Jiang Wanqiu slept until the afternoon before she groggily opened her eyes.
Seeing the empty space beside her, her mood was just about to dip.
Suddenly, she spotted a sticky note on the nightstand with a line of elegant handwriting.
"When you wake up, remember to go to the kitchen downstairs. I made you some chicken soup."
Jiang Wanqiu’s eyes instantly lit up. She threw off the covers and ran to the kitchen with a PITTER-PATTER.
"The chicken soup Ah Sheng made for you smells incredible."
"Come on, little sister, let your big brother have a few sips."
Jiang Nan was practically drooling, but who could he blame? Qi Sheng had made it specifically for his sister.
He didn’t dare taste it before she did.
"In your dreams! Go ask Aunt Zhou to make you some. This is all mine!"
Jiang Wanqiu, protective of her food, pushed Jiang Nan out of the kitchen before turning to lift the lid.
A rich aroma immediately wafted from the chicken soup, which had been simmering over low heat.
"Wow, it smells so good!"
Just smelling it was enough to give Jiang Wanqiu a huge appetite.
She ladled out a bowl. The chicken inside was stewed so tender it was falling off the bone.
"It’s so delicious!"
Jiang Wanqiu took a bite of the chicken, and her eyes lit up instantly.
Soon, she had devoured the entire bowl of chicken soup.
Jiang Nan was waiting by the kitchen entrance.
He watched his sister happily drinking the soup and eating the fragrant chicken.
’Ah Sheng is so inconsiderate,’ he thought. ’He didn’t even leave a portion for his brother-in-law. Next time, I’ll have to make him cook a few more dishes no matter what.’
Jiang Nan never would have guessed that Qi Sheng, the young master of a wealthy family,
would possess such stunning culinary skills!
Good looks, a great body, money, and cooking skills.
Jiang Nan really couldn’t imagine.
What kind of woman could possibly reject a top-tier dreamboat like Qi Sheng?
"Fine. Seeing as you look so pathetic, you can have one bowl, and only one!"
Jiang Wanqiu remembered that her brother was usually very good to her and that he was also the matchmaker for her and Qi Sheng.
So, she reluctantly parted with a bowl of chicken soup for Jiang Nan.
"You little brat, at least you have some conscience. I haven’t spoiled you for nothing."
Jiang Nan eagerly took it and quickly had a taste.
"Whoa, with skills like these, Ah Sheng could rival a state banquet chef, couldn’t he?"
Jiang Nan came from a prestigious family and had eaten countless exotic delicacies.
His own family even had a Master Level chef on staff, so his palate was incredibly discerning.
But faced with Qi Sheng’s chicken soup, Jiang Nan still felt it was a truly eye-opening experience.
"Hmph, a state banquet chef can’t even compare to him!"
Jiang Wanqiu lifted her chin smugly, looking as if Qi Sheng was the most amazing person in the whole world.
"Alright, alright. Your Qi Sheng is the best, okay?"
Jiang Nan couldn’t be bothered to argue with a woman in love.
Besides, he was hoping to coax another bowl out of his sister later.
Jiang Nan had clearly overestimated his standing in his sister’s heart.
That one bowl was the full extent of the affection Jiang Wanqiu was willing to show her brother.
’Another bowl?’
Taking advantage of his free time in the afternoon, Qi Sheng had checked out a few of Shanghai’s more famous high-end villa districts.
When Jiang Nan arrived in his Volvo at the Nine Rooms Hall villa district where Qi Sheng was,
he was led in by a security guard just in time to see Qi Sheng signing some papers.
"What’s going on?"
Jiang Nan saw the female real estate agent grinning from ear to ear, her eyes practically glued to Qi Sheng with adoration. He already had his answer.
"This villa isn’t bad. I bought it to stay in once in a while."
Qi Sheng smiled and waved his hand, and the agent tactfully stepped aside.
"Aren’t you being a bit too impulsive? This is the prime villa of Nine Rooms Hall! It must be at least three hundred million!"
Jiang Nan sized up the villa before him.
Although it wasn’t as large as his family’s home, it still sat on a half-acre plot.
"It’s not that exaggerated. It was only 250 million."
Qi Sheng gestured for Jiang Nan to come and sit. The villa was already fully furnished.
The design style was modern Chinese, which he found quite satisfactory.
"The owner of this villa... wasn’t he the former richest man in Shanxi?"
Jiang Nan asked casually after sitting down.
"Mhm. After that tycoon went bankrupt, it was put up for sale. It’s considered the largest property in the entire villa district."
Qi Sheng happened to have just over 300 million on hand.
That’s why he had the opportunity to acquire this prime villa of Nine Rooms Hall.
The so-called "prime villa" refers to the one with the best location and largest area within a villa district.
It occupied a half-acre plot with a building area of 830 square meters, and the average price per square meter reached 300,000 yuan.
Although it was a bit expensive, it was justifiable considering Nine Rooms Hall was one of the few detached villa communities located in the city center, inside Shanghai’s inner ring road.
