Chapter 36 Help Me Buy a House
The next morning, Li Yi brought his sister, Li Wenxiu, and returned to Yang City.
“Brother, how big is your school! What places are fun to go in Yang City? I heard there’s a large amusement park. Have you been there?”
“Brother, how many hours before we get there? Did you also take the train when you were coming back?” “Brother, where do I stay? Do I stay with
you?”
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl was at the age of innocence. Now that she was going out for the first time, Li Wenxiu was like an excited lark, chattering beside Li Yi’s ear.
“Be quiet, I want to sleep for a while. Don’t disturb me!” Sitting in the taxi and heading to the train station, Li Yi closed his eyes and ordered in disdain.
Li Wenxiu curled her lips and raised her cell phone to take photos of the scenery along the way. Speaking of which, this was her first time going somewhere far away!
The journey that originally needed five to six hours was shortened to more than three hours by train.
In the afternoon, around two o’clock, Li Yi came out of the subway station with his sister, Li Wenxiu.
Li Wenxiu dragged a pink suitcase and followed behind Li Yi. She looked around curiously. There was an endless stream of traffic, large buildings, tall and short. The shops with various signs along the street were filled with the aura of a marketplace.
“Brother, are we close to your company? Shall we walk over?” Li Wenxiu followed closely behind Li Yi and asked patiently
“We’ll be there soon,” Li Yi replied. Then, he brought Li Wenxiu to an office building.
Li Wenxiu followed closely behind and followed Li Yi into the building and into the elevator.
The elevator went straight to the 22nd floor. When the elevator door opened, the white front desk of a large company appeared. Two young girls were sitting behind the front desk. They were wearing white short-sleeved shirts and black hip-hugging short skirts, complementing their slender figures. They had light makeup, fair skin, and were very beautiful.
When the elevator door opened, their eyes lit up when they saw Li Yi. They greeted in unison, “Good afternoon, President Li.”
“Hi. Get Secretary Cai to my office!” Li Yi nodded at them and walked straight to the office.
“Alright!” the two receptionists replied in unison.
Li Wenxiu’s eyes widened as she followed closely behind Li Yi. She looked around curiously, as if she was Granny Liu entering the courtyard in the Dream of the Red Chamber, her gaze filled with surprise.
There were so many people and it was such a big and lively office area!
Following Li Yi, Li Wenxiu passed by the corridor of the office hall. The rows of desks in the office hall were filled with people. They were on the phone and typing on the keyboard… Everyone was busy. The scene was like a market, very lively.
He walked all the way to the end of the corridor to the room marked the chairman’s office.
Li Yi opened the door and walked in.
Li Wenxiu dragged her pink suitcase and followed in surprise.
“Wow! What a big office! It’s even bigger than our living room! What a big table! Brother, is this your seat?” Walking into the office, Li Wenxiu couldn’t help but exclaim.
This office had an ebony desk that was nearly two meters long. The ebony bookshelf behind it was very gorgeous. On the other side was the lounge containing a mahogany coffee table, a leather sofa, a full solid wooden floor, a full-length window, and the beautiful scenery below.
“After saying so much, aren’t you thirsty? Come and have some water.” Li Yi sat on the sofa, took a bottle of mineral water from under the coffee table, and unscrewed the cap. Li Wenxiu chuckled and casually placed the pink suitcase in the corner. She sat opposite Li Yi happily and took the mineral water. As she drank the water, she admired the decorations of the office.
“Brother, you video-called me here the last time. Hmph! At that time, you didn’t even tell me that this company was yours.” Li Wenxiu thought of something and questioned Li Yi.
“Didn’t you say that I looked bad speaking while I was eating? Why should I tell you!” Li Yi smiled coldly and asked.
Li Wenxiu was immediately speechless.
“Knock, knock…” There was a knock on the door.
“Come in!” Li Yi looked outside the door.
As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, the glass door was pushed open. Cai Xiaowei walked in with a smile. “President Li, you’re back so soon!”
“This is?” Cai Xiaowei looked at Li Wenxiu and asked with concern.
“She’s my sister, Li Wenxiu!” Li Yi introduced and instructed, “She doesn’t have much to do during the summer break so I want to give her some errands to do. Bring her to the customer service department! Do whatever you can. If not, that’s fine as well. Don’t give her any special care.”
Upon hearing that the girl was Li Yi’s sister, Cai Xiaowei looked at her with more kindness.
“Alright, do you want to arrange a place for Wenxiu to stay!” Cai Xiaowei agreed happily and asked with concern.
“Well, help her rent an apartment! In addition, help me find good houses nearby. It’s not good to keep renting houses. I want to buy a house.” Li Yi thought for a moment and nodded.
Upon hearing this request, Cai Xiaowei was shocked. She didn’t expect Li Yi to entrust her with such a big matter like buying a house.
“President Li, how big is the house you want to buy? Do you want to buy a first-hand one, or a second-hand one? I don’t understand much about buying houses!” Cai Xiaowei asked with a bitter smile.
Li Yi smiled and pointed. “I’ll ask Manager Xu to guide you in this matter. If it doesn’t work, let her ask the bank she’s working with and recommend some houses with high cost-effective ratios that are suitable for me to buy.”
“Alright, I understand!” Cai Xiaowei nodded in understanding
“If there’s nothing else, take her away!” Li Yi looked at Li Wenxiu and signaled to Cai Xiaowei.
With that said, Li Yi looked at Li Wenxiu and reminded Li Dao solemnly, “Follow Little Wei and be good. Otherwise, I’ll kick you out.”
“I know!” Li Wenxiu chuckled and happily followed Cai Xiaowei out of the office.
After watching them leave, Li Yi took out his laptop from his computer bag and sat at his desk to get busy.

Cai Xiaowei brought Li Wenxiu to the customer service department and looked for the person in charge of the customer service department, Zhang Caixia. “Our department is lacking people. It’s definitely not a problem to let this little beauty join? However, is she an adult?” Zhang Caixia looked at Li Wenxiu behind Cai Xiaowei in surprise.
“Not yet! I’ll only turn sixteen in three months,” Li Wenxiu answered honestly with a smile.
Zhang Caixia was speechless. She looked at Cai Xiaowei and asked in confusion, “Does Manager Zhang know about this? Isn’t it illegal for our company to hire underage employees!”
“This situation is a little special. I’ll talk to Manager Zhang. Just bring her along. After the summer break, she would need to go back to class,” Cai Xiaowei said with a smile.
Zhang Caixia nodded and arranged for Li Wenxiu to be led by a team leader.
There were more than 30 girls in the entire customer service department. They were all in their early twenties. The youngest, Li Wenxiu, immediately became a group favorite.
Li Wenxiu studied the work of the customer service department with the team leader, Yang Ying. She didn’t reveal her identity as the boss’s sister. Instead, she hid in the customer service department and learned about her brother’s company from them.
