Villa 28

Chapter 1

Chu Dongsheng got off the No. 14 bus and began to walk according to the direction of Gaud Map.

This was the last rental house he would look at. If he did not succeed this time, he could only bite the bullet and go back to his hometown under his parents' scolding. He would bid farewell to this international metropolis.

He had just graduated and was unemployed. Even the tutor could not help but shake his head and sigh when he saw him.

However, Chu Dongsheng angrily thought that Chu Dongsheng was lamenting his unattainable performance. After all, in terms of employment rate, Chu Dongsheng could be said to have dragged down the whole class. There were a total of 20 students in the environmental science major, and 19 of them were employed. He was the only one who was "unemployed." No matter how he looked at it, he was also the one who pulled down the standard of the whole class.

Chu Dongsheng believed that he should follow his heart. He was a young man with principles, standpoints, and thoughts. He was a young man with principles, a standpoint, a plan, and a way of thinking. He didn't care about material gains or personal losses. He was a young man with principles, a standpoint, a plan, and a mind.

However, the only thing that made him feel very regretful was that he did not have money.

The rental house called "Mansion" was so remote that the bus was unwilling to drive even one meter forward.

There was only Chu Dongsheng at the terminal. Under the curious expression of the driver, Chu Dongsheng quickly got off the bus.

At this moment, Gaud Map was reminding him, "GPS signal is weak, location update may be delayed, please go to the main road to relocate."

What the hell is this place!

Chu Dongsheng wiped his face. It had not started to snow yet, but the temperature in the suburbs was really not flattering.

He shrank his neck, rubbed his hands, and continued to zoom in and out of the stuck map.

If it were not for the person who kept emphasizing in WeChat that the price was negotiable, he would never come to such a place to suffer like this!

These rental websites were all putting up a front and selling dog meat!

Originally, Chu Dongsheng only wanted to rent a bed. However, when he looked online at the "golden location", "beautiful scenery", "hot sale", and "real objects" that could not even be called houses, Chu Dongsheng almost began to doubt his life. Not only the basement, but there were also people living in the attic!

A small mezzanine that was less than 30 square meters had eight people living in it, but there were also pets!

Of course, Chu Dongsheng liked cats, but it did not mean that he was willing to live in the attic with seven men and ten stray cats!

"Yeah, it's really hard to find a caring co-tenant these days," the seven "caring" co-tenants said.

Chu Dongsheng wanted to cry but had no tears. She was the epitome of a cat!

After the map successfully led him in a big circle, Chu Dongsheng finally decided to quit the app and try his luck.

If God was willing to give him a chance, he could find it even if he walked blindly!

Chu Dongsheng walked straight ahead with his hands in his pockets. The road was getting steeper and steeper, and the howling wind was getting stronger and stronger. When he finally reached the end of the road, he suddenly saw a wide open space in front of him, a glimmer of hope!

"The sea!" It was Chu Dongsheng's first time looking down at the sea from such a high place.

The midday sun dispelled the fierce wind and the sparkling sea made Chu Dongsheng want to cry. When his legs were about to break, he finally walked to the end of the road.

However, when he turned around, a majestic building came into view.

City...

A castle?!

Stone?

The winding path led to the palace-like building. Chu Dongsheng did not care about anything else. He only had one goal in mind: rush up!

Then, he knelt down and begged the owner to let him use the toilet!

After withstanding the cold wind for almost forty minutes, he could no longer hold it in!

Huffing and puffing, he crawled to the finish line. Waiting for him was a smiling, chubby man.

The man narrowed his eyes and looked up and down at the panting Chu Dongsheng. He exclaimed, "Brother, it must have been hard for you to come all the way here!"

While Chu Dongsheng was bewildered, he saw the man, who was no taller than 1.7 meters, take out his mobile phone. A chat record appeared in front of him. "Chu Dongsheng, right? I am the landlord of this villa, a single man."

If it were not for Chu Dongsheng's good self-control, he would have wet his pants on the spot.

This single boy, who used an eight-pack as his profile picture and wrote "38-year-old diamond bachelor" on his personal information, deeply illustrated the meaning of deception in person and in photos.

"I actually went the right way?!

By the way, are you sure this is the house for rent?! "Chu Dongsheng was so scared that he almost wet his pants. This was not a mansion, it was simply a palace!

The single old man replied with a smile, "Yes, it's here."

He took a piece of paper out of his coat pocket with great pride, cleared his throat, and began to read it:

"It is located in the prime area on the outskirts of H City!

It is magnificent, carved with jade, facing the sea, and backed by mountains.

The scenery is picturesque, and the climate is suitable all year round.

It is the mansion that millions of people dream of — Villa 28! "

Chu Dongsheng was petrified in front of the single old man.

"Anyway, this is it." The single old man laughed, revealing two golden front teeth. "How is it?

Can't help but want to move in? "

Chu Dongsheng bluntly said, "Brother, I am actually quite poor. I can't even afford to rent this house of yours."

"How can it be? It's very cheap. I only charge you 800 a month."

Chu Dongsheng subconsciously squeezed his legs. "800?!"

The single old man sighed and said, "If my uncle hadn't died in this house, I would never rent it to you at this price."

Chu Dongsheng felt goosebumps all over his body. He stamped his feet hard to regain some blood in his stiff limbs. "Someone died?!

You mean this palace …

Someone died?! "

The single old man patted him on the shoulder meaningfully. "Little brother, I can tell that you are an outstanding socialist youth. Don't tell me you think it is' ominous' like those people?"

Chu Dongsheng swallowed hard. "That …

I will reply to you tomorrow …

Is that okay? "

"No problem at all.

I am a very reasonable person. "

The big Gold Tooth reflected the bright sunlight, almost blinding Chu Dongsheng's pair of titanium eyes. "Then tonight, you can find a room to stay in."

"Huh?

Brother, I didn't say I would stay here tonight! "

"Brother, today is Saturday. The bus two miles away will only come once. If you refuse to stay here, you can only sleep outside. By the way, did you bring a tent?"

"Then, big brother, you will also stay for one night?"

The single old man smiled. The Gold Tooth flashed again. "Of course not. My secretary will come to pick me up soon."

Chu Dongsheng's eyes were filled with tears. "Can I hitch a ride with you, brother?"

"I'm afraid it's not appropriate."

The sound of the wind above his head turned into the noise of the helicopter's propellers. On the platform where Chu Dongsheng had just enjoyed the sea view a few minutes ago, a helicopter was slowly landing!

"I have to go to Toronto. Sorry, I can't give you a ride."
