Chapter 282: Chapter 162: Luckily, I Picked This Up for Free_3

"Which type of mental illness does your mom have? Has she been diagnosed?"

During the wait, Zhou Wang asked softly.

"It was initially depression, but later she developed personality disorders and cognitive impairments. The doctor said her memory has deteriorated significantly... Fortunately, Mom rarely has manic episodes, so my aunt can take care of her at home."

Su Yajing spoke softly while helping Su Qiang trim her nails, "Most of the time, she just sits quietly, reading books or magazines or something..."

Zhou Wang glanced at the side cabinet in the bedroom, which indeed held many books and magazines, along with some old newspapers. Of course, none of the content was particularly deep.

Most of them were like the one Su Qiang was holding, fashion magazines with lots of illustrations...

However, Zhou Wang vaguely understood why Su Yajing had always had pretty good taste; it seemed she had been influenced by this environment.

Just then, Su Qiang suddenly put down the magazine in her hand, her bright eyes looking at Su Yajing, followed by an expression of surprise on her face.

"Ah, Ranran, you’ve come home!"

Saying this, Su Qiang directly hugged Su Yajing and scrutinized her hand from all angles, continually asking, "Are you adapting to school, getting along with your classmates, and isn’t Ming City beautiful..."

Listening to Su Mom’s questions, Zhou Wang found them quite normal, although it seemed as if she hadn’t seen her daughter in a long time...

"My mom thinks I’ve just gone to college..."

Su Yajing seemed quite accustomed to it as she responded to Su Qiang and whispered to Zhou Wang.

At this moment, Su Qiang also noticed Zhou Wang.

After a moment of surprise, she suddenly hid behind Su Yajing, shyly poking her head out, "Ranran, who is this handsome guy?"

"Mom, this is my boyfriend, Zhou Wang!"

"Oh, what? You brought a handsome guy home, and he’s not for me..."

Su Qiang muttered while no longer hiding. After carefully examining Zhou Wang, she nodded with satisfaction and smiled, "Very good, just as handsome as your father."

"Although I’ve never met Dad, I think Dad can’t be this handsome..."

"Rubbish, your mom’s boyfriend would definitely be handsomer than your boyfriend!"

"Impossible, my boyfriend is definitely more handsome!"

"Are you questioning your mother’s taste?"

Seeing this mother and daughter argue like bickering friends, Zhou Wang smiled slightly. So this was the mode of interaction between Su Qiang and Su Yajing when Su Qiang was lucid...

It was quite interesting.

As it seemed Su Qiang was getting a little upset, Zhou Wang interrupted in time, "Auntie, I believe your boyfriend is handsomer than me."

"Did you hear that, Ranran? Even your boyfriend admitted it!"

Su Qiang beamed with delight.

Of course, Su Yajing wasn’t actually arguing with Su Qiang. Hearing this, she pretended to be helpless and said, "Alright, alright, Dad is the handsomest!"

But when she said this, Su Yajing chuckled and looked at Zhou Wang, her voice turned sweet.

Zhou Wang got her point and couldn’t help but cough lightly to remind her to be more serious.

"Ranran, now that you have a boyfriend, you need to be more sensible."

Su Qiang pinched Su Yajing’s cheek, suddenly becoming serious, "Remember what I’ve taught you? We girls might not be good at everything, but we must master a skill..."

"Mom, I know, a woman who acts coy lives the best life!"

Su Yajing giggled and hugged Su Qiang, "Brother treats me very well, so don’t worry!"

"Right, I have a hidden Van Cleef & Arpels pendant, it’s so beautiful. Now that you’re in love, I’ll generously give it to you!"

As Su Qiang spoke, she got off the bed and started searching. However, she looked puzzled because she couldn’t find it after a long time.

"The few luxury items Mom had left were sold by my aunt for paying her medical bills... but Mom doesn’t remember."

Su Yajing didn’t stop Su Qiang, she just whispered from the side.

Zhou Wang nodded, feeling a bit emotional.

In fact, thinking from another angle, Su Qiang’s amnesia-related mental illness could be a form of self-protection by the brain. Considering how she was mentally traumatized, one could only imagine what kind of suffering she had gone through...

...

After staying in the room for about twenty minutes and waiting for Su Qiang to fall into her quiet self-segregation, Zhou Wang helped Su Yajing feed Su Qiang her medicine. When Su Qiang fell asleep, they both left the room.

As the evening breeze blew, and Su Yajing looked at Zhou Wang with a relieved smile, Zhou Wang heard a system prompt.

Ding!

[Host has completed Su Yajing’s wish, random reward granted]

[Host received: Seras’s property blind box]

[Seras’s property blind box: After opening, it will randomly obtain a property in the current city x1]

[Note: Since it was stolen by "Liberator" Seras with closed eyes, the property’s value is uncontrollable]

...

Zhou Wang was familiar with property blind boxes, as he had received one in the second round.

After reading the description, Zhou Wang’s first thought was to save this property blind box until visiting a first-tier city, as properties are more expensive in larger cities.

But after seeing the system’s "note," Zhou Wang dismissed the idea.

Assuming the value of the property is entirely random, it would be better to open it now.

The logic was simple, at that moment, Zhou Wang still carried the [Divine Fortune Halo]. With the halo’s blessing, this property blind box might surprise him.

In less than two days, the halo would expire, and it would be too late for Zhou Wang to visit a major city...

Moreover, there will always be new rewards available, so there’s no need to hesitate.

Thinking this way, Zhou Wang tightened his hold on Su Yajing’s slim waist and mentally chose "open."

["Seras’s property blind box" opening]

Ding!

[Successfully locked on to a suitable property, interacting with reality...]

[Reality interaction successful]

[The host obtained the property rights of "55 Jishan Alley, Xinyi Street, Li City Ancient City"]

[Property details can be expanded ∇]

[The host must bring an identification card to the corresponding location to receive the property within 12 hours]

...

After reading this, Zhou Wang was momentarily stunned, as from just an address, he couldn’t discern any particular traits of this property.

Fortunately, the system had already uploaded the detailed information, Zhou Wang opened it to take a look.

A moment later, Zhou Wang’s eyes showed surprise.

This "55 Jishan Alley" was formerly a renowned Siheyuan-style hotel building in Li City.

Due to the landlord’s huge unpaid debt, the property entered judicial auction proceedings and, due to the high price, remained unsold.

The Siheyuan is located between the bustling Big Water Wheel and Four Square Street in the Ancient City, just steps away from various photo spots popular with young women, situated in a quiet core area amidst the bustle.

The entire hotel consists of three differently styled courtyards, with the central courtyard dating back over eighty years, a typical Sanfang Yizhaobi courtyard-style building, and it is one of the historical residences protected in the ancient city.

Glancing over the entire ancient city, this is definitely among the top-rated properties, in fact, even before being auctioned, it was run by the landlord as a high-end homestay.

Presumably due to the auction, this house could legally be owned by an outsider like Zhou Wang.

And looking at the price, Zhou Wang understood why the auction had been going on for a few days without anyone eagerly taking it...

This Siheyuan with a total built area of 680 square meters had an auction starting price of as high as 39.6 million!

Converted, it’s close to 60,000 per square meter on average, although considering the second floor, its actual usable area exceeds a thousand square meters, the price is still extravagant.

This certainly isn’t the heyday of Li City...

Here, in a corner of Yunan Province, this isn’t Magic City or Beidou, a property at 50 to 60 thousand per square meter is akin to a sky-high price.

To be fair, the [Divine Fortune Halo] was still quite powerful, it wouldn’t be easy to draw a property worth 40 million in a first-tier city...

After reviewing the general information, Zhou Wang, while surprised, was also a bit shocked by the price.

He couldn’t help but smack his lips, "Luckily, I got it for free."
