Chapter 176:
Frank explained, "Allow me to introduce this bottle of wine to you. This 2009 Petrus red wine is a product from the top-notch Petrus vineyard. Its aroma is highly sensuous, featuring lively and intricate spices, sweet ripe plums, blackberries, and violet. It's simply mesmerizing. The structure of the wine is concentrated and profound, offering a full- bodied and rich flavor, with notes of black fruits, mocha, and chocolate."
Following his introduction, the wine glasses in front of Bright and Melody were filled to one-third.
"Please enjoy." Said Frank as he bowed slightly.
Then, he turned around and left.
After Frank departed, Bright and Melody took a small taste.
Instantly, the delicate aroma of the wine exploded on their taste buds.
Both their faces showed signs of pleasure.
Then, Bright turned his gaze to lan and asked, "Do you want a glass as well?"
Hearing Bright's words, lan finally came back to his senses.
Quickly, he refused. "Oh, no need. I just remembered that I have a movie date with Cecilia, and the movie is about to start."
After that, lan could no longer continue sitting there.
He quickly grabbed Cecilia and left in a very awkward manner.
Seeing lan's sorry state, Melody could no longer hold back.
With a snort, she burst out laughing.
That made lan look even more awkward and embarrassed. The pace of his feet quickened a bit.
After finishing dinner, Bright and Melody went to watch a movie.
Then, they walked along the Lake Gardens.
The round moon in the sky was emitting silvery white moonlight.
"It's so beautiful." Melody was somewhat entranced looking at the moon.
Her cheeks were also slightly flushed from the afterglow of the red wine.
"This moon is beautiful, but not as beautiful as you." As he spoke, Bright gently took her hand.
Then, with a soft tug, he pulled her into his embrace.
He bent down slightly. Their lips met.
Melody didn't offer any resistance.
Instead, she wrapped her arms around Bright's waist.
The two of them leaned against the railings by the Lake Gardens.
The breeze brushed past as things between the two of them began heating up.
….
Early the next morning, Bright came back to his senses inside the hotel.
Surveying the disastrous state of the room and recalling the pleasure he had experienced the night before, a grin tugged at the corner of his mouth.
"Not bad." There was a bit of amusement in his voice.
Bright was in quite an excellent mood.
"Let's see what 'Trillion Subsidies' has today." He thought.
With that, Bright opened the app on his phone.
After the app launched, the products for sale appeared before Bright.
It read: "Golden Bay, Building 6: $199"
Upon seeing that, Bright paused slightly.
Another property?
He hadn't expected that the app would offer him an entire building.
"Whatever, I will just buy it first." Bright murmured in his heart.
Then, he purchased the property in Golden Bay Community.
(Purchase successful! Your product is in transit. Estimated delivery time: 15 minutes. Please wait for your product to arrive.)
"15 minutes? Not bad." Bright nodded slightly.
Then, he continued scrolling through his phone.
The 15 minutes passed swiftly.
Bright was still in the bathroom when the doorbell rang.
….
Melody, who was sleeping, woke up from the sound of the doorbell.
Then, she opened her sleepy eyes.
"Who is it?" She mumbled, walking over to the door.
Upon opening the door, there was no one in sight.
There was just a parcel on the ground.
"A parcel?" She wondered with a hint of confusion.
Nevertheless, she picked up the box.
Then, she looked at the name written on it.
"Bright, you've got a package!" She called out.
Melody brought the box back into the room.
"Okay, open it up for me." Bright said while stepping out.
It was probably his property certificate.
"What's in it? Why is it so heavy?" Melody grumbled before placing the box on the table.
She was sweating profusely.
Then, she picked up a fruit knife that was lying next to her and used it to cut the box open.
When it was opened, a stack of property ownership certificates were what greeted her.
"Are these… property ownership certificates?!"
At that moment, Melody was completely stunned.
She had never expected the box to be filled with property ownership certificates.
She picked up a random one.
After flipping it open, she saw Bright's name clearly written on it.
She grabbed another one.
Again, it was Bright.
Staring at the property certificates, Melody gulped.
Melody swallowed hard. "I-Is everything in this box a property ownership certificate?"
Right then, Melody was somewhat flustered.
When she saw the name of the residential community on the property certificates, she was left utterly astounded.
Golden Bay community?
That was an incredibly familiar place to Melody.
After all, that community was located right next to Lake Gardens.
Furthermore, the average price of the houses had reached a whopping 100 thousand per square meter.
Bright's property ownership certificates stated that each house had an area of 149 square meters, which meant that one unit cost 14 million.
With so many certificates, Melody roughly estimated that they were at least 200.
That meant everything was worth 2.8 billion combined.
Melody gulped.
A monstrous wave was coursing through her heart.
She knew that Bright had money, but the moment she saw those 200 property deeds, she was still utterly shocked.
….
At that moment, Bright walked out from the bathroom.
Upon seeing him, Melody swallowed and asked, "Bright, about this…"
"What? They are just a few property deeds, nothing much." Bright replied nonchalantly.
His tone sounded casual and dismissive, but Melody's mouth twitched slightly.
Just a few property deeds?
How could he say that?
There was a whopping 209 certificates there, and they were worth 2.8 billion altogether!
How could that be considered 'just a few property deeds'?
Was that how rich people saw things?
At that moment, Melody was rendered somewhat speechless.
Meanwhile, Bright randomly picked up one of them.
After briefly flipping through it, he calmly said, "Perfect! Golden Bay is nearby, come check the units out with me."
"Uh, maybe not. We stayed up late last night, I'm still a bit sleepy now…" Melody yawned with evident exhaustion on her face.
Hearing Melody's words, Bright felt a bit embarrassed as well.
THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE CONTINOUS SUPPORT…
