Once reborn, Su Jiaojiao returned to the year she was forced into marriage. This time, she no longer escapes; she calls off the engagement, fights against scoundrels, earns money herself when broke...
Chapter 522: Dividends from the Film and Television City
After dinner, Lu Jingyou took out a stack of documents and bank cards from his bag and solemnly placed them in front of Su Jiaojiao. "This is the property ownership certificate for the new factory building in the Beijing Suburban Industrial Park, as well as various documents. All the formalities have been completed. This factory building is a dividend from the land in the film and television city. The money in your card has not been touched."
"Dividends?" Su Jiaojiao didn't expect Lu Jingyou to give her dividends. She had fully authorized Wang Hua to help her handle the construction of the Beijing Suburban Industrial Park, and Ding Linyu assisted Wang Hua in handling the initial investment.
The reason why she chose to go to the Beijing Suburban Industrial Park was that she wanted to have her own company with independent property rights and did not want to partner with anyone.
"That's right." Lu Jingyou pulled out another stack of documents from his bag and said solemnly, "This is the property certificate for the commercial land I promised to reserve for you. It's in your name alone, and it's also for your share of the profits."
Chen Guilan was confused watching from the side.
She had heard of people giving gold, silver, and money as gifts, but she had never heard of anyone giving a company as a gift.
"Thank you!" Su Jiaojiao accepted it generously and said happily, "This is the most generous dividend I've ever received."
Since it was a dividend, of course she wanted it.
Don’t miss it!
"As long as you're happy." Lu Jingyou smiled and took out a bank card, placing it in front of Chen Guilan. "Auntie, this is the betrothal gift for the engagement day. It's inconvenient for me to withdraw it now, so I just put it in the card. The password is the last six digits of Jiaojiao's birthday."
"Xiao Lu, I've told your Grandma Song that we don't want a betrothal gift. I just want you to treat Jiaojiao well." Chen Guilan pushed the card back. "I only have this one daughter. The betrothal gift is just a formality for me. I'll give it to you in the end."
She didn't want a dowry because she didn't want Su Houli to worry about her.
She got angry when she thought of Su Houli's greedy face.
"Auntie, my grandma said that the betrothal gift must be given. You don't want it because you trust me, but I can't let you down." Lu Jingyou didn't know what Chen Guilan was thinking and pushed it back firmly. "Anyway, I'm going to give this card to Jiaojiao later, so why not give it to her now? This is a token of my love, and I won't take it back."
Seeing that Lu Jingyou insisted on doing so, Chen Guilan had no choice but to accept it.
Although she didn't know how much money was in the card, it was definitely not a small amount.
Thinking of this, she said to Lu Jingyou, "Let's go back to Jiao County two days in advance to prepare. I've already made arrangements with your second uncle to have him and Xiao Zhao go to the China Travel Agency to book the banquet hall in advance. I'll prepare the list of guests and notify them in the next two days."
"Okay, we'll follow your arrangements." Lu Jingyou agreed. He turned his head to look at Su Jiaojiao, who had fallen asleep leaning on the sofa.
"She's been waking up and falling asleep like this for the past few days..." Chen Guilan sighed, "Although it's much better than before, she still can't sleep well and wakes up every hour at most."
"When she wakes up later, I'll take her to see a Chinese doctor." Lu Jingyou picked up Su Jiaojiao and went back to the bedroom. Her current state only made him feel more distressed.
If it weren't for the things that happened in their family, she wouldn't have become like this.
Su Jiaojiao fell asleep in the bedroom. Lu Jingyou returned to the living room to continue chatting with Chen Guilan. Chen Guilan asked about Lu Jiaping: "How is your second uncle?"
"The official verdict came a few days ago. He was sentenced to two years, suspended for one year. He'll be released around this time next year." Lu Jingyou didn't say much. "My grandfather told others that he was on a business trip, just to save his face."
Anyway, Lu Jiaping hasn't been in the imperial capital much in the past two years, running around everywhere.
Now that the company has gone bankrupt, no one pays attention to him except those few people who know the inside story.
"A year goes by quickly." Chen Guilan didn't ask any more questions.
Qin Shuang called her yesterday and said that Qin Xiuming had found a job in Yangcheng and would develop his career there in the future. She also said that Qin Xiuming was in a bad mood recently and she wanted to go to Yangcheng to accompany him.
Chen Guilan was confused. Why did Lu Jiaping end up like this when he was living a good life?
But these matters were the Lu family's family affairs after all, so Chen Guilan didn't dare to ask too much.
After Su Jiaojiao woke up, Lu Jingyou said he would take her to see a Chinese doctor, but Su Jiaojiao refused, saying she was already well.
"It's okay if Chinese medicine is a little bitter; the key is that it can cure the disease." Chen Guilan also urged her to see a Chinese doctor, "When you can't sleep at night, it's more uncomfortable than the taste of the Chinese medicine. You feel uncomfortable, and so do I."
Only then did Su Jiaojiao agree.
Doctor Tan lived in a small alley. He wore a white coat, had white hair but a youthful face, and worked at an old-fashioned desk. The room was filled with the smell of medicine. When they went there, the patient in front of them had just left. Doctor Tan asked Su Jiaojiao about her age and occupation, then began to take her pulse.
After taking the pulse, he began to prescribe a prescription. Lu Jingyou couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Doctor, how is my partner's condition?"
"Her insomnia is caused by stress. Go out for a walk more often to relax. Three courses of treatment will cure her." Doctor Tan said expressionlessly, "Two courses would have been enough. I'll regulate her menstruation. Irregular periods are troublesome."
"Thank you, doctor." Su Jiaojiao was surprised that he could even see such a thing.
Lu Jingyou had dinner at Jinyuan before leaving. He almost wanted to live there. Chen Guilan then asked Su Jiaojiao, "Xiao Lu gave us both a company and land, why didn't you just accept it?"
"Why should I refuse the dividends he gave me?" Su Jiaojiao said indifferently, "My name is already on it, and I can't change it back."
"There won't be any trouble in the future, right?" Chen Guilan thought Su Jiaojiao wouldn't want it. She couldn't understand the property certificates and the like, but it was true that Su Jiaojiao's name was on them.
If their family disagrees, it will be troublesome again.
"Auntie, don't worry. Wang Hua and I handled all the relevant procedures. No one else is involved." Ding Linyu already knew this, but she didn't say it to keep it secret and give Su Jiaojiao a surprise. "Also, the initial investment money came from Jiaojiao's bank account, and it was President Lu who made up for it later."
Wang Hua said that the land for the film and television city was originally bought by Su Jiaojiao, and now its market value has doubled.
This means that Lu Jingyou earned 10 million without doing anything, so it is natural for him to give 5 million in fixed assets to Su Jiaojiao.
Lu Jingyou also said that putting the money under Su Jiaojiao's name as her pre-marital property would give her enough sense of security.
Lu Jingyou and Su Jiaojiao are different from ordinary couples. They have cooperated and been tied to each other in their careers and have a common interest.
Lin Manli was surprised when she heard that Mrs. Lu wanted to give Su Jiaojiao a betrothal gift of 100,000 yuan. It was too much. She called Lu Jingyou and said, "Your grandmother is getting old and confused. She just wants to use the betrothal gift to increase the value of the Lu family. Even if 10,010 yuan is a little low, just add a little more. 100,000 yuan is too much."
"Mom, I can just discuss this with grandma." Lu Jingyou said that he would solve the problem, but Grandma Lu didn't listen at all and insisted that his parents pay for it.
