Compared to Shu Jing's hesitation, Wen Xiaowan was very calm. As if she could see what he was thinking, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Don't think too much! I just shoulder my responsibilities!"
Shu Jing thought for a moment, well, since she is not afraid, what does he, a grown man, have to be afraid of? Besides, he is not afraid of slanted shadows, and he will not take advantage of her!
"Thank you then. I'll come over when I need to use the bathroom." He took the key.
Wen Xiaowan gave a lukewarm "hmm" and stopped talking to him. She took out her mobile phone and continued to make calls. The number of the decoration company finally got through. She negotiated with the person aggressively and ordered the other party to send someone over within an hour.
Solve the problem, otherwise she will go to the Consumer Association to complain.
Shu Jing saw Wen Xiaowan arguing hard, looked at the key in his hand, and couldn't help but shake his head.
Obviously, she is not unreasonable, but she is too strong, and she takes everything seriously, speaks directly and does not know how to soften, but he has to admit that she has a lot of personality and can attract his attention.
Uh...what are you thinking about?
At best, they are just neighbors who had a blind date!
Shu Jing quickly pulled back his thoughts, and Wen Xiaowan immediately ended the call.
Not long after, the people from the decoration company came over, but they were vague and seemed to be shirking their responsibilities. Wen Xiaowan argued her case with force, and the two started to quarrel within a few words.
Seeing this, Shu Jing quickly pulled Wen Xiaowan behind him and warned, "Don't be so impulsive. There is no benefit in offending the decoration company. Not only will it not solve the problem, but it will also have counterproductive effects."
"What should we do?" Wen Xiaowan complained angrily.
"Stop talking, I'll talk to him." Shu Jing volunteered.
"You?" Wen Xiaowan raised her eyebrows, obviously having doubts, but after hesitating for a moment, she finally agreed.
Shu Jing comforted her and stood aside first, and then negotiated with the people from the decoration company in person. Perhaps because the military uniform he wore made people feel more reliable, the other party was not as worried about their claims for compensation as before, so the conversation entered into
He entered a relatively peaceful stage, and his attitude was not that strong. In addition, men are easier to talk to. Both parties made concessions on some small details. After that, they talked for less than ten minutes, and the whole incident was settled.
Finally, the decoration company agreed to take responsibility, and he didn't ask for a penny more in compensation.
After the negotiation, the decoration company hired two workers to cut out the remaining half of the bathtub. Then the property management staff came to help replace the new water pipes. Finally, the decoration company installed the new bathtub...
The dispute is completely resolved.
During this process, Shu Jing was always negotiating with people and was very patient.
An hour later, the construction was completed and the workers left one after another. He politely saw them off to the door.
Wen Xiaowan remained silent from beginning to end, standing aside with her arms folded across her chest, looking deeply at Shu Jing for a moment, and couldn't help but look at him with admiration.
"You're pretty good at negotiating!" She said in an envious tone.
Shu Jing spread his hands, "Actually, I just conveyed what you meant, but I just changed the way of saying it."
Wen Xiaowan gritted her teeth and felt a little angry. She wasn't doing well. Why did she start a quarrel after barely saying a few words? Damn it!
With a smile on his face, Shu Jing said kindly, "You used to practice Taekwondo, and your life was mainly about training and competition. The environment was relatively simple, so you were used to speaking in a straightforward manner. Now you are a physical education teacher in the university, and the people you interact with are also the same.
Mainly students, so there aren't that many conflicts, but you still have to pay more attention to the way you speak in society, and it's better to be gentler."
Wen Xiaowan narrowed her beautiful eyes, "Are you lecturing me?"
"No, no!" Shu Jing quickly raised his hands in surrender and clarified with an innocent face, "I was just expressing my opinions or suggestions in good faith."
Wen Xiaowan snorted softly. Although she knew what he meant, she still felt that he was interfering with her privacy, so she replied warily, "Thank you! But we are not familiar with each other, so I don't necessarily need your opinions or suggestions."
Accept it. Also, don’t think that you know me very well just because we had a kiss once!”
She looked domineering again.
Shu Jing couldn't help but have a headache. During the blind date, her mother explained everything about her few resumes. It was hard for him not to know!
"Then you just think that I care about my neighbors. As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Is it okay for me to be friendly to my neighbors?" he said euphemistically.
Wen Xiaowan raised her beautiful chin, that's pretty much it!
"You helped me today. How about I treat you to dinner at noon?" She didn't want to owe him!
Shu Jing originally wanted to say no, but seeing Wen Xiaowan's attitude of "repaying kindness and revenge", he had no choice but to agree, "Okay, but before I go out, I need to borrow your bathroom."
He hasn't washed up since he got up in the morning.
"No problem." Wen Xiaowan agreed readily.
Shu Jing immediately went back to his apartment, got toiletries, slippers and other items, and then returned.
"Then I'm going in..." He explained again before entering the bathroom.
Wen Xiaowan nodded, "Please do."
Shu Jing then turned around and entered the bathroom.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoosh!" The sound of water soon sounded in the bathroom.
Wen Xiaowan took out her wallet and prepared to treat a guest. Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
"Ding dong——"
Wen Xiaowan stood up and looked, "Dad? Why are you here?"
Wen Jinhu walked in with a worried look on his face, "I was in a meeting at the police station yesterday and just got off work. I heard your mother said that you went on a blind date yesterday? How is that man? Do you feel anything?"
Wen Xiaowan suddenly got a clue. She has a pair of excellent parents. Her mother has been worried about her not being able to get married since she was 15 years old, while her father has been worried about her being abducted by a bad man since she was 15 years old. So every time he hears her
If he has a suitor or a blind date, he will interrogate them one by one, as if he is interrogating a criminal!
"Dad..." Wen Xiaowan sighed and wanted to explain, but as soon as she opened her mouth, the bathroom door was "brushed" open. Shu Jing wiped his hair and walked out, "I've washed it..."
"Damn! Brat, who are you? Why are you at my daughter's house?" Wen Jinhu roared with a black face.
"Dad, it's not what you think!" Wen Xiaowan quickly explained.
Shu Jing also quickly clarified, "Uncle, you misunderstood..."
Before he could finish speaking, Wen Jinhu had already taken out the handcuffs he carried with him.
