V4C220 – Mysterious Person (1/2)
“Ah!” Xu Xueyun felt her brain go haywire! She had never even dreamt that I would suddenly say such words! What was this? Was I confessing to her?
Xu Xueyun looked at me with a silly expression, feeling at a loss of what to say! A paradise that will belong to us? That is simply… Xu Xueyun couldn’t imagine! However, she was happy and finally sobered up, saying in a very joyful manner, “Sorry, I wrongly blamed you…”
“How could it be; it was all because I didn’t explain everything to you already…” I had to admire my eloquence even more now! How could I handle the matter like this? But it seems that my mother had only given me a quota of three more and I have already used it, right?
It doesn’t matter. He Xiyuan was betrothed to me before birth, so she can’t be calculated towards the quota. In other words, I can still look for another one! I consoled myself with this thought.
“Since we are talking about the issue, I will take the liberty and ask if I can also go to that paradise?” Xu Er’s voice came from the front.
I looked at Xu Xueyun and quickly exchanged a look.
“Your brother sure has good timing!”
“Yeah, let’s take him as well, he won’t have to work as a driver anymore! You can let him be the door guard there!” Xu Xueyun said angrily! Xu Er, on the other hand, didn’t know what wrong he had committed to be assigned the duty of a guard by his sister.
When we arrived outside the area where He Xiyuan lived, I didn’t let Xu Xueyun leave the car. Instead, I had Xu Er follow me to the He Family’s place.
The He Family was already prepared. As they still had a home in the country town of Songjiang, and B City was only for the sake of He Xiyuan’s studies, they didn’t have much luggage. There were only two suitcases, one for He Xiyuan, and the other for adoptive mother and father.
The landlord had already arrived to discuss the matter of handover with He Dali.
“You can leave, but I am not going to give up the remaining one and a half month of rent!” The landlord said.
“This… We are only asking for one month of our rent, that’s not too excessive. We won’t ask for the half month that we aren’t going to use!” He Dali said.
“The price that I rented you the place for was already cheap, and according to regulations if you don’t want to keep on renting, you have to tell me in advance so I can search for other tenants!” The landlord said, “Telling me at such short notice will just leave my house empty for a while!”
“Adoptive father, forget it, the landlord is right and he also has his difficulties!” I didn’t care much about money and the landlord’s reasons weren’t baseless either, so he obviously wasn’t obliged to return the rent!
“Right, what this young man said was right!” The landlord agreed with my words, but he also felt a bit embarrassed and said, “Or how about this, one month’s rent is 800, but I will give you back 500!”
“That’s good as well!” Being able to get some rent back made He Dali happy. He never expected that the landlord won’t come to a good agreement even after so much effort from him, yet a few words from me solved the issue!
In fact, when I entered the house, I could already tell that the landlord wasn’t a person who was greedy for money and profit. The only reason he insisted was that he was really afraid that the house won’t get rented for quite a while once they emptied it, and he won’t be receiving any rent for it. But my generosity made the landlord a bit embarrassed, so he agreed to give some amount back.
After handling some other matters, Xu Er and I helped adoptive father bring the suitcases downstairs.
At this time, the residents in the community also started to come out. Some were going for their morning exercise, others were out to buy breakfast, and most of them were going to work!
When they saw my Rolls Royce and the RV parked in their community, they were surprised! This area was basically for the low-end workers. Even if there was a car coming here, it would be some ordinary model. Now that vehicles that would otherwise only be seen before some luxury hotel were parked here, a lot of attention was obviously attracted!
