Chapter 6 Taking possession of the house
A bright magenta Xiaomi SU7 slowly drove into the spacious underground parking garage of Haitang Bay residential community.
Chen Qiu gripped the steering wheel and drove towards the parking area of Building 9, following the clear signs in the garage.
After leaving Chow Tai Fook, he first drove back to the internet cafe where he had previously stored his luggage to retrieve it.
Chen Qiu originally planned to go straight home, but the thought of suddenly having a fully paid-off house under his name filled him with curiosity and a sense of unreality, compelling him to come and see for himself.
This is a house! I've worked hard in Shenzhen for several years, and I still haven't saved enough for a down payment.
However, the system only gave him the property ownership certificate, but not the keys.
As he asked the system in his mind, the cold, mechanical voice sounded again: [Host can proceed directly.]
He parked the car steadily in a parking space in the basement of Building 9.
As soon as I unbuckled my seatbelt, I saw a man in a sharp suit pacing anxiously back and forth in the elevator lobby not far away. He kept glancing at his watch and craning his neck to look around at the garage entrance.
Chen Qiu closed the car door and walked towards the man.
"Hello, excuse me, I'm here to take possession of my apartment. Where is the property management center located?"
Li Qing, who was anxiously waiting, had his mind on the entrance, hoping to see a Mercedes-Benz or BMW with a special license plate, when he was suddenly startled by a voice behind him.
He turned around and saw an ordinary-looking young man who was about to impatiently point in a direction, but the words "taking possession of the house" made his heart skip a beat.
His gaze involuntarily drifted past the young man and landed on a bright magenta Xiaomi SU7 not far away, its color extremely eye-catching and its newness almost reflective.
A thought flashed through his mind.
The boss said on the phone that the new owner's surname is "Chen".
Li Qing's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the young man in front of him and asked, "Hello, are you Mr. Chen, the new owner of apartment 501 in building 9?"
Chen Qiu was somewhat surprised that the other party knew his surname, and he nodded.
The moment his identity was confirmed, Li Qing's smile blossomed like a chrysanthemum, his enthusiasm and respect completely different from before.
"Oh! Mr. Chen! We've been waiting for you!" He strode forward, extending both hands to firmly grasp Chen Qiu's. "Our boss already called to inform me. My surname is Li, and I'm the property area manager for Haitang Bay. You can just call me Xiao Li!"
"Hello, Manager Li." Chen Qiu shook hands with him, somewhat taken aback by the other party's enthusiasm.
Li Qing clasped hands while quickly sizing up Chen Qiu.
He's too young, looks like he's only in his early twenties, and his clothes are as ordinary as can be.
Yet this young man was able to get the group's big boss to call him personally, specifically instructing him to "treat him well," and even giving him the last apartment in Building 9.
Li Qing thought to himself: He doesn't look like a rich second generation, he looks more like a low-key second generation of officials!
"Mr. Chen, this way please! I'll take you up to see the apartment! I already had someone open the windows to ventilate it, so I guarantee the air will be fresh when you go in!"
He led the way while giving a long and detailed introduction.
"Mr. Chen, let me tell you, your apartment is undoubtedly the king of the entire complex! It's a one-apartment-per-floor unit, a spacious 158 square meters, with an actual usable area of over 180 square meters! The location, natural light, and view are all top-notch! So many people were vying for it back then, but our boss didn't budge!"
As Chen Qiu listened to his introduction, her heart was filled with anticipation.
The two entered the elevator and went straight to the 5th floor.
Li Qing used the key he had prepared beforehand to open the door to room 501.
When Chen Qiu stepped into the house that belonged to her, her eyes lit up!
A huge living room with a north-south facing layout and unobstructed views from the windows...
He walked to the south-facing balcony, looked down at the exquisite gardens of the community below, and nodded with satisfaction.
As expected of something given by the system, it's truly top-notch!
……
Meanwhile, downstairs in Building 9.
Lin Shishan and her group stood listlessly at the entrance of the hall, the atmosphere awkward and dull.
Suddenly, she noticed with her sharp eyes that an upward arrow lit up on the elevator floor display screen in the lobby, eventually stopping steadily on the number "5".
"They've arrived!" Lin Shishan said immediately.
The intense curiosity in her heart was like a cat's claws scratching at her heart.
She really wanted to know what kind of person could make Li Qing so obsequious and so easily obtain the house she had always dreamed of.
"Let's go up and take a look," she said to Chen Yujie.
Chen Yujie looked troubled.
"Oh? Is this...is this not a good idea? Manager Li has already told us to wait downstairs."
"What's wrong with it?"
Lin Shishan immediately retorted confidently.
"We are customers too, and we are also sincerely here to buy a house! Why can't he let us see it, but let others see it? What's wrong with us going up to take a look and find out what's going on? Don't we even have the right to know?"
Her words left Chen Yujie speechless.
Huang Hui said with some dissatisfaction, "It shouldn't be a problem to take a look, right?"
Looking at Lin Shishan's unquestionable gaze and then at his mother's eager expression, Chen Yujie could only nod helplessly.
So, the four of them, each with their own thoughts, entered the elevator of Building 9 once again.
The elevator slowly ascended and finally stopped on the 5th floor.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, they heard Li Qing's enthusiastic voice coming from the open doors of room 501.
"...Mr. Chen, look at this terrace design! It's a stroke of genius! Imagine setting up a small tea table here, reading a book, and sipping tea—life here would be like living in paradise!"
Lin Shishan was the first to step out of the elevator, tiptoed to the door of 501, and quietly peeked inside.
She spotted the property manager, Li Qing, at a glance. He was standing respectfully beside a young man, his face plastered with a fawning smile, gesturing wildly as he introduced the apartment. The young man, meanwhile, stood with his back to the door on the spacious balcony, gazing into the distance.
Seeing Li Qing's obsequious, sycophantic manner, Huang Hui, who was following behind, couldn't help but curl her lip and whisper in amazement, "How can a young man make this Manager Li so fawn over him?"
Chen Yujie and Lin Shishan agreed wholeheartedly, and their curiosity about the identity of the person in the back view grew even stronger.
Only Luo Jinglan was stunned the moment she saw that figure from behind.
That figure...
That height, that build, even the familiar coat he was wearing...
All of these things gave her a deep-seated sense of familiarity.
"Son...son?"
