Chapter 12 Ode to Joy
Time flew by quickly. In addition to having a work meal with Wendy, Han Tao spent the whole afternoon in the office reading information. This was very important for his next work. After all, it was his first project in a law firm.
Must be taken seriously!
It wasn't until the sunset that Han Tao got in his brand new Lincoln Navigator and rushed to the community where the system rewarded him. The person in charge was the newly appointed driver Yang Dongxu.
Half an hour later, Han Tao straightened his sleeves and got out of the car. After exchanging a few words with Yang Dongxu, he walked alone to the office building of the community property company.
Along the way, Han Tao is quite satisfied with this community. Although the system says it is a mid-range community, the environment and supporting facilities are still good, and the management of the property management company is relatively strict.
"Hello sir, how can I help you?"
Seeing Han Tao walking into the hall, a young girl in professional attire came over and asked enthusiastically.
Han Tao smiled slightly and said: "Hello, is your person in charge here?"
"You are looking for our manager, please wait a moment and I will contact you!"
The girl from the property management responded with a polite smile, then took out the walkie-talkie and called the person in charge. Two minutes later, a middle-aged man in a suit came to the lobby.
"Hello sir, I am the property manager of the Ode to Joy Community. Do you need anything?"
"Is this community called Ode to Joy?"
Han Tao was stunned when he heard the name of the community. When he saw the house purchase contract in the car, he felt it looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.
Now that the property manager said this, he immediately understood that since it was the world of film and television, it couldn't be a coincidence. I guess his guess was right.
The property manager looked at Han Tao and asked in confusion: "Sir, this is indeed the Ode to Joy Community. Is there anything wrong?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I have a property trust house in our community. I came here today to cancel the trust!"
After hearing Han Tao's explanation, the manager frowned and asked carefully:
"Sorry sir, I would like to ask you why you want to cancel the trusteeship. Is it because we did something wrong?"
Seeing that the property manager was confused, Han Tao smiled and waved his hand:
"You misunderstood, it's not your problem. I recently returned to Shanghai to work, so I plan to cancel the hosting and officially move in."
The property manager glanced at the front desk clerk and saw him nodding slightly. The front desk clerk quickly poured a cup of coffee for Han Tao and brought it over: "Sir, what do you call me?"
"Thanks!"
Putting the coffee on the coffee table, Han Tao glanced at the two of them and said politely: "Han Tao, just call me Mr. Han!"
"Hello Mr. Han, what building is your house in? Have you brought the real estate certificate and entrustment contract?"
"This is the real estate certificate and contract. My house is on the 23rd floor of Building 19."
After speaking, Han Tao opened the document bag in his bag and handed it to the property manager of Ode to Joy.
The property manager smiled slightly, stretched out his hands to take the contract, then looked at it carefully and said:
"Mr. Han, I have an impression of your house. I haven't moved in since it was handed over until it was renovated three months ago, and then it was transferred to property management.
You can rest assured that the furniture in your house is now equipped according to fine decoration standards, and we will send housekeeping staff to clean the house twice a week. You can move in at any time.
Our Ode to Joy community also provides 24-hour hotel-style property management services. No matter you have any needs, you can contact the front desk downstairs at any time, including the service staff and security personnel of our property department.
If you have any other needs or are not satisfied, please feel free to make suggestions or call me directly!"
Han Tao nodded and replied with a smile: "I am very satisfied with the properties in our community. Let's go look at the house together. We have been out of town before and are not familiar with the situation in the community!"
"Okay Mr. Han, come with me!"
The property manager stood up to greet Han Tao, then led the front desk staff to lead him straight to Building 19 of the Ode to Joy Community.
After arriving at the place, the property manager guided Han Tao to the elevator while continuing to give a basic introduction:
"The 23rd to 24th floors of each building in our Ode to Joy building are all boutique floors, with two staircases and two households. The area is nearly twice as large as the two staircases and three households on the floors below."
A few minutes later, the elevator door opened on the 23rd floor, and the property management staff and Han Tao walked out of the elevator.
When they arrived at the door of Room 2301, everyone put on disposable shoe covers, then opened the door and entered the room. The property manager took a look at the luxurious and elegant decoration, took out relevant information and followed his lead.
"Your house is a large flat-floor house with an area of 298 square meters. It is a top-class house in our community. It has four bedrooms and two living rooms, a study room and a nanny's room. The living room is directly connected to the 180-degree large viewing balcony."
Han Tao walked around the house while listening to the property manager's introduction. After browsing through them all, he nodded to the property manager and said:
"Very good. I'm very satisfied with the decoration and cleanliness. If there are no other procedures, then so be it. I'll come back to you if anything happens."
The property manager smiled and replied: "There are no other procedures. Thank you very much for your recognition of our work. Here are the information on water, electricity and other facilities and the recharge card. Please keep it. Then we will not disturb you. Goodbye Mr. Han."
"Manager Li, walk slowly, goodbye!"
After a brief understanding, and then handing over trivial matters such as water and electricity, Han Tao finally got the key to the house and the card for water and electricity.
After seeing off the property management staff, Han Tao called Yang Dongxu to bring his suitcase to him, and then went to a nearby shopping mall to buy some daily necessities, kitchen supplies, bedding, and food and drink.
After the house was tidied up and the clothes were sorted and hung in the closet, Han Tao, who had been busy all day, sat on the sofa and planned to take a good rest.
At the same time, Xu Jie, who had returned home from get off work, put on a red patterned pajamas and walked to the living room. Bored, she poured a whole coin jar of money into a large glass jar. At this time, her mother called and said that she Xu Jie was asked to attend the wedding. Xu Jie was so angry that she hung up the phone.
Feeling sad, she took out a glass, poured herself a glass of red wine, and then stood alone in front of the window sill, looking at the bright lights outside through the window.
Suddenly, Xu Jie's mind echoed with what Han Tao had said. He said every word he said was thorny, saying that he simply didn't want people to get close to him.
Recalling the scene carefully, Xu Jie couldn't help but feel something in her heart, so she picked up the phone and dialed!
Han Tao was already planning to take a rest when his phone rang suddenly. Seeing that the caller ID was Xu Jie, he answered directly:
"Hey, Lawyer Xu, why did you think of me here? Did your work not go well today?"
Hearing Han Tao's concern, Xu Jie responded: "It really didn't go well. I ran away with Chen Ran for a day. The other party's lawyer was very determined. There was no other way but to come out to investigate the situation."
"After running around all day! Are you still outside?"
"No, I've gone home."
Xu Jie responded with a smile on her face and asked: "Han Lu, where are you?"
"I've just settled in, what's the matter? Is there something wrong?"
"No, I just want to talk to you. What you said last time was right, I just don't want to be good! But today is different. I want to be happy but I can't be happy. What do you think I should do?"
"Can't you be happy?"
Han Tao pondered for a moment and asked directly: "Would you choose to drink or exercise? Believe me, venting is the best way to make people happy!"
"Drink a bar, I really want to get drunk today!"
Hearing Xu Jie's answer, Han Tao replied: "Wait for me, I'll be there soon!"
"good!"
Xu Jie hung up the phone and sat on the sofa with a complicated mood, waiting for Han Tao.
Her boyfriend's selfishness and hurt have always made her feel lonely and sad. Now the news of her mother's remarriage has made her even more lonely. At this time, she is alone, with no family or friends, which is particularly uncomfortable!
This is also the reason why she wrapped herself up, she didn't want others to know her thoughts, and she was afraid of being hurt again.
But Han Tao could see through her easily, so she called Han Tao just to communicate more and see how she felt about him. In her eyes, adults must make a decisive decision no matter what.
