Chapter 1825: Chapter 674: Encounter with an Italian Beauty!

Yan Ning at this moment naturally remarked, "Boss Zhang, I must say, your taste is impeccable. The location of this villa as well as the renovation of this house are far superior to mine."

"I don’t care, even though I live nearby, I want to have a room here too."

Zhang Jingdong chuckled mischievously, "Of course, I was worried you wouldn’t want one!"

After taking a sip of wine, Zhang Jingdong continued, "You all can have rooms here, but since each room has a different position, I’ve decided to hold a competition. The final ranking will determine your priority in choosing a room. How does that sound, any issues?"

Yan Ning and the others exchanged glances and all nodded.

"Sounds good!"

"No problem!"

Seeing everyone agree, Zhang Jingdong went on, "This competition has two events: the first is vocal skills, the second is squat thrusts."

"The first event focuses on techniques, with each person getting 10 minutes, and I’ll be the one scoring you at the end."

"The second event measures quantity; the more you do, the higher the score."

"The scores from both events combined will be your total score."

"Alright, let’s hurry up. Feel free to organize yourselves, and let the competition officially begin!"

Liang Feng stepped up to go first.

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully completing teaching in a special environment, earning a reward of 10 million Huaxia yuan!"

Over an hour later, the first single event concluded, and Shu Ran temporarily ranked first.

Zhang Jingdong then lay on the nearby sofa, "Now, let’s start the second event!"

Once again, Liang Feng was the first to step up.

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully completing teaching in a special environment, earning a reward of 20 million Huaxia yuan!"

About three hours later, the results for this round were finally out.

Surprisingly, Aisha claimed first place in this event, having completed 732 squat thrusts—40 more than Liang Feng, who came second.

Adding up the scores from both events, Aisha took first place overall.

Liang Feng, with a face full of amazement, said to Aisha, "Did you use to be in the military?"

Aisha shook her head, "No."

"Then why is your physical ability so impressive?"

Aisha paused, and replied, "Maybe because we lived in the wild as children, often having to fight wild animals."

Liang Feng suddenly understood, "No wonder... alright, I concede to you!"

Subsequently, the nine of them chose their rooms in order.

However, tonight they all stayed with Zhang Jingdong in the master bedroom located on the top floor.

Luckily, Zhang Jingdong had been farsighted enough to prepare a super king-size bed, 10 meters long and 8 meters wide, so it was no problem for the ten of them to sleep on it, and they could even hold lessons.

...

Over the next two days, Zhang Jingdong handled business at the company during the day and had hosted primitive parties with Yan Ning and the others at the villa in the evening, feeling content and fulfilled.

On the third day, after bidding them farewell, he boarded a plane to Europe.

Before leaving, he hadn’t called He Jieyu, and his destination wasn’t Switzerland, but Milan, Italy.

Just after boarding, the system provided him with search results: surprisingly, there were two target people on this flight.

"Target person 1: Sovia, appearance 91 points, figure 93 points, temperament 92 points, overall score 92 points."

"Target person 2: Lin Xiangwan, appearance 92 points, figure 90 points, temperament 94 points, overall score 92 points."

Lin Xiangwan was in first class, but she was part of a group of four, including two men and two women.

However, he could tell that one of the men was pursuing her, but she wasn’t together with him yet.

Sophia, on the other hand, was in business class; she was a typical Western beauty.

Seeing no chance to strike up a conversation with them, Zhang Jingdong decided to start reading.

Before boarding the plane, he had bought two books at the airport bookstore: one was "Journey to the West," and the other was "The Count of Monte Cristo."

He first opened "The Count of Monte Cristo," but found he couldn’t get into it after less than ten minutes, so he switched to "Journey to the West" and quickly became engrossed.

Wow, sure enough, the classic works of our ancestors are still the best!

Plus, all these years he had only seen comic books and TV dramas of "Journey to the West," and was reading Wu Cheng’en’s novel version for the first time, realizing it’s far more profound than the TV series!

At 6 PM, he reluctantly emerged from the world of Journey to the West and turned to look at the sunset outside for a moment.

Then maybe because the sunset was too beautiful, he suddenly thought of the two gorgeous women on the plane and stood up, hoping to see if there was an opportunity to strike up a conversation while going to the restroom.

Passing by Lin Xiangwan, Zhang Jingdong noticed she was watching the sunset with her best friend, so he didn’t disturb them and headed straight to the restroom.

After returning from the restroom, he didn’t head back to first class but went to business class instead.

Sophia was currently reading a magazine.

Seeing the seat opposite her was empty, Zhang Jingdong immediately headed there and took a seat.

Sophia turned to look at him at this moment.

Using Italian, Zhang Jingdong promptly said to her, "Hello."

Sophia was clearly surprised that this Huaxia man could speak Italian, as it is considered a minor language.

She had been in Huaxia intermittently for nearly three years and had never met a Huaxia person who spoke Italian.

So she gave a sweet smile, "Hello."

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully getting a response from the target person, earning a reward of 10,000 Huaxia yuan."

Seeing her warmth, Zhang Jingdong immediately felt a sudden impulse, "I didn’t expect you to actually be Italian."

Sophia nodded, "You’re the first Huaxia person I’ve met who speaks Italian."

"Really, can you speak Huaxia language then?"
