Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

At this time, Zhong Xiaoyang pulled her back, then called the courier and said:

"Brother, I'll give you fifteen, one of you brothers can run the errand for me!"

"No, your floors are too high. This trip will cost me a job!"

The two couriers looked at Zhong Xiaoyang and shook their heads.

Zhong Xiaoyang raised the price directly: "Then I'll give you twenty, WeChat transfer!"

"Okay, deal!"

One of the couriers nodded in agreement and took the package from him.

Seeing this, Zhong Xiaoqin also walked over. She really didn't want to climb the stairs. Running up and down the stairs was too tiring.

But before she could say anything, another courier took the initiative and said, "Sister, your ninth floor will cost at least fifteen!"

Zhong Xiaoyang smiled inwardly and whispered, "Just spend a little. I finally got the elder brother to agree to this!"

Zhong Xiaoqin glanced at the little brat beside her and felt a little embarrassed because there were only six yuan left in his phone, which was not enough to pay, so he replied angrily:

"No, I can crawl. It's a good exercise!"

"Come on, sister, climbing stairs is so tiring. We don't know how many packages are waiting for us. Let's save some energy if we can!

Why, you don't even have fifteen dollars?"

Zhong Xiaoyang stopped her again. When he was paying for breakfast with Zhong Xiaoqin in the morning, he found that there were only more than 20 yuan in Zhong Xiaoqin's mobile phone, and there was not much left after paying, so he did it on purpose.

He fell in love with Zhong Xiaoqin from the first time they met, especially her baby face. Although she was married, her energy was still very attractive.

Although he already knew that Zhong Xiaoqin was married, he felt that there was still a chance.

As long as the hoe is used well, there is no wall that cannot be dug down. Just like now, this is an opportunity for contact and also an opportunity to improve their relationship.

"What do you care!" Zhong Xiaoqin retorted unhappily.

Just when she was embarrassed and angry, Han Tao had already entered the hall, just in time to hear the conversation between the two, and said, "Miss Zhong, what a coincidence!"

"Hello, Mr. Han, is there anything I can help you with?"

Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Han Tao and asked with a smile,

She had a very good impression of this client who provided her with a commission of more than 100,000 yuan. Although the commission would not be paid until next month, she could not forget this favor!

"Nothing much, just checking to see how the room is cleaned. If everything is ok, I'll move right in!"

After saying this, Han Tao looked at the courier beside him and said:

"I have something to ask this lady. Could you please help deliver her package?"

As soon as Han Tao finished speaking, Yang Dongxu behind him didn't wait for the courier to express his opinion. He handed over a hundred yuan in cash and said:

"No need to change. If there's a courier from your company today, just deliver it. If not, just consider it a tip."

"Thank you, sir!"

The courier accepted it happily. After all, they only made a few dollars from delivering a package, and such a generous customer was rare.

Zhong Xiaoqin was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Han Tao to help her again. It wasn't until the courier took the package from her that she reacted and said:

"Mr. Han, how can you be so embarrassed? Actually, I can deliver it myself."

"Don't be polite. Tell me about the cleanup. The elevator is broken, so I'll go up another day."

Han Tao looked at Zhong Xiaoqin with a smile and changed the subject to ease her embarrassment.

Zhong Xiaoqin glanced at Han Tao embarrassedly and replied:

"Everything has been cleaned up. I asked the property management staff to clean inside and out. They also carried out disinfection, sterilization, ventilation and other measures during the process."

"Okay, thank you so much, Miss Zhong. I'm sorry for your trouble!" Han Tao smiled and thanked him.

Zhong Xiaoqin shook her head: "Mr. Han is too polite, this is what I should do.

Come to think of it, I should be the one thanking you, how about I treat you guys to a meal?"

After saying this, Zhong Xiaoqin felt a little regretful and couldn't help but complain: "This is so embarrassing!"

She was not embarrassed to invite Han Tao to dinner, but because she remembered after she said it that she had no money, not even a dozen yuan for running errands.

"We can have dinner together, but not today. You're still working overtime this Saturday, so I won't disturb you. Let's do it another day!"

Han Tao also noticed her embarrassment and embarrassment, and since he had plans for today, he tactfully declined the proposal.

Zhong Xiaoqin nodded happily, then looked at Han Tao gratefully and said:

"Okay, wait until I give you the bonus and send you a message. If you have time, don't refuse!"

"Okay, we'll make an appointment when Miss Zhong is off. I won't disturb you from working today. I'm leaving now. Bye!"

Han Tao nodded, said goodbye, and turned around and left with Yang Dongxu.

"Goodbye Mr. Han!"

Zhong Xiaoqin bowed to Han Tao's back, then stood up and waved.

Han Tao did not respond and went straight out of the Grand Hyatt lobby.

He really felt sad for Zhong Xiaoqin. After all, she had been working for several years and was a native of Shanghai, but she didn't even have a few dozen dollars on hand.

Han Tao remembered that there was a scene in the drama where the couple was getting divorced. When the staff from the Civil Affairs Bureau asked about the savings, Zhong Xiaoqin was confused. She had no idea how much savings the family had accumulated in the more than three years since they got married.

From the first day of their marriage, Zhong Xiaoqin handed over all her salary to her husband, Chen Yu. Chen Yu never reported the family savings to her, let alone his job or salary.

Another thing happened just now. Zhong Xiaoqin was just found out to be pregnant, so the marketing department sent her and Zhong Xiaoyang to help deliver express to the front desk.

Zhong Xiaoqin is reluctant to climb stairs. You know, you can't do such strenuous exercises in the early stages of pregnancy.

Zhong Xiaoyang suggested that the courier help deliver the package, and he only had to pay a fee of 10 to 20 yuan.

Zhong Xiaoqin reluctantly refused the courier and insisted on climbing the stairs to deliver the package herself. In fact, she only had a few yuan left in her wallet and could not afford the 15 yuan errand fee.

Another time, Zhong Xiaoqin had a company dinner and she wanted Chen Yu to pick her up, but Chen Yu only gave her 200 yuan for a taxi fare.

From this, it can be seen that Zhong Xiaoqin does not save money on a daily basis, and does not even have a few hundred yuan in pocket money.

Even though Chen Yu felt that Zhong Xiaoqin was not good at managing money, he was the one who held both of their salary cards.

He felt that Zhong Xiaoqin had her own meals at home, and that Zhong Xiaoqin's parents took care of him when he was on a business trip, so she had no place to spend money.

That doesn't mean she has no use for the money, does it? After all, Zhong Xiaoqin is almost thirty years old, and giving her only two hundred yuan in pocket money a month is not enough.

This is such a double standard. He doesn't feel bad about spending money on raising and buying fish, and he also has to give living expenses to his mother and brother.

Why didn't he think about the fact that his brother was already in his twenties and could take care of himself? Besides, it was Zhong Xiaoqin who helped him find his brother's job.

Not only that, Chen Yu still dislikes Zhong Xiaoqin's parents and has to cook for them two days a week.

They felt that her parents interfered too much in their lives and that Zhong Xiaoqin always needed someone to take care of her like a child who had not grown up.

He never considered why Zhong Xiaoqin's parents not only cooked for them two days a week but also prepared a lot of ingredients.

If he wasn't busy with work and taking care of his fish every day and didn't care about the other person's daughter's life at all, would the two old people be so worried?

...............

Chapter 113 Zhong Xiaoqin's Enlightenment

Because Han Tao helped pay for the express delivery, Zhong Xiaoqin finally breathed a sigh of relief. She felt relieved and grateful that she finally didn't have to climb the stairs.

But before she could sit down, two more express deliveries arrived, one for the 17th floor and one for the 16th floor. This made Zhong Xiaoyang, who was standing by, laugh. He was just about to laugh at the joke.

Unexpectedly, the courier who had received the tip from Yang Dongxu just came down. Seeing this scene, he had no choice but to take the package from the 16th floor and ran to deliver it again.

Zhong Xiaoyang, looking at the courier who came up the stairs again, complained with displeasure:

"What era is it still worth tipping? What are you doing here, you nosy guy!"

"Zhong Xiaoyang, stop talking nonsense. Mr. Han is the owner of the 20th floor. If people hear you talking like that, how will they view our Junyue Mansion's property management staff?"

Xiao Zhao at the front desk heard this and warned Zhong Xiaoyang before he could finish speaking.

Grand Hyatt Residences is one of the top properties in Shanghai, and service is its main focus, so the property staff are all strictly trained. It is taboo to talk about the owners behind their backs in the lobby.

Zhong Xiaoyang, however, looked indifferent and said with disdain: "Come on, Brother Zhao, there's no one else here, who are you flattering for?"

"Xiaoyang, I think you're quite smart, so I'm telling you this, don't be ungrateful.

Mr. Han is a very easygoing person and generous. If the manager heard what you just said, you will be in big trouble!

After saying that, Xiao Zhao ignored him, said hello to Zhong Xiaoqin and said he would help keep an eye on the place for a while, then left.

Zhong Xiaoyang was upset after being criticized, but his target was Zhong Xiaoqin. He wanted to take advantage of her financial difficulties to make trouble, so he said:

"Haha, I finally understand now. It turns out that my sister was just out of money! It seems that I misunderstood. I thought my sister really wanted to exercise!"

"Who doesn't have money? It's just twenty yuan, who doesn't have that little money?

As for you, please send the one on the 17th floor quickly. If you don’t have money, I can treat you!”

When Zhong Xiaoqin saw him teasing her, she retorted without thinking, but this naive man actually dug a hole for himself.

Zhong Xiaoyang is such a smart guy, he immediately took advantage of the situation and said:

"Okay, thank you, sister. Thank you for your generosity!"

"you…"

Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Zhong Xiaoyang with a look that seemed to want to eat him, then hesitated for a moment and said to the courier:

"Excuse me, wait a moment, I have a call!"

After saying that, she pretended to answer the phone and ran to the corridor to call her husband Chen Yu.

But Chen Yu didn't answer the phone at all. She sent a voice message but he didn't reply. She didn't know whether he couldn't answer the phone because he was on a business trip or for some other reason.

"Gu Gu, I have something urgent to do and I don't have enough money. Can you transfer 200 yuan to me?"

Zhong Xiaoqin had no choice but to send a message to Gu Jia. When she saw that she didn't reply, she called her again, intending to ask her best friend Jianghu for help.

However, Gu Jia had already left home and climbed the stairs to Mrs. Wang's house on the 21st floor. Because she was in a hurry to meet her, she left her cell phone at home.

Zhong Xiaoqin felt extremely embarrassed at the thought of being laughed at by that little brat Zhong Xiaoyang, and a feeling of disgust rose in her heart.

However, just when she was feeling extremely sad and embarrassed, the message alert sounded.

Zhong Xiaoqin clicked on it and saw that it was a transfer message and a voice message. The total amount of the transfer was two thousand yuan. She clicked on the voice message with confusion and doubt.

Han Tao's voice came from the phone: "Hello, Miss Zhong, I am Han Tao.

I need to trouble you with two things. One is to notify me when the elevator is repaired, and the other is to order a bouquet of flowers for me tomorrow.

The extra money is for the errands you took to find the cleaning staff and order the flowers!"

After the voice message ended, Zhong Xiaoqin was stunned for a moment, then quickly replied:

"Mr. Han, these are what I should do. How can I take your money?"

Han Tao looked at Zhong Xiaoqin's message and smiled, "Don't be polite. Nothing is a given. You should get something in return for your efforts. The money isn't much, so don't refuse it, unless you think it's too little."

"Well...Okay, Mr. Han, I'll keep it for now. After I finish ordering flowers tomorrow, I'll transfer whatever is left to you."

After saying that, Zhong Xiaoqin smiled happily. Now she had money, at least she could deal with the current things. When she got home in the evening, she would ask her mother for some and then return it to Mr. Han.

However, her good impression of Han Tao improved a lot. In her heart, he was simply her timely helper.

With the money, she no longer worried. She went back to the front desk and said to the anxious courier:

"Sorry to waste your time. Come, I'll transfer it to you via WeChat!"

As he spoke, he opened his phone, scanned the code and transferred the money, then looked at Zhong Xiaoyang proudly.

"What a coincidence that my sister called. Could she be going out to borrow money?"

Zhong Xiaoyang said something in a sarcastic tone, then pursed his lips and took out his cell phone to play.

Zhong Xiaoqin glared at him, then sat down unhappily and said:

"Who borrowed the money? Why worry about it? Who cares? But you plan to stay like this all day!"

"Yup!"

Zhong Xiaoyang replied without even looking up and continued browsing his phone.

Zhong Xiaoqin curled her lips and said, "I haven't asked you to work seriously in all these days. I won't ask you to work again later!"
