Zhutian: Since I was a child, I have been happy to be a father

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.

In order to change his car to the current 5 Series, Na Wei was always worried that Shen Lin would not agree and quarrel with him.

He gave Shen Lin a necklace and tried to reason with her, saying "If you don't return home when you are rich and powerful, it's like walking in fine clothes at night", and only then did he succeed.

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 very proud; when Shen Lin went to a class reunion, she was also very impressive.

Therefore, it was a little hard for Na Wei to imagine how straight his father-in-law would be when his brother-in-law drove home in a million-dollar luxury car.

What's more, my brother-in-law is still looking at houses with an average price of more than 100,000 yuan!
It’s so outrageous.

Na Wei sighed: "Luxury, too luxurious!"

Shen Lin was puzzled and asked, "Leilei, why do you want to buy such an expensive car? You can't spend money like this. Wouldn't it be nice 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 already prepared herself to be lectured by her sister-in-law. After all, she herself felt that her husband was spending money recklessly and had nagged her a lot.

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 wanted to spend 10 million quickly and then be done with it. As a result, I met Xiaoyue and I didn't want to give up. I am very grateful to Xiaoyue, so after the car arrived at the store, I went to pick it up to save Xiaoyue from taking a taxi with a big belly in the future. You don't have to worry, this car is not a burden for me, and it will not affect my purchase of a house. I have made a lot of money from stock speculation in the past few months. Buying a large flat is a little stressful, but not that big. I roughly calculated that the budget for buying a house can still be 30 million. The down payment is 80%, which means a loan of 6 million, which will be paid off in 20 years, less than 40,000 per month. The income from my writing is now considerable, and I can even earn more and pay off the loan in advance. And it won't be long before I can get a salary increase, so the pressure is really not great."

Na Wei was stunned and said, "You can give 80% of the down payment? You mean, you actually made money from stock trading? Let me calculate, you made nearly 20 million? Are you kidding?"

Actor Chen said sincerely, "It's a little over 2,000. I also set aside some money for renovation and some for future living and childcare. If I wasn't so greedy, I could have earned an extra 1,000. If I hadn't run fast, I might have lost money instead of making any. This is a reminder that people shouldn'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 my stocks and bought a BMW. Can you teach me..."

Shen Lin interrupted immediately: "Don't think about it. Xiaolei has sold his stocks to buy a house, why are you still speculating? He thinks the risk is too big, so you still dare to speculate?"

Chen Tao agreed with a smile: "Sister, you are right. I was so obsessed with gambling at that time. If I hadn't calmed down a little and thought of Xiaoyue, how could I have stopped in time and prepared to buy a house? If I hadn't stopped, I would have been finished. I would probably have committed suicide because of stock speculation again. I am still scared now!"

Obviously Chen Tao does not feel that he has the obligation to help his step-sister and her family take off. Since it is a song for mortals, it must be sung like a mortal.

However, gifts are allowed.

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 current brother-in-law and sister respectively.

The price of gold is very high now, Shen Lin quickly declined: "Xiaoyue, you keep it and wear it..."

Na Wei felt embarrassed, even though he had wanted to change his watch for a long time.

Chen Tao advised, "Sister, this is a little gift from me. Over the years, you and your husband have taken good care of me and Xiaoyue, so we should repay you. Xiaoyue has also prepared a gift for my parents, and if you don't want it, they probably won't want it either. Take it now!"

Xiaoyue also advised.

After some arguing, the two happily accepted the gifts, and then the four of them went into the hot pot restaurant for dinner together.

Comrade Li Xiaoyue has arranged the relevant work for Chen Tao to have a baby, so naturally, the two of them did not drink.

That Wei can drink more.

With Shen Lin here tonight, he doesn't even need to find a designated driver.

8:50 pm.

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 angrily: "Can Lei Lei be blamed for this? Lei Lei has been better than his peers since he was a child, but your brother pointed at his nose and called him 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 court playing basketball and scoring through various aerial operations. He sighed and said with emotion:
"It's outrageous! Whether it's playing ball or making a lot of money in the stock market, it's too outrageous! I still can't believe it, it still feels like a dream. Don't you think it's outrageous?"

Shen Lin shook her head. "I don't know much about playing basketball, but making money from stock trading shouldn't be that outrageous, right? He already had 10 million in compensation as capital. If he's a little luckier, he could make one or two times the profit. Although it's exaggerated, it's not so incomprehensible."

Na Wei laughed: "That's right, the most outrageous thing is that the rich man fell in love with Xie Meilan and was willing to give Lei Lei 10 million."

QuickPass Technology.

"How is this possible? I don't believe it."

After learning about his enemy's current situation from his brother, Na Jun found it hard to accept.

When did making money become so easy? In just a few months, one thousand turned into three thousand. Not only did he buy a luxury car, but he also bought a large flat that cost ten million more than his flat in a better location and with better facilities? Was this really a joke?
"Juanjuan, this is true, I didn't lie to you. I think Leilei bought the house just for Xiaoyue, not against you, don't worry!"

This kind of thing cannot be hidden, and Na Wei naturally won't hide it from his brother, but there are some things he can't say too directly. He still hopes that the family can repair their relationship, even though it is difficult, basically impossible.

"Haha, not targeting me? He's just competing with me. That's fine, I want to compete with him too!"

Na Jun also became motivated, but soon lost his fighting spirit again.

He is still working overtime and is now exhausted both physically and mentally, even seeing double.

"Ugh……"

Na Wei was too lazy to persuade him. In fact, no one, including him and his parents, could persuade his younger brother.

***
On Monday, April 29th, the weather turned from light rain to cloudy with strong winds.

After Chen Tao finished his meal, he went back to his room to take a nap.

Li Xiaoyue still had something to say, and she kept him awake.

Can't blame her.

The husband is going to meet his ex-wife, with whom he once had a deep relationship, in the afternoon, and he refuses to bring her along as a third wheel. Of course, she will be a little jealous and worried.

So she has to be more determined and leave her husband penniless, since he has no power to show for it!

Chen Tao worked hard for a while and temporarily dealt with his clingy wife. He smiled and said, "Why are you jealous for no reason?"

Li Xiaoyue panted softly, "I'm not jealous, I'm worried! I trust you very much, but I really don't trust your ex-wife! What tricks would she not dare to use to sleep with you? You are not allowed to eat or drink anything she gives you."

Chen Tao kissed her, smoothed her hair, and then joked:
"Sleeping with me? She's tired of sleeping with me for more than a decade. She has a rich boyfriend now, so why would she think about this?"

Li Xiaoyue said angrily, "You're lying! If you're tired of sleeping with her, why do you sleep with her every day? And you got pregnant unexpectedly? You stinky husband, swear that you won't sleep with her again!"

"Well, I swear!"

"The voice is too soft." Chen Tao raised his voice and repeated it word by word, while also making movements in rhythm with his speech.

Li Xiaoyue bit him and started singing again.

Fortunately, the windows were closed, the curtains were drawn in advance, and she also restrained herself, so she was not complained about for disturbing others.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Tao was asked to wear a round-neck long-sleeved shirt to show the two marks on his neck that were deliberately left by his jealous wife.

When she was sent to the door, the Sichuan girl Li Xiaoyue spoke in a tone like the wife of a certain fishing emperor:

"Come back soon~"

No, it won’t be interesting without me counting to three. Brother Tao will have to find a good opportunity to tease her later.

Xie Meilan chose a newly opened coffee shop, saying that she wanted to confirm whether Brother Tao really loved Xiaoyue before the wedding. If they were only getting married out of gratitude, she, the ex-wife, would never agree!

At first glance, it really sounds like she wants to show some concern for her ex-husband because she feels she owes him too much.

Although Chen Tao told her to get lost, he actually wanted to meet her and see how she was doing recently.

So he hit it off and accepted his ex-wife's threat that "if he didn't agree to see her, she would attend the wedding."

Li Xiaoyue naturally didn't want her to attend her wedding, so although she was angry, she didn't object too much.

Half past three.

Chen Tao sat in front of Xie Meilan with a look of disgust, picked up the menu and ordered a cappuccino.

Xie Meilan looked at him. Even though she had seen how much her ex-husband had changed through video, she was still shocked to see him in person today. The fire burning in her heart grew stronger.

But she had to restrain herself, otherwise she would scare away her devoted ex-husband, so she apologized sincerely first:
"Hubby, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault. I almost got you into trouble. Thanks to Xiaoyue. I'm really grateful to her."

Chen Tao snorted: "Who the hell is your husband? Why are you yelling? Do you think I'm crazy because of you? Narcissistic!"

Still being arrogant?
If it's not for me, is it because he made too much money from stock trading and was as happy as Mr. Fan?
"It's all my fault anyway. I will make it up to you. As for this title, you know very well that I broke up with you because of money, not because we have no feelings for each other. The person I love most is always you, my husband!"

Xie Meilan said it very frankly.

Her ex-husband loved her deeply. Even though he beat and scolded her before the divorce, after he calmed down, he did it basically for fun. And after the formal divorce, he even tried to commit suicide for her. How could she not be moved by such love?

Why should she be so tactful? She can just speak her mind directly.

"Pull him down!"

Chen Tao retreated tactically: "I only love Xiaoyue now, I have no feelings for you, don't be so self-indulgent."

"Hubby, Xiaoyue is very good, but don't you think you are moving too fast? This is not love, it's just a momentary impulse because you are grateful to her and temporarily rely on her."

Xie Meilan said sincerely: "I don't object to you marrying her, I just hope you can be more rational and not be as impulsive as before. I am very worried about you and afraid that something will happen to you!"

As she said this, she held her ex-husband's hand.

Chen Tao didn't resist too much, otherwise how could the conversation continue? He said:
"Since you don't object, that means you support it. How do you pay the gift money? In cash or by bank transfer?"

Xie Meilan burst into laughter: "I can't afford 200,000 yuan, I only have 20,000 yuan, I can transfer it to you now."

Although she was promoted and her basic salary was already very high, she had only worked there for a few months and her expenses were high, with shoes, bags and jewelry, so she couldn't save any money.

She couldn't let Lu Jie give money to her ex-husband as a gift, right? No matter how generous Mr. Lu was, he would definitely be jealous or even dissatisfied.

In fact, she came to see her ex-husband today without telling Lu Jie.

Of course, her deliberate concealment meant that Lu Jie knew nothing about it.

Chen Tao said disdainfully: "Mr. Xie, you earn at least two million a year now, not counting the pocket money your adulterer gives you. How can you afford twenty thousand?"

Xie Meilan grabbed his hand, stroked her cheek, and chuckled:
"That's all I have in the account. There's another 80,000 at the hotel. Go get it yourself."

Chen Tao twisted it slightly, "Xie Meilan, you are so good, now that you are not short of money, you are lusting after lust and want to steal a man? I am not that kind of person, go find someone else!"

Having said that, he was about to pull his hand back.

Xie Meilan held it tightly and said with eager eyes:

"Honey, I miss you so much~"

Chen Tao looked at me like a cockroach and said, "Are you really interested in sleeping with me?"

Xie Meilan nodded: "Yeah, I'm interested!"

The heart beats, the flag moves.

The billboard on the tall building outside, which was being blown by the strong wind, also started to move, then fell down from the building and hit someone.

A certain domineering boss who came to visit his girlfriend just collapsed on the street and his life or death is unknown for a while, causing a commotion.

Of course, this little noise didn't affect his girlfriend who was arguing with her ex-husband in the cafe.

As the ambulance siren 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'll recommend a few toys to you when I have time, and you can just think of it as me playing with them!"

After that, he turned around and left.

Xie Meilan did not stop him, but watched him leave with a smile on her face.

How can it be done in one go?

Back then, Jinlian and the official had to argue for a while!

May 1st, early morning.

After packing their luggage, Chen Tao carried Li Xiaoyue downstairs and went back with her to their hometown in Hebei to hold the wedding.

As for Na Wei and other relatives, they had already arrived last night.

Even though his younger brother Na Jun would definitely feel very angry, for the sake of family harmony and the watch, Na Wei had to attend the wedding and banquet of his brother-in-law and former future sister-in-law.

on the way.

The bride, Li Xiaoyue, was playing with her husband's phone when she suddenly received a video call from Xie Meilan. (End of this chapter)
