Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

"Oh? How did you put it?" Eric was not only not dissatisfied but rather curious.

"I said you are the legitimate grandson of the Medicine King Sect's Eric Yun. Because we fell in love, you stole a large amount of Nourishing Essence Pills from Eric Yun and gave them to me, which greatly increased my strength, leading to a qualitative change..."

"That's a good excuse. I don't mind!" Eric nodded. "Since you've already attributed it to me, why did you come to Shanghai? ...Is it because of the enthusiasm of the Tan family?"

Tan Ailing shook her head, with a hint of bitterness. "Ever since they knew you could get Nourishing Essence Pills, my grandfather and the others have been subtly hinting at me to ask you for some..."

Eric casually suggested, "In that case, let's find a time to visit the Medicine King Sect and ask Eric Yun for some..."

"It's not that simple!" Tan Ailing smiled wryly. "Do you know what Nourishing Essence Pills are?"

"From your tone, I gather it's a miraculous pill that increases one's strength?"

"Yes. The Nourishing Essence Pill is a miraculous pill that can increase one's strength by more than ten years! It's difficult to refine, and the materials needed are extremely hard to obtain. Currently, the market price for a Nourishing Essence Pill is over ten million RMB, and they are often in short supply..."

Tan Ailing glanced at Eric before continuing, "Moreover, Eric Yun is not your real grandfather. Even if he had Nourishing Essence Pills, we can't just go ask him for some..."

Eric nodded in understanding and then smiled, asking, "So, you came to Shanghai just because of this?"

"Yes," Tan Ailing said helplessly. "I was fed up with my family, so I made up an excuse that Feiyan wanted to visit home and hurriedly came to Shanghai..."

"Is this Tang's father's villa?" Eric looked around at the luxurious furnishings, a little puzzled.

"My dad didn't take bribes, how could he afford such an expensive villa?" Tang Feiyan explained with a smile. "This is one of Tan's properties in Shanghai, specially used for the head of the family and the Priests to stay in! This time, because of Ailing's status as a pre-heaven expert, the head of the Tan family specially allocated it for our use!"

"A residence specifically for the Tan family leadership?"

Tan Ailing, who understood Eric's thoughts, smiled lightly and said, "Originally, there were more than a dozen servants here, but Feiyan and I don't like being waited on, so we gave them a long vacation!"

Eric pointed to the door and asked, "Did you meet those guys outside after you moved in?"

"They live in a villa by the lake nearby. Ailing and I met them while taking a walk. At that time, he was so engrossed in looking at Ailing that he bumped into a lamppost. The next day, he bought tens of thousands of roses and surrounded our villa, kneeling to loudly recite love poems..." Tang Feiyan couldn't help but laugh.

Tan Ailing gave her a white look and said helplessly, "That Ye Simin is the third son of the Ye family, a commercial aristocrat in Shanghai. Their family is an important business partner of our Tan family. I couldn't directly deal with him, so I had to avoid him..."

"Eric..." Tang Feiyan's expression was like a pet dog about to ask its owner for a bone.

"What's up?"

"We haven't been out these past few days because of that guy. If it weren't for the sufficient food in the freezer, you probably wouldn't have seen us..."

Seeing Tang Feiyan's pitiful appearance, Eric chuckled twice and said, "Do you want to go out and play?"

"Yeah..." Tang Feiyan nodded vigorously.

"Eric, you just got back. Don't you need to rest?" Tan Ailing seemed to be a bit more caring than Tang Feiyan.

"It's fine." Eric smiled at her and said, "Actually, I arrived in Shanghai three days ago, but I've been busy with things, so I didn't contact you in time!"

Tan Ailing didn't ask what it was. She knew that what she needed to know, her Eric would naturally not hide from her.

Tang Feiyan, on the other hand, didn't think so much, cheered, and was about to go get the car keys.

"Wait a minute..." Eric stopped her with a flash of inspiration in his mind. "I'll prepare the car for you..."

Outside the villa.

"Lord Simin, it's getting late. It seems that Miss Tan won't be coming out today. Shall we go back?" a black-clad man with sunglasses walked up to Ye Simin and said.

"No!" Ye Simin stared at the villa affectionately and said firmly, "To show Miss Tan my sincerity, I will wait here until the lights go out in the villa..."

The black-clad man sighed silently and returned to the group of bodyguards with a helpless expression.

"Boss, what should we do?"

"What else can we do? It looks like we'll have to wait here until the lights go out at the villa before we can go back..."

"Ah... Does that mean ordering takeout again?"

"If we don't order takeout, what will we eat..."

"Um... Boss, isn't it a bit too much for Lord Simin to do this? Shouldn't we tell the Lord about it?"

"Well... We should report to the Lord! Lord Simin has been standing here for two consecutive days until midnight. His health is not very good, and if something happens, we can't afford the responsibility..."

"Ah... If we tell others that the high-level guards of the Ye family have been eating takeout for three days, I'm afraid the entire Shanghai security industry won't believe it..."

Just as the black-clad men sighed, three cars drove towards the villa.

Although they thought that the security forces at Ziyuan would not allow anyone suspicious to enter, the black-clad men still professionally took countermeasures and heavily guarded Ye Simin.

As the convoy approached, the black-clad men couldn't help but whisper.

"My god, isn't the middle car a Bentley Mulliner 728? Am I seeing things..."

"What's wrong? Why are you so surprised..."

"Boss, don't you know how expensive that Bentley Mulliner 728 is?"

"Come on... Even if it's more expensive, can it compare to our Lord's Rolls Royce?"

"Lord's Rolls Royce costs only over eight million. This Bentley Mulliner 728 costs over eleven million..."

"Uh... Who are these people? Could they be the leaders of those two families..."

As the black-clad men whispered, the convoy stopped, and four solemn-looking men got out of the first and last Mercedes-Benz cars in succession.

Seeing nearly ten people outside the villa, the four men couldn't help but look cold, and their fierce momentum immediately surged out of their burly bodies.

The black-clad men, who were only former special forces, were no match for pre-heaven experts in terms of momentum. They immediately stepped back, their backs soaked in cold sweat.

Such powerful individuals, perhaps comparable to the top experts of the Central Southern Sea Guard, could have such great power to have such high-level experts as personal bodyguards.

In the black-clad men's silent speculation, the door of the Bentley finally opened.

To their surprise, it wasn't the middle door that opened, but the front passenger door.

A foreign handsome man in his thirties walked out, and from his attire and demeanor, he could be called a "nobleman"!

Such a person wasn't even the protagonist?

The curiosity of the black-clad men was piqued.

Five people got off the three cars respectively and walked side by side towards the villa, their wild and imposing manner causing the black-clad men to stagger back.

At this moment, Ye Simin was completely unaware. All his thoughts were focused on the villa, trying to see his beloved woman through the thick walls.

Suddenly, he was violently bumped into, and the happy scene he had just imagined shattered in his mind.

Angry, the usually gentle Ye Simin turned around and shouted, "What are you doing!"

Before he could finish his accusation, he saw the five imposing figures five or six meters away, and his subordinates, who were forced over.
