Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

Seeing Han Tao nodding repeatedly, Xu Yun led him and Zhu Suosuo back to the living room and said:

"Mr. Han, that's the basic situation. If you two have any further questions, my entire staff and I are ready to answer them at any time.

Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that in addition to the supporting facilities you just saw, your house also provides full smart home appliance services and two supporting parking spaces in the underground parking lot."

You may have comfortable bedrooms and magnificent living rooms in other luxury homes, such as the Grand Hyatt Residence that Han Tao previously lived in. However, the sense of superiority that comes from standing on the balcony and looking down on Shanghai is truly reflected to the fullest here.

In order to fully utilize the advantages of the river view, the designer installed balconies in the four bedrooms that Han Tao had just viewed.

If you look out from your bed, the view outside the window will probably be like a vivid oil painting, making you linger.

Han Tao and Zhu Suosuo looked at each other, and seeing her eyes full of love and shock, he couldn't help but smile slightly and nodded.

"Manager Xu, I'm very satisfied with the decoration style. It is indeed the work of a famous artist. Please give me the contract and the agreement that needs to be signed!"

"Okay, Mr. Han, please wait."

After that, Manager Xu handed the contract to Han Tao, and the legal officer stepped forward to explain it one by one. Han Tao looked at this meticulous legal officer and nodded with satisfaction.

I admired his rigor and patience in my heart. In his opinion, this habit was really necessary.

"Brother Han, the housing prices here are ridiculously high! I just want to move out. There's no need to buy such a nice house. This costs tens of millions. Isn't it a bit of a waste?"

Seeing that Zhu Suosuo really liked this house, but seeing her reluctant and conflicted expression, Han Tao lowered his head and whispered to her jokingly:

"What Suosuo said makes a lot of sense. Why don't we go look somewhere else? As for a house, we can first look for one outside the outer ring road. The tens of millions we save can be used to save for our future son to get married!"

"Hate it... There are outsiders here, what are you talking about!"

Seeing Han Tao making fun of her in public, Zhu Suosuo rolled her eyes at him. Although Han Tao spoke very quietly, she still felt embarrassed.

Seeing the intimate behavior between Han Tao and Zhu Suosuo, Xu Yun and the property girl were extremely envious of Zhu Suosuo for being able to find a man who loved her so much.

After adjusting her mentality, Xu Yun smiled and said to Zhu Suosuo, "Mrs. Han, you are joking. Only such a good house can be worthy of your choice. It is also the most worthy of your living. How can it not be worth it!

Besides, the house has been fully paid for, and all that’s left is the signature and transfer. I think Mr. Han wants to give you a surprise!

"Tens of millions are gone. This isn't a surprise, this is a shock!"

Although Zhu Suosuo was so moved that she wanted to cry and really liked this house very much, she couldn't help but feel sad when she thought about how much money she had spent.

Han Tao on the side smiled, read all the contents carefully, signed his name, and then pushed the contract in front of Zhu Suosuo, pointing with his finger and said:

"Suosuo, just write your name, ID number, and other information in this blank space."

"I want to sign too? Brother Han, are you planning to put both of our names on the property deed?"

Zhu Suosuo looked at Han Tao in surprise. She thought Han Tao just wanted to buy a house for herself to live in, but she didn't expect that he would write two names on it. What this meant was self-evident.

Han Tao smiled and looked at her as if it was a matter of course: "It's not a plan, but a certainty!"

"Let's not do it. I'm already so happy to be able to live here. Don't be greedy!"

Zhu Suosuo shook her head. For a moment, she still couldn't adapt to Han Tao's style, which was different from her own role.

Han Tao scratched her nose and said lovingly, "Are you silly? I wouldn't even give you half of this house.

How can I have the dignity to say I will take care of you for the rest of your life? You won't forget, will you? I promised Grandma Nansun that I would make sure you have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life."

"Brother Han, you are so nice to me!"

Hearing Han Tao say this, Zhu Suosuo couldn't help but be moved with tears in her eyes. She suddenly threw herself into his arms and held his waist tightly.

Han Tao patted her back gently and said softly, "Alright, why are you crying on such a happy day? Besides, with so many people watching, aren't you ashamed?"

Looking at Han Tao and Zhu Suosuo, the three people in the room were envious and jealous!

Not to mention Xu Yun and the girl from the property management, even the guy from the legal department wanted to replace Suosuo with himself.

But they really didn't expect that Han Tao and Zhu Suosuo had not even gotten married yet, but he would give half of the property worth 60 million yuan to his girlfriend.

Especially Xu Yun, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "If it were me, let alone being his girlfriend, she wouldn't even blink an eye even if she became his mistress!"

Just like that, after a while, when Zhu Suosuo's emotions had stabilized, Han Tao instructed her to fill in the relevant information in the blanks of the contract and the supplementary agreement, then reviewed it again. After confirming that everything was correct, he handed it to the legal officer and said to the three people:

"No problem, keep it! Thank you all for your hard work today. I'll give everyone housewarming red envelopes later!"

"Mr. Han, you're so polite. This is what we should do. I'd like to congratulate you two on your new home. Thank you for choosing Binjiang Yipin. We won't bother you anymore. If you need anything, feel free to call me or the property management staff. See you next time!"

Xu Yun waved her hand to indicate that they were welcome, and then she took the property girl and the legal officer who had put away the contract, bowed, and turned to walk out.

Han Tao escorted the three to the door and politely said, "Thank you, Manager Xu, for your blessing. Thank you both for accompanying me. See you next time!"

"Mr. Han, please stay. I wish you a happy life. Goodbye!"

"goodbye!"

When Han Tao came back after closing the door, Zhu Suosuo looked at the mansion that she had never dared to dream of, and said excitedly: "Brother Han, I am so happy, it feels like a dream!

I can't wait to move in. How about we move in this afternoon?"

"Of course you can. The decoration here is ready for you to move in. Besides, this is your house. You can do whatever you want. Even if it means inviting your aunt and her family or Nansun to live with you!"

Han Tao nodded, responding to Zhu Suosuo's happy eyes. However, after thinking it over again and again, he still suggested:

"But moving into a new house requires preparations. Why not wait a few more days until you've met your uncle? I'll pick you up from my uncle's house then, and that'll give the property management a chance to arrange everything in advance!"

Hearing this, Zhu Suosuo nodded embarrassedly and said:

"Well, I'll listen to Brother Han. I was just too excited and lost my composure. I have to prepare myself anyway.

And we have to choose a good day. This is my first house in my life, and the first home that belongs entirely to me!"

"Okay, that's settled."

Han Tao nodded and continued, "By the way, Suosuo, take another look and see if you need anything else. We don't have any daily necessities here. Go back and take a look, then place an order and have it delivered by a nearby mall."

"Okay, I get it. Please sit down for a while, Brother Han. I'll take a good look. Otherwise, I have to go see Dad later and won't have time to count today!"

After saying that, Zhu Suosuo turned around and left the living room and walked into the master bedroom to check.

He counted as he walked, and then used his mobile phone to search for nearby department stores, intending to order a full set of daily necessities and other things directly online.

Chapter 160 Buying Gifts

At 11:00 AM, in the VIP area of ​​the Vacheron Constantin counter on the first floor of Building D at Shanghai International Finance Center, Han Tao pointed to a watch in front of him and said to Jiang Yao, a saleswoman in a black dress, "Take this pair of couple watches. Put the others away!"

"Okay, sir, you have a really good eye. The design of this couple's watch is inspired by a beautiful love story, and it represents love, understanding, and companionship.

This pair of watches is also the latest model in the Traditionnelle series and can definitely be called a timeless classic.

Salesperson Jiang Yao smiled throughout the whole process and introduced the products in a gentle voice.

Zhu Suosuo was more concerned about the price of this couple's watch. She was really afraid that Han Tao would not take the money seriously, so she asked:

"Excuse me, how much is this couple's watch?"

"Don't bother, Miss Zhu. Mr. Han chose this pair of couple's watches. The men's watch is priced at 268000 yuan, and the women's watch is 228000 yuan, for a total of 496000 yuan!"

Salesperson Jiang Yao listed the price of the pair of watches in detail, then looked at Han Tao and Zhu Suosuo with a smile.

Han Tao knew why Zhu Suosuo asked this, so he said calmly to the salesperson Jiang Yao, "This is it. Please pack it up!"

After saying that, he handed over a black and gold bank card. Actually, Han Tao had originally planned to buy a pair of more expensive ones, but seeing Zhu Suosuo's expression, he was afraid that she would disagree, so he just asked for this pair of cheaper entry-level watches.

"Brother Han, why did you buy it? I don't need a watch right now. Didn't you give me a Patek Philippe before?"

Zhu Suosuo saw that he was just as she expected, and it was indeed not just a casual look, so she hurriedly asked, and raised her wrist and shook it while speaking.

Han Tao smiled and said, "This isn't for you. This is a gift for the Mayila that your uncle told you about. Consider it a wedding gift!"

"No, it's too expensive. Didn't I just buy a scarf and a wallet as gifts? Actually, my dad is very casual. Even if it's just some cakes and fruits, it's no big deal."

Although she was very happy when Han Tao said it was a gift for his father, she was still reluctant to give it away.

Han Tao always spends hundreds of thousands of dollars at a time. Zhu Suo feels that he will never be able to repay Han Tao's love for him in this lifetime.

"That was a wedding gift, how can it be compared to this? Besides, your uncle is your father, so it's only natural for a boyfriend like me to show some respect to them, right?

Besides, this little money is nothing to me, so just listen to me and don't worry about the money!"

Han Tao ignored Zhu Suosuo's obstruction and directly signaled the sales girl to swipe the card and issue the invoice.

Seeing that she couldn't stop it, Zhu Suosuo could only choose to accept it. However, when the two of them walked out of the mall with the gift bags, Zhu Suosuo no longer felt the entanglement and reluctance she had just felt.

Instead, she happily hugged Han Tao's arm and smiled brightly, because she knew in her heart that Han Tao cared about her and his family, so she was very happy.

With Han Tao's encouragement, Zhu Suosuo drove the Panamera nervously all the way to the agreed Yiyuen Restaurant. At this time, Zhu Suosuo's father had already arrived and was flirting with a foreign woman.

Seeing this, Zhu Suosuo whispered to Han Tao that the woman was her stepmother, Mayila.

Seeing Han Tao and Zhu Suosuo entering the box, Zhu's father and his newlywed wife Mayila stood up to greet them. After Zhu Suosuo's introduction, the few of them exchanged some greetings and sat down one after another.

Looking at Mr. Zhu's casual attitude and the young Mayila beside him, Han Tao handed over the menu of Yiyuan Restaurant and said:

"Uncle, this is Mayila's first time in Shanghai, and I think I have to try some Chinese food to make this trip worthwhile.

So I chose Yiyuan, which is famous for its Cantonese cuisine and hairy crabs, and is considered a favorite crab spot by many gourmets in Shanghai."

"That's great, thank you so much, Han Tao. I've wanted to try the food from Harry's hometown for a long time, but I just got off the plane yesterday and my appetite isn't very good. I'll definitely try it today."

Mayira was particularly happy when talking about food, and since she was not very old, her expression was very energetic.

When Mr. Zhu heard Mayila say this, he kissed her happily, then nodded to Han Tao and said,

"Maira and I work on cruise ships all year round, so we eat mostly Western food. Now that we're back in Shanghai, it's a good time to change our taste. Just make the arrangements as you see fit!"

Seeing that Zhu Suosuo's father had put down the menu while talking, as if to leave it entirely to him, Han Tao nodded and directly called the waiter.

"Mr. Han, after receiving your order, I personally selected the crabs, each of which is of the highest quality.

I'll make sure you, Miss Zhu, and the two guests are satisfied. As for the other dishes, I'll pair them for you, or you can order them yourself!"

Upon seeing this, Manager Zhang from Yiyuen hurried over and asked Han Tao about his request.

Han Tao smiled at him and said, "Thank you, Manager Zhang, you're so polite. Now that everything has been arranged, I'll leave it to you!"

"Okay, then I'll tell you about the dishes. If there's anything you're allergic to, I can change it for you!"

After saying this, the Yiyuan manager saw Han Tao, Zhu Suosuo and others nodding, and said:

"In addition to the hairy crab, I've prepared for you the main courses of pan-fried marbled beef with black pine mushrooms, braised fish maw with sea cucumber, three-cup silver cod, and steamed deep-sea tiger grouper.

Side dishes include crab meat tofu, crab legs and asparagus stir-fry, snow crab fritters, and crab meat shrimp. Cold dishes include Gold Medal Crispy Duck, Old Shanghai Smoked Fish, Hongyun Braised Food Platter, and Lemongrass Crispy Shatin Pigeon.

The sweet soup is mango sago, rice milk and almond tea, and the main course is the signature butter rice and crab meat dumplings. Are these all okay with you?

Listening to Manager Zhang's introduction, Mayila asked in surprise: "Isn't that too much?"

"Mayila, this isn't a standard 16 dishes, it's just right!"

Han Tao smiled and when he saw that no one had any other requests, he politely told Manager Zhang that he could start making arrangements.

After he and the waiter left, Han Tao took out the gift he had just chosen, handed it to Zhu Suosuo's father and Mayila, and said with a smile:

"Uncle, Mayila, this is our first meeting, and it's your big day, so I bought you some gifts. I hope you like them."

After receiving Han Tao's gift, Zhu's father and Mayila first opened the gift box containing the wallet and scarf. When they saw the high-quality silk scarf and Gucci wallet, they both expressed that they liked it very much.

But when they opened the last gift box, they saw two Heritage series couple watches from Vacheron Constantin, the world's second-largest watch brand. They were a little surprised and said jokingly:

"Xiao Han, your gift is too expensive! It's even more expensive than the diamond ring I gave to Mayila. I can't accept it!"

After saying that, without waiting for Han Tao's response, he looked at Mayila and continued, "But considering that you are my future son-in-law, as long as Mayila likes it, I won't bother with you, haha!"

Mayi rolled her eyes at Zhu's father, then looked at the watch in the box and said happily, "Han Tao, thank you and Suosuo for your gift. Harry and I like it very much, but we think it's a little too expensive!"

"Uncle, please don't be polite. I heard from Suosuo that you guys will go away after taking the wedding photos and get married directly on a trip, so it doesn't count as not having a wedding, so I specially chose this gift.

I think its value lies in its value as long as you like it, otherwise it is just a tool to tell time.

In my heart, this gift is far from enough to express my gratitude. The reason why Suosuo is so outstanding now is all because of his uncle's training!"

Chapter 161 First Meeting with Zhu Suosuo's Father

Hearing Han Tao's words, Father Zhu nodded with satisfaction and said thoughtfully:

"Xiao Han, I know you are very outstanding, with a strong fortune and assets, and you are willing to spend money on Suosuo. I am very happy about this.

I know I'm not very capable as a father, and I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a father in the past sixteen years. I feel deeply ashamed. From now on, Suosuo will be handed over to you. I hope you will always cherish and love her."
