Chapter 26 Renting a House
Song Mo was stunned for a moment before he remembered that after their conversation at the bar that day, Gao Yuanyuan had left this note sometime before she left.
He didn't have his phone with him at the time, so he couldn't contact her.
Later, we got mobile phones, but I was so busy with signing contracts and promoting online songs that I forgot about this.
They've already left their phone number with me, how can I not call them?
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he entered the numbers one by one, stared at the screen for a few seconds, and then pressed the dial button.
Beep~~Beep~~Beep
It rang three times before the other end answered.
"Feed? Who is it?" The voice was soft and languid, and music could be faintly heard. Song Mo felt that it sounded familiar.
"Gao Yuanyuan? It's me, Song Mo."
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
"Song Mo?" Her voice suddenly brightened, tinged with surprise. "Song Mo, what made you decide to make a phone call?"
"I just bought a new phone." Song Mo leaned against the wall, his tone relaxed. "As your friend, I have to call you."
He didn't mention it at all, saying he had just found the note and remembered the matter.
"Oh~" she drawled, emphasizing the last syllable, "I thought you'd long forgotten about me as a friend."
"No way, I've just been too busy lately," Song Mo said with a light laugh.
"What are you busy with? Signing with Ocean Butterflies?" Gao Yuanyuan asked, a thought suddenly occurring to her.
"Yes, that's it. We just signed the contract today. From today onwards, your friend is a superstar on the verge of bursting onto the scene," Song Mo said, feigning exaggeration.
Gao Yuanyuan on the other end of the phone smiled and said, "You're very energetic. As your friend, I believe in you. I'll definitely support you when you release your album."
"Okay, then I'll thank you in advance." Song Mo laughed heartily.
"You've signed with the company, will you be very busy after that?" Gao Yuanyuan asked curiously.
She hasn't signed with any entertainment agency yet, essentially going it alone. It's not that she doesn't want to sign with a company, it's just that there are very few agencies these days, and she's currently a newcomer in the film and television industry; she wouldn't even have a chance to sign with one. Therefore, her idea of "signing with a company" is somewhat unrealistic.
"It's alright," Song Mo said. "I've been busy renting a new place these past few days, so I haven't even been to Ocean Butterflies yet."
"Where are you planning to look for a house? Maybe I can recommend one. I did a lot of research when I was looking for a house recently," Gao Yuanyuan said confidently.
"It just needs to be close to Ocean Butterflies," Song Mo said. "Ideally, it should be within walking distance or easily accessible by public transport." Song Mo didn't stand on ceremony and directly stated his needs.
Gao Yuanyuan thought for a moment, "Is Ocean Butterflies located in the Balizhuang area?"
Song Mo hummed in agreement.
"The houses over there aren't very good. They're either too old or have terrible layouts," Gao Yuanyuan said, having also seen the houses there.
Song Mo chimed in, "I went to check out Balizhuang today, and it really isn't working out."
Gao Yuanyuan was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Why don't you come and take a look around Ciyun Temple Bridge? The neighborhood where I live is called Lidao 2000. It's a new apartment complex, all fully furnished, and the environment is quite nice. It's not far from Balizhuang either; it's only a ten-minute taxi ride."
Song Mo was taken aback: "You live near Ciyun Temple Bridge?"
This place isn't far from Ocean Butterflies' offices, so it's actually a pretty good choice.
"Yes, I moved in last year," she said. "There are quite a few apartments for rent around here, and the layouts are all pretty good. If you'd like to come and see them, I can show you around tomorrow."
Song Mo thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, then tomorrow."
"Then I'll wait for your call tomorrow." Gao Yuanyuan's voice carried a hint of amusement. "Call me when you arrive."
"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Song Mo threw his phone onto the bed. He hadn't expected to find a free intermediary just by making a call.
The next morning, Song Mo took a car to Ciyun Temple Bridge.
The Lidao 2000 residential complex was built around 2000 and is considered one of the earliest fully furnished apartments in Yanjing.
The location is good, near the intersection of Chaoyang Road and East Fourth Ring Road, and the transportation is very convenient.
The car stopped at the entrance of the residential area. Song Mo got out and saw that it was indeed much better than Chenguang Jiayuan.
The exterior is light-colored, clean and neat, there is greenery downstairs, and there is a security guard at the entrance.
He took out his phone and called Gao Yuanyuan.
"I've arrived, at the entrance of the residential area."
"Wait a moment, I'll be right down."
Five or six minutes later, Gao Yuanyuan came out of the building.
She was dressed casually today, wearing a white short-sleeved T-shirt with a beige jacket and light blue denim shorts.
Her hair was tied in a ponytail, and she wasn't wearing much makeup. Compared to when we met at the bar, she looked less sophisticated and more homely.
That added a touch of gentleness and innocence to her face.
"You're here?" She walked up to Song Mo, looked him up and down, and couldn't help but smile. "You look much more energetic today. It seems that good news really does make people feel better. Congratulations on signing with the company."
Song Mo smiled. "Do you think it's possible that I'm just naturally like this? But you, why are you looking so plain today?"
Gao Yuanyuan glared at him: "I don't wear makeup every day. Who am I doing this for if I stay at home?"
"Am I not human?" Song Mo's soul-searching question was still unspoken.
Gao Yuanyuan turned and walked into the residential area, her ponytail swinging back and forth: "Come on, I'll show you the apartments. There are a few for rent here; I asked around yesterday."
Song Mo followed behind her, looking around the neighborhood.
The landscaping is quite good; there are several ginkgo trees, and their leaves are still green.
There's a small garden downstairs where a few elderly people are sunbathing.
There was no smell of garbage in the air, and you could hardly hear any car horns.
"The environment here is indeed very nice," he said.
"Of course." Gao Yuanyuan glanced back at him. "How could the place I chose be bad?"
She said this with a hint of smugness in her tone, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
In recent years, she has been filming movies and TV shows, and has actually saved up some money. She originally wanted to buy a house, but she is still far from being able to buy a house outright.
She decided to rent a place temporarily; she had put a lot of effort into finding this place.
The two walked to a building, and Gao Yuanyuan stopped and gestured, "In my building, there are two apartments for rent, and in the building next door there are three. The layout is similar to mine. Which one would you like to see first?"
"Let's look at the building you live in first. There must have been a reason why you chose this building in the first place," Song Mo said with a light laugh.
Gao Yuanyuan snapped her fingers. "The building I live in will have better natural light, but we'll have to see the specifics of the apartment layout."
She led Song Mo into the building, introducing the apartments as they went: "These are all fully furnished and equipped with appliances, so you can move in right away. The complex has property management, 24-hour hot water, and there's even an elevator. But I still recommend you stay on a lower floor, so that if there's a power outage or something, it won't cause too much trouble."
Listening to her introduction, Song Mo couldn't help but laugh and say, "I didn't expect you to have a talent for being a real estate agent."
Gao Yuanyuan glared at him: "I was kindly helping you find a house, and you're complaining?"
"No, no, I dare not." Song Mo quickly waved his hand, "I will never forget the kindness and virtue shown to you, beautiful lady."
Gao Yuanyuan was amused by his funny appearance and burst out laughing.
Then, suppressing a laugh, he said, "Let's wait here for a bit. I've contacted the landlord; she'll be here soon."
