Tranxending Vision - Chapter 508

Chapter 508: 508

Snow came falling down in the evening and the world was blanked in silver . The pine trees by the side of the roads had icicles hanging off them, and they seemed to glow under the city lights; they were beautiful .

A Chevrolet Suburban zoomed through the city and came to a mountain . Halfway up the side of this mountain was a wealthy neighbourhood called Royal Garden . This little neighbourhood comprised of classic Spanish villas, with an atmospheric style . The villas clung onto the mountainside like a little village in Spain, making for quite a mesmerising sight .

This Royal Garden project was one of the many real estate projects Vientaine Group had under its brand, and Shentu Tianyin was the owner here . Those who could afford a place here were extremely wealthy, and even those with a net worth of tens of millions were considered poor .

Royal Garden had just completed the acceptance process, and Shentu Tianyin said she had chosen a villa here for Xia Lei and herself, a new home for their marriage . Xia Lei came driven over after receiving her call .

Prince Khalifa and his two assistants from the UAE, Ali Khan and Zamaha, had come with Xia Lei too .

The dispute between Desert Guardian and Hanwu Weapons had been resolved quite perfectly, but Prince Khalifa’s trip to China was not over . He had sent in a request to purchase 20,000 Gust assault rifles and 200 XL sniper rifles to the Equipment Department, and this request was now under review . Prince Khalifa would return to the UAE when he had this order confirmed .

This request was just a formality . China purchased oil from the UAE, and the UAE purchased weapons from China . The two countries had always traded with each other, and had good relations . Xia Lei had the title of ‘Father of Rifles’ too, and this meant that there would be no problems with this purchase order .

Xia Lei was taking Prince Khalifa to his and Shentu Tianyin’s new home to be his guest, and this was also a show of his respect and goodwill towards Prince Khalifa . It was good to have friends from the Middle East .

Seeing the Spanish villas on either side of the road, and the cityscape of Jingdu in the distance, Prince Khalifa sighed . “My friend, China has developed so quickly these past few years . I would not have believed the reports about the rise of China if I had not seen it myself . ”

Xia Lei laughed . “Prince Khalifa, China has a history of 5,000 years, and it was the greatest empire in the world . This is now the world’s second largest market . There are countless business opportunities to be found here . China would be a good choice if you’d like to invest . ”

“This trip to China has changed my perception of it . Hm, what you say is logical . It looks like I’ll be moving my investment focus from the European and American markets to China . I would also like to invite you to invest in the UAE,” said Prince Khalifa .

“Yes, I will . The UAE is a land of gold . I like it . ”


“My friend, if you do invest in the UAE, I’ll give you an honorary citizenship . This is because of our relationship and our business dealings . You’ll have an opportunity to be part of the aristocracy too . ”

“This… Thank you, Your Highness . However, China doesn’t recognise dual-citizenship . ”

“That doesn’t matter . An honorary citizenship doesn’t mean that you’ll have to change your citizenship . You’ll have the same rights as any other citizen of the UAE with an honorary citizenship . ” Prince Khalifa suddenly laughed . “My friend, all the men in the world want to have this status, but not anyone can get it . ”

“Huh? Why?”

“Heh heh . Men are allowed to marry several wives in the UAE . It is legal . ”

“Haha!” Xia Lei laughed wickedly . “That’s really nice! Let me think about it . ”

As an honorary citizen of the UAE, he would have the same rights as a citizen of the UAE, including the right to marry several wives . This was very tempting to a lot of men . The thought of Shentu Tianyin, however, made Xia Lei feel guilty . Having one mistress, Jiang Ruyi, was enough to shame him deeply – how could he marry many wives?

For Prince Khalifa, it was advantageous for him if Xia Lei and himself deepened their friendship . Thunder Horse Military Factory was a valuable friend indeed .

As they talked and laughed, Xia Lei spotted Fu Mingmei standing by the road . He stopped the Chevrolet Suburban, opened the door, and got out . Prince Khalifa and his assistants alighted too, and Xia Lei led them towards Fu Mingmei .

It was then that Xia Lei saw what the ‘new home’ Shentu Tianyin had chosen was like . It was practically a tenth of the entire neighbourhood, and at its centre was a huge European-style palace . It resembled the Royal Palace of Seville, and was also similar to the Spanish Royal Palace . It was surrounded by sprawling gardens and the garden boasted Chinese-centric garden features – pavilions, walking paths and beautiful little streams and pools . It was breathtaking .



The arch behind Fu Mingmei had a gilded plaque on it which read ‘Leiyin Home’ . The characters flowed together harmoniously, and the calligraphy was excellent . One look and you knew that a great Master had written it .

This was Xia Lei’s first time coming to his new home, and he was thunderstruck . He gaped at the extravagant home behind Fu Mingmei, speechless .

“Master, what is with that expression of yours?” Fu Mingmei smirked .

Xia Lei snapped back to his senses . “This is way overboard, isn’t it? How many people would we need to fill this huge house?”

Fu Mingmei laughed . “It’s just going to be you and Tianyin . Oh, and Old Master . If you think you’ve got too many rooms, then have more children with Tianyin and fill those rooms . Won’t it be more lively then?”

Xia Lei rolled his eyes at Fu Mingmei, then invited Prince Khalifa and his assistant in .

Prince Khalifa was stunned by Xia Lei’s new home too . This property was more luxurious and extravagant than his own in the UAE .

Ali Khan drew close to Prince Khalifa’s ear and said in a low voice, “Your Highness, Xia Lei’s wife is the chairwoman of Vientaine Group . Her name is Shentu Tianyin, the wealthiest woman in China with a net worth of 14 billion US dollars . ”

“I see . ” Prince Khalifa smiled . “The best thing we have gained from this trip to China is not those weapons, but this friendship with this couple . ”

Prince Khalifa spoke in a low voice with Ali Khan but Xia Lei still heard them . A smile appeared in the corners of his mouth . He had shown Prince Khalifa how capable he was, over and over, and now Shentu Tianyin had been added to his profile too . His aim in presenting himself such was to expand into foreign markets with Prince Khalifa’s help . Becoming friends with Prince Khalifa was not only beneficial for Thunder Horse Group, but for Vientaine Group too .

Shentu Tianyin appeared in the doorway of the palace in a black evening gown . Around her neck was the Sacred Heart necklace Xia Lei had given her . Tonight, she seemed more like a noble than usual, and the grand palace behind her made her look like a queen of some country .



Xia Lei made the introductions . “Your Highness, this is my wife, Shentu Tianyin . ” After a pause, he said, “Tianyin, this is Prince Khalifa of the UAE . ”

“Nice to meet you, Prince Khalifa . ” Shentu Tianyin greeted Prince Khalifa elegantly, and shook hands with him .

Ali Khan interpreted for Shentu Tianyin .

Prince Khalifa smiled . “You are a very outstanding pair . It is my honour to be your friend . ”

“You are too kind, Your Highness . Please, come in . Dinner is ready . ” Shentu Tianyin invited their guests in like the gracious host she was .

Xia Lei’s eyes met hers, and they spoke with their eyes . The husband and wife were getting more and more in sync .

Dinner progressed in joviality, and ended on a happy note . Xia Lei, Shentu Tianyin and Prince Khalifa talked about various topics - the situation in the Middle East, the crude oil market, family backgrounds, hobbies and interests and so on .

Dinner came to an end, and the husband and wife had some tea with Prince Khalifa, then retired to their bedroom .

Xia Lei was stunned again by the room when he walked through its doors . The room was about a hundred square metres large, and a massive European-style bed sat in it . It was large enough to fit five or six people . The bathroom was about 50 square feet, and it had a bath with multiple functions, a heated bath and a sauna . There was no need to add that the decor was also extremely extravagant .

“Is this our new home?” Xia Lei was speechless . “Isn’t this too opulent?”

“It’s my new home, so of course it has to be the best . You don’t like it?” said Shentu Tianyin .



Xia Lei smiled . “I like it . I like whatever you choose . ”

Shentu Tianyin gave him a small smile and pulled him by the hand towards the ridiculously-sized bathroom . She said as they walked, “I love bathing with you, so I had this multi-function bath designed and installed . I haven’t tried it out yet . I want to try it with you . ”

Xia Lei was touched . He could not refuse a request like this .

Shentu Tianyin dropped her black evening gown to the carpet, and Xia Lei’s suit followed . Clothes were most unneeded in this intimate moment .

They entered the heated bath and enjoyed the kneading and massaging of water . He looked at her and she looked at him, and they were naturally drawn to each other . The relaxation in the bath turned to tenseness, and their bodies entwined in that warm, warm liquid…

Passion burned, and sparks flew .

Shentu Tianyin was an ice queen in front of others but for Xia Lei, she was a sweet, gentle woman who could also him with her passions . She showed her wonderful side to Xia Lei, and Xia Lei alone .

They calmed down after their passions had been satisfied, and floated half-lazily in the hot water, not feeling like moving at all .

“Tianyin, I’m being mobilised tomorrow . I’m going to Japan . ” Xia Lei did not want to leave Shentu Tianyin, but he had no other choice .

Shentu Tianyin put her arms around Xia Lei, holding him tight like she wanted to fuse him to her . “Be careful . Remember – I’ll be waiting for you to come home . ”

Xia Lei nodded . He was tense for some reason .
