Chapter 14. Buying a House
Yi Ruo looked at the medicine on the table and thought to herself that people in high positions are always more rational than others. Watching the Bentley downstairs slowly driving out of the street, Yi Ruo wiped away her tears. Looking at the black card in her hand, she couldn't help but smile.
He was the most generous man she had ever met.
Lying in bed, she watched the sky gradually darken. The dark blue sky looked like it had been washed by clear water. The night wiped out the last ray of setting sun, and the night fell slowly like a velvet curtain in a theater. Yi Ruo fell asleep after thinking vaguely about what to do tomorrow.
- The office -
"Boss Shen, Yi Ruo hasn't come yet?" Secretary Chen thought of the empty corridor and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he glanced at Shen Xi.
"Well. She has been unwell recently, so please ask for leave for her." Shen Xi paused and said lightly.
"Okay." Secretary Chen replied with a sigh, thinking that Mr. Shen had been in a low mood all day, and he might have had a falling out with Yi Ruo.
Shen Xi looked at Secretary Chen who walked out the door, and his brows, which had been furrowed all the time, tightened even more when he saw the message on his phone.
Opening the bill and looking at a series of consumption, the largest expense was nearly 3 million. Shen Xi called the bank for consultation and found out that Yi Ruo had bought an apartment and a car by the river, both paid in full. Shen Xi sighed, hung up the phone, and ignored it.
On the street, Yi Ruo took her newly bought bags and clothes, stuffed them into her new car, sat in the driver's seat coolly, put on sunglasses and started the car.
Glancing at the property deed on the passenger seat, she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes. She planned to find an agent to sell it as soon as possible.
The reason why she went through so much trouble to buy a house and a car was to be able to rationalize the consumption of large sums of money. Everyone wants to have a car and a house, especially someone like her who has no education and no experience. After all, she couldn't use Shen Xi's card to pay off her debts, otherwise everyone would guess that she was hooking up with Shen Xi for money.
On that day, she bought a house worth nearly 2.5 million yuan, of which about one million yuan was used to pay off her debts, and the rest was kept in the bank for emergencies. As for the remaining 500,000 yuan, she bought a car worth 300,000 yuan, and clothes, bags, accessories, etc. worth about 200,000 yuan.
As for why she didn't buy a more expensive car, it was of course because she didn't have the money for subsequent maintenance. She couldn't be someone's mistress for the rest of her life.
After picking up the phone and contacting the agent, Yi Ruo breathed a sigh of relief and drove back to the apartment.
The next morning, she received a message from the agent saying that someone was interested in buying the apartment by the river. The house was in the city center and there were many wealthy people, so there was no need to worry about not being able to sell it.
Yi Ruo made an appointment with the agent to meet at a riverside apartment in the afternoon. After that, she lay on the sofa with nothing to do, thinking that it would be great to wait for money to fall from the sky.
- The other side -
Secretary Chen stood in front of Shen Xi's desk, looking at the increasingly depressed man, and said awkwardly:
"Do you need me to... apply for leave for Yi Ruo again?"
Shen Xi glanced at Secretary Chen and continued to look down at the report that the department had just compiled. Secretary Chen touched his nose and thought, okay, this means he has to use up his annual leave. There are only two days left anyway. While thinking this, he held his breath and walked out of the office.
After sorting out the information on hand, Shen Xi glanced at his phone, and finally picked it up, opened the address book, turned to the name "Yi Ruo", hesitated for a moment, and sent a message.
‘Ding ding’
Just when Yiruo was about to fall asleep, the cell phone beside her rang.
Yi Ruo picked it up and saw that it was a message from Shen Xi. She raised her eyebrows and opened it, "You'd better come to the company tomorrow. The annual leave will start the day after tomorrow."
Yi Ruo smiled silently, turned off her phone, stood up and prepared to go to the riverside.
Soon, they met the real estate agent and the man who wanted to buy the house. He was wearing casual clothes, but the brand was not small. He shook hands with Yi Ruo like a gentleman.
"Miss Yi Ruo, why would you want to buy this apartment? Although it appears to have complete amenities, it seems like no one has ever lived here before."
Yi Ruo gazed at the man opposite her, smiled slightly, and said, “A friend just gave me the apartment yesterday, but I don't like it, so I'm reselling it. The hardware inside was already there, and the software was a gift because I paid in full.'"
"Since Miss Yi Ruo paid in full for the software, I will also pay you in full."
The man looked at the design and decoration of the room and signed the contract readily after finding no problems. Yi Ruo looked at the man's cheerful look and happily invited him to have dinner together.
Dinner was also scheduled for night.
After all, Yi Ruo was a lazy person and didn't like to go out much. She didn't know which good restaurants were nearby, and the man had only recently arrived here.
This time, the two did not choose a private room but sat by the window. They ordered a few dishes and started chatting.
From the conversation, Yi Ruo knew that this was a knowledgeable man who had just been transferred from City B to City S, and his workplace was in the building opposite Yikan Company.
Yi Ruo smiled and talked to the man about everything from work to life, and then back to work. The man knew that Yi Ruo was planning to change jobs, so he introduced Yi Ruo to their company to apply. Yi Ruo smiled and neither agreed nor refused.
"Boss Shen, is that Yi Ruo over there?" Secretary Chen looked at Yi Ruo with surprise outside the door. Yi Ruo was sitting by the bed with a smile on her face. He followed Yi Ruo's gaze to the man sitting opposite her, and after a moment of silence, he turned around and looked at Shen Xi.
He found that Shen Xi had left, but if he looked closely, he could still find that Shen Xi's face was even more gloomy than before, and even the corners of his mouth that were usually smiling were tightly pursed.
Secretary Chen touched his nose again, closed his mouth and followed.
