Chapter 112 Enjoy the Cool Weather and Ask for Debt
Song Xi had saved up a lot of things to talk to George Sheng about the recent incidents. Of course, just calling him had delayed Song Xi for a day or two. She didn't blame her, it was every day. The first time she talked to George Sheng, his cold tone made her scalp tingle. He didn't have to say that he disliked her, but it was already obvious, so she was really not happy to find him unless necessary.
Finally finding a sunny day with birds singing and flowers fragrant at noon, Song Xi stood by the window and let the dazzling sunlight shine on her body. It didn't matter if it was hot now, it would be cold later.
Taking her mobile phone, she found George Sheng's phone number, and without giving herself a chance to retreat, she gritted her teeth and stamped her feet, dialing out.
The phone was pressed against my ear, and the beeping sound seemed to be my own heartbeat.
Song Xi was confused. She had never been afraid of anyone since she was a child. Why was she so afraid of George Sheng? He had never beaten her.
She hopes to get through, but also hopes that she can't get through. Most people really can't understand this emotion.
There were five or six beeps, and suddenly a man's low and cold voice came from the phone: "Hello."
Song Xi was excited and immediately said, "It's me."
"Yeah." George Sheng didn't even open his mouth.
Song Xi could imagine the expression on his face, which was more indifferent than impatient.
She didn't dare to delay him for too long, so she quickly got to the point, "Do you have time tonight? I have something to tell you."
George Sheng answered neatly, "No time, I'm not in Night City."
Not in Night City?
This was a possibility that Song Xi had not thought of. Just as she was hesitating, George Sheng asked, "What's the matter?"
Some things should be said in person to avoid misunderstandings. Song Xi replied: "We won't talk on the phone anymore. Let's wait until you come back."
George Sheng still only had one word: "Yeah."
Song Xi said: "Then you are busy, I won't disturb you anymore."
George Sheng hung up the phone directly.
Finally, she didn't have to hear his voice anymore, and she didn't have to force herself to be mentally disturbed. The moment Song Xi took back the phone, she even felt that it was okay not to say some words, and it was over after just holding it back. This shows how much pressure it is to talk to George Sheng. How big.
George Sheng was not in Night City, and Song Xi felt inexplicably relaxed, as if a child who wanted to do bad things just happened to catch up with his parents on a business trip, and he couldn't be too comfortable.
She went out to find Han Chunmeng, thinking that she would call Gu Dongxu later and the three of them would have a meal together in the evening.
She asked as she walked along. When Song Xi found Han Chunmeng, Han Chunmeng was hiding in a corner talking on the phone. Her tone was unhappy and helpless, "How can you do this? You have to give people some time to relax, right?"
When Song Xi heard this, he immediately looked nervous and stepped forward.
When Han Chunmeng saw Song Xi, her expression softened slightly. Song Xi asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Han Chunmeng mouthed: Landlord.
Song Xi understood that Han Chunmeng was renting a house in Yecheng. Hearing this, he probably had a conflict with the landlord.
Sure enough, Han Chunmeng stood in the corner with his back to Song Xi. He paused for a moment and suddenly said emotionally: "What do you mean? Now it's obviously your breach of contract. If you dare to touch my things, I will sue you immediately!"
Seeing that the noise was getting worse, Song Xi couldn't help but step forward and put his hand on Han Chunmeng's shoulder. The phone was close, and a woman's aggressive voice came from inside, "Anyway, I've made it clear to you, you have to move out today, big deal" I will pay you half a month's rent, and I will collect the house tomorrow morning. Let's not make things difficult for each other, and I don't want to bully you, a little girl..."
Han Chunmeng became anxious, tears quickly welled up in her eyes, and she was too anxious to speak.
Song Xi took the phone and said, "Hello."
The woman inside paused, "Who are you?"
Song Xi said: "I am Han Chunmeng's friend and a lawyer. If you have anything to say, you can tell me."
The woman sneered and said: "Ha, the lawyers are here? Are you trying to scare me?"
Song Xi calmly replied: "Madam, my friend rented the house from a formal channel, and it was clearly written in white and black. Now there is no forced renting and forced eviction. If you force my friend to move out, you will either lose money. , or file a lawsuit, you won’t be able to get this house by yourself in a short time.”
The woman saw that Song Xi was not arrogant or impetuous, and was quite businesslike. She said loudly: "I'm really in a hurry, otherwise I wouldn't have troubled her as a little girl. I told her just now that she was half the opposite." monthly rent.”
Song Xi said: "It's not even the middle of the month yet, but you're violating my friend's half-month's rent, but you're breaking the contract and my friend is paying for it?"
When the woman heard this, she paused for a few seconds, and then said: "Oh, okay, okay, consider me a loss, can I pay her one month's rent in return?"
Song Xi said: "You broke the contract and ordered you to move out. If we want to sue you to the relevant departments, you will not be able to rent this house out for rent in the future."
The woman suddenly became furious, "I've already paid one month's rent, what else do you want? You can't go too far!"
Song Xi said calmly: "I'm telling you the same thing. You can't go too far as a person. What's the point of bullying a little girl? Just one sentence and let her move, she only has one night." Who will pay for the losses and labor? One month's rent is what you should return, don't take it for granted as charity."
The woman asked: "What do you want?"
Song Xi said: "Compensation for two months' rent."
The woman immediately refused sternly, "No way!"
Song Xi said: "It's also impossible to let her move out. How about you dare to touch her things? I guarantee you will pay more."
There was back and forth between the two sides, with the woman playing the good role first and then the bad side. Song Xi always had the same tone, and the standards were the bottom line and there was no room for negotiation.
After grinding for a long time, the woman finally lost the battle and said sadly: "Okay, it's just two months' rent, but as agreed, we'll pack up tonight and I'll go collect the house tomorrow."
Song Xi said: "Contact Han Chunmeng and send her the money. We will move now."
Song Xi hung up the phone and looked sideways at Han Chunmeng. She thought she would cry, but she opened her big bright eyes and asked confidently: "How is it? What did she say?"
Song Xi said: "Promise to pay two months' rent, and she will contact you later to send money."
Han Chunmeng's eyes lit up, "Two months of compensation? Is it true or false?"
As she was talking, a text message came in from her phone. It was the landlord asking for her card number.
Han Chunmeng sent it neatly, and not long after, the landlord replied: The money has been sent, please check it.
In less than a minute, a text message came to my phone to remind me of the balance change, and there was an extra 6,600 yuan on it.
Han Chunmeng was so happy when he saw the money. Song Xi glanced at him and said, "What's so beautiful? We have to move again."
Han Chunmeng said with a smile: "It feels like this money is blown by the strong wind. Let's go. I'll treat you tonight and call Dongxu to celebrate my move."
Song Xi couldn't help laughing, "You want to use him as a coolie again, right?"
Han Chunmeng blinked, "You can't be broken even if it's difficult."
