On their way to Binhu, Xiao Wei called and gave him the details of the apartment buildings he owned. Everything was in order and within the laws of the province. Xiao Wei gave his honest opinions and Chen Kai approved of them without a second thought. Putting the new apartments under the care of his company, he can earn the extra fees since it will be optional for tenants who are living in a family unit. 

Knowing that the apartments were fine, Chen Kai did his own selling of his property. He wasn't saying words to make a profit from his friends, it would give him peace of mind that they were safe. Also, thanks to Su Lian's explanation of their upcoming jobs it was easier to commute. There was an inkling of an idea to purchase low-key cars for them but that will simply scare them.

An impulsive thought - yes- but he wanted to make their life easier and safer. They were all beauties, who's to say the scum of society won't be tempted to taint them.

"Have you been to Binhu District, Brother Chen?" Ye Jun asked. She caught on to his sales pitch and enthusiasm for them living in that area.

How can he deceive his friends?

"I haven't been to that area but two apartment buildings have been transferred to me. The buildings are the same as your agent suggested to you."

The car went silent. Chen Kai didn't add anything, he gave them time to digest it all. It was obvious they were still grasping the fact that the guy they've pampered for four years is now wealthy and wishes to repay them. If he was in their shoes and without the experience of being on top of the food chain, he too would be in a bewildered state.

When he drove onto the street that would enter the district, Lin Fa broke the silence.

"Are there discounts if we choose here?"

Chen Kai gave her the look of 'What do you think?' in the rearview mirror.

"There's never a relationship between people when money is involved," Su Lian commented with a smile.

"Exactly. The most I will give you based on our friendship is permission to redecorate the apartment if it's not to your liking. I will pay for everything. How about that?"

"Deal!" The answer came not a second too late and in a melodious unison. How can he not smile at their adorable reply?!

"Good."

Binhu Residential District is a mixture of the old and the new. Each street depicts this contrast and brings out a surreal feeling. The apartments were located in the mid to high-range area. Most tenants who live there are either managers of successful companies, officials, successful entrepreneurs, or even individuals who have a steady income for this type of living. 

Standing ten floors up, with traditional exterior and modern interior design, strict security, and all updated utilities and appliances, this building was a treasure for new college graduates. For the girls to afford deposits for two apartments, their parents probably helped which is nothing to be ashamed of. 
The buildings stood side by side of each other, separated by a pathway of local flora. The entire compound was picturesque. It was neatly isolated from other buildings to keep the well-maintained garden secure. There was a wide private parking lot attached to the property via a security gate and the entrance was manned by hired security. 

Not taking advantage of his status as owner, Chen Kai parked opposite the building, garnering the attention of passersby. 

Who would be so brave to park such an expensive car on the side of the road?

Their thoughts were paused a moment later when four young ladies left the confines of the car. It was accurate to say that each beauty attracted unique tastes. From scholarly beauty to playful fairy. 
The girls stood on the sidewalk and patiently waited on Chen Kai. The few men who were bold to say a few words to them were politely rejected. Su Lian didn't give them face and outrightly denied their actions. 
When Chen Kai came onto the sidewalk amidst a last-minute call, he saw the flies around her. His possessiveness was ignited. Whether it was the old soul's affection for the eccentric beauty or the present soul's attraction, Su Lian was naturally his.
