Chapter 10 - future mistress

After breakfast, Xu Wenqi didn't stay in the villa. Picking the clothes she wore yesterday, she left the villa to grab the items in the original owner's house. Xu Wenqi wanted to take a taxi there but after hearing Butler Wang's words, she changed her mind.

"This area is a gated community, meaning no taxis or any other service car can pass through. You should just take one of the young master's cars. The young master has another substitute driver that can drive you there. Additionally, think about all the items you need to bring back ah. Young people always have so many things to carry. Just take the family car and let the driver help you move it."

Listening to Butler Wang's persuasion, Xu Wenqi thanked him profusely for the help.

"Aye, it's so much trouble. I don't want to inconvenience all of you, but thank you anyway."

Butler Wang smiled widely and said, "No trouble at all. After all, you'll be the future mistress of the household. Heehee…"

Xu Wenqi couldn't hear the last part of the sentence clearly as Butler Wang mumbled towards the end of his speech.

She asked curiously, "Sorry, I didn't hear properly. What did you say?"

Butler Wang coughed fakely into his handkerchief to hide his laughter before straightening up to respond, "Ahh, what did I say? Aiyo poor me, I'm old and can't remember things well. Anyway, you should get going now."

"Oh right, thank you!"

Entering the same Maybach car from yesterday, Xu Wenqi got to appreciate the luxuriousness of the interior she was unable to focus on last night. The rich leather smell and comfortable sleekness of the seat made one really admire the tastes of the wealthy.

'Sure enough, capitalism is still rolling in piles of money! Ahh, it's really nice to hug Shen Yue's thigh,' she thought happily.

Driver Zhong noticed her content expression in the rear mirror and couldn't help but feel affected by the happy atmosphere. Driving a sunny and bright person was infinitely times better than driving the stone-cold Shen Yue who constantly looked like he was going to drink someone's blood. Driver Zhong loosened his tight heart and made small talk with Xu Wenqi.

"Is there something that makes Ms. Xu so happy?" he asked with a polite smile.

Xu Wenqi was more than happy to chat with anyone as long as that person wasn't Shen Yue.

"Yes, this car is so nice! It not only looks good, but it also feels comfortable to sit in as well. Of course, your driving is so smooth too," praised Xu Wenqi.

Driver Zhong was surprised; he had heard of Xu Wenqi's identity as a third-generation heiress and thought she would put on airs like many other rich children. Unexpectedly, she was so humble and even complimented his driving skills. His favorability of her had risen by a lot and his smile became much more sincere.

"Ms. Xu is so modest, my driving skills are just alright, haha."

Xu Wenqi grinned and said, "No, no. I'm telling the truth. I've never ridden such a smooth car before."

Xu Wenqi wasn't lying; the drive was the smoothest she had ever been on. Driver Zhong's operation of the car was so level that she didn't feel as if she was in a car.

She couldn't help but think, 'All the people Shen Yue hired are so competent in their job. Whether it is Secretary Chen, Butler Wang, or Driver Zhong, all of them were so efficient and professional.'

Hearing these words, Driver Zhong thought she was just being kind again and thanked her for the compliment. It wasn't long until the car stopped at the address given to him earlier. Xu Wenqi unbuckled her seatbelt and thanked Driver Zhong for the ride before getting off.

"Thank you for driving me all the way," she said courteously. "Sorry I have to trouble you to help me gather my things."

Driver Zhong couldn't help but look at her more, thinking again that she was so well-mannered, unlike other passengers he had driven.

"Oh, it's no big deal," he replied as he waved his arms.

Xu Wenqi then exited the car and took in the full view of the original owner's home, or more precisely villa.

Unlike the simple modern feel of Shen Yue's villa, the original owner's villa was slightly more flamboyant with a statue fountain of a beautiful Greek goddess several meters away from the double doors. The original owner's villa looked more of a resort than an actual home as it had a wide pool of aquamarine water stretching to the side and thick Roman pillars supporting the entire house. The villa also had over 44 windows with a long white balcony accompanying each one. Comparing Shen Yue's villa with the original owner's, she would definitely prefer to live in Shen Yue's as his style was more to her taste. His chic simple decor was much more pleasing to the eye than the original owner's flaunt of wealth. Xu Wenqi shook her head slightly and entered the glass doors of the villa.
