Chapter 91 It’s better to tell Mo Jizong exactly as it is

"We both work in the capital, so we must buy a house there. No matter what, we have to save up the money for the down payment now, right?" Du Jin sighed, "The commission from every business deal is very important to me."

Du Jin was pitiful, trying to use a self-torture tactic to impress Su Jinshi, "Jinshi, you...just think of it as helping an old classmate of mine and meeting Mo Jizong, okay?"

"When you meet, can you help your old classmate and say some sweet words to him to make him happy and let him know that you have accomplished this?" Su Jinshi asked back with a hint of sarcasm.

Du Jinze was silent for a few seconds before he said, "I know this is a bit difficult for you and not very fair to you. If it is really as you said, then Mo Jizong also has his faults, and there is no reason to ask you to apologize."

Su Jinshi really wanted to say to him, So you know that too.

Du Jinze added: "But I have no other choice. Jinshi, can you help me?"

"None of us who work hard in the capital have your conditions. Your family is from the capital, so you don't have to worry about housing. You're a girl, so you don't need to buy a house when you get married. You're renting a large flat outside now. I don't know how much you earn, but it must be a lot."

"I can't compare with you. My family lives in a third-tier city. My parents can't afford to buy me a house in the capital, so I have to rely on myself. I'm a salesperson. If I can negotiate a deal, I can get a commission, and my income can be considered good. But if I can't, I've worked for nothing. I'm still renting a one-bedroom apartment outside the Fifth Ring Road..."

Su Jinshi pursed her lips tightly. Why did she dislike what Du Jinze said? "First, although I am from the capital, I am just an ordinary dual-income family. My parents have ordinary jobs and ordinary incomes, and the house was also left by the elderly."

The community is not new, but it is well managed and is within the Third Ring Road. Its location in today's imperial capital can be considered the best of the best.

Su Jinshi's current house is near the Fourth Ring Road, and she wants to move her parents to a house with a better neighborhood.

However, according to the current housing prices in the capital, even if you sell your parents' current house and want to move to a better one, it is impossible to find one in a similar location and you can only move further away.

Su Jinshi's parents are more accustomed to their current living environment.

It's convenient everywhere, and they're all familiar old neighbors.

The two elders feel that although the community is not new, the management is still quite good.

Besides, it is enough for two people to live here, so why bother?

The two elders meant that when they passed away in the future, they would leave the house to Su Jinshi, and he would deal with it as he pleased.

"I'm renting my current house, but I can afford the rent entirely because of my own ability, not relying on others. Don't make it sound like I took some shortcuts." Su Jinshi said coldly, "With my parents' income, they can't afford my expenses in the capital, and they can't help me buy a house. If I want to buy one, it's all based on my own ability."

"Second, what's wrong with me being a girl? Whether a girl buys a house has nothing to do with whether she gets married or not. I can buy one if I want to, and I won't if I don't want to. Don't say that girls who get married are taking advantage. Do you think you have too much pressure to get married and you still need to buy a house? Then should the child your girlfriend has have your last name? If you paid the down payment, do you share the loan after marriage? If it's a house you share, do you write your girlfriend's name?"

If he doesn't write it, his girlfriend's efforts will be in vain. Will the child still take his surname after birth?

"Women contribute far more than men after marriage, so don't talk to me about men and women." Su Jinshi said coldly.

Shen Shilang listened silently on the other end.

In their world, women get married, take care of their husbands and children, men are the breadwinners outside the home, and women are the homemakers.

There is nothing wrong with that, the main thing is that both parties perform their respective duties.

But in Su Jinshi's world, women obviously have to work, share household expenses, and raise children, which is obviously more unfair to women.

Although Du Jinze did not say it explicitly, his words inadvertently revealed that he did feel that his situation seemed to be more difficult.

But Su Jinshi was right, it was obviously more difficult for women.

"That's not what I meant!" Du Jinze didn't know if Su Jinshi had hit upon his thoughts, he became a little anxious and his tone became urgent.

After he finished speaking, he realized that his tone was wrong, and quickly slowed down his tone and said, "Maybe what I said was a little inappropriate and you misunderstood."

Du Jin smiled and said, "You are a literary creator, so you have a more accurate grasp of language. Please understand me."

Su Jinshi: “…”

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

"Jinshi, we have been classmates for so many years, and we are both in the imperial capital. You know my situation well anyway. Can you help me just this once?" Du Jin said, "I am under a lot of pressure right now, and I really need to negotiate the order from Mo Jizong Company. Can you help me just this once? Just for the sake of our old classmate."

"Du Jinze." Su Jinshi sighed and said, "Since we are old classmates, why are you making things so difficult for me? To help you, you want me to bow down to Mo Jizong? Then the next time Mo Jizong annoys me, I will have to bow down to him again to help you? What did I do wrong to deserve such disgust?"

"You're using our old classmate relationship to blackmail me, so why don't you talk to Mo Jizong about this?" Su Jinshi said sarcastically, "We're all classmates, why does he have to put conditions on his help? He'll only help you if you meet his requirements and satisfy his hopes. If you don't do it, he won't help you, so what about the friendship between classmates?"

"On the contrary, I don't have any requirements from you, but you want me to sacrifice myself to help you." Su Jinshi sneered, "Du Jinze, that doesn't make sense. You want me to think about you, so you should think about me too."

"Since the cooperation between Mo Jizong and you is based on mutual needs, why do you want me to help you without any requirements or complaints when it comes to me?" Su Jinshi did not fall into Du Jinze's trap.

"If you fail to invite me to dinner with Mo Jizong and apologize to him, he won't help you. Is there still any friendship between classmates? You are both working hard in the capital, his family is also from the capital, his job is better than yours, and his income is higher than yours, why doesn't he think about you?"

"Why don't you tell Mo Jizong exactly what you said to me?" Su Jinshi said, "Don't let him turn our friendship into an exchange of interests, and then treat you as a favor and make you serve him like a follower."

Du Jinze: "..."
