Riverside Arc de Triomphe.
"Master, just put the box in the hallway. Sorry for the trouble." Lin Shirui said as she opened the door.
"No trouble, no trouble," a middle-aged man in a moving company uniform said with a smile. A young man in a suit and a property management logo was also helping to carry the things.
After the house was cleaned up, it was natural to move in. The two women had a lot of stuff, and Lin Shirui's Panamera definitely couldn't fit it all, so they hired a Wuling container truck from the moving company.
The helper was the building's housekeeper, working in the basement lobby, where most residents drove. The guard had informed him when Lin Shirui arrived with the boxes of goods; it was natural for him to be proactive in such a major matter as a moving-in.
"Thank you for your hard work. Please have a drink of water." Lin Shirui took two bottles of Evian mineral water from the table in the hallway and handed them over.
Si Mingyu hired a five-star hotel to clean the house and stock up on all daily necessities, hence the familiar scene of Evian beverages being placed at the door, which was originally prepared for the service staff.
"Thank you, Miss Lin. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions." The property manager bowed and left with the uncle from the moving company.
"Today I finally got to see how rich people live." Lily threw herself on the sofa and said while looking at the view of the Huangpu River outside the window.
"Indeed, that's what I thought when I first saw it." Lin Shirui also sat on the sofa next to her.
"Stop being so pretentious. You're a rich man now." Lily curled her lips.
"Pick a room for yourself."
"No rush, let me take a look around first." Lily said and stood up.
More than ten minutes later, Lily came back, looking devastated. "Sister, to be honest, I'm moved after seeing this house. It's true that poverty limits my imagination. If someone gives me this house, I will take him."
"That's not what I'm after." Lin Shirui explained.
"Of course I know. As for people, the more they want something, the less they get it. The less they want something, the more they have it." Lily sighed.
She knew how many girls in bars and nightclubs just wanted to hook up with a rich guy so they could live a carefree life. But even if they achieved their goal, even if he could buy them a small apartment, it would be considered a luxury. The average price of a 660,000 to 670,000 square meter apartment in Shanghai was nearly 4 million yuan.
Lily had just secretly checked the price of this house online. It was close to 80 million yuan, which could buy a whole building in his hometown. Even in Shanghai, where the rich gather, only a few people can afford such a large house.
"I'll live in this one." Lily chose the one on the west side of the living room. Although it was the smallest, it faced south and had a view of the Huangpu River.
"Why don't you choose the one next to the master bedroom?" Lin Shirui asked. In comparison, that room had an extra dressing room.
"I'll stay away from you, otherwise you'll scream too loudly in the middle of the night and I won't be able to sleep." Lily said jokingly.
"What are you talking about?" Lin Shirui's face turned red.
In fact, the sound insulation of this house is very good, and there are extra doors between the inside and the outside. When closed, the three rooms inside become a world of their own.
Lin Shirui asked Lili to move in with her, and Lili appreciated the offer and didn't refuse. They were all Shanghai residents, so no one should be too fussy. The rent for their previous apartment was 4,000 yuan a month, and the one before that, which was more remote, was 3,000 yuan a month, as both were two-bedroom apartments. If she were to rent on her own, the monthly expenses, around 1,500 yuan, would be quite a lot.
Because Lily no longer worked as an atmosphere member in bars and nightclubs, Lin Shirui introduced her to Shen Weian's company. Working in sales was a good opportunity for her to make use of her expertise, and of course she met the employment requirements, but her income would be cut in half.
Although the five-star hotel team prepared everything very well, some seasonal fruits and vegetables could not be kept for a long time. After the two put away all the things they moved, they had to go to the supermarket.
Looking at the car driving away, the property manager was also confused.
The electronic key fob registration indicated they were definitely not relatives. Lin Shirui's attire perfectly matched the owner's status, while the other, while considerably different, didn't look like a hired servant.
If it's a friend, who would let them live in their house for a long time? After all, the house has a male owner.
It's no wonder he's pondering these things; as a butler, serving the owner is his primary job. After deducting insurance, he still earns nearly 10,000 yuan a month. Although he works twelve hours a day, it's not tiring by comparison. Most owners have nannies at home, so there's nothing to bother him with.
Therefore, not offending the owners becomes the bottom line, and you have to figure out how to serve the owners well yourself.
In the supermarket.
Lin Shirui, who was shopping, received a call from Si Mingyu: "I'm shopping in the supermarket. Well, nothing, I'll be there on time."
"Do you have a job?" Lily asked. Although Lin Shirui didn't have to go to get off work on time if she had nothing to do, it was not the weekend after all, so it was normal to ask her for help if she had something to do.
"My boss is treating us to dinner tonight." Lin Shirui put away her phone and continued to pick things.
"We? Me too?" Lily lost her composure.
"Well, let's go together. I guess you haven't met him yet?" Lin Shirui gave an affirmative answer.
"I haven't met him yet. Can I not go?"
"Of course not. Why are you so cowardly at the critical moment? Is this still the Lily I know?"
"Your boss is not an ordinary person. I'm not sure about him." Lily was indeed a little guilty. The rich second generation she met in the bar before was not on the same level as Si Mingyu.
"You can hide on the first day, but you can hide on the fifteenth day. It's only a matter of time. Let's go."
Today was Lin Shirui's new house, so she had to celebrate. She chose the Kerry Center branch of the Jiaquan Qifu Restaurant, which is said to have excellent traditional Chinese cuisine and is also nearby.
The two arrived a little early, and after they sat down in the private room, the waiter presented them with the menu.
"This is too expensive. A bowl of porridge costs one thousand yuan." Although Lily had heard many customers bragging about it in the bar, she was still shocked when she saw it herself.
"well enough."
"Are you always so extravagant?" Although Lin Shirui sometimes mentioned some things that happened when eating out to Lily, she never mentioned the price.
"Not really. Whatever happens happens. It's just like going to a roadside snack bar when you're hungry." Lin Shirui explained.
The two stopped talking as Si Mingyu pushed the door open.
"Hello, Mr. Si." Lily quickly stood up and greeted him. To be honest, she hadn't thanked him in person for helping her yet.
"Don't be shy, sit down, sit down." They were all friends in private, so he didn't care about it.
Although Lily was a little reserved at the beginning, everyone gradually became chatting and laughing and returned to their normal selves. Everyone enjoyed the meal very well.
