Chapter 124 Gu Jia's Surprise

At the same time, Han Tao had already walked into the lobby of Grand Hyatt Mansion. When he arrived at the front desk, he handed over a stack of red envelopes in his hand, and confessed that this was a housewarming red envelope for their property.

This action caused the property management personnel at the front desk to stand up one after another. After the last few people gave in to each other, the foreman even asked for economic instructions before accepting it.

After thanking Han Tao, Xiaozhang took a handsome young man and followed Han Tao to the garage to carry his luggage.

Because I had already greeted Mrs. Wang yesterday, Gu Jia happily made a beautiful homemade cake today, and then hurried downstairs, planning to find the front desk of the property management, and asked them to help them swipe the card to go to the top floor.

Just a few people passed by, and Gu Jia, who was holding the cake with one hand, was taken aback for a moment, she felt that the people who had just passed by looked familiar.

However, she saw a side face, and she didn't dare to confirm it, and she had already made an appointment with someone, so she didn't dare to delay, so she suppressed her doubts, and softly shouted to the front desk: "Xiao Song."

"Hello, Miss Jia, how can I help you?" Xiao Song politely stood up and responded.

Gu Jia smiled politely, and said to Xiao Song, "I want to go to the top floor, please swipe my card for me."

"Miss Jia, are you going to the top floor?"

Xiao Song was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, Grand Hyatt Mansion is one of the best high-end residential areas in Shanghai, and the management is very strict.

The eighth to fifteenth floors are the ground floor and share two elevators, and the sixteenth to nineteenth floors belong to the middle floors and share two elevators.

But the 21th and [-]st floors are called the top floor and the second top floor. One is a three-story duplex and the other is a large flat floor. If you want to go to these two floors unless the owner of that floor agrees.

"What's the matter, Xiao Song, is there any inconvenience?"

Gu Jia is a very smart person, so she can naturally see the embarrassment on her face.

Xiao Song asked politely: "Excuse me, Miss Jia, I'd take the liberty to ask, are you going to Mrs. Wang's house?"

"Yes, I've already made an appointment with Mrs. Wang. Didn't we just move here? Let's visit each other and walk around."

Gu Jia smiled. Her real purpose was to allow her son Xu Ziyan to go to Depu Kindergarten opposite, but in front of outsiders, she couldn't say that she wanted to find a relationship.

"Ok Miss Jia, wait a moment, I have to make a call to confirm."

Hearing her explanation, Xiao Song nodded with a smile, picked up the phone and called Mrs. Wang's house and said:
"Hi, hello! The front desk of the property, there are your visitors downstairs, is it convenient for you?"

"Mmm Good!"

With the approval from the other end of the phone, Xiao Song put down the phone, smiled and said to Gu Jia:
"Okay, Miss Jia, I'll help you swipe your card, this way please."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Song guided Gu Jia to the dedicated elevators on the 20th and 21st floors, swiped her card on the elevator, and let her enter the elevator.

Gu Jia saw that there were only two floor options in the elevator, the 20th and 21st floors, and secretly complained in her heart. As expected of the Grand Hyatt Mansion, the higher the floor, the more expensive it is. The details look at the difference, and even the elevators are treated differently!
Just when she sighed secretly, the elevator had reached the 21st floor. Gu Jia walked out of the elevator, looked at the magnificent corridor like a palace passage, and showed a clear smile on the corner of her mouth.

The dark black tiles around it formed a sharp contrast with the scorched black marble under her feet, and the heavy double doors made her marvel again.

Originally, she thought that being able to buy a house in the Grand Hyatt Mansion and reach the 12th floor was already very remarkable, but now she saw that she understood: what is meant by people outside people, and sky outside the sky.

After slightly calming down the shock in her heart, Gu Jia carried the cake and walked slowly towards the mysterious and noble door.

Ding Dong!

Gu Jia reached out and rang the doorbell, and soon there were footsteps inside.

After a while, the nanny opened the door and asked Gu Jia, "Hello, are you?"

"Hello, I'm on the 12th floor downstairs, and I have an appointment with Mrs. Wang." Gu Jia replied with a smile.

"Yeah, okay, you can change your shoes first." With that said, the nanny handed Gu Jia a pair of disposable slippers.

"Thank you." Gu Jia nodded, hurriedly changed her shoes and walked in.

"Come with me, my wife is upstairs!"

The nanny closed the door, and Gu Jia followed her in. She couldn't help but look at the house. The description of everything can be reduced to two words - luxury!
What surprised Gu Jia the most was that the top floor was actually a duplex three-story structure with extraordinary high-end decoration. Famous paintings, antiques, and works of art were decorated everywhere in the house.

At this time, the nanny who was walking in front shouted upstairs: "Madam, your guest is here."

"Oh, bring her up." The upstairs replied impatiently.

Gu Jia followed the nanny upstairs and saw that Mrs. Wang was playing with the astronomical telescope. She looked at the astronomical telescope for a long time, but she couldn't see why, so she couldn't help muttering: "It's broken, is this?"

"Go to work, trouble!"

Gu Jia thanked the nanny politely, then stood aside with the cake, smiled and said to Mrs. Wang:
"I think yours should be a professional astronomical telescope. Otherwise, if you try it at night, the effect may be better."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang glanced at her and asked directly, "You understand this?"

"My husband likes these things better, so I know a little bit!"

After replying modestly, Gu Jia smiled, looked at her flatteringly and said:

"Mrs. Wang, I brought you some dessert. I made it myself. It is low-fat and low-sugar. You can try it."

"Oh, go and sit down!"

Mrs. Wang motioned for Gu Jia to let her follow her to the sofa and sit down, and continued:
"I'm not going around the corner, I want to go to Depu on the opposite side, right?"

"Yes!"

As Gu Jia replied, she cut a piece of cake and handed it to her: "Mrs. Wang, try it."

"You really did it?"

Mrs. Wang took the cake and took a bite. She felt pretty good, so she looked at Gu Jia in surprise.

Seeing Mrs. Wang's disbelief, Gu Jia quickly explained: "I made it. Our family Ziyan also likes to eat cakes, so I learned it on purpose."

"Well, not bad. I love cake the most. I have tried all the top cakes in the world. Your taste is really good."

Mrs. Wang nodded, glanced at Gu Jia arrogantly, and praised.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang likes to eat the cake she made, Gu Jia smiled slightly:
"That's great. If you want to eat anytime in the future, I'll make it and send it up."

Mrs. Wang also knew why Gu Jia liked her so much, so she tasted it and said:

"In our building, every year I send eight children instead of ten. Do you know why?"

"I really don't know about this!" Gu Jia shook her head pretending not to know.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang proudly said: "Because my husband is the honorary school manager there, you understand."

"Wow..." Gu Jia smiled inwardly, and also justly cooperated in exclamation.

Mrs. Wang was very satisfied with her expression, and asked with a smile: "By the way, yesterday you said that you are new?"

Gu Jia nodded and replied: "Well, I just moved here not long ago, so I planned to get acquainted that day, but I didn't expect that the elevator was broken and I met you."

"It's really a coincidence, which floor do you live on?" Mrs. Wang curled her lips and looked at her casually.

Gu Jia smiled and replied, "Mrs. Wang, we live on the twelfth floor, 1201."

After Mrs. Wang heard it, she felt a little disdainful, so she said:

"The 12th floor, that's the ground floor! In our community, the house price rises with the floor, and the higher the floor, the higher the house price, you know?"

"Well, understand a little bit!" Seeing her being so straightforward, Gu Jia smiled awkwardly and nodded.

Mrs. Wang ate the last piece of cake in the mobile phone plate, and asked again: "What does your family do?"

"I'm a full-time wife, and my husband runs a fireworks company." Gu Jia frowned and answered truthfully.

Mrs. Wang glanced at her and asked, "Fireworks company? How much money can you make that year?"

"It doesn't have to be, it needs to be..."

Gu Jia didn't know what to say for a while, no matter who came up, he would ask how much money others made, and who would be so stupid as to reveal their family background to outsiders, how would people answer this.

At this moment, Mrs. Wang's nanny interrupted their conversation and came up to report: "Madam, your painting has arrived."

"Oh, wait a minute, I'll go and have a look!"

After agreeing, Mrs. Wang immediately got up to look at the painting, while Gu Jia breathed a sigh of relief.

When the three of them arrived downstairs, they happened to see a few people carrying paintings in, and Gu Jia couldn't help but follow them curiously.

It turned out to be an oil painting, and it was Monet's Water Lily series. She and Xu Huanshan had seen this painting in foreign museums.

Seeing Gu Jia's stunned expression, Mrs. Wang said happily:

"By the way, do you know how to draw? Take a look, I bought this new one!"

"Is this... the real thing?"

When Gu Jia saw the world-famous paintings that Mrs. Wang bought, she couldn't help pointing to the oil paintings and asked.

Mrs. Wang held back the complacency and showing off in her heart, and replied disgustedly: "Nonsense, the price of fakes is too low, it must be genuine! This is what I bought at the auction, Van Gogh's "Water Lilies"!"

"Forehead……"

After Gu Jia heard this, she looked at Mrs. Wang with a strange expression.

Van Gogh and Monet can't tell the difference, is this painting real?Is it true that rich people are like this, and they don’t know whose paintings they bought for hundreds of millions.

Mrs. Wang directed the porters to place the paintings, then turned to Gu Jia and said:

"Looking back, I'll let them take a look. What kind of flowers do you think are placed in this restaurant? It's considered high-grade. How good I am, it will never wither!"

Mrs. Wang was self-satisfied, as if happily admiring the oil painting, Gu Jia resisted, and smiled awkwardly and politely at Mrs. Wang.

The more she watched, the happier Mrs. Wang didn't have time to talk to Gu Jia at this time, so she directly saw off the guest and said, "Okay, you go first, I will consider your matter."

"Ah, okay, that's my trouble."

Gu Jia looked at the oil painting and then at Mrs. Wang. After going out, she walked to the elevator in a daze. Only then did she realize that she hadn't changed her slippers back to her own shoes.

Today really opened her eyes!Such a rich person lives in such a nice mansion, even Van Gogh and Monet can't figure it out!It's either a fool, or it's probably an upstart with no culture!
