Walking into the Ito-Yokado department store, Wang Yitong felt particularly relaxed. The mall was bustling with people on the weekend. She strolled through the store, captivated by the dazzling array of merchandise.
Wang Yitong first browsed the supermarket, quickly noticing that the fruits and vegetables there were slightly more expensive than at other supermarkets. She then headed to the home furnishings section on the third floor, wondering what she might want to buy for her new apartment. She then walked from the third to the fourth floor, and then back to the first. Soon, feeling exhausted, Wang Yitong walked to the McDonald's next to the mall and found a quiet corner to sit down. She pulled out her phone and sent Zhang Benyuan a message, letting him know she was waiting for him at McDonald's.
While waiting, Wang Yitong quietly and comfortably enjoyed this rare leisure time. She stared intently at the people and scenery outside the window, her heart filled with beautiful visions of the future.
Not long after, Zhang Benyuan arrived at McDonald's. The moment he walked in, Wang Yitong immediately noticed him, happily stood up and walked towards him, then naturally took Zhang Benyuan's arm.
The two returned to the seat where Wang Yitong had just sat, and she handed the Coke she had ordered to Zhang Benyuan. Zhang Benyuan asked Wang Yitong with concern if she was tired from shopping. Wang Yitong smiled and shook her head, sharing her discoveries in the mall.
After hearing this, Zhang Benyuan checked his watch and said to Wang Yitong, "Tongtong, thank you for your hard work today in looking at houses. You'll need to come to the store to sign the contract later. I've prepared 15,000 yuan for you. Besides the rent, you can use the rest to buy anything else for the house. If you change jobs later, you'll also need to prepare some money."
Wang Yitong was very surprised after hearing this. "Thank you, but you giving me so much money at once really makes me feel a little dizzy. It feels like pie in the sky, and I am flattered."
"Don't feel any psychological burden. We are together, and I should be the one taking care of you. As long as you feel happy, you don't need to worry about other things. The time is almost up, I'll take you there first." Then the two left McDonald's and came to the parking lot. Zhang Benyuan took Wang Yitong to the vicinity of the agency store.
In the car, Zhang Benyuan handed Wang Yitong an envelope. "There's 10,000 yuan in it. Take it first. I'll leave the remaining 5,000 yuan with me. I'll give it to you when you come back to avoid losing it. There's fruit in the back seat. The clerk helped you this time. Remember to thank her later. Also, give a key to the clerk who helped you find a room today and ask her to ask the cleaner to clean the room tonight or before 10 am tomorrow. Then ask her for the phone number to change the locks. The clerk will explain everything you need to pay attention to. Come over when you're done. I'll be waiting for you in the car. Go ahead."
"Okay, Brother Yuan, I'll go over there then." Wang Yitong looked at Zhang Benyuan gratefully, took the envelope and put it away carefully.
After getting off the car, she picked up the fruit Zhang Benyuan bought and went to the store. She found Sister Yu and handed the fruit to her: "Sister Yu, thank you for your help today. I bought some fruit for you. It helped me rent a suitable house so quickly."
Sister Yu was quite surprised to see the fruit Wang Yitong handed over. She quickly said, "Ms. Wang, thank you for your kindness. I can't accept this. It's our job to help you find a satisfactory house. The landlord's cousin has arrived. You can take the things back by yourself. I need to copy your ID."
After hearing this, Wang Yitong placed the fruit directly on Sister Yu's workstation. Fortunately, she always carried her wallet with her. She quickly handed her ID card to Sister Yu. Sister Yu handed the prepared contract to both parties. She also gave Wang Yitong a copy of the landlord Zhao Yunhao's property ownership certificate and power of attorney. After both parties carefully reviewed the contract, they began to sign the lease agreement.
When discussing payment methods, Wang Yitong said to Sister Yu and the landlord's cousin, "I'm going to pay the rent and deposit in cash this time. Is that okay with you?"
The landlord's cousin frowned, thought for a moment, and then decided to go back to eat. She said, "I'll collect the cash for him this time. You can just transfer the rent directly to my cousin. His bank account number and contact information are also on the contract, so you can contact him directly if you have any questions. Also, here are all the keys to the house, as well as the electricity and water cards. They're all yours."
Wang Yitong took the rent and deposit from the envelope and handed them to the landlord's cousin, placing the remaining money back in the envelope. The landlord's cousin used the store's money counter to count the money. After confirming the amount was correct, she, with the help of Sister Yu, wrote a receipt to Wang Yitong. After the matter was settled, the landlord's cousin gave Wang Yitong some further instructions on the house, then hurriedly left, saying she had something urgent to do at home.
After watching her leave, Wang Yitong counted the agency fee and handed it to Sister Yu. "Sister Yu, I'm sorry to have interrupted your meal. The fruit is at your workstation. I have something else to trouble you with."
After that, she found the key given by the landlord's cousin, took out a key and 300 yuan and handed it to Sister Yu: "Sister Yu, this key is temporarily given to you. I also need you to help find a cleaner to clean the house tonight or before 10 o'clock tomorrow, so that I can move in directly tomorrow. I'll give you 300 yuan first, and I'll refund or pay you back later. I also need you to send me the phone number of a locksmith when you are free. Thank you for your help today, I'm leaving now."
Sister Yu took the key and sent Wang Yitong out of the store, saying to her, "Ms. Wang, I will arrange for the cleaning staff to clean up the place. I will send you the phone number of the locksmith later. You can contact me if you need anything in the future. Goodbye." After turning around, she distributed the fruits she bought to other colleagues, and told the store manager that the matter he had arranged had been successfully resolved.
