Chapter 453 - 453 453 I Bid on This House
453: Chapter 453: I Bid on This House 453: Chapter 453: I Bid on This House “Don’t worry about that, my spouse and I will move out of the house and let them live there; we’ll go back to the countryside.
As for the car, we’ll try to pay the down payment.” Just then, Zhong Meimei’s father coughed and spoke up!
Obviously, the old man was deeply concerned about his son’s wedding.
As long as his son could be a bit more comfortable, what did it matter if the two old folks suffered a little?
This was also a true reflection of many families in the Dragon Country nowadays; a marriage on the son’s side could cost the parents most of their life savings.
Marriage is, after all, the union of two people, creating a family together.
It won’t work out if only one side makes sacrifices.
Over time, the one who gives more is bound to harbor resentment.
Too many lovers split up over dowries, houses, and cars, marrying people they don’t love.
Looking back, there’s often a sense of regret.
Better to cry in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle, but whether one is truly happy or not, that’s nobody else’s business.
“That’s not acceptable.
The house is the result of your life’s work; I can’t just kick you out because I’m getting married,” Zhong Kang firmly shook his head and said to his parents.
“Wenwen, I will work hard for the house and the car, but for now, we’ll have to live with my parents.
Do you agree?” Zhong Kang looked at Wenwen with a serious expression and asked!
Watching from the side, Zhong Meimei couldn’t help but feel tense, thinking how silly her brother was to ask such a thing in front of so many people.
Even if Wenwen was willing, would her family agree?
Indeed, it happened just as Zhong Meimei had anticipated.
“Oh, haven’t even married into the family yet and already making threats,” Wenwen’s mother said coldly!
She had not agreed with this arrangement, but seeing how her daughter liked him, she had kept quiet.
But Zhong Kang said: “Auntie, I’m not threatening Wenwen.
Marriage is between the two of us, and I am discussing this matter with her seriously.”
“What now?
If my Wenwen doesn’t agree, are you going to call it off right here?” The next to speak was Wenwen’s aunt.
“Without you, my Wenwen has plenty of choices,” Wenwen’s grandaunt, who had just calmed down, burst out again.
For a moment, there was a heated exchange of words.
Wenwen’s mother even went so far as to grab her daughter and said with a snort, “Come with mom, we’re better off not entering this marriage.”
“Hey, in-law mother, let’s talk this through,” Zhong Meimei’s mother, panicking, grabbed Wenwen’s mother, her face filled with anxious pleading.
“Let go!” Wenwen’s mother brushed off the hand effortlessly, and Zhong Meimei’s already frail mother was pushed to the ground.
“What now?
Trying to play the victim?” Wenwen’s mother said with a sneer after seeing this!
Just then, a man nearby, who had been looking on with interest, brightened up when he saw Zhong Meimei.
At that moment, Wenwen and Zhong Meimei both rushed to their mother’s side, asking anxiously, “Auntie, Mom, are you okay?”
“I’m fine, I’m fine,” Zhong Meimei’s mother said as she shook her head!
With their help, she stood up, and seeing this, Wenwen’s mother said angrily, “Wenwen, come over here.”
“Mom, what are you doing?
Dad, say something!” Wenwen looked at her father pleadingly, her feelings for Zhong Kang were genuine.
“Say what?
Having no place to live, staying with his parents, there will be who knows how many conflicts in the future.
You’re young, Wenwen, you don’t understand.
I can’t let you suffer,” Wenwen’s mother said!
“In the end, it’s all about a house.
I’ll pay for the house; can we leave it at that?” At that moment, Zhong Meimei clenched her teeth and stepped forward to say!
She had remained silent from beginning to end, but the moment she saw her mother being pushed down, anger surged within her.
She knew she couldn’t afford a house by herself, but she thought it was always possible to simply ask for help.
As a last resort, she could take out a loan and pay it back slowly over time.
“You’ll pay?
What makes you, a little girl, think you can afford it?
Do you have any idea how much housing prices are in Zhongzhou?” sneered Wenwen’s great-aunt.
The family members also looked at Zhong Meimei with disbelief.
“If I say I can afford it, then I can afford it.
There’s no need for my brother to pay off any debts,” Zhong Meimei said defiantly, biting her lip.
Zhong Kang looked at his sister, his heart filled with mixed emotions, and pulled Zhong Meimei aside, saying, “Meimei, don’t talk nonsense, your big brother can make money on his own!”
Before Zhong Meimei could reply, Wenwen’s mother sneered:
“Hmph, then bring out the house first before you speak.
All talk and no action, who do you think you’re fooling?”
“A house, is it?
I’ll pay for this young lady,” said a man with a light chuckle at this moment, the very man who had paused earlier.
“Who are you?
Who do you think you are to pay?” Wenwen’s great-aunt sneered again, but was promptly silenced by Wenwen’s great-uncle covering her mouth.
“Mr.
Liu, it’s a pleasure to see you here.
I never expected to encounter Mr.
Liu in this place,” greeted Wenwen’s great-uncle, bowing obsequiously to the man.
“And you are?” Mr.
Liu frowned slightly.
This scene had certainly attracted many onlookers since most of those able to come to the Shengdu Hotel were either wealthy or noble.
Now, many eyes were on Zhong Meimei, feeling that this young girl looked somewhat familiar—some were pondering, while others had sudden realizations.
“Mr.
Liu, important people often forget things.
I met you last month, sir, at the launch event for the sale of Liu Real Estate’s building projects.
I was there at the scene,” Wenwen’s great-uncle said with a smile!
“Oh, oh.” Mr.
Liu nodded his head, yet he still could not recall, and had to brush it off.
“Mr.
Liu…” Wenwen’s great-uncle attempted to speak again but was interrupted directly by Mr.
Liu, who said indifferently:
“If this young lady says she’ll provide a building, how about I act as a guarantor?
If she can’t afford it, I will.”
Zhong Meimei looked at Mr.
Liu, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, “May I ask who you are?
I don’t seem to recognize you.”
The crowd, which had been speculating about Zhong Meimei’s relationship with Mr.
Liu, showed surprised expressions upon hearing this.
How could someone not known to Mr.
Liu come forward as a guarantor?
It was well known that a person like Mr.
Liu valued his reputation above all else.
If he said he would provide a house, he would certainly not go back on his word.
“Sorry!
Miss Zhong, allow me to introduce myself.
My name is Liu Yihong, I work in real estate.
We’ve met once before at the First Hospital; perhaps you didn’t notice me,” Liu Yihong said with a smile!
He then took out a business card and handed it to Zhong Meimei.
Once, through his contacts, he had managed to squeeze a friend into a fully-booked department, of course, not him personally but a friend of his who happened to be present that day.
After witnessing the miraculous medical skills of Qin Han, he had always wanted to make his acquaintance, worrying that he would never have the chance.
But now, an opportunity had presented itself!
Moreover, he overheard the argument between the head of orthopedics and Qin Han while he was right outside the door, such as Qin Han instructing Zhong Meimei to take charge as needed.
“I’m sorry, I don’t remember,” said Zhong Meimei coolly!
“Miss Zhong, don’t be polite.
Liu Real Estate happens to have a new property launching; feel free to pick out any building you like and just let me know,” Liu Yihong said with a smile, looking at Zhong Meimei!
“No, I can’t accept this, I don’t know you, and it’s too precious,” Zhong Meimei shook her head and said!
Receiving a house from a stranger was not something anyone would dare to accept lightly.
“Mr.
Liu, I don’t care who you are, but don’t set your sights on my sister.
I will buy my own wedding house, and you won’t be taking advantage of my sister!” Zhong Kang stepped forward to protect Zhong Meimei and coldly said to Liu Yihong!
