The villagers, many of whom rarely visited the county town, found the atmosphere on the bus quite lively.
Yang Zhi sat by the window, appearing somewhat uneasy.
He watched the scenery blur past, and indeed, the bus arrived near the Emperor Garden residential area.
"No way..." Yang Zhi muttered to himself.
If Wu Tian's house was really around here, wouldn't everything he'd said about Wu Tian previously be a complete embarrassment to himself?
As Yang Zhi's anxious feelings grew, the bus came to a stop.
Yang Zhi's daze began to lift. He looked out the window again and was instantly stunned.
The Emperor Garden was directly opposite him, separated by a wide main road.
So this was...
Yang Zhi considered his surroundings and suddenly, something in his mind seemed to explode!
Impossible!
This was absolutely impossible!
He roared internally!
Opposite the Emperor Garden, there was only one villa complex, and it was the best villa complex in the county town!
How could Wu Tian's house possibly be here?
He followed everyone off the bus and, as expected, they were standing right at the entrance of the villa complex!
Most of the villagers had spent their lives farming and had never seen such a high-end residential area.
A place like this was just like the wealthy districts in television dramas, clean and grand, making it obvious that the houses within were expensive.
For a moment, the villagers were discussing it enthusiastically.
Wang Damao couldn't help but exclaim, "When did this kid buy a villa..."
Wu Tian was already waiting at the entrance of the complex.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, he walked over with a smile and said, "Everyone's here, right? No one's missing?"
Wang Damao smiled and said, "I've already counted everyone, don't worry, they're all here!"
Yang Zhi stepped forward, his face filled with disbelief, and asked, "Wu Tian, did you bring us to the wrong place?"
"This is a villa district, why did you bring us to a place like this?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "What's wrong with it being a villa district? My house is right here, am I supposed to take you somewhere else?"
Yang Zhi could hardly believe his ears.
He exclaimed in shock, "You said you bought a house here?"
"How is that possible! If you're going to lie, at least make it believable!"
"Do you know what this place is? Only the wealthiest people in the entire county town can afford to live here, and the cheapest house here costs over ten million!"
"You say you bought a house here, aren't you talking nonsense?"
Hearing Yang Zhi's words, the villagers were so scared their voices trembled.
"Over ten million? Oh my god, what kind of place is this? Even the emperor's residence wouldn't be like this!"
"Wu Tian, don't scare me!"
"How could you afford such an expensive house?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "What's the matter? I've already brought you here, and you still don't believe me?"
"What's wrong with a house worth over ten million? If you can't afford it, does that mean I can't?"
Although Wu Tian's tone was light, it carried a hint of mockery that greatly displeased Yang Zhi.
He frowned and said, "Wu Tian, I suspect you're deliberately putting on a show to trick us!"
"I know you well enough, you're a village doctor with a monthly salary of three thousand. Even if you saved for your entire life, you wouldn't be able to buy a toilet here!"
"If you think bringing us to this place is enough, then I'm sorry, you're mistaken. I won't acknowledge it!"
"You say you bought a house here? Fine, if you have the guts, take us inside to see it!"
"I want to see what right you have to bring us into this complex!"
Wu Tian didn't bother with any more wasted words. He directly waved to the gatekeeper and said, "Brother Security, please open the gate!"
Then, to Yang Zhi's almost stunned gaze, the complex's gate slowly opened...
Yang Zhi's expression looked worse than if he had eaten something from a latrine.
Since this complex was a gathering place for the wealthy, its security was undoubtedly the best.
If one was not an owner of the complex, it would not be easy to get in.
And for so many of them to enter, it should have been an impossible feat.
Yet, Wu Tian had the security guard open the gate with just a word. Didn't this prove that Wu Tian was indeed an owner here?
Wu Tian looked at Yang Zhi's expression and couldn't help but smile, "The gate is open now, do you have anything else to say?"
"I don't believe it!" Yang Zhi gritted his teeth and said, "What does this prove? If I bribed the security guard, I could get in too!"
"The most important thing is the house, where is the house! Without a house, all your tricks are useless!"
Wu Tian shook his head. This Yang Zhi was really stubborn. It seemed he wouldn't believe it until he saw it with his own eyes.
So Wu Tian stepped aside and smiled slightly, saying, "Then please, everyone, come in."
Yang Zhi believed that Wu Tian must have bribed the security guard, which was why the gate was opened.
He truly refused to believe it today.
He thought that if so many people entered, the security guard would surely stop them.
So he loudly called out, "Fellow villagers, since Wu Tian has said so, let's go in!"
With that, he led the way into the complex.
He had been prepared to be stopped, but to his surprise, the security guard showed no intention of doing so and instead greeted them with a smile.
Even after all the villagers had entered, completely blocking the gate, the security guard still hadn't said a word.
"What is going on here..."
Yang Zhi couldn't believe it. "Even if Wu Tian is an owner here, the security guard wouldn't let so many people in..."
While Yang Zhi was still in a daze, Wu Tian had already led everyone to his villa.
"Everyone, this is the house I bought."
Hiss—
A wave of exclamations erupted from the crowd.
They all looked at the house with shocked eyes, unable to believe what they were seeing.
It was a palatial villa, situated in the very center of the complex. It stood three stories tall, looking like the king of all villas.
Yang Zhi's eyes were about to pop out.
He exclaimed in disbelief, "This is a core villa? How is that possible?"
The so-called core villa was the best villa in the complex, usually costing three to four times more than other villas.
Those who could live in this villa were considered the most prestigious residents in the complex, and many owners would want to befriend them.
Wu Tian smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to know the concept of a core villa. That's right, I bought the core villa."
