Chapter 74 The Struggles of Renting a House

“May I know what your requirements are?” the salesperson asked. His attitude didn’t change just because Christopher was renting a house and not buying one. “No particular requirements, as long as it’s clean and tidy. The most important thing is safety. Of course, it would be better if it could be on Bulliard Street!” The Serenade was on Bulliard Street. If he could rent a house there, it would undoubtedly be much more convenient for when he went to work in the future. “Please wait for a moment!” After learning about Christopher’s request, the salesperson searched for relevant housing listing information on the computer. After about five minutes, the salesperson seemed to have found a house that met Christopher’s requirements. He said to Christopher, “There’s a house that meets your requirements at No. 360, Bulliard Street, Fairview District. The owner stated that it could be sold or rented, but the rent may be a little expensive.” “How much is the rent?” Christopher asked nonchalantly. Money was what Christopher cared the least about right now. He was willing to spend tens of millions in exchange for Thumbs-Ups, which already showed his attitude about money. “12,000 per month,” the salesperson answered while looking at Christopher. “12,000!” Christopher hadn’t spoken, but Samantha, who was beside him, cried out in surprise when she heard the price. “Christopher, why don’t we rent another one? 12,000 is too expensive!” Although she knew that Christopher was very rich now, the rent was 12,000 a month. Samantha, who was always looking for ways to save money for him, still felt that it was a bit too expensive. “It’s okay!” As he lovingly patted Samantha’s head, Christopher said to the salesperson, “12,000 it is! Take me to see the house!” The speed at which Christopher made his decision was beyond the salesperson’s expectations. Seeing that Christopher wanted to go look at the house immediately after hearing the offer of 12,000 per month, he was overjoyed. If this deal was successful, he would certainly be able to get this month’s bonus. “This way, please!” the salesperson said to Christopher as he gestured respectfully. Under his guidance, Samantha and Christopher reached Fairview District in half an hour. They could tell from one glance that Fairview District was a place for the high society to live in. Unlike commercial houses built as part of the real estate assembly line, Fairview District was full of small two-story villas that had their own characteristics. Moreover, expensive luxury cars were parked in front of almost every villa; even the cheapest car was an Audi A8. It was pretty much a place where local tycoons gathered. The villa with house number 41 was the house that Christopher was planning to rent. “How is it? Are you satisfied?” the salesperson asked after taking Christopher and Samantha around upstairs and downstairs several times. He was fighting hard for his bonus this month. “It’s not bad!” Christopher nodded. He was indeed quite satisfied. The security system in this neighborhood was well-established. There were surveillance cameras everywhere, and security personnel patrolled 24 hours a day. There was no need to worry about safety issues at all. And most importantly, the bed was big enough! Later on, when Christopher and Samantha got down and dirty in bed, they wouldn’t have to worry about making excessive movements and falling to the ground. “Samantha, what do you think?” Christopher turned to ask Samantha, who was behind him. At present, Samantha’s eyes were sparkling. Initially, she wanted to help Christopher save money by not renting this house, but now, that notion had been completely discarded. She loved the decoration and style of this house. Now, she could only express her joy by nodding. “Okay. We’ll take this!” For his future sexual well-being, Christopher slapped his thighs firmly and made the decision. “All right!” The salesperson’s face was currently filled with delight. He had to strike the iron while it was hot, so he must quickly get this settled. Smiling, he took out the rental agreement from his briefcase before he handed a pen to Christopher and said, “Since the two of you are satisfied, should we sign the contract now?” “Of course,” Christopher replied. After retrieving the contract and the pen, he was about to write his name at the signature section for the first party on the last page when suddenly, the gruff voice of a middle-aged woman, who sounded like a castrated duck, rang in Christopher’s ears. The voice belonged to a woman in her fifties. She was obviously quite of age, but she still dressed up like a young girl as she had on a cute makeup style. No one knew where her confidence even came from. She was obviously plump, but she was wearing a pair of super short shorts. Coupled with her masculine face, the woman looked like a twisted version of Harley Quinn. At this moment, the clown-like woman was talking to the salesperson. “Harvey! How’s my house? Has it been sold? If no one buys it, it’s okay to rent it out. But I have to warn you that, although I urgently need to sell this house, if it’s being rented out, the price can’t be any lower than 12,000 a month! Moreover, my house can only be rented to those who have status, and must not be rented to random people with questionable backgrounds. Got it?” After she was done, she threw contemptuous glances at Christopher and Samantha before saying, “For example, this poor loser and the sl*tty girl next to him. You can tell they’re uneducated people at first glance, so you mustn’t rent the place to them. Understand?” When this middle-aged woman spoke, her tone was nothing short of condescending. It was as if she deemed herself the queen of some country! Originally, Christopher was fine, but when he heard the woman make those remarks, his expression changed in an instant, and he nearly lost his temper! Christopher wasn’t a petty person. He didn’t care if people called him a poor loser; this assumption wasn’t a new occurrence anyway. And although he now had the Thumbs-Up System, deep down, he was still a loser. However, Christopher couldn’t bear hearing Samantha being called sl*tty. She was a lovable girl, and she could be said to be the one untouchable thing in his heart! A sl*tty girl? You look more like one! Taking a step forward, he was about to say something, but the hem of his shirt was suddenly being tugged. He looked back and saw Samantha shaking her head with her lips pursed. “Forget it!” Samantha whispered to him. “Don’t be angry. It’s just a small matter.” “But—” Christopher wanted to say something more, but Samantha gave her head a firm shake.“Deep breaths!” Knowing that Samantha didn’t want him to have a dispute with the woman because of this trivial matter, Christopher suppressed the anger in his heart and took a deep breath. Right now, his expression wasn’t pleasant, and so was that of the salesperson, whose name was Harvey Flint. He never expected that such an incident would happen when the contract was close to being signed. One was the person who wanted to rent the house, while the other was the person renting out the house. Harvey, as the middleman, couldn’t afford to offend either side, so he could only smile at the woman, whose name was Isabella Langford, and say, “Well, Ms. Langford, unfortunately, this gentleman is the one who wants to rent your house.” “He wants to rent my house?” Hearing what Harvey said, Isabella cackled, as if she had just heard a ridiculous joke. “Can he even afford it?”
