Chapter 254: Judging by Appearances, Sister Yue Pulls Out Her Card
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
Xiao Ling smiled and stepped aside, making way, “You can go inside and take a look at our sand table and architectural models. It will give you a better idea.”
Jiang Da instinctively wanted to refuse.
They weren’t buying anything, so why bother looking around?
Han Yunru hesitated a bit. It wasn’t that she wanted to buy, but since they had already spoken out, and now they were being openly invited in to see, if they didn’t go, it would seem like she was petty and insecure.
A hint of amusement flashed in Jiang Fuyue’s eyes as she held Han Yunru’s arm, urging, “Mom, since we’re here already and there’s been a fuss, wouldn’t it be… a bit awkward if we don’t go in and take a look?”
“You dare say that,” Han Yunru scolded with a playful tone, “don’t you see what kind of place this is? Our family can’t afford houses like these.”
It wasn’t meant as blame, but rather a lament: “In the end, it’s because your dad and I don’t have the ability to let you and your brother live more comfortably…”
Other people’s children are born with their own separate rooms, while Yueyue and Chenxing are still using bunk beds.
Thinking about this, Han Yunru became even more determined to change houses.
Although they couldn’t afford a villa, biting the bullet to give each of them their own room was still doable.
Even if it meant paying a few hundred extra in rent each month, they could make it back by staying open half an hour later at the store.
With a clear mind, she felt relieved, “Alright, let’s go in and take a look.”
Consider it broadening their horizons. Just like she said earlier, just because they can’t afford it, does that mean they have to look down on them?
Han Yunru immediately straightened her chest, and her conflicted expression returned to calmness, once again appearing composed.
Little Brother Jiang blinked his eyes, his pupils shining brightly.
Who doesn’t like beautiful things? Even if they couldn’t touch, couldn’t feel, couldn’t live in them, it’s still nice to look at.
Jiang Da looked at the mother and her two children, “?”
Sorry, I’m not quite detached enough yet.
Xiao Ling watched the interaction between the family of four and had the first reaction—
These mom and daughter are too good-looking!
Sorry, in the world of being attracted by appearances, things are just that simple and straightforward.
The second reaction—
Who is this little cutie?
Finally—
This dad seems a bit silly.
“Please come this way…” Xiao Ling led them inside, politely poured tea, “Uncle and aunt, have some water.”
“Eh…” Jiang Da took it somewhat awkwardly, “It’s not necessary.”
“It’s no trouble,” Xiao Ling smiled and took out the floor plan, laying them out on the table one by one, “It’s just a matter of course. We’re not busy at work anyway, so showing you the most distinctive features of our place is just a breeze.”
Little Brother Jiang looked curious, “What distinctive features?”
Xiao Ling, looking at his bright and innocent face, almost couldn’t resist, and directly took action, “Ahem… Of course, it’s the houses, after all, we’re selling houses!”
Then, she turned the first drawing around and placed it in front of Jiang Da, “Here, take a look. This is the row of townhouses in our new phase that’s about to open.”
Little Brother Jiang: “What’s a row of townhouses?”
“A row of townhouses is between a villa and an apartment, formed by stacking multiple layers of duplex residences. Generally, there are four to seven layers, with each unit consisting of two to three layers of villa layouts stacked on top of each other. This phase we’re in has seven layers.”
Little Brother Jiang looked at the pictures with relish, unable to conceal his amazement, “They’re so beautiful…”
Han Yunru was also momentarily stunned.
Jiang Da saw the reactions of his wife and children and felt guilty.
At this moment, Zheng Qian, who had been left at the front desk by the manager, somehow also followed them in. Seeing the situation, without even looking at the family of four, she sneered at Xiao Ling, “What’s the difference between you introducing villas to poor people and selling umbrellas at the entrance of a temple or pushing cotton clothes in Africa?”
Xiao Ling, hearing this, kept her smile unchanged and pulled out another drawing, pushing it in front of the couple, “Uncle and aunt, this one is different. It’s called a rowhouse. The biggest feature is the independent courtyard, formed by several three-story single-unit villas connected in series. One to four layers are connected in a row, with each two units sharing the exterior wall, having a unified plane design and independent entrances. The building area is approximately 250 square meters, and it’s also one of our main products this season.”
Zheng Qian was ignored as if she were air, and her eyes instantly flared with anger. This Xiao Ling usually seemed honest and obedient, but she didn’t expect her to be so ungrateful!
“Ah, Sister Qian, are you talking to me?” Xiao Ling seemed to just notice her presence.
Zheng Qian sneered, “Not talking to you? Am I talking to ghosts?”
Xiao Ling frowned.
Little Brother Jiang suddenly realized, whispering to Han Yunru, “No wonder I didn’t understand anything Auntie said just now. Turns out, she was speaking ghost language.”
“Pfft—” Xiao Ling couldn’t help but laugh, “Little Boy, why are you so cute?”
Little Brother Jiang said seriously, “Actually, you can praise me for being handsome.”
“Haha…” Xiao Ling readily agreed, “Okay, okay, you’re handsome, you’re the most handsome!”
Little Brother Jiang blushed instantly, burying his chin in his collar.
Ying!
Xiao Ling’s face flushed with blood, and her heart went crazy, screaming internally: Brother, you’re so cute!
And Zheng Qian’s face had long turned green and purple, like an overturned palette: “You—You—”
“Ahem…” Xiao Ling coughed lightly, looked up at her, and said kindly, “Sister Qian, I’m fine here. You can go busy yourself.”
“What, want to drive me away? You’ve only been here a few days and you’re already so arrogant. Do you even know who you are?!”
Xiao Ling looked at her helplessly, “I didn’t…”
“Aren’t you supposed to serve these poor people? You just come and go as you please? Want to see it? Want to show it?! Do these people even deserve it? Use your brain, will you? Don’t waste your time on useless things!”
“Words can’t be said like this. What if they really want to buy…”
“Want to buy? Who wouldn’t want to buy a standalone villa in Yutian Huafu? I want to buy one too! But where’s the money? The cheapest ones are fifty million. Look at this family—” The woman pointed her red-painted fingernails at Jiang Fuyue’s family. “Do they look like they can afford fifty million?”
“But…”
“No buts. Even if you apply, the manager won’t agree. If these people offend the residents inside, who will take responsibility? You? Look at yourself, do you even qualify…”
Xiao Ling’s eyes reddened with anger.
Suddenly—
Jiang Fuyue said, “No need to look.”
Zheng Qian: “See? All your efforts introducing the place were wasted. They just turn and leave—”
Without looking at her, Jiang Fuyue took out a bank card. “I’ll buy. Let’s sign the contract now.”
