"Jingxing, is this... your village's parking lot?"
Lin Wei linked arms with Wu Jingxing and followed carefully behind him, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes filled with disbelief and shock.
Looking around at the top-of-the-line luxury cars that gleamed with a cold yet alluring luster under the lights, she felt her brain was struggling to process what was happening.
Although she knew that Wu Jingxing came from an extraordinary family, she never dreamed that his family background would be this extraordinary.
The total value of the cars in this parking lot alone is probably enough to buy several listed companies.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg in Wujia Village.
"Well, I guess so." Wu Jingxing couldn't help but laugh at her adorable, naive look. "Our village is small, so to avoid affecting the village's appearance, all outside vehicles are parked here."
He spoke of it casually, as if it were something perfectly normal.
But in Lin Wei's heart, a raging storm was brewing.
She looked around at the distinguished men and women who stepped out of luxury cars.
Some of them were dressed in suits and ties, exuding an aura of authority in every gesture.
Some of them are dressed fashionably and exude the dazzling star power of top celebrities in the entertainment industry.
Others were dressed in military uniforms, with sharp eyes like knives, exuding an aura of iron-bloodedness that kept strangers at bay.
Lin Wei felt as if she had stumbled into a top-tier world of fame and fortune, a place that only exists in movies and novels, where celebrities gather.
She instinctively gripped Wu Jingxing's arm and leaned closer to him, as if only in this way could she feel a little bit of security.
"Don't be afraid." Wu Jingxing sensed her nervousness, so he reached out and gently patted the back of her hand, softly comforting her, "They are all family, they won't eat people."
Just then.
"Oh, who do we have here with such a grand entrance? It's our Wall Street Wolf, Jing Xing, back!"
A mocking voice came from not far away.
Wu Jingxing and Lin Wei looked in the direction of the sound.
Wu Zhangyang, wearing a Versace printed jacket and with his hair dyed granny gray, was walking towards them with a wicked grin on his face.
Behind him followed Wu Qihua, who was wearing an Armani suit and gold-rimmed glasses.
"Zhang Yang, Brother Qihua." Wu Jingxing greeted them with a smile.
"You're something else, kid." Wu Zhangyang stepped forward and gave Wu Jingxing a big hug. Then his gaze fell on Lin Wei, who was standing next to Wu Jingxing and looked a little nervous with her head down.
His eyes lit up instantly.
"Tsk tsk tsk." He looked Lin Wei up and down. Although his gaze was scrutinizing, it was not malicious at all. Instead, it was more of a pure appreciation.
"Jingxing, you have good taste! Where did you find such a beautiful wife? She's as fresh and delicate as a tender scallion just sprouting in the Jiangnan water towns. She's completely different from those 'female warriors' in our village who are always shouting and fighting."
Wu Zhangyang's words were direct and blunt.
Lin Wei's face flushed red instantly, all the way to her ears.
She instinctively hid behind Wu Jingxing, like a startled fawn.
"Zhang Yang, you can't say anything nice." Wu Qihua, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore. He glared at Wu Zhang Yang and then gave Lin Wei a gentle smile.
"Hello, sister-in-law. I'm Wu Qihua, Jingxing's cousin. Don't mind him, Zhang Yang has always been so outspoken since he was a child."
"Hello, Brother Qihua." Lin Wei looked at the gentle and refined man in front of her, and her nervousness eased a little. She replied softly.
"Hello, sister-in-law!" Wu Zhangyang greeted her with a grin. "My name is Wu Zhangyang. You can just call me Zhangyang, like Jingxing."
He couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw Lin Wei looking so shy that she almost buried her head in her chest.
"Hahaha! Interesting! Very interesting! Jingxing, you're something else! You've finally found a decent, shy woman for our Wu Family Village!"
His laughter was hearty and full of goodwill.
Although Lin Wei's face was still burning red after his teasing, the tension and unease in her heart had unconsciously dissipated a lot.
She sensed that these people, though they all appeared to have a powerful aura and were either rich or noble, were all from wealthy or powerful families.
But the way they get along is more like brothers in a big family, playfully teasing each other.
There was none of the backstabbing and hypocrisy she had imagined among wealthy families.
The atmosphere here was much better than she had imagined.
"By the way, Jingxing," Wu Qihua looked at Wu Jingxing and asked, "Are you planning to stay for a long time this time, or...?"
"We'll see." Wu Jingxing's face showed a serious expression. "It mainly depends on what the young master thinks."
When the "young master" was mentioned, both Ng Kai-wah and Ng Cheung-yeung put away their joking expressions.
"That's true." Wu Qihua nodded. "All we juniors can do is to do our own jobs well."
"As for the rest, that's beyond our control."
While the group was chatting idly...
A small commotion suddenly arose on the other side of the parking lot.
An elderly man dressed in a simple gray jacket and leaning on a dragon-headed cane was seen slowly walking towards the elevator, surrounded by a group of people.
That's right, Wu Zhenguo.
"It's Uncle Zhenguo!" Wu Qihua's expression instantly turned serious.
"Let's go over and say hello."
The three of them dared not delay and quickly walked over.
"Uncle Zhenguo!"
"Uncle Zhenguo, you're still so healthy!"
Wu Jingxing, Wu Qihua, and Wu Zhangyang bowed respectfully to Wu Zhenguo.
"Hmm." Wu Zhenguo looked at the three young men in front of him, the most outstanding among the younger generation of Wu Family Village, and a rare gentle smile appeared on his usually serious face.
"You three lads did a great job last year." He patted each of them on the shoulder to encourage them.
Then, his gaze fell on Lin Wei, who had been hiding behind Wu Jingxing and seemed somewhat at a loss.
His weathered yet incredibly sharp eyes sized Lin Wei up and down.
Lin Wei felt a tightness in her heart when he looked at her, and even her breathing became a little difficult.
She felt as if she were being watched by a sleeping lion.
It felt as if all my inner thoughts were laid bare under the other person's sharp gaze.
Just when she was about to succumb to the immense pressure.
A kind smile suddenly appeared on Wu Zhenguo's serious face.
"Hmm, not bad." He nodded, his voice soft but full of certainty, "She's a good girl."
"Jingxing, you're a lucky guy."
