Chapter 536: Chapter 565: Buying a House Again (Chapter 2)
At eight oâclock, Lin Xi stood outside the suite door and first sent a message to Gu Xiaoxian, saying that she had already arrived outside.
Not long after, Gu Xiaoxian, dressed in pajamas, opened the door with a somewhat shy and puzzled expression, looking at Lin Xi,
"Um, arenât you going to military training?"
"I took half a day off today. After settling you and your daughter this morning, weâll head to school together!" Lin Xi said.
Hearing this, Gu Xiaoxian felt a bit embarrassed, but didnât say anything!
After the two returned to the room, Gu Lan was already dressed by that time, looking as if she had just gotten up as well.
"Auntie, weâll take you to breakfast first, and then show you a place to stay, so you can settle down later!" Lin Xi said to Gu Lan.
Gu Lan had planned this last night too, after all, with ten thousand yuan, she could afford to rent.
After the two washed up, Lin Xi took them to have breakfast near the hotel.
At this time, Xu Hong had parked the car by the roadside, waiting for the three of them.
In less than half an hour, the four arrived at a sales center. Lin Xi noticed that this was the place where she and Bai Bing had purchased a house before.
"Xiaolin, why are we here?" Gu Lan asked with a puzzled look as she got off, "Shouldnât we go to a rental agency? This place doesnât rent houses, does it?"
Lin Xi smiled, "Auntie, donât worry, weâre in the right place!"
With Gu Lanâs doubtful expression, Lin Xi led the three inside, and at first glance saw the young saleswoman sitting in her fixed position.
Previously she stood in the hall, and it seemed she had been promoted after selling that villa.
She immediately saw Lin Xi and couldnât help but stand up, exclaiming,
"Ah, itâs you!"
Lin Xi smiled and nodded, "Do you have any houses here that are ready to move into, already furnished?"
The young saleswoman nodded excitedly, "Yes, yes, yes, thereâs just one, let me find the pictures for you right away."
She sat at the computer and began searching with her head down.
For her, all her promotions were thanks to selling that villa to Bai Bing last time, and the person she was most grateful to was Lin Xi.
After that sale, she earned hundreds of thousands in commission, was praised by the company leaders, and was directly promoted a level.
To know she had only been with the company for less than a month made her the envy of colleagues who hadnât changed in over a year.
In a short while, the young saleswoman moved the laptop in front of Lin Xi and others, introducing,
"This layout is three bedrooms and two living rooms, with a total area of one hundred and thirty square meters. Although it doesnât seem large, the layout is very reasonable. Many people want to buy it but canât!"
Next to her, Gu Lan muttered to herself, one hundred and thirty square meters is small? Little sister, you must be joking!
Actually, she misunderstood the young saleswoman. Last time Lin Xi and Bai Bing bought a big villa, so compared to last time, this indeed seemed small!
At this point, she also noticed the puzzled look on everyoneâs face, likely due to the statement that many people wanted to buy it but couldnât!
"Itâs because the owner just bought this house and hasnât moved in yet. Due to work changes, they have to go abroad for a few years, possibly not returning, so they need to handle it immediately!"
"Just ten minutes before you arrived, they had just left!"
Listening to what she was saying, Lin Xi looked at the photos on the computer. Overall, the young saleswoman wasnât lying; the houseâs layout was indeed very reasonable.
"How much?" he asked.
The young saleswoman directly quoted the minimum price, "Three million!"
Not only because of her gratitude to Lin Xi, but more importantly because last time her boss was eager to cater to Lin Xi and Bai Bing.
Moreover, it was critical that her boss instructed her to inform him whenever Lin Xi comes again.
"Xiaolin, weâre renting, not buying!" Gu Lan pulled Lin Xi back a bit,
"And besides, we donât need such a big place, and canât afford to rent it either!"
Of course, buying was even further out of her mind; three million was an astronomical figure for her.
Gu Xiaoxian had the same thought as Gu Lan at this time!
Lin Xi didnât answer directly but asked, "Auntie, do you like this house?"
"Of course I like it, but thatâs just not realistic!" Gu Lan replied seriously. Anyone with a discerning eye could see this house was excellent.
"As long as you like it!" Lin Xi then looked at Gu Xiaoxian, "Xiaoxian, do you like it?"
Gu Xiaoxian blushed and nodded.
What girl wouldnât like to own a house of her own, but many times, itâs just something they wouldnât dare dream of.
"Alright then!" Lin Xi didnât explain further, directly handing a bank card to the young saleswoman,
"Weâll take this one!"
The young saleswoman happily took the bank card and led Lin Xi to the counter.
On the side, Xu Hong hadnât said a word from beginning to end; to him, three million wasnât much, especially not to the boss!
And if someone with the prowess of a special forces soldier passed by Xu Hong at this moment, they would feel an astonishing aura emanating from him.
Yes, last night he broke through to the level of King of Soldiers!
Generally speaking, those at the King of Soldiers level can easily control their aura, but he had just broken through the previous night!
The sudden increase in power left him unadapted, and he estimated it would take him several days of adjustment before he could use it freely.
In a short while, the young saleswoman came running back from the counter, asking Gu Xiaoxian, Gu Lan, and Xu Hong to sit on the chairs beside them and handing each a glass of water.
At the same time, she looked at Gu Xiaoxian, smiling brightly, and asked, "Hello, can I have your ID card?"
"Sheâs really so beautiful!" she couldnât help but think to herself again.
Gu Xiaoxian and her mother Gu Lan felt something was off when Lin Xi was paying for the house purchase.
Wasnât he taking them out to find a house for them to live in? Why was he buying a house himself?
Could it be that he was buying it for them?
The mere thought of it made them laugh inwardly, thinking they were being too naive. Thatâs three million, how could he just gift it to them?
Even a super rich second generation wouldnât be so extravagant!
After all, Gu Xiaoxian had no substantial relationship with Lin Xi!
Even if they were a real couple, itâs unlikely to directly gift a three-million-dollar home!
To them, it was simply impossible!
"Here you go!" Gu Xiaoxian took out her ID card from her wallet and handed it to the young saleswoman, asking,
"What for?"
The young saleswoman gave a mysterious smile, didnât answer Gu Xiaoxianâs question, and ran back to the counter.
Gu Xiaoxian exchanged glances with her mother, Gu Lan, thinking, "Could it be that Lin Xi is planning to rent out that house to them?"
"But, such a house would cost at least five thousand in rent per month, they canât afford it!"
"If they were allowed to live for free, they wouldnât feel comfortable either, as they donât like being recipients of charity!"
Xu Hong silently drank water, not saying a word. To him, it was obvious that the boss was buying the house for Gu Xiaoxian.
In a while, the young saleswoman returned with some contract-like documents and walked back with Lin Xi.
She placed the documents in front of Gu Xiaoxian, "Miss Gu, could you please sign here?"
"..." Gu Xiaoxian.
"..." Gu Lan.
Because both of them could clearly see the words on the contract: House Purchase Agreement, with Gu Xiaoxianâs name on it.
PS: Thanks everyone for the recommendation votes and monthly votes, and Iâll go write the third Chapter.
