Chapter 51: Villa Number One of Heaven!

Chapter 51: Villa Number One of Heaven!

After quite a while, Tang Xuan'er finally stepped out of the washroom, looking rather shy.

There were still traces of water on her hair, clearly indicating that she had just taken a shower inside.

Tang Xuan'er was already breathtakingly beautiful to begin with, but after being refined by this upgraded version of the Pei Yuan Pill, her beauty could only be described as soul-stirring.

Xue Xiang and Xue Nina giggled happily, and Tang Xuan'er asked with some embarrassment, "What are you two little girls laughing at?"

"Auntie Xuan'er, you smell just as nice as Daddy now!" Xue Nina said with a cheeky smile.

What she actually meant was that Tang Xuan'er now carried a faint, baby-like fragrance—a sign that her body had achieved a high degree of purity and cleanliness.

Xue An also possessed this subtle, faint fragrance, which was the exact reason why the two little girls loved snuggling up close to their father.

Hearing this, however, Tang Xuan'er blushed deeply and lowered her head, not daring to speak.

Seeing this, Xue An merely smiled gently and said, "Sit down and eat. It won't taste as good if it gets cold!"

"Mm!" Tang Xuan'er replied in a soft murmur and then took her seat.

Her obedient and submissive demeanor... made her look just like a newlywed young bride!

The atmosphere grew somewhat subtle.

Tang Xuan'er's lowered face became even more flushed.

Right at that moment, a crisp ring of the doorbell broke the silence.

Feeling immensely relieved, Tang Xuan'er hastily stood up to open the door.

Qin Yu walked in, carrying large and small bags filled with various toys and snacks. The moment she saw Xue Xiang and Xue Nina, she smiled and said,

"My two little princesses, look what I've brought you!"

Children would always be children; upon seeing so many novel toys, they jumped up in joy.

"Thank you, Auntie Qin Yu!"

After taking the toys, the two little girls ran off to the side to play.

At this point, Qin Yu noticed the dishes laid out on the living room table and couldn't help smiling. "What a coincidence! What is this you've made? Why does it smell so amazing?"

Xue An smiled faintly. "I made some crabs. Have a taste."

Qin Yu originally intended to decline, but ever since she stepped through the door, she had been greeted by an unusual, rich fragrance.

As someone accustomed to grand occasions, Qin Yu had never encountered such a peculiar aroma, one that instantly made her mouth water.

"Then I'll have a bite!" Qin Yu picked up a crab leg, took a bite, and her eyes lit out with brilliance.

"How is it?" Xue An asked calmly.

Qin Yu didn't even have time to reply. With a nearly ravenous appetite, she devoured the entire crab leg in one go, let out a long breath, and said with a trace of embarrassment, "It's... simply too delicious!"

Tang Xuan'er was amused by Qin Yu's greedy look. She placed the remaining crabs into a bowl and said softly, "Miss Qin, there's more here. You can have them all!"

Qin Yu's face flushed red, feeling as though she had come over just to scavenge a free meal, but the taste of that crab was utterly irresistible.

The Longtai Group owned several major restaurants, and their chefs were top-tier talents renowned nationwide and even globally. Yet, compared to this plate of crabs, what those master chefs made was absolute trash.

At that moment, Xue An became even more mysterious in Qin Yu's eyes.

Not only was this man's martial arts unfathomable, but he also possessed such astonishing culinary skills.

Qin Yu couldn't help wondering if there was anything in this world that Xue An couldn't do.

However, Qin Yu hadn't forgotten the purpose of her visit. As she continued eating, she said, "Mr. Xue, my grandfather felt that your current residence is a bit too cramped, so he specifically prepared a villa for you. Please consider it a token of our gratitude for all the help you've given the Qin family!"

"A villa?"

"Yes, right by Yunmeng Lake! If you have time later, I'll take you over to take a look!"

"Yunmeng Lake... You mean the Yunmeng Retreat?" Tang Xuan'er asked in surprise.

"Yes! That's the one! Have you heard of the Yunmeng Retreat as well?" Qin Yu smiled.

Tang Xuan'er gave a bitter smile. "In Beijiang nowadays, who hasn't heard of the Yunmeng Retreat?"

"What's wrong?" Xue An asked.

"Nothing, it's just that the Yunmeng Retreat is extremely popular in Beijiang right now, hailed as Beijiang's most high-end residential area!" Tang Xuan'er had occasionally heard her colleagues at the hospital mention it a few times.

However, the Yunmeng Retreat was not something one could simply purchase with money alone.

The people who lived there were invariably exceptionally wealthy or of noble status.

Never had she imagined that the Yunmeng Retreat belonged to Qin Yu's family, and that the Qin family would directly gift an entire villa just to curry favor with Xue An.

Such a lavish gesture left even Tang Xuan'er deeply shocked.

Xue An remained indifferent, but Qin Yu's words reminded him of something.

Now that he had returned, it was inconvenient for Tang Xuan'er to continue living here. Yet, she had nowhere else to live and could only stay in the hospital dormitory, which inevitably came with various inconveniences.

Furthermore, his two daughters were growing older by the day, and living in the current place was becoming somewhat awkward.

Therefore, Xue An nodded. "Alright! Let's go take a look!"

If it weren't for so many people watching, Qin Yu would have truly loved to lick the bottom of the plate clean.

Because it was simply too fragrant and delicious!

Still, as the daughter of a wealthy family, her last shred of dignity stopped her from doing so.

After heading downstairs, Qin Yu drove Xue An, Tang Xuan'er, and the two little girls toward the Yunmeng Retreat in the suburbs.

It wasn't very far from downtown Beijiang; the drive took about ten minutes, and the entrance was guarded by strict security.

When Qin Yu's car arrived, the guards lined up and saluted uniformly.

The car slowly drove into the villa district. Although it was winter, there were still numerous meticulously cultivated flowers in full bloom throughout the grounds.

With its elegant environment and location built alongside the lake, the surrounding scenery alone was enough to earn the title of Beijiang's most exclusive residential area.

However, Villa Number One of Heaven had been specially developed by Qin Yuan and naturally differed from these ordinary villas.

Right by the edge of Yunmeng Lake stood a small hill.

The hill wasn't particularly tall, but compared to the flat terrain surrounding it, it still appeared quite majestic and towering.

A winding mountain road had been constructed along the hill, and Villa Number One of Heaven was perched right at the summit.

The car drove straight to the top. After stepping out, Tang Xuan'er was utterly dumbfounded.

Standing here, one had a direct, unobstructed view of Yunmeng Lake not far away.

The misty, boundless ripples felt as though they were right before one's eyes.

The villa itself was the work of a master architect, blending seamlessly and perfectly with the surrounding natural environment.

"Daddy, this house is so big and so pretty!" Xue Xiang and Xue Nina exclaimed in unison.

Qin Yu looked at Xue An with a triumphant expression, hoping to catch a glimpse of shock on this Mr. Xue's face.

Unfortunately, she was disappointed.

Xue An's expression remained as calm as ever, as though this masterfully crafted villa, born of nature itself, was nothing more than a thatched hut.

In truth, that was precisely how Xue An viewed it.

From his perspective, the layout here was barely passable, and the surrounding feng shui was decent, with the spiritual energy from the distant Yunmeng Lake nourishing the flora and fauna.

Yet... it was far too crude!

As an Immortal Venerable who had witnessed grand spectacles such as arranging formations with stars and treating star systems as his home, the layout here couldn't even be considered barely passing.

At best, it was merely habitable!
