Hearing this, Tiana smiled. "Please come inside with me. I guarantee you'll be satisfied. Aside from being expensive, Ralph Community is among the best of the middle-class neighborhoods!"

As she spoke, Tiana went to the door, took out her key, and opened it. "Mr. An, if you move in later, we can install a smart lock for free, but we don't have one yet."

Then she led Chen An and the others into the house. The first thing they saw was a spacious entryway with a plush carpet on the floor, shoe racks on both sides, and it connected to the living room.

As everyone entered the living room area, sunlight streamed in through the windows, filling the entire space with warm, white light. A light gray L-shaped sofa was paired with an antique-style walnut coffee table, and a brick fireplace was embedded in the opposite wall, with a sophisticated and vintage-style black wrought iron railing.

Several oil paintings and a blue and white porcelain vase are also placed on the fireplace, adding a touch of color to the space!

Connected to the living room is an open kitchen with pure white custom cabinets, a quartz countertop, a built-in double-door refrigerator, a dishwasher, an oven, and a microwave—it's ready to move in and use right away.

After looking around from top to bottom, Chen An finally understood what living was all about. The environment here was hundreds of times better than the Graffiti Building!

"Mr. An, what I like most about this house is its backyard. Please come with me," Tiana said with a smile.

Then, he led Chen An and the other three through the door to the backyard. Upon arriving at the backyard, they saw a neat lawn with dark pebbles forming clean lines along its edges.

There's a rattan outdoor sofa set up, along with swings and other relaxation facilities. It's incredibly comfortable to sit here in the afternoon, have some tea, and read a book.

On the other side stands a barbecue grill, where you can have a simple barbecue or party every now and then.

"Mr. An, are you satisfied?" Tiana asked nervously.

Chen An nodded. "I'm very satisfied. How about you, little sister?"

Chen Wan nodded repeatedly, "Satisfied, extremely satisfied. I've never lived in such a nice house before. It's exactly the house of my dreams."

"What do you think, Carl?"

Carl said, "I'm fine with anything, I've even lived in a basement, I don't care where I live."

Seeing this, Chen An looked at Tiana, "Then let's sign the contract, and can we move in immediately?"

Tiana's expression brightened. "Yes, Mr. An, once the contract is signed and the deposit and rent are paid, you will have the right to reside in these three houses, and no one can stop you."

"Shall I prepare the contract for you now?"

Upon seeing Chen An nod, Tiana hurriedly walked towards the arriving car to retrieve the contract.

Chen Wan continued to visit various places.

"Boss, are we moving here after this? What about the Graffiti Building?" Carl asked.

"Don't worry about that, someone will keep an eye on that place for me," Chen An said. After all, it was impossible for all the assassins to live in the three buildings. At most, ten could live there to protect him, while the rest would still live in the Graffiti Building.

Now that the housing issue is resolved, there's no need to worry about it for a long time. Next up is the car, but he doesn't know which car to buy and wants to get a driver's license.

In the United States, a driver's license is sometimes your travel ID, because there are no national ID cards here; you basically have to show your driver's license or green card or other documents.

A short while later, Tiana returned, holding a contract. "Mr. An, is a one-year contract acceptable?"

"No problem," Chen An said. "As for the rest, you can talk to my sister; she knows more about these things."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wan also came over, picked up the contract on the table and began to browse it. She then asked Tiana some questions and details about the contract, which Chen An found very professional.

Tiana was also surprised that the Chinese woman in front of her knew so much about American law. Fortunately, she hadn't tampered with the contract, otherwise she might have lost such a big client.

"Brother, there shouldn't be any problems. Just pay a one-month deposit and a one-month rent," Chen Wan said.

"Okay, let's sign the contract then."

They quickly signed the contract and paid the deposit and rent, totaling $27,000, a terrifying amount. Fortunately, he could afford it given his current situation, since the docks earned more in a day!

"Mr. An, I hope you have a pleasant stay. If you need anything, please feel free to call me. This is my business card, and these are the keys to the three houses, which I'm also handing over to you." Tiana handed over some handover documents to Chen An before bidding farewell and preparing to leave.

She approached Karl, smiled seductively, and said, "Karl, remember to contact me. I'll buy you a drink."

Karl's eyes lit up, and he said, "Great idea, Tiana!"

They then sat down on the sofa in the living room. "Karl, come with me back to the Graffiti Building and move these things over here."

"Yes, boss."

"Sister, you and Emily stay home and wait for us to come back."

Chen An and Carl then went outside, got into their car, and drove towards the Graffiti Building.

A short while later, the pickup truck came to a smooth stop in front of the graffiti building. The two got out of the car and walked into the building. When they reached the fifth floor, they met Cameron.

"Boss."

"Cameron, what are you doing here? Is there something you need?" Chen An asked.

"Nothing much, we just noticed that the boss hasn't been coming back much lately and wanted to ask what happened. We'd like to help out."

Chen An smiled and said, "It's nothing. I've been taking care of my sister at the hospital these past few days. By the way, Karl and I are moving out soon, so you can stay in this house."

"Huh? Boss, you're moving out? Who will we pay the money to? Don't you want us anymore?" Cameron asked in surprise.

"No, everyone else will be staying here. You can give them the money later, and if anything happens, you can tell them, and they will tell me."

"I see." Cameron nodded. "Then I'll get back to work."

"Go ahead. By the way, there are basically no restrictions in the South District anymore. You can go there to collect scrap and do some small business. Just keep expanding the scale. This task is entrusted to you."

"Yes, boss." Cameron smiled.

The two then returned to their room. He asked Carl to call Hank, while he sat on the sofa, ready to do a high-level lottery draw.

The reason he rented instead of buying a house was this: money should be spent wisely, he thought to himself.

"System, recharge $100,000 for a ten-pull."

[Ding! Please confirm your recharge!]

"top up."

As Chen An silently recited the command, ten more blind boxes appeared before him. He opened them all, and the first one that appeared was the Purple Light!

The purple entries are back!
