Beauty and the Beasts Chapter 1361
Advertisement
Bai Qingqing frowned, feeling conflicted. Her fingers that rested casually on the leather seat kept on scratching it. It was a little unbearable to watch.
Muir had been listening to such persuasions from these people for so long that he was getting sick of it. What he said earlier was meant for Bai Qingqing. After saying that, he ignored Liu Yi.
The car continued to drive into the city and they quickly entered the Splendid Villa.
The Splendid Villa, true to its name, was located in the center of prosperity, but there was tranquility amidst the clamor. Greening was applied to 70% of the area, and the styling and arrangements of the plants looked exquisite and unique.
The houses amongst the plants were all three-story villas that looked like small houses in the forest. What was more interesting was that there were also trees in these houses. The tree trunks would grow through the walls, stairs, or even roofs. One would be able to touch tree barks right from their home.
Even Bai Qingqing, who had been to the beastmen world, opened her mouth wide and let out a surprised gasp. She instantly fell in love with this place.
She rolled down the window and looked at the plants and scenery along the way. Even the air here felt a lot more refreshing than in the outside world. It was like a paradise.
"Oh my god!" Bai Qingqing was stunned. If she had seen such a design before she went to the beastmen world, she'd definitely build such a house there. It was too beautiful.
"We've arrived." Liu Yi smiled. The car slowly stopped in front of the villa Bai Qingqing was looking at in a daze.
This villa had a small attic that had a tree passing through its roof. The crown of this big tree was like a big umbrella, covering over the villa. Sparse light rays passed through the tree crown and scattered down on the rooftop and in the garden. It was cooling but still bright.

This design was very daring. Bai Qingqing was worried that rain would leak through the roof just from looking at it. Thankfully, the spot where the tree passed through wasn't where the master bedroom was located. It should be a leisure area.
"This is the house meant for Muir to stay in? Isn't it too good?" Bai Qingqing stood from the edge of the garden, raising her head and looking at the villa, her eyes filled with disbelief. "How long can he stay here? It'll be taken back if he doesn't participate in the next Olympics, right?"
Liu Yi warmly asked them to enter, smiling as he explained, "This is a special benefit the government gave to Muir. The property will be transferred to his name right away. It's his private property."
Bai Qingqing gasped, quietly taking out her handphone and checking the property price in Splendid Villa on the Internet. She then gasped again.
The starting price was ten million yuan!
If a villa was given to an ordinary family, if the family wasn't extravagant in their spending, it'd take them a few generations before they spent everything.
Using one line to describe Bai Qingqing's current mood: My god!
Wasn't the benefit of an Olympic champion too good? Just a special benefit turned out to be a villa. It was said that getting one medal would entitle one to a cash reward of several hundred thousand yuan. Bai Qingqing thought that it was enough, but didn't expect that a special benefit would end up being even better than the cash reward.
Was this a benefit that all gold medalists had? Or was it given only to Muir?
If she had known, she'd have become an athlete when she was young.
With Bai Qingqing satisfied, Muir felt satisfied as well. Liu Yi saw this and heaved a sigh of relief inside.

They couldn't get through to Muir no matter what they said. Only the act of bringing him back to the country could be used to coax him. With this young girlfriend now, it should be a lot easier to get him to do things in the future.
After leaving the car, the air they breathed felt even cleaner and more refreshing. It was as if they were situated amongst oxygen.
They walked into the villa and saw a few men and ladies dressed in office wear waiting inside. When these people saw them coming over, they immediately stood up to welcome and greet them.
Bai Qingqing stood quietly by Muir's side. As expected, they were handling the property rights. Very soon, a red booklet was handed to Muir. It was the title deed.
From this moment onward, Muir was this villa's owner. Bai Qingqing still found it a little surreal.

The Emperor's Concubine
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The heroine is good and the villainess is evil. That was the absolute truth. That rule was undeniable as well as the fact that only the heroine would receive true love and her happy ending. Likewise, the malicious villainess would always suffer and leave the stage to clear the path for the perfect heroine in the end. So, for Blanche it felt like her world came crashing around her when she remembered the truth about her life. As the villainess in the typical romance novel “To Be Empress” she was fated to be condemned and abandoned by her lover. No matter how devoted she was to Theodore Estien, the emperor of Artias, she would only be the bratty concubine that would obstruct the heroine, who happened to be Theodore's lawful wife and the empress. In the end, the villainess would be deserted and executed. It was destined to happen like this, and yet she couldn't give up. She had to change the future. Preventing the romance between the main characters would get her killed. Much like trying to steer away from the enemies' intrigues, in which she was already caught up, would. But neither the heroine nor the emperor's political rivals would change the fact that Blanche loved the man that was supposed to be the heroine's. And no matter what happened she would always stay by her lover's side. So she wouldn't just follow the book's storyline and let her own doom arrive. Blanche would survive while trying to suppress all of the selfish desires that had made her the villainess. But was she truly fine with that? Did she not desire more than just surviving? Did she even have the right? Could the villainess ask for a happy end? Was she too brazen if she just wanted to stay with the man she loved and receive his affection? And wasn't there a bit more to this novel than she remembered? She didn't know and in the end that mattered little when the world around her changed with each day as more and more questions about the future and the past arose. "The Emperor's Concubine" will be updated thrice a week (usually on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) *The Profanity tag was added due to the characters' occasional swearing, which should not happen too often.
