Yuki, staring at her phone screen, says in a slightly angry tone,
"Li still hasn't shown up…"
Suddenly, the roaring sound of a powerful engine reaches her ears.
She looks to the side in surprise, her eyes widening as she says,
"A Pagani… here!?"
In her mind, she thinks,
"Does some multi-billionaire study at this university?"
But her shock intensifies when the Pagani stops right in front of her.
For a moment, she's confused,
"Why did this car stop in front of me?"
Suddenly, the tinted window of the car slowly rolls down.
Yuki's heart skips a beat.
In her mind, she says,
"Is he trying to hit on me!?"
But the next moment, a smiling face appears from behind the window Li Chan.
He smiles lightly and says,
"Yuki, come on. It's time to go."
Yuki is utterly shocked for a moment. Her face freezes as if it's gone cold.
In her mind, she thinks,
"Dayna told me yesterday that Li Chan was a poor guy…"
Seeing her reaction, Li Chan waves his hand lightly in front of her face,
"Hey… come on."
Yuki snaps out of it, then opens the other door of the car, sits inside, and says,
"Let's go…"
Li Chan, with a slight smile, sets the location on the car's touchscreen,
and without saying a word, drives off in the Pagani.
Some time later…
The Pagani stops in front of an ultra-modern high-rise building.
Yuki, looking at the building, says in surprise,
"Didn't you come to buy a normal house?"
Li Chan, suppressing a chuckle, says,
"No… I'm here to buy a villa."
Yuki, slightly shocked again, says,
"Wait… are you serious?"
Li Chan, without saying anything, starts walking into the building,
"Come on, you too."
Yuki hesitates for a few seconds, confused,
but then follows him without asking questions.
As soon as they enter, Li Chan looks at a man who was already waiting for him.
The man had white hair, round glasses, and was wearing a perfectly pressed black suit.
The man approaches Li Chan and says in a respectful tone,
"Hello, Young Master.
I'm Senji. Brother Kuro already gave me your call."
Li Chan, smiling slightly, says,
"Good. I want a villa."
Senji nods immediately and says,
"Please, this way…"
He leads them toward a showroom-like conference room.
Yuki silently follows behind.
As they enter the room, there are 3D models of luxury villas displayed on a large table.
Senji calls Li Chan over to the models,
"Young Master, please look… these are all top-tier pieces in the luxurious segment."
Yuki, standing behind, has a shocked expression.
Sweat drips from her forehead.
In her mind, she says,
"Why is this company's owner calling Li 'Young Master'!?"
Then she notices that Li Chan is calmly observing the models with steady eyes.
Li Chan looks at the models for a while,
then turns to Senji and says,
"Brother… you've disappointed me.
Not a single villa here is to my liking."
In his mind, he says,
"I want a grand mansion… something magnificent, a royal palace."
Senji gets a bit nervous.
In his mind, he thinks,
"No… I have to strengthen my relationship with Young Master. I can't afford to bargain."
Then, with a calm smile, he says,
"Please, Young Master, follow me…"
Senji takes them to the 6th floor.
As they step out of the elevator, he stops in front of a special locked room.
Pausing at the door, Senji gives Li Chan a look as if to say,
"Here it is…"
Li Chan hesitates slightly before opening the door…
And…
His eyes fall on a grand, royal model a castle-like villa.
The model on the table looks no less than a fantasy palace.
Senji, entering the room, says,
"This is Queens Pavilion… our company's most luxurious project."
Then, explaining further, he says,
"This isn't just one villa, but nine different villas… each numbered.
Each has its own pools, gardens, playgrounds… and complete privacy."
Li Chan looks impressed but remains calm.
Seeing his reaction, Senji asks with a light smile,
"Sir, do you like it?"
Li Chan, smiling, says,
"Yes. What's the price?"
Senji pauses for a moment.
In his mind, he says,
"I can't miss this opportunity… I have to make Young Master happy."
Hesitating slightly, he says,
"Young Master… I'll give you this villa for 500 million yen."
Yuki, standing behind, is still in shock from everything that's happened.
Her face has gone pale, and her eyes hold only one question:
"Is this some kind of joke?"
Then her gaze falls on Li Chan,
who calmly pulls out a sleek black card from his pocket and looks at Senji,
"Senji, payment machine…"
Senji, smiling immediately, claps his hands lightly.
In an instant, a girl in a pink dress appears—elegant and poised, holding a portable swipe machine.
Li Chan looks at her, swipes his black card without saying a word.
The machine beeps, and the screen flashes:
"¥500,000,000 Transaction Successful"
Seeing this, Yuki's eyes widen in shock.
She thinks in a daze:
"I thought he was poor… but no. No! Then who is he?"
Her gaze slowly shifts to Li Chan's hands toward his black card.
She strains her eyes to look… and then says in a faint voice:
"That card…"
Her lips move slightly, but the sentence remains incomplete.
Just then, Senji steps forward and says in a polite tone,
"Young Master, would you like to see your villa?"
Li Chan nods in agreement.
At that moment, the same girl in the pink dress brings some official documents.
Senji says respectfully,
"Young Master, please sign these papers."
Li Chan signs the documents without wasting time and says,
"Alright, let's go."
Senji hands him a shining golden key,
"I hope you like this home."
Li Chan, with a slight smile, takes Yuki's hand,
gently pulling her and saying,
"Come on, Yuki… let's see the house."
Yuki, slightly flustered, says,
"Li Chan… slow down…"
Meanwhile…
In a dark room-like place.
A boy with black hair and black sunglasses is talking on the phone.
His voice is heavy with anger:
"Hey… that girl is still alive."
From the other side of the phone, a voice responds:
"Young Master Izumi, we had already taken care of her…"
Izumi's face turns red with rage.
In an angry tone, he says:
"I don't care.
Do whatever it takes… finish her!"
The other side responds immediately:
"Alright, Young Master."
Izumi cuts the call.
Then, his lowered face rises,
a madness gleaming in his eyes.
From his lips, he says:
"Yuki… my dear sister…
who will save you now?"
After a pause, he adds:
"No matter who it is, if they come in my way… they'll be finished."
His face then twists into a sinister smile…
and, raising his head, he starts laughing loudly,
"Hahahahahaha!"
like a villain beginning his game.
At the same time…
Li Chan stops his Pagani in front of Queens Pavilion.
Looking out the window with a slight laugh, he says:
"Is this a house… or some royal mansion?
All of this… is this a dream!?"
