I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

Chapter 349 - 349 Establishing Dominance

349 Establishing Dominance

The group quickly arrived at the Shen Manor.

As expected of the family with the strongest foundation amongst the capital’s four great families, the manor that the Shen Family lived in was located in the city center, a place where the land price was exorbitant. In addition, the Shen Manor was at least double the size of the Bai Manor.

On their way here, Shen Ruojing thought that this was a district when she looked at the tall walls.

However, it was only when they arrived at the door did she discover that the entire stretch of land belonged to the Shen Family!

The place was so high-profile, flaunting its presence. Two stone lions bared their fangs and claws at the door, bringing out the same flair that ancient nobles would have!

However, the architecture was ancient-style, and the heavy red walls brought out a historical charm. One could tell from these that this family was very powerful.

Lu Cheng drove while Yun Yiheng took the front passenger seat. Looking at the magnificent iron gate, he was too shocked for words. “Isn’t this too impressive and high-profile?”

They said that the capital was filled with influential families everywhere. Any tile that dropped off from the sky could land on either someone from an influential or distinguished family.

Therefore, most people kept a low profile in doing things. However, this was clearly not the case for the Shen Family.

Lu Cheng said, “This is nothing.”

(Bro Chen’s residence overseas is a palace, and it is a lot more impressive and luxurious than the Shen Manor!)

Chu Cichen didn’t show much expression when looking at a residence like this.

However, he had always been one who didn’t show his feelings on his face.

Shen Ruojing, on the other hand, clicked her tongue.

Chu Cichen immediately looked at her with his expressionless face, asking, “You like this manor?”

“I do.” Shen Ruojing tilted her head and smiled. “It’s rustic and impressive!”

Such a great manor would definitely have all sorts of entertainment facilities. It’d allow one to have an extremely comfortable retirement life!

When Yun Yiheng heard her description, he almost choked on his own saliva.

How was this rustic and impressive? It was clearly a high-profile extravagance!

However, at the next moment, he heard Chu Cichen say. “Then I’ll buy it.”

Yun Yiheng. “!!!”

Yun Yiheng didn’t have any monetary worries since young, which allowed him to focus on music in school. Furthermore, the Yun Family had never cut his allowances. However, he was still astonished by Chu Cichen’s words.

(Cousin, do you know how much this manor costs?!)

This profile and land mass would probably cost several billions to tens of billions!

Just the two stone lions at the door were probably priceless!

He didn’t expect his male cousin, someone who had always been stern and indifferent, to also be one to start boasting to coax a woman.

Yun Yiheng then looked at Shen Ruojing, who replied calmly, “No need.”

Yun Yiheng heaved a sigh of relief.

At the next moment, he heard the woman say indifferently, “With fewer people, living here will be an inconvenience.”

“...”

Yun Yiheng was dumbfounded.

Although he knew that his female cousin was Qing Dai, his idol, and he had endless feelings of admiration toward her, he was unable to accept his two cousins taking turns to boast.

The most important thing was that Chu Cichen actually replied to her statement, “We have more children at home, and the number of people in the family will slowly grow. If the living space is small, it won’t be comfortable to live in in the future.”

Shen Ruojing thought about it. “We can build a separate one. I don’t like to stay at someone else’s house.”

Chu Cichen smiled dotingly. “Alright.”

This topic finally ended and Yun Yiheng heaved a sigh of relief.

When the Shen Family’s guard saw an oncoming car, he ran over and asked politely, “May I know who you are?”

Yun Yiheng replied, “I’m Yun Yiheng. I have an appointment with Old Master Shen to help fix his ancient zither scores.”

The guard immediately said ardently, “Alright, alright, and the others with you are?”

Lu Cheng replied, “My boss is Chu Cichen. We have an appointment with Director Shen Zhong.”

Upon hearing this, the guard’s expression immediately became awkward. “So it’s Mr. Chu!”

7th-grade officials stand in front of the Prime Minister’s door… From this saying, one could say that those who worked as guards for the Shen Family were all good at observation. So, the guard paused for a moment before pointing to the side. “Then please park the car at the car park by the roadside. The car cannot enter.”

The manor was so big, so how could it be possible that cars weren’t allowed to enter?!

The group looked over to the side.

Not far away from the left side of the Shen Manor’s gate, there was a small-scaled car park that was catered specially for the Shen Family’s servants.

The Shen Family’s masters and guests could usually drive their cars in directly. After all, it would probably take a five minutes drive from the main gate to the guest’s area and the residential area!

Hearing this, Chu Cichen’s countenance didn’t change.

However, Yun Yiheng’s countenance sank. “I’m going to meet Old Master Shen, and our appointment time is almost up. Are you sure you want us to park the car here?”

The guard naturally didn’t dare to treat the old master’s guests poorly.

However, he couldn’t ignore Mr. Shen Zhong’s instructions either. Therefore, he smiled and said, “Mr. Yun, we have a shuttle bus here and can send you straight over to where the old master is at.”

Yun Yiheng. “Then let my cousins take the shuttle bus too.”

The guard continued to smile awkwardly. “The places that you guys are going to are in different directions. It isn’t convenient.”

He then added, “Mr. Yun, this is the masters’ instructions. I’m just a guard… Please don’t make things difficult for me…”

Shen Zhong clearly wanted to make things difficult for Chu Cichen.

Shen Ruojing’s countenance sank as well.

She was about to speak up when Chu Cichen held her hand. “I don’t mind walking in. It’ll be a good chance to admire their courtyard’s layout.”

Yun Yiheng said angrily, “Then I won’t take the shuttle bus either!”

The guard heaved a sigh of relief and smiled, saying to him, “That’s right. The Shen Manor has wonderful scenery. If Mr. Yun isn’t in a rush, I can be your guide.”

It was difficult for him as a guard too.

He had to complete the tasks that the masters instructed him!

Shen Ruojing had always been one with a chill attitude. When she heard this, she nodded.

The car was parked at the side and the four of them got off. The guard then opened a side door to let them in. Yun Yiheng didn’t know about such rules, and this didn’t matter to him.

However, Shen Ruojing glanced at the guard.

The latter revealed a fawning smile once again.

Only the people who were not important guests and were here to ask for a favor would take the side door.

The guard was clearly diminishing their statuses again.

Shen Zhong wasn’t holding back against Chu Cichen at all.

Shen Ruojing herself wasn’t particular about such things, but upon seeing Chu Cichen, the little wolfdog who had always been at a superior height and had a domineering disposition, entering from such a small and narrow side door, she somehow felt a gush of fury.

It was a five minutes drive from the entrance to the residential area. However, it took them 30 minutes to walk the same distance.

It was true that the Shen Manor’s scenery was beautiful, but no matter how nice it was, the group was in no mood to admire it.

However, Chu Cichen looked very composed. Although he appeared calm, he had been surveying Shen Ruojing from the corners of his eyes.

Hmmm, Jingjing was feeling heartache for him again!

Yun Yiheng was filled with admiration for Chu Cichen when he saw this side of him.

No wonder his cousin could manage such a big company! His tolerance was so good!

They finally arrived at the owners’ residential area. The guard heaved a sigh of relief and passed the two groups to the butler.

The old master’s butler had received news long ago of their arrival. He then looked at Yun Yiheng and Shen Ruojing, saying, “Mr. Yun, Miss Shen, please come with me. Our old master is waiting for you!”
