How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Lunch was still very sumptuous...

Shark fin, bird's nest, abalone belly, you name it, it wasn't inferior to a customized banquet in a high-end restaurant.

However, Gu Heng had been tasting various Cantonese Cuisine dishes these past few days, and his sensitivity to them had plummeted...

Not to mention that he was preoccupied now, his mind filled with the luxury cars inside Lu Yuan's collection, so he hardly ate much...

"What's the matter, not to your liking?"

Seeing Gu Heng eating only a little before putting down his chopsticks, Lu Yuan asked.

"Ever since I haven't seen Brother Lu's garage, I've been too preoccupied, and my appetite isn't great."

Hearing Gu Heng's teasing, Lu Yuan was startled, then chuckled and said, "I said I'd sell you a car, and I will sell you one. Do you think I'd go back on my word?"

"Who knows, I met Wu Yifeng on Hong Kong Island before, and he said you love your cars dearly. Who knows if you'd suddenly change your mind? If I don't secure your treasure, how could I have an appetite?"

At that, Lu Yuan shook his head, laughing, "Loving cars dearly might be an exaggeration, but I do have a special fondness for sports cars. When I was studying in the UK, I even joined an amateur racing team. If I hadn't jumped straight into taking over the family business after graduation, maybe I'd be a professional racing driver now."

Hearing the regret in Lu Yuan's voice, Gu Heng didn't know whether he was being serious or just showing off ostentatiously...

Inheriting the family business and becoming a tycoon on the Hurun Rich List, yet regretting not being a professional racing driver?

Coming from a small family background, Gu Heng couldn't understand the thoughts of these wealthy second-generation kids...

Seeing the perfunctory expression on Gu Heng's face, Lu Yuan didn't say more. He turned his head and spoke to the butler standing not far away, "Chen, go open the underground garage. I'll take Gu Heng for a visit."

"Alright, I'll take care of it."

"Happy now? I'll take you to the garage later, and you can choose any car you like. Can I eat in peace now?"

"Sure, sure, Brother Lu. You enjoy your meal; I'll take a stroll around your villa."

Seeing the ingratiating, youthful expression on Gu Heng's face, Lu Yuan was reminded of similar things he had done in the past to buy a good car, and he smiled, shaking his head.

"Alright, I'll have someone show you around."

With that, he signalled a servant with his eyes to guide Gu Heng.

A villa sprawling over two thousand square meters...

To say one could get lost in it would be an exaggeration, but without a guide, it really wouldn't be easy to explore the entire place, especially since the interior design of such high-end villas was always incredibly intricate...

Gu Heng gave Lu Yuan an OK sign and followed the servant's lead.

.....

.....

20 minutes later.

Sitting on the sofa sipping tea, Lu Yuan saw Gu Heng come downstairs and smiled, asking, "How is it?"

Gu Heng didn't speak but gave a thumbs-up.

It was genuine admiration...

Gu Heng had no concept of a palace, but looking at the arrangement of Lu Yuan's villa, he thought that the royal palaces probably weren't much different from Lu Yuan's, especially the main bedroom of over 200 square meters...

In an era where acquiring a 100 square meter two-bedroom apartment is considered successful...

A 200-plus square meter main bedroom is something ordinary people wouldn't even dare to dream of...

"The villa comes with integrated decoration; the interior was all included with the purchase. Each of the eighteen villas in Dayi Villa has a different style of decor.

The 'King of the Villas' you're going to see later also has pre-installed decorations that I heard cost over 40 million, much fancier than mine," Lu Yuan said, pausing briefly before continuing, "I've already notified the sales department at Dayi Villa, and someone will come around two o'clock, so you can check out the house after you've seen the cars in the garage."

At Lu Yuan's words, Gu Heng's eyes lit up.

"Brother Lu, are you saying that these villas are those 'move-in with just a suitcase' types?"

The phrase "move-in with just a suitcase" paired with these billion-worth luxury mansions felt oddly mismatched, as if the prestige of Asia's top ten luxury homes had been downgraded to that of standard low-rent apartments...

But Lu Yuan couldn't think of a better term to replace "move-in with just a suitcase" in the moment and could only nod silently.

Maybe for the truly sophisticated rich, having everything pre-decorated isn't all that appealing.

If they don't like it, they might even have to redo it all over again.

But!

That only applies to those stylishly rich, not including Gu Heng.

Gu Heng had a clear self-awareness, seeing himself as just a lucky upstart.

What sense of aesthetics did he have?

Every luxurious mansion he saw online could only be described in one way.

And that was awesome...

So, for him, having pre-decorated interiors was all gain and no loss.

Watching Gu Heng's eager look, Lu Yuan wasn't sure what to say momentarily. Until just now, he had thought Gu Heng was merely window-shopping and didn't believe he was serious about buying.

After all, who would buy a mansion worth over two hundred million except for those cash-rich top moguls? That's why the 'King of the Villas' had not sold for many years despite the many rich visitors. Perhaps there were other factors involved, but the biggest one was just one.

It's too expensive...

Most people simply can't afford it...

Because of that, Lu Yuan had thought Gu Heng was just looking around, a chance to perform his duty as a host and help kill some time...

But seeing Gu Heng's current expression, the kid seemed serious about buying...

With that thought, Lu Yuan stood up and said to Gu Heng, "We'll talk about the house later. The sales team will probably need a little time to prepare. Let's head to my garage first."
