Liwu and He Xiao Yi arrived at Qin Yifei's house, a stand alone villa in a private estate reserved for city hall employees. Weijun had built it to give those who served him a stress free living environment.
Qin Yifei was not a city hall employee, but he had pulled some strings to move to City hall bay, as it was called. It was not an exaggerated living area or a show piece, but a practical haven.
Two modest apartment buildings rose on either side of the main lane, their walls painted with earthy tones. No gilded balconies, just clean lines, wide windows, and small gardens at the base.
There was a shared playground, scattered with children's toys and an in-house restaurant and clinic that operated 24/7, which was operated by city hall. But everyone knew the money went to Weijun, not the city.
The air smelled faintly of sweet flowering shrubs and peace.
