Chu Jiangyi had been a devoted admirer for six years. One day in his junior year, he overheard her saying...
"He's just a backup, how could I ever take him seriously? How could I give...
Early in the morning, Chu Jiang was also waiting at the gate.
Xi Ran hurriedly walked out.
"Slow down! No rush!"
Chu Jiang also smiled and handed breakfast to Xi Ran.
Have you eaten?
"have eaten!"
"Ranran! I rented a place near the school last night. Do you want to move in with me? It's a two-bedroom apartment, quite spacious, and the decor is nice. I'm sure you'll like it."
Xi Ran paused for a moment while biting into her steamed bun.
"I'm perfectly fine living in my school dormitory, there's no need for me to move out."
Chu Jiang had anticipated that the girl would say that. "I didn't ask you to move out completely. I want you to live in both the school dormitory and the rental apartment. You can choose to stay in the dormitory or the rental apartment if you want. It'll give you more options. What do you say?"
"You just need to bring out a few sets of clothes."
Xi Ran scolded, "Why did you waste that money? Your home isn't far from the school. Even if you don't like living at school, you can go home. It's only a half-hour walk."
Chu Jiangyi patted Xi Ran's head. "Silly girl, I want to have a little home with you where we can be alone. You can move out when you get tired of living at school, or you can stay there if you suddenly want to clear your head."
As soon as Chu Jiang finished speaking, he handed her the key.
Xi Ran didn't answer, but earnestly advised, "Why don't you cancel the lease? Do you have too much money to burn?"
Chu Jiang shrugged. "I can't cancel it. I've already signed a three-year contract. It will be until you graduate from university and start your internship, at which point the house will be closed."
Xi Ran reluctantly accepted the keys.
"Is this the money you earned from making short dramas?"
Chu Jiang nodded, "Yes, it didn't cost much."
"How much did it cost?"
Chu Jiang dared not hide it, after all, this matter could not be kept secret.
"Two thousand a month, three years' rent paid in one lump sum. You're so good at math, I don't need to calculate it for you, right?"
Xi Ran clutched her chest, feeling a sharp pain in her heart.
Do these rich people spend money extravagantly? Do they not even blink an eye?
Shouldn't you plan things out properly once you have money?
She spent tens of thousands of yuan in one go, and her heart ached.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, Chu Jiangyi is the heir of the Chu Group, and money is certainly not a problem for him.
She was too lazy to correct Chu Jiangyi's views on money. After all, it was something his parents had instilled in him since childhood, and it was deeply ingrained. Even if she wanted to change it, she couldn't.
"Oh, right! Aunt Yu sent me a message last night, asking me to come over early today. Is there something wrong?"
Chu Jiang also shook his head; his mother hadn't sent him a message about this.
Sure enough, with a prospective daughter-in-law, the son has to take a backseat.
"I don't know either, maybe something's wrong?"
"Shall we hurry up and go?"
"No rush, let's finish breakfast first and then go. There's no need to rush."
Xi Ran shook her head. "It's okay. I can eat as I walk. By the time I get to the subway station, I'll have finished my breakfast, which will save me a lot of time."
Chu Jiang frowned, but didn't say anything.
Perhaps her mother really did have something to discuss with Xi Ran.
Time passed by, and after about half an hour, the two appeared in front of the Chu family's gate.
Chu Jiang also entered the room by scanning his face.
He pulled Xi Ran into the villa, and as soon as they entered the living room, they were greeted by a lively scene.
What are you doing?
The three people in the living room stopped what they were doing and chuckled. "You two are back. Come on over and try on the clothes. The clothes I ordered a week ago have all come back."
Xi Ran was quite surprised. No wonder Aunt Yu asked her for her measurements a few days ago; it turned out she wanted to make clothes.
Before long, a very beautiful dress was stuffed into Xi Ran's hands, leaving her stunned.
"I have one too?"
"Of course! You're part of my family now, and Chen Jingsong invited you as well."
