Accompanied by the private butler, Xiao An, Zhou Wang took a tour around the house.
The two guest bedrooms were on the first floor, opposite each other to the west and east. Each had a walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom, with semi-intelligent home systems and large areas. Each guest room was also individually connected to a side courtyard.
Besides having bathtubs in the bathrooms, the two women were delighted to find that each side yard also had a private hot spring pool.
Without much hesitation, they each chose a guest room for themselves...
Although Zhou Wang said they could stay in the master bedroom if they wanted, the guest rooms were already beyond satisfying for them, with nothing to pick apart.
As they passed the living room, Zhou Wang discovered an interesting little gadget.
"Capsule coffee?" Zhou Wang was momentarily stunned as Xiao An explained it, casually picking up a capsule and asking, "What is this?"
"Mr. Zhou, it’s where coffee beans are first ground into coffee powder and then packed into aluminum capsules. This prevents issues like acidification and oxidation, maintaining the coffee’s freshness well," Xiao An explained with a smile.
Many brands had launched capsule coffee, with the pricier ones on the market like Starbucks, costing about four hundred yuan for eight boxes. The capsule coffee at the West Lake Four Seasons used an imported brand; Xiao An said that a small box of this was valued at over a thousand yuan, making it the king of capsule coffee.
Besides the living room and guest rooms, the first floor also had a private gym and indoor swimming pool. The pool wasn’t very big, only about ten meters long, but inexplicably had a cozy feel, enough to hold Xu Wenqian and Jiang Qingkui comfortably.
Moving to the second floor, most of the area belonged to the master bedroom. The office desk looked quite aged; Xiao An mentioned it had witnessed numerous contracts worth over a billion.
Passing through the office, they entered the master bedroom. The bedroom layout was quite standard, but the other areas were well-equipped, with even two walk-in closets and a balcony with an excellent view.
Living in such a place, the most comfortable aspect was probably opening the window to a view of gardens and lakes. As for the rest, compared to Zhou Wang’s own billionaire mansion, it still fell a bit short...
Pausing beside the railing on the second floor, Zhou Wang glanced at Xiao An, still clueless about how to trigger the reward.
After all, if it weren’t for the presence of the "question mark," Zhou Wang might not have even realized Xiao An had hidden rewards. Now, having to figure out how to unlock the rewards on his own was indeed a bit challenging for him...
From this situation, Zhou Wang speculated that there might be various rewards linked to many people he interacted with, but he just couldn’t perceive them.
He successfully unlocked only a small portion of them.
And when Zhou Wang suddenly stopped speaking and occasionally glanced at her, it made Xiao An nervous again.
Her appearance wasn’t bad, having encountered all kinds of guests through many years in the profession. Logically, she should have remained calm, but the main reason was that...
Zhou Wang stood out too much among them.
Don’t think that only men like fresh young girls; someone as boyishly charming as Zhou Wang had the same increased allure for a mature woman like her.
She felt she couldn’t refuse Zhou Wang at all, which only made her more uneasy.
"Xiao An, are you married?"
At this moment, Zhou Wang casually started chatting.
"I am, and I have a five-year-old daughter..."
Xiao An reflexively replied, then to her surprise, Zhou Wang’s eyes seemed to light up...
Could it be that... he got even more excited?
Zhou Wang was unaware of a woman’s power of imagination; he was just suddenly inspired.
Based on past experiences in triggering rewards, everything followed certain clues. In other words, social interactions were all about what one could offer another and what they could offer in return.
Judging from the color of the question mark, it shouldn’t have been a hard-to-find reward. Theoretically, the triggering method shouldn’t have been complicated either.
It just required understanding the other person better, and it would have been apparent, so Zhou Wang proceeded to inquire with a smile:
"May I ask, what does your husband do for a living?"
"My husband is in the construction materials business in Magic City."
Xiao An mused over it silently but still smiled and answered Zhou Wang.
"Oh, so you two live apart then?"
"Sort of, but there’s no choice because of work..."
Xiao An glanced at Zhou Wang and nodded helplessly, "Our daughter normally stays with her father. I only get to see her once every one or two weeks since the educational conditions are better in Magic City..."
The words "educational conditions" triggered something in Zhou Wang’s mind, and he smiled and said, "Your daughter is five? She should be starting elementary school soon, right?"
"Yes, she’ll be turning six soon."
Xiao An smiled but sighed, "Recently, her father and I have been troubled by this. We’ve asked many people and pulled a lot of strings, but we couldn’t get into the couple of elementary schools we wanted. School is about to start soon..."
After hearing Xiao An, Zhou Wang realized how to trigger the reward.
Just this morning, the system interaction progress was completed, granting him a 30% equity stake in the Magic City Pinghe Education Development Group Co., Ltd.
As the top-ranked private Magic City private school, it also had an elementary division.
Which meant, with just a few words, he could solve Xiao An’s problem...
However, Zhou Wang wouldn’t act so hastily. Since he expected to stay in Hang City for a while, he decided to wait and see.
