"This is the compensation for breach of contract. Please...please count it..."
Jiang Si remained silent as she looked at the envelope Wang Dafa handed her.
Ninth Master was so angry that his lips twitched. "Heh, you've made me laugh!"
Is this about money?
This is about credibility! It's about reputation!
Having lived in Beijing for so many years, this was the first time he'd ever been tricked into being made meat!
No wonder Ninth Master was furious!
Seeing that Ninth Master was so angry that his fingers were cracking, Jiang Si shook her head at him.
The other party has already moved in, so there's no point in saying anything now.
Moreover, judging from the landlord's words, the conditions offered by the other party should far exceed the value of the house itself.
From the landlord's perspective, although what he did was not ethical, it was not entirely wrong.
Jiang Si didn't say anything more and accepted the penalty for breach of contract from Wang Dafa.
I checked everything and made sure there were no problems.
They immediately helped their third uncle turn around and leave.
Ninth Master had originally planned to have a couple of drinks with Third Uncle after completing the formalities, but now he was too ashamed to face anyone.
After sending his third uncle back to the courtyard house, he patted his chest and assured him.
"Don't worry, I'll keep looking for you tomorrow and I guarantee I'll find you a better house than this one."
Jiang Si smiled and nodded.
"Uncle Jiu, don't take this to heart. We can find a house later."
But this incident also served as a reminder to her that if she comes across a suitable house in the future, she should buy it without hesitation!
The courtyard house that was within her grasp slipped away, and Jiang Si's mood was somewhat affected.
However, to her surprise, there was more to the story.
As evening approached, someone suddenly knocked on the door of the courtyard.
Uncle Zhong was cooking in the kitchen when Jiang Si opened the door.
The door opened, and Jiang Si was stunned for a moment.
Standing outside the door was a tall man, about 1.85 meters tall, dressed in a white shirt and black pants, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who looked very refined.
At first glance, Jiang Si felt a strange sense of familiarity.
Strangely, she searched her memory for a long time but couldn't find any recollection of this person.
"Who are you looking for?" Jiang Si asked, puzzled.
The man's gaze paused when he saw her.
Perhaps feeling that staring at a girl like that was inappropriate, he quickly looked away.
"Hello," the man said, his voice clear and gentle.
You sound like you have a very good upbringing; they're even using your name now!
As Jiang Si was inwardly complaining, the man looked over and said, "Excuse me for disturbing you, my name is Chi Heng."
Chi Heng?
Jiang Si silently repeated the name in her mind.
I still don't remember much.
Until the other party handed over what they were holding: "Sorry, I bought the courtyard house on the street ahead."
"I didn't know the landlord had received your deposit before the purchase, nor did I know you had signed a letter of intent."
In just a few simple words, the whole story was explained clearly.
After he finished speaking, he bowed deeply to Jiang Si again.
"I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have taken your house."
"This is a small token of my appreciation; please accept it."
Jiang Si frowned upon hearing this.
"Comrade Chi, I think you've made a mistake."
Looking at the man in front of her, whose attitude was almost too polite, Jiang Si said calmly, "The landlord's breach of contract is a matter between him and me."
“Since the landlord has sold the house to you, it is yours, and there is no question of fighting over it.”
She paused for a moment, then added, "Even if it's an apology, the landlord should be the one to come."
The implied meaning in their words was clearly distinguished.
Seeing that Chi Heng seemed a little dazed, Jiang Si asked, "Is there anything else?"
If there's nothing else, she'll close the door.
As soon as he finished speaking, Third Uncle came out of the main room. "Sisi, who's here?"
Just as Jiang Si was about to speak, she saw the man standing at the door suddenly turn his head and look over.
The next second.
He blurted out, "Third...Third Uncle?"
