Super Rich: Enjoying the Happiness of the Wealthy After Divorce
Chapter 90 The Key to Breaking Through Psychological Defenses
The Rolls-Royce Cullinan with license plate number Jiang A88888 was parked quietly at the entrance of the School of Arts of Jiangcheng University, like a black behemoth.
The surrounding noise suddenly subsided considerably.
All sorts of gazes—envious, curious, jealous—were fixed on this car.
The car door opened, and a driver dressed in a black suit and white gloves got out and respectfully opened the back door for Tang Duo.
"Miss Tang Duo, please get in the car."
Zhang Qian and her gang watched in disbelief as Tang Duo got into the back seat of the car, their mouths agape. The car door closed, shutting out the complex gazes from outside into another world.
The car was huge, ridiculously huge.
Beneath her feet was a soft, sinking wool carpet, and the air was filled with the scent of fine leather and an indescribably pleasant aroma. Inside the car refrigerator were imported mineral waters she had never seen before.
Tang Duo sat nervously in the leather seat, unsure of what to do with her hands and feet.
The car was driven very steadily, heading towards a place she had only ever dreamed of before—the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds.
As the car drove past layer after layer of checkpoints and entered the legendary upscale residential area, Tang Duo felt even her breathing become lighter. Every villa here was like a work of art, hidden among green trees and flowers, quiet and mysterious.
Finally, the car stopped in front of a modern building that was entirely made of glass.
"Miss Tang Duo, we've arrived."
Tang Duo got out of the car and stared blankly at the villa that occupied the best location in the entire river bay, her mind blank. Compared to this, her family's "Tang Mansion" was simply a small toy.
The villa's gate opened by itself, and Tang Xinyi was waiting at the door.
"Duoduo, you're back! Come in quickly!"
Tang Duo followed Tang Xinyi inside like a wooden doll.
As soon as she entered, she was stunned by the enormous floor-to-ceiling window and the 270-degree panoramic view of the river outside. It was as if the entire prosperity of Jiangcheng was beneath her feet.
"Wow..." she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and change your shoes." Tang Xinyi smiled and handed her a pair of slippers.
Zhou Cheng also came down from upstairs.
"You're back? Have you taken care of everything at school?"
"It's...it's all done, brother-in-law." Tang Duo was still a little scared when she saw Zhou Cheng.
"Okay, that's good." Zhou Cheng walked up to her and naturally took the slightly worn backpack from her hand. "Let me show you your room."
Tang Duo followed Zhou Cheng and got into the indoor elevator that she had only ever seen in five-star hotels.
The elevator reached the second floor, and as soon as the doors opened, there was a huge bedroom right in front of her. The room was her favorite cream color, and outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows was the flowing river.
Zhou Cheng pushed open a door next to her, and inside was a walk-in closet that was even bigger than the living room of her old house.
The room was already filled with all kinds of new seasonal clothes and dresses, as well as a whole wall of shoes and bags, with the tags still on.
"These are prepared according to your size. See if you like them." Zhou Cheng's tone was very calm, as if he wasn't talking about something worth millions, but rather a few kilograms of cabbage bought from the supermarket.
Tang Duo was speechless.
She reached out and carefully touched a Dior dress; the smooth fabric made her feel like she was dreaming.
On the other side was an equally spacious study. On the desk sat a brand-new Apple three-piece set, still in its packaging. Next to it was a small bar counter with a coffee machine and various snacks.
"This will be your little world from now on." Zhou Cheng leaned against the door, looking at her. "If you need anything for your studies or anything you lack in your daily life, just tell the housekeeper, and he will take care of it."
Tang Duo turned around and looked at Zhou Cheng.
This man, in just one day, gave her a world she never dared to dream of before.
Her eyes welled up and tears fell.
"Brother-in-law... thank you..." Her voice was choked with sobs.
"Silly girl, why are you crying?" Zhou Cheng walked over, pulled out a tissue and handed it to her. "I told you, you're my wife's sister, so you're my sister. If I'm not good to you, who else should I be good to?"
His words made Tang Duo's heart tremble violently.
In the evening, the family sat at the huge dining table on the first floor of the villa, which could seat twenty people, and ate dinner prepared by a team of Michelin three-star chefs.
Tang Jianguo and Li Xiumei were still in shock.
They thought that the "Tang Mansion" was the best time, but little did they know that it was just the beginning.
At the dinner table, Tang Duo was particularly excited, chattering excitedly to Li Xiumei and Tang Xinyi about how great the new room was.
"Auntie, my walk-in closet is huge! It's even bigger than our old living room! There are so many beautiful dresses in it!"
"Sis, my desk faces the river view; the night view must be especially beautiful!"
Li Xiumei and Tang Xinyi listened with smiles on their faces. Only Tang Jianguo drank silently, not saying much. He knew clearly what moving in here meant.
After dinner, Tang Xinyi took Tang Duo to play around the villa, while Zhou Cheng accompanied Tang Jianguo to drink tea on the sofa on the terrace.
"Uncle, are you settling in alright?" Zhou Cheng poured him some tea.
Tang Jianguo sighed and shook his head: "Too...too good, so good that I feel uneasy."
He gazed at the city lights in the distance, his voice a little hoarse: "Zhou Cheng, my wife and I, the old folks, actually still want to go back to that courtyard. This place is for you young people; we don't feel comfortable living here."
He still couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.
Moving into the "Tang Mansion" was part of his son-in-law's betrothal gifts, which he could accept. But moving into this nearly 400 million yuan "wedding house" made him feel like an outsider, taking advantage of his daughter and son-in-law.
Zhou Cheng didn't say anything, just listened quietly.
Just then, Tang Duo and Tang Xinyi ran out from inside. Tang Duo was holding an iPad in her hands and ran to Tang Jianguo's side, looking excited.
"Uncle, Uncle! Look! The curtains in this room are voice-activated! And this light can change so many colors!"
She demonstrated it to Tang Jianguo as if presenting a treasure.
Looking at his niece's radiant face, Tang Jianguo's resolve suddenly wavered.
After playing for a while, Tang Duo ran to Zhou Cheng's side, tilted her little face up, looked at him with bright eyes, and asked in a slightly hesitant and coquettish tone, "Brother-in-law, I... I can really live here forever, right?"
This question, like a key, immediately struck the softest spot in Tang Jianguo's heart.
Zhou Cheng smiled, looked at Tang Jianguo, and said meaningfully, "That's a question for your uncle. If your uncle doesn't like it here and wants to go back to that courtyard, then we'll all have to move back. You won't be able to stay here anymore."
