Chapter 396 Where is Mr. Dong?

Xiaolin and I slowly talked about the past. We talked about how hard life was back then. Xiaolin was very discerning, and how he chose me after graduating from university. We had struggled all the way, and it hadn't been easy for either of us. Then he said:

"You received the money three times in total, a total of 10 million US dollars, right?"

"Um."

"I thought about it, let's split it in half."

She immediately climbed up from my arms, leaned against the headboard, and asked in surprise, "Give me five million?"

"Um."

Seeing that I agreed so readily, she became suspicious: "Who will pay for the house and car, and for the money for my family?"

"When the money comes, we'll split it."

"Wan Shanhong, do you have someone else out there? You've planned everything step by step."

“How did I plan everything?”

She pointed her finger and said, "The money you earn, even though it's yours, is our joint property after we get married. You give me half. We'll split the cost of buying a house or a car.

If you want a divorce, give me the house and I'll pay you half of the price. Same thing for the car. Isn't this making preparations in advance?"

"My father once told me that too much money is a disaster. If you didn't have money, you wouldn't have such a ridiculous idea. Now that you have money, you suspect that I, Wan Shanhong, want to divorce you.

If I, Wan Shanhong, were to divorce you, would I tell you I had 10 million? Would I not ask my father to open an account and then tell you I only made one million dollars?

She said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, money is a good thing, but to be honest, it's not a good thing either.

Ever since you told me there would be 10 million dollars, I've been having some crazy thoughts these past few months. I've been thinking about all sorts of bad things."

"Think on the bright side, silly."

She suddenly asked, "You also want to thank Mr. Dong. Is this money also shared equally?"

"right."

"How much should I give him?"

"Five million."

"Dollar?"

"Um."

Her mouth opened wide, as if she was about to eat me, a fool. She stared at me with a puzzled look. After a moment, she said, "It's not that I disagree, but I think he's given too much."

"Without Mr. Dong's recipe, I wouldn't make a cent. How could I give my parents, your parents, some money? I wouldn't even be able to buy a house or a car, is that right?"

She remained silent for a long time.

"My mother always told me not to put money in my pocket and be reluctant to take it out. Even if we don't have a penny, won't we still have to live?"

Xiao Lin was a little disappointed and kept turning his head to look at the door. After a long while, he turned back and asked, "Actually, we only have 5 million left?"

"Yes. But it's not a small amount either. Over 30 million RMB. Housing prices in Upstate are not high, and you can buy a detached villa for over 10 million RMB."

"A townhouse, huh?"

"A townhouse would be fine too, with three floors, my parents would live on one floor and we would live on the other floor. How many people could afford such a house on their own?

"A family of three generations living together. If you hire a nanny, you'll be a wealthy lady."

Her face brightened a little.

I continued, "Let's buy another car worth a few million. Okay? There's no need to spend any more. We both have 10 million in savings each. 10 million in a fixed deposit. The annual interest is over 170,000. That's enough for your pocket money, right?"

Besides, I also have 170,000 yuan in interest, plus my annual salary and other income. That makes 2 million yuan a year. How much more do you want?"

A smile gradually appeared on her face again.

I glanced at her and joked, "Your winter melon face has turned into an eggplant face."

She pinched me hard.

"If you have money, you should be well-mannered and behave dignifiedly. Why are you still pinching your husband like an uncultured person?"

She pinched me again, and I wanted to scream, but I was afraid to startle my mother, who doted on her son the most. She would definitely come and knock on the door.

"Please don't pinch me like that. I know you appear calm on the surface, but you're still reluctant inside. I've made it clear to you. We can still live without a penny.

Are you destined me to only make money once? Can't you look at the problem from a developmental perspective? I might be able to make 10 million, 20 million in the future?"

She rolled her eyes at me and said, "You don't understand romance. You can't pinch me in bed, but how can you pinch me in front of your mother?"

It seems that she has basically accepted reality.

At this point, I was about to give her a little sweetener, so I said, "How about this? I'll give you 3 million. Mr. Dong gets 5 million, and I only want 2 million.

"I don't want you to pay for the house, the car, my home, your home, my master's home, and any other expenses that require money. Is that okay?"

She counted her fingers and asked, "Then you don't have much money."

"I still have some money."

"Ah? What kind of money?"

"Cruz will personally thank me and transfer some money to me on New Year's Eve. He didn't say how much, but it's probably a few hundred thousand. I'll keep the money. What do you say?"

"Why did I call you on New Year's Eve?"

"They have a sense of humor, unlike you who only know how to pinch me. Although they don't celebrate the Spring Festival, they still respect Chinese customs. They think the New Year's Eve payment is symbolic, celebrating my perfect victory in the year."

"I have no objection. No matter how much it is, it belongs to you. After all, it's your credit." Kobayashi said.

"That's right. You didn't expect that you would find such an excellent and profitable husband, did you?"

"Self-conscious, don't you still rely on your master and Mr. Dong?"

I burst out laughing. "You're slapping yourself in the face. First you disagreed with giving so much to Mr. Dong, and now you're saying I'm completely dependent on them."

Women are like this. If they can't win an argument, they resort to violence. She pounced on me and tried to strangle me.

I said, "Xiao Lin, don't, don't."

She ignored me and I grabbed her hands.

She opened her mouth to bite me.

I shouted loudly: "You are crazy. If you can't win, then fight."

After a heart-to-heart talk, Xiaolin finally accepted my assignment plan. I also told her about my plan to go to Master's house tomorrow.

She asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to go?"

"I had a feeling there was going to be an epidemic."

"Winter colds are prevalent every year. No one can change that."

I couldn't come to a conclusion right now. Because I'd watched Zeng Shiqiang's videos and speculated about the Gengzi Year in history, I had a kind of sixth feeling.

For a moment, I couldn’t explain it to Xiaolin.

I said, "Whenever I want to do something, I always want to do it right away. When I want to see Master, the moment the thought comes to my mind, I want to go right away."

"How much money are you going to give him?"

"His son filed for bankruptcy, and all the debts have been repaid and cleared. Master's health is not as good as before after the blow. I want to give him one million."

This time, Xiaolin didn't object at all. She said, "Then I'll go with you to withdraw the money tomorrow morning. Giving cash will make it more ceremonial."

"Okay. Let's go to sleep then."

Later that night, I had a dream. I dreamt I saw Mr. Dong and was talking to him when he suddenly disappeared. I was startled and woke up, unable to fall asleep again.

Where is Mr. Dong?

How can I find him?

Another meaning of going to Master is that I want to get more information about Shi Yanfeng, so it will be easier to find Shi Yanfeng and Mr. Dong.

Shi Yanfeng was also hard to find. When he wasn't contacting me, his phone was always turned off. Neither of us had WeChat.

There are indeed some people in this world who live in another world. Although they are on Earth, they seem to be detached from this world and come and go without a trace.
