome home!”
The sales assistant gasped, “You are Mr. Ye Chen?”
“Yes.” Ye Chen nodded, it seemed that the villa the Wang family gifted him had already been transferred to his name.
The sales assistant immediately returned the card to Ye Chen with great respect, nervously saying, “Mr. Ye, I’m truly sorry. I didn’t know you were the esteemed owner of villa A05. Please forgive me for what happened earlier.”
Everyone present was left dumbfounded at this scene!
Ye Chen is really the owner here? What a joke! How could someone like him afford a villa in Tangchen Yipin?!
Xiao Hailong’s expression was extremely ugly; what the hell was going on? Ye Chen buying a villa in Tangchen Yipin? He would rather believe in ghosts than believe Ye Chen had that kind of capability!
But what was up with the sales assistant? She wouldn’t lie, would she?
Moreover, she had just scanned Ye Chen’s card, and even the machine confirmed that Ye Chen was the owner here…
What on earth was going on?!
