Xiang Xiaoyuan was not disappointed. The fewer things that bound the original owner to Lu Wanggui and his son, the happier she would be. This meant their relationship was not deep. When the three of them fell apart, she could leave anytime and to anywhere.

The villa where the Lu family lived was remote and quiet. The occupancy rate in the area was not high, but there were still a lot of people coming and going.

Xiang Xiaoyuan asked the butler, “How many households do we have here?”

The butler seemed to be surprised that Xiang Xiaoyuan would take the initiative to talk to him, but he still answered honestly, “There are 260 villas here.”

The Lu family was a single-family villa that occupied an area of more than 1,000 square meters. Xiang Xiaoyuan looked up this area on the internet and found that there was a natural scenic area nearby. The environment was fresh and beautiful, and it was loved by many high-ranking officials and nobles. Those who could live here were either rich or noble.

Xiang Xiaoyuan looked around and a myriad of emotions were stirred up without unknowingly. “Is the occupancy rate high?”

The butler looked away and answered respectfully, “I heard from the property owner that it seems to be around 60% .”

Xiang Xiaoyuan was very satisfied with this occupancy rate. In this day and age, many villas were unoccupied. After all, the location of villas was mostly far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It was not convenient for people who were busy with their careers to travel around. To be able to achieve this occupancy rate meant there was a permanent community.

“Alright, I’ll go out for a walk.”

There were many empty shops outside the villa district. The district did not allow outsiders to move in and open shops. It seemed that something unpleasant had happened many years ago, so these shops had become empty.

Xiang Xiaoyuan rubbed her palms. This was practically tailor-made for her.

Other people did not care about the small profit from opening a shop, but she did!

She quickly ran home and told the butler about her intention to open a shop. “Butler, I’m bored at home every day. I want to find something to do. Do you think I can open a shop outside the community?”

The butler did not understand what owner’s wife meant. “Open a shop? Madam, you want to open a shop?”

“Yes!”

Xiang Xiaoyuan rattled off the benefits of opening a shop outside the residential area to the housekeeper. “Look, by opening a shop outside the residential area, if I run into trouble, you can help me at any time. I can also use this opportunity to get acquainted with the people in the residential area. Maybe I can even make a few friends…”

At this point, Xiang Xiaoyuan’s lowered her voice. “Lu Wanggui is busy with work. I didn’t expect him to be at home with me. I just want to find something to do for myself when he is not around.”

She wanted to be reasonable first before playing the emotional card. Xiang Xiaoyuan was not afraid that the butler would disagree. If he still did not agree, she had other ways to convince him!

The butler felt that what she said made sense. He thought for a moment and suggested, “Madam’s idea is very good, but you need the consent of the property management to open the shop. Oh right, Madam has not entered the group of property owners yet, right? I’ll push it to you…”

“Okay.”

She did not expect things to go so smoothly. Xiang Xiaoyuan successfully entered the owners’ group. With the help of the butler, the property management was quickly settled.

Two hours later, Xiang Xiaoyuan warmly greeted everyone in the group that was called “Repulse Bay Property Group”. She even tactfully expressed her intention to open a shop outside the residential area, gaining the support of the crowd.

Xiang Xiaoyuan knew that she was talented in social interaction. From the elderly to children, as long as she wanted to coax them, there was nothing she couldn’t do.

However, she suddenly noticed her nickname in the chat group — Repulse Bay 9th Building Xiang Xiaoyuan.

Everyone knew that the 9th building was occupied by Lu Wanggui… so everyone’s support was still because of the power that Lu Wanggui had!

At the same time, in another villa, a few women were sitting in the garden elegantly drinking afternoon tea and talking about the owners’ group.

“Have any of you seen Xiang Xiaoyuan in building nine?” Mrs. Zhang fiddled with the teacup as if she was asking casually.

“We met her once by chance. She’s more beautiful than a big star, but she’s a little depressed and doesn’t like to talk much. She’s timid.” Mrs. Xu shook her head. Her first impression of Xiang Xiaoyuan wasn’t good, but it wasn’t bad either. It could only be said that they weren’t the same kind of people.

“Can timid people hook up with Lu Wanggui?” Mrs. Wang sneered.

What kind of person was Lu Wanggui? He was an old fox in the business world. Their husbands had suffered a lot in his hands. Lu Wanggui and his ex-wife had been divorced for so many years. Many people wanted to introduce him to someone, but Lu Wanggui rejected them all. What did Lu Wanggui see in Xiang Xiaoyuan?

“Just watch. This Xiang Xiaoyuan… is not someone to be trifled with.” Mrs. Wang’s red nails gently slid across the phone screen. “Have you all heard about CEO Lu’s ex-wife? She has a bad temper and is not easy to get along with. Xiang Xiaoyuan is doing the opposite, which is why he has captured Lu Wanggui’s heart. I wonder how long it will take for her to reveal her fox tail….”
