Opening the door, Wang Yitong saw keys and 150 yuan on the shoe cabinet, along with a pack of new shoe covers. She said to Zhang Benyuan, "Brother Yuan, your store clerk is so thoughtful, even providing shoe covers. Most importantly, the pictures she sent were all real. When I looked at houses online before, many of them didn't match the pictures."
After hearing this, Zhang Benyuan smiled and replied, "This clerk does a great job. It's rare to find a house and close a deal immediately within one day. I have to ask the store manager to pay special attention to this employee. This person is indeed very meticulous, and his good experience is worth sharing and promoting. You are my lucky star, and you gave a good reminder." The two then put their luggage into the bedroom.
Zhang Benyuan reminded Wang Yitong to contact a locksmith to come and change the locks, and also reminded her to contact the landlord to inform him that she needed parking. Wang Yitong then took out her phone and texted the landlord, "Brother Zhao, sorry to bother you. I need to use your parking space, and the security guard reminded me to go to the property management to register my information. Do you think I should go to the property management or should you contact them?"
Two minutes later, the landlord, Zhao Yunhao, saw Wang Yitong's text message and thought she came from a well-off family, having a car right out of school. So, he called her directly: "Are you moving in today? I've already paid the parking fee this year, so you'll pay it next year. Go directly to the property management office to enter your vehicle information and go through the detailed procedures yourself. Contact me if you have any questions later."
"Okay, I'll go check it out later. I thought the 1,300 you mentioned included all expenses, so I'll pay it next year. Thank you, Brother Zhao." After Wang Yitong finished speaking, he told Zhang Benyuan the situation.
Zhang Benyuan lay on the sofa, enjoying the air conditioning, and said, "You're a pretty good landlord, not one to be picky. Generally speaking, parking fees are the responsibility of the tenant. Also, look at how newly renovated this apartment is, with all the furniture and appliances, all from big brands. It's obvious it's for personal use. It seems the agent put a lot of effort into finding you a place, and you're lucky to have rented such a worry-free place. I'll help you organize your things. Bring a copy of the rental contract and the landlord's purchase agreement. I'll send you the license plate number, and you can go find the property registration information now."
After hearing this, Wang Yitong found the relevant information in the suitcase, then left the house and went to the property to handle the parking procedures.
About 20 minutes later, the locksmith arrived. After knocking, a man opened the door. He recommended several locks at different prices and explained the features of each in detail.
Zhang Benyuan smiled, pulled out two Zhonghua cigarettes from his bag, handed them to the technician, and said, "I'm pretty familiar with your business, so don't exaggerate the price. Let's get a Gold Dot Atom C-grade lock. Don't ask for 2300, how about 180?"
The locksmith took the cigarette, sniffed it and said, "Handsome guy, you know your stuff. 180 is 180, I will definitely fix it for you." After a while, the locksmith replaced the lock and took the old key away.
After the locksmith left, Wang Yitong returned from the property management office. She brought four bottles of mineral water with her. After drinking some, they continued to pack their luggage and put it in order.
After finishing his preparations, Zhang Benyuan gently opened his arms and embraced Wang Yitong tightly. He said with deep affection, "Now I can finally embrace you wholeheartedly, without any reservations. No one else will come to disturb us." He leaned down slightly and slowly, gently kissed Wang Yitong's delicate, flower-like lips. In that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the whole world was just them, each other.
Wang Yitong's face flushed, and her eyes closed slightly, enjoying the sweetness of this moment. Their breathing gradually became rapid, and their heartbeats became faster and faster.
After a moment, they slowly separated.
Wang Yitong whispered, "This is our new beginning. The days ahead will surely be wonderful."
Zhang Benyuan nodded and took her hand and walked into the living room.
"I've put 5,000 yuan in your bedside table. When I'm not around, you can buy something you like. We'll have a simple lunch at the restaurant downstairs. We won't rest at noon, but will go to Ito-Yokado to see if there's anything we need."
Wang Yitong was slightly startled, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She looked at Zhang Benyuan with emotion and said softly, "Thank you. I will take good care of myself."
They walked hand in hand to the noodle shop downstairs and found a quiet corner to sit down. The noodle shop was filled with the strong smell of fireworks, which made people feel particularly warm.
After a while, two bowls of steaming noodles were served. They sat opposite each other, enjoying the simple food while sharing their feelings.
