"By the way, Brother, why did you come up with such a weird name in the game?" Mo Han asked curiously when she thought of the name, Equipment Set Wholesaler 'Bunao Biaoyin'.
"Nothing much, I just came up with it randomly."
"Also, don't disclose my identity in the game for now."
"If the people around me discovered my true identity, I cannot guarantee what will happen in real life. The human heart is evil after all. It's still better to be careful."
Mo Fan immediately reminded her.
He had not told Mo Han before because he was worried if she would tell anyone about it.
However, Mo Han was too smart and guessed it herself.
There was no use hiding it anymore.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain how he earned so much money so fast.
"Brother, I know. I'm not a child anymore. I know what to say and what not to say."
Mo Han nodded and replied rather seriously.
As virtual game technology developed, there were many examples of virtual games affecting reality.
In the past, there had been news of many experts in virtual games getting killed in real life.
There were powerful and rich gamers that if they could not win in the game, they would deal with you in real life.
Those people were unreasonable and difficult to deal with.
There were also some large forces in the real world that started commercial wars in the game against large forces that were hostile to them.
Therefore, unless they were close friends or family, it was difficult to differentiate between reality and game when one's real identity in the game was known.
"Little sister, what's your name in the game?"
"Why? Are you going to give me equipment?"
Mo Han revealed a smile. Her silver teeth and thin pink lips looked extremely beautiful.
"Yeah. How about I mail you a Vengeful Spirit Set?"
"Thanks, but there's no need. I'm just joking with you. If you gave me such a good set, it will benefit the studio instead of me. We'll talk about it in the future."
Mo Han shook her head like a rattle-drum, her eyes were full of smiles as if she was very satisfied with Mo Fan's answer.
"Also, I'm called Han Sha in the game. Everyone calls me Shasha."
She stopped smiling and picked up a small backpack from the sofa.
Then she said, "Aren't you bringing me out to view houses? Let's go!"
"Okay. If you encounter any trouble in the game, you can contact me as soon as possible."
"Alright, alright, let's go!"
Mo Han pushed Mo Fan out of the door.
…
The place Mo Fan had his eyes on was on the east side of City H.
It was a district called the Royal Ocean Court Estate—it was close to the Yangtze River.
This neighborhood mostly housed affluent families.
It was considered a very high-end riverside district in City H.
Mo Fan brought Mo Han to the sales center.
It was almost 10 in the morning.
There were not many people inside.
After they entered, a beauty immediately walked over to welcome them.
Although it was now the year 2077, the sales lady's profession managed to survive through the years.
The sales lady's name was Li Meimei.
Just as Li Meimei pointed at the building on the model and was about to give a long speech, Mo Fan waved his hand and asked, "You don't have to introduce it to me. I've taken a fancy to Block 17's No. 23-02. Is that house still available?"
The environment in that building was the best in the entire district.
The 23rd floor was also neither high nor low. They could see the river vividly from this floor.
Apart from the north side of the house, No. 23-02 had a balcony on the three other sides.
All in all, it was a house that Mo Fan was very satisfied with.
This was why Mo Fan brought Mo Han here first.
"Mr. Mo, please wait a moment. I'll check."
Li Meimei was surprised.
She opened her tablet and started to check.
In less than five seconds, she replied, "Mr. Mo, the house you mentioned is still available. Do you need me to take you to see the house?"
"Sure, let's go!" Mo Fan nodded.
"Alright, please follow me."
The two of them followed behind Li Meimei.
"Brother, did you look at this property online before coming here?"
"That's right. It is my first choice. If it doesn't satisfy us, we'll go to the next one."
"Alright! I'll listen to you, then. I hope your taste is as good as your skills in the game."
Although they talked in whispers, Li Meimei who led them from the front still heard them.
"Mr. Mo, Royal Ocean Court is one of the top luxury mansion estates in the country. Not only is the environment beautiful, but the size of the house is also sufficiently big for a family. Since you chose this place, it is enough to show that you have a rather good taste."
Li Meimei looked deeply at the two and flattered them.
"Hmm, let's… go take a look first!" Mo Fan smiled awkwardly.
Li Meimei's gaze made him very uncomfortable.
That's my sister!
Why are you showing such an expression?
Mo Fan complained in his heart.
When Mo Han saw this, she covered her mouth and giggled.
Mo Fan glared at her fiercely.
The three of them soon arrived at the 23rd floor of Block 17.
Just as Li Meimei opened the door, her phone rang.
She immediately apologized to both Mo Han and Mo Fan.
"I'm sorry, come in and take a look first. I have to take this call."
Li Meimei walked up to the door and answered the call.
"Xiaomei, did you bring your clients to Block 17, No. 23-02?"
A male voice echoed from the other side of the phone.
"Yes, Manager Wang. Is there a problem?"
"Xiaomei, why didn't you ask me before you went there? Chen Ziqian has taken a fancy to that place. We can't sell it to others!"
Li Meimei panicked and immediately replied upon hearing Manager Wang's words. "Manager Wang, the system clearly shows that it's still available, there is also no sales agreement stating that the house is sold!"
…
Although Mo Fan was quite distant from Li Meimei, he could clearly hear what they were talking about. Putting aside why his hearing had become so good, just their conversation made Mo Fan's expression darken.
Wow.
He could not say anything except wow!
To think that he would encounter such a clichéd plot when buying a house.
What is this?
A last-minute attempt to raise the sale price?
Or did some important figure coincidentally want to buy it at the last minute?
Mo Fan's good mood from viewing the house was instantly ruined.
Li Meimei chatted with Manager Wang for a long time.
Mo Fan finally understood the situation.
As expected, Chen Ziqian had just taken a fancy to this house at the sales center.
This Chen Ziqian was not a simple person. He was the eldest son of the Chen Financial Group.
Ordinary people would not dare to provoke him.
Hence, Manager Wang immediately called.
After Li Meimei hung up the phone, her expression looked a little ugly.
But she still forced a smile and walked over to the two.
"Mr. Mo, I'm really sorry, this house…"
"I have to agree, this house is not bad!"
Mo Fan immediately interrupted Li Meimei. A determined and pleased look was on his face.
"Brother, I think it's pretty good too. There are three bedrooms, two living rooms, and the design is exquisite. There are also independent bathrooms, AI-controlled furniture, and balconies with rather large spaces. It's just like what I've dreamed of!."
After Mo Han came in, she walked around.
Upon hearing Mo Fan's words, she immediately walked over and expressed her thoughts.
"Mr. Mo, Miss Mo, this house…"
Without waiting for Li Meimei to say anything, Mo Fan immediately said, "Alright then. Li Meimei, we've decided on this house. Let's go and sign the contract now!"
Hearing Mo Fan's words, Li Meimei did not know whether to laugh or cry.
She replied helplessly. "Mr. Mo, Miss Mo, I'm really sorry. It was my mistake just now. Someone has already reserved this house. Do you want to take a look at the other houses?"
"Are you toying with me? Who booked this?" Mo Fan raised his voice.
"Hey, what do you mean? Didn't you say that this house is still available?" Mo Han also looked displeased. She didn't hear Li Meimei's conversation with her manager over the phone.
"I'm really sorry. This house has reserved booked by a big shot. I'm just an ordinary employee. I really have no choice."
Li Meimei kept apologizing.
Her eyes looked so red and she seemed as if she was about to cry.
"Li Meimei, I don't care who reserved this house. It was definitely available when you brought me here, so I'm buying this house for sure!"
"If you can't make a decision, call your Manager Wang over!"
Mo Fan's tone was not polite at all. He did not act soft because of Li Meimei's attitude.
What the heck?
It was not easy to earn money in the game.
Finally, he managed to earn enough money and he became confident to bring his sister out to view houses.
It was not easy to find a house.
But now that he found a house that he was satisfied with, someone was trying to snatch it from him?
No matter what, he could not take this lying down.
Mo Fan stared at Li Meimei with a dark look.
After hearing Mo Fan's words, Li Meimei knew that things would not end so well.
She could only give Manager Wang a call.
Not long after, three people came, two men and a woman.
The woman was very young and beautiful.
She followed behind a handsome man. From her attire, she seemed to be a secretary.
The handsome man looked a little familiar to Mo Fan. It was as if he had seen him on the news before. But although he was more handsome, he could not compare to Mo Fan.
This handsome man was probably Chen Ziqian.
The other man was big-bellied and had a plump face resembling a pig's head.
He was probably that Manager Wang.
"Xiaomei, what's wrong with you? You can't even serve a client well?" The pig-headed man scolded Li Meimei as soon as he arrived.
Then, he smiled and said to Mo Fan, "Mr. Mo, I'm really sorry. This house has already been reserved by Young Master Chen. Do you want to take a look at the other houses?"
"Before I came here, this house was still available. When I was looking at the house, it was suddenly reserved by someone? How can there be such a coincidence in this world? I don't care who has their eyes on it, I'm definitely buying this house!"
Mo Fan's tone was firm, not showing the pig-headed man any respect.
After hearing Mo Fan's words, the pig-headed man's expression changed.
He then smiled obsequiously at the handsome boy beside him.
"Young Master Chen…"
Without waiting for the pig-headed man to speak, Chen Ziqian pushed him away and walked towards Mo Fan.
"Hello, Mr. Mo. Please name a price. I want this house!"
Chen Ziqian's tone was very calm.
He had a smile on his face as if he was talking about something ordinary.
Mo Fan thought that this rich kid would reveal his identity and scold him without caring about anything.
But who knew that his attitude was so good?
What about happening to this face-slapping cliché plot?
Why was it stopping here?
Mo Fan shook his head and replied firmly. "I'm sorry, my sister and I really like this house. Why don't you take a look elsewhere?"
"Then—alright! Secretary Zhang, let's go!"
Chen Ziqian shook his head and left with his secretary.
Mo Fan really did not expect this rich second-generation young master to be so refined and nothing like what he had imagined earlier.
"Xiaomei, serve Mr. Mo well," Manager Wang looked at Mo Fan apologetically and instructed Li Meimei before chasing after Chen Ziqian. "Young Master Chen! Wait for me."
…
What happened next was very simple.
The contracts and documents of this era were all electronic and vetted by AI.
Li Meimei quickly signed the contract with Mo Fan and Mo Yan.
Because he was paying upfront, the paperwork was done rather quickly.
Half an hour later, everything was done.
The house's various documents and electronic keys were all handed over to him.
With Li Meimei's help, the electronic key was activated and they received full access to the house.
Then, the AI management system in the room was activated.
"Mr. Mo, Miss Mo, the instruction manual has been sent over to your email."
"If you have any other problems, you can contact the AI butler directly. If the AI butler can't solve your problem, you can contact me directly."
A wide smile spread across Li Meimei's face.
The feeling of grievance she had just suffered earlier seemed to have been lifted.
"Alright, thank you!" Mo Fan nodded.
This little girl's service was really not bad.
"My pleasure, I'll take my leave first! Goodbye!" Li Meimei smiled and waved before leaving.
Mo Fan looked at his and Mo Han's names on the deed. A strange look appeared on his face.
His parents had disappeared when he was in middle school.
He did not know where they went.
After several years, they had no choice but to register their deaths.
From then on, he lived with his sister Mo Han.
However, that old house was simply too small.
Mo Fan had no choice but to move out when he grew capable enough.
But now, he finally earned enough money to buy their own house.
"It seems like I finally have the standardized backstories of protagonists like having dead parents, a sister, and a house?"
