When Xu Jianguo reported the amount he intended to deposit, the young woman once again knocked over the coins she had just sorted, and accidentally fell to the ground.
Xu Jianguo stood up slightly to check on the woman. After a while, the woman stood at the counter, somewhat embarrassed, and bowed to him. Then she said, "Sir, I'm sorry, the amount you deposited is too large, and I don't have the authority to process it. Please wait a moment, I'll ask our manager to come and process it for you."
Xu Jianguo nodded without saying anything. He looked at the woman's anxious back, feeling a little amused.
A moment later, the woman led a middle-aged man to the counter and said, "Hello, sir. This is our bank manager, Dong Jiahao."
"Hello, Manager Dong!" Xu Jianguo said.
"Hello sir, thank you for choosing our bank. What is your name?" Dong Jiahao asked respectfully.
"My name is Guo Jianxu (Xu Jianguo's pseudonym in Hong Kong Island)." Xu Jianguo said.
"Mr. Guo, it's a pleasure to meet you! There are so many people here, so please follow me. I will be the one to serve you."
"OK!"
Led by Dong Jiahao, Xu Jianguo came to an office not far away. The young woman poured him a cup of coffee and then left the office.
"Mr. Guo, may I ask if you have brought your money?"
"Here!" Xu Jianguo put the luggage bag on the table.
Dong Jiahao unzipped his pants. Even with his position as a manager at HSBC, he still felt a little overwhelmed when he saw so many brand new pounds at once. He unconsciously glanced at Xu Jianguo who was sitting calmly on the chair.
Xu Jianguo noticed his gaze and said, "Manager Dong, please take inventory. I have a business meeting soon, so please be quick!"
Dong Jiahao was startled and quickly said, "Okay, I understand. Give me twenty minutes!"
He picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number. In less than two minutes, seven or eight people walked in from outside. Two of them looked like security guards, and the rest were bank staff.
Twenty minutes later, after everyone had counted the money, Dong Jiahao handed a HSBC passbook and a personal checkbook to Xu Jianguo.
Then, surrounded by a large group of people, Xu Jianguo left HSBC and walked towards Xu Ziqi's company.
When Xu Jianguo arrived at Xu Ziqi's company, she was sitting in the office with an anxious look on her face.
“Boom boom boom!”
There was a knock on the door, and Xu Ziqi's somewhat impatient voice came from inside the room: "Come in."
Xu Jianguo pushed the door open and when their eyes met, the anxious look on Xu Ziqi's face immediately disappeared, replaced by a look of surprise.
Before nine o'clock this morning, Xu Ziqi came to the company and was waiting for Xu Jianguo's arrival.
However, when the agreed time arrived, Xu Jianguo did not show up, which made Xu Ziqi feel a little anxious, and her mind was full of random thoughts.
As the time came to 10:20, the young figure still did not appear, which made Xu Ziqi feel a little frustrated.
But God always seemed to like playing such jokes on people. Just when she was about to give up, someone knocked on the office door, and then she saw the man she had been thinking about day and night appear in front of her.
If Xu Jianguo knew what Xu Ziqi was thinking right now, he would definitely tell her that he was married right away and would nip her messy thoughts in the bud.
"Xu Jianguo!" Xu Ziqi stood up happily, then glared at him with a hint of resentment, and said in the tone of a woman in the boudoir: "Why are you late? Do you know how long I've been waiting for you?"
"Uh..." Xu Jianguo touched his nose, trying to hide his embarrassment. After a while, he said, "I'm sorry, Miss Xu. I was delayed at the bank just now. After I finished my business at the bank, I got lost and it took me a while to find your company."
Xu Ziqi looked at Xu Jianguo's embarrassed expression and burst out laughing.
"Idiot, you should have come to the company first and wait for me to take you there! In view of your sincere attitude, I will forgive you this time!" Xu Ziqi said.
"Okay, I'll pay attention next time!" Xu Jianguo said.
"Since you are here, let's go!"
"Where are you going?"
"Looking for a house? Didn't you ask me to find one for you? Now that I've found one, you can go and take a look!"
"Ah? Oh, okay, don't pull me, I can walk by myself!" Xu Jianguo didn't react for a moment, until Xu Ziqi pulled his arm and walked out, he spoke hurriedly.
After leaving the company, the two walked in the same direction. Xu Jianguo asked, "Don't you need to call a taxi?"
"No need, it's not far away, it's right there!" Xu Ziqi said, raising her hand and pointing to a building not far away.
"So close? All four apartments are in this building?"
Xu Ziqi shook her head and said, "There are three houses here. The house you plan to live in is in another place, not far from here."
Xu Jianguo nodded, said nothing more, and followed Xu Ziqi forward.
It took them more than an hour to look at all three houses. All three were on the fifth floor and were about the same size. Xu Jianguo thought they were good and was about to buy them immediately, but was pulled outside by Xu Ziqi.
