Love Apartment: South Wind Passage.

Chapter 488 The father and son who broke each other's defenses
"Useful things? How is that possible!" Ziqiao answered without thinking.

He felt that no one in the world knew his godfather better than himself. Sales was not only a job for his godfather, but also his hobby.

And selling someone the thing they need the least to that person is a bad taste and little habit that the godfather is proud of.

He likes to sell refrigerators to Eskimos, auction tennis balls to Federer, and even sell wheelchairs to football players when he has sea cucumbers to sell. His main business now is selling fans in Russia.

...Anyway, if he said that he sold some useful things to everyone in the apartment, Ziqiao would definitely not believe it.

However, Ziqiao also heard the dissatisfaction in Dumas' words, and he did not want such things to affect their father-son relationship.

So Ziqiao patiently coaxed him, "Godfather, my friends are all poor, and none of them can make any money.

"And if you sell it to them at such a low price, you will lose a lot of money."

Seeing Dumas looking at him strangely, Ziqiao quickly said, "Actually, I'm not very familiar with them, so please don't sell them at a lower price because of me.

"How about this, I'll help you get your things back, and you return the money to them.

"I'm familiar with the Love Apartment area. I promise to help you find a group of stupid and wealthy people so that you can make a lot of money."

Dumas looked at Ziqiao with a smile on his face: "Ziqiao, it's not good to use the same tricks you use to coax a little girl to deal with your godfather."

"No, absolutely not."

Of course Zi Qiao couldn't admit it at this time: "I just feel that it's a big loss for you to sell your good stuff to these idiots who don't know the value of it."

As he was about to stand up, he said, “Don’t worry, godfather, I promise to help you get the things you sold to them back intact.

"You should also return the money quickly. We don't care about the money these poor guys are giving us."

"sit down."

Dumas calmly waved his hand to signal Ziqiao to sit down. Although Ziqiao was reluctant, he knew that if his godfather did not return the money, it would be useless even if he took the things back.

Tsk, if he had known that everyone would be deceived by his godfather, he would not have gone to see the beauties in swimsuits, and he wouldn't have to sacrifice poor Xiao Hei.

Seeing Ziqiao sitting down obediently, Dumas sighed and said, "One hand handed over the money, the other hand handed over the goods, the money and the goods are settled, and there is no more relationship.

"You've forgotten all the rules of the trade. It seems like you really don't want to do this anymore.

"Zi Qiao, I understand that you don't want to do this job. I will try my best to respect your choice since you want to retire here at such a young age, but you can't break my rules.

"Besides, am I, your godfather, a person who is short of money?"

Ziqiao looked at Dumas, and the puzzled and shocked expression on his face clearly said, "How can we, father and son, who can pick up five girls and check into seven rooms a day, not be short of money?"

Oh.

Ziqiao nodded in sudden realization. It seemed that his godfather was really old.

The glory of the past is gone.

"I always feel like you're thinking of something very presumptuous."

Dumas raised his head with a smug look on his face: “I want to tell you that although your godfather has white hair, the rich ladies in Moscow like my white hair very much and love me to death.

"They are even crazy enough to transfer money into my account every day. I, your godfather, don't lack money at all."

"What is 'In Moscow: The Domineering and Wealthy Women's Special Favourites'?"

Ziqiao simply couldn't believe that his godfather could still be like this: Every spring is worth every penny.

Unexpectedly, at this moment Dumas' cell phone started buzzing. He adjusted his glasses, frowned at the caller ID on the phone, and after a moment of hesitation, he hung up the phone.

"Elizabeth again. This woman is so boring. She keeps pestering me."

Ziqiao instantly became nervous when he heard this: "Dad, is that Elizabeth another Interpol?"

"Oh my, how is it possible? Whose Interpol would be a girl in her 40s?"

Dumas explained: "This Elizabeth is a Chinese woman I met in Moscow. She inherited a large fortune from her ex-husband.

"We had a great time and she told me she was in love with me and wanted to marry me.

“Of course I ran without a second thought, but this stupid woman just wouldn’t give up.

"Later, she kept following me wherever I went. I had no choice but to return to China to avoid the limelight."

"Oh~~~"

Ziqiao first nodded in sudden realization, then his face changed and he looked at Dumas expressionlessly.

"Come on, Dad, you are kidding me!

“If you are determined to hide, I don’t believe that Elizabeth is capable of finding you.

"She follows you wherever you go. Does she have clairvoyance or super hearing?"

He pointed at Dumas' phone and said, "If you really don't want her to pester you, you should block her first." "You're not old now, are you forgetting how to block someone?"

Dumas fell silent for a moment.

"How about... I can help you block this Elizabeth on all platforms,"

Ziqiao snatched Dumas' phone with a wicked smile. He vowed, "Don't worry, godfather. I'm very familiar with how to block girls. I promise that from now on, this rich old woman from Moscow won't bother you again."

"Don't!" Dumas stopped him subconsciously.

"Hey hey hey..."

Ziqiao gave a triumphant smirk: "I knew you were more or less interested in her, otherwise why would you play the clichéd domineering CEO romance routine of [you run away, she chases, neither of you can escape even if you have wings] with others.

"So... is that Elizabeth really a domineering rich woman?"

Dumas snatched the phone away, glanced at Zi Qiao and said unhappily, "You little brat, you don't even know the principle of not speaking out when you see something wrong."

Ziqiao approached Dumas in a servile manner, and he put his hand on his godfather's shoulder and advised, "Godfather, even though your sun never sets, we still cannot violate objective laws. Just look at you, you didn't have so many white hairs a few years ago.

"Listen to my son's advice. It's time for you to find a place to stay."

Dumas fell into a rare silence after hearing this.

He never admits he is old and always feels he is young.

However, time flies, and at some point, he suddenly realized in the mirror that his head was covered with white hair, and his body was not as light and agile as when he was young.

Dumas was unwilling to accept it, and even more unwilling to face it, but he knew vaguely...

I guess I'm really old.

Is it really time for me to find a place to stay?
Just as Dumas was trying to think about this problem for the first time, Ziqiao's sly and teasing voice echoed in his ears.

"Besides, godfather, if you marry well, then as your godson, I will also be blessed with good fortune."

The sadness that had just arisen in Dumas' heart suddenly disappeared, and he glanced at Ziqiao with a look of helplessness.

Dumas had heard many times about a man who became rich and powerful by marrying his daughter, but this was the first time he heard of a man who became rich and powerful by marrying his godfather.

Such shamelessness... He is indeed my godson!
"Zi Qiao, I haven't taught you a lesson yet. You are so young, but you have not even explored the world yet, so you have to spend your retirement here.

"But you actually want me to find a prison to serve my retirement sentence like you?"

"It's an apartment." Ziqiao corrected again, "And the words 'serving a sentence' are too exaggerated."

"It doesn't matter if it's an apartment or a prison, it's impossible! Don't even think about it!"

Dumas said firmly: "My future still has infinite possibilities, and my front is always full of freedom and hope.

"I'm not like you. My heart is still wandering in the sky, but I still insist on finding a prison to lock up my body."

Dumas looked at Ziqiao with burning eyes: "Ziqiao, do you really want to settle down here?"

"of course."

Zi Qiao shrugged and said, "It's just a matter of eating, waiting to die and picking up girls. Does it make any difference whether it's here or somewhere else?"

"I'm not talking about your body, I'm talking about your spirit and soul."

Dumas leaned back on the sofa, crossed his legs elegantly, and asked, "Zi Qiao, ask yourself why you chose to stay?
"Is it because of your friends or because of that girl?
"If your friends all have their own families and have to separate, or if that girl has her own new life and happiness, will you still be willing to stay in this apartment and live day after day?"

Dumas sighed and said, "So I say this is a prison. Love and friendship are two strong shackles that lock your freedom tightly, making it impossible for you to advance or retreat."

"Zi Qiao, is this kind of life really the stable life you want?"

Now it was Ziqiao's turn to fall silent.

Dumas chuckled when he saw this: "You haven't even thought it through yet, and you still have the nerve to advise me to find a place to stay.

"If you are a son, just be a good son and don't try to educate your smart and clever godfather."

He stood up leisurely and gently kicked Ziqiao's trouser leg.

"Okay, stop thinking too much. You can't get the answer to this kind of thing just by thinking."

Dumas looked at Ziqiao, whose eyes were lifeless, and touched his forehead with his hand: "This kind of thing needs to be understood."

"Help me put my luggage in first, and I'll take out the Moscow sausages and other specialties.

"It's too late for lunch today, so we'll go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables after lunch.

"Invite all your friends over tonight. I'll treat them to an authentic Russian dinner."
