Chapter 797 Money Wall, Cage, Night Grass
Gu Lian nodded slightly, her cold and beautiful face expressionless. She floated forward, like ink merging into water, directly passing through the heavy door and entering the villa.

Go Dong-wook and Lee Ji-young waited quietly outside. Time seemed to slow down, each second stretching out endlessly. Go Dong-wook could hear his own steady heartbeat, while Lee Ji-young's spirit seemed somewhat restless, pacing anxiously around him.

About a minute later, or perhaps less, a soft "click" was heard from inside the door—the sound of the inner lock being opened. The heavy security door was pulled open a crack from the inside.

Gao Dongxu swiftly pulled two thin shoe covers from his pocket and neatly slipped them over his shoes, avoiding leaving any marks. He smiled slightly at the ethereal Li Zhiying beside him. Then, he gently pushed open the door and slipped inside. Li Zhiying's spirit followed him in.

The door closed softly behind him, shutting out the faint light of the outside world. The villa was pitch black, almost impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face. But this posed no obstacle for Gao Dongxu; his eyes could see clearly in the dark, as if it were daytime. He quickly scanned the area around the entrance to confirm it was safe.

Ju Lian's spirit re-formed around him and whispered, "No one's here."

Go Dong-wook nodded and walked towards the living room, with Goo Yeon and Lee Ji-young following on either side in a blurred state.

The living room was large, and all the curtains were closed, which saved Gao Dongxu a lot of trouble. The villa's decoration style was unexpectedly outdated, even tacky.

The heavy mahogany furniture, the elaborate crystal chandeliers, and the printed curtains and carpets with a distinctly 1990s style create a sense of temporal displacement, clashing with the modern exterior of the villa.

Go Dong-wook's gaze didn't linger on the furniture; his destination was clear—he headed straight for the open-plan kitchen connected to the living room. Goo Yeon and Lee Ji-young exchanged a glance and followed closely behind.

Inside the kitchen, Gao Dongxu walked up to the huge double-door refrigerator and stopped. The refrigerator looked quite old; its white exterior was slightly yellowed. He reached out his hand, clad in a thin black glove, grasped the refrigerator door handle, and pulled the door open.

The next second, something shocking happened.

As soon as the refrigerator door was opened, it was as if a switch had been flipped, and the things that were packed inside lost their balance and started falling out with a clatter!

It wasn't food, but bundles and stacks of hundred-yuan bills sealed with bank seals! The brand-new banknotes poured out like a burst dam, falling onto the gleaming kitchen floor.

The inside of the refrigerator was completely stuffed with the same bundles of money, with no gaps in either the freezer or the refrigerator compartment, making it seem as if it were not a refrigerator but a specially made safe.

"Damn, dafa—!" Lee Ji-young's spirit body fluctuated violently, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. Even though she was already a spirit, her beautiful eyes widened instantly, flashing with disbelief.

The sheer volume of cash presented before her in such a striking way was far more visually impactful than the numbers in a bank account. While Gu Lian remained calm, her spirit visibly froze for a moment, a faint hint of surprise flashing across her cold gaze.

She has existed for over a century and has seen all forms of wealth, but this is the first time she has ever seen such a massive amount of cash so crudely stuffed into everyday household appliances.

Looking at the banknotes scattered all over the floor, Gao Dongxu revealed a knowing smile, as if he had expected it all along.

Instead of touching the refrigerator, which was still full of money, he squatted down and patiently picked up the bundles of money scattered on the ground one by one, and then put them back into the refrigerator.

I took out my phone and snapped a few photos.

After doing all this, he closed the refrigerator door, turned around, and saw the questioning looks from Goo Yeon and Lee Ji Young.

Gao Dongxu didn't explain, but simply gestured for them to follow. He left the kitchen, returned to the living room, and glanced around before finally settling on the stairs leading to the second floor. The stairs were made of solid wood and covered with a thick, dark red carpet that made almost no sound when stepped on.

He led the two women upstairs silently. The second floor was equally dark and quiet, with several room doors tightly closed on both sides of the corridor. He opened each door, checked them, and confirmed that he had found the master bedroom.

The master bedroom was more spacious than the living room downstairs, but it also exuded a sense of antiquity and obsolescence. A dark-colored bedspread covered the enormous double bed, and the duvet was spread out, along with a dressing table... everything seemed conventional, even somewhat somber.

However, one wall in the room seemed rather out of place—there were no windows or furniture there, but instead a huge "world-famous painting" that almost covered the entire wall.

The painting seems somewhat out of place with the overall style of the room; it is too grand and contrasts sharply with the old furniture around it.

Gao Dongxu's gaze fell on the painting, a meaningful smile playing on his lips. He stepped forward, not to look at the painting itself, but to crouch down and carefully feel around the baseboard near the corner of the wall, hidden by the heavy shadows of the curtains.

Soon, his fingers touched a protrusion that was almost integrated with the wooden baseboard.

He pressed it without hesitation.

A very faint, almost imperceptible hum of an electric motor began to sound. Under the intense gazes of the two women, the enormous world-famous painting began to slowly and steadily roll upwards, as if the curtain of a stage had been drawn back.

The hidden scenes behind the famous paintings are gradually being revealed in the darkness.

When the screen fully rose, revealing what had been hidden behind it, even the seasoned Goo Yeon couldn't help but gasp, a look of shock appearing on her usually icy face for the first time. Lee Ji-young covered her mouth with her hand, her beautiful eyes widening, her pupils dilating in utter astonishment.

That wasn't a hidden compartment or a safe.

That's a wall!

A wall of money, made of countless bundles of hundred-yuan bills, stacked neatly and tightly like bricks!
Bundles of brand-new banknotes seemed to exude a unique aura of ink and wealth in the darkness.

They were stacked extremely high, stretching from the floor all the way to near the ceiling, their width covering the entire wall.

The sheer, raw visual impact and sense of oppression emanating from the physical form of currency is enough to make anyone who sees it stop breathing and feel their heart skip a beat.

This is no longer the concept of "a lot of money"; it's practically a fortress built of cash, a physical monument to greed and fear.

"Oh my god..." Lee Ji-young's voice trembled uncontrollably, filled with excitement, exhilaration, and disbelief, "This... how much money is this?!"

Gao Dongxu stood before the wall of money, his figure appearing somewhat small in the face of such immense wealth. He turned around, his face still bearing that calm smile of complete control, his gaze sweeping over the two shocked women, and softly gave his answer, his voice exceptionally clear in the silent room:
"Hehe, there are a total of 239.99 million in this villa."

Having said that, as if the shock before him wasn't enough, he slowly walked to the large double bed. He reached out, grabbed the heavy bedspread and blankets covering the bed, and suddenly pulled them up—

The secret hidden under the covers dealt another heavy blow to Goo Yeon and Lee Ji-young.

Under the blanket wasn't a mattress, but rather a dense, layered mass of cash! Bundles of banknotes covered the entire bed surface like roof tiles, an astonishing thickness—it was a bed made of money.

These coins echo those on the wall, transforming the entire master bedroom into a surreal, wealth-filled cage.

The cold scent of banknotes filled the air, mingling with the darkness and silence to create a suffocating atmosphere.

Goo Yeon and Lee Ji-young were completely dazzled by the unimaginable sea of ​​cash before them, and were too shocked to speak.

Having existed for over a century, Ju Lian considered herself to have witnessed all walks of life, from wealth and glory to the mundane. However, she had never before witnessed anything like the homeowner hoarding such an astronomical sum of cash in such an almost pathological way in their daily living space.

Gao Dongxu stood in the center of the room, surveying the spectacle built of greed, his eyes deep and lost in thought. The night remained dark, and the villa was deathly silent. The next moment, Gao Dongxu removed his gloves and placed his hands on the money tiles on the wall.

In the blink of an eye, the money bricks disappeared, and Gu Lian and Li Zhiying's beautiful eyes sparkled with admiration as they looked at their master with love and worship.

Wherever Gao Dongxu's hands passed, all the cash was collected into his spatial dimension, and the money wall was quickly emptied.

Then there was the cash on the bed, which was all put into the space, one by one.

After emptying all the cash from the room, Gao Dongxu put on gloves, took out a bill from the remaining bundle of cash, and placed it on the wooden shelf of the money wall, leaving something for Old Zhao, who was terrified of poverty, to remember him by. Then he pressed the switch again, and the world-famous painting was lowered.

"Master, where's the money in the refrigerator?" Gu Lian asked softly.

"That's for the homeowner, for sentencing purposes. Bad people must be punished." Gao Dongxu looked at the long, straight, cold, and charming Gu Lian, raised an eyebrow and smiled.

“That’s right, they must be punished for embezzling so much money!” Li Zhiying said, her beautiful eyes bright and brimming with a sense of justice.

"Hehe, alright, let's go—" Gao Dongxu chuckled and walked towards the door.

The three arrived silently and left just as quietly, successfully returning to their villa without leaving a trace.

The women who were in the master bedroom on the second floor, some lying down, some sitting, and some waiting for Gao Dongxu, all stood up when they heard footsteps coming upstairs, their beautiful eyes shining as they looked toward the door.

Gao Dongxu pushed open the door and entered, seeing the pairs of eager eyes around him. He couldn't help but laugh and say, "Very smoothly. From now on, no shouting or yelling—"

Under the watchful eyes of the women, Gao Dongxu walked into the house, stretched out his hands, and the next second, countless bundles of cash fell onto the carpet like rain.
