Chapter 7
Xue Mi's free and extravagant overtime life did not last long.
The company officially went back to work on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, but she gave herself two days off on the fifth and sixth days, just in time to go shopping with Zhang Xuan.
When they reached the first floor of the mall, she was unconsciously attracted by the car show in front of the square. She pulled Zhang Xuan and walked around several luxury cars for a long time.
"You don't even have a driver's license, why are you looking at cars?" Zhang Xuan looked puzzled.
"Just take a look, I don't necessarily have to buy it." Xue Mi said, her eyes fixed on the dazzling array of new functions, and she was reluctant to leave.
When she was in college, everyone in her dorm signed up for driving lessons, except her.
It’s not that I don’t want to learn, it’s just that I don’t have the money.
But now, it doesn’t matter even if you can’t drive. At worst, you can just hire a driver.
Xue Mi, who is about to become a billionaire, doesn't care about this small expense at all.
Even though she thought so, Xue Mi didn't rush to take action.
After all, I didn’t get the money, nor did I buy a house. Even if I bought a car, I had nowhere to park it.
After walking around and looking at the cars for a long time, Xue Mi was unconsciously attracted by the advertisements on the LED display screen.
It was actually just a very ordinary promotional advertisement, which showed a beautiful house, a car, a family with bright smiles, and a dog.
That was once the life that Xue Mi longed for most.
Although she soon realized that that kind of life had nothing to do with her, her yearning for a house still became her obsession.
In fact, Xue Mi will soon have no shortage of houses.
According to the list drawn up by Lawyer Feng, she will inherit several properties in China alone. The most valuable of them are two commercial buildings, which can bring in tens of millions of yuan in rent each year. She also has three detached villas, which were previously used for her mother to go on vacation. They are located in several places with suitable climates and picturesque scenery, both in the north and south, but none of them are in City A.
Even so, once the money arrives, the first thing Xue Mi will buy will definitely be a house.
Buy a house that belongs to her alone and no one can kick her out.
Just think of it as fulfilling an innocent obsession.
Although Xue Mi went shopping all day on the fifth day of the New Year, she didn't buy many things.
The main consideration is that I might have to move soon, so even if I buy it, it will still be a burden.
This thought reached its peak when she kept receiving calls from couriers.
It is the Spring Festival holiday now, and most stores are not shipping. The few that can ship can only choose the most expensive air freight.
Even so, Xue Mi received more than ten calls along the way. When she got home, it took her a long time just to enter the verification code to pick up the express delivery.
This sweet burden once again proved that impulse is the devil. Thinking about the more than 200 packages behind, she couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.
No matter how much I sigh, carrying all these things back home and unpacking them one by one is tiring, but it makes me very happy.
Especially when all the boxes are cleared away and the things are placed in the living room, a sense of satisfaction arises spontaneously.
Hoarding is human nature!
As for whether it can be used...if it can't be used, just give it away.
Xue Mi now has no psychological burden at all.
After two days of commuting and two days of delivering packages, it was clearly a rest day, but Xue Mi felt more tired than when she had worked overtime before.
It turns out that spending money is a very difficult thing. ⑻⑴4⑧⑥⒐63
On the first day of work after the new year, the company finally became lively, but there was nothing serious to do. We just distributed another round of bonus packets, held a meeting to cheer everyone up, and conveyed the ideas of the higher-level departments. It was almost over in the morning.
Because she had an appointment with Lawyer Feng to go to the notary office in the afternoon, Xue Mi asked her immediate supervisor for half a day off.
When Xue Mi asked for leave, her boss hadn't said anything yet. A woman in her 40s in the office suddenly sighed, "No wonder she works overtime so hard. She earns overtime pay and can make up for it on weekdays. This girl is really calculating."
In fact, there is no obvious conflict between this elder sister and Xue Mi, but she is famous for her sharp tongue in the office. Although she is unwilling to work overtime, she cannot bear to see others gain benefits. Last year, she ridiculed Xue Mi for a long time because of this matter. Now that she has caught the evidence this year, she will not let it go.
"Okay, it's just half a day. There's nothing to do in the afternoon anyway. If you're jealous of the overtime pay, you can earn it next year?" said Xue Mi's direct superior.
The elder sister rolled her eyes and stopped talking.
Just kidding, even if she was jealous of the money, she was not willing to run to the office in the wind and snow during the New Year.
They have families and are very busy during the New Year holidays, so only young people with no worries can take advantage of this.
Xue Mi gave her boss a grateful smile and ran away with her bag.
The mean elder sister continued to gossip with others: "Xue Mi seems to be from another place, right? You say these young people, just to earn some overtime pay, don't even care about their parents at home, and don't even go home for the New Year, how unfilial they are."
"Her boyfriend said he was a local, maybe she spent the New Year at her boyfriend's house?"
"You're just a young girl, and you're not even married yet, but you're already throwing money at someone? That's too rude. Let me tell you, my daughter is different from these girls. She's very well-behaved, and her boyfriend is also good. She's even planning to buy a car recently, but I don't know what brand to buy..."
Xue Mi couldn't hear these rumors, and she didn't care even if she heard them. She was ready to quit this job anyway.
Xue Mi actually doesn't hate this job. Her boss is easy to talk to and she gets along well with most of her colleagues. However, there are always some guys who are difficult to deal with, which seriously affects the working atmosphere.
However, Xue Mi is not in a hurry to resign immediately.
Who knows what unexpected things might happen before the money arrives?
Although the 300,000 yuan had reassured her for the most part, what if something unexpected happened?
At 2:30 p.m., Xue Mi and Lawyer Feng met in front of the Justice Bureau. As soon as they met, Xue Mi couldn't help but raise her eyebrows in surprise at Lawyer Feng's feet, which were wrapped like steamed buns.
Her previous hallucination actually matched reality.
Even the shape of the bandage on Lawyer Feng's foot was exactly the same as the one she had seen before!
"Lawyer Feng, how did you get injured? Is the injury serious? If you had told me earlier, we could have changed the time." Xue Mi said tentatively.
"It's nothing, just a common sprain," said Lawyer Feng. "It won't affect my work. By the way, this is my assistant Xiao Wang, helping me with paperwork this time."
Lawyer Feng introduced to Xue Mi the young man who came with him this time.
Xiao Wang looked to be in his 20s, as if he had just graduated from college. At this moment, he was secretly looking at Xue Mi in surprise, as if he felt that this legendary billionaire woman was completely different from what he had imagined.
Too simple and too young.
Xue Mi smiled politely at the other party, but in fact, there was a storm in her heart.
She didn't take the previous hallucination too seriously. After all, she later shook hands with Zhang Ying, and nothing happened.
It now seems that either this ability needs to be triggered at a specific time, or it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. She can't grasp it for the time being.
This ability saved her from danger as soon as it appeared, so Xue Mi didn't think it was a bad thing. However, people can't help but be wary of unknown things, especially this kind of... hard to explain things.
But now, she has more important things to do, so she can only put her doubts aside for the time being and then slowly explore.
The notary office hall looked unusually deserted on the first day after the holiday. Apart from the staff sitting at the counter, there was no one else.
Several notaries had not yet completely recovered from the afterglow of the festival and were chatting idly among themselves in a relaxed atmosphere.
The conversation ended temporarily until a few people pushed the door open and came in. I heard that they were here to apply for a notarized inheritance certificate. A young notary handed out the "Notarization Application Form" and asked if I had brought all the documents.
Even though he walked with a limp, Lawyer Feng would certainly not make any mistakes in this regard. He instructed Xiao Wang to fill out the form, and when there were only a few signature columns left, he handed it to Xue Mi and asked her to sign one by one.
Xue Mi looked at the terrifying amount of money again, took a deep breath, and signed with a pen.
The application materials were handed in to the counter again, and Xue Mi clearly heard that the young notary, who was originally a little listless, suddenly took a breath and looked at the people outside the counter in disbelief.
"Are you sure you filled in the numbers correctly?" she asked in surprise.
This reaction made Xue Mi think of the first day of the Lunar New Year when she heard Lawyer Feng report that string of numbers for the first time.
Xiao Wang was not surprised by her question and nodded: "That's right, you can see the copy we submitted."
On a thin piece of paper was the property certificate of the heir issued by the bank. The long string of numbers looked even more frightening than those on the application form.
"Ma, please wait a moment, I'll go call our director..." the young notary stuttered, and when he stood up, he accidentally tripped over the chair and almost fell.
The commotion here obviously caught the attention of several other people. The director, who was originally talking to another person, also took the initiative to come over at this time: "Xiao Zhang, what's wrong? What are you doing so rashly?"
Xiao Zhang still looked hurried as he handed over the application form in his hand.
The director adjusted his reading glasses, took a look at the application, and said, "This business is not difficult to handle. What's the big deal..."
Then the next moment, his glasses almost fell off: "This...this amount of money, are you sure it's not wrong?"
Xiao Zhang silently took out the copy again.
The director's expression became serious, and he carefully read the application materials and said, "The information is quite complete. Just follow the application process for large estates."
He turned to another senior notary and said, "Ouyang, you will be in charge of the review of this account. Be careful and don't make any mistakes."
Even if the submitted information seems to be fine, it is still a huge sum of money, so one cannot help but be cautious.
After giving the instructions, the director looked curiously at the applicant not far away.
She was just an ordinary pretty girl. She didn't wear any jewelry and her clothes didn't look particularly expensive.
Who would have thought that such a young girl would be the heir to 1 billion in cash?
There are quite a few wealthy people in City A, but this is the first time he has seen someone so young and so rich.
