Hades, the Urban Legend

Chapter 11: Chapter 11: New Home

After asking many people along the way, Yang Chen finally leisurely arrived at the address written on the card, Dragon View Garden. Upon arrival, Yang Chen deeply understood just how affluent his beautiful wife was.

Dragon View Garden was an upscale villa area in the suburbs. The distance between each villa was at least a mile, surrounded by pavilions, towers, and greenery, exuding a rich and elegant European classical style.

The security guards at the entrance, seeing Yang Chen's unfamiliar face, showed some confusion, wondering how a wealthy person would walk in. However, upon seeing his expensive suit, they didn't question much, saving Yang Chen the trouble of explaining.

Once inside Dragon View Garden, Yang Chen walked for over two kilometers before reaching villa number 89 as indicated in the address. The entire villa covered an area of over four hundred square meters, not including the outdoor swimming pool and the huge garage. The Baroque-style villa was built with heavy marble, and it was hard to imagine how much money such a house would cost.

After ringing the doorbell, the exquisitely carved mahogany door was quickly opened by a woman wearing casual clothes and an apron. There were some signs of aging on her face, but she had taken good care of herself and didn't look much older than forty or fifty. Seeing Yang Chen, she greeted him warmly with a hint of joy in her eyes, "You must be Sir, Miss has told me that you would come today. Please come in."

Seeing the woman's friendly demeanor, Yang Chen also relaxed a bit and smiled as he entered, asking, "What should I call you, Big Sister?"

"I'm Wang Yulan, you can call me Aunt Wang," Wang Yulan replied with a smile. "How could you, as Sir, call me Big Sister? I've watched Miss grow up, so Aunt Wang suits me better."

"Wang Mama doesn't look old at all. She would definitely turn heads on the street." Yang Chen sincerely remarked.

No woman would dislike being praised for her beauty, and Wang Mama, despite being middle-aged, was no exception. She felt even happier upon hearing the compliment. After inviting Yang Chen to sit down, she cheerfully said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I'm almost done in the kitchen. I'll bring you something to welcome you. It's a pity Miss has a meeting and won't be able to come back."

"Wang Mama, is it just you and Lin... oh, Ruoxi living in this house?" Yang Chen looked around. The entire villa was divided into three floors, equipped with modern appliances, pristine leather sofas, black marble floors, mahogany furniture, and several paintings by famous artists hung on the walls. A few pots of blooming orchids swayed by the window, giving off a simple yet elegant vibe. However, looking at the numerous closed doors on the second and third floors, Yang Chen felt the emptiness keenly.

Wang Mama sighed with some sadness, "Yes, it's just us two women living here, which feels quite desolate. Miss is also busy with work and hardly ever at home. Usually, it's just me alone in this big house. But now, with Sir here, we finally have a man in the house. That makes it feel more like a proper home."

Seeing Wang Mama's satisfied expression, Yang Chen couldn't help but ask curiously, "Wang Mama, don't you find it strange that Ruoxi suddenly married me?"

"Hehe," Wang Mama chuckled, "Sir, I've watched Miss grow up. From childhood to adulthood, she never had a boyfriend, although there were plenty of men pursuing her. But she never showed any interest in them. Now that she's decided to marry you, Sir, there must be something special about you. Miss is very clever, and I trust her judgment. There's nothing to be surprised about."

Yang Chen nodded understandingly, but in his heart, he couldn't help but wonder. Wang Mama couldn't have imagined that his marriage to Lin Ruoxi was a contractual one.

After enjoying a hearty lunch, Yang Chen patted his round belly contentedly and chuckled, "Wang Mama, your cooking is amazing. It tastes much better than those fancy restaurants."

Wang Mama's face lit up with joy. "Really? Then Sir, you should eat at home more often. Miss often has sudden matters and doesn't come back home, so when I cook and there's no one to eat it, it's quite a waste."

"That girl doesn't appreciate good food. Just cook the delicious meals for me," Yang Chen said, patting his chest confidently.

Wang Mama knew Yang Chen was joking and happily nodded in agreement.

After tidying up, Wang Mama took off her apron and said, "Sir, let me show you the room where you'll be staying. If there's anything you need, let me know, and I'll get it for you."

"My room?" Yang Chen was momentarily stunned, remembering that he had agreed not to share a room with Lin Ruoxi. As Wang Mama led the way, she continued, "Miss has thought of everything for you. She said you're used to sleeping alone, so she prepared a spacious, separate room for you and even bought plenty of clothes for you to keep in there."

"Really? Hmm... Ruoxi is quite considerate," Yang Chen said, rubbing his nose, even though he himself felt the words were insincere.

"Isn't she? I've never seen Miss care so much for any man before. Also, Miss mentioned that since you're currently busy with work, you two should get married first and have the wedding banquet later when you're both free. She really has been thinking about you," Wang Mama said with a smile.

Yang Chen couldn't help but sweat a little. What work was Lin Ruoxi talking about? She must have prepped Wang Mama in advance, making him the excuse for everything. What could be so busy about selling lamb skewers?

Upon entering his room, Yang Chen was surprised by its size. It was indeed enormous, almost larger than the entire area of his rented apartment. The white sheer curtains fluttered by the floor-to-ceiling windows, there was a low king-size bed, a 42-inch Sony LED TV, and an Apple computer on the bedside table. The classic-style table lamp and the glossy wooden floor added to the room's elegance. In the corner, a large two-layer wardrobe was filled with brand new clothes, ties, and leather shoes.

Yang Chen smiled to himself. His beautiful wife hadn't skimped on him, preparing everything needed for their act.

"So, how is it? Are you satisfied, Sir?" Wang Mama asked warmly.

"Of course, I'm satisfied. This is much better than I expected. Thank you, Wang Mama," Yang Chen nodded.

"Thank Miss for that. I only ran a few errands," Wang Mama replied, already eager to help foster the young couple's relationship.

Yang Chen, aware of Wang Mama's intentions, didn't point them out. "Wang Mama, I still have some things at my old place. I need to go fetch them, so I'll be heading out for a bit."

"That's understandable. There are always some things one is used to," Wang Mama agreed.

"But..." Yang Chen smiled awkwardly. "Wang Mama, is there any transportation available here? Even a bicycle would do, just to make the trip quicker."

Wang Mama looked at Yang Chen in surprise, as if she had seen something incredible. "Sir, did you really walk all the way here?"

"Unfortunately, you guessed correctly," Yang Chen said, spreading his hands.

Wang Mama couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. "This Miss, how could she let you walk here? Sir, now that you're living here, you can't just walk around. You should at least have a car. Come with me. We have a few cars at home that are usually idle. You can take one of them."

Yang Chen's eyes lit up. He had previously seen Lin Ruoxi driving a Bentley Mulsanne and had felt an itch, but he didn't have the money to buy a car and had been envious ever since. Could it be that he might get a car for free now?

Following Wang Mama, Yang Chen's mind raced with excitement. As they reached the garage, Wang Mama pointed out a few cars. "Take your pick, Sir. Any one of these will do."

Yang Chen glanced around and spotted several luxury cars. He could hardly contain his excitement. "Thank you, Wang Mama. This is really generous."

"You're welcome, Sir. Just make sure to thank Miss properly when she gets home," Wang Mama replied with a knowing smile.

Yang Chen nodded, still a bit dazed by his good fortune, and chose a sleek, black car. As he got in and started the engine, he couldn't help but marvel at his luck. This arrangement might be more beneficial than he initially thought.
