"Congratulations, Sister Ru, you're amazing. Another apartment sold."
"Exactly, Sister Ru is worthy of being our sales department's top salesperson. It looks like you'll be the sales champion again this month."
"Of course, if I could have even a tenth of Sister Ru's skill, I'd be overjoyed."
"Sister Ru, you made so much commission, you have to treat us to a big meal."
After helping Manager Zhang sign the purchase contract and sending him off, Sister Ru was immediately surrounded by everyone in the sales office as soon as she returned to the hall.
They all spoke at once, their flattery making Sister Ru beam with joy.
"Oh, everyone, don't say that, you're making me too embarrassed. Xiao Di, go order some milk tea and afternoon tea, it's my treat."
With everyone's praise and compliments, Sister Ru's earlier feelings of disgust from being leered at by that old man, Manager Zhang, for so long finally eased up considerably.
To outsiders, Sister Ru was a top salesperson, consistently ranking in the top three of the sales office each month. But only Sister Ru knew the sacrifices she made for her performance.
At first, Sister Ru found it difficult to get past it mentally, but after receiving six-figure commissions, she quickly came to terms with it.
If you want to live well, wear branded clothes, carry designer bags, and use high-end cosmetics, you need a lot of money. And all she had to do was make a small sacrifice to exchange for substantial commissions. There was nothing wrong with that.
"Zhou Li, did I hear that right? You said your client wants to buy Villa Number Three?"
Just as Sister Ru was basking in the crowd's adulation, a gasp rang out from not far away.
Hearing the gasp, Sister Ru and the others turned to look.
"Yes, the client is waiting to sign the contract, please help me..."
Zhou Li nodded, but before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted.
"Zhou Li, you said your client wants to buy Villa Number Three?"
The one who interrupted her was none other than Sister Ru, who had just sold an apartment.
The cheapest villa at Pinggao Huafu cost over ten million yuan. Villas One to Three were the kings among villas, priced at over thirty million yuan.
Furthermore, the commission for selling villas was different from selling ordinary houses; it was ten percent.
If Zhou Li's client truly bought a villa, wouldn't Zhou Li receive a commission of three million yuan?
Her own twenty thousand yuan commission was quite substantial, but compared to three million, Sister Ru's mood immediately plummeted.
But it shouldn't be this way. A client who could afford to spend thirty million on a villa shouldn't fall to Zhou Li. And earlier, she seemed to be showing a family of three ordinary residences.
"Yes, it's the same client that Sister Ru just asked me to assist."
Hearing Sister Ru's question, Zhou Li immediately nodded.
The client she had just asked Zhou Li to assist?
The thought of her misjudging the situation, and this three-million-yuan commission slipping through her fingers to be taken by this lucky dog, Zhou Li, made Sister Ru's heart feel like ten thousand alpacas were stampeding through it.
Three million yuan! That was equivalent to her sales for half a year. Sister Ru regretted it immensely.
"However, saying 'buy' might not be entirely accurate. It should be 'given'."
Zhou Li suddenly remembered that the villa Du Fei had chosen was a gift from Fang Chao, so she spoke again.
Sister Ru was still lamenting her misfortune. Hearing Zhou Li speak again, she couldn't help but pause.
"Given? Zhou Li, what do you mean?"
The others were equally confused.
Zhou Li then briefly recounted what had just happened.
"Holy cow, Zhou Li, are you stupid? Villa Number Three is worth over thirty million yuan. Besides the boss, who has the right to just give it away?"
"Exactly, who is Hu Zhipeng? I've been in this sales office for so long, and I've never heard that name before."
"Don't tell me you were tricked, Zhou Li. Fortunately, you didn't get the contract for it, or you would have been in big trouble."
For a moment, everyone who heard Zhou Li's description thought she was talking nonsense.
Besides their boss, who else had the right to give away Villa Number Three?
If the boss were coming, they would have been notified in advance. The manager hadn't mentioned anything about it today.
Subsequently, Sister Ru, along with Zhou Li, found Du Fei, who was sitting in the lounge area.
As it was nearing noon, and the rental house wasn't too far from here, Wu Chunmei suggested that she and Du Yunyun buy some groceries on their way and then go home to cook.
Du Fei nodded, told them to be careful on the road, and then sat in the lounge area, waiting for Zhou Li to get the contract.
Unexpectedly, when Zhou Li returned, she was empty-handed, and Sister Ru, whom they had seen before, walked in with her.
"Is there a problem?"
Du Fei saw the two of them approaching, and Sister Ru had a stern expression.
Zhou Li looked embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, client, Sister Ru said..."
"Excuse me, client. I'd like to confirm again. Did Zhou Li just say someone is gifting you a villa in our Pinggao Huafu?"
Du Fei nodded. "Yes, that's right."
"Heh heh, client, there must be some misunderstanding here. Villa Number Three is worth over thirty million yuan. How could someone just give it to you for no reason? Besides, I've never heard the name Zhou Li mentioned earlier."
Sister Ru chuckled. She immediately suspected that Du Fei had orchestrated a charade to trick Zhou Li.
Otherwise, how could she explain what Zhou Li was saying?
Besides their boss, who else had the right to gift Villa Number Three to Du Fei?
"Sister Ru, I heard very clearly. That person did say they would give Villa Number Three..."
"Shut up! This is not your place to speak!"
Zhou Li tried to explain what she had witnessed, but Sister Ru interrupted her on the spot.
Du Fei looked at Sister Ru. "Whether you believe it or not, this is the truth. Besides, do you think it's appropriate to treat someone this way?"
"How I treat Zhou Li is my business. Client, if you have no other needs, please leave."
As soon as Sister Ru heard Du Fei trying to tell her what to do, she directly asked him to leave.
She already felt that Du Fei's family of three didn't seem like they were here to buy a house. Now, with this business about someone gifting him a thirty-million-yuan villa, Sister Ru became even more convinced that this guy had some ulterior motive.
"Forget it, I have nothing to say to you. I'll have someone else talk to you."
In such a public place as the sales office, Du Fei didn't want to argue with Sister Ru. Being pointed at and gossiped about was embarrassing.
So, he took out his phone and called Fang Chao.
On the phone, Du Fei didn't say much, only that there was a slight issue with the property procedures.
Upon hearing this, Fang Chao immediately stated that he would have someone handle it right away, as he had some matters to attend to and couldn't come over himself.
After receiving Fang Chao's reply, Du Fei hung up the phone.
"Someone will be here shortly to help me sort out the procedures. You don't need to worry about anything else."
"Heh heh, alright. I'll wait and see how you explain yourself later."
In Sister Ru's eyes, Du Fei's call was just a way to save face. Perhaps he hadn't even made the call.
She had already planned to call over her colleagues from the sales office and the security guards to humiliate Du Fei. As for Zhou Li, it wouldn't hurt to let her leave early.
