Chapter 21: The Steward

"Your charisma is quite useful!" Tang Guo said with emotion, this can't be said to be mocking Qin Cang, of course, it's not a complete compliment, even when she said this sentence herself, she didn't know how to define what she wanted to express, in general, it should be a combination of many different feelings, so complicated that it was a little difficult to analyze and judge. That Mr. Zhao is not the type of enthusiastic and good citizen at first glance, can cooperate with them so actively, not only provide the address and contact information, but even use the effort of copying to make a more detailed mark on it, this is of course the credit of Qin Cang's personal charm, I didn't expect him to have such a great effect as long as he restrained his indifference a little bit to reject people thousands of miles away.

But thinking about it again, after he got the information he needed, he immediately put on that cold face mercilessly, so that Teacher Zhao, who was still hopeful, immediately put a hot face on his cold buttocks, Tang Guo felt that his inner feelings were even more complicated, on the one hand, he felt that Qin Cang seemed to be a little too ruthless, too ruthless to people, it was completely the use of Chiguoguo, and on the other hand, thinking of that Teacher Zhao's deflated appearance, she felt a little dark.

It is estimated that it is because Mr. Zhao is too good for himself and Qin Cang, and he is very arrogant to Qin Cang, and he will feel uncomfortable if he is replaced by anyone, it must be like this.

Qin Cang didn't care at all about her unclear words, raised his eyebrows, nodded, and said very frankly and slightly shamelessly: "You are right, I will use it properly in the future." ā€

Tang Guo secretly rolled his eyes and pursed his lips, if it came from her heart, she didn't want Qin Cang to properly use his charm to others, and she couldn't say why, anyway, it was not pleasing to see him deliberately showing kindness to others, but it was much more comfortable to look at his usual cold appearance.

Since he decided to go to the boy's house named Shen Xiu, Qin Cang drove directly over there according to the address shown on the pile of addresses, Zhang Yumeng's residence was a little farther away than Shen Xiu's home from the New Century Elite International Foreign Chinese School, she had come back early, I believe this Shen Xiu should have also arrived home.

Shen Xiu's family conditions are obviously how big a gap there is compared to Zhang Yumeng's, Qin Cang and Tang Guo can't say, they can only see from the address that his family lives in a high-rise apartment building, not in a villa like Zhang Yumeng's family, so originally Tang Guo thought that Shen Xiu might be one of the few ordinary children in the New Century Elite International Foreign Chinese School, but the school recruited him with a special temptation of tuition waiver and exemption in order to increase the admission rate. As a result, when she came to the door of the community where Shen Xiu's house was located, she realized how ridiculous her previous thoughts were, who said that rich people must live in villas, and people who live in villas must be richer than people who live in high-rise apartment buildings?

Shen Xiu's home is a good example! As a native, but there is a serious lack of attention and common sense in the real estate market, Tang Guo didn't know that there was such a high-rise apartment community in City A before, the construction area here was actually 300 square meters, and there was a large piece of magnificent reliefs at the entrance of the community.

The management here is also very strict, after a series of registration, as well as notifying the owner, soliciting the owner's opinion, waiting for the owner's reply process, two people finally in a uniformed security guard, led into the community, walking through the winding path, along the way to see the rockery stone bridge, as well as artificial lakes and small pavilions, the security guard is very proud to introduce to them, this small difference to see the building is only a few, but the park is very spacious, they just passed through the Chinese garden area, In addition, there are European-style garden areas and Mediterranean-style garden areas, each area has a unique style and characteristics, for the owners to buy a house here to choose, the house type here is similar, only the area of more than 100 square meters up and down differences, the smallest more than 300 square meters, the big 500 square meters, so a choice of focus is naturally what kind of landscape can be seen outside the window, some people like Chinese, there are also people who choose European, Mediterranean, in short, the owners of the money in place, it is necessary to let the family enjoy that kind of treatment.

Tang Guo listened silently, secretly staggering in his heart, good guy, there is only "a difference between the top and bottom of the area of more than 100 square meters"! How many people have the area of the house all added up to the "only" difference between the types of houses in this community to be greater, she thinks that the family conditions are even well-off, and she has always been quite content and happy, but the family conditions are really incomparable to people, and when I came here, I saw that my house that had just reached the difference in the size of this community was about to become extremely poor. Don't say anything else, let's just say that the security guard who led them the way was a well-made uniform from head to toe, and she and Qin Cang followed behind in civilian clothes, as if the other party was more like a policeman than the two of them.

Came to the downstairs of the building where Shen Xiu's house was located, and the security guard took them into the lobby on the first floor, the decoration style of the lobby on the first floor was like a star-rated hotel outside, with marble and red carpets on the ground, high ceilings, gorgeous hanging crystal chandeliers, and large pillars that one person couldn't hold, Tang Guo tried not to look around, so as not to look as if he had never seen the world, which was embarrassing. The security guard handed them over to the owner housekeeper of this building, the owner housekeeper was wearing a black tuxedo, accompanied by a white shirt, looming from the neckline of the tuxedo to reveal a light gray suit vest, the pants on the lower body were the same color as the suit vest but slightly darker gray, he had a wide black tie around his neck, the collar of the shirt was upright, a small triangle was turned on both sides, and he was wearing white gloves on his hands, seeing Tang Guo and Qin Cang, he folded his hands in front of him, He bowed to them at a forty-five-degree angle.

"You don't have to be so polite......" Tang Guo was a little embarrassed by this set of etiquette.

The owner's housekeeper straightened up, smiled at them, and said, "You don't have to mind, this is our company's regulations, it has to be like this, I'm used to it." Please, both of you, I'll take you upstairs. The company stipulates that visitors must be accompanied by our in-house personnel throughout the process of entering and leaving the owner's home. ā€

Tang Guo didn't think there was anything surprising about this matter, if it weren't for such a rule, she and Qin Cang wouldn't have been sent all the way down this building by the security guard, obviously it wouldn't be too difficult to find it on their own. So as soon as the owner's housekeeper said this, she and Qin Cang followed him to the elevator without any objections.

In the process of the elevator slowly rising, Tang Guo wanted to seize the opportunity to talk to the owner's housekeeper who dealt with the owner all day long, to see if he could ask something valuable: "How many owner's housekeepers do you usually have in a building here?" Can you be busy? Will there be a lot of things? ā€

"Fortunately, we have a total of three people and implement three shifts to ensure that there are housekeepers on duty 24 hours a day to serve the owners anytime and anywhere." The owner's housekeeper had questions and answers, but when answering the questions, there was an indescribable meaning in his attitude, which could be said to be a well-trained sense of alienation, and it seemed to have a faint sense of superiority, and he didn't take Tang Guo and Qin Cang too seriously, after all, with the income of the two of them as policemen, it is estimated that there is no way to afford the huge apartment area of this community in this life, let alone this kind of property fee standard that will definitely be very expensive when I hear the service. Therefore, the owner's housekeeper does not particularly look at the two people who are absolutely impossible to become the owners here, but because of the company's disciplinary requirements, he must be polite on the surface. When he spoke, with a faint arrogance, as if working here is also a superior thing, "We have a ladder and a household design here, one floor on the first floor, no jumps, the elevator directly enters the house, and the occupancy rate has not reached 100%, it may be difficult for ordinary people to bear the consumption here, so our work is not particularly heavy." ā€

"The family we're going to has a son named Shen Xiu, do you know him?" Tang Guo automatically filtered out his kind of expression with a little show-off, and when he heard him say that the occupancy rate was not high, and there was only one room on one floor, he felt quite happy, because in this way, the scope of residents was narrowed down a lot, and there were not so many people coming in and out every day, and it would be easier for the three owners and housekeepers to get acquainted with everyone who lived here.

"I know, but I don't know each other, I haven't communicated much," the owner's housekeeper stared at the number of floors beating on the TV screen, and answered Tang Guo's question, "It should be a student, if I'm not mistaken." ā€

"Usually he's—"

Tang Guo wanted to continue inquiring, but was stopped by the owner's housekeeper as soon as he raised his hand.

"I'm sorry, we have discipline requirements, we can't talk about the owner's private affairs casually, and we can't spread the owner's private affairs to outsiders," he said with a straight face and without looking back, "Everything born here is the owner's **, and we have the obligation to protect the owner**." ā€

Tang Guo pursed his lips behind him, feeling that this person's attitude was really a little annoying, and he seemed to be very educated, but in fact he was not polite. But what people said is not wrong, discipline requirements are discipline requirements, and she has nothing to say, so she simply doesn't say anything, and quietly stares at the floor display screen with the owner's housekeeper.
