Nami’s face was pale. She turned around and saw Xu Wenping’s father smiling warmly. He then turned around and glared at Xu Wenping. “You brat, you even brought it up for a little girl?”

“It’s okay, it’s okay… Xiao Nami, right? How to go in and talk… Since we are living together, we are a family. Our family’s Wenping is not that stingy.”

Nami nodded in fear.

To be honest, this display of power still surprised her. Only then did she realize that as a butler again, she was a butler of the Great Dragon Kingdom. It was different from the West. The order of importance here was an extremely profound knowledge.

Just as his father was gloating, his mother kicked him in the butt. She gritted her teeth and said, “Go on your way, you old thing. You like chatting with little girls so much, right?”

“No, no, no… No! Aiya… Please give me some face…”

“Isn’t this your son’s house? You still want to save face?”

The few of them entered the house, laughing and joking. Nami realized that the things she had prepared didn’t seem to be of much use, and an honest smile immediately appeared on her face.

Her change was very timely. She immediately said, “Uncle, Aunty, our villa, along with the beach and sea area below, is nearly 5,000 square meters. There are three small courtyards in the villa. Usually, the two of you can live in one, and the Master and Mistress can live in another. When you have grandchildren, the area will be very large.”

“The outer area is where we, the servants, live. Look… There was a sea-view pavilion over there. You could read books, drink tea, or sit by the side to fish. It’s very convenient.”

After all, she was a student of etiquette. Her expression changed faster than flipping a book!

“Aiya… This place is really big. Wife… You’re still worried that it won’t be enough. Forget about the two of us, it’s enough for us to move our old neighborhood over.”

“How much is this…”

When his father asked, Nami and Xu Wenping’s eyes met for a moment. The former understood and smiled. “Actually, the price is average, but the quota is very important. President Xu must have a good relationship to be able to buy Villa No. 1.”

“Look, this is an entertainment area. We usually play chess and mahjong with a few old friends. In this intelligent control area, as long as you shout, the robot will be able to find the chess manual for you!”

Nami also saw the item in Father Xu’s hand. Father Xu’s eyes immediately lit up when he saw that it was something he liked. He quickly walked over. The small door of the entertainment room was connected to the wind and rain corridor in the courtyard. His father went in to open the box and looked at the chess pieces placed beside him. He immediately said excitedly, “Aiya, my wife! Ivory, good stuff!”

“Isn’t this very comfortable?”

“General!”

“Aiya, cool, cool, cool.”

There were courtyards and corridors connecting the three courtyards. The distance between the three courtyards was quite close, because it was a down-to-earth ancient building with buildings in front, but the small courtyards were full of bungalows. Everyone walked into the main courtyard in the middle. Xu Wenping kept observing his mother, and saw that she seemed a little satisfied, so he was relieved.

After telling Nami not to introduce them, they walked to the living room of the first courtyard. After sitting down, Nami went down to make tea. Xu Wenping looked at his mother and then at his father, who was having a great time in the entertainment room.

“Mom… Are you satisfied?”

“Not satisfied.”

Xu Wenping had asked with confidence, but his mother’s answer made him pause for a moment. She looked at Xu Wenping with a sharp gaze and said, “You can fool that old man, but you can’t fool me. Your father said that his leader lives in this neighborhood. I’ve just observed that your location should be one of the best.”

“Uh… It’s… alright.”

His mother worriedly went to Xu Wenping’s side and said, “Wenping, I know that you’ve always been ambitious. If you don’t have any achievements, you won’t show it to your parents like this. Mom has decided to stay at your place… However, if you’re out there, don’t bear the burden alone.”

Seeing the worry in his mother’s eyes, Xu Wenping was deeply moved, but then he said, “Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll be fine.”

“Yes.”

Su Yurou didn’t say much, but he had already examined the entire residence. Su Yurou maintained her usual composure when it came to the exquisiteness of the buildings. However, when she looked at Nami, she was always on guard.

At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded outside.

“Is anyone in the house? Who is the master?”

Walking inside the house, he saw a kind-looking, slightly thin, hunch-waisted old man. He was dressed very loosely and had his hands behind his back. He was sizing him up with a smile and was even shouting softly. Behind him was a strong bodyguard. At a glance, he was the type with extraordinary skills.

Just as Xu Wenping raised his eyebrows, Nami leaned over and whispered, “That’s Old Master Li, who lives opposite us. He used to be a big leader in the province. Now that he’s retired, his children are usually busy, so he likes to take a few steps and visit.”

“Perhaps the door of the villa was open today, so the Old Master came to visit.”

Xu Wenping was enlightened.

Unlike the younger generation, the older generation still paid great attention to their neighbors. Xu Wenping quickly went to welcome them. After all, they were guests.

However, at this moment, his father just happened to walk out of the entertainment room. He was still reluctant to part with the old man. Naturally, he heard the old man’s shout and went up to take a closer look with his glasses on.

Suddenly, he said in surprise, “Old, old, old… old leader!”

“Hmm? You brat, you are…”

This thin old man was at least 70 years old. In his eyes, Xu Wenping’s father was just a kid.

Xu Wenping’s father slapped his thigh and pointed at the bodyguard behind him. “Old leader… Why do you forget so many things? Back then, I was just like this kid. I followed behind you obediently and poured you tea.”

The old leader rubbed his eyes and took a closer look. He looked at Xu Wenping’s father’s leg and suddenly said excitedly, “You’re Xiao Nian! Xu Shinian, right? I remember now, you brat… You’re so impulsive. Back then, you broke your leg to protect me! For this, 1 blamed myself for a long time!”

Ha! He could even meet this?

“Hahaha… Old leader! What a coincidence… Aiyo, in the blink of an eye, I’ve become an old man.”

At this moment, Xu Wenping also walked up. His father quickly pulled Xu Wenping and introduced him, “This is my son. The villa is his. The child is filial and brought us here to retire. If I didn’t have a good son, I wouldn’t have lived in the same neighborhood as you in this lifetime!”

“Hahaha!” The old man smiled brightly and said, “The younger generation will always surpass the older generation. We’re all old now. Alright, alright, alright, isn’t there a chessboard? Let’s spar for two rounds!”

“That’s what I want!”
