After being scolded by Wang Cuiping, Wu Feiyue didn’t dare to propose staying in Yangcheng anymore.
He did not say it out loud, but if possible, he still wanted to strive to stayin Yangcheng.
“I’ll think about it. ‘
‘What’s there to think about? Feel free to go to Zhonghai in the future,” Wang
Cuiping said.
“Just tell me what you think about Bai Jing. What do you think?”
“Pretty good, pretty good,” Wu Feiyue said honestly.
Wang Cuiping looked at Bai Jing and smiled.
“Little Jing, what do you think of my son? We’re all on the same side. If you have any thoughts, just say it.”
Bai Jing lowered her head in embarrassment. “I also think he’s not bad. It’s good to find an honest person to live with.”
Lin Yi pursed his lips. Her words were very clear to him.
In the past, the words “honest person” was a compliment, but now it had become a derogatory word.
“Since both of you think that the other party is not bad, I’m pretty confident in this union.” Wang Cuiping smiled and looked at Zhao Li. “Little Li, other than this, do you have any other requests?”
Zhao Li hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said,
“I also think that Feiyue is a good kid. Shall we have a more in-depth chat? We can talk about the betrothal gift.”
“Sure. ‘
Wang Cuiping answered without hiding anything.
Ordinary people were more realistic than rich people. This point was vividly reflected in their conversation.
It was a time to discuss emotions and feelings, but he blatantly started talking about money.
Moreover, no one felt that it was against the norm. They were all extremely frank.
This was unlike rich people who would go back and forth and hide their true motives for a long time.
“Little Li, we know each other well. If you have any thoughts, just say it. I don’t have to worry about Little Yi now. Other than my eldest son, the rest will only get married in a few years time, so I’ll do my best I can in this matter.”
Lin Yi was speechless. Mom, if you continue like this, you’ll leave us no room for negotiation!
Zhao Li smiled in embarrassment. “You all know about Bai Jing’s situation. She’s an undergraduate in university and works in a Fortune 500 Global company. Moreover, there were many people wooing her before, so…”
“I know that Little Jing is outstanding, which is why we are trying our best to facilitate their relationship,” Wang Cuiping said.
“Then I’ll tell you the truth,” Zhao Li said.
“Previously, someone introduced someone to our Little Jing. He has a master’s degree from a famous university and from Zhonghai. Not only did he have a house and a car, but he also offered a dowry of 1.08 million. Since we have a close relationship and know each other well, we shouldn’t ask for so much. Let’s settle on a dowry of 880,000, which is also an auspicious number.”
“880,000?”
Hearing this, Wang Cuiping could no longer sit still.
Her previous expectations were for each of her children ‘s marriages to cost 100,000 yuan.
However, the orphanage was set to be reimbursed and Lin Yi had also given her a lot of money, she raised this standard to 180,000 yuan.
However, she could not provide 880,000 yuan.
Lin Yi was also completely turned off.
Even Ji Qingyan was too embarrassed to ask for 880,000 yuan. How could someone like her have the cheek to ask this?
Wang Cuiping subconsciously looked at Zhao Quanfu, wanting to hear his opinion.
Zhao Quanfu only smacked his lips. ‘We can’t fork out that much money.”
Wang Cuiping’s expression was a little awkward. “Little Li, isn’t this a little too much? You know our situation. There are so many children in our home. We can’t take out this amount of money. Can’t you reduce it a little?”
“Sister, we actually aren’t asking for much.” Zhao Li pretended to be troubled. “Previously, they offered me 1.08 million yuan. I was too embarrassed to ask you for this much.”
‘Well…”
Wang Cuiping was at her wit’s end. She looked at Lin Yi again, wanting him to come up with an idea.
Lin Yi knew that he couldn’t play dead anymore.
“Actually, it’s alright,” Lin Yi said, “880,000 isn’t much.”
Wu Feiyue frowned. Even if it was 180,000 yuan, he could not accept it, let alone 880,000 yuan.
However, just as he was about to speak, Lin Yi kicked him under the table, interrupting his train of thought. Then, he said to Zhao Li,
‘What other requests do you have? Tell me. Let’s discuss them together.
The Bai family members were delighted. It seemed that there was no point in talking to Wang Cuiping about this. They would simply talk to Wu Feiyue’s younger brother.
After all, he was the one paying.
Just as Zhao Li was about to speak, she realized that Bai Jing had quietly pulled her back and whispered,
‘What’s wrong, Daughter?”
“Mom, I want a bigger house. 200 square meters is too small.”
“In a place like Zhonghai, housing prices are not low. A house that is 200 square meters is already sky-high,” Zhao Li said.
She felt that her daughter’s expectations were a bit excessive. Even if his brother was rich, he could not go too far.
Otherwise, the situation would easily sour.
‘What do you know?” Bai Jing said, “I saw his watch just now. Do you know how much it costs?”
Subconsciously, Zhao Li looked at Lin Yi’s wrist.
She vaguely spotted a colorful watch.
‘What’s that? The watch strap is made of rubber. It’s obvious that it’s not worth much.’
“Let me tell you, that brand is called Richard Mille. I just checked on the Internet. His watch is worth more than ten million yuan. His wealth has already exceeded our imagination.
“He’s wearing a 10-million-yuan watch?”
After knowing the price of Lin Yi’s watch, Zhao Li could no longer remain calm. She originally thought that Lin Yi was rich, but she didn’t expect him to be this rich!
If any random watch of his cost more than 10 million yuan, wouldn’t it be easy to buy a house worth tens of millions?
“I understand,” Zhao Li whispered. “Be calm. I’ll mention your request when the time comes.”
“There’s no need to mention the ownership details either. I’ve already checked. As long as the two of you are married, it doesn’t matter who signs the deed as the house will be the property of the couple. Therefore, there’s no need to mention the name. This will also make us seem more genuine.”
‘You’re so thoughtful.”
During this period, Lin Yi and Wang Cuiping didn’t say anything.
This is a big deal. It’s normal for a family of three to sit together and discuss.”
Zhao Li straightened her expression. “We have discussed it and decided to lower the original amount. After all, Feiyue is a good child. There’s no need to set those rules.’
‘Yes, yes, yes. If the two of them get together, they’ll be even closer in the future. How good would that be?’
“That’s right.” Zhao Li said.
“So, in addition to the dowry, we hope to have a 300-square-meter or larger school district house in the city center of Zhonghai. It must be in a top-rated school district because if our children’s education falls behind, they will be left far behind others.”
“Mhm… a goo-square-meter school district house…”
After a few seconds of contemplation, Lin Yi secretly thought to himself,
“You really dare to ask for that?!”
