Chapter 679 The property is returned to its original owner
Looking at the children's cute little faces, Tan Chen's heart melted.
He silently vowed that he must work harder to create a better life for his children and wife.
When Shang Lifeng saw his son-in-law coming back, he didn't rush to the restaurant. Instead, he immediately ran to the kitchen and made some delicious breakfasts.
Except for Shaoan who lives in school, all the family members are here.
The whole family sat around a table happily.
Old Lady Shang asked with concern, "Tan Chen, it must be very hard in Pengcheng, right?"
"I'm fine, grandma. I was just in charge of giving orders over there. I didn't do much, I was just busy."
When she heard her grandmother mention Tan Chen's situation in Pengcheng, she had asked some questions when they were talking on the phone. However, many details were not convenient to talk about over the phone, so she just mentioned it in passing.
Tan Chen came back last night, and the two of them were so busy going to Yunxiao together that she didn't have the chance to ask.
Following up on what Grandma said, he asked, "Is the project all finished?"
Tan Chen nodded, took out a passbook from his pocket and handed it to Shang Ruoting.
"The work is finished, and the payment has been settled. The money you gave me in the passbook remains untouched, along with the profit I made this time. A total of 780,000 yuan."
Shang Ruoting opened the passbook, and the number inside was indeed 780,000. She silently put the passbook into the space, looking very calm, making it seem to others that she had known that Tan Chen could make so much money, and was not as surprised or unexpected as she had imagined.
However, others could not remain so calm.
Shang Lifeng was shocked and asked, "Tan Chen, did you make so much money from your project in Pengcheng?"
I thought my restaurant's monthly income of around 20,000 yuan was already quite a lot, but my son-in-law, a young man in his twenties, actually made so much in such a short time...
Tan Chen smiled and said to Shang Lifeng, "Dad, I will make more money in the future so that you can live a better life."
Shang Lifeng nodded. "You are ambitious, unlike me. Without Ruoting's support, I wouldn't even dare to think about opening a restaurant. I might just end up working for a living my whole life."
Chen Shurong also agreed: "Yes, my clothing store is doing very well now, and this is also thanks to Ruoting and Tan Chen. If it weren't for you, Mom would never have thought of opening a clothing store. I'm afraid I would have been helping out at your father's restaurant."
Having said that, Shang Lifeng and Chen Shurong looked at each other, and then Chen Shurong turned and entered the room.
Soon, she handed a stack of money to Shang Ruoting.
"Tingting, Tan Chen, here's 20,000 yuan. We agreed that the hotel house was our gift to Ruoting. Now that your father and I have made some money, we'll give you the entire portion of the payment you made. This way, the house will officially become your dowry."
Seeing his daughter staring blankly at the money, Shang Lifeng added, "The extra money is the advance payment I paid to Tan Chen for the hotel renovation. I'll return it to you."
Shang Ruoting thought about it for a while and generously put the money away.
She pretended to go back to the room to put the money away, but in fact she was taking out the hotel room certificate from the space.
Shang Ruoting returned to the dining table and handed the house certificate to Shang Lifeng and his wife.
"Dad, when I went to the Real Estate Bureau to handle the shop name change, I directly wrote your name on it. Now it's back to its original owner."
I originally wanted to give my daughter and son-in-law a surprise, but unexpectedly, my daughter's behavior scared them.
Shang Lifeng and Chen Shurong looked at the names on the property certificate, both of them feeling a little overwhelmed.
It was clearly a dowry for my daughter, so how did it become mine?
"Tingting...what on earth is going on?"
Shang Lifeng was completely confused.
Seeing this, Tan Chen explained, "Dad, when you bought that shop, Ruoting was worried that you wouldn't want to borrow money from us, so she came up with this idea. We have plenty of money to spend, and we've already bought several courtyard houses in the capital. You can keep this house for yourselves."
Chen Shurong stood up, took the house certificate and stuffed it into Shang Ruoting's hand: "Tingting, this house is yours if it's said to be yours. Find a time someday and have your father and you go to the real estate office to change the name."
Shang Ruoting had never thought about owning this house, so she pushed the house certificate back again.
The few of them kept arguing like this for a long time, and it was only with a word from Old Lady Shang that the situation ended.
"Lifeng, Shurong, stop trying to shirk responsibility with Tingting. She's a determined girl. Since she's already signed her name as Lifeng, you can keep the title deed. If you want to earn money for your daughter, there are plenty of other ways to do it. This house isn't a big deal."
Seeing their mother say this, Shang Lifeng and Chen Shurong looked at each other helplessly before taking the house certificate in their hands.
