Chapter 453 Look down on

In the early morning, the air near Ode to Joy is fresh, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

Lin Hao woke up on time thanks to his biological clock that he had maintained for so many years. He got up, drank a cup of warm water, changed into sportswear, and went downstairs for his daily morning exercises.

When the elevator door opened, Lin Hao saw Andy wearing sportswear, so he knew that she was also going downstairs to exercise.

Then the two looked at each other, and Lin Hao walked into the elevator without feeling awkward at all and said:

"Hello, see you again!"

"Hello, so you live on the 21st floor. No wonder you came to look for someone from 2203 last night!"

"There's nothing we can do. They were jumping around upstairs without any consideration as to whether other people would be affected!" Lin Hao said with a smile.

"It was quite noisy indeed!" Andy nodded in agreement.

For some reason, Andy originally wanted Tan Zongming to buy her a new house, but now she suddenly didn't want to change it anymore. She felt that this community was actually quite good.

After arriving on the first floor, Andy went to the park opposite the community to exercise. Lin Hao did not follow Andy like a dog.

Lin Hao ran a few laps in the community and exercised for about an hour. Then he found a place with few people, picked up a branch on the ground and waved it, using the branch instead of a sword to practice swordsmanship.

After all, he had gotten used to it over the years. After finishing work, Lin Hao threw away the branch and casually glanced at the bushes not far away.

After sweating all over, Lin Hao relaxed his muscles and walked back slowly. He also bought some breakfast at the breakfast shop at the entrance of the community.

While waiting for the elevator downstairs, I saw Andy coming back in sportswear.

"What a coincidence!"

"meet again!"

At this time, when the elevator was about to reach the first floor, Qiu Yingying's chattering voice came from inside.

When the elevator door opened, Qiu Yingying, Guan Juer, and Fan Shengmei looked at Lin Hao and Andy from inside.

But when the three of them looked at Lin Hao, they suddenly felt awkward and embarrassed, because they immediately thought of the beautiful dream they had last night.

"Good morning!" Lin Hao greeted them with a smile.

"Good morning, Brother Lin!"

"morning!"

"You're out exercising so early!"

Then when the three of them walked out of the elevator, he nodded to Andy again, and Lin Hao and Andy entered the elevator.

After the elevator closed, Lin Hao chatted with Andy for a few words and then returned to the 21st floor.

After Qiu Yingying and the other two left, they prepared to take the subway to work. All three of them were silent.

They could tell at a glance that Lin Hao and Andy had both returned from exercising outside, and judging by their appearances, they seemed to be having a good chat.

You have to know that Andy just moved in last night, and they knew Lin Hao a month ago.

If they didn't take action now, someone might get there first. Thinking of this, the three women looked at each other again, only to find that each other had raised their heads with a hint of lightning in their eyes.

After Qiu Yingying came to the company, her superior, Manager Bai, began to be courteous to her again. However, after Qiu Yingying compared Manager Bai with Brother Lin, she suddenly felt bored.

Therefore, she just dealt with it perfunctorily, but this made Manager Bai feel uncomfortable. This silly girl was easy to deceive before, but he didn't know why she suddenly ignored him.

But he did not give up and prepared to give it a try at night!
On the other side, Fan Shengmei, who came to the company, had Lin Hao in her mind, especially in her dream last night, when Lin Hao took her to various high-end places.

This is not the key point. The most important thing is that Lin Hao has agreed to go on a date with her this weekend.

Suddenly, Fan Shengmei slapped her forehead in annoyance:

"How could I be so stupid!"

Fan Shengmei suddenly thought, Lin Hao promised her to go to the bar, why did she arrange the meeting place in a bar? Obviously, they could go on a date alone!

But there is a saying that goes, if a woman doesn't get drunk, the man has no chance, but if she goes to the bar, she still has a chance.

It seems that I don’t need to try to pick the best when I go to the bar this time.

After Guan Juer arrived at the company, she handed over the translation folder in her hand and then let out a long sigh of relief. She had stayed up until one o'clock in the morning last night and finally finished translating the documents in her hand.

At the age of 500, she really started working and realized how difficult life was. As one of the Fortune companies, Morgan Stanley is considered a company with very good benefits in Shanghai.

But even so, overtime work is as common as eating and drinking. Recalling the good life in college, she just hopes that she will not die from overwork.

Her family is from Nantong. Her parents are civil servants. They used their connections to get her into this foreign company. As a graduate of an ordinary university, she has inherent disadvantages compared to those students who graduated from prestigious universities.

For example, among her batch of interns, there are several from Tsinghua University and Peking University, so if she wants to stay, she must be the early bird and make more efforts.

The appearance of Lin Hao brought troubles to her world. For example, she dreamed of Lin Hao last night, and even was with him~~~!

Thinking of this, Guan Juer's face turned red and she felt a little shaken. Then she absentmindedly thought about what happened after she and Brother Lin were together.

Actually, the dream I had last night was quite interesting. In the dream, I actually had a passionate love affair with Brother Lin. In the end, the two of us broke through the constraints of our families and finally bought a house in Shanghai and had a child.

"Hmm~! Why was there no marriage process in my dream last night?" Guan Juer thought absentmindedly at this time.

"Guan Guan, are you getting married?" A colleague nearby heard her mumbling and overheard it, then teased Guan Juer.

Guan Juer suddenly woke up, then rolled her eyes at her colleague, patted her face and said:
"What can I think about? I don't even have a boyfriend, how can I get married?"

Guan Juer then explained: "My neighbors were having a party last night, and it was so noisy that I couldn't translate the document..."

Just when everyone was busy at work, Qu Xiaoxiao, who was still in the Ode to Joy community, received a call from Yao Bin, saying that her brother had crashed a Lamborghini.

"What? Qu Lianjie's car was hit?" Qu Xiaoxiao woke up instantly.

"Yeah, it's going viral on Weibo. Aren't you going to be a promising young man?" Yao Bin then proudly reminded, "This is a great opportunity!"

"Ah~~~~!" Qu Xiaoxiao screamed piercingly, and then threw her phone on the bed. She definitely couldn't fall asleep again after this happened. In order to appear well-behaved and pragmatic in front of her father, she rushed home as soon as she finished washing up.

After finishing breakfast with her, we talked for a while. She didn't want a villa or a luxury car, but just wanted a small POLO car for buying groceries as a means of transportation, and also wanted her to be the boss of the branch.

After spending half a day at home, I finally got everything done. Qu's father only promised to make a decision when he arrived at the company on Monday.

······
It was the weekend and Guan Juer was working overtime. When Qiu Yingying returned to room 2202, she found that the door of room 2202 was not closed.

After entering the room, I found Fan Shengmei was dressing up. When I was about to close the door, Fan Shengmei said:
"Little earthworm, don't close the door. I just finished taking a shower and need some fresh air!"

Then Qiu Yingying reopened the door, hugged Fan Shengmei from behind and said:

"Little sister Mei, you are dressed so beautifully, what are you going to do?"

Fan Shengmei couldn't help but smile and said:
"There's a bar opening today, and a friend of mine made an appointment with me to go and support their bar opening!"

Then Fan Shengmei sighed and said boastfully:
"Tell me, what should I wear tonight?"

Qiu Yingying, who was carefree, immediately said:

"The skirt you bought last time was so beautiful!"

Soon Fan Shengmei changed into the skirt and carried the LV bag. At this time, Qiu Yingying said enviously:
"You are so beautiful, Sister Fan. Go to the bar opening tonight and I guarantee you will get your male companion in one fell swoop!"

Qu Xiaoxiao changed her clothes casually and was about to go to Yao Bin's friend's bar.

When she came out of the house and walked to the door of Room 2202, she just heard Qiu Yingying's voice.

I just happened to hear Qiu Yingying say that Fan Shengmei was going to MINT Bar tonight, and I was immediately happy. Isn’t this the bar opened by Yao Bin’s friend?

"Haha, interesting, it's the same place!" Qu Xiaoxiao then leaned against the door frame, looking at Fan Shengmei who was dressed up, and subconsciously looked down on her.

(Women are advised not to stand against door frames, because only ancient prostitutes and modern prostitutes who half-close their doors like to stand against door frames to solicit business. Although the current atmosphere is open, the older generation will subconsciously look down on such behavior, and it will also hinder the passage of others.)
When she heard Fan Shengmei say that the people going there tonight are all the best in all aspects, and that she was going there to pick the best, she looked down on Fan Shengmei even more!
At this time Qu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but say:
"Xiao Qiu, are you going to the MINT bar tonight too?"

Then Qu Xiaoxiao looked at Fan Shengmei with a fake smile on her face and said sarcastically:
"Is there anyone to pick you up? If no one is picking you up, you can take my shabby little car!"

As he spoke, he swung the Polo car key in his hand a few times, but his eyes had already been fixed on Fan Shengmei. In a flash, he glanced at the items on Fan Shengmei's desk and body, and immediately had an idea in his mind.

"You misunderstood. It's not me who's going, it's Sister Fan!" Qiu Yingying said with a forced smile.

Although there were some unpleasant things with Qu Xiaoxiao and her friends that night, after all, so many days have passed and they are neighbors. They see each other every day. There is no need to make the relationship so bad. After all, they are the owners and they are the tenants.

And who is Fan Shengmei? She has been working as an HR in a foreign company for seven or eight years. With her experienced eyes, she can tell that Qu Xiaoxiao is not a good person.

Then their eyes met in the air, and crackling flashes of passion burst out.

But at this time Fan Shengmei was a little unconfident, because she knew that Qu Xiaoxiao was a real fair, rich and beautiful woman, and her family was extremely wealthy.

Although I was carrying the same LV bag as her, Qu Xiaoxiao was wearing all branded clothes while I was wearing just ordinary clothes.

Looking at Qu Xiaoxiao's shriveled figure, Fan Shengmei coughed lightly, puffed out her chest and smiled:
"Thank you, Xiao Qu. I've already been picked up. It's really inconvenient to drive tonight wearing high heels!"

Qu Xiaoxiao tossed the car keys in her hand and said with a smile:
"Oh, I'll be leaving first. Bye, Xiao Qiu. I'm going to the MINT bar to get pinched now!"

Fan Shengmei's face turned pale. Qu Xiaoxiao's last sentence hit her sore spot. This kind of thing was just a joke between them, but Qu Xiaoxiao was actually mocking her.

Afterwards, Fan Shengmei's mind was full of thoughts. She asked Lin Hao to go to the bar tonight not to pick anyone out. After all, she already had Lin Hao as her primary target. Asking Lin Hao to go to the MINT bar was more or less a way of showing off in front of others.

Thinking that he had not confirmed his relationship with Lin Hao yet, if he took him to the MINT bar and Qu Xiaoxiao, the fair, rich and beautiful woman, happened to go too, he would probably be ruined by this woman.

But she had already made an appointment with Lin Hao to go to a bar. Then her eyes lit up and, with her years of experience in Shanghai, she thought of a bar she had been to before!
"Sister Fan, are you okay?" Qiu Yingying asked Fan Shengmei who was in a daze.

Fan Shengmei smiled confidently and said, "What could possibly happen?"

On the other side, Qu Xiaoxiao went down to the parking lot on the underground floor and just saw a Porsche 911 driving in.

Later, Qu Xiaoxiao discovered that the owner of Room 2201 actually got out of the car. She then hid behind her car and watched Andy go upstairs.

"There has never been an ugly woman next to a million-dollar luxury car, but how many women who can afford to drive such a car are decent?"

Qu Xiaoxiao showed a sneer of contempt on her face. This was the second weirdo she had encountered today.

Thinking of this, she immediately ran to the Porsche 911, took several photos in a row, and then sent them to Yao Bin.

Then Qu Xiaoxiao got on her own POLO and called Yao Bin:
"This is the car driven by the woman in room 2201. Please check it for me. It's been so many days!"

Yao Bin hesitated for a moment before saying:
"I found out about the man downstairs from you, and I also found out a little about the qualified woman in 2201. It's quite complicated. I'll tell you when you get here!"

"Okay, I'll be there soon!" Qu Xiaoxiao glanced at Lin Hao's car while speaking, and then drove out of the underground parking lot.

Just as Qu Xiaoxiao left, Lin Hao rolled down the car window. He thought it was really interesting and then turned off the camera function on his phone.

At this time, Fan Shengmei also took the elevator to the underground parking lot. She saw Lin Hao at a glance, and then Fan Shengmei walked towards Lin Hao gracefully.

After Fan Shengmei got in the car, Lin Hao said:

"Oh, I forgot to ask you, which bar are we going to?"

"SHEN BAR!"

Lin Hao was stunned when he heard this. According to the original plot, shouldn't they go to MINT Bar? How did it become SHEN Bar?

So Lin Hao confirmed again: "Is it the one on Yan'an East Road, The Bund?"

"Yes, that's the one!" Fan Shengmei was a little surprised.

But thinking about the fact that Lin Hao is not a person short of money, it seems normal for him to know this bar.

After a while, Lin Hao drove Fan Shengmei to SHEN Bar. The main thing was that it was not too far away, less than ten minutes' drive.

Located on the 7th floor, the rooftop cocktail bar Shen is a great place to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Bund. It is located next to the Yunnan restaurant Huama Paradise and enjoys a superior geographical location, capturing many of Shanghai's enviable views.

"It's so beautiful!" Standing on the spacious and comfortable terrace outside the bar, Fan Shengmei looked at the Bund with a dazed look.
