Chapter 857 Heartbeat, flag movement
Evening.
Outside a hot pot restaurant.
After Chen Tao parked the car, his step-sister and brother-in-law came over and sat in the back seat one after another.
Before, Na Wei was worried that Shen Lin would disagree and quarrel with him in order to change the car to the current 5 Series.
He gave Shen Lin a necklace and reasoned with her, saying "If you don't return to your hometown when you are rich, it's like walking in the night in brocade clothes", and finally succeeded.
And the benefits of changing the car are also real. When he went back to his hometown to hold a birthday party for his son, he was really proud; Shen Lin also had a great appearance when she went to the class reunion.
Therefore, Na Wei could hardly imagine how straight his father-in-law would be when his brother-in-law drove a million-dollar luxury car home.
What's more, his brother-in-law is still looking at houses with an average price of more than 100,000 yuan!
It's really outrageous.
Na Wei sighed: "Luxury, too luxurious!"
Shen Lin puzzled: "Leilei, why do you want to buy such an expensive car? You can't spend money like this. Isn't it good to buy a BMW 5 Series like your brother-in-law? Xiaoyue, you have to persuade him!"
Li Xiaoyue, who was wearing a Song Dynasty Hanfu and sitting in the passenger seat, had long been prepared to be lectured by her sister-in-law. After all, she also felt that her husband was spending money recklessly and nagging her.
Chen Tao protected his wife and said: "Sister, don't blame Xiaoyue! I ordered this car at the end of November. At that time, I thought about spending 10 million quickly and then getting rid of it. As a result, I met Xiaoyue and I didn't want to do it anymore. I am very grateful to Xiaoyue, so after the car arrived at the store, I still went to pick it up, so that Xiaoyue would not take a taxi with a big belly in the future. Don't worry, this car is not a burden for me and will not affect my purchase of a house. I have made a lot of money from stock trading in the past few months. Buying a large flat is a little stressful, but not that big. I roughly calculated, The budget for buying a house can still be 30 million. If the down payment is raised to 80%, it will be a loan of 6 million, which can be repaid in 20 years, less than 40,000 per month. The income from my writing is now quite considerable, and I can even earn more and pay off the loan in advance. And it won’t be long before my salary can increase, so the pressure is really not great. ”
Na Wei was stunned and said: “The down payment can be 80%? You mean, you actually made money from stock trading, let me calculate, you made nearly 20 million? Are you kidding me?”
Actor Chen sighed sincerely: “A little more than 2,000. I also reserved an additional A renovation fee, and a reserve fund for future living and childcare. If I wasn't too greedy, I could earn an extra thousand. If I wasn't running fast, I might lose money instead of making any. This is a reminder that people can't be too greedy. I'm already very happy to have a good house and Xiaoyue's company. "
Na Wei couldn't hear the two "if nots" at this time, so he asked excitedly:
"Xiao Lei, I also traded stocks, but I couldn't make any money, so I sold the stocks and bought a BMW. Can you teach me..."
Shen Lin interrupted immediately: "Don't think about it. Xiaolei has sold his stocks and is ready to buy a house, why are you still speculating? He thinks it's risky, so you still dare to speculate? "
Chen Tao smiled and agreed: "Sister, you are right, I was so obsessed with gambling at that time. If I hadn't calmed down and thought of Xiaoyue, I wouldn't dare to do anything else. How could I have stopped in time and prepared to buy a house? If I didn't stop, I would be finished. I might have tried to commit suicide because of stock speculation again. I'm still scared now!"
Obviously, Chen Tao didn't think he had the obligation to take his cheap sister's family to take off. Since he was a mortal, he had to act like a mortal.
However, giving gifts is okay.
Li Xiaoyue took out a Blancpain watch and a pair of gold bracelets and gave them to her former brother and sister-in-law, and her current brother-in-law and sister respectively.
The price of gold is very high now, Shen Lin quickly declined: "Xiaoyue, you keep it..."
Na Wei was embarrassed, even though he had wanted to change the watch for a long time.
Chen Tao advised: "Sister, this is a little gift from me. You and your brother-in-law have taken good care of me and Xiaoyue over the years, so we should repay you. Xiaoyue also prepared a gift for my parents. If you don't want it, they probably won't want it either. Take it!"
Xiaoyue also advised.
After a tug of war, the two happily accepted the gift, and then the four of them went to the hot pot restaurant for dinner.
Comrade Li Xiaoyue has arranged the relevant work of having a baby for Chen Tao, so the two of them naturally don't drink.
Na Wei can drink more.
With Shen Lin here tonight, he doesn't even need to find a designated driver.
Eight fifty in the evening.
As the gray Pamei went away, Na Wei looked at Shen Lin and asked with a wry smile:
"Leilei insisted on buying a 30 million mansion this time, just for Xiaoyue, to compete with Juanjuan, right?"
Shen Lin said unhappily: "Can Leilei be blamed for this? Leilei has been better than his peers since he was a child, but he was pointed at by your brother and called a loser. How can he feel good? His fighting spirit has been ignited! Wait and see, he will never lose to Na Jun!"
Xiaoyue told her this, and she had been holding it in for a long time.
Na Wei immediately thought of his brother-in-law running all over the basketball court and scoring through various aerial operations. He sighed and said with emotion: "Outrageous! Whether it is playing basketball or making a lot of money by stock trading, it is too outrageous! I still can't believe it now, it's like a dream. Do you think it's outrageous?" Shen Lin shook her head: "I don't know much about playing basketball, but making money by stock trading shouldn't be that outrageous, right? He already had 10 million compensation as capital. If he was lucky, he could earn one or two times the profit. Although it is exaggerated, it is not so outrageous that people can't understand it." Na Wei laughed: "That's right, the rich man fell in love with Xie Meilan and was willing to give Lei Lei 10 million, which is the most outrageous." Flash Payment Technology. "How is this possible? I don't believe it." After learning about the current situation of the rival from his brother, Na Jun found it hard to accept.
When did making money become so easy? In just a few months, one thousand became three thousand. Not only did he buy a luxury car, but he also bought a large flat that was 10 million more expensive than his flat and had better facilities? Is this really a joke?
"Juanjuan, this is true. I didn't lie to you. I think Leilei bought the house just for Xiaoyue, not for you intentionally. Don't worry!"
This kind of thing cannot be hidden, and Na Wei will not hide it from his younger brother, but there are some things that he cannot say too directly. He still hopes that the family can repair the relationship, although this is difficult and basically impossible.
"Haha, not against me? He is just competing with me. That's fine, I want to compete with him too!"
Na Juan also ignited his fighting spirit, but soon fell down again.
He was still working overtime, and now he was exhausted both physically and mentally. He even saw things with double vision.
"well……"
Na Wei was too lazy to persuade him. In fact, no one, including him and his parents, could persuade his younger brother.
***
On April 29, Monday, the weather turned from light rain to overcast with strong winds.
After Chen Tao finished eating, he went back to his room to take a nap.
But Li Xiaoyue still had something to say, which kept him from sleeping.
Can't blame her.
In the afternoon, my husband is going to meet his ex-wife, with whom he had a very deep relationship, and he refuses to take her there to be a light bulb. Of course, she will be a little jealous and worried.
So she has to be a little more intense to make her husband feel helpless and empty-handed!
Chen Tao worked hard for a while and temporarily took care of his clingy wife. He smiled and said, "Why should I be jealous when everything is going well?"
Li Xiaoyue gasped softly: "I'm not jealous, I'm worried! I trust you very much, but I really can't trust your ex-wife! What tricks did she dare to do in order to sleep with you? You are not allowed to eat or drink what she gives."
Chen Tao kissed her, smoothed her hair, and then joked:
"Sleeping with me? She has been tired of sleeping with her for more than ten years, and she has a wealthy old boyfriend. How could she think of this?"
Li Xiaoyue said angrily: "Liar! If you are tired of sleeping, why do you still sleep every day and get pregnant unexpectedly? Smelly husband, please swear that you will never sleep with her again!"
"Yeah, I swear!"
"The sound is too quiet."
Chen Tao raised his voice and repeated each word, while also making movements to match the rhythm of his words.
Li Xiaoyue took a bite of him and started singing a song again.
Fortunately, the windows were closed and the curtains were drawn in advance, so she restrained herself so that she would not be complained about disturbing residents.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Tao was asked to wear a round neck and long sleeves in order to show off the two marks on his neck deliberately left by his jealous wife.
After being sent to the door, Sichuan girl Li Xiaoyue spoke in a tone like the wife of a certain fishing emperor:
"Come back soon~"
No, if I count to three, it will be a little less interesting. Brother Tao will have to find a good opportunity to tease her in the future.
The place Xie Meilan chose was a newly opened coffee shop. She said she wanted to confirm whether Brother Tao really loved Xiaoyue before he officially held the wedding? If the union is just out of gratitude, then her ex-wife will never agree!
At first glance, it sounds like she feels she owes her ex-husband too much and needs to take care of him.
Chen Tao told her to get lost, but actually he wanted to meet her and observe how she was doing recently.
So they hit it off immediately and accepted the ex-wife's threat that "if she refuses to meet, she will attend the wedding."
Li Xiaoyue naturally didn't want her to attend his wedding, so he was angry but didn't object too much.
Half past three.
Chen Tao sat in front of Xie Meilan with a look of disgust on his face, picked up the menu and ordered a cappuccino.
Xie Meilan looked at him. Although she had seen how much her ex-husband had changed through the video, she was still surprised when she saw him in person today, and the wildfire burning in her heart became more and more swollen.
But she had to restrain herself, otherwise she would scare away her devoted ex-husband, so she first apologized sincerely:
"Husband, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault that almost caused an accident to you. Thanks to Xiaoyue, I'm really grateful to her."
Chen Tao snorted: "Who the hell is your husband? What are you yelling about? Do you think I'm crazy because of you? I'm narcissistic!"
Are you still arrogant?
Isn't it for me? Is it because I made too much money from stock trading and became crazy with joy like Fan Juren?
"It's all my fault anyway, I will make it up to you. As for this title, you also know very well that I broke up because of money, not because there is no relationship between us. The person I love most is always you, my husband!" "
Xie Meilan said it very calmly.
Her ex-husband loved her deeply. Even though he beat and scolded her before the divorce, he basically did it for fun after he got over it, and after the divorce was officially divorced, he sought life and death for her. How could she not be moved by such feelings?
Why should she be tactful? Just express her feelings and that's it.
"Pull him down!"
Chen Tao backed away tactically: "I only love Xiaoyue now, I have no feelings for you, so don't be so sentimental."
"Husband, Xiaoyue is very good, but don't you think that you are progressing too fast? This is not love, but a temporary impulse caused by your gratitude to her and your temporary dependence on her."
Xie Meilan said sincerely: "I don't object to you marrying her. I just hope you can be more rational and never be as impulsive as before. I am very worried about you, afraid that something will happen to you!"
As he said that, he held his ex-husband's hand.
Chen Tao didn't resist too much, otherwise how could we continue the conversation? Taking advantage of the situation, he said:
"Since you don't object, it means you support it. How to pay the gift? Is it cash or transfer?"
Xie Meilan chuckled: "I can't take out 200,000 yuan. I only have 20,000 yuan. I can transfer it to you now."
Although she had been promoted in rank and her basic salary was already very high, after all, she had only worked for a few months and her expenses were high. She couldn't save money on shoes, bags, and jewelry.
She can't let Lu Jie use money to give gifts to her ex-husband, right? No matter how generous Mr. Lu is, he will definitely be jealous or even dissatisfied.
In fact, she came to see her ex-husband today just without telling Lu Jie.
Of course, she deliberately concealed it so Lu Jie knew nothing.
Chen Tao said disgustedly: "You, Mr. Xie, earn at least two million a year now, not counting the pocket money that the adulterer usually gives you. How can you get 20,000?"
Xie Meilan grabbed his hand, touched the side of her face, and chuckled:
"There's only this much in the account. There's another 80,000 in the hotel. You can get it yourself."
Chen Tao twisted it slightly and said, "Well, you Xie Meilan, now that you are not short of money, you are full of warmth and lust, and want to steal a man? I am not that kind of person, you go find someone else!"
As he said this, he pulled back his hand.
Xie Meilan held it tightly and said with longing eyes:
"Husband, I miss you so much~"
Chen Tao looked at him like a cockroach and said, "Are you really interested in sleeping with me?"
Xie Meilan nodded: "Yeah~ I'm tempted!"
The heart beats, the flags move.
The billboard on the tall building outside, which was being blown by the strong wind, also moved, and then fell down the building, hitting someone.
A certain tyrant who came to see his girlfriend just walked into the street, not knowing whether he was alive or dead for a while, causing a commotion.
Of course, this little noise will not affect his girlfriend and her ex-husband in the coffee shop.
As the siren of the ambulance faded away, Chen Tao stood up and said goodbye to his ex-wife:
"Don't think about it anymore, I really can't let Xiaoyue down. How about this, I will recommend some toys to you when I have time in the future, and you just think it's me doing it!"
After that, he turned around and left.
Xie Meilan did not stop him, but watched him leave with a smile.
How could it be done just once?
Back then, Jin Lian and Da Guanren had to fight for a while!
May 1st, early morning.
After packing his luggage, Chen Tao carried Li Xiaoyue downstairs and went back to his hometown in Hebei with her to hold the wedding.
As for Na Wei and other relatives, they were already in place last night.
Although his brother Na Juan would definitely feel particularly angry, for the sake of family harmony and the watch, Na Wei also had to attend the wedding and banquet of his brother-in-law and his former sister-in-law-to-be.
Halfway.
The bride, Li Xiaoyue, was playing with her husband's mobile phone when she suddenly received a video call from Xie Meilan. (End of chapter)
